ARTICLE II:

AMOUNT AND TERMS OF THE LOANS; SECURITY FOR THE LOANS

2.01. Loans.

(a) Revolving Credit Facility. Upon the request of the Borrower, each Bank severally agrees, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, to make loans (individually a “Revolving Credit Loan” and collectively the “Revolving Credit Loans”) to the Borrower from time to time during the period from the Closing Date up to but not including the Termination Date in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount set forth opposite such Bank’s name as the Revolving Credit Commitment on Exhibit A hereto, as such amount may be reduced pursuant to Section 2.02 hereof. The aggregate maximum principal amount of the Revolving Credit Facility shall be $10,000,000.00.

The aggregate principal amount of all borrowings of Revolving Credit Loans made on a single date, which shall not utilize the Revolving Credit Commitments in full, shall be in an amount of not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00). Each Revolving Credit Loan shall be made by each Bank in the Commitment Percentage applicable to each Bank and shall not exceed said Bank’s Revolving Credit Commitment. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and within the limits of the Revolving Credit Commitment, the Borrower may borrow, repay, and reborrow under the Revolving Credit Facility pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. On such terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Revolving Credit Loans may be outstanding as Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Rate Loans. Each Type of Revolving Credit Loan shall be made and maintained at such Bank’s Lending Office for such Type of Revolving Credit Loan. The failure of any Bank to make any requested Revolving Credit Loan to be made by it on the date specified for such Loan shall not relieve any other Bank of its obligation (if any) to make such Revolving Credit Loan on such date, but no Bank shall be responsible for the failure of any other Bank to make such Revolving Credit Loans to be made by such other Bank.

(b) Term Loan Facility. Upon the request of the Borrower, each Bank severally agrees, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, to make available to the Borrower on the closing date of the Acquisition a term loan (individually a “Term Loan” and collectively the “Term Loans”) in a principal amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount set opposite such Bank’s name as the Term Loan Commitment on Exhibit A hereto, as such amount may be reduced pursuant to Section 2.02 hereof. Such Term Loan shall be made by each Bank in the Commitment Percentage applicable to each Bank. Once borrowed, any Term Loan of any Bank will terminate the Term Loan Commitment of said Bank as to any unused portion and any repayment or prepayments of a Term Loan, whether by scheduled installments or otherwise, will not reinstate said Term Loan Commitment, and may not be reborrowed. The proceeds of the Term Loan shall be disbursed by the Agent into such account of ICS with the Agent pursuant to written instructions to be provided to the Agent by an authorized officer of ICS. Subject to the terms hereof, the aggregate maximum principal amount of the Term Loan Facility shall be $45,000,000.00. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, it is understood and agreed that the Term Loan Commitments shall terminate if for any reason whatsoever the Term Loans are not advanced and the Acquisition not closed on or before January 9, 2002.

2.02. Termination or Reduction of Commitment. The Borrower shall have the right, upon at least three (3) Business Days’ notice to the Agent, to terminate in whole or reduce in part the unused portion of either the Revolving Credit Commitment or the Term Loan Commitment, provided that each partial reduction shall be in the amount of at least One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00), and provided further no reduction shall be permitted if, after giving effect thereto, and to any prepayment made therewith, the outstanding and unpaid principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans shall exceed the Revolving Credit Commitment or the outstanding and unpaid principal amount of the Term Loans shall exceed the Term Loan Commitment, as the case may be. Any reduction in part of the unused portion of either Commitment shall be made in the proportion that each Bank’s Commitment bears to the total amount of all Banks’ Commitments. The Commitments, once reduced or terminated, may not be reinstated. If the Revolving Credit Loan Commitment is terminated in its entirety, all accrued Availability Fees shall be due and payable immediately on the Termination Date. If the Revolving Credit Loan Commitment is reduced in part, Availability Fees shall thereafter be calculated on the unused portion of the Revolving Credit Loan Commitment as so reduced.

2.03. Notice and Manner of Borrowing. The Borrower shall give Agent irrevocable written or telephonic notice of a request (effective upon receipt) for any Loan under either Facility not later than 11:00 a.m. Philadelphia time (a) on the same Business Day as each proposed borrowing at a Base Rate and (b) at least two (2) Business Days before each proposed LIBOR Rate Loan provided, however, that a request for a LIBOR Rate Term Loan to be made on January 2, 2002, may be given no later than 11:00 a.m. Philadelphia time on December 31, 2001, and provided further that once three (3) or more Banks are parties to this Agreement then the Borrower shall give the Agent three (3) Business Days notice before each proposed LIBOR Rate Loan. Each such notice shall specify (i) the date of such Loan, which shall be a Business Day, (ii) the amount of each Loan, (iii) the Interest Rate selected by Borrower, and (iv) the duration of any Interest Period applicable thereto, which period must correspond to one of the Interest Rate Options. Notices received after 11:00 a.m. Philadelphia time shall be deemed received on the next Business Day. Until Borrower elects an Interest Rate as provided herein, the principal balance shall bear interest at the Base Rate. Agent shall promptly notify the Banks of such notice. Not later than 1:00 P.M. Philadelphia, Pennsylvania time on the date of any Loan, each Bank will make available to the Agent in immediately available funds at its Lending Office (or at such other location as the Agent may designate), such Bank’s Pro Rata Share of such Loan. The failure of any Bank to make any requested Loan to be made by it on the date specified for either Facility shall not relieve any other Bank of its obligation (if any) to make such Loan on such date, but no Bank shall be responsible for the failure of any other Bank to make such Loans to be made by such other Bank. Each telephonic request must be promptly confirmed in writing and by such method as the Agent may require. The Borrower authorizes the Agent to accept telephonic requests for a Loan, and the Agent shall be entitled to rely upon the authority of any designated representative of Borrower providing such request or instruction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein:

(i) If the Borrower shall have failed to designate the Type of Loan, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Base Rate Loan; and

(ii) If the Borrower shall have failed to select the duration of the Interest Period to be applicable to any LIBOR Rate Loan, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period with a duration of one month.

2.04. Non-Receipt of Funds by Agent. Unless the Agent shall have received notice from a Bank prior to the date on which such Bank is to provide funds to the Agent for a Loan to be made by such Bank that such Bank will not make available to the Agent such funds, the Agent may assume that such Bank has made such funds available to the Agent on the date of such Loan in accordance with Section 2.03 and the Agent in its sole discretion may, but shall not be obligated to, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Bank shall not have made such portion available to the Agent, and the Agent shall have made such corresponding amount available to the Borrower, such Bank, on the one hand, and the Borrower, on the other, severally agree to pay to the Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount, together with interest thereon for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Agent, (a) in the case of such Bank, at a rate of interest per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate for the first three days after the due date of such payment and the Federal Funds Rate plus 2% thereafter until

the date such payment is received by the Agent, and (b) in the case of the Borrower, at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate. If such Bank shall repay to the Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such Bank’s Loan for purposes of this Agreement. If such Bank does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Agent’s demand therefor, the Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower, and the Borrower shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Agent with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Agent, at the rate of interest applicable at the time to such proposed Loan.

Unless the Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Banks hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment in full to the Agent on such date and the Agent in its sole discretion may, but shall not be obligated to, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Bank on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Bank. If and to the extent the Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Agent, each Bank shall repay to the Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Bank together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Bank until the date such Bank repays such amount to the Agent, at the customary rate set by the Agent for the correction of errors among banks for three Business Days and thereafter at the Base Rate.

2.05. Conversions and Renewals. The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert all or a part of one Type of Loan into another Type of Loan or to renew all or part of a Loan by giving the Agent notice at least one (1) Business Day before conversion into a Base Rate Loan, and at least two (2) Business Days before the conversion into or renewal of a LIBOR Rate Loan (provided that once three (3) or more Banks are parties to this Agreement then the Borrower shall give the Agent three (3) Business Days notice before the conversion into or renewal of a LIBOR Rate Loan), specifying: (a) the renewal or conversion date; (b) the amount of the Loan to be converted or renewed; (c) in the case of conversions, the Type of Loan to be converted into; and (d) in the case of renewals of or a conversion into LIBOR Rate Loans, the duration of the Interest Period applicable thereto; provided that (1) the aggregate minimum principal amount of all Loans outstanding after a renewal or conversion thereof on a single date shall be One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00); and (2) LIBOR Rate Loans can be converted only on the last day of the Interest Period for such Rate Loans Loan. The Agent shall promptly notify each Bank of each such notice. All conversions and renewals shall be made in the proportion that each Bank’s Loan bears to the total amount of all the Banks’ Loans. All notices given under this Section shall be irrevocable and shall be given not later than 11:00 A.M. Philadelphia, Pennsylvania time on the day which is not less than the number of Business Days specified above for such notice. If the Borrower shall fail to give the Agent the notice as specified above for the renewal or conversion of a LIBOR Rate Loan prior to the end of the Interest Period with respect thereto, such LIBOR Rate Loan shall automatically be converted into a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the Interest Period for such LIBOR Rate Loan.

2.06. Required Hedge. The Borrower shall on the Borrowing Date for the Term Loan hedge the floating interest expense of at least fifty percent (50%) of the amount of the Term Loan for a term of at least eighteen months from the Closing Date by maintaining one or more interest rate swap transactions with any of the Banks (or with another financial institution approved by the Agent in writing) in an aggregate notional amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan, with the Borrower making fixed rate payments and receiving floating rate payments to offset changes in the variable interest expense of the Term Loan, all upon terms and subject to such conditions as shall be reasonably acceptable to the financial institution entering into such transaction with the Borrower (or the Agent in writing) but in no event shall any Swap Agreement entered in connection herewith have a speculative purpose. The Borrower is permitted to enter into foreign currency exchange contracts in the ordinary course of business provided that such contracts are without a speculative purpose.

2.07. Interest Rate Options. Interest shall accrue on the outstanding and unpaid principal amount of each Bank’s Loans made under this Agreement at a rate per annum selected by Borrower in accordance herewith (each, an “Interest Rate”) as follows:

(a) Revolving Credit Facility. For each Revolving Credit Loan, (x) at the Base Rate or (y) at the LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

(b) Term Loan Facility. For each Term Loan, (x) at the Base Rate, or (y) at the LIBOR Rate plus 1.75%.

Borrower shall select the Interest Rate and for each Interest Rate except the Base Rate, the Interest Period to which such Interest Rate will continuously apply in accordance with the terms of Section 2.03 hereof. There shall be no more than one Interest Rate for any Loan in effect at any time.

Interest and fees, if any, shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days in the applicable period (“Actual/360 Computation”). The Actual/360 Computation determines the annual effective yield by taking the stated (nominal) rate for a year’s period and then dividing said rate by 360 to determine the daily periodic rate to be applied for each day in the applicable period. Application of the Actual/360 Computation produces an annualized effective rate exceeding the nominal rate.

Nothing contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document shall be deemed to establish or require the payment of interest to the Banks at a rate in excess of the maximum rate permitted by applicable law. It is the intention of the Borrower and the Banks to conform strictly to applicable usury laws. Accordingly, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the Notes, amounts constituting interest under applicable law and contracted for, chargeable or receivable hereunder or under the Notes shall under no circumstances, together with any other interest, late charges or other amounts which may be interpreted to be interest contracted for, chargeable or receivable hereunder or thereunder, exceed the maximum amount of interest permitted by law, and in the event any amounts were to exceed the maximum amount of interest permitted by law, such excess amounts shall be deemed a mistake and shall either be reduced immediately and automatically to the maximum amount permitted by law or, if required to comply with applicable law, be cancelled automatically and, if theretofore paid, at the option of the Banks, be refunded to the Borrower or credited on the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding.

The Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Banks upon determining the interest rate for each LIBOR Rate Loan after its receipt of the relevant request for borrowing, conversion or continuation; provided, however, that the failure of the Agent to provide the Borrower or the Banks with any such notice shall neither affect any obligations of the Borrower or the Banks hereunder nor result in any liability on the part of the Agent to the Borrower or any Bank. Each such determination (including each determination of the Reserve Requirement) shall, absent manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all parties hereto.

2.08. Notes.

(a) The Loans made by each Bank shall be evidenced (1) in the case of Revolving Credit Loans, by a Revolving Credit Note appropriately completed in substantially the form of Exhibit B-1, and (2) in the case of the Term Loan, by a Term Note appropriately completed in substantially the form of Exhibit B-2.

(b) Each Revolving Credit Note issued to a Bank shall (1) be executed by the Borrower, (2) be payable to the order of such Bank, (3) be dated as of the Closing Date, (4) be in a stated principal amount equal to such Bank’s Revolving Credit Commitment, (5) bear interest in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.07, as the same may be applicable to the Revolving Credit Loans made by such Bank from time to time, and (6) be entitled to all of the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and subject to the provisions hereof and thereof.

(c) The Term Note issued to a Bank shall (1) be executed by the Borrower, (2) be payable to the order of such Bank, (3) be dated as of the Closing Date, (4) be in a stated principal amount equal to such Bank’s Term Loan Commitment, (5) bear interest in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.07, as the same may be applicable to the Term Loans made by such Bank from time to time, and (6) be entitled to all of the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and subject to the provisions hereof and thereof.

(d) Each Bank will record on its internal records the amount of each Loan made by it and each renewal, conversion, and payment received by it in respect thereof and will, in the event of any transfer of any of its Notes, either endorse on the reverse side thereof or on a schedule attached

thereto (or any continuation thereof) the outstanding principal amount of the Loans evidenced thereby as of the date of transfer or provide such information on a schedule to the Assignment and Assumption relating to such transfer, provided, however, that the failure of any Bank to make any such recordation or provide any such information, or any error therein, shall not affect the Borrower’s obligations under this Agreement or the Notes. The Banks’ records as set forth above shall be presumed to be correct absent manifest error.

2.09. Repayment. The Borrower shall repay the Loans made under this Agreement as follows:

(a) Revolving Credit Facility. Interest to the Agent on the outstanding and unpaid principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans shall be paid to the Agent on account of the Banks in immediately available Dollars as follows:

(1) For each Base Rate Loan, monthly in arrears, on the last Business Day of each month, commencing the first such day after such Loan; and

(2) For each LIBOR Rate Loan on the last day of the Interest Period with respect thereto.

All outstanding principal of the Revolving Credit Loans and all accrued interest thereon shall be paid by the Borrower to the Agent on account of the Banks in immediately available Dollars on the Termination Date.

(b) Term Loan Facility. Interest to the Agent on the outstanding and unpaid principal amount of on the Term Loan Facility shall be paid to the Agent on account of the Banks in immediately available Dollars as follows:

(1) For each Base Rate Loan, monthly in arrears, on the last Business Day of each month, commencing the first such day after such Loan; and

(2) For each LIBOR Rate Loan on the last day of the Interest Period with respect thereto.

The unpaid principal balance of Term Loan shall be paid to Agent on account of the Banks in monthly installments in accordance with the following schedule: (a) The sum of $500,000.00, commencing on January 31, 2002 and continuing on the last Business Day of each succeeding month, for six months; (b) The sum of $1,000,000.00, commencing on July 31, 2002, and continuing on the last Business Day of each succeeding month, for six months; (c) The sum of $1,250,000.00 commencing on January 31, 2003, and continuing on the last Business Day of each succeeding month, for six months; (d) The sum of $1,500,000.00, commencing on July 31, 2003, and continuing on the last Business Day of each succeeding month, for twelve months; (e) The sum of $1,750,000.00, commencing on July 31, 2004, and continuing on last Business Day of each succeeding month, until the maturity date, when all outstanding principal and all accrued interest thereon shall be repaid.

2.10. Interest after Maturity. Any principal amount of any Loan not paid when due (at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) shall bear interest thereafter until paid in full (before or after judgment), payable on demand, at a rate per annum equal to the Interest Rate of such Loan (as in effect on the date of Default) plus 4% (“Default Rate”). To the greatest extent permitted by law, interest shall continue to accrue at the Default Rate after the filing by or against the Borrower of any petition seeking any relief in bankruptcy or under any law pertaining to insolvency or debtor relief.

2.11. Mandatory and Optional Prepayments. If after a reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitment as provided in Section 2.02 or at any other time, the aggregate unpaid principal balance of the Revolving Credit Loans exceeds the Revolving Credit Commitment, the Borrower shall immediately prepay Revolving Credit Loans in an amount sufficient to reduce such aggregate unpaid principal balance to an amount that is not greater than the Revolving Credit Commitment. If after a reduction of the Term Loan Commitment as provided in Section 2.02 or at any other time, the aggregate unpaid principal balance of the Term Loan exceeds the Term Loan Commitment, the Borrower shall immediately prepay the Term Loan in an amount sufficient to reduce such aggregate unpaid principal balance to an amount that is not greater than the Term Loan Commitment.

The Borrower may at its option, upon at least one (1) Business Day’s notice to the Agent, in the case of Base Rate Loan at least two (2) Business Days’ notice to Agent in the case of each LIBOR Rate Loan (provided that once three (3) or more Banks are parties to this Agreement then the Borrower shall give the Agent three (3) Business Days notice in the case of each LIBOR Rate Loan), prepay without premium or penalty any Loan in whole or in part with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the amount prepaid, provided that (1) each partial prepayment shall be in a principal amount of not less than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00); and (2) LIBOR Rate Loans may be prepaid only on the last day of the Interest Period for such LIBOR Rate Loan; and (3) in regard to the Term Loan, prepayments shall be applied to the principal installments of the Term Note in the inverse order of their maturities. Any prepayment not made in accordance herewith shall be accompanied by such additional amounts deemed necessary by the Banks to compensate the Banks for any losses, costs or expenses which the Banks may be deemed to incur as a result of such prepayments. No prepayment will affect the Borrower’s obligation to continue to make payments under any Swap Agreements which will remain in full force and effect notwithstanding that prepayment.

Upon receipt of any such prepayments, the Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed such prepayment to each Bank for the account of its applicable Lending Office in the proportion that each such Bank’s Loan to which the prepayment applies bears to the total amount of all the Banks’ Loans to which the prepayment applies.

2.12. Method of Payment. The Borrower shall make each payment under this Agreement and under the Notes not later than 1:00 P.M. Philadelphia, Pennsylvania time on the date when due in lawful money of the United States to the Agent at its Lending Office (as set forth in Section 9.02 (b) for the account of the applicable Lending Office of each Bank in immediately available Dollars. The Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed (1) such payments of principal and interest in like funds to each Bank for the account of its applicable Lending Office in the proportion that such Bank’s Loans to which the payment applies bears to the total amount of all Banks’ Loans to which the payment applies and (2) other fees payable to any Bank to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Borrower hereby authorizes each Bank, if and to the extent payment is not made when due under this Agreement or under the Notes, to charge from time to time against any account of the Borrower with such Bank any amount as due. Whenever any payment to be made under this Agreement or under the Notes shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payments shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of the payment of interest and the Availability Fee, as the case may be, except, in the case of a LIBOR Rate Loan, if the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. Borrower further certifies that Borrower holds legitimate ownership of such account(s) and preauthorizes this periodic debit as part of its right under said ownership.

With respect to each payment hereunder, except as specifically provided otherwise herein or in any of the other Loan Documents, the Borrower may designate by written notice to the Agent prior to or concurrently with such payment the specific Loans or other Obligations that are to be paid, repaid or prepaid, provided that (i) unless made together with all amounts required hereunder to be paid as a consequence thereof, a prepayment of a LIBOR Rate Loan may be made only on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, and (ii) each payment on account of any Obligations to or for the account of one or more Banks shall be apportioned ratably among such Banks in proportion to the amounts of such Obligations owed to them respectively. In the absence of any such designation by the Borrower, or if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such payment shall be applied by the Agent and the Banks in the following manner and order: (i) first, to the payment of all Agency Fees and Expenses; (ii) second, to the payment on a pari passu basis of the Loans and any indebtedness owed to the Banks under any Swap Agreement; and (iii) third, to the payment of any other Obligations as directed by the Required Banks. Payments allocated to the Loans shall be applied as follows: (1) first, to the payment of interest on, and then the principal portion of any Base Rate Loans; and then (2) second, to the payment of interest on, and then the principal portion of, any LIBOR Rate Loans.

Each determination of the Base Rate or a LIBOR Rate by the Agent pursuant to this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on all parties hereto absent manifest error. The Borrower acknowledges that to the extent interest payable on Base Rate Loans is based on the base rate, such rate is only one of the bases for computing interest on loans made by the Banks, and by basing interest payable on Base Rate Loans on such base rate, the Banks have not committed to charge, and the Borrower has not in any way bargained for, interest based on a lower or the lowest rate at which the Banks may now or in the future make loans to other borrowers.

2.13. Use of Proceeds. The Borrower shall use the proceeds of the Revolving Credit Facility for general corporate purposes, working capital, to pay off the Existing Debt, and for the purchase of a Target. The proceeds of the Term Loan shall be used by the Borrower to finance in part the Acquisition. The Borrower will not, directly or indirectly, use any part of such proceeds for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any margin stock within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or to extend credit to any Person for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any such margin stock.

2.14. Recovery of Payments.

(a) The Borrower agrees that to the extent the Borrower makes a payment or payments to or for the account of any Bank, which payment or payments or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or repayment, the Obligation intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been received.

(b) If any amounts distributed by the Agent to any Bank are subsequently returned or repaid by such Agent to the Borrower or its representative or successor in interest, whether by court order or by settlement approved by the Bank in question, such Bank will promptly upon receipt of notice thereof from such Agent, pay such Agent such amount. If any such amounts are recovered by such Agent from the Borrower or its representative or successor in interest, such Agent will redistribute such amounts to the Banks on the same basis as such amounts were originally distributed. The provisions of this Section 2.14 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

2.15. Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Payments.

(a) All fundings, continuations and conversions of Loans shall be made by the Banks pro rata on the basis of their respective Commitment Percentage.

(b) Each Bank agrees that if it shall receive any amount (whether by voluntary payment, realization upon security, exercise of the right of setoff or banker’s lien, counterclaim or cross action, or otherwise), other than pursuant to Section 9.14, applicable to the payment of any of the Loans that exceeds its ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of said indebtedness due and payable to such Bank at such time to (ii) the aggregate amount of said indebtedness due and payable to all Banks at such time) of payments on account of said indebtedness then or therewith obtained by all the Banks to which such payments are required to have been made, such Bank shall forthwith purchase from the other Banks such participations in such said indebtedness as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Bank to share the excess payment or other recovery ratably with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Bank, such purchase from each such other Bank shall be rescinded and each such other Bank shall repay to the purchasing Bank the purchase price to the extent of such recovery, together with an amount equal to such other Bank’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such other Bank’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Bank) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Bank in respect of the total amount so recovered. The Borrower agrees that any Bank so purchasing a participation from another Bank pursuant to the provisions of this subsection may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise any and all rights of payment (including, without limitation, setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim) with respect to such participation as fully as if such participant were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. If under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law, any Bank receives a secured claim in lieu of a setoff to which this subsection applies, such Bank shall, to the extent practicable, exercise its rights in respect of

such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of the Banks entitled under this subsection to share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim. Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the rights of the Agent as provided in Section 10.7 hereof.

2.16. Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, if any Bank determines that any applicable law, rule, or regulation, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank, or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by such Bank (or its Lending Office) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank, or comparable agency shall make it unlawful or impossible for such Bank (or its Lending Office) to maintain or fund its LIBOR Rate Loans, then upon notice to the Borrower (with a copy to the Agent) by such Bank the outstanding principal amount of all LIBOR Rate Loans, together with interest accrued thereon, and any other amounts payable to each Bank under this Agreement shall be repaid (a) immediately upon demand of such Bank if such change or compliance with such request, in the judgment of such Bank, requires immediate repayment, or (b) at the expiration of the last Interest Period to expire before the effective date of any such change or request.

2.17. Disaster. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein,

(a) If the Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive) that quotations of interest rates for the relevant deposits referred to in the definition of LIBOR Rate are not being provided in the relevant amounts or for the relative maturities for purposes of determining the rate of interest on a LIBOR Rate Loan as provided in this Agreement; or

(b) If the Agent shall have received written notice from any Bank of its determination (which determination shall be conclusive) that the relevant rates of interest referred to in the definition of LIBOR Rate upon the basis of which the rate of interest for LIBOR Rate Loan is to be determined do not accurately cover the cost to such Bank of making or maintaining such type of Loans; then the Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrower, whereupon (1) the obligation of such Bank to make LIBOR Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Agent notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, and (2) the Borrower shall repay in full the then outstanding principal amount of each LIBOR Rate Loan, together with accrued interest thereon, on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such Loan.

2.18. Increased Cost. From time to time upon notice to the Borrower from a Bank (with a copy to the Agent) the Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of the applicable Bank such amounts as any Bank may determine to be necessary to compensate such Bank for any costs incurred by such Bank which such Bank determines are attributable to its making or maintaining any LIBOR Rate Loans hereunder or its obligation to make any such Loans hereunder, or any reduction in any amount receivable by such Bank under this Agreement in respect of any such Loans or such obligation (such increases in costs and reductions in amounts receivable being herein called “Additional Costs”), resulting from any change after the date of this Agreement in U.S. federal, state, municipal, or foreign laws or regulations (including Regulation D), or the adoption or making after such date of any interpretations, directives, or requirements applying to a class of banks including such Bank of or under U.S. federal, state, municipal, or foreign laws or regulations (whether or not having the force of law) by any court or governmental or monetary authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof (“Regulatory Change”), which: (1) changes the basis of taxation of any amounts payable to such Bank under this Agreement in respect of any such Loans (other than taxes imposed on the overall net income of such Bank or of its Lending Office for any of such Loans by the jurisdiction where the Lending Office or such Lending Office is located); or (2) imposes or modifies any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, or similar requirements relating to any extensions or credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities of, such Bank (including any of such Loans or any deposits referred to in the definition of LIBOR Rate); or (3) imposes any other condition affecting this Agreement (or any such extensions of credit or liabilities).

2.19. Risk-Based Capital. In the event that any Bank determines that (1) compliance with any judicial, administrative, or other governmental interpretation of any law or regulation or (2) compliance by such Bank or any corporation controlling such Bank with any guideline or request from any central bank or

other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law) has the effect of requiring an increase in the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Bank, and such Bank determines that such increase is based upon its obligations hereunder, and other similar obligations, the Borrower shall pay to the Agent, for the account of the applicable Bank, such additional amount as shall be certified by the Bank to be the amount allocable to such Bank’s obligations to the Borrower hereunder.

2.20. Funding Loss Indemnification. Upon notice to the Borrower from a Bank (with a copy to the Agent) the Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of the applicable Bank, such amount or amounts as shall be sufficient (in the reasonable opinion of such Bank) to compensate it for any loss, cost, or expense incurred as a result of any payment of a LIBOR Rate Loan on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan including, but not limited to acceleration of the Loans by the Agent pursuant to Section 8.01.

2.21. Bank’s Determination Conclusive; Notice of Amounts Due.

(a) Determinations by any Bank for purposes of Sections 2.16, 2.17, 2.18, 2.19, and 2.20 shall be conclusive, provided that such determinations are made on a reasonable basis.

(b) The Bank will notify the Borrower (with a copy to the Agent) of any event occurring after the date of this Agreement that will entitle a Bank to compensation pursuant to Sections 2.18, 2.19. and 2.20 as promptly as practicable after it obtains knowledge thereof and determines to request such compensation. Said notice shall be in writing, shall specify the applicable Section or Sections of this Agreement to which it relates and shall set forth the amount or amounts then payable pursuant to such Sections. The Borrower shall pay the Agent for the account of the applicable Bank the amount shown as due on such notice within 10 days after its receipt of the same.

(c) Failure on the part of a Bank to demand compensation pursuant to Sections 2.18 and 2.19 with respect to any period pursuant to the terms hereof shall not constitute a waiver of the Bank’s right to demand compensation with respect to such period or any other period.

2.22. No Setoff or Deduction. All payments of principal and interest on the Loans and other amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder shall be made by the Borrower without setoff or counterclaim, and free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, or on account of, any present or future taxes or assessments imposed by any governmental authority, or by any departmental agency or other political subdivision or taxing authority.

2.23. Fees.

(a) Availability Fee. Borrower shall pay to Agent on account of the Banks quarterly, commencing on March 31, 2002, and on the last Business Day of each succeeding quarter thereafter, an availability fee (“Availability Fee”) equal to 0.25% per annum, based on a year of 360 days, on the average daily unused available principal under the Revolving Credit Commitment for the preceding calendar quarter or portion thereof, payable in arrears, during the term of the Revolving Credit Facility with a final payment due and payable on the Termination Date. The Availability Fee shall be shared by the Banks in accordance with their Pro Rata Share.

(d) Agency Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent, for its own account, the annual Agency Fee (as defined in the Fee Letter) on the terms, at the times, and in the amounts set forth in the Fee Letter.

2.24. Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by the Borrower hereunder or under any Note shall be made, in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, other than net income and franchise taxes imposed on the Agent or any Bank by the United States or by the jurisdiction under the laws where the Agent or such Bank, as the case may be, is organized or in which its principal office or (in the case of the Agent) its applicable Lending Office is located, any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof (all such nonexcluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If the Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under the Note to the Agent or any Bank, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section), the Agent or such Bank, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower will make such deductions, (iii) the Borrower will pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law and (iv) the Borrower will deliver to such Agent or such Bank, as the case may be, evidence of such payment.

(b) The Borrower will indemnify the Agent and each Bank for the full amount of Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section) paid by the Agent or such Bank, as the case may be, and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date the Agent or such Bank, makes written demand therefor.

(c) If any Bank is a “foreign corporation, partnership or trust” within the meaning of the Internal Revenue Code, and such Bank claims exemption from United States withholding tax under Section 1441 or 1442 of the Internal Revenue Code, such Bank will deliver to each of the Agent and the Borrower, on or prior to the date of any payment by the Borrower to such Bank under this Agreement or the Notes, a properly completed Internal Revenue Service Form 4224 or 1001, as applicable (or successor forms), certifying that such Bank is entitled to an exemption from or a reduction of withholding or deduction for or on account of United States federal income taxes in connection with payments under this Agreement or any of the Notes, together with a properly completed Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 or W-9, as applicable (or successor forms). Each such Bank further agrees to deliver to each of the Agent and the Borrower an additional copy of each such relevant form on or before the date that such form expires (currently, three successive calendar years for Form 1001 and one calendar year for Form 4224) or becomes obsolete or after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent forms so delivered by it, in each case certifying that such Bank is entitled to an exemption from or a reduction of withholding or deduction for or on account of’ United States federal income taxes in connection with payments under this Agreement or any of the Notes, unless an event (including, without limitation, any change in treaty, law or regulation) has occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be required, which event renders all such forms inapplicable or the exemption to which such forms relate unavailable and such Bank notifies the Agent and the Borrower that it is not entitled to receive payments without deduction or withholding of United States federal income taxes. Each such Bank will promptly notify the Agent and the Borrower of any changes in circumstances that would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction.

(d) If any Bank is entitled to a reduction in (and not a complete exemption from) the applicable withholding tax, the Borrower and the Agent may withhold from any interest payment to such Bank an amount equivalent to the applicable withholding tax after taking into account such reduction. If any of the forms or other documentation required under this Section above are not delivered to the Agent as therein required, then the Borrower and the Agent may withhold from any interest payment to such Bank not providing such forms or other documentation an amount equivalent to the applicable withholding tax.

(e) The provisions of this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

2.25. Late Charge. If any payment is not made in full within ten (10) calendar days after the date when due (whether by maturity, acceleration, or otherwise), Borrower shall, to the extent permitted by law, pay immediately to the Agent on account of the Banks a single late charge equal to five percent (5%) of the entire payment amount due on such due date. This provision shall not be construed to change the due date of any payment to be made hereunder. Acceptance by Bank of any late payment without an accompanying late charge shall not be deemed a waiver of Bank’s right to collect such late charge or to collect a late charge for any subsequent late payment received.

9.05. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

9.06. No Waiver of Remedies. No delay or failure of the Agent or the Banks or the Borrower in exercising any right, power, or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. The rights and remedies provided hereunder are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies (including, without limitation, the right of specific performance) which the Agent or the Banks or the Borrower would otherwise have. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character on the part of the Agent and the Banks of any Default under this Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document or any such waiver of any provision or condition hereof or thereof must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent in such writing specifically set forth. The Borrower acknowledges that with respect to this Agreement and its terms it is neither authorized nor entitled to rely on any representations, modifications or assurances in any form or as to any subject from any officer of the Agent or the Banks unless and until such representation, modification or assurance is set forth in writing and signed by such officer of the Agent or the Banks.

9.07. Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents have been executed, delivered and accepted in, and shall be deemed to have been made in, Pennsylvania and shall be governed by and construed and enforced and construed as if drafted equally by all parties hereto in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (without regard to the conflicts of law provisions thereof). The Borrower hereby consents to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any state court within Xxxxxxxxxx County, Pennsylvania or any Federal Court located within the Eastern District of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania for any proceeding instituted hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, or arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or any proceeding to which the Agent or any Bank or the Borrower is a party, including any actions based upon, arising out of, or in connection with, any course of conduct, course of dealing, statement (whether oral or written) or actions of the Agent or any Bank or the Borrower. The Borrower irrevocably agrees to be bound (subject to any available right of appeal) by any judgment rendered or relief granted thereby and further waives any objection that it may have based on lack of jurisdiction or improper venue or forum non-conveniens to the conduct of any such proceeding. The Borrower consents that all service of process be made by registered or certified mail directed to it at its address set forth herein above, and service so made shall be deemed to be completed upon the earlier of actual receipt thereof or three (3) days after deposit in the United States mails, return receipt requested, proper postage prepaid and properly addressed. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed or operate to affect the rights of the Agents or the Banks to serve legal process or to bring any action permitted by law against any Obligor or involving any Collateral in the appropriate court of any other appropriate jurisdiction or forum.

9.08. Severability of Provisions. Any provision of any Loan Document that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions of such Loan Document or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

9.09. Survival of Agreement. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made herein and in the certificates delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the making by the Banks of the Loans and the execution and delivery to the Banks of the Notes and shall continue in full force and effect so long as any Obligation is outstanding and unpaid.

9.10. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Agent and the Banks and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights under any Loan Document to which the Borrower is a party without the prior written consent of the Banks.

9.11. Joint and Several Liability. This Agreement shall constitute the joint and several obligations of each Borrower, and each Borrower shall be deemed to have made the representations and warranties herein set forth.

9.12. Arbitration; Preservation and Limitation of Remedies. Upon demand of any party hereto, whether made before or after institution of any judicial proceeding, any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of, connected with or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document (“Disputes”) between or among the Borrower, the Agent and the Banks, or any of them, shall be resolved by binding arbitration as provided herein. Institution of a judicial proceeding by a party does not waive the right of that party to demand arbitration hereunder. Disputes may include, without limitation, tort claims, counterclaims, claims brought as class actions, claims arising from documents executed in the future, or claims arising out of or connected with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Arbitration shall be conducted under and governed by the Commercial Financial Disputes Arbitration Rules (the “Arbitration Rules” of the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”), as in effect from time to time, and Title 9 of the U.S. Code, as amended. All arbitration hearings shall be conducted in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The expedited procedures set forth in the Arbitration Rules shall be applicable to claims of less than $1,000,000. All applicable statutes of limitation shall apply to any Dispute. A judgment upon the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The panel from which all arbitrators are selected shall be comprised of licensed attorneys. The single arbitrator selected for expedited procedure shall be a retired judge from the highest court of general jurisdiction, state or federal, of the state where the hearing will be conducted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this arbitration provision does not apply to Disputes under or related to Swap Agreements or Disputes to which the Borrower is not a party. Notwithstanding the preceding binding arbitration provisions, the parties hereto agree to preserve, without diminution, certain remedies that any party hereto may employ or exercise freely, either alone, in conjunction with or during a Dispute. Any party hereto shall have the right to proceed in any court of proper jurisdiction or by self-help to exercise or prosecute the following remedies, as applicable: (1) all rights of self-help, including peaceful occupation of real property and collection of rents, set-off, and peaceful possession of personal property; (2) obtaining provisional or ancillary remedies, including injunctive relief, sequestration, garnishment, attachment, appointment of a receiver and filing an involuntary bankruptcy proceeding; and (3) when applicable, a judgment by confession of judgment. Preservation of these remedies does not limit the power of an arbitrator to grant similar remedies that may be requested by a party in a Dispute. The parties hereto agree that no party shall have a remedy of punitive or exemplary damages against any other party in any Dispute, and each party hereby waives any right or claim to punitive or exemplary damages that it has now or that may arise in the future in connection with any Dispute, whether such Dispute is resolved by arbitration or judicially.

9.13. Waiver of Jury Trial. The parties acknowledge that by agreeing to binding arbitration they have irrevocably waived any right they may have to jury trial with regard any right or claim to a trial by jury in any legal proceeding involving, directly or indirectly, any matter (whether sounding in tort, contract, or otherwise) in any way arising out of or related to this Agreement or any Loan Document.

9.14. Assignments, Participations.

(a) Each Bank may assign to one or more other Eligible Assignees (each, an “Assignee”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitment, the outstanding Loans made by it and the Note or Notes held by it); provided, however, that (1) any such assignment (other than an assignment to a Bank or an affiliate of a Bank) shall not be made without the prior written consent of the Agent and the Borrower (to be evidenced by their counterexecution of the relevant Assignment and Assumption), which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and, in the case of the Borrower, shall not be required during the continuance of an Event of Default, (2) except in the case of an assignment to a Bank or an affiliate of a Bank, the amount of the Commitment of the assigning Bank being assigned pursuant to each such assignment (determined as of the date of’ the Assignment and Assumption with respect to each such assignment) shall in no event be less than the lesser of (y) the entire Commitment of such Bank immediately prior to such assignment or (z) $5,000,000.00, (3) each such assignment shall be of a constant, and not varying, percentage of

the Commitments of the transferor Bank, and (4) the parties to each such assignment will execute and deliver to the Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, an Assignment and Assumption, together with any Note or Notes subject to such assignment, and will pay a nonrefundable processing fee of $3,000.00 to the Agent for its own account. Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, of the Assignment and Assumption, from and after the effective date specified therein, which effective date shall be at least five (5) Business Days after the execution thereof (unless the Agent shall otherwise agree), (A) the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption, shall have the rights and obligations of the assigning Bank hereunder with respect thereto and (B) the assigning Bank shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption, relinquish its rights (other than rights under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents relating to indemnification or payment of fees, costs and expenses, to the extent such rights relate to the time prior to the effective date of such Assignment and Assumption) and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all or the remaining portion of such assigning Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Bank shall cease to be a party hereto). The terms and provisions of each Assignment and Assumption shall, upon the effectiveness thereof, be incorporated into and made a part of this Agreement, and the covenants, agreements and obligations of each Bank set forth therein shall be deemed made to and for the benefit of the Agent and the other parties hereto as if set forth at length herein.

(b) The Agent will maintain at its address for notices referred to herein a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Banks and the Commitments of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Bank from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Agent and the Banks may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Bank hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and each Bank at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(c) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Bank and an Assignee and counterexecuted by the Borrower (if required), together with the Notes subject to such assignment and the processing fee referred to in subsection (a) above, the Agent will (1) accept such Assignment and Assumption, (2) on the effective date thereof, record the information contained therein in the Register and (3) give notice thereof to the Borrower, the Agent and the Banks. Within five (5) Business Days after its receipt of such notice, the Borrower, at its own expense, will execute and deliver to the Agent in exchange for the surrendered Notes (y) a new Revolving Credit Note to the order of such Assignee in a principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment (or, if the Revolving Credit Commitments have been terminated, the principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans) assumed by it pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption and, to the extent the assigning Bank has retained its Revolving Credit Loans and/or Revolving Credit Commitment hereunder, a new Revolving Credit Note to the order of the assigning Bank in an amount equal to the principal amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment (or, if the Revolving Credit Commitments have been terminated, the principal amount of the Revolving Credit Committed Loans) retained by it hereunder, and (z) a new Term Note to the order of such Assignee in a principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Term Loan assumed by it pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption and, to the extent the assigning Bank has retained a portion of the Term Loans hereunder, a new Term Loan in the amount of the Term Loan retained by it hereunder. Such new Notes shall be dated the date of the replaced Notes and shall otherwise be in substantially the forms of Exhibits B-1 and B-2, as applicable. Upon receipt of such new Notes, the Agent will return cancelled Notes to the Borrower.

(d) Each Bank may, without the consent of or notice to the Borrower or any other Obligor, have the unrestricted right at any time and from time to time to grant to one or more banks or other financial institutions (each, a “Participant”) participating interests in any or all of the Loans held by Bank hereunder (including, without limitation all or portion of its Commitment, the outstanding Loans made by it and the Note or Notes held by it); provided, however, that (1) such Bank’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged and such Bank shall remain solely responsible for the performance of such obligations, (2) the Borrower, the Agent and the other Banks shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Bank in connection with such Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, and no Bank

shall permit any Participant to have any voting rights or any right to control the vote of such Bank with respect to any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action hereunder or under any other Loan Document (except as to actions that would (x) reduce or forgive the principal amount of, or rate of interest on, any Loan, or reduce or forgive any fees or other Obligations, (y) extend any date (including the Termination Date) fixed for the payment of any principal of or interest on any Loan, any fees or any other Obligations, or (z) increase any Commitment of any Bank), and (3) no Participant shall have any rights under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, each Participant’s rights against the granting Bank in respect of any participation to be those set forth in the participation agreement, and all amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder shall be determined as if such Bank had not granted such participation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Participant shall have the rights of a Bank for purposes of Sections 2.16, 2.17, 2.18, 2.19 and 8.03 and shall be entitled to the benefits thereto, to the extent that the Bank granting such participation would be entitled to such benefits if the participation had not been made, provided that no Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant to any of such Sections than the Bank granting such participation would have been entitled to receive in respect of the amount of the participation made by such Bank to such Participant had such participation not been made. Notice of any participations shall be given to the Agent and the other Bank.

(e) Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prohibit any Bank from pledging or assigning all or any portion of its rights and interest hereunder or under any Note to any Federal Reserve Bank as security for borrowings therefrom, provided, however, that no such pledge or assignment shall release a Bank from any of its obligations hereunder.

(f) Any Bank may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section, disclose to the Assignee or Participant or proposed Assignee or Participant any information relating to the Borrower furnished to it by or on behalf of any other party hereto, provided that such Assignee or Participant or proposed Assignee or Participant agrees in writing to keep such information confidential to the same extent required of the Banks under Section 9.15.

9.15. Confidentiality. Each Bank agrees to keep confidential, pursuant to its customary procedures for handling confidential information of a similar nature and in accordance with safe and sound banking practices, all nonpublic information provided to it by or on behalf of the Borrower in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided, however, that an Agent or a Bank may disclose such information (1) to its directors, employees and agents and to its auditors, counsel and other professional advisors, (2) at the demand or request of any bank regulatory authority, court or other Governmental Authority having or asserting jurisdiction over such Bank, as may be required pursuant to subpoena or other legal process, or otherwise in order to comply with any applicable Requirement of Law, (3) in connection with any proceeding to enforce its rights hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any other litigation or proceeding related hereto or to which it is a party, (4) to the Agent or any other Bank, (5) to the extent the same has become publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Agreement and (6) pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.14(f).

ARTICLE X: AGENCY AGREEMENT

10.01. Appointment. Each Bank hereby irrevocably 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 as are reasonably incidental thereto. The duties of the Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in nature and the Agent shall not by reason of this Agreement be a trustee or fiduciary for any Bank. The Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth herein. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement (including, without limitation, enforcement or collection of the Notes), the Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or so refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Required Banks, and such instructions shall be binding upon all Banks and all holders of Notes; provided however, that the Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes the Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or applicable law.

10.02. Liability of Agent. Neither the Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with this Agreement in the absence of its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the generally of the foregoing, the Agent (1) may treat the payee of any Note as the holder thereof until the Agent receives written notice of the assignment or transfer thereof signed by such payee and in form satisfactory to the Agent; (2) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for the Borrower), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants, or experts; (3) makes no warranty or representation to any Bank and shall not be responsible to any Bank for any statements, warranties, or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement; (4) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants, or conditions of this Agreement on the part of the Borrower, or to inspect the property (including the books and records) of the Borrower; (5) shall not be responsible to any Bank for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, perfection, sufficiency, or value of this Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto; and (6) shall incur no liability under or in respect to this Agreement by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate, or other instrument or writing (which may be sent by telegram, telex, cable, or facsimile transmission) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties. The Banks hereby acknowledge that the Agent shall not be under any duty to take any discretionary action permitted to be taken by it pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall be requested in writing to do so by the Required Banks (or, where a higher percentage of the Banks is expressly required hereunder, such Banks).

10.03. Exculpatory Provisions. Neither the Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates shall be (1) liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection with the Loan Documents, except for its or such Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct, (2) responsible in any manner to any Bank for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties herein or in any other Loan Document or in any document, instrument, certificate, report or other writing delivered in connection herewith or therewith, for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for the financial condition of the Borrower, or any other Person, or (3) required to ascertain or make any inquiry concerning the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the existence or possible existence of any Default or Event of Default, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Borrower.

10.04. Reliance by Agent. The Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any notice, statement, consent or other communication (including, without limitation, any thereof by telephone, telecopy, telex, telegram or cable) believed by it in good faith to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons. The Agent may deem and treat each Bank as the owner of its interest hereunder for all purposes hereof unless and until written notice of the assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been given to such Agent in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. The Agent shall be entitled to refrain from taking or omitting to take any action in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document (1) if such action or omission would, in the reasonable opinion of the Agent, violate any applicable law or any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or (2) unless and until it shall have received such advice or concurrence of the Required Banks (or, where a higher percentage of the Banks is expressly required hereunder, such Banks) as it deems appropriate or it shall first have been indemnified to its satisfaction by the Banks against any and all liability and expense (other than liability and expense arising from its own gross negligence or willful misconduct) that may be incurred by it by reason of taking, continuing to take or omitting to take any such action. Without limiting the foregoing, no Bank shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Agent as a result of the Agent’s acting or refraining from acting hereunder or under any other Loan Document in accordance with the instructions of the Required Banks (or, where a higher percentage of the Banks is expressly required hereunder, such Banks), and such instructions and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of the Banks (including all subsequent Banks).

10.05. Non-Reliance on Agent. Each Bank expressly acknowledges that neither the Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates has made any representation or warranty to it and that no act by the Agent or any such Person hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Agent to

any Bank. Each Bank represents to the Agent that (1) it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Bank and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, properties, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and extend credit to the Borrower hereunder, and (2) it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Bank 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 hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, properties, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Bank with any credit or other or response information concerning the business, prospects, operations, properties, financial or other condition or creditworthiness of the Borrower, or any other Person that may at any time come into the possession of the Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates.

10.06. 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 the Borrower or a Bank referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” In the event that the Agent receives such a notice, the Agent will give notice thereof to the Banks as soon as reasonably practicable; provided, however, that if any such notice has also been furnished to the Banks, the Agent shall have no obligation to notify the Banks with respect thereto. The Agent shall (subject to Sections 10.4 and 9.01) take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall reasonably be directed by the Required Banks provided that, unless and until the Agent shall have received such directions, 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 in the best interests of the Banks.

10.07. Indemnification. To the extent the Agent is not reimbursed by or on behalf of the Borrower, and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so, the Banks agree (1) to indemnify the Agent and its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact and Affiliates ratably in proportion to their respective Commitment Percentages as of the date of determination, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may at any time (including at any time following the repayment in full of the Loans and the termination of the Commitments) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Agent under or in correction with any of the foregoing, and (2) to reimburse the Agent upon demand, ratably in proportion to their respective percentages as used in determining the Required Banks as of the date of determination, for any expenses incurred by the Agent in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery, administration, amendment, modification, waiver or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and compensation of agents and employees paid for services rendered on behalf of the Banks); provided, however, that no Bank shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements to the extent resulting, from the finally adjudicated gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party to be indemnified.

10.08. The Agent in its Individual Capacity. With respect to its Commitment, the Loans made by it and the Note or Notes issued to it, the Agent in its individual capacity and not as the Agent shall have the same rights and powers under the Loan Documents as any other Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not performing the agency duties specified herein; and the terms “Banks,” “Required Banks,” “holders of Notes” and any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include the Agent in its individual capacity. The Agent and its affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory or other business with the Borrower or any of its Affiliates as if the Agent were not performing the agency duties specified herein, and may accept fees and other consideration from any of them for services in connection with this Agreement and otherwise without having to account for the same to the Banks.

10.09. Successor Agents. The Agent may resign at any time by giving thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Borrower and the Banks. The Required Banks will, with the prior written consent of the Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), appoint from among the Banks a successor to the Agent, as appropriate provided that the Borrower’s consent shall not be required in the event a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing). If no such successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Banks and shall have accepted such appointment within such thirty-day period, then the resigning Agent may, on behalf of the Banks and after consulting with the Banks and the Borrower, appoint a successor Agent, as appropriate, from among the Banks. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as an Agent by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the resigning Agent, and the resigning Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. After any resigning Agent’s resignation as an Agent, the provisions of this Article shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was an Agent. If no successor to an Agent, as appropriate, has accepted appointment as such Agent by the thirtieth (30th) day following a resigning Agent’s notice of resignation, the resigning Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless

[Remainder of page intentionally left blank]

thereupon become effective, and the Banks shall thereafter perform all of the duties of such Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents until such time, if any, as the Required Banks appoint a successor Agent as provided for hereinabove.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties, intending to be legally bound, have caused this Agreement to be executed by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized, UNDER SEAL, as of the date first above written.

The Borrower hereby authorizes the Lender to keep computer stored records of the amount and Type of all Revolving Credit Loans made to the Borrower and all renewals, conversions, and payment of principal amounts in respect of such Revolving Credit Loans, which records shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive as to the outstanding principal amount of all Revolving Credit Loans; provided, however, that the failure to keep such records with respect to any Loan or renewal, conversion or payment shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower under the Loan Agreement or this Note.

Borrower specifically waives any right to any form of notice or to any acknowledgment by agent which might be applicable pursuant to the Pennsylvania Probate, Estates and Fiduciaries Code (“Probate Code”), as amended, to any power of attorney, or any warrant of attorney to confess judgment, granted herein and hereby directs that any power of attorney, or any warrant of attorney to confess judgment, granted herein not be construed in accordance with the terms of the Probate Code.

CONFESSION OF JUDGMENT. THE FOLLOWING PARAGRAPH SETS FORTH A POWER OF AUTHORITY FOR ANY ATTORNEY TO CONFESS JUDGMENT AGAINST BORROWER. IN GRANTING THIS WARRANT OF ATTORNEY TO CONFESS JUDGMENT AGAINST BORROWER, THE BORROWER, JOINTLY AND SEVERALLY, FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH COUNSEL FOR BORROWER AND WITH KNOWLEDGE OF THE LEGAL EFFECT HEREOF, HEREBY KNOWINGLY, INTENTIONALLY, VOLUNTARILY, INTELLIGENTLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHTS THE BORROWER HAS OR MAY HAVE TO PRIOR NOTICE AND AN OPPORTUNITY FOR HEARING UNDER THE RESPECTIVE CONSTITUTIONS AND LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA, OR ELSEWHERE INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, A HEARING PRIOR TO GARNISHMENT AND ATTACHMENT OF THE BORROWER’S BANK ACCOUNT AND OTHER ASSETS. BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES AND UNDERSTANDS THAT BY ENTERING INTO THIS NOTE CONTAINING A CONFESSION OF JUDGMENT CLAUSE THAT BORROWER IS VOLUNTARILY, INTELLIGENTLY AND KNOWINGLY GIVING UP ANY AND ALL RIGHTS, INCLUDING CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS, THAT BORROWER HAS OR MAY HAVE TO NOTICE AND A HEARING BEFORE JUDGMENT CAN BE ENTERED AGAINST BORROWER AND BEFORE THE BORROWER’S ASSETS, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ITS BANK ACCOUNTS, MAY BE GARNISHED, LEVIED, EXECUTED UPON AND/OR ATTACHED. BORROWER UNDERSTANDS THAT ANY SUCH GARNISHMENT, LEVY, EXECUTION AND/OR ATTACHMENT SHALL RENDER THE PROPERTY GARNISHED, LEVIED, EXECUTED UPON OR ATTACHED IMMEDIATELY UNAVAILABLE TO BORROWER. IT IS SPECIFICALLY ACKNOWLEDGED BY BORROWER THAT THE LENDER HAS RELIED ON THIS WARRANT OF ATTORNEY AND THE RIGHTS WAIVED BY BORROWER HEREIN IN RECEIVING THIS NOTE AND AS AN INDUCEMENT TO GRANT FINANCIAL ACCOMMODATIONS TO THE BORROWER.

If a Default occurs under this Note or any other Loan Documents, each Borrower hereby jointly and severally authorizes and empowers any attorney of any court of record or the prothonotary or clerk of any county in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, or in any jurisdiction where permitted by law or the clerk of any United States District Court, to appear for Borrower in any and all actions which may be brought hereunder and enter and confess judgment against the Borrower or any of them in favor of the Lender for such sums as are due or may become due hereunder or under any other Loan Documents, together with costs of suit and actual collection costs including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees equal to 10% of the full amount confessed hereunder but in no event less than $5,000.00, with or without declaration, without prior notice, without stay of execution and with release of all procedural errors and the right to issue executions forthwith. The Borrower agrees that the confession may include the amounts of the attorneys’ commission specified in the preceding sentence for the purpose of establishing a sum certain and reserves the right only to contest the collection by Lender of any attorneys’ fees which are unreasonable or have not been actually incurred by Lender. To the extent permitted by law, Borrower waives the right of inquisition on any real estate levied on, voluntarily condemns the same, authorizes the prothonotary or clerk to enter upon the writ of execution this voluntary condemnation and agrees that such real estate may be sold on a writ of execution; and also waives any relief from any appraisement, stay or exemption law of any state now in force or hereafter enacted. Borrower further waives the right to any notice and hearing prior to the execution, levy, attachment or other type of enforcement of any judgment obtained hereunder, including, without limitation, the right to be notified and heard prior to the garnishment, levy, execution upon and attachment of Borrower’s bank accounts and other property. If a copy of this Note verified by affidavit of any officer of the Lender shall have been filed in such action, it shall not be necessary to file the original thereof as a warrant of attorney, any practice or usage to the contrary notwithstanding. The authority herein granted to confess

judgment shall not be exhausted by any single exercise thereof, but shall continue and may be exercised from time to time as often as the Lender shall find it necessary and desirable and at all times until full payment of all amounts due hereunder and under any other Loan Documents. The Lender may confess one or more judgments in the same or different jurisdictions for all or any part of the Obligations arising hereunder or under any other Loan Documents to which Borrower is a party, without regard to whether judgment has theretofore been confessed on more than one occasion for the same Obligations. In the event that any judgment confessed against the Borrower is stricken or opened upon application by or on behalf of Borrower or any Obligor for any reason, the Lender is hereby authorized and empowered to again appear for and confess judgment against Borrower for any part or all of the Obligations owing under this Note and/or for any other liabilities, as herein provided.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the undersigned have caused this Note to be executed under seal by its duly authorized officer as of the day and year first above written.
