however, that the failure of any Revolving Credit Lender or the Agent to maintain the
Register or any such account, as applicable, or any error therein, shall not in any manner
affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay the Revolving Credit Advances (and all other

| | Borrowers or any of their respective Subsidiaries, the Agent, any other Revolving Credit
Lender, or any other party for another Revolving Credit Lenders failure to make any loan
or Advance hereunder. In the event any Revolving Credit Lender shall fail to advance any
amounts required to be advanced in accordance with the terms of this Article 2 (a
Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender), the Agent shall promptly provide written notice
thereof to CALP and to each other Revolving Credit Lender (each such other Revolving
Credit Lender being referred to in this Section as a Non-Defaulting Revolving Credit
Lender). Each Non-Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender shall have ten (10) Business Days
from receipt of said notice to exercise its option to agree to enter into an agreement pursuant
to which the Non-Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender shall assume the Defaulting
Revolving Credit Lenders rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents. The Non-Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender shall exercise such option by
providing written notice of same to the Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender (and if there is
more than one Non-Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender, the assignment agreement shall be
entered into with the Non-Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender who first notifies the
Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender of its decision to exercise said option) and to CALP. If
no Non-Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender shall exercise the above-described option within
the said ten (10) Business Day period and if CALP shall, subject to Section 13.9(c) hereof,
within thirty (30) days of delivery of the notice described above, advise such Defaulting
Revolving Credit Lender of another bank or financial institution to which assignments are
permitted pursuant to Section 13.9(c) hereof and which is willing to assume such Defaulting
Revolving Credit Lenders rights and obligations under this Agreement, its Notes and the
other Loan Documents (each such bank or financial institution being hereinafter referred to
as a Potential Financial Institution), such Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender shall, subject
to Section 13.9(c), assign its said rights and obligations to the Potential Financial Institution;
provided however that any such assignment shall not alter Agents or Borrowers remedies
vis a vis the Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender.

2.5 Swing Line Advances. (a) The Swing Line Lender shall, on the terms and subject to
the conditions hereinafter set forth (including without limitation Section 2.5(c) hereof), make one
or more advances in Dollars (each such advance being a Swing Line Advance) to CALP or any
Co-Borrower (provided that such Co-Borrower has become a party to this Agreement in compliance
with Section 2.1(a) hereof), from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the date
hereof to (but excluding) the Revolving Credit Maturity Date in an Amount not to exceed at any time
outstanding the Swing Line Maximum Amount. Swing Line Lender shall maintain in accordance
with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing indebtedness of each of the Borrowers to
Swing Line Lender resulting from each Swing Line Advance of such Revolving Credit Lender from
time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable thereon and paid to such
Revolving Credit Lender from time to time and shall promptly deliver to Agent a copy of any
Request for Advance received hereunder. The entries made in such account or accounts of Swing
Line Lender shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be conclusive evidence, absent manifest
error, of the existence and amounts of the obligations of such Borrower therein recorded; provided,
however, that the failure of Swing Line Lender to maintain such account, as applicable, or any error

therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay the Swing Line
Advances (and all other amounts owing with respect thereto) made to the Borrowers by Swing Line
Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Advances, repayments and readvances under
the Swing Line may be made, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Each Swing
Line Advance shall mature and the principal amount thereof shall be due and payable by the
Borrowers on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto (if any) and, in the case of any
Prime-based Advance, on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date.

Each of the Borrowers agrees that, upon the written request of Swing Line Lender, such
Borrower will execute and deliver to Swing Line Lender a Swing Line Note; provided, that the
delivery of such Swing Line Note shall not be a condition precedent to the Effective Date.

the date of such Advance, bear interest at the Applicable Interest Rate. The amount and date
of each Swing Line Advance, the Applicable Interest Rate, its Interest Period, if any, and the
amount and date of any repayment shall be noted on Swing Line Lenders account
maintained pursuant to Section 2.5(a), which records will be conclusive evidence thereof,
absent manifest error; provided, however, that any failure by the Swing Line Lender to record
any such information shall not relieve applicable Borrower of its obligation to repay the
outstanding principal amount of such Advance, all interest accrued thereon and any amount
payable with respect thereto in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents.

| | (c) Requests for Swing Line Advances. A Borrower may request a Swing Line
Advance, subject to clause (vi) of this Section 2.5(c), only after the delivery to Swing Line
Lender of a Request for Swing Line Advance executed by a person previously authorized (in
a writing delivered to the Agent) by CALP to make such requests, subject to the following

| | (i) The Agent, at any time in its sole and absolute discretion, may on
behalf of the applicable Borrower (which hereby irrevocably directs the Agent to act
on its behalf) request each of the Revolving Credit Lenders (including the Swing
Line Lender in its capacity as a Revolving Credit Lender) to make an Advance of the
Revolving Credit to such Borrower, in an amount equal to such Revolving Credit
Lenders Revolving Credit Percentage of the principal amount of the aggregate
Swing Line Advances outstanding on the date such notice is given (the Refunded
Swing Line Advances). In the case of each Refunded Swing Line Advance the
applicable Advance of the Revolving Credit used to refund such Swing Line
Advance shall be a Prime-based Advance. In connection with the making of any such
Refunded Swing Line Advances or the purchase of a participation interest in Swing
Line Advances under Section 2.5(e)(ii) hereof, the Swing Line Lender shall retain its
claim against the Borrowers for any unpaid interest or fees in respect thereof. Unless
any of the events described in Section 9.1(j) hereof shall have occurred (in which
event the procedures of subparagraph (ii) of this Section 2.5(e) shall apply) and
regardless of whether the conditions precedent set forth in this Agreement to the
making of an Advance of the Revolving Credit are then satisfied but subject to
Section 2.5(e)(iii), each Revolving Credit Lender shall make the proceeds of its
Advance of the Revolving Credit available to the Agent for the benefit of the Swing
Line Lender at the office of the Agent specified in Section 2.4(a) hereof prior to
11:00 a.m. Detroit time (for Prime-based Advances) on the Business Day next
succeeding the date such notice is given, in immediately available funds. The
proceeds of such Advances of the Revolving Credit shall be immediately applied to
repay the Refunded Swing Line Advances in accordance with the provisions of
Section 10.1 hereof.

| | (ii) If, prior to the making of an Advance of the Revolving Credit pursuant
to subparagraph (i) of this Section 2.5(e), one of the events described in Section
9.1(j) hereof shall have occurred, each Revolving Credit Lender will, on the date such
Advance of the Revolving Credit was to have been made, purchase from the Swing
Line Lender an undivided participating interest in each Refunded Swing Line
Advance in an amount equal to its Revolving Credit Percentage of such Refunded
Swing Line Advance. Each Revolving Credit Lender within the time periods
specified in Section 2.5(e)(i) hereof, as applicable, shall immediately transfer to the

| | affected by any circumstance, including, without limitation, (i) any set-off,
counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Revolving Credit
Lender may have against Swing Line Lender, the Borrowers or any other Person for
any reason whatsoever; (ii) the occurrence or continuance of any Default or Event of
Default; (iii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of the
Borrowers or any other Person; (iv) any breach of this Agreement by any Borrower
or any other Person; (v) any inability of the Borrowers to satisfy the conditions
precedent to borrowing set forth in this Agreement on the date upon which such
participating interest is to be purchased; (vi) the termination of the Revolving Credit
Aggregate Commitment hereunder; or (vii) any other circumstance, happening or
event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. If any Revolving
Credit Lender does not make available to the Agent the amount required pursuant to
clause (i) or (ii) above, as the case may be, the Agent shall be entitled to recover such
amount on demand from such Revolving Credit Lender, together with interest
thereon for each day from the date of non-payment until such amount is paid in full
(x) for the first two (2) Business Days such amount remains unpaid, at the Federal
Funds Effective Rate and (y) thereafter, at the rate of interest then applicable to such
Swing Line Advances.

Notwithstanding the foregoing however no Revolving Credit Lender shall be required to
make any Revolving Credit Advance to refund a Swing Line Advance or to purchase a participation
in a Swing Line Advance if prior to the making of the Swing Line Advance by the Swing Line
Lender, the Agent had received from any Bank a notice of default meeting the requirements of
Section 12.9 hereof; provided, however that the obligation of the Revolving Credit Lenders to make
such Revolving Credit Advances shall be reinstated upon the date that each applicable Event of
Default covered by such notice, as the case may be, has been waived by the requisite Revolving
Credit Lenders, as applicable.

2.6 Prime-based Interest Payments. Interest on the unpaid balance of all Prime-based
Advances of the Revolving Credit and all Swing Line Advances carried at the Prime-based Rate
from time to time outstanding shall accrue from the date of such Advance to the Revolving Credit
Maturity Date (and until paid), at a per annum interest rate equal to the Prime-based Rate, and shall
be payable in immediately available funds monthly commencing on the first day of the month next
succeeding the month during which the initial Advance of the Revolving Credit or Swing Line
Advance, as the case may be, is made and on the first day of each month thereafter. Interest accruing
at the Prime-based Rate shall be computed on the basis of a 360 day year and assessed for the actual
number of days elapsed, and in such computation effect shall be given to any change in the interest
rate resulting from a change in the Prime-based Rate on the date of such change in the Prime-based
Rate.

2.7 Eurocurrency-based Interest Payments. Interest on each Eurocurrency-based Advance
of the Revolving Credit shall accrue at its Applicable Interest Rate and shall be payable in
immediately available funds on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto (and, if any

30

Interest Period shall exceed three months, then on the last Business Day of the third month of such
Interest Period, and at three month intervals thereafter). Interest accruing at the Eurocurrency-based
Rate shall be computed on the basis of a 360 day year and assessed for the actual number of days
elapsed from the first day of the Interest Period applicable thereto to but not including the last day
thereof.

2.8 Interest Payments on Conversions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the
preceding sections, all accrued and unpaid interest on any Advance converted pursuant to Section
2.3 hereof shall be due and payable in full on the date such Advance is converted.

2.9 Interest on Default. In the event and so long as any Event of Default shall exist, in the
case of any Event of Default under Sections 9.1(a), 9.1(b) or 9.1(j), immediately upon the occurrence
thereof, and in the case of all other Events of Default, upon notice from the Majority Revolving
Credit Lenders, interest shall be payable daily on all Eurocurrency-based Advances of the Revolving
Credit from time to time outstanding (and all other monetary obligations of the Borrowers hereunder
and under the other Loan Documents) at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Interest Rate plus
two percent (2%) for the remainder of the then existing Interest Period, if any, and at all other such
times, with respect to Prime-based Advances from time to time outstanding, at a per annum rate
equal to the Prime-based Rate plus two percent (2%).

2.11 Prime-based Advance in Absence of Election or Upon Default. Subject to Section
11.3 and unless the Majority Revolving Credit Lenders shall have otherwise agreed, if upon the
expiration of any Interest Period applicable to any Eurocurrency-based Advance:



| |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                
| | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| | (a) the applicable Borrower has failed to timely select a new Interest Period to
be applicable to such Eurocurrency Advance, such Borrower shall be deemed to have elected
to convert such Eurocurrency-based Advance into Prime-based Rate Advance effective as
of the expiration date of such Interest Period; and                                                           
|
| | (b) on such day a Default or Event of Default shall exist, then subject to Section
11.1 hereof, and notwithstanding the foregoing clause (a), at the election of the Majority
Revolving Credit Lenders the outstanding principal amount of such Eurocurrency-based
Advance shall be converted to a Prime-based Advance and the Agent shall promptly notify
CALP of such action.

2.12 Fees. (a) From the Effective Date to (but excluding) the Revolving Credit Maturity
Date, the Borrowers shall pay to each of the Lenders, a Revolving Credit Commitment Fee
determined by multiplying the Applicable Fee Percentage times the average daily amount by which
such Lenders Percentage of the Revolving Credit Aggregate Commitment then in effect exceeds the
sum of (i) such Lenders Percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Credit Advances
(including Swing Line Advances) outstanding from time to time during such period and (ii) such
Lenders Percentage of the aggregate daily undrawn amount of any Letters of Credit during such
period, calculated on a daily basis. The Revolving Credit Commitment Fee shall be payable
quarterly in arrears commencing January 15, 2002, and on January 15, April 15, July 15 and October
15 of each year, and at the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, and shall be computed on the basis of
a year of three hundred sixty (360) days and assessed for the actual number of days elapsed.
Whenever any payment of the Revolving Credit Commitment Fee shall be due on a day which is not
a Business Day, the date for payment thereof shall be extended to the next Business Day. Such
Revolving Credit Commitment Fee shall be paid by Borrowers to the Agent. Upon receipt of such
payment, Agent shall make prompt payment to each Lender of its share of the Revolving Credit
Commitment Fee. The Revolving Credit Commitment Fee shall not be refundable under any
circumstance.

(b)  On the Effective Date, the Borrowers shall pay to the Agent for distribution to the
Revolving Credit Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Percentages, a Revolving
Credit Facility Fee in an amount equal to the Applicable Fee Percentage times the Revolving Credit
Aggregate Commitment. Upon receipt of such payment, Agent shall make prompt payment to each
Revolving Credit Lender of its share of the Revolving Credit Facility Fee based on its respective
Percentage. The Revolving Credit Facility Fee shall not be refundable under any circumstance.

| | (a) If at any time and for any reason (including the sale or other transfer of any
Eligible Property otherwise permitted hereunder or as a result of the effect of any Borrowing
Base Limitation) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Revolving Credit Advances
plus Swing Line Advances hereunder to the Borrowers, plus the outstanding Letter of Credit
Obligations, shall exceed the lesser of (i) the then applicable Revolving Credit Aggregate
Commitment or (ii) the Borrowing Base, the Borrowers shall immediately reduce any
pending request for a Revolving Credit Advance on such day by the amount of such excess
and, to the extent any excess remains thereafter, shall, by the close of business on the next
succeeding Business Day following the date on which such excess is determined to exist,
repay an amount of the Indebtedness equal to such excess and, to the extent such
Indebtedness consists of Letter of Credit Obligations, shall provide cash collateral on the
basis set forth in Section 9.2 hereof. Each of the Borrowers acknowledges that, in connection
with any repayment required hereunder, it shall also be responsible for the reimbursement
of any prepayment or other costs required under Section 11.1 hereof; provided, however, that
the Borrowers shall, in order to reduce any such prepayment costs and expenses, first prepay
such portion of the Indebtedness then carried as a Prime-based Advance, if any.
|
| | (b) To the extent that, on the date any mandatory repayment of the Revolving
Advances under this Section 2.13 is due, the Indebtedness under the Revolving Credit or any
other Indebtedness to be prepaid is being carried, in whole or in part, at the Eurocurrency-based
Rate and no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrowers
may deposit the amount of such mandatory prepayment in a cash collateral account to be held
by the Agent, for and on behalf of the Revolving Credit Lenders (which shall be an interest-bearing
account), on such terms and conditions as are reasonably acceptable to Agent and the
Revolving Credit Lenders. Subject to the terms and conditions of said cash collateral
account, sums on deposit in said cash collateral account shall be applied (until exhausted)
to reduce the principal balance of the Revolving Credit on the last day of each Interest Period
attributable to the Eurocurrency-based Advances of such Revolving Credit Advance.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                     

2.14 Optional Reduction or Termination of Revolving Credit Aggregate Commitment.
Provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, CALP may upon at
least five Business Days prior written notice to the Agent, permanently reduce the Revolving Credit
Aggregate Commitment in whole at any time, or in part from time to time, without premium or
penalty, provided that: (i) each partial reduction of the Revolving Credit Aggregate Commitment
shall be in an aggregate amount equal to Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) or a larger integral
multiple of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000); (ii) each reduction shall be accompanied by the
payment of the Revolving Credit Commitment Fee, if any, accrued to the date of such reduction; (iii)
the Borrowers shall prepay in accordance with the terms hereof the amount, if any, by which the
aggregate unpaid principal amount of Advances outstanding hereunder, plus the aggregate undrawn
amount of outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations, exceeds the amount of the then applicable
Revolving Credit Aggregate Commitment as so reduced, together with interest thereon to the date

##### 



of prepayment; and (iv) no reduction shall reduce the Revolving Credit Aggregate Commitment to
an amount which is less than the aggregate undrawn amount of any Letters of Credit outstanding at
such time; provided, however that if the termination or reduction of the Revolving Credit Aggregate
Commitment requires the prepayment of a Eurocurrency-based Advance and such termination or
reduction is made on a day other than the last Business Day of the then current Interest Period
applicable to such Eurocurrency-based Advance, then, pursuant to Section 11.1, the Borrowers shall
compensate the Revolving Credit Lenders for any losses. Reductions of the Revolving Credit
Aggregate Commitment and any accompanying prepayments of Advances of the Revolving Credit
shall be distributed by Agent to each Revolving Credit Lender in accordance with such Revolving
Credit Lenders Revolving Credit Percentage thereof, and will not be available for reinstatement by
or readvance to the Borrowers, and any accompanying prepayments of Advances of the Swing Line
shall be distributed by Agent to the Swing Line Lender and will not be available for reinstatement
by or readvance to the Borrowers. Any reductions of the Revolving Credit Aggregate Commitment
hereunder shall reduce each Revolving Credit Lenders portion thereof proportionately (based on the
applicable Revolving Credit Percentages), and shall be permanent and irrevocable. Any payments
made pursuant to this Section shall be applied first to outstanding Prime-based Advances under the
Revolving Credit, next to Swing Line Advances and then to Eurocurrency-based Advances of the
Revolving Credit.

2.15 Application of Advances. Advances of the Revolving Credit (including Swing Line
Advances) shall be available, subject to the terms hereof, for general corporate purposes, including
the funding of the acquisition of Eligible Properties by the Borrowers, including any reimbursement
of any customary due diligence expenditures and closing costs.

court or administrative or governmental authority charged with the administration thereof
shall either (i) impose, modify or cause to be deemed applicable any reserve, special deposit,

held by, or deposits in or for the account of, Issuing Lender or any Revolving Credit Lender
or (ii) impose on Issuing Lender or any Revolving Credit Lender any other condition
regarding this Agreement, the Letters of Credit or any participations in such Letters of Credit,
and the result of any event referred to in clause (i) or (ii) above shall be to increase the cost

of the Letters of Credit (which increase in cost or expense shall be determined by the Issuing
Lenders or such Lenders reasonable allocation of the aggregate of such cost increases and
expenses resulting from such events), then, upon demand by the Issuing Lender or such
Lender, as the case may be, the applicable Account Party shall, within thirty (30) days
following demand for payment, pay to Issuing Lender or such Lender, as the case may be,

which shall be sufficient to compensate the Issuing Lender or such Lender for such increased
cost and expense, together with interest on each such amount from ten (10) days after the

Account Party, shall be conclusive evidence, absent manifest error, as to the amount thereof.

in clause (a) above shall be nonrefundable under all circumstances, shall be payable semi-annually
in advance (or such lesser period, if applicable, for Letters of Credit issued with
stated expiration dates of less than six months) upon the issuance of each such Letter of
Credit, and each six months thereafter, and shall be calculated on the basis of a 360 day year
and assessed for the actual number of days from the date of the issuance thereof to the stated
expiration thereof.

| | (a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this clause (a) (including, without
limitation, the last sentence thereof), the Borrowers and each applicable Account Party agree
to pay to the Issuing Lender, on the day on which the Issuing Lender shall honor a draft or
other demand for payment presented or made under any Letter of Credit, an amount equal
to the amount paid by the Issuing Lender in respect of such draft or other demand under such
Letter of Credit and all expenses paid or incurred by the Agent relative thereto. Unless the
Borrowers or the applicable Account Party shall have made such payment to the Agent for
the account of the Issuing Lender on such day, upon each such payment by the Issuing
Lender, the Agent shall be deemed to have disbursed to the Borrowers or the applicable
Account Party, and the Borrowers or the applicable Account Party shall be deemed to have
elected to substitute for its reimbursement obligation, with respect to Letters of Credit
denominated in Dollars, a Prime-based Advance of the Revolving Credit for the account of
the Revolving Credit Lenders in an amount equal to the amount so paid by the Issuing
Lender in respect of such draft or other demand under such Letter of Credit. Such Prime-based
Advance shall be deemed disbursed notwithstanding any failure to satisfy any
conditions for disbursement of any Advance set forth in Section 2 hereof and, to the extent
of the Advances so disbursed (and whether or not said conditions for disbursement have been
satisfied, as aforesaid), the Reimbursement Obligation of the Borrowers or the applicable
Account Party under this Section 3.6 shall be deemed satisfied.
|
| | (b) If the Issuing Lender shall honor a draft or other demand for payment
presented or made under any Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender shall provide notice thereof
to the Borrowers and the applicable Account Party on the date such draft or demand is
honored, and to each Revolving Credit Lender on such date unless the Borrowers or
applicable Account Party shall have satisfied its reimbursement obligation under Section
3.6(a) hereof by payment to the Agent on such date. The Issuing Lender shall further make
good faith diligent efforts to provide notice to the Borrowers or applicable Account Party
prior to honoring any such draft or other demand for payment, but the giving of, or the failure
to provide such notice, shall not affect the rights or obligations of the Issuing Lender with
respect to any Letter of Credit or the rights and obligations of the parties hereto, including
without limitation the obligations of the Borrowers or applicable Account Party under
Section 3.6(a) hereof.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    
|
| | (c) Upon issuance by the Issuing Lender of each Letter of Credit hereunder, each
Revolving Credit Lender shall automatically acquire a pro rata participation interest in such
Letter of Credit and each related Letter of Credit Payment based on its respective Revolving
Credit Percentage. Each Revolving Credit Lender, on the date a draft or demand under any
Letter of Credit is honored (or the next succeeding Business Day if the notice required to be
given by Agent to the Revolving Credit Lenders under Section 3.6(b) hereof is not given to
the Revolving Credit Lenders prior to 2:00 p.m. (Detroit time) on such date of draft or
demand), shall provide its Revolving Credit Percentage of the amount paid by the Issuing

| | Lender, and not reimbursed by the Borrowers or applicable Account Party on such day, in
immediately available funds at the principal office of the Agent for the account of Issuing
Lender. If and to the extent such Lender shall not have made such pro rata portion available
to the Agent, such Lender, the Borrowers and the applicable Account Party severally agree
to pay to the Issuing Lender forthwith on demand such amount together with interest thereon,
for each day from the date such amount was paid by the Issuing Lender until such amount
is so made available to the Agent at a per annum rate equal to the interest rate applicable
during such period to the related Advance deemed to have been disbursed under Section
3.6(a) in respect of the reimbursement obligation of the Borrowers and the applicable
Account Party, as set forth in Section 2.4(c)(i) or 2.4(c)(ii) hereof, as the case may be. The
Issuing Lender shall make good faith diligent efforts to provide notice of the failure of any
Lender to comply with its obligations under this clause (c), but the giving of, or failure to
give such notice shall not affect the obligations of the Borrowers and the applicable Account
Party hereunder. If such Lender shall pay such amount to the Agent for the account of
Issuing Lender together with such interest, such amount so paid shall be deemed to constitute
an Advance by such Lender disbursed in respect of the reimbursement obligation of the
Borrowers or applicable Account Party under Section 3.6(a) hereof for purposes of this
Agreement, effective as of the dates applicable under said Section 3.6(a). The failure of any
Revolving Credit Lender to make its pro rata portion of any such amount paid by the Issuing
Lender available to the Agent for the account of Issuing Lender shall not relieve any other
Revolving Credit Lender of its obligation to make available its pro rata portion of such
amount, but no Revolving Credit Lender shall be responsible for failure of any other
Revolving Credit Lender to make such pro rata portion available to the Agent for the account
of Issuing Lender.

| | (d) Each of the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement and in each of
the other Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the date of the

6. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

Each of the Borrowers represents and warrants and such representations and warranties shall survive
until the Revolving Credit Maturity Date and thereafter until the expiration of all Letters of Credit and the
final irrevocable payment in full of the Indebtedness and the performance by Borrowers of all other
obligations under this Agreement:

6.1. Authority. Each Borrower is duly organized and existing in good standing under the laws of the
State or jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization, as the case may be; and each Borrower is duly
qualified and authorized to do business as a foreign entity in each jurisdiction where the character of its
assets or the nature of its activities makes such qualification necessary and where failure to be so
qualified could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

6.2. Due Authorization  Borrowers. Execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, the
other Loan Documents and any other documents and instruments required under or in connection with this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents (or to be so executed and delivered), and the issuance of the Notes by
Borrowers (if requested) are within each Borrowers powers, have been duly authorized, are not in
contravention of law or the terms of such Borrowers organizational documents and, except as have been
previously obtained or as referred to in Section 6.13, below, do not require the consent or approval,
material to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, of any governmental
body, agency or authority.

6.3. Liens. There are no security interests in, liens, mortgages, or other encumbrances on and no
financing statements on file with respect to any Property of any Borrower or any Non-Borrowing Subsidiary
except for Liens permitted pursuant to Section 8.2.

6.4. Taxes. Each of the Borrowers has filed on or before their respective due dates or within the
applicable grace periods, all federal, state, local and foreign income tax returns which are required to be
filed or has obtained extensions for filing such tax returns and is not delinquent in filing such returns in
accordance with such extensions and has paid all taxes which have become due pursuant to those returns or
pursuant to any assessments received by any such party, as the case may be, to the extent such taxes have
become due, except to the extent such tax payments are being actively contested in good faith by appropriate
proceedings and with respect to which adequate provision has been made on the books of such Borrower as may
be required by GAAP.

6.5. No Defaults. To the best knowledge of the Borrowers, there exists no default under the
provisions of any instrument evidencing any indebtedness for borrowed money of any Borrower or any
Non-Borrowing Subsidiary which is permitted hereunder or of any agreement relating thereto

which could
reasonably be expected to have, by itself or in combination with any other defaults under such documents, a
Material Adverse Effect.

6.6. Enforceability of Agreement and Loan Documents  Borrowers. This Agreement, each of the other
Loan Documents to which Borrowers are a party, and all other certificates, agreements and documents executed
and delivered by Borrowers under or in connection herewith or therewith have each been duly executed and
delivered by their respective duly authorized officers and constitute the valid and binding obligations of
Borrowers, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, except as enforcement thereof may be
limited by applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium or similar
laws affecting the enforcement of creditors rights, generally and by general principles of equity
(regardless of whether enforcement is considered in a proceeding in law or equity).

6.7. Compliance with Laws. Except as disclosed on Schedule 6.7, each of the Borrowers and each of
the Non-Borrowing Subsidiaries has complied with all applicable Requirements of Law, except to the extent
that failure to comply therewith could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; and
except as set forth in Schedule 6.7 hereof, but without limiting the generality of Section 6.9, there is no
pending or, to the knowledge of Borrowers threatened, litigation, action, proceeding or controversy affecting
any Borrower or any Non-Borrowing Subsidiary, and no pending or, to the knowledge of Borrowers, threatened
complaint, notice or inquiry to any Borrower or any Non-Borrowing Subsidiary, regarding potential liability
of any Borrower or any Non-Borrowing Subsidiary for non-compliance with any Requirements of Law, except for
such matters as could not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

6.8. Non-contravention  Borrowers. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents and any other documents and instruments required under or in connection with this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents by each of the Borrowers are not in contravention of the terms of any
indenture, agreement or undertaking to which any such Borrower is a party or by which its or their properties
are bound or affected where such violation could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

6.9. No Litigation. Except for De Minimis Matters or as set forth on Schedule 6.9 hereof, there is
no suit, action, proceeding, including, without limitation, any bankruptcy proceeding, or governmental
investigation pending against or to the knowledge of the Borrowers, threatened against any Borrower or any
Non-Borrowing Subsidiary (other than any suit, action or proceeding in which such Borrower or such
Non-Borrowing Subsidiary is the plaintiff and in which no counterclaim or cross-claim against such other
Borrower or such other Non-Borrowing Subsidiary has been filed), nor has any Borrower or any Non-Borrowing
Subsidiary or, to the knowledge of the Borrowers, any of its or their officers, members, managers, or
directors, as the case may be, been subject to any suit, action, proceeding or governmental investigation as
a result of which any such officer, member, manager or director or partner is or may be entitled to
indemnification by any Borrower or any Non-Borrowing Subsidiary, as applicable, which suits, actions,
proceedings or governmental investigations are reasonably likely to be resolved adversely to such Borrower or
such Non-

Effect. Except as set forth on Schedule 6.9, to the best knowledge of the Borrowers, there is not

order of any court, government, department, commission, agency, instrumentality or arbitrator nor is any
Borrower or any Non-Borrowing Subsidiary in violation of any applicable order, injunction, decree or
requirement of any governmental body or court where such matters could reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect.

6.10. Consents, Approvals and Filings, Etc. Except as have been previously obtained, no
authorization, consent, approval, license, qualification or formal exemption from, nor any filing,
declaration or registration with, any court, governmental agency or regulatory authority or any securities
exchange or any other person or party (whether or not governmental) is required in connection with the
execution, delivery and performance: (i) by any of the Borrowers of this Agreement, any of the other Loan
Documents to which they are a party, or any other documents or instruments to be executed and/or delivered by
Borrowers in connection therewith or herewith; or (ii) by Borrowers, of the liens, pledges, mortgages,
security interests or other encumbrances granted, conveyed or otherwise established (or to be granted,
conveyed or otherwise established) by or under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, except for such
filings to be made concurrently herewith as are required by the Collateral Documents to perfect liens in
favor of the Agent. To the best knowledge of the Borrowers, all such authorizations, consents, approvals,
licenses, qualifications, exemptions, filings, declarations and registrations which have previously been
obtained or made, as the case may be, are in full force and effect and are not the subject of any attack, or
to the knowledge of Borrowers threatened attack (in any material respect) by appeal or direct proceeding or
otherwise.

the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. None of the Borrowers is engaged principally,
or as one of its important activities, directly or indirectly, in the business of extending credit for the

of Credit) will be used by any Borrower to purchase or carry margin stock or will be made available by any
Borrower in any manner to any other Person to enable or assist such Person in purchasing or carrying margin
stock. Terms for which meanings are provided in Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve

| | (c) to the knowledge of the Borrowers, no conditions exist at, on or under any property now

##### 



present in all material
respects (subject to year-end adjustments in the case of interim statements) the financial condition of CALP
and the results of its operations for the periods covered thereby. The projections and pro forma financial
information contained in the materials referenced in this clause (a) are based upon good faith estimates and
assumptions believed by management of CALP to be reasonable at the time made, it being recognized by the
Lenders that such financial information as it relates to future events is not to be viewed as fact and that
actual results during the period or periods covered by such financial information may differ from the
projected results set forth therein.

(b)  Since December 31, 2001 through the Effective Date there has been no material adverse
change in the financial condition of CALP or CARS or their respective Subsidiaries taken as a whole, in each
case except to the extent disclosed in the 10-Q or 10-K (as applicable) report filed by CALP and CARS, for
the most recent fiscal period, as the case may be; to the best knowledge of Borrowers, neither CALP nor CARS
(or any of their respective Subsidiaries) has any contingent obligations (including any liability for taxes)
not disclosed by or reserved against in the December 31, 2001 balance sheets, as the case may be, except as
set forth on Schedule 6.20 hereof, and as of the Effective Date, there are no unrealized or anticipated
losses from any present commitment of Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries which contingent obligations and
losses in the aggregate could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

6.18. Financial Statements. To the knowledge of the Borrowers, all financial statements delivered
by the Borrowers to the Lenders prior to the Effective Date were prepared in accordance with GAAP
consistently applied and fairly present in all material respects the financial position and results of
operations of Borrowers for the periods covered thereby.

Borrower or any Subsidiary unless such transaction is otherwise permitted under this Agreement or is in the

and customary anti-assignment provisions contained in leases entered into by any such Person (as lessee) in
the ordinary course of its business, (a) enter into, or allow to exist, any agreement, document or instrument

other Loan Documents, (ii) does not materially adversely affect the interest of the Lenders as creditor under
this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other document or instrument in any respect, (iii) could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and (iv) in the case of the Equity Incentive Plan,
does not materially increase the amount or frequency of payment of any cash benefit, payable under such plan.

Aggregate Commitment shall be automatically and immediately terminated; (d) the Agent shall, upon being
directed to do so by the Majority Revolving Credit Lenders, demand immediate delivery of cash collateral, and
Borrowers and each Account Party agrees to deliver such cash collateral upon demand, in an amount equal to
the maximum amount that may be available to be drawn at any time prior to the stated expiry of all
outstanding Letters of Credit, and (e) the Agent may, and shall, if directed to do so by the Majority
Revolving Credit Lenders or the Lenders, as applicable (subject to

the terms hereof), exercise any remedy
permitted by this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or law.

9.3. Rights Cumulative. No delay or failure of Agent and/or Lenders in exercising any right, power
or privilege hereunder shall affect such right, power or privilege, nor shall any single or partial exercise
thereof preclude any further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other power, right or privilege. The
rights of Agent and Lenders under this Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive of any right or remedies
which Lenders would otherwise have.

9.4. Waiver by Borrowers of Certain Laws. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Borrower
hereby agrees to waive, and does hereby absolutely and irrevocably waive and relinquish the benefit and
advantage of any valuation, stay, appraisement, extension or redemption laws now existing or which may
hereafter exist, which, but for this provision, might be applicable to any sale made under the judgment,
order or decree of any court, on any claim for interest on the Notes, or any security interest or mortgage
contemplated by or granted under or in connection with this Agreement. These waivers have been voluntarily
given, with full knowledge of the consequences thereof.

9.5. Waiver of Defaults. No Event of Default shall be waived by the Lenders except in a writing
signed by an officer of the Agent in accordance with Section 13.12 hereof. No single or partial exercise of
any right, power or privilege hereunder, nor any delay in the exercise thereof, shall preclude other or
further exercise of their rights by Agent or the Lenders. No waiver of any Event of Default shall extend to
any other or further Event of Default. No forbearance on the part of the Agent or the Lenders in enforcing
any of their rights shall constitute a waiver of any of their rights. Borrowers expressly agree that this
Section may not be waived or modified by the Lenders or Agent by course of performance, estoppel or otherwise.

9.6. Set Off. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender
may at any time and from time to time, without notice to the Borrowers but subject to the provisions of
Section 10.3 hereof (any requirement for such notice being expressly waived by the Borrowers), set off and
apply against any and all of the obligations of the Borrowers now or hereafter existing under this Agreement,
whether owing to such Lender or any other Lender or the Agent, any and all deposits (general or special, time
or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender to
or for the credit or the account of any Borrower and any property of any Borrower from time to time in
possession of such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such deposits held or indebtedness owing by such
Lender may be contingent and unmatured and regardless of whether any Collateral then held by Agent or any
Lender is adequate to cover the Indebtedness. Promptly following any such setoff, such Lender shall give
written notice to Agent and to Borrowers of the occurrence thereof. The Borrowers hereby grant to the Lenders
and the Agent a lien on and security interest in all such deposits, indebtedness and property as collateral
security for the payment and performance of all of the obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement. The
rights of each Lender under this Section 9.6 are in addition

payment to be made by Borrowers is due that Borrowers do not intend to remit such payment, the Agent
may, in its sole discretion and without obligation to do so, assume that the Borrowers have remitted
such payment when so due and the Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to each
Lender on such payment date an amount equal to such Lenders share of such assumed payment. If
Borrowers have not in fact remitted such payment to the Agent each Lender shall forthwith on demand
repay to the Agent the amount of such assumed payment made available or transferred to such Lender,

made available by the Agent to such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Agent at a rate
per annum equal to (i) for Prime-based Advances, the Federal Funds Effective Rate (daily average), as
the same may vary from time to time, and (ii) with respect to Eurocurrency-based Advances, Agents
aggregate marginal cost (including the cost of maintaining any required reserves or deposit insurance
and of any fees, penalties, overdraft charges or other costs or expenses incurred by Agent) of
carrying such amount.

as the case may be, such certificates or certified copy receipts as the Agent or such Lender
or Lenders shall reasonably require as proof of the payment by the Borrowers, of any such
taxes payable by the Borrowers.

As used herein, the terms tax, taxes and taxation include all taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges,
fees, deductions and withholdings and any restrictions or conditions resulting in a charge together with
interest (and any taxes payable upon the amounts paid or payable pursuant to this Section 10.1) thereon and
fines and penalties with respect thereto which may be imposed by reason of any violation or default with
respect to the law regarding such tax, assessed as a result of or in connection with the payment or delivery
of funds into or out of any jurisdiction other than the United States (whether assessed against any of the
Borrowers, Agent or any of the Lenders). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrowers shall be reimbursed by the
applicable Lender for any payment made by Borrowers under this Section 10.1 if the applicable Lender is not
in compliance with its obligations under Section 13.14.

10.2. Application of Proceeds of Collateral. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Agreement, after an Event of Default, the proceeds of any Collateral, together with any offsets, voluntary
payments by CARS, any Borrower or any Subsidiary of a Co-Borrower or others and any other sums received or
collected in respect of the Indebtedness, shall be applied (after payment of fees and expenses incurred by
the Agent to enforce this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents) first, to the Advances of the
Revolving Credit Loan and any Reimbursement Obligations on a pro rata basis (or in such order and manner as
determined by the Majority Revolving Credit Lenders; subject, however, to the applicable Percentages of the
loans held by each of the Lenders), next, to any other Indebtedness on a pro rata basis, and then, if there
is any excess, to Borrowers. The application of such proceeds and other sums to the Advances of the Revolving
Credit Loan and the Reimbursement Obligations shall be based on each Lenders Percentage of the aggregate of
the loans.

10.3. Pro-Rata Recovery. If any Lender shall obtain any payment or other recovery (whether
voluntary, involuntary, by application of offset or otherwise) on account of principal of, or interest on,
any of the Indebtedness in excess of its pro rata share of payments then or thereafter obtained by all
Lenders upon principal of and interest on all Indebtedness, such Lender shall purchase from the other Lenders
such participations in the Revolving Credit and/or Reimbursement Obligation held by them as shall be
necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment or other recovery ratably in accordance
with their pro rata Percentage with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of the excess
payment or other recovery is thereafter recovered from such purchasing holder, the purchase shall be
rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

11. CHANGES IN LAW OR CIRCUMSTANCES; INCREASED COSTS

11.1. Reimbursement of Prepayment Costs. If any Borrower makes any payment of principal with
respect to any Eurocurrency-based Advance on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period
applicable thereto (whether voluntarily, by acceleration, or otherwise), or if any Borrower converts or
refunds (or attempts to convert or refund) any such Advance on any day other than the last day of the
Interest Period applicable thereto; or if any Borrower fails to borrow, refund or convert into any
Eurocurrency-based Advance after notice has been given by such Borrower to Agent in accordance with the terms
hereof requesting such Advance, or if any Borrower fails to make any payment of principal or interest in
respect of a Eurocurrency-based Advance when due, the applicable Borrower shall reimburse Agent for itself
and/or on behalf of any Lender, as the case may be, on demand for any resulting loss, cost or expense
incurred (excluding the loss of any Applicable Margin) by Agent and Lenders, as the case may be as a result
thereof, including, without limitation, any such loss, cost or expense incurred in obtaining, liquidating,
employing or redeploying deposits from third parties, whether or not Agent and Lenders, as the case may be,
shall have funded or committed to fund such Advance. Such amount payable by such Borrower to Agent for
itself and/or on behalf of any Lender, as the case may be, may include, without limitation, an amount equal
to the excess, if any, of (a) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the amount so prepaid, or
not so borrowed, refunded or converted, for the period from the date of such prepayment or of such failure to
borrow, refund or convert, through the last day of the relevant Interest Period, at the applicable rate of
interest for said Advance(s) provided under this Agreement, over (b) the amount of interest (as reasonably
determined by Agent and Lenders, as the case may be) which would have accrued to Agent and Lenders, as the
case may be, on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in
the interbank eurocurrency market. Calculation of any amounts payable to any Lender under this paragraph
shall be made as though such Lender shall have actually funded or committed to fund the relevant Advance
through the purchase of an underlying deposit in an amount equal to the amount of such Advance and having a
maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period; provided, however, that any Lender may fund any
Eurocurrency-based Advance in any manner it deems fit and the foregoing assumptions shall be utilized only
for the purpose of the calculation of amounts payable under this paragraph. Upon the written request of
Borrowers, Agent and Lenders shall deliver to Borrowers a certificate setting forth

the basis for determining
such losses, costs and expenses, which certificate shall be conclusively presumed correct, absent manifest
error.

11.2. Eurocurrency Lending Office. For any Advance to which the Eurocurrency-based Rate is
applicable, if Agent or a Lender, as applicable, shall designate a Eurocurrency Lending Office which
maintains books separate from those of the rest of Agent or such Lender, Agent or such Lender, as the case
may be, shall have the option of maintaining and carrying the relevant Advance on the books of such
Eurocurrency Lending Office.

11.3. Circumstances Affecting Eurocurrency-based Rate Availability. If with respect to any Interest
Period, Agent or the Majority Revolving Credit Lenders (after consultation with Agent) shall determine that,
by reason of circumstances affecting the foreign exchange and interbank markets generally, deposits in
eurodollars, in the applicable amounts are not being offered to the Agent or such Lenders for such Interest
Period, then Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrowers. Thereafter, until Agent notifies the
Borrowers that such circumstances no longer exist, (i) the obligation of Lenders to make Eurocurrency-based
Advances, and the right of the Borrowers to convert an Advance to or refund an Advance as a
Eurocurrency-based Advance, as the case may be, shall be suspended, and (ii) the Borrowers shall repay in
full (or cause to be repaid in full) the then outstanding principal amount of each such Eurocurrency-based
Advance covered hereby, together with accrued interest thereon, any amounts payable under Sections 13.1
hereof, and all other amounts payable hereunder on the last day of the then current Interest Period
applicable to such Advance. Upon the date for repayment as aforesaid and unless CALP notifies Agent to the
contrary within two (2) Business Days after receiving a notice from Agent pursuant to this Section, such
outstanding principal amount shall be converted to a Prime-based Advance as of the last day of such Interest
Period.

11.4. Laws Affecting Eurocurrency-based Advance Availability. If, after the date of this Agreement,
the introduction of, or any change in, any applicable law, rule or regulation or in the interpretation or
administration thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration
thereof, or compliance by any of the Lenders (or any of their respective Eurocurrency Lending Offices) with
any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, shall make it
unlawful or impossible for any of the Lenders (or any of their respective Eurocurrency Lending Offices) to
honor its obligations hereunder to make or maintain any Advance with interest at the Eurocurrency-based Rate,
such Lender shall forthwith give notice thereof to CALP and to Agent. Thereafter, (a) the obligations of
Lenders to make Eurocurrency-based Advances and the right of any Borrower to convert an Advance into or
refund an Advance as a Eurocurrency-based Advance shall be suspended and thereafter the Borrowers may select
as Applicable Interest Rates only those which remain available and which are permitted to be selected
hereunder, and (b) if any of the Lenders may not lawfully continue to maintain an Advance to the end of the
then current Interest Period applicable thereto as a Eurocurrency-based Advance the applicable Advance shall
immediately be converted to a Prime-based Advance and the Prime-based Rate shall be applicable thereto for
the remainder of such Interest Period. For purposes of this Section, a change in law, rule, regulation,
interpretation or administration shall include, without

effective on the basis of a law, rule, regulation, interpretation or administration presently in force, the
effective date of which change is delayed by the terms of such law, rule, regulation, interpretation or

11.5. Increased Cost of Eurocurrency-based Advances. If the adoption after the date of this
Agreement of, or any change after the date of this Agreement in, any applicable law, rule or regulation of or
in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable
agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by Agent or any of the

| | (b) shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve (including, without limitation, any
imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), special deposit or similar
requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any of the
Lenders (or any of their respective Eurocurrency Lending Offices) or shall impose on any of the
Lenders (or any of their respective Eurocurrency Lending Offices) or the foreign exchange and
interbank markets any other condition affecting any Advance;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the costs to any of the Lenders of maintaining any part
of the Indebtedness hereunder as a Eurocurrency-based Advance or to reduce the amount of any sum received or
receivable by any of the Lenders under this Agreement in respect of a Eurocurrency-based Advance, whether
with respect to Advances to any of the Borrowers, then such Lender shall promptly notify Agent, and Agent (or
such Lender, as aforesaid) shall promptly notify the Borrowers of such fact and demand compensation therefor
and, within fifteen (15) days after such notice, the applicable Borrower agrees to pay to such Lender such
additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Lenders for such increased cost or reduction.
Agent will promptly notify the Borrowers of any event of which it has knowledge which will entitle Lenders to
compensation pursuant to this Section, or which will cause the Borrowers to incur additional liability under
Section 11.1 hereof, provided that Agent shall incur no liability whatsoever to the Lenders, the Borrowers in
the event it fails to do so. A certificate of Agent (or such Lender, if applicable) setting forth the basis
for determining such additional amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or Lenders shall be
conclusively presumed to be correct save for manifest error. For purposes of this

76

##### 



Section, a change in law,
rule, regulation, interpretation, administration, request or directive shall include, without limitation, any
change made or which becomes effective on the basis of a law, rule, regulation, interpretation,
administration, request or directive presently in force, the effective date of which change is delayed by the
terms of such law, rule, regulation, interpretation, administration, request or directive.

11.6. Capital Adequacy and Other Increased Costs. In the event that after the Effective Date the
adoption of or any change in any applicable law, treaty, rule or regulation (whether domestic or foreign) now
or hereafter in effect and whether or not presently applicable to any Lender or Agent, or any interpretation
or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration
thereof, or compliance by any Lender or Agent with any guideline, request or directive of any such authority
(whether or not having the force of law), including any risk based capital guidelines, affects or would
affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or Agent (or any
corporation controlling such Lender or Agent) and such Lender or Agent, as the case may be, determines that
the amount of such capital is increased by or based upon the existence of such Lenders or Agents
obligations or Advances hereunder and such increase has the effect of reducing the rate of return on such
Lenders or Agents (or such controlling corporations) capital as a consequence of such obligations or
Advances hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or Agent (or such controlling corporation) could
have achieved but for such circumstances (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital
adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender or Agent to be material (collectively, Increased Costs), then
Agent or such Lender shall notify the Borrowers, and thereafter the applicable Borrower shall pay to such
Lender or Agent, as the case may be, from time to time, upon request by such Lender or Agent, additional
amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or Agent (or such controlling corporation) for any increase in
the amount of capital and reduced rate of return which such Lender or Agent reasonably determines to be
allocable to the existence of such Lenders or Agents obligations or Advances hereunder; notwithstanding the
forgoing, however, the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any increased costs under Sections 11.3, 11.5
or 3.4(c) for any period ending prior to the date that is ninety (90) days prior to the making of a Lenders
initial request for such additional amounts unless the applicable change in law or other event resulting in
such increased costs is effective retroactively to a date more than ninety (90) days prior to the date of
such request, in which case a Lenders request for such additional amounts relating to the period more than
ninety (90) days prior to the making of the request must be given not more than ninety (90) days after such
Lender becomes aware of the applicable change in law or other event resulting in such increased costs. A
statement as to the amount of such compensation, prepared in good faith and in reasonable detail by such
Lender or Agent, as the case may be, shall be submitted by such Lender or by Agent to the Borrowers,
reasonably promptly after becoming aware of any event described in this Section 11.6 and shall be conclusive,
absent manifest error in computation.

11.7. Substitution of Lenders. If (a) the obligation of any Lender to make Eurocurrency-based
Advances has been suspended pursuant to Section 11.3 or 11.5 or (b) any Lender has demanded compensation
under Section 3.4(c), 11.1 or 11.5, (in each case, an Affected Lender), then the Borrowers shall have the
right (subject to Section 13.9 hereof), with the assistance of the

77

##### 



Agent, to seek a substitute Lender or
Lenders (which may be one or more of the Lenders (the Purchasing Lender or Purchasing Lenders) to
purchase the Advances of the Revolving Credit and assume the commitments (including without limitation its
participations in Swing Line Advances and Letters of Credit) under this Agreement of such Affected Lender.
The Affected Lender shall be obligated to sell its Advances of the Revolving Credit and assign its
commitments to such Purchasing Lender or Purchasing Lenders within fifteen (15) days after receiving notice
from Borrowers requiring it to do so, at an aggregate price equal to the outstanding principal amount
thereof, plus unpaid interest accrued thereon up to but excluding the date of the sale. In connection with
any such sale, and as a condition thereof, Borrowers shall pay to the Affected Lender all fees accrued for
its account hereunder to but excluding the date of such sale, plus, if demanded by the Affected Lender within
ten (10) Business Days after such sale, (i) the amount of any compensation which would be due to the Affected
Lender under Section 11.1 if the applicable Borrower has prepaid the outstanding Eurocurrency-based Advances
of the Affected Lender on the date of such sale and (ii) any additional compensation accrued for its account
under Sections 3.4(c), 11.7 and 11.9 to but excluding said date. Upon such sale, the Purchasing Lender or
Purchasing Lenders shall assume the Affected Lenders commitment, and the Affected Lender shall be released
from its obligations hereunder to a corresponding extent. If any Purchasing Lender is not already one of the
Lenders, the Affected Lender, as assignor, such Purchasing Lender, as assignee, CALP and the Agent, shall
enter into an Assignment Agreement pursuant to Section 13.9 hereof, whereupon such Purchasing Lender shall be
a Lender party to this Agreement, shall be deemed to be an assignee hereunder and shall have all the rights
and obligations of a Lender with a Revolving Credit Percentage equal to its ratable share of the then
applicable Revolving Credit Aggregate Commitment. In connection with any assignment pursuant to this Section
11.10, the Borrowers or the Purchasing Lender shall pay to the Agent the administrative fee for processing
such assignment referred to in Section 13.9.

11.8. Right of Lenders to Fund through Branches and Affiliates. Each Lender (including without
limitation the Swing Line Lender) may, if it so elects, fulfill its commitment as to any Advance hereunder by
designating a branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Advance; provided that (a) such Lender shall
remain solely responsible for the performances of its obligations hereunder and (b) no such designation shall
result in any material increased costs to the Borrowers.

12. AGENT

12.1. Appointment of Agent. Each Lender and the holder of each Note irrevocably appoints and
authorizes the Agent to act on behalf of such Lender or holder under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents and to exercise such powers hereunder and thereunder as are specifically delegated to Agent by the
terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as may be reasonably incidental thereto, including
without limitation the power to execute or authorize the execution of financing or similar statements or
notices, and other documents. In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement, the Agent shall
act solely as agent of the Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation
towards or relationship of agency or trust with or for Borrowers. Each Lender agrees (which agreement shall
survive any termination of this

78

##### 



Agreement) to reimburse Agent for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses
(including house and outside attorneys fees and disbursements) incurred by Agent hereunder or in connection
herewith or with an Event of Default or in enforcing the obligations of Borrowers under this Agreement or the
other Loan Documents or any other instrument executed pursuant hereto, and for which Agent is not reimbursed
by Borrowers, pro rata according to such Lenders Percentage, but excluding any such expense resulting from
Agents gross negligence or wilful misconduct. Agent shall not be required to take any action under the Loan
Documents, or to prosecute or defend any suit in respect of the Loan Documents, unless indemnified to its
satisfaction by the Lenders, pro rata according to each Lenders Percentage, against loss, costs, liability
and expense (excluding liability resulting from its gross negligence or wilful misconduct). If any indemnity
furnished to Agent shall become impaired, it may call for additional indemnity and cease to do the acts
indemnified against until such additional indemnity is given.

12.2. Deposit Account with Agent. Borrowers hereby authorize Agent, in Agents sole discretion, upon
notice to Borrower to charge its general deposit account(s), if any, maintained with Agent for the amount of
any principal, interest, or other amounts or costs due under this Agreement when the same become due and
payable under the terms of this Agreement or the Notes.

12.3. Scope of Agents Duties. The Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities except those
expressly set forth herein, and shall not, by reason of this Agreement or otherwise, have a fiduciary
relationship with any Lender (and no implied covenants or other obligations shall be read into this Agreement
against the Agent). None of Agent, its Affiliates nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees
or agents shall be liable to any Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under this
Agreement or any document executed pursuant hereto, or in connection herewith or therewith with the consent
or at the request of the Majority Revolving Credit Lenders (or all of the Lenders for those acts requiring
consent of all of the Lenders) (except for its or their own wilful misconduct or gross negligence), nor be
responsible for or have any duties to ascertain, inquire into or verify (a) any recitals or warranties made
by CARS, the Borrowers or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Co-Borrowers, or any officer thereof contained
herein or therein, (b) the effectiveness, enforceability, validity or due execution of this Agreement or any
document executed pursuant hereto or any security thereunder, (c) the performance by Borrowers of their
respective obligations hereunder or thereunder, or (d) the satisfaction of any condition hereunder or
thereunder, including without limitation the making of any Advance or the issuance of any Letter of Credit.
Agent and its Affiliates shall be entitled to rely upon any certificate, notice, document or other
communication (including any cable, telegraph, telex, facsimile transmission or oral communication) believed
by it to be genuine and correct and to have been sent or given by or on behalf of a proper person. Agent may
treat the payee of any Note as the holder thereof. Agent may employ agents and may consult with legal counsel
(who may be counsel for a Borrower), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and
shall not be liable to the Lenders (except as to money or property received by them or their authorized
agents), for the negligence or misconduct of any such agent selected by it with reasonable care or for any
action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the advice of such counsel,
accountants or experts.

##### 



12.4. Successor Agent. Agent may resign as such at any time upon at least thirty (30) days prior
notice to Borrowers and all Lenders. If Agent at any time shall resign or if the office of Agent shall become
vacant for any other reason, Majority Revolving Credit Lenders shall, by written instrument, appoint
successor agent(s) satisfactory to such Majority Revolving Credit Lenders, and, so long as no Default or
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to Borrowers. Such successor agent shall thereupon become
the Agent hereunder, as applicable, and shall be entitled to receive from the prior Agent such documents of
transfer and assignment as such successor Agent may reasonably request. Any such successor Agent shall be a
commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States or any state thereof and shall have a combined
capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000. If a successor is not so appointed or does not accept such
appointment before the resigning Agents resignation becomes effective, the resigning Agent may appoint a
temporary successor to act until such appointment by the Majority Revolving Credit Lenders is made and
accepted or if no such temporary successor is appointed as provided above by the resigning Agent, the
Majority Revolving Credit Lenders shall thereafter perform all of the duties of the resigning Agent hereunder
until such appointment by the Majority Revolving Credit Lenders is made and accepted. Such successor Agent
shall succeed to all of the rights and obligations of the resigning Agent as if originally named. The
resigning Agent shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Agent all moneys at the time held
by the resigning Agent hereunder after deducting therefrom its expenses for which it is entitled to be
reimbursed. Upon such succession of any such successor Agent, the resigning agent shall be discharged from
its duties and obligations hereunder, except for its gross negligence or wilful misconduct arising prior to
its resignation hereunder, and the provisions of this Article 12 shall continue in effect for the benefit of
the resigning Agent in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Agent.

12.5. Agent in its Individual Capacity. Comerica Bank, its Affiliates and their respective
successors and assigns, shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Lender and may exercise
or refrain from exercising the same as though Comerica Bank were not the Agent. Comerica Bank and its
Affiliates may (without having to account therefor to any Lender) accept deposits from, lend money to, and
generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory or other business with Borrowers (or their
Subsidiaries) as if Comerica Bank were not acting as Agent hereunder, and may accept fees and other
consideration therefor without having to account for the same to the Lenders.

12.6. Credit Decisions. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently of Agent and each other
Lender and based on the financial statements of Borrowers and such other documents, information and
investigations as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit decision to extend credit hereunder from
time to time. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently of Agent and each other Lender and
based on such other documents, information and investigations as it shall deem appropriate at any time,
continue to make its own credit decisions as to exercising or not exercising from time to time any rights and
privileges available to it under this Agreement or any document executed pursuant hereto.

12.7. Authority of Agent to Enforce Notes and This Agreement. Each Lender, subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, authorizes the Agent with full power and authority as attorney-in-fact to
institute and maintain actions, suits or proceedings for the collection and

80

##### 



enforcement of the Notes and to
file such proofs of debt or other documents as may be necessary to have the claims of the Lenders allowed in
any proceeding relative to CARS or any Borrower or their respective creditors or affecting their respective
properties, and to take such other actions which Agent considers to be necessary or desirable for the
protection, collection and enforcement of the Notes, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

12.8. Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Agent and its Affiliates (to the extent
not reimbursed by Borrowers and/or the Guarantor, but without limiting any obligation of Borrowers and
Guarantor to make such reimbursement), ratably according to their respective Percentages, from and against
any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever
(including, without limitation, fees and disbursements of counsel) which may be imposed on, incurred by, or
asserted against the Agent and its Affiliates in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any of
the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or any action taken or omitted by the Agent
and its Affiliates under this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents; provided, however, that no Lender shall
be liable for any portion of such claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses resulting from the
Agents or its Affiliatess gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the foregoing,
each Lender agrees to reimburse the Agent and its Affiliates promptly upon demand for its ratable share of
any out-of-pocket expenses (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of counsel) incurred by the
Agent and its Affiliates in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration,
modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or
legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement or any of the other Loan
Documents, to the extent that the Agent and its Affiliates are not reimbursed for such expenses by Borrowers,
but without limiting the obligation of Borrowers to make such reimbursement. Each Lender agrees to reimburse
the Agent and its Affiliates promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any amounts owing to the Agent and
its Affiliates by the Lenders pursuant to this Section, provided that, if the Agent or its Affiliates is
subsequently reimbursed by the Borrowers for such amounts, it shall refund to the Lenders on a pro rata basis
the amount of any excess reimbursement. If the indemnity furnished to the Agent and its Affiliates under this
Section shall, in the judgment of the Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, the Agent may call for
additional indemnity from the Lenders and cease, or not commence, to take any action until such additional
indemnity is furnished.

12.9. Knowledge of Default; Copies of Notices. It is expressly understood and agreed that the Agent
shall be entitled to assume that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, unless the officers of
the Agent immediately responsible for matters concerning this Agreement shall have been notified in a writing
specifying such Event of Default and stating that such notice is a notice of default by a Lender or by
Borrowers. Upon receiving such a notice, the Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of such Event of Default
and provide each Lender with a copy of such notice and, shall endeavor to provide such notice to the Lenders
within three (3) Business Days (but without any liability whatsoever in the event of its failure to do so).
Agent shall also furnish the Lenders, promptly upon receipt, with copies of all other notices or other
information required to be provided by Borrowers and/or Guarantor hereunder.

12.10. Agents Authorization; Action by Lenders. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein,
whenever the Agent is authorized and empowered hereunder on behalf of the Lenders to give any approval or
consent, or to make any request, or to take any other action on behalf of the Lenders (including without
limitation the exercise of any right or remedy hereunder or under the other Loan Documents), the Agent shall
be required to give such approval or consent, or to make such request or to take such other action only when
so requested in writing by the Majority Revolving Credit Lenders or the Lenders, as applicable hereunder.
Action that may be taken by Majority Revolving Credit Lenders or all of the Lenders, as the case may be (as
provided for hereunder) may be taken (i) pursuant to a vote at a meeting (which may be held by telephone
conference call) as to which all of the Lenders have been given reasonable advance notice, or (ii) pursuant
to the written consent of the requisite Percentages of the Lenders as required hereunder, provided that all
of the Lenders are given reasonable advance notice of the requests for such consent.

12.11. Enforcement Actions by the Agent. Except as otherwise expressly provided under this Agreement
or in any of the other Loan Documents and subject to the terms hereof, Agent will take such action, assert
such rights and pursue such remedies under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as the Majority
Revolving Credit Lenders or all of the Lenders, as the case may be (as provided for hereunder), shall direct;
provided, however, that the Agent shall not be required to act or omit to act if, in the judgment of the
Agent, such action or omission may expose the Agent to personal liability or is contrary to this Agreement,
any of the Loan Documents or applicable law. Except as expressly provided above or elsewhere in this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents, no Lender (other than the Agent, acting in its capacity as agent)
shall be entitled to take any enforcement action of any kind under any of the Loan Documents.

12.12. Collateral Matters.

(a)  The Agent is authorized on behalf of all the Lenders, without the necessity of any
notice to or further consent from the Lenders, from time to time to take any action with respect to any
Collateral or the Collateral Documents which may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected security
interests in and Liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to the Loan Documents.

(b)  The Lenders agree, subject to the terms hereof, to release, and hereby irrevocably
authorize the Agent to release, any Lien granted to or held by the Agent upon any Collateral (i) upon
termination of the Revolving Credit Aggregate Commitment and payment in full of all Indebtedness payable
under this Agreement and under any other Loan Document; (ii) constituting property sold or to be sold or
disposed of as part of or in connection with any disposition expressly permitted hereunder (including the
sale or other disposition of any Eligible Property); (iii) if required under Section 13.1 hereof (without any
additional action on the part of the Majority Revolving Credit Lenders or any or all of the Lenders, as the
case may be), or (iv) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Majority Revolving Credit
Lenders, or all the Lenders, as the case may be, as provided in Section 13.12. Upon request by the Agent at
any time, the Lenders will

##### 



confirm in writing the Agents authority to release particular types or items of
Collateral pursuant to this Section 12.12(b).

12.13. Agents Fees. Until the Indebtedness has been repaid and discharged in full and no commitment
to fund any loan hereunder is outstanding, the Borrowers shall pay to the Agent, as applicable, an agency fee
on the terms set forth in that certain letter agreement between CALP and the Agent in effect on the date
hereof and any amendment or replacement fee letter entered into between CALP and Agent from time to time.
The Agents Fees described in this Section 12.13 shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

13. MISCELLANEOUS

13.1 Releases of Eligible Property and of Co-Borrowers. (a) At the written request of CALP, Agent
will promptly provide written confirmation of the release of an Eligible Property from the Borrowing Base, or
written release of the Mortgage taken on any Property pursuant to Section 7.15 or Section 7.18, as the case
may be, subject to the following conditions:

principal amount of Revolving Credit Advances plus Swing Line Advances hereunder to the Borrowers,
plus the outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations (in each case determined as aforesaid), shall exceed
the lesser of (i) the then applicable Revolving Credit Aggregate Commitment or (ii) the Borrowing

| | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| | (iii) Before and after giving effect to such release of Property, no Default or Event of
Default shall exist and be continuing.

Upon a release of a Property, the released Property will no longer be deemed an Eligible Property
under this Agreement, including for purposes of determining the Borrowing Base, or be subject to the making
of a Collateral Demand, and any Event of Default that relates solely to such Property shall be deemed cured.

(b)  If, as a result of the release of any Property owned by a Co-Borrower under clause (a) or
otherwise, the Borrowing Base is no longer comprised of any Properties owned by such Co-Borrower (and no such
Properties are subject to the making of a Collateral Demand), then, so long as no Default or Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing, the Agent shall provide a written release and termination of such
Co-Borrowers rights, obligations and liabilities under this Agreement, the Notes (if issued) and the other
Loan Documents (and such Co-Borrower shall no

longer be a party to this Agreement or be permitted to request
any Advances or the issuance of Letters of Credit hereunder), except for its liability to Agent and the
Lenders under Section 7.8 hereof or elsewhere herein, to the extent such liability to Agent and Lenders shall
be stated as continuing (or subject to reinstatement) according to the terms hereof.

13.2 Accounting Principles. Where the character or amount of any asset or liability or item of
income or expense is required to be determined or any consolidation or other accounting computation is
required to be made for the purposes of this Agreement, it shall be done, unless otherwise specified herein,
in accordance with GAAP. Furthermore, all financial statements required to be delivered hereunder, subject to
year-end audit adjustments thereto and the omission of footnote disclosure in the case of unaudited
statements, shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP.

13.3 Consent to Jurisdiction. Borrowers, Agent and Lenders hereby irrevocably submit to the
non-exclusive jurisdiction of any United States Federal Court or Michigan state court sitting in Detroit,
Michigan in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the Loan
Documents and Borrowers, Agent and Lenders hereby irrevocably agree that all claims in respect of such action
or proceeding may be heard and determined in any such United States Federal Court or Michigan state court.
Borrowers irrevocably consent to the service of any and all process in any such action or proceeding brought
in any court in or of the State of Michigan by the delivery of copies of such process to Borrowers at their
respective addresses specified on the signature page hereto or by certified mail directed to such address or
such other address as may be designated by Borrowers in a notice to the other parties that complies as to
delivery with the terms of Section 13.6. Nothing in this Section shall affect the right of the Lenders and
the Agent to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or limit the right of the Lenders or the
Agent (or any of them) to bring any such action or proceeding against CARS or any Borrower or any of its or
their property in the courts with subject matter jurisdiction of any other jurisdiction. Borrowers hereby
irrevocably waive any objection to the laying of venue of any such suit or proceeding in the above described
courts.

13.4 Law of Michigan. This Agreement and the Notes have been delivered at Detroit, Michigan, and
shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Michigan (without
regard to its conflict of laws provisions). Whenever possible each provision of this Agreement shall be
interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this
Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the
extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the
remaining provisions of this Agreement.

13.5 Interest. In the event the obligation of Borrowers to pay interest on the principal balance of
the Notes is or becomes in excess of the maximum interest rate which Borrowers are permitted by law to
contract or agree to pay, giving due consideration to the execution date of this Agreement, then, in that
event, the rate of interest applicable with respect to such Lenders Percentage shall be deemed to be
immediately reduced to such maximum rate and all previous payments in excess of the maximum rate shall be
deemed to have been payments in reduction of principal and not of interest.

assignment shall be effective unless Agent has received from the assignee (or from the
assigning Lender) an assignment fee of $3,500 for each such assignment.

In connection with any assignment, Borrowers and Agent shall be entitled to continue to deal solely and
directly with the assigning Lender in connection with the interest so assigned until (x) the Agent shall have
received a notice of assignment duly executed by the assigning Lender and an Assignment Agreement (with
respect thereto) duly executed by the assigning Lender and each assignee; and (y) the assigning Lender shall
have delivered to the Agent the original of each Note held by the assigning Lender under this Agreement.
From and after the date on which the Agent shall notify Borrowers and the assigning Lender that the foregoing
conditions shall have been satisfied and all consents (if any) required shall have been given, the assignee
thereunder shall be deemed to be a party to this Agreement. To the extent that rights and obligations
hereunder shall have been assigned to such assignee as provided in such notice of assignment (and Assignment
Agreement), such assignee shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents (including without limitation the right to receive fees payable hereunder in respect of
the period following such assignment). In addition, the assigning Lender, to the extent that rights and
obligations hereunder shall have been assigned by it as provided in such notice of assignment (and Assignment
Agreement), but not otherwise, shall relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

Within five (5) Business Days following Borrowers receipt of notice from the Agent that Agent has accepted
and executed a notice of assignment and the duly executed Assignment Agreement and assuming the Borrowers
have consented to such assignment (if their consent is required), Borrowers shall, to the extent applicable,
execute and deliver to the Agent in exchange for any surrendered Note, new Note(s) payable to the order of
the assignee in an amount equal to the amount assigned to it pursuant to such notice of assignment (and
Assignment Agreement), and with respect to the portion of the Indebtedness retained by the assigning Lender,
to the extent applicable, new Note(s) payable to the order of the assigning Lender in an amount equal to the
amount retained by such Lender hereunder shall be executed and delivered by the Borrowers. Agent, the
Lenders and the Borrowers acknowledge and agree that any such new Note(s) shall be given in renewal and
replacement of the surrendered Notes and shall not effect or constitute a novation or discharge of the
Indebtedness evidenced by any surrendered Note, and each such new Note may contain a provision confirming
such agreement. In addition, promptly following receipt of such Notes, Agent shall prepare and distribute to
Borrowers and each of the Lenders a revised Schedule 1.2 to this Agreement setting forth the applicable new
Percentages of the Lenders (including the assignee Lender), taking into account such assignment.

modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement without the consent of the
participant (other than a participant which is an Affiliate of such Lender), except for those
matters covered by Section 13.12(a) through (e) and (h) hereof (provided that a participant
may exercise approval rights over such matters only on an indirect basis, acting through such
Lender, and Borrowers, Agent and the other Lenders may continue to deal directly with such
Lender in connection with such Lenders rights and duties hereunder).

Borrowers agree that each participant shall be deemed to have the right of setoff under Section 9.6 hereof in
respect of its participation interest in amounts owing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to
the same extent as if the Indebtedness were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement, shall be
subject to the pro rata recovery provisions of Section 10.3 hereof and shall be entitled to the benefits of

participation agreement between the issuing Lender and the Person purchasing such participation, and none of
the Borrowers, the Agent and the other Lenders shall have any responsibility or obligation with respect
thereto, or to any Person to whom any such participation may be issued. No such participation shall relieve

is intended to or shall confer on any Person other than the respective parties hereto and thereto and
their successors and assignees and participants permitted hereunder and thereunder any benefit or any
legal or equitable right, remedy or other claim under this Agreement, the Notes or the other Loan
Documents.

13.10 Indulgence. No delay or failure of Agent and the Lenders in exercising any right, power or
privilege hereunder shall affect such right, power or privilege nor shall any single or partial exercise
thereof preclude any further exercise thereof, nor the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The
rights of Agent and the Lenders hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies
which Agent and the Lenders would otherwise have.

13.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, and each executed copy
shall constitute an original instrument, but such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same
instrument.

13.12 Amendment and Waiver. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other
Loan Document, nor consent to any departure by CARS or any Borrower or any Subsidiary of any Co-Borrower
therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Majority
Revolving Credit Lenders (or by the Agent at the written request of the Majority Revolving Credit Lenders)
or, if this Agreement expressly so requires with respect to the subject matter thereof, by all Lenders (and,
with respect to any amendments to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, by CARS, Borrowers or the
Subsidiaries which are signatories thereto), and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the
specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that no amendment, waiver
or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by all the Lenders, do any of the following: (a) increase any
Lenders commitments hereunder, (b) reduce the principal, or interest, or any Fees, or other amounts payable
hereunder, (c) postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal, or interest, or any Fees, or other
amounts payable hereunder, (d) waive any Event of Default specified in Sections 9.1(a) or (b) hereof, (e)
except as expressly permitted hereunder, or under the Collateral Documents, release or defer the granting or
perfecting of a lien or security interest in any Collateral or release any guaranty or similar undertaking
provided by any Person except as shall be otherwise expressly permitted in this Agreement or any other Loan
Document, provided however that pursuant to Section 12.12 hereof Agent shall be entitled to release any
Collateral which any Borrower or any Subsidiary is permitted to sell or transfer under the terms of this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents without notice to or any further action or consent of the Lenders, (f)

be otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (g) take any action
which requires the approval or consent of all Lenders pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other
Loan Document, or (h) change the definitions of Borrowing Base, Eligible Properties, Co-Borrower,
Revolving Credit Percentage, Percentage, Interest Periods, Majority Revolving Credit Lenders, or this
Section 13.12; provided further, that no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing signed by the
Swing Line Lender do any of the following: (x) reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Swing Line Note
or (y) postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Swing Line Note; and
provided further, however, that no amendment, waiver, or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the
Agent in addition to all the Lenders, affect the rights or duties of the Agent under this Agreement or any
other Loan Document.

13.13 Confidentiality. Each Lender agrees that it will not disclose, without the prior consent of
Borrowers (other than to its officers, directors, employees, its Subsidiaries, another Lender, an Affiliate
of a Lender or to its auditors, counsel or other professional advisers, including without limitation
environmental consultants and appraisers, provided that such parties agree to be bound by the terms of this
Section 13.13, or are otherwise bound thereby), any information with respect to CARS or the Borrowers, which
is furnished pursuant to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents; provided that any Lender may
disclose any such information (a) as has become generally available to the public or has been lawfully
obtained by such Lender from any third party under no duty of confidentiality to Borrowers, (b) as may be
required or appropriate in any report, statement or testimony submitted to, or in respect to any inquiry, by,
any municipal, state or federal regulatory body having or claiming to have jurisdiction over such Lender,
including the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System of the United States, the Office of the
Comptroller of the Currency or the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or similar organizations (whether in
the United States or elsewhere) or their successors, (c) as may be required or appropriate in respect to any
summons or subpoena or in connection with any litigation, (d) in order to comply with any law, order,
regulation or ruling applicable to such Lender, and (e) to any permitted transferee or assignee or to any
approved participant of, or with respect to, the Notes, as aforesaid.

13.14 Withholding Taxes. If any Lender is not incorporated under the laws of the United States or a
state thereof, such Lender shall promptly (but in any event prior to the initial payment of interest
hereunder) deliver to the Agent (x) two executed copies of (i) Internal Revenue Service Form 1001 (or any
successor form) specifying the applicable tax treaty between the United States and the jurisdiction of such
Lenders domicile which provides for the exemption from withholding on interest payments to such Lender, (ii)
Internal Revenue Service Form 4224 (or any successor form) evidencing that the income to be received by such
Lender hereunder is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States or (y)
other evidence satisfactory to the Agent that such Lender is exempt from United States income tax withholding
with respect to such income; provided, however, that such Lender shall not be required to deliver to Agent
the aforesaid forms or other evidence with respect to Advances to CALP or any Subsidiary which subsequently
becomes a Co-Borrower hereunder, if such Lender has assigned its interest in the Revolving Credit (including
any outstanding Advances thereunder and participations in Letters of Credit issued hereunder) and any Notes
issued to it by CALP or any Borrower, to an Affiliate which is incorporated under the laws

of the United
States or a state thereof, and so notifies the Agent. Such Lender shall amend or supplement any such form or
evidence as required to insure that it is accurate, complete and non-misleading at all times. Promptly upon
notice from the Agent of any determination by the Internal Revenue Service that any payments previously made
to such Lender hereunder were subject to United States income tax withholding when made, such Lender shall
pay to the Agent the excess of the aggregate amount required to be withheld from such payments over the
aggregate amount actually withheld by the Agent. In addition, from time to time upon the reasonable request
and at the sole expense of the Borrowers, each Lender and the Agent shall (to the extent it is able to do so
based upon applicable facts and circumstances), complete and provide the Borrowers with such forms,
certificates or other documents as may be reasonably necessary to allow the Borrowers, as applicable, to make
any payment under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents without any withholding for or on the account of
any tax under Section 11.1(d) hereof (or with such withholding at a reduced rate), provided that the
execution and delivery of such forms, certificates or other documents does not adversely affect or otherwise
restrict the right and benefits (including without limitation economic benefits) available to such of the
Lender or the Agent, as the case may be, under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or under or
in connection with any transactions not related to the transactions contemplated hereby.

13.15 Taxes and Fees. Should any tax (other than as a result of a Lenders failure to comply with
Section 13.13 or a tax based upon the net income or capitalization of any Lender or the Agent by any
jurisdiction where a Lender or Agent is located), recording or filing fee become payable in respect of this
Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any amendment, modification or supplement hereof or thereof,
the Borrowers agree to pay the same, together with any interest or penalties thereon arising from the
Borrowers act or omission, and agrees to hold the Agent and the Lenders harmless with respect thereto.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 13.14 shall affect or reduce the rights of
any Lender or the Agent under Section 11.7 hereof.

13.16 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE LENDERS, THE AGENT AND THE BORROWERS AFTER CONSULTING OR HAVING HAD
THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT WITH COUNSEL, KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT ANY OF THEM
MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY RELATED
INSTRUMENT OR AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT,
DEALING, STATEMENTS (WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTION OF ANY OF THEM. NEITHER THE LENDERS, THE AGENT, NOR
BORROWERS SHALL SEEK TO CONSOLIDATE, BY COUNTERCLAIM OR OTHERWISE, ANY SUCH ACTION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL HAS
BEEN WAIVED WITH ANY OTHER ACTION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL CANNOT BE OR HAS NOT BEEN WAIVED. THESE PROVISIONS
SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO HAVE BEEN MODIFIED IN ANY RESPECT OR RELINQUISHED BY THE LENDERS AND THE AGENT OR
BORROWERS EXCEPT BY A WRITTEN INSTRUMENT EXECUTED BY ALL OF THEM.

13.17 Complete Agreement; Conflicts. This Agreement, the Notes (if issued), any Requests for
Revolving Credit Advance and Requests for Swing Line Advance hereunder, and the Loan Documents contain the
entire agreement of the parties hereto, superseding all prior agreements, discussions and understandings
relating to the subject matter hereof, and none of the parties shall be bound by anything not expressed in
writing. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, this
Agreement shall govern.

13.18 Severability. In case any one or more of the obligations of Borrowers under this Agreement,
the Notes or any of the other Loan Documents shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction,
the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining obligations of Borrowers shall not in any way be
affected or impaired thereby, and such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability in one jurisdiction shall
not affect the validity, legality or enforceability of the obligations of Borrowers under this Agreement, the
Notes or any of the other Loan Documents in any other jurisdiction.

13.19 Table of Contents and Headings. The table of contents and the headings of the various
subdivisions hereof are for convenience of reference only and shall in no way modify or affect any of the
terms or provisions hereof.

13.20 Construction of Certain Provisions. If any provision of this Agreement or any of the Loan
Documents refers to any action to be taken by any Person, or which such Person is prohibited from taking,
such provision shall be applicable whether such action is taken directly or indirectly by such Person,
whether or not expressly specified in such provision.

13.21 Independence of Covenants. Each covenant hereunder shall be given independent effect (subject
to any exceptions stated in such covenant) so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by
any such covenant (taking into account any such stated exception), the fact that it would be permitted by an
exception to, or would be otherwise within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the
occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default.

13.22 Reliance on and Survival of Various Provisions. All terms, covenants, agreements,
representations and warranties of Borrowers or any party to any of the Loan Documents made herein or in any
of the Loan Documents or in any certificate, report, financial statement or other document furnished by or on
behalf of CARS or any Borrower in connection with this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents shall be deemed
to have been relied upon by the Lenders, notwithstanding any investigation heretofore or hereafter made by
any Lender or on such Lenders behalf, and those covenants and agreements of Borrowers set forth in Section
11.6 hereof (together with any other indemnities of CARS or any Borrower contained elsewhere in this
Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents) and of Lenders set forth in Section 12.8 hereof shall
survive the repayment in full of the Indebtedness and the termination of the Revolving Credit Aggregate
Commitment.

13.23 Joint and Several Liability of Borrower and CALP Matters.

is the intent of the parties that each such Borrower be primarily liable for the obligations as a
joint and several obligor (except as specifically set forth in this Section 13.23). It is the
intention of the parties that with respect to liability of any Borrower hereunder arising solely by
reason of its being jointly and severally liable for Advances and other extensions of credit taken by

| | (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, it is the intention of the
Borrowers, Agent and the Lenders that the amount of the respective Borrowers obligations hereunder
shall be in, but not in excess of, the maximum amount thereof not subject to avoidance or recovery by
operation of applicable law governing bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment of debts,
relief of debtors, dissolution, insolvency, fraudulent transfers or conveyances or other similar laws
(collectively, Applicable Insolvency Laws). To that end, but only in the event and to the extent
that the Borrowers respective obligations hereunder or any payment made pursuant thereto would, but
for the operation of the foregoing proviso, be subject to avoidance or recovery under Applicable
Insolvency Laws, the amount of the Borrowers respective obligations hereunder shall be limited to the
largest amount which, after giving effect thereto, would not, under Applicable Insolvency Laws, render
the Guarantors respective obligations hereunder unenforceable or avoidable or subject to recovery
under Applicable Insolvency Laws. To the extent any payment actually made hereunder exceeds the
limitation contained in this Section 13.23(i), then the amount of such excess shall, from and after
the time of payment by the Borrowers (or any of them), be reimbursed by the Lenders upon demand by
such Borrowers. The foregoing proviso is intended solely to preserve the rights of the Agent and the
Lenders hereunder against the Borrowers to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Insolvency Laws
and neither any Borrower nor any Guarantor nor any other Person shall have any right or claim under
this Section 13.23(i) that would not otherwise be available under Applicable Insolvency Laws.
