SECTION 3. REVOLVING LOANS AND COLLECTIONS
3.1. Funding Conditions and Procedures.
(a) Amounts and Requests. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Financing Agreement, the
Agent and the Lenders, pro rata in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Percentages, severally
(and not jointly) agree to make loans and advances to the Funds Administrator on behalf of each
Company on a revolving basis (i.e. subject to the limitations set forth herein, each Company,
through the Funds Administrator, may borrow, repay and re-borrow Revolving Loans). In no event
shall the Agent or any Lender have an obligation to make a Revolving Loan to any Company, nor shall
the Funds Administrator or any Company be entitled to request or receive a Revolving Loan, if (i) a
Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and remain outstanding on the date of request for
such Revolving Loan or the date of the funding thereof, (ii) the amount of such Revolving Loan,
when added to the principal amount of the Revolving Loans outstanding plus the undrawn amount of
all Letters of Credit, Bankers Acceptances, Steamship Guarantees and Airway Releases on the date of
the request therefor or the funding thereof, would exceed the Revolving Line of Credit, or (iii)
amount of such Revolving Loan would exceed the Net Availability of the Companies on the date of the
request therefor or the funding thereof. Any request for a Revolving Loan must be received from the
Funds Administrator by an officer of the Agent no later than 12:00 p.m., New York City time, (a) on
the Business Day on which such Revolving Loan is required, if the request is for a Chase Bank Rate
Loan, or (b) three (3) Business Days prior to the Business Day on which such Revolving Loan is
required, if the request is for a LIBOR Loan. The funding of any LIBOR Loan is also subject to the
satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.9 of this Financing Agreement.
(b) Phone and Electronic Loan Requests. The Companies hereby authorize the Agent and the
Lenders to make Revolving Loans to the Funds Administrator based upon a telephonic or e-mail
request (or, if permitted by the Agent, based upon a request posted on CIT’s System) made by any
officer or other employee of the Funds Administrator that the Funds Administrator has authorized in
writing to request Revolving Loans hereunder, as reflected by the Agent’s records. Each telephonic,
e-mail or posted request by the Funds Administrator shall be irrevocable, and the Funds
Administrator agrees to confirm any such request for a Revolving Loan in a writing approved by the
Agent and signed by such authorized officer or employee, within one (1) Business Day of the Agent’s
request for such confirmation. The Agent shall have the right to rely on any telephonic, e-mail or
posted request for a Revolving Loan made by anyone purporting to be an officer or other employee of
the Funds Administrator that the Funds Administrator has authorized in writing to request Revolving
Loans hereunder, without further investigation.
(c) Advances by the Agent. The Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, shall disburse all loans and
advances to the Funds Administrator and shall handle all collections of Collateral and repayment of
all Obligations. It is understood that for purposes of advances to the Funds Administrator and for
purposes of this Section 3.1, the Agent will be using the funds of the Agent, and pending
settlement, all interest accruing on such advances shall be payable to the Agent.
30
(d) Settlement Among Lenders.
(i) Unless the Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender prior to any advance to
the Funds Administrator that such Lender will not make the amount which would constitute its Pro
Rata Percentage of the borrowing on such date available to the Agent, the Agent may assume that
such Lender shall make such amount available to the Agent on a Settlement Date, and in reliance
upon such assumption, the Agent may make available to the Funds Administrator a corresponding
amount. A certificate of the Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amount owing under
this subsection shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. If such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of
such borrowing is not in fact made available to the Agent by such Lender on the Settlement Date,
the Agent shall be entitled to recover from the Companies, on demand, such Lender’s Pro Rata
Percentage of such borrowing, together with interest thereon (for the account of the Agent) at the
rate per annum applicable to such borrowing, without prejudice to any rights which the Agent may
have against such Lender under Section 13.3 hereof. Nothing contained herein shall be
deemed to obligate the Agent to make available to the Companies the full amount of a requested
advance when the Agent has any notice (written or otherwise) that any of the Lenders will not
advance its Pro Rata Percentage thereof.
(ii) On each Settlement Date, the Agent and the Lenders shall each remit to the other, in
immediately available funds, all amounts necessary so as to ensure that, as of the Settlement Date,
the Lenders shall have advanced their respective Pro Rata Percentages of all outstanding Revolving
Loans. Each Lender’s obligation to make the Revolving Loans referred to in Section 3.1(a)
and to make the settlements pursuant to this Section 3.1(d) shall be absolute and
unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including without limitation (v) any
set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which any such Lender or the Companies
may have against the Agent, the other Companies, any other Lender or any other person, (w) the
occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, (x) any adverse change in the
condition (financial or otherwise) of the Companies, or any of them, (y) any breach of this
Financing Agreement or any other Loan Document by the Companies, or any of them, or any other
Lender or (z) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any
of the foregoing.
(e) Reaffirmation of Representations and Warranties. Except for the representations and
warranties set forth in Sections 6.8, 6.9 and 7.1, all of the
representations and warranties made by the Companies in this Financing Agreement shall be deemed to
be remade by the Companies each time that the Funds Administrator requests a Revolving Loan, a
Letter of Credit, a Bankers Acceptance, a Steamship Guarantee or an Airway Release under this
Financing Agreement, and each such request shall also constitute a representation and warranty by
the Companies that, after giving effect to the requested Revolving Loan, Letter of Credit, a
Bankers Acceptance, a Steamship Guarantee or an Airway Release, no Default or Event of Default
shall have occurred and remain outstanding.
(f) Funds Administrator Appointment. Each Company hereby irrevocably appoints the Funds
Administrator, as the agent for such Company on its behalf, to (i) request Revolving Loans from
CIT, (ii) to give and receive notices under the Loan Documents and (iii) take all other action
which the Funds Administrator or the Companies are permitted or required to take under this
Financing Agreement.
31
3.2. Handling of Proceeds of Collateral; Cash Dominion.
(a) Collection of Accounts and Other Proceeds. The Companies, at their expense, will enforce
and collect payments and other amounts owing on all Accounts in the ordinary course of the
Companies’ business subject to the terms hereof. The Companies agree to direct their account
debtors to send payments on all Accounts directly to a lockbox associated with a Depository
Account, and to include on all of the Companies’ invoices the address of such a lockbox as the sole
address for remittance of payment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, should any Company ever receive
any payment on an Account or other Proceeds of the sale of Collateral, including checks, cash,
receipts from credit card sales and receipts, notes or other instruments or property with respect
to any Collateral, such Company agrees to hold such proceeds in trust for the Agent, for the
benefit of the Agent and the Lenders, separate from such Company’s other property and funds, and to
deposit such proceeds directly into a Depository Account on the Business Day received.
(b) Transfer of Funds from Depository Accounts. Funds remaining on deposit in a Depository
Account shall be transferred to the Agent’s Bank Account on each Business Day in accordance with
the terms and provisions of the applicable Depository Account Control Agreement, and the Companies
agree to take all actions reasonably required by the Agent or any bank at which a Depository
Account is maintained in order to effectuate the transfer of funds in this manner. All amounts
received from a Depository Account and any other proceeds of the Collateral deposited into the
Agent’s Bank Account will, for purposes of calculating Net Availability and interest, be credited
to the Revolving Loan Account on the date of deposit in the Agent’s Bank Account. No checks, drafts
or other instruments received by the Agent shall constitute final payment to the Agent unless and
until such instruments have actually been collected.
(c) New Depository Accounts. Each Company agrees not to open any lockbox or new bank account
into which Proceeds of Collateral are to be delivered or deposited unless concurrently with the
opening of such lockbox and/or bank account, the Agent, such Company and the bank which will
maintain such lockbox or at which such account will be maintained, execute a Depository Account
Control Agreement with respect to such lockbox and/or related bank account. Upon compliance with
the terms set forth above, such lockbox and/or bank account shall constitute a Depository Account
for purposes of this Financing Agreement.
(d) Credit Card Receipts. Each Company agrees to direct all credit card processors handling
proceeds of sale of such Company’s Inventory to transfer all funds due to such Company pursuant to
such arrangement directly to a Depository Account. Promptly after the establishment of any credit
card processing or depository relationship, the Companies agree to notify the Agent in writing of
the establishment of such relationship and shall cause the credit card processor to execute and
deliver to the Agent an agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent, pursuant to
which the credit card processor agrees to deposit all sums due to the Companies (or any of them)
pursuant to such arrangement directly to a Depository Account.
32
3.3. Collective Borrowing Arrangement; Revolving Loan Account.
(a) Collective Borrowing Arrangement. The Companies have informed the Agent that: (i) in order
to increase the efficiency and productivity of each Company, the Funds Administrator has
established a centralized cash management system for the Companies that entails, in part, central
disbursement and operating accounts in which the Funds Administrator provides the working capital
needs of each of the other Companies and manages and timely pays the accounts payable of each of
the other Companies; (ii) the Funds Administrator further enhances the operating efficiencies of
the other Companies by purchasing, or causing to be purchased, in the Funds Administrator’s name
for its account, all or substantially all materials, supplies, inventory and services required by
the other Companies, resulting in a reduction in operating costs of the other Companies; and (iii)
all of the Companies presently engage in an integrated operation that requires financing on an
integrated basis, and each Company expects to benefit from the continued successful performance of
such integrated operations. Therefore, in order to best utilize the borrowing powers of the
Companies in the most effective and cost efficient manner and to avoid adverse effects on the
operating efficiencies of each Company and the existing back-office practices of the Companies,
each Company has requested that all Revolving Loans and other advances be disbursed solely upon the
request of the Funds Administrator and to bank accounts managed solely by the Funds Administrator,
it being the intent and desire of the Companies that the Funds Administrator manage for the benefit
of each Company the expenditure and usage of such funds.
(b) Revolving Loan Account. The Agent shall charge the Revolving Loan Account for all loans
and advances made by the Agent and the Lenders to the Funds Administrator, or otherwise for any
Company’s account, and for all any other Obligations, including Out-of-Pocket Expenses, when due
and payable hereunder. Subject to the provisions of Section 3.5 below, the Agent will credit the
Revolving Loan Account with all amounts received by the Agent from each Depository Account or from
others for each Company’s account, including, as set forth above, all amounts received by the Agent
in payment of Accounts, and such amounts will be applied to payment of the Obligations in the order
and manner set forth herein. In no event shall prior recourse to any Account or other security
granted to or by the Companies be a prerequisite to the Agent’s or the Lenders’ rights to demand
payment of any of the Obligations. In addition, the Companies agree that neither the Agent nor any
Lender shall have any obligation whatsoever to perform in any respect any Company’s contracts or
obligations relating to the Accounts.
3.4. Repayment of Overadvances. If at any time (a) the sum of the outstanding balance
of Revolving Loans and undrawn amount of Letters of Credit, Bankers Acceptances, Steamship
Guarantees and Airway Releases exceed the Revolving Line of Credit, or (b) an Overadvance exists,
the amount of such excess (in the case of clause (a)) or the amount of the Overadvance (in the case
of clause (b)) shall be immediately due and payable unless the Agent (as permitted hereunder) or
the Lenders otherwise agree in writing. Should the Agent or the Lenders for any reason honor
requests for Overadvances, such Overadvances shall be made in the Agent’s or the Lenders’ sole
discretion and subject to any additional terms the Agent or the Lenders deem necessary. In no event
shall any Company withdraw any Invested Cash if, after giving effect to any such withdrawal, an
Overadvance would exist.
33
3.5. Application of Proceeds of Collateral.
(a) Generally. Unless this Financing Agreement expressly provides otherwise, so long as no
Event of Default shall have occurred and remain outstanding, the Agent agrees to apply all Proceeds
of Due from Factor Receivables and Trade Accounts Receivable, all Proceeds of all other Collateral,
and any other payment received by the Agent with respect to the Obligations, in such order and
manner as the Agent shall elect in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment. Any amounts
applied to the repayment of the Revolving Loans pursuant to this Section 3.5(a) (other than
the proceeds of Due from Factor Receivables and Trade Accounts Receivable in the ordinary course of
the Companies’ business) shall result in a reduction of the Supplemental Amount in an amount equal
to such repayment of Revolving Loans.
(b) Application of Proceeds to Chase Bank Rate Loans and LIBOR Loans. So long as no Event of
Default shall have occurred and remain outstanding, the Agent agrees to apply all Proceeds of
Collateral and other payments described in Section 3.5(a) to Chase Bank Rate Loans until
there are no Chase Bank Rate Loans outstanding, and then to LIBOR Loans; provided that in
the event the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Revolving Loans that are LIBOR Loans
exceeds Net Availability or any other applicable limit set forth herein, the Agent may apply all
proceeds of Collateral received by the Agent to the payment of the Obligations in such manner and
in such order as the Agent may elect in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment. Subject
to the terms of the preceding sentence, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and
remain outstanding, if the Agent receives Proceeds of Collateral or other payments that exceed the
outstanding principal amount of Revolving Loans that are Chase Bank Rate Loans, the Funds
Administrator may request, in writing, that the Agent not apply such excess Proceeds to outstanding
Revolving Loans that are LIBOR Loans, in which case the Agent shall remit such excess to the Funds
Administrator. If as a result of the application of the provisions of this Section 3.5(b),
any Proceeds of Collateral are applied to loans that are LIBOR Loans, such application shall be
treated as a prepayment of such LIBOR Loans and the Lenders shall be entitled to the costs and fees
provided for in Section 8.10 hereof.
(c) Application of Proceeds During an Event of Default. If an Event of Default shall have
occurred and remain outstanding, the Agent agrees to apply all Proceeds of Collateral and all other
payments received by the Agent to the payment of the Obligations in the manner and order set forth
in Section 10.4 hereof. If as a result of the application of the provisions of this
Section 3.5(c), any Proceeds or payments are applied to loans that are LIBOR Loans, such
application shall be treated as a prepayment of such LIBOR Loans and the Lenders shall be entitled
to the costs and fees provided for in Section 8.10 hereof.
3.6. Monthly Statement. After the end of each month, the Agent agrees to prepare and
make available to the Companies (by mail, facsimile, e-mail or posting to CIT’s System, as mutually
agreed to by the Funds Administrator and the Agent) and the Lenders, a statement showing the
accounting for the charges, loans, advances and other transactions occurring among the Agent, the
Lenders, the Funds Administrator and each Company during that month. Absent
34
manifest error, each monthly statement shall be deemed correct and binding upon each Company,
the Funds Administrator and the Lenders, and shall constitute accounts stated between the Companies
and the Funds Administrator on one hand, and the Lenders and the Agent on the other hand, as the
case may be, unless the Agent receives a written statement of exception from the Companies, the
Funds Administrator or any Lender within thirty (30) days of the date of such monthly statement.
3.7. Access to CIT’s System. The Agent shall provide to the Funds Administrator access
to CIT’s System during normal business hours, for the purposes of (i) obtaining information
regarding loan balances and Net Availability, and (ii) if permitted by the Agent, making requests
for Revolving Loans and submitting Borrowing Base Certificates. Such access shall be subject to the
following terms, in addition to all terms set forth on the website for CIT’s System:
(a) The Agent shall provide to the Funds Administrator an initial password for secured access
to CIT’s System. The Funds Administrator shall provide the Agent with a list of officers and
employees that are authorized from time to time to access CIT’s System, and the Funds Administrator
agrees to limit access to the password and CIT’s System to such authorized officers and employees.
After the initial access, the Funds Administrator shall be solely responsible for (i) changing and
maintaining the integrity of the Funds Administrator’s password and (ii) any unauthorized use of
the Funds Administrator’s password or CIT’s System by any Company’s officers and employees.
(b) The Companies shall use CIT’s System and the Companies’ information thereon solely for the
purposes permitted above, and shall not access CIT’s System for the benefit of third parties or
provide any information obtained from CIT’s System to third parties. The Agent makes no
representation that loan balance or Net Availability information is or will be available, accurate,
complete, correct or current at all times. CIT’s System may be inoperable or inaccessible from time
to time, whether for required website maintenance, upgrades to CIT’s System, or for other reasons,
and in any such event the Funds Administrator must obtain loan balance and Net Availability
information, and (if permitted by the Agent) make requests for Revolving Loans and submit Borrowing
Base Certificates using other available means.
(c) The Companies hereby confirm and agree that CIT’s System consist of proprietary software,
data, tools, scripts, algorithms, business logic, website designs and interfaces and related
intellectual property, information and documentation. CIT’s System and related intellectual
property, information and documentation are the sole and exclusive property of the Agent, and the
Companies shall have no right, title or interest therein or thereto, except for the limited right
to access CIT’s System for the purposes permitted above. Upon termination of this Financing
Agreement, the Companies agree to cease any use of CIT’s System.
(d) All agreements, covenants and representations and warranties made by the Funds
Administrator in any Borrowing Base Certificate submitted to the Agent by means of CIT’s System are
incorporated herein by reference and shall be deemed to be made by each Company.
SECTION 4. [RESERVED]
35
SECTION 5. LETTERS OF CREDIT, BANKERS ACCEPTANCES, STEAMSHIP GUARANTEES AND AIRWAY
RELEASES.
In order to assist the Companies (or any of them) in establishing or opening Letters of Credit
(and Bankers Acceptances, Steamship Guarantees and Airway Releases relating thereto) with an
Issuing Bank, the Companies have requested that the Lenders (acting through the Agent) join in the
applications for such Letters of Credit (and Bankers Acceptances, Steamship Guarantees and Airway
Releases relating thereto), buy risk participations in, and/or guarantee payment or performance of,
such Letters of Credit and any drafts or Bankers Acceptances, Steamship Guarantees and Airway
Releases thereunder through the issuance of one or more Letter of Credit Guaranties, thereby
lending the Lenders’ credit to the Companies, and the Agent and the Lenders have agreed to do so
based upon their respective Pro Rata Percentages. These arrangements shall be handled by the Agent
subject to satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 2.1 hereof and the terms and
conditions set forth below.
5.1. Assistance and Purpose. Within the Revolving Line of Credit and subject to
sufficient Net Availability, the Lenders (acting through the Agent) shall assist the Companies in
obtaining Letters of Credit (and Bankers Acceptances, Steamship Guarantees and Airway Releases
relating thereto) based upon their respective Pro Rata Percentages in an aggregate undrawn amount
outstanding at any time not to exceed the Letter of Credit Sub-Line. The term, form and purpose of
each Letter of Credit, Bankers Acceptance, Steamship Guaranty and Airway Release and all
documentation in connection therewith, and any amendments, modifications or extensions thereof,
must be mutually acceptable to the Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Funds Administrator, provided
that the Companies shall not request a Letter of Credit to support the purchase of domestic
Inventory or to secure present or future indebtedness owed to suppliers of domestic Inventory,
except to the extent consistent with their past business practices. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Financing Agreement to the contrary, if a Default or an Event of Default shall
have occurred and remain outstanding, (a) the Agent’s and the Lenders’ assistance in connection
with any Letter of Credit, Bankers Acceptance, Steamship Guarantee or Airway Release shall be in
the discretion of the Required Lenders, and (b) each Company shall be required to furnish cash
collateral in an amount equal to 105% of the aggregate face amount of all outstanding Letters of
Credit, Bankers Acceptances, Steamship Guarantees or Airway Releases provided to such Company. If a
Company is required to provide cash collateral for any such Letter of Credit, Bankers Acceptance,
Steamship Guaranty or Airway Release pursuant to this Agreement on or prior to the Termination
Date, such Company will pay to the Agent for the ratable benefit of itself and Lenders cash or cash
equivalents acceptable to the Agent (“Cash Equivalents”) in an amount equal to 105% of the
maximum amount then available to be drawn under each such Letter of Credit, Bankers Acceptance,
Steamship Guarantee and Airway Release outstanding. Such funds or Cash Equivalents shall be held by
the Agent in a cash collateral account for each Company (each, a “Cash Collateral Account”)

accordance with the provisions of the UCC. The Companies hereby consent to and ratify the filing of
any financing statements covering the Collateral by the Agent on or prior to the Closing Date. The
Companies agree to do whatever the Agent reasonably may request from time to time, by way of (i)
filing notices of liens, financing statements, amendments, renewals and continuations thereof, (ii)
cooperating with agents and employees of the Agent, (iii) keeping Collateral records, (iv)
transferring proceeds of Collateral to the Agent’s possession in accordance with the terms hereof
and (v) performing such further acts as the Agent reasonably may require in order to effect the
purposes of this Financing Agreement, including the execution of control agreements with respect to
Depository Accounts and Investment Property.
(c) Insurance and Condemnation.
(i) Required Insurance. The Companies agree to maintain insurance on all Real Estate,
Equipment and Inventory under such policies of insurance, with such insurance companies, in such
reasonable amounts and covering such insurable risks as are at all times reasonably satisfactory to
the Agent (the “Required Insurance”). All policies covering the Real Estate, Equipment and
Inventory are, subject to the rights of any holder of a Permitted Encumbrance having priority over
the security interests of the Agent, to be made payable solely to the Agent, for the benefit of the
Agent and the Lenders, in case of loss, under a standard non-contributory “mortgagee”, “secured
party” or “lender’s loss payable” clause or endorsement, and are to contain such other provisions
as the Agent reasonably may require to fully protect the Agent’s interest in the Real Estate,
Inventory and Equipment and to any payments to be made under such policies. Each loss payable
endorsement in favor of the Agent shall provide (x) for not less than thirty (30) days prior
written notice to the Agent of the exercise of any right of cancellation and (y) that the Agent’s
right to payment under any property insurance policy will not be invalidated by any act or neglect
of, or any breach of warranty or condition by, the Companies (or any of them) or any other party.
If an Event of Default shall have occurred and remain outstanding, the Agent, subject to the rights
of any holder of a Permitted Encumbrance having priority over the security interests of the Agent,
shall have the sole right, in the name of the Agent or the Companies (or any of them), to file
claims under any insurance policies, to receive, receipt and give acquittances for any payments
that may be payable thereunder, and to execute any and all endorsements, receipts, releases,
assignments, reassignments or other documents that may be necessary to effect the collection,
compromise or settlement of any claims under any such insurance policies.
47
(ii) The Agent’s Purchase of Insurance. In the event the Companies fail to
provide the Agent with evidence of the Required Insurance in the manner set forth in Section
7.2(c)(i) above, the Agent may purchase insurance at the Companies’ expense to protect the interest
in the Collateral of the Agent for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders. The insurance
purchased by the Agent may, but need not, protect the Companies’ interests in the Collateral, and
therefor such insurance may not pay any claim which the Companies may make or any claim which is
made against the Companies in connection with the Collateral. The Companies may later request that
the Agent cancel any insurance purchased by the Agent, but only after providing the Agent with
satisfactory evidence that the Companies have the Required Insurance. If the Agent purchases
insurance covering all or any portion of the Collateral, the Companies shall be responsible for the
costs of such insurance, including interest (at the applicable rate set forth hereunder) and other
charges accruing on the purchase price therefor, until the effective date of the cancellation or
the expiration of the insurance, and the Agent may charge all of such costs, interest and other
charges to the Revolving Loan Account as a Revolving Loan. The costs of the premiums of any
insurance purchased by the
Agent may exceed the costs of insurance which the Companies may be able to purchase on their
own. In the event that the Agent purchases insurance, the Agent will notify the Companies of such
purchase within thirty (30) days after the date of such purchase. If, within thirty (30) days after
the date of receipt of such notice, the Companies provide the Agent with proof that the Companies
had the Required Insurance as of the date on which the Agent purchased insurance and the Companies
have continued at all times thereafter to have the Required Insurance, then the Agent agrees to
cancel the insurance purchased by the Agent and credit the Revolving Loan Account for the amount of
all costs, interest and other charges associated with such insurance that the Agent previously
charged to the Revolving Loan Account.
(iii) Application of Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds. So long as no Default or
Event of Default shall have occurred and remain outstanding as of the date of the Agent’s receipt
of any Casualty Proceeds:
(w) In the event of any loss or damage to any Inventory by condemnation, fire or other
casualty, the Agent agrees to apply the Casualty Proceeds to repay the outstanding Revolving Loans.
(x) In the event of any loss or damage to any item of Collateral other than Inventory by
condemnation, fire or other casualty, if the Casualty Proceeds relating to such condemnation, fire
or other casualty are less than or equal to $100,000, the Agent agrees to apply such Casualty
Proceeds to repay the outstanding Revolving Loans.
(y) In the event of any loss or damage to any item of Equipment by condemnation, fire or other
casualty, if the Casualty Proceeds relating to such condemnation, fire or other casualty exceed
$100,000, the Companies may elect (by delivering written notice to the Agent within ten (10)
Business Days following the Agent’s receipt of such Casualty Proceeds) to replace or repair such
item of Equipment. If the Companies elect to replace or repair any item of Equipment, the Agent
initially shall apply all such Casualty
48
Proceeds to the outstanding Revolving Loans and will establish an Availability Reserve in an
amount equal to such Casualty Proceeds. The Agent agrees to reduce this Availability Reserve
dollar-for-dollar as and when payments then are due under the contract(s) for the purchase of
replacement Equipment or the repair of such item of Equipment. Upon the replacement or completion
of repair of such item of Equipment, the Agent will eliminate any remaining Availability Reserve
established hereunder.
(z) In the event of any loss or damage to any Real Estate leased by the Companies by
condemnation, fire or other casualty, the Companies may use the Casualty Proceeds in the manner
required or permitted by the lease agreement relating thereto. In the event of any loss or damage
to any Real Estate owned by the Companies by condemnation, fire or other casualty, if the Casualty
Proceeds relating to such condemnation, fire or other casualty exceed $100,000, and so long as the
Companies have sufficient business interruption insurance to replace the lost profits of the
facilities affected by the condemnation, fire or other casualty, the Companies may elect to repair
or replace such Real Estate, subject to the following terms:
(1) If the Companies reasonably determine that the Real Estate may be repaired to
substantially the same condition of the Real Estate prior to the condemnation, fire or other
casualty, the Companies may elect to repair the Real Estate by delivering written notice to the
Agent within thirty (30) days following the Agent’s receipt of such Casualty Proceeds. The Agent
initially shall apply all such Casualty Proceeds to the outstanding Revolving Loans and will
establish an Availability Reserve in an amount equal to such Casualty Proceeds. The Companies shall
provide the Agent with a repair plan, the contract(s) for repair and a total budget certified by an
independent third party experienced in construction costing. If such budget indicates that there
are insufficient Casualty Proceeds to cover the full cost of repair of the Real Estate, the
Companies shall fund such deficiency before the Availability Reserve established hereunder shall be
reduced. The Agent agrees to reduce this Availability Reserve dollar-for-dollar as and when
payments are due under the contract(s) for repair. Upon
completion of the repair of the Real Estate (as determined by the Agent in the exercise of its
reasonable business judgment), the Agent will eliminate any remaining Availability Reserve
established hereunder.
(2) The Companies may elect to replace the Real Estate owned by the Companies only on terms
and conditions satisfactory to the Required Lenders in their sole discretion.
If a Default or an Event of Default shall have occurred and remain outstanding as of the date of
the Agent’s receipt of any Casualty Proceeds, or if the Companies do not or cannot elect to use the
Casualty Proceeds in the manner set forth in paragraphs (y) or (z) above, the Agent may, subject to
the rights of any holder of a Permitted Encumbrance having priority over the security interests of
the Agent, apply the Casualty Proceeds to the payment of the Obligations in such manner and in such
order as the Agent may elect in its sole discretion. Any amounts that are applied to the repayment
of the Revolving Loans under this Section 7.2(c) shall also result in a reduction in the
Supplemental Amount in an amount equal to such repayment of Revolving Loans.
49
(d) Payment of Taxes. The Companies shall pay when due all Taxes lawfully levied,
assessed or imposed upon the Companies or the Collateral (including all sales taxes collected by
the Companies on behalf of the Companies’ customers in connection with sales of Inventory and all
payroll taxes collected by the Companies on behalf of the Companies’ employees), unless the
Companies are contesting such Taxes in good faith, by appropriate proceedings, and is maintaining
adequate reserves for such Taxes in accordance with GAAP. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a lien
securing any Taxes is filed in any public office and such lien is not a Permitted Tax Lien, then
the Companies shall pay all Taxes secured by such lien immediately and remove such lien of record
promptly. Pending the payment of such Taxes and removal of such lien, the Agent may, at its
election and without curing or waiving any Event of Default which may have occurred as a result
thereof, (i) establish an Availability Reserve in the amount of such Taxes (or such other amount as
the Agent shall deem appropriate in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment) or (ii) pay
such Taxes on behalf of the Companies, and the amount paid by the Agent shall become an Obligation
which is due and payable on demand by the Agent.
(e) Compliance With Laws.
(i) The Companies agree to comply with all federal, state and local acts, rules and
regulations, and all orders of any federal, state or local legislative, administrative or judicial
body or official, if the failure to so comply would have a Material Adverse Effect, provided that
the Companies may contest any acts, rules, regulations, orders and directions of such bodies or
officials in any reasonable manner which the Agent determines, in the exercise of its reasonable
business judgment, will not materially and adversely effect the Agent’s or the Lenders’ rights or
priorities in the Collateral.
(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Company agrees to comply with all
environmental statutes, acts, rules, regulations or orders, as presently existing or as adopted or
amended in the future, applicable to the ownership and/or use of such Company’s real property and
operation of its business, if the failure to so comply would have a Material Adverse Effect. No
Company shall be deemed to have breached any provision of this Section 7.2(e) if (x) the
failure to comply with the requirements of this Section 7.2(e) resulted from good faith
error or innocent omission, (y) such Company promptly commences and diligently pursues a cure of
such breach and (z) such failure is cured within thirty (30) days following the Companies’ receipt
of notice from the Agent of such failure, or if such breach cannot in good faith be cured within
thirty (30) days following the Companies’ receipt of such notice, then such breach is cured within
a reasonable time frame based on the extent and nature of the breach and the necessary remediation,
and in conformity with any applicable consent order, consensual agreement and applicable law.
(f) Notices Concerning Environmental, Employee Benefit and Pension Matters. The Companies
agree to notify the Agent in writing of:
(i) any expenditure (actual or anticipated) in excess of $100,000 for environmental clean-up,
environmental compliance or environmental testing and the impact of said expenses on the any
Company’s working capital;
50
(ii) any Company’s receipt of notice from any local, state or federal authority advising
the Companies of any environmental liability (real or potential) arising from such Company’s
operations, its premises, its waste disposal practices, or waste disposal sites used by such
Company; and
(iii) any Company’s receipt of notice from any governmental agency or any sponsor of any
“multiemployer plan” (as that term is defined in ERISA) to which such Company has contributed,
relating to any of the events described in Section 10.1(g) hereof.

information pertaining to any matter set forth above if the Agent so requests.

financial conditions of the relevant Company;
(III) concurrently with the making of a Permitted Acquisition, the relevant

pursuant to the reasonable requirements of the Companies, any Guarantor or any subsidiary of a
Company, as the case may be, and upon standard terms and conditions and fair and reasonable terms,
no less favorable to such entity than such entity could obtain in a comparable arms length
transaction with an unrelated third party, and (iii) no Event of Default shall have occurred and
remain outstanding at the time such transaction occurs, or would occur after giving effect to such
transaction; provided, however, that if no Event of Default shall have occurred
which shall remain outstanding at the time such transaction occurs, or would occur after giving
effect to such transaction, the Companies may make up to $5,000,000 in the aggregate during the

each in substantially the form of Exhibit 7.5 hereof, with such modifications as such licensors
shall request to the extent such modifications are acceptable to the Agent. The foregoing shall not

the gross amount of the Companies’ Inventory related to such unobtained landlord waiver.

SECTION 8. INTEREST, FEES AND EXPENSES
8.1. Interest. Interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loans
that are Chase Bank Rate Loans shall be due and payable monthly on the first day of each month and
shall accrue at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin plus the Chase Bank Rate on
the average net principal balance of such Revolving Loans at the close of each day during the
immediately preceding month, as reflected by CIT’s System. On each Revolving Loan that is a LIBOR
Loan, interest shall be due and payable on the LIBOR Interest Payment Date and shall accrue at a
rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin plus the applicable LIBOR on the outstanding
principal balance of such LIBOR Loan. In the event of any change in said Chase Bank Rate, the rate
set forth in the first sentence of this Section 8.1 shall change, effective as of the first
day of the month following the date of such change, so as to remain equal to the Applicable Margin
plus the new Chase Bank Rate. All interest rates shall be calculated based on a 360-day year and
actual days elapsed. Unless the Company has received forms or other documents reasonably
satisfactory to it from Lenders that are not organized under the laws of the United States or any
State thereof (each such Lender, a “Foreign Lender”) indicating that payments to such Foreign
Lender under a Revolving Loan are not subject to United States withholding tax, the Company shall
withhold such United States withholding tax from such payments to such Foreign Lender at the
applicable statutory rate.
8.2. Default Interest Rate. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, (a)
provided that the Agent has given the Companies written notice of such Event of Default
(other than an Event of Default described in Section 10.1(d) of this Financing Agreement,
for which no written notice shall be required), all Obligations may, at the election of the Agent
or the Required Lenders, bear interest at the Default Rate of Interest until such Event of Default
is waived, and (b) at the Agent’s or the Required Lenders’ election at any time thereafter,
interest on each outstanding LIBOR Loan shall be due and payable on the first day of each month,
notwithstanding the Interest Period with respect thereto.
61
8.3. Fees and Expenses Relating to Letters of Credit, Bankers Acceptances, Steamship
Guarantees and Airway Releases.
(a) Letter of Credit Guaranty Fee and Bankers Acceptance Fee. In consideration of the issuance
of any Letter of Credit Guaranty by the Agent or other assistance of the Agent and the Lenders in
obtaining Letters of Credit, Bankers Acceptances, Steamship Guarantees and/or Airway Releases
pursuant to Section 5 hereof, the Companies agree to pay to the Agent, for the ratable
benefit of the Lenders (based upon their respective Pro Rata Percentages), a Letter of Credit
Guaranty Fee equal to the Applicable Margin on the face amount of each Letter of Credit (such
Letter of Credit Guaranty Fee to be paid at a per annum rate in advance with respect to standby
Letters of Credit and on the date of issuance of documentary Letters of Credit) and a Bankers
Acceptance Fee, Steamship Guarantee Fee and/or Airway Release Fee, in each case equal to the
Applicable Margin per annum on the face amount of each Bankers Acceptance, Steamship Guarantee or
Airway Release, as the case may be (such Bankers Acceptance Fee, Steamship Guarantee Fee and/or
Airway Release Fee to be paid at a per annum rate in advance). All Letter of Credit Guaranty Fees,
Bankers Acceptance Fees, Steamship Guarantee Fees and/or Airway Release Fees shall be due and
payable on the date of issuance and each date of renewal of the applicable Letter of Credit,
Bankers Acceptance, Steamship Guarantee and/or Airway Release.
(b) Charges of Issuing Bank. The Companies agree to reimburse the Agent for any and all
charges, fees, commissions, costs and expenses charged to the Agent for any Company’s account by an
Issuing Bank in
connection with, or arising out of, Letters of Credit or out of transactions relating thereto,
when charged to or paid by the Agent, or as may be due upon any termination of this Financing
Agreement.
8.4. Out-of-Pocket Expenses. The Companies agree to reimburse the Agent and the
Lenders for all Out-of-Pocket Expenses when charged to or paid by the Agent or the Lenders.
8.5. Line of Credit Fee; Charging of Interest and Fees. On the first day of each
month, commencing on May 1, 2008, (a) the Companies agree to pay to the Agent, for the ratable
benefit of the Lenders (based upon their respective Pro Rata Percentages), the Line of Credit Fee,
and (b) the Agent shall charge the Companies for interest on Chase Bank Rate Loans at the rate set
forth in Section 8.1 (or Section 8.2, if applicable) hereof for the immediately
preceding month. The Agent shall charge the Companies for interest on LIBOR Loans at the rate set
forth in Section 8.1 (or Section 8.2, if applicable) hereof on the applicable LIBOR
Interest Payment Date for the immediately preceding Interest Period.
8.6. Intentionally Omitted.
8.7. Fee Letter. The Companies agree to pay all fees and other amounts due under the
Fee Letter pursuant to the terms of the Fee Letter.
8.8. Standard Operational Fees. In addition to fees payable pursuant to the Fee
Letter, the Administrative Management Fee and all Out-of-Pocket Expenses incurred by the Agent in
connection with any action taken under Section 7.2(a) hereof (but without duplication), the
Companies agree to pay to the Agent, for its own account, (a) all Documentation Fees, (b) the
Agent’s standard charges for any employee of the Agent used to conduct any of the examinations,
verifications, inspections, physical counts and other valuations described in Section
7.2(a) hereof (currently $1,000 per person, per day; provided, however, that
unless an
62
Event of Default has occurred which is then continuing, the Companies shall not be required to
pay for more than one field examination during any calendar year) and (c) the Agent’s standard
charges for each wire transfer made by the Agent to or for the benefit of the Companies and for
Xxxx and Bradstreet searches conducted by the Agent for the any Company’s account, provided
that such standard charges may be increased by the Agent from time to time. Such charges shall be
due and payable in accordance with the Agent’s standard practices, as in effect from time to time.
8.9. LIBOR Loans.
(a) Conditions Applicable to LIBOR Loans. The Companies may elect to use LIBOR as to any
Revolving Loans, convert any Chase Bank Rate Loan to a new LIBOR Loan or continue any existing
LIBOR Loan as a new LIBOR Loan on the last day of the Interest Period with respect to such existing
LIBOR Loan, so long as:
(i) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and remain outstanding on the date on
which such new LIBOR Loan is requested and on the first day of the Interest Period for such new
LIBOR Loan;
(ii) the Funds Administrator requests the new LIBOR Loan no later than three (3) Business Days
preceding the first day of the Interest Period for such new LIBOR Loan (or three (3) Business Days
prior to the expiration of any Interest Period, in the case of a continuation of an existing LIBOR
Loan);
(iii) if the Agent requests written confirmation of any new LIBOR Loan from the Funds
Administrator, the Funds Administrator shall have signed and returned to the Agent any such
confirmation on or prior to the first day of the Interest Period for such new LIBOR Loan; and
(iv) with respect to the Interest Period selected by the Companies for such new LIBOR Loan,
(x) either (1) JPMorgan Chase Bank provides a LIBOR quote for such Interest Period or the Agent
otherwise determines the LIBOR for such Interest Period, as provided in the definition of LIBOR, or
(2) the LIBOR for such Interest Period as quoted by JPMorgan Chase Bank or as determined by the
Agent adequately and fairly reflects the cost of maintaining or funding the Lenders’ loans bearing
interest at LIBOR for such Interest Period, and (y) such Interest Period ends on or before the
Termination Date.
Any LIBOR election must be for at least $5,000,000 and if greater, in integral multiples of
$1,000,000, and there shall be no more than ten (10) LIBOR Loans outstanding at one time. Elections
for LIBOR Loans shall be irrevocable once made. If any condition for a LIBOR election is not
satisfied, then the requested new loan (or continuation of an existing LIBOR Loan) shall be made to
the Companies as a Chase Bank Rate Loan.
(b) Restrictions Affecting the Making or Funding of LIBOR Loans. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Financing Agreement to the contrary, if any law, regulation, treaty or directive,
or any amendment thereto or change in the interpretation or application thereof, shall make it
unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain any LIBOR Loan, then (x) such LIBOR Loan shall convert
automatically to a Chase Bank Rate Loan at the end of
63
the applicable Interest Period, or such earlier date as may be required by such law,
regulation, treaty or directive, and (y) the obligation of the Agent or the Lenders thereafter to
make or continue LIBOR Loans and to convert Chase Bank Rate Loans into LIBOR Loans hereunder shall
be suspended until the Agent determines that it is no longer unlawful for any Lender to make and
maintain LIBOR Loans as contemplated herein. In addition, in the event that, by reason of any
Regulatory Change, any Lender either (x) incurs any material additional costs based on or measured
by the excess above a specified level of the amount of a category of deposits or other liabilities
of such Lender which includes deposits by reference to which the interest rate on LIBOR Loans is
determined hereunder, or a category of extensions of credit or other assets of such Lender which
includes LIBOR Loans, or (y) becomes subject to any material restrictions on the amount of such a
category of liabilities or assets which such Lender may hold, then if the Agent so elects by notice
to the Companies, the obligations of the Agent and the Lenders thereafter to make or continue LIBOR
Loans and to convert Chase Bank Rate Loans into LIBOR Loans hereunder shall be suspended until such
Regulatory Change ceases to be in effect.
(c) Inability to Determine LIBOR. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Financing
Agreement to the contrary, if the Agent determines in the exercise of its reasonable business
judgment (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon each Company) that by reason of
circumstances affecting the interbank LIBOR market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for
ascertaining LIBOR applicable to an Interest Period with respect to any election of a new LIBOR
Loan, the Agent shall give written notice of such determination to the Companies prior to the
effective date of such election. Upon receipt of such notice, the Funds Administrator may cancel
the Funds Administrator’s request for such new LIBOR Loan, in which case the requested LIBOR Loan
shall be made as a Chase Bank Rate Loan. Until such notice has been withdrawn by the Agent, the
obligations of the Agent and the Lenders thereafter to make or continue LIBOR Loans and to convert
Chase Bank Rate Loans into LIBOR Loans hereunder shall be suspended until the Agent determines that
adequate and reasonable means again exist for ascertaining LIBOR applicable to an Interest Period
with respect to any election of a new LIBOR Loan.
(d) Compensation for Costs. The Companies hereby agree to pay to the Agent, for the benefit of
the Lenders, on demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate the Lenders for any costs
incurred by the Lenders in making any conversions from LIBOR Loans to Chase Bank Rate Loans in
accordance with this Section 8.9, including, without limitation, breakage costs provided
for in Section 8.10 of this Financing Agreement.
(e) Loan Participants. For purposes of this Section 8.9, the term “Lender” shall
include any financial institution that purchases from any Lender a participation in the loans made
by such Lender to the Companies hereunder.
If the Companies fail to select a valid Interest Period as of the last day of the Interest Period
with respect to an existing LIBOR Loan, then the existing LIBOR Loan shall be continued as a Chase
Bank Rate Loan to the Companies as of the end of such Interest Period.
64
8.10. LIBOR Breakage Costs and Fees. The Companies shall pay to the Agent for the
account of each Lender, upon the request of such Lender through the Agent, such amount or amounts
as shall compensate such Lender for any loss (including loss of profit), cost or expense incurred
by such Lender (as reasonably determined by such Lender) as a result of:
(a) any payment or prepayment or conversion of a LIBOR Loan held by such Lender on a date
other than the last day of an Interest Period for such LIBOR Loan; or
(b) any failure by the Companies to borrow a LIBOR Loan held by such Lender on the date for
such borrowing specified in the relevant request to Agent; such compensation to include, without
limitation, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have
accrued on the amount so paid, prepaid or converted or not borrowed for the period from the date of
such payment, prepayment or conversion or failure to borrow, convert or prepay to the last day of
the then current Interest Period for such LIBOR Loan (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, the
Interest Period for such LIBOR Loan which would have commenced on the date of such failure to
borrow) at the applicable rate of interest for such LIBOR Loan provided for herein over (ii) the
amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) such Lender would have bid in the
London interbank market for Dollar deposits of amounts comparable to such principal amount and
maturities comparable to such period.
(c) The indemnification provisions of this Section 8.10 shall survive the termination of this
Financing Agreement and the payment and satisfaction of the Obligations.
8.11. Early Termination Fee. In the event the Companies terminate the Revolving Line
of Credit or this Financing Agreement on an Early Termination Date, the Early Termination Fee shall
be due and payable in full to Agent for the pro rata benefit of Lenders with Commitments on the
date of termination.
8.12. Capital Adequacy. In the event that any Lender, subsequent to the Closing Date,
determines in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment that (x) any change in applicable
law, rule, regulation or guideline regarding capital adequacy, or (y) any change in the
interpretation or administration thereof, or (z) compliance by such Lender with any new request or
directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any central bank
or other governmental or regulatory authority, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of
return on such Lender’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that
which such Lender could have achieved but for such change or compliance (taking into consideration
such Lender’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed material by such
Lender in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, the Companies agree to pay to such
Lender, no later than five (5) days following demand by such Lender, such additional amount or
amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction in rate of return. In determining such
amount or amounts, such Lender may use any reasonable averaging or attribution methods. The
protection of this Section 8.12 shall be available to any Lender regardless of any possible
contention of invalidity or inapplicability with respect to the applicable law, regulation or
condition. A certificate of a Lender setting forth such amount or amounts as shall be necessary to
compensate such Lender with respect to this Section 8.12 and the calculation thereof, when
delivered to the Companies, shall be conclusive and binding on each Company absent manifest error.
In the event a Lender exercises its rights pursuant to this Section 8.12, and subsequent
thereto determines that the amounts paid by the Companies
65
exceeded the amount which such Lender actually required to compensate such Lender for any
reduction in rate of return on its capital, such excess shall be returned to the Companies by such
Lender. This indemnification shall survive the termination of this Financing Agreement and the
payment and satisfaction of the Obligations.
8.13. Taxes, Reserves and Other Conditions. In the event that any applicable law,
treaty or governmental regulation, or any change therein or in the interpretation or application
thereof, or compliance by any Lender with any new request or directive (whether or not having the
force of law) of any central bank or other governmental or regulatory authority, shall:
(a) subject such Lender to any Non-Excluded Taxes with respect to this Financing Agreement or
with respect to principal, fees, interest or any other amount payable hereunder or under any other
Loan Documents;
(b) impose or require any reserve, special deposit, assessment or similar requirement against
assets held by, or deposits in or for the account of, advances or loans by, or other credit
extended by such Lender by reason of or in respect to this Financing Agreement and the Loan
Documents, including (without limitation) pursuant to Regulation D of the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System; or
(c) impose on such Lender any other condition with respect to this Financing Agreement or any
other document;
and the result of any of the foregoing is to (i) increase the cost to such Lender of making,
renewing or maintaining such Lender’s loans hereunder by an amount deemed material by such Lender
in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, or (ii) reduce the amount of any payment
(whether of principal, interest or otherwise) in respect of any of the loans made hereunder by an
amount that such Lender deems to be material in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment,
the Companies agrees to pay to such Lender, no later than five (5) days following demand by such
Lender, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increase in cost
or reduction in payment, as the case may be. A certificate of any Lender setting forth such amount
or amounts as shall be necessary to compensate such Lender with respect to this Section
8.13 and the calculation thereof, when delivered to the Companies, shall be conclusive and
binding on the Companies absent manifest error. In the event any Lender exercises its rights
pursuant to this Section 8.13, and subsequent thereto determines that the amounts paid by
the Companies in whole or in part exceeded the amount which such Lender actually required to
compensate such Lender for any increase in cost or reduction in payment, such excess shall be
returned to the Companies by such Lender. This indemnification shall survive the termination of
this Financing Agreement and the payment and satisfaction of the Obligations.
8.14. Authority to Charge Revolving Loan Account. The Companies hereby authorize the
Agent to charge the Revolving Loan Account as a Revolving Loan in the amount of all payments due
under this Section 8 as such payments become due. Any amount charged to the Revolving Loan
Account shall be deemed a Revolving Loan and a Chase Bank Rate Loan hereunder and shall bear
interest at the rate provided in Section 8.1 (or Section 8.2, if applicable) of
this Financing Agreement. The Companies confirm that any charges which the Agent may make to the
Revolving Loan Account as provided herein will be made as an accommodation to the Companies and
solely at the Agent’s discretion.
66

an Event of Default, at the option of the Agent or the Required Lenders, all loans, advances and

accordance herewith. In addition, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Agent may, at its
option, and the Agent shall, upon the
request of the Required Lenders, (a) declare all Obligations immediately due and payable, (b)

Event of Default, the Agent may, at its option, and the Agent shall, upon the request of the
Required Lenders, to the extent permitted by applicable law: (a) remove from any premises where
same may be located any and all books and records, computers, electronic media and software
programs associated with any Collateral (including electronic records, contracts and signatures
pertaining thereto), documents, instruments and files, and any receptacles or cabinets containing
same, relating to the Accounts, and the Agent may use, at the Companies’ expense, such of the
Companies’ personnel, supplies or space at any Company’s place of business or otherwise, as may be
necessary to properly administer and control the Accounts or the handling of collections and
realizations thereon; (b) bring suit, in the name of the Companies (or any of them), the Lenders or

issue credits in the name of the Companies (or any of them) or the Agent; (c) sell, assign and

advertisement, at public or private sale, for cash, on credit or otherwise, at the Agent’s sole
option and discretion, and the Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, may bid or become a purchaser at
any such sale, free from any right of redemption, which right is hereby expressly waived by the
Companies; (d) foreclose the Agent’s security interests in the Collateral by any available judicial
procedure, or take possession of any or all of the Collateral without judicial process, and to
enter any premises where any Collateral may be located for the purpose of taking possession of or
removing the same; and (e) exercise any other rights and remedies provided in law, in equity, by
contract or otherwise. The Agent shall have the right, without notice or advertisement, to sell,
lease, or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Collateral whether in its then condition or
after further preparation or processing, in the name of the Companies (or any of them) or the
Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, or in the name of such other party as the Agent may designate,
either at public or private sale or at any broker’s board, in lots or in bulk, for cash or for
credit, with or without warranties or representations (including, without limitation, warranties of
title, possession, quiet enjoyment and the like), and upon such other terms and conditions as the
Agent in its sole discretion may deem advisable, and the Agent shall have the right to purchase at
any such sale on behalf of the Lenders. If any Inventory and Equipment shall require rebuilding,
repairing, maintenance or preparation, the Agent shall have the right, at its option, to do such of
the aforesaid as is necessary, for the purpose of putting the Inventory and Equipment in such
saleable form as the Agent shall deem appropriate. The Companies agree, at the request of the
Agent, to assemble the Inventory and Equipment, and to make it available to the Agent at premises
of the Companies or elsewhere and to make available to the Agent the premises and facilities of the
Companies for the purpose of the Agent’s taking possession of, removing or putting the Inventory
and Equipment in saleable form. If notice of intended disposition of any Collateral is required by
law, it is agreed that ten (10) days notice shall constitute reasonable notification and full
compliance with the law. The net cash proceeds resulting from the Agent’s exercise of any of the
foregoing rights (after deducting all Out-of-Pocket Expenses relating thereto) shall be applied by
the Agent to the payment of the Obligations in the order set
forth in Section 10.4 hereof, and the Companies shall remain liable to the Agent and
the Lenders for any deficiencies, and the Agent in turn agrees to remit to the
70
Companies or their successors or assigns, any surplus resulting therefrom. The enumeration of
the foregoing rights is not intended to be exhaustive and the exercise of any right shall not
preclude the exercise of any other right of the Agent or the Lenders under applicable law or the
other Loan Documents, all of which shall be cumulative.
10.4. Application of Proceeds. The Agent agrees to apply the net cash proceeds
resulting from the Agent’s exercise of any of the foregoing rights (after deducting all

(a) first, to all unpaid Out of Pocket Expenses;
(b) second, to all accrued and unpaid fees owed to the Agent and the Lenders;
(c) third, to accrued and unpaid interest on the Obligations (other than with respect to
Banking Services Obligations and Swap Contracts, and excluding Ledger Debt);
(d) fourth, to the unpaid principal amount of the Obligations (other than with respect to
Banking Services Obligations and Swap Contracts, and excluding Ledger Debt);
(e) fifth, to provide cash collateral for any outstanding Letters of Credit, Bankers
Acceptances, Steamship Guarantees or Airway Releases;
(f) sixth, to pay any amounts owed to the Agent or any of the Lenders with respect to Banking
Services Obligations and Swap Contracts; and
(g) seventh, to any unpaid Obligations not described in clauses (a) through (f) above.
10.5. General Indemnity. In addition to the Companies’ agreement to reimburse the
Agent and the Lenders for Out-of-Pocket Expenses, but without duplication, the Companies hereby
agree to indemnify the Agent and the Lenders, and each of their respective officers, directors,
employees, attorneys and agents (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from, and to defend and hold each
Indemnified Party harmless against, any and all losses, liabilities, obligations, claims, actions,
judgments, suits, damages, penalties, costs, fees, expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees)
of any kind or nature which at any time may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against, any
Indemnified Party:
(a) as a result of the Agent’s or the Lenders, exercise of (or failure to exercise) any of
their respective rights and remedies hereunder, including, without limitation, (i) any sale or
transfer of the Collateral, (ii) the preservation, repair, maintenance, preparation for sale or
securing of any Collateral, and (iii) the defense of the Agent’s interests in the Collateral
(including the defense of claims brought by the Companies (or any of them) as a
debtor-in-possession or otherwise, any secured or unsecured creditors of the Companies (or any of
them), or any trustee or receiver in bankruptcy);
(b) as a result of any environmental pollution, hazardous material or environmental clean-up
relating to the Real Estate, the Companies’ operation and use of the Real Estate, and the
Companies’ off-site disposal practices;
71
(c) arising from or relating to (i) the maintenance and operation of any Depository
Account, (ii) any Depository Account Control Agreements and (iii) any action taken (or failure to
act) by any Indemnified Party with respect thereto;
(d) in connection with any regulatory investigation or proceeding by any regulatory authority
or agency having jurisdiction over the Companies (or any of them); and
(e) otherwise relating to or arising out of the transactions contemplated by this Financing
Agreement and the other Loan Documents, or any action taken (or failure to act) by any Indemnified
Party with respect thereto;
provided that an Indemnified Party’s conduct in connection with the any of the foregoing
matters does not constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct, as finally determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction. This indemnification shall survive the termination of this
Financing Agreement and the payment and satisfaction of the Obligations. The Agent may from time to
time establish Availability Reserves with respect to this indemnity as the Agent may deem advisable
in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, and upon termination of this Financing
Agreement, the Agent may hold such reserves as cash reserves as security for this indemnity.
SECTION 11. TERMINATION
The Companies, or any one of them, may terminate this Financing Agreement at any time prior to
the Termination Date upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to the Agent (a copy of which
notice the Agent shall promptly provide to the Lenders), provided that the Companies pay to the
Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, any Early Termination Fee due and payable hereunder on the
date of termination. A termination by one Company shall be deemed to be a termination by all
Companies. All Obligations shall become due and payable in full on the date of any termination
hereunder and, pending a final accounting of the Obligations, the Agent may withhold any credit
balances in the Revolving Loan Account (unless supplied with an indemnity satisfactory to the
Agent), and/or require the Companies to deliver to the Agent sufficient Cash Equivalents, in either
case to be held in a Cash Collateral Account to cover any contingent Obligation then outstanding,
including, but not limited to, an amount equal to 110% of the face amount of any outstanding
Letters of Credit, Bankers Acceptances, Steamship Guarantees and Airway Releases. All of the
Agent’s and the Lenders’ rights, liens and security interests granted pursuant to the Loan
Documents shall continue after any termination of this Financing Agreement until all Obligations
have been fully and finally paid and satisfied.
SECTION 12. MISCELLANEOUS
12.1. Waivers. The Companies hereby waive diligence, demand, presentment, protest and
any notices thereof as well as notices of nonpayment, intent to accelerate and acceleration.
Subject to the provisions of Section 14.10 hereof that expressly relate to waivers
requiring the approval of all Lenders, no waiver of an Event of Default shall be effective unless
such waiver is in writing and signed by the Agent and the Required Lenders. No delay or failure of
the Agent or the Lenders to exercise any right or remedy hereunder, whether before or after the
happening of any Event of Default, shall impair any such right or remedy, or shall operate as a
waiver of
72
such right or remedy, or as a waiver of such Event of Default. A waiver on any occasion shall
not be construed as a bar to or waiver of any right or remedy on any future occasion. No single or
partial exercise by the Agent or the Lenders of any right or remedy precludes any other or further
exercise thereof, or precludes any other right or remedy.
12.2. Entire Agreement; Amendments. This Financing Agreement and the other Loan
Documents: (a) constitute the entire agreement among the Companies, the Agent and/or the Lenders;
(b) supersede any prior agreements (other than the Original Financing Agreement and the Loan
Documents as defined therein, except to the extent each has been amended and restated as
contemplated hereunder); (c) subject to the provisions of Section 14.10 hereof that relate
to matters subject to the approval of all Lenders, may be amended only by a writing signed by the
Companies, the Agent and the Required Lenders; and (d) shall bind and benefit the Companies, the
Agent, the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns. Should the provisions of any other
Loan Document conflict with the provisions of this Financing Agreement, the provisions of this
Financing Agreement shall apply and govern.
12.3. Usury Limit. In no event shall the Companies, upon demand by the Agent for
payment of any indebtedness relating hereto, by acceleration of the maturity thereof, or otherwise,
be obligated to pay interest and fees in excess of the amount permitted by law. Regardless of any
provision herein or in any agreement made in connection herewith, the Agent and the Lenders shall
never be entitled to receive, charge or apply, as interest on any indebtedness relating hereto, any
amount in excess of the maximum amount of interest permissible under applicable law. If the Agent
or the Lenders ever receive, collect or apply any such excess, it shall be deemed a partial
repayment of principal and treated as such. If as a result, the entire principal amount of the
Obligations is paid in full, any remaining excess shall be refunded to the Companies. This
Section 12.3 shall control every other provision of the Financing Agreement, the other Loan
Documents and any other agreement made in connection herewith.
12.4. Severability. If any provision hereof or of any other Loan Document is held to
be illegal or unenforceable, such provision shall be fully severable, and the remaining provisions
of the applicable agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by such
provision’s severance. Furthermore, in lieu of any such provision, there shall be added
automatically as a part of the applicable agreement a legal and enforceable provision as similar in
terms to the severed provision as may be possible.
12.5. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL; SERVICE OF PROCESS. EACH COMPANY, THE AGENT AND THE
LENDERS EACH HEREBY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF
OR RELATING TO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREUNDER. EACH COMPANY HEREBY
IRREVOCABLY WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF PROCESS AND CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS BY CERTIFIED OR
REGISTERED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED. IN NO EVENT WILL THE AGENT OR THE LENDERS BE LIABLE FOR
LOST PROFITS OR OTHER SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.
73
12.6. Notices. Except as otherwise herein provided, any notice or other
communication required hereunder shall be in writing (messages sent by e-mail or other electronic
transmission (other than by telecopier) shall not constitute a writing, however any signature on a
document or other writing that is transmitted by e-mail or telecopier shall constitute a valid
signature for purposes hereof), and shall be deemed to have been validly served, given or delivered

12.7. Joint and Several Liability.
(a) Joint and Several Liability. All Revolving Loans made to the Companies shall be deemed
jointly funded to, and received by, the Companies. Each Company jointly and severally agrees to
pay, and shall be jointly and severally liable for the payment and performance of, all Obligations.
Each Company acknowledges and agrees that the joint and several liability of the Companies is
provided as an inducement to the Agent and the Lenders to provide loans and other financial
accommodations to the Companies, and that each such loan or other financial accommodation shall be
deemed to have been done or extended by the Agent and the Lenders in consideration of, and in
reliance upon, the joint and several liability of the Companies. The joint and several liability of
each Company hereunder is absolute, unconditional and continuing, regardless of the validity or
enforceability of any of the Obligations, or the fact that a security interest or lien in any
Collateral may not be enforceable or subject to equities or defenses or prior claims in favor of
others, or may be invalid or defective in any way and for any reason. Each Company hereby waives:
(i) all notices to which such Company may be entitled as a co-obligor with respect to the
Obligations, including, without limitation, notice of (x) acceptance of this Financing Agreement,
(y) the making of loans or other financial accommodations under this Financing Agreement, or the
creation or existence of the Obligations, and (z) presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest
and notice of non-payment; and (ii) all defenses based on (w) any modification (or series of
modifications) of this Financing Agreement or the other Loan Documents that may create a
substituted contract, or that may fundamentally alter the risks imposed on such Company hereunder,
(x) the release of any other Company from its duties this Financing Agreement or the other Loan
Documents, or the extension of the time of performance of any other Company’s duties hereunder or
thereunder, (y) the taking, releasing, impairment or abandonment of any Collateral, or the
settlement, release or
compromise of the Obligations or any other Company’s or Guarantor’s liabilities with respect
to all or any portion of the Obligations, or (z) any other act (or any failure to act) that
fundamentally alters the risks imposed on such Company by virtue of its joint and several liability
hereunder. It is the intent of each Company by this paragraph to waive any and all suretyship
defenses available to such Company with respect to the Obligations, whether or not specifically
enumerated above.
(b) Subrogation and Contribution Rights. Each Company hereby agrees that until the full and
final payment and satisfaction of the Obligations and the expiration and termination of the
Commitments of the Lenders under this Financing Agreement, such Company will not exercise any
subrogation, contribution or other right or remedy against any other Company or any security for
any of the Obligations arising by reason of such Company’s performance or satisfaction of its joint
and several liability hereunder. In addition, each Company agrees that (i) such Company’s right to
receive any payment of amounts due with respect to such subrogation, contribution or other rights
is subordinated to the full and final payment and satisfaction of the Obligations, and (ii) such
Company agrees not to demand, xxx for or otherwise attempt to collect any such payment until the
full and final payment and satisfaction of the Obligations and the expiration and termination of
the Commitments of the Lenders under this Financing Agreement.
75
12.8. CHOICE OF LAW. THE VALIDITY, INTERPRETATION AND ENFORCEMENT OF THIS
FINANCING AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW
YORK, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT INCLUDES AN EXPRESS ELECTION TO BE GOVERNED
BY THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION.
SECTION 13. AGREEMENTS REGARDING THE LENDERS
13.1. Copies of Statements and Financial Information. The Agent shall forward to each
Lender a copy of the monthly loan account statement delivered by the Agent to the Companies. In
addition, the Agent agrees to provide the Lenders with copies of all financial statements,
projections and business plans of the Companies and the Guarantors that the Agent receives from the
Companies or their advisors from time to time, without any duty to confirm or verify that such
information is true, correct or complete.
13.2. Payments of Principal, Interest and Fees. After the Agent’s receipt of, or
charging of, any interest and fees earned under this Financing Agreement, the Agent agrees to remit
promptly to the Lenders its respective Pro Rata Percentages of:
(a) fees payable by the Companies hereunder, provided that (i) the Lenders shall not
share the fees set forth in Sections 8.7 or 8.8 of this Financing
Agreement, and (ii) each of the Lenders shall share in the fees payable under the Fee Letter in
accordance with their respective express agreements with the Agent; and
(b) interest paid on the outstanding principal amount of Revolving Loans, calculated based on
the outstanding amount of Revolving Loans advanced by each of the Lenders as of each Settlement
Date during the period for which interest is paid.
13.3. Defaulting Lender. In the event that any Lender fails to make available to the
Agent such Lender’s applicable Pro Rata Percentage of any borrowing by the Companies on the
Settlement Date in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.1(d) hereof, and the
Companies do not repay to the Agent such Lender’s applicable Pro Rata Percentage of the borrowing
within one (1) Business Day of such Settlement Date, the Agent shall have the right to recover such
Lender’s applicable Pro Rata Percentage of the borrowing directly from such Lender, together with
interest thereon from the Settlement Date at the rate per annum applicable to such borrowing. In
addition, until the Agent recovers such amount, (x) such Lender shall not be entitled to receive
any payments under Section 13.2
hereof, and (y) for purposes of voting on or consenting to other matters with respect to this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents, such Lender’s Commitment shall be deemed to be zero and such
Lender shall not be considered to be a Lender.
13.4. Participations and Assignments.
(a) Participations. Upon five (5) days notice to Agent, the Lenders may sell to one or more
Eligible Assignees, participations in the loans and other extensions of credit made and to be made
to the Companies hereunder. The Companies acknowledge that in selling such participations, the
Lenders may grant to participants certain rights to consent to waivers, amendments and other
actions with respect to this Financing Agreement, provided that the consent of any
participant shall be limited solely to matters as to which all Lenders must consent
76
under Section 14.10 hereof. Except for the consent rights set forth above, no
participant shall have any rights as a Lender hereunder, and notwithstanding the sale of any
participation by a Lender, such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto
for the performance of such Lender’s obligations hereunder, and the Companies, the Agent and the
other Lenders may continue to deal solely with such Lender with respect to all matters relating to
this Financing Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. In addition, all amounts payable
under this Financing Agreement to a Lender which sells a participation in accordance with this
paragraph shall continue to be paid directly to such Lender.
(b) Assignments. Upon five (5) days notice to Agent, the Lenders may assign all or any portion
of their respective rights and obligations under this Financing Agreement to Eligible Assignees,
provided that (i) the principal amount of loans assigned to any institution shall not be
less than $5,000,000, and (ii) the Companies shall pay to the Agent an assignment processing and
recording fee of Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000.00) for the Agent’s own account. Each assignment of
a Commitment hereunder must be made pursuant to an Assignment and Transfer Agreement. From and
after the effective date of an Assignment and Transfer Agreement, (i) the assignee thereunder shall
become a party to this Financing Agreement and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder
have been assigned to such assignee pursuant to such assignment, shall have all rights and
obligations of a Lender hereunder, and (ii) the assigning Lender, to the extent that rights and
obligations hereunder have been assigned by such Lender pursuant to such assignment, shall
relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this Financing Agreement.
(c) Cooperation of Companies and Guarantors. If necessary, the Companies and the Guarantors
agree to (i) execute any documents (including new Promissory Notes) reasonably required to
effectuate and acknowledge each assignment of a Commitment made pursuant to an Assignment and
Transfer Agreement, (ii) make the Companies’ management available to meet with the Agent and
prospective participants and assignees of Commitments and (iii) assist the Agent or the Lenders in
the preparation of information relating to the financial affairs of the Companies and the
Guarantors as any prospective participant or assignee of a Commitment reasonably may request.
Subject to the provisions of Section 13.7, the Companies authorize each Lender to disclose
to any prospective participant or assignee of a Commitment, any and all information in such
Lender’s possession concerning the Companies, the Guarantors and their respective financial affairs
which has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of the Companies and the Guarantors
pursuant to this Financing Agreement, or which has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of
the Companies and the Guarantors in connection with such Lender’s credit evaluation of the
Companies and the Guarantors prior to entering into this Financing Agreement.
13.5. Sharing of Liabilities. In the event that the Agent, the Lenders or any of them
is sued or threatened with a suit, action or claim by the Companies, or any of one of them, or any
of the Guarantors, or by a creditor, committee of creditors, trustee, receiver, liquidator,
custodian, administrator or other similar official acting for or on behalf of the Companies (or any
of them) or any of the Guarantors, on account of (a) any preference, fraudulent
conveyance or other voidable transfer alleged to have occurred or been received as a result of
the operation of this Financing Agreement, any of the Loan Documents or the transactions
contemplated hereby, or (b) any lender liability theory based on any action taken or not taken by
such person in
77
connection with this Financing Agreement, any of the Loan Documents or the transactions
contemplated hereby, any money paid in satisfaction or compromise of such suit, action, claim or
demand, and any expenses, costs and attorneys’ fees paid or incurred in connection therewith
(whether by the Agent, the Lenders or any of them), shall be shared proportionately by the Lenders
according to their respective Pro Rata Percentages, except to the extent that such person’s own
gross negligence or willful misconduct directly gave rise to such suit, action or claim. In
addition, any reasonable costs, expenses, fees or disbursements incurred in good faith by agents or
attorneys retained by the Agent to collect the Obligations or enforce any rights in the Collateral,
including enforcing, preserving or maintaining rights under this Financing Agreement and other Loan
Documents, shall be shared among the Lenders according to their respective Pro Rata Percentages to
the extent not reimbursed by the Companies or from the Proceeds of Collateral. The provisions of
this Section 13.5 shall not apply to any suits, actions, proceedings or claims that (a) are
filed or asserted prior to the Closing Date or (b) are based on transactions, actions or omissions
occurring prior to the date of this Financing Agreement.
13.6. Exercise of Setoff Rights. The Companies authorize each Lender, and each Lender
shall have the right, after the occurrence of an Event of Default, without notice, to set-off and
apply against any and all property or assets of any Company or any Guarantor held by, or in the
possession of such Lender, any of the Obligations owed to such Lender. Promptly after the exercise
of any right to set-off, the Lender exercising such right irrevocably agrees to purchase for cash
(and the other Lenders irrevocably agree to sell) participation interests in each other Lender’s
outstanding Revolving Loans as would be necessary to cause such Lender to share the amount of the
property set- off with the other Lenders based on each Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage. The Companies
agree, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that any Lender also may exercise its right to
set-off with respect to amounts in excess of such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of the Obligations
then outstanding, and may purchase participation interests in the amounts so set-off from the other
Lenders, and upon doing so shall deliver such excess to Agent, for distribution to the other
Lenders in settlement of the participation purchases described above in this Section 13.6.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Lender hereby agrees with each other Lender that no Lender
shall independently take any action to enforce or protect its rights arising out of this Financing
Agreement or any other Loan Document without first obtaining the prior written consent of the Agent
or the Required Lenders, it being the intent of the Lenders that any such action shall be taken in
concert and at the direction of the Agent or the Required Lenders; provided,
however, that each Lender may, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event
of Default (and upon prior written notice to Agent) exercise its right of setoff with respect to
the Companies, so long as the benefits of such setoff are shared on a pro rata
basis with the other Lenders as required pursuant to this Section 13.6.
13.7. Confidentiality. For the purposes of this Section 13.7,
“Confidential Information” means all financial projections and all other information
delivered to the Agent or any Lender by or on behalf of the Companies or any of the Guarantors in
connection with the transactions contemplated by or otherwise pursuant to this Financing Agreement,
provided that such term does not include information that (a) was publicly known or
otherwise known to the Agent or any of the Lenders prior to the time of such disclosure, (b)
subsequently becomes publicly known through no act or omission by the Agent or the Lenders or any
person acting on their behalf, (c) otherwise becomes known to the Agent or the Lenders other than
through disclosure by the Companies or any of the Guarantors or (d) constitutes financial
statements
78
delivered under Section 7.1(h) that are otherwise publicly available. The Agent and
the Lenders will maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Information in accordance with
commercially reasonable procedures adopted by the Agent and the Lenders in good faith to protect
confidential information of third parties delivered to them, provided that the Agent and
the Lenders may deliver or disclose Confidential Information to:
(a) their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys and affiliates who are
advised to hold confidential the Confidential Information substantially in accordance with the
terms of this Section 13.7 (to the extent such disclosure reasonably relates to the
administration of the Line of Credit);
(b) their respective financial advisors and other professional advisors who are advised to
hold confidential the Confidential Information substantially in accordance with the terms of this
Section 13.7;
(c) any other Lender;
(d) a commercial bank, commercial finance lender or other financial institution to which the
Agent or a Lender sells or offers to sell a portion of their rights and obligations under this
Financing Agreement or any participation therein, provided that so long as no Event of Default
shall have occurred and remain outstanding, such entity agrees in writing prior to their receipt of
such Confidential Information to be bound by the provisions of this Section 13.7; or
(e) any other person or entity (including bank auditors and other regulatory officials) to
which such delivery or disclosure may be necessary or appropriate (i) to comply with any applicable
law, rule, regulation or order, or any request of a regulatory authority having jurisdiction over
the Agent or any Lender, (ii) in response to any subpoena or other legal process, (iii) in
connection with any litigation to which the Agent or a Lender is a party or (iv) if an Event of
Default shall have occurred and remain outstanding, to the extent the Agent may reasonably
determine such delivery and disclosure to be necessary or appropriate in the enforcement or for the
protection of the rights and remedies under this Financing Agreement.
Each Lender becoming a Lender subsequent to the initial execution and delivery of this Financing
Agreement, by its execution and delivery of an Assignment and Transfer Agreement, will be deemed to
have agreed to be bound by, and to be entitled to the benefits of, this Section 13.7.
13.8. Register.
(a) Each Company hereby authorizes the Agent, solely for the purpose of this Section
13.8(a), to maintain a register (the “Register”) on which the Agent will record each
Lender’s loans and other extensions of credit made to the Company hereunder and each repayment in
respect of such loans and other extensions of credit of each Lender and annexed to which the Agent
shall retain a copy of each Assignment and Transfer Agreement. Failure to make any recordation, or
any error in such recordation, shall not affect the Company’s obligations in respect of such loans
and other extensions of credit. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive (provided, however,
that any failure to make any recordation, or any error in
79
such recordation, shall be corrected by the Agent upon Agent’s actual notice or discovery
thereof), and the Companies, the Agent and the Lenders shall treat each person in whose name a loan
and other extension of credit is registered as the owner thereof for all purposes of this
Agreement, notwithstanding notice or any provision herein to
the contrary. A Lender’s loans and other extensions of credit may be assigned or otherwise
transferred in whole or in part only by registration of such assignment or transfer in the
Register. Any assignment or transfer of a Lender’s loan and other extensions of credit shall be
registered in the Register only upon delivery to the Agent of the applicable Assignment and
Transfer Agreement. No assignment or transfer of a Lender’s loan and other extensions of credit
shall be effective unless such assignment or transfer shall have been recorded in the Register by
the Agent as provided in this Section 13.8(a).
(b) Each Lender that sells a participation in the loans and other extensions of credit made to
the Companies hereunder shall, solely for the purpose of this Section 13.8(b), record in
book entries maintained by such Lender the name and the amount of the participation of each
participant entitled to receive payments in respect of such participation.
SECTION 14. AGENCY
14.1. Appointment of Agent; Powers. Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and
appoints CIT to act as the Agent for such Lender under this Financing Agreement and the other Loan
Documents, and irrevocably authorizes CIT, as Agent for such Lender, to take such action on its
behalf under the provisions of this Financing 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 Financing Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are
reasonably incidental thereto. In performing its functions under this Financing Agreement, the
Agent is acting solely as an agent of the Lenders, and the Agent does not assume, and shall not be
deemed to have assumed, an agency or other fiduciary relationship with the Companies or any Lender.
The Agent shall not have any (a) duty, responsibility, obligation or liability to any Lender,
except for those duties, responsibilities, obligations and liabilities expressly set forth in this
Financing Agreement, or (b) fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants,
functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Financing
Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or otherwise exist against the Agent.
14.2. Delegation of Agent’s Duties. The Agent may execute any of its duties under this
Financing Agreement and all ancillary documents by or through agents or attorneys, and shall be
entitled to the advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties.
14.3. Disclaimer of Agent’s Liabilities. Neither the Agent nor any of its officers,
directors, employees, agents, or attorneys shall be liable to any Lender for any action lawfully
taken or not taken by the Agent or such person under or in connection with the Financing Agreement
and the other Loan Documents (except for the Agent’s or such person’s gross negligence or willful
misconduct). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent shall not be liable to the
Lenders for (i) any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by the Companies or the
Guarantors or any officer thereof contained in (x) this Financing Agreement, (y) any other Loan
Document or (z) any certificate, report, audit, statement or other
80
document referred to or provided for in this Financing Agreement or received by the Agent
under or in connection with this Financing Agreement, (ii) the value, validity, effectiveness,
enforceability or sufficiency of this Financing Agreement, the other Loan Documents or the security
interests in the Collateral of the Agent for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders, (iii) any
failure of the Companies or the Guarantors to perform their respective obligations under this
Financing Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (iv) any loss or depreciation in the value of,
delay in collecting the Proceeds of, or failure to realize on, any Collateral, (v) the Agent’s
delay in the collection of the Obligations or enforcing the Agent’s rights against the Companies or
the Guarantors, or the granting of indulgences or extensions to the Companies, any of the
Guarantors or any account debtor of the Companies, or (vi) any mistake, omission or error in
judgment in passing upon or accepting any Collateral. In addition, the Agent shall have no duty or
responsibility to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the terms,
conditions,
covenants or other agreements of the Companies or the Guarantors contained in this Financing
Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or to inspect, verify, examine or audit the assets, books or
records of the Companies or the Guarantors at any time.
14.4. Reliance and Action by Agent. The Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be
fully protected in relying, upon legal counsel, independent public accountants and experts selected
by Agent, and shall not be liable to the Lenders for any action taken or not taken in good faith
based upon the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts. In addition, the Agent shall be
entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution,
notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement,
order or other document believed by the Agent in good faith to be genuine and correct, and to have
been signed, sent or made by the proper person or persons. The Agent shall be fully justified in
taking or refusing to take any action under this Financing Agreement and the other Loan Documents
unless the Agent (a) receives the advice or consent of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as the
case may be, in a manner that the Agent deems appropriate, or (b) is indemnified by the Lenders to
the Agent’s satisfaction against any and all liability, cost and expense which may be incurred by
the Agent by reason of taking or refusing to take any such action. The Agent shall in all cases be
fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Financing Agreement and the
other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of all Lenders or the Required Lenders, as the
case may be, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be
binding upon all Lenders.
14.5. Events of Default. The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of
the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder (other than a Default or Event of
Default with respect to payments of principal and/or interest with respect to the Revolving Loans)
unless the Agent has received notice from the Companies or a Lender describing such Default or
Event of Default with specificity. In the event that the Agent receives such a notice, the Agent
shall promptly give notice thereof to all Lenders. The Agent shall take such action with respect to
such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Lenders or Required
Lenders, as the case may be, provided that (a) if appropriate, the Agent may require
indemnification from the Lenders under Section 14.4 prior to taking such action, (b) under
no circumstances shall the Agent have an obligation to take any action that the Agent believes in
good faith would violate any law or any provision of this Financing Agreement or the other Loan
Documents, and (c) unless and until the Agent shall have received direction from the Lenders or the
Required Lenders, as the case may be, the Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such
action or refrain from taking action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as the Agent
shall deem advisable and in the best interests of the Lenders.
81
14.6. Lenders’ Due Diligence. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the
Agent, nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents, has made any representation or
warranty to such Lender regarding the transactions contemplated by this Financing Agreement or the
financial condition of the Companies or the Guarantors, and such Lender agrees that no action taken
by the Agent hereafter, including any review of the business or financial affairs of the Companies
or the Guarantors, shall be deemed to constitute a representation or warranty by the Agent to any
Lender. Each Lender also acknowledges that such Lender has, independently and without reliance upon
the Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as such Lender has deemed
appropriate, made its own credit analysis, appraisal of and investigation into the business,
operations, property, financial condition and creditworthiness of the Companies and the Guarantors,
and made its own decision to enter into this Financing Agreement. Each Lender agrees, independently
and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information
as such Lender shall deem appropriate at the time, (a) to continue to make its own credit analyses
and appraisals in deciding whether to take or not take action under this Financing Agreement and
(b) to make such investigations as such Lender deems necessary to inform itself as to the business,
operations, property, financial condition and creditworthiness of the Companies and the Guarantors.
14.7. Right to Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Agent and the
Agent’s officers, directors, employees, advisors and agents (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) (to
the extent not reimbursed by the Companies and without limiting the obligation of the Companies to
do so), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions,
judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time be
imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Agent Parties in any way relating to or arising out
of (a) this Financing Agreement or any other Loan Document, (b) the transactions contemplated
hereby or (c) any action taken or not taken by the Agent Parties under or in connection with any of
the foregoing, provided that no Lender shall be liable to an Agent Party for the payment of any
portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
costs, expenses or disbursements resulting solely from such Agent Party’s gross negligence or
willful misconduct.
14.8. Other Transactions. The Agent and any Lender may make loans to and generally
engage in any kind of business with the Companies, as though the Agent or such Lender were not the
Agent or a Lender hereunder. With respect to loans made by the Agent under this Financing Agreement
as a Lender, the Agent shall have the same rights and powers, duties and liabilities under this
Financing Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any other Lender, and may exercise the same as
though it was not the Agent, and the term “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include the Agent in its
individual capacity as such.
14.9. Resignation of Agent. The Agent may resign as the Agent upon 30 days notice to
the Lenders, and such resignation shall be effective on the earlier of (a) the appointment of a
successor Agent by the Lenders or (b) the date on which such 30-day period expires. If the Agent
provides the Lenders with notice of its intention to resign as Agent, the Lenders agree to appoint
a successor to the Agent as promptly as possible thereafter, whereupon such successor
82
shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Agent, and the term “Agent” shall mean
such successor effective upon its appointment, which such appointment shall be subject to the
approval of the Required Lenders. Upon the effective date of an Agent’s resignation, such Agent’s
rights, powers and duties as Agent hereunder immediately shall terminate, without any other or
further act or deed on the part of such former Agent or any of the parties to this Financing
Agreement. After an Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Section 14 shall continue
to inure to such Agent’s benefit as to any actions taken or not taken by such Agent while acting as
the Agent.
14.10. Voting Rights; Agent’s Discretionary Rights. Notwithstanding anything contained
in this Financing Agreement to the contrary, without the prior written consent of all Lenders, the
Agent will not agree to:
(a) amend or waive the Companies’ compliance with any term or provision of this Financing
Agreement, if the effect of such amendment or waiver would be to (i) increase the Revolving Line of
Credit or the Line of Credit, (ii) reduce (or forgive) the principal of, or rate of interest on,
the Revolving Loans, (iii) reduce or waive the payment of any fee in which all Lenders share
hereunder or (iv) extend the maturity date of any of the Obligations or the date fixed for payment
of any installment thereof;
(b) alter or amend (i) this Section 14.10, (ii) the definitions of “Eligible
Accounts Receivable”, “Eligible Inventory”, “Collateral”, “Required
Lenders” or “Supplemental Amount” or (iii) the advance rates set forth in clause (a) of
the definition of Borrowing Base to increase such advance rates to a level greater than the level
in effect on the Closing Date;
(c) except as otherwise expressly permitted or required hereunder, release any Collateral
having a value (as determined by the Agent in its reasonable business judgment) of more than
$250,000 in any fiscal year of the Companies;
(d) knowingly make any Revolving Loan to the Companies if after giving effect thereto the
principal amount of all outstanding Revolving Loans plus the undrawn amount of all outstanding
Letters of Credit, Bankers Acceptances, Steamship Guarantees and/or Airway Releases would exceed
the lesser of (i) the Revolving Line of Credit or (ii) one hundred ten percent (110%) of the
Borrowing Base of the Companies; provided that in no event shall the Agent continue to knowingly
make Overadvances under this Section 14.10(d) for a period in excess of ninety (90) consecutive
days without the consent of all Lenders, and provided further that after the occurrence of an Event
of Default, the Agent in its sole discretion shall have the right to make Overadvances in excess of
the limitation set forth in clause (ii) above in order to preserve, protect and realize upon the
Collateral; or
(e) release any of the Guarantors from any of their Obligations under any Guaranty.
In all other respects the Agent is authorized to take or to refrain from taking any action
which the Agent, in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, deems to be advisable and in
the best interest of the Lenders, unless this Financing Agreement specifically requires the
Companies or the Agent to obtain the consent of, or act at the direction of, the Required Lenders.
83
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, and notwithstanding any other
provision of this Financing Agreement to the contrary, the Agent shall have the right in its sole
discretion to (i) determine whether the requirements for eligibility set forth in the definitions
of “Eligible Accounts Receivable” and “Eligible Inventory” are satisfied, (ii)
establish, adjust and release the amount of reserves provided for in the definitions of
“Availability Reserve”, “Eligible Accounts Receivable” and “Eligible
Inventory”, (iii) make Overadvances in accordance with clause (d) of this Section
14.10, (iv) release any Collateral having a value (as determined by the Agent in its reasonable
business judgment) of up to $250,000 in each fiscal year of the Companies, and (v) amend any
provision of this Financing Agreement or the other Loan Documents in order to cure any error,
ambiguity, defect or inconsistency set forth therein. Except as provided in the foregoing sentence,
and as provided in clauses (a) through (e) of this Section 14.10, all waivers of any Events of
Default (other than with respect to the provisions of Section 7.2(g) and (h) which may be waived by
the Agent in its discretion, but any modifications and amendments thereto shall require the consent
of the Required Lenders), and all waivers, modifications and amendments to the provisions of
Section 7.3 or Section 7.4 shall require the consent of the Required Lenders. In
the event the Agent terminates this Financing Agreement pursuant to the terms hereof, the Agent
agrees to cease making additional loans or advances upon the effective date of termination, except
for loans or advances which the Agent in its sole discretion determines are reasonably required to
preserve, protect or realize upon the Collateral.
14.11. Deemed Consent. If a Lender’s consent to a waiver amendment or other course of
action is required under the terms of this Financing Agreement and such Lender does not respond to
any request by the Agent for such consent within ten (10) Business Days after the date of such
request (which such request and each consent thereto shall be in writing (including, for purposes
of this Section 14.11, messages sent by e-mail or telecopier)), such failure to respond
shall be deemed a consent to the requested course of action.
14.12. Survival of Agreements of the Lenders. The obligations of the Lenders set forth
in Sections 13.3, 13.5, 13.6, 14.4 and 14.7 hereof shall
survive the termination of this Financing Agreement.

EXHIBIT A
FORM OF ASSIGNMENT AND TRANSFER AGREEMENT
ASSIGNMENT AND TRANSFER AGREEMENT
Reference is made to the Amended and Restated Financing Agreement dated as of April 3, 2008
(as amended, restated supplemented or otherwise modified and in effect from time to time, the
“Financing Agreement”) among G-III Leather Fashions, Inc., a New York corporation
(“G-III”), X. Xxxxx for Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx, Ltd., a New York corporation (“JPMR”), CK
Outerwear, LLC, a New York limited liability company (“CK”), A. Marc & Co., Inc., a New
York corporation (“AMC”) and Xxxxxx & Xxxxxxx Company, Inc., a New York corporation
(“A&S”), and together with G-III, JPMR, CK and AMC, individually, a “Company” and
collectively the “Companies”), the financial institutions from time to time party thereto,
as lenders (collectively, the “Lenders”, and individually, each a “Lender”), and
The CIT Group/Commercial Services, Inc, a New York corporation, as agent for the Lenders (in such
capacity, the “Agent”). Capitalized terms used in this Assignment and Transfer Agreement
(this “Agreement”) and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings given to such terms in
the Financing Agreement. This Agreement, between the Assignor (as defined and set forth on Schedule
1, which is made a part of this Agreement) and the Assignee (as defined and set forth on
Schedule 1) is effective as of Effective Date (as set forth on Schedule 1).
1. The Assignor hereby irrevocably sells and assigns to the Assignee, without recourse to the
Assignor, and the Assignee hereby irrevocably purchases and assumes from the Assignor, without
recourse to the Assignor, as of the Effective Date, an undivided interest (the “Assigned
Interest”) in and to all of the Assignor’s rights and obligations under the Financing Agreement
respecting those, and only those, portions of the financing facilities contained in the Financing
Agreement as are set forth on Schedule 1 (collectively, the “Assigned Facilities”),
in an amount for each of the Assigned Facilities as set forth on Schedule 1.
2. The Assignor: (i) makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with
respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with the
Financing Agreement or any other instrument, document or agreement executed or delivered in
connection therewith (collectively the “Loan Documents”), or the execution, legality,
validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of the Financing Agreement, any
Collateral thereunder or any of the other Loan Documents, other than a representation and warranty
that the Assignor is the legal and beneficial owner of the Assigned Interest and that the Assigned
Interest is free and clear of any adverse claim; and (ii) makes no representation or warranty and
assumes no responsibility with respect to (x) the financial condition of the Companies or any
Guarantor, or (y) the performance or observance by the Companies or any Guarantor of any of their
respective obligations under the Financing Agreement or any of the Loan Documents.
3. The Assignee (i) represents and warrants that it is legally authorized to enter into this
Agreement, (ii) confirms that it has received a copy of the Financing Agreement as amended through
the Effective Date, together with the copies of the most recent financial statements of the
Companies, and such other documents and information as the Assignee has deemed appropriate
to make its own credit analysis, (iii) agrees that the Assignee will, independently and
without reliance upon the Agent, the Assignor or any other Lender and based on such documents and
information as the Assignee shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit
decisions in taking or not taking action under the Financing Agreement, (iv) appoints and
authorizes the Agent to take such action as agent on the Assignee’s behalf and to exercise such
powers under the Financing Agreement as are delegated to the Agent by the terms thereof, together
with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, (v) agrees that the Assignee will be bound
by the provisions of the Financing Agreement and will perform in accordance with its terms all the
obligations which by the terms of the Financing Agreement are required to be performed by it as
Lender, and (vi) if the Assignee is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction within the United
States (but is not a corporation), attaches IRS Form W-9 (or a substitute form thereof) to avoid
any back-up withholding and (vii) if the Assignee is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction
outside the United States, attaches the forms prescribed by the IRS certifying as to the Assignee’s
exemption from
United States withholding taxes with respect to all payments to be made to the Assignee under the
Financing Agreement or such other documents as are necessary to indicate that all such payments are
subject to such tax rate reduced by an applicable tax treaty.
4. Following the execution of this Assignment and Transfer Agreement, such agreement will be
delivered to the Agent for acceptance by the Agent, effective as of the Effective Date.
5. Upon such acceptance, from and after the Effective Date, the Agent shall make all payments

(collectively with Borrower, individually and collectively, the “Company”); to secure such
financing, each Company has granted to Agent for the benefit of Lenders a security interest and
lien in the tangible and intangible personal property of such Company, including, without
limitation, goods, inventory, machinery and equipment, together with all additions, substitutions,
replacements and improvements to, and the products and proceeds of the foregoing (collectively, the
“Collateral”); and
WHEREAS, all or a portion of the Collateral may from time to time be located at the
Premises or may become wholly or partially affixed to the Premises;
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of any financial accommodation extended by Agent and/or
Lenders to Company at any time, and other good and valuable consideration the receipt and
sufficiency of which Landlord hereby acknowledges, Landlord hereby agrees as follows:
1. A true and correct copy of the Lease is attached hereto as Exhibit A. The Lease is
in full force and effect and Landlord is not aware of any existing default under the Lease.
2. The Collateral may be stored, utilized and/or installed at the Premises and shall
not be deemed a fixture or part of the real estate but shall at all times be considered personal
property, whether or not any of the Collateral becomes so related to the real estate that an
interest
therein arises under real estate law.
3. Until such time as the obligations of Company to Agent and/or Lenders are paid
in full, Landlord disclaims any interest in the Collateral, and agrees not to distrain or levy
upon any of the Collateral or to assert any claim against the Collateral for any reason.
4. Agent or its representatives may enter upon the Premises at any time to inspect or
remove the Collateral, and may advertise and conduct public auctions or private sales of the
Collateral at the Premises, in each case without liability of Agent to Landlord; provided
however,
that Agent shall promptly repair, at Agent’s expense, any physical damage to the Premises actually
caused by said removal by Agent. Agent shall not be liable for any diminution in value of the
Premises caused by the absence of Collateral actually removed or by any necessity of replacing the
Collateral.
5. Landlord shall not interfere with any sale of the Collateral, by public auction or
otherwise, conducted by or on behalf of Agent on the Premises.
6. Landlord agrees to provide Agent with written notice of any default or claimed
default by Borrower under the Lease, and prior to the termination of the Lease, to permit
Agent
the same opportunity to cure or cause to be cured such default as is granted Borrower under
the
Lease, provided, however that Agent shall have at least ten (10) days following receipt of
said
notice to cure such default. Landlord will permit Agent to remain on the Premises for a period
of up to ninety (90) days following receipt by Agent of written notice from Landlord that
Landlord
is in possession and control of the Premises, has terminated the Lease and is directing
removal of
the Collateral, subject, however, to the payment to Landlord by Lender of the basic rent due
under the Lease for the period of occupancy by Agent, pro-rated on per diem basis determined
on a 30 day month. Agent’s right to occupy the Premises under the preceding sentence shall be
extended for the time period Agent is prohibited from selling the Collateral due to the
imposition
of the automatic stay by the filing of bankruptcy proceedings by or against any Company. Agent
shall not assume nor be liable for any unperformed or unpaid obligations of Borrower under the
Lease.
7. This waiver shall inure to the benefit of Agent, its successors and assigns and
shall be binding upon Landlord, its heirs, assigns, representatives and successors.
8. All notices to Agent hereunder shall be in writing, sent by certified mail, and shall
be addressed to Agent at the following address: 00 Xxxx 00xx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx
Xxxx 00000.
