any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain the L/C Issuer from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any law applicable to the L/C Issuer or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the L/C Issuer shall prohibit, or request that the L/C Issuer refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon the L/C Issuer with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which the L/C Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon the L/C Issuer any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which the L/C Issuer in good xxxxx xxxxx material to it;

(b)

the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate any laws or one or more policies of the L/C Issuer; or

(c)

a default of any Bank’s obligations to fund under subsection 2.4.1(f) exists or any Bank is at such time a Defaulting Bank hereunder, unless the L/C Issuer has entered into satisfactory arrangements with the Company or such Bank to eliminate the L/C Issuer’s risk with respect to such Bank.

Letters of Credit shall be issued only for drawing in United States Dollars. No Letters of Credit with automatic extension or reinstatement provisions shall be permitted.

Swing Line.

2.2.1

Swing Loans. Upon the Company’s request, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Swing Line Lender may, in its sole and absolute discretion, on and after the Closing Date and prior to the Maturity Date, provide to the Company a swing line credit facility (the “Swing Line”) of up to $25,000,000; provided that the Swing Line Lender shall not in any event be permitted to make any Loan under the Swing Line (each a “Swing Loan”) if, after giving effect thereto, (i) the sum of the Outstanding Amount of all Loans (including Swing Loans) plus the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations would exceed the Availability at such time, or (ii) the aggregate principal amount of all then-outstanding Swing Loans made by the Swing Line Lender would exceed the Swing Line Availability at such time. Within the limits of the Swing Line Availability, the Company may borrow under this subsection 2.2.1 prior to the Maturity Date, repay pursuant to subsections 2.2.3 or 2.2.4 and reborrow pursuant to this subsection 2.2.1 prior to the Maturity Date. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Section 2.2, the Swing Line Lender shall not at any time be obligated to make any Swing Loan. The Company shall not use the proceeds of any Swing Loan to refinance any outstanding Swing Loan.

2.2.2

Interest on Swing Loans. Notwithstanding the provisions of subsections 2.8.1 and 2.8.2, each Swing Loan outstanding under the Swing Line shall accrue interest at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable to a Base Rate Loan, which interest shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date and on the due date for Swing Loans set forth in subsection 2.2.3, and shall be payable to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender; provided that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each Swing Loan shall bear interest for a minimum of one (1) day.

2.2.3

Principal Payable on Swing Loans. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.7, the principal outstanding under the Swing Line shall be due and payable:

(a)

at or before 12:00 noon., San Francisco time, on the third Business Day immediately following any date on which a Swing Loan is made under the Swing Line; and

(b)

in any event on the Maturity Date;

provided that, if no Event of Default has occurred and remains uncured, and the Company is permitted to borrow Loans under the terms of this Agreement (the Availability being determined for such purpose without giving effect to any reduction thereof occasioned by such Swing Loans due and payable), at the time such Swing Loans are due, then unless the Company notifies the Swing Line Lender that it will repay such Swing Loans on their due date, the Company shall be deemed to have submitted a Borrowing Notice for Base Rate Loans in an amount necessary to repay such Swing Loans on their due date, and the provisions of Section 2.4 concerning (i) the minimum principal amounts required for Borrowings and (ii) the funding of requested Borrowings as Swing Loans shall not apply to Loans made pursuant to this subsection 2.2.3.

2.2.4

Prepayments of Swing Loans. Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection 2.7.1, the Company may, from time to time on any Business Day, make a voluntary prepayment, in whole or in part, of the outstanding principal amount of any Swing Loans, without incurring any premium or penalty; provided that:

(a)

each such voluntary prepayment shall require prior written notice given to the Administrative Agent and Swing Line Lender no later than 10:00 a.m., San Francisco time, on the day on which the Company intends to make a voluntary prepayment, and

(b)

each such voluntary prepayment shall be in a minimum amount of $250,000 (or, if less, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Swing Loans then outstanding).

2.2.5

Funding of Participations. Each Bank shall be deemed to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased a pro rata risk participation from the Swing Line Lender in the Swing Loans, without recourse or warranty, in an amount equal to such Bank’s Pro Rata Share of such Swing Loans. The Swing Line Lender shall be responsible for invoicing the Company for interest on the Swing Loans. Until each Bank funds its Base Rate Loan or risk participation pursuant to this Section 2.2 to refinance such Bank’s Pro Rata Share of any Swing Loan, interest in respect of such Pro Rata Share shall be solely for the account of the Swing Line Lender. From and after the date that any Bank funds such participation pursuant to this Section 2.2, such Bank shall, to the extent of its Pro Rata Share, be entitled to receive a ratable portion of any payment of principal and/or interest received by the Swing Line Lender on account of such Swing Loans, payable to such Bank promptly upon such receipt. If any payment received by the Swing Line Lender in respect of principal or interest on any Swing Loan is required to be returned by the Swing Line Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.6 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Swing Line Lender in its discretion), each Bank shall pay to the Swing Line Lender its Pro Rata Share thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate. The Administrative Agent will make such demand upon the request of the Swing Line Lender.

2.2.6

Refinancing of Swing Loans.

(a)

The Swing Line Lender at any time in its sole and absolute discretion may request, on behalf of the Company (which hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swing Line Lender to so request on its behalf), that each Bank make a Base Rate Loan in an amount equal to such Bank's Pro Rata Share of the amount of Swing Loans then outstanding. Such request shall be made in writing (which written request shall be deemed to be a Borrowing Notice issued under Section 2.4 for purposes hereof) and in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.4, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified therein for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the unutilized portion of the Commitments and the conditions set forth in Section 4.3. The Swing Line Lender shall furnish the Company with a copy of the applicable Borrowing Notice promptly after delivering such Borrowing Notice to the Administrative Agent. Each Bank shall make an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the amount specified in such Borrowing Notice available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds for the account of the Swing Line Lender at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later than 1:00 p.m. on the day specified in such Borrowing Notice (which shall be no less than one (1) Business Day after delivery of such Borrowing Notice) subject to subsection 2.2.6(b). Each Bank that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Loan to the Company in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the Swing Line Lender.

(b)

If for any reason any Swing Loan cannot be refinanced by such a Borrowing in accordance with subsection 2.2.6(a), the request for Base Rate Loans submitted by the Swing Line Lender as set forth herein shall be deemed to be a request by the Swing Line Lender that each of the Banks fund its risk participation in the relevant Swing Loan and each Bank’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender pursuant to subsection 2.2.6(a) shall be deemed payment in respect of such participation.

(c)

If any Bank fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender any amount required to be paid by such Bank pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this subsection 2.2.6 by the time specified in subsection 2.2.6(a), the Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover from such Bank (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Swing Line Lender at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. A certificate of the Swing Line Lender submitted to any Bank (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this subsection 2.2.6(c) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d)

Each Bank’s obligation to make Loans or to purchase and fund risk participations in Swing Loans pursuant to this subsection 2.2.6 shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Bank may have against the Swing Line Lender, the Company or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (iii) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Bank’s obligation to make Loans pursuant to this subsection 2.2.6 is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.3. No such funding of risk participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Company to repay Swing Loans, together with interest as provided herein.

2.2.7

Termination of Swing Line. At any time during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Swing Line Lender may, without the Company’s consent, upon one (1) Business Day’s notice to the Company and the Banks, terminate the Swing Line and cause Base Rate Loans to be made by the Banks in an aggregate amount equal to the amount of principal and interest outstanding under the Swing Line (the Availability being determined for such purpose without giving effect to any reduction thereof occasioned by such Swing Loans), and the conditions precedent set forth in Section 2.4 and Section 4.3, and any requirement of Section 2.4 that a Borrowing be funded as a Swing Loan shall not apply to such Loans. The proceeds of such Loans shall be paid to the Swing Line Lender to retire the outstanding principal and interest owing under the Swing Line.

2.2.8

No Swing Loans Upon Default. The Swing Line Lender shall not, without the approval of all Banks, make a Swing Loan if the Swing Line Lender then has actual knowledge that a Default has occurred and is continuing.

2.3

Loan Accounts; Revolving Notes.

2.3.1

Loan Accounts. The Loans made by each Bank shall be evidenced by one or more loan accounts or records maintained by such Bank and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The loan accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Bank shall, absent manifest error, be conclusive of the amounts of the Loans made by the Banks to the Company and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure so to record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the Company’s obligations hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Loans.

2.3.2

Revolving Notes. The Loans made by each Bank shall be evidenced by a Revolving Note payable to the order of such Bank in an amount equal to such Bank’s Pro Rata Share of the Maximum Commitment Amount on the Closing Date. In addition, the Swing Loans made by the Swing Line Lender shall be evidenced by a Revolving Note payable to the order of the Swing Line Lender in the amount of $25,000,000. Such Bank may endorse on the schedule annexed to its Revolving Note(s) the date, amount and maturity of each Loan that it makes (which shall not include undrawn amounts on outstanding Letters of Credit, but shall include the amounts of any drawings on outstanding Letters of Credit), the purpose of the Loan, the amount of each payment of principal that the Company makes with respect thereto and the source of the funds from which each principal payment is made. The Company irrevocably authorizes each Bank to endorse its Revolving Note(s), and such Bank’s record shall be conclusive absent manifest error; provided, however, that any Bank’s failure to make, or its error in making, a notation thereon with respect to any Loan shall not limit or otherwise affect the Company’s obligations to such Bank hereunder or under its Revolving Note(s).

2.4

Procedure for Obtaining Credit. Each Borrowing shall be made and each Letter of Credit shall be issued upon the irrevocable written notice (including notice via facsimile confirmed immediately by a telephone call) of the Company in the form of a Borrowing Notice (which notice must be received by the Administrative Agent prior to 9:30 a.m., San Francisco time, (i) three (3) Business Days prior to the requested borrowing date, in the case of LIBOR Loans, or (ii) one (1) Business Day prior to the requested borrowing date, in the case of Base Rate Loans, or (iii) on the requested borrowing date, in the case of Swing Loans, or (iv) five (5) Business Days prior to the requested issuance date of a Letter of Credit), specifying:

(a)

the amount of the Borrowing or the Letter of Credit, which in the case of a Borrowing shall be in an aggregate principal amount of (i) $500,000 and increments of $50,000 in excess thereof for Base Rate Borrowings or Swing Loans, and (ii) $1,000,000 and increments of $100,000 in excess thereof for any LIBOR Borrowings;

(b)

the requested Borrowing or Letter of Credit issuance date, which shall be a Business Day;

(c)

in the case of a Borrowing, the Type of Loans comprising the Borrowing;

(d)

in the case of a LIBOR Borrowing, the duration of the Interest Period applicable to the Loans comprising such LIBOR Borrowing. If the Borrowing Notice fails to specify the duration of the Interest Period for the Loans comprising a LIBOR Borrowing, such Interest Period shall be thirty (30) days.

In addition to the foregoing, the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, the Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the L/C Issuer: (i) the documents to be presented by the beneficiary thereof in case of any drawing thereunder; (ii) the full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; and (iii) such other matters as the L/C Issuer may require. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the L/C Issuer (A) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (B) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (C) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (D) such other matters as the L/C Issuer may require. Additionally, the Company shall furnish to the L/C Issuer, and the Administrative Agent such other documents and information pertaining to such requested Letter of Credit issuance or amendment, including any Issuer Documents, as the L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent may require. Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, the L/C Issuer will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application from the Company and, if not, the L/C Issuer will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Unless the L/C Issuer has received written notice from any Bank, the Administrative Agent or the Company, at least one Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions contained in Section 4 shall not then be satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the L/C Issuer shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the Company (or the applicable Subsidiary) or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with the L/C Issuer’s usual and customary business practices. Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Bank shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the L/C Issuer a risk participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Bank’s Pro Rata Share times the amount of such Letter of Credit.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.4, any amount drawn under a Letter of Credit shall, from and after the date on which such drawing is made, constitute a Borrowing for all purposes under this Agreement (including accrual and payment of interest and repayment of principal) other than disbursement of Loan proceeds under this Section 2.4, and shall be subject to the provisions of subsection 2.4.1 hereof. Unless the Company’s Borrowing Notice expressly requests a LIBOR Borrowing, a Base Rate Borrowing in an amount in excess of the Swing Line Availability or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, each requested Borrowing shall initially be funded as a Swing Loan, and shall be subject to the provisions of Section 2.2. Unless the Majority Banks otherwise agree, during the existence of a Default or Event of Default, the Company may not elect to have a Loan made as, or converted into or continued as, a LIBOR Loan. After giving effect to any Loan, there shall not be more than six (6) different Interest Periods in effect.

1.1.1

Letter of Credit Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations.

(a)

Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer shall notify the Company and the Administrative Agent thereof. Not later than 11:00 a.m., San Francisco time, on the date of any payment by the L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit (each such date, an “Honor Date”), the Company shall reimburse the L/C Issuer through the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing. If the Company fails to so reimburse the L/C Issuer by such time, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Bank of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (the “Unreimbursed Amount”), and the amount of such Bank’s Pro Rata Share thereof. In such event, the Company shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans to be disbursed on the Honor Date in an amount equal to the Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.4 for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Commitments and the conditions set forth in Section 4.3 (other than the delivery of a Borrowing Notice). Any notice given by the L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this subsection 2.4.1(a) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

(b)

Each Bank shall upon any notice pursuant to subsection 2.4.1(a) make funds available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer, at the Administrative Agent’s Office in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 1:00 p.m., San Francisco time, on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent (which day shall be at least one (1) Business Day after delivery of such notice), whereupon, subject to the provisions of subsection 2.4.1(c), each Bank that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Loan to the Company in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the L/C Issuer.

(c)

With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans because the conditions set forth in Section 4.3 cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, the Company shall be deemed to have incurred from the L/C Issuer, an L/C Borrowing in the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount that is not so refinanced, which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the rate set forth in subsection 2.8.3. In such event, each Bank’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer pursuant to subsection 2.4.1(b) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such Bank in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this subsection 2.4.1.

(d)

Until each Bank funds its Loan or L/C Advance pursuant to this subsection 2.4.1 to reimburse the L/C Issuer for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Bank’s Pro Rata Share of such amount shall be solely for the account of the L/C Issuer.

(e)

Each Bank’s obligation to make Loans or L/C Advances to reimburse the L/C Issuer, for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this subsection 2.4.1, shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Bank may have against the L/C Issuer, the Company or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default (subject to the proviso hereto), or (iii) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Bank’s obligation to make Loans pursuant to this subsection 2.4.1 is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.3 (other than delivery by the Company of a Borrowing Notice). No such making of an L/C Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Company to reimburse the L/C Issuer for the amount of any payment made by the L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein.

(f)

If any Bank fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer any amount required to be paid by such Bank pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this subsection 2.4.1 by the time specified in subsection 2.4.1(b), the L/C Issuer, shall be entitled to recover from such Bank (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the L/C Issuer at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. A certificate of the L/C Issuer submitted to any Bank (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this subsection 2.4.1(f) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

1.1.2

Repayment of Participations.

(a)

At any time after the L/C Issuer has made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any Bank such Bank’s L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with subsection 2.4.1, if the Administrative Agent receives for the account of the L/C Issuer any payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed Amount or interest thereon (whether directly from the Company or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent will distribute to such Bank its Pro Rata Share thereof (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Bank’s L/C Advance was outstanding) in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent.

(b)

If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer pursuant to subsection 2.4.1(a) is required to be returned under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.6 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the L/C Issuer, in its discretion), each Bank shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer its Pro Rata Share thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Bank, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect.

1.1.3

Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the Company to reimburse the L/C Issuer, for each drawing under each Letter of Credit and to repay each L/C Borrowing shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following:

(a)

any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other Loan Document;

(b)

the existence of any claim, counterclaim, set-off, defense or other right that the Company or any Subsidiary may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the L/C Issuer, or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction;

(c)

any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such Letter of Credit;

(d)

any payment by the L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment made by the L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any insolvency or bankruptcy law; or

(e)

any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Company or any Subsidiary.

The Company shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with the Company’s instructions or other irregularity, the Company will immediately notify the L/C Issuer. The Company shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against the L/C Issuer and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid.

1.1.4

Role of Letter of Credit Issuer. Each Bank and the Company agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the L/C Issuer, any Agent-Related Person nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of the L/C Issuer shall be liable to any Bank for (a) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Banks or the Majority Banks, as applicable; (b) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (c) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Letter of Credit Application. The Company hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Company’s pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. None of the L/C Issuer, any Agent-Related Person, nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of the L/C Issuer shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (a) through (e) of subsection 2.4.3; provided, however, that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company may have a claim against the L/C Issuer, and the L/C Issuer may be liable to the Company, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by the Company which the Company proves were caused by the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the L/C Issuer or the willful failure of the L/C Issuer to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the L/C Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and the L/C Issuer shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason.

1.1.5

Cash Collateral. Upon the request of the Administrative Agent, (a) if the L/C Issuer has honored any full or partial drawing request under any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in an L/C Borrowing, or (b) if, as of the Letter of Credit expiration date, any Letter of Credit for any reason remains outstanding and partially or wholly undrawn, the Company shall immediately Cash Collateralize the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit plus the aggregate of all Unreimbursed Amounts (determined as of the date of such L/C Borrowing or the Letter of Credit expiration date, as the case may be). Sections 2.7.2 and 8.2.3 set forth certain additional requirements to deliver Cash Collateral hereunder. “Cash Collateralize” means to pledge and deposit with or deliver to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the L/C Issuer and the Banks, as collateral for the L/C Obligations, cash or deposit account balances pursuant to documentation in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer (which documents are hereby consented to by the Bank). Derivatives of such term have corresponding meanings. The Company hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the L/C Issuer and the Banks, a security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein and all proceeds of the foregoing. Cash Collateral shall be maintained in blocked, non-interest bearing deposit accounts at Bank of America.

1.1.6

Conflict with Issuer Documents. In the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of the Letter of Credit Application, the terms hereof shall control.

1.1.7

Letters of Credit Issued for Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, a Subsidiary, the Company shall be obligated to reimburse the L/C Issuer hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit. The Company hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of the Company, and that the Company’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Subsidiaries.

1.2

Conversion and Continuation Elections.

1.2.1

Elections to Convert and Renew. The Company may, upon irrevocable written notice to the Administrative Agent in accordance with subsection 2.5.2:

(a)

provided, that if the aggregate amount of LIBOR Loans in respect of any Borrowing shall have been reduced, by payment, prepayment or conversion of part thereof, to less than $1,000,000, such LIBOR Loans shall automatically convert into Base Rate Loans, and on and after such date the right of the Company to continue such Loans as, and convert such Loans into, LIBOR Loans shall terminate.

1.2.2

Notice of Conversion/Continuation. The Company shall deliver by telex, cable or facsimile, confirmed immediately in writing, a Notice of Conversion/Continuation (which notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 9:30 a.m. San Francisco time, (i) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the Conversion Date or continuation date, if the Loans are to be converted into or continued as LIBOR Loans, or (ii) on the Conversion Date, if the Loans are to be converted into Base Rate Loans) specifying:

(a)

the proposed Conversion Date or continuation date;

(b)

the aggregate amount of Loans to be converted or continued;

(c)

the nature of the proposed conversion or continuation; and

(d)

if the Company elects to convert a Base Rate Loan into a LIBOR Loan or elects to continue a LIBOR Loan, the duration of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan. If the Conversion/Continuation Notice fails to specify the duration of the Interest Period for a LIBOR Loan, such Interest Period shall be thirty (30) days.

1.2.3

Failure to Select New Interest Period. If upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to LIBOR Loans the Company has failed to select a new Interest Period to be applicable to LIBOR Loans, or if any Default or Event of Default shall then exist, the Company shall be deemed to have elected to convert LIBOR Loans into Base Rate Loans effective as of the expiration date of such current Interest Period.

1.2.4

Number of Interest Period. Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Agreement, after giving effect to any conversion or continuation of any Loans, there shall not be more than six (6) different Interest Periods in effect.

1.3

Voluntary Termination or Reduction of Commitment. The Company may, upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, terminate the Banks’ commitment to make Loans to the Company or issue Letters of Credit for the Company’s account, or permanently reduce the Maximum Commitment Amount by a minimum amount of $1,000,000 or any multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, unless, after giving effect thereto and to any prepayments of Loans made on the effective date thereof, the sum of the aggregate principal amount of (i) the Outstanding Amount of Loans and (ii) the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations would exceed the Availability. Once reduced in accordance with this Section 2.6, the Maximum Commitment Amount may not be increased. Any reduction of the commitment amounts shall be applied to each Bank according to its Pro Rata Share. No commitment or extension fees paid prior to the effective date of any reduction of the Maximum Commitment Amount or termination of the Banks’ commitment to make Loans to the Company or issue Letters of Credit for the Company’s account shall be refunded.

1.4

Principal Payments.

1.4.1

Optional Repayments. Subject to the provisions of Section 3.4, the Company may, at any time or from time to time, upon at least one (1) Business Day’s prior written notice to the Administrative Agent with respect to any Base Rate Loan, or upon at least three (3) Business Day’s prior written notice to the Administrative Agent with respect to any LIBOR Loan, ratably prepay Loans other than Swing Loans in part in an amount not less than $500,000 for Base Rate Loans or $1,000,000 for LIBOR Loans; provided, however, that subject to the provisions of Sections 2.6 and 2.13, the Company shall not repay the Loans other than Swing Loans in full prior to the Maturity Date, and there shall be deemed outstanding at all times prior to the Maturity Date principal in the amount of at least $10 to the extent necessary to maintain the liens granted in the Collateral Documents. Such notice of prepayment shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and the Type(s) of Loans to be repaid. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Bank of its receipt of any such notice, and of such Bank’s Pro Rata Share of such prepayment. If the Company gives a prepayment notice to the Administrative Agent, such notice is irrevocable and the prepayment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, together with accrued interest to such date on the amount prepaid, if required by the Administrative Agent, and all amounts required to be paid pursuant to Section 3.4.

1.4.2

Mandatory Repayments.

(a)

Availability Limit. Should the Outstanding Amount of Loans plus the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations at any time exceed the Availability, the Company shall immediately repay such excess to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Banks and/or deliver to Administrative Agent Cash Collateral pursuant to subsection 2.4.5 hereof, in the amount of the excess of the outstanding but undrawn Letters of Credit over the Availability.

(b)

Approved Parcel Dispositions. If the Company or any Guarantor shall at any time or from time to time agree to enter into a Disposition, or shall suffer an Event of Loss in which the anticipated Net Proceeds exceed $250,000, then (i) the Company shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such proposed Disposition or such Event of Loss (including the amount of the estimated Net Proceeds to be received by the Company or its Subsidiary in respect thereof) and (ii) promptly upon receipt by the Company or such Guarantor of the Net Proceeds of such Disposition or Event of Loss, the Company shall ratably repay the Loans in an aggregate amount equal to the Release Price, in the case of a Disposition, or the amount of such Net Proceeds, in the case of an Event of Loss; provided, however, that if any Disposition would cause the number of Approved Parcels to be less than seven (7), the Company shall repay the principal amount of all outstanding Loans, together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon and all other amounts then owing under this Agreement, upon the closing of such Disposition.

(c)

Application of Repayments. Any repayments pursuant to this subsection 2.7.2 shall be (i) subject to Section 3.4, and (ii) applied first to any Base Rate Loans then outstanding and then to LIBOR Loans with the shortest Interest Periods remaining. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this subsection 2.7.2, but subject to the provisions of Section 2.6, there shall be deemed outstanding on the Loans other than Swing Loans at all times prior to the Maturity Date principal in the amount of at least $10 to the extent necessary to maintain the liens granted in the Collateral Documents.

1.4.3

Repayment at Maturity. The Company shall repay the principal amount of all outstanding Loans on the Maturity Date or, if earlier, upon termination of the Banks’ Commitments pursuant to Section 2.6.

1.5

Interest.

1.5.1

Accrual Rate. Subject to the provisions of subsection 2.8.3, each Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the date when made (which, in the case of a drawing on a Letter of Credit, is the date of such drawing) until it becomes due at a rate per annum equal to LIBOR or the Base Rate, as the case may be, plus the Applicable Margin.

1.5.2

Payment. Interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date. Interest shall also be payable on the date of any repayment of Loans pursuant to subsections 2.7.1 or 2.7.2 for the portion of the Loans so repaid, if required by the Administrative Agent, and upon payment (including prepayment) of the Loan in full. During the existence of any Event of Default, interest shall be payable on demand.

1.5.3

Default Interest. Commencing (a) ten (10) Business Days after the occurrence of any Event of Default under subsection 8.1.3 or (b) upon the occurrence of any other Event of Default, and continuing thereafter while such Event of Default remains uncured, or after maturity or acceleration, the Company shall pay interest (after as well as before entry of judgment thereon to the extent permitted by law) on the principal amount of all Obligations due and unpaid, at a rate per annum which is determined by adding 3.00% per annum to the Applicable Margin then in effect for such Loans and, in the case of Obligations not subject to an Applicable Margin, at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus 3.00%; provided, however, that on and after the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to any LIBOR Loan outstanding on the date of occurrence of such Event of Default or acceleration, the principal amount of such Loan shall, during the continuation of such Event of Default or after acceleration, bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus 3.00%.

1.5.4

Maximum Legal Rate. Notwithstanding any contrary provision this Agreement, the Company’s obligations to any Bank hereunder shall be subject to the limitation that payments of interest shall not be required, for any period for which interest is computed hereunder, to the extent (but only to the extent) that such Bank’s contracting for or receiving such payment would be contrary to the provisions of any law applicable to such Bank limiting the highest rate of interest that such Bank may lawfully contract for, charge or receive, and in such event the Company shall pay such Bank interest at the highest rate permitted by applicable law.

1.6

Fees.

1.6.1

Unused Fee. The Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Banks (based on the allocations set forth below or such other allocations as may be agreed to by or among the Banks, or any of them, in writing from time to time), an unused commitment fee equal to (a) 0.25% times the actual daily amount by which the Maximum Commitment Amount exceeds the sum of the Outstanding Amount of Loans plus the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations hereunder, if the weighted average principal amount of Loans and undrawn Letters of Credit outstanding hereunder during such calendar quarter is less than fifty percent (50%) of the weighted average Maximum Commitment Amount during such calendar quarter, or (b) 0.15% times the actual daily amount by which the Maximum Commitment Amount exceeds the sum of the Outstanding Amount of Loans plus the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations, if the weighted average principal amount of Loans and undrawn Letters of Credit outstanding hereunder during such calendar quarter is greater than or equal to fifty percent (50%) of the weighted average Maximum Commitment Amount during such calendar quarter, in each case measured quarterly and payable quarterly in arrears on each October 1, January 1, April 1, July 1, and commencing July 1, 2004 (for the calendar quarter ending June 30, 2004).

1.6.2

Letter of Credit Fees. The Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Bank in accordance with its Pro Rata Share, a Letter of Credit Fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) equal to the Applicable Margin for LIBOR Loans times the daily maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit (whether or not such maximum amount is then in effect under such Letter of Credit). The Letter of Credit Fees shall be (a) computed on a quarterly basis in arrears and (b) be due and payable quarterly in arrears on each October 1, January 1, April 1 and July 1, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit expiration date and thereafter on demand. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, while any Event of Default exists, all Letter of Credit Fees shall accrue at the rate equal to the Applicable Margin for LIBOR Loans plus 3.00%.

1.6.3

Fronting Fee and Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to the L/C Issuer. The Company shall pay directly to the L/C Issuer, for its own account, a per annum fronting fee with respect to each Letter of Credit in the amount equal to 12.50 basis points multiplied by the maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit (whether or not such maximum amount is then in effect under such Letter of Credit). Such fronting fee shall be paid annually in advance, on the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit, and on each annual anniversary thereafter. In addition, the Company shall pay directly to the L/C Issuer for its own account (a) an annual administrative fee of either $1,500 or $3,500 per Letter of Credit, which administrative fee shall be due upon the issuance, renewal or amendment of any Letter of Credit and on each yearly anniversary thereof (the $3,500 fee shall be paid upon a determination made by the L/C Issuer, in its sole discretion, that the Letter of Credit is complex or requires special handling or other significant involvement of the L/C Issuer), and (b) the other customary issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of the L/C Issuer relating to letters of credit as from time to time in effect. Such customary fees and standard costs and charges are due and payable on demand and are nonrefundable.

1.6.4

Other Fees. In addition, the Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account or for the account of the Banks, as applicable, such fees as required by the letter agreement of even date herewith (the “Fee Letter”) between the Company and the Administrative Agent.

1.7

Computation of Fees and Interest. All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans when the Base Rate is determined by Bank of America’s “prime rate” shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of interest and fees under this Agreement shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed, which results in more interest or fees being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year. Interest and fees shall accrue during each period during which interest or such fees are computed from the first day thereof to the last day thereof. Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a change in the Base Rate shall become effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change in the Base Rate becomes effective. Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on the Company and the Banks in the absence of manifest error.

1.8

Payments by the Company.

(a)

All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Company on account of principal, interest, fees and other amounts required hereunder shall be made without set off or counterclaim and shall, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, be made to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Banks at the Administrative Agent’s Payment Office, in dollars and in immediately available funds, no later than 12:00 noon, San Francisco time on the date specified herein. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Bank its Pro Rata Share (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received. Any payment received by the Administrative Agent later than 12:00 noon, San Francisco time shall be deemed to have been received on the immediately succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue.

(b)

Subject to the provisions set forth in the definition of the term “Interest Period,” whenever any payment hereunder is stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or fees, as the case may be.

(c)

Unless the Administrative Agent receives notice from the Company prior to the date on which any payment is due and payable to the Banks that the Company will not make such payment in full as and when required, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Company has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date in immediately available funds and the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be so required), in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to each Bank on such date an amount equal to the amount then due and payable to such Bank. If and to the extent the Company has not made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each Bank shall repay to the Administrative Agent on demand the amount distributed to such Bank, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Bank until the date repaid.

1.9

Payments by the Banks to the Administrative Agent.

(a)

With respect to any Borrowing, unless the Administrative Agent receives notice from a Bank at least one (1) Business Day prior to the date of such Borrowing, that such Bank will not make available to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Company, the amount of that Bank’s Pro Rata Share of the Borrowing as and when required hereunder, the Administrative Agent may assume that each Bank has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds on the Borrowing date and the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be so required), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Company on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent any Bank shall not have made its full amount available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds and the Administrative Agent in such circumstances has made available to the Company such amount, that Bank shall, on the Business Day following such Borrowing date, make such amount available to the Administrative Agent, together with interest at the Federal Funds Rate for each day during such period. A notice of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Bank with respect to amounts owing under this Section 2.12 shall be conclusive absent manifest error. If such amount is so made available, such payment to the Administrative Agent shall constitute such Bank’s Loan on the date of Borrowing for all purposes of this Agreement. If such amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent on the Business Day following the Borrowing date, the Administrative Agent will notify the Company of such failure to fund and, upon demand by the Administrative Agent, the Company shall pay such amount to the Administrative Agent for the Administrative Agent’s account, together with interest thereon for each day elapsed since the date of such Borrowing, at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable at the time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Bank from its obligation to fulfill its Commitment or to prejudice any rights which the Administrative Agent or the Company may have against any Bank as a result of any default by such Bank hereunder.

(b)

The failure of any Bank to make any Loan on any Borrowing Date shall not relieve any other Bank of any obligation hereunder to make a Loan on such Borrowing Date, but no Bank shall be responsible for the failure of any other Bank to make the Loan to be made by such other Bank on any borrowing date.

1.10

Sharing of Payments, Etc. If, other than as expressly provided elsewhere herein, any Bank shall obtain on account of the Obligations owing to it any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, or otherwise) in excess of its ratable share (or other share contemplated hereunder), such Bank shall immediately (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase from the other Banks such participations in the Loans made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Bank to share the excess payment pro rata with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Bank, such purchase shall to that extent be rescinded, and each other Bank shall repay to the purchasing Bank the purchase price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying Bank’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such paying 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 Company agrees that any Bank so purchasing a participation from another Bank may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (other than the right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Bank were the direct creditor of the Company in the amount of such participation. The Administrative Agent will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations purchased under this Section and will in each case notify the Banks following any such purchases or repayments.

1.11

Security; Appraisal of Approved Parcels.

(a)

All obligations of the Company under this Agreement, the Revolving Notes and all other Loan Documents shall be secured in accordance with the Collateral Documents.

(b)

Notwithstanding any contrary provision of Section 4.1, the Administrative Agent and each Bank acknowledges that, as of the date of this Agreement, each of the Parcels identified on Exhibit E is an Approved Parcel having the Appraised Value set forth therein.

(c)

In the event the quarterly operating statements and rent rolls delivered to the Banks pursuant to subsection 6.1(c) show that either:

(i)

less than eighty-five percent (85%) of the net rentable area of the improvements on the Approved Parcels, in the aggregate, are leased to, and are occupied by, paying tenants under signed leases; or

(ii)

less than seventy-five percent (75%) of the net rentable area of the improvements on any Approved Parcel are leased to, and are occupied by, paying tenants under signed leases (provided that, if the test under clause (i) is met, then a maximum of twenty percent (20%) of the net rentable area of the Approved Parcels, in the aggregate, may be comprised of real Property with less than such seventy-five percent (75%) occupancy);

any Bank may submit a written request (a “Reduction Request”) to the Administrative Agent that the Approved Parcel Value be reduced to $0 for a sufficient number of Approved Parcels such that each of the tests indicated in clauses (i) and (ii) above are met. The Administrative Agent shall provide each Bank with written notice of the Reduction Request and shall request each Bank’s written consent to such Reduction Request. Any reduction of the Approved Parcel Value for any of the Approved Parcels pursuant to this subsection 2.14(c) shall require the consent of the Majority Banks. Upon the reduction of the Approved Parcel Value for any of the Approved Parcels pursuant to this subsection 2.14(c), the Borrowing Base and the Availability shall be recomputed taking account of such reduction. The Company may, at any time, request that the Approved Parcel Value any of the Approved Parcels that has been reduced pursuant to this subsection 2.14(c) be redetermined by providing the Banks with (A) a certified rent roll showing that the tests under clauses (i) and (ii) above have been met, and (B) an operating statement for the applicable Approved Parcel(s) as of the most recent calendar month, and, following receipt of such certified rent roll and operating statement, the Approved Parcel Value shall automatically be redetermined for the applicable Approved Parcel(s) based on the operating statement delivered with the certified rent roll and the Borrowing Base and the Availability shall be recomputed taking account of such increased Approved Parcel Value.

(d)

At any time and from time to time the Administrative Agent shall have the right to obtain a new Appraisal of any Approved Parcel; provided, however, that so long as no Event of Default has occurred and remains uncured, the Company shall pay the cost of only one such Appraisal of each Approved Parcel during any twenty-four (24) consecutive calendar month period. For each Approved Parcel, the Company may request in writing, not more often than once during any twelve (12) consecutive calendar month period, that the Administrative Agent obtain a new Appraisal of such Approved Parcel at the Company’s sole expense.

1.12

Release of Lien on Approved Parcel.

1.12.1

Release Conditions. The Administrative Agent shall reconvey and release its Lien on an Approved Parcel upon the Company’s satisfaction of all of the following conditions precedent:

(a)

The Company shall have submitted to the Administrative Agent a written request that the Administrative Agent reconvey and release its Lien on such Approved Parcel;

(b)

The Company shall have paid to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Banks, the lesser of (i) the Release Price for such Approved Parcel, or (ii) the then-outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Loans;

(c)

There shall have occurred no Default or Event of Default that remains uncured, and the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate to that effect signed by a Responsible Officer;

(d)

The Approved Parcel to be reconveyed constitutes a legally separable and transferable lot or parcel under all applicable laws, ordinances, rules and regulations relating to the subdivision or parceling of real property and the transfer thereof, and in addition, if the Approved Parcel to be reconveyed is part of a business or industrial park or other multi-building project ("Project"), there is a recorded reciprocal easement agreement, covenants, conditions and restrictions, and/or comparable document(s) in effect sufficient in the reasonable judgment of the Administrative Agent to ensure that (i) all necessary access rights, utility connections, parking rights, support easements, and similar rights are provided for the benefit of all other Approved Parcels that are also part of such Project but that are not being released, and (ii) enforceable agreements are in place for the ratable sharing of all related property costs associated with such matters and otherwise to ensure the lawful, proper and efficient operation, leasing, and management of any such unreleased Approved Parcels; and

(e)

Upon the Administrative Agent’s request, the Administrative Agent has been furnished, at the Company’s sole cost, with a CLTA form 111 indorsement or such other indorsements to any Title Policy as the Administrative Agent may require, assuring the Administrative Agent that the reconveyance will not result in the subordination of the lien of any Mortgage as to the remaining Approved Parcels to any other lien or claim affecting any such Approved Parcels.

The foregoing conditions precedent are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Banks, and may be waived in a writing signed by the Administrative Agent, with the consent of the Majority Banks, and in no other manner.

1.12.2

Application of Release Price. The Release Price of each Approved Parcel shall be applied, in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion, first to any amounts due hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, other than interest or principal then due and payable, then to interest then due, and then to the prepayment of principal (first to any Base Rate Loans then outstanding and then to LIBOR Loans with the shortest Interest Periods remaining).

1.12.3

Release of Subsidiary Guarantor. Upon the reconveyance and release of the Administrative Agent’s Lien on an Approved Parcel pursuant to subsection 2.15.1, if the owner of such Approved Parcel is a Subsidiary of the Company, and provided that each of the release conditions set forth in subsection 2.15.1 have been met, the Administrative Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Banks, shall release such Subsidiary from its obligations under its Guaranty if (i) such Guarantor is not, or no longer qualifies as, a Material Subsidiary, and (ii) any real Property owned by such Subsidiary no longer qualifies as, or is removed as, an Approved Parcel in a transaction permitted under this Agreement and as a consequence thereof such Subsidiary no longer owns an Approved Parcel; provided that in the case of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall release such Subsidiary from its obligations under its Guaranty only if the Administrative Agent is satisfied that: (i) no Default or Event of Default exists; and (ii) the Outstanding Amount of Loans plus the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations do not exceed the Availability; and (iii) the Company has delivered to the Administrative Agent a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Company, certifying as to the matters set forth in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii). Upon the release of the Guaranty as provided in this subsection 2.15.3, any real Property owned by such Subsidiary shall not constitute an Approved Parcel and shall not be included in the Borrowing Base.

1.13

Tenant Documents. The Company shall deliver to the Administrative Agent (or cause any Subsidiary of the Company to deliver to the Administrative Agent), within sixty (60) days after the recording of a Mortgage encumbering a Parcel for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Banks: (a) estoppel certificates (“Estoppel Certificates”) and/or subordination, nondisturbance and attornment agreements (“SNDAs”), as required by the Administrative Agent, in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, executed by each tenant whose lease covers at least twenty-five percent (25%) of the net rentable area of the improvements located on such Parcel; and (b) Estoppel Certificates and/or SNDAs, ), as required by and in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, executed by such additional tenants as the Administrative Agent, by written notice to the Company prior to the recording of the Mortgage encumbering such Parcel, may require. In the event that the Company fails to deliver such Estoppel Certificates or SNDAs to the Administrative Agent within such sixty (60) day period, such Parcel shall, at the option of the Majority Banks exercised by written notice from the Administrative Agent to the Company within sixty (60) days after the expiration of the sixty (60)-day period within which the Company is required to comply with the provisions of this Section 2.16, cease to be an Approved Parcel. Upon such written notice from the Administrative Agent, the Availability shall be adjusted to reflect such change and the Company shall repay to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Banks, within thirty (30) days after such written notice from the Administrative Agent, any amounts payable pursuant to subsection 2.7.2(a). The Banks shall be deemed to have waived their right to cause a Parcel to cease to be an Approved Parcel pursuant to this Section 2.16 if the Banks fail to act within sixty (60) days after the end of the period within which the Company is required to comply with the provisions of this Section 2.16.

On the Closing Date, certain tenants occupying improvements located on Parcels which have previously delivered SNDAs to the Banks in connection with the Existing Credit Agreement, will be executing new tenant Estoppel Certificates, satisfactory in form and substance to Administrative Agent, containing among other things reaffirmations of such existing SNDAs (such new Estoppel Certificates being the “Estoppel and Reaffirmation of SNDAs”). The Company hereby expressly acknowledges and consents to such reaffirmations, and agrees that any obligations and agreements of such tenants set forth in the reaffirmed SNDAs shall be given full effect in accordance with their terms.

1.14

Collateral Documents. If (a) any provision of any Collateral Document shall for any reason cease to be valid and binding on or enforceable against the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company party thereto, or the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company shall so state in writing or bring an action to limit its obligations or liabilities thereunder or (b) any Collateral Document shall for any reason (other than pursuant to the terms thereof) cease to create a valid security interest in the Collateral purported to be covered thereby or such security interest shall for any reason cease to be a perfected and first priority security interest subject only to Permitted Liens and Permitted Encumbrances, the Parcel encumbered by such Collateral Document shall, at the option of the Majority Banks, immediately cease to be an Approved Parcel, the Availability shall immediately be adjusted to reflect such change and the Company shall repay to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Banks, within thirty (30) days after notice from the Administrative Agent, any amounts payable pursuant to subsection 2.7.2(a).

1.15

Increases and Decreases in Pro Rata Shares. Upon the Company’s satisfaction of all of the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 of this Agreement, each Bank whose Pro Rata Share of the combined Commitments of all of the Banks has increased, as evidenced by the difference for each Bank between the Pro Rata Share reflected in the Existing Credit Agreement and the Pro Rata Share reflected in this Agreement, shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for distribution to the Banks whose Pro Rata Shares of the combined Commitments of all of the Banks has decreased pursuant to this Agreement, an amount equal to the product of the increase in such Bank’s Pro Rata Share (expressed as a decimal) multiplied by the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans on the date of determination.

1.16

Increase in Maximum Commitment Amount.

(a)

Subject to the provisions of Section 2.6, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 2.19, the Company may, at any time and from time to time on or prior to the date that is 24 months after the Closing Date, by notice to the Administrative Agent, request an increase in the Maximum Commitment Amount by (i) permitting any Bank to increase its Commitment (and accordingly increase the Maximum Commitment Amount by such amount), or (ii) inviting any Eligible Assignee that has previously been approved by the Administrative Agent in writing to become a Bank under this Agreement and to provide a commitment to lend hereunder (and accordingly increase the Maximum Commitment Amount by such amount); provided, however, that in no event shall such actions cause the Maximum Commitment Amount to increase above $200,000,000.

(b)

Each of the Banks acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 10.1, (i) its consent to any such increase in the Maximum Commitment Amount shall not be required and (ii) Eligible Assignees may be added to this Agreement and any Bank may increase its Commitment without the consent or agreement of the other Banks (provided, however, that no Bank’s Commitment may be increased without such Bank’s consent), so long as the Administrative Agent and the Company have consented in writing to such Eligible Assignee or the increase in the Commitment of any of the Banks, as applicable.

(c)

The Administrative Agent shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to the Company’s request for an increase in the Maximum Commitment Amount under this Section 2.19 provided that the Company satisfies all of the following conditions precedent:

(i)

any Eligible Assignee must be acceptable to the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion;

(ii)

the Company and each such Bank or Eligible Assignee shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Company and such Bank or Eligible Assignee) supplemental signature pages to this Agreement and any Co-Lender Agreement among the Administrative Agent and the Banks relating to this Agreement, in the form of Exhibit I-1 attached hereto, in the case of a Bank, or in the form of Exhibit I-2 hereto in the case of an Eligible Assignee (each, a “Supplemental Signature Page”).

(iii)

the Company shall pay a fee for such increase which must be acceptable to the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion;

(iv)

the Administrative Agent shall have sent written notice of each such request by the Company to the Banks, together with notice of such Eligible Assignee’s Commitment or such Bank’s increased Commitment, as the case may be, and the effective date (the “Effective Date”) of such increase in the Maximum Commitment Amount as set forth in the Supplemental Signature Page; and

(v)

all requirements of this Section 2.19 must be satisfied.

(d)

Upon the Effective Date, and despite any contrary provision of this Agreement (a) each such Eligible Assignee shall become a party to this Agreement, and thereafter shall have all of the rights and obligations of a Bank hereunder, (b) each such Eligible Assignee or Bank shall simultaneously pay to the Administrative Agent, for distribution to the Banks whose Pro Rata Shares of the combined Commitments of all of the Banks has decreased as a result of the new Commitment of such Eligible Assignee or the increased Commitment of such Bank, an amount equal to the product of such Eligible Assignee’s Pro Rata Share (or the increase in such Bank’s Pro Rata Share), expressed as a decimal, multiplied by the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans on the date of determination, and (c) each such Eligible Assignee or Bank shall thereafter be obligated to make its Pro Rata Share of Borrowings to the Company and shall be obligated to participate in Letter of Credit risk participations and L/C Advances up to and including the amount of such Eligible Assignee’s or Bank’s Pro Rata Share of the increased Maximum Commitment Amount, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement.

(e)

Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Section 2.19, no increase in the Maximum Commitment Amount will be permitted unless (a) all then outstanding Loans constitute Base Rate Loans, or (b) the Interest Periods for all outstanding LIBOR Loans will expire (and any new Interest Periods for any such LIBOR Loans will commence) concurrently with the date on which any increase in the Maximum Commitment Amount becomes effective.

(f)

It shall be a condition precedent to the effectiveness of any increase in the Maximum Commitment Amount pursuant to Section 2.19(a) that the Administrative Agent shall have received from the title insurance company which has issued the Title Policy(ies) insuring the validity and priority of each Mortgage relating to any one or more Approved Parcels a CLTA form 108.10 indorsement, or other comparable indorsement reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, that (i) increases the aggregate liability under the Title Policy(ies) to the full increased Maximum Commitment Amount, and (ii) insures that the validity and priority of each such Mortgage will not be affected by such increase in the Maximum Commitment Amount, all at the Company’s sole cost and expense.

2.1

Taxes. If any taxes (other than taxes on a Bank’s net income) are at any time imposed on any payments under or in respect of this Agreement or any instrument or agreement required hereunder, including payments made pursuant to this Section 3.1, the Company shall pay all such taxes and shall also pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Bank, at the time interest is paid, all additional amounts which such Bank specifies as necessary to preserve the yield, after payment of such taxes, that such Bank would have received if such taxes had not been imposed.

2.2

Illegality.

(a)

If any Bank determines that (i) the introduction of any Requirement of Law, or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or administration thereof, has made it unlawful, or (ii) any central bank or other Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for such Bank or its applicable Lending Office to make LIBOR Loans, then, on notice thereof by such Bank to the Company and the Administrative Agent, the obligation of such Bank to make LIBOR Loans shall be suspended until such Bank shall have notified the Company and the Administrative Agent that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist.

(b)

If any Bank determines that it is unlawful to maintain any LIBOR Loan, the Company shall, upon its receipt of notice of such fact and demand from such Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay in full all LIBOR Loans of that Bank then outstanding, together with interest accrued thereon and any amounts required to be paid in connection therewith pursuant to Section 3.4, either on the last day of the Interest Period thereof, if such Bank may lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Bank may not lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Loans.

(c)

Notwithstanding any contrary provision of Section 2.1, if the Company is required to prepay any LIBOR Loan immediately as provided in subsection 3.2(b), then concurrently with such prepayment the Company shall borrow a Base Rate Loan from the affected Bank in the amount of such repayment.

(d)

If the obligation of any Bank to make or maintain LIBOR Loans has been terminated, the Company may elect, by giving notice to such Bank through the Administrative Agent, that all Loans which would otherwise be made by such Bank as LIBOR Loans shall instead be Base Rate Loans.

(e)

Before giving any notice to the Administrative Agent or the Company pursuant to this Section 3.2, the affected Bank shall designate a different Lending Office with respect to its LIBOR Loans if such designation would avoid the need for giving such notice or making such demand and would not, in the judgment of such Bank, be illegal or otherwise disadvantageous to such Bank.

2.3

Increased Costs and Reduction of Return.

(a)

If any Bank determines that, due to either (i) the introduction of, or any change (other than a change by way of imposition of, or increase in, reserve requirements contemplated in subsection 3.3(c)) in or in the interpretation of, any law or regulation or (ii) the compliance by such Bank (or its Lending Office) 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), there shall be any increase in the cost to such Bank of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any LIBOR Loans or issuing or participating in Letters of Credit, or a reduction in the amount received or receivable by such Bank in connection with any of the foregoing, then the Company shall be liable for, and shall from time to time, upon demand therefor by such Bank with a copy to the Administrative Agent, pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Bank such additional amounts as are sufficient to compensate such Bank for such increased costs.

(b)

If any Bank determines that (i) the introduction of any Capital Adequacy Regulation, (ii) any change in any Capital Adequacy Regulation, (iii) any change in the interpretation or administration of any Capital Adequacy Regulation by any central bank or other Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or (iv) compliance by such Bank (or its Lending Office), or any corporation controlling such Bank, with any Capital Adequacy Regulation affects or would affect the amount of capital that such Bank or any corporation controlling such Bank is required or expected to maintain, and such Bank (taking into consideration such Bank’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy and such Bank’s desired return on capital) determines that the amount of such capital is increased as a consequence of any of its loans, credits or obligations under this Agreement, then, upon demand of such Bank to the Company through the Administrative Agent, the Company shall immediately pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of such Bank, from time to time as specified by such Bank, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Bank for such increase.

(c)

The Company shall pay to each Bank, as long as such Bank shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including LIBOR funds or deposits (currently known as "Eurocurrency liabilities"), additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each LIBOR Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Bank (as determined by such Bank in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), which shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan, provided the Company shall have received at least 15 days’ prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of such additional interest from such Bank. If a Bank fails to give notice 15 days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest shall be due and payable 15 days from receipt of such notice.

2.4

Funding Losses. The Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, from time to time, for the account of the Banks, any amount that would be necessary to reimburse the Banks for, and to hold the Banks harmless from, any loss or expense which the Banks may sustain or incur as a consequence of:

(a)

the failure of the Company to make any payment or prepayment of principal of any LIBOR Loan (including payments made after any acceleration thereof);

(b)

the failure of the Company to borrow, continue or convert a Loan after the Company has given (or is deemed to have given) a Borrowing Notice or a Conversion/Continuation Notice;

(c)

the failure of the Company to make any prepayment after the Company has given a notice in accordance with Section 2.6 or Section 2.7;

(d)

the prepayment (including pursuant to Section 2.7.2) of a LIBOR Loan on a day which is not the last day of the Interest Period with respect thereto;

(e)

the conversion pursuant to Section 2.5 of any LIBOR Loan to a Base Rate Loan on a day that is not the last day of the respective Interest Period;

including any such loss or expense and any loss of anticipated profits arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained to maintain the LIBOR Loans hereunder or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. Solely for purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Company to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Banks, under this Section 3.4, each LIBOR Loan (and each related reserve, special deposit or similar requirement) shall be conclusively deemed to have been funded at the LIBOR Rate used in determining the LIBOR Rate for such LIBOR Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the applicable offshore dollar interbank market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such LIBOR Loan is in fact so funded.

2.5

Inability to Determine Rates. If any Bank determines that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBOR Loan or that the LIBOR Rate applicable for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBOR Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Bank of funding such Loan, such Bank will forthwith give notice of such determination to the Company through the Administrative Agent. Thereafter, the obligation of such Bank to make or maintain LIBOR Loans hereunder shall be suspended until such Bank revokes such notice in writing. Upon receipt of such notice, the Company may revoke any Borrowing Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice then submitted by it. If the Company does not revoke such notice, the affected Bank shall make, convert or continue the Loans, as proposed by the Company, in the amount specified in the applicable notice submitted by the Company, but such Loans shall be made, converted or continued as Base Rate Loans instead of LIBOR Loans.

2.6

Certificate of Bank. Any Bank, if claiming reimbursement or compensation pursuant to this Section 3, shall deliver to the Company through the Administrative Agent a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the amount payable to such Bank hereunder, and such certificate shall be conclusive and binding on the Company in the absence of manifest error.

2.7

The Company shall promptly pay all premiums when due on such insurance.

(b)

all lawful claims which, if unpaid, would by law become a Lien upon its Property unless the same are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings (which proceedings have the effect of preventing the imposition of a Lien on, or the forfeiture or sale of, any Property of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) and adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP are being maintained by the Company or such Subsidiary; and

8.1

Appointment and Authorization of the Administrative Agent.

(a)

Each Bank hereby irrevocably appoints, designates and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document, and to exercise such powers and perform such duties, as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto and as further provided in the Co-Lender Agreement described below.

(b)

The L/C Issuer shall act on behalf of the Banks with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and shall have all of the benefits and immunities (i) provided to the Administrative Agent in this Section 9 and the Co-Lender Agreement with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by it in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and the applications and agreements for letters of credit pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent” as used in this Section 9 and the Co-Lender Agreement included the L/C Issuer with respect to such acts or omissions, and (ii) as additionally provided herein with respect to the L/C Issuer.

8.2

The Administrative Agent’s Powers. Subject to the limitations set forth in the Loan Documents and the Co-Lender Agreement, the Administrative Agent’s powers include but are not limited to the power: (a) to administer, manage and service the Loans; (b) to enforce the Loan Documents; (c) to make all decisions under the Loan Documents in connection with the day-to-day administration of the Loans, any inspections required by the Loan Documents, and other routine administration and servicing matters; (d) to collect and receive from the Company or any third persons all payments of amounts due under the terms of the Loan Documents and to distribute the amounts thereof to the Banks; (e) to collect and distribute or disburse all other amounts due under the Loan Documents; (f) to grant or withhold consents, approvals or waivers, and make any other determinations in connection with the Loan Documents; and (g) to exercise all such powers as are incidental to any of the foregoing matters. The Administrative Agent shall furnish to the Banks copies of material documents, including confidential ones, received from the Company regarding the Loans, the Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby. The Administrative Agent shall have no responsibility with respect to the authenticity, validity, accuracy or completeness of the information provided.

8.3

Limitation on the Administrative Agent’s Duties. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of any Loan Document, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents or the Co-Lender Agreement, nor shall the Administrative Agent have any fiduciary relationship with any Bank or participant, and no implied covenants, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement, any other Loan Document or the Co-Lender Agreement against the Administrative Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” herein and in the other Loan Documents with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

8.4

Acknowledgment of Co-Lender Agreement.

Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the Majority Banks as a result of the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct in performing its duties under this Agreement shall, resign as Administrative Agent upon thirty (30) days’ notice to the Banks; provided that any such resignation by Bank of America shall also constitute its resignation as L/C Issuer hereunder and as Swing Line Lender. If the Administrative Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Majority Banks shall appoint from among the Banks a successor administrative agent. If no successor administrative agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Banks, a successor administrative agent that would qualify as an Eligible Assignee. Upon its acceptance of the appointment as successor administrative agent, such successor shall succeed to all of the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor, and the appointment, powers and duties of such retiring Administrative Agent, shall terminate. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as administrative agent, the provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document regarding payment of costs and expenses and indemnification of the Administrative Agent shall inure to its benefit as to any actions that such retiring Administrative Agent took or omitted to take while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement. If no successor administrative agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date that is thirty (30) days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective, and the Banks shall perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Majority Banks appoint a successor administrative agent in the manner set forth above. Upon replacement of the Administrative Agent as provided in this Agreement, the former Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver to the new Administrative Agent an assignment of all beneficial interest in any Mortgage and any other Collateral Documents (if before acquisition of title to the Collateral encumbered thereby), or a quitclaim deed to and assignment of any such Property (if after acquisition of the Collateral encumbered thereby) and copies of any books, records and documents related to the Loans and the Collateral to which the Banks are entitled and which is then in the former Administrative Agent’s possession.

8.7

Release of Lien and Release of Guaranty. The Banks hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and its discretion, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from the Banks, from time to time to (i) take any action, with respect to any Collateral or the Collateral Documents which may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected the security interest in and Liens upon any Collateral granted pursuant to any Loan Document; (ii) release its Lien on an Approved Parcel upon the satisfaction of the release conditions set forth in subsection 2.15.1 hereof; and (iii) release any Subsidiary from its obligations under its Guaranty upon the occurrence of the events described in subsection 2.15.3 hereof; and (iii) release any Guarantor and the Administrative Agent’s Lien on any Collateral upon termination of the Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations) and the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit. Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Majority Banks will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release the Lien on any Collateral and to release any Subsidiary from its obligations under its Guaranty pursuant to this Section 9.7.

Miscellaneous.

Subject to subsection (e) of this Section, the Company agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.1, 3.3 and 3.4 to the same extent as if it were a Bank and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section. Such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.13 as though it were a Bank.

(e)

A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.1 or 3.3 than the applicable Bank would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Company's prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Bank if it were a Bank shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.1 unless the Company is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Company, to comply with Section 10.18 as though it were a Bank.

Arbitration; Reference.

(a)

Mandatory Arbitration. Any controversy or claim between or among the parties, including those arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any agreements or instruments relating hereto (including the other Loan Document) or delivered in connection herewith and any claim based on or arising from an alleged tort, shall at the request of any party be determined by binding arbitration. The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act (Title 9, U.S. Code) (or, if not applicable, the applicable state law), notwithstanding any choice of law provision in this Agreement, the applicable rules for arbitration of disputes of JAMS LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, or any successor thereof (“JAMS”), and the “Special Rules” set forth below. In the event of any inconsistency, the Special Rules shall control. The filing of a court action is not intended to constitute a waiver of the right of the Company, the Administrative Agent or any Bank, including the suing party, thereafter to require submittal of the claim or controversy to arbitration. Any party to this Agreement may bring an action, including a summary or expedited proceeding, to compel arbitration of any claim or controversy in any court having jurisdiction over such action. For the purposes of this dispute resolution provision only, the terms “party” and “parties” shall include any parent corporation, subsidiary or affiliate of Administrative Agent involved in the servicing, management or administration of any obligation described in or evidenced by this Agreement, together with the officers, employees, successors and assigns of each of the foregoing.

(b)

Special Rules.

(i)

The arbitration shall be conducted in any U.S. state where real or tangible personal property Collateral is located, or if there is no such Collateral, in the City and County where Administrative Agent is located pursuant to its address for notice purposes in this Agreement.

(ii)

The arbitration shall be administered by JAMS, who will appoint an arbitrator; if JAMS is unable to administer or legally precluded from administering the arbitration, then the American Arbitration Association will serve. All claims and controversies shall be determined by one arbitrator; however, if the amount in controversy in a claim or controversy exceeds Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000), upon the request of any party, such claim or controversy shall be decided by three arbitrators (for purposes of this Agreement, referred to collectively as the “arbitrator”).

(iii)

All arbitration hearings will be commenced within ninety (90) days of the demand for arbitration and completed within ninety (90) days from the date of commencement; provided, however, that upon a showing of good cause, the arbitrator shall be permitted to extend the commencement of such hearing for up to an additional sixty (60) days.

(iv)

The judgment and the award, if any, of the arbitrator shall be issued within thirty (30) days of the close of the hearing. The arbitrator shall provide a concise written statement setting forth the reasons for the judgment and for the award, if any. The arbitration award, if any, may be submitted to any court having jurisdiction to be confirmed and enforced, and such confirmation and enforcement shall not be subject to arbitration.

(v)

The arbitrator will have the authority to decide whether any claim or controversy is barred by the statute of limitations and, if so, to dismiss the arbitration on that basis. For purposes of the application of the statute of limitations, the service on JAMS under applicable JAMS rules of a notice of the claim or controversy is the equivalent of the filing of a lawsuit.

(vi)

Any dispute concerning this arbitration provision, including any such dispute as to the validity or enforceability of this provision, or whether a claim or controversy is arbitrable, shall be determined by the arbitrator.

(vii)

The arbitrator shall have the power to award legal fees and costs pursuant to the terms of this Agreement .and under the Commercial Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”).

(b)

Real Property Collateral. Notwithstanding the provisions of subparagraph 10.14(a), no controversy or claim shall be submitted to arbitration without the consent of all parties if, at the time of the proposed submission, such controversy or claim arises from or relates to an obligation to the Banks which is secured by real property Collateral. If all parties do not consent to submission of such a controversy or claim to arbitration, the controversy or claim shall be determined as provided in subparagraph 10.14(c).

(c)

Judicial Reference. At the request of any party, a controversy or claim which is not submitted to arbitration as provided and limited in subparagraphs 10.14(a) and 10.14(b) shall be determined by a reference in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure Section 638 et seq. This provision constitutes a reference agreement between or among the parties as provided in Section 638 of the CCP. The referee(s) shall be chosen by the parties under the auspices of JAMS in the same manner as arbitrators are selected in proceedings administered under the JAMS rules and procedures for the arbitration of financial disputes. The referee (or the presiding referee of the panel) must be an active attorney or a retired judge. The award that results from the decision of the referee(s) shall be entered as a judgment in the court that appointed the referee(s), in accordance with the provisions of Sections 644 and 645 of the CCP.

(d)

Reservations of Rights. Nothing in this Section 10.14 shall be deemed to (i) limit the applicability of any otherwise applicable statutes of limitation and any waivers contained in this Agreement, or (ii) apply to or limit the right of the Administrative Agent or any Bank (A) to exercise self help remedies such as (but not limited to) setoff, or (B) to foreclose judicially or nonjudicially against any real or personal property Collateral, or to exercise judicial or nonjudicial power of sale rights, (C) to obtain from a court provisional or ancillary remedies such as (but not limited to) injunctive relief, writ of possession, prejudgment attachment, or the appointment of a receiver, or (D) to pursue rights against a party to this Agreement in a third-party proceeding in any action brought against the Administrative Agent or any Bank in a state, federal or international court, tribunal or hearing body (including actions in specialty courts, such as bankruptcy and patent courts). Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Administrative Agent and any Bank may exercise the rights set forth in clauses (A) through (D), inclusive, before, during or after the pendency of any arbitration or judicial reference proceeding brought pursuant to this Agreement. Neither the exercise of self help remedies nor the institution or maintenance of an action for foreclosure or provisional or ancillary remedies shall constitute a waiver of the right of any party, including the claimant in any such action, to arbitrate, or submit to judicial reference, the merits of the claim or controversy occasioning resort to such remedies. No provision in the Loan Documents regarding submission to jurisdiction and/or venue in any court is intended or shall be construed to be in derogation of the provisions in any Loan Document for arbitration or judicial reference of any claim or controversy.

(e)

Conflicting Provisions for Dispute Resolution. If there is any conflict between the terms, conditions and provisions of this Section and those of any other provision or agreement for arbitration, judicial reference or other dispute resolution, the terms, conditions and provisions of this Section shall prevail as to any claim or controversy arising out of or relating to (i) this Agreement, (ii) any other Loan Document, (iii) any related agreements or instruments, or (iv) the transaction contemplated herein or therein (including any claim based on or arising from an alleged personal injury or business tort). In any other situation, if the resolution of a given claim or controversy is specifically governed by another provision or agreement for arbitration, judicial reference or other dispute resolution, the other provision or agreement shall prevail with respect to said claim or controversy.

9.16

Entire Agreement; Amendment and Restatement. This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, embodies the entire Agreement and understanding among the Company, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the Banks, on the other, and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous agreements and understandings of such Persons, verbal or written, relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof, except for any prior arrangements made with respect to the payment by the Company of (or any indemnification for) any fees, costs or expenses payable to or incurred (or to be incurred) by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent or any of the Banks. This Agreement amends, restates and supersedes in its entirety the Existing Credit Agreement; provided, however, that any LIBOR Loan (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) that remains outstanding on and after the Closing Date shall continue to be a valid LIBOR Loan governed by the terms of the Existing Credit Agreement.

(i) Each Bank that is not a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “Foreign Bank”) shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, prior to receipt of any payment subject to withholding under the Code (or upon accepting an assignment of an interest herein), two duly signed completed copies of either IRS Form W-8BEN or any successor thereto (relating to such Foreign Bank and entitling it to an exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax on all payments to be made to such Foreign Bank by the Company pursuant to this Agreement) or IRS Form W-8ECI or any successor thereto (relating to all payments to be made to such Foreign Bank by the Company pursuant to this Agreement) or such other evidence satisfactory to the Company and the Administrative Agent that such Foreign Bank is entitled to an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. withholding tax, including any exemption pursuant to Section 881(c) of the Code. Thereafter and from time to time, each such Foreign Bank shall (A) promptly submit to the Administrative Agent such additional duly completed and signed copies of one of such forms (or such successor forms as shall be adopted from time to time by the relevant United States taxing authorities) as may then be available under then current United States laws and regulations to avoid, or such evidence as is satisfactory to the Company and the Administrative Agent of any available exemption from or reduction of, United States withholding taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Foreign Bank by the Company pursuant to this Agreement, (B) promptly notify the Administrative Agent of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction, and (C) take such steps as shall not be materially disadvantageous to it, in the reasonable judgment of such Bank, and as may be reasonably necessary (including the re-designation of its Lending Office) to avoid any requirement of applicable laws that the Company make any deduction or withholding for taxes from amounts payable to such Foreign Bank.

(ii)

Each Foreign Bank, to the extent it does not act or ceases to act for its own account with respect to any portion of any sums paid or payable to such Bank under any of the Loan Documents (for example, in the case of a typical participation by such Bank), shall deliver to the Administrative Agent on the date when such Foreign Bank ceases to act for its own account with respect to any portion of any such sums paid or payable, and at such other times as may be necessary in the determination of the Administrative Agent (in the reasonable exercise of its discretion), (A) two duly signed completed copies of the forms or statements required to be provided by such Bank as set forth above, to establish the portion of any such sums paid or payable with respect to which such Bank acts for its own account that is not subject to U.S. withholding tax, and (B) two duly signed completed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY (or any successor thereto), together with any information such Bank chooses to transmit with such form, and any other certificate or statement of exemption required under the Code, to establish that such Bank is not acting for its own account with respect to a portion of any such sums payable to such Bank.

(iii)

The Company shall not be required to pay any additional amount to any Foreign Bank under Section 3.1 (A) with respect to any Taxes required to be deducted or withheld on the basis of the information, certificates or statements of exemption such Bank transmits with an IRS Form W-8IMY pursuant to this subsection 10.18(a), or (B) if such Bank shall have failed to satisfy the foregoing provisions of this subsection 10.18(a); provided that if such Bank shall have satisfied the requirement of this subsection 10.18(a) on the date such Bank became a Bank or ceased to act for its own account with respect to any payment under any of the Loan Documents, nothing in this subsection 10.18(a) shall relieve the Company of its obligation to pay any amounts pursuant to Section 3.1 in the event that, as a result of any change in any applicable law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order, or any change in the interpretation, administration or application thereof, such Bank is no longer properly entitled to deliver forms, certificates or other evidence at a subsequent date establishing the fact that such Bank or other Person for the account of which such Bank receives any sums payable under any of the Loan Documents is not subject to withholding or is subject to withholding at a reduced rate.

(iv)

The Administrative Agent may, without reduction, withhold any Taxes required to be deducted and withheld from any payment under any of the Loan Documents with respect to which the Company is not required to pay additional amounts under this subsection 10.18(a).

(b)

Upon the request of the Administrative Agent, each Bank that is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to the Administrative Agent two duly signed completed copies of IRS Form W-9. If such Bank fails to deliver such forms, then the Administrative Agent may withhold from any interest payment to such Bank an amount equivalent to the applicable back-up withholding tax imposed by the Code, without reduction.

(c)

If any Governmental Authority asserts that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold or backup withhold, as the case may be, any tax or other amount from payments made to or for the account of any Bank, such Bank shall indemnify the Administrative Agent therefor, including all penalties and interest, any taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on the amounts payable to the Administrative Agent under this Section, and costs and expenses (including Attorney Costs) of the Administrative Agent. The obligation of the Banks under this Section shall survive the termination of the Commitments, repayment of all other Obligations hereunder and the resignation of the Administrative Agent.

9.19

Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Administrative Agent or any Bank shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Company. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Administrative Agent or a Bank exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

9.20

Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Administrative Agent and each Bank, regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Agent or any Bank or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Bank may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Borrowing, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied or any Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding.

9.21

USA PATRIOT Act Notice. Each Bank and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Bank) hereby notifies the Company that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Company, which information includes the name and address of the Company and other information that will allow such Bank or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Company in accordance with the Act.

9.22

No Set-off. As long as the Obligations are secured by real property, neither the Administrative Agent nor any Bank nor any assignee, Participant or Affiliate thereof (each, a “Bank Party”) shall proceed directly, by right of set-off, banker’s lien, counterclaim or otherwise, against any assets of the Company or Guarantor (including any general or special, time or demand, provisional or other deposits or other indebtedness owing by such Bank Party to or for the credit or the account of the Company or any Guarantor) for the purpose of applying such assets against the Obligations, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.

9.23

Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence of the Loan Documents.
