may designate not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time.
SECTION 2.03. Evidence of Debt; Repayment of Notes. (a) The Issuer hereby unconditionally
promises to pay to each Purchaser the principal amount of each Note held by such Purchaser as
provided in Section 2.07.
(b) Each Purchaser shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts
evidencing the sale by the Issuer to such Purchaser of such Notes, including the amounts of
principal and cash interest payable and paid to such Purchaser from time to time under this
Agreement.
(c) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) above shall be prima
facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations therein recorded; provided, however,
that the failure of any Purchaser to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any
manner affect the obligations of the Issuer to repay the Notes in accordance with their terms.
(d) On the Closing Date, the Issuer shall execute and deliver to each Purchaser a Note payable
to such Purchaser and its registered assigns in substantially the form attached hereto as
Exhibit C.
SECTION 2.04. Interest on Notes. (a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.05, the Notes
shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of
360 days) at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Percentage.
(b) Interest on each Note shall be payable in cash on the Interest Payment Dates except as
otherwise provided in this Agreement.
SECTION 2.05. Default Interest. While any Event of Default exists, to the extent permitted by
law, the Obligations shall bear cash interest (after as well as before judgment), payable on
demand, at the rate otherwise applicable to a Note pursuant to Section 2.04 plus 2.00% per annum.
SECTION 2.06. Termination of Commitments. The Commitments shall automatically terminate upon
the purchase and sale of the Notes on the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all the
Commitments shall automatically terminate at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on May 1, 2008 if the
Closing Date shall not have occurred by such time.
SECTION 2.07. Repayment of Notes. To the extent not previously paid, all Notes shall be due
and payable on the Maturity Date together with accrued and unpaid cash interest on the principal
amount to be paid to but excluding the date of payment. The Issuer shall pay all such amounts to
the Purchasers on the Maturity Date or, if the Maturity Date is not a Business Day, on the next
preceding Business Day. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing or in the
definition of “Maturity Date”, any repayment of the Notes on the date of consummation of the
Acquisition shall be deemed an optional prepayment of the Notes pursuant to Section 2.08(a)
hereof (but not subject to Section 2.08(b)) unless the Notes are repaid with the proceeds of a
debt financing provided by the Administrative Agent or its Affiliates.
SECTION 2.08. Prepayment. (a) The Issuer shall have the right at any time and from time to
time to prepay amounts owed under the Notes, in whole or in part, at 100% of the principal amount
so prepaid, plus the prepayment premium (expressed as percentages of principal amount being
prepaid) set forth below (the “Applicable Prepayment Premium”) determined for the prepayment date
with respect to such principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid cash interest, to but excluding the
applicable prepayment date (provided, however, that each partial prepayment shall be in an amount
that is an integral multiple of $100,000 and not less than $500,000):
If Prepaid: | Percentage | |||
From and after the Closing Date but prior to the first
anniversary of the Closing Date
|
102 | % | ||
From and after the first anniversary of the Closing Date but
prior to second anniversary of the Closing Date
|
101 | % | ||
From and after the second anniversary of the Closing Date
|
100 | % |
The Issuer will give at least 5 Business Days’ prior written notice of each optional
prepayment under this Section 2.08(a) to the Administrative Agent and the Purchasers. Each such
notice shall specify the prepayment date, the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be prepaid
on such date, the principal amount of each Note owned by such Purchaser to be prepaid (determined
in accordance with Section 2.11), and the interest to be paid on the prepayment date with respect
to such principal amount being prepaid, and shall be accompanied by a certificate of a Financial
Officer as to the estimated Applicable Prepayment Premium due in connection with such prepayment
(calculated as if the date of such notice were the date of the prepayment), setting forth the
details of such computation. Such notice shall be irrevocable and shall commit the Issuer to
prepay the Notes by the amount stated therein on the date stated therein. Two Business Days prior
to such prepayment, the Issuer shall deliver to each Purchaser and the Administrative Agent a
certificate of a Financial Officer specifying the calculation of such Applicable Prepayment Premium
as of the specified prepayment date.
(b) Upon the issuance or incurrence by the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries of any
Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness permitted under Section 6.01), or the issuance by the Issuer
or any of its Subsidiaries of its or their Equity Interests, the Issuer shall promptly use 100% of
all such proceeds received by the Issuer to either (i) prepay the existing Indebtedness of the
Issuer or (ii) prepay the principal amount of the Notes plus the Applicable Prepayment Premium and
accrued and unpaid cash interest thereon. The provisions of this clause (b) shall not be deemed to
be implied consent to any such issuance or incurrence otherwise prohibited by the terms and
conditions of this Agreement.
(c) All prepayments under this Section 2.08 shall be subject to Section 2.10.
SECTION 2.09. Reserve Requirements; Change in Circumstances. (a) Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement, if any Change in Law shall impose, modify or deem applicable any
reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account
of or Notes purchased by any Purchaser or shall impose on such Purchaser any other condition
affecting this Agreement or Notes made by such Purchaser, and the result of any of the foregoing
shall be to increase the cost to such Purchaser of making or maintaining any Notes or to reduce the
amount of any sum received or receivable by such Purchaser hereunder (whether of principal,
interest or otherwise) by an amount deemed by such Purchaser to be material, then the Issuer will
pay to such Purchaser, upon demand, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such
Purchaser for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.
(b) If any Purchaser shall have determined that any Change in Law regarding capital adequacy
has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Purchaser’s capital or on the
capital of such Purchaser’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the
Notes purchased by such Purchaser pursuant hereto to a level below that which such Purchaser or
such Purchaser’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into
consideration such Purchaser’s policies and the policies of such Purchaser’s holding company with
respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Purchaser to be material, then from time
to time the Issuer shall pay to such Purchaser such additional amount or amounts as will compensate
such Purchaser or such Purchaser’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.
(c) A certificate of a Purchaser setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate
such Purchaser or its holding company, as applicable, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) above
shall be delivered to the Issuer and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Issuer shall
pay such Purchaser the amount shown as due on any such certificate delivered by it within 10 days
after its receipt of the same.
(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Purchaser to demand compensation for any increased
costs or reduction in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital shall not
constitute a waiver of such Purchaser’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Issuer
shall not be under any obligation to compensate any Purchaser under paragraph (a) or (b) above with
respect to increased costs or reductions with respect to any period prior to the date that is
120 days prior to such request if such Purchaser knew or could reasonably have been expected to
know of the circumstances giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of the fact that
such circumstances would result in a claim for increased compensation by reason of such increased
costs or reductions; provided further that the foregoing limitation shall not apply to any
increased costs or reductions arising out of the retroactive application of any Change in Law
within such 120-day period. The protection of this Section shall be available to each Purchaser
and regardless of any possible contention of the invalidity or inapplicability of the Change in Law
that shall have occurred or been imposed.
SECTION 2.10. Indemnity. The Issuer shall indemnify each Purchaser against any loss or
expense that such Purchaser may sustain or incur as a consequence of any default in the
making of any payment or prepayment required to be made hereunder. A certificate of any
Purchaser setting forth any amount or amounts which such Purchaser is entitled to receive pursuant
to this Section 2.10 shall be delivered to the Issuer and shall be conclusive absent manifest
error.
SECTION 2.11. Pro Rata Treatment. Each payment or prepayment of principal of the Notes and
each payment of cash interest or Applicable Prepayment Premium on the Notes shall be allocated pro
rata among the Purchasers in accordance with the respective principal amounts of their Notes.
SECTION 2.12. Sharing of Setoffs. Each Purchaser agrees that if it shall, through the
exercise of a right of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim against the Issuer or any other Loan
Party, or pursuant to a secured claim under Section 506 of Title 11 of the United States Code or
other security or interest arising from, or in lieu of, such secured claim, received by such
Purchaser under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law or otherwise, or by any
other means, obtain payment (voluntary or involuntary) in respect of any Note as a result of which
the unpaid principal portion of its Notes shall be proportionately less than the unpaid principal
portion of the Notes of any other Purchaser, it shall be deemed simultaneously to have purchased
from such other Purchaser at face value, and shall promptly pay to such other Purchaser the
purchase price for, a participation in the Notes of such other Purchaser, so that the aggregate
unpaid principal amount of the Notes and participations in Notes held by each Purchaser shall be in
the same proportion to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Notes then outstanding as the
principal amount of its Notes prior to such exercise of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim or
other event was to the principal amount of all Notes outstanding prior to such exercise of banker’s
lien, setoff or counterclaim or other event; provided, however, that if any such purchase or
purchases or adjustments shall be made pursuant to this Section 2.12 and the payment giving rise
thereto shall thereafter be recovered, such purchase or purchases or adjustments shall be rescinded
to the extent of such recovery and the purchase price or prices or adjustment restored without
interest. The Issuer expressly consents to the foregoing arrangements and agrees that any
Purchaser holding a participation in a Note deemed to have been so purchased may exercise any and
all rights of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim with respect to any and all moneys owing by the
Issuer to such Purchaser by reason thereof as fully as if such Purchaser had purchased a Note
directly from the Issuer in the amount of such participation.
SECTION 2.13. Payments. (a) The Issuer shall make each payment (including principal of or
interest on any Note or any fees or other amounts) hereunder and under any other Transaction
Document not later than 12:00 (noon), New York City time, on the date when due in immediately
available dollars, without setoff, defense or counterclaim. Each such payment that is payable to a
Purchaser shall be paid directly to such Purchaser at the office identified on Schedule 2.01 for
such Purchaser or as otherwise directed by such Purchaser in writing from time to time, and each
such payment that is payable to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent shall be paid
directly to the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, at their respective
offices identified on Schedule 2.01 or as otherwise directed by the Administrative Agent or
Collateral Agent, as applicable, in writing from time to time.
(b) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, whenever any payment (including principal
of or cash interest or the Applicable Prepayment Premium on any Note or any fees or other amounts)
hereunder or under any other Transaction Document shall become due, or otherwise would occur, on a
day that is not a Business Day, such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and
such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or fees, if
applicable.
SECTION 2.14. Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the
Issuer or any other Loan Party hereunder or under any other Transaction Document shall be made free
and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that, if the
Issuer or any other Loan Party shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes
from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making
all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this
Section) the Administrative Agent or Purchaser (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the
sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Issuer or such Loan Party
shall make such deductions and (iii) the Issuer or such Loan Party shall pay the full amount
deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.
(b) In addition, the Issuer shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority
in accordance with applicable law.
(c) The Issuer shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Purchaser, within 10 days
after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by
the Administrative Agent or such Purchaser, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment
by or on account of any obligation of the Issuer or any other Loan Party hereunder or under any
other Transaction Document (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or
attributable to amounts payable under this Section) 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 Issuer by a Purchaser,
or by the Administrative Agent on behalf of itself, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Issuer
or any other Loan Party to a Governmental Authority, the Issuer shall deliver to the Administrative
Agent or the applicable Purchaser, as the case may be, 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 or the applicable Purchaser, as the case may be.
(e) Any Foreign Purchaser that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding
tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Issuer is located, or any treaty to which such
jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the Issuer
(with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law, such
properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable
law or reasonably requested by the Issuer as will permit such payments to be made without
withholding or at a reduced rate.
(f) If the Administrative Agent or any Purchaser determines, in its sole discretion, that it
has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified
by the Issuer or with respect to which the Issuer has paid additional amounts pursuant to this
Section 2.14, it shall pay over such refund to the Issuer (but only to the extent of indemnity
payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Issuer under this Section 2.14 with respect to
the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses
of the Administrative Agent or such Purchaser and without interest (other than any interest paid by
the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, that the Issuer, upon
the request of the Administrative Agent or such Purchaser, agrees to repay the amount paid over to
the Issuer (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental
Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Purchaser in the event the Administrative Agent or
such Purchaser is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph
shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Purchaser to make available its
tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to the
Issuer or any other person.
SECTION 2.15. Assignment of Notes Under Certain Circumstances; Duty to Mitigate. If (a) any
Purchaser shall request compensation under Section 2.09 or (b) the Issuer is required to pay any
additional amount to any Purchaser or any Governmental Authority on account of any Purchaser
pursuant to Section 2.14, then such Purchaser shall use reasonable efforts (which shall not require
such Purchaser to incur an unreimbursed loss or unreimbursed cost or expense or otherwise take any
action inconsistent with its internal policies or legal or regulatory restrictions or suffer any
disadvantage or burden deemed by it to be significant) (i) to file any certificate or document
reasonably requested in writing by the Issuer or (ii) to assign its rights and delegate and
transfer its obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if such
filing or assignment would reduce its claims for compensation under Section 2.09 or would reduce
amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.14, as the case may be, in the future. The Issuer hereby
agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Purchaser in connection with any
such filing or assignment, delegation and transfer.
SECTION 2.16. Issuance of Warrant. Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth in
this Agreement, the Issuer agrees to issue to the Purchasers on the Closing Date, Warrants to
purchase in the aggregate 12,500,000 shares (the “Warrant Shares”) of the Issuer’s Common Stock, no
par value per share (“Common Stock”), at an exercise price initially equal to $0.28 per Warrant
Share, which shall be appropriately adjusted subsequently for any recapitalizations, stock
combinations, stock dividends, stock splits and the like which occur after the Closing Date as set
forth in the Form of Warrants.
So long as the Purchasers hold an aggregate of 1,250,000 Warrant Shares or Warrants
exercisable for 1,250,000 Warrant Shares (which shall be appropriately adjusted subsequently for
any recapitalizations, stock combinations, stock dividends, stock splits and the like which occur
after the Closing Date), upon the request of the Purchasers who hold the Warrants and Warrant
Shares from time to time, such Purchasers shall be entitled to appoint and the Issuer
shall take all necessary corporate action to appoint to its board of directors one designee
selected by such Purchasers.
So long as the Purchasers hold an aggregate of 2,500,000 Warrant Shares or Warrants
exercisable for 2,500,000 Warrant Shares (which shall be appropriately adjusted subsequently for
any recapitalizations, stock combinations, stock dividends, stock splits and the like which occur
after the Closing Date), upon the request of the Purchasers who hold the Warrants and Warrant
Shares from time to time, such Purchasers shall be entitled to appoint and the Issuer shall take
all necessary corporate action to appoint to its board of directors three designees selected by
such Purchasers.

any Lien upon or with respect to any property or assets now owned or hereafter acquired by the

Security Agreement).
SECTION 3.03. Enforceability. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the
Issuer and constitutes, and each other Transaction Document when executed and delivered by each
Loan Party thereto will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Loan Party
enforceable against such Loan Party in accordance with its terms.
SECTION 3.04. Governmental Approvals. No action, consent or approval of, registration or
filing with or any other action by any Governmental Authority is or will be required in connection
with the Transactions, except for (a) the filing of Uniform Commercial Code financing statements

SECTION 3.05. Financial Statements. The Issuer has heretofore furnished to the Purchasers
(a) U.S. GAAP audited consolidated or combined, as applicable, balance sheets and related

results of operations and cash flows of the Issuer as of such dates and for such periods. Such
balance sheets and the notes thereto disclose all material liabilities, direct or contingent, of
the Issuer as of the dates thereof. Such financial statements were prepared in accordance with

(a) Except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, each of the Loan

(c) As of the Closing Date, the Issuer and its Subsidiaries own or have the right to use, all
Intellectual Property used in the conduct of their business, except where the failure to own or

Adverse Effect. No claim has been asserted and is pending by any person challenging or questioning
the use of any such Intellectual Property or the validity or effectiveness of any such Intellectual
Property, nor does the Issuer know of any valid basis for any such claim, except
for such claims that in the aggregate could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material
Adverse Effect. The use of such Intellectual Property by the Issuer and its Subsidiaries does not
infringe on the rights of any person, except for such claims and infringements that, in the
aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. All federal
and state and all foreign registrations of and applications for Intellectual Property, and all
unregistered Intellectual Property, that are owned or licensed by the Issuer or any of its
Subsidiaries on the Closing Date are described on Schedule III to the Guarantee and Collateral

before any Governmental Authority now pending or, to the knowledge of the Issuer, threatened
against or affecting any of the Loan Parties or any business, property or rights of any such person
that could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material
Adverse Effect.
(b) Except as disclosed in Schedule 3.09 or the TRM SEC Documents, none of the Loan Parties or
any of their respective material properties or assets is in violation of, nor will the continued
operation of their material properties and assets as currently conducted violate, any law, rule or
regulation (including any zoning, building, Environmental Law, ordinance, code or approval or any
building permits), or is in default with respect to any judgment, writ, injunction, decree or order
of any Governmental Authority, where such violation or default could reasonably be expected to

that is inconsistent with, the provisions of the Regulations of the Board, including Regulation T,
U or X.
SECTION 3.12. Government Regulation. None of the Loan Parties is an “investment company” as
defined in, or subject to regulation under, the Investment Company Act of 1940. None of the Loan
Parties is subject to regulation under the Federal Power Act, the Interstate Commerce Act, the ICC
Termination Act, as amended, or under any other federal or state statute or regulation which may
limit its ability to incur Indebtedness or Contingent Obligations or which may otherwise render all
or any portion of the Obligations unenforceable.
SECTION 3.13. Use of Proceeds. The Issuer will use the proceeds of the Notes only for the
purposes specified in the preliminary statement to this Agreement.
SECTION 3.14. Taxes. Each of the Loan Parties has filed or caused to be filed all Federal,
state, local and foreign tax returns or materials required to have been filed by it and has paid or
caused to be paid all taxes due and payable by it and all assessments received by it, except taxes
that are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which the applicable Loan
Party shall have set aside on its books adequate reserves.
SECTION 3.15. Disclosure. All factual information (taken as a whole) furnished by or on
behalf of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries in writing to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral
Agent or any Purchaser (including all information contained in the Schedules hereto or in the other
Transaction Documents) for purposes of or in connection with this Agreement, the other Transaction
Documents, or any transaction contemplated herein or therein is, and all other such factual
information (taken as a whole) hereafter furnished by or on behalf of the Issuer or its
Subsidiaries in writing to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Purchaser will be,
true and accurate in all material respects on the date as of which such information is dated or
certified and not incomplete by omitting to state any fact necessary to make such information
(taken as a whole) not misleading in any material respect at such time in light of the
circumstances under which such information was provided. No representation or warranty of any Loan
Party contained in any Transaction Document or in any other document, certificate or written
statement furnished to the Agent or the Purchasers by or on behalf of the Issuer or any of its
Subsidiaries for use in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement contains
any untrue statement of a material fact. There are no facts known (or which should upon the
reasonable exercise of diligence be known) to the Loan Parties (other than matters of a general
economic nature) that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in
a Material Adverse Effect and that have not been disclosed herein or in such other documents,
certificates and statements furnished to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the
Purchasers for use in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.
SECTION 3.16. Employee Benefit Plans. Each of the Issuer and its ERISA Affiliates is in
compliance in all material respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code and the
regulations and published interpretations thereunder. No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably
expected to occur that, when taken together with all other such ERISA Events, could reasonably be
expected to result in material liability of the Issuer or any of its ERISA Affiliates. The present
value of all benefit liabilities under each Plan (based on the assumptions used for purposes of
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 87) did not, as of the last annual valuation date
applicable thereto, exceed the fair market value of the assets of such Plan, and the present value
of all benefit liabilities of all underfunded Plans (based on the assumptions used for purposes of
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 87) did not, as of the last annual valuation dates
applicable thereto, exceed the fair market value of the assets of all such underfunded Plans.
SECTION 3.17. Environmental Matters. Except as set forth in Schedule 3.17, none of the Loan
Parties (i) has failed to comply with any Environmental Law or to obtain, maintain or comply with

Issuer will (and will cause its Subsidiaries to), at its cost and expense, promptly secure the
Obligations by pledging or creating, or causing to be pledged or created, perfected security
interests with respect to such of its assets and properties as the Administrative Agent or the
Required Lenders shall designate (it being understood that it is the intent of the parties that the
Obligations shall be secured by substantially all the assets of the Loan Parties (including real
and other properties acquired subsequent to the Closing Date)). Such security interests and Liens
will be created under the Security Documents and other security agreements, mortgages, deeds of
trust and other instruments and documents in form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral
Agent, and the Issuer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Purchasers all such instruments
and documents (including legal opinions, title insurance policies and lien searches) as the
Collateral Agent shall reasonably request to evidence compliance with this Section. The Issuer
agrees to provide such evidence as the Collateral Agent shall reasonably request as to the
perfection and priority status of each such security interest and Lien. In furtherance of the
foregoing, the Issuer will give prompt notice to the Administrative Agent of the acquisition by it
or any of the Subsidiaries of any real property (or any interest in real property) having a value
in excess of $10,000
(b) Upon the consummation of any acquisition of any person by any of the Loan Parties, upon
the formation by any of the Loan Parties of any Subsidiary, or upon any Subsidiary ceasing to be a
Dormant Subsidiary (either because the Issuer voluntarily withdraws such designation or because
such designation is deemed withdrawn pursuant to Section 6.14), the Issuer shall cause the
person so acquired or formed, or such Subsidiary that is no longer a Dormant Subsidiary, as the
case may be, at the election of the Administrative Agent or Required Purchasers, to be designated
as a Subsidiary Guarantor of the Obligations. Such person shall become a Loan Party by executing
the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and each applicable Security Document in favor of the
Collateral Agent. In addition, (i) such person shall execute and deliver such Security Documents,
agreements and documents as the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or the Required Purchasers
may reasonably request to grant a first priority perfected Lien in respect of substantially all of
its real and personal property in favor of the Collateral Agent and the Purchasers, and (ii) the
Loan Parties owning Equity Interests in such person shall pledge all such Equity Interests in such
person.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section
5.11, no Foreign Subsidiary shall be required to grant a security interest in its assets to
secure the Obligations or to guarantee the Obligations to the extent the granting of such security
interest or the making of such guarantee (i) would result in adverse tax consequences to the Issuer
(as certified to the Administrative Agent by a Financial Officer of the Issuer) or (ii) is
prohibited by applicable law.
(d) Use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver to the Collateral Agent a Landlord Consent,
Estoppel and Collateral Access Agreement or bailee letter, as applicable, from the lessor of each
Leasehold Property or bailee with respect to any warehouse or other location where Collateral is
stored or located, unless otherwise consented to by the Collateral Agent; provided that the Loan
Parties shall deliver to the Collateral Agent a Landlord Consent, Estoppel and Collateral Access
Agreement from the lessor of the Leasehold Property where the Loan Parties’ books and records are
located.
(e) Deliver to the Collateral Agent, Administrative Agent and the Purchasers legal opinions
relating to the matters described in this Section 5.11, which opinions shall be as
reasonably required by, and in form and substance and from counsel reasonably satisfactory to, the
Collateral Agent and Administrative Agent.
SECTION 5.12. Ranking. Ensure that, at all times, all liabilities of the Issuer and its
Subsidiaries under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents shall rank in right of payment
either pari passu or senior to all other Indebtedness and Contingent Obligations of the Issuer and
its Subsidiaries.
SECTION 5.13. Information Regarding Collateral.
(a) Furnish to the Administrative Agent prompt written notice of any change (i) in any Loan
Party’s corporate name, (ii) in the jurisdiction of organization or formation of any Loan Party,
(iii) in any Loan Party’s identity or corporate structure or (iv) in any Loan Party’s Federal
Taxpayer Identification Number. The Issuer agrees not to effect or permit any change referred to
in the preceding sentence unless all filings have been made under the Uniform Commercial Code
or otherwise that are required in order for the Collateral Agent to continue at all times
following such change to have a valid, legal and perfected security interest in all the Collateral.
The Issuer also agrees promptly to notify the Administrative Agent if any material portion of the
Collateral is damaged or destroyed.
(b) In the case of the Issuer, each year, at the time of delivery of the annual financial
statements with respect to the preceding fiscal year pursuant to Section 5.04(e), deliver
to the Administrative Agent a certificate of a Financial Officer setting forth the information
required pursuant to Section 2 of the Perfection Certificate or confirming that there has been no
change in such information since the date of the Perfection Certificate delivered on the Closing
Date or the date of the most recent certificate delivered pursuant to this Section 5.13.
SECTION 5.14. Assignability of Contracts. Use commercially reasonable efforts to exclude from all
agreements or documents entered into after the Closing Date, any term or provision that would
prevent a Loan Party from granting a Lien in such agreements or documents to the Collateral Agent
under the Security Documents.
SECTION 5.15. Post-Closing Covenants.
(a) Within 60 days of the Closing Date, the Issuer shall have entered into a vault cash
agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, as a complete
and total replacement to the DZ Bank Agreement. Concurrently therewith, the Issuer shall (i)

Subsidiaries and Affiliates) under the DZ Bank Agreement execute and deliver, (ii) repay in full

Lien on any Affiliate of such Group Member’s property in favor of GE Capital Vehicle and Equipment
Leasing or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates to be terminated and any related UCC-1 financing
statements to be terminated, in each case, in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent.
(g) Within 10 Business Days of the Closing Date, the Issuer shall have delivered to the

standing under the laws of, the State of New Jersey. During such 10 Business Day period, the
failure of the Issuer to be qualified to do business in, and in good standing under the laws of,
the State of New Jersey shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default hereunder or a breach of
Section 3.01(a) or (c) hereof.

(k) an ERISA Event shall have occurred that, in the opinion of the Required Purchasers, when

(n) any material subordinated Indebtedness of the Issuer and the Subsidiaries constituting

(o) the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries shall be convicted under any criminal law that could

(p) there shall have occurred a Change in Control;
then, and in every such event (other than an event with respect to the Loan Parties described in
paragraph (g) or (h) above), and at any time thereafter during the continuance of such event, the
Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the Required Purchasers shall, by notice to the
Issuer, take either or both of the following actions, at the same or different times:
(i) terminate forthwith the Commitments and (ii) declare the Notes then outstanding to be forthwith
due and payable in whole or in part, whereupon the principal of the Notes so declared to be due and
payable (and accrued cash interest thereon), the Applicable Prepayment Premium, and any unpaid
accrued fees and all other liabilities of the Loan Parties accrued hereunder and under any other
Transaction Document, shall become forthwith due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest
or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Issuer, anything
contained herein or in any other Transaction Document to the contrary notwithstanding; and in any
event with respect to the Loan Parties described in paragraph (g) or (h) above, the Commitments
shall automatically terminate and the principal of the Notes then outstanding (and accrued cash
interest thereon) and any unpaid accrued fees and all other liabilities of the Issuer accrued
hereunder and under any other Transaction Document, shall automatically become due and payable,
without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby
expressly waived the Issuer, anything contained herein or in any other Transaction Document to the
contrary notwithstanding.
If the amounts owed under the Notes are accelerated for any reason, including, without limitation,
because of default, sale, transfer or encumbrance (including that by operation of law or otherwise)
or if the Notes are repaid for any reason (including, without limitation, pursuant to a plan of
reorganization or otherwise as party of any insolvency, bankruptcy or similar proceeding) following
the occurrence of an Event of Default or otherwise and whether or not the Notes are accelerated,
the Applicable Prepayment Premium will also be due and payable as though said indebtedness was
voluntarily prepaid as of such date of acceleration and shall constitute part of the Obligations,
in view of the impracticability and extreme difficulty of ascertaining actual damages and by mutual
agreement of the parties as to a reasonable calculation of the Purchasers’ lost profits as a result
thereof. The Applicable Prepayment Premium shall be presumed to be the liquidated damages
sustained by the Purchasers as the result of the early termination and the Issuer agrees that it is
reasonable under the circumstances currently existing. THE ISSUER EXPRESSLY WAIVES THE PROVISIONS
OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAW WHICH PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF THE
FOREGOING PREPAYMENT FEE IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH ACCELERATION.
The Issuer further expressly agrees that: (i) the Applicable Prepayment Premium provided for herein
is reasonable; (ii) the Applicable Prepayment Premium shall be payable notwithstanding the then
prevailing market rates at the time payment is made; (iii) there has been a course of
conduct between the Purchasers and the Issuer giving specific consideration in this transaction for
such agreement to pay the Applicable Prepayment Premium; and (iv) the Issuer shall be estopped
hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this paragraph. The Issuer expressly
acknowledges that its agreement to pay the Applicable Prepayment Premium to the Purchasers as
herein described is a material inducement to the Purchasers to purchase the Notes.
ARTICLE IX
The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent
Each of the Purchasers hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent and the Collateral
Agent (for purposes of this Article IX, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent are
referred to collectively as the “Agents”) its agent and authorizes the Agents to take such actions
on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to such Agent by the terms of the
Transaction Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agents are hereby expressly authorized to
execute any and all documents (including releases) with respect to the Collateral and the rights of
the Secured Parties with respect thereto, as contemplated by and in accordance with the provisions
of this Agreement and the Security Documents.
The person serving as the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent hereunder shall
have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Purchaser as any other Purchaser and may
exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and such person and its affiliates may provide
debt financing, equity capital or other services (including financial advisory services) to any of
the Loan Parties (or any person engaged in similar business as that engaged in by any of the Loan
Parties) as if such person was not performing the duties specified herein, and may accept fees and
other consideration from any of the Loan Parties for services in connection with this Agreement and
otherwise without having to account for the same to the Purchasers.
Neither Agent shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the
Transaction Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) neither Agent shall
be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred
and is continuing, (b) neither Agent shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or
exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated
hereby that such Agent is instructed in writing to exercise by the Required Purchasers (or such
other number or percentage of the Purchasers as shall be necessary under the circumstances as
provided in Section 10.08), and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Transaction Documents,
neither Agent shall have any duty to disclose, nor shall it be liable for the failure to disclose,
any information relating to the Issuer or any of the Subsidiaries that is communicated to or
obtained by the person serving as Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent or any of its
Affiliates in any capacity. Neither Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it
with the consent or at the request of the Required Purchasers (or such other number or percentage
of the Purchasers as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.08) or in
the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Neither Agent shall be deemed to
have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until written notice thereof is given
to such Agent by the Issuer or a Purchaser, and neither Agent shall be responsible for or have any
duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty
or representation made in or in connection with any Transaction Document, (ii) the contents of
any certificate, report or other document delivered thereunder or in connection therewith,
(iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or
conditions set forth in any Transaction Document, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness
or genuineness of any Transaction Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or
(v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Transaction
Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to such Agent.
Each Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon,
any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing
believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper person. Each Agent may
also rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made
by the proper person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. Each Agent may
consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Issuer), independent accountants and other
experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in
accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.
Each Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through
any one or more sub-agents appointed by it. Each Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and
all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties.
The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the
Related Parties of each Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective
activities in connection with the syndication of the Credit Facilities as well as activities as
Agent.
Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Agent as provided below, either Agent
may resign at any time by notifying the Purchasers and the Issuer. Upon any such resignation, the
Required Purchasers shall have the right, in consultation with the Issuer, to appoint a successor.
If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Purchasers and shall have accepted
such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the
retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Purchasers, appoint a successor Agent which shall be a bank
with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank. Upon the acceptance of its
appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested
with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent
shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Issuer to a
successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed
between the Issuer and such successor. After an Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of
this Article and Section 10.05 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Agent, its
sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be
taken by any of them while acting as Agent.
Each Purchaser acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agents or
any other Purchaser and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made
its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Purchaser also
acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agents or any other
Purchaser and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem
appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or
based upon this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, any related agreement or any
document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

executed by the Issuer, the Administrative Agent and each of the Purchasers party hereto as of the
date hereof and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when
taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto.
SECTION 10.04. Successors and Assigns. (a) Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties
hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the permitted successors and
assigns of such party; and all covenants, promises and agreements by or on behalf of the Issuer,
the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Purchasers that are contained in this
Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns.
(b) Each Purchaser may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its interests,
rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the
Notes at the time owing to it), with the prior written consent of the Issuer and the Administrative
Agent (such consents not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however, that (i) the
consent of the Issuer shall not be required to any such assignment made (A) to another Purchaser or
an Affiliate of a Purchaser, (B) during the primary syndication of the Notes and the Commitments to
persons identified to the Issuer prior to the Closing Date or (C) after the occurrence and during
the continuance of any Event of Default, (ii) the amount of the Commitment or Notes of the
assigning Purchaser subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and
Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall be in an
integral multiple of, and not less than, $500,000 (or, if less, the entire remaining amount of such
Purchaser’s Commitment or Notes), (iii) the parties to each such assignment shall manually execute
and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing
and recordation fee of $3,500 (provided that only one such fee shall be payable in the case of
concurrent assignments to persons that, after giving effect to such assignments, will be Related
Funds), and (iv) the assignee, if it shall not be a Purchaser, shall deliver to the Administrative
Agent an Administrative Questionnaire and all applicable tax forms. Upon acceptance and recording
pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section 10.04, from and after the effective date specified in
each Assignment and Acceptance, (A) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the
extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations
of a Purchaser under this Agreement and (B) the assigning Purchaser thereunder shall, to the extent
of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under
this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining
portion of an assigning Purchaser’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Purchaser
shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.09,
2.10, 2.14 and 10.05).
(c) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the assigning Purchaser
thereunder and the assignee thereunder shall be deemed to confirm to and agree with each other and
the other parties hereto as follows: (i) such assigning Purchaser warrants that it is the legal
and beneficial owner of the interest being assigned thereby free and clear of any adverse claim and
that its Commitment, and the outstanding balance of its Notes, without giving effect to
assignments thereof which have not become effective, are as set forth in such Assignment and
Acceptance; (ii) except as set forth in (i) above, such assigning Purchaser makes no representation
or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or
representations made in or in connection with this Agreement, or the execution, legality, validity,
enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement, any other Transaction Document
or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto, or the financial condition of the
Issuer or any Subsidiary or the performance or observance by the Issuer or any Subsidiary of any of
its obligations under this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any other instrument or
document furnished pursuant hereto; (iii) such assignee represents and warrants that it is legally
authorized to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee confirms that it has
received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the most recent financial statements
referred to in Section 3.05 or delivered pursuant to Section 5.04 and such other documents and
information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into
such Assignment and Acceptance; (v) such assignee will independently and without reliance upon the
Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, such assigning Purchaser or any other Purchaser and
based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make
its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (vi) such assignee
appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to take such action as
agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to the
Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, respectively, by the terms hereof, together with
such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vii) such assignee agrees that it will
perform in accordance with their terms all the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are
required to be performed by it as a Purchaser.
(d) The Issuer shall maintain at its principal executive offices in Portland, Oregon a copy of
each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and
addresses of the Purchasers, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Notes owing to,
each Purchaser pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The Issuer, the
Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Purchasers may treat each person whose name is
recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Purchaser hereunder for all purposes of
this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for
inspection by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and any Purchaser, at any reasonable
time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
(e) Upon its receipt of, and consent to, a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed
by an assigning Purchaser and an assignee, an Administrative Questionnaire completed in respect of
the assignee (unless the assignee shall already be a Purchaser hereunder), the processing and
recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) above, if applicable, and the written consent of the
Administrative Agent and, if required, the Issuer to such assignment and any applicable tax forms,
the Administrative Agent shall (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance and (ii) notify the Issuer
of such acceptance. The Issuer shall promptly record the information contained therein in the
Register. No assignment shall be effective unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided
in this paragraph (e).
(f) Each Purchaser may without the consent of the Issuer or the Administrative Agent sell
participations to one or more banks or other persons in all or a portion of its rights and
obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Notes
owing to it); provided, however, that (i) such Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement shall
remain unchanged, (ii) such Purchaser shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto
for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the participating banks or other persons shall be
entitled to the benefit of the cost protection provisions contained in Section 2.09 and 2.14 to the
same extent as if they were Purchasers (but, with respect to any particular participant, to no
greater extent than the Purchaser that sold the participation to such participant) and (iv) the
Issuer, the Administrative Agent and the Purchasers shall continue to deal solely and directly with
such Purchaser in connection with such Purchaser’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, and
such Purchaser shall retain the sole right to enforce the obligations of the Issuer relating to the
Notes and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement
(other than amendments, modifications or waivers decreasing any fees payable to such participating
bank or person hereunder or the amount of principal of or the rate at which interest is payable on
the Notes in which such participating bank or person has an interest, extending any scheduled
principal payment date or date fixed for the payment of interest on the Notes in which such
participating bank or person has an interest, increasing or extending the Commitments in which such
participating bank or person has an interest or releasing any Subsidiary Guarantor (other than in
connection with the sale of such Subsidiary Guarantor in a transaction permitted by Section 6.05)
or all or substantially all of the Collateral.
(g) Any Purchaser or participant may, in connection with any assignment or participation or
proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 10.04, disclose to the assignee or
participant or proposed assignee or participant any information relating to the Issuer furnished to
such Purchaser by or on behalf of the Issuer; provided that, prior to any such disclosure of
information designated by the Issuer as confidential, each such assignee or participant or proposed
assignee or participant shall execute an agreement whereby such assignee or participant shall agree
(subject to customary exceptions) to preserve the confidentiality of such confidential information
on terms no less restrictive than those applicable to the Purchasers pursuant to Section 10.16.
(h) Any Purchaser may at any time assign all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement
to secure extensions of credit to such Purchaser or in support of obligations owed by such
Purchaser; provided that no such assignment shall release a Purchaser from any of its obligations
hereunder or substitute any such assignee for such Purchaser as a party hereto.
(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Purchaser (a “Granting
Purchaser”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”), identified as such in
writing from time to time by the Granting Purchaser to the Administrative Agent and the Issuer, the
option to provide to the Issuer all or any part of any Note that such Granting Purchaser would
otherwise be obligated to make to the Issuer pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing
herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to purchase any Note and (ii) if an SPC elects not
to exercise such option or otherwise fails to purchase all or any part of such Note, the Granting
Purchaser shall be obligated to purchase such Note pursuant to the terms hereof. The purchasing of
a Note by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Purchaser to the same
extent, and as if, such Note were purchased by such Granting Purchaser. Each party hereto hereby
agrees that no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this
Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the
Granting Purchaser). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which
agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year
and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior
indebtedness of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting
against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation
proceedings under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. In addition, notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Section 10.04, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but
without the prior written consent of, the Issuer and the Administrative Agent and without paying
any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in the Notes to the Granting
Purchaser or to any financial institutions (consented to by the Issuer and Administrative Agent)
providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the account of such SPC to support the funding
or maintenance of Notes and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information
relating to its Notes to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety,
guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.
(j) The Issuer shall not assign or delegate any of its rights or duties hereunder without the
prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Purchaser, and any attempted assignment
without such consent shall be null and void.
SECTION 10.05. Expenses; Indemnity. (a) The Issuer agrees to pay all out-of-pocket expenses
incurred by the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent in connection with the syndication of
the Credit Facilities and the preparation and administration of this Agreement and the other
Transaction Documents or in connection with any amendments, modifications or waivers of the
provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions hereby or thereby contemplated shall
be consummated) or incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Purchaser in
connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement and
the other Transaction Documents or in connection with the Notes made hereunder, including the fees,
charges and disbursements of Milbank, Tweed, Xxxxxx & XxXxxx LLP, counsel for the Administrative
Agent and the Collateral Agent, and, in connection with any such enforcement or protection, the
fees, charges and disbursements of any other counsel for the Administrative Agent, the Collateral
Agent or any Purchaser.
(b) The Issuer agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, each
Purchaser and each Related Party of any of the foregoing persons (each such person being called an
“Indemnitee”) against, and to hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims,
damages, liabilities and related expenses, including reasonable counsel fees, charges and
disbursements, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in any way connected
with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any other Transaction
Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the performance by the parties
thereto of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions and the
other transactions contemplated thereby (including the syndication of the Credit Facilities),
(ii) the use of the proceeds of the Notes, (iii) any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding
relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not any Indemnitee is a party thereto (and regardless
of whether such matter is initiated by a third party or by the Issuer, any other Loan Party or any
of their respective Affiliates), or (iv) any actual or alleged presence or Release of Hazardous
Materials on any property currently or formerly owned or operated by the Issuer or any of the
Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Issuer or the
Subsidiaries; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to
the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted primarily from
the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.
(c) To the extent that the Issuer fails to pay any amount required to be paid by them to the
Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each
Purchaser severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as the case
may be, such Purchaser’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed
expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed
expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was
incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent in its capacity as
such. For purposes hereof, a Purchaser’s “pro rata share” shall be determined based upon its share
of the sum of the outstanding Notes and unused Commitments at the time.
(d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Issuer shall not assert, and hereby waives,
any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential
or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or
as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the
Transactions, any Note or the use of the proceeds thereof.
(e) The provisions of this Section 10.05 shall remain operative and in full force and effect
regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Notes, the expiration of the Commitments, the
invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction
Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral
Agent or any Purchaser. All amounts due under this Section 10.05 shall be payable on written
demand therefor.
SECTION 10.06. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
each Purchaser is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, except to the extent
prohibited by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand,
provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Purchaser
to or for the credit or the account of the Issuer against any of and all the obligations of the
Issuer now or hereafter existing under this Agreement and other Transaction Documents held by such
Purchaser, irrespective of whether or not such Purchaser shall have made any demand under this
Agreement or such other Transaction Document and although such obligations may be unmatured. The
rights of each Purchaser under this Section 10.06 are in addition to other rights and remedies
(including other rights of setoff) which such Purchaser may have.
SECTION 10.07. Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS (OTHER THAN
AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS) SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND
GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
SECTION 10.08. Waivers; Amendment. (a) No failure or delay of the Administrative Agent, the
Collateral Agent or any Purchaser in exercising any power or right hereunder or under any other
Transaction Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of
any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or
power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power.
The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Purchasers
hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any
rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or
any other Transaction Document or consent to any departure by the Issuer or any other Loan Party
therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b)
below, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the
purpose for which given. No notice or demand on the Issuer in any case shall entitle the Issuer to
any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.
(b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except
pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Issuer and the Required
Purchasers (or the Administrative Agent acting at the written direction of the Required
Purchasers); provided, however, that no such agreement shall (i) decrease the principal amount of,
or extend the maturity of or any scheduled principal payment date or date for the payment of any
interest on any Note, or waive or excuse any such payment or any part thereof, or decrease the rate
of interest on any Note, without the prior written consent of each Purchaser directly adversely
affected thereby (other than any waiver of any increase in the interest rate applicable to the
Notes as a result of the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default), (ii) increase or extend
the Commitment or decrease or extend the date for payment of any fees of any Purchaser without the
prior written consent of such Purchaser, (iii) amend or modify the pro rata requirements of
Section 2.11, the provisions of Section 10.04(j) or the provisions of this Section or release any
Subsidiary Guarantor (other than in connection with the sale of such Subsidiary Guarantor in a
transaction permitted by Section 6.05) or all or substantially all of the Collateral, without the
prior written consent of each Purchaser, (iv) modify the protections afforded to an SPC pursuant to
the provisions of Section 10.04(i) without the written consent of such SPC or (vi) reduce the
percentage contained in the definition of the term “Required Purchasers” without the prior written
consent of each Purchaser (it being understood that with the consent of the Required Purchasers,
additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement may be included in the determination of
the Required Purchasers on substantially the same basis as the Commitments on the date hereof);
provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or
duties of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent hereunder or under any other Transaction
Document without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent.
SECTION 10.09. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if
at any time the interest rate applicable to any Note, together with all fees, charges and other
amounts which are treated as interest on such Note under applicable law (collectively the
"Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for,
charged, taken, received or reserved by the Purchaser holding such Note in accordance with
applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Note hereunder, together with all
Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and,
to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such
Note but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section 10.09 shall be cumulated and
the interest and Charges payable to such Purchaser in respect of other periods shall be increased
(but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest
thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by
such Purchaser.
SECTION 10.10. Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents
constitute the entire contract between the parties relative to the subject matter hereof. Any
other previous agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof is superseded
by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. Nothing in this Agreement or in the other
Transaction Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any person (other than the
parties hereto and thereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereunder and, to the
extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the
Collateral Agent and the Purchasers) any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by
reason of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents.
SECTION 10.11. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT
PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION
DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE
OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS. EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR
ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD
NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT
AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER
TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS
IN THIS SECTION 10.11
SECTION 10.12. Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this
Agreement or in any other Transaction Document should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in
any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein
and therein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby (it being understood that the
invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not in and of itself affect
the validity of such provision in any other jurisdiction). The parties shall endeavor in
good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid
provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal
or unenforceable provisions.
SECTION 10.13. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different
parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original but all of
which when taken together shall constitute a single contract, and shall become effective as
provided in Section 10.03. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Agreement by facsimile
transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Agreement.
SECTION 10.14. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein
are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and are not to affect the
construction of, or to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.
SECTION 10.15. Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) The Issuer hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction
of any New York State court or Federal court of the United States of America sitting in New York
City, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or
relating to this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, or for recognition or enforcement of
any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all
claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York
State or, to the extent permitted by 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 Agreement shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any
Purchaser may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the
other Transaction Documents against the Issuer, or their respective properties in the courts of any
jurisdiction.
(b) The Issuer hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may
legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of
venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other
Transaction Documents in any New York State or Federal court. Each of the parties hereto hereby
irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to
the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.
(c) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner
provided for notices in Section 10.01. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any
party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.
SECTION 10.16. Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and
the Purchasers agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except
that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ officers, directors, employees and
agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (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 or quasi-regulatory authority (such as the National Association of
Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any
subpoena or similar legal process, (d) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or
under the other Transaction Documents or any suit, action or proceeding relating to the enforcement
of its rights hereunder or thereunder, (e) subject to an agreement containing provisions
substantially the same as those of this Section 10.16, to (i) any actual or prospective assignee of
or participant in any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement and the other Transaction
Documents or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or
derivative transaction relating to the Issuer or any Subsidiary or any of their respective
obligations, (f) with the consent of the Issuer or (g) to the extent such Information becomes
publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.16.
For the purposes of this Section, “Information” shall mean all information received from the
Issuer or any Subsidiary and related to the Issuer or any Subsidiary or their business, other than
any such information that was available to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any
Purchaser on a nonconfidential basis prior to its disclosure by the Issuer or any Subsidiary;
provided that, in the case of Information received from the Issuer or any Subsidiary 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 10.16 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 its
own confidential information.
SECTION 10.17. USA PATRIOT Act Notice. Each Purchaser and the Administrative Agent (for
itself and not on behalf of any Purchaser) hereby notifies the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors
that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and
record information that identifies the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors, which information
includes the name and address of the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors and other information
that will allow such Purchaser or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Issuer
and the Subsidiary Guarantors in accordance with the USA PATRIOT Act.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed by their
respective authorized officers as of the day and year first above written.
