2. REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY

2.1 Revolving Credit Commitments.

2.1.1 Generally.  Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, and relying upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, each Bank severally agrees to make Revolving Credit Loans to each Borrower at any time or from time to time on or after the date hereof to the Expiration Date; provided that after giving effect to such Loans, (i) the aggregate amount of Ratable Share of Loans and Ratable Share of Letters of Credit Outstanding of such Bank shall not exceed such Bank’s Revolving Credit Commitment and (ii) the aggregate outstanding amount of Revolving Credit Loans, together with (but without duplication) the Letters of Credit Outstanding, shall not exceed the Aggregate Commitment; provided, further, that Revolving Facility Usage may never exceed the Maximum Availability.  Within such limits of time and amount and subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, each Borrower may borrow, repay and re-borrow pursuant to this Section 2.1.  Each Borrower shall, on or before the day of the delivery of reports under Section 7.3 that show an excess of Revolving Facility Usage over Maximum Availability, prepay the principal amount of the Loans to the extent of such excess.  As used herein, “Maximum Availability” shall mean, as of any date of calculation, five (5) times Eligible RMR.

33

Maximum Availability shall be calculated considering Permitted Acquisitions completed during the period of determination, giving effect to such Permitted Acquisitions for the period of determination on a pro forma basis.

2.1.2 Reduction of Revolving Credit Commitment.  Subject to compliance with Section 4.6.2, each Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time upon five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice to Agent to reduce the Commitments by $2,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 to an aggregate amount not less than $35,000,000 or to terminate entirely the Commitments, whereupon the Commitments of the Banks shall be reduced pro rata in accordance with their respective Ratable Share of the amount specified in such notice or, as the case may be, terminated.  Promptly after receiving any notice of any Borrower delivered pursuant to this Section 2.1.2, Agent will notify the Banks of the substance thereof.  Upon the effective date of any such reduction or termination, such Borrower shall pay to Agent for the respective accounts of the Banks the full amount of any Unused Line Fee then accrued on the amount of the reduction.  No reduction or termination of the Commitments may be reinstated.

2.1.3 [Reserved].

2.1.4 Prepayment of Overadvance.  At any time when (i) the reports under Section 7.3 show an excess of Revolving Facility Usage over the lesser of the Maximum Availability or the Aggregate Commitment or (ii) Agent has otherwise determined, in its reasonable good faith judgment from the perspective of a senior secured lender, that such an excess exists, each Borrower shall promptly (and in any event within two (2) Business Days) prepay the principal amount of the Loans to the extent of such excess (or to extent such excess is solely on account of Letters of Credit Outstanding, deliver to Agent an amount of cash equal to 102.5% of such excess as additional collateral for the Letters of Credit Outstanding).

2.2 Nature of Banks’ Obligations with Respect to Revolving Credit Loans.  Each Bank shall be obligated to participate in each request for Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to Section 2.4 in accordance with its Ratable Share.  The aggregate of each Bank’s Ratable Share of Revolving Facility Usage outstanding hereunder to Borrowers at any time shall never exceed its Revolving Credit Commitment.  The obligations of each Bank hereunder are several.  The failure of any Bank to perform its obligations hereunder shall not affect the Obligations of each Borrower to any other party nor shall any other party be liable for the failure of such Bank to perform its obligations hereunder.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no Bank shall have an obligation to a Loan Party to make any Loan or issue any Letter of Credit, if an Event of Default or a Potential Default exists, or after the Expiration Date; provided, however, that this sentence shall not in any event excuse, limit or otherwise affect a Bank’s obligations to Agent (including, without limitation, Bank shall remain liable for its obligations under (i) Section 9.15 unless such Bank has notified Agent in accordance with Section 9.15 and (ii) Section 2.8.3.2).

2.3 Unused Line Fee.  Accruing from the date hereof until the Expiration Date, the Loan Parties agree to pay to Agent for the account of each Bank, as consideration for such Bank’s Revolving Credit Commitment hereunder, a nonrefundable unused line fee (the “Unused Line Fee”) equal to the product of (a) the daily average for each Bank of the excess of (1) such

34

Bank’s Commitment, over (2) the aggregate amount Ratable Share of Loans and (without duplication) Ratable Share of Letters of Credit Outstanding with respect to such Bank, and (b) 0.75% per annum; provided, however, that the rate set forth in clause (b) shall be reduced to 0.50% for the next succeeding Month after the occurrence of two (2) consecutive Months in which the following conditions have been met:  (i) the daily average of Loans outstanding during each such Month exceeded $22,500,000, and (ii) the amount of Loans outstanding during each such Month was not less than $22,500,000 for more than five (5) Business Days during each such Month.  The Unused Line Fee shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, and actual days elapsed and shall be payable in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December after the Closing Date and on the Expiration Date or upon acceleration of the Obligations.  Borrowers shall pay all fees provided for under the Fee Letter as when such fees are due and payable.

2.4 Revolving Credit Loan Requests.  Except as otherwise provided herein, each Borrower may from time to time prior to the Expiration Date request the Banks to make Revolving Credit Loans, or renew existing Revolving Credit Loans for the same or a different Interest Period pursuant to Section 3.2, by delivering to Agent, not later than 2:00 p.m., Washington, D.C. time, three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed Borrowing Date a duly completed request therefor substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.4 or a request by telephone immediately confirmed in writing by letter or facsimile in such form (each, a “Loan Request”), it being understood that Agent may rely on the authority of any individual making such a telephonic request without the necessity of receipt of such written confirmation.  Each Loan Request shall be irrevocable and shall specify (i) the proposed Borrowing Date; (ii) the aggregate amount of the proposed Loans comprising each Borrowing Tranche, which shall be in integral multiples of $100,000 and not less than $1,000,000 for each Borrowing Tranche; and (iii) an appropriate Interest Period for the Loans comprising such Borrowing Tranche.  Except as set forth to the contrary in Section 3.4, all Loans made pursuant to this Agreement shall be LIBO-Rate Loans.

2.5 Making Revolving Credit Loans.  Agent shall, promptly after receipt by it of a Loan Request pursuant to Section 2.4, notify the Banks of its receipt of such Loan Request specifying:  (i) the proposed Borrowing Date and the time and method of disbursement of the Revolving Credit Loans requested thereby; (ii) the amount of each such Revolving Credit Loan and the applicable Interest Period (if any); and (iii) the apportionment among the Banks of such Revolving Credit Loans as determined by Agent in accordance with Section 2.2.  Each Bank shall remit the principal amount of each Revolving Credit Loan to Agent such that Agent is able to, and Agent shall, to the extent the Banks have made funds available to it for such purpose and subject to Section 6.2, fund such Revolving Credit Loans to such Borrower in U.S. Dollars and immediately available funds at the Principal Office prior to 2:00 p.m., Washington, D.C. time, on the applicable Borrowing Date, provided that if any Bank has not notified Agent prior to the date on which it is scheduled to make payment to Agent that it does not intend to make such payment and fails to remit such funds to Agent in a timely manner, Agent may elect in its sole discretion to fund with its own funds the Revolving Credit Loans of such Bank on such Borrowing Date, and such Bank shall be subject to the repayment obligation in Section 9.15.

35

2.6 Evidence of Revolving Credit Loans.

(a) Agent shall maintain, in accordance with its usual practice, electronic or written records evidencing the indebtedness and obligations to each Bank resulting from each Loan made by such Bank from time to time, including without limitation, the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Bank from time to time under this Agreement.

(b) The entries made in the electronic or written records maintained pursuant to this Section 2.6 (the “Register”) shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations and indebtedness therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of Agent to maintain such records or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligations of any Borrower to repay the Loans or Obligations in accordance with their terms.

(c) Each Borrower agrees that:

(i) each Bank may request that Borrower issue to it one or more Revolving Credit Notes by giving written notice to Borrower, and Borrower shall promptly (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days of any such request) execute and deliver to such Bank one or more Revolving Credit Notes payable to the order of such Bank in an aggregate principal amount equal to such Bank’s Revolving Credit Commitment;

(ii) all references to Revolving Credit Notes in the Loan Documents shall mean Revolving Credit Notes, if any, to the extent issued (and not returned to such Borrower for cancellation) hereunder, as the same may be amended, modified, divided, supplemented and/or restated from time to time; and

(iii) upon written request of any Bank, and in any event within ten (10) Business Days of any such request, Borrowers shall execute and deliver to such Bank new Revolving Credit Notes (on substantially the same terms and in substantially the same form) and/or divide the Revolving Credit Notes in exchange for the existing Revolving Credit Notes in such smaller amounts or denominations as such Bank shall specify in its sole and absolute discretion; provided that the aggregate principal amount of such new Revolving Credit Notes shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Credit Notes outstanding at the time such request is made; and provided, further, that such Revolving Credit Notes that are to be replaced shall then be deemed no longer outstanding hereunder and replaced by such new Revolving Credit Notes and shall be marked as cancelled and returned to the Borrowers within ten (10) Business Days after such Bank’s receipt of the replacement Revolving Credit Notes.

2.7 Use of Proceeds.  The proceeds of the Revolving Credit Loans shall be used for the purposes described in and in accordance with Section 7.1.11.

2.8 Letter of Credit Subfacility.

2.8.1 Issuance of Letters of Credit.  Each Borrower may request the issuance of a letter of credit (each a “Letter of Credit”) on behalf of itself or another Loan Party by delivering or having such other Loan Party deliver to Agent and the L/C Issuer a completed application and agreement for letters of credit in such form as the L/C Issuer may specify from time to time, including a master letter of credit agreement or reimbursement agreement in the form, if any, being used by the L/C Issuer at such time, by no later than 2:00 p.m., Washington, D.C. time, at least three (3) Business Days, or such shorter period as may be agreed to by Agent

36

and the L/C Issuer, in advance of the proposed date of issuance.  Each Letter of Credit shall be a standby letter of credit (and may not be a commercial letter of credit).  Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and in reliance on the agreements of the other Banks set forth in this Section 2.8.1, Agent shall cause the L/C Issuer to issue a Letter of Credit provided that (x) 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 and (y) in no event shall (i) the Letters of Credit Outstanding (other than Letter of Credit Borrowings that constitute Revolving Credit Loans) exceed, at any one time, $1,000,000 or (ii) the Revolving Facility Usage exceed, at any one time, the Revolving Credit Commitments.

2.8.2 Letter of Credit Fees.  Each Borrower shall pay (i) to Agent for the ratable account of the Banks a fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) described in the definition of “Applicable Margin” (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed) and (ii) to Agent for its own account or the account of the L/C Issuer a fronting fee (according to Agent’s standard fee schedule and computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed), which fees shall be computed on the daily average Letters of Credit Outstanding and shall be payable quarterly in arrears commencing with the first Business Day of each March, June, September and December following issuance of each Letter of Credit and on the Expiration Date.  Each Borrower shall also pay to Agent for Agent’s sole account Agent’s then in effect customary fees and administrative expenses payable with respect to the Letters of Credit as 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.

2.8.3 Disbursements, Reimbursement.

2.8.3.1 The L/C Issuer shall issue all Letters of Credits hereunder.  The terms applicable to each such Letter of Credit shall be as set forth in the L/C Issuer’s letter of credit documentation, if not set forth in this Agreement.

2.8.3.2 In the event of any request for a drawing under a Letter of Credit by the beneficiary or transferee thereof, the L/C Issuer will promptly notify each Borrower.  Provided that it shall have received such notice, such Borrower shall reimburse (such obligation to reimburse Agent shall sometimes be referred to as a “Reimbursement Obligation”) the L/C Issuer prior to 12:00 Noon, Washington, D.C. time on each date that an amount is paid by the L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit (each such date, an “Drawing Date”) in an amount equal to the amount so paid by the L/C Issuer.  Any notice given by Agent pursuant to this Section 2.8.3.2 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.  If otherwise permitted under this Agreement, any Borrower may pay any such amount from the proceeds of a Revolving Credit Loan.  In any event, Agent may pay (but shall not be obligated to pay) any such amount from the proceeds of a Revolving Credit Loan even if such Revolving Credit Loan would not otherwise be permitted under this Agreement (each a “Letter of Credit Borrowing”).  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 LIBO-Rate Loans.  Each Bank shall, to the extent of its Ratable Share of the aggregate amount of all disbursements made with respect to any Letter of Credit, be deemed to have irrevocably

37

purchased an undivided participation in each Revolving Credit Loan made as a consequence of such disbursement.  Each Bank shall make the amount of its participation in such Revolving Credit Loan available to Agent not later than 12:00 Noon, Washington, D.C. time on the Business Day following such Revolving Credit Loan in same day funds by wire transfer to Agent’s account, and participation not so funded to Agent shall bear interest that is payable by such Bank to Agent in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date the disbursement was funded by Agent and ending on the date Agent recovers such disbursement, at a rate per annum equal to the applicable interest rate in respect of such Revolving Credit Loan.  The obligations of a Bank to make payments to Agent, for the account of Agent or the L/C Issuer, with respect to a Letter of Credit shall be irrevocable, without any qualification or exception whatsoever and shall be made in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement under all circumstances, including, without limitation, any of the following circumstances:  (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents; (ii) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that any Loan Party may have at any time against a beneficiary named in such Letter of Credit or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for which any such transferee may be acting), Agent, L/C Issuer, any Bank, or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, such Letter of Credit, the transactions contemplated herein or any related transactions (including any underlying transactions between a Loan Party or any other party and the beneficiary named in such Letter of Credit); (iii) any draft, certificate or any other document presented under such Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; (iv) the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents; (v) any failure by Agent to provide any notices required pursuant to this Agreement relating to such Letter of Credit; (vi) any payment by the L/C Issuer under any of the Letters of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate which does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit (if, in the good faith opinion of the L/C Issuer, such prepayment is deemed to be appropriate); or (vii) the occurrence and continuation of any Potential Default or Event of Default.

2.8.3.3 Each Borrower’s and the other Loan Parties’ obligations to make all payments in respect of Letters of Credit or Letters of Credit Outstanding required under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or the documentation referred to in Sections 2.8.3.1 and 2.8.4, including any Reimbursement Obligation, shall be an “Obligation” hereunder and secured and payable pari passu along with all other Obligations.  All such payments referred to in this Section 2.8.3 shall be for the account of the L/C Issuer and shall not be distributed according to Section 4.2 or otherwise in accordance with the Banks’ Ratable Shares.

2.8.3.4 On demand by Agent at any time following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default or on the Expiration Date, Borrowers will cause to be deposited and maintained in an account as directed by Agent, cash collateral in an amount equal to 102.5% of the aggregate amount of Letters of Credit Outstanding, and each Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes Agent, in its discretion, on Borrowers’ behalf and in such Borrower’s name, to open such an account and to make and maintain deposits therein, or in an account opened by such Borrower.  No Borrower may withdraw amounts credited to any such account except upon the earlier of (i) indefeasible payment and performance in full of all Obligations (other than indemnity obligations under the Loan Documents that are not then due

38

and payable or for which any events or claims that would give rise thereto are not then pending), termination of this Agreement and termination, replacement or cash collateralization of all then outstanding Letters of Credit in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and (ii) at such time as such Event of Default no longer exists, unless Agent determines in its sole discretion not to release such amounts.  Agent hereby agrees that in the event cash collateral is deposited with Agent in accordance with this Section 2.8.3.4, the Letters of Credit Outstanding shall be deemed to be reduced by the amount of such cash collateral for purposes of calculating Revolving Facility Usage.

2.8.4 Documentation.  Each Loan Party agrees to be bound by the terms of the L/C Issuer’s application and agreement for Letters of Credit and the L/C Issuer’s written regulations and customary practices relating to Letters of Credit, though such interpretation may be different from such Loan Party’s 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 L/C Issuer shall not be liable for any error, negligence and/or mistakes, whether of omission or commission, in following any Loan Party’s instructions or those contained in the Letters of Credit or any modifications, amendments or supplements thereto.

2.8.5 Determinations to Honor Drawing Requests.  In determining whether to honor any request for drawing under any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof, the L/C Issuer 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.

2.8.6 Indemnity.  In addition to amounts payable as provided in Section 9.5, each Borrower hereby agrees to protect, indemnify, pay and save harmless the L/C Issuer 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 L/C Issuer 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 L/C Issuer as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or (B) the wrongful dishonor by the L/C Issuer 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”).

2.8.7 Liability for Acts and Omissions.  As between any Loan Party and the L/C Issuer, such Loan Party 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 L/C Issuer shall not be responsible for any of the following including any losses or damages to any Loan Party 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, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged (unless the L/C Issuer shall have specific knowledge 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 (except for failures obvious on their face) or any other claim of any Loan Party against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit, or any such transferee, or any dispute between or among any Loan Party 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, cable, telegraph, 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 L/C Issuer, including any Governmental Acts, and none of the above shall affect or impair, or prevent the vesting of, any of the L/C Issuer’s rights or powers hereunder.  Nothing in the preceding sentence shall relieve the L/C Issuer from liability for the L/C Issuer’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction in connection with actions or omissions described in such clauses (i) through (viii) of such sentence.  In no event shall the L/C Issuer be liable to any Loan Party 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.

2.9 Loan Party Representation; Reliance.  Each Loan Party irrevocably appoints Interface as its agent for all purposes relevant to this Agreement and all other Loan Documents,

40

including the giving and receipt of notices and execution and delivery of all documents, instruments, and certificates contemplated herein and therein and all modifications hereto and thereto.  Any acknowledgment, consent, direction, certification, or other action which might otherwise be valid or effective only if given, taken or received by all or any Loan Party acting singly, shall be valid and effective if given, taken or received only by an authorized officer of Interface, whether or not any other Borrower joins therein, and Agent and Banks shall have no duty or obligation to make further inquiry with respect to the authority of Interface under this Section 2.9, provided that nothing in this Section 2.9 shall limit the effectiveness of, or the right of Agent and the Banks to require and rely upon, any notice, document, instrument, certificate, acknowledgment, consent, direction, certification, or other action to be delivered by an authorized officer of each Loan Party pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.  With respect to any action hereunder, Agent and Banks may conclusively rely upon, and shall incur no liability to any Loan Party in acting upon, any request or other communication that Agent and Banks reasonably believes to have been given or made by an authorized officer on such or any Loan Party’s behalf, whether or not such Person is listed on the incumbency certificate delivered pursuant to this Agreement.

3. INTEREST RATES

3.1 Interest Rate.  Each Borrower shall pay interest in respect of the outstanding unpaid principal amount of the Loans as set forth below, it being understood that, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, each Borrower may select different Interest Periods to apply simultaneously to the Loans comprising different Borrowing Tranches and may renew all or any portion of the Loans comprising any Borrowing Tranche for the same or a different Interest Period, provided that there shall not be at any one time outstanding more than five (5) Borrowing Tranches in the aggregate among all LIBO-Rate 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.  Loans shall bear interest by reference to the Base Rate only in the circumstances described in Section 3.4.

3.1.1 Revolving Credit Interest Rate.  Revolving Credit Loans shall bear interest at a fluctuating rate per annum (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, and actual days elapsed) equal to the LIBO-Rate, plus the Applicable Margin; provided, however, that under the circumstances described in Section 3.4, the Revolving Credit Loans shall instead bear interest at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin, which rate shall change automatically from time to time effective as of the date of each change in the Base Rate.

3.1.2 Amount of Borrowing Tranche.  Each Borrowing Tranche of LIBO-Rate Loans shall be in integral multiples of $100,000 and not less than $1,000,000 and the Borrowing Tranche of Base Rate Loans shall be not less than $100,000.

3.1.3 Rate Quotations.  Each Borrower may call Agent on or before the date on which a Loan Request is to be delivered to receive an indication of the rates then in effect, but it is acknowledged that such projection shall not be binding on Agent or the Banks nor affect the rate of interest which thereafter is actually in effect when the election is made.

41

3.2 Interest Periods.  At any time when Borrowers shall request a new Revolving Credit Loan or renew an existing Revolving Credit Loan (for the same or a different Interest Period), Borrowers shall notify Agent thereof at least three (3) Business Days prior to the date on which the LIBO-Rate Loan is to be made or renewed by delivering a Loan Request.  The notice shall specify the Interest Period to apply to the new or renewed Revolving Credit Loan.  Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, in the case of the renewal of a LIBO-Rate Loan 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 and during the continuance of an Event of Default, unless the Required Banks otherwise consent, the interest rate applicable to each Loan shall be increased by 2% (and, in the case of Obligations not bearing interest, such Obligations shall bear interest at the LIBO-Rate plus 2%) until such time as each then existing Event of Default shall have been waived in writing in accordance with this Agreement; provided, however, that such increase may thereafter be rescinded by the Required Banks.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under Section 8.1.1(i), 8.1.1(ii), 8.1.10, 8.1.14 or 8.1.15, such increase shall occur automatically.

3.3.1 Acknowledgment.  Each Borrower acknowledges that the increase in rates referred to in this Section 3.3 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 increased interest shall be payable by each Borrower upon demand by Agent.

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

3.4.1 Unascertainable.  If on any date on which a LIBO-Rate would otherwise be determined, Agent shall have determined that:

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

(ii) a contingency has occurred which adversely affects the London interbank eurodollar market relating to the LIBO-Rate,

Agent shall have the rights specified in Section 3.4.3.

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 LIBO-Rate Loan 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 LIBO-Rate will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Bank of the establishment or maintenance of any such Loan, or

42

(iii) after making all reasonable efforts, deposits of the relevant amount in Dollars for the relevant Interest Period for a Loan, or to banks generally, to which a LIBO-Rate applies, respectively, are not available to such Bank with respect to such Loan, or to banks generally, in the interbank eurodollar market,

then Agent shall have the rights specified in Section 3.4.3.

3.4.3 Agent’s and Bank’s Rights.  In the case of any event specified in Section 3.4.1 above, Agent shall promptly so notify the Banks and each Borrower thereof, and in the case of an event specified in Section 3.4.2 above, such Bank shall promptly so notify Agent and endorse a certificate to such notice as to the specific circumstances of such notice, and Agent shall promptly send copies of such notice and certificate to the other Banks and each Borrower.  Upon such date as shall be specified in such notice (which shall not be earlier than the date such notice is given), (i) all outstanding Revolving Credit Loans made by the Banks shall be converted to Base Rate Loans and all new Revolving Credit Loans shall be made as Base Rate Loans, in the case of such notice given by Agent, or (ii) all outstanding Revolving Credit Loans made by such Bank shall be converted to Base Rate Loans and all new Revolving Credit Loans made by such Bank shall be made as Base Rate Loans, in the case of notice given by a Bank.  Five (5) Business Days after the date when Agent shall have later notified Borrowers, or such Bank shall have later notified Agent, of Agent’s or such Bank’s, as the case may be, determination that the circumstances giving rise to such previous determination no longer exist, all outstanding Revolving Credit Loans that are Base Rate Loans shall be converted to LIBO-Rate Loans with Interest Periods that have been selected by Borrowers by delivery of a Loan Request three (3) Business Days prior to the date of conversion, or one-Month Interest Periods if Borrowers make no selection.

3.5 Selection of Interest Rate Periods.  If any Borrower fails to select a new Interest Period to apply to any Borrowing Tranche of Loans at the expiration of an existing Interest Period applicable to such Borrowing Tranche in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.2, Borrowers shall be deemed to have renewed the Loans in such Borrowing Tranche for a one-Month Interest Period.

4. PAYMENTS

4.1 Payments.  All payments and prepayments to be made in respect of principal, interest, Unused Line Fees or other fees or amounts due from each Borrower hereunder shall be payable prior to 2:00 p.m., Washington, D.C., time, on the date when due without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by each Borrower, and without set-off, counterclaim, defense or other deduction of any nature, and an action therefor shall immediately accrue.  Such payments shall be made to Agent at the Principal Office by wire transfer to the Agent Deposit Account for the ratable accounts of the Banks with respect to the Loans in U.S. Dollars and in immediately available funds, and Agent shall promptly distribute such amounts to the Banks in immediately available funds, provided that in the event payments are received by 2:00 p.m., Washington, D.C. time, by Agent with respect to the Loans and such payments are not distributed to the Banks on the same day received by Agent, Agent shall pay the Banks the Federal Funds Effective Rate with respect to the amount of such payments for each day held by Agent and not distributed to the Banks.  Agent’s and each

43

Bank’s statement of account, ledger or other relevant record shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive as the statement of the amount of principal of and interest on the Loans and other amounts owing under this Agreement and shall be deemed an “account stated.”  All Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations to the extent no claims giving rise thereto have been asserted) shall be automatically and immediately due and payable on the Expiration Date.

4.2 Pro Rata Treatment of Banks.  Each borrowing shall be allocated to each Bank according to its Ratable Share, and each selection of or renewal of any Revolving Credit Loan for any Interest Period and each payment or prepayment by each Borrower with respect to principal, interest, Unused Line Fees or other fees or amounts due from each Borrower hereunder to the Banks with respect to the Loans, shall (except as provided in Section 9.13) be made in proportion to the applicable Loans outstanding from each Bank and, if no such Loans are then outstanding, in proportion to the Ratable Share of each Bank.

4.3 Interest Payment Dates.  Interest on Base Rate Loans shall be due and payable in arrears on the first (1st) Business Day of each month after the date hereof and on the Expiration Date or upon acceleration of the Obligations.  Interest on LIBO-Rate Loans shall be due and payable on the last day (or if such last day is not a Business Day, the next Business Day immediately following such last day) of each Interest Period for those Loans.  Interest on mandatory prepayments of principal under Section 4.5 shall be due on the date such mandatory prepayment is due.  Interest on the principal amount of each Loan or other monetary Obligation shall be due and payable on demand after such principal amount or other monetary Obligation becomes due and payable (whether on the stated maturity date, upon acceleration or otherwise).

4.4 Voluntary Prepayments.

4.4.1 Right to Prepay.  Borrowers shall have the right at their option from time to time to prepay the Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty as provided in Section 2, Section 4.4.2 or in Section 4.6:

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

(ii) on the last day of the applicable Interest Period with respect to LIBO-Rate Loans (or on another date if the amounts required under Section 4.6.2 are paid contemporaneously therewith),

(iii) on the date specified in a notice by any Bank pursuant to Section 3.4 with respect to any LIBO-Rate Loans.

Whenever Borrowers desire to prepay any part of the Loans, it shall provide a prepayment notice to Agent by 2:00 p.m., Washington, D.C. time, one (1) Business Day before the date of prepayment of Loans setting forth the following information:

(x) the date, which shall be a Business Day, on which the proposed prepayment is to be made; and

44

(y) the total principal amount of such prepayment, which shall not be less than $100,000.

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 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.  Except as provided in Section 3.4.3, if any Borrower prepays a Loan, the prepayment shall be applied ratably to LIBO-Rate Loans and Base Rate Loans.  Any prepayment hereunder shall be subject to Borrowers’ obligations to indemnify the Banks under Section 4.6.2.

4.4.2 Defaulting Bank; Replacement of a Bank.  Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if any Bank defaults in its capacity as a Bank hereunder (a “Defaulting Bank”) in its obligation to make or fund (a “Funding Default”) any Loan or portion of any unreimbursed payment hereunder (in each case, a “Defaulted Loan”), then (a) during any Default Period with respect to such Defaulting Bank, such Defaulting Bank shall be deemed not to be a “Bank” for purposes of voting on any matters (including the granting of any consents or waivers) with respect to any of the Loan Documents; (b) to the extent permitted by applicable law, until such time as the Default Excess with respect to such Defaulting Bank shall have been reduced to zero, (i) any voluntary prepayment of the Loans shall be applied to the Loans of other Banks as if such Defaulting Bank had no Loans outstanding and the Commitment of such Defaulting Bank were zero, and (ii) any mandatory prepayment or repayment of the Loans shall be applied to the Loans of other Banks as if such Defaulting Bank had funded all Defaulted Loans of such Defaulting Bank; (c) such Defaulting Bank’s Commitment and outstanding Loans shall be excluded for purposes of calculating any fees payable pursuant to any Loan Document in respect of any day during any Default Period with respect to such Defaulting Bank; and (d) the balance of Loans outstanding as at any date of determination shall be calculated as if such Defaulting Bank had funded all Defaulted Loans of such Defaulting Bank.  No Commitment of any Bank shall be increased, extended, reinstated or otherwise affected, the principal of a Defaulting Bank’s Loans may not be reduced or forgiven, the applicable non-default interest rate applicable to the Obligations owing to a Defaulting Bank may not be reduced other than as provided elsewhere under the terms of this Agreement, and, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 4.4.2, performance by Loan Parties of their respective obligations hereunder and the other Loan Documents shall not be excused or otherwise modified, in each case solely as a result of any Funding Default or the operation of this Section 4.4.2.  The rights and remedies against a Defaulting Bank under this Section 4.4.2 are in addition to other rights and remedies that Borrowers may have against such Defaulting Bank with respect to any Funding Default and which Agent or any Bank may have against such Defaulting Bank with respect to any Funding Default.

Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) if any Bank shall become a Defaulting Bank and the Default Period for such Defaulting Bank shall remain in effect and such Defaulting Bank shall fail to cure the default as a result of which it has become a Defaulting Bank within five (5) Business Days after Interface requests that it cure such default, (ii) if any Bank shall become a Non-Consenting Bank, (iii) if any Bank gives notice under Section 3.4 or Section 4.6.1, (iv) if any Bank does not fund Revolving Credit Loans because the making of such Loans would contravene any Law applicable to such Bank, or (v) if any Bank or any parent of

45

any Bank becomes subject to the control of an Official Body (other than normal and customary supervision), then each Borrower shall have, during the one hundred twenty (120) period following such event, the right at its option, with the consent of Agent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, to cause such Bank (the “Terminated Bank”) (and such Terminated Bank hereby irrevocably agrees) to assign the full amount of all of its outstanding Commitments and Loans, in each case, if any, to one or more Qualified Assignees (each a “Replacement Bank”) in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.11 and Terminated Bank shall pay any fees payable thereunder in connection with such assignment; provided that (1) on the date of such assignment, the Replacement Bank shall pay to Terminated Bank an amount equal to the sum of (A) an amount equal to the principal of, and all accrued interest on, all outstanding Loans of the Terminated Bank, (B) without duplication of clause (A), an amount equal to all unreimbursed drawings that have been funded by such Terminated Bank, together with all then unpaid interest with respect thereto at such time, (C) an amount equal to all accrued, but theretofore unpaid fees owing to such Terminated Bank pursuant to the terms of any Loan Document, and (D) an amount equal to all other Obligations then owing to such Terminated Bank (including any amounts under Section 4.6); (2) if such Terminated Bank gave notice under Section 3.4 or Section 4.6.1, the basis for such notice shall not also cause a Replacement Bank to immediately give such notice; and (3) if such Terminated Bank is a Non-Consenting Bank, each Replacement Bank shall consent, at the time of such assignment, to each matter in respect of which such Terminated Bank was a Non-Consenting Bank.  Upon the prepayment of all amounts owing to any Terminated Bank and the termination of such Terminated Bank’s Commitments, if any, such Terminated Bank shall no longer constitute a “Bank” for purposes hereof; provided that any rights of such Terminated Bank to indemnification hereunder shall survive as to such Terminated Bank.  If a Terminated Bank refuses or fails to comply with its obligations under this Section 4.4.2, Borrowers shall be entitled (but not obligated) to execute and deliver such agreement and documentation on behalf of such Terminated Bank that is consistent with the terms hereof and any such agreement and/or documentation so executed by Borrowers shall be effective for purposes of documenting an assignment pursuant to Section 10.11.

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 or 4.6.1 with respect to such Bank, it will if requested by Borrowers, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Bank) to designate another lending office for any Loans 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 4.4.3 shall affect or postpone any of the Obligations of any Borrower or any other Loan Party or the rights of Agent or any Bank provided in this Agreement.

4.5 Mandatory Prepayments.

4.5.1 Events Triggering Mandatory Prepayments.  Within five (5) Business Days of (i) any sale of assets authorized by Section 7.2.7(vi), which is (a) in excess of $1,000,000 in any one transaction or $2,000,000 in any fiscal year, or (b) made when there exists an Event of Default or Potential Default, (ii) a Loan Party receiving any payment made on account of an indemnification claim arising in connection with the Acquisition Documents or any acquisition documents related to any Permitted Acquisition, or (iii) the receipt of a Specified

46

Equity Contribution by a Loan Party, the Loan Parties shall make a mandatory prepayment of principal on the Loans in an amount equal to (x) in the case of clause (i), the net after-tax proceeds of such sale (as estimated in good faith by such Borrower and reducing from gross after-tax proceeds only reasonable transaction expenses actually incurred, with such estimate being reduced to writing and delivered to Agent with such prepayment) and (y) in all other cases, 100% of the amount of the payment received.  No such prepayment shall permanently reduce the Commitment.

4.5.2 Change in Control Event  Simultaneously with the occurrence of a Change in Control, the Obligations shall be indefeasibly paid in full in cash and all Commitments shall be terminated.

4.5.3 Application among Base Rate Loans and LIBO-Rate Loans.  All principal prepayments required pursuant to this Section 4.5 shall be applied pro rata to the principal amount of the LIBO-Rate Loans and the Base Rate Loans.  In accordance with Section 4.6.2, Borrowers shall indemnify the Banks for any loss or expense, including loss of margin, incurred with respect to any such prepayments applied against LIBO-Rate Loans 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 (a “Change in Law”) 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 Agent or any Bank to any tax, levy, impost, charge, fee, duty, deduction or withholding of any kind whatsoever or changes the basis of taxation with respect to this Agreement, the Notes, the Loans or payments by any Borrower of principal, interest, Unused Line Fees, or other amounts due from any Borrower hereunder or under the Notes (except for taxes on the overall net income of Agent or 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

(iii) imposes, modifies or deems applicable any capital adequacy, liquidity 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 under this Agreement,

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to, reduce the income, principal or interest receivable by, or impose any expense (including loss of margin) upon Agent or any Bank 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

47

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, Agent or such Bank shall from time to time notify Borrowers and Agent of the amount determined in good faith (using any averaging and attribution methods employed in good faith) by Agent or such Bank to be necessary to compensate Agent or such Bank for such increase in cost, reduction of income, principal or interest, 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 such Borrower to Agent or such Bank, as the case may be, ten (10) Business Days after such notice is given.  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (x) the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (y) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a “Change in Law”, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued.

4.6.2 Indemnity.  In addition to the compensation required by Section 4.6.1, Borrowers 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 and any loss or expense incurred in connection with funds acquired by a Bank to fund or maintain LIBO-Rate Loans) which such Bank sustains or incurs as a consequence of any:

(i) payment, prepayment, conversion or renewal of any LIBO-Rate Loan 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) other than a prepayment required by Section 3.4,

(ii) attempt by any Borrower to revoke (expressly, by later inconsistent notices or otherwise) in whole or part any Loan Requests under Section 2.4 or Section 3.2 or notice relating to prepayments under Section 4.4, or

(iii) default by any Borrower in the performance or observance of any covenant or condition contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, including any failure of such Borrower to pay when due (by acceleration or otherwise) any principal, interest, Unused Line 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 each 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 such Borrower to such Bank ten (10) Business Days after such notice is given.

4.7 INDEMNIFICATION BY LOAN PARTIES.  IN CONSIDERATION OF THE EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT BY THE AGENT AND THE

Borrower and its respective Subsidiaries as at the date of the most recent consolidated balance sheet delivered pursuant to the preceding paragraph, adjusted to give effect to the financings contemplated hereby as if such transactions had occurred on such date, which is consistent in all material respects with the forecasts previously provided to Agent.  The Financial Projections represent a reasonable range of possible results in light of the history of the business, present and foreseeable conditions and the intentions of Loan Parties’ management.  The Financial Projections are based upon estimates and assumptions believed by each Borrower to be reasonable, have been prepared on the basis of the assumptions stated therein and reflect the estimates of Parent and its Subsidiaries of the results of operations and other information projected therein, it being recognized by Agent and the Banks however, that projections as to future events are not to be viewed as facts and that the actual results during the period or periods covered by the projections probably will differ from the projected results.  The Financial Projections accurately reflect the liabilities of Interface and its Subsidiaries upon consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby as of the Closing Date.

(iii) Accuracy of Financial Statements.  As of the Closing Date, no Borrower nor any Subsidiary of them has any liabilities, contingent or otherwise, or forward or long-term commitments that are not disclosed in the Annual Statements or in the notes thereto, and except as disclosed therein there are no unrealized or anticipated losses from any commitments of any Borrower or any Subsidiary of them which may reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change.  Since December 31, 2011, no Material Adverse Change has occurred.

9.2 Duties; Delegation of Duties.

9.2.1 Reserved.

9.2.2 Delegation.  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 Agent) and, subject to Sections 9.5, 9.6, and 9.7, 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.

9.2.3 Collateral Matters.  Without limiting the foregoing, the Banks irrevocably authorize Agent, at its option and in its discretion, (a) to release any Lien granted to or held by Agent under any Loan Document (i) upon termination of the Commitments and payment in full of all Loans and all other Obligations (other than contingent indemnification

89

obligations to the extent no claims giving rise thereto have been asserted) of the Loan Parties hereunder and the expiration, termination or cash-collateralization of all Letters of Credit; (ii) constituting property sold or to be sold or disposed of as part of or in connection with any disposition permitted hereunder; or (iii) subject to Section 10.1.3, if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Banks; or (b) with the prior written consent of Required Banks, to subordinate its interest in any collateral to any holder of a Lien on such collateral which is permitted by Section 7.2.2, it being understood that Agent may conclusively rely on a certificate from the Loan Parties in determining whether the Indebtedness secured by any such Lien is permitted by Section 7.2.1.  Upon request by Agent at any time, the Banks will confirm in writing Agent’s authority to release, or subordinate its interest in, particular types or items of collateral pursuant to this Section 9.2.3.  Each Bank hereby authorizes Agent to give blockage notices in connection with any subordinated Indebtedness, and each Bank agrees that it will not act unilaterally in its individual capacity to deliver such notices.  Anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, Loan Parties, Agent and each Bank hereby agree that (i) except for the exercise of a Bank’s right of setoff (subject to the equalization provisions of Section 9.13) and except as may be hereafter agreed to by Agent expressly in writing, no Bank shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce the Security Agreement, the Collateral Assignment of Contracts, the Intercompany Subordination Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement, the Management Fee Subordination Agreement, the Collateral Assignment of Communication Paths, the Collateral Assignment of Life Insurance, the Collateral Assignment of Acquisition Documents, the Intellectual Property Security Agreement, the Pledge Agreement, the Pledge Agreement, or the Guaranty Agreement, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder or thereunder may be exercised solely by Agent, on behalf of Banks in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof and all powers, rights and remedies under the Loan Documents may be exercised solely by Agent, and (ii) in the event of a foreclosure by Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale, Agent or any Bank may be the purchaser of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale and Agent, as agent for and representative of Banks (but not any Bank or Banks in its or their respective individual capacities unless Required Banks shall otherwise agree in writing) shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such public sale, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any collateral payable by Agent at such sale.

9.2.4 Agent May File Proofs of Claim.  Without limiting the foregoing, in case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether Agent shall have made any demand on the Company) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Banks and Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Banks and Agent and their respective agents and counsel and

90

all other amounts due the Banks and Agent under this Agreement) allowed in such judicial proceedings; and

(ii) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same.

Any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Bank to make such payments to Agent and, in the event that Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Banks, to pay to Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due Agent under this Agreement.  Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Bank any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Bank or to authorize Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Bank in any such proceeding.

9.3 Nature of Duties; Independent Credit Investigation.  Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations, or liabilities shall be read into any Loan Document or otherwise exist except, to the extent not waived hereby or waivable, as otherwise provided for under applicable law.  The duties of Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in nature; Agent shall not have by reason of this Agreement a fiduciary or trust relationship in respect of any Bank; and nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon Agent any obligations in respect of any of the Loan Documents except as expressly set forth herein.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the term “agent” in any of the Loan Documents with reference to Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law.  Instead, such term is used 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 Agent has not made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Loan Parties, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by Agent to any Bank; (ii) that such Bank has made and will continue to make, without reliance upon Agent, its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs and its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of the Loan Parties in connection with the Loan Documents and the making and continuance of the Loans or the issuance of the Letters of Credit hereunder; and (iii) except as expressly provided herein, that 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.

9.4 Actions in Discretion of Agent; Instructions from the Banks.  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 Agent’s rights, powers or discretion herein, provided that Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or applicable Law or as provided in Section 9.8.  In the absence of a request by the Required Banks, Agent shall have authority, in its

91

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.  Subject to the provisions of Section 9.6, no Bank shall have any right of action whatsoever against Agent as a result of 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 Agent.

9.5 Reimbursement and Indemnification of Agent by Borrowers.  Each Borrower unconditionally agrees to pay or reimburse Agent and hold Agent harmless against (i) liability for the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs, expenses and disbursements, including fees and expenses of counsel (including the allocated costs of staff counsel), appraisers and environmental consultants, incurred by Agent (a) in connection with the development, negotiation, preparation, printing, execution, administration, syndication, interpretation and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including any amounts owed to or claims made by Imperial, any party claiming through Imperial, or any other broker), (b) relating to any requested 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 and (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 (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 Agent, in its capacity as such, in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by Agent hereunder or thereunder, provided that each Borrower shall not be liable to Agent for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements if the same results from such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.  In addition, each Borrower agrees to reimburse and pay all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of Agent’s regular employees and agents engaged periodically to perform audits of the Loan Parties’ books, records and business properties as provided under this Agreement.

9.6 Exculpatory Provisions; Limitation of Liability.  Neither Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys or Affiliates shall (i) be liable to any Bank for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder, or in connection herewith including pursuant to any Loan Document, unless caused by its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct, (ii) be responsible in any manner to any of the Banks for the effectiveness, enforceability, genuineness, validity or the due execution of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents or for any recital, representation, warranty, document, certificate, report or statement herein or made or furnished under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, or (iii) be under any obligation to any of the Banks to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions hereof or thereof on the part of the Loan Parties, or the financial condition of the Loan Parties, or the existence or

92

possible existence of any Event of Default or Potential Default.  No claim may be made by any Loan Party, any Bank, Agent or any of their respective Subsidiaries against Agent, any Bank or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys or Affiliates, or any of them, for any special, indirect or consequential damages or, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, for any punitive damages in respect of any claim or cause of action (whether based on contract, tort, statutory liability, or any other ground) based on, arising out of or related to any Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith, including the negotiation, documentation, administration or collection of the Loans, and the Loan Parties, Agent and each Bank hereby waive, release and agree never to xxx upon any claim for any such damages, whether such claim now exists or hereafter arises and whether or not it is now known or suspected to exist in its favor.  Each Bank agrees that, except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Banks by Agent hereunder or given to Agent for the account of or with copies for the Banks, Agent and each of its directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys or Affiliates shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Bank with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of the Loan Parties which may come into the possession of Agent or any of its directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys or Affiliates.

9.7 Reimbursement and Indemnification of Agent by Banks.  Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, each Bank agrees to reimburse and indemnify Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by Borrowers and without limiting the Obligation of each Borrower to do so) in proportion to its Ratable Share from and against all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements, including attorneys’ fees and disbursements (including the allocated costs of staff counsel), and costs of appraisers and environmental consultants, of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against Agent, in its capacity as such, in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by Agent hereunder or thereunder, provided that no Bank shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements if the same results from Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.  In addition, each Bank agrees promptly upon demand to reimburse Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by Borrowers and without limiting the Obligation of each Borrower to do so) in proportion to its Ratable Share for all amounts due and payable by Borrowers to Agent in connection with Agent’s periodic audit of the Loan Parties’ books, records and business properties.  Neither the taking of any action nor the refraining from taking any action in accordance with the directions of the Required Banks shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section.  Without limitation of the foregoing, each Bank shall reimburse Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including attorney costs and taxes) incurred by Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of Borrowers.  The undertaking in this Section 9.7 shall survive repayment of the Loans, cancellation of the Notes, expiration or termination of the Letters of

93

Credit, any foreclosure under, or modification, release or discharge of, any or all of the Loan Documents, termination of this Agreement and the resignation or replacement of Agent.

9.8 Reliance by Agent.  Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any writing, telegram or teletype message, e-mail message, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, letter, cablegram, statement, order or other document or conversation by telephone or otherwise believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon the advice and opinions of counsel and other professional advisers selected by Agent.  Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action hereunder unless it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Banks against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.

9.13 Equalization of Banks.  The Banks and the holders of any participations in any Loans agree among themselves that, with respect to all amounts received by any Bank or any such holder for application on any Obligation hereunder or under any Note or under any such participation, whether received by voluntary payment, by realization upon security, by the exercise of the right of set-off or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or by any other non-pro rata source, equitable adjustment will be made in the manner stated in the following sentence so that, in effect, all such excess amounts will be shared ratably among the Banks and such holders in proportion to their interests in payments hereunder, except as otherwise provided in, or by operation of, Section 3.4.3, 4.4.2, 4.6, 8.2.5 or 10.17 or except as provided in any Fee Letter.  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 of such Bank’s Loans, 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 Agent.  Agent may not be removed, but may resign as Agent by giving not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Banks and each Borrower.  If Agent shall resign under this Agreement, then either (i) the Required Banks shall appoint from among the Banks a successor agent for the Banks, subject to the consent of each Borrower (provided that such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or if a Potential Default or an Event of Default then exists, such consent shall not be required), or (ii) if a successor agent shall not be so appointed and approved within the thirty (30) day period following Agent’s notice to the Banks of its resignation, then Agent shall appoint, with the consent of each Borrower (provided that such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or if a Potential Default or an Event of Default then exists, such consent shall not be required), a successor agent who shall serve as Agent until such time as the Required Banks, appoint, and each Borrower consents to the appointment of (provided that such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or if a Potential Default or an Event of Default then exists, such consent shall not be required), a successor agent.  Upon its appointment pursuant to either clause (i) or (ii) above, such successor agent shall automatically succeed to the rights, powers and duties of Agent, and the term “Agent” shall mean such successor agent, effective upon its appointment, and the former Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Agent shall be terminated without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement.  After the resignation of any Agent hereunder, the provisions of this Section 9 shall inure to the benefit of such former Agent and such former 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 Agent under this Agreement.

9.15 Availability of Funds.  Agent may assume that each Bank has made or will make the proceeds of a Loan available to Agent unless Agent shall have been notified by such Bank on or before the later of (1) the close of Business on the Business Day preceding the Borrowing Date with respect to such Loan or (2) two (2) hours before the time on which Agent actually funds the proceeds of such Loan to a Borrower (whether using Agent’s own funds pursuant to this Section 9.15 or using proceeds deposited with Agent by the Banks and whether such funding occurs before or after the time on which Banks are required to deposit the proceeds of such Loan

95

with Agent).  Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption (but shall not be required to), make available to such Borrower a corresponding amount.  If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to Agent by such Bank, 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 such Borrower (which Borrower agrees to pay immediately to Agent)) together with interest thereon, in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date such amount was made available to such Borrower and ending on the date Agent recovers such amount, at a rate per annum equal to the applicable interest rate in respect of such Loan.

9.16 Calculations.  In the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, 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, Agent, each 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.

9.17 Approval of Loan Documents.  Each Bank, by delivering its signature page to this Agreement or an Assignment Agreement, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Loan Document and each other document required to be approved by any Agent, Required Banks or Banks, as applicable on the Closing Date.  Without limiting the foregoing, each Bank hereby consents to and approves each and all of the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement and irrevocably authorizes and directs Agent to execute and deliver the Intercreditor Agreement and to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies and perform its obligations thereunder.

9.18 Beneficiaries.  Except as expressly provided herein or as required by applicable law, the provisions of this Section 9 are solely for the benefit of Agent and the Banks, and the Loan Parties shall not have any rights to rely on or enforce any of the provisions hereof.  In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement, 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.

10. MISCELLANEOUS

10.1 Modifications, Amendments or Waivers.  Any amendment to, waiver of or consent to the departure from the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document must be in writing.  With the written consent of the Required Banks, Agent, acting on behalf of all the Banks, and the Loan Parties, 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 or the Loan Parties hereunder or thereunder, or may grant written waivers or consents to a departure from the due performance of the Obligations of the Loan Parties hereunder or thereunder.  Any such agreement, waiver or consent made with such written consent shall be effective to bind all the Banks and the Loan Parties; provided, that, without the written consent of all the Banks, no such agreement, waiver or consent may be made which will:

96

10.1.1 Increase of Commitment; Extension of Expiration Date; Change of Maximum Availability Definition.  Increase the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment of any Bank hereunder (or reinstate any Commitment terminated pursuant to Section 8.2.1), extend the Expiration Date or change the definition of “Maximum Availability” so as to increase any Eligible RMR multiple;

10.1.2 Extension of Payment; Reduction of Principal, Interest or Fees; Modification of Terms of Payment.  Whether or not any Loans are outstanding, extend the time for payment of principal or interest of any Loan, the Unused Line Fee or any other fee payable to any Bank, or reduce the principal amount of or the rate of interest borne by any Loan (except for periodic adjustments of interest rates and fees resulting from a change in the Applicable Margin as provided for in this Agreement) or reduce the Unused Line Fee or any other fee payable to any Bank, or otherwise affect the terms of payment of the principal of or interest of any Loan, the Unused Line Fee or any other fee payable to any Bank (it being understood that a waiver of the application of the default rate of interest pursuant to Section 3.3 shall require only the approval of the Required Banks and a waiver of any advance notice for the prepayment of the Obligations shall require only the approval of Agent);

10.1.3 Release of Collateral and Guarantors.  Except for sales of assets permitted by Section 7.2.7, as a result of any merger or consolidation permitted by Section 7.2.6, or as Agent is authorized to do under Section 9.2.3, release any Collateral consisting of capital stock or other ownership interests of each Borrower or any Subsidiary or substantially all of the assets of any Loan Party, or any other security for any of the Loan Parties’ Obligations or release all or substantially all of the Guarantors; or

10.1.4 Miscellaneous.  Amend Section 4.2, 7.2.7, 7.2.18, 9.2.3, 9.6, 9.13 or 10.11, this Section 10.1, 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 Agent or L/C Issuer in its capacity as such shall be effective without the written consent of Agent or L/C Issuer, as applicable.

10.2 No Implied Waivers; Cumulative Remedies; Writing Required.  No course of dealing and no delay or failure of 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 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.

97

10.3 Reimbursement and Indemnification of Banks by Borrowers; Taxes.  Each Borrower agrees unconditionally upon demand to pay or reimburse to each Bank (other than Agent, as to which Borrower’s Obligations are set forth in Section 9.5) and to save such Bank harmless against 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 this Agreement or any other Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by such Bank hereunder or thereunder, provided that each Borrower shall not be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements if the same results from such Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.  The Banks will attempt to minimize the fees and expenses of legal counsel for the Banks which are subject to reimbursement by Borrowers hereunder by considering the usage of one law firm to represent the Banks and Agent if appropriate under the circumstances.  Each Borrower agrees unconditionally to pay all stamp, document, transfer, recording or filing taxes or fees and similar impositions now or hereafter determined by Agent or any Bank to be payable in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and each Borrower agrees unconditionally to save 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 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 (except as provided in Section 3.2 with respect to Interest Periods for LIBO-Rate Loans), and such extension of time shall 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 any Borrower, to deem any branch, Subsidiary or Affiliate (which for the purposes of this Section 10.5 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 LIBO-Rate Loans, provided that immediately following (on the assumption that a payment were then due from a Borrower to such other office), and as a result of such change, such Borrower would not be under any greater financial obligation pursuant to Section 4.6 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.

98

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.  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 any Borrower hereunder or require any Borrower to pay any other compensation to any Bank (including any expenses incurred or payable pursuant to Section 4.6) which would otherwise not be incurred.

10.6 Notices.  All notices, requests, demands, directions and other communications (as used in this Section 10.6, collectively referred to as “Notices”) given to or made upon any party hereto under the provisions of this Agreement shall be by telephone or in writing (including facsimile communication) unless otherwise expressly permitted hereunder and shall be delivered or sent by facsimile or via nationally-recognized overnight courier, by hand or U.S. mail to the respective parties at the addresses and numbers set forth under their respective names on Schedule 1.1(B) hereof or in accordance with any subsequent unrevoked written direction from any party to the others.  All notices shall, except as otherwise expressly herein provided, be effective (a) in the case of facsimile, when received, (b) in the case of hand-delivered notice, when hand-delivered, (c) in the case of telephone, when telephoned, provided, however, that in order to be effective, telephonic notices must be confirmed in writing no later than the next Business Day by letter or facsimile, (d) if given by mail, four (4) days after such communication is deposited in the mail with first-class postage prepaid, return receipt requested, and (e) if given by any other means (including by air courier), when delivered; provided that notices to Agent shall not be effective until received.  Any Bank giving any notice to any Loan Party shall simultaneously send a copy thereof to Agent, and Agent shall promptly notify the other Banks of the receipt by it of any such notice.

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.  To the extent not inconsistent therewith, the internal laws of the State of New York, 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.

99

10.10 Duration; Survival.  All representations and warranties of the Loan Parties contained herein or made in connection herewith shall survive the making of Loans and shall not be waived by the execution and delivery of this Agreement, any investigation by Agent or the Banks, the making of Loans, or payment in full of the Loans.  All covenants and agreements of the Loan Parties contained in Sections 7.1, 7.2 and 7.3 herein shall continue in full force and effect from and after the date hereof so long as any Borrower may borrow hereunder and until termination of the Commitments and payment in full of the Loans.  All covenants and agreements of each Borrower contained herein relating to the payment of principal, interest, premiums, additional compensation or expenses and indemnification, including those set forth in the Notes, Section 4 and Sections 9.5, 9.7 and 10.3, shall survive payment in full of the Loans and termination of the Commitments.

10.11 Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Banks, Agent, the Loan Parties and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Loan Parties may not assign or transfer any of their respective rights and Obligations hereunder or any interest herein.  Each Bank may, at its own cost, make assignments (including pledges and grants of security interests) 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 each Borrower and Agent with respect to any assignee which is not a Bank or an Affiliate thereof, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, provided that no consent of any Borrower shall be required (A) if an Event of Default exists and is continuing, (B) in the case of an assignment by a Bank to an Affiliate of such Bank or a lender or other entity which provides a source of funding to such Bank, or (C) in the case of an assignment by a Bank to a Qualified Assignee.  In the case of an assignment, upon receipt by Agent of the Assignment and Assumption Agreement, the assignee shall have, to the extent of such assignment (unless otherwise provided therein), the same rights, benefits and obligations as it would have if it had been a signatory Bank hereunder, the Commitments shall be adjusted accordingly, and upon surrender of any Note subject to such assignment, each Borrower shall (if so requested by the assignee) execute and deliver a new Note to the assignee in an amount equal to the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment assumed by it and a new Revolving Credit Note to the assigning Bank in an amount equal to the Revolving Credit Commitment retained by it hereunder.  Any Bank which assigns any or all of its Commitment or Loans to a Person other than an Affiliate of such Bank or Qualified Assignee shall pay to Agent a service fee in the amount of $3,500 for each assignment.  In the case of a participation, the participant shall only have the rights specified in Section 8.2.3 (the participant’s rights against such Bank in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreement 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, 10.1.2, or 10.1.3), 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 hereunder or thereunder shall be determined as if such Bank had not sold such participation.

(i) Any assignee or participant which is not incorporated under the Laws of the United States of America or a state thereof shall deliver to each Borrower and Agent the form of certificate described in Section 10.17 relating to federal income tax withholding.  Each Bank may furnish any publicly available information concerning any Loan Party and any other information concerning any Loan Party in the possession of such Bank from time to time to

100

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.

(iii) Notwithstanding any other provision of any Loan Document, in no event shall any Person (other than a Bank a party hereto on the Closing Date or an Affiliate of such Bank) who, directly or indirectly, has ownership or control over a Loan Party or, in either case, any Affiliate thereof, be a permitted assignee or participant in respect of any of the Obligations or under any of the Loan Documents, and any purported assignment or participation made or granted to any such Person in respect of the Obligations or any of the Loan Documents shall be null and void.

10.12 Confidentiality.

10.12.1 General.  (a) Each Loan Party agrees, and agrees to cause each of its Affiliates, (i) not to transmit or disclose provisions of any Loan Document to any Person (other than to such Loan Party’s advisors and officers on a need-to-know basis or as otherwise may be required by law) without the prior written consent or Agent, and (ii) to inform all Persons of the confidential nature of the Loan Documents and to direct them not to disclose the same to any other Person and to require each of them to be bound by these provisions.  Each Loan Party agrees to submit to Agent and Agent reserves the right to review and approve all materials that such Loan Party or any of its Affiliates prepares that contain the name of Agent or any Bank or describe or refer to any Loan Document, any of the terms thereof or any of the transactions contemplated thereby.  No Loan Party shall, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates to, use the name or Agent or any Bank (or the name of any Affiliate or Agent or any Bank) in connection with any of its business operations, including without limitation, advertising, marketing or press releases or such other similar purposes, without the prior written consent or Agent or the applicable Bank.  Nothing contained in any Loan Document is intended to permit or authorize any Loan Party or any of its Affiliates to contract on behalf of Agent or any Bank.

(b) Each Loan Party hereby agrees that Agent or any Bank or any Affiliate of Agent or any Bank may (i) disclose a general description of transactions arising under the Loan Documents for advertising, marketing or other similar purposes and (ii) use the name, logo or other indicia germane to any Loan Party in connection with such advertising, marketing or other similar purposes.

10.12.2 Nonliability of Banks.  The relationship between Borrowers on the one hand and the Banks and Agent on the other hand shall be solely that of borrower and lender.  Neither Agent nor any Bank has any fiduciary relationship with or duty to any Loan Party arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and the relationship between the Loan Parties, on the one hand, and Agent and the Banks, on the other

101

hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of debtor and creditor.  Neither Agent nor any Bank undertakes any responsibility to any Loan Party to review or inform any Loan Party of any matter in connection with any phase of any Loan Party’s business or operations.  Each Borrower agrees, on behalf of itself and each other Loan Party, that neither Agent nor any Bank shall have liability to any Loan Party (whether sounding in tort, contract or otherwise) for losses suffered by any Loan Party in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to the transactions contemplated and the relationship established by the Loan Documents, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith, unless it is determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction that such losses resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party from which recovery is sought.  NO BANK PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES ARISING FROM THE USE BY OTHERS OF ANY INFORMATION OR OTHER MATERIALS OBTAINED THROUGH INTRALINKS OR OTHER SIMILAR INFORMATION TRANSMISSION SYSTEMS IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, OTHER THAN RESULTING FROM SUCH BANK’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT, NOR SHALL ANY BANK PARTY HAVE ANY LIABILITY WITH RESPECT TO, AND EACH BORROWER ON BEHALF OF ITSELF AND EACH OTHER LOAN PARTY, HEREBY WAIVES, RELEASES AND AGREES NOT TO XXX FOR ANY SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR ARISING OUT OF ITS ACTIVITIES IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THEREWITH (WHETHER BEFORE OR AFTER THE CLOSING DATE).  Each Borrower acknowledges that it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party.  No joint venture is created hereby or by the other Loan Documents or otherwise exists by virtue of the transactions contemplated hereby among the Banks or among the Loan Parties and the Banks.

10.13 Counterparts.  This Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be executed by different parties hereto on any number of separate counterparts, each of which, when so executed and delivered, shall be an original, and all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

10.14 Agent’s or Bank’s Consent.  Whenever Agent’s or any Bank’s consent is required to be obtained under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents as a condition to any action, inaction, condition or event, Agent and each Bank shall be authorized to give or withhold such consent in its sole and absolute discretion and to condition its consent upon the giving of additional collateral, the payment of money or any other matter.

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.

10.16 CONSENT TO FORUM; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.  EACH LOAN PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY FEDERAL OR STATE COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION LOCATED IN OR HAVING JURISDICTION OVER NEW YORK, NEW YORK AND

102

10.17 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 Agent, each other Bank or assignee or participant of a Bank) agrees that it will deliver to each Borrower and Agent two (2) duly completed appropriate valid Withholding Certificates (as defined under §1.1441-1(c)(16) of the Income Tax Regulations (“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.  Such delivery may be made by electronic transmission as described in §1.1441-1(e)(4)(iv) of the Regulations if Agent establishes an electronic delivery system.  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)(3) of the Regulations; a statement described in §1.871-14(c)(2)(v) of the Regulations; or any other certificates under the 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 each Borrower and Agent a valid 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 any 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 Agent in its sole discretion shall permit such assignee or participant to deliver such Withholding Certificate less than five (5) Business Days before such date in which case it shall be due on the date specified by Agent).  Each Bank, assignee or participant which so delivers a valid Withholding Certificate further undertakes to deliver to each Borrower and 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 any Borrower or Agent.  Notwithstanding the submission of a Withholding Certificate claiming a reduced rate of, or exemption from, United States withholding tax, Agent shall be entitled to withhold United States federal income taxes at the full 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 Regulations.  Further, Agent is indemnified under §1.1461-1(e) of the Regulations against any claims and

103

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 agrees to indemnify Agent and hold Agent harmless for the full amount of any and all present or future Taxes and related liabilities (including penalties, interest, additions to tax and expenses, and any Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable to Agent under this Section 10.17 which are imposed on or with respect to principal, interest or fees payable to such Bank hereunder and which are not paid by a Borrower whether or not such Taxes or related liabilities were correctly or legally asserted.  This indemnification shall be made within thirty (30) days from the date Agent makes written demand therefor.

10.18 Joinder of Guarantors or Additional Borrowers.  Any Subsidiary of any Borrower which is required to join this Agreement as a Guarantor pursuant to Section 7.2.9 shall execute and deliver to Agent (i) at Agent’s election, either a Joinder in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit 1.1(G) pursuant to which it shall join as a Guarantor each of the documents to which such Borrower is a party or a joinder to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents pursuant to which it becomes a Borrower hereunder and thereunder; (ii) documents in the forms described in Section 6.1 modified as appropriate to relate to such Subsidiary; and (iii) documents necessary to grant and perfect Prior Security Interests to Agent for the benefit of itself and the Banks in all Collateral held by such Subsidiary.  The Borrowers shall deliver such Joinder and related documents to Agent within five (5) Business Days after the date of the filing of such Subsidiary’s articles of incorporation if the Subsidiary is a newly-formed corporation, the date of the filing of its certificate of limited partnership if it is a newly-formed limited partnership or the date of its organization if it is a newly-formed entity other than a limited partnership or corporation or the date of its acquisition by such Borrower.  As of the Closing Date, no Subsidiary of Interface (other than WAC), WAC (other than WIS), GAC or WIS conducts any business, has any material assets or has or incurs any liabilities or employs any Persons.

10.20 No Reliance on 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 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 recordkeeping, (3) comparisons with government lists, (4) customer notices or (5) other procedures required under the CIP Regulations or such other Anti-Terrorism Laws or other obligations required or imposed under or pursuant to the USA Patriot Act or the regulations thereunder, including 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 recordkeeping, (3) comparisons with government lists, (4) customer notices or (5) other procedures required under the CIP Regulations or such other Anti-Terrorism Laws.

10.21 Independence of Covenants.  All covenants hereunder and under the Loan Documents shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or would otherwise be within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a Potential Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists.

10.22 Joint and Several Liability of Borrowers.

10.22.1 Joint and Several Liability.  Each Borrower acknowledges that it is jointly and severally liable for all of the Obligations under the Loan Documents, and any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other agreement which affects the Obligations shall be deemed to affect the Obligations of all Borrowers on a joint and several basis unless expressly specified otherwise.  Each Borrower expressly understands, agrees and acknowledges that (i) the Borrowers are all Affiliates, (ii) each Borrower desires to have the availability of one common credit facility pursuant to this Agreement instead of separate credit facilities, (iii) each Borrower has requested that Agent and the Banks extend such a common credit facility on the terms of this Agreement, as amended hereby, (iv) Banks will be lending against, and relying on a Lien upon, all of the assets of Borrowers even though the proceeds of any particular Loan may not be advanced directly to a particular Borrower, (v) each Borrower will nonetheless benefit by the making of all such Loans by each Bank and the availability of a single credit facility of a size greater than each could independently warrant, (vi) all of the representations, warranties, covenants, obligations, conditions, agreements and other terms contained in the Loan Documents to which any Borrower is a party shall be applicable to and shall be binding upon each Borrower, unless otherwise expressly provided herein, and (vii) Borrowers have each executed this Agreement and the Notes, if any, as co-obligors of this Agreement and the Notes, if any, and that it would not be able to obtain the credit provided by Banks under this Agreement without the financial support provided by the other Borrowers.

10.22.2 Guaranty by each Borrowers.  Each Borrower hereby guarantees the prompt payment and performance in full of all Obligations, which Obligations shall be immediately due and payable on the Expiration Date.  Such guarantee constitutes a guarantee of payment and not of collection.  Each Borrower’s obligations under this Agreement shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be unconditional irrespective of (i) the validity or enforceability, avoidance or subordination of the Obligations of any other Loan Party or of any promissory note or other document evidencing all or any part of the Obligations of any other Loan Party, (ii) the absence of any attempt to collect the Obligations from any other Loan Party, or any other

105

security therefor, or the absence of any other action to enforce the same, (iii) the waiver, consent, extension, forbearance or granting of any indulgence by Agent and/or any Bank with respect to any provision of any instrument evidencing the Obligations of any other Loan Party or any part thereof, or any other agreement now or hereafter executed by any other Loan Party and delivered to Agent and/or any Bank, (iv) the failure by Agent and/or any Bank to take any steps to perfect and maintain its security interest in, or to preserve its rights to, any security or collateral for the Obligations of any other Loan Party, (v) Agent’s and/or any Bank’s election, in any proceeding instituted under the Bankruptcy Code, of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, (vi) any borrowing or grant of a security interest by any other Loan Party, as debtor-in-possession under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code, (vii) the disallowance of all or any portion of Agent’s and/or any Bank’s claim(s) for the repayment of the Obligations of any other Loan Party under Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code or (viii) any other circumstances which might constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor or of any other Loan Party (other than actual indefeasible payment in full in cash).  With respect to any Borrower’s Obligations arising as a result of the joint and several liability of Borrowers hereunder with respect to Loans or other extensions of credit made to any of the other Borrowers hereunder, such Borrower hereby forever waives any right to enforce any right of subrogation or any remedy which Agent and/or any Bank now has or may hereafter have against any other Loan Party, or any endorser of all or any part of the Obligations, and any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security or collateral given to Agent and/or any Bank to secure payment of the Obligations or any other liability of any Borrower to Agent and/or any Bank.  During the existence and continuance of any Event of Default, Agent may proceed directly and at once, without notice, against any Borrower to collect and recover the full amount, or any portion of the Obligations, without first proceeding against any other Loan Party or any other Person, or against any security or collateral for the Obligations.  Each Borrower consents and agrees that Agent shall be under no obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Loan Party or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations.

10.22.3 Right of Contribution.  Each Borrower is obligated to repay the Obligations as a joint and several obligor under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  To the extent that any Borrower shall, under this Agreement as a joint and several obligor, repay any of the Obligations constituting Loans made to another Borrower hereunder or other Obligations incurred directly and primarily by any other Borrower (an “Accommodation Payment”), then each Borrower making such Accommodation Payment shall be entitled to contribution and indemnification from, and be reimbursed by, each of the other Borrowers in an amount, for each of such other Borrowers, equal to a fraction of such Accommodation Payment, the numerator of which fraction is such other Borrower’s Allocable Amount and the denominator of which is the sum of the Allocable Amounts of every Borrower.  As of any date of determination, the “Allocable Amount” of each Borrower shall be equal to the maximum amount of liability for Accommodation Payments which could be asserted against such Borrower hereunder without (i) rendering such Borrower “insolvent” within the meaning of Section 101 (31) of the Bankruptcy Code, Section 2 of the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act (“UFTA”) or Section 2 of the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act (“UFCA”), (ii) leaving such Borrower with unreasonably small capital or assets, within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code, Section 4 of the UFTA or Section 5 of the UFCA, or (iii) leaving such Borrower unable to pay its debts as they become due within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code, Section 4 of the UFTA or Section 5 of the UFCA.  All rights and claims of contribution,

106

indemnification, and reimbursement under this Section shall be subordinate in right of payment to the prior indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Obligations, the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit, the termination of all Commitments and the termination of this Agreement.  The provisions of this Section 10.21 shall, to the extent inconsistent with any provision in any Loan Document, supersede such inconsistent provision.

10.22.4 Waiver of Surety Rights.  If (i) any court holds that Borrowers are guarantors and not jointly and severally liable as principal obligors or (ii) bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings at any time are instituted by or against any Borrower under any Debtor Relief Law, then each Borrower hereby: (A) expressly and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent possible, except as otherwise provided in Section 10.22.3 hereof, on behalf of such Borrower, any and all rights at law or in equity to subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification, set off or any other rights that could accrue to a surety against a principal, to a guarantor against a maker or obligor, to an accommodation party against the party accommodated, to a holder or transferee against a maker, or to the holder of a claim against any Person, and which such Borrower may have or hereafter acquire against any Person in connection with or as a result of such Borrower’s execution, delivery and/or performance of this Agreement, or any other documents to which such Borrower is a party or otherwise; (B) expressly and irrevocably waives any “claim” (as such term is defined in the Bankruptcy Code) of any kind against any other Borrower, and further agrees that it shall not have or assert any such rights against any Person (including any surety), either directly or as an attempted set off to any action commenced against such Borrower by Agent or a Bank or any other Person; and (C) acknowledges and agrees (I) that this waiver is intended to benefit Agent and the Banks and shall not limit or otherwise affect such Borrower’s liability hereunder or the enforceability of this Agreement, and (II) that Agent and the Banks and their successors and assigns are intended beneficiaries of this waiver, and the agreements set forth in this Section and their rights under this Section shall survive payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

10.22.5 WAIVER OF CERTAIN RIGHTS.  EACH LOAN PARTY WAIVES THE FILING OF A CLAIM WITH A COURT IN THE EVENT OF RECEIVERSHIP OR BANKRUPTCY OF ANY OTHER LOAN PARTY, AND WAIVES EVERY DEFENSE, CAUSE OF ACTION, COUNTERCLAIM OR SETOFF WHICH ANY LOAN PARTY MAY NOW HAVE OR HEREAFTER MAY HAVE TO ANY ACTION BY AGENT OR ANY BANK IN ENFORCING THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, EVERY DEFENSE, COUNTERCLAIM OR SETOFF WHICH SUCH LOAN PARTY MAY NOW HAVE, OR HEREAFTER MAY HAVE, AGAINST ANOTHER LOAN PARTY OR ANY OTHER PARTY LIABLE TO AGENT OR ANY BANK IN ANY MANNER.  AS FURTHER SECURITY, ANY AND ALL DEBTS AND LIABILITIES NOW OR HEREAFTER ARISING AND OWING TO ANY LOAN PARTY BY ANY OTHER LOAN PARTY, OR TO ANY OTHER PARTY LIABLE TO AGENT OR ANY BANK, ARE HEREBY SUBORDINATED TO AGENT’S AND ANY SUCH BANK’S CLAIMS AND UPON THE OCCURRENCE OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT ARE ASSIGNED TO AGENT FOR THE BENEFIT OF BANKS.  EACH LOAN PARTY HEREBY AGREES THAT IT MAY BE JOINED AS A PARTY DEFENDANT IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, A FORECLOSURE PROCEEDING) INSTITUTED BY AGENT OR ANY BANK AGAINST ANY OTHER LOAN PARTY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT.

107

10.22.6          Reinstatement of Obligations.  Should a claim be made upon Agent or any Bank at any time for repayment of any amount received by Agent or any Bank in payment of the Obligations, or any part thereof, whether received from any Loan Party or received by Agent or any Bank as the proceeds of Collateral, by reason of any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative body having jurisdiction over Agent or any Bank or any of their property, each Loan Party shall remain liable to Agent or any such Bank for the amount so repaid to the same extent as if such amount had never originally been received by Agent or any such Bank, notwithstanding any termination hereof or the cancellation of any note or other instrument evidencing any of the Obligations.

10.22.7          Savings Clause.  To the extent that any payment to, or realization by, any Bank or Agent on the Obligations exceeds the limitations of this Section and is otherwise subject to avoidance and recovery in any such proceeding, the amount subject to avoidance shall in all events be limited to the amount by which such actual payment or realization exceeds such limitation, and this Agreement as limited shall in all events remain in full force and effect and be fully enforceable against such Loan Party.  This Section is intended solely to reserve the rights of Banks and Agent hereunder against each Loan Party, in such proceeding to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Debtor Relief Laws and no Loan Party, guarantor of the Obligations or other Person shall have any right, claim or defense under this Section that would not otherwise be available under applicable Debtor Relief Laws in such proceeding.

10.22.8          Customer Identification — USA Patriot Act Notice.  Each Bank (for itself and not on behalf of any other party) hereby notifies the Loan Parties that, pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act, Title III of Pub. L. 107-56, signed into law October 26, 2001, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that indemnifies the Loan Parties, which information includes the name and address of the Loan Parties and other information that will allow such Bank, as applicable, to identify the Loan Parties in accordance with the Act.
