(b)                                 [Reserved].

(c)                                  Term Loan Mechanics

(i)                                     Term Loans made on the first Credit Date shall be in an aggregate face amount equal to $10,000,000 (the “Initial Credit Extension”).

(ii)                                  In order to request a Credit Extension pursuant to Section 2.1(a), the Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent a fully executed and delivered irrevocable Funding Notice no later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed Credit Date (or such shorter time as is agreed to by the Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of the Requisite Lenders)).

(iii)                               Notice of receipt of each Funding Notice, together with the amount of each Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof, if any, shall be provided by Administrative Agent to each applicable Lender by email with reasonable promptness.

(iv)                              Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, each Lender shall make the amount of its Term Loan available to Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the applicable Credit Date by wire transfer of same day funds in Dollars into the Term Loan Proceeds Deposit Account.

2.2                               Pro Rata Shares.  All Term Loans shall be made by the applicable Lenders simultaneously and proportionately to their respective Pro Rata Shares, it being understood that no Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in such other Lender’s obligation to make a Term Loan requested hereunder nor shall any Term Loan Commitment of any Lender be increased or decreased as a result of a default by any other Lender in such other Lender’s obligation to make a Term Loan requested hereunder.

2.3                               Use of Proceeds.  The proceeds of the Term Loans shall be applied by Borrower solely for working capital purposes of the Credit Parties in accordance with, and solely to the extent a need for the same is disclosed in, the Approved Budget.

2.4                               Evidence of Debt; Register; Lenders’ Books and Records; Term Loan Notes.

(a)                                 Lenders’ Evidence of Debt.  Each Lender shall maintain on its internal records an account or accounts evidencing the Obligations of Borrower to such Lender, including the amounts of the Term Loans made by it and each repayment and prepayment in respect thereof.  Any such recordation shall be conclusive and binding on Borrower, absent manifest error; provided, that the failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect any Lender’s Term Loan Commitments or Borrower’s Obligations in respect of any applicable Term Loans; and provided further, in the event of any inconsistency between the Register and any Lender’s records, the recordations in the Register shall govern.

(b)                                 Register.  Administrative Agent shall maintain at its Principal Office a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of Lenders and the Term Loan Commitments and Term Loans of each Lender from time to time (the “Register”).  The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower, and a redacted version of the Register showing the entries with respect to any Lender shall be available for inspection by such Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.  Administrative Agent shall record in the Register the Term Loan Commitments and the Term Loans (including stated interest), and each repayment or prepayment in respect of the principal amount of the Term Loans, and any such recordation shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and each Lender, absent manifest error.

(c)                                  Term Loan Notes.  If so requested by any Lender by written notice to Borrower (with a copy to Administrative Agent) at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, or at any time thereafter, Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (and/or, if applicable and if so specified in such notice, to any Person who is an assignee of such

16

Lender pursuant to Section 10.6) on the Closing Date (or, if such notice is delivered after the Closing Date, promptly after Borrower’s receipt of such notice) a Term Loan Note or Term Loan Notes to evidence such Lender’s Term Loans to such Borrower.

2.5                               Interest on Term Loans.

(a)                                 Except as otherwise set forth herein, Term Loans shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the applicable Credit Date through the repayment in full in cash thereof at a rate per annum equal to ten percent (10.0%); provided that such interest rate shall automatically increase by four percent (4.0%) on the Term Loan Maturity Date.

(b)                                 Interest payable pursuant to Section 2.5(a) shall be computed on the basis of a 360 day year for the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which it accrues.  In computing interest on any Term Loan, the date of the making of such Term Loan shall be included, and the date of payment of such Term Loan shall be excluded.

(c)                                  Interest on each Term Loan shall be payable in Dollars in arrears (i) upon any prepayment of that Term Loan, whether voluntary or otherwise, to the extent accrued on the amount being prepaid, (ii) on the first Business Day of each calendar month and (iii) on the Term Loan Maturity Date.

2.6                               Default Interest.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the principal amount of all Term Loans outstanding and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any interest payments on the Term Loans or any fees or other amounts owed hereunder, shall thereafter bear interest (including post-petition interest in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, whether or not allowed in such Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding) payable on demand (or, in the absence of demand, on the last Business Day of each calendar month) at a rate that is four percent (4.0%) per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable hereunder with respect to the Term Loans.  Payment or acceptance of the increased rates of interest provided for in this Section 2.6 is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of Administrative Agent or any Lender.

2.7                               Borrower Payment.

(a)                                 On the date of the Initial Credit Extension, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of the Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares, a non-refundable payment equal to 1.00% of the Total Term Loan Commitments of all Lenders (the “Borrower Payment”), which shall be deemed earned in full at the time of payment.  The parties hereto agree to treat the Borrower Payment for U.S. federal income tax purposes as an increase to the yield of the Term Loans, taxable as original interest discount (i.e., interest) over the remaining term of the Term Loans in accordance with the applicable rules under the Internal Revenue Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder. As such, the parties agree that no U.S. federal, state or local withholding tax should be withheld or deducted on account of the Borrower Payment to the extent that the applicable Lender has provided the documentation required under Section 2.13(e), 2.13(f) or 2.13(g), as applicable, demonstrating that no such withholding or deduction is required.

17

(b)                                 In addition to the foregoing Borrower Payment, the Borrower agrees to pay to Agents such other fees in the amounts and at the times set forth in the Agent Fee Letter.

2.8                               Voluntary Prepayments.  Any time and from time to time the Borrower may prepay any Term Loans on any Business Day in whole or in part, in an aggregate minimum amount of $500,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess of that amount.  All such prepayments shall be made upon not less than one Business Day’s prior written notice in form acceptable to the Administrative Agent (each, a “Prepayment Notice”), in each case given by Borrower to Administrative Agent by 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date required (and Administrative Agent will promptly transmit a copy of such Prepayment Notice by telefacsimile or email to each Lender).  Upon the giving of any such notice, the principal amount of the Term Loans specified in such notice shall become due and payable on the prepayment date specified therein.  Any such voluntary prepayment shall be applied as specified in Section 2.9 and shall be made together with all amounts owing in accordance with Section 2.2 and/or Section 2.5.

2.9                               Application of Prepayments.

(a)                                 Application of All Prepayments.  Any prepayment of any Term Loan pursuant to Section 2.8 shall be applied as follows:

first, to the payment of all expenses and fees of the Agents and the Lenders hereunder to the full extent thereof;

second, to the payment of any accrued interest thereon at the Default Rate, if any;

third, to the payment of any accrued interest thereon (other than that calculated at the Default Rate and paid in clause “second” above); and

fourth, to prepay Term Loans on a pro rata basis (in accordance with the respective outstanding principal amounts thereof).

With respect to any prepayment, the Administrative Agent shall determine the amounts to be allocated hereunder.  Determinations by the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be deemed conclusive and binding on the Borrower and Lenders absent manifest error.

2.10                        General Provisions Regarding Payments.

(a)                                 All payments by the Borrower of principal, interest, fees and other Obligations shall be made in Dollars in same day funds, without recoupment, setoff, counterclaim or other defense free of any restriction or condition, and delivered to Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date due, to Administrative Agent’s Account for the account of the Agents and the ratable account of the Lenders, as applicable; funds received by Administrative Agent after 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such due date may be deemed to have been paid by the Borrower on the next Business Day.

18

(b)                                 All payments in respect of the principal amount of any Term Loan shall be accompanied by payment of accrued interest on the principal amount being repaid or prepaid.

(c)                                  Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to each Lender at such address or to such account as such Lender shall indicate in writing to Administrative Agent, such Lender’s applicable Pro Rata Share of all payments and prepayments of principal and interest due hereunder, together with all other amounts due thereto, including all fees payable with respect thereto, in each case, to the extent received by Administrative Agent.

(d)                                 Whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of the payment of interest hereunder or of the commitment fees hereunder.

(e)                                  Administrative Agent may deem any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower hereunder that is not made in same day funds prior to 12:00 p.m.  (New York City time) to be a non-conforming payment.  Any such payment may, at the election of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have not been received by Administrative Agent until the later of (i) the time such funds become available funds, and (ii) the applicable next Business Day.  Interest fees shall continue to accrue on any principal as to which a non-conforming payment is made until such funds become available funds (but in no event less than the period from the date of such payment to the next succeeding applicable Business Day) at the Default Rate determined pursuant to Section 2.6 from the date such amount was due and payable until the date such amount is paid in full.

(f)                                   If an Event of Default shall have occurred and not otherwise been waived and the maturity of the Obligations shall have been accelerated pursuant to Section 8.1 all payments or proceeds received by Agents hereunder in respect of any of the Obligations shall be applied first, to pay any costs and expenses then due to any Agent in connection with the foreclosure or realization upon, the disposal, storage, maintenance or otherwise dealing with any of, the Collateral or otherwise, and indemnities and other amounts then due to any Agent under the Credit Documents until paid in full, second, to pay any costs, expenses, indemnities, fees or premiums then due to Administrative Agent under the Credit Documents until paid in full, third, ratably to pay any expenses or indemnities then due to any of the Lenders under the Credit Documents, until paid in full, fourth, ratably to pay interest due in respect of the Term Loan until paid in full, fifth, ratably to pay the principal amount of all Term Loans then outstanding until paid in full, and sixth, to pay ratably any other Obligations then due and payable.

2.11                        Ratable Sharing.  Lenders hereby agree among themselves that if any of them shall, whether by voluntary payment, through the exercise of any right of set off or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action or by the enforcement of any right under the Credit Documents or otherwise, or as adequate protection of a deposit treated as cash collateral under the Bankruptcy Code, receive payment or reduction of a proportion of the aggregate amount of principal, interest, fees and other amounts then due and owing to such Lender hereunder or under the other Credit Documents (collectively, the “Aggregate Amounts Due” to such Lender) which is greater than the proportion received by any other Lender in respect of the Aggregate Amounts

19

Due to such other Lender, then the Lender receiving such proportionately greater payment shall (a) notify Administrative Agent and each other Lender of the receipt of such payment and (b) apply a portion of such payment to purchase participations (which it shall be deemed to have purchased from each seller of a participation simultaneously upon the receipt by such seller of its portion of such payment) in the Aggregate Amounts Due to the other Lenders so that all such recoveries of Aggregate Amounts Due shall be shared by all Lenders in proportion to the Aggregate Amounts Due to them; provided, that if all or part of such proportionately greater payment received by such purchasing Lender is thereafter recovered from such Lender upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of Borrower or otherwise, those purchases to that extent shall be rescinded and the purchase prices paid for such participations shall be returned to such purchasing Lender ratably to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.  The Borrower expressly consents to the foregoing arrangement and agrees that any holder of a participation so purchased may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, set off or counterclaim with respect to any and all monies owing by the Borrower to that holder with respect thereto as fully as if that holder were owed the amount of the participation held by that holder.

2.12                        Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy.

(a)                                 Compensation For Increased Costs and Taxes.  Subject to the provisions of Section 2.13 (which shall be controlling with respect to the matters covered thereby), in the event that any Lender shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that any Change in Law, or any determination of a court or Governmental Authority that becomes effective after the date hereof, or compliance by such Lender with any guideline, request or directive issued or made after the date hereof by any central bank or other governmental or quasi-Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law): (i) subjects such Lender (or its applicable lending office) to any additional Tax (other than any Indemnified Taxes or Taxes described in clauses (a)(iii), (b) and (c) of the definition of Excluded Taxes) with respect to this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents or any of its obligations hereunder or thereunder or any payments to such Lender (or its applicable lending office) of principal, interest, fees or any other amount payable hereunder; (ii) imposes, modifies or holds applicable any reserve (including any marginal, emergency, supplemental, special or other reserve), special deposit, compulsory loan, FDIC insurance or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, or advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender or (iii) imposes any other condition (other than with respect to a Tax matter) on or affecting such Lender (or its applicable lending office) or its obligations hereunder; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make, making or maintaining Term Loans hereunder or to reduce any amount received or receivable by such Lender (or its applicable lending office) with respect thereto; then, in any such case, the Borrower shall promptly pay to such Lender, upon receipt of the statement referred to in the next sentence, such additional amount or amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Lender in its sole discretion shall determine) as may be necessary to compensate such Lender for any such increased cost or reduction in amounts received or receivable hereunder.  Such Lender shall deliver to Borrower (with a copy to Administrative Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to such Lender under this

20

Section 2.12(a), which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error.

(b)                                 Capital Adequacy Adjustment.  In the event that any Lender shall have determined that the adoption, effectiveness, phase in or applicability after the Closing Date of any Requirement of Law (or any provision thereof) regarding capital adequacy, or any Change in Law, or compliance by any Lender (or its applicable lending office) with any guideline, request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender as a consequence of, or with reference to, such Lender’s Term Loans, or participations therein or other obligations hereunder with respect to the Term Loans to a level below that which such Lender or such controlling corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, effectiveness, phase in, applicability, change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of such Lender or such controlling corporation with regard to capital adequacy), then from time to time, within five Business Days after receipt by Borrower from such Lender of the statement referred to in the next sentence, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such controlling corporation on an after-tax basis for such reduction.  Such Lender shall deliver to Borrower (with a copy to Administrative Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to Lender under this Section 2.12(b), which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error.

(a)                                 Payments to Be Free and Clear.  All sums payable by any Credit Party hereunder and under the other Credit Documents shall (except to the extent required by law) be paid free and clear of, and without any deduction or withholding on account of, any Tax.

(e)                                  Evidence of Exemption From U.S.  Withholding Tax. Each Lender that is not a “United States person” (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code) for U.S. federal income tax purposes (a “Non-U.S. Lender”) shall deliver to Administrative Agent for its own account and for transmission to Borrower, on or prior to the Closing Date (in the case of each Lender listed on the signature pages hereof on the Closing Date) or on or prior to the date of the Assignment Agreement pursuant to which it becomes a Lender (in the case of each other Lender), and at such other times as may be necessary in the determination of Borrower or Administrative Agent (each in the reasonable exercise of its discretion), (i) two original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, W-8IMY or W-8ECI (or any successor forms), properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, together with any applicable attachments (including, if such Lender is not the beneficial owner and such beneficial owner(s) would be described by clause (ii) below if it were a Lender, a certificate substantially similar to the Certificate Regarding Non-Bank Status from such beneficial owner), and such other documentation required under the Internal Revenue Code and reasonably requested by Administrative Agent or Borrower to establish that such Lender is not subject to deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax with respect to any payments to such Lender of principal, interest, fees or other amounts payable under any of the Credit Documents or is subject to deduction or withholding at a reduced rate, or (ii) if such Lender is not a “bank” or other Person described in Section 881(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and cannot deliver Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI pursuant to clause (i) above, a Certificate Regarding Non-Bank Status together with two original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or any successor form), properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, and such other documentation required under the Internal Revenue Code and reasonably requested by Administrative Agent or Borrower to establish that such Lender is not subject to deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax with respect to any payments to such Lender of interest payable under any of the Credit Documents.  Each Lender required to deliver any forms, certificates or other evidence with respect to United

22

States federal income tax withholding matters pursuant to this Section 2.13(e) hereby agrees, from time to time after the initial delivery by such Lender of such forms, certificates or other evidence, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders such forms, certificates or other evidence obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, that such Lender shall promptly deliver to Administrative Agent for its own account and for transmission to Borrower two new original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, W-8IMY or W-8ECI, or a Certificate Regarding Non-Bank Status and two original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or any successor form), as the case may be, properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, together with any applicable attachments, and such other documentation required under the Internal Revenue Code and reasonably requested by Administrative Agent or Borrower to confirm or establish that such Lender is not subject to deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax with respect to payments to such Lender under the Credit Documents or is subject to deduction or withholding at a reduced rate, or notify Administrative Agent and Borrower of its inability to deliver any such forms, certificates or other evidence.  Nothing in this Section 2.13 shall be construed to require a Lender, Agent or Participant to provide any forms or documentation that it is not legally entitled to provide.

(f)                                   Each of the Administrative Agent and any Lender that is not a Non-U.S. Lender shall deliver to Administrative Agent for its own account and for transmission to Borrower (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes an Administrative Agent or a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter as prescribed by applicable law or upon the request of Administrative Agent or Borrower), duly executed and properly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 certifying that such Administrative Agent or Lender is entitled to an exemption from U.S. backup withholding tax.

(g)                                  Each Lender shall deliver to Administrative Agent for its own account and for transmission to Borrower, upon its reasonable request, such other tax forms or other documents as shall be prescribed by applicable law and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Administrative Agent or Borrower as may be necessary for such Person to comply with its obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from payments under this Agreement and the Credit Documents to such Lender or to demonstrate, where applicable, that payments under this Agreement and the Credit Documents to such Lender are exempt from application of the U.S. withholding tax imposed pursuant to FATCA. Solely for purposes of this subsection (g), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(h)                                 If the Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of or credit against any Taxes with respect to which Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.13 it shall pay over such refund or credit to Borrower (but only to the extent of amounts paid by Borrower under this Section 2.13), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund or credit). Borrower, upon the request of such Lender, shall repay to such Lender the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental

23

Authority) in the event that such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event will the Lender be required to pay any amount to Borrower pursuant to this paragraph (h) the payment of which would place the Lender in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the Lender would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid.  This paragraph shall not be construed to require any Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information that it deems confidential or proprietary) to Borrower or any other Person.

(i)                                     Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify Administrative Agent and Borrower in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(j)                                    Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.13 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Term Loans and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Credit Document.

5.2                               Existence; Compliance with Requirements of Law.  At all times (a) preserve and keep in full force and effect its existence and take all reasonable action to maintain all rights, governmental authorizations, qualifications, privileges, licenses, permits and franchises material to its business and to conduct its business in each jurisdiction in which its business is conducted, except, in each case, (i) if such Person has total assets of $25,000 or less and such Person’s board of directors (or similar governing body) shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of such Person, and that the loss thereof is not disadvantageous in any material respect to such Person or to Lenders or (ii) in any other event, to

33

the extent that failure to do so would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and (b) comply with all Requirements of Law except to the extent that failure to comply therewith would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

In furtherance of Section 6.1(d), each of the covenants and agreements set forth in Section 7 of the Senior Credit Agreement, Article III of the 21C Indenture, Section 2 of the Bank Forbearance Agreement and Section 2 of the Notes Forbearance Agreement (including, in each case, the defined terms referenced therein) (collectively, the “Existing Covenants”) is hereby incorporated herein by reference with full force and effect as if fully set forth herein by applying the provisions thereof mutatis mutandis, and the Credit Parties and their Subsidiaries shall perform, abide by and observe, for the benefit of the Lenders, all of the Existing Covenants as incorporated herein.

35

automatically constitute Collateral, in each case, immediately prior to the incurrence of such other Lien (it being understood that the incurrence of such other Lien shall still constitute an Event of Default pursuant to Section 8.1(c)).

36

Section 8.1(c), subject to the passage of time referenced therein; provided that professional fees and expenses of the Lenders shall not be included or otherwise considered for such variance testing.

SECTION 7.                         GUARANTY

7.1                               Guaranty of the Obligations.  Subject to the provisions of Section 7.2, Guarantors jointly and severally hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guaranty to Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Beneficiaries the due and punctual payment in full in cash of all Obligations when the same shall become due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise (including amounts that would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. §362(a)) (collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”).

7.2                               Contribution by Guarantors.  All Guarantors desire to allocate among themselves (collectively, the “Contributing Guarantors”), in a fair and equitable manner, their obligations arising under this Guaranty.  Accordingly, in the event any payment or distribution is made on any date by a Guarantor (a “Funding Guarantor”) under this Guaranty such that its Aggregate Payments exceeds its Fair Share as of such date, such Funding Guarantor shall be entitled to a contribution from each of the other Contributing Guarantors in an amount sufficient to cause each Contributing Guarantor’s Aggregate Payments to equal its Fair Share as of such date.  “Fair Share” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (a) the ratio of (i) the Fair Share Contribution Amount with respect to such Contributing Guarantor, to (ii) the aggregate of the Fair Share Contribution Amounts with respect to all Contributing Guarantors multiplied by, (b) the aggregate amount paid or distributed on or before such date by all Funding Guarantors under this Guaranty in respect of the obligations Guaranteed.  “Fair Share Contribution Amount” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, the maximum aggregate amount of the obligations of such Contributing Guarantor under this Guaranty that would not render its obligations hereunder or thereunder subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or any comparable applicable provisions of state law; provided, solely for purposes of calculating the Fair Share Contribution Amount with respect to any Contributing Guarantor for purposes of this Section 7.2, any assets or liabilities of such Contributing Guarantor arising by virtue of any rights to subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification or any rights to or obligations of contribution hereunder shall not be considered as assets or liabilities of such Contributing Guarantor.  “Aggregate Payments” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (1) the aggregate amount of all payments and distributions made on or before such date by such Contributing Guarantor in respect of this Guaranty (including in respect of this Section 7.2), minus (2) the aggregate amount of all payments received on or before such date by such Contributing Guarantor from the other Contributing Guarantors as contributions under this Section 7.2.  The amounts payable as contributions hereunder shall be determined as of the date on which the related payment or distribution is made by the applicable Funding Guarantor.  The allocation among Contributing Guarantors of their obligations as set forth in this Section 7.2 shall not be construed in any way to limit the liability of any Contributing Guarantor hereunder.  Each Guarantor is a third party beneficiary to the contribution agreement set forth in this Section 7.2.

37

7.3                               Payment by Guarantors.  Subject to Section 7.2, Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree, in furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Beneficiary may have at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, that upon the failure of any Borrower to pay any of the Guaranteed Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise (including amounts that would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. §362(a)), Guarantors will upon demand pay, or cause to be paid, in Cash, to Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of Beneficiaries, an amount equal to the sum of the unpaid principal amount of all Guaranteed Obligations then due as aforesaid, accrued and unpaid interest on such Guaranteed Obligations (including interest which, but for any Borrower’s becoming the subject of a case under the Bankruptcy Code, would have accrued on such Guaranteed Obligations, whether or not a claim is allowed against any Borrower for such interest in the related bankruptcy case) and all other Guaranteed Obligations then owed to Beneficiaries as aforesaid.

7.4                               Liability of Guarantors Absolute.  Each Guarantor agrees that its obligations hereunder are irrevocable, absolute, independent and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance which constitutes a legal or equitable discharge of a guarantor or surety other than payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations.  In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, each Guarantor agrees as follows:

(a)                                 this Guaranty is a guaranty of payment when due and not of collectability.  This Guaranty is a primary obligation of each Guarantor and not merely a contract of surety;

(b)                                 Administrative Agent may enforce this Guaranty upon the occurrence of an Event of Default notwithstanding the existence of any dispute between any Borrower and any Beneficiary with respect to the existence of such Event of Default;

(c)                                  the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are independent of the obligations of Borrower and the obligations of any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) of the obligations of Borrower, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against such Guarantor whether or not any action is brought against any Borrower or any of such other Guarantors and whether or not any Borrower is joined in any such action or actions;

(d)                                 payment by any Guarantor of a portion, but not all, of the Guaranteed Obligations shall in no way limit, affect, modify or abridge any Guarantor’s liability for any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations which has not been paid; and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if Administrative Agent is awarded a judgment in any suit brought to enforce any Guarantor’s covenant to pay a portion of the Guaranteed Obligations, such judgment shall not be deemed to release such Guarantor from its covenant to pay the portion of the Guaranteed Obligations that is not the subject of such suit, and such judgment shall not, except to the extent satisfied by such Guarantor, limit, affect, modify or abridge any other Guarantor’s liability hereunder in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations;

38

(e)                                  any Beneficiary, upon such terms as it deems appropriate, without notice or demand and without affecting the validity or enforceability hereof or giving rise to any reduction, limitation, impairment, discharge or termination of any Guarantor’s liability hereunder, from time to time may (i) renew, extend, accelerate, increase the rate of interest on, or otherwise change the time, place, manner or terms of payment of the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) settle, compromise, release or discharge, or accept or refuse any offer of performance with respect to, or substitutions for, the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement relating thereto and/or subordinate the payment of the same to the payment of any other obligations; (iii) request and accept other guaranties of the Guaranteed Obligations and take and hold security for the payment hereof or the Guaranteed Obligations; (iv) release, surrender, exchange, substitute, compromise, settle, rescind, waive, alter, subordinate or modify, with or without consideration, any security for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, any other guaranties of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other obligation of any Person (including any other Guarantor) with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations; (v) enforce and apply any security now or hereafter held by or for the benefit of such Beneficiary in respect hereof or the Guaranteed Obligations and direct the order or manner of sale thereof, or exercise any other right or remedy that such Beneficiary may have against any such security, in each case as such Beneficiary in its discretion may determine consistent herewith and any applicable security agreement, including foreclosure on any such security pursuant to one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, whether or not every aspect of any such sale is commercially reasonable, and even though such action operates to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of any Guarantor against any Borrower or any security for the Guaranteed Obligations; and (vi) exercise any other rights available to it under the Credit Documents; and

(f)                                   this Guaranty and the obligations of Guarantors hereunder shall be valid and enforceable and shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment, discharge or termination for any reason (other than payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations), including the occurrence of any of the following, whether or not any Guarantor shall have had notice or knowledge of any of them: (i) any failure or omission to assert or enforce or agreement or election not to assert or enforce, or the stay or enjoining, by order of court, by operation of law or otherwise, of the exercise or enforcement of, any claim or demand or any right, power or remedy (whether arising under the Credit Documents, at law, in equity or otherwise) with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement relating thereto, or with respect to any other guaranty of or security for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or any consent to departure from, any of the terms or provisions (including provisions relating to events of default) hereof, any of the other Credit Documents or any agreement or instrument executed pursuant thereto, or of any other guaranty or security for the Guaranteed Obligations, in each case whether or not in accordance with the terms hereof or such Credit Document or any agreement relating to such other guaranty or security; (iii) the Guaranteed Obligations, or any agreement relating thereto, at any time being found to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect; (iv) the application of payments received from any source (other than payments received pursuant to the other Credit Documents or from the proceeds of any security for the Guaranteed Obligations, except to the extent such security also serves as collateral for Indebtedness other than the Guaranteed Obligations) to the payment of Indebtedness other than the Guaranteed Obligations, even though any Beneficiary might have elected to apply such payment to any part or all of the Guaranteed Obligations; (v) any Beneficiary’s consent to the change, reorganization or termination of the corporate

39

structure or existence of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries and to any corresponding restructuring of the Guaranteed Obligations; (vi) any failure to perfect or continue perfection of a security interest in any collateral which secures any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (vii) any defenses, set offs or counterclaims which any Borrower may allege or assert against any Beneficiary in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations, including failure of consideration, breach of warranty, payment, statute of frauds, statute of limitations, accord and satisfaction and usury; and (viii) any other act or thing or omission, or delay to do any other act or thing, which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor as an obligor in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations.

7.5                               Waivers by Guarantors.  Each Guarantor hereby waives, for the benefit of Beneficiaries: (a) any right to require any Beneficiary, as a condition of payment or performance by such Guarantor, to (i) proceed against any Borrower, any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Person, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security held from any Borrower, any such other guarantor or any other Person, (iii) proceed against or have resort to any balance of any Deposit Account or credit on the books of any Beneficiary in favor of any Borrower or any other Person, or (iv) pursue any other remedy in the power of any Beneficiary whatsoever; (b) any defense arising by reason of the incapacity, lack of authority or any disability or other defense of any Borrower or any other Guarantor including any defense based on or arising out of the lack of validity or the unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement or instrument relating thereto or by reason of the cessation of the liability of any Borrower or any other Guarantor from any cause other than payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations; (c) any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal; (d) any defense based upon any Beneficiary’s errors or omissions in the administration of the Guaranteed Obligations, except behavior which amounts to bad faith; (e) (i) any principles or provisions of law, statutory or otherwise, which are or might be in conflict with the terms hereof and any legal or equitable discharge of such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder, (ii) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting such Guarantor’s liability hereunder or the enforcement hereof, (iii) any rights to set offs, recoupments and counterclaims, and (iv) promptness, diligence and any requirement that any Beneficiary protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or lien or any property subject thereto; (f) notices, demands, presentments, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and notices of any action or inaction, including acceptance hereof, notices of default hereunder or any agreement or instrument related thereto, notices of any renewal, extension or modification of the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement related thereto, notices of any extension of credit to any Borrower and notices of any of the matters referred to in Section 7.4 and any right to consent to any thereof; and (g) any defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by law which limit the liability of or exonerate guarantors or sureties, or which may conflict with the terms hereof.

7.6                               Guarantors’ Rights of Subrogation, Contribution, etc.  Until the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been paid in full (other than contingent indemnification obligations that by their terms survive termination of the Credit Documents), each Guarantor hereby waives any claim, right or remedy, direct or indirect, that such Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against any Borrower or any other Guarantor or any of its assets in connection with this Guaranty or the performance by such Guarantor of its obligations hereunder, in each case whether such

40

claim, right or remedy arises in equity, under contract, by statute, under common law or otherwise and including without limitation (a) any right of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification that such Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against any Borrower with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, (b) any right to enforce, or to participate in, any claim, right or remedy that any Beneficiary now has or may hereafter have against any Borrower, and (c) any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any collateral or security now or hereafter held by any Beneficiary.  In addition, until the Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations that by their terms survive termination of the Credit Documents) shall have been paid in full, each Guarantor shall withhold exercise of any right of contribution such Guarantor may have against any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) of the Guaranteed Obligations, including any such right of contribution as contemplated by Section 7.2.  Each Guarantor further agrees that, to the extent the waiver or agreement to withhold the exercise of its rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification and contribution as set forth herein is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void or voidable for any reason, any rights of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification such Guarantor may have against any Borrower or against any collateral or security, and any rights of contribution such Guarantor may have against any such other guarantor, shall be junior and subordinate to any rights any Beneficiary may have against any Borrower, to all right, title and interest any Beneficiary may have in any such collateral or security, and to any right any Beneficiary may have against such other guarantor.  If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of any such subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification or contribution rights at any time when all Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations that by their terms survive termination of the Credit Documents) shall not have been finally paid in full, such amount shall be held in trust for Administrative Agent on behalf of Beneficiaries and shall forthwith be paid over to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Beneficiaries to be credited and applied against the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms hereof.

7.7                               Subordination of Other Obligations.  Any Indebtedness of the Borrower or any Guarantor now or hereafter held by any Guarantor (the “Obligee Guarantor”) is hereby subordinated in right of payment to the Guaranteed Obligations, and any such Indebtedness collected or received by the Obligee Guarantor after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing shall be held in trust for Administrative Agent on behalf of Beneficiaries and shall forthwith be paid over to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Beneficiaries to be credited and applied against the Guaranteed Obligations but without affecting, impairing or limiting in any manner the liability of the Obligee Guarantor under any other provision hereof.

7.8                               Continuing Guaranty.  This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and shall remain in effect until all of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations that by their terms survive termination of the Credit Documents) shall have been paid in full.  Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any right to revoke this Guaranty as to future transactions giving rise to any Guaranteed Obligations.

7.9                               Authority of Guarantors or Borrower.  It is not necessary for any Beneficiary to inquire into the capacity or powers of any Guarantor or Borrower or the officers, directors or any agents acting or purporting to act on behalf of any of them.

41

7.10                        Financial Condition of Borrower.  Any Credit Extension may be made to any Borrower or continued from time to time, without notice to or authorization from any Guarantor regardless of the financial or other condition of any Borrower at the time of any such grant or continuation.  No Beneficiary shall have any obligation to disclose or discuss with any Guarantor its assessment, or any Guarantor’s assessment, of the financial condition of any Borrower.  Each Guarantor has adequate means to obtain information from Borrower on a continuing basis concerning the financial condition of Borrower and their ability to perform its obligations under the Credit Documents and each Guarantor assumes the responsibility for being and keeping informed of the financial condition of Borrower and of all circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations.  Each Guarantor hereby waives and relinquishes any duty on the part of any Beneficiary to disclose any matter, fact or thing relating to the business, operations or conditions of Borrower now known or hereafter known by any Beneficiary.

7.11                        Bankruptcy, etc.

(a)                                 So long as any Guaranteed Obligations remain outstanding, no Guarantor shall, without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent acting pursuant to the instructions of Requisite Lenders, commence or join with any other Person in commencing any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of or against any Borrower or any other Guarantor or admit in writing or in any legal proceeding that it is unable to pay its debts as they become due.  The obligations of Guarantors hereunder shall not be reduced, limited, impaired, discharged, deferred, suspended or terminated by any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of or against any Borrower or any other Guarantor or by any defense which any Borrower or any other Guarantor may have by reason of the order, decree or decision of any court or administrative body resulting from any such Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding.

(b)                                 Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that any interest on any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations which accrues after the commencement of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding referred to in clause (a) above (or, if interest on any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations ceases to accrue by operation of law by reason of the commencement of such Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, such interest as would have accrued on such portion of the Guaranteed Obligations if such Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding had not been commenced) shall be included in the Guaranteed Obligations because it is the intention of Guarantors and Beneficiaries that the Guaranteed Obligations which are guaranteed by Guarantors pursuant hereto should be determined without regard to any rule of law or order which may relieve the Borrower of any portion of such Guaranteed Obligations.  Guarantors will permit any trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, debtor in possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors or similar person to pay Administrative Agent, or allow the claim of Administrative Agent in respect of, any such interest accruing after the date on which such Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding is commenced.

(c)                                  In the event that all or any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations are paid by the Borrower, the obligations of Guarantors hereunder shall continue and remain in full force and effect or be reinstated, as the case may be, in the event that all or any part of such payment(s) are rescinded or recovered directly or indirectly from any Beneficiary as a preference, fraudulent transfer or otherwise, and any such payments which are so rescinded or recovered shall constitute Guaranteed Obligations for all purposes hereunder.

42

SECTION 8.                         EVENTS OF DEFAULT

8.1                               Events of Default.  If any one or more of the following conditions or events shall occur:

SECTION 9.                         AGENTS

9.1                               Appointment.  Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent as the agents of such Lender under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, and each such Lender irrevocably authorizes each of the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, in such capacities, to take such actions on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, by the terms of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement or any other Credit Document, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Credit Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent.

9.2                               Delegation of Duties.  The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may execute any of their respective duties under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties.  Each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.

9.3                               Exculpatory Provisions.  Neither any Agent nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates shall be (i) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document (except to the extent that any of the foregoing are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from its or such Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by the Borrower or any Guarantor or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Credit Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by any Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Credit Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Credit Document or for any failure of the Borrower or

46

any Guarantor as a party thereto to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder.  The Agents shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Credit Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Borrower or any Guarantor or any other obligor under the Credit Documents.

9.4                               Reliance by Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent.  The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall each be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any instrument, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be.  The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 10.6.  The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall each be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Credit Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Requisite Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders) as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.  Each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents in accordance with a request of the Requisite Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Term Loans.

9.5                               Notice of Default.  Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.”  In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders and the Collateral Agent.  The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall each take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Requisite Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders); provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent each may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders.

9.6                               Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders.  Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Agents nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates have made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by any Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent to any Lender.  Each Lender

47

represents to the Agents that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower and made its own decision to extend credit hereunder and enter into this Agreement.  Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower.  Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent hereunder or under any other Credit Document, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of the Borrower or any Guarantor that may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates.

9.7                               Indemnification.  The Lenders agree to indemnify each Agent, its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact, and affiliates (collectively, the “Agent Indemnified Parties”) in their capacity as such (to the extent not timely reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), ratably according to each Lender’s respective ratio (expressed as a percentage) of the sum of such Lender’s unpaid principal amount of such Lender’s Term Loans at such time to the sum of all Lenders’ unpaid principal amount of the Loans on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have terminated and the Term Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with each Lender’s respective ratio (expressed as a percentage) of the sum of such Lender’s unpaid principal amount of such Lender’s Term Loans immediately prior to such repayment, to the sum of all Lenders’ unpaid principal amount of the Term Loans at such time), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (whether before or after the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent Indemnified Party in any way relating to or arising out of, the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Credit Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by such Agent Indemnified Party under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Agent Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.  The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of the Term Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder and the termination of this Agreement.

48

9.8                               Agent in Its Individual Capacity.  Each Agent and its affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower and each Guarantor as though such Agent were not an Agent.

9.9                               Successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent.  The Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent may resign as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, upon 30 days’ notice to the Lenders and the Borrower.  If the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, then the Requisite Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which successor agent shall (unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing) be subject to approval by the Borrower (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, and the term “Administrative Agent” or “Collateral Agent”, as the case may be, means such successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former Administrative Agent’s or Collateral Agent’s, as the case may be, rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, or any of the parties to this Agreement or any holders of the Term Loans.  If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent by the date that is 30 days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s or Collateral Agent’s, as the case may be, notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s or Collateral Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective, and the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, hereunder until such time, if any, as the Requisite Lenders and the Borrower, as applicable, appoint a successor Agent as provided for above.  After any retiring Administrative Agent’s or Collateral Agent’s resignation as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, the provisions of this Section 9 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the retiring Collateral Agent shall continue to hold the Collateral (at the Lenders’ expense) created by the Credit Documents for the benefit of the Lenders until the successor Collateral Agent has been effectively appointed pursuant to this paragraph.

9.10                        Withholding Tax.  To the extent required by any applicable law and subject to Section 2.13, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding tax.  If the Internal Revenue Service or any other authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender for any reason (including, without limitation, because the appropriate form was not delivered or not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of withholding tax ineffective), such Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent, to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not already been reimbursed by the Borrower and to the extent the following amounts are attributable solely to such Lender, for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as Taxes or otherwise, together with all reasonable expenses incurred, including legal expenses and any other out-of-pocket expenses, whether or

49

not such tax was correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

9.11                        Collateral Matters.

(a)                                 The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Collateral Agent, upon the written direction of the Requisite Lenders, to release any Lien on any of the Collateral upon payment and satisfaction of all of the Obligations in full in cash.  Upon request by the Collateral Agent or Borrower at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Collateral Agent’s authority to release any such Liens on particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 9.11(a); provided, that, (1) the Collateral Agent shall not be required to execute any document necessary to evidence such release on terms that, in the Collateral Agent’s opinion, would expose the Collateral Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Lien without recourse, representation, or warranty, and (2) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect, or impair the Obligations or any Liens (other than those expressly being released or subordinated) upon (or obligations of Borrower in respect of) all interests retained by any Credit Party, including, the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral.

(b)                                 The Collateral Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any of the Lenders to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by a Credit Party or is cared for, protected, or insured or has been encumbered, or that the Collateral Agent’s Liens have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected, or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to the Collateral Agent pursuant to any of the Credit Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission, or event related thereto, subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, the Collateral Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion, regardless of whether the Collateral Agent shall obtain its own interest in the Collateral in its capacity as one of the Lenders, and that the Collateral Agent shall have no other duty or liability whatsoever to any Lender as to any of the foregoing, except as otherwise provided herein.

(c)                                  In no event shall the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent be responsible or liable for special, indirect, or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall have any duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth herein and the permissive provisions with respect to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent set forth herein shall not be deemed to be duties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall have any responsibility for the preparing, recording, filing, re-recording, or re-filing of any financing statement, continuation statement or other instrument in any public office. In no event shall the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its

50

obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including, without limitation, strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software and hardware) services; it being understood that the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall use reasonable efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstance.

9.12                        Concerning the Collateral and Related Credit Documents.  Each Lender hereby authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to enter into this Agreement and the other Credit Documents to which it is a party.  Each Lender hereby agrees that any action taken by Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents relating to the Collateral and the exercise by Agent of its powers set forth therein or herein, together with such other powers that are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be binding upon all of the Lenders.

10.2                        Expenses.  Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated, the Borrower agrees to pay promptly, and in any event within three (3) Business Days after written demand therefore, (a) all the actual and reasonable costs and expenses of Administrative Agent and the Lenders in the preparation of the Credit Documents and any consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications thereto; (b) all the costs of furnishing all opinions by counsel for the Borrower and the other Credit Parties; (c) the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of counsel to Agents and Lenders in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution and administration of the Credit Documents and any consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications thereto and any other documents or matters requested by Borrower (including the costs and expenses of Stroock & Stroock & Lavan LLP, counsel to the Lenders, and Pryor Cashman LLP, counsel to the Agents); (d) all the actual costs and expenses of creating and perfecting Liens in favor of Collateral Agent, for the benefit of Secured Parties pursuant hereto, including filing and recording fees, search fees, and fees,

(b)                                 To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Credit Party shall assert, and each Credit Party hereby waives, any claim against Lenders, Agents and their respective Affiliates, directors, employees, attorneys or agents, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) (whether or not the claim therefor is based on contract, tort or duty imposed by any applicable legal requirement) arising out of, in connection with, as a result of, or in any way related to, this

10.4                        Set Off.  In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default each Lender and its respective Affiliates is hereby authorized by Borrower at any time or from time to time subject to the consent of Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), without notice to any Credit Party or to any other Person (other than Administrative Agent), any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of Borrower (in whatever currency) against and on account of the obligations and liabilities of Borrower to such Lender hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, including all claims of any nature or description arising out of or connected hereto, or with any other Credit Document, irrespective of whether or not (a) such Lender shall have made any demand hereunder, (b) the principal of or the interest on the Term Loans or any other amounts due hereunder shall have become due and payable pursuant to Section 2 and although such obligations and liabilities, or any of them, may be contingent or unmatured or (c) such obligation or liability is owed to a branch or office of such Lender different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligation or such Indebtedness.

10.5                        Amendments and Waivers.

(a)                                 Requisite Lenders’ Consent.  Subject to Sections 10.5(b) and 10.5(c), no amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of the Credit Documents, or consent to any departure by any Credit Party therefrom, shall in any event be effective without the written concurrence of (i) in the case of this Agreement, Administrative Agent and the Requisite Lenders or (ii) in the case of any other Credit Document, Administrative Agent and, if party thereto, Collateral Agent, with the consent of the Requisite Lenders.

(b)                                 Affected Lenders’ Consent.  Without the written consent of each Lender that would be affected thereby, no amendment, modification, termination, or consent shall be effective if the effect thereof would:

(i)                                     extend the scheduled final maturity of any Term Loan or Term Loan Note of such Lender;

(ii)                                  reduce the rate of interest on any Term Loan of such Lender or any fee payable hereunder;

(iv)                              reduce the principal amount of any Term Loan of such Lender;

53

(vii)                           release all or substantially all of the Collateral or all or substantially all of the Guarantors from the Guaranty;

(viii)                        consent to the assignment or transfer by any Credit Party of any of its rights and obligations under any Credit Document; or

(ix)                              extend the Term Loan Commitment of such Lender.

(x)                                 amend, modify, terminate or waive any provision of Section 4.12 or Section 2.11 or any other provision in the Credit Documents relating to the pro rata sharing of payments made with respect to the Obligations; or

(xi)                              amend, modify, terminate or waive any provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document that has the effect of subordinating the Obligations in right of payment to any other Indebtedness, liabilities or any other obligations of any Credit party or subordinating the Liens on any of the Collateral securing the Obligations to any other Liens on the Collateral (it being understood that there shall be no other Liens on the Collateral).

(c)                                  Other Consents.  No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of the Credit Documents, or consent to any departure by any Credit Party therefrom, shall amend, modify, terminate or waive any provision of Section 9 as the same applies to any Agent, or any other provision hereof as the same applies to the rights or obligations of any Agent, in each case without the consent of such Agent.

(d)                                 Execution of Amendments, etc.  Administrative Agent may, but shall have no obligation to, with the concurrence of any Lender, execute amendments, modifications, waivers or consents on behalf of such Lender.  Any waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given.  No notice to or demand on any Credit Party in any case shall entitle any Credit Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.  Any amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent effected in accordance with this Section 10.5 shall be binding upon each Lender at the time outstanding, each future Lender and, if signed by a Credit Party, on such Credit Party.

10.6                        Successors and Assigns; Participations.

(a)                                 Generally.  This Agreement shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and the successors and assigns of Lenders.  No Credit Party’s rights or obligations hereunder nor any interest therein may be assigned or delegated by any Credit Party without the prior written consent of all Lenders (and any attempted assignment or transfer by any Credit

54

Party 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 and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, Affiliates of each of the Agents and Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b)                                 Register.  The Borrower, Administrative Agent and Lenders shall deem and treat the Persons listed as Lenders in the Register as the holders and owners of the corresponding Term Loans listed therein for all purposes hereof, and no assignment or transfer of any such Term Loan shall be effective, in each case, unless and until an Assignment Agreement effecting the assignment or transfer thereof shall have been delivered to and accepted by Administrative Agent and recorded in the Register as provided in Section 10.6(e).  Prior to such recordation, all amounts owed with respect to the applicable Term Loan shall be owed to the Lender listed in the Register as the owner thereof, and any request, authority or consent of any Person who, at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent, is listed in the Register as a Lender shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, assignee or transferee of the corresponding Term Loans.  Solely for the purposes of maintaining the Register and for tax purposes only Administrative Agent shall be deemed to be acting on behalf of the Credit Parties.

(c)                                  Right to Assign.  Each Lender shall have the right at any time to sell, assign or transfer all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, including all or a portion of its Term Loans owing to it, Commitments or other Obligations:

(i)                                     to any Person meeting the criteria of clause (a) of the definition of the term of “Eligible Assignee” upon the giving of notice to Borrower and Administrative Agent; or

(ii)                                  to any Person otherwise constituting an Eligible Assignee; provided, each such assignment pursuant to this Section 10.6(c)(ii) shall be in an aggregate amount of not less than $250,000 (or such lesser amount as may be agreed to by Borrower and Administrative Agent or as shall constitute the aggregate amount of the Term Loans of the assigning Lender), provided that the foregoing minimum assignment amounts shall not apply (x) to any assignment of all or any portion of a Term Loan to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or a Related Fund of the assignor or (y) if any Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing.

(d)                                 Mechanics.  The assigning Lender and the assignee thereof shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent an Assignment Agreement, together with (i) such forms, certificates or other evidence, if any, with respect to United States federal income tax withholding matters as the assignee under such Assignment Agreement may be required to deliver to Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.13(e), and (ii) the assignment fees specified in the Assignment Agreement.

(e)                                  Notice of Assignment.  Upon its receipt and acceptance of a duly executed and completed Assignment Agreement, any forms, certificates or other evidence required by this Agreement in connection therewith, Administrative Agent shall record the

55

information contained in such Assignment Agreement in the Register, shall give prompt notice thereof to Borrower and shall maintain a copy of such Assignment Agreement.

(f)                                   Representations and Warranties of Assignee.  Each Lender, upon execution and delivery hereof or upon executing and delivering an Assignment Agreement, as the case may be, represents and warrants as of the Closing Date or as of the applicable Effective Date (as defined in the applicable Assignment Agreement) that (i) it is an Eligible Assignee; (ii) it has experience and expertise in the making of or investing in commitments or loans such as the applicable Term Loans, as the case may be; and (iii) it will make or invest in its Term Loans for its own account in the ordinary course of its business and without a view to distribution of such Term Loans within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or other federal securities laws (it being understood that, subject to the provisions of this Section 10.6, the disposition of such Term Loans or any interests therein shall at all times remain within its exclusive control).

(g)                                  Effect of Assignment.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 10.6, as of the “Effective Date” specified in the applicable Assignment Agreement: (i) the assignee thereunder shall have the rights and obligations of a “Lender” hereunder to the extent such rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment Agreement and shall thereafter be a party hereto and a “Lender” for all purposes hereof; (ii) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned thereby pursuant to such Assignment Agreement, relinquish its rights (other than any rights which survive the termination hereof under Section 10.8) and be released from its obligations hereunder (and, in the case of an Assignment Agreement covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations hereunder, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto; provided, anything contained in any of the Credit Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, such assigning Lender shall continue to be entitled to the benefit of all indemnities hereunder as specified herein with respect to matters arising out of the prior involvement of such assigning Lender as a Lender hereunder) and (iii) if any such assignment occurs after the issuance of any Term Loan Note hereunder, the assigning Lender shall, upon the effectiveness of such assignment or as promptly thereafter as practicable, surrender its applicable Term Loan Notes to Administrative Agent for cancellation, and thereupon the Borrower shall issue and deliver new Term Loan Notes, if so requested by the assignee and/or assigning Lender, to such assignee and/or to such assigning Lender, with appropriate insertions, to reflect outstanding Term Loans of the assignee and/or the assigning Lender.

(h)                                 Participations.  Each Lender shall have the right at any time to sell one or more participations to any Person (other than Holdings, any of its Subsidiaries or any of its Affiliates) in all or any part of its Term Loans or in any other Obligation.  The holder of any such participation (a “Participant”), other than an Affiliate of the Lender granting such participation, shall not be entitled to require such Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder except with respect to any amendment, modification or waiver that would (i) extend the final scheduled maturity of any Term Loan or Term Loan Note in which such Participant is participating, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or fees thereon (except any amendment to the definition of “Default Rate” or in connection with a waiver of applicability of any post default increase in interest rates) or reduce the principal amount thereof,

56

or increase the amount of the Participant’s participation over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default shall not constitute a change in the terms of such participation, and that an increase in any Term Loan shall be permitted without the consent of any Participant if the Participant’s participation is not increased as a result thereof), (ii) consent to the assignment or transfer by any Credit Party of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, or (iii) release all or substantially all of the Collateral under the Collateral Documents or all or substantially all of the Guarantors from the Guaranty (in each case, except as expressly provided in the Credit Documents) supporting the Term Loans hereunder in which such Participant is participating.  The Borrower agree that each Participant shall be entitled, through the participating Lender, to the benefits of Sections 2.12 and 2.13 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to clause (c) of this Section; provided, (i) a Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.12 or 2.13 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation, and (ii) a Participant shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.13 unless such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 2.13 as though it were a Lender (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.13 shall be delivered to the participating Lender).  To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.4 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.11 as though it were a Lender.  Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register in the United States on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s interest in the Term Loans or other obligations under the Credit Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided, that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or other obligations under any Credit Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations.  The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

(i)                                     Certain Other Assignments.  In addition to any other assignment permitted pursuant to this Section 10.6, any Lender may assign, pledge and/or grant a security interest in, all or any portion of its Term Loans, the other Obligations owed by or to such Lender, and its Term Loan Notes, if any, to secure obligations of such Lender including any Federal Reserve Bank as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and any operating circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank; provided, no Lender, as between the Borrower and such Lender, shall be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as a result of any such assignment and pledge, and provided further, in no event shall the applicable Federal Reserve Bank, pledgee or trustee be considered to be a “Lender” or be entitled to require the assigning Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder.

57

10.7                        Independence of Covenants.  All covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or would otherwise be within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists.

10.8                        Survival of Representations, Warranties and Agreements.  All representations, warranties and agreements made herein shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and the making of any Credit Extension.  Notwithstanding anything herein or implied by law to the contrary, the agreements of each Credit Party set forth in Sections 2.12, 2.13, 10.2, and 10.3 and the agreements of Lenders set forth in Section 2.11 shall survive the payment of the Term Loans and the termination hereof.

10.9                        No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative.  No failure or delay on the part of any Agent or any Lender in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right or privilege.  The rights, powers and remedies given to each Agent and each Lender hereby are cumulative and shall be in addition to and independent of all rights, powers and remedies existing by virtue of any statute or rule of law or in any of the other Credit Documents.  Any forbearance or failure to exercise, and any delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver thereof, nor shall it preclude the further exercise of any such right, power or remedy.

10.10                 Marshalling; Payments Set Aside.  Neither any Agent nor any Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Credit Party or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations.  To the extent that any Credit Party makes a payment or payments to Administrative Agent or Lenders (or to Administrative Agent, on behalf of Lenders), or Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or Lenders enforce any security interests or exercise their rights of setoff, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or setoff or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any Debtor Relief Law, any other state or federal law, common law or any equitable cause, then, to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor or related thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment or payments had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

10.11                 Severability.  In case any provision in or obligation hereunder or any Term Loan Note or other Credit Document shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

10.12                 Obligations Several; Independent Nature of Lenders’ Rights.  The obligations of Lenders hereunder are several and no Lender shall be responsible for the obligations or Term

58

Loan Commitment of any other Lender hereunder.  Nothing contained herein or in any other Credit Document, and no action taken by Lenders pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute Lenders as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity.  The amounts payable at any time hereunder to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt, and each Lender shall be entitled to protect and enforce its rights arising out hereof and it shall not be necessary for any other Lender to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

10.13                 Headings.  Section headings herein are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part hereof for any other purpose or be given any substantive effect.

10.14                 APPLICABLE LAW.  THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS (UNLESS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED TO THE CONTRARY IN ANOTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT IN RESPECT OF SUCH OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT), AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER AND THEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

10.15                 CONSENT TO JURISDICTION.

(a)                                 ALL JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS BROUGHT AGAINST ANY CREDIT PARTY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING HERETO OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT, OR ANY OF THE OBLIGATIONS, MAY BE BROUGHT IN ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION IN THE STATE, COUNTY AND CITY OF NEW YORK.  BY EXECUTING AND DELIVERING THIS AGREEMENT, EACH CREDIT PARTY, FOR ITSELF AND IN CONNECTION WITH ITS PROPERTIES, IRREVOCABLY (i) ACCEPTS GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION AND VENUE OF SUCH COURTS; (ii) WAIVES ANY DEFENSE OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS; (iii) AGREES THAT SERVICE OF ALL PROCESS IN ANY SUCH PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, TO THE APPLICABLE CREDIT PARTY AT ITS ADDRESS PROVIDED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 10.1 ABOVE IS SUFFICIENT TO CONFER PERSONAL JURISDICTION OVER THE APPLICABLE CREDIT PARTY IN ANY SUCH PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT, AND OTHERWISE CONSTITUTES EFFECTIVE AND BINDING SERVICE IN EVERY RESPECT; AND (iv) AGREES THAT AGENTS AND LENDERS RETAIN THE RIGHT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR TO BRING PROCEEDINGS AGAINST ANY CREDIT PARTY IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.

(b)                                 EACH CREDIT PARTY HEREBY AGREES THAT PROCESS MAY BE SERVED ON IT BY CERTIFIED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, TO THE ADDRESSES PERTAINING TO IT AS SPECIFIED IN SECTION 10.1 OR ON CT CORPORATION SYSTEM, LOCATED AT 111 EIGHTH

10.16                 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.  EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY AGREES TO WAIVE ITS RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING HEREUNDER OR UNDER ANY OF THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS OR ANY DEALINGS BETWEEN THEM RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS LOAN TRANSACTION OR THE LENDER/BORROWER RELATIONSHIP THAT IS BEING ESTABLISHED.  THE SCOPE OF THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED TO BE ALL ENCOMPASSING OF ANY AND ALL DISPUTES THAT MAY BE FILED IN ANY COURT AND THAT RELATE TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS TRANSACTION, INCLUDING CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW AND STATUTORY CLAIMS.  EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO ENTER INTO A BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP, THAT EACH HAS ALREADY RELIED ON THIS WAIVER IN ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, AND THAT EACH WILL CONTINUE TO RELY ON THIS WAIVER IN ITS RELATED FUTURE DEALINGS.  EACH PARTY HERETO FURTHER WARRANTS AND REPRESENTS THAT IT HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS LEGAL COUNSEL AND THAT IT KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY TRIAL RIGHTS FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL.  THIS WAIVER IS IRREVOCABLE, MEANING THAT IT MAY NOT BE MODIFIED EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING (OTHER THAN BY A MUTUAL WRITTEN WAIVER SPECIFICALLY REFERRING TO THIS SECTION 10.16 AND EXECUTED BY EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO), AND THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS HERETO OR ANY OF THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS OR TO ANY OTHER DOCUMENTS OR AGREEMENTS RELATING TO THE LOANS MADE HEREUNDER.  IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT.

60

10.17                 Confidentiality.  Each Lender shall hold all non-public information regarding the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and their businesses clearly identified as such by Borrower and obtained by such Lender pursuant to the requirements hereof in accordance with such Lender’s customary procedures for handling confidential information of such nature, it being understood and agreed by the Borrower that, in any event, a Lender may make (i) disclosures of such information to Affiliates of such Lender and to their directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors (and to other persons authorized by a Lender or Agent to organize, present or disseminate such information in connection with disclosures otherwise made in accordance with this Section 10.17), (ii) disclosures of such information reasonably required by any bona fide or potential assignee, transferee or participant in connection with the contemplated assignment, transfer or participation by such Lender of any Term Loans, commitments or any participations therein, (iii) disclosures to any Lender’s financing sources, provided that prior to any disclosure, such financing source is informed of the confidential nature of the information, (iv) disclosure of information which (A) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.17 or (B) becomes available to Administrative Agent or any Lender on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Borrower, and (v) disclosures required or requested by any governmental agency or representative thereof or by the NAIC or pursuant to legal or judicial process; provided, unless specifically prohibited by applicable law or court order, each Lender shall make reasonable efforts to notify Borrower of any request by any governmental agency or representative thereof (other than any such request in connection with any examination of the financial condition or other routine examination of such Lender by such governmental agency) for disclosure of any such non-public information prior to disclosure of such information.  Each Lender hereby acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding the terms of any non-disclosure agreement or similar confidentiality agreement to which Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries and such Lender is a party on the Closing Date and was in effect prior to the Closing Date, such Lender shall not have the right to publicly disclose, or to cause Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries to publicly disclose, any material non-public information that such Lender receives after the Closing Date pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, in each case, except as expressly stated in the immediately preceding sentence or pursuant to any separate confidentiality or disclosure arrangements that are entered into on or after the Closing Date between such Lender and Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries.

10.18                 Usury Savings Clause.  Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the aggregate interest rate charged or agreed to be paid with respect to any of the Obligations, including all charges or fees in connection therewith deemed in the nature of interest under applicable law shall not exceed the Highest Lawful Rate.  If the rate of interest (determined without regard to the preceding sentence) under this Agreement at any time exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the outstanding amount of the Term Loans made hereunder shall bear interest at the Highest Lawful Rate until the total amount of interest due hereunder equals the amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect.  In addition, if when the Term Loans made hereunder are repaid in full the total interest due hereunder (taking into account the increase provided for above) is less than the total amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect, then to the extent permitted by law, the Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent an amount equal to the difference between the amount of interest paid and the amount of interest which would have been paid if the Highest Lawful Rate had at all times been in effect.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is the intention of Lenders and the Borrower to conform strictly to any applicable usury laws.  Accordingly, if any Lender contracts for, charges, or receives any consideration which constitutes interest in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, then any such excess shall be cancelled automatically and, if previously paid, shall at such Lender’s option be applied to the outstanding amount of the Term Loans made hereunder or be refunded to the Borrower.  In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium

61

rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest, throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

10.19                 Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

10.20                 Effectiveness.  This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution of a counterpart hereof by each of the parties hereto and receipt by Borrower and Administrative Agent of written or telephonic notification of such execution and authorization of delivery thereof and the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 3.1.  Delivery of an executed counterpart to this Agreement by telecopy transmission (or other electronic transmission pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent) shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed original.

10.21                 Patriot Act.  Each Lender and Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act.

10.22                 Entire Agreement.  This Agreement and the other Credit Documents represent the final agreement among the parties and may not be contradicted by evidence of prior, contemporaneous, or subsequent oral agreements of the parties. There are no unwritten oral agreements among the parties.
