WHEREAS, certain Borrowers, Collateral Agent and the Lenders are currently the parties to the Original Loan Agreement.

WHEREAS, Borrowers, Collateral Agent and the Lenders desire to amend and restate the Original Loan Agreement and extend a revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Facility") of up to ONE HUNDRED FIFTY MILLION AND 00/100 DOLLARS ($150,000,000.00), in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof which shall be used for the refinancing of the Borrowers' existing indebtedness incurred in the purchase or generation of receivables and thereafter for the purchase or generation of receivables for payments to Lender hereunder and for general corporate purposes; and

WHEREAS, to secure Borrowers' obligations under the Loan Documents, Borrowers have granted to Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and Lenders, a first priority (subject to Permitted Encumbrances and Liens permitted by subsection 7.3) security interest in and lien upon substantially all of Borrowers' personal property.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the agreements, provisions and covenants herein contained, Borrowers, Collateral Agent and Lenders agree as follows:

SECTION 1. DEFINITIONS AND ACCOUNTING TERMS

1.1 Certain Defined Terms. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement and the accounting terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in Section 11 of this Agreement.

1.2 Interpretation.

(A) The definitions in this Agreement shall apply equally to both the singular and plural forms of the terms defined. Whenever the context may require, any pronoun shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms. All references herein to Articles, Sections, Exhibits and Schedules shall be deemed references to Articles and Sections of, and Exhibits and Schedules to, this Agreement unless the context shall otherwise require.

(B) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all terms of an accounting or financial nature shall be construed in accordance with GAAP, as in effect from time to time.

SECTION 2. LOANS AND COLLATERAL

2.1 Revolving Credit Facility.

(A) Revolving Loan.

(1) Each Lender, severally, but not jointly, agrees to lend to Borrowers from time to time such Lender's Pro Rata Share of each advance under the Revolving Loan Commitment. The aggregate amount of the Revolving Loan Commitment shall not exceed at any time the Facility Cap. The "Facility Cap" shall initially be One Hundred Million Dollars ($100,000,000). Provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, upon written request by the Borrowers, Lenders shall increase the Facility Cap, in up to five (5) increments of Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) each (as requested by Borrowers) to a maximum Facility Cap of One Hundred Fifty Million Dollars ($150,000,000). Subject to subsection 2.1(A)(2), amounts borrowed under this Agreement may be borrowed, repaid and reborrowed at any time prior to the Termination Date.

(2) (i) Subject to Lenders' right to terminate and cease making Advances if any Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect until the full performance and indefeasible payment in cash of all Obligations, unless terminated sooner as provided in this subsection 2.1(A)(2). Borrowers may terminate this Agreement at any time upon not less than thirty (30) calendar days (nor more than sixty (60) calendar days) prior written notice to Collateral Agent and upon full performance and indefeasible payment in full in cash of all Obligations on or prior to the outside calendar day after such written notice is deemed to have been delivered to Collateral Agent. All of the Obligations shall be immediately due and payable upon any such termination on the termination date stated in any notice of termination, as it may be modified from time to time by a subsequent written notice (the "Early Termination Date"). Notwithstanding any other provision of any Loan Document, no termination of this Agreement shall affect Lenders' rights or any of the Obligations existing as of the effective date of such termination, and the provisions of the Loan Documents shall continue to be fully operative until the Obligations have been fully performed and indefeasibly paid in cash in full. The Liens granted to Lenders under the Loan Documents and the financing statements filed pursuant thereto and the rights and powers of Lender shall

continue in full force and effect notwithstanding the fact that Borrowers' borrowings hereunder may from time to time be in a zero or credit position until all of the Obligations have been fully performed and indefeasibly paid in full in cash. Borrowers may permanently reduce the Facility Cap, in part, to an amount designated by Borrowers, at any time upon not less than thirty (30) calendar days (nor more than sixty (60) calendar days) prior written notice to Collateral Agent and upon indefeasible payment in cash of amounts sufficient to reduce the outstanding amount to the reduced Facility Cap on or prior to the outside calendar day after such written notice is deemed to have been delivered to Collateral Agent.

(ii) If (a) Borrowers terminate the Revolving Facility in whole under this subsection 2.1(A)(2); (b) Borrowers voluntarily or involuntarily repay the Obligations in whole (other than reductions to zero of the outstanding balance of the Revolving Facility resulting from the ordinary course operation of the provisions of subsection 2.4), whether by virtue of Lenders' exercising their right of set off or otherwise; or (c) the Obligations are accelerated in whole by Lenders (each of the events described in (a), (b) and (c) above being hereinafter referred to as, a "Revolver Termination"), then at the effective date of any such Revolver Termination, Borrowers shall pay Lenders (in addition to the then outstanding principal, accrued interest and other Obligations relating to the Revolving Facility pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and any other Loan Document), to compensate Lenders for the loss of bargain and not as a penalty, an amount equal to One Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,500,000) if the Revolver Termination occurs on or prior to June 1, 2007, less any Partial Revolver Termination fees paid prior thereto, and an amount equal to Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($750,000) if the Revolver Termination occurs after June 1, 2007 but prior to September 1, 2008, less any Partial Revolver Termination fees paid prior thereto. If (a) Borrowers terminate the Revolving Facility in part under this subsection 2.1(A)(2) (a "Partial Revolver Termination"), then at the effective date of any such Partial Revolver Termination, Borrowers shall pay Lenders (in addition to the then outstanding principal, accrued interest and other Obligations relating to the Revolving Facility pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and any other Loan Document), to compensate Lenders for the loss of bargain and not as a penalty, an amount equal to the product of One Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,500,000) multiplied by a fraction with a numerator equal to the amount of the reduction of the Commitment and the denominator equal to the then effective Facility Cap if the Partial Revolver Termination occurs on or prior to June 1, 2007 (but in no event shall the aggregate amount of termination fees for a Partial Revolver Termination exceed an amount equal to the product of Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($750,000) multiplied by a fraction with a numerator equal to the amount of the reduction of the Commitment and the denominator equal to the then effective Facility Cap if the Partial Revolver Termination occurs after June 1, 2007 but prior to September 1, 2008; provided, however, that in no event may the aggregate amount of Partial Revolver Termination fees exceed $1,500,000.

(3) Each of the Borrowers, jointly and severally, will be obligated in respect of the aggregate principal amount of all Loans, and the aggregate amount of credit available hereunder to any of the Borrowers at any time shall be determined taking into account all Loans outstanding and all outstanding Letters of Credit, regardless of which of the Borrowers may have received the proceeds of the Loans or the benefit of any of the Letters of Credit. By executing this Agreement, each of the Borrowers confirms to the other parties to this Agreement that the Company shall (and has been duly appointed by each of the Borrowers to) act as agent

for the Borrowers for all purposes of the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, (i) requesting Loans, (ii) requesting the issuance of Letters of Credit, (iii) allocating (to the extent permitted herein) the proceeds of Loans, and (iv) taking any other action or receiving any communication on behalf of such Borrower in connection with the Loan Documents. Each of the Lenders and the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to deal with any Borrower through the Company and to rely on any instructions or other communications from the Company on behalf of any Borrower. None of the Lenders or Collateral Agent shall have any responsibility to any Borrower for dealing with the Borrowers as provided in this subsection 2.1(A)(3), and the Obligations of each of the Borrowers to the Lenders shall not be affected by any matter relating to acts or omissions of the Company relating to the Loans, requests for Letters of Credit or otherwise as agent for the Borrowers hereunder. Notwithstanding the appointment of Company as agent for the Borrowers hereunder, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders shall in their sole discretion be entitled to deal directly with any Borrower for all purposes of the Loan Documents.

(B) Borrowing Base. Except as otherwise provided herein, no Lender shall have any obligation to make a Revolving Advance to the extent such Revolving Advance would cause the Revolving Loans (after giving effect to any immediate application of the proceeds of such Revolving Advance) to exceed the Maximum Revolving Loan Amount.

"Maximum Revolving Loan Amount" means, as of any date of determination, the lesser of (a) the Revolving Loan Commitments of all Lenders less the Letter of Credit Reserve and (b) the Borrowing Base (plus the Maximum Overadvance Availability) less the Letter of Credit Reserve.

"Borrowing Base" shall mean, as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (a) eighty-five percent (85%) of the U.S. Dollar value of Eligible Receivables plus (b) eighty-five percent (85%) of the U.S. Dollar value of Eligible Divested Company Receivables, as determined with reference to the most recent Borrowing Base Certificate and otherwise in accordance with the Agreement; provided, however, that if the period covered by the most recent Borrowing Base Certificate ends on a date that is earlier than forty-five (45) days before such date of determination, the Borrowing Base shall be determined by Collateral Agent in its sole discretion; less such reserves as Collateral Agent, in its Permitted Discretion, may deem appropriate from time to time, including, without limitation, reserves with respect to all recoupments and overpayments whether or not disclosed pursuant to subsection 4.23. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, Borrower may request additional Advances under the Revolving Facility, in addition to the Borrowing Base, up to the Maximum Overadvance Availability (as defined below), subject to the terms and conditions of the Revolving Facility, and subject at all times to the Facility Cap (the "Overadvance Facility"); except that Lenders shall not honor requests for Advances under the Overadvance Facility if any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would be caused thereby. The "Maximum Overadvance Availability" shall be an amount up to, as of any date of determination (a) fifteen percent (15%) of the U.S. Dollar value of Eligible Receivables plus (b) fifteen percent (15%) of the U.S. Dollar value of Eligible Divested Company Receivables, as determined with reference to the most recent Borrowing Base Certificate and otherwise in accordance with the Agreement; provided, however, that if the period covered by the most recent Borrowing Base Certificate ends on a date that is earlier than the date that is forty-five (45) days before such date of determination, the Borrowing Base shall be determined by Collateral Agent in its sole discretion;

less such reserves as Collateral Agent, in its Permitted Discretion, may deem appropriate from time to time, including, without limitation, reserves with respect to all recoupments and overpayments whether or not disclosed pursuant to subsection 4.23. Except as expressly modified by the terms hereof, amounts drawn under the Overadvance Facility will be treated for all purposes as an Advance under the Revolving Loan, and all principal, interest, fees and other costs and expenses relating to any such amounts drawn shall be treated as additional Obligations under the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents and secured by all Collateral. In no event shall the amount of all Advances outstanding at any one time under the Revolving Loan, including those made under the Overadvance Facility, exceed the Facility Cap. Current reserves to the Borrowing Base (and the Maximum Overadvance Facility) are described on Schedule 2.1(A).

"Eligible Receivables" shall mean each Account arising in the ordinary course of Borrowers' business from the sale of goods or rendering of Services which Collateral Agent, in its Permitted Discretion, deems an Eligible Receivable unless:

(a) it is not subject to a valid perfected first priority security interest in favor of Lenders (and is subject to no other Lien other than Permitted Encumbrances which have been subordinated to the Liens granted hereunder pursuant to subordination agreements satisfactory to the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion);

(b) it is not evidenced by an invoice, statement or other electronic or documentary evidence satisfactory to Collateral Agent; provided, that Collateral Agent in its sole discretion may from time to time include as Accounts that are not evidenced by an invoice, statement or other documentary evidence satisfactory to Collateral Agent as Eligible Receivables and determine the advance rate, liquidity factors and reserves applicable to Advances made on any such Accounts;

(c) it or any portion thereof (in which case only such portion shall not be an Eligible Receivable) is payable by a beneficiary, recipient or subscriber individually and not directly by a Medicaid/Medicare Account Debtor, managed care organization, or commercial medical insurance carrier acceptable to Collateral Agent;

(d) it arises out of services rendered or a sale made to, or out of any other transaction between any Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries and, one or more Affiliates of any Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries;

(e) it remains unpaid for longer than one hundred fifty (150) calendar days after the first to occur of the claim date or invoice date, if the Services were rendered exclusively by Borrowers' inpatient long-term care business or for all other Accounts, it remains unpaid for longer than one hundred twenty (120) calendar days after the first to occur of the claim date or invoice date;

(f) with respect to all Accounts owed by any particular Account Debtor and/or its Affiliates (other than Medicaid/Medicare Account Debtors), if more than twenty percent (20%) of the aggregate balance of all such Accounts owing from such Account Debtor and/or its

Affiliates remain unpaid for longer than the earlier of (i) 120 calendar days after the first to occur of the claim date or invoice date, and (ii) 135 calendar days after the applicable Services were rendered;

(g) with respect to all Accounts owed by any particular Account Debtor and/or its Affiliates other than Medicaid/Medicare Account Debtors, 25% or more of all such Accounts are not deemed Eligible Receivables for any reason hereunder (which percentage may, in Collateral Agent's Permitted Discretion, be increased or decreased (but as among the Lenders it is agreed that Collateral Agent shall not increase such percentage without the prior written consent of the Requisite Lenders));

(h) with respect to all Accounts owed by any particular Account Debtor and/or its Affiliates (except Medicaid/Medicare Account Debtors), if such Accounts exceed 20% of the net collectible dollar value of all Eligible Receivables at any one time (including Accounts from Medicaid/Medicare Account Debtors) (which percentage may, in Collateral Agent's Permitted Discretion, be increased or decreased (but as among the Lenders it is agreed that Collateral Agent shall not decrease such percentage without the prior written consent of the Requisite Lenders));

(o) there is any agreement with an Account Debtor for any deduction from such Account, except for discounts or allowances made in the ordinary course of business for prompt payment, all of which discounts or allowances are reflected in the calculation of the face value of each invoice related thereto, such that only the discounted amount of such Account after giving effect to such discounts and allowances shall be considered an Eligible Receivable;

(D) Borrowing Mechanics. LIBOR Loans made on any Funding Date shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess of such amount. Borrower shall not have more than seven (7) LIBOR Loans in effect at any given time. On any day when any Borrower desires a Revolving Advance under this subsection 2.1, such Borrower shall give Collateral Agent written or telephonic notice of the proposed borrowing by 12:00 p.m. (noon) New York time one (1) Business Day in advance of the Funding Date of a Base Rate Loan and two (2) Business Days in advance of the funding of a LIBOR Loan, which notice shall specify the proposed Funding Date (which shall be a Business Day), whether such Loans shall consist of Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Loans, and for LIBOR Loans, the Interest Period applicable thereto and the estimated amount of the borrowing. Any such notice shall be confirmed with a Notice of Borrowing by 12:00 p.m. (noon) New York time on the proposed Funding Date which shall include the exact requested amount of funding. If the requested amount is greater than the estimated amount, Lenders shall not be obligated to advance the excess. If less than the estimated amount is requested and such discrepancy is $1,000,000 or less, Lenders, at election of Collateral Agent, may charge a fee equal to one days' interest on the amount not funded at one-half of the rate charged on the balance of such funding (plus one-half of the Collateral Management Fees); if less than the estimated amount is requested and such discrepancy exceeds $1,000,000, Lenders, at election of Collateral Agent, may charge a fee equal to one days' interest on the amount not funded at the rate charged on the balance of such funding. Neither Collateral Agent nor any Lender shall incur any liability to any Borrower for acting upon any telephonic notice or a Notice of Borrowing that Collateral Agent believes in good faith to have been given by a duly authorized officer or other person authorized to borrow on behalf of such Borrower or for otherwise acting in good faith under this subsection 2.1(D). Neither Collateral Agent nor any Lender will be required to make any advance pursuant to any telephonic or written notice or a Notice of Borrowing, unless all of the terms and conditions set forth in Section 3 (including the Conditions Rider, attached hereto and made a part hereof,) have been satisfied and Collateral Agent has also received the most recent Borrowing Base Certificate and other documents required under Section 5 and the Reporting Rider, attached hereto and made a part hereof, by 12:00 p.m. (noon) New York time on or prior to the date of such funding request. Each Advance shall be deposited by wire transfer in immediately available funds in such account as such Borrower may from time to time designate to Collateral Agent in writing. The becoming due of any amount required to be paid under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents as principal, Letter of Credit reimbursement obligation, accrued interest, fees, compensation or any other amounts shall be deemed irrevocably to be an automatic request by Borrowers for a Revolving Advance, which shall be a Base Rate Loan on the due date of, and in the amount required to pay (as set forth on Collateral Agent's books and records), such principal, Letter of Credit reimbursement obligation, accrued interest, fees, compensation or any other amounts unless such amount shall have been paid by Borrowers on or prior to the date thereof and Collateral Agent shall be and hereby is authorized to charge all such amounts as Revolving Advances to Borrowers' account (as set forth on Collateral Agent's books and records).

(E) Payments with Respect to the Settlement Agreement. If an Event of Default exists and during such time a default under the Settlement Agreement shall exist and be continuing, thereafter Lenders shall have the right, but not the obligation, exercisable in their

sole and absolute discretion, to make Revolving Advances at the time and in the amounts of the payments Borrowers are obligated to make under the Settlement Agreement, and to deliver the proceeds of any such Revolving Advance directly to the payees under the Settlement Agreement. Any Revolving Advances made by Lenders under this subsection 2.1(E) shall be treated for all purposes as a Revolving Advance under this Agreement. Lenders' rights under this subsection 2.1(E) are in addition to, and do not affect or limit, any of the other rights of Lenders or the obligations of Borrowers under this Agreement.

(F) Evidence of Loans.

(a) Collateral Agent shall maintain, in accordance with its usual practice, electronic or written records evidencing the indebtedness and obligations to each Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender from time to time, including without limitation, the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement.

(b) The entries made in the electronic or written records maintained pursuant to this subsection (F) maintained by Collateral Agent shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations and indebtedness therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender to maintain such records or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligations of the Borrowers to repay the Loans or Obligations in accordance with their terms.

(c) Collateral Agent will account to Borrowers monthly with a statement of Advances under the Revolving Facility, and any charges and payments made pursuant to this Agreement, and in the absence of manifest error, such accounting rendered by Collateral Agent shall be deemed final, binding and conclusive unless Collateral Agent is notified by Company in writing to the contrary within fifteen (15) calendar days of receipt of the applicable accounting, which notice shall be deemed an objection only to items specifically objected to therein.

(d) The Borrowers agree that:

(i) upon written notice by a Lender to the Borrowers that a promissory note (a "Note") or other evidence of indebtedness is requested by such Lender to evidence the Loans and other Obligations owing or payable to, or to be made by, such Lender, the Borrowers shall promptly (and in any event within three (3) Business Days of any such request) execute and deliver to such Lender an appropriate promissory note or notes in form and substance reasonably acceptable to such Lender and Borrowers, payable to the order of such Lender in a principal amount equal to the amount of the Loans owing or payable to such Lender;

(ii) all references to Notes in the Loan Documents shall mean Notes, if any, to the extent issued (and not returned to the Borrowers for cancellation) hereunder, as the same may be amended, modified, divided, supplemented and/or restated from time to time; and

(iii) upon a Lender's written request, and in any event within three (3) Business Days of any such request, Borrowers shall execute and deliver to such Lender new notes and/or divide the notes in exchange for then existing notes in such smaller amounts or denominations as such Lender shall specify in its sole and absolute discretion; provided, that the

aggregate principal amount of such new Notes shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount of the Notes outstanding at the time such request is made; and provided, further, that such notes that are to be replaced shall then be deemed no longer outstanding hereunder and replaced by such new notes and returned to the Borrowers within a reasonable period of time after such Lender's receipt of the replacement notes.

(G) Letters of Credit.

(1) Each of the letters of credit set forth on Schedule 2.1(G) (each, an "Existing L/C") has been issued under the Original Loan Agreement and shall continue to constitute Letters of Credit hereunder, subject to each of the terms and conditions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document. Each Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally acquired from the Issuing Lender a participation in each such Existing L/C, in each case in accordance with subsection 2.1(G)(2), including, without limitation, the right to be secured by and entitled to the benefits of the Collateral. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Issuing Lender agrees to issue letters of credit for the account of Borrowers (each, an "L/C") or to purchase participations or execute indemnities or reimbursement obligations (each such undertaking, an "L/C Undertaking") with respect to letters of credit issued by an Underlying Issuer for the account of Borrowers. To request the issuance of an L/C or an L/C Undertaking (or the amendment, renewal, or extension of an outstanding L/C or L/C Undertaking), the Company shall deliver by courier or telecopy (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the Issuing Lender) to the Issuing Lender and Collateral Agent (reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal, or extension) a notice requesting the issuance of an L/C or L/C Undertaking, or identifying the L/C or L/C Undertaking to be amended, renewed, or extended, the date of issuance, amendment, renewal, or extension, the date on which such L/C or L/C Undertaking is to expire, the amount of such L/C or L/C Undertaking, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof (or of the Underlying Letter of Credit, as applicable), and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew, or extend such L/C or L/C Undertaking. If requested by the Issuing Lender, the applicable Borrower also shall be an applicant under the application with respect to any Underlying Letter of Credit that is to be the subject of an L/C Undertaking. The Issuing Lender shall have no obligation to issue a Letter of Credit if any of the following would result after giving effect to the requested Letter of Credit.

(a) the Letter of Credit Liability would exceed the Borrowing Base (plus the Maximum Overadvance Availability) less the then extant amount of outstanding Advances, or

(b) the Letter of Credit Liability would exceed $35,000,000.

No Issuing Lender shall issue, extend or amend a Letter of Credit without the prior written consent of Collateral Agent, which Borrowers acknowledge Collateral Agent may withhold in its sole discretion if Collateral Agent determines that any of these conditions (a) through (b) may not be satisfied or any other conditions to Advances may not be satisfied.

Borrowers, Collateral Agent, and the Lenders acknowledge and agree that certain Underlying Letters of Credit may be issued to support letters of credit that already are outstanding as of the Closing Date. Each Letter of Credit shall be in form and substance acceptable to the Issuing

Lender (in the exercise of its good-faith discretion) and Collateral Agent, including the requirement that the amounts payable thereunder must be payable in Dollars. If Issuing Lender is obligated to advance funds under a Letter of Credit, Borrowers shall reimburse such L/C Disbursement to Issuing Lender by paying to Collateral Agent an amount equal to such L/C Disbursement not later than 2:00 p.m., New York time, on the date that such L/C Disbursement is made, if Company shall have received written or telephonic notice of such L/C Disbursement prior to 1:00 p.m., New York time, on such date, or, if such notice has not been received by Company prior to such time on such date, then not later than 2:00 p.m., New York time, on the Business Day following the date on which the Company receives such notice, and, in the absence of such reimbursement, the L/C Disbursement immediately and automatically shall be deemed to be an Advance hereunder and, thereafter, shall bear interest at the rate then applicable to Advances that are Base Rate Loans under subsection 2.2(A)(1)(a). To the extent an L/C Disbursement is deemed to be an Advance hereunder, Borrowers' obligation to reimburse such L/C Disbursement shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Advance. Promptly following receipt by Collateral Agent of any payment from Borrowers pursuant to this paragraph, Collateral Agent shall distribute such payment to the Issuing Lender or, to the extent that Lenders have made payments pursuant to subsection 2.1(G)(3) to reimburse the Issuing Lender, then to such Lenders and the Issuing Lender as their interest may appear.

(2) Promptly following receipt of a notice of L/C Disbursement pursuant to subsection 2.1(G)(1), each Lender agrees to fund its Pro Rata Share of any Advance deemed made pursuant to the foregoing subsection on the same terms and conditions as if Borrowers had requested such Advance and Collateral Agent shall promptly pay to Issuing Lender the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Lender or the Lenders, the Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have granted to each Lender, and each Lender shall be deemed to have purchased, a participation in each Letter of Credit, in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of such Letter of Credit Liability, and each Lender agrees to pay to Collateral Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, such Lender's Pro Rata Share of any payments made by the Issuing Lender under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to Collateral Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, such Lender's Pro Rata Share of each L/C Disbursement made by the Issuing Lender and not reimbursed by Borrowers on the date due as provided in subsection 2.1(G)(1), or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to Borrowers for any reason. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to deliver to Collateral Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, an amount equal to its respective Pro Rata Share of each L/C Disbursement made by the Issuing Lender pursuant to this subsection 2.1(G) shall be absolute and unconditional and such remittance shall be made notwithstanding the occurrence or continuation of an Event of Default or Default or the failure to satisfy any condition set forth in Section 3 hereof. If any such Lender fails to make available to Collateral Agent the amount of such Lender's Pro Rata Share of each L/C Disbursement made by the Issuing Lender as provided in this Section, such Lender shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender and Collateral Agent (for the account of the Issuing Lender) shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon at the Base Rate until paid in full.

(3) Each Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify, save, defend, and hold Collateral Agent and the Lenders harmless from any loss, cost, expense, or liability, and reasonable attorneys fees and costs incurred by the Lenders arising out of or in connection with any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that no Borrower shall be obligated hereunder to indemnify for any loss, cost, expense, or liability to the extent that it is caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Lender, Collateral Agent, or any other member of the Lenders. Each Borrower agrees to be bound, absent manifest error, by the Underlying Issuer's regulations and interpretations of any Underlying Letter of Credit or by Issuing Lender's interpretations of any L/C issued by Issuing Lender to or for such Borrower's account, even though this interpretation may be different from such Borrower's own, and each Borrower understands and agrees that Collateral Agent and the Lenders shall not be liable for any error, negligence, or mistake, whether of omission or commission, in following Borrowers' instructions or those contained in the Letter of Credit or any modifications, amendments, or supplements thereto, other than Collateral Agent's and Lenders' gross negligence and willful misconduct. Each Borrower understands that the L/C Undertakings may require Issuing Lender to indemnify the Underlying Issuer for certain costs or liabilities arising out of claims by Borrowers against such Underlying Issuer. Each Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify, save, defend, and hold the Lenders harmless with respect to any loss, cost, expense (including reasonable attorneys fees and costs), or liability incurred by the Lenders under any L/C Undertaking as a result of the Lenders' indemnification of any Underlying Issuer; provided, however, that no Borrower shall be obligated hereunder to indemnify for any loss, cost, expense, or liability to the extent that it is caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Underlying Issuer, Issuing Lender or any other member of the Lenders.

(4) Each Borrower hereby authorizes and directs any Underlying Issuer to deliver to the Issuing Lender all instruments, documents, and other writings and property received by such Underlying Issuer pursuant to such Underlying Letter of Credit and to accept and rely upon the Issuing Lender's instructions with respect to all matters arising in connection with such Underlying Letter of Credit and the related application.

(5) Any and all usual and customary usage charges by the Underlying Issuer for the Letter of Credit (the "Usage Fee") together with any fees, and costs incurred or charged by the Underlying Issuer relating to the issuance of Underlying Letters of Credit shall be reimbursable by Borrowers to Collateral Agent for the account of the Underlying Issuer. In addition, any charges, commissions, fees and costs incurred by the Underlying Issuer for amendments, extensions, drawings, and renewals shall be reimbursable by Borrowers to Collateral Agent for the account of Underlying Issuer.

(6) If by reason of (i) any change after the Closing Date in any applicable law, treaty, rule, or regulation or any change in the interpretation or application thereof by any Governmental Authority, or (ii) compliance by the Underlying Issuer, the Lenders or Collateral Agent with any direction, request, or requirement (irrespective of whether having the force of law) of any Governmental Authority or monetary authority including, Regulation D of the Federal Reserve Board as from time to time in effect (and any successor thereto):

(a) any reserve, deposit, or similar requirement is or shall be imposed or modified in respect of any Letter of Credit issued hereunder, or

(b) there shall be imposed on the Underlying Issuer, the Lenders or the Collateral Agent any other condition regarding any Underlying Letter of Credit or any Letter of Credit issued pursuant hereto;

and the result of the foregoing is to increase, directly or indirectly, the cost to the Lenders of issuing, making, guaranteeing, or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount receivable in respect thereof by the Lenders, then, and in any such case, Collateral Agent may, at any time within a reasonable period after the additional cost is incurred or the amount received is reduced, notify Company, and Borrowers shall pay on demand such amounts as Collateral Agent may specify to be necessary to compensate the Lenders for such additional cost or reduced receipt, together with interest on such amount from the date of such demand until payment in full thereof at the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans hereunder (or Prime Rate Loans, if applicable). The determination by Collateral Agent of any amount due pursuant to this Section, as set forth in a certificate setting forth the calculation thereof in reasonable detail, shall, in the absence of manifest or demonstrable error, be final and conclusive and binding on all of the parties hereto.

(7) Revenue Bond Letter of Credit. With respect to a Revenue Bond Letter of Credit or any L/C issued in replacement thereof or supplement thereto, in the event a draw is made under such L/C as a result of a tendering of the bonds described therein, which is not reimbursed by Borrowers and the amount of such draw is then, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, deemed an Advance ("Bond Tender Advance"), Borrowers agree that any remarketing or similar proceeds received by any Borrower with respect to any remarketed bonds ("Remarketing Proceeds") shall immediately be remitted to Collateral Agent for application to the Bond Tender Advance or as may otherwise be required by the terms of this Agreement. The aggregate amount of any Remarketing Proceeds or other amounts received by Collateral Agent and applied to the Bond Tender Advance shall thereafter become a reserve against the Borrowing Base in such amount as the Collateral Agent deems appropriate in its Permitted Discretion (but not exceeding the amount of the Bond Tender Advance), which reserve shall remain in effect until the earlier to occur of reinstatement of the Revenue Bond Letter of Credit in connection with a remarketing of the bonds or termination or cancellation of such Revenue Bond Letter of Credit in whole or in part (to the extent so terminated or cancelled).

(8) Nature of Lender's Duties. As between any Issuing Lender, on the one hand, and all Lenders on the other hand, all Lenders assume all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, neither Collateral Agent nor any Issuing Lender shall be responsible: (a) for the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of any Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (b) for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (c) for failure of the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit to comply fully with conditions required in order to demand payment thereunder; provided that, in the case of any payment under any such Letter of Credit, any Issuing Lender has not acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in determining that the demand for payment under any such Letter of

Credit complies on its face with any applicable requirements for a demand for payment thereunder; (d) for errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (e) for errors in interpretation of technical terms; (f) for any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a payment under any such Letter of Credit; (g) for the credit of the proceeds of any drawing under any such Letter of Credit; and (h) for any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of Collateral Agent or any Lender as the case may be.

(9) Liability. In furtherance and not in limitation of the specific provisions hereinabove set forth, any action taken or omitted by either Collateral Agent or any Issuing Lender under or in connection with any Letter of Credit, if taken or omitted in good faith (and not as a result of gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Collateral Agent or such Lender), shall not put Collateral Agent or any Lender under any resulting liability to Borrowers or any other Lender.

(10) Replacement. Each of the Borrowers acknowledges and agrees that currently outstanding Letters of Credit were issued or caused to be issued by Xxxxx Fargo Foothill, Inc. It is the intent of Lenders and Borrowers that on or before February 1, 2006 all such Letters of Credit and any additional Letters of Credit or renewals issued by Xxxxx Fargo Foothill, Inc. (collectively, the "Existing Letters of Credit") shall be replaced. In the event that such Existing Letters of Credit remain outstanding as of such date, Borrowers shall deposit with Xxxxx Fargo Foothill, Inc. for the benefit of Xxxxx Fargo Foothill, Inc. cash or a back-to-back letter of credit satisfactory to Xxxxx Fargo Foothill, Inc. in an amount equal to one hundred and five percent (105%) of the aggregate outstanding undrawn amount under such Existing Letters of Credit to be available to Xxxxx Fargo Foothill, Inc. to reimburse payments of drafts drawn under such Existing Letters of Credit and pay any fees and expenses related thereto. Upon the earlier of (A) the date that an original Existing Letter of Credit is returned to Xxxxx Fargo Foothill, Inc., together with written confirmation from the beneficiary that such Existing Letters of Credit have been cancelled and it will not draw on such Existing Letters of Credit, and (B) the date that is fifteen (15) days after the date when such Existing Letters of Credit have expired, Xxxxx Fargo Foothill, Inc. shall return any cash collateral or back-to-back letter of credit related to such returned or expired Existing Letters of Credit to Borrowers (without any obligation to return any back-to-back letter of credit relating to Existing Letters of Credit that have not expired or been so returned) less amounts paid in connection with any draw on such Existing Letters of Credit and fees and expenses of Xxxxx Fargo Foothill, Inc. in connection with such Existing Letters of Credit. Each of the Borrowers and the Collateral Agent acknowledge and agree that Xxxxx Fargo Foothill, Inc. is a Lender hereunder having obligations only for purposes of being an Issuing Lender in regards to Letters of Credit and has no Commitment hereunder.

(H) [Omitted.]

(I) Availability of a Lender's Pro Rata Share

(1) Lender's Amounts Available on a Funding Date. Unless Collateral Agent receives written notice from a Lender on or prior to any Funding Date that such Lender will not make available to Collateral Agent as and when required such Lender's Pro Rata

Share of any requested Loan or Advance, Collateral Agent may assume that each Lender will make such amount available to Collateral Agent in immediately available funds on the Funding Date and Collateral Agent shall, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the requesting Borrower(s) on such date a corresponding amount.

(2) Lender's Failure to Fund. A Defaulting Lender shall pay interest to Collateral Agent at the Base Rate on the Defaulted Amount from the Business Day following the applicable Funding Date of such Defaulted Amount until the date such Defaulted Amount is paid to Collateral Agent. A notice of Collateral Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to amounts owing under this subsection shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. If such amount is not paid when due to Collateral Agent, Collateral Agent, at its option, may notify Borrowers of such failure to fund and, in the event that Collateral Agent shall have funded such Defaulted Amount on behalf of such Defaulting Lender, upon demand by Collateral Agent, Borrowers shall pay such Lender's unpaid amount to Collateral Agent for Collateral Agent's account, together with interest thereon for each day elapsed since the date of such borrowing, at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable at the time to the Loan made by the other Lenders on such Funding Date. The failure of any Lender to make available any portion of its Commitment on any Funding Date or to fund its participation in a Letter of Credit shall not relieve any other Lender of any obligation hereunder to fund such Lender's Commitment on such Funding Date or to fund any such participation, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to honor its Commitment on any Funding Date or to fund any participation to be funded by any other Lender.

(3) Payments to a Defaulting Lender. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to transfer to a Defaulting Lender any payment made by Borrowers to Collateral Agent or any amount otherwise received by Collateral Agent for application to the Obligations nor shall a Defaulting Lender be entitled to the sharing of any interest, fees or payments hereunder.

(4) Defaulting Lender's Right to Vote. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents for purposes of voting or consenting to matters with respect to (a) the Loan Documents or (b) any other matter concerning the Loans, a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not to be a "Lender" and such Lender's Commitments and outstanding Loans and Advances shall be deemed to be zero.

2.2 Interest.

(A) Rate of Interest. From the date the Loans are made and the date the other Obligations become due, the Loans and the other Obligations shall bear interest at the applicable rates set forth below (collectively, the "Interest Rate"):

(1) The Revolving Loan and all other Obligations for which no other interest rate is specified shall bear interest as follows:

(a) If a Base Rate Loan, then at the greater of (i) the sum of the Base Rate plus the LIBOR Margin applicable to Revolving Loans and (ii) the sum of four and thirty-one hundreths percent (4.31%) and the then applicable LIBOR Margin.

(b) If a LIBOR Loan, then at the greater of (i) the sum of LIBOR plus the LIBOR Margin applicable to Revolving Loans and (ii) the sum of four and thirty-one hundreths percent (4.31%) and the then applicable LIBOR Margin.

Subject to the provisions of subsection 2.1(D), Borrowers shall designate to Collateral Agent whether a Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan or LIBOR Loan at the time a Notice of Borrowing is given pursuant to subsection 2.1(D). Such designation by Borrowers may be changed from time to time pursuant to subsection 2.2(D). If on any day a Loan or a portion of any Loan is outstanding with respect to which notice has not been delivered to Collateral Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement specifying the basis for determining the rate of interest, then for that day that Loan or portion thereof shall bear interest determined by reference to the Base Rate.

After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (1) the Loans and all other Obligations shall, at the election of Collateral Agent or Requisite Lenders, bear interest at a rate per annum equal to three percent (3%) plus the applicable Interest Rate (the "Default Rate"), (2) each LIBOR Loan shall automatically convert to a Base Rate Loan at the end of any applicable Interest Period and (3) no Loans may be converted to LIBOR Loans.

(B) Computation and Payment of Interest. Interest on the Loans and all other Obligations shall be computed on the daily principal balance on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year for the actual number of days elapsed. In computing interest on any Loan, the date of funding of the Loan or the first day of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan being converted from a LIBOR Loan, the date of conversion of such LIBOR Loan to such Base Rate Loan, shall be included; and the date of payment of such Loan or the expiration date of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan, or with respect to a Base Rate Loan being converted to a LIBOR Loan, the date of conversion of such Base Rate Loan to such LIBOR Loan, shall be excluded; provided that if a Loan is repaid on the same day on which it is made, one (1) day's interest shall be paid on that Loan. Interest on Base Rate Loans and all other Obligations other than LIBOR Loans shall be payable to Collateral Agent for the benefit of Lenders monthly in arrears on the first day of each month, on the date of any prepayment of Loans, and at maturity, whether by acceleration or otherwise. Interest on LIBOR Loans shall be payable to Collateral Agent for the benefit of Lenders on the last day of the applicable Interest Period for such Loan, on the date of any prepayment of the Loans, and at maturity, whether by acceleration or otherwise.

(C) Interest Laws. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Borrowers shall not be required to pay, and neither Collateral Agent nor any Lender shall be permitted to collect, any amount of interest in excess of the maximum amount of interest permitted by applicable law ("Excess Interest"). If any Excess Interest is provided for or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been provided for in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, then in such event: (1) the provisions of this subsection shall govern and control; (2) Borrowers shall not be obligated to pay any Excess

Interest; (3) any Excess Interest that Collateral Agent or any Lender may have received hereunder shall be, at such Lender's option, (a) applied as a credit against the outstanding principal balance of the Obligations or accrued and unpaid interest (not to exceed the maximum amount permitted by law), (b) refunded to the payor thereof, or (c) any combination of the foregoing; (4) the interest rate(s) provided for herein shall be automatically reduced to the maximum lawful rate allowed from time to time under applicable law (the "Maximum Rate"), and this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to have been and shall be, reformed and modified to reflect such reduction; and (5) no Borrowers shall have any action against Collateral Agent or any Lender for any damages arising out of the payment or collection of any Excess Interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if for any period of time interest on any Obligations is calculated at the Maximum Rate rather than the applicable rate under this Agreement, and thereafter such applicable rate becomes less than the Maximum Rate, the rate of interest payable on such Obligations shall remain at the Maximum Rate until each Lender shall have received the amount of interest which such Lender would have received during such period on such Obligations had the rate of interest not been limited to the Maximum Rate during such period.

(D) Conversion or Continuation. Subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, satisfying the conditions set forth in Section 3, Borrowers shall have the option to (1) convert at any time all or any part of outstanding Loans equal to $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess of that amount from Base Rate Loans to LIBOR Loans or (2) upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to a LIBOR Loan, to (a) continue all or any portion of such LIBOR Loan equal to $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess of that amount as a LIBOR Loan or (b) convert all or any portion of such LIBOR Loan to a Base Rate Loan. The succeeding Interest Period(s) of such continued or converted Loan shall commence on the last day of the Interest Period of the Loan to be continued or converted; provided that no outstanding Loan may be continued as, or be converted into, a LIBOR Loan, when any Event of Default or Default has occurred and is continuing.

Borrowers shall deliver a Notice of Borrowing with respect to any such conversion/continuation to Collateral Agent no later than 12:00 p.m. (noon) New York time at least two (2) Business Days in advance of the proposed conversion/continuation date. The Notice of Borrowing with respect to such conversion/continuation shall certify: (1) the proposed conversion/continuation date which shall be a Business Day; (2) the amount of the Loan to be converted/continued; (3) the nature of the proposed conversion/continuation; (4) in the case of conversion to, or a continuation of, a LIBOR Loan, the requested Interest Period; (5) that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result from the proposed conversion/continuation; and (6) that all conditions to make Loans as set forth in Section 3 and in the Conditions Rider have been satisfied or waived.

In lieu of delivering a Notice of Borrowing with respect to any such conversion/continuation, any Borrower may give Collateral Agent telephonic notice by the required time of any proposed conversion/continuation under this subsection 2.2(D) (in such telephonic notice such Borrower shall certify to the items set forth above with respect to the Notice of Borrowing); provided that such telephonic notice shall be promptly confirmed in writing by delivery of a Notice of Borrowing (in form and substance described herein) with

respect to such conversion/continuation to Collateral Agent on or before the proposed conversion/continuation date. Once given, such Borrower shall be bound by such telephonic notice. Upon the expiration of an Interest Period for a LIBOR Loan, in the absence of a new Notice of Borrowing or a telephonic notice submitted to Collateral Agent not less than one Business Day prior to the end of such Interest Period, the LIBOR Loan then maturing shall be automatically converted to a Base Rate Loan.

Neither Collateral Agent nor any Lender shall incur any liability to any Borrower in acting upon any telephonic notice or a Notice of Borrowing referred to above that Collateral Agent believes in good faith to have been given by an officer or other person authorized to act on behalf of such Borrower or for otherwise acting in good faith under this subsection 2.2(D).

2.3 Fees.

Borrowers shall pay to Collateral Agent the following fees and charges, which fees and charges shall be non-refundable when paid (irrespective of whether this Agreement is terminated thereafter) and shall be apportioned among the Lenders in accordance with the terms of letter agreements between Collateral Agent and individual Lenders:

(A) Unused Line Fee. Borrowers shall pay to Collateral Agent a monthly fee in an amount equal to the Unused Daily Balance multiplied by 0.042%. Such fee shall be payable monthly in arrears on the first day of each month following the Closing Date.

(B) Letter of Credit Fees. In addition to the Usage Fee and the fees, costs, charges and commissions set forth in subsection 2.1(G)(5), Borrowers shall pay to Collateral Agent a monthly fee with respect to the Letters of Credit in an amount equal to (a) the average daily amount of Letter of Credit Liability outstanding during such month multiplied by two and one-half percent (2.50%) per annum (less the Usage Fee, if any) plus (b), without duplication of amounts payable pursuant to clause (a) above and subsection 2.1(G), the average daily amount of Letter of Credit Liability outstanding during such month for Letters of Credit issued by Persons other than CapitalSource multiplied by the greater of (i) two and one-half percent (2.50%) per annum (less the Usage Fee, if any) and (ii) the Usage Fee. Such fee will be calculated on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year for the actual number of days elapsed and will be payable monthly in arrears on the first day of each month.

(D) Collateral Management Fees. Borrowers shall pay to Collateral Agent, as additional interest, for its own account, a monthly fee (the "Collateral Management Fee") in an amount equal to the average daily principal balance of the Loan (including the Overadvance Facility) during any month multiplied by 0.042%. Such fee shall be payable monthly in arrears on the first day of each month following the Closing Date.

(E) Audit Fees. Borrowers agree to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of Collateral Agent and any firm or individual(s) engaged by Collateral Agent, including Capital Analytics, in connection with any audit of Borrowers' operations or records undertaken pursuant to this Agreement.

(F) Other Fees and Expenses. Borrowers shall pay to Collateral Agent for the benefit of Collateral Agent and the Lenders (based on the charges incurred by Collateral Agent and the Lenders, respectively) (a) all charges for returned items and all other bank charges incurred by Collateral Agent and the Lenders, and (b) standard wire transfer charges for each wire transfer made under this Agreement.

(G) Commitment Fee. On or before the Closing Date, Borrowers shall pay to Collateral Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, an amount equal to one percent (1%) of the initial Facility Cap less One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) (which amount was previously paid by Borrower). Concurrently with any increase in the Facility Cap (and as a condition to the effectiveness of the increase in the amount of the Facility Cap), Borrowers shall pay to Collateral Agent, for the benefit of Lenders an amount equal to one percent (1%) of the increase in the Facility Cap. Any amounts payable under this paragraph shall be deemed to be a nonrefundable commitment fee (the "Commitment Fee"). Borrowers acknowledge that the Commitment Fee is in addition to any fees and costs payable under the Original Loan Agreement (including any "Commitment Fee" or "Additional Commitment Fee" or arrangement fee payable thereunder).

2.4 Payments and Prepayments.

(A) Matters Relating to Cash Management. Borrowers shall (a) establish and maintain cash management services of a type and on terms satisfactory to Collateral Agent at one or more banks satisfactory to the Collateral Agent (the "Lockbox Bank"), (b) deposit or cause to be deposited promptly, and in any event no later than the first Business Day after the date of receipt thereof, all of their collections owed by Medicaid/Medicare Account Debtors into one or more bank accounts (the "Medicare/Medicaid Bank Account") at one of the Lockbox Banks, and shall request in writing and otherwise take such reasonable steps to ensure that all of their Medicaid/Medicare Account Debtors forward payment of the amounts owed by them directly to such Medicare/Medicaid Bank Account to the extent permitted by applicable law, and (c) deposit or cause to be deposited promptly, and in any event no later than the first Business Day after the date of receipt thereof, all of their collections owed by Account Debtors other than Medicaid/Medicare Account Debtors into a bank account that is separate from the bank accounts referenced in subsection (b) (the "Non-Medicare/Medicaid Bank Account") in Collateral Agent's name at one of the Lockbox Banks, and shall request in writing and otherwise take such reasonable steps to ensure that all of their Account Debtors (that are not Medicare/Medicaid Account Debtors) forward payment of the amounts owed by them directly to the Non-Medicare/Medicaid Bank Account. Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this subsection 2.4(A), proceeds of Indebtedness permitted under subsection 7.1 hereof and used for Permitted Acquisitions (and proceeds of receivables securing such Indebtedness permitted pursuant to subsections 7.1(g) and 7.3(B)), need not be deposited with any Lockbox Bank and are not subject to the terms of this subsection 2.4(A).

(1) Borrowers shall further establish and maintain at their expense the following accounts, which Borrowers hereby represent are in existence as of the Closing Date:

(a) depository accounts into which collections of Accounts of any Facility are paid directly or deposited manually by any Borrower (collectively, the "Facility

Deposit Accounts"), which Facility Deposit Accounts (including the bank at which such Facility Deposit Accounts are maintained) are identified on Schedule 2.4(A)(1);

(b) depository accounts into which certain collections of Accounts, including Accounts of Medicare Account Debtors, are paid directly by electronic funds transfer (collectively, the "Medicare Deposit Accounts"), which Medicare Deposit Accounts (including the bank at which such Medicare Deposit Accounts are maintained) are identified on Schedule 2.4(A)(1);

(d) omitted; and

(e) that certain collection account with Wachovia Bank ("Collecting Bank") into which collections of Accounts paid or deposited into the depository accounts described in subparagraph (a) above are transferred on a daily basis on each business day of the Collecting Bank (such collection account, the "Primary Collection Account").

In addition, Borrowers shall establish and maintain at their expense any other depository account that shall be required by Collateral Agent for the purpose of collecting payments or deposits relating to any other Accounts of Borrowers, which additional Accounts, if any, shall also be subject to the provisions of this subsection 2.4(A) (any such Accounts, collectively with the Accounts described in subsection 2.4(A)(1)(a), (b), and (c), the "Borrower Deposit Accounts" and the bank(s) at which any such Borrower Deposit Accounts are maintained, collectively, the "Depository Banks").

(2) Borrowers shall ensure that all collections of Accounts (a) that are paid by the applicable Account Debtor electronically (by electronic funds transfer, wire transfer or otherwise) are paid directly into one of the Borrower Deposit Accounts or a Collection Account (as defined below), (b) that are paid by check are (i) in the case of checks sent by any Medicaid or other Account Debtor which are required by law, rule or regulation to be sent directly to Borrower, sent to the applicable Borrower and deposited by such Borrower in one of the Borrower Deposit Accounts no later than the Business Day following the date of receipt thereof or (ii) in the case of checks sent by any Account Debtor that are not required by law, rule or regulation to be sent directly to Borrowers, sent directly to a Depository Bank for deposit in a Borrower Deposit Account. Borrowers will not accept nor direct any payment of any Account of Borrowers in any manner other than as described above.

(3) On each Business Day of the applicable Depository Banks, Borrowers shall ensure that all collections of Accounts on deposit in the Borrower Deposit Accounts described in subsection 2.4(A)(1)(a), are transferred into a Collection Account. Borrowers shall further ensure that, on each Business Day of the Collecting Bank, all collections of Accounts (x) then on deposit having then been transferred to the Primary Collection Account

and (y) on deposit in the Borrower Deposit Accounts described in subsection 2.4(A)(1)(c) are, in each case, transferred into a collection account maintained by Borrowers with the Collecting Bank (such account, the "Intermediate Collection Account" and, together with the Primary Collection Account, the "Collection Accounts"). Borrowers shall further ensure that, on each Business Day of the Collecting Bank, all collections of Accounts then on deposit or having then been transferred to the Intermediate Collection Account are transferred to a depository account maintained by Collateral Agent at Bank of America or such other financial institution as may be determined by Collateral Agent from time to time in its reasonable discretion, by written notices to the Borrowers and the Collecting Bank (the "Concentration Account").

(4) Collateral Agent and Lenders acknowledge that Borrowers have executed three party lockbox agreements substantially in the applicable form(s) required by Collateral Agent as Exhibit A (collectively, the "Lockbox Agreements") with the Collecting Bank and the following Depository Banks: Bank of America, N.A., PNC Bank, National Association, XX Xxxxxx Xxxxx Bank, Xxxxx Fargo Bank, N.A. and Virginia Commerce Bank. Borrowers shall execute and deliver such other agreements, forms or documents as Collateral Agent or any Depository Bank or the Collecting Bank may require in its Permitted Discretion. At all times after the date hereof, at least eighty percent (80%) of the Accounts shall be paid directly through accounts under Lockbox Agreements. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, one-hundred percent (100%) of the Accounts shall be paid directly through accounts under Lockbox Agreements until such time as determined by Collateral Agent or, if such Event of Default specifies a cure period, until such Event of Default has been cured. Such Lockbox Agreements, including but not limited to the instructions to the applicable Depository Bank or Collecting Bank set forth therein, may be modified only as expressly set forth in such Lockbox Agreements, and Borrowers shall not (a) close or modify the arrangements regarding the Collection Accounts; (b) close or modify the arrangements regarding any Borrower Deposit Account, except Borrowers may close a Borrower Deposit Account so long as (i) Borrowers shall have notified Collateral Agent and (ii) Borrowers shall have arranged that, if such Borrower Deposit Account was subject to a Lockbox Agreement, all Accounts previously paid to such Borrower Deposit Account shall be paid to a newly established or existing Borrower Deposit Account that is subject to a Lockbox Agreement, or to one of the Collection Accounts; or (c) establish or open any Deposit Account into which collections of Accounts are deposited or directed to be deposited, other than as permitted by subsection (b) immediately above or as directed, or consented to by Collateral Agent in writing.

(5) Collateral Agent shall apply, on a daily basis, all collections of Accounts transferred into the Concentration Account pursuant to this subsection 2.4(A) towards amounts owing by the Borrowers under this Agreement. Such transfers will (solely for purposes of computing interest) be credited against the relevant Obligations of the Borrowers on the (a) first (1^st) Business Day after receipt of such collections of Accounts if received no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) or (b) the second (2^nd) Business Day after receipt of such collections of Accounts if received after 1:00 p.m. (New York City time).

(6) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, Collateral Agent shall, for value at the time specified above in this provision, apply the funds credited to the Concentration Account, (a) first, to any expenses, indemnification or Fees owing pursuant to Article 2 or Article 10, (b) second, to interest on the Loans that has become due and

remains unpaid, and, (c) third, to reduce the outstanding balance of the Loans, pro rata among the Loans of all the Lenders; provided, however, that any interest which is paid by Borrowers on funds which have been transferred from the Collection Account to the Concentration Account but not yet credited against the relevant Obligations pursuant to the provisions of this subsection shall be retained by Collateral Agent as compensation for its services.

(7) If as the result of collections of Accounts pursuant to the terms and conditions of this subsection 2.4(A), a credit balance exists with respect to the Concentration Account, such credit balance shall not accrue interest in favor of the Borrowers but shall be disbursed to the appropriate Borrower upon written request to Collateral Agent without any fee or other charge.

(B) Mandatory Prepayments.

(1) Overadvance. At any time that the Revolving Loan exceeds the Maximum Revolving Loan Amount, Borrowers shall immediately repay the Revolving Loan to the extent necessary to reduce the aggregate principal balance to an amount equal to or less than the Maximum Revolving Loan Amount. Any balance of the Revolving Loan (including the Overadvance Facility and including the Letter of Credit Reserve) outstanding at any time in excess of the lesser of (i) the Facility Cap and (ii) the sum of (x) the Borrowing Base plus (y) the Maximum Overadvance Availability, shall be immediately due and payable by Borrowers without the necessity of any demand whether or not a Default or Event of Default has occurred or is continuing. Payments under this subsection shall reduce the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loans but shall not be a permanent reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitment.

(2) Prepayments from Proceeds of Asset Dispositions. No later than the Business Day following the date of receipt by any Borrower of net cash proceeds (i.e., net of ordinary closing costs paid to third parties unaffiliated with any Borrower, net of amounts necessary to pay Indebtedness in favor of third parties unaffiliated with any Borrower secured by the assets disposed of and net) of any Asset Disposition (in one or a series of related transactions), which net cash proceeds exceed $1,000,000 (it being understood that if the net cash proceeds exceed $1,000,000, the entire amount and not just the portion above $1,000,000 shall be subject to this subsection 2.4(B)(2)), Borrowers shall prepay the Obligations in an amount equal to such net cash proceeds. All such prepayments shall be applied to the Loans in accordance with subsection 2.4(E).

(3) Prepayments from Issuance of Securities. No later than the Business Day following the date of receipt by any Borrower of the net cash proceeds of the issuance of equity securities in excess of $1,000,000 individually or in the aggregate (other than the issuance of equity securities in connection with any conversion of indebtedness under and in accordance with the Plan or Confirmation Order, the issuance of securities to any other Borrower, the issuance of securities in connection with the exercise of stock options or the issuance of securities in connection with Permitted Acquisitions), Borrowers shall prepay the Loans in an amount equal to such excess net cash proceeds, net of underwriting discounts and commissions and other reasonable costs associated therewith. All such prepayments shall be applied to the Loans in accordance with subsection 2.4(E).

(4) Prepayments from Tax Refunds. No later than the Business Day following the date of receipt by any Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries of the net cash proceeds of any federal, state or local tax refund in excess of $1,000,000 individually or in the aggregate, Borrowers shall prepay the Loans in an amount equal to such excess net cash proceeds. All such prepayments shall be applied to the Loans in accordance with subsection 2.4(E).

(5) Prepayments from Proceeds of Casualty or Condemnation. No later than the Business Day following the date of receipt by any Borrower of any net cash insurance proceeds arising from damage or casualty, or any net cash proceeds arising from any condemnation, which net cash proceeds exceed $1,000,000 individually or in the aggregate, Borrowers shall prepay the Loans in an amount equal to such net cash proceeds, net of any reasonable costs incurred in connection therewith, to the extent permitted by any mortgages existing from time to time that encumber the real property that is the subject of such damage, casualty or condemnation. All such prepayments shall be applied to the Loans in accordance with subsection 2.4(E).

(C) Collateralization of Letters of Credit; Termination of Commitments. In the event that the entire Revolving Loan Commitment is terminated at a time that any Letters of Credit are outstanding, Borrowers shall immediately cause the Collateral Agent and each Lender to be released from all liability under any Letters of Credit or, at Borrowers' option, Borrowers shall deposit with Collateral Agent for the benefit of all Lenders with a Revolving Loan Commitment cash or a back-to-back letter of credit satisfactory to the Collateral Agent in an amount equal to one hundred and five percent (105%) of the aggregate outstanding Letter of Credit Reserve to be available to Collateral Agent to reimburse payments of drafts drawn under such Letters of Credit and pay any fees and expenses related thereto. Upon termination of any such Letter of Credit, cash in an amount equal to such deposited amount with respect to such Letter of Credit, less amount used to pay unreimbursed drafts, fees and expenses related thereto shall be refunded to Borrowers.

(D) Payments on Business Days. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of the amount of interest or fees due hereunder.

(E) Application of Prepayment Proceeds. So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, with respect to the prepayments described in subsections 2.4(B)(2), 2.4(B)(3), 2.4(B)(4), 2.4(B)(5), 4.5(E), and 4.5(P), such prepayments shall be applied (after payments of amounts specified in subsections 2.4(A)(6)(a) and 2.4(A)(6)(b)), at the election of the Company on written notice to the Collateral Agent, (i) to reduce the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loans but not as a permanent reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitment or (ii) in accordance with subsection 2.1(A)(2). Considering each type of Loan being prepaid separately, any such prepayment shall be applied first to Base Rate Loans of the type required to be prepaid before application to LIBOR Loans of the type required to be prepaid. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, all such amounts shall be applied as provided in subsection 2.4(A)(6)

2.5 Term of this Agreement. This Agreement shall be effective from the Closing Date to and including the Termination Date. To the extent not terminated earlier in accordance with this Agreement, the outstanding Commitments hereunder shall terminate upon the Termination Date and all Obligations shall become immediately due and payable without notice or demand. Notwithstanding any termination, until all Obligations have been fully paid and satisfied, Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and Lenders, shall be entitled to retain security interests in and liens upon all Collateral, and following such termination, Borrowers shall secure any outstanding Letter of Credit in accordance with subsection 2.4(C). Even after payment of all Obligations hereunder, Borrowers' obligation to indemnify Collateral Agent and each Lender in accordance with the terms hereof shall continue.

2.6 Statements. Collateral Agent shall render a monthly statement of account to Borrowers within ten (10) days after the end of each month. Such statement of account shall be deemed conclusive unless Borrowers make written objection thereto within forty-five (45) days from the date such statement is delivered (including via e-mail) to Borrowers. Collateral Agent shall record in its books and records, including computer records, (a) all Loans, interest charges and payments thereof, (b) all Letter of Credit Liability, (c) the charging and payment of all fees, costs and expenses and (d) all other debits and credits pursuant to this Agreement. The balance in the loan accounts shall constitute presumptive evidence, absent manifest error, of the accuracy of the information contained therein; provided, however, that any failure by Collateral Agent to so record shall not limit or affect the Borrowers' obligation to pay.

2.7 Grant of Security Interest.

(A) Grant of Liens in the Collateral. To secure the payment and performance of the Obligations, including all renewals, extensions, restructurings and refinancings of any or all of the Obligations, Borrowers hereby grant to Collateral Agent, for the benefit of Collateral Agent and Lenders, a continuing first priority (subject to Permitted Encumbrances and Liens permitted by subsection 7.3) security interest in, lien and mortgage in and to, right of setoff against and collateral assignment of all of Borrowers' personal property and all rights to such personal property, in each case, whether now owned or existing or hereafter acquired or arising and regardless of where located (all being collectively referred to as the "Collateral") including all: (1) Accounts; (2) Chattel Paper; (3) Commercial Tort Claims, including those specified on Schedule 2.7(A); (4) Deposit Accounts and cash and other monies and property of Borrower in the possession or under the control of Collateral Agent, any Lender or any participant of any Lender in the Loans; (5) Documents; (6) Equipment; (7) Fixtures; (8) General Intangibles (including Intellectual Property, tax refunds and rights to tax refunds); (9) Goods; (10) Instruments; (11) Inventory; (12) Investment Property; (13) Letter-of-Credit Rights and Supporting Obligations; (14) other personal property whether or not subject to the UCC; and (15) all other rights to payment for money or funds advanced or sold whether or not arising out of the use of a credit or charge card together with all books, records, ledger cards, files, correspondence, computer programs, tapes, disks and related data processing software that at any time evidence or contain information relating to or for use with any of the property described above or are otherwise necessary or helpful in the collection thereof or realization thereon; and Proceeds and products of and rents, issues, and profits from all or any of the property described above;

(B) Borrowers Remain Liable. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding: (1) Borrowers shall remain liable under the contracts and agreements included in the Collateral to the extent set forth therein to perform all of its duties and obligations thereunder to the same extent as if this Agreement or the other Loan Documents had not been executed; (2) the exercise by Collateral Agent of any of the rights under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall not release Borrowers from any of their duties or obligations to the parties under the contracts and agreements included in the Collateral; (3) neither Collateral Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation or liability under the contracts and agreements included in the Collateral by reason of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, nor shall Collateral Agent nor any Lender be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of Borrowers thereunder or to take any action to collect or enforce any claim for payment assigned under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; and (4) neither Collateral Agent nor any Lender shall have any liability in contract or tort for Borrowers' acts or omissions with respect to the agreements included in the Collateral, unless such acts or omissions occur under protest by the applicable Borrower pursuant to written direction of Collateral Agent or Lender, which direction constitutes gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of Collateral Agent or Lender.

(C) Security Agreement. This Agreement shall constitute a security agreement as that term is used in the UCC in effect in the jurisdiction(s) in which Borrowers are organized and in the jurisdiction(s) in which the Collateral is situated.

Borrowers hereby irrevocably authorize Collateral Agent to file, in applicable UCC jurisdictions initial financing statements or amendments or continuations thereto (without the necessity of any signature of any Borrowers) relating to the Collateral as described in this Agreement at any time and from time to time in accordance with this Agreement. Borrowers agree to furnish promptly upon request all information required for the sufficiency or filing office acceptance of any such initial financing statement or amendment thereto by the UCC of such jurisdiction. Borrowers hereby ratify all UCC filings relating to the Collateral as described in this Agreement made prior to the date hereof and authorize such filings as if made as of the date of this Agreement.

2.8 Yield Protection.

(A) Capital Adequacy and Other Adjustments. In the event any Lender shall have determined that the adoption after the date hereof of any law, treaty, governmental (or quasi-governmental) rule, regulation, guideline or order regarding capital adequacy, reserve requirements or similar requirements (other than any reserve or other requirements with respect to the Loans that are reflected in the definition of LIBOR or Base Rate) or compliance by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy, reserve requirements or similar requirements (other than any reserve or other requirements with respect to the Loans that are reflected in the definition of LIBOR or Base Rate) (whether or not having the force of law and whether or not failure to comply therewith would be unlawful), from any central bank or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction, does or shall have the effect of increasing the amount of capital, reserves or other funds required to be maintained by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender and thereby reducing the rate of return on such Lender's or such corporation's capital as a consequence of its

obligations hereunder, then Borrowers shall within fifteen (15) days after notice and demand from such Lender (together with the certificate referred to in the next sentence and with a copy to Collateral Agent) pay to Collateral Agent, for the account of such Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such reduction. A certificate as to the amount of such cost and showing the basis of the computation of such cost submitted by such Lender to Borrowers shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes.

(B) Increased LIBOR Funding Costs. If, after the date hereof, the introduction of, change in or interpretation of any law, rule, regulation, treaty or directive would impose or increase reserve requirements (other than as taken into account in the definition of LIBOR or Base Rate) or otherwise increase the cost to any Lender of making or maintaining a Loan, then Borrowers shall from time to time within fifteen (15) days after notice and demand from such affected Lenders (together with the certificate referred to in the next sentence and with a copy to Collateral Agent) pay to Collateral Agent, for the account of such affected Lenders, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lenders for such increased cost. A certificate as to the amount of such cost and showing the basis of the computation of such cost submitted by such affected Lenders to Borrowers and Collateral Agent shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes.

(C) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Borrower shall not be obligated to compensate any Lenders under subsection 2.8(B) for any increased costs incurred more than one hundred eighty (180) calendar days prior to the delivery of the certificate described in subsection 2.8(B) unless the event giving rise to such increase is retroactive, in which event the one hundred eighty day period shall be extended to include the retroactive effect thereof.

2.9 Taxes.

(A) No Deductions. Any and all payments or reimbursements made hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto (all such taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings and all liabilities with respect thereto referred to herein as "Tax Liabilities"; excluding, however, taxes imposed on the net income of any Lender or Collateral Agent by the jurisdiction under the laws of which Collateral Agent or such Lender is organized or doing business or any political subdivision thereof and taxes imposed on its net income by the jurisdiction of Collateral Agent's or such Lender's applicable lending office or any political subdivision). If Borrowers shall be required by law to deduct any such Tax Liabilities from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to Collateral Agent or any Lender, then the sum payable hereunder shall be increased as may be necessary so that, after making all required deductions, Collateral Agent or such Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made.

(B) Changes in Tax Laws. In the event that, subsequent to the Closing Date, (1) any changes in any existing law, regulation, treaty or directive or in the interpretation or application thereof, (2) any new law, regulation, treaty or directive enacted or any interpretation or application thereof, or (3) compliance by Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any governmental authority, agency or instrumentality:

(a) does or shall subject Collateral Agent or Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, or change the basis of taxation of payments to Collateral Agent or Lender of principal, fees, interest or any other amount payable hereunder (except for net income taxes, or franchise taxes imposed in lieu of net income taxes, imposed generally by federal, state or local taxing authorities with respect to interest or commitment or other fees payable hereunder or changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of Collateral Agent or Lender); or

(b) does or shall impose on Collateral Agent or Lender any other condition or increased cost in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or participations herein; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the costs to Collateral Agent or Lender of issuing any Letter of Credit or making or continuing any Loan hereunder, as the case may be, or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder;

then, in any such case, Borrowers shall promptly pay to Collateral Agent or Lender, upon its notice and demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate Collateral Agent or Lender, on an after-tax basis, for such additional cost or reduced amount receivable, as determined by Collateral Agent or Lender with respect to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; provided that if any such Lender or Collateral Agent has a lending office in a jurisdiction that does not impose such taxes, then, upon the Company's request, Collateral Agent or Lender agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such payments or reimbursement to be made to such office. If Collateral Agent or Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this subsection, it shall promptly notify Borrowers of the event by reason of which Collateral Agent or Lender shall become so entitled (with any such Lender concurrently notifying Collateral Agent). A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to the foregoing sentence, together with supporting documentation, submitted by Collateral Agent or Lender to Borrowers shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes.

(C) Foreign Lenders. Each Lender organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States (a "Foreign Lender") as to which payments to be made under this Agreement are exempt from United States withholding tax or are subject to United States withholding tax at a reduced rate under an applicable statute or tax treaty shall provide to Borrowers and Collateral Agent (1) a properly completed and executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI or other applicable form, certificate or document prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service of the United States of America certifying as to such Foreign Lender's entitlement to such exemption or reduced rate of withholding with respect to payments to be made to such Foreign Lender under this Agreement, (a "Certificate of Exemption"), or (2) a letter from any such Foreign Lender stating that it is not entitled to any such exemption or reduced rate of withholding (a "Letter of Non-Exemption"). Prior to becoming a Lender under this Agreement and within fifteen (15) days after a reasonable written request of Borrowers or Collateral Agent from time to time thereafter, each Foreign Lender that becomes a Lender under this Agreement shall provide a Certificate of Exemption or a Letter of Non-Exemption to Borrowers and Collateral Agent. If the form provided by a Lender at the time such Lender first becomes a party to this Agreement indicates a United States interest withholding tax rate in

excess of zero, withholding tax at such rate shall be considered excluded from "Tax Liabilities" as defined in subsection 2.9(A).

If a Foreign Lender is entitled to an exemption with respect to payments to be made to such Foreign Lender under this Agreement (or to a reduced rate of withholding) and does not provide a Certificate of Exemption to Borrowers and Collateral Agent within the time periods set forth in the preceding paragraph, Borrowers shall withhold taxes from payments to such Foreign Lender at the applicable statutory rates, and Borrowers shall not be required to pay any additional amounts as a result of such withholding; provided, however, that all such withholding shall cease upon delivery by such Foreign Lender or a Certificate of Exemption to Borrowers and Collateral Agent.

2.10 Required Termination and Prepayment. If on any date any Lender shall have reasonably determined (which determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties) that the making or continuation of its Loans based on LIBOR (or the Base Rate) has become unlawful or impossible by compliance by such Lender in good faith with any law, governmental rule, regulation or order (whether or not having the force of law and whether or not failure to comply therewith would be unlawful), then, and in any such event, that Lender shall promptly give written notice (or by telephone if confirmed in writing within one (1) Business Day) to Borrowers and Collateral Agent of that determination. Subject to prior withdrawal of a Notice of Borrowing or prepayment of LIBOR Loans , the obligation of such Lender to make or maintain its LIBOR Loans during any such period shall be terminated at the earlier of the termination of the Interest Period then in effect or when required by law and Borrowers shall no later than the termination of the Interest Period in effect at the time any such determination pursuant to this subsection 2.10 is made or, earlier when required by law, repay or prepay LIBOR Loans together with all interest accrued thereon or convert LIBOR Loans to a per annum rate equal to the Prime Rate plus the Prime Rate Margin. Subject to prior withdrawal of a Notice of Borrowing or prepayment of Base Rate Loans, the obligation of such Lender to make or maintain its Base Rate Loans during any such period shall be terminated at the earlier of the termination of the last day of the then current calendar month or when required by law and Borrowers shall no later than the termination of the Interest Period in effect at the time any such determination pursuant to this subsection 2.10 is made or, earlier when required by law, repay or prepay Base Rate Loans together with all interest accrued thereon or convert Base Rate Loans to a per annum rate equal to the Prime Rate plus the Prime Rate Margin.

2.11 Replacement of Lenders. Within fifteen (15) days after receipt by any Borrower of: (a) written notice and demand from any Lender for payment of additional costs as provided in subsection 2.8 or subsection 2.9, or (b) written notice of any Lender's inability to make LIBOR Loans or Base Rate Loans as provided in subsection 2.10, (any such Lender demanding such payment or having such inability being referred to herein as an "Affected Lender"), Borrowers may, at their option notify Collateral Agent and such Affected Lender of its intention to take one of the actions set forth herein in subparagraphs (A) or (B) below.

(A) Replacement of an Affected Lender. Borrowers may obtain, at Borrowers' expense, a replacement Lender ("Replacement Lender") for an Affected Lender, which Replacement Lender shall be reasonably satisfactory to Collateral Agent. In the event Borrowers obtain a Replacement Lender that will purchase all outstanding Obligations owed to

such Affected Lender and assume its Commitments hereunder within ninety (90) days following notice of Borrowers' intention to do so, the Affected Lender shall sell and assign its Loans and Commitments to such Replacement Lender in accordance with the provisions of subsection 9.5; provided, however, Borrowers have in any case where such replacement occurs as the result of a demand for payment of certain costs pursuant to subsection 2.8 or subsection 2.9, paid all increased costs for which such Affected Lender is entitled to under subsection 2.8 or subsection 2.9 through the date of such sale and assignment; or

(B) Prepayment of an Affected Lender. Borrowers may prepay in full all outstanding Obligations owed to an Affected Lender and terminate such Affected Lender's Commitments. Borrowers shall, within ninety (90) days following notice of their intention to do so, prepay in full all outstanding Obligations owed to such Affected Lender, including such Affected Lender's increased costs for which it is entitled to reimbursement under this Agreement through the date of such prepayment, and terminate such Affected Lender's Commitments.

2.12 Compensation. Borrowers shall promptly compensate Collateral Agent for the benefit of Lenders (Collateral Agent's calculation of such amounts shall, absent manifest error, be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto), for any losses, expenses and liabilities including, without limitation, any loss (including interest paid) sustained by such Lender in connection with the re-employment of funds: (a) if for any reason (other than a default by any Lender) a borrowing of any Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or a telephonic request of borrowing (confirmed in writing) by Borrowers; or (b) if any prepayment of any of its LIBOR Loans occurs on a date that is not the last day of an Interest Period applicable to that Loan (regardless of the source of such prepayment and whether voluntary, by acceleration or otherwise); (c) if any prepayment of any of its Loans is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by Borrowers; or (d) as a consequence of any other failure by Borrowers to repay its LIBOR Loans when required by the terms of this Agreement; provided, however, during the period while any such amounts have not been paid, Collateral Agent may, in its sole discretion, (i) in accordance with subsection 2.4(A), elect to make a Revolving Advance for such amount pursuant to subsection 2.1(D) or (ii) reserve an equal amount from amounts otherwise available to be borrowed under the Revolving Loan.

2.13 Booking of LIBOR Loans. Each Lender may make, carry or transfer LIBOR Loans or Base Rate Loans at, to, or for the account of, any of its branch offices or the office of an affiliate of such Lender.

2.14 Assumptions Concerning Funding of LIBOR Loans. No Lender is required to actually fund any relevant Loan through the purchase of a LIBOR deposit. Calculation of all amounts payable to each Lender under subsection 2.12 for LIBOR Loans shall be made as though each Lender had actually funded its relevant LIBOR Loan through the purchase of a LIBOR deposit bearing interest at LIBOR in an amount equal to the amount of that LIBOR Loan and having maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period and through the transfer of such LIBOR deposit from an offshore office to a domestic office in the United States of America; provided, however, each Lender may fund each of its LIBOR Loans in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumption shall be utilized only for the calculation of amounts payable under subsection 2.12.

2.15 Promise to Pay.

Each of the Borrowers absolutely and unconditionally promises to pay principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder, or under any other Loan Document, without any right of rescission and without any deduction whatsoever, including any deduction for any setoff, counterclaim or recoupment, and notwithstanding any damage to, defects in or destruction of the Collateral or any other event, including obsolescence of any property or improvements.

the circumstances of such event. Collateral Agent shall have the right, at any time or times hereafter, to verify the validity, amount or any other matter relating to any Account by mail, telephone or in person and Borrowers shall take such actions as are requested by Collateral Agent to enable Collateral Agent to perform such verification.

If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing: (i) no Borrower shall, without the prior consent of Collateral Agent, adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment of any Account, or release wholly or partly any Account Debtor (or any other Person obligated on such Account), or allow any credit or discount thereon, except in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practices, and (ii) Collateral Agent shall have the right at any time, subject to the provisions of applicable law, including, without limitation, HIPAA, (A) to exercise the rights of any Borrower, with respect to the obligation of the Account Debtor (or any other Person obligated on such Account) to make payment or otherwise render performance to such Borrower, and with respect to any property that secures the obligations of the Account Debtor or of any such other Person obligated on such Account; and (B) to adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment of any such Account or release wholly or partly any Account Debtor or obligor thereunder or allow any credit or discount thereon.

This insurance may, but need not, protect such Borrower's interests. The coverage purchased by Collateral Agent may not pay any claim made by such Borrower or any claim that is made against such Borrower in connection with the Collateral. Such Borrower may later cancel any insurance purchased by Collateral Agent, but only after providing Collateral Agent with evidence that such Borrower has obtained insurance as required by this Agreement. If Collateral Agent purchases insurance for the Collateral, such Borrower will be responsible for the costs of that insurance, including interest thereon and other charges imposed on Collateral Agent in connection with the placement of the insurance, until the effective date of the cancellation or expiration of the insurance, and such costs may be added to the Obligations.

8.3 Acceleration. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in the foregoing subsections 8.1(G) or 8.1(H), all Obligations shall automatically become immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other requirements of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Borrowers, and the Commitments shall thereupon terminate. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any other Event of Default, Collateral Agent may, and upon demand by Requisite Lenders shall, by written notice to Borrowers, (a) declare all or any portion of the Obligations to be, and the same shall forthwith become, immediately due and payable and the Commitments shall thereupon terminate and (b) demand that Borrowers immediately comply with the obligations set forth in subsection 2.4(C).

8.4 Remedies. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, in addition to and not in limitation of any other rights or remedies available to Collateral Agent and Lenders at law or in equity, Collateral Agent may, and upon the request of Requisite Lenders, exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to all other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral) and may also: (a) require Borrowers to, and Borrowers hereby agree that they will, at their expense forthwith, assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by Collateral Agent and make it available to Collateral Agent at a place to be designated by Collateral Agent which is reasonably convenient to both parties; (b) withdraw all cash in the Blocked Accounts to the extent permitted by law and the Concentration Account and apply such monies in payment of the Obligations in the manner provided in subsection 8.7; (c) without notice or demand or legal process, enter upon any premises of any Borrower and take possession of the Collateral; and (d) seek the appointment of a receiver or keeper to take possession of all or any portion of the Collateral or to operate same and, to the maximum extent permitted by law, may seek the appointment of such a receiver without the requirement of prior notice or a hearing. Borrowers agree that, to the extent notice of sale of the Collateral or any part thereof shall be required by law, at least ten (10) business days notice to Borrowers of the time and place of any public disposition or the time after which any private disposition (which notice shall include any other information required by law) is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. At any disposition of the Collateral (whether public or private), if permitted by law, Collateral Agent or any Lender may bid (which bid may be, in whole or in part, in the form of cancellation of indebtedness) for the purchase, lease, or licensing of the Collateral or any portion thereof for the account of Collateral Agent or Lender.

8.5 Appointment of Attorney-in-Fact. Borrowers hereby constitute and appoint Collateral Agent as Borrowers' attorney-in-fact with full authority in the place and stead of any Borrower and in the name of any Borrower, Collateral Agent or otherwise, from time to time in Collateral Agent's discretion while an Event of Default is continuing to take any action and to execute any instrument that Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including: (a) to ask, demand, collect, xxx for, recover, compound, receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in respect of any of the Collateral; (b) to enforce the obligations of any Account Debtor or other Person obligated on the Collateral and enforce the rights of any Borrower with respect to such obligations and to any property that secures such obligations; (c) to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings that Collateral Agent may deem necessary or desirable for the collection of or to preserve the value of any of the Collateral or otherwise to enforce the rights of Collateral Agent and Lenders with respect to any of the Collateral; (d) to pay or discharge taxes or Liens levied or placed upon or threatened against the Collateral, the legality or validity thereof and the amounts necessary to discharge the same to be determined by Collateral Agent in its sole discretion, and such payments made by Collateral Agent to become Obligations, due and payable promptly on demand; (e) to sign and endorse any invoices, freight or express bills, bills of lading, storage or warehouse receipts, assignments, verifications and notices in connection with Accounts, Chattel Paper or General Intangibles and other Documents relating to the Collateral; and (f) generally to take any act required of any Borrower under this Agreement, and to sell, transfer, pledge, make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully and completely as though Collateral Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and to do, at Collateral Agent's option and Borrowers' expense, at any time or from time to time, all acts and things that Collateral Agent deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral. Without limiting the foregoing, each Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the Collateral Agent to send to each Insurer that is an Account Debtor on any Account of such Borrower any notice that such Borrower is required to deliver hereunder if such Borrower has failed to deliver any such notice within five (5) Business Days after such Borrower was required to deliver such notice. In addition, if any Borrower breaches its obligation hereunder to direct payments of the proceeds of the Collateral to the appropriate Blocked Account, the Collateral Agent, as the true and lawful attorney for such Borrower pursuant to this subsection 8.5 and subject to any applicable law or regulation, may, by the signature or other act of any of the Collateral Agent's officers (without requiring any of them to do so), direct any federal, state or private payor or fiscal intermediary to pay proceeds of the Collateral to such

Borrower by directing payment to the appropriate Blocked Account to the extent permitted by law.

Borrowers hereby ratify and approve all acts of Collateral Agent made or taken pursuant to and in accordance with this subsection 8.5. The appointment of Collateral Agent as Borrowers' attorney-in-fact and Collateral Agent's rights and powers are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable, so long as any of the Commitments hereunder shall be in effect and until payment in full, in cash, of all Obligations (other than unasserted contingent indemnification obligations) and termination of all Letters of Credit.

8.6 Limitation on Duty of Collateral Agent and Lenders with Respect to Collateral. Beyond the safe custody thereof, neither Collateral Agent nor Lender shall have any duty with respect to any Collateral in its possession (or in the possession of any agent or bailee) or with respect to any income thereon or the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto. Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which Collateral Agent accords its own property. Neither Collateral Agent nor Lender shall be liable or responsible for any loss or damage to any of the Collateral, or for any diminution in the value thereof, by reason of the act or omission of any warehouse, carrier, forwarding agency, consignee, broker or other agent or bailee selected by Borrowers or selected by Collateral Agent in good faith.

Any balance remaining shall be delivered to Borrowers or to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive such balance or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

8.8 License of Intellectual Property. Borrowers hereby assign, transfer and convey to Collateral Agent, for the benefit of Collateral Agent and Lenders, effective upon the occurrence of any Event of Default hereunder, the non-exclusive right and license to use all Intellectual Property owned or used by Borrowers together with any goodwill associated therewith, all to the extent necessary to enable Collateral Agent to realize on the Collateral and

any successor or assign to enjoy the benefits of the Collateral. This right and license shall inure to the benefit of all successors, assigns and transferees of Collateral Agent and its successors, assigns and transferees, whether by voluntary conveyance, operation of law, assignment, transfer, foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise. Such right and license is granted free of charge and does not require the consent of any other person.

8.9 Waivers; Non-Exclusive Remedies. No failure on the part of Collateral Agent or Lender to exercise, and no delay in exercising and no course of dealing with respect to, any right under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise by Collateral Agent or Lender of any right under this Agreement or any other Loan Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The rights in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative and shall in no way limit any other remedies provided by law.

SECTION 9. AGENT

9.1 Agent.

(A) Appointment. Each Lender hereto and, upon obtaining an interest in any Loan, any participant, transferee or other assignee of any Lender irrevocably appoints, designates and authorizes CapitalSource as Collateral Agent to take such actions or refrain from taking such action as its agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers hereunder and under the other Loan Documents as are delegated by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Neither the Collateral Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable for any action so taken (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct). The provisions of this subsection 9.1 are solely for the benefit of Collateral Agent and Lenders and no Borrower shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions hereof. In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, Collateral Agent shall act solely as Collateral Agent of Lenders and do not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation toward or relationship of agency or trust with or for Borrowers. Collateral Agent may perform any of its duties hereunder, or under the Loan Documents, by or through its agents or employees.

(B) Nature of Duties. Collateral Agent shall have no duties, obligations or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement or in the Loan Documents. Collateral Agent shall not have by reason of this Agreement a fiduciary, trust or agency relationship with or in respect of any Lender or Borrowers. Nothing in this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, express or implied, is intended to or shall be construed to impose upon Collateral Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents except as expressly set forth herein or therein. Each Lender shall make its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of Borrowers, and shall have independently taken whatever steps it considers necessary to evaluate the financial condition and affairs of Borrowers, and Collateral Agent shall have no duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto (other than as expressly required herein), whether coming into its possession before the Closing Date or at any time or times thereafter. If Collateral Agent seeks the consent or approval of any Lenders to the taking or refraining from taking any action hereunder, then Collateral Agent shall send notice thereof to

each Lender. Collateral Agent shall promptly notify each Lender any time that the Requisite Lenders have instructed Collateral Agent to act or refrain from acting pursuant hereto.

(C) Rights, Exculpation, Etc. Neither Collateral Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees or Collateral Agent shall be liable to any Lender for any action taken or omitted by them hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents, or in connection herewith or therewith, except that Collateral Agent shall be liable to the extent of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. Except for errors caused by its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any apportionment or distribution of payments made by it in good faith and if any such apportionment or distribution is subsequently determined to have been made in error, the sole recourse of any Lender to whom payment was due but not made, shall be to recover from other Lenders any payment in excess of the amount to which they are determined to be entitled (and such other Lenders hereby agree to return to such Lender any such erroneous payments received by them). In performing its functions and duties hereunder, Collateral Agent shall exercise the same care which it would in dealing with loans for its own account, but neither Collateral Agent nor any of its agents, representatives shall be responsible to any Lender for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties herein or for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectibility, or sufficiency of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby, or for the financial condition of any Borrower. Collateral Agent shall not be required to make any inquiry concerning either the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents or the financial condition of any Borrower, or the existence or possible existence of any Default or Event of Default. Collateral Agent may at any time request instructions from Lenders with respect to any actions or approvals which by the terms of this Agreement or of any of the Loan Documents Collateral Agent is permitted or required to take or to grant, and if such instructions are promptly requested, Collateral Agent shall be absolutely entitled to refrain from taking any action or to withhold any approval and shall not be under any liability whatsoever to any Person for refraining from any action or withholding any approval under any of the Loan Documents until it shall have received such instructions from Requisite Lenders as to which Requisite Lenders are entitled to give hereunder or all or such other portion of the Lenders as shall be prescribed by this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against Collateral Agent as a result of Collateral Agent acting or refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in accordance with the instructions of Requisite Lenders in the absence of an express requirement for a greater percentage of Lender approval hereunder for such action.

(D) Reliance. Collateral Agent shall not be under any duty to examine, inquire into, or pass upon the validity, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any instrument, document or communication furnished pursuant hereto or in connection herewith. Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any written or oral notices, statements, certificates, orders or other documents or any telephone message or other communication (including any writing, fax, telecopy or telegram) believed by it in good faith to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person, and with respect to all matters pertaining to this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents and its duties hereunder or thereunder. Collateral Agent shall be entitled to

rely upon the advice of legal counsel, independent accountants, and other experts selected by Collateral Agent in its sole discretion.

(E) Indemnification. Lenders will reimburse and indemnify Collateral Agent for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees and expenses), advances or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against Collateral Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by Collateral Agent under this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, in proportion to each Lender's Pro Rata Share, but only to the extent that any of the foregoing is not promptly reimbursed by Borrowers; provided, however, no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses, advances or disbursements resulting from Collateral Agent' gross negligence or willful misconduct. The obligations of Lenders under this subsection 9.1(E) shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

(F) Lenders Includes Collateral Agent. With respect to its Commitments and the Loans made by it, CapitalSource, in its capacity as a Lender and not as Collateral Agent hereunder, shall have and may exercise the same rights and powers hereunder and is subject to the same obligations and liabilities as and to the extent set forth herein for any other Lender. The terms "Lenders" or "Requisite Lenders" or any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include CapitalSource in its individual capacity as a Lender. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that CapitalSource, either directly or through strategic affiliations, may lend money to, acquire equity or other ownership interests in, provide advisory services to and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with any Borrower as if it were not acting as Collateral Agent pursuant hereto and without any duty to account therefor to Lenders. CapitalSource, either directly or through strategic affiliations, may accept fees and other consideration from any Borrower for services in connection with this Agreement or otherwise without having to account for the same to Lenders except as otherwise provided in this Agreement.

(G) Successor Agent.

(1) Resignation. Collateral Agent may resign from the performance of all its agency functions and duties hereunder at any time by giving at least thirty (30) Business Days' prior written notice to Borrowers and the Lenders. Such resignation shall take effect upon the acceptance by a successor Collateral Agent of appointment as provided below.

(2) Appointment of Successor. Upon any such notice of resignation pursuant to subsection 9.1(G)(1) above, Requisite Lenders shall appoint a successor Collateral Agent which, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, shall be reasonably acceptable to Borrowers. If a successor Collateral Agent shall not have been so appointed within said thirty (30) Business Day period, the retiring Collateral Agent, upon notice to Borrowers, shall then appoint a successor Collateral Agent who shall serve as Collateral Agent until such time, if any, as Requisite Lenders appoint a successor Collateral Agent as provided above.

(3) Successor Agent. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Collateral Agent under the Loan Documents by a successor Collateral Agent, such successor Collateral Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Collateral Agent, and the retiring Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents. After any retiring Collateral Agent's resignation as Collateral Agent, the provisions of this Section 9 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Collateral Agent.

(H) Collateral Matters.

(1) Release of Collateral. Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize Collateral Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Lien granted to or held by Collateral Agent upon any Collateral (a) upon termination of the Commitments and upon payment and satisfaction of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations to the extent no claims giving rise thereto have been asserted and Letter of Credit obligations for which Borrowers have provided cash collateral or back-to-back Letters of Credit); (b) constituting property being sold or disposed of by a Borrower if such Borrower certifies to Collateral Agent that the sale or disposition is made in compliance with the provisions of this Agreement (and Collateral Agent may rely in good faith conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry). In addition, with the consent of Requisite Lenders, Collateral Agent may release Liens granted to or held by Collateral Agent upon any Collateral not described in the foregoing sentence having a book value of not greater than ten percent (10%) of the total book value of all Collateral, as determined by Collateral Agent, provided, however, in no event will Collateral Agent, acting under the authority granted to it pursuant to this sentence, release during the term of this Agreement Liens granted to or held by Collateral Agent upon any Collateral having a total book value in excess of twenty percent (20%) of the total book value of all Collateral, as determined by Collateral Agent. In addition, Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize Collateral Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Borrower from its obligations under the Loan Documents if the capital stock or other equity interests of such Borrower constitutes property being sold or disposed of by another Borrower if the Company certifies to Collateral Agent that the sale or disposition is made in compliance with the provisions of this Agreement (and Collateral Agent may rely in good faith conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry).

(2) Confirmation of Authority; Execution of Releases. Without in any manner limiting Collateral Agent's authority to act without any specific or further authorization or consent by Lenders (as set forth in subsection 9.1(H)(1) above), each Lender agrees to confirm in writing, upon request by Collateral Agent or Borrowers, the authority to release any Collateral conferred upon Collateral Agent under clauses (a), (b) and (c) of subsection 9.1(H)(1). To the extent Collateral Agent agrees to release any Lien granted to or held by Collateral Agent as authorized under subsection 9.1(H)(1), (a) Collateral Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized by Lenders to execute and/or authorize the filing of such documents, including, without limitation, UCC-3 partial release statements as may be necessary to evidence the release of the Liens granted to Collateral Agent for the benefit of Collateral Agent and Lenders, upon such Collateral; provided, however, that Collateral Agent shall not be required to execute any such document on terms which, in Collateral Agent's opinion, would expose Collateral Agent to liability or create upon Collateral Agent any obligation or entail any

consequence other than the release of such Liens without recourse or warranty, and (b) Borrowers shall provide at least five (5) Business Days prior written notice of any request for any document evidencing such release of the Liens and Borrowers agree that any such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Obligations or any Liens granted to Collateral Agent on behalf of the Lenders upon (or, except as provided in clause (1), obligations of any Borrower, in respect of) all interests retained by any Borrower, including, without limitation, the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the property covered by this Agreement or the Loan Documents.

(3) Absence of Duty. The Collateral Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any Lender or any other Person to assure that the property covered by this Agreement or the Loan Documents exists or is owned by Borrowers or is cared for, protected or insured or has been encumbered or that the Liens granted to Collateral Agent on behalf of Collateral Agent and Lenders herein or pursuant hereto have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to Collateral Agent in this Agreement or in any of the Loan Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the property covered by this Agreement or the Loan Documents or any act, omission or event related thereto, Collateral Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its reasonable discretion, given Collateral Agent's own interest in property covered by this Agreement or the Loan Documents as one of the Lenders and that Collateral Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to any of the other Lenders; provided, however, that Collateral Agent shall exercise the same care which it would in dealing with loans for its own account.

(I) Agency for Perfection. Collateral Agent and each Lender hereby appoint each other Lender as Collateral Agent for the purpose of perfecting Collateral Agent's security interest in assets which, in accordance with the UCC in any applicable jurisdiction, can be perfected by possession or Control. Should any Lender (other than Collateral Agent) obtain possession of any such assets, such Lender shall notify Collateral Agent thereof, and, promptly upon Collateral Agent's request therefor, shall deliver such assets to Collateral Agent or in accordance with Collateral Agent's instructions. The Collateral Agent may file such proofs of claim or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Collateral Agent and the Lenders (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Collateral Agent and the Lenders, their respective agents, financial advisors and counsel), allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to Borrowers and/or their Subsidiaries, or any of their respective creditors or property, and shall be entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any monies, securities or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims. Any custodian in any judicial proceedings relative to Borrowers and/or their Subsidiaries are hereby authorized by each Lender to make payments to the Collateral Agent and, in the event that the Collateral Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Collateral Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Collateral Agent, its Collateral Agent, financial advisors and counsel, and any other amounts due the Collateral Agent. Nothing contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to authorize the Collateral Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, or revision thereto, arrangement, adjustment or composition

affecting the Loans, or the rights of any holder thereof, or to authorize the Collateral Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding, except as specifically permitted herein.

(J) Exercise of Remedies. Each Lender agrees that it will not have any right individually to enforce or seek to enforce this Agreement or any Loan Document or to realize upon any collateral security for the Loans, unless instructed to do so by Collateral Agent, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised only by Collateral Agent.

9.2 Notice of Default.

Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to the Collateral Agent for the account of Lenders, unless Collateral Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or a Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a "notice of default". Collateral Agent will notify each Lender of its receipt of any such notice.

9.3 Action by Agent.

Collateral Agent shall take such action with respect to any Default or Event of Default as may be requested by Requisite Lenders in accordance with Section 8. Unless and until Collateral Agent has received any such request, Collateral Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to any Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interests of Lenders.

9.4 Amendments, Waivers and Consents.

(A) Percentage of Lenders Required. Except as otherwise provided herein or in any of the other Loan Documents, no amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or consent to any departure by any Borrower therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by (i) the Requisite Lenders and the Collateral Agent or (ii) the Collateral Agent, with the written consent and on behalf of the Requisite Lenders (or, Collateral Agent, if expressly set forth herein or in any of the other Loan Documents) and the applicable Borrower; provided however, no amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent shall be effective, unless in writing and signed by the Collateral Agent, with the consent all Lenders having Commitments of at least Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) to do any of the following: (1) increase any of the Commitments; (2) reduce the principal of or the rate of interest on any Loan or reduce the fees payable with respect to any Loan or Letter of Credit; (3) extend the Termination Date or the scheduled due date for all or any portion of principal of the Loans or any interest or fees due hereunder; (4) amend the definition of the term "Requisite Lenders", the definition of "Pro Rata Share", or the percentage of Lenders which shall be required for Lenders to take any action hereunder; (5) amend or waive this subsection 9.4 or the definitions of the terms used in this subsection 9.4 insofar as the definitions affect the substance of this subsection 9.4; (6) consent to the assignment, delegation or other transfer by any Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under any Loan Document unless permitted hereunder; (7) change the percentage of the

The foregoing notwithstanding, any amendment, modification, waiver, consent, termination, or release of, or with respect to, any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that relates only to the relationship of the Collateral Agent and the Lenders among themselves, and that does not affect the rights or obligations of Borrowers, shall not require consent by or the agreement of Borrowers; provided, further, that no amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent affecting the rights or duties of Collateral Agent under this Section 9 or under any Loan Document shall in any event be effective, unless in writing and signed by Collateral Agent, in addition to the Lenders required to take such action. Any amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent effected in accordance with this Section 9 shall be binding upon each Lender or future Lender.

(B) Specific Purpose or Intent. Each amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given. No amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent shall be required for Collateral Agent to take additional Collateral.

(C) Failure to Give Consent; Replacement of Non-Consenting Lender. In the event Collateral Agent requests the consent of a Lender and does not receive a written consent or denial thereof within ten (10) Business Days or such earlier date as may be specified in such request after such Lender's receipt of such request, then such Lender will be deemed to have denied the giving of such consent. If, in connection with any proposed amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement requiring the consent or approval of all Lenders under this subsection 9.4, the consent of the Requisite Lenders is obtained but the consent of one or more other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained, then Borrowers shall have the right, so long as all such non-consenting Lenders are either replaced or prepaid as described in clauses (1) or (2) below, to either (1) replace the non-consenting Lenders with one or more Replacement Lenders pursuant to subsection 2.11(A), as if such Lender were an Affected Lender thereunder, but only so long as each such Replacement Lender consents to the proposed amendment, modification, termination or waiver, or (2) prepay in full the Obligations of the non-consenting Lenders and terminate the non-consenting Lenders' Commitments pursuant to subsection 2.11(B), as if such Lender were an Affected Lender thereunder.

Notwithstanding anything in this subsection 9.4, Collateral Agent and Borrowers, without the consent of either Requisite Lenders or all Lenders, may execute amendments to this Agreement and the Loan Documents, which consist solely of the making of typographical corrections.

9.5 Assignments and Participations in Loans.

(A) Assignments. Each Lender may assign its rights and delegate its obligations under this Agreement to any third party (subject, unless an Event of Default exists hereunder, to the written consent of Company, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); the parties to such assignment shall execute and deliver to Collateral Agent, for acceptance and recording a Assignment and Acceptance Agreement together with (i) a processing and recording fee of $3,500 payable by the assigning Lender to Collateral Agent and (ii) each of the Notes, if any, originally delivered to the assigning Lender for cancellation. The administrative fee referred to in the preceding sentence shall not apply to an assignment of a security interest in all or any portion of a Lender's rights under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, to another Related Fund (as defined below) or Participant or as described in clause (1) of subsection 9.5(D) below. Upon receipt of all of the foregoing, Collateral Agent shall notify Borrowers of such assignment and Borrowers shall comply with their obligations under the last sentence of subsection 2.1(F). In the case of an assignment authorized under this subsection 9.5 and otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the assignee shall be considered to be a "Lender" hereunder and Borrowers hereby acknowledge and agree that any assignment will give rise to a direct obligation of Borrowers to the assignee. The assigning Lender shall be relieved of its obligations to make Loans hereunder with respect to the assigned portion of its Commitment. Notwithstanding anything in the Loan Documents to the contrary (including this subsection 9.5(A), (i) no Lender shall be required to execute or deliver an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement in connection with any transaction involving any of its Affiliates, or the lenders or funding or financing sources of CapitalSource or any of its Affiliates, and (ii) there shall be no limitation or restriction on (A) the ability of CapitalSource or any of its Affiliates to assign or otherwise transfer any Loan Document, Commitment or Obligation to any such Affiliate or lender or financing or funding source or (B) any such lender's or funding or financing source's ability to assign or otherwise transfer any Loan Document, Commitment or Obligation; provided, however, CapitalSource shall continue to be liable as a "Lender" under the Loan Documents unless such Affiliate, lender or funding or financing source executes and delivers an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement and thereby becomes a "Lender."

(B) Participations. Each Lender may sell participations in all or any part of any Loans or Commitments made by it to another Person; provided, however, such Lender shall first obtain the prior written consent of Collateral Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. All amounts payable by Borrowers hereunder shall be determined as if that Lender had not sold such participation and the holder of any such participation shall not be entitled to require such Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder except action directly effecting (1) any reduction in the principal amount or an interest rate on any Loan in which such holder participates; (2) any extension of the Termination Date or the date fixed for any payment of interest or principal payable with respect to any Loan in which such holder participates; and (3) any release of substantially all of the Collateral. Borrowers hereby acknowledge and agree that the participant under each participation shall for purposes of subsections 2.8, 2.9, 2.10, 9.6 and 10.2 be considered to be a "Lender".

EACH OF THE BORROWERS ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT LENDERS AT ANY TIME AND FROM TIME TO TIME MAY (I) DIVIDE AND RESTATE ANY NOTE, AND/OR (II) SELL, ASSIGN OR GRANT PARTICIPATING INTERESTS IN OR TRANSFER ALL OR ANY PART OF ITS RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS UNDER ANY

LOAN DOCUMENT, NOTE, THE OBLIGATIONS AND/OR THE COLLATERAL TO OTHER PERSONS, SUBJECT TO THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 9.5.

(C) No Relief of Obligations; Cooperation; Ability to Make Loans. Except as otherwise provided in subsection 9.5(A) no Lender shall, as between any Borrower and that Lender, be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as a result of any sale, assignment, transfer or negotiation of, or granting of participation in, all or any part of the Loans or other Obligations owed to such Lender. Each Lender may furnish any information concerning Borrowers and their Subsidiaries in the possession of that Lender from time to time to assignees and participants (including prospective assignees and participants provided that such prospective assignees and participants agree to be bound by the confidentiality provisions hereof). Borrowers agree that they will use their reasonable best efforts to assist and cooperate with Collateral Agent and any Lender in any manner reasonably requested by Collateral Agent or such Lender to effect the sale of a participation or an assignment described above, including without limitation assistance in the preparation of appropriate disclosure documents or placement memoranda provided that the recipient of such information agrees to comply with the confidentiality provisions hereof. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, so long as the Requisite Lenders shall remain capable of making Loans based on LIBOR (and the Base Rate), no Person shall become a Lender hereunder unless such Person shall also be capable of making Loans based on LIBOR (and the Base Rate).

(D) Security Interests; Assignment to Affiliates. Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement, any Lender may at any time following written notice to Collateral Agent (1) pledge the Obligations held by it or create a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to secure obligations to any Federal Reserve Bank pursuant to Regulation A of the Federal Reserve Board or any Related Fund and the provisions of subsection 9.5(A) shall not apply to such pledge or security interest; provided, however, (a) no such pledge or grant of security interest to any Person shall release such Lender from its obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document and (b) the acquisition of title to such Lender's Obligations pursuant to any foreclosure or other exercise of remedies by such Person shall be subject to the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in all respects including, without limitation, any consent required by subsection 9.5; and (2) subject to complying with the provisions of subsection 9.5(A), assign all or any portion of its funded loans to an Assignee which is a Subsidiary of such Lender or its parent company, to one or more other Lenders, or to a Related Fund. For purposes of this paragraph, a "Related Fund" shall mean, with respect to any Lender, a fund or other investment vehicle that invests in commercial loans and is managed by such Lender or by the same investment advisor that manages such Lender or by an Affiliate of such investment advisor.

(E) Recording of Assignments. Collateral Agent shall maintain at its office in Chevy Chase, Maryland, a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance Agreement delivered to it, with a copy to Company, and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of Lenders, and the commitments of, and principal amount 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 presumptive evidence of the amounts due and owing to Lender in the absence of manifest error. Each Borrower, Collateral Agent and Lender 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. The Register shall be available for inspection by any Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time upon reasonable prior notice.

9.6 Set Off and Sharing of Payments. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender is hereby authorized by Borrowers at any time or from time to time, with reasonably prompt subsequent notice to Borrowers (any prior or contemporaneous notice being hereby expressly waived) to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all (a) balances held by such Lender or any of its Affiliates at any of its offices for the account of any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (regardless of whether such balances are then due to a Borrower or its Subsidiaries), and (b) other property at any time held or owing by such Lender or any of its Affiliates to or for the credit or for the account of any Borrower against and on account of any of the Obligations; except that no Lender shall exercise any such right without the prior written consent of Collateral Agent. Any Lender exercising its right to set off shall purchase for cash (and the other Lenders shall sell) interests in each of such other Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Obligations as would be necessary to cause all Lenders to share the amount so set off with each other Lender in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares. Borrowers agree, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that any Lender may exercise its right to set off with respect to amounts in excess of its Pro Rata Share of the Obligations and upon doing so shall deliver such amount so set off to Collateral Agent for the benefit of Collateral Agent and of all Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares.

9.7 Disbursement of Funds. Collateral Agent may, on behalf of Lenders, disburse funds to Borrowers for Loans requested. Each Lender shall reimburse Collateral Agent on demand for all funds disbursed on its behalf by Collateral Agent, or if Collateral Agent so requests, each Lender will remit to Collateral Agent its Pro Rata Share of any Loan or Advance before Collateral Agent disburses same to Borrowers. If Collateral Agent elects to require that each Lender make funds available to Collateral Agent prior to a disbursement by Collateral Agent to Borrowers, Collateral Agent shall advise each Lender by telephone, telex, fax or telecopy of the amount of such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Loan requested by Borrowers no later than 1:00 p.m. New York time on the Funding Date applicable thereto, and each such Lender shall pay Collateral Agent such Lender's Pro Rata Share of such requested Loan, in same day funds, by wire transfer to Collateral Agent's account on such Funding Date.

9.8 Settlements, Payments and Information.

(A) Revolving Advances and Payments; Fee Payments.

(1) Fluctuation of Revolving Loan Balance. The Revolving Loan balance may fluctuate from day to day through Collateral Agent's disbursement of funds to, and receipt of funds from, Borrowers. In order to minimize the frequency of transfers of funds between Collateral Agent and each Lender notwithstanding terms to the contrary set forth in Section 2 and subsection 9.7, Revolving Advances and repayments, except as set forth in subsection 2.1, will be settled according to the procedures described in this subsection 9.8. Notwithstanding these procedures, each Lender's obligation to fund its portion of any advances made by Collateral Agent to Borrowers will commence on the date such advances are made by

Collateral Agent. Such payments will be made by each Lender without set-off, counterclaim or reduction of any kind.

(2) Settlement Dates. Once each week for the Revolving Loan or if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing more frequently (including daily), if Collateral Agent so elects (each such day being a "Settlement Date"), Collateral Agent will advise each Lender by telephone, fax or telecopy of the amount of each such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loan. In the event payments are necessary to adjust the amount of such Lender's required Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loan balance to such Lender's actual Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loan balance as of any Settlement Date, the party from which such payment is due will pay the other, in same day funds, by wire transfer to the other's account not later than 3:00 p.m. New York time on the Business Day following the Settlement Date.

(3) Settlement Definitions. For purposes of this subsection 9.8(A), the following terms and conditions will have the meanings indicated:

(a) "Daily Loan Balance" means an amount calculated as of the end of each calendar day by subtracting (i) the cumulative principal amount paid by Collateral Agent to a Lender on a Loan from the Closing Date through and including such calendar day, from (ii) the cumulative principal amount on a Loan advanced by such Lender to Collateral Agent on that Loan from the Closing Date through and including such calendar day.

(b) "Daily Interest Rate" means an amount calculated by dividing the interest rate payable to a Lender on a Loan (as set forth in subsection 2.2) as of each calendar day by three hundred sixty (360).

(c) "Daily Interest Amount" means an amount calculated by multiplying the Daily Loan Balance of a Loan by the associated Daily Interest Rate on that Loan.

(d) "Interest Ratio" means a number calculated by dividing the total amount of the interest on a Loan received by Collateral Agent with respect to the immediately preceding month by the total amount of interest on that Loan due from Borrowers during the immediately preceding month.

(4) Settlement Payments. On the first Business Day of each month ("Interest Settlement Date"), Collateral Agent will advise each Lender by telephone, fax or telecopy of the amount of such Lender's share of interest and fees on each of the Loans as of the end of the last day of the immediately preceding month. Provided that such Lender has made all payments required to be made by it under this Agreement, Collateral Agent will pay to such Lender, by wire transfer to such Lender's account (as specified by such Lender on the signature page of this Agreement or the applicable Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, as amended by such Lender from time to time after the date hereof or in the applicable Assignment and Acceptance Agreement) not later than 3:00 p.m. Chicago time on the next Business Day following the Interest Settlement Date, such Lender's share of interest and fees on each of the Loans. Such Lender's share of interest on each Loan will be calculated for that Loan by adding together the Daily Interest Amounts for each calendar day of the prior month for that Loan and multiplying the total thereof by the Interest Ratio for that Loan. Such Lender's share of the

Unused Line Fee described in subsection 2.3(A) shall be an amount equal to (a)(i) such Lender's average Revolving Loan Commitment during such month, less (ii) the sum of (x) such Lender's average Daily Loan Balance of the Revolving Loans, plus (y) such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the average daily aggregate amount of Letter of Credit Reserve, in each case for the preceding month, multiplied by (b) the percentage required by subsection 2.3(A). Such Lender's share of all other fees paid to Collateral Agent for the benefit of Lenders hereunder shall be paid and calculated based on such Lender's Commitment with respect to the Loans on which such fees are associated. To the extent Collateral Agent does not receive the total amount of any fee owing by Borrowers under this Agreement, each amount payable by Collateral Agent to a Lender under this subsection 9.8(A)(4) with respect to such fee shall be reduced on a pro rata basis. The Collateral Agent and the Lenders hereby acknowledge and agree that in no event shall the aggregate fee payments received by such Lenders pursuant to this subsection 9.8(A)(4) exceed the total amount of fees pursuant to subsection 2.3.

(B) Return of Payments.

(1) Recovery after Non-Receipt of Expected Payment. If Collateral Agent pays an amount to a Lender under this Agreement in the belief or expectation that a related payment has been or will be received by Collateral Agent from Borrowers and such related payment is not received by Collateral Agent, then Collateral Agent will be entitled to recover such amount from such Lender without set-off, counterclaim or deduction of any kind together with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available by Collateral Agent to such Lender to but excluding the date of repayment to Collateral Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by Collateral Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

(2) Recovery of Returned Payment. If Collateral Agent determines at any time that any amount received by Collateral Agent under this Agreement must be returned to Borrowers or paid to any other Person pursuant to any requirement of law, court order or otherwise, then, notwithstanding any other term or condition of this Agreement, Collateral Agent will not be required to distribute any portion thereof to any Lender. In addition, each Lender will repay to Collateral Agent on demand any portion of such amount that Collateral Agent has distributed to such Lender, together with interest at such rate, if any, as Collateral Agent is required to pay to Borrowers or such other Person, without set-off, counterclaim or deduction of any kind.

9.9 Discretionary Advances. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Collateral Agent may, in its sole discretion, make Revolving Advances in excess of the limitations set forth in the Borrowing Base in an aggregate amount of not more than $3,000,000 for the purpose of preserving or protecting the Collateral or for incurring any costs associated with collection or enforcing rights or remedies against the Collateral, or incurred in any action to enforce this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

SECTION 10. MISCELLANEOUS

10.1 Expenses and Attorneys' Fees. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated, Borrowers agree to promptly pay all reasonable fees and actual

costs and expenses incurred in connection with any matters contemplated by or arising out of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents including the following, and all such reasonable fees and actual costs and expenses shall be part of the Obligations, payable on demand and secured by the Collateral: (a) reasonable fees and actual costs and expenses incurred by Collateral Agent and the Lenders (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses, and fees of environmental consultants, accountants and other professionals retained by Collateral Agent and the Lenders) incurred in connection with the examination, review, due diligence investigation, documentation and closing of the financing arrangements evidenced by the Loan Documents; (b) reasonable fees and actual costs and expenses incurred by Collateral Agent and Issuing Lender (and, during the existence of an Event of Default, the Lenders) (including attorneys' fees and expenses, the allocated costs of Collateral Agent's (and, during the existence of an Event of Default, the Lenders') internal legal staff and fees of environmental consultants, accountants and other professionals retained by Collateral Agent (and, during the existence of an Event of Default, the Lenders') incurred in connection with the review, negotiation, preparation, documentation, execution, syndication and administration of the Loan Documents, the Loans, and any amendments, waivers, consents, forbearances and other modifications relating thereto or any subordination or intercreditor agreements, including reasonable documentation charges assessed by Collateral Agent and the Lenders for amendments, waivers, consents and any other documentation prepared by Collateral Agent's and the Lenders' internal legal staff; (c) reasonable fees and actual costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and allocated costs of internal legal staff) incurred by Collateral Agent in creating, perfecting and maintaining perfection of Liens in favor of Collateral Agent, on behalf of Collateral Agent and the Lenders; (d) reasonable fees and actual costs and expenses incurred by Collateral Agent in connection with forwarding to any Borrower the proceeds of Loans including Collateral Agent's or any Lenders' standard wire transfer fee; (e) reasonable fees and actual costs and expenses and bank charges, including bank charges for returned checks, incurred by Collateral Agent and the Lenders in establishing, maintaining and handling lock box accounts, blocked accounts or other accounts for collection of the Collateral; and (f) reasonable fees and actual costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) of Collateral Agent and the Lenders and costs of settlement incurred in collecting upon or enforcing rights against the Collateral or incurred in any action to enforce this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or to collect any payments due from any Borrower under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or incurred in connection with any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided under this Agreement, whether in the nature of a "workout" or in connection with any insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings or otherwise. If Collateral Agent uses in-house counsel for any purpose for which any Borrower is responsible to pay or indemnify, each Borrower expressly agrees that its indemnification obligations include reasonable charges for such work commensurate with the fees that would otherwise be charged by outside legal counsel selected by Collateral Agent in its sole discretion for the work performed.

10.2 Indemnity. In addition to the payment of expenses pursuant to subsection 10.1, whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated, each Borrower agrees to indemnify, pay and hold Collateral Agent and Lender, and the officers, directors, employees, Collateral Agent, consultants, auditors, persons engaged by Collateral Agent or Lender, to evaluate or monitor the Collateral, affiliates of Collateral Agent, or Lender and permitted holders of any Note (collectively called the "Indemnitees") harmless from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims,

costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for such Indemnitees in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding commenced or threatened, whether or not such Indemnity shall be designated a party thereto) that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against that Indemnitee, in any manner relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, Collateral Agent's and Lender's agreement to make the Loans hereunder, the use or intended use of the proceeds of any of the Loans or the exercise of any right or remedy hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (the "Indemnified Liabilities"); provided that Borrowers shall have no obligation to an Indemnity hereunder with respect to Indemnified Liabilities arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.

10.3 Notices. Unless otherwise specifically provided herein, all notices shall be in writing addressed to the respective party as set forth below and may be personally served, faxed, telecopied or sent by overnight courier service or United States mail and shall be deemed to have been given: (a) if delivered in person, when delivered; (b) if delivered by fax or telecopy, on the date of transmission if transmitted on a Business Day before 4:00 p.m. New York time or, if not, on the next succeeding Business Day; (c) if delivered by overnight courier, the next succeeding Business Day after delivery to such courier properly addressed; or (d) if by U.S. Mail, four (4) Business Days after depositing in the United States mail, with postage prepaid and properly addressed.

such other address as the party addressed shall have previously designated by written notice to the serving party, given in accordance with this subsection 10.3.

10.4 Survival of Representations and Warranties and Certain Agreements. All agreements, representations and warranties made herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of the Loans hereunder. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or implied by law to the contrary, the agreements of Borrowers, Collateral Agent, and Lenders set forth in subsections 9.1(E), 10.1, 10.2, 10.6, 10.11, 10.14, 10.15 and 10.18 shall survive the payment of the Loans and the termination of this Agreement.

10.5 Indulgence Not Waiver. No failure or delay on the part of Collateral Agent, Lender or permitted holder of any Note in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder or under any Note shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privilege.

10.6 Marshaling; Payments Set Aside. Neither Collateral Agent nor any Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Borrower or any other party or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that any Borrower makes a payment or payments to Collateral Agent and/or Lender or Collateral Agent and/or Lender enforces its security interests or exercises its rights of setoff, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or setoff or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any applicable bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then to the extent of such recovery, the Obligations or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

10.7 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents embody the entire agreement among the parties hereto and supersede all prior commitments, agreements, representations, and understandings, whether written or oral, relating to the subject matter hereof, and may not be contradicted or varied by evidence of prior, contemporaneous, or subsequent oral agreements or discussions of the parties hereto.

10.8 Severability. The invalidity, illegality or unenforceability in any jurisdiction of any provision in or obligation under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall not affect or impair the validity, legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations under this Agreement, or the other Loan Documents.

10.9 Lenders' Obligations Several; Independent Nature of Lenders' Rights. The obligation of each Lender hereunder is several and not joint and neither Collateral Agent nor Lender shall be responsible for the obligation or Commitment of any other Lender hereunder. In the event that any Lender at any time should fail to make a Loan as herein provided, the Lenders, or any of them, at their sole option, may make the Loan that was to have been made by the Lender so failing to make such Loan. Nothing contained in any Loan Document and no action

taken by Collateral Agent or Lender pursuant hereto or thereto shall be deemed to constitute Lenders to be a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity. The amounts payable at any time hereunder to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt, and, provided the responsible Collateral Agent fails or refuses to exercise any remedies against Borrowers after receiving the direction of the Requisite Lenders, each Lender shall be entitled to protect and enforce its rights arising out of this Agreement and it shall not be necessary for any other Lender to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

10.10 Headings. Section and subsection headings in this Agreement are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose or be given any substantive effect.

10.11 APPLICABLE LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New York excluding (to the greatest extent a New York court would permit) any rule of law that would cause the application of the law of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York.

10.12 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, provided, however, no Borrower may assign its rights or obligations hereunder without the written consent of Lenders unless such assignment is to another Borrower, in which event assignor Borrower shall remain liable for all the Obligations under this Agreement.

10.13 No Fiduciary Relationship; No Duty; Limitation of Liabilities.

(A) No Fiduciary Relationship. No provision in this Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents and no course of dealing between the parties shall be deemed to create any fiduciary duty by Collateral Agent or Lender to Borrowers.

(B) No Duty. All attorneys, accountants, appraisers, and other professional Persons and consultants retained by Collateral Agent or Lender shall have the right to act exclusively in the interest of Collateral Agent or Lender and shall have no duty of disclosure, duty of loyalty, duty of care, or other duty or obligation of any type or nature whatsoever to any Borrower or any Borrowers' shareholders or any other Person.

(C) Limitation of Liabilities. Neither Collateral Agent nor any Lender, nor any affiliate, officer, director, shareholder, employee, attorney, or Collateral Agent of Collateral Agent or any Lender shall have any liability with respect to, and Borrowers hereby waive, release, and agree not to xxx any of them upon, any claim for any special, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages suffered or incurred by any Borrower in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. Borrowers hereby waive, release, and agree not to xxx Collateral Agent or Lender or any of Collateral Agent or any Lenders' affiliates, officers, directors, employees, attorneys, or Collateral Agent for punitive damages in respect of any claim in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby. Notwithstanding anything in

the foregoing in this subsection 10.13, the Collateral Agent and Lenders hereby acknowledge and agree that Borrowers shall not be deemed to waive or release, or agree not to xxx any Indemnitee upon, any claim against any Indemnitee for direct or actual damages that is the direct result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.

(D) Additional Waivers. Each Borrower acknowledges that none of the Borrowers constitutes a guarantor because each of such parties is fully responsible for the obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (and each of such parties hereby waives any claim to the contrary). In addition, and without limitation on the foregoing waiver or any other waivers contained in the Loan Documents:

A. Obligation Absolute. Each Borrower hereby unconditionally waives any defense to the enforcement of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents based on the characterization of any such Borrower as a guarantor and without limitation:

(1) The obligations of such Borrower hereunder shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be affected or impaired by the following, any of which may be taken without the consent of, or notice to, such Borrower, nor shall any of the following give such Borrower any recourse or right of action against any of the Lenders or Collateral Agent:

(a) Any express or implied amendment, modification, renewal, addition, supplement, extension (including extensions beyond the original term) or acceleration of or to any of the Loan Documents;

(b) Any exercise or non‑exercise by any of the Lenders or Collateral Agent of any right or privilege under the Loan Documents;

(c) Any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, composition, adjustment, dissolution, liquidation or other like proceeding relating to such Borrower or any other Borrower, or any guarantor (which term shall include any other party at any time directly or contingently liable for any of Borrower's obligations under the Loan Documents) or any affiliate of any Borrower, or any action taken with respect to the Loan Documents by any trustee or receiver, or by any court, in any such proceeding, whether or not such Borrower shall have had notice or knowledge of any of the foregoing;

(d) Any release or discharge of any other Borrower from its liability under any of the Loan Documents or any release or discharge of any endorser or guarantor or of any other party at any time directly or contingently liable for the obligations secured or evidenced by the Loan Documents;

(e) Any subordination, compromise, release (by operation of law or otherwise), discharge, compound, collection, or liquidation of any or all of any collateral described in any of the Loan Documents or otherwise in any manner, or any substitution with respect thereto;

(f) Any assignment or other transfer of any of the Loan Documents;

(g) Any acceptance of partial performance of the obligations;

(h) Any transfer or consent to the transfer of any collateral or any portion thereof or any other collateral described in the Loan Documents or otherwise (by one or more of the Borrowers); and

(i) Any bid or purchase at any sale of any collateral described in the Loan Documents or otherwise.

B. Waivers. Each Borrower unconditionally waives any defense to the enforcement of the Loan Documents, including:

(1) All presentments, demands for performance, notices of nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor, and notices of acceptance of the Loan Documents;

(2) Any right to require any of the Lenders or Collateral Agent to proceed against any other Borrower or any guarantor at any time or to proceed against or exhaust any security held by any of the Lenders or Collateral Agent at any time or to pursue any other remedy whatsoever at any time;

(3) The defense of any statute of limitations affecting the liability of such Borrower hereunder, the liability of any other Borrower or any guarantor under the Loan Documents, or the enforcement hereof, to the extent permitted by law;

(4) Any defense arising by reason of any invalidity or unenforceability of (or any limitation of liability in) any of the Loan Documents or any disability of any Borrower or any guarantor or of any manner in which any of the Lenders or Collateral Agent has exercised its rights and remedies under the Loan Documents, or by any cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of any Borrower or any guarantor;

(5) Without limitation on clause (d) above, any defense based upon any lack of authority of the officers, directors, partners or agents acting or purporting to act on behalf of any Borrower or any principal of any Borrower or any defect in the formation of any Borrower or any principal of any Borrower;

(6) Any defense based upon the application by any Borrower of the proceeds of the Loan for purposes other than the purposes represented by such Borrower to any of the Lenders or Collateral Agent or intended or understood by any of the Lenders or Collateral Agent or such Borrower;

(7) Any defense based upon an election of remedies by any of the Lenders or Collateral Agent, including any election to proceed by judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure of any security, whether real property or personal property security, or by deed in lieu thereof, and whether or not every aspect of any foreclosure sale is commercially reasonable, or any election of remedies, including remedies relating to real property or personal property security, which destroys or otherwise impairs the subrogation rights of such Borrower or the rights of such Borrower to proceed against any other Borrower or any guarantor for reimbursement, or both;

(8) Any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in any other aspects more burdensome than that of a principal;

(9) Any defense based upon any of the Lenders or Collateral Agent's election, in any proceeding instituted under the Federal Bankruptcy Code, of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Federal Bankruptcy Code or any successor statute;

(10) Any defense based upon any borrowing or any grant of a security interest under Section 364 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code;

(11) Any duty of any of the Lenders or Collateral Agent to advise such Borrower of any information known to any of the Lenders or Collateral Agent regarding the financial condition of any other Borrower and all other circumstances affecting any other Borrower's ability to perform its obligations to any of the Lenders or Collateral Agent, it being agreed that such Borrower assumes the responsibility for being and keeping informed regarding such condition or any such circumstances; and

(12) Any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnity, or any right to enforce any remedy which any of the Lenders or Collateral Agent now has or may hereafter have against any other Borrower or any benefit of, or any right to participate in, any security now or hereafter held by any of the Lenders or Collateral Agent.

C. Subrogation. Each Borrower understands that the exercise by any of the Lenders or Collateral Agent of certain rights and remedies may affect or eliminate such Borrower's right of subrogation against any other Borrower or any guarantor and that such Borrower may therefore incur partially or totally nonreimbursable liability hereunder. Nevertheless, each Borrower hereby authorizes and empowers any of the Lenders or Collateral Agent, its successors, endorsees and assigns, to exercise in its or their sole discretion, any rights and remedies, or any combination thereof, which may then be available, it being the purpose and intent of such Borrower that the obligations hereunder shall be absolute, continuing, independent and unconditional under any and all circumstances. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Loan Documents to the contrary, each Borrower hereby agrees to withhold, until ninety-one (91) days after the payment of all obligations under the Loan Documents, the expiration or termination of all Commitments and expiration or cancellation of all Letters of Credit, the exercise of any claim or other rights which such Borrower may now have or hereafter acquire against any other Borrower (or any guarantor of all or any of the obligations of such Borrower hereunder) that arise from the existence or performance of such Borrower's obligations under the Loan Documents or any of the

other Loan Documents, including any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification, any right to participate in any claim or remedy of any of the Lenders or Collateral Agent against any other Borrower or any collateral which any of the Lenders or Collateral Agent now has or hereafter acquires, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law, by any payment made hereunder or otherwise, including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from any other Borrower, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by setoff or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim or other rights.

D. Additional Waivers. No Borrower shall be released or discharged, either in whole or in part, by any of the Lenders or Collateral Agent's failure or delay to (i) perfect or continue the perfection of any lien or security interest in any collateral which secures the obligations of any other Borrower, such Borrower, or any guarantor, or (ii) protect the property covered by such lien or security interest.

E. Independent Obligations. The obligation of such Borrower hereunder is independent of the obligation of any other Borrower and, in the event of any default hereunder, a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against such Borrower whether or not such Borrower is the alter ego of any other Borrower and whether or not any other Borrower is joined therein or a separate action or actions are brought against any other Borrower. Any of the Lenders or Collateral Agent's rights hereunder shall not be exhausted until all of the obligations secured or evidenced by the Loan Documents have been fully paid and performed.

F. Bankruptcy No Discharge; Repayments.

Each Borrower understands and acknowledges that by virtue of the Loan Documents, it has specifically assumed any and all risks of a bankruptcy or reorganization case or proceeding with respect to any other Borrower. As an example and not in any way of limitation, a subsequent modification of the obligations secured or evidenced by the Loan Documents in any reorganization case concerning any other Borrower shall not affect the obligation of each such Borrower to pay and perform the obligations secured or evidenced by the Loan Documents in accordance with its original terms. In any bankruptcy or other proceeding in which the filing of claims is required by law, each Borrower shall file all claims which such Borrower may have against any other Borrower relating to any indebtedness of any other Borrower to such Borrower and shall assign to any of the Lenders or Collateral Agent all rights of such Borrower thereunder. If any Borrower does not file any such claim, any of the Lenders or Collateral Agent, as attorney‑in‑fact for such Borrower, is hereby authorized to do so in the name of such Borrower or, in any of the Lenders or Collateral Agent's discretion, to assign the claim to a nominee and to cause proof of claim to be filed in the name of any of the Lenders or Collateral Agent's nominee. The foregoing power of attorney is coupled with an interest and cannot be revoked. any of the Lenders or Collateral Agent or its nominee shall have the right, in its reasonable discretion, to accept or reject any plan proposed in such proceeding and to take any other action which a party filing a claim is entitled to do. In all such cases, whether in administration, bankruptcy or otherwise, the person or persons authorized to pay such claim shall pay to any of the Lenders or Collateral Agent the amount payable on such claim and,

to the full extent necessary for that purpose, each Borrower hereby assigns to any of the Lenders or Collateral Agent all of such Borrower's rights to any such payments or distributions; provided, however, such Borrower's obligations hereunder shall not be satisfied except to the extent that any of the Lenders or Collateral Agent receives cash by reason of any such payment or distribution. If any of the Lenders or Collateral Agent receives anything hereunder other than cash, the same shall be held as collateral for amounts due under the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the liability of each Borrower hereunder shall be reinstated and revised, and the rights of any of the Lenders or Collateral Agent shall continue, with respect to any amount at any time paid by or on behalf of any Borrower on account of any Note or the other Loan Documents which any of the Lenders or Collateral Agent shall restore or return by reason of the bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of any Borrower or for any other reasons, all as though such amount had not been paid.
