On and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each of the Lenders, severally and for itself alone, agrees to make Loans to, make or participate in Swing Loans for the account of, and to issue or participate in Letters of Credit for the account of, Borrower as follows:

2.1.1. Revolving Credit Commitment. Each Revolving Credit Lender agrees to make Revolving Loans from time to time until the Termination Date in such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such aggregate amounts as Borrower may request; provided that the Revolving Credit Exposure will not at any time exceed the Revolving Credit Commitment. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, Borrower shall be entitled under this Section 2.1.1 to borrow funds, repay the same in whole or in part and re-borrow hereunder at any time and from time to time during the applicable Commitment Period.

2.1.2. Term Loan Commitment. Each Term Loan Lender agrees to participate in the making of the Term Loan to Borrower on the Closing Date in the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Term Loan Commitment. The Commitment of the Lenders to make the Term Loan shall expire concurrently with the making of the Term Loan on the Closing Date.

2.1.3. CAPEX Commitment.

(a) Each CAPEX Lender agrees to make CAPEX Draw Loans from time to time until the CAPEX Conversion Date in such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such aggregate amounts as Borrower may request; provided that the CAPEX Draw Exposure will not at any time exceed CAPEX Draw Facility Commitment. Once CAPEX Draw Loans are made, such CAPEX Draw Loans may not be repaid and reborrowed.

(b) On the CAPEX Conversion Date, all CAPEX Draw Loans outstanding on such date shall be refinanced by the CAPEX Lenders with the CAPEX Term Loan. On the CAPEX Conversion Date, the CAPEX Draw Facility Commitment shall be automatically terminated, and, on and after the CAPEX Conversion Date, CAPEX Draw Loans shall no longer be available.

Section 2.2. Loan Procedures.

2.2.1. Various Types of Loans. Each Revolving Loan and CAPEX Draw Loan shall be, and the Term Loan and the CAPEX Term Loan may be divided into tranches that are, either a Base Rate Loan or a LIBOR Loan (each a “Type” of Loan), as Borrower shall specify in the related Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation pursuant to Section 2.2.2 or 2.2.3. LIBOR Loans having the same Interest Period which expire on the same day are sometimes called a “Group” or collectively “Groups”. Base Rate Loans and LIBOR Loans may be outstanding at the same time, provided that not more than eight different Groups of LIBOR Loans shall be outstanding at any one time. All borrowings, conversions and repayments of Revolving Loans shall be effected so that each Lender will have a ratable share (according to its Pro Rata Share) of all types and Groups of Loans.

2.2.2. Borrowing Procedures. Borrower shall give a Notice of Borrowing, or telephonic notice (followed promptly by a Notice of Borrowing; provided that the lack of such prompt notification shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such telephonic notice) to Administrative Agent of each proposed borrowing not later than (a) in the case of a Base Rate borrowing, 1:00 P.M. (Eastern Time) on the proposed date of such borrowing, and (b) in the case of a LIBOR borrowing, 1:00 P.M. (Eastern Time) at least three Business Days prior to the proposed date of such borrowing. Each such notice shall be effective upon receipt by Administrative Agent, shall be irrevocable, and shall specify the date, amount and type of borrowing and, in the case of a LIBOR borrowing, the initial Interest Period therefor. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender thereof. Not later than 2:00 P.M. (Eastern Time) on the date of a proposed borrowing, each Lender shall provide Administrative Agent at the office specified by Administrative Agent with immediately available funds covering such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such borrowing and, so long as Administrative Agent has not received written notice that the conditions precedent set forth in Article XI with respect to such borrowing have not been satisfied, Administrative Agent shall pay over the funds received by Administrative Agent to Borrower on the requested borrowing date. Each borrowing shall be on a Business Day. Each Base Rate borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount of at least Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) and an integral multiple of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000), and each LIBOR borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount of at least Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) and an integral multiple of at least One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000).

2.2.3. Conversion and Continuation Procedures.

(a) Subject to Section 2.2.1, Borrower may, upon irrevocable written notice to Administrative Agent in accordance with subpart (b) below:

(i) elect, as of any Business Day, to convert any Base Rate Loan in an aggregate amount not less than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) or a higher integral multiple of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000)) into a LIBOR Loan; or

(ii) elect, as of the last day of the applicable Interest Period, to (A) continue any LIBOR Loan having an Interest Period expiring on such day (or any part thereof in an aggregate amount not less than Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) or a higher integral multiple of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000)) for a new Interest Period, or (B) convert such LIBOR Loan to a Base Rate Loan.

(b) Borrower shall give a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, or telephonic notice (followed promptly by a Notice of Conversion/Continuation; provided that the lack of such prompt notification shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such telephonic notice) to Administrative Agent of each proposed conversion or continuation not later than (i) in the case of conversion into Base Rate Loans, 1:00 P.M. (Eastern Time) on the proposed date of such conversion, and (ii) in the case of conversion into or continuation of LIBOR Loans, 1:00 P.M. (Eastern Time) at least three Business Days prior to the proposed date of such conversion or continuation, specifying in each case:

(A) the proposed date of conversion or continuation;

(B) the aggregate amount of Loans to be converted or continued;

(D) in the case of conversion into, or continuation of, a LIBOR Loan, the duration of the requested Interest Period therefor.

(c) If, upon the expiration of the Interest Period applicable to a LIBOR Loan, Borrower has failed to timely select a new Interest Period to be applicable to such LIBOR Loan, Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to convert such LIBOR Loan into a Base Rate Loan effective on the last day of such Interest Period.

(d) Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of a Notice of Conversion/Continuation pursuant to this Section 2.2.3 or, if no timely notice is provided by Borrower, of the details of any automatic conversion.

(e) Any conversion of a LIBOR Loan on a day other than the last day of an Interest Period therefor shall be subject to Section 8.4.

2.2.4. Swing Line Facility.

(a) Administrative Agent shall notify the Swing Line Lender upon Administrative Agent’s receipt of any Notice of Borrowing. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swing Line Lender may make Swing Line Loans available from time to time until the Termination Date in accordance with any such notice, so long as, after making such requested Swing Line Loan, the aggregate amount of Swing Line Loans outstanding would not exceed the Commitment Amount and the Revolving Credit Exposure would not exceed the Revolving Credit Commitment. (For purposes of clarification, to the extent the Swing Line Lender is also a Revolving Credit Lender, Swing Line Loans made by the Swing Line Lender shall not be included in the calculation of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Revolving Credit Commitment (other than any participation obligations as a Revolving Credit Lender), and the Swing Line Lender’s making of a Swing Line Loan does not constitute the making of a Revolving Loan by such Lender in its capacity as a Revolving Credit Lender.) The provisions of this Section 2.2.4 shall not relieve the Lenders of their obligations to make Revolving Loans under Section 2.1.1; provided that, if the Swing Line Lender makes a Swing Line Loan pursuant to any such notice, such Swing Line Loan shall be in lieu of any Revolving Loan that otherwise may be made by the Lenders pursuant to such notice. Until the Termination Date, Borrower may from time to time borrow, repay and reborrow under this Section 2.2.4. Each Swing Line Loan shall be made pursuant to a Notice of Borrowing delivered by Borrower to Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.2.2. Any such notice must be given no later than 3:00 P.M. (Eastern Time) on the Business Day of the proposed Swing Line Loan. Unless the Swing Line Lender has received at least one Business Day’s prior written notice from the Required Lenders instructing it not to make a Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender shall, notwithstanding the failure of any condition precedent set forth in Section 12.2, be entitled to fund that Swing Line Loan, and to have such Lender make Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.2.4(c) or purchase participating interests in accordance with Section 2.2.4(d). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, each Swing Line Loan shall constitute a Base Rate Loan. Borrower shall repay the aggregate outstanding principal amount of each Swing Line Loan upon demand therefor by Administrative Agent.

(b) The entire unpaid balance of each Swing Line Loan and all other noncontingent Obligations shall be immediately due and payable in full in immediately available funds on the Termination Date, if not sooner paid in full.

(c) The Swing Line Lender, at any time and from time to time, may, on behalf of Borrower (and Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swing Line Lender to so act on its behalf), request each Revolving Credit Lender (including the Swing Line Lender) to make a Revolving Loan to Borrower (which shall be a Base Rate Loan) in an amount equal to that Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the principal amount of such Swing Line Loan (the “Refunded Swing Line Loan”). Unless any of the events described in Section 13.1.4 has occurred (in which event the procedures of Section 2.2.4(d) shall apply) and regardless of whether the conditions precedent set forth in this Agreement to the making of a Revolving Loan are then satisfied, each Lender shall disburse directly to Administrative Agent, its Pro Rata Share on behalf of the Swing Line Lender, prior to 3:00 P.M. (Eastern Time) in immediately available funds on the date that notice is given (provided that such notice is given by 1:00 P.M. (Eastern Time) on such date). The proceeds of such Revolving Loans shall be immediately paid to the Swing Line Lender and applied to repay the Refunded Swing Line Loan.

(d) If, prior to refunding a Swing Line Loan with a Revolving Loan pursuant to Section 2.2.4(c), one of the events described in Section 13.1.4 has occurred, then, subject to the provisions of Section 2.2.4(e) below, each Lender shall, on the date such Revolving Loan was to have been made, purchase from the Swing Line Lender an undivided participation interest in the Swing Line Loan in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of such Swing Line Loan. Upon request, each Lender shall promptly transfer to the Swing Line Lender, in immediately available funds, the amount of its participation interest.

(e) Each Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.2.4(c) and to purchase participation interests in accordance with Section 2.2.4(d) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Lender may have against the Swing Line Lender, Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (ii) the occurrence or continuance of any Default or Event of Default; (iii) any inability of Borrower to satisfy the conditions precedent to borrowing set forth in this Agreement at any time; or (iv) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. If, and to the extent, any Lender shall not have made such amount available to Administrative Agent or the Swing Line Lender, as applicable, by 3:00 P.M. (Eastern Time) the amount required pursuant to Sections 2.2.4(c) or 2.2.4(d), as the case may be, on the Business Day on which such Lender receives notice from Administrative Agent of such payment or disbursement (it being understood that any such notice received after 2:00 P.M. (Eastern Time) on any Business Day shall be deemed to have been received on the next following Business Day), such Lender agrees to pay interest on such amount to Administrative Agent for the Swing Line Lender’s account forthwith on demand, for each day from the date such amount was to have been delivered to Administrative Agent to the date such amount is paid, at a rate per annum equal to (i) for the first three days after demand, the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect, and (ii) thereafter, the Base Rate from time to time in effect.

Section 2.3. Letter of Credit Procedures.

2.3.1. L/C Applications. Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Issuing Lender the Master Letter of Credit Agreement from time to time in effect. Borrower shall give notice to Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender of the proposed issuance of each Letter of Credit on a Business Day which is at least three Business Days (or such lesser number of days as Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender shall agree in any particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the proposed date of issuance of such Letter of Credit. Each such notice shall be accompanied by an L/C Application, duly executed by Borrower and in all respects satisfactory to Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender, together with such other documentation as Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender may request in support thereof, it being understood that each L/C Application shall specify, among other things, the date on which the proposed Letter of Credit is to be issued, the expiration date of such Letter of Credit (which shall not be later than the earlier of (a) one year after its date of issuance, provided that, such Letter of Credit may provide for the renewal thereof for additional one year periods, or (b) seven days prior to the scheduled Termination Date (unless such Letter of Credit is Cash Collateralized)) and whether such Letter of Credit is to be transferable in whole or in part. Any Letter of Credit outstanding after the scheduled Termination Date which is Cash Collateralized for the benefit of the Issuing Lender shall be the sole responsibility of the Issuing Lender. So long as the Issuing Lender has not received written notice that the conditions precedent set forth in Section 12 with respect to the issuance of such Letter of Credit have not been satisfied, the Issuing Lender shall issue such Letter of Credit on the requested issuance date. The Issuing Lender shall promptly advise Administrative Agent of the issuance of each Letter of Credit and of any amendment thereto, extension thereof or event or circumstance changing the amount available for drawing thereunder. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms of the Master Letter of Credit Agreement, any L/C Application and the terms of this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall control.

2.3.2. Participations in Letters of Credit. Concurrently with the issuance of each Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have sold and transferred to each Revolving Credit Lender, and each such Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed irrevocably and unconditionally to have purchased and received from the Issuing Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation, to the extent of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share, in such Letter of Credit and Borrower’s reimbursement obligations with respect thereto. (For purposes of clarification, to the extent the Issuing Lender is also a Revolving Credit Lender, Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Lender shall not be included in the calculation of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Revolving Credit Commitment (other than any participation obligations as a Revolving Credit Lender).) If Borrower does not pay any reimbursement obligation when due, Borrower shall be deemed to have immediately requested that the Revolving Credit Lenders make a Revolving Loan which is a Base Rate Loan in a principal amount equal to such reimbursement obligations. Administrative Agent shall promptly notify such Revolving Credit Lenders of such deemed request and, without the necessity of compliance with the requirements of Section 2.2.2, Section 12.2 or otherwise such Lender shall make available to Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of such Revolving Loan. The proceeds of such Revolving Loan shall be paid over by Administrative Agent to the Issuing Lender for the account of Borrower in satisfaction of such reimbursement obligations. For the purposes of this Agreement, the unparticipated portion of each Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be the Issuing Lender’s “participation” therein. The Issuing Lender hereby agrees, upon request of Administrative Agent or any Revolving Credit Lender, to deliver to Administrative Agent or such Revolving Credit Lender a list of all outstanding Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Lender, together with such information related thereto as Administrative Agent or such Revolving Credit Lender may reasonably request.

2.3.3. Reimbursement Obligations.

(a) Borrower hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees to reimburse the Issuing Lender for each payment or disbursement made by the Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit honoring any demand for payment made by the beneficiary thereunder, in each case on the date that such payment or disbursement is made. Any amount not reimbursed on the date of such payment or disbursement shall bear interest from the date of such payment or disbursement to the date that the Issuing Lender is reimbursed by Borrower therefor, payable on demand, at a rate per annum equal to the Derived Base Rate from time to time in effect plus, beginning on the third Business Day after receipt of notice from the Issuing Lender of such payment or disbursement, two percent (2%). The Issuing Lender shall notify Borrower and Administrative Agent whenever any demand for payment is made under any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereunder; provided that the failure of the Issuing Lender to so notify Borrower or Administrative Agent shall not affect the rights of the Issuing Lender or the Lenders in any manner whatsoever.

(b) Borrower’s reimbursement obligations hereunder shall be irrevocable and unconditional under all circumstances, including (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right which any Credit Party may have at any time against a beneficiary named in a Letter of Credit, any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such transferee may be acting), Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender, any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with any Letter of Credit, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transactions (including any underlying transaction between any Credit Party and the beneficiary named in any Letter of Credit), (iii) the validity, sufficiency or genuineness of any document which the Issuing Lender has determined complies on its face with the terms of the applicable Letter of Credit, even if such document should later prove to have been forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein shall have been untrue or inaccurate in any respect, or (iv) the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms hereof. Without limiting the foregoing, no action or omission whatsoever by Administrative Agent or any Lender (excluding any Lender in its capacity as the Issuing Lender) under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or any related matters shall result in any liability of Administrative Agent or any Lender to Borrower, or relieve Borrower of any of its obligations hereunder to any such Person.

2.3.4. Funding by the Lenders to Issuing Lender. If the Issuing Lender makes any payment or disbursement under any Letter of Credit and (a) Borrower has not reimbursed the Issuing Lender in full for such payment or disbursement by 1:00 P.M. (Eastern Time) on the date of such payment or disbursement, (b) a Revolving Loan may not be made in accordance with Section 2.3.2, or (c) any reimbursement received by the Issuing Lender from Borrower is or must be returned or rescinded upon or during any bankruptcy or reorganization of Borrower or otherwise, each other Lender with a Revolving Credit Commitment shall be obligated to pay to Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender, in full or partial payment of the purchase price of its participation in such Letter of Credit, its Pro Rata Share of such payment or disbursement (but no such payment shall diminish the obligations of Borrower under Section 2.3.3), and, upon notice from the Issuing Lender, Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each other Lender thereof. Each other Lender irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to so pay to Administrative Agent in immediately available funds for the Issuing Lender’s account the amount of such other Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such payment or disbursement. If, and to the extent, any Lender shall not have made such amount available to Administrative Agent by 3:00 P.M. (Eastern Time) on the Business Day on which such Lender receives notice from Administrative Agent of such payment or disbursement (it being understood that any such notice received after 2:00 P.M. (Eastern Time) on any Business Day shall be deemed to have been received on the next following Business Day), such Lender agrees to pay interest on such amount to Administrative Agent for the Issuing Lender’s account forthwith on demand, for each day from the date such amount was to have been delivered to Administrative Agent to the date such amount is paid, at a rate per annum equal to (a) for the first three days after demand, the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect, and (b) thereafter, the Base Rate from time to time in effect. Any Lender’s failure to make available to Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of any such payment or disbursement shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to make available to Administrative Agent such other Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such payment, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make available to Administrative Agent such other Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any such payment or disbursement.

Section 2.4. Commitments Several. The failure of any Lender to make a requested Loan on any date shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation (if any) to make a Loan on such date, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make any Loan to be made by such other Lender.

Section 2.5. Certain Conditions. Except as otherwise provided in Sections 2.2.4 and 2.3.4 of this Agreement, no Lender (including the Swing Line Lender) shall have an obligation to make any Loan, or to permit the continuation of or any conversion into any LIBOR Loan, and the Issuing Lender shall not have any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit, if a Default or Event of Default exists and is continuing.

ARTICLE III. EVIDENCING OF LOANS.

Section 3.1. Notes.

(a) Revolving Loans. To evidence the obligation of Borrower to repay the Revolving Loans made by each Revolving Credit Lender and to pay interest thereon, Borrower shall execute a Revolving Credit Note, payable to the order of such Revolving Credit Lender in the principal amount of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Maximum Revolving Amount, or, if less, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of Revolving Loans made by such Revolving Credit Lender.

(b) Swing Loan. To evidence the obligation of Borrower to repay the Swing Line Loans and to pay interest thereon, Borrower shall execute a Swing Line Note, payable to the order of the Swing Line Lender in the principal amount of the Swing Line Commitment Amount, or, if less, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of Swing Line Loans made by the Swing Line Lender.

(c) Term Loan. To evidence the obligation of Borrower to repay the portion of the Term Loan made by each Term Loan Lender and to pay interest thereon, Borrower shall execute a Term Note, payable to the order of such Term Loan Lender in the principal amount of its Commitment Percentage of the Term Loan Commitment.

(d) CAPEX Loans. To evidence the obligation of Borrower to repay the CAPEX Loans made by each CAPEX Lender and to pay interest thereon, Borrower shall execute a CAPEX Note, payable to the order of such CAPEX Lender in the principal amount of its Commitment Percentage of the CAPEX Commitment.

Section 3.2. Recordkeeping. Administrative Agent, on behalf of each Lender, shall record in its records, the date, amount and Type of each Loan made by each Lender, each repayment or conversion thereof and, in the case of each LIBOR Loan, the dates on which each Interest Period for such Loan shall begin and end. The aggregate unpaid principal amount so recorded shall be rebuttably presumptive evidence of the principal amount of the Loans owing and unpaid, absent demonstrable error. The failure to so record any such amount or any error in so recording any such amount shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the Obligations of Borrower hereunder or under any Note to repay the principal amount of the Loans hereunder, together with all interest accruing thereon.

ARTICLE IV. INTEREST.

Section 4.1. Interest Rates.

(a) Generally. Borrower promises to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan for the period commencing on the date of such Loan until such Loan is paid in full as follows:

(i) at all times while such Loan is a Base Rate Loan, at a rate per annum equal to the Derived Base Rate; and

(ii) at all times while such Loan is a LIBOR Loan, at a rate per annum equal to the Derived LIBOR Rate applicable to each Interest Period for such Loan.

(b) Default Rate. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, upon the election of the Required Lenders, (i) the principal of each Loan and the unpaid interest thereon shall bear interest, until paid, at the Default Rate, (ii) the fee for the aggregate undrawn amount of all issued and outstanding Letters of Credit shall be increased by two percent (2%) in excess of the rate otherwise applicable thereto, and (iii) in the case of any other amount not paid when due from Borrower hereunder or under any other Collateral Document, such amount shall bear interest at the Default Rate; provided that, during an Event of Default under Sections 13.1.1 or 13.1.4, the applicable Default Rate shall apply without any election or action on the part of Administrative Agent or any Lender.

Section 4.2. Interest Payment Dates. Accrued interest on each Base Rate Loan shall be payable in arrears on the last day of each calendar quarter and at maturity. Accrued interest on each LIBOR Loan shall be payable on the last day of each Interest Period relating to such Loan (and, in the case of a LIBOR Loan with an Interest Period in excess of three months, on the three-month anniversary of the first day of such Interest Period), upon a prepayment of such Loan, and at maturity. After maturity, and at any time an Event of Default exists and is continuing, accrued interest on all Loans shall be payable on demand.

Section 4.3. Setting and Notice of LIBOR Rates. The applicable LIBOR Rate for each Interest Period shall be determined by Administrative Agent, and notice thereof shall be given by Administrative Agent promptly to Borrower and each Lender. Each determination of the applicable LIBOR Rate by Administrative Agent shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties hereto, in the absence of demonstrable error. Administrative Agent shall, upon written request of Borrower or any Lender, deliver to Borrower or such Lender a statement showing the computations used by Administrative Agent in determining any applicable LIBOR Rate hereunder.

Section 4.4. Computation of Interest. Interest shall be computed for the actual number of days elapsed on the basis of a year of 360 days. The applicable interest rate for each Base Rate Loan shall change simultaneously with each change in the Base Rate.

Section 4.5. Limitation on Interest. In no event shall the rate of interest hereunder exceed the maximum rate allowable by law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable law (the “Maximum Rate”). If Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum 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 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.

ARTICLE V. FEES.

Section 5.1. Non-Use Fee. Borrower agrees to pay to Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of the Lenders, a non-use fee (“Non-Use Fee”), for the period from the Closing Date to and including the Termination Date, at a rate per annum equal to the Non-Use Fee Rate in effect from time to time, multiplied by (as adjusted from time to time) the unused amount of the average daily Maximum Revolving Amount in effect during the Fiscal Quarter. For purposes of calculating usage under this Section, the Revolving Credit Commitment shall be deemed used to the extent of Revolving Credit Exposure (exclusive of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Swing Line Loans). Such Non-Use Fee shall be payable in arrears on the last day of each calendar quarter and on the Termination Date. The Non-Use Fee shall be computed for the actual number of days elapsed on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty (360) days.

Section 5.2. Letter of Credit Fees.

(a) Borrower agrees to pay to Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of the Lenders, a letter of credit fee for each Letter of Credit equal to the L/C Fee Rate in effect from time to time multiplied by the undrawn amount of such Letter of Credit (computed for the actual number of days elapsed on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty (360) days); provided that, unless the Required Lenders otherwise consent, the rate applicable to each Letter of Credit shall be increased by two percent (2%) at any time that an Event of Default exists. Such letter of credit fee shall be payable in arrears on the last day of each calendar quarter and on the Termination Date (or such later date on which such Letter of Credit expires or is terminated) for the period from the date of the issuance of each Letter of Credit (or the last day on which the letter of credit fee was paid with respect thereto) to the date such payment is due or, if earlier, the date on which such Letter of Credit expired or was terminated.

(b) In addition, with respect to each Letter of Credit, Borrower agrees to pay to the Issuing Lender, for its own account, (i) such fees and expenses as the Issuing Lender customarily requires in connection with the issuance, negotiation, processing and/or administration of letters of credit in similar situations, and (ii) a letter of credit fronting fee which shall be paid on each date that such Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended or renewed at the rate of one-eighth percent (1/8%) of the face amount of such Letter of Credit.

Section 5.3. Administrative Agent Fees. Borrower agrees to pay to Administrative Agent, for its sole benefit, the fees set forth in the Agent Fee Letter.

ARTICLE VI. REDUCTION OR TERMINATION OF THE

REVOLVING CREDIT COMMITMENT; PREPAYMENTS.

Section 6.1. Voluntary Reduction or Termination of the Revolving Credit Commitment. Borrower may from time to time on at least five Business Days’ prior written notice received by Administrative Agent (which shall promptly advise each Lender thereof) permanently reduce the Revolving Credit Commitment to an amount not less than the Revolving Credit Exposure. Any such reduction shall be in an amount not less than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) or a higher integral multiple of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000). Concurrently with any reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitment to zero, Borrower shall pay all interest on the Revolving Loans, all Non-Use Fees and all letter of credit fees and shall Cash Collateralize in full all obligations arising with respect to the Letters of Credit.

Section 6.2. Prepayments.

6.2.1. Voluntary Prepayments. Borrower may from time to time prepay the principal amount of the Loans in whole or in part; provided that Borrower shall give Administrative Agent (which shall promptly advise each Lender) notice thereof not later than 12:00 P.M. (Eastern Time) on the day of such prepayment (which shall be a Business Day), specifying the Loans to be prepaid and the date and amount of prepayment. Such prepayment shall include interest accrued on the amount so prepaid to the date of such prepayment and any amount payable under Article 8 with respect to the amount being prepaid. Prepayments of Base Rate Loans shall be without any premium or penalty. Any such partial prepayment shall be in an amount equal to One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) or a higher integral multiple of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000).

6.2.2. Mandatory Prepayments.

(a) Borrower shall, until the Term Loan and the CAPEX Term Loan have been paid in full, make a prepayment on such Loans (all such prepayments to be made pro rata between the Term Loan and the CAPEX Term Loan, to the applied to the respective payments thereof in inverse order of maturities) upon the occurrence of any of the following (each a “Mandatory Prepayment Event”) at the following times and in the following amounts (such applicable amounts being referred to as “Designated Proceeds”):

(i) Concurrently with the receipt by any Parent Entity of any net cash proceeds from any Asset Disposition, to the extent such net cash proceeds are not to be reinvested in fixed assets or other similar assets within one hundred eighty (180) days of such Asset Disposition, in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of such net cash proceeds.

(ii) Concurrently with the receipt by any Parent Entity of any net cash proceeds from any issuance of Capital Securities of any Parent Entity (other than Capital Securities issued (A) to Borrower or a Guarantor of Payment or (B) solely to the extent the proceeds of such issuance of Capital Securities are used to finance Acquisitions permitted under Section 11.4), in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of such net cash proceeds; provided that no prepayment shall be required hereunder from (A) the issuance of Capital Securities in connection with the exercise of any option, warrant or other convertible security of any Parent Entity, or (B) the issuance, award or grant of Capital Securities to eligible participants under a stock plan of Parent.

(iii) Concurrently with the receipt by any Parent Entity of any net cash proceeds from any issuance of any Indebtedness of any Parent Entity in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of such net cash proceeds.

(iv) Within sixty (60) days after the occurrence of a Material Recovery Event with respect to any Parent Entity, in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the insurance proceeds paid to such Parent Entity in connection with such Material Recovery Event; provided that such Parent Entity will not have to apply any such insurance proceeds as a prepayment on the Loans to the extent such proceeds are used to replace, rebuild or restore the affected property; so long as (i) Within sixty (60) days after the occurrence of such Material Recovery Event, the appropriate Parent Entity shall furnish to Administrative Agent written notice that such Parent Entity will replace, rebuild or restore the affected property, and (ii) such replacement, rebuilding or restoration is (A) commenced within six months of the date of the Material Recovery Event, and (B) substantially completed within twelve (12) months of such commencement date. Any amounts of such insurance proceeds not applied to the costs of replacement or restoration shall be applied as a prepayment on the Loans.

(v) If the Total Debt to EBITDA Ratio calculated for a Fiscal Year (commencing with Fiscal Year 2006), is greater than 1.50 to 1.00, within one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of such Fiscal Year, in an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of Excess Cash Flow for such Fiscal Year.

(c) If, on any day, the CAPEX Draw Exposure exceeds the CAPEX Draw Facility Commitment, Borrower shall immediately prepay CAPEX Draw Loans in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess.

Section 6.3. Manner of Prepayments.

6.3.1. All Prepayments. Each voluntary partial prepayment shall be in a principal amount of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) or a higher integral multiple of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000). Any partial prepayment of a Group of LIBOR Loans shall be subject to the proviso to Section 2.2.3(a). Any prepayment of a LIBOR Loan on a day other than the last day of an Interest Period therefor shall include interest on the principal amount being repaid and shall be subject to Section 8.4.

ARTICLE VII. MAKING AND

PRORATION OF PAYMENTS; SETOFF; TAXES.

Section 7.1. Making of Payments. All payments of principal and interest on the Notes, and of all fees, shall be made by Borrower to Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the office specified by Administrative Agent not later than 2:00 P.M. (Eastern Time) on the date due; and funds received after that hour shall be deemed to have been received by Administrative Agent on the following Business Day. Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to each Lender its share of all such payments received in collected funds by Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender. All payments under Section 8.1 shall be made by Borrower directly to the Lender entitled thereto without setoff, counterclaim or other defense.

Section 7.2. Application of Certain Payments. So long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (a) payments matching specific scheduled payments then due shall be applied to those scheduled payments, and (b) voluntary and mandatory prepayments shall be applied as set forth in Section 6.2. After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, all amounts collected or received by Administrative Agent or any Lender as proceeds from the sale of, or other realization upon, all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied as Administrative Agent shall determine in its discretion. Concurrently with each remittance to any Lender of its share of any such payment, Administrative Agent shall advise such Lender as to the application of such payment.

Section 7.3. Due Date Extension. If any payment of principal or interest with respect to any of the Loans, or of any fees, falls due on a day which is not a Business Day, then such due date shall be extended to the immediately following Business Day (unless, in the case of a LIBOR Loan, such immediately following Business Day is the first Business Day of a calendar month, in which case such due date shall be the immediately preceding Business Day) and, in the case of principal, additional interest shall accrue and be payable for the period of any such extension.

Section 7.4. Setoff. Borrower, for itself and each other Credit Party, agrees that Administrative Agent and each Lender have all rights of set-off and bankers’ lien provided by applicable law, and in addition thereto, Borrower, for itself and each other Credit Party, agrees that, at any time any Event of Default exists, Administrative Agent and each Lender may apply to the payment of any Secured Obligations of Borrower and each other Credit Party hereunder, whether or not then due, any and all balances, credits, deposits, accounts or moneys of Borrower and each other Credit Party then or thereafter with Administrative Agent or such Lender.

Section 7.5. Proration of Payments. If any Lender shall obtain any payment or other recovery (whether voluntary, involuntary, by application of offset or otherwise, on account of (a) principal of or interest on any Loan, but excluding (i) any payment pursuant to Section 8.7 or 15.6 and (ii) payments of interest on any Affected Loan) or (b) its participation in any Letter of Credit) in excess of its applicable Pro Rata Share of payments and other recoveries obtained by all of the Lenders, as appropriate, on account of principal of and interest on the Loans (or such participation) then held by them, then such Lender shall purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Loans (or sub-participations in Letters of Credit) held by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment or other recovery ratably with each of them; provided that if all or any portion of the excess payment or other recovery is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, the purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery.

Section 7.6. Taxes.

(a) All payments made by Borrower hereunder or under any Loan Documents shall be made without setoff, counterclaim, or other defense. To the extent permitted by applicable law, all payments hereunder or under the Loan Documents (including any payment of principal, interest, or fees) to, or for the benefit, of any Person shall be made by Borrower free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for, or account of, any Taxes now or hereinafter imposed by any taxing authority.

(b) If Borrower makes any payment hereunder or under any Loan Document in respect of which it is required by applicable law to deduct or withhold any Taxes, Borrower shall increase the payment hereunder or under any such Loan Document such that after the reduction for the amount of Taxes withheld (and any taxes withheld or imposed with respect to the additional payments required under this Section 7.6(b)), the amount paid to the Lenders or Administrative Agent equals the amount that was payable hereunder or under any such Loan Document without regard to this Section 7.6(b). To the extent Borrower withholds any Taxes on payments hereunder or under any Loan Document, Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxing authority within the time allowed for payment under applicable law and shall deliver to Administrative Agent within thirty (30) days after it has made payment to such authority a receipt issued by such authority (or other evidence satisfactory to Administrative Agent) evidencing the payment of all amounts so required to be deducted or withheld from such payment.

(c) If any Lender or Administrative Agent is required by law to make any payments of any Taxes on or in relation to any amounts received or receivable hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or any Tax is assessed against a Lender or Administrative Agent with respect to amounts received or receivable hereunder or under any other Loan Document, Borrower will indemnify such person against (i) such Tax (and any reasonable counsel fees and expenses associated with such Tax), and (ii) any taxes imposed as a result of the receipt of the payment under this Section 7.6(c). A certificate prepared in good faith as to the amount of such payment by such Lender or Administrative Agent shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive, and binding on all parties.

(d) Non-U.S. Lenders.

(i) To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Lender that is not a United States person within the meaning of Code Section 7701(a)(30) (a “Non-U.S. Participant”) shall deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent on or prior to the Closing Date (or in the case of a Lender that is an Assignee, on the date of such assignment to such Lender) two accurate and complete original signed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN, W-8ECI, or W-8IMY (or any successor or other applicable form prescribed by the IRS) certifying to such Lender’s entitlement to a complete exemption from, or a reduced rate in, United States withholding tax on interest payments to be made hereunder or under any Loan. If a Lender that is a Non-U.S. Participant is claiming a complete exemption from withholding on interest pursuant to Code Sections 871(h) or 881(c), such Lender shall deliver (along with two accurate and complete original signed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN) a certificate in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent (any such certificate, a “Withholding Certificate”). In addition, each Lender that is a Non-U.S. Participant agrees that, from time to time after the Closing Date (or in the case of a Lender that is an Assignee, after the date of the assignment to such Lender), when a lapse in time (or change in circumstances occurs) rendering the prior certificates hereunder obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, such Lender shall, to the extent permitted under applicable law, deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent two new and accurate and complete original signed copies of an IRS Form W-8BEN, W-8ECI, or W-8IMY (or any successor or other applicable forms prescribed by the IRS), and if applicable, a new Withholding Certificate, to confirm or establish the entitlement of such Lender or Administrative Agent to an exemption from, or reduction in, United States withholding tax on interest payments to be made hereunder or under any Loan.

(ii) Each Lender that is not a Non-U.S. Participant (other than any such Lender which is taxed as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) shall provide two properly completed and duly executed copies of IRS Form W-9 (or any successor or other applicable form) to Borrower and Administrative Agent certifying that such Lender is exempt from United States backup withholding tax. To the extent that a form provided pursuant to this Section 7.6(d)(ii) is rendered obsolete or inaccurate in any material respects as result of change in circumstances with respect to the status of a Lender, such Lender shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent revised forms necessary to confirm or establish the entitlement to such Lender’s or Administrative Agent’s exemption from United States backup withholding tax.

(iii) Borrower shall not be required to pay additional amounts to a Lender, or indemnify any Lender, under this Section 7.6 to the extent that such obligations would not have arisen but for the failure of such Lender to comply with Section 7.6(d).

(iv) Each Lender agrees to indemnify Administrative Agent and hold Administrative Agent harmless for the full amount of any and all present or future Taxes and related liabilities (including penalties, interest, additions to tax and expenses, and any Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable to Administrative Agent under this Section 7.6) which are imposed on or with respect to principal, interest or fees payable to such Lender hereunder and which are not paid by Borrower pursuant to this Section 7.6, whether or not such Taxes or related liabilities were correctly or legally asserted. This indemnification shall be made within thirty (30) days from the date Administrative Agent makes written demand therefor.

ARTICLE VIII. INCREASED COSTS;

SPECIAL PROVISIONS FOR LIBOR LOANS.

Section 8.1. Increased Costs.

(a) If, after the date hereof, the adoption of, or any change in, any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration of any applicable law, rule or regulation by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency (i) shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve (including any reserve imposed by the FRB, but excluding any reserve included in the determination of the LIBOR Rate pursuant to Section 4), special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by any Lender; or (ii) shall impose on any Lender any other condition affecting its LIBOR Loans, its Notes or its obligation to make LIBOR Loans; and the result of anything described in subparts (i) and (ii) above is to increase the cost to (or to impose a cost on) such Lender (or any LIBOR Office of such Lender) of making or maintaining any LIBOR Loan, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender (or its LIBOR Office) under this Agreement or under its Notes with respect thereto, then, upon demand by such Lender (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth the basis for such demand and a calculation of the amount thereof in reasonable detail, a copy of which shall be furnished to Administrative Agent), Borrower shall pay directly to such Lender such additional amount as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or such reduction, so long as such amounts have accrued on or after the day which is one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the date on which such Lender first made demand therefor.

(b) If any Lender shall reasonably determine that any change in, or the adoption or phase-in of, any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or the compliance by any Lender or any Person controlling such Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s, or such controlling Person’s, capital as a consequence of such Lender’s obligations hereunder, or under any Letter of Credit, to a level below that which such Lender, or such controlling Person, could have achieved, but for such change, adoption, phase-in or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such controlling Person’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender or such controlling Person to be material, then, from time to time, upon demand by such Lender (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth the basis for such demand and a calculation of the amount thereof in reasonable detail, a copy of which shall be furnished to Administrative Agent), Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount as will compensate such Lender, or such controlling Person, for such reduction, so long as such amounts have accrued on or after the day which is one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the date on which such Lender first made demand therefor.

Section 8.2. Basis for Determining Interest Rate Inadequate or Unfair. If:

(a) Administrative Agent reasonably determines (which determination shall be binding and conclusive on Borrower) that by reason of circumstances affecting the interbank LIBOR market adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable LIBOR Rate; or

(b) the Required Lenders advise Administrative Agent that the LIBOR Rate as determined by Administrative Agent will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of maintaining or funding LIBOR Loans for such Interest Period (taking into account any amount to which such Lenders may be entitled under Section 8.1) or that the making or funding of LIBOR Loans has become impracticable as a result of an event occurring after the date of this Agreement which in the opinion of such Lenders materially affects such Loans; then Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the other parties thereof and, so long as such circumstances shall continue, (i) no Lender shall be under any obligation to make or convert any Base Rate Loan into one or more LIBOR Loans, and (ii) on the last day of the current Interest Period for each LIBOR Loan, such Loan shall, unless then repaid in full, automatically convert to a Base Rate Loan.

Section 8.3. Changes in Law Rendering LIBOR Loans Unlawful. If any change in, or the adoption of any new, law or regulation, or any change in the interpretation of any applicable law or regulation by any governmental or other regulatory body charged with the administration thereof, should make it (or in the good faith judgment of any Lender cause a substantial question as to whether it is) unlawful for any Lender to make, maintain or fund LIBOR Loans, then such Lender shall promptly notify each of the other parties hereto and, so long as such circumstances shall continue, (a) such Lender shall have no obligation to make or convert any Base Rate Loan into a LIBOR Loan (but shall make Base Rate Loans concurrently with the making of or conversion of Base Rate Loans into LIBOR Loans by the Lenders which are not so affected, in each case in an amount equal to the amount of LIBOR Loans which would be made or converted into by such Lender at such time in the absence of such circumstances), and (b) on the last day of the current Interest Period for each LIBOR Loan of such Lender (or, in any event, on such earlier date as may be required by the relevant law, regulation or interpretation), such LIBOR Loan shall, unless then repaid in full, automatically convert to a Base Rate Loan. Each Base Rate Loan made by a Lender which, but for the circumstances described in the foregoing sentence, would be a LIBOR Loan (an “Affected Loan”) shall remain outstanding for the period corresponding to the Group of LIBOR Loans of which such Affected Loan would be a part, absent such circumstances.

Section 8.4. Funding Losses. Borrower hereby agrees that, upon demand by any Lender (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth the basis for the amount being claimed, a copy of which shall be furnished to Administrative Agent), Borrower will indemnify such Lender against any net loss or expense which such Lender may sustain or incur (including any net loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund or maintain any LIBOR Loan), as reasonably determined by such Lender, as a result of (a) any payment, prepayment or conversion of any LIBOR Loan of such Lender on a date other than the last day of an Interest Period for such Loan (including any conversion pursuant to Section 8.3), or (b) any failure of Borrower to borrow, convert or continue any Loan on a date specified therefor in a notice of borrowing, conversion or continuation pursuant to this Agreement. For this purpose, all notices to Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to be irrevocable.

Section 8.5. Right of the Lenders to Fund through Other Offices. Each Lender may, if it so elects, fulfill its commitment as to any LIBOR Loan by causing a foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that, in such event for the purposes of this Agreement, such Loan shall be deemed to have been made by such Lender and the obligation of Borrower to repay such Loan shall nevertheless be to such Lender and shall be deemed held by it, to the extent of such Loan, for the account of such branch or Affiliate.

Section 8.6. Discretion of the Lenders as to Manner of Funding. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, each Lender shall be entitled to fund and maintain its funding of all or any part of its Loans in any manner it sees fit, it being understood, however, that, for the purposes of this Agreement, all determinations hereunder shall be made as if such Lender had actually funded and maintained each LIBOR Loan during each Interest Period for such Loan through the purchase of deposits having a maturity corresponding to such Interest Period, and bearing an interest rate equal to the LIBOR Rate for such Interest Period.

Section 8.7. Mitigation of Circumstances; Replacement of the Lenders.

(a) Each Lender shall promptly notify Borrower and Administrative Agent of any event of which it has knowledge that will result in, and will use reasonable commercial efforts available to it (and not, in such Lender’s sole judgment, otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender) to mitigate or avoid, (i) any obligation by Borrower to pay any amount pursuant to Sections 7.6 or 8.1, or (ii) the occurrence of any circumstances described in Sections 8.2 or 8.3 (and, if any Lender has given notice of any such event described in subpart (i) or (ii) above and thereafter such event ceases to exist, such Lender shall promptly so notify Borrower and Administrative Agent). Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender will designate a different funding office if such designation will avoid (or reduce the cost to Borrower of) any event described in subpart (i) or (ii) above and such designation will not, in such Lender’s sole judgment, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

(b) If Borrower becomes obligated to pay additional amounts to any Lender pursuant to Sections 7.6 or 8.1, or any Lender gives notice of the occurrence of any circumstances described in Sections 8.2 or 8.3, Borrower may designate another bank that is acceptable to Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender, in their reasonable discretion. (such other bank being called a “Replacement Lender”) to purchase the Loans of such Lender and such Lender’s rights hereunder, without recourse to or warranty by, or expense to, such Lender, for a purchase price equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Loans payable to such Lender, plus any accrued but unpaid interest on such Loans, and all accrued but unpaid fees owed to such Lender and any other amounts payable to such Lender under this Agreement, and to assume all the obligations of such Lender hereunder, and, upon such purchase and assumption (pursuant to an Assignment Agreement), such Lender shall no longer be a party hereto or have any rights hereunder (other than rights with respect to indemnities and similar rights applicable to such Lender prior to the date of such purchase and assumption) and shall be relieved from all obligations to Borrower hereunder, and the Replacement Lender shall succeed to the rights and obligations of such Lender hereunder.

Section 8.8. Conclusiveness of Statements; Survival of Provisions. Determinations and statements of any Lender pursuant to Sections 8.1, 8.2, 8.3 or 8.4 shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error. The Lenders may use reasonable averaging and attribution methods in determining compensation under Sections 8.1 and 8.4, and the provisions of such Sections shall survive repayment of the Obligations, cancellation of any Notes, expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and termination of this Agreement.

Each Pension Plan complies in all material respects with all applicable requirements of law and regulations. No contribution failure under Section 412 of the Code, Section 302 of ERISA or the terms of any Pension Plan has occurred with respect to any Pension Plan, sufficient to give rise to a Lien under Section 302(f) of ERISA, or otherwise to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Neither Borrower nor any other member of the Controlled Group has engaged in any prohibited transaction (as defined in Section 4975 of the Code or Section 406 of ERISA) in connection with any Pension Plan or Multiemployer Pension Plan which would subject that Person to any material liability. Within the past five years, neither Borrower nor any other member of the Controlled Group has engaged in a transaction which resulted in a Pension Plan with an Unfunded Liability being transferred out of the Controlled Group, which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Termination Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur with respect to any Pension Plan, which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

The Companies have made adequate reserves on their books and records in accordance with GAAP for all taxes that have accrued but which are not yet due and payable. No Company has participated in any transaction that relates to a year of the taxpayer (which is still open under the applicable statute of limitations) which is a “reportable transaction” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011-4(b)(2) (irrespective of the date when the transaction was entered into).

Section 9.14. Solvency. On the Closing Date, and immediately prior to and after giving effect to the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each borrowing hereunder and the use of the proceeds thereof, and the consummation of the Concord Acquisition and the Wilmington Acquisition, with respect to each Parent Entity, individually, (a) the fair value of its assets is greater than the total amount of its liabilities (including disputed, contingent and unliquidated liabilities) as such value is established and liabilities evaluated in accordance with GAAP, (b) the present fair saleable value of its assets is not less than the total amount that will be required to pay the probable liability on its debts as they become absolute and matured, (c) it is able to realize upon its assets and pay its debts and other liabilities (including disputed, contingent and unliquidated liabilities) as they mature in the normal course of business, (d) it does not intend to, and does not believe that it will, incur debts or liabilities beyond its ability to pay as such debts and liabilities mature, and (e) it is not engaged in business or a transaction, and is not about to engage in business or a transaction, for which its property would constitute unreasonably small capital.

Section 9.15. Environmental Matters.

Each Company has obtained, and maintained in good standing, all licenses, permits, authorizations, registrations and other approvals required under any Environmental Law and required for their respective ordinary course operations, and for their reasonably anticipated future operations, and each Company is in compliance with all terms and conditions thereof, except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to result in material liability to any Company and could not reasonably be expected to result, either individually or in the aggregate, in a Material Adverse Effect. No Company or any of its material properties or operations is subject to, or reasonably anticipates the issuance of, any written order from or agreement with any Federal, state or local governmental authority, nor subject to any judicial or docketed administrative or other proceeding, respecting any Environmental Law, Environmental Claim or Hazardous Substance. There are no Hazardous Substances or other conditions or circumstances existing with respect to any property, arising from operations prior to the Closing Date, or relating to any waste disposal, of any Company that would reasonably be expected to result, either individually or in the aggregate, in a Material Adverse Effect.

All such inspections or audits by Administrative Agent shall be at Borrower’s expense, provided that so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, Borrower shall not be required to reimburse Administrative Agent for inspections or audits more frequently than once each Fiscal Year.

Section 10.3. Maintenance of Property; Insurance. Borrower agrees that, unless at any time the Required Lenders shall otherwise expressly consent in writing, it will:

(a) Keep, and cause each other Parent Entity to keep, all material property useful and necessary in the business of the Parent Entities in good working order and condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted;

(b) Maintain, and cause each other Parent Entity to maintain, with responsible insurance companies, such insurance coverage as may be required by any law or governmental regulation or court decree or order applicable to it and such other insurance, to such extent and against such hazards and liabilities, as is customarily maintained by companies similarly situated, but which shall insure against all risks and liabilities of the type identified on Schedule 9.16 and shall have insured amounts no less than, and deductibles no higher than, those set forth on such schedule; and, upon request of Administrative Agent or any Lender, furnish to Administrative Agent or such Lender a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the nature and extent of all insurance maintained by the Parent Entities. Borrower shall cause each issuer of an insurance policy to provide Administrative Agent with an endorsement (i) showing Administrative Agent as loss payee with respect to each policy of property or casualty insurance and naming Administrative Agent as an additional insured with respect to each policy of liability insurance, (ii) providing that thirty (30) days’ notice will be given to Administrative Agent prior to any cancellation of, material reduction or change in coverage provided by or other material modification to such policy, and (iii) reasonably acceptable in all other respects to Administrative Agent. Borrower shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent a collateral assignment, in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent, of each business interruption insurance policy maintained by Borrower and its Subsidiaries; and

(c) Unless Borrower provides Administrative Agent with reasonable evidence of the insurance coverage required by this Agreement, Administrative Agent may purchase reasonable and appropriate insurance at Borrower’s expense to protect Administrative Agent’s and the Lenders’ interests in the Collateral. This insurance may, but need not, protect any Company’s interests. The coverage that Administrative Agent purchases may not pay any claim that is made against any Parent Entity in connection with the Collateral. Borrower may later cancel any insurance purchased by Administrative Agent, but only after providing Administrative Agent with evidence that Borrower has obtained insurance as required by this Agreement. If Administrative Agent purchases insurance for the Collateral, Borrower will be responsible for the reasonable costs of that insurance, including interest and any other charges that may be imposed with the placement of the insurance, until the effective date of the cancellation or expiration of the insurance. The costs of the insurance may be added to the principal amount of the Loans owing hereunder. The costs of the insurance may be more than the cost of the insurance the Parent Entities may be able to obtain on their own.

Section 10.4. Compliance with Laws; Payment of Taxes and Liabilities. Borrower agrees that it will (a) comply, and cause each other Parent Entity to comply, in all material respects with all applicable laws, rules, regulations, decrees, orders, judgments, licenses and permits, except where failure to comply could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; (b) without limiting subpart (a) above, ensure, and cause each other Parent Entity to ensure, that no person who owns a controlling interest in or otherwise controls a Parent Entity is or shall be (i) listed on the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Person List maintained by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”), Department of the Treasury, and/or any other similar lists maintained by OFAC pursuant to any authorizing statute, Executive Order or regulation or (ii) a person designated under Section 1(b), (c) or (d) of Executive Order No. 13224 (September 23, 2001), any related enabling legislation or any other similar Executive Orders, (c) without limiting subpart (a) above, comply, and cause each other Parent Entity to comply, with all applicable Bank Secrecy Act (“BSA”) and anti-money laundering laws and regulations and (d) pay, and cause each other Parent Entity to pay, prior to delinquency, all material taxes and other governmental charges against it or any Collateral, as well as claims of any kind which, if unpaid, could become a Lien on any of its property; provided that the foregoing shall not require any Parent Entity to pay any such tax or charge so long as it shall contest the validity thereof in good faith by appropriate proceedings and shall set aside on its books adequate reserves with respect thereto in accordance with GAAP and, in the case of a claim which could become a Lien on any Collateral, such contest proceedings shall stay the foreclosure of such Lien or the sale of any portion of the Collateral to satisfy such claim.

Section 10.5. Maintenance of Existence. Borrower agrees that it will maintain and preserve, and (subject to Section 11.4) cause each other Parent Entity to maintain and preserve, (a) its existence and good standing in the jurisdiction of its organization and (b) its qualification to do business and good standing in each jurisdiction where the nature of its business makes such qualification necessary (other than such jurisdictions in which the failure to be qualified or in good standing could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect).

Section 10.6. Use of Proceeds. Borrower agrees that, unless at any time the Required Lenders shall otherwise expressly consent in writing, it will use the proceeds of the Loans, and the Letters of Credit, solely to finance the Related Transactions and for working capital, capital expenditures and for other general business purposes; and not use or permit any proceeds of any Loan to be used, either directly or indirectly, for the purpose, whether immediate, incidental or ultimate, of “purchasing or carrying” any Margin Stock.

(b) make, and cause each other member of the Controlled Group to make, on a timely basis, all required contributions to any Multiemployer Pension Plan; and

(c) not, and not permit any other member of the Controlled Group to (i) seek a waiver of the minimum funding standards of ERISA, (ii) terminate or withdraw from any Pension Plan or Multiemployer Pension Plan or (iii) take any other action with respect to any Pension Plan that would reasonably be expected to entitle the PBGC to terminate, impose liability in respect of, or cause a trustee to be appointed to administer, any Pension Plan, unless the actions or events described in subparts (i), (ii) and (iii) individually or in the aggregate would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 10.8. Environmental Matters. Borrower agrees that, if any release or threatened release or other disposal of Hazardous Substances shall occur or shall have occurred on any material real property or any other assets of any Parent Entity, Borrower shall, or shall cause the applicable Parent Entity to, cause the prompt containment and removal of such Hazardous Substances and the remediation of such real property or other assets as necessary to comply with all Environmental Laws and to preserve the value of such real property or other assets. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrower shall, and shall cause each other Parent Entity to, comply in all material respects with any Federal or state judicial or administrative order requiring the performance at any material real property of any Parent Entity of activities in response to the release or threatened release of a Hazardous Substance. To the extent that the transportation of Hazardous Substances is permitted by this Agreement, Borrower shall, and shall cause each other Parent Entity to, dispose of such Hazardous Substances, or of any other wastes, only at licensed disposal facilities operating in compliance with Environmental Laws.

Section 10.9. Further Assurances. Borrower agrees that it will promptly (as soon as reasonably practicable) take, and cause each other Parent Entity to take, such actions as are necessary or as Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders may reasonably request from time to time to ensure that the Secured Obligations under the Loan Documents are secured by substantially all of the assets of each Parent Entity (that is not a Dormant Subsidiary or a Foreign Subsidiary) and that the Secured Obligations are guaranteed by each Parent Entity (that is not Borrower, a Dormant Subsidiary or a Foreign Subsidiary) (including, upon the acquisition or creation thereof, any such Subsidiary of Parent acquired or created after the Closing Date), in each case as Administrative Agent may determine, including (a) the execution and delivery of guaranties, security agreements, pledge agreements, mortgages, deeds of trust, financing statements and other documents, and the filing or recording of any of the foregoing, and (b) the delivery of certificated securities and other Collateral with respect to which perfection is obtained by possession.

Section 10.12. Syndication. Borrower agrees that it will enter into such modifications to the Loan Documents as Administrative Agent may reasonably request as necessary for the initial syndication of the Loans and the Commitments and, in the event such initial syndication shall prove to be impracticable in Administrative Agent’s reasonable determination, such modifications as Administrative Agent may reasonably request as necessary to make the syndication of the Loans and the Commitments reasonably practicable; provided that, without the written consent of Borrower, Administrative Agent may not change the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment, the Term Loan Commitment or the CAPEX Commitment, shorten the maturity date of any Loan, or change the senior secured status of the credit facilities evidenced by this Agreement.

ARTICLE XIV. THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT.

Section 14.1. Appointment and Authorization. Each Lender hereby irrevocably (subject to Section 14.10) appoints, designates and authorizes Administrative Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall Administrative Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender or participant, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against Administrative Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” herein and in other Loan Documents with reference to Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

Section 14.2. Issuing Lender. The Issuing Lender shall act on behalf of the Lenders (according to their Pro Rata Shares) with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith. The Issuing Lender shall have all of the benefits and immunities (a) provided to Administrative Agent in this Article XIV with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by the Issuing Lender in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and the applications and agreements for letters of credit pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent”, as used in this Article XIV, included the Issuing Lender with respect to such acts or omissions, and (b) as additionally provided in this Agreement with respect to the Issuing Lender.

Section 14.3 Delegation of Duties. Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultants or experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Section 14.4. Exculpation of Administrative Agent. None of Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall (a) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except to the extent resulting from its own gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein as determined by a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction), or (b) be responsible in any manner to any Lender or participant for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by any Parent Entity or Affiliate of Borrower, or any officer thereof, contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (or the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien or security interest therein), or for any failure of Borrower or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its Obligations hereunder or thereunder. Administrative Agent 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 Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of Borrower or any of Borrower’s Subsidiaries or Affiliates.

Section 14.5. Reliance by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, communication, signature, resolution, representation, notice, consent, certificate, electronic mail message, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, statement 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 Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, confirmation from the Lenders of their obligation to indemnify Administrative Agent against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Lenders and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon each Lender. For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Article XII, each Lender that has signed this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a Lender unless Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from such Lender prior to the proposed Closing Date specifying its objection thereto.

Section 14.6. Notice of Default. Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default, or Event of Default except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, unless Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. Administrative Agent will notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice. Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be requested by the Required Lenders in accordance with Section 13.2; provided that, unless and until Administrative Agent has received any such request, Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Lenders.

Section 14.7. Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that Administrative Agent has not made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any consent and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of the Companies, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by Administrative Agent to any Lender as to any matter, including whether Administrative Agent has disclosed material information in its possession. Each Lender represents to Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Companies, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to Borrower hereunder. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent 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 Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Borrower and its Affiliates. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly herein required to be furnished to the Lenders by Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial or other condition or creditworthiness of Borrower and its Affiliates which may come into the possession of Administrative Agent.

Section 14.8. Indemnification. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, each Lender shall indemnify upon demand Administrative Agent and its directors, officers, employees and agents (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrower and without limiting the obligation of Borrower to do so), according to its applicable Pro Rata Share, from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities (as hereinafter defined); provided that no Lender shall be liable for any payment to any such Person of any portion of the Indemnified Liabilities to the extent determined by a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the applicable Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct. No action taken in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse Administrative Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including Attorney Costs and Taxes) incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of Borrower. The undertaking in this Section 14.8 shall survive repayment of the Loans, cancellation of the Notes, expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit, any foreclosure under, or modification, release or discharge of, any or all of the Loan Documents, termination of this Agreement and the resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent.

Section 14.9. Administrative Agent in Individual Capacity. LaSalle and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with the Companies and Affiliates as though LaSalle were not Administrative Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that, pursuant to such activities, LaSalle or its Affiliates may receive information regarding Borrower or its Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of Borrower or such Affiliate) and acknowledge that Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to their Loans (if any), LaSalle and its Affiliates shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though LaSalle were not Administrative Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” include LaSalle and its Affiliates, to the extent applicable, in their individual capacities.

Section 14.10. Successor Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon thirty (30) days’ notice to the Lenders. If Administrative Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall, with (so long as no Event of Default exists) the consent of Borrower (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders. If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders and Borrower, a successor agent from among the Lenders. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor agent hereunder, such successor agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the term “Administrative Agent” means such successor agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 14 and Sections 15.5 and 15.16 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date which is thirty (30) days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Lenders shall perform all of the duties of Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above.

Section 14.11. Collateral Matters. The Lenders irrevocably authorize Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, (a) to release any Lien granted to or held by Administrative Agent under any Collateral Document (i) upon termination of the Commitments and payment in full of all Loans and all other obligations of Borrower hereunder and the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit; (ii) constituting property sold or to be sold or disposed of as part of or in connection with any disposition permitted hereunder; or (iii) subject to Section 15.1, if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders; or (b) to subordinate its interest in any Collateral to any holder of a Lien on such Collateral which is permitted by Section 11.2(d)(i) or (d)(iii) (it being understood that Administrative Agent may conclusively rely on a certificate from Borrower in determining whether the Indebtedness secured by any such Lien is permitted by Section 11.1(b)). Upon request by Administrative Agent at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing Administrative Agent’s authority to release, or subordinate its interest in, particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 14.11.

Section 14.12. Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Company, Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, and all other Secured Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and Administrative Agent under Sections 5, 15.5 and 15.16 allowed in such judicial proceedings; and

(b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to Administrative Agent and, in the event that Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due Administrative Agent under Sections 5, 15.5 and 15.16.

Section 15.6. Assignments; Participations.

15.6.1. Assignments.

(a) Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Persons (any such Person, an “Assignee”) all or a portion of such Lender’s Loans and Commitments, with the prior written consent of Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender (for an assignment of the Revolving Loans and the Revolving Credit Commitment) and, so long as no Event of Default exists, Borrower (which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and shall not be required for an assignment by a Lender to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender); provided that each Lender shall at all times maintain the same Commitment Percentage (as rounded to the sixth decimal) with respect to the Revolving Credit Commitment, the Term Loan Commitment and the CAPEX Commitment. Except as Administrative Agent may otherwise agree, any such assignment shall be in a minimum aggregate amount equal to Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) or, if less, the remaining Commitment and Loans held by the assigning Lender. Borrower and Administrative Agent shall be entitled to continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with the interests so assigned to an Assignee until Administrative Agent shall have received and accepted an effective Assignment Agreement executed, delivered and fully completed by the applicable parties thereto and a processing fee of Three Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($3,500). No assignment may be made to any Person if at the time of such assignment Borrower would be obligated to pay any greater amount under Section 7.6 or Article VIII to the Assignee than Borrower is then obligated to pay to the assigning Lender under such Sections (and if any assignment is made in violation of the foregoing, Borrower will not be required to pay such greater amounts). Any attempted assignment not made in accordance with this Section 15.6.1 shall be treated as the sale of a participation under Section 15.6.2. Borrower shall be deemed to have granted its consent to any assignment requiring its consent hereunder unless Borrower has expressly objected to such assignment within three Business Days after notice thereof.

(b) From and after the date on which the conditions described above have been met, (i) such Assignee shall be deemed automatically to have become a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to such Assignee pursuant to such Assignment Agreement, shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and (ii) the assigning Lender, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment Agreement, shall be released from its rights (other than its indemnification rights) and obligations hereunder. Upon the request of the Assignee (and, as applicable, the assigning Lender) pursuant to an effective Assignment Agreement, Borrower shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent for delivery to the Assignee (and, as applicable, the assigning Lender) Notes in the principal amount of the Assignee’s Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Credit Commitment, plus the CAPEX Draw Facility Commitment, plus the principal amount of the Assignee’s portion of the Term Loan, plus the principal amount of the Assignee’s portion of the CAPEX Term Loan (and, as applicable, Notes in the principal amount of the Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Credit Commitment retained by the assigning Lender, plus the CAPEX Draw Facility Commitment retained by the assigning Lender, plus the principal amount of the portion of the Term Loan retained by the assigning Lender, plus the principal amount of the portion of the CAPEX Term Loan retained by the assigning Lender). Each such Note shall be dated the effective date of such assignment. Upon receipt by the assigning Lender of such Note, the assigning Lender shall return to Borrower any prior Note held by it.

(c) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

15.6.2. Participations. Any Lender may at any time sell to one or more Persons participating interests in its Loans, Commitments or other interests hereunder (any such Person, a “Participant”). In the event of a sale by a Lender of a participating interest to a Participant, (a) such Lender’s obligations hereunder shall remain unchanged for all purposes, (b) Borrower and Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations hereunder and (c) all amounts payable by Borrower shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation and shall be paid directly to such Lender. No Participant shall have any direct or indirect voting rights hereunder. Borrower agrees that if amounts outstanding under this Agreement are due and payable (as a result of acceleration or otherwise), each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of set-off in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement and with respect to any Letter of Credit to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement; provided that such right of set-off shall be subject to the obligation of each Participant to share with the Lenders, and the Lenders agree to share with each Participant, as provided in Section 7.5. Borrower also agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 7.6 or Article VIII as if it were a Lender (provided that on the date of the participation no Participant shall be entitled to any greater compensation pursuant to Section 7.6 or Article VIII than would have been paid to the participating Lender on such date if no participation had been sold and that each Participant complies with Section 7.6(d) as if it were an Assignee).

Section 15.7. Register. Administrative Agent shall maintain a copy of each Assignment Agreement delivered and accepted by it and register (the “Register”) for the recordation of names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment of each Lender from time to time and whether such Lender is the original Lender or the Assignee. No assignment shall be effective unless and until the Assignment Agreement is accepted and registered in the Register. All records of transfer of a Lender’s interest in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, as to the ownership of the interests in the Loans. Administrative Agent shall not incur any liability of any kind with respect to any Lender with respect to the maintenance of the Register.

Section 15.8. Governing Law. This Agreement and each Note shall be a contract made under and governed by the internal laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts made and to be performed entirely within such state, without regard to conflict of laws principles.

Section 15.9. Severability. Whenever possible each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement. All obligations of Borrower and rights of Administrative Agent and the Lenders expressed herein or in any other Loan Document shall be in addition to and not in limitation of those provided by applicable law.

Section 15.10. Nature of Remedies. All Obligations of Borrower and rights of Administrative Agent and the Lenders expressed herein or in any other Loan Document shall be in addition to and not in limitation of those provided by applicable law. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of Administrative Agent or any Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.

Section 15.11. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, embodies the entire agreement and understanding among the parties hereto and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous agreements and understandings of such Persons, verbal or written, relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof (except as relates to the fees described in Section 5.3) and any prior arrangements made with respect to the payment by Borrower of (or any indemnification for) any fees, costs or expenses payable to or incurred (or to be incurred) by or on behalf of Administrative Agent or the Lenders.

Section 15.12. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts and each such counterpart shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same Agreement. Receipt of an executed signature page to this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall constitute effective delivery thereof. Electronic records of executed Loan Documents maintained by the Lenders shall deemed to be originals.

Section 15.13. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon Borrower, the Lenders and Administrative Agent and their respective successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of Borrower, the Lenders and Administrative Agent and the successors and assigns of the Lenders and Administrative Agent. No other Person shall be a direct or indirect legal beneficiary of, or have any direct or indirect cause of action or claim in connection with, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights or Obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent and each Lender.

Section 15.14. Captions. Section captions used in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction of this Agreement.

Section 15.15. Customer Identification - USA Patriot Act Notice. Each Lender and LaSalle (for itself and not on behalf of any other party) hereby notifies the Parent Entities that, pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act, Title III of Pub. L. 107-56, signed into law October 26, 2001 (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Parent Entities, which information includes the name and address of the Parent Entities and other information that will allow such Lender or LaSalle, as applicable, to identify the Companies in accordance with the Act.

Section 15.16. Indemnification by Borrower. In consideration of the execution and delivery of this Agreement by Administrative Agent and the Lenders and the agreement to extend the Commitments provided hereunder, Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify, exonerate and hold Administrative Agent, each Lender and each of the officers, directors, employees, affiliates and agents of Administrative Agent and each Lender (each a “Lender Party”) free and harmless from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, losses, liabilities, damages and expenses, including reasonable attorney costs (collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), incurred by the Lender Parties or any of them as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to (a) any tender offer, merger, purchase of capital securities, purchase of assets (including the Related Transactions) or other similar transaction financed or proposed to be financed in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, with the proceeds of any of the Loans, (b) the use, handling, release, emission, discharge, transportation, storage, treatment or disposal of any Hazardous Substance at any property owned or leased by any Company, (c) any violation of any Environmental Laws with respect to conditions at any property owned or leased by any Company or the operations conducted thereon, (d) the investigation, cleanup or remediation of offsite locations at which any Company or their respective predecessors are alleged to have directly or indirectly disposed of Hazardous Substances or (e) the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by any of the Lender Parties, except for any such Indemnified Liabilities arising on account of the applicable Lender Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. If and to the extent that the foregoing undertaking may be unenforceable for any reason, Borrower hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law. All Obligations provided for in this Section 15.16 shall survive repayment of the Loans, cancellation of the Notes, expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit, any foreclosure under, or any modification, release or discharge of, any or all of the Loan Documents and termination of this Agreement.

Section 15.17. Nonliability of the Lenders. The relationship between the Parent Entities on the one hand and the Lenders and Administrative Agent on the other hand shall be solely that of borrower and lender.

Neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender undertakes any responsibility to any Parent Entity to review or inform any Parent Entity of any matter in connection with any phase of any Parent Entity’s business or operations. Borrower agrees, on behalf of itself and each other Parent Entity, that neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have liability to any Parent Entity (whether sounding in tort, contract or otherwise) for losses suffered by any Parent Entity in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to the transactions contemplated and the relationship established by the Loan Documents, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith, unless it is determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction that such losses resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party from which recovery is sought. NO LENDER PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES ARISING FROM THE USE BY OTHERS OF ANY INFORMATION OR OTHER MATERIALS OBTAINED THROUGH INTRALINKS OR OTHER SIMILAR INFORMATION TRANSMISSION SYSTEMS IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, NOR SHALL ANY LENDER PARTY HAVE ANY LIABILITY WITH RESPECT TO, AND BORROWER ON BEHALF OF ITSELF AND EACH OTHER PARENT ENTITY, HEREBY WAIVES, RELEASES AND AGREES NOT TO XXX FOR ANY SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR ARISING OUT OF ITS ACTIVITIES IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THEREWITH (WHETHER BEFORE OR AFTER THE CLOSING DATE, EXCEPT FOR GROSS NEGLIGENCE BY OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT AS DETERMINED BY A FINAL, NONAPPEALABLE JUDGMENT BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION). Borrower acknowledges that it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party. No joint venture is created hereby or by the other Loan Documents or otherwise exists by virtue of the transactions contemplated hereby among the Lenders or among the Parent Entities and the Lenders.
