amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (C) the nature of the
proposed amendment; and (D) such other matters as the L/C Issuer may reasonably
require. Additionally, the Company shall furnish to the L/C Issuer such other
documents and information pertaining to such requested Letter of Credit issuance
or amendment, including any Issuer Documents, as the L/C Issuer may reasonably
require.
(ii)    The L/C Issuer shall (in its sole discretion), on the requested date,
issue the Letter of Credit for the account of the Company or enter into the
applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with the
L/C Issuer’s usual and customary business practices.
(iii)    If the Company so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit
Application, the L/C Issuer may, in its sole and absolute discretion, agree to
issue the Letter of Credit with automatic extension provisions (an
“Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter
of Credit must permit the L/C Issuer to prevent any such extension at least once
in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of the Letter
of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a
day in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time the Letter of
Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the L/C Issuer, the Company shall
not be required to make a specific request to the L/C Issuer for any such
extension.
(iv)    Promptly after its delivery of the Letter of Credit or any amendment to
the Letter of Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the
beneficiary thereof, the L/C Issuer will also deliver to the Company a true and
complete copy of the Letter of Credit or amendment.
(c)    Drawings and Reimbursements.
(i)    Upon receipt from the beneficiary of the Letter of Credit of any notice
of drawing under the Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer shall notify the Company
thereof. If the Letter of Credit is denominated in an Alternative Currency, the
Company shall reimburse the L/C Issuer in such Alternative Currency, unless (A)
the L/C Issuer (at its option) shall have specified in such notice that it will
require reimbursement in Dollars, or (B) in the absence of any such requirement
for reimbursement in Dollars, the Company shall have notified the L/C Issuer
promptly following receipt of the notice of drawing that the Company will
reimburse the L/C Issuer in Dollars. In the case of any such reimbursement in
Dollars, the L/C Issuer shall notify the Company of the Dollar Equivalent of the
amount of the drawing promptly following the determination thereof. Not later
than 11:00 a.m. on the date of any payment by the L/C Issuer under the Letter of
Credit to be reimbursed in

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Exhibit 10.21

Dollars, or the Applicable Time on the date of any payment by the L/C Issuer
under the Letter of Credit to be reimbursed in an Alternative Currency (each
such date, an “Honor Date”), the Company shall reimburse the L/C Issuer in an
amount equal to the amount of such drawing and in the applicable currency.
(ii)    Each Unreimbursed Amount shall be due and payable on demand and shall
bear interest at the Default Rate.
(d)    Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the Company to reimburse the L/C
Issuer for each drawing under the Letter of Credit that has been honored by the
L/C Issuer shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid
strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances,
including the following:
(i)    any lack of validity or enforceability of the Letter of Credit, this
Agreement or any other Loan Document;
(ii)    the existence of any claim, counterclaim, setoff, defense or other right
that the Company or any Subsidiary may have at any time against any beneficiary
or any transferee of the Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such
beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the L/C Issuer or any other
Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated
hereby or by the Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating
thereto, or any unrelated transaction;
(iii)    any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under the
Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in
any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;
or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required
in order to make a drawing under the Letter of Credit;
(iv)    waiver by the L/C Issuer of any requirement that exists for the L/C
Issuer’s protection and not the protection of the Company or any waiver by the
L/C Issuer which does not in fact materially prejudice the Company;
(v)    honor of a demand for payment presented electronically even if the Letter
of Credit requires that demand be in the form of a draft;
(vi)    any payment made by the L/C Issuer in respect of an otherwise complying
item presented after the date specified as the expiration date of, or the date
by which documents must be received under the Letter of Credit if presentation
after such date is authorized by the UCC or the ISP, as applicable;
(vii)    any payment by the L/C Issuer under the Letter of Credit against
presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the
terms of the Letter of Credit; or any payment made by the L/C Issuer under the
Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy,
debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator,
receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any
transferee of the Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any
proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law;
(viii)    any adverse change in the relevant exchange rates or in the
availability of the relevant Alternative Currency to the Company or any
Subsidiary or in the relevant currency markets generally; or

10

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Exhibit 10.21

(ix)    any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar
to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise
constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Company or any
Subsidiary;
provided, that nothing in this Section 2.03(d) shall be deemed a waiver of the
second and third sentences in Section 2.03(e).
The Company shall promptly examine a copy of the Letter of Credit and each
amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of
noncompliance with the Company’s instructions or other irregularity, the Company
will immediately notify the L/C Issuer. The Company shall be conclusively deemed
to have waived any such claim against the L/C Issuer and its correspondents
unless such notice is given as aforesaid.
(e)    Role of L/C Issuer. The Company agree that, in paying any drawing under
the Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer shall not have any responsibility to obtain
any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly
required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity
or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or
delivering any such document. The Company hereby assumes all risks of the acts
or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of the
Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to,
and shall not, preclude the Company’s pursuing such rights and remedies as it
may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other
agreement. None of the L/C Issuer, any of its Related Parties nor any
correspondent, participant or assignee of the L/C Issuer shall be liable or
responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (i) through (ix) of
Section 2.01(d); provided, however, that anything in such clauses to the
contrary notwithstanding, the Company may have a claim against the L/C Issuer,
and the L/C Issuer may be liable to the Company, to the extent, but only to the
extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages
suffered by the Company which the Company proves were caused by the L/C Issuer’s
willful misconduct or gross negligence or the L/C Issuer’s willful failure to
pay under the Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary
of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and
conditions of the Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the
foregoing, the L/C Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be
in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any
notice or information to the contrary, and the L/C Issuer shall not be
responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or
assigning or purporting to transfer or assign the Letter of Credit or the rights
or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove
to be invalid or ineffective for any reason. The L/C Issuer may send the Letter
of Credit or conduct any communication to or from the beneficiary via the
Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (“SWIFT”) message or
overnight courier, or any other commercially reasonable means of communicating
with a beneficiary.
(f)    Cash Collateral. (i) Upon the request of the L/C Issuer, (A) if the L/C
Issuer has honored any full or partial drawing request under the Letter of
Credit and such drawing has resulted in Unreimbursed Amounts, or (B) if, as of
the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, any L/C Obligation for any reason remains
outstanding, the Company shall, in each case, immediately Cash Collateralize the
then Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations in an amount equal to 105% of the
Outstanding Amount thereof.
(i)    The L/C Issuer may, at any time and from time to time after the initial
deposit of Cash Collateral, request that additional Cash Collateral be provided
in order to protect against the results of exchange rate fluctuations such that
the amount of Cash Collateral is equal to 105% of the Outstanding Amount of the
Letter of Credit.

11

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Exhibit 10.21

(ii)    Section 8.02 sets forth certain additional requirements to deliver Cash
Collateral hereunder. For purposes of this Section 2.01 and Section 8.02, “Cash
Collateralize” means to pledge and deposit with or deliver to the L/C Issuer, as
collateral for the L/C Obligations, cash or deposit account balances pursuant to
documentation in form and substance satisfactory to the L/C Issuer. Derivatives
of such term have corresponding meanings. The Company hereby grants to the L/C
Issuer, a security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances
therein and all proceeds of the foregoing. Cash Collateral shall be maintained
in blocked, non-interest bearing deposit accounts at Bank of America.
(g)    Applicability of ISP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the L/C Issuer
and the Company when a Letter of Credit is issued, the rules of the ISP shall
apply to each standby Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the L/C
Issuer shall not be responsible to the Company for, and the L/C Issuer’s rights
and remedies against the Company shall not be impaired by, any action or
inaction of the L/C Issuer required or permitted under any Law, order, or
practice that is required or permitted to be applied to the Letter of Credit or
this Agreement, including the Law or any order of a jurisdiction where the L/C
Issuer or the beneficiary is located, the practice stated in the ISP, or in the
decisions, opinions, practice statements, or official commentary of the ICC
Banking Commission, the Bankers Association for Finance and Trade -
International Financial Services Association (BAFT-IFSA), or the Institute of
International Banking Law & Practice, whether or not the Letter of Credit
chooses such Law or practice.
(h)    Letter of Credit Fees. The Company shall pay to the L/C Issuer, in
Dollars, a Letter of Credit fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) for the Letter of
Credit equal to the Applicable Rate times the Dollar Equivalent of the daily
amount available to be drawn under the Letter of Credit. For purposes of
computing the daily amount available to be drawn under the Letter of Credit, the
amount of the Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section
1.06. Letter of Credit Fees shall be (i) due and payable on the first Business
Day after the end of each March, June, September and December, commencing with
the first such date to occur after the issuance of the Letter of Credit, on the
Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand and (ii) computed on a
quarterly basis in arrears. If there is any change in the Applicable Rate during
any quarter, the daily amount available to be drawn under the Letter of Credit
shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each
period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, upon the request of
the L/C Issuer, while any Event of Default exists, all Letter of Credit Fees
shall accrue at the Default Rate.
(i)    Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to L/C Issuer. The Company
shall pay to the L/C Issuer for its own account, in Dollars, the customary
issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing fees, and other standard
costs and charges, of the L/C Issuer relating to letters of credit as from time
to time in effect. Such customary fees and standard costs and charges are due
and payable on demand and are nonrefundable.
(j)    Conflict with Issuer Documents. In the event of any conflict between the
terms hereof and the terms of any Issuer Document, the terms hereof shall
control.

2.02    [Reserved].

12

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Exhibit 10.21

2.03    Computation of Fees; Retroactive Adjustments of Applicable Rate.
(a)    All computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a
360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as
applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year). Each
determination by the L/C Issuer of a fee hereunder shall be conclusive and
binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.
(b)    If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the
financial statements of the Company or for any other reason, the Company or the
L/C Issuer determines that (i) the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio as
calculated by the Company as of any applicable date was inaccurate and (ii) a
proper calculation of the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio would have resulted
in higher pricing for such period, the Company shall immediately and
retroactively be obligated to pay to the L/C Issuer, promptly on demand (or,
after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with
respect to the Company under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States,
automatically and without further action by the L/C Issuer), an amount equal to
the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for
such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period.
This paragraph shall not limit the rights of the L/C Issuer under this
Agreement. The Company’s obligations under this paragraph shall survive the
termination of this Agreement and the repayment of all other Obligations
hereunder.

2.04    Evidence of Credit Extensions.
The Credit Extensions made by the L/C Issuer shall be evidenced by one or more
accounts or records maintained by the L/C Issuer in the ordinary course of
business. The accounts or records maintained by the L/C Issuer shall be
conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Credit Extensions made by
the L/C Issuer to the Company and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure
to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise
affect the obligation of the Company hereunder to pay any amount owing with
respect to the Obligations.

2.05    Payments Generally.
All payments to be made by the Company shall be made free and clear of and
without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or
setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein and except with respect to
Obligations denominated in an Alternative Currency, all payments by the Company
hereunder shall be made to the L/C Issuer, at the L/C Issuer’s applicable
Lending Office in Dollars and in Same Day Funds not later than 1:00 p.m. on the
date specified herein. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all
payments by the Company hereunder with respect to Obligations denominated in an
Alternative Currency shall be made to the L/C Issuer at the applicable Lending
Office in such Alternative Currency and in Same Day Funds not later than the
Applicable Time specified by the L/C Issuer on the dates specified herein.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the L/C Issuer may require
that any payments due under this Agreement be made in the United States. If, for
any reason, the Company is prohibited by any Law from making any required
payment hereunder in an Alternative Currency, the Company shall make such
payment in Dollars in the Dollar Equivalent of the Alternative Currency payment
amount. All payments received by the L/C Issuer (i) after 2:00 p.m., in the case
of payments in Dollars, or (ii) after the Applicable Time specified by the L/C
Issuer in the case of payments in an Alternative Currency, shall in each case be
deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest
or fee shall continue to accrue. If any payment to be made by the Company shall
come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next
following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in
computing interest or fees, as the case may be.

13

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Exhibit 10.21

2.06    Termination.
The Company may, upon written notice to the L/C Issuer, terminate this
Agreement; provided, that (i) any such notice shall be received by the L/C
Issuer not later than 12:00 noon five (5) Business Days prior to the date of
termination and (ii) the Letter of Credit shall have been cancelled or the
Company shall have otherwise provided Cash Collateral or other credit support in
respect of the Letter of Credit reasonably acceptable to the L/C Issuer.

ARTICLE III

TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

3.01    Taxes.
(a)    Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Company
hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall to the extent permitted by
applicable Laws be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding
for any Taxes, provided that if the Company shall be required by applicable Law
to deduct any Taxes (including any Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes) from such
payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after
making all required deductions of Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes (including
deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the L/C
Issuer receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such
deductions of Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes been made, (ii) the Company
shall make such deductions and (iii) the Company shall timely pay the full
amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with
applicable Law.
(b)    Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) above, the Company
shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in
accordance with applicable law.
(c)    The Company agrees to indemnify the L/C Issuer for the full amount of
Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes (including any Indemnified Taxes or Other
Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on or attributable to amounts
payable under this Section) withheld or deducted by the Company or paid by the
L/C Issuer, as the case may be, and any expenses arising therefrom or with
respect thereto, in each case whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other
Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental
Authority except for any penalties, interest or expenses resulting from the
gross negligence or willful misconduct of the L/C Issuer. Payment under this
subsection (c) shall be made within 30 days after the date the L/C Issuer makes
a written demand therefor.
(d)    Upon written request by the L/C Issuer, after any payment of Taxes by the
Company to a Governmental Authority as provided in this Section 3.01, the
Company shall deliver to the L/C Issuer the original or a certified copy of a
receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of
any return required by Law to report such payment or other evidence of such
payment reasonably satisfactory to the L/C Issuer.
(e)    Upon request of the Company, the L/C Issuer (including any assignee or
transferee of its rights hereunder) shall deliver to the Company on or prior to
the date on which such Person becomes the L/C Issuer under this Agreement (and
from time to time thereafter upon any assignment or transfer of L/C Issuer’s
rights hereunder, designation of a different Lending Office, or the reasonable
request of the Company), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such
entity is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax.

14

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Exhibit 10.21

3.02    Increased Cost and Reduced Return; Capital Adequacy.
(a)    If the L/C Issuer reasonably determines that as a result of any Change in
Law, there shall be any increase in the cost to the L/C Issuer of issuing the
Letter of Credit, or a reduction in the amount received or receivable by the L/C
Issuer in connection with any of the foregoing (excluding for purposes of this
subsection any such increased costs or reduction in amount resulting from (i)
Excluded Taxes, Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (as to which Section 3.01 shall
govern) or (ii) changes in the rate of taxation of overall net income or overall
gross income by the United States or any foreign jurisdiction or any political
subdivision of either thereof under the Laws of which the L/C Issuer is
organized or has its Lending Office) then from time to time upon demand of the
L/C Issuer, the Company shall pay to the L/C Issuer such additional amounts as
will compensate the L/C Issuer for such increased cost or reduction.
(b)    If the L/C Issuer determines that any Change in Law regarding capital
adequacy affecting the L/C Issuer (or its Lending Office or holding company) has
the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of the L/C Issuer or
its holding company as a consequence of the L/C Issuer’s obligations hereunder
(taking into consideration its (and its holding company’s) policies with respect
to capital adequacy and the L/C Issuer’s or its holding company’s desired return
on capital), then from time to time upon demand of the L/C Issuer, the Company
shall pay to the L/C Issuer such additional amounts as will compensate the L/C
Issuer or such holding company for such reduction.

3.03    Matters Applicable to all Requests for Compensation.
(a)    The L/C Issuer may make any Credit Extension through any Lending Office,
provided that the exercise of this option shall not affect the obligation the
Company to repay the Credit Extension in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement. A certificate of the L/C Issuer claiming compensation under this
Article III and setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it
hereunder shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error and shall set
forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount (but shall not
require the L/C Issuer to disclose confidential or proprietary information). In
determining such amount, the L/C Issuer may use any reasonable averaging and
attribution methods if applied consistently to all similarly situated borrowers.
(b)    If the Company is required to pay any amount to the L/C Issuer pursuant
to this Article III, then the L/C Issuer shall, at the expense of the Company,
use reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) to
change the jurisdiction of its Lending Office so as to eliminate or reduce any
such additional payment which may thereafter accrue, if such change in the
reasonable judgment of the L/C Issuer is not otherwise disadvantageous to the
L/C Issuer.
(c)    Failure or delay on the part of the L/C Issuer to demand compensation
pursuant to Section 3.02 shall not constitute a waiver of the L/C Issuer’s right
to demand such compensation, provided that the Company shall not be required to
compensate the L/C Issuer pursuant to (i) Section 3.02 for any increased costs
incurred or reductions suffered more than six months prior to the date that the
L/C Issuer notifies the Company of the Change in Law giving rise to such
increased costs or reductions and of the L/C Issuer’s intention to claim
compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such
increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the six-month period referred
to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof)
or (ii) Section 3.02 for any loss, cost or expense incurred more than six months
prior to the date that the L/C Issuer notifies the Company thereof.

3.04    Survival.

informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep
such Information confidential), (b) to the extent required or requested by any
regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over such Person or its
Related Parties (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National
Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by
applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process;
provided, that it shall, to the extent permitted by Law and reasonably
practicable, notify the Company prior to such disclosure so that the Company may
seek, at the Company’s expense, a protective order or other appropriate remedy,

remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding
relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of

provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee
of, or any prospective assignee of, any of its rights or obligations under this
Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective party (or its Related Parties) to
any swap, derivative or other transaction under which payments are to be made by
reference to the Company and its obligations, this Agreement or payments
hereunder, (g) with the consent of the Company or (h) to the extent such
Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of
this Section or (y) becomes available to the L/C Issuer or any of its Affiliates
on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Company.
For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from
the Company or any Subsidiary relating to the Company or any Subsidiary or any
of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is
available to the L/C Issuer on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by
the Company or any Subsidiary. Any Person required to maintain the
confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered
to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the
same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such
Person would accord to its own confidential information. In addition, the L/C
Issuer may disclose the existence of this Agreement and information about this
Agreement to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending
industry and service providers to the L/C Issuer in connection with the

non-public information concerning the Company or a Subsidiary, as the case may
be, (b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material
non-public information and (c) it will handle such material non-public
information in accordance with applicable Law, including Federal and state

all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in
whatever

26

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Exhibit 10.21

currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any
time owing by the L/C Issuer or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the
account of the Company against any and all of the obligations of the Company now
or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the L/C
Issuer, irrespective of whether or not the L/C Issuer or its Affiliates shall
have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and
although such obligations of the Company may be contingent or unmatured or are
owed to a branch or office or Affiliate of the L/C Issuer different from the
branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The
rights of the L/C Issuer and its Affiliates under this Section are in addition
to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that the L/C
Issuer or its Affiliates may have. The L/C Issuer agrees to notify the Company
promptly after any such setoff and application, provided that the failure to
give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

9.09    Interest Rate Limitation.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the
interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the
maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum
Rate”). If the L/C Issuer shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the
Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the
Obligations or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Company. In
determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the L/C
Issuer exceeds the Maximum Rate, the L/C Issuer may, to the extent permitted by
applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an
expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments
and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in
equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated
term of the Obligations hereunder.

9.10    Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness.
This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto
in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all
of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement
and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire contract among the parties
relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous
agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter
hereof. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed
by the L/C Issuer and when the L/C Issuer shall have received counterparts
hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other
parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this
Agreement by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed
counterpart of this Agreement.

9.11    Survival of Representations and Warranties.
All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document
or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith
or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such
representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the L/C
Issuer, regardless of any investigation made by the L/C Issuer or on its behalf
and notwithstanding that the L/C Issuer may have had notice or knowledge of any
Default at the time of any Credit Extension, and shall continue in full force
and effect as long as any Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or
unsatisfied or the Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding.

9.12    Severability.

27

illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability
of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall
not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good

9.16    No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility.
In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby, the
Company acknowledges and agrees that: (i) the credit facilities provided for
hereunder and any related arranging or other services in connection therewith
(including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof
or of any other Loan Document) are an arm’s-length commercial transaction
between the Company and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the L/C Issuer, on
the other hand, and the Company is capable of evaluating and understanding and
understands and accepts the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions
contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents (including any amendment,
waiver or other modification hereof or thereof); (ii) in connection with the
process leading to such transaction, the L/C Issuer is and has been acting
solely as a principal and is not the financial advisor, agent or fiduciary, for
the Company or any of its Affiliates, stockholders, creditors or employees or
any other Person; (iii) the L/C Issuer has not assumed or will assume an
advisory, agency or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Company with
respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading
thereto, including with respect to any amendment, waiver or other modification
hereof or of any other Loan Document (irrespective of whether the L/C Issuer has
advised or is currently advising the Company or any of its Affiliates on other
matters) and the L/C Issuer has no obligation to the Company or any of its
Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those
obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; (iv) the
L/C Issuer and its Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions
that involve interests that differ from those of the Company and its Affiliates,
and the L/C Issuer has no obligation to disclose any of such interests by virtue
of any advisory, agency or fiduciary relationship; and (v) the L/C Issuer has
not provided and will not provide any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax
advice with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby (including
any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan
Document) and the Company has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory
and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate. The Company hereby
waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that it
may have against the L/C Issuer with respect to any breach or alleged breach of
agency or fiduciary duty.

9.17    USA PATRIOT Act Notice; Beneficial Ownership Regulation.
The L/C Issuer hereby notifies the Company that pursuant to the requirements of
the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26,
2001)) (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that
identifies the Company, which information includes the name and address of the
Company and other information that will allow the L/C Issuer to identify the
Company in accordance with the Act. The Company shall, promptly following a
request by the L/C Issuer, provide all documentation

Exhibit 10.21

and other information available to the Company that the L/C Issuer reasonably
requests in order to comply with its ongoing obligations under applicable “know
your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the
Act, and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation.

9.18    Judgment Currency.
If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to
convert a sum due hereunder or any other Loan Document in one currency into
another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance
with normal banking procedures the L/C Issuer could purchase the first currency
with such other currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final
judgment is given. The obligation of the Company in respect of any such sum due
from it to the L/C Issuer hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall,
notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than
that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the applicable
provisions of this Agreement (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to
the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the L/C Issuer of any
sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the L/C Issuer may in
accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with
the Judgment Currency. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is
less than the sum originally due to the L/C Issuer from the Company in the
Agreement Currency, the Company agrees, as a separate obligation and
notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the L/C Issuer or the Person to
whom such obligation was owing against such loss. If the amount of the Agreement
Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to the L/C Issuer
in such currency, the L/C Issuer agrees to return the amount of any excess to
the Company (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable
law).

9.19    Electronic Execution.
The words “execute,” “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like
import in or related to any document to be signed in connection with this
Agreement, any other document executed in connection herewith and the
transactions contemplated hereby (including without limitation amendments or
other modifications, waivers and consents) shall be deemed to include electronic
signatures, the electronic matching of assignment terms and contract formations
on electronic platforms approved by the L/C Issuer, or the keeping of records in
electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or
enforceability as a manually executed signature, physical delivery or the use of
a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as
provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures
in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures
and Records Act, or any other similar state Laws based on the Uniform Electronic
Transactions Act; provided that notwithstanding anything contained herein to the
contrary the L/C Issuer is under no obligation to agree to accept electronic
signatures in any form or in any format unless expressly agreed to by the L/C
Issuer pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided further without limiting
the foregoing, upon the request of any party, any electronic signature shall be
promptly followed by such manually executed counterpart.
