amendment to any provision hereof for such purpose), regardless of whether any such notice is given before or after such change in GAAP or in the application thereof, then such provision shall be interpreted on the basis of GAAP as in effect and applied immediately before such change shall have become effective until such provision shall have been amended in accordance herewith.

ARTICLE II

Amount and Terms of Credit

Section 2.01 Commitments of the Lenders.

(a) Each Lender, severally and not jointly with any other Lender, agrees, upon the terms and subject to the conditions herein set forth, to extend credit to the Borrowers on a revolving basis, in the form of Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit, in an amount not to exceed the lesser of such Lender’s Commitment or such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Borrowing Base, subject to the following limitations:


	(i) After giving effect to any Credit Extension, the aggregate outstanding amount of the Credit Extensions shall not at any time exceed the lesser of (A) the Total Commitments minus the Borrowing Base Reserve or (B) the Borrowing Base.

	(ii) No Lender, other than the Issuing Bank subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, shall be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit, and Letters of Credit shall be available solely from the Issuing Bank, subject to the ratable participation of all Lenders, as set forth in Section 2.06. The Borrowers will not at any time permit the aggregate Letter of Credit Outstandings to exceed $15,000,000.

	(iii) Subject to all of the other provisions of this Agreement, Revolving Loans that are repaid may be reborrowed prior to the Termination Date, and no new Credit Extensions shall be made to the Borrowers after the Termination Date.

(b) Each Borrowing of Revolving Loans to the Borrowers (other than Swingline Loans) shall be made by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitments. The failure of any Lender to make any Revolving Loan to the Borrowers shall neither relieve any other Lender of its obligation to fund its Revolving Loan in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement nor increase the obligation of any other Lender.

Section 2.02 Reserves; Changes to Reserves.

(a) The initial Reserves as of the Effective Date of this Agreement are those reflected in the Borrowing Base Certificate delivered by the Lead Borrower to the Co-Borrowing Base Agents pursuant to Section 4.01(e).

(b) Subject to the provisions of Section 8.03(b), the Administrative Agent may, and promptly upon the direction of any Co-Borrowing Base Agent (after consultation with

the Administrative Agent) shall, hereafter establish additional Reserves or change any of the foregoing Reserves in the exercise of its reasonable credit judgment. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Co-Borrowing Base Agent shall establish any Reserve which is duplicative of any other Reserve whether or not such Reserve falls under more than one Reserve category.

Section 2.03 Making of Revolving Loans.

(a) Revolving Loans (other than Swingline Loans) by the Lenders shall be either Prime Rate Loans or LIBO Loans as the Lead Borrower may request subject to and in accordance with this Section 2.03; provided that all Swingline Loans shall be only Prime Rate Loans. All Revolving Loans made pursuant to the same Borrowing shall, unless otherwise specifically provided herein, be Revolving Loans of the same Type. Each Lender may fulfill its Commitment with respect to any Revolving Loan by causing any lending office of such Lender to make such Revolving Loan, but any such use of a lending office shall not affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay such Revolving Loan in accordance with the terms of the applicable Note. Subject to the other provisions of this Section 2.03 and the provisions of Section 2.17, Borrowings of Revolving Loans of more than one Type may be incurred at the same time, but no more than eight (8) Borrowings of LIBO Loans may be outstanding at any time.

(b) The Lead Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent (x) three (3) Business Days’ prior telephonic notice (thereafter confirmed in writing) of each Borrowing of LIBO Loans and (y) prior telephonic notice (thereafter confirmed in writing) of each Borrowing of Prime Rate Loans on the date of the proposed Borrowing. Any such notice, to be effective, must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m., Boston time, on the applicable date. Such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the Borrowers, the amount of the proposed Borrowing (which with respect to (i) Prime Rate Loans shall be not less than $10,000, and (ii) LIBO Loans shall be not less than $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $500,000) and the date thereof (which shall be a Business Day) and shall contain disbursement instructions. Such notice shall specify whether the Borrowing then being requested is to be a Borrowing of Prime Rate Loans or LIBO Loans and, if LIBO Loans, the Interest Period with respect thereto. If no election of Interest Period is specified in any such notice for a Borrowing of LIBO Loans, such notice shall be deemed a request for an Interest Period of one (1) month. If no election is made as to the Type of Revolving Loan, such notice shall be deemed a request for Borrowing of Prime Rate Loans. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of its proportionate share of such Borrowing, the date of such Borrowing, the Type of Borrowing being requested and the Interest Period or Interest Periods applicable thereto, as appropriate. On the borrowing date specified in such notice, each Lender shall make its share of the Borrowing available at the office of the Administrative Agent at 100 Federal Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02110, no later than 2:00 p.m., Boston time, in immediately available funds. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with this Section 2.03 and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrowers a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent,

then the applicable Lender and the Borrowers severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrowers to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrowers, the interest rate applicable to Prime Rate Loans. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Revolving Loan included in such Borrowing. Upon receipt of the funds made available by the Lenders to fund any Borrowing hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall disburse such funds into a Disbursement Account or otherwise in the manner specified in the notice of borrowing delivered by the Lead Borrower and shall use reasonable efforts to make the funds so received from the Lenders available to the Borrowers no later than 4:00 p.m., Boston time, on the same day.

(c) Subject to the terms of Section 2.22, the Administrative Agent, without the request of the Lead Borrower, may pay any interest, fee, service charge, or other payment to which any Secured Party is entitled from the Borrowers pursuant hereto or any other Loan Document and may charge the same to the Loan Account notwithstanding that an Overadvance may result thereby. The Administrative Agent shall advise the Lead Borrower of any such advance or charge promptly after the making thereof. Such action on the part of the Administrative Agent shall not constitute a waiver of the Administrative Agent’s rights and the Borrowers’ obligations under Section 2.18(a). Any amount which is added to the principal balance of the Loan Account as provided in this Section 2.03(c) shall bear interest at the interest rate then and thereafter applicable to Prime Rate Loans.

Section 2.04 Overadvances.

The Agents and the Lenders have no obligation to make any Loan or to provide any Letter of Credit if an Overadvance would result. The Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, and shall, at the direction of any Co-Borrowing Base Agent, make Permitted Overadvances without the consent of the Lenders and each Lender shall be bound thereby. Any Permitted Overadvances may constitute Swingline Loans. The Permitted Overadvances shall constitute Revolving Loans and Obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, the making of a Permitted Overadvance shall be an Event of Default. The making of any such Permitted Overadvance on any one occasion shall not obligate the Administrative Agent, the Co-Borrowing Base Agents or any Lender to make or permit any Permitted Overadvance on any other occasion or to permit such Permitted Overadvances to remain outstanding.

Section 2.05 Swingline Loans.

(a) The Swingline Lender is authorized by the Lenders, but is not obligated, to make Swingline Loans at any time (subject to Section 2.05(b)) up to the amount of (i) $10,000,000 plus (ii) the principal amount of any Permitted Overadvance in the aggregate outstanding at such time, upon a notice of Borrowing from the Lead Borrower received by the Administrative Agent and the Swingline Lender (which notice, at the Swingline Lender’s

discretion, may be submitted prior to 1:00 p.m., Boston time, on the Business Day on which such Swingline Loan is requested); provided that the Swingline Lender shall not be obligated to make any Swingline Loan in its reasonable discretion if any Lender at such time is a Deteriorating Lender, unless the Swingline Lender has entered into satisfactory arrangements with the Borrowers or such Lender to eliminate the Swingline Lender’s risk of full reimbursement with respect to such Swingline Loan. Swingline Loans shall be Prime Rate Loans and shall be subject to periodic settlement with the Lenders under Section 2.07.

(b) Swingline Loans may be made only in the following circumstances: (i) for administrative convenience, the Swingline Lender may, but is not obligated to, make Swingline Loans in reliance upon the Borrowers’ actual or deemed representations under Section 4.02, that the applicable conditions for borrowing are satisfied; or (ii) for Permitted Overadvances. If the conditions for borrowing under Section 4.02 cannot be fulfilled, the Required Lenders or any Voting Borrowing Base Agent may direct the Swingline Lender to, and the Swingline Lender thereupon shall, cease making Swingline Loans (other than Permitted Overadvances) until such conditions can be satisfied or are waived in accordance with Section 9.02 hereof. Unless the Required Lenders or a Voting Borrowing Base Agent so direct the Swingline Lender, the Swingline Lender may, but is not obligated to, continue to make Swingline Loans notwithstanding that the conditions for borrowing under Section 4.02 cannot be fulfilled. No Swingline Loans shall be made pursuant to this Section 2.05(b) if the limitation set forth in Section 2.01(a)(i) would be exceeded as a result thereof.

Section 2.06 Letters of Credit.

(a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions herein set forth, the Lead Borrower may request the Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time after the date hereof and prior to the Termination Date, to issue, and subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, the Issuing Bank shall issue, for the account of any of the Borrowers one or more Letters of Credit; provided, however, that no Letter of Credit shall be issued if after giving effect to such issuance (i) the aggregate Letter of Credit Outstandings shall exceed $15,000,000, or (ii) the aggregate Credit Extensions would exceed the limitation set forth in Section 2.01(a)(i); provided further that no Letter of Credit shall be issued if the Issuing Bank shall have received notice from the Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders or any Voting Borrowing Base Agent that the conditions to such issuance have not been met; and provided further that the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue any such Letter of Credit in its reasonable discretion if: (A) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain the Issuing Bank from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Applicable Law relating to the Issuing Bank or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the Issuing Bank shall prohibit, or request that the Issuing Bank refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon the Issuing Bank with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which the Issuing Bank is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Effective Date, or shall impose upon the Issuing Bank any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Effective Date and which the Issuing Bank in good faith deems material to it; (B) the issuance of such Letter of

Credit would violate one or more policies of the Issuing Bank applicable to letters of credit generally; or (C) any Lender is at such time a Deteriorating Lender hereunder, unless the Issuing Bank has entered into satisfactory arrangements with the Borrowers or such Lender to eliminate the Issuing Bank’s risk of full reimbursement with respect to such Letter of Credit.

(b) Each Standby Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal or extension) and (ii) the date that is ten Business Days prior to the Maturity Date; provided that each Standby Letter of Credit may, upon the request of the Lead Borrower, include a provision whereby such Letter of Credit shall be renewed automatically for additional consecutive periods of twelve (12) months or less (but not beyond the date that is ten Business Days prior to the Maturity Date) unless the Issuing Bank notifies the beneficiary thereof at least thirty (30) days prior to the then-applicable expiration date that such Letter of Credit will not be renewed.

(c) Each Commercial Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date 180 days after the date of the issuance of such Commercial Letter of Credit and (ii) the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Maturity Date.

(d) Drafts drawn under each Letter of Credit shall be reimbursed by the Borrowers in dollars on the same Business Day of any such drawing by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such drawing not later than 12:00 noon, Boston time, on (i) the date that the Lead Borrower shall have received notice of such drawing, if such notice is received prior to 10:00 a.m., Boston time, on such date, or (ii) the Business Day immediately following the day that the Lead Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is received after 10:00 a.m., Boston time on the day of drawing; provided that the Lead Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 that such payment be financed with a Revolving Loan consisting of a Prime Rate Loan or Swingline Loan in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrowers’ obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Prime Rate Loan or Swingline Loan. The Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Lead Borrower by telephone of such demand for payment and whether the Issuing Bank has made or will make payment thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrowers of their obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank and the Lenders with respect to any such payment.

(e) If the Issuing Bank shall make any Letter of Credit Disbursement, then, unless the Borrowers shall reimburse the Issuing Bank in full on the date such payment is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such payment is made to but excluding the date that the Borrowers reimburse the Issuing Bank therefore, at the rate per annum then applicable to Prime Rate Loans; provided that, if the Borrowers fail to reimburse such Issuing Bank when due pursuant to Section 2.06(d), then Section 2.10 shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Lender

pursuant to Section 2.06(g) to reimburse the Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment.

(f) Immediately upon the issuance of any Letter of Credit by the Issuing Bank (or the amendment of a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof), and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Bank, the Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have sold to each Lender, and each such Lender shall be deemed unconditionally and irrevocably to have purchased from the Issuing Bank, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation, to the extent of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage, in such Letter of Credit, each drawing thereunder and the obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect thereto. Upon any change in the Commitments pursuant to Section 9.05, it is hereby agreed that with respect to all Letter of Credit Outstandings, there shall be an automatic adjustment to the participations hereby created to reflect the new Commitment Percentages of the assigning and assignee Lenders. Any action taken or omitted by the Issuing Bank under or in connection with a Letter of Credit, if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct, shall not create for the Issuing Bank any resulting liability to any Lender.

(g) In the event that the Issuing Bank makes any Letter of Credit Disbursement and the Borrowers shall not have reimbursed such amount in full to the Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section 2.06, the Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, which shall promptly notify each Lender of such failure, and each Lender shall promptly and unconditionally pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such unreimbursed payment in dollars and in same day funds. If the Issuing Bank so notifies the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent so notifies the Lenders prior to 11:00 a.m., Boston time, on any Business Day, each such Lender shall make available to the Issuing Bank such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the amount of such unreimbursed payment on such Business Day in same day funds (or if such notice is received by the Lenders after 11:00 a.m., Boston time on the day of receipt, payment shall be made on the immediately following Business Day). If and to the extent such Lender shall not have so made its Commitment Percentage of the amount of such unreimbursed payment available to the Issuing Bank, such Lender agrees to pay to the Issuing Bank, forthwith on demand such amount, together with interest thereon, for each day from such date until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. Each Lender agrees to fund its Commitment Percentage of such unreimbursed payment notwithstanding a failure to satisfy any applicable lending conditions or the provisions of, Section 2.01, Section 2.06, or ARTICLE IV, or the occurrence of the Termination Date. The failure of any Lender to make available to the Issuing Bank its Commitment Percentage of any payment under any Letter of Credit shall neither relieve any Lender of its obligation hereunder to make available to the Issuing Bank its Commitment Percentage of any payment under any Letter of Credit on the date required, as specified above, nor increase the obligation of such other Lender. Whenever any Lender has made payments to the Issuing Bank in respect of any reimbursement obligation for any Letter of Credit, such Lender shall be entitled to share ratably,

based on its Commitment Percentage, in all payments and collections thereafter received on account of such reimbursement obligation.

(h) Whenever the Borrowers desire that the Issuing Bank issue a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the Lead Borrower shall give to the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent at least two Business Days’ prior written notice (or such shorter period as may be agreed upon in writing by the Issuing Bank and the Lead Borrower) specifying the date on which the proposed Letter of Credit is to be issued, amended, renewed or extended (which shall be a Business Day), the stated amount of the Letter of Credit so requested, the expiration date of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof, and the provisions thereof. If requested by the Issuing Bank, the Borrowers shall also submit a letter of credit application on the Issuing Bank’s standard form in connection with any request for the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of a Letter of Credit.

(i) The obligations of the Borrowers to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any Letter of Credit Disbursement shall be unconditional and irrevocable and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including, without limitation: (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit; (ii) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which the Borrowers may have at any time against a beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or against the Issuing Bank or any of the Lenders, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transaction; (iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under any Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; (iv) payment by the Issuing Bank of any Letter of Credit against presentation of a demand, draft or certificate or other document which does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; (v) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrowers’ obligations hereunder; or (vi) the fact that any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. No Secured Party shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank, provided that the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.06(i) shall not be construed to excuse the Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrowers to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrowers to the extent permitted by Applicable Law) suffered by the Borrowers that are caused by the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), the Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented that appear on their face to be

in compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

(j) If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Lead Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders or any Voting Borrowing Base Agent demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrowers shall deposit in the Cash Collateral Account an amount in cash equal to 103% of the Letter of Credit Outstandings as of such date, plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon. Each such deposit shall be held by the Collateral Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the Obligations. The Collateral Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such Cash Collateral Account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Collateral Agent at the request of the Lead Borrower and at the Borrowers’ risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such Cash Collateral Account shall be applied by the Collateral Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for payments on account of drawings under Letters of Credit for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held first for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrowers for the Letter of Credit Outstandings at such time and thereafter be applied to satisfy other Obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement. If the Borrowers are required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned promptly to the Lead Borrower for the account of the Borrowers but in no event later than three (3) Business Days after all Events of Default have been waived in accordance with this Agreement.

Section 2.07 Settlements Amongst Lenders.

(a) The Swingline Lender may, at any time (but, in any event, not less frequently than weekly, as provided in Section 2.07(b)), on behalf of the Borrowers (which hereby authorize the Swingline Lender to act on its behalf in that regard), request the Administrative Agent to cause the Lenders to make a Revolving Loan (which shall be a Prime Rate Loan) in an amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the outstanding amount of Swingline Loans made in accordance with Section 2.05, which request may be made regardless of whether the conditions set forth in ARTICLE IV have been satisfied. Upon such request, each Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent the proceeds of such Revolving Loan for the account of the Swingline Lender. If the Swingline Lender requires a Revolving Loan to be made by the Lenders and the request therefor is received prior to 12:00 Noon, Boston time, on a Business Day, such transfers shall be made in immediately available funds no later than 3:00 p.m., Boston time, that day; and, if the request therefor is received after 12:00 Noon, Boston time, then no later than 3:00 p.m., Boston time, on the next Business Day. The obligation of each Lender to transfer such funds is irrevocable, unconditional and without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent or the Swingline Lender. If and to the

extent any Lender shall not have so made its transfer to the Administrative Agent, such Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, forthwith on demand such amount, together with interest thereon, for each day from such date until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

(b) The amount of each Lender’s Commitment Percentage of outstanding Revolving Loans (excluding Swingline Loans) shall be computed weekly (or more frequently in the Administrative Agent’s discretion) and shall be adjusted upward or downward based on all Revolving Loans (excluding Swingline Loans) and repayments of Revolving Loans (excluding Swingline Loans) received by the Administrative Agent as of 3:00 p.m., Boston time, on the first Business Day following the end of the period specified by the Administrative Agent (such date, the “Settlement Date”).

(c) The Administrative Agent shall deliver to each of the Lenders promptly after the Settlement Date a summary statement of the amount of outstanding Revolving Loans (excluding Swingline Loans) for the period and the amount of repayments received for the period. As reflected on the summary statement, each Lender shall transfer to the Administrative Agent (as provided below), or the Administrative Agent shall transfer to each Lender, such amounts as are necessary to insure that, after giving effect to all such transfers, the amount of Revolving Loans made by each Lender with respect to Revolving Loans (excluding Swingline Loans) shall be equal to such Lender’s applicable Commitment Percentage of Revolving Loans (excluding Swingline Loans) outstanding as of such Settlement Date. If the summary statement requires transfers to be made to the Administrative Agent by the Lenders and is received prior to 12:00 Noon, Boston time, on a Business Day, such transfers shall be made in immediately available funds no later than 3:00 p.m., Boston time, that day; and, if received after 12:00 Noon, Boston time, then no later than 3:00 p.m., Boston time, on the next Business Day. The obligation of each Lender to transfer such funds is irrevocable, unconditional and without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent. If and to the extent any Lender shall not have so made its transfer to the Administrative Agent, such Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, forthwith on demand such amount, together with interest thereon, for each day from such date until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

Section 2.08 Notes;

(a) Upon the request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Loans made by such Lender shall be evidenced by a revolving note duly executed on behalf of the Borrowers, dated the Effective Date, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B-1, payable to the order of such Lender in an aggregate principal amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment.

(b) The Swingline Loans made by the Swingline Lender shall be evidenced by a swingline note duly executed on behalf of the Borrowers, dated the Effective Date, in

substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B-2 payable to the order of the Swingline Lender in an aggregate principal amount equal to $10,000,000.

(c) Each Note shall bear interest from the date thereof on the outstanding principal balance thereof as set forth in this ARTICLE II. Each Lender is hereby authorized by the Borrowers to endorse on a schedule attached to each Note delivered to such Lender (or on a continuation of such schedule attached to such Note and made a part thereof), or otherwise to record in such Lender’s internal records, an appropriate notation evidencing the date and amount of each Loan from such Lender, each payment and prepayment of principal of any such Loan, each payment of interest on any such Loan and the other information provided for on such schedule; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender to make such a notation or any error therein shall not affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay the Loans made by such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the applicable Notes.

(d) Upon receipt of an affidavit of a Lender as to the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of such Lender’s Note and upon cancellation of such Note, the Borrowers will issue, in lieu thereof, a replacement Note in favor of such Lender, in the same principal amount thereof and otherwise of like tenor.

Section 2.09 Interest on Loans.

(a) Revolving Loans.


	(i) Subject to Section 2.10, each Prime Rate Loan shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days, as applicable) at a rate per annum that shall be equal to the then Prime Rate, plus the Applicable Margin for Prime Rate Loans.

	(ii) Subject to Section 2.10, each LIBO Loan shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) at a rate per annum equal, during each Interest Period applicable thereto, to the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period, plus the Applicable Margin for LIBO Loans.

	(iii) Accrued interest on all Revolving Loans shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto, at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise), after such maturity on demand and (with respect to LIBO Loans) upon any repayment or prepayment thereof (on the amount prepaid).

Section 2.10 Default Interest.

Effective upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and at all times thereafter while such Event of Default is continuing, at the option of the Administrative Agent or upon the direction of the Required Lenders or any Voting Borrowing Base Agent, interest shall accrue on all outstanding Revolving Loans (including Swingline Loans) (after as well as before judgment, as and to the extent permitted by law) at a rate per annum (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) equal to the rate (including the Applicable

Margin) in effect from time to time plus two percent (2.00%) per annum, and such interest shall be payable on demand.

Section 2.11 Certain Fees.

The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent and BAS, for their own respective accounts and for the account of the Lenders, as applicable, the fees set forth in the Fee Letter as and when payment of such fees is due as therein set forth.

Section 2.12 Commitment Fee and Line Fee.

The Commitment Fee and Line Fee shall be payable at the times and in the manner set forth below:

(a) The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, a commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”) equal to 0.75% per annum (on the basis of actual days elapsed in a year of 360 days) of the average daily balance of the Unused Commitment for each day commencing on and including the Effective Date and ending on but excluding the Termination Date. The Commitment Fee so accrued in any calendar quarter shall be payable in arrears on the first Business Day of the immediately succeeding calendar quarter, except that all Commitment Fees so accrued as of the Termination Date shall be payable on the Termination Date.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall remit to each Lender a portion (referred to herein as the “Line Fee”) of the Commitment Fee actually received by Administrative Agent under Section 2.12(a) equal to 0.75% per annum (on the basis of actual days elapsed in a year of 360 days) of the average daily balance for each day, commencing on and including the Effective Date and ending on but excluding the Termination Date, of the excess of (i) such Lender’s Commitment over (ii) an amount equal to the sum of (x) such Lender’s Commitment Percentage multiplied by the principal amount of Revolving Loans then outstanding plus (y) such Lender’s Commitment Percentage multiplied by the then Letter of Credit Outstandings; provided, however, that for purposes of calculating the share of the Line Fee due to any Lender which is both the Swingline Lender and a Lender of other Revolving Loans, such Lender’s share shall be equal to the difference between (i) such Lender’s Commitment, and (ii) the sum of (x) such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the principal amount of all Revolving Loans then outstanding (including the principal amount of Swingline Loans then outstanding), and (y) such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the then Letter of Credit Outstandings. The Line Fee so accrued in any calendar quarter shall be payable in arrears on the first Business Day of the immediately succeeding calendar quarter, except that all Line Fees so accrued as of the Termination Date shall be payable on the Termination Date. If the Commitment Fee actually paid by the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent is insufficient to pay the Line Fee due the Lenders, the deficiency shall be paid to the Lenders by the Swingline Lender from its own funds (and the Borrowers shall have no liability with respect thereto).

Section 2.13 Letter of Credit Fees.

(a) The Borrowers shall pay the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, on the first day of each calendar quarter, in arrears, a fee (a “Letter of Credit Fee”) equal to the then Applicable Margin for LIBO Loans multiplied by the average face amount of each Letter of Credit outstanding during the subject quarter. Effective upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and at all times thereafter while such Event of Default is continuing, at the option of the Administrative Agent or upon the direction of the Required Lenders or any Voting Borrowing Base Agent, the Letter of Credit Fee shall be increased by an amount equal to two percent (2%) per annum.

(b) The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, and in addition to all Letter of Credit Fees otherwise provided for hereunder, a fronting fee in the amount of one-quarter of one percent (0.25%) on the face amount of each Letter of Credit and all other reasonable fees and charges in connection with the issuance, negotiation, settlement, amendment and processing of each Letter of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank as are customarily imposed by the Issuing Bank from time to time in connection with letter of credit transactions.


	(b) All Letter of Credit Fees shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed.

Section 2.14 Nature of Fees.

All fees shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent for the respective accounts of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders, as provided herein. All fees shall be fully earned on the date when due and shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

Section 2.15 Termination or Reduction of Commitments.

Upon at least three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers may, at any time, in whole permanently terminate, or from time to time in part permanently reduce, the Commitments. Each such partial reduction shall be in the principal amount of $1,000,000 or any integral multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof. Each such reduction or termination shall (i) be applied ratably to the Commitments of each Lender and (ii) be irrevocable when given. At the effective time of each such reduction or termination, the Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent for application as provided herein (i) the Commitment Fee accrued on the amount of the Commitments so terminated or reduced through the date thereof; and (ii) any amount by which the sum of the Credit Extensions on such date exceed the amount to which the Commitments are to be reduced effective on such date, in each case pro rata based on the amount prepaid.

Section 2.16 Alternate Rate of Interest.

If, prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a LIBO Borrowing:

(a) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period; or

(b) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that, as a result of a Change in Law after the Effective Date, the making or maintaining of their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period has become unlawful or impracticable;

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lead Borrower and the Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Lead Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Borrowing Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a LIBO Borrowing shall be ineffective and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a LIBO Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as a Borrowing of Prime Rate Loans.

Section 2.17 Conversion and Continuation of Revolving Loans.

The Lead Borrower, on behalf of the Borrowers, shall have the right at any time, on three (3) Business Days’ prior irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent (which notice, to be effective, must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 10:00 a.m., Boston time, on the third Business Day preceding the date of any conversion), (x) to convert any outstanding Borrowings of Revolving Loans (but in no event Swingline Loans) of one Type (or a portion thereof) to a Borrowing of Revolving Loans of the other Type or (y) to continue an outstanding Borrowing of LIBO Loans for an additional Interest Period, subject to the following:

(a) no Borrowing of Revolving Loans may be converted into, or continued as, LIBO Loans at any time when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

(b) if less than a full Borrowing of Revolving Loans is converted, such conversion shall be made pro rata among the Lenders based upon their Commitment Percentages in accordance with the respective principal amounts of the Revolving Loans comprising such Borrowing held by such Lenders immediately prior to such conversion;

(c) the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans being converted into or continued as LIBO Loans shall be in an integral of $100,000 and at least $500,000;

(d) each Lender shall effect each conversion by applying the proceeds of its new LIBO Loan or Prime Rate Loan, as the case may be, to its Revolving Loan being so converted;

(e) the Interest Period with respect to a Borrowing of LIBO Loans effected by a conversion or in respect to the Borrowing of LIBO Loans being continued as LIBO Loans shall commence on the date of conversion or the expiration of the current Interest Period applicable to such continuing Borrowing, as the case may be;

(f) a Borrowing of LIBO Loans may be converted only on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto;

(g) each request for a conversion or continuation of a Borrowing of LIBO Loans which fails to state an applicable Interest Period shall be deemed to be a request for an Interest Period of one (1) month; and

(h) no more than eight (8) Borrowings of LIBO Loans may be outstanding at any time.

If the Lead Borrower does not give notice to convert any Borrowing of LIBO Loans, or does not give notice to continue, or does not have the right to continue, any Borrowing as LIBO Loans, in each case as provided above, such Borrowing shall automatically be converted to a Borrowing of Prime Rate Loans at the expiration of the then-current Interest Period. The Administrative Agent shall, after it receives notice from the Lead Borrower, promptly give each Lender notice of any conversion, in whole or part, of any Revolving Loan made by such Lender.

Section 2.18 Mandatory Prepayment; Cash Collateral.

The outstanding Obligations shall be subject to mandatory prepayment as follows:

(a) If, at any time, the amount of the Credit Extensions exceeds the lesser of (i) the Total Commitments minus the Borrowing Base Reserve or (ii) the Borrowing Base, the Borrowers will immediately (A) prepay the Revolving Loans in an amount necessary to eliminate such excess, and (B) if, after giving effect to the prepayment in full of all outstanding Revolving Loans such excess has not been eliminated, deposit cash into the Cash Collateral Account in an amount equal to 103% of the Letters of Credit Outstanding.

(b) The Revolving Loans shall be repaid in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.22 hereof.

(c) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.18(a) and Section 2.18(b), outstanding Prime Rate Loans shall be prepaid before outstanding LIBO Loans are prepaid. Each partial prepayment of LIBO Loans shall be in an integral multiple of $100,000. No prepayment of LIBO Loans shall be permitted pursuant to this Section 2.18 other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto, unless the Borrowers simultaneously reimburse the Lenders for all Breakage Costs associated therewith. In order to avoid such Breakage Costs, as long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, at the request of the Lead Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall hold all amounts required to be applied to LIBO Loans in the Cash Collateral Account and will apply such funds to the applicable LIBO Loans at the end of the then pending Interest Period therefore and such LIBO Loans shall continue to bear interest at the rate set forth in Section 2.10 until the amounts in the Cash Collateral Account have been so applied (provided that the foregoing shall in no way limit or restrict the Agents’ rights upon the subsequent occurrence of an Event of Default). No partial prepayment of a Borrowing of LIBO Loans shall result in the aggregate principal amount of the LIBO Loans remaining outstanding

pursuant to such Borrowing being less than $1,000,000. Except as provided in Section 2.15, no prepayment of the Revolving Loans shall permanently reduce the Commitments.

(d) All amounts required to be applied to all Revolving Loans hereunder (other than Swingline Loans) shall be applied ratably in accordance with each Lender’s Commitment Percentage.

(e) Upon the Termination Date, the Commitments and the credit facility provided hereunder shall be terminated in full and the Borrowers shall pay, in full and in cash, all outstanding Loans and all other outstanding Obligations.

Section 2.19 Optional Prepayment of Loans; Reimbursement of Lenders.

(a) The Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay outstanding Revolving Loans in whole or in part, (x) with respect to LIBO Loans, upon at least two (2) Business Days’ prior written, telex or facsimile notice to the Administrative Agent prior to 11:00 a.m., Boston time, and (y) with respect to Prime Rate Loans, on any Business Day if written, telex or facsimile notice is received by the Administrative Agent prior to 1:00 p.m., Boston time, subject to the following limitations:


	(i) Subject to Section 2.22, all prepayments shall be paid to the Administrative Agent for application, first, to the prepayment of outstanding Swingline Loans, second, to the prepayment of other outstanding Revolving Loans ratably in accordance with each Lender’s Commitment Percentage, and third, to the funding of a cash collateral deposit in the Cash Collateral Account in an amount equal to 103% of all Letter of Credit Outstandings.

	(ii) Subject to the foregoing, outstanding Prime Rate Loans shall be prepaid before outstanding LIBO Loans are prepaid. Each partial prepayment of LIBO Loans shall be in an integral multiple of $100,000. No prepayment of LIBO Loans shall be permitted pursuant to this Section 2.19 other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto, unless the Borrowers simultaneously reimburse the Lenders for all Breakage Costs associated therewith. No partial prepayment of a Borrowing of LIBO Loans shall result in the aggregate principal amount of the LIBO Loans remaining outstanding pursuant to such Borrowing being less than $1,000,000.

	(iii) Each notice of prepayment shall specify the prepayment date, the principal amount and Type of the Revolving Loans to be prepaid and, in the case of LIBO Loans, the Borrowing or Borrowings pursuant to which such Revolving Loans were made. Each notice of prepayment shall be irrevocable and shall commit the Borrowers to prepay such Revolving Loan by the amount and on the date stated therein. The Administrative Agent shall, promptly after receiving notice from the Lead Borrower hereunder, notify each Lender of the principal amount and Type of the Revolving Loans held by such Lender which are to be prepaid, the prepayment date and the manner of application of the prepayment.

(b) The Borrowers shall reimburse each Lender on demand for any loss incurred or to be incurred by it in the reemployment of the funds released (i) resulting from any prepayment (for any reason whatsoever, including, without limitation, conversion to Prime Rate Loans or acceleration by virtue of, and after, the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default) of any LIBO Loan required or permitted under this Agreement, if such LIBO Loan is prepaid other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such LIBO Loan or (ii) in the event that after the Lead Borrower delivers a notice of borrowing under Section 2.03 in respect of LIBO Loans, such LIBO Loans are not made on the first day of the Interest Period specified in such notice of borrowing for any reason other than a breach by such Lender of its obligations hereunder or the delivery of any notice pursuant to Section 2.16. Such loss shall be the amount as reasonably determined by such Lender as the excess, if any, of (A) the amount of interest which would have accrued to such Lender on the amount so paid or not borrowed at a rate of interest equal to the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Revolving Loan, for the period from the date of such payment or failure to borrow to the last day (x) in the case of a payment or refinancing with Prime Rate Loans other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such LIBO Loan, of the then current Interest Period for such LIBO Loan or (y) in the case of such failure to borrow, of the Interest Period for such Revolving Loan which would have commenced on the date of such failure to borrow, over (B) the amount of interest which would have accrued to such Lender on such amount by investing such amount in United States Treasury securities (bills on a discounted basis shall be converted to a bond equivalent) with a maturity date closest to the last day of the applicable Interest Period (collectively, “Breakage Costs”). Any Lender demanding reimbursement for such loss shall deliver to the Lead Borrower from time to time one or more certificates setting forth the amount of such loss as determined by such Lender and setting forth in reasonable detail the manner in which such amount was determined.

(c) In the event the Borrowers fail to prepay any Revolving Loan on the date specified in any prepayment notice delivered pursuant to Section 2.19(a), the Borrowers on demand by any Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender any amounts required to compensate such Lender for any loss incurred by such Lender as a result of such failure to prepay, including, without limitation, any loss, cost or expenses incurred by reason of the acquisition of deposits or other funds by such Lender to fulfill deposit obligations incurred in anticipation of such prepayment. Any Lender demanding such payment shall deliver to the Lead Borrower from time to time one or more certificates setting forth the amount of such loss as determined by such Lender and setting forth in reasonable detail the manner in which such amount was determined.

(d) Whenever any partial prepayment of Revolving Loans are to be applied to LIBO Loans, such LIBO Loans shall be prepaid in the chronological order of their Interest Payment Dates.

Section 2.20 Maintenance of Loan Account; Statements of Account.

(a) The Administrative Agent shall maintain an account on its books in the name of the Borrowers (the “Loan Account”) which will reflect (i) all Swingline Loans, all Revolving Loans and other advances made by the Lenders to the Borrowers or for the

Borrowers’ account pursuant to the Loan Documents, (ii) all Letter of Credit Disbursements, fees and interest that have become payable as herein set forth, and (iii) any and all other Obligations that have become payable.

(b) The Loan Account will be credited with all amounts received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrowers or otherwise for the Borrowers’ account, including all amounts received in the Concentration Account, and the amounts so credited shall be applied as set forth in Section 2.22 of this Agreement or Section 6.02 of the Security Agreement, as applicable. After the end of each month, the Administrative Agent shall send to the Lead Borrower a statement accounting for the charges, loans, advances and other transactions occurring among and between the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrowers during that month. The monthly statements shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding on the Loan Parties, unless otherwise objected to in writing by the Lead Borrower within thirty (30) days after receipt of the monthly statement.

Section 2.21 Cash Receipts.

(a) Annexed hereto as Schedule 2.21(a) is a list of all present DDAs, which Schedule includes, with respect to each depository, (i) the name and address of that depository, and (ii) the account number(s) maintained with such depository. The Lead Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent an updated Schedule 2.21(a) within fifteen (15) days after the end of each Fiscal Quarter.

(b) Annexed hereto as Schedule 2.21(b) is a list describing all arrangements to which the Borrowers are a party with respect to the payment to the Borrowers of the proceeds of all credit card charges for sales by the Borrowers.

(c) On or prior to the Effective Date, the Borrowers shall have (i) delivered to the Administrative Agent notifications to each of the Borrowers’ credit card clearinghouses and processors of notice in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (each, a “Credit Card Notification”) and (ii) entered into agency agreements with the banks maintaining the deposit accounts identified on Schedule 2.21(c) (collectively, the “Blocked Accounts”), which agreements (the “Blocked Account Agreements”) shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. The Credit Card Notifications shall direct the recipients of such notifications to comply with the written directions of the Collateral Agent received from time to time with respect to the collections of Accounts processed by such credit card clearinghouses and processors, respectively. The Blocked Account Agreements shall permit, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.21(c), the Collateral Agent to direct the third parties to such agreements to sweep from the Blocked Accounts on each Business Day all available cash receipts from the sale of Inventory and other assets, all collections of Accounts, all proceeds of Collateral, and all other cash payments received by the Borrowers from any Person or from any source or on account of any sale or other transaction or event (all such cash receipts and collections, “Cash Receipts”), to a concentration account maintained by the Administrative Agent at Bank of America (the “Concentration Account”) or such other account as otherwise directed by the Administrative Agent. In that regard, the Borrowers shall cause the

ACH or wire transfer to a Blocked Account or to the Concentration Account, no less frequently than daily (and whether or not there is then an outstanding balance in the Loan Account) of (A) the then contents of each DDA, each such transfer to be net of an amount not to exceed $10,000 which may remain on deposit in each DDA (unless the Collateral Agent is exercising its rights and remedies under the Security Documents with respect to a substantial portion of the Collateral, in which case the entire contents of each DDA shall be swept daily); and (B) the proceeds of all credit card charges (to be paid directly by any credit card clearinghouse or processor or, if received by any Loan Party, by such Loan Party) not otherwise provided for pursuant hereto. Further, whether or not any Obligations are then outstanding, the Borrowers shall cause the ACH or wire transfer to the Concentration Account, no less frequently than daily, of the then entire ledger balance of each Blocked Account, net of an amount, not to exceed $75,000 in the aggregate, which may remain on deposit in the Blocked Accounts (unless the Collateral Agent is exercising its rights and remedies under the Security Documents with respect to a substantial portion of the Collateral, in which case the entire contents of each Blocked Account shall be swept daily). In the event that, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 2.21, the Borrowers receive or otherwise have dominion and control of any Cash Receipts, proceeds or collections, such Cash Receipts, proceeds, and collections shall be held in trust by the Borrowers for the Administrative Agent and shall not be commingled with any of the Borrowers’ other funds or deposited in any account of the Borrowers and shall, within one Business Day after receipt, either be deposited into a Blocked Account or the Concentration Account, or dealt with in such other fashion as the Borrowers may be instructed by the Administrative Agent.

(d) At the request of the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers shall deliver or shall cause to be delivered to the Administrative Agent accurate reports of all amounts deposited in the Blocked Accounts to ensure the proper transfer of funds as set forth above. If, at any time, any cash or cash equivalents owned by the Borrowers are held or invested in any manner other than in a Blocked Account that is subject to a Blocked Account Agreement or the Concentration Account, the Administrative Agent shall require the Borrowers to have all funds transferred to the Concentration Account, a Blocked Account or such other account as the Administrative Agent may direct.

(e) Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrowers may close DDAs, Blocked Accounts and Securities Accounts and/or open new DDAs, Blocked Accounts and Securities Accounts, subject to, in the case of Blocked Accounts, the execution and delivery to the Administrative Agent of appropriate Blocked Account Agreements (unless expressly waived by the Administrative Agent) consistent with the provisions of this Section 2.21 and otherwise satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrowers may terminate or enter into new arrangements with respect to the payment to the Borrowers of the proceeds of all credit card charges for sales by the Borrowers; provided, however, that the Borrowers shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a Credit Card Notification for any new arrangement promptly after entering into such new agreement.

(f) The Borrowers may also maintain one or more disbursement accounts (the “Disbursement Accounts”) to be used by the Borrowers for disbursements and payments (including payroll, sales taxes, or withholding taxes) in the ordinary course of business or as otherwise permitted hereunder; provided that such Disbursement Accounts are subject to a security interest in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of itself and the Secured Parties. The only Disbursement Accounts as of the Effective Date are those described in Schedule 2.21(f).

(g) The Concentration Account is, and shall remain, under the sole dominion and control of the Collateral Agent. The Borrowers acknowledge and agree that (i) the Borrowers have no right of withdrawal from the Concentration Account, (ii) the funds on deposit in the Concentration Account shall continue to be collateral security for all of the Obligations and (iii) the funds on deposit in the Concentration Account shall be applied as provided in Section 2.22(a).

(h) Any directives to any of the Borrowers’ credit card clearinghouses or processors or any institution at which a Blocked Account or Securities Account is maintained shall be consistent with the provisions of Section 2.21(c) above and Section 2.21(i) below.

(i) Annexed hereto as Schedule 2.21(i) is a list of all securities accounts at any institution in which any Loan Party holds any Investments (other than securities accounts located at the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or an Affiliate of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent) (collectively, with any such accounts hereafter established, the “Securities Accounts”). Within sixty (60) days after the Effective Date, the Loan Parties shall have caused each of the Investments in each of the Securities Accounts to be either (i) transferred to a Securities Account located at the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or an Affiliate of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent or (ii) liquidated, with the proceeds of such Investments delivered to the Administrative Agent for application in accordance with this Agreement.

Section 2.22 Application of Payments.

(a) So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all amounts received in the Concentration Account from any source, including the Blocked Account Banks, and all other amounts received by the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall be applied in the following order:


	(i) First, to pay fees and expense reimbursements and indemnification then due and payable to the Agents, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders, and then

	(ii) Second, to pay interest due and payable on Credit Extensions, and then

	(iii) Third, at the option of the Administrative Agent, to repay outstanding Swingline Loans, and then


	(iv) Fourth, to repay other outstanding Revolving Loans that are Prime Rate Loans and all outstanding reimbursement obligations under Letters of Credit, and then

	(v) Fifth, to repay any outstanding Revolving Loans that are LIBO Loans and all Breakage Costs due in respect of such repayment pursuant to Section 2.19(b) or, at the Lead Borrower’s option (if no Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing), to fund a cash collateral deposit to the Cash Collateral Account sufficient to pay, and with direction to pay, all such outstanding LIBO Loans on the last day of the then-pending Interest Period therefor, and then

	(vi) Sixth, to pay all other Obligations owing to the Agents, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders that are then outstanding and due and payable, and then

	(vii) Seventh, to pay all other Obligations that are then outstanding and due and payable.

(b) If at any time all Obligations then due and payable are paid in full and all Letters of Credit Outstandings shall be fully cash collateralized, then so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, any excess amounts shall be deposited in a separate cash collateral account and shall be released to the Borrowers upon the request of the Lead Borrower and utilized by the Borrowers prior to any further Revolving Loans being made. Any other amounts received by any Secured Party as contemplated by Section 2.15, Section 2.18, Section 2.19, or Section 2.21 shall also be applied in the order set forth above in this Section 2.22.

(c) After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall apply all payments in respect of any Obligations and all proceeds of the Collateral, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, in the following order:


	(i) First, to pay fees and expense reimbursements then due and payable to the Agents until paid in full, and then

	(ii) Second, to pay fees and expense reimbursements then due and payable to the Issuing Bank and the Lenders until paid in full, and then

	(iii) Third, ratably to pay interest accrued in respect of the Permitted Overadvances until paid in full, and then

	(iv) Fourth, to pay interest accrued in respect of the Swingline Loans until paid in full, and then

	(v) Fifth, ratably to pay interest accrued in respect of the Revolving Loans until paid in full, and then


	(vi) Sixth, ratably to pay principal in respect of the Permitted Overadvances until paid in full, and then

	(vii) Seventh, ratably to pay principal due in respect of the Swingline Loans until paid in full, and then

	(viii) Eighth, to the Administrative Agent, to be held by the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Issuing Bank and the Lenders, as cash collateral in an amount up to 103% of the then extant Letters of Credit Outstandings, and then

	(ix) Ninth, ratably to pay principal due in respect of the Revolving Loans until paid in full, and then

	(x) Tenth, ratably to pay any other Obligations then owing to the Swingline Lender, and then

	(xi) Eleventh, ratably to pay any other Obligations then owing to the Lenders, and then

	(xii) Twelfth, to the ratable payment of all other Obligations then due and payable, and then

	(xiii) Thirteenth, to the Lead Borrower or such other Person entitled thereto under Applicable Law.

For purposes of the foregoing (other than Section 2.22(c)(xii), “paid in full” means payment of all amounts owing under the Loan Documents according to the terms thereof, including loan fees, service fees, professional fees, interest (and specifically including interest accrued after the commencement of any insolvency or other similar proceedings under the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise), default interest, interest on interest, and expense reimbursements, except to the extent that default or overdue interest (but not any other interest) and loan fees, each arising from or related to a default, are disallowed in any insolvency or other similar proceedings under the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise; provided, however, that for the purposes of Section 2.22(c)(xii), “paid in full” means payment of all amounts owing under the Loan Documents according to the terms thereof, including loan fees, service fees, professional fees, interest (and specifically including interest accrued after the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding), default interest, interest on interest, and expense reimbursements, whether or not the same would be or is allowed or disallowed in whole or in part in any insolvency or other similar proceedings under the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise.

(d) In the event of a direct conflict between the priority provisions of this Section 2.22 and other provisions contained in any other Loan Document, it is the intention of the parties hereto that such priority provisions in such documents shall be read together and construed, to the fullest extent possible, to be in concert with each other. In the event of any

actual, irreconcilable conflict that cannot be resolved as aforesaid, the terms and provisions of this Section 2.22 shall control and govern.

(e) All credits against the Obligations shall be conditioned upon final payment to the Administrative Agent of the items giving rise to such credits and shall be subject to one Business Day’s clearance and collection. If any item deposited to the Concentration Account and credited to the Loan Account is dishonored or returned unpaid for any reason, whether or not such return is rightful or timely, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to reverse such credit and charge the amount of such item to the Loan Account and the Borrowers shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders against all claims and losses resulting from such dishonor or return.

Section 2.23 Increased Costs.

(a) If any Change in Law shall:


	(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender or any holding company of any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate) or the Issuing Bank; or

	(ii) impose on any Lender or the Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition (not including, for the avoidance of doubt, any condition with respect to Taxes, which shall only give rise to additional payments to the extent provided by Section 2.26) affecting this Agreement or LIBO Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

	and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any LIBO Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or the Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or the Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrowers will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. For the avoidance of doubt, each such Lender and the Issuing Bank shall be entitled to payment under this Section 2.23 with respect to a Change in Law, unless the increased cost (including, without limitation, any Tax) to such Lender or the Issuing Bank is a result of a failure by such Lender or the Issuing Bank to (i) comply with such Change in Law (including FATCA), or (ii) to furnish any documentation required for the Borrowers, such Lender or the Issuing Bank to comply with their respective obligations under such Change in Law.

(b) If any Lender or the Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such

Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrowers will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) A certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section and setting forth in reasonable detail the manner in which such amount or amounts were determined shall be delivered to the Lead Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) Business Days after receipt thereof.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section within ninety (90) days of the effective date of the relevant Change in Law shall constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation.

Section 2.24 Change in Legality.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement, if (x) any Change in Law shall make it unlawful for a Lender to make or maintain a LIBO Loan or to give effect to its obligations as contemplated hereby with respect to a LIBO Loan or (y) at any time any Lender reasonably determines that the making or continuance of any of its LIBO Loans has become impracticable as a result of a contingency occurring after the date hereof which adversely affects the London interbank market or the position of such Lender in the London interbank market, then, by written notice to the Lead Borrower, such Lender may (i) declare that LIBO Loans will not thereafter be made by such Lender hereunder, whereupon any request by the Lead Borrower for a LIBO Borrowing shall, as to such Lender only, be deemed a request for a Prime Rate Loan unless such declaration shall be subsequently withdrawn; and (ii) require that all outstanding LIBO Loans made by it be converted to Prime Rate Loans, in which event all such LIBO Loans shall be automatically converted to Prime Rate Loans as of the effective date of such notice as provided in paragraph (b) below. In the event any Lender shall exercise its rights under clause (i) or (ii) of this paragraph (a), all payments and prepayments of principal which would otherwise have been applied to repay the LIBO Loans that would have been made by such Lender or the converted LIBO Loans of such Lender shall instead be applied to repay the Prime Rate Loans made by such Lender in lieu of, or resulting from the conversion of, such LIBO Loans.

(b) For purposes of this Section 2.24, a notice to the Lead Borrower by any Lender pursuant to paragraph (a) above shall be effective, if any LIBO Loans shall then be outstanding, on the last day of the then-current Interest Period; and otherwise such notice shall be effective on the date of receipt by the Lead Borrower.

Section 2.25 Payments; Sharing of Setoff.

(a) The Borrowers shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of drawings under Letters of Credit, or of amounts payable under Section 2.19(b), Section 2.23, Section 2.26, or otherwise) prior to 11:00 a.m., Boston time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without setoff or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. Except as otherwise provided herein, if any day on which payment is due is not a Business Day, then the payment shall be due on the next day following which is a Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in computing interest and fees in connection with such payment. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices at 100 Federal Street, 9^th Floor, Boston, Massachusetts 02110 (or as the Administrative Agent may otherwise direct in writing), except payments to be made directly to the Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Section 2.19(b), Section 2.23, Section 2.26, and Section 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto and payments pursuant to other Loan Documents shall be made to the Persons specified therein. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment under any Loan Document shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, except with respect to LIBO Borrowings, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall be included in computing interest and fees in connection with such payment. All payments under each Loan Document shall be made in dollars.

(b) All funds received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay principal, unreimbursed drawings under Letters of Credit, interest and fees then due hereunder, shall be applied in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.22(e) hereof or Section 6.02 of the Security Agreement, as applicable, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal, unreimbursed drawings under Letters of Credit, interest, and fees then due to such respective parties.

(c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or participations in drawings under Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and participations in drawings under Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and participations in drawings under

Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and participations in drawings under Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrowers pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in drawings under Letters of Credit to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrowers or any Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). The Borrowers consent to the foregoing and agree, to the extent they may effectively do so under Applicable Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrowers rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrowers in the amount of such participation.

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

Section 2.26 Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrowers hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes; provided that, if the Borrowers shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that, after making all required deductions for Indemnified Taxes (including deductions for Indemnified Taxes applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.26), the Agents, the Lenders (and any assignor of a Lender, but only if such Lender’s assignor would have been entitled to an increase pursuant to this Section 2.26(a)) or the Issuing Bank (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrowers shall make such deductions, and (iii) the Borrowers shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law.

(b) In addition, the Borrowers shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law.

(c) The Borrowers shall indemnify the Agents, each Lender (and any assignor of such Lender, but only if such Lender’s assignor would have been entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 2.26(c)) and the Issuing Bank, within ten (10) Business Days after written demand therefore, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Agents, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrowers hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.26) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Lead Borrower by a Lender or the Issuing Bank, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of an Agent, a Lender or the Issuing Bank setting forth in reasonable detail the manner in which such amount was determined, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

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

(e) Any Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Lead Borrower and the Administrative Agent two copies of either United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto to establish its exemption from U.S. Federal withholding tax, or, in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming exemption from in U.S. Federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest”, a (i) Form W-8BEN, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto and (ii) a certificate representing that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a bank for purposes of Section 881(c) of the Code, (B) is not a 10-percent shareholder (within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code) of the Borrowers and (C) is not a controlled foreign corporation related to the Borrowers (within the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the Code)), properly completed and duly executed by such Foreign Lender claiming, as applicable, complete exemption from or reduced rate of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax on payments by the Borrowers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Such forms shall be delivered by each Foreign Lender on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement (or, in the case of a transferee that is a participation holder, on or before the date such participation holder becomes a transferee hereunder) and on or before the date, if any, such Foreign Lender changes its applicable lending office by designating a different lending office (a “New Lending Office”). In addition, each Foreign Lender shall deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Foreign Lender. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.26(e), a Foreign Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this Section 2.26(e) that such Foreign Lender is not legally able to deliver.

(f) Upon the request of the Lead Borrower, any Lender that is not a Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Lead Borrower two copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, properly completed and duly executed. If any Lender fails to deliver Form W-9 or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto as required herein, then the Borrowers may withhold from any payment to such party an amount equivalent to the applicable backup withholding Tax imposed by the Code, without reduction.

(g) The Borrowers shall not be required to indemnify any Lender or to pay any additional amounts to any Lender in respect of U.S. Federal withholding tax pursuant to Section 2.26(a) or Section 2.26(c) above to the extent that the obligation to pay such additional amounts would not have arisen but for a failure by such Lender to comply with the provisions of Section 2.26(e), Section 2.26(f) or Section 2.26(j). Should a Lender become subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form required hereunder, the Borrowers shall, at such Lender’s expense, take such steps as such Lender shall reasonably request to assist such Lender to recover such Taxes.

(h) Each of the Lenders agrees that upon the occurrence of any circumstances entitling such party to indemnification or additional amounts pursuant to Section 2.26(a) or Section 2.26(c), such party shall use reasonable efforts to take any action (including designating a new lending office and signing any prescribed forms or other documentation appropriate in the circumstances) if such action would reduce or eliminate any Tax (including penalties or interest, as applicable) with respect to which such indemnification or additional amounts may thereafter accrue.

(i) If any Lender reasonably determines that it has actually and finally realized, by reason of a refund, deduction or credit of any Taxes paid or reimbursed by the Borrowers pursuant to subsection (a) or (c) above in respect of payments under the Loan Documents, a current monetary benefit that it would otherwise not have obtained and that would result in the total payments under this Section 2.26 exceeding the amount needed to make such Lender whole, such Lender shall pay to the Borrowers, with reasonable promptness following the date upon which it actually realizes such benefit, an amount equal to the lesser of the amount of such benefit or the amount of such excess, in each case net of all out-of-pocket expenses incurred in securing such refund, deduction or credit.

(j) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. Federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA as a result of the failure of such Lender to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Lead Borrower and the Administrative Agent such documentation as is required to be furnished pursuant to U.S. Treasury Regulations in order for the Borrowers, such Lender and the Administrative Agent to comply with their respective obligations (including any applicable reporting requirements) under FATCA.

Section 2.27 Security Interests in Collateral.

To secure their Obligations, the Loan Parties shall grant to the Collateral Agent, for its benefit and the benefit of the Secured Parties, a first priority security interest in all of the Collateral pursuant to, and to the extent required by, the Security Documents.

Section 2.28 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.23, or if the Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.26, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.23 or Section 2.26, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrowers hereby agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment; provided, however, that the Borrowers shall not be liable for such costs and expenses of a Lender requesting compensation if (i) such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement on a date after the Effective Date and (ii) the relevant Change in Law occurs on a date prior to the date such Lender becomes a party hereto.

(b) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.23, or if the Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.26, or if any Lender is a Deteriorating Lender or a Delinquent Lender, then the Borrowers may, at their sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.05), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Borrowers shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and Swingline Lender, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in unreimbursed drawings under Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.23 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.26, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrowers to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

ARTICLE III

Agent or any Lender in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or delivered hereunder or thereunder (as modified or supplemented by other information so furnished), taken as a whole, do not contain any material misstatement of fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. All projections, pro formas and budgets that have been or will be prepared by the Borrowers and made available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other party hereto, have been or will be prepared in good faith based upon reasonable assumptions, it being understood by the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and all the other parties hereto that such projections are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the Borrowers’ control, and that no assurances can be given that the projections will be realized.

The consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents will not give rise to any right of termination or right of renegotiation on the part of any union under any collective bargaining agreement to which any Loan Party is bound.

Section 3.15 Security Documents; Judgment Liens.

The Security Documents create in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a legal, valid and enforceable security interest in the Collateral (subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), and the Security Documents constitute, or will upon the filing of financing statements or other requisite registrations and/or the obtaining of “control”, in each case with respect to the relevant Collateral as required under the applicable Uniform Commercial Code, to the extent security interests in such Collateral can be perfected by such filings or control, the creation of a fully perfected first priority Lien on, and security interest in, and hypothecation of, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties thereunder in such Collateral (to the extent required by the Security Documents), in each case prior and superior in right to any other Person (except for Permitted Encumbrances arising under Applicable Law and having priority over the Lien of the Collateral Agent).

(b) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to the contrary, each Co-Borrowing Base Agent as of the Effective Date shall have rights at least as expansive as the rights afforded to the Administrative Agent relating to (i) (x) the definitions herein of the term “Excess Availability” and any component definition thereof, and (y) the definitions herein of the term “Borrowing Base” and any component thereof (including, without limitation, Reserves, advance rates, appraised values and eligibility criteria), (ii) reporting requirements and appraisals, examinations and collateral audits, and (iii) the establishment, determination, modification or release of the Borrowing Base Reserve or any

other Reserves (collectively, the “Borrowing Base Issues”). Any provision in this Agreement or any other Loan Document relating to a Borrowing Base Issue which would otherwise only need the consent of, or to be satisfactory or acceptable to, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent shall be deemed to require the consent of, or be satisfactory or acceptable (as the case may be) to, the Co-Borrowing Base Agents. In addition, in the event that the Administrative Agent and/or the Co-Borrowing Base Agents cannot agree on issues relating to any or all of the Borrowing Base, Excess Availability, Borrowing Base eligibility standards, Reserves, advance rates, borrowing base reporting, appraisals or examinations or any other action or determination relating to a Borrowing Base Issue, or any other matter with respect to which any Co-Borrowing Base Agent has rights hereunder, the resolution of such issue shall be to either: (x) require that the more conservative credit judgment be implemented (that is, such credit judgment that would result in the least amount of credit being available to the Borrowers under this Agreement), provided that such credit judgment is commercially reasonable and is exercised in good faith in accordance with customary business practices of the Administrative Agent for comparable asset-based lending transactions in the retail industry; or (y) decline to permit the requested action.

(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents and the foregoing to the contrary, (i) the Administrative Agent shall have sole and exclusive authority and responsibility under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (without the consent or further approval of any Co-Borrowing Base Agent) to select, employ and retain all attorneys, advisors, appraisers or other professionals retained or to be retained by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of the Co-Borrowing Base Agents (provided that (i) upon the determination by any Co-Borrowing Base Agent (after consultation with the Administrative Agent) that an advisor should be engaged, such Co-Borrowing Base Agent shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing, and the Administrative Agent shall thereupon promptly engage an advisor, and (ii) all such advisors and any other professionals retained or to be retained by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Co-Borrowing Base Agents shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Co-Borrowing Base Agents), and (ii) Wells Fargo shall not assign any of its rights, powers, duties or obligations as a Co-Borrowing Base Agent under this Agreement to any Person (other than an Affiliate of such Person designated by such Person from time to time in writing to the Administrative Agent as a Co-Borrowing Base Agent) without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.

(d) For the avoidance of doubt, the parties hereto each acknowledge and agree that this Agreement does not grant either Co-Borrowing Base Agent the authority to implement any Reserves or undertake to order any appraisals, audits or exams, but rather grants such Persons the authority to direct the Administrative Agent to do so (and, upon such direction, the Administrative Agent shall promptly do so) in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

Section 8.04 Sharing of Excess Payments.

If, at any time or times, any Secured Party shall receive (a) by payment, foreclosure, setoff, banker’s lien, counterclaim, or otherwise, any payments with respect to the Obligations owing to such Secured Party arising under, or relating to, this Agreement or the other Loan

Documents, except for any such proceeds or payments received by such Secured Party from the Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, or (b) payments from the Administrative Agent in excess of such Secured Party’s ratable portion of all such distributions by the Administrative Agent, such Secured Party shall promptly (i) turn the same over to the Administrative Agent, in kind, and with such endorsements as may be required to negotiate the same to the Administrative Agent, or in same day funds, as applicable, for the account of all of the Secured Parties and for application to the Obligations in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement, or (ii) purchase, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in the Obligations owed to the other Secured Parties so that such excess payment received shall be applied ratably as among the Secured Parties in accordance with their Commitment Percentages; provided, however, that if all or part of such excess payment received by the purchasing party is thereafter recovered from it, those purchases of participations shall be rescinded in whole or in part, as applicable, and the applicable portion of the purchase price paid therefor shall be returned to such purchasing party, but without interest except to the extent that such purchasing party is required to pay interest in connection with the recovery of the excess payment.

Section 8.05 Agreement of Required Lenders.

(a) Upon any occasion requiring or permitting an approval, consent, waiver, election or other action on the part of only the Required Lenders, action shall be taken by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Co-Borrowing Base Agents, as applicable, for and on behalf or for the benefit of all Lenders upon the direction of the Required Lenders, and any such action shall be binding on all Secured Parties;

(b) Upon any occasion requiring or permitting an approval, consent, waiver, election or other action on the part of all of the Lenders, action shall be taken by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Co-Borrowing Base Agents, as applicable, for and on behalf or for the benefit of all Lenders upon the direction of all such Lenders, and any such action shall be binding on all Secured Parties; and

(c) No amendment, modification, consent, or waiver shall be effective except in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.02.

Section 8.06 Liability of Agents.

(a) Each of the Agents, when acting on behalf of the other Agents, the Lenders, the Swingline Lender, the Issuing Bank, or the other Secured Parties, may execute any of its respective duties under this Agreement by or through any of its respective officers, agents and employees, and none of the Agents nor their respective directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable to any other Secured Party or any of them for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith, or be responsible to any Secured Party or to any of them for the consequences of any oversight or error of judgment, or for any loss, except to the extent of any liability imposed by law by reason of such Agent’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct. None of the Agents nor their respective directors, officers, agents and employees shall in any

event be liable to any other Secured Party or to any of them for any action taken or omitted to be taken by them pursuant to instructions received by them from the Required Lenders, or all Lenders, as applicable, or in reliance upon the advice of counsel selected by it. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Agents, nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees, or agents: (i) shall be responsible to any other Secured Party for the due execution, validity, genuineness, effectiveness, sufficiency, or enforceability of, or for any recital, statement, warranty or representation in, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement, document or order; or (ii) shall be required to ascertain or to make any inquiry concerning the performance or observance by any Loan Party of any of the terms, conditions, covenants, or agreements of the Loan Parties under this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents; or (iii) shall be responsible to any other Secured Party for the state or condition of any properties of the Loan Parties or any other obligor hereunder constituting Collateral for the Obligations of the Loan Parties hereunder, or any information contained in the books or records of the Loan Parties; or (iv) shall be responsible to any other Secured Party for the validity, enforceability, collectibility, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any other certificate, document or instrument furnished in connection therewith; or (v) shall be responsible to any other Secured Party for the validity, priority or perfection of any lien securing or purporting to secure the Obligations or the value or sufficiency of any of the Collateral.

(b) The Agents may execute any of their duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through their agents or attorneys-in-fact, and shall be entitled to the advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to their rights and duties hereunder or under the other Loan Documents. The Agents shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by them with reasonable care.

(c) None of the Agents, nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees, or agents, shall have any responsibility to the Loan Parties on account of the failure or delay in performance or breach by any Secured Party (other than by any Agent in its capacity as a Lender) or the Issuing Bank of any of their respective obligations under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or in connection herewith or therewith.

(d) Each of the Agents shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, or other document or writing believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper person or persons, and upon the advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without, limitation, counsel to the Loan Parties), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Agents. The Agents shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless they shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the applicable Lenders as they deem appropriate or they shall first be indemnified to their satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by them by reason of the taking or failing to take any such action.

Section 8.07 Notice of Default; Actions on Default.

(a) No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default unless such Agent has actual knowledge of the same or has received notice from a Secured Party or a Loan Party referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the event that any Agent obtains such actual knowledge or receives such a notice, such Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to each of the other Secured Parties.

(b) The Agents shall (subject to the provisions of Section 9.02) take such action with respect to any Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders. Unless and until the Agents shall have received such direction, the Agents may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to any such Default or Event of Default as they shall deem advisable in the best interest of the Lenders. In no event shall the Agents be required to comply with any such directions to the extent that the Agents believe that the Agents’ compliance with such directions would be unlawful.

Section 8.08 Lenders’ Credit Decisions.

Each Secured Party acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agents or any other Secured Party, and based on the financial statements prepared by the Loan Parties and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and investigation into the business, assets, operations, property, and financial and other condition of the Loan Parties and has made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and agrees that the Agents shall bear no responsibility therefor. Each Secured Party also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agents or any other Secured Party, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in determining whether or not conditions precedent to closing any Loan hereunder have been satisfied and in taking or not taking any action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

Section 8.09 Reimbursement and Indemnification.

Each Lender agrees (a) to reimburse (i) each Agent for such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of any expenses and fees incurred by such Agent for the benefit of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank under this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, counsel fees and compensation of agents and employees paid for services rendered on behalf of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, and any other expense incurred in connection with the administration or enforcement thereof not reimbursed by the Loan Parties and (ii) each Agent for such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of any expenses of such Agent incurred for the benefit of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank that the Loan Parties have agreed to reimburse pursuant to Section 9.03 and has failed to so reimburse and (b) to indemnify and hold harmless each Agent and its directors, officers, employees, or agents, on demand, in the amount of such Lender’s

Commitment Percentage, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses, or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against it or any of them in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by it or any of them under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to the extent not reimbursed by the Loan Parties (except such as shall result from their respective gross negligence or willful misconduct). The provisions of this Section 8.09 shall survive the repayment of the Obligations and the termination of the Commitments.

Section 8.10 Rights of Agents.

It is understood and agreed that each of the Agents shall have the same rights and powers hereunder (including the right to give such instructions) as the other Lenders and may exercise such rights and powers, as well as its rights and powers under other agreements and instruments to which it is or may be party, and engage in other transactions with the Loan Parties, as though it were not the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or a Co-Borrowing Base Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each of the Agents and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of commercial or investment banking, trust, advisory or other business with the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries and Affiliates as if it were not an Agent hereunder.

Section 8.11 Notice of Transfer.

The Agents may deem and treat a Lender party to this Agreement as the owner of such Lender’s portion of the Loans for all purposes, unless and until, and except to the extent, an Assignment and Acceptance shall have become effective as set forth in Section 9.05(b).

Section 8.12 Successor Agent.

Any Agent may resign at any time by giving five (5) Business Days written notice thereof to the other Agents, the Lenders and the Lead Borrower. Upon any such resignation of any Agent, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent, which so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Lead Borrower (whose consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the other Agents, the Lenders, the Swingline Lender, and the Issuing Bank, appoint a successor Agent which shall be a Person capable of complying with all of the duties of such Agent (and, if applicable, the Issuing Bank) hereunder (in the opinion of the retiring Agent and as certified to the Lenders in writing by such successor Agent) which, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Lead Borrower (whose consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its

100

duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder as such Agent, the provisions of this ARTICLE VIII shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was such Agent under this Agreement.

Section 8.13 Reports and Financial Statements.

Promptly after receipt thereof from the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent shall remit to each Lender, each Co-Borrowing Base Agent and the Collateral Agent copies of all financial statements required to be delivered by the Borrowers hereunder. Promptly after receipt thereof, the Administrative Agent shall remit to each Lender, each Co-Borrowing Base Agent and the Collateral Agent all commercial finance examinations and appraisals of the Collateral received by the Administrative Agent.

Section 8.14 Deteriorating and Delinquent Lenders.

(a) If for any reason any Lender shall become a Deteriorating Lender or such Lender (i) shall fail or refuse to abide by its obligations under this Agreement, including, without limitation, its obligation to make available to the Administrative Agent its Commitment Percentage of any Revolving Loans, expenses or setoff or purchase its Commitment Percentage of a participation interest in the Swingline Loans or Letter of Credit Outstandings, and such failure is not cured within ten (10) days after receipt from the Administrative Agent of written notice thereof, or (ii) has been deemed insolvent or become the subject of a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding (in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii), a “Delinquent Lender”), then, in addition to the rights and remedies that may be available to Agents, other Lenders, the Loan Parties or any other party at law or in equity, and not in limitation thereof, (A) such Deteriorating Lender’s or Delinquent Lender’s right to participate in the administration of, or decision-making rights related to, the Loans, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be suspended during the pendency of such failure or refusal, (B) such Deteriorating Lender or Delinquent Lender shall be deemed to have assigned any and all payments due to it from the Loan Parties, whether on account of outstanding Loans, interest, fees or otherwise, to the remaining Non-Deteriorating Lenders and non-Delinquent Lenders for application to, and reduction of, their proportionate shares of all outstanding Loans until, as a result of application of such assigned payments the Lenders’ respective Commitment Percentage of all outstanding Loans shall have returned to those in effect immediately prior to such delinquency and without giving effect to the nonpayment causing such delinquency, and (C) at the option of the Administrative Agent, any amounts payable to such Deteriorating Lender or Delinquent Lender hereunder (whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise) shall, in lieu of being distributed to such Deteriorating Lender or Delinquent Lender, be retained by the Administrative Agent as cash collateral for future funding obligations of such Deteriorating Lender or Delinquent Lender in respect of any Revolving Loan or existing or future participating interest in any Swingline Loan or Letter of Credit. The Deteriorating Lender’s or Delinquent Lender’s decision-making and participation rights and rights to payments as set forth in clauses (A), (B) and (C) hereinabove shall be restored only upon the payment by such Deteriorating Lender or Delinquent Lender of its Commitment Percentage of any Obligations, any participation obligation, or expenses as to

101

which it is delinquent, together with interest thereon at the rate set forth in Section 2.10 hereof from the date when originally due until the date upon which any such amounts are actually paid.

(b) The non-Deteriorating Lenders and non-Delinquent Lenders shall also have the right, but not the obligation, in their respective, sole and absolute discretion, to cause the termination and assignment without any further action by a Deteriorating Lender or Delinquent Lender for no cash consideration (pro rata, based on the respective Commitments of those Lenders electing to exercise such right) of such Deteriorating Lender’s or Delinquent Lender’s Commitment to fund future Loans. Upon any such purchase of the Commitment Percentage of any Deteriorating Lender or Delinquent Lender, the Deteriorating Lender’s or Delinquent Lender’s share in future Loans and its rights under the Loan Documents with respect thereto shall terminate on the date of purchase, and the Deteriorating Lender or Delinquent Lender shall promptly execute all documents reasonably requested to surrender and transfer such interest, including, if so requested, an Assignment and Acceptance.

(c) Each Deteriorating Lender and Delinquent Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each non-Deteriorating Lender and each non-Delinquent Lender from and against any and all loss, damage or expenses, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees and funds advanced by any Agent or by any non-Deteriorating Lender or non-Delinquent Lender, on account of a Deteriorating Lender’s or Delinquent Lender’s failure to timely fund its Commitment Percentage of a Loan or to otherwise perform its obligations under the Loan Documents.

Section 8.15 Arrangers.

Notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, the Arrangers shall have no powers, rights, duties, responsibilities or liabilities with respect to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

Section 9.02 Waivers; Amendments.

(a) No failure or delay by any Secured Party in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Agents, the Lenders, the Swingline Lender, the Issuing Bank and the other Secured Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by Section 9.02(b), and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, regardless of whether the Agents, the Lenders, the Swingline Lender, or the Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default or Event of Default at the time.

(b) Neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except, in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Loan Parties and the Required Lenders or, in the case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or

103

agreements in writing entered into by the Agents and the Loan Parties that are parties thereto, in each case with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such waiver, amendment, modification or other agreement shall: (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the consent of such Lender or increase the Commitments to an amount greater than $100,000,000 without the consent of each Lender; (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or Letter of Credit Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the consent of each Lender affected thereby; (iii) postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan or Letter of Credit Disbursement, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of the Commitments or the Maturity Date, without the consent of each Lender affected thereby; (iv) change Section 2.19, Section 2.21, Section 2.22 or Section 2.25 of this Agreement or Section 6.02 of the Security Agreement, without the consent of each Lender; (v) change any of the provisions of this Section 9.02 or the definition of the term “Required Lenders”, or any other provision of any Loan Document specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights thereunder or make any determination or grant any consent thereunder, without the consent of each Lender; (vi) release any Borrower from its obligations under any Loan Document, or limit its liability in respect of such Loan Document, without the consent of each Lender; (vii) except in connection with asset sales and other dispositions permitted pursuant to Section 6.05 of this Agreement, release any material portion of the Collateral from the Liens of the Security Documents, without the consent of each Lender; (viii) change the definition of the terms “Availability”, “Borrowing Base” or “Excess Availability” or any component definition thereof if, as a result thereof, the amounts available to be borrowed by the Borrowers would be increased, without the consent of each Lender, provided that the foregoing shall not limit the discretion of the Administrative Agent or any Co-Borrowing Base Agent pursuant to clause (j) of the definition of Eligible Inventory, or to change, establish or eliminate any Reserves; (ix) increase the Permitted Overadvance, without the consent of each Lender; (x) except as expressly permitted herein, subordinate the Obligations hereunder, or the Liens granted hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, to any other Indebtedness or Lien, as the case may be, without the prior consent of each Lender; and provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Agents or the Issuing Bank without the prior written consent of the Agents or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9.02, in the event that the Lead Borrower shall request that this Agreement or any other Loan Document be modified, amended or waived in a manner which would require the consent of the Lenders pursuant to Section 9.02(b) and such amendment is approved by the Required Lenders, but not by the percentage of the Lenders set forth in said Section 9.02(b), the Lead Borrower and the Required Lenders shall be permitted to amend this Agreement without the consent of the Lender or Lenders which did not agree to the modification or amendment requested by the Lead Borrower (such Lender or Lenders, collectively the “Minority Lenders”) to provide for (w) the termination of the Commitment of each of the Minority Lenders, (x) the addition to this Agreement of one or more other financial institutions that would qualify as an Eligible Assignee or an increase in the Commitment of one or more of the Required Lenders, so that the Total Commitments after giving effect to such amendment shall be in the same amount as the Total

104

Commitments immediately before giving effect to such amendment, (y) if any Loans are outstanding at the time of such amendment, the making of such additional Loans by such new or increasing Lender or Lenders, as the case may be, as may be necessary to repay in full the outstanding Loans (including principal, interest, and fees) of the Minority Lenders immediately before giving effect to such amendment and (z) such other modifications to this Agreement or the Loan Documents as may be appropriate and incidental to the foregoing; provided that each such Minority Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in unreimbursed drawings under Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder from the assignee or Required Lender(s) increasing its Commitment (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts).

(d) No notice to or demand on any Loan Party shall entitle any Loan Party to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances. Each holder of a Note shall be bound by any amendment, modification, waiver or consent authorized as provided herein, whether or not a Note shall have been marked to indicate such amendment, modification, waiver or consent and any consent by a Lender, or any holder of a Note, shall bind any Person subsequently acquiring a Note, whether or not a Note is so marked. No amendment to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be effective against the Borrowers unless signed by the Borrowers or other applicable Loan Party.

Section 9.03 Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.

(a) The Loan Parties shall jointly and severally pay: (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agents, the Arrangers and their Affiliates in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein and the preparation, negotiation, administration, management, execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), including, without limitation, the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of (A) counsel for the Agents and the Arrangers, (B) outside consultants for the Agents, and (C) appraisers and commercial finance examiners permitted under this Agreement; (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder; and (iii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel and any outside consultants for the Agents, the Issuing Bank or the Lenders) incurred by the Agents, the Issuing Bank or the Lenders in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, or in connection with the enforcement or protection of the rights of the Agents, the Issuing Bank or the Lenders in connection with the Loan Documents (including their rights under this Section 9.03), including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans; provided that the Lenders who are not the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, Co-Borrowing Base Agents, the Arrangers or the Issuing Bank shall be entitled to reimbursement for no more than one counsel or outside consultant representing all

105

such Lenders (absent a conflict of interest, in which case the Lenders may engage and be reimbursed for additional counsel or outside consultants).

(b) The Loan Parties shall, jointly and severally, indemnify the Agents, the Arrangers, the Issuing Bank and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of: (i) the execution or delivery of any Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties to the Loan Documents of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents or any other transactions contemplated hereby; (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit); (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property currently or formerly owned or operated by any Loan Party or any of their Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to any Loan Party or any of their Subsidiaries; or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or any Affiliate of such Indemnitee (or of any officer, director, employee, advisor or agent of such Indemnitee or any such Indemnitee’s Affiliates). In connection with any indemnified claim hereunder, the Indemnitee shall be entitled to select its own counsel the Loan Parties shall promptly pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel.

(c) To the extent that any Loan Party fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Agents or the Issuing Bank under paragraphs (a) or (b) of this Section 9.03, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Agents or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such Lender’s Commitment Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount.

(d) To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, no Loan Party shall assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. The Loan Parties further agree that no Indemnitee shall have any liability to the Loan Parties, any Person asserting claims by or on behalf of any Loan Party or any other Person in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents except as a result of the Indemnitee’s gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.

106

(e) All amounts due under this Section 9.03 shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor.

Section 9.04 Designation of Lead Borrower as Borrowers’ Agent.

(a) Each Borrower hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Lead Borrower as that Borrower’s agent to obtain Loans and Letters of Credit hereunder, the proceeds of which shall be available to each Borrower for those uses as set forth herein. As the disclosed principal for its agent, each Borrower shall be obligated to the Agents and each Lender on account of Loans so made and Letters of Credit so issued hereunder as if made directly by the Lenders to that Borrower, notwithstanding the manner by which such Loans and Letters of Credit are recorded on the books and records of the Lead Borrower and of any Borrower.

(b) Each Borrower recognizes that credit available to it hereunder is in excess of and on better terms than it otherwise could obtain on and for its own account and that one of the reasons therefore is its joining in the credit facility contemplated herein with all other Borrowers. Consequently, each Borrower hereby assumes and agrees to discharge all Obligations of all other Borrowers as if the Borrower so assuming were each other Borrower.

(c) The Lead Borrower shall act as a conduit for each Borrower (including itself, as a “Borrower”) on whose behalf the Lead Borrower has requested a Loan. The Lead Borrower shall cause the transfer of the proceeds of each Loan to the (those) Borrower(s) on whose behalf such Loan was obtained. Neither the Agents nor any Lender shall have any obligation to see to the application of such proceeds.

(d) Each of the Borrowers shall remain liable to the Agents and the Lenders for the payment and performance of all Obligations (which payment and performance shall continue to be secured by all Collateral granted by each of the Borrowers) notwithstanding any determination by the Administrative Agent to cease making Loans or causing Letters of Credit to be issued to or for the benefit of any Borrower.

(e) The authority of the Lead Borrower to request Loans on behalf of, and to bind, the Borrowers, shall continue unless and until the Administrative Agent actually receives:

(i) written notice of: (i) the termination of such authority, and (ii) the subsequent appointment of a successor Lead Borrower, which notice is signed by a Financial Officer of each Borrower (other than the chief executive officer of the Lead Borrower being replaced) then eligible for borrowing under this Agreement; and

(ii) written notice from such successive Lead Borrower (A) accepting such appointment, (B) acknowledging that such removal and appointment has been effected by a Financial Officer of each Borrower, and (C) acknowledging that, from and after the date of such appointment, the newly appointed Lead Borrower shall be bound by the terms hereof, and that as used herein, the term “Lead Borrower” shall mean and include the newly appointed Lead Borrower.

107

Section 9.05 Successors and Assigns.

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that no Loan Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (and any such attempted assignment or transfer without such consent shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Secured Parties) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) Any Lender may assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that (i) except in the case of an assignment by a Lender to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, the Lead Borrower (but only if no Default or Event of Default exists and is continuing), the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank must give their prior written consent to such assignment by a Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), (ii) any assignment made by a Lender may be made only to one or more Eligible Assignees, (iii) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Revolving Loans, the amount of the Commitment or Revolving Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000, unless the Administrative Agent and the Lead Borrower otherwise consent, (iv) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations, (v) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to Section 9.05(d), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 9.05(e).

(c) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Loan Parties, shall maintain at one of its offices in Boston, Massachusetts a copy of each Assignment

108

and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans and Letter of Credit Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error and the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers, the Issuing Bank and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the processing and recordation fee referred to in Section 9.05(b) and any written consent to such assignment required by Section 9.05(b), the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(e) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Loan Parties, the Agents, and the Issuing Bank, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Loan Parties, the Agents, the Issuing Bank and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation in the Commitments, the Loans and the Letters of Credit Outstandings shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce the Loan Documents and, except as provided in the following sentence, to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents. Subject to Section 9.05(f), the Loan Parties agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.23, Section 2.24, and Section 2.25 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 9.05(b). To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.09 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.25(b) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Loan Parties, shall maintain at its offices a record of each agreement or instrument effecting any participation and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of its Participants and their rights with respect to principal amounts and other Obligations from time to time (each a “Participation Register”). The entries in each Participation Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error and the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in a Participant Register as a Participant for all purposes of this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of entitlement to benefits under Section 2.23, Section 2.24, and Section 2.25 or Section 9.09). The Participation Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers, the Issuing Bank and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

109

(f) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.23 or Section 2.26 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.26 unless (i) the Lead Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrowers, to comply with Section 2.26(e) as though it were a Lender and (ii) such Participant is eligible for exemption from the withholding Tax referred to therein, following compliance with Section 2.26(e).

(g) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to any of the twelve Federal Reserve Banks organized under Section 4 of the Federal Reserve Act, 12 U.S.C. Section 341, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

Section 9.06 Survival.

All covenants, agreements, indemnities, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that any Secured Party may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Section 2.21, Section 2.24 and Section 9.03 and ARTICLE VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof. In connection with the termination of this Agreement and the release and termination of the security interest in the Collateral, the Administrative Agent, on behalf of itself and the other Agents, the Lenders, the Swingline Lender, and the Issuing Bank, may require such assurances and indemnities as it shall reasonably deem necessary or appropriate to protect the Agents, the Lenders, the Swingline Lender, and the Issuing Bank against loss on account of such release and termination, including without limitation, with respect to credit previously applied to the Obligations that may reasonably be expected to be subsequently reversed or revoked, or to secure such assurances and indemnities, including but not limited to, requiring cash collateral for same.

110

Section 9.07 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness.

This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all contemporaneous or previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Agents, the Loan Parties and the Lenders and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

Section 9.08 Severability.

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

Section 9.09 Right of Setoff.

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Secured Party, each Participant, and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Secured Party, Participant or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Loan Parties against any of and all the Obligations of the Loan Parties now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Secured Party, Participant or Affiliate irrespective of whether or not such Secured Party, Participant or Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured; provided that such Secured Party, Participant or Affiliate shall provide the Lead Borrower with notice promptly after exercise of such right of setoff. The rights of each Secured Party, Participant and Affiliate under this Section 9.09 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Secured Party, Participant or Affiliate may have. No Secured Party will, or will permit its Participant or Affiliate, to exercise its rights under this Section 9.09 without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders. ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO REQUIRE THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR THE COLLATERAL AGENT TO EXERCISE THEIR RIGHTS OR REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO ANY OTHER COLLATERAL WHICH SECURES ANY OF THE OBLIGATIONS, AS APPLICABLE, PRIOR TO THE EXERCISE BY ANY SECURED PARTY, PARTICIPANT, OR AFFILIATE

111

112

Section 9.12 Headings.

Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

Section 9.13 Interest Rate Limitation.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts that are treated as interest on such Loan under Applicable Law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) that may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with Applicable Law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefore) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.

Section 9.14 Additional Waivers.

(a) The Obligations are the joint and several obligations of each Loan Party. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, the obligations of each Loan Party hereunder shall not be affected by (i) the failure of any Agent or any other Secured Party to assert any claim or demand or to enforce or exercise any right or remedy against any other Loan Party under the provisions of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or otherwise, (ii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or any release from any of the terms or provisions of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any other agreement, including with respect to any other Loan Party, or (iii) the failure to perfect any security interest in, or the release of, any of the security held by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party.

(b) To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, the obligations of each Loan Party hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Obligations), including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise of any of the Obligations, and shall not be subject to any defense or set-off, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Loan Party hereunder shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Obligations, or by any other act or omission that may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Loan Party or that would otherwise operate as a discharge of any Loan Party as a matter of law or equity (other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all the Obligations).

113

(c) To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Loan Party waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of any other Loan Party or the unenforceability of the Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of any other Loan Party, other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all the Obligations. The Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties may, at their election, foreclose on any security held by one or more of them by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, accept an assignment of any such security in lieu of foreclosure, compromise or adjust any part of the Obligations, make any other accommodation with any other Loan Party, or exercise any other right or remedy available to them against any other Loan Party, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of any Loan Party hereunder except to the extent that all the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash. Pursuant to Applicable Law, each Loan Party waives any defense arising out of any such election even though such election operates, pursuant to Applicable Law, to impair or to extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of such Loan Party against any other Loan Party, as the case may be, or any security.

(d) Upon payment by any Loan Party of any Obligations, all rights of such Loan Party against any other Loan Party arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or otherwise shall in all respects be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the prior indefeasible payment in full in cash of all the Obligations. In addition, any indebtedness of any Loan Party now or hereafter held by any other Loan Party is hereby subordinated in right of payment to the prior payment in full of the Obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, Loan Party may make payments to any other Loan Party on account of any such indebtedness. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, none of the Loan Parties will demand, sue for, or otherwise attempt to collect any such indebtedness.

Section 9.15 Confidentiality.

Each of the Lenders agrees that it will not disclose without the prior consent of the Lead Borrower (other than to its employees, employees of Affiliates, auditors, counsel or other professional advisors, in each case who have a need to know such Confidential Information in accordance with customary banking practices or to another Lender if the Lender or such Lender’s holding or parent company in its sole discretion reasonably determines that any such party should have access to such information) any information with respect to the Borrowers or any other Loan Party which is furnished pursuant to this Agreement (all such information, “Confidential Information”); provided that any Lender may disclose any Confidential Information: (a) as has become generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure in violation of any duty of confidentiality hereunder by such Lender or the Administrative Agent or a disclosure in violation of any duty of confidentiality hereunder known to such Lender or the Administrative Agent to have been made by any person or entity to which such Lender or the Administrative Agent has delivered such Confidential Information; (b) as may be required in any report, statement or testimony submitted to any municipal, state or federal regulatory body having or claiming to have jurisdiction over such Lender or to the Federal Reserve Board or the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or similar organizations

114

(whether in the United States or elsewhere) or their successors; (c) as may be required in response to any summons or subpoena or in connection with any litigation; provided, however, that if the Lender is able to do so prior to complying with the summons or subpoena, such Lender shall provide the Lead Borrower with prompt notice of such required disclosure so that the Loan Party may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy; (d) in order to comply with any law, order, regulation or ruling applicable to such Lender; (e) in connection with the enforcement of remedies under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and (f) to any prospective transferee in connection with any contemplated transfer of any of the Loans or Notes or any interest therein by such Lender provided that such prospective transferee receives such Confidential Information having been made aware of the confidential nature thereof and agrees to be bound by the terms of this Section 9.15. The Loan Parties hereby agree that the failure of a Lender to comply with the provisions of this Section 9.15 shall not relieve the Loan Parties of any of its obligations to such Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

Section 9.16 Publicity.

The Agents may issue a “tombstone” notice of the establishment of the credit facility contemplated by this Agreement and may make reference to the Lead Borrower (and may utilize any logo or other distinctive symbol associated with each Loan Party; provided that the Lead Borrower is provided with a sample for its reasonable approval and any such usage is in accordance with any trademark usage standards provided by the Lead Borrower) in connection with any advertising, promotion, or marketing undertaken by the Agents. The Loan Parties shall give the Agents one (1) business days notice of any press release prior to it being issued, which press release shall be acceptable to the Agents in its reasonable discretion.

Section 9.17 USA Patriot Act.

Each Lender that is subject to the Patriot Act and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Loan Parties that, pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of each Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify each Loan Party in accordance with the Patriot Act. No part of the proceeds of the Credit Extensions will be used by the Loan Parties, directly or indirectly, for any payment to any governmental official or employee, political party, official of a political party, candidate for political office, or anyone else acting in an official capacity, in order to obtain, retain or direct business, or obtain any improper advantage, in violation of the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended.

Section 9.18 Foreign Asset Control Regulations.

Neither of the advance of the Loans nor the use of the proceeds of any thereof will violate the Trading With the Enemy Act (50 U.S.C. § 1 et seq., as amended) (the “Trading With the Enemy Act”) or any of the foreign assets control regulations of the United States Treasury Department (31 CFR, Subtitle B, Chapter V, as amended) (the “Foreign Assets Control

115

Regulations”) or any enabling legislation or executive order relating thereto (which for the avoidance of doubt shall include, but shall not be limited to (a) Executive Order 13224 of September 21, 2001 Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions With Persons Who Commit, Threaten to Commit, or Support Terrorism (66 Fed. Reg. 49079 (2001)) (the “Executive Order”) and (b) the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 (Public Law 107-56)). Furthermore, none of the Borrowers or their Affiliates (a) is or will become a “blocked person” as described in the Executive Order, the Trading With the Enemy Act or the Foreign Assets Control Regulations or (b) knowingly engages or will engage in any dealings or transactions, or be otherwise associated, with any such “blocked person” or in any manner violative of any such order.

Section 9.19 Existing Credit Agreement Amended and Restated.

Upon satisfaction of the conditions precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement, (a) this Agreement shall amend and restate the Existing Credit Agreement in its entirety (except to the extent that definitions from the Existing Credit Agreement are incorporated herein by reference) and (b) the rights and obligations of the parties under the Existing Credit Agreement shall be subsumed within, and be governed by, this Agreement; provided, however, that the Loan Parties hereby agree that (i) the Letter of Credit Outstandings under, and as defined in, the Existing Credit Agreement on the Effective Date shall be Letter of Credit Outstandings hereunder, and (ii) all Obligations and Other Liabilities of the Loan Parties under, and as defined in, the Existing Credit Agreement shall remain outstanding, shall constitute continuing Obligations and Other Liabilities secured by the Collateral, and this Agreement shall not be deemed to evidence or result in a novation or repayment and reborrowing of such obligations and other liabilities.
