Except as provided in Section 2.9, if any Lender shall obtain any payment or other recovery (whether voluntary, involuntary, by application of offset or otherwise), on account of (a) principal of or interest on any Loan (but excluding (i) any payment pursuant to Section 4.2 or 19.1 and (ii) payments of interest on any Affected Loan) or (b) its participation in any Letter of Credit in excess of its applicable Pro Rata Share of payments and other recoveries obtained by all Lenders on account of principal of and interest on the Loans (or such participation) then held by them, then such Lender shall purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Loans (or sub- participations in Letters of Credit) held by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment or other recovery ratably with each of them; provided that if all or any portion of the excess payment or other recovery is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, the purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery.

2.7. Notes.

The Loans shall, in each Lender’s sole discretion, be evidenced by one or more promissory notes in form and substance satisfactory to such Lender (each a “Note” and collectively, the “Notes”. However, if such Loans are not so evidenced, such Loans may be evidenced solely by entries upon the books and records maintained by Administrative Agent.

2.8. Recordkeeping.

Administrative Agent shall record in its records, the date and amount of each Loan made by Lenders, each repayment or conversion thereof and, in the case of each LIBOR Loan, the dates on which each Interest Period for such Loan shall begin and end. The aggregate unpaid principal amount so recorded shall be rebuttably presumptive evidence of the principal amount of the Loans owing and unpaid. The failure to so record any such amount or any error in so recording any such amount shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the Obligations of Borrower hereunder or under any Note to repay the principal amount of the Loans hereunder, together with all interest accruing thereon.

2.9. Defaulting Lenders.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

2.9.1. fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Revolving Loan Commitment or Contract Draw Loan Commitment, as applicable, of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 4.3;

2.9.2. if any Swing Line Loans, Agent Advances or Letters of Credit are outstanding at the time a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:

(a) all or any part of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to participate in Swing Line Loans, Agent Advances and participate in Letters of Credit shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares as determined pursuant to clause (a) of the definition of “Pro Rata Share” but only to the extent (x) the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Loans or Contract Draw Loans, as applicable, and participations in Letter of Credit Obligations, Swing Line Loans and Agent Advances, plus such Defaulting Lender’s obligation to participate in Swing Line Loans, Agent Advances and participate in Letters of Credit does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Loan Commitments or Contract Draw Loan Commitments, as applicable, and (y) the conditions set forth in Section 16.2 are satisfied at such time; and

(b) if the reallocation described in clause (a) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, Borrower shall within one Business Day following notice by Administrative Agent (x) first, prepay such Defaulting Lender’s obligation to participate in Swing Line Loans and Agent Advances and (y) second, Cash Collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s obligation to participate in Letters of Credit (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (a) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 3.4 for so long as such obligation to participate in Letters of Credit is outstanding;

(c) if Borrower Cash Collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s obligation to participate in Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 3.4, Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 3.1 with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s obligation to participate in Letters of Credit during the period such Defaulting Lender’s obligation to participate in Letters of Credit is Cash Collateralized;

(d) if the obligation to participate in Letters of Credit of the non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to Section 2.9.2, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 4.3 shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Pro Rata Shares (as determined pursuant to clause (a) of the definition of “Pro Rata Share”); or

(e) if any Defaulting Lender’s obligation to participate in Letters of Credit is neither Cash Collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to Section 2.9.2, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of any L/C Issuer or any Lender hereunder, all letter of credit fees payable under Section 3.1 with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s obligation to participate in Letters of Credit shall be payable to the applicable L/C Issuer until such obligation to participate in Letters of Credit is cash collateralized and/or reallocated; and

2.9.3. so long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Swing Line Lender shall not be required to fund any Swing Line Loan and no L/C Issuer shall be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure will be 100% covered by the Revolving Loan Commitments and/or the Contract Draw Loan Commitments, as applicable, of the non- Defaulting Lenders and/or Cash Collateral will be provided by Borrower in accordance with Section 2.9.2, and participating interests in any such newly issued or increased Letter of Credit or newly made Swing Line Loan shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.9.2(a) (and Defaulting Lenders shall not participate therein).

2.9.4. In the event that Administrative Agent, Borrower, the applicable L/C Issuer(s) and the Swing Line Lender each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the obligations to participate in Swing Line Loans, Agent Advances and the obligations to participate in Letters of Credit of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment and/or Contract Draw Loan Commitment, as applicable, and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders (other than Swing Line Loans) as Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Pro Rata Share (as determined pursuant to clause (a) of the definition of “Pro Rata Share”).

2.9.5. Any amount payable to a Defaulting Lender hereunder (whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise and including any amount that would otherwise be payable to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.10 or Section 2.6.7 but excluding Section 4.2.7(b) shall, in lieu of being distributed to such Defaulting Lender, be retained by Administrative Agent in a segregated account and, subject to any applicable requirements of law, be applied at such time or times as may be determined by Administrative Agent (i) first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to Administrative Agent hereunder, (ii) second, pro rata, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the L/C Issuer(s), Administrative Agent or Swing Line Lender, (iii) third, to the funding of any Revolving Loan or Contract Draw Loan, as applicable, or the funding or Cash Collateralization of any participating interest in any Swing Line Loan or Agent Advance, any amounts which may be due pursuant to Section 2.10 or any Letter of Credit in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by Administrative Agent, (iv) fourth, if so determined by Administrative Agent and Borrower, held in such account as Cash Collateral for future funding obligations of the Defaulting Lender under this Agreement, (v) fifth, pro rata, to the payment of any amounts owing to Borrower or the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by Borrower or any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement, and (vi) sixth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided, that if such payment is (x) a prepayment of the principal amount of any Loans or reimbursement obligations in respect of draws under Letters of Credit with respect to which the L/C Issuer has funded its participation obligations and (y) made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 16.2 are satisfied, such payment shall be applied solely to prepay the Loans of, and reimbursement obligations owed to, all Revolving Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders pro rata prior to being applied to the prepayment of any Loans, or reimbursement obligations owed to, any Defaulting Lender.

2.9.6. No Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver, consent or any other action the Lenders or the Required Lenders have taken or may take hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section 19.1), provided that any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each directly affected Lender which affects such Defaulting Lender differently than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.

2.10. Settlements.

(a) On a weekly basis (or more frequently if requested by Administrative Agent or Swing Line Lender (a “Settlement Date”), Administrative Agent shall provide each Lender with a statement of the outstanding balance of the Revolving Loans, Contract Draw Loans and Swing Line Loans as of the end of the Business Day immediately preceding the Settlement Date (the “Pre-Settlement Determination Date”) and the current balance of the Revolving Loans and Contract Draw Loans funded by each Lender (whether made directly by such Lender to Borrower or constituting a settlement by such Lender of a previous Swing Line Loan or Agent Advance). If such statement discloses that such Lender’s current balance of the Revolving Loans or Contract Draw Loans, as applicable, as of the Pre-Settlement Determination Date exceeds such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the aggregate of the Revolving Loans or Contract Draw Loans, as applicable, outstanding as of the Pre-Settlement Determination Date, then Administrative Agent shall, on the Settlement Date, transfer, by wire transfer, the net amount due to such Lender in accordance with such Lender’s instructions, and if such statement discloses that such Lender’s current balance of the aggregate of the Revolving Loans, Contract Draw Loans, Swing Line Loans and Agent Advances as of the Pre-Settlement Determination Date is less than such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loans, Contract Draw Loans, Swing Line Loans and Agent Advances outstanding as of the Pre-Settlement Determination Date, then Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Revolving Loan or Contract Draw Loan, as applicable, and such Lender shall, on the Settlement Date make a Revolving Loan or Contract Draw Loan, as applicable, transfer, by wire transfer the net amount due to Administrative Agent or Swing Line Lender, as applicable in accordance with Administrative Agent’s instructions to repay the Swing Line Loans or Agent Advances.

(b) If, prior to settling pursuant to clause (a) above, one of the events described in Section 14.7 or 14.8 has occurred, then each Lender shall, on the date such Revolving Loan or Contract Draw Loan, as applicable, was to have been made for the benefit of Borrower to settle outstanding Swing Line Loans or Agent Advances, purchase from the Swing Line Lender or Administrative Agent, as applicable, an undivided participation interest in the Swing Line Loan or Agent Advance in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of such Swing Line Loan or Agent Advance. Upon request, each Lender shall promptly transfer to the Swing Line Lender, in immediately available funds, the amount of its participation interest.

(c) Each Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans or Contract Draw Loans, as applicable, in accordance with Section 2.10(a) and to purchase participation interests in accordance with Section 2.10(b) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Lender may have against the Swing Line Lender or Administrative Agent, Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (ii) the occurrence or continuance of any Default or Event of Default; (iii) any inability of Borrower to satisfy the conditions precedent to borrowing set forth in this Agreement at any time or (iv) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. If and to the extent any Lender shall not have made such amount available to Administrative Agent or the Swing Line Lender by 2:00 P.M., Chicago time, the amount required pursuant to Section 2.10(a) or otherwise, as the case may be, on the Business Day on which such Lender receives notice from Administrative Agent of such payment or disbursement (it being understood that any such notice received after noon, Chicago time, on any Business Day shall be deemed to have been received on the next following Business Day), such Lender agrees to pay interest on such amount to Administrative Agent for the Swing Line Lender’s account forthwith on demand, for each day from the date such amount was to have been delivered to Administrative Agent to the date such amount is paid, at a rate per annum equal to (a) for the first three days after demand, the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect and (b) thereafter, the Base Rate from time to time in effect.

2.11. Commitments Several.

The failure of any Lender to make a requested loan on any date shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation (if any) to make a Loan on such date, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make any Loan to be made by such other Lender.

SECTION 3 LETTERS OF CREDIT.

3.1. General Terms.

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan Document prior to the Maturity Date, Administrative Agent shall from time to time cause to be issued by an L/C Issuer and co-sign for or otherwise guarantee, upon Borrower’s request, commercial and/or standby Letters of Credit; provided, that (i) the aggregate undrawn face amount of all such Letters of Credit shall at no time exceed $8,500,000 and (ii) no Letter of Credit shall be issued if after giving effect thereto (A) the aggregate of all outstanding Revolving Loans, Swing Line Revolving Loans, and Letters of Credit exceeds the lesser of Revolving Availability and the aggregate Revolving Commitments or (B) the sum of any Lender’s Revolving Loans and Pro Rata Share of outstanding Swing Line Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit exceeds such Lender’s Revolving Commitment. Payments made by the L/C Issuer to any Person on account of any Letter of Credit shall be immediately payable by Borrower without notice, presentment or demand and Borrower agrees that each payment made by the L/C Issuer in respect of a Letter of Credit shall constitute a request by Borrower for a Loan to reimburse L/C Issuer. In the event such Loan is not advanced by Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender or Lenders for any reason, such reimbursement obligations (whether owing to the L/C Issuer or Administrative Agent if Administrative Agent is not the L/C Issuer) shall become part of the Obligations hereunder and shall bear interest at the rate then applicable to Revolving Loans constituting Base Rate Loans until repaid. Borrower shall remit to Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of Lenders having Revolving Loan Commitments at the time when such Letter of Credit fee is due and payable by Borrower, a Letter of Credit fee equal to 2.6% per annum on the aggregate undrawn face amount of all Letters of Credit outstanding, which fee shall be payable in advance for the term of the Letter of Credit. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuance thereof, each the Letter of Credit fee shall be increased to an amount equal to 2% per annum in excess of the Letter of Credit fee otherwise payable thereon, which fee shall be payable on demand. Said fee shall be calculated on the basis of a 360 day year. Borrower shall also pay on demand the normal and customary administrative charges of L/C Issuer for issuance, amendment, negotiation, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit.

3.2. Letter of Credit Procedures.

3.2.1. L/C Applications. Borrower shall execute and deliver to the L/C Issuer the Master Letter of Credit Agreement from time to time in effect. Borrower shall give notice to Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer of the proposed issuance of each Letter of Credit on a Business Day which is at least three Business Days (or such lesser number of days as the L/C Issuer and Administrative Agent shall agree in any particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the proposed date of issuance of such Letter of Credit. Each such notice shall be accompanied by an L/C Application, duly executed by Borrower and in all respects satisfactory to the L/C Issuer, together with such other documentation as the L/C Issuer may request in support thereof, it being understood that each L/C Application shall specify, among other things, the date on which the proposed Letter of Credit is to be issued, the expiration date of such Letter of Credit (which shall not be later than the scheduled Maturity Date (unless such Letter of Credit is Cash Collateralized)) and whether such Letter of Credit is to be transferable in whole or in part. Any Letter of

Credit outstanding after the scheduled Maturity Date which is Cash Collateralized for the benefit of the L/C Issuer shall be the sole responsibility of the L/C Issuer. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms of the Master Letter of Credit Agreement, any L/C Application and the terms of this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall control.

3.2.2. Reimbursement Obligations Unconditional. Borrower’s reimbursement obligations hereunder shall be irrevocable and unconditional under all circumstances, including (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (b) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right which any Loan Party may have at any time against a beneficiary named in a Letter of Credit, any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such transferee may be acting), the L/C Issuer or any other Person, whether in connection with any Letter of Credit, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transactions (including any underlying transaction between any Loan Party and the beneficiary named in any Letter of Credit), (c) the validity, sufficiency or genuineness of any document which the L/C/ Issuer has determined complies on its face with the terms of the applicable Letter of Credit, even if such document should later prove to have been forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein shall have been untrue or inaccurate in any respect, or (d) the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms hereof. Without limiting the foregoing, no action or omission whatsoever by Administrative Agent or any Lender under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or any related matters shall result in any liability of Administrative Agent or any Lender to Borrower, or relieve Borrower of any of its obligations hereunder to any such Person.

3.3. Expiration Dates of Letters of Credit.

The expiration date of each Letter of Credit shall be no later than the earlier of (i) one year from the date of issuance and (ii) the 30th day prior to the Maturity Date; provided, however, that, upon Administrative Agent’s written consent, the expiration date of a Letter of Credit may be extended up to the one-year anniversary of the Maturity Date so long as such Letter of Credit is Cash Collateralized. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Letter of Credit may provide for automatic extensions of its expiration date for one or more one year periods, so long as the issuer thereof has the right to terminate the Letter of Credit at the end of each one year period.

3.4. Participations in Letters of Credit.

Concurrently with the issuance of each Letter of Credit, the applicable L/C Issuer shall be deemed to have sold and transferred to each Lender with a Revolving Loan Commitment, and each such Lender shall be deemed irrevocably and unconditionally to have purchased and received from such L/C Issuer, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation, to the extent of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share, in such Letter of Credit and Borrower’s reimbursement obligations with respect thereto. If Borrower does not pay any reimbursement obligation when due, Borrower shall be deemed to have immediately requested that the Lenders make a Revolving Loan which is a Base Rate Loan in a principal amount equal to such reimbursement obligations in accordance with Section 3.1. Administrative Agent shall promptly notify such Lenders of such deemed request and, without the necessity of compliance with the requirements of Section 2.5.2, Section 16.2 or otherwise such Lender shall make available to Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of such Loan. The proceeds of such Loan shall be paid over by Administrative Agent to the applicable L/C Issuer for the account of Borrower in satisfaction of such reimbursement obligations. For the purposes of this Agreement, the unparticipated portion of each Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be the applicable L/C Issuer’s “participation” therein. Each L/C Issuer hereby agrees to notify Administrative Agent of the issuance of any Letter of Credit and, upon request of Administrative Agent or any Lender, to deliver to Administrative Agent or such Lender a list of all outstanding Letters of Credit issued by such L/C Issuer, together with such information related thereto as Administrative Agent or such Lender may reasonably request.

SECTION 4 INTEREST, FEES AND CHARGES.

4.1. Interest Rate.

4.1.1. Payment. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth below, the Loans shall bear interest at the per annum rate of interest set forth in subsection (a), (b) or (c) below:

(a) Each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest at the rate per annum equal to the greater of (x) zero and (y)(i) the Applicable Margin applicable to such Base Rate Loan, plus (ii) the Base Rate in effect from time to time. All such interest shall be payable on the first Business Day of each calendar month in arrears for interest through the last day of the prior calendar month. Said rate of interest shall increase or decrease by an amount equal to each increase or decrease in the Base Rate effective on the effective date of each such change in the Base Rate.

(b) Each LIBOR Loan shall bear interest at the rate per annum equal to (i) the Applicable Margin applicable to such LIBOR Loan, plus (ii) the LIBOR Rate in effect from time to time. All such interest shall be payable on the last Business Day of each Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Loan.

(c) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuance thereof, at the option of the Required Lenders, after written notice to Borrower, the Obligations shall bear interest at the rate of 2.0% per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable thereon, which interest shall be payable on demand. All interest shall be calculated on the basis of a 360 day year.

(d) The applicable LIBOR Rate for each Interest Period shall be determined by Administrative Agent, and notice thereof shall be given by Administrative Agent promptly to Borrower. Each determination of the applicable LIBOR Rate by Administrative Agent shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties hereto, in the absence of demonstrable error. Administrative Agent shall, upon written request of Borrower, deliver to Borrower a statement showing the computations used by Administrative Agent in determining any applicable LIBOR Rate hereunder.

4.2. Increased Costs; Special Provisions For LIBOR Loans.

4.2.1. Increased Costs.

(a) If, after the Closing Date, the adoption of, or any change in, any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration of any applicable law, rule or regulation by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency: (i) shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve (including any reserve imposed by the FRB, but excluding any reserve included in the determination of the LIBOR Rate pursuant to Section 4), special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by Lender; or (ii) shall impose on any Lender any other condition affecting its LIBOR Loans, its Note or its obligation to make LIBOR Loans; and the result of anything described in clauses (i) and (ii) above is to increase the cost to (or to impose a cost on) any Lender (or any LIBOR Office of such Lender) of making or maintaining any LIBOR Loan, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by any Lender (or its LIBOR Office) under this Agreement or under its Note with respect thereto, then upon demand by such Lender (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth the basis for such demand and a calculation of the amount thereof in reasonable detail), Borrower shall pay directly to such Lender such additional amount as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or such reduction.

(b) If any Lender shall reasonably determine that any change in, or the adoption or phase-in of, any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or the compliance by any Lender or any Person controlling such Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such controlling Person’s capital as a consequence of such Lender’s obligations hereunder or under any Letter of Credit to a level below that which such Lender or such controlling Person could have achieved but for such change, adoption, phase- in or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such controlling Person’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender or such controlling Person to be material, then from time to time, upon demand by such Lender (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth the basis for such demand and a calculation of the amount thereof in reasonable detail), Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount as will compensate such Lender or such controlling Person for such reduction.

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (y) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a change in law for purposes of this Section 4.2.1, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued.

4.2.2. Basis for Determining Interest Rate Inadequate or Unfair. If:

(a) Administrative Agent reasonably determines (which determination shall be binding and conclusive on Borrower) that by reason of circumstances affecting the interbank LIBOR market adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable LIBOR Rate; or

(b) the LIBOR Rate as determined by Administrative Agent will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to any Lenders of maintaining or funding LIBOR Loans for such Interest Period or that the making or funding of LIBOR Loans has become impracticable as a result of an event occurring after the date of this Agreement which in the opinion of such Lender materially affects such Loans; then Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Borrower and, so long as such circumstances shall continue, (i) no Lender shall be under any obligation to make or convert any Base Rate Loans into LIBOR Loans and (ii) on the last day of the current Interest Period for each LIBOR Loan, such Loan shall, unless then repaid in full, automatically convert to a Base Rate Loan.

4.2.3. Changes in Law Rendering LIBOR Loans Unlawful. If any change in, or the adoption of any new, law or regulation, or any change in the interpretation of any applicable law or regulation by any governmental or other regulatory body charged with the administration thereof, should make it (or in the good faith judgment of any Lender cause a substantial question as to whether it is) unlawful for any Lender to make, maintain or fund LIBOR Loans, then such Lender shall promptly notify each of the other parties hereto and, so long as such circumstances shall continue, (a) such Lender shall have no obligation to make or convert any Base Rate Loan into a LIBOR Loan (but shall make Base Rate Loans concurrently with the making of or conversion of Base Rate Loans into LIBOR Loans by such Lender which are not so affected, in each case in an amount equal to the amount of LIBOR Loans which would be

made or converted into by such Lender at such time in the absence of such circumstances) and (b) on the last day of the current Interest Period for each LIBOR Loan of such Lender (or, in any event, on such earlier date as may be required by the relevant law, regulation or interpretation), such LIBOR Loan shall, unless then repaid in full, automatically convert to a Base Rate Loan. Each Base Rate Loan made by a Lender which, but for the circumstances described in the foregoing sentence, would be a LIBOR Loan (an “Affected Loan”) shall remain outstanding for the period corresponding to the Group of LIBOR Loans of which such Affected Loan would be a part absent such circumstances.

4.2.4. Funding Losses. Borrower hereby agrees that upon demand by any Lender (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth the basis for the amount being claimed, a copy of which shall be furnished to Administrative Agent) Borrower will indemnify such Lender against any net loss or expense which such Lender may sustain or incur (including any net loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund or maintain any LIBOR Loan), as reasonably determined by such Lender, as a result of (a) any payment, prepayment or conversion of any LIBOR Loan of such Lender on a date other than the last day of an Interest Period for such Loan (including any conversion pursuant to Section 2.5.3) or (b) any failure of Borrower to borrow, prepay, convert or continue any Loan on a date specified therefor in a notice of borrowing, prepayment, conversion or continuation pursuant to this Agreement. For this purpose, all notices to Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to be irrevocable.

4.2.5. Right of Lenders to Fund through Other Offices. Each Lender may, if it so elects, fulfill its commitment as to any LIBOR Loan by causing a foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that in such event for the purposes of this Agreement such Loan shall be deemed to have been made by such Lender and the obligation of Borrower to repay such Loan shall nevertheless be to such Lender and shall be deemed held by it, to the extent of such Loan, for the account of such branch or Affiliate.

4.2.6. Discretion of Lenders as to Manner of Funding. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, each Lender shall be entitled to fund and maintain its funding of all or any part of its Loans in any manner it sees fit, it being understood, however, that for the purposes of this Agreement all determinations hereunder shall be made as if such Lender had actually funded and maintained each LIBOR Loan during each Interest Period for such Loan through the purchase of deposits having a maturity corresponding to such Interest Period and bearing an interest rate equal to the LIBOR Rate for such Interest Period.

4.2.7. Mitigation of Circumstances; Replacement of Lender.

(a) Each Lender shall promptly notify Borrower and Administrative Agent of any event of which it has knowledge which will result in, and will use reasonable commercial efforts available to it (and not, in such Lender’s sole judgment, otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender) to mitigate or avoid, (i) any obligation by Borrower to pay any amount pursuant to Sections 4.2.1 or 4.4 or (ii) the occurrence of any circumstances described in Sections 4.2.2 or 4.2.3 (and, if such Lender has given notice of any such event described in clause (i) or (ii) above and thereafter such event ceases to exist, such Lender shall promptly so notify Borrower and Administrative Agent). Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender will designate a different funding office if such designation will avoid (or reduce the cost to Borrower of) any event described in clause (i) or (ii) above and such designation will not, in Lender’s sole judgment, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

(b) If Borrower becomes obligated to pay additional amounts to any Lender pursuant to Sections 4.2.1 or 4.4, or any Lender gives notice of the occurrence of any circumstances described in Sections 4.2.2 or 4.2.3, or any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, Borrower may designate another bank which is acceptable to Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer in their reasonable discretion (such other bank being called a “Replacement Lender”) to purchase the Loans of such Lender and such Lender’s rights hereunder, without recourse to or warranty by, or expense to, such Lender, for a purchase price equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Loans payable to such Lender plus any accrued but unpaid interest on such Loans and all accrued but unpaid fees owed to such Lender and any other amounts payable to such Lender under this Agreement, and to assume all the obligations of such Lender hereunder, and, upon such purchase and assumption (pursuant to an Assignment Agreement), such Lender shall no longer be a party hereto or have any rights hereunder (other than rights with respect to indemnities and similar rights applicable to such Lender prior to the date of such purchase and assumption) and shall be relieved from all obligations to Borrower hereunder, and the Replacement Lender shall succeed to the rights and obligations of such Lender hereunder.

4.2.8. Conclusiveness of Statements; Survival of Provisions. Determinations and statements of a Lender pursuant to Sections 4.2.1, 4.2.2, 4.2.3 or 4.2.4 shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error. Each Lender may use reasonable averaging and attribution methods in determining compensation under Sections 4.2.1 and 4.2.4, and the provisions of such Sections shall survive repayment of the Obligations, cancellation of any Notes, expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and termination of this Agreement. Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any compensation under Section 4.2.1 which arose out of or is attributable to periods prior to the date that is 180 days preceding the date of demand of payment of compensation.

4.3. Fees And Charges.

4.3.1. Unused Line Fee:

(a) Revolving Loans. Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of Lenders having Revolving Loan Commitments, an unused line fee of 0.25% of the difference between the Total Revolving Loan Commitment and the average daily balance of the Revolving Loans plus the Letter of Credit Obligations for each month, which fee shall be fully earned by such Lenders on the first day of each month and payable monthly in arrears on the first Business Day of each month with respect to all activity through the last day of the prior month. Said fee shall be calculated on the basis of a 360 day year.

(b) Contract Draw Loans.

Borrower shall also pay all normal service charges with respect to all accounts maintained by Borrower with Administrative Agent and any additional services requested by Borrower from Administrative Agent.

4.4. Taxes.

(a) All payments made by Borrower hereunder or under any Loan Documents shall be made without setoff, counterclaim, or other defense. To the extent permitted by applicable law, all payments hereunder or under the Loan Documents (including any payment of principal, interest, or fees) to, or for the benefit, of any person shall be made by Borrower free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for, or account of, any Taxes now or hereinafter imposed by any taxing authority.

(b) If Borrower makes any payment hereunder or under any Loan Document in respect of which it is required by applicable law to deduct or withhold any Taxes, Borrower shall increase the payment hereunder or under any such Loan Document such that after the reduction for the amount of Taxes withheld (and any taxes withheld or imposed with respect to the additional payments required under this Section 4.4(b)), the amount paid to Lenders or Administrative Agent equals the amount that was payable hereunder or under any such Loan Document without regard to this Section 4.4(b). To the extent Borrower withholds any Taxes on payments hereunder or under any Loan Document, Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxing authority within the time allowed for payment under applicable law and shall deliver to Administrative Agent within 30 days after it has made payment to such authority a receipt issued by such authority (or other evidence satisfactory to Lenders and Administrative Agent) evidencing the payment of all amounts so required to be deducted or withheld from such payment.

(c) If any Lender or Administrative Agent is required by law to make any payments of any Taxes on or in relation to any amounts received or receivable hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or any Tax is assessed against a Lender or Administrative Agent with respect to amounts received or receivable hereunder or under any other Loan Document, Borrower will indemnify such person against (i) such Tax (and any reasonable counsel fees and expenses associated with such Tax) and (ii) any taxes imposed as a result of the receipt of the payment under this Section 4.4. A certificate prepared in good faith as to the amount of such payment by such Lender or Administrative Agent shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive, and binding on all parties.

(d) (i) To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Lender that is not a United States person within the meaning of Code Section 7701(a)(30) (a “Non-U.S. Participant”) shall deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent on or prior to the Closing Date (or in the case of a Lender that is an Assignee, on the date of such assignment to such Lender) two accurate and complete original signed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN, W-8ECI, or W-8IMY (or any successor or other applicable form prescribed by the IRS) certifying to such Lender’s entitlement to a complete exemption from, or a reduced rate in, United States withholding tax on interest payments to be made hereunder or any Loan. If a Lender that is a Non-U.S. Participant is claiming a complete exemption from withholding on interest pursuant to Code Sections 871(h) or 881(c), such Lender shall deliver (along with two accurate and complete original signed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN) a certificate in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent (any such certificate, a “Withholding Certificate”). In addition, each Lender that is a Non-U.S. Participant agrees that from time to time after the Closing Date, (or in the case of a Lender that is an Assignee, after the date of the assignment to such Lender), when a lapse in time (or change in circumstances occurs) renders the prior certificates hereunder obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, such Lender shall, to the extent permitted under applicable law, deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent two new and accurate and complete original signed copies of an IRS Form W-8BEN, W-8ECI, or W-8IMY (or any successor or other applicable forms prescribed by the IRS), and if applicable, a new Withholding Certificate, to confirm or establish the entitlement of such Lender or Administrative Agent to an exemption from, or reduction in, United States withholding tax on interest payments to be made hereunder or any Loan.

(ii) Each Lender that is not a Non-U.S. Participant (other than any such Lender which is taxed as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) shall provide two properly completed and duly executed copies of IRS Form W-9 (or any successor or other applicable form) to Borrower and Administrative Agent certifying that such Lender is exempt from United States backup withholding tax. To the extent that a form provided pursuant to this Section 4.4(d)(ii) is rendered obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect as result of change in circumstances with respect to the status of a Lender, such Lender shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent revised forms necessary to confirm or establish the entitlement to such Lender’s or Administrative Agent’s exemption from United States backup withholding tax.

(iii) Borrower shall not be required to pay additional amounts to a Lender, or indemnify any Lender, under this Section 4.4 to the extent that such obligations would not have arisen but for the failure of such Lender to comply with Section 4.4(d).

(iv) Each Lender agrees to indemnify Administrative Agent and hold Administrative Agent harmless for the full amount of any and all present or future Taxes and related liabilities (including penalties, interest, additions to tax and expenses, and any Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable to Administrative Agent under this Section 4.4) which are imposed on or with respect to principal, interest or fees payable to such Lender hereunder and which are not paid by Borrower pursuant to this Section, whether or not such Taxes or related liabilities were correctly or legally asserted. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date Administrative Agent makes written demand therefor.

4.5. Maximum Interest.

It is the intent of the parties that the rate of interest and other charges to Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be lawful; therefore, if for any reason the interest or other charges payable under this Agreement are found by a court of competent jurisdiction, in a final determination, to exceed the limit which a Lender may lawfully charge Borrower, then the obligation to pay interest and other charges shall automatically be reduced to such limit and, if any amount in excess of such limit shall have been paid, then such amount shall be refunded to Borrower.

All sums paid by Administrative Agent in respect thereof and all costs, fees and expenses including, without limitation, Attorney Costs, all court costs and all other charges relating thereto incurred by Administrative Agent shall constitute Obligations, payable by Borrower to Administrative Agent on demand and, until paid, shall bear interest at the highest rate then applicable to Loans hereunder.

Immediately upon Borrower’s receipt of any portion of the Collateral in an amount greater than $25,000 evidenced by an agreement, Instrument or Document, including, without limitation, any Tangible Chattel Paper and any Investment Property consisting of certificated securities, Borrower shall deliver the original thereof to Administrative Agent together with an appropriate endorsement or other specific evidence of assignment thereof to Administrative Agent (in form and substance acceptable to Administrative Agent). If an endorsement or assignment of any such items shall not be made for any reason, Administrative Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized, as Borrower’s attorney and agent-in-fact, to endorse or assign the same on Borrower’s behalf.

Borrower irrevocably hereby makes, constitutes and appoints Administrative Agent (and all Persons designated by Administrative Agent for that purpose) as Borrower’s true and lawful attorney and agent-in-fact to execute and file such financing statements, documents and other agreements and instruments and do such other acts and things as may be necessary to preserve and perfect Administrative Agent’s security interest in the Collateral.

11.5. Insurance.

Borrower shall:

11.5.1. Casualty Insurance; Business Interruption Insurance. Keep the Collateral properly housed and insured for the full insurable value thereof against loss or damage by fire, theft, explosion, sprinklers, collision (in the case of motor vehicles) and such other risks as are customarily insured against by Persons engaged in businesses similar to that of Borrower, with such companies, in such amounts, with such deductibles, and under policies in such form, as shall be satisfactory to Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent acknowledges that the insurance coverage currently maintained by Borrower

per the materials provided by Borrower to Administrative Agent is satisfactory. Original (or certified) copies of such policies of insurance have been or shall be, within 90 days of the Closing Date, delivered to Administrative Agent, together with evidence of payment of all premiums therefor, and shall contain an endorsement, in form and substance acceptable to Administrative Agent, showing loss under such insurance policies payable to Administrative Agent. Such endorsement, or an independent instrument furnished to Administrative Agent, shall provide that the insurance company shall give Administrative Agent at least 30 days written notice before any such policy of insurance is altered or canceled and that no act, whether willful or negligent, or default of Borrower or any other Person shall affect the right of Administrative Agent or Lenders to recover under such policy of insurance in case of loss or damage. In addition, Borrower shall cause to be executed and delivered to Administrative Agent an assignment of proceeds of its business interruption insurance policies. Borrower hereby directs all insurers under all policies of insurance to pay all proceeds payable thereunder directly to Administrative Agent. Borrower irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints Administrative Agent (and all officers, employees or agents designated by Administrative Agent) as Borrower’s true and lawful attorney (and agent-in-fact) for the purpose of making, settling and adjusting claims under such policies of insurance, endorsing the name of Borrower on any check, draft, instrument or other item of payment for the proceeds of such policies of insurance and making all determinations and decisions with respect to such policies of insurance; provided, however, that Borrower shall have the right to make, settle and adjust any such claims involving an aggregate loss in an amount less than $500,000.

11.5.2. Liability Insurance. Maintain, at its expense, such public liability and third party property damage insurance as is customary for Persons engaged in businesses similar to that of Borrower with such companies and in such amounts, with such deductibles and under policies in such form as shall be satisfactory to Administrative Agent and original (or certified) copies of such policies have been or shall be, within 90 days after the Closing Date, delivered to Administrative Agent, together with evidence of payment of all premiums therefor; each such policy shall contain an endorsement showing Administrative Agent and Lenders as additional insured thereunder and providing that the insurance company shall give Administrative Agent at least 30 days written notice before any such policy shall be altered or canceled.

11.5.3. Administrative Agent May Purchase Insurance. If Borrower at any time or times hereafter shall fail to obtain or maintain any of the policies of insurance required above (and provide evidence thereof to Administrative Agent) or to pay any premium relating thereto, then Administrative Agent, without waiving or releasing any obligation or default by Borrower hereunder, may (but shall be under no obligation to) obtain and maintain such policies of insurance and pay such premiums and take such other actions with respect thereto as Administrative Agent deems advisable upon notice to Borrower. Such insurance, if obtained by Administrative Agent, may, but need not, protect Borrower’s interests or pay any claim made by or against Borrower with respect to the Collateral. Such insurance may be more expensive than the cost of insurance Borrower may be able to obtain on its own and may be cancelled only upon Borrower providing evidence that it has obtained the insurance as required above. All sums disbursed by Administrative Agent in connection with any such actions, including, without limitation, court costs, expenses, other charges relating thereto and reasonable Attorney Costs, shall constitute Loans hereunder, shall be payable on demand by Borrower to Administrative Agent and, until paid, shall bear interest at the highest rate then applicable to Loans hereunder. This provision shall constitute the notice to Borrower required pursuant to paragraph (3) of section 180/10 of Chapter 815 of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (2004).

Borrower shall, at the request of Administrative Agent, indicate on its records concerning the Collateral a notation, in form satisfactory to Administrative Agent, of the security interest of Administrative Agent hereunder.

All monies and other property obtained by Borrower from Administrative Agent and Lenders pursuant to this Agreement shall be used as follows: (i) the Revolving Loans shall be used solely to finance the Vault Cash in the VGTs and Redemption Machines and for working capital purposes; (ii) the Term Loan shall be solely used to repay Subordinated Debt, refinance Borrower’s existing indebtedness with the Lenders, refinance Borrower’s existing capital leases of the VGTs and Redemption Machines used in Borrower’s business; and (iii) the Contract Draw Loans shall be used to finance the purchase of new Equipment, VGT Operating Contracts and other such items purchased for the growth of Borrower’s business, provided that Administrative Agent obtains a first priority security interest in such items.

11.8. Taxes.

Borrower shall file all required tax returns and pay all of its taxes when due, subject to any extensions granted by the applicable taxing authority, including, without limitation, taxes imposed by federal, state or municipal agencies, and shall cause any liens for taxes to be promptly released; provided, that Borrower shall have the right to contest the payment of such taxes in good faith by appropriate proceedings so long as (i) the amount so contested is shown on Borrower’s financial statements; (ii) the contesting of any such payment does not give rise to a lien for taxes; (iii) Borrower keeps on deposit with Administrative Agent (such deposit to be held without interest) or a reserve is maintained against Borrower’s availability to borrow money under Section 2.1, in either case, in an amount of money which, in the sole judgment of Administrative Agent, is sufficient to pay such taxes and any interest or penalties that may accrue thereon; and (iv) if Borrower fails to prosecute such contest with reasonable diligence, Administrative Agent may apply the money so deposited in payment of such taxes. If Borrower fails to pay any such taxes and in the absence of any such contest by Borrower, Administrative Agent may (but shall be under no obligation to) advance and pay any sums required to pay any such taxes and/or to secure the release of any lien therefor, and any sums so advanced by Administrative Agent shall constitute Loans hereunder, shall be payable by Borrower to Administrative Agent on demand, and, until paid, shall bear interest at the highest rate then applicable to Loans hereunder.

If Borrower’s average daily share of “Net Terminal Income” (as such term is defined in the Illinois Video Gaming Act) is less than $80.00 for all VGT Locations for the most recently reported month, (a) Borrower shall immediately notify Administrative Agent in writing of any VGT Location in which Borrower’s share of Net Terminal Income for any consecutive 30-day period is less than an average of $40.00 per day per VGT (the “Minimum VGT Income Requirement”) installed at such VGT Location (each, a “Non-Performing VGT Location”); provided, however, that, with respect to each VGT Location, the Minimum VGT Income Requirement shall not apply to such VGT Location during the first 150 days after commencement of Borrower’s operations at such VGT Location; and (b) upon request by Administrative Agent, Borrower shall take immediate steps to discontinue its operations at any Non- Performing VGT Location, unless otherwise mutually agreed upon by Borrower and Administrative Agent; provided, however, that if the underlying VGT Operating Contract with such Non-Performing VGT Location (i) was executed prior to the date hereof and (ii) does not contain a Minimum VGT Income Requirement, Borrower shall not be required to take immediate steps to discontinue its operations at such Non-Performing VGT Location.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” herein and in other Loan Documents with reference to Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties. Administrative Agent shall provide copies of all financial statements and projections delivered to Administrative Agent by Borrower pursuant to Section 8 hereof, and copies of all material notices delivered to Administrative Agent by Borrower either by delivering copies to each Lender by electronic mail or by posting such materials to an internet service accessible by such Lenders such as “Intralinks”.

17.3. Delegation of Duties.

Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultants or experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct.

17.4. Exculpation of Administrative Agent.

None of Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall (a) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except to the extent resulting from its own gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein as determined by a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction), or (b) be responsible in any manner to any Lender or participant for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by any Loan Party or Affiliate of Borrower, or any officer thereof, contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (or the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien or security interest therein), or for any failure of Borrower or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its Obligations hereunder or thereunder. Administrative Agent shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of Borrower or any of Borrower’s Subsidiaries or Affiliates.

17.5. Reliance by Administrative Agent.

Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, communication, signature, resolution, representation, notice, consent, certificate, electronic mail message, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, confirmation from the Lenders of their obligation to indemnify Administrative Agent against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining

from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Lenders and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon each Lender. For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Section 16, each Lender that has signed this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a Lender unless Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from such Lender prior to the proposed Closing Date specifying its objection thereto.

17.6. Notice of Default.

Administrative Agent will notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice.

17.7. Credit Decision.

Each Lender acknowledges that Administrative Agent has not made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any consent and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of the Loan Parties, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by Administrative Agent to any Lender as to any matter, including whether Administrative Agent has disclosed material information in its possession. Each Lender represents to Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to Borrower hereunder. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Borrower. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly herein required to be furnished to the Lenders by Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial or other condition or creditworthiness of Borrower which may come into the possession of Administrative Agent.

17.8. Indemnification.

Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, each Lender shall indemnify upon demand Administrative Agent and its directors, officers, employees and agents (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrower and without limiting the obligation of Borrower to do so), according to its applicable Pro Rata Share, from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities (as hereinafter defined); provided that no Lender shall be liable for any payment to any such Person of any portion of the Indemnified Liabilities to the extent determined by a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the applicable Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct. No action taken in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse Administrative Agent upon demand for its ratable

share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including Attorney Costs and Taxes) incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of Borrower. The undertaking in this Section shall survive repayment of the Loans, cancellation of the Notes, expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit, any foreclosure under, or modification, release or discharge of, any or all of the Collateral Documents, termination of this Agreement and the resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent.

17.9. Administrative Agent in Individual Capacity.

CIBC US and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with the Loan Parties and Affiliates as though CIBC US were not Administrative Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that, pursuant to such activities, CIBC US or its Affiliates may receive information regarding Borrower or its Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of Borrower or such Affiliate) and acknowledge that Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to their Loans (if any), CIBC US and its Affiliates shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though CIBC US were not Administrative Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” include CIBC US and its Affiliates, to the extent applicable, in their individual capacities.

17.10. Successor Administrative Agent.

Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon 30 days’ notice to the Lenders and Borrower. If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (c) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to Borrower and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent. If Administrative Agent resigns or is removed under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall, with (so long as no Event of Default exists) the consent of Borrower (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders. If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders and Borrower, a successor agent from among the Lenders.

Each Lender hereby agrees that, except as otherwise set forth herein, any action taken by Required Lenders in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, and the exercise by the Required Lenders of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all Lenders. Administrative Agent is hereby authorized on behalf of all Lenders, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Lender to take any action with respect to any Collateral or other Loan Documents which may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected the Liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(b) The Lenders irrevocably authorize Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, (i) to release any Lien granted to or held by Administrative Agent under any Collateral Document (x) upon termination of the Commitments and payment in full of all Loans and all other obligations of Borrower hereunder and the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit (including by means of credit bidding in accordance with Section 15.3); (y) constituting property sold or to be sold or disposed of as part of or in connection with any disposition permitted hereunder (including the release of any guarantor); or (z) subject to Section 19.1 if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders; or (ii) to subordinate its interest in any Collateral to any holder of a Lien on such Collateral which is permitted by clause (v) of the definition of Permitted Liens (it being understood that Administrative Agent may conclusively rely on a certificate from Borrower in determining whether the Debt secured by any such Lien is permitted by Section 12.3). Upon request by Administrative Agent at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing Administrative Agent’s authority to release, or subordinate its interest in, particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 17.11. Each Lender hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to give blockage notices in connection with any Subordinated Debt at the direction of Required Lenders and agrees that it will not act unilaterally to deliver such notices.

17.12. Restriction on Actions by Lenders.

Each Lender agrees that it shall not, without the express written consent of Administrative Agent, set off against the Obligations, any amounts owing by such Lender to a Loan Party or any Deposit Accounts of any Loan Party now or hereafter maintained with such Lender. Each of the Lenders further agrees that it shall not, unless specifically requested to do so in writing by Administrative Agent, take or cause to be taken, any action, including the commencement of any legal or equitable proceedings to foreclose any loan or otherwise enforce any security interest in any of the Collateral or to enforce all or any part of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. All enforcement actions under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents against the Loan Parties or any third party with respect to the Obligations or the Collateral may only be taken by Administrative Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders or as otherwise permitted in this Agreement) or by its agents at the direction of Administrative Agent.

17.13. Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim.

17.13.1. Filing Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

SECTION 18 MISCELLANEOUS.

18.1. Assignments; Participations.

18.1.1. Assignments.

(a) Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Persons other than a natural Person (or holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of a natural Person), Borrower, any of Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries or any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries. (any such Person, an “Assignee”) all or any portion of such Lender’s Loans and Commitments, with the prior written consent of Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers (for an assignment of the Revolving Loans and the Revolving Commitment) and, so long as no Event of Default exists, Borrower (which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and shall not be required for an assignment by a Lender to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund). Except as Administrative Agent may otherwise agree, any such assignment shall be in a minimum aggregate amount equal to $5,000,000 or, if less, the remaining Commitment and Loans held by the assigning Lender. Borrower and Administrative Agent shall be entitled to continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with the interests so assigned to an Assignee until Administrative Agent shall have received and accepted an effective assignment agreement in form and substance acceptable to Administrative Agent (an “Assignment Agreement”) executed, delivered and fully completed by the applicable parties thereto and a processing fee of $3,500. No assignment may be made to any Person if at the time of such assignment Borrower would be obligated to pay any greater amount under Sections 4.2.1 or 4.4 to the Assignee than

Borrower is then obligated to pay to the assigning Lender under such Sections (and if any assignment is made in violation of the foregoing, Borrower will not be required to pay such greater amounts). Any attempted assignment not made in accordance with this Section 18.1.1 shall be treated as the sale of a participation under Section 18.1.2. Borrower shall be deemed to have granted its consent to any assignment requiring its consent hereunder unless Borrower has expressly objected to such assignment within three Business Days after notice thereof.

(b) From and after the date on which the conditions described above have been met, (i) such Assignee shall be deemed automatically to have become a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to such Assignee pursuant to such Assignment Agreement, shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and (ii) the assigning Lender, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment Agreement, shall be released from its rights (other than its indemnification rights) and obligations hereunder. Upon the request of the Assignee (and, as applicable, the assigning Lender) pursuant to an effective Assignment Agreement, Borrower shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent for delivery to the Assignee (and, as applicable, the assigning Lender) a Note in the principal amount of the Assignee’s Pro Rata Share of the Total Revolving Loan Commitment plus the principal amount of the Assignee’s Term Loan (and, as applicable, a Note in the principal amount of the Pro Rata Share of the Total Revolving Commitment retained by the assigning Lender plus the principal amount of the Term Loan retained by the assigning Lender). Each such Note shall be dated the effective date of such assignment. Upon receipt by Administrative Agent of such Note(s), the assigning Lender shall return to Borrower any prior Note held by it.

(c) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(d) Borrower shall not have the right to assign its rights or obligations under the Loan Documents without the prior written consent of each Lender.

18.1.2. Participations. Any Lender may at any time sell to one or more Persons participating interests in its Loans, Revolving Loan Commitment or other interests hereunder (any such Person, a “Participant”). In the event of a sale by a Lender of a participating interest to a Participant, (a) such Lender’s obligations hereunder shall remain unchanged for all purposes, (b) Borrower shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations hereunder and (c) all amounts payable by Borrower shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation and shall be paid directly to such Lender. Borrower agrees that if amounts outstanding under this Agreement are due and payable (as a result of acceleration or otherwise), each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of set-off in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement and with respect to any Letter of Credit to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as such Lender under this Agreement; provided that such right of set-off shall be subject to the obligation of each Participant to share with such Lender, and such Lender agrees to share with each Participant, on a pro rata basis. Borrower also agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 4.2 or 4.4 as if it were Lender (provided that on the date of the participation no Participant shall be entitled to any greater compensation pursuant to Section 4.2 or 4.4 than would have been paid to such Lender on such date if no participation had been sold.

18.2. Register.

Administrative Agent shall maintain a copy of each Assignment Agreement delivered and accepted by it and register (the “Register”) for the recordation of names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment of each Lender from time to time and whether such Lender is the original Lender or the Assignee. No assignment shall be effective unless and until the Assignment Agreement is accepted and registered in the Register. All records of transfer of a Lender’s interest in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, as to the ownership of the interests in the Loans. Administrative Agent shall not incur any liability of any kind with respect to any Lender with respect to the maintenance of the Register.

18.3. Customer Identification—USA Patriot Act Notice.

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

SECTION 19 GENERAL.

19.1. Waiver; Amendments.

No delay on the part of Administrative Agent or any Lender in the exercise of any right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by any of them of any right, power or remedy preclude other or further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. No amendment, modification or waiver of, or consent with respect to, any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and acknowledged by Lenders having an aggregate Pro Rata Shares of not less than the aggregate Pro Rata Shares expressly designated herein with respect thereto or, in the absence of such designation as to any provision of this Agreement, by the Required Lenders, and then any such amendment, modification, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. Except to the extent set forth in Section 15.3 hereof, no amendment, modification, waiver or consent shall (a) extend or increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (b) extend the date scheduled for payment of any principal (excluding mandatory prepayments) of or interest on the Loans or any fees payable hereunder without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (c) reduce the principal amount of any Loan, the rate of interest thereon or any fees payable hereunder, without the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby (except for periodic adjustments of interest rates and fees resulting from a change in the Applicable Margin as provided for in this Agreement); or (d) release Guarantor from its obligations under the Accel Inc. Guaranty, other than as permitted thereunder or as part of or in connection with any disposition permitted hereunder, or release or subordinate its liens on all or any substantial part of the Collateral granted under any of the other Loan Documents (except as permitted by Section 17.11), change the definition of Required Lenders, any provision of this Section 19.1, the provisions of Section 15.3 or reduce the aggregate Pro Rata Share required to effect an amendment, modification, waiver or consent, without, in each case set forth in this clause (e), the written consent of all Lenders. No provision of Section 2.6.4 with respect to the timing or application of mandatory prepayments of the Loans shall be amended, modified or waived without the consent of Lenders having a majority of the aggregate Pro Rata Share of the Term Loan. No provision of Section 17 or other provision of this Agreement affecting Administrative Agent in its capacity as such shall be amended, modified or waived without the consent of Administrative Agent. No provision of this Agreement relating to the rights or duties of the L/C Issuers in their capacities as such shall be amended, modified or waived without the consent of the L/C Issuers. No provision of this Agreement relating to the rights or duties of the Swing Line Lender in its capacity as such shall be amended, modified or waived without the consent of the Swing Line Lender.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, Administrative Agent and Borrower (a) to add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Term Loan, the Revolving Loans, the Contract Draw Loans, the Revolving Loan Commitments and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof and (b) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders.

If, in connection with any proposed amendment, modification, waiver or termination requiring the consent of all Lenders, the consent of the Required Lenders is obtained, but the consent of other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is not obtained being referred to as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then, so long as Administrative Agent is not a Non- Consenting Lender, Administrative Agent and/or a Person or Persons reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent shall have the right to purchase from such Non-Consenting Lenders, and such Non- Consenting Lenders agree that they shall, upon Administrative Agent’s request, sell and assign to Administrative Agent and/or such Person or Persons, all of the Loans and Revolving Loan Commitments of such Non-Consenting Lenders for an amount equal to the principal balance of all such Loans and Revolving Loan Commitments held by such Non-Consenting Lenders and all accrued interest, fees, expenses and other amounts then due with respect thereto through the date of sale, such purchase and sale to be consummated pursuant to an executed Assignment Agreement.

In addition such information and other credit information may be distributed by Administrative Agent or such Lender to potential participants or assignees of any portion of the Obligations, provided, that such potential participant or assignee agrees to follow the confidentiality requirements set forth herein. Borrower and Administrative Agent and each Lender further agree that this provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

19.7. Waiver of Jury Trial: Other Waivers.

(a) BORROWER AND ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH LENDER EACH HEREBY WAIVES ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING WHICH PERTAINS DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, THE OBLIGATIONS, THE COLLATERAL, ANY ALLEGED TORTIOUS CONDUCT BY BORROWER, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR LENDER OR WHICH, IN ANY WAY, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ARISES OUT OF OR RELATES TO THE RELATIONSHIP AMONG BORROWER, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND ANY LENDER.

(b) Borrower hereby waives demand, presentment, protest and notice of nonpayment, and further waives the benefit of all valuation, appraisal and exemption laws.

(d) BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES ALL RIGHTS TO NOTICE AND HEARING OF ANY KIND PRIOR TO THE EXERCISE BY ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OF ITS RIGHTS TO REPOSSESS THE COLLATERAL OF BORROWER WITHOUT JUDICIAL PROCESS OR TO REPLEVY, ATTACH OR LEVY UPON SUCH COLLATERAL, PROVIDED THAT IN THE EVENT THAT ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT TO ENFORCE ITS RIGHTS HEREUNDER BY JUDICIAL PROCESS OR SELF HELP, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT SHALL PROVIDE BORROWER WITH SUCH NOTICES AS ARE REQUIRED BY LAW.

Administrative Agent’s or Lenders’ failure, at any time or times hereafter, to require strict performance by Borrower of any provision of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents shall not waive, affect or diminish any right of Administrative Agent and Lenders thereafter to demand strict compliance and performance therewith. Any suspension or waiver by Administrative Agent, Required Lenders or all Lenders, as applicable of an Event of Default under this Agreement or any default under any of the other Loan Documents shall not suspend, waive or affect any other Event of Default under this Agreement or any other default under any of the other Loan Documents, whether the same is prior or subsequent thereto and whether of the same or of a different kind or character.

None of the undertakings, agreements, warranties, covenants and representations of Borrower contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents and no Event of Default under this Agreement or default under any of the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to have been suspended or waived by Administrative Agent or Lenders unless such suspension or waiver is in writing, signed by a duly authorized officer of Administrative Agent, Required Lenders or all Lenders, as applicable, and directed to Borrower specifying such suspension or waiver.

19.8. Choice of Governing Laws; Construction; Forum Selection.

Neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender undertakes any responsibility to any Loan Party to review or inform any Loan Party of any matter in connection with any phase of any Loan Party’s business or operations. Other than claims for breach of contract, Borrower agrees, on behalf of itself and each other Loan Party, that neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any liability to any Loan Party (whether sounding in tort or otherwise) for losses suffered by any Loan Party in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to the transactions contemplated and the relationship established by the Loan Documents, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith, unless it is determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction that such losses resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party from which recovery is sought.
