During the Availability Period, the Borrower shall be entitled to borrow, prepay and reborrow Revolving Loans in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement; provided, that the Borrower may not borrow or reborrow should there exist a Default or Event of Default.

(b) The Borrower’s obligation to pay the principal of, and interest on, Revolving Loans shall be evidenced by the records of the Lender and by the Revolving Credit Note. The entries made in such records and/or on the schedule annexed to the Revolving Credit Note shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrower therein recorded; provided, that the failure or delay of the Lender in maintaining or making entries into any such record or on such schedule or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Revolving Loans (both principal and unpaid accrued interest) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

Section 2.2. Procedure for Revolving Loans. The Borrower shall give the Lender written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of each Revolving Loan substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.2 (a “Notice of Borrowing”) prior to 11:00 a.m. two (2) Business Days prior to which a Revolving Loan is being requested. Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable and shall specify: (i) the principal amount of the Revolving Loan, (ii) the proposed date of the Revolving Loan (which shall be a Business Day), and (iii) if the Revolving Loan is $2,500,000 or greater, its purpose (provided in sufficient detail that is reasonably satisfactory to the Lender). The aggregate principal amount of each Revolving Loan shall be not less than $1,000,000 or a larger multiple of $500,000, or in such lesser amounts equal to the

amount of the unused Revolving Commitment. Upon the satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III hereof, the Lender will make the proceeds of each Revolving Loan available to the Borrower at the Payment Office on the date specified in the applicable Notice of Borrowing by crediting an account maintained by the Borrower with the Lender or at the Borrower’s option, by effecting a wire transfer of such amount to an account designated by the Borrower to the Lender.

Section 2.3. Optional Reduction and Termination and/or Extension of Revolving Commitment.

(a) The Revolving Commitment shall terminate on the Commitment Termination Date; provided, that the Commitment Termination Date may be extended by the Lender for additional 364-day periods in its sole discretion upon receiving a written request from the Borrower not earlier than 60 days and not later than 45 days prior to then existing Commitment Termination Date for an extension. Upon the receipt of such request, the Lender shall use its best efforts to notify the Borrower not later than 30 days prior to any Commitment Termination Date whether it will extend the then existing Commitment Termination Date for an additional 364-day period; provided, that the failure of the Lender to give any such notice to the Borrower shall mean that the then existing Commitment Termination Date will not be so extended.

(b) Upon at least two (2) Business Days’ prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) to the Lender (which notice shall be irrevocable), the Borrower may reduce the Revolving Commitment in part or terminate the Revolving Commitment in whole; provided, that (i) any partial reduction pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall be in an amount of at least $500,000 and any larger multiple of $100,000 and (ii) no such reduction shall be permitted which would reduce the Revolving Commitment (after giving effect thereto and any concurrent prepayments made under Section 2.4) to an amount less than the outstanding Revolving Loans.

Section 2.4. Repayment and Prepayments of Revolving Loans.

(a) The outstanding principal amount of all Revolving Loans shall be due and payable (together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon) on the Commitment Termination Date.

(b) The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Eurodollar Loan, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, subject to Section 2.12 hereof. Each partial prepayment shall be in an amount not less than $100,000 and integral multiples thereof.

(c) Subject to Sections 2.8 and 2.9, each Eurodollar Loan shall automatically continue on the last day of an Interest Period for another one-month Interest Period unless the Borrower elects to repay in whole or in part such Eurodollar Loan on the last day of such Interest Period. In the case of a partial repayment, such Eurodollar Loan shall be continued for another one-month Interest Period in the principal amount designated by the Borrower, subject to the minimum amounts specified in Section 2.2.

Section 2.5. Interest on Loans.

(a) The Borrower shall pay interest on each Eurodollar Loan at LIBOR, plus 1.25% per annum. If a Base Rate Loan shall be outstanding under the circumstances set forth in Section 2.8 or 2.9, then the Borrower shall pay interest on each Base Rate Loan at the Base Rate in effect from time to time.

(b) While an Event of Default exists or after acceleration, at the option of the Lender, the Borrower shall pay interest (“Default Interest”) with respect to all Eurodollar Loans at the rate otherwise applicable for the then-current Interest Period plus an additional 2% per annum until the last day of such

Interest Period, and thereafter, and with respect to all Base Rate Loans and all other Obligations hereunder (other than Loans), at the Base Rate, plus 2% per annum.

(c) Interest on the principal amount of all Revolving Loans shall accrue from and including the date such Revolving Loans are made to but excluding the date of any repayment thereof. Interest on all outstanding Eurodollar Loans shall be payable on the last day of each Interest Period applicable thereto and on the Commitment Termination Date. Interest on any Base Rate Loans shall be payable on the last day of each calendar month and on the Commitment Termination Date. All Default Interest shall be payable on demand.

(d) The Lender shall determine each interest rate applicable to the Revolving Loans hereunder and shall promptly notify the Borrower of such rate in writing (or by telephone, promptly confirmed in writing). Any such determination shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

Section 2.6. Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue at 0.10% p. a. on the daily amount of the unused Revolving Commitment during the Availability Period. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable in arrears on the last day of each March, June, September and December of each year and on the Commitment Termination Date, commencing on the first such date after the Closing Date.

Section 2.7. Computation of Interest and Fees. All computations of interest and fees hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or fees are payable (to the extent computed on the basis of days elapsed). Each determination by the Lender of an interest amount or fee hereunder shall be made in good faith and, except for manifest error, shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes.

Section 2.8. Inability to Determine Interest Rates. If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for any Eurodollar Loan, the Lender shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower) that (a) by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant interbank market, adequate means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR, or (b) LIBOR does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lender of making, funding or maintaining its Eurodollar Loans, the Lender shall give written notice (or telephonic notice, promptly confirmed in writing) to the Borrower as soon as practicable thereafter. Until the Lender notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (x) the obligation of the Lender to make Eurodollar Loans or to continue outstanding Revolving Loans as Eurodollar Loans shall be suspended and (y) all such affected Eurodollar Loans shall be converted into Base Rate Loans on the last day of the then current Interest Period unless the Borrower elects to prepay such Revolving Loans in accordance with this Agreement.

Section 2.9. Illegality. If any Change in Law shall make it unlawful or impossible for the Lender to make, maintain or fund any Eurodollar Loan, the Lender shall promptly give notice thereof to the Borrower, whereupon until the Lender notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the obligation of the Lender to make Eurodollar Loans, or to continue any outstanding Revolving Loans as Eurodollar Loans, shall be suspended. Any new Revolving Loan shall be made as a Base Rate Loan and all then outstanding Eurodollar Loans shall be converted to a Base Rate Loan either (x) on the last day of the then current Interest Period if the Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Loans to such date or (y) immediately if the Lender shall determine that it may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Loans to such date.

Section 2.10. Increased Costs.

(a) If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement that is not otherwise included in the determination of LIBOR hereunder against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, the Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the calculation of LIBOR); or

(ii) impose on the Lender or the eurodollar interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or any Eurodollar Loans made by the Lender; and the result of the foregoing is to increase the cost to the Lender of making, continuing or maintaining a Eurodollar Loan or to reduce the amount received or receivable by the Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount), then the Borrower shall promptly pay, upon written notice from and demand by the Lender, within five Business Days after the date of such notice and demand, additional amount or amounts sufficient to compensate the Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) If the Lender shall have determined that on or after the date of this Agreement any Change in Law regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the Lender’s capital (or on the capital of the Lender’s parent corporation) as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which the Lender or the Lender’s parent corporation could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration the Lender’s policies or the policies of the Lender’s parent corporation with respect to capital adequacy) then, from time to time, within five (5) Business Days after receipt by the Borrower of written demand by the Lender, the Borrower shall pay to the Lender such additional amounts as will compensate the Lender or the Lender’s parent corporation for any such reduction suffered.

(c) A certificate of the Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate the Lender or its parent corporation, as the case may be, specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay the Lender such amount or amounts within 10 days after receipt thereof.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of the Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of the Lender’s right to demand such compensation.

Section 2.11. Payments Generally. The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees, or of amounts payable under Section 2.10 or otherwise) prior to 12:00 noon, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Lender, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Lender at its Payment Office. 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 made payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in Dollars.

Section 2.12. Funding Indemnity. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of a Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), or (b) the failure by the Borrower to borrow, prepay, or continue any Eurodollar Loan on the date specified in any applicable notice (regardless of whether such notice is withdrawn or revoked), then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate the Lender, within five (5) Business Days after written demand from the Lender, for any loss, cost or expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurodollar Loan, such loss, cost or expense shall be deemed to include an amount determined by the Lender to be the

excess, if any, of (A) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the principal amount of such Eurodollar Loan if such event had not occurred at LIBOR applicable to such Eurodollar Loan for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or in the case of a failure to borrow or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Eurodollar Loan) over (B) the amount of interest that would accrue on the principal amount of such Eurodollar Loan for the same period if LIBOR were set on the date such Eurodollar Loan was prepaid or converted or the date on which the Borrower failed to borrow or continue such Eurodollar Loan. A certificate as to any additional amount payable under this Section 2.12 submitted to the Borrower by the Lender shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

Each of the parties hereto irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

(d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to the service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.1. Nothing in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document will affect the right of any party hereto to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY).

Section 9.7. Right of Setoff. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, the Lender shall have the right, at any time or from time to time upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, without prior notice to the Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply against all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) of the Borrower at any time held or other obligations at any time owing by the Lender to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all Obligations held by the Lender, irrespective of whether the Lender shall have made demand hereunder and although such Obligations may be unmatured. The Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower after any such set-off and any application made by the Lender; provided, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

Section 9.8. Counterparts; Integration. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts (including by telecopy), and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and any separate letter agreement(s) relating to any fees payable to the Lender constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereto and thereto regarding the subject matters hereof and thereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, regarding such subject matters.

Section 9.9. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower herein and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Revolving Loans, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Revolving Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid and so long as the Revolving Commitment has not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.10 and 9.3 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Revolving Loans, the expiration or termination of the Revolving Commitment or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof. All representations and warranties made herein, in the certificates, reports, notices, and other documents delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the making of the Revolving Loans.

Section 9.10. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such illegality, invalidity or unenforceability without affecting the legality, validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof or thereof; and the illegality, invalidity or unenforceability of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 9.11. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Revolving Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which may be treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively, the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate of interest (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Revolving Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Revolving Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this

Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to the Lender in respect of other Revolving Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by the Lender.

Section 9.12. Patriot Act. The Lender hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Patriot Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow the Lender to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act. The Borrower shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, provide to the extent commercially reasonable, such information and take such other actions as are reasonably requested by the Lender in order to assist the Lender in maintaining compliance with the Patriot Act.
