If any portion of any such amount repaid (or deemed to be repaid) to the Swingline Lender shall be recovered by or on behalf of the Borrower from the Swingline Lender in any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding or otherwise, the loss of the amount so recovered shall be shared ratably among all the Lenders in the manner contemplated by Section 2.15(b).

Upon one (1) Business Day’s prior notice from the Swingline Lender, each Lender (other than the Swingline Lender) will make available to the Administrative Agent at its office referred to in Section 11.4 (or at such other location as the Administrative Agent may designate) an amount, in Dollars and in immediately available funds, equal to its respective participation.

(g) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the obligation of each Lender (other than the Swingline Lender) to make Revolving Loans for the purpose of repaying any Refunded Swingline Loans pursuant to subsection (e) above and each such Lender’s obligation to purchase a participation in any unpaid Swingline Loans pursuant to

subsection (f) above shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance or event whatsoever, including, without limitation, (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Lender may have against the Swingline Lender, the Administrative Agent, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuance of any Default or Event of Default, (iii) any adverse change in the business, operations, properties, assets, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, (iv) any breach of this Agreement or the Sweep Program by any party hereto, (v) whether the Sweep Program is in effect or (vi) the failure of the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 or elsewhere herein to be satisfied.

(a) The Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to disburse the proceeds of each Borrowing in accordance with the terms of any written instructions from any of the Authorized Officers or pursuant to the terms of the Sweep Program, as applicable, provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be obligated under any circumstances to forward amounts to any account not listed in an Account Designation Letter or pursuant to the Sweep Program. The Borrower may at any time deliver to the Administrative Agent an Account Designation Letter listing any additional accounts or deleting any accounts listed in a previous Account Designation Letter.

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent has received, prior to 1:00 p.m., Charlotte time, on the relevant Borrowing Date, written notice from a Lender that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s ratable portion, if any, of the relevant Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds on such Borrowing Date in accordance with the applicable provisions of Section 2.2, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, but shall not be obligated to, make a corresponding amount available to the Borrower on such Borrowing Date. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have made such portion available to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall have made such corresponding amount available to the Borrower, such Lender, on the one hand, and the Borrower, on the other, severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount, together with interest thereon for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, and (ii) in the case of payment to be made by the Borrower, at the rate of interest applicable at such time to the Type of Loans comprising such Borrowing, as determined under the provisions of Section 2.8. If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Loan as part of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the

Loan to be made by such other Lender as part of any Borrowing. Any such repayment by the Borrower shall not prejudice its rights with respect to a Lender who has not made its portion of a Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent.

(c) The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans, to fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 11.1(c) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan, to fund any such participation or to make any such payment on any date shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation, if any, hereunder to do so on such date, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan, purchase its participation or to make any such payment required hereunder.

(d) Each Lender may, at its option, make and maintain any Loan at, to or for the account of any of its Lending Offices, provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan to or for the account of such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

2.4 Evidence of Debt; Notes.

(a) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to the applicable Lending Office of such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lending Office of such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lending Office of such Lender from time to time under this Agreement.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall maintain the Register pursuant to Section 11.6(c), and a subaccount for each Lender, in which Register and subaccounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the amount of each such Loan and Type of each such Loan and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder in respect of each such Loan and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrower in respect of each such Loan and each Lender’s share thereof.

(c) The entries made in the accounts, Register and subaccounts maintained pursuant to Section 2.4(b) (and, if consistent with the entries of the Administrative Agent, Section 2.4(a)) shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrower therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such account, such Register or such subaccount, as applicable, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay (with applicable interest) the Loans actually made to the Borrower by such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(d) The Loans made by each Lender shall, if requested by the applicable Lender (which request shall be made to the Administrative Agent), be evidenced (i) in the case of Revolving Loans, by a Revolving Note, and (ii) in the case of the Swingline Loans, by a Swingline Note, in each case executed by the Borrower and payable to the order of such Lender.

Each Note shall be entitled to all of the benefits of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and shall be subject to the provisions hereof and thereof.

2.5 Termination and Reduction of Commitments and Swingline Commitment.

(a) The Commitments shall be automatically and permanently terminated on the Termination Date. The Swingline Commitment shall be automatically and permanently terminated on the Swingline Maturity Date, unless sooner terminated pursuant to any other provision of this Section 2.5 or Section 9.2.

(b) At any time and from time to time after the date hereof, upon not less than five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of a termination or reduction of the Unutilized Swingline Commitment, the Swingline Lender), the Borrower may terminate in whole or reduce in part the aggregate Unutilized Commitments or the Unutilized Swingline Commitment, provided that any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of not less than $10,000,000 or, if greater, an integral multiple of $5,000,000 in excess thereof ($1,000,000 or if greater, an integral multiple of $100,000 in the case of the Unutilized Swingline Commitment). The amount of any termination or reduction made under this subsection (b) may not thereafter be reinstated.

(c) Each reduction of the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.5 shall be applied ratably among the Lenders according to their respective Commitments. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, any reduction of the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.5 that has the effect of reducing the aggregate Commitments to an amount less than the amount of the Swingline Commitment at such time shall result in an automatic corresponding reduction of the Swingline Commitment to the amount of the aggregate Commitments (as so reduced), without any further action on the part of the Borrower or the Swingline Lender.

2.6 Mandatory Payments and Prepayments.

(a) Except to the extent due or paid sooner pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, (i) the aggregate outstanding principal of the Revolving Loans shall be due and payable in full on the Maturity Date and (ii) the aggregate outstanding principal of the Swingline Loans shall be due and payable in full on the Swingline Maturity Date.

(b) In the event that, at any time, the sum of (x) the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans outstanding at such time, (y) the aggregate Letter of Credit Exposure of all Lenders at such time and (z) the aggregate principal amount of Swingline Loans outstanding at such time (excluding the aggregate amount of any Swingline Loans to be repaid with proceeds of Revolving Loans made on the date of determination) shall exceed the aggregate Commitments at such time (after giving effect to any concurrent termination or reduction thereof), (i) the Borrower will immediately prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Swingline Loans, (ii) to the extent of any excess remaining after prepayment in full of outstanding Swingline Loans, the Borrower will immediately prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans in the amount of such excess, and (iii) to the extent of any excess remaining after prepayment in full of outstanding Swingline Loans and outstanding Revolving Loans, the Borrower will pay into the Cash Collateral Account as cover for Letter of Credit Exposure, as

more particularly described in Section 3.8, and thereupon such cash shall be deemed to reduce the aggregate Letter of Credit Exposure in the amount of such excess.

(c) Each payment or prepayment pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.6 shall be applied ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans being prepaid, in proportion to the principal amount held by each.

(d) Each payment or prepayment of a LIBOR Loan made pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.6 on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto shall be made together with all amounts required under Section 2.18 to be paid as a consequence thereof.

2.7 Voluntary Prepayments.

(a) At any time and from time to time, the Borrower shall have the right to prepay the Loans, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty (except as provided in clause (C) below), (i) pursuant to the Sweep Program, if such program is in effect, with respect to Swingline Loans, or (ii) otherwise upon written notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m., Charlotte time, three (3) Business Days prior to each intended prepayment of LIBOR Loans and one (1) Business Day prior to each intended prepayment of Base Rate Loans (other than LIBOR Market Index Loans and Swingline Loans), provided that (A) each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount of not less than $1,000,000 or, if greater, an integral multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof ($500,000 and $100,000, respectively, in the case of Swingline Loans), (B) no partial prepayment of LIBOR Loans made pursuant to any single Borrowing shall reduce the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the remaining LIBOR Loans under such Borrowing to less than $1,000,000 or to any greater amount not an integral multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof, and (C) unless made together with all amounts required under Section 2.18 to be paid as a consequence of such prepayment, a prepayment of a LIBOR Loan may be made only on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto. Each such notice shall specify the proposed date of such prepayment and the aggregate principal amount and Type of the Loans to be prepaid (and, in the case of LIBOR Loans, the Interest Period of the Borrowing pursuant to which made), and shall be irrevocable and shall bind the Borrower to make such prepayment on the terms specified therein. Loans prepaid pursuant to this subsection (a) may be reborrowed, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

(b) Each prepayment of the Loans made pursuant to subsection (a) above shall be applied ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans being prepaid, in proportion to the principal amount held by each, provided that if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender at the time of any such prepayment, any voluntary prepayment of the Loans shall, if the Administrative Agent so directs at the time of making such voluntary prepayment, first be applied to the Loans of other Lenders as if such Defaulting Lender had no Loans outstanding and the outstanding Loans of such Defaulting Lender were zero.

2.8 Interest.

(a) The Borrower will pay interest in respect of the unpaid principal amount of each Loan, from the date of Borrowing thereof until such principal amount shall be paid in full, at the

rate equal to the sum of the rate provided for in the Sweep Program for Swingline Loans plus the Adjusted LIBOR Rate, as long as the Sweep Program remains in effect, and otherwise (i) at the Adjusted Base Rate, as in effect from time to time during such periods as such Loan is a Base Rate Loan, (ii) at the Adjusted LIBOR Rate, as in effect from time to time during such periods as such Loan is a LIBOR Loan, and (iii) at the Adjusted LIBOR Market Index Rate, as in effect from time to time during such periods as such Loan is a LIBOR Market Index Loan.

(b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any default by the Borrower in the payment of any principal of or interest on any Loan, any fees or other amount hereunder when due (whether at maturity, pursuant to acceleration or otherwise), and (at the election of the Required Lenders) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any other Event of Default, all outstanding principal amounts of the Loans and, to the greatest extent permitted by law, all interest accrued on the Loans and all other accrued and outstanding fees and other amounts hereunder, shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable from time to time thereafter to such Loans (whether the rate provided for in the Sweep Program, the Adjusted Base Rate, the Adjusted LIBOR Rate or the Adjusted LIBOR Market Index Rate) plus 2% (or, in the case of fees and other amounts, at the Adjusted Base Rate plus 2%), and, in each case, such default interest shall be payable on demand. To the greatest extent permitted by law, interest shall continue to accrue after the filing by or against the Borrower of any petition seeking any relief in bankruptcy or under any law pertaining to insolvency or debtor relief.

(i) in respect of each Base Rate Loan and each LIBOR Market Index Loan (including any Base Rate Loan and any LIBOR Market Index Loan or portion thereof paid or prepaid pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.6, except as provided hereinbelow), in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter, beginning with the first such day to occur after the Restatement Effective Date; provided, that in the event the Loans are repaid or prepaid in full and the Commitments have been terminated, then accrued interest in respect of all Base Rate Loans and all LIBOR Market Index Loans shall be payable together with such repayment or prepayment of outstanding principal on the date thereof;

(ii) in respect of each LIBOR Loan (including any LIBOR Loan or portion thereof paid or prepaid pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.6, except as provided hereinbelow), in arrears (y) on the last Business Day of the Interest Period applicable thereto (subject to the provisions of clause (iv) in Section 2.10) and (z) in addition, in the case of a LIBOR Loan with an Interest Period having a duration of six months or longer, on each date on which interest would have been payable under clause (y) above had successive Interest Periods of three months’ duration been applicable to such LIBOR Loan; provided, that in the event all LIBOR Loans made pursuant to a single Borrowing are repaid or prepaid in full, then accrued interest in respect of such LIBOR Loans shall be payable together with such repayment or prepayment on the date thereof;

(iii) in respect of each Swingline Loan, pursuant to the terms of the Sweep Program as long as it remains in effect but otherwise in accordance with clause (i) of this Section 2.8; provided, that in the event the Loans are repaid or prepaid in full and the

Commitments have been terminated, then accrued interest in respect of all Swingline Loans shall be payable together with such repayment or prepayment on the date thereof; and

(iv) in respect of any Loan, at maturity (whether pursuant to acceleration or otherwise) and, after maturity, on demand.

(d) Nothing contained in this Agreement or in any other Credit Document shall be deemed to establish or require the payment of interest to any Lender at a rate in excess of the maximum rate permitted by applicable law. If the amount of interest payable for the account of any Lender on any interest payment date would exceed the maximum amount permitted by applicable law to be charged by such Lender, the amount of interest payable for its account on such interest payment date shall be automatically reduced to such maximum permissible amount. In the event of any such reduction affecting any Lender, if from time to time thereafter the amount of interest payable for the account of such Lender on any interest payment date would be less than the maximum amount permitted by applicable law to be charged by such Lender, then the amount of interest payable for its account on such subsequent interest payment date shall be automatically increased to such maximum permissible amount, provided that at no time shall the aggregate amount by which interest paid for the account of any Lender has been increased pursuant to this sentence exceed the aggregate amount by which interest paid for its account has theretofore been reduced pursuant to the previous sentence.

(e) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders upon determining the interest rate for each Borrowing of LIBOR Loans after its receipt of the relevant Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation, and upon each change in the Adjusted Base Rate; provided, however, that the failure of the Administrative Agent to provide the Borrower or the Lenders with any such notice shall neither affect any obligations of the Borrower or the Lenders hereunder nor result in any liability on the part of the Administrative Agent to the Borrower or any Lender. Each such determination (including each determination of the Reserve Requirement) shall, absent manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all parties hereto.

(f) In the event that any financial statement or Compliance Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 5.11, 6.1 or 6.2 is shown to be inaccurate (regardless of whether this Agreement or the Commitments are in effect when such inaccuracy is discovered), and such inaccuracy, if corrected, would have led to the application of a higher Applicable Margin Percentage for any Lender for any period (an “Applicable Period”) than the Applicable Margin Percentage applied for such Applicable Period, then the Borrower shall immediately (i) deliver to the Administrative Agent a correct Compliance Certificate for such Applicable Period, (ii) determine the Applicable Margin Percentage for such Applicable Period based upon the corrected Compliance Certificate, and (iii) immediately pay to the Administrative Agent the accrued additional interest and commitment fees owing as a result of such increased Applicable Margin Percentage for such Lender for such Applicable Period, which payment shall be promptly applied by the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.12(e). This Section 2.8(f) is in addition to the rights of the Administrative Agent and Lenders with respect to Sections 2.8(b) and 9.1 and other respective rights under this Agreement.

2.9 Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay:

(a) To the Arrangers, for their own respective accounts, on the Restatement Effective Date, the fees required under the Commitment Letter, the Xxxxx Fargo Fee Letter and the BB&T Fee Letter to be paid on the Restatement Effective Date in the amounts due and payable as required by the terms thereof;

(b) To the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender, a commitment fee for each calendar quarter (or portion thereof) for the period from the Restatement Effective Date to the Termination Date, at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Margin Percentage in effect for such fee from time to time during such quarter, on such Lender’s ratable share (based on the proportion that its Commitment bears to the aggregate Commitments) of the average daily aggregate Unutilized Commitments, payable in arrears (i) on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter, beginning with the first such day to occur after the Restatement Effective Date, and (ii) on the Termination Date; provided, however, that no commitment fee shall accrue on the Unutilized Commitment of a Defaulting Lender during any period that such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender;

(c) To the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender, a letter of credit fee for each calendar quarter (or portion thereof) in respect of all Letters of Credit outstanding during such quarter, at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Margin Percentage in effect from time to time during such quarter for Loans that are maintained as LIBOR Loans, on such Lender’s ratable share (based on the proportion that its Commitment bears to the aggregate Commitments) of the daily average aggregate Stated Amount of such Letters of Credit, payable in arrears (i) on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter, beginning with the first such day to occur after the Restatement Effective Date, and (ii) on the later of the Termination Date and the date of termination of the last outstanding Letter of Credit; provided, however, that any letter of credit fees otherwise payable for the account of a Defaulting Lender with respect to any Letter of Credit as to which such Defaulting Lender has not provided Cash Collateral satisfactory to the Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.1(a) shall be payable, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, to the other Lenders in accordance with the upward adjustments in their respective pro rata percentages allocable to such Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.21(a)(iii), with the balance of such fee, if any, payable to the Issuing Lender for its own account;

(d) To the Issuing Lender, for its own account, a fronting fee for each calendar quarter (or portion thereof) in respect of all Letters of Credit outstanding during such quarter, at a rate of 0.125% per annum of the daily average aggregate face amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Lender during such quarter. All such fronting fees shall be payable on (i) the last Business Day of each calendar quarter and (ii) the Maturity Date;

(e) To the Issuing Lender, for its own account, such commissions, issuance fees, transfer fees and other fees and charges incurred in connection with the issuance and administration of each Letter of Credit as are customarily charged from time to time by the Issuing Lender for the performance of such services in connection with similar letters of credit, or as may be otherwise agreed to by the Issuing Lender, but without duplication of amounts payable under subsection (d) above; and

(f) To the Administrative Agent, for its own account, the annual administrative fee described in the Xxxxx Fargo Fee Letter, on the terms, in the amount and at the times set forth therein.

2.10 Interest Periods. Concurrently with the giving of a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation in respect of any Borrowing comprised of Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Market Index Loans to be converted into, or LIBOR Loans to be continued as, LIBOR Loans, the Borrower shall have the right to elect, pursuant to such notice, the interest period (each, an “Interest Period”) to be applicable to such LIBOR Loans, which Interest Period shall, at the option of the Borrower, be a one, two, three or six-month period; provided, however, that:

(i) all LIBOR Loans comprising a single Borrowing shall at all times have the same Interest Period;

(ii) the initial Interest Period for any LIBOR Loan shall commence on the date of the Borrowing of such LIBOR Loan (including the date of any continuation of, or conversion into, such LIBOR Loan), and each successive Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Loan shall commence on the day on which the next preceding Interest Period applicable thereto expires;

(iii) LIBOR Loans may not be outstanding under more than six (6) separate Interest Periods at any one time (for which purpose Interest Periods shall be deemed to be separate even if they are coterminous);

(iv) if any Interest Period otherwise would expire on a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall expire on the next succeeding Business Day unless such next succeeding Business Day falls in another calendar month, in which case such Interest Period shall expire on the immediately preceding Business Day;

(v) the Borrower may not select any Interest Period that begins prior to the third (3^rd) Business Day after the Restatement Effective Date or that expires after the Maturity Date;

(vi) if any Interest Period begins on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month during which such Interest Period would otherwise expire, such Interest Period shall expire on the last Business Day of such calendar month; and

(vii) the Borrower may not select any Interest Period (and consequently, no LIBOR Loans shall be made) if a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation with respect to any Borrowing.

2.11 Conversions and Continuations.

(a) With respect to Revolving Loans, the Borrower shall have the right, on any Business Day occurring on or after the Restatement Effective Date, to elect (i) to convert all or a portion of the outstanding principal amount of any Base Rate Loans or any LIBOR Market Index

Loans into LIBOR Loans, or to convert any LIBOR Loans the Interest Periods for which end on the same day into Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Market Index Loans, or (ii) upon the expiration of any Interest Period, to continue all or a portion of the outstanding principal amount of any LIBOR Loans the Interest Periods for which end on the same day for an additional Interest Period, provided that (w) any such conversion of LIBOR Loans into Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Market Index Loans shall involve an aggregate principal amount of not less than $1,000,000 or, if greater, an integral multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof; any such conversion of Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Market Index Loans into, or continuation of, LIBOR Loans shall involve an aggregate principal amount of not less than $1,000,000 or, if greater, an integral multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof; and no partial conversion of LIBOR Loans made pursuant to a single Borrowing shall reduce the outstanding principal amount of such LIBOR Loans to less than $1,000,000 or to any greater amount not an integral multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof, (x) except as otherwise provided in Section 2.16(d), LIBOR Loans may be converted into Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Market Index Loans only on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto (and, in any event, if a LIBOR Loan is converted into a Base Rate Loan or LIBOR Market Index Loan on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower will pay, upon such conversion, all amounts required under Section 2.18 to be paid as a consequence thereof), (y) no such conversion or continuation shall be permitted with regard to any Swingline Loans, and (z) no conversion of Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Market Index Loans into LIBOR Loans or continuation of LIBOR Loans shall be permitted during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default.

(b) The Borrower shall make each such election by giving the Administrative Agent written notice not later than 11:00 a.m., Charlotte time, three (3) Business Days prior to the intended effective date of any conversion of Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Market Index Loans into, or continuation of, LIBOR Loans and one (1) Business Day prior to the intended effective date of any conversion of LIBOR Loans into Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Market Index Loans. Each such notice (each, a “Notice of Conversion/Continuation”) shall be irrevocable, shall be given in the form of Exhibit B-3 and shall specify (x) the date of such conversion or continuation (which shall be a Business Day), (y) in the case of a conversion into, or a continuation of, LIBOR Loans, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto, and (z) the aggregate amount and Type of the Loans being converted or continued. Upon the receipt of a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, the Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of the proposed conversion or continuation. In the event that the Borrower shall fail to deliver a Notice of Conversion/Continuation as provided herein with respect to any outstanding LIBOR Loans, such LIBOR Loans shall automatically be converted to LIBOR Market Index Loans upon the expiration of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto (unless repaid pursuant to the terms hereof). In the event the Borrower shall have failed to select in a Notice of Conversion/Continuation the duration of the Interest Period to be applicable to any conversion into, or continuation of, LIBOR Loans, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period with a duration of one month.

2.12 Method of Payments; Computations; Apportionment of Payments.

(a) All payments by the Borrower hereunder shall be made without setoff, counterclaim or other defense, in Dollars and in immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders entitled to such payment or the Swingline

Lender, as the case may be (except as otherwise (i) expressly provided herein as to payments required to be made directly to the Issuing Lender and the Lenders and (ii) provided in the Sweep Program) at its office referred to in Section 11.4, prior to 12:00 noon, Charlotte time, on the date payment is due. Any payment made as required hereinabove, but after 12:00 noon, Charlotte time, shall be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day. If any payment falls due on a day that is not a Business Day, then such due date shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day (except that in the case of LIBOR Loans to which the provisions of clause (iv) in Section 2.10 are applicable, such due date shall be the immediately preceding Business Day), and such extension of time shall then be included in the computation of payment of interest, fees or other applicable amounts.

(b) The Administrative Agent will distribute to the Lenders like amounts relating to payments made to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders as follows: (i) if the payment is received by 12:00 noon, Charlotte time, in immediately available funds, the Administrative Agent will make available to each relevant Lender on the same date, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, such Lender’s ratable share of such payment (based on the percentage that the amount of the relevant payment owing to such Lender bears to the total amount of such payment owing to all of the relevant Lenders), and (ii) if such payment is received after 12:00 noon, Charlotte time, or in other than immediately available funds, the Administrative Agent will make available to each such Lender its ratable share of such payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds on the next succeeding Business Day (or in the case of uncollected funds, as soon as practicable after collected). Notwithstanding the foregoing or any contrary provision hereof, if any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it hereunder to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender, then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid. If the Administrative Agent shall not have made a required distribution to the appropriate Lenders as required hereinabove after receiving a payment for the account of such Lenders, the Administrative Agent will pay to each such Lender, on demand, its ratable share of such payment with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate for each day from the date such amount was required to be disbursed by the Administrative Agent until the date repaid to such Lender. The Administrative Agent will distribute to the Issuing Lender like amounts relating to payments made to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender in the same manner, and subject to the same terms and conditions, as set forth hereinabove with respect to distributions of amounts to the Lenders.

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

Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

(d) All computations of interest and fees hereunder (including computations of the Reserve Requirement) shall be made on the basis of a year consisting of (i) in the case of interest on Base Rate Loans and LIBOR Market Index Loans, 365/366 days, as the case may be, or (ii) in all other instances, 360 days; and in each case under (i) and (ii) above, with regard to the actual number of days (including the first day, but excluding the last day) elapsed.

(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document to the contrary, all amounts collected or received by the Administrative Agent or any Lender after acceleration of the Loans pursuant to Section 9.2 shall be applied by the Administrative Agent as follows:

(i) first, to the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ and consultants’ fees irrespective of whether such fees are allowed as a claim after the occurrence of an Event of Default pursuant to Section 9.1(f) or Section 9.1(g)) of the Administrative Agent in connection with enforcing the rights of the Lenders under the Credit Documents;

(ii) second, to the payment of any fees owed to the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any other Credit Document;

(iii) third, to the payment of all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ and consultants’ fees irrespective of whether such fees are allowed as a claim after the occurrence of a an Event of Default pursuant to Section 9.1(f) or Section 9.1(g)) of each of the Lenders in connection with enforcing its rights under the Credit Documents or otherwise with respect to the Obligations owing to such Lender;

(iv) fourth, to the payment of all of the Obligations consisting of accrued fees and interest (including, without limitation, fees incurred and interest accruing at the then applicable rate after the occurrence of an Event of Default pursuant to Section 9.1(f) or Section 9.1(g) irrespective of whether a claim for such fees incurred and interest accruing is allowed in such proceeding);

(v) fifth, to the payment of the outstanding principal amount of the Obligations (including the payment of any outstanding Reimbursement Obligations and the obligation to cash collateralize Letter of Credit Exposure), and including any payment obligations then owing under (A) any Hedge Agreement between the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries and any Hedge Party (to the extent such Hedge Agreement is required or permitted hereunder), including any breakage, termination or other payments due under such Hedge Agreement and any interest accrued thereon and (B) any Cash Management Agreement between the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries and any Cash Management Bank;

(vi) sixth, to the payment of all other Obligations and other obligations that shall have become due and payable under the Credit Documents or otherwise and not repaid; and

(vii) seventh, to the payment of the surplus (if any) to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.

In carrying out the foregoing, (x) amounts received shall be applied in the numerical order provided until exhausted prior to application to the next succeeding category, (y) all amounts shall be apportioned ratably among the Lenders or Hedge Parties in proportion to the amounts of such principal, interest, fees or other Obligations owed to them respectively pursuant to clauses (iii) through (vii) above, and (z) to the extent that any amounts available for distribution pursuant to clause (v) above are attributable to the issued but undrawn amount of outstanding Letters of Credit, such amounts shall be held by the Administrative Agent to cash collateralize Letter of Credit Exposure pursuant to Section 3.8.

2.13 Recovery of Payments.

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

(b) If any amounts distributed by the Administrative Agent to any Lender are subsequently returned or repaid by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower or its representative or successor in interest, whether by court order or by settlement approved by the Lender in question, such Lender will, promptly upon receipt of notice thereof from the Administrative Agent, pay the Administrative Agent such amount. If any such amounts are recovered by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower or its representative or successor in interest, the Administrative Agent will redistribute such amounts to the Lenders on the same basis as such amounts were originally distributed.

2.14 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Loans shall be used (i) to refinance any Indebtedness outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement in full (other than the Existing Letters of Credit), (ii) to pay or reimburse reasonable transaction fees and expenses in connection with the closing of the transactions contemplated hereby and (iii) for working capital, the issuance of Letters of Credit, and general corporate purposes and in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

2.15 Pro Rata Treatment.

(a) Except in the case of Swingline Loans, all fundings, continuations and conversions of Loans shall be made by the Lenders pro rata on the basis of their respective Commitments (in the case of the funding of Loans pursuant to Section 2.2) or on the basis of

their respective outstanding Loans (in the case of continuations and conversions of Loans pursuant to Section 2.11, and additionally in all cases in the event the Commitments for Loans of have expired or have been terminated), as the case may be from time to time. All payments on account of principal of or interest on any Loans, fees or any other Obligations owing to or for the account of any one or more Lenders shall be apportioned ratably among such Lenders in proportion to the amounts of such principal, interest, fees or other Obligations owed to them respectively.

(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 the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the 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 the 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 (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 Section 2.15(b) shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by the Borrower 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 or participations in Reimbursement Obligations or Swingline Loans to any Assignee or Participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section 2.15(b) shall apply). The Borrower 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 the Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. If under the Bankruptcy Code or similar debtor relief laws, any Lender receives a secured claim in lieu of a setoff to which this Section 2.15(b) applies, such Lender shall, to the extent practicable, exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of the Lenders entitled under this Section 2.15(b) to share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim.

2.16 Increased Costs; Change in Circumstances; Illegality.

(a) If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except the Reserve Requirement reflected in the LIBOR Rate) or the Issuing Lender;

(ii) subject any Lender or the Issuing Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any participation in a Letter of Credit or any LIBOR Loan or LIBOR Market Index Loan made by it, or change

the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender or the Issuing Lender in respect thereof (except for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 2.17 and the imposition of, or any change in the rate of, any Excluded Tax payable by such Lender or the Issuing Lender); or

(iii) impose on any Lender or the Issuing Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement, LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Market Index Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Market Index Loans (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loans), or to increase the cost to such Lender or the Issuing Lender of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or the Issuing Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount), then, upon request of such Lender or the Issuing Lender, the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) If any Lender or the Issuing Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or the Issuing Lender or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or such Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) A certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in Section 2.16(a) or Section 2.16(b) and delivered to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten days after receipt thereof.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Lender to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.16 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s right to demand such compensation, provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the Issuing Lender pursuant to

the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.16 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than ninety (90) days prior to the date that such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the ninety (90)-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

(e) If, (i) on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall have determined that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable LIBOR Rate for such Interest Period, (ii) at any time, the Administrative Agent shall have determined that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR Market Index Rate, (iii) on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from the Required Lenders of their determination that the rate of interest referred to in the definition of “LIBOR Rate” upon the basis of which the Adjusted LIBOR Rate for LIBOR Loans is to be determined will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining LIBOR Loans during such Interest Period, or (iv) at any time, the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from the Required Lenders of their determination that the rate of interest referred to in the definition of “LIBOR Market Interest Rate” will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making LIBOR Market Interest Rate Loans, the Administrative Agent will forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Lenders. Upon such notice, (A) all then outstanding LIBOR Loans shall automatically, on the expiration date of the respective Interest Periods for LIBOR Loans, if applicable (unless then repaid in full), be converted into Base Rate Loans, (B) all then outstanding LIBOR Market Index Loans, shall automatically, on the day of such notice, be converted into Base Rate Loans, (C) the obligation of the Lenders to make, to convert Base Rate Loans into, or to continue, LIBOR Loans shall be suspended (including pursuant to the Borrowing to which an Interest Period applies), and (iii) any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation given at any time thereafter with respect to LIBOR Loans shall be deemed to be a request for Base Rate Loans, in each case until the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, as the case may be, shall have determined that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist (and the Required Lenders, if making such determination, shall have so notified the Administrative Agent), and the Administrative Agent shall have so notified the Borrower and the Lenders.

(f) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, if, at any time after the date hereof and from time to time, any Lender shall have determined in good faith that the introduction of or any change in any applicable law, rule or regulation or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance with any guideline or request from any such Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), has or would have the effect of making it unlawful for such Lender to make or to continue to make or maintain LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Market Index Loans, as the case may be, such Lender will forthwith so notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower. Upon such notice, (i) each of such Lender’s then outstanding LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Market Index Loans, as the case may be, shall automatically, on the expiration date of the respective Interest Period applicable to any LIBOR Loans (or, to the extent any such LIBOR Loan may not lawfully be maintained as a LIBOR Loan until such expiration date, upon

such notice) and to the extent not sooner prepaid, be converted into a Base Rate Loan, (ii) the obligation of such Lender to make, to convert Base Rate Loans into, or to continue, LIBOR Loans shall be suspended (including pursuant to any Borrowing for which the Administrative Agent has received a Notice of Borrowing but for which the Borrowing Date has not arrived), and (iii) any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation given at any time thereafter with respect to LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Market Index Loans, as the case may be, shall, as to such Lender, be deemed to be a request for a Base Rate Loan, in each case until such Lender shall have determined that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist and shall have so notified the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall have so notified the Borrower.

2.17 Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Credit Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, provided that if the Borrower shall be required by applicable law to deduct 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 (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.17) the Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) Without limiting the provisions of Section 2.17(a), the Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the Issuing Lender, within ten days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.17) paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender or the Issuing Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the Issuing Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

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

(e) Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is resident for tax purposes, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments hereunder or under any other Credit Document shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is resident for tax purposes in the United States, any Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, but only if such Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do so), whichever of the following is applicable:

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

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

(iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Internal Revenue Code and (y) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, or

(iv) any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States Federal withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

(f) If the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.17, it shall pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 2.17 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as

the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Lender in the event the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This Section 2.17(f) shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

2.18 Compensation. The Borrower will compensate each Lender upon demand for all losses, expenses and liabilities (including, without limitation, any loss, expense or liability incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds required by such Lender to fund or maintain LIBOR Loans) that such Lender may incur or sustain (i) if for any reason (other than a default by such Lender) a Borrowing or continuation of, or conversion into, a LIBOR Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation, (ii) if any repayment, prepayment or conversion of any LIBOR Loan occurs on a date other than the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a consequence of any assignment made pursuant to Section 2.19(a) or any acceleration of the maturity of the Loans pursuant to Section 9.2), (iii) if any prepayment of any LIBOR Loan is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by the Borrower or (iv) as a consequence of any other failure by the Borrower to make any payments with respect to any LIBOR Loan when due hereunder. Calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under this Section 2.18 shall be made as though such Lender had actually funded its relevant LIBOR Loan through the purchase of a Eurodollar deposit bearing interest at the LIBOR Rate in an amount equal to the amount of such LIBOR Loan, having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period; provided, however, that each Lender may fund its LIBOR Loans in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumption shall be utilized only for the calculation of amounts payable under this Section 2.18. A certificate (which shall be in reasonable detail) showing the bases for the determinations set forth in this Section 2.18 by any Lender as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.18 shall be submitted by such Lender to the Borrower either directly or through the Administrative Agent. Determinations set forth in any such certificate made in good faith for purposes of this Section 2.18 of any such losses, expenses or liabilities shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

2.19 Replacement of Lenders; Mitigation of Costs.

(a) The Borrower may, at any time at its sole expense and effort, require any Lender (w) that has requested compensation from the Borrower under Sections 2.16(a) or 2.16(b) or payments from the Borrower under Section 2.17, (x) the obligation of which to make or maintain LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Market Index Loans has been suspended under Section 2.16(f) or (y) that is a Defaulting Lender or (z) that is a Non-Consenting Lender, in any case upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 11.6), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Credit

Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that:

(i) the Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 11.6(b)(iv);

(ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and any funded participations in Letters of Credit not refinanced through the Borrowing of Revolving Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Credit Documents (including any amounts under Section 2.18 from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);

(iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a request for compensation under Sections 2.16(a) or 2.16(b) or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.17, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and

(iv) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Requirements of Law.

If a Lender is subject to this Section 2.19(a) solely because of the circumstances described in (A) clauses (w) and (x) hereof, such Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply or (B) clause (y) hereof, notwithstanding Section 2.5(c), the Borrower may reduce the aggregate outstanding Commitments on a non-ratable basis (applied solely to the Commitment of the Defaulting Lender) by an amount equal to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment in order to remove such Defaulting Lender as a Lender under this Agreement provided that, at such time, no Loans are then outstanding. Any such assignment, delegation or reduction elected by Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.19 shall be without prejudice to any right or remedy available to Borrower hereunder or under applicable law.

(b) If any Lender requests compensation under Sections 2.16(a) or 2.16(b), or the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to Section 2.16(f), then 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 Sections 2.16(a), 2.16(b) or 2.17, as the case may be, in the future, or eliminate the need for the notice pursuant to Section 2.16(f), as applicable, and (ii) in each case, would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

2.20 Increase in Commitments.

(a) The Borrower shall have the right, at any time and from time to time after the Restatement Effective Date by written notice to and in consultation with the Administrative Agent, to request an increase in the aggregate Commitments (each such requested increase, a “Commitment Increase”), by having one or more existing Lenders increase their respective Commitments then in effect (each, an “Increasing Lender”), by adding as a Lender with a new Commitment hereunder one or more Persons that are not already Lenders (each, an “Additional Lender”), or a combination thereof; provided that (i) any such request for a Commitment Increase shall be in a minimum amount of $25,000,000, (ii) immediately after giving effect to any Commitment Increase, (y) the aggregate Commitments shall not exceed $300,000,000 and (z) the aggregate of all Commitment Increases effected shall not exceed $100,000,000, (iii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the applicable Commitment Increase Date (as hereinafter defined) or shall result from any Commitment Increase, (iv) immediately after giving effect to any Commitment Increase (including any Borrowings in connection therewith and the application of the proceeds thereof), the Borrower shall be in compliance with the financial covenants contained in ARTICLE VII, and (v) the Borrower shall give the existing Lenders the right of first refusal for participating in any such Commitment Increase by providing such notice to the Administrative Agent ten (10) Business Days before making a request to any Person that is not already a Lender. An existing Lender shall have priority over Additional Lenders to participate in such requested Commitment Increase if it provides written notice of its election to participate within ten (10) Business Days of the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such notice. Such notice from the Borrower shall specify the requested amount of the Commitment Increase. No Lender shall have any obligation to become an Increasing Lender. Any fees paid by the Borrower for a Commitment Increase to an Increasing Lender, an Additional Lender, the Administrative Agent or Xxxxx Fargo, as Arranger, shall be for their own account and shall be in an amount, if any, mutually agreed upon by each such party and the Borrower, in each party’s sole discretion. Nothing contained in this Section 2.20 shall be construed to obligate the Borrower to pay any fee for a Commitment Increase to an Increasing Lender, an Additional Lender, the Administrative Agent either Arranger.

(b) Each Additional Lender must be approved in writing by the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender. The Borrower and each Additional Lender shall execute a joinder agreement, and the Borrower and each Lender shall execute all such other documentation as the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may reasonably require including without limitation the documentation for the amendment referred to in Section 2.20(d)(i)(A), all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to evidence the Commitment adjustments referred to in Section 2.20(e).

(c) If the aggregate Commitments are increased in accordance with this Section 2.20, the Borrower (in consultation with the Administrative Agent), Increasing Lender(s) (if any) and Additional Lender(s) (if any) shall agree upon the effective date (the “Commitment Increase Date,” which shall be a Business Day not less than thirty (30) days prior to the Termination Date). The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of such increase and the Commitment Increase Date.

(d) Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Section 2.20 to the contrary, the Borrower shall not incur any Revolving Loans pursuant to any Commitment Increase (and no Commitment Increase shall be effective) unless the conditions set forth in Section 2.20(a) as well as the following conditions precedent are satisfied on the applicable Commitment Increase Date:

(i) The Administrative Agent shall have received the following, each dated the Commitment Increase Date and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent:

(A) an amendment to this Agreement signed by the Increasing Lenders (if any) and Additional Lenders (if any), setting forth the reallocation of Commitments referred to in Section 2.20(e), together with all other documentation required by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.20(b);

(B) an instrument, duly executed by the Borrower and each other Subsidiary Guarantor, if any, acknowledging and reaffirming its obligations under the Subsidiary Guaranty, and the other Credit Documents to which it is a party;

(C) a certificate of the secretary or an assistant secretary of the Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor, certifying to and attaching the resolutions adopted by the board of directors (or similar governing body) of such party approving or consenting to such Commitment Increase;

(D) a certificate of a Financial Officer of the Borrower, certifying that (x) all representations and warranties of the Borrower and the Subsidiary Guarantors contained in this Agreement and the other Credit Documents are true and correct in all material respects as of the Commitment Increase Date (except to the extent such representation and warranty is qualified by materiality, in which case, such representation and warranty shall be true and correct in all respects or except to the extent that such representation and warranty is made as of a specific date, in which case, such representation and warranty shall be true and correct as of such date), (y) immediately after giving effect to such Commitment Increase (including any Borrowings in connection therewith and the application of the proceeds thereof), the Borrower is in compliance with the financial covenants contained in ARTICLE VII, and (z) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, both immediately before and after giving effect to such Commitment Increase (including any Borrowings in connection therewith and the application of the proceeds thereof); and

(E) an opinion or opinions of counsel for the Borrower and the Subsidiary Guarantors, addressed to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, together with such other documents, instruments and certificates as the Administrative Agent shall have reasonably requested;

(ii) In the case of any Borrowing of Revolving Loans in connection with such Commitment Increase for the purpose of funding a Permitted Acquisition, the applicable

conditions set forth in this Agreement with respect to Permitted Acquisitions shall have been satisfied.

(e) On the Commitment Increase Date, (i) the aggregate principal outstanding amount of the Revolving Loans (the “Initial Loans”) immediately prior to giving effect to the Commitment Increase shall be deemed to be repaid, (ii) immediately after the effectiveness of the Commitment Increase, the Borrower shall be deemed to have made new Borrowings of Revolving Loans (the “Subsequent Borrowings”) in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Initial Loans and of the Types and for the Interest Periods specified in a Notice of Borrowing delivered to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.2(b), (iii) each Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds an amount equal to the difference, if positive, between (y) such Lender’s pro rata percentage (calculated after giving effect to the Commitment Increase) of the Subsequent Borrowings and (z) such Lender’s pro rata percentage (calculated without giving effect to the Commitment Increase) of the Initial Loans, (iv) after the Administrative Agent receives the funds specified in clause (iii) above, the Administrative Agent shall pay to each Lender the portion of such funds equal to the difference, if positive, between (y) such Lender’s pro rata percentage (calculated without giving effect to the Commitment Increase) of the Initial Loans and (z) such Lender’s pro rata percentage (calculated after giving effect to the Commitment Increase) of the amount of the Subsequent Borrowings, (v) the Lenders shall be deemed to hold the Subsequent Borrowings ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments (calculated after giving effect to the Commitment Increase), (vi) the Borrower shall pay all accrued but unpaid interest on the Initial Loans to the Lenders entitled thereto, and (vii) Schedule 1.1 shall be amended to reflect the Commitments of all Lenders after giving effect to the Commitment Increase. The deemed payments made pursuant to clause (i) above in respect of each LIBOR Loan shall be subject to indemnification by the Borrower pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.18 if the Commitment Increase Date occurs other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto.

2.21 Defaulting Lenders.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law:

(i) Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Required Lenders and in Section 11.5.

(ii) Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to ARTICLE X or otherwise) shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender hereunder; third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent or requested by the Issuing Lender or the

Swingline Lender, to be held as Cash Collateral for future funding obligations of such Defaulting Lender in respect of any participation in any Letter of Credit or Swingline Loan; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of such Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender against that Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or any Letter of Credit Exposure in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 5.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and obligations in respect of Letters of Credit owed to, all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or obligations in respect of Letters of Credit owed to, such Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.21 shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii) All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s Letters of Credit Exposure and its Swingline Exposure shall automatically (effective on the day such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender) be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Credit Exposures (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the extent that (A) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing (and, unless the Borrower shall have otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at the time, the Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such condition is satisfied at such time), and (B) such reallocation does not cause the sum of (x) the total principal amount of Revolving Loans, (y) the Letter of Credit Exposure and (z) the principal amount of Swingline Loans for any non-Defaulting Lender outstanding at such time, to exceed such non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitment.

(iv) If the reallocation described in clause (iii) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, within two (2) Business Days following notice by the Administrative Agent, Cash Collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure and its Swingline Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (iii) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section

2.21(c) for so long as such Swingline Loans are outstanding. The Borrower shall be permitted to Cash Collateralize such Letter of Credit Exposure and Swingline Exposure using Loans to the extent available to Borrower in accordance with this Agreement, including the satisfaction of the conditions to Borrowing in Section 4.2.

(b) If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Revolving Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments (without giving effect to Section 2.21(a)(iii)); whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

(c) At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within two (2) Business Days upon the request of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to cover all Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 2.21(a)(iii) and any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).

(i) All Cash Collateral (other than credit support not constituting funds subject to deposit) shall be maintained in blocked deposit accounts with the Administrative Agent. The Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Lender, such Lender, hereby grants to (and subjects to the control of) the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders (including the Swingline Lender), and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein, and all other property so provided as collateral pursuant hereto, and in all proceeds of the foregoing, all as security for the obligations to which such Cash Collateral may be applied pursuant to clause (ii) below. If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the applicable Fronting Exposure and other obligations secured thereby, the Borrower or the relevant Defaulting Lender will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency.

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under any of this Section 2.21 in respect of Letters of Credit or

Swingline Loans shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of the specific Letter of Credit Exposure or Swingline Loans, obligations to fund participations therein (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) and other obligations for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may be provided for herein.

(iii) Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Fronting Exposure or other obligations shall be released promptly following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure or other obligations giving rise thereto (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender (or, as appropriate, its assignee)), or (ii) the Administrative Agent’s good faith determination that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided, however, (x) that Cash Collateral furnished by or on behalf of a Loan Party shall not be released during the continuance of a Default (and following application as provided in this Section 2.21 may be otherwise applied in accordance with Section 2.15), and (y) the Person providing Cash Collateral and each applicable Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender may agree that Cash Collateral shall not be released but instead held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations.

ARTICLE III

LETTERS OF CREDIT

3.1 Issuance; Existing Letters of Credit. Subject to and upon the terms and conditions herein set forth, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Issuing Lender will, at any time and from time to time on and after the Restatement Effective Date and prior to the earlier of (i) the seventh day prior to the Maturity Date and (ii) the Termination Date, and upon request by the Borrower in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.2, issue for the account of the Borrower one or more irrevocable standby letters of credit denominated in Dollars and in a form customarily used or otherwise approved by the Issuing Lender (together with all amendments, modifications and supplements thereto, substitutions therefor and renewals and restatements thereof, collectively, the “Letters of Credit”). By their execution of this Agreement, the Borrower, Xxxxx Fargo, and the Lenders hereby agree that effective as of the Restatement Effective Date (i) the letters of credit listed on Schedule 3.1 (the “Existing Letters of Credit”) shall be Letters of Credit under this Agreement and subject to the terms hereof, (ii) Xxxxx Fargo shall be the Issuing Lender hereunder with respect to the Existing Letters of Credit, and (iii) the applicable provisions of the Existing Credit Agreement with respect to the Existing Letters of Credit are replaced by this Agreement. The Stated Amount of each Letter of Credit shall not be less than $100,000 unless such amount is acceptable to the Issuing Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing:

(a) No Letter of Credit shall be issued if its Stated Amount, upon issuance, (i) when added to the aggregate Letter of Credit Exposure of the Lenders at such time, would exceed $150,000,000, (ii) when added to the sum of (x) the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans outstanding at such time, (y) the aggregate Letter of Credit Exposure of all Lenders at such time and (z) the aggregate principal amount of Swingline Loans outstanding at such time, would exceed the aggregate Commitments at such time or (iii) any Lender is at that time a

Defaulting Lender, unless the Issuing Lender has entered into an arrangement, including the delivery of Cash Collateral, satisfactory to the Issuing Lender (in its sole discretion) with the Borrower or such Lender to eliminate the Issuing Lender’s actual or potential Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 2.21(a)(iii)) with respect to the Defaulting Lender arising from either the Letter of Credit then proposed to be issued or that Letter of Credit and all other Letter of Credit Exposure as to which the Issuing Lender has actual or potential Fronting Exposure, as it may elect in its sole discretion;

(b) No Letter of Credit shall be issued that by its terms expires later than the seventh day prior to the Maturity Date or, in any event, more than one (1) year after its date of issuance; provided, however, that a Letter of Credit may, if requested by the Borrower, provide by its terms, and on terms acceptable to the Issuing Lender, for renewal for successive periods of one year or less (but not beyond the seventh day prior to the Maturity Date), unless and until the Issuing Lender shall have delivered a notice of nonrenewal to the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit and provided further that any Letter of Credit issued, extended or renewed no later than thirty (30) days prior to the Maturity Date may have an expiration date after the Maturity Date so long as on or before the Maturity Date, the Borrower shall have deposited with the Administrative Agent an amount in immediately available funds (which funds shall be held as collateral pursuant to a Cash Collateral Account) equal to the aggregate amount available for drawing under such Letter of Credit;

(c) Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, or otherwise will benefit, a Subsidiary of the Borrower, the Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the Issuing Lender hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit (and the Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the benefit of its Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of the Borrower and that the Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Subsidiaries); and

(d) The Issuing Lender shall be under no obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if, at the time of such proposed issuance, (i) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall purport by its terms to enjoin or restrain the Issuing Lender from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Requirement of Law applicable to the Issuing Lender or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the Issuing Lender shall prohibit, or request that the Issuing Lender refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon the Issuing Lender with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction not in effect on the Restatement Effective Date or any reserve or capital requirement (for which the Issuing Lender is not otherwise compensated) not in effect on the Restatement Effective Date and that the Issuing Lender in good xxxxx xxxxx material to it, or any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense that was not applicable, in effect or known to the Issuing Lender as of the Restatement Effective Date and that the Issuing Lender in good xxxxx xxxxx material to it, or (ii) the Issuing Lender shall have actual knowledge, or shall have received notice from any Lender, prior to the issuance of such Letter of Credit that one or more of the conditions specified in Sections 4.1 (if applicable) or 4.2 are not then satisfied (or have not been waived in writing as required herein) or that the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate the provisions of subsection (a) above.

3.2 Notices. Whenever the Borrower desires the issuance of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower will give the Issuing Lender written notice with a copy to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m., Charlotte time, three (3) Business Days (or such shorter period as is acceptable to the Issuing Lender in any given case) prior to the requested date of issuance thereof. Each such notice (each, a “Letter of Credit Notice”) shall be irrevocable, shall be given in the form of Exhibit B-4 and shall specify (i) the requested date of issuance, which shall be a Business Day, (ii) the requested Stated Amount and expiry date of the Letter of Credit, and (iii) the name and address of the requested beneficiary or beneficiaries of the Letter of Credit. The Borrower will also complete any application procedures and documents required by the Issuing Lender in connection with the issuance of any Letter of Credit. Upon its issuance of any Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender will promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such issuance, and the Administrative Agent will give prompt notice thereof to each Lender. The renewal or extension of any outstanding Letter of Credit shall, for purposes of this ARTICLE III, be treated in all respects as the issuance of a new Letter of Credit.

3.3 Participations. Immediately upon the issuance of any Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have sold and transferred to each Lender, and each Lender shall be deemed irrevocably and unconditionally to have purchased and received from the Issuing Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation, pro rata (based on the percentage of the aggregate Commitments represented by such Lender’s Commitment), in such Letter of Credit, each drawing made thereunder and the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement with respect thereto and any security therefor or guaranty pertaining thereto; provided, however, that the fee relating to Letters of Credit described in Section 2.9(d) shall be payable directly to the Issuing Lender as provided therein, and the Lenders shall have no right to receive any portion thereof. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, such Lender’s pro rata share of each Reimbursement Obligation not reimbursed by the Borrower on the date due as provided in Section 3.4 or through the Borrowing of Revolving Loans as provided in Section 3.5 (because the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 cannot be satisfied, or for any other reason), or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. Upon any change in the Commitments of any of the Lenders pursuant to Section 11.6(b), with respect to all outstanding Letters of Credit and Reimbursement Obligations there shall be an automatic adjustment to the participations pursuant to this Section 3.3 to reflect the new pro rata shares of the assigning Lender and the Assignee. Each Lender’s obligation to make payment to the Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section 3.3 shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the termination of the Commitments or the existence of any Default or Event of Default, and each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, reduction or withholding whatsoever.

3.4 Reimbursement. The Borrower hereby agrees to reimburse the Issuing Lender by making payment to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, in immediately available funds, for any payment made by the Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit in accordance with the terms of such Letter of Credit (each such amount so paid until reimbursed, together with interest thereon payable as provided hereinbelow, a “Reimbursement Obligation”) immediately after, and in any event within one (1) Business Day after its receipt of notice of, such payment (provided that any such Reimbursement Obligation shall be deemed

timely satisfied (but nevertheless subject to the payment of interest thereon as provided hereinbelow) if satisfied pursuant to a Borrowing of Revolving Loans made on or prior to the next Business Day following the date of the Borrower’s receipt of notice of such payment), together with interest on the amount so paid by the Issuing Lender, to the extent not reimbursed prior to 1:00 p.m., Charlotte time, on the date of such payment or disbursement, for the period from the date of the respective payment to the date the Reimbursement Obligation created thereby is satisfied, at the Adjusted LIBOR Market Index Rate applicable to Revolving Loans as in effect from time to time during such period, such interest also to be payable on demand. The Issuing Lender will provide the Administrative Agent and the Borrower with prompt notice of any payment or disbursement made under any Letter of Credit, although the failure to give, or any delay in giving, any such notice shall not release, diminish or otherwise affect the Borrower’s obligations under this Section 3.4 or any other provision of this Agreement. The Administrative Agent will promptly pay to the Issuing Lender any such amounts received by it under this Section 3.4.

3.5 Payment by Revolving Loans. In the event that the Issuing Lender makes any payment under any Letter of Credit and the Borrower shall not have timely satisfied in full its Reimbursement Obligation to the Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.4, and to the extent that any amounts then held in the Cash Collateral Account established pursuant to Section 3.8 shall be insufficient to satisfy such Reimbursement Obligation in full, the Issuing Lender will promptly notify the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender, of such failure. If the Administrative Agent gives such notice prior to 11:00 a.m., Charlotte time, on any Business Day, each Lender will make available to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, its pro rata share (based on the percentage of the aggregate Commitments represented by such Lender’s Commitment) of the amount of such payment on such Business Day in immediately available funds. If the Administrative Agent gives such notice after 11:00 a.m., Charlotte time, on any Business Day, each such Lender shall make its pro rata share of such amount available to the Administrative Agent on the next succeeding Business Day. If and to the extent any Lender shall not have so made its pro rata share of the amount of such payment available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, forthwith on demand such amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate for each day from such date until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent. The failure of any Lender to make available to the Administrative Agent its pro rata share of any payment under any Letter of Credit shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to make available to the Administrative Agent its pro rata share of any payment under any Letter of Credit on the date required, as specified above, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make available to the Administrative Agent such other Lender’s pro rata share of any such payment. Each such payment by a Lender under this Section 3.5 of its pro rata share of an amount paid by the Issuing Lender shall constitute a Revolving Loan by such Lender (the Borrower being deemed to have given a timely Notice of Borrowing therefor) and shall be treated as such for all purposes of this Agreement; provided that for purposes of determining the aggregate Unutilized Commitments immediately prior to giving effect to the application of the proceeds of such Revolving Loans, the Reimbursement Obligation being satisfied thereby shall be deemed not to be outstanding at such time. Each Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans pursuant to this Section 3.5 shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including, without limitation, the failure of the amount of such

Borrowing of Revolving Loans to meet the minimum Borrowing amount specified in Section 2.2(b); provided, however, that each Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans pursuant to this Section 3.5 is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 (other than delivery by the Borrower of a Notice of Borrowing).

3.6 Payment to Lenders. Whenever the Issuing Lender receives a payment in respect of a Reimbursement Obligation as to which the Administrative Agent has received, for the account of the Issuing Lender, any payments from the Lenders pursuant to Section 3.5, the Issuing Lender will promptly pay to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent will promptly pay to each Lender that has paid its pro rata share thereof, in immediately available funds, an amount equal to such Lender’s ratable share (based on the proportionate amount funded by such Lender to the aggregate amount funded by all Lenders) of such Reimbursement Obligation.

3.7 Obligations Absolute. The Reimbursement Obligations of the Borrower, and the obligations of the Lenders under Section 3.5 to make payments to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, with respect to Letters of Credit, shall be irrevocable, shall remain in effect until the Issuing Lender shall have no further obligations to make any payments or disbursements under any circumstances with respect to any Letter of Credit, and, except to the extent resulting from any gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Lender, shall be absolute and unconditional, shall not be subject to counterclaim, setoff or other defense or any other qualification or exception whatsoever and shall be made in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement under all circumstances, including, without limitation, any of the following circumstances:

(a) Any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any of the other Credit Documents or any documents or instruments relating to any Letter of Credit;

(b) Any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Obligations in respect of any Letter of Credit or any other amendment, modification or waiver of or any consent to departure from any Letter of Credit or any documents or instruments relating thereto, in each case whether or not the Borrower has notice or knowledge thereof;

(c) The existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that the Borrower may have at any time against a beneficiary named in a Letter of Credit, any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such transferee may be acting), the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender (but without prejudicing the Borrower’s rights with respect thereto), any Lender or other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, the transactions contemplated hereby or any unrelated transactions (including any underlying transaction between the Borrower and the beneficiary named in any such Letter of Credit);

(d) Any draft, certificate or any other document presented under the 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 (provided that such draft, certificate or other document appears on its face to comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), any errors, omissions,

interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, telecopier or otherwise, or any errors in translation or in interpretation of technical terms;

(e) Any defense based upon the failure of any drawing under a Letter of Credit to conform to the terms of the Letter of Credit (provided that any draft, certificate or other document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit appears on its face to comply with the terms thereof, including without limitation the expiry date of such Letter of Credit), any nonapplication or misapplication by the beneficiary or any transferee of the proceeds of such drawing or any other act or omission of such beneficiary or transferee in connection with such Letter of Credit;

(f) The exchange, release, surrender or impairment of any security for the Obligations;

(g) The occurrence of any Default or Event of Default; or

(h) Any other circumstance or event whatsoever, including, without limitation, any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Borrower or a guarantor.

Any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Issuing Lender under or in connection with any Letter of Credit, if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall be binding upon the Borrower and each Lender and shall not create or result in any liability of the Issuing Lender to the Borrower or any Lender. It is expressly understood and agreed that, for purposes of determining whether a wrongful payment under a Letter of Credit resulted from the Issuing Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, (i) the Issuing Lender’s acceptance of documents that appear on their face to comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, (ii) the Issuing Lender’s exclusive reliance on the documents presented to it under such Letter of Credit as to any and all matters set forth therein, including the amount of any draft presented under such Letter of Credit, whether or not the amount due to the beneficiary thereunder equals the amount of such draft and whether or not any document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be insufficient in any respect (so long as such document appears on its face to comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), and whether or not any other statement or any other document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be forged or invalid or any statement therein proves to be inaccurate or untrue in any respect whatsoever, and (iii) any noncompliance in any immaterial respect of the documents presented under such Letter of Credit with the terms thereof shall, in each case, be deemed not to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Lender.

3.8 Cash Collateral Account. At any time and from time to time (i) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent, at the direction or with the consent of the Required Lenders, may require the Borrower to deliver to the Administrative Agent such additional amount of cash as is equal to the aggregate Stated Amount of all Letters of Credit at any time outstanding (whether or not any beneficiary under any Letter of Credit shall have drawn or be entitled at such time to draw thereunder) and (ii) in the event of a prepayment under Section 2.6(b), the Administrative Agent will retain such amount as may

then be required to be retained, such amounts in each case under clauses (i) and (ii) above to be held by the Administrative Agent in a cash collateral account (the “Cash Collateral Account”). The Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing Lender and the Lenders, a Lien upon and security interest in the Cash Collateral Account and all amounts held therein from time to time as security for Letter of Credit Exposure, and for application to the Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligations as and when the same shall arise. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest on the investment of such amounts in Cash Equivalents, which investments shall be made at the direction of the Borrower (unless a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, in which case the determination as to investments shall be made at the option and in the discretion of the Administrative Agent), amounts in the Cash Collateral Account shall not bear interest. Interest and profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. In the event of a drawing, and subsequent payment by the Issuing Lender, under any Letter of Credit at any time during which any amounts are held in the Cash Collateral Account, the Administrative Agent will deliver to the Issuing Lender an amount equal to the Reimbursement Obligation created as a result of such payment (or, if the amounts so held are less than such Reimbursement Obligation, all of such amounts) to reimburse the Issuing Lender therefor. Any amounts remaining in the Cash Collateral Account (including interest) after the expiration of all Letters of Credit and reimbursement in full of the Issuing Lender for all of its obligations thereunder shall be held by the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Borrower, to be applied against the Obligations in such order and manner as the Administrative Agent may direct. If the Borrower is required to provide cash collateral pursuant to Section 2.6(b), such amount (including interest), to the extent not applied as aforesaid, shall be returned to the Borrower on demand, provided that after giving effect to such return (i) the sum of (y) the aggregate principal amount of all Loans outstanding at such time and (z) the aggregate Letter of Credit Exposure of all Lenders at such time would not exceed the aggregate Commitments at such time and (ii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at such time. If the Borrower is required to provide cash collateral as a result of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower within three (3) Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived.

3.9 The Issuing Lender. The Issuing Lender shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and the Issuing Lender shall have all of the rights, benefits and immunities (a) provided to the Administrative Agent in ARTICLE X 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 any documents pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent” as used in ARTICLE X included the Issuing Lender with respect to such acts or omissions, and (b) as additionally provided herein with respect to the Issuing Lender.

3.10 Effectiveness. Notwithstanding any termination of the Commitments or repayment of the Loans, or both, the obligations of the Borrower under this ARTICLE III shall remain in full force and effect until the Issuing Lender and the Lenders shall have no further obligations to make any payments or disbursements under any circumstances with respect to any Letter of Credit.

Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (i) is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation, (ii) has the full corporate power and authority to execute, deliver and perform the Credit Documents to which it is or will be a party, to own and hold its property and to engage in its business as presently conducted, and (iii) is duly qualified to do business as a foreign corporation and is in good standing in each jurisdiction where the nature of its business or the ownership of its properties requires it to be so qualified, except where the failure to be so qualified would not, individually or in the aggregate, be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries has taken, or on the Restatement Effective Date will have taken, all necessary corporate action to execute, deliver and perform each of the Credit Documents to which it is or will be a party, and has, or on the Restatement Effective Date (or any later date of execution and delivery) will have, validly executed and delivered each of the Credit Documents to which it is or will be a party. This Agreement constitutes, and each of the other Credit Documents upon execution and delivery will constitute, the legal, valid and binding obligation of each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries that is a party hereto or thereto, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, by general equitable principles or by principles of good faith and fair dealing (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law).

5.3 No Violation. The execution, delivery and performance by each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries of this Agreement and each of the other Credit Documents to which it is or will be a party, and compliance by it with the terms hereof and thereof, do not and will not (i) violate any provision of its articles or certificate of incorporation or its bylaws, (ii) contravene any other Requirement of Law applicable to it, (iii) conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute (with notice, lapse of time or both) a default under any indenture, contract, agreement or other instrument to which it is a party, by which it or any of its properties is bound or to which it is subject, except where such conflict, breach or default would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, or (iv) result in or require the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any of its properties or assets. No Subsidiary is a party to any agreement or instrument or otherwise subject to any restriction or encumbrance that restricts or limits its ability to make dividend payments or other distributions in respect of its Capital Stock, to repay Indebtedness owed to the Borrower or any other Subsidiary, to make loans or advances to the Borrower or any other Subsidiary, or to transfer any of its assets or properties to the Borrower or any other Subsidiary, in each case other than such restrictions or encumbrances existing under or by reason of the Credit Documents or applicable Requirements of Law.

5.4 Governmental and Third-Party Authorization; Permits.

(a) No consent, approval, authorization or other action by, notice to, or registration or filing with, any Governmental Authority or other Person is or will be required as a condition to or otherwise in connection with the due execution, delivery and performance by each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries of this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents to which it is or will be a party or the legality, validity or enforceability hereof or thereof, other than (i) consents, authorizations and filings that have been (or on or prior to the Restatement Effective Date will have been) made or obtained and that are (or on the Restatement Effective Date will be) in full force and effect, which consents, authorizations and filings are listed on Schedule 5.4, and (ii) consents and filings the failure to obtain or make would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries has, and is in good standing with respect to, all governmental approvals, licenses, permits and authorizations necessary to conduct its business as presently conducted and to own or lease and operate its properties, except for

those the failure of which to obtain would not be reasonably likely, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.5 Litigation. There are no actions, investigations, suits or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened, at law, in equity or in arbitration, before any court, other Governmental Authority, arbitraror or other Person, (i) against or affecting the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective properties that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, or (ii) with respect to this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

5.6 Taxes. Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries has timely filed all federal, state and local tax returns and reports required to be filed by it (except for those the failure to file would not be reasonably likely to, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect) and has paid, prior to the date on which penalties would attach thereto or a Lien would attach to any of the properties of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries if unpaid, all taxes, assessments, fees and other charges levied upon it or upon its properties that are shown thereon as due and payable, other than those that are not yet delinquent or that are being contested in good faith and by proper proceedings and for which adequate reserves have been established in accordance with GAAP. Such returns accurately reflect in all material respects all liability for taxes of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries for the periods covered thereby. There is no unresolved claim by any Governmental Authority concerning the tax liability of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries for any period for which tax returns have been or were required to have been filed, other than unsecured claims for which adequate reserves have been established in accordance with GAAP. Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries has waived or extended or has been requested to waive or extend the statute of limitations relating to the payment of any taxes, other than taxes for which adequate reserves have been established in accordance with GAAP.

5.7 Subsidiaries. Schedule 5.7 sets forth a list, as of the Restatement Effective Date, of all of the Subsidiaries of the Borrower and, as to each such Subsidiary, the percentage ownership (direct and indirect) of the Borrower in each class of its capital stock and each direct owner thereof. Except for the shares of capital stock expressly indicated on Schedule 5.7 as of the Restatement Effective Date, there are no shares of capital stock, warrants, rights, options or other equity securities, or other Capital Stock of any Subsidiary of the Borrower outstanding or reserved for any purpose. All outstanding shares of capital stock of each Subsidiary of the Borrower are duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. The Borrower is the sole legal, record and beneficial owner of, and has good and valid title to, all such capital stock, free and clear of all Liens.

5.8 Full Disclosure. All factual information heretofore or contemporaneously furnished to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in writing by or on behalf of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries for purposes of or in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby is, and all other such factual information hereafter furnished to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in writing by or on behalf of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries will be, true and accurate in all material respects on the date as of which such information is dated or certified (or, if such information has been updated, amended or supplemented, on the date as of which any such update, amendment or supplement is dated or

certified) and not made incomplete by omitting to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained herein and therein, in light of the circumstances under which such information was provided, not misleading.

5.9 Margin Regulations. Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is engaged principally, or as one of its important activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying Margin Stock. No proceeds of the Loans will be used, directly or indirectly, to purchase or carry any Margin Stock, to extend credit for such purpose or for any other purpose that would violate or be inconsistent with Regulations T, U or X or any provision of the Exchange Act. Not more than 25% of the value of the assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries is represented by Margin Stock.

(a) Upon demand of any party hereto, whether made before or after institution of any judicial proceeding, any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of, connected with or relating to this Agreement or any other Credit Document (“Disputes”) between or among the Borrower, its Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, or any of them, shall be resolved by binding arbitration as provided herein. Institution of a judicial proceeding by a party does not waive the right of that party to demand arbitration hereunder. Disputes may include, without limitation, tort claims, counterclaims, claims brought as class actions, claims arising from documents executed in the future, disputes as to whether a matter is subject to arbitration, or claims arising out of or connected with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Credit Documents. Arbitration shall be conducted under and governed by the Commercial Financial Disputes Arbitration Rules (the “Arbitration Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”), as in effect from time to time, and the Federal Arbitration Act, Title 9 of the U.S. Code, as amended. All arbitration hearings shall be conducted in the city in which the principal office of the Administrative Agent is located. A hearing shall begin within ninety (90) days of demand for arbitration and all hearings shall be concluded within 120 days of demand for arbitration. These time limitations may not be extended unless a party shows cause for extension and then for no more than a total of sixty (60) days. The expedited procedures set forth in Rule 51 et seq. of the Arbitration Rules shall be applicable to claims of less than $1,000,000. All applicable statutes of limitation shall apply to any Dispute. A judgment upon the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The panel from which all arbitrators are selected shall be comprised of licensed attorneys selected from the Commercial Financial Dispute Arbitration Panel of the AAA. The single arbitrator selected for expedited procedure shall be a retired judge from the highest court of general jurisdiction, state or federal, of the state where the hearing will be conducted. The parties do not waive applicable federal or state substantive law except as provided herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this arbitration provision does not apply to Disputes under or related to any Hedge Agreement. The parties do not waive applicable federal or state substantive law except as provided herein.

(b) Notwithstanding the preceding binding arbitration provisions, the parties hereto agree to preserve, without diminution, certain remedies that any party hereto may employ or exercise freely, either alone, in conjunction with or during a Dispute.

Any claim or controversy with regard to any party’s entitlement to such remedies

is a Dispute. Preservation of these remedies does not limit the power of an arbitrator to grant similar remedies that may be requested by a party in a Dispute. The parties hereto agree that no party shall have a remedy of punitive or exemplary damages against any other party in any Dispute, and each party hereby waives any right or claim to punitive or exemplary damages that it has now or that may arise in the future in connection with any Dispute, whether such Dispute is resolved by arbitration or judicially. The parties acknowledge that by agreeing to binding arbitration they have irrevocably waived any right they may have to a jury trial with regard to a Dispute. The Borrower agrees to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with any Dispute subject to arbitration as provided herein.

(i) if to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender, to it at the address (or telecopier number) specified for such Person on Schedule 1.1; and

(ii) if to any Lender, to it at its address (or telecopier number) set forth in its Administrative Questionnaire.

Notices sent by hand or overnight courier service, or mailed by certified or registered mail, shall be deemed to have been given when received; notices sent by telecopier shall be deemed to have been given when sent (except that, if not given during normal business hours for the recipient, shall be deemed to have been given at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient). Notices delivered through electronic communications to the extent provided in Section 11.4(b) shall be effective as provided in Section 11.4(b).

(b) Notices and other communications to the Lenders hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication including e-mail or by posting such notices or communications on internet or intranet websites such as SyndTrak or a substantially similar electronic transmission system (the “Platform”) pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender pursuant to ARTICLE II if such Lender has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such ARTICLE by electronic communication. The Administrative Agent or the Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communication pursuant to procedures approved by it, provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement), provided that if such notice or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such

notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient, and (ii) notices or other communications posted to an internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor. THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” The Agent Parties (as defined below) do not warrant the adequacy of the platform and expressly disclaim liability for errors or omissions in the communications effected thereby. No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third-party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by any Agent Party in connection with any such communications or the Platform. In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, any Lender or any other Person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of the Borrower’s, any of the Borrower’s Subsidiary’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of any notices or communications through the Platform other than for direct or actual damages resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent Party as determined by a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

(c) Any party hereto may change its address or telecopier number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto (except that each Lender need not give notice of any such change to the other Lenders in their capacities as such).

11.5 Amendments, Waivers, etc. No amendment, modification, waiver or discharge or termination of, or consent to any departure by the Borrower from, any provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, shall be effective unless in a writing signed by the Required Lenders (or by the Administrative Agent at the direction or with the consent of the Required Lenders), and then the same shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that no such amendment, modification, waiver, discharge, termination or consent shall:

(a) unless agreed to by each Lender directly affected thereby, (i) reduce or forgive the principal amount of any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation, reduce the rate of or forgive any interest thereon (provided the consent of the Required Lenders shall be required to (A) waive the applicability of any additional interest payable under Section 2.8(b) at the election of the Required Lenders and (B) change financial covenant provisions and related definitions which may affect the Applicable Margin Percentage), or reduce or forgive any fees hereunder or other Obligations (other than fees payable to the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers or the Issuing Lender for its own account), (ii) extend the Maturity Date or any other scheduled date for the payment of any principal of any Loan (including any scheduled date for the mandatory reduction or termination of any Commitments), any interest on any Loan (other than additional interest payable under Section 2.8(b) at the election of the Required Lenders, as provided therein), any fees (other than fees payable to the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers or the Issuing Lender for its own account) or any other Obligations, or extend the expiry date of any Letter of Credit in a manner not permitted under ARTICLE III, or extend the time of payment of any Reimbursement Obligation or any interest thereon, (iii) increase or extend any Commitment of

any such Lender (it being understood that a waiver of any condition precedent set forth in Section 4.2 or of any Default or Event of Default or mandatory reduction in the Commitments, if agreed to by the Required Lenders, Required Revolving Lenders or all Lenders (as may be required hereunder with respect to such waiver), shall not constitute such an increase) or (iv) change the percentage of the aggregate Commitments or of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Loans, or the number or percentage of Lenders, that shall be required for the Lenders or any of them to take or approve, or direct the Administrative Agent to take, any action hereunder or under any other Credit Document (including as set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders”);

(b) unless agreed to in writing by all of the Lenders, except as may be otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement or in any other Credit Document, release any Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under the Subsidiary Guaranty (other than (A) as may be otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement or in any other Credit Document or (B) in connection with the sale or other disposition of all of the capital stock of such Subsidiary Guarantor in a transaction expressly permitted under or pursuant to this Agreement);

(c) unless agreed to in writing by the Issuing Lender, the Swingline Lender or the Administrative Agent in addition to the Lenders required as provided hereinabove to take such action, affect the respective rights or obligations of the Issuing Lender, the Swingline Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, hereunder or under any of the other Credit Documents;

(d) unless agreed to in writing by each Hedge Party and Cash Management Bank affected thereby in its capacity as such (i) amend any provision regarding priority of payments in this Agreement or any other Credit Document or (ii) release any Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under the Subsidiary Guaranty (other than (A) as may be otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement or in any other Credit Document or (B) in connection with the sale or other disposition of all of the capital stock of such Subsidiary Guarantor in a transaction expressly permitted under or pursuant to this Agreement);

and provided further that the Xxxxx Fargo Fee Letter may be amended or modified, and any rights thereunder waived, in a writing signed by the parties thereto.

Notwithstanding the fact that the consent of all Lenders is required in certain circumstances as set forth above, each Lender is entitled to vote as such Lender sees fit on any bankruptcy reorganization plan that affects the Loans, and each Lender acknowledges that the provisions of Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code supersedes the unanimous consent provisions set forth herein.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (i) no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x) the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender more adversely than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender

and (ii) if the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall have jointly identified (each in its sole discretion) an obvious error or omission of a technical or immaterial nature, in each case, in any provision of the Credit Documents, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall be permitted to amend such provision and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any Credit Document.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent on its behalf, and without further consent, to enter into amendments or modifications to this Agreement (including, without limitation, amendments to this Section 11.5) or any of the other Credit Documents or to enter into additional Credit Documents as the Administrative Agent reasonably deems appropriate in order to effectuate the terms of Section 2.20 (including, without limitation, as applicable, (1) to permit the Commitment Increase to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and (2) to include the Commitment Increase or outstanding Commitment Increase, in any determination of (i) Required Lenders (ii) similar required lender terms applicable thereto); provided that no amendment or modification shall result in any increase in the amount of any Lender’s Commitment without the written consent of such affected Lender if the same is not objected to in writing by the Required Lenders within five (5) Business Days following the posting of such amendment to the Lenders.

11.6 Successors and Assigns.

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary Guarantor may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Assignee in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.6(b) (an “Assignee”), (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.6(e) or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of Section 11.6(f) (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in Section 11.6(e) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders ) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans (including for purposes of this Section 11.6(b), participations in Letters of Credit and in Swingline Loans) at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i) (A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned, and (B) in any case not described in clause (A) above, the

100

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 the Administrative Agent or, if another date is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the such date) shall not be less than (x) $5,000,000, in the case of any assignment in respect of a Commitment (which for this purpose includes Revolving Loans outstanding) or (y) the entire Swingline Commitment and the full amount of the outstanding Swingline Loans, in the case of Swingline Loans, or unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed);

(ii) 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 Loan or the Commitment assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall not apply to rights in respect of Swingline Loans;

(iii) no consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by clause (B) of Section 11.6(b)(i) and, in addition:

(A) the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (y) a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (z) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; provided the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after having received notice thereof;

(B) the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment made to a Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender;

(C) the consent of the Issuing Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment that increases the obligation of the Assignee to participate in exposure under one or more Letters of Credit (whether or not then outstanding); and

(D) the consent of the Swingline Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment in respect of a Commitment;

(iv) the Lenders and Assignee to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 for each assignment and the Assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire;

101

(v) no such assignment shall be made to a Person who has a significant line of business that involves trucking or freight shipping (or any Person that is an Affiliate of such a Person), unless a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment;

(vi) no such assignment shall be made to (A) the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries or (B) any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person, who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B); and

(vii) no such assignment shall be made to a natural person.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 11.6(c), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.16(a), 2.16(b), 2.17, 2.18 and 11.1 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. If requested by or on behalf of the Assignee, the Borrower, at its own expense, will execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a new Note or Notes to the order of the Assignee (and, if the assigning Lender has retained any portion of its rights and obligations hereunder, to the order of the assigning Lender), prepared in accordance with the applicable provisions of Section 2.4 as necessary to reflect, after giving effect to the assignment, the Commitments and/or outstanding Loans, as the case may be, of the Assignee and (to the extent of any retained interests) the assigning Lender, in substantially the form of Exhibits A-1 and/or A-2, as applicable. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 11.6 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 11.6(e).

(c) In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable Law without compliance

102

with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

(d) The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at its address for notices referred to in Schedule 1.1 a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall maintain on the Register information regarding the designation, revocation of designation, of any Lender as a Defaulting Lender. The Register shall be available for inspection by each of the Borrower and the Issuing Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(e) Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s 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 its Commitments and/or the Loans (including such Lender’s participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline 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 and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in Sections 11.5(a) and (b) that affects such Participant. Subject to Section 11.6(f), the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.16(a), 2.16(b), 2.17 and 2.18 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 11.6(b). To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.3 as though it were a Lender; provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.15(a) as though it were a Lender.

(f) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.16(a), 2.16(b) or 2.17 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 is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.17 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 2.17(e) as though it were a Lender.

103

(g) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Notes, if any) 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.

(h) The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or any state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

(i) Any Lender or Participant may, in connection with any assignment, participation, pledge or proposed assignment, participation or pledge pursuant to this Section 11.6, disclose to the Assignee, Participant or pledgee or proposed Assignee, Participant or pledgee any information relating to the Borrower and its Subsidiaries furnished to it by or on behalf of any other party hereto, provided that such Assignee, Participant or pledgee or proposed Assignee, Participant or pledgee agrees in writing to keep such information confidential to the same extent required of the Lenders under Section 11.11.

(j) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if Xxxxx Fargo assigns all of its Commitments and Revolving Loans in accordance with this Section 11.6, Xxxxx Fargo may resign as Issuing Lender upon written notice to the Borrower and the Lenders. Upon any such notice of resignation, the Borrower shall have the right to appoint from among the Lenders a successor Issuing Lender; provided that no failure by the Borrower to make such appointment shall affect the resignation of Xxxxx Fargo as Issuing Lender. Xxxxx Fargo shall retain all of the rights and obligations of the Issuing Lender hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit issued by it and outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation and all obligations of the Borrower and the Lenders with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make Revolving Loans or fund participation interests pursuant to ARTICLE III).

11.7 No Waiver. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Credit Documents are cumulative and in addition to, and not exclusive of, all other rights and remedies available at law, in equity or otherwise. No failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any Default or Event of Default. No course of dealing between any of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent or the Lenders or their agents or employees shall be effective to amend, modify or discharge any provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document or to constitute a waiver of any Default or Event of Default. No notice to or demand upon the Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the right of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to

104

exercise any right or remedy or take any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

11.8 Survival. All representations, warranties and agreements made by or on behalf of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries in this Agreement and in the other Credit Documents shall survive the execution and delivery hereof or thereof, the making and repayment of the Loans and the issuance and repayment of the Letters of Credit. In addition, notwithstanding anything herein or under applicable law to the contrary, the provisions of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents relating to indemnification or payment of fees, costs and expenses, including, without limitation, the provisions of Sections 2.8(f), 2.16(a), 2.16(b), 2.17, 2.18, and 11.1, shall survive the payment in full of all Loans and Letters of Credit, the termination of the Commitments and all Letters of Credit, and any termination of this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents; provided that such survival shall remain subject to any notice requirements that may be provided in such sections.

11.9 Severability. To the extent any provision of this Agreement is prohibited by or invalid under the applicable law of any jurisdiction, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity and only in such jurisdiction, without prohibiting or invalidating such provision in any other jurisdiction or the remaining provisions of this Agreement in any jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.9, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by the Bankruptcy Code or similar debtor relief laws, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender, as applicable, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

11.10 Construction. The headings of the various articles, sections and subsections of this Agreement and the table of contents have been inserted for convenience only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or construction of any of the provisions hereof. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein and in the other Credit Documents, in the event of any inconsistency or conflict between any provision of this Agreement and any provision of any of the other Credit Documents, the provision of this Agreement shall control. Any Hedge Agreement between the Borrower and any Hedge Party is an independent agreement governed by the writing provisions of such Hedge Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect, unaffected by any repayment, prepayment, acceleration, reduction, increase or change in the terms applicable to the Loans under this Agreement, except as otherwise expressly provided in such Hedge Agreement, and any payoff statement from the Administrative Agent relating to this Agreement shall not apply to such Hedge Agreement except as expressly provided therein. Any Cash Management Agreement between the Borrower and any Cash Management Bank is an independent agreement governed by the written provisions of such Cash Management Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect, unaffected by any repayment, prepayment, acceleration, reduction, increase or change in the terms applicable to the Loans under this Agreement, except as otherwise expressly provided in such Cash Management Agreement, and any payoff statement from the Administrative Agent relating to this Agreement shall not apply to such Cash Management Agreement except as expressly provided therein.

105

11.11 Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lender agree to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and other representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority), (c) to the extent required by applicable Requirements of Law or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Credit Document or any Hedge Agreement or any Cash Management Agreement or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Credit Document or any Hedge Agreement or any Cash Management Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 11.11, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations, (g) subject to each such Person being informed of the confidential nature of the Information and to its agreement to keep such Information confidential, (i) to an investor or prospective investor in an Approved Fund that also agrees that Information shall be used solely for the purpose of evaluating an investment in such Approved Fund, (ii) to a trustee, collateral manager, servicer, backup servicer, noteholder or secured party in an Approved Fund in connection with the administration, servicing and reporting on the assets serving as collateral for an Approved Fund, or (iii) to a nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information regarding the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, the Loans and Credit Documents in connection with ratings issued with respect to an Approved Fund, (h) with the consent of the Borrower or (i) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 11.11 or (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender, the Issuing Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates.

For purposes of this Section 11.11, “Information” shall mean all information received from the Borrower and its Subsidiaries relating to such parties or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, provided that, in the case of information received from the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 11.11 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

11.12 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and the other Credit Documents constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and

106

understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof (except for the Xxxxx Fargo Fee Letter). Except as provided in Section 4.1, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy or other electronic transmission (such as pdf) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

11.13 Disclosure of Information. The Borrower agrees and consents to the Administrative Agent’s and Xxxxx Fargo Securities’ disclosure of information relating to this transaction to Gold Sheets and other similar bank trade publications. Such information will consist of deal terms and other information customarily found in such publications.

11.14 USA Patriot Act Notice. Each Lender that is subject to the PATRIOT Act and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower in accordance with the PATRIOT Act.

(i) guarantees (A) to the Lenders (including the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender in their capacities as such) and the Administrative Agent (together with any Hedge Party described in clause )B) below and any Cash Management Bank described in clause (C) below, collectively, the “Guaranteed Parties”) the full and prompt payment, at any time and from time to time as and when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), of all Obligations of the Borrower under the Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents, including, without limitation, all principal of and interest on the Loans, all Reimbursement Obligations in respect of Letters of Credit, all fees, expenses, indemnities and other amounts payable by the Borrower under the Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document (including interest accruing after the filing of a petition or commencement of a case by or with respect to the Borrower seeking relief under any Insolvency Laws (as hereinafter defined), whether or not the claim for such interest is allowed in such proceeding), and all Obligations that, but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, would become due, (B) to each Hedge Party under any Hedge Agreement that is required or permitted by the Credit Agreement to be entered into by the Borrower (a “Permitted Hedge Agreement”), all obligations of the Borrower under such Permitted Hedge Agreement, and (C) to each Cash Management Bank under any Cash Management Agreement, in each case under clauses (A) through (C) whether now existing or hereafter created or arising and whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, due or to become due (all liabilities and obligations described in this clause (i), collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”); and

(ii) agrees to pay or reimburse upon demand all reasonable fees, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred or paid by (y) any Guaranteed Party in connection with any suit, action or proceeding to enforce or protect any rights of the Guaranteed Parties hereunder and (z) the Administrative Agent in connection with any amendment, modification or waiver hereof or consent pursuant hereto, and to indemnify and hold each Guaranteed Party and its directors, officers, employees, agents and Affiliates harmless from and against any and all claims, losses, damages, obligations, liabilities, penalties, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) of any kind or nature whatsoever, whether direct, indirect or consequential, that may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such indemnified party as a result of, arising from or in any way relating to this Guaranty or the collection or enforcement of the Guaranteed Obligations; provided, however, that no indemnified party shall have the right to be indemnified hereunder for any such claims, losses, costs and expenses to the extent determined by a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or pursuant to arbitration as set forth herein to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such indemnified party (all liabilities and obligations described in this clause (ii), collectively, the “Other Obligations”; and the Other Obligations, together with the Guaranteed Obligations, the “Total Obligations”).

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (a) above and notwithstanding any other provisions contained herein or in any other Credit Document:

(i) no provision of this Guaranty shall require or permit the collection from any Guarantor of interest in excess of the maximum rate or amount that such Guarantor may be required or permitted to pay pursuant to applicable law; and

(ii) the liability of each Guarantor under this Guaranty as of any date shall be limited to a maximum aggregate amount (the “Maximum Guaranteed Amount”) equal to the greatest amount that would not render such Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty subject to avoidance, discharge or reduction as of such date as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under applicable federal and state laws pertaining to bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium, readjustment of debts, dissolution, liquidation or other debtor relief, specifically including, without limitation, the Bankruptcy Code and any fraudulent transfer and fraudulent conveyance laws (collectively, “Insolvency Laws”), in each instance after giving effect to all other liabilities of such Guarantor, contingent or otherwise, that are relevant under applicable Insolvency Laws (specifically excluding, however, any liabilities of such Guarantor in respect of intercompany indebtedness to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates to the extent that such indebtedness would be discharged in an amount equal to the amount paid by such Guarantor hereunder, and after giving effect as assets to the value (as determined under applicable Insolvency Laws) of any rights to subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or similar rights of such Guarantor pursuant to (y) applicable law or (z) any agreement (including this Guaranty) providing for an equitable allocation among such Guarantor and other Affiliates of the Borrower of obligations arising under guaranties by such parties).

(c) The Guarantors desire to allocate among themselves, in a fair and equitable manner, their obligations arising under this Guaranty. Accordingly, in the event any payment or distribution is made hereunder on any date by a Guarantor (a “Funding Guarantor”) that exceeds its Fair Share (as hereinafter defined) as of such date, that Funding Guarantor shall be entitled to a contribution from each of the other Guarantors in the amount of such other Guarantor’s Fair Share Shortfall (as hereinafter defined) as of such date, with the result that all such contributions will cause each Guarantor’s Aggregate Payments (as hereinafter defined) to equal its Fair Share as of such date. “Fair Share” means, with respect to a Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (i) the ratio of (x) the Adjusted Maximum Guaranteed Amount (as hereinafter defined) with respect to such Guarantor to (y) the aggregate of the Adjusted Maximum Guaranteed Amounts with respect to all Guarantors, multiplied by (ii) the aggregate amount paid or distributed on or before such date by all Funding Guarantors hereunder in respect of the obligations guarantied. “Fair Share Shortfall” means, with respect to a Guarantor as of any date of determination, the excess, if any, of the Fair Share of such Guarantor over the Aggregate Payments of such Guarantor. “Adjusted Maximum Guaranteed Amount” means, with respect to a Guarantor as of any date of determination, the Maximum Guaranteed Amount of such Guarantor, determined in accordance with the provisions of subsection (b) above; provided that, solely for purposes of calculating the Adjusted Maximum Guaranteed Amount with respect to any Guarantor for purposes of this subsection (c), any assets or liabilities arising by virtue of any rights to subrogation, reimbursement or indemnity or any rights to or obligations of

contribution hereunder shall not be considered as assets or liabilities of such Guarantor. “Aggregate Payments” means, with respect to a Guarantor as of any date of determination, the aggregate amount of all payments and distributions made on or before such date by such Guarantor in respect of this Guaranty (including, without limitation, in respect of this subsection (c)). The amounts payable as contributions hereunder shall be determined as of the date on which the related payment or distribution is made by the applicable Funding Guarantor. Each Funding Guarantor’s right of contribution under this subsection (c) shall be subject to the provisions of Section 4. The allocation among Guarantors of their obligations as set forth in this subsection (c) shall not be construed in any way to limit the liability of any Guarantor hereunder to the Guaranteed Parties.

(d) The guaranty of each Guarantor set forth in this Section is a guaranty of payment as a primary obligor, and not a guaranty of collection. Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations, at any time and from time to time, may exceed the Maximum Guaranteed Amount of such Guarantor and may exceed the aggregate of the Maximum Guaranteed Amounts of all Guarantors, in each case without discharging, limiting or otherwise affecting the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder or the rights, powers and remedies of any Guaranteed Party hereunder or under any other Credit Document.

2. Guaranty Absolute. Each Guarantor agrees that its obligations hereunder and under the other Credit Documents to which it is a party are irrevocable, absolute and unconditional, are independent of the Guaranteed Obligations or any collateral or other security therefor or other guaranty or liability in respect thereof, whether given by such Guarantor or any other Person, and shall not be discharged, limited or otherwise affected by reason of any of the following, whether or not such Guarantor has notice or knowledge thereof:

(i) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, any Guaranteed Obligations or any guaranty or other liability in respect thereof, or any amendment, modification or supplement to, restatement of, or consent to any rescission or waiver of or departure from, any provisions of the Credit Agreement, any other Credit Document or any agreement or instrument delivered pursuant to any of the foregoing;

(ii) the invalidity or unenforceability of any Guaranteed Obligations, any guaranty or other liability in respect thereof or any provisions of the Credit Agreement, any other Credit Document or any agreement or instrument delivered pursuant to any of the foregoing;

(iii) the addition or release of Guarantors hereunder or the taking, acceptance or release of other guarantees of any Guaranteed Obligations or additional collateral or other security for any Guaranteed Obligations or for any guaranty or other liability in respect thereof;

(iv) any discharge, modification, settlement, compromise or other action in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations or any guaranty or other liability in respect thereof, including any acceptance or refusal of any offer or performance with respect to the same or the subordination of the same to the payment of any other obligations;

(v) any agreement not to pursue or enforce or any failure to pursue or enforce (whether voluntarily or involuntarily as a result of operation of law, court order or otherwise) any right or remedy in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations, any guaranty or other liability in respect thereof or any collateral or other security for any of the foregoing; any sale, exchange, release, substitution, compromise or other action in respect of any such collateral or other security; or any failure to create, protect, perfect, secure, insure, continue or maintain any Liens in any such collateral or other security;

(vi) the exercise of any right or remedy available under the Credit Documents, at law, in equity or otherwise in respect of any collateral or other security for any Guaranteed Obligations or for any guaranty or other liability in respect thereof, in any order and by any manner thereby permitted, including, without limitation, foreclosure on any such collateral or other security by any manner of sale thereby permitted, whether or not every aspect of such sale is commercially reasonable;

(vii) any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, liquidation, insolvency, dissolution, termination, reorganization or like change in the corporate structure or existence of the Borrower or any other Person directly or indirectly liable for any Guaranteed Obligations;

(viii) any manner of application of any payments by or amounts received or collected from any Person, by whomsoever paid and howsoever realized, whether in reduction of any Guaranteed Obligations or any other obligations of the Borrower or any other Person directly or indirectly liable for any Guaranteed Obligations, regardless of what Guaranteed Obligations may remain unpaid after any such application; or

(ix) any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or a defense, set-off or counterclaim available to, the Borrower, any Guarantor or a surety or guarantor generally, other than the occurrence of all of the following: (x) the payment in full of the Total Obligations in existence on the date the event discussed in (y) occurs (other than contingent and indemnification obligations not then due and payable), (y) the termination of the Commitments and the termination or expiration of all Letters of Credit under the Credit Agreement and (z) the termination of, and settlement of all obligations of the Borrower, under each permitted Hedge Agreement to which any Hedge Party is a party (the events in clauses (x), (y) and (z) above, collectively, the “Termination Requirements”).

3. Certain Waivers. Each Guarantor hereby knowingly, voluntarily and expressly waives:

(i) presentment, demand for payment, demand for performance, protest and notice of any other kind, including, without limitation, notice of nonpayment or other nonperformance (including notice of default under any Credit Document with respect to any Guaranteed Obligations), protest, dishonor, acceptance hereof, extension of additional credit to the Borrower and of any of the matters referred to in Section 2 and of any rights to consent thereto;

(ii) any right to require the Guaranteed Parties or any of them, as a condition of payment or performance by such Guarantor hereunder, to proceed against, or to exhaust or have resort to any collateral or other security from or any deposit balance or other credit in favor of, the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person directly or indirectly liable for any Guaranteed Obligations, or to pursue any other remedy or enforce any other right; and any other defense based on an election of remedies with respect to any collateral or other security for any Guaranteed Obligations of for any guaranty or other liability in respect thereof, notwithstanding that any such election (including any failure to pursue or enforce any rights or remedies) may impair or extinguish any right of indemnification, contribution, reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of any Guarantor against the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person directly or indirectly liable for any Guaranteed Obligations or any such collateral or other security; and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor hereby specifically waives the benefits of Sections 26-7 through 26-9, inclusive, of the General Statutes of North Carolina, as amended from time to time, and any similar statute or law of any other jurisdiction, as the same may be amended from time to time;

(iii) any right or defense based on or arising by reason of any right or defense of the Borrower or any other Person, including, without limitation, any defense based on or arising from a lack of authority or other disability of the Borrower or any other Person, the invalidity or unenforceability of any Guaranteed Obligations, any collateral or other security therefor or any Credit Document or other agreement or instrument delivered pursuant thereto, or the cessation of the liability of the Borrower for any reason other than the satisfaction of the Termination Requirements;

(iv) any defense based on any Guaranteed Party’s acts or omissions in the administration of the Guaranteed Obligations, any guaranty or other liability in respect thereof or any collateral or other security for any of the foregoing, and promptness, diligence or any requirement that any Guaranteed Party create, protect, perfect, secure, insure, continue or maintain any Liens in any such collateral or other security;

(v) any right to assert against any Guaranteed Party, as a defense, counterclaim, crossclaim or set-off, any defense, counterclaim, claim, right of recoupment or set-off that it may at any time have against any Guaranteed Party (including, without limitation, failure of consideration, fraud, fraudulent inducement, statute of limitations, payment, accord and satisfaction and usury), other than compulsory counterclaims and other than the payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations; and

(vi) any defense based on or afforded by any applicable law that limits the liability of or exonerates guarantors or sureties or that may in any other way conflict with the terms of this Guaranty.

4. No Subrogation. Each Guarantor hereby waives and agrees that, until satisfaction of the Termination Requirements, it will not exercise or seek to exercise any claim or right that it may have against the Borrower or any other Guarantor at any time as a result of any payment

made under or in connection with this Guaranty or the performance or enforcement hereof, including any right of subrogation to the rights of any of the Guaranteed Parties against the Borrower or any other Guarantor, any right of indemnity, contribution or reimbursement against the Borrower or any other Guarantor (including rights of contribution as set forth in Section 1(c)), any right to enforce any remedies of any Guaranteed Party against the Borrower or any other Guarantor, or any benefit of, or any right to participate in, any collateral or other security held by any Guaranteed Party to secure payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, in each case whether such claims or rights arise by contract, statute (including without limitation the Bankruptcy Code), common law or otherwise; provided, however, that a Guarantor may enforce the rights of contribution set forth in Section 1(c) after satisfaction of the Termination Requirements. Each Guarantor further agrees that all indebtedness and other obligations, whether now or hereafter existing, of the Borrower or any other Subsidiary of the Borrower to such Guarantor, including, without limitation, any such indebtedness in any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code and any intercompany receivables, together with any interest thereon, shall be, and hereby are, subordinated and made junior in right of payment to the Total Obligations in accordance with the following sentence. Each Guarantor further agrees that if any amount shall be paid to or any distribution received by any Guarantor (i) on account of any such indebtedness at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, or (ii) on account of any such rights of subrogation, indemnity, contribution or reimbursement at any time prior to the satisfaction of the Termination Requirements, such amount or distribution shall be deemed to have been received and to be held in trust for the benefit of the Guaranteed Parties, and shall forthwith be delivered to the Administrative Agent in the form received (with any necessary endorsements in the case of written instruments), to be applied against the Guaranteed Obligations, whether or not matured, in accordance with the terms of the applicable Credit Documents and without in any way discharging, limiting or otherwise affecting the liability of such Guarantor under any other provision of this Guaranty. Additionally, in the event the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower becomes a “debtor” within the meaning of the Bankruptcy Code, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled, at its option, on behalf of the Guaranteed Parties and as attorney-in-fact for each Guarantor, and is hereby authorized and appointed by each Guarantor, to file proofs of claim on behalf of each relevant Guarantor and vote the rights of each such Guarantor in any plan of reorganization, and to demand, xxx for, collect and receive every payment and distribution on any indebtedness of the Borrower or such Subsidiary to any Guarantor in any such proceeding, each Guarantor hereby assigning to the Administrative Agent all of its rights in respect of any such claim, including the right to receive payments and distributions in respect thereof. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, each Guarantor may receive and collect all indebtedness and other obligations, whether now or hereafter existing, of the Borrower or any other Subsidiary of the Borrower owing to such Guarantor including without limitation intercompany receivables.

5. Representations and Warranties. Each Guarantor hereby represents and warrants to the Guaranteed Parties as follows:

(a) Such Guarantor is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation and has the full corporate power and authority to execute, deliver and perform this Guaranty and the other Credit Documents to

which it is or will be a party, to own and hold its property and to engage in its business as presently conducted.

(b) Such Guarantor has taken all necessary corporate action to execute, deliver and perform this Guaranty and each of the other Credit Documents to which it is or will be a party, and has, or on any later date of execution and delivery will have, validly executed and delivered each of the Credit Documents to which it is or will be a party. This Guaranty constitutes, and each of such other Credit Documents upon execution and delivery will constitute, the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Guarantor, enforceable against such Guarantor in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally or by general equitable principles or by principles of good faith and fair dealing (regardless of whether enforcement is sough in equity or at law).

(c) The execution, delivery and performance by such Guarantor of this Guaranty and the other Credit Documents to which it is a party, and compliance by it with the terms hereof and thereof, do not and will not (i) violate any provision of its articles or certificate of incorporation or bylaws, (ii) contravene any Requirement of Law applicable to it, (iii) conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute (with notice, lapse of time or both) a default under any indenture, contract agreement, or other instrument to which it is a party, by which it or any of its properties is bound or to which it is subject except where such conflict, breach or default would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, or (iv) result in or require the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any of its properties, other than Liens created pursuant to the Credit Documents.

(d) No consent, approval, authorization or other action by, notice to, or registration or filing with, any Governmental Authority is or will be required as a condition to or otherwise in connection with the due execution, delivery and performance by such Guarantor of this Guaranty and the other Credit Documents to which it is a party or the legality, validity or enforceability hereof or thereof other than consents and filings, the failure to obtain or make would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

(e) There are no actions, investigations, suits or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of such Guarantor, threatened, at law, in equity or in arbitration, before any court, other Governmental Authority or other Person, (i) against or affecting such Guarantor or any of its properties that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) with respect to this Guaranty or any of the other Credit Documents to which such Guarantor is a party.

(f) Such Guarantor has been provided with a true and complete copy of the executed Credit Agreement, as in effect as of the date it became a party hereto, and its principal officers are familiar with the contents thereof, particularly insofar as the contents thereof relate or apply to such Guarantor.

6. Financial Condition of Borrower. Each Guarantor represents that it has knowledge of the Borrower’s financial condition and affairs and that it has adequate means to obtain from the Borrower on an ongoing basis information relating thereto and to the Borrower’s ability to pay and perform the Guaranteed Obligations, and agrees to assume the responsibility

for keeping, and to keep, so informed for so long as this Guaranty is in effect with respect to such Guarantor. Each Guarantor agrees that the Guaranteed Parties shall have no obligation to investigate the financial condition or affairs of the Borrower for the benefit of any Guarantor nor to advise any Guarantor of any fact respecting, or any change in, the financial condition or affairs of the Borrower that might become known to any Guaranteed Party at any time, whether or not such Guaranteed Party knows or believes or has reason to know or believe that any such fact or change is unknown to any Guarantor, or might (or does) materially increase the risk of any Guarantor as guarantor, or might (or would) affect the willingness of any Guarantor to continue as a guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations.

7. Payments; Application; Set-Off.

(a) Each Guarantor agrees that, upon the failure of the Borrower to pay any Guaranteed Obligations when and as the same shall become due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), and without limitation of any other right or remedy that any Guaranteed Party may have at law, in equity or otherwise against such Guarantor, such Guarantor will, subject to the provisions of Section 1(b), forthwith pay or cause to be paid to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Guaranteed Parties, an amount equal to the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations then due and owing as aforesaid.

(b) All payments made by each Guarantor hereunder will be made in Dollars to the Administrative Agent, without set-off, counterclaim or other defense and, in accordance with Section 2.17 of the Credit Agreement, free and clear of and without deduction for any Taxes, each Guarantor hereby agreeing to comply with and be bound by the provisions of Section 2.17 of the Credit Agreement in respect of all payments made by it hereunder and the provisions of which Section are hereby incorporated into and made a part of this Guaranty by this reference as if set forth herein at length.

(c) All payments made hereunder shall be applied in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.12 of the Credit Agreement. For purposes of applying amounts in accordance with this Section 7(c), the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any Guaranteed Party that has entered into a Permitted Hedge Agreement or Cash Management Agreement with the Borrower for a determination (which such Guaranteed Party agrees to provide or cause to be provided upon request of the Administrative Agent) of the outstanding Guaranteed Obligations owed to such Guaranteed Party under any such Permitted Hedge Agreement or Cash Management Agreement. Unless it has actual knowledge (including by way of written notice from any such Guaranteed Party) to the contrary, the Administrative Agent, in acting hereunder, shall be entitled to assume that no Permitted Hedge Agreements or Cash Management Agreements, or Guaranteed Obligations in respect thereof are in existence between any Guaranteed Party and the Borrower. If any Lender or Affiliate thereof that is a party to a Permitted Hedge Agreement or Cash Management Agreement with the Borrower (the obligations of the Borrower under which are Guaranteed Obligations) ceases to be a Lender or Affiliate thereof, such former Lender or Affiliate thereof shall nevertheless continue to be a Guaranteed Party hereunder with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations under such Permitted Hedge Agreement or Cash Management Agreement.

(d) In the event that the proceeds of any such sale, disposition or realization are insufficient to pay all amounts to which the Guaranteed Parties are legally entitled, the Guarantors shall be jointly and severally liable for the deficiency, together with interest thereon at the highest rate specified in any applicable Credit Document for interest on overdue principal or such other rate as shall be fixed by applicable law, together with the costs of collection and all other fees, costs and expenses payable hereunder.

(e) In addition to all other rights and remedies available under the Credit Documents or applicable law or otherwise, upon and at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Guaranteed Party may, and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized by each Guarantor, at any such time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby knowingly and expressly waived by each Guarantor, to set off and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) and any other property at any time held (including at any branches or agencies, wherever located), and any other indebtedness at any time owing, by such Guaranteed Party or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of such Guarantor against any or all of the obligations of such Guarantor may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Guaranteed Party different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of each Guaranteed Party and their respective Affiliates under this subsection are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Guaranteed Parties or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Guaranteed Party agrees to notify the Borrower and the 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.

8. No Waiver. The rights and remedies of the Guaranteed Parties expressly set forth in this Guaranty and the other Credit Documents are cumulative and in addition to, and not exclusive of, all other rights and remedies available at law, in equity or otherwise. No failure or delay on the part of any Guaranteed Party in exercising any right, power or privilege shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any Default or Event of Default. No course of dealing between any of the Guarantors and the Guaranteed Parties or their agents or employees shall be effective to amend, modify or discharge any provision of this Guaranty or any other Credit Document or to constitute a waiver of any Default or Event of Default. No notice to or demand upon any Guarantor in any case shall entitle such Guarantor or any other Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the right of any Guaranteed Party to exercise any right or remedy or take any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

9. Enforcement. The Guaranteed Parties agree that, except as provided in Section 7(c), this Guaranty may be enforced only by the Administrative Agent, acting upon the instructions or with the consent of the Required Lenders as provided for in the Credit Agreement, and that no Guaranteed Party shall have any right individually to enforce or seek to enforce this Guaranty or to realize upon any collateral or other security given to secure the payment and performance of the Guarantors’ obligations hereunder. The obligations of each Guarantor

hereunder are independent of the Guaranteed Obligations, and a separate action or actions may be brought against each Guarantor whether or not action is brought against the Borrower or any other Guarantor and whether or not the Borrower or any other Guarantor is joined in any such action. Each Guarantor agrees that to the extent all or part of any payment of the Guaranteed Obligations made by any Person is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid by or on behalf of any Guaranteed Party to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any Insolvency Laws (the amount of any such payment, a “Reclaimed Amount”), then, to the extent of such Reclaimed Amount, this Guaranty shall continue in full force and effect or be revived and reinstated, as the case may be, as to the Guaranteed Obligations intended to be satisfied as if such payment had not been received; and each Guarantor acknowledges that the term “Guaranteed Obligations” includes all Reclaimed Amounts that may arise from time to time.

10. Amendments, Waivers, etc. No amendment, modification, waiver, discharge or termination of, or consent to any departure by any Guarantor from, any provision of this Guaranty, shall be effective unless in a writing signed by the Administrative Agent and such of the Lenders as may be required under the provisions of the Credit Agreement to concur in the action then being taken, and then the same shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

11. Addition, Release of Guarantors. Each Guarantor recognizes that the provisions of the Credit Agreement require Persons that become Subsidiaries of the Borrower and that are not already parties hereto to become Guarantors hereunder by executing a Guarantor Accession, and agrees that its obligations hereunder shall not be discharged, limited or otherwise affected by reason of the same, or by reason of the Administrative Agent’s actions in effecting the same or in releasing any Guarantor hereunder, in each case without the necessity of giving notice to or obtaining the consent of any other Guarantor.

12. Continuing Guaranty; Term; Successors and Assigns; Assignment; Survival. This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and covers all of the Guaranteed Obligations as the same may arise and be outstanding at any time and from time to time from and after the date hereof, and shall (i) remain in full force and effect until satisfaction of all of the Termination Requirements (provided that the provisions of clause (ii) of Section 1(a) shall survive any termination of this Guaranty), (ii) be binding upon and enforceable against each Guarantor and its successors and assigns (provided, however, that no Guarantor may sell, assign or transfer any of its rights, interests, duties or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Lenders) and (iii) inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by each Guaranteed Party and its successors and assigns. Without limiting the generality of clause (iii) above, any Guaranteed Party may, in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement, assign all or a portion of the Guaranteed Obligations held by it (including by the sale of participations), whereupon each Person that becomes the holder of any such Guaranteed Obligations shall (except as may be otherwise agreed between such Guaranteed Party and such Person) have and may exercise all of the rights and benefits in respect thereof granted to such Guaranteed Party under this Guaranty or otherwise. Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives notice of and consents in advance to the assignment as provided above from time to time by any Guaranteed Party of all or any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations held by it and of the corresponding rights and interests of such Guaranteed Party hereunder in connection therewith. All representations, warranties, covenants

and agreements herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Guaranty and any Guarantor Accession.

13. Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Venue; Service of Process.

(a) This Guaranty and the other Credit Documents shall (except as may be expressly otherwise provided in any Credit Document) be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of North Carolina (without regard to the conflicts of law provisions thereof); provided that each Letter of Credit shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws or rules designated in such Letter of Credit or application therefor or, if no such laws or rules are designated, the International Standby Practices of the International Chamber of Commerce, as in effect from time to time (the “ISP”), and, as to matters not governed by the ISP, the laws of the State of North Carolina (without regard to the conflicts of law provisions thereof).

(b) The Borrower irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of North Carolina sitting in Mecklenburg County and of the United States District Court of the Western District of North Carolina, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Guaranty or any other Credit Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such state court or, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in such federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Guaranty or in any other Credit Document shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Guaranty or any other Credit Document against the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

(c) The Borrower irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Guaranty or any other Credit Document in any court referred to in Section 11.2(b). Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

(d) Each party hereto irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 11.4. Nothing in this Guaranty will affect the right of any party hereto to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable law.

14. Arbitration; Preservation and Limitation of Remedies.

Upon demand of any party hereto, whether made before or after institution of any judicial proceeding, any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of, connected with or relating to this Guaranty or any other Credit Document (“Disputes”) between or among the Guarantors and the Guaranteed Parties, or any of them, shall be resolved by binding arbitration as provided herein.

Institution of a judicial proceeding by a party does not waive the right of that party to demand arbitration hereunder. Disputes may include, without limitation, tort claims, counterclaims, claims brought as class actions, claims arising from documents executed in the future, disputes as to whether a matter is subject to arbitration, or claims arising out of or connected with the transactions contemplated by this Guaranty, the Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents. Arbitration shall be conducted under and governed by the Commercial Financial Disputes Arbitration Rules (the “Arbitration Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”), as in effect from time to time, and the Federal Arbitration Act, Title 9 of the U.S. Code, as amended. All arbitration hearings shall be conducted in the city in which the principal office of the Administrative Agent is located. A hearing shall begin within ninety (90) days of demand for arbitration and all hearings shall be concluded within 120 days of demand for arbitration. These time limitations may not be extended unless a party shows cause for extension and then for no more than a total of sixty (60) days. The expedited procedures set forth in Rule 51 et seq. of the Arbitration Rules shall be applicable to claims of less than $1,000,000. All applicable statutes of limitation shall apply to any Dispute. A judgment upon the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The panel from which all arbitrators are selected shall be comprised of licensed attorneys selected from the Commercial Financial Dispute Arbitration Panel of the AAA. The single arbitrator selected for expedited procedure shall be a retired judge from the highest court of general jurisdiction, state or federal, of the state where the hearing will be conducted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this arbitration provision does not apply to Disputes under or related to any Hedge Agreement. The parties do not waive applicable federal or state substantive law except as provided herein.

Notwithstanding the preceding binding arbitration provisions, the parties hereto agree to preserve, without diminution, certain remedies that any party hereto may employ or exercise freely, either alone, in conjunction with or during a Dispute. Any party hereto shall have the right to proceed in any court of proper jurisdiction or by self-help to exercise or prosecute the following remedies, as applicable: (i) obtaining provisional or ancillary remedies, including injunctive relief, sequestration, garnishment, attachment, appointment of a receiver and filing an involuntary bankruptcy proceeding; and (ii) when applicable, a judgment by confession of judgment. Any claim or controversy with regard to any party’s entitlement to such remedies is a Dispute. Preservation of these remedies does not limit the power of an arbitrator to grant similar remedies that may be requested by a party in a Dispute. The parties hereto agree that no party shall have a remedy of punitive or exemplary damages against any other party in any Dispute, and each party hereby waives any right or claim to punitive or exemplary damages that it has now or that may arise in the future in connection with any Dispute, whether such Dispute is resolved by arbitration or judicially. The parties acknowledge that by agreeing to binding arbitration they have irrevocably waived any right they may have to a jury trial with regard to a Dispute. The Guarantors agree, jointly and severally, to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Guaranteed Parties in connection with any Dispute subject to arbitration as provided herein.

15. Notices. All notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including telegraphic, telex, facsimile transmission or cable communication) and mailed, telegraphed, telexed, telecopied, cabled or delivered (a) if to any Guarantor, in care of the Borrower and at the Borrower’s address for notices set forth in the Credit Agreement and (b) if to any Guaranteed Party, at its address for notices set forth in the Credit Agreement; or to

such other address as any of the Persons listed above may designate for itself by like notice to the other Persons listed above; and in each case, with copies to such other Persons as may be specified under the provisions of the Credit Agreement.

16. Severability. To the extent any provision of this Guaranty is prohibited by or invalid under the applicable law of any jurisdiction, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity and only in such jurisdiction, without prohibiting or invalidating such provision in any other jurisdiction or the remaining provisions of this Guaranty in any jurisdiction.

17. Construction. The headings of the various sections and subsections of this Guaranty have been inserted for convenience only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or construction of any of the provisions hereof. Unless the context otherwise requires, words in the singular include the plural and words in the plural include the singular.

18. Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Guaranty may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

BORROWER’S INVESTMENT POLICY

See Attached.

Schedule 8.5B

OLD DOMINION FREIGHT LINE, INC.

INVESTMENT POLICY

July 31, 2006

Purpose:

The purpose of this Investment policy is to provide objectives and guidelines to the Treasury function for investing excess cash generated by the Company. Priorities for the use of cash, in order, are:

•

Purchase of operating assets,

•

Pay down current debt where debt cost is higher than current yields on temporary investments including any prepayment penalty, and

•

Invest in short term, low risk financial instruments.

Investing opportunities that are not within the scope of this policy must have written approval of the Executive Committee.

Investment Objectives:

The investment objectives are to maximize after-tax income, preserve principal value and maintain adequate liquidity to meet account demands.

Investment Goals:

The investment goal is to provide a competitive investment return consistent with the objectives outlined in this policy. Limits on liquidity and risk within this policy may limit the return that can be expected on investment. However, it should be expected that the tax-equivalent yields should at least be equal to or higher than six-month certificate of deposit yields as published daily in the Wall Street Journal.

Investment Guidelines:

The investment guidelines are to invest in U.S. dollar denominated taxable and tax-free fixed income securities.

At the time of purchase, no one issuer will be more than 10% of the account’s market value at time of purchase. This rule excludes obligations of the U.S. Government and U.S. Government sponsored agencies and enterprises, money market funds, and securities that have an effective maturity no longer than the next business day. Obligations of U.S. Government sponsored agencies and enterprises are limited to 40% of the account’s market value at time of purchase, per issuer.

Issuer Credit Quality Guidelines:

Since the Company is in the business of transporting goods and not finance, the investing of excess cash should be accomplished with minimum risk. Risk is defined as the probability of loss of principal. To be considered an eligible investment, issuers must meet the credit quality criteria outlined below.

A.	Obligations of the U.S. Government and of U.S. Government sponsored agencies are approved securities.

U.S. Treasury Bills, Notes, Bonds and Strips and other obligations whose principal and interest is fully guaranteed by the United States of America.

Federal Agencies and Government Sponsored Enterprises: Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA), Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA), World Bank, Federal Farm Credit Bank (FFCB), Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA), Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC), Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB), Student Loan Marketing Association (SLMA), Financing Corporation (FICO), The Resolution Funding Corporation (REFCO), Farm Credit System Financial Assistance Corporation, the Federal Housing Finance Board and all other government sponsored agencies and enterprises.

Schedule 8.5B

Money Market Instruments: securities rated “X0, X0, X0, X0, XXX-0/XXXX-0, SP-1” or the equivalent (Tier I as defined by 2(a) 7 money market funds) at the time of purchase. Included but not limited to commercial paper, banker’s acceptances, time deposits, certificates of deposit, taxable municipal securities, money market preferreds, dutch auction securities and unconditional demand floating rate securities.

C.	Money Market Mutual Funds and Mutual Funds comprised of the listed eligible investments.

D.	Corporate obligations: Corporate Bonds and Medium Term Notes (MTN’s) with long-term debt ratings of at least “Investment Grade”.

E.	Taxable and Tax Exempt Municipal Bonds: included but not limited to unconditional demand and put securities, commercial paper and notes and other obligations of indebtedness, rated “A” or better.

F.	Auction Rate Preferred Stocks: Dutch auction preferred securities, which have various reset dates and are rated “A” or better.

G.	Asset-Backed Securities: rated “AAA”.

H.	Mortgage-Backed Securities and Collateralized Mortgage Obligations: rated “AAA”.

I.	Repurchase agreements:

Must be collateralized by obligations of the U.S. Government or U.S. Government sponsored agencies.

Must be collateralized at 102% of market value including accrued interest.

Broker/dealers must be primary dealers as recognized by the Federal Reserve.

J.	All securities purchased will be rated by at least one of the following nationally recognized ratings agency: Standard & Poor’s, Xxxxx’x, Duff & Xxxxxx, Fitch IBCA, or Xxxxxxxx BankWatch.

K.	Hold/sell discipline:

In the event that any issuers or securities that are held, have been subsequently downgraded to below their specified purchase criteria, Treasury management shall determine whether the security should be held to maturity or sold at the earliest convenient time.

Liquidity:

Old Dominion is in the business of transporting goods of general commodities within its service area. In providing this service, the Company feels it can achieve the highest return on its cash by investing in the replacement of or addition to operating assets. As such, excess cash investments should generally have staggered maturity dates not to exceed one year.

Excess cash can be invested for periods longer than one year if it can be clearly demonstrated by the treasury function that the invested cash will not be needed for operating cash requirements before the extended maturity horizon and the rate of return is materially greater than the short term rates without increased risk.

Put and/or Reset Dates will be used in lieu of final maturity for the purpose of maturity acceptability. Market accepted average life at time of purchase shall be used in lieu of final maturity for the purpose of maturity acceptability of asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities.
