I. DEFINITIONS
1.1 GENERAL TERMS
For purposes of this Agreement, in addition to the definitions
above and elsewhere in this Agreement, the terms listed in Appendix A or Annex I
hereto shall have the meanings given such terms in Appendix A and Annex I,
respectively, which are incorporated herein and made a part hereof. All
capitalized terms used which are not specifically defined shall have meanings
provided in Article 9 of the UCC in effect on the date hereof to the extent the
same are used or defined therein. Unless otherwise specified herein or in
Appendix A or Annex I, any agreement or contract referred to herein or in
Appendix A or Annex I shall mean such agreement as modified, amended or
supplemented from time to time. Unless otherwise specified, as used in the Loan
Documents or in any certificate, report, instrument or other document made or
delivered pursuant to any of the Loan Documents, all accounting terms not
defined in Appendix A or elsewhere in this Agreement shall have the meanings
given to such terms in and shall be interpreted in accordance with GAAP.
II. ADVANCES, PAYMENT AND INTEREST
2.1 THE REVOLVING FACILITY
Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, each Lender
agrees to make available its Pro Rata Share of Advances to Borrower under the
Revolving Facility from time to time during the Revolving Facility Term;
provided, that (i) the Pro Rata Share of the Advances of any Lender shall not at
any time exceed its separate Commitment, and (ii) the aggregate amount of all
Advances at any one time outstanding under the Revolving Facility shall not
exceed the lesser of (A) the Facility Cap and (B) the Availability. The
obligations of Lenders hereunder shall be several and not joint up to the amount
of the Commitments. The Revolving Facility is a revolving credit facility, which
may be drawn, repaid and redrawn, from time to time as permitted under this
Agreement. Any determination as to whether there is Availability for Advances
shall be made by Agent in its sole discretion and is final and binding upon
Borrower. Unless otherwise permitted by Agent, each Advance shall be in an
amount of at least $1,000. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, Borrower
may request Advances under the Revolving Facility up to and including the value,
in Dollars, of (x) the greater of (A) Borrowing Base Availability, and (B) the
amount such that the Total Leverage Ratio, after giving effect to the requested
Advance, does not exceed the maximum Total Leverage Ratio then allowed under
Annex I for the immediately preceding Leverage Test Period, minus, (y) if
applicable, amounts reserved by Agent from time to time in its sole credit
judgment (such calculated amount being referred to herein as the
"AVAILABILITY"). Advances under the Revolving Facility automatically shall be
made for the payment of interest on the Revolving Notes and other Obligations on
the date when due to the extent available and as provided for herein.
2.2 THE REVOLVING NOTES; MATURITY
(a) All Advances under the Revolving Facility shall be
evidenced by the Revolving Notes, payable to the order of each appropriate
Lender in the aggregate principal amount of the Commitment of such Lender, duly
executed and delivered by Borrower. As of the Closing Date, Borrower has issued
(i) Second Amended and Restated Revolving Note A-1, in the original principal
amount of $4,240,000.00, payable to the order of CapitalSource, duly executed
3
and delivered by Borrower and dated the Closing Date (the "REVOLVING NOTE A-1"),
(ii) Second Amended and Restated Revolving Note A-2, in the original principal
amount of $10,760,000.00 payable to the order of CapitalSource, duly executed
and delivered by Borrower and dated the Closing Date (the "REVOLVING NOTE A-2"),
(iii) Second Amended and Restated Revolving Note B, in the original principal
amount of $20,000,000.00 payable to the order of CapitalSource, duly executed
and delivered by Borrower and dated the Closing Date (the "REVOLVING NOTE B")
and (iv) Amended and Restated Revolving Note C, in the original principal amount
of $15,000,000.00 payable to the order of CapitalSource, duly executed and
delivered by Borrower and dated the Closing Date (the "REVOLVING NOTE C" and
collectively with Revolving Note A-1, Revolving Note A-2, and Revolving Note B,
the "REVOLVING NOTES"). The Revolving Notes shall evidence the aggregate
Indebtedness of Borrower to Lenders resulting from Advances under the Revolving
Facility, from time to time. Each Lender hereby is authorized, but is not
obligated, to enter the amount of such Lender's Pro Rata Share of each Advance
under the Revolving Facility and the amount of each payment or prepayment of
principal or interest thereon in the appropriate spaces on the reverse of or on
an attachment to such Lender's Revolving Note(s). Agent will account to Borrower
monthly with a statement of Advances under the Revolving Facility and charges
and payments made pursuant to this Agreement, and in the absence of manifest
error, such accounting rendered by Agent shall be deemed final, binding and
conclusive unless Agent is notified by Borrower in writing to the contrary
within 15 calendar days of Receipt of each accounting, which notice shall be
deemed an objection only to items specifically objected to therein.
(b) All amounts outstanding under the Revolving Notes and
other Obligations under the Revolving Facility shall be due and payable in full,
if not earlier in accordance with this Agreement, on the earlier of (i) the
occurrence of an Event of Default if required pursuant hereto or Agent's demand
upon an Event of Default, and (ii) the last day of the Revolving Facility Term.
2.3 INTEREST
Interest on outstanding Advances under the Revolving Notes
shall be payable monthly in arrears on the first day of each calendar month at
an annual rate of Prime Rate plus 2%, provided, however, that, notwithstanding
any provision of any Loan Document, the interest on outstanding Advances under
the Revolving Notes shall be not less than 6.25%, in each case calculated on the
basis of a 360-day year and for the actual number of calendar days elapsed in
each interest calculation period. Interest accrued on each Advance under the
Revolving Notes shall be due and payable on the first day of each calendar
month, in accordance with the procedures provided for in Section 2.5 and Section
2.9, and continuing until the later of the expiration of the Revolving Facility
Term and the full performance and irrevocable payment in full in cash of the
Obligations and termination of this Agreement. Only for purposes of calculating
interest and fees, Advances under the Revolving Facility shall not be less than
$17,500,000.
2.4 FACILITY DISBURSEMENTS; REQUIREMENT TO DELIVER BORROWING
CERTIFICATE
So long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing, Borrower may give Agent irrevocable written notice requesting
an Advance under the Revolving
4
Facility by delivering to Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City Time)
at least two but not more than four Business Days before the proposed borrowing
date of such requested Advance (the "BORROWING DATE"), a completed Borrowing
Certificate and relevant supporting documentation satisfactory to Agent, which
shall (a) specify the proposed Borrowing Date of such Advance which shall be a
Business Day, (b) specify the principal amount of such requested Advance, (c)
certify the matters contained in Section 4.2, and (d) specify the amount of any
Medicare or Medicaid recoupments and/or recoupments of any third-party payor
being sought, requested or claimed, or, to Borrower's knowledge, threatened
against Borrower or Borrower's affiliates. Each time a request for an Advance is
made, and, in any event and regardless of whether an Advance is being requested,
on the second Business Day of each month during the Revolving Facility Term (and
more frequently if Agent shall so request) until the Obligations are
indefeasibly paid in cash in full and this Agreement is terminated, Borrower
shall deliver to Agent a Borrowing Certificate accompanied by such other
documentation as Agent shall reasonably request from a credit or security
perspective or otherwise. On each Borrowing Date, Borrower irrevocably
authorizes Agent to disburse the proceeds of the requested Advance to the
appropriate Borrower's account(s) as set forth on Schedule 2.4, in all cases for
credit to the appropriate Borrower (or to such other account as to which the
appropriate Borrower shall instruct Agent) via Federal funds wire transfer no
later than 4:00 p.m. New York City Time.
2.5 COLLECTIONS; REPAYMENT; BORROWING AVAILABILITY AND LOCKBOX
Each Borrower shall maintain one or more lockbox accounts
(individually and collectively, the "LOCKBOX ACCOUNT") with one or more banks
acceptable to Agent (each, a "LOCKBOX BANK"), and shall execute with each
Lockbox Bank one or more agreements acceptable to Agent (individually and
collectively, the "LOCKBOX AGREEMENT"), and such other agreements related
thereto as Agent may require. Each Borrower shall ensure that all collections of
its respective Accounts and all other cash payments received by such Borrower
are paid and delivered directly from Account Debtors and other Persons into the
appropriate Lockbox Account. The Lockbox Agreements shall provide that the
Lockbox Banks immediately will transfer all funds paid into the Lockbox Accounts
into a depository account or accounts maintained by Agent or an affiliate of
Agent at such bank as Agent may communicate to Borrower from time to time (the
"CONCENTRATION ACCOUNT"), except, with respect only to Accounts payable by
Medicaid/Medicare Account Debtors, the Lockbox Banks will immediately transfer
such funds to the appropriate Account as instructed by the applicable Borrower
to whom such Accounts are payable as permitted pursuant to the applicable
Lockbox Agreement. Notwithstanding and without limiting any other provision of
any Loan Document, Agent shall apply, on a daily basis, all funds transferred
into the Concentration Account pursuant to the Lockbox Agreement and this
Section 2.5 in such order and manner as determined by Agent. To the extent that
any Accounts collections of any Borrower or any other cash payments received by
any Borrower, are not sent directly to the appropriate Lockbox Account but are
received by any Borrower or any of their affiliates, such collections and
proceeds shall be held in trust for the benefit of Agent and Lenders and
immediately remitted (and in any event within two Business Days), in the form
received, to the appropriate Lockbox Account, and if a Default or Event of
Default exists, for immediate transfer to the Concentration Account (except for
Accounts payable by Medicaid/Medicare Account Debtors). Borrower acknowledges
and agrees that compliance with the terms of this Section 2.5 is an essential
term of this Agreement, and that, in addition to and notwithstanding any other
rights Agent may have hereunder, under any other
5
Loan Document, under applicable law or at equity, upon each and every failure by
any Borrower or any of their affiliates to comply with any such terms, Agent
shall be entitled to assess a non-compliance fee which shall operate to increase
the Applicable Rate by 2.0% per annum during any period of non-compliance,
whether or not a Default or an Event of Default occurs or is declared; provided,
that nothing shall prevent Agent from considering any failure to comply with the
terms of this Section 2.5 to be a Default or an Event of Default. All funds
transferred to the Concentration Account for application to the Obligations
under the Revolving Facility shall be forwarded to Borrower promptly thereafter,
or if a Default or Event of Default exists or a condition in Section 4.2 is not
then satisfied, such funds shall be applied to reduce the Obligations under the
Revolving Facility (as Agent shall determine in its sole discretion), but, for
purposes of calculating interest hereunder, all such funds shall be subject to a
four Business Day clearance period, whether or not the Obligations are paid. If
as the result of collections of Accounts and/or any other cash payments received
by any Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.5 a credit balance exists with
respect to the Concentration Account, such credit balance shall not accrue
interest in favor of a Borrower, but shall be available to the appropriate
Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If applicable, at any
time prior to the execution of all or any of the Lockbox Agreements and
operation of all or any of the Lockbox Accounts, each Borrower and its
affiliates shall direct all collections or proceeds it receives on Accounts or
from other Collateral to the accounts and in the manner specified by Agent in
its sole discretion.
2.6 TERM LOAN
(a) The Term Loan shall be evidenced by Term Notes,
payable to the order of each appropriate Lender in the aggregate principal
amount of the Commitment of the applicable Lender, duly executed and delivered
by Borrower. As of the Closing Date, Borrower has issued (i) Second Amended and
Restated Term Note A, in the original principal amount of $8,224,361.69 payable
to the order of CapitalSource, duly executed and delivered by Borrower and dated
the Closing Date (the "TERM NOTE A") (ii) Second Amended and Restated Term Note
B, in the original principal amount of $8,595,840.63 payable to the order of
CapitalSource, duly executed and delivered by Borrower and dated the Closing
Date (the "TERM NOTE B"), and (iii) Second Amended and Restated Term Note C, in
the original principal amount of $179,797.68 payable to the order of
CapitalSource, duly executed and delivered by Borrower and dated the Closing
Date (the "TERM NOTE C", and collectively with Term Note A and Term Note B, as
amended or restated, the "TERM NOTES"). Subject to the terms and conditions set
forth in this Agreement, each Lender agrees to loan to Borrower on the Closing
Date, the amount necessary to make the aggregate principal amount of the Term
Notes equal to $17,000,000, each in an amount not to exceed its Pro Rata Share,
as a Term Loan to be disbursed to the appropriate Borrower's account(s) as set
forth on Schedule 2.4. The Term Loan is not a revolving credit facility, and any
repayments of principal shall be applied to permanently reduce the Term Loan.
The Term Loan shall be evidenced by the Term Notes.
(b) On the Closing Date, Borrower has repaid the
principal, interest and fees due under the New Term Notes (as defined in the
Amended and Restated Loan Agreement).
6
2.7 INTEREST ON THE TERM NOTES
Interest on the outstanding balance of the Term Loan under the
Term Notes shall be payable monthly in arrears on the first day of each calendar
month at an annual rate of Prime Rate plus 4.5%; provided, however, that,
notwithstanding any other provision of any Loan Document, the interest on the
outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan under the Term Notes shall be not
less than 8.75%, in each case calculated on the basis of a 360-day year and for
the actual number of calendar days elapsed in each interest calculation period.
Interest accrued on the Term Loan under the Term Notes shall be due and payable
on the first day of each calendar month commencing August 1, 2003, and
continuing until the later of the expiration of the Term Notes Term and the full
performance and irrevocable payment in full in cash of the Obligations and
termination of this Agreement. Advances under the Revolving Facility shall be
made automatically for the payment of interest on the Term Loan and other
Obligations on the date when due to the extent available and as provided for
herein.
2.8 REPAYMENT OF TERM LOAN; MATURITY
Payment of principal (in addition to the interest payments in
Section 2.7) and all Obligations under the Term Loan shall be due and payable in
full, and the Term Notes shall mature, if not earlier in accordance with this
Agreement, on the earlier of (i) the occurrence of an Event of Default if
required pursuant hereto or Agent's demand upon an Event of Default, and (ii)
the last day of the Term Notes Term (such earlier date being the "TERM LOAN
MATURITY DATE").
2.9 MANNER OF PAYMENT
Any payments made by Borrower (other than payments
automatically paid through Advances under the Revolving Facility as provided
herein), shall be made only by wire transfer on the date when due, without
offset or counterclaim, in Dollars, in immediately available funds to such
account as may be indicated in writing by Agent to Borrower from time to time.
Any such payment received after 2:00 p.m. New York City Time on the date when
due shall be deemed received on the following Business Day. Whenever any payment
hereunder shall be stated to be due or shall become due and payable on a day
other than a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to, and such
payment shall be made on, the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension
of time in such case shall be included in the computation of payment of any
interest (at the interest rate then in effect during such extension) and/or
fees, as the case may be.
2.10 REPAYMENT OF EXCESS ADVANCES
Any balance of Advances under the Revolving Facility
outstanding at any time in excess of the lesser of the Facility Cap or the
Availability shall be immediately due and payable by Borrower without the
necessity of any demand, at the Payment Office, whether or not a Default or
Event of Default has occurred or is continuing and shall be paid in the manner
specified in Section 2.9.
7
2.11 OTHER MANDATORY PREPAYMENTS
In addition to and without limiting any provision of any Loan
Document:
(a) if a Change of Control occurs, on or prior to the
first Business Day following the date of such Change of Control, Borrower shall
prepay the Loans, including, without limitation, all outstanding Advances and
all other Obligations, in full in cash together with accrued interest thereon to
the date of prepayment and all other amounts owing to Agent and the Lenders
under the Loan Documents; and
(b) if any Borrower sells any of its assets or
properties, receives any property damage insurance award which is not used to
repair or replace the property covered thereby or incurs any Indebtedness,
except for Permitted Indebtedness, then it shall apply 100% of the proceeds
thereof to the prepayment of the Loans together with accrued interest thereon
and all other Obligations owing to Agent and the Lenders under the Loan
Documents, such payment to be applied at such time and in such manner and order
as Agent shall decide in its sole discretion.
2.12 PAYMENTS BY AGENT
Should any amount required to be paid under any Loan Document
be unpaid, such amount may be paid by Agent, for the account of Lenders, which
payment shall be deemed a request for an Advance under the Revolving Facility as
of the date such payment is due, and Borrower irrevocably authorizes
disbursement of any such funds to Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, by way of
direct payment of the relevant amount, interest or Obligations. No payment or
prepayment of any amount by Agent, Lenders or any other Person shall entitle any
Person to be subrogated to the rights of Agent and/or Lenders under any Loan
Document unless and until the Obligations have been fully performed and paid
irrevocably in cash and this Agreement has been terminated. Any sums expended by
Agent and/or Lenders as a result of Borrower's or any Guarantor's failure to
pay, perform or comply with any Loan Document or any of the Obligations may be
charged to Borrower's account as an Advance under the Revolving Facility and
added to the Obligations.
2.13 COLLATERAL; SECURITY INTEREST
To secure the payment and performance of the Obligations, each
Borrower has granted to Agent, for the benefit of itself and Lenders, a valid,
continuing perfected first priority security interest in and lien upon its
respective Collateral pursuant to the Security Documents to which each is a
party and PSI, PS Tennessee, PSI Hospitals, PS Oklahoma, Aeries, Texas
Hospitals, PS Coral Gables, Michigan, Transitional Care, East Carolina, H.C. and
HSA Hill Crest have pledged to Agent, for the benefit of itself and Lenders,
certain securities pursuant to Stock Pledge Agreements.
2.14 COLLATERAL ADMINISTRATION
(a) All Collateral (except Deposit Accounts) will at all times be kept by
Borrower at the locations set forth on Schedule 5.18B hereto and shall not,
without 30 calendar days prior written notice to Agent, be moved therefrom, and
in any case shall not be moved
8
outside the continental United States or, in the case of Ramsay Youth Services
Puerto Rico, Inc., a Puerto Rico corporation ("RY PUERTO RICO"), Puerto Rico.
(b) Borrower shall keep accurate and complete records of
its Accounts and all payments and collections thereon and shall submit such
records to Agent on such periodic bases as Agent may request. In addition, if
Accounts of Borrower in an aggregate face amount in excess of $10,000 become
ineligible because they fall within one of the specified categories of
ineligibility set forth in the definition of Eligible Receivables, Borrower
shall notify Agent of such occurrence on the first Business Day following such
occurrence and the Borrowing Base shall thereupon be adjusted to reflect such
occurrence. If requested by Agent, Borrower shall execute and deliver to Agent
formal written assignments of all of its Accounts weekly or daily as Agent may
request, including all Accounts created since the date of the last assignment,
together with copies of claims, invoices and/or other information related
thereto. To the extent that collections from such assigned accounts exceed the
amount of the Obligations, such excess amount shall not accrue interest in favor
of Borrower but shall be available to Borrower upon Borrower's written request.
(c) Whether or not an Event of Default has occurred, any
of the Agent's officers, employees, representatives or agents shall have the
right, at any time during normal business hours, in the name of Agent, any
designee of Agent or Borrower, to verify the validity, amount or any other
matter relating to any Accounts of Borrower. Borrower shall cooperate fully with
Agent in an effort to facilitate and promptly conclude such verification
process.
(d) To expedite collection, Borrower shall endeavor in
the first instance to make collection of its Accounts for Agent, for the account
of Lenders. Agent shall have the right at all times after the occurrence of an
Event of Default to notify (i) Account Debtors owing Accounts to Borrower, other
than Medicaid/Medicare Account Debtors, that their Accounts have been assigned
to Agent, for the benefit of itself and Lenders, and to collect such Accounts
directly in its own name and to charge collection costs and expenses, including
reasonable attorney's fees, to Borrower, and (ii) Medicaid/Medicare Account
Debtors that Borrower has waived any and all defenses and counterclaims it may
have or could interpose in any such action or procedure brought by Agent to
obtain a court order recognizing the assignment or security interest and lien of
Agent, for the benefit of itself and Lenders, in and to any Account or other
Collateral and that Agent is seeking or may seek to obtain a court order
recognizing the assignment or security interest and lien of Agent, for the
benefit of itself and Lenders, in and to all Accounts and other Collateral
payable by Medicaid/Medicare Account Debtors.
(e) As and when determined by Agent in its sole
discretion, Agent will perform the searches described in clauses (i) and (ii)
below against Borrower and Guarantors (the results of which are to be consistent
with Borrower's representations and warranties under this Agreement), all at
Borrower's expense: (i) UCC searches with the Secretary of State and local
filing offices of each jurisdiction where Borrower and/or any Guarantors (A) are
organized and (B) own or lease any real or personal property; and (ii) judgment,
federal tax lien and corporate and partnership tax lien searches, in each
jurisdiction searched under clause (i) above.
(f) Borrower (i) shall, during an Event of Default,
provide prompt written notice to its current bank to transfer all items,
collections and remittances to the Concentration
9
Account, (ii) shall provide prompt written notice to each Account Debtor (other
than Medicaid/Medicare Account Debtors) that Agent has been granted a lien and
security interest in, upon and to all Accounts applicable to such Account Debtor
and shall direct each Account Debtor to make payments to the appropriate Lockbox
Account, and Borrower hereby authorizes Agent and/or Lenders, upon any failure
to send such notices and directions within 10 calendar days after the date of
this Agreement (or 10 calendar days after the Person becomes an Account Debtor),
to send any and all similar notices and directions to such Account Debtors, and
(iii) shall do anything further that may be lawfully required by Agent and/or
any Lender to secure Agent, for the benefit of itself and Lenders, and
effectuate the intentions of the Loan Documents. At Agent's request, Borrower
shall immediately deliver to Agent all items for which Agent must receive
possession to obtain a perfected security interest and all notes, certificates,
and documents of title, chattel paper, warehouse receipts, instruments, and any
other similar instruments constituting Collateral.
2.15 POWER OF ATTORNEY
Agent is hereby irrevocably made, constituted and appointed
the true and lawful attorney for Borrower (without requiring any of them to act
as such) with full power of substitution to do the following: (a) endorse the
name of any Borrower upon any and all checks, drafts, money orders, and other
instruments for the payment of money that are payable to Borrower and constitute
collections on its or their Accounts; (b) execute and file in the name of
Borrower any financing statements, schedules, assignments, instruments,
documents, and statements that it is or they are obligated to give Agent under
any of the Loan Documents; and (c) do such other and further acts and deeds in
the name of Borrower that Agent may deem necessary or desirable to enforce any
Account or other Collateral or to perfect Agent's, for the benefit of itself and
Lenders, security interest or lien in any Collateral. In addition, if any
Borrower breaches its obligation hereunder to direct payments of Accounts or the
proceeds of any other Collateral to the appropriate Lockbox Account, Agent, as
the irrevocably made, constituted and appointed true and lawful attorney for
Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, may, by the signature or other act of any
of Agent's officers or authorized signatories (without requiring any of them to
do so), direct any federal, state or private payor or fiscal intermediary to pay
proceeds of Accounts or any other Collateral to the appropriate Lockbox Account.

Borrower shall not be required to pay an Early Termination Fee on the amount
that Borrower pays or reduces the outstanding balance of any Term Note as a
result of a HUD Financing obtained through an affiliate of CapitalSource.
3.5 COMPUTATION OF FEES; LAWFUL LIMITS
All fees hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of
360 days and for the actual number of days elapsed in each calculation period,
as applicable. In no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of
acceleration or otherwise, shall the interest and other charges paid or agreed
to be paid to Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, for the use, forbearance or
detention of money hereunder exceed the maximum rate permissible under
applicable law which a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final
determination, deem applicable hereto. If, due to any circumstance whatsoever,
fulfillment of any provision hereof, at the time performance of such provision
shall be due, shall exceed any such limit, then, the obligation to be so
fulfilled shall be reduced to such lawful limit, and, if Lenders shall have
received interest or any other charges of any kind which might be deemed to be
interest under applicable law in excess of the maximum lawful rate, then such
excess shall be applied first to any unpaid fees and charges hereunder, then to
unpaid principal balance owed by Borrower hereunder, and if the then remaining
excess interest is greater than the previously unpaid principal balance, Lenders
shall promptly refund such excess amount to Borrower and the provisions hereof
shall be deemed amended to provide for such permissible rate. The terms and
provisions of this Section 3.5 shall control to the extent any other provision
of any Loan Document is inconsistent herewith.
3.6 DEFAULT RATE OF INTEREST
Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of
Default, the Applicable Rate of interest in effect at such time with respect to
the Obligations shall be increased by 5.0% per annum (the "DEFAULT RATE").
3.7 ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY, CROSS-GUARANTY
AND CONTRIBUTION RIGHTS; GUARANTY ENFORCEMENT.
(a) Each Borrower acknowledges that it is jointly and
severally liable for all of the Obligations under the Loan Documents. Each
Borrower expressly understands, agrees and acknowledges that (i) Borrowers are
all entities affiliated by common ownership, (ii) each Borrower desires to have
the availability of one common credit facility instead of separate credit
facilities, (iii) each Borrower has requested that each Lender extend such a
common credit facility on the terms herein provided, (iv) each Lender will be
lending against, and relying on a lien upon, all of Borrowers' assets even
though the proceeds of any particular loan made hereunder may not be advanced
directly to a particular Borrower, (v) each Borrower will nonetheless benefit by
the making of all such loans by each Lender and the availability of a single
credit facility of a size greater than each could independently warrant, and
(vi) all of the representations, warranties, covenants, obligations, conditions,
agreements and other terms
12
contained in the Loan Documents shall be applicable to and shall be binding upon
each Borrower.
(b) Each Borrower hereby guarantees the prompt payment and
performance in full of all Obligations. Such guarantee constitutes a guarantee
of payment and not of collection. Each Borrower's obligations under this
Agreement shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be unconditional
irrespective of (i) the validity or enforceability, avoidance, or subordination
of the Obligations of any other Borrower or of any promissory note or other
document evidencing all or any part of the Obligations of any other Borrower,
(ii) the absence of any attempt to collect the Obligations from any other
Borrower, any Guarantor, if any, or any other security therefor, or the absence
of any other action to enforce the same, (iii) the waiver, consent, extension,
forbearance, or granting of any indulgence by the Agent and/or any Lender with
respect to any provision of any instrument evidencing the Obligations of any
other Borrower or Guarantor, if any, or any part thereof, or any other agreement
now or hereafter executed by any other Borrower or Guarantor, if any, and
delivered to the Agent and/or any Lender, (iv) the failure by the Agent and/or
any Lender to take any steps to perfect and maintain its security interest in,
or to preserve its rights to, any security or collateral for the Obligations of
any other Borrower or Guarantor, if any, (v) the Agent's and/or any Lender's
election, in any proceeding instituted under the United States Bankruptcy Code
(the "BANKRUPTCY CODE"), of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the
Bankruptcy Code, (vi) any borrowing or grant of a security interest by any other
Borrower, as debtor-in-possession under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code,
(vii) the disallowance of all or any portion of the Agent's and/or any Lender's
claim(s) for the repayment of the Obligations of any other Borrower under
Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code, or (viii) any other circumstances which
might constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor or of
any other Borrower (other than actual indefeasible payment in full in cash).
With respect to any Borrower's Obligations arising as a result of the joint and
several liability of the Borrowers hereunder with respect to Advances or other
extensions of credit made to any of the other Borrowers hereunder, such Borrower
waives, until the Obligations (other than indemnity obligations under the Loan
Documents not then due and payable for any events of claims that would give rise
thereto that are not then pending) shall have been indefeasibly paid in full and
this Agreement shall have been terminated, any right to enforce any right of
subrogation or any remedy which the Agent and/or any Lender now has or may
hereafter have against any other Borrower, any endorser or any Guarantor, if
any, of all or any part of the Obligations, and any benefit of, and any right to
participate in, any security or collateral given to the Agent and/or any Lender
to secure payment of the Obligations or any other liability of any Borrower to
the Agent and/or any Lender. During any Event of Default, the Agent may proceed
directly and at once, without notice, against any Borrower to collect and
recover the full amount, or any portion of the Obligations, without first
proceeding against any other Borrower or any other Person, or against any
security or collateral for the Obligations. Each Borrower consents and agrees
that the Agent shall be under no obligation to marshal any assets in favor of
any Borrower or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations.
(c) Each Borrower is obligated to repay the Obligations as
joint and several obligors under this Agreement. To the extent that any Borrower
shall, under this Agreement as a joint and several obligor, repay any of the
Obligations constituting Advances made to another Borrower hereunder or other
Obligations incurred directly and primarily by any other Borrower (an
"ACCOMMODATION PAYMENT"), then the Borrower making such Accommodation Payment
13
shall be entitled to contribution and indemnification from, and be reimbursed
by, each of the other Borrowers in an amount, for each of such other Borrowers,
equal to a fraction of such Accommodation Payment, the numerator of which
fraction is such other Borrower's Allocable Amount and the denominator of which
is the sum of the Allocable Amounts of all of the Borrowers. As of any date of
determination, the "ALLOCABLE AMOUNT" of each Borrower shall be equal to the
maximum amount of liability for Accommodation Payments which could be asserted
against such Borrower hereunder without (i) rendering such Borrower "insolvent"
within the meaning of Section 101 (31) of the Bankruptcy Code, Section 2 of the
Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act ("UFTA") or Section 2 of the Uniform Fraudulent
Conveyance Act ("UFCA"), (ii) leaving such Borrower with unreasonably small
capital or assets, within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code,
Section 4 of the UFTA, or Section 5 of the UFCA, or (iii) leaving such Borrower
unable to pay its debts as they become due within the meaning of Section 548 of
the Bankruptcy Code or Section 4 of the UFTA, or Section 5 of the UFCA. All
rights and claims of contribution, indemnification, and reimbursement under this
Section 3.7 shall be subordinate in right of payment to the prior payment in
full of the Obligations. The provisions of this Section 3.7 shall, to the extent
inconsistent with any provision in any Loan Document, supersede such
inconsistent provision.
(d) If (i) any court holds that the Borrowers are guarantors
and not jointly and severally liable or (ii) bankruptcy or reorganization
proceedings at any time are instituted by or against any Borrower under any
Debtor Relief Law, each Borrower hereby: (A) until indefeasible payment in full
of the Obligations, expressly and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent
possible, on behalf of such Borrower, any and all rights at law or in equity to
subrogation, to reimbursement, to exoneration, to contribution, to
indemnification, to set-off or to any other rights that could accrue to a surety
against a principal, to a guarantor against a maker or obligor, to an
accommodation party against the party accommodated, to a holder or transferee
against a maker, or to the holder of a claim against any Person, and which such
Borrower may have or hereafter acquire against any Person in connection with or
as a result of such Borrower's execution, delivery and/or performance of this
Agreement, or any other documents to which such Borrower is a party or
otherwise; (B) until indefeasible payment in full of the Obligations, expressly
and irrevocably waives any "claim" (as such term is defined in the Bankruptcy
Code) of any kind against any other Borrower, and further agrees that it shall
not have or assert any such rights against any Person (including any surety),
either directly or as an attempted set-off to any action commenced against such
Borrower by the Agent or a Lender or any other Person; and (C) acknowledges and
agrees (I) that this waiver is intended to benefit the Agent and the Lenders and
shall not limit or otherwise affect such Borrower's liability hereunder or the
enforceability of this Agreement, and (II) that the Agent and the Lenders and
their successors and assigns are intended beneficiaries of this waiver, and
agreements set forth in this Section 3.7 and their rights under this Section 3.7
shall survive payment in full of the Obligations.
(e) This Agreement shall in all respects be continuing,
absolute and unconditional, and shall remain in full force and effect with
respect to each Borrower until all Obligations created or existing before
receipt of such notice shall have been indefeasibly fully paid. No compromise,
settlement, release or discharge of, or indulgence with respect to, or failure,
neglect or omission to enforce or exercise any right against, any one or more
Borrowers shall release or discharge the other Borrowers.
14
(f) EACH BORROWER WAIVES THE FILING OF A CLAIM WITH A COURT IN
THE EVENT OF RECEIVERSHIP OR BANKRUPTCY OF ANY OTHER BORROWER, AND WAIVES EVERY
DEFENSE, CAUSE OF ACTION, COUNTERCLAIM OR SETOFF WHICH ANY BORROWER MAY NOW HAVE
OR HEREAFTER MAY HAVE TO ANY ACTION BY THE AGENT OR ANY LENDER IN ENFORCING THIS
AGREEMENT UNTIL THE OBLIGATIONS ARE INDEFEASIBLY PAID IN FULL AND LENDERS HAVE
NO COMMITMENT TO LEND HEREUNDER, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, EVERY DEFENSE,
COUNTERCLAIM OR SETOFF WHICH SUCH BORROWER MAY NOW HAVE, OR HEREAFTER MAY HAVE,
AGAINST ANY OTHER BORROWER OR ANY OTHER PARTY LIABLE TO THE AGENT OR ANY LENDER
IN ANY MANNER. AS FURTHER SECURITY, ANY AND ALL DEBTS AND LIABILITIES NOW OR
HEREAFTER ARISING AND OWING TO ANY BORROWER BY ANY OTHER BORROWER, OR TO ANY
OTHER PARTY LIABLE TO THE AGENT OR ANY LENDER, ARE HEREBY SUBORDINATED TO THE
AGENT'S AND ANY SUCH LENDER'S CLAIMS AND UPON THE OCCURRENCE OF AN EVENT OF
DEFAULT ARE ASSIGNED TO THE AGENT FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE LENDERS. EACH BORROWER
HEREBY AGREES THAT IT MAY BE JOINED AS A PARTY DEFENDANT IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING
(INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, A FORECLOSURE PROCEEDING) INSTITUTED BY THE
AGENT OR ANY LENDER AGAINST ANY OTHER BORROWER.
(g) Should a claim be made upon the Agent or any Lender at any
time for repayment of any amount rightfully received by the Agent or any Lender
in payment of the Obligations, or any part thereof, whether received from any
Borrower or received by the Agent or any Lender as the proceeds of Collateral,
by reason of: (1) any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative
body having jurisdiction over the Agent or any Lender or any of their property,
or (2) any settlement or compromise of any such claim effected by the Agent or
any Lender, in its sole discretion, with the claimant (including a Borrower),
each Borrower shall remain liable to the Agent or any such Lender for the amount
so repaid to the same extent as if such amount had never originally been
received by the Agent or any such Lender, notwithstanding any termination hereof
or the cancellation of any note or other instrument evidencing any of the
indebtedness. To the extent the Agent is required to repay any such amount, each
Lender shall, to the extent the Agent previously paid to such Lender a portion
of the amount which must be repaid, upon demand of the Agent, return to the
Agent the amount which had previously been paid by the Agent to such Lender.
(h) To the extent that any payment to, or realization by, the
Lender or the Agent on the Obligations exceeds the limitations of this Section
3.7 and is otherwise subject to avoidance and recovery in any such proceeding,
the amount subject to avoidance shall in all events be limited to the amount by
which such actual payment or realization exceeds such limitation, and this
Agreement as limited shall in all events remain in full force and effect and be
fully enforceable against such Borrower. This Section 3.7 is intended solely to
reserve the rights of the Lenders and the Agent hereunder against each Borrower,
in such proceeding to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Debtor Relief
Laws and neither the Borrowers, any guarantor of the Obligations nor any other
Person shall have any right, claim or defense under this Section 3.7 that would
not otherwise be available under applicable Debtor Relief Laws in such
proceeding.
15
3.8 WARRANTS
As additional consideration for the extensions of credit under
the Original Loan Agreement and as more fully described in the Warrant
Agreement, PSI has issued and delivered previously to CapitalSource Holdings LLC
on the Original Closing Date, the Warrant. The Warrant and number of securities
purchasable upon exercise of the Warrant shall be subject to adjustment and
shall be subject to various rights in favor of CapitalSource Holdings LLC as set
forth in the Warrant Agreement.
3.9 ALLOCATION OF PURCHASE PRICE
Under both GAAP consistently applied and the regulations of
the Internal Revenue Service, the issuance to Lenders of Term Notes A, B and C
and to CapitalSource Holdings LLC of the Warrant for an aggregate purchase price
equal to the aggregate principal amount of Term Notes A, B and C being so
purchased results in the creation of "original issue discount" on each Original
Term Note (which original issue discount may also be deemed to constitute the
value of any Warrant issued in connection with the issuance of such Term Notes
A, B and C), and such regulations require the determination of the value of any
warrant so delivered. Pursuant to GAAP consistently applied and applicable
Treasury Regulations, Borrower, Agent and Lenders agree to allocate $16,940,000
of the purchase price to Term Notes A, B and C and the remaining $60,000 of the
purchase price to the Warrant and that such allocation reflects the relative
fair market values of Term Notes A, B and C and the Warrant as of their issue
date. As a result, Term Notes A, B and C will be issued with original issue
discount of $60,000. Borrower, Agent and Lenders agree to recognize and adhere
to the determinations and allocations of original issue discount and valuation
of the Warrant set forth herein for all federal and state income tax purposes.
In the event of any proposed transfer of any of Term Note A, B or C by any
Lender, such Lender shall, prior to such transfer, xxxx such Term Note A, B or C
with a legend pertaining to the original issue discount in the form required by
Treasury Regulation Section 1.1275-3(b)(1).

Each Borrower is an entity duly organized, validly existing
and in good standing under the laws of its state of formation. Borrower (a) has
all requisite corporate power and authority to own its properties and assets and
to carry on its business as now being conducted and as contemplated in the Loan
Documents, (b) is duly qualified to do business in every jurisdiction in which
failure so to qualify could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect, and (c) has all requisite power and authority (i) to execute, deliver
and perform the Loan Documents to which it is a party, (ii) to borrow hereunder,
(iii) to consummate the transactions contemplated under the Loan Documents, and
(iv) to grant the Liens with regard to the Collateral pursuant to the Security

1940, as amended, or is controlled by such an "investment company."
5.2 LOAN DOCUMENTS
The execution, delivery and performance by Borrower of the
Loan Documents to which it is a party, and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated thereby, (a) have been duly authorized by all requisite action of

of or constitute an event of default, or an event, fact, condition or
circumstance which, with notice or passage of time, or both, would constitute or
result in a conflict, breach, default or event of default under, any indenture,
agreement or other instrument to which any Borrower is a party, or by which the
properties or assets of Borrower are bound, the effect of which could reasonably
be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; (d) except as set forth therein,
will not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien of any nature upon any
of the properties or assets of any Borrower, and
21
(e) except as set forth on Schedule 5.2, do not require the consent, approval or
authorization of, or filing, registration or qualification with, any

Borrower in accordance with its terms, subject to the effect of any applicable
bankruptcy, moratorium, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law

grace or cure period, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect, nor is there any event, fact, condition or circumstance which, with

available to Agent or such Lender copies of any and all documents, instruments,

6.13 RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL
(a) If at any time Borrower receives from a third party
an offer, term sheet or commitment or makes a proposal (including without
limitation any application filed in connection with a HUD Financing) accepted by
any Person (each, an "OFFER") which provides for any type of debt financing to
or for Borrower, Borrower shall notify Agent and Lenders of the Offer in writing
(including all material terms of the Offer) and Agent and Lenders shall have 15
Business Days after Receipt of such notice (the "OPTION PERIOD") to agree to
provide similar debt financing in the place of such Person upon substantially
the same terms and conditions (or terms more favorable to such Borrower) as set
forth in the Offer. Agent shall notify Borrower in writing of Agent's and
Lenders' acceptance of the Offer pursuant hereto (the "ACCEPTANCE
32
NOTICE"), in which case Borrower shall obtain such debt financing from Agent and
Lenders and shall not accept the Offer from such other Person. If no Acceptance
Notice has been Received from Agent within the Option Period, Borrower may
consummate the Offer with the other Person on the terms and conditions set forth
in the Offer (the "TRANSACTION"); provided, however, that none of foregoing or
any failure by Agent to issue an Acceptance Notice shall be construed as a
waiver of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of any of the Loan
Documents. If the Transaction is not consummated on the terms set forth in the
Offer or with the Person providing the Offer or during the 90 calendar day
period following the expiration of the Option Period, Borrower shall not be
permitted to consummate the Transaction without again complying with this
Section 6.13. The provisions of this Section 6.13 shall survive the payment in

Person under a program sponsored by the United States Department of Housing and
Urban Development (each application, a "HUD APPLICATION"), Borrower agrees that
CapitalSource Mortgage Finance LLC, an FHA-approved lender, shall have the
exclusive right to provide and arrange Borrower's financing obtained in
connection with such HUD Application.
6.14 TAXES AND OTHER CHARGES
All payments and reimbursements to Agent, for the benefit of
Lenders, made under any Loan Document shall be free and clear of and without
deduction for all taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, charges or
withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto of any nature whatsoever,
excluding taxes to the extent imposed on each Lender's net income. If Borrower
shall be required by law to deduct any such amounts from or in respect of any
sum payable under any Loan Document to Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, then
the sum payable to Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, shall be increased as may
be necessary so that, after making all required deductions, each Lender receives
an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been
made. Notwithstanding any other provision of any Loan Document, if at any time
after the Closing (a) any change in any existing law, regulation, treaty or
directive or in the interpretation or application thereof, (b) any new law,
regulation, treaty or directive enacted or any interpretation or application
thereof, or (c) compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether
or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority: (i) subjects
such Lender to any tax, levy, impost, deduction, assessment, charge or
withholding of any kind whatsoever with respect to any Loan Document, or changes
the basis of taxation of payments to Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, of any
amount payable thereunder (except for net income taxes, or franchise taxes
imposed in lieu of net income taxes, imposed generally by federal, state or
local taxing authorities with respect to interest or commitment fees or other
fees payable hereunder or changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income
of each Lender), or (ii) imposes on Lenders any other condition or increased
cost in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby or participations
therein; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to
Lenders of making or continuing any Loan hereunder or to reduce any amount
receivable hereunder, then, in any such case, Borrower shall promptly pay to
Agent, for
33
the benefit of itself and the Lenders, any additional amounts necessary to
compensate each Lender, on an after-tax basis, for such additional cost or
reduced amount as determined by such Lender. If any Lender becomes entitled to
claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 6.14 it shall promptly
notify Borrower of the event by reason of which such Lender has become so
entitled, and each such notice of additional amounts payable pursuant to this
Section 6.14 submitted by such Lender to Borrower shall, absent manifest error,
be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes. Without limiting or being
limited by any other provision of any Loan Document, Borrower at all times shall
retain and use a Person acceptable to Agent to process, manage and pay its
payroll taxes and shall cause to be delivered to Agent and each Lender within

the immediately preceding calendar quarter for Borrower (each individually and
collectively, "INTERNAL COST REPORT") setting forth for Borrower the precise
amount of cumulative cost-year to date accrued Medicare and Medicaid liability
for the Medicare and Medicaid cost-year in which such preceding quarter falls
based on and calculated as the difference between actual reported costs and the
interim reimbursement rate then being used for Medicare and Medicaid, as
applicable (such cumulative cost-year to date amounts being the "ACCRUED
LIABILITIES").
(b) At the expense of Borrower, Borrower agrees and
acknowledges that Agent shall have the right at any time within 90 Business Days

based on any such audit that the methods or procedures used by Borrower in
preparing any of the Internal Cost Reports or the amounts or figures contained

IX. RIGHTS AND REMEDIES AFTER DEFAULT
9.1 RIGHTS AND REMEDIES
(a) In addition to the acceleration provisions set forth
in Article VIII above, upon the occurrence and continuation of an Event of
Default, Agent shall have the right to (and at the request of Requisite Lenders,
shall) exercise any and all rights, options and remedies
42
provided for in any Loan Document, under the UCC or at law or in equity,
including, without limitation, the right to (i) apply any property of any
Borrower held by Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, to reduce the Obligations,
(ii) foreclose the Liens created under the Security Documents, (iii) realize
upon, take possession of and/or sell any Collateral or securities pledged (other
than Collateral consisting of Accounts owed or owing by Medicaid/Medicare
Account Debtors absent a court order or compliance with applicable law) with or
without judicial process, (iv) exercise all rights and powers with respect to
the Collateral as any Borrower as applicable, might exercise (other than with
respect to Collateral consisting of Accounts owed or owing by Medicaid/Medicare
Account Debtors absent a court order or compliance with applicable law), (v)
collect and send notices regarding the Collateral (other than with respect to
Collateral consisting of Accounts owed or owing by Medicaid/Medicare Account
Debtors absent a court order or compliance with applicable law), with or without
judicial process, (vi) by its own means or with judicial assistance, enter any
premises at which Collateral and/or pledged securities are located, or render
any of the foregoing unusable or dispose of the Collateral and/or pledged
securities on such premises without any liability for rent, storage, utilities,
or other sums, and no Borrower shall resist or interfere with such action, (vii)
at Borrower's expense, require that all or any part of the Collateral be
assembled and made available to Agent at any place designated by Agent, (viii)
reduce or otherwise change the Facility Cap and/or the Maximum Loan Amount,
and/or (ix) relinquish or abandon any Collateral or securities pledged or any
Lien thereon. Notwithstanding any provision of any Loan Document, Agent, in its
sole discretion, shall have the right, at any time that Borrower fails to do so,
and from time to time, without prior notice, to: (A) obtain insurance covering
any of the Collateral to the extent required hereunder; (B) pay for the
performance of any of Obligations; (C) discharge taxes or Liens on any of the
Collateral that are in violation of any Loan Document unless Borrower is in good
faith with due diligence by appropriate proceedings contesting those items; and
(D) pay for the maintenance and preservation of the Collateral. Such expenses
and advances shall be added to the Obligations until reimbursed to Agent and
shall be secured by the Collateral, and such payments by Agent and/or any Lender
shall not be construed as a waiver by Agent or Lenders of any Event of Default
or any other rights or remedies of Agent and Lenders.
(b) Borrower agrees that notice Received by it at least
ten calendar days before the time of any intended public sale, or the time after
which any private sale or other disposition of Collateral is to be made, shall
be deemed to be reasonable notice of such sale or other disposition. If
permitted by applicable law, any perishable Collateral which threatens to
speedily decline in value or which is sold on a recognized market may be sold
immediately by Agent without prior notice to Borrower. At any sale or
disposition of Collateral or securities pledged, Agent may (to the extent
permitted by applicable law) purchase all or any part thereof free from any
right of redemption by any Borrower which right is hereby waived and released.
9.2 RIGHTS AND REMEDIES NOT EXCLUSIVE
Agent and Lenders shall have the right in their sole
discretion to determine which rights, Liens and/or remedies Agent or Lenders may
at any time pursue, relinquish, subordinate or modify, and such determination
will not in any way modify or affect any of Agent's or Lenders' rights, Liens or
remedies under any Loan Document, applicable law or equity. The enumeration of
any rights and remedies in any Loan Document is not intended to be exhaustive,
and all rights and remedies of Agent and Lenders described in any Loan Document
are
43
cumulative and are not alternative to or exclusive of any other rights or
remedies which Agent or Lenders otherwise may have. The partial or complete
exercise of any right or remedy shall not preclude any other further exercise of
such or any other right or remedy.
X. WAIVERS AND JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS
10.1 WAIVERS
Except as expressly provided for herein, Borrower hereby
waives demand, presentment, protest, all defenses with respect to any and all
instruments and all notices and demands of any description, and the pleading of
any statute of limitations as a defense to any demand under any Loan Document.
Borrower hereby waives any and all defenses and counterclaims it may have or
could interpose in any action or procedure brought by Agent or Lenders to obtain
an order of court recognizing the assignment of, or Lien of Agent, for the
benefit of itself and Lenders, in and to, any Collateral, whether or not payable
by a Medicaid/Medicare Account Debtor.
10.2 DELAY; NO WAIVER OF DEFAULTS
No course of action or dealing, renewal, release or extension
of any provision of any Loan Document, or single or partial exercise of any such
provision, or delay, failure or omission on Agent's or Lenders' part in
enforcing any such provision shall affect the liability of any Borrower or
Guarantor or operate as a waiver of such provision or affect the liability of
any Borrower or Guarantor or preclude any other or further exercise of such
provision. No waiver by any party to any Loan Document of any one or more
defaults by any other party in the performance of any of the provisions of any
Loan Document shall operate or be construed as a waiver of any future default,
whether of a like or different nature, and each such waiver shall be limited
solely to the express terms and provisions of such waiver. Notwithstanding any
other provision of any Loan Document, by completing the Closing under this
Agreement and/or by making Advances or funding the Term Loan, neither Agent or
any Lender waives any breach of any representation or warranty of under any Loan
Document, and all of Agent's and Lenders' claims and rights resulting from any
such breach or misrepresentation are specifically reserved.
10.3 JURY WAIVER
EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT
TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING UNDER THE LOAN
DOCUMENTS OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE
PARTIES WITH RESPECT TO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED
THEREBY, WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER SOUNDING IN
CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE. EACH PARTY HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH
CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY, AND
THAT ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF
THIS SECTION WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENTS OF THE PARTIES
TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY.
44
10.4 COOPERATION IN DISCOVERY AND LITIGATION
In any litigation, arbitration or other dispute resolution
proceeding relating to any Loan Document, Borrower waives any and all defenses,
objections and counterclaims it may have or could interpose with respect to (a)
any of its directors, officers, members, managers, partners, employees or agents
being deemed to be employees or managing agents of Borrower for purposes of all
applicable law or court rules regarding the production of witnesses by notice
for testimony (whether in a deposition, at trial or otherwise), (b) Agent's or
any Lender's counsel examining any such individuals as if under
cross-examination and using any discovery deposition of any of them as if it
were an evidence deposition, and/or (c) using all commercially reasonable
efforts to produce in any such dispute resolution proceeding, at the time and in
the manner requested by Agent, all Persons, documents (whether in tangible,
electronic or other form) and/or other things under its control and relating to
the dispute.
10.5 AMENDMENT AND WAIVERS
(a) Except as otherwise provided herein, no amendment,
modification, termination, or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any
Loan Document, or consent to any departure by Borrower therefrom, shall in any
event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Requisite
Lenders and Agent; provided, that no amendment, modification, termination, or
waiver shall, unless in writing and signed by each Lender directly affected
thereby, do any of the following: (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender
(which action shall be deemed to directly affect all Lenders); (ii) reduce the
principal of, rate of interest on or fees payable with respect to any Loan;

date, of any installment of principal, interest, or fees payable with respect to

amount of the Loans, or of Lenders which shall be required for Lenders or any of
them to take any action hereunder (which action shall be deemed to directly
affect all Lenders); (v) except as otherwise permitted herein or in the other
Loan Documents, release any Guaranty or release any material portion of the
Collateral (which action shall be deemed to directly affect all Lenders)
(provided, that consent to such release shall not be required if such release is
made after and during the continuance of an Event of Default in connection with
the sale or disposition of the Collateral by Agent); (vi) amend, modify or waive
this Section 10.5 or the definitions of the terms used in this Section 10.5
insofar as the definitions affect the substance of this Section 10.5 (which

assignment or other transfer by Borrower or any other party (other than any

Document shall in any event be effective, unless in writing and signed by Agent,
in addition to Lenders required herein above to take such action.
(b) Each amendment, modification, termination or waiver
shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose
for which it was given. No amendment, modification, termination or waiver shall
be required for Agent to take additional Collateral pursuant to any Loan
Document.
45
(c) Any amendment, modification, termination, waiver or
consent effected in accordance with this Section 10.5 shall be binding upon each
Lender, and, if signed by Borrower, on Borrower.
XI. EFFECTIVE DATE AND TERMINATION
11.1 EFFECTIVENESS AND TERMINATION
Subject to each Lender's right to terminate and cease making
Loans upon or after any Event of Default, this Agreement shall continue in full
force and effect until the full performance and indefeasible payment in cash of
all Obligations, unless terminated sooner as provided in this Section 11.1.
Borrower may terminate this Agreement at any time upon not less than 30 calendar
days prior written notice to Agent and upon full performance and indefeasible
payment in full in cash of all Obligations on or prior to such 30th calendar day
after Receipt by Agent of such written notice. All of the Obligations shall be
immediately due and payable upon any such termination on the termination date
stated in any notice of termination (the "TERMINATION DATE"); provided, that,
notwithstanding any other provision of any Loan Document, the Termination Date
shall be effective no earlier than the first Business Day of the month following
the expiration of the 30 calendar days prior written notice period.
Notwithstanding any other provision of any Loan Document, no termination of this
Agreement shall affect any Lender's rights or any of the Obligations existing as
of the effective date of such termination, and the provisions of the Loan
Documents shall continue to be fully operative until the Obligations have been
fully performed and indefeasibly paid in cash in full. The Liens granted to
Agent, for the benefit of itself and Lenders, under the Security Documents and
the financing statements filed pursuant thereto and the rights and powers of
Agent and Lenders shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding the
fact that Borrower's borrowings hereunder may from time to time be in a zero or
credit position until all of the Obligations have been fully performed and
indefeasibly paid in full in cash. Notwithstanding anything contained in this
Agreement, Borrower may not voluntarily terminate the Revolving Facility during
the first six months of the Revolving Facility Term.
11.2 SURVIVAL
All obligations, covenants, agreements, representations,
warranties, waivers and indemnities made by Borrower in any Loan Document shall
survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, the Closing, the
making of the Loans and any termination of this Agreement until all Obligations
are fully performed and indefeasibly paid in full in cash. The obligations and
provisions of Sections 3.5, 3.6, 3.7, 6.13, 10.1, 10.3, 12.3, 12.4, 12.7 and
Article XI shall survive termination of the Loan Documents and any payment, in
full or in part, of the Obligations.
11.3 AGENT
(a) Appointment. Each Lender hereby designates and
appoints CapitalSource as the administrative agent and the collateral agent,
under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and each Lender hereby
irrevocably authorizes CapitalSource, as the administrative agent and the
collateral agent for such Lender, to take such action or to refrain from taking
such
46
action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly
delegated to the Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.
Agent agrees to act as such on the express conditions contained in this Section
11.3. The provisions of this Section 11.3 are solely for the benefit of Agent
and Lenders, and Borrower shall have no rights as a third-party beneficiary of
any of the provisions hereof. Agent may perform any of its duties hereunder, or
under the Loan Documents, by or through its agents or employees.
(b) Nature of Duties. In performing its functions and
duties under this Agreement, Agent is acting solely on behalf of Lenders and its
duties are administrative in nature and does not assume and shall not be deemed
to have assumed any obligation toward or relationship of agency or trust with or
for Lenders, other than as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan
Documents, or Borrower. Agent shall have no duties, obligations or
responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement or in the
other Loan Documents. Agent shall not have by reason of this Agreement a
fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender. Except for information,
notices, reports, and other documents expressly required to be furnished to
Lenders by the Agent hereunder or given to the Agent for the account of or with
copies for Lenders, each Lender shall make its own independent investigation of
the financial condition and affairs of Borrower in connection with the extension
of credit hereunder and shall make its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of
Borrower, and Agent shall have no duty or responsibility, either initially or on
a continuing basis, to provide any Lender with any credit or other information
with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the Closing Date
or at any time or times thereafter. If Agent seeks the consent or approval of
any Lenders to the taking or refraining from taking any action hereunder, then
Agent shall send prior written notice thereof to each Lender. Agent shall
promptly notify (in writing) each Lender any time that the applicable percentage
of Lenders have instructed Agent to act or refrain from acting pursuant hereto.
(c) Rights, Exculpation, Etc. Neither Agent nor any of
its officers, directors, managers, members, employees or agents shall be liable
to any Lender for any action lawfully taken or omitted by them hereunder or
under any of the other Loan Documents, or in connection herewith or therewith,
except that Agent shall be obligated on the terms set forth herein for
performance of its express duties and obligations hereunder, and except that
Agent shall be liable with respect to its or their own gross negligence or
willful misconduct. Agent shall not be liable for any apportionment or
distribution of payments made by it in good faith, and if any such apportionment
or distribution is subsequently determined to have been made in error, the sole
recourse of any Lender to whom payment was due but not made shall be to recover
from other Lenders any payment in excess of the amount to which they are
determined to be entitled (and such other Lenders hereby agree to return to such
Lender any such erroneous payments received by them). In performing its
functions and duties hereunder, Agent shall exercise the same care which it
would in dealing with loans for its own account. Agent shall not be responsible
to any Lender for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made
by Borrower herein or for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity,
enforceability, collectability, or sufficiency of this Agreement or any of the
other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby, or for the
financial condition of Borrower. Agent shall not be required to make any inquiry
concerning either the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions,
or conditions of
47
this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents or the financial condition of
Borrower, or the existence or possible existence of any Default or Event of
Default. Agent may at any time request instructions from Lenders with respect to
any actions or approvals which by the terms of this Agreement or of any of the
other Loan Documents Agent is permitted or required to take or to grant, and
Agent shall be absolutely entitled to refrain from taking any action or to
withhold any approval and shall not be under any liability whatsoever to any
Person for refraining from taking any action or withholding any approval under
any of the Loan Documents until it shall have received such instructions from
the applicable percentage of Lenders. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender
shall have any right of action whatsoever against Agent as a result of Agent
acting or refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of the other Loan
Documents in accordance with the instructions of the applicable percentage of
Lenders and notwithstanding the instructions of Lenders, Agent shall have no
obligation to take any action if it, in good faith believes that such action
exposes Agent to any personal liability unless Agent receives an indemnification
reasonably satisfactory to it from Lenders with respect to such action.
(d) Reliance. Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any
written notices, statements, certificates, orders or other documents or any
telephone message or other communication (including any writing, telex, telecopy
or telegram) believed by it in good faith to be genuine and correct and to have
been signed, sent or made by the proper Person, and with respect to all matters
pertaining to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents and its duties
hereunder or thereunder, upon advice of legal counsel, independent accountants,
and other experts selected by Agent in its sole discretion.
(e) Indemnification. Each Lender, severally and not
jointly, agrees to reimburse and indemnify Agent (to the extent not reimbursed
by Borrower or the Guarantors), ratably according to their respective Pro Rata
Share in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this
subsection of the total outstanding obligations (or, if indemnification is
sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have terminated and the
Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with their Pro Rata
Share immediately prior to such date of the total outstanding obligations), from
and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties,
actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses, advances, or disbursements of any
kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted
against Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any of
the other Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by Agent under this
Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents; provided, however, that no Lender
shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations,
losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses, advances
or disbursements resulting from Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct.
The obligations of Lenders under this Section 11.3(e) shall survive the payment
in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.
(f) CapitalSource Individually. With respect to the Loans
made by it, and the Notes issued to it, CapitalSource shall have and may
exercise the same rights and powers hereunder and under the other Loan Documents
and is subject to the same obligations and liabilities as and to the extent set
forth herein and the other Loan Documents as any other Lender. The terms
"Lenders" or "Requisite Lenders" or any similar terms shall, unless the context
clearly otherwise indicates, include CapitalSource in its individual capacity as
a Lender or one of the Requisite Lenders. CapitalSource may lend money to, and
generally engage in any kind of
48
banking, trust or other business with Borrower or any subsidiary of Borrower as
if it were not acting as Agent pursuant hereto.
(g) Successor Agent.
(i) Resignation. Agent may resign from the
performance of all its functions and duties hereunder at any time by giving at
least 30 days prior written notice to Borrower and Lenders. Such resignation
shall take effect upon the acceptance by a successor Agent of appointment
pursuant to clause (g)(ii) below or as otherwise provided below.
(ii) Appointment of Successor. Upon any such
notice of resignation pursuant to clause (g)(i) above, Requisite Lenders shall
appoint a successor Agent. If a successor Agent shall not have been so appointed
within said 30 day period, the retiring Agent, upon notice to Borrower, may, on
behalf of Lenders, then appoint a successor Agent who shall serve as Agent until
such time, as Requisite Lenders, appoint a successor Agent as provided above. If
no successor Agent has been appointed pursuant to the foregoing within said 30
day period, the resignation shall become effective and Requisite Lenders shall
thereafter perform all the duties of Agent hereunder, until such time, if any,
as Requisite Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided above.
(iii) Successor Agent. Upon the acceptance of any
appointment as Agent under the Loan Documents by a successor Agent, such
successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the
rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and, upon the
earlier of such acceptance or the effective date of the retiring Agent's
resignation, the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and
obligations under the Loan Documents, except that any indemnity rights or other
rights in favor of such retiring Agent shall continue. After any retiring
Agent's resignation as Agent under the Loan Documents, the provisions of this
Section 11.3 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be
taken by it while it was Agent under the Loan Documents.
(h) Collateral Matters.
(i) Collateral. Each Lender agrees that any
action taken by the Agent or the Requisite Lenders (or, where required by the
express terms of this Agreement, a greater proportion of Lenders) in accordance
with the provisions of this Agreement or of the other Loan Documents relating to
the Collateral, and the exercise by the Agent or the Requisite Lenders (or,
where so required, such greater proportion) of the powers set forth herein or
therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto,
shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders and the Agent. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent shall have the sole and
exclusive right and authority to (A) act as the disbursing and collecting agent
for Lenders with respect to all payments and collections arising in connection
herewith and with the Loan Documents in connection with the Collateral; (B)
execute and deliver each Loan Document relating to the Collateral and accept
delivery of each such agreement delivered by Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries; (C) act as collateral agent for Lenders for purposes of the
perfection of all security interests and Liens created by such agreements and
all other purposes stated therein; (D) manage, supervise and otherwise deal with
the Collateral; (E) take such action as is necessary or desirable to maintain
the perfection and priority of the security interests and
49
Liens created or purported to be created by the Loan Documents relating to the
Collateral, and (F) except as may be otherwise specifically restricted by the
terms hereof or of any other Loan Document, exercise all remedies given to such
Agent and Lenders with respect to the Collateral under the Loan Documents
relating thereto, applicable law or otherwise.
(ii) Release of Collateral. Lenders hereby
irrevocably authorize Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any
Lien granted to or held by Agent for the benefit of Lenders upon any property
covered by this Agreement or the Loan Documents (A) upon termination of the
Revolving Facility and payment and satisfaction in full of all Obligations; (B)
constituting property being sold or disposed of if Borrower certifies to Agent
that the sale or disposition is made in compliance with the provisions of this
Agreement (and Agent may rely in good faith conclusively on any such
certificate, without further inquiry); or (C) constituting property leased to
Borrower under a lease which has expired or been terminated in a transaction
permitted under this Agreement or is about to expire and which has not been, and
is not intended by Borrower to be, renewed or extended.
(iii) Confirmation of Authority; Execution of
Releases. Without in any manner limiting Agent's authority to act without any
specific or further authorization or consent by Lenders (as set forth in Section
11.3(h)(i) and (ii)), each Lender agrees to confirm in writing, upon request by
Borrower, the authority to release any property covered by this Agreement or the
Loan Documents conferred upon Agent under Section 11.3(h)(ii). So long as no
Event of Default is then continuing, upon receipt by Agent of confirmation from
the requisite percentage of Lenders, of its authority to release any particular
item or types of property covered by this Agreement or the Loan Documents, and
upon at least five Business Days prior written request by Borrower, Agent shall
(and is hereby irrevocably authorized by Lenders to) execute such documents as
may be necessary to evidence the release of the Liens granted to Agent for the
benefit of Lenders herein or pursuant hereto upon such Collateral; provided,
however, that (A) Agent shall not be required to execute any such document on
terms which, in Agent's opinion, would expose Agent to liability or create any
obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Liens
without recourse or warranty, and (B) such release shall not in any manner
discharge, affect or impair the Obligations or any Liens upon (or obligations of
Borrower or any subsidiary of Borrower, in respect of), all interests retained
by Borrower or any subsidiary of Borrower, including, without limitation, the
proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the
property covered by this Agreement or the Loan Documents.
(iv) Absence of Duty. Agent shall have no
obligation whatsoever to any Lender or any other Person to assure that the
property covered by this Agreement or the Loan Documents exists or is owned by
Borrower or is cared for, protected or insured or has been encumbered or that
the Liens granted to Agent on behalf of Lenders herein or pursuant hereto have
been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or
enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise at all or in
any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure, or fidelity, or to
continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or
available to Agent in this Section 11.3(h) or in any of the Loan Documents, it
being understood and agreed that in respect of the property covered by this
Agreement or the Loan Documents or any act, omission, or event related thereto,
Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its discretion, given
Agent's own interest in property covered by this Agreement or the Loan Documents
as one of Lenders and that Agent shall have no duty or
50
liability whatsoever to any of the other Lenders; provided, that Agent shall
exercise the same care which it would in dealing with loans for its own account.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Agent shall be liable with respect to its own
gross negligence or willful misconduct.
(i) Agency for Perfection. Each Lender hereby appoints
each other Lender as agent for the purpose of perfecting Lenders' security
interest in Collateral which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC in any
applicable jurisdiction, can be perfected only by possession. Should any Lender
(other than Agent) obtain possession of any such Collateral, such Lender shall
notify Agent thereof, and, promptly upon Agent's request therefor, shall deliver
such Collateral to Agent or in accordance with Agent's instructions.
(j) Exercise of Remedies. Except as set forth in Section
11.5, each Lender agrees that it will not have any right individually to enforce
or seek to enforce this Agreement or any Loan Document or to realize upon any
collateral security for the Loans, it being understood and agreed that such
rights and remedies may be exercised only by Agent.
11.4 CONSENTS
(a) In the event Agent requests the consent of a Lender
and does not receive a written denial thereof within five Business Days after
such Lender's receipt of such request, then such Lender will be deemed to have
given such consent so long as such request contained a notice stating that such
failure to respond within five Business Days would be deemed to be a consent by
such Lender.
(b) In the event Agent requests the consent of a Lender
in a situation where such Lender's consent would be required and such consent is
denied, then CapitalSource may, at its option, require such Lender to assign its
interest in the Loans to CapitalSource for a price equal to the then outstanding
principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest and fees due such
Lender (but no prepayment fee with respect thereto, it being agreed that any
prepayment fee is not applicable to such an assignment), which interest and fees
will be paid when collected from Borrower. In the event that CapitalSource
elects to require any Lender to assign its interest to CapitalSource pursuant to
this Section 11.4, CapitalSource will so notify such Lender in writing within 45
calendar days following such Lender's denial, and such Lender will assign its
interest to CapitalSource no later than five calendar days following Receipt of
such notice.
11.5 SET-OFF AND SHARING OF PAYMENTS
In addition to any rights and remedies now or hereafter
granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights,
upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each
Lender is hereby authorized by Borrower at any time or from time to time, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, with reasonably prompt subsequent notice to
Borrower or to any other Person (any prior or contemporaneous notice being
hereby expressly waived) to set-off and to appropriate and to apply any and all
(a) balances (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) held by
such Lender or such holder at any of its offices for the account of Borrower or
any of its Subsidiaries (regardless of whether such balances are then due to
Borrower or its Subsidiaries), and (b) other property at any time held or
51
owing by such Lender or such holder to or for the credit or for the account of
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, against and on account of any of the
Obligations which are not paid when due; except that no Lender or any such
holder shall exercise any such right without prior written notice to Agent;
provided, however, that the failure to give notice to Borrower or to any other
Person shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. Any Lender
which has exercised its right to set-off or otherwise has received any payment
on account of the Obligations shall, to the extent the amount of any such
set-off or payment exceeds its Pro Rata Share of payments obtained by all of the
Lenders on account of such Obligations, purchase for cash (and the other Lenders
or holders of Loans shall sell) participations in each such other Lender's or
holder's Pro Rata Share of Obligations as would be necessary to cause such
Lender to share such excess with each other Lenders or holders in accordance
with their respective Pro Rata Shares; provided, however, that if all or any
portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such
purchasing Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and
benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery. Borrower agrees, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, that (a) any Lender or holder may exercise its
right to set-off with respect to amounts in excess of its Pro Rata Share of the
Obligations and may sell participations in such excess to other Lenders and
holders, and (b) any Lender or holder so purchasing a participation in the Loans
made or other Obligations held by other Lenders or holders may exercise all
rights of set-off, bankers' lien, counterclaim or similar rights with respect to
such participation as fully as if such Lender or holder were a direct holder of
Loans and other Obligations in the amount of such participation.
11.6 DISBURSEMENT OF FUNDS
Agent may, on behalf of Lenders, disburse funds to Borrower
for Advances requested. Each Lender shall reimburse Agent on demand for its Pro
Rata Share of all funds disbursed on its behalf by Agent, or if Agent so
requests, each Lender will remit to Agent its Pro Rata Share of any Advance
before Agent disburses same to Borrower. If Agent elects to require that funds
be made available prior to disbursement to Borrower, Agent shall advise each
Lender by telephone, telex or telecopy of the amount of such Lender's Pro Rata
Share of such requested Advance no later than one Business Day prior to the
funding date applicable thereto, and each such Lender shall pay Agent such
Lender's Pro Rata Share of such requested Loan, in same day funds, by wire
transfer to Agent's account not later than 3:00 p.m. (Eastern Time). If any
Lender fails to pay the amount of its Pro Rata Share forthwith upon Agent's
demand, Agent shall promptly notify Borrower, and Borrower shall immediately
repay such amount to Agent. Any repayment required pursuant to this Section 11.6
shall be without premium or penalty. Nothing in this Section 11.6 or elsewhere
in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, including without limitation the
provisions of Section 11.7, shall be deemed to require Agent to advance funds on
behalf of any Lender or to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its
commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that Agent or Borrower may have
against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.
52
11.7 SETTLEMENTS; PAYMENTS AND INFORMATION
(a) Advances and Payments; Term Loan Payments; Interest
and Fee Payments.
(i) The amount outstanding pursuant to Advances
may fluctuate from day to day through Agent's disbursement of funds to, and
receipt of funds from, Borrower. In order to minimize the frequency of transfers
of funds between Agent and each Lender notwithstanding terms to the contrary set
forth in Section 11.6, Advances and repayments may be settled according to the
procedures described in Sections 11.7(a)(ii) and 11.7(a)(iii) of this Agreement.
Payments of principal, interest and fees in respect of the Term Loan will be
settled, in accordance with each Lender's Pro Rata Share on the first Business
Day after such payments are received. Notwithstanding these procedures, each
Lender's obligation to fund its Pro Rata Share of any Advances made by Agent to
Borrower will commence on the date such Advances are made by Agent. Such
payments will be made by such Lender without set-off, counterclaim or reduction
of any kind.
(ii) Once each week, or more frequently
(including daily), if Agent so elects (each such day being a "SETTLEMENT DATE"),
Agent will advise each Lender by 1 p.m. (Eastern Time) by telephone, telex, or
telecopy of the amount of each such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the outstanding
Advances. In the event payments are necessary to adjust the amount of such
Lender's share of the Advances to such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Advances,
the party from which such payment is due will pay the other, in same day funds,
by wire transfer to the other's account not later than 3:00 p.m. (Eastern Time)
on the Business Day following the Settlement Date.
(iii) On the first Business Day of each month
("INTEREST SETTLEMENT DATE"), Agent will advise each Lender by telephone,
telefax or telecopy of the amount of interest and fees charged to and collected
from Borrower for the proceeding month in respect of the Advances. Provided that
such Lender has made all payments required to be made by it under this
Agreement, Agent will pay to such Lender, by wire transfer to such Lender's
account (as specified by such Lender on Schedule 1 of this Agreement as amended
by such Lender from time to time after the date hereof pursuant to the notice
provisions contained herein or in the applicable Lender Addition Agreement) not
later than 3 p.m. (Eastern Time) on the next Business Day following the Interest
Settlement Date such Lender's share of such interest and fees.
(b) Availability of Lenders' Pro Rata Share.
(i) Unless Agent has been notified by a Lender
prior to any proposed funding date of such Lender's intention not to fund its
Pro Rata Share of the Advance amount requested by Borrower, Agent may assume
that such Lender will make such amount available to Agent on the proposed
funding date or the Business Day following the next Settlement Date, as
applicable. If such amount is not, in fact, made available to Agent by such
Lender when due, Agent will be entitled to recover such amount on demand from
such Lender without set-off, counterclaim, or deduction of any kind.
(ii) Nothing contained in this Section 11.7(b)
will be deemed to relieve a Lender of its obligation to fulfill its commitments
or to prejudice any rights Agent or Borrower may have against such Lender as a
result of any default by such Lender under this Agreement.
53
(c) Return of Payments.
(i) If Agent pays an amount to a Lender under
this Agreement in the belief or expectation that a related payment has been or
will be received by Agent from Borrower and such related payment is not received
by Agent, then Agent will be entitled to recover such amount from such Lender
without set-off, counterclaim or deduction of any kind.
(ii) If Agent determines at any time that any
amount received by Agent under this Agreement must be returned to Borrower or
paid to any other person pursuant to any solvency law or otherwise, then,
notwithstanding any other term or condition of this Agreement, Agent will not be
required to distribute any portion thereof to any Lender. In addition, each
Lender will repay to Agent on demand any portion of such amount that Agent has
distributed to such Lender, together with interest at such rate, if any, as
Agent is required to pay to Borrower or such other Person, without set-off,
counterclaim or deduction of any kind.
11.8 DISSEMINATION OF INFORMATION
The Agent will distribute promptly to each Lender copies of
all notices, schedules, reports, projections, financial statements, agreements
and other material and other information, including, but not limited to,
financial and reporting information received from Borrower or its Subsidiaries
or generated by a third party (and excluding only internal information generated
by CapitalSource for its own use as a Lender), as provided for in this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents as received by the Agent. The Agent shall promptly
give notice to Lenders of the receipt or sending of any notice, schedule,
report, projection, financial statement or other document or information
pursuant to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents and shall promptly
forward a copy thereof to each Lender. Agent shall request information from
Borrower or its Subsidiaries as Lenders may request from time to time. Agent
shall not be liable to Lenders for any failure to comply with its obligations
under this Section 11.8, except to the extent that such failure is attributable
to Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct.
XII. MISCELLANEOUS
12.1 GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION; SERVICE OF PROCESS; VENUE
The Loan Documents shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the internal laws of the State of Maryland without giving effect
to its choice of law provisions. Any judicial proceeding against Borrower with
respect to the Obligations, any Loan Document or any related agreement may be
brought in any federal or state court of competent jurisdiction located in the
State of Maryland. By execution and delivery of each Loan Document to which it
is a party, Borrower (i) accepts the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the aforesaid
courts and irrevocably agrees to be bound by any judgment rendered thereby, (ii)
waives personal service of process, (iii) agrees that service of process upon it
may be made by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, pursuant
to Section 12.5 hereof, and (iv) waives any objection to jurisdiction and venue
of any action instituted hereunder and agrees not to assert any defense based on
lack of jurisdiction, venue or convenience. Nothing shall affect the right of
Agent or any Lender to serve process in any manner permitted by law or shall
limit the right of Agent or any Lender to bring proceedings against Borrower in
the courts of any other jurisdiction having jurisdiction. Any judicial
proceedings against Agent or any Lender involving, directly or indirectly, the
54
Obligations, any Loan Document or any related agreement shall be brought only in
a federal or state court located in the State of Maryland. All parties
acknowledge that they participated in the negotiation and drafting of this
Agreement and that, accordingly, no party shall move or petition a court
construing this Agreement to construe it more stringently against one party than
against any other.
12.2 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS; ASSIGNMENTS AND PARTICIPATIONS
(a) Each Lender may at any time assign all or a portion
of its rights and delegate all or a portion of its obligations under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all its rights and obligations
with respect to the Loans) to one or more Persons (a "TRANSFEREE"); provided,
that such Transferee and such assigning Lender shall execute and deliver to
Agent for acceptance and recording in the Register, a Lender Addition Agreement,
substantially in the form of Exhibit C. Upon such execution, delivery,
acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date determined pursuant
to such Lender Addition Agreement, (i) the Transferee thereunder shall be a
party hereto and, to the extent provided in such Lender Addition Agreement, have
the same rights, benefits and obligations as it would if it were a Lender
hereunder, (ii) the assigning Lender shall be relieved of its obligations
hereunder with respect to its Commitment or assigned portion thereof, as the
case may be, to the extent that such obligations shall have been expressly
assumed by the Transferee pursuant to such Lender Addition Agreement (and, in
the case of a Lender Addition Agreement covering all or the remaining portion of
an assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such
assigning Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall nevertheless
continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 12.7). Borrower hereby
acknowledges and agrees that any assignment will give rise to a direct
obligation of Borrower to the Transferee and that the Transferee shall be
considered to be a "Lender" hereunder. Borrower may not sell, assign or transfer
any interest in this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, or any of the
Obligations, or any portion thereof, including Borrower's rights, title,
interests, remedies, powers, and duties hereunder or thereunder.
(b) Each Lender may at any time sell participations in
all or any part of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents (including all its rights and obligations with respect to the
Loans) to one or more Persons (a "PARTICIPANT"). In the event of any such sale
by a Lender of a participation to a Participant, such Lender's obligations under
this Agreement to the other parties to this Agreement shall remain unchanged,
such Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance thereof, such
Lender shall remain the holder of any such Loan (and any Note evidencing such
Loan) for all purposes under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the
Borrower and the Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such
Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Any agreement pursuant to which any
Lender shall sell any such participation shall provide that such Lender shall
retain the sole right and responsibility to exercise such Lender's rights and
enforce each of the Borrower's obligations hereunder, including the right to
consent to any amendment, supplement, modification or waiver of any provision of
this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents; provided, that such
participation agreement may provide that such Lender will not agree, without the
consent of the Participant, to any amendment, supplement, modification or waiver
of: (i) any
55
reduction in the principal amount, interest rate or fees payable with respect to
any Loan in which such holder participates; (ii) any extension of the
termination date of this Agreement or the date fixed for any payment of
principal, interest or fees payable with respect to any Loan in which such
holder participates; and (iii) any release of all or substantially all of the
Collateral (other than in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the
Loan Documents). Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Participant
under each participation shall, solely for the purposes of Sections 11.5 and
12.4 of this Agreement be considered to be a "Lender" hereunder.
(c) The Agent, on behalf of the Borrower, shall maintain
at its address referred to in Section 12.5 a copy of each Lender Addition
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 the principal
amount of the Loans owing to, and the Notes evidencing such Loans owned by, each
Lender from time to time. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the
contrary, each of the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders shall treat each
Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of the Loan, the
Notes and the Commitment recorded therein for all purposes of this Agreement.
The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender at
any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the
contrary, no assignment under subsection 12.2(a) of any rights or obligations
under or in respect of the Loans or the Notes evidencing such Loans shall be
effective unless and until the Agent shall have recorded the assignment pursuant
to subsection 12.2(c). Upon its receipt of a Lender Addition Agreement executed
by an assigning Lender and a Transferee, the Agent shall (i) promptly accept
such Lender Addition Agreement and (ii) on the effective date determined
pursuant thereto record the information contained therein in the Register and
give prompt notice of such acceptance and recordation to the Lenders and the
Borrower. On or prior to such effective date, the assigning Lender shall
surrender any outstanding Notes held by it all or a portion of which are being
assigned, and the Borrower, at its own expense, shall, upon the request of the
Agent by the assigning Lender or the Transferee, as applicable, execute and
deliver to the Agent new Notes to reflect the interest held by the assigning
Lender and its Transferee.
(e) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 12.2 no
Lender shall, as between Borrower and that Lender, be relieved of any of its
obligations hereunder as a result of any sale, assignment, transfer or
negotiation of, or granting of participation in, all or any part of the Loans or
other Obligations owed to such Lender. Each Lender may furnish any information
concerning Borrower and its Subsidiaries in the possession of that Lender from
time to time to assignees, Transferees and Participants (including prospective
assignees, Transferees and Participants); provided, that the Persons obtaining
such information agrees to maintain the confidentiality of such information to
the extent required by Section 12.10.
(f) Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this
Agreement, any Lender may at any time create a security interest in all or any
portion of its rights under this Agreement (including, without limitation, the
Loans owing to it and the Notes held by it and the other Loan Documents and
Collateral).
56
(g) Borrower agrees to use its commercially reasonable
best efforts to assist any Lender in assigning or selling participations in all
or any part of any Loans made by such Lender to another Person identified by
such Lender.
(h) Notwithstanding anything in the Loan Documents to the
contrary, (i) CapitalSource and its affiliates shall not be required to execute
and deliver a Lender Addition Agreement in connection with any transaction
involving its affiliates, financing or funding sources or lenders, (ii) no
lender to or financing or funding source of CapitalSource or its affiliates
shall be considered a Transferee and (iii) there shall be no limitation or
restriction on (A) CapitalSource's ability to assign or otherwise transfer any
Loan Document or Obligation to any such affiliate, financing source or lender,
or (B) any such affiliate's, financing source's or lender's ability to assign or
otherwise transfer any Loan Document or Obligation; provided, however,
CapitalSource shall continue to be liable as a "Lender" under the Loan Documents
unless such affiliate or lender executes a Lender Addition Agreement and thereby
becomes a "Lender," in which case such lender shall be required to comply with
the other provisions of this Section 12.2.
(i) The Loan Documents shall inure to the benefit of each
Lender, Agent, Transferees, Participants (to the extent expressly provided
therein only) and all future holders of any Note, the Obligations and/or any of
the Collateral, and each of their respective successors and assigns. Each Loan
Document shall be binding upon the Persons that are parties thereto and their
respective successors and assigns. Except as otherwise permitted herein, no
Person may assign, delegate or transfer any Loan Document or any of its rights
or obligations thereunder without the prior written consent of Agent. No rights
are intended to be created under any Loan Document for the benefit of any third
party donee, creditor or incidental beneficiary of any Borrower or any
Guarantor. Nothing contained in any Loan Document shall be construed as a
delegation to Agent or any Lender of any other Person's duty of performance.
BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT AGENT OR ANY LENDER AT ANY TIME AND FROM
TIME TO TIME MAY (I) DIVIDE AND REISSUE (WITHOUT SUBSTANTIVE CHANGES OTHER THAN
THOSE RESULTING FROM SUCH DIVISION) THE NOTES, AND/OR (II) PURSUANT TO SECTION
12.2, SELL, ASSIGN OR GRANT PARTICIPATING INTERESTS IN OR TRANSFER ALL OR ANY
PART OF ITS RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS UNDER ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, NOTE, THE OBLIGATIONS
AND/OR THE COLLATERAL TO OTHER PERSONS, IN EACH CASE ON THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS
PROVIDED HEREIN. Each Transferee and Participant shall have all of the rights
and benefits with respect to the Obligations, Notes, Collateral and/or Loan
Documents held by it as fully as if the original holder thereof; provided, that,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document, no Borrower shall
be obligated to pay under this Agreement to any Transferee or Participant any
sum in excess of the sum which it would have been obligated to pay to Lenders
had such participation not been effected. Notwithstanding any other provision of
any Loan Document, Agent and Lenders may disclose to any Transferee or
Participant all information, reports, financial statements, certificates and
documents obtained under any provision of any Loan Document; provided, that
Transferees and Participants shall be subject to the confidentiality provisions
contained herein that are applicable to Agent and Lenders.
57
12.3 APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS
To the extent that any payment made or received with respect
to the Obligations is subsequently invalidated, determined to be fraudulent or
preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, debtor in
possession, receiver, custodian or any other Person under any Debtor Relief Law,
common law or equitable cause or any other law, then the Obligations intended to
be satisfied by such payment shall be revived and shall continue as if such
payment had not been received by Agent or any Lender. Any payments with respect
to the Obligations received shall be credited and applied in such manner and
order as Agent shall decide in its sole discretion.
12.4 INDEMNITY
Each Borrower jointly and severally shall indemnify Agent and
each Lender, their affiliates and their respective managers, members, officers,
employees, affiliates, agents, representatives, successors, assigns, accountants
and attorneys (collectively, the "INDEMNIFIED PERSONS") from and against any and
all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments,
suits, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever
(including, without limitation, reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and
in-house documentation and diligence fees and legal expenses) which may be
imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnified Person with respect
to or arising out of, or in any litigation, proceeding or investigation
instituted or conducted by any Person with respect to any aspect of, or any
transaction contemplated by or referred to in, or any matter related to, any
Loan Document or any agreement, document or transaction contemplated thereby,
whether or not such Indemnified Person is a party thereto, except to the extent
that any of the foregoing arises out of the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of such Indemnified Person. If any Indemnified Person uses in-house
counsel for any purpose for which any Borrower is responsible to pay or
indemnify, each Borrower expressly agrees that its indemnification obligations
include reasonable charges for such work commensurate with the fees that would
otherwise be charged by outside legal counsel selected by such Indemnified
Person in its sole discretion for the work performed. Agent agrees to give
Borrower reasonable notice of any event of which Agent becomes aware for which
indemnification may be required under this Section 12.4, and Agent may elect
(but is not obligated) to direct the defense thereof; provided, that the
selection of counsel shall be subject to Borrower's consent, which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Any Indemnified Person may, in its
reasonable discretion, take such actions as it deems necessary and appropriate
to investigate, defend or settle any event or take other remedial or corrective
actions with respect thereto as may be necessary for the protection of such
Indemnified Person or the Collateral. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any
insurer agrees to undertake the defense of an event (an "INSURED EVENT"), Agent
agrees not to exercise its right to select counsel to defend the event if that
would cause any Borrower's insurer to deny coverage; provided, however, that
Agent reserves the right to retain counsel to represent any Indemnified Person
with respect to an Insured Event at its sole cost and expense. To the extent
that Agent or any Lender obtains recovery from a third party other than an
Indemnified Person of any of the amounts that any Borrower has paid to Agent or
any Lender pursuant to the indemnity set forth in this Section 12.4, then Agent
and/or Lender shall promptly pay to such Borrower the amount of such recovery.
58
12.5 NOTICE
Any notice or request under any Loan Document shall be given
to any party to this Agreement at such party's address set forth beneath its
signature on the signature page to this Agreement, or at such other address as
such party may hereafter specify in a notice given in the manner required under
this Section 12.5. Any notice or request hereunder shall be given only by, and
shall be deemed to have been received upon (each, a "RECEIPT"): (i) registered
or certified mail, return receipt requested, on the date on which such received
as indicated in such return receipt, (ii) delivery by a nationally recognized
overnight courier, one Business Day after deposit with such courier, or (iii)
facsimile or electronic transmission, in each case upon telephone or further
electronic communication from the recipient acknowledging receipt (whether
automatic or manual from recipient), as applicable.
12.6 SEVERABILITY; CAPTIONS; COUNTERPARTS; FACSIMILE SIGNATURES
If any provision of any Loan Document is adjudicated to be
invalid under applicable laws or regulations, such provision shall be
inapplicable to the extent of such invalidity without affecting the validity or
enforceability of the remainder of the Loan Documents which shall be given
effect so far as possible. The captions in the Loan Documents are intended for
convenience and reference only and shall not affect the meaning or
interpretation of the Loan Documents. The Loan Documents may be executed in one
or more counterparts (which taken together, as applicable, shall constitute one
and the same instrument) and by facsimile transmission, which facsimile
signatures shall be considered original executed counterparts. Each party to
this Agreement agrees that it will be bound by its own facsimile signature and
that it accepts the facsimile signature of each other party.
12.7 EXPENSES
Borrower shall pay, whether or not the Closing occurs, all
costs and expenses incurred by Agent, Lenders and/or their affiliates,
including, without limitation, documentation and diligence fees and expenses,
all search, audit, appraisal, recording, professional and filing fees and
expenses and all other out-of-pocket charges and expenses (including, without
limitation, UCC and judgment and tax lien searches and UCC filings and fees for
post-Closing UCC and judgment and tax lien searches and wire transfer fees and
audit expenses), and reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses, (i) in any effort
to enforce, protect or collect payment of any Obligation or to enforce any Loan
Document or any related agreement, document or instrument, (ii) in connection
with entering into, negotiating, preparing, reviewing and executing the Loan
Documents and/or any related agreements, documents or instruments, (iii) arising
in any way out of administration of the Obligations, (iv) in connection with
instituting, maintaining, preserving, enforcing and/or foreclosing on Agent's,
for the benefit of itself and Lenders, Liens in any of the Collateral or
securities pledged under the Loan Documents, whether through judicial
proceedings or otherwise, (v) in defending or prosecuting any actions, claims or
proceedings arising out of or relating to Agent's and Lenders' transactions with
Borrower, (vi) in seeking, obtaining or receiving any advice with respect to its
rights and obligations under any Loan Document and any related agreement,
document or instrument, and/or (vii) in connection with any modification,
restatement, supplement, amendment, waiver or extension of any Loan Document
and/or any related agreement, document or instrument. All of the foregoing shall
be
59
charged to Borrower's account and shall be part of the Obligations. If Agent,
any Lender or any of their affiliates uses in-house counsel for any purpose
under any Loan Document for which Borrower is responsible to pay or indemnify,
Borrower expressly agrees that its Obligations include reasonable charges for
such work commensurate with the fees that would otherwise be charged by outside
legal counsel selected by Agent, such Lender or such affiliate in its sole
discretion for the work performed. Without limiting the foregoing, Borrower
shall pay all taxes (other than taxes based upon or measured by each Lender's
income or revenues or any personal property tax), if any, in connection with the
issuance of any Note and the filing and/or recording of any documents and/or
financing statements.
12.8 ENTIRE AGREEMENT
This Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which Borrower
is a party constitute the entire agreement between Borrower, Agent and Lenders
with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and supersede all prior
agreements and understandings, if any, relating to the subject matter hereof or
thereof. Any promises, representations, warranties or guarantees not herein
contained and hereinafter made shall have no force and effect unless in writing
signed by Borrower, Agent and such Lenders. No provision of this Agreement may
be changed, modified, amended, restated, waived, supplemented, discharged,
canceled or terminated orally or by any course of dealing or in any other manner
other than by an agreement in writing signed by Borrower, Agent and Lenders.
Each party hereto acknowledges that it has been advised by counsel in connection
with the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and is not relying upon
oral representations or statements inconsistent with the terms and provisions
hereof.
12.9 AGENT APPROVALS
Unless expressly provided herein to the contrary, any
approval, consent, waiver or satisfaction of Agent with respect to any matter
that is subject of any Loan Document may be granted or withheld by Agent in its
sole and absolute discretion.
12.10 CONFIDENTIALITY AND PUBLICITY
Borrower agrees, and agrees to cause each of its affiliates,
(i) not to transmit or disclose any provision of any Loan Document to any Person
(other than (A) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations, (B) to
their respective advisors and officers on a need-to-know basis, and (C) to their
respective owners in connection with reports distributed in the ordinary course
of business) without Agent's prior written consent, (ii) to inform all Persons
of the confidential nature of the Loan Documents and to direct them not to
disclose the same to any other Person and to require each of them to be bound by
these provisions. Agent and each Lender reserve the right to review and approve
all materials that Borrower or any of its affiliates prepares that contain
Agent's or such Lender's name or describe or refer to any Loan Document, any of
the terms thereof or any of the transactions contemplated thereby. Borrower
shall not, and shall not permit any of its affiliates to, use either Agent's or
any Lender's name (or the name of any of Agent's or any Lender's affiliates) in
connection with any of its business operations. Nothing contained in any Loan
Document is intended to permit or authorize Borrower or any of its affiliates to
contract on behalf of Agent or any Lender.
60
12.11 RELEASE OF AGENT AND LENDERS
Notwithstanding any other provision of any Loan Document,
Borrower voluntarily, knowingly, unconditionally and irrevocably, with specific
and express intent, for and on behalf of itself, its managers, members,
directors, officers, employees, shareholders, affiliates, agents,
representatives, accountants, attorneys, successors and assigns and their
