2. THE REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY.

2.1 Commitment to Lend, Exit Financing Fee Reserve and Roll-Up of the Pre-Petition Revolving Credit Loans.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Credit Agreement, each of the Lenders severally agrees to lend to the Borrowers and the Borrowers may borrow, repay, and reborrow on a joint and several basis from time to time from the Closing Date up to and including the Maturity Date upon notice by the Borrowers to the Agent given in accordance with §2.6, such sums as are requested by the Borrowers up to a maximum aggregate amount Outstanding (after giving effect to all amounts requested) owing to such Lender at any one time equal to such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment, minus such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of all Reserves established by Agent pursuant to the terms hereof; provided that (a) the Outstanding amount of the Revolving Credit Loans (after giving effect to all amounts requested) owing to all Lenders, plus the Maximum Drawing Amount, plus all Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations plus all Reserves established by Agent pursuant to the terms hereof at such time shall not at any time exceed the Total Commitment, and (b) the Outstanding amount of Revolving Credit Loans (after giving effect to all amounts requested) owing to all Lenders, plus all Reserves established by Agent pursuant to the terms hereof shall not at any time exceed the Revolving Credit Commitments of all Lenders. The Revolving Credit Loans shall be made pro rata in accordance with each Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage. Each request for a Revolving Credit Loan hereunder shall constitute a representation and warranty by the Borrowers that the conditions set forth in §12 and §13, in the case of the initial Revolving Credit Loans to be made on the Closing Date, and §13, in the case of all other Revolving Credit Loans, have been satisfied on the date of such request.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, $1,000,000 of the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be reserved (the “Exit Financing Fee Reserve”) exclusively for payment by the Debtors of market fees and costs associated with the arrangement, syndication, negotiation and documentation of exit financing or acquisition financing, as applicable (collectively, the “Exit Costs”) and the Exit Financing Fee Reserve shall not become available unless and until the Agent receives the Satisfactory Exit Consent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or otherwise, the Exit Financing Fee Reserve shall not become available if any holder (or any representative or agent thereof) of 2009 Senior Secured Debt opposes, contests or supports any other Person opposing or contesting the entry of any DIP Order or the terms or provisions of any Loan Document or any DIP Order.

(c) Effective upon the occurrence of the Roll-Up Effective Time, without any further action by any party to this Credit Agreement, the Bankruptcy Court or any other Person, the Pre-Petition Revolving Credit Loans owing to each Lender at the Roll-Up Effective Time shall be rolled-up into and constitute Revolving Credit Loans hereunder and the outstanding principal balance of the Pre-Petition Revolving Credit Loans owing to such Lender shall constitute a portion of the Outstanding amount of the Revolving Credit Loans owing to such Lender hereunder. All interest and fees with respect to the Pre-Petition Revolving Credit Loans that have accrued but remain unpaid at the Roll-Up Effective Time shall constitute Obligations hereunder and shall be due and payable on the first date after the Roll-Up Effective Time on which interest and fees, as applicable, with respect to the Revolving Credit Loans are due and payable in accordance with the terms set forth herein.

2.2 Commitment Fee. The Borrowers jointly and severally agree to pay to the Agent for the accounts of the Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages a commitment fee in an amount equal to one-half of one percent (0.50%) per annum on the average daily amount during each calendar quarter or portion thereof from the Closing Date to the Maturity Date by which the Total Commitment exceeds the sum of (a) the Outstanding amount of Revolving Credit Loans plus (b) the Maximum Drawing Amount plus (c) all Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations during such calendar quarter. The commitment fee shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of each calendar quarter for the calendar quarter then ending, commencing on the first such date after the Closing Date, with a final payment on the Maturity Date or any earlier date on which the Revolving Credit Commitments shall terminate.

2.3 Reduction of Total Revolving Credit Commitment. The Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time upon one (1) Business Days prior written notice (confirmed telephonically on the date of delivery of such written notice) or telephonic notice (confirmed in writing on the date of such telephonic notice) to the Agent to reduce the Total Revolving Credit Commitment in connection with a payment in full of the Obligations. Promptly after receiving any notice of the Borrowers delivered pursuant to this §2.3, the Agent will notify the Lenders of the substance thereof.

2.4 The Revolving Credit Notes. If so requested by any Lender, the Revolving Credit Loans shall be evidenced by joint and several promissory notes of the Borrowers in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto (each a “Revolving Credit Note”), dated as of the Closing Date and completed with appropriate insertions. One Revolving Credit Note shall be payable to each Lender in a principal amount equal to such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment or, if less, the Outstanding amount of all Revolving Credit Loans made by such Lender, plus interest accrued thereon, as set forth below. Each of the Borrowers irrevocably authorizes each Lender to make or cause to be made, at or about the time of the Drawdown Date of any Revolving Credit Loan or at the time of receipt of any payment of principal on such Lender’s Revolving Credit Note, an appropriate notation on such Lender’s Revolving Credit Note Record reflecting the making of such Revolving Credit Loan or (as the case may be) the receipt of such payment. The Outstanding amount of the Revolving Credit Loans set forth on such Lender’s Revolving Credit Note Record shall be prima facie evidence of the principal amount thereof owing and unpaid to such Lender, but the failure to record, or any error in so recording, any such amount on such Lender’s Revolving Credit Note Record shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrowers hereunder or under any Revolving Credit Note to make payments of principal of or interest on any Revolving Credit Note when due.

2.5 Interest on Revolving Credit Loans. Except as otherwise provided in §6.10,

(a) Each Revolving Credit Loan shall bear interest for the period commencing with the Drawdown Date thereof (or with respect to the borrowings which are deemed to occur at the Roll-Up Effective Time, commencing with the Roll-Up Effective Time) and ending on the day such Revolving Credit Loan is paid in full at an annual rate equal to the sum of (i) the Base Rate as in effect from time to time while such Loan is Outstanding plus (ii) the Applicable Margin.

(b) The Borrowers jointly and severally promise to pay interest on each Revolving Credit Loan in arrears on each Interest Payment Date with respect thereto.

2.6 Requests for Revolving Credit Loans. The Borrowers shall give to the Agent telephonic and written notice (such written notice to be in the form of Exhibit B hereto) of each Revolving Credit Loan requested hereunder (a “Revolving Credit Loan Request”) (a) prior to noon (Chicago time) on the proposed Drawdown Date of any such Loan equal to or less than $5,000,000 and (b) prior to noon (Chicago time) on the date which is one (1) Business Day prior to the proposed Drawdown Date of any such Loan in excess of $5,000,000; provided that no such notice shall be required for the borrowings which are deemed to occur at the Roll-Up Effective Time. Each such written notice shall specify the principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loan requested and the proposed Drawdown Date of such Revolving Credit Loan. Upon receipt of any such notices, the Agent shall promptly notify each of the Lenders thereof. Each Revolving Credit Loan Request shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrowers and shall obligate the Borrowers to accept the Revolving Credit Loan requested from the Lenders on the proposed Drawdown Date. Each Revolving Credit Loan Request shall be in a minimum aggregate amount of $100,000 or an integral multiple of $50,000 in excess thereof. Unless the Agent is otherwise directed in writing by the Borrowers, the proceeds of each requested borrowing after the Closing Date will be made available to the Borrowers by the Agent by wire transfer of such amount to the Borrowers pursuant to the wire transfer instructions specified on the signature page hereto in relation to the Borrowers.

2.7 [Intentionally Omitted].

2.8 Funds for Revolving Credit Loans.

2.8.1 Funding Procedures. Not later than 1:00 p.m. (Chicago time) on the proposed Drawdown Date of any Revolving Credit Loans, each of the Lenders will make available to the Agent, at the Agent’s Office, in immediately available funds, the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the amount of the requested Revolving Credit Loans. Upon receipt from each Lender of such amount, and upon receipt of the documents required by §§12 and 13 and the satisfaction of the other conditions set forth therein, to the extent applicable, the Agent will make available to the Borrowers the aggregate amount of such Revolving Credit Loans made available to the Agent by the Lenders. The failure or refusal of any Lender to make available to the Agent at the aforesaid time and place on any Drawdown Date the amount of its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the requested Revolving Credit Loans shall not relieve any other Lender from its several obligation hereunder to make available to the Agent the amount of such other Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of any requested Revolving Credit Loans.

2.8.2 Advances by Agent. The Agent may, unless notified to the contrary by any Lender prior to a Drawdown Date, assume that such Lender has made available to the Agent on such Drawdown Date the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the Revolving Credit Loans to be made on such Drawdown Date, and the Agent may (but it shall not be required to), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrowers a corresponding amount. If any Lender makes available to the Agent such amount on a date after such Drawdown Date, such Lender shall pay to the Agent on demand an amount equal to the product of (a) the average computed for the period referred to in clause (c) below, of the weighted average interest rate paid by the Agent for federal funds acquired by the Agent during each day included in such period, times (b) the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of such Revolving Credit Loans, times (c) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse from and including such Drawdown Date to the date on which the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of such Revolving Credit Loans shall become immediately available to the Agent, and the denominator of which is 360. A statement of the Agent submitted to such Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this paragraph shall be prima facie evidence of the amount due and owing to the Agent by such Lender. If the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of such Revolving Credit Loans is not made available to the Agent by such Lender within three (3) Business Days following such Drawdown Date, the Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount from the Borrowers on demand, with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to the Revolving Credit Loans made on such Drawdown Date.

3. REPAYMENT OF THE REVOLVING CREDIT LOANS.

3.1 Maturity. The Borrowers jointly and severally promise to pay on the Maturity Date, or at such earlier time as the Revolving Credit Loans become due and payable as set forth herein, and there shall become absolutely due and payable on the Maturity Date, or at such earlier time as the Revolving Credit Loans become due and payable as set forth herein, all of the Revolving Credit Loans Outstanding on such date, together with any and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

3.2 Mandatory Repayments of Revolving Credit Loans. If at any time (i) the sum of the Outstanding amount of the Revolving Credit Loans, plus the Maximum Drawing Amount, plus all Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations, plus all Reserves established by Agent in accordance with the terms hereof exceeds the Total Commitment or (ii) the sum of the Outstanding amount of the Revolving Credit Loans, plus all Reserves established by Agent in accordance with the terms hereof exceeds the Revolving Credit Commitments of all Lenders, then the Borrowers shall immediately pay the amount of such excess to the Agent for the respective accounts of the Lenders for application to the Revolving Credit Loans. Each prepayment of Revolving Credit Loans shall be allocated among the Lenders, in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective unpaid principal amount of each Lender’s Revolving Credit Note, with adjustments to the extent practicable to equalize any prior payments or repayments not exactly in proportion.

3.3 Optional Repayments of Revolving Credit Loans. The Borrowers shall have the right, at their election, to repay the Outstanding amount of the Revolving Credit Loans, as a whole or in part, at any time without penalty or premium. The Borrowers shall give the Agent, no later than noon (Chicago time), on the date of any proposed prepayment prior written notice (confirmed telephonically on the date of delivery of such written notice, but in any case such confirmation to occur no later than noon (Chicago time) time, on the date of any such proposed prepayment) or telephonic notice (confirmed in writing on the date of such telephonic notice) of any proposed prepayment pursuant to this §3.3, in each case specifying the proposed date of prepayment of Revolving Credit Loans and the principal amount to be prepaid. Each such partial prepayment of the Loans shall be in a minimum amount of $100,000 or an integral multiple of $50,000 in excess thereof and shall be accompanied by the payment of accrued interest on the principal prepaid to the date of prepayment. Each partial prepayment shall be allocated among the Lenders, in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective unpaid principal amount of each Lender’s Note, with adjustments to the extent practicable to equalize any prior repayments not exactly in proportion.

5. LETTERS OF CREDIT.

5.1 Letter of Credit Commitment and Roll-Up of the Pre-Petition Letters of Credit.

5.1.1 Commitment to Issue Letters of Credit and the Roll-Up of Pre-Petition Letters of Credit.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and the execution and delivery by the Borrowers of a letter of credit application on the applicable L/C Issuer’s customary form (a “Letter of Credit Application”), each L/C Issuer on behalf of the Lenders and in reliance upon the agreement of the Lenders set forth in §5.1.4 and upon the representations and warranties of the Borrowers contained herein, agrees, in its individual capacity, to issue, extend and renew for the account of the Borrowers, in accordance with such L/C Issuer’s usual and customary business practices, one or more standby or documentary letters of credit (denominated in Dollars) (individually, a “Letter of Credit”), in such form as may be requested from time to time by the Borrowers and agreed to by such L/C Issuer; provided, however, that, after giving effect to such request, (i) the sum of the aggregate Maximum Drawing Amount and all Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations shall not exceed the Letter of Credit Commitments of all Lenders and (ii) the sum of the aggregate Maximum Drawing Amount and all Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations plus the Outstanding amount of the Revolving Credit Loans owing to all Lenders plus all Reserves established by the Agent in accordance with the terms hereof shall not, at any time, exceed the Total Commitment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no L/C Issuer shall have any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit:

(A) to support or secure any Indebtedness of any of the Borrowers or their Subsidiaries to the extent that such Indebtedness was incurred prior to the proposed issuance date of such Letter of Credit, unless in any such case the Borrowers demonstrate to the satisfaction of such L/C Issuer and the Agent that (x) such prior incurred Indebtedness was then fully secured by a prior perfected and unavoidable security interest in collateral provided by the Borrowers or such Subsidiary to the proposed beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or (y) such prior incurred Indebtedness were then secured or supported by a letter of credit issued for the account of such Borrower or such Subsidiary and the reimbursement obligation with respect to such letter of credit was fully secured by a prior perfected and unavoidable security interest in collateral provided to the issuer of such letter of credit by such Borrower or such Subsidiary; and

(B) upon the occurrence of any of the following: (i) any fee due in connection with, and on or prior to, such issuance has not been paid, (ii) such Letter of Credit is requested to be issued in a form that is not acceptable to such L/C Issuer or (iii) such L/C Issuer shall not have received, each in form and substance reasonably acceptable to it and duly executed by the Borrowers the documents that such L/C Issuer generally uses in the ordinary course of its business for the issuance of letters of credit of the type of such Letter of Credit (collectively, the “L/C Reimbursement Agreement”).

For each issuance, extension of the expiration date of, or renewal of a Letter of Credit, the applicable L/C Issuer may, but shall not be required to, determine that, or take notice whether, the conditions precedent set forth in §13 have been satisfied or waived in connection with the issuance, extension or renewal of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that no Letter of Credit shall be issued, extended or renewed during the period starting on the first Business Day after the receipt by such L/C Issuer of notice from the Agent or the Majority Lenders that any applicable condition precedent contained in §13 is not satisfied and ending on the date all such conditions are satisfied or duly waived.

(b) Effective upon the occurrence of the Roll-Up Effective Time, without any further action by any party to this Credit Agreement, the Bankruptcy Court or any other Person, the Pre-Petition Letters of Credit issued by Prior L/C Issuer that remain outstanding at the Roll-Up Effective Time shall be rolled-up into and constitute Letters of Credit issued hereunder and the maximum aggregate amount that the beneficiaries may at any time draw under outstanding Pre-Petition Letters of Credit shall constitute a portion of the Maximum Drawing Amount hereunder. All fees with respect to the Pre-Petition Letters of Credit that have accrued but remain unpaid at the Roll-Up Effective Time shall constitute Obligations hereunder and shall be due and payable on the first date after the Roll-Up Effective Time on which fees with respect to Letters of Credit are due and payable in accordance with the terms set forth herein.

(c) As provided in the DIP Orders, effective upon a draw on a Pre-Petition Letter of Credit on or after the Petition Date but prior to the Roll-Up Effective Time, any Reimbursement Obligation (as defined in the Pre-Petition Credit Agreement) with respect thereto shall be rolled up and constitute a Reimbursement Obligation hereunder without the need of any further action.

5.1.2 Letter of Credit Applications. Each Letter of Credit Application shall be completed to the satisfaction of the applicable L/C Issuer. In the event that any provision of any Letter of Credit Application shall be inconsistent with any provision of this Credit Agreement, then the provisions of this Credit Agreement shall, to the extent of any such inconsistency, govern.

5.1.3 Terms of Letters of Credit. Each Letter of Credit issued, extended or renewed hereunder shall, among other things, (a) provide for the payment of sight drafts for honor thereunder when presented in accordance with the terms thereof and when accompanied by the documents described therein, and (b) have an expiry date no later than (i) the first anniversary of the issue date thereof (although Letters of Credit may provide for automatic renewals upon the expiration thereof for additional periods not exceeding one year as long as (x) the Borrowers and such L/C Issuer each have the option to prevent such renewal before the expiration of such term or any such period and (y) neither the L/C Issuer nor the Borrowers shall permit any such renewal to extend such expiration date beyond the date set forth in the immediately succeeding clause (ii)) hereof and (ii) the date which is fourteen (14) days (or, if the Letter of Credit is confirmed by a confirmer or otherwise provides for one or more nominated persons, thirty (30) days) prior to the Maturity Date (it being understood and agreed that, notwithstanding the foregoing clause (ii) to the contrary, the outstanding Pre-Petition Letters of Credit may be rolled-up as provided herein). Each Letter of Credit so issued, extended or renewed shall be subject to the Uniform Customs.

5.1.4 Reimbursement Obligations of Lenders. Each Lender severally agrees that it shall be absolutely liable, without regard to the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default or any other condition precedent whatsoever, to the extent of such Lender’s Letter of Credit Commitment Percentage, to reimburse each L/C Issuer on demand for the amount of each draft paid by such L/C Issuer under each Letter of Credit to the extent that such amount is not reimbursed by the Borrowers pursuant to §5.2 (such agreement for a Lender being called herein the “Letter of Credit Participation” of such Lender).

5.1.5 Participations of Lenders. Each such payment made by a Lender shall be treated as the purchase by such Lender of a participating interest in the Borrowers’ Reimbursement Obligation under §5.2 in an amount equal to such payment. Each Lender shall share in accordance with its participating interest in any interest which accrues pursuant to §5.2.

5.1.6 Cash Collateral Demand. At any time following the occurrence and during the continuance a Default or an Event of Default, the Agent or any L/C Issuer may require that the Borrowers deliver to the Agent on demand, and the Borrowers hereby agree to deliver to the Agent at any such time, cash collateral to secure the Maximum Drawing Amount or Unpaid Reimbursement Obligation with respect to any Letter of Credit in an amount not less than 105% of the amount of the Maximum Drawing Amount and Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations under any Letter of Credit outstanding at such time.

5.1.7 Reporting Obligations of L/C Issuers. Each L/C Issuer agrees to provide the Agent (which, after receipt, the Agent shall provide to each Lender), in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent, each of the following on the following dates: (A) (i) on or prior to any issuance, extension and renewal, as the case may be, of any Letter of Credit by such L/C Issuer, (ii) immediately after any drawing under any such Letter of Credit or (iii) immediately after any payment (or failure to pay when due) by the Borrowers of any related reimbursement obligation as provided in §5.2), notice thereof, which shall contain a reasonably detailed description of such issuance, extension and renewal, as the case may be, drawing or payment; (B) upon the request of the Agent (or any Lender through the Agent), copies of any Letter of Credit issued, extended or renewed by such L/C Issuer and any related L/C Reimbursement Agreement and such other documents and information as may reasonably be requested by the Agent; and (C) on the first Business Day of each calendar week, a schedule of the Letters of Credit issued, extended and renewed, as the case may be, by such L/C Issuer, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent, setting forth the Maximum Drawing Amount for such Letters of Credit outstanding on the last Business Day of the previous calendar week.

5.2 Reimbursement Obligation of the Borrowers. In order to induce each L/C Issuer to issue, extend and renew each Letter of Credit and the Lenders to participate therein, the Borrowers hereby jointly and severally agree to reimburse or pay to the Agent, for the account of such L/C Issuer or (as the case may be) the Lenders, with respect to each Letter of Credit issued, extended or renewed by such L/C Issuer hereunder,

(a) on the day following each date that any draft presented under such Letter of Credit is honored by such L/C Issuer, or such L/C Issuer otherwise makes a payment with respect thereto, the amount of any taxes, fees, charges or other costs and expenses whatsoever incurred by such L/C Issuer or any Lender in connection with any payment made by such L/C Issuer or any Lender under, or with respect to, such Letter of Credit, and

(b) upon the termination of the Letter of Credit Commitments, or the acceleration of the Reimbursement Obligations with respect to all Letters of Credit in accordance with §14, an amount equal to the then Maximum Drawing Amount on all Letters of Credit, which amount shall be held by the Agent for the benefit of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers as cash collateral for all Reimbursement Obligations; and

Each such payment shall be made to the Agent at the Agent’s Office in immediately available funds. Interest on any and all amounts remaining unpaid by the Borrowers under this §5.2 at any time from the date such amounts become due and payable (whether as stated in this §5.2, by acceleration or otherwise) until payment in full (whether before or after judgment) shall be payable to the Agent on demand at the rate specified in §6.10 for principal on the Revolving Credit Loans.

5.3 Letter of Credit Payments. If any draft shall be presented or other demand for payment shall be made under any Letter of Credit, the applicable L/C Issuer shall notify the Borrowers of the date and amount of the draft presented or demand for payment and of the date and time when it expects to pay such draft or honor such demand for payment. If the Borrowers have not reimbursed the Agent, for the account of such L/C Issuer or (as the case may be) the Lenders, the Agent may at any time thereafter notify the Lenders of the amount of any such Unpaid Reimbursement Obligation. No later than 2:00 p.m. (Chicago time) on the Business Day next following the receipt of such notice, each Lender shall make available to the Agent, at the Agent’s Office, in immediately available funds, such Lender’s Letter of Credit Commitment Percentage of such Unpaid Reimbursement Obligation, together with an amount equal to the product of (i) the average, computed for the period referred to in clause (iii) below, of the weighted average interest rate paid by the Agent for federal funds acquired by the Agent during each day included in such period, times (ii) the amount equal to such Lender’s Letter of Credit Commitment Percentage of such Unpaid Reimbursement Obligation, times (iii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse from and including the date such L/C Issuer paid the draft presented for honor or otherwise made payment to the date on which such Lender’s Letter of Credit Commitment Percentage of such Unpaid Reimbursement obligation shall become immediately available to the Agent, and the denominator of which is 360. The responsibility of any L/C Issuer to the Borrowers and the Lenders shall be only to determine that the documents (including each draft) delivered under each Letter of Credit in connection with such presentment shall be in conformity in all material respects with such Letter of Credit. Interest on Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations shall be payable on the last day of each calendar month with respect to interest accrued during such calendar month at the rate specified in §6.10 for principal on the Revolving Credit Loans.

5.4 Obligations Absolute. (a) The Borrowers’ obligations under this §5 shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default or any condition precedent whatsoever or any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment which any of the Borrowers may have or have had against the Agent, any L/C Issuer any Lender or any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit, other than claims arising due to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender. Each of the Borrowers further agrees with the Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Lenders that neither the Agent, any L/C Issuer nor any Lender shall be responsible for, and the Borrowers’ Reimbursement Obligations under §5.2 shall not be affected by, among other things, the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even if such documents should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, fraudulent or forged, or any dispute between or among the Borrowers, the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any financing institution or other party to which any Letter of Credit may be transferred or any claims or defenses whatsoever of any of the Borrowers against the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any such transferee. The Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Lenders shall not be liable for any error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with any Letter of Credit. Each of the Borrowers agrees that any action taken or omitted by the Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender under or in connection with each Letter of Credit and the related drafts and documents, if done in good faith, shall be binding upon the Borrowers and shall not result in any liability on the part of the Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender to the Borrowers.

(b) The obligations of the Lenders under §5.1.4 and §5.1.5 above shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Credit Agreement irrespective of (A) (i) the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision in any Letter of Credit, any document transferring or purporting to transfer a Letter of Credit, any Loan Document (including the sufficiency of any such instrument), or any modification to any provision of any of the foregoing, (ii) any document presented under a Letter of Credit being forged, fraudulent, invalid, insufficient or inaccurate in any respect or failing to comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or (iii) any loss or delay, including in the transmission of any document, (B) the existence of any setoff, claim, abatement, recoupment, defense or other right that any Person (including any Borrower) may have against the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any other Person, whether in connection with any Loan Document or any other contractual obligation or transaction, or the existence of any other withholding, abatement or reduction, (C) (i) the failure of any condition precedent set forth in §13 to be satisfied (each of which conditions precedent the Lenders hereby irrevocably waive) or (ii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of any Borrower and (D) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind of Agent or any other Person or any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this clause (b), constitute a legal or equitable discharge of any obligation of any Lender hereunder.

5.5 Reliance by Issuer. To the extent not inconsistent with §5.4, each L/C Issuer shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, any Letter of Credit, draft, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by such L/C Issuer. The Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Credit Agreement unless it shall first have received such advice or concurrence of the Majority Lenders as it reasonably deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Credit Agreement in accordance with a request of the Majority Lenders, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon the Lenders and all future holders of the Revolving Credit Notes or of a Letter of Credit Participation.

5.6 Letter of Credit Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to Agent for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, as compensation to such Lenders for obligations incurred by Lenders at the request of the Borrowers, whether direct or indirect, contingent or otherwise, due or not due, in connection with the issuance of Letters of Credit by L/C Issuers hereunder or in connection with the reimbursement obligations and the purchase of a participation as set forth in §5.1.4 and §5.1.5 above with respect to Letters of Credit issued hereunder (collectively, “Letter of Credit Obligations”), (i) without duplication of costs and expenses otherwise payable to Agent or Lenders hereunder or fees otherwise paid by the Borrowers, all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Agent or any Lender on account of such obligations with respect to any Letter of Credit issued hereunder, and (ii) for each month during which any Letter of Credit Obligation shall remain outstanding, a fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) in an amount equal to the product of the average daily undrawn face amount of all Letters of Credit issued, guaranteed or supported by risk participation agreements multiplied by a per annum rate equal to 4.50%; provided, however, at Agent’s or Majority Lenders’ option, while an Event of Default exists, such rate shall be increased by two percent (2.00%) per annum. Such fee shall be paid to Agent for the benefit of the Lenders in arrears, on the first day of each calendar month and on the Maturity Date. In addition, the Borrower shall pay to each L/C Issuer, on demand, such reasonable fees, without duplication of fees otherwise payable hereunder (including all per annum fees), charges and expenses of such L/C Issuer in respect of the issuance, negotiation, acceptance, amendment, transfer and payment of such Letter of Credit or otherwise payable pursuant to the application and related documentation under which such Letter of Credit is issued.

All payments of principal, interest, Reimbursement Obligations, commitment fees, Letter of Credit Fees and any other amounts due hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents shall be made to the Agent (for the ratable account of the Persons entitled thereto), at the Agent’s Office at the address for payment specified in the signature page hereof in relation to the Agent or at such other location that the Agent may from time to time designate, in each case at or about 12:00 p.m. (Chicago time) in immediately available funds.

6.2.2 No Offset, etc.

(a) Any and all payments by the Borrowers hereunder and under any of the other Loan Documents shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. In addition, each Borrower shall pay all Other Taxes to the relevant governmental authority as required by applicable law.

(b) Subject to §6.2.2(f), the Borrowers agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify and hold harmless each Lender and the Agent for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this §6.2.2) paid by such Lender or the Agent and any liability (including penalties, interest, additions to tax and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. Payment under this indemnification shall be made within thirty (30) days after the date any Lender (through the Agent) or the Agent makes written demand therefor.

(c) If any Borrower or the applicable withholding agent shall be required by law to deduct or withhold any Taxes or Other Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to any Lender or the Agent, then, subject to §6.2.2(f):

(i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions and withholdings of Taxes or Other Taxes (including deductions and withholdings of Taxes or Other Taxes applicable to additional sums payable under this §6.2.2) such Lender or the Agent, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made;

(ii) such Borrower or the applicable withholding agent shall make such deductions and withholdings; and

(iii) such Borrower or the applicable withholding agent shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant taxing authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law.

(d) Within thirty (30) days after the date of any payment by any Borrower of Taxes or Other Taxes, such Borrower shall furnish the Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof, or other evidence of payment reasonably satisfactory to the Agent.

(e) If any Borrower is required to pay additional amounts to any Lender or the Agent pursuant to subsection (b) or (c) of this §6.2.2, then such Lender shall use commercially reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its lending office so as to eliminate any such additional payment by such Borrower which may thereafter accrue, if such change in the judgment of such Lender is not otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

(f) No Borrower shall be obligated to indemnify any Lender or the Agent pursuant to §6.2.2(b) or gross up any payments to any Lender or the Agent pursuant to §6.2.2(c) in respect of United States federal withholding taxes to the extent such Lender or the Agent is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States and to the extent imposed as a result of (i) the failure of such Lender or the Agent to deliver the relevant form or forms prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service of the United States referred to in §6.2.2(h) if the Agent or such Lender is entitled under the Code to deliver such forms, (ii) the information or certifications made in such forms being untrue or inaccurate on the date delivered or such form or forms not establishing a complete exemption for United States withholding taxes (except by reason of a change in United States tax laws or regulations occurring after the Closing Date) or (iii) such Lender or the Agent designating a successor lending office which has the effect of causing such Lender or Agent to become obligated for tax payments (or being subject to added United States federal withholding taxes) in excess of those in effect immediately prior to such designation, unless such designation is made at the request of a Borrower.

(g) If a Lender or the Agent receives the benefit of a refund or credit which it determines in its sole discretion is attributable to any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by a Borrower, or with respect to which a Borrower has paid increased amounts hereunder, it shall within thirty (30) days after the date of such receipt pay over the amount of such refund or credit (to the extent so attributable) to such Borrower, net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of such Lender or the Agent related to claiming such refund or credit; provided, however, that (i) any Lender or the Agent may determine, in its sole discretion consistent with the policies of such Lender or the Agent, whether to seek such a refund or credit; (ii) any Taxes or Other Taxes that are imposed on a Lender or the Agent as a result of a disallowance or reduction (including through the expiration of any tax credit carryover or carryback of such lender or the Agent that otherwise would not have expired) of any such refund or credit with respect to which such Lender or the Agent has made a payment to a Borrower pursuant to this §6.2.2(g) shall be treated as a Tax for which a Borrower is obligated to indemnify such Lender or the Agent pursuant to this §6.2.2 without any setoff, counterclaims, exclusions or defenses; and (iii) nothing in this §6.2.2(g) shall require the Lenders or the Agent to disclose any confidential information to a Borrower (including, without limitation, its tax returns).

(h) Each Lender and the Agent shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Agent:

(i) in the case of a Lender or Agent that is a “United States person” within the meaning of the Code, executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(ii) in the case of a Lender or Agent that is not a “United States person” within the meaning of the Code;

(A) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding tax pursuant to the “interest” article of an applicable income tax treaty to which the United States is a party and with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(B) executed originals or Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI; or

(C) executed originals or Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN along with a certificate that such Lender or Agent is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the relevant Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code; and

(D) 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 applicable withholding agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made;

(iii) if a payment made to a Lender or the Agent under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender or the Agent 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 or the Agent shall deliver to the Borrower or the applicable withholding agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the applicable withholding 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 applicable withholding agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the applicable withholding agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender or the Agent has complied with such Lender’s or Agent’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (iii), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Credit Agreement.

(i) For purposes of this Section 6.2.2, the term “Lender” includes any L/C Issuer.

6.3 Computations. All computations of interest on the Loans and of commitment fees, Letter of Credit Fees or other fees shall be based on a 360-day year and paid for the actual number of days elapsed. Whenever a payment hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents becomes due on a day that is not a Business Day, the due date for such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and interest shall accrue during such extension. The outstanding amount of the Loans as reflected on the Revolving Credit Note Records from time to time shall be considered correct and binding on the Borrowers absent manifest error.

6.4 [Intentionally Omitted].

6.5 [Intentionally Omitted].

6.6 Additional Costs, etc.

(a) If any future applicable law or any change in interpretation of any present law, which expression, as used herein, includes statutes, rules and regulations thereunder and interpretations thereof by any competent court or by any governmental or other regulatory body or official charged with the administration or the interpretation thereof and requests, directives, instructions and notices at any time or from time to time hereafter made upon or otherwise issued to any Lender or the Agent by any central bank or other fiscal, monetary or other authority (whether or not having the force of law), shall:

(i) subject any Lender or the Agent to any tax, levy, impost, duty, charge, fee, deduction or withholding of any nature with respect to this Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents, any Letters of Credit, such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment or the Loans (other than taxes based upon or measured by the income or profits of such Lender or the Agent, taxes imposed by FATCA and taxes covered by §6.2.2), or

(ii) impose or increase or render applicable (other than to the extent specifically provided for elsewhere in this Credit Agreement) any special deposit, reserve, assessment, liquidity, capital adequacy or other similar requirements (whether or not having the force of law) against assets held by, or deposits in or for the account of, or loans by, or letters of credit issued by, or commitments of an office of any Lender, or

(iii) impose on any Lender or the Agent any other conditions or requirements with respect to this Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents, any Letters of Credit, the Loans, such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment, or any class of loans, letters of credit or commitments of which any of the Loans or such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment forms a part;

and the result of any of the foregoing is:

(A) to increase the cost to any Lender of making, funding, issuing, renewing, extending or maintaining any of the Loans or such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment or any Letter of Credit, or

(B) to reduce the amount of principal, interest, Reimbursement Obligation or other amount payable to such Lender or the Agent hereunder on account of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment, any Letter of Credit or any of the Loans, or

(C) to require such Lender or the Agent to make any payment or to forego any interest or Reimbursement Obligation or other sum payable hereunder, the amount of which payment or foregone interest or Reimbursement Obligation or other sum is calculated by reference to the gross amount of any sum receivable or deemed received by such Lender or the Agent from the Borrowers hereunder,

then, and in each such case, the Borrowers will, upon demand made by such Lender or (as the case may be) the Agent at any time and from time to time and as often as the occasion therefor may arise, pay to such Lender or the Agent such additional amounts as will be sufficient to compensate such Lender or the Agent for such additional cost, reduction, payment or foregone interest or Reimbursement Obligation or other sum.

(b) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation for any increased costs or reductions in amounts received or receivable or reductions in return on capital shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be under any obligation to compensate any Lender under subclause (a) above with respect to increased costs or reductions with respect to any period prior to the date that is one year prior to such request if such Lender knew or could reasonably have been expected to know of the circumstances giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of the fact that such circumstances would in fact result in a claim for increased compensation by reason of such increased costs or reductions; provided, further, that the foregoing limitation shall not apply to any increased costs or reductions arising out of the retroactive application of any law, regulation, rule, guideline or directive as aforesaid within such one year period.

6.7 Capital Adequacy.

(a) If after the date hereof any Lender or the Agent determines that (i) the adoption of or change in any law, governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law) regarding capital requirements for banks or bank holding companies or any change in the interpretation or application thereof by a court or governmental authority with appropriate jurisdiction, or (ii) compliance by such Lender or the Agent or any corporation controlling such Lender or the Agent with any such law, governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline or directive issued after the date hereof (whether or not having the force of law) of any such entity regarding capital adequacy, has the effect of reducing the return on such Lender’s or the Agent’s commitment with respect to any Loans to a level below that which such Lender or the Agent could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the Agent’s then existing policies with respect to capital adequacy and assuming full utilization of such entity’s capital) by any amount deemed by such Lender or (as the case may be) the Agent to be material, then such Lender or the Agent may notify the Borrowers of such fact. To the extent that the amount of such reduction in the return on capital is not reflected in the Base Rate, the Borrowers agree to pay such Lender or (as the case may be) the Agent for the amount of such reduction in the return on capital as and when such reduction is determined upon presentation by such Lender or (as the case may be) the Agent of a certificate in accordance with §6.8 hereof. Each Lender shall allocate such cost increases among its customers in good faith and on an equitable basis.

(b) Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of §§ 6.2.2, 6.6 or 6.7 with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested in writing by the Borrowers, use commercially reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another lending office for any Loans affected by such event with the object of avoiding the consequences of such event; provided, that such designation is made on terms that, in the sole judgment of such Lender, cause such Lender and its lending office(s) to suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage; provided, further, that nothing in this §6.7 shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrowers or the rights of any Lender or the Agent pursuant to §§ 6.2.2, 6.6 or 6.7.

(c) Upon receipt by the Borrowers from any Lender (an “Affected Lender”) of a claim under §§ 6.2.2, 6.6 or 6.7, the Borrowers may:

(i) request one or more of the other Lenders to acquire and assume all or part of such Affected Lender’s Loans and Revolving Credit Commitment, provided that no Lender shall be required to accede to any such request; or

(ii) replace such Affected Lender with another Lender or an Eligible Assignee; provided that (A) such other Lender or Eligible Assignee agrees to be the replacement Lender, (B) such replacement does not conflict with any requirement of law, (C) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, (D) the Borrowers shall repay (or the replacement Lender shall purchase, at par) all Loans, accrued interest and other amounts owing to such replaced Lender prior to the date of replacement, (E) the replacement Lender, if not already a Lender, shall be an Eligible Assignee and reasonably satisfactory to the Agent, (F) the replaced Lender shall be obligated to make such replacement in accordance with the provisions of §20 (provided that the Borrowers or the replacement Lender shall be obligated to pay the registration and processing fee) and (G) the Borrowers shall pay all additional amounts (if any) required pursuant to §§ 6.2.2, 6.6 or 6.7, as the case may be, to the extent such additional amounts were incurred on or prior to the consummation of such replacement.

6.8 Certificate. A certificate setting forth any additional amounts payable pursuant to §§6.6 or 6.7 and a brief explanation of such amounts which are due including the calculation thereof in reasonable detail, submitted by any Lender or the Agent to the Borrowers, shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, that such amounts are due and owing.

6.9 [Intentionally Omitted].

6.10 Interest After Default. At the election of the Agent or the Majority Lenders while any Event of Default exists (or automatically while any Event of Default under §14.1(a) or §14.1(b) exists), the principal of all Loans, the Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations and (to the extent permitted by law) unpaid interest thereon shall, until such Event of Default has been cured or remedied or such Event of Default has been waived by the Lenders pursuant to §27, bear interest compounded monthly and payable on demand at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate then in effect plus the Applicable Margin plus two percent (2%) per annum.

6.11 Concerning Joint and Several Liability of the Borrowers.

(a) Each of the Borrowers is accepting joint and several liability hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in consideration of the financial accommodations to be provided by the Lenders and the Agent under this Credit Agreement, for the mutual benefit, directly and indirectly, of each of the Borrowers and in consideration of the undertakings of each other Borrower to accept joint and several liability for the Obligations.

(b) Each of the Borrowers, jointly and severally, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally accepts, not merely as a surety but also as a co-debtor, joint and several liability with the other Borrowers, with respect to the payment and performance of all of the Obligations (including, without limitation, any Obligations arising under this §6.11), it being the intention of the parties hereto that all the Obligations shall be the joint and several obligations of each of the Borrowers without preferences or distinction among them.

(c) If and to the extent that any of the Borrowers shall fail to make any payment with respect to any of the Obligations as and when due or to perform any of the Obligations in accordance with the terms thereof, then in each such event the other Borrowers will make such payment with respect to, or perform, such Obligation.

(d) The Obligations of each of the Borrowers under the provisions of this §6.11 constitute the full recourse Obligations of each of the Borrowers enforceable against each such Borrower to the full extent of its properties and assets, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of this Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any other circumstance whatsoever as to any other Borrower.

(e) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, each Borrower hereby waives promptness, diligence, presentment, demand, protest, notice of acceptance of its joint and several liability, notice of any and all advances of the Loans made under this Credit Agreement and the Notes, notice of occurrence of any Default or Event of Default (except to the extent notice is expressly required to be given pursuant to the terms of this Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents), or of any demand for any payment under this Credit Agreement, notice of any action at any time taken or omitted by the Agent or the Lenders under or in respect of any of the Obligations hereunder, any requirement of diligence and, generally, all demands, notices and other formalities of every kind in connection with this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Borrower hereby waives all defenses which may be available by virtue of any valuation, stay, moratorium law or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, any right to require the marshaling of assets of the Borrowers and any other entity or Person primarily or secondarily liable with respect to any of the Obligations, and all suretyship defenses generally. Each Borrower hereby assents to, and waives notice of, any extension or postponement of the time for the payment, or place or manner for payment, compromise, refinancing, consolidation or renewals of any of the Obligations hereunder, the acceptance of any partial payment thereon, any waiver, consent or other action or acquiescence by the Agent and the Lenders at any time or times in respect of any default by any Borrower in the performance or satisfaction of any term, covenant, condition or provision of this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, any and all other indulgences whatsoever by the Agent and the Lenders in respect of any of the Obligations hereunder, and the taking, addition, substitution or release, in whole or in part, at any time or

times, of any security for any of such Obligations or the addition, substitution or release, in whole or in part, of any Borrower or any other entity or Person primarily or secondarily liable for any Obligation. Such Borrower further agrees that its Obligations shall not be released or discharged, in whole or in part, or otherwise affected by the adequacy of any rights which the Agent or any Lender may have against any collateral security or other means of obtaining repayment of any of the Obligations, the impairment of any collateral security securing the Obligations, including, without limitation, the failure to protect or preserve any rights which the Agent or any Lender may have in such collateral security or the substitution, exchange, surrender, release, loss or destruction of any such collateral security, any other act or omission which might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of such Borrower, or otherwise operate as a release or discharge of such Borrower, all of which may be done without notice to such Borrower; provided, however, that the foregoing shall in no way be deemed to create commercially unreasonable standards as to the Agent’s duties as secured party under the Loan Documents (as such rights and duties are set forth therein). If for any reason any of the other Borrowers has no legal existence or is under no legal obligation to discharge any of the Obligations, or if any of the Obligations have become irrecoverable from any of the other Borrowers by reason of such other Borrower’s insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization or by other operation of law or for any reason, this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party shall nevertheless be binding on such Borrower to the same extent as if such Borrower at all times had been the sole obligor on such Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Borrower assents to any other action or delay in acting or failure to act on the part of the Agent and the Lenders, including, without limitation, any failure strictly or diligently to assert any right or to pursue any remedy or to comply fully with applicable laws or regulations thereunder which might, but for the provisions of this §6.11, afford grounds for terminating, discharging or relieving such Borrower, in whole or in part, from any of its obligations under this §6.11, it being the intention of each Borrower that, so long as any of the Obligations hereunder remain unsatisfied, the obligations of such Borrower under this §6.11 shall not be discharged except by performance and then only to the extent of such performance. The Obligations of each Borrower under this §6.11 shall not be diminished or rendered unenforceable by any winding up, reorganization, arrangement, liquidation, reconstruction or similar proceeding with respect to any reconstruction or similar proceeding with respect to any other Borrower, or any of the Lenders. The joint and several liability of the Borrowers hereunder shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any absorption, merger, amalgamation or any other change whatsoever in the name, ownership, membership, constitution or place of formation of any Borrower or the Lenders. Each of the Borrowers acknowledges and confirms that it has itself established its own adequate means of obtaining from each of the other Borrowers on a continuing basis all information desired by such Borrower concerning the financial condition of each of the other Borrowers and that each such Borrower will look to each of the other Borrowers and not to the Agent or any Lender in order for such Borrower to keep adequately informed of changes in each of the other Borrowers’ respective financial conditions.

(f) The provisions of this §6.11 are made for the benefit of the Lenders and the Agent and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and may be enforced by it or them from time to time against any or all of the Borrowers as often as occasion therefor may arise and without requirement on the part of the Lenders or the Agent or such successor or assign first to xxxxxxxx any of its or their claims or to exercise any of its or their rights against any of the other Borrowers or to exhaust any remedies available to it or them against any of the other Borrowers or to resort to any other source or means of obtaining payment of any of the Obligations hereunder or to elect any other remedy. The provisions of this §6.11 shall remain in effect until all of the Obligations shall have been paid in full or otherwise fully satisfied. If at any time, any payment, or any part thereof, made in respect of any of the Obligations, is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by any Lender or the Agent upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any of the Borrowers, or otherwise, the provisions of this §6.11 will forthwith be reinstated in effect, as though such payment had not been made.

(g) Each of the Borrowers hereby agrees that it will not enforce any of its rights of reimbursement, contribution, subrogation or the like against the other Borrowers with respect to any liability incurred by it hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, any payments made by it to any of the Lenders or the Agent with respect to any of the Obligations or any collateral security therefor until such time as all of the Obligations have been irrevocably paid in full in cash. Any claim which any Borrower may have against any other Borrower with respect to any payments to the Lenders or the Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Documents are hereby expressly made subordinate and junior in right of payment, without limitation as to any increases in the Obligations arising hereunder or thereunder, to the prior payment in full of the Obligations and, in the event of any insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership, liquidation, reorganization or other similar proceeding under the laws of any jurisdiction relating to any Borrower, its debts or its assets, whether voluntary or involuntary, all such Obligations shall be paid in full before any payment or distribution of any character, whether in cash, securities or other property, shall be made to any other Borrower therefor.

(h) Each of the Borrowers hereby agrees that the payment of any amounts due with respect to the indebtedness owing by any Borrower to any other Borrower is hereby subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of the Obligations. Each Borrower hereby agrees that after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default or Event of Default, such Borrower will not demand, xxx for or otherwise attempt to collect any indebtedness of any other Borrower owing to such Borrower until the Obligations shall have been paid in full in cash. If, notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, such Borrower shall collect, enforce or receive any amounts in respect of such indebtedness, such amounts shall be collected, enforced and received by such Borrower as trustee for the Agent and be paid over to the Agent for the pro rata accounts of the Lenders to be applied to repay the Obligations.

7. PARENT GUARANTY; SUPER PRIORITY NATURE OF OBLIGATIONS AND LENDERS’ LIENS.

7.1 Parent Guaranty.

(a) Parent hereby absolutely and unconditionally guarantees, as a guaranty of payment and performance and not merely as a guaranty of collection, prompt payment when due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, upon acceleration, demand or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, of the Obligations, including all renewals, extensions, amendments, refinancings and other modifications thereof and all costs, attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred by the Agent and any Lender in connection with the collection or enforcement thereof, and whether recovery upon such Obligations may be or hereafter become unenforceable or shall be an allowed or disallowed claim under any proceeding or case commenced by or against Parent or any Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code, any successor statute or any other liquidation, conservatorship, bankruptcy, assignment for the benefit of creditors, moratorium, rearrangement, receivership, insolvency, reorganization, or similar debtor relief laws of the United States or other applicable jurisdictions from time to time in effect and affecting the rights of creditors generally (collectively, “Debtor Relief Laws”), and including interest that accrues after the commencement by or against any Borrower of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws (collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”). The Agent’s and the Lenders’ books and records showing the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be admissible in evidence in any action or proceeding, and shall be binding upon Parent and conclusive for the purpose of establishing the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations. The guaranty under this §7.1 (this “Guaranty”) shall not be affected by the genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any instrument or agreement evidencing any Guaranteed Obligations, or by the existence, validity, enforceability, perfection, non-perfection or extent of any collateral therefor, or by any fact or circumstance relating to the Guaranteed Obligations which might otherwise constitute a defense to the obligations of Parent under this Guaranty, and Parent hereby irrevocably waives any defenses it may now have or hereafter acquire in any way relating to any or all of the foregoing.

(b) Parent shall make all payments hereunder without setoff or counterclaim and free and clear of and without deduction for any taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions, withholdings, compulsory loans, restrictions or conditions of any nature now or hereafter imposed or levied by any jurisdiction or any political subdivision thereof or taxing or other authority therein unless Parent is compelled by law to make such deduction or withholding. If any such obligation (other than one arising with respect to taxes based on or measured by the income or profits of the Agent or any Lender) is imposed upon Parent with respect to any amount payable by it hereunder, Parent will pay to such Person, on the date on which such amount is due and payable hereunder, such additional amount in U.S. dollars as shall be necessary to enable such Person to receive the same net amount which such Person would have received on such due date had no such obligation been imposed upon Parent. Parent will deliver promptly, upon written demand, to the Agent and the Lenders certificates or other valid vouchers for all taxes or other charges deducted from or paid with respect to payments made by Parent hereunder. The obligations of Parent under this paragraph shall survive the payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations and termination of this Credit Agreement.

(c) Parent consents and agrees that the Agent and the Lenders may, at any time and from time to time, without notice or demand, and without affecting the enforceability or continuing effectiveness hereof: (a) amend, extend, renew, compromise, discharge, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment or the terms of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof; (b) take, hold, exchange, enforce, waive, release, fail to perfect, sell, or otherwise dispose of any security for the payment of this Guaranty or any Guaranteed Obligations; (c) apply such security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as the Lender in its sole discretion may determine; and (d) release or substitute one or more of any endorsers or other guarantors of any of the Guaranteed Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Parent consents to the taking of, or failure to take, any action which might in any manner or to any extent vary the risks of Parent under this Guaranty or which, but for this provision, might operate as a discharge of Parent.

(d) Parent waives (a) any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense of any Borrower or any other guarantor, or the cessation from any cause whatsoever (including any act or omission of the Agent or any Lender) of the liability of any Borrower; (b) any defense based on any claim that Parent’s obligations exceed or are more burdensome than those of any Borrower; (c) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting Parent’s liability hereunder; (d) any right to require the Agent or any Lender to proceed against any Borrower, proceed against or exhaust any security for the Indebtedness, or pursue any other remedy in the Agent’s or any Lender’s power whatsoever; (e) any benefit of and any right to participate in any security now or hereafter held by the Agent or any Lender; and (f) to the fullest extent permitted by law, any and all other defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by applicable law limiting the liability of or exonerating guarantors or sureties, in each case, of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to Parent’s payment and performance of the Guarantied Obligations. Parent expressly waives all setoffs and counterclaims and all presentments, demands for payment or performance, notices of nonpayment or nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and all other notices or demands of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, and all notices of acceptance of this Guaranty or of the existence, creation or incurrence of new or additional Guaranteed Obligations.

(e) The obligations of Parent hereunder are those of primary obligor, and not merely as surety, and are independent of the Guaranteed Obligations and the obligations of any other guarantor, and a separate action may be brought against Parent to enforce this Guaranty whether or not any Borrower or any other person or entity is joined as a party.

(f) Parent shall not exercise any right of subrogation, contribution, indemnity, reimbursement or similar rights with respect to any payments it makes under this Guaranty until all of the Guaranteed Obligations and any amounts payable under this Guaranty have been indefeasibly paid and performed in full and any commitments of the Agent and the Lenders or facilities provided by the Agent and the Lenders with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations are terminated. If any amounts are paid to Parent in violation of the foregoing limitation, then such amounts shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders and shall forthwith be paid to the Agent, for the benefit of itself and the Lenders, to reduce the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured.

(g) This Guaranty is a continuing and irrevocable guaranty of all Guaranteed Obligations now or hereafter existing and shall remain in full force and effect until all Guaranteed Obligations and any other amounts payable under this Guaranty are indefeasibly paid in full in cash and all commitments of the Agent and the Lenders or facilities provided by the Agent and the Lenders with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations are terminated. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Guaranty shall continue in full force and effect or be revived, as the case may be, if any payment by or on behalf of any Borrower or Parent is made, or the Agent or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Agent or any Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws or otherwise, all as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred and whether or not the Agent is in possession of or has released this Guaranty and regardless of any prior revocation, rescission, termination or reduction. The obligations of Parent under this paragraph shall survive termination of this Guaranty.

(h) Parent hereby subordinates the payment of all obligations and indebtedness of the Borrowers owing to Parent, whether now existing or hereafter arising, including but not limited to any obligation of the Borrowers to Parent as subrogee of the Agent or any Lender or resulting from Parent’s performance under this Guaranty, to the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all Guaranteed Obligations. If the Agent so requests, any such obligation or indebtedness of the Borrowers to Parent shall be enforced and performance received by Parent as trustee for the Agent and the Lenders and the proceeds thereof shall be paid over to the Agent, for the benefit of itself and the Lenders, on account of the Guaranteed Obligations, but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of Parent under this Guaranty.

(i) In the event that acceleration of the time for payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is stayed, in connection with any case commenced by or against Parent or any Borrower under any Debtor Relief Laws, or otherwise, all such amounts shall nonetheless be payable by Parent immediately upon demand by the Agent.

7.2 Super Priority of Obligations and Agent’s Liens. The priority of Agent’s liens on the Debtors’ Collateral shall be set forth in the Interim Order and the Final Order.

7.3 Grant of Liens. Each Debtor hereby grants to the Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders and the Agent, to secure the payment and performance in full of all of the Obligations, a security interest in and pledges and assigns to the Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders and the Agent, the following properties, assets and rights of such Debtor, wherever located, whether now owned or hereafter acquired or arising, and all proceeds and products thereof: all personal and fixture property of every kind and nature including all goods (including inventory, equipment and any accessions thereto), instruments (including promissory notes), documents (including, if applicable, electronic documents), accounts, chattel paper (whether tangible or electronic), deposit accounts, letter-of-credit rights (whether or not the letter of credit is evidenced by a writing), commercial tort claims, securities and all other investment property, supporting obligations, any other contract rights or rights to the payment of money, insurance claims and proceeds, all general intangibles (including all payment intangibles) and all products and proceeds of any or all of the foregoing (including all Post-Petition property, including Postpetition Transfer Avoidance Actions but excluding all other Avoidance Actions). As used in this §7.3, all terms defined in the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of Illinois and used herein shall have the same definitions herein as specified therein. Without limiting the foregoing, Obligations shall also be secured by the Prepetition First Liens, which shall remain in full force and effect and continue from and after the Petition Date to secure both Obligations and the Pre-Petition Obligations (with Obligations having priority in accordance with the terms of the DIP Orders). Security interests, liens and pledges granted to the Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders and the Agent, to secure the payment and performance in full of all of the Obligations, shall include the Prepetition First Liens solely to the extent that they secure Obligations as provided herein and in the DIP Orders.

8.14 Employee Benefit Plans.

8.14.1 In General. Each Employee Benefit Plan and each Guaranteed Pension Plan has been maintained and operated in compliance in all material respects with the provisions of ERISA and, to the extent applicable, the Code, including but not limited to the provisions thereunder respecting prohibited transactions and the bonding of fiduciaries and other persons handling plan funds as required by §412 of ERISA. The Borrowers have heretofore delivered to the Agent the most recently filed annual report, Form 5500, with all required attachments, and actuarial statement required to be submitted under §103(d) of ERISA, with respect to each Guaranteed Pension Plan.

8.14.2 Terminability of Welfare Plans. Except as set forth in Schedule 8.14.2, (a) no Employee Benefit Plan maintained or contributed to by the Borrowers or their Subsidiaries which is an employee welfare benefit plan within the meaning of §3(1) or §3(2)(B) of ERISA, provides benefit coverage subsequent to termination of employment, except as required by Title I, Part 6 of ERISA or the applicable state insurance laws and (b) the Borrowers, or their Subsidiaries, as the case may be, may terminate each such Plan at any time (or at any time subsequent to the expiration of any applicable bargaining agreement) in the discretion of the Borrowers or their Subsidiaries without liability to any Person other than for claims arising prior to termination.

8.14.3 Guaranteed Pension Plans. Each contribution required to be made to a Guaranteed Pension Plan, whether required to be made to avoid the incurrence of an accumulated funding deficiency, the notice or lien provisions of §302(f) of ERISA, or otherwise, has been timely made. No waiver of an accumulated funding deficiency or extension of amortization periods under §412 of the Code or §302 of ERISA has been received with respect to any Guaranteed Pension Plan, and neither any of the Borrowers nor any ERISA Affiliate is obligated to post or has posted security in connection with an amendment to a Guaranteed Pension Plan pursuant to §307 of ERISA or §401(a)(29) of the Code. No liability to the PBGC (other than required insurance premiums, all of which have been paid) has been incurred by any Borrower or any ERISA Affiliate with respect to any Guaranteed Pension Plan and no ERISA Reportable Event (other than an ERISA Reportable Event as to which the requirement of 30 days notice has been waived), nor any other event or condition which presents a material risk of termination of any Guaranteed Pension Plan by the PBGC, has occurred. Based on the latest valuation of each Guaranteed Pension Plan (which in each case occurred within twelve months of the date of this representation), and on the actuarial methods and assumptions employed for that valuation, the aggregate benefit liabilities of all such Guaranteed Pension Plans within the meaning of §4001 of ERISA did not exceed the aggregate value of the assets of all such Guaranteed Pension Plans, disregarding for this purpose the benefit liabilities and assets of any Guaranteed Pension Plan with assets in excess of benefit liabilities.

8.14.4 Multiemployer Plans. Neither any of the Borrowers nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred any material liability (including secondary liability) to any Multiemployer Plan as a result of a complete or partial withdrawal from such Multiemployer Plan under §4201 of ERISA or as a result of a sale of assets described in §4204 of ERISA. Neither any of the Borrowers nor any ERISA Affiliate has been notified that (a) any Multiemployer Plan is in reorganization or insolvent under and within the meaning of §4241 or §4245 of ERISA or is at risk of entering reorganization or becoming insolvent, or (b) that any Multiemployer Plan intends to terminate or has been terminated under §4041A of ERISA.

No termination of the credit hereunder shall relieve any of the Borrowers or their Subsidiaries of any of the Obligations.

14.3 Remedies. In case any one or more of the Events of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and whether or not the maturity of the Loans shall have been accelerated pursuant to §14.2, the Agent and each Lender, if owed any amount with respect to the Loans or the Reimbursement Obligations, may proceed to protect and enforce its rights by suit in equity, action at law or other appropriate proceeding, whether for the specific performance of any covenant or agreement contained in this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any instrument pursuant to which the Obligations to such Lender are evidenced, including as permitted by applicable law the obtaining of the ex parte appointment of a receiver, and, if such amount shall have become due, by declaration or otherwise, proceed to enforce the payment thereof or any other legal or equitable right of such Lender. No remedy herein conferred upon any Lender or the Agent or the holder of any Note or purchaser of any Letter of Credit Participation is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or any other provision of law. In addition, the Borrowers shall cooperate with the Agent in the transfer of any licenses or leases used in the business of the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries to the Agent or any other third party designated by the Agent.

Unless during such period the Bankruptcy Court determines that an Event of Default has not occurred and/or is not continuing, the automatic stay, as to the Lenders and the Agent, shall automatically terminate at the end of the Remedies Notice Period, without further notice or order. During the Remedies Notice Period, the Debtors may not use the proceeds of Loans hereunder, cash collateral, or other Collateral proceeds except to pay payroll and other expenses critical to keep the business of the Debtors operating in accordance with the Approved Budget.

14.4 Distribution of Collateral Proceeds. In the event that, following the occurrence or during the continuance of any Default or Event of Default, the Agent or any Lender, as the case may be, receives any monies in connection with the enforcement of any of the Loan Documents, or otherwise with respect to the realization upon any of the Collateral, such monies shall be distributed for application as follows:

(a) First, to the payment of, or (as the case may be) the reimbursement of the Agent for or in respect of all reasonable costs, expenses, disbursements and losses which shall have been incurred or sustained by the Agent in connection with the collection of such monies by the Agent, for the exercise, protection or enforcement by the Agent of all or any of the rights, remedies, powers and privileges of the Agent under this Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or in respect of the Collateral or in support of any provision of adequate indemnity to the Agent against any taxes or liens which by law shall have, or may have, priority over the rights of the Agent to such monies;

(b) Second, to all other Obligations in such order or preference as the Majority Lenders may determine; provided, however, that (i) distributions shall be made (A) pari passu among Obligations with respect to the Agent’s fee payable pursuant to the Fee Letter and all other Obligations and (B) with respect to each type of Obligation owing to the Lenders, such as interest, principal, fees and expenses, among the Lenders pro rata, and (ii) the Agent may in its discretion make proper allowance to take into account any Obligations not then due and payable;

(c) Third, upon payment and satisfaction in full or other provisions for payment in full satisfactory to the Lenders and the Agent of all of the Obligations, to the payment of any obligations required to be paid pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of Illinois; and

(d) Fourth, the excess, if any, shall be returned to the Borrowers or to such other Persons as are entitled thereto.

15. SETOFF.

15.1 Setoff. Regardless of the adequacy of any collateral, during the continuance of any Event of Default, any deposits or other sums credited by or due from any of the Lenders to any of the Borrowers and any securities or other property of any of the Borrowers in the possession of such Lender may be applied to or set off by such Lender against the payment of Obligations and any and all other liabilities, direct, or indirect, absolute or contingent, due or to become due, now existing or hereafter arising, of any of the Borrowers to the Lenders. Each of the Lenders agrees with each other Lender that (a) if an amount to be set off is to be applied to Indebtedness of any of the Borrowers to such Lender, other than Indebtedness evidenced by the Notes held by such Lender, such amount shall be applied ratably to such other Indebtedness and to the Indebtedness evidenced by all such Notes held by such Lender, and (b) if such Lender shall receive from any of the Borrowers, whether by voluntary payment, exercise of the right of setoff, counterclaim, cross action, enforcement of the claim evidenced by the Notes held by, such Lender by proceedings against such Borrower at law or in equity or by proof thereof in bankruptcy, reorganization, liquidation, receivership or similar proceedings, or otherwise, and shall retain and apply to the payment of the Note or Notes held by such Lender any amount in excess of its ratable portion of the payments received by all of the Lenders with respect to the Notes held by all of the Lenders, such Lender will make such disposition and arrangements with the other Lenders with respect to such excess, either by way of distribution, pro tanto assignment of claims, subrogation or otherwise as shall result in each Lender receiving in respect of the Notes held by it or its proportionate payment as contemplated by this Credit Agreement; provided that if all or any part of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such Lender, such disposition and arrangements shall be rescinded and the amount restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

15.2 Consent to Setoff. Notwithstanding the foregoing §15.1, at any time that the Loans or any other obligation shall be secured by real property located in California, no Lender or the Agent shall exercise a right of setoff, lien or counterclaim or take any court or administrative action or institute any proceeding to enforce any provision of this Credit Agreement or any Note unless it is taken with the consent of the Majority Lenders, or approved in writing by the Agent, if such setoff or action or proceeding would or might (pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 580a, 580b, 580d and 726 of The California Code of Civil Procedure or Section 2924 of the California Civil Code, if applicable, or otherwise) affect or impair the validity, priority, or enforceability of the liens granted to the Agent pursuant to the Loan Documents or the enforceability of the Notes and other obligations hereunder, and any attempted exercise by any Lender or the Agent of any such right without obtaining such consent of the Majority Lenders or the Agent shall be null and void. This §15.2 shall be solely for the benefit of each of the Lenders and the Agent hereunder.

16. THE AGENT.

16.1 Authorization.

(a) The Agent is authorized to take such action on behalf of each of the Lenders and to exercise all such powers as are hereunder and under any of the other Loan Documents and any related documents delegated to the Agent, together with such powers as are reasonably incident thereto, provided that no duties or responsibilities not expressly assumed herein or therein shall be implied to have been assumed by the Agent.

(b) The relationship between the Agent and each of the Lenders is that of an independent contractor. The use of the term “Agent” is for convenience only and is used to describe, as a form of convention, the independent contractual relationship between the Agent and each of the Lenders. Nothing contained in this Credit Agreement nor the other Loan Documents shall be construed to create an agency, trust or other fiduciary relationship between the Agent and any of the Lenders.

(c) As an independent contractor empowered by the Lenders to exercise certain rights and perform certain duties and responsibilities hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the Agent is nevertheless a “representative” of the Lenders, as that term is defined in Article 1 of the Uniform Commercial Code, for purposes of actions for the benefit of the Lenders and the Agent with respect to all collateral security and guaranties contemplated by the Loan Documents. Such actions include the designation of the Agent as “secured party”, “mortgagee” or the like on all financing statements and other documents and instruments, whether recorded or otherwise, relating to the attachment, perfection, priority or enforcement of any security interests, mortgages or deeds of trust in collateral security intended to secure the payment or performance of any of the Obligations, all for the benefit of the Lenders and the Agent.

16.2 Employees and Agents. The Agent may exercise its powers and execute its duties by or through employees or agents and shall be entitled to take, and to rely on, advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to its rights and duties under this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Agent may utilize the services of such Persons as the Agent in its sole discretion may reasonably determine, and all reasonable fees and expenses of any such Persons shall be paid by the Borrowers.

16.3 No Liability. Neither the Agent nor any of its shareholders, directors, officers or employees nor any other Person assisting them in their duties nor any agent or employee thereof, shall be liable for any waiver, consent or approval given or any action taken, or omitted to be taken, in good faith by it or them hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, or in connection herewith or therewith, or be responsible for the consequences of any oversight or error of judgment whatsoever, except that the Agent or such other Person, as the case may be, may be liable for losses due to its willful misconduct or gross negligence.

16.4 No Representations.

16.4.1 General. The Agent shall not be responsible for the execution or validity or enforceability of this Credit Agreement, the Notes, the Letters of Credit, any of the other Loan Documents or any instrument at any time constituting, or intended to constitute, collateral security for the Notes, or for the value of any such collateral security or for the validity, enforceability or collectability of any such amounts owing with respect to the Notes, or for any recitals or statements, warranties or representations made herein, in any of the other Loan Documents, or in any certificate or instrument hereafter furnished to it by or on behalf of any Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries, or be bound to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, covenants or agreements herein or in any instrument at any time constituting, or intended to constitute, collateral security for the Notes or to inspect any of the properties, books or records of any Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries. The Agent shall not be bound to ascertain whether any notice, consent, waiver or request delivered to it by any Borrower or any holder of any of the Notes shall have been duly authorized or is true, accurate and complete. The Agent has not made nor does it now make any representations or warranties, express or implied, nor does it assume any liability to the Lenders, with respect to the credit worthiness or financial conditions of any Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender, and based upon such information and documents as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Credit Agreement.

16.4.2 Closing Documentation, etc. For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions set forth in §12, each Lender that has executed this Credit Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted, or to be satisfied with, each document and matter either sent, or made available, by the Agent to such Lender for consent, approval, acceptance or satisfaction, or required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to such Lender, unless an officer of the Agent active upon the Borrowers’ account shall have received notice from such Lender prior to the Closing Date specifying such Lender’s objection thereto and such objection shall not have been withdrawn by notice to the Agent to such effect on or prior to the Closing Date.

16.5 Payments.

16.5.1 Payments to Agent. A payment by any Borrower to the Agent hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents for the account of any Lender shall constitute a payment to such Lender. The Agent agrees promptly (but in no case later than two Business Days after the receipt of such payments by the Agent) to distribute to each Lender such Lender’s pro rata share of payments received by the Agent for the account of the Lenders except as otherwise expressly provided herein or in any of the other Loan Documents.

16.5.2 Distribution by Agent. If in the opinion of the Agent the distribution of any amount received by it in such capacity hereunder, under the Notes or under any of the other Loan Documents might involve it in liability, it may refrain from making distribution until its right to make distribution shall have been adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction. If a court of competent jurisdiction shall adjudge that any amount received and distributed by the Agent is to be repaid, each Person to whom any such distribution shall have been made shall either repay to the Agent its proportionate share of the amount so adjudged to be repaid or shall pay over the same in such manner and to such Persons as shall be determined by such court.

16.5.3 Delinquent Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, any Lender that fails (i) to make available to the Agent its pro rata share of any Loan or to purchase any Letter of Credit Participation or (ii) to comply with the provisions of §15 with respect to making dispositions and arrangements with the other Lenders, where such Lender’s share of any payment received, whether by setoff or otherwise, is in excess of its pro rata share of such payments due and payable to all of the Lenders, in each case as, when and to the full extent required by the provisions of this Credit Agreement, shall be deemed delinquent (a “Delinquent Lender”) and shall be deemed a Delinquent Lender until such time as such delinquency is satisfied. A Delinquent Lender shall be deemed to have assigned any and all payments due to it from the Borrowers, whether on account of outstanding Loans, Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations, interest, fees or otherwise, to the remaining nondelinquent Lenders for application to, and reduction of, their respective pro rata shares of all outstanding Loans and Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations. The Delinquent Lender hereby authorizes the Agent to distribute such payments to the nondelinquent Lenders in proportion to their respective pro rata shares of all outstanding Loans and Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations. A Delinquent Lender shall be deemed to have satisfied in full a delinquency when and if, as a result of application of the assigned payments to all outstanding Loans and Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations of the nondelinquent Lenders, the Lenders’ respective pro rata shares of all outstanding Loans and Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations have returned to those in effect immediately prior to such delinquency and without giving effect to the nonpayment causing such delinquency.

16.6 Holders of Notes. The Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note or the purchaser of any Letter of Credit Participation as the absolute owner or purchaser thereof for all purposes hereof until it shall have been furnished in writing with a different name by such payee or by a subsequent holder, assignee or transferee.

16.7 Indemnity. The Lenders ratably agree hereby to indemnify and hold harmless the Agent and its affiliates from and against any and all claims, actions and suits (whether groundless or otherwise), losses, damages, costs, expenses (including any expenses for which the Agent or such affiliate has not been reimbursed by the Borrowers as required by §18), and liabilities of every nature and character arising out of or related to this Credit Agreement, the Notes, or any of the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated or evidenced hereby or thereby, or the Agent’s actions taken hereunder or thereunder, except to the extent that any of the same shall be directly caused by the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Agent.

16.8 Agent as Lender. In its individual capacity, GE Capital shall have the same obligations and the same rights, powers and privileges in respect to its Revolving Credit Commitment, and the Loans made by it, and as the holder of any of the Notes, as it would have were it not also the Agent.

16.9 Resignation. The Agent may resign at any time by giving sixty (60) days prior written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrowers. Upon any such resignation, the Majority Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent. Unless a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, such successor Agent shall be reasonably acceptable to the Borrowers. If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Majority Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be a financial institution having a rating of not less than A or its equivalent by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Group. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. After any retiring Agent’s resignation, the provisions of this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Agent.

16.10 Notification of Defaults and Events of Default; Other Notices. Each Lender hereby agrees that, upon learning of the existence of a Default or an Event of Default, it shall promptly notify the Agent thereof. The Agent hereby agrees that upon receipt of any notice under this §16.10 it shall promptly notify the other Lenders of the existence of such Default or Event of Default.

16.11 Duties in the Case of Enforcement. In case one of more Events of Default have occurred and shall be continuing, and whether or not acceleration of the Obligations shall have occurred, the Agent shall, if (i) so requested by the Majority Lenders and (ii) the Lenders have provided to the Agent such additional indemnities and assurances against expenses and liabilities as the Agent may reasonably request, proceed to enforce the provisions of the Loan Documents authorizing the sale or other disposition of all or any part of the Collateral and exercise all or any such other legal and equitable and other rights or remedies as it may have in respect of such Collateral. The Majority Lenders may direct the Agent in writing as to the method and the extent of any such sale or other disposition, the Lenders hereby agreeing to indemnify and hold the Agent, harmless from all liabilities incurred in respect of all actions taken or omitted in accordance with such directions, provided that the Agent need not comply with any such direction to the extent that the Agent reasonably believes the Agent’s compliance with such direction to be unlawful or commercially unreasonable in any applicable jurisdiction.

16.12 Agent May File Proofs of Claim.

(a) In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial, administrative or like proceeding or any assignment for the benefit of creditors relative to the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries, the Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan, Reimbursement Obligation or Unpaid Reimbursement Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrowers) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding, under any such assignment or otherwise:

(ii) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

(b) Any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such proceeding or under any such assignment is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Agent and, in the event that the Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, nevertheless to pay to the Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Agent under §§2.2, 5.6, 6.1, 6.2 and 18.1.

(c) Nothing contained herein shall authorize the Agent to consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations owed to such Lender or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding or under any such assignment.

104

20.8 Miscellaneous Assignment Provisions. Any assigning Lender shall retain its rights to be indemnified pursuant to §18 with respect to any claims or actions arising prior to the date of such assignment.

No such pledge or the enforcement thereof shall release the pledgor Lender from its obligations hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Credit Agreement, any Lender that is a fund that invests in bank loans may, without the consent of the Agent or the Borrowers, pledge all or any portion of any Loan or any Note held by it to any trustee for, or any other representative of, investors in, or holders of equity securities issued, by such fund, as security for such investment or securities; provided that any foreclosure or similar action by such trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this §20 concerning assignments.

20.9 Assignment by Borrowers. None of the Borrowers shall assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under any of the Loan Documents without the prior written consent of each of the Lenders.

20.10 Special Purpose Funding Vehicle. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this §20, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”) of such Granting Lender, identified as such in writing from time to time delivered by the Granting Lender to the Agent and the Borrowers, the option to provide to the Borrowers all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to the Borrowers pursuant to this Credit Agreement, provided that (a) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment to make any Loan by any SPC, (b) the Granting Bank’s obligations under this Credit Agreement shall remain unchanged, (c) the Granting Lender should retain the sole right to enforce this Credit Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Credit Agreement and (d) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by the Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPC shall be liable for any expense reimbursement, indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Credit Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the Granting Lender). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Credit Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the later of (i) the payment in full of all outstanding senior indebtedness of any SPC and (ii) the Maturity Date, it will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings or similar proceedings under the laws of the United States of America or any State thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this §20.10, any SPC may (A) with notice to, but (except as specified below) without the prior written consent of, the Borrowers or the Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to its Granting Lender or to any financial institutions (consented to by the Agent and, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrowers, which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) providing liquidity and/or credit facilities to or for the account of such SPC to fund the Loans made by such SPC or to support the securities (if any) issued by such SPC to fund such Loans and (B) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans (other than financial statements referred to in §8.4) to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of a surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC. In no event shall the Borrowers be obligated to pay to an SPC that has made a Loan any greater amount than the Borrowers would have been obligated to pay under this Credit Agreement if the Granting Lender had made such Loan. An amendment to this §20.10 without the written consent of an SPC shall be ineffective insofar as it alters the rights and obligations of such SPC.

105

26. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.

Each of the Borrowers hereby waives its right to a jury trial with respect to any action or claim arising out of any dispute in connection with this Credit Agreement, the Notes or any of the other Loan Documents, any rights or obligations hereunder or thereunder or the performance of which rights and obligations. Except as prohibited by law, each of the Borrowers hereby waives any right it may have to claim or recover in any litigation referred to in the preceding sentence any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages or any damages other than, or in addition to, actual damages.

108

27. CONSENTS, AMENDMENTS, WAIVERS, ETC.

Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Credit Agreement, any consent or approval required or permitted by this Credit Agreement to be given by the Lenders may be given, and any term of this Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other instrument related hereto or mentioned herein may be amended, and the performance or observance by any of the Borrowers or their Subsidiaries of any terms of this Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents or such other instrument or the continuance of any Default or Event of Default may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively) with, but only with, the written consent of the Borrowers and the written consent of the Majority Lenders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) the rate of interest on the Notes may not be decreased (other than interest accruing pursuant to §6.10.2 following the effective date of any waiver by the Majority Lenders of the Default or Event of Default relating thereto), (b) all or any portion of the Collateral with a book value equal to or greater than 50% of the aggregate book value of the Collateral prior to such release may not be released, (c) no Borrower or any Person that is liable, whether directly or contingently, for payment obligations hereunder may be released and (d) the term of the Notes, the timing or amount of any required payments of principal and interest hereunder, any rates of interest payable hereunder, the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders, the amount of commitment fees or Letter of Credit Fees hereunder, the definition of Majority Lenders and this §27 may not be changed without the written consent of the Borrowers and the written consent of each of the Lenders affected thereby; and the amount of the Agent’s fee under the Fee Letter, the Letter of Credit Fees or any other fees or amounts payable for the Agent’s account, and §5 or §16 may not be amended without the written consent of the Agent. No waiver shall extend to or affect any obligation not expressly waived or impair any right consequent thereon. No course of dealing or delay or omission on the part of the Agent or any Lender in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise be prejudicial thereto. No notice to or demand upon any Borrower shall entitle any Borrower to other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. Notwithstanding anything in this §27 to the contrary, the Agent may terminate its security interest in and otherwise release any Collateral or any Borrower sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of by any Borrower or any Subsidiary of any Borrower if such disposition is in compliance with §10.5.2 and otherwise with the terms hereof.

28. SEVERABILITY.

The provisions of this Credit Agreement are severable and if any one clause or provision hereof shall be held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, then such invalidity or unenforceability shall affect only such clause or provision, or part thereof, in such jurisdiction, and shall not in any manner affect such clause or provision in any other jurisdiction, or any other clause or provision of this Credit Agreement in any jurisdiction.

29. RIGHT TO PUBLICIZE.

Each of the Borrowers hereby acknowledges that the Agent will have the right to publicize the transactions contemplated hereby by means of a tombstone advertisement or other customary advertisement in newspapers and other periodicals. The Agent agrees to provide the Borrowers with the opportunity to review any such tombstone advertisement prior to publication thereof and to provide reasonable comments as to the accuracy and contents thereof.

109

30. USURY.

All agreements between the Borrowers, the Agent and the Lenders are hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of acceleration of the maturity of the indebtedness evidenced hereby, by any Note or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to the Lenders and the Agent for the use or the forbearance of the Indebtedness evidenced hereby or by the Notes exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable law. As used herein, the term “applicable law” shall mean the law in effect as of the date hereof provided, however, that in the event there is a change in the law which results in a higher permissible rate of interest, then this Credit Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents shall be governed by such new law as of its effective date. In this regard, it is expressly agreed that it is the intent of the Borrowers, the Agent and the Lenders, in the execution, delivery and acceptance of the Notes, to contract in strict compliance with the laws of the State of Illinois from time to time in effect. If, under any circumstances whatsoever, performance or fulfillment of any provision of this Credit Agreement, the Notes or any of the other Loan Documents at the time such provision is to be performed or fulfilled shall involve exceeding the limit of validity prescribed by applicable law, then the obligation so to be performed or fulfilled shall be reduced automatically to the limits of such validity, and if under any circumstances whatsoever the Lenders and the Agent should ever receive as interest an amount which would exceed the highest lawful rate, such amount which would be excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance evidenced by the Notes and not to the payment of interest. The provisions of this §30 shall control every other provision of this Credit Agreement and the Notes.

110

31. BANKRUPTCY MATTERS.

31.1 Parties Including Trustees; Bankruptcy Court Proceedings. This Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and all liens and other rights and privileges created hereby or pursuant hereto or to any other Loan Document shall be binding upon each Debtor, the estate of each Debtor, and any trustee, other estate representative or any successor in interest of any Debtor in any Chapter 11 Cases or any subsequent case commenced under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code. This Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the successors of the Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Lenders and their respective assigns, transferees and endorsees. The liens created by this Credit Agreement, the DIP Orders and the other Loan Documents shall be and remain valid and perfected in the event of the substantive consolidation or conversion of any Chapter 11 Cases or any other bankruptcy case of any Debtor to a case under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code or in the event of dismissal of any Chapter 11 Cases or the release of any Collateral from the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court for any reason, without the necessity that the Agent file financing statements or otherwise perfect its liens under applicable law. No Debtor may assign, transfer, hypothecate or otherwise convey its rights, benefits, obligations or duties hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents without the prior express written consent of the Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Lenders. Any such purported assignment, transfer, hypothecation or other conveyance by any Debtor without the prior express written consent of the Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Lenders shall be void. The terms and provisions of this Credit Agreement are for the purpose of defining the relative rights and obligations of each Debtor, the Agent, the L/C Issuer and Lenders with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and no Person shall be a third party beneficiary of any of the terms and provisions of this Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.

31.2 Pre-Petition Loan Documents. Each Debtor hereby agrees that (i) this Credit Agreement is separate and distinct from the Pre-Petition Credit Agreement and (ii) the Pre-Petition Credit Agreement and other Pre-Petition Loan Documents are in full force and effect as of the date hereof. Each Debtor further agrees that by entering into this Credit Agreement, Lenders do not waive any Default or Event of Default under the Pre-Petition Loan Documents or any of their liens, claims, priorities, rights and remedies thereunder.

32. PATRIOT ACT. Each Lender that is subject to the Patriot Act hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act.
