ARTICLE II. AMOUNT AND TERMS OF CREDIT
Section 2.1. Amount and Nature of Credit.
(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Lenders, during the Commitment
Period and to the extent hereinafter provided, shall make Loans to Borrowers, participate in Swing
Loans made by the Swing Line Lender to Borrowers, and issue or participate in Letters of Credit at
the request of Borrowers, in such aggregate amount as Borrowers shall request pursuant to the
Commitment; provided that in no event shall the
40
aggregate principal amount of all Loans and Letters of Credit outstanding under this Agreement be
in excess of the Total Commitment Amount.
(b) Each Lender, for itself and not one for any other, agrees to make Loans, participate in
Swing Loans, and issue or participate in Letters of Credit, during the Commitment Period, on such
basis that, immediately after the completion of any borrowing by Borrowers or the issuance of a
Letter of Credit:
(i) the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Loans made
by such Lender (other than Swing Loans made by the Swing Line Lender), when combined with
such Lender’s pro rata share, if any, of the Letter of Credit Exposure and the Swing Line
Exposure, shall not be in excess of the Maximum Amount for such Lender, provided that the
Maximum Amount for the Swing Line Lender shall exclude the Swing Line Commitment (other than
its pro rata share), and the Maximum Amount of a Fronting Lender shall exclude the Letter of
Credit Commitment (other than its pro rata share); and
(ii) with respect to each Specific Commitment, the aggregate outstanding principal
amount of Loans (other than Swing Loans) made by such Lender with respect to such Specific
Commitment shall represent that percentage of the aggregate principal amount then
outstanding on all Loans (other than Swing Loans) within such Specific Commitment that shall
be such Lender’s Applicable Commitment Percentage.
Within each Specific Commitment, each borrowing (other than Swing Loans which shall be risk
participated on a pro rata basis) from the Lenders shall be made pro rata according to the
respective Applicable Commitment Percentages of the Lenders.
(c) The Loans may be made as Revolving Loans as described in Section 2.2(a) hereof, and as the
Term Loan as described in Section 2.3 hereof, as Swing Loans as described in Section 2.2(c) hereof,
and Letters of Credit may be issued in accordance with Section 2.2(b) hereof.
Section 2.2. Revolving Credit Commitment.
(a) Revolving Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, during
the Commitment Period, the Revolving Lenders shall make a Revolving Loan or Revolving Loans to
Borrowers in such amount or amounts as Administrative Borrower, through an Authorized Officer, may
from time to time request, but not exceeding in aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding
hereunder the Revolving Credit Commitment, when such Revolving Loans are combined with the Letter
of Credit Exposure and the Swing Line Exposure; provided that Borrowers shall not request any
Alternate Currency Loan (and the Lenders shall not be obligated to make an Alternate Currency Loan)
if, after giving effect thereto, the Alternate Currency Exposure would exceed the Alternate
Currency Maximum Amount. Borrowers shall have the option, subject to the terms and conditions set
forth herein, to borrow Revolving Loans, maturing on the last day of the Commitment Period, by
means of any combination of Base Rate Loans, Eurodollar Loans or Alternate Currency Loans. With
respect to each Alternate Currency
41
Loan, subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, Borrowers shall receive all of the
proceeds of such Alternate Currency Loan in one Alternate Currency and repay such Alternate
Currency Loan in the same Alternate Currency. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement,
Borrowers shall be entitled under this Section 2.2(a) to borrow Revolving Loans, repay the same in
whole or in part and re-borrow Revolving Loans hereunder at any time and from time to time during
the Commitment Period.
(b) Letters of Credit.
(i) Generally. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, during
the Commitment Period, Agent (or another Fronting Lender if agreed to by Agent) shall, in
its own name, on behalf of the Revolving Lenders, issue such Letters of Credit for the
account of a Credit Party, as Administrative Borrower may from time to time request.
Administrative Borrower shall not request any Letter of Credit (and the Fronting Lenders
shall not be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit) if, after giving effect thereto, (A)
the Letter of Credit Exposure would exceed the Letter of Credit Commitment, (B) the
Revolving Credit Exposure would exceed the Revolving Credit Commitment, or (C) with respect
to a request for a Letter of Credit to be issued in an Alternate Currency, the Alternate
Currency Exposure would exceed the Alternate Currency Maximum Amount. The issuance of each
Letter of Credit shall confer upon each Revolving Lender the benefits and liabilities of a
participation consisting of an undivided pro rata interest in the Letter of Credit to the
extent of such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Commitment Percentage.
(ii) Request for Letter of Credit. Each request for a Letter of Credit shall
be delivered to Agent (and to the applicable Fronting Lender, if such Fronting Lender is a
Lender other than Agent) by an Authorized Officer not later than 11:00 A.M. (Eastern time)
three Business Days prior to the date of the proposed issuance of the Letter of Credit.
Each such request shall be in a form acceptable to Agent (and the applicable Fronting
Lender, if such Fronting Lender is a Lender other than Agent) and shall specify the face
amount thereof, whether such Letter of Credit is a commercial documentary or a standby
Letter of Credit, the account party, the beneficiary, the requested date of issuance,
amendment, renewal or extension, the expiry date thereof, the Alternate Currency if a Letter
of Credit denominated in an Alternate Currency is requested, and the nature of the
transaction or obligation to be supported thereby. Concurrently with each such request,
Administrative Borrower, and any Credit Party for whose account the Letter of Credit is to
be issued, shall execute and deliver to the Fronting Lender issuing such Letter of Credit an
appropriate application and agreement, being in the standard form of such Fronting Lender
for such letters of credit, as amended to conform to the provisions of this Agreement if
required by Agent. Agent shall give the Fronting Lender and each Revolving Lender notice of
each such request for a Letter of Credit.
(iii) Commercial Documentary Letters of Credit. With respect to each Letter of
Credit that shall be a commercial documentary letter of credit and the drafts thereunder,
whether issued for the account of a Borrower or any other Credit Party, Borrowers agree to
(A) pay to Agent, for the pro rata benefit of the Revolving Lenders, a
42
non-refundable commission based upon the face amount of such Letter of Credit, which shall
be paid quarterly in arrears, on each Regularly Scheduled Payment Date, at a rate per annum
equal to three hundred twenty-five (325.00) basis points multiplied by the face amount of
such Letter of Credit; (B) pay to Agent, for the sole benefit of the Fronting Lender issuing
such Letter of Credit, the Fronting Lender Fee; and (C) pay to Agent, for the sole benefit
of the Fronting Lender issuing such Letter of Credit, such other issuance, amendment,
renewal, negotiation, draw, acceptance, telex, courier, postage and similar transactional
fees as are customarily charged by such Fronting Lender in respect of the issuance and
administration of similar letters of credit under its fee schedule as in effect from time to
time.
(iv) Standby Letters of Credit. With respect to each Letter of Credit that
shall be a standby letter of credit and the drafts thereunder, if any, whether issued for
the account of a Borrower or any other Credit Party, Borrowers agree to (A) pay to Agent,
for the pro rata benefit of the Revolving Lenders, a non-refundable commission based upon
the face amount of such Letter of Credit, which shall be paid quarterly in arrears, on each
Regularly Scheduled Payment Date, at a rate per annum equal to three hundred twenty-five
(325.00) basis points multiplied by the face amount of such Letter of Credit; (B) pay to
Agent, for the sole benefit of the Fronting Lender issuing such Letter of Credit, the
Fronting Lender Fee; and (C) pay to Agent, for the sole benefit of the Fronting Lender
issuing such Letter of Credit, such other issuance, amendment, renewal, negotiation, draw,
acceptance, telex, courier, postage and similar transactional fees as are customarily
charged by such Fronting Lender in respect of the issuance and administration of similar
letters of credit under its fee schedule as in effect from time to time.
(v) Refunding of Letters of Credit with Revolving Loans. Whenever a Letter of
Credit shall be drawn, Borrowers shall reimburse the Fronting Lender for the amount drawn.
In the event that the amount drawn shall not have been reimbursed by Borrowers within one
Business Day of the date of the drawing of such Letter of Credit, at the sole option of
Agent (and the Fronting Lender, if the Fronting Lender is a Lender other than Agent),
Borrowers shall be deemed to have requested a Revolving Loan, subject to the provisions of
Sections 2.2(a) and 2.6 hereof (other than the requirement set forth in Section 2.6(d)
hereof), in the amount drawn. Such Revolving Loan shall be evidenced by the Revolving
Credit Notes (or, if a Lender has not requested a Revolving Credit Note, by the records of
Agent and such Lender). Each Revolving Lender agrees to make a Revolving Loan on the date
of such notice, subject to no conditions precedent whatsoever. Each Revolving Lender
acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to make a Revolving Loan pursuant to Section
2.2(a) hereof when required by this Section 2.2(b)(v) shall be absolute and unconditional
and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including, without limitation, the
occurrence and continuance of a Default or Event of Default, and that its payment to Agent,
for the account of the Fronting Lender that issued such Letter of Credit, of the proceeds of
such Revolving Loan shall be made without any offset, abatement, recoupment, counterclaim,
withholding or reduction whatsoever and whether or not the Revolving Credit Commitment shall
have been reduced or terminated. Borrowers irrevocably authorize
43
and instruct Agent to apply the proceeds of any borrowing pursuant to this Section 2.2(b)(v)
to reimburse, in full (other than such Fronting Lender’s pro rata share of such borrowing),
such Fronting Lender for the amount drawn on such Letter of Credit. Each such Revolving
Loan shall be deemed to be a Base Rate Loan unless otherwise requested by and available to
Borrowers hereunder. Each Revolving Lender is hereby authorized to record on its records
relating to its Revolving Credit Note (or, if such Lender has not requested a Revolving
Credit Note, its records relating to Revolving Loans) such Revolving Lender’s pro rata share
of the amounts paid and not reimbursed on the Letters of Credit.
(vi) Participation in Letters of Credit. If, for any reason, Agent (and the
applicable Fronting Lender if such Fronting Lender is a Lender other than Agent) shall be
unable to or, in the opinion of Agent, it shall be impracticable to, convert any Letter of
Credit to a Revolving Loan pursuant to the preceding subsection, or if the amount not
reimbursed is a Letter of Credit drawn in an Alternate Currency, Agent (and such Fronting
Lender if the Fronting Lender is a Lender other than Agent) shall have the right to request
that each Revolving Lender fund a participation in the amount due with respect to such
Letter of Credit, and Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Lender thereof (by
facsimile or email (confirmed by telephone) or telephone (confirmed in writing)). Upon such
notice, but without further action, such Fronting Lender hereby agrees to grant to each
Revolving Lender, and each Revolving Lender hereby agrees to acquire from such Fronting
Lender, an undivided participation interest in the amount due with respect to such Letter of
Credit in an amount equal to such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Commitment Percentage of the
principal amount due with respect to such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in
furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally
agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to Agent, for the account of such
Fronting Lender, such Revolving Lender’s ratable share of the amount due with respect to
such Letter of Credit (determined in accordance with such Revolving Lender’s Applicable
Commitment Percentage). Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation
to acquire participations in the amount due under any Letter of Credit that is drawn but not
reimbursed by Borrowers pursuant to this subsection (vi) shall be absolute and unconditional
and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including, without limitation, the
occurrence and continuance of a Default or Event of Default, and that each such payment
shall be made without any offset, abatement, recoupment, counterclaim, withholding or
reduction whatsoever and whether or not the Revolving Credit Commitment shall have been
reduced or terminated. Each Revolving Lender shall comply with its obligation under this
subsection (vi) by wire transfer of immediately available funds (in Dollars, except in the
case of a Letter of Credit issued and drawn in an Alternate Currency, and, in such case, in
such Alternate Currency), in the same manner as provided in Section 2.6 hereof with respect
to Revolving Loans. Each Revolving Lender is hereby authorized to record on its records
such Revolving Lender’s pro rata share of the amounts paid and not reimbursed on the Letters
of Credit. In addition, each Lender agrees to risk participate in the Existing Letters of
Credit as provided in subsection (vii) below.
44
(vii) Existing Letters of Credit. Schedule 2.2 hereto contains a
description of all letters of credit (including the Bond Letter of Credit) outstanding on,
and to continue in effect after, the Closing Date. Each such letter of credit issued by a
bank that is or becomes a Revolving Lender (provided that, for purposes of this Agreement,
the Bond Letter of Credit shall be deemed to have been issued by BMO Capital Markets
Financing, Inc. (or any of its affiliates that may become a Revolving Lender under this
Agreement) through its affiliate, Xxxxxx X.X.) under this Agreement on the Closing Date
(each, an “Existing Letter of Credit”) shall constitute a “Letter of Credit” for all
purposes of this Agreement, issued, for purposes of Section 2.2(b)(vi) hereof, on the
Closing Date. Borrowers, Agent and the Revolving Lenders hereby agree that, from and after
such date, the terms of this Agreement shall apply to the Existing Letters of Credit,
superseding any other agreement theretofore applicable to them to the extent inconsistent
with the terms hereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any reimbursement
agreement applicable to the Existing Letters of Credit, the fees payable in connection with
each Existing Letter of Credit to be shared with the Revolving Lenders shall accrue from the
Closing Date at the rates provided in Section 2.2(b)(iii) and (iv) hereof.
(viii) Auto-Renewal Letters of Credit. If Administrative Borrower so requests,
a Letter of Credit shall have an automatic renewal provision; provided that any Letter of
Credit that has an automatic renewal provision must permit Agent (or the applicable Fronting
Lender if such Fronting Lender is a Lender other than Agent) to prevent any such renewal by
giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than thirty (30) days prior to the
renewal date of such Letter of Credit. Once any such Letter of Credit that has automatic
renewal provisions has been issued, the Revolving Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized
(but may not require) Agent (and such Fronting Lender) to permit at any time the renewal of
such Letter of Credit to an expiry date not later than one year after the last day of the
Commitment Period.
(ix) Letters of Credit Outstanding Beyond the Commitment Period. If any Letter
of Credit is outstanding upon the termination of the Commitment, then, upon such
termination, Borrowers shall deposit with Agent, for the benefit of the Fronting Lender,
with respect to all outstanding Letters of Credit, either cash or a Supporting Letter of
Credit, which, in each case, is (A) in an amount equal to one hundred five percent (105%) of
the undrawn amount of the outstanding Letters of Credit, and (B) free and clear of all
rights and claims of third parties. The cash shall be deposited in an escrow account at a
financial institution designated by the applicable Fronting Lender. Such Fronting Lender
shall be entitled to withdraw (with respect to the cash) or draw (with respect to the
Supporting Letter of Credit) amounts necessary to reimburse such Fronting Lender for
payments to be made under the Letters of Credit and any fees and expenses associated with
such Letters of Credit, or incurred pursuant to the reimbursement agreements with respect to
such Letters of Credit. Borrowers shall also execute such documentation as Agent or the
applicable Fronting Lender may reasonably require in connection with the survival of the
Letters of Credit beyond the Commitment or this Agreement. After expiration of all undrawn
Letters of Credit, the Supporting Letter of Credit or the remainder of the cash, as the case
may be, shall promptly be returned to Administrative Borrower.
45
(x) Requests for Letters of Credit where One or More Revolving Lenders are Affected
Lenders. No Letter of Credit shall be requested or issued hereunder if any Revolving
Lender is at such time an Affected Lender hereunder, unless Agent (and the applicable
Fronting Lender) has entered into satisfactory (to Agent) arrangements, including, without
limitation, the posting of cash collateral, with Borrowers or such Revolving Lender to
eliminate the reimbursement risk with respect to such Affected Lender.
(c) Swing Loans.
(i) Generally. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, during
the Commitment Period, the Swing Line Lender shall make a Swing Loan or Swing Loans to
Borrowers in such amount or amounts as Administrative Borrower, through an Authorized
Officer, may from time to time request; provided that Administrative Borrower shall not
request any Swing Loan if, after giving effect thereto, (A) the Revolving Credit Exposure
would exceed the Revolving Credit Commitment, or (B) the Swing Line Exposure would exceed
the Swing Line Commitment. Each Swing Loan shall be due and payable on the Swing Loan
Maturity Date applicable thereto. Each Swing Loan shall be made in Dollars.
(ii) Refunding of Swing Loans. If the Swing Line Lender so elects, by giving
notice to Administrative Borrower and the Revolving Lenders, Borrowers agree that the Swing
Line Lender shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to require that any Swing Loan be
refinanced as a Revolving Loan. Such Revolving Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan unless
otherwise requested by and available to Borrowers hereunder. Upon receipt of such notice by
Administrative Borrower and the Revolving Lenders, Borrowers shall be deemed, on such day,
to have requested a Revolving Loan in the principal amount of the Swing Loan in accordance
with Sections 2.2(a) and 2.6 hereof (other than the requirement set forth in Section 2.6(d)
hereof). Such Revolving Loan shall be evidenced by the Revolving Credit Notes (or, if a
Revolving Lender has not requested a Revolving Credit Note, by the records of Agent and such
Revolving Lender). Each Revolving Lender agrees to make a Revolving Loan on the date of
such notice, subject to no conditions precedent whatsoever. Each Revolving Lender
acknowledges and agrees that such Revolving Lender’s obligation to make a Revolving Loan
pursuant to Section 2.2(a) hereof when required by this Section 2.2(c)(ii) is absolute and
unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including, without
limitation, the occurrence and continuance of a Default or Event of Default, and that its
payment to Agent, for the account of the Swing Line Lender, of the proceeds of such
Revolving Loan shall be made without any offset, abatement, recoupment, counterclaim,
withholding or reduction whatsoever and whether or not the Revolving Credit Commitment shall
have been reduced or terminated. Borrowers irrevocably authorize and instruct Agent to
apply the proceeds of any borrowing pursuant to this Section 2.2(c)(ii) to repay in full
such Swing Loan. Each Revolving Lender is hereby authorized to record on its records
relating to its Revolving Credit Note (or, if such Revolving Lender has not requested a
46
Revolving Credit Note, its records relating to Revolving Loans) such Revolving Lender’s pro
rata share of the amounts paid to refund such Swing Loan.
(iii) Participation in Swing Loans. If, for any reason, Agent is unable to or,
in the opinion of Agent, it is impracticable to, convert any Swing Loan to a Revolving Loan
pursuant to the preceding Section 2.2(c)(ii), then on any day that a Swing Loan is
outstanding (whether before or after the maturity thereof), Agent shall have the right to
request that each Revolving Lender fund a participation in such Swing Loan, and Agent shall
promptly notify each Revolving Lender thereof (by facsimile or email (confirmed by
telephone) or telephone (confirmed in writing)). Upon such notice, but without further
action, the Swing Line Lender hereby agrees to grant to each Revolving Lender, and each
Revolving Lender hereby agrees to acquire from the Swing Line Lender, an undivided
participation interest in the right to share in the payment of such Swing Loan in an amount
equal to such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Commitment Percentage of the principal amount of
such Swing Loan. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving
Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided
above, to pay to Agent, for the benefit of the Swing Line Lender, such Revolving Lender’s
ratable share of such Swing Loan (determined in accordance with such Revolving Lender’s
Applicable Commitment Percentage). Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its
obligation to acquire participations in Swing Loans pursuant to this Section 2.2(c)(iii) is
absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever,
including, without limitation, the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of
Default, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, recoupment,
counterclaim, withholding or reduction whatsoever and whether or not the Revolving Credit
Commitment shall have been reduced or terminated. Each Revolving Lender shall comply with
its obligation under this Section 2.2(c)(iii) by wire transfer of immediately available
funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.6 hereof with respect to Revolving Loans
to be made by such Revolving Lender.
(iv) Requests for Swing Loan where One or More Revolving Lenders are Affected
Lenders. No Swing Loan shall be requested or issued hereunder if any Revolving Lender
is at such time an Affected Lender hereunder, unless Agent has entered into satisfactory (to
Agent) arrangements, including, without limitation, the posting of cash collateral, with
Borrowers or such Revolving Lender to eliminate the reimbursement risk with respect to such
Affected Lender.
Section 2.3. Term Loan Commitment. The Term Loan was made to Borrowers on the
Original Closing Date. As of the Closing Date, the Term Lenders hold the Term Loan in the amount
of the Term Loan Commitment, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The Term Loan
is hereafter payable in thirteen (13) consecutive quarterly installments of Five Hundred
Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars ($575,000), commencing September 30, 2009, and continuing on each
Regularly Scheduled Payment Date thereafter, with the balance thereof payable in full on December
8, 2012. Administrative Borrower shall notify Agent, in accordance with the notice provisions of
Section 2.6 hereof, whether the Term Loan will be a Base Rate
47
Loan or one or more Eurodollar Loans. The Term Loan may be a mixture of a Base Rate Loan and
Eurodollar Loans.
Section 2.4. Interest.
(a) Revolving Loans.
(i) Base Rate Loans. Borrowers shall pay interest on the unpaid principal
amount of a Revolving Loan that is a Base Rate Loan outstanding from time to time from the
date thereof until paid at the Derived Base Rate for Revolving Loans from time to time in
effect. Interest on such Base Rate Loan shall be payable, commencing September 30, 2009,
and continuing on each Regularly Scheduled Payment Date thereafter and at the maturity
thereof.
(ii) Eurodollar Loans. Borrowers shall pay interest on the unpaid principal
amount of each Revolving Loan that is a Eurodollar Loan outstanding from time to time, fixed
in advance on the first day of the Interest Period applicable thereto through the last day
of the Interest Period applicable thereto, at the Derived Eurodollar Rate for Revolving
Loans. Interest on such Eurodollar Loan shall be payable on each Interest Adjustment Date
with respect to an Interest Period (provided that if an Interest Period shall exceed three
months, the interest must be paid every three months, commencing three months from the
beginning of such Interest Period).
(iii) Alternate Currency Loans. Borrowers shall pay interest on the unpaid
principal amount of each Revolving Loan that is an Alternate Currency Loan outstanding from
time to time, fixed in advance on the first day of the Interest Period applicable thereto
through the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, at the Derived Alternate
Currency Rate. Interest on such Alternate Currency Loan shall be payable on each Interest
Adjustment Date with respect to an Interest Period (provided that if an Interest Period
shall exceed three months, the interest must be paid every three months, commencing three
months from the beginning of such Interest Period).
(b) Swing Loans. Borrowers shall pay interest to Agent, for the sole benefit of the
Swing Line Lender (and any Revolving Lender that shall have purchased a participation in such Swing
Loan), on the unpaid principal amount of each Swing Loan outstanding from time to time from the
date thereof until paid at the Derived Base Rate for Revolving Loans from time to time in effect.
Interest on Swing Loans shall be payable on each Regularly Scheduled Payment Date. Each Swing Loan
shall bear interest for a minimum of one day.
(c) Term Loan.
(i) Base Rate Loan. With respect to any portion of the Term Loan that is a
Base Rate Loan, Borrowers shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof
outstanding from time to time from the date thereof until paid, commencing September 30,
2009, and continuing on each Regularly Scheduled Payment Date thereafter and at
48
the maturity thereof, at the Derived Base Rate for the Term Loan from time to time in
effect.
(ii) Eurodollar Loans. With respect to any portion of the Term Loan that is a
Eurodollar Loan, Borrowers shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of such
Eurodollar Loan outstanding from time to time, fixed in advance on the first day of the
Interest Period applicable thereto through the last day of the Interest Period applicable
thereto, at the Derived Eurodollar Rate for the Term Loan. Interest on such Eurodollar Loan
shall be payable on each Interest Adjustment Date with respect to an Interest Period
(provided that if an Interest Period shall exceed three months, the interest must be paid
every three months, commencing three months from the beginning of such Interest Period).
(d) Default Rate. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if an Event of
Default shall occur, upon the election of Agent or the Required Lenders (i) the principal of each
Loan and the unpaid interest thereon shall bear interest, until paid, at the Default Rate, (ii) the
fee for the aggregate undrawn amount of all issued and outstanding Letters of Credit shall be
increased by two percent (2%) in excess of the rate otherwise applicable thereto, and (iii) in the
case of any other amount not paid when due from Borrowers hereunder or under any other Loan
Document, such amount shall bear interest at the Default Rate; provided that, during an Event of
Default under Section 8.1 or 8.12 hereof, the applicable Default Rate shall apply without any
election or action on the part of Agent or any Lender.
(e) Limitation on Interest. In no event shall the rate of interest hereunder exceed
the maximum rate allowable by law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan
Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the
maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable law (the “Maximum Rate”). If Agent
or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess
interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal,
refunded to the Administrative Borrower for distribution to Borrowers, as appropriate. In
determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by Agent or a Lender exceeds
the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (i) characterize any
payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (ii) exclude
voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (iii) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in
equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the
Obligations.
Section 2.5. Evidence of Indebtedness.
(a) Revolving Loans. Upon the request of a Revolving Lender, to evidence the
obligation of Borrowers to repay the Revolving Loans made by such Revolving Lender and to pay
interest thereon, Borrowers shall execute a Revolving Credit Note, payable to the order of such
Revolving Lender in the principal amount equal to its Applicable Commitment Percentage of the
Revolving Credit Commitment Amount, or, if less, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of Revolving
Loans made by such Revolving Lender; provided that the failure of a Revolving
49
Lender to request a Revolving Credit Note shall in no way detract from Borrowers’ obligations to
such Revolving Lender hereunder.
(b) Swing Loans. Upon the request of the Swing Line Lender, to evidence the
obligation of Borrowers to repay the Swing Loans and to pay interest thereon, Borrowers shall
execute a Swing Line Note, payable to the order of the Swing Line Lender in the principal amount of
the Swing Line Commitment, or, if less, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of Swing Loans made
by the Swing Line Lender; provided that the failure of the Swing Line Lender to request a Swing
Line Note shall in no way detract from Borrowers’ obligations to the Swing Line Lender hereunder.
(c) Term Loan. Upon the request of a Term Lender, to evidence the obligation of
Borrowers to repay the portion of the Term Loan made by such Term Lender and to pay interest
thereon, Borrowers shall execute a Term Note, payable to the order of such Term Lender in the
principal amount of its Applicable Commitment Percentage of the Term Loan Exposure; provided that
the failure of such Term Lender to request a Term Note shall in no way detract from Borrowers’
obligations to such Term Lender hereunder.
Section 2.6. Notice of Credit Event; Funding of Loans.
(a) Notice of Credit Event. Administrative Borrower, through an Authorized Officer,
shall provide to Agent a Notice of Loan prior to (i) 11:00 A.M. (Eastern time) on the proposed date

Line Lender); provided, however, that an Authorized Officer of Administrative Borrower may verbally
request a Loan, so long as a Notice of Loan is received by the end of the same Business Day, and,
if Agent or any Lender provides funds or initiates funding based upon such verbal request,
Administrative Borrower shall bear the risk with respect to any information regarding such funding
that is later determined to have been incorrect. Borrowers shall comply with the notice provisions
set forth in Section 2.2(b) hereof with respect to Letters of Credit.
(b) Funding of Loans. Agent shall notify the appropriate Lenders of the date, amount,
type of currency and Interest Period (if applicable) promptly upon the receipt of a Notice of Loan
(other than for a Swing Loan, or a Revolving Loan to be funded as a Swing Loan), and, in any event,
by 2:00 P.M. (Eastern time) on the date such Notice of Loan is received. On the date that the
Credit Event set forth in such Notice of Loan is to occur, each such Revolving Lender shall provide
to Agent, not later than 3:00 P.M. (Eastern time), the amount in Dollars, or, with respect to an
Alternate Currency, in the applicable Alternate Currency, in federal or other immediately available
funds, required of it. If Agent shall elect to advance the proceeds of such Loan prior to
receiving funds from such Revolving Lender, Agent shall have the right, upon prior notice to
Administrative Borrower, to debit any account of a Credit Party or otherwise receive such amount
from Borrowers, promptly after demand, in the
50
event that such Revolving Lender shall fail to reimburse Agent in accordance with this subsection.
Agent shall also have the right to receive interest from such Revolving Lender at the Federal Funds
Effective Rate in the event that such Revolving Lender shall fail to provide its portion of the
Loan on the date requested and Agent shall elect to provide such funds.
(c) Conversion and Continuation of Loans.
(i) At the request of Administrative Borrower to Agent, subject to the notice and other
provisions of this Section 2.6, the appropriate Lenders shall convert a Base Rate Loan to
one or more Eurodollar Loans at any time and shall convert a Eurodollar Loan to a Base Rate
Loan on any Interest Adjustment Date applicable thereto. Swing Loans may be converted by
the Swing Line Lender to Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.2(c)(ii) hereof. No
Alternate Currency Loan may be converted to a Base Rate Loan or Eurodollar Loan and no Base
Rate Loan or Eurodollar Loan may be converted to an Alternate Currency Loan.
(ii) At the request of Administrative Borrower to Agent, subject to the notice and
other provisions of this Section 2.6, the appropriate Lenders shall continue one or more
Eurodollar Loans as of the end of the applicable Interest Period as a new Eurodollar Loan
with a new Interest Period.
(d) Minimum Amount for Loans. Each request for:
(i) a LIBOR Fixed Rate Loan shall be in an amount (or, with respect to an Alternate
Currency Loan, such approximately comparable amount as shall result in a rounded number) of
not less than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000), increased by increments of One Million
Dollars ($1,000,000) (or, with respect to an Alternate Currency Loan, such approximately
comparable amount as shall result in a rounded number); and
(ii) a Swing Loan shall be in an amount of not less than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars
($500,000), or such lower amount as may be agreed to by the Swing Line Lender.
(e) Interest Periods. Administrative Borrower shall not request that Eurodollar Loans
be outstanding for more than eight different Interest Periods at the same time.
Section 2.7. Payment on Loans and Other Obligations.
(a) Payments Generally. Each payment made hereunder by a Credit Party shall be made
without any offset, abatement, recoupment, counterclaim, withholding or reduction whatsoever.
(b) Payments in Alternate Currency. With respect to any Alternate Currency Loan or
any Alternate Currency Letter of Credit, all payments (including prepayments) to any Lender of the
principal of or interest on such Alternate Currency Loan or Alternate Currency Letter of
51
Credit shall be made in the same Alternate Currency as the original Loan or Letter of Credit. All
such payments shall be remitted by Borrowers to Agent, at the address of Agent for notices referred
to in Section 12.4 hereof (or at such other office or account as designated in writing by Agent to
Administrative Borrower), for the account of the Revolving Lenders (or the appropriate Fronting
Lender or the Swing Line Lender, as appropriate) not later than 11:00 A.M. (Eastern time) on the
due date thereof in same day funds. Any such payments received by Agent after 11:00 A.M. (Eastern
time) shall be deemed to have been made and received on the next Business Day.
(c) Payments in Dollars from Borrowers. With respect to (i) any Loan (other than an
Alternate Currency Loan), or (ii) any other payment to Agent and the Lenders that shall not be
covered by subsection (b) above, all such payments (including prepayments) to Agent of the
principal of or interest on such Loan or other payment, including but not limited to principal,
interest, fees or any other amount owed by Borrowers under this Agreement, shall be made in
Dollars. All payments described in this subsection (c) shall be remitted to Agent, at the address
of Agent for notices referred to in Section 12.4 hereof for the account of the appropriate Lenders
(or the appropriate Fronting Lender or the Swing Line Lender, as appropriate) not later than 11:00
A.M. (Eastern time) on the due date thereof in immediately available funds. Any such payments
received by Agent (or such Fronting Lender or the Swing Line Lender) after 11:00 A.M. (Eastern
time) shall be deemed to have been made and received on the next Business Day.
(d) Payments to Lenders. Upon Agent’s receipt of payments hereunder, Agent shall
immediately distribute to the appropriate Lenders (except with respect to Swing Loans, which shall
be paid to the Swing Line Lender and any Lender that has funded a participation in the Swing Loans,
or, with respect to Letters of Credit, certain of which payments shall be paid to the Fronting
Lender issuing such Letter of Credit) their respective ratable shares, if any, of the amount of
principal, interest, and facility and other fees received by Agent for the account of such Lender.
Payments received by Agent in Dollars shall be delivered to the Lenders in Dollars in immediately
available funds. Payments received by Agent in any Alternate Currency shall be delivered to the
Lenders in such Alternate Currency in same day funds. Each appropriate Lender shall record any
principal, interest or other payment, the principal amounts of Base Rate Loans, LIBOR Fixed Rate
Loans and Swing Loans and Letters of Credit, the type of currency for each Loan, all prepayments
and the applicable dates, including Interest Periods, with respect to the Loans made, and payments
received by such Lender, by such method as such Lender may generally employ; provided that failure
to make any such entry shall in no way detract from the obligations of Borrowers under this
Agreement or any Note. The aggregate unpaid amount of Loans, types of Loans, Interest Periods and
similar information with respect to the Loans and Letters of Credit set forth on the records of
Agent shall be rebuttably presumptive evidence with respect to such information, including the
amounts of principal, interest and fees owing to each Lender.
(e) Timing of Payments. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder, including, without
limitation, any payment to be made on any Loan, shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a
Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next Business Day and such extension of time shall
in each case be included in the computation of the interest payable on such Loan; provided that,
with respect to a LIBOR Fixed Rate Loan, if the next Business Day shall fall in
52
the succeeding calendar month, such payment shall be made on the preceding Business Day and the
relevant Interest Period shall be adjusted accordingly.
(f) Affected Lender. To the extent that Agent receives any payments or other amounts
for the account of a Revolving Lender that is an Affected Lender, such Affected Lender shall be
deemed to have requested that Agent use such payment or other amount to cash collateralize its
unfunded risk participation in Swing Loans and the Letters of Credit pursuant to Sections
2.2(b)(vi) and 2.2(c)(iii) hereof.
Section 2.8. Prepayment.
(a) Right to Prepay.
(i) Borrowers shall have the right at any time or from time to time to prepay, on a pro
rata basis for all of the appropriate Lenders (except with respect to Swing Loans, which
shall be paid to the Swing Line Lender and any Lender that has funded a participation in
such Swing Loan), all or any part of the principal amount of the Loans, as designated by
Administrative Borrower, representing the obligations under any Specific Commitment with the
proceeds of such prepayment to be distributed on a pro rata basis to the holders of the
Specific Commitment being prepaid. Such payment shall include interest accrued on the
amount so prepaid to the date of such prepayment and any amount payable under Article III
hereof with respect to the amount being prepaid. Prepayments of Base Rate Loans shall be
without any premium or penalty. Each prepayment of a Term Loan shall be applied to the
principal installments thereof in the inverse order of their respective maturities.
(ii) Borrowers shall have the right, at any time or from time to time, to prepay, for
the benefit of the Swing Line Lender (and any Lender that has funded a participation in such
Swing Loan), all or any part of the principal amount of the Swing Loans then outstanding, as
designated by Administrative Borrower, plus interest accrued on the amount so prepaid to the
date of such prepayment.
(iii) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.8 or otherwise to the contrary, at the
discretion of Agent, in order to prepay Revolving Loans that were not advanced pro rata by
all of the Revolving Lenders, any prepayment of a Loan shall first be applied to Revolving
Loans made by the Revolving Lenders during any period in which a Defaulting Lender or
Insolvent Lender shall exist.
(b) Notice of Prepayment. Administrative Borrower shall give Agent irrevocable
written notice of prepayment of a Base Rate Loan or Swing Loan by no later than 11:00 A.M. (Eastern
time) one Business Day before the Business Day on which such prepayment is to be made and written
notice of the prepayment of any Eurodollar Loan not later than 1:00 P.M. (Eastern time) three
Business Days before the Business Day on which such prepayment is to be made; provided that this
notice requirement shall not be applicable, during a Cash Dominion Period, with respect to the
daily application of funds in the Cash Collateral Account to prepay the Loans.
53
(c) Minimum Amount. Each prepayment of a Eurodollar Loan shall be in the principal
amount of not less than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000), or the principal amount of such Loan
(or, with respect to an Alternate Currency Loan, the Dollar Equivalent (rounded to a comparable
amount) of such amount), except in the case of a mandatory payment pursuant to Section 2.11 or
Article III hereof.
Section 2.9. Facility and Other Fees; Reduction of Revolving Credit Commitment.
(a) Facility Fee. Borrowers shall pay to Agent, for the ratable account of the
Revolving Lenders, as a consideration for the Revolving Credit Commitment, a facility fee from the
Closing Date to and including the last day of the Commitment Period, payable quarterly, at a rate
per annum equal to (i) fifty (50.00) basis points, multiplied by (ii) the average daily Maximum
Revolving Amount in effect during such quarter. The facility fee shall be payable in arrears, on
September 30, 2009 and continuing on each Regularly Scheduled Payment Date thereafter, and on the
last day of the Commitment Period.
(b) Agent Fee. Borrowers shall pay to Agent the fees set forth in the Agent Fee
Letter.
(c) Collateral Audit and Appraisal Fees. Borrowers shall reimburse Agent, for its
sole benefit, for all expenses relating to any collateral assessment, that may be conducted from
time to time by or on behalf of Agent, the scope and frequency of which shall be in Agent’s sole
discretion (but is generally expected to be conducted no less frequently than two collateral field
audits per year and one Inventory appraisal per year); provided that, absent an Event of Default,
Borrowers need not reimburse Agent (i) for more than three collateral field audits during a
calendar year, or (ii) one Inventory appraisal during a calendar year. The costs and expenses for
field audits and appraisals performed by Agent during the absence of an Event of Default shall be
as set forth in the Agent Fee Letter.
(d) Authorization to Debit Account. Each Credit Party hereby agrees that Agent has
the right to debit from any Deposit Account of one or more Credit Parties, amounts owing to Agent
by any Borrower under this Agreement and the Loan Documents for payment of fees and expenses
incurred in connection therewith.
(e) Optional Reduction of Revolving Credit Commitment. Borrowers may at any time and
from time to time permanently reduce in whole or ratably in part the Maximum Revolving Amount to an
amount not less than the then existing Revolving Credit Exposure, by giving Agent not fewer than
five Business Days’ (or thirty (30) days if the Total Commitment Amount is to be reduced or
terminated in its entirety) written notice of such reduction, provided that any such partial
reduction shall be in an aggregate amount, for all of the Lenders, of not less than Five Million
Dollars ($5,000,000), increased in increments of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000). Agent shall
promptly notify each Revolving Lender of the date of each such reduction and such Revolving
Lender’s proportionate share thereof. After each such partial reduction, the facility fees payable
hereunder shall be calculated upon the Maximum Revolving Amount as so reduced. If Borrowers reduce
in whole the Revolving Credit Commitment, on the
54
effective date of such reduction (the Borrowers having prepaid in full the unpaid principal
balance, if any, of the Loans, together with all interest (if any) and facility and other fees
accrued and unpaid with respect thereto, and provided that no Letter of Credit Exposure or Swing
Line Exposure shall exist), all of the Revolving Credit Notes shall be delivered to Agent marked
“Canceled” and Agent shall redeliver such Revolving Credit Notes to Administrative Borrower. Any
partial reduction in the Maximum Revolving Amount shall be effective during the remainder of the
Commitment Period.
Section 2.10. Computation of Interest and Fees. With the exception of Base Rate
Loans, interest on Loans, Letter of Credit fees, Related Expenses and facility and other fees and
charges hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year having three hundred sixty (360) days
and calculated for the actual number of days elapsed. With respect to Base Rate Loans, interest
shall be computed on the basis of a year having three hundred sixty-five (365) days or three
hundred sixty-six (366) days, as the case may be, and calculated for the actual number of days
elapsed.
Section 2.11. Mandatory Payments.
(a) Overadvance.
(i) Revolving Credit Exposure. If, at any time, the Revolving Credit Exposure
shall exceed the Revolving Credit Commitment, Borrowers shall, as promptly as practicable,
but in no event later than the next Business Day, pay an aggregate principal amount of the
Revolving Loans sufficient to bring the Revolving Credit Exposure within the Revolving
Credit Commitment.
(ii) Term Loan Exposure. If, at any time, the Revolving Credit Exposure shall
be Zero Dollars ($0) and the Term Loan Exposure shall exceed the Borrowing Base, Borrowers
shall, as promptly as practicable, but in no event later than the next Business Day, pay an
aggregate principal amount of the Term Loan sufficient to bring the Term Loan Exposure
within the Borrowing Base.
(b) Swing Line Exposure. If, at any time, the Swing Line Exposure shall exceed the
Swing Line Commitment, Borrowers shall, as promptly as practicable, but in no event later than the
next Business Day, pay an aggregate principal amount of the Swing Loans sufficient to bring the
Swing Line Exposure within the Swing Line Commitment.
(c) Mandatory Prepayments. Borrowers shall, until the Term Loan is paid in full, make
Mandatory Prepayments (each a “Mandatory Prepayment”) in accordance with the following provisions:
(i) Excess Cash Flow. If the Total Leverage Ratio, calculated for a fiscal
year of Gibraltar (commencing with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2009), is greater
than 3.50 to 1.00 (each such year an “Excess Cash Flow Year”), then Borrowers shall, within
ninety (90) days after the end of such Excess Cash Flow Year, until the Term Loan shall have
been paid in full, make a Mandatory Prepayment in an amount of not less
55
than fifty percent (50%) of the Excess Cash Flow (if any) for such Excess Cash Flow Year.
(ii) Sale of Assets. If, during any fiscal year of Gibraltar, the Companies
have received cumulative Net Cash Proceeds of at least Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000)
during such fiscal year from one or more Asset Dispositions made pursuant to Section 5.12
hereof, not later than three Business Days following the date of receipt of any Cash
Proceeds in excess of such amount, Borrowers shall make a Mandatory Prepayment in an amount
equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the Net Cash Proceeds then received in excess of such
amount from any Asset Disposition.
(iii) Additional Indebtedness. Not later than the Business Day following the
date of the receipt by any Credit Party of the cash proceeds (net of underwriting discounts
and commissions, placement agent fees and other customary fees and costs associated
therewith) from any sale or issuance of any Indebtedness (other than Subordinated
Indebtedness incurred pursuant to an Acquisition and as permitted by Section 5.8(i) hereof)
incurred pursuant to Section 5.8(g), (h) or (i) hereof, Borrowers shall make a Mandatory
Prepayment of the Term Loan in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of such net
cash proceeds.
(iv) Recovery Event. If, during any fiscal year of Gibraltar, any Credit Party
shall have received cumulative Cash Proceeds during such fiscal year from one or more
Recovery Events equal to more than five percent (5%) of Consolidated Net Worth, not later
than the third Business Day following the date of receipt of any Cash Proceeds in excess of
such amount, Borrowers will make a Mandatory Prepayment of the Term Loan with an amount
equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the Net Cash Proceeds then received in excess of such
amount from any Recovery Event; provided that if (A) no Default or Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, and (B) Administrative Borrower notifies Agent and the Lenders
in writing that it intends to rebuild or restore the affected property and that such
rebuilding or restoration can be accomplished within two hundred seventy (270) days out of
such Cash Proceeds and other funds available to Borrowers, then no such Mandatory Prepayment
of the Term Loan shall be required if Borrowers actually use such Cash Proceeds for
application to the costs of rebuilding or restoration of the affected property within such
two hundred seventy (270) day period. Any amounts not so applied to the costs of rebuilding
or restoration within such two hundred seventy (270) day period shall be applied to the
Mandatory Prepayment of the Term Loan as provided above.
(d) Application of Mandatory Prepayments. Each Mandatory Prepayment required to be
made pursuant to Section 2.11(c) hereof shall be applied to the Term Loan (to the payments of
principal in the inverse order of maturities), with such payment first to be applied to any portion
of the Term Loan that shall constitute the outstanding Base Rate Loan and then to any portion of
the Term Loan that shall constitute outstanding Eurodollar Loans; provided that, if the outstanding
principal amount of any Eurodollar Loan shall be reduced to an amount less than the minimum amount
set forth in Section 2.6(d) hereof as a result of such prepayment, then such Eurodollar Loan shall
be converted into a Base Rate Loan on the date of such prepayment. Any
56
prepayment of a Eurodollar Loan pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall be subject to the prepayment
provisions set forth in Article III hereof.
Section 2.12. Liability of Borrowers.
(a) Joint and Several Liability. Each Borrower hereby authorizes Administrative
Borrower or any other Borrower to request Loans or Letters of Credit hereunder. Each Borrower
acknowledges and agrees that Agent and the Lenders are entering into this Agreement at the request
of each Borrower and with the understanding that each Borrower is and shall remain fully liable,
jointly and severally, for payment in full of the Obligations and any other amount payable under
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Borrower agrees that it is receiving or will
receive a direct pecuniary benefit for each Loan made or Letter of Credit issued hereunder.
(b) Appointment of Administrative Borrower. Each Credit Party hereby irrevocably
appoints Administrative Borrower as the borrowing agent and attorney-in-fact for all Credit
Parties, which appointment shall remain in full force and effect unless and until Agent shall have
received prior written notice signed by each Credit Party that such appointment has been revoked
and that another Borrower has been appointed Administrative Borrower. Each Credit Party hereby
irrevocably appoints and authorizes Administrative Borrower to (i) provide Agent with all notices
with respect to Loans and Letters of Credit obtained for the benefit of any Borrower and all other
notices and instructions under this Agreement, (ii) take such action as Administrative Borrower
deems appropriate on its behalf to obtain Loans and Letters of Credit, and (iii) exercise such
other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto to carry out the purposes of this Agreement. It
is understood that the handling of the Collateral of the Credit Parties in a combined fashion, as
more fully set forth herein, is done solely as an accommodation to Borrowers in order to utilize
the collective borrowing powers of the Credit Parties in the most efficient and economical manner
and at their request, and that neither Agent nor any Lender shall incur liability to any Credit
Party as a result hereof. Each Credit Party expects to derive benefit, directly or indirectly,
from the handling of the Collateral in a combined fashion since the successful operation of each
Credit Party is dependent on the continued successful performance of the integrated group.
(c) Maximum Liability of GSNY. Anything in this Agreement or any other Loan Document
to the contrary notwithstanding, in no event shall the maximum liability of GSNY exceed the maximum
amount that (after giving effect to the incurring of the obligations hereunder and to any rights to
contribution of GSNY from other Affiliates of GSNY) would not render the rights to payment of Agent
and the Lenders hereunder void, voidable or avoidable under any applicable fraudulent transfer law.
(d) Waivers of Each Borrower. In the event that any obligation of any Borrower under
this Agreement is deemed to be an agreement by such Borrower to answer for the debt or default of
another Credit Party or as an hypothecation of property as security therefor, each Borrower
represents and warrants that (i) no representation has been made to such Borrower as to the
creditworthiness of such other Credit Party, and (ii) such Borrower has established adequate means
of obtaining from such other Credit Party on a continuing basis, financial or
57
other information pertaining to such other Credit Party’s financial condition. Each Borrower
expressly waives, except as expressly required under this Agreement, diligence, demand,
presentment, protest and notice of every kind and nature whatsoever, consents to the taking by
Agent and the Lenders of any additional security of another Credit Party for the obligations
secured hereby, or the alteration or release in any manner of any security of another Credit Party
now or hereafter held in connection with the Obligations, and consents that Agent, the Lenders and
any other Credit Party may deal with each other in connection with such obligations or otherwise,
or alter any contracts now or hereafter existing between them, in any manner whatsoever, including
without limitation the renewal, extension, acceleration or changes in time for payment of any such
obligations or in the terms or conditions of any security held. Agent and the Lenders are hereby
expressly given the right, at their option, to proceed in the enforcement of any of the Obligations
independently of any other remedy or security they may at any time hold in connection with such
obligations secured and it shall not be necessary for Agent and the Lenders to proceed upon or
against or exhaust any other security or remedy before proceeding to enforce their rights against
such Borrower. Each Borrower further waives any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration,
contribution, indemnification, setoff or other recourse in respect of sums paid to Agent and the
Lenders by any other Credit Party until payment in full of the Secured Obligations.
Section 2.13. Establishment of Reserves.
(a) Generally. Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, shall have the right, from time to
time, in the good faith exercise of its reasonable credit judgment (consistent with the asset-based
nature of this credit), to establish Reserves in such amounts and with respect to such matters as
Agent deems necessary or appropriate, and to increase or decrease such Reserves. In exercising
such reasonable credit judgment, Agent may take into account factors which (i) will or could
reasonably be expected to adversely affect the value of any Collateral, the enforceability or
priority of the Liens of Agent or the amount that Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, would be
likely to receive in the liquidation of such Collateral, or (ii) may demonstrate that any
collateral report or financial information concerning the Credit Parties is incomplete, inaccurate
or misleading in any material respect. In exercising such reasonable credit judgment, Reserves may
be established against anticipated obligations, contingencies or conditions affecting the
Companies, including (a) tax liabilities and other obligations owing to Governmental Authorities,
(b) asserted litigation liabilities, (c) anticipated remediation for compliance with Environmental
Laws, and (d) obligations owing to any lessor of real property, any warehouseman, any processor or
any mortgagor on third-party mortgaged sites. Reserves may also be established with respect to the
dilution of accounts receivable, as a result of inventory appraisals and other results of field
examinations.
(b) Reserve Requirements with Respect to Designated Hedge Agreements. With respect to
a Designated Hedge Agreement, the Designated Hedge Creditor for such Designated Hedge Agreement
shall provide to Agent, (i) on a monthly basis (within five days after the end of each calendar
month) and as often as Agent shall request, a calculation of the net termination value of such
Designated Hedge Agreement, and (ii) all Designated Hedge Documents related thereto promptly upon
request by Agent. Agent shall use such calculation to establish Reserves against the Borrowing
Base, in its reasonable discretion; provided that Agent shall have no
58
liability to the Lenders (or any of their affiliates) for establishing or failing to establish a
sufficient Reserve. Schedule 2.13 hereto sets forth the Designated Hedge Agreements
existing as of the Closing Date. The Credit Parties hereby consent to the Designated Hedge
Creditors providing any and all such information to Agent.
Section 2.14. Addition of Collateral for Fixed Asset Advance. With respect to any
Equipment or Real Property that shall not be an Eligible Fixed Asset on the Closing Date, Borrowers
shall have the ability to have such Equipment or Real Property be considered as an Eligible Fixed
Asset during the period from the Closing Date through October 23, 2009 on the following conditions:
(a) an appraisal report of such Equipment or Real Property is obtained prior to October
23, 2009, provided that such appraisal shall have been completed on behalf of, and accepted
by, Agent, in its sole discretion;
(b) if Real Property, all of the conditions set forth in Section 4.2(g) hereof shall
have been met with respect to such Real Property prior to October 23, 2009; and
(c) Borrowers shall have delivered to Agent such other supporting documentation and
Security Documents as may be deemed necessary or advisable by Agent;
provided that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if any Credit Party
shall sell or otherwise dispose of Eligible Fixed Assets that were part of the calculation of the
Eligible Fixed Asset Amount (for its most recent period of determination), then Agent may, in its
sole discretion, permit Borrowers to replace such Eligible Fixed Assets with Eligible Real Property
not previously part of the Eligible Fixed Asset Amount, but only so long as (i) the addition of
such Eligible Real Property does not result in an increase of the Eligible Fixed Asset Amount as in
effect prior to such sale or disposition, and (ii) such Credit Party shall have delivered to Agent
all documentation required by Agent with respect to such Eligible Real Property, in form and
substance satisfactory to Agent.
Section 2.15.
Addition of Borrowing Base Company. Upon the Acquisition by a
Credit Party of a Person that becomes a Domestic Subsidiary following such Acquisition, at the
request of Administrative Borrower and at the sole discretion of Agent, such Domestic Subsidiary
may become a Borrowing Base Company hereunder, provided that, in addition to Agent’s consent,
(a) such Domestic Subsidiary shall have complied with all requirements of Section 5.21 hereof, (b)
such Domestic Subsidiary’s assets shall have been appraised and otherwise evaluated for Borrowing
Base eligibility purposes in a manner and by appraisers satisfactory to Agent, and (c) such
Domestic Subsidiary shall have provided to Agent such corporate governance and authorization
documents and an opinion of counsel and any other documents and items as may be deemed necessary or
advisable by Agent, all of the foregoing to be in form and substance satisfactory to Agent.
59
Section 2.16. Record of Advances; Application of Collections.
(a) Maintenance of Record of Advances. Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, shall
maintain records in respect of the Credit Parties that shall reflect (i) the aggregate outstanding
principal amount of Revolving Loans and accrued interest, (ii) the unreimbursed Letter of Credit
drawings, (iii) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Swing Loans and accrued interest, and
(iv) all other Obligations that shall have become payable hereunder (the “Advance Record”). Each
entry by Agent in the Advance Record shall be, to the extent permitted by applicable law and absent
manifest error, prima facie evidence of the data entered. Such entries by Agent shall not be a
condition to Borrowers’ obligation to repay the Obligations.
(b) Charges, Credits and Reports. Borrowers hereby authorize Agent, on behalf of the
Lenders, to charge the Advance Record with all Revolving Loans, Swing Loans and all other
Obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document. The Advance Record will be credited
in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement with all payments received by Agent directly
from Borrowers or any other Credit Party or otherwise for the account of Borrowers or any other
Credit Party pursuant to this Agreement. Agent shall send Administrative Borrower monthly
statements in accordance with Agent’s standard procedures. Any and all such periodic or other
statements or reconciliations of the Advance Record shall be final, binding and conclusive upon
Borrowers and the other Credit Party in all respects, absent manifest error, unless Agent receives
specific written objection thereto from Administrative Borrower within thirty (30) Business Days
after such statements or reconciliation shall have been sent to Administrative Borrower.
(c) Application of Specific Payments. Except for the crediting to the Advance Record
of Collections deposited to the Cash Collateral Account as provided below, Borrowers shall make all
other payments to be made by Borrowers under this Agreement with respect to the Obligations not
later than 2:00 P.M. (Eastern time) on the day when due, without setoff, counterclaim, defense or
deduction of any kind. Payments received after 2:00 P.M. (Eastern time) shall be deemed to have
been received on the next Business Day. Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default,
Administrative Borrower may specify to Agent the Obligations to which such payment is to be
applied. If Administrative Borrower does not specify an application for such payment or if an
Event of Default has occurred, Agent shall apply such payment in its discretion.
(d) Crediting of Collections. For the purpose of calculating interest on the
Obligations and determining the aggregate amount of Loans outstanding, the amount of the Revolving
Credit Exposure and the availability for additional Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit, all
Collections deposited into the Cash Collateral Account shall be credited to the account of
Borrowers (as reflected in the Advance Record) on the next Business Day after the Business Day on
which Agent has received notice of the deposit of the proceeds of such Collections into the Cash
Collateral Account (including automated clearinghouse and federal wire transfers); provided that
immediately available funds shall be applied on the same Business Day. Subject to the rights of
the Term Lenders to receive payments when due and of the Revolving Lenders rights to receive
payments of Alternate Currency Loans in the relevant Alternate Currency, and subject to Section 9.9
hereof, Collections deposited into the Cash Collateral Account shall be
60
credited as follows: (i) first, to any costs and expenses due and payable under this Agreement,
(ii) second, to any fees due and payable under this Agreement, (iii) third, to Swing Loans, (iv)
fourth, to Base Rate Loans, (v) fifth, to Eurodollar Loans, (vi) sixth, to Alternate Currency Loans
(or, at the discretion of Agent, to cash collateralize Alternate Currency Loans until the
applicable Interest Adjustment Date), (vii) seventh, to the extent that the Letter of Credit
Exposure exceeds the Borrowing Base, to cash collateralize the Letters of Credit as set forth in
Section 2.2(b)(ix) hereof, and (viii) eighth, any remainder thereof to be deposited into the
Operating Account. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.16 to the contrary, any amount held
by Agent to cash collateralize Alternate Currency Loans pursuant to subpart (vi) above shall be
held in the Cash Collateral Account until repayment of such Alternate Currency Loans at the
applicable Interest Adjustment Dates. From time to time, upon advance written notice to
Administrative Borrower, Agent may adopt such additional or modified regulations and procedures as
Agent may deem reasonable and appropriate with respect to the operation of the Cash Collateral
Account and not substantially inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement.
(e) Application of Deposits in Cash Collateral Account. Deposits of Collections to
the Cash Collateral Account shall be credited to the Advance Record of Borrowers on a daily basis
in accordance with subsection (d) above, and thereby reduce the Swing Line Exposure or the
Revolving Credit Exposure (other than in respect of the undrawn amount of any Letter of Credit
outstanding) as Agent may choose, in its sole discretion; provided that, prior to the occurrence of
an Event of Default, Agent will use reasonable efforts to avoid applications of payments that would
cause prepayment of a Eurodollar Loan or Alternate Currency Loan prior to the expiration of the
applicable Interest Period. Upon payment in full of the Secured Obligations and the termination of
the Commitment, deposits of Collections to the Cash Collateral Account shall be credited by Agent
as directed by Administrative Borrower.
Section 2.17. Protective Expenses. Agent may, in its reasonable discretion, incur
Protective Expenses without the consent of the Lenders, so long as (a) after giving effect to such
Protective Expenses, the aggregate amount of outstanding Protective Expenses shall not exceed five
percent (5%) of the Total Commitment Amount, and (b) the incurrence of such Protective Expenses
shall not cause the sum of (i) the Revolving Credit Exposure, (ii) the Term Loan Exposure, and
(iii) the aggregate amount of outstanding Protective Expenses, to be in excess of the Total
Commitment Amount. Agent shall provide notice to Administrative Borrower upon the incurrence of
any such Protective Expenses other than during the existence of an Event of Default. Any
Protective Expenses incurred after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default
shall be deemed to have been made in connection with the exercise of remedies by Agent and shall
have the priority set forth in Section 9.9 hereof as expenses of Agent incurred in connection with
the exercise of remedies under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. To the extent Agent
incurs Protective Expenses, Borrowers hereby agree to promptly reimburse Agent, on demand, for all
such Protective Expenses. The advances of any such Protective Expenses on any one occasion shall
not obligate Agent to advance any Protective Expenses on any other occasion and nothing in this
Section 2.17 shall be construed as excusing any Company from the performance of any covenant or
other agreement of such Company with respect to any of the foregoing matters as set forth in this
Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents. The Revolving Lenders shall reimburse Agent for
any Protective Expenses to the extent that Agent does not receive reimbursement pursuant to any
other provision of this Agreement, and, at
61
the sole option of Agent, Agent may reimburse itself for Protective Expenses through the making of
a Swing Loan or by requesting that the Revolving Lenders fund a Revolving Loan, subject to no
conditions precedent whatsoever (but, for clarification, subject to the first sentence hereof)
other than notice to the Revolving Lenders in accordance with Section 2.6(a) hereof.
ARTICLE III. ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS RELATING TO
LIBOR FIXED RATE LOANS; INCREASED CAPITAL; TAXES
Section 3.1. Requirements of Law.
(a) If, after the Closing Date, (i) the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or
in the interpretation or application thereof by a Governmental Authority, or (ii) the compliance by
any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central
bank or other Governmental Authority:
(A) shall subject any Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this
Agreement, any Letter of Credit or any LIBOR Fixed Rate Loan made by it, or change the basis
of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof (except for Taxes and Excluded
Taxes which are governed by Section 3.2 hereof);
(B) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory
loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for
the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition
of funds by, any office of such Lender that is not otherwise included in the determination
of the Eurodollar Rate or the Alternate Currency Rate; or
(C) shall impose on such Lender any other condition;
and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of making, converting
into, continuing or maintaining LIBOR Fixed Rate Loans or issuing or participating in Letters of
Credit, or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case,
Borrowers shall pay to such Lender, promptly after receipt of a written request therefor, any
additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount
receivable. If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this
subsection (a), such Lender shall promptly notify Administrative Borrower (with a copy to Agent) of
the event by reason of which it has become so entitled.
(b) If any Lender shall have determined that, after the Closing Date, the adoption of or any
change in any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or in the interpretation or application
thereof by a Governmental Authority or compliance by such Lender or any corporation controlling
such Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the
force of law) from any Governmental Authority shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return
on such Lender’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder, or
under or in respect of any Letter of Credit, to a level below that which such Lender or such
corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change or
62
compliance (taking into consideration the policies of such Lender or such corporation with respect
to capital adequacy), then from time to time, upon submission by such Lender to Administrative
Borrower (with a copy to Agent) of a written request therefor (which shall include the method for
calculating such amount), Borrowers shall promptly pay or cause to be paid to such Lender such
additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such corporation for such reduction.
(c) A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 3.1 submitted
by any Lender to Administrative Borrower (with a copy to Agent) shall be conclusive absent manifest
error. In determining any such additional amounts, such Lender may use any method of averaging and
attribution that it (in its sole discretion) shall deem applicable. The obligations of Borrowers
pursuant to this Section 3.1 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the
Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.
Section 3.2. Taxes.
(a) All payments made by any Credit Party under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear
of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of any Taxes or Other Taxes. If any
Taxes or Other Taxes are required to be deducted or withheld from any amounts payable to Agent or
any Lender hereunder, the amounts so payable to Agent or such Lender shall be increased to the
extent necessary to yield to Agent or such Lender (after deducting, withholding and payment of all
Taxes and Other Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the
amounts specified in the Loan Documents.
(b) Whenever any Taxes or Other Taxes are required to be withheld and paid by a Credit Party,
such Credit Party shall timely withhold and pay such taxes to the relevant Governmental
Authorities. As promptly as possible thereafter, Administrative Borrower shall send to Agent for
its own account or for the account of the relevant Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy of
an original official receipt received by such Credit Party showing payment thereof or other
evidence of payment reasonably acceptable to Agent or such Lender. If such Credit Party shall fail
to pay any Taxes or Other Taxes when due to the appropriate Governmental Authority or fails to
remit to Agent the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, such Credit Party and
Borrowers shall indemnify Agent and the appropriate Lenders on demand for any incremental Taxes or
Other Taxes paid or payable by Agent or such Lender as a result of any such failure.
(c) Each Lender that is not (i) a citizen or resident of the United States of America, (ii) a
corporation, partnership or other entity created or organized in or under the laws of the United
States of America (or any jurisdiction thereof), or (iii) an estate or trust that is subject to
federal income taxation regardless of the source of its income (any such Person, a “Non-U.S.
Lender”) shall deliver to Administrative Borrower and Agent two copies of either U.S. Internal
Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, Form W-8IMY or Form W-8ECI, or, in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender
claiming exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code
with respect to payments of “portfolio interest”, a statement with respect to such interest and two
copies of a Form W-8BEN, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, properly
completed and duly executed by such Non-U.S. Lender claiming complete
63
exemption from, or a reduced rate of, U.S. federal withholding tax on all payments by Credit
Parties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Such forms shall be delivered by each
Non-U.S. Lender on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement or such other Loan
Document. In addition, each Non-U.S. Lender shall deliver such forms or appropriate replacements
promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Non-U.S.
Lender. Each Non-U.S. Lender shall promptly notify Administrative Borrower at any time it
determines that such Lender is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered
certificate to Administrative Borrower (or any other form of certification adopted by the U.S.
taxing authorities for such purpose). Notwithstanding any other provision of this subsection (c),
a Non-U.S. Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this subsection (c) that
such Non-U.S. Lender is not legally able to deliver.
(d) The agreements in this Section 3.2 shall survive the termination of the Loan Documents and
the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.
Section 3.3. Funding Losses. Borrowers agree to indemnify each Lender, promptly
after receipt of a written request therefor, and to hold each Lender harmless from, any loss or
expense that such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by a Borrower in
making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of LIBOR Fixed Rate Loans after such
Borrower has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement, (b) default by a Borrower in making any prepayment of or conversion from LIBOR Fixed
Rate Loans after such Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement, (c) the making of a prepayment of a LIBOR Fixed Rate Loan on a day that is not the last
day of an Interest Period applicable thereto, or (d) any conversion of a Eurodollar Loan to a Base
Rate Loan on a day that is not the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto. Such
indemnification shall be in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest
that would have accrued on the amounts so prepaid, or not so borrowed, converted or continued, for
the period from the date of such prepayment or of such failure to borrow, convert or continue to
the last day of such Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue,
the Interest Period that would have commenced on the date of such failure) in each case at the
applicable rate of interest for such Loans provided for herein over (ii) the amount of interest (as
reasonably determined by such Lender) that would have accrued to such Lender on such amount by
placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the appropriate London
interbank market, along with any administration fee charged by such Lender. A certificate as to
any amounts payable pursuant to this Section 3.3 submitted to Administrative Borrower (with a copy
to Agent) by any Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The obligations of Borrowers
pursuant to this Section 3.3 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the
Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.
Section 3.4. Change of Lending Office. Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence
of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 3.1 or 3.2(a) hereof with respect to such
Lender, it will, if requested by Administrative Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to
overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another lending office (or an affiliate
of such Lender, if practical for such Lender) for any Loans affected by such event with the object
of avoiding the consequences of such event; provided, that such designation is made on terms that,
in the sole judgment of such Lender, cause such Lender and its lending office(s) to suffer no
economic,
64
legal or regulatory disadvantage; and provided, further, that nothing in this Section shall affect
or postpone any of the obligations of any Borrower or the rights of any Lender pursuant to Section
3.1 or 3.2(a) hereof.
Section 3.5. Eurodollar Rate or Alternate Currency Rate Lending Unlawful; Inability to
Determine Rate.
(a) If any Lender shall determine (which determination shall, upon notice thereof to
Administrative Borrower and Agent, be conclusive and binding on Borrowers) that, after the Closing
Date, (i) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law makes it
unlawful, or (ii) any Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for such Lender to make
or continue any Loan as, or to convert (if permitted pursuant to this Agreement) any Loan into, a
LIBOR Fixed Rate Loan, the obligations of such Lender to make, continue or convert any such LIBOR
Fixed Rate Loan shall, upon such determination, be suspended until such Lender shall notify Agent
that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, and all outstanding LIBOR Fixed
Rate Loans payable to such Lender shall automatically convert (if conversion is permitted under
this Agreement) into a Base Rate Loan, or be repaid (if no conversion is permitted) at the end of
the then current Interest Periods with respect thereto or sooner, if required by law or such
assertion.
(b) If Agent or the Required Lenders determine that for any reason adequate and reasonable
means do not exist for determining the Eurodollar Rate or Alternate Currency Rate for any requested
Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBOR Fixed Rate Loan, or that the Eurodollar Rate or
Alternate Currency Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBOR Fixed
Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of funding such Loan,
Agent will promptly so notify Administrative Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, the obligation
of the Lenders to make or maintain such LIBOR Fixed Rate Loan shall be suspended until Agent (upon
the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice,
Administrative Borrower may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, conversion to or
continuation of such LIBOR Fixed Rate Loan or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such
request into a request for a borrowing of a Base Rate Loan in the amount specified therein.
Section 3.6. Replacement of Lenders. Administrative Borrower shall be permitted to
replace any Lender that requests reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to Section 3.1 or 3.2(a)
hereof, or asserts its inability to make a LIBOR Fixed Rate Loan pursuant to Section 3.5 hereof;
provided that (a) such replacement does not conflict with any Requirement of Law, (b) no Default or
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, (c) prior
to any such replacement, such Lender shall have taken no action under Section 3.4 hereof so as to
eliminate the continued need for payment of amounts owing pursuant to Section 3.1 or 3.2(a) hereof
or, if it has taken any action, such request has still been made, (d) the replacement financial
institution shall purchase, at par, all Loans and other amounts owing to such replaced Lender on or
prior to the date of replacement and assume all commitments and obligations of such replaced
Lender, (e) Borrowers shall be liable to such replaced Lender under Section 3.3 hereof if any
Alternate Currency or Eurodollar Loan owing to such replaced Lender shall be purchased other than
on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto, (f) the
65
replacement Lender, if not already a Lender, shall be satisfactory to Agent, (g) the replaced
Lender shall be obligated to make such replacement in accordance with the provisions of Section
12.10 hereof (provided that Borrowers (or the succeeding Lender, if such Lender is willing) shall
be obligated to pay the assignment fee referred to therein), and (h) until such time as such
replacement shall be consummated, Borrowers shall pay all additional amounts (if any) required
pursuant to Section 3.1 or 3.2(a) hereof, as the case may be.
Section 3.7. Discretion of Lenders as to Manner of Funding. Notwithstanding any
provision of this Agreement to the contrary, each Lender shall be entitled to fund and maintain its
funding of all or any part of such Lender’s Loans in any manner such Lender deems to be
appropriate; it being understood, however, that for the purposes of this Agreement all
determinations hereunder shall be made as if such Lender had actually funded and maintained each
Eurodollar Loan or Alternate Currency Loan during the applicable Interest Period for such Loan
through the purchase of deposits having a maturity corresponding to such Interest Period and
bearing an interest rate equal to the Eurodollar Rate or Alternate Currency Rate, as applicable,
for such Interest Period.

for, with respect to Credit Parties, payment of all losses thereunder to Agent, for the benefit of

in favor of Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders), and, if required by Agent after the occurrence
of an Event of Default, Borrowers shall deposit the policies with Agent. Any such policies of

negative business or financial covenant, including, without limitation, any “put” or mandatory
prepayment of such Indebtedness upon the occurrence of a “change of control”) that are applicable

request by written notice to Administrative Borrower (after a determination has been made by the

the provisions set forth herein), Borrowers, Agent and the Required Lenders shall promptly amend
this Agreement to incorporate some or all of such provisions, in the discretion of Agent and the

an outstanding principal balance (or Capitalized Lease Obligation, in the case of a Capital Lease,
or present value, based on the implicit interest rate, in the case of a Synthetic Lease) greater
than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) (other than the Obligations and intercompany loans and
advances among the Companies); provided that a Company may refinance or refund any such
Indebtedness if the aggregate principal amount thereof (or Capitalized Lease Obligation, in the
case of a Capital Lease, or present value, based on the implicit interest rate, in the case of a
Synthetic Lease) is not increased.

Schedule 6.4 hereto, there are (a) no lawsuits, actions, investigations, examinations or
other proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of the Companies, threatened against any Company, or
in respect of which any Company may have any liability, in any court or before or by any
Governmental Authority, arbitration board, or other tribunal that could reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect, (b) no orders, writs, injunctions, judgments, or decrees of any
court or Governmental Authority to which any Company is a party or by which the property or assets
of any Company are bound that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and
(c) no grievances, disputes, or controversies outstanding with any union or other organization of
the employees of any Company, or threats of work stoppage, strike, or pending demands for
collective bargaining that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
Section 6.5. Title to Assets. Each Company has good title to and ownership of all
material property it purports to own, which property is free and clear of all Liens, except those
permitted under Section 5.9 hereof. As of the Closing Date, the Companies own the real property
listed on Schedule 6.5 hereto.
Section 6.6. Liens and Security Interests. On and after the Closing Date, except for
Liens permitted pursuant to Section 5.9 hereof, (a) there is and will be no U.C.C. Financing
Statement or similar notice of Lien outstanding covering any personal property of any Company; (b)
there is and will be no mortgage outstanding covering any real property of any Company; and (c) no
real or personal property of any Company is subject to any Lien of any kind. Agent, for the
benefit of the Lenders, upon the filing of the U.C.C. Financing Statements and taking such other
actions necessary to perfect its Lien against Collateral of the corresponding type as authorized
hereunder will have a valid and enforceable first Lien on the Collateral to the extent such Lien
may be perfected by the filing of a U.C.C. Financing Statement. No Company has entered into any
contract or agreement (other than (i) a contract or agreement entered into in connection with the
purchase or lease of fixed assets that prohibits Liens on such fixed assets, or (ii) any agreement
with a restriction that is not enforceable under Section 9-406, 9-407 or 9-408 of the U.C.C.) that
exists on or after the Closing Date that would prohibit Agent or the Lenders from acquiring a Lien
on, or a collateral assignment of, any of the property or assets of any Company.
Section 6.7. Tax Returns. All federal, state and local tax returns and other reports
required by law to be filed in respect of the income, business, properties and employees of each
Company have been filed (or extended or challenged
as permitted by applicable law); and all taxes, assessments, fees and other governmental charges
that are due and payable have been paid, except as will not cause a Material Adverse Effect. The
provision for taxes on the books of each Company is adequate for all years not closed by applicable
statutes and for the current fiscal year.
Section 6.8. Environmental Laws. Each Company is in material compliance with all
Environmental Laws, including, without limitation, all Environmental Laws in all jurisdictions in
which any Company owns or operates, or has owned or operated, a facility or site, arranges or has
arranged for disposal or treatment of hazardous substances, solid waste or other wastes,
95
accepts or
has accepted for transport any hazardous substances, solid waste or other wastes or holds or has
held any interest in real property or otherwise. No litigation or proceeding arising under,
relating to or in connection with any Environmental Law is pending or, to the best knowledge of
each Company, threatened, against any Company, any real property in which any Company holds or has
held an interest or any past or present operation of any Company. No material release, threatened
(to its knowledge) release or disposal of hazardous waste, solid waste or other wastes is
occurring, or has occurred (other than those that are currently being remediated in accordance with
Environmental Laws), on, under or to any real property in which any Company holds any interest or
performs any of its operations, in violation of any Environmental Law. As used in this Section 6.8,
“litigation or proceeding” means any demand, claim, notice, suit, suit in equity, action,
administrative action, investigation or inquiry whether brought by any Governmental Authority or
private Person, or otherwise.
Section 6.9. Locations. As of the Closing Date, the Credit Parties have places of
business or maintain their Accounts, Inventory and Equipment at the locations (including third
party locations) set forth on Schedule 6.9 hereto, and each Credit Party’s chief executive
office is set forth on Schedule 6.9 hereto. Schedule 6.9 hereto further specifies
whether each location, as of the Closing Date, (a) is owned by the Credit Parties, or (b) is leased
by a Credit Party from a third party, and, if leased by a Credit Party from a third party, if a
Landlord’s Waiver has been requested. As of the Closing Date, Schedule 6.9 hereto
correctly identifies the name and address of each third party location where assets of the Credit
Parties are located.
Section 6.10. Continued Business. There exists no actual, pending, or, to each
Borrower’s knowledge, any threatened termination, cancellation or limitation of, or any
modification or change in the business relationship of any Company and any customer or supplier, or
any group of customers or suppliers, whose purchases or supplies, individually or in the aggregate,
are material to the business of any Company, and there exists no present condition or state of
facts or circumstances that would have a Material Adverse Effect or prevent a Company from
conducting such business or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in substantially the
same manner in which it was previously conducted.
Section 6.11. Employee Benefits Plans.
(a) US Employee Benefit Plans. Schedule 6.11 hereto identifies each material
ERISA Plan as of the Closing Date. No ERISA Event has occurred or is expected to occur with
respect to an ERISA Plan. Full payment has been made of all amounts that a Controlled Group member
is required, under applicable law or under the governing documents, to have paid as a contribution
to or a benefit under each ERISA Plan. The liability of each Controlled Group member with respect
to each ERISA Plan has been fully funded based upon reasonable and proper actuarial assumptions,
has been fully insured, or has been fully reserved for on its financial statements. No changes
have occurred or are expected to occur that would cause a material increase in the cost of
providing benefits under the ERISA Plan. With respect to each ERISA Plan that is intended to be
qualified under Code Section 401(a), (i) the ERISA Plan and any associated trust operationally
comply, in all material respects, with the applicable requirements of Code Section 401(a); (ii) the
ERISA Plan and any associated trust have been amended to comply with all such requirements as
currently in effect, other than those
96
requirements for which a retroactive amendment can be made
within the “remedial amendment period” available under Code Section 401(b) (as extended under
Treasury Regulations and other Treasury pronouncements upon which taxpayers may rely); (iii) the
ERISA Plan and any associated trust have received a favorable determination letter from the
Internal Revenue Service stating that the ERISA Plan qualifies under Code Section 401(a), that the
associated trust qualifies under Code Section 501(a) and, if applicable, that any cash or deferred
arrangement under the ERISA Plan qualifies under Code Section 401(k), unless the ERISA Plan was
first adopted at a time for which the above-described “remedial amendment period” has not yet
expired; (iv) the ERISA Plan currently satisfies the requirements of Code Section 410(b), without
regard to any retroactive amendment that may be made within the above-described “remedial amendment
period”; and (v) no contribution made to the ERISA Plan is subject to an excise tax under Code
Section 4972. With respect to any Pension Plan, the “accumulated benefit obligation” of Controlled
Group members with respect to the Pension Plan (as determined in accordance with Statement of
Accounting Standards No. 87, “Employers’ Accounting for Pensions”) does not exceed the fair market
value of Pension Plan assets.
(b) Foreign Pension Plan and Benefit Plans. As of the Closing Date, Schedule
6.11 hereto lists all Foreign Benefit Plans and Foreign Pension Plans currently maintained or
contributed to by Gibraltar and any appropriate Foreign Subsidiaries. The Foreign Pension Plans
are duly registered under all applicable laws which require registration. Gibraltar and any
appropriate Foreign Subsidiaries have complied with and performed all of its obligations under and
in respect of the Foreign Pension Plans and Foreign Benefit Plans under the terms thereof, any
funding agreements and all applicable laws (including any fiduciary, funding, investment and
administration obligations) except to the extent as would not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect. All employer and employee payments, contributions or premiums to be
remitted, paid to or in respect of each Foreign Pension Plan or Foreign Benefit Plan have been paid
in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms thereof, any funding agreement and all applicable
laws except to the extent the failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect. There are no outstanding actions or suits concerning the assets of the Foreign
Pension Plans or the Foreign Benefit Plans. Each of the Foreign Pension Plans is fully funded on
an ongoing basis as required by all laws applicable to such Foreign Pension Plans (using actuarial
methods and assumptions as of the date of the valuations last filed with the
applicable Governmental Authorities and that are consistent with generally accepted actuarial
principles).
Section 6.12. Consents or Approvals. No consent, approval or authorization of, or
filing, registration or qualification with, any Governmental Authority or any other Person is
required to be obtained or completed by any Company in connection with the execution, delivery or
performance of any of the Loan Documents, that has not already been obtained or completed, except
the filing and recording of financing statements and other documents necessary in order to perfect
the Liens created by this Agreement or the Security Documents.
Section 6.13. Solvency. Each Borrower has received consideration that is the
reasonably equivalent value of the obligations and liabilities that such Borrower has incurred to
Agent and the Lenders. No Borrower is insolvent as defined in any applicable state, federal or
relevant foreign statute, nor will any Borrower be rendered insolvent by the execution and delivery
of the
97
Loan Documents to Agent and the Lenders. No Borrower is engaged or about to engage in any
business or transaction for which the assets retained by it are or will be an unreasonably small
amount of capital, taking into consideration the obligations to Agent and the Lenders incurred
hereunder. No Borrower intends to, nor does it believe that it will, incur debts beyond its
ability to pay such debts as they mature.
Section 6.14. Financial Statements. The Consolidated financial statements of
Gibraltar, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 and the unaudited Consolidated financial
statements of Gibraltar for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2009, furnished to Agent and the
Lenders, are true and complete, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, and fairly present the
financial condition of the Companies as of the dates of such financial statements and the results
of their operations for the periods then ending. Since the dates of such statements, there has
been no material adverse change in any Company’s financial condition, properties or business or any
change in any Company’s accounting procedures.
Section 6.15. Regulations. No Company is engaged principally or as one of its
important activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying
any “margin stock” (within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System of the United States of America). Neither the granting of any Loan (or any
conversion thereof) or Letter of Credit nor the use of the proceeds of any Loan or Letter of Credit
will violate, or be inconsistent with, the provisions of Regulation T, U or X or any other
Regulation of such Board of Governors.
Section 6.16. Material Agreements. Except as disclosed on Schedule 6.16
hereto, as of the Closing Date, no Company is a party to any (a) debt instrument (excluding the
Loan Documents); (b) lease (capital, operating or otherwise), whether as lessee or lessor
thereunder; (c) contract, commitment, agreement, or other arrangement involving the purchase or
sale of any inventory by it, or the license of any right to or by it; (d) contract, commitment,
agreement, or other arrangement with any of its “Affiliates” (as such term is defined in the
Exchange Act) other than a Company; (e) management or
employment contract or contract for personal services with any of its Affiliates that is not
otherwise terminable at will or on less than ninety (90) days’ notice without liability; (f)
collective bargaining agreement; or (g) other contract, agreement, understanding, or arrangement
with a third party; that, as to subsections (a) through (g), above, if violated, breached, or
terminated for any reason, would have or would be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.
Section 6.17. Intellectual Property. Each Company owns, or has the right to use, all
of the material patents, patent applications, industrial designs, designs, trademarks, service
marks, copyrights and licenses, and rights with respect to the foregoing, necessary for the conduct
of its business without any known material conflict with the rights of others. Schedule
6.17 hereto sets forth all patents, trademarks, copyrights, service marks and license
agreements owned by each Company as of the Closing Date.
Section 6.18. Insurance. Each Company maintains with financially sound and reputable
insurers insurance with coverage and limits as required by law and as is customary with Persons
engaged in the same businesses as the Companies. Schedule 6.18 hereto sets forth all
insurance
98
carried by the Companies on the Closing Date, setting forth in detail the amount and type
of such insurance.
Section 6.19. Deposit And Securities Accounts. Schedule 6.19 hereto lists
all banks, other financial institutions and Securities Intermediaries at which any Credit Party
maintains Deposit Accounts and Securities Accounts as of the Closing Date, and Schedule
6.19 hereto correctly identifies the name, address and telephone number of each such financial
institution or Security Intermediary, the name in which the account is held, a description of the
purpose of the account, and the complete account number therefor.
Section 6.20. Accurate and Complete Statements. Neither the Loan Documents nor any
written statement made by any Company in connection with any of the Loan Documents contains any
untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the
statements contained therein or in the Loan Documents not misleading. After due inquiry by
Borrowers, there is no known fact that any Company has not disclosed to Agent and the Lenders that
has or is likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.
Section 6.21. Investment Company; Other Restrictions. No Company is (a) an
“investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company” within the meaning of the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or (b) subject to any foreign, federal, state or local
statute or regulation limiting its ability to incur Indebtedness.
Section 6.22. Subordinated Indenture. (a) No “Default” or “Event of Default” (as
each term is defined in the Subordinated Indenture) exists, nor will any such Default or Event of
Default exist under the Subordinated
Indenture (or note or other agreement executed in connection therewith) immediately after the
occurrence of any Credit Event; (b) Schedule 6.22 hereto sets forth, as of the Closing
Date, all of the “Credit Facilities” (as defined in the Subordinated Indenture); (c) all of the
Obligations constitute “Senior Indebtedness”, “Guarantor Senior Indebtedness”, “Designated Senior
Indebtedness”, and “Designated Guarantor Senior Indebtedness” (as each term is defined in the
Subordinated Indenture); and (d) except for the Secured Obligations, no other Indebtedness of the
Companies constitutes “Designated Senior Indebtedness” or “Designated Guarantor Senior
Indebtedness” (as each term is defined in the Subordinated Indenture).
Section 6.23. Defaults. No Default or Event of Default exists hereunder, nor will
any begin to exist immediately after the execution and delivery hereof.
ARTICLE VII. CASH MANAGEMENT AND COLLATERAL
Section 7.1. Cash Management System. Borrowers shall establish and maintain, until
the payment in full of the Secured Obligations and the termination of the Commitment, the cash
management systems described below:
(a) Lockbox. On or before the Closing Date, the Credit Parties shall (i) establish
lockbox arrangements with Agent, on behalf of the Lenders (collectively, the “Lockbox”), which
99
shall be governed by the Master Agreement, and, within ten days after the Closing Date, shall
request in writing and otherwise take such reasonable steps to ensure that all Account Debtors of
the Credit Parties forward all Collections directly to the Lockbox (if the Credit Parties neglect
or refuse to notify any such Account Debtor to remit all such Collections to the Lockbox, Agent
shall be entitled to make such notification), (ii) hold in trust for Agent, as fiduciary for Agent,
all checks, cash and other items of payment received by the Credit Parties, and (iii) not commingle
any Collections with any other funds or property of the Credit Parties, but will hold such funds
separate and apart in trust and as fiduciary for Agent until deposit is made into the Concentration
Account.
(b) Concentration Account. On or before the Closing Date, the Credit Parties shall
have established a Concentration Account with Agent, on behalf of the Lenders. All moneys received
by the Credit Parties, including Collections from sales of Inventory or from Account Debtors of the
Credit Parties sent to the Lockbox, shall be deposited directly on a daily basis, and in any event
no later than the first Business Day after the date of receipt thereof, into the Concentration
Account in the identical form in which such moneys were received and Collections were made (except
for any necessary endorsements) whether by cash or check. All amounts deposited in the
Concentration Account from the Lockbox or any other source shall be under the sole and exclusive
control of Agent. The Credit Parties shall have no interest in or control over such funds;
provided that, (i) during a Cash Dominion Period, Agent shall transfer funds from the Concentration
Account to the Cash Collateral Account on a daily basis, and (ii) other than during a Cash Dominion
Period, Agent shall transfer funds from the Concentration
Account to the Operating Account on a daily basis, for use by the Credit Parties, in their sole
discretion, for purposes not prohibited by this Agreement. The Concentration Account shall not be
subject to any deduction, set off, banker’s lien or any other right in favor of any Person other
than Agent.
(c) Cash Collateral Account. On or before the Closing Date, the Credit Parties shall
have established a Cash Collateral Account with Agent, on behalf of the Lenders. All amounts
deposited in the Cash Collateral Account from the Concentration Account or any other source shall
be under the sole and exclusive control of Agent. The Credit Parties shall have no interest in or
control over such funds. The Cash Collateral Account shall not be subject to any deduction, set
off, banker’s lien or any other right in favor of any Person other than Agent.
(d) Operating Account. GSNY, for the benefit of the Credit Parties, shall maintain,
in its name, an Operating Account with Agent, into which Agent shall, (i) from time to time,
deposit proceeds of the Revolving Loans made to Borrowers for use by the Companies in accordance
with the provisions of Section 5.18 hereof, and (ii) other than during a Cash Dominion Period,
transfer funds from the Concentration Account on a daily basis for use by the Companies in their
sole discretion. Unless otherwise agreed by Agent and Borrowers, any Revolving Loan requested by
Administrative Borrower and made under this Agreement shall be deposited into the Operating
Account. During a Cash Dominion Period, the Credit Parties shall not accumulate or maintain cash
in the Operating Account or payroll or other such accounts, as of any date of determination, in
excess of checks outstanding against the Controlled Disbursement Account (or Controlled
Disbursement Accounts) and other deposit accounts approved by Agent (such as medical benefit
accounts, flexible spending accounts and automated
100
clearing house accounts) as of that date, and
amounts necessary to meet minimum balance requirements.
(e) Controlled Disbursement Account. The Credit Parties shall maintain one or more
Controlled Disbursement Accounts with Agent, on behalf of the Lenders. Borrowers shall base their
requests for Revolving Loans on, among other things, the daily balance of the Controlled
Disbursement Account (or Controlled Disbursement Accounts). During a Cash Dominion Period, the
Credit Parties shall not, and shall not cause or permit any Company, to maintain cash in any
Controlled Disbursement Account, as of any date of determination, in excess of checks outstanding
against such account as of that date, and amounts necessary to meet minimum balance requirements.
(f) Lockbox and Security Accounts. The Lockbox established pursuant to the Lockbox
agreement, the Concentration Account, the Cash Collateral Account, the Operating Account and the
Controlled Disbursement Accounts shall be Security Accounts, with all cash, checks and other
similar items of payment in such accounts securing payment of the Secured Obligations.
(g) Costs of Collection. All reasonable costs of collection of the Accounts of the
Credit Parties, including out-of-pocket expenses, administrative and record-keeping costs,
reasonable attorneys’ fees, and all service charges and costs related to the establishment and
maintenance of the Security Accounts shall be the sole responsibility of Borrowers, whether the
same are incurred by Agent or the Credit Parties. The Credit Parties each hereby indemnify and
hold Agent harmless from and against any loss or damage with respect to any deposits made in the
Security Accounts that are dishonored or returned for any reason. If any deposits are dishonored
or returned unpaid for any reason, Agent, in its sole discretion, may charge the amount thereof
against the Cash Collateral Account or any other Security Account or other Deposit Account of the
Credit Parties. Agent shall not be liable for any loss or damage resulting from any error,
omission, failure or negligence on the part of Agent, except losses or damages resulting from
Agent’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final judgment of a court of
competent jurisdiction.
(h) Return of Funds. Upon the payment in full of the Secured Obligations (other than
continuing indemnification obligations) and the termination of the Commitment hereunder, (i)
Agent’s security interests and other rights in funds in the Security Accounts shall terminate, (ii)
all rights to such funds shall revert to the Credit Parties, as applicable, and (iii) Agent will,
at Borrowers’ expense, take such steps as Administrative Borrower may reasonably request to
evidence the termination of such security interests and to effect the return to the Credit Parties
of such funds.
(i) Attorney-in-Fact to Endorse Documents. Agent, or Agent’s designated agent, is
hereby constituted and appointed attorney-in-fact for each Credit Party with authority and power to
endorse after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, or during a Cash
Dominion Period, any and all instruments, documents, and chattel paper (consistent with this
Agreement and the Master Agreement) upon the failure of such Credit Party to do so. Such authority
and power, being coupled with an interest, shall be (i) irrevocable until all of the
101
Secured
Obligations are paid, (ii) exercisable by Agent at any time and without any request upon any Credit
Party by Agent to so endorse, and (iii) exercisable in the name of Agent or any Credit Party. Each
Credit Party hereby waives presentment, demand, notice of dishonor, protest, notice of protest, and
any and all other similar notices with respect thereto, regardless of the form of any endorsement
thereof. Agent shall not be bound or obligated to take any action to preserve any rights therein
against prior parties thereto.
Section 7.2. Collections and Receipt of Proceeds by Agent. Each Credit Party hereby
constitutes and appoints Agent, or Agent’s designated agent, as such Borrower’s attorney-in-fact to
exercise, at any time, all or any of the following powers which, being coupled with an interest,
shall be irrevocable until the complete and full payment of all of the Secured Obligations:
(a) to receive, retain, acquire, take, endorse, assign, deliver, accept, and deposit, in the
name of Agent or such Credit Party (consistent with this Agreement and the Master Agreement), any
and all of such Credit Party’s cash, instruments, chattel paper, documents, Proceeds of Accounts,
Proceeds of Inventory, collection of Accounts, and any other writings relating to any of the
Collateral. Each Credit Party hereby waives presentment, demand, notice of dishonor, protest,
notice of protest, and any and all other similar notices with respect thereto, regardless of the
form of any endorsement thereof. Agent shall not be bound or obligated to take any action to
preserve any rights therein against prior parties thereto;
(b) to transmit to Account Debtors, on any or all of such Credit Party’s Accounts, after the
occurrence of an Event of Default, notice of assignment to Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders,
thereof and the security interest therein, and to request from such Account Debtors at any time, in
the name of Agent or such Credit Party, information concerning such Borrower’s Accounts and the
amounts owing thereon;
(c) after the occurrence of an Event of Default, to transmit to purchasers of any or all of
such Credit Party’s Inventory, notice of Agent’s security interest therein, and to request from
such purchasers at any time, in the name of Agent or such Credit Party, information concerning such
Credit Party’s Inventory and the amounts owing thereon by such purchasers;
(d) after the occurrence of an Event of Default, to notify and require Account Debtors on such
Credit Party’s Accounts and purchasers of such Credit Party’s Inventory to make payment of their
indebtedness directly to Agent;
(e) after the occurrence of an Event of Default, to enter into or assent to such amendment,
compromise, extension, release or other modification of any kind of, or substitution for, the
Accounts, or any thereof, as Agent, in its sole discretion, may deem to be advisable;
(f) after the occurrence of an Event of Default, to enforce the Accounts or any thereof, or
any other Collateral, by suit or otherwise, to maintain any such suit or other proceeding in the
name of Agent or one or more Credit Parties, and to withdraw any such suit or other proceeding.
The Credit Parties agree to lend every assistance requested by Agent in respect of the foregoing,
all at no cost or expense to Agent and including, without limitation, the furnishing of such
witnesses and of such records and other writings as Agent may require in
102
connection with making
legal proof of any Account. The Credit Parties agree to reimburse Agent in full for all court
costs and attorneys’ fees and every other cost, expense or liability, if any, incurred or paid by
Agent in connection with the foregoing, which obligation of the Credit Parties shall constitute
Obligations, shall be secured by the Collateral and shall bear interest, until paid, at the Default
Rate;
(g) to take or bring, in the name of Agent or such Credit Party, all steps, actions, suits, or
proceedings deemed by Agent necessary or desirable to effect the receipt, enforcement, and
collection of the Collateral; and
(h) to accept all collections in any form relating to the Collateral, including remittances
that may reflect deductions, and to deposit the same into such Credit Party’s Cash Collateral
Account or, at the option of Agent, to apply them as a payment against the Loans or any other
Secured Obligations in accordance with this Agreement.
Section 7.3. Agent’s Authority Under Pledged Notes. For the better protection of
Agent and the Lenders hereunder, each Credit Party, as appropriate, has executed (or will execute,
with respect to future Pledged Notes) an appropriate endorsement on (or separate from) each Pledged
Note and has deposited (or will deposit, with respect to future Pledged Notes) such Pledged Note
with Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders. Such Credit Party irrevocably authorizes and empowers
Agent,
for the benefit of the Lenders, to, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event
of Default, (a) ask for, demand, collect and receive all payments of principal of and interest on
the Pledged Notes; (b) compromise and settle any dispute arising in respect of the foregoing; (c)
execute and deliver vouchers, receipts and acquittances in full discharge of the foregoing; (d)
exercise, in Agent’s discretion, any right, power or privilege granted to the holder of any Pledged
Note by the provisions thereof including, without limitation, the right to demand security or to
waive any default thereunder; (e) endorse such Credit Party’s name to each check or other writing
received by Agent as a payment or other proceeds of or otherwise in connection with any Pledged
Note; (f) enforce delivery and payment of the principal and/or interest on the Pledged Notes, in
each case by suit or otherwise as Agent may desire; and (g) enforce the security, if any, for the
Pledged Notes by instituting foreclosure proceedings, by conducting public or other sales or
otherwise, and to take all other steps as Agent, in its discretion, may deem advisable in
connection with the forgoing; provided, however, that nothing contained or implied herein or
elsewhere shall obligate Agent to institute any action, suit or proceeding or to make or do any
other act or thing contemplated by this Section 7.3 or prohibit Agent from settling, withdrawing or
dismissing any action, suit or proceeding or require Agent to preserve any other right of any kind
in respect of the Pledged Notes and the security, if any, therefor.

shall exceed the lesser of (i) Twenty-Five Million Dollars ($25,000,000), or (ii) the Revolving
Credit Availability;
(b) one or more judgments, orders or decrees shall be entered against any Company involving a
required divestiture or any material properties, assets or business reasonably estimated to have a
fair value in excess of Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000), and any such judgments, orders or
decrees shall not have been vacated, discharged or stayed or bonded pending appeal within thirty
(30) days (or such longer period, not in excess of sixty (60) days,
during which enforcement thereof, and the filing of any judgment lien, is effectively stayed or
prohibited) from the entry thereof; or
(c) any one or more non-monetary final judgments that are not covered by insurance, or, if
covered by insurance, for which the insurance company has not agreed to or acknowledged coverage,
and that, in either case, the Required Lenders reasonably determine have, or could be expected to
have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect and, in either case, (i)
enforcement proceedings are commenced by the prevailing party or any creditor upon such judgment or
order, or (ii) there is a period of three consecutive Business Days during which a stay of
enforcement of such judgment, by reason of a pending appeal or otherwise, is not in effect.
Section 8.10. Security. If any Lien granted in this Agreement or any other Loan
Document in favor of Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, shall be determined to be (a) void,
voidable or invalid, or is subordinated or not otherwise given the priority contemplated by this
Agreement and Borrowers have (or the appropriate Credit Party has) failed to promptly execute
appropriate documents to correct such matters, or (b) unperfected as to any material amount of
Collateral (as determined by Agent, in its reasonable discretion) and Borrowers have (or the
appropriate Credit Party has) failed to promptly execute appropriate documents to correct such
matters.
Section 8.11. Validity of Loan Documents. If (a) any material provision, in the sole
opinion of Agent, of any Loan Document shall at any time cease to be valid, binding and enforceable
against any Credit Party; (b) the validity, binding effect or enforceability of any Loan Document
against any Credit Party shall be contested by any Credit Party; (c) any Credit Party shall deny
that it has any or further liability or obligation under any Loan Document; or (d) any Loan
Document shall be terminated, invalidated or set aside, or be declared ineffective or inoperative
or in any way cease to give or provide to Agent and the Lenders the benefits purported to be
created thereby.

ARTICLE IX. REMEDIES UPON DEFAULT
Notwithstanding any contrary provision or inference herein or elsewhere:
Section 9.1. Optional Defaults. If any Event of Default referred to in Section 8.1,
8.2, 8.3, 8.4, 8.5, 8.6, 8.7, 8.8, 8.9, 8.10, or 8.11 hereof shall occur, Agent may, with the
consent of the Required Lenders, and shall, at the written request of the Required Lenders, give
written notice to Borrowers to:
(a) terminate the Commitment, if not previously terminated, and, immediately upon such
election, the obligations of the Lenders, and each thereof, to make any further Loan, and the
obligation of the Fronting Lenders to issue any Letter of Credit, immediately shall be terminated;
and/or
(b) accelerate the maturity of all of the Obligations (if the Obligations are not already due
and payable), whereupon all of the Obligations shall become and thereafter be immediately
106
due and
payable in full without any presentment or demand and without any further or other notice of any
kind, all of which are hereby waived by each Borrower.
Section 9.2. Automatic Defaults. If any Event of Default referred to in Section 8.12
hereof shall occur:
(a) all of the Commitment shall automatically and immediately terminate, if not previously
terminated, and no Lender thereafter shall be under any obligation to grant any further Loan, nor
shall the Fronting Lenders be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit; and
(b) the principal of and interest then outstanding on all of the Loans, and all of the other
Obligations, shall thereupon become and thereafter be immediately due and payable in full
(if the Obligations are not already due and payable), all without any presentment, demand or notice
of any kind, which are hereby waived by each Borrower.
Section 9.3. Letters of Credit. If the maturity of the Obligations shall be
accelerated pursuant to Section 9.1 or 9.2 hereof, Borrowers shall immediately deposit with Agent,
as security for the obligations of Borrowers and any Guarantor of Payment to reimburse Agent and
the Revolving Lenders for any then outstanding Letters of Credit, cash equal to one hundred five
percent (105%) of the sum of the aggregate undrawn balance of any then outstanding Letters of
Credit. Agent and the Lenders are hereby authorized, at their option, to deduct any and all such
amounts from any deposit balances then owing by any Lender (or any affiliate of such Lender,
wherever located) to or for the credit or account of any Company, as security for the obligations
of Borrowers and any Guarantor of Payment to reimburse Agent and the Revolving Lenders for any then
outstanding Letters of Credit.
Section 9.4. Offsets. If there shall occur or exist any Event of Default referred to
in Section 8.12 hereof or if the maturity of the Obligations is accelerated pursuant to Section 9.1
or 9.2 hereof, each Lender shall have the right at any time to set off against, and to appropriate
and apply toward the payment of, any and all of the Obligations (other than Obligations under the
Xxxx/Norwesco Guaranty) then owing by Borrowers or a Guarantor of Payment to such Lender
(including, without limitation, any participation purchased or to be purchased pursuant to Section
2.2(b), 2.2(c) or 9.5 hereof), whether or not the same shall then have matured, any and all deposit
(general or special) balances and all other indebtedness then held or owing by such Lender
(including, without limitation, by branches and agencies or any affiliate of such Lender, wherever
located) to or for the credit or account of any Borrower or Guarantor of Payment, all without
notice to or demand upon any Borrower or any other Person, all such notices and demands being
hereby expressly waived by each Borrower.
Section 9.5. Equalization Provisions.
(a) Equalization Within Commitments Prior to an Equalization Event. Each Revolving
Lender agrees with the other Revolving Lenders that, if it at any time shall obtain any Advantage
over the other Revolving Lenders, or any thereof, in respect of the Applicable Debt (except as to
Swing Loans and Letters of Credit prior to Agent’s giving of notice to participate and amounts
under Article III hereof), such Revolving Lender shall purchase from the other
107
Revolving Lenders,
for cash and at par, such additional participation in the Applicable Debt as shall be necessary to
nullify the Advantage. Each Term Lender agrees with the other Term Lenders that, if it at any time
shall obtain any Advantage over the other Term Lenders, or any thereof, in respect of the
Applicable Debt (except as to amounts under Article III hereof), such Term Lender shall purchase
from the other Term Lenders, for cash and at par, such additional participation in the Applicable
Debt as shall be necessary to nullify the Advantage.
(b) Equalization Between Commitments After an Equalization Event. After the
occurrence of an Equalization Event, each Lender agrees with the other Lenders that, if such
Lender at any time shall obtain any Advantage over the other Lenders or any thereof determined in
respect of the Obligations (including Swing Loans and Letters of Credit but excluding amounts under
Article III hereof) then outstanding, such Lender shall purchase from the other Lenders, for cash
and at par, such additional participation in the Obligations as shall be necessary to nullify the
Advantage in respect of the Obligations. For purposes of determining whether or not, after the
occurrence of an Equalization Event, an Advantage in respect of the Obligations shall exist, Agent
shall, as of the date that the Equalization Event occurs:
(i) add the Revolving Credit Exposure and the Term Loan Exposure to determine the
equalization maximum amount (the “Equalization Maximum Amount”); and
(ii) determine an equalization percentage (the “Equalization Percentage”) for each
Lender by dividing the aggregate amount of its Lender Credit Exposure by the Equalization
Maximum Amount.
After the date of an Equalization Event, Agent shall determine whether an Advantage exists among
the Lenders by using the Equalization Percentage. Such determination shall be conclusive absent
manifest error.
(c) Recovery of Amount. If any such Advantage resulting in the purchase of an
additional participation as set forth in subsection (a) or (b) hereof shall be recovered in whole
or in part from the Lender receiving the Advantage, each such purchase shall be rescinded, and the
purchase price restored (but without interest unless the Lender receiving the Advantage is required
to pay interest on the Advantage to the Person recovering the Advantage from such Lender) ratably
to the extent of the recovery.
(d) Application and Sharing of Set-Off Amounts. Each Lender further agrees with the
other Lenders that, if it at any time shall receive any payment for or on behalf of a Borrower on
any Indebtedness owing by such Borrower to that Lender (whether by voluntary payment, by
realization upon security, by reason of offset of any deposit or other Indebtedness, by
counterclaim or cross action, by enforcement of any right under any Loan Document, or otherwise),
it shall apply such payment first to any and all Indebtedness owing by such Borrower to that Lender
pursuant to this Agreement (including, without limitation, any participation purchased or to be
purchased pursuant to this Section 9.5 or any other section of this Agreement). Each Credit Party
agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from the other Lenders, or any thereof,
pursuant to this Section 9.5 may exercise all of its rights of
108
payment (including the right of
set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of
such Credit Party in the amount of such participation.
Section 9.6. Collateral. Agent and the Lenders shall at all times have the rights
and remedies of a secured party under the U.C.C., in addition to the rights and remedies of a
secured party provided elsewhere within this Agreement, in any other Related Writing executed by
any Borrower or otherwise provided in law or equity. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default
and at all times thereafter, Agent may require Borrowers to assemble the Collateral, which each
Borrower agrees to do, and make it available
to Agent and the Lenders at a reasonably convenient place to be designated by Agent. Agent may,
with or without notice to or demand upon such Borrower and with or without the aid of legal
process, make use of such force as may be necessary to enter any premises where the Collateral, or
any thereof, may be found and to take possession thereof (including anything found in or on the
Collateral that is not specifically described in this Agreement, each of which findings shall be
considered to be an accession to and a part of the Collateral) and for that purpose may pursue the
Collateral wherever the same may be found, without liability for trespass or damage caused thereby
to such Borrower. After any delivery or taking of possession of the Collateral, or any thereof,
pursuant to this Agreement, then, with or without resort to any Borrower personally or any other
Person or property, all of which each Borrower hereby waives, and upon such terms and in such
manner as Agent may deem advisable, Agent, in its discretion, may sell, assign, transfer and
deliver any of the Collateral at any time, or from time to time. No prior notice need be given to
any Borrower or to any other Person in the case of any sale of Collateral that Agent determines to
be perishable or to be declining speedily in value or that is customarily sold in any recognized
market, but in any other case Agent shall give Borrowers not fewer than ten days prior notice of
either the time and place of any public sale of the Collateral or of the time after which any
private sale or other intended disposition thereof is to be made. Each Borrower waives
advertisement of any such sale and (except to the extent specifically required by the preceding
sentence) waives notice of any kind in respect of any such sale. At any such public sale, Agent or
the Lenders may purchase the Collateral, or any part thereof, free from any right of redemption,
all of which rights each Borrower hereby waives and releases. After deducting all Related
Expenses, and after paying all claims, if any, secured by Liens having precedence over this
Agreement, Agent may apply the net proceeds of each such sale to or toward the payment of the
Secured Obligations, whether or not then due, in such order and by such division as Agent, in its
sole discretion, may deem advisable. Any excess, to the extent permitted by law, shall be paid to
Borrowers, and each Borrower shall remain liable for any deficiency. In addition, Agent shall at
all times have the right to obtain new appraisals of any Borrower or the Collateral, the cost of
which shall be paid by Borrowers.
Section 9.7. Agent’s Rights to Occupy and Use Property of Credit Parties.
(a) After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and as part of an
exercise of remedies by Agent under the Loan Documents, Agent shall have the right to enter upon
and into, and take possession of, all or such part or parts of the properties of the Credit
Parties, including lands, plants, buildings, Equipment, Inventory and other property as may be
necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable judgment of Agent, to permit or enable Agent, or
Agent’s designee, to manufacture, produce, process, store or sell or complete the
109
manufacture,
production, processing, storing or sale of all or any part of the Collateral, as Agent may elect,
and to use and operate said properties for said purposes and for such length of time as Agent may
deem necessary or appropriate for such purposes without the payment of any compensation to any
Credit Party therefor.
(b) Agent is hereby granted a license or other right to use, without charge, after the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and as part of an exercise of remedies
by Agent under the Loan Documents, all of each Credit Party’s property, including,
without limitation, all of such Credit Party’s labels, trademarks, copyrights, patents and
advertising matter, or any property of a similar nature, as it pertains to the Collateral, in
completing production of, advertising for sale and selling any Collateral, and such Credit Party’s
rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to Agent’s benefit until the
Secured Obligations are paid in full.
Section 9.8. Other Remedies. The remedies in this Article IX are in addition to, not
in limitation of, any other right, power, privilege, or remedy, either in law, in equity, or
otherwise, to which the Lenders may be entitled. Agent shall exercise the rights under this
Article IX and all other collection efforts on behalf of the Lenders and no Lender shall act
independently with respect thereto, except as otherwise specifically set forth in this Agreement.
Section 9.9. Application of Certain Payments and Proceeds. All payments and other
amounts received by Agent or any Lender through the exercise of remedies hereunder or under the
other Loan Documents shall, unless otherwise required by the terms of the other Loan Documents or
by applicable law, be applied as follows:
(a) first, to the payment of all expenses (to the extent not otherwise paid by Borrowers or
any of the other Credit Parties) incurred by Agent and the Lenders in connection with the exercise
of such remedies, including, without limitation, all reasonable costs and expenses of collection,
reasonable documented attorneys’ fees, court costs and any foreclosure expenses;
(b) second, to the payment pro rata of interest then accrued on the outstanding Loans;
(c) third, to the payment pro rata of any fees then accrued and payable to Agent, any Fronting
Lender or any Lender under this Agreement in respect of the Loans or the Letter of Credit Exposure;
(d) fourth, to the payment pro rata of (i) the principal balance then owing on the outstanding
Loans, (ii) the amounts then due under Designated Hedge Agreements to creditors of Borrowers or any
Subsidiary, subject to confirmation by Agent of any calculations of termination or other payment
amounts being made in accordance with normal industry practice, and (iii) the Letter of Credit
Exposure (to be held and applied by Agent as security for the reimbursement obligations in respect
thereof);
110
(e) fifth, to the payment to the Lenders of any amounts then accrued and unpaid under Article
III hereof, and if such proceeds are insufficient to pay such amounts in full, to the payment of
such amounts pro rata;
(f) sixth, to the payment pro rata of all other amounts owed by Borrowers to Agent, to any
Fronting Lender or any Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and to any
counterparties under Designated Hedge Agreements of the Companies, and if such proceeds are
insufficient to pay such amounts in full, to the payment of such amounts pro rata;
(g) seventh, to the payment pro rata of all Bank Product Obligations, to the extent not
already paid pursuant to the subsections above; and
(h) finally, any remaining surplus after all of the Obligations have been paid in full, to
Borrowers or to whomsoever shall be lawfully entitled thereto.
ARTICLE X. THE AGENT
The Lenders authorize KeyBank and KeyBank hereby agrees to act as agent for the Lenders in
respect of this Agreement upon the terms and conditions set forth elsewhere in this Agreement, and
upon the following terms and conditions:
Section 10.1. Appointment and Authorization. Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints
and authorizes Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers
hereunder as are delegated to Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are
reasonably incidental thereto. Neither Agent nor any of its affiliates, directors, officers,
attorneys or employees shall (a) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or
them hereunder or in connection herewith, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful
misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), or be responsible in any manner to
any of the Lenders for the effectiveness, enforceability, genuineness, validity or due execution of
this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, (b) be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain
or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions
hereof or thereof on the part of Borrowers or any other Company, or the financial condition of
Borrowers or any other Company, or (c) be liable to any of the Companies for consequential damages
resulting from any breach of contract, tort or other wrong in connection with the negotiation,
documentation, administration or collection of the Loans or Letters of Credit or any of the Loan
Documents. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement or in any
other Loan Document, Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility except those expressly set
forth herein, nor shall Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender
or participant, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or
liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against
Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent”
herein and in other Loan Documents with reference to Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary
or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law.
Instead, such term is used
111
merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or
reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.
Section 10.2. Note Holders. Agent may treat the payee of any Note as the holder
thereof (or, if there is no Note, the holder of the interest as reflected on the books and records
of Agent) until written notice of transfer shall have been filed with Agent, signed by such payee
and in form satisfactory to Agent.
Section 10.3. Consultation With Counsel. Agent may consult with legal counsel
selected by Agent and shall not be liable for any action taken or suffered in good faith by Agent
in accordance with the opinion of such counsel.
Section 10.4. Documents. Agent shall not be under any duty to examine into or pass
upon the validity, effectiveness, genuineness or value of any Loan Document or any other Related
Writing furnished pursuant hereto or in connection herewith or the value of any collateral obtained
hereunder, and Agent shall be entitled to assume that the same are valid, effective and genuine and
what they purport to be.
Section 10.5. Agent and Affiliates. KeyBank and its affiliates may make loans to,
issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and
generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business
with the Companies and Affiliates as though KeyBank were not Agent hereunder and without notice to
or consent of any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that, pursuant to such activities, KeyBank or
its affiliates may receive information regarding any Company or any Affiliate (including
information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Company or such
Affiliate) and acknowledge that Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to
other Lenders. With respect to Loans and Letters of Credit (if any), KeyBank and its affiliates
shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise the
same as though KeyBank were not Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” include KeyBank and its
affiliates, to the extent applicable, in their individual capacities.
Section 10.6. Knowledge or Notice of Default. Agent shall not be deemed to have
knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default unless Agent has received
written notice from a Lender or Administrative Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing
such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the
event that Agent receives such a notice, Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders. Agent
shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably
directed by the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders); provided
that, unless and until Agent shall have received such directions, Agent may (but shall not be
obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or
Event of Default as it shall deem advisable, in its discretion, for the protection of the interests
of the Lenders.
Section 10.7. Action by Agent. Subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, so
long as Agent shall be entitled, pursuant to Section 10.6 hereof, to assume that no Default or
Event of
112
Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Agent shall be entitled to use its
discretion with respect to exercising or refraining from exercising any rights that may be vested
in it by, or with respect to taking or refraining from taking any action or actions that it may be
able to take under or in respect of, this Agreement. Agent shall incur no liability under or in
respect of this Agreement by acting upon any notice, certificate, warranty or other paper or
instrument believed by it to be genuine or authentic or to be signed by the proper party or
parties, or with respect to anything that it may do
or refrain from doing in the reasonable exercise of its judgment, or that may seem to it to be
necessary or desirable in the premises. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any
right of action whatsoever against Agent as a result of Agent’s acting or refraining from acting
hereunder in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders.
Section 10.8. Release of Collateral or Guarantor of Payment. In the event of (a) a
transfer of assets permitted by Section 5.12 hereof (or otherwise permitted pursuant to this
Agreement), where the proceeds of such transfer are applied in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement to the extent required to be so applied, or (b) a dissolution of a Non-Material
Subsidiary as permitted by Section 5.5 hereof, Agent, at the request and expense of Borrowers, is
hereby authorized by the Lenders, to the extent applicable, (i) to release such Collateral from
this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) to release a Guarantor of Payment in connection
with such permitted transfer or dissolution, and (iii) to duly assign, transfer and deliver to the
affected Company (without recourse and without any representation or warranty) such Collateral as
is then (or has been) so transferred or released and as may be in possession of Agent and has not
theretofore been released pursuant to this Agreement.
Section 10.9. Delegation of Duties. Agent may execute any of its duties under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall
be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultants or experts concerning all matters pertaining
to such duties. Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or
attorney-in-fact that it selects in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, as
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.
Section 10.10. Indemnification of Agent. The Lenders agree to indemnify Agent (to
the extent not reimbursed by Borrowers) ratably, according to their respective Overall Commitment
Percentages, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties,
actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) or
disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted
against Agent in its capacity as agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or
any Loan Document or any action taken or omitted by Agent with respect to this Agreement or any
Loan Document, provided that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including
attorneys’ fees and expenses) or disbursements resulting from Agent’s gross negligence or willful
misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, or from any action taken or omitted
by Agent in any capacity other than as agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document. No
action taken in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders shall be deemed to
constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section 10.10. The
undertaking in this Section 10.10 shall survive repayment of the Loans, cancellation of the Notes,
if any, expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit, termination of the Commitment,
113
any
foreclosure under, or modification, release or discharge of, any or all of the Loan Documents,
termination of this Agreement and the resignation or replacement of the agent.
Section 10.11. Successor Agent. Agent may resign as agent hereunder by giving not
fewer than thirty (30) days prior written notice to Administrative Borrower and the Lenders. If
Agent shall resign under this Agreement, then either (a) the Required Lenders shall appoint from
among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders (with the consent of Administrative Borrower so
long as an Event of Default does not exist and which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld),
or (b) if a successor agent shall not be so appointed and approved within the thirty (30) day
period following Agent’s notice to the Lenders of its resignation, then Agent shall appoint a
successor agent that shall serve as agent until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a
successor agent. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Agent by the date that is
thirty (30) days following a retiring Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Agent’s
resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective, and the Lenders (or other appropriate
holders of the Secured Obligations) shall assume and perform all of the duties of Agent hereunder
until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above.
Upon its appointment, such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties as agent,
and the term “Agent” means such successor effective upon its appointment, and the former agent’s
rights, powers and duties as agent shall be terminated without any other or further act or deed on
the part of such former agent or any of the parties to this Agreement. After any retiring Agent’s
resignation as Agent, the provisions of this Article X shall inure to its benefit as to any actions
taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents.
Section 10.12. Fronting Lender. Each Fronting Lender shall act on behalf of the
Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by such Fronting Lender and the documents
associated therewith. Such Fronting Lender shall have all of the benefits and immunities (a)
provided to Agent in Article X hereof with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by each
Fronting Lender in connection with the Letters of Credit and the applications and agreements for
letters of credit pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Agent”, as used in
Article X hereof, included such Fronting Lender with respect to such acts or omissions, and (b) as
additionally provided in this Agreement with respect to such Fronting Lender.
Section 10.13. Swing Line Lender. The Swing Line Lender shall act on behalf of the
Lenders with respect to any Swing Loans. The Swing Line Lender shall have all of the benefits and
immunities (a) provided to Agent in this Article X with respect to any acts taken or omissions
suffered by the Swing Line Lender in connection with the Swing Loans as fully as if the term
“Agent”, as used in this Article X, included the Swing Line Lender with respect to such acts or
omissions, and (b) as additionally provided in this Agreement with respect to the Swing Line
Lender.
Section 10.14. Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any
receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment,
composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Credit Party, (a) Agent (irrespective of
whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by
114
declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether Agent shall have made any demand on any
Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, to (i)
file and prove a claim for
the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, and all
other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or
advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and Agent (including any claim for the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and Agent and their
respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and Agent) allowed in such
judicial proceedings, and (ii) collect and receive any monies or other property payable or
deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and (b) any custodian, receiver,
assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial
proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to Agent and, in the event
that Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to Agent
any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Agent and
its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due Agent. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed
to authorize Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan
of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights
of any Lender or to authorize Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such
proceeding.

pursuant to the Patriot Act or the regulations thereunder, including the regulations contained in
31 CFR 103.121 (as hereafter amended or replaced, the “CIP Regulations”), or any other

ARTICLE XI. GUARANTY
Section 11.1. Guaranty by Borrowers. Borrowers hereby unconditionally guarantee, for
the benefit of the Designated Hedge Creditors, all of the Designated Hedge Obligations. Upon
failure by any Credit Party to pay punctually any of the Designated Hedge Obligations, Borrowers
shall forthwith on demand by Agent pay the amount not so paid at the place and in the currency and
otherwise in the manner specified in this Agreement or any other applicable agreement or
instrument.
Section 11.2. Additional Undertaking. As a separate, additional and continuing
obligation, Borrowers unconditionally and irrevocably undertake and agree, for the benefit of the
Designated Hedge Creditors that, should any Designated Hedge Obligations not be recoverable from
any Borrower under Section 11.1 hereof for any reason whatsoever (including, without limitation, by
reason of any provision of any Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument executed in
connection therewith being or becoming void, unenforceable, or otherwise invalid under any
applicable law) then, notwithstanding any notice or knowledge thereof by any Lender, Agent, any of
their respective affiliates, or any other Person, at any time, Borrowers as sole, original and
independent obligors, upon demand by Agent, will make payment to Agent, for the account of the
Designated Hedge Creditors, of all such obligations not so recoverable by way of full indemnity, in
such currency and otherwise in such manner as is provided in the Loan Documents or any other
applicable agreement or instrument.
Section 11.3. Guaranty Unconditional. The obligations of Borrowers under this
Article XI shall be unconditional and absolute and, without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, shall not be released, discharged or otherwise affected by the occurrence, one or more
times, of any of the following:
(a) any extension, renewal, settlement, compromise, waiver or release in respect to the
Designated Hedge Obligations under any agreement or instrument, by operation of law or
otherwise;
(b) any modification or amendment of or supplement to this Agreement, any Note, any
other Loan Document, or any agreement or instrument evidencing or relating to any Designated
Hedge Obligation;
(c) any release, non-perfection or invalidity of any direct or indirect security for
the Designated Hedge Obligations under any agreement or instrument evidencing or relating to
any Designated Hedge Obligation;
(d) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of any Credit Party
or other Company or any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding
affecting any Credit Party or other Company or its assets or any resulting release or
discharge of any obligation of any Credit Party or other Company contained in any agreement
or instrument evidencing or relating to any of the Designated Hedge Obligations;
116
(e) the existence of any claim, set-off or other rights that Borrowers may have at any
time against any other Credit Party, Agent, any Lender, any affiliate of any Lender or any
other Person, whether in connection herewith or any unrelated transactions;
(f) any invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against any other Credit Party,
for any reason, of any agreement or instrument evidencing or relating to any of the
Designated Hedge Obligations, or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to
prohibit the payment by any Credit Party of any of the Designated Hedge Obligations; or
(g) any other act or omission of any kind by any other Credit Party, Agent, any Lender
or any other Person, or any other circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions
of this Article XI, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of Borrowers’ obligations
under this Article XI other than the irrevocable payment in full of all of the Designated
Hedge Obligations.
Section 11.4. Borrowers’ Obligations to Remain in Effect; Restoration.
(a) Borrowers’ obligations under this Article XI shall remain in full force and effect
until the Commitment shall have terminated, and the principal of and interest on the Loans
and Designated Hedge Obligations, and all other amounts payable by Borrowers, any other
Credit Party or other Company, under the Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument
evidencing or relating to any of the Designated Hedge Obligations, shall have been paid in
full; provided that, if the Commitment shall have been terminated and all of the Obligations
paid in full, then, if any obligations shall remain outstanding under the Designated Hedge
Agreements, then Borrowers shall cash collateralize, in form and substance satisfactory to
Agent, such obligations based on the net termination value of such Designated Hedge
Agreements on such termination date.
(b) If at any time any payment of any of the Designated Hedge Obligations is rescinded
or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization
of such Credit Party, Borrowers’ obligations under this Article XI with respect to such
payment shall be reinstated at such time as though such payment had been due but not made at
such time.
Section 11.5. Certain Waivers. Borrowers irrevocably waive acceptance hereof,
presentment, demand, protest and any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement
that at any time any action be taken by any Person against any other Credit Party or any other
Person, or against any collateral or guaranty of any other Person.
Section 11.6. Subrogation. Until the indefeasible payment in full of all of the
Obligations and the termination of the Commitments hereunder, Borrowers shall have no rights, by
operation of law or otherwise, upon making any
payment under this Article XI to be subrogated to the rights of the payee against any other Credit
Party with respect to such payment or otherwise to be reimbursed, indemnified or exonerated by any
such Credit Party in respect thereof.
117
Section 11.7. Effect of Stay. In the event that acceleration of the time for payment
of any amount payable by any Credit Party under any of the Designated Hedge Obligations is stayed
upon insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of such Credit Party, all such amounts otherwise
subject to acceleration under the terms of any applicable agreement or instrument evidencing or
relating to any of the Designated Hedge Obligations shall nonetheless be payable by Borrowers under
this Article XI forthwith on demand by Agent.

the part of Agent, any Lender or the holder of any Note (or, if there is no Note, the holder of the
interest as reflected on the books and records of Agent) in exercising any right, power or remedy
hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any
single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy hereunder or under any of the
Loan Documents. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and in addition to any other rights,
powers or privileges held under any of the Loan Documents or by operation of law, by contract or

Lenders);

time of any scheduled payment of the Term Loan as provided for in Section 2.3 hereof shall
be made without the written consent of all the Term Lenders and the Required Revolving

telephonic instructions from any person that Agent in good faith believes is an Authorized Officer
and Borrowers shall hold Agent and each Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense resulting
from any such reliance.
Section 12.5. Costs, Expenses and Documentary Taxes. Borrowers agree to pay on
demand all reasonable costs and expenses of Agent and all reasonable Related Expenses, including
but not limited to (a) syndication, administration, travel and out-of-pocket expenses, including

Agreement.

of any kind or nature whatsoever that may
be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against Agent or any Lender in connection with any
investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding (whether or not such Lender or Agent shall be
designated a party thereto) or any other claim by any Person relating to or arising out of any Loan
Document or any actual or proposed use of proceeds of the Loans or any of the Obligations, or any
activities of any Company or its Affiliates; provided that no Lender nor Agent shall have the right
to be indemnified under this Section 12.6 for its own (or its respective affiliates’, officers’,
directors’, attorneys’, agents’ or employees’) gross negligence or willful misconduct, as
determined by a court of competent
121
jurisdiction. All obligations provided for in this Section 12.6
shall survive any termination of this Agreement.
Section 12.7. Obligations Several; No Fiduciary Obligations. The obligations of the
Lenders hereunder are several and not joint. Nothing contained in this Agreement and no action
taken by Agent or the Lenders pursuant hereto shall be deemed to constitute Agent or the Lenders a
partnership, association, joint venture or other entity. No default by any Lender hereunder shall
excuse the other Lenders from any obligation under this Agreement; but no Lender shall have or
acquire any additional obligation of any kind by reason of such default. The relationship between
Borrowers and the Lenders with respect to the Loan Documents and the Related Writings is and shall
be solely that of debtors and creditors, respectively, and neither Agent nor any Lender shall have
any fiduciary obligation toward any Credit Party with respect to any such documents or the
transactions contemplated thereby.
Section 12.8. Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any
number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, and by facsimile
signature, each of which counterparts when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an
original and all of which taken together shall constitute but one and the same agreement.
Signatures for the signing Term Lenders are part of this Agreement, and are attached to Agent’s
executed version of this Agreement.

Lenders and their respective successors and assigns, except that no Borrower shall have the right
to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of Agent
and all of the Lenders.
Section 12.10. Lender Assignments.
(a) Assignments of Commitments. Each Lender shall have the right at any time or times
to assign to an Eligible Transferee (other than to a Lender that shall not be in compliance with
this Agreement), without recourse, all or a percentage of all of the following: (i) such Lender’s
Commitment, (ii) all Loans made by that Lender, (iii) such Lender’s Notes, and (iv) such Lender’s
interest in any Letter of Credit or Swing Loan, and any participation purchased pursuant to Section
2.2(b) or (c) or Section 9.5 hereof.
(b) Prior Consent. No assignment may be consummated pursuant to this Section 12.10
without the prior written consent of Administrative Borrower and Agent (other than an assignment by
any Lender to any affiliate of such Lender which affiliate is an Eligible Transferee and either
wholly-owned by a Lender or is wholly-owned by a Person that wholly owns, either directly or
indirectly, such Lender, or to another Lender), which consent of Administrative Borrower and Agent
shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided that (i) the consent of Administrative Borrower shall
not be required if, at the time of the proposed assignment, any Default or Event of Default shall
then exist and (ii) Administrative Borrower shall be deemed to have granted its consent unless
Administrative Borrower has expressly objected to such
122
assignment within five Business Days after
notice thereof. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, any Lender may at any time make a
collateral assignment of all or any portion of its rights under the Loan Documents to a Federal
Reserve Bank, and no such assignment shall release such assigning Lender from its obligations
hereunder.
(c) Minimum Amount. Each such assignment shall be in a minimum amount of Five Million
Dollars ($5,000,000) with respect to the Revolving Credit Commitment and One Million Dollars
($1,000,000) with respect to the Term Loan Commitment and interest herein; or, in each case, if
less, the entire amount of the assignor’s Commitment and interest herein.
(d) Assignment Fee. Unless the assignment shall be to an affiliate of the assignor or
the assignment shall be due to merger of the assignor or for regulatory purposes, either the
assignor or the assignee shall remit to Agent, for its own account, an administrative fee of Three
Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($3,500).
(e) Assignment Agreement. Unless the assignment shall be due to merger of the
assignor or a collateral assignment for regulatory purposes, the assignor shall (i) cause the
assignee to execute and deliver to Administrative Borrower and Agent an Assignment Agreement, and
(ii) execute and deliver, or cause the assignee to execute and deliver, as the case may be, to
Agent such additional amendments, assurances and other writings as Agent may reasonably require.
(f) Non-U.S. Assignee. If the assignment is to be made to an assignee that is
organized under the laws of any jurisdiction other than the United States or any state thereof, the
assignor Lender shall cause such assignee, at least five Business Days prior to the effective date
of such assignment, (i) to represent to the assignor Lender (for the benefit of the assignor
Lender, Agent and Borrowers) that under applicable law and treaties no taxes will be required to be
withheld by Agent, Borrowers or the assignor with respect to any payments to be made to such
assignee in respect of the Loans hereunder, (ii) to furnish to the assignor Lender (and, in the
case of any assignee registered in the Register (as defined below), Agent and Borrowers) either
U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, Form W-8IMY or U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form
W-8BEN, as applicable (wherein such assignee claims entitlement to complete exemption from U.S.
federal withholding tax on all payments hereunder), and (iii) to agree (for the benefit of the
assignor, Agent and Borrowers) to provide to the assignor Lender (and, in the case of any assignee
registered in the Register, to Agent and Borrowers) a new Form W-8ECI or Form W-8BEN, as
applicable, upon the expiration or obsolescence of any previously delivered form
and comparable statements in accordance with applicable U.S. laws and regulations and amendments
duly executed and completed by such assignee, and to comply from time to time with all applicable
U.S. laws and regulations with regard to such withholding tax exemption.
(g) Deliveries by Borrowers. Upon satisfaction of all applicable requirements
specified in subsections (a) through (f) above, Borrowers shall execute and deliver (i) to Agent,
the assignor and the assignee, any consent or release (of all or a portion of the obligations of
the assignor) required to be delivered by Borrowers in connection with the Assignment Agreement,
and (ii) to the assignee, if requested, and the assignor, if applicable, an appropriate Note or
123
Notes. After delivery of the new Note or Notes, the assignor’s Note or Notes, if any, being
replaced shall be returned to Administrative Borrower marked “replaced”.
(h) Effect of Assignment. Upon satisfaction of all applicable requirements set forth
in subsections (a) through (g) above, and any other condition contained in this Section 12.10, (i)
the assignee shall become and thereafter be deemed to be a “Lender” for the purposes of this
Agreement, (ii) the assignor shall be released from its obligations hereunder to the extent that
its interest has been assigned, (iii) in the event that the assignor’s entire interest has been
assigned, the assignor shall cease to be and thereafter shall no longer be deemed to be a “Lender”
and (iv) the signature pages hereto and Schedule 1 hereto shall be automatically amended,
without further action, to reflect the result of any such assignment.
(i) Agent to Maintain Register. Agent shall maintain at the address for notices
referred to in Section 12.4 hereof a copy of each Assignment Agreement delivered to it and a
register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the
Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender from time to time. The
entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and Borrowers, Agent
and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of the
Loan recorded therein for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for
inspection by Borrowers or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable
prior notice.
Section 12.11. Sale of Participations. Any Lender may, in the ordinary course of its
commercial banking business and in accordance with applicable law, at any time sell participations
to one or more Eligible Transferees (each a “Participant”) in all or a portion of its rights or
obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, all
or a portion of the Commitment and the Loans and participations owing to it and the Note, if any,
held by it); provided that:
(a) any such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents
shall remain unchanged;
(b) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the
performance of such obligations;
(c) the parties hereto shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in
connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and each of the
other Loan Documents;
(d) such Participant shall be bound by the provisions of Section 9.5 hereof, and the
Lender selling such participation shall obtain from such Participant a written confirmation
of its agreement to be so bound; and
(e) no Participant (unless such Participant is itself a Lender) shall be entitled to
require such Lender to take or refrain from taking action under this Agreement or under any
other Loan Document, except that such Lender may agree with such
124
Participant that such
Lender will not, without such Participant’s consent, take action of the type described as
follows:
(i) increase the portion of the participation amount of any Participant over
the amount thereof then in effect, or extend the Commitment Period, without the
written consent of each Participant affected thereby; or
(ii) reduce the principal amount of or extend the time for any payment of
principal of any Loan, or reduce the rate of interest or extend the time for payment
of interest on any Loan, or reduce the facility fee, without the written consent of
each Participant affected thereby.
Borrowers agree that any Lender that sells participations pursuant to this Section 12.11 shall
still be entitled to the benefits of Article III hereof, notwithstanding any such transfer;
provided that the obligations of Borrowers shall not increase as a result of such transfer and
Borrowers shall have no obligation to any Participant.
Section 12.12. Replacement of Defaulting Lenders or Insolvent Lenders. Each Lender
agrees that during the time in which any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or an Insolvent Lender,
Agent shall have the right, and Agent shall, if requested by Administrative Borrower, at the sole
expense of Borrowers, upon notice to such Defaulting Lender or Insolvent Lender and Administrative
Borrower, require such Defaulting Lender or Insolvent Lender to assign and delegate, without
recourse (in accordance with the restrictions contained in Section 12.10 hereof) all of its
interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an Eligible Transferee, approved by Agent
and Administrative Borrower, that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another
Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that such Defaulting Lender or Insolvent
Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans,
accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder (recognizing
that any Defaulting Lender may have given up its rights under this Agreement to receive payment of
fees and other amounts pursuant to Sections 2.9 and 3.1 hereof), from such Eligible Transferee (to
the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or Administrative Borrower
(in the case of all other amounts, including any breakage compensation under Article III hereof).
Section 12.13. Patriot Act Notice. Each Lender and Agent (for itself and not on
behalf of any other party) hereby notifies the Credit Parties that, pursuant to the requirements of
the Patriot Act, such Lender and Agent are required to obtain, verify and record information that
identifies the Credit Parties, which information includes the name and address of each of the
Credit Parties and other information that will allow such Lender or Agent, as applicable, to
identify the Credit Parties in accordance with the Patriot Act. Each Borrower shall provide, to
the extent commercially reasonable, such information and take such actions as are reasonably
requested by Agent or a Lender in order to assist Agent or such Lender in maintaining compliance
with the Patriot Act.
Section 12.14. Severability of Provisions; Captions; Attachments. Any provision of
this Agreement that shall be prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such
125
jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without
invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such
provision in any other jurisdiction. The several captions to sections and subsections herein are
inserted for convenience only and shall be ignored in interpreting the provisions of this
Agreement. Each schedule or exhibit attached to this Agreement shall be incorporated herein and
shall be deemed to be a part hereof.
Section 12.15. Investment Purpose. Each of the Lenders represents and warrants to
Borrowers that it is entering into this Agreement with the present intention of acquiring any Note
issued pursuant hereto (or, if there is no Note, the interest as reflected on the books and records
of Agent) for investment purposes only and not for the purpose of distribution or resale, it being
understood, however, that each Lender shall at all times retain full control over the disposition
of its assets.
Section 12.16. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, any Note and any other
Loan Document or other agreement, document or instrument attached hereto or executed on, or as of,
the Original Closing Date (as such documents may have been amended or replaced) and the Closing
Date integrate all of the terms and conditions mentioned herein or incidental hereto and supersede
all oral representations and negotiations and prior writings with respect to the subject matter
hereof.
Section 12.17. Confidentiality. Agent and each Lender shall hold all Confidential
Information in accordance with the customary procedures of Agent or such Lender for handling
confidential information of this nature, and in accordance with safe and sound banking practices.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Agent or any Lender may in any event make disclosures of, and
furnish copies of Confidential Information (a) to another agent under this Agreement or another
Lender; (b) when reasonably required by any bona fide transferee or participant in connection with
the contemplated transfer of any Loans or Commitment or participation therein (provided that each
such prospective transferee or participant shall have an agreement for the benefit of Borrowers
with such prospective transferor Lender or participant containing substantially similar provisions
to those contained in this Section 12.17); (c) to the parent corporation or other affiliates of
Agent or such Lender, and to their respective auditors and attorneys; and (d) as required or
requested by any Governmental
Authority or representative thereof, or pursuant to legal process, provided, that, unless
specifically prohibited by applicable law or court order, Agent or such Lender, as applicable,
shall notify the chief financial officer of Administrative Borrower of any request by any
Governmental Authority or representative thereof (other than any such request in connection with an
examination of the financial condition of Agent or such Lender by such Governmental Authority), and
of any other request pursuant to legal process, for disclosure of any such non-public information
prior to disclosure of such Confidential Information. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to
the contrary, Agent, each Lender, Borrowers and their Affiliates may disclose to any and all
Persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions
contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents and materials of any kind (including opinions
or other tax analyses) that are provided to Agent, any Lender, Borrowers or their Affiliates
relating to such tax treatment and tax structure; it being understood that this authorization is
retroactively effective to the commencement of the first discussions between or among any of the
parties regarding the
126
transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents. In no
event shall Agent or any Lender be obligated or required to return any materials furnished by or on
behalf of any Company. Each Borrower hereby agrees that the failure of Agent or any Lender to
comply with the provisions of this Section 12.17 shall not relieve any Borrower of any of the
obligations to Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
Section 12.18. Limitations on Liability of the Fronting Lenders. Borrowers assume
all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee of any Letter of Credit with
respect to its use of such Letters of Credit. Neither any Fronting Lender nor any of its officers
or directors shall be liable or responsible for (a) the use that may be made of any Letter of
Credit or any acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee in connection therewith; (b) the
validity, sufficiency or genuineness of documents, or of any endorsement thereon, even if such
documents should prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, fraudulent or forged;
(c) payment by a Fronting Lender against presentation of documents that do not comply with the
terms of a Letter of Credit, including failure of any documents to bear any reference or adequate
reference to such Letter of Credit; or (d) any other circumstances whatsoever in making or failing
to make payment under any Letter of Credit, except that the account party on such Letter of Credit
shall have a claim against a Fronting Lender, and a Fronting Lender shall be liable to such account
party, to the extent of any direct, but not consequential, damages suffered by such account party
that such account party proves were caused by (i) such Fronting Lender’s willful misconduct or
gross negligence (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction) in determining whether
documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or
(ii) such Fronting Lender’s willful failure to make lawful payment under any Letter of Credit after
the presentation to it of documentation strictly complying with the terms and conditions of such
Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, a Fronting Lender may
accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further
investigation.
Section 12.19. General Limitation of Liability. No claim may be made by any Credit
Party, any Lender, Agent, any Fronting Lender or any other Person against Agent, any Fronting
Lender, or any other Lender or
the affiliates, directors, officers, employees, attorneys or agents of any of them for any damages
other than actual compensatory damages in respect of any claim for breach of contract or any other
theory of liability arising out of or related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or
any of the other Loan Documents, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith;
and Borrowers, each Lender, Agent and each Fronting Lender hereby, to the fullest extent permitted
under applicable law, waive, release and agree not to xxx or counterclaim upon any such claim for
any special, consequential or punitive damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or
suspected to exist in their favor. As of the Closing Date, each Credit Party hereby waives and
releases Agent and each of the Lenders, and their respective directors, officers, employees,
attorneys, affiliates and subsidiaries, from any and all claims, offsets, defenses and
counterclaims of which any Credit Party is aware, such waiver and release being with full knowledge
and understanding of the circumstances and effect thereof and after having consulted legal counsel
with respect thereto.
Section 12.20. No Duty. All attorneys, accountants, appraisers, consultants and
other professional persons (including the firms or other entities on behalf of which any such
Person
127
may act) retained by Agent or any Lender with respect to the transactions contemplated by
the Loan Documents shall have the right to act exclusively in the interest of Agent or such Lender,
as the case may be, and shall have no duty of disclosure, duty of loyalty, duty of care, or other
duty or obligation of any type or nature whatsoever to Borrowers, any other Companies, or to any
other Person, with respect to any matters within the scope of such representation or related to
their activities in connection with such representation. Each Borrower agrees, on behalf of itself
and its Subsidiaries, not to assert any claim or counterclaim against any such persons with regard
to such matters, all such claims and counterclaims, now existing or hereafter arising, whether
known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseeable, being hereby waived, released and forever discharged.
Section 12.21. Legal Representation of Parties. The Loan Documents were negotiated
by the parties with the benefit of legal representation and any rule of construction or
interpretation otherwise requiring this Agreement or any other Loan Document to be construed or
interpreted against any party shall not apply to any construction or interpretation hereof or
thereof.
Section 12.22. Currency.
(a) Currency Equivalent Generally. For the purposes of making valuations or
computations under this Agreement (but not for the purposes of the preparation of any financial
statements delivered pursuant hereto), unless expressly provided otherwise, where a reference is
made to a dollar amount the amount is to be considered as the amount in Dollars and, therefor, each
other currency shall be converted into the Dollar Equivalent.
(b) Judgment Currency. If Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, or any other holder of the
Obligations (the “Applicable Creditor”) obtains a judgment or judgments against any Credit Party in
respect of any sum adjudged to be due to Agent or the Lenders hereunder or under the Notes (the
“Judgment Amount”) in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than the currency (the “Original
Currency”) in which such sum is stated to be due hereunder, the
obligations of such Credit Party in connection with such judgment shall be discharged only to the
extent that, on the Business Day following receipt by the Applicable Creditor of any sum adjudged
to be so due in the Judgment Currency, such Applicable Creditor may, in accordance with the normal
banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction, purchase the Original Currency with the Judgment
Currency; if the amount of Original Currency so purchased is less than the amount of Original
Currency that could have been purchased with the Judgment Amount on the date or dates the Judgment
Amount (excluding the portion of the Judgment Amount that has accrued as a result of the failure of
such Credit Party to pay the sum originally due hereunder when it was originally due and owing to
Agent or the Lenders hereunder) was originally due and owing to Agent or the Lenders hereunder (the
“Loss”), such Credit Party agrees as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment,
to indemnify Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, against such Loss. For purposes of
determining the equivalent in one currency of another currency as provided in this Section 12.22,
such amount shall include any premium and costs payable in connection with the conversion into or
from any currency. The obligations of Borrowers contained in this Section 12.22 shall survive the
termination of this Agreement and the payment of all other amounts owing hereunder.
128
Section 12.23. Waiver of Financial Covenant Defaults Existing Prior to the Closing
Date. Agent and the Lenders hereby waive any failure to comply by Borrowers with the financial
covenants under the Original Credit Agreement, as in effect prior to the Closing Date, for the
period ending June 30, 2009.
Section 12.24. Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction.
(a)
Governing Law. This Agreement, each of the Notes and any Related Writing shall be
governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
New York and the respective
rights and obligations of Borrowers, Agent, and the Lenders shall be governed by
New York law,
without regard to principles of conflicts of laws.
(b)
Submission to Jurisdiction. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably submits to the
non-exclusive jurisdiction of any
New York state or federal court sitting in New York County, New
York over any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Obligations or
any Related Writing, and each Borrower hereby irrevocably agrees that all claims in respect of such
action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York state or federal court. Each
Borrower, on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest
extent permitted by law, any objection it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue in any
action or proceeding in any such court as well as any right it may now or hereafter have to remove
such action or proceeding, once commenced, to another court on the grounds of FORUM NON CONVENIENS
or otherwise. Each Borrower agrees that a final, non-appealable judgment in any such action or
proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment
or in any other manner provided by law.
Section 12.25. DESIGNATED SENIOR INDEBTEDNESS. THE INDEBTEDNESS EVIDENCED BY THIS
AGREEMENT, EACH OF THE NOTES, EACH OF THE SECURITY DOCUMENTS AND EACH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT IS AND
SHALL AT ALL TIMES CONSTITUTE “DESIGNATED SENIOR INDEBTEDNESS” UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF THE
SUBORDINATED INDENTURE. THE INDEBTEDNESS EVIDENCED BY THE GUARANTIES OF PAYMENT SHALL AT ALL TIMES
CONSTITUTE “DESIGNATED GUARANTOR SENIOR INDEBTEDNESS” UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF THE SUBORDINATED
INDENTURE.

129
JURY TRIAL WAIVER. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT
PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING
DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR

Reference is made to the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of July 24,

“Credit Agreement”), among GIBRALTAR INDUSTRIES, INC., a Delaware corporation and GIBRALTAR STEEL
CORPORATION OF NEW YORK, a New York corporation (collectively, “Borrowers” and, individually, each
a “Borrower”), the lenders named on Schedule 1 thereto (together with their respective
successors and assigns, collectively, the “Lenders” and, individually, each a “Lender”), and

the Lenders (“Agent”), JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and BMO Capital Markets Financing, Inc., each a

Company, each a co-documentation agent. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined
herein shall have the meanings attributed to them in the Credit Agreement
(the “Assignor”) and (the “Assignee”) hereby agree as follows:
1. The Assignor hereby sells and assigns to the Assignee without recourse and without
representation or warranty (other than as expressly provided herein), and the Assignee hereby
purchases and assumes from the Assignor, that interest in and to all of the Assignor’s rights and
obligations under the Credit Agreement as of the date hereof that represents the percentage
interest specified in Item 4 of Annex I (the “Assigned Share”) of all of the Assignor’s outstanding
rights and obligations under the Credit Agreement indicated in Item 4 of Annex I, including,
without limitation, all rights and obligations with respect to the Assigned Share of the Assignor’s
Commitment, the Loans, the Letters of Credit (including drawn and unreimbursed amounts), and the
Notes (if any) held by the Assignor. After giving effect to such sale and assignment, the
Assignee’s Commitment will be as set forth in Item 4 of Annex I.
2. The Assignor (a) represents and warrants that it is duly authorized to enter into and
perform the terms of this Assignment and Acceptance Agreement (this “Assignment Agreement”), that
it is the legal and beneficial owner of the interest being assigned by it hereunder and that such
interest is free and clear of any liens or security interests; (b) makes no representation or
warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or
representations made in or in connection with the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents or
the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of the Credit
Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant
thereto; and (c) makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to
the financial condition of the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries or the performance or
observance by the Borrowers or any of the other Credit Parties of any of their obligations under
the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any other instrument or document furnished
pursuant thereto.

3. The Assignee (a) represents and warrants that it is duly authorized to enter into and
perform the terms of this Assignment Agreement; (b) confirms that it has received a copy of the
Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with copies of the financial statements
referred to therein and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make
its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Assignment Agreement; (c) agrees that it
will, independently and without reliance upon Agent, the Assignor or any other Lender and based on
such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own
credit decisions in taking or not taking action under the Credit Agreement; (d) appoints and
authorizes Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under the
Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to Agent by the terms thereof,
together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; (e) agrees that it will perform in
accordance with the terms all of the obligations that by the terms of the Credit Agreement are
required to be performed by it as a Lender; and (f) to the extent legally entitled to do so,
attaches the forms described in Section 12.10(e) of the Credit Agreement.
4. Following the execution of this Assignment Agreement by the Assignor and the Assignee, an
executed original hereof (together with all attachments) will be delivered to Agent. The effective
date of this Assignment Agreement shall be the date of execution hereof by the Assignor, the
Assignee and the consent hereof by Agent and the receipt by Agent of the administrative fee
referred to in Section 12.10(d) of the Credit Agreement, unless otherwise specified in Item 5 of
Annex I hereto (the “Settlement Date”).
5. Upon the delivery of a fully executed original hereof to Agent, as of the Settlement Date,
(a) the Assignee shall be a party to the Credit Agreement and, to the extent provided in this
Assignment Agreement, have the rights and obligations of a Lender thereunder and under the other
Loan Documents, and (b) the Assignor shall, to the extent provided in this Assignment Agreement,
relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under the Credit Agreement and the other
Loan Documents.
6. It is agreed that upon the effectiveness hereof, the Assignee shall be entitled to (a) all
interest on the Assigned Share of the Loans at the rates specified in Item 6 of Annex I, (b) all
facility fees (if applicable) on the Assigned Share of the Commitment at the rate specified in Item
7 of Annex I, and (c) all Letter of Credit fees (if applicable) on the Assignee’s participation in
all Letters of Credit at the rate specified in Item 8 of Annex I hereto, that, in each case, accrue
on and after the Settlement Date, such interest and, if applicable, facility fees and Letter of
Credit fees, to be paid by Agent, upon receipt thereof from the Borrowers, directly to the
Assignee. It is further agreed that all payments of principal made by the Borrowers on the
Assigned Share of the Loans that occur on and after the Settlement Date will be paid directly by
Agent to the Assignee. Upon the Settlement Date, the Assignee shall pay to the Assignor an amount
specified by the Assignor in writing that represents the Assigned Share of the principal amount of
the respective Loans made by the Assignor pursuant to the Credit Agreement that are outstanding on
the Settlement Date, net of any closing costs, and that are being assigned hereunder. The Assignor
and the Assignee shall make all appropriate adjustments in payments under the Credit Agreement for
periods prior to the Settlement Date directly between themselves on the Settlement Date.
