(c) Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, (i) references to agreements (including this Agreement) and other contractual instruments shall be deemed to include all subsequent amendments, restatements, and other modifications thereto, but only to the extent such amendments, restatements, and other modifications are not prohibited by the terms of any Loan Document, and (ii) references to any statute or regulation are to be construed as including all statutory and regulatory provisions consolidating, amending, replacing, supplementing, or interpreting the statute or regulation.

(d) The captions and headings of this Agreement and other Loan Documents are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the interpretation of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(e) This Agreement and the other Loan Documents may use several different limitations, tests, or measurements to regulate the same or similar matters. All such limitations, tests, and measurements are cumulative and shall each be performed in accordance with their terms.

(f) For purposes of Section 11.1, a breach of a financial covenant contained in Section 8.21 shall be deemed to have occurred as of any date of determination thereof by either of the Agents or as of the last day of any specified measuring period, regardless of when the Financial Statements reflecting such breach are delivered to either of the Agents.

(g) Certain amendments have been made to the defined terms “GE Intercreditor Agreement”, “Incremental Commitment Agreements” and “Lender” to preserve certain rights of the Revolving Lenders under the First Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement as in effect immediately prior to the effectiveness of the amendment and restatement thereof pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 1.4 No Strict Construction. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are the result of negotiations among, and have been reviewed by counsel to, each Agent, each Lender, and the Obligated Parties and are the products of all parties. Accordingly, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be construed against the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lenders, or the Obligated Parties merely because of their respective involvement in their preparation.

Section 1.5 No Novation. It is the intent of the parties hereto that this Agreement does not constitute a novation of the rights, obligations and liabilities of the respective parties (including the Obligations) existing under the First Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement or evidence payment of all or any of such obligations and liabilities, and such rights, obligations and liabilities shall continue and remain outstanding under the terms and conditions of, and as amended and restated by, this Agreement, and that this Agreement amends and restates

in its entirety the First Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing (i) all Revolving Loans outstanding under the First Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement shall on the Closing Date become Revolving Loans hereunder, (ii) all Letters of Credit under the First Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement shall on the Closing Date become Letters of Credit hereunder and (iii) all other Obligations outstanding under the First Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement shall on the Closing Date be Obligations under this Agreement. Each of the Borrowers and the other Obligated Parties hereby ratifies and confirms its grant of security interests and Liens in the Collateral (including, without limitation, any and all Collateral granted under the Original Loan and Security Agreement, the First Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement and the other Loan Documents) in which it has rights and confirms and agrees that such Collateral secures any and all of the Obligations, including, without limitation, the Revolving Loans.

The Borrowers acknowledge and agree that as of the close of business on January 7, 2010, the Aggregate Revolver Outstandings under and as defined in the First Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (excluding the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit under the First Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement) is $317,482,878.43. As of the date hereof, none of the Obligated Parties or any of their respective Affiliates has offset rights, counterclaims or defenses of any kind against any of their obligations, indebtedness or liabilities under the First Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement. As of the date hereof immediately prior to the amendment and restatement of the First Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement contemplated herein, there exists no Default or Event of Default under and as defined in the First Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement. The Obligated Parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally release the Agents and the other Credit Providers from any and all actions, causes of action, damages, judgments, executions and claims arising on or prior to the Closing Date under or with respect to the First Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents (as defined in the First Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement) or any of the transactions contemplated thereby.

ARTICLE 2

LOANS AND LETTERS OF CREDIT

Section 2.1 Credit Facility. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Lenders agree to make available a credit facility for use by any one or more of the Borrowers from time to time during the term of this Agreement (the “Credit Facility”). The Credit Facility shall be composed of a revolving credit facility consisting of Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit as described in Section 2.2 and Section 2.4 and a term loan facility consisting of Term Loans as described in Section 2.3.

Section 2.2 Revolving Loans.

(a) Amounts. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Revolving Lender severally, but not jointly, agrees, upon a Borrower’s request from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Original Closing Date to the Revolving Termination Date, to make revolving loans (the “Revolving Loans”) to the

Borrowers in amounts not to exceed such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Credit Commitments. The Lenders, however, in their unanimous discretion, may elect to make Revolving Loans that would cause the Aggregate Revolver Outstandings to exceed the Borrowing Base on one or more occasions, but if they do so, neither the Agents nor the Lenders shall be deemed thereby to have changed the limits of the Borrowing Base or to be obligated to exceed such limits on any other occasion. If any requested Revolving Loan exceeds the Unused Availability then the Revolving Lenders may refuse to make or may otherwise restrict the making of such Revolving Loan, subject to the authority of the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, to make Agent Advances pursuant to the terms of Section 2.2(j).

(b) [Intentionally Omitted.]

(c) Procedure for Borrowing.

(i) Each Borrowing of Revolving Loans shall be made upon a Borrower’s irrevocable written notice delivered to the Administrative Agent, in the form of a notice of borrowing in the form of Exhibit D or such other form as may be acceptable to the Agents in their sole discretion (any such notice being referred to herein as a “Notice of Borrowing”), which must be received by the Administrative Agent prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York time) (y) three Business Days prior to the requested Funding Date, in the case of LIBOR Rate Revolving Loans or (z) on the requested Funding Date, in the case of Base Rate Revolving Loans, specifying:

(A) the amount of the Borrowing, which in the case of LIBOR Rate Revolving Loans shall be in an amount that is not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) or an integral multiple of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) in excess thereof;

(B) the requested Funding Date, which must be a Business Day;

(C) whether the Revolving Loans requested are to be Base Rate Revolving Loans or LIBOR Rate Revolving Loans; provided that if such Borrower fails to specify whether any Revolving Loans are to be Base Rate Revolving Loans or LIBOR Rate Revolving Loans, such request shall be deemed a request for Base Rate Revolving Loans;

(D) if the requested Revolving Loans are to be LIBOR Rate Revolving Loans, the duration of the Interest Period; provided that if such Borrower fails to select the duration of the Interest Period with respect to any requested LIBOR Rate Revolving Loans, such Borrower shall be deemed to have requested such Revolving Loans be made as LIBOR Rate Revolving Loans with an Interest Period of one month in duration; and

(E) whether the proceeds of such Borrowing are to be deposited to the Funding Account or sent by wire transfer to a third party,

in which case such Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent with written wire transfer instructions satisfactory to the Administrative Agent;

provided that with respect to the Borrowing to be made on the Original Closing Date, such Borrowing will consist of Base Rate Revolving Loans only.

(ii) With respect to any request for Base Rate Revolving Loans, in lieu of delivering a Notice of Borrowing, a Borrower may give the Administrative Agent telephonic notice of such request for advances to the Funding Account not later than the required time specified in clause (i) preceding. The Administrative Agent at all times shall be entitled to rely on such telephonic notice in making any such Revolving Loans, regardless of whether any written confirmation is received by it.

(iii) Whenever checks or other items are presented to BofA for payment against the Funding Account or any other Deposit Account maintained by a Borrower with BofA in an amount greater than the then available balance in the Funding Account or such other Deposit Account, such presentation may, at the election of the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion, be deemed to be a request by the Borrowers for a Base Rate Revolving Loan on the date of such presentation in an amount sufficient to cover all such items presented in the Funding Account or such other Deposit Account on such date.

(iv) At the election of either of the Agents or the Majority Revolving Lenders, the Borrowers shall have no right to request LIBOR Rate Revolving Loans during the existence of any Default or Event of Default.

(d) Disbursement. On or prior to the Closing Date, the Borrowers shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent a notice setting forth the deposit account maintained with BofA (the “Funding Account”) to which the Administrative Agent is authorized by the Borrowers to transfer the proceeds of the Revolving Loans requested hereunder. Each of the Borrowers agrees that the Funding Account may be established in the name of any other Borrower, and hereby agrees that the Funding Account has been established for the benefit of all of the Borrowers for receipt of the proceeds of Revolving Loans hereunder. Each Borrower hereby appoints each other Borrower as its agent with respect to receipt of the proceeds of Revolving Loans in the Funding Account as contemplated herein. The Borrowers may designate a replacement Funding Account from time to time by written notice to the Administrative Agent. Any designation by the Borrowers of the Funding Account must be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Reliance Upon Authority; No Liability. The Administrative Agent is entitled to rely conclusively on any individual’s request for Revolving Loans on behalf of a Borrower, as long as the proceeds thereof are to be transferred to the Funding Account or according to such other instructions as may be provided to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.2(c)(i)(E). The Administrative Agent has no duty to verify the identity of any individual representing himself or herself as a person authorized by any

Borrower to make such requests on its behalf. The Administrative Agent shall not incur any liability to the Borrowers as a result of acting upon any notice referred to in Section 2.2(c) or Section 2.2(d) which the Administrative Agent reasonably believes to have been given by an officer or other person duly authorized by a Borrower to request Revolving Loans on its behalf or for otherwise acting under this Section 2.2. The crediting of Revolving Loans to the Funding Account or wire transfer to such Person as a Borrower shall direct shall conclusively establish the obligation of the Borrowers to repay such Revolving Loans as provided herein.

(f) Notice Irrevocable. Any Notice of Borrowing (or telephonic notice in lieu thereof) made pursuant to Section 2.2(c) shall be irrevocable and the Borrowers shall be bound to borrow the funds requested therein in accordance therewith.

(g) Administrative Agent’s Election. Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Borrowing (or telephonic notice in lieu thereof), the Administrative Agent shall elect in its sole discretion to have the terms of Section 2.2(h), Section 2.2(i), or Section 2.2(j) apply to such requested Borrowing. If BofA declines in its sole discretion to make a Non-Ratable Loan pursuant to Section 2.2(i), the terms of Section 2.2(h) shall apply to the requested Borrowing unless such requested Borrowing is to be made by the Administrative Agent as an Agent Advance pursuant to Section 2.2(j).

(h) Making of Revolving Loans. If the Administrative Agent elects to have the terms of this Section 2.2(h) apply to a requested Borrowing, then promptly after receipt of a Notice of Borrowing or telephonic notice in lieu thereof, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Revolving Lenders by telecopy, telephone, or e-mail of the requested Borrowing. Each Revolving Lender shall transfer its Pro Rata Share of the requested Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, in immediately available funds, to the account from time to time designated by the Administrative Agent not later than 3:30 p.m. (New York time) on the applicable Funding Date. After receipt by the Administrative Agent of all proceeds of such requested Borrowing, it shall make the proceeds of such requested Borrowing available to the applicable Borrower on the applicable Funding Date by transferring same day funds to the Funding Account or as otherwise requested by such Borrower in accordance with Section 2.2(c)(i)(E). Unless the Revolving Lenders in their unanimous discretion consent otherwise, no Borrowing under this clause (h) shall be permitted if the requested Borrowing exceeds the Unused Availability on the applicable Funding Date prior to giving effect to such requested Borrowing.

(i) Making of Non-Ratable Loans. If the Administrative Agent elects, with the consent of BofA, in its capacity as a Revolving Lender, to have the terms of this Section 2.2(i) apply to a requested Borrowing, BofA shall make a Revolving Loan in the amount of such requested Borrowing available to the Borrowers on the applicable Funding Date by transferring same day funds to the Funding Account or as otherwise requested by the applicable Borrower in accordance with Section 2.2(c)(i)(E). Each Revolving Loan made solely by BofA pursuant to this Section 2.2(i) is referred to hereinafter as a “Non-Ratable Loan,” and such Revolving Loans are collectively referred to as the “Non-Ratable Loans.” Each Non-Ratable Loan shall be subject to all the terms

and conditions applicable to other Revolving Loans except that all payments of principal and interest thereon shall be payable to BofA solely for its own account. The aggregate amount of Non-Ratable Loans outstanding at any time shall not exceed $10,000,000. The Administrative Agent shall not request BofA to make any Non-Ratable Loan if (A) the Administrative Agent has received written notice from any Revolving Lender that one or more of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article 9 will not be satisfied on the requested Funding Date for the applicable Borrowing or (B) the Administrative Agent has actual knowledge (based solely on the Borrowing Base Certificate most recently delivered to it or written notice from any Revolving Lender thereof) that the requested Borrowing exceeds the Unused Availability on the applicable Funding Date prior to giving effect to such requested Borrowing. The Non-Ratable Loans shall be secured by the Agent’s Liens in and to the Collateral and shall constitute Base Rate Revolving Loans and Obligations hereunder.

(j) Agent Advances. Subject to the limitations set forth below, the Administrative Agent is authorized by the Borrowers and the Lenders, from time to time in its sole discretion in such capacity, after the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default or at any time that any of the other conditions precedent set forth in Article 9 have not been satisfied, to make Base Rate Revolving Loans to the Borrowers or any Borrower on behalf of the Revolving Lenders in an aggregate amount outstanding at any time not to exceed $10,000,000 which the Administrative Agent, in its reasonable business judgment, deems necessary or desirable (i) to preserve or protect the Collateral, or any portion thereof, (ii) to enhance the likelihood of, or maximize the amount of, repayment of the Loans and other Obligations (including through the Borrowers using any proceeds of such Revolving Loans to pay payroll and associated tax obligations), or (iii) to pay any other amount chargeable to the Borrowers pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including costs, fees, and expenses as described in Section 15.7 (any of such advances are herein referred to as “Agent Advances”); provided that after giving effect to the making of any Agent Advance, the Aggregate Revolver Outstandings shall not exceed the Maximum Revolver Amount. The Majority Revolving Lenders may at any time revoke the authorization of the Administrative Agent to make Agent Advances. Any such revocation must be in writing and shall become effective prospectively upon the receipt by the Administrative Agent thereof. The Agent Advances shall be secured by the Agent’s Liens in and to the Collateral and shall constitute Base Rate Revolving Loans and Obligations hereunder.

Section 2.3 Term Loans.

(a) Amounts of Term Loans. Each Term Lender severally agrees to make a term loan (any such term loan being referred to as a “Term Loan” and such term loans being referred to collectively as the “Term Loans”) to the Borrowers on the Closing Date, upon the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Article 9, in an amount equal to such Term Lender’s Term Loan Commitment. A portion of the Term Loan of each Term Lender to be made on the Closing Date shall be made as new funds to the Borrowers in the amount set forth beside such Term Lender’s name under the heading “New Term Loan Funding Amount” on Schedule 1.1(A) (such amount for any Term Lender, its “New Term Loan Funding Amount”), with the remaining portion of the Term

Loan of such Term Lender to be made on the Closing Date (such portion for any Term Lender, its “Exchanged Term Loan Amount”) to be deemed made as an exchange for cancellation of certain of the Second Lien Debt held by such Term Lender immediately prior to such Borrowing (the amount of such Second Lien Debt of any Term Lender to be so cancelled to be equal to such Term Lender’s Exchanged Term Loan Amount multiplied by 4/3).

(b) Making of Term Loans. Each Term Lender shall make the amount of such Term Lender’s New Term Loan Funding Amount available to the Administrative Agent in same day funds, to the Administrative Agent’s designated account, not later than 12:00 noon (New York time) on the Closing Date. After the Administrative Agent’s receipt of the New Term Loan Funding Amounts of all the Term Lenders, upon satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Article 9, the Administrative Agent shall make such amounts available to the Borrowers on such Funding Date by transferring same day funds equal to the aggregate New Term Loan Funding Amounts received by the Administrative Agent to a Clearing Account designated in writing by the Borrowers or as the Borrowers shall otherwise instruct in writing.

(c) Term Loan Notes. The Borrowers shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent on behalf of each Term Lender, on the Closing Date, a promissory note, substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto and made a part hereof (such promissory notes, together with any new promissory notes issued pursuant to Section 13.2 upon the assignment of any portion of any Term Lender’s Term Loan, being hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Term Loan Notes” and each of such promissory notes being hereinafter referred to individually as a “Term Loan Note”). The Term Loan Notes shall evidence each Term Lender’s Term Loan, in an original principal amount equal to that Term Lender’s Term Loan Commitment and with other appropriate insertions. Each Term Loan Note shall be dated the Closing Date and be stated to mature on the Stated Term Loan Termination Date. The Borrowers shall repay the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loans, plus all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, on the Term Loan Termination Date. Payments or prepayments of the Term Loans may not be reborrowed. The liability of the Borrowers with respect to the Term Loans shall be joint and several.

Section 2.4 Letters of Credit.

(a) Agreement to Cause to Issue. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Agents agree to cause the Letter of Credit Issuer to issue for the account of any of the Borrowers (whether one or more) one or more commercial/documentary and standby letters of credit (each a “Letter of Credit” and collectively, the “Letters of Credit”) from time to time prior to the Revolving Termination Date.

(b) Amounts; Outside Expiration Date. The Agents shall not cause to be issued any Letter of Credit at any time if: (i) the maximum face amount of the requested Letter of Credit is greater than the Unused Letter of Credit Subfacility at such time; (ii) the maximum undrawn amount of the requested Letter of Credit and all commissions, fees, and charges due from such Borrower in connection with the opening thereof

exceeds the Unused Availability prior to giving effect to issuance of such requested Letter of Credit; (iii) such Letter of Credit has an expiration date later than 30 days prior to the Stated Revolving Termination Date; or (iv) such Letter of Credit has an expiration date later than twelve calendar months from the date of issuance for standby letters of credit and six calendar months from the date of issuance for commercial/documentary letters of credit, provided that any Letter of Credit issued hereunder may, subject to this clause (iv) and the other provisions of this Section 2.4, include an “evergreen” or automatic renewal provision of the type referenced in Section 2.4(d)(iii) without contravening the requirement contained in this Section 2.4(b).

(c) Other Conditions. In addition to being subject to the satisfaction of the applicable conditions precedent contained in Article 9, the obligation of the Agents to cause any Letter of Credit to be issued is subject to the following conditions precedent having been satisfied in a manner satisfactory to the Agents and the Letter of Credit Issuer:

(i) the Borrowers shall have delivered to the Letter of Credit Issuer, at such times and in such manner as the Letter of Credit Issuer may prescribe, an application in form and substance satisfactory to the Letter of Credit Issuer and reasonably satisfactory to each Agent for the issuance of the Letter of Credit and such other documents as may be required pursuant to the terms thereof, and the form, terms, and purpose of the proposed Letter of Credit shall be reasonably satisfactory to each Agent and the Letter of Credit Issuer (provided that in the event any term of such application or any other document is inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement and the Letter of Credit Issuer is either the same Person as an Agent or any Revolving Lender, then the terms of this Agreement shall be controlling); and

(ii) as of the date of issuance, no order of any court, arbitrator, or Governmental Authority shall purport by its terms to enjoin or restrain money center banks generally from issuing letters of credit of the type and in the amount of the proposed Letter of Credit, and no law, rule, or regulation applicable to money center banks generally and no request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over money center banks generally shall prohibit, or request that the Letter of Credit Issuer refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or the issuance of such Letter of Credit.

(d) Issuance of Letters of Credit.

(i) Request for Issuance. Any Borrower that wishes to cause the issuance of a Letter of Credit shall notify each Agent and the Letter of Credit Issuer of such request for issuance at least three Business Days prior to the proposed issuance date. Such notice shall be irrevocable and must specify the original face amount of the Letter of Credit requested, the Business Day of issuance of such requested Letter of Credit, whether such Letter of Credit may be drawn in a single or in partial draws, the Business Day on which the requested

Letter of Credit is to expire, the purpose for which such Letter of Credit is to be issued, and the beneficiary of the requested Letter of Credit. The applicable Borrower shall attach to such notice the proposed form of the Letter of Credit.

(ii) Responsibilities of the Agents; Issuance. As of the Business Day immediately preceding the requested issuance date of the Letter of Credit set forth in the notice from a Borrower pursuant to Section 2.3(d)(i), the Agents shall determine (A) the amount of the Unused Letter of Credit Subfacility and (B) the Unused Availability (based solely on the Borrowing Base Certificate most recently delivered to the Agents). If the face amount of the requested Letter of Credit is not greater than the Unused Letter of Credit Subfacility (prior to giving effect to issuance of such requested Letter of Credit) and the amount of such requested Letter of Credit and all commissions, fees, and charges due from the Borrower in connection with the opening thereof do not exceed the Unused Availability (prior to giving effect to issuance of such requested Letter of Credit and based solely on the Borrowing Base Certificate most recently delivered to the Agents), the Agents shall cause the Letter of Credit Issuer to issue the requested Letter of Credit on the requested issuance date if the other conditions hereof and of the application for such requested Letter of Credit are met.

(iii) Extensions and Amendments. The Agents shall not be obligated to cause the Letter of Credit Issuer to extend, renew, or amend any Letter of Credit issued pursuant hereto unless the requirements of this Section 2.4 are met as though a new Letter of Credit were being requested and issued. With respect to any Letter of Credit that contains any “evergreen” or automatic renewal provision, each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to have consented to any such extension or renewal unless such Revolving Lender shall have provided to each Agent written notice that such Revolving Lender declines to consent to any such extension or renewal at least 30 days prior to the date on which the Letter of Credit Issuer is entitled to decline to extend or renew such Letter of Credit; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, if all of the requirements of this Section 2.4 are met and no Default or Event of Default exists, no Revolving Lender may decline to consent to any such extension or renewal.

(e) Payments Pursuant to Letters of Credit. The Borrowers agree to reimburse the Letter of Credit Issuer immediately for any draw under any Letter of Credit and to pay the Letter of Credit Issuer the amount of all other charges and fees payable to the Letter of Credit Issuer under or in connection with any Letter of Credit immediately when due, irrespective of any claim, setoff, defense, or other right that any Borrower may have at any time against the Letter of Credit Issuer or any other Person. Each drawing under any Letter of Credit shall constitute a request by the Borrower for whose account such Letter of Credit was issued for a Borrowing of a Base Rate Revolving Loan in the amount of such drawing. The Funding Date with respect to such Borrowing shall be the date of such drawing.

(f) Indemnification; Exoneration; Power of Attorney.

(i) Indemnification. In addition to amounts payable as elsewhere provided in this Section 2.4, each Borrower agrees to protect, indemnify, pay, and save the Revolving Lenders, the Agents, and the Letter of Credit Issuer harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, charges, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) that any Revolving Lender, either Agent, or the Letter of Credit Issuer may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of the issuance of any Letter of Credit. The foregoing indemnity shall not apply to the Letter of Credit Issuer to the extent of any wrongful honor or dishonor of a drawing against any Letter of Credit or to the extent of any gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Letter of Credit Issuer as determined in a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. The Borrowers’ obligations under this Section 2.4(f) shall survive payment of all other Obligations.

(ii) Assumption of Risk by the Borrowers. As among the Borrowers, the Revolving Lenders, the Agents, and the Letter of Credit Issuer, the Borrowers assume all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of any of the Letters of Credit by, the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Revolving Lenders, the Agents, and the Letter of Credit Issuer shall not be responsible for: (A) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness, or legal effect of any document submitted by any Person in connection with the application for and issuance of and presentation of drafts with respect to any of the Letters of Credit, even if it should 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 duly with conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit; (D) errors, omissions, interruptions, or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex, or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (E) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (F) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; (G) the misapplication by the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; (H) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of any of the Revolving Lenders, either of the Agents, or the Letter of Credit Issuer, including any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto Governmental Authority; or (I) the Letter of Credit Issuer’s honor of a draw for which the draw or any certificate fails to comply in any respect with the terms of the Letter of Credit. None of the foregoing shall affect, impair, or prevent the vesting of any rights or powers of either Agent, any Revolving Lender, or, subject to Section 2.4(f)(iv), the Letter of Credit Issuer under this Section 2.4(f).

(iii) Exoneration. Without limiting the foregoing, no action or omission whatsoever by either Agent, any Revolving Lender, or the Letter of Credit Issuer under or in connection with any of the Letters of Credit or any related matters shall result in any liability of either Agent, any Revolving Lender, or the Letter of Credit Issuer to any Borrower, or relieve any Borrower of any of its obligations hereunder to any such Person.

(iv) Rights Against the Letter of Credit Issuer. Nothing contained in this Section 2.4(f) is intended to limit any Borrower’s rights, if any, with respect to the Letter of Credit Issuer that arise as a result of the letter of credit application and related documents executed by and between such Borrower and the Letter of Credit Issuer.

(v) Account Party. Each Borrower hereby authorizes and directs the Letter of Credit Issuer to name any Borrower as the “Account Party” in any Letter of Credit and to deliver to the Agents all instruments, documents, and other writings and property received by the Letter of Credit Issuer pursuant to each such Letter of Credit, and to accept and rely upon either Agent’s instructions and agreements with respect to all matters arising in connection with each such Letter of Credit or the application therefor.

(g) Supporting Letter of Credit; Cash Collateral. If, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.4(b) and Section 12.1, any Letter of Credit is outstanding on the Revolving Termination Date, then on the Revolving Termination Date the Borrowers shall deposit with the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Agents, the Letter of Credit Issuer, and the Revolving Lenders, with respect to each such Letter of Credit then outstanding, either (i) a standby letter of credit (a “Supporting Letter of Credit”) in form and substance satisfactory to each Agent, issued by an issuer satisfactory to the Agents in their sole discretion in an amount equal to 105% of the maximum undrawn amount of such Letter of Credit, plus any fees and expenses associated with such Letter of Credit, under which Supporting Letter of Credit the Collateral Agent is entitled to draw amounts necessary to reimburse the Agents, the Letter of Credit Issuer, and the Revolving Lenders for payments to be made by either of the Agents, the Letter of Credit Issuer, and any of the Revolving Lenders under or with respect to such Letter of Credit and any fees and expenses associated with such Letter of Credit or (ii) cash (a “Supporting Cash Deposit”) in an amount equal to 105% of the maximum undrawn amount of such Letter of Credit, plus any fees and expenses associated with such Letter of Credit. Such Supporting Letter of Credit or Supporting Cash Deposit shall be held by the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Agents, the Letter of Credit Issuer, and the Revolving Lenders, as security for, and to provide for the payment of, the aggregate undrawn amount of such Letters of Credit remaining outstanding and the fees and expenses associated with such Letters of Credit.

Section 2.5 Bank Products. Any Obligated Party may obtain Bank Products from BofA or Wachovia or any of BofA’s or Wachovia’s Affiliates, or, subject to the definition of Bank Products, another Revolving Lender or any of such Revolving Lender’s Affiliates, although no Obligated Party is required to do so. To the extent Bank Products are provided by

an Affiliate of BofA, Wachovia or another Revolving Lender, the Obligated Parties agree to indemnify and hold the Agents and BofA, Wachovia or such other Revolving Lender, as applicable, harmless from any and all costs and obligations now or hereafter incurred by any of the Credit Providers which arise from any indemnity given by BofA, Wachovia or such other Revolving Lender, as applicable, to its Affiliates related to such Bank Products; provided, however, nothing contained herein is intended to limit any Obligated Party’s rights, with respect to BofA, Wachovia or such other Revolving Lender, as applicable, or its Affiliates, if any, that arise as a result of the execution of documents by and between such Obligated Party and BofA, Wachovia or such other Revolving Lender, as applicable, or its Affiliates that relate to Bank Products. The agreement contained in this Section 2.5 shall survive termination of this Agreement. Each Obligated Party acknowledges and agrees that the obtaining of Bank Products from BofA, Wachovia , any other Revolving Lender or any of their respective Affiliates (a) is in the sole and absolute discretion of BofA, Wachovia, such other Revolving Lender or such Affiliate, and (b) is subject to all rules and regulations of BofA, Wachovia, such other Revolving Lender or such Affiliate.

Section 3.1 Interest.

(a) Interest Rates. All outstanding Obligations (other than Term Loans and other Term Loan Obligations) shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof (including, to the extent permitted by law, on accrued interest thereon not paid when due) from the date made or incurred until paid in full in cash at a rate determined by reference to the Base Rate or the LIBOR Rate, as applicable, plus the Applicable Margin as set forth below, but not to exceed the Maximum Rate. All Term Loans and other Term Loan Obligations shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof (including, to the extent permitted by law, on accrued interest thereon not paid when due) from the date made or incurred until paid in full in cash at the interest rate set forth in clause (iii) below. If at any time Revolving Loans are outstanding with respect to which a Borrower has not delivered to the Administrative Agent a notice specifying the basis for determining the interest rate applicable thereto in accordance herewith, such Revolving Loans shall be Base Rate Revolving Loans and bear interest at a rate determined by reference to the Base Rate until notice to the contrary has been given to the Administrative Agent in accordance with this Agreement and such notice has become effective. Except as otherwise provided herein, the outstanding Obligations shall bear interest as follows:

(i) for all Base Rate Revolving Loans and other Obligations (other than LIBOR Rate Revolving Loans, Term Loans and other Term Loan Obligations) at a fluctuating per annum rate equal to the lesser of (A) the Base Rate, plus the Applicable Margin or (B) the Maximum Rate;

(ii) for all LIBOR Rate Revolving Loans at a per annum rate equal to the lesser of (A) the LIBOR Rate, plus the Applicable Margin or (B) the Maximum Rate; and

(iii) for all Term Loans and other Term Loan Obligations at a per annum rate equal to the lesser of (A) 16% or (B) the Maximum Rate.

Each change in the Base Rate shall be reflected in the interest rate described in clause (i) preceding as of the effective date of such change. Subject to Section 3.3, all interest charges on the Obligations shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed (which results in more interest being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year).

(b) Interest Payments. The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the applicable Lenders, accrued interest in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, as applicable.

(c) Default Rate. During the existence of any Default or Event of Default if either of the Agents or the Majority Revolving Lenders (in the case of Revolving Obligations) or the Majority Term Lenders (in the case of Term Loan Obligations) in their discretion so elect (in the case of the Majority Revolving Lenders or the Majority Term Lenders, upon written notice to the Agents), the applicable Obligations shall, subject to Section 3.3, bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the lesser of (i) the Default Rate applicable thereto or (ii) the Maximum Rate.

(d) Interest Periods. After giving effect to any Borrowing of any LIBOR Rate Revolving Loan, there may not be more than ten (10) different Interest Periods in effect hereunder.

Section 3.2 Continuation and Conversion Elections.

(a) A Borrower may upon irrevocable written notice to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 3.2(b):

(i) provided that Borrowing of LIBOR Rate Revolving Loans is permitted pursuant to Section 2.2, elect, as of any Business Day, in the case of Base Rate Revolving Loans to convert any such Base Rate Revolving Loans (or any part thereof in an amount not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000), or that is in an integral multiple of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) in excess thereof) into LIBOR Rate Revolving Loans;

(ii) provided that Borrowing of LIBOR Rate Revolving Loans is permitted pursuant to Section 2.2, elect, as of the last day of the applicable Interest Period, to continue any LIBOR Rate Revolving Loans having Interest Periods expiring on such day (or any part thereof) in an amount not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000), or that is in an integral multiple of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) in excess thereof as LIBOR Rate Revolving Loans; or

(iii) elect, as of any Business Day subject to Section 5.4, in the case of LIBOR Rate Revolving Loans to convert any such LIBOR Rate Revolving Loans (or any part thereof not being continued pursuant to clause (ii) preceding) into Base Rate Revolving Loans;

provided that if at any time the aggregate amount of LIBOR Rate Revolving Loans in respect of any Borrowing is reduced, by payment, prepayment, or conversion of part thereof to be less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000), such LIBOR Rate Revolving Loans shall automatically convert into Base Rate Revolving Loans; provided, further, that if the notice shall fail to specify the duration of the Interest Period of any LIBOR Rate Revolving Loan to result from any such continuation or conversion, such Interest Period shall be one month in duration.

(b) For any continuation or conversion pursuant to clause (a) preceding, the Borrowers shall deliver a notice of continuation/conversion in the form of Exhibit E or such other form as may be acceptable to the Agents, in their sole discretion (any such notice being referred to herein as a “Notice of Continuation/ Conversion”) to the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) at least three Business Days in advance of the Continuation/Conversion Date specifying:

(i) the proposed Continuation/Conversion Date;

(ii) the aggregate amount of such Revolving Loans to be continued or converted and, if continuing LIBOR Rate Revolving Loans, the specific Revolving Loans (or portions thereof) to be continued or converted;

(iii) the type of Revolving Loans resulting from the proposed continuation or conversion; and

(iv) the duration of any requested Interest Period, provided, however, the Borrowers may not select an Interest Period that ends after the Stated Revolving Termination Date.

(c) If upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to LIBOR Rate Revolving Loans, the Borrowers have failed to timely select a new Interest Period to be applicable to such LIBOR Rate Revolving Loans, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have elected to convert such LIBOR Rate Revolving Loans into Base Rate Revolving Loans effective as of the expiration date of such Interest Period.

(d) On or before the deadline set forth in clause (b) preceding, in lieu of delivering a Notice of Continuation/Conversion, the Borrowers may give the Administrative Agent telephonic notice of any request for a continuation or conversion. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely on such telephonic notice in continuing or converting such Revolving Loans, regardless of whether any written confirmation is received.

(e) The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Revolving Lender of its receipt of a Notice of Continuation/Conversion. All continuations and conversions

shall be made ratably according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Revolving Loans held by each Revolving Lender with respect to which such notice was given.

(f) After giving effect to any continuation or conversion of any LIBOR Rate Revolving Loan, there may not be more than ten (10) different Interest Periods in effect hereunder.

(g) At the election of either of the Agents or the Majority Revolving Lenders, the Borrowers shall have no right to convert any Base Rate Revolving Loans into LIBOR Rate Revolving Loans or to continue any LIBOR Rate Revolving Loans as LIBOR Rate Revolving Loans during the existence of any Default or Event of Default.

Section 3.3 Maximum Interest Rate. In no event shall the Interest Rate provided for in this Agreement applicable to any Obligation exceed the Maximum Rate. If the Interest Rate applicable to any Obligation, absent the limitation set forth in this Section 3.3, would otherwise exceed the Maximum Rate, then such Interest Rate shall be the Maximum Rate, and, if in the future, such Interest Rate would otherwise be less than the Maximum Rate, then such Interest Rate shall remain at the Maximum Rate until such time as the amount of interest paid hereunder in respect of such Obligation equals the amount of interest which would have been paid in respect of such Obligation if the Interest Rate for such Obligation had not been limited to the Maximum Rate. In the event that, upon payment in full of the applicable Obligation, the total amount of interest paid or accrued under the terms of this Agreement in respect of such Obligation is less than the total amount of interest which would, but for this Section 3.3, have been charged, paid, or accrued in respect of such Obligation if the Interest Rate for such Obligation otherwise set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect, then the Borrowers shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, pay the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Lenders, an amount equal to the excess of (a) the lesser of (i) the amount of interest which would have been charged, paid, or accrued in respect of such Obligation if the Maximum Rate had, at all times, been in effect or (ii) the amount of interest which would have been charged, paid, or accrued in respect of such Obligation had the Interest Rate for such Obligation otherwise set forth in this Agreement, at all times, been in effect over (b) the amount of interest actually charged, paid, or accrued under this Agreement in respect of such Obligation. If a court of competent jurisdiction determines that either Agent and/or any Lender has charged, received, or demanded interest and other charges hereunder in respect of any Obligation in excess of the Maximum Rate, such excess shall be deemed charged, received, or demanded on account of, and shall automatically be applied to reduce, the applicable Obligation other than interest, in the inverse order of maturity, and if there is no applicable Obligation outstanding, the applicable Agent and/or such Lender shall refund to the Borrowers (as applicable) such excess.

Section 3.4 Unused Line Fee. Subject to Section 3.3, until the Revolving Facility Payment In Full, the Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Revolving Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares, on the first day of each calendar month and on the Revolving Termination Date, an unused line fee (the “Unused Line Fee”) computed at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Unused Line Fee Percentage, multiplied by the amount by which (A) the average daily Maximum Revolver Amount exceeded

(B) the sum of the average daily outstanding amount of the Revolving Loans other than Non-Ratable Loans and the average daily undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit during the immediately preceding calendar month or shorter period if calculated on the Revolving Termination Date. Subject to Section 3.3, the Unused Line Fee shall be computed on the basis of a 360 day year for the actual number of days elapsed. For purposes of calculating the Unused Line Fee pursuant to this Section 3.4, any payment received by the Administrative Agent (if received prior to 12:00 noon (New York time)) shall be deemed to be credited to the Borrowers’ Loan Account on the Business Day such payment is received by the Administrative Agent.

Section 3.5 Letter of Credit Fees and Expenses.

(a) Subject to Section 3.3, the Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Revolving Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares a fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) equal to the Letter of Credit Fee Percentage, multiplied by the average undrawn amount of each Letter of Credit issued and outstanding hereunder. The Letter of Credit Fee shall be (i) computed on the basis of a 360 day year for the actual number of days elapsed and (ii) payable monthly in arrears on the first day of each month following any month in which a Letter of Credit was issued and/or in which a Letter of Credit remained outstanding and on the Revolving Termination Date.

(b) Subject to Section 3.3, the Borrowers agree to pay to the Letter of Credit Issuer, for its sole benefit, (i) all out-of-pocket costs, fees, and expenses incurred by the Letter of Credit Issuer in connection with the application for, processing, issuance, renewal, extension, or amendment of any Letter of Credit and (ii) a “fronting fee” in an amount equal to 0.125% of the face amount of such Letter of Credit on the date of issuance, renewal, or extension of each Letter of Credit.

Section 3.6 Other Fees. Subject to Section 3.3, the Borrowers agree to pay the Agents when due all other fees and expenses as set forth in the Fee Letters.

Section 3.7 Term Closing Fee. Subject to Section 3.3, the Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Term Lender on the Closing Date a closing fee in an amount equal to 1.632% of the New Term Loan Funding Amount of such Term Lender (the “Term Closing Fee”).

Section 3.8 Engagement Letter Fee. Subject to Section 3.3, the Borrowers agree to pay to Banc of America Securities LLC on the Closing Date the arrangement fee described in the Fee Letter (as defined in the Engagement Letter).

ARTICLE 4

PRINCIPAL PAYMENTS AND PREPAYMENTS

Section 4.1 Repayment.

(a) Revolving Loans. The Borrowers shall repay the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loans, together with all other non-contingent Obligations (other

than Term Loan Obligations), including all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, on the Revolving Termination Date (or with respect to any Bank Products, any applicable earlier date). The Borrowers may prepay the Revolving Loans, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time and, subject to the terms of this Agreement, reborrow prior to the Revolving Termination Date. In addition, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrowers shall immediately pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Revolving Lenders, the amount, if any and without duplication, by which the Aggregate Revolver Outstandings exceed the Borrowing Base. The Borrowers shall have the option, without the consent of the Term Lenders, to request that the Revolving Lenders extend the Stated Revolving Termination Date to a date no later than the Stated Term Loan Termination Date, subject to the approval of all of the Revolving Lenders in their sole discretion. In the event that the Borrowers wish to obtain a revolving credit facility on terms that, in the reasonable judgment of the Majority Term Lenders, are no less adverse taken as a whole to the Term Lenders than those contained in this Agreement with revolving credit lenders that are commercial banks, commercial finance companies or other asset-based lenders that provide asset-based revolving credit loans in the ordinary course of business, the Term Lenders agree to amend this Agreement or enter into a new loan agreement to provide for such replacement revolving credit facility on such terms; provided that in no event shall the foregoing obligate the Term Lenders to consent to any amendment to this Agreement or enter into a new loan agreement in respect of such replacement revolving credit facility which in the reasonable judgment of the Majority Term Lenders would be adverse to the Term Lenders taken as a whole; provided further that the Borrowers shall pay all of the Term Lenders’ reasonable fees and expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) incurred in connection with the negotiation of such replacement revolving credit facility.

(b) Term Loans. The Borrowers shall repay the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loans, together with all other non-contingent Obligations, including all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and the Early Term Loan Prepayment Fee, if any, on the Term Loan Termination Date.

(c) Payments. All payments to be made by the Borrowers with respect to the Loans shall be made without setoff, recoupment, or counterclaim. Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrowers shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Lenders, to the account designated by the Administrative Agent and shall be made in Dollars and in immediately available funds, no later than 12:00 noon (New York time) on the date specified herein. Any payment received by the Administrative Agent after such time shall be deemed to have been received on the following Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue.

(d) LIBOR Rate Revolving Loan Payment Dates. Subject to the provisions set forth in the definition of Interest Period, whenever any payment is due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be due on the following Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or fees, as the case may be.

Section 4.2 Termination of Credit Facility; Prepayment or Termination of Term Loans. The Borrowers may, at any time, terminate this Agreement upon at least ten Business Days’ prior written notice thereof to the Agents, upon (a) the payment in full of all outstanding Loans, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, and the cancellation and return of all outstanding Letters of Credit (or alternatively with respect to each such Letter of Credit, the furnishing to the Collateral Agent of either a Supporting Cash Deposit or a Supporting Letter of Credit as required by Section 2.4(g)), (b) the payment of the Early Term Loan Prepayment Fee provided below (if applicable), and (c) the payment in full of all reimbursable expenses and other Obligations (including any amount due under Section 5.4) together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that this Agreement may not be terminated as to the Term Loans prior to the first Anniversary Date. The Maximum Revolver Amount shall not be reduced except in connection with termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments and payment in full of all Revolving Obligations as provided by this Section 4.2 or as otherwise provided in Section 4.3(f) or Section 11.2. For the avoidance of doubt, the Maximum Revolver Amount shall be reduced to zero and the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be terminated upon the termination, in accordance with this Section 4.2, of the revolving credit facility provided hereunder (whether or not the Term Loans or any other Term Loan Obligations have been paid as provided in this Section 4.2). Subject to Section 3.3, if this Agreement is terminated or all or any portion of the Term Loans are prepaid or repaid at any time prior to the date that is thirty months after the Closing Date, whether pursuant to Section 4.3 or pursuant to Section 11.2 or otherwise, the Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Term Lenders, a fee (the “Early Term Loan Prepayment Fee”) in an amount determined in accordance with the following table and allocated to each Term Lender pro rata based upon the amount of its Term Loans being so repaid, prepaid or terminated:

Period during which repayment, prepayment or early termination occurs		Early Term Loan Prepayment Fee

On or prior to the second Anniversary Date		3.00% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Term Loans being repaid, prepaid or terminated

After the second Anniversary Date, but prior to the date that is thirty months after the Closing Date		2.00% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Term Loans being repaid, prepaid or terminated

No Term Loans may be voluntarily prepaid prior to the Revolving Facility Payment In Full.

Section 4.3 Mandatory Prepayment of the Loans. Without limiting Section 4.1, each of the Borrowers agrees to make a prepayment with respect to the outstanding Loans and other Obligations as follows:

(a) On any Business Day, if the Aggregate Revolver Outstandings exceed the Borrowing Base, the Borrowers shall immediately pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Revolving Lenders, the amount (if any) of such excess for application to the principal amount of the Revolving Loans and, if after such application there

remains any portion of such excess, such remaining unapplied amount shall be delivered to and held by the Collateral Agent as cash collateral for the Obligations (contingent or otherwise) with respect to outstanding Letters of Credit.

(b) All cash proceeds received by any Borrower from the Disposition or sale of Inventory or collection of Accounts in the ordinary course of business shall be applied to repayment of the applicable Obligations promptly (and in any event within one Business Day of receipt) as specified in Section 4.6(c).

(c) The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Lenders, promptly (and in any event within one Business Day of receipt) all net cash proceeds received by an Obligated Party in connection with any Disposition, excluding proceeds received pursuant to clause (b) preceding, for application to the applicable Obligations as provided in Section 4.6(c). As used in this Section 4.3(c), “net cash proceeds” means the proceeds of any applicable Disposition, minus (i) commissions and other reasonable and customary transaction costs, fees, and expenses properly attributable to such transaction and payable by such Obligated Party in connection therewith (in each case, paid to non-Affiliates), (ii) transfer taxes and (iii) amounts payable to holders of Liens (to the extent such Liens constitute Permitted Liens hereunder and such Liens are senior to the Agent’s Liens), if any, on the property subject to such Disposition to the extent the documentation governing such senior Liens required such payment to such holders upon such Disposition.

(d) All cash payments or other cash proceeds received by any Obligated Party constituting proceeds of a Distribution, loan, or other advance (other than a Distribution, loan or advance by an Obligated Party to an Obligated Party) to such Obligated Party, excluding proceeds of Revolving Loans, Term Loans, the Second Lien Debt or the Refinancing Second Lien Debt, such proceeds which are proceeds of a loan or advance from one Borrower to another Obligated Party, and other than such proceeds which are proceeds of a loan or advance permitted under clause (c) through clause (j) of Section 8.12, shall be paid to the Administrative Agent promptly upon such receipt, for application to the applicable Obligations as specified in Section 4.6(c).

(e) Upon any issuance of any Capital Stock of any Obligated Party, no later than two Business Days after such issuance, the Borrowers shall make a prepayment in an amount equal to the proceeds of such issuance, net of underwriting discounts, commissions, and other reasonable and customary transaction costs, fees, and expenses properly attributable to such transaction and payable by such Obligated Party in connection therewith (in each case paid to Persons who are not Affiliates of any Obligated Party) for application to the applicable Obligations in accordance with Section 4.6(c).

(f) In any event, if any Obligated Party receives (i) net cash proceeds in connection with any Disposition, (ii) cash payments or other cash proceeds of a Distribution, loan, or other advance to such Obligated Party or (iii) proceeds of any issuance of Capital Stock, on or after the Closing Date, any such proceeds or payments shall be applied to the payment of the Revolving Loans (and after the payment in full of

the Revolving Loans and so long as no Event of Default is then continuing, to the payment of the Term Loans) to the extent necessary to avoid any requirement under any Second Lien Debt Documents or Refinancing Second Lien Debt Documents to prepay or redeem (or to make any offer to prepay or redeem) any portion of the Second Lien Debt or Refinancing Second Lien Debt, together with a permanent reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments and the Maximum Revolver Amount in the amount of any such application to the Revolving Loans (such reduction to result in each Revolving Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment being permanently reduced by its Pro Rata Share of such reduction). Any payment of the Term Loans made pursuant to this Section 4.3(f) and prior to the date that is thirty months after the Closing Date shall be accompanied by the Early Term Loan Prepayment Fee in accordance with Section 4.2. For the avoidance of doubt, no Early Term Loan Prepayment Fee shall be payable in connection with any prepayments or payments on the Term Loans made at any time after thirty months after the Closing Date.

No provision contained in this Section 4.3 shall constitute a consent to an asset disposition, Distribution, loan, advance or equity issuance that is otherwise not permitted by the terms of this Agreement.

Section 4.4 LIBOR Rate Revolving Loan Prepayments. In connection with any prepayment, if any LIBOR Rate Revolving Loans are prepaid prior to the expiration date of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Revolving Lenders, the amounts described in Section 5.4, provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to pay the amounts described in Section 5.4 in connection with any Revolving Lender’s entering into an Assignment and Acceptance.

Section 4.5 Payments as Revolving Loans. At the election of the Administrative Agent, all payments of principal, interest, reimbursement obligations in connection with Letters of Credit, fees, premiums, reimbursable expenses (including all reimbursement for expenses pursuant to Section 15.7), other sums payable under the Loan Documents, and any and all amounts equal to the excess of checks and other items presented to BofA for payment against the Funding Account or any other Deposit Account maintained by a Borrower with BofA in an amount greater than the then available balance in such Deposit Account may be paid with the proceeds of Revolving Loans made hereunder whether made following a request for such purpose by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 2.2 or pursuant to a deemed request as provided in this Section 4.5. The Borrowers hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to charge the Loan Account for the purpose of paying all amounts from time to time due under the Loan Documents (including as described in this Section 4.5) and agree that all such amounts charged shall constitute Revolving Loans (including Non-Ratable Loans and Agent Advances) and that all such Revolving Loans shall be deemed to have been requested pursuant to Section 2.2; provided that, except as set forth in the succeeding sentence, so long as no Event of Default exists, the Administrative Agent shall not charge the Loan Account for expenses until 10 days have elapsed since the Administrative Agent has sent an invoice therefor to Xxxxx. In the event the Collateral Agent is required to make any payment to Xxxxx Fargo Bank, N.A. (“WFB”) pursuant to the payoff letter delivered by WFB to Xxxxx and the Collateral Agent on the Original Closing Date with respect to that certain Credit and Security Agreement, dated as of July 25, 2003, the Administrative Agent shall immediately charge the Loan Account for the purpose of

reimbursing the Collateral Agent for all such payments and all such amounts charged shall constitute Revolving Loans.

Section 4.6 Apportionment, Application, and Reversal of Payments.

(a) Principal and interest payments shall be apportioned ratably among the applicable Lenders (according to the unpaid principal balance of the Loans to which such payments relate held by each applicable Lender) and payments of the fees shall, as applicable, be apportioned ratably among the applicable Lenders, except for fees payable solely to BofA, Wachovia, the Agents, either of them, Banc of America Securities LLC and the Letter of Credit Issuer and except as provided in Article 13.

(b) Except as provided otherwise in this Agreement, all payments shall be remitted to the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, to the Collateral Agent, and all such payments not relating to principal or interest of specific Loans, or not constituting payment of specific fees, and all proceeds of any Obligated Party’s Accounts or any other Collateral received by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, shall be applied, ratably, subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, FIRST, to pay any fees, indemnities, or expense reimbursements then due to either of the Agents from any Obligated Party, SECOND, to pay any fees, indemnities, or expense reimbursements then due to any of the Credit Providers other than the Agents from any Obligated Party, THIRD, to pay interest then due in respect of the Loans, including Non-Ratable Loans and Agent Advances, FOURTH, to pay or prepay principal of the Non-Ratable Loans and the Agent Advances, FIFTH, to pay or prepay principal of the Revolving Loans (other than the Non-Ratable Loans and the Agent Advances) and unpaid reimbursement obligations in respect of Letters of Credit, SIXTH, during the existence of a Default or an Event of Default, to pay an amount to the Collateral Agent equal to 105% of the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit and the aggregate amount of any unpaid reimbursement obligations in respect of Letters of Credit, to be held as cash collateral for such Obligations, and SEVENTH, to the payment of any other Obligation including any amounts relating to Bank Products due to BofA, Wachovia, any other Lender or any of their respective Affiliates by any of the Obligated Parties. Subject to items “first” through “seventh” preceding, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply and reverse and reapply any and all such proceeds and payments to any portion of the Obligations.

(c) Payments received pursuant to Section 4.3(b), Section 4.3(c), Section 4.3(d) and Section 4.3(e) shall be applied, ratably, subject to the other provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 4.3(f) and Section 4.6(e)), in the order of priority set forth for items “first” through “fifth” of clause (b) preceding at any time other than during the existence of a Default or an Event of Default, and during the existence of any Default or Event of Default, as specified in clause (b) preceding but with such payments to be applied first, to payment or cash collateralization, as applicable, of the Revolving Obligations in accordance with the allocation arrangements prescribed in such clause (b) until fully paid or cash collateralized, as applicable, and thereafter to payment of the Term Loan Obligations.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, unless so directed by a Borrower, or unless an Event of Default is in existence, neither the Administrative Agent nor any Revolving Lender shall apply any payment which it receives to any LIBOR Rate Revolving Loan, except (i) on the expiration date of the Interest Period applicable to any such LIBOR Rate Revolving Loan or (ii) in the event, and only to the extent, that there are no outstanding Base Rate Revolving Loans and, in any such event, the Borrowers shall pay the LIBOR breakage losses in accordance with Section 5.4.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (i) subject to clause (iii) of this Section 4.6(e), on the Stated Term Loan Termination Date, the Administrative Agent shall apply Collateral and proceeds of Collateral remitted to it (other than Collateral and proceeds of Collateral described in the last sentence of Section 10.1) to pay the outstanding Term Loan Obligations, (ii) the Administrative Agent shall allocate amounts received by it to Term Loan Obligations in accordance with and to the extent provided in Section 4.3(f), and (iii) with respect to all Collateral and proceeds of Collateral received by the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent from and after the acceleration of the Obligations under this Agreement or the commencement of any bankruptcy or similar proceeding by or against any Obligated Party, such Collateral and proceeds of Collateral shall be applied first, to pay or cash collateralize, as applicable, the Revolving Obligations in accordance with the allocation arrangements prescribed in Section 4.6(b) until fully paid or cash collateralized, as applicable, and thereafter to pay the Term Loan Obligations.

Section 4.7 Indemnity for Returned Payments. If after receipt of any payment or of any proceeds of Collateral that is applied to the payment of all or any part of the Obligations, any Credit Provider is for any reason compelled to surrender such payment or proceeds to any Person because such payment or application of proceeds is invalidated, declared fraudulent, set aside, determined to be void or voidable as a preference, impermissible setoff, or a diversion of trust funds, or for any other reason, then the Obligations or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued and this Agreement shall continue in full force as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by such Credit Provider and the Borrowers shall be liable to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the applicable Credit Providers, and each Borrower hereby indemnifies the applicable Credit Providers and holds the applicable Credit Providers harmless for the amount of such payment or proceeds surrendered. The provisions of this Section 4.7 shall be and remain effective notwithstanding any release of Collateral or guarantors, cancellation or return of Loan Documents, or other contrary action that may have been taken by any Credit Provider in reliance upon such payment or application of proceeds, and any such contrary action so taken shall be without prejudice to the Credit Providers’ rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and shall be deemed to have been conditioned upon such payment or application of proceeds having become final and irrevocable. The provisions of this Section 4.7 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Section 4.8 Administrative Agent’s and the Lenders’ Books and Records; Monthly Statements. The Administrative Agent shall record the principal amount of the Loans, the undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit, and the aggregate amount of unpaid reimbursement obligations outstanding with respect to the Letters of Credit from time to time on

its books. In addition, each Lender may note the date and amount of each payment or prepayment of principal of such Lender’s Loans in its books and records. Failure by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make any such notation shall not affect the obligations of the Borrowers with respect to the Loans or the Letters of Credit. The Borrowers agree that the Administrative Agent’s and each Lender’s books and records showing the Obligations and the transactions pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be admissible in any action or proceeding arising therefrom, and shall constitute presumptive proof thereof, irrespective of whether any Obligation is also evidenced by a promissory note or other instrument. The Administrative Agent will provide to the Borrowers and the Revolving Lenders (and, if requested in writing by any Term Lender, such Term Lender) a monthly statement of Loans, payments, and other transactions pursuant to this Agreement. Such statement shall be deemed correct, accurate, and binding on the Borrowers and an account stated (except for reversals and reapplications of payments made as provided in Section 4.6 and corrections of errors discovered by either of the Agents), unless a Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent in writing to the contrary within 30 days after such statement is rendered. In the event a timely written notice of objections is given by a Borrower, only the items to which exception is expressly made will be considered to be disputed by the Borrowers. Each Term Lender agrees to provide the Administrative Agent with such information as to the Term Loans and other Term Loan Obligations owing to such Term Lender and as to such Term Lender (including, without limitation, wire transfer information) as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in order for the Administrative Agent to properly and accurately perform its duties under this Section 4.8, Section 4.6 and the other relevant provisions of this Agreement.

ARTICLE 5

TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

Section 5.1 Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by the Obligated Parties, or any of them, to either Agent or any Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, any Taxes. In addition, subject to Section 14.10(c), the Obligated Parties shall pay all Other Taxes.

(b) The Obligated Parties agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each Lender for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 5.1) paid by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender and any liability (including penalties, interest, additions to tax, and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. Payment under this indemnification shall be made within 30 days after the date the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender makes written demand therefor.

(c) If an Obligated Party shall be required by law to deduct or withhold any Taxes or Other Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender, then:

(i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions and withholdings (including, without limitation, deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 5.1) the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made;

(ii) such Obligated Party shall make such deductions and withholdings;

(iii) such Obligated Party shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant taxing authority or other authority in accordance with any applicable Requirement of Law; and

(iv) such Obligated Party shall also pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender, or each Lender at the time interest is paid, all additional amounts that the respective Lender specifies as necessary to preserve the after-tax yield such Lender would have received if such Taxes or Other Taxes had not been imposed.

(d) Within 30 days after the date of any payment by any Obligated Party of Taxes or Other Taxes, such Obligated Party shall furnish to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof or other evidence of payment satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e) If the Obligated Parties are required to pay additional amounts to any Lender pursuant to Section 5.1(c), then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its lending office so as to eliminate any such additional payment by the Obligated Parties that may thereafter accrue, if such change in the judgment of such Lender is not otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

Section 5.2 Illegality.

(a) If any Revolving Lender determines that, after the date of this Agreement, the introduction of any Requirement of Law, or any change in any Requirement of Law, or in the interpretation or administration of any Requirement of Law, has made it unlawful, or that any central bank or other Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for such Revolving Lender or its applicable lending office to make LIBOR Rate Revolving Loans, then, on notice thereof by such Revolving Lender to the Borrowers through the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Revolving Lender to make LIBOR Rate Revolving Loans shall be suspended until such Revolving Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist.

(b) If a Revolving Lender determines that it is unlawful to maintain any LIBOR Rate Revolving Loan, the Borrowers shall, upon receipt of notice of such fact and demand from such Revolving Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay in full such LIBOR Rate Revolving Loans of such Revolving Lender then outstanding, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon and amounts required under Section 5.4, either on the last day of the Interest Period thereof, if such Revolving Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Rate Revolving Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Revolving Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Rate Revolving Loans. If the Borrowers are required to so prepay any LIBOR Rate Revolving Loans, then concurrently with such prepayment, the Borrowers shall borrow from the affected Revolving Lender, in the amount of such repayment, a Base Rate Revolving Loan. Each Revolving Lender agrees to designate a different lending office if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the judgment of such Revolving Lender, otherwise be disadvantageous to such Revolving Lender.

Section 5.3 Increased Costs and Reduction of Return.

(a) If any Revolving Lender determines that due to either (i) the introduction of or any change in the interpretation of any law or regulation after the date of this Agreement or (ii) the compliance by such Revolving Lender with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law) made after the date of this Agreement, there shall be any increase in the cost to such Revolving Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding, or maintaining any LIBOR Rate Revolving Loans, then the Borrowers shall be liable for, and shall from time to time, within three Business Days of demand by such Revolving Lender (with a copy of such demand to be sent to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of such Revolving Lender, additional amounts as are sufficient to compensate such Revolving Lender for such increased costs.

(b) If any Revolving Lender shall have determined that (to the extent it occurs after the date of this Agreement) (i) the introduction of any Capital Adequacy Regulation, (ii) any change in any Capital Adequacy Regulation, (iii) any change in the interpretation or administration of any Capital Adequacy Regulation by any central bank or other Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or (iv) compliance by such Revolving Lender or any corporation or other entity controlling such Revolving Lender with any Capital Adequacy Regulation, affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Revolving Lender or any corporation or other entity controlling such Revolving Lender and (taking into consideration such Revolving Lender’s or such corporation’s or other entity’s policies with respect to capital adequacy and such Revolving Lender’s desired return on capital) determines that the amount of such capital is increased as a consequence of its Commitment, loans, credits, or obligations under this Agreement, then, within three Business Days of demand by such Revolving Lender (with a copy of such demand to be sent to the Administrative Agent), the Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of such Revolving Lender, from time to time as specified by such

Revolving Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Revolving Lender for such increase.

Section 5.4 Funding Losses. The Borrowers shall reimburse each Revolving Lender and hold each Revolving Lender harmless from any loss or expense that such Revolving Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of:

(a) the failure of the Borrowers to make on a timely basis any payment of principal of any LIBOR Rate Revolving Loan;

(b) except as permitted by Section 5.5, the failure of the Borrowers to (i) borrow any requested LIBOR Rate Revolving Loan, (ii) continue any LIBOR Rate Revolving Loan, or (iii) convert a Base Rate Revolving Loan to a LIBOR Rate Revolving Loan, in each case, after any Borrower has given (or is deemed to have given) a Notice of Borrowing, a Notice of Continuation/Conversion, or any telephonic notice in lieu thereof with respect thereto; or

(c) the prepayment or other payment (including after acceleration thereof) of any LIBOR Rate Revolving Loans on a day that is not the last day of the relevant Interest Period;

including any such loss of anticipated profit and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by such Revolving Lender (but excluding loss of the Applicable Margin) to maintain its LIBOR Rate Revolving Loans or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. The Borrowers shall also pay any customary administrative fees, including a processing fee (the processing fee is currently Three Hundred Fifty Dollars ($350) but is subject to change from time to time by the Administrative Agent without notice), charged by the Administrative Agent or any Revolving Lender in connection with the foregoing.

Section 5.5 Inability to Determine Rates. If the Administrative Agent determines that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the LIBOR Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBOR Rate Revolving Loan or that the LIBOR Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBOR Rate Revolving Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Revolving Lenders of funding such Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrowers and each Revolving Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of the Revolving Lenders to make or maintain LIBOR Rate Revolving Loans hereunder shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent revokes such notice in writing. Upon receipt of a notice pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 5.5, the Borrowers may revoke any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Continuation/Conversion then submitted by any of them. If the Borrowers do not revoke any such Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Continuation/Conversion, the Revolving Lenders shall make, convert, or continue the Revolving Loans, as proposed by the Borrowers, in the amount specified in the applicable notice submitted by a Borrower, but such Revolving Loans shall be made, converted, or continued as Base Rate Revolving Loans instead of LIBOR Rate Revolving Loans.

Section 5.6 Certificate of the Affected Lender. If any Lender claims reimbursement or compensation under this Article 5, the affected Lender shall determine the amount thereof and shall deliver to the Borrowers (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the amount payable to the affected Lender, and such certificate shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers in the absence of manifest error.

Section 5.7 Survival. The agreements and obligations of the Borrowers in this Article 5 shall survive the payment of all other Obligations.

Xxxxx shall certify by a certificate signed by a Responsible Officer that all such Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP (other than the omission of footnotes and subject to normal year-end audit adjustments, if any) applied consistently with the audited Financial Statements required to be delivered pursuant to Section 6.2(a) and present fairly, subject to normal year-end audit adjustments, the financial position of Xxxxx and its Subsidiaries as at the dates thereof and their results of operations for the periods then ended.

If such certificate discloses that a representation or warranty is not correct or complete, or that a covenant has not been complied with, or that a Default or Event of Default existed or exists, such certificate shall set forth what action the Obligated Parties have taken or propose to take with respect thereto. In addition, if, as a result of any change in accounting principles and policies from those used in the preparation of the audited Financial Statements referred to in Section 7.6(a), the consolidated Financial Statements of Xxxxx and its Subsidiaries delivered pursuant to Section 6.2(a) or (b) will differ in any material respect from the consolidated Financial Statements that would have been delivered pursuant to such clauses had no such change in accounting principles and policies been made, then the Obligated Parties will deliver to both Agents (with sufficient

(l) The Obligated Parties will provide the Agents the information required by Section 8.7(b).

In addition to the foregoing delivery requirements, if at any time during which the Term Loans are outstanding Xxxxx is no longer subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for any reason, Xxxxx will nevertheless continue filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), unless the Commission will not accept such a filing, all quarterly and annual reports on Forms 10-Q and 10-K and all current reports on Form 8-K that would be required to be filed if Xxxxx were required to file such reports, in each case within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and regulations and prepared in all material respects in accordance with all of the rules and regulations applicable to such reports.

Xxxxx agrees to make any and all material and/or information to be provided by any of the Obligated Parties hereunder or under any other Loan Document intended to be distributed or made available to the Lenders (collectively, “Obligated Parties Material”) clearly and conspicuously designated by Xxxxx as “PUBLIC” if such Obligated Parties Material is either publicly available or not material information (though it may be sensitive and proprietary) with respect to the Obligated Parties and their respective securities for purposes of the United States Federal and state securities laws. Notwithstanding anything herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary, unless and until a Term Lender notifies the Administrative Agent in writing to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall only furnish or make available to such Term Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document Obligated Parties Material clearly and conspicuously designated by Xxxxx as “PUBLIC”.

Each Obligated Party has taken all necessary action (including obtaining approval of the owners of its Capital Stock or any other Person required to provide approval or consent, if necessary) to authorize its execution, delivery, and performance of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party. The Transaction Documents to which each Obligated Party is a party have been duly executed and delivered by such Obligated Party, and constitute the legal, valid, and binding obligations of such Obligated Party, enforceable against it in accordance with their respective terms without defense, setoff, or counterclaim except as such enforceability is limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and to the effect of general principles of equity whether applied by a court of law or equity. Each Obligated Party’s execution, delivery, and performance of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party do not and will not conflict with, or constitute a violation or breach of, or constitute a default under, or result in or require the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any property of any Obligated Party by reason of the terms of (a) any contract, mortgage, Lien, lease, agreement, indenture, document, or instrument to which such Obligated Party is a party or that is binding upon it, (b) any Requirement of Law applicable to such Obligated Party, or (c) the Organization Certificate or Management Agreement of such Obligated Party.
