guarantees or redeems any Indebtedness subsequent to the commencement of the period for
which such ratio is being calculated but on or prior to or simultaneously with the event
for which the calculation of such ratio is made (the “Calculation Date”), then such
ratio shall be calculated giving pro forma effect to such incurrence, assumption, guarantee
or redemption of Indebtedness, as if the same had occurred at the beginning of the
applicable reference period.
(ii) For purposes of making the computation referred to above, Investments,
acquisitions, dispositions, mergers and consolidations that have been made by the Borrower
or any Borrower Subsidiary during the reference period or subsequent to the reference
period and on or prior to or simultaneously with the Calculation Date shall be given pro
forma effect as if all such Investments, acquisitions, dispositions, mergers and
consolidations (and all related financing transactions) had occurred on the first day of
the reference period. Additionally, if since the beginning of such reference period any
Person that subsequently became a Borrower Subsidiary or was merged with or into the
Borrower or any Borrower Subsidiaiy since the beginning of such reference period shall have
made any Investment, acquisition, disposition, merger or consolidation that would have
required adjustment pursuant to this definition, then such ratio shall be calculated giving
pro forma effect thereto for such reference period as if such Investment, acquisition,
disposition, merger or consolidation (and all related financing transactions) had occurred
at the beginning of the reference period.
(iii) For purposes of the calculations referred to herein, whenever pro forma effect
is to be given to a transaction, the pro forma calculations (including any cost savings
associated therewith) shall be made in accordance with Regulation S-X under the Securities
Act. In addition, any such pro forma calculation may include adjustments
appropriate, in the reasonable determination of the Borrower, to reflect any operating
expense reductions and other operating improvements or synergies projected in good faith to
result from any acquisition, amalgamation, merger or operational change (including, to the
extent applicable, from the Transactions); provided that (x) such operating expense
reductions and other operating improvements or synergies are reasonably identifiable and
factually supportable, (y) with respect to operational changes (not resulting from an
acquisition), such actions are taken or committed to be taken no later than 24 months after
the Effective Date and (z) the aggregate amount of projected
36
operating expense reductions, operating improvements and synergies in respect of
operational changes (not resulting from an acquisition) included in
any pro forma
calculation shall not exceed $20,000,000 for any four consecutive fiscal quarter period
unless otherwise approved by the Administrative Agent.
(iv) If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being given pro
forma effect, the interest on such Indebtedness shall be calculated as if the rate in
effect on the Calculation Date had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking
into account any Rate Management Obligations applicable to such Indebtedness). For purposes
of making the computation referred to above, interest on any Indebtedness under a revolving
credit facility computed on a pro forma basis shall be computed based upon the average
daily balance of such Indebtedness during the reference period. Interest on Indebtedness
that may optionally be determined at an interest rate based upon a factor of a prime or
similar rate, a eurocurrency interbank offered rate, or other rate, shall be deemed to have
been based upon the rate actually chosen, or, if none, then based upon such optional rate
as the Borrower may designate.
(v) Any Person that is a Borrower Subsidiary on the Calculation Date will be deemed to
have been a Borrower Subsidiary at all times during the reference period, and any Person
that is not a Borrower Subsidiary on the Calculation Date will be deemed not to have been a
Borrower Subsidiary at any time during the reference period.

agrees to perform all obligations as the borrower and primary obligor in respect thereof.
No amount of the Term A Loan which is repaid or prepaid by the Borrower may be reborrowed
hereunder.
(ii) Each Lender severally (and not jointly) agrees, on the terms and conditions set
forth in this Agreement, to make a Term B Loan to the Borrower on the Effective Date in the
amount of its respective Term B Loan Commitment. No amount of the Term B Loan which is
repaid or prepaid by the Borrower may be reborrowed hereunder. Not later than 1:00 p.m.,
New York City time, on the Effective Date, each Lender shall make available funds equal to
its Term B Loan Commitment in immediately available funds in Chicago to the Administrative
Agent at its address specified pursuant to Article XIII.
Section 2.2 Term Loan Repayment. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein,
the principal amount of the Term A Loan shall be paid in full by the Borrower on the Facility
37

Term B Loan shall be paid in full by the Borrower as follows:
(i) on each Payment Date from and including June 30, 2008 to and including December
31, 2012, the Borrower shall make an aggregate payment of $625,000; and
(ii) on the Facility Termination Date, the Borrower shall pay the entire remaining
unpaid principal amount of the Term B Loan.
Section 2.3 Revolving Credit Commitments. From and including the Effective Date and
prior to the Facility Termination Date, each Lender severally agrees, on the terms and conditions
set forth in this Agreement, to (i) make or continue Revolving Loans to the Borrower from time to
time and (ii) participate in Letters of Credit issued upon the request of the Borrower,
provided that, after giving effect to the making of each such Loan and the issuance of each
such Letter of Credit, such Lender’s Outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure shall not exceed in the
aggregate the amount of its Revolving Credit Commitment and the Aggregate Outstanding Revolving
Credit Exposure shall not exceed the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment. As of the Effective
Date each revolving loan made under the Existing Credit Agreement shall be continued as a Revolving
Loan hereunder and the Borrower accepts, assumes and agrees to perform all obligations as the
borrower and primary obligor in respect thereof. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the
Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow Revolving Loans, in whole or in part, at any time prior to
the Facility Termination Date. The Revolving Credit Commitments to extend credit hereunder shall
expire on the Facility Termination Date.
Section 2.4 Other Required Payments. All outstanding Revolving Loans, Swing Line
Loans, unreimbursed LC Disbursements and all other unpaid Obligations shall be paid in full by the
Borrower on the Facility Termination Date.
Section 2.5 Ratable Loans. Each Revolving Credit Advance hereunder shall consist of
Revolving Loans made from the several Revolving Lenders ratably according to their Pro Rata
Shares.
Section 2.6 Types of Advances. The Advances may be Floating Rate Advances or
Eurodollar Advances, or a combination thereof, selected by the Borrower in accordance with
Sections 2.11 and 2.12, or Swing Line Loans selected by the Borrower in accordance with Section
2.7.
Section 2.7 Swing Line Loans.
(i) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swing Line Lender agrees
to make Swing Line Loans to the Borrower from time to time from and including the Effective
Date and prior to the Facility Termination Date, in an aggregate principal amount at any
time outstanding that will not result in (i) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding
Swing Line Loans exceeding $25,000,000, (ii) the aggregate principal amount of the Swing
Line Lender’s outstanding Swing Line Loans exceeding its Swing Line Commitment, or (iii)
the sum of the Aggregate Outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding the Aggregate
Revolving Credit Commitment; provided that
38
the Swing Line Lender shall not be required to make a Swing Line Loan to refinance an outstanding
Swing Line Loan. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth
herein, the Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Swing Line Loans. The Borrower will repay in
full each Swing Line Loan on or before the fifth
(5th) Business Day after the Borrowing Date for
such Swing Line Loan.
(ii) To request a Swing Line Loan, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such
request by telephone or electronic mail (to such electronic mail addresses as the Administrative
Agent shall specify) (in each case confirmed by telecopy), not later than 1:00 p.m.,
New York City
time, on the day of a proposed Swing Line Loan. Each such notice (a “
Swing Line Borrowing
Notice”) shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business
Day) and amount of the requested Swing Line Loan, which shall be an amount not less than
$1,000,000. The Administrative Agent will promptly advise the Swing Line Lender of any such notice
received from the Borrower. The Swing Line Lender shall make each Swing Line Loan available to the
Borrower by means of a credit to a general deposit account of the Borrower with the Swing Line
Lender or wire transfer to an account designated by the Borrower (or, in the case of a Swing Line
Loan made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.22(v), by
remittance to the LC Issuer) by 3:00 p.m.,
New York City time, on the requested date of such Swing
Line Loan.
(iii)
The Swing Line Lender may (and shall on the fifth (5
th) Business Day after
the Borrowing Date of each Swing Line Loan made by it that is then still outstanding) by written
notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 10:00 a.m.,
New York City time, on any
Business Day require the Revolving Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all
or a portion of its Swing Line Loans outstanding. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount
of Swing Line Loans in which Revolving Lenders will participate. Promptly upon receipt of such
notice, the Administrative Agent will give notice thereof to each Revolving Lender, specifying in
such notice such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Swing Line Loan or Loans. Each Revolving Lender
hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to
the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swing Line Lender, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share
of such Swing Line Loan or Loans. Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its
obligation to acquire participations in Swing Line Loans pursuant to this paragraph is
unconditional, continuing, irrevocable and absolute and shall not be affected by any
circumstances, including, without limitation, (a) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or
other right which such Lender may have against the Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender or
any other Person, (b) the occurrence or continuance, prior to or after the funding of any Swing
Line Loan, of a Default or Unmatured Default, (c) any adverse change in the condition (financial
or otherwise) of the Borrower or (d) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, and
that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction
whatsoever. Each Revolving Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire
transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.11 with
respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Sections 2.11 and 2.21
shall apply,
mutatis
mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall
promptly pay to the
39
Swing Line Lender the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. The Administrative Agent
shall notify the Borrower of any participations in any Swing Line Loan acquired pursuant to
this paragraph. Any amounts received by the Swing Line Lender from the Borrower (or other
party on behalf of the Borrower) in respect of a Swing Line Loan after receipt by the Swing
Line Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted
to the Administrative Agent; any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be
promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders that shall have made their
payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the Swing Line Lender, as their interests may
appear; provided that any such payment so remitted shall be repaid to the Swing Line
Lender or to the Administrative Agent, as applicable, if and to the extent such payment is
required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. The purchase of participations in a
Swing Line Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the Borrower of any default in
the payment thereof.
Section 2.8
Commitment Fee; Reductions and Increases in Aggregate Revolving Credit
Commitment.
(i) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each
Revolving Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue at the rate of .50% per annum on the
daily amount of the difference between the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender and
the Outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure (excluding Swing Line Exposure) of such Lender
during the period from and including the date hereof to but excluding the date on which
such Revolving Credit Commitment terminates. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable in
arrears on the last day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date
on which the Revolving Credit Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to
occur after the date hereof. All commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year
of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first
day but excluding the last day).
(ii) The Borrower may permanently reduce the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment in
whole, or in part ratably among the Revolving Lenders in minimum amounts of $10,000,000 and
integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, upon at least three Business Days’
written notice to the Administrative Agent, which notice shall specify the amount of any
such reduction, provided, however, that the amount of the Aggregate
Revolving Credit Commitment may not be reduced below the Aggregate Outstanding Revolving
Credit Exposure and further provided that a notice of a reduction of the Aggregate
Revolving Credit Commitment delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is
conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice
may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the
specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. All accrued commitment fees
shall be payable on the effective date of any termination of the obligations of the Lenders
to make Credit Extensions hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall not
voluntarily reduce the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment unless at the time of such
reduction the Term B Balance is zero.
40
(iii) The Borrower may, at its option, on up to three occasions, seek to increase the
Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment and/or the Aggregate Term B Loan Commitment or aggregate Term
A Loans by up to an aggregate amount of $50,000,000 in a minimum amount of $10,000,000 and in
integral multiples of $5,000,000 in excess thereof, upon at least three (3) Business Days’ prior
written notice to the Administrative Agent, which notice shall specify the amount of any such
increase and whether such increase is in the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment, the Aggregate
Term B Loan Commitment, the Term A Loans or a combination of any thereof and shall be delivered at
a time when no Default or Unmatured Default has occurred and is continuing. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, no Term B Loan shall be permitted to be borrowed pursuant to this
clause (iii) if, after giving effect thereto, the Term B Balance would exceed $250,000,000. The
Borrower may, after giving such notice, offer the increase (which may be declined by any Lender in
its sole discretion) in the Commitments or Term A Loans on either a ratable basis to the Lenders or
on a non pro-rata basis to one or more Lenders and/or to other Lenders or entities reasonably
acceptable to the Administrative Agent. No increase in the Commitments or Term A Loans shall become
effective until the existing or new Lenders extending such incremental Revolving Credit Commitment,
Term B Loan Commitment or Term A Loans and the Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative
Agent a document in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent pursuant
to which each such existing Lender states the amount of its Commitment or Loan increase, each such
new Lender becomes a party hereto, states its Commitment or Loan amount and agrees to assume and
accept the obligations and rights of a Lender hereunder and the Borrower accepts such incremental
Commitments or Loans. In the event of an increase in the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment
pursuant to this Section, the Revolving Lenders (new or existing) shall accept an assignment from
the existing Revolving Lenders, and the existing Revolving Lenders shall make an assignment to the
new or existing Revolving Lender accepting a new or increased Revolving Credit Commitment, of an
interest in each then outstanding Revolving Credit Advance, Swing Line Loan, Letter of Credit and
LC Disbursement such that, after giving effect thereto, all Revolving Credit Advances, Swing Line
Loans, Letters of Credit and LC Disbursements are held ratably by the Revolving Lenders in
proportion to their respective Revolving Credit Commitments. Assignments pursuant to the preceding
sentence shall be made in exchange for the principal amount assigned plus accrued and unpaid
interest and shall not be subject to the assignment fee set forth in Section 12.1(ii)(B)(3). The
Borrower shall make any payments under Section 3.4 resulting from such assignments. In the event of
an increase in the Aggregate Term B Loan Commitment or Term A Loans pursuant to this Section, each
Lender accepting a portion of such increased Aggregate Term B Loan Commitment or Term A Loans
shall, on the effective date of the increase in such Aggregate Term B Loan Commitment or Term A
Loans, make a loan to the Borrower (which shall be deemed to be, as applicable, a “Term A Loan” or
a “Term B Loan” hereunder for all purposes hereof, including Section 2.24) in the amount of its
portion of such increase. Any such increase of the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment, Aggregate
Term B Loan Commitment or Term A Loans shall be subject to receipt by the Administrative Agent from
the Borrower of such supplemental opinions, resolutions, certificates and other documents as the
Administrative Agent may reasonably request.
41
Section 2.9 Minimum Amount of Each Advance. Each Eurodollar Advance (other than an
Advance to repay Swing Line Loans) shall be in the minimum amount of $5,000,000 (and in multiples
of $1,000,000 if in excess thereof), and each Floating Rate Advance (other than a Swing Line Loan)
shall be in the minimum amount of $5,000,000 (and in multiples of $1,000,000 if in excess thereof),
provided, however, that any Revolving Credit Advance which is a Floating Rate
Advance may be in the amount of the unused Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment.
Section 2.10 Optional and Mandatory Principal Payments.
(i) The Borrower may from time to time pay, without penalty or premium, all
outstanding Floating Rate Advances (other than Swing Line Loans), or, in a minimum
aggregate amount of $5,000,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof,
any portion of the outstanding Floating Rate Advances (other than Swing Line Loans) upon
one Business Day’s prior notice to the Administrative Agent. The Borrower may at any time
pay, without penalty or premium, all outstanding Swing Line Loans, or, in a minimum amount
of $1,000,000 and increments of $500,000 in excess thereof, any portion of the outstanding
Swing Line Loans, with notice to the Administrative Agent and the Swing Line Lender by
12:00 p.m.,
New York City time, on the date of repayment. The Borrower may from time to
time pay, subject to the payment of any funding indemnification amounts required by
Section 3.4 but without penalty or premium, all outstanding Eurodollar Advances, or, in a
minimum aggregate amount of $5,000,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess
thereof, any portion of the outstanding Eurodollar Advances upon three Business Days’
prior notice to the Administrative Agent. All voluntary principal payments in respect of
the Term B Loan shall be applied to the principal installments thereof in such order as
the Borrower may elect, or if not so specified on or prior to the date of such optional
prepayment, in the direct order of maturity. All mandatory principal payments in respect
of the Term B Loan shall be applied to the principal installments thereof under Section
2.2 in the direct order of maturity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall not voluntarily
prepay the Term A Loan unless at the time of such prepayment the Term B Balance is zero.
(ii) In the event and on each occasion that any Net Proceeds are received by or on
behalf of Holdco or any of its Subsidiaries in respect of any Prepayment Event, the
Borrower shall, within five Business Days after such Net Proceeds are received, prepay the
Term B Loan until paid in full; provided that in the case of any such event
described in clause (i) of the definition of the term “Prepayment Event,” if the Borrower
or any Subsidiary applies (or commits to apply) the Net Proceeds from such event (or a
portion thereof) within fifteen months after receipt of such Net Proceeds to pay all or a
portion of the purchase price in connection with an Acquisition permitted hereunder of a
Similar Business or to acquire, restore, replace, rebuild, develop, maintain or upgrade
real property, equipment or other capital assets useful or to be used in the business of
the Borrower and the Subsidiaries (and, in each case, the Borrower has delivered to the
Administrative Agent within five Business Days after such Net Proceeds are received a
certificate of its Financial Officer stating its intention to do so and certifying that no
Default has occurred and is continuing), then, so long as no Default has occurred and is
42
continuing at the time of the giving of such notice and at the time of the proposed
reinvestment, no prepayment shall be required pursuant to this paragraph in respect of the Net
Proceeds in respect of such event (or the portion of such Net Proceeds specified in such
certificate, if applicable) except to the extent of any such Net Proceeds therefrom that have not
been so applied (or committed to be so applied) by the end of such fifteen month period, (or if
committed to be so applied within such fifteen month period, have not been so applied within 180
days after such fifteen month period has expired). The Borrower shall provide to the Administrative
Agent any such evidence reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent with respect to any
commitment of the Borrower or any Subsidiary to apply Net Proceeds in accordance with this Section
2.10(ii). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if on any Business Day there exist “Net Proceeds” (as
defined in the Indenture) which (assuming no investment or application thereof is made within the
following five Business Days) would constitute “Excess Proceeds” (as defined in the Indenture) in
an amount in excess of $25,000,000 on such fifth following Business Day, then prior to such fifth
following Business Day the Borrower shall prepay the Term B Loan until paid in full in an aggregate
amount equal to such “Excess Proceeds” amount in excess of $25,000,000. Upon making such
prepayment, the Borrower shall be relieved of any further obligation under this Section 2.10(ii) to
make any prepayment with respect to such Net Proceeds.
(iii) Following the end of each fiscal year of the Borrower, commencing with the fiscal year
ending December 31, 2009, the Borrower shall prepay the Term B Loan in an aggregate amount equal to
the Excess Cash Flow for such fiscal year multiplied by 50%. Each prepayment pursuant to this
clause shall be made on or before the date that is five Business Days after the date on which
annual financial statements are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 6.1(i) with respect to
the fiscal year for which Excess Cash Flow is being calculated. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A)
no prepayment shall be required by this clause with respect to any fiscal year of the Borrower as
to which the Senior Secured Debt Ratio is less than 3.0 to 1.0 as of the end of such fiscal year
and (B) the amount required to be prepaid pursuant to this clause with respect to any fiscal year
shall be reduced dollar for dollar by the amount of (1) voluntary prepayments of Revolving Loans
which were accompanied by corresponding permanent reductions in the Aggregate Revolving Credit
Commitment, (2) all optional prepayments of the Term A Loan or Term B Loan, (3) mandatory
prepayments of the Term B Loan, in each case only to the extent that such prepayments, expenditures
or investments (x) were made by the Borrower or its Subsidiaries after the start of the applicable
fiscal year and prior to the due date for (or, if earlier, the actual payment date of) the
prepayment under this clause with respect to such fiscal year and (y) have not resulted in a
reduction of Excess Cash Flow or prepayments pursuant to this clause with respect to any prior
fiscal year and (C) no prepayment shall be required with respect to the portion of Excess Cash Flow
attributable to a Subsidiary that is required to maintain a minimum net worth or similar
requirement under applicable law, rule or regulation or by order, decree or power of any
Governmental Entity, to the extent (and only to the extent) that the payment of cash by such
Subsidiary to the Borrower in respect of such portion of Excess Cash Flow (by way of dividend,
intercompany loan or otherwise) would result in such Subsidiary’s failure to comply with such
requirement.
43
(iv) In the event that the Borrower or any Borrower Subsidiary desires to make any
Restricted Payment pursuant to Section 6.10(xi), the Borrower shall prepay the Term B Loan
with any Excess Specified Security Sale Proceeds in the amount of $50,000,000, such
prepayment to be made prior to any such Restricted Payment under Section 6.10(xi) (it being
understood that after the Borrower has prepaid the Term B Loan in the amount of $50,000,000
with Excess Specified Security Sale Proceeds, it shall have no further obligation to prepay
the Term B Loan under this clause (iv)).
(v) In the event and on each occasion that the Borrower or any Borrower Subsidiary
makes any Restricted Payment pursuant to Section 6.10(xi) in an amount which, when
aggregated with all other Restricted Payments made pursuant to Section 6.10(xi) after the
Effective Date, is greater than $62,500,000, the Borrower shall, on the date such
Restricted Payment is made, prepay the Term Loans in an amount equal to the amount of such
Restricted Payment or, if less, the portion thereof which resulted in such aggregate
Restricted Payment amount exceeding $62,500,000, which prepayment shall be applied to the
Term B Loan until paid in full and thereafter applied to the Term A Loan.
(vi) In the event of any voluntary or mandatory prepayment (other than pursuant to
Section 2.10(iv)) of the Term B Loan, on the date of prepayment the Borrower shall pay the
Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the holders of the Term B Loan a
prepayment premium in an amount equal to (A) 2% of the principal amount prepaid in the
case of a prepayment on or prior to the first anniversary of the Effective Date, (B) 1%
in the case of a prepayment after the first anniversary of the Effective Date but on or
prior to the second anniversary of the Effective Date and (C) 0% thereafter.
Section 2.11 Method of Selecting Types and Interest Periods for New Advances. The
Borrower shall select the Type of Advance and, in the case of each Eurodollar Advance, the
Interest Period applicable thereto from time to time. The Borrower shall give the Administrative
Agent irrevocable notice (a “Borrowing Notice”) not later than 12:00 noon, New York City
time, on the Borrowing Date of each Floating Rate Advance (other than a Swing Line Loan) and three
Business Days before the Borrowing Date for each Eurodollar Advance. Each such notice shall
specify:
(i) the Borrowing Date, which shall be a Business Day, of such Advance,
(ii) the aggregate amount of such Advance,
(iii)the Type of Advance
selected, and
(iv) in the case of each Eurodollar Advance, the Interest Period applicable thereto.
Not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on each Borrowing Date, each Lender shall make
available its Revolving Loan or Revolving Loans in funds immediately available in Chicago to the
Administrative Agent at its address specified pursuant to Article XIII. The Administrative Agent
will make the funds so received from the Lenders available to the Borrower in an account
designated in writing by the Borrower.
44
Section 2.12 Conversion and Continuation of Outstanding Advances. Floating Rate
Advances (other than Swing Line Loans) shall continue as Floating Rate Advances unless and until
such Floating Rate Advances are converted into Eurodollar Advances pursuant to this Section 2.12 or
are repaid in accordance with Section 2.10. Each Eurodollar Advance shall continue as a Eurodollar
Advance until the end of the then applicable Interest Period therefor, at which time such
Eurodollar Advance shall be automatically converted into a Floating Rate Advance unless (x) such
Eurodollar Advance is or was repaid in accordance with Section 2.10 or (y) the Borrower shall have
given the Administrative Agent a Conversion/Continuation Notice (as defined below) requesting that,
at the end of such Interest Period, such Eurodollar Advance continue as a Eurodollar Advance for
the same or another Interest Period. Subject to the terms of Section 2.9, the Borrower may elect
from time to time to convert all or any part of a Floating Rate Advance (other than Swing Line
Loans) into a Eurodollar Advance. The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable
notice (a “Conversion/Continuation Notice”) of each conversion of a Floating Rate Advance
into a Eurodollar Advance or continuation of a Eurodollar Advance not later than 2:00 p.m., New
York City time, at least three Business Days prior to the date of the requested conversion or
continuation, specifying:
(i) the requested date, which shall be a Business Day, of such conversion or
continuation,
(ii) the aggregate amount and Type of the Advance which is to be converted or
continued, and
(iii) the amount of such Advance which is to be converted into or continued as a
Eurodollar Advance and the duration of the Interest Period applicable thereto.
Section 2.13 Changes in Interest Rate, etc. Each Floating Rate Advance (other than
Swing Line Loans) shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day
from and including the date such Advance is made or is automatically converted from a Eurodollar
Advance into a Floating Rate Advance pursuant to Section 2.12, to but excluding the date it is
paid or is converted into a Eurodollar Advance pursuant to Section 2.12 hereof, at a rate per
annum equal to the Floating Rate plus the Applicable Margin for such day. Each Swing Line Loan
shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day from and including
the day such Swing Line Loan is made to but excluding the date it is paid hereof, at a rate per
annum equal to the Floating Rate plus the Applicable Margin for such day. Changes in the rate of
interest on that portion of any Advance maintained as a Floating Rate Advance will take effect
simultaneously with each change in the Alternate Base Rate. Each Eurodollar Advance shall bear
interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from and including the first day of the
Interest Period applicable thereto to (but not including) the last day of such Interest Period at
the interest rate determined by the Administrative Agent as applicable to such Eurodollar Advance
based upon the Borrower’s selections under Sections 2.11 and 2.12 and otherwise in accordance with
the terms hereof, plus the Applicable Margin. No Interest Period may end after the Facility
Termination Date. Interest on Loans outstanding on the Effective Date shall be calculated (x) for
periods up to and including the Effective Date at the rates set forth on the Pricing Schedule in
the Existing Credit Agreement and (y) for periods after the Effective Date at the rates set forth
in this Agreement.
45
Section 2.14 Rates Applicable After Default. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in Section 2.11, 2.12 or 2.13, during the continuance of a Default, the Required
Lenders may, at their option, by notice to the Borrower (which notice may be revoked at the option
of the Required Lenders notwithstanding any provision of Section 8.2 requiring unanimous consent of
the Lenders to changes in interest rates), declare that no Advance may be made as, converted into
or continued as a Eurodollar Advance. During the continuance of a Default under Section 7.2, unless
waived by the Required Lenders or until such defaulted amount shall have been paid in full, (i)
each overdue Eurodollar Advance shall bear interest for the remainder of the applicable Interest
Period at the rate otherwise applicable hereunder to such Interest Period plus 2% per annum and
(ii) each overdue Floating Rate Advance and all overdue fees and other overdue amounts payable
hereunder shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Floating Rate in effect from time to
time plus the Applicable Margin plus 2% per annum, in each case without any election or action on
the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender.
Section 2.15 Method of Payment. All payments of the Obligations hereunder shall be
made, without setoff, deduction, or counterclaim, in immediately available funds to the
Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s address specified pursuant to Article XIII, or
at any other Lending Installation of the Administrative Agent specified in writing by the
Administrative Agent to the Borrower, by noon (local time) on the date when due and shall (except
with respect to repayments of Swing Line Loans and except in the case of reimbursement obligations
with respect to LC Disbursements for which the LC Issuer has not been fully indemnified by the
Lenders, or as otherwise specifically required hereunder) be applied ratably by the Administrative
Agent among the applicable Lenders. Each payment delivered to the Administrative Agent for the
account of any Lender shall be delivered promptly by the Administrative Agent to such Lender in
the same type of funds that the Administrative Agent received at its address specified pursuant to
Article XIII or at any Lending Installation specified in a notice received by the Administrative
Agent from such Lender. Each reference to the Administrative Agent in this Section 2.15 shall also
be deemed to refer, and shall apply equally, to the LC Issuer, in the case of payments required to
be made by the Borrower to the LC Issuer pursuant to Section 2.22(v).
Section 2.16 Noteless Agreement; Evidence of Indebtedness, (i) Each Lender shall
maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness
of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender from time to time,
including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time
hereunder.
(i) The Administrative Agent shall also maintain the Register as set forth in Section
12.1(ii)(D).
(ii) The entries maintained in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraphs (i) and
(ii) above shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the Obligations
therein recorded absent manifest error; provided, however, that the failure
of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to maintain such accounts or any error therein
shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Obligations in
accordance with their terms.
46
(iii) Any Lender may request that its Loans be evidenced by a promissory note in
substantially the form of a Revolving Credit Note, a Term A Note, a Term B Note or a Swing
Line Note, in each case as applicable. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute
and deliver to such Lender such Note payable to the order of such Lender. Thereafter, the
Loans evidenced by such Note and interest thereon shall at all times (prior to any
assignment pursuant to Section 12.1) be represented by one or more Notes payable to the
order of the payee named therein, except to the extent that any such Lender subsequently
returns any such Note for cancellation and requests that such Loans once again be
evidenced as described in paragraphs (i) and (ii) above.
Section 2.17 Telephonic Notices. The Borrower hereby authorizes the Lenders and the
Administrative Agent to extend, convert or continue Advances, effect selections of Types of
Advances and to transfer funds based on telephonic notices made by any person or persons the
Administrative Agent or any Lender in good faith believes to be acting on behalf of the Borrower,
it being understood that the foregoing authorization is specifically intended to allow Borrowing
Notices and Conversion/Continuation Notices to be given telephonically. The Borrower agrees to
deliver promptly to the Administrative Agent a written confirmation, if such confirmation is
requested by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, of each telephonic notice signed by an
Authorized Officer. If the written confirmation differs in any material respect from the action
taken by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, the records of the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders shall govern absent manifest error.
Section 2.18 Interest Payment Dates; Interest and Fee Basis. Interest accrued on each
Floating Rate Advance shall be payable on each Payment Date, commencing with the first such date
to occur after the date hereof, on any date on which the Floating Rate Advance is prepaid, whether
due to acceleration or otherwise, and at maturity. Interest accrued on each Eurodollar Advance
shall be payable on the last day of its applicable Interest Period, on any date on which the
Eurodollar Advance is prepaid, whether by acceleration or otherwise, and at maturity. Interest
accrued on each Eurodollar Advance having an Interest Period longer than three months shall also
be payable on the last day of each three-month interval during such Interest Period. Interest on
Eurodollar Advances, commitment fees and LC Fees shall be calculated for actual days elapsed on
the basis of a 360-day year. Interest on Floating Rate Advances shall be calculated for actual
days elapsed on the basis of a 365/366-day year. Interest shall be payable for the day an Advance
is made but not for the day of any payment on the amount paid if payment is received prior to
noon, New York City time, at the place of payment. If any payment of principal of or interest on
an Advance or other amount hereunder shall become due on a day which is not a Business Day, such
payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of a principal payment,
such extension of time shall be included in computing interest in connection with such payment.
Section 2.19
Notification of Advances, Interest Rates, Prepayments and Revolving Credit
Commitment Reductions. Promptly after receipt thereof, the Administrative Agent will notify
each Lender of the contents of each Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment reduction notice,
Borrowing Notice, Swing Line Borrowing Notice, Conversion/Continuation Notice, and repayment
notice received by it hereunder. Promptly after notice from the LC Issuer, the Administrative
Agent will notify each Lender of the contents of each request for issuance of a Letter of Credit
hereunder. The Administrative Agent will notify each Lender of the interest rate
47
applicable to each Eurodollar Advance promptly upon determination of such interest rate and will
give each Lender prompt notice of each change in the Alternate Base Rate.
Section 2.20 Lending Installations. Each Lender may book its Loans and its
participation in any LC Exposure and the LC Issuer may book the Letters of Credit at any Lending
Installation selected by such Lender or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, and may change its
Lending Installation from time to time. All terms of this Agreement shall apply to any such
Lending Installation and the Loans, Letters of Credit, participations in LC Exposure and any Notes
issued hereunder shall be deemed held by each Lender or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, for the
benefit of any such Lending Installation. Each Lender and the LC Issuer may, by written notice to
the Administrative Agent and the Borrower in accordance with Article XIII, designate replacement
or additional Lending Installations through which Loans will be made by it or Letters of Credit
will be issued by it and for whose account Loan payments or payments with respect to Letters of
Credit are to be made.
Section 2.21 Non-Receipt of Funds by the Administrative Agent. Unless the Borrower or
a Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Administrative Agent prior to the date on which it is
scheduled to make payment to the Administrative Agent of (i) in the case of a Lender, the proceeds
of a Loan or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, a payment of principal, interest or fees to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, that it does not intend to make such payment,
the Administrative Agent may assume that such payment has been made. The Administrative Agent may,
but shall not be obligated to, make the amount of such payment available to the intended recipient
in reliance upon such assumption. If such Lender or the Borrower, as the case may be, has not in
fact made such payment to the Administrative Agent, the recipient of such payment shall, on demand
by the Administrative Agent, repay to the Administrative Agent the amount so made available
together with interest thereon in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date such
amount was so made available by the Administrative Agent until the date the Administrative Agent
recovers such amount at a rate per annum equal to (x) in the case of payment by a Lender, the
Federal Funds Effective Rate for such day for the first three days and, thereafter, the interest
rate applicable to the relevant Loan or (y) in the case of payment by the Borrower, the interest
rate applicable to the relevant Loan.
Section 2.22 Letters of Credit.
(i) General. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the
Borrower may request the issuance of Letters of Credit for its own account, in a form
reasonably acceptable to the applicable LC Issuer, at any time and from time to time from
and including the Effective Date and prior to the Facility Termination Date. In the event
of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and
conditions of any Letter of Credit Application or other agreement submitted by the Borrower
to, or entered into by the Borrower with, the LC Issuer relating to any Letter of Credit,
the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control.
(ii)
Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. To
request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an
outstanding Letter of Credit), the Borrower shall mail, hand deliver or telecopy (or
transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved
48
by the LC Issuer) to the LC Issuer and the Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of the
requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a notice requesting the issuance of a
Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and
specifying the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day),
the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (iii) of
this Section), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof
and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of
Credit. If requested by the LC Issuer, the Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit
application on the LC Issuer’s standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit.
A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon issuance,
amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall be deemed to represent
and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (x) the LC
Exposure shall not exceed $100,000,000 and (y) the Aggregate Outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure
shall not exceed the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment.
(iii) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of
business on the earlier of (x) the date one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of
Credit and (y) the Facility Termination Date; provided that any Letter of Credit with a one year
period may provide for the renewal thereof for additional one year periods but in no event shall
the date of such Letters of Credit extend beyond the period in clause (y) hereof.
(iv) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a
Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the
LC Issuer or the Lenders, the LC Issuer hereby grants to each Lender, and each Lender hereby
acquires from the LC Issuer, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Pro
Rata Share of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In
consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender hereby absolutely and
unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the LC Issuer, such
Lender’s Pro Rata Share of each LC Disbursement made by the LC Issuer and not reimbursed by the
Borrower on the date due as provided in paragraph (v) of this Section, or of any reimbursement
payment required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. Each Lender acknowledges and
agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of
Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance
whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the
occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that
each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction
whatsoever.
(v) Reimbursement. If the LC Issuer shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a
Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the
Administrative Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement not later than 12:00 noon, New York
City time, on the Business Day next following the date notice of such drawing is given to the
Borrower (any such notice received after 1:00 p.m.,
49
New York City time, shall be deemed received by the Borrower on the next Business Day);
provided that, the Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein,
request in accordance with Section 2.7 or 2.11 that such payment be financed with a Revolving
Credit Advance which is a Floating Rate Advance or Swing Line Loan in an equivalent amount and, to
the extent so financed, the Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and
replaced by the resulting Revolving Credit Advance or Swing Line Loan. If the Borrower fails to
reimburse an LC Disbursement when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the
applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrower in respect thereof and such
Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Lender shall pay
to the Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of the payment then due from the Borrower, in the
same manner as provided in Section 2.11 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Sections
2.11 and 2.21 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders),
and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the LC Issuer the amounts so received by it from
the Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the
Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the
LC Issuer or, to the extent that Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse
the LC Issuer, then to such Lenders and the LC Issuer as their interests may appear. Any payment
made by a Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the LC Issuer for any LC Disbursement
(other than the funding of a Revolving Credit Advance or a Swing Line Loan as contemplated above)
shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such
LC Disbursement.
(vi) Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as
provided in paragraph (v) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and
shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all
circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (A) any lack of validity or enforceability of any
Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (B) any draft or other
document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any
respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (C) payment by the LC
Issuer under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not
comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (D) any other event or circumstance whatsoever,
whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this
Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the
Borrower’s obligations hereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders nor the LC Issuer,
nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in
connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make
any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding
sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any
draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any
document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or
any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the LC Issuer; provided that the
foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the LC Issuer from liability to the Borrower to the
extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are
50
hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower
that are caused by the LC Issuer’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and
other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties
hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith,
in each case on the part of the LC Issuer, the LC Issuer shall be deemed to have exercised care in
each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality
thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to
be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the LC Issuer may, in its sole
discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further
investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and
make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of
such Letter of Credit.
(vii) Disbursement Procedures. The LC Issuer shall, promptly following its receipt
thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of
Credit. The LC Issuer shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower by telephone
(confirmed by telecopy) of such demand for payment and whether the LC Issuer has made or will make
an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such
notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse the LC Issuer and the Lenders
with respect to any such LC Disbursement.
(viii) Interim Interest. If the LC Issuer shall make any LC Disbursement, then,
unless the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement
is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date
such LC Disbursement is made (or, if notice of such LC Disbursement is given later than 1:00 p.m.,
New York City time, on the date of such LC Disbursement, then from and including the next Business
Day) to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the Floating
Rate plus the Applicable Margin; provided that, if the Borrower fails to reimburse such LC
Disbursement within five Business Days of the date when due pursuant to paragraph (v) of this
Section, then the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the
date when due to and including the date that the Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the
Floating Rate plus the Applicable Margin plus 2% per annum. Interest accrued pursuant to this
paragraph shall be for the account of the LC Issuer with respect to the applicable Letter of
Credit, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Lender pursuant to
paragraph (v) of this Section to reimburse such LC Issuer shall be for the account of such Lender
to the extent of such payment.
(ix) Replacement of the LC Issuer. An LC Issuer may be replaced at any time by
written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the successor LC Issuer. The
Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of an LC Issuer. At the time
any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for
the account of the replaced LC Issuer pursuant to paragraph (xi) of this Section. From and after
the effective date of any such replacement, (x) the successor LC Issuer shall have all the rights
and obligations of an LC Issuer under
51
this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (y) references herein
to the term “LC Issuer” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous LC Issuer,
or to such successor and all previous LC Issuers, as the context shall require. After the
replacement of an LC Issuer hereunder, the replaced LC Issuer shall remain a party hereto and
shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an LC Issuer under this Agreement with
respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to
issue additional Letters of Credit.
(x) Cash Collateralization. If any Default shall occur and be continuing, on the
Business Day that the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required
Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Lenders with LC Exposure
representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral
pursuant to this paragraph (which notice shall be delivered no earlier than the earlier of the
fifth Business Day of such Default continuing and the date of any acceleration of the Obligations
with respect to such Default), the Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Administrative
Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Revolving Lenders, an
amount in cash equal to the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest
thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become
effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or
other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Default with respect to the Borrower described
in Section 7.6 or 7.7. Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the
payment and performance of the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. The Administrative
Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over
such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments
shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the Borrower’s
risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such
investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the
Administrative Agent to reimburse the LC Issuer for LC Disbursements for which it has not been
reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the
reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of
the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Lenders with LC Exposure representing
greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure), be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Borrower
under this Agreement. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder
as a result of the occurrence of a Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid)
shall be returned to the Borrower within three Business Days after all Defaults have been cured or
waived.
(xi) Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay (A) to the Administrative Agent for the account
of each Revolving Lender a participation fee (the “LC Fee”) with respect to its
participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at a per annum rate equal to the
Applicable Margin then in effect with respect to Revolving Loans that are Eurodollar Loans on the
face amount of such Letters of Credit during the period from and including the Effective Date to
but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender’s Commitment terminates and the date on
which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, and (B) to each LC Issuer a fronting fee, which
shall accrue at the rate per
52
annum separately agreed upon (but no more than 0.125% per annum) between the Borrower and
such LC Issuer on the average daily amount of the LC Exposure with respect to Letters of
Credit issued by such LC Issuer (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed
LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding
the later of the date of termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments and the date on
which there ceases to be any LC Exposure, as well as such LC Issuer’s standard fees with
respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or
processing of drawings thereunder. LC Fees and fronting fees accrued through and including
the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable on the
third Business Day following such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur
after the Effective Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date
on which the Revolving Credit Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the
date on which the Revolving Credit Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any
other fees payable to the LC Issuers pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within 30
days after demand. All LC Fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year
of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first
day but excluding the last day).
(xii) Outstanding Letters of Credit. The letters of credit set forth on
Schedule 2.22 hereto (the “Outstanding Letters of Credit”) were issued or deemed
issued pursuant to the Existing Credit Agreement and remain outstanding as of the date of
this Agreement. The Borrower, the LC Issuer and each of the Revolving Lenders hereby agree
with respect to the Outstanding Letters of Credit that effective upon the Effective Date
(A) such Outstanding Letters of Credit shall be deemed to be Letters of Credit issued under
and governed in all respects by the terms and conditions of this Agreement and (B) each
Lender shall participate in each Outstanding Letter of Credit in an amount equal to its Pro
Rata Share of the face amount of such Outstanding Letter of Credit.
Section 2.23 Replacement of Lender. If (i) the Borrower is required pursuant to
Section 3.1, 3.2 or 3.5 to make any additional payment to any Lender, (ii) any Lender’s obligation
to make or continue, or to convert Floating Rate Advances into, Eurodollar Advances shall be
suspended pursuant to Section 3.3, (iii) any Lender shall default in its obligation to fund Loans
hereunder, (iv) any Lender shall become insolvent or the subject of a bankruptcy or insolvency
proceeding or (v) any Lender shall fail to consent to a departure or waiver of any provision of
the Loan Documents or fail to agree to any amendment thereto, which waiver, consent or amendment
requires the consent of all Lenders or of all Lenders directly affected thereby and has been
consented to by the Required Lenders (any Lender described in clause (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) or (v)
being an “Affected Lender”), the Borrower may (a) elect to replace such Affected Lender as
a Lender party to this Agreement; provided that the Borrower shall have such right only if
(A) concurrently with such replacement, (1) another bank or other entity (other than a
Disqualified Institution) which is reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent shall agree, as of such date, to purchase for cash the Loans and other Obligations due to
the Affected Lender pursuant to an assignment substantially in the form of Exhibit D and
to become a Lender for all purposes under this Agreement and to assume all obligations of the
Affected Lender to be terminated as of such date and to comply with the requirements of Section
12.1 applicable to assignments, and (2) the Borrower shall pay to such
53
Affected Lender in same day funds on the day of such replacement (x) all interest, fees and other
amounts then accrued but unpaid to such Affected Lender by the Borrower hereunder to and including
the date of termination, including without limitation payments due to such Affected Lender under
Sections 3.1, 3.2 and 3.5, and (y) an amount, if any, equal to the payment which would have been
due to such Lender on the day of such replacement under Section 3.4 had the Loans or other
Obligations of such Affected Lender been prepaid on such date rather than sold to the replacement
Lender, (B) in the case of clause (i) or (ii) above, such additional payments continue to be
required or such suspension is still effective and will be reduced or negated by such assignment
and (C) in the case of clause (iv) above, the applicable Assignee shall have agreed to the
applicable departure, waiver or amendment of the Loan Documents or (b) terminate all Commitments
of such Affected Lender and repay all Obligations of the Borrower owing to such Lender as of such
termination date (including any amounts owing pursuant to Section 3.4 as a result of such
repayment).
Section 2.24
Pro Rata Treatment; Intercreditor Agreements.
(i)
Except as provided below in this Section 2.24 and as required under Section 2.7,
2.10, 2.13, 3.1, 3.2, 3.4, 3.5 or 11.2, each Advance, each payment or prepayment of
principal of any Advance, each payment of interest on the Loans, each payment of the
commitment fee set forth in Section 2.8 and the LC Fee, each reduction of the Revolving
Credit Commitment and each conversion of any Advance to or continuation of any Advance as an
Advance of any Type shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders in accordance with their
respective applicable Commitments (or, if such Commitments shall have expired or been
terminated, in accordance with the respective principal amounts of their respective
applicable outstanding Loans).
(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any payment
or other distribution (whether from proceeds of Collateral or any other source, whether in
the form of cash, securities or otherwise, and whether made by any Loan Party or in
connection with any exercise of remedies by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent
or any Lender) made or applied in respect of any of the Obligations (a) following any
acceleration of the Obligations, (b) during the existence of a Default under Section 7.2 or
(c) during or in connection with Insolvency Proceedings involving any Loan Party (or any
plan of liquidation, distribution or reorganization in connection therewith), shall be made
or applied, as the case may be, in the following order of priority (with higher priority
Obligations to be paid in full prior to any payment or other distribution in respect of
lower priority Obligations): (i) first, to payment of that portion of the Obligations
constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts, including attorney fees,
payable to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such, the LC Issuer in its capacity
as such and the Collateral Agent in its capacity as such (ratably among the Administrative
Agent, the LC Issuer and the Collateral Agent in proportion to the respective amounts
described in this clause first payable to them); (ii) second, to payment of that
portion of the Obligations constituting indemnities and other amounts (other than
principal, interest and fees) payable to the Lenders, including attorney fees (ratably
among such Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause
second payable to them); (iii) third, to payment of that portion of the
Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid interest (including any default interest) on
the Term B
54
Loans and any Replacement Term B Loans (ratably among such Lenders in proportion to the
respective amounts described in this clause third payable to them), including interest
accruing after the filing or commencement of any Insolvency Proceedings in respect of any Loan
Party, whether or not any claim for post-filing or post-petition interest is or would be allowed,
allowable or otherwise enforceable in any such Insolvency Proceedings; (iv) fourth, to
payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Term B Loans and
any Replacement Term B Loans (ratably among such Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts
described in this clause fourth held by them); (v) fifth, to payment of that portion of the
Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid fees or interest (including any default interest) on or
relating to the Revolving Loans, Term A Loans, Swing Line Loans and LC Exposure (ratably among such
Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause fifth payable to
them), including interest accruing after the filing or commencement of Insolvency Proceedings in
respect of any Loan Party, whether or not any claim for post-filing or post-petition interest is or
would be allowed, allowable or otherwise enforceable in any such Insolvency Proceedings; (vi) sixth, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Revolving
Loans, Term A Loans, Swing Line Loans and LC Exposure (including any termination payments and any
accrued and unpaid interest thereon) (ratably among such Lenders in proportion to the respective
amounts described in this clause sixth held by them) and amounts constituting Rate
Management Obligations (but only to the extent such Rate Management Obligations are secured by the
Collateral and the source of the applicable payment is Collateral proceeds); (vii) seventh
on or after (A) the Facility Termination Date, (B) the occurrence of any Default with respect
to any Loan Party described in Section 7.6 or 7.7 or (C) the declaration by the Administrative
Agent or the Required Lenders that the Loans are due and payable pursuant to Article VII, to pay an
amount to the Administrative Agent for the account of the LC Issuer equal to one hundred one
percent (101%) of the aggregate undrawn face amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit and the
aggregate amount of any unpaid LC Disbursements to be held as cash collateral; (viii)
eighth, to payment of any other Obligations due to the Administrative Agent or any Lender
by the Borrower, ratably; and (ix) last, in the case of proceeds of Collateral, the
balance, if any, thereof, after all of the Obligations (including, without limitation, all
Obligations in respect of LC Exposure but excluding any contingent obligations) have been paid in
full, to the Borrower or as otherwise required by a court of competent jurisdiction. Each Lender
agrees that the provisions of this Section 2.24 (including, without limitation, the priority of the
Obligations as set forth herein) constitute an intercreditor agreement among them for value
received that is independent of any value received from the Loan Parties, and that such agreement
shall be enforceable as against each Lender, including, without limitation, in any Insolvency
Proceedings in respect of any Loan Party (including without limitation with respect to interests
and costs regardless of whether or not such interest or costs are allowed as a claim in any such
Insolvency Proceedings or enforceable or recoverable against the Loan Party or its bankruptcy
estate), to the same extent that such agreement is enforceable under applicable non-bankruptcy law
(including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 510(a) of the U.S. federal Bankruptcy Code or
any comparable provision of applicable insolvency law), and that, if any Lender receives any
payment or distribution in respect of any Obligation (including, without limitation, in
55
connection with any Insolvency Proceedings or any plan of liquidation, distribution or
reorganization therein) to which such Lender is not entitled in accordance with the
priorities set forth in this Section 2.24, such amount shall be held in trust by such
Lender for the benefit of the Person or Persons entitled to such payment or distribution
hereunder, and promptly shall be turned over by such Lender to the Administrative Agent
for distribution to the Person or Persons entitled to such payment or distribution in
accordance with this Section 2.24.
(iii) In the event there is any Disgorged Recovery in respect of any Lender’s Revolving
Loans, Term Loans, Swing Line Loans or LC Exposure in any Insolvency Proceedings of any Loan
Party, such Revolving Loans, Term Loans, Swing Line Loans and LC Exposure shall be deemed to
be outstanding as if such Disgorged Recovery had never been received by such Lender, and
each Lender agrees that the intercreditor agreements and priorities set forth in this
Section 2.24 shall be enforced in accordance with their terms in respect of such Revolving
Loans, Term Loans, Swing Line Loans or LC Exposure, including, without limitation, for
purposes of the allocation of payments and distributions made or applied in respect of the
Obligations (whether from proceeds of Collateral or otherwise), as well as for purposes of
determining whether such other Lender must turn over all or any portion of any payment or
other distribution received by such other Lender (whether before or after occurrence of such
Disgorged Recovery) to the Administrative Agent for redistribution in accordance with the
last sentence of Section 2.24(ii).
ARTICLE III
YIELD PROTECTION; TAXES
Section 3.1 Yield Protection. If, after the date of this Agreement (or, in the case
of any assignee, after the date it became a party to this Agreement), the adoption of any law or
any governmental or quasi-governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline or directive (whether
or not having the force of law), or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by
any governmental or quasi-governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with
the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender or applicable Lending
Installation or any LC Issuer with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of
law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency:
(i) imposes or increases or deems applicable any reserve, assessment, insurance
charge, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the
account of, or credit extended by, any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation (other
than reserves and assessments taken into account in determining the interest rate
applicable to Eurodollar Advances), or
(ii) imposes any other condition the result of which is to increase the cost to any
Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or any LC Issuer of making, funding or
maintaining its Eurodollar Loans, or of issuing or participating in Letters of Credit, or
reduces any amount receivable by any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation in
connection with its Eurodollar Loans, Letters of Credit or participations therein, or
56
requires any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or any LC Issuer to make any
payment calculated by reference to the amount of Eurodollar Loans, Letters of Credit or
participations therein held or interest or LC Fees received by it, in each case by an
amount deemed material by such Lender or such LC Issuer as the case may be,
and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender or applicable
Lending Installation or such LC Issuer, as the case may be, of making or maintaining its
Eurodollar Loans or Commitment or of issuing or participating in Letters of Credit or to reduce
the return received by such Lender or applicable Lending Installation or such LC Issuer, as the
case may be, in connection with such Eurodollar Loans, Commitment, Letters of Credit or
participations therein, then, within 30 days of written demand by such Lender or such LC Issuer,
as the case may be, the Borrower shall pay such Lender or such LC Issuer, as the case may be, such
additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such LC Issuer, as the case may be,
for such increased cost or reduction in amount received. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this
Section 3.1 shall not apply to any tax-related matters.
Section 3.2 Changes in Capital Adequacy Regulations. If a Lender or an LC Issuer
determines the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender, any Lending
Installation of such Lender or such LC Issuer, or any corporation controlling such Lender or such
LC Issuer is increased as a result of a Change, then, within 30 days of written demand by such
Lender or such LC Issuer, the Borrower shall pay such Lender or such LC Issuer the amount necessary
to compensate for any shortfall in the rate of return on the portion of such increased capital
which such Lender or such LC Issuer determines is attributable to this Agreement, its Outstanding
Credit Exposure or its Commitment to make Loans and issue or participate in Letters of Credit, as
the case may be, hereunder (after taking into account such Lender’s or such LC Issuer’s policies as
to capital adequacy). “Change” means (i) any change after the date of this Agreement in the
Risk-Based Capital Guidelines, or (ii) any adoption of or change in any other law, governmental or
quasi-governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline, interpretation, or directive (whether or
not having the force of law) after the date of this Agreement which affects the amount of capital
required or expected to be maintained by any Lender or any LC Issuer or any Lending Installation or
any corporation controlling any Lender or any LC Issuer. “Risk-Based Capital Guidelines” means (i)
the risk-based capital guidelines in effect in the United States on the date of this Agreement,
including transition rules, and (ii) the corresponding capital regulations promulgated by
regulatory authorities outside the United States implementing the July 1988 report of the Basel
Committee on Banking Regulation and Supervisory Practices Entitled “International Convergence of
Capital Measurements and Capital Standards,” including transition rules, and any amendments to such
regulations adopted prior to the date of this Agreement.
Section 3.3 Availability of Types of Advances. If any Lender determines that
maintenance of its Eurodollar Loans at a suitable Lending Installation would violate any
applicable law, rule, regulation, or directive, whether or not having the force of law, or if the
Required Lenders determine that (i) deposits of a type and maturity appropriate to match fund
Eurodollar Advances are not available or (ii) the interest rate applicable to Eurodollar Advances
does not accurately reflect the cost of making or maintaining Eurodollar Advances, then the
Administrative Agent shall suspend the availability of Eurodollar Advances and require any
57
affected Eurodollar Advances to be repaid or converted to Floating Rate Advances, subject to the
payment of any funding indemnification amounts required by Section 3.4.
Section 3.4 Funding Indemnification. If any payment of a Eurodollar Advance occurs on
a date which is not the last day of the applicable Interest Period, whether because of
acceleration, prepayment or otherwise, or a Eurodollar Advance is not made on the date specified by
the Borrower for any reason other than default by the Lenders, the Borrower will indemnify each
Lender for any loss or cost incurred by it resulting therefrom, including, without limitation, any
loss or cost in liquidating or employing deposits acquired to fund or maintain such Eurodollar
Advance.
Section 3.5 Taxes.
(i) All payments by the Borrower to or for the account of any Lender, any LC Issuer or
the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any Note or Letter of Credit Application shall
be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all Taxes. If the Borrower
shall be required by law to deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in respect of any sum
payable hereunder to any Lender, any LC Issuer or the Administrative Agent, (A) the sum
payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions or
withholdings (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section
3.5) such Lender, such LC Issuer or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) receives
an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings
been made, (B) the Borrower shall make such deductions or withholdings, (C) the Borrower
shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant authority in accordance with
applicable law and (D) the Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent the original
or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof within 30 days after such
payment is made.
(ii) In addition, the Borrower hereby agrees to pay any present or future stamp or
documentary taxes and any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies which
arise from any payment made hereunder or under any Loan Document or from the execution or
delivery of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any Loan Document (“Other
Taxes”).
(iii) The Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent, such LC Issuer
and each Lender for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation,
any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed on amounts payable under this Section 3.5) paid by the
Administrative Agent, such LC Issuer or such Lender as a result of its Commitment, any
Loans made by it hereunder, or otherwise in connection with its participation in this
Agreement and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom
or with respect thereto. Payments due under this indemnification shall be made within 30
days of the date the Administrative Agent, such LC Issuer or such Lender makes written
demand therefor pursuant to Section 3.6.
(iv) Each Lender and LC Issuer that is not incorporated under the laws of the United
States of America, a state thereof or the District of Columbia (each a “Non-U.S.
Lender”) agrees that it will, on or before the date that it becomes party to this
Agreement,
58
(A) deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two duly completed copies of United
States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI, certifying in either case that such Non-U.S.
Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement without deduction or withholding of any
United States federal income taxes, and (B) deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a
United States Internal Revenue Form W-8 and certify that it is entitled to an exemption from United
States backup withholding tax. Each Non-U.S. Lender further undertakes to deliver to each of the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent (x) renewals or additional copies of such form (or any
successor form) on or before the date that such form expires or becomes obsolete or upon the
reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, and (y) after the occurrence of any
event requiring a change in the most recent forms so delivered by it, such additional forms or
amendments thereto. All forms or amendments described in the preceding sentence shall certify that
such Non-U.S. Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement without deduction or
withholding of any United States federal income taxes, unless an event (including without
limitation any change in treaty, law or regulation) has occurred prior to the date on which any
such delivery would otherwise be required which renders all such forms inapplicable or which would
prevent such Non-U.S. Lender from duly completing and delivering any such form or amendment with
respect to it and such Non-U.S. Lender advises the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that it is
not capable of receiving payments without any deduction or withholding of United States federal
income tax.
(v) Each Lender and LC Issuer that is incorporated under the laws of the United States of
America, a state thereof or the District of Columbia (each a “U.S. Lender”) agrees that it will,
on or before the date that it becomes a party to this Agreement, deliver to the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent two duly completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-9,
certifying that it is entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax. Each
U.S. Lender further undertakes to deliver to each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (x)
renewals or additional copies of such form (or any successor form) on or before the date that such
form expires or becomes obsolete or upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent, and (y) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most
recent forms so delivered by it, such additional forms or amendments thereto. All forms or
amendments described in the preceding sentence shall certify that such U.S. Lender is entitled to
receive payments under this Agreement without deduction or withholding of any United States
federal income taxes, unless an event (including without limitation any change in treaty, law or
regulation) has occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be required
which renders all such forms inapplicable or which would prevent such U.S. Lender from duly
completing and delivering any such form or amendment with respect to it and such U.S. Lender
advises the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that it is not capable of receiving payments
without any deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax.
(vi) For any period during which a Lender or LC Issuer has failed to provide the Borrower
with an appropriate form pursuant to clause (iv) or (v) of this Section 3.5 (unless such failure
is due to a change in treaty, law or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or
administration thereof by any governmental authority, occurring
59
subsequent to the date on which a form originally was required to be provided), such Lender or LC
Issuer shall not be entitled to indemnification or gross-up under this Section 3.5 with respect to
Taxes imposed by the United States; provided that, should a Lender or LC Issuer that is
otherwise exempt from or subject to a reduced rate of withholding tax become subject to Taxes
because of its failure to deliver a form required under clause (iv) or (v) of this Section 3.5, the
Borrower shall take such steps at such Lender’s or LC Issuer’s expense as such Lender or LC Issuer
shall reasonably request to assist such Lender or LC Issuer to recover such Taxes.
(vii) Any Lender or LC Issuer that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of
withholding tax with respect to payments under this Agreement or any Note pursuant to the law of
any relevant jurisdiction or any treaty shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law, such properly completed
and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made
without withholding or at a reduced rate.
(viii) If the U.S. Internal Revenue Service or any other governmental authority of the United
States or any other country or any political subdivision thereof asserts a claim that the
Administrative Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any
Lender (because the appropriate form was not delivered or properly completed, because such Lender
failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstances which rendered its
exemption from withholding ineffective, or for any other reason), such Lender shall indemnify the
Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative
Agent as tax, withholding therefor, or otherwise, including penalties and interest, and including
taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable to the Administrative Agent under this
subsection, together with all costs and expenses related thereto (including attorneys fees and
time charges of attorneys for the Administrative Agent, which attorneys may be employees of the
Administrative Agent). The obligations of the Lenders under this Section 3.5(vii) shall survive
the payment of the Obligations and termination of this Agreement.
(ix) If a Lender or LC Issuer determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a
refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with
respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.5, it shall
pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments
made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 3.5 with respect to the Taxes
or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Lender or LC
Issuer and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Entity with
respect to such refund), provided that (i) the Borrower, upon the request of the Lender or LC
Issuer, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or
other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Entity) to the Lender or LC Issuer in the event
the Lender or LC Issuer is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Entity and (ii)
nothing herein contained shall interfere with the right of a Lender or LC Issuer to arrange its
tax affairs in whatever manner it thinks fit nor oblige any Lender or LC Issuer to claim any tax
refund or to make available its tax returns or disclose any information relating to its tax
affairs or any computations in respect thereof or require any
60
Lender or LC Issuer to do anything that would prejudice its ability to benefit from
any other refunds, credits, reliefs, remissions or repayments to which it may be entitled.
Section 3.6 Lender Statements; Survival of Indemnity. To the extent reasonably
possible, each Lender shall designate an alternate Lending Installation to reduce any liability of
the Borrower to such Lender under Sections 3.1, 3.2 and 3.5 or to avoid the unavailability of
Eurodollar Advances under Section 3.3, so long as such designation is not, in the commercially
reasonable judgment of such Lender, materially disadvantageous to such Lender. Each Lender shall
deliver a written statement of such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative
Agent) as to the amount due, if any, under Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.4 or 3.5. Such written statement
shall set forth in reasonable detail the calculations upon which such Lender determined such amount
and shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Borrower in the absence of manifest error.
Determination of amounts payable under Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.4 or 3.5 in connection with a
Eurodollar Loan shall be calculated as though each Lender funded its Eurodollar Loan through the
purchase of a deposit of the type and maturity corresponding to the deposit used as a reference in
determining the Eurodollar Rate applicable to such Loan, whether in fact that is the case or not.
Unless otherwise provided herein, the amount specified in the written statement of any Lender shall
be payable on demand after receipt by the Borrower of such written statement. The Borrower shall
not be required to indemnify any Lender pursuant to Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.4 or 3.5 for any amounts
paid or losses incurred by such Lender as to which such Lender has not made demand hereunder within
120 days after the date such Lender has actual knowledge of such amounts or losses and their
applicability to the lending transactions contemplated hereby. The obligations of the Borrower
under Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.4 and 3.5 shall survive payment of the Obligations and termination of
this Agreement.

ARTICLE V
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
The Borrower and Holdco represent and warrant to the Lenders that:
Section 5.1 Existence and Standing. Each of the Borrower, Holdco and its Material
Domestic Subsidiaries is a corporation, partnership, trust or limited liability company duly and
properly incorporated or organized, as the case may be, and validly existing, duly qualified or
licensed to do business and (to the extent such concept applies to such entity) in good standing
under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation or organization and has all requisite
authority to conduct its business in each jurisdiction in which its business is conducted in each
case (other than as to the valid existence of the Borrower), except where, individually or in the
aggregate, the failure to exist, qualify, be licensed or be in good standing or have such power
and authority could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.
Section 5.2 Authorization and Validity. Each of the Borrower, Holdco and its Material
Domestic Subsidiaries has the power and authority and legal right to execute and deliver the Loan
Documents to which it is a party and to perform its obligations thereunder. The execution and
delivery by each of the Borrower, Holdco and its Material Domestic Subsidiaries
65
of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and the performance of its obligations thereunder
have been duly authorized by proper corporate or other organizational proceedings, and the Loan
Documents to which each of the Borrower, Holdco and its Material Domestic Subsidiaries is a party
constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of each of the Borrower, Holdco and its Material
Domestic Subsidiaries enforceable against each of the Borrower, Holdco and its Material Domestic
Subsidiaries in accordance with their terms, except as enforceability may be limited by
bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally or
by general equitable principles. Except for the shareholder approval set forth in Section 4.1(g)
of the Equity Purchase Agreement, no stockholder vote of the Borrower, Holdco or any Subsidiary is
required to authorize, approve or consummate any of the Transactions.
Section 5.3 No Conflict; Government Consent. Neither the execution and delivery by any
Loan Party of the Loan Documents to which it is a party, nor the consummation of the transactions
therein contemplated, nor compliance with the provisions thereof will violate (i) any applicable
law, rule, regulation, ruling, order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree or award binding on Holdco
or any of its Subsidiaries or any Property of such Person or (ii) Holdco’s or any Material Domestic
Subsidiary’s articles or certificate of incorporation, partnership agreement, certificate of
partnership, articles or certificate of organization, by-laws, or operating or other management
agreement, or substantially equivalent governing document, as the case may be, or (iii) the
provisions of any note, bond, mortgage, deed of trust, license, lease indenture, instrument,
agreement or other obligation (each a “Contract”) to which Holdco or any Subsidiary is a
party or is subject, or by which it, or its Property, is bound, or conflict with, result in a
breach of any provision thereof or constitute a default thereunder (or result in an event which,
with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a default thereunder), or result in the
termination of, or accelerate the performance required by, or result in a right of termination or
acceleration of, or (except for the Liens created by the Loan Documents and the Second Lien
Documents, Permitted Liens and Permitted Holdco Liens) result in, or require, the creation or
imposition of any Lien in, of or on the Property of Holdco or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to
the terms of any such note, bond, mortgage, deed of trust, license, lease indenture, instrument,
agreement or other obligation, except with respect to clauses (i) or (iii), to the extent,
individually or in the aggregate, that such violation, conflict, breach, default or creation or
imposition of any lien could not reasonably be expect to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No
order, consent, adjudication, approval, license, authorization, or validation of, or filing,
recording or registration with, or exemption by, or other action in respect of any governmental or
public body or authority, or any subdivision thereof, which has not been obtained by Holdco or any
of its Material Domestic Subsidiaries, is required to be obtained by Holdco or any Material
Domestic Subsidiary in connection with the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, the
borrowings under this Agreement, the payment and performance by the Borrower of the Obligations or
the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability of any of the Loan Documents.

described in clauses (i) through (xx) above.
Accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value and the payment of interest or dividends
in the form of additional Indebtedness will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness for
purposes of this Section 6.11.
81
For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the
incurrence of Indebtedness, the U.S. dollar-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness
denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate
in effect on the date such Indebtedness was incurred, in the case of term debt, or first
committed, in the case of revolving credit debt; provided that if such Indebtedness is incurred to
refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause
the applicable U.S. dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant
currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such U.S. dollar-denominated
restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such
Refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being
refinanced.
The principal amount of any Indebtedness incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, if incurred
in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the
currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such respective Indebtedness is
denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing.

other arrangement which directly or indirectly prohibits or restrains, or has the effect of

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 6.19, if (i) the Borrower fails
to comply with the requirements of Section 6.19.1 or 6.19.2 as of the end of any fiscal quarter and
(ii) at any time during such fiscal quarter or thereafter until the date that is 20 days after the
date the Borrower is required to deliver financial statements with respect to such period pursuant
to Section 6.1, the Borrower receives a cash contribution to its equity capital in exchange for
common shares of its Capital Stock and gives written notice to the Administrative Agent that such
cash contribution has been received and is a Specified Equity Contribution (any amount so
identified, a “Specified Equity Contribution”), then the amount of such Specified Equity
Contribution will be deemed to be an increase to Consolidated EBITDA solely for the purposes of
determining compliance with Sections 6.19.1 and 6.19.2 at the end of such fiscal quarter (and for
purposes of determining compliance with future periods that include such fiscal quarter) (but such
Specified Equity Contribution shall not be included for purposes of determining the Basket Amount
or other purposes hereunder); provided that (1) in each four fiscal quarter period, there shall be
a period of at least two fiscal quarters in respect of which no Specified Equity Contribution is
made and (2) the amount of any Specified Equity Contribution shall be no greater than the amount
required to cause the Borrower to be in compliance with Sections 6.19.1 and 6.19.2. If after giving
effect to the foregoing recalculations the Borrower shall be in compliance with the requirements of
Sections 6.19.1 and 6.19.2, the Borrower shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements of such
covenants as of the relevant date of determination with the same effect as though there had been no
failure to comply therewith at such date, and the applicable Default in respect of such covenant
that had occurred shall be deemed cured for this purposes of this Agreement. From the date on which
the Borrower gives the Administrative Agent written notice of a Specified Equity Contribution with
respect to a fiscal period until the
20th day after financial statements are required to be
delivered pursuant to Section 6.1 for such fiscal period, none of the Administrative Agent, the
Collateral Agent, any Lender or any Secured Party shall exercise any rights or remedies with
respect to a breach of Section 6.19.1 or 6.19.2 with respect to such fiscal period, but any such
breach shall not be deemed waived for purposes of Section 4.2 until such Specified Equity
Contribution is received by the Borrower.
Section 6.20 Minimum Liquidity Ratio. The Borrower and the Borrower Subsidiaries
shall maintain at all times on a consolidated basis a Minimum Liquidity Ratio of at least 1.00 to
1.00.
Section 6.21 Subsidiary Guarantees. On or before the later of (i) 30 days following
the occurrence of the following events or (ii) the first date required for delivery of the
financial statements pursuant to Section 6.1 (i) or (ii) after the occurrence of the following
events (or such longer period as the Administrative Agent may agree), the Borrower shall cause an
Authorized Officer of a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary that has become a Material Domestic Subsidiary to
execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders a guaranty of the
Obligations pursuant to a guaranty substantially similar to the Guaranty (or a joinder agreement
under the Guaranty), all pursuant to documentation (including related certificates, opinions)
reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent. The Borrower shall promptly notify the
Administrative Agent at which time any Authorized Officer becomes aware that a Wholly-Owned
Subsidiary has become a Material Domestic Subsidiary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, substantially
contemporaneously with any Subsidiary becoming a “Guarantor” (as defined in the Indenture), the
Borrower shall cause such Subsidiary to become a Guarantor hereunder pursuant to documentation as
described above.
96
Section 6.22 Collateral. Effective upon any Subsidiary becoming a Guarantor after the
date hereof, the Borrower shall cause such Guarantor within fifteen Business Days after becoming a
Guarantor (or such later date as the Administrative Agent may agree) to grant to the Collateral
Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties a first (subject to Permitted Liens) priority security
interest in all assets (including real property and the Capital Stock of its Subsidiaries) of such
Guarantor pursuant to documentation (including related certificates and opinions) reasonably
acceptable to the Administrative Agent. The Borrower will, and will cause each of the Guarantors
to, at the expense of the Borrower, make, execute, endorse, acknowledge, file and/or deliver to the
Administrative Agent from time to time such schedules, confirmatory assignments, conveyances,
financing statements, transfer endorsements, powers of attorney, certificates, reports and other
assurances or instruments and take such further steps relating to the Collateral as the
Administrative Agent may reasonably require. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, (i) neither the
Borrower nor any Guarantor shall be obligated hereby to grant a security interest in any asset if
the granting of such security interest would result in the violation of any applicable law or
regulation, (ii) the Collateral shall not include a security interest in any asset if the granting
of such security interest would be prohibited by enforceable anti-assignment provisions of
contracts or applicable law (after giving effect to relevant provisions of the Uniform Commercial
Code), (iii) fee-owned real property having an individual fair market value of less than $2,500,000
or aggregate fair market value of less than $10,000,000 shall be excluded from the Collateral, (iv)
the Collateral shall not include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable or Portfolio
Securities, or deposit or security accounts (except to the extent that the foregoing are proceeds
of Collateral; provided, that in no event shall any control agreements be required) containing any
of the foregoing, other assets requiring perfection through control agreements, letter-of-credit
rights, leasehold real property, motor vehicles and other assets subject to certificates of title
(other than any corporate aircraft), interests in certain joint ventures and non-Wholly-Owned
Subsidiaries which cannot be pledged without the consent of one or more third parties and
obligations the interest on which is wholly exempt from the taxes imposed by subtitle A of the
Code, (v) the pledge of the Capital Stock of Foreign Subsidiaries shall be limited to 65% of the
Capital Stock of material first-tier Foreign Subsidiaries, (vi) the Administrative Agent shall have
the discretion to exclude from the Collateral immaterial assets, assets as to which it and the
Borrower determine that the cost of obtaining such security interest would outweigh the benefit to
the Lenders and other assets in which it may determine that the taking of a security interest would
not be advisable, and (vii) no foreign law security or pledge agreements shall be required.
Section 6.23 Holdco Covenant. Holdco shall not, nor shall it permit any of its
Subsidiaries (other than the Borrower and any of its Subsidiaries) to, engage in any activity or
suffer to have any condition outstanding that would violate the Passive Holding Company Condition.

Material Indebtedness Agreement, or any other event shall occur or condition exist, the effect of
which default, event or condition is to cause, or to permit the holder(s) of such Material
Indebtedness or the lender(s) under any Material Indebtedness Agreement to cause, such Material
Indebtedness to become due prior to its stated maturity; or any Material Indebtedness of Holdco or

99
or the Borrower and its Subsidiaries requited to be delivered to the Lenders under this Agreement
(such financial statements so restated, the “Restated Financial Statements”) as a result

prior to the Effective Date, related to the investment portfolio of Holdco and its Subsidiaries or
(y) the February 11, 2008 SEC non-public inquiry to Holdco shall in no event constitute a Default
or Unmatured Default under this Agreement; provided, however, that (A) the Borrower
furnishes to the Lenders the Restated Financial Statements promptly after the public filing thereof
(and in the case of Restated Financial Statements of the Borrower, promptly after public filing of

restatement, normal year-end adjustments and the absence of footnotes) fairly presenting, in all
material respects, the consolidated financial condition and operations at such date and the
consolidated results of operations for the period then ended, in each case of Holdco and its
Subsidiaries or the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, as applicable (it being understood that neither
(x) the fact that such certification is subject to such adjustments for any pending restatement nor
(y) any failure, as a result of such adjustments for any pending restatement, of such internal
unaudited financial statements to fairly present, in all material respects, such consolidated
financial condition and operations and consolidated results of operations shall constitute a
Default or Unmatured Default under this Agreement or any other Loan Document), and (3) within one
year of the date an audit report would be due under Section 6.1(i) with respect to Subsequent
Financial Statements for any fiscal year, the Borrower delivers to the Lenders an audit report as
required by Section 6.1(i) with respect to the applicable Subsequent Financial Statements (which
audit report may include a qualification relating to any pending restatement described above and
which qualified report shall not constitute a Default or Unmatured Default under this Agreement or
any other Loan Document). Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, in no event will any Subsequent
Financial Statements be delivered to the Lenders hereunder later than corresponding financial
statements are delivered to the noteholders under the Note Purchase Agreement.

respect to the Borrower, the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans hereunder and the obligation
and power of the LC Issuer to issue Letters of Credit shall automatically terminate and the
Obligations shall immediately become due and payable without any election or action on the part of
the Administrative Agent, the LC Issuer or any Lender. If any other Default occurs, the Required
Lenders (or the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders) may terminate or
suspend the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans hereunder and the obligation and power of the
LC Issuer to issue Letters of Credit, or declare the Obligations to be due and payable, or both,
whereupon the Obligations shall become immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand,
protest or notice of any kind, all of which the Borrower hereby expressly waives.
Section 8.2 Amendments. Subject to the provisions of this Section 8.2 and Sections
8.3 and 8.4 below, the Required Lenders (or the Administrative Agent with the consent in writing
of the Required Lenders) and the Borrower may enter into agreements supplemental hereto for the
purpose of adding or modifying any provisions to the Loan Documents or changing in any manner the
rights of the Lenders or the Borrower hereunder or waiving any Default or Unmatured Default
hereunder; provided, however, that no such supplemental agreement shall, without the
consent of all of the Lenders adversely affected thereby (or in the case of subsections 8.2(ii),
(iv), (v) and (vi), all of the Lenders):
(i) Extend the final maturity of any Loan, or extend the expiry date of any Letter of
Credit to a date after the Facility Termination Date or forgive all or any portion of the
principal amount thereof or any LC Disbursements, or reduce the rate or extend the time of
payment of interest or fees hereunder or LC Disbursements (it being understood that the waiver
of default interest pursuant to Section 2.14 shall only require the consent of Required
Lenders), or amend Section 2.24(ii).
(ii) Reduce the percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders.
(iii) Increase any Commitment of any Lender hereunder (it being understood that any
change to or waivers or modifications of conditions precedent, covenants, Defaults or
Unmatured Defaults or of a mandatory prepayment shall not constitute an increase or extension
of the Commitments of any Lender).
(iv) Permit the Borrower to assign its rights under this Agreement (it being understood
that any modification to Section 6.12 or 6.13 shall only require approval of the Required
Lenders).
(v) Amend this Section 8.2 or Section 11.2 (it being understood that with the consent of
the Required Lenders, additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement (including
pursuant to Section 2.8(iii)) may be included in the determination of the Required Lenders on
substantially the same basis as the Commitments and
101
extensions of credit thereunder on the Effective Date and this Section 8.2 may be amended by
the Required Lenders to reflect such extensions of credit.
(vi) Release all or substantially all of the Collateral or release all or substantially
all of the Guarantors from their obligations under the Guaranty, except, in either case, as
contemplated by Section 10.17.
Without limiting the foregoing and notwithstanding anything herein or in Section 2.8(iii) to the
contrary: (A) any amendment having the effect of permitting the aggregate amount of Term B Loans
allowed or incurred pursuant to Section 2.8(iii) after the date hereof to exceed $50,000,000 or
permitting the Term B Balance at any time to exceed $250,000,000 shall require the consent of the
Required Specified Lenders and the Required B Lenders; and (B) the consent of the Required B
Lenders shall be required with respect to any amendment that (1) extends the scheduled date of
payment of the principal amount of any Term B Loan, (2) alters the amount or application of any
prepayment pursuant to Section 2.10 in a manner adverse to the interests of Lenders with Term B
Loans or (3) has the effect of providing Collateral to the Revolving Lenders or Lenders with Term A
Loans on a basis inconsistent with Section 2.24(ii).
No amendment of any provision of this Agreement relating to the Administrative Agent shall be
effective without the written consent of the Administrative Agent, and no amendment of any
provision relating to the LC Issuer shall be effective without the written consent of the LC
Issuer. No amendment of any provision of this Agreement relating to the Swing Line Lender or any
Swing Line Loan made by such Swing Line Lender shall be effective without the written consent of
the Swing Line Lender. The Administrative Agent may waive payment of the fee required under
Section 12.1(ii)(B)(3) without obtaining the consent of any other party to this Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the execution and delivery of all documentation required by
Section 2.8(iii) to be delivered in connection with an increase to the Aggregate Revolving Credit
Commitment, the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the new or existing Lenders whose
Commitments have been affected may and shall enter into an amendment hereof (which shall be
binding on all parties hereto) solely for the purpose of reflecting any new Lenders and their new
Revolving Credit Commitments and any increase in the Revolving Credit Commitment of any existing
Lender.
Section 8.3 Replacement Loans. In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written
consent of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders providing the relevant
Replacement Term Loans to permit the refinancing of all of the outstanding Term A Loans (the
“Refinanced Term A Loans”) or all of the outstanding Term B Loans (the “Refinanced
Term B Loans”) or the replacement of the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment (the
“Refinanced Commitment”) with one or more replacement term loan tranches hereunder which
shall be Loans hereunder (“Replacement Term A Loans” or the “Replacement Term B
Loans”, as applicable) or one or more new revolving commitments (the “Replacement
Commitments”); provided, that (i) the aggregate principal amount of such Replacement
Term A Loans and Replacement Term B Loans shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount of such
Refinanced Term A Loans and Refinanced Term B Loans, respectively, (ii) the Applicable Margin for
such Replacement Term A Loans and Replacement Term B Loans shall not be higher than the Applicable
Margin for such Refinanced Term A Loans and Refinanced Term B Loans,
102
respectively, (iii) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of such Replacement Term A Loans and
Replacement Term B Loans shall not be shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of such
Refinanced Term A Loans and Refinanced Term B Loans, respectively, at the time of such refinancing,
(iv) the aggregate amount of the Replacement Commitment shall not exceed the Refinanced Commitment,
(v) the Applicable Margin for such Replacement Commitment shall not exceed the Applicable Margin
for the Refinanced Commitment, (vi) the borrower of such Replacement Term A Loans, Replacement Term
B Loans or Replacement Commitment shall be the Borrower and (vii) all other terms applicable to
such Replacement Term A Loans, Replacement Term B Loans or Replacement Commitments shall be
substantially identical to, or not materially more favorable to the Lenders providing such
Replacement Term A Loans, Replacement Term B Loans or Replacement Commitments than, those
applicable to such Refinanced Term A Loans, Refinanced Term B Loans or Refinanced Commitments,
except to the extent necessary to provide for covenants and other terms applicable to any period
after the latest final maturity of the Term A Loans or Term B Loans, as applicable, in effect
immediately prior to such refinancing.
Section 8.4 Errors. Further, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
Section 8.2, if following the Effective Date, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall have
agreed in their sole and absolute discretion that there is an ambiguity, inconsistency, manifest
error or any error or omission of a technical or immaterial nature, in each case, in any provision
of the Loan Documents, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall be permitted to amend
such provision and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of
any other party to any Loan Documents if the same is not objected to in writing by the Required
Lenders within ten Business Days following receipt of notice thereof (it being understood that the
Administrative Agent has no obligation to agree to any such amendment).
Section 8.5 Preservation of Rights. No delay or omission of the Lenders, the LC
Issuer or the Administrative Agent to exercise any right under the Loan Documents shall impair
such right or be construed to be a waiver of any Default or an acquiescence therein, and a Credit
Extension notwithstanding the existence of a Default or the inability of the Borrower to satisfy
the conditions precedent to such Credit Extension shall not constitute any waiver or acquiescence.
Any single or partial exercise of any such right shall not preclude other or further exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other right, and no waiver, amendment or other variation of the
terms, conditions or provisions of the Loan Documents whatsoever shall be valid unless in writing
signed by the Lenders required pursuant to Section 8.2 or as otherwise provided in Section 8.3 or
8.4, and then only to the extent in such writing specifically set forth. All remedies contained in
the Loan Documents or by law afforded shall be cumulative and all shall be available to the
Administrative Agent, the LC Issuer and the Lenders until the Obligations have been paid in full.

Section 9.1 Survival of Representations. All representations and warranties of the
Borrower and Holdco contained in this Agreement shall survive the making of the Credit Extensions

contrary notwithstanding, neither the LC Issuer nor any Lender shall be obligated to extend credit
to the Borrower in violation of any limitation or prohibition provided by any applicable statute
or regulation.
Section 9.3 Headings. Section headings in the Loan Documents are for convenience of
reference only, and shall not govern the interpretation of any of the provisions of the Loan
Documents.
Section 9.4 Entire Agreement. The Loan Documents embody the entire agreement and
understanding among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the LC Issuer and the Lenders and

the fee letter described in Section 10.13 which shall survive and remain in full force and effect
during the term of this Agreement.
Section 9.5 Several Obligations; Benefits of this Agreement. The respective
obligations of the Lenders hereunder are several and not joint and no Lender shall be the partner
or agent of any other (except to the extent to which the Administrative Agent is authorized to act
as such). The failure of any Lender to perform any of its obligations hereunder shall not relieve
any other Lender from any of its obligations hereunder. This Agreement shall not be construed so
as to confer any right or benefit upon any Person other than the parties to this Agreement and
their respective successors and assigns, provided, however, that the parties hereto
expressly agree that the Arranger shall enjoy the benefits of the provisions of Sections 9.6, 9.8
and 10.11 to the extent specifically set forth therein and shall have the right to enforce such
provisions on its own behalf and in its own name to the same extent as if it were a party to this
Agreement.
Section 9.6
Expenses; Indemnification.
(i) The Borrower shall reimburse the Administrative Agent and the Arranger for all
reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (limited to the reasonable fees,
disbursements and other charges of one counsel to the Administrative Agent and the Arranger
taken as a whole and, if reasonably necessary, of one local counsel in any relevant
jurisdiction) paid or incurred by such parties in connection with the preparation,
negotiation, execution, delivery, syndication, distribution (including, without limitation,
via the internet), review, amendment (proposed or actual), modification, and administration of
the Loan Documents. The Borrower also agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent, the

out-of-pocket expenses (limited with respect to legal
104
expenses to the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of one counsel to all such
Persons, and, if reasonably necessary, of one local counsel in any relevant jurisdiction) paid
or incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, the Collateral Agent, the LC Issuer or
any Lender in connection with the collection and enforcement of the Loan Documents.
(ii) The Borrower hereby further agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent, the

(limited to the reasonable out-of-pocket fees, disbursements and other charges of one counsel
to the indemnified Persons taken as a whole and, if reasonably necessary, one local counsel in
any relevant jurisdiction) which any of them may pay or incur arising out of or relating to
this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the transactions contemplated hereby or the direct or
indirect application or proposed application of the proceeds of any Credit Extension hereunder
except to the extent that they are determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of
competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful
misconduct of, or breach of the Loan Documents by, the indemnified party (or their Related
Parties) or any dispute solely among the indemnified persons (or their Related Parties) and not
involving Holdco, the Borrower, the Sponsors or their Affiliates. The obligations of the
Borrower under this Section 9.6 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
Section 9.7 Severability of Provisions. Any provision in any Loan Document that is
held to be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid in any jurisdiction shall, as to that
jurisdiction, be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid without affecting the remaining provisions
in that jurisdiction or the operation, enforceability, or validity of that provision in any other
jurisdiction, and to this end the provisions of all Loan Documents are declared to be severable.
Section 9.8 Nonliability of Lenders. The relationship between the Borrower on the one
hand and the Lenders, the LC Issuer and the Administrative Agent on the other hand shall be solely
that of borrower and lender. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, the LC Issuer nor any
Lender shall have any fiduciary responsibilities to the Borrower. Neither the Administrative
Agent, the Arranger nor any Lender undertakes any responsibility to the Borrower to review or
inform the Borrower of any matter in connection with any phase of the Borrower’s business or
operations. The Borrower agrees that neither the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, the LC Issuer
nor any Lender shall have liability to the Borrower (whether sounding in tort, contract or
otherwise) for losses suffered by the Borrower in connection with, arising out of, or in any way
related to, the transactions contemplated and the relationship established by the Loan Documents,
or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith, unless it is determined in a
final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction that such losses resulted from
the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of, or breach of the Loan Documents by, the
party from which recovery is sought or any dispute solely between or among the Administrative
Agent, the Arranger, the LC Issuer and/or any Lender and not involving Holdco, the Borrower, the
Sponsors or their respective Affiliates. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, the LC
Issuer nor any Lender shall have any liability with respect to, and the Borrower hereby waives,
releases and agrees not to xxx for, any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages
suffered by the Borrower in connection with,
105
arising out of, or in any way related to the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated
thereby.
Section 9.9 Confidentiality. The Administrative Agent and each Lender agrees to hold
any Information (as defined below) which it may receive from the Borrower in connection with this
Agreement in confidence, except for disclosure (i) to its Affiliates and to the Administrative
Agent and any other Lender and their respective Affiliates for use solely in connection with the
performance of their respective obligations hereunder contemplated hereby, (ii) to legal counsel,
accountants, and other professional advisors to such Lender or to a Transferee, (iii) to regulatory

to such counterparties, (vii) permitted by Section 12.2, and (viii) to rating agencies if requested
or required by such agencies in connection with a rating relating to the Advances hereunder.
Without limiting Section 9.4, the Borrower agrees that the terms of this Section 9.9 shall set
forth the entire agreement between the Borrower and each Lender (including the Administrative
Agent) with respect to any Information previously or hereafter received by such Lender in
connection with this Agreement, and this Section 9.9 shall supersede any and all prior
confidentiality agreements entered into by such Lender with respect to such Information. For the
purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from Holdco, the Borrower,
its Subsidiaries or their agents or representatives relating to Holdco, the Borrower, its
Subsidiaries or their agents or other representatives or its business, other than any such
information that is available to the Administrative Agent, the LC Issuer or any Lender on a
non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by Holdco or the Borrower. Any Person required to
maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have
complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to
maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own
confidential information.
EACH LENDER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT INFORMATION AS DEFINED IN THIS SECTION 9.9 FURNISHED TO IT
PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY INCLUDE MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION CONCERNING HOLDCO AND ITS
AFFILIATES, THE LOAN PARTIES AND THEIR RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES, AND
CONFIRMS THAT IT HAS DEVELOPED COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES REGARDING THE USE OF MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC
INFORMATION AND THAT IT WILL HANDLE SUCH MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THOSE
PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS.
ALL INFORMATION, INCLUDING REQUESTS FOR WAIVERS AND AMENDMENTS, FURNISHED BY THE BORROWER OR
THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT PURSUANT TO, OR IN THE COURSE OF ADMINISTERING, THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE
SYNDICATE-LEVEL INFORMATION, WHICH MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION ABOUT HOLDCO AND
ITS AFFILIATES, THE LOAN PARTIES AND THEIR RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR
106
RESPECTIVE SECURITIES. ACCORDINGLY, EACH LENDER REPRESENTS TO THE BORROWER AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE
AGENT THAT IT HAS IDENTIFIED IN ITS ADMINISTRATIVE QUESTIONNAIRE A CREDIT CONTACT WHO MAY RECEIVE
INFORMATION THAT MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS COMPLIANCE
PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW.
Section 9.10 Nonreliance. Each Lender hereby represents that it is not relying on or
looking to any margin stock (as defined in Regulation U) for the repayment of the Credit
Extensions provided for herein.
Section 9.11 Disclosure. The Borrower and each Lender hereby acknowledge and agree
that JPMCB and/or its Affiliates from time to time may hold investments in, make other loans to or
have other relationships with the Borrower and its Affiliates.
Section 9.12 USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender that is subject to the requirements of the
USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”)
hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Act, it is required to
obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the
name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the
Borrower in accordance with the Act.
Section 9.13 Amendment and Restatement; Prior Defaults.
(i) On the Effective Date the Existing Credit Agreement shall be amended, restated and
superseded in its entirety hereby. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (i) this
Agreement, any Notes delivered pursuant to Section 2.16 and the other Loan Documents executed
and delivered in connection herewith do not constitute a novation, payment and reborrowing, or
termination of the “Obligations” (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) under the
Existing Credit Agreement as in effect prior to the Effective Date and (ii) such “Obligations”
are in all respects continuing with only the terms thereof being modified (and, as applicable,
the primary obligor being changed) as provided in this Agreement. Except in so far as the
terms thereof are expressly modified hereby, nothing herein or in any Loan Document shall
release any Loan Party from any payment obligation in respect of the Obligations under any
Loan Document (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement). All indemnification obligations
of the Borrower pursuant to the Existing Credit Agreement are continued hereunder.
(ii) The parties agree that as of the Effective Date the “Waiver Period” under the
Existing Credit Agreement shall terminate and all Defaults and Unmatured Defaults arising
under the Existing Credit Agreement shall be permanently waived; provided that such prior or
permanent waiver shall not constitute a waiver of any Default or Unmatured Default arising
under this Agreement upon or after the effectiveness of this Agreement.
(iii) The Lenders hereby waive the prior notice required by Section 2.10 of the Existing
Credit Agreement with respect to the repayment on the date hereof of $100,000,000 of Revolving
Loans outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement.

ARTICLE X
THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
Section 10.1 Appointment; Nature of Relationship. JPMCB is hereby appointed by each of
the Lenders and the LC Issuer as its contractual representative (herein referred to as the
“Administrative Agent”) hereunder and under each other Loan Document, and each of the
Lenders irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as the contractual representative of
such Lender with the rights and duties expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents.
The Administrative Agent agrees to act as such contractual representative upon the express
conditions contained in this Article X. Notwithstanding the use of the defined term “Administrative
Agent,” it is expressly understood and agreed that the Administrative Agent shall not have any
fiduciary responsibilities to any Lender by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document and
that the Administrative Agent is merely acting as the contractual representative of the Lenders
with only those duties as are expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
In its capacity as the Lenders’ contractual representative, the Administrative Agent (i) does not
hereby assume any fiduciary duties to any of the Lenders, (ii) is a “representative” of the Lenders
within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code and (iii) is acting as an independent
contractor, the rights and duties of which are limited to those expressly set forth in this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents together with such rights and powers as are reasonably
incident thereto. Each of the Lenders hereby agrees to assert no claim against the Administrative
Agent on any agency theory or any other theory of liability for breach of fiduciary duty, all of
which claims each Lender hereby waives.
Section 10.2 Powers. The Administrative Agent shall have and may exercise such powers
under the Loan Documents as are specifically delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of
each thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Administrative
Agent shall have no implied duties to the Lenders, or any obligation to the Lenders to take any
action thereunder except any action specifically provided by the Loan Documents to be taken by the
Administrative Agent.
Section 10.3 General Immunity. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its
directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable to the Borrower, the Lenders or any
Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or under any other Loan
Document or in connection herewith or therewith except to the extent such action or inaction is
determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen
from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Person.
Section 10.4 No Responsibility for Loans. Recitals, etc. Neither the Administrative
Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be responsible for or have any
duty to ascertain, inquire into, or verify (a) any statement, warranty or representation made in
connection with any Loan Document or any borrowing hereunder; (b) the performance or observance of
any of the covenants or agreements of any obligor under any Loan Document, including, without
limitation, any agreement by an obligor to furnish information directly to each Lender; (c) the
satisfaction of any condition specified in Article IV, except receipt of items required to be
delivered solely to the Administrative Agent; (d) the existence or possible existence of any
Default or Unmatured Default; (e) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness,
108
sufficiency or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other instrument or writing furnished in
connection therewith; (f) the value, sufficiency, creation, perfection or priority of any Lien in
any collateral security; or (g) the financial condition of the Borrower or any guarantor of any of
the Obligations or of any of the Borrower’s or any such guarantor’s respective Subsidiaries. Except
as expressly set forth herein, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and
shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of
its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Administrative Agent or
any of its Affiliates in any capacity.
Section 10.5 Action on Instructions of Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall in all
cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder and under any other
Loan Document in accordance with written instructions signed by the Required Lenders, and such
instructions and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all of
the Lenders. The Lenders hereby acknowledge that the Administrative Agent shall be under no duty
to take any discretionary action permitted to be taken by it pursuant to the provisions of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall be requested in writing to do so by the
Required Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take
any action hereunder and under any other Loan Document unless it shall first be indemnified to its
satisfaction by the Lenders pro rata against any and all liability, cost and expense that it may
incur by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.
Section 10.6 Employment of Administrative Agents and Counsel. The Administrative
Agent may execute any of its duties as Administrative Agent hereunder and under any other Loan
Document by or through employees, agents, and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be answerable to the
Lenders, except as to money or securities received by it or its authorized agents, for the default
or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care. The
Administrative Agent shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning the contractual arrangement
between the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and all matters pertaining to the Administrative
Agent’s duties hereunder and under any other Loan Document.
Section 10.7 Reliance on Documents; Counsel. The Administrative Agent shall be
entitled to rely upon any Note, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram,
facsimile, telex, electronic mail message, statement, paper or document believed by it to be
genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person or Persons, and, in
respect to legal matters, upon the opinion of counsel selected by the Administrative Agent, which
counsel may be employees of the Administrative Agent. For purposes of determining compliance with
the conditions specified in Sections 4.1 and 4.2, each Lender that has signed this Agreement shall
be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or
other matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory
to such Lender or the Administrative Agent unless the Administrative Agent shall have received
notice from such Lender prior to the applicable date specifying its objection thereto.
Section 10.8 Administrative Agent’s Reimbursement and Indemnification. The Lenders
agree to reimburse and indemnify the Administrative Agent ratably in proportion to their
respective Commitments (or, if the Commitments have been terminated, in proportion to their
Commitments immediately prior to such termination) (i) for any amounts not reimbursed by the
Borrower for which the Administrative Agent is entitled to reimbursement by the Borrower
109
under the Loan Documents, (ii) for any other expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent on
behalf of the Lenders, in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration and
enforcement of the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, for any expenses incurred by the
Administrative Agent in connection with any dispute between the Administrative Agent and any Lender
or between two or more of the Lenders) and (iii) for any liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind and nature
whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any
way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or any other document delivered in connection
therewith or the transactions contemplated thereby (including, without limitation, for any such
amounts incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in connection with any dispute
between the Administrative Agent and any Lender or between two or more of the Lenders), or the
enforcement of any of the terms of the Loan Documents or of any such other documents,
provided that (i) no Lender shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent any of
the foregoing is found in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to
have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Administrative
Agent and (ii) any indemnification required pursuant to Section 3.5(vii) shall, notwithstanding the
provisions of this Section 10.8, be paid by the relevant Lender in accordance with the provisions
thereof. The obligations of the Lenders under this Section 10.8 shall survive payment of the
Obligations and termination of this Agreement.
Section 10.9 Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have
knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Unmatured Default hereunder unless the
Administrative Agent has received written notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this
Agreement describing such Default or Unmatured Default and stating that such notice is a “notice
of default”. In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative
Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders.
Section 10.10 Rights as a Lender. In the event the Administrative Agent is a Lender,
the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder and under any other Loan
Document with respect to its Commitment and its Loans as any Lender and may exercise the same as
though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, at any time
when the Administrative Agent is a Lender, unless the context otherwise indicates, include the
Administrative Agent in its individual capacity. The Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may
accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of trust, debt, equity or
other transaction, in addition to those contemplated by this Agreement or any other Loan Document,
with the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries in which the Borrower or such Subsidiary is not
restricted hereby from engaging with any other Person. The Administrative Agent, in its individual
capacity, is not obligated to remain a Lender.
Section 10.11 Lender Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that it has,
independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Arranger or any other Lender
and based on the financial statements prepared by the Borrower and such other documents and
information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will,
independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Arranger or any other Lender
and based on such documents and information as it shall deem
110
appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action
under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
Section 10.12 Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign at
any time by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower, such resignation to be
effective upon the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent or, if no successor
Administrative Agent has been appointed, sixty days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives
notice of its intention to resign. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders (with the
consent of the Borrower unless at the applicable time a Default under Section 7.2, 7.6 (in respect
of bankruptcy only) or 7.7 (in respect of bankruptcy only) shall have occurred and be continuing)
shall have the right to appoint, on behalf of the Borrower and the Lenders, a successor
Administrative Agent, other than a Disqualified Institution. If no successor Administrative Agent
shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders within forty-five days after the resigning
Administrative Agent’s giving notice of its intention to resign, then the resigning Administrative
Agent may appoint, on behalf of the Borrower and the Lenders, a successor Administrative Agent,
other than a Disqualified Institution (with the consent of the Borrower unless at the applicable
time a Default under Section 7.2, 7.6 (in respect of bankruptcy only) or 7.7 (in respect of
bankruptcy only) shall have occurred and be continuing). Notwithstanding the previous sentence, the
Administrative Agent may at any time (with the consent of the Borrower, not to be unreasonably
withheld but without the consent of any Lender) appoint any of its Affiliates which is a commercial
bank as a successor Administrative Agent hereunder. If the Administrative Agent has resigned and no
successor Administrative Agent has been appointed, the Lenders may perform all the duties of the
Administrative Agent hereunder and the Borrower shall make all payments in respect of the
Obligations to the applicable Lender and for all other purposes shall deal directly with the
Lenders. No successor Administrative Agent shall be deemed to be appointed hereunder until such
successor Administrative Agent has accepted the appointment. Any such successor Administrative
Agent shall be a commercial bank having capital and retained earnings of at least $250,000,000 and
shall not be a Disqualified Institution. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative
Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall
thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the
resigning Administrative Agent. Upon the effectiveness of the resignation of the Administrative
Agent, the resigning Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations
hereunder and under the Loan Documents. After the effectiveness of the resignation of an
Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article X shall continue in effect for the benefit of
such Administrative Agent in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was
acting as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. In the event that
there is a successor to the Administrative Agent by merger, or the Administrative Agent assigns its
duties and obligations to an Affiliate pursuant to this Section 10.12, then the term “Prime Rate”
as used in this Agreement shall mean the prime rate, base rate or other analogous rate of the new
Administrative Agent.
Section 10.13 Administrative Agent and Arranger Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to
the Administrative Agent and the Arranger, for their respective accounts, the fees agreed to by
the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Arranger pursuant to that certain fee letter
agreement dated February 14, 2008, or as otherwise agreed from time to time.
111
Section 10.14
Delegation to Affiliates. The Borrower and the Lenders agree that the
Administrative Agent may delegate any of its duties under this Agreement to any of its Affiliates.
Any such Affiliate (and such Affiliate’s directors, officers, agents and employees) which performs
duties in connection with this Agreement shall be entitled to the same benefits of the
indemnification, waiver and other protective provisions to which the Administrative Agent is
entitled under Articles IX and X.
Section 10.15
Co-Documentation Agents, Co-Syndication Agents, etc. No Lender
identified in this Agreement as a “Co-Documentation Agent” or a “Co-Syndication Agent” shall have
any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than
those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of such Lenders
shall have or be deemed to have a fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender hereby makes
the same acknowledgments with respect to such Lenders as it makes with respect to the
Administrative Agent in Section 10.11 mutatis mutandis.
Section 10.16 Appointment of Collateral Agent. Each of the Lenders and the LC Issuer
hereby irrevocably appoints the Collateral Agent as its agent and authorizes the Collateral Agent
to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Collateral
Agent by the terms hereof or of the other Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as
are reasonably incidental thereto. Such authorization shall include the authority to enter into
the Collateral Documents (including amendments thereof to facilitate the securing of Rate
Management Obligations) on such terms as it deems appropriate. All provisions of this Article X
relating to the Administrative Agent (and all indemnities of the Administrative Agent by the
Borrower and all provisions relating to reimbursement of expenses of the Administrative Agent by
the Borrower) shall be equally applicable to the Collateral Agent mutatis
mutandis.
Section 10.17 Certain Releases of Collateral and Guarantors. Without limiting the
foregoing, (i) if any of the Collateral under the Collateral Documents is sold in a transaction
permitted hereunder (other than to a Loan Party), such Collateral (but not the proceeds thereof)
shall be sold free and clear of the Liens created by the Collateral Documents and the
Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall be authorized to take any actions deemed
appropriate in order to effect the foregoing and (ii) if any Guarantor is sold in a transaction
permitted hereby, the Administrative Agent is authorized to release such Guarantor from the
Guaranty upon consummation of such sale.
Section 10.18 Intercreditor Agreement. Each Lender hereby authorizes and directs the
Collateral Agent to enter into the Intercreditor Agreement as attorney-in-fact on behalf of such
Lender and agrees that in consideration of the benefits of the security being provided to such
Lender in accordance with the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement and by acceptance
of those benefits, each Lender (including any Lender which becomes such by assignment pursuant to
Section 12.1 after the date hereof) shall be bound by the terms and provisions of the
Intercreditor Agreement and shall comply (and shall cause any Affiliate thereof which is the
holder of any First Priority Obligations (as defined therein) to comply) with such terms and
provisions.
112
ARTICLE XI
SETOFF; RATABLE PAYMENTS
Section 11.1 Setoff. If a Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender
and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest
extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or
demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such
Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any of and all the
Obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender or
Affiliate, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this
Agreement and although such Obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this
Section 11.1 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which
such Lender may have.
Section 11.2 Ratable Payments. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff
or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of
its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swing Line Loans resulting in such Lender
receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and participations
in LC Disbursements and Swing Line Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received
by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at
face value) participations in the Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swing Line Loans
of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared
by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest
on their respective Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swing Line Loans;
provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the
payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase
price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this
paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in
accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as
consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or
participations in LC Disbursements to any Assignee or Participant.
ARTICLE XII

consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) of:
(1) the Borrower, provided that no consent of the Borrower
shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender,
an Approved Fund or, if a Default under Section 7.2, 7.6 (in respect of
bankruptcy only) or 7.7 (in respect of bankruptcy only) has occurred and
is continuing, any other Assignee;
(2) the Administrative Agent, provided that no consent of the

Approved Fund or the Borrower or any of its Affiliates; and
(3) the LC Issuer, provided that no consent of the LC Issuer
shall be required for an assignment of all or any portion of a Term Loan.
(B) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:
(1) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an
Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of
the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans of any Class, the amount of
the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such
assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption
with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent)
shall not be less than $5,000,000 in the case of a Revolving Credit
Commitment or, in the case of a Term Loan, $1,000,000 unless each of the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent;
(2) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a
proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations

114

obligations in respect of one Class of Commitments or Loans;
(3) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to
the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a
processing and recordation fee of $3,500; and
(4) the Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the

about Holdco and its Affiliates, the Loan Parties and their related parties
or their respective securities) will be made available and who may receive
such information in accordance with the Assignee’s compliance
procedures and applicable laws, including Federal and state securities
laws.
For the purposes of this Section 12.1(ii), the term “Approved Fund” has the following
meaning:
“Approved Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making,
purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary
course of its business and that is administered or managed by (1) a Lender, (2) an Affiliate of a
Lender or (3) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender.
(C) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (ii)(E) of this
Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the
Assignee thereunder (except in the case of an assignment to the Borrower) shall be a party
hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the
rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder
shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released
from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption
covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender
shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections
3.1, 3.2, 3.4, 3.5 and 9.6). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations
under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 12.1 shall be treated for purposes
of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in
accordance with paragraph (iii) of this Section 12.1. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in this Agreement or any Assignment and Assumption, all Commitments, Loans, and all other
rights assigned to the Borrower pursuant to this Section 12.1 shall be deemed canceled for all
purposes under this Agreement, including without limitation with respect to Section 8.2 and
Section 6.19, and, without the consent of the Administrative Agent, neither the
115
Borrower nor any Affiliate of the Borrower which is a Lender shall be entitled to receive
information delivered to the Lenders or attend meetings of the Lenders.
(D) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of
the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and
Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and
addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount of the
Loans and LC Disbursements and any interest thereon owing to, each Lender
pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”), The entries in the
Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent, the LC Issuers and the Lenders may treat each Person
whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender
hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the
contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, any LC
Issuer and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon
reasonable prior notice.
(E) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption
executed by an assigning Lender and an Assignee, the Assignee’s completed
Administrative Questionnaire (unless the Assignee shall already be a Lender
hereunder, the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (ii)(B)(3) of
this Section 12.1 and any written consent to such assignment required by
paragraph (ii) of this Section 12.1, the Administrative Agent shall accept such
Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the
Register; provided that if either the assigning Lender or the Assignee shall have
failed to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.7,
2.21, 2.22(v), 10.8 or 11.2, the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to
accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information therein in the
Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with
all accrued interest thereon. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this
Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this
paragraph.
(iii) (A) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the LC
Issuer or the Swing Line Lender, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities other
than a Disqualified Institution (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such
Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its
Commitments and the Loans owing to it); provided that (1) such Lender’s obligations under
this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (2) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the
other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (3) the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent, the LC Issuer and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and
directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this
Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall
provide that (x) such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve
any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that
any
116
such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the
Participant (other than a Participant which is the Borrower), agree to any amendment,
modification or waiver described in Section 8.2(i) that affects such Participant, and (y) in
the case of a Participant which is the Borrower or an Affiliate of the Borrower, the selling
Lender shall not (without the consent of the Administrative Agent), and shall not be obligated
to, provide such Participant with information such Participant would not be entitled to receive
in accordance with Section 12.1(ii)(C) were such participation an assignment. Subject to
paragraph (iii)(B) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled
to the benefits of Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.4 and 3.5 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and
had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (ii) of this Section. To the
extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section
11.1 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 11.2
as though it were a Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any
agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells a participation to the Borrower, all
Commitments, Loans and all other rights subject to such participation to the Borrower shall be
deemed canceled for all purposes under this Agreement, including without limitation with
respect to Section 8.2 and Section 6.19, but, in the case of a participation of any Revolving
Credit Commitment, such cancellation shall be subject to the making of cash collateralization
arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the applicable LC Issuer and the Swing Line Lender with
respect to Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans outstanding at the time of such participation
which are subject to such participation.
(B) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment
under Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.4 or 3.5 than the applicable Lender would have been
entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant. A
Participant shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.5 unless the Borrower
is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees,
for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 3.5(iv) or (v), as
applicable, as though it were a Lender.
(C) Each Lender having sold a participation in its rights or Obligations
under this Agreement, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall
maintain a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of such
Participants and the rights, interests or obligations of such Participants in any
Obligation, in any Commitment and in any right to receive any payments
hereunder.
(iv) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of
its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including without limitation
any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall
not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such
pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations
hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.
117
Section 12.2
Dissemination of Information. The Borrower authorizes each Lender to
disclose to any Participant, actual or proposed assignee of an interest in the Obligations or Loan
Documents (each a “Transferee”) and any prospective Transferee any and all information in
such Lender’s possession concerning the creditworthiness of Holdco and its Subsidiaries, including
without limitation any information contained in any financial statements delivered pursuant to
Section 6.1 hereof; provided that each Transferee and prospective Transferee agrees to be
bound by Section 9.9 of this Agreement.
Section 12.3 Tax Treatment. If any interest in any Loan Document is transferred to
any Transferee, the transferor Lender shall cause such Transferee, concurrently with the
effectiveness of such transfer, to comply with the provisions of Section 3.5(iv) or (v), as
applicable.

Subordination of Liens. (a) Any and all Liens now existing or hereafter
created or arising in favor of any Second Priority Secured Party securing the Second Priority
Obligations, regardless of how acquired, whether by grant, statute, operation of law, subrogation
or otherwise are expressly junior in priority, operation and effect to any and all Liens now
existing or hereafter created or arising in favor of the First Priority
7
Secured Parties securing the First Priority Obligations, notwithstanding (i) anything to the
contrary contained in any agreement or filing to which any Second Priority Secured Party may now or
hereafter be a party, and regardless of the time, order or method of grant, attachment, recording
or perfection of any financing statements or other security interests, assignments, pledges, deeds,
mortgages and other liens, charges or encumbrances or any defect or deficiency or alleged defect or
deficiency in any of the foregoing, (ii) any provision of the Uniform Commercial Code or any
applicable law or any First Priority Document or Second Priority Document or any other circumstance
whatsoever and (iii) the fact that any such Liens in favor of any First Priority Secured Party
securing any of the First Priority Obligations are (x) subordinated to any Lien securing any
obligation of any Loan Party other than the Second Priority Obligations or (y) otherwise
subordinated, voided, avoided, invalidated or lapsed.
(b) No First Priority Secured Party or Second Priority Secured Party shall object to or
contest, or support any other Person in contesting or objecting to, in any proceeding (including
without limitation, any Insolvency Proceeding), the validity, extent, perfection, priority or
enforceability of any security interest in the Common Collateral granted to the other.
Notwithstanding any failure by any First Priority Secured Party or Second Priority Secured Party to
perfect its security interests in the Common Collateral or any avoidance, invalidation or
subordination by any third party or court of competent jurisdiction of the security interests in
the Common Collateral granted to the First Priority Secured Parties or the Second Priority Secured
Parties, the priority and rights as between the First Priority Secured Parties and the Second
Priority Secured Parties with respect to the Common Collateral shall be as set forth herein.
2.2 No Payment Subordination. The subordination of all Liens on the Common Collateral
securing the Second Priority Obligations to all Liens on the Common Collateral securing any First
Priority Obligations is with respect to only the priority of the Liens held by or on behalf of the
First Priority Secured Parties and shall not constitute a subordination of the Second Priority
Obligations to the First Priority Obligations. Except as provided in Sections 2.1,
4.1 and 5.5, nothing contained in this Agreement is intended to subordinate any debt
claim by a Second Priority Secured Party to a debt claim by a First Priority Secured Party. All
debt claims of the First Priority Secured Parties and Second Priority Secured Parties are intended
to be pari passu.
2.3 Nature of First Priority Obligations. The Second Priority Representative on behalf
of itself and the other Second Priority Secured Parties acknowledges that a portion of the First
Priority Obligations are revolving in nature and that the amount thereof that may be outstanding at
any time or from time to time may be increased or reduced and subsequently reborrowed, and that the
terms of the First Priority Obligations may be modified, extended or amended from time to time, and
that the aggregate amount of the First Priority Obligations may be increased, replaced or
refinanced, in each event, without notice to or consent by the Second Priority Secured Parties and
without affecting the provisions hereof. The lien priorities provided in Section 2.1 shall
not be altered or otherwise affected by any such amendment, modification, supplement, extension,
repayment, reborrowing, increase, replacement, renewal, restatement or refinancing of
8
either the First Priority Obligations or the Second Priority Obligations, or any portion thereof.
2.4
Agreements Regarding Actions to Perfect Liens. (a) The Second Priority
Representative on behalf of itself and the other Second Priority Secured Parties agrees that UCC-1
financing statements, patent, trademark or copyright filings or other filings or recordings filed
or recorded by or on behalf of the Second Priority Representative shall be in form reasonably
satisfactory to the First Priority Representative.
(b) The Second Priority Representative agrees on behalf of itself and the other Second
Priority Secured Parties that all mortgages, deeds of trust, deeds and similar instruments
(collectively, “mortgages”) now or thereafter filed, or acquired by operation of law or by
assignment against real property in favor of or for the benefit of the Second Priority
Representative shall be in form reasonably satisfactory to the First Priority Representative and
shall contain the following notation: “The lien created by this mortgage on the property described
herein is junior and subordinate to the lien on such property created by any mortgage, deed of
trust or similar instrument now or hereafter granted to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N. A., and its
successors and assigns, in such property, in accordance with the provisions of the Intercreditor
Agreement dated as of March 25, 2008 among JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Collateral Agent; Deutsche
Bank Trust Company Americas, as Trustee and Collateral Agent; and MoneyGram Payment Systems
Worldwide, Inc., as amended from time to time.”
(c) The First Priority Representative hereby acknowledges that, to the extent that it holds,
or a third party holds on its behalf, physical possession of or “control” (as defined in the
Uniform Commercial Code) over Common Collateral pursuant to the First Priority Documents, such
possession or control is also for the benefit of the Second Priority Representative and the other
Second Priority Secured Parties solely to the extent required to perfect their security interest in
such Common Collateral. Nothing in the preceding sentence shall be construed to impose any duty on
the First Priority Representative (or any third party acting on its behalf) with respect to such
Common Collateral or provide the Second Priority Representative or any other Second Priority
Secured Party with any rights with respect to such Common Collateral beyond those specified in this
Agreement and the Second Priority Security Documents, provided that subsequent to the occurrence of
the First Priority Obligations Payment Date, the First Priority Representative shall (x) deliver to
the Second Priority Representative, at the Borrower’s sole reasonable cost and expense, the Common
Collateral in its possession or control together with any necessary endorsements to the extent
required by the Second Priority Documents or (y) direct and deliver such Common Collateral as a
court of competent jurisdiction otherwise directs, and provided further that the provisions
of this Agreement are intended solely to govern the respective Lien priorities as between the First
Priority Secured Parties and the Second Priority Secured Parties and shall not impose on the First
Priority Secured Parties any obligations in respect of the disposition of any Common Collateral (or
any proceeds thereof) that would conflict with prior perfected Liens or any claims thereon in favor
of any other Person that is not a Secured Party.
9
2.5 Similar Liens and Agreements. The parties hereto agree that it is their intention
that the First Priority Collateral and the Second Priority Collateral shall be identical. In
furtherance of the foregoing, the parties hereto agree, subject to the other provisions of this
Agreement:
(a) upon request by the First Priority Representative or the Second Priority Representative,
to cooperate in good faith (and to direct their counsel to cooperate in good faith) from time to
time in order to determine the specific items included in the First Priority Collateral and the
Second Priority Collateral and the steps taken to perfect their respective Liens and the identity
of the respective parties obligated under the First Priority Documents and the Second Priority
Documents; and
(b) that the documents and agreements creating or evidencing the First Priority Collateral and
the Second Priority Collateral and guarantees for the First Priority Obligations and the Second
Priority Obligations shall be in all material respects the same forms of documents other than (i)
with respect to the first priority and the second priority nature of the security interests created
thereunder and (ii) as provided in Section 2.6.
(c) So long as the First Priority Obligations Payment Date has not occurred, if any Second
Priority Secured Party shall acquire or hold any new Lien on any assets of any Loan Party securing
any Second Priority Obligation which assets are not also subject to the first-priority Lien of the
First Priority Representative under the First Priority Documents, then the Second Priority
Representative, will, without the need for any further consent of any other Second Priority Secured
Party, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any other Second Priority Document, hold such
Lien for the benefit of the First Lien Representative. To the extent that the foregoing provisions
are not complied with for any reason, without limiting any other rights and remedies available to
the First Priority Secured Parties, the Second Priority Representative and the other Second
Priority Secured Parties agree that any amounts received by or distributed to any of them pursuant
to or as a result of Liens granted in contravention of this Section 2.5(c) shall be subject to
Section 4.1.
2.6
Bailee for Perfection. (a) The First Priority Representative agrees to hold that
part of the Common Collateral that is in its possession or control (or in the possession or control
of its agents or bailees) to the extent that possession or control thereof is taken to perfect a
Lien thereon under the Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable law as collateral agent for the
First Priority Secured Parties and as bailee for the Second Priority Representative (such bailment
being intended, among other things, to satisfy the requirements of
Sections 8-106(d)(3),
8-301(a)(2) and 9-313(c) of the Uniform Commercial Code) and any assignee solely for the purpose of
perfecting the security interest granted under the First Priority Documents and the Second Priority
Documents, respectively, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.6. Solely
with respect to any deposit accounts under the control (within the meaning of Section 9-104 of the
UCC) of the First Priority Representative, the First Priority Representative agrees to also hold
control over such deposit accounts as agent for the Second Priority Representative.
(b) The First Priority Representative shall have no obligation whatsoever to the First
Priority Secured Parties, the Second Priority Representative or any Second Priority Secured Party
to ensure that the Common Collateral is genuine or owned by any
10
of the Grantors or to preserve rights or benefits of any Person except as expressly set forth in
this Section 2.6. The duties or responsibilities of the First Priority Representative under
this Section 2.6 shall be limited solely to holding the Common Collateral as agent and
bailee in accordance with this Section 2.6 and delivering the Common Collateral upon a
discharge of First Priority Obligations as provided in paragraph (d) below.
(c) The First Priority Representative acting pursuant to this Section 2.6 shall not
have by reason of the First Priority Security Documents, the Second Priority Security Documents,
this Agreement or any other document a fiduciary relationship in respect of the First Priority
Secured Parties, the Second Priority Representative or any Second Priority Secured Party.
(d) Upon the discharge of First Priority Obligations under the First Priority Documents to
which the First Priority Representative is a party, the First Priority Representative shall
promptly deliver, at Borrower’s sole reasonable cost and expense, the remaining Common Collateral
(if any) in its possession or control together with any necessary endorsements, first, to the
Second Priority Representative to the extent Second Priority Obligations remain outstanding, and
second, to the Borrower to the extent no First Priority Obligations or Second Priority Obligations
remain outstanding (in each case, so as to allow such Person to obtain control of such Common
Collateral). Upon such discharge of First Priority Obligations, the First Priority Representative
further agrees to take all other action reasonably requested by the Second Priority Representative
in connection with the Second Priority Representative obtaining a first priority interest in the
Common Collateral or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.
SECTION 3. Enforcement Rights.
3.1 Exclusive Enforcement. (a) Until the First Priority Obligations Payment Date
has occurred, whether or not an Insolvency Proceeding has been commenced by or against any Loan
Party, the First Priority Secured Parties shall have the exclusive right to take and continue any
Enforcement Action with respect to the Common Collateral, without any consultation with or consent
of any Second Priority Secured Party. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a default
or an event of default under the First Priority Documents, the First Priority Representative and
the other First Priority Secured Parties may take and continue any Enforcement Action with respect
to the First Priority Obligations and the Common Collateral in such order and manner as they may
determine in their sole discretion subject only to any express limitation on taking such
Enforcement Action contained in the First Priority Documents. Except as specifically provided in
this Section 3.1 or 3.7 below, notwithstanding any rights or remedies available to a Second
Priority Secured Party under any of the Second Priority Security Documents, applicable law or
otherwise, no Second Priority Secured Party shall, directly or indirectly, take any Enforcement
Action; provided that, upon the occurrence and continuance of the Second Priority Enforcement Date
the Second Priority Secured Parties may take any Enforcement Action subject to the other terms of
this Agreement;
(b) The First Priority Representative shall respond to all reasonable written requests
from the Second Priority Representative to provide written statements as to the
11
status of any Enforcement Action taken by the First Priority Representative. The Second Priority
Representative shall respond to all reasonable written requests from the First Priority
Representative to provide written statements as to the status of any Enforcement Action taken by
the Second Priority Representative. Notwithstanding the occurrence and continuance of the Second
Priority Enforcement Date, in no event shall any Second Priority Secured Parties commence or
continue any Enforcement Action if an Insolvency Proceeding has been commenced by or against any
Loan Party and is continuing; provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit the filing of
an involuntary proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code by a Second Priority Secured Party to the
extent otherwise permitted pursuant to Sections 3.1 and 3.7;
(c) The Second Priority Representative hereby acknowledges and agrees that the rights and
remedies of the First Priority Representative and First Priority Secured Parties under the First
Priority Documents are independent rights and remedies and that no covenant, agreement or
restriction contained in the Second Priority Security Documents or any other Second Priority
Document (other than this Agreement) shall be deemed to restrict the manner in which the First
Priority Representative and any of the First Priority Secured Parties exercise (or elect not to
exercise) such rights and remedies, it being understood that notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Second Priority Representative and the Second Priority Secured Parties shall, except as expressly
provided in this Agreement, have the right to enforce their rights and remedies under the Second

not to exercise) such rights and remedies, it is understood that notwithstanding the foregoing, the
First Priority Representative and the First Priority Secured Parties shall have the right to
enforce their rights and remedies under the First Priority Documents.
(d) Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to in any way limit or impair the right of
any First Priority Secured Party or any Second Priority Secured Party to join (but not control) any
Enforcement Action initiated by any other person against the Common Collateral, so long as it does
not delay or interfere in any material respect with the exercise by such other person of its rights
as provided in this Agreement. The foregoing shall not be construed as limiting or otherwise
impairing the right of the First Priority Representative to control any Enforcement Action.
3.2 Standstill and Waivers. The Second Priority Representative, on behalf of
itself and the other Second Priority Secured Parties, agrees that, until the First Priority
Obligations Payment Date has occurred, subject to the proviso set
forth in Section 5.1:

which is to make any Lien in respect of any Second Priority Obligation pari passu with or

12
preference or priority relative to, the Liens with respect to the First Priority Obligations
or the First Priority Secured Parties with respect to any of the Common Collateral;
(ii) subject to Section 4.2, they will not oppose, object to, interfere with,
hinder or delay, in any manner, whether by judicial proceedings (including without limitation the

or other disposition of the Common Collateral by the First Priority Representative or any other
First Priority Secured Party or any other Enforcement Action taken by or on behalf of the First

right, remedy or power with respect to the Common Collateral or pursuant to the First Priority
Documents or to the timing or manner in which any such right is exercised or not exercised (or, to
the extent they may have any such right described in this clause (iii), whether as a junior lien
creditor or otherwise, they hereby irrevocably waive such right);
(iv) they will not institute any suit or other proceeding or assert in any suit,
Insolvency Proceeding or other proceeding any claim against either First Priority Representative or
any other First Priority Secured Party seeking damages from or other relief by way of specific
performance, instructions or otherwise, with respect to, and neither the First Priority
Representative nor any other First Priority Secured Party shall be liable for, any action taken or
omitted to be taken by the First Priority Representative or any other First Priority Secured Party
with respect to the Common Collateral or pursuant to the First Priority Documents;
(v) they will not make any judicial or nonjudicial claim or demand or commence any
judicial or nonjudicial proceedings against any Loan Party or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates
under or with respect to any Second Priority Security Document seeking payment or damages from or

otherwise take any action to enforce, other than filing a proof of claim, any Second Priority
Security Document;

Collateral or pursuant to the Second Priority Security Documents; and
(vii) they will not seek, and hereby waive any right, to have the Common
Collateral or any part thereof marshaled upon any foreclosure or other disposition of the
Common Collateral.
3.3 Judgment Creditors. In the event that any Second Priority Secured Party becomes a
judgment lien creditor in respect of Common Collateral as a result of its enforcement of its rights
as an unsecured creditor, such judgment lien shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement for
all purposes (including in relation to the First Priority Liens and the First Priority Obligations)
to the same extent as all other Liens securing the Second Priority Obligations (created pursuant to
the Second Priority Security Documents) subject to this Agreement.
3.4 Cooperation. The Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the other
Second Priority Secured Parties, agrees that each of them shall take such actions as the First
Priority Representative shall reasonably request in writing in connection with the exercise by the
First Priority Secured Parties of their rights set forth herein.

Section 3.6, if any First Priority Secured Party or Second Priority Secured Party shall
enforce its rights or remedies in violation of the terms of this Agreement, the Borrower shall not

Second Priority Secured Party, nor to assert such violation as a counterclaim or basis for set off
or recoupment against any First Priority Secured Party or Second Priority Secured Party.

this Agreement, commences or participates in any action or proceeding against the Borrower or the
Common Collateral, the Borrower, only with the prior written consent of the First Priority Secured
Representative, may interpose as a defense or dilatory plea the making of this Agreement, and any

or in the name of the Borrower.
(b) Should any Second Priority Secured Party, contrary to this Agreement, in any way
take, attempt to or threaten to take any action with respect to the Common Collateral (including,
without limitation, any attempt to realize upon or enforce any remedy with respect to this
Agreement), or fail to take any action required by this Agreement, any First Priority Secured Party
(in its or their own name or in the name of the Borrower) or the Borrower, only with the prior
written consent of the First Priority Representative, may obtain relief against such Second
Priority Secured Party by injunction, specific performance and/or other appropriate equitable
relief, it being understood and agreed by the Second Priority Representative on behalf of each
Second Priority Secured Party that (i) the First Priority Secured Parties’ damages from its actions
may at that time be difficult to ascertain and may be irreparable, and (ii) each Second Priority
Secured Party waives any defense that the Borrower and/or the First Priority
14
Secured Parties cannot demonstrate damage and/or be made whole by the awarding of damages.

Common Collateral initiated by any Secured Party or at any Section 363 hearing (i) by an all cash
bid or (ii) by a credit bid pursuant to Section 363(k) of the Bankruptcy Code if, in addition to
such credit bid, such bid includes cash consideration payable to the First Priority Parties equal
to the First Priority Obligations;
(d) shall be entitled to file a claim, proof of claim or statement of interest with respect
to the Second Priority Obligations in any Insolvency Proceeding; and
(e) except as provided in Sections 3.1, 3.2, 5.1, 5.2,
5.5, 5.6 and 5.9, may exercise rights and remedies as unsecured creditors
against the Borrower and any other Loan Party, including without limitation filing any pleadings,
objection, motions or agreement which assert right or interests of unsecured creditors, excluding,
prior to the Second Priority Enforcement Date, the right to file an involuntary proceeding under
the Bankruptcy Code, and including the right to file an involuntary proceeding under the Bankruptcy
Code after the occurrence of the Second Priority Enforcement Date (unless the Second Priority
Enforcement Date is deemed not to have occurred pursuant to the definition thereof).
3.8 Option to Purchase.
(a) The First Priority Representative agrees that it will use commercially reasonable
efforts to give the Second Priority Representative written notice (the “Enforcement Notice”) at
least two Business Days prior to commencing any Enforcement Action with respect to a material
portion of the Common Collateral following the acceleration of the First Priority Obligations. Any
Second Priority Secured Party constituting not less than the Required Holders (the “Purchasing
Parties”) shall have the option to purchase all, but not less than all, of the First Priority
Obligations from the First Priority Secured Parties following delivery of irrevocable written
notice
15
(the “Purchase Notice”) by the Second Priority Representative on behalf of the Purchasing Parties
to the First Priority Representative no later than 25 Business Days after (i) commencement of any
Enforcement Action with respect to a material portion of the Common Collateral following the
acceleration of the First Priority Obligations or (ii) the commencement of an Insolvency Proceeding
by or against the Borrower. If the Second Priority Representative on behalf of the Purchasing
Parties so delivers the Purchase Notice, the First Priority Representative shall terminate any
existing Enforcement Actions and shall not take any further Enforcement Actions, provided, that the
Purchase (as defined below) shall have been consummated on the date specified in the Purchase
Notice in accordance with this Section 3.8.
(b) On the date specified by the Second Priority Representative on behalf of the Purchasing
Parties in the Purchase Notice (which shall be a Business Day not less than five Business Days, nor
more than 20 Business Days, after receipt by the First Priority Representative of the Purchase
Notice), the First Priority Secured Parties shall, subject to any required approval of any court or
other governmental authority then in effect, sell to the Purchasing Parties, and the Purchasing
Parties shall purchase (the “Purchase”) from the First Priority Secured Parties, the First Priority
Obligations; provided, that the First Priority Obligations purchased shall not include any
rights of First Priority Secured Parties with respect to indemnification and other obligations of
the Loan Parties under the First Priority Documents that are expressly stated to survive the
termination of the First Priority Documents (the “Surviving Obligations”).
(c) Without limiting the obligations of the Loan Parties under the First Priority Documents to
the First Priority Secured Parties with respect to the Surviving Obligations (which shall not be
transferred in connection with the Purchase), on the date of the Purchase, the Purchasing Parties
shall pay to the First Priority Secured Parties as the purchase price (the “Purchase Price”)
therefor the full amount of all First Priority Obligations then outstanding and unpaid (including
principal, interest, fees, premiums, breakage costs, attorneys’ fees and expenses), and, in the
case of any Hedging Obligations, the amount that would be payable by the relevant Loan Party
thereunder if it were to terminate such Hedging Obligations on the date of the Purchase or, if not
terminated, an amount determined by the relevant First Priority Secured Party to be necessary to
collateralize its credit risk arising out of such Hedging Obligations, (ii) furnish cash collateral
(the “Cash Collateral”) to the First Priority Secured Parties in such amounts as the relevant First
Priority Secured Parties determine is reasonably necessary to secure such First Priority Secured
Parties in connection with any outstanding letters of credit (not to exceed 105% of the aggregate
undrawn face amount of such letters of credit), (iii) agree to reimburse the First Priority Secured
Parties for any loss, cost, damage or expense (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) in
connection with any fees, costs or expenses related to any checks or other payments provisionally
credited to the First Priority Obligations and/or as to which the First Priority Secured Parties
have not yet received final payment and (iv) agree, after written request from the First Priority
Representative, to reimburse the First Priority Secured Parties in respect of indemnification
obligations of the Loan Parties under the First Priority Documents as to matters or circumstances
known to the Purchasing Parties at the time of the Purchase which could reasonably be expected to
result in any loss, cost, damage or expense to any
16
of the First Priority Secured Parties, provided that, in no event shall any Purchasing
Party have any liability for such amounts in excess of proceeds of Common Collateral received by
the Purchasing Parties.
(d) The Purchase Price and Cash Collateral shall be remitted by wire transfer in immediately
available funds to such account of the First Priority Representative as it shall designate to the
Purchasing Parties. The First Priority Representative shall, promptly following its receipt
thereof, distribute the amounts received by it in respect of the Purchase Price to the First
Priority Secured Parties in accordance with the First Priority Agreement. Interest shall be
calculated to but excluding the day on which the Purchase occurs if the amounts so paid by the
Purchasing Parties to the account designated by the First Priority Representative are received in
such account prior to 12:00 Noon, New York City time, and interest shall be calculated to and
including such day if the amounts so paid by the Purchasing Parties to the account designated by
the First Priority Representative are received in such account later than 12:00 Noon, New York City
time.
(e) The Purchase shall be made without representation or warranty of any kind by the First
Priority Secured Parties as to the First Priority Obligations, the Common Collateral or otherwise
and without recourse to the First Priority Secured Parties, except that the First Priority Secured
Parties shall represent and warrant: (i) the amount of the First Priority Obligations being
purchased, (ii) that the First Priority Secured Parties own the First Priority Obligations free and
clear of any liens or encumbrances and (iii) that the First Priority Secured Parties have the right
to assign the First Priority Obligations and the assignment is duly authorized.
3.9 Obligations Following Discharge of First Priority Obligations. Following the
First Priority Obligations Payment Date, the First Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and
the First Priority Secured Parties, agrees that it will not take any action that would hinder any
exercise of remedies undertaken by the Second Priority Representative and the Second Priority
Secured Parties, or any of them, under the Second Priority Documents, including any public or
private sale, lease, exchange, transfer, or other disposition of the Common Collateral, whether by
foreclosure or otherwise. Following the First Priority Obligations Payment Date, the First Priority
Representative, on behalf of itself and the First Priority Secured Parties, hereby waives any and
all rights it may have as a lien creditor or otherwise to contest, protest, object to, interfere
with the manner in which the Second Priority Representative or any of the Second Priority Secured
Parties seeks to enforce the Liens in any portion of the Common Collateral (it being understood and
agreed that the terms of this Agreement shall govern with respect to the Common Collateral even if
any portion of the Liens securing the Second Priority Obligations are avoided, disallowed, set
aside or otherwise invalidated in any judicial proceeding or otherwise). If the First Priority
Obligations Payment Date has occurred, whether or not any Insolvency Proceeding has been commenced
by or against the Borrower or any other Loan Party, any Common Collateral or proceeds thereof
received by the First Priority Representative or any First Priority Secured Parties in
contravention of this Agreement shall be segregated and held in trust and forthwith paid over to
the Second Priority
17
Representative for the benefit of the Second Priority Secured Parties in the same form as received,
with any necessary or reasonably requested endorsements or as a court of competent jurisdiction may
otherwise direct.
SECTION 4. Application Of Proceeds Of Common Collateral; Dispositions And Releases Of Common
Collateral; Inspection and Insurance.
4.1
Application of Proceeds; Turnover Provisions. All proceeds of Common Collateral
(including without limitation any interest earned thereon) resulting from the sale, collection or
other disposition of Common Collateral in connection with or resulting from any Enforcement Action,
and whether or not pursuant to an Insolvency Proceeding, shall be distributed as follows: first to
the First Priority Representative for application to the First Priority Obligations in accordance
with the terms of the First Priority Documents, until the First Priority Obligations Payment Date
has occurred and thereafter, to the Second Priority Representative for application in accordance
with the Second Priority Documents. Until the occurrence of the First Priority Obligations Payment
Date, any Common Collateral, including without limitation any such Common Collateral constituting
proceeds, that may be received by any Second Priority Secured Party in violation of this Agreement
shall be segregated and held in trust and promptly paid over to the First Priority Representative,
for the benefit of the First Priority Secured Parties, in the same form as received, with any
necessary endorsements, and each Second Priority Secured Party hereby authorizes the First Priority
Representative to make any such endorsements as agent for the Second Priority Representative (which
authorization, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable).
4.2 Releases of Second Priority Lien. (a) Upon any release, sale or disposition of
Common Collateral that results in the release of the First Priority Lien on any Common Collateral
and (i) is permitted pursuant to the terms of the Second Priority Documents, (ii) results from any
Enforcement Action taken by the First Priority Secured Parties or (iii) occurs pursuant to a sale
under section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Second Priority Lien on such Common Collateral
(excluding any portion of the proceeds of such Common Collateral remaining after the First Priority
Obligations Payment Date occurs) shall be automatically and unconditionally released with no
further consent or action of any Person.
(b) The Second Priority Representative shall promptly execute and deliver such release
documents and instruments and shall take such further actions, at the expense of the Borrower, as
the First Priority Representative shall reasonably request in writing to evidence any release of
the Second Priority Lien described in paragraph (a). The Second Priority Representative hereby
appoints the First Priority Representative and any officer or duly authorized person of the First
Priority Representative, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney in fact
with full irrevocable power of attorney in the place and stead of the Second Priority
Representative and in the name of the Second Priority Representative or in the First Priority
Representative’s own name, from time to time, in the First Priority Representative’s sole
discretion, for the purposes of carrying out the terms of this paragraph, to take any and all
appropriate action and to execute and deliver any and all documents and instruments as may be
necessary or
18
desirable to accomplish the purposes of this paragraph, including, without limitation, any
financing statements, endorsements, assignments, releases or other documents or instruments of
transfer (which appointment, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable).
4.3 Inspection Rights and Insurance. (a) Subject to Section 4.2 and any express
limitations contained in the First Priority Documents, any First Priority Secured Party and its
representatives and invitees may at any time inspect, repossess, remove and otherwise deal with the
Common Collateral, and the First Priority Representative may advertise and conduct public auctions
or private sales of the Common Collateral, in each case without notice to, the involvement of or
interference by any Second Priority Secured Party or liability to any Second Priority Secured
Party.
(b) Until the First Priority Obligations Payment Date has occurred, the First Priority
Representative will have the sole and exclusive right (i) to adjust or settle any insurance policy
or claim covering the Common Collateral in the event of any loss thereunder and (ii) to approve any
award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding affecting the Common Collateral.
SECTION 5. Insolvency Proceedings.
5.1 Filing of Motions. Except as provided in Section 5.4, solely with respect
to seeking adequate protection, until the First Priority Obligations Payment Date has occurred, the
Second Priority Representative agrees on behalf of itself and the other Second Priority Secured
Parties that no Second Priority Secured Party shall, in or in connection with any Insolvency
Proceeding, file any pleadings or motions, take any position at any hearing or proceeding of any
nature, or otherwise take any action whatsoever, in each case in respect of any of the Common
Collateral, including, without limitation, with respect to the determination of any Liens or claims
held by the First Priority Representative (including the validity and enforceability thereof) or
any other First Priority Secured Party or the value of any claims of such parties under Section
506(a) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise; provided that the Second Priority
Representative may file a proof of claim in an Insolvency Proceeding, subject to the limitations
contained in this Agreement and only if consistent with the terms and the limitations on the Second
Priority Representative imposed hereby.
5.2 Financing Matters. If any Loan Party becomes subject to any Insolvency Proceeding,
and if the First Priority Representative or the First Priority Secured Parties desire to consent
(or not object) to the use of cash collateral under the Bankruptcy Code or to provide financing to
any Loan Party under the Bankruptcy Code (including, without limitation, financing including a
priming Lien under Section 364(d) of the Bankruptcy Code) or to consent (or not object) to the
provision of such financing to any Loan Party by any third party (“DIP Financing”), then the Second
Priority Representative agrees, on behalf of itself and the other Second Priority Secured Parties,
that each Second Priority Secured Party (i) will be deemed to have consented to, will raise no
objection to, nor support any other Person objecting to, the use of such cash collateral or to such
DIP Financing, (ii) will not request or accept adequate protection or any other relief in
19
connection with the use of such cash collateral or such DIP Financing except as set forth in
paragraph 5.4 below, (iii) will subordinate (and will be deemed hereunder to have subordinated) the
Second Priority Liens (x) to such DIP Financing on the same terms as the First Priority Liens are
subordinated thereto (and such subordination will not alter in any manner the terms of this
Agreement), (y) to any adequate protection provided to the First Priority Secured Parties and (z)
to any “carve-out” agreed to by the First Priority Representative or the First Priority Secured
Parties, and (iv) agrees that notice received two (2) calendar days prior to the entry of an order
approving such usage of cash collateral or approving such financing shall be adequate notice;
provided, however that the Second Priority Second Parties may object to a DIP Financing (i)
on the basis that they are not receiving adequate protection permitted under paragraph 5.4 below,
(ii) to the extent the outstanding principal amount of the DIP Financing and the principal amount
of the other First Priority Obligations exceed the Maximum First Priority Obligations Amount or
(iii) if they do not retain a Lien on the Common Collateral or the proceeds thereof at the same
priority as existed prior to the commencement of such Insolvency Proceeding subject to any priming
Lien in such DIP Financing and the priority of the First Priority Liens provided hereunder. No
Second Priority Secured Party shall propose or support any third party who proposes any DIP
Financing without the express written consent of the First Priority Representative, which consent
may be withheld in the sole discretion of the First Priority Representative.
5.3 Relief From the Automatic Stay. The Second Priority Representative agrees, on
behalf of itself and the other Second Priority Secured Parties, that none of them will seek relief
from the automatic stay or from any other stay in any Insolvency Proceeding or take any action in
derogation thereof, in each case in respect of any Common Collateral, without the prior written
consent of the First Priority Representative.
5.4 Adequate Protection. The Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and
the other Second Priority Secured Parties, agrees that none of them shall object, contest, or
support any other Person objecting to or contesting, (i) any request by the First Priority
Representative or the First Priority Secured Parties for adequate protection or (ii) any objection
by the First Priority Representative or any other First Priority Secured Parties to any motion,
relief, action or proceeding based on a claim of a lack of adequate protection or (iii) the payment
of interest, fees, expenses or other amounts to the First Priority Representative or any other
First Priority Secured Party under Section 506(b) or 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise.
Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section and in Section 5.2, in any Insolvency
Proceeding, (x) if the First Priority Secured Parties (or any subset thereof) are granted adequate
protection in the form of additional collateral or superpriority claims in connection with any DIP
Financing or use of cash collateral, and the First Priority Secured Parties do not object to the
adequate protection being provided to them, then the Second Priority Representative, on behalf of
itself and any of the Second Priority Secured Parties, may seek or accept adequate protection
solely in the form of (A) a replacement Lien on such additional collateral, subordinated to the
Liens securing the First Priority Obligations and such DIP Financing on the same basis as the other
Liens securing the Second Priority Obligations are so subordinated to the First Priority
Obligations under this Agreement, (B) accrual (but not current payment) of interest on the Second
Priority Secured Obligations, and (C) payment of reasonable
20
professional fees and expenses of the Second Priority Representative, and (y) in the event the
Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the Second Priority Secured Parties, seeks
or requests adequate protection and such adequate protection is granted in the form of additional
collateral, then the Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself or any of the Second
Priority Secured Parties, agrees that the First Priority Representative shall also be granted a
senior Lien on such additional collateral as security for the First Priority Obligations and any
such DIP Financing and that any Lien on such additional collateral securing the Second Priority
Obligations shall be subordinated to the Liens on such collateral securing the First Priority
Obligations and any such DIP Financing (and all obligations relating thereto) and any other Liens
granted to the First Priority Secured Parties as adequate protection, with such subordination to be
on the same terms that the other Liens securing the Second Priority Obligations are subordinated to
such First Priority Obligations under this Agreement.
5.5
Avoidance Issues. (a) If any First Priority Secured Party is required in any
Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise to disgorge, turn over or otherwise pay to the estate of any
Loan Party, because such amount was avoided or ordered to be paid or disgorged for any reason,
including without limitation because it was found to be a fraudulent or preferential transfer, any
amount (a “Recovery”), whether received as proceeds of security, enforcement of any right of
set-off or otherwise, then the First Priority Obligations shall be reinstated to the extent of such
Recovery and deemed to be outstanding as if such payment had not occurred and the First Priority
Obligations Payment Date shall be deemed not to have occurred. If this Agreement shall have been
terminated prior to such Recovery, this Agreement shall be reinstated in full force and effect, and
such prior termination shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair or otherwise affect the
obligations of the parties hereto. The Second Priority Secured Parties agree that none of them
shall be entitled to benefit from any avoidance action affecting or otherwise relating to any
distribution or allocation made in accordance with this Agreement, whether by preference or
otherwise, it being understood and agreed that the benefit of such avoidance action otherwise
allocable to them shall instead be allocated and turned over for application in accordance with the
priorities set forth in this Agreement.
5.6 Asset Dispositions in an Insolvency Proceeding. Neither the Second Priority
Representative nor any other Second Priority Secured Party shall, in an Insolvency Proceeding or
otherwise, oppose any sale or disposition of any assets of any Loan Party that is supported by the
First Priority Required Lenders, and the Second Priority Representative and each other Second
Priority Required Lenders will be deemed to have consented under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code
(and otherwise) to any sale supported by the First Priority Secured Parties and to have released
their Liens in such assets.
5.7 Separate Grants of Security and Separate Classification. Each Second Priority
Secured Party acknowledges and agrees that (i) the grants of Liens pursuant to the First Priority
Security Documents and the Second Priority Security Documents constitute two separate and distinct
grants of Liens and (ii) because of, among other things, their differing rights in the Common
Collateral, the Second Priority Obligations
21
are fundamentally different from the First Priority Obligations and must be separately classified
in any plan of reorganization proposed or adopted in an Insolvency Proceeding. To further
effectuate the intent of the parties as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, if it is
held that the claims of the First Priority Secured Parties and Second Priority Secured Parties in
respect of the Common Collateral constitute only one secured claim (rather than separate classes of
senior and junior secured claims), then the Second Priority Secured Parties hereby acknowledge and
agree that all distributions shall be made as if there were separate classes of senior and junior
secured claims against the Loan Parties in respect of the Common Collateral (with the effect being
that, to the extent that the aggregate value of the Common Collateral is sufficient (for this
purpose ignoring all claims held by the Second Priority Secured Parties), the First Priority
Secured Parties shall be entitled to receive, in addition to amounts distributed to them in respect
of principal, pre-petition interest and other claims, all amounts owing in respect of Post-Petition
Interest before any distribution is made in respect of the claims held by the Second Priority
Secured Parties, with the Second Priority Secured Parties hereby acknowledging and agreeing to rum
over to the First Priority Secured Parties amounts otherwise received or receivable by them to the
extent necessary to effectuate the intent of this sentence, even if such turnover has the effect of
reducing the claim or recovery of the Second Priority Secured Parties).
5.8 No Waivers of Rights of First Priority Secured Parties. Subject to Section 2.1(b), nothing contained herein shall prohibit or in any way limit the First Priority
Representative or any other First Priority Secured Party from objecting in any Insolvency
Proceeding or otherwise to any action taken by any Second Priority Secured Party, including the
seeking by any Second Priority Secured Party of adequate protection or the asserting by any Second
Priority Secured Party of any of its rights and remedies under the Second Priority Documents or
otherwise.
5.9 Plans of Reorganization. The Second Priority Secured Parties may propose, vote on,
file and prosecute, object to, and make other filings with regard to, any plan of reorganization,
unless such action would directly or indirectly result in a violation of this Agreement, whether
directly by any Second Priority Secured Party or as a result of confirmation of such plan.
5.10 Other Matters. (a) To the extent that the Second Priority Representative or any
Second Priority Secured Party has or acquires rights under Section 363 or Section 364 of the
Bankruptcy Code with respect to any of the Common Collateral, the Second Priority Representative
agrees, on behalf of itself and the other Second Priority Secured Parties not to assert any of such
rights without the prior written consent of the First Priority Representative; provided that if
requested in writing by the First Priority Representative, the Second Priority Representative shall
timely exercise such rights in the manner requested by the First Priority Representative, including
any rights to payments in respect of such rights.
5.11 Effectiveness in Insolvency Proceedings. This Agreement, which the parties
hereto expressly acknowledge is a “subordination agreement” under section 510(a) of the
Bankruptcy Code, shall be effective before, during and after the
22
commencement of an Insolvency Proceeding. All references in this Agreement to any Loan Party
shall include such Loan Party as a debtor-in-possession and any receiver or trustee for such
Loan Party in any Insolvency Proceeding.
SECTION 6. Second Priority Documents and First Priority Documents.
(a) Each Loan Party and the Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the Second
Priority Secured Parties, agrees that it shall not at any time execute or deliver any amendment or
other modification to any of the Second Priority Documents inconsistent with or in violation of
this Agreement.
(b) The First Priority Obligations may be amended, waived, increased, extended, renewed,
replaced, refinanced or secured with additional collateral (provided that both the First Priority
Liens and the Second Priority Liens shall attach to such additional collateral) without affecting
the lien priorities of the First Priority Liens and the Second Priority Liens, subject to the
covenants in the First Priority Documents and the Second Priority Documents; provided that no such
amendment, waiver, increase, extension, renewal, replacement or refinancing shall increase the
principal amount of the First Priority Obligations to an amount in excess of the Maximum First
Priority Obligations Amount.
(c) Until the First Priority Obligations Payment Date has occurred, and notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in the Second Priority Documents, the Second Priority Secured
Parties shall not, without the prior written consent of the First Priority Representative, agree to
any amendment, restatement, modification, supplement, substitution, renewal or replacement of or to
any or all of the Second Priority Documents to (i) shorten the maturity of the Second Priority
Obligations to be sooner than 91 days following the scheduled maturity date of the First Priority
Obligations under the Existing First Priority Agreement or (ii) impose any amortization payments of
principal in respect of the Second Priority Obligations and/or add any additional mandatory
principal prepayments (or offers to prepay) the Second Priority Obligations, in each case, prior to
the scheduled maturity date of the First Priority Obligations under the Existing First Priority
Agreement.
SECTION 7. Reliance; Waivers; etc.
7.1 Reliance. The First Priority Documents are deemed to have been executed and
delivered, and all extensions of credit thereunder are deemed to have been made or incurred, in
reliance upon this Agreement. The Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the
Second Priority Secured Parties, expressly waives all notice of the acceptance of and reliance on
this Agreement by the First Priority Secured Parties. The Second Priority Documents are deemed to
have been executed and delivered and all extensions of credit thereunder are deemed to have been
made or incurred, in reliance upon this Agreement. The First Priority Representative, on behalf of
itself and First Priority Secured Parties, expressly waives all notices of the acceptance of and

collectibility or enforceability of any First Priority Document or any Second Priority Document.
Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Second Priority Representative and the First
Priority Representative will be entitled to manage and supervise their respective extensions of
credit to any Loan Party in accordance with law and their usual practices, modified from time to
time as they deem appropriate.
7.3 No Waivers. No right or benefit of any party hereunder shall at any time in any
way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of such party or any other
party hereto or by any noncompliance by any Loan Party with the terms and conditions of any of the
First Priority Documents or the Second Priority Documents.
SECTION 8. Obligations Unconditional.
8.1 First Priority Obligations Unconditional. All rights of the First Priority
Representative hereunder, and all agreements and obligations of the Second Priority Representative,
the Borrower and the other Loan Parties (to the extent applicable) hereunder, shall remain in full

Agreement.

Document;
(ii) any change in the time, place or manner of payment of, or in any other term
of, all or any portion of the Second Priority Obligations, or any amendment, waiver or
