If the Borrower delivers a Loan Request requesting that the Banks renew the Euro-Rate Option with respect to an outstanding Borrowing Tranche of Revolving Credit Loans denominated in an Optional Currency, the Banks shall be under no obligation to renew such Euro-Rate Option if any Bank delivers to the Administrative Agent a notice by 5:00 p.m., Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time, four (4) Business Days prior to effective date of such renewal that such Bank cannot continue to provide Revolving Credit Loans in such Optional Currency. In the event the Administrative Agent timely receives a notice from a Bank pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent will notify the Borrower no later than 12:00 noon, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time, three (3) Business Days prior to the renewal date that the renewal of such Revolving Credit Loans in such Optional Currency is not then available, and the Administrative

Agent shall promptly thereafter notify the Banks of the same. If the Administrative Agent shall have so notified the Borrower that any such continuation of Optional Currency Loans is not then available, any notice of renewal with respect thereto shall be deemed withdrawn, and such Optional Currency Loans shall be redenominated into Base Rate Loans in Dollars with effect from the last day of the Interest Period with respect to any such Optional Currency Loans. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Banks of any such redenomination, and in such notice, the Administrative Agent will state the aggregate Dollar Equivalent amount of the redenominated Optional Currency Loans as of the Computation Date with respect thereto and such Bank’s Ratable Share thereof.

2.8.4. Requests for Additional Optional Currencies.

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

2.9 Letter of Credit Subfacility.

2.9.1. Issuance of Letters of Credit.

Borrower may request the issuance of (or modification of any issued) letters of credit (each a “Letter of Credit”) on behalf of itself, another Loan Party, or, solely with respect to the RSC Letter of Credit (PNC), RSC, by delivering or having such other Loan Party or RSC, as applicable, deliver to the Administrative Agent a completed application and agreement for letters of credit and such other certificates, documents, agreements including reimbursement agreements and other papers and documentation in such form as the Administrative Agent may specify from time to time by no later than 10:00 a.m., Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time, at least five (5) Business Days, or such shorter period as may be agreed to by the Administrative Agent, in advance of the proposed date of issuance. Each Letter of Credit shall be a Standby Letter of Credit or a Commercial Letter of Credit and may be denominated in either Dollars or an Optional Currency. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and in reliance on the agreements of the other Banks set forth in this Section 2.9 [Letter of Credit Subfacility], the Administrative Agent or any of the Administrative Agent’s Affiliates will issue a Letter of Credit provided that each Letter of Credit shall (A) have a maximum maturity of twelve (12) months from the date of issuance, and (B) in no event expire later than ten (10) Business Days prior to the Expiration Date, provided, further, that a Letter of Credit may expire after the Expiration Date if the Borrower provides cash collateral acceptable to the Administrative Agent

in its sole discretion no later than sixty (60) days prior to the Expiration Date, and providing that in no event shall (i) the Dollar Equivalent amount of Letters of Credit Outstanding exceed, at any one time, Sixty Million and 00/100 Dollars ($60,000,000.00) or (ii) the Dollar Equivalent Revolving Facility Usage exceed, at any one time, the Revolving Credit Commitments. Each Existing Letter of Credit shall be deemed to have been issued hereunder on the Closing Date by PNC Bank as the issuer. Each Existing Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be a Letter of Credit for all purposes of this Agreement.

2.9.2. Letter of Credit Fees.

The Borrower shall pay (on behalf of RSC, in the case of the RSC Letter of Credit (PNC)) in Dollars (i) to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Banks a fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) equal to the Applicable Letter of Credit Fee Percentage (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed), and (ii) to the Administrative Agent for its own account a fronting fee equal to one eighth of one percent (.125%) per annum (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed), which fees shall be computed on the daily average Dollar Equivalent amount of Letters of Credit Outstanding and shall be payable quarterly in arrears commencing with the first day of each April, July, October and January following issuance of each Letter of Credit and on the Expiration Date. The Borrower shall also pay (on behalf of RSC, in the case of the RSC Letter of Credit (PNC)) to the Administrative Agent in Dollars for the Administrative Agent’s sole account the Administrative Agent’s then in effect customary fees and administrative expenses payable with respect to the Letters of Credit as the Administrative Agent may generally charge or incur from time to time in connection with the issuance, maintenance, modification (if any), assignment or transfer (if any), negotiation, and administration of Letters of Credit.

2.9.3. Disbursements, Reimbursement.

2.9.3.1 Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Bank shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Administrative Agent a participation in such Letter of Credit and each drawing thereunder in an amount equal to such Bank’s Ratable Share of the maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit and the amount of such drawing, respectively.

2.9.3.2 In the event of any request for a drawing under a Letter of Credit by the beneficiary or transferee thereof, the Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower (or RSC, in the case of the RSC Letter of Credit (PNC)) thereof. Provided that it shall have received such notice by 10:00 a.m., Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time (any notice received after 10:00 a.m., Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time, on a particular day shall be deemed to have been received by 10:00 a.m., Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time, on the next Business Day), on the applicable Drawing Date, the Borrower (or RSC, in the case of the RSC Letter of Credit (PNC)) shall reimburse (such obligation to reimburse the Administrative Agent shall sometimes be referred to as a “Reimbursement Obligation”) the Administrative Agent in Dollars prior to 12:00 noon, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time, on each date that an amount is paid by the Administrative Agent under any Letter of Credit (each such date, a “Drawing Date”) in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent amount so paid by the Administrative Agent. In the event the Borrower (or

33 RSC, in the case of the RSC Letter of Credit (PNC)) fails to pay the Administrative Agent the full Dollar Equivalent amount of any drawing under any Letter of Credit by 12:00 noon, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time, on the Drawing Date, the Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Bank thereof, and the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested that Revolving Credit Loans be made by the Banks in Dollars under the Base Rate Option to be disbursed on the Drawing Date under such Letter of Credit, subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Revolving Credit Commitment and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 6.2 [Each Additional Loan] other than any notice requirements. Any notice given by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.9.3.2 [Disbursements, Reimbursement] may be oral if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

2.9.3.3 Each Bank shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.9.3.2 [Disbursements, Reimbursement] pay to the Administrative Agent an amount in Dollars in immediately available funds equal to its Ratable Share of the Dollar Equivalent amount of the drawing, whereupon the participating Banks shall (subject to Section 2.9.3.4) each be deemed to have made a Revolving Credit Loan in Dollars under the Base Rate Option to the Borrower in that amount. If any Bank so notified fails to make available in Dollars to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Administrative Agent the amount of such Bank’s Ratable Share of such Dollar Equivalent amount by no later than 2:00 p.m., Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time, on the Drawing Date, then interest shall accrue on such Bank’s obligation to make such payment, from the Drawing Date to the date on which such Bank makes such payment (i) at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate during the first three (3) days following the Drawing Date and (ii) at a rate per annum equal to the rate applicable to Loans under the Revolving Credit Base Rate Option on and after the fourth (4^th) day following the Drawing Date. The Administrative Agent will promptly give notice of the occurrence of the Drawing Date, but failure of the Administrative Agent to give any such notice on the Drawing Date or in sufficient time to enable any Bank to effect such payment on such date shall not relieve such Bank from its obligations to fund under this Section 2.9.3.3 [Disbursements, Reimbursement] upon receipt of such notice.

2.9.3.4 With respect to any unreimbursed drawing that is not converted into Revolving Credit Loans under the Base Rate Option to the Borrower in whole or in part as contemplated by Section 2.9.3.2 [Disbursements, Reimbursement] because of the Borrower’s failure to satisfy the conditions set forth in Section 6.2 [Each Additional Loan or Letter of Credit] other than any notice requirements or for any other reason, the Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the Administrative Agent a borrowing (each a “Letter of Credit Borrowing”) in Dollars in the Dollar Equivalent amount of such drawing. Such Letter of Credit Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the rate per annum applicable to the Revolving Credit Loans under the Base Rate Option. Each Bank’s payment to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.9.3.3 [Disbursements, Reimbursement] shall be deemed to be a payment in respect of its participation in such Letter of Credit Borrowing and shall constitute a “Participation Advance” from such Bank in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.9.3 [Disbursements, Reimbursements].

34

2.9.4. Repayment of Participation Advances.

2.9.4.1 Upon (and only upon) receipt by the Administrative Agent for its account of immediately available funds from the Borrower (i) in reimbursement of any payment made by the Administrative Agent under the Letter of Credit with respect to which any Bank has made a Participation Advance to the Administrative Agent, or (ii) in payment of interest on such a payment made by the Administrative Agent under such a Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent will pay to each Bank, in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent, the amount of such Bank’s Ratable Share of such funds, except the Administrative Agent shall retain the amount of the Ratable Share of such funds of any Bank that did not make a Participation Advance in respect of such payment by Administrative Agent.

2.9.4.2 If the Administrative Agent is required at any time to return to any Loan Party, or to a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian, or any official in any Insolvency Proceeding, any portion of the payments made by any Loan Party to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.9.4.1 [Repayment of Participation Advances] in reimbursement of a payment made under the Letter of Credit or interest or fee thereon, each Bank shall, on demand of the Administrative Agent, forthwith return to the Administrative Agent the amount of its Ratable Share of any amounts so returned by the Administrative Agent plus interest thereon from the date such demand is made to the date such amounts are returned by such Bank to the Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate in effect from time to time.

2.9.5. Documentation.

Each Loan Party (and RSC, in the case of the RSC Letter of Credit (PNC)) agrees to be bound by the terms of the Administrative Agent’s application and agreement for letters of credit and the Administrative Agent’s written regulations and customary practices relating to letters of credit, though such interpretation may be different from such Loan Party’s (or RSC’s, in the case of the RSC Letter of Credit (PNC)) own. In the event of a conflict between such application or agreement and this Agreement, this Agreement shall govern. It is understood and agreed that, except in the case of gross negligence or willful misconduct, the Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any error, negligence and/or mistakes, whether of omission or commission, in following any Loan Party’s (or RSC’s, in the case of the RSC Letter of Credit (PNC)) instructions or those contained in the Letters of Credit or any modifications, amendments or supplements thereto.

2.9.6. Determinations to Honor Drawing Requests.

In determining whether to honor any request for drawing under any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof, the Administrative Agent shall be responsible only to determine that the documents and certificates required to be delivered under such Letter of Credit have been delivered and that they comply on their face with the requirements of such Letter of Credit.

2.9.7. Nature of Participation and Reimbursement Obligations.

Each Bank’s obligation in accordance with this Agreement to make the Revolving Credit Loans or Participation Advances, as contemplated by Section 2.9.3 [Disbursements, Reimbursement], as a result of a drawing under a Letter of Credit, and the Obligations of the Borrower (or RSC, in the case of the RSC Letter of Credit (PNC)) to reimburse the Administrative Agent upon a draw under a Letter of Credit, shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.9 [Letter of Credit Subfacility] under all circumstances, including the following circumstances:

(iii) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit;

(iv) any claim of breach of warranty that might be made by any Loan Party, RSC or any Bank against any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit, or the existence of any claim, set-off, recoupment, counterclaim, crossclaim, defense or other right which any Loan Party, RSC or any Bank may have at any time against a beneficiary, successor beneficiary any transferee or assignee of any Letter of Credit or the proceeds thereof (or any Persons for whom any such transferee may be acting), the Administrative Agent or its Affiliates or any Bank or any other Person or, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transaction (including any underlying transaction between any Loan Party, RSC or Subsidiaries of a Loan Party and the beneficiary for which any Letter of Credit was procured);

(v) the lack of power or authority of any signer of (or any defect in or forgery of any signature or endorsement on) or the form of or lack of validity, sufficiency, accuracy, enforceability or genuineness of any draft, demand, instrument, certificate or other document presented under or in connection with any Letter of Credit, or any fraud or alleged fraud in connection with any Letter of Credit, or the transport of any property or provisions of services relating to a Letter of Credit, in each case even if the Administrative Agent has been notified thereof;

(vi) payment by the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates under any Letter of Credit against presentation of a demand, draft or certificate or other document which does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit;

36 (vii) the solvency of, or any acts of omissions by, any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit, or any other Person having a role in any transaction or obligation relating to a Letter of Credit, or the existence, nature, quality, quantity, condition, value or other characteristic of any property or services relating to a Letter of Credit;

(viii) any failure by the Administrative Agent to issue any Letter of Credit in the form requested by any Loan Party (or RSC, in the case of the RSC Letter of Credit (PNC)), unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice from such Loan Party (or RSC, in the case of the RSC Letter of Credit (PNC)) of such failure within six (6) Business Days after the Administrative Agent shall have furnished such Loan Party or RSC, as applicable, a copy of such Letter of Credit and such error is material and no drawing has been made thereon prior to receipt of such notice;

2.9.8. Indemnity.

In addition to amounts payable as provided in Section 9.5 [Reimbursement and Indemnification of Administrative Agent by Loan Parties], the Loan Parties (and RSC, in the case of the RSC Letter of Credit (PNC)) hereby agree to protect, indemnify, pay and save harmless the Administrative Agent and any of its Affiliates that has issued a Letter of Credit from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, taxes, penalties, interest, judgments, losses, costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of counsel and allocated costs of internal counsel) which the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of the issuance of any Letter of Credit, other than as a result of (A) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or (B) the wrongful dishonor by the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates of a proper demand for payment made under any Letter of Credit, except if such dishonor resulted from any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or

future de jure or de facto government or governmental authority (all such acts or omissions herein called “Governmental Acts”).

2.9.9. Liability for Acts and Omissions.

As between any Loan Party (or RSC, in the case of the RSC Letter of Credit (PNC)) and the Administrative Agent, or any of its Affiliates, such Loan Party (or RSC, in the case of the RSC Letter of Credit (PNC)) assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit by, the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for any of the following including any losses or damages to any Loan Party (or RSC, in the case of the RSC Letter of Credit (PNC)) or other Person or property relating therefrom: (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for an issuance of any such Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged (even if the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates shall have been notified thereof); (ii) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any such Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) the failure of the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit, or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred, to comply fully with any conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit or any other claim of any Loan Party (or RSC, in the case of the RSC Letter of Credit (PNC)) against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit, or any such transferee, or any dispute between or among any Loan Party (or RSC, in the case of the RSC Letter of Credit (PNC)) and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any such transferee; (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, electronic mail, cable, telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (v) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any such Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; (vii) the misapplication by the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; or (viii) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates, as applicable, including any Governmental Acts, and none of the above shall affect or impair, or prevent the vesting of, any of the Administrative Agent’s or any of its Affiliate’s rights or powers hereunder. Nothing in the preceding sentence shall relieve the Administrative Agent from liability for the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with actions or omissions described in such clauses (i) through (viii) of such sentence. In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates be liable to any Loan Party or RSC for any indirect, consequential, incidental, punitive, exemplary or special damages or expenses (including without limitation attorneys’ fees), or for any damages resulting from any change in the value of any property relating to a Letter of Credit.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent and each of its Affiliates (i) may rely on any oral or other communication believed in good faith by the Administrative Agent or such Affiliate to have been authorized or given by or on behalf of the applicant Loan Party (or RSC, in the case of the RSC Letter of Credit (PNC)) for a Letter of

Credit, (ii) may honor any presentation if the documents presented appear on their face substantially to comply with the terms and conditions of the relevant Letter of Credit; (iii) may honor a previously dishonored presentation under a Letter of Credit, whether such dishonor was pursuant to a court order, to settle or compromise any claim of wrongful dishonor, or otherwise, and shall be entitled to reimbursement to the same extent as if such presentation had initially been honored, together with any interest paid by the Administrative Agent or its Affiliate; (iv) may honor any drawing that is payable upon presentation of a statement advising negotiation or payment, upon receipt of such statement (even if such statement indicates that a draft or other document is being delivered separately), and shall not be liable for any failure of any such draft or other document to arrive, or to conform in any way with the relevant Letter of Credit; (v) may pay any paying or negotiating bank claiming that it rightfully honored under the Laws or practices of the place where such bank is located; and (vi) may settle or adjust any claim or demand made on the Administrative Agent or its Affiliate in any way related to any order issued at the applicant’s request to an air carrier, a letter of guarantee or of indemnity issued to a carrier or any similar document (each an “Order”) and honor any drawing in connection with any Letter of Credit that is the subject to such Order, notwithstanding that any drafts or other documents presented in connection with such Letter of Credit fail to conform in any way with such Letter of Credit.

In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific provisions set forth above, any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates under or in connection with the Letters of Credit issued by it or any documents and certificates delivered thereunder, if taken or omitted in good faith, shall not put the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates under any resulting liability to the Borrower or any Bank.

2.10 Increase of Revolving Credit Commitments.

If at any time after the Closing Date, and so long as no Event of Default or Potential Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower desires to increase the Revolving Credit Commitments, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent, who will promptly notify each Bank thereof, provided that any such increase shall be in a minimum amount of Twenty Five Million and 00/100 Dollars ($25,000,000.00) and the aggregate of all such increases shall not exceed Seventy-Five Million and 00/100 Dollars ($75,000,000.00), without the prior consent of all of the Banks. The existing Banks shall have the right at any time within thirty (30) days following such notice to increase their respective Revolving Credit Commitments so as to provide such additional Revolving Credit Commitment pro-rata in accordance with the Ratable Share of each, and any portion of such requested increase which is not provided by any such existing Bank shall be available to the other existing Banks; provided, that if more than one existing Bank desires to increase its Revolving Credit Commitment in respect of the portion not provided by an existing Bank, such participating Banks shall provide such portion of the additional Revolving Credit Commitments on a pro rata basis in accordance with the proportion that their respective Ratable Share bears to each other, and thereafter, to the extent not provided by existing Banks, to any additional lending institution or institutions proposed by the Borrower and which is approved by the Administrative Agent and which becomes a party to this Agreement pursuant to documentation reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and

prepared at the Borrower’s expense, which documentation may be executed by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (as agent for the Banks) without further consent or action of the Banks, such consent hereby deemed to be irrevocably given to the Administrative Agent by the Banks; provided, however, that the Borrower shall have the right to have all of such increase provided by such approved additional lending institution or institutions if all the existing Banks decline to increase their Revolving Credit Commitments to accommodate any such requested increase. In the event of any such increase in the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments and in the Revolving Credit Commitment of any Bank effected pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.10, new Notes shall, to the extent deemed reasonably necessary or appropriate by the Administrative Agent, be executed and delivered by the Borrower and, to the extent deemed appropriate by the Administrative Agent, the surrender and cancellation of existing Note(s); and the Borrower shall execute and deliver such additional documentation setting forth the new Revolving Credit Commitments and Ratable Shares as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request (which documentation may be executed by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (as agent for the Banks) without further consent or action of the Banks, such consent herein is deemed to be irrevocably given to the Administrative Agent by the Banks).

2.11 Currency Repayments.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the entire amount of principal of and interest on any Loan made in an Optional Currency shall be repaid in the same Optional Currency in which such Loan was made, provided, however, that if it is impossible or illegal for Borrower to effect payment of a Loan in the Optional Currency in which such Loan was made, or if Borrower defaults in its obligations to do so, the Required Banks may at their option permit such payment to be made (i) at and to a different location, subsidiary, affiliate or correspondent of Administrative Agent, or (ii) in the Equivalent Amount of Dollars or (iii) in an Equivalent Amount of such other currency (freely convertible into Dollars) as the Required Banks may solely at their option designate. Upon any events described in (i) through (iii) of the preceding sentence, Borrower shall make such payment and Borrower agrees to hold each Bank harmless from and against any loss incurred by any Bank arising from the cost to such Bank of any premium, any costs of exchange, the cost of hedging and covering the Optional Currency in which such Loan was originally made, and from any change in the value of Dollars, or such other currency, in relation to the Optional Currency that was due and owing. Such loss shall be calculated for the period commencing with the first day of the Interest Period for such Loan and continuing through the date of payment thereof. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of Borrower hereunder, Borrower’s obligations under this Section 2.11 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

2.12 Optional Currency Amounts.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Administrative Agent may, with respect to notices by Borrower for Loans in an Optional Currency or voluntary prepayments of less than the full amount of an Optional Currency Borrowing Tranche, engage in reasonable rounding of the Optional Currency amounts requested to be loaned or repaid; and, in such event, Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Borrower and the Banks of such rounded

amounts and Borrower’s request or notice shall thereby be deemed to reflect such rounded amounts.

3. INTEREST RATES

3.1 Interest Rate Options.

The Borrower shall pay interest in respect of the outstanding unpaid principal amount of the Loans as selected by it from the Base Rate Option or Euro-Rate Option set forth below applicable to the Loans, it being understood that, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower may select different Interest Rate Options and different Interest Periods to apply simultaneously to the Loans comprising different Borrowing Tranches and may convert to or renew one or more Interest Rate Options with respect to all or any portion of the Loans comprising any Borrowing Tranche, provided that there shall not be at any one time outstanding more than eight (8) Borrowing Tranches in the aggregate among all of the Loans (including a Borrowing Tranche to which the Base Rate Option applies) and provided further that only the Base Rate or such other interest rates as PNC Bank and the Borrower may agree to from time to time shall apply to the Swing Loans. If at any time the designated rate applicable to any Loan made by any Bank exceeds such Bank’s highest lawful rate, the rate of interest on such Bank’s Loan shall be limited to such Bank’s highest lawful rate. Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Borrower shall not be required to pay, and the Banks shall not be permitted to collect, any amount of interest in excess of the maximum amount of interest permitted by applicable Law (“Excess Interest”). If any Excess Interest is provided for or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been provided for in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, then, in such event: (1) the provisions of this subsection shall govern and control; (2) the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any Excess Interest; (3) any Excess Interest that the Banks may have received hereunder shall be, at the option of the Required Banks, (a) applied as a credit against the outstanding principal balance of the Obligations or accrued and unpaid interest (not to exceed the maximum amount permitted by Law), (b) refunded to the payor thereof, or (c) any combination of the foregoing; (4) the interest rates provided for herein shall be automatically reduced to the maximum lawful rate allowed from time to time under applicable Law, and this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to have been and shall be reformed and modified to reflect such reduction; and (5) the Borrower shall have no action against the Administrative Agent or any Bank for any damages arising out of the payment or collection of any Excess Interest (other than to enforce this Section 3.1 [Interest Rate Options]). Interest on the principal amount of each Loan made in an Optional Currency shall be paid by the Borrower in such Optional Currency.

3.1.1. Revolving Credit Interest Rate Options.

The Borrower shall have the right to select from the following Interest Rate Options applicable to the Revolving Credit Loans (subject to the provisions above regarding Swing Loans), except that no Loan to which a Base Rate shall apply may be made in an Optional Currency:

(i) Revolving Credit Base Rate Option: A fluctuating rate per annum (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed) equal to the Base Rate, such interest rate to change automatically from time to time effective as of the effective date of each change in the Base Rate; or

(ii) Revolving Credit Euro-Rate Option: A rate per annum (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed, provided that, for Loans made in an Optional Currency for which a three hundred sixty five (365) day basis is the only market practice available to the Administrative Agent, such rate shall be calculated on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty five (365) days) equal to the Euro-Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

3.1.2. Swing Loan Interest Rate.

Each Swing Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (i) the Base Rate (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed), such interest rate to change automatically from time to time effective as of the effective date of each change in the Base Rate or (ii) such other interest rates (computed on the basis of a year of 360, 365 or 366 days, as PNC may determine) as PNC Bank and the Borrower may agree to from time to time.

3.1.3. Rate Quotations.

The Borrower may call the Administrative Agent on or before the date on which a Loan Request is to be delivered to receive an indication of the interest rates and the applicable currency exchange rates then in effect, but it is acknowledged that such projection shall not be binding on the Administrative Agent or the Banks nor affect the rate of interest or the calculation of Equivalent Amounts which thereafter are actually in effect when the election is made.

3.2 Interest Periods.

At any time when the Borrower shall select, convert to or renew a Euro-Rate Option, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof at least four (4) Business Days prior to the effective date of such Interest Rate Option, with respect to an Optional Currency Loan, and three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such Interest Rate Option with respect to a Dollar Loan. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the notice shall specify an Interest Period during which such Interest Rate Option shall apply. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the following provisions shall apply to any selection of, renewal of, or conversion to a Euro-Rate Option:

3.2.1. Amount of Borrowing Tranche

The Dollar Equivalent amount of each Borrowing Tranche of Euro-Rate Loans shall be in integral multiples of Five Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($500,000.00) and not less than One Million and 00/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00);

3.2.2. Renewals

In the case of the renewal of a Euro-Rate Option at the end of an Interest Period, the first day of the new Interest Period shall be the last day of the preceding Interest Period, without duplication in payment of interest for such day.

3.3 Interest After Default.

To the extent permitted by Law, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and until such time such Event of Default shall have been cured or waived:

3.3.1. Interest Rate.

The rate of interest for each Loan otherwise applicable pursuant to Section 3.1 [Interest Rate Options], shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the rate of interest applicable under the Base Rate Option plus an additional two percent (2.0%) per annum, each Borrowing Tranche to which the Euro-Rate Option applies shall automatically convert to the Base Rate Option at the end of the applicable Interest Period and no Loans may be made as, renewed or converted into a Borrowing Tranche to which the Euro-Rate Option applies;

3.3.2. Letter of Credit Fees.

The Letter of Credit Fees otherwise applicable pursuant to Section 2.9.2 [Letter of Credit Fees] shall be increased by two percent (2.0%) per annum;

3.3.3. Other Obligations.

Each other Obligation hereunder if not paid when due shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the rate of interest applicable under the Base Rate Option plus an additional two percent (2.0%) per annum from the time such Obligation becomes due and payable and until it is paid in full; and

3.3.4. Acknowledgment.

The Borrower acknowledges that the increase in rates referred to in this Section 3.3 [Interest After Default] reflects, among other things, the fact that such Loans or other amounts have become a substantially greater risk given their default status and that the Banks are entitled to additional compensation for such risk; and all such interest shall be payable by Borrower upon demand by Administrative Agent.

3.4 Euro-Rate Unascertainable; Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available.

3.4.1. Unascertainable.

If on any date on which a Euro-Rate would otherwise be determined, the Administrative Agent shall have determined that:

(i) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining such Euro-Rate, or

(ii) a contingency has occurred which materially and adversely affects the London interbank Eurodollar market relating to the Euro-Rate, the Administrative Agent shall have the rights specified in Section 3.4.3 [Administrative Agent’s and Bank’s Rights].

3.4.2. Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available.

If at any time any Bank shall have determined that:

(i) the making, maintenance or funding of any Loan to which a Euro-Rate Option applies has been made impracticable or unlawful by compliance by such Bank in good faith with any Law or any interpretation or application thereof by any Official Body or with any request or directive of any such Official Body (whether or not having the force of Law), or

(ii) such Euro-Rate Option will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Bank of the establishment or maintenance of any such Loan, or

(iii) after making all reasonable efforts, deposits of the relevant amount in Dollars or the Optional Currency (as applicable) for the relevant Interest Period for a Loan, or to banks generally, to which a Euro-Rate Option applies, respectively, are not available to such Bank with respect to such Loan, or to banks generally, in the interbank Eurodollar market, then the Administrative Agent shall have the rights specified in Section 3.4.3 [Administrative Agent’s and Bank’s Rights].

3.4.3. Administrative Agent’s and Bank’s Rights.

In the case of any event specified in Section 3.4.1 [Unascertainable] above, the Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify the Banks and the Borrower thereof, and in the case of an event specified in Section 3.4.2 [Illegality; Increased Costs; Etc.] above, such Bank shall promptly so notify the Administrative Agent and endorse a certificate to such notice as to the specific circumstances of such notice, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly send copies of such notice and certificate to the other Banks and the Borrower. Upon such date as shall be specified in such notice (which shall not be earlier than the date such notice is given), the obligation of (A) the Banks, in the case of such notice given by the Administrative Agent, or (B) such Bank, in the case of such notice given by such Bank, to allow the Borrower to select, convert to or renew a Euro-Rate Option or select an Optional Currency (as applicable) shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall have later notified the Borrower, or such Bank shall have later notified the Administrative Agent, of the Administrative Agent’s or such Bank’s, as the case may be, determination that the circumstances giving rise to such previous determination no longer exist. If at any time the Administrative Agent makes a determination under Section 3.4.1 [Unascertainable] and the Borrower has previously notified the Administrative Agent of its selection of, conversion to or renewal of a Euro-Rate Option and

such Interest Rate Option has not yet gone into effect, such notification shall be deemed to provide for the selection of, conversion to or renewal of the Base Rate Option otherwise available with respect to such Loans. If any Bank notifies the Administrative Agent of a determination under Section 3.4.2 [Illegality; Increased Costs; Etc.], the Borrower shall, subject to the Borrower’s indemnification Obligations under Section 4.6.2 [Indemnity], as to any Loan of the Bank to which a Euro-Rate Option applies, on the date specified in such notice either (i) as applicable, convert such Loan to the Base Rate Option otherwise available with respect to such Loan or select a different Optional Currency or Dollars, or (ii) prepay such Loan in accordance with Section 4.4 [Voluntary Prepayments]. Absent due notice from the Borrower of conversion or prepayment, such Loan shall automatically be converted to the Base Rate Option otherwise available with respect to such Loan upon such specified date.

3.5 Selection of Interest Rate Options; Selection of Optional Currency.

If the Borrower fails to select a new Interest Period or Optional Currency to apply to any Borrowing Tranche of Loans under the Euro-Rate Option at the expiration of an existing Interest Period applicable to such Borrowing Tranche in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.2 [Interest Periods], the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected a one Month Interest Period to apply to such Borrowing Tranche with no change in the currency in which such Loan was originally made, commencing upon the last day of the existing Interest Period.

The Borrower shall have the right at its option from time to time to prepay the Loans in whole or part without premium or penalty (except as provided in Section 4.4.2 [Replacement of a Bank] below or in Section 4.6 [Additional Compensation in Certain Circumstances]) in the currency in which such Loan was made:

(i) at any time with respect to any Loan to which the Base Rate Option applies,

(ii) on the last day of the applicable Interest Period with respect to Loans to which a Euro-Rate Option applies, and

(iii) on the date specified in a notice by any Bank pursuant to Section 3.4 [Euro-Rate Unascertainable, Etc.] with respect to any Loan to which a Euro-Rate Option applies.

Whenever the Borrower desires to prepay any part of the Loans, it shall provide a prepayment notice to the Administrative Agent by 11:00 a.m., Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time, (a) at least one (1) Business Day prior to the date of prepayment of Revolving Credit Loans denominated in U.S. Dollars, (b) at least four (4) Business Days prior to the date of prepayment of Revolving Credit Loans denominated in an Optional Currency, and (c) no later than 11:00 a.m., Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time, on the date of prepayment of Swing Loans, setting forth the following information:

All prepayment notices shall be irrevocable. The principal amount of the Loans for which a prepayment notice is given, together with interest on such principal amount except with respect to Loans to which the Base Rate Option applies, shall be due and payable on the date specified in such prepayment notice as the date on which the proposed prepayment is to be made in the currency in which such Loan was made. Except as provided in Section 3.4.3 [Administrative Agent’s and Bank’s Rights], if the Borrower prepays a Loan but fails to specify the applicable Borrowing Tranche which the Borrower is prepaying, the prepayment shall be applied first to Loans to which the Base Rate Option applies, then to Loans to which the Euro-

Rate Option applies, and then to Optional Currency Loans. Any prepayment hereunder shall be subject to the Borrower’s Obligation to indemnify the Banks under Section 4.6.2 [Indemnity].

4.4.2. Replacement of a Bank.

In the event any Bank (i) gives notice under Section 3.4 [Euro-Rate Unascertainable, Etc.] or Section 4.6.1 [Increased Costs, Etc.], (ii) does not fund Revolving Credit Loans because the making of such Loans would contravene any Law applicable to such Bank, (iii) becomes subject to the control of an Official Body (other than normal and customary supervision), or (iv) has failed to consent to a proposed modification, amendment or waiver which pursuant to the terms of Section 10.1 or any other provision of any Loan Document requires the consent of all of the Banks and with respect to which the Super-Majority Required Banks shall have granted their consent, (a) within ninety (90) days after (x) receipt of such Bank’s notice under Section 3.4 [Euro-Rate Unascertainable, Etc.] or 4.6.1 [Increased Costs, Etc.], (y) the date such Bank has failed to fund Revolving Credit Loans because the making of such Loans would contravene Law applicable to such Bank, or (z) the date such Bank became subject to the control of an Official Body, as applicable, or (b) within ninety (90) days after such Bank has failed to consent to a proposed modification, amendment or waiver, to prepay the Loans of such Bank in whole (together with all interest accrued thereon and any amounts required under Section 4.6 [Additional Compensation in Certain Circumstances] and any accrued interest due on such amount and any related fees) and terminate such Bank’s Commitment or to have such Bank’s Commitment replaced by one or more of the remaining Banks or a replacement bank acceptable to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 10.11 hereof; provided, that the remaining Banks shall have no obligation hereunder to increase their Commitments; provided, further to the extent the Borrower elects to replace a Bank which gave the Borrower notice under Section 3.4 or 4.6.1 or which failed to fund a Revolving Credit Loan because the making of such Loans would contravene any Law applicable to such Bank, it shall be obligated to remove or replace, as the case may be, all Banks that have made similar requests for compensation pursuant to Section 3.4 or Section 4.6.1 or who have failed to fund such Loans. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may only be replaced subject to the requirements of Section 9.14 [Successor Administrative Agent] and provided that all Letters of Credit have expired or been terminated or replaced.

4.4.3. Change of Lending Office.

Each Bank agrees that upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to increased costs or other special payments under Section 3.4.2 [Illegality, Etc.] or 4.6.1 [Increased Costs, Etc.] with respect to such Bank, it will if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Bank) to designate another lending office for any Loans or Letters of Credit affected by such event, provided that such designation is made on such terms that such Bank and its lending office suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, with the object of avoiding the consequence of the event giving rise to the operation of such Section. Nothing in this Section 4.3 [Interest Payment Dates] shall affect or postpone any of the Obligations of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or RSC or the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Bank provided in this Agreement.

4.5 Mandatory Prepayments.

4.5.1. Currency Fluctuations

If on any Computation Date (i) the Dollar Equivalent Revolving Facility Usage is equal to or greater than one hundred percent (100%) of the Commitments as a result of a change in exchange rates between one (1) or more Optional Currencies and Dollars, then the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of the same. The Borrower shall pay or prepay Loans (subject to Borrower’s indemnity obligations under Sections 3.4 [Euro-Rate Unascertainable; Illegality; Increased Costs, etc.] and 4.6 [Additional Compensation in Certain Circumstances]) within one (1) Business Day after receiving such notice such that the Dollar Equivalent Revolving Facility Usage shall not exceed the aggregate Commitments after giving effect to such payments or prepayments.

4.5.2. Application among Interest Rate Options.

All prepayments required pursuant to this Section 4.5 [Mandatory Prepayments] shall first be applied among the Interest Rate Options to the principal amount of the Loans subject to the Base Rate Option, then to Dollar Loans subject to a Euro-Rate Option and then to Optional Currency Loans subject to the Euro-Rate Option. In accordance with Section 4.6.2 [Indemnity], the Borrower shall indemnify the Banks for any loss or expense, including loss of margin, incurred with respect to any such prepayments applied against Loans subject to a Euro-Rate Option on any day other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period.

4.6 Additional Compensation in Certain Circumstances.

4.6.1. Increased Costs or Reduced Return Resulting from Taxes, Reserves, Capital Adequacy Requirements, Expenses, Etc.

If any Law, guideline or interpretation or any change in any Law, guideline or interpretation or application thereof by any Official Body charged with the interpretation or administration thereof or compliance with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of Law) of any central bank or other Official Body:

(i) subjects any Bank to any tax or changes the basis of taxation with respect to this Agreement, the Notes, the Loans, the Letters of Credit or payments by the Borrower of principal, interest, Commitment Fees, or other amounts due from the Borrower hereunder or under the Notes (except for taxes on or measured by the overall net income of such Bank),

(ii) imposes, modifies or deems applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against credits or commitments to extend credit extended by, or assets (funded or contingent) of, deposits with or for the account of, or other acquisitions of funds by, any Bank or any lending office of any Bank, or

(iii) imposes, modifies or deems applicable any capital adequacy or similar requirement (A) against assets (funded or contingent) of, or letters of credit,

other credits or commitments to extend credit extended by, any Bank, or (B) otherwise applicable to the obligations of any Bank or any lending office of any Bank under this Agreement, and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to, reduce the income receivable by, or impose any expense (including loss of margin) upon any Bank or its lending office with respect to this Agreement, the Notes or the making, maintenance or funding of any part of the Loans (or, in the case of any capital adequacy or similar requirement, to have the effect of reducing the rate of return on any Bank’s capital, taking into consideration such Bank’s customary policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount which such Bank in its sole discretion deems to be material, such Bank shall from time to time notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of the amount determined in good faith (using any averaging and attribution methods employed in good faith) by such Bank to be necessary to compensate such Bank for such increase in cost, reduction of income, additional expense or reduced rate of return. Such notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for such determination. Such amount shall be due and payable by the Borrower to such Bank ten (10) Business Days after such notice is given.

4.6.2. Indemnity.

In addition to the compensation required by Section 4.6.1 [Increased Costs, Etc.], each Loan Party shall indemnify each Bank against all liabilities, losses or expenses (including loss of margin, any loss or expense incurred in liquidating or employing deposits from third parties, any loss or expense incurred in connection with funds acquired by a Bank to fund or maintain Loans subject to a Euro-Rate Option and any customary administrative expenses of such Bank) which such Bank sustains or incurs as a consequence of any:

(i) payment, prepayment, conversion or renewal of any Loan to which a Euro-Rate Option applies on a day other than the last day of the corresponding Interest Period (whether or not such payment or prepayment is mandatory, voluntary or automatic and whether or not such payment or prepayment is then due),

(ii) attempt by the Borrower to revoke (expressly, by later inconsistent notices or otherwise) in whole or part any Loan Requests under Section 2.4 [Revolving Credit Loan Requests] or Section 3.2 [Interest Periods] or notice relating to prepayments under Section 4.4 [Voluntary Prepayments], or

(iii) default by a Loan Party or RSC in the performance or observance of any covenant or condition contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, including any failure of the Borrower to pay when due (by acceleration or otherwise) any principal, interest, Commitment Fee or any other amount due hereunder.

If any Bank sustains or incurs any such loss or expense, it shall from time to time notify the Borrower of the amount determined in good faith by such Bank (which determination may include such assumptions, allocations of costs and expenses and averaging or attribution methods as such Bank shall deem reasonable) to be necessary to indemnify such Bank for such loss or expense. Such notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for such determination. Such amount shall be due and payable by the Loan Parties to such Bank ten (10) Business Days after such notice is given.

4.7 Interbank Market Presumption.

For all purposes of this Agreement and each Note with respect to any aspects of the Euro-Rate, any Loan under the Euro-Rate Option or any Optional Currency, each Bank and the Administrative Agent shall be presumed to have obtained rates, funding, currencies, deposits, and the like in the applicable interbank market regardless whether it did so or not; and, each Bank’s and the Administrative Agent’s determination of amounts payable under, and actions required or authorized by, Sections 3.4 [Euro-Rate Unascertainable; Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available] and 4.6 [Indemnity] shall be calculated, at each Bank’s and the Administrative Agent’s option, as though each Bank and the Administrative Agent funded each Borrowing Tranche of Loans under the Euro-Rate Option through the purchase of deposits of the types and maturities corresponding to the deposits used as a reference in accordance with the terms hereof in determining the Euro-Rate applicable to such Loans, whether in fact that is the case.

4.8 Taxes.

4.8.1. No Deductions.

All payments made by Borrower hereunder and under each Note shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding taxes imposed on the net income of any Bank and all income and franchise taxes applicable to any Bank of the United States (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings, and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If Borrower shall be required by Law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any Note, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 4.8.1) each Bank receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) Borrower shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant tax authority or other authority in accordance with applicable Law.

4.8.2. Stamp Taxes.

In addition, Borrower agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges, or similar levies which arise from any payment made hereunder or from the execution, delivery, or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any Note (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

4.8.3. Indemnification for Taxes Paid by a Bank.

Borrower shall indemnify each Bank for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 4.8.3) paid by any Bank and any liability (including penalties, interest, and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other

Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. This indemnification shall be made within thirty (30) days from the date a Bank makes written demand therefor.

4.8.4. Certificate.

Within thirty (30) days after the date of any payment of any Taxes by Borrower, Borrower shall furnish to each Bank, at its address referred to herein, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof. If no Taxes are payable in respect of any payment by Borrower, such Borrower shall, if so requested by a Bank, provide a certificate of an officer of Borrower to that effect.

4.8.5. Survival.

Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of Borrower contained in Sections 4.8.1 through 4.8.4 shall survive the payment in full of principal and interest hereunder and under any instrument delivered hereunder.

4.9 Judgment Currency.

4.9.1. Currency Conversion Procedures for Judgments.

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

4.9.2. Indemnity in Certain Events.

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

4.10 Settlement Date Procedures.

In order to minimize the transfer of funds between the Banks and the Administrative Agent, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow Swing Loans and PNC Bank may make Swing Loans as provided in Section 2.1.2 [Swing Loans] hereof during the period between Settlement Dates. Not later than 10:00 a.m., Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time, on

each Settlement Date, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Bank of its Ratable Share of the total of the Revolving Credit Loans (each a “Required Share”). Prior to 2:00 p.m., Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time, on such Settlement Date, each Bank shall pay to the Administrative Agent the amount equal to the difference between its Required Share and its Revolving Credit Loans, and the Administrative Agent shall pay to each Bank its Ratable Share of all payments made by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent with respect to the Revolving Credit Loans. The Administrative Agent shall also effect settlement in accordance with the foregoing sentence on the proposed Borrowing Dates for Revolving Credit Loans and may at its option effect settlement on any other Business Day. These settlement procedures are established solely as a matter of administrative convenience, and nothing contained in this Section 4.10 [Settlement Date Procedures] shall relieve the Banks of their obligations to fund Revolving Credit Loans on dates other than a Settlement Date pursuant to Section 2.1.1 [Revolving Credit Loans]. The Administrative Agent may at any time at its option for any reason whatsoever require each Bank to pay immediately to the Administrative Agent such Bank’s Ratable Share of the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans and each Bank may at any time require the Administrative Agent to pay immediately to such Bank its Ratable Share of all payments made by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent with respect to the Revolving Credit Loans.

PNC Bank agrees to act as the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Banks to the extent provided in this Agreement.

9.2 Delegation of Duties.

The Administrative Agent may perform any of its duties hereunder by or through agents or employees (provided such delegation does not constitute a relinquishment of its duties as Administrative Agent) subject to Sections 9.5 [Reimbursement of Administrative Agent by Loan Parties, Etc.] and 9.6 [Exculpatory Provisions, Etc.], shall be entitled to engage and pay for the advice or services of any attorneys, accountants or other experts concerning all matters pertaining to its duties hereunder and to rely upon any advice so obtained.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the term “agent” in this Agreement with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties. Each Bank expressly acknowledges (i) that the Administrative Agent has not made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of any of the Loan Parties or RSC, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to any Bank; (ii) that it has made and will continue to make, without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs and its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of each of the Loan Parties and RSC in connection with this Agreement and the making and continuance of the Loans hereunder; and (iii) except as expressly provided herein, that the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Bank with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making of any Loan or at any time or times thereafter.

The Administrative Agent agrees, upon the written request of the Required Banks, to take or refrain from taking any action of the type specified as being within the Administrative Agent’s rights, powers or discretion herein, provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes the Administrative Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or applicable Law. In the absence of a request by the Required Banks, the Administrative Agent shall have authority, in its sole discretion, to take or not to take any such action, unless this Agreement specifically requires the consent of the Required Banks or all of the Banks. Any action taken or failure to act pursuant to such instructions or discretion shall be binding on the Banks, subject to Section 9.6 [Exculpatory Provisions, Etc.]. Subject to the provisions of Section 9.6 [Exculpatory Provisions, Etc.], no Bank shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Administrative Agent as a result of the Administrative Agent acting or refraining from acting hereunder in accordance with the instructions of the Required Banks, or in the absence of such instructions, in the absolute discretion of the Administrative Agent.

settlement agreement entered into without the consent of such Bank, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. In addition, each Bank agrees promptly upon demand to reimburse the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Loan Parties or RSC and without limiting the Obligation of any Loan Party or RSC to do so) in proportion to its Ratable Share for all amounts due and payable by the Loan Parties and RSC to the Administrative Agent in connection with the Administrative Agent’s periodic audit of the Loan Parties’ and RSC’s books, records and business properties.

The Banks or any such holder receiving any such amount shall purchase for cash from each of the other Banks an interest in such Bank’s Loans in such amount as shall result in a ratable participation by the Banks and each such holder in the aggregate unpaid amount under the Notes, provided that if all or any portion of such excess amount is thereafter recovered from the Bank or the holder making such purchase, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, together with interest or other amounts, if any, required by Law (including court order) to be paid by the Bank or the holder making such purchase.

9.14 Successor Administrative Agent.

The Administrative Agent (i) may resign as Administrative Agent or (ii) shall resign if such resignation is requested by the Required Banks (if the Administrative Agent is a

Bank, the Administrative Agent’s Loans and its Commitment shall be considered in determining whether the Required Banks have requested such resignation) or required by Section 4.4.2 [Replacement of a Bank], in either case of (i) or (ii) by giving not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Borrower. If the Administrative Agent shall resign under this Agreement, then either (a) the Required Banks shall appoint from among the Banks a successor agent for the Banks, subject to the consent of the Borrower, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, or (b) if a successor agent shall not be so appointed and approved within the thirty (30) day period following the Administrative Agent’s notice to the Banks of its resignation, then the Administrative Agent shall appoint, with the consent of the Borrower, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, a successor agent who shall serve as Administrative Agent until such time as the Required Banks appoint and the Borrower consents to the appointment of a successor agent, provided that the consent of the Borrower shall not be required if any Event of Default then exists. Upon its appointment pursuant to either clause (a) or (b) above, such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent, and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor agent, effective upon its appointment, and the former Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement. After the resignation of any Administrative Agent hereunder, the provisions of this Section 9 [The Administrative Agent] shall inure to the benefit of such former Administrative Agent and such former Administrative Agent shall not by reason of such resignation be deemed to be released from liability for any actions taken or not taken by it while it was an Administrative Agent under this Agreement.

The Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption (but shall not be required to), make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount in the applicable currency. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent by such Bank in the applicable currency, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Bank (or, if such Bank fails to pay such amount forthwith upon such demand from the Borrower) together with interest thereon, in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date such amount was made available

to the Borrower and ending on the date the Administrative Agent recovers such amount, at a rate per annum equal to (i) the Federal Funds Effective Rate during the first three (3) days after such interest shall begin to accrue and (ii) the applicable interest rate in respect of such Loan after the end of such three-day period.

In the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, the Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any error in computing the amount payable to any Bank whether in respect of the Loans, fees or any other amounts due to the Banks under this Agreement. In the event an error in computing any amount payable to any Bank is made, the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and each affected Bank shall, forthwith upon discovery of such error, make such adjustments as shall be required to correct such error, and any compensation therefor will be calculated at the Federal Funds Effective Rate or the Overnight Rate if such computation relates to a Loan made in an Optional Currency.

9.18 No Reliance on Administrative Agent’s Customer Identification Program.

Each Bank acknowledges and agrees that neither such Bank, nor any of its Affiliates, participants or assignees, may rely on the Administrative Agent to carry out such Bank’s, Affiliate’s, participant’s or assignee’s customer identification program, or other obligations required or imposed under or pursuant to the USA Patriot Act or the regulations thereunder, including the regulations contained in 31 CFR 103.121 (as hereafter amended or replaced, the “CIP Regulations”), or any other Anti-Terrorism Law, including any programs involving any of the following items relating to or in connection with any of the Loan Parties, their Affiliates or their agents, the Loan Documents or the transactions hereunder or contemplated hereby: (1) any identity verification procedures, (2) any record keeping, (3) comparisons with government lists, (4) customer notices or (5) other procedures required under the CIP Regulations or such other Laws.

9.19 Beneficiaries.

Except as expressly provided herein, the provisions of this Section 9 [The Administrative Agent] are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Banks, and neither the Loan Parties nor RSC shall have any rights to rely on or enforce any of the provisions hereof. In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall act solely as agent of the Banks and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation toward or relationship of agency or trust with or for any of the Loan Parties or RSC.

9.20 Syndication Agent, Co-Documentation Agents, Lead Arranger and Sole Bookrunner.

10. MISCELLANEOUS

10.1 Modifications, Amendments or Waivers.

With the written consent of the Required Banks, the Administrative Agent, acting on behalf of all the Banks, and the Borrower, on behalf of the Loan Parties and RSC, may from time to time enter into written agreements amending or changing any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the rights of the Banks, the Loan Parties or RSC hereunder or thereunder, or may grant written waivers or consents to a departure from the due performance of the Obligations of the Loan Parties and RSC hereunder or thereunder. Any such agreement, waiver or consent made with such written consent shall be effective to bind all the Banks, the Loan Parties and RSC; provided, that, without the written consent of all the Banks, no such agreement, waiver or consent may be made which will:

10.1.1. Increase of Commitment; Extension of Expiration Date,

Increase the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment of any Bank hereunder or extend the Expiration Date;

10.1.3. Release of Guarantor.

Except in connection with the dissolution of a Loan Party permitted pursuant to Section 7.2.5 [Liquidations, Mergers, Consolidations, Acquisitions], release any Guarantor from its Obligations under the Guaranty Agreements, the Borrower/RSC Guaranty Agreement or any other security for any of the Loan Parties’ or RSC’s Obligations; or

10.1.4. Miscellaneous.

Amend Section 4.2 [Pro Rata Treatment of Banks], 9.6 [Exculpatory Provisions, Etc.] or 9.13 [Equalization of Banks] or this Section 10.1 [Modifications, Amendments or Waivers], alter any provision regarding the pro rata treatment of the Banks, change the definition of Required Banks, or change any requirement providing for the Banks or the Required Banks to authorize the taking of any action hereunder;

provided, further, that no agreement, waiver or consent which would modify the interests, rights or obligations of (i) the Administrative Agent in its capacity as Administrative Agent shall be effective without the written consent of the Administrative Agent or (ii) the Administrative Agent in its capacity as issuer of Letters of Credit shall be effective without the written consent of the Administrative Agent.

10.2 No Implied Waivers; Cumulative Remedies; Writing Required.

No course of dealing and no delay or failure of the Administrative Agent or any Bank in exercising any right, power, remedy or privilege under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall affect any other or future exercise thereof or operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right, power, remedy or privilege preclude any further exercise thereof or of any other right, power, remedy or privilege. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Banks under this Agreement and any other Loan Documents are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which they would otherwise have. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character on the part of any Bank of any breach or default under this Agreement or any such waiver of any provision or condition of this Agreement must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing.

10.3 Reimbursement and Indemnification of Banks by the Loan Parties and RSC; Taxes.

The Loan Parties and RSC, jointly and severally, agree unconditionally upon demand to pay or reimburse to each Bank (other than the Administrative Agent, as to which the Loan Parties’ and RSC’s Obligations are set forth in Section 9.5 [Reimbursement of Administrative Agent By Loan Parties, Etc.]) and to save such Bank harmless against (i) liability for the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs, expenses and disbursements (including fees and expenses of counsel (including allocated costs of staff counsel) for each Bank except with respect to (a) and (b) below), incurred by such Bank (a) in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution, administration and interpretation of this Agreement, and other instruments and documents to be delivered hereunder, (b) relating to any amendments, waivers or consents pursuant to the provisions hereof, (c) in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or collection of amounts due hereunder or thereunder or the proof and allowability of any claim arising under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, whether in bankruptcy or receivership proceedings or otherwise, (d) in any workout or restructuring or in connection with the protection, preservation, exercise or enforcement of any of the terms hereof or of any rights hereunder or under any other Loan Document or in connection with any foreclosure, collection or bankruptcy proceedings, and (e) in connection with any Environmental Complaint threatened or asserted against the Administrative Agent or the Banks in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents (including the protection, preservation, exercise or enforcement of any of the terms hereof or of any rights hereunder or under any other Loan Document or in connection with any foreclosure, collection or bankruptcy proceedings or in any workout or restructuring), or (ii) all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or

asserted against such Bank, in its capacity as such, in any way relating to or arising out of (y) this Agreement or any other Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by such Bank hereunder or thereunder and (z) any Environmental Complaint in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any action taken or omitted by such Bank hereunder or thereunder, provided that no Loan Party or RSC shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements (A) if the same results from such Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, or (B) if the Borrower was not given notice of the subject claim and the opportunity to participate in the defense thereof, at its expense (except that each Loan Party and RSC shall remain liable to the extent such failure to give notice does not result in a loss to such Loan Party or RSC), or (C) if the same results from a compromise or settlement agreement entered into without the consent of the Borrower, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Banks will attempt to minimize the fees and expenses of legal counsel for the Banks which are subject to reimbursement by the Borrower hereunder by considering the usage of one law firm to represent the Banks and the Administrative Agent if appropriate under the circumstances. Each Loan Party and RSC, jointly and severally, agrees unconditionally to pay all stamp, document, transfer, recording or filing taxes or fees and similar impositions now or hereafter determined by the Administrative Agent or any Bank to be payable in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and each Loan Party and RSC, jointly and severally, agrees unconditionally to save the Administrative Agent and the Banks harmless from and against any and all present or future claims, liabilities or losses with respect to or resulting from any omission to pay or delay in paying any such taxes, fees or impositions.

10.4 Holidays.

Whenever payment of a Loan to be made or taken hereunder shall be due on a day which is not a Business Day such payment shall be due on the next Business Day (except as provided in Section 3.2 [Interest Periods] with respect to Interest Periods under the Euro-Rate Option) and such extension of time shall be included in computing interest and fees, except that the Loans shall be due on the Business Day preceding the Expiration Date if the Expiration Date is not a Business Day. Whenever any payment or action to be made or taken hereunder (other than payment of the Loans) shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment or action shall be made or taken on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall not be included in computing interest or fees, if any, in connection with such payment or action.

10.5 Funding by Branch, Subsidiary or Affiliate.

10.5.1. Notional Funding.

Each Bank shall have the right from time to time, without notice to the Borrower, to deem any branch, Subsidiary or Affiliate (which for the purposes of this Section 10.5 [Funding by Branch, Subsidiary or Affiliate] shall mean any corporation or association which is directly or indirectly controlled by or is under direct or indirect common control with any corporation or association which directly or indirectly controls such Bank) of such Bank to have made, maintained or funded any Loan to which the Euro-Rate Option applies

at any time, provided that immediately following (on the assumption that a payment were then due from the Borrower to such other office), and as a result of such change, the Borrower would not be under any greater financial obligation pursuant to Section 4.6 [Additional Compensation in Certain Circumstances] than it would have been in the absence of such change. Notional funding offices may be selected by each Bank without regard to such Bank’s actual methods of making, maintaining or funding the Loans or any sources of funding actually used by or available to such Bank.

10.5.2. Actual Funding.

Each Bank shall have the right from time to time to make or maintain any Loan by arranging for a branch, Subsidiary or Affiliate of such Bank to make or maintain such Loan subject to the last sentence of this Section 10.5.2 [Actual Funding]. If any Bank causes a branch, Subsidiary or Affiliate to make or maintain any part of the Loans hereunder, all terms and conditions of this Agreement shall, except where the context clearly requires otherwise, be applicable to such part of the Loans to the same extent as if such Loans were made or maintained by such Bank, but in no event shall any Bank’s use of such a branch, Subsidiary or Affiliate to make or maintain any part of the Loans hereunder cause such Bank or such branch, Subsidiary or Affiliate to incur any cost or expenses payable by the Borrower hereunder or require the Borrower to pay any other compensation to any Bank (including any expenses incurred or payable pursuant to Section 4.6 [Additional Compensation in Certain Circumstances]) which would otherwise not be incurred.

10.6 Notices; Lending Offices.

Any notice, request, demand, direction or other communication (for purposes of this Section 10.6 [Notices] only, a “Notice” to be given to or made upon any party hereto under any provision of this Agreement shall be given or made by telephone or in writing (which includes means of electronic transmission (i.e., “e-mail”) or facsimile transmission or by setting forth such Notice on a site on the World Wide Web (a “Website Posting”) if Notice of such Website Posting (including the information necessary to access such site) has previously been delivered to the applicable parties hereto by another means set forth in this Section 10.6 [Notices]) in accordance with this Section 10.6 [Notices]. Any such Notice must be delivered to the applicable parties hereto at the addresses and numbers set forth under their respective names on Schedule 1.1(B) hereof or in accordance with any subsequent unrevoked Notice from any such party that is given in accordance with this Section 10.6 [Notices]. Any Notice shall be effective:

(ii) If given by mail, four (4) days after such Notice is deposited with the United States Postal Service, with first-class postage prepaid, return receipt requested;

98 by hand delivery, a facsimile or electronic transmission, a Website Posting or overnight courier delivery of a confirmatory notice (received at or before noon on such next Business Day);

Any Bank giving a Notice to a Loan Party or RSC shall concurrently send a copy thereof to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the other Banks of its receipt of such Notice. Schedule 1.1(B) lists the lending offices of each Bank. Each Bank may change its lending office by written notice to the other parties hereto.

10.7 Severability.

The provisions of this Agreement are intended to be severable. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, such provision shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without in any manner affecting the validity or enforceability thereof in any other jurisdiction or the remaining provisions hereof in any jurisdiction.

10.8 Governing Law.

Each Letter of Credit and Section 2.9 [Letter of Credit Subfacility] shall be subject to the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits (1993 Revision), International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 500, as the same may be revised or amended from time to time, and to the extent not inconsistent therewith, the internal laws of the State of New York without regard to its conflict of laws principles, and the balance of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a contract under the Laws of the State of New York and for all purposes shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York without regard to its conflict of laws principles.

10.11 Successors and Assigns.

(i) This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Banks, the Administrative Agent, the Loan Parties, RSC and their respective successors and assigns, except that none of the Loan Parties or RSC may assign or transfer any of its rights and Obligations hereunder or any interest herein. Each Bank may, at its own cost, make assignments of or sell participations in all or any part of its Commitments and the Loans made by it to one or more banks or other entities subject to the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with respect to any assignee, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, provided that (i) no consent of the Borrower shall be required (A) if an Event of Default exists and is continuing, or (B) in the case of an assignment by a Bank to an Affiliate of such Bank, and (2) any assignment by a Bank to a Person other than an Affiliate of such Bank may not be made in amounts less than the lesser of Two Million Five Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($2,500,000.00) or the amount of the assigning Bank’s Commitment.

Any Bank which assigns any or all of its Commitment or Loans to a Person other than an Affiliate of such Bank shall pay to the Administrative Agent a service fee in the amount of Three Thousand Five Hundred and 00/100 Dollars ($3,500.00) for each assignment. In the case of a participation, the participant shall only have the rights specified in Section 8.2.3 [Set-off] (the participant’s rights against such Bank in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreement

100 executed by such Bank in favor of the participant relating thereto and not to include any voting rights except with respect to changes of the type referenced in Sections 10.1.1 [Increase of Commitment, Etc.], 10.1.2 [Extension of Payment, Etc.], or 10.1.3 [Release of Guarantor]), all of such Bank’s obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall remain unchanged, and all amounts payable by any Loan Party or RSC hereunder or thereunder shall be determined as if such Bank had not sold such participation.

(ii) Any assignee or participant which is not incorporated under the Laws of the United States of America or a state thereof shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent the form of certificate described in Section 10.17.1 [Tax Withholding Clause] relating to federal income tax withholding. Each Bank may furnish any publicly available information concerning any Loan Party or its Subsidiaries and any other information concerning any Loan Party or its Subsidiaries in the possession of such Bank from time to time to assignees and participants (including prospective assignees or participants), provided that such assignees and participants agree to be bound by the provisions of Section 10.12 [Confidentiality].

(iii) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, any Bank may at any time pledge or grant a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement, its Note and the other Loan Documents to any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the FRB or U.S. Treasury Regulation 31 CFR Section 203.14 without notice to or consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent.

101

10.12.2. Sharing Information With Affiliates of the Banks.

10.13 Counterparts.

10.15 Exceptions.

The representations, warranties and covenants contained herein shall be independent of each other, and no exception to any representation, warranty or covenant shall be deemed to be an exception to any other representation, warranty or covenant contained herein unless expressly provided, nor shall any such exceptions be deemed to permit any action or omission that would be in contravention of applicable Law.

10.17 Certifications From Banks and Participants

10.17.1. Tax Withholding Clause.

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

103

Regulations. Further, the Administrative Agent is indemnified under § 1.1461-1(e) of the Regulations against any claims and demands of any Bank or assignee or participant of a Bank for the amount of any tax it deducts and withholds in accordance with regulations under § 1441 of the Internal Revenue Code.

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

The Loan Parties shall deliver such Guarantor Joinder and related documents to the Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after the date of (a) the filing of such Subsidiary’s articles of incorporation if the Subsidiary is a corporation, (b) the filing of its certificate of limited partnership if it is a limited partnership or (c) if it is an entity other than a limited partnership or corporation, its organization.

FORM OF

GUARANTY AND SURETYSHIP AGREEMENT

IN CONSIDERATION of credit granted or to be granted by PNC Bank, National Association (“PNC Bank”) and various other financial institutions from time to time (PNC Bank and such other financial institutions are each a “Bank” and collectively, the “Banks”) pursuant to that certain Credit Agreement, dated the 31^st day of January, 2006, by and among Papa John’s International, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), the Guarantors (as defined in the Credit Agreement), RSC Insurance Services Ltd., a Bermuda company (“RSC”), the Banks, and PNC Bank, as Administrative Agent for the Banks (in such capacity, the “Agent”) (as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), intending to be legally bound hereby, and to induce the Banks to maintain or extend credit to the Borrower and RSC (the Borrower and RSC are each a “Debtor” and collectively, the “Debtors”), each of the undersigned parties (individually, a “Guarantor” and collectively, the “Guarantors”), this 31^st day of January, 2006, hereby jointly and severally with each of the other Guarantors (as defined in the Credit Agreement):

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

2. Assent to all agreements made or to be made between the Agent or any Bank and any other Person(s) liable, either absolutely or contingently, on any of the Debtor Liabilities, including any and all such agreements made by the Debtors and any co-maker, endorser, pledgor, surety or guarantor (any such Person being hereinafter referred to as an “Obligor”), and

further agrees that the Guarantors’ liability hereunder shall not be reduced or diminished by such agreements in any way;

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

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

5. Warrant that the address specified on the signature page hereof, immediately below each Guarantor’s name, is such Guarantor’s true and correct address, and agrees to notify the Agent, in the manner hereinafter specified, within three (3) days after any change in such Guarantor’s address.

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

EXTENT OF GUARANTOR’S LIABILITY. This Agreement shall be and is intended to be an absolute and unconditional guaranty and suretyship for the aggregate of the Debtor Liabilities, including, but not limited to, the Indebtedness evidenced by the Notes; provided, however that the Guarantors’ liability hereunder shall be limited as set forth below. The obligations of the Guarantors under this Agreement, when construed collectively with the obligations of (i) the Borrower under that certain Borrower/RSC Guaranty and Suretyship Agreement, dated of even date herewith, made by the Borrower for the benefit of the Agent and the Banks, and (ii) any other Person that becomes a Guarantor in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, are intended to be the joint and several obligations of the Guarantors, the Borrower and such other Persons that become Guarantors under the Credit Agreement, and this Agreement, when construed in connection with such other Guaranty and Suretyship Agreements, is intended to be an absolute and unconditional guaranty and suretyship for the aggregate of the Debtor Liabilities.

Subject to the remainder of this paragraph, but otherwise notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the maximum liability of each Guarantor under this Agreement shall not exceed the sum of (i) that portion of the Debtor Liabilities, the proceeds of which are used by the Debtors to make Valuable Transfers (as hereinafter defined) to such Guarantor, plus (ii) ninety-five percent (95%) of the Adjusted Net Worth (as hereinafter

defined), but only to the extent that Adjusted Net Worth is a positive number, of such Guarantor at the date of this Agreement. For purposes of this paragraph:

“Adjusted Net Worth” shall mean, as of any date of determination thereof, the excess of (i) the amount of the fair saleable value of the assets of such Guarantor as of the date of such determination, determined in accordance with applicable federal and state laws governing determinations of insolvency of debtors, over (ii) the amount of all liabilities of such Guarantor, contingent or otherwise, as of the date of such determination, determined on the basis provided in the preceding clause (i), in all events prior to giving effect to Valuable Transfers.

“Valuable Transfers” shall mean the Dollar Equivalent amount of the following: (a) all loans, advances, other credit accommodations, or capital contributions made to such Guarantor with proceeds of the Loans, (b) Letters of Credit Outstanding with respect to the Letters of Credit issued to support the obligations or Indebtedness of such Guarantor, (c) all debt securities or other obligations or Indebtedness of such Guarantor acquired from such Guarantor or retired, redeemed, purchased or acquired by such Guarantor with proceeds of any Loans or of any Letters of Credit issued to support the obligations or Indebtedness of such Guarantor, (d) all equity securities of such Guarantor acquired from such Guarantor with the proceeds of any Loans or of any drawings on Letters of Credit issued to support the obligations of such Guarantor, (e) the fair market value of all property acquired with proceeds of the Loans or of any drawings on Letters of Credit issued to support the obligations or Indebtedness of such Guarantor and transferred to such Guarantor, (f) the interest on and the fees in respect of the Loans, the proceeds of which are used to make such a Valuable Transfer, and (g) the value of any quantifiable economic benefits not included in clauses (a) through (f) above, but includable in accordance with applicable federal and state Laws governing determinations of the insolvency of debtors, accruing to such Guarantor as a result of the Loans or the Letters of Credit Outstanding.

The Guarantors agree that the Debtor Liabilities may at any time and from time to time exceed the maximum liability of the Guarantors hereunder without impairing this Agreement or affecting the rights and remedies of the Agent and the Banks hereunder. No payment or payments made by the Debtors or any other Person or received or collected by the Agent or any Bank from the Debtors, the Guarantors or any other Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any set-off or appropriation or application at any time or from time to time in reduction of or in payment of the Debtor Liabilities shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the liability of the Guarantors under this Agreement, and the Guarantors shall, notwithstanding any such payment or payments (other than payments made to the Agent or any Bank by the Guarantors or payments received or collected by the Agent or any Bank from the Guarantors), remain liable for the Debtor Liabilities up to the maximum liability amount of the Guarantors set forth in this paragraph until the Debtor Liabilities are indefeasibly paid in full in cash, the Commitments are terminated according to the terms of the Credit Agreement and all Letters of Credit have either expired or have been cancelled and all Bank-Provided Xxxxxx have either expired or have been canceled; provided, however, that, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in no event shall the Guarantors’ liability under this paragraph exceed the maximum amount that, after giving effect to the incurring of the obligations hereunder and to

any rights to contribution of the Guarantors from the Debtors and other Affiliates of the Debtors, would not render the Agent’s and the Banks’ right to payment hereunder void, voidable or avoidable under any applicable fraudulent transfer law; and further provided that if a greater amount of the Debtor Liabilities than the maximum liability set forth in this paragraph could be repaid by the Guarantors as a result of an increase in any Guarantor’s Adjusted Net Worth subsequent to the date of this Agreement, without rendering the Agent’s and the Banks’ right to payment hereunder void, voidable or avoidable under any applicable fraudulent transfer law, then the amount of such Guarantor’s maximum liability calculated in the first sentence of this paragraph shall be calculated based upon such Guarantor’s Adjusted Net Worth on such later date, rather than the date of execution of this Agreement.

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

RIGHT OF SET-OFF. If any liability of any Guarantor hereunder is not paid to the Agent when due, the Agent and the Banks may forthwith, at any time and from time to time without notice to any Guarantor, any right to such notice being hereby expressly waived by each Guarantor: set-off, appropriate and apply against the liabilities of the Guarantors hereunder (i) any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, excluding, however, trust accounts for Benefit Arrangements), in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held by the Agent or any Bank, not to exceed the amount then due, as the Agent or such Bank may elect, whether or not the Agent or such Bank shall have made any demand for payment and (ii) any and all moneys owed by the Agent or any Bank to any Guarantor in any capacity, whether or not then due, and whether provisionally or finally credited upon the Agent’s and the Banks’ books and records.

WAIVER. The Guarantors hereby waive all notice with respect to the present existence or future incurrence of any Debtor Liabilities including, but not limited to, the amount, terms and conditions thereof. The Guarantors hereby consent to the taking of, or failure to take, from time to time, any action of any nature whatsoever permitted by Law with respect to the Debtor Liabilities and with respect to any rights against any Person or Persons (including, without limitation, any Obligor), or in any property including, without limitation, any renewals, extensions, modifications, postponements, compromises, indulgences, waivers, surrenders, exchanges and releases, and the Guarantors will remain fully liable hereunder notwithstanding any or all of the foregoing. The granting of an express written release of any Guarantor’s liability hereunder or any other Obligor’s liability shall be effective only with respect to the liability hereunder of such Guarantor or Obligor who is specifically so expressly released but shall in no way affect the liability hereunder of such Guarantor or any Obligor not so expressly released. The dissolution of any Guarantor, or any other Obligor, shall in no way affect the liability hereunder or that of any other Obligor. The Guarantors hereby expressly waive: (i)

notices of acceptance hereof; (ii) any presentment, demand, protest, notice of default in connection with the Debtor Liabilities, dishonor or notice of dishonor; (iii) any right of indemnification; and (iv) any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense whatsoever to the liability of the Debtors, or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or in discharge of, the Guarantors with respect to their obligations hereunder.

No payment by any Guarantor shall entitle any other Obligor, by subrogation, contribution, indemnification or otherwise, to succeed to any to the rights of the Agent and the Banks, including rights to any payment made on account of the Debtor Liabilities, regardless of the source of such payment until all of the Debtors’ obligations to the Agent and the Banks under the Loan Documents are satisfied in full and are not subject to any right of disgorgement. The Guarantors hereby waive any benefit of and any right to participate in any collateral security now or hereafter held by the Agent and the Banks or any failure or refusal by the Agent and the Banks to perfect an interest in any collateral security.

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

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

PRIMARY LIABILITY OF THE GUARANTORS. The Guarantors agree that this Agreement may be enforced by the Agent and the Banks without the necessity at any time of resorting to or exhausting any other security or collateral and without the necessity at any time of having recourse to the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, or any collateral now or hereafter securing the Debtor Liabilities or otherwise, and the Guarantors hereby waive the right to require the Agent and the Banks to proceed against any other Obligor or to require the Agent and the Banks to pursue any other remedy or enforce any other right. The Guarantors further agree that nothing contained herein shall prevent the Agent and the Banks from suing on the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, or any of them, or foreclosing their Lien, if any, on any collateral hereafter securing the Debtor Liabilities or from exercising any other

rights available under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, or any other instrument of security if neither the Debtors nor the Guarantors satisfy the Debtor Liabilities thereunder, and the exercise of any of the aforesaid rights and the completion of any foreclosure proceedings shall not constitute a discharge of any of the obligations of the Guarantors thereunder; it being the purpose and intent of the Guarantors that the obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall be absolute, independent and unconditional. Neither the obligations of the Guarantors under this Agreement nor any remedy for the enforcement thereof shall be impaired, modified, changed or released in any manner whatsoever by an impairment, modification, change, release or limitation of the liability of the Debtors or by reason of the bankruptcy or insolvency of any Debtor. If acceleration of the time for payment of any amount payable by each Debtor is stayed upon the insolvency or bankruptcy of such Debtor, amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents including, without limitation, interest at the rates set forth in the Credit Agreement occurring after the date of such bankruptcy or insolvency, shall nonetheless be payable by the Guarantors hereunder forthwith on demand by the Agent. The Guarantors acknowledge that the term “Debtor Liabilities” as used herein includes any payments made by the Debtors to the Agent or the Banks and subsequently recovered by the Debtors or a trustee for any Debtor pursuant to bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings.

ACCELERATION OF THE GUARANTORS’ LIABILITIES. Upon the occurrence of any of the following events, all of the Debtor Liabilities, at the Agent’s and the Banks’ option, shall be deemed to be forthwith due and payable for the purposes of this Agreement and for determining the liability of the Guarantors hereunder, whether or not the Agent and the Banks have any such rights against any other Obligor, and whether or not the Agent and the Banks elect to exercise any rights or remedies against any other Person or property including, without limitation, any other Obligor: (1) the failure of any Guarantor to perform any covenant or obligation hereunder; (2) the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement; (3) except as otherwise permitted pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, the sale of all or substantially all of the assets, or change in ownership, or the dissolution, merger, consolidation or reorganization of any Guarantor; (4) any information or signature heretofore or hereafter furnished to the Agent or any Bank by any Guarantor, or delivered to the Agent or any Bank by an Obligor in connection with any of the Debtor Liabilities, is materially false or incorrect at the time when made; or (5) the failure of any Guarantor or any Obligor to furnish the Agent and the Banks such financial and other information as required by the Loan Documents.

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

NOTICE TO THE AGENT AND THE BANKS BY THE GUARANTORS. Any notice to the Agent or the Banks by the Guarantors pursuant to the provisions hereof shall be given as provided in the Credit Agreement and such notice shall be effective as provided in the Credit Agreement.

Notice by the Guarantors shall not, in any way, reduce, diminish or release the liability of any other Obligor. In the event that this Agreement is preceded or followed by any other guaranty or surety agreement(s) regarding the Debtors or any other Person, all rights granted to the Agent and the Banks in such agreement(s) shall be deemed to be cumulative and this Agreement shall not, in such event, be deemed to be cancelled, superseded, terminated or in any way limited.

COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterpart copies and by the parties hereto on separate counterparts, but all such copies shall constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of signature page to this Agreement by facsimile transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart. Any party so executing this Agreement by facsimile transmission shall promptly deliver a manually executed counterpart, provided that any failure to do so shall not affect the validity of the counterpart executed by facsimile transmission.

MISCELLANEOUS. This Agreement shall be binding upon the Guarantors and the Guarantors’ successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of the Agent and the Banks, their respective endorsers, successors and assigns forever. If any provision of this Agreement shall for any reason be held to be invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision hereof, but this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. All matters arising hereunder shall be governed by the Laws of the State of New York without regard to the conflicts of laws thereof, and the parties hereto agree to the jurisdiction and venue of the Supreme Court of New York County and the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York with respect to any suit arising in connection herewith.

WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY. THE UNDERSIGNED HEREBY EXPRESSLY, KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVE ALL BENEFIT AND ADVANTAGE OF ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY, AND THEY WILL NOT AT ANY TIME INSIST UPON, OR PLEAD OR IN ANY MANNER WHATSOEVER CLAIM OR TAKE THE BENEFIT OR ADVANTAGE OF A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.

IN CONSIDERATION of credit granted or to be granted by PNC Bank, National Association (“PNC Bank”) and various other financial institutions from time to time (PNC Bank and such other financial institutions are each a “Bank” and collectively, the “Banks”) pursuant to that certain Credit Agreement, dated the 31^st day of January, 2006, by and among Papa John’s International, Inc., a Delaware corporation, as Borrower, the Guarantors (as defined in the Credit Agreement), RSC Insurance Services Ltd., a Bermuda company (“RSC”), the Banks and PNC Bank, as Administrative Agent for the Banks (in such capacity, the “Agent”) (as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), intending to be legally bound hereby, and to induce the Banks to issue letters of credit for the account of RSC (the “Debtor”), Papa John’s International, Inc. a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower/RSC Guarantor”), this 31^st day of January, 2006, hereby jointly and severally with each of the Guarantors (as defined in the Credit Agreement):

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

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

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

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

5. Warrants that the address specified on the signature page hereof, immediately below the Borrower/RSC Guarantor’s name, is the Borrower/RSC Guarantor’s true and correct address, and agrees to notify the Agent, in the manner hereinafter specified, within three (3) days after any change in the Borrower/RSC Guarantor’s address.

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

EXTENT OF THE BORROWER/RSC GUARANTOR’S LIABILITY. This Agreement shall be and is intended to be an absolute and unconditional guaranty and suretyship for the aggregate of the Debtor Liabilities. The Agent may apply any payment received on account of the Debtor Liabilities in such order as the Banks, in their sole discretion, may elect. The obligations of the Borrower/RSC Guarantor under this Agreement, when construed collectively with the obligations of (i) the Guarantors under that certain Guaranty and Suretyship Agreement, dated of even date herewith, and made by the Guarantors for the benefit of the Agent and the Banks, and (ii) any other Person that becomes a Guarantor in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, are intended to be the joint and several obligations of the Borrower/RSC Guarantor, the Guarantors and such other Persons that become Guarantors under the Credit Agreement, and this Agreement, when construed in connection with such other Guaranty and Suretyship Agreements, is intended to be an absolute and unconditional guaranty and suretyship for the aggregate of the Debtor Liabilities.

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

Obligor for payment or performance of any or all of the Debtor Liabilities; or (v) from time to time, the payment in full and subsequent incurring of any Debtor Liabilities.

RIGHT OF SET-OFF. If any liability of the Borrower/RSC Guarantor hereunder is not paid to the Agent when due, the Agent and the Banks may forthwith, at any time and from time to time without notice to the Borrower/RSC Guarantor, any right to such notice being hereby expressly waived by the Borrower/RSC Guarantor: set-off, appropriate and apply against the liabilities of the Borrower/RSC Guarantor hereunder (i) any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, excluding, however, trust accounts for Benefit Arrangements), in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held by the Agent or any Bank, not to exceed the amount then due, as the Agent or such Bank may elect, whether or not the Agent or such Bank shall have made any demand for payment and (ii) any and all moneys owed by the Agent or any Bank to the Borrower/RSC Guarantor in any capacity, whether or not then due, and whether provisionally or finally credited upon the Agent’s and the Banks’ books and records.

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

No payment by the Borrower/RSC Guarantor shall entitle any other Obligor, by subrogation, contribution, indemnification or otherwise, to succeed to any of the rights of the Agent and the Banks, including rights to any payment made on account of the Debtor Liabilities, regardless of the source of such payment until all of the Debtor’s obligations to the Agent and the Banks under the Credit Agreement are satisfied in full and are not subject to any right of disgorgement. The Borrower/RSC Guarantor hereby waives any benefit of and any right to participate in any collateral security now or hereafter held by the Agent and the Banks or any failure or refusal by the Agent and the Banks to perfect an interest in any collateral security.

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

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

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

Agent. The Borrower/RSC Guarantor acknowledges that the term “Debtor Liabilities” as used herein includes any payments made by the Debtor to the Agent or the Banks and subsequently recovered by the Debtor or a trustee for the Debtor pursuant to bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings.

ACCELERATION OF THE BORROWER/RSC GUARANTOR’S LIABILITIES. Upon the occurrence of any of the following events, all of the Debtor Liabilities, at the Agent’s and the Banks’ option, shall be deemed to be forthwith due and payable for the purposes of this Agreement and for determining the liability of the Borrower/RSC Guarantor hereunder, whether or not the Agent and the Banks have any such rights against any other Obligor, and whether or not the Agent and the Banks elect to exercise any rights or remedies against any other Person or property including, without limitation, any other Obligor: (1) the failure of the Borrower/RSC Guarantor to perform any covenant or obligation hereunder; (2) the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement; (3) except as otherwise permitted pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, the sale of all or substantially all of the assets, or change in ownership, or the dissolution, merger, consolidation or reorganization of any Guarantor; (4) any information or signature heretofore or hereafter furnished to the Agent or any Bank by the Borrower/RSC Guarantor, or delivered to the Agent or any Bank by an Obligor in connection with any of the Debtor Liabilities, is materially false or incorrect at the time when made; or (5) the failure of the Borrower/RSC Guarantor or any Obligor to furnish the Agent and the Banks such financial and other information as required by the Loan Documents.

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

NOTICE TO THE AGENT AND THE BANKS BY THE BORROWER/RSC GUARANTOR. Any notice to the Agent or the Banks by the Borrower/RSC Guarantor pursuant to the provisions hereof shall be given as provided in the Credit Agreement and such notice shall be effective as provided in the Credit Agreement.

Notice by the Borrower/RSC Guarantor shall not, in any way, reduce, diminish or release the liability of any other Obligor. In the event that this Agreement is preceded or followed by any other guaranty or surety agreement(s) regarding the Debtor or any other Person, all rights granted to the Agent and the Banks in such agreement(s) shall be deemed to be cumulative and this Agreement shall not, in such event, be deemed to be cancelled, superseded, terminated or in any way limited.

MISCELLANEOUS. This Agreement shall be binding upon the Borrower/RSC Guarantor and the Borrower/RSC Guarantor’s successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the Agent and the Banks, their respective endorsers, successors and assigns forever. If any provision of this Agreement shall for any reason be held to be invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision hereof, but this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. All matters arising hereunder shall be governed by the Laws of the State of New York without regard to the conflicts of laws thereof, and the parties hereto agree to the jurisdiction and venue of the Supreme Court of New York County and the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York with respect to any suit arising in connection herewith.

WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY. THE UNDERSIGNED HEREBY EXPRESSLY, KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ALL BENEFIT AND ADVANTAGE OF ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY, AND IT WILL NOT AT ANY TIME INSIST UPON, OR PLEAD OR IN ANY MANNER WHATSOEVER CLAIM OR TAKE THE BENEFIT OR ADVANTAGE OF A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.

WHEREAS, the obligations of the Banks to maintain the Commitments and make Loans to the Borrower from time to time are subject to the condition, among others, that the Companies subordinate the Intercompany Indebtedness to the Indebtedness and all other Obligations of the Borrower or any other Company to the Agent or the Banks or any Affiliate of any Bank pursuant to the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents (collectively, the “Senior Debt”) in the manner set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto covenant and agree as follows:

1. Intercompany Indebtedness Subordinated to Senior Debt. The recitals set forth above are hereby incorporated by reference. All Intercompany Indebtedness shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior indefeasible payment in full of all Senior Debt pursuant to the provisions contained herein.

2. Payment Over of Proceeds Upon Dissolution, Etc. Upon any distribution of assets of any Company in the event of (a) any insolvency or bankruptcy case or proceeding, or any receivership, liquidation, reorganization or other similar case or proceeding in connection

therewith, relative to any such Company or to its creditors, as such, or to its assets, or (b) any liquidation, dissolution or other winding up of any such Company, whether voluntary or involuntary and whether or not involving insolvency or bankruptcy, or (c) any assignment for the benefit of creditors or any marshalling of assets and liabilities of any such Company (a Company distributing assets as set forth herein being referred to in such capacity as a “Distributing Company”), then and in any such event, the Agent shall be entitled to receive, for the benefit of the Agent and the Banks as their respective interests may appear, indefeasible payment in full of all amounts due or to become due (whether or not an Event of Default has occurred under the terms of the Loan Documents or the Senior Debt has been declared due and payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise have become due and payable) on or in respect of any and all Senior Debt before the holder of any Intercompany Indebtedness owed by the Distributing Company is entitled to receive any payment on account of the principal of or interest on such Intercompany Indebtedness, and to that end, the Agent shall be entitled to receive, for application to the payment of the Senior Debt, any payment or distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, which may be payable or deliverable in respect of the Intercompany Indebtedness owed by the Distributing Company in any such case, proceeding, dissolution, liquidation or other winding up event.

If, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, a Company which is owed Intercompany Indebtedness by a Distributing Company shall have received any payment or distribution of assets from the Distributing Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, then and in such event such payment or distribution shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Agent and the Banks as their respective interests may appear, shall be segregated from other funds and property held by such Company, and shall be forthwith paid over to the Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement) to be applied (in the case of cash) to or held as collateral (in the case of noncash property or securities) for the payment or prepayment of the Senior Debt in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement.

3. No Commencement of Any Proceeding. Each Company agrees that, so long as the Senior Debt shall remain unpaid, it will not commence, or join with any creditor other than the Banks and the Agent in commencing any proceeding referred to in the first paragraph of Section 2 against any other Company which owes it any Intercompany Indebtedness.

4. Prior Payment of Senior Debt Upon Acceleration of Intercompany Indebtedness. If any portion of the Intercompany Indebtedness owed by any Company becomes or is declared due and payable before its stated maturity, then and in such event the Agent and the Banks shall be entitled to receive indefeasible payment in full of all amounts due and to become due on or in respect of the Senior Debt (whether or not an Event of Default has occurred under the terms of the Loan Documents or the Senior Debt has been declared due and payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise have become due and payable) before the holder of any such Intercompany Indebtedness is entitled to receive any payment thereon.

If, notwithstanding the foregoing, any Company shall make any payment of Intercompany Indebtedness prohibited by the foregoing provisions of this Section, such payment shall be paid over and delivered forthwith to the Agent, for the benefit of the Agent and the Banks as their respective interests may appear.

The provisions of this Section shall not apply to any payment with respect to which Section 2 hereof would be applicable.

5. No Payment When Senior Debt in Default. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, or such an Event of Default or Potential Default would result from or exist after giving effect to a payment with respect to any portion of the Intercompany Indebtedness, unless the Required Banks shall have consented to or waived the same, so long as any of the Senior Debt shall remain outstanding, no payment shall be made by any Company owing such Intercompany Indebtedness on account of principal or interest on any portion of the Intercompany Indebtedness.

If, notwithstanding the foregoing, any Company shall make any payment of the Intercompany Indebtedness to another Company prohibited by the foregoing provisions of this Section, such payment shall be paid over and delivered forthwith to the Agent, for the benefit of the Agent and the Banks as their respective interests may appear.

The provisions of this Section shall not apply to any payment with respect to which Section 2 hereof would be applicable.

6. Payment Permitted if No Default. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prevent any of the Companies, at any time except during the pendency of any of the conditions described in Sections 2, 4 and 5, from making payments at any time of principal of or interest on any portion of the Intercompany Indebtedness, or the retention thereof by any of the Companies of any money deposited with them for the payment of or on account of the principal of or interest on the Intercompany Indebtedness.

7. Rights of Subrogation. Each Company agrees that no payment or distribution to the Agent or the Banks pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement shall entitle it to exercise any rights of subrogation in respect thereof until the Senior Debt shall have been indefeasibly paid in full and the Commitments shall have terminated.

8. Instruments Evidencing Intercompany Indebtedness. Each Company shall cause each instrument which now or hereafter evidences all or a portion of the Intercompany Indebtedness to be conspicuously marked as follows:

“This instrument is subject to the terms of an Intercompany Subordination Agreement dated January 31, 2006, in favor of PNC Bank, National Association, as administrative agent for the Banks referred to therein, which Intercompany Subordination Agreement is incorporated herein by reference. Notwithstanding any contrary statement contained in the within instrument, no payment on account of the principal thereof or interest thereon shall become due or payable except in accordance with the express terms of said Intercompany Subordination Agreement.”

Each Company will further xxxx its books of account in such a manner as shall be effective to give proper notice to the effect of this Agreement.

9. Agreement Solely to Define Relative Rights. The purpose of this Agreement is solely to define the relative rights of the Companies, on the one hand, and the Agent and the Banks, on the other hand. Nothing contained in this Agreement is intended to or shall impair, as between any of the Companies and their creditors other than the Agent and the Banks, the obligation of the Companies to each other to pay the principal of and interest on the Intercompany Indebtedness as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with its terms, or is intended to or shall affect the relative rights among the Companies and their creditors other than the Agent and the Banks, nor shall anything herein prevent any of the Companies from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable Law upon default under any agreement pursuant to which the Intercompany Indebtedness is created, subject to the rights, if any, under this Agreement of the Agent and the Banks to receive cash, property or securities otherwise payable or deliverable with respect to the Intercompany Indebtedness.

10. No Implied Waivers of Subordination. No right of the Agent or any Bank to enforce subordination, as herein provided, shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of any Company or by any act or failure to act by the Agent or any Bank, or by any non-compliance by any Company with the terms, provisions and covenants of any agreement pursuant to which the Intercompany Indebtedness is created, regardless of any knowledge thereof the Agent or any Bank may have or be otherwise charged with. Each Company by its acceptance hereof shall agree that, so long as there is Senior Debt outstanding or Commitments in effect under the Credit Agreement, such Company shall not agree to sell, assign, pledge, encumber or otherwise dispose of, or to compromise, the obligations of the other Companies with respect to their Intercompany Indebtedness, other than by means of payment of such Intercompany Indebtedness according to its terms, without the prior written consent of the Agent.

Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing paragraph, the Agent or any of the Banks may, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of or notice to the Companies except the Borrower to the extent provided in the Credit Agreement, without incurring responsibility to the Companies and without impairing or releasing the subordination provided in this Agreement or the obligations hereunder of the Companies to the Agent and the Banks, do any one or more of the following: (i) change the manner, place or terms of payment, or extend the time of payment, renew or alter the Senior Debt or otherwise amend or supplement the Senior Debt or the Loan Documents; (ii) sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with any property pledged, mortgaged or otherwise securing the Senior Debt; (iii) release any Person liable in any manner for the payment or collection of the Senior Debt; and (iv) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against any of the Companies and any other Person.

11. Additional Subsidiaries. The Companies covenant and agree that they shall cause any Subsidiaries required to join this Agreement pursuant to or otherwise under the Credit Agreement, to execute a Joinder in the form of Exhibit 1.1(G)(1) to the Credit Agreement, whereby such Subsidiary joins this Agreement and subordinates all Indebtedness owed to any such Subsidiary by any of the Companies or other Subsidiaries hereafter created or acquired to the Senior Debt.

12. Continuing Force and Effect. This Agreement shall continue in force for so long as any portion of the Senior Debt remains unpaid and any Commitments under the Credit

Agreement remain outstanding, it being contemplated that this Agreement be of a continuing nature.

13. Modification, Amendments or Waivers. Any and all agreements amending or changing any provision of this Agreement or the rights of the Agent or the Banks hereunder, and any and all waivers or consents to Events of Default or other departures from the due performance of the Companies hereunder, shall be made only by written agreement, waiver or consent signed by the Agent, acting on behalf of all the Banks, with the written consent of the Required Banks, any such agreement, waiver or consent made with such written consent being effective to bind all the Banks.

14. Expenses. The Companies unconditionally and jointly and severally agree upon demand to pay to the Agent and the Banks the amount of any and all reasonable and necessary out-of-pocket costs, expenses and disbursements for which reimbursement is customarily obtained, including fees and expenses of counsel, which the Agent or any of the Banks may incur in connection with (a) the administration of this Agreement, (b) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of the Agent or the Banks hereunder, or (c) the failure by the Companies to perform or observe any of the provisions hereof.

15. Severability. The provisions of this Agreement are intended to be severable. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, such provision shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without in any manner affecting the validity or enforceability thereof in any other jurisdiction or the remaining provisions hereof in any jurisdiction.

16. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be a contract under the internal Laws of the State of New York and for all purposes shall be construed in accordance with the internal Laws of the State of New York without giving effect to its principles of conflict of Laws.

17. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the Agent and the Banks and their respective successors and assigns, as permitted in the Credit Agreement, and the obligations of the Companies shall be binding upon their respective successors and assigns. The duties and obligations of the Companies may not be delegated or transferred by the Companies without the written consent of the Required Banks and any such delegation or transfer without such consent shall be null and void. Except to the extent otherwise required by the context of this Agreement, the word “Banks” when used herein shall include, without limitation, any holder of a Note or an assignment of rights therein originally issued to a Bank under the Credit Agreement, and each such holder of a Note or assignment shall have the benefits of this Agreement to the same extent as if such holder had originally been a Bank under the Credit Agreement.

18. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

19. Attorneys-in-Fact. Each of the Companies hereby authorizes and empowers the Agent, at its election and in the name of either itself, for the benefit of the Agent and the Banks as their respective interests may appear, or in the name of each such Company as is owed Intercompany Indebtedness, to execute and file proofs and documents and take any other action the Agent may deem advisable to completely protect the Agent’s and the Banks’ interests in the Intercompany Indebtedness and their right of enforcement thereof, and to that end each of the Companies hereby irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints the Agent, its officers, employees and agents, or any of them, with full power of substitution, as the true and lawful attorney-in-fact and agent of such Company, and with full power for such Company, and in the name, place and stead of such Company for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Agreement, and taking any action and executing, delivering, filing and recording any instruments which the Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof, which power of attorney, being given for security, is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable. Each Company hereby ratifies and confirms, and agrees to ratify and confirm, all action taken by the Agent, its officers, employees or agents pursuant to the foregoing power of attorney.

20. Application of Payments. In the event any payments are received by the Agent under the terms of this Agreement for application to the Senior Debt at any time when the Senior Debt has not been declared due and payable and prior to the date on which it would otherwise become due and payable, such payment shall constitute a voluntary prepayment of the Senior Debt for all purposes under the Credit Agreement.

21. Remedies. In the event of a breach by any of the Companies in the performance of any of the terms of this Agreement, the Agent, on behalf of the Banks, may demand specific performance of this Agreement and seek injunctive relief and may exercise any other remedy available at law or in equity, it being recognized that the remedies of the Agent on behalf of the Banks at law may not fully compensate the Agent on behalf of the Banks for the damages they may suffer in the event of a breach hereof.

22. Consent to Jurisdiction, Waiver of Jury Trial. Each of the Companies hereby irrevocably consents to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of New York County and the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, waives personal service of any and all process upon it and consents that all such service of process be made by certified or registered mail directed to the Companies at the addresses referred to in Section 23 hereof and service so made shall be deemed to be completed upon actual receipt thereof. Each of the Companies waives any objection to jurisdiction and venue of any action instituted against it as provided herein and agrees not to assert any defense based on lack of jurisdiction or venue, AND EACH OF THE COMPANIES WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT TO THE FULL EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.
