Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow Revolving Credit Loans hereunder until the Revolving Credit Maturity Date. Each Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment as of the Closing Date is set forth on the applicable Lender Addendum.

SECTION 2.2 Swingline Loans.

(a) Availability. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Swingline Lender agrees to make Swingline Loans to the Borrower in Dollars from time to time from the first Business Day following the Closing Date through, but not including, the Swingline Termination Date; provided that the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Swingline Loans (after giving effect to any amount requested) shall not exceed the lesser of (A) the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments of all Lenders less the sum of all outstanding Revolving Credit Loans and the L/C Obligations and (B) the Swingline Commitment.

(i) Swingline Loans shall be refunded by the Lenders on demand by the Swingline Lender. Such refundings shall be made by the Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages and shall thereafter be reflected as Revolving Credit Loans of the Lenders on the books and records of the Administrative Agent.

(ii) The Borrower shall pay to the Swingline Lender on demand the amount of such Swingline Loans to the extent amounts received from the Lenders are not sufficient to repay in full the outstanding Swingline Loans requested or required to be refunded. In addition, the Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to charge any account maintained by the Borrower with the Swingline Lender (up to the amount available therein) in order to pay immediately the Swingline Lender the amount of such Swingline Loans to the extent amounts received from the Lenders are not sufficient to repay in full the outstanding Swingline Loans requested or required to be refunded.

(iii) Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to refund Swingline Loans in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.2 is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including, without limitation, non-satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Article VI. Further, each Lender agrees and acknowledges that if prior to the refunding of any outstanding Swingline Loans pursuant to this Section 2.2, one of the events described in Section 12.1(i) or (j) shall have occurred, each Lender will, on the date the applicable Revolving Credit Loan would have been made, purchase an undivided participating interest in the Swingline Loan to be refunded in an amount equal to its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the aggregate amount of such Swingline Loan. Each Lender will immediately transfer to the Swingline Lender, in immediately available funds, the amount of its participation and upon receipt thereof the Swingline Lender will deliver to such Lender a certificate evidencing such participation dated the date of receipt of such funds and for such amount. Whenever, at any time after the Swingline Lender has received from any Lender such Lender’s participating interest in a Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender receives any payment on account thereof, the Swingline Lender will distribute to such Lender its participating interest in such amount (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender’s participating interest was outstanding and funded).

(a) The Issuing Lender irrevocably agrees to grant and hereby grants to each L/C Participant, and, to induce the Issuing Lender to issue Letters of Credit hereunder, each L/C Participant irrevocably agrees to accept and purchase and hereby accepts and purchases from the Issuing Lender, on the terms and conditions hereinafter stated, for such L/C Participant’s own account and risk an undivided interest equal to such L/C Participant’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage in the Issuing Lender’s obligations and rights under and in respect of each Letter of Credit issued hereunder and the Dollar Amount of each payment by the Issuing Lender thereunder determined by the Administrative Agent on the day of such payment. Each L/C Participant unconditionally and irrevocably agrees with the Issuing Lender that, if a payment is made under any Letter of Credit for which the Issuing Lender is not reimbursed in full by the Borrower through a Revolving Credit Loan or otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such L/C Participant shall pay to the Issuing Lender upon demand at the Issuing Lender’s address for notices specified herein the amount set forth on the relevant certificate of the Issuing Lender referred to in Section 3.4(b), such amount being equal to the Dollar Amount of such L/C Participant’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of such payment, or any part thereof, which is not so reimbursed.

(b) Upon becoming aware of any amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant to the Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.4(a) in respect of any unreimbursed portion of any payment made by the Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender shall notify each L/C Participant of the Dollar Amount (as determined by the Administrative Agent with reference to the Dollar Amount of the applicable payment by the Issuing Lender determined on the date of its disbursement adjusted for any reimbursement payments received by the Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.5) and due date of such required payment, and such L/C Participant shall pay to the Issuing Lender the Dollar Amount specified on the applicable due date. If any such amount is paid to the Issuing Lender after the date such payment is due, such L/C Participant shall pay to the Issuing Lender on demand, in addition to such amount, the product of (i) such amount multiplied by (ii) the daily average Federal Funds Rate as determined by the Administrative Agent during the period from and including the date such payment is due to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Issuing Lender multiplied by (iii) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse during such period and the denominator of which is 360. Notification of the amounts owing under this Section 3.4(b) by each L/C Participant shall be in the form of a certificate of the Issuing Lender delivered to such L/C Participant, and such certificate shall be conclusive of the amounts owing by the L/C Participant to the Issuing Lender in the absence of manifest error. With respect to payment to the Issuing Lender of the unreimbursed amounts described in this Section 3.4(b), if the L/C Participants receive notice that any such payment is due (A) prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on any Business Day, such payment shall be due that Business Day, and (B) after 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on any Business Day, such payment shall be due on the following Business Day.

(c) Whenever, at any time after the Issuing Lender has made payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any L/C Participant its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of such payment in accordance with this Section 3.4, the Issuing Lender receives any payment related to such Letter of Credit (whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise), or any payment of interest on account thereof for the account of such L/C Participant, the Issuing Lender will distribute to such L/C Participant its pro rata share of the Dollar Amount thereof as determined by the Administrative Agent on the day the Issuing Lender receives such payment; provided that in the event that any such payment received by the Issuing Lender shall be required to be returned by the Issuing Lender, such L/C Participant shall return to the Issuing Lender the portion thereof previously distributed by the Issuing Lender to it.

(d) If the Issuing Lender has made a payment under any Letter of Credit, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse the Issuing Lender in full in accordance with Section 3.5(a) on the date such payment is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest at the rate specified in Section 5.1(d), for each day from and including the date such payment is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such payment in full in accordance with Section 3.5(a). Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the Issuing Lender, except that interest accrued on and after the date of funding by an L/C Participant of its participation in a Letter of Credit in accordance with Section 3.4(a) to reimburse the Issuing Lender for a payment under such Letter of Credit shall be for the account of such L/C Participant to the extent of such funding.

(e) All payments made by any L/C Participant under this Section 3.4 shall be made in Dollars. The Borrower shall be liable for any currency exchange loss pursuant to the terms of Section 3.9.

SECTION 3.5 Reimbursement of Letter of Credit Drawings.

(a) Reimbursement Obligation of the Borrower. In the event of any drawing under any Letter of Credit, the Borrower agrees to reimburse (either with the proceeds of a Revolving Credit Loan as provided for in this Section 3.5 or with funds from other sources), in same day funds in Dollars, the Issuing Lender on each date on which the Issuing Lender notifies the Borrower of the date and amount of a payment made under any Letter of Credit for (i) the Dollar Amount of such payment as determined by the Administrative Agent on the date of such notification and (ii) any amounts referred to in Section 3.3(c) incurred by the Issuing Lender in connection with such payment (other then those payable pursuant to Section 3.5(c) below).

(b) Reimbursement By the Lenders. Unless the Borrower shall immediately notify the Issuing Lender that the Borrower intends to reimburse the Issuing Lender for such drawing from other sources or funds, the Borrower shall be deemed to have timely given a Notice of Borrowing to the Administrative Agent requesting that the Lenders make a Revolving Credit Loan funded in Dollars bearing interest at the Base Rate on such date in the amount of (a) the Dollar Amount of such payment as determined by the Administrative Agent on the date of its disbursement and (b) any amounts referred to in Section 3.3(c) incurred by the Issuing Lender in connection with such payment (including, without limitation, any and all costs, fees and other expenses incurred by the Issuing Lender in effecting the payment of any Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency), and the Lenders shall make a Revolving Credit Loan funded in Dollars bearing interest at the Base Rate in such amount, the proceeds of which shall be applied to reimburse the Issuing Lender for the amount of the related drawing and costs and expenses. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to fund a Revolving Credit Loan in accordance with this Section 3.5 to reimburse the Issuing Lender for any payment made under a Letter of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including, without limitation, non-satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 2.3(a) or Article VI. If the Borrower has elected to pay the amount of such drawing with funds from other sources and shall fail to reimburse the Issuing Lender as provided above, the unreimbursed amount of such drawing shall bear interest at the rate which would be payable on any outstanding Base Rate Loans which were then overdue from the date such amounts become payable (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) until payment in full.

(c) Payment of Alternative Currency Letters of Credit. Each payment by the Borrower on account of any Alternative Currency Letter of Credit (including the Reimbursement Obligation with respect to any Alternative Currency Letter of Credit) shall be made in Dollars not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date specified for payment under this Agreement to the Administrative Agent’s account with the Issuing Lender’s Correspondent for the account of the Issuing Lender in immediately

available funds, and shall be made without any set-off, counterclaim or deduction whatsoever. Any payment received after such time but before 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on such day shall be deemed a payment on such date for the purposes of Section 12.1, but for all other purposes shall be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day. Any payment received after 2:00 p.m. (the time of the Issuing Lender’s Correspondent) shall be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day for all purposes.

SECTION 3.6 Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s obligations under this Article III (including, without limitation, the Reimbursement Obligation) shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any set-off, counterclaim or defense to payment which the Borrower may have or have had against the Issuing Lender or any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or any other Person. The Borrower also agrees that the Issuing Lender and the L/C Participants shall not be responsible for, and the Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligation under Section 3.5 shall not be affected by, among other things, the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even though such documents shall in fact prove to be invalid, fraudulent or forged, or any dispute between the Borrower and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred or any claims whatsoever of the Borrower against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or any such transferee. The Issuing Lender shall not be liable for any error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with any Letter of Credit, except for errors or omissions caused by the Issuing Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Borrower agrees that any action taken or omitted by the Issuing Lender under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or the related drafts or documents, if done in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall be binding on the Borrower and shall not result in any liability of the Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant to the Borrower. The responsibility of the Issuing Lender to the Borrower in connection with any draft presented for payment under any Letter of Credit shall, in addition to any payment obligation expressly provided for in such Letter of Credit, be limited to determining that the documents (including each draft) delivered under such Letter of Credit in connection with such presentment are in conformity with such Letter of Credit.

SECTION 3.7 Excess L/C Obligations. If at any time (as determined by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 3.7) and because of currency fluctuations or for any other reason, based upon the Dollar Amount of all outstanding Loans and L/C Obligations, the outstanding amount of all L/C Obligations exceeds the lesser of (a) the Aggregate Commitment less the sum of the amount of all outstanding Loans and (b) the L/C Commitment, then, in each such case, the Borrower shall, at its option, either (i) repay Loans in an amount equal to such excess (to the extent such repayment will eliminate such excess) or (ii) make a payment of cash collateral into a cash collateral account opened by the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders in an amount equal to such excess (such cash collateral to be applied in accordance with Section 12.2(b)). The Borrower’s compliance with this Section 3.7 shall be tested from time to time by the Administrative Agent at its sole discretion, but in any event shall be tested on (x) the date on which the Borrower requests the Lenders to make a Loan or requests the Issuing Lender to issue a Letter of Credit under Section 6.3 and (y) the date an interest payment is due under Section 5.1(e). Each such repayment pursuant to this Section 3.7 shall be accompanied by any amount required to be paid pursuant to Section 5.9 hereof.

SECTION 3.8 Regulatory Limitation. In the event, as a result of increases in the value of Alternative Currencies against the Dollar or for any other reason, the obligation of the Issuing Lender to issue Alternative Currency Letters of Credit (taking into account the Dollar Amount of the Obligations on the date of determination and all other indebtedness required to be aggregated under 12 U.S.C.A. §84, as amended, the regulations promulgated thereunder and any other Applicable Law) is determined by the Issuing Lender to exceed its then applicable legal lending limit under 12 U.S.C.A. §84, as amended, and the regulations promulgated thereunder, or any other Applicable Law, the amount of additional

Alternative Currency Letters of Credit the Issuing Lenders shall be obligated to issue hereunder shall immediately be reduced to the maximum amount which the Issuing Lender may legally advance (as determined by the Issuing Lender) and, to the extent necessary under such laws and regulations (as determined by the Issuing Lender, with respect to the applicability of such laws and regulations to itself), the Borrower shall reduce, or cause to be reduced, complying to the extent practicable with the remaining provisions hereof, the Obligations outstanding hereunder by an amount sufficient to comply with such maximum amounts.

SECTION 3.9 Exchange Indemnification and Increased Costs. The Borrower shall, upon demand from the Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant, pay to the Issuing Lender or such L/C Participant, the amount of (a) any loss or cost or increased cost incurred by the Issuing Lender or such L/C Participant, (b) any reduction in any amount payable to or in the effective return on the capital to the Issuing Lender or such L/C Participant or (c) any currency exchange loss, in each case that the Issuing Lender or such L/C Participant sustains as a result of the Borrower’s or any L/C Participant’s repayment in Dollars of any Alternative Currency Letter of Credit. A certificate of the Issuing Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for determining such additional amount or amounts necessary to compensate the Issuing Lender shall, in the absence of manifest error, be presumed to be correct and binding for all purposes.

SECTION 3.10 Effect of Application. To the extent that any provision of any Application related to any Letter of Credit is inconsistent with the provisions of this Article III, the provisions of this Article III shall apply.

ARTICLE IV

The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of each Notice of Borrowing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, however, if the Borrower fails to deliver a Notice of Borrowing for the Initial Term Loans on the day required pursuant to this Section 4.2(a), the Borrower shall be deemed to have: (1)

In connection with each LIBOR Rate Loan, the Borrower, by giving notice at the times described in Section 5.1(a), shall elect an interest period (each, an “Interest Period”) to be applicable to such Loan, which Interest Period shall be a period of one (1), two (2), three (3), six (6), (or with the prior written consent of each Lender holding or to hold such Loan) nine (9) or twelve (12) months with respect to each LIBOR Rate Loan; provided that:

(i) the Interest Period shall commence on the date of advance of or conversion to any LIBOR Rate Loan and, in the case of immediately successive Interest Periods, each successive Interest Period shall commence on the date on which the immediately preceding Interest Period expires;

(ii) if any Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall expire on the next succeeding Business Day; provided that if any Interest Period with respect to a LIBOR Rate Loan would otherwise expire on a day that is not a Business Day but is a day of the month after which no further Business Day occurs in such month, such Interest Period shall expire on the immediately preceding Business Day;

(iii) any Interest Period with respect to a LIBOR Rate Loan that begins on the last Business Day of a calendar month (or on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at the end of such Interest Period) shall end on the last Business Day of the relevant calendar month at the end of such Interest Period;

(iv) no Interest Period shall extend beyond the Revolving Credit Maturity Date or the Term Loan Maturity Date (or, in the case of any Series of Incremental Term Loans, the final maturity thereof), as applicable, and Interest Periods shall be selected by the Borrower so as to permit the Borrower to make the quarterly principal installment payments pursuant to Section 4.3 without payment of any amounts pursuant to Section 5.9; and

the Borrower is required to provide an Officer’s Compliance Certificate for the most recently ended Fiscal Quarter; provided, however, that (a) the initial Applicable Margin for the Revolving Credit Loans shall be based on Pricing Level IV (as shown below) and shall remain at Pricing Level IV until receipt by the Administrative Agent of the Officer’s Compliance Certificate for the Fiscal Quarter ending on or nearest to June 30, 2007 and, thereafter the Pricing Level shall be determined by reference to the Total Leverage Ratio as of the last day of the most recently ended Fiscal Quarter preceding the applicable Calculation Date, and (b) if the Borrower fails to provide the Officer’s Compliance Certificate as required by Section 8.2 for the most recently ended Fiscal Quarter preceding the applicable Calculation Date, the Applicable Margin for the Revolving Credit Loans from such Calculation Date shall be based on Pricing Level VI (as shown below) until such time as an appropriate Officer’s Compliance Certificate is provided, at which time (but with no retroactive effect) the Pricing Level shall be determined by reference to the Total Leverage Ratio as of the last day of the most recently ended Fiscal Quarter preceding such Calculation Date. The Applicable Margin for the Revolving Credit Loans shall be effective from one Calculation Date until the next Calculation Date. Any adjustment in the Applicable Margin shall be applicable to all Revolving Credit Loans then existing or subsequently made or issued.

(f) Maximum Rate. In no contingency or event whatsoever shall the aggregate of all amounts deemed interest hereunder or under any of the Notes charged or collected pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or pursuant to any of the Notes exceed the highest rate permissible under any Applicable Law which a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable hereto. In the event that such a court determines that the Lenders have charged or received interest hereunder in excess of the highest applicable rate, the rate in effect hereunder shall automatically be reduced to the maximum rate permitted by Applicable Law, and the Lenders shall at the Administrative Agent’s option (i) promptly refund to the Borrower any interest received by the Lenders in excess of the maximum lawful rate or (ii) apply such excess to the principal balance of the Obligations on a pro rata basis. It is the intent hereof that the Borrower not pay or contract to pay, and that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender receive or contract to receive, directly or indirectly in any manner whatsoever, interest in excess of that which may be paid by the Borrower under Applicable Law.

SECTION 5.2 Notice and Manner of Conversion or Continuation of Loans. Provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, the Borrower shall have the option to (a) convert at any time following the third Business Day after the Closing Date all or any portion of any outstanding Base Rate Loans (other than Swingline Loans) in a minimum principal amount equal to Two Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,500,000) into one or more LIBOR Rate Loans and (b) upon the expiration of any Interest Period, (i) convert all or any part of its outstanding LIBOR Rate Loans in a minimum principal amount equal to One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) into Base Rate Loans (other than Swingline Loans) or (ii) continue all or any part of such LIBOR Rate Loans as LIBOR Rate Loans. Whenever the Borrower desires to convert or continue Loans as provided above, the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable prior written notice in the form attached as Exhibit E (a “Notice of Conversion/Continuation”) not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) three (3) Business Days before the day on which a proposed conversion or continuation of such Loan is to be effective specifying (A) the Loans to be converted or continued, and, in the case of any LIBOR Rate Loan to be converted or continued, the last day of the Interest Period therefor, (B) the effective date of such conversion or continuation (which shall be a Business Day), (C) the principal amount of such Loans to be converted or continued, and (D) the Interest Period to be applicable to such converted or continued LIBOR Rate Loan. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of such Notice of Conversion/Continuation.

SECTION 5.3 Fees.

(a) Commitment Fee. Commencing on the Closing Date, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, a non-refundable commitment fee on the average daily unused portion of the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments at a rate based upon the table set forth below and shall be determined and adjusted quarterly on each Calculation Date ten (10) Business Days after the date by which the Borrower is required to provide an Officer’s Compliance Certificate for the most recently ended Fiscal Quarter; provided that the amount of outstanding Swingline Loans shall

not be considered usage of the Revolving Credit Commitments for the purpose of calculating such commitment fee; provided further, however, that (a) the initial rate shall be based on Pricing Level II (as shown below) and shall remain at Pricing Level II until receipt by the Administrative Agent of the Officer’s Compliance Certificate for the Fiscal Quarter ending on or nearest to March 31, 2007 and, thereafter the Pricing Level shall be determined by reference to the Total Leverage Ratio as of the last day of the most recently ended Fiscal Quarter preceding the applicable Calculation Date and (b) if the Borrower fails to provide the Officer’s Compliance Certificate as required by Section 8.2 for the most recently ended Fiscal Quarter preceding the applicable Calculation Date, the Applicable Margin from such Calculation Date shall be based on Pricing Level II (as shown below) until such time as an appropriate Officer’s Compliance Certificate is provided, at which time (but with no retroactive effect) the Pricing Level shall be determined by reference to the Total Leverage Ratio as of the last day of the most recently ended Fiscal Quarter preceding such Calculation Date. The commitment fee rate so determined shall be effective from one Calculation Date until the next Calculation Date. The commitment fee shall be payable in arrears on the last Business Day of each consecutive Fiscal Quarter ending on or nearest to December 31, March 31, June 30 and September 30 during the term of this Agreement, commencing on the last Business Day of the Fiscal Quarter ending on or nearest to March 31, 2007, and on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date. Such commitment fee shall be distributed by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Lenders’ respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages.



		Commitment Fee Rate
		on Unused Portion
		of Revolving Credit
Pricing Level	Total Leverage Ratio	Commitments
II	Greater than 2.00 to 1.00		0.500	%
I	Less than or equal to 2.00 to 1.00		0.375	%

(b) Administrative Agent’s and Other Fees. In order to compensate the Administrative Agent for structuring and syndicating the Loans and for its obligations hereunder, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its account, the fees set forth in the separate fee letter agreement executed by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent dated December 13, 2006.

SECTION 5.4 Manner of Payment. Each payment by the Borrower on account of the principal of or interest on the Loans or of any fee, commission or other amounts (including the Reimbursement Obligation) payable to the Lenders under this Agreement or any Note shall be made not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date specified for payment under this Agreement to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Office for the account of the Lenders (other than as set forth below) pro rata in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages or Term Loan Percentages, as applicable, (except as specified below), in Dollars, in immediately available funds and shall be made without any set-off, counterclaim or deduction whatsoever. Any payment received after such time but before 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on such day shall be deemed a payment on such date for the purposes of Section 12.1, but for all other purposes shall be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day. Any payment received after 2:00 p.m. (New York time) shall be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day for all purposes. Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of each such payment, the Administrative Agent shall distribute to each Lender in accordance with the wiring instructions set forth in the relevant Lender Addendum or Assignment and Acceptance, as the case may be, or as subsequently notified by such Lender to the Administrative Agent, its pro rata share of such payment in accordance with such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage or Term Loan Percentage, as applicable, (except as specified below) and shall wire the amount of such credit to each Lender. Each payment to the Administrative Agent of the Issuing Lender’s fees or

L/C Participants’ commissions shall be made in like manner, but for the account of the Issuing Lender or the L/C Participants, as the case may be. Each payment to the Administrative Agent of Administrative Agent’s fees or expenses shall be made for the account of the Administrative Agent and any amount payable to any Lender under Sections 5.8, 5.9, 5.10, 5.11 or 14.2 shall be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lender. Subject to Section 5.1(b)(ii) if any payment under this Agreement or any Note shall be specified to be made upon a day which is not a Business Day, it shall be made on the next succeeding day which is a Business Day and such extension of time shall in such case be included in computing any interest if payable along with such payment.

SECTION 5.5 Crediting of Payments and Proceeds. In the event that the Borrower shall fail to pay any of the Obligations when due and the Obligations have been accelerated pursuant to Section 12.2, all payments received by the Lenders upon the Notes and the other Obligations and all net proceeds from the enforcement of the Obligations shall be applied: (a) first, to all expenses then due and payable by the Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (b) second, to all indemnity obligations then due and payable by the Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (c) third, to all of the Administrative Agent’s and Issuing Lender’s fees then due and payable, (d) fourth, to all commitment and other fees and commissions then due and payable and all accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes, accrued and unpaid interest on the Reimbursement Obligation and accrued and unpaid periodic payments or interest (but not any settlement amounts) payable under any Hedging Obligations (pro rata in accordance with all such amounts due), (e) fifth, to the principal amount of the Notes and Reimbursement Obligation and any settlement amounts payable under any Hedging Obligations (pro rata in accordance with all such amounts due) and (f) sixth, to the cash collateral account described in Section 12.2(b) hereof to the extent of any L/C Obligations then outstanding.

SECTION 5.6 Adjustments. If any Lender (a “Benefited Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of the Obligations owing to it, or interest thereon, or if any Lender shall at any time receive any collateral in respect to the Obligations owing to it (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off or otherwise) (other than pursuant to Sections 5.8, 5.9, 5.10, 5.11 or 14.2 hereof) in a greater proportion than any such payment to and collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of the similar Obligations owing to such other Lender, or interest thereon, such Benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders such portion of each such other Lender’s Extensions of Credit, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably with each of the Lenders; provided that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. The Borrower agrees that each Lender so purchasing a portion of another Lender’s Extensions of Credit may exercise all rights of payment (including, without limitation, rights of set-off) with respect to such portion as fully as if such Lender were the direct holder of such portion.

SECTION 5.7 Nature of Obligations of Lenders Regarding Extensions of Credit; Assumption by the Administrative Agent. The obligations of the Lenders under this Agreement to make the Loans and issue or participate in Letters of Credit are several and are not joint or joint and several. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to a proposed borrowing date that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s ratable portion of the amount to be borrowed on such date (which notice shall not release such Lender of its obligations hereunder), the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the proposed borrowing date in accordance with Sections 2.3(b) and 4.2(b), and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If such amount is made available to the Administrative Agent on a date after such borrowing date, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent on demand an amount,

until paid, equal to the product of (a) the amount not made available by such Lender in accordance with the terms hereof multiplied by (b) the daily average Federal Funds Rate during such period as determined by the Administrative Agent multiplied by (c) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse from and including such borrowing date to the date on which such amount not made available by such Lender in accordance with the terms hereof shall have become immediately available to the Administrative Agent and the denominator of which is 360. A certificate of the Administrative Agent with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 5.7 shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. If such Lender’s ratable portion of such borrowing is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three (3) Business Days after such borrowing date, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount made available by the Administrative Agent with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to Base Rate Loans hereunder, on demand, from the Borrower. The failure of any Lender to make available its ratable portion of any Loan requested by the Borrower shall not relieve it or any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its ratable portion of such Loan available on the borrowing date, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make its ratable portion of such Loan available on the borrowing date. Notwithstanding anything set forth herein to the contrary, any Lender that fails to make available its ratable portion of any Loan shall not (a) have any voting or consent rights under or with respect to any Loan Document or (b) constitute a “Lender” (or be included in the calculation of Required Lenders hereunder) for any voting or consent rights under or with respect to any Loan Document.

SECTION 5.8 Changed Circumstances.

(a) Circumstances Affecting LIBOR Rate Availability. If with respect to any Interest Period the Administrative Agent or any Lender (after consultation with the Administrative Agent) shall determine that, by reason of circumstances affecting the foreign exchange and interbank markets generally, deposits in eurodollars, in the applicable amounts are not being quoted via the Dow Xxxxx Market Screen 3750 or offered to the Administrative Agent or such Lender for such Interest Period, then the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrower. Thereafter, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that such circumstances no longer exist, the obligation of the Lenders to make LIBOR Rate Loans and the right of the Borrower to convert any Loan to or continue any Loan as a LIBOR Rate Loan shall be suspended, and the Borrower shall repay in full (or cause to be repaid in full) the then outstanding principal amount of each such LIBOR Rate Loan together with accrued interest thereon, on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loan or convert the then outstanding principal amount of each such LIBOR Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan as of the last day of such Interest Period.

(b) Laws Affecting LIBOR Rate Availability. If, after the date hereof, the introduction of, or any change in, any Applicable Law or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any of the Lenders (or any of their respective Lending Offices) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, shall make it unlawful or impossible for any of the Lenders (or any of their respective Lending Offices) to honor its obligations hereunder to make or maintain any LIBOR Rate Loan, such Lender shall promptly give notice thereof to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice to the Borrower and the other Lenders. Thereafter, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that such circumstances no longer exist, (i) the obligations of the Lenders to make LIBOR Rate Loans and the right of the Borrower to convert any Loan or continue any Loan as a LIBOR Rate Loan shall be suspended and thereafter the Borrower may select only Base Rate Loans hereunder and (ii) if any of the Lenders may not lawfully continue to maintain a LIBOR Rate Loan to the end of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto as a LIBOR

Rate Loan, the applicable LIBOR Rate Loan shall immediately be converted to a Base Rate Loan for the remainder of such Interest Period.

(c) Increased Costs. If, after the date hereof, the introduction of, or any change in, any Applicable Law, or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any of the Lenders (or any of their respective Lending Offices) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency:

(i) shall (except as provided in Section 5.11(e)) subject any of the Lenders (or any of their respective Lending Offices) to any tax, duty or other charge with respect to any Note, Letter of Credit or Application or shall change the basis of taxation of payments to any of the Lenders (or any of their respective Lending Offices) of the principal of or interest on any Note, Letter of Credit or Application or any other amounts due under this Agreement in respect thereof (except for changes in the rate of franchise tax or tax on the overall net income of any of the Lenders or any of their respective Lending Offices imposed by the jurisdiction in which such Lender is organized or is qualified to do business or such Lending Office is located); provided that the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any amounts pursuant to this Section 5.8(c)(i) to the extent that such amounts are duplicative of any amounts paid by the Borrower pursuant to Section 5.11; or

(ii) shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve (including, without limitation, any reserve imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), special deposit, insurance or capital or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by any of the Lenders (or any of their respective Lending Offices) or shall impose on any of the Lenders (or any of their respective Lending Offices) or the foreign exchange and interbank markets any other condition affecting any Note;

and the result of any of the foregoing events described in clause (i) or (ii) above is to increase the costs to any of the Lenders of maintaining any LIBOR Rate Loan or issuing or participating in Letters of Credit or to reduce the yield or amount of any sum received or receivable by any of the Lenders under this Agreement or under the Notes in respect of a LIBOR Rate Loan or Letter of Credit or Application, then such Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower of such fact and demand compensation therefor and, within fifteen (15) days after such notice by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Lenders for such increased cost or reduction. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower of any event of which it has knowledge which will entitle such Lender to compensation pursuant to this Section 5.8(c); provided that the Administrative Agent shall incur no liability whatsoever to the Lenders or the Borrower in the event it fails to do so. The amount of such compensation shall be determined, in the applicable Lender’s reasonable discretion, based upon the assumption that such Lender funded its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage or Term Loan Commitment Percentage, as applicable, of the LIBOR Rate Loans in the London interbank market and using any reasonable attribution or averaging methods which such Lender reasonably deems appropriate and practical. A certificate of such Lender setting forth, in reasonable detail, the basis for determining such amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender shall be forwarded to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent and shall, in the absence of manifest error, be presumed to be correct and binding for all purposes.

SECTION 5.9 Indemnity. The Borrower hereby indemnifies each of the Lenders against any actual loss or expense, as certified by such Lender, which arises or is attributable to each Lender’s obtaining, liquidating or employing deposits or other funds acquired to effect, fund or maintain any Loan (a) as a consequence of any failure by the Borrower to make any payment when due of any amount due

hereunder in connection with a LIBOR Rate Loan, (b) due to any failure of the Borrower to borrow or continue any LIBOR Rate Loan or convert any Base Rate Loan to a LIBOR Rate Loan on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation, or (c) due to any payment, prepayment or conversion of any LIBOR Rate Loan on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor. The amount of such loss or expense shall be determined, in the applicable Lender’s sole discretion, based upon the assumption that such Lender funded its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage or Term Loan Commitment Percentage, as applicable, of the LIBOR Rate Loans in the London interbank market and using any reasonable attribution or averaging methods which such Lender reasonably deems appropriate and practical. A certificate of such Lender setting forth, in reasonable detail, the basis for determining such amount necessary to compensate such Lender shall be forwarded to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent and shall, in the absence of manifest error, be presumed to be correct and binding for all purposes.

SECTION 5.10 Capital Requirements. If either (a) the introduction of, or any change in, or in the interpretation of, any Applicable Law or (b) compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or comparable agency or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law) has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of, or has affected or would affect the amount of capital required to be maintained by, any Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender as a consequence of its Commitments and other commitments of this type or the LIBOR Rate Loans, below the rate which such Lender or such other corporation could have achieved but for such introduction, change or compliance, then within five (5) Business Days after written demand by any such Lender, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender from time to time as specified by such Lender an additional amount sufficient to compensate such Lender or other corporation for such reduction. A certificate of such Lender setting forth, in reasonable detail, the basis for such amount shall be forwarded to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent and, shall, in the absence of manifest error, be presumed to be correct and binding for all purposes.

SECTION 5.11 Taxes.

(a) Payments Free and Clear. Except as otherwise provided in Section 5.11(e), any and all payments by the Borrower hereunder or under the Notes or in respect of the Letters of Credit shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholding, and all liabilities with respect thereto excluding, (i) in the case of each Lender and the Administrative Agent, income and franchise taxes imposed by the jurisdiction under the laws of which such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) is organized or is or should be qualified to do business or any political subdivision thereof and (ii) in the case of each Lender, income and franchise taxes imposed by the jurisdiction of such Lender’s Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If the Borrower shall be required by law to deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any Note or in respect of any Letter of Credit to any Lender or the Administrative Agent, (A) except as otherwise provided in Section 5.11(e), the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions or withholdings (including deductions or withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 5.11) such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the amount such party would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made, (B) the Borrower shall make such deductions or withholdings, (C) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxing authority or other authority in accordance with Applicable Law, and (D) the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and such Lender evidence of such payment to the relevant taxing authority or other Governmental Authority in the manner provided in Section 5.11(d).

(b) Stamp and Other Taxes. In addition, the Borrower shall pay any present or future stamp, registration, recordation or documentary taxes or any other similar fees or charges or excise or property taxes, levies of the United States or any state or political subdivision thereof or any applicable foreign jurisdiction which arise from any payment made hereunder or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement, the Loans, the Letters of Credit or the other Loan Documents, or the perfection of any rights or security interest in respect thereof (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

(c) Indemnity. Except as otherwise provided in Section 5.11(e), the Borrower shall indemnify each Lender and the Administrative Agent for the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes and Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 5.11) paid by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. Such indemnification shall be made within thirty (30) days from the date such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) makes written demand therefor. A certificate of such Lender setting forth, in reasonable detail, the basis for determining such amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender shall be forwarded to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent and shall, in the absence of manifest error, be presumed to be correct and binding for all purposes.

(d) Evidence of Payment. Within thirty (30) days after the date of any payment of Taxes or Other Taxes, the Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Lender, at its address referred to in Section 14.1, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof or other evidence of payment satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Delivery of Tax Forms. To the extent required by Applicable Law to reduce or eliminate withholding or payment of taxes, each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrower, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, on or before the Closing Date or concurrently with the delivery of the relevant Assignment and Acceptance, as applicable, (i) two United States Internal Revenue Service Forms W-9, Forms W-8ECI or Forms W-8BEN, as applicable (or successor forms) properly completed and certifying in each case that such Lender is entitled to a complete exemption from withholding or deduction for or on account of any United States federal income taxes, and (ii) an Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI or successor applicable form, as the case may be, to establish an exemption from United States backup withholding taxes. Each such Lender further agrees to deliver to the Borrower, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, as applicable, two Form W-9, Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI, or successor applicable forms or manner of certification, as the case may be, on or before the date that any such form expires or becomes obsolete or after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form previously delivered by it to the Borrower, certifying in the case of a Form W-9, Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI (or successor forms) that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes (unless in any such case an event (including, without limitation, any change in treaty, law or regulation) has occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be required which renders such forms inapplicable or the exemption to which such forms relate unavailable and such Lender notifies the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that it is not entitled to receive payments without deduction or withholding of United States federal income taxes) and, in the case of a Form W-9, Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI, establishing an exemption from United States backup withholding tax. Notwithstanding anything in any Loan Document to the contrary, the Borrower shall not be required to pay additional amounts to any Lender or the Administrative Agent under this Section 5.11 or Section 5.8(c), (i) if such Lender or the Administrative Agent fails to comply with the requirements of this Section 5.11(e), other than to the extent that such failure is due to a change in treaty, law or regulation occurring after the date on which such Lender or the Administrative Agent became a party to this Agreement or (ii) that are the

result of such Lender’s or the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as applicable.

(f) Survival. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrower contained in this Section 5.11 shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of the Commitments.

SECTION 5.12 Security. The Obligations shall be secured as provided in the Security Documents.

Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing (or its equivalent) under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation, has the power and authority to own its properties and to carry on its business as now being and hereafter proposed to be conducted and is duly qualified and authorized to do business in each jurisdiction in which the character of its properties or the nature of its business requires such qualification and authorization, except where such failure to qualify could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

The shareholders of the Subsidiaries of the Borrower and the number of shares owned by each as of the Closing Date are described on Schedule 7.1(b). As of the Closing Date, there are no outstanding stock purchase warrants, subscriptions, options, securities, instruments or other rights of any type or nature whatsoever, which are convertible into, exchangeable for or otherwise provide for or permit the issuance of capital stock of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries, except as described on Schedule 7.1(b).

(c) Authorization of Agreement, Loan Documents and Borrowing. Each of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries has the right, power and authority and has taken all necessary corporate and other action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents to which it is a party in accordance with their respective terms. This Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents have been duly executed and delivered by the duly authorized officers of the Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries party thereto, and each such document constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower or its Subsidiary party thereto, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,

reorganization, moratorium or similar state or federal debtor relief laws from time to time in effect which affect the enforcement of creditors’ rights in general and the availability of equitable remedies.

(d) Compliance of Agreement, Loan Documents and Borrowing with Laws, Etc. The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries of the Loan Documents to which each such Person is a party, in accordance with their respective terms, the Extensions of Credit hereunder and the transactions contemplated hereby do not and will not, by the passage of time, the giving of notice or otherwise, (i) require any Governmental Approval or violate any Applicable Law relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, (ii) conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute a default under the articles of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational documents of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or, except as could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, any indenture, agreement or other instrument to which such Person is a party or by which any of its properties may be bound or any Governmental Approval relating to such Person, (iii) result in or require the creation or imposition of any Lien upon or with respect to any property now owned or hereafter acquired by such Person other than Liens arising under the Loan Documents or (iv) require any consent or authorization of, filing with, or other act in respect of, an arbitrator or Governmental Authority and no consent of any other Person is required in connection with the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of this Agreement except, in each case, (w) as may be required by laws affecting the offering and sale of securities generally, (x) filings with the United States Copyright Office and/or the United States Patent and Trademark Office, (y) filings under the UCC and/or the Assignment of Claims Act (or analogous state Applicable Law) and (z) those notices, consents and authorizations which have been obtained prior to the Closing Date.

Such returns accurately reflect in all material respects all liability for taxes of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries for the periods covered thereby.

(k) Government Regulation. Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary thereof is an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company” (as each such term is defined or used in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) and neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary thereof is, or after giving effect to any Extension of Credit will be, subject to regulation under the Interstate Commerce Act, as amended, or any other Applicable Law which limits its ability to incur or consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.

(l) Material Contracts. Schedule 7.1(l) sets forth a complete and accurate list of all Material Contracts of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries in effect as of the Closing Date. Other than as set forth in Schedule 7.1(l), each such Material Contract is, and after giving effect to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents will be, in full force and effect in accordance with the terms thereof. To the extent requested by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries have delivered to the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of each Material Contract required to be listed on Schedule 7.1(l) or any other Schedule hereto. Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary (nor, to the knowledge of the Borrower, any other party thereto) is in breach of or in default under any Material Contract in any material respect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the event that any Material Contract has been terminated (whether by notice, by non-renewal or otherwise) or any party thereto is in breach or has defaulted, (i) the calculation of EBITDA for purposes of this Section 7.1(l) shall exclude such portion of EBITDA reasonably attributable to such Material Contract for the four (4) consecutive Fiscal Quarters ending on or immediately prior to such date and include on a pro forma basis for the same four (4) Fiscal Quarter Period EBITDA reasonably attributable to each Material Contract entered into after the Closing Date to the extent that such Material Contract is on such date in full force and effect; and (ii) provided that the Borrower is in compliance with Sections 10.1(a) and (b) after giving effect to the calculation in clause (i), such Material Contract shall be disregarded for purposes of the representation and warranty in this paragraph (l).

The Borrower and its Subsidiaries do not presently anticipate that future expenditures needed to meet the provisions of any statutes, orders, rules or regulations of a Governmental Authority will be so burdensome as to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Subsidiary (other than, with respect to any Non-Recourse Project Financing Indebtedness, any Subsidiary that is an obligor under such Non-Recourse Project Financing Indebtedness) is party to any agreement or instrument or otherwise subject to any restriction or encumbrance that restricts or limits its ability to make dividend payments or other distributions in respect of its capital stock to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or to transfer any of its assets or properties to the Borrower or any other Subsidiary in each case other than existing under or by reason of the Loan Documents or Applicable Law.

(o) Financial Statements.

All such financial statements, including the related schedules and notes thereto, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Borrower and its Subsidiaries have no Debt, obligation or other unusual forward or long-term commitment which is not fairly reflected in the foregoing financial statements or in the notes thereto.

(ii) The pro forma balance sheet of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries delivered pursuant to Section 6.2(e)(i) represents, as of the Closing Date, the good faith estimate of the Borrower and its senior management concerning the effect of the issuance of the Debt hereunder.

Since the end of the Fiscal Year ending on or nearest to December 31, 2005, there has been no material adverse change in the properties, business, operations, prospects, or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Borrower, the Target Company and their respective Subsidiaries taken as a whole and no event has occurred or condition arisen that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. For purposes of this Section 7.1(p), the definition of “Material Adverse Effect” means, with respect to the Borrower, the Target Company and any of its respective Subsidiaries, a material adverse effect on the properties, business, operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Borrower, the Target Company and their respective Subsidiaries taken as a whole or the ability of the Borrower, the Target Company and their respective Subsidiaries to perform their obligations under any Loan Document or the Merger Agreement.

On the date hereof, Schedule 7.1(r) is a complete and correct listing of real property owned by the Borrower or any Restricted Domestic Subsidiary that has an appraised value in excess of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) and sets forth the Borrower’s good faith estimate of the fair market value of each parcel of real property subject to the Mortgages.

(s) Liens. None of the properties and assets of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary thereof is subject to any Lien, except Liens permitted pursuant to Section 11.2.

Schedule 7.1(t) is a complete and correct listing of all Debt and Guaranty Obligations of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as of the Closing Date in excess of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000).

Except for matters set forth on Schedule 7.1(u), there are no actions, suits or proceedings pending nor, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened against or in any other way relating adversely to or affecting the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof or any of their respective properties in any court or before any arbitrator of any kind or before or by any Governmental Authority, in each case except as could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(v) Absence of Defaults. Other than with respect to any Non-Recourse Project Financing Indebtedness, no event has occurred or is continuing which constitutes a Default or an Event of Default, or which constitutes, or which with the passage of time or giving of notice or both would constitute, a default or event of default by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary under any Material Contract or judgment, decree or order to which the Borrower or its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Borrower or its Subsidiaries or any of their respective properties may be bound or which would require the Borrower or its Subsidiaries to make any payment thereunder prior to the scheduled maturity date therefor.

(w) Senior Debt Status. The Obligations of the Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries under this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents ranks and shall continue to rank senior in priority of payment to all Subordinated Debt of each such Person and is designated as “Senior Indebtedness” under all instruments and documents, now or in the future, relating to all Subordinated Debt of such Person.

The Borrower has disclosed in writing to the Administrative Agent all pending claims or matters that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Agreement.

SECTION 12.2 Remedies. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, with the consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent may, or upon the request of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall, by notice to the Borrower:

(a) Acceleration; Termination of Facilities. Declare the principal of and interest on the Loans, the Notes and the Reimbursement Obligations at the time outstanding, and all other amounts owed to the Lenders and to the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, all L/C Obligations, whether or not the beneficiaries of the then outstanding Letters of Credit shall have presented or shall be entitled to present the documents required thereunder) and all other Obligations (other than Hedging Obligations), to be forthwith due and payable, whereupon the same shall immediately become due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are expressly waived, anything in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, and terminate the Credit Facility and any right of the Borrower to request borrowings or Letters of Credit thereunder; provided that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in Section 12.1(i) or (j), the Credit Facility shall be automatically terminated and all Obligations (other than Hedging Obligations) shall automatically become due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are expressly waived, anything in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding.

(b) Letters of Credit. With respect to all Letters of Credit with respect to which presentment for honor shall not have occurred at the time of an acceleration pursuant to the preceding paragraph, the Borrower shall at such time deposit in a cash collateral account opened by the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the aggregate then undrawn and unexpired amount of such Letters of Credit (which such cash collateral shall be deposited in Dollars); provided that with respect to any Alternative Currency Letter of Credit, the amount required to be deposited pursuant to this Section 12.2(b) shall be equal to one hundred and five percent (105%) of the equivalent amount in Dollars of the aggregate then undrawn and unexpired amount of such Alternative Currency Letter of Credit as determined by the Administrative Agent on the day of acceleration; provided further, that if at anytime the Administrative Agent determines that the amount deposited pursuant to this Section 12.2(b) with respect to any such Alternative Currency Letter of Credit is less than one hundred and three percent (103%) of the equivalent amount in Dollars of the undrawn and unexpired amount of such Alternative Currency Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall immediately upon demand by the Administrative Agent deposit additional amounts (in Dollars) in the cash collateral account sufficient to cause the aggregate amount of cash collateral deposited pursuant to this Section 12.2(b) with respect to such Alternative Currency Letter of Credit to be at least equal to one hundred and five percent (105%) of the equivalent amount in Dollars of the aggregate then undrawn and unexpired amount of such Alternative Currency Letter of Credit as determined by the Administrative Agent on the date of such demand. Amounts held in such cash collateral account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to the payment of drafts drawn under such Letters of Credit, and the unused portion thereof after all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, if any, shall be applied to repay the other Obligations on a pro rata basis. After all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, the Reimbursement Obligation shall have been satisfied and all other Obligations shall have been paid in full, the balance, if any, in such cash collateral account shall be returned to the Borrower.

(c) Rights of Collection. Exercise on behalf of the Lenders all of its other rights and remedies under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and Applicable Law, in order to satisfy all of the Borrower’s Obligations.

SECTION 12.3 Rights and Remedies Cumulative; Non-Waiver; etc. The enumeration of the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders set forth in this Agreement is not intended to be exhaustive and the exercise by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders of any right or

remedy shall not preclude the exercise of any other rights or remedies, all of which shall be cumulative, and shall be in addition to any other right or remedy given hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or that may now or hereafter exist at law or in equity or by suit or otherwise. No delay or failure to take action on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege or shall be construed to be a waiver of any Event of Default. No course of dealing between the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders or their respective agents or employees shall be effective to change, modify or discharge any provision of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or to constitute a waiver of any Event of Default.

SECTION 12.4 Judgment Currency. The obligation of the Borrower to make payments of any amounts payable hereunder or pursuant to any other Loan Document in the currency specified for such payment shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender, or any recovery pursuant to any judgment, which is expressed in or converted into any other currency, except to the extent that such tender or recovery shall result in the actual receipt by each of the Administrative Agent and Lenders of the full amount of the particular Permitted Currency expressed to be payable pursuant to the applicable Loan Document. The Administrative Agent shall, using all amounts obtained or received from the Borrower pursuant to any such tender or recovery in payment of principal of and interest on the Obligations, promptly purchase the applicable currency at the most favorable spot exchange rate determined by the Administrative Agent to be available to it. The obligation of the Borrower to make payments in the applicable currency shall be enforceable as an alternative or additional cause of action solely for the purpose of recovering in the applicable currency the amount, if any, by which such actual receipt shall fall short of the full amount of the currency expressed to be payable pursuant to the applicable Loan Document.

ARTICLE XIII

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

SECTION 13.1 Appointment. Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably designates and appoints BNP Paribas as Administrative Agent of such Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents for the term hereof and each such Lender irrevocably authorizes BNP Paribas, as Administrative Agent for such Lender, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and such other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Administrative Agent agrees to act as such contractual representative upon the express conditions contained in this Article XIII. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement or such other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein and therein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent. Any reference to the Administrative Agent in this Article XIII shall be deemed to refer to the Administrative Agent solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent and not in its capacity as a Lender.

SECTION 13.2 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by the Administrative Agent with reasonable care.

SECTION 13.3 Exculpatory Provisions. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact, Subsidiaries or Affiliates shall be (a) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (except for actions occasioned solely by its or such Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct), or (b) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or for any failure of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Administrative Agent shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries.

SECTION 13.4 Reliance by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless such Note shall have been transferred in accordance with Section 14.10. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders (or, when expressly required hereby or by the relevant other Loan Documents, all the Lenders) as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the Notes in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or, when expressly required hereby, all the Lenders), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Notes.

SECTION 13.5 Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default (except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders) unless it has received notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, it shall promptly give notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders (or, when expressly required hereby, all the Lenders); provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders, except to the extent that other provisions of this Agreement expressly require that any such action be taken or not be taken only with the consent and authorization or the request of the Lenders or Required Lenders, as applicable.

SECTION 13.6 Non-Reliance on the Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its respective officers, directors,

employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact, Subsidiaries or Affiliates has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and made its own decision to make its Loans and issue or participate in Letters of Credit hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder or by the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries which may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact, Subsidiaries or Affiliates.

SECTION 13.7 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such and (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), ratably according to the respective amounts of their Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages or Term Loan Percentages, as applicable, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time (including, without limitation, at any time following the payment of the Notes or any Reimbursement Obligation) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or any documents, reports or other information provided to the Administrative Agent or any Lender or contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting solely from the Administrative Agent’s bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section 13.7 shall survive the payment of the Notes, any Reimbursement Obligation and all other amounts payable hereunder and the termination of this Agreement.

SECTION 13.8 The Administrative Agent in its Individual Capacity. The Administrative Agent and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower as though the Administrative Agent was not the Administrative Agent hereunder. With respect to any Loans made or renewed by it and any Note issued to it and with respect to any Letter of Credit issued by it or participated in by it, the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity.

SECTION 13.9 Resignation of the Administrative Agent; Successor Administrative Agent. Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor as provided below, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such

resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which successor shall have minimum capital and surplus of at least Five Hundred Million Dollars ($500,000,000). If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which successor shall have minimum capital and surplus of at least Five Hundred Million Dollars ($500,000,000). Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 13.9 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 Administrative Agent.

(a) In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under Applicable Law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon and after the occurrence of any Event of Default and during the continuance thereof, the Lenders and any assignee or participant of a Lender in accordance with Section 14.10 are hereby authorized by the Borrower at any time or from time to time, without notice to the Borrower or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, including, but not limited to, indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured) and any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by the Lenders, or any such assignee or participant to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against and on account of the Obligations irrespective of whether or not (a) the Lenders shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or (b) the Administrative Agent shall have declared any or all of the Obligations to be due and payable as permitted by Section 12.2 and although such Obligations shall be contingent or unmatured.

The Borrower hereby irrevocably consents to the service of a summons and complaint and other process in any action, claim or proceeding brought by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with this Agreement, the Notes or the other Loan Documents, any rights or obligations hereunder or thereunder, or the performance of such rights and obligations, on behalf of itself or its property, in the manner specified in Section 14.1 (other than by posting on an internet web page).

SECTION 14.8 Injunctive Relief; Punitive Damages.

(a) The Borrower recognizes that, in the event the Borrower fails to perform, observe or discharge any of its obligations or liabilities under this Agreement, any remedy of law may prove to be inadequate relief to the Lenders.

(b) The Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower (on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries) hereby agree that no such Person shall have a remedy of punitive or exemplary damages against any other party to a Loan Document and each such Person hereby waives any right or claim to punitive or exemplary damages that they may now have or may arise in the future in connection with any Dispute, whether such Dispute is resolved through arbitration or judicially.

Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all terms of an accounting or financial nature shall be construed in accordance with GAAP, as in effect from time to time, provided that, if the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent that the Borrower requests an amendment to any provision hereof to eliminate the effect of any change occurring after the date hereof in GAAP or in the application thereof on the operation of such provision (or if the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that the Required Lenders request an amendment to any provision hereof for such purpose), regardless of whether any such notice is given before or after such change in GAAP or in the application thereof, then such provision shall be interpreted on the basis of GAAP as in effect and applied immediately before such change shall have become effective until such notice shall have been withdrawn or such provision amended in accordance therewith; provided further that, until four (4) complete Fiscal Quarters have elapsed after the consummation by the Borrower of the acquisition of any business (including but not limited to the Acquisition), the calculation of all income statement and cash flow items shall be determined on a pro forma basis as if such acquisition had taken place on the first day of the period for which such calculation is made, using reasonable estimates agreed to by the Administrative Agent and based upon assumptions as to cost savings and synergies furnished by the Borrower in reasonable detail (provided that adjustments to EBITDA attributable to such assumptions shall in no event exceed ten percent (10%) of EBITDA (as calculated before giving effect to such adjustments)).

SECTION 14.10 Successors and Assigns; Participations.

(a) Benefit of Agreement. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, all future holders of the Notes, and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Borrower shall not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of each Lender.

(b) Assignment by Lenders. Each Lender may, in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with Applicable Law, sell or assign to any Lender, any Affiliate of a Lender or in the case of the Term Loans any Approved Fund and with the consent of the Borrower (so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) and the consent of the Administrative Agent, which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, assign to one or more other Eligible Assignees (any of the foregoing assignees or purchasers, a “Purchasing Lender”) all or a portion of its interests, rights and

obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, all or a portion of the Extensions of Credit at the time owing to it and the Notes held by it); provided that:

(i) each such assignment shall be of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of the Revolving Credit Commitment and/or the Term Loan Commitment, as applicable, of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement;

(ii) if less than all of the assigning Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment or Term Loan Commitment, as applicable, is to be assigned, the Commitment so assigned shall not be less than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility and One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) (or otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and Borrower) with respect to the Term Loan Facility, unless such sale or assignment is made to an existing Lender, to an Affiliate thereof, or (with respect to any Term Loan) to an Approved Fund, in which case no minimum amount shall apply;

(iii) the Purchasing Lender shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent all United States Internal Revenue Service Forms required pursuant to Section 5.11(e) and all of the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, an Assignment and Acceptance substantially in the form of Exhibit H attached hereto (an “Assignment and Acceptance”), together with (to the extent requested by any Purchasing Lender) any Note or Notes subject to such assignment;

(iv) no assignment of a Revolving Credit Commitment, or participation in L/C Obligations or Swingline Loans shall be made without the prior written consent of the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Lender and (so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) the Borrower (which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed);

(v) where consent of the Borrower to an assignment to a Purchasing Lender is required hereunder (including consent to an assignment to an Approved Fund), the Borrower shall be deemed to have given its consent five (5) Business Days after the date written notice thereof has been delivered by the assigning Lender (through the Administrative Agent) unless such consent is expressly refused by the Borrower prior to such fifth Business Day;

(vi) such assignment shall not, without the consent of the Borrower, require the Borrower to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission or apply to or qualify the Loans or the Notes under the blue sky laws of any state; and

(vii) unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent, the assigning Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent an assignment fee of Three Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($3,500) upon the execution by such Lender of the Assignment and Acceptance; provided that no such fee shall be payable upon any assignment by a Lender to an Affiliate thereof; and provided further that, in any case of contemporaneous assignments by a Lender (including a group of affiliated Lenders that are funds managed by the same investment advisor) to a single assignee or more than one fund managed by the same investment advisor (which funds are not then Lenders hereunder), only a single Three Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($3,500) fee shall be payable for all such contemporaneous assignments.

Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, which effective date shall be at least five (5) Business Days after the execution thereof (unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent), (A) the Purchasing Lender thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereby and (B) the Lender thereunder shall, to the extent provided in such assignment, be released from its obligations under this Agreement.

(d) Register. The Administrative Agent shall maintain a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the amount of the Extensions of Credit with respect to each Lender from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. No Lender shall be entitled to inspect or require the Administrative Agent to furnish to it any information contained in the Register, including without limitation the identity of any other Lender; provided that the Administrative Agent shall, at the request of any Lender, furnish to such Lender information (including extracts) from the Register to the extent necessary to enable such Lender to verify or establish (including as proof in any legal proceeding) amounts due and owing by the Borrower to such Lender.

(e) Issuance of New Notes. Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and a Purchasing Lender together with any Note or Notes (if applicable) subject to such assignment and (if applicable) the written consent to such assignment, the Administrative Agent shall, if such Assignment and Acceptance has been completed and is substantially in the form of Exhibit H:

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any Lender which has not been issued a Note or Notes hereunder may at any time deliver a written request for a Note or Notes to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower. Within five (5) Business Days after receipt of notice, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, a Note or Notes (as applicable) to the order of such Lender in amounts equal to the Revolving Credit Commitment and/or Term Loan Commitment of such Lender. Upon receipt thereby, the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver such Note or Notes to such Lender.

Applicable Law, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (any such bank or other entity, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Extensions of Credit and the Notes held by it); provided that:

(i) each such participation shall be in an amount not less than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility and One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) with respect to the Term Loan Facility;

(v) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement;

(vi) such Lender shall not permit such Participant the right to approve any waivers, amendments or other modifications to this Agreement or any other Loan Document other than waivers, amendments or modifications which would reduce the principal of or the interest rate on any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation, extend the term or increase the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment and/or Term Loan Commitment of such Lender, reduce the amount of any fees to which such Participant is entitled, extend any scheduled payment date for principal of any Loan or, except as expressly contemplated hereby or thereby, release substantially all of the Collateral; and

(vii) any such disposition shall not, without the consent of the Borrower, require the Borrower to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission to apply to qualify the Loans or the Notes under the blue sky law of any state.

The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 5.7, Section 5.8, Section 5.9, Section 5.10, Section 5.11 and Section 14.3 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 14.10; provided that a Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 5.7, Section 5.8, Section 5.9, Section 5.10, and Section 5.11 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent and, with respect to any payment under Section 5.11, such Participant shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent all United States Internal Revenue Service Forms required pursuant to Section 5.11(e).

(g) Disclosure of Information; Confidentiality. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall hold all non-public information with respect to the Borrower obtained pursuant to the Loan Documents (or any Hedging Agreement with a Lender or the Administrative Agent) in accordance with their customary procedures for handling confidential information; provided that the Administrative Agent may disclose information relating to this Agreement to Gold Sheets and other similar bank trade publications, such information to consist of deal terms and other information customarily found in such publications and provided further, that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may disclose any such

information to the extent such disclosure is (i) required by law or requested or required pursuant to any legal process, (ii) requested by, or required to be disclosed to, any rating agency, or regulatory or similar authority (including, without limitation, the National Association of Insurance Commissioners) or (iii) used in any suit, action or proceeding for the purpose of defending itself, reducing its liability or protecting any of its claims, rights, remedies or interests under or in connection with the Loan Documents (or any Hedging Agreement with a Lender or the Administrative Agent). Any Lender may, in connection with any assignment, proposed assignment, participation or proposed participation pursuant to this Section 14.10, disclose to the Purchasing Lender, proposed Purchasing Lender, Participant, proposed Participant, or to any pledge referred to in Section 14.10(h), or to any direct or indirect contractual counterparty in swap agreements or such contractual counterparty’s professional advisor any information relating to the Borrower furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower; provided that prior to any such disclosure, each such Purchasing Lender, proposed Purchasing Lender, Participant or proposed Participant, pledge, contractual counterparty or professional advisor shall agree to be bound by the provisions of this Section 14.10(g). Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, each of the parties hereto (and each employee, representative or other agent of any such party) may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the U.S. tax treatment and U.S. tax structure of the transaction contemplated hereby and all materials of any kind (including opinions of other tax analyses) that are provided to such party relating to such U.S. tax treatment and U.S. tax structure, other than any information for which nondisclosure is reasonably necessary in order to comply with applicable securities laws.

(h) Certain Pledges or Assignments. Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to secure obligations of such Lender, including without limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. In the case of any Lender that is a fund that invests in bank loans, such Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or Administrative Agent, assign or pledge all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement, including the Loans and Notes or any other instrument evidencing its rights as a Lender under this Agreement, to any holder or, trustee for, or any other representative of holders of, obligations owed or securities issued, by such fund, as security for such obligations or securities; provided that any foreclosure or similar action by such trustee or representative shall be subject to the provisions of Section 14.10(b) concerning assignments.

SECTION 14.17 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and shall be binding upon all parties, their successors and assigns, and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

(b) The Borrower expressly acknowledges and agrees that each covenant contained in Article IX, X, or XI hereof shall be given independent effect. Accordingly, the Borrower shall not engage in any transaction or other act otherwise permitted under any covenant contained in Article IX, X, or XI if, before or after giving effect to such transaction or act, the Borrower shall or would be in breach of any other covenant contained in Article IX, X, or XI.

SECTION 14.22 Increase of Revolving Credit Commitments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and one or more financial institutions (including any existing Lender) may from time to time enter into an amendment to this Agreement solely for the purpose of adding such financial institution as a Lender with a Revolving Credit Commitment under this Agreement (or, if such financial institution is already a Lender, increasing its Revolving Credit Commitment); provided that (a) after giving effect to such amendment, (i) the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments of all of the Lenders (including any new Lender) will not exceed Two Hundred Twenty-Five Million Dollars ($225,000,000) and (ii) the sum of (A) the aggregate amount of increases in the Revolving Credit Commitments made pursuant to this Section 14.22 plus (B) the aggregate amount of Incremental Term Loans shall not exceed One Hundred Fifty Million Dollars ($150,000,000), (b) on the effective date of such amendment the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans will be deemed to be reallocated among the Lenders (including any new Lender) so that such Revolving Credit Loans are pro rata to the Revolving Credit Commitments of all of the Lenders after giving effect to such amendment, and the new Lender (or the existing Lender whose Commitment is being increased) will pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the other Lenders such amount as is necessary to accomplish such result, (c) the Borrower shall simultaneously pay to each existing Lender any funding losses to be incurred by such lender in connection with the payment to be received by such Lender pursuant to clause (b) above, (d) on the effective date of such amendment such financial institution enters into a Lender Addendum accepted and agreed to by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with respect to the such Revolving Credit Commitment (or increase in its Revolving Credit Commitment, as the case may be) and (e) no Lender shall be obligated to enter into any such amendment or increase its Revolving Credit Commitment. Any such amendment shall be in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent who shall promptly provide a copy thereof to each Lender.

SECTION 14.23 Incremental Term Loans. In addition to borrowings of the Initial Term Loans pursuant to Article IV, at any time and from time to time prior to the Term Loan Maturity Date, the Borrower may request that one or more Persons (which may include any or all of the Lenders) offer to enter into commitments to make term loans (each such loan being herein called an “Incremental Term Loan”); provided that (a) no Default would exist after giving pro forma effect to the borrowing or the intended use of proceeds of such Incremental Term Loan, (b) if such offer is to be made by any Person that is not already a Lender hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall have consented (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to such Person being a Lender hereunder and (c) no Lender shall be obligated to make any such offer or participate in any Incremental Term Loans. In the event that one or more of such Persons offer, in their sole discretion, to enter into such commitments, and such Persons and the Borrower agree as to the amount of such commitments that shall be allocated to the respective Persons making such offers and the fees (if any) to be payable by the Borrower in connection therewith and the interest rate, amortization, maturity date and loan call protection to be applicable thereto, the Borrower, such Persons and the Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver an Incremental Term Loan Addendum with respect thereto, and such Persons shall become obligated to make Incremental Term Loans under this Agreement in an amount equal to the amount of their respective Incremental Term Loan Commitments as specified in such Incremental Term Loan Addendum. The Incremental Term Loans to be made pursuant to any such Incremental Term Loan Addendum in response to any such request by the Borrower shall be deemed to be a separate “Series” of Incremental Term Loans for all purposes of this Agreement.

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, (a) the minimum aggregate principal amount of Incremental Term Loan Commitments entered into pursuant to any such request (and, accordingly, the minimum aggregate principal amount of any Series of Incremental Term Loans) shall be Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000), (b) the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loan Commitments shall not exceed Five Hundred Fifteen Million Dollars ($515,000,000), (c) the sum of (i) the aggregate amount of increases in the Revolving Credit Commitments made pursuant to Section 14.22 plus (ii) the aggregate

amount of all Incremental Term Loans shall not exceed One Hundred Fifty Million Dollars ($150,000,000), (d) the final maturity for the Incremental Term Loans of any Series shall not be earlier than the Term Loan Maturity Date, (e) the weighted average life to maturity (determined in a manner satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) of the Incremental Term Loans of any Series at the time of the making thereof shall not be shorter than the then-remaining weighted average life to maturity (so determined) of the Initial Term Loans and (f) except for the amortization, maturity date, interest rate and loan call protection to be applicable thereto, and any fees to be paid in connection therewith, the Incremental Term Loans of any Series shall have the same terms as the Initial Term Loans.

L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower in accordance with said Act.
