ARTICLE III

INCREASED COSTS; TAXES

SECTION 3.1. INCREASED COSTS.

(a) Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall: (i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or advances, loans or other credit extended by, Bank (except any reserve requirement reflected in the LIBOR); (ii) subject Bank to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement or any Loan bearing interest at LIBOR made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to Bank in respect thereof (except for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 3.2 and the imposition of, or any change in the rate of any Excluded Tax payable by Bank); or (iii) impose on Bank or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or any Loan bearing interest at LIBOR made by Bank; and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to Bank of making or maintaining any Loan bearing interest at LIBOR (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon written request of Bank, Borrower shall promptly pay to Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Bank for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) Capital Requirements. If Bank determines (in good faith and in its reasonable discretion) that any Change in Law affecting Bank or any lending office of Bank or Bank’s holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on Bank’s capital or on the capital of Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Line of Credit or the Loans made by Bank, to a level below that which Bank or Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration Bank’s policies and the policies of Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time upon written request of Bank, Borrower shall promptly pay to Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Bank or Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 3.1 and setting forth in reasonable detail the manner in which such amount or amounts shall have been determined, shall be delivered to Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Borrower shall pay Bank the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.

- 25 -

(d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that Borrower shall not be required to compensate Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine (9) months prior to the date that Bank notifies Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

SECTION 3.2. TAXES.

(a) Any and all payments by Borrower to or for the account of Bank hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any and all Taxes, and all liabilities with respect thereto, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority, excluding Taxes imposed on its income, receipts, capital, net worth or items of tax preference and franchise, doing business and similar Taxes (imposed on it in lieu of net income taxes), that are imposed on Bank as a result of a present or former connection between Bank and the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such tax or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (other than any such connection arising solely from Bank having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, this Agreement or any other Loan Document) (“Excluded Taxes”). If any such non-Excluded Taxes (“Indemnified Taxes”) or Other Taxes (as defined below) are required to be withheld after the date hereof from or in respect of any sum payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to Bank, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.2) Bank receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) Borrower shall make such deductions, (iii) Borrower shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable Laws, and (iv) Borrower shall furnish to Bank, at its address referred to in Section 9.2, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof or other evidence of payment reasonably acceptable to Bank; provided that Borrower shall not be required to increase such amounts payable to Bank with respect to any Taxes (A) that are attributable to Bank’s failure to comply with the requirements of paragraph (d) of this Section or (B) that are United States federal withholding taxes imposed on amounts payable to Bank at the time Bank becomes a party to this Agreement, or, in the case of an assignment, at the time when the Assignee becomes a party to this Agreement, except to the extent that Bank’s assignor (if any) was entitled, at the time of assignment, to receive additional amounts from Borrower with respect to such Taxes pursuant to this paragraph.

- 26 -

(b) In addition, Borrower agrees to timely pay any and all present or future stamp, property, recording, excise and documentary taxes which arise from the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the provision of the security interest in any Collateral required hereunder (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

(c) Borrower agrees to indemnify Bank for the full amount of Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes (including any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 3.2) paid by Bank and any liability (including penalties, interest, and reasonable expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto.

(d) Bank, on or prior to the Closing Date, and from time to time thereafter if requested in writing by Borrower, shall provide Borrower with (i) a complete and properly executed IRS Form X-0XXX, X-0XXX or W-8IMY (including all required accompanying information), as appropriate, or any successor form prescribed by the IRS (including a United States taxpayer identification number), certifying that Bank is entitled to benefits under an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party that reduces the rate of withholding tax on payments of interest, certifying that such Person is eligible for the “portfolio interest exemption” or certifying that the income receivable pursuant to this Agreement is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States or (ii) an IRS Form W-9 or any successor form prescribed by the IRS. In addition, Bank will (A) take all actions reasonably requested in good faith by Borrower in writing that are consistent with applicable legal and regulatory restrictions to claim any available reductions or exemptions from Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes and (B) otherwise cooperate with Borrower to minimize any amounts payable by Borrower under this Section 3.2; provided that, in each case, any out-of-pocket cost relating directly to such action or cooperation requested by Borrower shall be borne by Borrower, and Bank shall not be required to take any action that it determines in its sole good faith discretion may be adverse in any non de minimis respect to it and not indemnified to its satisfaction.

(e) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of Borrower contained in this Section 3.2 shall survive the payment in full of all obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

- 27 -

SECTION 3.3. INABILITY TO DETERMINE RATES. If Bank determines in connection with any request for a Loan or continuation thereof that (a) Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank offered market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Loan, (b) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining LIBOR for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Loan, or (c) LIBOR for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Bank of funding such Loan, then Bank will promptly so notify Borrower. Thereafter, the obligation of Bank to make or maintain Loans shall be suspended until Bank revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Revolving Credit Borrowing or continuation of Loans or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Revolving Credit Borrowing consisting of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein.

SECTION 3.4. COMPENSATION FOR LOSSES. Upon demand of Bank from time to time, Borrower shall promptly compensate Bank for and hold Bank harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of:

(a) any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise); or

(b) any failure by Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of Bank to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on the date or in the amount notified by Borrower;

including any loss of anticipated profits and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. Borrower shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by Bank in connection with the foregoing. For purposes of calculating amounts payable by Borrower to Bank under this Section 3.4, Bank shall be deemed to have funded each LIBOR Loan made by it by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the London interbank offered market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such LIBOR Loan was in fact so funded.

SECTION 3.5. SURVIVAL. All obligations of Borrower under this Article III shall survive repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the Obligations.

ARTICLE IV

(k) Any Loan Document or any provision thereof, at any time after its execution and delivery and for any reason other than as expressly permitted hereunder or thereunder or satisfaction in full of all the Obligations, ceases to be in full force and effect; or Borrower or any Subsidiary contests in any manner the validity or enforceability of any Loan Document or any provision thereof; or Borrower or any Subsidiary denies that it has any or further liability or obligation under any Loan Document, or purports to revoke, terminate or rescind any Loan Document or any provision thereof; or

(l) A Change of Control occurs.

SECTION 8.2. REMEDIES. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default: (a) all indebtedness of Borrower under each of the Loan Documents, any term thereof to the contrary notwithstanding, shall at Bank’s option and without notice become immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or notice of dishonor, all of which are hereby expressly waived by each Borrower; (b) the obligation, if any, of Bank to extend any further credit under any of the Loan Documents shall immediately cease and terminate; and (c) Bank shall have all rights, powers and remedies available under each of the Loan Documents, or accorded by law, including without limitation the right to resort to any or all security for any credit created by the

ARTICLE IX

SECTION 9.1. NO WAIVER. No delay, failure or discontinuance of Bank in exercising any right, power or remedy under any of the Loan Documents shall affect or operate as a waiver of such right, power or remedy; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude, waive or otherwise affect any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy.

- 42 -

SECTION 9.4. SUCCESSORS, ASSIGNMENT. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives, successors and assigns of the parties; provided that Borrower may not assign or transfer its interest hereunder without Bank’s prior written consent. Bank reserves the right to sell, assign, transfer, negotiate or grant participations in all or any part of, or any interest in, Bank’s rights and benefits under each of the Loan Documents.

SECTION 9.5. CONFIDENTIALITY. The Confidential Information will be used by Bank solely for the purpose of evaluating Borrower’s credit request and/or Bank’s ongoing credit accommodations to Borrower. Bank will keep all the Confidential Information confidential, and will not disclose any of the Confidential Information to any person or entity, except disclosures: (a) to federal and state bank examiners, and other regulatory officials having jurisdictions over Bank; (b) to Bank’s legal counsel and auditors; (c) to other professional advisors to Bank; (d) to Bank’s representatives (which shall include, without limitation, all other banks and companies affiliated with Xxxxx Fargo & Company) who need to know the Confidential Information for the purpose of evaluating Borrower’s credit request and/or Bank’s ongoing credit accommodations to Borrower, it being expressly understood and agreed that such representatives shall be informed of the confidential nature of the Confidential Information, and shall be required by Bank to treat the Confidential Information as confidential in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof; (e) as otherwise required by law or legal process; or (f) as otherwise authorized by Borrower in writing. In the event that Bank or any of its representatives becomes legally compelled to disclose any of the Confidential Information pursuant to clause (e) of the preceding sentence, then Bank, except as otherwise required by law, will provide notice thereof to Borrower so that Borrower, at its sole option (but without obligation to do so), may attempt to seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive compliance with the provisions of this Agreement. The confidentiality requirement set forth herein shall not extend to any portion of the Confidential Information that: (x) is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by Bank or its representatives; (y) is or becomes available to Bank on a non-confidential basis by Borrower or any officer, employee, agent or representative of Borrower prior to its disclosure by Bank; or (z) is or becomes available to Bank on a non-confidential basis from a source other than Borrower.

SECTION 9.6. GUARANTY.

(a) (i) Each Material Domestic Subsidiary of Borrower party hereto, and each Material Domestic Subsidiary that becomes a guarantor of the Obligations pursuant to a Joinder Agreement (each, a “Subsidiary Guarantor”) unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to Bank the full and prompt payment when due (whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise) and performance of all indebtedness, liabilities, covenants, duties and other obligations of Borrower to Bank under this Agreement, the Note and all other Loan Documents (the “Guaranteed Obligations”). The Guaranteed Obligations include interest that, but for a proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law, would have accrued on such Guaranteed Obligations, whether or not a claim is allowed against Borrower for such interest in any such proceeding.

- 43 -

(ii) Notwithstanding any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, the maximum aggregate amount for which any Subsidiary Guarantor shall be liable under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum amount for which such Subsidiary Guarantor can be liable without rendering this Agreement or any other Loan Document, as it relates to such Subsidiary Guarantor, subject to avoidance under applicable requirements of law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, including the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act and Section 548 of title 11 of the United States Code or any applicable provisions of comparable Requirements of Law (collectively, “Fraudulent Transfer Laws”). Any analysis of the provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document for purposes of Fraudulent Transfer Laws shall take into account the right of contribution established in Section 9.6(a)(iii) and, for purposes of such analysis, give effect to any discharge of intercompany debt as a result of any payment made by any Subsidiary Guarantor under any Loan Document.

(iii) To the extent that any Subsidiary Guarantor shall be required under any Loan Document to pay any portion of any indebtedness under any Loan Document exceeding the greater of (x) the amount of the economic benefit actually received by such Subsidiary Guarantor from the loans and other obligations under the Loan Documents and (y) the amount such Subsidiary Guarantor would otherwise have paid if such Subsidiary Guarantor had paid the aggregate amount of the indebtedness and other liabilities under the Loan Documents (excluding the amount thereof repaid by Borrower) in the same proportion as such Subsidiary Guarantor’s net worth on the date enforcement is sought hereunder bears to the aggregate net worth of all the Subsidiary Guarantors on such date, then such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be reimbursed by such other Subsidiary Guarantors for the amount of such excess, pro rata, based on the respective net worth of such other Subsidiary Guarantors on such date.

(b) Each Subsidiary Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that: (i) the Guaranteed Obligations are separate and distinct from any debt arising under or in connection with any other document, including under any provision of this Agreement other than this Section 9.6, executed at any time by such Subsidiary Guarantor in favor of Bank; and (ii) such Subsidiary Guarantor shall pay and perform all of the Guaranteed Obligations as required under this Section 9.6, and Bank may enforce any and all of its respective rights and remedies hereunder, without regard to any other document, including any provision of this Agreement other than this Section 9.6, at any time executed by such Subsidiary Guarantor in favor of Bank, irrespective of whether any such other document, or any provision thereof or hereof, shall for any reason become unenforceable or any of the debt thereunder shall have been discharged, whether by performance, avoidance or otherwise (other than the indefeasible payment and performance in full of all Guaranteed Obligations). Each Subsidiary Guarantor acknowledges that, in providing benefits to Borrower, Bank is relying upon the enforceability of this Section 9.6 and the Guaranteed Obligations as separate and distinct debt of such Subsidiary Guarantor, and each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that Bank would be denied the full benefit of its bargain if at any time this Section 9.6 or the Guaranteed Obligations were treated any differently. The fact that the guaranty is set forth in this Agreement rather than in a separate guaranty document is for the convenience of Borrower and Subsidiary Guarantors and shall in no way impair or adversely

- 44 -

affect the rights or benefits of Bank under this Section 9.6. Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees to execute and deliver a separate document, immediately upon request at any time of Bank, evidencing such Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations under this Section 9.6. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, a separate action or actions may be brought against any Subsidiary Guarantor, whether or not Borrower, any other Subsidiary Guarantor or any other Person is joined therein or a separate action or actions are brought against Borrower, any such other Subsidiary Guarantor or any such other Person.

(c) To the extent that any court of competent jurisdiction shall impose by final judgment under applicable law (including the California Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act and Sections 544 and 548 of the Bankruptcy Code) any limitations on the amount of any Subsidiary Guarantor’s liability with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations that Bank can enforce under this Section 9.6, Bank by its acceptance hereof accepts such limitation on the amount of such Subsidiary Guarantor’s liability hereunder to the extent needed to make this Section 9.6 fully enforceable and nonavoidable.

(d) The liability of any Subsidiary Guarantor under this Section 9.6 shall be irrevocable, absolute, independent and unconditional, and shall not be affected by any circumstance that might constitute a discharge of a surety or guarantor other than the indefeasible payment and performance in full of all Guaranteed Obligations. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees as follows:

(i) such Subsidiary Guarantor’s liability hereunder shall be the immediate, direct, and primary obligation of such Subsidiary Guarantor and shall not be contingent upon Bank’s exercise or enforcement of any remedy it may have against Borrower or any other Person, or against any collateral or other security for any Guaranteed Obligations;

(ii) this guaranty is a guaranty of payment when due and not merely of collectibility;

(iii) Bank may enforce this Section 9.6 upon the occurrence of an Event of Default notwithstanding the existence of any dispute among Bank, on the one hand, and Borrower or any other Person, on the other hand, with respect to the existence of such Event of Default;

(iv) such Subsidiary Guarantor’s payment of a portion, but not all, of the Guaranteed Obligations shall in no way limit, affect, modify or abridge such Subsidiary Guarantor’s liability for any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations remaining unsatisfied; and

(v) such Subsidiary Guarantor’s liability with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be impaired or affected by, nor shall such Subsidiary Guarantor be exonerated or discharged by, any of the following events:

(A) any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law;

- 45 -

(B) any limitation, discharge, or cessation of the liability of Borrower or any other Person for any Guaranteed Obligations due to any statute, regulation or rule of law, or any invalidity or unenforceability in whole or in part of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or the Loan Documents;

(C) any merger, acquisition, consolidation or change in structure of Borrower or any other guarantor or Person, or any sale, lease, transfer or other disposition of any or all of the assets or shares of Borrower or any other Person;

(D) any assignment or other transfer, in whole or in part, of Bank’s interests in and rights under this Agreement (including this Section 9.6) or the other Loan Documents;

(E) any claim, defense, counterclaim or setoff, other than that of prior performance, that Borrower, such Subsidiary Guarantor, any other guarantor or any other Person may have or assert, including any defense of incapacity or lack of corporate or other authority to execute any of the Loan Documents;

(F) Bank’s amendment, modification, renewal, extension, cancellation or surrender of any Loan Document or any Guaranteed Obligations;

(G) Bank’s exercise or non-exercise of any power, right or remedy with respect to any Guaranteed Obligations or any collateral therefor;

(H) Bank’s vote, claim, distribution, election, acceptance, action or inaction in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law; or

(I) any other guaranty, whether by such Subsidiary Guarantor or any other Person, of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other indebtedness, obligations or liabilities of Borrower to Bank.

(e) Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby unconditionally consents and agrees that, without notice to or further assent from such Subsidiary Guarantor:

(i) the principal amount of the Guaranteed Obligations may be increased or decreased and additional indebtedness or obligations of Borrower under the Loan Documents may be incurred and the time, manner, place or terms of any payment under any Loan Document may be extended or changed, by one or more amendments, modifications, renewals or extensions of any Loan Document or otherwise;

(ii) the time for Borrower’s (or any other Person’s) performance of or compliance with any term, covenant or agreement on its part to be performed or observed under any Loan Document may be extended, or such performance or compliance waived, or failure in or departure from such performance or compliance consented to, all in such manner and upon such terms as Bank (as applicable under the relevant Loan Documents) may deem proper;

- 46 -

(iii) Bank may request and accept other guaranties and may take and hold security as collateral for the Guaranteed Obligations, and may, from time to time, in whole or in part, exchange, sell, surrender, release, subordinate, modify, waive, rescind, compromise or extend such other guaranties or security and may permit or consent to any such action or the result of any such action, and may apply such security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof; and

(iv) Bank may exercise, or waive or otherwise refrain from exercising, any other right, remedy, power or privilege even if the exercise thereof affects or eliminates any right of subrogation or any other right of such Subsidiary Guarantor against Borrower.

(f) Each Subsidiary Guarantor waives and agrees not to assert:

(i) any right to require Bank to proceed against Borrower, any other guarantor or any other Person, or to pursue any other right, remedy, power or privilege of Bank whatsoever;

(ii) the defense by Borrower of the statute of limitations in any action hereunder or for the collection or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations;

(iii) any defense arising by reason of any lack of corporate or other authority or any other defense of Borrower, such Subsidiary Guarantor or any other Person;

(iv) any defense based upon Bank’s errors or omissions in the administration of the Guaranteed Obligations;

(v) any rights to set-offs and counterclaims;

(vi) without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by applicable law limiting the liability of or exonerating guarantors or sureties, or that may conflict with the terms of this Section 9.6, including any and all benefits that otherwise might be available to such Subsidiary Guarantor under any of California Civil Code Sections 1432, 2809, 2810, 2815, 2819, 2839, 2845, 2848, 2849, 2850, 2899 and 3433; and

(vii) any and all notice of the acceptance of this guaranty, and any and all notice of the creation, renewal, modification, extension or accrual of the Guaranteed Obligations, or the reliance by Bank upon this guaranty, or the exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder. The Guaranteed Obligations shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted, incurred and permitted to exist in reliance upon this guaranty. Each Subsidiary Guarantor waives promptness, diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment, notice of default, dishonor or nonpayment and all other notices to or upon Borrower, each Subsidiary Guarantor or any other Person with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations.

- 47 -

(g) No Subsidiary Guarantor shall have any right to require Bank to obtain or disclose any information with respect to: the financial condition or character of Borrower or the ability of Borrower to pay and perform the Guaranteed Obligations; the Guaranteed Obligations; any collateral or other security for any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations; the existence or nonexistence of any other guarantees of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations; any action or inaction on the part of Bank or any other Person; or any other matter, fact or occurrence whatsoever. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby acknowledges that it has undertaken its own independent investigation of the financial condition of Borrower and all other matters pertaining to this guaranty and further acknowledges that it is not relying in any manner upon any representation or statement of Bank with respect thereto.

(h) Until the Guaranteed Obligations shall be satisfied in full and all commitments to extend credit by Bank to Borrower shall be terminated, each Subsidiary Guarantor shall not have, and shall not directly or indirectly exercise: (i) any rights that it may acquire by way of subrogation under this Section 9.6, by any payment hereunder or otherwise; (ii) any rights of contribution, indemnification, reimbursement or similar suretyship claims arising out of this Section 9.6; or (iii) any other right that it might otherwise have or acquire (in any way whatsoever) that could entitle it at any time to share or participate in any right, remedy or security of Bank as against any Borrower or other guarantors or any other Person, whether in connection with this Section 9.6, any of the other Loan Documents or otherwise. If any amount shall be paid to any Subsidiary Guarantor on account of the foregoing rights at any time when all the Guaranteed Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of Bank and shall forthwith be paid to Bank to be credited and applied to the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents.

(i) All payments on account of all indebtedness, liabilities and other obligations of Borrower to any Subsidiary Guarantor or to any other Subordinated Guarantor, whether now existing or hereafter arising, and whether due or to become due, absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, determined or undetermined (the “Subsidiary Guarantor Subordinated Debt”) shall be subject, subordinate and junior in right of payment and exercise of remedies, to the extent and in the manner set forth herein, to the prior payment in full in cash or cash equivalents of the Guaranteed Obligations. As long as any of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than unasserted contingent indemnification obligations) shall remain outstanding and unpaid, each Subsidiary Guarantor shall not accept or receive any payment or distribution by or on behalf of Borrower or any other Subsidiary Guarantor, directly or indirectly, or assets of Borrower or any other Subsidiary Guarantor, of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, including on account of the purchase, redemption or other acquisition of Subsidiary Guarantor Subordinated Debt, as a result of any collection, sale or other disposition of collateral, or by setoff, exchange or in any other manner, for or on account of the Subsidiary Guarantor Subordinated Debt (“Subsidiary Guarantor Subordinated Debt Payments”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any Subsidiary Guarantor may accept payments by or on behalf of Borrower or any other Subsidiary Guarantor made in the ordinary course of business and consistent with past practices of Borrower and the Subsidiary Guarantors.

- 48 -

If any Subsidiary Guarantor Subordinated Debt Payments shall be received in contravention of this Section 9.6, such Subsidiary Guarantor Subordinated Debt Payments shall be held in trust for the benefit of Bank and shall be paid over or delivered to Bank for application to the payment in full in cash or cash equivalents of all Guaranteed Obligations remaining unpaid to the extent necessary to give effect to this Section 9.6 after giving effect to any concurrent payments or distributions to Bank in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations.

(j) This guaranty is a continuing guaranty and agreement of subordination and shall continue in effect and be binding upon each Subsidiary Guarantor until all commitments to extend credit by Bank to Borrower shall be terminated and payment and performance in full of the Guaranteed Obligations, including Guaranteed Obligations which may exist continuously or which may arise from time to time under successive transactions, and each Subsidiary Guarantor expressly acknowledges that this guaranty shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding that there may be periods in which no Guaranteed Obligations exist. This guaranty shall continue in effect and be binding upon each Subsidiary Guarantor until actual receipt by Bank of written notice from such Subsidiary Guarantor of its intention to discontinue this guaranty as to future transactions (which notice shall not be effective until noon on the day that is five Business Days following such receipt); provided that no revocation or termination of this guaranty shall affect in any way any rights of Bank hereunder with respect to any Guaranteed Obligations arising or outstanding on the date of receipt of such notice, including any subsequent continuation, extension, or renewal thereof, or change in the terms or conditions thereof, or any Guaranteed Obligations made or created after such date to the extent made or created pursuant to a legally binding commitment of Bank in existence as of the date of such revocation (collectively, “Existing Guaranteed Obligations”), and the sole effect of such notice shall be to exclude from this guaranty Guaranteed Obligations thereafter arising which are unconnected to any Existing Guaranteed Obligations.

(k) This guaranty shall continue to be effective or shall be reinstated and revived, as the case may be, if, for any reason, any payment of the Guaranteed Obligations by or on behalf of Borrower (or receipt of any proceeds of collateral) shall be rescinded, invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, voided or otherwise required to be repaid to Borrower, its estate, trustee, receiver or any other Person (including under any Bankruptcy Law), or must otherwise be restored by Bank, whether as a result of proceedings under any Bankruptcy Law or otherwise. All losses, damages, costs and expenses that Bank may suffer or incur as a result of any voided or otherwise set aside payments shall be specifically covered by the indemnity in favor of Bank contained in Section 9.3.

(l) The extensions of credit provided to or for the benefit of Borrower hereunder by Bank have been and are to be contemporaneously used for the benefit of Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor. It is the position, intent and expectation of the parties that Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor have derived and will derive significant and substantial benefits from the extensions of credit to be made available by Bank under the Loan Documents. Each Subsidiary Guarantor has received at least “reasonably equivalent value” (as such phrase is used in Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code, in Section 3439.04 of the California Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act and in comparable provisions of other applicable law) and more than sufficient consideration to support its obligations hereunder in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations. Immediately prior to and after and giving effect to the incurrence of each Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations under this guaranty, such Subsidiary Guarantor will be solvent.

- 49 -

(m) Each Subsidiary Guarantor acknowledges that it either has obtained the advice of legal counsel or has had the opportunity to obtain such advice in connection with the terms and provisions of this Section 9.6. Each Subsidiary Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that each of the waivers and consents set forth herein is made with full knowledge of its significance and consequences, that all such waivers and consents herein are explicit and knowing and that each Subsidiary Guarantor expects such waivers and consents to be fully enforceable.

If, while any Subsidiary Guarantor Subordinated Debt is outstanding, any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law is commenced by or against Borrower or its property, Bank, is hereby irrevocably authorized and empowered (in its own the name or in the name of any Subsidiary Guarantor or otherwise), but shall have no obligation, to demand, xxx for, collect and receive every payment or distribution in respect of all Subsidiary Guarantor Subordinated Debt and give acquittances therefor and to file claims and proofs of claim and take such other action (including voting the Subsidiary Guarantor Subordinated Debt) as it may deem necessary or advisable for the exercise or enforcement of any its the rights or interests; and each Subsidiary Guarantor shall promptly take such action as Bank may reasonably request: (A) to collect the Subsidiary Guarantor Subordinated Debt for the account of Bank and to file appropriate claims or proofs of claim in respect of the Subsidiary Guarantor Subordinated Debt; (B) to execute and deliver to Bank such powers of attorney, assignments and other instruments as it may request to enable it to enforce any and all claims with respect to the Subsidiary Guarantor Subordinated Debt; and (C) to collect and receive any and all Subsidiary Guarantor Subordinated Debt Payments.

SECTION 9.7. ENTIRE AGREEMENT; AMENDMENT. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire agreement between Borrower and Bank with respect to each credit created by the Loan Documents and supersede all prior negotiations, communications, discussions and correspondence concerning the subject matter hereof. This Agreement may be amended or modified only in writing signed by each party hereto.

SECTION 9.8. NO THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES. This Agreement is made and entered into for the sole protection and benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and no other person or entity shall be a third party beneficiary of, or have any direct or indirect cause of action or claim in connection with, this Agreement or any other of the Loan Documents to which it is not a party.

SECTION 9.9. TIME. Time is of the essence of each and every provision of this Agreement and each other of the Loan Documents.

SECTION 9.10. SEVERABILITY OF PROVISIONS. If any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity without invalidating the remainder of such provision or any remaining provisions of this Agreement.

- 50 -

SECTION 9.11. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same Agreement.

SECTION 9.12. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California.

SECTION 9.13. ARBITRATION.

(a) Arbitration. The parties hereto agree, upon demand by any party, to submit to binding arbitration all claims, disputes and controversies between or among them (and their respective employees, officers, directors, attorneys, and other agents), whether in tort, contract or otherwise in any way arising out of or relating to (i) any credit subject hereto, or any of the Loan Documents, and their negotiation, execution, collateralization, administration, repayment, modification, extension, substitution, formation, inducement, enforcement, default or termination; or (ii) requests for additional credit.

(b) Governing Rules. Any arbitration proceeding will (i) proceed in a location in California selected by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”); (ii) be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (Title 9 of the United States Code), notwithstanding any conflicting choice of law provision in any of the documents between the parties; and (iii) be conducted by the AAA, or such other administrator as the parties shall mutually agree upon, in accordance with the AAA’s commercial dispute resolution procedures, unless the claim or counterclaim is at least $1,000,000.00 exclusive of claimed interest, arbitration fees and costs in which case the arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the AAA’s optional procedures for large, complex commercial disputes (the commercial dispute resolution procedures or the optional procedures for large, complex commercial disputes to be referred to herein, as applicable, as the “Rules”). If there is any inconsistency between the terms hereof and the Rules, the terms and procedures set forth herein shall control. Any party who fails or refuses to submit to arbitration following a demand by any other party shall bear all costs and expenses incurred by such other party in compelling arbitration of any dispute. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to be a waiver by any party that is a bank of the protections afforded to it under 12 U.S.C. §91 or any similar applicable state law.

(c) No Waiver of Provisional Remedies, Self-Help and Foreclosure. The arbitration requirement does not limit the right of any party to (i) foreclose against real or personal property collateral; (ii) exercise self-help remedies relating to collateral or proceeds of collateral such as setoff or repossession; or (iii) obtain provisional or ancillary remedies such as replevin, injunctive relief, attachment or the appointment of a receiver, before during or after the pendency of any arbitration proceeding. This exclusion does not constitute a waiver of the right or obligation of any party to submit any dispute to arbitration or reference hereunder, including those arising from the exercise of the actions detailed in sections (i), (ii) and (iii) of this paragraph.

- 51 -

(d) Arbitrator Qualifications and Powers. Any arbitration proceeding in which the amount in controversy is $5,000,000.00 or less will be decided by a single arbitrator selected according to the Rules, and who shall not render an award of greater than $5,000,000.00. Any dispute in which the amount in controversy exceeds $5,000,000.00 shall be decided by majority vote of a panel of three arbitrators; provided, however, that all three arbitrators must actively participate in all hearings and deliberations. The arbitrator will be a neutral attorney licensed in the State of California or a neutral retired judge of the state or federal judiciary of California, in either case with a minimum of ten years experience in the substantive law applicable to the subject matter of the dispute to be arbitrated. The arbitrator will determine whether or not an issue is arbitratable and will give effect to the statutes of limitation in determining any claim. In any arbitration proceeding the arbitrator will decide (by documents only or with a hearing at the arbitrator’s discretion) any pre-hearing motions which are similar to motions to dismiss for failure to state a claim or motions for summary adjudication. The arbitrator shall resolve all disputes in accordance with the substantive law of California and may grant any remedy or relief that a court of such state could order or grant within the scope hereof and such ancillary relief as is necessary to make effective any award. The arbitrator shall also have the power to award recovery of all costs and fees, to impose sanctions and to take such other action as the arbitrator deems necessary to the same extent a judge could pursuant to the United States federal Rules of Civil Procedure, the California Rules of Civil Procedure or other applicable law. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The institution and maintenance of an action for judicial relief or pursuit of a provisional or ancillary remedy shall not constitute a waiver of the right of any party, including the plaintiff, to submit the controversy or claim to arbitration if any other party contests such action for judicial relief.

(e) Discovery. In any arbitration proceeding discovery will be permitted in accordance with the Rules. All discovery shall be expressly limited to matters directly relevant to the dispute being arbitrated and must be completed no later than 20 days before the hearing date. Any requests for an extension of the discovery periods, or any discovery disputes, will be subject to final determination by the arbitrator upon a showing that the request for discovery is essential for the party’s presentation and that no alternative means for obtaining information is available.

(f) Class Proceedings and Consolidations. No party hereto shall be entitled to join or consolidate disputes by or against others in any arbitration, except parties who have executed any Loan Document, or to include in any arbitration any dispute as a representative or member of a class, or to act in any arbitration in the interest of the general public or in a private attorney general capacity.

(g) Payment Of Arbitration Costs And Fees. The arbitrator shall award all costs and expenses of the arbitration proceeding.

(h) Real Property Collateral; Judicial Reference. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no dispute shall be submitted to arbitration if the dispute concerns indebtedness secured directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, by any real property unless (i) the holder of the mortgage, lien or security interest specifically elects in writing to proceed with the arbitration, or (ii) all parties to the arbitration waive any rights or benefits that might accrue to them by virtue of the single action rule statute of California, thereby agreeing that all indebtedness and obligations of the parties, and all mortgages, liens and security interests securing such indebtedness and obligations, shall remain fully valid and enforceable. If any such dispute is not

- 52 -

submitted to arbitration, the dispute shall be referred to a referee in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure Section 638 et seq., and this general reference agreement is intended to be specifically enforceable in accordance with said Section 638. A referee with the qualifications required herein for arbitrators shall be selected pursuant to the AAA’s selection procedures. Judgment upon the decision rendered by a referee shall be entered in the court in which such proceeding was commenced in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 644 and 645.

(i) Miscellaneous. To the maximum extent practicable, the AAA, the arbitrators and the parties shall take all action required to conclude any arbitration proceeding within 180 days of the filing of the dispute with the AAA. No arbitrator or other party to an arbitration proceeding may disclose the existence, content or results thereof, except for disclosures of information by a party required in the ordinary course of its business or by applicable law or regulation. If more than one agreement for arbitration by or between the parties potentially applies to a dispute, the arbitration provision most directly related to the Loan Documents or the subject matter of the dispute shall control. This arbitration provision shall survive termination, amendment or expiration of any of the Loan Documents or any relationship between the parties.

(j) Small Claims Court. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each party retains the right to pursue in Small Claims Court any dispute within that court’s jurisdiction. Further, this arbitration provision shall apply only to disputes in which either party seeks to recover an amount of money (excluding attorneys’ fees and costs) that exceeds the jurisdictional limit of the Small Claims Court.

SECTION 9.14. NO NOVATION. This Agreement amends and restates the Existing Agreement in its entirety, effective as of the Closing Date, and is not intended to constitute a novation of the obligations thereunder. Nothing contained herein shall terminate any security interests, liens, guaranties or subordinations in favor of Bank and all such security interests, guaranties and subordinations shall continue in full force and effect.

SECTION 9.15. TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT. This Agreement shall terminate (other than with respect to contingent indemnification obligations under Section 9.3) when all monetary Obligations (including, without limitation, the repayment of all Loans) have been satisfied in full and Bank has no further commitment to make credit extensions or accommodations under this Agreement.
