References in this Agreement to "judgments" of the Agent and the Banks include good faith estimates by the Agent and the Banks (in the case of quantitative judgments) and good faith beliefs by the Agent and the Banks (in the case of qualitative judgments). The definition of any document or instrument includes all schedules, attachments, and exhibits thereto and all renewals, extensions, supplements, restatements and amendments thereof. "Hereunder", "herein", "hereto", "hereof", "this Agreement" and words of similar import refer to this entire document; "including" is used by way of illustration and not by way of limitation, unless the context clearly indicates to the contrary; and any action required to be taken by any Loan Party is to be taken promptly, unless the context clearly indicates to the contrary.

ARTICLE II

THE CREDIT FACILITIES

in an aggregate Dollar Equivalent principal amount which, when combined with the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Swing Line Loans and the aggregate Dollar Equivalent amount of Letters of Credit Outstanding, shall not exceed at any one time outstanding the Revolving Credit Facility Commitment; provided, however, that (i) no Bank shall be required to make Revolving Credit Loans (or participate in the issuance of Letters of Credit) in an aggregate Dollar Equivalent principal amount outstanding at any one time exceeding such Bank's Commitment, (ii) no Base Rate Loan shall be made in an Optional Currency, and (iii) after giving effect to any Revolving Credit Loan the aggregate amount of Revolving Credit Loans and Letters of Credit Outstanding denominated in Optional Currencies shall not exceed the Dollar Equivalent amount of Seventy-Five Million and 00/100 Dollars ($75,000,000.00).

(b) Revolving Credit Note. The obligation of the Borrower to repay the unpaid principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans made to the Borrower by each Bank and to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof is evidenced in part by the Revolving Credit Notes of the Borrower. Each Revolving Credit Note shall be payable to the order of a Bank in a principal amount equal to such Bank's Commitment. The executed Revolving Credit Notes will be delivered by the Borrower to the Banks on the Closing Date.

(c) Making, Renewing or Converting of Revolving Credit Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and provided that the Borrower has satisfied all applicable conditions specified in Article IV hereof, the Banks shall make Revolving Credit Loans to the Borrower which, as selected by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.01(c), shall be Base Rate Loans or Libor Rate Loans and, with respect to Libor Rate Loans, shall be denominated in Dollars or an Optional Currency. In addition, subject to the terms and conditions set forth below, the Borrower shall have the opportunity (i) convert Base Rate Loans into Libor Rate Loans, (ii) convert Libor Rate Loans into Base Rate Loans or (iii) renew Libor Rate Loans as Libor Rate Loans for additional Interest Periods.

(i) Each Revolving Credit Loan that is made as or converted (from a Libor Rate Loan) into a Base Rate Loan shall be made or converted on such Business Day and in such amount as an Authorized Representative of the Borrower shall request by written or telephonic notice (confirmed promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, in writing) received by the Agent no later than 10:00 a.m. (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time) on the date of requested disbursement of or conversion into the requested Base Rate Loan. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, on each borrowing date, the Agent shall make the proceeds of the Base Rate Loan available to the Borrower at the Agent's Office in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m. (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time). Unless an Authorized Representative of the Borrower shall provide the Agent with the required written notice to convert a Base Rate Loan into a Libor Rate Loan on or prior to the third (3rd) Business Day prior to the date of requested conversion, such Base Rate Loan shall automatically continue as a Base Rate Loan.

(ii) Each Revolving Credit Loan that is made as, renewed as or converted (from a Base Rate Loan) into a Libor Rate Loan shall be made, renewed or converted, on such Business Day, in such Dollar Equivalent amount (expressed in the currency in which such Loan shall be funded and also as a Dollar Equivalent amount if such Loan shall be funded in an Optional Currency) greater than or equal to One Million and 00/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00); provided, however, that any

Dollar Equivalent amount in excess of One Million and 00/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00) may only be in Dollar Equivalent increments of Five Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($500,000.00), with such an Interest Period and in such currency as an Authorized Representative of the Borrower shall request by written or telephonic notice (confirmed promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, in writing) received by the Agent no later than 10:00 a.m. (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time) on the (a) third (3rd) Business Day prior to the requested date of disbursement of, renewal of or conversion into the requested Libor Rate Loan denominated in Dollars, and (b) fourth (4th) Business Day prior to the requested date of disbursement of, renewal of or conversion into the requested Libor Rate Loan denominated in an Optional Currency. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, on each borrowing date, the Agent shall make the proceeds of Libor Rate Loans available to the Borrower at the Agent's Office in immediately available funds, no later than 10:00 a.m. (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time). In addition, in the event that the Borrower desires to renew a Libor Rate Loan for an additional Interest Period, an Authorized Representative of the Borrower shall provide the Agent with written notice thereof on or prior to (a) with respect to Libor Rate Loans denominated in Dollars, the third (3rd) Business Day prior to the expiration of the applicable Interest Period, and (b) with respect to Libor Rate Loans denominated in an Optional Currency, the fourth (4th) Business Day prior to the expiration of the applicable Interest Period. In the event that an Authorized Representative of the Borrower fails to provide the Agent with the required written or telephonic notice (confirming promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, in writing) on or prior to the third (3rd) Business Day prior to the expiration of the applicable Interest Period for a Libor Rate Loan denominated in Dollars, the Borrower shall be deemed to have given written notice that such Loan shall be converted into a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the applicable Interest Period.

Each written notice of any Libor Rate Loan shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower and the Borrower shall indemnify the Agent and the Banks against any loss or expense incurred by the Banks as a result of any failure by the Borrower to consummate such transaction calculated as set forth in Section 2.12(c) hereof.

(iii) Each Bank hereby authorizes the Agent to make all Loans that are requested by the Borrower on the proposed date of disbursement as described above. Upon receipt of a request to make, renew or convert a Revolving Credit Loan hereunder, the Agent shall promptly advise each of the Banks of the proposed date of disbursement, renewal or conversion, the amount and type of each such Revolving Credit Loan, the applicable Interest Period, the applicable currency and the Bank's Commitment amount thereof. Each Bank shall remit its Commitment Percentage of the principal amount of each Revolving Credit Loan to the Agent at the Office of the Agent in the applicable currency and immediately available funds no later than 2:00 p.m. (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time) on the applicable date of disbursement. If the amount of such Bank's Commitment Percentage is not made available to the Agent by such Bank on the applicable borrowing date, the Agent shall not be required to fund such Bank's Commitment Percentage of the Revolving Credit Loans on the applicable borrowing date; provided, however, the Agent may elect in its sole discretion to fund such Bank's Commitment Percentage on the applicable borrowing date, and such Bank shall be subject to the repayment obligations set forth below.

(iv) The Agent may assume that each Bank has made or will make the proceeds of a Loan available to the Agent in the applicable currency unless the Agent shall have been notified by such Bank on or before the later of (a) the close of business on the Business Day preceding the applicable borrowing date with respect to the Loan, or (b) one (1) hour before the time on which the Agent actually funds the proceeds of such Loan to the Borrower (whether using its own funds pursuant to this subsection or using proceeds deposited with the Agent by the Banks and whether such funding occurs before or after the time on which the Banks are required to deposit the proceeds of such Loan with the

Agent). The Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption (but shall not be required to), make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount in the applicable currency. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Agent by such Bank in the applicable currency, the Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Bank (or, if such Bank fails to pay such amount, forthwith upon such demand from the Borrower) together with interest thereon, in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date such amount was made available to the Borrower and ending on the date the Agent recovers such amount, at a rate per annum equal to (y) with respect to Loans denominated in Dollars, (A) the Federal Funds Rate during the first three (3) days after such interest shall begin to accrue and (B) the Applicable Rate in respect of such Loan after the end of such three (3) day period, and (z) with respect to Loans denominated in an Optional Currency, the Overnight Rate.

(d) Maximum Principal Amount of Revolving Credit Loans and Letters of Credit Outstanding. The sum of (i) the aggregate Dollar Equivalent principal amount of all Revolving Credit Loans outstanding, plus, (ii) the sum of the aggregate principal amount of all Swing Line Loans outstanding, plus (iii) the aggregate Dollar Equivalent amount of Letters of Credit Outstanding shall not exceed the amount of the Revolving Credit Facility Commitment as the same may be increased from time to time pursuant to Section 2.21. The Borrower agrees that if at any time the sum of (i) the aggregate Dollar Equivalent principal amount of all Revolving Credit Loans outstanding, (ii) the aggregate principal amount of all Swing Line Loans outstanding plus (iii) the aggregate Dollar Equivalent amount of Letters of Credit Outstanding exceeds the amount of the Revolving Credit Facility Commitment (the "Excess Amount"), the Borrower shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, pay to the Agent (for the ratable benefit of the Banks) such Excess Amount. If not sooner paid, the entire principal balance of all outstanding Revolving Credit Loans, together with all unpaid accrued interest thereon, and all other sums and costs owed to the Agent and the Banks by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement, shall be immediately due and payable on the Expiry Date, without notice, presentment or demand of any kind.

2.02 [Reserved].

2.02.1 Swing Line Loan Facility.

(a) Swing Line Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions and relying upon the representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the Swing Line Lender may, in its sole and absolute discretion, make available to the Borrower at any time and from time to time during the period from the Closing Date through and including the Business Day immediately preceding the earlier of (i) the date upon which the aggregate unpaid principal balance of the Swing Line Loans become due and payable by demand or (ii) the Expiry Date, by making Swing Line Loans to the Borrower in Dollars in an aggregate principal amount not exceeding at any one time outstanding Twenty-Five Million and 00/100 Dollars ($25,000,000.00) (the "Swing Line Loan Facility"); provided, however, that the sum of (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Swing Line Lender's Swing Line Loans outstanding, plus (ii) the Dollar Equivalent principal amount of all Revolving Credit Loans outstanding of all the Banks, plus (iii) and the aggregate Dollar Equivalent amount of Letters of Credit Outstanding at any one time shall not exceed the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Facility Commitment as the same may be increased from time to time pursuant to Section 2.21. If not sooner paid, each Swing Line Loan, all unpaid interest thereon and all other sums and costs incurred hereunder with respect to such Swing Line Loan shall be immediately due and payable on the earlier of (i) thirty (30) Business Days from the date such Swing Line Loan was made, (ii) demand or (iii) the Expiry Date, without notice, presentment or demand (unless payable by demand). Within the limits of time and amount set forth in this Section 2.03.1, and subject to the provisions of this Agreement including, without limitation, the Swing Line Lender's right to demand repayment of the Swing Line Loans at any time with or without the occurrence of an Event of Default, Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow under this Section 2.02.1.

(b) Swing Line Note. The obligation of the Borrower to repay the unpaid principal amount of the Swing Line Loans made to the Borrower by the Swing Line Lender and to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof will be evidenced in part by the Swing Line Note of the Borrower. The executed Swing Line Note will be delivered by Borrower to the Swing Line Lender on the Closing Date.

(c) Making Swing Line Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and provided that the Borrower has satisfied all applicable conditions specified in Article IV hereof, the Swing Line Lender may, in its sole and absolute discretion, make Swing Line Loans to the Borrower on such Business Day and in such amount as an Authorized Representative of the Borrower shall request by written or telephonic notice (confirmed promptly, but in no event later than one (1) Business Day thereafter in writing) received by the Swing Line Lender no later than 10:00 a.m. (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time) on the date of requested disbursement of the Swing Line Loan. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, on each borrowing date, the Swing Line Lender shall make the proceeds of the Swing Line Loan available to the Borrower at the Swing Line Lender's Office in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m., Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time. The Swing Line Lender shall give notice to the Agent no later than 10:00 a.m. (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time) of the next Business Day or such other time as the Agent and the Swing Line Lender may agree of the amount of each such Swing Line Loan.

(d) Refunded Swing Line Loans. With respect to any Swing Line Loans, the Swing Line Lender may, at any time in its sole and absolute discretion, deliver to the Agent (with a copy to the Borrower), no later than 10:00 a.m. (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time) on the first (1st) Business Day immediately preceding the proposed date of disbursement, a notice (which shall be deemed to be a notice of borrowing given by an Authorized Representative) requesting the Banks to make Revolving Credit Loans that are Base Rate Loans on such date in an amount equal such portion of the Swing Line Loans outstanding as the Swing Line Lender may request in its sole and absolute discretion plus, if the Swing Line Lender so requests, accrued interest thereon, (the "Refunded Swing Line Loans"). Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) the proceeds of such Revolving Credit Loans made by Banks other than the Swing Line Lender shall be immediately delivered by the Agent to the Swing Line Lender (and not to the Borrower) and applied to repay a corresponding portion of the Refunded Swing Line Loans and (ii) on the day such Revolving Credit Loans are made, the Swing Line Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Refunded Swing Line Loans shall be deemed to be paid with the proceeds of a Revolving Credit Loan made by the Swing Line Lender, and such portion of the Swing Line Loans deemed to be so paid shall no longer be outstanding as Swing Line Loans and shall no longer be due under the Swing Line Note of the Swing Line Lender but shall instead constitute part of the Swing Line Lender's outstanding Revolving Credit Loans and shall be due under the Revolving Credit Note of the Swing Line Lender.

Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Bank's obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans for the purpose of repaying any Refunded Swing Line Loans pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (a) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Bank may have against the Swing Line Lender, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (b) the occurrence or continuation of an Event of Default or a Potential Default; (c) any Material Adverse Change; (d) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by the Borrower; or (e) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided that

such obligations of each Bank are subject to the condition that (X) the Swing Line Lender believed in good faith that all conditions under Article IV to the making of the applicable Swing Line Loans were satisfied at the time such Swing Line Loans were made or (Y) the satisfaction of any such condition not satisfied had been waived in writing by the Banks prior to or at the time such Swing Line Loans were made; provided, further, that no Bank shall be obligated in any event to make Revolving Credit Loans in excess of its Commitment less its Pro Rata Share of the Dollar Equivalent amount of Letters of Credit Outstanding.

2.03 Interest Rates.

(a) Interest on the Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Credit Loans shall be, at the option of the Borrower as selected pursuant to Section 2.01(c) hereof, (x) Base Rate Loans which shall bear interest for each day at the rates set forth below or (y) Libor Rate Loans which shall bear interest during each applicable Interest Period at the rates set forth below:

(i) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, on the Closing Date and through the day immediately preceding the first (1st) Incentive Pricing Effective Date, (x) Revolving Credit Loans which are Base Rate Loans shall bear interest for each day at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the applicable margin corresponding to Tier II as set forth below and (y) Revolving Credit Loans which are Libor Rate Loans shall bear interest during each applicable interest period at a rate per annum equal to the Libor Rate plus the Applicable Libor Margin corresponding to Tier II set forth below;

(ii) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, during each Fiscal Quarter, in accordance with Section 5.01(c) hereof, the Borrower shall submit to the Agent and the Banks a quarterly compliance certificate (the Fiscal Quarter in which such compliance certificate is required to be received by the Agent and the Banks is the "Reporting Quarter") as of the last day of the Fiscal Quarter immediately preceding such Reporting Quarter (with respect to any Reporting Quarter, the Fiscal Quarter immediately preceding such Reporting Quarter is the "Measurement Quarter"). Upon receipt of such quarterly compliance certificate by the Agent and the Banks in accordance with Section 5.01(c), the calculation of the Borrower's Leverage Ratio shall be set forth in such compliance certificate as of the last day of the Measurement Quarter ending March 31, 2011 and as of the last day of each Measurement Quarter thereafter. From the first (1st) day of the first (1st) full calendar month following the Agent's and the Banks' receipt of such quarterly compliance certificate (the "Incentive Pricing Effective Date") until the next Incentive Pricing Effective Date, (x) Revolving Credit Loans which are Base Rate Loans shall bear interest for each day at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the applicable margin determined by reference to the Borrower's Leverage Ratio as set forth below (the "Applicable Base Rate Margin") and (y) Revolving Credit Loans which are Libor Rate Loans shall bear interest during each applicable Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to the Libor Rate plus the applicable margin determined by reference to the Borrower's Leverage Ratio as set forth below (the "Applicable Libor Margin"):

Tier	Leverage Ratio	Applicable Libor Margin	Applicable Base Rate Margin	Applicable L/C Fee Percentage	Applicable Commitment Fee Percentage
I	< 1.00	1.00%	0.00%	1.00%	0.20%
II	³1.00 < 1.75	1.25%	0.25%	1.25%	0.25%
III	³ 1.75	1.50%	0.50%	1.50%	0.30%

(iii) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, in the event that the Borrower fails to timely deliver the compliance certificate required by Section 5.01(c) hereof, the Applicable Margin shall be the amount corresponding to Tier III until the delivery of such compliance certificate.

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Swing Line Loans shall bear interest for each day at the Swing Line Rate.

(b) Calculation of Interest and Fees; Adjustment to Base Rate and Swing Line Rate. Interest on the Loans, unpaid fees and other sums payable hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty (360) days and paid for the actual number of days elapsed; provided that, for Revolving Credit Loans made in an Optional Currency for which a three hundred sixty five (365) or three hundred sixty six (366) day basis, as the case may be, is the only market practice available to the Agent, such rate shall be calculated on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty five (365) or three hundred sixty six (366) days, as the case may be, for the actual days elapsed. In the event of any change in the Base Rate or the Swing Line Rate, the rate of interest applicable to each Base Rate Loan or the Swing Line Loans shall be adjusted to immediately correspond with such change; provided, however, that any interest rate charged hereunder shall not exceed the Maximum Rate.

(c) Interest After Maturity or Default; Interest Laws. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, (i) the unpaid principal amount of the Loans or any portion thereof, accrued interest thereon, any fees or any other sums payable hereunder shall thereafter until paid in full bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Rate plus two percent (2.00%); (ii) each Libor Rate Loan denominated in Dollars shall automatically convert into a Base Rate Loan at the end of the applicable Interest Period; (iii) each Libor Rate Loan denominated in an Optional Currency shall automatically convert into a Base Rate Loan at the time of such Event of Default and the Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the ratable account of the Banks such additional amounts as are required pursuant to and in accordance with Sections 2.12(c) and 2.18; and (iv) no Loans may be made in an Optional Currency and no Loans may be made as, renewed as or converted into a Libor Rate Loan. Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Borrower shall not be required to pay, and the Banks shall not be permitted to collect, any amount of interest in excess of the maximum amount of interest permitted by applicable Law ("Excess Interest"). If any Excess Interest is provided for or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been provided for in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, then, in such event: (1) the provisions of this subsection shall govern and control; (2) the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any Excess Interest; (3) any Excess Interest that any Bank may have received hereunder shall be, at the Majority Banks' option, (a) applied as a credit against the outstanding principal balance of the Indebtedness evidenced by the Notes or accrued and unpaid interest thereon (not to exceed the maximum amount permitted by Law), (b) refunded to the payor thereof, or (c) any combination of the foregoing; (4) the interest rate(s) provided for herein shall be automatically reduced to the maximum lawful rate allowed from time to time under applicable Law (the "Maximum Rate"), and this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to have been and shall be, reformed and modified to reflect such reduction; and (5) the Borrower shall have no action against the Agent or the Banks for any damages arising out of the payment or collection of any Excess Interest.

2.04 Interest Payments.

The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the ratable account of the Banks interest on the aggregate outstanding balance of the Loans which are Base Rate Loans in arrears, on January 31, 2011 and on the last day of each April, July, October and January thereafter through and including the Expiry Date. The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the ratable account of the Banks interest on the unpaid principal

balance of the Loans that are Libor Rate Loans on the earlier of (i) the last day of the applicable Interest Period for such Loan or (ii) for such Loans with an applicable Interest Period exceeding three (3) Months, on each and every three (3) Month anniversary of each such Loan during the period from the Closing Date to and including the Expiry Date. After maturity of any part of the Loans (whether upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, by acceleration or otherwise), interest on such part of the Loans shall be immediately due and payable without notice, presentment, or demand of any kind. Interest on the principal amount of each Loan made in an Optional Currency shall be paid by the Borrower in such Optional Currency. The Borrower shall pay to the Swing Line Lender interest on the unpaid principal balance of the aggregate outstanding balance of the Swing Line Loans in arrears, on January 31, 2011 and on the last day of each April, July, October and January thereafter through and including the Expiry Date.

2.05 Fees.

The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the ratable account of the Banks:

(i) A commitment fee in Dollars on the unused portion of the amount of the Revolving Credit Facility Commitment during the period from the date of this Agreement to the Expiry Date, payable quarterly in arrears beginning on January 1, 2011 and continuing on the first (1st) day of each April, July, October and January thereafter and on the Expiry Date. Such fee shall be calculated daily, and shall equal the amount by which the amount of the Revolving Credit Facility Commitment has exceeded the closing principal balance of the sum of the outstanding Dollar Equivalent principal balance of the Revolving Credit Loans (for purposes of this computation the Swing Line Lender's Swing Line Loans shall be deemed to be borrowed amounts under its Revolving Credit Commitment) and the Dollar Equivalent amount of Letters of Credit Outstanding on each day, multiplied by the applicable percentage with respect to commitment fees for such day determined by reference to the Borrower's Leverage Ratio as set forth in set forth in Section 2.03(a)(ii) hereof (the "Applicable Commitment Fee Percentage"); provided, however, that any commitment fee accrued with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility Commitment of an Impacted Bank during the period prior to the time such Bank became an Impacted Bank and unpaid at such time shall not be payable by the Borrower so long as such Bank shall be an Impacted Bank except to the extent that such commitment fee shall otherwise have been due and payable by the Borrower prior to such time; and provided further that no commitment fee shall accrue with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility Commitment of an Impacted Bank so long as such Bank shall be an Impacted Bank; and

(ii) The Letter of Credit Commission pursuant to Section 2.07 hereof.

2.06 Agreement to Issue Letters of Credit.

From time to time during the period from the Closing Date to the fifteenth (15th) day preceding the Expiry Date, subject to the further terms and conditions hereof, including those required in connection with the making of Revolving Credit Loans, the applicable Issuing Bank(s) shall issue Standby Letters of Credit or Commercial Letters of Credit (collectively the "Letters of Credit") for the account of the Borrower in an Dollar Equivalent amount not to exceed Twenty Five Million and 00/100 Dollars ($25,000,000.00) in the aggregate as a subfacility of the Revolving Credit Facility Commitment; provided, however, that on any date on which the Borrower requests a Letter of Credit, and after giving effect to the Letter of Credit Face Amount of such Letter of Credit, the sum of (i) the Dollar Equivalent amount of all Revolving Credit Loans outstanding, plus (ii) all Swing Line Loans outstanding, plus (iii) the Dollar Equivalent amount of all Letters of Credit Outstanding shall not exceed the Revolving Credit Facility Commitment. All such Letters of Credit shall be issued by the applicable Issuing Bank in accordance with its then current practice relating to the issuance of letters of credit including, but not limited to, the execution and

delivery to such Issuing Bank of applications and agreements required by such Issuing Bank and the payment by the Borrower of all applicable fees with respect thereto. As of the date hereof, those Letters of Credit set forth on Schedule 2.06 hereof (collectively, the "Existing Letters of Credit"), which were issued under the Prior Loan Agreement and are outstanding on the date hereof, will be deemed to be Letters of Credit issued and outstanding hereunder.

Each request for a Letter of Credit shall be delivered to the applicable Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Agent) no later than 10:00 a.m. (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time) on the second (2nd) Business Day, or such shorter period as may be agreed to by such Issuing Bank, prior to the proposed date of issuance. Each such request shall be in a form acceptable to the applicable Issuing Bank and specify the Letter of Credit Face Amount thereof, the applicable currency, the account party, the beneficiary, the intended date of issuance, the expiry date thereof, and the nature of the transaction to be supported thereby. Promptly after receipt of any request for a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank shall confirm with the Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Agent has received a copy of such request for a Letter of Credit and if not, such Issuing Bank will provide the Agent with a copy thereof. Unless the Issuing Bank has received notice from any Bank, the Agent or any Loan Party, at least one (1) day prior to the requested date of issuance of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions in Article IV is not satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof and in reliance on the agreements of the other Banks set forth in this Section 2.06, the Issuing Bank or any of the Issuing Bank's Affiliates will issue a Letter of Credit. All such Letters of Credit shall be issued by the applicable Issuing Bank in accordance with its then current practice relating to the issuance of Letters of Credit including, but not limited to, the execution and delivery to such Issuing Bank of applications and agreements required by such Issuing Bank and the payment by the Borrower of all applicable fees required by Section 2.07 hereof. Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Bank shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the applicable Issuing Bank a participation in such Letter of Credit and each drawing thereunder in an amount equal to such Bank's Pro Rata Share of the Letter of Credit Face Amount of such Letter of Credit. The applicable Issuing Bank shall promptly, but in any event not later than the next Business Day, provide to each Bank notice of each such request for a Letter of Credit by the Borrower.

Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue any Letter of Credit, if any Bank is at such time an Impacted Bank hereunder, unless the Issuing Bank has entered into satisfactory arrangements with the Borrower or such Impacted Bank to eliminate the Issuing Bank's risk with respect to such Impacted Bank (it being understood that the Issuing Bank would consider the Borrower or the Impacted Bank providing cash collateral to the Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing Bank, to secure the Impacted Bank's Pro Rata Share of the Letter of Credit to be a satisfactory arrangement).

2.07 Letter of Credit Fees.

The Borrower shall pay to the applicable Issuing Bank for its own account in Dollars (a) a fronting fee for each Letter of Credit issued hereunder, such fee shall be equal to one-eighth of one percent (0.125%) of the daily average Dollar Equivalent amount of Letters of Credit Outstanding during the preceding calendar quarter, payable quarterly in arrears beginning on January 1, 2011 and continuing on the first (1st) day of each April, July, October and January thereafter and on the Expiry Date, (b) such Issuing Bank's standard amendment fees for each applicable Letter of Credit issued hereunder by such Issuing Bank, such fees to be paid on the date of the amendment of such Letter of Credit and (c) any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses and costs incurred by such Issuing Bank for the issuance of any applicable Letter of Credit issued hereunder by such Issuing Bank, such fees to be paid on the day of issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Borrower shall also pay to the Agent for the ratable account of the Banks a fee (the "Letter of Credit Commission"), calculated daily and equal to the Dollar Equivalent amount of the Letters of Credit Outstanding on each day multiplied by the applicable percentage for such day determined by reference to the Borrower's Leverage Ratio as set forth in Section 2.03(a)(ii) hereof (the "Applicable L/C Fee Percentage"), such fee to be paid quarterly in arrears beginning on January 1, 2011 and continuing on the first (1st) day of

each April, July, October, and January thereafter and on the Expiry Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Letter of Credit Commission shall be increased by two percent (2.00%) per annum.

2.08 Payments Under Letters of Credit.

Upon a draw under any Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall immediately, but in any event not later than the end of such Business Day, reimburse the Issuing Bank for such drawing under a Letter of Credit by paying to the Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank an amount equal to the amount so paid by the Issuing Bank with respect to such drawing under the applicable Letter of Credit. If (i) the Borrower shall not have reimbursed the Issuing Bank for such drawing under such Letter of Credit by the end of such Business Day, (ii) the Issuing Bank and/or the Agent, on behalf of the Issuing Bank, must for any reason return or disgorge such reimbursement, or (iii) the Borrower is required to make a payment under Section 7.02(a)(ii) hereof and fails to make such payment, then the amount of each unreimbursed drawing under such Letter of Credit and payment required to be made under Section 7.02(a)(ii) hereof shall automatically be converted into a Revolving Credit Loan which shall be a Base Rate Loan made on the date of such drawing for all purposes of this Agreement. The Borrower’s obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank with respect to each drawing under a Letter of Credit shall be absolute and unconditional.

2.09 Period of Issuance and Term of Letters of Credit.

Letters of Credit shall only be issued by the Issuing Banks for the account of the Borrower for such terms which expire at least fifteen (15) days prior to the Expiry Date.

2.10 Booking of Libor Rate Loans.

Each Bank may make, carry or transfer Libor Rate Loans at, to or for the account of, any of its branch offices or the office of an affiliate of such Bank; provided, however, that no such action shall result in increased liability or cost to the Borrower, including any increased liability or cost pursuant to Section 2.12 or 2.13 hereof.

2.11 Assumptions Concerning Funding of Libor Rate Loans.

Calculation of all amounts payable to each Bank under Section 2.12(c) shall be made as though each Bank had actually funded its relevant Libor Rate Loan through the purchase of a Libor deposit bearing interest at the Libor Rate in an amount equal to the amount of that Libor Rate Loan and having maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period and through the transfer of such Libor deposit from an offshore office to a domestic office in the United States of America; provided, however, that each Bank may fund each of its Libor Rate Loans in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumption shall be utilized only for the calculation of amounts payable under Section 2.12(c).

2.12 Additional Costs.

(a) If, due to either (i) the introduction of, or any change in, or in the interpretation of, any Law or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Official Body (whether or not having the force of Law), there shall be any increase in the cost to, or reduction in income receivable by, a Bank of making, funding or maintaining Loans (or commitments to make the Loans), then the Borrower shall from time to time, upon demand by such Bank made within a reasonable time after such Bank's determination thereof, pay to the Agent for the account of such Bank additional amounts sufficient to reimburse such Bank for any such additional costs or reduction in income. All such additional amounts shall be determined by such Bank in good faith using appropriate attribution and averaging methods ordinarily employed by such Bank. A certificate of such Bank

submitted to the Borrower in good faith as to the amount of such additional costs shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. Within ten (10) Business Days after the Agent or such Bank notifies the Borrower in writing of any such additional costs pursuant to this Section 2.12(a), the Borrower may (A) repay in full all Loans of any types or currencies so affected then outstanding, together with interest accrued thereon to the date of such repayment, or (B) convert all Loans of any types or currencies so affected then outstanding into Loans of any other type or currency not so affected upon not less than four (4) Business Days’ notice to the Agent. If any such repayment or conversion of any Libor Rate Loan occurs on any day other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period for such Loan, the Borrower also shall pay to the Agent for the ratable account of the Banks such additional amounts as set forth in Section 2.12(c).

(b) If either (i) the introduction of, or any change in, or in the interpretation of, any Law or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Official Body (whether or not having the force of Law), affects the amount of capital required to be maintained by any Bank or any corporation controlling any Bank and such Bank determines in good faith that the amount of such capital is increased by or based upon the existence of the Loans (or commitment to make the Loans), then, within ten (10) Business Days of demand by such Bank, the Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of such Bank from time to time as specified by such Bank, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Bank in the light of such circumstances, to the extent that such Bank determines in good faith such increase in capital to be allocable to the existence of such Bank's Loans (or commitment to make the Loans). Any such demand by a Bank must be made within a reasonable time after such Bank's determination as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence. A certificate of such Bank in good faith submitted to the Borrower as to such amounts shall be presumptive evidence of such amounts. Within ten (10) Business Days after the Agent or such Bank notifies the Borrower in writing of any such additional costs pursuant to this Section 2.12(b), the Borrower may (A) repay in full all Loans of any types or currencies so affected then outstanding, together with interest accrued thereon to the date of such prepayment, or (B) convert all Loans of any types or currencies so affected then outstanding into Loans of any other type or currency not so affected upon not less than four (4) Business Days’ notice to such Bank. If any such prepayment or conversion of any Libor Rate Loan occurs on any day other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period for such Loan, the Borrower also shall pay to the Agent for the ratable account of the Banks such additional amounts as set forth in Section 2.12(c).

(c) If the Borrower shall repay or convert any Libor Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period for such Loan (whether such repayment or conversion is (i) permitted by this Section 2.12 or Section 2.13, (ii) permitted as a result of the failure of the Borrower to consummate a transaction after providing notice as set forth in Section 2.01(c)(ii), (iii) otherwise permitted by a Bank, or (iv) otherwise required under the terms of this Agreement), the Borrower shall pay (within ten (10) Business Days after written demand) to the Agent for the ratable benefit of the Banks such additional amounts reasonably determined by the Banks in good faith to be sufficient to indemnify the Banks against any loss, cost, or expense incurred by the Banks as a result of such prepayment or conversion including, without limitation, any loss (including loss of anticipated profits), costs or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by the Banks to fund such Loan, and a certificate as to the amount of any such loss, cost or expense submitted by any Bank to the Borrower in good faith shall be presumptive evidence of such amount.

2.13 Illegality; Impracticability.

Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Agreement, if: (a) it is unlawful, or any central bank or other Official Body shall determine that it is unlawful, for the Agent or any Bank to perform its obligations hereunder to make, renew, or convert Loans hereunder; or (b) on any date on which a Libor Rate would otherwise be set, any Bank shall have in good faith determined (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (i) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining a Libor Rate, (ii) a contingency has occurred which materially and adversely affects the

interbank markets, or (iii) the effective cost to such Bank of funding a proposed Libor Rate Loan exceeds the Libor Rate then (y) upon notice thereof by the Agent or such Bank to the Borrower, the obligation of such Bank to make or renew a Loan of a type or currency so affected or to convert any type of Loan or any Loan denominated in an Optional Currency into a Loan of a type or currency so affected shall terminate and the Banks shall thereafter be obligated to make Base Rate Loans whenever any written notice requests any type of Loans or any Loan denominated in an Optional Currency so affected and (z) upon written demand therefor by such Bank to the Borrower, the Borrower shall (i) forthwith prepay in full all Loans of the type or currency so affected then outstanding, together with interest accrued thereon or (ii) request that such Bank, upon five (5) Business Days' notice, convert all Loans of the type or currency so affected then outstanding into Loans of a type or currency not so affected. If any such prepayment or conversion of any Libor Rate Loan occurs on any day other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period for such Loan, the Borrower also shall pay to the Agent for the ratable benefit of the Banks such additional amounts as set forth in Section 2.12(c).

2.14 Payments.

All payments to be made with respect to principal, interest, fees or other amounts due from the Borrower under this Agreement or under the Notes are payable at 12:00 noon (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time), on the day when due, without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived, and an action for the payments will accrue immediately. All such payments must be made to the Agent at its Office in U.S. Dollars except that payments of principal or interest shall be made in the currency in which such Loan was made and in funds immediately available at such Office, without setoff, counterclaim or other deduction of any nature. The Agent may in its discretion deduct such payments from the Borrower's demand or deposit accounts with the Agent if not paid within five (5) Business Days after the due date. All such payments shall be applied at the option of the Agent and the Banks to accrued and unpaid interest, outstanding principal and other sums due under this Agreement in such order as the Agent and the Banks, in their sole discretion, shall elect. All such payments shall be made absolutely net of, without deduction or offset, and altogether free and clear of any and all present and future taxes, levies, deductions, charges, and withholdings and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding income and franchise taxes imposed on the Banks under the Laws of the United States or any state or political subdivision thereof. If the Borrower is compelled by Law to deduct any such taxes or to make any such other deductions, charges, or withholdings (collectively, the "Required Deductions"), the Borrower will pay to the Agent for the ratable benefit of the Banks an additional amount equal to the sum of (i) the aggregate amount of all Required Deductions and (ii) the aggregate amount of United States federal or state income taxes required to be paid by the Banks in respect of such Required Deductions.

The Agent shall record in the Loan Account the principal amount of the Loans owing to each Bank from time to time. The Loan Account shall constitute presumptive evidence of the accuracy of the information contained therein (including the Equivalent Amounts of the applicable currencies where such computations are required). Any failure by the Agent to make any such notation or record shall not affect the obligations of the Borrower to the Banks with respect to the Loans.

2.17 Utilization of Commitments in Optional Currencies.

(a) Periodic Computations of Dollar Equivalent Amounts of Revolving Credit Loans and Letters of Credit Outstanding. The Agent will determine the Dollar Equivalent amount of (i) proposed Revolving Credit Loans to be denominated in an Optional Currency as of the requested borrowing date, (ii) Letters of Credit to be denominated in an Optional Currency as of the intended date of issuance, (iii) Letters of Credit Outstanding denominated in an Optional Currency as of the last Business Day of each month, and (iv) outstanding Revolving Credit Loans denominated in an Optional Currency as of the end of each Interest Period (each such date under clauses (i) through (iv), a "Computation Date").

(b) Notices From Banks that Optional Currencies are Unavailable to Fund New Revolving Credit Loans. The Banks shall be under no obligation to make the Revolving Credit Loans requested by the Borrower which are denominated in an Optional Currency if any Bank notifies the Agent by 5:00 p.m. (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time), four (4) Business Days prior to the borrowing date for such Loans that such Bank cannot provide its share of such Loans in such Optional Currency due to the introduction of, or any change in, any applicable Law or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Official Body charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by such Bank (or any of its lending offices) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of Law) of any such Official Body which would make it unlawful or impossible for such Bank (or any of its lending offices) to honor its obligations hereunder to make a Revolving Credit Loan in an Optional Currency. In the event the Agent timely receives a notice from a Bank pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Agent will notify the Borrower no later than 12:00 noon (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time), three (3) Business Days prior to the borrowing date for such Loans that the Optional Currency is not then available for such Loans, and the Agent shall promptly thereafter notify the Banks of the same. If the Borrower receives a notice described in the preceding sentence, the Borrower may, by notice to the Agent not later than 5:00 p.m. (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time), three (3) Business Days prior to the borrowing date for such Loans, withdraw the loan request for such Loans. If the Borrower withdraws such loan request, the Agent will promptly notify each Bank of the same and the Banks shall not make such Loans. If the Borrower does not withdraw such loan request before such time, (i) the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested that the Loans referred to in its loan request shall be made in Dollars in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent amount of such Loans and shall bear interest under the Base Rate, and (ii) the Agent shall promptly deliver a notice to each Bank stating: (A) that such Loans shall be made in Dollars and shall bear interest under the Base Rate, (B) the aggregate amount of such Loans, and (C) such Bank's Pro Rata Share of such Loans.

(c) Notices From Banks That Optional Currencies Are Unavailable to Fund Renewals of Libor Rate Loans Denominated in an Optional Currency. If the Borrower delivers a loan request requesting that the Banks renew any Libor Rate Loan which is denominated in an Optional Currency, the Banks shall be under no obligation to renew such Libor Rate Loan if any Bank delivers to the Agent a notice by 5:00 p.m. (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time), four (4) Business Days prior to effective date of such renewal that such Bank cannot continue to provide Loans in such Optional Currency due to the introduction of, or any change in, any applicable Law or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Official Body charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by such Bank (or any of its lending offices) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of Law) of any such Official Body which would make it unlawful or impossible for such Bank (or any of its lending offices) to honor its obligations hereunder to make a Loan in an Optional Currency. In the event the Agent timely receives a notice from a Bank pursuant to the preceding

sentence, the Agent will notify the Borrower no later than 12:00 noon (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time), three (3) Business Days prior to the renewal date that the renewal of such Loans in such Optional Currency is not then available, and the Agent shall promptly thereafter notify the Banks of the same. If the Agent shall have so notified the Borrower that any such continuation of Optional Currency Loans is not then available, any notice of renewal with respect thereto shall be deemed withdrawn, and such Optional Currency Loans shall be redenominated into Base Rate Loans with effect from the last day of the Interest Period with respect to any such Optional Currency Loans. The Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Banks of any such redenomination, and in such notice, the Agent will state the aggregate Dollar Equivalent amount of the redenominated Optional Currency Loans as of the Computation Date with respect thereto and such Bank's Pro Rate Share thereof.

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

2.18 Currency Repayments.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the entire amount of principal of and interest on any Revolving Credit Loan made or Letter of Credit issued in an Optional Currency shall be repaid in the same Optional Currency in which such Loan was made or Letter of Credit was issued, provided, however, that (a) if it is impossible or illegal for Borrower to effect payment of a Loan or reimbursement of a Letter of Credit in the Optional Currency in which such Loan was made or Letter of Credit was issued, (b) if Borrower defaults in its obligations to do so, or (c) if a Libor Rate Loan denominated in an Optional Currency automatically converts to a Base Rate Loan pursuant to Section 2.03(c) hereof, the Majority Banks may at their option (and, in the case of (a) above shall) permit such payment to be made (i) at and to a different location, subsidiary, affiliate or correspondent of Agent, or (ii) in the Equivalent Amount of Dollars or (iii) in an Equivalent Amount of such other currency (freely convertible into Dollars) as the Majority Banks may solely at their option designate. Upon any events described in (i) through (iii) of the preceding sentence, Borrower shall make such payment and Borrower agrees to hold each Bank harmless from and against any loss incurred by any Bank arising from the cost to such Bank of any premium, any costs of exchange, the cost of hedging and covering the Optional Currency in which such Loan was originally made or Letter of Credit was originally issued, and from any change in the value of Dollars, or such other currency, in relation to the Optional Currency that was due and owing. Such loss shall be calculated for the period commencing with the first day of the Interest Period for such Loan and continuing through the date of payment thereof.

2.19 Optional Currency Amounts.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Agent may, with respect to notices by Borrower for Revolving Credit Loans or Letters of Credit in an Optional Currency or voluntary prepayments of less than the full amount of a Loan denominated in an Optional Currency, engage in reasonable rounding (in accordance with the Agent's usual and customary Optional Currency policies) of the Optional Currency amounts requested to be loaned or repaid; and, in such event, Agent shall promptly notify Borrower and the Banks of such rounded amounts and Borrower's request or notice shall thereby be deemed to reflect such rounded amounts.

2.20 Mandatory Prepayments for Currency Fluctuations.

If on any Computation Date the sum of the aggregate Dollar Equivalent principal amount of all Revolving Credit Loans outstanding and the aggregate Dollar Equivalent amount of Letters of Credit Outstanding is equal to or greater than one hundred percent (100%) of the Revolving Credit Facility Commitment as a result of a change in exchange rates between one (1) or more Optional Currencies and Dollars, then the Agent shall notify the Borrower of the same. The Borrower shall pay or prepay Revolving Credit Loans (subject to Borrower's indemnity obligations under Section 2.12) within one (1) Business Day after receiving such notice such that the Dollar Equivalent principal amount of all Revolving Credit Loans outstanding and the aggregate Dollar Equivalent amount of Letters of Credit Outstanding shall not exceed the Revolving Credit Facility Commitment after giving effect to such payments or prepayments.

2.21 Increase of Revolving Credit Facility Commitment.

If at any time after the Closing Date, and so long as no Event of Default or Potential Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower desires to increase the Revolving Credit Facility Commitment, (each, an "Additional Increase") the Borrower shall notify the Agent in writing, who will promptly notify each Bank thereof, provided that any such Additional Increase shall be in a minimum of Ten Million and 00/100 Dollars ($10,000,000.00) and the aggregate of all such Additional Increases shall not exceed One Hundred Million and 00/100 Dollars ($100,000,000.00). The existing Banks shall have the right at any time within fourteen (14) days following such notice to increase their respective Commitment by providing written notice of the same to the Agent so as to provide such additional Commitment pro-rata in accordance with such Bank's Pro Rata Share, and any portion of such Additional Increase which is not provided by any such existing Bank shall be available to the other existing Banks; provided, that if more than one existing Bank desires to increase its Commitment in respect of the portion of such Additional Increase not provided by an existing Bank, such participating Banks shall provide such portion of the additional Commitments on a pro rata basis in accordance with the proportion that their Pro Rata Share bears to each other, and thereafter, to the extent not provided by existing Banks, to any additional lending institution or institutions proposed by the Borrower and which is approved by the Agent (which approval will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and which becomes a party to this Agreement pursuant to documentation reasonably acceptable to the Agent and prepared at the Borrower's expense, which documentation may be executed by the Borrower and the Agent (as agent for the Banks) without further consent or action of the Banks, such consent hereby deemed to be irrevocably given to the Agent by the Banks; provided, however, that the Borrower shall have the right to have the entire amount of each Additional Increase provided by such approved additional lending institution or institutions if all the existing Banks decline to increase their Commitments to accommodate any such Additional Increase. In the event of any such Additional Increase in the aggregate Commitments and in the Commitment of any Bank effected pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.21, new Notes shall, to the extent deemed reasonably necessary or appropriate by the Agent, be executed and delivered by the Borrower, and the affected Banks shall promptly surrender and cancel the existing Notes; and the Borrower shall execute and deliver such additional documentation setting forth the new Commitments and Pro Rata Shares as the Agent shall reasonably request

(which documentation may be executed by the Borrower and the Agent (as agent for the Banks) without further consent or action of the Banks, such consent herein is deemed to be irrevocably given to the Agent by the Banks).

If the unpaid principal amount of the Notes, interest accrued on the unpaid principal amount thereof or other amount owing by any Loan Party under this Agreement, the Notes or the other Loan Documents shall have become due and payable (on demand, at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), each of the Banks, any assignee of the Banks and the holder of any participation in any Loan will each have the right, in addition to all other rights and remedies available to it, without notice to such Loan Party, to set-off against and to appropriate and apply to such due and payable amounts any Indebtedness owing to, and any other funds held in any manner for the account of, such Loan Party by such Bank, by such assignee or by such holder including, without limitation, all funds in all deposit accounts (whether time or demand, general or special, provisionally credited or finally credited, or otherwise) now or in the future maintained by such Loan Party with such Bank, assignee or holder. The Borrower consents to and confirms the foregoing arrangements and confirms the Banks' rights, such assignee's rights and such holder's rights of banker's lien and set-off. Nothing in this Agreement will be deemed a waiver or prohibition of or restriction on the Banks' rights, such assignee's rights or any such holder's rights of banker's lien or set-off.

7.04 Equalization.

Each Bank agrees with the other Banks that if, at any time, it shall obtain any Advantage over the other Banks or any thereof in respect of the Indebtedness of the Borrower to the Banks, it shall purchase from the other Banks, for cash and at par, such additional participation in the Indebtedness of the Borrower to the Banks as shall be necessary to nullify the Advantage. If any such Advantage resulting in the purchase of an additional participation as aforesaid shall be recovered in whole or in part from the Bank receiving the Advantage, each such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored (but without interest unless the Bank receiving the Advantage is required to pay interest on the Advantage to the Person recovering the Advantage from such Bank) ratably to the extent of the recovery. Each Bank agrees with the other Banks that if it, at any time, shall receive any payment for or on behalf of the Borrower on any Indebtedness of the Borrower to that Bank by reason of offset of any deposit or other Indebtedness of the Borrower to the Banks, it will apply such payment first to any and all Indebtedness of the Borrower to the Banks pursuant to this Agreement (including, without limitation, any participation purchased or to be purchased pursuant to this Section or any other Section of this Agreement). The Borrower agrees that any Bank so purchasing a participation from the other Banks or any thereof pursuant to this Section may exercise all of its rights of payment (including the right of setoff) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Bank were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

7.05 Other Remedies.

The remedies in this Article VII are in addition to, not in limitation of, any other right, power, privilege or remedy, either at Law, in equity or otherwise, to which the Banks may be entitled.

The Agent shall exercise the rights under this Article VII and all other collection efforts on behalf of the Banks and no Bank shall act independently with respect thereto, except as otherwise specifically set forth in this Agreement.

The Banks authorize Citizens and PNC and Citizens and PNC hereby agree to act as agent and syndication agent, respectively, for the Banks in respect of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. Each Bank hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Agent and the Syndication Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers hereunder as are expressly delegated to the Agent or the Syndication Agent, as the case may be, by the terms of this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; provided that no duties or responsibilities not expressly assumed herein or therein shall be implied to have been assumed by the Agent or the Syndication Agent. The relationship between the Agent and the Banks and the relationship between the Syndication Agent and the Banks are and shall be that of agent and principal only, and nothing contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents shall be construed to constitute the Agent or the Syndication Agent as a trustee for any Bank. Neither the Agent, the Syndication Agent nor any of their respective shareholders, directors, officers, attorneys or employees nor any other Person assisting them in their duties nor any agent or employee thereof, shall (a) be liable for any waiver, consent or approval given or action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents or in connection herewith or therewith or be responsible for the consequences of any oversight or error of judgment whatsoever, or (b) be liable to the Borrower for consequential damages resulting from any breach of contract, tort or other wrong in connection with the negotiation, documentation, administration or collection of the Loans or any of the Loan Documents, except with respect to (a) and (b) hereof, to the extent of its or their willful misconduct or gross negligence as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.

8.02 Employees and Agents; Syndication Agent.

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 Agreement and the other Loan Documents and shall not be liable for action taken or suffered in good faith by it in accordance with the opinion of such counsel. The Agent may utilize the services of such Persons as the Agent in its sole discretion may determine, and all reasonable fees and expenses of any such Persons shall be paid by the Borrower and if not paid by the Borrower shall be paid by the Banks based upon their respective Commitment Percentages. Notwithstanding anything that may be contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the Syndication Agent shall have no duties or obligations whatsoever as syndication agent with respect to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, provided that the Syndication Agent may perform such of the duties of Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are expressly delegated in writing to the Syndication Agent by the Agent or all of the Banks and accepted in writing by the Syndication Agent, and in so acting the Syndication Agent may act by or through employees or agents and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to its duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. In connection with the performance by the Syndication Agent of duties of the Agent, to the extent so expressly delegated in accordance herewith, the Syndication Agent shall be deemed to have all the rights, responsibilities, discretion, limitations on actions, exculpation and indemnification applicable to the Agent under such circumstances.

8.03 No Representations; Each Bank's Independent Investigation.

Neither the Agent nor the Syndication Agent shall be responsible for (a) the execution, validity or enforceability of this Agreement, the Notes, any of the other Loan Documents or any instrument at any time constituting, or intended to constitute, collateral security for the Notes, (b) the value of any such collateral security, (c) the validity, enforceability or collectibility of any such amounts owing with respect to the Notes, or (d) any recitals or statements, warranties or representations made herein or in any of the other Loan Documents or in any certificate or instrument hereafter furnished to it by or on behalf of any Loan Party. Neither the Agent nor the Syndication Agent shall be bound (a) 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 Indebtedness evidenced by the Notes or (b) to ascertain whether any notice, consent, waiver or request delivered to it by any Loan Party or any holder of any of the Notes shall have been duly authorized or is true, accurate and complete. Neither the Agent nor the Syndication Agent has made nor does it now make any representations or warranties, express or implied, nor does it assume any liability to the Banks with respect to the creditworthiness, financial condition or any other condition of any Loan Party or with respect to the statements contained in any information memorandum furnished in connection herewith or in any other oral or written communication between the Agent and such Bank or the Syndication Agent and such Bank. Each Bank acknowledges that it has, independently without reliance upon the Agent, the Syndication Agent or any other Bank, and based upon such information and documents as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and agrees that neither the Agent nor the Syndication Agent has a duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Bank with any credit or other information with respect thereto (other than such notices as may be expressly required to be given by the Agent to the Banks hereunder).

8.04 Payments to Banks.

(a) As between the Agent and the Borrower, a payment by the Borrower to the Agent hereunder or any of the other Loan Documents for the account of any Bank shall constitute a payment to such Bank. The Agent agrees to promptly, but in any event not later than the end of the following Business Day, distribute to each Bank such Bank's Pro Rata Share of payments received by the Agent for the account of the Banks in immediately available funds (except as may otherwise be provided with respect to an Impacted Bank).

(b) 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, could reasonably be expected to 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 by the Agent for the account of the Banks is to be distributed, the Agent shall distribute to each Bank such Bank's Pro Rata Share of the amount so adjudged to be distributed or in such manner as shall be determined by such court, together with interest thereon, in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date such amount was made available to the Agent and ending on the date the Agent distributes such amount, at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate earned by the Agent on such amount during such period. 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.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, any Bank that fails (i) to make available to the Agent its Pro Rata Share of any Loan that the Agent made on its behalf or (ii) to comply with the provisions of Section 7.04 with

respect to it obtaining an Advantage, in each case as, when and to the full extent required by the provisions of this Agreement, shall be deemed delinquent and shall not be entitled to vote on any matters until such time as such delinquency is cured. Such Bank shall be deemed to have assigned any and all payments due it from the Borrower, whether on account of outstanding Loans, interest, fees or otherwise, to the remaining Banks for application to, and reduction of, their respective Pro Rata Shares of all outstanding Loans. Such Bank hereby authorizes the Agent to distribute such payments to the other Banks in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Shares of all outstanding Loans. Such Bank shall be deemed to have satisfied in full a delinquency when and if the Banks' respective Pro Rata Shares of all outstanding Loans have returned to those in effect immediately prior to such delinquency and without giving effect to the nonpayment causing such delinquency.

8.05 Note Holders.

The Agent may treat the payee of any Note as the holder thereof until written notice of transfer shall have been filed with it signed by such payee and in form satisfactory to the Agent.

8.06 Documents.

The Agent shall not be under any duty to examine into or pass upon the validity, effectiveness, genuineness or value of any Loan Documents or any other document furnished pursuant hereto or in connection herewith or the value of any collateral obtained hereunder, and the Agent shall be entitled to assume that the same are valid, effective and genuine and what they purport to be.

8.07 Agents and Affiliates.

With respect to the Loans, the Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not the agent, and the Agent and its affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any of its Affiliates.

8.08 Indemnification of Agent.

The Banks ratably agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Agent (to the extent not indemnified by the Borrower) from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Agent in its capacity as agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any Loan Document or any action taken or omitted by the Agent with respect to this Agreement or any Loan Document, provided that no Bank shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including attorney fees) or disbursements resulting from the Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. The obligations of the Banks under this Section 8.08 shall survive the payment in full of all amounts due pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document and the termination of this Agreement.

8.09 Successor Agent; Documentation or Syndication Agent.

(a) The Agent may resign as administrative agent hereunder by giving not fewer than thirty (30) days' prior written notice to the Borrower and the Banks. If the Agent shall resign under this Agreement, then either (a) the Majority Banks shall appoint from among the Banks a successor administrative agent for the Banks or (b) if a successor administrative agent shall not be so appointed and

approved within the thirty (30) day period following the Agent's notice to the Banks of its resignation, then the Agent shall appoint a successor administrative agent who shall serve as administrative agent until such time as the Majority Banks appoint a successor administrative agent pursuant to clause (a). Upon its appointment, such successor administrative agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties as administrative agent, and the term "Agent" shall mean such successor effective upon its appointment, and the former administrative agent's rights, powers and duties as administrative agent shall be terminated without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former administrative agent or any of the parties to this Agreement.

(b) The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that no Person shall have, solely by reason of its designation as a syndication agent, any power, duty, responsibility or liability whatsoever under this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents.

8.10 Knowledge of Default.

It is expressly understood and agreed that if the Agent has not been notified by the Borrower in writing that an Event of Default or Potential Default has occurred, the Agent shall be entitled to assume that no Event of Default or Potential Default has occurred and is continuing unless the Agent has been notified by a Bank in writing that such Bank considers that an Event of Default or Potential Default has occurred and is continuing and specifying the nature thereof.

8.11 Action by Agent.

So long as the Agent shall be entitled, pursuant to Section 8.10 hereof, to assume that no Event of Default or Potential Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Agent shall be entitled to use its discretion with respect to exercising or refraining from exercising any rights which may be vested in it by, or with respect to taking or refraining from taking any action or actions which it may be able to take under or in respect of, this Agreement. The Agent shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement by acting upon any notice, certificate, warranty or other paper or instrument believed by it to be genuine or authentic or to be signed by the proper party or parties, or with respect to anything which it may do or refrain from doing in the reasonable exercise of its judgment.

8.12 Notification of Potential Defaults and Events of Defaults.

Each Bank hereby agrees that, upon learning of the existence of a Potential Default or Event of Default, it shall promptly notify the Agent thereof. In the event that the Agent receives notice of an Event of Default or Potential Default, the Agent shall promptly notify all of the Banks and shall take such action and assert such rights under this Agreement as the Majority Banks shall direct and the Agent shall promptly inform the Banks in writing of the action taken. The Agent may take such action and assert such rights as it deems to be advisable, in its discretion, for the protection of the interests of the holders of the Notes.

8.13 Declaration of Invalidation.

Each Bank agrees that, to the extent that any payments received by any Bank from any Loan Party or otherwise on account of the Loans are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or judicially required to be repaid to a debtor-in-possession, trustee, receiver, custodian or any other Person in connection with any proceeding referred to in Section 7.01(n) hereof or any similar cause of action ("Preference"), then, to the extent of such Preference, each Bank shall, upon demand, reimburse the Bank subject to such Preference in the amount necessary to cause each Bank to be affected by such Preference in proportion to its Pro Rata Share of the Loans.

8.14 Pro Rata Portion, Pari Passu and Equal.

The Pro Rata Share of each Bank in the Revolving Credit Loans and the Letters of Credit shall be pari passu and equal with the Pro Rata Share of each other Bank and no Bank shall have priority over the other. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Impacted Bank shall be deemed to have assigned any and all payments due to it from the Borrower, whether on account of or relating to outstanding Loans, Letters of Credit, interest, fees or otherwise, to the remaining Banks that are not Impacted Banks for application to, and reduction of, their respective Pro Rata Share of all outstanding Loans and other unpaid Indebtedness of any of the Loan Parties hereunder or under any other Loan Document. Each Impacted Bank hereby authorizes the Agent to distribute such payments to the Banks that are not Impacted Banks in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Share of all outstanding Loans and other unpaid Indebtedness of any of the Loan Parties hereunder or under any other Loan Document to which such Banks are entitled. A Defaulting Bank 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 other unpaid Indebtedness of any of the Loan Parties hereunder or under any other Loan Document of the Banks that are not Impacted Banks, the Banks' respective Pro Rata Shares of all outstanding Loans, Letters of Credit, interest, fees and other unpaid Indebtedness of any of the Loan Parties hereunder or under any other Loan Document have returned to those in effect immediately prior to such delinquency. An Impacted Bank (other than a Defaulting Bank) shall be deemed to no longer be an Impacted Bank when (i) the Agent, the applicable Issuing Bank(s) and/or the Swing Line Lender no longer has a good faith belief that such Bank has defaulted in fulfilling its obligations under one or more other syndicated credit facilities, (ii) such Impacted Bank is no longer deemed insolvent by an Official Body or the subject of a bankruptcy, receivership, conservatorship or insolvency proceeding, and/or (iii) such Impacted Bank no longer has a parent company that is deemed insolvent by an Official Body or is the subject of a bankruptcy, receivership, conservatorship or insolvency proceeding.

8.15 Cooperation.

Each Bank agrees that it shall cooperate in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner with each other Bank and take whatever reasonable actions (at its own expense) are necessary to implement decisions made in accordance with this Agreement and with each of the other Loan Documents relating thereto.

8.16 Obligations Several.

The obligations of the Banks hereunder are several and not joint. Nothing contained in this Agreement, and no action taken by the Agent or the Banks pursuant hereto, shall be deemed to constitute a partnership, association, joint venture or other entity between any of the Banks. No default by any Bank hereunder shall excuse any Bank from any obligation under this Agreement, but no Bank shall have or acquire any additional obligation of any kind by reason of such default. The relationship among the Loan Parties and the Banks with respect to the Loan Documents and any other document executed in connection therewith is and shall be solely that of debtor and creditors, respectively, and neither the Agent nor any Bank has any fiduciary obligation toward any Loan Party with respect to any such documents or the transactions contemplated thereby.

8.17 Bank Assignments/Participations.

(A) Assignment/Transfer of Commitments.

Each Bank shall have the right at any time or times to assign or transfer to an Eligible Assignee or any affiliate of such Bank, without recourse, all or a portion of (a) that Bank's Commitment, (b) all Loans made by that Bank, (c) that Bank's Notes, and (d) that Bank's participation in

(iii) Minimum Amount. No transfer may be consummated pursuant to this Section 8.17(A) (other than a transfer by any Bank to an affiliate of such Bank) in an aggregate amount less than (a) Five Million and 00/100 Dollars ($5,000,000.00) or (b) if such Bank's Commitment is at any time less than Five Million and 00/100 Dollars ($5,000,000.00), the entire amount of such Bank's Commitment.

(iv) Agreement; Transfer Fee. Unless the transfer shall be to an affiliate of the transferor or the transfer shall be due to merger of the transferor or for regulatory purposes, the transferor (A) shall remit to the Agent, for its own account, an administrative fee of Three Thousand Five Hundred and 00/100 Dollars ($3,500.00) and (B) shall cause the transferee to execute and deliver to the Borrower, the Agent and each Bank (1) an Assignment Agreement, in the form of Exhibit "D" attached hereto and made a part hereof (an "Assignment Agreement") together with the consents and releases and the Administrative Questionnaire referenced therein, and (2) such additional amendments, assurances and other writings as the Agent may reasonably require.

Upon delivery of the new Notes, the transferor's Notes shall be promptly returned to the Borrower marked "replaced".

(vi) Parties. Upon satisfaction of the requirements of this Section 8.17, including the payment of the fee and the delivery of the documents set forth in Section 8.17(A) (iv), (A) the transferee shall become and thereafter be deemed to be a "Bank" for the purposes of this Agreement, (B) if the transferor transfers all of its interest, the transferor shall cease to be and thereafter shall no longer be deemed to be a "Bank" and shall have no further rights or obligations under or in connection herewith, and (C) the signature pages hereof and Schedule 1 hereto shall be automatically amended, without further action, to reflect the result of any such transfer.

(vii) The Register. The Agent shall maintain a copy of each Assignment Agreement delivered to it and a register or similar list (the "Register") for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Banks and the Commitment Percentages of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Bank from time to time. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of

manifest error, with respect to such information, and the Borrower, the Agent and the Banks may treat each financial institution whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of the Loan recorded therein for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Bank at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(e) Such assignee represents and warrants that it is an Eligible Assignee;

Each Bank shall have the right at any time or times, without the consent of any other party, to sell one or more participations or sub-participations to one or more financial institutions or any affiliate of such Bank, in all or any part of (a) that Bank's Commitment, (b) that Bank's Commitment Percentage, (c) any Loan made by that Bank, (d) any Note delivered to that Bank pursuant to this Agreement and (e) that Bank's participations, if any, purchased pursuant to Section 7.04 or this Section 8.17(B).

(i) Rights Reserved. In the event any Bank shall sell any participation or sub-participation, that Bank shall, as between itself and the purchaser, retain all of its rights (including, without limitation, rights to enforce against the Loan Parties the Loan Documents and any and all other documents in connection therewith) and duties pursuant to the Loan Documents and any and all other documents in connection therewith, including, without limitation, that Bank's right to approve any waiver, consent or amendment pursuant to Section 9.02; provided, however, that (a) any such participation shall be in a minimum amount of Five Million and 00/100 Dollars ($5,000,000.00) and (b) the holder of any such participation shall not be entitled to require such Bank to take any action hereunder except action directly affecting (i) any reduction in the principal amount or an interest rate on any Loan in which such holder participates; (ii) any extension of the Expiry Date or the date fixed for any payment of interest or principal payable with respect to any Loan in which such holder participates; and (iii) any reduction in the amount of any fees payable hereunder with respect to any Loan in which such holder participates. The Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that the participant under each participation shall for purposes of Sections 2.12(b), 2.13, 7.03 and 9.16 be considered to be a "Bank". Except as otherwise set forth herein, no participant or sub-participant shall have any rights or obligations hereunder, and the Loan Parties and the Agent shall continue to deal with the Banks as if no participation or sub-participation had occurred. The Agent shall continue to distribute payments as if no participation or sub-participation had been sold.

(ii) No Delegation. No participation or sub-participation shall operate as a delegation of any duty of the seller thereof. Under no circumstances shall any participation or sub-participation be deemed a novation in respect of all or any part of the seller's obligations pursuant to this Agreement.

In the case of any such waiver or consent relating to any provision of this Agreement, any Event of Default or Potential Default so waived or consented to will be deemed to be cured and not continuing, but no such waiver or consent will extend to any other or subsequent Event of Default or Potential Default or impair any right consequent to any other or subsequent Event of Default or Potential Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

In addition to the payment of expenses pursuant to Section 9.05 hereof, the Borrower agrees to indemnify, pay and hold the Agent and each Bank and their officers, directors, employees, agents, consultants, auditors, affiliates and attorneys (collectively, called the "Indemnitees"), harmless from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for such Indemnitees in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding commenced or threatened, whether or not such Indemnitee shall be designated a party thereto) that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against that Indemnitee, in any matter arising from (i) the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, (ii) the use or intended use of the proceeds of any of the Loans, (iii) the exercise of any right or remedy hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents or (iv) any error, failure or delay in the performance of any of the Banks' obligations under this Agreement caused by natural disaster, fire, war, strike, civil unrest, error in inoperability of communication equipment or lines or any other circumstances beyond the control of the Banks (the "Indemnified Liabilities"); provided, however, that the Borrower shall have no obligation to an Indemnitee hereunder with respect to Indemnified Liabilities arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of that Indemnitee.

9.17 Certifications from Bank and Participants.

(a) Tax Withholding. Any assignee or participant of a Bank that is not incorporated under the Laws of the United States of America or a state thereof (and, upon the written request of such Bank, assignee or participant of such Bank, or the Agent) agrees that it will deliver to the Borrower, such Bank and the Agent three (3) duly completed appropriate valid Withholding Certificates (as defined under §1.1441-1(c)(16) of the Income Tax Regulations (the "Regulations")) certifying its status (i.e. U.S. or foreign person) and, if appropriate, making a claim of reduced, or exemption from, U.S. withholding tax on the basis of an income tax treaty or an exemption provided by the Code. The term "Withholding Certificate" means a Form W-9; a Form W-8BEN; a Form W-8ECI; a Form W-8IMY and the related statements and certifications as required under § 1.1441-1(e)(2) and/or (3) of the Regulations; a statement described in § 1.871-14(c)(2)(v) of the Regulations; or any other certificates under the Code or Regulations that certify or establish the status of a payee or beneficial owner as a U.S. or foreign person. Any assignee or participant required to deliver to the Borrower, a Bank and the Agent a Withholding Certificate pursuant to the preceding sentence shall deliver such valid Withholding Certificate at least five (5) Business Days before the effective date of such assignment or participation (unless such Bank in its sole discretion shall permit such assignee or participant to deliver such valid Withholding Certificate less than five (5) Business Days before such date in which case it shall be due on the date specified by such Bank). Any assignee or participant which so delivers a valid Withholding Certificate further undertakes to deliver to the Borrower, a Bank and the Agent three (3) additional copies of such Withholding Certificate (or a successor form) on or before the date that such Withholding Certificate expires or becomes obsolete or after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent Withholding Certificate so delivered by it, and such amendments thereto or extensions or renewals thereof as may be reasonably requested by the Borrower, such Bank or the Agent. Notwithstanding the submission of a Withholding Certificate claiming a reduced rate of or exemption from U.S. withholding tax, such Bank and/or the Agent shall be entitled to withhold United States federal income taxes at the full thirty percent (30%) withholding rate if in its reasonable judgment it is required to do so under the due diligence requirements imposed upon a withholding agent under § 1.1441-7(b) of the Regulations. Further, such Bank and/or the Agent is indemnified under § 1.1461-1(e) of the Regulations against any claims and demands of any assignee or participant of such Bank for the amount of any tax it deducts and withholds in accordance with regulations under § 1441 of the Code.]

(b) USA Patriot Act. Each Bank or assignee or participant of a Bank that is not incorporated under the Laws of the United States of America or a state thereof (and is not excepted from the certification requirement contained in Section 313 of the USA Patriot Act and the applicable regulations because it is both (i) an affiliate of a depository institution or foreign bank that maintains a physical presence in the United States or foreign country, and (ii) subject to supervision by a banking authority regulating such affiliated depository institution or foreign bank) shall deliver to the Agent the certification, or, if applicable, recertification, certifying that such Bank is not a "shell" and certifying to other matters as required by Section 313 of the USA Patriot Act and the applicable regulations: (1) within ten (10) days after the Closing Date, and (2) as such other times as are required under the USA Patriot Act.

9.18 Confidentiality.

(a) General. Each Bank agrees to keep confidential all information obtained from the Loan Parties which is nonpublic and confidential or proprietary in nature (including without limitation any information a Loan Party specifically designates as confidential), except as provided below, and to use such information only in connection with this Agreement and for the purposes contemplated hereby. Each Bank shall be permitted to disclose such information (i) to outside legal counsel, accountants and other professional advisors who need to know such information in connection with the administration and enforcement of this Agreement, subject to agreement of such Persons to maintain the confidentiality of such information in accordance with the terms hereof, (ii) to assignees and participants as contemplated by Section 8.17, and prospective assignees and participants, subject to the agreement of such Persons to maintain the confidentiality of such information in accordance with the terms hereof, (iii) to the extent requested by any bank regulatory authority or, with notice to the applicable Loan Party, as otherwise required by applicable Law or by any subpoena or similar legal process, or in connection with any investigation or proceeding arising out of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, (iv) if it becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Agreement or becomes available from a source not known to be subject to confidentiality restrictions, or (v) if the applicable Loan Party shall have consented, in writing, to such disclosure. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the information subject to this Section 9.18 shall not include, and a Bank may disclose without limitation of any kind, any information with respect to the "tax treatment" and "tax structure" (in each case, within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011-4) of the transactions contemplated hereby and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to such Bank relating to such tax treatment and tax structure; provided that with respect to any document or similar item that in either case contains information concerning the tax treatment or tax structure of the transaction as well as other information, this sentence shall only apply to such portions of the document or similar item that relate to the tax treatment or tax structure of the Loans and transactions contemplated hereby.

(b) Sharing Information With Affiliates of the Bank. The Loan Parties acknowledge that from time to time financial advisory, investment banking and other services may be offered or provided to the Loan Parties or one or more of its Affiliates (in connection with this Agreement or otherwise) by a Bank or by one or more Subsidiaries or Affiliates of such Bank and each Loan Party hereby authorizes such Bank to share any information delivered to such Bank by the Loan Parties pursuant to this Agreement, or in connection with the decision of the Bank to enter into this Agreement, to any such Subsidiary or Affiliate of such Bank, it being understood that any such Subsidiary or Affiliate of such Bank receiving such information shall be bound by the provisions of Section 9.18 as if it were a Bank hereunder. Such authorization shall survive the repayment of the Loans.

9.19 Judgment Currency.

(a) Currency Conversion Procedures for Judgments. If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or under a Revolving Credit Note in any currency (the "Original Currency") into another currency (the "Other Currency"), the parties hereby agree, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures each Bank could purchase the Original Currency with the Other Currency after any premium and costs of exchange on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given.

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

[INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK]

9.19 WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY. THE BORROWER, THE AGENT AND THE BANKS EXPRESSLY, KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVE ALL BENEFIT AND ADVANTAGE OF ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY, AND NO PARTY HERETO WILL AT ANY TIME INSIST UPON, OR PLEAD OR IN ANY MANNER WHATSOEVER CLAIM OR TAKE THE BENEFIT OR ADVANTAGE OF A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTES OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.

1. Becomes an absolute and unconditional guarantor and surety as though it were a primary obligor to the Agent and the Banks, their respective successors, endorsees and assigns, for (i) the prompt payment and performance when due (whether at maturity, by declaration, acceleration or otherwise) of all existing and future liabilities and obligations of the Debtor to the Agent and the Banks under the Loan Documents to which the Debtor is a party, including any extensions, modifications, renewals thereof and substitutions therefor, whether absolute or contingent, direct or indirect, matured or unmatured, sole, joint or several, of any nature whatsoever, without regard to the validity, enforceability or regularity thereof including, without limitation, continuing interest thereon in accordance with the terms thereof and all expenses (including any reasonable costs of legal expenses) incurred by the Agent or any Bank in enforcing any rights with regard to or collecting against the Guarantor under this Guaranty and Suretyship Agreement ("Agreement") and (ii) the due and punctual performance of and/or compliance with all of the terms, conditions and covenants contained in each of the Loan Agreement, the Notes (as defined in the Loan Agreement) and the other Loan Documents (as defined in the Loan Agreement) to be performed or complied with by the Debtor and the accuracy of the Debtor's representations and warranties contained in each of the Loan Documents (hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Debtor Liabilities"), whether or not such Debtor Liabilities or any portion thereof shall hereafter be released or discharged or is for any reason invalid or unenforceable (capitalized terms used in this Agreement that are defined in the Loan Agreement shall have the meanings assigned to them therein unless otherwise defined in this Agreement);

2. Assents to all agreements made or to be made between the Agent or any Bank and any other Person(s) liable, either absolutely or contingently, on any of the Debtor Liabilities, including any and all such agreements made by the Debtor and any co-maker, endorser, pledgor, surety or guarantor (any such Person being hereinafter referred to as an "Obligor"), and further agrees that the Guarantor's liability hereunder shall not be reduced or diminished by such agreements in any way;

3. Consents and agrees that its obligations and liabilities hereunder shall in no way be reduced, limited, waived or released if any other Person or Persons is presently or in the future becomes a surety or guarantor in regard to the Debtor Liabilities or any other liabilities among the Debtor, the Agent and the Banks;

4. Consents that the Agent and the Banks may, at their option, without in any way affecting the Guarantor's liability hereunder: (i) exchange, surrender or release any or all collateral security of any endorsement, guaranty or surety held by the Agent or the Banks for any of the Debtor Liabilities; (ii) renew, extend, modify, supplement, amend, release, alter or compromise the terms of any or all of the Debtor Liabilities; and (iii) waive or fail to perfect the Agent's and the Banks' rights or remedies against the Debtor or the collateral security for any of the Debtor Liabilities; and

5. Warrants that the address specified on the signature page hereof, immediately below the Guarantor's name, is the Guarantor's true and correct address, and agrees to notify the Agent and the Banks, in the manner hereinafter specified, within ten (10) days after any change in the Guarantor's address.

CONTINUING GUARANTOR. This Agreement shall be a continuing one and shall continue in full force and effect until (subject to the terms and conditions of the Section of this Agreement entitled Bankruptcy of the Debtor), all Debtor Liabilities and all other amounts payable under the Loan Documents have been paid and performed in full, and all commitments to extend credit thereunder have terminated. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any right to terminate or revoke this Agreement.

EXTENT OF GUARANTOR'S LIABILITY. This Agreement shall be the joint and several obligations of the Guarantor and the other Guarantors and it is intended to be an absolute and unconditional guaranty and suretyship for the Debtor Liabilities including, but not limited to, the Debtor's Indebtedness under the Loan Agreement; provided, however, that the Guarantor's total liability hereunder shall be limited as set forth below. The obligations of the Guarantor under this Agreement, when construed collectively with the obligations of the other Guarantors, are intended to be the joint and several obligations of the Guarantor and the other Guarantors for the aggregate of the maximum liability of the Guarantor as set forth below.

Subject to the remainder of this paragraph, but otherwise notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the maximum liability of the Guarantor under this Agreement shall not exceed the sum of (a) that portion of the Loans (as defined in the Loan Agreement), the proceeds of which are used by Debtor to make Valuable Transfers (as hereinafter defined) to the Guarantor, plus (b) ninety-five percent (95%) of the Adjusted Net Worth (as hereinafter defined), but only to the extent that Adjusted Net Worth is a positive number, of the Guarantor at the date of this Agreement. For purposes of this paragraph:

"Adjusted Net Worth" shall mean, as of any date of determination thereof, the excess of (a) the amount of the fair saleable value of the assets of the Guarantor as of the date of such determination, determined in accordance with applicable federal and state laws governing determinations of insolvency of debtors, over (b) the amount of all liabilities of the Guarantor, contingent or otherwise, as of the date of such determination,

determined on the basis provided in the preceding clause (a), in all events prior to giving effect to Valuable Transfers.

"Valuable Transfers" shall mean (a) all loans, advances or capital contributions made to the Guarantor with proceeds of the Loans, (b) the fair market value of all property acquired with proceeds of the Loans and transferred to the Guarantor, (c) the interest on and the fees in respect of the Loans, the proceeds of which are used to make such a Valuable Transfer, and (d) the value of any quantifiable economic benefits not included in clauses (a) through (c) above, but includable in accordance with applicable federal and state laws governing determinations of the insolvency of debtors, accruing to the Guarantor as a result of the Loans.

The Guarantor agrees that the Debtor Liabilities may at any time and from time to time exceed the maximum liability of the Guarantor hereunder without impairing this Agreement or affecting the rights and remedies of the Agent and the Banks hereunder. No payment or payments made by the Debtor, the Guarantor or any other Person or received or collected by the Agent or any Bank from the Debtor, the Guarantor or any other Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any set-off or appropriation or application at any time or from time to time in reduction of or in payment of the Debtor Liabilities shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the liability of the Guarantor under this Agreement and the Guarantor shall, notwithstanding any such payment or payments (other than payments made to the Agent or any Bank by the Guarantor or payments received or collected by the Agent or any Bank from the Guarantor), remain liable for the Debtor Liabilities up to the maximum liability amount of the Guarantor set forth in this paragraph until the Debtor Liabilities are indefeasibly paid in full in cash; provided, however, that, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in no event shall the Guarantor's liability under this paragraph exceed the maximum amount that, after giving effect to the incurring of the obligations hereunder and to any rights to contribution of the Guarantor from the Debtor and other affiliates of the Debtor, would not render the Agent's and the Banks' right to payment hereunder void, voidable or avoidable under any applicable fraudulent transfer law; and further provided that if a greater amount of the Debtor Liabilities than the maximum liability set forth in this paragraph could be repaid by the Guarantor as a result of an increase in the Guarantor's Adjusted Net Worth subsequent to the date of this Agreement, without rendering the Agent's and the Banks' right to payment hereunder void, voidable or avoidable under any applicable fraudulent transfer law, then the amount of the Guarantor's maximum liability calculated in the first sentence of this paragraph shall be calculated based upon the Guarantor's Adjusted Net Worth on such later date, rather than the date of execution of this Agreement.

UNCONDITIONAL LIABILITY. The Guarantor's liability hereunder is absolute and unconditional and shall not be reduced, limited, waived, or released in any way by reason of: (i) any failure of the Agent or any Bank to obtain, retain, preserve, perfect or enforce any rights against any Person (including without limitation, any Obligor) or in any property securing any or all of the Debtor Liabilities; (ii) the invalidity or irregularity of any such rights that the Agent and the Banks may attempt to obtain; (iii) any delay in enforcing or any failure to enforce such rights, even if such rights are thereby lost; (iv) any delay in making demand on any Obligor for payment or performance of any or all of the Debtor Liabilities; or (v) from time to time, the payment in full and subsequent incurring of any Debtor Liabilities.

RIGHT OF SET-OFF. As security for the prompt payment when due on the liabilities of the Guarantor hereunder, the Guarantor hereby grants to the Agent and the Banks a lien and security interest in all property of the Guarantor now or at any later time in the Agent's or any Bank's possession in any capacity including, but not limited to, any balance or share of any deposit account, or otherwise, now or hereafter owed by the Agent or any Bank from time to time to the Guarantor in any regard or in any capacity, and whether or not then due. Such lien and security interest shall be independent of any right of setoff that the Agent and the Banks may have. If any liability of the Guarantor hereunder is not paid to the Agent when due, the Agent and the Banks may forthwith: (i) set-off against the liabilities of the Guarantor hereunder all moneys owed by the Agent or any Bank to the Guarantor in any capacity, whether or not then due, and whether provisionally or finally credited upon the Agent's and the Banks' books and records; and (ii) sell all or any part of any such property held as collateral on or at the option of the Agent and the Banks, at any time or times without advertisement, demand or notice to the Guarantor (any and all of which are hereby waived), except such notice, if any, as may be required by Law and cannot be waived, with the right on the part of the Agent and the Banks or their respective nominees to become the purchasers thereof at any such sale, free of any equity of redemption and of all other claims.

WAIVER. The Guarantor hereby waives all notice with respect to the present existence or future incurrence of any Debtor Liabilities including, but not limited to, the amount, terms and conditions thereof. The Guarantor hereby consents to the taking of, or failure to take, from time to time, any action of any nature whatsoever permitted by Law with respect to the Debtor Liabilities and with respect to any rights against any Person or Persons (including, without limitation, any Obligor), or in any property including, without limitation, any renewals, extensions, modifications, postponements, compromises, indulgences, waivers, surrenders, exchanges and releases, and the Guarantor will remain fully liable hereunder notwithstanding any or all of the foregoing. The granting of an express written release of the Guarantor's liability hereunder or any Obligor’s liability shall be effective only with respect to the liability hereunder of such Guarantor or Obligor who is specifically so expressly released but shall in no way affect the liability hereunder of the Guarantor or Obligor not so expressly released. The dissolution of the Guarantor shall in no way affect the liability hereunder or that of any other Obligor. The Guarantor hereby expressly waives: (i) notices of acceptance hereof; (ii) any presentment, demand, protest, notice of default in connection with the Debtor Liabilities, dishonor or notice of dishonor; (iii) any right of indemnification; and (iv) any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense whatsoever to the liability of the Debtor, or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or in discharge of, the Guarantor with respect to its obligations hereunder.

No payment by the Guarantor shall entitle any other Guarantor or Obligor, by subrogation, contribution, indemnification or otherwise, to succeed to any of the rights of the Agent and the Banks, including rights to any payment made on account of the Debtor Liabilities, regardless of the source of such payment, until all of the Debtor's obligations to the Agent and the Banks under the Loan Documents are satisfied in full. The Guarantor hereby waives any benefit of and any right to participate in any collateral security now or hereafter held by the Agent and the Banks or any failure or refusal by the Agent and the Banks to perfect an interest in any collateral security.

BANKRUPTCY OF THE DEBTOR. Neither the Guarantor's obligations to make payment in accordance with the terms of this Agreement nor any remedy for the enforcement hereof shall be impaired, modified, changed, released or limited in any manner whatsoever by the Debtor's bankruptcy or by any impairment, modification, change, release or limitation of (i) the liability of the Debtor, any Person assuming the obligations of the Debtor under any of the Loan Documents or the Debtor's estate in bankruptcy or (ii) any remedy for the enforcement of the Debtor Liabilities, either of which result from the operation of any present or further provision of any bankruptcy act, Law or equitable cause or from the decision of any court. The Guarantor agrees that to the extent that the Debtor or any other Person liable for all or any part of the Debtor Liabilities makes a payment or payments to the Agent or any Bank, which payment or payments or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be paid to a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any bankruptcy act, Law or equitable cause, then to the extent of such payment, the Debtor Liabilities or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if said payment had not been made.

PAYMENT OF COSTS. In addition to all other liabilities of the Guarantor hereunder, the Guarantor also agrees to pay to the Agent on demand all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and legal expenses) which may be incurred in the enforcement or collection of the liabilities of the Guarantor hereunder.

PRIMARY LIABILITY OF THE GUARANTOR. The Guarantor agrees that this Agreement may be enforced by the Agent and the Banks without the necessity at any time of resorting to or exhausting any other security or collateral and without the necessity at any time of having recourse to the Loan Documents, or any collateral now or hereafter securing the Debtor Liabilities or otherwise, and the Guarantor hereby waives the right to require the Agent and the Banks to proceed against any other Obligor or to require the Agent and the Banks to pursue any other remedy or enforce any other right. The Guarantor further agrees that nothing contained herein shall prevent the Agent and the Banks from suing on the Loan Documents, or any of them, or foreclosing their Lien, if any, on any collateral hereafter securing the Debtor Liabilities or from exercising any other rights available under the Loan Documents, or any other instrument of security if neither the Debtor nor the Guarantor timely perform the obligations of the Debtor thereunder, and the exercise of any of the aforesaid rights and the completion of any foreclosure proceedings shall not constitute a discharge of any of the obligations of the Guarantor thereunder; it being the purpose and intent of the Guarantor that the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall be absolute, independent and unconditional. Neither the obligations of the Guarantor under this Agreement nor any remedy for the enforcement thereof shall be impaired, modified, changed or released in any manner whatsoever by an impairment, modification, change, release or limitation of the liability of the Debtor or by reason of the bankruptcy or insolvency of the Debtor. If acceleration of the time for payment of any amount payable by the Debtor is stayed upon the insolvency or bankruptcy of the Debtor, amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of the Loan Documents including, without limitation, interest at the rates set forth in the Loan Agreement occurring after the date of such bankruptcy or insolvency, shall nonetheless be payable by the Guarantor hereunder forthwith on demand by the Agent. The Guarantor acknowledges that the term "Debtor Liabilities" as used herein includes any payments made by the Debtor to the Agent or the Banks and subsequently recovered by the Debtor or a trustee for any Debtor pursuant to bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings.

ACCELERATION OF THE GUARANTOR'S LIABILITIES. Upon the occurrence of any of the following events (each such event an "Event of Default"), all of the Debtor Liabilities, at the Agent's and the Banks' option, shall be deemed to be forthwith due and payable for the purposes of this Agreement and for determining the liability of the Guarantor hereunder, whether or not the Agent and the Banks have any such rights against any other Obligor, and whether or not the Agent and the Banks elect to exercise any rights or remedies against any other Person or property including, without limitation, any other Obligor: (1) the failure of the Guarantor to perform any material covenant or obligation hereunder; (2) the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Loan Agreement; (3) any information or signature heretofore or hereafter furnished to the Agent or any Bank by the Guarantor, or delivered to the Agent or any Bank by an Obligor in connection with any of the Debtor Liabilities, is materially false or incorrect at the time when made; or (4) the failure of the Guarantor or any Obligor to furnish the Agent and the Banks such financial and other information as required by the Loan Documents.

RIGHTS OF THE GUARANTOR. All rights and remedies of the Guarantor against the Debtor or any property of the Debtor or any collateral security for any of the Debtor Liabilities, whether arising by promissory note, subrogation, security agreement, mortgage or otherwise, shall in all respects be and remain subordinate and junior in right of payment and priority to the prior and indefeasible payment in full to the Agent and the Banks of all Debtor Liabilities and to the priority of the Agent and the Banks in any property of the Debtor and any collateral security for any of the Debtor Liabilities. Any amount which may have been paid to the Guarantor on account of any indebtedness of the Debtor to the Guarantor, or on account of any subrogation or other rights of the Guarantor against the Debtor, when all of the Debtor Liabilities shall not have been indefeasibly paid in full, shall be held by the undersigned in trust for the benefit of the Banks and shall forthwith be paid to the Agent to be credited and applied upon the Debtor Liabilities, whether matured or unmatured.

NOTICE TO THE AGENT AND THE BANKS BY THE GUARANTOR. Any notice to the Agent or the Banks by the Guarantor pursuant to the provisions hereof shall be sent by first-class or first-class express mail, private overnight or next business day courier or by telex or telecopy with confirmation in writing mailed first class, in all cases with charges prepaid, and any such properly given notice will be effective when received, to:

If any provision of this Agreement shall for any reason be held to be invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision hereof, but this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.

THE HOLDER HEREOF MAY CONFESS ONE OR MORE JUDGMENTS IN THE SAME OR DIFFERENT JURISDICTIONS FOR ALL OR ANY PART OF THE AMOUNT OWING HEREUNDER, WITHOUT REGARD TO WHETHER JUDGMENT HAS THERETOFORE BEEN CONFESSED ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION FOR THE SAME AMOUNT.
