THE CREDITS

Section 2.1 The Term Loans.

(a) (i) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, (A) the Initial Lenders agree to make loans (each, an “Initial Term Loan” and, collectively, the “Initial Term Loans”), to the Borrower on the Initial Closing Date in an amount equal to the Initial Term Loan Commitment, (B) on or prior to the Subsequent Term Loan Commitment Expiration Date, the Initial Lenders agree to make loans (each, a “Subsequent Term Loan” and, collectively, the “Subsequent Term Loans”) to the Borrower on the Subsequent Closing Date in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Subsequent Term Loan Commitment and (C) on or prior to the Stetson II Term Loan Commitment Expiration Date, the Initial Lenders agree to make loans (each, a “Stetson II Term Loan” and, collectively, the “Stetson II Term Loans”) to the Borrower on the Stetson II Funding Date in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Stetson II Term Loan Commitment. Each of the Borrower, CSSW Parent, the Initial Lenders and the Administrative Agent acknowledge that the Initial Term Loans and the Subsequent Term Loans have been made and that the Borrower has borrowed the full amount of the Initial Term Loan Commitment and the Subsequent Term Loan Commitment. If the Stetson II Funding Date has not occurred on or prior to the Stetson II Term Loan Commitment Expiration Date, the Stetson II Term Loan Commitment shall terminate in full on the Stetson II Term Loan Commitment Expiration Date. Any portion of the Stetson II Term Loan Commitment not borrowed on the Stetson II Funding Date shall automatically terminate on the Stetson II Funding Date.

(ii) The Initial Term Loans were funded by each Initial Lender to the Borrower on the Initial Closing Date at a 17.40143093% discount; accordingly, the amount of Initial Term Loans funded by each Initial Lender to the Borrower on the Initial Closing Date

was in an amount equal to 82.59856907% of the stated principal amount of such Initial Term Loans.

(b) The Term Loans are available only on the terms and conditions specified hereunder and once repaid, in whole or in part, at maturity or by prepayment, may not be reborrowed in whole or in part.

(c) The Term Loans, including all PIK Interest, shall mature on the Maturity Date and shall be repaid in full by the Borrower by wire transfer of immediately available funds in Dollars for the account of the Lenders at the Payment Office of the Administrative Agent.

Section 2.2 Procedure for Borrowing. The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent at least three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice at the Notice Office of each Closing Date, which notice (a “Notice of Borrowing”) shall be irrevocable and shall be given by the Borrower substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto, appropriately completed to specify (a) the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans to be made on such date and (b) the applicable Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to the initial borrowing of the Term Loan to occur on the Initial Closing Date, the Borrower shall be required to deliver a Notice of Borrowing on the Initial Closing Date. The Administrative Agent shall promptly forward to the Initial Lenders the Notice of Borrowing. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the applicable Closing Date, the Initial Lenders will make available the aggregate amount of Term Loans requested to be made on the applicable Closing Date in Dollars and in immediately available funds either, as agreed by the Borrower and the Initial Lenders, at the Payment Office of the Administrative Agent or pursuant to a funds flow memorandum confirmed by the Borrower and the Initial Lenders. If applicable, the Administrative Agent shall credit the account of Borrower on the books of such Payment Office with the aggregate of the amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by the Initial Lenders in immediately available funds.

Section 2.3 Evidence of Obligations and Notes.

(a) Each Lender will maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender as a result of the Term Loans of such Lender, including the amounts of principal, interest (including PIK Interest) and other amounts payable and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement. The entries made by each Lender pursuant to the foregoing sentence shall constitute prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the Term Loans and other Obligations therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of such Lender to maintain such account or accounts, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligations of the Borrower to repay or pay the Term Loans, accrued interest thereon (including PIK Interest) and the other Obligations of the Borrower to such Lender hereunder in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Each Lender will advise the Borrower of the outstanding indebtedness hereunder to such Lender upon written request therefor.

(b) At the request of each Lender, the Borrower’s obligation to pay the principal of, and interest on, the Term Loans shall be evidenced by a promissory note duly

executed and delivered by the Borrower substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto with blanks appropriately completed in conformity herewith (each, a “Term Note” and collectively, the “Term Notes”).

(c) The Term Notes issued to each Lender shall (i) be payable to the order of such Lender, (ii) be dated the applicable Closing Date, (iii) be in a stated maximum principal amount equal to the Term Loans of such Lender plus any PIK Interest, (iv) mature on the Maturity Date, (v) bear interest as provided in this Agreement and (vi) be entitled to the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(d) Each Lender will note on its internal records the amount of each Term Loan made by it and each payment in respect thereof and will prior to any transfer of the Term Note endorse on the reverse side thereof the outstanding principal amount of Term Loans (including PIK Interest) evidenced thereby. Failure to make such notation shall not affect the Borrower’s obligations in respect of such Term Loans.

Section 2.4 Mandatory Principal and Interest Payments on Term Loans.

(a) The Borrower may, at its option (an “Interest Election”), elect to pay interest on the Loans on each Interest Payment Date (i) entirely in cash (“Cash Interest”), (ii) by increasing the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans on the relevant Interest Payment Date by the amount of interest accrued from the effective date of any such Interest Election until the day immediately prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date (“PIK Interest”) or (iii) 50% as Cash Interest and 50% as PIK Interest. Unless the context otherwise requires, for all purposes hereof, references to “principal amount” of the Term Loans includes any interest so capitalized, including pursuant to Section 2.5, and added to the principal amount of the Term Loans from the date on which such interest has been so added.

(b) The Borrower must make an Interest Election by delivering an Interest Election notice to the Administrative Agent no later than ten (10) Business Days prior to the effective date of any Interest Election, which notice shall specify (x) whether such Interest Election is made under clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of the immediately preceding paragraph and (y) the effective date of such Interest Election, which effective date must be the next Interest Payment Date. An Interest Election shall remain in effect until the earlier of (i) the day immediately prior to the next Interest Payment Date following the effective date of such Interest Election and (ii) the Maturity Date. The Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver the Interest Election notice with their allocable interest amount to each Lender. In the absence of such an election, interest on the Term Loans shall be payable 100% as PIK Interest.

(c) Subject to Section 2.5, each Term Loan shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 (or 366 days, if applicable) at a rate per annum that shall be equal to the Interest Rate.

(d) Cash Interest accrued on each Term Loan shall be payable on the Interest Payment Dates applicable to such Term Loan, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement. PIK Interest accrued on each Term Loan shall be payable by increasing the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans by the amount of PIK Interest on the Interest

Payment Date applicable to such Term Loan for such period and in such amounts as required by the relevant Interest Election(s). Any interest so added to the principal amount of the Term Loans, including pursuant to Section 2.5, shall bear interest as provided in this Section 2.4 from the date on which such interest has been so added. The obligation of the Borrower to pay PIK Interest shall be automatically evidenced by this Agreement or, if applicable, any Term Notes issued pursuant to this Agreement.

(e) All accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid in cash at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise), after such maturity on demand and upon any repayment or prepayment thereof (on the amount prepaid).

(f) In addition to interest payments required to be made hereunder, and subject to the rights of acceleration hereunder, the full unpaid principal balance of the Term Loans shall be payable in full on the Maturity Date.

(g) The Initial Term Loans shall be issued with OID. Lenders may obtain the issue price, the amount of OID, issue date and yield to maturity with respect to the Initial Term Loans by submitting a written request to the Borrower at its Notice Office. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if on any Interest Payment Date (not taking into account any available extensions) on or after June 30, 2015 or on any earlier date as required by Code Sections 163(e)(5) and 163(i), the aggregate amount of accrued and unpaid original issue discount (as defined in Section 1273(a)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code) on the Term Loans would, but for this Section 2.4(g), exceed an amount equal to the product of the issue price of the Term Loans multiplied by the yield to maturity (as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.1272-1(b)(i)) of the Term Loans as determined by the Borrower, the Borrower shall prepay at each such applicable Interest Payment Date, without premium or penalty, the minimum amount of principal plus accrued interest on the Term Loans necessary to prevent any of the accrued and unpaid interest and original issue discount on the Term Loans from being disallowed or deferred as a deduction under Section 163(e)(5) of the Code to the Borrower (or any member of the Borrower, as applicable). No partial prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to any other provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall alter the obligation of the Borrower to make prepayments provided for in this Section 2.4(g).

Section 2.5 Default Rate. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default and during any Standstill Period and during the Tax Equity Standstill Period (but only with respect to the Subsequent Term Loans), interest shall accrue on the Term Loans and all other outstanding amounts hereunder or under the Loan Documents (after as well as before judgment, as and to the extent permitted by law) at a rate per annum equal to the Default Rate and such interest shall be payable in cash and upon demand; provided that, during the Standstill Period, the Borrower may elect, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, to pay such default interest as PIK Interest on each date that any demand for payment is made.

Section 2.6 Sharing of Payments. Except to the extent that this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any Judgment expressly provides for payments to be allocated to a particular Lender, if any Lender shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set off, or otherwise, but excluding through any assignment pursuant to

Section 13.11 hereof) on account of the Term Loans made by it in excess of its ratable share (according to the then outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans) of payments on account of the Term Loans obtained by all the Lenders, such Lender shall purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Term Loans held by such other Lenders as shall cause such purchasing Lender to share such payment ratably according to the then outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans with each of such other Lenders; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, the purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, with interest at an interest rate per annum equal to the Interest Rate. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation in the Term Loans from another Lender pursuant to this Section 2.6 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

Section 2.7 Removal or Replacement of a Lender. In the event that: (a) any Lender shall make a demand for any payment under Section 2.8 (each, a “Section 2.8 Lender”) or (b) in connection with any proposed amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent with respect to any of the provisions hereof or any other Loan Document that requires the consent of all of the Lenders or each of the Lenders affected thereby, the consent of Majority Lenders shall have been obtained, but the consent of one or more of such other Lenders (each, a “Non Consenting Lender”) whose consent is required shall not have been obtained; then, with respect to each such Section 2.8 Lender or Non Consenting Lender, the Borrower may, by giving written notice of termination to Administrative Agent and any such Section 2.8 Lender or Non Consenting Lender (the “Terminated Lender”) of its election to do so, elect to cause such Terminated Lender (and such Terminated Lender hereby irrevocably agrees) to assign its outstanding Term Loans in full to one or more Successor Lenders in accordance with the provisions of Article 13 and Borrower shall pay the fees, if any, payable thereunder in connection with any such assignment; provided that (1) on the date of such assignment, the Successor Lender shall pay to the Terminated Lender an amount equal to the sum of (A) an amount equal to the principal of, and all accrued interest on, all outstanding Term Loans of the Terminated Lender and (B) an amount equal to all other amounts owing to such Terminated Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, (2) on the date of such assignment, the Borrower shall pay any amounts payable to such Terminated Lender as if it were a prepayment pursuant to Sections 4.1 or 4.2, as applicable, and (3) in the event such Terminated Lender is a Non Consenting Lender, each Successor Lender shall consent, at the time of such assignment, to each matter in respect of which such Terminated Lender was a Non Consenting Lender. Upon the prepayment of all amounts owing to any Terminated Lender, if any, such Terminated Lender shall no longer constitute a “Lender” for purposes hereof; provided, any rights of such Terminated Lender that, pursuant to the terms hereof and the other Loan Documents expressly survive any assignment, shall survive as to such Terminated Lender.

Section 2.8 Capital Adequacy.

(a) If any Lender shall have determined that the adoption of, or any change in, any Capital Adequacy Regulation or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any

Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time, after submission by such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of a written request therefor, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such corporation for such reduction.

(b) A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.8 submitted by any Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.8, the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.8 for any amounts incurred more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided that, if the circumstances giving rise to such claim have a retroactive effect, then such nine-month period shall be extended to include the period of such retroactive effect. The obligations of the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.8 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Term Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

Section 2.9 Pro Rata Borrowings; Availability. The Term Loans shall be incurred ratably among the Initial Lenders based upon the amount of their respective Initial Term Loan Commitments, Subsequent Term Loan Commitments and Stetson II Term Loan Commitments, respectively. It is agreed that no Initial Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Initial Lender of its obligation to make a Term Loan hereunder and that each Initial Lender shall be obligated to make the Term Loans provided to be made by it hereunder regardless of the failure of any other Initial Lender to make a Term Loan hereunder.

Moreover, if any Non-Excluded Taxes are directly asserted against any Lender with respect to any payment received by such affected Lender hereunder, each affected Lender may pay such Taxes and the Borrower will promptly pay such additional amount (including any penalties, interest or expenses) as is necessary in order that the net amount received by each affected Lender after the payment of any Non-Excluded Taxes shall equal the amount each affected Lender would have received had not such Non-Excluded Taxes been asserted.

(b) If the Borrower fails to pay any Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to each affected Lender the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Borrower shall indemnify each affected Lender for any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by each affected Lender as a result of any such failure.

(c) In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies that arise from any payment made or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with

respect to, this Agreement, the Term Notes, or the other Loan Documents (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

(d) The Borrower shall indemnify each Lender and the Administrative Agent for the full amount of Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any Governmental Authority on amounts payable under this Section 4.5) paid by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) and any liability (including interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. Each payment required to be made by the Borrower in respect of this indemnification shall be made to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of any party claiming such indemnification within thirty (30) days from the date the Borrower receives written demand therefor detailing the calculation of such amounts from the Administrative Agent on behalf of itself as Agent or any such Lender. The agreements in this subsection shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Term Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(e) The Borrower will pay prior to delinquency Taxes and Other Taxes required to be paid by the Borrower in respect of any payment under this Agreement. Upon request, the Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent for its own account or for the account of the affected Lender, as the case may be, the original or a certified copy of a receipt or other documentation reasonable satisfactory to such affected Lender evidencing payment of such Taxes or Other Taxes.

(f) Prior to becoming an Administrative Agent or Lender under this Agreement (including in connection with an assignment), on or prior to the date on which any form or certificate expires or becomes obsolete, after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form or certificate previously delivered and within fifteen (15) days after a reasonable written request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent from time to time and to the extent such Administrative Agent or Lender is legally entitled thereto:

(i) each such Person or Lender that is not in each case a “United States person” (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) for U.S. federal income tax purposes (a “Foreign Lender”) shall provide to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased) a properly completed and executed IRS Form W-8BEN, Form W-8ECI or Form W-8IMY or other applicable form, certificate or document prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service (including all required attachments), certifying as to such Foreign Lender’s entitlement to an exemption from, or reduction in, United States withholding tax with respect to interest payments to be made to such Foreign Lender under this Agreement and under the Term Loans. Any Foreign Lender that is claiming an exemption from U.S. withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code shall provide in addition to the applicable IRS Form W-8 (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased), a properly executed certificate representing that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” for purposes of Section 881(c) of the Code, does not hold a ten percent (10%) interest in the capital or profits of the Borrower within the meaning of Section

871(h)(3)(B) of the Code, and is not a controlled foreign corporation related to the Borrower within the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the Code. No Foreign Lender shall be entitled to additional payments under Section 4.5(a) or to indemnification under Section 4.5(d) for any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes to the extent such Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes would not have been imposed had the Foreign Lender complied with this Section 4.5(f)(i). Each Foreign Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered certificate to the Borrower (or any other form of certification adopted by the U.S. Governmental Authorities for such purposes); and

(ii) each such Person or Lender that is a “United States person” (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) for U.S. federal income tax purposes shall provide to Borrower and the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased), a properly completed and executed IRS Form W-9, certifying as to such Lender’s entitlement to an exemption from U.S. backup withholding tax, or any successor form. Each such Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered certificate to the Borrower (or any other form of certification adopted by the U.S. Governmental Authorities for such purposes).

(g) If the Borrower determines in good faith that a reasonable basis exists for contesting a Non-Excluded Tax or Other Tax, the relevant Lender (or assignee), or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, shall cooperate with the Borrower in challenging such Tax at the Borrower’s expense if requested by the Borrower. If any Lender (or assignee) determines in its sole discretion that it has received a refund in respect of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 4.5, it shall within thirty (30) days from the date of such receipt pay over such refund to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 4.5 with respect to the Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of such Lender (or assignee) or the Administrative Agent and without interest (other than interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, however, that the Borrower, upon the request of such Lender (or assignee) or the Administrative Agent, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus penalties interest or other charges) to such Lender (or assignee) or the Administrative Agent in the event such Lender (or assignee) or the Administrative Agent is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Neither the Lender nor the Administrative Agent shall be obliged to disclose any information regarding its tax affairs or computations to the Borrower in connection with this paragraph (g) or any other provision of this Section 4.5.

(h) If the Administrative Agent or any Lender requests, or the Borrower is required to make, any indemnification or payment with respect to Non-Excluded Taxes (excluding Other Taxes) under this Section 4.5, then the relevant Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office or to assign its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents to another of its branches or such other Person as Borrower may reasonably

request if (i) such designation or assignment could reasonably be expected to reduce or eliminate amounts payable pursuant to this Section 4.5, and (ii) in the reasonable judgment of such Lender such designation or assignment would not subject it to any material unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be materially disadvantageous to it. Borrower agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by such Lender in connection with such designation or assignment.

(i) To the extent that the Lenders have complied with Section 4.5(f), the parties agree and acknowledge that as of the date hereof no withholding or deduction for any U.S. Taxes is required by applicable law, rule or regulation (“Initial U.S. Taxes”), and, as of the date hereof, the Borrower will not withhold on any payments made to the Lenders under this Agreement unless required to do so by a Governmental Authority pursuant to a final determination. If, as a result of a final determination, the Borrower is or was required to withhold or deduct any Initial U.S. Taxes on amounts payable to a Lender (or assignee) under this Agreement, then such Lender (or assignee) shall indemnify the Borrower in full for the entire amount that was required to be withheld or deducted (including interest and penalties); provided that nothing in this sentence shall limit or change the Borrower’s obligations under this Section 4.5 with respect to all Taxes and Other Taxes other than with respect to Initial U.S. Taxes.

(j) The agreements and obligations of the Borrower in respect of this Section 4.5 shall survive the payment of the Term Loans, the Term Notes and all other Obligations.

The projections and pro forma financial information contained in the materials referenced above and the Base Case Projections Model being delivered on the applicable Closing Date are based upon good faith estimates and assumptions believed by management of CSSW Parent and the Borrower to be reasonable at the time made; it being recognized by the Lenders that such projections and pro forma financial information as they relate to future events are not to be viewed as factual and that actual results during the period or periods covered by such financial information may differ from the projected

results set forth therein by a material amount. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, any assumptions, projections, calculations and/or expectations with respect to the receipt of any ITC Grant by CSSW Parent, the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Subsidiaries are purely speculative and no Default or Event of Default under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall arise or result from any such information being included in any Base Case Projections Model or otherwise being provided to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and/or the Lenders.

Each Project Company owns, leases or has rights under easements, rights-of-way or similar instruments in real property sufficient to enable it to conduct its operations, including providing adequate ingress and egress to the Projects, except as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

hereunder and the Administrative Agent and Lenders shall be entitled to exercise any and all remedies available under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, at law or in equity.

Section 11.2 Steel Winds Project and Stetson II Project Event of Default.

(a) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, if an Event of Default hereunder arises from a circumstance or occurrence solely with respect to the Steel Winds Project, the Steel Winds Holding Company or the Steel Winds Project Company (and not with respect to the Cohocton Project, the Stetson I Project or the Cohocton Companies and the Stetson Companies), so long as such circumstance or occurrence would have no material adverse impact on CSSW Parent, the Borrower and the Borrower’s Subsidiaries and their assets, taken as a whole, and would not result in any material liability to CSSW Parent, the Borrower or the Borrower’s Subsidiaries (other than to the assets of the Steel Winds Project, the Steel Winds Holding Company or the Steel Winds Project Company), then automatically, without further action, upon the partial repayment of the Term Loans, in a principal amount equal to $15,000,000, plus accrued interest (including any PIK Interest applicable thereto) less 15/115 of payments and prepayments of principal on the Term Loans made after the Subsequent Closing Date, then such Event of Default shall be deemed cured and shall no longer constitute an Event of Default hereunder. Subsequent to such repayment, solely for purposes of giving rise to an Event of Default under the Loan Documents the Borrower shall not be bound by any covenants contained in this Agreement as relates solely to the Steel Winds Holding Company or the Steel Winds Project Company and any determination of a Default or Event of Default hereunder shall exclude all circumstances or occurrences with respect to the Steel Winds Project or the other assets of the Steel Winds Holding Company or the Steel Winds Project Company, so long as such circumstance or occurrence would have no material adverse impact on CSSW Parent, the Borrower and the Borrower’s Subsidiaries and their assets, taken as a whole, and would not result in any material liability to CSSW Parent, the Borrower or the Borrower’s Subsidiaries (other than to the assets of the Steel Winds Project and Steel Winds Holding Company or the Steel Winds Project Company).

(b) In the event that (x) an Event of Default under the second proviso of Section 11.1(b) has been cured by CSSW Parent, the Borrower or a Stetson Company pursuant to Section 10.1(n) of the Stetson Portfolio Financing Agreement or (y) during the period commencing on July 31, 2010 and ending on the Stetson II COD, the security interests held by the lenders under the Stetson Portfolio Financing in the Stetson II Project and the Equity Interests in the Stetson II Project Company have been terminated and released and the Stetson II Project Company has been fully released from all obligations under the Stetson Portfolio Financing or any Refinancing thereof, including with respect to obligations relating to collateral, and has been removed from all representations, warranties, covenants and events of default thereunder (and the Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent notice and reasonably satisfactory evidence of the foregoing), the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Initial Lenders hereby agree that the changes to the indebtedness baskets, reserve lines, restricted payments, financial covenant levels, required hedging, administrative services agreements and other similar changes shall be restored to those levels and terms set forth in the Original Credit Agreement and that they will promptly enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such changes. In addition, subsequent to such cure under the second proviso of Section 11.1(b) before the Stetson II Funding Date, solely for the purpose of giving rise to an Event of Default under the Loan Documents and only to the extent the Stetson II Project Company and Stetson II Project are and remain fully released and discharged, including with respect to obligations relating to collateral, the Borrower shall not be bound by any covenants contained in this Agreement as relates solely to the Stetson II Project Company and any determination of a Default or Event of Default hereunder shall exclude any circumstance or

108

occurrence with respect to the Stetson II Project or any other assets of the Stetson II Project Company, so long as such circumstance or occurrence should have no material adverse impact on CSSW Parent, the Borrower and the Borrower’s Subsidiaries and their assets, taken as a whole, and would not result in any material lien or material liability of CSSW Parent, the Borrower or the Borrower’s Subsidiaries.

Section 11.3 Acceleration.

(a) If an Event of Default specified in paragraph (g) of Section 11.1 shall occur with respect to the Borrower, Term Loans (with accrued interest thereon) and all other amounts owing under the Loan Documents shall immediately become due and payable.

(b) Subject to Section 9.27, if any Event of Default (other than the Event of Default referred to in Section 11.3(a)) shall occur, then the Administrative Agent (acting at the written direction of the Majority Lenders) may by notice to the Borrower declare the Term Loans, all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other amounts owing to the Lenders under the Loan Documents to be due and payable, whereupon the same shall become immediately due and payable.

(c) Except as expressly provided above in this Section 11.3, presentment, demand, protest and all other notices and other formalities of any kind are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower.

Section 11.4 Other Remedies. Subject to Section 9.27, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default:

(a) The Collateral Agent may, with the written consent of the Majority Lenders, and shall, at the written direction of the Majority Lenders, exercise any or all rights and remedies at law or in equity (in any combination or order that the Majority Lenders may elect), including without limitation or prejudice to the Collateral Agent’s other rights and remedies that are available under any of the Loan Documents.

(b) CSSW Parent and the Borrower hereby appoint the Collateral Agent (acting on the instruction of the Majority Lenders) as the attorney-in-fact of CSSW Parent and the Borrower, with full power of substitution, and in the name of CSSW Parent and the Borrower, if the Collateral Agent, at the direction of the Majority Lenders, or the Majority Lenders elect to do so at any time after the Term Loans have been declared immediately due and payable pursuant to this Article 11, to: (i) advance and incur such expenses as the Majority Lenders deem reasonably necessary, (ii) endorse the name of CSSW Parent or the Borrower on any checks or drafts, representing proceeds of any insurance policies, or other checks or instruments payable to CSSW Parent or the Borrower, (iii) take every action with respect to the Loan Documents which CSSW Parent or the Borrower may take under law or in equity and (iv) prosecute or defend any action or proceedings incident to the foregoing. The power-of-attorney granted hereby is a power coupled with an interest and is irrevocable. The Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to undertake any of the foregoing actions, and, if it takes any

109

such action it shall have no liability to CSSW Parent or the Borrower to continue the same or for the sufficiency or adequacy thereof.

(c) Any funds of any Lender or the Collateral Agent (including the proceeds of any Term Loans) used for any purpose referred to in this Section 11.4, whether or not in excess of the relevant Term Loans, shall (i) be governed hereby, (ii) constitute a part of the Obligations secured by the Security Documents, (iii) bear interest at the Default Rate, and (iv) be payable upon demand by such Lender or the Collateral Agent, as applicable.

Section 11.5 Distribution of Proceeds. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in the other Loan Documents, in the event that following the occurrence or during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Agents or any Lender receives any monies on account of the Obligations from the Borrower or otherwise, such monies shall be distributed for application as follows:

(a) First, to the payment of or the reimbursement of, the Agents for or in respect of all costs, fees, expenses, disbursements and losses that shall have been incurred or sustained by the Agents in connection with the collection of such monies by the Agents, or in connection with the exercise, protection or enforcement by the Agents of all or any of the rights, remedies, powers and privileges of the Agents or the Lenders under this Agreement or any other Loan Document;

(b) Second, to the payment of all interest, including interest on overdue amounts, and late charges, then due and payable with respect to the Term Loans, allocated among the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective outstanding principal amount of Term Loans;

(c) Third, to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loans (including any applicable Call Premium and PIK Interest), allocated among the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective outstanding principal amount of Term Loans;

(d) Fourth, to any other outstanding Obligations, allocated among the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective outstanding principal amount of Term Loans; and

(e) Fifth, the excess, if any, after all Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash, shall be returned to the Borrower or to such other Persons as are lawfully entitled thereto or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the terms “Administrative Agent,” and “Collateral Agent,” in this Agreement with reference to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Requirement of Law. Instead, such terms are used merely as a matter of market custom, and are intended to create or reflect only a relationship between independent contracting parties.

111

the value of or title to any Collateral, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for any failure of the Borrower or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. None of the Agents or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates shall be under any obligation to any Secured Party to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the Properties, books or records of CSSW Parent, the Borrower or any Affiliate of the Borrower.

Section 12.5 Notice of Default.

(a) The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default.” If the Administrative Agent receives any such notice of the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default, it shall give notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be requested by the Majority Lenders in accordance with this Article 12; provided, however, that unless and until the Administrative Agent has received any such request, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Lenders.

Section 12.6 Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that none of the Agents or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by any of the Agents hereafter taken, including any review of the Projects or of the affairs of CSSW Parent, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Agents that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, Property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of CSSW Parent, the Borrower, its Subsidiaries, the Projects, the value of and title to any Collateral, and all applicable bank regulatory Requirements of Law relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to the Borrower hereunder. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, Property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of CSSW Parent, the Borrower, its Subsidiaries and the Projects. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required pursuant to any Loan Document to be furnished to the Lenders by the Agents, the Agents shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, Property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Projects, of CSSW Parent, of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries, which may come into the possession of any Agent or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates.

113

Loans held by such Lender from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to any Agent or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities resulting solely from such Person’s fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(b) The undertakings of the Lenders in this Section 12.7 shall survive the payment of all Obligations hereunder and the resignation or replacement of any Agent.

(c) To the extent permitted by applicable Requirement of Law, no party shall assert, and each party hereby waives, any claim against any Agent or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this agreement, any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, or any Term Loan or the use of proceeds thereof, except for claims in respect of a breach of the confidentiality provisions contained herein or the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Agent or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates.

Section 12.8 Agents in Individual Capacities. Each of the Agents and their respective Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with CSSW Parent, the Borrower or their respective Affiliates as though such Agent were not an Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of the Lenders. The Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, an Agent or its Affiliates may receive information regarding CSSW Parent, the Borrower or their respective Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of CSSW Parent, the Borrower or such Affiliates) and acknowledge that the Agents shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. Any Agent which is also a Lender hereunder shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include such Agent in its individual capacity.

Section 12.9 Successor Agents.

(a) Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor as provided below, each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may resign at any time by giving notice thereof to the other Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower, and each such Agent may be removed at any time with or without cause by the Majority Lenders. So long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower may make a request in writing to the Lenders for the removal of an Agent, stating its reasons for such requested removal, but such removal shall in any event require the affirmative vote of the Majority Lenders in their sole and absolute discretion. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Majority Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) to appoint a successor to the applicable Agent. If no successor Agent shall have been appointed by the Majority Lenders, and shall have

114

accepted such appointment within 30 days after the resigning Agent’s giving of notice of resignation or the giving of any notice of removal of any such Agent, then the resigning Agent or Agent being removed, as the case may be, may appoint a successor to such Agent. If the Collateral Agent shall resign or be removed pursuant to the foregoing provisions, upon the acceptance of appointment by a successor Collateral Agent hereunder, the former Collateral Agent shall deliver all Collateral then in its possession to the successor Collateral Agent. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as a successor Agent hereunder, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of such resigning or removed Agent, and such resigning Agent or removed Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder.

(b) After any Agent’s resignation or removal, the provisions of this Article 12 and of Sections 13.1 and 13.2 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was an Agent.

Section 12.10 Registry. The Borrower hereby designates the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent agrees, to serve as the Borrower’s agent, solely for purposes of this Section 12.10, to maintain a register at the Notice Office (the “Register”) on which it will record the Term Loans made by each of the Lenders (including (i) the names and addresses of all Lenders, (ii) the interests of each Lender and (iii) the principal amounts of the Term Loans owing to each Lender from time to time (including the amount of PIK Interest thereon and any stated interest thereon) and each repayment in respect of the principal amount of the Term Loans of each Lender. Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation shall not affect the Borrower’s obligations in respect of such Term Loans. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrower, the CSSW Parent, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is registered therein for all purposes as a party to this Agreement. With respect to the assignment by any Lender to an assignee pursuant to Section 13.11, the rights to the principal of, and interest on, any Term Loans made shall not be effective until such transfer is recorded on the Register maintained by the Administrative Agent with respect to ownership of such Term Loans, and prior to such recordation all amounts owing to the transferor with respect to such Term Loans shall remain owing to the transferor. The registration of an assignment or transfer of all or part of any Term Loans shall be recorded by the Administrative Agent on the Register only upon the acceptance by the Administrative Agent of a properly executed and delivered Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to Section 13.11. Coincident with the delivery of such an Assignment and Acceptance to the Administrative Agent for acceptance and registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of any Term Loans, or as soon thereafter as practicable, the assigning or transferor Lender shall surrender the Term Note evidencing such Term Loans, and thereupon one or more new Term Notes in the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the assigning or transferor Lender and/or the new Lender. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lenders at any reasonable time, from time to time, upon reasonable prior notice.

Section 12.11 Force Majeure. The Administrative Agent shall not incur any liability for not performing any act or fulfilling any duty, obligation or responsibility hereunder by reason of any occurrence beyond the control of the Administrative Agent (including but not limited to any act or provision of any present or future law or regulation or governmental authority, any act of God or war, civil unrest, local or national disturbance or disaster, any act of terrorism, or the

115

unavailability of the Federal Reserve Bank wire or facsimile or other wire or communication facility.

Section 12.12 Reliance by Administrative Agent. Whenever reference is made in this Agreement to any action by, consent, designation, specification, requirement or approval of, notice, request or other communication from, or other direction given or action to be undertaken or to be (or not to be) suffered or omitted by the Administrative Agent or to any election, decision, opinion, acceptance, use of judgment, expression of satisfaction or other exercise of discretion, rights or remedies to be made (or not to be made) by the Administrative Agent, it is understood that in all cases the Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any such action under this Agreement if it shall not have received such advice or concurrence of the Majority Lenders, as it deems appropriate. This provision is intended solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and its successors and permitted assigns and is not intended to and will not entitle the other parties hereto to any defense, claim or counterclaim, or confer any rights or benefits on any party hereto.

In addition, without duplication of amounts paid as Other Taxes pursuant to Section 4.5(c), CSSW Parent and the Borrower, jointly and severally, shall pay any and all stamp and other taxes and fees payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution, delivery, filing and recording of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, or any other document which may be delivered in connection with this Agreement, and agree to hold the Secured Parties harmless from and against any and all liabilities with respect to or resulting from any delay by CSSW Parent or the Borrower in paying or omission to pay such taxes and fees, provided that CSSW Parent and the Borrower shall not be responsible for any penalties, interest and expenses relating to such taxes

116

and fees that are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable order to have arisen from fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Secured Parties.

Section 13.2 Indemnity. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated:

(a) CSSW Parent and the Borrower, jointly and severally, shall pay, indemnify, save and hold each Secured Party and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, counsel, agents and attorneys-in-fact and Affiliates (each, an “Indemnified Person”) harmless from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, judgments, suits, costs, charges, expenses or disbursements (including Attorney Costs) of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time (including at any time following repayment of the Term Loans or the termination, resignation or replacement of any Agent or any Lender) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such Person in any way relating to, or arising out of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, including the Security Documents and any other document or instrument contemplated by or referred to herein or therein, or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, or any action taken or omitted by any such Person under or in connection with any of the foregoing, including with respect to the exercise by any Secured Party of any of its respective rights or remedies under any of the Loan Documents, and any investigation, litigation or proceeding (including any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar proceeding or appellate proceeding) related to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the Term Loans, or the use of the proceeds thereof, whether or not any Indemnified Person is a party thereto (all the foregoing, collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided that Indemnified Liabilities shall not include Taxes governed by Section 4.5 and shall not include Excluded Taxes, and neither CSSW Parent nor the Borrower shall have any obligation hereunder to any Indemnified Person with respect to Indemnified Liabilities determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable order to have arisen from the fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person.

(b) Environmental Indemnity. Without in any way limiting the generality of the other provisions contained in this Section 13.2, CSSW Parent and the Borrower, jointly and severally, agree to defend, protect, indemnify, save and hold harmless each Indemnified Person, whether as beneficiary of any of the Security Documents, as a mortgagee in possession, or as successor-in-interest to CSSW Parent or the Borrower, by foreclosure deed or deed in lieu of foreclosure, or otherwise, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages (including foreseeable and unforeseeable consequential damages and punitive claims), penalties, fees, claims, actions, judgments, suits, costs, disbursements (including, without limitation, Attorney Costs and consultants’ fees and disbursements) and expenses (collectively, “Losses”) of any kind or nature whatsoever that may at any time be incurred by, imposed on, asserted or awarded against any such Indemnified Person directly or indirectly, based on, or arising out of, or resulting from, (A) the actual or alleged presence of Hazardous Substances on, in, under or affecting all or any portion of the Property whether or not the same originates or emanates from the Property or any property adjoining or adjacent to the Property or from properties at which any Hazardous Substances generated, stored or handled by CSSW Parent, the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries were released or disposed of, (B) any Environmental Claim relating to the Projects or (C) the exercise of any Secured Party’s rights

117

under any of the provisions of the Security Documents (the “Indemnified Matters”), whether any of the Indemnified Matters arise before or after foreclosure of any of the security interests or other taking of title to all or any portion of the Projects by any Secured Party, including, without limitation, (x) the costs of removal or remediation of any and all Hazardous Substances from all or any portion of the Property, any property adjoining or adjacent to the Property, (y) additional costs required to take reasonable precautions to protect against the release of Hazardous Substances on, in, under, from or affecting the Property into the environment, including air, any body of water, any other public domain or any surrounding areas, and (z) costs incurred to comply, in connection with all or any portion of the Property or any surrounding areas, with all applicable Environmental Laws with respect to Hazardous Substances, except to the extent that any such Indemnified Matter is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable order to have arisen from fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person.

(c) Defense of Actions. To the extent that CSSW Parent or the Borrower is unable or unwilling to assume the defense of any claim for which indemnification is required pursuant to the provisions of subsection (a) or (b) of this Section 13.2 (an “Indemnified Claim”) for a period of thirty (30) days following written demand therefor by an Indemnified Person, such Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain separate legal counsel of its own choice to conduct the defense and all related matters in connection with any such litigation, proceeding or other action; provided that an Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain separate counsel whether or not CSSW Parent or the Borrower is able or willing to assume the defense of any such litigation, proceeding or other action if and to the extent that, in the reasonable opinion of such Indemnified Person and its counsel, such action, suit or proceeding involves the potential imposition of criminal liability upon such Indemnified Person or a conflict of interest between such Indemnified Person and CSSW Parent or the Borrower or between such Indemnified Person and another Indemnified Person (unless such conflict of interest is waived in writing by the affected Indemnified Persons). CSSW Parent and the Borrower, jointly and severally, shall pay the reasonable and documented Attorney Costs (other than with respect to disputes between Indemnified Persons), and such legal counsel shall to the fullest extent consistent with its professional responsibilities cooperate with CSSW Parent and the Borrower and any legal counsel designated by CSSW Parent and the Borrower. CSSW Parent and the Borrower shall report to the relevant Indemnified Person on the status of any such action, suit or proceeding the defense of which it has assumed as material developments shall occur and from time to time as requested by such Indemnified Person (but not more frequently than once every sixty (60) days). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, neither CSSW Parent nor the Borrower shall, in connection with any one legal proceeding or claim, or separate but related proceedings or claims arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances in which there is no conflict of interest between the affected Indemnified Persons or any such conflict of interest is waived in writing by the affected Indemnified Persons, be liable to the Indemnified Persons (or any of them) under any of the provisions hereof for Attorney Costs of more than one separate firm of attorneys (which firm shall be selected by the Borrower with the prior written approval of the affected Indemnified Persons, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, or upon failure to so select, by the affected Indemnified Persons).

118

(d) Settlement, Compromise. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and provided the Indemnified Claim does not involve the potential imposition of criminal liability upon such Indemnified Person, no Indemnified Person may compromise or settle any Indemnified Claim involving such Indemnified Person, the defense of which such Indemnified Person has assumed, other than at such Indemnified Person’s own expense, without CSSW Parent’s and the Borrower’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that in no event shall CSSW Parent, the Borrower or any of their respective Affiliates be required, in connection with the compromise or settlement of any Indemnified Claim by an Indemnified Person, to admit any guilt, culpability or complicity, or incur any civil or criminal liability, without the prior written consent of CSSW Parent, the Borrower or such Affiliate of the Borrower, as the case may be, which consent may be granted, conditioned or withheld in such Person’s sole discretion. CSSW Parent and the Borrower further agrees it will not, without the prior written consent of the affected Indemnified Persons, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder in respect of which any Indemnified Person is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person from all liability and obligations that are the subject matter of such action.

(e) Subrogation. Upon payment of any Indemnified Claim by CSSW Parent or the Borrower pursuant to the provisions hereof to or on behalf of an Indemnified Person, CSSW Parent or the Borrower, as the case may be, without any further action, shall be subrogated to any and all claims that such Indemnified Person may have relating thereto, and such Indemnified Person shall reasonably cooperate with CSSW Parent or the Borrower and give such further reasonable assurances as are necessary or advisable to enable CSSW Parent or the Borrower, as the case may be, to vigorously pursue such claims.

(f) Contribution. In the event that the indemnity provided for herein is unavailable or insufficient to hold any Indemnified Person harmless, then, provided such payment is not prohibited by or contrary to any Requirement of Law or public policy, CSSW Parent and the Borrower, jointly and severally, shall contribute to amounts paid or payable by an Indemnified Person in respect of such Indemnified Person’s Indemnified Claims as to which the indemnity provided for herein is unavailable or insufficient in such proportion as appropriately reflects (a) the relative benefits received or expected to be received by CSSW Parent, the Borrower and their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Indemnified Person, on the other hand, in respect of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (b) the relative fault of CSSW Parent, the Borrower and their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Indemnified Person, on the other hand in connection with the acts or omissions which have resulted in the Indemnified Claim, and (c) any other equitable considerations. CSSW Parent, the Borrower and the Secured Parties agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions to be made by CSSW Parent or the Borrower, as the case may be, pursuant to this paragraph were to be determined by any method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to above.

119

(g) Survival; Defense. The obligations in this Section 13.2 shall survive payment of the Term Loans and all other Obligations. All amounts owing under this Section 13.2 shall be paid within 30 days after demand.

Section 13.3 Notices.

(a) All notices, requests and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including, unless the context expressly otherwise provides, by facsimile transmission) and mailed or faxed to the address or facsimile number specified for notices on the applicable signature page of this Agreement or the Assignment and Acceptance or to such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other parties hereto given as provided in this Section 13.3 (each, a “Notice Office”). The initial Notice Office of the Administrative Agent is 00 Xxxxxxxx, 00xx xxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000, Attn: CMES-CSSW, LLC, Tel: 000-000-0000, Fax: 000-000-0000.

(c) CSSW Parent and the Borrower acknowledge and agree that any agreement of the Secured Parties to receive certain notices by telephone is solely for the convenience and at the request of the Borrower. The Secured Parties shall be entitled to rely on the authority of any Person purporting to be a Person authorized by CSSW Parent or the Borrower to give such notice and the Secured Parties shall not have any liability to the Borrower or other Person on account of any action taken or not taken by any of the Secured Parties in good faith reliance upon such telephonic notice.

(d) Notices and other communications to the Lenders hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices pursuant to Article 2 unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the applicable Lender. The Administrative Agent or the Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications.

(e) All notices, requests and other communications hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall be in the English language.

Section 13.4 Benefit of Agreement. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the respective successors and permitted assigns of the parties hereto. Neither CSSW Parent nor the Borrower may assign or otherwise transfer any of their respective rights or obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.

120

The Lenders may only assign their rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as provided in Section 13.11.

Section 13.5 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of any of the Secured Parties in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document and no course of dealing between CSSW Parent, the Borrower and any Secured Party shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder. No notice to or demand on CSSW Parent or the Borrower in any case shall entitle CSSW Parent or the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of any Secured Party to take any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. All remedies, either under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or pursuant to any applicable Requirement of Law or otherwise afforded to any Secured Party shall be cumulative and not alternative.

Section 13.6 No Third Party Beneficiaries. The agreement of each Lender to make extensions of credit to the Borrower on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents is solely for the benefit of CSSW Parent and the Borrower, and no other Person (including any Subsidiary of the Borrower, any Project Participant, or any contractor, sub-contractor, supplier, worker, carrier, warehouseman, materialman or vendor furnishing supplies, goods or services to or for the benefit of the Borrower or any of the Projects or receiving services from the Projects) shall have any rights hereunder against any Secured Party with respect to the Term Loans, the proceeds thereof or otherwise.

Section 13.7 Reinstatement. To the extent that any Secured Party receives any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower, which payment or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to the Borrower or to its estate, trustee, receiver, custodian or any other party under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then to the extent of the amount so required to be repaid, the obligation or part thereof which has been paid, reduced or satisfied by the amount so repaid shall be reinstated by the amount so repaid and shall be included within the Obligations as of the date such initial payment, reduction or satisfaction occurred.

Section 13.8 Accredited Investor. Each Initial Lender represents and warrants to the Borrower that such Initial Lender is an “accredited investor” as defined in Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and under National Instrument 45-106 (Resale of Securities).

Section 13.9 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement by email or facsimile transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart thereof.

121

Section 13.10 Amendment or Waiver.

(a) No provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document may be amended, supplemented, modified or waived, except by a written instrument signed by the Majority Lenders and CSSW Parent, the Borrower and, if applicable, each other Guarantor (as defined in the Guarantee and Security Agreement) (but only if CSSW Parent, the Borrower or such Guarantor is a party thereto). Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, no such waiver and no such amendment, supplement or modification shall (i) postpone or delay the Maturity Date, without the prior written consent of each Lender affected thereby, or postpone or delay any date fixed by this Agreement or any other Loan Document for any payment of principal, interest or other amounts due to any Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document, without the prior written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (ii) reduce the principal of, or the rate or amount of interest or Call Premiums specified in this Agreement on, the Term Loans of any Lender, without the prior written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iii) release all or substantially all of the Collateral or the Guarantors except as shall be otherwise provided in any Security Document or other Loan Document or consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of any of its respective obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, without the prior written consent of each Lender, (iv) amend, modify or waive any provision of this Section 13.10, without the prior written consent of each Lender, (v) amend, modify or waive any provision of Article 12 or any other provision of any Loan Document that affects the Agents without the written consent of the applicable Agent or (vi) reduce the percentage specified in or otherwise amend the definition of Majority Lenders or any other provision specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to approve or consent to any action, without the prior written consent of each Lender.

(b) Any waiver and any amendment, supplement or modification made or entered into in accordance with Section 13.10(a) shall be binding upon CSSW Parent, the Borrower, the Guarantors, the Agents and the Lenders.

Section 13.11 Assignments, Participations, etc.

(a) Subject to compliance with the following sentence, any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees that are not Affiliates of the Borrower (each, an “Assignee” and “Successor Lender”) all or any part of any Term Loans and the other rights and obligations of such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; provided that (i) except with respect to an assignment by a Lender to an entity that is an Affiliate of such Lender, another Lender or a Related Fund, (x) the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for such assignment and (y) so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the prior written consent of the Borrower shall be required for such assignment (which consent shall not be unreasonably delayed, withheld or conditioned), (ii) the Initial Lenders’ obligation to fund the Subsequent Loan may not be assigned without the Borrower’s written consent to be granted in the Borrower’s sole discretion and (iii) after acceleration pursuant to Section 11.3, any Initial Lender, Assignee or Successor Lender may assign to any Person. Any assignment permitted by the previous sentence must comply with the following requirements: (A) each such assignment by a Lender of its Term Loans or its Term Notes shall be made in such a manner so that the same portion of its Term Loans or its Term Notes is assigned to the Assignee; (B) in the case of an assignment of any part of a Term

122

Loan to any Assignee, such assignment shall not be for an amount less than $10,000,000 or a higher integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (or 100% of the assigning Lender’s remaining Term Loans) in each instance; and (C) the Borrower and the Agents may continue to deal solely and directly with the assigning Lender in connection with the interest so assigned until (1) written notice of such assignment, together with payment instructions, addresses, contact information and related information and any required tax forms with respect to the Assignee, shall have been given to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent by such assigning Lender and the Assignee, (2) the assigning Lender or Assignee has paid to the Administrative Agent a processing fee in the amount of $3,500 and (3) the assigning Lender shall have delivered to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance substantially in the form of Exhibit F hereto (an “Assignment and Acceptance”) with respect to such assignment from the assigning Lender.

(b) From and after the date that the Administrative Agent notifies the assigning Lender and the Borrower that it has received (and provided its consent with respect to, if required) an executed Assignment and Acceptance and payment of the above-referenced processing fee and the Borrower has provided its consent to such assignment, if required (such consent not to be unreasonably delayed, withheld or conditioned), (i) the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and this Agreement shall be deemed to be amended to the extent, but only to the extent, necessary to effect the addition of the Assignee, and any reference to the assigning Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall thereafter refer to such Lender and to the Assignee to the extent of their respective interests, and (ii) the assigning Lender shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.8, Section 4.5, Section 13.1 and Section 13.2. At the time of each assignment pursuant to Section 13.11(a) to a Person which is not already a Lender hereunder, the respective assignee Lender shall provide to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent the appropriate Internal Revenue Service Forms described in Section 4.5(f). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights and obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 13.11(a) and (b) shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (d).

(c) Within fifteen (15) days after the Borrower has received a notice from the Administrative Agent that it has received an executed Assignment and Acceptance and payment of the processing fee, if requested by the Assignee or the assigning Lender, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent new Term Notes evidencing the Assignee’s assigned Term Loans and, if the assigning Lender has retained a portion of its Term Loans, replacement Term Notes reflecting the principal amount of the Term Loans retained by the assigning Lender (such Term Notes to be in exchange for, but not in payment of, the Term Notes held by such Lender).

(d) Any Lender (the “Originating Lender”) may at any time sell to one or more commercial banks or other Persons not Affiliates of the Borrower (a “Participant”) participating interests in any Term Loans; provided, however, that (i) each such Participant

123

shall be an Eligible Assignee, (ii) the Originating Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (iii) the Originating Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance of such obligations, (iv) the Borrower and the Agents shall continue to deal solely and directly with the Originating Lender in connection with the Originating Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and (v) no Lender shall transfer or grant any participating interest under which the Participant shall have rights to approve any amendment to, or any consent or waiver with respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except to the extent such amendment, consent or waiver would require consent of any affected Lender or all of the Lenders as described in Section 13.10. In the case of any such participation, the Participant shall not have any rights under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents (the Participant’s rights against the Originating Lender in respect of such Participation to be those set forth in the agreement executed by the Originating Lender in favor of the Participant relating thereto) and all amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation.

(e) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment with respect to a participation sold to such Participant than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive under Section 2.8 and 4.5, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant shall not be entitled (i) to the benefits of Section 4.5 that the applicable Lender is entitled to unless such Participant complies with Section 4.5(f), or (ii) with respect to a Participation that has been consented to by the Borrower pursuant to the previous sentence, to receive any greater payment with respect to the participation sold to such Participant than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive under Section 4.5 unless the Participant (x) would be entitled to amounts under Section 4.5 if it were treated as an assignee as of the date of such participation and (y) complies with Section 4.5(f) by providing to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent each form and certificate that would be required to be provided to them pursuant to Section 4.5(f) as if the Participant was a Lender.

(f) Subject to Section 13.11(a) hereof, any Lender may pledge or assign all or any portion of the Term Loans held by it as collateral security to secured obligations of the Lender and this Section 13.11 shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment. No such pledge or assignment shall release the assigning Lender from its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledge or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(g) In the event that any Lender sells a participation in a Term Loan, such Lender shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of all Participants in the Term Loans held by it and the principal amount (including the amount of PIK Interest and any stated interest thereon) of the portion of the Loan which is the subject of the participation (the “Participation Register”) and each repayment in respect of the principal amount of the portion of the Term Loan held by each Participant. A Term Loan may be participated in whole or in part only by registration of such participation on the Participation Register. Any transfer of such participation may be effected only by the Registration of such transfer on the Participation Register. The entries in the Participation Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error and such Lender shall treat such participants whose name is recorded in the Participation Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

124

The Participation Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent at any reasonable time upon reasonable prior notice.

Section 13.12 Survival. All indemnities set forth herein, including, without limitation, Section 13.2, shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Term Notes and the making and repayment of the Term Loans. In addition, each representation and warranty made or deemed to be made pursuant hereto shall survive the making of such representation and warranty.

Section 13.13 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES THE RIGHT ANY OF THEM MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION BASED ON, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THIS AGREEMENT, THE TERM NOTES OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENTS (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY RELATING HERETO OR THERETO. THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR THE SECURED PARTIES TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT.

Section 13.14 Right of Set-off. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable Requirements of Law or otherwise, and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Lender is hereby authorized at any time or from time to time, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind to the Borrower or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Lender (including without limitation by branches and agencies of any Lender wherever located), to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against and on account of the Obligations or liabilities of the Borrower to such Lender under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, including all claims of any nature or description arising out of or connected with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, irrespective of whether such Lender shall have made any demand hereunder and although said Obligations, liabilities or claims, or any of them, shall be contingent or unmatured.

Section 13.15 Severability. Any provision hereof which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof and without affecting the validity or enforceability of any provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 13.16 Domicile of Loans. Each Lender may transfer and carry its Term Loans at, to or for the account of any office, Subsidiary or Affiliate of such Lender.

Section 13.17 Limitation of Recourse. There shall be full recourse to CSSW Parent and the Borrower and to all of their respective assets for the liabilities of CSSW Parent and the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents for the Obligations, but in no event shall the Parent or any officer, director or holder of any equity interest in CSSW Parent, the Borrower or the Parent be personally liable or obligated for such liabilities and Obligations, except as it has specifically agreed to in any Loan Document to which it is a party. Nothing

125

contained herein shall affect or diminish any rights of any Person against any other Person for such other Person’s fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Section 13.18 Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction.

(a) THIS AGREEMENT AND EACH OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (UNLESS SUCH DOCUMENT EXPRESSLY STATES OTHERWISE THEREIN) SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

Each party hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirement of Law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such proceeding brought in such a court and any claim that any such proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Nothing herein shall affect the right to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable Requirements of Law or any right to bring legal action or proceedings in any other competent jurisdiction, including judicial or non-judicial foreclosure of real property interests which are part of the Collateral. To the extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, each party hereto further irrevocably agrees to the service of process of any of the aforementioned courts in any suit, action or proceeding by the mailing of copies thereof by certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, to such party at the address referenced in Section 13.3, such service to be effective upon the date indicated on the postal receipt returned from such party.

(b) Anything herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum liability of each Guarantor hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall in no event exceed the amount which can be guaranteed by such Guarantor

under applicable federal and state laws relating to fraudulent conveyances, transfers or the insolvency of debtors (after giving effect to the right of contribution established in Section 2.2).

(c) Each Guarantor agrees that the Borrower Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the amount of the liability of such Guarantor hereunder without impairing the guarantee of such Guarantor contained in this Section 2 or affecting the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party hereunder.

(d) Subject to Section 8.15 hereof, the guarantee contained in this Section 2 shall remain in full force and effect until all the Borrower Obligations and the obligations of each Guarantor under the guarantee contained in this Section 2 shall have been satisfied by full and final payment in cash and the Initial Term Loan Commitment and Subsequent Term Loan Commitment shall be terminated, notwithstanding that from time to time during the term of the Credit Agreement the Borrower may be free from any Borrower Obligations.

(e) No payment made by the Borrower, any of the Guarantors, any other guarantor or any other Person or received or collected by the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party from the Borrower, any of the Guarantors, any other guarantor or any other Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any set-off or appropriation or application at any time or from time to time in reduction of or in payment of the Borrower Obligations shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the liability of any Guarantor hereunder which shall, notwithstanding any such payment (other than any payment made by such Guarantor in respect of the Borrower Obligations or any payment received or collected from such Guarantor in respect of the Borrower Obligations), remain liable for the Borrower Obligations up to the maximum liability of such Guarantor hereunder until the Borrower Obligations are paid in full and the Initial Term Loan Commitment and Subsequent Term Loan Commitment are terminated.

2.2 Right of Contribution. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that a Subsidiary Guarantor shall have paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made hereunder, such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder which has not paid its proportionate share of such payment. Each Subsidiary Guarantor’s right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 2.3. The provisions of this Section 2.2 shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Subsidiary Guarantor to the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties, and each Subsidiary Guarantor shall remain liable to the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties for the full amount guaranteed by such Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder.

2.3 No Subrogation. Notwithstanding any payment made by any Guarantor hereunder or any set-off or application of funds of any Guarantor by the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party, no Guarantor shall be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party against the Borrower or any other Guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of set-off held by the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party for the payment of the Borrower Obligations, nor shall any Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from the Borrower or any other Guarantor in respect of payments made by such Guarantor hereunder, until all amounts owing to the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties by the Borrower on account of the Borrower Obligations are paid in full and the Initial Term Loan Commitment and Subsequent Term Loan Commitment are terminated. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Borrower Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by such Guarantor in trust for the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties, segregated from

other funds of such Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Guarantor, be turned over to the Collateral Agent in the exact form received by such Guarantor (duly indorsed by such Guarantor to the Collateral Agent, if required), to be applied against the Borrower Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as the Collateral Agent, at the direction of the Majority Lenders, may determine.

2.4 Amendments, etc. with respect to the Borrower Obligations. Each Guarantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against any Guarantor and without notice to or further assent by any Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Borrower Obligations made by the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party may be rescinded by the Collateral Agent or such Secured Party and any of the Borrower Obligations continued, and the Borrower Obligations, or the liability of any other Person upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of set-off with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party, and the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents executed and delivered in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, as the Collateral Agent (or the Majority Lenders or all Lenders, as the case may be) may deem advisable from time to time, and any collateral security, guarantee or right of set-off at any time held by the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party for the payment of the Borrower Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. Neither the Collateral Agent nor any Secured Party shall have any obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien at any time held by it as security for the Borrower Obligations or for the guarantee contained in this Section 2 or any property subject thereto.

2.5 Guarantee Absolute and Unconditional. Each Guarantor waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Borrower Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party upon the guarantee contained in this Section 2 or acceptance of the guarantee contained in this Section 2; the Borrower Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived, in reliance upon the guarantee contained in this Section 2; and all dealings between the Borrower and any of the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties, on the other hand, likewise shall be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon the guarantee contained in this Section 2. Each Guarantor waives diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon the Borrower or any of the Guarantors with respect to the Borrower Obligations. Each Guarantor understands and agrees that the guarantee contained in this Section 2 shall be construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to (a) the validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, any of the Borrower Obligations or any other collateral security therefor or guarantee or right of set-off with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party, (b) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by the Borrower or any other Person against the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party, or (c) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of the Borrower or such Guarantor) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of the Borrower for the Borrower Obligations, or of such Guarantor under the guarantee of such Guarantor contained in this Section 2, in bankruptcy

or in any other instance. When making any demand hereunder or otherwise pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against any Guarantor, the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on or otherwise pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or against any collateral security or guarantee for the Borrower Obligations or any right of set-off with respect thereto, and any failure by the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party to make any such demand, to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guarantee or to exercise any such right of set-off, or any release of the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or any such collateral security, guarantee or right of set-off, shall not relieve any Guarantor of any obligation or liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party against any Guarantor. For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings.

2.6 Reinstatement. The guarantee contained in this Section 2 shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Borrower Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Borrower or any Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Borrower or any Guarantor or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made.

2.7 Payments. Payments by any Guarantor made hereunder will be paid to the Collateral Agent without set-off or counterclaim in Dollars at the Payment Office of the Collateral Agent specified in the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 3. GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST

3.1 Grant of Security Interest. Each Grantor hereby assigns and transfers to the Collateral Agent, and hereby grants to the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, a security interest in, all of the following property now owned or at any time hereafter acquired by such Grantor or in which such Grantor now has or at any time in the future may acquire any right, title or interest (collectively, the “Collateral”), as collateral security for the prompt and complete payment and performance when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of such Grantor’s Obligations:

(a) all Accounts;

(b) all Chattel Paper;

(d) all Deposit Accounts;

(e) all Documents;

(p) all books and records pertaining to the Collateral; and

(q) to the extent not otherwise included, all Proceeds, Supporting Obligations and products of any and all of the foregoing and all collateral security and guarantees given by any Person with respect to any of the foregoing;

provided, however, that notwithstanding any of the other provisions set forth in this Section 3.1, this Agreement shall not constitute a grant of a security interest in any property to the extent that such grant of a security interest is prohibited by any Requirements of Law of a Governmental Authority, requires a consent not obtained of any Governmental Authority pursuant to such Requirement of Law or is prohibited by, or constitutes a breach or default under or results in the termination of or requires any consent not obtained under, any contract, license, agreement, instrument or other document evidencing or giving rise to such property or, in the case of any Investment Property, Pledged Stock or Pledged Note, any applicable shareholder or similar agreement, except to the extent that such Requirement of Law or the term in such contract, license, agreement, instrument or other document or shareholder or similar agreement providing for such prohibition, breach, default or termination or requiring such consent is ineffective under applicable law; provided that any such property shall be excluded from such security interest only to the extent and for so long as the consequences specified above shall exist

and shall cease to be excluded and shall be subject to the Lien of the Security Documents immediately and automatically at such time as such consequence shall no longer exist.

3.2 Deposit Accounts. Each Grantor agrees that upon the opening by it of any Deposit Account, the Collateral Agent shall have “control” (as defined in Section 9-104, 9-105, 9-106 or 9-107 of the UCC) with respect to all cash and other Collateral on deposit therein. Each Grantor hereby agrees that in the event it opens a Deposit Account, it shall execute and deliver a deposit account control agreement (a “Deposit Account Control Agreement”) with respect to such Deposit Account to the Collateral Agent within 30 days of opening such Deposit Account, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent. No Grantor shall have any account other than a Deposit Account and no Grantor shall deposit any cash or other Collateral into any account other than a Deposit Account subject to a Deposit Account Control Agreement with the Collateral Agent.

SECTION 4. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

To induce the Agents and the Initial Lenders to enter into the Credit Agreement and to induce the Initial Lenders to make their respective extensions of credit to the Borrower thereunder, each Grantor hereby represents and warrants to the Agents and each Lender that:

4.1 Title; No Other Liens. Except for the security interest granted to the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to this Agreement and Permitted Liens on the Collateral under the Credit Agreement, such Grantor owns each item of the Collateral free and clear of any and all Liens, encumbrances or claims of others. No financing statement or other public notice with respect to all or any part of the Collateral is on file or of record in any public office, except such as have been filed in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, pursuant to this Agreement or as are

permitted under the Credit Agreement. No Person shall have “control” (as defined in Section 9-104, 9-105, 9-106 or 9-107 of the UCC) of any Deposit Account, Chattel Paper, Investment Property or Letter-of-Credit Right constituting part of the Collateral other than the Collateral Agent. For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that any Grantor may, as part of its business, grant licenses to third parties to use Intellectual Property owned or developed by a Grantor. For purposes of restriction on Liens and encumbrances under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, such licensing activity shall not constitute a “Lien” on such Intellectual Property. Each of the Collateral Agent and each Secured Party understands that any such licenses may be exclusive to the applicable licensees, and such exclusivity provisions may limit the ability of the Collateral Agent to utilize, sell, lease or transfer the related Intellectual Property or otherwise realize value from such Intellectual Property pursuant hereto.

4.2 Perfected First Priority Liens. The security interests granted pursuant to this Agreement (a) upon execution and delivery of any relevant Deposit Account Control Agreements and upon completion of the filings and other actions specified on Schedule 2 (which, in the case of all filings and other documents referred to on said Schedule, have been delivered to the Collateral Agent in completed and duly executed form) will constitute valid perfected security interests in all of the Collateral in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, as collateral security for such Grantor’s Obligations, enforceable in accordance with the terms hereof against all creditors of such Grantor and any Persons purporting to purchase any Collateral from such Grantor and (b) are prior to all other Liens on the Collateral in existence on the date hereof except for, in the case of Liens on Steel Winds Companies, Permitted Liens (other than as described in clause (n) of the definition of “Permitted Liens”).

4.3 Jurisdiction of Organization; Federal Identification Number; Chief Executive Office. On the date hereof, such Grantor’s jurisdiction of organization, federal identification number from the jurisdiction of organization (if any), and the location of such Grantor’s chief executive office or sole place of business or principal residence, as the case may be, are specified on Schedule 3.

4.4 Investment Property. (a) The shares of Pledged Stock pledged by such Grantor hereunder constitute all the issued and outstanding shares of all classes of the Equity Interests of each Issuer owned by such Grantor.

(b) All the shares of the Pledged Stock have been duly and validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable. None of the Pledged Stock is subject to any voting trust, shareholder agreement or voting agreement or other agreement, right instrument or understanding with respect to any purchase, sale, issuance, transfer, repurchase, redemption or voting agreement, other than limited liability company agreements, partnership agreements or other governing documents of the relevant Issuer. None of the Pledged Stock is subject to an existing option, warrant, call, right, commitment or other agreement, and there is no membership interest or other Equity Interests outstanding required to be pledged hereunder in any Subsidiary, that upon conversion or exchange would require, the issuance by the applicable Grantor of any additional membership interests or other Equity Interests of such Subsidiary or other securities convertible into, exchangeable for or evidencing the right to subscribe for or purchase, a membership interest or other Equity Interests of such Subsidiary.

(c) Unless otherwise consented to by the Collateral Agent, Equity Interests required to be pledged hereunder in any Subsidiary that is organized as a limited liability company or limited partnership and pledged hereunder shall either (i) be represented by a

certificate, and in the Organizational Documents of such Subsidiary, the applicable Grantor shall cause the Issuer of such interests to elect to treat such interests as a “security” within the meaning of Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code of its jurisdiction of organization or formation, as applicable, by including in its Organizational Documents language substantially similar to the following and, accordingly, such interests shall be governed by Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code:

“The [partnership/limited liability company] hereby irrevocably elects that all [partnership/membership] interests in the [partnership/limited liability company] shall be securities governed by Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code of [jurisdiction of organization or formation, as applicable]. Each certificate evidencing [partnership/membership] interests in the [partnership/limited liability company] shall bear the following legend: “This certificate evidences an interest in [name of [partnership/limited liability company]] and shall be a security for purposes of Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code.” No change to this provision shall be effective until all outstanding certificates have been surrendered for cancellation and any new certificates thereafter issued shall not bear the foregoing legend.”

or (ii) not have elected to be treated as a “security” within the meaning of Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code and shall not be represented by a certificate.

(d) Each of the Pledged Notes constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the obligor with respect thereto, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally and general equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

(e) Such Grantor is the record and beneficial owner of, and has good and marketable title to, the Investment Property pledged by it hereunder, free and clear of any and all Liens, encumbrances or options in favor of, or claims of, any other Person, except the security interest created by this Agreement and as permitted by the Credit Agreement.

4.5 Intellectual Property. (a) Schedule 4 lists all material Intellectual Property owned by such Grantor in its own name on the date hereof.

(b) On the date hereof, all material Intellectual Property is valid, subsisting, unexpired and enforceable, has not been abandoned and does not knowingly infringe the intellectual property rights of any other Person.

4.6 Commercial Tort Claims. (a) On the date hereof, no Grantor has rights in any Commercial Tort Claim with potential value in excess of $500,000.

(b) Upon the filing of a financing statement covering any Commercial Tort Claim referred to in Section 5.6 hereof against such Grantor in the jurisdiction specified in Schedule 3 hereto, the security interest granted in such Commercial Tort Claim will constitute a valid perfected security interest in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, as collateral security for such Grantor’s Obligations, enforceable in accordance with the terms hereof against all creditors of such Grantor and any Persons purporting to purchase such Collateral from Grantor, which security interest shall be prior to all other Liens on such Collateral except for unrecorded liens permitted by the Credit Agreement which have priority over the Liens on such Collateral by operation of law.

4.7 Deposit Accounts and Securities Accounts. Schedule 7 sets forth a complete and correct list of all Deposit Accounts and Securities Accounts for each Grantor on the date hereof.

SECTION 5. COVENANTS

Each Grantor covenants and agrees with the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties that, from and after the date of this Agreement until the Obligations shall have been paid in full and the Initial Term Loan Commitment and Subsequent Term Loan Commitment shall have terminated:

5.1 Delivery of Instruments, Certificated Securities and Chattel Paper. If any amount payable under or in connection with any of the Collateral shall be or become evidenced by any Instrument, Certificated Security or Chattel Paper, upon its receipt thereof, the Grantor shall promptly deliver to the Collateral Agent such Instrument, Certificated Security or Chattel Paper, as applicable, duly indorsed in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, to be held as Collateral pursuant to this Agreement.

5.2 Maintenance of Perfected Security Interest; Further Documentation. (a) Such Grantor shall maintain the security interest created by this Agreement as a perfected security interest having at least the priority described in Section 4.2 and shall defend such security interest against the claims and demands of all Persons whomsoever, subject to the rights of such Grantor under the Loan Documents to dispose of or pledge the Collateral.

(b) Such Grantor will furnish to the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties from time to time statements and schedules further identifying and describing the assets and property of such Grantor as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request, all in reasonable detail.

(c) At any time and from time to time, upon the written request of the Collateral Agent, and at the sole expense of such Grantor, such Grantor will promptly and duly execute and deliver, and have recorded, such further instruments and documents and take such further actions as the Collateral Agent or any Lender may reasonably request for the purpose of

obtaining or preserving the full benefits of this Agreement and of the rights and powers herein granted, including, without limitation, (i) the filing of any financing or continuation statements under the Uniform Commercial Code (or other similar laws) in effect in any jurisdiction with respect to the security interests created hereby and (ii) subject to Section 3.2, in the case of Deposit Accounts and Letter-of-Credit Rights and any other relevant Collateral, taking any commercially reasonable actions necessary to enable the Collateral Agent to obtain “control” (within the meaning of the applicable Uniform Commercial Code) with respect thereto.

5.3 Changes in Name, etc. Such Grantor will not, (a) except upon 30 days’ prior written notice to the Collateral Agent and delivery to the Collateral Agent of all additional financing statements and other documents reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent to maintain the validity, perfection and priority of the security interests provided for herein, change its jurisdiction of organization or the location of its chief executive office or sole place of business or principal residence from that referred to in Section 4.3 or (b) except upon 10 days’ prior written notice to the Collateral Agent and delivery to the Collateral Agent of all additional financing statements and other documents reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent to maintain the validity, perfection and priority of the security interests provided for herein, change its name.

5.4 Investment Property. (a) If such Grantor shall become entitled to receive or shall receive any certificate (including, without limitation, any certificate representing a dividend or a distribution in connection with any reclassification, increase or reduction of capital or any certificate issued in connection with any reorganization), option or rights in respect of the Equity Interests of any Issuer, whether in addition to, in substitution of, as a conversion of, or in exchange for, any shares of the Pledged Stock, or otherwise in respect thereof, such Grantor shall

accept the same as the agent of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties, hold the same in trust for the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties and deliver the same forthwith to the Collateral Agent in the exact form received, duly indorsed by such Grantor to the Collateral Agent, if required, together with an undated stock power covering such certificate duly executed in blank by such Grantor and with, if the Collateral Agent so requests, signature guaranteed, to be held by the Collateral Agent, subject to the terms hereof, as additional collateral security for the Obligations. Any sums paid upon or in respect of Pledged Stock or Pledged Notes and except as otherwise expressly provided in the Credit Agreement, any other Investment Property, upon the liquidation or dissolution of any Issuer shall be paid over to the Collateral Agent to be held by it hereunder as additional collateral security for the Obligations, and in case any distribution of capital constituting Collateral shall be made on or in respect of such Investment Property or any property shall be distributed upon or with respect to such Investment Property pursuant to the recapitalization or reclassification of the capital of any Issuer or pursuant to the reorganization thereof, the property constituting Collateral so distributed shall, unless otherwise subject to a perfected security interest in favor of the Collateral Agent, be delivered to the Collateral Agent to be held by it hereunder as additional collateral security for the Obligations. If any sums of money or property constituting Collateral so paid or distributed in respect of the Investment Property shall be received by such Grantor, such Grantor shall, until such money or property is paid or delivered to the Collateral Agent, hold such money or property in trust for the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties, segregated from other funds of such Grantor, as additional collateral security for the Obligations.

(b) Without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent, such Grantor will not (i) vote to enable, or take any other action to permit, any Issuer to issue any Equity

Interests of any nature or to issue any other securities convertible into or granting the right to purchase or exchange for any Equity Interests of any nature of any Issuer, unless such securities are delivered to the Collateral Agent, concurrently with the issuance thereof, to be held by the Collateral Agent as Collateral, (ii) sell, assign, transfer, exchange, or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, the Investment Property or Proceeds thereof (except pursuant to a transaction expressly permitted by the Credit Agreement), (iii) create, incur or permit to exist any Lien, encumbrance or option in favor of, or any claim of any Person with respect to, any of the Investment Property or Proceeds thereof, or any interest therein, except for the security interests created by this Agreement or Permitted Liens under the Credit Agreement or (iv) enter into any agreement or undertaking restricting the right or ability of such Grantor or the Collateral Agent to sell, assign or transfer any of the Investment Property or Proceeds thereof.

(c) In the case of each Grantor which is an Issuer, such Issuer agrees that (i) it will be bound by the terms of this Agreement relating to the Investment Property issued by it and will comply with such terms insofar as such terms are applicable to it and (ii) the terms of Sections 6.2(c) and 6.6 shall apply to it, mutatis mutandis, with respect to all actions that may be required of it pursuant to Section 6.2(c) or 6.6 with respect to the Investment Property issued by it.

5.5 Intellectual Property. Such Grantor shall take commercially reasonable actions to maintain the value and validity of all Intellectual Property owned by it that is material to its business, except to the extent the failure to take any such action could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

30 days of obtaining such interest sign and deliver documentation reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent granting a security interest under the terms and provisions of this Agreement in and to such Commercial Tort Claim.

SECTION 6. REMEDIAL PROVISIONS

6.1 Grantors Remain Liable. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Grantor shall remain liable under each of the Contracts to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder, all in accordance with the terms of any agreement giving rise thereto and neither the Collateral Agent nor any Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability under any Contract by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the receipt by the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party of any payment relating thereto. Neither the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party shall be obligated in any manner to perform any of the obligations of any Grantor under or pursuant to any Contract, to make any payment, to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by it or as to the sufficiency of any performance by any party thereunder, to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any performance or to collect the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times.

6.2 Pledged Stock. (a) Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Collateral Agent shall have given notice to the relevant Grantor of the Collateral Agent’s intent to exercise its corresponding rights pursuant to Section 6.2(b), each Grantor shall be permitted to receive all cash dividends paid in respect of the Pledged Stock and all payments made in respect of the Pledged Notes, in each case, paid in the normal course of business of the relevant Issuer and consistent with past practice, to the extent permitted in the

Credit Agreement, and to exercise all voting and corporate or other organizational rights with respect to the Investment Property; provided, however, that no vote shall be cast or corporate or other organizational right exercised or other action taken which, in the Majority Lenders’ reasonable judgment, would materially impair the Pledged Stock or which would result in any violation of any provision of the Credit Agreement, this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(b) If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing and the Collateral Agent shall give notice of its intent to exercise such rights to the relevant Grantor or Grantors, (i) the Collateral Agent shall have the right to receive any and all cash dividends, payments or other Proceeds paid in respect of the Investment Property and make application thereof to the Obligations in such order as the Collateral Agent may determine, and (ii) any or all of the Investment Property shall be registered in the name of the Collateral Agent or its nominee, and the Collateral Agent or its nominee may thereafter exercise (x) all voting, corporate and other rights pertaining to such Investment Property at any meeting of shareholders of the relevant Issuer or Issuers or otherwise and (y) any and all rights of conversion, exchange and subscription and any other rights, privileges or options pertaining to such Investment Property as if it were the absolute owner thereof (including, without limitation, the right to exchange at its discretion any and all of the Investment Property upon the merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other fundamental change in the corporate or other organizational structure of any Issuer, or upon the exercise by any Grantor or the Collateral Agent of any right, privilege or option pertaining to such Investment Property, and in connection therewith, the right to deposit and deliver any and all of the Investment Property with any committee, depositary, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency upon such terms and conditions as the Collateral

Agent may determine), all without liability except to account for property actually received by it, but the Collateral Agent shall have no duty to any Grantor to exercise any such right, privilege or option and shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so doing.

(c) Each Grantor hereby authorizes and instructs each Issuer of any Investment Property pledged by such Grantor hereunder to (i) comply with any instruction received by it from the Collateral Agent in writing that (x) states that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (y) is otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without any other or further instructions from such Grantor, and each Grantor agrees that each Issuer shall be fully protected in so complying and (ii) unless otherwise expressly permitted hereby, pay any dividends or other payments with respect to the Investment Property directly to the Collateral Agent.

6.3 Proceeds to be Turned Over To Collateral Agent. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, all Proceeds received by any Grantor consisting of cash, checks and other near cash items shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties, segregated from other funds of such Grantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Grantor, be turned over to the Collateral Agent in the exact form received by such Grantor (duly indorsed by such Grantor to the Collateral Agent, if required). All Proceeds received by the Collateral Agent hereunder shall be held by the Collateral Agent in a Collateral Account maintained under its sole dominion and control. All Proceeds while held by the Collateral Agent in a Collateral Account (or by such Grantor in trust for the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties) shall continue to be held as collateral security for all the Obligations and shall not constitute payment thereof until applied as provided in Section 6.4.

6.4 Application of Proceeds. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent shall apply all or any part of Proceeds constituting Collateral, whether or not held in any Collateral Account, and any proceeds of the guarantee set forth in Section 2, in payment of the Obligations then due and owing in accordance with Section 11.5 of the Credit Agreement and the Collateral Agent shall retain any other proceeds constituting Collateral in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

6.5 Code and Other Remedies. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, may exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to them in this Agreement and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Obligations, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the New York UCC or any other applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Collateral Agent, without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by law referred to below) to or upon any Grantor or any other Person (all and each of which demands, defenses, advertisements and notices are hereby waived), may in such circumstances forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give option or options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Collateral or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker’s board or office of the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. The Collateral Agent or any Secured Party shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such

private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in any Grantor, which right or equity is hereby waived and released. Each Grantor further agrees, at the Collateral Agent’s request, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Collateral Agent at places which the Collateral Agent shall reasonably select, whether at such Grantor’s premises or elsewhere. The Collateral Agent shall apply the net proceeds of any action taken by it pursuant to this Section 6.5 with respect to any Grantor’s Collateral, after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred for the care or safekeeping of any of the Collateral of such Grantor or in any way relating to preserving or maintaining the Collateral of such Grantor or the rights of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties hereunder with respect thereto, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the Obligations of such Grantor, in such order as the Collateral Agent may elect and only after such application and after the payment by the Collateral Agent of any other amount required by any provision of law, including, without limitation, Section 9-615(a)(3) of the New York UCC, need the Collateral Agent account for the surplus, if any, to any Grantor. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Grantor waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party arising out of the exercise by them of any rights hereunder. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least 10 days before such sale or other disposition.

6.6 Sale of Pledged Stock. (a) Each Grantor recognizes that the Collateral Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all the Pledged Stock, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or otherwise, and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted group of

purchasers which will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. The Collateral Agent shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Stock for the period of time necessary to permit the Issuer thereof to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act, or under applicable state securities laws, even if such Issuer would agree to do so.

(b) Each Grantor agrees to use its best efforts to do or cause to be done all such other acts as may be necessary to make such sale or sales of all or any portion of the Pledged Stock pursuant to this Section 6.6 valid and binding and in compliance with any and all other applicable Requirements of Law. Each Grantor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 6.6 will cause irreparable injury to the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties, that the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section 6.6 shall be specifically enforceable against such Grantor, and such Grantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred or is continuing under the Credit Agreement.

6.7 Subordination. Each Grantor hereby agrees that, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, unless otherwise agreed by the Collateral Agent,

all Indebtedness owing by it to any Subsidiary of any Grantor shall be fully subordinated to the indefeasible payment in full in cash of such Grantor’s Obligations.

6.8 Deficiency. Each Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay its Obligations and reasonable Attorney Costs and expenses of the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party to collect such deficiency.

SECTION 7. THE COLLATERAL AGENT

7.1 Collateral Agent’s Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact, etc. (a) Each Grantor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Collateral Agent and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor or in its own name, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Agreement, subject to the last sentence of this Section 7.1(a), to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor hereby gives the Collateral Agent the power and right, on behalf of such Grantor, without notice to or assent by such Grantor, to do any or all of the following:

(i) in the name of such Grantor or its own name, or otherwise, take possession of and indorse and collect any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other instruments for the payment of moneys due under any Contract or with respect to any other Collateral and file any claim or take any other action or proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by the Collateral Agent for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due under any Contract or with respect to any other Collateral whenever payable;

(ii) in the case of any Intellectual Property, execute and deliver, and have recorded, any and all agreements, instruments, documents and papers as the Collateral Agent or any Lender may request to evidence the Collateral Agent’s and the Secured Parties’ security interest in such Intellectual Property and the goodwill and general intangibles of such Grantor relating thereto or represented thereby;

(iii) pay or discharge taxes and Liens levied or placed on or threatened against the Collateral, effect any repairs or any insurance called for by the terms of the Credit Agreement and pay all or any part of the premiums therefor and the costs thereof;

(iv) execute, in connection with any sale provided for in Sections 6.5 or 6.6, any indorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Collateral; and

(v) (1) direct any party liable for any payment under any of the Collateral to make payment of any and all moneys due or to become due thereunder directly to the Collateral Agent or as the Collateral Agent shall direct; (2) ask or demand for, collect, and receive payment of and receipt for, any and all moneys, claims and other amounts due or to become due at any time in respect of or arising out of any Collateral; (3) sign and indorse any invoices, freight or express bills, bills of lading, storage or warehouse receipts, drafts against debtors, assignments, verifications, notices and other documents in connection with any of the Collateral; (4) commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Collateral or any portion thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of any Collateral; (5) defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against such Grantor with respect to any Collateral; (6) settle, compromise or adjust any such suit, action or proceeding and, in connection therewith, give such discharges or releases as the Collateral Agent

may deem appropriate; (7) assign any Copyright, Patent or Trademark (along with the goodwill of the business to which any such Copyright, Patent or Trademark pertains), throughout the world for such term or terms, on such conditions, and in such manner, as the Collateral Agent shall in its sole discretion determine; and (8) generally, sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully and completely as though the Collateral Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and do, at the Collateral Agent’s option and such Grantor’s expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things which the Collateral Agent deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and the Collateral Agent’s and the Secured Parties’ security interests therein and to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as such Grantor might do.

Anything in this Section 7.1(a) to the contrary notwithstanding, the Collateral Agent agrees that it will not exercise any rights under the power of attorney provided for in this Section 7.1(a) unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

(b) If any Grantor fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained herein, the Collateral Agent, at its option, but without any obligation so to do, may perform or comply, or otherwise cause performance or compliance, with such agreement.

(c) The reasonable expenses of the Collateral Agent incurred in connection with actions undertaken as provided in this Section 7.1, together with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the highest rate per annum at which interest would then be payable on any past due Term Loans under the Credit Agreement, from the date of payment by the Collateral Agent to the date reimbursed by the relevant Grantor, shall be payable by such Grantor to the Collateral Agent immediately upon demand.

(d) Each Grantor hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. All powers, authorizations and agencies contained in this Agreement are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable until this Agreement is terminated and the security interests created hereby are released.

7.2 Duty of Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the New York UCC or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as the Collateral Agent deals with similar property for its own account. Neither the Collateral Agent, any Secured Party nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any Grantor or any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof. The powers conferred on the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties hereunder are solely to protect the Collateral Agent’s and the Secured Parties’ interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party to exercise any such powers. The Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties shall be accountable only for amounts that they actually receive as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither they nor any of their officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

7.3 Execution of Financing Statements. Pursuant to any applicable law, each Grantor authorizes the Collateral Agent to file or record financing statements and other filing or recording documents or instruments with respect to the Collateral without the signature of such

Grantor in such form and in such offices as the Collateral Agent or any Lender determines appropriate to perfect the security interests of the Collateral Agent under this Agreement. Each Grantor authorizes the Collateral Agent to use the collateral description “all personal property” or “all assets” in any such financing statements.

7.4 Authority of Collateral Agent. Each Grantor acknowledges that the rights and responsibilities of the Collateral Agent under this Agreement with respect to any action taken by the Collateral Agent or the exercise or non-exercise by the Collateral Agent of any option, voting right, request, judgment or other right or remedy provided for herein or resulting or arising out of this Agreement shall, as between the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties, be governed by the Credit Agreement and by such other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from time to time among them, but, as between the Collateral Agent and the Grantors, the Collateral Agent shall be conclusively presumed to be acting as agent for the Secured Parties with full and valid authority so to act or refrain from acting, and no Grantor shall be under any obligation, or entitlement, to make any inquiry respecting such authority.

7.5 Collateral and Administrative Agent’s Duties. (a) Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association, in its capacity as Collateral Agent and Administrative Agent, agrees to take any actions or exercise any powers or remedies provided for it under this Agreement or the Loan Documents if so instructed by the requisite Lenders; provided, however, that the Agents shall not be required to take any action that exposes it to personal liability, requires it to advance or expend funds, or that is contrary to this Agreement, the Loan Documents or any Requirement of Law. The Lenders acknowledge that the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent will only be required to exercise its rights and remedies under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents upon the written direction of the requisite Lenders and that any permissive duty

contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall not be construed as an obligations imposed upon either the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent.

(b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Collateral Agent shall be afforded all of the rights, powers, immunities and indemnities of the Collateral Agent set forth in the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, as if such rights, powers, immunities and indemnities were specifically set forth herein. Each Grantor hereby acknowledges the appointment of the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Credit Agreement. The rights, privileges, protections and benefits given to the Collateral Agent, including their right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Collateral Agent in its capacity hereunder.

8.3 No Waiver by Course of Conduct; Cumulative Remedies.

No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial

exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver by the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Collateral Agent or such Secured Party would otherwise have on any future occasion.

8.4 Enforcement Expenses; Indemnification.

To the extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, FWH further irrevocably agrees to the service of process of any of the aforementioned courts in any suit, action or proceeding by the mailing of copies thereof by certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, to such party at the address referenced in Section 3.01, such service to be effective upon the date indicated on the postal receipt returned from FWH.
