If any Loan Party (the “Acquiring Loan Party”) desires to incur Acquisition Financing, the Borrower Representative shall give notice thereof to the Administrative Agent not less than forty-five (45) days prior to the incurrence of such Acquisition Financing (the “Financing Notice”), which notice shall describe in reasonable detail the Business Acquisition such Acquisition Financing is intended to finance (the “Contemplated Acquisition”) and the terms and conditions of such proposed Acquisition Financing, including the principal amount thereof, the interest rate payable thereunder, the repayment terms thereof, descriptions of any applicable collateral and guarantees, and all other material terms thereof. The Lenders shall have the right to provide all or any portion of the Acquisition Financing under the terms set forth in the Financing Notice. If the Majority Lenders elect to provide all or any portion of the Acquisition Financing, they shall waive compliance with Section 7.1 with respect thereto. If the Majority Lenders do not elect to provide any of the Acquisition Financing and do not waive compliance with Section 7.1 with respect thereto within forty-five (45) days after the giving of the Financing Notice, subject to the consummation of the Acquisition Financing, Borrowers shall promptly (but in no event later than five Business Days) after such consummation, prepay the outstanding principal balance of the Loans, ratably as to each Lender, in whole, but not less than whole. Borrower Representative shall give Administrative Agent at least five Business Days’ prior notice of such prepayment, specifying the date and amount thereof. Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of any such notice and of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such prepayment. The payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. If (x) the Prepayment Date is on or before the Second Anniversary, such prepayment shall be made together with the Non-Call Make-Whole Premium; and (y) if the Prepayment Date is after the Second Anniversary and (1) the Contemplated Acquisition is not consummated for any reason within ninety (90) days after the giving of the Financing Notice, or (2) the Acquiring Loan Party incurs the Acquisition Financing described in the Financing Notice upon terms more favorable to the lenders thereof than those described in the Financing Notice, then Borrowers shall pay to Administrative Agent, within five (5) Business Days after the occurrence of any event described in clause (1) or (2), the difference between the amount Borrowers would have been required to pay pursuant to Section 2.3(c)(iii) (other than subclause (F)) had they prepaid the Loans in whole on such Prepayment Date pursuant to Section 2.3(c)(iii) (other than subclause (F)) and the amount Borrowers actually paid on such Prepayment Date. Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of any such payment and of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof. Nothing in this paragraph shall require any Lender to provide any Acquisition Financing.

(d)     In the event of a direct conflict between the priority provisions of this Section 2.3 and other provisions contained in any other Loan Document, it is the intention of the parties hereto that such priority provisions in such documents shall be read together and construed, to the fullest extent possible, to be in concert with each other. In the event of any actual, irreconcilable conflict that cannot be resolved as aforesaid, the terms and provisions of this Section 2.3 shall control and govern.

26

(e)     For purposes of this Agreement, in any mandatory repayment of Loans, the term “Loans” shall include PIK Interest paid and PIK Interest which is due but has not then been paid.

2.4     Interest, Rates, Payments, and Calculations.

(a)     Interest Rate; Payment of Interest. Except as provided in clause (b) below, interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Loans (including any PIK Interest) shall accrue on a quarterly basis and be calculated and payable as follows: (i) interest on the Daily Balance at the Applicable Rate (the “Cash Interest”) is due and payable in arrears in cash on the last day of each Fiscal Quarter and on the Maturity Date (each, an “Interest Payment Date”), and (ii) interest on the Daily Balance at the rate of 4% per annum (the “PIK Interest”) shall accrue in arrears and be added to the principal amount of the Loans on each Interest Payment Date, for so long as there is no Event of Default. If there is an Event of Default, then, thereafter, the interest which would have otherwise been payable in PIK Interest shall be due and payable in arrears in cash on each Interest Payment Date. Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Loan Party incurs any Qualified Other Debt that requires the current payment of cash interest, then, from and after such incurrence, the Daily Balance shall cease to bear PIK Interest (it being understood that accrued and unpaid PIK Interest shall be added to the principal amount of the Loans at the time of such incurrence notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement) and the Applicable Rate for all purposes of this Agreement shall be a per annum rate equal to the greater of (x) One Month Libor as in effect on such date plus 11%, and (y) 12% per annum. Unless otherwise specifically set forth herein, references in this Agreement to “interest” refer to Cash Interest and PIK Interest.

(b)     Default Rate. If any amount payable by a Loan Party under any Loan Document is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, all of such amounts shall bear interest on the Daily Balance thereof at a per annum rate equal to (i) the Applicable Rate plus (ii) (x) two percent (2.0%) during the first 90 days after such non-payment, or (y) five percent (5.0%) thereafter (the “Default Rate”). If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, all Obligations that have been charged to the Loan Account pursuant to the terms hereof shall bear interest at the Default Rate, with the reference to “such non-payment” in the preceding sentence being deemed a reference to “such Event of Default” for the purposes of this sentence.

(c)     Computation. All interest and fees chargeable hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a 360 day year for the actual number of days elapsed.

27

(d)     Intent to Limit Charges to Maximum Lawful Rate. It is the intention of the parties hereto that Administrative Agent and each Lender shall conform strictly to usury laws applicable to it. Accordingly, if the transactions contemplated hereby or by any other Loan Document would be usurious as to Administrative Agent or any Lender under laws applicable to it (including the laws of the United States of America and the State of New York or any other jurisdiction whose laws may be mandatorily applicable to Administrative Agent or such Lender notwithstanding the other provisions of this Agreement), then, in that event, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any of the Loan Documents or any agreement entered into in connection with or as security for the Obligations, it is agreed as follows: (i) the aggregate of all consideration which constitutes interest under law applicable to Administrative Agent or any Lender that is contracted for, taken, reserved, charged or received by Administrative Agent or such Lender under any of the Loan Documents or agreements or otherwise in connection with the Obligations shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum amount allowed by such applicable law, and any excess shall be canceled automatically and if theretofore paid shall be credited by Administrative Agent or such Lender on the principal amount of the Obligations (or, to the extent that the principal amount of the Obligations shall have been or would thereby be paid in full, refunded by Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, to Borrowers); and (ii) if the maturity of the Obligations is accelerated by reason of an election of the holder thereof resulting from any Event of Default under this Agreement or otherwise, or in the event of any required or permitted prepayment, then such consideration that constitutes interest under law applicable to Administrative Agent or any Lender may never include more than the maximum amount allowed by such applicable law, and excess interest, if any, provided for in this Agreement or otherwise shall be canceled automatically by Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, as of the date of such acceleration or prepayment and, if theretofore paid, shall be credited by Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, on the principal amount of the Obligations (or, to the extent that the principal amount of the Obligations shall have been or would thereby be paid in full, refunded by Administrative Agent or such Lender to Borrowers). All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Administrative Agent or any Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of sums due hereunder shall, to the extent permitted by law applicable to Administrative Agent or such Lender, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full term of the Obligations until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of any Obligations hereunder does not exceed the maximum amount allowed by such applicable law. If at any time and from time to time (i) the amount of interest payable to Administrative Agent or any Lender on any date shall be computed at the Highest Lawful Rate (as defined below) applicable to Administrative Agent or such Lender pursuant to this Section 2.4(d) and (ii) in respect of any subsequent interest computation period the amount of interest otherwise payable to Administrative Agent or such Lender would be less than the amount of interest payable to Administrative Agent or such Lender computed at the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to Administrative Agent or such Lender, then the amount of interest payable to Administrative Agent or such Lender in respect of such subsequent interest computation period shall continue to be computed at the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to Administrative Agent or such Lender until the total amount of interest payable to Administrative Agent or such Lender shall equal the total amount of interest which would have been payable to Administrative Agent or such Lender if the total amount of interest had been computed without giving effect to this Section 2.4(d). For purposes of this Section 2.4(d), the term “applicable law” means that law in effect from time to time and applicable to the loan transaction between Borrower and Lender Group that lawfully permits the charging and collection of the highest permissible, lawful non-usurious rate of interest on such loan transaction and this Agreement, including laws of the State of New York and, to the extent controlling, laws of the United States of America. For purposes of this Section 2.4(d), “Highest Lawful Rate” means, with respect to Administrative Agent or any Lender, the maximum non-usurious interest rate, if any, that at any time or from time to time may be contracted for, taken, reserved, charged or received on the Obligations under the laws applicable to Administrative Agent or such Lender which are currently in effect or, to the extent allowed by law, under such applicable laws which may hereafter be in effect and which allow a higher maximum non-usurious interest rate than applicable laws now allow.

2.5     Application of Collections. The receipt of any Collection item by Administrative Agent shall not be considered a payment on account unless such Collection item is a wire transfer of immediately available federal funds and is made to Administrative Agent Account or unless and until such Collection item is honored when presented for payment; provided, however, that Administrative Agent reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to exclude from such provisional payment the amount of any such Collections that Administrative Agent determines may constitute trust funds (e.g., production taxes, severance taxes, or payroll taxes). Should any Collection item not be honored when presented for payment, then Borrowers shall be deemed not to have made such payment, and interest shall be recalculated accordingly. Anything to the contrary contained herein notwithstanding, any Collection item shall be deemed received by Administrative Agent only if it is received into Administrative Agent Account on a Business Day on or before 12:00 p.m. New York City time. If any Collection item is received into Administrative Agent Account on a non-Business Day or after 12:00 p.m. New York City time on a Business Day, it shall be deemed to have been received by Administrative Agent as of the opening of business on the immediately following Business Day. The parties acknowledge and agree that the economic benefit of the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.5 shall be for the exclusive benefit of Administrative Agent.

28

2.6     Intentionally Omitted.

2.7     Maintenance of Loan Account; Statements of Obligations. Administrative Agent shall maintain an account on its books in the names of Borrowers (the “Loan Account”) on which Borrowers will be charged with the Loans made by Administrative Agent or Lenders to Borrowers or for Borrowers’ account at the time such Loans are made, accrued interest, the fees provided for in Section 2.8 (as and when accrued or incurred) the Make-Whole Premium, the Non-Call Make-Whole Premium or any applicable Prepayment Premium (as and when accrued or incurred) and Lender Group Expenses, and any other payment Obligations of Borrowers not paid when due. The Loan Account will be credited with all payments received by Administrative Agent from Borrowers or for Borrowers’ account. Upon request of the Borrower Representative, Administrative Agent shall render statements regarding the Loan Account to Borrower, including principal, interest, fees, and including an itemization of all charges and expenses constituting Lender Group Expenses owing, and such statements shall be conclusively presumed to be correct and accurate (absent manifest error) and constitute an account stated between Borrowers and Lender Group.

2.8     Fees. Borrowers shall pay to Administrative Agent fees in the amounts and at the times specified in the Fee Letter. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever.

2.9     Tax Provisions Applicable to the Loans.

(a)     Intentionally Omitted.

(b)     Tax Treatment. Borrowers, Administrative Agent and each Lender agree that the Loans will be issued with original issue discount, and the Loans and Warrants constitute an investment unit for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Borrower Representative shall, no later than 10 days after the date any Lender requests a promissory note under Section 2.10(a), make available to such Lender the information described in Treasury Regulation §1.1275-3(b)(1)(i).

2.10     Noteless Agreement.

(a)     No promissory notes shall be required to evidence the payment obligations of any Loans; provided that, nothing herein shall prohibit a Lender from requesting a promissory note from Borrowers and, upon any such request, Borrowers shall provide such Lender with a promissory note in an amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment and otherwise in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Lender. Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts on its books evidencing the obligations of Borrowers resulting from the Loans, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to Lender hereunder. Absent manifest error, entries maintained in said accounts shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the Loans and the payment obligations of Borrowers; provided, however, that the failure of Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of Borrowers to repay the Loans.

(b)     Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent on behalf of Borrowers, agrees to record the Commitments and Loans on the Register. Once recorded on the Register, no Commitment or Loan may be removed from the Register so long as it remains outstanding, absent manifest error.

29

2.11     Securitization. In addition to any other assignment permitted pursuant to this Agreement, Borrowers hereby acknowledge that each Lender (a “Securitizing Lender”) may, at such Lender’s sole cost and expense, including reasonable fees of Lender’s and Borrowers’ respective counsel to review related amendments, securitize the Loans (a “Securitization”) through the pledge of its Loans as collateral security for loans to such Securitizing Lender or its Affiliates or Related Funds or through the sale of the Loans or the issuance of direct or indirect interests in its Loans, which loans to such Securitizing Lender or its Affiliates or Related Funds or direct or indirect interests will be rated by Xxxxx’x, S&P or one or more other rating agencies; provided that no Confidential Information (as defined below) may be disclosed to any Person in connection with any Securitization unless such Person has expressly agreed in writing to maintain the confidentiality of the Confidential Information subject to the disclosures permitted under Section 18.12. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, expenses in connection with a Securitization incurred by each Lender conducting a Securitization shall not constitute Lender Group Expenses. The Loan Parties shall reasonably cooperate with each Securitizing Lender to effect a Securitization including by (a) amending this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and executing such additional documents, as reasonably requested by the Lenders in connection with the Securitization, (b) providing such information as may be reasonably requested by the Lenders or the applicable rating agencies in connection with the Securitizing Lender, its Affiliates and Related Funds, or any party providing credit support or otherwise participating in the Securitization, including any investors in a securitization entity (collectively, the “Securitization Parties”) for any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (the “Securitization Liabilities”) to which the Securitizing Lender, its Affiliates and Related Funds or such Securitization Parties may become subject insofar as the Securitization Liabilities arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any Loan Document or in any writing delivered by or on behalf of any Loan Party to the Lender Group in connection with any Loan Document or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and such indemnity shall survive any transfer by the Lenders or their successors or assigns of the Loans, and (ii) agreeing to reimburse the Securitizing Lender, its Affiliates and Related Funds and the other Securitization Parties for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Persons in connection with defending the Securitization Liabilities.

4. TAXES.

4.1     Taxes.

(a)     Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of Borrowers hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, provided that if any Borrower shall be required by applicable law to deduct or withhold any Indemnified Taxes (including any Other Taxes) from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions or withholdings (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) Administrative Agent or Lender (or its Tax Related Person), as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made, (ii) such Borrower shall make such deductions or withholdings and (iii) such Borrower shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b)     Payment of Other Taxes by Borrowers. Without limiting the provisions of paragraph (a) above, Borrowers shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c)     Indemnification by Borrower. Borrowers shall jointly and severally indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender (and each of its Tax Related Persons), within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) paid by Administrative Agent or such Lender (or any of its Tax Related Persons), as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of Borrowers, and any penalties and interest arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate containing a copy of a receipt or other document issued by a Governmental Authority reflecting the payment or assessment of the Taxes subject to indemnification delivered to Borrower Representative by a Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent), or by Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender (or its Tax Related Person), and setting forth the amount of such payment or liability reasonably necessary to compensate Administrative Agent or such Lender (or its Tax Related Person), as the case may be, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

32

(d)     Indemnification by Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that Borrowers have not already indemnified Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of Borrowers to do so), (ii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by Administrative Agent to Lender from any other source against any amount due to Administrative Agent under this paragraph (d).

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

(f)     Status of Lenders.

(i)     Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of U.S. withholding Tax shall deliver to Borrower Representative (with a copy to Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by Borrower Representative or Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without U.S. withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if requested by Borrower Representative or Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other U.S. documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by Borrower Representative or Administrative Agent as will enable Borrower Representative or Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 4.1(f)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(C) below) shall not be required if in Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(ii)     Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause any Lender (x) that is not a Foreign Lender shall deliver duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, and (y) any Foreign Lender shall deliver whichever of the following is applicable:

33

(A)     duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States of America is a party,

(B)     duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI,

(C)     in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the IRC, (x) a certificate to the effect that the interest payments are not effectively connected with the United States trade or business conducted by such Foreign Lender, and that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the IRC, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of any Borrower within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the IRC, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the IRC and (y) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, or

(D)     any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. withholding Tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit Borrower Representative to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

The forms and certificates that are required to be delivered by a Lender pursuant to this Section shall be delivered by the applicable Lender to Borrower Representative and Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of Borrower Representative or Administrative Agent) and, in each case, only to the extent that a Lender is legally entitled to deliver such forms and certificates. Each Lender agrees that if any documentation previously delivered by it expires or becomes obsolete or invalid, it shall promptly update such documentation and deliver it to Borrower Representative and Administrative Agent or, if it is legally unable to do so, notify Borrower Representative and Administrative Agent of such inability.

(g)     Treatment of Certain Refunds. If Administrative Agent or a Lender determines, in its reasonable discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by any Borrower or with respect to which any Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay to such Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Borrower under this Section with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, incurred in connection with such refund, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that such Borrower, upon the request of Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph shall not be construed to require Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to Borrowers or any other Person.

4.2     Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a)     Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requires any Borrower to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 4.1, then, if so requested by Borrower Representative, such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 4.1 in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. Borrowers hereby agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender at the request of Borrower Representative in connection with any such designation or assignment.

34

(b)     Replacement of Lenders. If any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 4.1 in an amount disproportionate to the amount Borrowers are required to pay any other Lender or such Governmental Authority for the account of such other Lender pursuant to such Section, then Borrowers may, at their sole expense and effort, upon notice by the Borrower Representative to such Lender and Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 15.2), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:

(i)     Borrowers shall have paid to Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 15.2;

(ii)     such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts);

(iii)     in the case of any payments required to be made pursuant to Section 4.1, such assignment will result in the elimination of such compensation or payments thereafter; and

(iv)     such assignment does not conflict with applicable law.

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling Borrowers to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

4.3     Representation and Warranties and Covenants of the Lenders.

    (a)     Representations and Warranties.

56

(b)     Upon the occurrence, and during the continuation, of any other Event of Default other than under Section 8(c) or 8(d), the Majority Lenders (at their election but without notice of their election and without demand) may authorize and instruct Administrative Agent (and Administrative Agent, acting upon the instructions of the Majority Lenders, shall do the same on behalf of Lender Group), to declare all outstanding Loans (together with the Make-Whole Premium, the Non-Call Make-Whole Premium and any applicable Prepayment Premium resulting from the payment of Loans required hereby) and other amounts payable under the Loan Documents, immediately due and payable.

(c)     Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, the Majority Lenders (at their election but without notice of their election and without demand) may authorize and instruct Administrative Agent (and Administrative Agent, acting upon the instructions of the Majority Lenders, shall do the same on behalf of Lender Group), to do any of the following, all of which are authorized by Borrowers:

(i)     Cease advancing money or extending credit to or for the benefit of Borrowers under this Agreement, under any of the Loan Documents, or under any other agreement between any Borrower and Lender Group;

(ii)     Terminate this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents as to any future liability or obligation of Lender Group, but without affecting Administrative Agent’s rights and security interests, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in the Collateral and without affecting the Obligations;

(iii)     Without notice to Borrowers (such notice being expressly waived), and without constituting a retention of any Collateral in satisfaction of an obligation (within the meaning of the UCC), set off and apply to the Obligations any and all (i) balances and deposits of Loan Parties held by Lender Group, or (ii) indebtedness at any time owing to or for the credit or the account of Loan Parties held by Lender Group; and

(iv)     Hold, as cash collateral, any and all balances and deposits of Loan Parties held by Lender Group, to secure the repayment in full of all of the Obligations.

(d)     Administrative Agent and Lender Group shall have all other rights and remedies available to it at law or in equity pursuant to any other Loan Documents.

9.2     Remedies Cumulative. The rights and remedies of Lender Group under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and all other agreements shall be cumulative. Lender Group shall have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as provided under the UCC, by law, or in equity. No exercise by Lender Group of one right or remedy shall be deemed an election, and no waiver by Lender Group of any Event of Default shall be deemed a continuing waiver. No delay by Lender Group shall constitute a waiver, election, or acquiescence by it. Nothing in this Agreement in any way limits, impairs or reduces any rights of Lender Group under any of the Loan Documents.

9.3     Lender Directed Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Administrative Agent shall (and is hereby authorized by the parties hereto), upon the written demand from the Majority Lenders, accelerate the maturity of the Loans and promptly commence and diligently pursue in good faith the exercise of its enforcement rights or remedies against, and take action to enforce its Liens on, the Collateral so long as Administrative Agent is permitted to exercise such rights and remedies by the terms of the Loan Documents (excluding any restriction based upon authorization by the Majority Lenders or any other vote of Lender Group) or under applicable law (including any or all of the following: solicitation of bids from third parties to conduct the liquidation of all or a material portion of Collateral, the engagement or retention of sales brokers, marketing agents, investment bankers, accountants, appraisers, auctioneers or other third parties for the purposes of valuing, marketing, promoting, and selling a material portion of the Collateral, the opposition of the use of cash collateral or sale of assets in an Insolvency Proceeding, seeking to obtain relief from any stay imposed by applicable law governing an Insolvency Proceeding, the commencement of any action to foreclose on its Lien on all or any material portion of the Collateral, notification of account debtors to make payments to Administrative Agent or its agents, any action to take possession of all or any material portion of the Collateral or commencement of any legal proceedings or actions against or with respect to all or any material portion of the Collateral), provided that (A) such Event of Default has not been waived or cured, (B) in the reasonable good faith determination of Administrative Agent, taking such action is permitted under the terms of the Loan Documents and applicable law, (C) taking such action will not result in any liability of Administrative Agent or Lenders to Borrower, any Guarantor, or any other Person, and (D) Administrative Agent shall be entitled to all of the benefits of Section 17.7 of this Agreement in connection with taking such enforcement action.

57

10. TAXES AND EXPENSES.

If any Borrower fails to pay any monies (whether Taxes, assessments, insurance premiums, or, in the case of leased properties or assets, rents or other amounts payable under such leases) due to third Persons, or fails to make any deposits or furnish any required proof of payment or deposit, all as required under the terms of this Agreement, then, to the extent that Administrative Agent reasonably determines that such failure by such Borrower could result in a Material Adverse Change, in its discretion and without prior notice (but with notice promptly thereafter) to Borrowers, Administrative Agent may do any or all of the following: (a) make payment of the same or any part thereof; or (b) obtain and maintain insurance policies of the type described in Section 6.8, and take any action with respect to such policies as Administrative Agent deems prudent. Any such amounts paid by Administrative Agent shall constitute Lender Group Expenses. Any such payments made by Administrative Agent shall not constitute an agreement by Lender Group to make similar payments in the future or a waiver by Lender Group of any Event of Default under this Agreement. Administrative Agent need not inquire as to, or contest the validity of, any such expense, Tax, or Lien and, absent gross negligence by Administrative Agent, the receipt of the usual official notice for the payment thereof shall be conclusive evidence that the same was validly due and owing.

11. EXPENSES; INDEMNIFICATION; DAMAGE WAIVER.

11.1     Costs and Expenses. Borrowers shall pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Administrative Agent (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for Administrative Agent) in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with its administration of the Funding Account and the Collections Accounts) or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), and (ii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Administrative Agent or any Lender (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any external counsel for Administrative Agent or any Lender) in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights (A) in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or (B) in connection with the Loans made hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans.

58

11.2     Indemnification by Borrowers. Borrowers shall jointly and severally indemnify Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof) and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any external counsel for any Indemnitee) incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby (including any agreement with any depositary bank governing Administrative Agent’s administration of the Funding Account and the Collections Accounts), the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any Loan or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom, (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by any Loan Party, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to any Loan Party, (iv) any claim made against the Observer in connection with his acting as such , or (v) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by any Loan Party, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto, provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee if any Loan Party has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any indemnification for Taxes shall be subject to the provisions of Section 4.1.

11.3     Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that Borrowers for any reason fail to indefeasibly pay any amount required under Section 11.1 or 11.2 to be paid by them to Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof) or any Related Party of Administrative Agent, each Lender severally agrees to pay to Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) in connection with such capacity. The obligations of Lenders under this Section 11.3 are subject to the provisions of Section 17.16.

11.4     Observer Indemnification. Borrowers acknowledge that the Observer may have certain rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and/or insurance provided by one or more members of the Lender Group (collectively, the “Lender Indemnitors”). Borrowers hereby agree (i) that they are the indemnitor of first resort (i.e., their obligations to the Observer are primary and any obligation of the Lender Indemnitors to advance expenses or to provide indemnification for the same expenses or liabilities incurred by the Observer are secondary), and (ii) that they shall be required to advance the full amount of reasonable and documented expenses incurred by the Observer and shall be liable for the full amount of all expenses and liabilities incurred by the Observer to the extent legally permitted and as required by the terms of this Agreement and the certificates of incorporation and by-laws of Borrowers (and any other agreement regarding indemnification between any Borrower and the Observer), without regard to any rights the Observer may have against any Lender Indemnitor. Borrowers further agree that no advancement or payment by any Lender Indemnitor on behalf of the Observer with respect to any claim for which the Observer has sought indemnification from Borrowers shall affect the foregoing and the Lender Indemnitors shall have a right of contribution and/or be subrogated to the extent of such advancement or payment to all of the rights of recovery of the Observer against Borrowers.

59

11.5     Consequential Damages, etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Borrowers shall not assert, and hereby waive, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

11.6     Payments. All amounts due under this Article 11 shall be payable no later than ten (10) Business Days after demand therefor.

15.2     Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

(a)     Minimum Amounts.

(i)     in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the Loans at the time owing to the assigning Lender or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or a Related Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and

(ii)     in any case not described in Section 15.2(a)(i), the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than $500,000, unless each of Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower Representative otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

62

(b)     Partial Assignments. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans assigned.

(c)     Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by Section 15.2(a)(ii) and, in addition:

(i)     so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment, the consent of Borrower Representative shall be required if the proposed assignee is a Competitor; and

(d)     Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $5,000 payable by the assignee, and the assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

(e)     Prohibited Assignments. No such assignment shall be made to any Borrower or any of Borrowers’ Affiliates or Subsidiaries or to any natural person.

(f)     Assignment by Melody Business Finance, LLC.

Subject to a Participant (as defined below) expressly agreeing in writing to maintain the confidentiality of the Confidential Information subject to the disclosures permitted under Section 18.12, any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, Borrowers or Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or any Borrower or any of Borrowers’ Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations (iii) Borrowers, Administrative Agent, and Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement; (iv) such Lender maintains a register reflecting the name and address of each Participant and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of Loans owing to such Participant; and (v) so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such participation, the consent of Borrower Representative shall be required if the proposed participant is a Competitor.

15.5     Limitations upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 4.1 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant unless the sale of the participation to such Participant was made with Borrowers’ prior written consent.

15.6     Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

16. AMENDMENTS; WAIVERS.

16.1     Amendments and Waivers. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (other than the Fee Letter, which may be amended, modified or waived by an agreement in writing among the parties thereto), and no consent with respect to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Majority Lenders (or by Administrative Agent at the written request of the Majority Lenders) and the Loan Parties party thereto and acknowledged by Administrative Agent, and then any such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that no such waiver, amendment, or consent shall:

(a)     increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender;

(b)     reduce the principal of, or the rate of interest specified herein on any Loan, or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby;

(d)     amend this Section or any provision of the Agreement providing for consent or other action by all Lenders without the written consent of each Lender;

(e)     release, or contractually subordinate any of Administrative Agent’s Liens on any Collateral other than as permitted by Section 17.11 without the written consent of each Lender;

(f)     change the definition of “Majority Lenders” or “Pro Rata Share” without the written consent of each Lender;

No Loan Party nor any of their Affiliates will, directly or indirectly, pay any remuneration or other thing of value, whether by way of additional interest, fee or otherwise, to any Lender (in its capacity as Lender hereunder) as consideration for agreement of such Lender with any modification or waiver of the Loan Documents, unless all Lenders so agreeing are concurrently paid, on the same terms, their Pro Rata Share of such remuneration or other value.

16.2     No Waivers; Cumulative Remedies. No failure by Administrative Agent or any Lender to exercise any right, remedy, or option under this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any present or future supplement hereto or thereto, or in any other agreement between or among Borrowers and Administrative Agent or any Lender, or delay by Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising the same, will operate as a waiver thereof. No waiver by Administrative Agent or any Lender will be effective unless it is in writing, and then only to the extent specifically stated. No waiver by Administrative Agent or Lenders on any occasion shall affect or diminish Administrative Agent’s and each Lender’s rights thereafter to require strict performance by Borrowers of any provision of this Agreement. Administrative Agent’s and each Lender’s rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents will be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right or remedy which Administrative Agent or any Lender may have.

16.3     Replacement of Holdout Lender.

(a)     If any action to be taken by Lender Group or Administrative Agent hereunder requires the unanimous consent, authorization, or agreement of all Lenders and has been approved by the Majority Lenders, and a Lender (“Holdout Lender”) fails to give its consent, authorization, or agreement, then Administrative Agent, upon at least five (5) Business Days prior irrevocable notice to each Holdout Lender, may permanently replace each Holdout Lender (subject to Section 15.2(c)(i)) (but not less than all Holdout Lenders) with one or more substitute Lenders (each, a “Replacement Lender”), and the Holdout Lenders shall have no right to refuse to be replaced hereunder. Such notice to replace the Holdout Lenders shall specify an effective date for such replacement, which date shall not be later than 15 Business Days after the date such notice is given. Each Holdout Lender so replaced shall be entitled to receive, in cash, concurrently with such assignment, all amounts owed to it under the Loan Documents, at par, including all principal, interest and fees through the date of such assignment.

65

(b)     Prior to the effective date of such replacement, the Holdout Lender and each Replacement Lender shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption, subject only to the Holdout Lender being repaid its share of the outstanding Obligations without any premium or penalty of any kind whatsoever. The replacement of any Holdout Lender shall be made in accordance with the terms of Section 15.2.

17. AGENT; THE LENDER GROUP.

17.1     Appointment and Authorization of Administrative Agent. Each Lender hereby designates and appoints Melody Business Finance, LLC as its representative under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes Melody Business Finance, LLC, in its capacity as 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 Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Administrative Agent agrees to act as such on the express conditions contained in this Article 17. The provisions of this Article 17 are solely for the benefit of Administrative Agent and Lenders, and no Loan Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions contained herein. Any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document notwithstanding, Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall Administrative Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against Administrative Agent; it being expressly understood and agreed that the use of the word “Administrative Agent” is for convenience only, that the Persons serving in such capacity are merely the representatives of Lenders, and have only the contractual duties set forth herein. Except as expressly otherwise provided in this Agreement, Administrative Agent shall have and may use its sole discretion with respect to exercising or refraining from exercising any discretionary rights or taking or refraining from taking any actions which Administrative Agent is expressly entitled to take or assert under or pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, or of any other provision of the Loan Documents that provides rights or powers to Administrative Agent, Lenders agree that Administrative Agent shall have the right to exercise the following powers as long as this Agreement remains in effect: (a) maintain, in accordance with its customary business practices, ledgers and records reflecting the status of the Loans, the Collateral, the Collections, and related matters; (b) execute or file any and all financing or similar statements or notices, amendments, renewals, supplements, documents, instruments, proofs of claim, notices and other written agreements with respect to the Loan Documents; (c) make Loans for itself or on behalf of Lenders as provided in the Loan Documents; (d) exclusively receive, apply, and distribute the Collections as provided in the Loan Documents; (e) open and maintain such bank accounts, cash management accounts and lock boxes as Administrative Agent deems necessary and appropriate in accordance with the Loan Documents for the foregoing purposes with respect to the Collateral and the Collections; (f) perform, exercise, and enforce any and all other rights and remedies of Lender Group with respect to Borrowers, the Obligations, the Collateral, the Collections, or otherwise related to any of same as provided in the Loan Documents; and (g) incur and pay such Lender Group Expenses as Administrative Agent may deem necessary or appropriate for the performance and fulfillment of its functions and powers pursuant to the Loan Documents.

17.2     Delegation of Duties. Except as otherwise provided in this Article 17, Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects as long as such selection was made (x) in compliance with this Article 17 and (y) without gross negligence or willful misconduct.

66

17.3     Liability and Responsibility of Agents. None of the Agent-Related Persons shall (i) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them in good faith under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct), or (ii) be responsible in any manner to any of Lenders for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by any Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of any Borrower, or any officer or director thereof, contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for any failure of any Borrower or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the Books or properties of Borrowers or the Books or properties of Borrowers’ Subsidiaries or Affiliates.

17.4     Reliance by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegraph, facsimile, telex or telephone message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent, or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to Borrowers or counsel to any Lender), independent accountants and other experts selected by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless Administrative Agent shall first receive such advice or concurrence of Lenders as it deems appropriate. If Administrative Agent so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction by Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of Lenders and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of Lenders.

17.5     Notice of Default or Event of Default. Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest, fees, and expenses required to be paid to Administrative Agent for the account of Lenders, and except with respect to Defaults or Events of Default of which Administrative Agent has actual knowledge, unless Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or Borrower Representative referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default, and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” Administrative Agent promptly will notify Lenders of its receipt of any such notice or of any Default or Event of Default of which Administrative Agent has actual knowledge. If any Lender obtains actual knowledge of any Default or Event of Default, such Lender promptly shall notify the other Lenders and Administrative Agent of such Default or Event of Default. Each Lender shall be solely responsible for giving any notices to its Participants, if any. Subject to Section 17.4, Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be requested by the Majority Lenders in accordance with Article 9; provided, however, that if an event occurs or a circumstance exists that materially and imminently threatens the ability of Administrative Agent and Lenders to realize upon any material part of the Collateral, such as, without limitation, fraudulent removal, concealment or abscondment thereof, destruction (other than to the extent covered by insurance) or material waste thereof, or failure of Borrower after reasonable demand to maintain or reinstate adequate casualty insurance coverage with respect thereto, Administrative Agent may take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable.

67

17.6     Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that none of the Agent-Related Persons has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by Administrative Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of Borrowers and their Subsidiaries or Affiliates, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent-Related Person to any Lender. Each Lender represents to Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Borrowers and any other Person (other than Lender Group) party to a Loan Document, and all applicable bank regulatory laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to Borrowers. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Borrowers and any other Person (other than Lender Group) party to a Loan Document. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly herein required to be furnished to Lenders by Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of Borrowers and any other Person party to a Loan Document that may come into the possession of any of the Agent-Related Persons.

17.7     Costs and Expenses. Administrative Agent may incur and pay Lender Group Expenses to the extent Administrative Agent reasonably deems necessary or appropriate for the performance and fulfillment of its functions, powers, and obligations pursuant to the Loan Documents, including without limiting the generality of the foregoing, court costs, reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses, costs of collection by outside collection agencies and auctioneer fees and costs of security guards or insurance premiums paid to maintain the Collateral, whether or not Borrowers are obligated to reimburse Administrative Agent or Lenders for such expenses pursuant to the Loan Agreement or otherwise. Administrative Agent is authorized and directed to deduct and retain sufficient amounts from Collections received by Administrative Agent to reimburse Administrative Agent for such out-of-pocket costs and expenses prior to the distribution of any amounts to Lenders. If Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such costs and expenses from Collections received by Administrative Agent, each Lender hereby agrees that it is and shall be obligated to pay to or reimburse Administrative Agent for the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof. The undertaking in this Section 17.7 shall survive the payment of all Obligations hereunder and the resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent.

17.8     Administrative Agent in Individual Capacity. The Person hereunder designated as Administrative Agent and its respective Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with Borrowers and their Subsidiaries and Affiliates and any other Person (other than Lender Group) party to any Loan Documents as though such Person was not Administrative Agent hereunder, and, in each case, without notice to or consent of the other members of Lender Group. The other members of Lender Group acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, such Person or its respective Affiliates may receive information regarding Borrowers or their Affiliates and any other Person (other than Lender Group) party to any Loan Documents that is subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of Borrowers or such other Person and that prohibit the disclosure of such information to Lenders, and Lenders acknowledge that, in such circumstances (and in the absence of a waiver of such confidentiality obligations, which waiver Administrative Agent will use its reasonable best efforts to obtain), Administrative Agent shall not be under any obligation to provide such information to them.

68

17.9     Successor Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to Lenders and Borrower Representative. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Majority Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of Borrower Representative (other than during the existence of an Event of Default, and such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), to appoint a successor Administrative Agent for Lenders. If no such successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Majority Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any Collateral held by Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such Collateral until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time as the Majority Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section 17.9. In any such event, upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section 17.9). The fees payable by Borrowers to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between Borrower Representative and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of Articles 14 and 17 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

17.10     Lender in Individual Capacity. Subject to any other contractual arrangement with Melody or any of its Affiliates or any Related Fund, any Lender and its respective Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with Borrowers and their Subsidiaries and Affiliates and any other Person (other than Lender Group) party to any Loan Documents as though such Lender were not a Lender hereunder without notice to or consent of the other members of Lender Group. The other members of Lender Group acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, such Lender and its respective Affiliates may receive information regarding Borrowers or their Affiliates and any other Person (other than Lender Group) party to any Loan Documents that is subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of Borrowers or such other Person and that prohibit the disclosure of such information to Lenders, and Lenders acknowledge that, in such circumstances (and in the absence of a waiver of such confidentiality obligations, which waiver such Lender will use its reasonable best efforts to obtain), such Lender shall not be under any obligation to provide such information to them.

17.11     Collateral Matters.

(a)     Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize Administrative Agent, at its option and in its sole discretion, to release any Lien on any Collateral (i) upon Security Termination; (ii) constituting property being sold or disposed of if a release is required or desirable in connection therewith and if Borrower Representative certifies to Administrative Agent that the sale or disposition is permitted under Section 7.4 and the other Loan Documents (and Administrative Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry); (iii) constituting property in which Borrowers do not own any interest at the time the security interest was granted or at any time thereafter; or (iv) constituting property leased to any Borrower under a lease that has expired or is terminated in a transaction permitted under this Agreement. Except as provided above, Administrative Agent will not execute and deliver a release of any Lien on any Collateral without the prior written authorization of (y) if the release is of all or a substantial portion of the Collateral, all of Lenders, or (z) otherwise, the Majority Lenders; provided, however, in the event the value of such Collateral is less than $50,000, Administrative Agent may execute and deliver a release of any Lien on any such Collateral without the prior written authorization of any Lender. Upon request by Administrative Agent or Borrower Representative at any time, Lenders will confirm in writing Administrative Agent’s authority to release any such Liens on particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 17.11; provided, however, that (1) Administrative Agent shall not be required to execute any document necessary to evidence such release on terms that, in Administrative Agent’s opinion, would expose Administrative Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Lien without recourse, representation, or warranty, and (2) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect, or impair the Obligations or any Liens (other than those expressly being released) upon (or obligations of Borrowers in respect of) all interests retained by Borrowers, including, the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral.

69

(b)     Administrative Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any of Lenders to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by any Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries or is cared for, protected, or insured or has been encumbered, or that Administrative Agent’s Liens have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected, or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to Administrative Agent pursuant to any of the Loan Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, Administrative Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion given Administrative Agent’s own interest in the Collateral in its capacity as one of Lenders and that Administrative Agent shall have no other duty or liability whatsoever to any Lender as to any of the foregoing, except as otherwise provided herein.

17.12     Right of Setoff; Sharing of Payments.

(a)     If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of or any Loan Party against any and all of the obligations of such Loan Party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of such Loan Party may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender may have. Each Lender agrees to notify Borrower Representative and Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

(b)     If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or other obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon or other such obligations greater than its Pro Rata Share thereof as provided herein, then Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and such other obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them, provided that:

70

(i)     if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and

(ii)     the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by Borrowers pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to Borrowers or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply).

Each Loan Party consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against each Loan Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of each Loan Party in the amount of such participation.

17.13     Agency for Perfection. Administrative Agent hereby appoints each other Lender as its agent (and each Lender hereby accepts such appointment) for the purpose of perfecting Administrative Agent’s Liens in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC can be perfected only by possession. Should any Lender obtain possession of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify Administrative Agent thereof, and, promptly upon Administrative Agent’s request therefor shall deliver such Collateral to Administrative Agent or in accordance with Administrative Agent’s instructions.

17.14     Payments by Administrative Agent to Lenders. All payments to be made by Administrative Agent to Lenders shall be made by bank wire transfer or internal transfer of immediately available funds pursuant to such wire transfer instructions as each party may have designated and as reflected in the Register. Concurrently with each such payment, Administrative Agent shall identify whether such payment (or any portion thereof) represents principal, premium, or interest of the Obligations.

17.15     Concerning the Collateral and Related Loan Documents. Each member of Lender Group authorizes and directs Administrative Agent to enter into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents relating to the Collateral, for the benefit of the Secured Parties. Each member of Lender Group agrees that any action taken by Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents relating to the Collateral and the exercise by Administrative Agent of its powers set forth therein or herein, together with such other powers that are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be binding upon all of Lenders.

17.16     Several Obligations; No Liability. Notwithstanding that certain of the Loan Documents now or hereafter may have been or will be executed only by or in favor of Administrative Agent in its capacity as such, and not by or in favor of Lenders, any and all obligations on the part of Administrative Agent (if any) to make any credit available hereunder shall constitute the several (and not joint) obligations of the respective Lenders on a ratable basis, according to their respective Commitments to make one or more Loans in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed the amount of their respective Commitments. Nothing contained herein shall confer upon any Lender any interest in, or subject any Lender to any liability for, or in respect of, the business, assets, profits, losses, or liabilities of any other Lender. Each Lender shall be solely responsible for notifying its Participants of any matters relating to the Loan Documents to the extent any such notice may be required, and no Lender shall have any obligation, duty, or liability to any Participant of any other Lender. Except as provided in Section 17.7, no member of Lender Group shall have any liability for the acts of any other member of Lender Group. No Lender shall be responsible to any Loan Party or any other Person for any failure by any other Lender to fulfill its obligations to make credit available hereunder, nor to advance for it or on its behalf in connection with its Commitment, nor to take any other action on its behalf hereunder or in connection with the financing contemplated herein.

71

17.17     Secured Parties. No Secured Party that is not a Lender that obtains the benefits of any provision hereof, any other Loan Document or the Collateral shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document or otherwise in respect of the Collateral (including the release or impairment of any Collateral); it being understood and agreed that the rights and benefits of any such Secured Party under the Loan Documents consist exclusively of such Secured Party’s right to share in payments and collections out of the Collateral as more fully set forth herein. In connection with any such distribution of payments and collections, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to assume no amounts are due to any such Secured Party unless such Secured Party has notified Administrative Agent in writing of the amount of any such liability owed to it prior to such distribution.

18. GENERAL PROVISIONS.

18.1     Effectiveness. This Agreement shall be binding and deemed effective when executed by Borrowers and each member of Lender Group whose signature is provided for on the signature pages hereof.

18.2     Joint and Several Obligations. Each Borrower has determined that it is in the best interest and in pursuance of its legitimate business purposes to induce Lenders to extend credit to the Borrowers pursuant to this Agreement. Each Borrower acknowledges and represents the making of the Loans to Borrowers benefits each Borrower individually and as a group. Accordingly, each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that it has joint and several liability on all Obligations (as a principal and not as a surety, guarantor or other accommodation party) and that such liability is absolute and unconditional and shall not in any manner be affected or impaired by any acts or omissions whatsoever by Administrative Agent or any Lender, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Borrower’s joint and several liability on the Obligations shall not be impaired by any acceptance by Administrative Agent or any Lender of any other security for or guarantors upon the Obligations under this Agreement or any  other Loan Document or by any failure, neglect or omission on Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s part to resort to any one or all of Borrowers for payment of the Obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or to realize upon or protect any collateral security therefor. Each Borrower’s joint and several liability hereunder shall not in any manner be impaired or affected by who receives or uses the proceeds of the Loans or for what purposes such proceeds are used, and each Borrower waives notice of requests for extensions of credit issued by, and the Loans made to or for the account of, any other Borrower. Such joint and several liability of each Borrower shall also not be impaired or affected by (and each Lender and Administrative Agent, without notice to anyone, is hereby authorized to make from time to time) any sale, pledge, surrender, compromise, settlement, release, renewal, extension, indulgence, alteration, substitution, exchange, change in, modification or disposition of any collateral security for the Obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or of any guaranty thereof or the invalidity, unenforceability or illegality of this Agreement or any other Loan Document as to any Borrower. In order to enforce payment of the Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, foreclose or otherwise realize on any collateral security therefor, and to exercise the rights granted to Lenders and/or Administrative Agent hereunder and thereunder and under applicable law, no Lender nor the Administrative Agent shall be under any obligation at any time to first resort to any collateral security, property, liens or any other rights or remedies whatsoever, and Lenders and/or Administrative Agent shall have the right to enforce the Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents irrespective of whether or not other proceedings or steps are pending seeking resort to or realization upon or from any of the foregoing. Each Borrower expressly waives and surrenders any defense to its joint and several liability on the Obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document based upon any of the foregoing. In furtherance thereof, each Borrower agrees that wherever in this Agreement it is provided that a Borrower is liable for a payment such obligation is the joint and several obligation of each Borrower.

Neither this Agreement nor any uncertainty or ambiguity herein shall be construed or resolved against Administrative Agent, Lender Group or Borrowers, whether under any rule of construction or otherwise.

The Borrower Representative agrees to act as such contractual representative upon the express conditions contained in this Article 19. Additionally, the Borrowers hereby appoint the Borrower Representative as their agent to receive all of the proceeds of the Loans in any account designated by Borrower Representative, at which time the Borrower Representative shall promptly disburse such Loans to the appropriate Borrower. The Administrative Agent, Lenders, and their respective Affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, agents or employees, shall not be liable to the Borrower Representative or any Borrower for any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Borrower Representative or Borrowers pursuant to this Section 19.1. Borrowers hereby jointly and severally agree to indemnify Administrative Agent and each Lender and hold Administrative Agent and each Lender harmless against any and all liability, expense, loss or claim of damage or injury, made against Administrative Agent or any Lender by any Loan Party or any other third party whosoever, arising from or incurred by reason of any Lender relying on any instructions or notices of the Borrower Representative or by reason of Administrative Agent or such Lender delivering notices or communications solely to such Borrower Representative as provided herein.
