Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and relying upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, each Lender severally agrees to make Revolving Credit Loans in either Dollars or one or more Optional Currencies to the Borrower at any time or from time to time on or after the Closing Date to the Expiration Date, provided that (i) after giving effect to each such Loan the aggregate Dollar Equivalent amount of Loans from such Lender shall not exceed such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment minus such Lender’s Ratable Share of the Dollar Equivalent amount of Letters of Credit Outstanding and further minus such Lender’s Ratable Share of outstanding Swing Loans, and (ii) no Loan to which the Base Rate Option applies shall be made in an Optional Currency, and provided, further that the Dollar Equivalent Revolving Facility Usage at any time shall not exceed the Revolving Credit Commitments of all the Lenders. Within such limits of time and amount and subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow pursuant to this Section 2.1.

2.2 Swing Loan Commitment.

2.2.1 Swing Loans.

Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and relying upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, and in order to facilitate loans and repayments

between Settlement Dates, PNC Bank may, at its option, cancelable at any time for any reason whatsoever, make Swing Loans to the Borrower at any time or from time to time after the Closing Date to, but not including, the Expiration Date, in an aggregate principal amount up to but not in excess of $15,000,000.00 (the “Swing Loan Commitment”), provided that the Dollar Equivalent Revolving Facility Usage at any time, shall not exceed the Revolving Credit Commitments of all the Lenders. Within such limits of time and amount and subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow pursuant to this Section 2.2.1.

2.3 Nature of Lenders’ Obligations with Respect to Revolving Credit Loans.

Each Lender shall be obligated to participate in each request for Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to Section 2.5 [Revolving Credit Loan Requests; Swing Loan Requests] in accordance with its Ratable Share. The aggregate Dollar Equivalent amount of each Lender’s Revolving Credit Loans outstanding hereunder to the Borrower at any time shall never exceed its Revolving Credit Commitment minus its Ratable Share of the sum of the Dollar Equivalent amount of Letters of Credit Outstanding, subject to Section 4.5.6 [Mandatory Prepayment Currency Fluctuations] plus the then outstanding amount of the Swing Loans not being repaid with the Revolving Credit Loan then being requested, if any. The obligations of each Lender hereunder are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to perform its obligations hereunder shall not affect the Obligations of the Borrower to any other party nor shall any other party be liable for the failure of such Lender to perform its obligations hereunder. The Lenders shall have no obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans hereunder on or after the Expiration Date except in accordance with Section 2.10.3.3 in the case of any Letter of Credit drawn on or after the Expiration Date.

2.4 Commitment Fees.

Accruing from the date hereof until the Expiration Date, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent in Dollars for the account of each Lender, as consideration for such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment hereunder, a nonrefundable commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”) equal to the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed) on the average daily difference between the amount of (i) such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment as the same may be constituted from time to time (for purposes of this computation, PNC Bank’s Swing Loans shall be deemed to be borrowed amounts under its Revolving Credit Commitment) and (ii) the sum of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Loans outstanding plus its Ratable Share of Letters of Credit Outstanding, provided, however, that any Commitment Fee accrued with respect to the Revolving Credit Commitment of a Defaulting Lender during the period prior to the time such Lender became a Defaulting Lender and unpaid at such time shall not be payable by the Borrower so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender except to the extent that such Commitment Fee shall otherwise have been due and payable by the Borrower prior to such time; and provided further that no Commitment Fee shall accrue with respect to the Revolving Commitment of a Defaulting Lender so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender. For the purpose of calculating the Commitment Fee as set forth in this Section 2.4, amounts of any Revolving Credit Loans outstanding and/or Letters of Credit Outstanding which are denominated

in any Optional Currency shall be converted to the Dollar Equivalent. Subject to the provisos in the first sentence of this section, all Commitment Fees shall be payable in arrears on the first day of each July, October, January and April after the date hereof and on the Expiration Date or upon acceleration of the Loans.

2.5 Revolving Credit Loan Requests; Swing Loan Requests.

The Agent shall, promptly after receipt by it of a Loan Request pursuant to Section 2.5 [Revolving Credit Loan Requests; Swing Loan Requests], notify the Lenders of its receipt of such Loan Request specifying: (i) the proposed Borrowing Date and the time and method of disbursement of the Revolving Credit Loans requested thereby; (ii) the amount and type of each such Revolving Credit Loan and the applicable Interest Period (if any); (iii) the currency in which such Revolving Credit Loan is made; and (iv) the apportionment among the Lenders of such Revolving Credit Loans as determined by the Agent in accordance with Section 2.3 [Nature of Lenders’ Obligations with Respect to Revolving Credit Loans]. Each Lender shall remit the principal amount of each Revolving Credit Loan to the Agent such that the Agent is able to, and the Agent shall, to the extent the Lenders have made funds available to it for such purpose and subject to Section 6.2 [Each Additional Loan or Letter of Credit], fund such Revolving Credit Loans to the Borrower in U.S. Dollars or the Optional Currency as the Borrower shall have requested, and immediately available funds at the Principal Office prior to 2:00 p.m., Pittsburgh time, on the applicable Borrowing Date, provided that if any Lender fails to remit such funds to the Agent in a timely manner, the Agent may elect in its sole discretion to fund with its own funds the Revolving Credit Loans of such Lender on such Borrowing Date, and such Lender shall be subject to the repayment obligation in Section 9.12 [Availability of Funds].

2.8 Use of Proceeds.

The proceeds of the Revolving Credit Loans shall be used to refinance existing Indebtedness, to fund the repurchase of existing common equity of the Borrower, and for general corporate purposes of the Borrower and in accordance with Section 7.1.10 [Use of Proceeds];

provided, however, that none of the Commitments or the Loans shall be used for currency speculation or similar purposes.

2.9 Borrowings to Repay Swing Loans.

PNC Bank may, at its option, exercisable at any time for any reason whatsoever, demand repayment of the Swing Loans, and each Lender shall make a Revolving Credit Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Ratable Share of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Swing Loans, plus, if PNC Bank so requests, accrued interest thereon, provided that no Lender shall be obligated in any event to make Revolving Credit Loans in excess of its Revolving Credit Commitment, minus its Ratable Share of Letter of Credit Obligations. Revolving Credit Loans made pursuant to the preceding sentence shall bear interest at the Base Rate Option and shall be deemed to have been properly requested in accordance with Section 2.5.1 [Revolving Credit Loan Requests] without regard to any of the requirements of that provision.

Each Letter of Credit shall be a Standby Letter of Credit (and may not be a Commercial Letter of Credit) and may be denominated in either Dollars or an Optional Currency. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and in reliance on the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this Section 2.10, the Agent or any of the Agent’s Affiliates will issue a Letter of Credit provided that each Letter of Credit shall (i) have a maximum maturity of twelve (12) months from the date of issuance, (ii) in no event expire later than (a) for Letters of Credit denominated in an Optional Currency, the Expiration Date, and (b) for Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars, one hundred eighty (180) days after the Expiration Date, and (iii) in no event be amended to increase the amount thereof following the issuance thereof unless the conditions set forth in Section 6.2 [Each Additional Loan or Letter of Credit] have been satisfied as of the date of such amendment (treating such date the same as the date of issuance of a Letter of Credit) and provided further that in no event shall (a) the Dollar Equivalent amount of Letters of Credit Outstanding exceed, at any one time, $20,000,000.00 or (b) the Dollar Equivalent Revolving Facility Usage exceed, at any one time, the Revolving Credit Commitments. It is expressly agreed that each Existing Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be a

Letter of Credit for all purposes of this Agreement and each other Loan Document. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the Agent shall not be required to issue any Letter of Credit, if any Lender is at such time a Defaulting Lender hereunder, unless the Agent has entered into arrangements satisfactory to the Agent with the Borrower or such Defaulting Lender to eliminate the Agent’s risk with respect to such Defaulting Lender.

2.10.2 Letter of Credit Fees.

The Borrower shall pay in Dollars (i) to the Agent for the ratable account of the Lenders a fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) equal to the Applicable Letter of Credit Fee per annum, and (ii) to the Agent for its own account a fronting fee equal to 1/8% per annum (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed), which fees shall be computed on the daily average Dollar Equivalent amount of Letters of Credit Outstanding and shall be payable quarterly in arrears commencing with the first day of each January, April, July and October following issuance of each Letter of Credit and on the Expiration Date. The Borrower shall also pay to the Agent in Dollars for the Agent’s sole account the Agent’s then in effect customary fees and administrative expenses payable with respect to the Letters of Credit as the Agent may generally charge or incur from time to time in connection with the issuance, maintenance, modification (if any), assignment or transfer (if any), negotiation, and administration of Letters of Credit.

2.10.3 Disbursements, Reimbursement.

2.10.3.1 Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Agent a participation in such Letter of Credit and each drawing thereunder in an amount equal to such Lender’s Ratable Share of the maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit and the amount of such drawing, respectively.

2.10.3.2 In the event of any request for a drawing under a Letter of Credit by the beneficiary or transferee thereof, the Agent will promptly notify the Borrower. Provided that it shall have received such notice, the Borrower shall reimburse (such obligation to reimburse the Agent shall sometimes be referred to as a “Reimbursement Obligation”) the Agent in Dollars prior to 12:00 noon, Pittsburgh time on each date that an amount is paid by the Agent under any Letter of Credit (each such date, an “Drawing Date”) in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent amount so paid by the Agent. In the event the Borrower fails to reimburse the Agent for the full Dollar Equivalent amount of any drawing under any Letter of Credit by 12:00 noon, Pittsburgh time, on the Drawing Date, the Agent will promptly notify each Lender thereof, and the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested that Revolving Credit Loans be made by the Lenders in Dollars under the Base Rate Option to be disbursed on the Drawing Date under such Letter of Credit, subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Revolving Credit Commitment and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 6.2 [Each Additional Loan or Letter of Credit] other than any notice requirements. Any notice given by the Agent pursuant to this Section 2.10.3.2 may be oral if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

2.10.3.3 Each Lender shall, upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.10.3.2, make available to the Agent an amount in Dollars in immediately available funds equal to its Ratable Share of the Dollar Equivalent amount of the drawing minus, in the event of any drawing after the Expiration Date, any amount applied by the Agent against such drawing from amounts deposited to Cash Collateralize such Obligations pursuant to Section 2.10.10 [Cash Collateral] (whether or not the conditions set forth in Section 6.2 [Each Additional Loan or Letter of Credit] have been satisfied), whereupon the participating Lenders shall (subject to Section 2.10.3.4) each be deemed to have made a Revolving Credit Loan under the Base Rate Option to the Borrower in that amount. If any Lender so notified fails to make available in Dollars to the Agent for the account of the Agent the amount of such Lender’s Ratable Share of such Dollar Equivalent amount by no later than 2:00 p.m., Pittsburgh time on the Drawing Date, then interest shall accrue, and shall be payable by such Lender on demand, on such Lender’s obligation to make such payment, from the Drawing Date to the date on which such Lender makes such payment (i) at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate during the first three days following the Drawing Date, and (ii) at a rate per annum equal to the rate applicable to Loans under the Base Rate Option on and after the fourth day following the Drawing Date. The Agent will promptly give notice of the occurrence of the Drawing Date, but failure of the Agent to give any such notice on the Drawing Date or in sufficient time to enable any Lender to effect such payment on such date shall not relieve such Lender from its obligation under this Section 2.10.3.3.

2.10.3.4 With respect to any unreimbursed drawing that is not converted into Revolving Credit Loans under the Base Rate Option to the Borrower in whole or in part as contemplated by Section 2.10.3.2, because of the Borrower’s failure to satisfy the conditions set forth in Section 6.2 [Each Additional Loan or Letter of Credit] other than any notice requirements or for any other reason, the Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the Agent a borrowing (each a “Letter of Credit Borrowing”) in Dollars in the Dollar Equivalent amount of such drawing. Such Letter of Credit Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the rate per annum applicable to the Revolving Credit Loans under the Base Rate Option. Each Lender’s payment to the Agent pursuant to Section 2.10.3.3 shall be deemed to be a payment in respect of its participation in such Letter of Credit Borrowing and shall constitute a “Participation Advance” from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.10.3.

2.10.4 Repayment of Participation Advances.

2.10.4.1 Upon (and only upon) receipt by the Agent for its account of immediately available funds from the Borrower (i) in reimbursement of any payment made by the Agent under the Letter of Credit with respect to which any Lender has made a Participation Advance to the Agent, or (ii) in payment of interest on such a payment made by the Agent under such a Letter of Credit, the Agent will pay to each Lender, in the same funds as those received by the Agent, the amount of such Lender’s Ratable Share of such funds, except the Agent shall retain the amount of the Ratable Share of such funds of any Lender that (a) did not make a Participation Advance in respect of such payment by Agent, or (b) is a Defaulting Lender in such latter case, up to the amount by which such Defaulting Lender has defaulted.

2.10.4.2 If the Agent is required at any time to return to any Loan Party, or to a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian, or any official in any Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise, any portion of the payments made by any Loan Party to the Agent pursuant to Section 2.10.4.1 in reimbursement of a payment made under the Letter of Credit or interest or fee thereon, each Lender shall, on demand of the Agent, forthwith return to the Agent the amount of its Ratable Share of any amounts so returned by the Agent plus interest thereon from the date such demand is made to the date such amounts are returned by such Lender to the Agent, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate in effect from time to time.

2.10.5 Documentation.

Each Loan Party agrees to be bound by the terms of the Agent’s application and agreement for letters of credit and the Agent’s written regulations and customary practices relating to letters of credit, though such interpretation may be different from such Loan Party’s own. In the event of a conflict between such application or agreement and this Agreement, this Agreement shall govern. It is understood and agreed that, except in the case of gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, the Agent shall not be liable for any error, negligence and/or mistakes, whether of omission or commission, in following any Loan Party’s instructions or those contained in the Letters of Credit or any modifications, amendments or supplements thereto.

2.10.6 Determinations to Honor Drawing Requests.

In determining whether to honor any request for drawing under any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof, the Agent shall be responsible only to determine that the documents and certificates required to be delivered under such Letter of Credit have been delivered and that they comply on their face with the requirements of such Letter of Credit.

2.10.7 Nature of Participation and Reimbursement Obligations.

(xiii) the fact that the Expiration Date shall have passed or this Agreement or the Commitments hereunder shall have been terminated, provided however, that the Lenders’ obligation to fund Participation Advances after the Expiration Date shall terminate ten (10) Business Days after the expiration of the last Letter of Credit issued hereunder with no demand for funding having been made by the Agent or issuing Lender prior to the end of such ten (10) Business Day period; and

(xiv) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

2.10.8 Indemnity.

In addition to amounts payable as provided in Section 9.8 [Reimbursement and Indemnification of Agent by Borrower], the Borrower hereby agrees to protect, indemnify, pay and save harmless the Agent and any of Agent’s Affiliates that has issued a Letter of Credit from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, taxes, penalties, interest, judgments, losses, costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of counsel and allocated costs of internal counsel) which the Agent or any of Agent’s Affiliates may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of the issuance of any Letter of Credit, other than as a result of (i) the gross negligence, bad faith, or willful misconduct of the Agent as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or (ii) the wrongful dishonor by the Agent or any of Agent’s Affiliates of a proper demand for payment made under any Letter of Credit, except if such dishonor resulted from any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto government or governmental authority (all such acts or omissions herein called “Governmental Acts”).

2.10.9 Liability for Acts and Omissions.

As between any Loan Party and the Agent, or the Agent’s Affiliates, such Loan Party assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit by, the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Agent shall not be responsible for any of the following including any losses or damages to any Loan Party or other Person or property relating therefrom: (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for an issuance of any such Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged (even if the Agent or the Agent’s Affiliates shall have been notified thereof); (ii) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any such Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) the failure of the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit, or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred, to comply fully with any conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit or any

other claim of any Loan Party against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit, or any such transferee, or any dispute between or among any Loan Party and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any such transferee; (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (v) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any such Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; (vii) the misapplication by the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; or (viii) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the Agent or the Agent’s Affiliates, as applicable, including any Governmental Acts, and none of the above shall affect or impair, or prevent the vesting of, any of the Agent’s or the Agent’s Affiliates rights or powers hereunder. Nothing in the preceding sentence shall relieve the Agent from liability for the Agent’s bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with actions or omissions described in such clauses (i) through (viii) of such sentence, as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. In no event shall the Agent or the Agent’s Affiliates be liable to any Loan Party for any indirect, consequential, incidental, punitive, exemplary or special damages or expenses (including without limitation attorneys’ fees), or for any damages resulting from any change in the value of any property relating to a Letter of Credit.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent and each of its Affiliates (a) may rely on any oral or other communication believed in good faith by the Agent or such Affiliate to have been authorized or given by or on behalf of the applicant for a Letter of Credit, (b) may honor any presentation if the documents presented appear on their face substantially to comply with the terms and conditions of the relevant Letter of Credit; (c) may honor a previously dishonored presentation under a Letter of Credit, whether such dishonor was pursuant to a court order, to settle or compromise any claim of wrongful dishonor, or otherwise, and shall be entitled to reimbursement to the same extent as if such presentation had initially been honored, together with any interest paid by the Agent or its Affiliate; (d) may honor any drawing that is payable upon presentation of a statement advising negotiation or payment, upon receipt of such statement (even if such statement indicates that a draft or other document is being delivered separately), and shall not be liable for any failure of any such draft or other document to arrive, or to conform in any way with the relevant Letter of Credit; (e) may pay any paying or negotiating bank claiming that it rightfully honored under the laws or practices of the place where such bank is located; and (f) may settle or adjust any claim or demand made on the Agent or its Affiliate in any way related to any order issued at the applicant’s request to an air carrier, a letter of guarantee or of indemnity issued to a carrier or any similar document (each an “Order”) and honor any drawing in connection with any Letter of Credit that is the subject to such Order, notwithstanding that any drafts or other documents presented in connection with such Letter of Credit fail to conform in any way with such Letter of Credit.

In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific provisions set forth above, any action taken or omitted by the Agent or the Agent’s Affiliates under or in connection with the Letters of Credit issued by it or any documents and certificates delivered thereunder, if taken or omitted in good faith, shall not put the Agent or the Agent’s Affiliates under any resulting liability to the Borrower or any Lender.

2.10.10 Cash Collateral.

If, on the Expiration Date, there exists any Letters of Credit outstanding for any reason, the Borrower shall immediately Cash Collateralize the aggregate amount then or thereafter available for draw under all outstanding Letters of Credit. The Borrower hereby grants to the Agent, for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders, a security interest in all cash collateral pledged pursuant to this Section or otherwise under this Agreement.

2.11 Utilization of Commitments in Optional Currencies.

2.11.1 Periodic Computations of Dollar Equivalent Amounts of Loans and Letters of Credit Outstanding.

The Agent will determine the Dollar Equivalent amount of (i) proposed Revolving Credit Loans or Letters of Credit to be denominated in an Optional Currency as of the requested Borrowing Date or date of issuance, as the case may be, and (ii) outstanding Revolving Credit Loans and Letters of Credit denominated in an Optional Currency as of the end of each Interest Period (each such date under clauses (i) and (ii), a “Computation Date”).

2.11.2 Notices From Lenders That Optional Currencies Are Unavailable to Fund New Loans.

The Lenders shall be under no obligation to make the Revolving Credit Loans requested by the Borrower which are denominated in an Optional Currency, nor shall the Agent be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit denominated in an Optional Currency if any Lender notifies the Agent by 5:00 p.m. (Pittsburgh time) four (4) Business Days prior to the Borrowing Date for such Revolving Credit Loans, or issuance date for such Letter of Credit, that such Lender cannot provide its share of such Revolving Credit Loans, or its Participation Advance, in such Optional Currency due to the introduction of, or any change in, any applicable Law or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Official Body charged with the administration or interpretation thereof, or compliance by such Lender (or any of its lending offices) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of Law) of any such Official Body which would make it unlawful or impossible for such Lender (or any of its lending offices) to honor its obligations to make a Loan or Participation Advance in an Optional Currency. In the event the Agent timely receives a notice from a Lender pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Agent will notify the Borrower no later than 12:00 noon (Pittsburgh time) three (3) Business Days prior to the Borrowing Date for such Revolving Credit Loans or issuance date of such Letter of Credit, as the case may be, that the Optional Currency is not then available for such Revolving Credit Loans or Letters of Credit, and the Agent shall promptly thereafter notify the Lenders of the same. If the Borrower receives a notice described in the preceding sentence, the Borrower may, by notice to the Agent not later than 5:00 p.m. (Pittsburgh time) three (3) Business Days prior to the Borrowing Date for such Revolving Credit Loans or issuance date of such Letter of Credit, withdraw the Loan Request for such Revolving Credit Loans or Letters of Credit. If the Borrower withdraws such Loan Request, the Agent will promptly notify each Lender of the same and the Lenders shall not make such Revolving Credit

Loans and the Agent shall not issue such Letter of Credit. If the Borrower does not withdraw such Loan Request before such time, (i) the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested that the Revolving Credit Loans or Letters of Credit referred to in its Loan Request shall be made in Dollars in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent amount of such Revolving Credit Loans or Letters of Credit, as the case may be, and any such Loan shall bear interest under the Base Rate Option, and (ii) the Agent shall promptly deliver a notice to each Lender stating: (a) that such Revolving Credit Loans or Letters of Credit shall be made in Dollars and shall bear interest under the Base Rate Option, (b) the aggregate amount of such Revolving Credit Loans and face amount of such Letters of Credit, and (c) such Lender’s Ratable Share of such Revolving Credit Loans.

2.11.3 Notices From Lenders That Optional Currencies Are Unavailable to Fund Renewals of the Euro-Rate Option.

If the Borrower delivers a Loan Request requesting that the Lenders renew the Euro-Rate Option with respect to an outstanding Borrowing Tranche of Revolving Credit Loans denominated in an Optional Currency, the Lenders shall be under no obligation to renew such Euro-Rate Option if any Lender delivers to the Agent a notice by 5:00 p.m. (Pittsburgh time) four (4) Business Days prior to effective date of such renewal that such Lender cannot continue to provide Revolving Credit Loans in such Optional Currency due to the introduction of, or any change in, any applicable Law or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Official Body charged with the administration or interpretation thereof, or compliance by such Lender (or any of its lending offices with) any request or directive (whether or not having the force of Law) of any such Official Body which would make it unlawful or impossible for such Lender (or any of its lending offices) to honor its obligations to make a Loan in an Optional Currency. In the event the Agent timely receives a notice from a Lender pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Agent will notify the Borrower no later than 12:00 noon (Pittsburgh time) three (3) Business Days prior to the renewal date that the renewal of such Revolving Credit Loans in such Optional Currency is not then available, and the Agent shall promptly thereafter notify the Lenders of the same. If the Agent shall have so notified the Borrower that any such continuation of Optional Currency Loans is not then available, any notice of renewal with respect thereto shall be deemed withdrawn, and such Optional Currency Loans shall be redenominated into Loans in Dollars subject to the Base Rate Option with effect from the last day of the Interest Period with respect to any such Optional Currency Loans. The Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of any such redenomination, and in such notice, the Agent will state the aggregate Dollar Equivalent amount of the redenominated Optional Currency Loans as of the Computation Date with respect thereto and such Lender’s Ratable Share thereof.

2.11.4 European Monetary Union.

2.11.4.1 Payments In Euros Under Certain Circumstances.

If, as a result of the implementation of the European monetary union, (i) any Optional Currency ceases to be lawful currency of the nation issuing the same and is replaced by a European common currency (the “Euro”) or (ii) any Optional Currency

and the Euro are at the same time recognized by any governmental authority of the nation issuing such currency as lawful currency of such nation and the Agent or the Required Lenders shall so request in a notice delivered to the Borrower, then any amount payable hereunder by any party hereto in such Optional Currency shall instead by payable in the Euro and the amount so payable shall be determined by translating the amount payable in such Optional Currency to the Euro at the exchange rate recognized by the European Central Lender for the purpose of implementing the European monetary union (and the provisions governing payments in Optional Currencies in this Agreement shall apply to such payment in the Euro as if such payment in the Euro were a payment in an Optional Currency). Prior to the occurrence of the event or events described in clause (i) or (ii) of the preceding sentence, each amount payable hereunder in any Optional Currency will continue to be payable only in that currency, except as otherwise provided herein.

2.11.4.2 Additional Compensation Under Certain Circumstances.

The Borrower agrees, at the request of any Lender to compensate such Lender for any loss, cost, expense or reduction in return that such Lender shall reasonably determine shall be incurred or sustained by such Lender as a result of the implementation of European monetary union and that would not have been incurred or sustained but for the transactions provided for herein. A certificate of any Lender setting forth such Lender’s determination of the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error so long as such determination is made on a reasonable basis. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.

2.11.5 Requests for Additional Optional Currencies.

The Borrower may deliver to the Agent a written request that Revolving Credit Loans hereunder also be permitted to be made in any other lawful currency (other than Dollars), in addition to the currencies specified in the definition of “Optional Currency” herein, provided that such currency must be freely traded in the offshore interbank foreign exchange markets, freely transferable, freely convertible into Dollars and available to the Lenders in the applicable interbank market. The Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of any such request promptly after the Agent receives such request. The Agent and each Lender may grant or accept such request in their sole discretion. The Agent will promptly notify the Borrower of the acceptance or rejection by the Agent and each of the Lenders of the Borrower’s request. The requested currency shall be approved as an Optional Currency hereunder only if the Agent and all of the Lenders approve of the Borrower’s request.

2.12 Currency Repayments.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the entire amount of principal of and interest on any Loan made in an Optional Currency shall be repaid in the same Optional Currency in which such Loan was made, provided, however, that if it is impossible or illegal for the Borrower to effect payment of a Loan in the Optional Currency in which such Loan was made, or if the Borrower defaults in its obligations to do so, the Required Lenders may at

their option permit such payment to be made (i) at and to a different location, subsidiary, affiliate or correspondent of Agent, or (ii) in the Equivalent Amount of Dollars or (iii) in an Equivalent Amount of such other currency (freely convertible into Dollars) as the Required Lenders may solely at their option designate. Upon any events described in (i) through (iii) of the preceding sentence, the Borrower shall make such payment and Borrower agrees to hold each Lender harmless from and against any loss incurred by any Lender arising from the cost to such Lender of any premium, any costs of exchange, the cost of hedging and covering the Optional Currency in which such Loan was originally made, and from any change in the value of Dollars, or such other currency, in relation to the Optional Currency that was due and owing. Such loss shall be calculated for the period commencing with the first day of the Interest Period for such Loan and continuing through the date of payment thereof. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of Borrower hereunder, Borrower’s obligations under this Section 2.12 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

2.13 Optional Currency Amounts.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Agent may, with respect to notices by the Borrower for Loans in an Optional Currency or voluntary prepayments of less than the full amount of an Optional Currency Borrowing Tranche, engage in reasonable rounding of the Optional Currency amounts requested to be loaned or repaid; and, in such event, the Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of such rounded amounts and the Borrower’s request or notice shall thereby be deemed to reflect such rounded amounts.

2.14 Right to Increase Revolving Credit Commitments.

Provided that there is no Event of Default or Potential Default, if the Borrower wishes to increase the Revolving Credit Commitments, the Borrower shall notify the Agent thereof, provided that any such increase shall be in a minimum of $10,000,000.00 and the aggregate of all such increases in the Revolving Credit Commitments shall not exceed $150,000,000.00 from and after the Closing Date. Each Lender shall have the right at any time within fifteen (15) Business Days following such notice to increase its respective Revolving Credit Commitment so as to provide such added commitment pro rata in accordance with such Lender’s Ratable Share, and any portion of such requested increase that is not provided by any Lender shall: (i) first be available to the other Lenders pro rata in accordance with their Ratable Share, (ii) next be available to the other Lenders in such a manner as the Borrower, the Agent and those Lenders shall agree, and (iii) thereafter, to the extent not provided by the Lenders, to any additional lender proposed by the Borrower, which is approved by the Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) and that becomes a party to this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.11 [Successors and Assigns]. In the event of any such increase in the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments effected pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.14, new Revolving Credit Notes shall, to the extent necessary, be executed and delivered by the Borrower in exchange for the surrender of the existing Revolving Credit Notes and the Agent shall amend Schedule 1.1(B) to reflect any additional Lender(s) and any change in Lenders’ Revolving Credit Commitments and Ratable Shares.

2.15 Defaulting Lenders.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

(i) fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.4 [Commitment Fees];

(ii) the Commitment and outstanding Loans of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder including any consent to an amendment waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 10.1 [Modifications, Amendments or Waivers]); provided, that this clause (ii) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of such Lender or each Lender directly affected thereby;

(iii) if any Swing Loans are outstanding or any Letters of Credit Outstanding exist at the time such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then:

(a) all or any part of the outstanding Swing Loans and of Letters of Credit Outstanding of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Ratable Shares but only to the extent that (1) the Revolving Facility Usage does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Credit Commitments, (2) no Potential Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at such time and (3) the representations and warranties of the Loan Parties contained in Section 5 shall be true in all material respects on the date of such reallocation as if made on such date (except for those which expressly relate solely to an earlier date);

(b) if the reallocation described in clause (a) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall within three (3) Business Days following notice by the Agent (1) first, prepay such outstanding Swing Loans, and (2) second, Cash Collateralize for the benefit of the Agent, as Letter of Credit issuer, the Borrower’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s Letters of Credit Outstanding (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (a) above) in a deposit account held at the Agent for so long as such Letters of Credit Outstanding are outstanding;

(c) if the Borrower Cash Collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Letters of Credit Outstanding pursuant to clause (b) above, the Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.10.2 [Letter of Credit Fees] with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Letters of Credit Outstanding during the period such Defaulting Lender’s Letters of Credit Outstanding are cash collateralized;

(d) if the Letters of Credit Outstanding of the non-Defaulting Lenders are reallocated pursuant to clause (a) above, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.10.2 shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting in Lenders’ Ratable Share; and

(e) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Letters of Credit Outstanding are neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clause (a) or (b) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Agent as the issuer of Letters of Credit or any other Lender hereunder; all Letter of Credit Fees payable under Section 2.9.2 with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Letters of Credit Outstanding shall be payable to the Agent as the issuing lender of Letters of Credit (and not to such Defaulting Lender) until and to the extent that such Letters of Credit Outstanding are reallocated and/or Cash Collateralized; and

(iv) so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Agent shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless the Agent is satisfied that the related exposure and the Defaulting Lender’s then Letters of Credit Outstanding will be 100% covered by the Revolving Credit Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.15(iii), and any participating interests in any newly made Swing Loan or any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a consistent with Section 2.15(iii)(a) (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein).

If (i) a Bankruptcy Event with respect to a parent company of any Lender shall occur following the date hereof and for so long as such event shall continue, or (ii) the Agent has a good faith belief that any Lender has defaulted in fulfilling its obligations under one or more other agreements in which such Lender commits to extend credit, the Agent shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless the Agent shall have entered into arrangement with the Borrower or such Lender, satisfactory to Agent to defease any risk to it in respect of such Lender hereunder.

In the event that the Agent, the Borrower and PNC Bank agree in writing that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Agent will so notify the parties hereto, and the Ratable Share of the Swing Loans and Letters of Credit Outstanding of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Commitment, and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders (other than Swing Loans) as the Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Ratable Share.

3. INTEREST RATES

3.1 Interest Rate Options.

The Borrower shall pay interest in respect of the outstanding unpaid principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans as selected by it from the Base Rate Option or Euro-Rate Option set forth below applicable to the Loans, it being understood that, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower may select different Interest Rate Options and different Interest Periods to apply simultaneously to the Loans comprising different Borrowing Tranches and may convert to or renew one or more Interest Rate Options with respect to all or any portion of the Loans comprising any Borrowing Tranche, provided that there shall not be at any one time outstanding more than ten (10) Borrowing Tranches in the aggregate among all of the Loans, and provided further that Swing Loans shall bear interest at the Daily Euro-Rate in effect from time

to time plus the percentage rate spread described in clause (ii) of the definition of Applicable Margin, and each time either the Daily Euro-Rate or the percentage rate spread described in such clause (ii) shall change, so shall the rate applicable to the Swing Loans change, effective immediately, unless PNC Bank and the Borrower otherwise mutually agree in writing that a different rate shall apply to Swing Loans, in which event such agreed upon alternate rate shall so apply to Swing Loans for the period for which PNC Bank and the Borrower shall agree, provided further that if an Event of Default or Potential Default is continuing, the Borrower may not request, convert or renew the Euro-Rate Option for any Dollar Loans. If at any time the designated rate applicable to any Loan made by any Lender exceeds such Lender’s highest lawful rate, the rate of interest on such Lender’s Loan shall be limited to such Lender’s highest lawful rate. Interest on the principal amount of each Loan made in an Optional Currency as provided in Section 2.11.4, shall be paid by the Borrower in such Optional Currency.

3.1.1 Interest Rate Options.

The Borrower shall have the right to select from the following Interest Rate Options applicable to the Revolving Credit Loans (subject to the provisions above regarding Swing Loans), except that no Loan to which a Base Rate shall apply may be made in an Optional Currency:

(i) Base Rate Option: A fluctuating rate per annum (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed), equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin, such interest rate to change automatically from time to time effective as of the effective date of each change in the Base Rate or Applicable Margin; or

(ii) Euro-Rate Option: A rate per annum (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed, provided that, for Loans made in an Optional Currency for which a 365 day basis is the only market practice available to the Agent, such rate shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 365 days, for the actual days) equal to the Euro-Rate plus the Applicable Margin, such interest rate to change automatically from time to time effective as of the effective date of each change in Applicable Margin.

3.1.2 Rate Quotations.

The Borrower may call the Agent on or before the date on which a Loan Request is to be delivered to receive an indication of the interest rates and the applicable currency exchange rates then in effect, but it is acknowledged that such projection shall not be binding on the Agent or the Lenders nor affect the rate of interest or the calculation of Equivalent Amounts which thereafter are actually in effect when the election is made.

3.2 Interest Periods.

At any time when the Borrower shall select, convert to or renew a Euro-Rate Option, the Borrower shall notify the Agent thereof by delivering a Loan Request no later than 11:00 a.m. (Pittsburgh time) at least (i) four (4) Business Days prior to the effective date of such Interest Rate Option, with respect to an Optional Currency Loan, and (ii) three (3) Business Days

prior to the effective date of such Interest Rate Option with respect to a Dollar Loan. The notice shall specify an Interest Period during which such Interest Rate Option shall apply. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the following provisions shall apply to any selection of, renewal of, or conversion to a Euro-Rate Option:

3.2.1 Amount of Borrowing Tranche.

The Dollar Equivalent amount of each Borrowing Tranche of Euro-Rate Loans shall be in integral multiples of $1,000,000.00 and not less than $5,000,000.00; and

3.2.2 Renewals.

In the case of the renewal of a Euro-Rate Option at the end of an Interest Period, the first day of the new Interest Period shall be the last day of the preceding Interest Period, without duplication in payment of interest for such day.

3.3 Interest After Default.

To the extent permitted by Law, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and until such time such Event of Default shall have been cured or waived, at the discretion of the Agent or upon written demand by the Required Lenders to the Agent:

3.3.1 Letter of Credit Fees, Interest Rate.

the Letter of Credit Fees and the rate of interest for each Loan otherwise applicable pursuant to Section 2.10.2 [Letter of Credit Fees] or Section 3.1 [Interest Rate Options], respectively, shall be increased by 2.0% per annum; and

3.3.2 Other Obligations.

each other Obligation hereunder if not paid when due shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the rate of interest applicable under the Interest Rate Option plus an additional two percent (2%) per annum from the time such Obligation becomes due and payable and until it is paid in full.

3.3.3 Acknowledgment.

The Borrower acknowledges that the increase in rates referred to in this Section 3.3 reflects, among other things, the fact that such Loans or other amounts have become a substantially greater risk given their default status and that the Lenders are entitled to additional compensation for such risk; and all such interest shall be payable by Borrower upon demand by Agent.

3.4 Euro-Rate Unascertainable; Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available.

3.4.1 Unascertainable.

If on any date on which a Euro-Rate would otherwise be determined, the Agent shall have determined that:

(i) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining such Euro-Rate, or

(ii) a contingency has occurred which materially and adversely affects the London interbank eurodollar market relating to the Euro-Rate,

then the Agent shall have the rights specified in Section 3.4.3 [Agent’s and Lender’s Rights].

3.4.2 Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available.

If at any time any Lender shall have determined that:

(i) the making, maintenance or funding of any Loan to which a Euro-Rate Option applies has been made impracticable or unlawful by compliance by such Lender in good faith with any Law or any interpretation or application thereof by any Official Body or with any request or directive of any such Official Body (whether or not having the force of Law), or

(ii) such Euro-Rate Option will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lender of the establishment or maintenance of any such Loan, or

(iii) after making all reasonable efforts, deposits of the relevant amount in Dollars or in the Optional Currency (as applicable) for the relevant Interest Period for a Loan, or to banks generally, to which a Euro-Rate Option applies, respectively, are not available to such Lender with respect to such Loan, or to banks generally, in the interbank eurodollar market,

then the Agent shall have the rights specified in Section 3.4.3 [Agent’s and Lender’s Rights].

3.4.3 Agent’s and Lender’s Rights.

In the case of any event specified in Section 3.4.1 [Unascertainable] above, the Agent shall promptly so notify the Lenders and the Borrower thereof, and in the case of an event specified in Section 3.4.2 [Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available] above, such Lender shall promptly so notify the Agent and endorse a certificate to such notice as to the specific circumstances of such notice, and the Agent shall promptly send copies of such notice and certificate to the other Lenders and the Borrower. Upon such date as shall be specified in such notice (which shall not be earlier than the date such notice is given), the obligation of (i) the Lenders, in the case of such notice given by the Agent, or (ii) such Lender, in the case of such notice given by such Lender, to allow the Borrower to select, convert to or renew a Euro-Rate Option or select an Optional Currency (as applicable) shall be suspended until the Agent shall

have later notified the Borrower, or such Lender shall have later notified the Agent, of the Agent’s or such Lender’s, as the case may be, determination that the circumstances giving rise to such previous determination no longer exist. If at any time the Agent makes a determination under Section 3.4.1 [Unascertainable] and the Borrower has previously notified the Agent of its selection of, conversion to or renewal of a Euro-Rate Option and such Interest Rate Option has not yet gone into effect, such notification shall be deemed to provide for the selection of, conversion to or renewal of the Base Rate Option otherwise available with respect to such Loans. If any Lender notifies the Agent of a determination under Section 3.4.2 [Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available], the Borrower shall, subject to the Borrower’s indemnification Obligations under Section 4.8 [Indemnity], as to any Loan of the Lender to which a Euro-Rate Option applies, on the date specified in such notice either, as applicable, (a) convert such Loan to the Base Rate Option otherwise available with respect to such Loan, or select a different Optional Currency or Dollars, or (b) prepay such Loan in accordance with Section 4.5 [Voluntary Prepayments, Mandatory Prepayments]. Absent due notice from the Borrower of conversion or prepayment, such Loan shall automatically be converted to the Base Rate Option otherwise available with respect to such Loan upon such specified date.

3.5 Selection of Interest Rate Options.

If the Borrower fails to select a new Interest Period or Optional Currency to apply to any Borrowing Tranche of Loans under the Euro-Rate Option at the expiration of an existing Interest Period applicable to such Borrowing Tranche in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.2 [Interest Periods], the Borrower shall be deemed to have converted such Borrowing Tranche to the Base Rate Option or to an Optional Currency Loan in the same Optional Currency, as applicable, commencing upon the last day of the existing Interest Period.

4. PAYMENTS

4.1 Payments.

All payments and prepayments to be made in respect of principal, interest, Commitment Fees, Letter of Credit Fees, Agent’s Fees, Optional Currency Loan Processing Fees or other fees or amounts due from the Borrower hereunder shall be payable prior to 11:00 a.m., Pittsburgh time, on the date when due without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower, and without set-off, counterclaim or other deduction of any nature, and an action therefore shall immediately accrue. Such payments shall be made to the Agent at the Principal Office for the account of PNC Bank with respect to the Swing Loans and for the ratable accounts of the Lenders with respect to the Revolving Credit Loans, in U.S. Dollars except that payment of principal or interest shall be made in the currency in which such Loan was made, and in immediately available funds, and the Agent shall promptly distribute such amounts to the Lenders in immediately available funds, provided that in the event payments are received by 11:00 a.m., Pittsburgh time, by the Agent with respect to the Loans and such payments are not distributed to the Lenders on the same day received by the Agent, the Agent shall pay the Lenders the Federal Funds Effective Rate in the case of Loans or other amounts due in Dollars, or the Overnight Rate in the case of Loans or other amounts due in an Optional Currency, with respect to the amount of such payments for

each day held by the Agent and not distributed to the Lenders. The Agent’s and each Lender’s statement of account, ledger or other relevant record shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive as the statement of the amount of principal of and interest on the Loans and other amounts owing under this Agreement (including the Equivalent Amounts of the applicable currencies where such computations are required) and shall be deemed an “account stated.”

4.2 Pro Rata Treatment of Lenders.

(i) Each borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans shall be allocated to each Lender according to its Ratable Share, and each selection of, conversion to or renewal of any Interest Rate Option applicable to Revolving Credit Loans, and each payment or prepayment by the Borrower with respect to principal or interest on the Revolving Credit Loans or Commitment Fees, Letter of Credit Fees, or other fees (except for the Agent’s Fee, the Optional Currency Loan Processing Fee, the fronting fee payable to the Agent as issuer of Letters of Credit, or other fees payable solely for the Agent’s account) or amounts due from the Borrower hereunder to the Lenders with respect to the Revolving Credit Loans, shall (except as otherwise provided with respect to a Defaulting Lender and except as provided in Section 3.4.3 [Agent’s and Lender’s Rights] in the case of an event specified in Section 3.4 [Euro-Rate Unascertainable; Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available], Section 4.5.2 [Replacement of a Lender] or Section 4.6 [Additional Compensation in Certain Circumstances]) be made in proportion to the applicable Loans outstanding from each Lender and, if no such Loans are then outstanding, in proportion to the Ratable Share of each Lender. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, each borrowing or payment or prepayment by the Borrower of principal, interest, fees or other amounts from the Borrower with respect to Swing Loans shall be made by or to PNC Bank for its own account according to Section 2 [Revolving Credit and Swing Loan Facilities] except for such Swing Loan borrowings that have been converted to Revolving Credit Loans in accordance with Section 2.9 [Borrowings to Repay Swing Loans].

(ii) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff, counterclaim or banker’s lien, by receipt of voluntary payment, by realization upon security, or by any other non-pro rata source, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or other Obligations held by it hereunder resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon or other such Obligations greater than the pro-rata share of the amount such Lender is entitled thereto, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and such other Obligations held by the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them, provided that:

(1) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, together with interest or other amounts, if any, required by Law (including court order) to be paid by the Lender or the holder making such purchase; and

(2) the provisions of this Section 4.2 shall not be construed to apply to (A) any payment made by the Loan Parties pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of the Loan Documents or (B) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or Participation Advances to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section 4.2 shall apply).

Each Loan Party consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against each Loan Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of each Loan Party in the amount of such participation.

4.3 Presumption by the Agent.

Unless the Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Agent hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or to itself as issuer of Letters of Credit, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders, severally agrees to repay to the Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender, with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it, but excluding the date of payment to the Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

4.4 Interest Payment Dates.

Interest on Loans to which the Base Rate Option applies shall be due and payable in arrears on the first day of each January, April, July and October after the date hereof and on the Expiration Date or upon acceleration of the Loans. Interest on Loans to which the Euro-Rate Option applies shall be due and payable in the currency in which such Loan was made on the last day of each Interest Period for those Loans and, if such Interest Period is longer than three (3) Months, also on the 90th day of such Interest Period. Interest on Swing Loans shall be due and payable on demand, and if demand is not sooner made, on the first day of each January, April, July and October. Interest on mandatory prepayments of principal under Section 4.5.6 [Mandatory Prepayment-Currency Fluctuations] shall be made in the currency in which such Loan was made and shall be due on the date such mandatory prepayment is due. Interest on the principal amount of each Loan or other monetary Obligation shall be due and payable in the currency in which such Loan was made on demand after such principal amount or other monetary Obligation becomes due and payable (whether on the stated maturity date, upon acceleration or otherwise).

4.5 Voluntary Prepayments, Mandatory Prepayments.

4.5.1 Right to Prepay.

The Borrower shall have the right at its option from time to time to prepay the Loans in whole or part without premium or penalty (except as provided in Section 4.5.2 [Replacement of a Lender], in Section 4.6 [Additional Compensation in Certain Circumstances]), or in Section 4.8 [Indemnity] in the currency in which such Loan was made:

(a) the date, which shall be a Business Day, on which the proposed prepayment is to be made;

(b) a statement indicating the application of the prepayment between the Swing Loans and Revolving Credit Loans; and

(c) the total principal amount and currency of such prepayment, the Dollar Equivalent amount of which shall not be less than $1,000,000.00 for any Swing Loan (or integral multiples of $500,000.00 thereabove) or not less than $5,000,000.00 (or integral multiples of $1,000,000.00 thereabove) for any Revolving Credit Loan subject to the Euro-Rate Option, or not less than $500,000.00 (or integral multiples of $100,000.00 thereabove) for any Revolving Credit Loan subject to the Base Rate Option.

All prepayment notices shall be irrevocable. The principal amount of the Loans for which a prepayment notice is given, together with interest on such principal amount except with respect to Revolving Credit Loans to which the Base Rate Option applies, shall be due and payable on the date specified in such prepayment notice as the date on which the proposed prepayment is to be made in the currency in which such Loan was made. Except as provided in Section 3.4.3 [Agent’s and Lender’s Rights], if the Borrower prepays a Revolving Credit Loan but fails to specify the applicable Borrowing Tranche which the Borrower is

prepaying, the prepayment shall be applied to Revolving Credit Loans (1) first, to which the Base Rate Option applies, then (2) to Dollar Revolving Credit Loans to which the Euro-Rate Option applies, and then (3) to Optional Currency Revolving Credit Loans. Any prepayment hereunder shall be subject to the Borrower’s Obligation to indemnify the Lenders under Section 4.8 [Indemnity]. Amounts prepaid on the Revolving Credit Loans shall be available for reborrowing subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

4.5.2 Replacement of a Lender.

(i) the Borrower shall have paid to the Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 10.11 [Successors and Assigns];

(ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and Participation Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 4.8 [Indemnity] from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts), including, without limitation, under Section 4.6.1 [Increased Costs Generally], Section 4.6.2 [Capital Requirements] and Section 4.7 [Taxes];

(iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 4.6.1 [Increased Costs Generally] or Section 4.6.2 [Capital Requirements] or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 4.7 [Taxes], such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and

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

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

Each Lender agrees that upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to increased costs or other special payments under Section 3.4.2 [Illegality, Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available] or Section 4.6.1 [Increased Costs, Generally] with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another lending office for any Loans or Letters of Credit affected by such event, provided that such designation is made on such terms that such Lender and its lending office suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, with the object of avoiding the consequence of the event giving rise to the operation of such Section. Nothing in this Section 4.5.3 shall affect or postpone any of the Obligations of the Borrower or any other Loan Party or the rights of the Agent or any Lender provided in this Agreement.

4.5.4 Voluntary Reduction of Revolving Credit Commitments.

The Borrower shall have the right, upon not less than three (3) Business Days’ written irrevocable notice to the Agent provided no later than 11:00 a.m. on the date such notice is provided, to terminate the Revolving Credit Commitments or, from time to time, to reduce the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments, which notice shall specify the date and amount of any such reduction and otherwise be substantially in the form of Exhibit 4.5.4 (a “Commitment Reduction Notice”). Any such reduction shall be in a minimum amount equal to $5,000,000.00 or in integral multiples of $1,000,000.00 thereabove, provided, that the Revolving Credit Commitments may not be reduced below the aggregate principal amount of all Dollar Equivalent Revolving Facility Usage. Each reduction of Revolving Credit Commitments shall ratably reduce the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders.

4.5.5 Application Among Interest Rate Options.

All prepayments pursuant to this Section 4.5 shall first be applied among the Interest Rate Options to the principal amount of the Loans subject to the Base Rate Option, then to Loans subject to a Euro-Rate Option and then to Optional Currency Loans.

If on any Computation Date the Dollar Equivalent Revolving Facility Usage is equal to or greater than 100% of the Revolving Credit Commitments as a result of a change in exchange rates between one (1) or more Optional Currencies and Dollars, then the Agent shall notify the Borrower of the same. The Borrower shall pay or prepay the Revolving Credit Loans (subject to Borrower’s indemnity obligations under Section 4.5 [Voluntary Prepayments, Mandatory Prepayments], Section 4.6 [Additional Compensation in Certain Circumstances] and Section 4.8 [Indemnity] within one (1) Business Day after receiving such

notice such that the Dollar Equivalent Revolving Facility Usage shall not exceed the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments after giving effect to such payments or prepayments.

4.5.7 Expiration Date.

Unless sooner paid in full in connection with the termination of the Commitments, the Borrower shall pay all outstanding Obligations hereunder, including without limitation, principal, interest and fees in Dollars in immediately available funds on the Expiration Date except in the case of any Letter of Credit Borrowing with respect to any such Letter of Credit drawn on or after the Expiration Date which such Letter of Credit Borrowing shall be due on demand in accordance with Section 2.10.3.4.

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

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or the Agent of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan, or to increase the cost to such Lender or the Agent of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or the Agent hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender or the Agent, which is provided to the Borrower with the certificate referred to in Section 4.6.3 [Certificates for Reimbursement; Repayment of Outstanding Loans; Borrowing of New Loans] the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Agent, as the case may be, in accordance with Section 4.6.3 [Certificates for Reimbursement; Repayment of Outstanding Loans; Borrowing of New Loans] and Section 4.6.4 [Delay in Requests] such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Agent, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

4.6.2 Capital Requirements.

If any Lender or the Agent determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or the Agent or any lending office of such Lender or such Lender’s or the Agent’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the Agent’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the Agent’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by the Agent, to a level below that which such Lender or the Agent or such Lender’s or the Agent’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the Agent’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the Agent’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity ), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Agent, as the case may be, in accordance with the terms of Section 4.6.3 [Certificates for Reimbursement; Repayment of Outstanding Loans; Borrowing of New Loans] and Section 4.6.4 [Delay in Requests] such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Agent or such Lender’s or the Agent’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

A certificate of a Lender or the Agent setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the Agent or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in Section 4.6.1 [Increased Costs Generally], Section 4.6.2 [Capital Requirements] or Section 4.6.5 [Additional Costs with Respect to Loans in Optional Currencies] and delivered to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or the Agent, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof, subject to the provisions of Section 4.6.5 [Additional Costs with Respect to Loans in Optional Currencies].

4.6.4 Delay in Requests.

Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Agent to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 4.6 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Agent’s right to demand such compensation, provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the Agent pursuant to this Section 4.6 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender or the Agent, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the Agent’s intention to claim compensation therefore (except that, if Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine (9) month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

4.6.5 Additional Costs with Respect to Loans in Optional Currencies.

In the event any Lender incurs costs in complying with minimum reserve requirements of any Official Body with respect to making or maintaining any Loans in an Optional Currency, then upon written request of such Lender to the Borrower (with copy to the Agent) which is accompanied by the certificate referred in Section 4.6.3 [Certificates for Reimbursement; Repayment of Outstanding Loans; Borrowing of New Loans], the Borrower will pay to the Agent for such Lender in accordance with Section 4.6.3 [Certificate for Reimbursement; Repayment of Outstanding Loans; Borrowing of New Loans] such additional amount or amounts as will reimburse such Lender for such additional costs it has incurred. At such Lender’s option, stated in its written request, such reimbursement may be calculated as an additional per annum rate to the interest rate applicable to any Loan in an Optional Currency for which such costs are incurred, and payable by the Borrower with each interest payment on such Loan.

4.7 Taxes.

4.7.1 Payments Free of Taxes.

Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Documents shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Taxes except as required by applicable Law. If any applicable Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Official Body in accordance with applicable Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 4.7 [Taxes]) the applicable Lender or the Agent receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

4.7.2 Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower.

The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Official Body in accordance with applicable Law, or at the option of the Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

4.7.3 Indemnification by the Borrower.

The Borrower shall indemnify the Agent and each Lender, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 4.7 [Taxes]) payable or paid by the Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Lender or the Agent, and any penalties,

interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Official Body. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with copy to the Agent), or by the Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

4.7.4 Indemnification by the Lenders.

Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Agent, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of any of the Loan Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.11.4 [Participations] relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register, and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Official Body. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Agent under this Section 4.7.4 [Indemnification by the Lenders].

4.7.5 Evidence of Payments.

As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower to an Official Body, the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Official Body evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Agent.

4.7.6 Status of Lenders.

(i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. Notwithstanding the submission of any such documentation claiming a reduced rate of or exemption from U.S. withholding tax, the Agent shall be entitled to withhold United States federal income taxes at the full 30% withholding rate if in its reasonable judgment it is required to do so under the due diligence requirements imposed upon a withholding agent under §1.1441-7(b) of the United States Income Tax Regulations. Further, the Agent is indemnified under §1.1461-1(e) of the United States Income Tax Regulations against any claims and demands of any Lender or assignee or participant of a Lender for the amount of any tax it deducts and withholds in accordance with regulations under §1441 of the Internal

Revenue Code. In addition, any Lender, if requested by the Borrower or the Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is resident for tax purposes in the United States of America:

(a) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender hereunder (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Agent), properly executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(b) any Foreign Lender, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrower or the Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

(4) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, properly executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit 4.7.6(B) or Exhibit 4.7.6(C), IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest

exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit 4.7.6(D) on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(c) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Law to permit the Borrower or the Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(d) if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(c)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (d), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

4.7.7 Refund.

If any party determines, in its reasonable discretion, that it has received a refund or credit in respect of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 4.7 [Taxes], (including by payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 4.7 [Taxes]), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund or credit (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 4.7 [Taxes] with respect to the Taxes (including without limitation Other Taxes) giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of the indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Official Body with respect to such refund or credit). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 4.7.7 (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Official Body) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund or credit to such Official Body. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.7.7, in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 4.7.7, the payment of which would

place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund or credit had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

4.7.8 Survival.

4.8 Indemnity.

In addition to the compensation or payments required by Section 4.6 [Additional Compensation in Certain Circumstances] or Section 4.7 [Taxes], the Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against all liabilities, losses or expenses (including loss of margin, any loss or expense incurred in liquidating or employing deposits from third parties and any loss or expense incurred in connection with funds acquired by a Lender to fund or maintain Loans subject to an Euro-Rate Option) which such Lender sustains or incurs as a consequence of any

(i) payment, prepayment, conversion or renewal of any Loan to which an Euro-Rate Option applies on a day other than the last day of the corresponding Interest Period (whether or not such payment or prepayment is mandatory, voluntary or automatic and whether or not such payment or prepayment is then due),

(ii) attempt by the Borrower to revoke (expressly, by later inconsistent notices or otherwise) in whole or part any Loan Requests under Section 2.5 [Revolving Credit Loan Requests; Swing Loan Requests] or Section 3.2 [Interest Periods] or notice relating to prepayments under Section 4.5 [Voluntary Prepayments, Mandatory Prepayments],

If any Lender sustains or incurs any such loss or expense, it shall from time to time notify the Borrower of the amount determined in good faith by such Lender (which determination may include such assumptions, allocations of costs and expenses and averaging or attribution methods as such Lender shall deem reasonable) to be necessary to indemnify such Lender for such loss or expense. Such notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for such determination. Such amount shall be due and payable by the Borrower to such Lender ten (10) Business Days after such notice is given.

4.9 Interbank Market Presumption.

For all purposes of this Agreement and each Note with respect to any aspects of the Euro-Rate, or any Loan under the Euro-Rate Option or any Optional Currency, each Lender and the Agent shall be presumed to have obtained rates, funding, currencies, deposits, and the like in the applicable interbank market regardless whether it did so or not; and, each Lender’s and Agent’s determination of amounts payable under, and actions required or authorized by, Section 3.4 [Euro-Rate Unascertainable; Illegality, Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available] and Section 4.8 [Indemnity] shall be calculated, at each Lender’s and Agent’s option, as though each Lender and Agent funded each Borrowing Tranche of Loans under the Euro-Rate Option through the purchase of deposits of the types and maturities corresponding to the deposits used as a reference in accordance with the terms hereof in determining the Euro-Rate applicable to such Loans, whether in fact that is the case.

4.10 Settlement Date Procedures.

In order to minimize the transfer of funds between the Lenders and the Agent, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow Swing Loans and PNC Bank may make Swing Loans as provided in Section 2.2.1 [Revolving Credit Loans] hereof. On any Business Day, the Agent may notify each Lender of its Ratable Share of the total of the Revolving Credit Loans and the Swing Loans (each a “Required Share”). Prior to 2:30 p.m. (Pittsburgh time) on the date of such notice, each Lender shall pay to the Agent the amount equal to the difference between its Required Share and its Revolving Credit Loans, and the Agent shall pay to each Lender its Ratable Share of all payments made by the Borrower to the Agent with respect to the Revolving Credit Loans. The Agent shall also effect settlement in accordance with the foregoing sentence on the proposed Borrowing Dates for Revolving Credit Loans, on any date where payments of principal of any Loan is required to be paid by any Loan Party hereunder, and may at its option (and in consultation with the Borrower) effect settlement on any other Business Day. These settlement procedures are established solely as a matter of administrative convenience, and nothing contained in this Section 4.10 shall relieve the Lenders of their obligations to fund Revolving Credit Loans on dates other than a Settlement Date. The Agent may at any time at its option for any reason whatsoever require each Lender to pay immediately to the Agent such Lender’s Ratable Share of the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans and each Lender may at any time require the Agent to pay immediately to such Bank its Ratable Share of all payments made by the Borrower to the Agent with respect to the Revolving Credit Loans.

4.11 Judgment Currency.

4.11.1 Currency Conversion Procedures for Judgments.

If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or under a Note in any currency (the “Original Currency”) into another currency (the “Other Currency”), the parties hereby agree, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures each Lender could purchase the Original Currency with the Other Currency after any

premium and costs of exchange on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given.

4.11.2 Indemnity in Certain Events.

The obligation of the Borrower in respect of any sum due from the Borrower to any Lender hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in an Other Currency, whether pursuant to a judgment or otherwise, be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day following receipt by any Lender of any sum adjudged to be so due in such Other Currency, such Lender may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Original Currency with such Other Currency. If the amount of the Original Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Lender in the Original Currency, the Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment or payment, to indemnify such Lender against such loss.

Neither the Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys or Affiliates shall (i) be liable to any Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder, or in connection herewith including pursuant to any Loan Document, unless caused by its or their own bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined in a final, unappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction; (ii) be responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for the effectiveness, enforceability, genuineness, validity or the due execution of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents or for any recital, representation, warranty, document, certificate, report or statement herein or made or furnished under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, or (iii) be under any obligation to any of the Lenders to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions hereof or thereof on the part of the Loan Parties, or the financial condition of the Loan Parties, or the existence or possible existence of any Event of Default or Potential Default. No claim may be made by any of the Loan Parties, any Lender, the Agent or any of their respective Subsidiaries against the Agent, any Lender or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys or Affiliates, or any of them, for any special, indirect or consequential damages or, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, for any punitive damages in respect of any claim or cause of action (whether based on contract, tort, statutory liability, or any other ground) based on, arising out of or related to any Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith, including the negotiation, documentation, administration or collection of the Loans, and each of the Loan Parties, (for itself and on behalf of each of its Subsidiaries), the Agent and each Lender hereby waive, releases and agree never to xxx upon any claim for any such damages, whether such claim now exists or hereafter arises and whether or not it is now known or suspected to exist in its favor. Each Lender agrees that, except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Agent hereunder or given to

104

the Agent for the account of or with copies for the Lenders, the Agent and each of its directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys or Affiliates shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of the Loan Parties which may come into the possession of the Agent or any of its directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys or Affiliates.

9.10 Reimbursement and Indemnification of Agent by Lenders.

Each Lender agrees to reimburse and indemnify the Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the Obligation of the Borrower to do so) in proportion to its Ratable Share from and against all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements (including the allocated reasonable costs of staff counsel), and costs of appraisers and environmental consultants, of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Agent, in its capacity as such, in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by the Agent hereunder or thereunder, provided that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements (i) if the same results from the Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined in a final, unappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or (ii) if such Lender was not given notice of the subject claim and the opportunity to participate in the defense thereof, at its expense (except that such Lender shall remain liable to the extent such failure to give notice does not result in a loss to the Lender), or (iii) if the same results from a compromise and settlement agreement entered into without the consent of such Lender, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. In addition, each Lender agrees promptly upon demand to reimburse the Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the Obligation of the Borrower to do so) in proportion to its Ratable Share for all amounts due and payable by the Borrower to the Agent in connection with the Agent’s periodic audit of the Loan Parties’ books, records and business properties.

9.11 Agent’s Fee.

The Borrower shall pay to the Agent a nonrefundable fee (the “Agent’s Fee”) under the terms of one or more letters (collectively the “Agent’s Letter”) between the Borrower and the Agent, as amended from time to time.

9.12 Availability of Funds.

The Agent may assume that each Lender has made or will make the proceeds of a Revolving Credit Loan available to the Agent in immediately available funds unless the Agent shall have been notified by such Lender on or before the later of (i) the close of Business on the Business Day preceding the Borrowing Date with respect to such Loan; or (ii) two (2) hours before the time on which the Agent actually funds the proceeds of such Loan to the Borrower (whether using its own funds pursuant to this Section 9.12 or using proceeds deposited with the Agent by the Lenders and whether such funding occurs before or after the time on which Lenders

105

are required to deposit the proceeds of such Loan with the Agent). The Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption (but shall not be required to), make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount in the applicable currency. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Agent by such Lender in the applicable currency, the Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender (or, if such Lender fails to pay such amount forthwith upon such demand from the Borrower) together with interest thereon, in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date such amount was made available to the Borrower and ending on the date the Agent recovers such amount, at (a) in the case of a payment to be made by a Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation and (b) in the case of payment to be made by the Borrower, the applicable interest rate under the Base Rate Option or the Euro-Rate Option, as applicable. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that has failed to make such payment to the Agent.

9.13 Calculations.

In the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, the Agent shall not be liable for any error in computing the amount payable to any Lender whether in respect of the Loans, fees or any other amounts due to the Lenders under this Agreement. In the event an error in computing any amount payable to any Lender is made, the Agent, the Borrower and each affected Lender shall, forthwith upon discovery of such error, make such adjustments as shall be required to correct such error, and any compensation therefore will be calculated at the Federal Funds Effective Rate.

9.14 No Reliance on Agent’s Customer Identification Program.

Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that neither such Lender, nor any of its Affiliates, participants or assignees, may rely on the Agent to carry out such Lender’s, Affiliate’s, participant’s or assignee’s customer identification program, or other obligations required or imposed under or pursuant to the USA Patriot Act or the regulations thereunder, including the regulations contained in 31 CFR 103.121 (as hereafter amended or replaced, the “CIP Regulations”), or any other Anti-Terrorism Law, including any programs involving any of the following items relating to or in connection with any of the Loan Parties, their Affiliates or their agents, the Loan Documents or the transactions hereunder or contemplated hereby: (i) any identity verification procedures, (ii) any recordkeeping, (iii) comparisons with government lists, (iv) customer notices or (v) other procedures required under the CIP Regulations or such other Laws.

9.15 Certain Releases of Pledged Collateral.

It is expressly agreed by each Lender, that upon the written request of the Borrower (accompanied by such certificates and other documentation as the Agent may reasonably request) the Agent on behalf of the Lenders and without any consent or action by any Lender, may, so long as no Event of Default exists after giving effect thereto, release (i) any portion of the Pledged Collateral and (ii) any Guarantor from its obligations under the

106

Guaranty Agreement, in either case in connection with any sale, transfer, lease, disposition, merger or other transaction permitted by this Agreement; provided, however, that the provisions set forth in this Section 9.15 apply only to releases of portions of the Pledged Collateral or Guarantors where this Agreement does not otherwise expressly provide for the consent or approval of all Lenders. (By way of example, the provisions of this Section 9.15 would not apply to any release of all or substantially all of the Pledged Collateral, which release, in accordance with Section 10.1.3 [Release of Collateral or Guarantor], would require the consent of all of the Lenders).

9.16 Additional Agents.

No Lender or Affiliate thereof identified as a “Joint Lead Arranger”, “Syndication Agent”, “Documentation Agent”, or “Managing Agent” on the facing page hereof, on the signature page hereof or otherwise herein shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty of any kind hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents (except those applicable to it as a “Lender”) or any fiduciary relationship with any other Lender.

10. MISCELLANEOUS

10.1 Modifications, Amendments or Waivers.

With the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Agent, acting on behalf of all the Lenders, and the Borrower, on behalf of the Loan Parties, may from time to time enter into written agreements amending or changing any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the rights of the Lenders or the Loan Parties hereunder or thereunder, or may grant written waivers or consents to a departure from the due performance of the Obligations of the Loan Parties hereunder or thereunder. Any such agreement, waiver or consent made with such written consent shall be effective to bind all the Lenders and the Loan Parties; provided, that, no such agreement, waiver or consent may be made which will:

10.1.1 Increase of Commitment.

Increase the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment of any Lender hereunder without the written consent of such Lender; provided, however that the written consent of any Lenders shall not be required for an increase in the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments requested by the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.14 [Right to Increase Revolving Credit Commitments];

10.1.2 Extension of Payment; Reduction of Principal Interest or Fees; Modification of Terms of Payment.

Whether or not any Loans are outstanding, extend the Expiration Date or the time for payment of principal or interest of any Loan, the Commitment Fee or any other fee payable to any Lender, or reduce the principal amount of or the rate of interest borne by any Loan or reduce the Commitment Fee or any other fee payable to any Lender, or any other amount payable to any Lender without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby;

107

10.1.3 Release of Collateral or Guarantor.

Without the written consent of all Lenders (other than Defaulting Lenders), release all or substantially all of the Pledged Collateral, or release any Guarantor from its Obligations under the Guaranty Agreement, except in connection with a sale or dissolution of such Guarantor otherwise permitted hereunder; or

10.1.4 Miscellaneous.

Without the written consent of all Lenders (other than Defaulting Lenders), amend Section 4.2 [Pro Rata Treatment of Lenders], or Section 9.9 [Exculpatory Provisions, Limitation of Liability] or this Section 10.1, alter any provision regarding the pro rata treatment of the Lenders, change the definition of Required Lenders, or change any requirement providing for the Lenders or the Required Lenders to authorize the taking of any action hereunder; provided, further, that no agreement, waiver or consent which would modify the interests, rights or obligations of the Agent in its capacity as Agent or as the issuer of Letters of Credit shall be effective without the written consent of the Agent, and provided, further that, if in connection with any proposed waiver, amendment or modification referred to in Section 10.1.1 through Section 10.1.4 above, the consent of the Required Lenders is obtained but the consent of one or more of such other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained (each a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then the Borrower shall have the right to replace any such Non-Consenting Lender with one or more replacement Lenders pursuant to Section 4.5.2 [Replacement of a Lender].

10.2 No Implied Waivers; Cumulative Remedies; Writing Required.

No course of dealing and no delay or failure of the Agent or any Lender in exercising any right, power, remedy or privilege under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall affect any other or future exercise thereof or operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right, power, remedy or privilege preclude any further exercise thereof or of any other right, power, remedy or privilege. The rights and remedies of the Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement and any other Loan Documents are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which they would otherwise have. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character on the part of the Agent or any Lender of any breach or default under this Agreement or any such waiver of any provision or condition of this Agreement must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing.

10.3 Reimbursement and Indemnification of Lenders by the Borrower; Taxes.

The Borrower agrees unconditionally upon demand to pay or reimburse to each Lender (other than the Agent, as to which the Borrower’s Obligations are set forth in Section 9.10 [Reimbursement and Indemnification of Agent by Lenders]) and to save such Lender harmless against (i) liability for the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs, expenses and disbursements (including fees and expenses of counsel (including allocated costs of staff counsel) for each Lender except with respect to (a) and (b) below), incurred by such Lender (a) in

108

connection with the administration and interpretation of this Agreement, and other instruments and documents to be delivered hereunder, (b) relating to any amendments, waivers or consents pursuant to the provisions hereof, (c) in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or collection of amounts due hereunder or thereunder or the proof and allowability of any claim arising under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, whether in bankruptcy or receivership proceedings or otherwise, (d) in any workout or restructuring or in connection with the protection, preservation, exercise or enforcement of any of the terms hereof or of any rights hereunder or under any other Loan Document or in connection with any foreclosure, collection or bankruptcy proceedings, and (e) in connection with any Environmental Complaint threatened or asserted against the Lender in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, the protection, preservation, exercise or enforcement of any of the terms hereof or of any rights hereunder or under any other Loan Document or in connection with any foreclosure, collection or bankruptcy proceedings or in any workout or restructuring), or (ii) all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Lender, in its capacity as such, in any way relating to or arising out of (y) this Agreement or any other Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by such Lender hereunder or thereunder and (z) any Environmental Complaint in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by such Lender hereunder or thereunder, provided that the Borrower shall not be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements (A) if the same results from such Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined in a final, unappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, or (B) if the Borrower was not given notice of the subject claim and the opportunity to participate in the defense thereof, at its expense (except that the Borrower shall remain liable to the extent such failure to give notice does not result in a loss to the Borrower), or (C) if the same results from a compromise or settlement agreement entered into without the consent of the Borrower, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Lenders will attempt to minimize the fees and expenses of legal counsel for the Lenders which are subject to reimbursement by the Borrower hereunder by considering the usage of one law firm to represent the Lenders and the Agent if appropriate under the circumstances. The Borrower agrees unconditionally to pay all stamp, document, transfer, recording or filing taxes or fees and similar impositions now or hereafter determined by the Agent or any Lender to be payable in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and the Borrower agrees unconditionally to save the Agent and the Lenders harmless from and against any and all present or future claims, liabilities or losses with respect to or resulting from any omission to pay or delay in paying any such taxes, fees or impositions.

10.4 Holidays.

Whenever payment of a Loan to be made or taken hereunder shall be due on a day which is not a Business Day such payment shall be due on the next Business Day (except as provided in Section 3.2 [Interest Periods] with respect to Interest Periods under the Euro-Rate Option) and such extension of time shall be included in computing interest and fees, except that the Loans shall be due on the Business Day preceding the Expiration Date if the Expiration Date is not a Business Day. Whenever any payment or action to be made or taken hereunder (other

109

than payment of the Loans) shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment or action shall be made or taken on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall not be included in computing interest or fees, if any, in connection with such payment or action.

10.5 Funding by Branch, Subsidiary or Affiliate.

10.5.1 Notional Funding.

Each Lender shall have the right from time to time, without notice to the Borrower, to deem any branch, Subsidiary or Affiliate (which for the purposes of this Section 10.5 shall mean any corporation or association which is directly or indirectly controlled by or is under direct or indirect common control with any corporation or association which directly or indirectly controls such Lender) of such Lender to have made, maintained or funded any Loan to which the Euro-Rate Option applies at any time, provided that immediately following (on the assumption that a payment were then due from the Borrower to such other office), and as a result of such change, the Borrower would not be under any greater financial obligation pursuant to Section 4.6 [Additional Compensation in Certain Circumstances] than it would have been in the absence of such change. Notional funding offices may be selected by each Lender without regard to such Lender’s actual methods of making, maintaining or funding the Loans or any sources of funding actually used by or available to such Lender.

10.5.2 Actual Funding.

Each Lender shall have the right from time to time to make or maintain any Loan by arranging for a branch, Subsidiary or Affiliate of such Lender to make or maintain such Loan subject to the last sentence of this Section 10.5.2. If any Lender causes a branch, Subsidiary or Affiliate to make or maintain any part of the Loans hereunder, all terms and conditions of this Agreement shall, except where the context clearly requires otherwise, be applicable to such part of the Loans to the same extent as if such Loans were made or maintained by such Lender, but in no event shall any Lender’s use of such a branch, Subsidiary or Affiliate to make or maintain any part of the Loans hereunder cause such Lender or such branch, Subsidiary or Affiliate to incur any cost or expenses payable by the Borrower hereunder or require the Borrower to pay any other compensation to any Lender (including any expenses incurred or payable pursuant to Section 4.6 [Additional Compensation in Certain Circumstances]) which would otherwise not be incurred.

10.11.2 Assignments by Lenders.

Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i) Minimum Amounts.

(A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and

10.11.3 Register.

The Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain a record of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time.

Such register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

114

10.11.4 Participations.

Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.

Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree (other than as is already provided for herein) to any amendment, modification or waiver with respect to Section 10.1.1 [Increase of Commitment; Extension of Expiration Date], Section 10.1.2 [Extension of Payment; Reduction of Principal Interest or Fees; Modification of Terms of Payment], or Section 10.1.3 [Release of Collateral or Guarantor] that affects such Participant. Subject to Section 10.11.5 [Limitations upon Participant Rights Successors and Assigns Generally], the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.4 [Euro-Rate Unascertainable; Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available], Section 4.6 [Additional Compensation in Certain Circumstances] to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 10.11.2 [Assignments by Lenders], Section 4.7 [Taxes] and Section 10.3 [Reimbursement and Indemnification of Lenders by the Borrower; Taxes], provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 4.5.2 [Replacement of a Lender] as if it were an assignee under Section 10.11.2 [Assignments by Lenders]; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 4.6 [Additional Compensation in Certain Circumstances] or 4.7 [Taxes], with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 4.5.2 [Replacement of a Lender] with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 8.2.3 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 4.2 [Pro-Rata Treatment of Lenders] as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its

A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 4.7 [Taxes] unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 4.2 [Pro-Rata Treatment of Lenders] as though it were a Lender.

PRICING GRID

I	Less than 1.5 to 1.0	0.175%	0.25%	1.25%	1.25%
II	Greater or equal to 1.5 but less than 2.0 to 1.0	0.20%	0.50%	1.50%	1.50%

provided, however, that if for purposes of calculating the Leverage Ratio, EBITDA is zero or negative, level IV shall apply.

For purposes of determining the Applicable Margin, the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate and the Applicable Letter of Credit Fee:

(A) The Applicable Margin, the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate, and the Applicable Letter of Credit Fee shall be determined on the Closing Date based on the Leverage Ratio computed on such date pursuant to that certificate delivered pursuant to Section 6.1.11 [Compliance Certificate] hereof.

(B) The Applicable Commitment Fee Rate and the Applicable Letter of Credit Fee shall be recomputed as of the end of each fiscal quarter based on the Leverage Ratio as of such quarter end. The Applicable Margin shall be recomputed as of the end of each fiscal quarter based on the Leverage Ratio as of such quarter end. Any increase or decrease in the Applicable Margin, the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate, or the Applicable Letter of Credit Fee computed as of a quarter end shall be effective on the date on which the Compliance Certificate and corresponding financial statements evidencing such computation are due to be delivered under Section 7.3.3 [Certificate of the Borrower] (the “Reset Date”); provided, however, that if the Borrower has failed to deliver, or caused to be delivered, such Compliance Certificate and corresponding financial statements on or before the date such delivery is due as required, as the case may be, under Section 7.3.1 [Quarterly Financial Statements] or Section 7.3.2 [Annual Financial Statements] (the “Delivery Date”), then the Leverage Ratio shall be deemed, solely for the purposes of determining the Applicable Margin, the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate, and the Applicable Letter of Credit Fee, to be greater than 2.0 to 1.0 from the Delivery Date until the

SCHEDULE 1.1(A)-1

Compliance Certificate and financial statements due for the fiscal quarter subsequent to the fiscal quarter for which delivery did not timely occur by the requisite Delivery Date are timely delivered as required, as the case may be, under Section 7.3.2 [Quarterly Financial Statements] or Section 7.3.3 [Annual Financial Statements], and provided further that any such increase or decrease in the Applicable Margin with respect to the Euro-Rate Spread applicable to an Optional Currency Borrowing Tranche shall go into effect at the end of the then current Interest Period therefor.

(C) Pricing shall be set at Level I on the Closing Date and shall remain in effect until reset in accordance with paragraph (B) above.
