THE CREDIT FACILITIES

SECTION 2.1 The Revolving Credit Loans.

- 30 -

whatsoever to honor any request for a Revolving Credit Loan on or after the Expiration Date or if at the time of the proposed funding thereof the aggregate principal amount of all of the Revolving Credit Loans then outstanding (including Swingline Loans) and Pending Revolving Credit Loans exceeds, or would exceed after the funding of such Revolving Credit Loan, the Borrowing Base. Each Borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans shall be funded by Lenders on a Pro Rata basis in accordance with their respective Commitments (except for BofA with respect to Swingline Loans). The Revolving Credit Loans shall bear interest as set forth in Sections 4.1 and 4.2. Each Revolving Credit Loan shall, at the option of the Borrower, be made or continued as, or converted into, part of one or more Borrowings that, unless specifically provided herein, shall consist entirely of Base Rate Advances or LIBOR Rate Advances.

(b) The Revolving Credit Loans made by each Lender shall (at the request of the respective Lender made on not less than 5 Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower) be evidenced by a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender, substantially in the form of Exhibit A (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, a “Revolving Credit Note”), executed by the Borrower and delivered to the Administrative Agent. The Revolving Credit Note payable to the order of a Lender shall be in a stated maximum principal amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata share of the Maximum Amount of the Facility. In the absence of a Revolving Credit Note payable to the order of a Lender, the Revolving Credit Loans made by such Lender shall be evidenced by this Agreement.

(c) The Borrower may permanently reduce the Commitments, on a Pro Rata basis for each Lender, with a corresponding reduction in the Maximum Amount of the Facility, upon at least five days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit such notice to each Lender. Any such notice of reduction shall specify the amount of the reduction, shall be irrevocable once given and shall be effective, subject to the Administrative Agent’s actual receipt thereof, as of the first day of the next month. Each reduction shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000, or an increment of $100,000 in excess thereof. If on the effective date of any such reduction in the Commitments and after giving effect thereto an Overadvance exists, then the provisions of Section 2.1(c) shall apply, except that such repayment shall be due immediately upon such effective date without further notice to or demand upon Borrower. If the Commitments are reduced to zero, then such reduction shall be deemed a termination of the Commitments by Borrower pursuant to Section 2.5(b)(iii). The Commitments, once reduced, may not be reinstated without the written consent of all Lenders.

(d) If the aggregate Revolving Credit Loans outstanding exceed the Borrowing Base (“Overadvance”) or the aggregate Commitments at any time, the excess amount shall be payable by the Borrower on demand by the Administrative Agent, but all such Revolving Credit Loans shall nevertheless constitute Obligations secured by the Collateral and entitled to all benefits of the Loan Documents. Unless its authority has been revoked in writing by Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent may require Lenders to honor requests for Overadvance Loans and to forbear from requiring Borrower to cure an Overadvance, (a) when no other Event of Default is known to the Administrative Agent, as long as (i) the Overadvance does not continue for more than 30 consecutive days (and no Overadvance may exist for at least five consecutive days thereafter before further Overadvance Loans are required), and (ii) the

- 31 -

Overadvance is not known by the Administrative Agent to exceed the lesser of $5,000,000 or five percent (5%) of the Borrowing Base; and (b) regardless of whether an Event of Default exists, if the Administrative Agent discovers an Overadvance not previously known by it to exist, as long as from the date of such discovery the Overadvance (i) is not increased by more than $2,500,000, and (ii) does not continue for more than 30 consecutive days. In no event shall Overadvance Loans be required that would cause the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans and LC Obligations to exceed the aggregate Commitments. Any funding of an Overadvance Loan or sufferance of an Overadvance shall not constitute a waiver by the Administrative Agent or Lenders of the Event of Default caused thereby. In no event shall the Borrower be deemed a beneficiary of this Section nor authorized to enforce any of its terms.

(e) The Administrative Agent shall be authorized, in its discretion, at any time that a Default or Event of Default exists or any conditions in Section 5 are not satisfied, and without regard to the aggregate Commitments, to make Base Rate Advances (“Protective Advances”) (i) up to an aggregate amount equal to the lesser of (A) five percent (5%) of the Borrowing Base and (B) $10,000,000 outstanding at any time, if the Administrative Agent deems such Loans necessary or desirable to preserve or protect any Collateral, or to enhance the collectibility or repayment of Obligations; or (ii) to pay any other amounts chargeable to Obligors under any Loan Documents, including costs, fees and expenses. All Protective Advances shall be Obligations, secured by the Collateral, and shall be treated for all purposes as Extraordinary Expenses. Each Lender shall participate in each Protective Advance on a Pro Rata basis. Required Lenders may at any time revoke the Administrative Agent’s authorization to make further Protective Advances by written notice to the Administrative Agent. Absent such revocation, the Administrative Agent’s determination that funding of a Protective Advance is appropriate shall be conclusive.

SECTION 2.2 LC Facility.

(a) Issuance of Letters of Credit . Issuing Bank agrees to issue Letters of Credit from time to time until 30 days prior to the Expiration Date on the terms set forth herein, including the following:

(i) The Borrower acknowledges that Issuing Bank’s willingness to issue any Letter of Credit is conditioned upon Issuing Bank’s receipt of a LC Application with respect to the requested Letter of Credit, as well as such other instruments and agreements as Issuing Bank may customarily require for issuance of a letter of credit of similar type and amount. Issuing Bank shall have no obligation to issue any Letter of Credit unless (i) Issuing Bank receives a LC Request and LC Application at least three Business Days prior to the requested date of issuance; and (ii) each LC Condition is satisfied. If Issuing Bank receives written notice from a Lender at least one Business Day before issuance of a Letter of Credit that any LC Condition has not been satisfied, Issuing Bank shall have no obligation to issue the requested Letter of Credit (or any other) until such notice is withdrawn in writing by that Lender or until Required Lenders have waived such condition in accordance with this Agreement or until the Borrower has provided evidence satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank that all of the LC Conditions have been satisfied. Prior to receipt of any such notice, Issuing Bank shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any failure of LC Conditions.

- 32 -

(ii) Letters of Credit may be requested by the Borrower only (i) to support obligations of the Borrower incurred in the Ordinary Course of Business; or (ii) for other purposes as the Administrative Agent and Required Lenders may approve from time to time in writing. The renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit shall be treated as the issuance of a new Letter of Credit, except that delivery of a new LC Application shall be required at the discretion of Issuing Bank.

(iii) The Borrower assumes all risks of the acts, omissions or misuses of any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary. In connection with issuance of any Letter of Credit, none of the Administrative Agent, Issuing Bank or any Lender shall be responsible for the existence, character, quality, quantity, condition, packing, value or delivery of any goods purported to be represented by any Documents; any differences or variation in the character, quality, quantity, condition, packing, value or delivery of any goods from that expressed in any Documents; the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any Documents or of any endorsements thereon; the time, place, manner or order in which shipment of goods is made; partial or incomplete shipment of, or failure to ship, any goods referred to in a Letter of Credit or Documents; any deviation from instructions, delay, default or fraud by any shipper or other Person in connection with any goods, shipment or delivery; any breach of contract between a shipper or vendor and the Borrower; errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex, telecopy, e-mail, telephone or otherwise; errors in interpretation of technical terms; the misapplication by a beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or the proceeds thereof; or any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent or any Lender, including any act or omission of a Governmental Authority. The rights and remedies of Issuing Bank under the Loan Documents shall be cumulative. Issuing Bank shall be fully subrogated to the rights and remedies of each beneficiary whose claims against the Borrower are discharged with proceeds of any Letter of Credit.

(iv) In connection with its administration of and enforcement of rights or remedies under any Letters of Credit or LC Documents, Issuing Bank shall be entitled to act, and shall be fully protected in acting, upon any certification, notice or other communication in whatever form believed by Issuing Bank, in good faith, to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by a proper Person. Issuing Bank may consult with and employ legal counsel, accountants and other experts to advise it concerning its obligations, rights and remedies, and shall be entitled to act upon, and shall be fully protected in any action taken in good faith reliance upon, any advice given by such experts. Issuing Bank may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact in connection with any matter relating to Letters of Credit or LC Documents, and shall not be liable for the negligence or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected with reasonable care.

(b) Reimbursement; Participations.

(i) If Issuing Bank honors any request for payment under a Letter of Credit, Borrower shall pay to Issuing Bank, on the same day (“Reimbursement Date”), the amount paid by Issuing Bank under such Letter of Credit, together with interest at the interest rate for Base Rate Advances from the Reimbursement Date until payment by the Borrower. The

- 33 -

obligation of the Borrower to reimburse Issuing Bank for any payment made under a Letter of Credit shall (in the absence of an improper payment of the Letter of Credit which constitutes gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of Issuing Bank) be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid without regard to any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that Borrower may have at any time against the beneficiary. Whether or not the Administrative Agent submits a Notice of Borrowing, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of a Loan as a Base Rate Advance in an amount necessary to pay all amounts due Issuing Bank on any Reimbursement Date and each Lender agrees to fund its Pro Rata share of such Borrowing whether or not the Commitments have terminated, an Overadvance exists or is created thereby, or the conditions in Section 5 are satisfied (provided, however, that if such Loan is not made, the Borrower shall pay such LC Obligations on the first Business Day after the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the amount thereof). Nothing herein shall be deemed to release Issuing Bank from any liability or obligation that it may have in respect to any Letter of Credit to the extent arising out of and directly resulting from its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(ii) Upon issuance of a Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased from Issuing Bank, without recourse or warranty, an undivided Pro Rata interest and participation in all LC Obligations relating to the Letter of Credit. If Issuing Bank makes any payment under a Letter of Credit and Borrower does not reimburse such payment on the Reimbursement Date, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Lenders and each Lender shall promptly (within one Business Day) and unconditionally pay to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Issuing Bank, the Lender’s Pro Rata share of such payment. Upon request by a Lender, Issuing Bank shall furnish copies of any Letters of Credit and LC Documents in its possession at such time.

(iii) The obligation of each Lender to make payments to the Administrative Agent for the account of Issuing Bank in connection with Issuing Bank’s payment under a Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, not subject to any counterclaim, setoff, qualification or exception whatsoever, and shall be made in accordance with this Agreement under all circumstances, irrespective of any lack of validity or unenforceability of any Loan Documents; any draft, certificate or other document presented under a Letter of Credit having been determined to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or the existence of any setoff or defense that the Borrower may have with respect to any Obligations. Issuing Bank does not assume any responsibility for any failure or delay in performance or any breach by the Borrower or other Person of any obligations under any LC Documents. Issuing Bank does not make to Lenders any express or implied warranty, representation or guaranty with respect to the Collateral, LC Documents or the Borrower. Issuing Bank shall not be responsible to any Lender for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties contained in, or for the execution, validity, genuineness, effectiveness or enforceability of any LC Documents; the validity, genuineness, enforceability, collectibility, value or sufficiency of any Collateral or the perfection of any Lien therein; or the assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations, business, creditworthiness or legal status of the Borrower.

- 34 -

(iv) No Issuing Bank Indemnitee shall be liable to any Lender or other Person for any action taken or omitted to be taken in connection with any LC Documents except as a result of its actual gross negligence or willful misconduct. Issuing Bank shall not have any liability to any Lender if Issuing Bank refrains from any action under any Letter of Credit or LC Documents until it receives written instructions from Required Lenders.

(c) Cash Collateral. If any LC Obligations, whether or not then due or payable, shall for any reason be outstanding at any time (a) that an Event of Default exists, (b) that Excess Availability is less than zero, (c) after the Commitment Termination Date, or (d) within 20 Business Days prior to the Expiration Date, then the Borrower shall, at Issuing Bank’s or the Administrative Agent’s request, pay to Issuing Bank the amount of all outstanding LC Obligations and Cash Collateralize all outstanding Letters of Credit. If the Borrower fails to Cash Collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit as required herein, Lenders may (and shall upon direction of the Administrative Agent) advance, as Revolving Credit Loans, the amount of the Cash Collateral required (whether or not the Commitments have terminated, an Overadvance exists, or the conditions in Section 5 are satisfied).

(d) Existing Letters of Credit. Each Existing Letter of Credit outstanding on the Closing Date shall constitute a “Letter of Credit” for all purposes of this Agreement, issued, for purposes of this Section 2.2, on the Closing Date.

SECTION 2.3 Procedure for Borrowing; Notices of Borrowing; Notices of Continuation; Notices of Conversion; Settlement.

(a) Each borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans (each, a “Borrowing”) shall be made on notice, given not later than 12:00 Noon (New York time) on the second Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a LIBOR Rate Advance, and not later than 12:00 Noon (New York time) on the date of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Base Rate Advance, by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent. Each such notice of a Borrowing shall be by telecopier or e-mail, substantially in the form of Exhibit F (a “Notice of Borrowing”), specifying therein the requested (i) date of such Borrowing, (ii) Type of Advance comprising such Borrowing, (iii) aggregate principal amount of such Borrowing, and (iv) Interest Period, in the case of a LIBOR Rate Advance.

(b) With respect to any Borrowing consisting of a LIBOR Rate Advance, the Borrower may, subject to the provisions of Section 2.3(d) and so long as all the conditions set forth in Article V have been fulfilled, elect to maintain such Borrowing or any portion thereof as a LIBOR Rate Advance by selecting a new Interest Period for such Borrowing, which new Interest Period shall commence on the last day of the Interest Period then ending. Each selection of a new Interest Period (a “Continuation”) shall be made by notice given not later than 12:00 Noon (New York time) on the second Business Day prior to the date of any such Continuation by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent. Each such notice of a Continuation shall be by telecopier or e-mail, substantially in the form of Exhibit G (a “Notice of Continuation/Conversion”) and the requested (i) date of such Continuation, (ii) Interest Period and (iii) aggregate amount of the Advance subject to such Continuation, which shall comply with all limitations on Loans hereunder. Upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt of a Notice of

- 35 -

Continuation, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender thereof. Unless, on or before 12:00 Noon (New York time) of the second Business Day prior to the expiration of an Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall have received a Notice of Continuation/Conversion from the Borrower for the entire Borrowing consisting of the LIBOR Rate Advance outstanding during such Interest Period, any amount of such Advance comprising such Borrowing remaining outstanding at the end of such Interest Period (or any unpaid portion of such Advance not covered by a timely Notice of Continuation/Conversion) shall, upon the expiration of such Interest Period, be Converted to a Base Rate Advance.

(c) The Borrower may on any Business Day by a Notice of Continuation/Conversion given by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, and subject to the provisions of Section 2.3(d), Convert the entire amount of or a portion of an Advance of one Type into an Advance of another Type; provided, however, that any Conversion of a LIBOR Rate Advance into a Base Rate Advance shall be made on, and only on, the last day of an Interest Period for such LIBOR Rate Advance. Each such Notice of Continuation/Conversion shall be given not later than 12:00 Noon (New York time) on the Business Day prior to the date of any proposed Conversion into a Base Rate Advance and on the third Business Day prior to the date of any proposed Conversion into a LIBOR Rate Advance. Subject to the restrictions specified above, each Notice of Continuation/Conversion shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit G, specifying (i) the requested date of such Conversion, (ii) the Type of Advance to be Converted, (iii) the requested Interest Period, in the case of a Conversion into a LIBOR Rate Advance, and (iv) the amount of such Advance to be Converted and whether such amount comprises part (or all) of the Revolving Credit Loans. Upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt of a Notice of Continuation/Conversion, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender thereof. Each Conversion shall be in an aggregate amount not less than $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof.

(d) Anything in subsection (b) or (c) above to the contrary notwithstanding,

(i) if, at least one Business Day before the date of any requested LIBOR Rate Advance, the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation (in each case made after the date hereof) makes it unlawful, or any central bank or other Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for any Lender to perform its obligations hereunder to make a LIBOR Rate Advance or to fund or maintain a LIBOR Rate Advance hereunder (including in the case of a Continuation or a Conversion), such Lender shall promptly deliver written notice of such circumstance to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver such notice to the Borrower, and the right of the Borrower to select a LIBOR Rate Advance for such Borrowing or any subsequent Borrowing (including a Continuation or a Conversion) shall be suspended until the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, and any Advance comprising such requested Borrowing shall be a Base Rate Advance;

(ii) if, at least one Business Day before the first day of any Interest Period, the Administrative Agent is unable to determine the LIBOR Rate for LIBOR Rate Advances comprising any requested Borrowing, Continuation or Conversion, the Administrative Agent shall promptly give written notice of such circumstance to the Borrower, and the right of

- 36 -

the Borrower to select or maintain LIBOR Rate Advances for such Borrowing or any subsequent Borrowing shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, and any Advance comprising such Borrowing shall be a Base Rate Advance;

(iii) if any Lender shall, at least one Business Day before the date of any requested Borrowing or Continuation of, or Conversion into, a LIBOR Rate Advance, notify the Administrative Agent, which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver to the Borrower, that the LIBOR Rate for Advances comprising such Borrowing, Continuation or Conversion will not adequately reflect the cost to such Lender of making or funding Advances for such Borrowing, the right of the Borrower to select LIBOR Rate Advances shall be suspended until such Lender shall notify the Borrower that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, and any Advance comprising such Borrowing shall be a Base Rate Advance;

(iv) there shall not be outstanding at any time more than 8 Borrowings which consist of LIBOR Rate Advances;

(v) each Borrowing which consists of LIBOR Rate Advances shall be in an amount equal to $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof; and

(vi) if a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no LIBOR Rate Advances may be borrowed or continued as such and no Base Rate Advance may be Converted into a LIBOR Rate Advance.

(e) Each Notice of Borrowing and Notice of Continuation/Conversion shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower.

(f) (i) If the Administrative Agent shall elect to have the terms of this Section 2.3(f) apply to a requested Borrowing, then, promptly after its receipt of a Notice of Borrowing under Section 2.3(a), the Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders in writing (by telecopier or otherwise as permitted hereunder) of the requested Borrowing. Each Lender shall make the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata share of the requested Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent in same day funds, for the account of the Borrower, prior to 2:00 P.M. (New York time), on the Borrowing Date requested by the Borrower. The proceeds of such Borrowing will then be made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent wire transferring to the Borrower’s Account the aggregate of the amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by the Lenders, and in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent by 2:00 P.M. (New York time), on the requested Borrowing Date.

(ii) Unless the Administrative Agent receives contrary written notice prior to the date of any proposed Borrowing, the Administrative Agent is entitled to assume that each Lender will make available its Pro Rata share of such Borrowing and, in reliance upon that assumption, but without any obligation to do so, may advance such Pro Rata share on behalf of such Lender. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have made such amount available to the Administrative Agent, but the Administrative Agent has made such amount available to the

- 37 -

Borrower, such Lender and the Borrower jointly and severally agree to pay and repay the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount and to pay interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is transferred by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower’s Account until the date such amount is paid or repaid to the Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable at such time to such Loan and (B) in the case of each Lender, for the period from the date such amount was wire transferred to the Borrower’s Account to (and including) three days after demand therefor by the Administrative Agent to such Lender, at the Federal Funds Rate and, following such third day, at the interest rate applicable at such time to such Loan together with all costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection therewith. If a Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent any or all of such amount, such amount so paid shall constitute a Revolving Credit Loan by such Lender to the Borrower for purposes of this Agreement.

(g) If the Administrative Agent shall elect, in its sole and absolute discretion, to have the terms of this Section 2.3(g) apply to a requested Borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans, the Administrative Agent shall make a Loan in the amount of such requested Borrowing (any such Loan made solely by the Administrative Agent under this Section 2.3(g) being referred to as an “Swingline Loan”) available to the Borrower in same day funds by wire transferring such amount to the Borrower’s Account by 2:00 P.M. (New York time) on the requested Borrowing Date. Each Swingline Loan shall be subject to all the terms and conditions applicable hereunder to the Revolving Credit Loans except that all payments thereon shall be payable to the Administrative Agent solely for its own account (and for the account of the holder of any participation interest with respect to such Swingline Loan, including any Lender purchasing such participation interest pursuant to the provisions of this paragraph). In no event shall the aggregate principal amount of Swingline Loans outstanding at any one time exceed $10,000,000. The Administrative Agent shall not make any Swingline Loan if (i) any one or more of the conditions precedent specified in Section 5.2 will not be satisfied on the requested Borrowing Date for the applicable Borrowing. The Swingline Loans shall be secured by the Collateral, shall constitute Loans and Obligations hereunder and shall bear interest at the rate in effect from time to time applicable to the Revolving Credit Loans comprised of Base Rate Advances, including any increase in such rate that is applicable under Section 4.2. The Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender in writing of each Swingline Loan as soon as reasonably practicable. Upon written demand by the Swingline Lender, each other Lender shall purchase from the Swingline Lender a participation interest in any outstanding Swingline Loan in an amount equal to such other Lender’s Pro Rate Share as of the date of such purchase. Each Lender agrees to purchase its Pro Rata share of each Swingline Loan within one Business Day after such demand therefor is made by the Swingline Lender, and on such date of purchase an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding principal amount of the Swingline Loan to be purchased by such Lender shall be advanced to the Administrative Agent and upon receipt of such funds the Administrative Agent shall transfer such funds to the Swingline Lender. Upon any sale by the Swingline Lender to any other Lender of a participating interest in any Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph, the Swingline Lender represents and warrants to such other Lender that the Swingline Lender is the legal and beneficial owner of the interest being sold by it, free and clear of any liens, but makes no other representation or warranty. Except for such representation and warranty, the Swingline Lender shall have no

- 38 -

responsibility or liability to any other Lender with respect to the Swingline Loans or the participation therein so sold, and no Lender shall have any recourse against the Swingline Lender with respect to such Swingline Loans or participation therein, except that the Swingline Lender shall pay to each Lender that purchases a participation interest in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph such Lender’s Pro Rata share of the payments, if any, actually received by the Swingline Lender on account of such Swingline Loans. If and to the extent that any Lender does not so advance the purchase price for such participation interest as required by this paragraph, such Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of Swingline Lender, on demand, an amount computed in the same manner as the amount due to the Administrative Agent from a Lender which has made available funds for loans after the Borrowing Date thereof pursuant to the next to last sentence of Section 2.3(f).

(h) Each Lender’s funded portion of any Loan is intended to be equal at all times to such Lender’s Pro Rata share of all outstanding Loans. Notwithstanding such agreement, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders agree (which agreement shall not be for the benefit of or enforceable by the Borrower) that, to facilitate the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, settlement among them as to the Loans and the Swingline Loans shall take place on a periodic basis in accordance with the following provisions:

(i) The Administrative Agent shall request settlement (“Settlement”) with the Lenders on a weekly basis, or on a more frequent basis if so determined by the Administrative Agent, with respect to (A) each outstanding Swingline Loan and (B) all payments made by the Borrower on account of the Loans, in each case by notifying the Lenders of such requested Settlement by telephone, confirmed immediately in writing (by telecopier or otherwise as permitted hereunder), prior to 12:00 Noon (New York time) on the date of such requested Settlement (any such date being a “Settlement Date”).

(ii) Each Lender shall make the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata share of the outstanding principal amount of the Swingline Loan with respect to which Settlement is requested available to the Administrative Agent in same day funds, for itself or for the account of BofA, prior to 2:00 P.M. (New York time), on the Settlement Date applicable thereto, regardless of whether the conditions precedent specified in Section 5.2 have then been satisfied. Such amounts made available to the Administrative Agent shall be applied against the amounts of the applicable Swingline Loan and, together with the portion of such Swingline Loan representing BofA’s Pro Rata share thereof, shall constitute Revolving Credit Loans of such Lenders. If any such amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by any Lender on the Settlement Date applicable thereto, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate for the first three days from and after such Settlement Date and thereafter at the interest rate then applicable to Base Rate Advances.

(iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, not more than one Business Day after demand is made by the Administrative Agent (whether before or after the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default), each Lender (other than BofA) shall irrevocably and unconditionally purchase and receive from the Administrative Agent, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such Swingline Loan to the extent of such

- 39 -

Lender’s Pro Rata share thereof, by paying to the Administrative Agent, in same day funds, an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata share of such Swingline Loan, regardless of whether the conditions precedent specified in Section 5.2 have then been satisfied. If such amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by any Lender, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate for the first three days from and after such demand and thereafter at the interest rate then applicable to the Revolving Credit Loans for Base Rate Advances, including any increase in such rate that is applicable under Section 4.2.

(iv) From and after the date, if any, on which any Lender purchases an undivided interest and participation in an Swingline Loan under clause (iii) above, the Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to such Lender such Lender’s Pro Rata share of all payments of principal and interest received by the Administrative Agent in respect of such Swingline Loan.

SECTION 2.4 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Revolving Credit Loans shall be used by the Borrower for working capital, capital expenditures, and other lawful corporate purposes and to issue standby or commercial letters of credit.

SECTION 2.5 Maximum Amount of the Facility; Mandatory Prepayments; Optional Prepayments.

(a) In no event shall the sum of (i) the aggregate outstanding principal balances of the Revolving Credit Loans exceed the Borrowing Base or (ii) the aggregate outstanding principal balances of the Revolving Credit Loan plus the L/C Obligations exceed the Maximum Amount of the Facility minus the Availability Block.

(b) The outstanding principal amounts with respect to the Revolving Credit Loans shall be repaid as follows:

(i) Any portion of the Revolving Credit Loans consisting of the principal amount of Base Rate Advances shall be paid by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, for the Pro Rata benefit of Lenders (or, in the case of Swingline Loans, for the sole benefit of BofA) unless timely converted to a LIBOR Rate Advance in accordance with this Agreement, immediately upon (a) each receipt by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or Borrower of any proceeds of any of the Receivables or Inventory, to the extent of such proceeds, (b) the Expiration Date, and (c) in the case of Swingline Loans, the earlier of BofA’s demand for payment or on each Settlement Date with respect to all Swingline Loans outstanding on such date.

(ii) Any portion of the Revolving Credit Loans consisting of the principal amount of LIBOR Rate Advances shall be paid by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, for the Pro Rata benefit of Lenders, unless continued as a LIBOR Rate Advance in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, immediately upon (a) the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto and (b) the Expiration Date. In no event shall the Borrower be authorized to make a voluntary prepayment with respect to any Revolving Credit Loan

- 40 -

outstanding as a LIBOR Rate Advance prior to the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Administrative Agent or the Borrower is otherwise expressly authorized or required by any other provision of this Agreement to pay any LIBOR Rate Advance outstanding on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.5(a), if, on any date that the Administrative Agent receives proceeds of any of the Receivables or Inventory, there are no Revolving Credit Loans outstanding as Base Rate Advances, the Administrative Agent may either hold such proceeds as cash security for the timely payment of the Obligations or apply such proceeds to any outstanding Revolving Credit Loans bearing interest as LIBOR Rate Advances as the same become due and payable (whether at the end of the applicable Interest Periods or on the Expiration Date).

(iii) If for any reason (other than default by a Lender) (a) any Borrowing of, or conversion to or continuation of, a LIBOR Rate Advance does not occur on the date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation (whether or not withdrawn), (b) any repayment or conversion of a LIBOR Rate Advance occurs on a day other than the end of its Interest Period, or (c) the Borrower fails to repay a LIBOR Rate Advance when required hereunder, then the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent to each Lender all reasonable out-of-pocket losses and expenses that it sustains in each case with respect to such Interest Period as a consequence thereof, including any loss or expense arising from liquidation or redeployment of funds or from fees payable to terminate deposits of matching funds. Lenders shall not be required to purchase Dollar deposits in the London interbank market or any other offshore Dollar market to fund any LIBOR Rate Advance, but the provisions hereof shall be deemed to apply as if each Lender had purchased such deposits to fund its LIBOR Rate Advances.

(iv) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement, if an Overadvance shall exist, the Borrower shall, on the sooner to occur of the first Business Day after the Borrower has obtained knowledge thereof or the Administrative Agent’s demand, repay the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans that are Base Rate Advances in an amount sufficient to reduce the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Revolving Credit Loans by an amount equal to such excess; and, if such payment of Base Rate Advances is not sufficient to eliminate the Overadvance, then the Borrower shall immediately deposit with the Administrative Agent, for the Pro Rata benefit of Lenders, for application to any outstanding Revolving Credit Loans bearing interest as LIBOR Rate Advances as the same become due and payable (whether at the end of the applicable Interest Periods or on the Expiration Date) cash in an amount sufficient to eliminate such Overadvance, and the Administrative Agent may (a) hold such deposit as cash security pending disbursement of same to Lenders for application to the Obligations, which disbursement shall be made, or (b) if an Event of Default exists, immediately apply such proceeds to the payment of the Obligations, including the Revolving Credit Loans outstanding as LIBOR Rate Advances (in which event the Borrower shall also pay to the Administrative Agent for the Pro Rata benefit of Lenders any amounts required by Section 2.5(b)(iii) to be paid by reason of the prepayment of a LIBOR Rate Advance prior to the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto).

- 41 -

(c) The entire outstanding principal amount of the Loans, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all fees, costs and expenses payable by the Borrower hereunder, shall become due and payable on the Expiration Date.

(d) The Borrower may prepay any or all of the Loans, without penalty or premium, except as expressly provided in this Section 2.5.

SECTION 2.6 Maintenance of Loan Account; Statements of Account. The Administrative Agent shall maintain an account on its books in the name of the Borrower (the “Loan Account”) in which the Borrower will be charged with all Loans and Advances made by each Lender to the Borrower or for the Borrower’s account, including the Revolving Credit Loans, the Swingline Loans, interest, fees, expenses and any other Obligations. The Loan Account will be credited with all amounts received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower or for the Borrower’s account, including, as set forth below, all amounts received from the Blocked Account Banks. The Administrative Agent shall send the Borrower a monthly statement reflecting the activity in the Loan Account. Each such statement shall be an account stated and shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Borrower, absent error.

SECTION 2.7 Maintenance of Dominion Account and Concentration Account; Collection of Receivables.

(a) (i) The Borrower shall establish and maintain a Dominion Account pursuant to a lockbox or other arrangement reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent with BofA or such other bank as may be selected by the Borrower and be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent. Such Dominion Accounts and lockbox arrangements shall provide for full dominion and control of the Borrower’s cash deposited into all Dominion Accounts, except as otherwise provided in Section 2.7(a)(iii). The Borrower shall issue to each such lockbox bank an irrevocable letter of instruction directing such bank to deposit all payments or other remittances received in the lockbox to the Dominion Account.

(ii) The Borrower shall enter into agreements, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, with each bank at which a Dominion Account is maintained by which such bank shall transfer to the Concentration Account each Payment Item and monies deposited to the Dominion Account not later than the next Business Day following the Business Day on which such Payment Item becomes good funds.

(iii) The Borrower shall enter into agreements, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (it being agreed that any agreement substantially in the form of any agreement with any bank at which a Dominion Account is delivered to the Administrative Agent on or about the Closing Date hereunder is reasonably satisfactory) with each bank at which a Dominion Account or a Concentration Account is maintained pursuant to which (a) prior to such bank’s receipt of a Cash Dominion Notice, such bank shall remit all funds deposited into such Dominion Account or Concentration Account pursuant to the instructions of the Borrower, (b) after such bank’s receipt of a Cash Dominion Notice prior to its subsequent receipt of a Cash Dominion Termination Notice, such bank shall immediately, and without further consent of or notice to the Borrower, transfer to the Concentration Account all monies

- 42 -

deposited to such Dominion Account or Concentration Account until delivery of further notice by the Administrative Agent, and (c) upon its receipt of a Cash Dominion Termination Notice issued by the Administrative Agent after the Administrative Agent’s issuance of a Cash Dominion Notice, such bank shall resume remittance of all funds deposited into such Dominion Account or Concentration Account pursuant to the instructions of the Borrower until such time (if ever) as such bank shall receive from the Administrative Agent a subsequent Cash Dominion Notice. The Administrative Agent agrees promptly to give to such bank a Cash Dominion Termination Notice as soon as practicable after the cessation of a Cash Dominion Period and agrees not to issue a Cash Dominion Notice except during a Cash Dominion Period.

(iv) All balances in each Dominion Account and Concentration Account shall be subject to the Administrative Agent’s Lien. The Borrower shall obtain the agreement (in favor of and in form and content satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and Lenders) by each bank at which a Dominion Account or Concentration Account is maintained to waive any offset rights against the funds deposited into such Dominion Account or Concentration Account, except offset rights in respect of charges incurred in the administration of such Dominion Account or Concentration Account. Neither the Administrative Agent nor Lenders assume any responsibility to the Borrower for such lockbox arrangement or Dominion Account or Concentration Account, including any claim of accord and satisfaction or release with respect to deposits accepted by any bank thereunder.

(b) To expedite collection of Receivables, the Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to keep in full force and effect any supporting obligation or collateral security relating to each such Receivables. The Borrower shall (i) request in writing and otherwise take such reasonable steps to ensure that all Account Debtors forward payment directly to such Dominion Account (or lockboxes related to the Dominion Account), and (ii) during a Cash Dominion Period 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 cash, checks, drafts or other similar items of payment relating to or constituting payments made in respect of any and all Collateral (whether or not otherwise delivered to a lockbox) into the Dominion Account. All Payment Items received by the Borrower in respect of its Receivables, together with the proceeds of any other Collateral, shall be held by the Borrower as trustee of an express trust for the Administrative Agent’s and Lenders’ benefit; the Borrower shall promptly deposit same in kind in the Dominion Account; and the Administrative Agent may remit such proceeds to Lenders for application to the Obligations in the manner authorized by this Agreement. The Administrative Agent retains the right at all times that an Event of Default exists to notify Account Debtors of any the Borrower that Receivables have been assigned to the Administrative Agent, to collect Receivables directly in its own name (and, in connection therewith, and to charge to the Borrower the collection costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, including reasonable attorneys’ fees). At any time an Event of Default exists, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to settle or adjust all disputes and claims directly with the Account Debtor and to compromise the amount or extend the time for payment of any Receivables upon such terms and conditions as the Administrative Agent may deem advisable, and to charge the deficiencies, costs and expenses thereof, including attorneys’ fees, to the Borrower.

SECTION 2.8 Term.

(a) Term. Subject to each Lender’s right to cease making Loans and other extensions of credit to the Borrower when any Default or Event of Default exists or upon termination of the Commitments as provided in Section 2.8(b)(ii), the Commitments shall be in effect for a period (the “Term”) commencing on the date hereof and continuing until the close of business on June 15, 2011, unless sooner terminated as provided in Section 2.8(b).

(b) Termination by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may (and upon the direction of the Required Lenders, shall) terminate the Commitments without notice at any time that an Event of Default exists; provided, however, that the Commitments shall automatically terminate as provided in Section 8.2(b).

(c) Termination by Borrower. Upon at least ten days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower may, at its option, terminate the Commitments; provided, however, no such termination by the Borrower shall be effective until Full Payment of the Obligations. Any notice of termination given by the Borrower shall be irrevocable unless the Administrative Agent otherwise agrees in writing. Within three Business Days after such notice is given, the Administrative Agent shall furnish to the Borrower a pay-off statement with respect to the Obligations detailing the amounts of each category of the Obligations, interest and fees, in each case as of the effective date of the termination of Commitments, subject to adjustment on the effective date of termination of the Commitments to reflect changes in the Obligations to such date. The Borrower may elect to terminate the Commitments in their entirety only, provided that nothing contained herein shall affect the Borrower’s right to voluntarily reduce the Commitments as provided in Section 2.1(e). No section of this Agreement or Type of Loan available hereunder may be terminated by the Borrower singly.

(d) Effect of Termination. On the effective date of termination of the Commitments by the Administrative Agent or by Borrower, all of the Obligations shall be immediately due and payable, Lenders shall have no obligation to make any Loans, the Issuing Bank shall have no obligation to issue any Letters of Credit, and none of the undertakings, agreements, covenants, warranties and representations of the Borrower contained in the Loan Documents (other than as set forth in the next-to-last sentence of this Section) shall survive any such termination, provided that the Administrative Agent shall retain its Liens in the Collateral and all of its rights and remedies under the Loan Documents notwithstanding such termination until Full Payment of the Obligations. In addition, all confidentiality obligations of the parties hereto and all participants shall survive any such termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all obligations of the Borrower to indemnify the Administrative Agent or any Lender pursuant to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, shall in all events survive any termination of the Commitments and Full Payment of the Obligations. Concurrently with the Full Payment of the Obligations, the Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrower all UCC-3 termination statements and any Collateral physically held by the Administrative Agent, together with such other documents as shall reasonably be requested by the Borrower to reflect and evidence the termination and release of all of the Liens securing the Obligations and the Full Payment of the Obligations.

SECTION 2.9 Payment Procedures.

(a) The Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to charge the Loan Account with the amount of all principal, interest, fees, expenses and other payments to be made hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, discharge the Borrower’s payment obligations hereunder by so charging the Loan Account.

(b) Each payment by the Borrower on account of principal, interest, fees or expenses hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders according to the their respective rights thereto. All payments to be made by the Borrower hereunder and under the Notes, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made without setoff, deduction or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 2:00 P.M. (New York time) on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders according to their Pro Rata shares (except as expressly otherwise provided), in immediately available funds. Any payment after such time shall be deemed made on the next Business Day. Borrower may, at the time of payment, specify to the Administrative Agent the Obligations to which such payment is to be applied, but the Administrative Agent shall in all events retain the right to apply such payment in such manner as the Administrative Agent, is permitted to direct pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement. Except for payments which are expressly provided to be made (i) for the account of the Administrative Agent only or (ii) under the settlement provisions of Section 2.3(i), the Administrative Agent shall distribute all payments to the Lenders on the Business Day following receipt in like funds as received. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if a Lender exercises its right of setoff under Section 10.3 or otherwise, any amounts so recovered shall promptly be shared by such Lender with the other Lenders according to their respective Pro Rata shares.

(c) 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 (except as specified in clause (ii) of the definition of Interest Period) and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of the amount of interest due hereunder.

(d) At any time that an Event of Default exists or the Administrative Agent receives a payment or Collateral proceeds in an amount that is insufficient to pay all amounts then due and payable to the Administrative Agent and Lenders, all monies to be applied to the Obligations, whether such monies represent voluntary or mandatory payments or prepayments by one or more the Borrower or are received pursuant to demand for payment or realized from any disposition of Collateral and irrespective of any designation by Borrower of the Obligations that are intended to be satisfied, shall be allocated among the Administrative Agent and such of the Lenders as are entitled thereto (and, with respect to monies allocated to Lenders, on a Pro Rata basis unless otherwise provided herein): (i) first, to the Administrative Agent to pay the amount of Extraordinary Expenses that have not been reimbursed to the Administrative Agent by Borrower or Lenders, together with interest accrued thereon at the rate applicable to Revolving Credit Loans that are Base Rate Advances, until Full Payment of all such Obligations; (ii) second, to the Administrative Agent to pay principal and accrued interest

- 45 -

on any portion of the Revolving Credit Loans which the Administrative Agent may have advanced on behalf of any Lender and for which the Administrative Agent has not been reimbursed by such Lender or Borrower, until Full Payment of all such Obligations; (iii) third, to BofA to pay the principal and accrued interest on any portion of the Swingline Loans outstanding, to be shared with Lenders that have acquired and paid for a participating interest in such Swingline Loans, until Full Payment of all such Obligations; (iv) fourth, to the extent that Issuing Bank has not received from any Participating Lender a payment as required by Section 2.2, to Issuing Bank to pay all such required payments from each Participating Lender, until Full Payment of all such Obligations; (v) fifth, to the Administrative Agent to pay any Claims that have not been paid pursuant to any indemnity of the Agent Indemnitees by the Borrower, or to pay amounts owing by Lenders to the Agent Indemnitees pursuant to Section 9.6, in each case together with interest accrued thereon at the rate applicable to Revolving Credit Loans that are Base Rate Advances, until Full Payment of all such Obligations; (vi) sixth, to the Administrative Agent to pay any fees due and payable to the Administrative Agent, until Full Payment of all such Obligations; (vii) seventh, to each Lender, ratably, for any Claims that such Lender has paid to the Agent Indemnitees pursuant to its indemnity of the Agent Indemnitees and any Extraordinary Expenses that such Lender has reimbursed to the Administrative Agent or such Lender has incurred, to the extent that such Lender has not been reimbursed by the Borrower therefor, until Full Payment of all such Obligations; (viii) eighth, to Issuing Bank to pay principal and interest with respect to LC Obligations (or to the extent any of the LC Obligations are contingent and an Event of Default then exists, deposited in the Cash Collateral Account to Cash Collateralize the LC Obligations), which payment shall be shared with the Participating Lenders in accordance with Section 2.2, until Full Payment of all such Obligations; (ix) ninth, to Lenders in payment of the unpaid principal and accrued interest in respect of the Loans and other Obligations (excluding Banking Relationship Indebtedness) then outstanding, in such order of application as shall be designated by the Administrative Agent (acting at the direction or with the consent of the Required Lenders), until Full Payment of all such Obligations; and (x) tenth, to BofA or any Lender or any Affiliate of BofA or of any Lender in payment of any Banking Relationship Indebtedness owed to such Person and secured by the Collateral hereunder, until Full Payment of all such Obligations. The allocations set forth in this Section 2.9(d) are solely to determine the rights and priorities of the Administrative Agent and Lenders as among themselves and may be changed by the Administrative Agent and Lenders without notice to or the consent or approval of the Borrower or any other Person.

(e) The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any allocation or distribution of payments made by it in good faith and, if any such allocation or distribution is subsequently determined to have been made in error, the sole recourse of any Lender to which payment was due but not made shall be to recover from the other Lenders any payment in excess of the amount to which such other Lenders are determined to be entitled (and such other Lenders hereby agree to return to such Lender any such erroneous payments received by them).

(f) The Borrower irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of any payments or Collateral proceeds, and agrees that the Administrative Agent shall have the continuing, exclusive right to apply and reapply same against the Obligations, in such manner as the Administrative Agent deems advisable, notwithstanding any entry by the Administrative Agent in its records; provided, however, that any payments or proceeds of Collateral received by

- 46 -

the Administrative Agent on any date that an Event of Default does not exist shall be applied in accordance with any provisions of this Agreement that govern the application of such payment or proceeds. If, as a result of the Administrative Agent’s receipt of Payment Items or proceeds of Collateral, a credit balance exists, the balance shall not accrue interest in favor of the Borrower and shall be made available to the Borrower as long as no Default or Event of Default exists.

SECTION 2.10 Defaulting Lenders. If a Lender (a “Defaulting Lender”) fails to make any payment to the Administrative Agent that is required hereunder, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be required to), in its discretion, retain payments that would otherwise be made to such Defaulting Lender hereunder, apply the payments to such Lender’s defaulted obligations or readvance the funds to the Borrower in accordance with this Agreement. The failure of any Lender to fund a Loan or to make a payment in respect of a LC Obligation shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder, and no Lender shall be responsible for default by another Lender. Lenders and the Administrative Agent agree (which agreement is solely among them, and not for the benefit of or enforceable by the Borrower) that, solely for purposes of determining a Defaulting Lender’s right to vote on matters relating to the Loan Documents and to share in payments, fees and Collateral proceeds thereunder, a Defaulting Lender shall not be deemed to be a “Lender” until all its defaulted obligations have been cured.

SECTION 2.11 Notices. The Borrower authorizes the Administrative Agent and Lenders to extend, convert or continue Loans, effect selections of interest rates, and transfer funds to or on behalf of the Borrower based on telephonic or e-mailed instructions. The Borrower shall confirm each such request by prompt delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation, if applicable, but if it differs in any material respect from the action taken by the Administrative Agent or Lenders, the records of the Administrative Agent and Lenders shall govern. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any liability for any loss suffered by the Borrower as a result of the Administrative Agent or any Lender acting upon its understanding of telephonic or e-mailed instructions from a person believed in good faith by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to be a person authorized to give such instructions on the Borrower’s behalf.

ARTICLE III
SECURITY

SECTION 3.1 General. To secure the prompt and complete payment and performance when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of all of the Obligations, the Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent for the Pro Rata benefit of the Lenders a Lien on all of its right, title and interest in and to the Collateral, wherever located, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, and all additions and accessions thereto and substitutions and replacements therefor and improvements thereon, and all proceeds (whether in the form of cash or other property) and products thereof, including all proceeds of insurance covering the same and all tort claims in connection therewith. The Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to take any and all such action as the Administrative Agent deems appropriate, at the Borrower’s expense, to cause any and all Secured Bank Products to be secured by the Collateral and to advise the Lenders that such Secured Bank Products are Obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, none of the restrictions or limitations

- 47 -

imposed upon the Borrower’s use or disposition of the Collateral or any proceeds thereof contained in this Agreement shall apply to the Intercompany Loan Collateral or any proceeds thereof, other than at any time that an Event of Default exists; provided that no Liens other than Permitted Liens shall be permitted to be granted by the Borrower with respect to the Intercompany Loan Collateral but any transferee of Borrower’s interest in the Intercompany Loan Collateral may grant Liens thereon at any time.

SECTION 3.2 Recourse to Security. Recourse to security shall not be required for any Obligation hereunder and the Borrower hereby waives any requirement that the Administrative Agent or the Lenders exhaust any right or take any action against any of the Collateral before proceeding to enforce the Obligations against the Borrower.

SECTION 3.3 Special Provisions Relating to Inventory.

(a) All Inventory. The Lien in the Inventory granted to the Administrative Agent hereunder shall continue through all steps of manufacture and sale and attach without further act to raw materials, work in process, finished goods, returned goods, documents of title and warehouse receipts, and to proceeds resulting from the sale or other disposition of such Inventory. Until all of the Obligations have been satisfied and the Commitments have been terminated, the Administrative Agent’s Lien in such Inventory and in all proceeds thereof shall continue in full force and effect and, if an Event of Default is continuing, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to take physical possession of such Inventory and to maintain it on the premises of the Borrower, in a public warehouse, or at such other place as the Administrative Agent may deem appropriate. If the Administrative Agent exercises such right to take possession of such Inventory, the Borrower will, upon demand, and at the Borrower’s cost and expense, assemble such Inventory and make it available to the Administrative Agent at a place or places convenient to the Administrative Agent.

(b) Further Assurances. The Borrower will, upon the Administrative Agent’s request, perform any and all steps that are necessary to perfect the Administrative Agent’s Liens in the Collateral including placing and maintaining signs, executing and filing financing or continuation statements in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, maintaining stock records and conducting lien searches. In each case, the Borrower shall take such action as promptly as possible after requested by the Administrative Agent but in any event within five Business Days after any such request is made except that the Borrower shall take such action immediately upon the Administrative Agent’s request following the occurrence of an Event of Default. If the Borrower’s Inventory is in the possession or control of any Person other than a purchaser in the Ordinary Course of Business or a public warehouseman where the warehouse receipt is in the name of or held by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall notify such Person of the Administrative Agent’s Lien therein and, upon request, instruct such Person to acknowledge in writing its agreement to hold all such Inventory for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and subject to the Administrative Agent’s instructions. If so requested by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower (as promptly as possible after requested by the Administrative Agent but in any event within five Business Days after any such request is made) will deliver (i) to the Administrative Agent warehouse receipts covering any of the Borrower’s Inventory located in warehouses showing the Administrative Agent as the beneficiary thereof

- 48 -

and (ii) to the warehouseman such agreements relating to the release of warehouse Inventory as the Administrative Agent may request. If so requested by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a confirmatory written instrument, in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, listing all its Inventory, but any failure to execute or deliver the same shall not limit or otherwise affect the Administrative Agent’s Lien in and to such Inventory.

(c) Inventory Records. The Borrower shall maintain full, accurate and complete records of its Inventory describing the kind, type and quantity of such Inventory and the Borrower’s cost therefor, withdrawals therefrom and additions thereto.

SECTION 3.4 Special Provisions Relating to Receivables.

(a) Invoices, Etc. If an Event of Default is continuing, on the Administrative Agent’s request therefor, the Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent (i) the originals of all promissory notes and other instruments in favor of the Borrower, (ii) copies of invoices to customers and shipping and delivery receipts or warehouse receipts thereof, (iii) the originals of all letters of credit in its favor, (iv) such endorsements or assignments related to such letters of credit, notes, and instruments as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request and (v) the written consent of the issuer of any letter of credit to the assignment of the proceeds of such letter of credit by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent.

(b) Records, Collections, Etc. The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of all returns and of all claims asserted with respect to merchandise, in each case with a value in excess of $5,000,000. The Borrower shall promptly report to the Administrative Agent each such return, providing the Administrative Agent with a description of the returned item. If an Event of Default is continuing, the Borrower shall not, without the Administrative Agent’s prior written consent, settle or adjust any dispute or claim, or grant any discount (except ordinary trade discounts), credit or allowance or accept any return of merchandise, except in the ordinary course of its business. The Administrative Agent may (i) settle or adjust disputes or claims directly with Account Debtors for amounts and upon terms which it considers advisable and (ii) notify Account Debtors on the Borrower’s Receivables that such Receivables have been assigned to the Administrative Agent, and that payments in respect thereof shall be made directly to the Administrative Agent.

(c) Receivables. The Administrative Agent may rely, in determining which Receivables are Eligible Receivables, on all statements and representations made by the Borrower with respect to any Receivable and that all Eligible Receivables meet the criteria therefor set forth in the definition of “Eligible Receivables” except to the extent that any such criteria is determined by the discretion of the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 3.5 Continuation of Liens, Etc. The Borrower shall defend the Collateral against all claims and demands of all Persons at any time claiming any interest therein, other than claims relating to Permitted Liens. The Borrower agrees to comply with the requirements of all state and federal laws to grant to the Administrative Agent valid and perfected first priority Liens in the Collateral, subject only to Permitted Liens. The Administrative Agent is hereby

- 49 -

authorized by the Borrower, during the continuance of an Event of Default, to sign the Borrower’s name on any document or instrument as may be necessary or desirable to establish and maintain the Liens covering the Collateral and the priority and continued perfection thereof or file any financing or continuation statements or similar documents or instruments covering the Collateral whether or not the Borrower’s signature appears thereon. The Borrower agrees, from time to time, at the Administrative Agent’s request, to file notices of Liens, financing statements, similar documents or instruments, and amendments, renewals and continuations thereof, and cooperate with the Administrative Agent’s representatives, in connection with the continued perfection (and the priority status thereof) and protection of the Collateral and the Administrative Agent’s Liens thereon. The Borrower shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent in writing if, after the Closing Date, Borrower obtains any interest in any Collateral consisting of chattel paper, documents, instruments, intellectual property, investment property or letter of credit rights, in each case having a value in excess of $5,000,000, and, upon the Administrative Agent’s request, shall promptly execute such documents and take such actions as the Administrative Agent deems appropriate to effect the Administrative Agent’s duly perfected, first priority Lien upon such Collateral, including obtaining any appropriate possession, control agreement or Collateral Access Agreement.

SECTION 3.6 Power of Attorney. In addition to all of the powers granted to the Administrative Agent in this Article III, the Borrower hereby appoints and constitutes the Administrative Agent as the Borrower’s attorney-in-fact to sign the Borrower’s name on any of the documents, instruments and other items described in Section 3.5, to make any filings under the UCC covering any of the Collateral, and to request at any time from customers indebted on its Receivables verification of information concerning such Receivables and the amount owing thereon (provided that any verification prior to an Event of Default shall not contain the Administrative Agent’s name), and, during the continuance of an Event of Default, (i) to convey any item of Collateral to any purchaser thereof and (ii) to make any payment or take any act necessary or desirable to protect or preserve any Collateral. The Administrative Agent’s authority hereunder shall include the authority to execute and give receipt for any certificate of ownership or any document, to transfer title to any item of Collateral and to take any other actions arising from or incident to the powers granted to the Administrative Agent under this Agreement. This power of attorney is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable, provided that it shall terminate upon the payment and satisfaction of all Obligations in full and the termination of the Commitments.

SECTION 3.7 Release of Collateral. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or the Loan Documents, at any time and from time to time, so long as a Default or an Event of Default is not continuing hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall take such actions as may be reasonably requested by the Borrower in order to release all or any portion of the Collateral from the Lien and security interest referred to in this Agreement; provided, however, that in no event shall such Collateral be released from the Lien and security interest hereunder if immediately after such release an Overadvance exists or would occur as a result thereof.

SECTION 4.2 Interest After Event of Default. From the date of occurrence of any Event of Default until the earlier of the date upon which (i) all Obligations shall have been paid and satisfied in full or (ii) such Event of Default shall have been cured or waived, interest on the Obligations shall be payable on demand at a rate per annum (the “Default Rate”) equal to the rate that would be otherwise applicable thereto under Section 4.1 plus an additional two percent (2%).

SECTION 4.3 The Administrative Agent’s and Closing Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, the fees specified in the Fee Letter.

SECTION 4.4 Unused Line Fee and LC Facility Fees.

(a) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the Pro Rata benefit of the Lenders on the first day of each month, commencing with the month immediately following the Closing Date, and on the Expiration Date, in arrears, an unused line fee (the “Unused Line Fee”) equal to the Applicable Margin for the Unused Line Fee times the amount that equals the difference if positive, between (i) the Maximum Amount of the Facility and (ii) the average daily aggregate outstanding amount of the Loans and the L/C Obligations.

(b) The Borrower shall pay (a) to the Administrative Agent, for the Pro Rata benefit of Lenders, a fee equal to the Applicable Margin in effect for LIBOR Rate Advances times the average daily stated amount of Letters of Credit, which fee shall be payable monthly in arrears, on the first day of each month; (b) to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, a fronting fee equal to 0.125% times the average daily stated amount of Letters of Credit, which fee shall be payable monthly in arrears on the first day of each month, and shall be payable on any increase in stated amount made between any such dates; and (c) to Issuing Bank, for its own account, all customary charges associated with the issuance, amending, negotiating, payment, processing, transfer and administration of Letters of Credit, which charges shall be paid as and when incurred.

SECTION 4.5 Calculations. All interest, as well as fees and other charges calculated on a per annum basis, shall be computed for the actual days elapsed, based on a year of 360 days. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of any interest, fees or interest rate hereunder shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent error. All fees shall be fully earned when due and shall not be subject to rebate or refund, nor subject to proration except as specifically provided herein. All fees payable under Sections 4.3 and 4.4 are compensation for services and are not, and shall not be deemed to be, interest or any other charge for the use, forbearance or detention of money. A certificate as to amounts payable by the Borrower under

- 51 -

Section 4.6 or 4.7, submitted to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent or the affected Lender, as applicable, shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent error.

SECTION 4.6 Indemnification in Certain Events. If, after the Closing Date, (i) any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation is made including with respect to reserve requirements, applicable to any Lender, (ii) any Lender is required to comply with, and complies, with any future guideline from any central bank or other Governmental Authority or (iii) there is enacted or adopted any Applicable Law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy, or there is any change therein after the Closing Date, or there is any change after the Closing Date in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof has or would have the effect described below, or any Lender complies with any request or directive made after the Closing Date regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, and in the case of any event set forth in this clause (iii), such adoption, change or compliance has or would have the direct or indirect effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies as the case may be with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, and any of the foregoing events described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) increases the cost to such Lender of funding or maintaining the Loans, or reduces the amount receivable in respect thereof by such Lender, then the Borrower shall, upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of such Lender additional amounts sufficient to indemnify such Lender against such increase in cost or reduction in amount receivable. Each Lender agrees that, if it becomes aware of the occurrence of any such event or condition that would cause it to incur any material increased cost to fund or maintain the Loans or that would reduce the amount receivable in respect thereof in any material respect, it will notify the Administrative Agent (and the Administrative Agent will notify the Borrower) as promptly as practicable of such event or condition and will use its reasonable efforts to make, fund or maintain the affected Loans of such Lender in a manner such that the additional amounts which would otherwise be required to be paid hereunder would be materially reduced, in each case so long as, in such Lender’s reasonable discretion, the making, funding or maintaining of such Loans in such other manner would not otherwise materially adversely affect such Loans or such Lender. If the Borrower shall receive notice from the Administrative Agent that amounts are due to a Lender hereunder, the Borrower may, upon at least five Business Days’ prior written notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, but not more than sixty days after receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent, identify to the Administrative Agent an Eligible Assignee acceptable to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, which will purchase from such Lender the Commitment, the amount of outstanding Loans, and the Notes held by such Lender and such Lender shall thereupon assign its Commitment, any Loans owing to such Lender, and the Notes held by such Lender to such Eligible Assignee in accordance with Section 2.10 upon receipt of such purchase price.

SECTION 4.7 Taxes.

(a) Subject to the provisions of this Section 4.7, any and all payments by the Borrower hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents shall be made free and clear of

- 52 -

and without deduction for any and all Taxes, excluding any Taxes imposed on the net income or gross receipts of the recipient of such payment (including any Taxes imposed on branch profits) and franchise or capital stock Taxes imposed on such recipient by any applicable jurisdiction. If the Borrower shall be required by Applicable Law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any Loan to or for the benefit of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, (A) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions of Taxes (including deductions of Taxes applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 4.7) the Administrative Agent or such Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (B) the Borrower shall make such deductions and (C) the Borrower shall pay the full amount so deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with Applicable Law.

(b) In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay any present or future stamp, documentary, excise, privilege, intangible or similar Taxes or levies that arise at any time or from time to time (i) from any payment made under any and all Loan Documents, or (ii) from the execution or delivery by the Borrower of, or from the filing or recording or maintenance of, or otherwise with respect to the exercise by the Administrative Agent of its rights under, any and all Loan Documents (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

(c) Within thirty days after the date of any payment of Taxes or Other Taxes, the Borrower will, upon request, furnish to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof.

(d) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrower contained in this Section 4.7 shall survive the Full Payment of the Obligations.

(e) Each Person that is not a Foreign Lender which acquires (including as a result of the entering into of this Agreement or the making of a Loan) an interest in this Agreement or any Loan, on or prior to the effective date of such acquisition, will deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two valid, duly completed copies of such documentation (including IRS Form W-9 or any applicable successor form), as is required to establish that such Person is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement and the Notes payable to it without deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax and to establish an exception for United States withholding tax unless such Person is otherwise not required under Applicable Law to deliver such documentation to establish its exemption from such deduction or withholding (it being acknowledged that BofA is a Person not required to deliver such documentation). Each Person that delivers to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a Form W-9, or any other required form, pursuant to the preceding sentence, further undertakes to deliver two further copies of such Form, or applicable successor forms, or other manner of required certification, as the case may be, on or before the date that any such form expires or becomes obsolete or otherwise is required to be resubmitted as a condition to obtaining an exemption from a required withholding of United States federal income tax or after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form previously delivered by it to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and such extensions or renewals thereof as may reasonably be required by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, certifying that such

- 53 -

(b) The Administrative Agent may bid or become a purchaser at any sale, free from any right of redemption, which right is expressly waived by the Borrower. If notice of intended disposition of any Collateral is required by law, it is agreed that ten days’ notice shall constitute reasonable notification. The Borrower will assemble the Collateral in its possession and make it available at such locations as the Administrative Agent may specify, whether at the premises of the Borrower or elsewhere, and will make available to the Administrative Agent the premises and facilities of the Borrower for the purpose of the Administrative Agent’s taking possession of or removing the Collateral or putting the Collateral in saleable form. The Administrative Agent may sell the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any exchange, broker’s board or at any of the Administrative Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and upon such other terms as the Administrative Agent may deem commercially reasonable. The Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given.

- 71 -

continuation of an Event of Default, without charge, all computer software programs, data bases, processes, trademarks, tradenames, copyrights, labels, trade secrets, service marks, advertising materials and other rights, assets and materials used by the Borrower in connection with its businesses or in connection with the Collateral, but only to the extent such rights are assignable by the Borrower and the Borrower is not prohibited by any agreement or Applicable Law from making such assignment.

The Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to marshal any Collateral or to seek recourse against or satisfaction of any of the Obligations from one source of Collateral or from the Borrower before seeking recourse against or satisfaction from another source of Collateral or from the Borrower. The net cash proceeds resulting from the Administrative Agent’s exercise of any of the foregoing rights to liquidate all or substantially all of the Collateral, including any and all Collections (after deducting all of the Administrative Agent’s expenses related thereto), shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to such of the Obligations and in such order as the Administrative Agent shall elect in its sole and absolute discretion, whether due or to become due. The Borrower shall remain liable to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for any deficiencies, and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in turn agree to remit to the Borrower or its successor or assign any surplus resulting therefrom. All of the Administrative Agent’s and the Lenders’ remedies under the Loan Documents shall be cumulative, may be exercised simultaneously against any Collateral and the Borrower or in such order and with respect to such Collateral or the Borrower as the Administrative Agent may deem desirable, and are not intended to be exhaustive.

SECTION 8.6 Waivers. Except as may be otherwise specifically provided herein or in any other Loan Document, the Borrower hereby waives, to the extent permitted by law, any right to a judicial or other hearing with respect to any action or prejudgment remedy or proceeding by the Administrative Agent to take possession, exercise control over, or dispose of any item of Collateral in any instance (regardless of where the same may be located) where such action is permitted under the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or by Applicable Law or of the time, place or terms of sale in connection with the exercise of the Administrative Agent’s rights hereunder and also waives any bonds, security or sureties required by any statute, rule or other law as an incident to any taking of possession by the Administrative Agent of any Collateral. The Borrower also consents that the Administrative Agent may, during the continuation of an Event of Default, enter upon any premises owned by or leased to it without obligations to pay rent or for use and occupancy, through self-help, without judicial process and without having first obtained an order of any court. These waivers and all other waivers provided for in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents have been negotiated by the parties, and the Borrower acknowledges that it has been represented by counsel of its own choice, has consulted such counsel with respect to its rights hereunder and has freely and voluntarily entered into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as the result of arm’s-length negotiations.

SECTION 8.7 Further Rights of the Administrative Agent.

(a) Further Assurances. The Borrower shall do all things and shall execute and deliver all documents and instruments reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent to

- 72 -

protect or perfect any Lien (and the priority thereof other than with respect to Permitted Liens) of the Administrative Agent on the Collateral.

(b) Insurance; Etc. If the Borrower shall fail to purchase or maintain insurance (where applicable), or to pay any tax, assessment, governmental charge or levy, except as the same may be otherwise permitted hereunder or which is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which adequate reserves have been established in accordance with GAAP, or if any Lien prohibited hereby shall not be paid in full and discharged or if the Borrower shall fail to perform or comply with any other covenant, promise or obligation to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders hereunder or under any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be required to), if the Borrower has not done so within ten (10) days after the Administrative Agent’s written request, perform, pay, satisfy, discharge or bond the same for the account of the Borrower, and all amounts so paid by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders shall be treated as a Revolving Credit Loan, comprised of Base Rate Advances hereunder and shall constitute part of the Obligations.

- 73 -

accounts maintained with, and all cash and Cash Equivalents held by, such Lender; (d) subject to the direction of the Required Lenders, manage, supervise or otherwise deal with the Collateral; and (e) except as may be otherwise specifically restricted by the terms of this Agreement and subject to the direction of the Required Lenders, exercise all remedies given to the Administrative Agent with respect to the Borrower or any of the Collateral under the Loan Documents relating thereto, Applicable Law or otherwise. The duties of the Administrative Agent shall be ministerial and administrative in nature, and the Administrative Agent shall not have by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document a fiduciary relationship with any Lender (or any Lender’s participants). Unless and until its authority to do so is revoked in writing by Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent alone shall be authorized to determine whether any Receivables or Inventory constitute Eligible Receivables or Eligible Inventory (basing such determination in each case upon the meanings given to such terms in Section 1), or whether to impose or release any reserve, and to exercise its own judgment in connection therewith, which determinations and judgments, if exercised in good faith, shall exonerate the Administrative Agent from any liability to Lenders or any other Person for any errors in judgment.

(b) The Administrative Agent (which term, as used in this sentence, shall include reference to the Administrative Agent’s officers, directors, employees, attorneys, agents and Affiliates and to the officers, directors, employees, attorneys and agents of the Administrative Agent’s Affiliates) shall not: (a) have any duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or (b) be required to take, initiate or conduct any Enforcement Action (including any litigation, foreclosure or collection proceedings hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents) except to the extent directed to do so in writing by the Required Lenders during the continuance of any Event of Default. The conferral upon the Administrative Agent of any right hereunder shall not imply a duty on the Administrative Agent’s part to exercise any such right unless instructed to do so by the Required Lenders in accordance with this Agreement.

(c) The Administrative Agent may perform any of its duties by or through its agents and employees and may employ one or more the Administrative Agent Professionals and shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any such the Administrative Agent Professionals selected by it with reasonable care. Borrower shall promptly (and in any event, on demand) reimburse the Administrative Agent for all reasonable expenses (including all Extraordinary Expenses) incurred by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any of the provisions hereof or of any of the other Loan Documents or in the execution of any of the Administrative Agent’s duties hereby or thereby created or in the exercise of any right or power herein or therein imposed or conferred upon it or Lenders (excluding, however, general overhead expenses), and each Lender agrees promptly to pay to the Administrative Agent, on demand, such Lender’s Pro Rata share of any such reimbursement for expenses (including Extraordinary Expenses) that is not timely made by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent.

If the Administrative Agent shall request instructions from the

- 74 -

Required Lenders with respect to any act or action (including the failure to act) in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such act or taking such action unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received instructions from the Required Lenders; and the Administrative Agent shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Administrative Agent as a result of the Administrative Agent acting or refraining from acting hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents pursuant to or in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders except for the Administrative Agent’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with any action taken by it. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that is in its opinion contrary to Applicable Law or the terms of any of the Loan Documents or that would in its reasonable opinion subject it or any of its officers, employees or directors to personal liability.

(e) The Administrative Agent shall promptly, upon receipt thereof, forward to each Lender (i) copies of any significant written notices, reports, certificates and other information received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower (but only if and to the extent the Borrower is not required by the terms of the Loan Documents to supply such information directly to Lenders) and (ii) copies of the results of any field audits or other examinations made or prepared by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent with respect to the Borrower or the Collateral (each, a “Report” and collectively, “Reports”).

SECTION 9.2 Agreements Regarding Collateral and Examination Reports.

(a) Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to release any Lien with respect to any Collateral (i) upon the termination of the Commitments and Full Payment of the Obligations, (ii) with the written consent of all Lenders, or (iii) in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.7 hereof. The Administrative Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any of the Lenders to assure that any of the Collateral exists or is owned by the Borrower or is cared for, protected or insured or has been encumbered, or that the Administrative Agent’s Liens have been properly, sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority or to exercise any duty of care with respect to any of the Collateral.

(b) The Administrative Agent and Lenders each hereby appoints each other Lender as agent for the purpose of perfecting Liens (for the benefit of Secured Parties) in any Collateral that, in accordance with the UCC or any other Applicable Law, can be perfected only by possession. Should any Lender obtain possession of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof, and, promptly upon the Administrative Agent’s request therefor, shall deliver such Collateral to the Administrative Agent or otherwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s instructions.

(c) Each Lender agrees that neither BofA nor the Administrative Agent makes any representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of any Report and shall not be liable for any information contained in or omitted from any such Report; agrees that the Reports are not intended to be comprehensive audits or examinations and that BofA or the

- 75 -

Administrative Agent or any other Person performing any audit or examination will inspect only specific information regarding Obligations or the Collateral and will rely significantly upon Borrower’s books and records as well as upon representations of Borrower’ officers and employees; agrees to keep all Reports confidential and strictly for its internal use and not to distribute the Reports (or the contents thereof) to any Person (except to its Participants, attorneys, accountants and other Persons with whom such Lender has a confidential relationship) or use any Report in any other manner; and, without limiting the generality of any other indemnification contained herein, agrees to hold the Administrative Agent and any other Person preparing a Report harmless from any action that the indemnifying Lender may take or conclusion the indemnifying Lender may reach or draw from any Report in connection with any Loans or other credit accommodations that the indemnifying Lender has made or may make to the Borrower, or the indemnifying Lender’s participation in, or its purchase of, a loan or loans of the Borrower, and to pay and protect, and indemnify, defend and hold the Administrative Agent and each other such Person preparing a Report harmless from and against all claims, actions, proceedings, damages, costs, expenses and other amounts (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Administrative Agent and any such other Person preparing a Report as the direct or indirect result of any third parties who might obtain all or any part of any Report through the indemnifying Lender.

SECTION 9.3 Reliance By The Administrative Agent. The Lenders agree the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in so relying, upon any certification, notice or other communication (including any thereof by telephone, telex, telegram, telecopier message or cable) believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by or on behalf of the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of the Administrative Agent Professionals selected by the Administrative Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may rely upon any Notice of Borrowing, LC Request, Notice of Conversion/Continuation or any similar notice or request believed by the Administrative Agent to be genuine. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting hereunder and thereunder in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders, and such instructions of the Required Lenders and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon Lenders.

SECTION 9.4 Action Upon Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default unless it has received written notice from a Lender or the Borrower specifying the occurrence and nature of such Default or Event of Default. If the Administrative Agent shall receive such a notice of a Default or an Event of Default or shall otherwise acquire actual knowledge of any Default or Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Lenders and the Administrative Agent may (and shall upon written direction of the Required Lenders) take such action and assert such rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as the Administrative Agent shall deem necessary or appropriate, or shall refrain from taking such action and asserting such rights, as the Required Lenders shall direct in writing from time to time. If any Lender shall receive a notice of a Default or an Event of Default or shall otherwise acquire actual knowledge of any Default or Event of Default, such Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders in writing. As provided in Section 9.3, the Administrative Agent shall not

- 76 -

be subject to any liability by reason of acting or refraining to act pursuant to any request of the Required Lenders except for its own willful misconduct or gross negligence in connection with any action taken by it. In no event shall the Required Lenders, without the prior written consent of each Lender, direct the Administrative Agent to accelerate and demand payment of the Loans held by one Lender without accelerating and demanding payment of all other Loans or to terminate the Commitments of one or more Lenders without terminating the Commitments of all Lenders. Each Lender agrees that, except as otherwise provided in any of the Loan Documents or with the written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders, it will not take any legal action or institute any action or proceeding against the Borrower with respect to any of the Obligations or Collateral or accelerate or otherwise enforce its portion of the Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, none of Lenders may exercise any right that it might otherwise have under Applicable Law to credit bid at foreclosure sales, UCC sales or other similar sales or dispositions of any of the Collateral except as authorized by the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 9.4 or elsewhere in this Agreement, each Lender shall be authorized to take such action to preserve or enforce its rights against the Borrower where a deadline or limitation period is otherwise applicable and would, absent the taking of specified action, bar the enforcement of Obligations held by such Lender against the Borrower, including the filing of proofs of claim in any Insolvency Proceeding.

SECTION 9.5 Ratable Sharing. If any Lender shall obtain any payment or reduction (including any amounts received as adequate protection of a bank account deposit treated as cash collateral under the Bankruptcy Code) of any Obligations of the Borrower (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off or otherwise) in excess of its Pro Rata share of payments or reductions on account of such Obligations obtained by all of the Lenders, such Lender shall forthwith (i) notify the other Lenders and the Administrative Agent of such receipt and (ii) purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the affected Obligations as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment or reduction, net of costs incurred in connection therewith, on a Pro Rata basis, provided that if all or any portion of such excess payment or reduction is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender or additional costs are incurred, the purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery or such additional costs, but without interest. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 9.5 may, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, exercise all of its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

SECTION 9.6 Indemnification of the Agent Indemnitees.

(a) Each Lender agrees to indemnify and defend Agent Indemnitees (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower, but without limiting the indemnification obligations of the Borrower under any of the Loan Documents), on a Pro Rata basis, and to hold each of Agent Indemnitees harmless from and against, any and all Claims which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any of Agent Indemnitees in any way related to or arising out of any of the Loan Documents or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated thereby (including the costs and expenses which the Borrower is obligated to pay under

- 77 -

Section 10.4 or amounts the Administrative Agent may be called upon to pay in connection with any lockbox or Dominion Account arrangement contemplated hereby or the enforcement of any of the terms of any Loan Documents).

(b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.6, if the Administrative Agent should be sued by any receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession or other Person on account of any alleged preference or fraudulent transfer received or alleged to have been received from the Borrower as the result of any transaction under the Loan Documents, then in such event any monies paid by the Administrative Agent in settlement or satisfaction of such suit, together with all Extraordinary Expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent in the defense of same, shall be promptly reimbursed to the Administrative Agent by Lenders to the extent of each Lender’s Pro Rata share.

(c) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.6, if at any time (whether prior to or after the Expiration Date) any action or proceeding shall be brought against any of Agent Indemnitees by the Borrower or by any other Person claiming by, through or under the Borrower, to recover damages for any act taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under any of the Loan Documents or in the performance of any rights, powers or remedies of the Administrative Agent against the Borrower, any Account Debtor, the Collateral or with respect to any Loans, or to obtain any other relief of any kind on account of any transaction involving any Agent Indemnitees under or in relation to any of the Loan Documents, each Lender agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Agent Indemnitees harmless with respect thereto and to pay to Agent Indemnitees such Lender’s Pro Rata share of such amount as any of Agent Indemnitees shall be required to pay by reason of a judgment, decree, or other order entered in such action or proceeding or by reason of any compromise or settlement agreed to by Agent Indemnitees, including all interest and costs assessed against any of Agent Indemnitees in defending or compromising such action, together with attorneys’ fees and other legal expenses paid or incurred by Agent Indemnitees in connection therewith; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable to any Agent Indemnitee for any of the foregoing to the extent that they arise solely from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Agent Indemnitee. In the Administrative Agent’s discretion, the Administrative Agent may also reserve for or satisfy any such judgment, decree or order from proceeds of Collateral prior to any distributions therefrom to or for the account of Lenders.

SECTION 9.7 Limitation on Responsibilities of the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to act hereunder unless it shall have received further assurances to its satisfaction from Lenders of their indemnification obligations under Section 9.6 against any and all indemnified Claims which may be incurred by the Administrative Agent by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable to Lenders for any action taken or omitted to be taken under or in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents except as a result and to the extent of losses caused by the Administrative Agent’s actual gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent does not assume any responsibility for any failure or delay in performance or breach by the Borrower or any Lender of its obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent does not make to Lenders, and no Lender makes to the Administrative Agent or the other Lenders, any express or

- 78 -

implied warranty, representation or guarantee with respect to the Obligations, the Collateral, the Loan Documents or the Borrower. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, attorneys or agents shall be responsible to Lenders, and no Lender nor any of its agents, attorneys or employees shall be responsible to the Administrative Agent or the other Lenders, for: (i) any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties contained in any of the Loan Documents or in any certificate or other document furnished pursuant to the terms hereof; (ii) the execution, validity, genuineness, effectiveness or enforceability of any of the Loan Documents; (iii) the genuineness, enforceability, collectibility, value, sufficiency, location or existence of any Collateral, or the validity, extent, perfection or priority of any Lien therein; (iv) the validity, enforceability or collectibility of any the Obligations; or (v) the assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations, business, creditworthiness or legal status of the Borrower or any Account Debtor. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, attorneys or agents shall have any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or inquire into the existence of any Default or Event of Default, the observance or performance by the Borrower of any of the duties or agreements of the Borrower under any of the Loan Documents or the satisfaction of any conditions precedent contained in any of the Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent may consult with and employ legal counsel, accountants and other experts and shall be entitled to act upon, and shall be fully protected in any action taken in good faith reliance upon, any advice given by such experts.

SECTION 9.8 Successor Administrative Agent and Co-Agents.

(a) Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor to the Administrative Agent as provided below, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving at least 30 days written notice thereof to each Lender and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any notice of such resignation, the Required Lenders, after prior consultation with (but without having to obtain consent of) each Lender, shall have the right to appoint a successor to the Administrative Agent which shall be (i) a Lender, (ii) a United States based affiliate of a Lender, or (iii) a commercial bank that is organized under the laws of the United States or of any State thereof and has a combined capital surplus of at least $500,000,000 and, provided no Default or Event of Default then exists, is reasonably acceptable to Borrower (and for purposes hereof, any Person referred to in the last sentence of this Section 9.8(a) as a successor to BofA shall be deemed acceptable to the Borrower). If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of the Administrative Agent, then the Administrative Agent may appoint, after consultation with Lenders and the Borrower, a successor agent from among Lenders. Upon the acceptance by a successor the Administrative Agent of an appointment to serve as the Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor the Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring the Administrative Agent without further act, deed or conveyance, and the retiring the Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder but shall continue to enjoy the benefits of the indemnification set forth in Sections 9.6. After any retiring the Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as the Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article IX (including the provisions of Section 9.6) shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this

- 79 -

Agreement, any successor by merger or acquisition of the stock or assets of BofA shall continue to be the Administrative Agent hereunder without further act on the part of the parties hereto unless such successor shall resign in accordance with the provisions hereof.

(b) It is the intent of the parties that there shall be no violation of any Applicable Law denying or restricting the right of financial institutions to transact business as agent or otherwise in any jurisdiction. In case of litigation under any of the Loan Documents, or in case the Administrative Agent deems that by reason of present or future laws of any jurisdiction the Administrative Agent might be prohibited from exercising any of the powers, rights or remedies granted to the Administrative Agent or Lenders hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents or from holding title to or a Lien upon any Collateral or from taking any other action which may be necessary hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent may appoint an additional Person as a separate collateral agent or co-collateral agent which is not so prohibited from taking any of such actions or exercising any of such powers, rights or remedies. If the Administrative Agent shall appoint an additional Person as a separate collateral agent or co-collateral agent as provided above, each and every remedy, power, right, claim, demand or cause of action intended by any of the Loan Documents to be exercised by or vested in or conveyed to the Administrative Agent with respect thereto shall be exercisable by and vested in such separate collateral agent or co-collateral agent, but only to the extent necessary to enable such separate collateral agent or co-collateral agent to exercise such powers, rights and remedies, and every covenant and obligation necessary to the exercise thereof by such separate collateral agent or co-collateral agent shall run to and be enforceable by either of them. Should any instrument from Lenders be required by the separate collateral agent or co-collateral agent so appointed by the Administrative Agent in order more fully and certainly to vest in and confirm to him or it such rights, powers, duties and obligations, any and all of such instruments shall, on request, be executed, acknowledged and delivered by Lenders whether or not a Default or Event of Default then exists. In case any separate collateral agent or co-collateral agent, or a successor to either, shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all the estates, properties, rights, powers, duties and obligations of such separate collateral agent or co-collateral agent, so far as permitted by Applicable Law, shall vest in and be exercised by the Administrative Agent until the appointment of a new collateral agent or successor to such separate collateral agent or co-collateral agent.

SECTION 9.9 Consents, Amendments and Waivers.

(a) No amendment or modification of any provision of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, nor any waiver of any Default or Event of Default, shall be effective without the prior written agreement or consent of the Required Lenders; provided, however, that

(i) without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, no amendment or waiver shall be effective with respect to any provision in any of the Loan Documents (including Section 10.4 and this Section 9.9) to the extent such provision relates to the rights, duties, immunities, exculpation, indemnification or discretion of the Administrative Agent;

- 80 -

(ii) without the prior written consent of Issuing Bank, no amendment or waiver with respect to any of the LC Obligations or the provisions of Sections 2.2 or 5.2(d) shall be effective;

(iii) without the prior written consent of each affected Lender, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, no amendment or waiver shall be effective that would (1) increase or otherwise modify any Commitment of such Lender (other than to reduce such Lender’s Commitment on a proportionate basis with the same Commitments of other Lenders); (2) alter (other than to increase) the rate of interest payable in respect of any Obligations owed to such Lender; (3) waive any interest or fee payable to such Lender pursuant to Section 3; or (4) subordinate the payment of any Obligations owed to such Lender to the payment of any Indebtedness; and

(iv) without the prior written consent of all Lenders, no amendment or waiver shall be effective that would (1) waive any Default or Event of Default if the Default or Event of Default relates to the Borrower’s failure to observe or perform any covenant that may not be amended without the unanimous written consent of Lenders (and, where so provided hereinafter, the written consent of the Administrative Agent) as hereinafter set forth; (2) change the number of Lenders that shall be required for the Lenders or any of them to take any action hereunder; (3) amend the definition of “Required Lenders”; (4) amend this Section 9.9; (5) reduce the amount of principal of, or interest on, or the interest rate applicable to, the Loans or any fees payable hereunder; (6) postpone any date on which any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Loans or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder is required to be made; (7) release all or substantially all the Collateral; or (8) amend the definition of “Borrowing Base” if the effect thereof would be to increase the amount of Revolving Credit Loans available to the Borrower or amend the definitions of “Availability Block” or “Excess Availability”.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the consent or agreement of the Borrower shall not be necessary to the effectiveness of any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement that deals solely with the rights and duties of Lenders and the Administrative Agent as among themselves, including Section 2.9(d) and Article IX. The making of any Loans hereunder by any Lender during the existence of a Default or Event of Default shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver of such Default or Event of Default. Any waiver or consent granted by Lenders hereunder shall be effective only if in writing and then only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given.

(b) Borrower will not, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any remuneration or other thing of value, whether by way of supplemental or additional interest, fee or otherwise, to any Lender (in its capacity as a Lender hereunder) as consideration for or as an inducement to the consent to or agreement by such Lender with any waiver or amendment of any of the terms and provisions of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, unless such remuneration or thing of value is concurrently paid, on the same terms, on a Pro Rata or other mutually agreed upon basis to all Lenders; provided, however, that the Borrower may contract to pay a fee only to those Lenders who actually vote in writing to approve any waiver or amendment of the terms and provisions of this Agreement or any of the other Loan

- 81 -

Documents to the extent that such waiver or amendment may be implemented by vote of the Required Lenders and such waiver or amendment is in fact approved.

(c) Any request, authority or consent of any Person who, at the time of making such request or giving such a authority or consent, is a Lender, shall be conclusive and binding upon any Transferee of such Lender.

SECTION 9.10 Due Diligence and Non-Reliance. Each Lender hereby acknowledges and represents that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or the other Lenders, and based upon such documents, information and analyses as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis of the Borrower and its own decision to enter into this Agreement, to fund the Loans to be made by it, issue Letters of Credit and purchase participations in the LC Obligations pursuant to Section 2.2, and each Lender has made such inquiries concerning the Loan Documents, the Collateral and the Borrower as such Lender feels necessary and appropriate, and has taken such care on its own behalf as would have been the case had it entered into the other Loan Documents without the intervention or participation of the other Lenders or the Administrative Agent. Each Lender hereby further acknowledges and represents that the other Lenders and the Administrative Agent have not made any representations or warranties to it concerning the Borrower, any of the Collateral or the legality, validity, sufficiency or enforceability of any of the Loan Documents. Each Lender also hereby acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the other Lenders or the Administrative Agent, and based upon such financial statements, documents and information as it deems appropriate at the time, continue to make and rely upon its own credit decisions in making Loans and in taking or refraining to take any other action under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. Except for notices, reports and other information expressly required to be furnished to Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any notices, reports or certificates furnished to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or any credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition, business or Properties of the Borrower (or any of its Affiliates) which may come into possession of the Administrative Agent or any of the Administrative Agent’s Affiliates.

SECTION 9.11 Representations and Warranties of Lenders. Each Lender represents and warrants to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders that it has the power to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and that it has taken all necessary and appropriate action to authorize its execution and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, each of which will be binding upon it and the obligations imposed upon it herein or therein will be enforceable against it in accordance with the respective terms of such documents; and none of the consideration used by it to make or fund its Loans or to participate in any other transactions under this Agreement constitutes for any purpose of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code assets of any “plan” as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code and the rights and interests of such Lender in and under the Loan Documents shall not constitute plan assets under ERISA.

- 82 -

SECTION 9.12 The Required Lenders. As to any provisions of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents under which action may or is required to be taken upon direction or approval of the Required Lenders, the direction or approval of the Required Lenders shall be binding upon each Lender to the same extent and with the same effect as if each Lender joined therein. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Borrower shall not be deemed to be a beneficiary of, or be entitled to enforce, xxx upon or assert as a defense to any of the Obligations, any provisions of this Agreement that requires the Administrative Agent or any Lender to act, or conditions their authority to act, upon the direction or consent of the Required Lenders; and any action taken by the Administrative Agent or any Lender that requires the consent or direction of the Required Lenders as a condition to taking such action shall, insofar as the Borrower is concerned, be presumed to have been taken with the requisite consent or direction of the Required Lenders.

SECTION 9.13 Several Obligations. The obligations and Commitment of each Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are several and neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be responsible for the performance by the other Lenders of its obligations or Commitment hereunder or thereunder. Notwithstanding any liability of Lenders stated to be joint and several to third Persons under any of the Loan Documents, such liability shall be shared, as among Lenders, Pro Rata.

SECTION 9.14 Administrative Agent in its Individual Capacity. With respect to its obligation to lend under this Agreement, the Loans made by it and each Note issued to it, the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder and under the other Loan Documents as any other Lender or holder of a Note and may exercise the same as though it were not performing the duties specified herein; and the terms “Lenders,” “Required Lenders,” or any similar term shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include the Administrative Agent in its capacity as a Lender. The Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may each accept deposits from, maintain deposits or credit balances for, invest in, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, serve as financial advisor to, and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Affiliate of the Borrower, as if it were any other bank and without any duty to account therefor (or for any fees or other consideration received in connection therewith) to the other Lenders. BofA or its Affiliates may receive information regarding the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates and Account Debtors (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of the Borrower or any of their Affiliates) and Lenders acknowledge that neither the Administrative Agent nor BofA shall be under any obligation to provide such information to Lenders to the extent acquired by BofA in its individual capacity and not as the Administrative Agent hereunder.

SECTION 9.15 No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Article IX is not intended to confer any rights or benefits upon the Borrower or any other Person except the Administrative Agent and Lenders , and no Person (including the Borrower) other than the Administrative Agent and Lenders shall have any right to enforce any of the provisions of this Article IX except as expressly provided in Section 9.1. As between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, any action that the Administrative Agent may take or purport to take on behalf of Lenders under any of the Loan Documents shall be conclusively presumed to have been authorized and approved by Lenders as herein provided.

- 83 -

SECTION 9.16 Notice of Transfer. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat a Lender party to this Agreement as the owner of such Lender’s portion of the Revolving Credit Loans for all purposes, unless and until a written notice of the assignment or transfer thereof executed by such Lender has been received by the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 9.17 Replacement of Certain Lenders. If a Lender (“Non-Consenting Lender”) shall have (i) failed to fund its Pro Rata share of any Loan requested (or deemed requested) by the Borrower which such Lender is obligated to fund under the terms of this Agreement and which such failure has not been cured within 2 Business Days, (ii) requested compensation from the Borrower under Section 4.6 to recover increased costs incurred by such Lender (or its parent or holding company) which are not being incurred generally by the other Lenders (or their respective parents or holding companies), (iii) delivered a notice pursuant to Section 2.3(d) claiming that such Lender is unable to extend LIBOR Rate Advances to Borrower for reasons not generally applicable to the other Lenders, (iv) delivered a notice pursuant to Section 4.7(h) (and such Lender is a Foreign Lender), (v) defaulted in paying or performing any of its obligations to the Administrative Agent, or (vi) failed (within 5 Business Days after the Administrative Agent’s request) or refused to give its consent to any amendment, waiver or action for which consent of all of the Lenders is required and in respect of which the Required Lenders have consented, then, in any such case and in addition to any other rights and remedies that the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or the Borrower may have against such Non-Consenting Lender, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent may make written demand on such Non-Consenting Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent in the case of a demand by the Borrower and a copy to the Borrower in the case of a demand by the Administrative Agent) for the Non-Consenting Lender to assign, and such Non-Consenting Lender shall assign pursuant to one or more duly executed Assignment and Acceptances within 5 Business Days after the date of such demand, to one or more Lenders willing to accept such assignment or assignments, or to one or more Eligible Assignees designated by the Administrative Agent, all of such Non-Consenting Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including its Revolver Commitment and all Loans owing to it) in accordance with Section 11.3. The Administrative Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized to execute one or more Assignment and Acceptances as attorney-in-fact for any Non-Consenting Lender which fails or refuses to execute and deliver the same within 5 Business Days after the date of such demand. The Non-Consenting Lender shall be entitled to receive, in cash and concurrently with execution and delivery of each such Assignment and Acceptance, all amounts then owed to the Non-Consenting Lender by the Borrower hereunder, including the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans owed to such Lender, together with accrued interest thereon through the date of such assignment (but excluding amounts otherwise then due and payable under Section 4.6). Upon the replacement of any Non-Consenting Lender pursuant to this Section 9.17, such Non-Consenting Lender shall cease to have any participation in, entitlement to, or other right to share in the Liens of the Administrative Agent in any Collateral and such Non-Consenting Lender shall have no further liability to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person under any of the Loan Documents (except as provided in Section 9.6 as to events or transactions which occur prior to the replacement of such Non-Consenting Lender), including any commitment to make Loans or purchase participations in LC Obligations. The Administrative Agent shall have the right at any time, but shall not be obligated to, upon written

- 84 -

notice to any Lender and with the consent of such Lender (which may be granted or withheld in such Lender’s discretion), to purchase for the Administrative Agent’s own account all of such Lender’s right, title and interest in and to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the Obligations (together with such Lender’s interest in the Commitments), for the face amount of the Obligations owed to such Lender (or such greater or lesser amount as the Administrative Agent and such Lender may mutually agree upon).

SECTION 9.18 Remittance of Payments and Collections.

(a) All payments by any Lender to the Administrative Agent shall be made not later than the time set forth elsewhere in this Agreement on the Business Day such payment is due; provided, however, that if such payment is due on demand by the Administrative Agent and such demand is made on the paying Lender after 11:00 a.m. on such Business Day, then payment shall be made by 11:00 a.m. on the next Business Day. Payment by the Administrative Agent to any Lender shall be made by wire transfer, promptly following the Administrative Agent’s receipt of funds for the account of such Lender and in the type of funds received by the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that if the Administrative Agent receives such funds at or prior to 12:00 noon, the Administrative Agent shall pay such funds to such Lender by 2:00 p.m. on such Business Day, but if the Administrative Agent receives such funds after 12:00 noon, the Administrative Agent shall pay such funds to such Lender by 2:00 p.m. on the next Business Day.

(b) With respect to the payment of any funds from the Administrative Agent to a Lender or from a Lender to the Administrative Agent, the party failing to make full payment when due pursuant to the terms hereof shall, on demand by the other party, pay such amount together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate. In no event shall the Borrower be entitled to receive any credit for any interest paid by the Administrative Agent to any Lender, or by any Lender to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate as provided herein.

If the Administrative Agent pays any amount to a Lender in the belief or expectation that a related payment has been or will be received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower and such related payment is not received by the Administrative Agent, then the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount from each Lender that receives such amount. If the Administrative Agent determines at any time that any amount received by it under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents must be returned to the Borrower or paid to any other Person pursuant to any Applicable Law, court order or otherwise, then, notwithstanding any other term or condition of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to distribute such amount to any Lender.

The Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be authorized to rely and act upon any notices (including telephonic communications) purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower even if such notices were made in a manner other than as specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified or required herein, or the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof.

- 86 -

SECTION 10.2 Delays; Partial Exercise of Remedies. No delay or omission of any party hereto to exercise any right or remedy hereunder shall impair any such right or operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise by any party hereto of any right or remedy shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof, or preclude any other right or remedy.

In addition to and not in limitation of all rights of offset that the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates may have under Applicable Law, while an Event of Default is continuing, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and their respective Affiliates shall have the right to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, or any other type) at any time held and any other Indebtedness at any time owing by the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or any of their respective Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or the Borrower’s Subsidiaries against any and all of the Obligations. In the event that the Administrative Agent or any Lender exercises any of its rights under this Section 10.3, the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall provide notice to the Borrower of such exercise, provided that, without prejudice to the Borrower’s right to assert a claim for any damages it may incur as a result of any failure by the Administrative Agent or such Lender to give such notice, the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of the exercise of such rights.

SECTION 10.4 Indemnification; Reimbursement of Expenses of Collection.

(a) The Borrower hereby agrees that, whether or not any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or the Fee Letter are consummated, the Borrower will (other than with respect to the Fee Letter, except with respect to the obligation to pay the Agency Fee, as defined therein) indemnify, defend and hold harmless (on an after-tax basis) the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and their respective Affiliates (including BAS), successors, assigns, directors, officers, agents, employees, advisors, shareholders and attorneys (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, deficiencies, obligations, fines, penalties, actions (whether threatened or existing), judgments, suits (whether threatened or existing) or expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel, experts, consultants and other professionals) incurred by any of them (collectively, “Claims”) (except, in the case of each Indemnified Party, to the extent that any Claim is determined in a final and non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have directly resulted from such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct) arising out of or by reason of (i) any litigation, investigation, claim or proceeding related to (A) this Agreement, any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (B) any actual or proposed use by the Borrower of the proceeds of the Loans or (C) the Administrative Agent’s, any Lender’s or BAS’ entering into this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other agreements and documents (other than the Fee Letter) relating hereto (other than consequential damages and loss of anticipated profits or earnings), including amounts paid in settlement (provided that any such settlement has been approved by the Borrower), court costs and the fees and disbursements of counsel incurred in connection with any such litigation, investigation, claim or proceeding, (ii) any remedial or other action taken or required to be taken by the Borrower in connection with compliance by the Borrower, or any of its properties, with any federal, state or local Environmental Laws and (iii) any pending, threatened or actual action, claim, proceeding or suit by any shareholder or director of the Borrower or any actual or

purported violation of the Borrower’s Governing Documents or any other agreement or instrument to which the Borrower is a party or by which any of its properties is bound. Promptly after receipt of any Claim by a third party against an Indemnified Party which may result in an entitlement to indemnification under this paragraph, the Administrative Agent or Indemnified Party shall send a copy thereof to the Borrower, and Borrower shall have the right to defend such claim at its expense with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, as long as such defense is being expeditiously conducted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure to promptly give such notice shall not negate or impair the Borrower’s indemnification obligations hereunder, but shall give Borrower the right to offset against any indemnification payment required to be made by it hereunder with respect to such Claim an amount equal to any damages caused to the Borrower by the failure to give such prompt notice. Neither the Borrower nor any Indemnified Party shall settle any third party Claim without the prior written consent of the other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. In addition, the Borrower shall, upon demand, pay to the Administrative Agent all costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and other professionals) in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification and amendment of the Loan Documents, and pay to the Administrative Agent, each Lender and BAS, as the case may be, all costs and expenses (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and other professionals) paid or incurred by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or BAS in (A) enforcing or defending its rights under or in respect of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other document or instrument (other than the Fee Letter, except with respect to the obligation to pay the Agency Fee, as defined therein) now or hereafter executed and delivered in connection herewith, (B) collecting the Obligations or otherwise administering this Agreement and (C) foreclosing or otherwise realizing upon the Collateral or any part thereof. If and to the extent that the obligations of the Borrower hereunder are unenforceable for any reason, the Borrower hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of such obligations that is permissible under Applicable Law.

(b) The Borrower shall reimburse the Administrative Agent for all Extraordinary Expenses. The Borrower shall also reimburse the Administrative Agent for all reasonable out-of-pocket legal, accounting, appraisal, consulting, and other fees, costs and expenses incurred by it in connection with (a) negotiation and preparation of any Loan Documents, including any amendment or other modification thereof; (b) proper enforcement actions relating to any Collateral, Loan Documents and transactions contemplated thereby, including any actions taken to perfect or maintain priority of the Administrative Agent’s Liens on any Collateral, to maintain any insurance required hereunder or to verify Collateral; and (c) subject to the limits of Section 7.1(g), each inspection, audit or appraisal with respect to the Borrower or Collateral, whether prepared by the Administrative Agent’s personnel or a third party. All amounts reimbursable by the Borrower under this Section shall constitute Obligations secured by the Collateral and shall be payable within 10 days (5 days, in the case of reimbursement for appraisal or Collateral inspection costs and expenses) after demand, therefor, accompanied by reasonably detailed descriptions of the fees, costs and expenses for which reimbursement is demanded.

- 88 -

(c) The Borrower’s obligations under Sections 4.6 and 4.7 and this Section 10.4 shall survive any termination of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the termination and the payment in full of the Obligations, and are in addition to, and not in substitution of, any of the other Obligations.

SECTION 10.5 Nonliability of the Administrative Agent and Lenders. The relationship among the Borrower and each Lender shall be solely that of borrower and lender. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any fiduciary responsibilities to the Borrower. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender undertakes any responsibility to the Borrower to review or inform the Borrower of any matter in connection with any phase of the Borrower’ business or operations.

SECTION 10.6 Counterparts; Telecopied Signatures. This Agreement and any waiver or amendment hereto may be executed in counterparts and by the parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents may be executed and delivered by telecopier or other facsimile transmission all with the same force and effect as if the same was a fully executed and delivered original manual counterpart.

SECTION 10.7 Severability. In case any provision in or obligation under this Agreement, any Note or any other Loan Document shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

SECTION 10.8 Maximum Rate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, the parties hereto hereby agree that all agreements between them under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether written or oral, are expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever shall the amount paid, or agreed to be paid, to the Administrative Agent or any Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention of the money loaned to the Borrower and evidenced hereby or thereby or for the performance or payment of any covenant or obligation contained herein or therein, exceed the maximum non-usurious interest rate, if any, that at any time or from time to time may be contracted for, taken, reserved, charged or received on the Obligations, under the laws of the State of New York (or the laws of any other jurisdiction whose laws may be mandatorily applicable notwithstanding other provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents), or under applicable federal laws which may presently or hereafter be in effect and which allow a higher maximum non-usurious interest rate than under the laws of the State of New York (or such other jurisdiction), in any case after taking into account, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, any and all relevant payments or charges under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents executed in connection herewith, and any available exemptions, exceptions and exclusions (the “Highest Lawful Rate”). If due to any circumstance whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents at the time performance of such provision shall be due shall exceed the Highest Lawful Rate, then, automatically, the obligation to be fulfilled shall be modified or reduced to

- 89 -

the extent necessary to limit such interest to the Highest Lawful Rate, and if from any such circumstance any Lender should ever receive anything of value deemed interest by Applicable Law which would exceed the Highest Lawful Rate, such excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the principal amount then outstanding hereunder or on account of any other then outstanding Obligations and not to the payment of interest, or if such excessive interest exceeds the principal unpaid balance then outstanding hereunder and such other then outstanding Obligations, such excess shall be refunded to the Borrower. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to the Lenders for the use, forbearance, or detention of the Obligations and other Indebtedness of the Borrower to the Lenders shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full term of such Indebtedness, until payment in full thereof, so that the actual rate of interest on account of all such Indebtedness does not exceed the Highest Lawful Rate throughout the entire term of such Indebtedness. The terms and provisions of this Section shall control every other provision of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and all other agreements among the parties hereto.

SECTION 10.9 Entire Agreement; Interpretation. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire agreement among the parties, supersede any prior written and verbal agreements among them. This Agreement shall be deemed to have been jointly drafted, and no provision of it shall be interpreted or construed for or against a party because such party purportedly prepared or requested such provision, any other provision, or this Agreement as a whole.

SECTION 10.10 LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. NEITHER THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT NOR ANY LENDER SHALL HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO THE BORROWER (WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR EQUITY OR OTHERWISE) FOR LOSSES SUFFERED BY THE BORROWER IN CONNECTION WITH, ARISING OUT OF, OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO THE TRANSACTIONS OR RELATIONSHIPS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT, OR ANY ACT, OMISSION OR EVENT OCCURRING IN CONNECTION THEREWITH, UNLESS IT IS DETERMINED BY A FINAL AND NONAPPEALABLE JUDGMENT OR COURT ORDER BINDING ON THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR SUCH LENDER THAT THE LOSSES WERE THE RESULT OF ACTS OR OMISSIONS CONSTITUTING GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR SUCH LENDER. THE BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES ALL FUTURE CLAIMS AGAINST THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH LENDER FOR SPECIAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES.

SECTION 10.11 GOVERNING LAW. THE VALIDITY, INTERPRETATION AND ENFORCEMENT OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND ANY DISPUTE ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR EQUITY OR OTHERWISE, SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THE INTERNAL LAWS (AS OPPOSED TO THE CONFLICTS OF LAW PROVISIONS OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW) AND DECISIONS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

- 90 -

SECTION 10.12 SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION. ALL DISPUTES BETWEEN OR AMONG THE BORROWER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY LENDER BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF, OR IN ANY WAY RELATING TO (I) THIS AGREEMENT; (II) ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR OTHER PRESENT OR FUTURE INSTRUMENT OR AGREEMENT BETWEEN OR AMONG THE BORROWER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND A LENDER; OR (III) ANY CONDUCT, ACT OR OMISSION OF THE BORROWER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, A LENDER OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENTS, ATTORNEYS OR OTHER AFFILIATES, IN EACH CASE WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR EQUITY OR OTHERWISE, SHALL BE RESOLVED ONLY BY STATE AND FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED IN NEW YORK, NEW YORK AND THE COURTS TO WHICH AN APPEAL THEREFROM MAY BE TAKEN; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, TO PROCEED AGAINST THE BORROWER OR ITS PROPERTY IN (A) ANY COURTS OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION AND VENUE AND (B) ANY LOCATION SELECTED BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT TO ENABLE THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT TO REALIZE ON SUCH PROPERTY, OR TO ENFORCE A JUDGMENT OR OTHER COURT ORDER IN FAVOR OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. THE BORROWER AGREES THAT IT WILL NOT ASSERT ANY PERMISSIVE COUNTERCLAIMS, SETOFFS OR CROSS-CLAIMS IN ANY PROCEEDING BROUGHT BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. THE BORROWER WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY HAVE TO THE LOCATION OF THE COURT IN WHICH THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT HAS COMMENCED A PROCEEDING, INCLUDING ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OR BASED ON FORUM NON CONVENIENS.

SECTION 10.13 JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF, OR IN ANY WAY RELATING TO (I) THIS AGREEMENT; (II) ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR OTHER PRESENT OR FUTURE INSTRUMENT OR AGREEMENT BETWEEN OR AMONG THE BORROWER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND A LENDER; OR (III) ANY CONDUCT, ACT OR OMISSION OF THE BORROWER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, A LENDER OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENTS, ATTORNEYS OR OTHER AFFILIATES, IN EACH CASE WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR EQUITY OR OTHERWISE.

SECTION 10.14 Confidentiality.

(a) The Lenders and the Administrative Agent agree to keep confidential, in accordance with their customary procedures for handling confidential information of this nature and in accordance with safe and sound business practices, any information about the Borrower or any other Persons known by the Lender to be Affiliates of the Borrower supplied by the Borrower to, or otherwise learned from the Borrower, by the Lenders or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement (collectively, “Covered Information”), provided that (x) the

- 91 -

term Covered Information shall not include any information that is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure in breach of this Agreement (unless the Lender has reason to believe that such information became generally available to the public through a source that was not authorized by the Borrower or any Affiliate thereof to make such information available to the public), and (y) nothing herein shall limit the disclosure of any Covered Information (i) to the extent required by statute, rule, regulation or judicial process (subject to Section 10.14(b) below), (ii) to counsel for the Lenders, (iii) to bank examiners, auditors or accountants, (iv) in connection with any litigation to which any Lender is a party (subject to Section 10.14(b) below), (v) to a subsidiary or affiliate of any Lender as provided in paragraph (a) above or (vi) to any assignee or participant (or prospective assignee or participant) so long as the Borrower shall have consented to such Person becoming an assignee or participant and such Person first executes and delivers to the Lender a Confidentiality Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit K hereto.

(b) In the case of Sections 10.14(a)(y)(i) and (iv) above only, in the event that any Lender or the Administrative Agent is requested or required (by law, regulation, rule, oral questions, deposition, interrogatories, requests for information or documents in legal proceedings, subpoena, civil investigative demand or other similar process) to disclose any of the Covered Information, each such Person agrees (to the extent not prohibited from doing as a result of such law, regulation or legal process), as soon as practical, to notify the Borrower in writing of the existence, terms and circumstances of any such request or requirement so that the Borrower, at its expense, may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive compliance with the provisions of Section 10.14(a) with respect thereto. The Lenders and the Administrative Agent agree to reasonably cooperate with the Borrower, at the Borrower’s expense, in seeking such protective order or other appropriate remedy. If, in the absence of a protective order or other remedy or the receipt of a waiver by the Borrower, such person is nonetheless, in the view of counsel, legally required to disclose Covered Information, such Person may, without liability hereunder, disclose that portion of the Covered Information that such counsel advises such Person is legally required to be disclosed provided that such Person shall reasonably cooperate with the Borrower’s efforts, at the Borrower’s expense, to obtain an appropriate protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded the Covered Information so disclosed if such Affiliate, representative or agent has not delivered a Confidentiality Agreement to the Borrower.

(c) Each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall be responsible and liable for any act or conduct of its Affiliates, representatives or agents which shall be a breach of any Confidentiality Agreement or the confidentiality obligations in this Agreement.

ARTICLE XI
BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT; ASSIGNMENTS AND PARTICIPATIONS

SECTION 11.1 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Borrower, the Administrative Agent and Lenders and their respective successors and assigns (which, in the case of the Administrative Agent, shall include any successor Administrative Agent appointed pursuant to Section 9.8), except that (i) Borrower shall not have the right to assign its rights or delegate performance of any of its obligations under

- 92 -

any of the Loan Documents and (ii) any assignment by any Lender must be made in compliance with Section 11.3. The Administrative Agent may treat the Person which made any Loan or holds any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until such Person complies with Section 11.3 in the case of an assignment thereof or, in the case of any other transfer, a written notice of the transfer is filed with the Administrative Agent. Any assignee or transferee of any rights with respect to any Note or Loan agrees by acceptance thereof to be bound by all the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents. Any request, authority or consent of any Person, who at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent is the holder of a Note, shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, transferee or assignee of such Note or of any Note or Notes issued in exchange therefor.

SECTION 11.2 Participations.

(a) Permitted Participants; Effect. Any Lender may, in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with Applicable Law, at any time sell to one or more banks or other financial institutions (each a “Participant”) a participating interest in any of the Obligations owing to such Lender, any Commitment of such Lender or any other interest of such Lender under any of the Loan Documents. In the event of any such sale by a Lender of participating interests to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations under the Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, such Lender shall remain the holder of its Loans and Commitments for all purposes under the Loan Documents, all amounts payable by the Borrower under this Agreement and any of the Notes shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participating interests, and the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents. If a Lender sells a participation to a Person other than an Affiliate of such Lender, then such Lender shall give prompt written notice thereof to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of this Agreement unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to Participant and such Participant agrees in a written instrument reasonably acceptable to the Borrower, for the benefit of Borrower, to comply with Section 4.7 as though such Participant were a Lender, and such Participant complies with such Section 4.7.

(b) Voting Rights. Each Lender shall retain the sole right to approve, without the consent of any Participant, any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents.

(c) Notices. Each Lender shall be solely responsible for notifying its Participants of any matters relating to the Loan Documents to the extent that any such notice may be required, and neither the Administrative Agent, the Borrower nor any other Lender shall have any obligation, duty or liability to any Participant of any other Lender. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, neither the Administrative Agent, the Borrower nor any Lender shall have any obligation to give notices or to provide documents or information to a Participant of another Lender.

- 93 -

SECTION 11.3 Assignments.

(a) Permitted Assignments. Subject to its compliance with Section 11.3(b), a Lender may, in accordance with Applicable Law and, as long as no Event of Default is continuing, subject to the consent of the Borrower, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, at any time assign to any Eligible Assignee all or any part of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, so long as (i) each assignment is of a constant, and not a varying, ratable percentage of all of the transferor Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents with respect to the Loans and the LC Obligations and, in the case of a partial assignment, is in a minimum principal amount of $25,000,000 (unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower in their discretion) and integral multiples of $5,000,000 in excess of that amount; (ii) except in the case of an assignment in whole of a Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents or an assignment by one original signatory to this Agreement to another such signatory, immediately after giving effect to any assignment, the aggregate amount of the Commitments retained by the transferor Lender shall in no event be less than $25,000,000 (unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower in their discretion); and (iii) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording, an Assignment and Acceptance. Nothing contained herein shall limit in any way the right of a Lender to pledge or assign all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement or with respect to any of the Obligations to any Federal Reserve Bank or the United States Treasury as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of Governors and any Operating Circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank, provided that any payment by the Borrower to the assigning Lender in respect of any assigned Obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall satisfy the Borrower’s obligations hereunder in respect of such assigned Obligations to the extent of such payment, and no such assignment shall release the assigning Lender from its obligations hereunder.

(b) Effect; Effective Date. Upon (i) delivery to the Administrative Agent of a notice of assignment substantially in the form attached as Exhibit D hereto, together with any consents required by Section 11.3(a), and (ii) payment of a $3,500 fee to the Administrative Agent for processing any assignment to an Eligible Assignee that is not an Affiliate of the transferor Lender, such assignment shall become effective on the effective date specified in such notice of assignment. The Assignment and Acceptance shall contain a representation and warranty by the Eligible Assignee that the assignment evidenced thereby will not result in a non-exempt “prohibited transaction” under Section 406 of ERISA. On and after the effective date of such assignment, such Eligible Assignee shall for all purposes be a Lender party to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents executed by the Lenders and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Lender under the Loan Documents to the same extent as if it were an original party thereto, and no further consent or action by Borrower, Lenders or the Administrative Agent shall be required to release the transferor Lender with respect to the Commitment (or portion thereof) of such Lender and Obligations assigned to such Eligible Assignee. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, such Eligible Assignee shall be subject to and bound by all of the Loan Documents. Upon the consummation of any assignment to an Eligible Assignee pursuant to this Section 11.3, the transferor Lender, the Administrative Agent and Borrower shall make appropriate arrangements so that replacement Notes are issued

- 94 -

to such transferor Lender and new Notes or, as appropriate, replacement Notes, are issued to such Eligible Assignee, in each case in principal amounts reflecting their respective Commitments, as adjusted pursuant to such assignment. If the transferor Lender shall have assigned all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement pursuant to Section 11.3(a), then (i) such transferor Lender shall no longer have any obligation to indemnify the Administrative Agent with respect to any transactions, events or occurrences that transpire after the effective date of such assignment, (ii) each Eligible Assignee to which such transferor Lender shall make an assignment shall be responsible to the Administrative Agent to indemnify the Administrative Agent in accordance with this Agreement with respect to transactions, events and occurrences transpiring on and after the effective date of such assignment to it, and (iii) the transferor Lender shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of those provisions of the Loan Documents (including indemnities from the Borrower) that survive Full Payment of the Obligations.

(c) Dissemination of Information . The Borrower authorizes each Lender and the Administrative Agent to disclose to any Participant, any Eligible Assignee or any other Person acquiring an interest in the Loan Documents by operation of law (each a “Transferee”), and any prospective Transferee, any and all information in the Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s possession concerning the Borrower, the Subsidiaries of the Borrower or the Collateral, subject to execution, prior to any such disclosure of a Confidentiality Agreement in the form of Exhibit K on the part of such Transferee.

REVOLVING CREDIT NOTE


U.S. $ .		, 000 Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, WESTPOINT HOME, INC., a Delaware corporation (hereinafter referred to as “Borrower”), hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the order of (herein, together with any subsequent holder hereof, called the “Holder”) the principal sum of $ or such lesser sum as may constitute Holder’s Pro Rata share of the outstanding principal amount of all Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement (as defined below) on the date on which such outstanding principal amounts become due and payable pursuant to Section 2.9 of the Loan Agreement, in strict accordance with the terms thereof. Borrower likewise unconditionally promises to pay to Holder interest from and after the date hereof on Holder’s Pro Rata share of the outstanding principal amount of Revolving Credit Loans at such interest rates, payable at such times, and computed in such manner as are specified in Section 4.1 of the Loan Agreement, in strict accordance with the terms thereof.

This Revolving Credit Note (“Note”) is issued pursuant to, and is one of the “Revolving Credit Notes” referred to in, the Loan and Security Agreement dated as of June___, 2006 (as the same may be amended from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”), among Borrower, Bank of America, N.A., as collateral and administrative agent (in such capacity, together with its successors in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”) for itself and the financial institutions from time to time parties thereto as lenders (“Lenders”), and such Lenders, and Holder is and shall be entitled to all benefits thereof and of all Loan Documents executed and delivered in connection therewith. This Note is subject to certain restrictions on transfer or assignment as provided in the Loan Agreement. All capitalized terms used herein, unless otherwise defined herein, shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Loan Agreement.

The repayment of the principal balance of this Note is subject to the provisions of Section 2.9 of the Loan Agreement. The entire unpaid principal balance and all accrued interest on this Note shall be due and payable immediately upon the termination of the Commitments as set forth in Section 2.8 of the Loan Agreement.

All payments of principal and interest shall be made in Dollars in immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent for Holder’s benefit as specified in the Loan Agreement.

Upon or after the occurrence of an Event of Default and for so long as such Event of Default exists, the principal balance and all accrued interest of this Note may be declared (or shall become) due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Loan Agreement, and the unpaid principal balance hereof shall bear interest at the Default Rate as and when provided in Section 4.2 of the Loan Agreement. Borrower agrees to pay, and save Holder harmless against, any liability for the payment of, all costs and expenses, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, if this Note is collected by or through an attorney-at-law.

All principal amounts of Revolving Credit Loans made by Holder to the Borrower pursuant to the Loan Agreement, and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall be deemed outstanding under this Note and shall continue to be owing by Borrower until paid in accordance with the terms of this Note and the Loan Agreement.

In no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of advancement of the proceeds hereof or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to Holder for the use, forbearance or detention of money advanced hereunder exceed the highest lawful rate permissible under any law which a court of

competent jurisdiction may deem applicable hereto; and, in the event of any such payment inadvertently paid by Borrower or inadvertently received by Holder, such excess sum shall be, at Borrower’s option, returned to the Borrower forthwith or credited as a payment of principal, but shall not be applied to the payment of interest. It is the intent hereof that Borrower not pay or contract to pay, and that Holder not receive or contract to receive, directly or indirectly in any manner whatsoever, interest in excess of that which may be paid by Borrower under Applicable Law.

Time is of the essence of this Note. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, Borrower, for itself and its legal representatives, successors and assigns, expressly waives presentment, demand, protest, notice of dishonor, notice of non-payment, notice of maturity, notice of protest, presentment for the purpose of accelerating maturity, diligence in collection, and the benefit of any exemption or insolvency laws.

Wherever possible each provision of this Note shall be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and valid under Applicable Law, but if any provision of this Note shall be prohibited or invalid under Applicable Law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity without invalidating the remainder of such provision or remaining provisions of this Note. No delay or failure on the part of Holder in the exercise of any right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor as an acquiescence in any default, nor shall any single or partial exercise by Holder of any right or remedy preclude any other right or remedy. The Administrative Agent, at its option, may enforce its rights against any Collateral securing this Note without enforcing its rights against Borrower of the indebtedness evidenced hereby or any other property or indebtedness due or to become due to the Borrower. Borrower agrees that, without releasing or impairing Borrower’s liability hereunder, the Administrative Agent may at any time release, surrender, substitute or exchange any Collateral securing this Note and may at any time release any party primarily or secondarily liable for the indebtedness evidenced by this Note.

The rights of Holder and obligations of the Borrower hereunder shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws (without giving effect to the conflict of law principles thereof) of the State of New York. This Note is intended to take effect as an instrument under seal.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Borrower has caused this Note to be executed under seal and delivered by its duly authorized officers on the date first above written.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

In connection with your review of WestPoint Home, Inc. (together with any of its affiliates and representatives, the “Company”) related to a potential financing transaction involving extending credit to the Company or otherwise participating in the such credit (the “Potential Transaction”), you (together with any of your affiliates and representatives, “Recipient”) requested that the Company and/or Bank of America, N.A. (together with any of its representatives, “BofA”) provide Recipient with certain information.

As used herein, “Confidential Information” means (1) the names of the Company or any of its affiliates, including without limitation, Xxxx X. Icahn, in connection with the Potential Transaction, (2) the existence of this or any other agreements between BofA and the Company or drafts thereof or the term sheets describing any such agreement or transaction, and the terms of any of the foregoing, and (3) all data, reports, interpretations, forecasts and records containing or otherwise reflecting information concerning the Company, that the Company, BofA or their representatives provide to Recipient in the course of Recipient’s consideration of the Potential Transaction and thereafter during the term of this agreement, together with analyses, compilations, studies or other documents, whether prepared by BofA, the Company or Recipient or its agents or attorneys, which contain or otherwise reflect such information.

In consideration of BofA and/or the Company providing Recipient with Confidential Information, Recipient agrees that the Confidential Information will not, except as hereinafter provided, without the prior written consent of the Company, be used other than in connection with Recipient’s review of and participation in the Potential Transaction or disclosed by Recipient or by its agents, attorneys, advisors, employees or other representatives to whom the Company or BofA provides Confidential Information on behalf of Recipient, or who receive Confidential Information from or on behalf of Recipient (collectively, the “Representatives”), in any manner whatsoever, in whole or in part; provided, however, that Recipient and its Representatives may disclose Confidential Information to one another for the purpose of evaluating, conducting, structuring, negotiating or otherwise discussing or participating in the Potential Transaction. Recipient shall be responsible for any breach of this agreement by its Representatives, except for third party Representatives who have executed a confidentiality agreement in favor of the Company on substantially the terms of this agreement.

This agreement shall be inoperative as to particular portions of the Confidential Information if such information (i) is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by the Recipient or its Representatives in breach of this agreement, (ii) was available to the Recipient or its Representatives on a non-confidential basis prior to its disclosure to the Recipient by the Company, (iii) becomes available to the Recipient on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Company provided such source, to the Recipient’s knowledge, has not violated any obligation of confidentiality by the providing of such information or (iv) was independently developed by the Recipient without use of or reliance on such Confidential Information.

Furthermore, nothing herein shall limit the disclosure of Confidential Information (i) to the extent required by statute, rule, regulation or judicial, administrative or other legal process (subject to and in compliance with the second paragraph below), (ii) to bank examiners, auditors or accountants, or (iii) in connection with any litigation to which Recipient or any Representative is a party (subject to and in compliance with the second paragraph below).

The written Confidential Information, except for that portion of the Confidential Information (the “Recipient Studies”) that may be found in analyses, compilations, studies or other documents prepared by Recipient, or its agents, attorneys, advisors or employees, shall be returned to the Company or destroyed promptly upon the Company’s written request to the Recipient. Recipient Studies and other documents prepared by Recipient, or its agents, attorneys, or employees shall, at Recipient’s option, be kept subject to the terms of this agreement or destroyed. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Recipient may retain such Confidential Information as necessary to enable it to comply with any applicable law, regulation or requirement of a regulatory body governing document retention, in each case subject to this agreement. The foregoing sentence shall survive the termination of this agreement.

In the event that Recipient is requested (by interrogatory, subpoena, deposition, civil investigation demand, regulatory request or other similar legal process) to disclose any Confidential Information, Recipient shall (to the extent not prohibited from doing as a result of such law, regulation or legal process), as soon as practical, notify the Company of any such request so that the Company may either seek, at its sole expense, an appropriate protective order or waive Recipient’s compliance with the provisions of this agreement. If Recipient concludes, upon advice of counsel to such effect, that it is obliged under the applicable law to disclose any portion of the Confidential Information, Recipient may disclose that portion of the Confidential Information without liability hereunder. In any event, Recipient shall reasonably cooperate with the Company and not oppose action by the Company in any such proceeding to obtain an appropriate protective order or other appropriate remedy.

The delivery to Recipient by the Company or BofA of the Confidential Information is not intended to be a commitment or agreement on behalf of the Company

or BofA to engage in any transaction or to constitute a representation or warranty with respect to the accuracy or completeness of the Confidential Information.

This agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts made in and to be performed in that state without regard to conflict of law principles thereof. Except as expressly otherwise provided herein, this agreement shall terminate three years from the date hereof. This agreement is for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Company and the Company is intended third-party beneficiary of this agreement. If the foregoing reflects our agreement, kindly sign and return the duplicate copy of this letter to the Company and BofA.
