(c) [Reserved].

Section 2.2 Manner of Borrowing and Disbursement.

(a) Choice of Interest Rate, Etc.  (i)  Any Loan shall, at the option of Duratek, bear interest as a Base Rate Loan, or, subject to Section 2.2(a)(ii) and Article 10 hereof, a Eurodollar Loan.  Any notice given to the Administrative Agent in connection with a requested Loan hereunder shall be given to the Administrative Agent prior to 12:30 p.m. (New York time) in order for such Business Day to count toward the minimum number of Business Days required.

(ii) (A)  On the date on which the aggregate unpaid principal amount of any Eurodollar Loan shall be reduced, by payment or prepayment or otherwise, to less than $5,000,000, such Eurodollar Loan shall automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, be continued as a Base Rate Loan.

(B) If Duratek shall fail to select the duration of any Interest Period for any Eurodollar Loan in accordance with the provisions contained in the definition of “Interest Period” in Section 1.1, the Administrative Agent will forthwith so notify Duratek and the Lenders which have made such Eurodollar Loan, whereupon each such Eurodollar Loan shall automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, be continued as a Base Rate Loan.

(C) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default, (1) each Eurodollar Loan will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, be continued as a Base Rate Loan, and (2) the obligation of the Lenders to continue any Eurodollar Loan shall be suspended.

(b) Base Rate Loans.

(i) Initial Loans.  The initial Base Rate Loans were issued on the Original Agreement Date.

(ii) [Reserved].

(iii) Continuations of Base Rate Loans.  Upon at least one (1), with respect to items (B) and (C) of this sentence, or three (3), with respect to item (A) of this sentence, Business Days’ irrevocable prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, Duratek shall specify whether all or a portion of each Base Rate Loan outstanding on the related Payment Date (A) is to be continued in whole or in part as one

25

or more Eurodollar Loans for the Interest Period(s) selected, (B) is to be continued in whole or in part as one or more Base Rate Loans, or (C) is to be repaid and not reborrowed.

(c) Eurodollar Loans.

(i) Initial Loans.  Duratek shall give the Administrative Agent in the case of any initial Eurodollar Loan at least three (3) Business Days’ irrevocable prior written notice in the form of a Request for Loan or Request for Loan Eurodollar Basis, or telephonic notice followed immediately by a Request for Loan or Request for Loan Eurodollar Basis; provided, however, that Duratek’s failure to confirm any telephonic notice with a Request for Loan or Request for Loan Eurodollar Basis shall not invalidate any notice so given.  The Administrative Agent, whose determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error, shall determine the available Eurodollar Basis and shall notify Duratek of such Eurodollar Basis.  Duratek shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent by telephone or telecopy, and shall immediately confirm any such telephonic notice in writing, of its selection of a Eurodollar Basis and Interest Period for such Loan; provided, however, that Duratek’s failure to confirm any such telephonic notice in writing shall not invalidate any notice so given.

(ii) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to 2:30 p.m. (New York time) on the date of any Loan that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s ratable portion of such Loan, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made or will make such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Loan and the Administrative Agent may in its sole discretion and in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Duratek on such date a corresponding amount.  If and to the extent the Lender does not make such ratable portion available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to Duratek until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate for the first three (3) days and thereafter at the Federal Funds Rate plus one percent (1%).

(iii) If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such Lender’s portion of the applicable Loan for purposes of this Agreement.  If such Lender does not repay such corresponding amount immediately upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent shall notify Duratek and Duratek shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent, together with interest thereon.  The failure of any Lender to fund its portion of any Loan shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation

26

hereunder to fund its respective portion of the Loan on the date of such borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for any such failure of any other Lender.

(iv) In the event that, at any time when Duratek is not in Default and has satisfied all applicable conditions set forth in Article 3 hereof, a Lender for any reason fails, refuses, or has given notice to the Administrative Agent and/or Duratek that it refuses to fund its portion of a Loan (a “Defaulting Lender”), then, until such time as such Defaulting Lender has funded its portion of such Loan, or all other Lenders have received payment in full (whether by repayment or prepayment) of the principal and interest due in respect of such Loan, such Defaulting Lender shall not have the right (i) to vote regarding any issue on which voting is required or advisable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and such Lender’s interest in any Loans shall not be counted as outstanding for purposes of determining “Majority Lenders” hereunder or (ii) to receive payments of principal, interest or fees from Duratek in respect of its unfunded portion of Loans.  The provisions of this Section 2.2(e)(iv) are not in lieu of any other claim Duratek may have against such Defaulting Lender.

Section 2.3 Interest.

(a) On Base Rate Loans.  Interest on each Base Rate Loan shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365/366 days for the actual number of days elapsed and shall be payable at the Base Rate Basis for such Base Rate Loan, in arrears on the applicable Payment Date for the period through the date immediately preceding such Payment Date.  Interest on Base Rate Loans then outstanding shall also be due and payable on the Maturity Date.

(b) On Eurodollar Loans.  Interest on each Eurodollar Loan shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed and shall be payable at the Eurodollar Basis for such Eurodollar Loan, in arrears on the applicable Payment Date for the period through the day immediately preceding such Payment Date, and, in addition, if the Interest Period for a Eurodollar Loan exceeds three (3) months, interest on such Eurodollar Loan shall also be due and payable in arrears on every three-month anniversary of the first day of such Interest Period.  Interest on Eurodollar Loans then outstanding shall also be due and payable on the Maturity Date.

(c) Interest if No Notice of Selection of Interest Rate Basis.  With respect to any Loan, if Duratek fails to give the Administrative Agent timely notice of its selection of a Eurodollar Basis, or if for any reason a determination of a Eurodollar Basis for any Loan is not timely concluded, the Base Rate Basis shall apply to such Loan.

(d) Interest upon Default.  Immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder, all overdue principal in respect of the Loans, together with accrued and unpaid overdue interest, premium and other unpaid sums, shall bear interest at the Default Rate.  Such interest shall be payable on demand and shall accrue until the earliest of (a) waiver or cure (to the satisfaction of the Lenders required under Section 11.12 hereof to waive or cure) of such Event of Default, or (b) agreement by the Majority Lenders to rescind the charging of interest at the Default Rate, or (c) payment in full of the Obligations.

(e) Eurodollar Loans.  At no time may the number of outstanding Eurodollar Loans exceed eight (8).

(f) Applicable Margin.  The Applicable Margin shall be (i) 2.50% for Eurodollar Loans (or 2.00% when the Leverage Ratio as of the most recently completed fiscal quarter is less than 2.0 to 1.0) and (ii) 1.25% for Base Rate Loans (or 1.00% when the Leverage Ratio as of the most recently completed fiscal quarter is less than 2.0 to 1.0).

Section 2.8 Mandatory Prepayments.

(a) In addition to the scheduled repayments provided for in Section 2.4 hereof, Duratek shall prepay the Loans in an amount equal to 100% of the Net Proceeds (w) from any sale or disposition by Duratek or any of its Subsidiaries of any interest in any Loan Party (other than from a sale to another Loan Party), (x) except as set forth below, from any Permitted Asset Sales by Duratek or any of its Subsidiaries (other than any Excluded Asset Sales) and (y) except as set forth in Section 5.5(e) hereof, received by Duratek or any of its Subsidiaries as a result of a casualty or condemnation; provided that if EnergySolutions is a Subsidiary of Duratek, each reference to Duratek and/or its Subsidiaries shall include Parent and/or its Subsidiaries.  Such amount shall be applied on the third Business Day following receipt thereof by Duratek or the affected Subsidiary in accordance with Section 2.6(b).  Duratek shall also prepay the Loans, with application thereto in accordance with Section 2.6(b), in respective amounts equal to the after-Tax amount of any refund, purchase price adjustment, claim or credit arising under any agreement governing or relating to any acquisition of any assets or business.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Net Proceeds realized or received with respect to any Permitted Asset Sales (other than any Excluded Asset Sales), at the option of Duratek, and so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Duratek may reinvest all or any portion of such Net Proceeds in

Section 2.10 Manner of Payment.

(a) Each payment (including any prepayment) by Duratek on account of the principal of or interest on the Loans, commitment fees and any other amount owed to the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or any of them under this Agreement shall be made not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date specified for payment under this Agreement to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Account, for the account of the Lenders, or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in lawful money of the United States of America in immediately available funds without set-off or counterclaim.  Any payment received by the Administrative Agent after 2:00 p.m. (New York time) shall be deemed received on the next Business Day.  Receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment hereunder at or prior to 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on any Business Day shall be deemed to constitute receipt on such Business Day.  In the case of a payment for the account of a Lender, the Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter (and, if such amount is received before 2:00 p.m. (New York time), on the same day) distribute the amount so received in like funds to such Lender.  If the Administrative Agent shall not have received any payment from Duratek as and when due, the Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders accordingly.  Only upon its acceptance of an Assignment and Acceptance and recording of the information contained therein in the Register pursuant to Section 11.5(c), from and after the effective date of such Assignment and Acceptance, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments hereunder and under the Notes in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Lender assignee thereunder, and the parties to such Assignment and Acceptance shall make all appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such effective date directly between themselves.

(b) Duratek agrees to pay principal, interest, fees and all other Obligations due hereunder, under the Fee Letter, under any Notes or under the other Loan Documents without set-off or counterclaim or any deduction whatsoever (other than any deductions or withholdings required by law on account of Taxes).

30

(c) Prior to the acceleration of the Loans under Section 8.2 hereof, if some but less than all amounts due from Duratek are received by the Administrative Agent with respect to the Obligations, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such amounts in the following order of priority:

(i) first, to the payment of all of the fees, indemnification payments, costs and expenses that are due and payable to the Administrative Agent (solely in its capacity as the Administrative Agent) under or in respect of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such fees, indemnification payments, costs and expenses owing to the Administrative Agent on such date;

(ii) second, to the payment of all of the indemnification payments, costs and expenses that are due and payable to the Lenders under or in respect of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such indemnification payments, costs and expenses owing to the Lenders on such date.

(iii) third, to the payment of fees and all of the accrued and unpaid interest and any premiums on the Obligations of Duratek under or in respect of the Loan Documents that is due and payable to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such interest owing to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders on such date;

(iv) fourth, ratably to the payment of the principal amount of all of the outstanding Loans that is due and payable to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such principal owing to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders on such date and amounts payable under Secured Hedge Agreements with Lenders and/or their Affiliates (or Persons that were Lenders or Affiliates of Lenders at the time any such Secured Hedge Agreement was entered into);

(v) fifth, to the payment of all other Secured Obligations of the Loan Parties owing under or in respect of the Loan Documents or Secured Hedge Agreements that are due and payable to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such Secured Obligations owing to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties on such date; and

(vi) sixth, the balance, if any, to the person lawfully entitled thereto (including the applicable Loan Party or its successors or assigns) or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

(d) If the Administrative Agent receives funds for application to the Obligations of the Loan Parties under or in respect of the Loan Documents under circumstances for which the Loan Documents do not specify the Loans to which, or the manner in which, such funds are to be applied, the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, in the case of the Loans, for application to such principal repayment installments thereof, as the Administrative Agent shall direct, and in other cases, elect to, distribute such funds to each of the Lenders in accordance with such Lender’s pro rata share of the aggregate principal amount of the Loans outstanding at such time, in repayment or prepayment of such of the outstanding Loans or other Obligations then owing to such Lender.

(e) Subject to any contrary provisions in the definition of “Interest Period,” if any payment under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents is specified to be made on a day which is not a Business Day, it shall be made on the next Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in computing interest and fees, if any, in connection with such payment; provided, however, that,

31

if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurodollar Loans to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day.

(f) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from Duratek prior to the date on which any payment is due to any Lender hereunder that Duratek will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that Duratek has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each such Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender.  If and to the extent Duratek shall not have so made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate.

Section 2.11 Reimbursement.

(a) Whenever any Lender shall sustain or incur any losses or out-of-pocket expenses in connection with (i) failure by Duratek to borrow any Eurodollar Loan after having given notice of its intention to borrow in accordance with Section 2.2 hereof (whether by reason of Duratek’s election not to proceed or the non-fulfillment of any of the conditions set forth in Article 3), or (ii) payment of any Eurodollar Loan in whole or in part pursuant to Section 2.2(a)(ii), 2.6, 2.8 or 10.2, acceleration of the maturity of the Loans pursuant to Section 8.2 or for any other reason, Duratek agrees to pay to such Lender, upon demand, an amount sufficient to compensate such Lender for all such losses and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses.  Such Lender’s good faith determination of the amount of such losses or out-of-pocket expenses, as set forth in writing pursuant to Section 2.11(b) hereof, and accompanied by calculations in reasonable detail demonstrating the basis for its demand, shall be presumptively correct, absent manifest error.

(b) Losses subject to reimbursement hereunder shall be (i) any loss incurred by any Lender in connection with the re-employment of funds prepaid, repaid, not borrowed, or paid, as the case may be, and the amount of such loss shall be the excess, if any, of (1) the interest or other cost to such Lender of the deposit or other source of funding used to make any such Eurodollar Loan (but specifically excluding any Applicable Margin) for the remainder of its Interest Period, over (2) the interest earned (or to be earned) by such Lender upon the re-lending or other redeployment of the amount of such Eurodollar Loan for the remainder of its putative Interest Period or (ii) any other expenses incurred by any Lender or any participant of such Lender permitted hereunder in connection with the re-employment of funds prepaid, repaid, not borrowed, or paid, as the case may be.

For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 2.11 shall be construed to apply to Taxes that are neither Covered Taxes nor Other Taxes.

Section 2.12 Pro Rata Treatment.

(a) Loans.  Each Loan from the Lenders shall be made pro rata on the basis of the respective Commitments of the Lenders as set forth on Schedule 4 hereof.

(b) Payments.  Except as specifically provided in Section 2.2(e)(iv) or Article 10 hereof or elsewhere in this Agreement, each payment and prepayment of principal of the Loans and each payment of interest on the Loans, shall be made to the Lenders pro rata on the basis of their respective unpaid principal amounts outstanding immediately prior to such payment or prepayment.  If any Lender shall obtain any payment (whether involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) on account

32

of any Loans made by it in excess of its ratable share of such Loans, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from the other Lenders such interests (whether by purchasing a participation or by assignment) in the applicable Loans made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, such purchase from each Lender shall be rescinded and each such Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such recovery; provided further, however, that, so long as the Obligations under the Loan Documents shall not have been accelerated, any excess payment received by any Lender in respect of any Type of Loans shall be shared on a pro rata basis only with other Lenders to which Loans of such Type are owing.  Duratek agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 2.12(b) may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of Duratek in the amount of such participation.

Section 2.13 Capital Adequacy.

If, after the Agreement Date, the adoption or effectiveness of any Applicable Law regarding the capital adequacy of banks or bank holding companies, or any change or effectiveness in Applicable Law (whether adopted before or after the Agreement Date) or any change in the interpretation or administration or effectiveness thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by such Lender with any directive issued or adopted after the Agreement Date regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on any Lender’s capital, as a consequence of its obligations hereunder with respect to the Loans, to a level below that which it could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies with respect to capital adequacy immediately before such adoption, change or compliance and assuming that such Lender’s capital was fully utilized prior to such adoption, change or compliance) by an amount reasonably deemed by such Lender to be material, then such Lender shall promptly notify Duratek of such adoption, compliance or change.  Upon demand by such Lender, Duratek shall promptly pay to such Lender such additional amounts as shall be sufficient to compensate such Lender for such reduced return, together with interest on such amount from the fourth (4th) day after the date of demand until payment in full thereof at the Default Rate.  A certificate of such Lender setting forth the amount to be paid to such Lender by Duratek as a result of any event referred to in this paragraph and supporting calculations in reasonable detail shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.  For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 2.13 shall not apply to Taxes.

Section 2.14 Taxes.

(a) Subject to the exclusions and limitations of this Section 2.14 and subject to the Lenders’ compliance with Section 2.14(f), any and all payments by any Loan Party hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings (“Taxes”) imposed or assessed on or with respect to payments made under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents by the United States of America or any political subdivisions thereof or therein or any other jurisdiction (including non-U.S. jurisdictions), and all liabilities with respect hereto or thereto (but excluding any tax imposed on or measured by the net income or profits of a Lender or franchise taxes imposed in lieu of net income taxes on overall gross receipts, or any other similar taxes imposed, in each case, as a result of such Lender being organized in, having its principal office or applicable lending office in, engaging in a trade or business in, or having a present or former connection with the jurisdiction imposing such Tax (other than any such trade or business, or connection arising or deemed to arise solely or primarily from any

33

transactions contemplated by this Agreement) (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, fees, assessments or other charges being referred to collectively as “Covered Taxes”).

If any Loan Party shall be required by law to withhold or deduct any Covered Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document to any Lender, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions or withholdings on account of Covered Taxes (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.14(a)) such Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings of Covered Taxes been made, (ii) the applicable Loan Party shall make such deductions or withholdings, and (iii) the applicable Loan Party shall pay the full amount of Covered Taxes deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with Applicable Law.

(b) Duratek agrees to pay any present or future recordation, transfer, mortgage, stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies (including any interest and penalties related thereto) imposed by the United States of America or any political subdivision thereof or any other jurisdiction (including non U.S. jurisdictions) that arise from the execution, delivery, registration of, performance under, or enforcement of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

(c) Without duplication of its obligation to pay increased amounts on account of Covered Taxes and Other Taxes pursuant to Sections 2.14(a) and (b), respectively, Duratek shall indemnify each Lender for the full amount of Covered Taxes and Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Covered Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.14) paid by such Lender and any penalties, interest and expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Covered Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted.  Payment by Duratek pursuant to this indemnification shall be made within thirty (30) days from the date such Lender (as the case may be) makes written demand therefor (submitted through the Administrative Agent).  A Lender’s failure to provide notice to Duratek shall not relieve Duratek of any of its obligations under this Section 2.14.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, where notice is not given within one hundred twenty (120) days after the Lender has actual notice of the assertion of taxes and Duratek does not otherwise have notice of such assertion, no indemnification shall be required for penalties, additions to tax, expenses, and interest accruing on such Covered Taxes or Other Taxes from the date one hundred twenty (120) days after the Lender has actual notice of the assertion of such taxes until the date such notice was actually received by Duratek.

(d) Within thirty (30) days after the date of any payment of Covered Taxes or Other Taxes by the any Loan Party, such Loan Party shall furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in Section 11.1 hereof, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof.  The applicable Loan Party shall compensate each Lender to the extent that such Lender is required to pay any Covered Taxes or Other Taxes (or applicable penalties, interest and expenses) as a result of any failure by such Loan Party to so furnish such copy of such receipt.

(e) The agreements and obligations of the Loan Parties contained in this Section 2.14 shall survive the indefeasible payment in full of the Obligations.

(f) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, to the extent that such Person is at such time legally entitled to do so, on the date a Person becomes an Agent or Lender hereunder and at such other times as reasonably requested by Duratek or the Administrative Agent in writing, such Person must provide to Duratek and the Administrative Agent two properly completed and duly executed originals of each of the following, as applicable:  (i) Form W-8ECI (in the case of a non-U.S. Person claiming exemption from withholding because the income is effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business), (ii) Form W-8BEN (in the case of a non-U.S. Person claiming exemption from, or reduction

34

of, withholding tax under an income tax treaty or under the portfolio interest exemption), (iii) with respect to any interest in this Agreement in which a participation has been sold, a Form W-8IMY along with accompanying Form W-8BEN (claiming exemption from withholding under the portfolio interest exemption), (iv) any other applicable form, certificate or document necessary to establish such non-U.S. Person’s entitlement to exemption from United States federal withholding tax or reduced rate with respect to all payments to be made to such non-U.S. Person under this Agreement, or (v) Form W-9 (claiming exemption from backup withholding tax), or any successor forms.  Each Agent and Lender agrees that from time to time after the Original Agreement Date, when a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders the previous certification obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, such Agent or Lender will, to the extent that such Agent or Lender is at such time legally entitled to do so, deliver to Duratek and the Administrative Agent two new accurate and complete original signed copies of the applicable certification form.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.14, a Lender shall not be entitled to payment on account of or indemnification for Covered Taxes that are U.S. federal withholding Taxes that are imposed pursuant to a law in effect at the time such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement, except, in the case of an assignee to the extent that such Lender’s assignor (if any) was entitled, at the time of assignment, to receive additional amounts from the Loan Parties with respect to such Tax pursuant to Section 2.14(a) and a Lender shall not be entitled to a payment on account of or indemnification for such Covered Taxes to the extent such Taxes result from the failure of such Lender to comply with the documentation requirements of this Section 2.14(f).

(g) If the Administrative Agent or any Lender determines, in its good faith sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Covered Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by a Loan Party or with respect to which the Loan Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.14, it shall pay over such refund to such Loan Party (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Loan Party under this Section 2.14 with respect to the Covered Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of such Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant governmental authority with respect to such refund); provided, that the Loan Party, upon the request of such Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Loan Party to such Agent or such Lender in the event such Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such governmental authority.  This paragraph shall not be construed to require any Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the Loan Party or any other Person. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in no event will any Lender be required to pay any amount to a Loan Party the payment of which would place such Lender in a less favorable net after-tax position than such Lender would have been in if the additional amounts giving rise to such refund of any Covered Taxes or Other Taxes had never been paid.

(h) Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.14 (a), Section 2.14(c) or Section 10.3 with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by EnergySolutions, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another lending office for any Loans affected by such event with the object of avoiding the consequences of such event; provided, that such designation is made on terms that, in the good faith sole judgment of such Lender, cause such Lender and its lending office(s) to suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, and provided further that nothing in this Section 2.14 shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Loan Party or the rights of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.14(a), Section 2.14(c) or Section 10.3.

(a) Financial Condition Covenants.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 8.1, in the event that Parent fails to comply with the requirements of any covenants set forth in Section 7.7(a) or (b) (each, a “Financial Condition Covenant”), until the expiration of the 20th day subsequent to the date the certificate calculating such Financial Condition Covenant is required to be delivered pursuant to Section 6.3, Parent shall have the right to issue equity interests to the Equity Sponsors for cash, and, in each case, to contribute any such cash to the capital of EnergySolutions (collectively, the “Cure Right”), and upon the receipt by EnergySolutions of such cash (the “Cure Amount”) pursuant to the exercise by Parent of such Cure Right such Financial Condition Covenant shall be recalculated giving effect to the following pro forma adjustments:

72

(i) Operating Cash Flow shall be increased, solely for the purpose of measuring the Financial Condition Covenants and not for any other purpose under this Agreement, by an amount equal to the Cure Amount; and

(ii) If, after giving effect to the foregoing recalculations, Parent shall then be in compliance with the requirements of all Financial Condition Covenants, Parent shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements of the Financial Condition Covenants as of the relevant date of determination with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply therewith at such date, and the applicable breach or default of the Financial Condition Covenants which had occurred shall be deemed cured for all purposes of this Agreement.

Section 9.2 Interest Holders.

The Administrative Agent may treat each Lender, or the Person designated in the last notice filed with the Administrative Agent, whether under Section 11.1, Section 11.5 or otherwise hereunder, as the holder of all of the interests of such Lender in its Loans and Commitments until written notice of transfer, signed by such Lender (or the Person designated in the last notice filed with the Administrative Agent) and by the Person designated in such written notice of transfer, in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent.

Section 9.3 Consultation with Counsel.

The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall be under no duty to examine, inquire into or pass upon the validity, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any Note, any other Loan Document or any other instrument, document or communication furnished pursuant hereto or in connection herewith, and the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to assume (absent knowledge to the contrary) that they are valid, effective and genuine, have been signed or sent by the proper parties and are what they purport to be.

Section 9.5             CNAI and Affiliates.

With respect to its Commitments, the Loans made by it and the Notes issued to it, if any, CNAI shall have the same rights and powers under the Loan Documents as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent; and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include CNAI in its individual capacity.  CNAI and its affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, accept investment banking engagements from and generally engage in any kind of business with, any Loan Party, any of its Subsidiaries and any Person that may do business with or own securities of any Loan Party or any such Subsidiary, all as if CNAI was not an Agent and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.  No Agent shall have any duty to disclose any information obtained or received by it or any of its Affiliates relating to any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries to the extent such information was obtained or received in any capacity other than as such Agent.

Section 9.6             Responsibility of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent.

The duties and obligations of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent under this Agreement and the Security Documents are only those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the Security Documents.  The term “Agent” is used merely for convenience of reference, and the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall not, either as a result of the use of such term or for any other reason, have any duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent.  Each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to assume that no Default has occurred and is continuing unless it has actual knowledge, or has been notified by Duratek, of such fact or has been notified by a Lender in writing that such Lender considers that a Default has occurred and is continuing, and such Lender shall specify in detail the nature thereof in writing.  Each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall not be liable hereunder for any action taken or omitted to be taken except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.  The Administrative Agent shall provide promptly each Lender with copies of such documents received from Duratek in connection with this Agreement as such Lender may reasonably request.

Section 9.7             Collateral and Guaranty Matters.

(a)           The Collateral Agent, as collateral agent hereunder and under the Security Documents, is hereby authorized to act on behalf of the Secured Parties, in its own capacity and through other agents and sub-agents appointed by it with due care, under the Security Documents.  In connection with its role as secured party with respect to the Collateral hereunder, the Collateral Agent shall act as collateral agent, for itself and for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, and such role as Collateral Agent shall be disclosed on all appropriate accounts, certificates, filings, mortgages and other Collateral documentation.

74

(b)           The Lenders irrevocably authorize the Collateral Agent, at its option and in its discretion, and the Collateral Agent may, without further written consent or authorization from Lenders (subject to Section 11.12 hereof), and agrees with and for the benefit of Duratek that it shall execute any documents or instruments and take any further actions, in each case at the sole cost and expense of Duratek, necessary:

(i)      to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any Loan Document (A) upon termination of the Commitments and payment in full of all Secured Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations), (B) that is sold or transferred or to be sold or transferred as part of or in connection with any sale, or transferred in any liquidation or merger, in each case, permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or (C) subject to Section 11.12, if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Majority Lenders; or

(ii)     to release any Guarantor (other than Parent) from its obligations under the Guaranty if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder.

Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Majority Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s or the Collateral Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty pursuant to this Section 9.7.

Section 9.8             Action by the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent.

(a)           Each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to use its discretion with respect to exercising or refraining from exercising any rights which may be vested in it by, and with respect to taking or refraining from taking any action or actions which it may be able to take under or in respect of, this Agreement, unless the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall have been instructed by the Majority Lenders to exercise or refrain from exercising such rights or to take or refrain from taking such action.  Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall incur any liability under or in respect of this Agreement with respect to anything which it may do or refrain from doing in the reasonable exercise of its judgment or which may seem to it to be necessary or desirable in the circumstances for the protection of the interests of the Lenders, except for its gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final, non-appealable order of a court having jurisdiction over the subject matter.

(b)           In any event, neither the Collateral Agent nor the Administrative Agent shall be liable to the Lenders or to any Lender in acting or refraining from acting under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with the instructions of the Majority Lenders or of all the Lenders, where expressly required by this Agreement, and any action taken or failure to act pursuant to such instructions shall be binding on all Lenders.

Section 9.9             Notice of Default or Event of Default.

In the event that the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall acquire actual knowledge, or shall have been notified, of any Default (other than through a notice by one party hereto to all other parties), the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall take such action and assert such rights under this Agreement as the Majority Lenders or of all the Lenders, where expressly required by this Agreement, shall request in writing, and the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any liability by reason of its acting pursuant to any such request.  If the Majority Lenders shall fail to request the Administrative Agent to take action or to assert rights under

75

this Agreement in respect of any Default within ten (10) days after their receipt of the notice of any Default from the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or shall request inconsistent action with respect to such Default, the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to, take such action and assert such rights as it deems in its discretion to be advisable for the protection of the Lenders.

Section 9.10           Responsibility Disclaimed.

Each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall not be under any liability or responsibility whatsoever as agent:

(a)           to Duratek or any other Person as a consequence of any failure or delay in performance by or any breach by any Lender or Lenders of any of its or their obligations under this Agreement;

(b)           to any Lender or Lenders as a consequence of any failure or delay in performance by, or any breach by, (i) Duratek of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any Notes or any other Loan Document, or (ii) any Subsidiary or any other obligor under any other Loan Document;

(c)           to any Lender or Lenders, for any statements, representations or warranties in this Agreement, or any other document contemplated by this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any information provided pursuant to this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other document contemplated by this Agreement, or for the validity, effectiveness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement, any Notes, any other Loan Document or any other document contemplated by this Agreement;

(d)           to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of, or the perfection or priority of any lien or security interest created or purported to be created under or in connection with, any Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto; or

(e)           Under or in respect of any Loan Document by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by telegram, telecopy or telex) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties.

Section 9.11           Indemnification.

(a)           Each Lender severally agrees to indemnify each Agent (to the extent not promptly reimbursed by Duratek) from and against such Lender’s ratable share (determined as provided below) of any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by such Agent under the Loan Documents (collectively, the “Indemnified Costs”); provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction.  Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse each Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any costs and expenses (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of counsel) payable by Duratek under Section 11.2, to the extent that such Agent is not promptly reimbursed for such costs and expenses by Duratek.  In the case of any investigation, litigation or proceeding giving rise

76

to any Indemnified Costs, this Section 9.11 applies whether any such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Lender or any other Person.

(b)           [Reserved].

(c)           For purposes of this Section 9.11, the Lenders’ respective ratable shares of any amount shall be determined, with respect to any time deemed appropriate by such Agent, according to the aggregate principal amount of the Loans outstanding at such time and owing to the respective Lenders.  The failure of any Lender to reimburse any Agent, as the case may be, promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any amount required to be paid by the Lenders to such Agent, as the case may be, as provided herein shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to reimburse such Agent for its ratable share of such amount, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to reimburse such Agent for such other Lender’s ratable share of such amount.  Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of any Lender hereunder, the agreement and obligations of each Lender contained in this Section 9.11 shall survive the payment in full of principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.

Section 9.12           Credit Decision.

Each Lender represents and warrants to each other Lender, to each Agent and to the Administrative Agent that:

(a)           in making its decision to enter into this Agreement and to make its Loans it has independently taken whatever steps it considers necessary to evaluate the financial condition and affairs of EnergySolutions and its respective Subsidiaries and that it has made an independent credit judgment, and that it has not relied upon the Administrative Agent, any Agent or any other Lender, or information provided by the Administrative Agent (other than information provided to the Administrative Agent by EnergySolutions and forwarded by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders); and

(b)           so long as any portion of the Obligations remains outstanding, it will continue to make its own independent evaluation of the financial condition and affairs of EnergySolutions and its respective Subsidiaries.

Section 9.13           Successor Agents.

(a)           Resignation of Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice five days prior to the effective date of such resignation to the Lenders and Duratek.  Upon any such resignation, the Majority Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with Duratek, to appoint a successor Administrative Agent; provided that, at the time of the resignation of the Administrative Agent, no successor Administrative Agent has been appointed by the Majority Lenders, the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be any Lender or a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States of America or any political subdivision thereof which has combined capital and reserves in excess of $250,000,000.  Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges, duties and obligations of the retiring Administrative Agent and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents.  After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Administrative Agent.

77

(b)           Resignation of Collateral Agent.  The Collateral Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice of such resignation to the Lenders and Duratek.  Upon any such resignation, the Majority Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with Duratek, to appoint a successor Collateral Agent; provided that if, at the time of the resignation of the Administrative Agent, no successor Collateral Agent has been appointed by the Majority Lenders, the retiring Collateral Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Collateral Agent and, after its resignation and prior to the appointment of any successor Collateral Agent, the retiring Collateral Agent will act as a nominee for perfection with respect to the applicable Collateral.  Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Collateral Agent hereunder by a successor Collateral Agent, such successor Collateral Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges, duties and obligations of the retiring Collateral Agent and the retiring Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents.  After any retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation hereunder as Collateral Agent, the provisions of this Article shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Collateral Agent.

(c)           General.  If no successor agent shall have been appointed and shall have accepted such appointment prior to the resignation of the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, then the retiring Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall thereupon be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents and (iii) the Majority Lenders shall thereafter perform all duties of the retiring Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, under the Loan Documents until such time, if any, as the Majority Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, as provided above.  After any retiring agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent shall have become effective, the provisions of this Article 9 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, under this Agreement.

Section 9.14           Delegation of Duties.

The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under the Loan Documents by or through agents or attorneys selected by it using reasonable care, and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties.

Section 9.15           Additional Agents.

None of the Lenders or other entities identified on the facing page of, signature pages of or elsewhere in this Agreement as a “syndication agent,” “documentation agent,” “sole bookrunner” or “sole lead arranger” shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement or any other Loan Document other than those applicable to all Lenders as such.  Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Lenders so identified shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any other Lender.  Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any of the Lenders or other entities so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in taking or not taking action hereunder or thereunder.

Section 9.16           Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim.

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

78

(i)      to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.3 and 11.2) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

(ii)     to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.5 and 11.2.

(b)           Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.

Section 9.17           Security Documents.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each Lender also acknowledges that CNAI, Collateral Agent hereunder, is also acting as Collateral Agent under the EnergySolutions Credit Agreement, and in such dual capacities has entered into the Security Documents on behalf of both the Secured Parties hereunder as well as the secured parties under the EnergySolutions Credit Agreement, each Secured Party hereby waiving any actual or potential conflict or breach of duty created or existing as the result of such dual capacities and acknowledging that it has read the terms and conditions of the Security Documents and has accepted the same without reliance on any of the Agents.

ARTICLE 10.

Change in Circumstances
Affecting Fixed Rate Loans

Section 10.1           Eurodollar Basis Determination Inadequate or Unfair.

If, with respect to any proposed Eurodollar Loan for any Interest Period, the Administrative Agent determines after consultation with the Lenders that deposits in Dollars (in the applicable amount) are not being offered to each of the Lenders in the relevant market for such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to Duratek and the Lenders, whereupon until the Administrative Agent notifies Duratek that the circumstances giving rise to such situation no longer exist, the obligations of any affected Lender to make or continue Eurodollar Loans shall be suspended.

Section 10.2           Illegality.

If after the Agreement Date the adoption of any Applicable Law, or any change in any Applicable Law (whether adopted before or after the Agreement Date), or any change in interpretation or administration

79

thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender with any directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, shall make it unlawful or impossible, or any such governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency shall assert that it is unlawful, for any Lender to make, maintain or fund Eurodollar Loans, such Lender shall so notify the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the other Lenders and Duratek.  Before giving any notice to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 10.2, such Lender shall designate a different lending office if such designation will avoid the need for giving such notice and will not, in the sole judgment of such Lender, be otherwise materially disadvantageous to such Lender.  Upon receipt of such notice, notwithstanding anything contained in Article 2 hereof, (a) the obligation of the Lenders to make or continue Eurodollar Loans shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify Duratek and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist and (b) unless Duratek, within three (3) Business Days thereafter, converts all Eurodollar Loans into Base Rate Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, Duratek shall repay in full the then outstanding principal amount of each affected Eurodollar Loan of such Lender, together with accrued interest thereon and any reimbursement required under Section 2.11 hereof, on either (i) the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such affected Eurodollar Loans if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain and fund such Eurodollar Loans to such day or (ii) immediately if such Lender may not lawfully continue to fund and maintain such affected Eurodollar Loans to such day.  Concurrently with repaying each affected Eurodollar Loan of such Lender, notwithstanding anything contained in Article 2 or Article 3 hereof, Duratek may borrow a Base Rate Loan from such Lender, and such Lender shall make such Base Rate Loan, if so requested, in an amount such that the outstanding principal amount held by such Lender shall equal the outstanding principal amount immediately prior to such repayment.

Section 10.3 Increased Costs.

(a) If after the Agreement Date the adoption or effectiveness of any Applicable Law or any change or effectiveness in any Applicable Law (whether adopted before or after the Agreement Date) or any interpretation or change in interpretation or administration or effectiveness thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof or compliance by any Lender with any directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency:

(i)            shall subject any Lender to any tax, duty or other charge with respect to its obligation to make or continue Eurodollar Loans, or its Eurodollar Loans, or shall change the basis of taxation of payments to any Lender of the principal of or interest on its Eurodollar Loans or in respect of any other amounts due under this Agreement, in respect of its Eurodollar Loans or its obligation to make or continue Eurodollar Loans (except for changes in the rate or method of calculation of tax on the overall net income of such Lender); or

(ii)           shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve (including, without limitation, any imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, but excluding any included in an applicable Eurodollar Reserve Percentage), special deposit, capital adequacy, assessment or other requirement or condition against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or commitments or credit extended by, any Lender or shall impose on any Lender or the London interbank borrowing market or the New York certificate of deposit market any other condition affecting its obligation to make or continue Eurodollar Loans or its Eurodollar Loans;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any such Eurodollar Loans or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender under

80

this Agreement with respect thereto, then, within five (5) days after demand by such Lender, Duratek agrees to pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increased costs (other than any increased costs resulting from Taxes that are Covered Taxes or Other Taxes (which shall be governed exclusively by Section 2.14) or are excluded from the definition of “Covered Taxes” under Section 2.14(a)).  Each Lender will promptly notify Duratek and the Administrative Agent of any event of which it has knowledge, occurring after the Agreement Date, which will entitle such Lender to compensation pursuant to this Section 10.3 and will designate a different lending office if such designation will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and will not, in the sole judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

(b)           Any Lender claiming compensation under this Section 10.3 shall provide Duratek with a written certificate setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder and calculations therefor in reasonable detail.  Such certificate shall be presumptively correct, absent manifest error.  In determining such amount, such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.  If any Lender demands compensation under this Section 10.3, Duratek may at any time, upon at least five (5) Business Days’ prior notice to such Lender, prepay in full the then outstanding affected Eurodollar Loans of such Lender, together with accrued interest thereon to the date of prepayment, along with any reimbursement required under Section 2.11 hereof.  Concurrently with prepaying such Eurodollar Loans, notwithstanding anything contained in Article 2 or Article 3 hereof, Duratek may borrow a Base Rate Loan from such Lender, and such Lender shall, if so requested, make such Base Rate Loan in an amount such that the outstanding principal amount held by such Lender shall equal the outstanding principal amount immediately prior to such prepayment.

(c)           If any Lender requests compensation under this Section 10.3,  then EnergySolutions may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 11.5), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that:  (i) EnergySolutions shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 11.5, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of and premium (if any) on its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts Section 2.11, treating such assignment as a voluntary prepayment) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or EnergySolutions (in the case of all other amounts); (iii) such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and (iv) such assignment does not conflict with Applicable Law.  A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling EnergySolutions to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.  Each Lender agrees that, if EnergySolutions elects to replace such Lender in accordance with this Section, it shall promptly execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption to evidence such sale and purchase and shall deliver to the Administrative Agent any Note (if Notes have been issued in respect of such Lender’s Loans) subject to such Assignment and Assumption; provided that the failure of any such non-consenting Lender to execute an Assignment and Assumption shall not render such sale and purchase (and the corresponding assignment) invalid and such assignment shall be recorded in the Register.

Section 10.4           Effect on Other Loans.

(a)           If notice has been given pursuant to Section 10.1, 10.2 or 10.3 suspending the obligation of any Lender to make or continue Eurodollar Loans, or requiring Eurodollar Loans of any Lender to be

repaid or prepaid, then, unless and until such Lender notifies Duratek that the circumstances giving rise to such repayment no longer apply, all Loans which would otherwise be made or continued as Eurodollar Loans shall, at the option of Duratek, be made or continued instead as Base Rate Loans.

(b)           If, with respect to any Eurodollar Loan, Lenders owed at least 51% of the then aggregate unpaid principal amount thereof notify the Administrative Agent that the Eurodollar Rate for any Interest Period for such Loan will not adequately reflect the cost to such Lenders of making, funding or maintaining their Eurodollar Loans for such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith so notify Duratek and the Lenders which have made such Loan, whereupon (i) such Eurodollar Loan will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, be continued as a Base Rate Loan and (ii) the obligation of the Lenders which have made such Loan to make further or continue Eurodollar Loans shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify Duratek that such Lenders have determined that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.

(a)           Duratek will promptly pay, or reimburse, without duplication:

83

(ii)     all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent in connection with the administration of the transactions contemplated in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, the restructuring and “work out” of such transactions and the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of any waiver, amendment or consent, whether or not such waiver, amendment or consent shall become effective, by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, including, but not limited to, the reasonable fees and disbursements of any experts, agents or consultants and of special counsel for the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent (limited to one outside counsel to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent and such local counsel as may be necessary for the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent), but excluding any assignment fee pursuant to Section 11.5(b) hereof; and

(iii)    all out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent and the Lenders in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents and all out-of-pocket costs and expenses of collection if an Event of Default occurs in the payment of the Loans or the other Obligations, whether in any action, suit or litigation, or any bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, or other similar proceeding affecting creditors’ rights generally, which in each case shall include reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of one respective outside counsel and such local counsel as may be necessary for the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders.

Section 11.3           Waivers.

The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which they would otherwise have.  No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Lenders, or any of them, in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver of such right.  The Administrative Agent and the Lenders expressly reserve the right to require strict compliance with the terms of this Agreement in connection with any future funding of a request for a Loan.  In the event the Lenders decide to fund a Loan at a time when Duratek is not in strict compliance with the terms of this Agreement, such decision by the Lenders shall not be deemed to constitute an undertaking by the Lenders to fund any further Loans, or to preclude the Lenders and the Administrative Agent from exercising any rights available under the Loan Documents or at law or equity.  Any waiver or indulgence granted by the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or the Majority Lenders shall not constitute a modification of this Agreement, except to the extent expressly provided in such waiver or indulgence, or constitute a course of dealing at variance with the terms of this Agreement such as to require further notice of their intent to require strict adherence to the terms of this Agreement in the future.

84

Section 11.4           Set-Off.

In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under Applicable Law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuation thereof, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders are hereby authorized by Duratek at any time or from time to time, without notice to Duratek or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, including, but not limited to, Indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, in each case whether matured or unmatured) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by any Lender or the Administrative Agent to or for the credit or the account of Duratek or any of its Subsidiaries against and on account of the Obligations irrespective of whether (a) any Lender or the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand hereunder or (b) the Administrative Agent shall have declared the principal of and interest on the Loans and other amounts due hereunder to be due and payable as permitted by Section 8.2 and although such Obligations or any of them shall be contingent or unmatured.  Upon direction by the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Majority Lenders, each Lender holding deposits of Duratek or any of its Subsidiaries shall exercise its set-off rights as so directed.

Section 11.5           Binding Effect and Assignment.

(a)           This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by Duratek and each Agent and the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by each Lender hereto, and Duratek shall have been notified by the Administrative Agent, that each such Lender hereto has executed it and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Duratek, each Agent and each such Lender and their respective successors and assigns, except that Duratek shall not have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of all of the Lenders.

(b)           Each Lender may enter freely into participation agreements with respect to or otherwise grant participations in its Loans to one or more banks or other lenders or financial institutions; provided, however, that (i) such Lender’s obligations hereunder shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the participant shall not be entitled by the benefit of its participation to vote or otherwise take action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except with respect to the matters referred to in Section 11.12 hereof relating to the matters in which affected Lenders are required to vote or all Lenders are required to vote, (iv) such Lender shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and Duratek (in such number of copies as shall be reasonably requested by the recipient) duly signed and properly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 IMY (or any successor thereto) for each participant, and (v) Duratek shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations hereunder.  In addition, each Lender may sell up to 100%, assign or create a security interest in all or any portion of its rights hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to any other Person on an assignment basis; provided that (A) (I) at any time hereunder, such assignment is to an Affiliate of the assignor, an Approved Fund, another Lender or any Conduit Lender, (II) prior to a date to be separately agreed among Duratek and the Arranger (the “Syndication Date”), such assignment is made by the Administrative Agent in connection with syndication of any of the Loans, (III) prior to the Syndication Date, the Administrative Agent has given its written consent to the proposed assignee of a Lender hereunder or (IV) after the Syndication Date, Duratek (unless there exists at the time of such assignment an Event of Default hereunder) and the Administrative Agent have given their prior written consent to the proposed assignee of a Lender hereunder, which consents shall not be unreasonably delayed, conditioned or withheld, and (B) each such assignment shall be in a principal amount of not less than the lesser of (I) the entire amount of such Lender’s interest hereunder or (II) $1,000,000 (calculated on a combined basis with such Lender’s contemporaneous assignment of its EnergySolutions Term Loans and Term L/C Facility

85

Deposits (as such terms are defined in the EnergySolutions Credit Agreement) unless an assignment is from one Lender to another or to an Approved Fund or an Affiliate of a Lender, in which case there shall be no minimum assignment amount.  Each Lender who sells or assigns a portion of its Loans pursuant hereto shall pay to the Administrative Agent an assignment fee of $3,500 with respect to each assignment (except that one such fee shall be payable in connection with simultaneous assignments (i) to or by two or more Approved Funds and (ii) of the EnergySolutions Term Loans), such fee to be paid to the Administrative Agent not later than the effective date of the assignment of the Loan relating thereto.  All assignments by any of the Lenders of any interests hereunder shall be made pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance.  Each Lender may provide any proposed participant or assignee with confidential information provided to such Lender regarding EnergySolutions, Parent, Duratek and their respective Subsidiaries on a confidential basis, and such participant or assignee shall agree to maintain such confidentiality in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.19 hereof.  Further, each permitted assignee or participant with respect to any portion of the Loans shall be entitled to the benefits, and subject to the burdens, of Sections 2.11, 2.13, 2.14 and Article 10 hereof and all other provisions hereof and of the other Loan Documents as a “Lender” hereunder.  Each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.11, 2.13 and 2.14 and Article 10 (subject to the requirements of those Sections) to the same extent as if it were a Lender, but no participant shall be entitled to a greater payment under Section 2.14 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold.  Upon the grant of a participation of its commitment by a Lender pursuant to this Section 11.5(b), such Lender (on behalf of Duratek) shall maintain a register analogous to the Register described in Section 11.5(c) below.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, each assignment by a Lender of its Loans hereunder shall be made concurrently with the ratable assignment of all or a portion of such Lender’s EnergySolutions Term Loans and Term L/C Facility Deposits and no assignment of the Loans shall be made by any Lender hereunder unless such Lender makes a simultaneous ratable assignment of all or a portion of its EnergySolutions Loans; provided that immaterial deviations of the ratable assignment provisions of this Section 11.5(b) shall be permitted.  Before and after any assignment of Term Loans by any Lender, the ratios of (i) such Lender’s Term Loans to the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans outstanding, (ii) such Lender’s Term L/C Facility Deposits and (iii) such Lender’s EnergySolutions Term Loans to the aggregate principal amount of EnergySolutions Term Loans outstanding, shall be identical; provided that immaterial deviations of the ratable assignment provisions of this Section 11.5(b) shall be permitted.

(c)           The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of Duratek, shall maintain a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitments of and the principal amount of the Loans owing to each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”).  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and Duratek, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.  The Register shall be available for inspection at the offices of the Administrative Agent by Duratek or any Lender, at any reasonable time during normal business hours and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.  Each Lender agrees to provide the Administrative Agent and Duratek with written notice of the assignment of all or part of its rights hereunder.  Upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee Lender, the assignee’s completed administrative questionnaire (unless the assignee is already a Lender), the fee referred to in Section 11.5(b) above and any written consent to such assignment required thereby, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register.  No assignment shall be effected for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

86

(d)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 11.5, any Lender that is a fund that invests in bank loans may (without the consent of Duratek or the Administrative Agent) pledge all or a portion of its rights in connection with this Agreement to the trustee or any holder of obligations or agents therefor owed, or securities issued, by such fund as security for such obligations or securities.  No pledge described in the immediately preceding sentence shall release any such Lender from its obligations hereunder.

(e)           [Reserved].

(f)            Except as specifically set forth in Section 11.5(b) hereof, nothing in this Agreement or any Notes, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer on any Person other than the respective parties hereto and thereto and their successors and assignees permitted hereunder and thereunder any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or other claim under this Agreement or any Notes.

(g)           The provisions of this Section 11.5 shall not apply to any purchase of participations among the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.12 hereof.

(h)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and Duratek (a “Conduit Lender”) the option to provide all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any Conduit Lender to fund any Loan, and (ii) if a Conduit Lender elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to make all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof.  The making of a Loan by a Conduit Lender hereunder shall utilize the applicable Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender.  Each party hereto hereby agrees that (i) no Conduit Lender shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement for which a Lender would be liable, (ii) no Conduit Lender shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.13, 2.14 and 10.3 (or any other increased costs protection provision) to any greater extent than the Granting Lender would have been entitled absent the use of a Conduit Lender and (iii) the Granting Lender shall for all purposes, including, without limitation, the approval of any amendment or waiver of any provision of any Loan Document, remain the Lender of record hereunder.  In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior Indebtedness of any Conduit Lender, it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, such Conduit Lender any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding under the laws of the United States or any State thereof.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any Conduit Lender may (i) with notice to, but without prior consent of, Duratek and the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or any portion of its interest in any Loan to the Granting Lender and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its funding of advances to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety or guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such Conduit Lender.  This Section 11.5(h) may not be amended without the prior written consent of each Granting Lender all or any part of whose Loans are being funded by a Conduit Lender at the time of such amendment.

(i)            Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Section 11.5, any Lender may at any time pledge the Obligations held by it and such Lender’s rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge to a Federal Reserve Bank shall release such Lender from such Lender’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document.

87

Section 11.6           Accounting Principles.

Except as set forth in the following sentence, references in this Agreement to GAAP shall be to such principles as defined in Section 1.4, and all accounting terms used herein without definition shall be used as defined under GAAP.  All references to Operating Cash Flow, Debt Service and other such terms shall be deemed to refer to such items of Parent and its respective Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, consistently applied, unless otherwise indicated herein.

(b)           EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS, FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY, TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY NEW YORK STATE COURT OR FEDERAL COURT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA SITTING IN NEW YORK CITY, AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF, IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS TO WHICH IT IS A PARTY, OR FOR RECOGNITION OR ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT, AND EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN ANY SUCH NEW YORK STATE COURT OR, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN SUCH FEDERAL COURT.  EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT A FINAL NON-APPEALABLE JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW.  NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT ANY PARTY MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION.

(c)           EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UN-CONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT IT MAY LEGALLY AND EFFECTIVELY DO SO, ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS TO WHICH IT IS A PARTY IN ANY NEW YORK STATE OR FEDERAL COURT.  EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT.

88

Section 11.9           Severability.

Section 11.10         Interest.

(a)           In no event shall the amount of interest due or payable hereunder or under any Notes exceed the maximum rate of interest allowed by Applicable Law, and in the event any such payment is inadvertently made by Duratek or inadvertently received by any Lender, then such excess sum shall be credited as a payment of principal, unless Duratek shall notify the Administrative Agent or such Lender in writing that it elects to have such excess returned forthwith.  It is the express intent hereof that Duratek not pay and the Lenders not receive, directly or indirectly in any manner whatsoever, interest in excess of that which may legally be paid by Duratek under Applicable Law.

(b)           Notwithstanding the use by the Lenders of the Base Rate, the Federal Funds Rate and the Eurodollar Rate as reference rates for the determination of interest on the Loans, the Lenders shall be under no obligation to obtain funds from any particular source in order to charge interest to Duratek at interest rates related to such reference rates.

If, in connection with any proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination of or to any of the provisions of this Agreement (other than as contemplated by clause (b) above), and the consent of all Lenders required hereunder would have been obtained but for any Lender’s failure to consent (such Lender, a “Non-Consenting Lender”) and the consent of Majority Lenders is obtained but the consent of one or more of such other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained, then Duratek shall have the right, so long as all Non-Consenting Lenders whose individual consent is required are treated as described in either clause (i) or (ii) below, to either (i) replace each such Non-Consenting Lender or Lenders (or, at the option of Duratek if the respective Lender’s consent is required with respect to less than all Loans (or related Commitments), to replace only the Commitments and/or Loans of the respective Non-Consenting Lender that gave rise to the need to obtain such Lender’s individual consent) with one or more assignees pursuant to, and with the effect of an assignment under, Section 10.3 so long as at the time of such replacement, each such assignee consents to the proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination or (ii) terminate such Non-Consenting Lender’s Commitment (if such Lender’s consent is required as a result of its Commitment) and/or repay all outstanding Loans that gave rise to the need to obtain such Lender’s consent in accordance with this Agreement; provided that, unless the Commitments that are terminated, Loans that are repaid pursuant to the preceding clause (ii) are immediately replaced in full at such time through the addition of new Lenders or the increase of the Commitments and/or outstanding Loans of existing Lenders (who in each case must specifically consent thereto), then in the case of any action pursuant to the preceding clause (ii), the Majority Lenders (determined after giving effect to the proposed action) shall specifically consent thereto.  In addition, any waiver, amendment or modification of this Agreement that by its terms affects the rights or duties under this Agreement of the Lenders may be effected by an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by Duratek and the requisite percentage in interest of the affected class of Lenders that would be required to consent thereto under this Section 11.12 if such Lenders were the only Lenders hereunder at the time; provided further that Duratek shall pay to any Non-Consenting Lender any premium that would be payable in the event of a prepayment on such date.
