Solely in connection with the payment of any obligation or the performance of any covenant, duty or obligation, if stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day or delivery of any notice, document, certificate or other writing is stated to be required on a day that is not a Business Day, the date of such payment, performance or delivery shall be extended to the immediately succeeding Business Day.

ARTICLE II

THE CREDITS

SECTION 2.1 Commitments.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including the Final Order, and relying upon the representations and warranties herein, each Lender severally, and not jointly, agrees on or after the Closing Date and during the Availability Period to make Loans to the Borrower in dollars in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed its Commitment; provided that in no event shall Loans be made hereunder on any date in excess of such Lender’s Commitment; provided further that the proceeds of all Loans made hereunder shall be used solely for the purposes set forth in Section 3.7. The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that the Initial DIP Loan shall for all purposes be deemed a Loan made hereunder pursuant to the Commitments of the Lenders.

(b) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and relying upon the representations and warranties herein, each Lender severally, and not jointly, agrees on or after the Closing Date and during the Availability Period to make loans to the Borrower (the “Expense Advances”) in dollars in such amounts as are necessary to fund Expense Payments that become due and owing during the Availability Period (the “Availability Period Expense Payments”). Anything to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) the Expense Advances shall be deemed Loans hereunder and shall bear interest, in each case commencing on the third Business Day following the Borrower's receipt of a reasonably detailed invoice from the Administrative Agent or a Lender even if the Lenders have not yet made the applicable Expense Advance hereunder; provided, however, the Expense Advances shall not be deemed to use any portion of the Commitments of the Lenders and (ii) the Borrower agrees to request a Borrowing to fund the Available Period Expense Payments promptly following its receipt of a reasonably detailed invoice in respect thereof; provided, however, that if the Borrower has failed to request any such Borrowing within five Business Days following the Borrower's receipt of the applicable invoice, the Lenders may make such Availability Period Expense Payments directly on behalf of the Borrower (rather than funding the proceeds of the applicable Expense Advance to the Borrower).

SECTION 2.2 Loans. Each Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their applicable Commitments; provided that the failure of any Lender to make any Loan shall not in itself relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, to extend additional Loans hereunder (it being understood, however, that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make any Loan required to be made by such other Lender). Each Borrowing of Loans (other than in respect of Expense Advances) shall be in an aggregate principal amount of at least $200,000 or, if less, the remaining available balance of the Commitments.

(a) Each Lender may at its option make any Loan by causing any Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of such Lender under Section 2.2(b) or of the Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(b) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account as the Administrative Agent may designate not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly credit the amounts so received to the account so designated by Borrower in the applicable Notice of Borrowing or, if a Borrowing shall not occur on such date because any condition precedent herein specified shall not have been met, return the amounts so received to the respective Lenders.

(c) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s portion of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with paragraph (b) above, and the Administrative Agent may, but shall have no obligation to, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If the Administrative Agent shall have so made funds available, then, to the extent that such Lender shall not have made such portion available to the Administrative Agent, each of such Lender and the Borrower, severally, agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at (i) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. Regardless of whether the Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement, and the Borrower’s obligation to repay the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount pursuant to this Section 2.2(c) shall cease.

SECTION 2.3 Borrowing Procedure. To request a Borrowing, the Borrower shall deliver, by hand delivery, telecopier or electronic “pdf”, a duly completed and executed Borrowing Request to the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, three (3) Business Day before the date of the proposed Borrowing (one (1) Business Day (1) in the case of a proposed Borrowing to make the Thermo Lenders Payment). Each Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.2:

(a) the aggregate amount of such Borrowing (which shall not be less than $200,000 or, if less, the remaining available balance of the Commitments);

(b) the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day;

(d) that the conditions set forth in Section 4.1 (with respect to the initial Borrowing hereunder) and Section 4.2 have been satisfied as of the date of the notice.

Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.

SECTION 2.4 Evidence of Debt; Repayment of Loans.

(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.8, the Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender, the unpaid principal amount of each Loan of such Lender in cash on the DIP Expiration Date. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.8, all payments or repayments of Loans made pursuant to this Section 2.4(a) shall be made in dollars.

(b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it will record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder; (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder; and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.

(d) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraphs (b) and (c) above shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations therein recorded; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligations of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with their terms. In the event of a conflict between records maintained by any Lender and the records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.

SECTION 2.5 Fees

(a) Commitment Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”) equal to 7% of the Commitment of such Lender. The Commitment Fee in respect of the Initial DIP Loan was fully earned by each Lender upon entry of the Interim Order. The Commitment Fee in respect of the remaining balance of the aggregate Commitments up to an aggregate of $10,500,000 of Commitments shall be fully earned by each Lender upon entry of the Final Order. Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary, the Commitment Fee payable with respect to the $2,000,000 portion of the Commitments of all Lenders in excess of $10,500,000 shall be fully earned only upon Borrower’s delivery of the Lightning Dock Certificate to the Administrative Agent. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.8, the Commitment Fees shall be payable in full, in cash on the DIP Expiration Date.

(b) Administrative Agent Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, the fees set forth in the Agent Fee Letter (the “Agent Fee”). All Agent Fees shall be payable to the Administrative Agent in full, in cash in accordance with the terms of the Agent Fee Letter.

(c) Due Dates. All Fees shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent. Once paid, none of the Fees shall be refundable under any circumstances.

SECTION 2.6 Interest on Loans and Commitment Fees.

(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.6(b), the Loans and the Commitment Fees shall bear interest at the Interest Rate.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all Obligations shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at the Default Rate.

(c) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.8, accrued interest on the Loans and the Commitment Fees shall be due and payable in arrears in full, in cash on the DIP Expiration Date; provided that after the DIP Expiration Date, interest accrued pursuant to Section 2.6(b) shall be due and payable from time to time in cash on demand.

(d) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, and in each case shall be calculated for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). Interest on the Loans and Commitment Fees shall compound monthly on each monthly anniversary of the date of such Loan or the date that such Commitment Fee was fully earned hereunder, as applicable.

SECTION 2.7 Termination and Reduction of Commitments

(a) The Commitments shall automatically terminate on the DIP Expiration Date.

(b) The Borrower may not terminate, or reduce, the Commitments.

SECTION 2.8 Plan Completion. If (a) the Obligations are satisfied in accordance with the terms of the Plan Support Agreement or otherwise to the satisfaction of the Lenders and (b) the Reorganization Plan becomes effective (the occurrence of all events described in clauses (a) and (b) being referred to herein as “Plan Completion”), then (i) all unpaid principal of the Loans; (ii) all accrued interest on the Loans and the Commitment Fees, (iii) all Commitment Fees and (iv) all amounts otherwise payable under Section 2.11, shall be deemed contributed to the capital of the Reorganized Xxxxx.

SECTION 2.9 No Optional Prepayments. The Borrower shall not have the right to make any repayment or prepayment of any principal, interest, fees or other amount thereunder.

SECTION 2.10 [Intentionally Omitted].

SECTION 2.11 Increased Costs.

(a) If any Change in Law shall:

(i)

impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against property of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender; or

(ii)

impose on any Lender, or any other condition affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender or any participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) If any Lender determines (in good faith, but in its sole absolute discretion) that any Change in Law regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) Provided that such demand is made prior to the Stated Maturity Date, failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation.

A certificate of a Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 2.11 shall be delivered to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) and shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.8, the Borrower shall pay such Lender, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof (or, if later, on the DIP Expiration Date); provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than six months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

(d) This Section 2.11 shall not require the Borrower to pay to a Lender additional amounts for costs incurred or reductions suffered in the form of:

(i) Excluded Taxes;

(ii) Indemnified Taxes to the extent that, pursuant to Section 2.14, either increased amounts are paid on account of such Taxes or such Taxes are indemnified for;

(iii) U.S. federal withholding tax imposed on a payment (i) to the Administrative Agent on behalf of a Lender that is not a Sponsor Lender, or (ii) to a Lender that is not a Sponsor Lender; or

(iv) Taxes imposed by Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code (“FATCA”) on a Lender, or on a payment to or on behalf of a Lender, that is not a Sponsor Lender. For the avoidance of doubt, Section 2.11(d) will not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to pay additional amounts for Taxes, if any, imposed by FATCA on a Sponsor Lender, or Taxes, if any, imposed by FATCA on a payment made to or on behalf of a Sponsor Lender in a case where a direct or indirect investor in such Sponsor Lender is the beneficial owner of such payment.

SECTION 2.12 [Intentionally Omitted].

SECTION 2.13 Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set Off.

(a) The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document (whether of principal, interest, fees or of amounts payable under Section 2.11 or 2.14, or otherwise) on or before the time expressly required hereunder or under such other Loan Document for such payment (or, if no such time is expressly required, prior to 12:00 Noon, New York City time), on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without setoff, deduction or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments to be made hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent at such address as the Administrative Agent may instruct the Borrower from time to time, except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.11, 2.14 and 11.3 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto and payments pursuant to other Loan Documents shall be made to the Persons specified therein. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment under any Loan Document shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, unless specified otherwise, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments under each Loan Document shall be made in dollars and in immediately available funds.

(b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (subject to the priorities set forth in Section 9.1 in the case of proceeds received by the Administrative Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from or realization upon all or any part of the Collateral pursuant to the exercise by the Administrative Agent of its remedies) (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal then due to such parties.

(c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee, other than to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. If under applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or any similar law any Lender receives a secured claim in lieu of a setoff or counterclaim to which this Section 2.13(c) applies, such Lender shall to the extent practicable, exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights to which the Lender is entitled under this Section 2.13(c) to share in the benefits of the recovery of such secured claim.

(d) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it hereunder, then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

SECTION 2.14 Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower or the Guarantors hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made without setoff, counterclaim or other defense and free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any and all Indemnified Taxes except as required by applicable law. If the Borrower or the Guarantors shall be required by law to deduct any Indemnified Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all such required deductions on account of such Indemnified Taxes (including deductions or withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.14) the Administrative Agent or any Lender (or their respective assignees), as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions or withholdings and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Section 2.14(a) shall not require the Borrower or a Guarantor to pay an increased amount with respect to Taxes imposed on a payment (i) to the Administrative Agent on behalf of a Lender that is not a Sponsor Lender, or (ii) to a Lender that is not a Sponsor Lender.

(b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender (and their respective assignees), within ten (10) Business Days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender (or their respective assignees), as the case may be and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate accompanied by reasonable detail as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by any Lender, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of any Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(c) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, within ten (10) Business Days after payment thereof, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent or Lender, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower or Guarantor hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.14 and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto), whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate accompanied by reasonable detail as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by any Lender, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of any Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Section 2.14(c) shall not require the Borrower or a Guarantor to pay any indemnity with respect to Taxes imposed on a payment (i) to the Administrative Agent on behalf of a Lender that is not a Sponsor Lender, or (ii) to a Lender that is not a Sponsor Lender.

(d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes and in any event within thirty (30) days of any such payment being due, by the Borrower or Guarantor to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower or Guarantor shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Each Foreign Lender, on or before the date it becomes a Foreign Lender, shall to the extent it is legally permitted to do so (i) furnish two completed and executed copies of either (a) U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (or successor form), (b) U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (or successor form), certifying, in the case of (a) or (b), to such Foreign Lender’s legal entitlement to an exemption or reduction from U.S. federal withholding tax with respect to payments of interest hereunder, or (c), to the extent it does not act or ceases to act for its own account with respect to any portion of any sums paid or payable to such Foreign Lender, U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or any successor forms), together with information, if any, such party chooses to transmit with such form, and any other certificate or statement of exemption required under the Code or the regulations issued thereunder, to establish that such party is not acting for its own account with respect to a portion of any such sums payable to such party, and (ii) to the extent it is legally permitted do so at such times, upon reasonable request by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, provide a new Form W8BEN (or successor form), Form W-8ECI (or successor form) or Form W-8IMY (or successor form) upon the expiration or obsolescence of any previously delivered form to confirm any complete exemption from, or any entitlement to a reduction in, U.S. federal withholding tax with respect to any payments of interest hereunder, or to establish that such party is not acting for its own account with respect to a portion of any such sums payable to such party; provided that any Foreign Lender that is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 88 1(c)(3)(A) of the Code that is relying on the “portfolio interest exception” under Section 881(c) of the Code shall also furnish a “Non-Bank Certificate” in customary form if it is furnishing a Form W-8BEN.

(f) Any Administrative Agent or Lender that is not a Foreign Lender and is not an exempt recipient (as defined in Section 6049(b)(4) of the Code and the regulations issued thereunder) shall, to the extent legally permitted to do so, deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), on or prior to the date it become a party hereto, and upon reasonable request by the Borrower, two U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any successor forms) properly completed and duly executed by such party.

(g) If the Administrative Agent or a Lender (or an assignee) determines in its reasonable discretion that it has received a refund of any Indemnified 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 2.14, it shall 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 2.14 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or the Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender (or assignee) and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, however, that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender (or assignee), agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender (or assignee) within a reasonable time (not to exceed twenty (20) days) after receipt of written notice that the Administrative Agent or such Lender (or assignee) is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Nothing contained in this Section 2.14(g) shall require the Administrative Agent or any Lender (or assignee) to make available its Tax Returns or any other information which it deems confidential to the Borrower or any other Person. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in no event will any Lender be required to pay any amount to the Borrower the payment of which would place such Lender in a less favorable net after-tax position than such Lender would have been in if the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund had never been paid in the first instance. Additionally, this Section 2.14(g) shall not apply if the Administrative Agent or Lender has determined that its actual or probable administrative efforts or other resources or costs involved in making the necessary determinations are disproportionate to the amount otherwise payable by it under this Section 2.14(g).

(h) If the Borrower or the Guarantors shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower or the Guarantors hereunder or under any other Loan Document, such deduction and any payment required in connection with that deduction shall be made within the time allowed and in the minimum amount required by law.

(i) No Lender shall be obligated to disclose to any Borrower or Guarantor or any other person any information regarding its tax affairs or tax computations, nor shall anything in this Agreement interfere with the right of any Lender to arrange its tax affairs in whatsoever manner it thinks fit and, in particular, no Lender shall be under any obligation to claim relief from its corporate profits or similar tax liability by utilizing credits or deductions available to it (and, if it does so claim, the extent, order and manner in which it does so shall be in its absolute discretion).

SECTION 2.15 Payment of Obligations. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.8, upon the DIP Expiration Date, the Lenders shall be entitled to immediate payment of all Obligations then due and owing without further application to or order of the Bankruptcy Court, subject to the terms of the Loan Documents and the Final Order.

SECTION 2.16 No Discharge; Survival of Claims. Each Debtor agrees that (a) the Obligations hereunder shall not be discharged by the entry of an order confirming a Reorganization Plan in the Chapter 11 Cases (and each Debtor pursuant to section 1141(d)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code hereby waives any such discharge) and (b) the superpriority administrative expense claim granted to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders pursuant to the Final Order and the Liens granted to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Final Order shall not be affected in any manner by the entry of an order confirming a Reorganization Plan in the Chapter 11 Cases.

SECTION 2.17 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.11, or the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender, or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.14, then such Lender shall, as applicable, use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Sections 2.11 or 2.14, as the case may be, in the future, and (ii) in each case, would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) Replacement of Lenders. Subject to the last sentence of this Section 2.17(b), if any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.11, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.14, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse, all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:

(i)

such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, Commitment Fees, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);

(ii)

in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.11 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.14, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and

(iii)

such assignment does not conflict with applicable laws.

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. Anything to the contrary notwithstanding, this Section 2.17(b) shall not apply to any Sponsor Lender (i.e., the Borrower shall not have the right to replace any Sponsor Lender under this Section 2.17(b)).

ARTICLE III

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

Each Debtor represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders that:

SECTION 3.1 Organization; Powers. Each Debtor (a) is duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, (b) has all requisite power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted and, upon the entry of the Final Order by the Bankruptcy Court, has all requisite power and authority to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and to perform its obligations under or with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (c) is qualified and in good standing to do business in every jurisdiction where such qualification is required, except in such jurisdictions where the failure to so qualify or be in good standing, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

SECTION 3.2 Authorization; Enforceability.

The aggregate liabilities of each Debtor or its ERISA Affiliates to all Multiemployer Plans in the event of a complete withdrawal therefrom, as of the close of the most recent fiscal year of each such Multiemployer Plan, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

All insurance maintained by the Debtors is in full force and effect, all premiums have been duly paid and no Debtor has received notice of violation or cancellation thereof except, in such case, where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Collateral, and the use, occupancy and/or operation thereof, as applicable comply in all respects with all Insurance Requirements, and there exists no default under any material Insurance Requirement, in each case to the extent the same could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

then, and in every such event, and at any time thereafter during the continuance of such event, the Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the Required Lenders shall, notwithstanding the provisions of section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code, without any application, motion or notice to, hearing before, or order from the Bankruptcy Court (but subject to any applicable provisions of the Loan Documents and the Final Order) by not less than five (5) Business Days’ (or, in the case of any such event described in Section 8.1(n)(ii), seven (7) Business Days’) prior written notice to the Borrower, the Committee and the United States Trustee for the District of Delaware, take any or all of the following actions, at the same or different times:

(A)

suspend the Commitments with respect to additional Loans (including the obligation to make the Expense Advances), whereupon any additional Loans shall be made or incurred in the Lenders’ sole discretion so long as such Event of Default is continuing;

(B)

declare the Commitments (including the obligation to make the Expense Advances) to be terminated forthwith, whereupon the Commitments and such obligations shall immediately terminate;

(C)

increase the rate of interest applicable to the Loans and the Commitment Fees to the interest rate specified in Section 2.6(c);

provided that notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to the contrary, upon receipt of such five (5) Business Days’ (or seven (7) Business Days’, as applicable) prior written notice, the Borrower may continue to make ordinary course disbursements from its Deposit Accounts to the extent and at the times set forth in the 13-Week Budget, but may not withdraw or disburse any other amounts from such account (in any hearing after the giving effect of the aforementioned notice, the only issue that may be raised by any party in opposition thereto being whether, in fact, an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing).

Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and the exercise by the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, of their rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the Debtors shall use commercially reasonably efforts to assist the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in effecting a sale or other disposition of the Collateral upon such terms as are reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders.

ARTICLE IX

APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS

SECTION 9.1 Application of Proceeds. The proceeds received by the Administrative Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral pursuant to the exercise by the Administrative Agent of its remedies following the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default shall be applied, in full or in part, together with any other sums then held by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement, promptly by the Administrative Agent as follows:

(a) First, to the payment of all reasonable costs and expenses, fees, commissions and taxes of such sale, collection or other realization, and all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs, expenses, and advances made or incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection therewith and all amounts for which the Administrative Agent is entitled to indemnification pursuant to the provisions of any Loan Document, together with interest on each such amount at the highest rate then in effect under this Agreement from and after the date such amount is due, owing or unpaid until paid in full;

(b) Second, to the payment of all other reasonable costs and expenses of such sale, collection or other realization including all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs, expenses, and advances made or incurred by the other Secured Parties in connection therewith, together with interest on each such amount at the highest rate then in effect under this Agreement from and after the date such amount is due, owing or unpaid until paid in full;

(c) Third, without duplication of amounts applied pursuant to clauses (a) and (b) above to the payment in full in cash, pro rata, of interest and other amounts constituting Obligations (other than principal), in each case equally and ratably in accordance with the respective amounts thereof then due and owing;

(d) Fourth, to the payment in full in cash, pro rata, of principal amount of the Obligations; and

(e) Fifth, the balance, if any, to the Person lawfully entitled thereto (including the applicable Debtor or its successors or assigns) or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

In the event that any such proceeds are insufficient to pay in full the items described in clauses (a) through (e) of this Section 9.1, the Debtors shall remain liable for any deficiency.

ARTICLE X

AGENCY

SECTION 10.1 Appointment and Authority. Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints Wilmington Trust FSB to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto (including, without limitation, the execution and delivery from time to time of documentation contemplated by or in connection with Article XIII and/or the Collateral). The provisions of this Article X are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and neither the Borrower nor any other Debtor shall have rights as a third-party beneficiary of any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

SECTION 10.2 Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Borrower or any other Debtor or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

SECTION 10.3 Exculpatory Provisions.

(a) The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:

(i)

shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;

(ii)

shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to this Agreement or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law; and

(iii)

shall not, except as expressly set forth herein, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents) or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances, or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to the Administrative Agent in writing by the Borrower or a Lender.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any conditions in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 10.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of any Loan that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

SECTION 10.5 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder by or through any one or more sub agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article X and the indemnification provisions of the Indemnification Provision and this Agreement shall apply to any such sub agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non appealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub agents.

SECTION 10.6 Resignation of Administrative Agent.

(a) The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in New York, New York. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.

(b) The Required Lenders may, by at least 45 days notice in writing to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, remove the Person then serving as Administrative Agent and, in consultation with the Borrower, appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.

(c) With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable) (1) the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Administrative Agent, and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article X and Section 11.3 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative Agent, its sub agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

SECTION 10.7 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

SECTION 10.8 Collateral Matters. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Administrative Agent’s lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by any Debtor in connection therewith, nor shall the Administrative Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral.

SECTION 10.9 Register. The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the principal amount of the Loans owing to each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Guarantors, the Administrative Agent, and the Lenders shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. Upon its receipt of an assignment agreement duly completed and executed pursuant to Section 11.4(b), the Administrative Agent shall accept such assignment agreement and record the information contained therein in the Register. Without limitation of any provision in Section 11.4, no transfer or assignment shall be effective until recorded in the Register.

SECTION 11.2 Waivers; Amendment.

(a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and each Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Debtor therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.

(b) Neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended, supplemented or modified except, in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Required Lenders or, in the case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent, and the Debtor or Debtors that are party thereto, in each case with the written consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall:

(i)

increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender;

(ii)

reduce the principal amount or premium of any Loan or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any Fees payable hereunder, or change the currency of payment of any Obligation, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby;

(iii)

postpone or extend the maturity of any Loan, or any date for the payment of any interest or fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby;

(iv)

change Section 2.14(b) or (c) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments or setoffs required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender; or

(v)

change the percentage set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision of any Loan Document (including this Section) specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights thereunder or make any determination or grant any consent thereunder, without the written consent of each Lender;

(vi)

release all or substantially all of the Collateral from the Liens under the Final Order or the Security Documents or alter the relative priorities of the Obligations entitled to the Liens under the Final Order or the Security Documents (except in connection with securing additional Obligations equally and ratably with the other Obligations), in each case without the written consent of each Lender; or

(vii)

release any Debtor from its Guarantee or limit its liability in respect of such Guarantee, without the written consent of each Lender;

provided, further, that (1) no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and (2) no such agreement shall increase the aggregate amount of Commitments (or increase the principal amount of outstanding Loans) without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders.

SECTION 11.3 Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.

(a) Costs and Expenses. The Debtors, jointly and severally agree, to pay (i) all reasonable and documented out of pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and their respective Affiliates (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent), in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable and documented out of pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender (including reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent, any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, including all such out of pocket expenses incurred during any restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans; and (iii) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of Advisors for the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, in connection with any action, suit or other proceeding affecting the Collateral or any part thereof, in which action, suit or proceeding the Administrative Agent is made a party or participates or in which the right to use the Collateral or any part thereof is threatened, or in which it becomes necessary in the reasonable judgment of the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders to defend or uphold the Liens granted pursuant to the Final Order or by the Security Documents (including any action, suit or proceeding to establish or uphold the compliance of the Collateral with any Requirements of Law).

(b) Indemnification by the Borrower. The Debtors agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities (other than any Taxes) and related expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee) incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any Person (including the Borrower or any other Debtor) other than such Indemnitee and its Related Parties arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any Loan or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom, (iii) any actual or alleged presence or Release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Claim related in any way to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Borrower or any other Debtor, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) result from a claim brought by the Borrower or any other Debtor against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee's obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if the Borrower or such Debtor has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.

(c) Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that the Debtors for any reason fail to indefeasibly pay any amount required under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought of such unpaid amount). For purposes hereof, a Lender’s “pro rata share” shall be determined based upon its share of the sum of the outstanding Loans and unused Commitments at the time.

(d) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no Debtor shall assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, 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 other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan, or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to in paragraph (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

(e) Payments. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than three (3) days after demand therefor.

SECTION 11.4 Successors and Assigns.

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that no Debtor may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by any Debtor without such consent shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the other Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) Subject to Section 11.4(c), any Lender shall have the right at any time to assign or grant participations to other financial institutions in all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it) and the other Loan Documents with prior written consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that the consent of the Borrower shall not be required (i) in the case of any such assignment to an Affiliate of such Lender or (ii) during the continuance of any Event of Default, provided further that any such assignment or participation shall be in compliance with the applicable federal and state securities laws; and provided, further, that any assignee or transferee agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement pursuant to an assignment agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Upon the effective date of any assignment agreement executed pursuant to this Section 11.4(b) and payment of an administrative fee to the Administrative Agent for processing such assignment in the amount of $3,500 (except in the case of an assignment by a Lender to an Affiliate of such Lender in which case payment of such administrative fee shall not be required), (x) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such assignment agreement, shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and (z) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such assignment agreement, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (and, in the case of an assignment agreement covering all of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto).

(c) If any Lender desires to sell, assign or transfer or grant participations to any Person that is not an Affiliate of such Lender (“Transfer”) in any portion of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or any part thereof (the “Offered Interest”) it must comply with the terms of this Section 11.4(c). No Lender may Transfer an Offered Interest, unless (a) a bona fide offer (the “Purchase Offer”) has been received from a third party (the “Purchaser”) to purchase the Offered Interest for a purchase price (the “Offer Price”) denominated and payable in U.S. dollars; and (b) such proposed transferring Lender (the “Selling Party”) shall give the other Lenders (the “Purchasing Parties”) written notice (the “Offer Notice”) which shall include a copy of the Purchase Offer and an offer (the “Firm Offer”) to sell the Offered Interest to the Purchasing Parties according to the same terms as (or more favorable terms to the Purchasing Parties than) those contained in the Purchase Offer in accordance with this Section 11.4(c). Within fifteen (15) days following its receipt of the Offer Notice (the “Offer Period”), each Purchasing Party may elect to purchase or otherwise acquire, at the price and on the terms specified in the Offer Notice, up to that portion of such Offered Interest which equals the proportion of the outstanding Loans and unused Commitments at the time held by the Purchasing Parties. Failure of a Purchasing Party to respond to the Offer Notice during the Offer Period shall be deemed an election to not acquire any portion of the Offered Interest. At the expiration of the Offered Period, the Selling Party shall promptly notify each Purchasing Party that elects to purchase or acquire all Offered Interest available to it (each, a “Fully Exercising Lender”) of any other Purchasing Parties failure to do likewise. During the ten (10) day period commencing after the Selling Party has given such notice, each Fully Exercising Lender may, by giving notice to the Selling Party, elect to purchase or acquire, in addition to the Offered Interest specified above, up to that portion of the Offered Interest for which Purchasing Parties were entitled to subscribe but that were not subscribed for by the Purchasing Parties which is equal to the proportion that the outstanding Loans and unused Commitments then held, by such Fully Exercising Lender bears to the outstanding Loans and unused Commitments then held, by all Fully Exercising Lenders who wish to purchase such unsubscribed shares. If the Purchasing Parties do not elect to purchase the entire Offered Interest, then the Selling Party may Transfer the Offered Interest to the Purchaser according to the terms of the Purchase Offer (or terms more favorable to the Selling Party than those contained in the Purchase Offer). If the Offered Interest is not sold to the Purchaser on the terms and conditions and the closing date specified in the Purchase Offer, such Offered Interest shall again become subject to, and may not be sold except after compliance with, this Section 11.4(c).

SECTION 11.5 Survival of Agreement. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Debtor in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.11, 2.14 and 11.3 and Article X shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

SECTION 11.6 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement amends and restates in it entirely that certain Interim Lending Agreement dated May 3, 2011 by and among the Borrower, Guarantors, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopier shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

SECTION 11.7 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 11.8 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates are hereby authorized (notwithstanding the provisions of section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code, without any application, motion to, hearing before, or order from, the Bankruptcy Court) but subject in all cases to the provisions of the Final Order and the giving of not less than five (5) Business Days’ (or, in the case of any Event of Default arising under in Section 8.1(n)(ii), seven (7) Business Days’) prior written notice to the Borrower, the Committee and the United States Trustee for the District of Delaware, at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Debtor against any and all of the obligations of any Debtor now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.

ARTICLE XII

GUARANTEE

SECTION 12.1 The Guarantee. The Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally guarantee, as a primary obligor and not as a surety to each Secured Party and their respective successors and assigns, the prompt payment in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, demand, by acceleration or otherwise) of the principal of and interest (including any interest, fees, costs or charges that would accrue but for the provisions of the Title 11 of the United States Code after any bankruptcy or insolvency petition under Title 11 of the United States Code) on the Loans made by the Lenders to the Borrower, and all other Obligations from time to time owing to the Secured Parties by any Debtor under any Loan Document in each case strictly in accordance with the terms thereof (such obligations being herein collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”). The Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, agree that if the Borrower or other Guarantors shall fail to pay in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the Guarantors will promptly pay the same in cash, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal.

SECTION 12.2 Obligations Unconditional. The obligations of the Guarantors under Section 12.1 shall constitute a guaranty of payment and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, are absolute, irrevocable and unconditional, joint and several, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement, or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or any substitution, release or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or Guarantor (except for payment in full). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of the Guarantors hereunder which shall remain absolute, irrevocable and unconditional under any and all circumstances as described above:

at any time or from time to time, without notice to the Guarantors, the time for any performance of or compliance with any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived;

(ii)

any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be done or omitted;

(iv)

any Lien or security interest granted to, or in favor of, any Lender or the Administrative Agent as security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall fail to be perfected; or

(v)

the release of any other Guarantor.

To the extent permitted by law, the Guarantors hereby expressly waive diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that any Secured Party exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against the Borrower under this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or against any other person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Guaranteed Obligations. To the extent permitted by law, the Guarantors waive any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension, waiver, termination or accrual of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by any Secured Party upon this Guarantee or acceptance of this Guarantee, and the Guaranteed Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred in reliance upon this Guarantee, and all dealings between the Borrower and the Secured Parties shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this Guarantee. This Guarantee shall be construed as a continuing, absolute, irrevocable and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to any right of offset with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations at any time or from time to time held by the Secured Parties, and the obligations and liabilities of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be conditioned or contingent upon the pursuit by the Secured Parties or any other person at any time of any right or remedy against Borrower or against any other person which may be or become liable in respect of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or against any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto. This Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in accordance with and to the extent of its terms upon the Guarantors and the successors and assigns thereof, and shall inure to the benefit of the Lenders, and their respective successors and assigns, notwithstanding that from time to time during the term of this Agreement there may be no Guaranteed Obligations outstanding.

SECTION 12.3 Reinstatement. The obligations of the Guarantors under this Article XII shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower or any other Debtor in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise.

SECTION 12.4 Subrogation; Subordination. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that until the payment and satisfaction in full in cash of all Guaranteed Obligations and the expiration and termination of the Commitments of the Lenders under this Agreement it shall not exercise any right or remedy, direct or indirect, arising by reason of any performance by it of its guarantee in Section 12.1, whether by subrogation or otherwise, against the Borrower or any other Guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations.

SECTION 12.5 Remedies. The Guarantors jointly and severally agree that, subject to the terms of the Final Order, as between the Guarantors and the Lenders, the obligations of Borrower under this Agreement, if any, may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Article VIII (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in said Article VIII) for purposes of Section 12.1, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against the Borrower and that, in the event of such declaration (or such obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), such obligations (whether or not due and payable by the Borrower) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for purposes of Section 12.1.

SECTION 12.6 Instrument for the Payment of Money. Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges that the guarantee in this Article XII constitutes an instrument for the payment of money, and consents and agrees that any Lender or the Administrative Agent, at its sole option, in the event of a dispute by such Guarantor in the payment of any moneys due hereunder, shall have the right to bring a motion-action under New York CPLR Section 3213 to the extent permitted thereunder.

SECTION 12.7 Continuing Guarantee. The guarantee in this Article XII is a continuing guarantee of payment, and shall apply to all Guaranteed Obligations whenever arising.

SECTION 12.8 General Limitation on Guarantee Obligations. In any action or proceeding involving any state corporate limited partnership or limited liability company law, or any applicable state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Guarantor under Section 12.1 would otherwise be held or determined to be void, voidable, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims of any other creditors, on account of the amount of its liability under Section 12.1, then, notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by such Guarantor, any Debtor or any other Person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable and not subordinated to the claims of other creditors as determined in such action or proceeding.

it being understood that each Debtor’s obligation to deliver the Collateral as described above is of the essence of this Agreement and that, accordingly, upon application to a court of equity having jurisdiction, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to a decree requiring specific performance by the relevant Debtor of said obligation.

SECTION 13.3 Remedies; Disposition of the Collateral. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, then any Collateral repossessed by the Administrative Agent under or pursuant to Section 13.2 and any other Collateral whether or not so repossessed by the Administrative Agent, may be sold, assigned, leased or otherwise disposed of under one or more contracts or as an entirety, and without the necessity of gathering at the place of sale the property to be sold, and in general in such manner, at such time or times, at such place or places and on such terms as the Administrative Agent may, in compliance with any mandatory requirements of applicable law, determine to be commercially reasonable. Any of the Collateral may be sold, leased or otherwise disposed of in the condition in which the same existed when taken by the Administrative Agent or after any overhaul or repair (which shall be at the joint and several expense of the Debtors) which the Administrative Agent or Required Lenders shall determine to be commercially reasonable. Any such sale, lease or other disposition may be effected by means of a public disposition or private disposition, effected in accordance with the applicable requirements (in each case if and to the extent applicable) of Sections 9-610 through 9-613 of the UCC and/or such other mandatory requirements of applicable law as may apply to the respective disposition. The Administrative Agent may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private disposition or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for the disposition, and such disposition may be made at any time or place to which the disposition may be so adjourned. To the extent permitted by any such requirement of law, the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders may bid for and become the purchaser (and may pay all or any portion of the purchase price by crediting Obligations against the purchase price) of the Collateral or any item thereof, offered for disposition in accordance with this Section 13.3 without accountability to each Debtor. If, under applicable law, the Lenders shall be permitted to make disposition of the Collateral within a period of time which does not permit the giving of notice to each Debtor as hereinabove specified, the Administrative Agent need give the Debtors only such notice of disposition as shall be required by such applicable law. Each Debtor agrees to do or cause to be done all such other acts and things as may be reasonably necessary to make such disposition or dispositions of all or any portion of the Collateral valid and binding and in compliance with any and all applicable laws, regulations, orders, writs, injunctions, decrees or awards of any and all courts, arbitrators or governmental instrumentalities, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over any such sale or sales, all at the Debtors’ joint and several expense. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall give not less than five (5) Business Days’ (or, in the case of any such sale, lease or other disposition as a result of any Event of Default described in Section 8.1(n)(ii), seven (7) Business Days’) prior written notice to the Borrower, the Committee and the United States Trustee for the District of Delaware, of any sale, lease or other disposition of Collateral.

SECTION 13.4 Waiver of Claims. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each Debtor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, notice and judicial hearing in connection with the Administrative Agent taking possession or the Administrative Agent's disposition of any of the Collateral, including, without limitation, any and all prior notice and hearing for any prejudgment remedy or remedies, and each Debtor hereby further waives, to the extent permitted by law:

(i)

all damages occasioned by such taking of possession or any such disposition except any damages which are the direct result of the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct;

(ii)

all other requirements as to the time, place and terms of sale or other requirements with respect to the enforcement of the Administrative Agent’s rights hereunder; and

(iii)

all rights of redemption, appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or moratorium now or hereafter in force under any applicable law in order to prevent or delay the enforcement of this Agreement or the absolute sale of the Collateral or any portion thereof, and each Debtor, for itself and all who may claim under it, insofar as it or they now or hereafter lawfully may, hereby waives the benefit of all such laws.

Any sale of, or the grant of options to purchase, or any other realization upon, any Collateral pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall operate to divest all right, title, interest, claim and demand, either at law or in equity, of each Debtor therein and thereto, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against each Debtor and against any and all Persons claiming or attempting to claim the Collateral so sold, optioned or realized upon, or any part thereof, from, through and under each Debtor. Application of Proceeds.

SECTION 13.5 Application of Proceeds. The Administrative Agent shall apply the proceeds of any collection or sale of Collateral, as well as any Collateral consisting of cash, to the Obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. It is understood that each Debtor shall remain liable to the extent of any deficiency between the amount of the proceeds of the Collateral and the aggregate amount of the Obligations.

SECTION 13.6 Duty of Care. The Administrative Agent shall exercise ordinary care in the storage or use of any Collateral in its possession. The Administrative Agent shall not have any other duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or nominee of the Administrative Agent, or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto.

SECTION 13.7 License. For the sole purpose of enabling the Administrative Agent to exercise rights and remedies under this Agreement (including, without limitation, in order to take possession of, hold, preserve, process, assemble, prepare for sale, market for sale, sell or otherwise dispose of Collateral) at such time as the Administrative Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, to the extent of each Debtor’s legal and contractual rights to make such grant, each Debtor hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, an irrevocable, nonexclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to any Debtor) to use, license or sublicense any Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter acquired by such Debtor, and wherever the same may be located, and including in such license access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer software and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof.

SECTION 13.8 Further Acts. Each Debtor will, at its own expense and upon the reasonable request of the Administrative Agent, make, execute, endorse, acknowledge, file and/or deliver to the Lenders from time to time such lists, descriptions and designations of its Collateral, warehouse receipts, receipts in the nature of warehouse receipts, bills of lading, documents of title, vouchers, invoices, schedules, confirmatory assignments, conveyances, financing statements, transfer endorsements, certificates, reports and other assurances or instruments, execute and cause to be executed such control agreements, make intellectual property filings, and take such further steps relating to the Collateral and other property or rights covered by the security interest hereby granted, which the Administrative Agent deem reasonably necessary or desirable to perfect, preserve or protect its security interest in the Collateral or the priority thereof.

SECTION 13.9 Right to Cure. The Administrative Agent or the Lenders may, in their sole and absolute discretion, pay any amount or do any act required of any Debtor hereunder in order to preserve, protect, maintain or enforce the Obligations, the Collateral or the Administrative Agent’s Liens therein, and which any Debtor fails to pay or do, including payment of any judgment against a Debtor, any insurance premium, any warehouse charge, any finishing or processing charge, any landlord’s or bailee’s claim, and any other Lien upon or with respect to the Collateral; provided, however, that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be under any obligation to take any such action. Any payment made or other action taken by the Administrative Agent or any Lender under this Section shall be without prejudice to any right to assert an Event of Default hereunder and to proceed thereafter as herein provided.

SECTION 13.10 Filings. The Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to file such financing statements with respect to this Agreement, with or without any Debtor’s signature, or to file a photocopy of this Agreement in substitution for a financing statement, as any Lender may deem appropriate and to execute in the relevant Debtor’s name such financing statements and amendments thereto and continuation statements which may require the Debtor’s signature.

SECTION 13.11 Debtors Remain Liable. It is expressly agreed by each Debtor that, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Debtor shall remain liable under each of its contracts and each of its licenses to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of the Lenders shall have any obligation or liability under any contract or license by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the granting herein of a Lien thereon or the receipt by the Administrative Agent or any Lender of any payment relating to any contract or license pursuant hereto. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of the Lenders shall be required or obligated in any manner to perform or fulfill any of the obligations of any Debtor under or pursuant to any contract or license, or to make any payment, or to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by it or the sufficiency of any performance by any party under any contract or license, or to present or file any claims, or to take any action to collect or enforce any performance or the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times.

SECTION 13.12 Power of Attorney. Each Debtor hereby constitutes and appoints the Administrative Agent its true and lawful attorney, acting singly, with full power (in the name of each Debtor or otherwise), upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to act, require, demand, receive, compound and give acquittance for any and all monies and claims for monies due or to become due to each Debtor under or arising out of the Collateral, to endorse any checks or other instruments or orders in connection therewith and to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings which the Administrative Agent may deem to be necessary or advisable to protect the interests of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, which appointment as attorney is irrevocable and coupled with an interest. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, at any time after the occurrence of an Event of Default, any Lender is hereby authorized and empowered, acting singly, to:

(a) to endorse the relevant Debtor’s name on any checks, notes, acceptances, money orders, or other forms of payment or security that come into the Administrative Agent’s possession;

(b) to sign the relevant Debtor’s name on any invoice, xxxx of lading, warehouse receipt or other negotiable or non-negotiable Document constituting Collateral, on drafts against customers, on assignments of Accounts, on notices of assignment, financing statements and other public records and to file any such financing statements by electronic means with or without a signature as authorized or required by applicable law or filing procedure;

(c) to notify the post office authorities to change the address for delivery of each Debtor’s mail to an address designated by the Administrative Agent and to receive, open and dispose of all mail addressed to such Debtor;

(d) to send requests for verification of Accounts to customers;

(e) to complete in the relevant Debtor’s name or the Administrative Agent’s name, any order, sale or transaction, obtain the necessary Documents in connection therewith, and collect the proceeds thereof;

(f) to do all things necessary to carry out this Agreement.

Each Debtor ratifies and approves all acts of such attorney done in accordance with the power set forth herein. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders nor any of their attorneys or agents will be liable for any acts or omissions or for any error of judgment or mistake of fact or law except for their own willful misconduct. This power, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable until the Obligations have been fully satisfied.
