(2) Manner of Payment.

(i) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing (which notice may be by facsimile or electronic mail) of any repayment or prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of repayment or prepayment of a LIBO Rate Loan with an Interest Period not expiring on the date of payment, not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) three Business Days before the date of repayment or prepayment, or (ii) in the case of repayment or prepayment of a LIBO Rate Loan with Interest Periods expiring on the date of repayment or prepayment or a Base Rate Loan, not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date of repayment or prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the repayment or prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be repaid or prepaid. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each repayment or prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loan included in the repaid or prepaid Borrowing. Repayments and prepayments shall be accompanied by (A) accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.9 and (B) any payments due pursuant to Section 2.8. If the Borrower fails to make a timely selection of the Borrowing or Borrowings to be repaid or prepaid, such payment shall be applied, first, to pay any outstanding Base Rate Loan and, second, to other Borrowings in the order of the remaining duration of their respective Interest Periods (the Borrowing with the shortest remaining Interest Period to be repaid first).

(ii) The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by them hereunder (whether of principal, interest or fees) or under any other Loan Document (except to the extent otherwise provided therein) prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York time) (unless otherwise specified in this Agreement), on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim; provided that if a new Loan is to be made by any Lender on a date the Borrower are to repay any principal of an outstanding Loan of such Lender, such Lender shall apply the proceeds of such new Loan to the payment of the principal to be repaid and only

an amount equal to the difference between the principal to be borrowed and the principal to be repaid shall be made available by such Lender to the Administrative Agent as provided in Section 2.4. or paid by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this paragraph, as the case may be. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be wired to the Administrative Agent at the Contact Office, ABA 000-000-000 for the Administrative Agent’s Account No. 00-000-000, Ref: TE/TOUSA Mezzanine LLC, except as otherwise expressly provided in the relevant Loan Document, and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.15, 2.17, 2.18 and 9.14 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder or under any other Loan Document (except to the extent otherwise provided therein) shall be made in Dollars.

(3) Maintenance of Loan Accounts by Lenders. Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower 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.

(4) Maintenance of Loan Accounts by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.

(5) Effect of Entries. The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to Sections 2.7(3) and (4) above shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(6) Promissory Notes. Upon the request of a Lender, the Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver to such Lender a Note evidencing such Lender’s Commitment.

2.8 Repayment and Prepayment of the Loan

(1) Mandatory Prepayments. The Borrower shall remit to the Administrative Agent as a mandatory prepayment for application against the outstanding principal balance of the Loan:

(i) The Proceeds of a Casualty or Condemnation of a Mortgaged Property to the extent required to be applied to the prepayment of the Loan under this Agreement.

(ii) Concurrently with any prepayment of principal of the Senior Term Loan or the Senior Mezzanine Loan, Borrower shall prepay the principal amount of the Loan on a pro rata basis based on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, the Senior Loan, and the Senior Mezzanine Loan.

(2) Optional Prepayments. Borrower shall be prohibited from voluntarily prepaying the Loan, in whole or in part, until the first Payment Date following the first anniversary of the Closing Date (the period to but excluding such Payment Date, the “Lockout Period”). Lenders shall have no obligation to accept any voluntary prepayment during the Lockout Period. After the expiration of the Lockout Period, upon not less than five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly provide telephonic notice of the receipt thereof to each of the Lenders), the Borrower may voluntarily prepay principal amounts outstanding under the Loan in whole or in part (without any release of collateral securing the Loan); provided, however, that voluntary prepayments shall be in the minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof. As a condition precedent to any voluntary prepayment of a Loan, the principal amount of the Senior Loan and the Senior Mezzanine Loans shall be concurrently repaid pro rata based on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, the Senior Loan, and the Senior Mezzanine Loan. In no event shall Administrative Agent be obligated to accept any voluntary payment of the Loan unless either an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or it has received evidence reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent that the required pro rata portion of the Senior Loan and Senior Mezzanine Loan has been, or concurrently will be, paid.

(3) Accrued Interest. The Borrower shall pay in connection with any prepayment hereunder, whether voluntary or mandatory, all interest accrued but unpaid on that portion of the Loan to which such prepayment is applied, concurrently with payment of any principal amounts.

(4) Priority of Payments.

(i) Following the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, all amounts received by the Administrative Agent on account of the Obligations, shall be promptly disbursed by the Administrative Agent as follows:

(A) First, to the payment of expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent in the performance of its duties and the enforcement of the rights of the Lenders under the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, all costs and expenses of collection, reasonable attorneys’ fees (including all allocated costs of internal counsel), court costs and other amounts payable as provided in Section 9.14 below;

(B) Then, to the Lenders, pro rata in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares, until interest accrued on the Loan has been paid in full;

(C) Then, to the Lenders, pro rata in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares, until principal under the Loan has been paid in full;

(D) Then, to the Lenders, pro rata to each Lender in accordance with the amount expressed in a percentage, which the amount of remaining Obligations owed to

such Lender bears to all remaining Obligations held by all Lenders, until all other Obligations have been paid in full.

(ii) The order of priority set forth in Section 2.8(4)(i) and the related provisions of this Agreement are set forth solely to determine the rights and priorities of the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders as among themselves. The order of priority set forth in clauses (B) through (D) of Section 2.8(4)(i) may at any time and from time to time be changed by the Required Lenders without necessity of notice to or consent of or approval by the Borrower or any other Person. The order of priority set forth in clause (A) of Section 2.8(4)(i) may be changed only with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.

2.9 Interest.

(1) Base Rate Loans. The Loans comprising each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Base Rate.

(2) LIBO Rate Loans. The Loans constituting each LFBO Rate Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable LIBO Rate for the Interest Period for such Borrowing.

(3) Payment of Interest.

(i) The Borrower shall pay interest on Base Rate Loans quarterly, in arrears, on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter, as set forth on an interest billing statement delivered by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower (which delivery may be by facsimile transmission) no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on a date at least one Business Day prior to the date such interest is due.

(ii) The Borrower shall pay interest on the LIBO Rate Loans on the last day of the applicable Interest Period or, in the case of LIBO Rate Loans with an Interest Period ending later than three months after the date funded, converted or continued, at the end of each three month period from the date funded, converted or continued and on the last day of the applicable Interest Period, as set forth on an interest billing statement delivered by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower (which delivery may be by facsimile transmission) no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on a date at least one Business Day prior to the date such interest is due.

(4) Computations. All computations of interest and fees payable hereunder shall be based upon a year of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed (which results in more interest being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year).

(5) Default Interest. During such time as there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default, all Obligations outstanding, shall, at the election of the Administrative Agent, bear interest at a per annum rate equal to two percent (2%) above the Applicable Base Rate in effect during the applicable calculation period (whether or not such Applicable Base Rate shall otherwise have been elected by Borrower in accordance with this Agreement).

2.10 Presumptions of Payment.

Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate.

2.11 Pro Rata Treatment.

Except to the extent otherwise provided herein: (i) each payment or prepayment of principal of any Loan by the Borrower shall be made for account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of the Loan held by them; and (ii) each payment of interest on any Loan by the Borrower shall be made for account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the amounts of interest on such Loan then due and payable to the respective Lenders.

2.12 Inability to Determine Rates.

In the event that the Administrative Agent shall have reasonably determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower) that by reason of circumstances affecting the interbank market adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBO Rate for any Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give telephonic notice of such determination to each Lender and to the Borrower. If such notice is given: (1) no portion of the Loan may be funded as a LIBO Rate Loan, (2) any Base Rate Loan that was to have been converted to a LIBO Rate Loan shall, subject to the provisions hereof, be continued as a Base Rate Loan, and (3) any outstanding LIBO Rate Loan shall be converted, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, to a Base Rate Loan. Until such notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall not have the right to convert any Base Rate Loan to a LIBO Rate Loan or to continue a LIBO Rate Loan as such. The Administrative Agent shall withdraw such notice in the event that the circumstances giving rise thereto no longer pertain and that adequate and reasonable means shall exist for ascertaining the LIBO Rate for the Interest Period requested by the Borrower, and, following withdrawal of such notice by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall have the right to convert any Base Rate Loan to a LIBO Rate Loan and to continue any LIBO Rate Loan as such in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

2.13 Illegality.

Notwithstanding any other provisions herein, if any law, regulation, treaty or directive issued by any Governmental Authority or any change therein or in the interpretation or application thereof, shall make it unlawful for any Lender to maintain LIBO Rate Loans as contemplated by this Agreement: (1) the commitment of such Lender hereunder to continue

LIBO Rate Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to LIBO Rate Loans shall forthwith be cancelled, and (2) LIBO Rate Loans held by such Lender then outstanding, if any, shall be converted automatically to Base Rate Loans at the end of their respective Interest Periods or within such earlier period as may be required by law. In the event of a conversion of any LIBO Rate Loan prior to the end of its applicable Interest Period, the Borrower hereby agrees promptly to pay any Lender affected thereby, upon demand, the amounts required pursuant to Section 2.17 below, it being agreed and understood that such conversion shall constitute a prepayment for all purposes of this Section 2.13. The provisions hereof shall survive the termination of this Agreement and payment of all other Obligations.

2.14 Funding.

Each Lender shall be entitled to fund all or any portion of its Commitment to make any Loan in any manner it may determine in its sole discretion, including, without limitation, in the Grand Cayman inter-bank market, the London inter-bank market and within the United States, but all calculations and transactions hereunder shall be conducted as though all Lenders actually fund all LIBO Rate Loans through the purchase of offshore Dollar deposits in the amount of such Lender’s Commitment of the relevant LIBO Rate Loan with a maturity corresponding to the applicable Interest Period.

2.15 Increased Costs.

(1) In the event that any applicable law, order, regulation, treaty or directive issued by any central bank or other governmental authority, agency or instrumentality or in the governmental or judicial interpretation or application thereof, or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) issued by any central bank or other governmental authority, agency or instrumentality:

(i) Does or shall subject any Lender to any Taxes of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement or any Loan, or change the basis of determining the Taxes imposed on payments to such Lender of principal, fee, interest or any other amount payable hereunder (except for change in the rate of tax on the overall net income of such Lender);

(ii) Does or shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, capital requirement, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirements against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender which are not otherwise included in the determination of interest payable on the Obligations; or

(iii) Does or shall impose on such Lender any other condition;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of making, renewing or maintaining its Loan or the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender, then, in any such case, the Borrower shall, without duplication of amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.18, promptly pay to such Lender, upon its written demand made through the Administrative Agent, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender for such additional cost or reduced amounts receivable or rate of return as determined by

such Lender with respect to this Agreement or such Lender’s Loan, so long as such Lender requires substantially all obligors under other commitments of this type made available by such Lender to similarly so compensate such Lender.

(2) If a Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.15, it shall promptly notify the Borrower of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled. A certificate specifying the reason for any additional amounts so claimed payable containing the calculation thereof in reasonable detail submitted by a Lender to the Borrower, accompanied by a certification that such Lender has required substantially all obligors under other commitments of this type made available by such Lender to similarly so compensate such Lender, shall constitute prima facie evidence thereof.

(3) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation. The provisions of this Section 2.15 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and payment of the Loan and all other Obligations.

2.16 Obligation of Lenders to Mitigate; Defaulting Lenders; Replacement of Lenders.

(1) As promptly as reasonably practicable after the officer of any Lender responsible for administering such Lender’s Loan becomes aware of any event or condition that would entitle such Lender to receive payments under Section 2.15 above or Section 2.18 below or to cease maintaining XXXX Rate Loans under Section 2.13 above, such Lender will use reasonable efforts: (i) to maintain its Loan through another lending office of such Lender or (ii) take such other reasonable measures, if as a result thereof the additional amounts which would otherwise be required to be paid to such Lender pursuant to Section 2.15 above or pursuant to Section 2.18 below would be materially reduced or eliminated or the conditions rendering such Lender incapable of maintaining LIBO Rate Loans under Section 2.5 above no longer would be applicable, and if, as determined by such Lender in its sole discretion, the maintaining of such LIBO Rate Loans through such other lending office or in accordance with such other measures, as the case may be, would not otherwise materially adversely affect such LIBO Rate Loans or the interests of such Lender.

(2) [Reserved].

(3) Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that: (a) (i) any Lender (an “Increased-Cost Lender”) shall give notice to Borrower that such Lender is adversely affected under Section 2.13 (other than in circumstances where events subject to such Section generally affect Lenders) or is entitled to receive payments under Section 2.15 or 2.18 (other than in circumstances where events subject to such Sections generally entitle Lenders to payment), (ii) the circumstances which have caused such Lender to be so adversely affected or which entitle such Lender to receive such payments shall remain in effect, and (iii) such Lender shall fail to withdraw such notice within five Business Days after Borrower’s request for such withdrawal; or (b) any Lender shall become and then be a Defaulting Lender; or (c) in connection with any proposed amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent which requires unanimous approval as contemplated by Section 9.2, the consent of Required Lenders shall have been obtained but the consent of one or more of

such other Lenders (each a “Non-Consenting Lender”) whose consent is required shall not have been obtained; then so long as no Potential Default or Event of Default is then continuing, with respect to each such Increased-Cost Lender, Defaulting Lender or Non-Consenting Lender (the “Terminated Lender”), Borrower may, by giving written notice to Administrative Agent and any Terminated Lender of its election to do so, elect to cause such Terminated Lender (and such Terminated Lender hereby irrevocably agrees) to assign its outstanding Loan in full to one or more Eligible Assignees (each a “Replacement Lender”) in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.8 and Terminated Lender shall pay any fees payable thereunder in connection with such assignment; provided, (1) on the date of such assignment, the Replacement Lender shall pay to Terminated Lender an amount equal to the sum of (A) an amount equal to the principal of, and all accrued interest on, all outstanding Loan of the Terminated Lender, (B) an amount equal to all unreimbursed drawings that have been funded by such Terminated Lender, together with all then unpaid interest with respect thereto at such time and (C) an amount equal to all accrued, but theretofore unpaid fees owing to such Terminated Lender pursuant to Section 2.19; (2) on the date of such assignment, Borrower shall pay any amounts payable to such Terminated Lender pursuant to Section 2.15 and 2.18; or otherwise as if it were a prepayment and (3) in the event such Terminated Lender is a Non-Consenting Lender, each Replacement Lender shall consent, at the time of such assignment, to each matter in respect of which such Terminated Lender was a Non-Consenting Lender. Upon the prepayment of all amounts owing to any Terminated Lender, such Terminated Lender shall no longer constitute a “Lender” for purposes hereof; provided, any rights of such Terminated Lender to indemnification hereunder shall survive as to such Terminated Lender.

2.17 Funding Indemnification.

In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any LIBO Rate Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any LIBO Rate Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice is permitted to be revocable under Section 2.5 and is revoked in accordance herewith), or (d) the assignment of any LIBO Rate Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.5, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a LIBO Rate Loan, the loss to any Lender attributable to any such event shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that such Lender would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan for the period from the date of such payment, conversion, failure or assignment to the last day of the then current Interest Period for such Loan (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the duration of the Interest Period that would have resulted from such borrowing, conversion or continuation) if the interest rate payable on such deposit were equal to the Reserve Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period, over (ii) the amount of interest that such Lender would earn on such principal amount for such period if such Lender were to invest such principal amount for such period at the interest rate that would be bid by such Lender (or an affiliate of such Lender) for Dollar deposits from other banks in the eurodollar market at the commencement of such period. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower

and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

2.18 Taxes.

(1) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if the Borrower shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.18) the Administrative Agent, Lender (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 shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(2) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(3) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, within ten (10) Business Days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.18) paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender and any penalties, interest (except to the extent such penalties and/or interest arise as a result of a Lender’s delay in dealing with any such Indemnified Tax) and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(4) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(5) Each Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower (with copies to the Administrative Agent) on or before the date hereof (or in the case of a Foreign Lender who became a Lender by way of an assignment, on or before the date of the assignment) or at least five (5) Business Days prior to the first date for any payment herewith to such Lender, and from time to time as required for renewal under applicable law, such certificates, documents or other evidence, as required by the Code or Treasury Regulations issued pursuant thereto, including, without limitation, Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-ECI, as appropriate, and any other certificate or statement of exemption required by Section 871(h) or Section 881(c) of the Code or any subsequent version thereof, properly completed and duly executed by such Lender establishing that payments to such Lender hereunder are not subject to withholding under the

Code (“Evidence of No Withholding”). Each Foreign Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of any change in its applicable lending office and upon written request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent shall, prior to the immediately following due date of any payment by the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document, deliver Evidence of No Withholding to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. The Borrower shall be entitled to rely on such forms in their possession until receipt of any revised or successor form pursuant to this Section 2.18(5). If a Lender fails to provide Evidence of No Withholding as required pursuant to this Section 2.18(5), then (i) the Borrower (or the Administrative Agent) shall be entitled to deduct or withhold from payments to Administrative Agent or such Lender as a result of such failure, as required by law, and (ii) the Borrower shall not be required to make payments of additional amounts with respect to such withheld Taxes pursuant to Section 2.18(1) to the extent such withholding is required solely by reason of the failure of such Lender to provide the necessary Evidence of No Withholding.

2.19 Preferential Payments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, if any amount paid on account of the Obligations is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid by any Lender or the Administrative Agent or paid over to a trustee, receiver or any other entity, whether under any bankruptcy act or otherwise (such payment, a “Preferential Payment”), then, to the extent of such Preferential Payment, the Obligations or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made

2.20 Credit Support.

(1) Guaranties. As credit support for the Obligations, on or before the Closing Date, the Guarantors shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, the Guaranties.

(2) Pledge Agreement. As credit support for the Obligations, on or before the Closing Date, the Pledgers shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, the Pledge Agreements.

ARTICLE 8.
THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

8.1 Appointment. Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Administrative Agent as the agent of such Lender under the Loan Documents and each such Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent, as the agent for such Lender, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of the Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of the Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental

thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein or therein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into the Loan Documents or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent.

8.2 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under the Loan Documents by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. With respect to the Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attomeys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.

8.3 Exculpatory Provisions. None of the Administrative Agent, the other Agents, nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates shall be (1) liable for any action lawfully 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), or (2) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by the Borrower Parties or any officer thereof contained in the Loan Documents or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with the Loan Documents or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of the Loan Documents or for any failure of the Borrower Parties to perform their obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Administrative Agent and the other Agents shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, the Loan Documents or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Borrower Parties.

8.4 Reliance by the Agents. Each of the Agents shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certification, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation reasonably believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by such Agent. As to the Lenders: (1) the Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under the Loan Documents unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of one hundred percent (100%) of the Lenders (or, if a provision of this Agreement expressly provides that a lesser number of the Lenders may direct the action of the Administrative Agent, such lesser number of Lenders) or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any action (except for liabilities and expenses resulting from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct), and (2) the Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under the Loan Documents in accordance with a request of one hundred percent (100%) of the Lenders (or, if a provision of this Agreement expressly provides that the Administrative Agent shall be required to act or refrain from acting at the request of a lesser number of the Lenders, such lesser number

of Lenders), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders.

8.5 Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Potential Default or Event of Default hereunder unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to the Loan Documents, describing such Potential Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice and a Potential Default or Event of Default has occurred, the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Potential Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders; provided that, unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Potential Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interest of the Lenders (except to the extent that this Agreement, the Pledge Agreements or the Guaranties expressly require that such action be taken or not taken by the Administrative Agent with the consent or upon the authorization of the Required Lenders or such other group of Lenders, in which case such action will be taken or not taken as directed by the Required Lenders or such other group of Lenders or Lenders).

8.6 Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that none of the Administrative Agent, the other Agents nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Administrative Agent or the other Agents hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower Parties, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent or the other Agents to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Administrative Agent and the other Agents that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the other Agents or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower Parties and made its own decision to make its loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the other Agents or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower Parties. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent and the other Agents shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Borrower Parties which may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any other Agent or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates.

8.7 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent and the other Agents in their respective capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by the

Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), ratably according to the respective amounts of their Pro Rata Shares, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time (including without limitation at any time following the payment of the Obligations) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent or the other Agents in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or the transactions contemplated hereby or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent or the other Agents under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Administrative Agent’s or any other Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, respectively. The provisions of this Section 8.7 shall survive the payment of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

8.8 Agents in Their Individual Capacity. The Administrative Agent, the other Agents and their affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with any of the Borrower Parties or any of their respective Subsidiary Entities and Affiliates as though the Administrative Agent and the other Agents were not, respectively, the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arranger or an Agent hereunder. With respect to such loans made or renewed by them and any Note issued to them, the Administrative Agent and the other Agents shall have the same rights and powers under the Loan Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arranger or an Agent, respectively, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arranger and each other Agent in its individual capacity.

8.9 Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents upon thirty (30) days’ notice to the Lenders. If the Administrative Agent shall resign, then the Lenders (other than the Lender resigning as Administrative Agent) shall (with, so long as there shall not exist and be continuing an Event of Default, the consent of the Borrower, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) appoint a successor agent or, if the Lenders are unable to agree on the appointment of a successor agent, the Administrative Agent shall appoint a successor agent for the Lenders whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent, and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor agent effective upon its appointment, and the former Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents or successors thereto. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of the Loan Documents shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents.

8.10 Limitations on Agents Liability. The Lead Arranger, in such capacity, shall not have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

(2) The Agent shall, on behalf of the Borrower, maintain a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance Agreement delivered to it and a register (the “Register”) for the

recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the principal amount of the Loan owing to each Lender from time to time. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrower, each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of the Loan for all purposes of this Agreement. From and after the date that the Administrative Agent notifies the assignor Lender and the Borrower that it has received an executed Assignment and Acceptance Agreement and payment of the above-referenced processing fee, and the assignment has been recorded in the Register: (i) the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender under the Loan Documents, (ii) the assignor Lender shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents (but shall be entitled to indemnification as otherwise provided in this Agreement with respect to any events occurring prior to the assignment) and (iii) this Agreement shall be deemed to be amended to the extent, but only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of the Assignee and the resulting adjustment of the Pro Rata Shares resulting therefrom.

(3) Within five Business Days after its receipt of notice by the Administrative Agent that it has received an executed Assignment and Acceptance Agreement and payment of the processing fee (which notice shall also be sent by the Administrative Agent to each Lender), the Borrower shall, if requested by the Assignee, execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, a new Note evidencing such Assignee’s Pro Rata Share of the Loan.

(4) Any Lender may at any time sell to one or more commercial banks or other Persons not Affiliates of the Borrower (a “Participant”) participating interests in the Loan and the other interests of that Lender (the “Originating Lender”) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; provided, however, that (i) the Originating Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) the Originating Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance of such obligations, and (iii) the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with the Originating Lender in connection with the Originating Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. In the case of any such participation, the Participant shall be entitled to the benefit of Sections 2.13, 2.15, and 2.18 (and subject to the burdens of Sections 2.15, 2.16 and 9.8 above) as though it were also a Lender thereunder, and if amounts outstanding under this Agreement are due and unpaid, or shall have been declared or shall have become due and payable upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of set-off in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement, and Section 9.10 of this Agreement shall apply to such Participant as if it were a Lender party hereto.

(5) Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, any Lender may assign all or any portion of its Pro Rata Share of the Loan held by it to any Federal Reserve Lender or the United States Treasury as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve

System and any Operating Circular issued by such Federal Reserve Lender, provided that any payment in respect of such assigned Pro Rata Share of the Loan made by the Borrower to or for the account of the assigning and/or pledging Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall satisfy the Borrower’s obligations hereunder in respect to such assigned Pro Rata Share of the Loan to the extent of such payment. No such assignment shall release the assigning Lender from its obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender that is a fund that invests in bank loans may create a security interest in all or any portion of the sums owing to it and the Note or Notes held by it to the trustee for holders of obligations owed, or securities issued, by such fund as security for such obligations or securities, provided, that unless and until such trustee actually becomes a Lender in compliance with the other provisions of this Section 9.8, (i) no such pledge shall release the pledging Lender from any of its obligations under the Loan Documents and (ii) such trustee shall not be entitled to exercise any of the rights of a Lender under the Loan Documents even though such trustee may have acquired ownership rights with respect to the pledged interest through foreclosure or otherwise.

(6) Subject to Section 9.8(1) above, the Lead Arranger may syndicate the Loan and the other Obligations held by the Lenders hereunder before or after the Closing Date, and the Lead Arranger (or its designated Affiliates) shall manage all aspects of such syndication, including the number and identity of the potential Lenders participating in the syndication and the Loan amounts and compensation offered in connection therewith. Each Borrower Party agrees to take all actions as the Lead Arranger (or its designated Affiliates) may reasonably request to assist in the syndication, including: (i) making its senior management and representatives available to participate in informational meetings with potential Lenders at such times and places as the Lead Arranger (or its designated Affiliates) may reasonably request; (ii) using its reasonable efforts to ensure that the syndication efforts benefit from such Borrower Party’s lending relationships; and (iii) providing the Lead Arranger (or its designated Affiliates) with all information reasonably deemed necessary to successfully complete the syndication.

(7) Until the date the Lead Arranger notifies the Borrower that the syndication of the Loan has been completed, the Borrower Parties shall not, and shall not permit the Borrower and its Subsidiary Entities to engage any Person to effect any offering, placement or arrangement of debt securities or any bank financing by or on behalf of any Transaction Party.

9.9 Counterparts. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which together shall constitute one agreement.

9.10 Sharing of Payments. If any Lender shall receive and retain any payment, whether by setoff, application of deposit balance or security, or otherwise, in respect of the Obligations in excess of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof, then such Lender shall purchase from the other Lenders for cash and at face value and without recourse, such participation in the Obligations held by them as shall be necessary to cause such excess payment to be shared ratably as aforesaid with each of them; provided, that if such excess payment or part thereof is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, the related purchases from the other Lenders shall be rescinded ratably and the purchase price restored as to the portion of such excess payment so recovered, but without interest. Each Lender is hereby authorized by the Borrower Parties to exercise any and all rights of setoff, counterclaim or bankers’ lien against the full amount of the

Obligations, whether or not held by such Lender. Each Lender hereby agrees to exercise any such rights first against the Obligations and only then to any other Indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender.

Nothing contained herein shall restrict any Lender from disclosing such information (i) pursuant to any requirement of any Governmental Authority; (ii) pursuant to subpoena or other court process; (iii) when required to do so in accordance with the provisions of any applicable Requirement of Law; (iv) to the extent reasonably required in connection with any litigation or proceeding to which the Administrative Agent, any Lender or their respective Affiliates may be party; (v) to the extent reasonably required in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document; (vi) to such Lender’s independent auditors and other professional advisors; and (vii) to any Participant or Assignee and to any prospective Participant or Assignee, provided that each Participant and Assignee or prospective Participant or Assignee first agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section 9.11.

9.14 Indemnity. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, each of the Borrower Parties shall indemnify and hold the Administrative Agent, the other Agents and each Lender and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, counsel, agents and attorneys-in-fact (each, an “Indemnified Person”) harmless from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, charges, expenses and disbursements (including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses) of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time (including at any time following repayment of the Loan and the termination, resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or replacement of any Lender) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such Person in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, or the transactions contemplated hereby, or any action taken or omitted by any such Person under or in connection with any of the foregoing, including with respect to any investigation, litigation or proceeding (including any insolvency proceeding or appellate proceeding) related to or arising out of this Agreement or the Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof, whether or not any Indemnified Person is a party thereto (all the foregoing, collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided, however, that the Borrower Parties shall have no obligation hereunder to any Indemnified Person with respect to Indemnified Liabilities resulting solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person. Without limiting the foregoing, the Borrower shall pay all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of outside counsel) (1) of the Administrative Agent incident to the preparation, negotiation and administration and performance of the Loan Documents, including any proposed Modifications or waivers with respect thereto, the due diligence review undertaken in connection therewith, and the syndication of the Loan (but such expenses shall not include any fees paid to the syndicate members), and the preservation and protection of the rights of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents (including expenses incurred in creating and perfecting the Lien in favor of the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents), and (2) of the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders incident to the enforcement of payment of the Obligations, whether by judicial proceedings or otherwise, including, without limitation, in connection with bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, reorganization, moratorium or other similar proceedings involving any

Transaction Party or a “workout” of the Obligations. The agreements in this Section 9.14 shall survive payment of all other Obligations.

9.15 Telephonic Instruction. Any agreement of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders herein to receive certain notices by telephone is solely for the convenience and at the request of the Borrower. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to reasonably rely on the authority of any Person purporting to be a Person authorized by the Borrower to give such notice and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall not have any liability to the Borrower or other Person on account of any action taken or not taken by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders in reliance upon such telephonic notice. The obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loan shall not be affected in any way or to any extent by any failure by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to receive written confirmation of any telephonic notice or the receipt by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders of a confirmation which is at variance with the terms understood by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to be contained in the telephonic notice.

9.16 Marshalling Payments Set Aside. Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Lenders shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any of the Borrower Parties or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that any of the Borrower Parties makes a payment or payments to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, or the Administrative Agent or the Lenders enforce their Liens or exercise their rights of set-off, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or set- off or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party in connection with any insolvency proceeding, or otherwise, then (1) to the extent of such recovery the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or set-off had not occurred, and (2) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its ratable share of the total amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent.

9.17 Set-off. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, if an Event of Default exists, each Lender is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to the Borrower Parties, any such notice being waived by the Borrower Parties to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply in favor of the Lenders any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held by, and other indebtedness at any time owing to, such Lender to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower Parties against any and all Obligations owing to the Lenders, now or hereafter existing, irrespective of whether or not the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall have made demand under this Agreement or any Loan Document and although such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to (i) notify the Borrower Parties and the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application and (ii) pay such amounts that are set-off to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Lenders.

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

9.19 No Third Parties Benefited. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are made and entered into for the sole protection and legal benefit of the Borrower Parties, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, and their permitted successors and assigns, and no other Person shall be a direct or indirect legal beneficiary of, or have any direct or indirect cause of action or claim in connection with, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.

9.20 Time. Time is of the essence as to each term or provision of this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents.

9.21 Reinstatement. This Agreement and the security interests created herein shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Borrower’s Obligations hereunder, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to bankruptcy, insolvency or other applicable laws, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by Administrative Agent or any Lender. In the event that any payment or any part thereof is so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, such Obligations and the security interests created herein shall continue to be effective or be reinstated (except to the extent the related collateral has been sold to a bona fide purchaser for value) and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.
