REVOLVING LOANS; LETTERS OF CREDIT; PAYMENTS
2.1 Revolving Loans.
Borrowings/Letters of Credit. From time to time on any day occurring prior to the Termination Date, Lender shall make loans to Borrower (each a "Revolving Loan"), and/or cause to be issued letters of credit on behalf of Borrower (each a "Letter of Credit") in the amounts requested in writing by a Borrower's Representative; provided that (i) the aggregate amount of Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit outstanding shall not at any time exceed $200,000,000 (the "Revolver Commitment") and (ii) Lender shall not be required to make any such loan or cause the issuance of such letters of credit unless making such loans or causing the issuance of such letters of credit would constitute the provision of Permitted Marketing Support by Lender. Borrower may from time to time borrow, prepay, in whole or in part, and reborrow Revolving Loans and/or request the cancellation or reissuance of Letters of Credit. Simultaneously herewith, borrower shall execute a promissory note for Revolving Loans in form and substance substantially similar to Exhibit A hereto or otherwise in form and substance as is agreed by the parties hereto (the "Revolver Note"), in either case in the principal amount of the Revolver Commitment.
2.2. Procedure for Obtaining Revolving Loans. By delivering a Borrowing Request to the Lender's Representative on or before the close of business, New York City time, on a Business Day (the "Borrowing Deadline"), the Borrower may from time to time irrevocably request, and Lender shall provide, Revolving Loans on the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement. By the close of business, New York City time, on the next succeeding Business Day, the Lender shall deposit immediately available funds in an account or accounts specified in the Borrowing Request. On the date
3
of each such Revolving Loan, Lender's Representative shall record the details of such Revolving Loan on the grid attached to the Revolver Note.
2.3. Principal Payments.
(a) Regular Repayments. The Revolving Loans shall mature, and Borrower unconditionally promises to pay in full the unpaid principal of each Revolving Loan to Lender, on the Termination Date. In addition, on each Friday (or if Friday is not a Business Day, the next preceding Business Day), Borrower shall repay to Lender the principal amount of any Revolving Loans which, taking into account any outstanding Letters of Credit issued pursuant to Section 2.5, are no longer required to provide Permitted Marketing Support.
(b) Optional Prepayments. At any time and from time to time Borrower may make a voluntary prepayment, in whole or in part, of the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans. Each prepayment of Revolving Loans made pursuant to this clause (b) shall be without premium or penalty. No voluntary prepayment of Revolving Loans shall cause a reduction in the Revolver Commitment.
(c) Mandatory Prepayments. Borrower shall, immediately upon any acceleration of Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 3.2, repay all Revolving Loans, unless, pursuant to Section 3.2(b), only a portion of all Revolving Loans is so accelerated, in which event Borrower shall repay such portion.
(d) Grid Update/Note Return. On the date of repayment or prepayment of principal of, and payment of other amounts pursuant to Section 2.4 on, Revolving Loans issued pursuant to Section 2.1, Lender's Representative shall record the details of such repayment, prepayment or payment on the grid attached to the Revolver Note.
2.4. No Interest. There shall be no interest payable in respect of Revolving Loans; provided that Borrower shall pay to Lender, in lieu of any such interest, any amounts received by Borrower from third parties constituting interest paid to Borrower by such third parties on amounts deposited by Borrower with such third parties to the extent that such deposits were made from the proceeds of Permitted Marketing Support. Such amounts shall be paid on each Friday (or if Friday is not a Business Day, the next preceding Business Day) after the date on which such amounts are received by Borrower.
2.5. Procedure for Obtaining Letters of Credit. By delivering a Letter of Credit Request to the Lender's Representative on or before the close of business, New York City time, on a Business Day (the "Borrowing Deadline"), Borrower may from time to time irrevocably request, and Lender shall cause the issuance of, Letters of Credit which are expected to be substantially in the form of Attachment 1 to Exhibit C hereto, subject to any such Letter of Credit being acceptable to the issuer and the beneficiary thereof, and on the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement. Any such Letters of Credit shall be subject to the terms and conditions, timing restrictions, and other limitations, of the MWG Credit Agreement.
2.6. Draws on Letters of Credit. Any draw on a Letter of Credit shall be treated hereunder as a conversion of the Letter of Credit to a Revolving Loan to the extent of the draw and effective as of the time of the draw.

4
respect of any Revolving Loan, Letter of Credit or any other obligation of Borrower hereunder, and such failure to pay such amount shall continue for five (5) Business Days after any such amount or other obligation becomes due in accordance with the terms hereof.

(c) Non-Performance of Covenants. Borrower shall default in the due performance of any covenant or agreement contained herein and such default shall continue unremedied for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice thereof shall have been given to Borrower by Lender.
(d) Default on Other Indebtedness; Judgments. (i) A default shall occur in the payment when due (subject to any applicable grace period), whether by acceleration or otherwise, of any EMMT Indebtedness (other than EMMT Indebtedness described in clause (a) above) of Borrower having a principal amount, individually or in the aggregate, of at least $20,000,000, or a default shall occur in the performance or observance of any obligation or condition with respect to such EMMT Indebtedness if the effect of such default is to accelerate the maturity of any such EMMT Indebtedness or such default shall continue unremedied for any applicable period of time sufficient to permit the holder or holders of such Indebtedness, or any trustee or agent for such holders, to cause such EMMT Indebtedness to become due and payable prior to its expressed maturity; or (ii) any judgment or order for the payment of money in excess of $20,000,000 (taking into account any insurance proceeds payable under a policy where the insurer has accepted coverage without reservation) shall be rendered against Borrower and such judgments or decrees shall not have been vacated, discharged, stayed or bonded pending appeal within sixty (60) days from the entry thereof.

(iv) permit or suffer to exist the commencement of any bankruptcy, reorganization, debt arrangement or other case or proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency law, or any dissolution, winding up or liquidation proceeding, in respect of Borrower, and, if any such case or proceeding is not commenced by Borrower, such case or proceeding shall be consented to or acquiesced in by Borrower or shall result in the entry of an order for relief or shall remain for sixty (60) days undismissed; or
(v) take any corporate action authorizing, or in furtherance of, any of the foregoing.
3.2. Remedies.
(a) Remedies Upon a Bankruptcy. If an Event of Default described in clause (e) of Section 3.1 shall occur, the obligation of Lender to make Revolving Loans hereunder shall automatically terminate and the outstanding principal amount of all Revolving Loans and other obligations of Borrower hereunder shall automatically be and become immediately due and payable, and all Letters of Credit issued on behalf of Borrower shall be immediately returned to
5
Lender or 100% cash collateralized by Borrower, without notice, demand or presentment, all of which are hereby waived by Borrower.
(b) Remedies Upon Other Events of Default. If any Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in clause (e) of Section 3.1) shall occur for any reason, whether voluntary or involuntary, and be continuing, Lender, by written notice to Borrower, may declare (i) the obligation of Lender to make Revolving Loans to Borrower hereunder to be terminated (if not theretofore terminated) and/or (ii) all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount of Revolving Loans and other obligations of Borrower hereunder to be due and payable, and all Letters of Credit issued on behalf of Borrower shall be immediately returned to Lender or 100% cash collateralized, whereupon the obligation of Lender to make Revolving Loans to Borrower and to have issued on behalf of Borrower Letters of Credit shall terminate and/or the outstanding principal amount of Revolving Loans and other obligations of Borrower hereunder which shall be so declared due and payable shall be and become immediately due and payable, and all Letters of Credit issued on behalf of Borrower shall be immediately returned to Lender or 100% cash collateralized, without further notice, demand or presentment, all of which are hereby waived by Borrower.
(c) Cash Collateralization. As used in Sections 3.2(a) and (b) above, "cash collateralization" shall mean the immediate deposit into an account established and maintained by the Lender, which account may be a "securities account" (within the meaning of Section 8-501 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of New York), in the name of and for the benefit of the Lender, of cash in an amount equal to the outstanding amount of all Letters of Credit.
(d) Rescission of Declaration. Any declaration made pursuant to clause (b) above may, should Lender in its absolute discretion so elect, be rescinded by written notice to Borrower at any time after the principal of the Revolving Loans shall have become due and payable, but before any judgment or decree for the payment of the monies so due, or any part thereof, shall have been entered; provided that Borrower shall have paid all other amounts then owed to Lender including all costs, expenses and liabilities incurred by Lender in respect of such declaration and all consequences thereof (except principal of the Revolving Loans which by such declaration shall have become payable) and every other Event of Default shall have been made good, waived or cured; and provided, further, that no such rescission or annulment shall extend to or affect any subsequent Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.
