CREDIT AGREEMENT

This CREDIT AGREEMENT (including all exhibits and schedules hereto, as the same may be amended, modified and/or restated from time to time, this “Agreement”) is entered into as of December 29, 2006, by and among International Textile Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (f/k/a Safety Components International, Inc.) (“ITG”), ITG Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (f/k/a International Textile Group, Inc.) (“Holdings”), Burlington Industries LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Burlington”), Carlisle Finishing LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Carlisle”), Cone Denim LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Denim”), Cone Jacquards LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Jacquards”), Automotive Safety Components International, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“ASCI”), Safety Components Fabric Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“SCFTI”), Automotive Safety Components International Limited, a limited liability company incorporated in England and Wales with registered number 02640241 (the “UK Borrower”) (ITG, Holdings, Burlington, Carlisle, Denim, Jacquards, ASCI, SCFTI and the UK Borrower are sometimes referred to herein together as the “Borrowers” and individually as a “Borrower”), the other Persons party hereto that are designated as a “Credit Party”, General Electric Capital Corporation, a Delaware corporation (in its individual capacity, “GE Capital”), as the Agent for the several financial institutions from time to time party to this Agreement (collectively, the “Lenders” and individually each a “Lender”) and for itself as a Lender (including as Swingline Lender) and L/C Issuer, and such Lenders.

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, the Borrowers have requested, and the Lenders have agreed to make available to the Borrowers, a revolving credit facility (including a letter of credit subfacility) upon and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement to (a) refinance Prior Indebtedness, provide for working capital, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes of the Borrowers and (b) fund certain fees and expenses associated with the funding of the Loans;

WHEREAS, each Borrower desires to secure all of its Obligations under the Loan Documents by granting to the Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a security interest in and lien upon substantially all of its personal and real property in accordance with and subject to the limitations set forth in the Loan Documents;

WHEREAS, subject to the terms hereof, each (a) US Credit Party is willing to guarantee all of the Obligations of Borrowers and to grant to Agent, for the benefit of Agent, Lenders and L/C Issuers, a security interest in and lien upon substantially all of its personal and real property and (b) Foreign Credit Party is willing to guarantee all of the UK Obligations and to grant to Agent, for the benefit of Agent, Lenders and L/C Issuers, a security interest in and lien upon substantially all of its personal and real property to support the UK Obligations;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements, provisions and covenants contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:

ARTICLE I—THE CREDITS

1.1 Amounts and Terms of Commitments.

(a) The Revolving Credit.

(i) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and in reliance upon the representations and warranties of the Credit Parties contained herein, each Revolving Lender severally and not jointly agrees to make Loans to any of the Borrowers (each such Loan, a “Revolving Loan”) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date to the Revolving Termination Date, in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount set forth opposite such Lender’s name in Schedule 1.1(a) under the heading “Revolving Loan Commitment” (such amount as the same may be reduced or increased from time to time as a result of one or more assignments pursuant to Section 9.9 or as a result of a Commitment Increase in accordance with Section 1.1(a)(ii), being referred to herein as such Lender’s “Revolving Loan Commitment”); provided, however, that, after giving effect to any Borrowing of Revolving Loans, the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Revolving Loans shall not exceed the Maximum Revolving Loan Balance. Subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, amounts borrowed under this subsection 1.1(a) may be repaid and reborrowed from time to time. The “Maximum Revolving Loan Balance” from time to time will be the lesser of:

(A) the “Borrowing Base” (as calculated pursuant to the Borrowing Base Certificate) in effect from time to time, or

(B) the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment then in effect;

less, in either case, the sum of (w) the Availability Block, plus (x) the aggregate amount of Letter of Credit Obligations plus (y) outstanding Swing Loans plus (z) such Reserves as may be imposed by the Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

If at any time the then outstanding principal balance of (x) Revolving Loans exceeds the Maximum Revolving Loan Balance or (y) the Revolving Loans advanced to US Borrowers exceeds the US Borrowing Base Limit, then in each case the Borrowers (or the US Borrowers, as applicable) shall immediately prepay outstanding Revolving Loans in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess; provided that if such excess results from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates relating to any outstanding Letter of Credit which is denominated in a currency other than Dollars (a “Currency Overadvance”), such excess must be prepaid within five (5) Business Days.

If the Borrower Representative requests that Revolving Lenders make, or permit to remain outstanding Revolving Loans in excess of the Borrowing Base (any such excess Revolving Loan is herein referred to as an “Overadvance”), the Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to make, or permit to remain outstanding such Overadvance; provided, however, that the Agent may not cause Revolving Lenders to make, or permit to remain outstanding, (x) aggregate Revolving Loans in excess of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment less the sum of outstanding Swing Loans plus the aggregate amount of Letter of Credit Obligations or (y) an Overadvance in an aggregate amount in excess of 5% of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment. If an Overadvance is made, or permitted to remain outstanding, pursuant to the preceding sentence, then all Revolving Lenders shall be bound to make, or permit to remain outstanding, such Overadvance based upon their Commitment Percentage of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If an Overadvance remains outstanding for more than ninety (90) days during any three hundred sixty (360) day period, Revolving Loans must be repaid immediately in an amount sufficient to eliminate all of such Overadvance. Furthermore, the Required Lenders may prospectively revoke the Agent’s ability to make or permit Overadvances by written notice to the Agent. All Overadvances shall constitute Base Rate Loans and shall bear interest at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for Revolving Loans and shall bear interest at the default rate under Section 1.3(c) only if not repaid within five (5) Business Days. The funding or sufferance of any Overadvance shall not constitute a waiver by the Agent or Lenders of any Event of Default caused thereby.

(ii) Commitment Increase. From time to time after the Closing Date but on or prior to ninety-one (91) days before the Revolving Termination Date, the Revolving Loan Commitments may be increased (but in no event in excess of $50,000,000 in the aggregate for all such increases) (the “Commitment Increase Cap”) such that the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment shall at no time exceed $215,000,000 (any such increase, a “Commitment Increase”) at the option of the Borrowers pursuant to delivery of written notice from the Borrowers of a proposed Commitment Increase (the “Increased Commitment Proposal”) to the Agent if each of the following conditions have been met:

(A) no Default or Event of Default shall exist on the effective date of such increase;

(B) no Commitment Increase may be in an amount less than $25,000,000 (or if less, the remaining amount of the Commitment Increase Cap);

(C) the proposed Commitment Increase shall have been consented to in writing by each existing Lender (if any) who is increasing its Revolving Commitment;

(D) the proposed Commitment Increase, together with any prior Commitment Increase, shall not exceed the Commitment Increase Cap; and

(E) the Agent shall have received amendments to this Agreement and the Loan Documents, joinder agreements for any new Lenders, and all other promissory notes, agreements, documents and instruments reasonably satisfactory to the Agent in its reasonable discretion evidencing and setting forth the conditions of the Commitment Increase.

The Increased Commitment Proposal shall be offered on a first priority basis to existing Lenders, who may accept, but are not obligated to accept, based on their respective Commitment Percentage of the Commitment Increase. If the existing Lenders do not accept the total amount of the Commitment Increase on such pro rata basis, then existing Lenders may accept, but are not obligated to accept, the remaining portions on a non-pro rata basis. To the extent that existing Lenders do not accept the Commitment Increase, the Increased Commitment Proposal may be offered to Persons who would otherwise be assignees in accordance with Section 9.9(b) (“Eligible Assignee”). The Agent shall have discretion to adjust the allocation of the proposed additional commitments, as the case may be, between and among Lenders that accept the Increased Commitment Proposal and Eligible Assignees that accept the Increased Commitment Proposal.

Each of the Borrowers, Lenders and the Agent acknowledges and agrees that each Commitment Increase meeting the conditions set forth in this Section 1.1(a)(ii) shall not require the consent of any Lender other than those Lenders, if any, which have agreed to increase their Revolving Loan Commitments in connection with such proposed Commitment Increase. After giving effect to any Commitment Increase, it may be the case that the outstanding Revolving Loans are not held pro rata in accordance with the new Revolving Loan Commitments. In order to remedy the foregoing, on the effective date of the applicable Commitment Increase, the Revolving Lenders (including, without limitation, any new Lenders) shall make advances among themselves so that after giving effect thereto the Revolving Loans will be held by the Revolving Lenders (including, without limitation, any new Lenders), pro rata in accordance with the Commitment Percentage hereunder (after giving effect to the applicable Commitment Increase).

(b) Letters of Credit. (i) Commitment and Conditions. On the terms and subject to the conditions contained herein, each L/C Issuer agrees to Issue, at the request of the Borrower Representative, in accordance with such L/C Issuer’s usual and customary business practices, and for the account of the US Borrowers (or, as long as the applicable US Borrowers remain responsible for the payment in full of all amounts drawn thereunder and related fees, costs and expenses, and subject to Section 5.4(a), for the account of any Subsidiary of a US Borrower), Letters of Credit (denominated in Dollars

or any other Available Currency) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date through the earlier of the Revolving Termination Date and 7 days prior to the date specified in clause (a) of the definition of Revolving Termination Date; provided, however, that such L/C Issuer shall not be under any obligation to Issue any Letter of Credit upon the occurrence of any of the following, after giving effect to such Issuance:

(A) (i) the aggregate outstanding principal balance of Revolving Loans would exceed the Maximum Revolving Loan Balance, (ii) the Letter of Credit Obligations for all Letters of Credit would exceed the US Dollar Equivalent of $25,000,000 (the “L/C Sublimit”) or (iii) the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loans would exceed the US Borrowing Base Limit;

(B) the expiration date of such Letter of Credit (i) is not a Business Day, (ii) is more than one year after the date of issuance thereof or (iii) is later than 7 days prior to the date specified in clause (a) of the definition of Revolving Termination Date; provided, however, that any Letter of Credit with a term not exceeding one year may provide for its renewal for additional periods not exceeding one year as long as (x) the applicable Borrower and such L/C Issuer have the option to prevent such renewal before the expiration of such term or any such period and (y) neither such L/C Issuer nor any Borrower shall permit any such renewal to extend such expiration date beyond the date set forth in clause (iii) above; or

(C) (i) any fee due in connection with, and on or prior to, such Issuance has not been paid, (ii) such Letter of Credit is requested to be issued in a form that is not reasonably acceptable to such L/C Issuer or (iii) such L/C Issuer shall not have received, each in form and substance reasonably acceptable to it and duly executed by the applicable US Borrowers or the Borrower Representative on their behalf (and, if such Letter of Credit is issued for the account of any Subsidiary of a US Borrower, such Person), the documents that such L/C Issuer generally uses in the ordinary course of its business for the Issuance of letters of credit of the type of such Letter of Credit (collectively, the “L/C Reimbursement Agreement”). Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, in the event of any conflict between the terms or provisions of this Agreement and the terms or provisions of any L/C Reimbursement Agreement, the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall control.

For each such Issuance, the applicable L/C Issuer may, but shall not be required to, determine that, or take notice whether, the conditions precedent set forth in Section 2.2 have been satisfied or waived in connection with the Issuance of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that no Letter of Credit shall be Issued during the period starting on the first Business Day after the receipt by such L/C Issuer of notice from the Agent or the Required Lenders that any condition precedent contained in Section 2.2 is not satisfied and ending on the date all such conditions are satisfied or duly waived.

(ii) Notice of Issuance. The Borrower Representative shall give the relevant L/C Issuer and the Agent a notice of any requested Issuance of any Letter of Credit, which shall be effective only if received by such L/C Issuer and the Agent not later than 12:00 noon (New York time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of such requested Issuance, or such later time as is agreed by such L/C Issuer. Such notice may be made in a writing substantially the form of Exhibit 1.1(b) duly completed or in a writing in any other form acceptable to such L/C Issuer (an “L/C Request”) or by telephone if confirmed promptly, but in any event within one Business Day and prior to such Issuance, with such an L/C Request.

(iii) Reporting Obligations of L/C Issuers. Each L/C Issuer agrees to provide the Agent (which, after receipt, the Agent shall provide to each Revolving Lender), in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent, each of the following on the following dates: (A) (i) on or prior to any Issuance of any Letter of Credit by such L/C Issuer, (ii) immediately after any drawing under any such Letter of Credit or (iii) immediately after any payment (or failure to pay when due) by the applicable US Borrowers of any related L/C Reimbursement Obligation, notice thereof, which shall contain a reasonably detailed description of such Issuance, drawing or payment; (B) upon the request of the Agent (or any Revolving Lender through the Agent), copies of any Letter of Credit Issued by such L/C Issuer and any related L/C Reimbursement Agreement and such other documents and information as may reasonably be requested by the Agent; and (C) on the first Business Day of each calendar week, a schedule of the Letters of Credit Issued by such L/C Issuer, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent, setting forth the Letter of Credit Obligations for such Letters of Credit outstanding on the last Business Day of the previous calendar week.

(iv) Acquisition of Participations. Upon any Issuance of a Letter of Credit in accordance with the terms of this Agreement resulting in any increase in the Letter of Credit Obligations, each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to have acquired, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such Letter of Credit and the related Letter of Credit Obligations in an amount equal to its Commitment Percentage of such Letter of Credit Obligations.

(v) Reimbursement Obligations of the US Borrowers. The US Borrowers agree to pay to the L/C Issuer of any Letter of Credit each L/C Reimbursement Obligation owing with respect to such Letter of Credit no later than the first Business Day after the applicable US Borrowers or the Borrower Representative receive notice from such L/C Issuer that payment has been made under such Letter of Credit or that such L/C Reimbursement Obligation is otherwise due (the “L/C Reimbursement Date”) with interest thereon computed as set forth in clause (A) below. In the event that any L/C Issuer incurs any L/C Reimbursement Obligation not repaid by the US Borrowers as provided in this clause (v) (or any such payment by the US Borrowers is rescinded or set aside for any reason), such L/C Issuer shall promptly notify the Agent of such failure (and,

upon receipt of such notice, the Agent shall forward a copy to each Revolving Lender) and, irrespective of whether such notice is given, such L/C Reimbursement Obligation shall be payable on demand (which shall be deemed paid in full upon the making of the Revolving Loans described in subsection (vi) below) by the US Borrowers with interest thereon computed (A) from the date on which such L/C Reimbursement Obligation arose to the L/C Reimbursement Date, at the interest rate applicable during such period to Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans and (B) thereafter until payment in full, at the interest rate applicable during such period to past due Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans.

(vi) Reimbursement Obligations of the Revolving Credit Lenders. Upon receipt of the notice described in clause (v) above from the Agent, each Revolving Lender shall pay to the Agent for the account of such L/C Issuer its Commitment Percentage of such L/C Reimbursement Obligation. By making such payment (other than during the continuation of an Event of Default under subsection 7.1(f) or 7.1(g)), such Lender shall be deemed to have made a Revolving Loan to the US Borrowers, which, upon receipt thereof by such L/C Issuer, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have used in whole to repay such L/C Reimbursement Obligation. Any such payment that is not deemed a Revolving Loan shall be deemed a funding by such Lender of its participation in the applicable Letter of Credit and the related L/C Obligations. Such participation shall not otherwise be required to be funded. Upon receipt by any L/C Issuer of any payment from any Lender pursuant to this clause (vi) with respect to any portion of any L/C Reimbursement Obligation, such L/C Issuer shall promptly pay over to such Lender all payments received by such L/C Issuer after such payment by such Lender with respect to such portion.

(vii) Obligations Absolute. The obligations of the US Borrowers and the Revolving Lenders pursuant to clauses (iv), (v) and (vi) above shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement irrespective of (A) (i) the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision in any Letter of Credit, any document transferring or purporting to transfer a Letter of Credit, any Loan Document (including the sufficiency of any such instrument), or any modification to any provision of any of the foregoing, (ii) any document presented under a Letter of Credit being forged, fraudulent, invalid, insufficient or inaccurate in any respect or failing to comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or (iii) any loss or delay, including in the transmission of any document, (B) the existence of any setoff, claim, abatement, recoupment, defense or other right that any Person (including any Credit Party) may have against the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any other Person, whether in connection with any Loan Document or any other Contractual Obligation or transaction, or the existence of any other withholding, abatement or reduction, (C) in the case of the obligations of any Revolving Lender, (i) the failure of any condition precedent set forth in Section 2.2 to be satisfied (each of which conditions precedent the Revolving Lenders hereby irrevocably waive) or (ii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or

otherwise) of any Credit Party and (D) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind of the Agent, any Lender or any other Person or any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this subsection 1.1(b)(vii), constitute a legal or equitable discharge of any obligation of the Borrowers or any Revolving Lender hereunder.

(viii) Outstanding Letters of Credit. The parties hereto agree that the letters of credit issued by Bank of America, N.A. and set forth on Schedule 1.1(b) shall constitute Letters of Credit hereunder.

(d) Swing Loans. (i) Availability. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and in reliance upon the representations and warranties of the Credit Parties contained herein, the Swingline Lender shall make Loans (each a “Swing Loan”) available to the US Borrowers under the Revolving Loan Commitments from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date until the Revolving Termination Date in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding not to exceed the Swingline Commitment; provided, however, that the Swingline Lender may not make any Swing Loan (x) to the extent that after giving effect to such Swing Loan, the aggregate principal amount of all Loans would exceed the Maximum Revolving Loan Balance and (y) during the period commencing on the first Business Day after it receives notice from the Agent or the Required Lenders that one or more of the conditions precedent contained in Section 2.2 are not satisfied and ending when such conditions are satisfied or duly waived. In connection with the making of any Swing Loan, the Swingline Lender may but shall not be required to determine that, or take notice whether, the conditions precedent set forth in Section 2.2 have been satisfied or waived. Each Swing Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan and must be repaid in full on the earliest of (A) the funding date of any Borrowing of Revolving Loans and (B) the Revolving Termination Date. Within the limits set forth in the first sentence of this clause (i), amounts of Swing Loans repaid may be reborrowed under this clause (i).

(ii) Borrowing Procedures. In order to request a Swing Loan, the Borrower Representative shall give to the Agent a notice to be received not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the day of the proposed Borrowing, which may be made in a writing substantially in the form of Exhibit 1.1(d) duly completed (a “Swingline Request”) or by telephone if confirmed promptly but, in any event, prior to such Borrowing, with such a Swingline Request. In addition, if any Notice of Borrowing of Revolving Loans requests a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans (other than a Borrowing to refinance outstanding Swing Loans), the Swingline Lender may, notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein, make a Swing Loan available to the US Borrowers in an aggregate amount not to exceed such proposed Borrowing, and the aggregate amount of the corresponding proposed Borrowing shall be reduced accordingly by the principal amount of such Swing Loan. The Agent shall promptly notify the Swingline Lender of the details of any requested Swing Loan. Upon receipt of such notice and subject to the

terms of this Agreement, the Swingline Lender shall make a Swing Loan available to the US Borrowers by making the proceeds thereof available to the Agent and, in turn, the Agent shall make such proceeds available to the US Borrowers on the date set forth in the relevant Swingline Request or Notice of Borrowing.

(iii) Refinancing Swing Loans. The Swingline Lender may (and shall no less frequently than once each week) or, subject to subsection 1.5(a), the Borrower Representative, may at any time forward a demand to the Agent (which the Agent shall, upon receipt, forward to each Revolving Lender) that each Revolving Lender pay to the Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender, such Revolving Lender’s Commitment Percentage of all or a portion of the outstanding Swing Loans. Each Revolving Lender shall pay such Commitment Percentage to the Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender (A) if the notice or demand therefor was received by such Lender prior to 12:00 p.m. (New York time) on any Business Day, on such Business Day and (B) otherwise, on the Business Day following such receipt. Payments received by the Agent after 2:00 p.m. (New York time) shall be deemed to be received on the next Business Day. Upon receipt by the Agent of such payment (other than during the continuation of any Event of Default under subsection 7.1(f) or 7.1(g)), such Revolving Lender shall be deemed to have made a Revolving Loan to the US Borrowers, which, upon receipt of such payment by the Swingline Lender from the Agent, the US Borrowers shall be deemed to have used in whole to refinance such Swing Loan. In addition, regardless of whether any such demand is made, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default under subsection 7.1(f) or 7.1(g), each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to have acquired, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in each Swing Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such Swing Loan. If any payment made by any Revolving Lender as a result of any such demand is not deemed a Revolving Loan, such payment shall be deemed a funding by such Lender of such participation. Such participation shall not be otherwise required to be funded. Upon receipt by the Swingline Lender of any payment from any Revolving Lender pursuant to this clause (iii) with respect to any portion of any Swing Loan, the Swingline Lender shall promptly pay over to such Revolving Lender all payments of principal (to the extent received after such payment by such Lender) and interest (to the extent accrued with respect to periods after such payment) received by the Swingline Lender from any Borrower with respect to such portion.

(iv) Obligation to Fund Absolute. Each Revolving Lender’s obligations pursuant to clause (iii) above shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever, including (A) the existence of any setoff, claim, abatement, recoupment, defense or other right that such Lender, any Affiliate thereof or any other Person may have against the Swingline Lender, the Agent, any other Lender or L/C Issuer or any other Person, (B) the failure of any condition precedent set forth in Section 2.2 to be satisfied or

the failure of the Borrower Representative to deliver a Notice of Borrowing (each of which requirements the Revolving Lenders hereby irrevocably waive) and (C) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of any Credit Party.

(e) Interest and principal on all Loans shall be paid in Dollars. For purposes of preparing Borrowing Base Certificates, financial statements, calculating financial covenants and determining compliance with covenants expressed in Dollars, Pounds Sterling, Canadian Dollars and Euros will be converted to Dollars based on (i) GAAP, consistently applied, for the purposes of preparing cash flow statements and income statements and (ii) as of the last day of the relevant period or as of the date of Borrowing Base Certificates for the purposes of preparing balance sheets, Borrowing Base Certificates, or covenants determined as of a specified date. If the Agent receives any payment from or on behalf of any Credit Party in a currency other than the currency in which the relevant Obligation is denominated, the Agent may convert the payment (including the monetary proceeds of realization upon any Collateral and any funds held in a cash collateral account) into the currency in which the relevant Obligation is payable at the exchange rate published in The Wall Street Journal on the Business Day closest in time to the date on which such payment was due. The relevant Obligations shall be satisfied only to the extent of the amount actually received by the Agent upon such conversion. Unless otherwise specified herein, all determinations of US Dollar Equivalents shall be determined by reference to The Wall Street Journal published on the Business Day closest in time to the relevant date of determination or for the relevant period of determination.

1.2 Notes.

(a) The Revolving Loans made by each Revolving Lender shall be evidenced by this Agreement and, if requested by such Lender, a Revolving Note payable to the order of such Lender in an amount equal to such Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment.

(b) Swing Loans made by the Swingline Lender shall be evidenced by this Agreement and, if requested by such Lender, a Swingline Note in an amount equal to the Swingline Commitment.

1.3 Interest.

(a) Subject to subsections 1.3(c) and 1.3(d), each Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the date when made at a rate per annum equal to the LIBOR or the Base Rate, as the case may be, plus the Applicable Margin plus in the case of Loans made to the UK Borrower, the Mandatory Cost; provided Swing Loans may not be LIBOR Rate Loans. Commencing on February 1, 2007, and continuing thereafter, the Applicable Margin for Loans shall be adjusted as set forth in the definition of Applicable Margin. Each determination of an interest rate by the Agent shall be conclusive and binding on each Borrower and the Lenders in the absence of demonstrable error. All computations of fees and interest payable under this

Agreement shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed; provided, that, computations with respect to interest on Base Rate Loans shall be based on a 365/366 day year and actual days elapsed. Interest and fees shall accrue during each period during which interest or such fees are computed from the first day thereof to the last day thereof.

(b) Interest on each Loan shall be paid in arrears on each Interest Payment Date. Interest shall also be paid on the date of any payment or prepayment of any Loan in full.

(c) At the election of the Required Lenders while any Event of Default exists (or automatically while any Event of Default under subsection 7.1(f) or 7.1(g) exists), the Borrowers shall pay interest (after as well as before entry of judgment thereon to the extent permitted by law) on the Obligations owing by them under the Loan Documents from and after the date of occurrence of such Event of Default, at a rate per annum which is determined by adding two percent (2.0%) per annum to the Applicable Margin then in effect for such Loans (plus the LIBOR or Base Rate, as the case may be) and, in the case of Obligations under the Loan Documents not subject to an Applicable Margin (other than the fees described in subsection 1.9(c)), at a rate per annum equal to the rate per annum applicable to Revolving Loans which are Base Rate Loans (including the Applicable Margin with respect thereto) plus two percent (2.0%). All such interest shall be payable on demand of the Agent or the Required Lenders.

(d) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of the Borrowers hereunder shall be subject to the limitation that payments of interest shall not be required, for any period for which interest is computed hereunder, to the extent (but only to the extent) that contracting for, charging or receiving such payment by the respective Lender would be contrary to the provisions of any law applicable to such Lender limiting the highest rate of interest which may be lawfully contracted for, charged or received by such Lender, and in such event the Borrowers shall pay such Lender interest at the highest rate permitted by applicable law (“Maximum Lawful Rate”); provided, however, that if at any time thereafter the rate of interest payable hereunder is less than the Maximum Lawful Rate, Borrowers shall continue to pay interest hereunder at the Maximum Lawful Rate until such time as the total interest received by the Agent, on behalf of Lenders, is equal to the total interest that would have been received since the Closing Date had the interest payable hereunder been (but for the operation of this paragraph) permitted at the interest rate payable as provided in this Agreement.

1.4 Loan Accounts.

(a) The Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, shall record on its books and records the amount of each Loan made, the interest rate applicable, all payments of principal and interest thereon and the principal balance thereof from time to time outstanding. The Agent shall deliver to the Borrower Representative on a monthly basis a loan statement setting forth such record for the immediately preceding month. Such record shall, absent manifest error, be conclusive evidence of the amount of the Loans made by the Lenders to the Borrowers and the interest and payments thereon. Any

failure to so record or any error in doing so, or any failure to deliver such loan statement shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrowers hereunder (and under any Note) to pay any amount owing with respect to the Loans or provide the basis for any claim against the Agent.

(b) The Agent, acting as agent of the Borrowers solely for tax purposes to the extent provided for in this Agreement and solely with respect to the actions described in this subsection 1.4(b), shall establish and maintain at its address referred to in Section 9.2 (or at such other address as the Agent may notify the Borrower Representative) (A) a record of ownership (the “Register”) in which the Agent agrees to register by book entry the interests (including any rights to receive payment hereunder) of the Agent, each Lender and each L/C Issuer in the Revolving Loans, Swing Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations, each of their obligations under this Agreement to participate in each Loan, Letter of Credit and L/C Reimbursement Obligations, and any assignment of any such interest, obligation or right and (B) accounts in the Register in accordance with its usual practice in which it shall record (1) the names and addresses of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers (and each change thereto pursuant to Sections 9.9 and 9.22), (2) the Commitments of each Lender, (3) the amount of each Loan and each funding of any participation described in clause (A) above, for LIBOR Rate Loans, the Interest Period applicable thereto, (4) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or paid, (5) the amount of the L/C Reimbursement Obligations due and payable or paid in respect of Letters of Credit and (6) any other payment received by the Agent from a Borrower and its application to the Obligations.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Loans (including any Notes evidencing such Loans and, in the case of Revolving Loans, the corresponding obligations to participate in Letter of Credit Obligations and Swing Loans) and the L/C Reimbursement Obligations are registered obligations, the right, title and interest of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers and their assignees in and to such Loans or L/C Reimbursement Obligations, as the case may be, shall be transferable only upon notation of such transfer in the Register and no assignment thereof shall be effective until recorded therein. This Section 1.4 and Section 9.9 shall be construed so that the Loans and L/C Reimbursement Obligations are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code.

(d) The Credit Parties, the Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender or L/C Issuer, as applicable, for all purposes of this Agreement. Information contained in the Register with respect to any Lender or any L/C Issuer shall be available for access by the Borrowers, the Borrower Representative, the Agent, such Lender or such L/C Issuer at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. No Lender or L/C Issuer shall, in such capacity, have access to or be otherwise permitted to review any information in the Register other than information with respect to such Lender or L/C Issuer unless otherwise agreed by the Agent.

1.5 Procedure for Revolving Credit Borrowing.

(a) Each Borrowing of a Revolving Loan shall be made upon the Borrower Representative’s irrevocable (subject to Section 10.5 hereof) written notice delivered to the Agent in the form of a Notice of Borrowing, which notice must be received by the Agent prior to 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the requested Borrowing date in the case of each Base Rate Loan and (ii) on the day which is three (3) Business Days prior to the requested Borrowing date in the case of each LIBOR Rate Loan and, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each Revolving Loan to be advanced to the UK Borrower. Such Notice of Borrowing shall specify:

(i) the amount of the Borrowing (which shall be in an aggregate minimum principal amount of $100,000 and multiples of $50,000 in excess thereof);

(ii) the requested Borrowing date, which shall be a Business Day;

(iii) whether the Borrowing is to be comprised of LIBOR Rate Loans or Base Rate Loans; and

(iv) if the Borrowing is to be LIBOR Rate Loans, the Interest Period applicable to such Loans.

(b) Upon receipt of a Notice of Borrowing, the Agent will promptly notify each Revolving Lender of such Notice of Borrowing and of the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Borrowing.

(c) Unless the Agent is otherwise directed in writing by the Borrower Representative, the proceeds of each requested Borrowing after the Closing Date will be made available to the Borrowers by the Agent by wire transfer of such amount to the Borrowers pursuant to the wire transfer instructions specified on the signature page hereto.

1.6 Conversion and Continuation Elections.

(a) Borrowers shall have the option to (i) request that any Revolving Loan be made as a LIBOR Rate Loan, (ii) convert at any time all or any part of outstanding Loans (other than Swing Loans) from Base Rate Loans to LIBOR Rate Loans, (iii) convert any LIBOR Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan, subject to Section 10.4 if such conversion is made prior to the expiration of the Interest Period applicable thereto, or (iv) continue all or any portion of any Loan as a LIBOR Rate Loan upon the expiration of the applicable Interest Period. Any Loan or group of Loans having the same proposed Interest Period to be made or continued as, or converted into, a LIBOR Rate Loan must be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess of such amount. Any such election must be made by the Borrower Representative by 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the 3rd Business Day prior to (1) the date of any proposed Revolving Loan which is to bear interest at LIBOR, (2) the end of each Interest Period

with respect to any LIBOR Rate Loans to be continued as such, or (3) the date on which Borrowers wish to convert any Base Rate Loan to a LIBOR Rate Loan for a Interest Period designated by the Borrower Representative in such election. If no election is received with respect to a LIBOR Rate Loan by 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the 3rd Business Day prior to the end of the Interest Period with respect thereto, that LIBOR Rate Loan shall be converted to a Base Rate Loan at the end of its Interest Period. The Borrower Representative must make such election by notice to the Agent in writing, by fax or overnight courier (or by telephone, to be confirmed in writing on such day) or Electronic Transmission. In the case of any conversion or continuation, such election must be made pursuant to a written notice (a “Notice of Conversion/Continuation”) in the form of Exhibit 1.6. No Loan shall be made, converted into or continued as a LIBOR Rate Loan, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Agent or the Required Lenders have determined not to make or continue any Loan as a LIBOR Rate Loan as a result thereof. No Loan may be made as or converted into a LIBOR Rate Loan until 15 days after the Closing Date.

(b) Upon receipt of a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, the Agent will promptly notify each Lender thereof. In addition, the Agent will, with reasonable promptness, notify the Borrower Representative and the Lenders of each determination of LIBOR; provided that any failure to do so shall not relieve any Borrower of any liability hereunder or provide the basis for any claim against the Agent. All conversions and continuations shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Loans held by each Lender with respect to which the notice was given.

(c) Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Agreement, after giving effect to any Borrowing, or to any continuation or conversion of any Loans, there shall not be more than ten (10) different Interest Periods in effect.

1.7 Optional Prepayments.

(a) The Borrowers may at any time prepay the Loans in whole or in part (other than prepayments which have the effect of permanently reducing the Commitments) in an amount greater than or equal to $100,000 (other than Swing Loans for which no minimum shall apply), in each instance, without penalty or premium but subject to payment of LIBOR breakage costs as provided in Section 10.4.

(b) The Borrowers may at any time upon at least two (2) Business Days’ prior written notice by the Borrower Representative to the Agent, prepay the Loans in whole or in part, which has the effect of permanently reducing the Commitments, in an amount greater than or equal to $1,000,000 (other than Swing Loans for which prior written notice is not required and for which no minimum shall apply), in each instance, without penalty or premium but subject to payment of LIBOR breakage costs as provided in Section 10.4.

(c) The notice of any prepayment shall not thereafter be revocable by the Borrowers or the Borrower Representative and the Agent will promptly notify each Lender thereof and of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such prepayment. The

payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Together with each prepayment under this Section 1.7, the Borrowers shall pay any amounts required pursuant to Section 10.4.

1.8 Mandatory Prepayments of Loans and Commitment Reductions.

(a) Revolving Loan. The Borrowers shall repay to the Lenders in full on the date specified in clause (a) of the definition of “Revolving Termination Date” the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Loans and Swing Loans owing by such Borrowers outstanding on the Revolving Termination Date.

(b) Asset Dispositions. If a Borrower or any Guarantor shall at any time or from time to time:

(i) make a Disposition; or

(ii) suffer an Event of Loss;

and, in each case, the aggregate amount of the Net Proceeds received by such Borrower or Guarantor in connection with such Disposition or Event of Loss and all other Dispositions and Events of Loss occurring during the fiscal year exceeds the US Dollar Equivalent of $2,500,000, then (A) the Borrower Representative shall promptly notify the Agent of such Disposition or Event of Loss (including the amount of the estimated Net Proceeds to be received by such Borrower or Guarantor in respect thereof) and (B) promptly upon receipt by such Borrower or Guarantor of the Net Proceeds of such Disposition or Event of Loss, the Borrowers shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, such Net Proceeds to the Agent for distribution to the Lenders as a prepayment of the Loans owing, in the case of a Disposition or Event of Loss by a US Credit Party, by the US Borrowers, or, in the case of a Disposition or Event of Loss by a Foreign Credit Party, by the UK Borrower, which prepayment in either case shall be applied in accordance with subsection 1.8(d) hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing and provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such prepayment shall not be required to the extent a Borrower or a Subsidiary reinvests or enters into any binding commitment that would effect such a reinvestment of the Net Proceeds of such Disposition or Event of Loss in productive assets (other than Inventory) of a kind then used or usable in the business of a Borrower or such Guarantor, within one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of such Disposition or Event of Loss and in the case of a binding commitment, such funds are reinvested within ninety (90) days after the date such binding commitment is entered into. Pending such reinvestment, the Net Proceeds shall be delivered to the Agent, for distribution first, to the Swingline Lender as a prepayment of Swing Loans (to the extent of Swing Loans outstanding), but not as a permanent reduction of the Swingline Commitment) and thereafter to the Revolving Lenders, as a prepayment of the Revolving Loans (to the extent of Revolving Loans then outstanding), but not as a permanent reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitment.

(c) Issuance of Securities/Indebtedness. Immediately upon the receipt by ITG, or any Holding Company of ITG or BST, of the Net Issuance Proceeds of (i) the

issuance of Stock or Stock Equivalents (including any capital contribution but excluding any Net Issuance Proceeds from Excluded Equity Issuances) or (ii) Holdco Debt, the Borrowers shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Agent an amount equal to the Relative Commitment Factor as of such date multiplied by such Net Issuance Proceeds in each case for application to the Loans in accordance with subsection 1.8(d); provided, however, that to the extent that there are Net Issuance Proceeds remaining as described in this clause (c) after application to the Loans in accordance with subsection 1.8(d), such amounts shall be applied first to outstanding Indebtedness existing under the Mexican Facility and second to outstanding Indebtedness existing under the BST Facility.

(d) Application of Prepayments. Subject to subsection 1.10(c), any prepayments pursuant to subsection 1.8(b) (other than prepayments of Swing Loans and Revolving Loans as set forth therein) or subsection 1.8(c) shall be applied first to prepay outstanding Swing Loans, and second to prepay outstanding Revolving Loans owing, in the case of prepayment by a US Credit Party, by the US Borrower or UK Borrower, or in the case of prepayment by a Foreign Credit Party, by the UK Borrower. Prepayments pursuant to subsection 1.8(c) shall result in a permanent reduction of the Commitments by a corresponding amount. Amounts prepaid shall be applied first to any Base Rate Loans then outstanding and then to outstanding LIBOR Rate Loans with the shortest Interest Periods remaining. Together with each prepayment under this Section 1.8, the Borrowers shall pay any amounts required pursuant to Section 10.4 hereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 1.8(d), the UK Borrower shall not be required to make any prepayment of any US Obligation.

(e) No Implied Consent. Provisions contained in this Section 1.8 for the application of proceeds of certain transactions shall not be deemed to constitute consent of the Lenders to transactions that are not otherwise permitted by the term hereof.

1.9 Fees.

(a) Agent’s Fees. The US Borrowers shall pay to the Agent, for the Agent’s own account, fees in the amounts and at the times set forth in a letter agreement between the Borrowers and the Agent dated November 10, 2006 (as amended from time to time, the “Fee Letter”).

(b) Unused Commitment Fee. The US Borrowers shall pay to the Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Revolving Lenders, a fee (the “Unused Commitment Fee”) in an amount equal to

(i) the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment, less

(ii) the sum of (x) the average daily principal balance of all Revolving Loans outstanding plus (y) the average daily amount of Letter of Credit Obligations plus (z) the average daily principal balance of Swing Loans, in each case, during the preceding month (the sum of (x), (y) and (z), the “Average Daily Revolving Amount”),

multiplied by (A) 0.375%, so long as the Average Daily Revolving Amount during the immediately preceding month is less than or equal to $40,000,000 or (B) 0.25%, so long as the Average Daily Revolving Amount for the immediately preceding month is greater than $40,000,000. Such fee shall be payable monthly in arrears on the first day of the month following the date hereof and the first day of each month thereafter. The Unused Commitment Fee provided in this subsection 1.9(b) shall accrue at all times from and after mutual execution and delivery of this Agreement.

(c) Letter of Credit Fee. The applicable Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent for the ratable benefit of the Revolving Lenders, as compensation to such Lenders for Letter of Credit Obligations incurred hereunder, (i) without duplication of costs and expenses otherwise payable to the Agent or Revolving Lenders hereunder or fees otherwise paid by the Borrowers, all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Agent or any Lender on account of such Letter of Credit Obligations, and (ii) for each month during which any Letter of Credit Obligation shall remain outstanding, a fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) in an amount equal to the product of the average daily undrawn face amount of all Letters of Credit issued, guaranteed or supported by risk participation agreements multiplied by a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Margin with respect to Revolving Loans which are LIBOR Rate Loans; provided, however, at the Required Lenders’ option, while an Event of Default exists (or automatically while an Event of Default under subsection 7.1(f) or 7.1(g) exists), such rate shall be increased by two percent (2.00%) per annum. Such fee shall be paid to the Agent for the benefit of the Revolving Lenders in arrears, on the first day of each calendar month and on the Revolving Termination Date. In addition, the Borrowers shall pay to any L/C Issuer, on demand, such reasonable fees, without duplication of fees otherwise payable hereunder (including all per annum fees), charges and expenses of such L/C Issuer in respect of the issuance, negotiation, acceptance, amendment, transfer and payment of such Letter of Credit or otherwise payable pursuant to the application and related documentation under which such Letter of Credit is issued.

1.10 Payments by the Borrowers.

(a) All payments (including prepayments) to be made by each Credit Party on account of principal, interest, fees and other amounts required hereunder shall be made without set-off, recoupment, counterclaim, withholding or deduction of any kind, shall, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, be made to the Agent (for the ratable account of the Persons entitled thereto) at the address for payment specified in the signature page hereof in relation to the Agent (or such other address as the Agent may from time to time specify in accordance with Section 9.2), and shall be made in Dollars and in immediately available funds, no later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date due. Any payment which is received by the Agent later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) shall be deemed to have been received on the immediately succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. Each Borrower and each other Credit Party hereby irrevocably waives the right to direct the application during the continuance of an Event of Default of any and all payments in respect of any Obligation and any proceeds of Collateral, provided, however, that all payments in respect of any Obligation of any Foreign Credit Party and any proceeds of Collateral of a Foreign Credit

Party shall be applied in accordance with Section 1.10(d). Each Borrower hereby authorizes the Agent and each Lender to make a Revolving Loan (which shall be a Base Rate Loan and which may be a Swing Loan) to pay (i) interest, principal (including Swing Loans), Unused Commitment Fees, Letter of Credit Fees and fees payable to Agent pursuant to the Fee Letter owing, in the case of a US Borrower, by the US Borrowers and the UK Borrower, and in the case of the UK Borrower, by the UK Borrower in each instance, on the date due, or (ii) after ten (10) days prior notice to the Borrower Representative, other fees, costs or expenses payable by such Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries hereunder or under the other Loan Documents.

(b) Subject to the provisions set forth in the definition of “Interest Period” herein, if any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or fees, as the case may be.

(c) During the continuance of an Event of Default, the Agent may, and shall upon the direction of the Required Lenders apply any and all payments in respect of any US Obligation in accordance with clauses first through eleventh below. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, all amounts collected or received by the Agent from US Borrowers or their Domestic Subsidiaries after any or all of the Obligations have been accelerated (so long as such acceleration has not been rescinded) and all proceeds of Collateral of any US Borrower and its Domestic Subsidiaries received by the Agent from any US Borrowers or its Domestic Subsidiaries as a result of the exercise of its remedies under the Collateral Documents after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default shall be applied as follows:

first, to payment of costs and expenses, including Attorney Costs, of the Agent payable or reimbursable by the US Credit Parties under the Loan Documents;

second, to payment of Attorney Costs of Lenders payable or reimbursable by the US Borrowers under this Agreement;

third, to payment of all accrued unpaid interest on the US Obligations and fees owed to the Agent, Lenders and US L/C Issuers;

fourth, to payment of principal of the Revolving Loan constituting part of the US Obligations (including, without limitation, L/C Reimbursement Obligations then due and payable) and cash collateralization of L/C Reimbursement Obligations to the extent not then due and payable);

fifth, to payment of any other amounts owing constituting US Obligations;

sixth, to payment of costs and expenses, including Attorney Costs, of the Agent payable or reimbursable by the Foreign Credit Parties under the Loan Documents;

twelfth, any remainder shall be for the account of and paid to whoever may be lawfully entitled thereto.

In carrying out the foregoing, (i) amounts received shall be applied in the numerical order provided until exhausted prior to the application to the next succeeding category and (ii) each of the Lenders or other Persons entitled to payment shall receive an amount equal to its pro rata share of amounts available to be applied pursuant to clauses third, fourth and fifth above.

(d) During the continuance of an Event of Default, the Agent may, and shall upon the direction of the Required Lenders apply any and all payments in respect of any UK Obligation in accordance with clauses first through sixth below. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, all amounts collected or received by the Agent, other than from US Borrowers and their Domestic Subsidiaries, after any or all of the Obligations have been accelerated (so long as such acceleration has not been rescinded) and all proceeds of Collateral of the UK Borrower and Foreign Subsidiaries of US Borrowers received by the Agent as a result of the exercise of its remedies under the Collateral Documents after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default shall be applied as follows:

first, to payment of costs and expenses, including Attorney Costs, of the Agent payable or reimbursable by the Foreign Credit Parties under the Loan Documents;

fifth, to payment of any other amounts owing constituting UK Obligations;

sixth, to payment of Obligations with respect to Bank Products; and

seventh, any remainder shall be for the account of and paid to whoever may be lawfully entitled thereto, as directed by Borrowers or by a court of competent jurisdiction.

Notwithstanding anything in clause (c) and (d) above to the contrary, to the extent the Agent receives proceeds of voting equity interests in any Foreign Subsidiary of a US Credit Party, such proceeds shall be applied (i) until proceeds from the sale of 35% of such voting equity interest have been received by the Agent, such proceeds shall be applied to the payments described in (and in the order of) clauses first through fifth of clause (d) above (and then in accordance with (and in the order of) clauses first through eleventh of clause (c) above) and (ii) thereafter (1) 50% of such remaining proceeds shall be applied to the payments described in (and in the order of) clauses first through fifth of clause (d) above (and then in accordance with (and in order of) clauses first through eleventh of clauses (c) above) and (2) the remaining 50% of such proceeds shall be applied to the payments described in (and in the order of) clauses first through eleventh of clause (c) above; provided, however, that in no case shall proceeds from the sale of more than 65% of such voting equity interests be applied to the payments described in clauses first through fifth of clause (c) above.

1.11 Payments by the Lenders to the Agent; Settlement.

(a) The Agent may, on behalf of Lenders, disburse funds to the Borrowers for Loans requested. Each Lender shall reimburse the Agent on demand for all funds disbursed on its behalf by the Agent, or if the Agent so requests, each Lender will remit to the Agent its Commitment Percentage of any Loan before the Agent disburses same to the Borrowers. If the Agent elects to require that each Lender make funds available to the Agent prior to disbursement by the Agent to the Borrowers, the Agent shall advise each Lender by telephone, fax or email of the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Loan requested by the Borrower Representative no later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the scheduled Borrowing date applicable thereto, and each such Lender shall pay the Agent such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such requested Loan, in same day funds, by wire transfer to the Agent’s account on such scheduled Borrowing date. If any Lender fails to pay its Commitment Percentage within one (1) Business Day after the Agent’s demand, the Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower Representative, and the Borrowers shall immediately repay such amount to the Agent. Any repayment required pursuant to this subsection 1.11(a) shall be without premium or penalty. Nothing in this subsection 1.11(a) or elsewhere in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, including the remaining provisions of Section 1.11, shall be deemed to require the Agent to advance funds on behalf of any Lender or to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that the Agent, Swingline Lender or Borrowers may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

(b) At least once each calendar week or more frequently at the Agent’s election (each, a “Settlement Date”), the Agent shall advise each Lender by telephone, fax or email of the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of principal, interest and fees paid for the benefit of Lenders with respect to each applicable Loan. Provided that each Lender has funded all payments required to be made by it and funded all purchases of participations required to be funded by it under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as of such Settlement Date, the Agent shall pay to each Lender such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of principal, interest and fees paid by the Borrowers since the previous Settlement Date for the benefit of such Lender with respect to the Loans held by it. Such payments shall be made by wire transfer to such Lender not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the next Business Day following each Settlement Date. To the extent that any Lender (a “Non-Funding Lender”) has failed to fund all such payments or failed to fund the purchase of all such participations required to be funded by such Lender pursuant to this Agreement, the Agent shall be entitled to set off the funding shortfall against that Non-Funding Lender’s Commitment Percentage of all payments received from the Borrowers.

(c) Availability of Lender’s Commitment Percentage. The Agent may assume that each Revolving Lender will make its Commitment Percentage of each Revolving Loan available to the Agent on each Borrowing date. If such Commitment Percentage is not, in fact, paid to the Agent by such Revolving Lender when due, the Agent will be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Revolving Lender without setoff, counterclaim, withholding or deduction of any kind. If any Revolving Lender fails to pay the amount of its Commitment Percentage forthwith upon the Agent’s demand, the Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower Representative and the applicable Borrowers shall immediately repay such amount to the Agent. Nothing in this subsection 1.11(c) or elsewhere in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to require the Agent to advance funds on behalf of any Revolving Lender or to relieve any Revolving Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that the Borrowers may have against any Revolving Lender as a result of any default by such Revolving Lender hereunder. To the extent that the Agent advances funds to the Borrowers on behalf of any Revolving Lender and is not reimbursed therefor on the same Business Day as such advance is made, the Agent shall be entitled to retain for its account all interest accrued on such advance until reimbursed by the applicable Revolving Lender.

(d) Return of Payments.

(i) If the Agent pays an amount to a Lender under this Agreement in the belief or expectation that a related payment has been or will be received by the Agent from the Borrowers and such related payment is not received by the Agent, then the Agent will be entitled to recover such amount from such Lender on demand without setoff, counterclaim, withholding or deduction of any kind.

(ii) If the Agent determines at any time that any amount received by the Agent under this Agreement must be returned to any Credit Party or paid to any other Person pursuant to any insolvency law or otherwise, then, notwithstanding any other term or condition of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Agent will not be required to distribute any portion thereof to any Lender. In addition, each Lender will repay to the Agent on demand any portion of such amount that the Agent has distributed to such Lender, together with interest at such rate, if any, as the Agent is required to pay to any Borrower or such other Person, without setoff, counterclaim, withholding or deduction of any kind.

(e) Non-Funding Lenders. The failure of any Non-Funding Lender to make any Revolving Loan or any payment required by it hereunder, or to fund any purchase of any participation to be made or funded by it on the date specified therefor shall not relieve any other Lender (each such other Revolving Lender, an “Other Lender”) of its obligations to make such loan or fund the purchase of any such participation on such date, but neither any Other Lender nor the Agent shall be responsible for the failure of any Non-Funding Lender to make a loan, fund the purchase of a participation or make any other payment required hereunder. Notwithstanding anything set forth herein to the contrary, a Non-Funding Lender shall not have any voting or consent rights under or with respect to any Loan Document or constitute a “Lender” or a “Revolving Lender” (or be included in the calculation of “Required Lenders” hereunder) for any voting or consent rights under or with respect to any Loan Document.

4.6 Insurance.

(a) Such Credit Party shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, (i) maintain or cause to be maintained in full force and effect all policies of insurance of any kind with respect to the property and businesses of such Credit Party and such Subsidiaries (including policies of life, fire, theft, product liability, public liability, property damage, other casualty, employee fidelity, workers’ compensation, business interruption and employee health and welfare insurance) with financially sound and reputable insurance companies or associations (in each case that are not Affiliates of Borrowers) of a nature and providing such coverage as is sufficient and as is customarily carried by Persons with businesses of the size and character of the business of the Credit Parties in localities where such Persons operate and (ii) cause all such insurance relating to any Collateral of such Credit Party to name the Agent as additional insured or loss payee, as appropriate. All policies of insurance on real and personal Property of the Credit Parties will contain an endorsement, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Agent, showing loss payable to the Agent (Form 438 BFU or equivalent) and extra expense and business interruption endorsements. Unless otherwise agreed by the Agent, such Credit Party will use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that such endorsement, or an independent instrument furnished to the Agent, will provide that the insurance companies will give the Agent at least 30 days’ prior written notice before any such policy or policies of insurance shall be altered or canceled and that no act or default of Borrowers or any other Person shall affect the right of the Agent to recover under such policy or policies of insurance in case of loss or damage. Such Credit Party shall direct all present and future insurers under its “All Risk” policies of insurance to pay all proceeds payable thereunder directly to the Agent. If any insurance proceeds are paid by check, draft or other instrument payable to any Credit Party and the Agent jointly, the Agent may endorse such Credit Party’s name thereon and do such other things as the Agent may deem advisable to reduce the same to cash. The Agent reserves the right at any time, upon review of each Credit Party’s risk profile, to require additional forms and limits of insurance.

(b) Unless the Borrowers provide the Agent with evidence of the insurance coverage required by this Agreement from time to time upon the reasonable request of the Agent, the Agent may purchase insurance at the Credit Parties’ expense to protect the Agent’s and Lenders’ interests in the Credit Parties’ and their Subsidiaries’ properties. This insurance may, but need not, protect the Credit Parties’ and their Subsidiaries’ interests. The coverage that the Agent purchases may provide that such coverage will not pay any claim that any Credit Party or any Subsidiary of any Credit Party makes or any claim that is made against such Credit Party or any Subsidiary in connection with such coverage. The Borrowers may later cancel any insurance purchased by the Agent, but only after providing the Agent with evidence that there has been obtained insurance as required by this Agreement. If the Agent purchases any such insurance, the Credit Parties will be responsible for the costs of that insurance, including interest and any other charges the Agent may impose in connection with the placement of such insurance, until the effective date of the cancellation or expiration of the insurance. The costs of any such insurance shall be added to the Obligations. The costs of any such insurance may be more than the cost of insurance the Borrowers may be able to obtain on their own.

4.7 Payment of Obligations. Such Credit Party shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, pay, discharge and perform as the same shall become due and payable or required to be performed, all their respective obligations and liabilities, including:

(a) all tax liabilities, assessments and governmental charges or levies upon it or its properties or assets, unless the same are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently prosecuted which stay the enforcement of any Lien and for which adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP are being maintained by such Person;

(b) all lawful claims which, if unpaid, would by law become a Lien (other than a Permitted Lien) upon its Property unless the same are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently prosecuted which stay the imposition or enforcement of the Lien and for which adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP are being maintained by such Person;

(c) all Indebtedness, as and when due and payable, but subject to any subordination provisions contained herein and/or in any instrument or agreement evidencing such Indebtedness, except to the extent the failure to so pay any such Indebtedness would not constitute an Event of Default under Section 7.1(e); and

(d) the performance of all obligations under any Contractual Obligation to which such Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries is bound, or to which it or any of its properties is subject, including the Related Agreements, except where the failure to perform would not reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

(e) payments to the extent necessary to avoid the imposition of a Lien with respect to, or the involuntary termination of any underfunded Benefit Plan, including without limitation, payments to Burlington’s Benefit Plan on or prior to July 31, 2007.

4.8 Compliance with Laws.

(a) Such Credit Party shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, comply with all Requirements of Law of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over it or its business, except where the failure to comply would not reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, such Credit Party shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, comply with, and maintain its real Property, whether owned, leased, subleased or otherwise operated or occupied, in compliance with, all applicable Environmental Laws (including by implementing any Remedial Action necessary to achieve such compliance or that is required by orders and directives of any Governmental Authority) except for failures to comply that would not, in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. Without limiting the foregoing, if an Event of Default is continuing and the Agent has a reasonable basis to believe that (i) there exist violations of Environmental Laws by any Credit Party or any Subsidiary of any Credit Party or (ii) there exist any Material Environmental Liabilities, in each case, that would have, in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect, then such Credit Party shall, promptly upon receipt of request from the Agent, allow the Agent and its Related Persons access to such real property for the purpose of conducting, such environmental audits and assessments, including subsurface sampling of soil and groundwater, and cause the preparation of such reports, in each case as the Agent may from time to time reasonably request. Such audits, assessments and reports, to the extent not conducted by the Agent or any of its Related Persons, shall be conducted and prepared by reputable environmental consulting firms reasonably acceptable to the Agent and shall be in form and detail reasonably acceptable to the Agent.

(iv) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any provision of any Loan Document, whether any condition set forth in any Loan Document is satisfied or waived, as to the financial condition of any Credit Party or as to the existence or continuation or possible occurrence or continuation of any Default or Event of Default and shall not be deemed to have notice or knowledge of such occurrence or continuation unless it has received a notice from the Borrower Representative, any Lender or L/C Issuer describing such Default or Event of Default clearly labeled “notice of default” (in which case the Agent shall promptly give notice of such receipt to all Lenders);

and, for each of the items set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) above, each Lender, L/C Issuer, ITG and each Borrower hereby waives and agrees not to assert (and each of ITG and each Borrower shall cause each other Credit Party to waive and agree not to assert) any right, claim or cause of action it might have against the Agent based thereon.

8.6 Agent Individually. The Agent and its Affiliates may make loans and other extensions of credit to, acquire Stock and Stock Equivalents of, engage in any kind of business with, any Credit Party or Affiliate thereof as though it were not acting as the Agent and may receive separate fees and other payments therefor. To the extent the Agent or any of its Affiliates makes any Loan or otherwise becomes a Lender hereunder, it shall have and may exercise the same rights and powers hereunder and shall be subject to the same obligations and liabilities as any other Lender and the terms “Lender”,

“Revolving Lender”, “Required Lender”, “Required Revolving Lender” and any similar terms shall, except where otherwise expressly provided in any Loan Document, include, without limitation, the Agent or such Affiliate, as the case may be, in its individual capacity as Lender, Revolving Lender or as one of the Required Lenders.

8.7 Lender Credit Decision. Each Lender and each L/C Issuer acknowledges that it shall, independently and without reliance upon the Agent, any Lender or L/C Issuer or any of their Related Persons or upon any document (including any offering and disclosure materials in connection with the syndication of the Loans) solely or in part because such document was transmitted by the Agent or any of its Related Persons, conduct its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of each Credit Party and make and continue to make its own credit decisions in connection with entering into, and taking or not taking any action under, any Loan Document or with respect to any transaction contemplated in any Loan Document, in each case based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate. Except for documents expressly required by any Loan Document to be transmitted by the Agent to the Lenders or L/C Issuers, the Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender or L/C Issuer with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any Credit Party or any Affiliate of any Credit Party that may come in to the possession of the Agent or any of its Related Persons.

8.8 Expenses; Indemnities.

(a) Each Lender agrees to reimburse the Agent and each of its Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by any Credit Party) promptly upon demand, severably and ratably, of any costs and expenses (including fees, charges and disbursements of financial, legal and other advisors and Other Taxes (as defined in Section 10.1(c)) paid in the name of, or on behalf of, any Credit Party) that may be incurred by the Agent or any of its Related Persons in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, consent, waiver or enforcement (whether through negotiations, through any work-out, bankruptcy, restructuring or other legal or other proceeding or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of its rights or responsibilities under, any Loan Document.

(b) Each Lender further agrees to indemnify the Agent and each of its Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by any Credit Party), severably and ratably, from and against Liabilities (including taxes, interests and penalties imposed for not properly withholding or backup withholding on payments made to or for the account of any Lender) that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against, the Agent or any of its Related Persons in any matter relating to or arising out of, in connection with or as a result of, any Loan Document, any Related Document or any other act, event or transaction related, contemplated in or attendant to any such document, or, in each case, any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Agent or any of its Related Persons under or with respect to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable to the Agent or any of its Related Persons to the extent such liability has resulted primarily from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Agent or, as the case

may be, such Related Person, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment or order; and provided further, a Related Person shall be indemnified only to the extent any of the foregoing relates to or arises from the Related Person acting for Agent (in its capacity as Agent).

8.9 Resignation of Agent or L/C Issuer.

(a) The Agent may resign at any time by delivering notice of such resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower Representative, effective on the date set forth in such notice or, if no such date is set forth therein, upon the date such notice shall be effective. If the Agent delivers any such notice, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent. If, within 30 days after the retiring Agent having given notice of resignation, no successor Agent has been appointed by the Required Lenders that has accepted such appointment, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent from among the Lenders. Each appointment under this clause (a) shall be subject to the prior consent of the Borrowers, which may not be unreasonably withheld but shall not be required during the continuance of an Event of Default.

(b) Effective immediately upon its resignation, (i) the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents, (ii) the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the Agent until a successor Agent shall have accepted a valid appointment hereunder, (iii) the retiring Agent and its Related Persons shall no longer have the benefit of any provision of any Loan Document other than with respect to any actions taken or omitted to be taken while such retiring Agent was, or because such Agent had been, validly acting as the Agent under the Loan Documents and (iv) subject to its rights under Section 8.3, the retiring Agent shall take such action as may be reasonably necessary to assign to the successor Agent its rights as the Agent under the Loan Documents. Effective immediately upon its acceptance of a valid appointment as the Agent, a successor Agent shall succeed to, and become vested with, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent under the Loan Documents.

(c) So long as at least one L/C Issuer remains, any L/C Issuer may resign at any time by delivering notice of such resignation to the Agent, effective on the date set forth in such notice or, if no such date is set forth therein, on the date such notice shall be effective. Upon such resignation, the L/C Issuer shall remain an L/C Issuer and shall retain its rights and obligations in its capacity as such (other than any obligation to Issue Letters of Credit but including the right to receive fees or to have Lenders participate in any L/C Reimbursement Obligation thereof) with respect to Letters of Credit issued by such L/C Issuer prior to the date of such resignation and shall otherwise be discharged from all other duties and obligations under the Loan Documents.

8.10 Release of Collateral or Guarantors. Each Lender and L/C Issuer hereby consents to the release and hereby directs the Agent to release (or, in the case of clause (b)(ii) below, release or subordinate) the following:

(a) any Subsidiary of a Borrower from its guaranty of any Obligation if all of the Stock and Stock Equivalents of such Subsidiary owned by any Credit Party are sold or transferred in a transaction permitted under the Loan Documents (including pursuant to a waiver or consent), to the extent that, after giving effect to such transaction, such Subsidiary would not be required to guaranty any Obligations pursuant to Section 4.13; and

(b) any Lien held by the Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties against (i) any Collateral that is sold, transferred, conveyed or otherwise disposed of by a Credit Party in a transaction permitted by the Loan Documents (including pursuant to a valid waiver or consent), to the extent all Liens required to be granted in such Collateral pursuant to Section 4.13 after giving effect to such transaction have been granted, (ii) any property subject to a Lien permitted hereunder in reliance upon subsection 5.1(h) or (i) and (iii) all of the Collateral and all Credit Parties, upon (A) termination of the Revolving Loan Commitments, (B) payment and satisfaction in full of all Loans, all L/C Reimbursement Obligations and all other Obligations under the Loan Documents that the Agent has been notified in writing are then due and payable, (C) deposit of cash collateral with respect to all contingent Obligations (or, in the case of any Letter of Credit Obligation, receipt by the Agent of a back-up letter of credit) in amounts and on terms and conditions and with parties satisfactory to the Agent and each Indemnitee that is, or may be, owed such Obligations and (D) to the extent requested by the Agent, receipt by the Agent and the Secured Parties of liability releases from the Credit Parties each in form and substance acceptable to the Agent.

Each Lender and L/C Issuer hereby directs the Agent, and the Agent hereby agrees, upon five days advance notice from the Borrower Representative (or such shorter period as the Agent shall agree), to execute and deliver or file such documents and to perform other actions reasonably necessary to release the guaranties and Liens when and as directed in this Section 8.10.

8.11 Additional Secured Parties. The benefit of the provisions of the Loan Documents directly relating to the Collateral or any Lien granted thereunder shall extend to and be available to any Secured Party that is not a Lender or L/C Issuer party hereto as long as, by accepting such benefits, such Secured Party agrees, as among the Agent and all other Secured Parties, that such Secured Party is bound by (and, if requested by the Agent, shall confirm such agreement in a writing in form and substance acceptable to the Agent) this Article VIII, Section 9.3, Section 9.9, Section 9.10, Section 9.11, Section 9.17, Section 9.24 and Section 10.1 and the decisions and actions of the Agent and the Required Lenders (or, where expressly required by the terms of this Agreement, a greater proportion of the Lenders or other parties hereto as required herein) to the same extent a Lender is bound; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) such Secured Party shall be bound by Section 8.8 only to the extent of Liabilities, costs and expenses with respect to or otherwise relating to the Collateral held for the benefit of such Secured Party, in which case the obligations of such Secured Party thereunder shall not be limited by any concept of pro rata share or similar concept, (b) each of the Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers party hereto shall be entitled to act at its sole discretion, without regard to the interest of such Secured Party, regardless of whether any Obligation

to such Secured Party thereafter remains outstanding, is deprived of the benefit of the Collateral, becomes unsecured or is otherwise affected or put in jeopardy thereby, and without any duty or liability to such Secured Party or any such Obligation and (c) except as otherwise set forth herein, such Secured Party shall not have any right to be notified of, consent to, direct, require or be heard with respect to, any action taken or omitted in respect of the Collateral or under any Loan Document.

Furthermore, each of each Borrower and each other Credit Party executing this Agreement waives and agrees

not to assert against any Indemnitee, and shall cause each other Credit Party to waive and not assert against any Indemnitee, any right of contribution with respect to any Liabilities that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any Related Person.

(b) Without limiting the foregoing, “Indemnified Matters” includes all Environmental Liabilities, including those arising from, or otherwise involving, any property of any Credit Party or any Related Person of any Credit Party or any actual, alleged or prospective damage to property or natural resources or harm or injury alleged to have resulted from any Release of Hazardous Materials on, upon or into such property or natural resource or any property on or contiguous to any real property of any Credit Party or any Related Person or any Credit Party, whether or not, with respect to any such Environmental Liabilities, any Indemnitee is a mortgagee pursuant to any leasehold mortgage, a mortgagee in possession, the successor-in-interest to any Credit Party or any Related Person of any Credit Party or the owner, lessee or operator of any property of any Related Person through any foreclosure action, in each case except to the extent such Environmental Liabilities (i) are incurred solely following foreclosure by the Agent or following the Agent or any Lender having become the successor-in-interest to any Credit Party or any Related Person of any Credit Party and (ii) are attributable solely to acts of such Indemnitee.

9.7 Marshaling; Payments Set Aside. No Secured Party shall be under any obligation to marshal any property in favor of any Credit Party or any other Person or against or in payment of any Obligation. To the extent that the Secured Party receives a payment from a Borrower, from any other Credit Party, from the proceeds of the Collateral, from the exercise of its rights of setoff, any enforcement action or otherwise, and such payment is subsequently, in whole or in part, invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, then to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not occurred.

9.8 Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided that any assignment by any Lender shall be subject to the provisions of Section 9.9 hereof, and provided further that no Borrower may assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Agent and each Lender.

9.9 Assignments and Participations; Binding Effect.

(a) This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by ITG, the Borrowers, the other Credit Parties signatory hereto and the Agent and when the Agent shall have been notified by each Lender and the initial L/C Issuer that such Lender or L/C Issuer has executed it. Thereafter, it shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of, but only to the benefit of, ITG, the Borrowers, the other Credit Parties hereto (in each case except for Article VIII), the Agent, each Lender and L/C Issuer party hereto and, to the extent provided in Section 8.11, each other Secured Party

and, in each case, their respective successors and permitted assigns. Except as expressly provided in any Loan Document (including in Section 8.9), none of ITG, any Borrower, any other Credit Party, any L/C Issuer or the Agent shall have the right to assign any rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein.

(b) Each Lender may sell, transfer, negotiate or assign (a “Sale”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations hereunder (including all or a portion of its Commitments and its rights and obligations with respect to Loans and Letters of Credit) to (i) any existing Lender, (ii) any Affiliate or Approved Fund of any existing Lender or (iii) any other Person acceptable (which acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to the Agent and, as long as no Event of Default is continuing, the Borrower Representative; provided, however, that for each Loan, the aggregate outstanding principal amount (determined as of the effective date of the applicable Assignment) of the Loans, Commitments and Letter of Credit Obligations subject to any such Sale shall be in a minimum amount of $10,000,000, unless such Sale is made to an existing Lender or an Affiliate or Approved Fund of any existing Lender, is of the assignor’s (together with its Affiliates and Approved Funds) entire interest in such Loans, Commitments and Letter of Credit Obligations, or is made with the prior consent of the Borrower Representative and the Agent.

(c) The parties to each Sale made in reliance on clause (b) above (other than those described in clause (e) or (f) below) shall execute and deliver to the Agent (which shall keep a copy thereof) an Assignment, together with any existing Note subject to such Sale (or any affidavit of loss therefor acceptable to the Agent), any tax forms required to be delivered pursuant to Section 10.1 and payment by the assignee of an assignment fee in the amount of $3,500 (unless waived by the Agent in its sole discretion). Upon receipt of all the foregoing, and conditioned upon such receipt and upon the Agent consenting to such Assignment (if required), from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment, the Agent shall record or cause to be recorded in the Register the information contained in such Assignment.

(d) Effective upon the entry of such record in the Register, (i) such assignee shall become a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations under the Loan Documents have been assigned to such assignee pursuant to such Assignment, shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender, (ii) any applicable Note shall be transferred to such assignee through such entry and (iii) the assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations under this Agreement have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment, relinquish its rights (except for those surviving the termination of the Commitments and the payment in full of the Obligations) and be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents, other than those relating to events or circumstances occurring prior to such assignment (and, in the case of an Assignment covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto).

(f) In addition to the other rights provided in this Section 9.9, each Lender may, (x) with notice to the Agent, grant to an SPV the option to make all or any part of any Loan that such Lender would otherwise be required to make hereunder (and the exercise of such option by such SPV and the making of Loans pursuant thereto shall satisfy the obligation of such Lender to make such Loans hereunder) and such SPV may assign to such Lender the right to receive payment with respect to any Obligation and (y) without notice to or consent from the Agent or the Borrowers, sell participations to one or more Persons in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents (including all its rights and obligations with respect to the Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit); provided, however, that, whether as a result of any term of any Loan Document or of such grant or participation, (i) no such SPV or participant shall have a commitment, or be deemed to have made an offer to commit, to make Loans hereunder, and, except as provided in the applicable option agreement, none shall be liable for any obligation of such Lender hereunder, (ii) such Lender’s rights and obligations, and the rights and obligations of the Credit Parties and the Secured Parties towards such Lender, under any Loan Document shall remain unchanged and each other party hereto shall continue to deal solely with such Lender, which shall remain the holder of the Obligations in the Register, except that (A) each such participant and SPV shall be entitled to the benefit of Article X, but, with respect to Section 10.1, only to the extent such participant or SPV delivers the tax forms such Lender is required to collect pursuant to subsection 10.1(f) and then only to the extent of any amount to which such Lender would be entitled in the absence of any such grant or participation and (B) each such SPV may receive other payments that would otherwise be made to such Lender with respect to Loans funded by such SPV to the extent provided in the applicable option agreement and set forth in a notice provided to the Agent by such SPV and such Lender, provided, however, that in no case (including pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above) shall an SPV or participant have the right to enforce any of the terms of any Loan Document, and (iii) the consent of such SPV or participant shall not be required (either directly, as a restraint on such Lender’s ability to consent hereunder or otherwise) for any amendments, waivers or consents with respect to any Loan Document or to exercise or refrain from exercising any powers or rights such Lender may have under or in respect of the Loan Documents (including the right to enforce or direct enforcement of the Obligations), except for those described in clauses (ii) and (iii) of subsection 9.1(a) with respect to amounts, or dates fixed for payment of amounts, to which such participant or SPV would otherwise be entitled and, in the case of participants, except for those described in clause (vi) of subsection 9.1(a).

proceeding, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper of such SPV; provided, however, that each Lender having designated an SPV as such agrees to indemnify each Indemnitee against any Liability that may be incurred by, or asserted against, such Indemnitee as a result of failing to institute such proceeding (including a failure to get reimbursed by such SPV for any such Liability). The agreement in the preceding sentence shall survive the termination of the Commitments and the payment in full of the Obligations.

authorized, without notice or demand (each of which is hereby waived by each Credit Party), at any time and from time to time during the continuance of any Event of Default and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (whether general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other Indebtedness, claims or other obligations at any time owing by the Agent, such Lender, such L/C Issuer or any of their respective Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of the US Borrowers or any other US Credit Party against any Obligation of any US Credit Party now or hereafter existing, or of the UK Borrower or any other Foreign Credit Party against any Obligation of any Foreign Credit Party now or hereafter existing, in either case whether or not any demand was made under any Loan Document with respect to such Obligation and even though such Obligation may be unmatured. Each of the Agent, each Lender and each L/C Issuer agrees promptly to notify the Borrower Representative and the Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Lender or its Affiliates; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

9.22 Replacement of Lender. Within forty-five days after: (i) receipt by the Borrower Representative of written notice and demand from any Lender (an “Affected Lender”) for payment of additional costs as provided in Sections 10.1, 10.3 and/or 10.6; (ii) any default by a Lender in its obligation to make Loans hereunder after all conditions thereto have been satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, provided such default shall not have been cured; or (iii) any failure by any Lender to consent to a requested amendment, waiver or modification to any Loan Document in which the Required Lenders have already consented to such amendment, waiver or modification but the consent of each Lender (or each Lender directly affected thereby, as applicable) is required with respect thereto, the Borrowers may, at their option, notify the Agent and such Affected Lender (or such defaulting or non-consenting Lender, as the case may be) of the Borrowers’ intention to obtain, at the Borrowers’ expense, a replacement Lender (“Replacement Lender”) for such Affected Lender (or such defaulting or non-consenting Lender, as the case may be), which Replacement Lender shall be a Lender or otherwise be reasonably satisfactory to the Agent. In the event the Borrowers obtain a Replacement Lender within forty-five (45) days following notice of its intention to do so, the Affected Lender (or defaulting or non-consenting Lender, as the case may be) shall sell and assign its Loans and Commitments to such Replacement Lender, at par, provided that the Borrowers have reimbursed such Affected Lender for its increased costs for which it is entitled to reimbursement under this Agreement through the date of such sale and assignment.

(b) The obligation of a Borrower in respect of any sum due in the Original Currency from it to any Secured Party hereunder or under the Notes held by such Secured Party shall, notwithstanding any judgment in any Other Currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Secured Party of any sum adjudged to be so due in such Other Currency such Secured Party may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Original Currency with such Other Currency; if the amount of the Original Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Secured Party in the Original Currency, such Borrowers agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Secured Party against such loss, and if the amount of the Original Currency so purchased exceeds the sum originally due to any Secured Party in the Original Currency, such Secured Party agrees to remit to such Borrowers such excess.

ARTICLE X—TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

10.1 Taxes.

(a) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 10.1, each payment by any Credit Party under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, stamp and other duties, value added taxes, charges or withholdings and all liabilities with respect thereto (and without deduction or withholding for or on account of any of them) in any jurisdiction (collectively, but excluding the taxes set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) below, the “Taxes”) other than for (i) taxes measured by net income (including branch profits taxes) and franchise taxes imposed in lieu of net income taxes, in each case imposed on any Secured Party as a result of a present or former connection between such Person and the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such tax or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (other than such connection arising solely from any Secured Party having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, any Loan Document) or (ii) taxes that are directly attributable to the failure (other than as a result of a change in any Requirement of Law) by the Agent or any Lender to deliver the documentation required to be delivered pursuant to clause (f) below.

(b) If any accounts for or on account of Taxes shall be required by law to be deducted or withheld from or in respect of any amount payable under any Loan Document to any Secured Party or if Taxes are payable by any Secured Party on such amounts (i) such amount shall be increased as necessary to ensure that, after all required deductions, withholdings or payment of Taxes are made (including deductions, withholdings or Taxes applicable to any increases to any amount under this Section 10.1), such Secured Party receives the amount it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made or such Taxes been payable, (ii) the relevant Credit Party shall make such deductions or withholdings, (iii) the relevant Credit Party shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant taxing authority or other authority in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law and (iv) within 30 days after such payment is made, the relevant Credit Party shall deliver to the Agent an original or certified copy of a receipt evidencing such payment; provided, however, that no such increase shall be made with respect to, and no Credit Party shall be required to indemnify any Secured Party pursuant to clause (d) below for, withholding taxes to the extent that the obligation to withhold amounts existed on the date that such Person became a “Secured Party” under this Agreement in the capacity under which such Person makes a claim under this clause (b), except in each case to the extent such Person is a direct or indirect assignee (other than pursuant to Section 9.22) of any other Secured Party that was entitled, at the time the assignment to such Person became effective, to receive additional amounts under this clause (b).

(c) In addition, the Borrowers agree to pay, and authorize the Agent to pay in their name, any stamp, documentary, excise or property tax, charges or similar levies imposed by any applicable Requirement of Law or Governmental Authority and all Liabilities with respect thereto (including by reason of any delay in payment thereof), in each case arising from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, any Loan Document or any transaction contemplated therein (collectively, “Other Taxes”). The Swingline Lender may, without any need for notice, demand or consent from the Borrowers or the Borrower Representative, by making funds available to the Agent in the amount equal to any such payment, make a Swing Loan to the US Borrowers in such amount, the proceeds of which shall be used by the Agent in whole to make such payment on behalf of the Borrower. Within 30 days after the date of any payment of any amounts under this Section 10.1 by any Credit Party, the Borrowers shall furnish to the Agent, at its address referred to in Section 9.2, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof to the extent that payment was not made to a Secured Party.

(d) The Borrowers shall reimburse and indemnify, within 30 days after receipt of demand therefor (with copy to the Agent), each Secured Party for all Taxes and Other Taxes (including any Taxes and Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 10.1) paid by such Secured Party and any Liabilities arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. A certificate of the Secured Party (or of the Agent on behalf of such Secured Party) claiming any compensation under this clause (d), setting forth the amounts to be paid thereunder and delivered to the Borrower Representative with a copy to the Agent, shall be conclusive, binding and final for all purposes, absent manifest error. In determining such amount, the Agent and such Secured Party may use any just and reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

(e) Any Lender claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 10.1 shall use its reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policies and Requirements of Law) to change the jurisdiction of its lending office if such a change would reduce any such additional amounts (or any similar amount that may thereafter accrue) and would not, in the sole determination of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

(f) (i) Each Non-US Lender Party that, at any of the following times, is entitled to an exemption from United States withholding tax or, after a change in any Requirement of Law, is subject to such withholding tax at a reduced rate under an applicable tax treaty, shall (w) on or prior to the date such Non-US Lender Party becomes a “Non-US Lender Party” hereunder, (x) on or prior to the date on which any such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete, (y) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form or certification previously delivered by it pursuant to this clause (i) and (z) from time to time if requested by the Borrower Representative or the Agent (or, in the case of a participant or SPV, the relevant Lender), provide the Agent and the Borrower Representative (or, in the case of a participant or SPV, the relevant Lender) with two completed originals of each of the following, as applicable: (A) Forms W-8ECI (claiming exemption from US withholding tax because

the income is effectively connected with a US trade or business), W-8BEN (claiming exemption from, or a reduction of, US withholding tax under an income tax treaty) and/or W-8IMY or any successor forms, (B) in the case of a Non-US Lender Party claiming exemption under Sections 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, Form W-8BEN (claiming exemption from US withholding tax under the portfolio interest exemption) or any successor form and a certificate in form and substance acceptable to the Agent that such Non-US Lender Party is not (1) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (2) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrowers within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code or (3) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code or (C) any other applicable document prescribed by the IRS certifying as to the entitlement of such Non-US Lender Party to such exemption from United States withholding tax or reduced rate with respect to all payments to be made to such Non-US Lender Party under the Loan Documents. Unless the Borrower Representative and the Agent have received forms or other documents satisfactory to them indicating that payments under any Loan Document to or for a Non-US Lender Party are not subject to United States withholding tax or are subject to such tax at a rate reduced by an applicable tax treaty, the Credit Parties and the Agent shall withhold amounts required to be withheld by applicable Requirements of Law from such payments at the applicable statutory rate.

(ii) Each US Lender Party shall (A) on or prior to the date such US Lender Party becomes a “US Lender Party” hereunder, (B) on or prior to the date on which any such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete, (C) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form or certification previously delivered by it pursuant to this clause (f) and (D) from time to time if requested by the Borrower Representative or the Agent (or, in the case of a participant or SPV, the relevant Lender), provide the Agent and the Borrower Representative (or, in the case of a participant or SPV, the relevant Lender) with two completed originals of Form W-9 (certifying that such US Lender Party is entitled to an exemption from US backup withholding tax) or any successor form.

(iii) Each Lender having sold a participation in any of its Obligations or identified an SPV as such to the Agent shall collect from such participant or SPV the documents described in this clause (f) and provide them to the Agent.

(g) All amounts set out in, or expressed to be payable under, a Loan Document by a Credit Party which (in whole or in part) constitute consideration for a supply for value added tax purposes shall be deemed to be exclusive of any value added tax which is chargeable on such a supply and, accordingly, if value added tax is chargeable on any supply made to a Credit Party under a Loan Document, that Credit Party shall pay to the relevant Person an amount equal to the amount of such value added tax in addition to the underlying amount upon the relevant Person providing a valid value added tax invoice to that Credit Party. Where a Loan Document requires the Credit Party to reimburse any Person for any costs or expenses or similar amounts, the Credit Party shall also at the same time pay and indemnify the relevant Person against all value added tax incurred by the relevant Person in respect of the costs or expenses or similar amounts to the extent that the relevant Person reasonably determines that neither it nor any other member of any group of which it is a member for value added tax purposes is entitled to credit or repayment from the relevant tax authority in respect of the value added tax.

10.2 Illegality. If after the date hereof any Lender shall determine that the introduction of any Requirement of Law, or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or administration thereof, has made it unlawful, or that any central bank or other Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Lending Office to make LIBOR Rate Loans, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrowers through the Agent, the obligation of that Lender to make LIBOR Rate Loans shall be suspended until such Lender shall have notified the Agent and the Borrower Representative that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exists.

(a) Subject to clause (c) below, if any Lender shall determine that it is unlawful to maintain any LIBOR Rate Loan, the Borrowers shall prepay in full all LIBOR Rate Loans of such Lender then outstanding, together with interest accrued thereon, either on the last day of the Interest Period thereof if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Rate Loans, together with any amounts required to be paid in connection therewith pursuant to Section 10.4.

(b) If the obligation of any Lender to make or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans has been terminated, the Borrower Representative may elect, by giving notice to such Lender through the Agent that all Loans which would otherwise be made by any such Lender as LIBOR Rate Loans shall be instead Base Rate Loans.

(c) Before giving any notice to the Agent pursuant to this Section 10.2, the affected Lender shall designate a different Lending Office with respect to its LIBOR Rate Loans if such designation will avoid the need for giving such notice or making such demand and will not, in the judgment of the Lender, be illegal or otherwise disadvantageous to the Lender.

10.3 Increased Costs and Reduction of Return.

(a) If any Lender or L/C Issuer shall determine that, due to either (i) the introduction of, or any change in, or in the interpretation of, any law or regulation or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), in the case of either clause (i) or (ii) subsequent to the date hereof, there shall be any increase in the cost to such Lender or L/C Issuer of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any LIBOR Rate Loans or of issuing or maintain any Letter of Credit, then the Borrowers shall be liable for, and shall from time to time, within thirty (30) days of demand therefor by such Lender or L/C Issuer (with a copy of such demand to the Agent), pay to the Agent for the account of such Lender or L/C Issuer, additional amounts as are sufficient to compensate such Lender or L/C Issuer for such increased costs; provided, that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate any Lender or L/C Issuer pursuant to this Section 10.3 for any increased costs incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that

such Lender or L/C Issuer notifies the Borrower Representative, in writing of the increased costs and of such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s intention to claim compensation thereof; provided, further, that if the circumstance giving rise to such increased costs is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

(b) If any Lender or L/C Issuer shall have determined that:

(i) the introduction of any Capital Adequacy Regulation;

10.5 Inability to Determine Rates. If the Agent shall have determined in good faith that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBOR Rate Loan or that the LIBOR applicable pursuant to subsection 1.3(a) for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBOR Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of funding such Loan, the Agent will forthwith give notice of such determination to the Borrower Representative and each Lender.

Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower Representative may revoke any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation then submitted by it.

10.6 Reserves on LIBOR Rate Loans. The Borrowers shall pay to each Lender, as long as such Lender shall be required under regulations of the Federal Reserve Board to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits (currently known as “Eurocurrency liabilities”), additional costs on the unpaid principal amount of each LIBOR Rate Loan equal to actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error), payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan provided the Borrower Representative shall have received at least fifteen (15) days’ prior written notice (with a copy to the Agent) of such additional interest from the Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice fifteen (15) days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such

additional interest shall be payable fifteen (15) days from receipt of such notice; provided that no Lender shall make a claim for any such additional insurance more than 180 days after such Lender has knowledge of such additional interest.

10.7 Certificates of Lenders. Any Lender claiming reimbursement or compensation pursuant to this Article X shall deliver to the Borrower Representative (with a copy to the Agent) a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the amount payable to such Lender hereunder and such certificate shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers in the absence of manifest error.

(b) The Agreement. The words “hereof”, “herein”, “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall refer to this Agreement or such other Loan Document as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement or such other Loan Document; and subsection, section, schedule and exhibit references are to this Agreement or such other Loan Documents unless otherwise specified.
