Extraordinary Receipts for general working capital purposes constituting up to
(A) $1,000,000 of New York State tax refunds and (B) up to $50,000 of all other
Extraordinary Receipts. Promptly upon the determination by any Borrower that any
obligation listed on Schedule 2.06 and designated to be paid out of proceeds of
the Loans in any notice of borrowing delivered pursuant to Section 2.02 shall
not be paid by such Borrower for any reason, such Borrower shall, unless the
Lenders otherwise agree to allow the Borrowers to use such Loan proceeds for
another purpose, forward cash in an amount equal to 100% of the amount of such

(c) Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on
a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next
succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be
included in the computation of payment of interest.
SECTION 2.06 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Loans shall be
---------------
available (and each of the Borrowers agrees that it shall use such proceeds)
solely (a) to pay certain past due obligations described on Schedule 2.06(a),
----------------
(b) to pay fees and expenses associated with the transactions contemplated by
the Loan Documents and other fees and
-22-
expenses described on Schedule 2.06(b), which Schedule also includes the past
----------------
due obligations described in Schedule 2.06(a), and (c) to the extent permitted
----------------
by the Lenders, for general working capital requirements of the Borrowers and
the Guarantors other than the payment of such past due obligations.
SECTION 2.07 Evidence of Indebtedness; Registered Notes.
------------------------------------------
(a) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual
practice an account or accounts evidencing the Indebtedness of the Borrowers to
such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts
of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time
hereunder.
(b) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to
paragraph (a) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and
----- -----
amounts of the obligations recorded therein and, absent manifest error, prima
facie evidence of the accuracy of the information recorded therein; provided
--------
that the failure of any Lender to maintain such accounts or any error therein
shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay the
Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
(c) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by
a promissory note. In such event, each of the Borrowers shall execute and
deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender
(or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) in
a form furnished by the Collateral Agent and reasonably acceptable to the
Borrowers. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest
thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 8.05)
be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the order
of the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a Registered Note, to
such payee and its registered assigns).
(d) Each of the Borrowers agrees to record on a register
maintained by it (the "Register") each Loan and each repayment of principal of
--------
and each payment of interest on each Loan. Each Loan recorded on the Register (a
Registered Loan") may, at the election of any Lender, be evidenced by a
---------------
promissory note (a "Registered Note"). Upon the registration of any Loan, any
---------------
promissory note (other than a Registered Note) evidencing the same shall be null
and void and shall be promptly returned to such Borrower. Each of the Borrowers
agrees at the request of any Lender, to execute and deliver to such Lender a
Registered Note to evidence such Registered Loan, payable to such Lender and
otherwise duly completed. Once recorded on the Register, the Loan or Loans
evidenced by such promissory note may not be removed from the Register so long
as it remains outstanding, and a Registered Note may not be exchanged for a
promissory note that is not a Registered Note. An assignment pursuant to Section
8.05(b) of a Registered Note may be effected only by the surrender of the
Registered Note by the Assignor to the Borrower issuing such Registered Note and
either the reissuance of the Registered Note to the assignee or by the issuance
of a new Registered Note to the assignee.
-23-
SECTION 2.08 Joint and Several Liability of Borrowers.
----------------------------------------
(a) Each of Borrowers, in consideration of the financial
accommodations to be provided by the Lenders under this Agreement, for the
mutual benefit, directly and indirectly, of each of Borrowers and in
consideration of the undertakings of the other Borrowers to accept joint and
several liability for the Obligations, jointly and severally, hereby irrevocably
and unconditionally accepts, not merely as a surety but also as a co-debtor,
joint and several liability with the other Borrowers, with respect to the
payment and performance of all of the Obligations (including, without
limitation, any Obligations arising under this Section 2.08), it being the
intention of the parties hereto that all the Obligations shall be the joint and
several obligations of each Borrower without preferences or distinction among
them.
(b) If and to the extent that any Borrower shall fail to make
any payment with respect to any of the Obligations as and when due or to perform
any of the Obligations in accordance with the terms thereof, then in each such
event the other Borrowers will make such payment with respect to, or perform,
such Obligation.
(c) The Obligations of each Borrower under the provisions of
this Section 2.08 constitute the absolute and unconditional, full recourse
Obligations of each Borrower enforceable against each such Borrower to the full
extent of its properties and assets, irrespective of the validity, regularity or
enforceability of this Agreement or any other circumstances whatsoever.
(d) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement,
each Borrower hereby waives notice of acceptance of its joint and several
liability, notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default after the
consummation of the Merger, notice of any demand for any payment under this
Agreement, notice of any action at any time taken or omitted by Lenders under or
in respect of any of the Obligations, any requirement of diligence or to
mitigate damages and, generally, to the extent permitted by applicable law, all
demands, notices and other formalities of every kind in connection with this
Agreement (except as otherwise provided in this Agreement). Each Borrower hereby
assents to, and waives notice of, any extension or postponement of the time for
the payment of any of the Obligations, the acceptance of any payment of any of
the Obligations, the acceptance of any partial payment thereon, any waiver,
consent or other action or acquiescence by Lenders at any time or times in
respect of any default by any Borrower in the performance or satisfaction of any
term, covenant, condition or provision of this Agreement, any and all other
indulgences whatsoever by Lenders in respect of any of the Obligations, and the
taking, addition, substitution or release, in whole or in part, at any time or
times, of any security for any of the Obligations or the addition, substitution
or release, in whole or in part, of any Borrower. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, each Borrower assents to any other action or delay
in acting or failure to act on the part of any Lender with respect to the
failure by any Borrower to comply with any of its respective Obligations,
including, without limitation, any failure strictly or diligently to assert any
right or to pursue any remedy or to comply fully with applicable laws or
regulations thereunder, which might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.08
afford grounds for terminating, discharging or relieving any Borrower, in whole
or in part, from any of its Obligations under this Section 2.08, it being the
intention of each Borrower that, so long as any of the Obligations hereunder
remain unsatisfied, the Obligations of such Borrower under this
-24-
Section 2.08 shall not be discharged except by performance and then only to the
extent of such performance. The Obligations of each Borrower under this Section
2.08 shall not be diminished or rendered unenforceable by any winding up,
reorganization, arrangement, liquidation, reconstruction or similar proceeding
with respect to any Borrower or any Lender. The joint and several liability of
the Borrowers hereunder shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding
any absorption, merger, amalgamation or any other change whatsoever in the name,
constitution or place of formation of any of the Borrowers or any Lender.
(e) The provisions of this Section 2.08 are made for the benefit of the
Lenders and their respective successors and assigns, and may be enforced by it
or them from time to time against any or all Borrowers as often as occasion
therefor may arise and without requirement on the part of any such Lender,
successor or assign first to marshal any of its or their claims or to exercise
any of its or their rights against any Borrower or to exhaust any remedies
available to it or them against any Borrower or to resort to any other source or
means of obtaining payment of any of the Obligations hereunder or to elect any
other remedy. The provisions of this Section 2.08 shall remain in effect until
all of the Obligations shall have been paid in full or otherwise fully
satisfied. If at any time, any payment, or any part thereof, made in respect of
any of the Obligations, is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned
by any Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower,
or otherwise, the provisions of this Section 2.08 will forthwith be reinstated
in effect, as though such payment had not been made.
(f) Each Borrower hereby agrees that, after the occurrence and during
the continuance of any Default or Event of Default, the payment of any amounts
due with respect to the indebtedness owing by any Borrower to any other Borrower
is hereby subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of the Obligations.
Each Borrower hereby agrees that after the occurrence and during the continuance
of any Default or Event of Default, such Borrower will not demand, xxx for or
otherwise attempt to collect any indebtedness of any other Borrower owing to
such Borrower until the Obligations shall have been paid in full in cash. If,
notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, such Borrower shall collect, enforce or
receive any amounts in respect of such indebtedness, such amounts shall be
collected, enforced and received by such Borrower as trustee for Lenders, and
such Borrower shall deliver any such amounts to Lenders for application to the
Obligations in accordance with Section 2.04(b).
(g) The Borrowers agree among themselves that, in connection with
payments made hereunder, each Borrower shall have contribution rights against
the other Borrowers as permitted under applicable law. Such contribution rights
shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the obligations of the
Borrowers under the Loan Documents and no Borrower shall exercise such rights of
contribution until all Obligations (other than any such obligations which by the
terms thereof are stated to survive termination of the Loan Documents) have been
paid in full and the Commitments terminated.
ARTICLE III - GUARANTY
SECTION 3.01 Guaranty of Payment. Subject to Section 3.07, each of the
-------------------
Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally guarantees to each
Lender the prompt payment of the Obligations in full when due (whether at stated
maturity, as a mandatory
-25-
prepayment, by acceleration or otherwise). This guaranty (the "Guaranty") is a
guaranty of payment and not of collection and is a continuing guaranty and shall
apply to all Obligations whenever arising.
SECTION 3.02 Obligations Unconditional. The obligations of the
-------------------------
Guarantors hereunder are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the value,
genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of any of the Loan
Documents, or any other agreement or instrument referred to therein, to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable law, irrespective of any other
circumstance whatsoever which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable
discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor. Each Guarantor agrees that this
Guaranty may be enforced by the Lenders without the necessity at any time of
resorting to or exhausting any other security or collateral and without the
necessity at any time of having recourse to the Registered Notes or any other of
the Loan Documents or any collateral, if any, hereafter securing the Obligations
or otherwise and each Guarantor hereby waives the right to require the Lenders
to proceed against any Borrower or any other Person (including a co-guarantor)
or to require the Lenders to pursue any other remedy or enforce any other right.
Each Guarantor further agrees that it shall have no right of subrogation,
indemnity, reimbursement or contribution against any Borrower or any other
Guarantor of the Obligations for amounts paid under this Guaranty until such
time as the Lenders have been paid in full, all Commitments under the Credit
Agreement have been terminated and no Person or Governmental Authority shall
have any right to request any return or reimbursement of funds from the Lenders
in connection with monies received under the Loan Documents. Each Guarantor
further agrees that nothing contained herein shall prevent any Lender from suing
on any Registered Notes or any of the other Loan Documents or the Collateral
Agent from foreclosing its security interest in or Lien on any collateral, if
any, securing the Obligations or from exercising any other rights available to
it under this Credit Agreement, the Registered Notes, any other of the Loan
Documents, or any other instrument of security, if any, and the exercise of any
of the aforesaid rights and the completion of any foreclosure proceedings shall
not constitute a discharge of any of any Guarantor's obligations hereunder; it
being the purpose and intent of each Guarantor that its obligations hereunder
shall be absolute, independent and unconditional under any and all
circumstances. Neither any Guarantor's obligations under this Guaranty nor any
remedy for the enforcement thereof shall be impaired, modified, changed or
released in any manner whatsoever by an impairment, modification, change,
release or limitation of the liability of any Borrower or by reason of the
bankruptcy or insolvency of any Borrower. Each Guarantor waives any and all
notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Obligations
and notice of or proof of reliance by the Collateral Agent or any Lender upon
this Guaranty or acceptance of this Guaranty. The Obligations, and any of them,
shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or
renewed, extended, amended or waived, in reliance upon this Guaranty. All
dealings between any of the Borrowers and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and
the Collateral Agent and the Lenders, on the other hand, likewise shall be
conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this
Guaranty. The Guarantors further agree to all rights of set-off as set forth in
Section 8.04.
SECTION 3.03 Modifications.
-------------
Each Guarantor agrees that (a) all or any part of the Collateral now
or hereafter held for the Obligations, if any, may be exchanged, compromised or
surrendered from time to
-26-
time; (b) the Lenders shall not have any obligation to protect, perfect, secure
or insure any such security interests, liens or encumbrances now or hereafter
held, if any, for the Obligations or the properties subject thereto; (c) the
time or place of payment of the Obligations may be changed or extended, in whole
or in part, to a time certain or otherwise, and may be renewed or accelerated,
in whole or in part; (d) any Borrower and any other party liable for payment
under the Loan Documents may be granted indulgences generally; (e) any of the
provisions of the Registered Notes or any of the other Loan Documents may be
modified, amended or waived; (f) any party (including any co-guarantor) liable
for the payment thereof may be granted indulgences or be released; and (g) any
deposit balance for the credit of any Borrower or any other party liable for the
payment of the Obligations or liable upon any security therefor may be released,
in whole or in part, at, before or after the stated, extended or accelerated
maturity of the Obligations, all without notice to or further assent by such
Guarantor, which shall remain bound thereon, notwithstanding any such exchange,
compromise, surrender, extension, renewal, acceleration, modification,
indulgence or release.
SECTION 3.04 Waiver of Rights. Each Guarantor expressly waives to the
----------------
fullest extent permitted by applicable law: (a) notice of acceptance of this
Guaranty by the lenders and of all extensions of credit to the Borrowers by the
Lenders; (b) presentment and demand for payment or performance of any of the
Obligations; (c) protest and notice of dishonor or of default (except as
specifically required in this Agreement) with respect to the Obligations or with
respect to any security therefor; (d) notice of the Lenders obtaining, amending,
substituting for, releasing, waiving or modifying any security interest, lien or
encumbrance, if any, hereafter securing the Obligations, or the Lenders'
subordinating, compromising, discharging or releasing such security interests,
liens or encumbrances, if any; (e) all other notices to which such Guarantor
might otherwise be entitled; and (f) demand for payment under this Guaranty.
SECTION 3.05 Reinstatement. The obligations of each Guarantor under
-------------
this Article III shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for
any reason any payment by or on behalf of any Person in respect of the
Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of
the Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or
reorganization or otherwise, and each Guarantor agrees that it will indemnify
each Lender promptly upon demand for all reasonable costs and expenses
(including, without limitation, reasonable fees of counsel) incurred by such
Lender in connection with such rescission or restoration, including any such
costs and expenses incurred in defending against any claim alleging that such
payment constituted a preference, fraudulent transfer or similar payment under
any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law. Upon the request of the Borrowers, a
Lender will provide written support for any claim made pursuant to this Section
3.05; provided that failure to provide such written support shall not impair a
--------
Lender's claim hereunder.
SECTION 3.06 Remedies. Each Guarantor agrees that, as between it, on
--------
the one hand, and the Lenders, on the other hand, the Obligations may be
declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Section 7.01 (and shall
be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances
provided in Section 7.01) notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other
prohibition preventing such declaration (or preventing such Obligations from
becoming automatically due and payable) as against any other Person and that, in
the event of such declaration (or such Obligations being deemed to have become
automatically
-27-
due and payable), such Obligations (whether or not due and payable by any other
Person) shall forthwith become due and payable by such Guarantor. Each Guarantor
acknowledges and agrees that its obligations hereunder are secured in accordance
with the terms of the Security Agreement and that the Lenders may exercise their
remedies thereunder in accordance with the terms thereof.
SECTION 3.07 Limitation of Guaranty. Notwithstanding any provision to
----------------------
the contrary contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents, to the
extent the obligations of any Guarantor shall be adjudicated to be invalid or
unenforceable for any reason (including, without, limitation, because of any
applicable state or federal law relating to fraudulent conveyances or transfers)
then the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder shall be limited to the maximum
amount that is permissible under applicable law (whether federal or state and
including, without limitation, the Bankruptcy Code).
SECTION 3.08 Rights of Contribution. The Credit Parties agree among
----------------------
themselves that, in connection with payments made hereunder, each Credit Party
shall have contribution rights against the other Credit Parties as permitted
under applicable law. Such contribution rights shall be subordinate and subject
in right of payment to the obligations of the Credit Parties under the Loan
Documents and no Credit Party shall exercise such rights of contribution until
all Obligations (other than any such obligations which by the terms thereof are
stated to survive termination of the Loan Documents) have been paid in full and
the Commitments terminated.

SECTION 8.03 No Waiver; Remedies. No failure on the part of any
-------------------
Lender to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or privilege
hereunder or under any other Loan Document and no course of dealing between any
Borrower or any Credit Party and any Lender shall operate as a waiver thereof;
nor shall any single or partial exercise of any other right, power or privilege
hereunder or under any other Loan Document preclude any other or further
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege
hereunder or thereunder. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not
exclusive of any rights or remedies which any Lender would otherwise have. No
notice to or demand on any Credit Party in any case shall entitle any Credit
Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or
-56-
other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of any Lender to any
other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.
SECTION 8.04 Right of Set-Off.
----------------
(a) In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under
applicable law or otherwise, and not by way of limitation of any such rights,
upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and the commencement of remedies
described in Section 7.02, each Lender is authorized at any time and from time
to time, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind (all
of which rights being hereby expressly waived), to set-off and to appropriate
and apply any and all deposits (general or special) and any other indebtedness
at any time held or owing by such Lender (including, without limitation,
branches, agencies or Affiliates of such Lender wherever located) to or for the
credit or the account of any Credit Party against obligations and liabilities of
such Credit Party to the Lenders hereunder, under the Notes, the other Loan
Documents or otherwise, irrespective of whether the Lenders shall have made any
demand hereunder and although such obligations, liabilities or claims, or any of
them, may be contingent or unmatured, and any such set-off shall be deemed to
have been made immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default even
though such charge is made or entered on the books of such Lender subsequent
thereto. The Credit Parties hereby agree that any Person purchasing a
participation in the Loans and Commitments hereunder pursuant to Section 8.05(c)
may exercise all rights of set-off with respect to its participation interest as
fully as if such Person were a Lender hereunder.
(b) The Lenders agree among themselves that, except to the
extent otherwise provided herein, in the event that any Lender shall obtain
payment in respect of any Loan or any other obligation owing to such Lender
under this Agreement through the exercise of a right of setoff, banker's lien or
counterclaim, or pursuant to a secured claim under Section 506 of the Bankruptcy
Code or other security or interest arising from, or in lieu of, such secured
claim, received by such Lender under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or
other similar law or otherwise, or by any other means, in excess of its pro rata
share of such payment as provided for in this Agreement, such Lender shall
promptly pay in cash or purchase from the other Lenders a participation in such
Loans and other obligations in such amounts, and make such other adjustments
from time to time, as shall be equitable to the end that all Lenders share such
payment in accordance with their respective ratable shares as provided for in
this Agreement. The Lenders further agree among themselves that if payment to a
Lender obtained by such Lender through the exercise of a right of setoff,
banker's lien, counterclaim or other event as aforesaid shall be rescinded or
must otherwise be restored, each Lender which shall have shared the benefit of
such payment shall, by payment in cash or a repurchase of a participation
theretofore sold, return its share of that benefit (together with its share of
any accrued interest payable with respect thereto) to each Lender whose payment
shall have been rescinded or otherwise restored. Each Credit Party agrees that
any Lender so purchasing such a participation may, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, exercise all rights of payment, including setoff, banker's
lien or counterclaim, with respect to such participation as fully as if such
Lender were a holder of such Loan or other obligation in the amount of such
participation. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, if any
Lender shall fail to remit to any other Lender an amount payable by such Lender
to such other Lender pursuant to this Agreement on the date when such amount is
due, such payments shall be made together with interest thereon for each date
from the date such amount is due until the date such amount is paid to such
other
-57-
Lender at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate. If under any
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, any Lender receives a
secured claim in lieu of a setoff to which this Section 8.04(b) applies, such
Lender shall, to the extent practicable, exercise its rights in respect of such
secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of the Lenders under this
Section 8.04(b) to share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim.
SECTION 8.05 Benefit of Agreement.

information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and
decision to enter into such assignment agreement; (E) such assignee will

proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Note in any New
York State or federal court. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably
waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient
forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.
(d) Each of the Credit Parties and the Lenders hereby irrevocably
waives all right to trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim
(whether based on contract, tort or otherwise) arising out of or relating to the
Loan Documents or the actions of the Lender in the negotiation, administration,
performance or enforcement thereof.
SECTION 8.11 Time. All references to time herein shall be references
----
to Eastern Standard Time or Eastern Daylight Time, as the case may be, unless
specified otherwise.
SECTION 8.12 Severability. If any provision of any of the Loan
------------
Documents is determined to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, such provision
shall be fully severable and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force
and effect and shall be construed without giving effect to the illegal, invalid
or unenforceable provisions.
SECTION 8.13 Further Assurances. The Credit Parties agree, upon the
------------------
request of the Lenders, to promptly take such actions, as reasonably requested,
as is necessary to carry out the intent of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents, including, but not limited to, such actions as are necessary to
ensure that the Lenders have a perfected security interest in the Collateral
subject to no Liens other than Permitted Liens.
SECTION 8.14 Confidentiality. Each Lender agrees that it will use its
---------------
reasonable best efforts to keep confidential any non-public information from
time to time supplied to it under any Loan Document; provided, however, that
-------- -------
nothing herein shall prevent the disclosure of any such information to (a) the
extent a Lender in good faith believes such
-61-
disclosure is required by Requirement of Law, (b) counsel for a Lender or to its
accountants, (c) bank examiners or auditors or comparable Persons, (d) any
affiliate of a Lender, (e) any other Lender, or any assignee, transferee or
participant, or any potential assignee, transferee or participant, of all or any
portion of any Lender's rights under this Agreement who is notified of the
confidential nature of the information and agrees to be bound by the provisions
of this Section 8.14, (f) any other Person in connection with any litigation to
which any one or more of the Lenders is a party, provided that such Lender takes
reasonable steps to obtain the agreement of such person or a protective order
requiring such person to maintain confidentiality of such information, or (g) to
any direct or indirect contractual counterparty in any swap agreement or such
contractual counterparty's professional advisor (so long as such contractual
counterparty or professional advisor to such contractual counterparty agrees to
be bound by the provisions of this Section 8.14); and provided further that no
Lender shall have any obligation under this Section 8.14 to the extent any such
information becomes available on a non-confidential basis from a source other
than a Credit Party or that any information becomes publicly available other
than by a breach of this Section 8.14 by any Lender or representative thereof.
SECTION 8.15 Entirety. This Agreement together with the other Loan
--------
Documents represent the entire agreement of the parties hereto and thereto, and
supersede all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, if any,
including any commitment letters or correspondence relating to the Loan
Documents or the transactions contemplated herein and therein.
SECTION 8.16 Binding Effect; Continuing Agreement .
------------------------------------
(a) This Agreement shall become effective at such time when all of the
conditions set forth in Section 4.01 have been satisfied or waived by the
Required Lenders and it shall have been executed by the Borrowers, the
Guarantors and the Lenders, and thereafter this Agreement shall be binding upon
and inure to the benefit of the Borrowers, the Guarantors, and each Lender and
their respective successors and assigns.
(b) This Agreement shall be a continuing agreement and shall remain in
full force and effect until all Loans, interest, fees and other Obligations
(other than any obligations which by the terms thereof are stated to survive the
termination of the Loan Documents) have been paid in full and all Commitments
have been terminated. Upon termination, the Credit Parties shall have no further
obligations (other than the indemnification provisions that survive) under the
Loan Documents and the Collateral Agent shall, at the request and expense of the
Borrowers, deliver all Collateral in its possession to the Borrowers and release
all Liens on Collateral; provided that should any payment, in whole or in part,
of the Obligations be rescinded or otherwise required to be restored or returned
by any Lender, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or
reorganization or otherwise, then the Loan Documents shall automatically be
reinstated and all Liens of the Lenders shall reattach to the Collateral and all
amounts required to be restored or returned and all costs and expenses incurred
by the Collateral Agent or any Lender in connection therewith shall be deemed
included as part of the Obligations.
