LOAN AGREEMENT

This Loan Agreement dated as of July 12, 2001 (this "Agreement") among the lenders from time to time parties hereto (such lenders, together with their respective successors and assigns, are referred to hereinafter each individually as a "Lender" and collectively as the "Lenders"), SPECIAL VALUE INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT, LLC, with an office at 00000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000, as administrative and collateral agent for the Lenders (in its capacity as administrative and collateral agent, the "Agent"), and UNOVA, INC., a Delaware corporation (the "Parent"), UNOVA INDUSTRIAL AUTOMATION SYSTEMS, INC., a Delaware corporation, INTERMEC TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION, a Washington corporation, R&B MACHINE TOOL COMPANY, a Michigan corporation, X.X. XXXXXXXX COMPANY, a Michigan corporation, M M & E, INC., a Nevada corporation, INTERMEC IP CORP., a Delaware corporation, and UNOVA IP CORP., a Delaware corporation (each individually a "Borrower" and all collectively the "Borrowers").

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, the Borrowers have requested the Lenders to make available to the Borrowers a term loan in an amount not to exceed $75,000,000 and which extension of credit the Borrowers will use for the purposes permitted hereunder;

WHEREAS, capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in Annex A which is attached hereto and incorporated herein; the rules of construction contained therein shall govern the interpretation of this Agreement, and all Annexes, Exhibits and Schedules attached hereto are incorporated herein by reference;

WHEREAS, the Lenders have agreed to make available to the Borrowers a term loan upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual conditions and agreements set forth in this Agreement, and for good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the Lenders, the Agent, and the Borrowers hereby agree as follows.

ARTICLE 1

TERM LOAN

1.1 Term Loan. Each Lender severally agrees, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, to make a term loan (collectively, the "Term Loan") to the Borrowers in a single borrowing on the Closing Date, in a principal amount not to exceed such Lender's Term Commitment. The Borrowers shall execute and deliver to each Lender a promissory note in the principal amount of the Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Term Loan, dated the date hereof and in substantially the form of Exhibit A (each a "Term Note" and, collectively, the "Term Notes"). Each Term Note shall represent the joint and several obligation of each of the Borrowers to repay the applicable Lender's Pro Rata Share of the unpaid principal amount of the Term Loan together with interest thereon as prescribed in Section 2.1. The entire unpaid balance of the Term Loan and all other non-contingent Obligations shall be immediately due and payable in full in immediately available funds on the Maturity Date. Any portion of the Term Commitments that are not funded as of the Closing Date shall expire and be of no further force or effect. Any portion of the Term Loan that is prepaid cannot be reborrowed.

ARTICLE 2

INTEREST AND FEES

2.1 Interest.

(a) Interest Rates. The outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan and all other monetary Obligations that are outstanding from time to time (including, to the extent permitted by law, interest not paid when due) shall bear interest from the Closing Date (in the case of the Term

Loan) or the date such Obligation is due and payable (in the case of all other Obligations), until paid in full in cash at a per annum rate determined by reference to the LIBOR Rate or, at the election of the Borrowers, the Base Rate) as set forth below. Accrued interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed. The Borrowers shall pay to each Lender interest accrued on its Pro Rata Share of all Base Rate Loans in arrears on the first Business Day of each calendar month commencing August 1, 2001 (each an "Interest Payment Date"). The Borrowers shall pay to each Lender interest accrued on its Pro Rata Share of all LIBOR Rate Loans in arrears on each LIBOR Interest Payment Date. Except as otherwise provided herein, the outstanding Obligations shall bear interest as follows:

(i) While any portion of the Term Loan is a LIBOR Rate Loan, at a per annum rate equal to the LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Margin;

(ii) While any portion of the Term Loan is a Base Rate Loan, and with respect to all other Obligations, at a fluctuating per annum rate equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

Each change in the Base Rate shall be reflected in the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans as of the effective date of such change. The foregoing notwithstanding, at no time shall any portion of the Obligations bear interest at a per annum rate less than 13.0%. To the extent that interest accrued hereunder at the rate set forth herein would be less than the foregoing minimum rate, the interest rate chargeable hereunder for the applicable period automatically shall be deemed increased to the minimum rate.

(b) Default Rate. If any Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing then, while any such Default or Event of Default is continuing, all of the Obligations shall bear interest at the Default Rate applicable thereto.

2.2 Continuation and Conversion of LIBOR Interest Periods; Conversion Into Base Rate Loans.

(a) So long as no Event of Default exists, and to the extent no circumstances described in Section 4.2 exists, on the last day of an Interest Period of a LIBOR Rate Loan, the portion of the Term Loan that is a LIBOR Rate Loan shall, without further action by the Borrowers, the Agent or any Lender, be continued as a LIBOR Rate Loan for a successive Interest Period.

(b) If an Event of Default exists on the last day of an Interest Period of a LIBOR Rate Loan or any circumstance described in Section 4.2 or 4.5 then exists, such LIBOR Rate Loan (or, in the event circumstances described in Section 4.2 exist with respect to one or more Lenders, the affected portion of the LIBOR Rate Loan) shall, without further action by the Borrowers, the Agent, or any Lender, convert into a Base Rate Loan.

(c) On the last day of an Interest Period of a LIBOR Rate Loan, Borrowers may elect to convert all or a part of such LIBOR Rate Loan into a Base Rate Loan.

(d) At any time that all or a part of the Term Loan is a Base Rate Loan, the Borrowers may elect (subject to Section 2.2(f)), as of any Business Day, to convert the Base Rate Loan (or any part thereof in an amount not less than $5,000,000, or that is in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof) into a LIBOR Rate Loan; provided, however, that the Borrowers may not so convert a Base Rate Loan into a LIBOR Rate Loan to the extent circumstances described in Section 4.2 or 4.5 exist on such Business Day; provided, further, that if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrowers shall have no right to convert a Base Rate Loan into a LIBOR Rate Loan.

(e) If the Borrowers desire to convert all or a part of a Base Rate Loan into a LIBOR Rate Loan, the Borrowers shall deliver a notice of conversion ("Notice of Conversion") to the Agent not

later than 2:00 p.m. (Los Angeles, California time) at least three (3) Business Days in advance of the Conversion Date, and specifying:

(i) the proposed Conversion Date;

(ii) the portion of the Term Loan to be converted or renewed;

(iii) the types of the respective portions of the Term Loan resulting from the proposed conversion or continuation; and

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

(f) The Agent will promptly notify each affected Lender of its receipt of a Notice of Conversion.

(g) There may not be more than five (5) Interest Periods in respect of the Term Loan while it is a LIBOR Rate Loan in effect hereunder at any time.

2.3 Maximum Interest Rate. Notwithstanding Section 2.1(a) and (b), in no event shall any interest rate provided for hereunder exceed the maximum rate legally chargeable by any Lender under applicable law for such Lender with respect to loans of the type provided for hereunder (the "Maximum Rate"). If, in any month, any interest rate, absent such limitation, would have exceeded the Maximum Rate, then the interest rate for that month shall be the Maximum Rate, and, if in future months, that interest rate would otherwise be less than the Maximum Rate, then that interest rate shall remain at the Maximum Rate until such time as the amount of interest paid hereunder equals the amount of interest which would have been paid if the same had not been limited by the Maximum Rate. In the event that, upon payment in full of the Obligations, the total amount of interest paid or accrued under the terms of this Agreement is less than the total amount of interest which would, but for this Section 2.3, have been paid or accrued if the interest rate otherwise set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect, then the Borrowers shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, pay the Agent, for the account of the Lenders, an amount equal to the excess of (a) the lesser of (i) the amount of interest which would have been charged if the Maximum Rate had, at all times, been in effect or (ii) the amount of interest which would have accrued had the interest rate otherwise set forth in this Agreement, at all times, been in effect over (b) the amount of interest actually paid or accrued under this Agreement. If a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the Agent and/or any Lender has received interest and other charges hereunder in excess of the Maximum Rate, such excess shall be deemed received on account of, and shall automatically be applied to reduce, the Obligations other than interest, ratably among the Lenders on the basis of their respective Pro Rata Shares of the Term Loan, and if there are no Obligations outstanding, the Agent and/or such Lender shall refund to the Borrowers such excess.

2.4 Fees. The Borrowers agree to pay the Agent on the Closing Date, for its solely and separate account and not the account of any Lender, a closing fee in the amount set forth in a separate letter agreement dated as of May 15, 2001 between the Parent and the Agent.

ARTICLE 3

PAYMENTS AND PREPAYMENTS

3.1 Mandatory Prepayments

(a) The Borrowers shall repay the Term Loan in full in cash and pay all other non-contingent monetary Obligations that are then due and payable on the Maturity Date.

(b) The Borrowers shall prepay the Term Loan, in whole or in part, and pay all accrued but unpaid interest on the portion so prepaid, on a pro rata basis among the Lenders in accordance

with their respective Pro Rata Shares of the Term Loan on the date that any Borrower receives the Net Cash Proceeds from (i) the sale of any Designated Collateral, or (ii) any casualty insurance proceeds with respect to any Designated Collateral to the extent such casualty insurance proceeds are not used to rebuild, reconstruct, or replace the affected Designated Collateral in accordance with the terms of the applicable Mortgage, or (iii) any eminent domain, condemnation or similar taking with respect to any Designated Collateral, in each case, other than in connection with the sale or other disposition of the Headquarters Property, in an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds received, and in connection with the sale or other disposition of the Headquarters Property, an amount equal to the first $5,000,000 of Net Cash Proceeds received upon the sale or other disposition thereof. Each mandatory prepayment of the Term Loan made pursuant to this Section 3.1(b) shall be applied first to any Base Rate Loans until paid in full, then to any LIBOR Rate Loans until paid in full.

(c) In conjunction with each mandatory prepayment of the Term Loan required pursuant to (i) Sections 3.1(a) and (b) hereof, the Borrowers shall pay to each Lender, with respect to any LIBOR Rate Loan prepaid, the amounts due under Section 4.4, if any, and (ii) Section 3.1(b) hereof, the Borrowers shall pay to each Lender a mandatory prepayment fee in an amount equal to the Adjusted Applicable Prepayment Premium corresponding to the required mandatory prepayment amount.

3.2 Optional Prepayment. The Borrowers shall have the right, at any time and from time to time, upon 1 Business Days' prior written notice with respect to Base Rate Loans and 3 Business Days' prior written notice with respect to LIBOR Rate Loans, in each case, to Agent and the Lenders, to prepay the Term Loan in whole or in part, by paying to the Lenders, in immediately available funds, (a) the then outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan, or in the case of a partial prepayment of the Term Loan, the principal amount so prepaid, (b) all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, (c) the Applicable Prepayment Premium, (d) with respect to the LIBOR Rate Loan prepaid, any amounts due under Section 4.4, if any, and (e) in the case of a prepayment in full of the Term Loan all reimbursable expenses and other non-contingent monetary Obligations.

3.3 Payments by the Borrowers.

(a) All payments to be made by the Borrowers shall be made without set-off, recoupment or counterclaim. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrowers shall be made to each Lender, at the account designated by such Lender and shall be made in Dollars and in immediately available funds, no later than 12:00 noon (Los Angeles, California time) on the date specified herein. Any payment received by the Lenders after such time shall be deemed (for purposes of calculating interest only) to have been received on the following Business Day and any applicable interest shall continue to accrue.

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

3.4 Indemnity for Returned Payments. If after receipt of any payment which is applied to the payment of all or any part of the Obligations, the Agent or any Lender is for any reason compelled to surrender such payment or proceeds to any Person because such payment or application of proceeds is invalidated, declared fraudulent, set aside, determined to be void or voidable as a preference, impermissible setoff, or a diversion of trust funds, or for any other reason, then the Obligations or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued and this Agreement shall continue in full force as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by the Agent or such Lender and the Borrowers shall be liable to pay to the Agent and the Lenders, and hereby does indemnify the Agent and the Lenders and hold the Agent and the Lenders harmless for the amount of such payment or

proceeds surrendered. The provisions of this Section 3.4 shall be and remain effective notwithstanding any contrary action which may have been taken by the Agent or any Lender in reliance upon such payment or application of proceeds, and any such contrary action so taken shall be without prejudice to the Agent's and the Lenders' rights under this Agreement and shall be deemed to have been conditioned upon such payment or application of proceeds having become final and irrevocable. The provisions of this Section 3.4 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

ARTICLE 4

TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

4.1 Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by or on behalf of the Borrowers to each Lender or the Agent under this Agreement and any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes. In addition, the Borrowers shall pay all Other Taxes.

(b) The Borrowers agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Lender and the Agent for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section) paid by any Lender or the Agent and any liability (including penalties, interest, additions to tax and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. Payment under this indemnification shall be made within 45 days after the date such Lender or the Agent makes written demand therefor.

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

(i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions and withholdings (including deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) such Lender or the Agent, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made;

(ii) the Borrowers shall make such deductions and withholdings;

(iii) the Borrowers shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant taxing authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law; and

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

(d) Each Lender that is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) agrees to deliver to the Borrowers on or prior to the Closing Date or in the case of a Lender that is an assignee or transferee of an interest under this Agreement (unless the respective Lender was already a Lender hereunder immediately prior to such assignment or transfer), on the date of such assignment or transfer to such Lender, (i) two accurate and complete original signed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI or Form W-8BEN with respect to a complete exemption under an income tax treaty (or successor forms) certifying to such Lender's entitlement to a complete exemption from United States withholding tax with respect to payments to be made under this Agreement, or (ii) if the Lender is not a "bank" within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code or otherwise cannot deliver either IRS Form W-8ECI or Form W-8BEN with respect to a complete exemption under an income tax treaty pursuant to clause (i) above, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F (any such

certificate, a "Section 4.1(d) Certificate"), and (y) two accurate and complete original signed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN (with respect to the portfolio interest exemption) (or successor form) certifying to such Lender's entitlement to a complete exemption from United States withholding tax with respect to payments of interest to be made under this Agreement and under any Note. In addition, each Lender agrees that from time to time after the Closing Date, when a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders the previous certification obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, it will deliver to the Borrowers two new accurate and compete original signed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI, Form W-8BEN (with respect to the benefits of any income tax treaty), or Form W-8BEN (with respect to the portfolio interest exemption) and a Section 4.1(d) Certificate, as the case may be, and such other forms as may be required in order to confirm or establish the entitlement of such Lender to a continued exemption from or reduction in United States withholding tax with respect to payments under this Agreement, or it shall immediately notify the Borrowers of its inability to deliver any such Form or Certificate, in which case such Lender shall not be required to deliver any such Form or Certificate pursuant to this Section 4.1(d).

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 4.1(d), but subject to the immediately succeeding sentence (x) the Borrowers shall be entitled, to the extent they are required to do so by law, to deduct or withhold income or similar taxes imposed by the United States (or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein) from interest, fees or other amounts payable hereunder for the account of any Lender that is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) for U.S. Federal income tax purposes to the extent that such Lender has not provided to the Borrowers U.S. IRS Forms that establish a complete exemption from such deduction or withholding, and (y) the Borrowers shall not be obligated pursuant to Section 4.1 hereof to gross-up payments to be made to a Lender in respect of income or similar taxes imposed by the United States if (i) such Lender has not provided to the Borrowers the IRS Forms required to be provided to the Borrowers pursuant to this Section 4.1, or (ii) in the case of a payment, other than interest, to a Lender described in clause (ii) above, to the extent that such forms do not establish a complete exemption from withholding of such taxes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the preceding sentence or elsewhere in this Section 4.1, the Borrowers agree to pay additional amounts and to indemnify each Lender in the manner set forth in Section 4.1(b) (without regard to the identity of the jurisdiction requiring the deduction or withholding) in respect of any amounts deducted or withheld by it was described in the immediately preceding sentence as a result of any changes after the Closing Date in any applicable law, treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order, or in the interpretation thereof, relating to the deduction or withholding of taxes.

(f) Within forty-five (45) days after the date of any payment by the Borrowers of Taxes or Other Taxes, the Borrowers shall furnish the Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof, or other evidence of payment satisfactory to the Agent.

(g) If the Borrowers determine in good faith that a reasonable basis exists for contesting any taxes for which indemnification has been demanded hereunder, the relevant Lender shall reasonably cooperate with the Borrowers in challenging such taxes at the Borrowers' expense if so requested by the Borrowers. If the Borrowers pay any additional amount pursuant to this Section 4.1 and a Lender determines in its sole discretion that it has actually received or realized in connection therewith any refund of tax or credit against its tax liabilities in or with respect to the taxable year in which the additional amount is paid by the Borrowers (a "Tax Benefit"), such Lender shall pay to the Borrowers an amount that such Lender determines, in its sole judgment, is equal to the net tax benefit obtained by such Lender as a result of such payment by the Borrowers. Whether or not a Lender claims any refund or credit shall be in the sole discretion of each Lender. Any Taxes that are imposed on a Lender as a result of a disallowance or reduction (including through the expiration of any tax credit carryover or carryback of such Lender that

otherwise would not have expired) of any Tax Benefit with respect to with such Lender has made a payment to the Borrowers pursuant to this Section 4.1(g) shall be treated as a Tax for which the Borrowers are obligated to indemnify such Lender pursuant to this Section 4.1 without any exclusions or defenses. Nothing in this Section 4.1 shall require a Lender to disclose any confidential information (including, without limitation, its tax returns) or detail the basis of its calculation of the amount of any net tax benefit or any other amount to the Borrowers or any other party.

(h) If the Borrowers are required to pay additional amounts to any Lender or the Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) changing the jurisdiction of its lending office so as to eliminate any such additional payment by the Borrowers which may thereafter accrue, if such change in the reasonable judgment of such Lender is not otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

4.2 Illegality.

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

(b) If a Lender determines that it is unlawful to maintain any LIBOR Rate Loan, the Borrowers shall, upon receipt of notice of such fact and demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Agent), prepay in full such LIBOR Rate Loans of that Lender then outstanding, together with interest accrued thereon and amounts required under Section 4.4, either on the last day of the Interest Period thereof, if that Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if that Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Rate Loans. If the Borrowers are required to so prepay any LIBOR Rate Loans, then concurrently with such prepayment, the Borrowers shall borrow from the affected Lender, in the amount of such repayment, a Base Rate Loan.

4.3 Increased Costs and Reduction of Return.

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

(b) If any Lender shall have determined that (i) the introduction of any Capital Adequacy Regulation, (ii) any change in any Capital Adequacy Regulation, (iii) any change in the interpretation or administration of any Capital Adequacy Regulation by any central bank or other Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or (iv) compliance by such Lender or any corporation or other entity controlling such Lender with any Capital Adequacy Regulation affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or any corporation or other entity controlling such Lender and (taking into consideration such Lender's or such corporation's or other entity's policies

with respect to capital adequacy and such Lender's desired return on capital) determines that the amount of such capital is increased as a consequence of its loans, credits or obligations under this Agreement, then so long as such Lender is as a policy generally charging customers similarly situated therefor, upon demand of such Lender to any Borrower through the Agent, the Borrowers shall pay to such Lender, from time to time as specified by such Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such increase.

4.4 Funding Losses. The Borrowers shall reimburse each Lender and hold each Lender harmless from any loss or expense described below in this Section 4.4, which such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of:

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

(b) the failure of any Borrower to continue or convert a portion of the Term Loan after the Borrowers have given (or is deemed to have given) a Notice of Conversion; or

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

including any such loss of anticipated profit to the end of the then current or expected Interest Period and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain its LIBOR Rate Loans or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. Borrowers shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by any Lender in connection with the foregoing.

4.5 Inability to Determine Rates. If the Agent determines that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the LIBOR Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBOR Rate Loan, or that the LIBOR Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBOR Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of funding such LIBOR Rate Loan, the Agent will promptly so notify the Parent and each Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans hereunder shall be suspended until the Agent revokes such notice in writing. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrowers may revoke any Notice of Conversion then submitted by them. If the Borrowers do not revoke such Notice of Conversion, the Lenders shall convert or continue that portion of the Term Loan that is the subject of such Notice of Conversion, as proposed by the Borrowers, in the amount specified in the applicable notice submitted by the Borrowers, but such portion of the Term Loan shall be maintained as a Base Rate Loan instead of a LIBOR Rate Loan.

4.6 Certificates of Lender. If any Lender claims reimbursement or compensation under this Article 4, such Lender shall determine the amount thereof and shall deliver to the Parent a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the amount payable, and such certificate shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers in the absence of manifest error.

4.7 Registration of Term Notes. The Borrowers hereby acknowledge and make the Term Notes a registered obligation for United States withholding tax purposes. The Parent shall be the registrar for the Notes (the "Registrar") with full power of substitution. In the event the Registrar becomes unable or unwilling to act as registrar under this Agreement, the Parent shall reasonably designate a successor Registrar. The Registrar shall keep at its principal executive office (or an office or agency designated by it by notice to the last registered Lender) a ledger, in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, but at its expense, it shall provide for the registration and transfer of the Term Notes. No sale, transfer, hypothecation, participation or assignment of any Term Note or any interest therein shall be effective for any purpose until it shall be registered on the books of the Registrar to be maintained for such purpose. The Registrar shall record the transfer of the Notes on the books maintained for this purpose upon receipt by the Registrar at the office or agency designated by the Registrar of a copy of the relevant Assignment and Acceptance. The Registrar shall be responsible for the costs and expenses related thereto.

4.8 Survival. The agreements and obligations of the Borrowers in this Article 4 shall survive the payment of all other Obligations.

At the request of the Agent, Borrowers shall participate in a conference call with Agent and the Lenders on a monthly basis for purposes of describing and analyzing in reasonable detail all material trends, changes, and developments in each and all Financial Statements explaining any variances to the corresponding figures in the budgets and prior Fiscal Year financial statements previously delivered to Agent.

This Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party have been duly executed and delivered by each Borrower, and constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of such Borrower, enforceable against it in accordance with their respective terms (subject to the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratoriums or other similar loans affecting the rights and remedies of creditors generally). The execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement by each Borrower and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party do not and will not conflict with, or constitute a violation or breach of, or result in the imposition of any Lien upon the property of such Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, by reason of the terms of (a) any material mortgage, lease, indenture, contract, agreement or instrument to which such Borrower is a party or which is binding upon it, (b) any Requirement of Law applicable to such Borrower, or (c) the certificate or articles of incorporation or by-laws or the limited liability company or limited partnership agreement of any Borrower.

6.2 Validity and Priority of Security Interest. The provisions of this Agreement, the Mortgages, and the other Loan Documents create legal and valid Liens on all the Collateral in favor of the Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Agent and the Lenders, and following the filing of the applicable financing statements, the recordation of the Mortgages, and any other filings or registrations necessary to perfect the Agent's Lien in the Collateral, such Liens constitute perfected and continuing Liens on all the Collateral, having priority over all other Liens on the Collateral, except for those Liens identified in clauses (a), (c), (d), (e), (g), (h) and (i) of the definition of Permitted Liens or that consist of Liens identified in Section 7.18(c) and (e) or that are listed on Schedule 6.9 and that are superior to the Liens of Agent, or, in the case of the Lien in favor of the Revolver Agent or the Lien of any institution refinancing the Permitted Revolver Obligations (to the extent any such refinancing conforms with the definition of "Bank Claims" set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement), are subject to the provisions of Intercreditor Agreement, and are enforceable against the Borrowers and all third parties.

7.1 Taxes and Other Obligations. Each Borrower shall (a) file when due all tax returns and other reports which it is required to file; (b) pay, or provide for the payment, when due, of all taxes, fees, assessments and other governmental charges against it or upon its property, income and franchises, make all required withholding and other tax deposits, and establish adequate reserves for the payment of all such items, and provide to the Agent and the Lenders, upon request, satisfactory evidence of its timely compliance with the foregoing; and (c) pay when due all Debt owed by each of them and all material claims of materialmen, mechanics, carriers, warehousemen, landlords, processors and other like Persons, and all other indebtedness owed by it and perform and discharge in a timely manner all other obligations undertaken by it to the extent such Debt and such claims would otherwise exceed $5,000,000 in the aggregate for all Borrowers; provided, however, so long as the Parent has notified the Agent in writing, neither the Parent nor any of the other domestic Subsidiaries need pay any tax, fee, assessment, or governmental charge (i) it is contesting in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently pursued, (ii) as to which the Parent or any other domestic Subsidiary, as the case may be, has established proper reserves as required under GAAP, and (iii) the nonpayment of which does not result in the imposition of a Lien (other than a Permitted Lien).

7.2 Legal Existence and Good Standing. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.9, each Borrower shall maintain its legal existence and its qualification and good standing in all jurisdictions in which the failure to maintain such existence and qualification or good standing could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; provided, however, that provided no Default or Event of Default then exists and provided there is no significant increase in the respective assets owned by each of R & B and M M & E subsequent to the Closing Date and so long as any assets of R & B and M M & E that constitute Collateral continue to be subject to a security interest having the priority specified herein and in the Intercreditor Agreement, Borrowers may terminate the operations R & B or M M & E, or both, dissolve that entity or entities and distribute the proceeds in accordance with applicable provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement to Agent for the benefit of Lenders and to the Revolver Agent.

7.3 Compliance with Law and Agreements; Maintenance of Licenses. Each Borrower shall comply in all material respects with all Requirements of Law of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over it or its business (including the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act and all Environmental Laws (in the case of Environmental Laws, to the extent set forth in the Mortgages)). Each Borrower shall obtain and maintain all patents, trademarks, licenses, permits, franchises, and

governmental authorizations necessary to own its property and to conduct its business as conducted on the Closing Date or as otherwise permitted under Section 7.17. No Borrower shall modify, amend or alter its certificate or articles of incorporation, or its limited liability company operating agreement or limited partnership agreement, as applicable, other than in a manner which does not adversely affect the rights of the Lenders or the Agent.

7.4 Maintenance of Property; Inspection of Property.

(a) Each Borrower shall maintain all of its property necessary and useful in the conduct of its business, in good operating condition and repair, ordinary wear and tear excepted, including specifically without limitation all patents, trademarks, licenses and other intellectual property.

(b) Each Borrower shall permit representatives and independent contractors of the Agent (at the expense of the Borrowers provided such expenses are reasonable under the circumstances to visit up to four times annually), inspect, and appraise any of its properties, to examine its corporate, financial and operating records, and make copies thereof or abstracts therefrom and to discuss its affairs, finances and accounts with its directors, officers and independent public accountants, at such reasonable times during normal business hours and as soon as may be reasonably desired, upon reasonable advance notice to the Parent; provided, however, when an Event of Default exists, the Agent or any Lender may do any of the foregoing on any number of occasions at the expense of the Borrowers at any time during normal business hours and without advance notice.

Without limiting the foregoing, in the event that any improved Real Estate covered by the Mortgages is determined to be located within an area that has been identified by the Director of the Federal Emergency Management Agency as a Special Flood Hazard Area ("SFHA"), the Borrower that holds title to such Real Estate shall purchase and maintain flood insurance on the improved Real Estate and any Equipment and Inventory located on such Real Estate. The amount of said flood insurance will be reasonably determined by the Agent, and shall, at a minimum, comply with applicable federal regulations as required by the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended. Each Borrower shall also maintain flood insurance for its Inventory and Equipment which is, at any time, located in a SFHA.

(b) The Borrowers shall cause the Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Agent and the Lenders, to be named as secured party or mortgagee and loss payee or additional insured, in a manner acceptable to the Agent and consistent with the Intercreditor Agreement. Each policy of insurance shall contain a clause or endorsement requiring the insurer to give not less than thirty (30) days' prior written notice to the Agent in the event of cancellation of the policy for any reason whatsoever and shall contain such other terms and conditions as Agent shall require. All premiums for such insurance shall be paid by the applicable Borrower when due, and certificates of insurance and, if requested by the Agent or any Lender, photocopies of the policies, shall be delivered to the Agent, in each case in sufficient quantity for distribution by the Agent to each of

the Lenders. If any Borrower fails to procure such insurance or to pay the premiums therefor when due, the Agent may, at the Borrowers' expense, do so.

Subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement and the Mortgages, the Agent hereby is authorized to collect all insurance and condemnation proceeds in respect of Collateral directly and after deducting from such proceeds the reasonable expenses, if any, incurred by the Agent in the collection or handling thereof, the Agent shall apply such proceeds, ratably, to the reduction of the Obligations as provided for in Section 3.1(b).

book value of the assets so sold is less than $15,000,000 in the aggregate in any Fiscal Year or the transaction is listed and described on Schedule 7.19 hereto, (c) in the case of the transactions listed on Schedule 7.19, the transaction is completed in a manner consistent with the description on Schedule 7.19, and (d) the Net Cash Proceeds realized as a result of such sale and leaseback transaction have been tendered to the Lenders as a mandatory prepayment of the Term Loans in accordance with Section 3.1(b); provided, however, that none of the Borrowers shall enter into any sale and leaseback transaction (except Sale and Leaseback Transactions (as currently defined in the Indenture) permitted by clauses (1) through (4) of Section 1009 of the Indenture) if the Attributable Debt (as currently defined in the Indenture) in respect of such sale and leaseback transaction exceeds an amount equal to (i) $125,000,000, minus (ii) the sum of (A) the aggregate amount of Debt (as currently defined in the Indenture) owed at such time by Parent and its domestic Subsidiaries and secured by Restricted Collateral (other than Debt described in clause (iii) below and Debt under the Loan Documents) plus (B) the aggregate amount of Attributable Debt (as currently defined in the Indenture) of Parent and its domestic Subsidiaries existing at such time (except for Sale and Leaseback Transactions (as currently defined in the Indenture) permitted by clauses (1) through (4) of Section 1009 of the Indenture), minus (iii) the amount of Debt (as currently defined in the Indenture) in respect of the Obligations at such time after taking into account any repayment thereof from the Net Cash Proceeds of such sale and leaseback transaction, and Parent has delivered to Agent a certificate executed by a Responsible Officer of the Parent certifying as to such calculation. For avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that the provisions of this Section 7.19 are designed to restrict and control Borrowers' rights with respect to sale and leaseback or similar transactions, not the execution and delivery of non-capitalized operating leases.

7.20 New Subsidiaries. The Parent shall not, directly or indirectly, organize, create, acquire or permit to exist any domestic Subsidiary other than those listed on Schedule 6.5 or unless the value of any such Subsidiary's assets at the greater of fair market value or net tangible book value (a) is less than $1,000,000, and (b) together with the value of the assets of all Subsidiaries that are not Borrowers (other than Factory Power) at the greater of fair market value or net tangible book value is less than $2,000,000.

If Borrowers timely deliver such quarterly Financial Statements and the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio reflected therein is at least .75 to 1.00 and

thereafter Borrowers continuously maintain daily Availability (as such term is defined and determined in accordance with the Revolving Credit Agreement) of at least $25,000,000 from December 31, 2001 through the date the Financial Statements for the period ending March 31, 2002 are delivered to Agent, no Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred.

(a) If an Event of Default exists, the Agent may, or shall at the direction of the Majority Lenders, at any time, without notice to or demand on the Borrowers: (A) declare the Term Loan and/or any other of the Obligations to be immediately due and payable; provided, however, that upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Sections 9.1(e), 9.1(f), 9.1(g), or 9.1(h), the Term Loan and all other Obligations shall automatically become immediately due and payable without notice or demand of any kind, and (B) pursue its other rights and remedies under the Loan Documents and applicable law.

(b) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing: (i) the Agent shall have for the benefit of the Lenders, in addition to all other rights of the Agent and the Lenders, the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Loan Documents and the UCC; (ii) the Agent may, at any time, take possession of the Collateral and keep it on any Borrower's premises, at no cost to the Agent or any Lender, or remove any part of it to such other place or places as the Agent may desire, or the Borrowers shall, upon the Agent's demand, at the Borrowers' cost, assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Agent at a place reasonably convenient to the Agent; and (iii) the Agent may sell and deliver any Collateral at public or private sales, for cash, upon credit or otherwise, at such prices and upon such terms as the Agent deems advisable, in its sole discretion, and may, if the Agent deems it reasonable, postpone or adjourn any sale of the Collateral by an announcement at the time and place of sale or of such postponed or adjourned sale without giving a new notice of sale. Without in any way requiring notice to be given in the following manner, each Borrower agrees that any notice by the Agent of sale, disposition or other intended action hereunder or in connection herewith, whether required by the UCC or otherwise, shall constitute reasonable notice to each Borrower if such notice is mailed by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or is delivered personally against receipt, at least ten (10) Business Days prior to such action to each Borrower's address specified in or pursuant to Section 13.8. If any Collateral is sold on terms other than payment in full at the time

of sale, no credit shall be given against the Obligations until the Agent or the Lenders receive payment, and if the buyer defaults in payment, the Agent may resell the Collateral without further notice to any Borrower. In the event the Agent seeks to take possession of all or any portion of the Collateral by judicial process, each Borrower irrevocably waives to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law: (A) the posting of any bond, surety or security with respect thereto which might otherwise be required; (B) any demand for possession prior to the commencement of any suit or action to recover the Collateral; and (C) any requirement that the Agent retain possession and not dispose of any Collateral until after trial or final judgment. Each Borrower agrees that the Agent has no obligation to preserve rights to the Collateral or marshal any Collateral for the benefit of any Person.

The proceeds of sale shall be applied first to all expenses of sale, including reasonable attorneys' fees, and then to the Obligations. The Agent will return any excess to the Borrowers and the Borrowers shall remain liable for any deficiency.

(c) If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, each Borrower hereby waives all rights to notice and hearing prior to the exercise by the Agent of the Agent's rights to repossess the Collateral without judicial process or to reply, attach or levy upon the Collateral without notice or hearing, except with respect to notices that are required as a matter of law and cannot be waived.

The Borrowers agree to promptly execute and deliver new promissory notes and replacement promissory notes as reasonably requested by the Agent to evidence assignments of the Term Loan in accordance herewith. In connection with any assignment hereunder, each Lender agrees to return to Parent any old Term Notes marked cancelled promptly upon the consummation of any assignment hereunder so long as such Lender has received a substitute Term Note evidencing its Pro Rata Share of the Term Loan, if any, after giving effect to the assignment.

(b) From and after the date that the Agent notifies the assignor Lender that it has received an executed Assignment and Acceptance and payment of the above-referenced processing fee, (i) the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender under the Loan Documents, and (ii) the assignor Lender shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto).

(c) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the assigning Lender thereunder and the Assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other Loan Document furnished pursuant hereto or the attachment, perfection, or priority of any Lien granted by the Borrowers to the Agent or any Lender in the Collateral; (ii) such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of the Borrowers or the performance or observance by the Borrowers of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document furnished pursuant hereto; (iii) such Assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such Assignee will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent, such assigning Lender or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (v) such Assignee appoints and authorizes the Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to the Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers, including the discretionary rights and incidental power, as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vi) such Assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender.

(d) Immediately upon satisfaction of the requirements of Section 11.2(a), this Agreement shall be deemed to be amended to the extent, but only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of the Assignee and the resulting adjustment of the respective Pro Rata Shares of the Term Loan arising therefrom. The portion of the Term Loan allocated to each Assignee shall reduce the Pro Rata Share of the Term Loan of the assigning Lender pro tanto.

(e) Any Lender may at any time sell to one or more commercial banks, financial institutions, or other Persons not Affiliates of any Borrower (a "Participant") participating interests in such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Term Loan and the other interests of that Lender (the "originating Lender") hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; provided, however, that (i) the

originating Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) the originating Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the Borrowers and the Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with the originating Lender in connection with the originating Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and (iv) no Lender shall transfer or grant any participating interest under which the Participant has rights to approve any amendment to, or any consent or waiver with respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document except the matters set forth in Section 11.1(a) (i), (ii) and (iii), and all amounts payable by the Borrowers hereunder shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation; except that, if amounts outstanding under this Agreement are due and unpaid, or shall have become due and payable upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of set-off in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement to the same extent and subject to the same limitation as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement.

(f) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, any Lender may at any time create a security interest in, or pledge, all or any portion of its rights under and interest in this Agreement in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Federal Reserve Board or U.S. Treasury Regulation 31 CFR §203.14, and such Federal Reserve Bank may enforce such pledge or security interest in any manner permitted under applicable law.

ARTICLE 12

THE AGENT

12.1 Appointment and Authorization. Each Lender hereby designates and appoints SVIM as its Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes the 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. The Agent agrees to act as such on the express conditions contained in this Article 12. The provisions of this Article 12 are solely for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders and no Borrower shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions contained in this Article 12 (except for the provisions of Section 12.10, 12.11(a), 12.11(b) and 12.18(d)). Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, the Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall the Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term "agent" in this Agreement with reference to the 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. Except as expressly otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Agent shall have and may use its sole discretion with respect to exercising or refraining from exercising any discretionary rights or taking or refraining from taking any actions which the Agent is expressly entitled to take or assert under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including the exercise of remedies pursuant to Section 9.2, and any action so taken or not taken shall be deemed consented to by the Lenders.

12.2 Delegation of Duties. The 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 concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Agent shall not be responsible

for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects as long as such selection was made without gross negligence or willful misconduct.

12.3 Liability of Agent. None of the Agent-Related Persons shall (i) 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 for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct), or (ii) be responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by the Parent or any other Borrower or Affiliate of the Parent, 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 the 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 for any failure of any Borrower or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Agent-Related Person shall 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 the Parent or any of the Parent's Subsidiaries or Affiliates.

12.4 Reliance by Agent. The Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, 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 the Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Agent. The 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 Majority Lenders as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The 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 Majority Lenders (or all Lenders if so required by Section 11.1) and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of the Lenders.

12.5 Notice of Default. The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, unless the Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or the Parent referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a "notice of default." The Agent will notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice. The Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be requested by the Majority Lenders in accordance with Section 9; provided, however, that unless and until the Agent has received any such request, the 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.

12.6 Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that none of the Agent-Related Persons has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by the Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Parent and its Affiliates, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent-Related Person to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person 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 Parent and its Affiliates, and all applicable bank regulatory laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to the Borrowers. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without

reliance upon any Agent-Related Person 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 the Borrowers. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly herein required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Agent, the 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 and other condition or creditworthiness of the Borrowers which may come into the possession of any of the Agent-Related Persons.

12.7 Indemnification. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Lenders shall indemnify upon demand the Agent-Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of the Borrowers and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so), in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares, from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities as such term is defined in Section 13.11; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to the Agent-Related Persons of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities resulting solely from such Person's gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse the Agent upon demand for its Pro Rata Share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including Attorney Costs) incurred by the 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 the Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Borrowers. The undertaking in this Section shall survive the payment of all Obligations hereunder and the resignation or replacement of the Agent.

12.8 Agent in Individual Capacity. SVIM 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 Parent and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates as though SVIM were not the Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of the Lenders. SVIM or its Affiliates may receive information regarding the Parent, each Borrower, their Affiliates and Account Debtors (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of the Parent, or such Borrower, or such Subsidiary) and acknowledge that the Agent and SVIM shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them.

12.9 Successor Agent. The Agent may resign as Agent upon at least 30 days' prior notice to the Lenders and the Parent, such resignation to be effective upon the acceptance of a successor agent to its appointment as Agent. In the event SVBF and SVBFII sells all of its Pro Rata Share of the Term Loan as part of a sale, transfer or other disposition by SVBF and SVBFII of substantially all of its loan portfolio, SVIM shall resign as Agent and such purchaser or transferee shall become the successor Agent hereunder. Subject to the foregoing, if the Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Majority Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders in consultation with the Borrowers (which shall not be binding) a successor agent for the Lenders. If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of the Agent, the Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders and the Parent, 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 Agent and the term "Agent" shall mean such successor agent and the retiring Agent's appointment, powers and duties as Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Agent's resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Article 12 shall continue to inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement.

12.10 Withholding Tax.

(a) If any Lender is a "foreign corporation, partnership or trust" within the meaning of the Code and such Lender claims exemption from, or a reduction of, U.S. withholding tax under Sections 1441 or 1442 of the Code, such Lender agrees with and in favor of the Agent, to deliver to the Agent:

(i) if such Lender claims an exemption from, or a reduction of, withholding tax under a United States of America tax treaty, properly completed IRS Forms W-8BEN and W-8ECI before the payment of any interest in the first calendar year and before the payment of any interest in each third succeeding calendar year during which interest may be paid under this Agreement;

(ii) if such Lender claims that interest paid under this Agreement is exempt from United States of America withholding tax because it is effectively connected with a United States of America trade or business of such Lender, two properly completed and executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI before the payment of any interest is due in the first taxable year of such Lender and in each succeeding taxable year of such Lender during which interest may be paid under this Agreement, and IRS Form W-9; and

(iii) such other form or forms as may be required under the Code or other laws of the United States of America as a condition to exemption from, or reduction of, United States of America withholding tax.

Such Lender agrees to promptly notify the Agent of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction.

(b) If any Lender claims exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax under a United States of America tax treaty by providing IRS Form FW-8BEN and such Lender sells, assigns, grants a participation in, or otherwise transfers all or part of the Obligations owing to such Lender, such Lender agrees to notify the Agent of the percentage amount in which it is no longer the beneficial owner of Obligations of the Borrowers to such Lender. To the extent of such percentage amount, the Agent will treat such Lender's IRS Form W-8BEN as no longer valid.

(c) If any Lender claiming exemption from United States of America withholding tax by filing IRS Form W-8ECI with the Agent sells, assigns, grants a participation in, or otherwise transfers all or part of the Obligations owing to such Lender, such Lender agrees to undertake sole responsibility for complying with the withholding tax requirements imposed by Sections 1441 and 1442 of the Code.

(d) If any Lender is entitled to a reduction in the applicable withholding tax, the Agent may withhold from any interest payment to such Lender an amount equivalent to the applicable withholding tax after taking into account such reduction. If the forms or other documentation required by subsection (a) of this Section are not delivered to the Agent, then the Agent may withhold from any interest payment to such Lender not providing such forms or other documentation an amount equivalent to the applicable withholding tax.

(e) If the IRS or any other Governmental Authority of the United States of America or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender (because the appropriate form was not delivered, was not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Agent of a change in circumstances which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective, or for any other reason) such Lender shall indemnify the Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Agent as tax or otherwise, including penalties and interest, and including any taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on the amounts payable to the Agent under this Section, together with all costs

and expenses (including Attorney Costs). The obligation of the Lenders under this subsection shall survive the payment of all Obligations and the resignation or replacement of the Agent.

12.11 Collateral Matters.

(a) The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Agent, at its option and in its sole discretion, to release any Agent's Liens upon any Collateral (i) upon the termination of this Agreement and payment and satisfaction in full in immediately available funds by Borrowers of the Term Loan and all other non-contingent Obligations then due and payable; (ii) constituting property being sold or disposed of if Parent certifies to the Agent that the sale or disposition is made in compliance with Section 7.9 (and the Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry); (iii) constituting property in which the Borrowers owned no interest at the time the Lien was granted or at any time thereafter; or (iv) constituting property leased to any Borrower under a lease which has expired or been terminated in a transaction permitted under this Agreement. Except as provided above, the Agent will not release any of the Agent's Liens without the prior written authorization of the Lenders; provided that the Agent may, in its discretion, release the Agent's Liens on Collateral valued in the aggregate not in excess of $1,000,000 during each Fiscal Year without the prior written authorization of the Lenders and the Agent may release the Agent's Liens on Collateral valued in the aggregate not in excess of $5,000,000 during each Fiscal Year with the prior written authorization of Majority Lenders. Upon request by the Agent or the Borrowers at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Agent's authority to release any Agent's Liens upon particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 12.11.

(b) Upon receipt by the Agent of any authorization required pursuant to Section 12.11(a) from the Lenders (or the Majority Lenders, if applicable) of the Agent's authority to release Agent's Liens upon particular types or items of Collateral, and upon at least five (5) Business Days (or such shorter period to which Agent may agree) prior written request by the Borrowers, the Agent shall (and is hereby irrevocably authorized by the Lenders to) execute such documents as may be necessary to evidence the release of the Agent's Liens upon such Collateral; provided, however, that (i) the Agent shall not be required to execute any such document on terms which, in the Agent's reasonable opinion, would expose the Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Liens without recourse or warranty, and (ii) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Obligations or any Liens (other than those expressly being released) upon (or obligations of the Borrowers in respect of) all interests retained by the Borrowers, including the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral.

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

12.12 Restrictions on Actions by Lenders; Sharing of Payments.

(a) Each of the Lenders agrees that it shall not, without the express consent of all Lenders, and that it shall, to the extent it is lawfully entitled to do so, upon the request of all Lenders, set

off against the Obligations, any amounts owing by such Lender to the Borrowers or any accounts of any Borrower now or hereafter maintained with such Lender. Each of the Lenders further agrees that it shall not, unless specifically requested to do so by the Agent, take or cause to be taken any action to enforce its rights under this Agreement or against the Borrowers, including the commencement of any legal or equitable proceedings, to foreclose any Lien on, or otherwise enforce any security interest in, any of the Collateral.

(b) If at any time or times any Lender shall receive (i) by payment, foreclosure, setoff or otherwise, any proceeds of Collateral or any payments with respect to the Obligations of the Borrowers to such Lender arising under, or relating to, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, except for any such proceeds or payments received by such Lender from the Agent pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, or (ii) payments from the Agent in excess of such Lender's ratable portion of all such distributions by the Agent, such Lender shall promptly (1) turn the same over to the Agent, in kind, and with such endorsements as may be required to negotiate the same to the Agent, or in same day funds, as applicable, for the account of all of the Lenders and for application to the Obligations in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement, or (2) purchase, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in the Obligations owed to the other Lenders so that such excess payment received shall be applied ratably as among the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares; provided, however, that if all or part of such excess payment received by the purchasing party is thereafter recovered from it, those purchases of participations shall be rescinded in whole or in part, as applicable, and the applicable portion of the purchase price paid therefor shall be returned to such purchasing party, but without interest except to the extent that such purchasing party is required to pay interest in connection with the recovery of the excess payment.

12.13 Agency for Perfection. Agent and each Lender hereby appoints each other Lender as agent for the purpose of perfecting the Agent's Liens in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC can be perfected only by possession. Should any Lender (other than the Agent) obtain possession of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify the Agent thereof, and, promptly upon the Agent's request therefor shall deliver such Collateral to the Agent or in accordance with the Agent's instructions.

12.14 Concerning the Collateral and the Related Loan Documents. Each Lender authorizes and directs the Agent to enter into the other Loan Documents, for the ratable benefit and obligation of the Agent and the Lenders. Each Lender agrees that any action taken by the Agent or Majority Lenders, as applicable, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, and the exercise by the Agent or the Majority Lenders, as applicable, of their respective powers set forth therein or herein, together with such other powers that are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be binding upon all of the Lenders. The Lenders acknowledge that the Term Loan and all interest, fees and expenses hereunder constitute one Debt, secured pari passu by all of the Collateral.

12.15 Field Audit and Examination Reports; Disclaimer by Lenders. By signing this Agreement, each Lender:

(a) is deemed to have requested that the Agent furnish such Lender, promptly after it becomes available, a copy of each field audit or examination report (each a "Report" and collectively, "Reports") prepared by or on behalf of the Agent;

(b) expressly agrees and acknowledges that neither SVIM nor the Agent (i) makes any representation or warranty as to the accuracy of any Report, or (ii) shall be liable for any information contained in any Report;

(c) expressly agrees and acknowledges that the Reports are not comprehensive audits or examinations, that the Agent or SVIM or other party performing any audit or examination will

inspect only specific information regarding the Borrowers and will rely significantly upon the Borrowers' books and records, as well as on representations of each Borrower's personnel;

(d) agrees to keep all Reports confidential and strictly for its internal use, and not to distribute except to its participants, or use any Report in any other manner; and

(e) without limiting the generality of any other indemnification provision contained in this Agreement, agrees: (i) to hold the Agent and any such other Lender preparing a Report harmless from any action the indemnifying Lender may take or conclusion the indemnifying Lender may reach or draw from any Report in connection with any loans or other credit accommodations that the indemnifying Lender has made or may make to the Borrowers, or the indemnifying Lender's participation in, or the indemnifying Lender's purchase of, a loan or loans of the Borrowers; and (ii) to pay and protect, and indemnify, defend and hold the Agent and any such other Lender preparing a Report harmless from and against, the claims, actions, proceedings, damages, costs, expenses and other amounts (including Attorney Costs) incurred by the Agent and any such other Lender preparing a Report as the direct or indirect result of any third parties who might obtain all or part of any Report through the indemnifying Lender.

12.16 Relation Among Lenders. The Lenders are not partners or co-venturers, and no Lender shall be liable for the acts or omissions of, or (except as otherwise set forth herein in case of the Agent) authorized to act for, any other Lender.

12.17 Co-Agents. None of the Lenders identified on the facing page or signature pages of this Agreement as a "co-agent" shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Lenders so identified as a "co-agent" shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any of the Lenders so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder.

ARTICLE 13

MISCELLANEOUS

13.1 No Waivers; Cumulative Remedies. No failure by the Agent or any Lender to exercise any right, remedy, or option under this Agreement or any present or future supplement thereto, or in any other agreement between or among the Borrowers and the Agent and/or any Lender, or delay by the Agent or any Lender in exercising the same, will operate as a waiver thereof. No waiver by the Agent or any Lender will be effective unless it is in writing, and then only to the extent specifically stated. No waiver by the Agent or the Lenders on any occasion shall affect or diminish the Agent's and each Lender's rights thereafter to require strict performance by the Borrowers of any provision of this Agreement. The Agent and the Lenders may proceed directly to collect the Obligations without any prior recourse to the Collateral. The Agent's and each Lender's rights under this Agreement will be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right or remedy which the Agent or any Lender may have.

13.2 Severability. The illegality or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement or any Loan Document or any instrument or agreement required hereunder shall not in any way affect or impair the legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement or any instrument or agreement required hereunder.

The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the United States Arbitration Act (Title 9, U.S. Code), notwithstanding any choice of law provision in this Agreement, and under the Commercial Rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"). The arbitrator(s) shall give effect to statutes of limitation in determining any claim. Any controversy concerning whether an issue is arbitrable shall be determined by the arbitrator(s). Judgment upon the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The institution and maintenance of an action for judicial relief or pursuant to a provisional or ancillary remedy shall not constitute a waiver of the right of either party, including the plaintiff, to submit the controversy or claim to arbitration if any other party contests such action for judicial relief.

(e) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 13.3(d) above, no controversy or claim shall be submitted to arbitration without the consent of all parties if, at the time of the proposed submission, such controversy or claim arises from or related to an obligation to the Lenders which is secured by real estate property collateral (exclusive of real estate space lease assignments).

(g) No provision of Sections 13.3(d) through (g) shall limit the right of the Agent or the Lenders to exercise self-help remedies such as setoff, foreclosure against or sale of any real or personal property collateral or security, or obtaining provisional or ancillary remedies from a court of competent jurisdiction before, after, or during the pendency of any arbitration or other proceeding. The exercise of a remedy does not waive the right of either party to resort to arbitration or reference.

13.10 Binding Effect.

13.15 Captions. The captions contained in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only, are without substantive meaning and should not be construed to modify, enlarge, or restrict any provision.

13.16 Right of Setoff. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, if an Event of Default exists or the Term Loan has been accelerated, each Lender is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to the Borrowers, any such notice being waived by the Borrowers to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held by, and other indebtedness at any time owing by, such Lender or any Affiliate of such Lender to or for the credit or the account of the Borrowers against any and all Obligations owing to such Lender, now or hereafter existing, irrespective of whether or not the Agent or such Lender shall have made demand under this Agreement or any Loan Document and although such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrowers and the Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, NO LENDER SHALL EXERCISE ANY RIGHT OF SET-OFF, BANKER'S LIEN, OR THE LIKE AGAINST ANY DEPOSIT ACCOUNT OR PROPERTY OF ANY BORROWER HELD OR MAINTAINED BY SUCH LENDER WITHOUT THE PRIOR WRITTEN UNANIMOUS CONSENT OF THE LENDERS.

13.17 Confidentiality.

(a) Each Borrower severally hereby consents that the Agent and each Lender may issue and disseminate to the public general information describing the credit accommodation entered into pursuant to this Agreement, including the name and address of the Borrowers and a general description of the Borrowers' business and may use each Borrower's name in advertising and other promotional material.

(b) Subject to the provisions of the following sentence, each Lender severally agrees to take normal and reasonable precautions and exercise due care to maintain the confidentiality of all information identified as "confidential" or "secret" by each Borrower and provided to the Agent or such Lender by or on behalf of such Borrower, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except to the extent that such information (i) was or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of disclosure by the Agent or such Lender, or (ii) was or becomes available on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrowers, provided that such source is not bound by a confidentiality agreement with the Borrowers known to the Agent or such Lender; provided, however, that the Agent and any Lender may disclose such information (1) at the request or pursuant to any requirement of any Governmental Authority to which the Agent or such Lender is subject or in connection with an examination of the Agent or such Lender by any such Governmental Authority; (2) pursuant to subpoena or other court process; (3) when required to do so in accordance with the provisions of any applicable Requirement of Law; (4) to the extent reasonably required in connection with any litigation or proceeding (including, but not limited to, any bankruptcy proceeding) to which the Agent, any Lender or their respective Affiliates may be party; (5) to the extent reasonably required in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document; (6) to the Agent's or such Lender's independent auditors, accountants, attorneys and other professional advisors; (7) to any prospective Participant or Assignee under any Assignment and Acceptance, actual or potential, provided that such prospective Participant or Assignee agrees to keep such information confidential to the same extent required of the Agent and the Lenders hereunder; (8) as expressly permitted under the

terms of any other document or agreement regarding confidentiality to which the Borrowers are party or are deemed party with the Agent or such Lender, and (9) to its Affiliates. In the event the Agent or any Lender or any person to whom the Agent or any Lender transmits confidential information in accordance with this Section 13.17 becomes legally compelled to disclose such information, the Agent, applicable Lender or Person shall, unless legally constrained against doing so, use reasonable efforts (but shall have no liability for a failure to do so) to provide Borrowers with prompt notice thereof so that Borrowers may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy to prevent any such disclosure.

13.18 Conflicts with Other Loan Documents. Unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement (or in another Loan Document by specific reference to the applicable provision contained in this Agreement), if any provision contained in this Agreement conflicts with any provision of any other Loan Document, the provision contained in this Agreement shall govern and control.

13.19 Joint and Several Liability. The Borrowers shall be liable for all amounts due to the Agent and/or any Lender under this Agreement, regardless of which Borrower actually receives the proceeds of the Term Loan or other extensions of credit hereunder or the amount of such Term Loan received or the manner in which the Agent and/or such Lender accounts for such Loans or other extensions of credit on its books and records. Each Borrower's Obligations with respect to the Term Loan made to it, and each Borrower's Obligations arising as a result of the joint and several liability of the Borrowers hereunder, with respect to the Term Loan made to the other Borrowers hereunder, shall be separate and distinct obligations, but all such Obligations shall be primary obligations of each Borrower.

Each Borrower's Obligations arising as a result of the joint and several liability of such Borrower hereunder with respect to the Term Loan or other extensions of credit made to the other Borrowers hereunder shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be unconditional irrespective of (i) the validity or enforceability, avoidance or subordination of the Obligations of the other Borrowers or of any promissory note or other document evidencing all or any part of the Obligations of the other Borrowers, (ii) the absence of any attempt to collect the Obligations from the other Borrowers, any other guarantor, or any other security therefor, or the absence of any other action to enforce the same, (iii) the waiver, consent, extension, forbearance or granting of any indulgence by the Agent and/or any Lender with respect to any provision of any instrument evidencing the Obligations of the other Borrowers, or any part thereof, or any other agreement now or hereafter executed by the other Borrowers and delivered to the Agent and/or any Lender, (iv) the failure by the Agent and/or any Lender to take any steps to perfect and maintain its security interest in, or to preserve its rights to, any security or Collateral for the Obligations of the other Borrowers, (v) the Agent's and/or any Lender's election, in any proceeding instituted under the Bankruptcy Code, of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, (vi) any borrowing or grant of a security interest by the other Borrowers, as debtors-in-possession under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code, (vii) the disallowance of all or any portion of the Agent's and/or any Lender's claim(s) for the repayment of the Obligations of the other Borrowers under Section 502 of the Bankruptcy code, or (viii) any other circumstances which might constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor or of the other Borrowers. With respect to each Borrower's Obligations arising as a result of the joint and several liability of the Borrowers hereunder with respect to the Term Loan or other extensions of credit made to any of the other Borrowers hereunder, each Borrower waives, until the non-contingent monetary Obligations shall have been paid in full in immediately available funds and the Agreement shall have been terminated, any right to enforce any right of subrogation or any remedy which the Agent and/or any Lender now has or may hereafter have against such Borrower, any endorser or any guarantor of all or any part of the Obligations, and any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security or collateral given to the Agent and/or any Lender to secure payment of the Obligations or any other liability of the Borrowers to the Agent and/or any Lender.

Upon and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Agent may proceed directly and at once, without notice, against any Borrower to collect and recover the full amount, or any portion of the Obligations, without first proceeding against any other Borrower or any other Person, or against any security or collateral for the Obligations. Each Borrower consents and agrees that the Agent shall be under no obligation to marshal any assets in favor of such Borrower or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations.

13.20 Contribution and Indemnification among the Borrowers. Each Borrower is obligated to repay the Obligations as joint and several obligors under this Agreement. To the extent that any Borrower shall, under this Agreement as a joint and several obligor, repay any of the Obligations constituting the Term Loan made to another Borrower hereunder or other Obligations incurred directly and primarily by any other Borrower (an "Accommodation Payment"), then the Borrower making such Accommodation Payment shall be entitled to contribution and indemnification from, and be reimbursed by, each of the other Borrowers in an amount, for each of such other Borrowers, equal to a fraction of such Accommodation Payment, the numerator of which fraction is such other Borrower's "Allocable Amount" (as defined below) and the denominator of which is the sum of the Allocable Amounts of all of the Borrowers. As of any date of determination, the "Allocable Amount" of each Borrower shall be equal to the maximum amount of liability for Accommodation Payments which could be asserted against such Borrower hereunder without (i) rendering such Borrower "insolvent" within the meaning of Section 101(31) of the Bankruptcy Code Section of the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act (the "UFTA"), or Section 2 of the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act (the "UFCA"), (ii) leaving such Borrower with unreasonably small capital or assets, within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code, Section 4 of the UFTA, or Section 5 of the UFCA, or (iii) leaving such Borrower unable to pay its debts as they become due within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or Section 4 of the UFTA, or Section 5 of the UFCA. All rights and claims of contribution, indemnification and reimbursement under this Section shall be subordinate in right of payment to the prior payment in full of the Obligations. Each agreement, consent, warranty, representation or obligation of the Borrowers hereunder shall be deemed to be made or to have been made by the Borrowers on a joint and several basis. The provisions of this Section shall, to the extent expressly inconsistent with any provision in any Loan Documents, supersede such inconsistent provision.

13.21 Additional Rights or Contribution. Each Borrower hereby agrees that to the extent that any individual Borrower or entity obligated hereunder shall have paid an amount hereunder or pursuant to this Agreement which would, but for this provision, render such Borrower or entity insolvent for purposes of state or federal fraudulent conveyance laws, such Borrower shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Borrower hereunder to the extent such contribution would not render such other Borrower insolvent. The provisions of this Section 13.21 shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Borrower to Agent and Lenders and each Borrower shall remain liable to Agent and Lenders for the full amount of such Borrower's Obligations hereunder.

13.22 Agency of Parent for each other Borrower. Each of the other Borrowers appoints Parent as its agent for all purposes relevant to this Agreement, including (without limitation) the giving and receipt of notices and the execution and delivery of all documents, instruments and certificates contemplated herein and all modifications hereto. Any acknowledgment, consent, direction, certification or other action which might otherwise be valid or effective only if given or taken by all of the Borrowers acting singly, or jointly, or both shall be valid and effective if given or taken only by Parent, whether or not any of the other Borrowers joins therein.
