          (c) Funding For the convenience of the Loan Parties, the Lender will disburse the
net proceeds of the Loan to Parent.

 

 

     3. Representations and Warranties of the Loan Parties. Each Loan Party hereby represents and
warrants to the Lender as follows:

          (a) Subsidiaries. Parent has no direct or indirect stock ownership, partnership
interest or other equity interest in any Person other than the Subsidiaries. Parent owns, directly
or indirectly, all of the capital stock or membership interests of each Subsidiary free and clear
of any and all Liens, and all the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock or membership
interests of each Subsidiary are validly issued and are fully paid, non-assessable and free of
preemptive and similar rights. Parent or one of its Subsidiaries has the unrestricted right to
vote, and (subject to limitations imposed by applicable law) to receive dividends and distributions
on, all capital securities of the Subsidiaries as owned by Parent or such Subsidiary. None of the
membership interests in any Subsidiary which is a limited liability company are certificated.

          (b) Organization and Qualification. Each Loan Party is duly incorporated or otherwise
organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its
incorporation or organization (as applicable), with the requisite power and authority to own and
use its properties and assets and to carry on its business as currently conducted and as presently
proposed to be conducted, except in each case as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have
or reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No Loan Party is in violation of
any of the provisions of its respective certificate or articles of incorporation, bylaws or other
organizational or charter documents. Each Loan Party is duly qualified to conduct its respective
businesses and is in good standing as a foreign corporation or other entity in each jurisdiction in
which the nature of the business conducted or property owned by it makes such qualification
necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing, as the case may be,
would not, individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material
Adverse Effect.

          (c) Authorization; Enforcement. Each Loan Party has the requisite corporate or
limited liability company power and authority to enter into and to consummate the transactions
contemplated by each of the Loan Documents and otherwise to carry out its obligations hereunder and
thereunder. The execution and delivery of each of the Loan Documents by each Loan Party and the
consummation by it of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly authorized by all
necessary corporate or limited liability company action on the part of such Loan Party and no
consent or further corporate or limited liability company action is required on its part in
connection therewith. Each Loan Document executed and delivered by a Loan Party has been duly
executed by it and constitutes the valid and binding obligation of such Loan Party enforceable
against it in accordance with its terms.

          (d) No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents by
each Loan Party and the consummation by such Loan Party of the transactions contemplated thereby do
not and will not (i) conflict with or violate any provision of such Loan Party’s certificate or
articles of incorporation, bylaws or other

2

 

organizational or charter documents, or (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an
event that with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others
any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation (with or without notice, lapse
of time or both) of, any agreement, credit facility, debt or other instrument (evidencing a Loan
Party debt or otherwise) or other understanding to which a Loan Party is a party or by which any
property or asset of a Loan Party is bound or affected, or (iii) result in a violation of any law,
rule, regulation, order, judgment, injunction, decree or other restriction of any court or
governmental authority to which a Loan Party is subject (including federal and state securities
laws and regulations), or by which any property or asset of a Loan Party is bound or affected;
except in the case of each of clauses (ii) and (iii), such as would not, individually or in the
aggregate, have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

          (e) Filings, Consents and Approvals. No Loan Party is required to obtain any consent,
waiver, authorization or order of, give any notice to, or make any filing or registration with, any
court or other federal, state, local or other governmental authority or other Person in connection
with the execution, delivery and performance by such Loan Party of the Loan Documents, other than
those that have been made or obtained prior to the date of this Agreement.

          (f) SEC Reports; Financial Statements. Parent has filed all reports, schedules,
forms, statements and other documents required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the
Exchange Act, including pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) thereof, for the twelve months preceding
the date hereof (or such shorter period as the Company was required by law to file such reports)
(the foregoing materials and all exhibits included therein and financial statements, notes and
schedules thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein being collectively referred to
herein as the “SEC Reports”) on a timely basis or has timely filed a valid extension of such time
of filing and has filed any such SEC Reports prior to the expiration of any such extension. Parent
has made available to the Lender or its respective representatives true, correct and complete
copies of each of the SEC Reports not available on the EDGAR system (if any). As of their
respective dates, the SEC Reports complied in all material respects with the requirements of the
Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated
thereunder, and none of the SEC Reports, when filed, contained any untrue statement of a material
fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to
make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading. The financial statements of Parent included in the SEC Reports comply in all material
respects with applicable accounting requirements and the rules and regulations of the Commission
with respect thereto as in effect at the time of filing (or amendment, as applicable). Such
financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, applied on a consistent basis,
during the periods involved, except as may be otherwise specified in such financial statements or
the notes thereto, and fairly present in all material respects the financial position of Parent and
its consolidated subsidiaries as of and for the dates thereof and the results of operations and
cash flows for the periods then ended, subject, in

3

 

the case of unaudited statements, to normal, immaterial, year-end audit adjustments or
adjustments which will not be material, either individually or in the aggregate.

          (g) Tax Status. Each of the Loan Parties (i) has timely made or filed all foreign,
federal and state income and all other tax returns, reports and declarations required by any
jurisdiction to which it is subject, (ii) has timely paid all taxes and other governmental
assessments and charges that are material in amount, shown or determined to be due on such returns,
reports and declarations, except those being contested in good faith and (iii) has set aside on its
books provision reasonably adequate for the payment of all taxes for periods subsequent to the
periods to which such returns, reports or declarations apply, except in each case as would not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There are no unpaid taxes in any material
amount claimed to be due by the taxing authority of any jurisdiction, and the officers of Parent
know of no basis for any such claim.

          (h) Material Changes. Since the date of the latest financial statements included in
the SEC Reports, except as set forth in the SEC Reports, (i) there has been no event, occurrence or
development that has had or that would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Effect, (ii) Parent has not incurred any liabilities (contingent or otherwise) other than (A) trade
payables, accrued expenses and other liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business
consistent with past practice and (B) liabilities not required to be reflected in Parents’s
financial statements pursuant to GAAP or required to be disclosed in filings made with the
Commission, (iii) Parent has not altered its method of accounting or the identity of its auditors,
(iv) Parent has not declared or made any dividend or distribution of cash or other property to its
stockholders or purchased, redeemed or made any agreements to purchase or redeem any shares of its
capital stock, (v) Parent has not sold any assets outside of the ordinary course of business, (vi)
Parent has not made any material capital expenditures and (vi) Parent has not issued any equity
securities to any officer, director or Affiliate, except pursuant to existing Parent stock option
plans. Parent does not have pending before the Commission any request for confidential treatment of
information. None of the Loan Parties has taken any steps to seek protection pursuant to any
bankruptcy law nor does Parent have any knowledge or reason to believe that its creditors intend to
initiate involuntary bankruptcy proceedings or any actual knowledge of any fact which would
reasonably lead a creditor to do so.

          (i) Litigation. There is no Action which (i) adversely affects or challenges the
legality, validity or enforceability of any of the Loan Documents against any Loan Party or (ii)
except as specifically disclosed in the SEC Reports, would, if there were an unfavorable decision,
individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Effect. No Loan Party, nor any director or officer thereof (in his or her capacity as such), is or
has been the subject of any Action involving a claim of violation of or liability under federal or
state securities laws or a claim of breach of fiduciary duty, except as specifically disclosed in
the SEC Reports. There has not been, and to the knowledge of Parent, there is not pending any
investigation by the

4

 

Commission involving Parent or any current or former director or officer of Parent (in his or
her capacity as such).

          (j) Labor Relations. Except as disclosed in Schedule 3(j) hereof, no material labor
dispute exists or, to the knowledge of any Loan Party, is imminent with respect to any of the
employees of any Loan Party. No Loan Party is a party to any collective bargaining agreement or
employs any member of a union. The Loan Parties believe that their relations with their employees
are good. No executive officer (as defined in Rule 501(f) of the Securities Act) of a Loan Party
has notified a Loan Party that such officer intends to leave the Loan Party or otherwise terminate
such officer’s employment with the Loan Party. No executive officer of a Loan Party is, or is now
expected to be, in violation of any material term of any employment contract, confidentiality,
disclosure or proprietary information agreement, non-competition agreement, or any other contract
or agreement or any restrictive covenant, and the continued employment of each such executive
officer does not subject a Loan Party to any liability with respect to any of the foregoing
matters.

          (k) Compliance. No Loan Party (i) is in default under or in violation of (and no
event has occurred that has not been waived that, with notice or lapse of time or both, would
result in a default under), nor has any Loan Party received notice of a claim that it is in default
under or that it is in violation of, any indenture, loan or credit agreement or any other agreement
or instrument to which it is a party or by which it or any of its properties is bound (except to
the extent such default or violation has been waived), (ii) is in violation of any judgment, decree
or order of any court, arbitrator or governmental body, or (iii) is or has been in violation of any
statute, ordinance, rule or regulation of any governmental authority, including without limitation
all foreign, federal, state and local laws relating to taxes, pollution, environmental protection,
occupational health and safety, product quality and safety or employment and labor matters, except
in each case as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably be expected to
result in a Material Adverse Effect. Parent is in compliance with all effective requirements of
the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder, that are
applicable to it, except where such noncompliance would not have or reasonably be expected to
result in a Material Adverse Effect.

          (l) Regulatory Permits. The Loan Parties possess all certificates, authorizations,
licenses and permits issued by the appropriate federal, state, local or foreign regulatory
authorities necessary to conduct their respective businesses as described in the SEC Reports,
except where the failure to possess any such certificates, authorizations, licenses or permits
would not, individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material
Adverse Effect, and no Loan Party has received any notice of proceedings relating to the revocation
or modification of any such certificate, authorization, license or permit.

5

 

          (m) Title to Assets. The Loan Parties have good and marketable title in fee simple to
all real property owned by them that is material to their respective businesses and good and
marketable title in all personal property owned or used by them that is material to their
respective businesses, in each case free and clear of all Liens, except for Permitted Liens. Any
real property and facilities held under lease by the Loan Parties are held by them under valid,
subsisting and, to the Loan Parties’ knowledge, enforceable leases of which the Loan Parties are in
compliance, except as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably be expected
to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

          (n) Patents and Trademarks.

               (i) Schedule 3.1(p) to this Agreement accurately sets forth all material Intellectual
Property that is owned and used in the business of the Loan Parties, viewed as a whole, as
presently conducted (“Company’s IP”). No Intellectual Property other than the Company’s IP is
material to the business of any Loan Party as presently conducted or as presently proposed to be
conducted. A Loan Party is the sole and exclusive owner of all right, title and interest in and to
Company’s IP (with no breaks in the chain of title thereof) free and clear of, to its knowledge,
any claim, security interest, lien, pledge, option, charge or encumbrance of any kind whatsoever.
Company’s IP has not been used or enforced or failed to be used or enforced in a manner that would
result in the abandonment, cancellation or unenforceability of any Loan Party’s material rights in
and to Company’s IP.

               (ii) No Loan Party has transferred any rights or interest in, or granted any exclusive license
with respect to, any of the Company’s IP to any third party.1

               (iii) To the Loan Parties’ knowledge, all of Company’s IP is currently in compliance in all
material respects with all legal requirements (including timely filings, proofs and payments of
fees) and is, to the Loan Parties’ knowledge, valid and enforceable. No Company’s IP which is
necessary for the conduct of any Loan Party’s businesses as currently conducted or as currently
proposed to be conducted has been or is now involved in any pending or threatened cancellation,
dispute or litigation of which any Loan Party is aware. No patent of a Loan Party has been or is
now involved in any interference, reissue, re-examination or opposition proceeding.

               (iv) All of the licenses and sublicenses and consent, royalty or other agreements concerning
Company’s IP which are necessary for the conduct of each Loan Party’s businesses as currently
conducted or as currently proposed to be conducted to which any Loan Party is a party or by which
any of its assets are bound (other than generally commercially available, non-custom,
off-the-shelf software application programs having a retail acquisition price of less than $25,000
per license) (collectively, “License Agreements”) are valid and binding obligations of the Loan
Parties that are

6

 

parties thereto and, to the Loan Parties’ knowledge, the other parties thereto, enforceable in
accordance with their terms, and there exists no event or condition which, to the Loan Parties’
knowledge, will result in a material violation or breach of or constitute (with or without due
notice or lapse of time or both) a default by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries under any such
License Agreement.

               (v) Each Loan Party owns or has the valid right to use all of the Intellectual Property that
is necessary for the operation of its business as currently conducted or as currently proposed to
be conducted. The Loan Parties have a valid and enforceable right to use all third party
Intellectual Property and confidential information used or held for use as the Company’s IP.

               (vi) To the knowledge of the Loan Parties, the conduct of the Loan Parties’ businesses as
currently conducted does not infringe or otherwise impair or conflict with (collectively,
“Infringe”) any Intellectual Property rights of any third party or any confidentiality obligation
owed to a third party, and, to the Loan Parties’ knowledge, the Company’s IP which are necessary
for the conduct of any Loan Party’s businesses as currently conducted or as currently proposed to
be conducted are not being Infringed by any third party. There is no litigation or order pending
or outstanding or, to the Loan Parties’ knowledge, threatened or imminent, that seeks to limit or
challenge or that concerns the ownership, use, validity or enforceability of any of the Company’s
IP or, to the Loan Parties’ knowledge, the Loan Parties’ use of any Intellectual Property or
Confidential Information owned by a third party, and, to the Loan Parties’ knowledge, there is no
valid basis for the same.

               (vii) The consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents
will not result in the alteration, loss, impairment of or restriction on any Loan Party’s ownership
or right to use any of the Company’s IP which is necessary for the conduct of any Loan Party’s
businesses as currently conducted or as currently proposed to be conducted.

          (o) Insurance. The Loan Parties are insured by insurers of recognized financial
responsibility against such losses and risks and in such amounts as are prudent and customary in
the businesses in which the Loan Parties are engaged. The Loan Parties have no reason to believe
that they will not be able to renew their existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage
expires or to obtain similar coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary to continue its
business on terms consistent in all material respects with market for similar size companies as the
Loan Parties for the lines of business of the Loan Parties at a cost that would not have a Material
Adverse Effect. No Loan Party has been refused any insurance coverage sought or applied for.

          (p) Transactions With Affiliates and Employees. None of the officers or directors of
Parent and, to the knowledge of Loan Parties, none of the employees of the Loan Parties is
presently a party to any transaction with a Loan Party (other than for ordinary course services as
employees, officers and directors), including any contract, agreement or other arrangement
providing for the furnishing of services to or by,

7

 

providing for rental of real or personal property to or from, or otherwise requiring payments
to or from any officer, director or such employee or, to the knowledge of the Loan Parties, any
entity in which any officer, director, or any such employee has a substantial interest or is an
officer, director, trustee or partner, which in each case is required to be disclosed in the SEC
Reports and has not been so disclosed.

          (q) Internal Accounting Controls. Each Loan Party maintains a system of internal
accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that (i) transactions are executed
in accordance with management’s general or specific authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded
as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles and to maintain asset and liability accountability, (iii) access to assets or
incurrence of liabilities is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or specific
authorization, and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets and liabilities is compared with the
existing assets and liabilities at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with
respect to any differences. Parent has established disclosure controls and procedures (as defined
in Exchange Act rules 13a-14 and 15d-14) for Parent and designed such disclosure controls and
procedures so that they are effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by
Parent in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the
Commission, including, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that material
information relating to the Loan Parties is made known to the certifying officers by others within
those entities, particularly during the period in which Parent’s Form 10-K or 10-Q, as the case may
be, is being prepared. Parent’s certifying officers have evaluated the effectiveness of Parent’s
controls and procedures in accordance with Item 307 of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act for
the Company’s most recently ended fiscal quarter or fiscal year-end (such date, the “Evaluation
Date”). Parent presented in its most recently filed Form 10-K or Form 10-Q the conclusions of the
certifying officers about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based on
their evaluations as of the Evaluation Date. Since the Evaluation Date, there have been no
significant changes in Parent’s internal controls (as such term is defined in Item 308(c) of
Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act) or, to Parent’s knowledge, in other factors that would
significantly affect Parent’s internal controls. No Loan Party has received any written notice or
correspondence from any accountant relating to any potential material weakness in any part of the
system of internal accounting controls of Parent

          (r) Solvency. Based on the financial condition of the Loan Parties as of the date
hereof and as of the Closing Date (assuming that the Closing shall have occurred), (i) the present
fair saleable value of each Loan Party’s assets exceeds the amount that will be required to be paid
on or in respect of its existing debts and other liabilities (including known contingent
liabilities) as they mature; (ii) the assets of each Loan Party do not constitute unreasonably
small capital to carry on its business, including its capital needs taking into account the
particular capital requirements of the business conducted by such Loan Party, and capital
availability thereof; and (iii) the current cash

8

 

flow of each Loan Party, together with the proceeds it would receive, were it to liquidate all
of its assets, after taking into account all anticipated uses of the cash, would be sufficient to
pay all amounts on or in respect of its debt when such amounts are required to be paid. The
foregoing representation and warranty is also true and correct as to the Loan Parties on a
consolidated basis. No Loan Party intends to incur debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as
they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts of cash to be payable on or in respect of
its or their debt).2

          (s) Investment Company. Parent is not, and is not an Affiliate of, and immediately
following the Closing will not have become, an “investment company,” an Affiliate of an “investment
company,” a company controlled by an “investment company” or an “affiliated person” of, or
“promoter” or “principal underwriter” for, an “investment company” within the meaning of the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

          (t) Disclosure. The Loan Parties confirm that neither they nor, to their knowledge,
any Person acting on their behalf has provided Lender or its agents or counsel with any information
that the Loan Parties believe constitutes material, non-public information, except insofar as the
existence and terms of the proposed transactions hereunder and the information contained herein or
in the other Loan Documents may constitute such information. The Loan Parties understand and
confirm that the Lender will rely on the foregoing representations and warranties in effecting
transactions in securities of Parent. The Loan Parties acknowledge and agree that the Lender makes
no representations or warranties with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

          (u) U.S. Real Property Holding Corporation. None of the Loan Parties is, or has ever
been, a U.S. real property holding corporation within the meaning of Section 897 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and Parent shall so certify upon the request of Lender.

          (v) Foreign Corrupt Practices. No Loan Party nor any director, officer, agent,
employee or other Person acting on behalf of a Loan Party has, in the course of its actions for, or
on behalf of, a Loan Party (i) used any corporate funds for any unlawful contribution, gift,
entertainment or other unlawful expenses relating to political activity; (ii) made any direct or
indirect unlawful payment to any foreign or domestic government official or employee from corporate
funds; (iii) violated or is in violation of any provision of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act
of 1977, as amended; or (iv) made any unlawful bribe, rebate, payoff, influence payment, kickback
or other unlawful payment to any foreign or domestic government official or employee, except in
each case as would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

and operate actively its business according to good business practices and maintain all of its

trademarks and take all actions necessary to enforce and protect the validity of any Company’s IP;

statute, regulation or ordinance of any Governmental Body, or of any agency thereof, applicable to

(subject, where applicable, to specified grace periods and, in the case of the trade payables, to
normal payment practices) all its obligations and liabilities of whatever nature, except when the
failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or when the
amount or validity thereof is currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings
and each Loan Party shall have provided for adequate reserves.

          (a) Rights and Remedies. Upon the occurrence of (i) an Event of Default pursuant to

Default and at any time thereafter (such default not having previously been cured), at the option

have the right to exercise any and all rights and remedies provided for herein, under the other
Loan Documents, under the Uniform Commercial Code and at law or equity generally.

          (b) Lender’s Discretion. The Lender shall have the right in its sole discretion to
determine which rights, Liens, security interests or remedies the Lender may at any time pursue,

determination will not in any way modify or affect any of the Lender’s rights hereunder or under
the other Loan Documents.

law, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder, the Lender

14

 

shall have a right, upon notice to the Loan Parties, to apply any Loan Party’s property held
by the Lender to reduce the amounts due under the Loan.

          (d) Rights and Remedies not Exclusive. The enumeration of the foregoing rights and
remedies is not intended to be exhaustive and the exercise of any rights or remedy shall not
preclude the exercise of any other right or remedies provided for herein or otherwise provided by
law, all of which shall be cumulative and not alternative.

          (e) Allocation of Payments After Event of Default. Notwithstanding any other
provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an
Event of Default, all amounts collected or received by the Lender on account of the Loan or any
other amounts outstanding under any of the other Loan Documents may, at the Lender’s discretion, be
paid over or delivered as follows:

          FIRST, to the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable

under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents;

option, by service upon Parent which each Loan Party irrevocably appoints as such Loan Party’s
Agent for the purpose of accepting service within the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Nothing herein
shall affect the right to serve process in any manner permitted by law or shall limit the right of
the Lender to bring proceedings against any Loan Party in the courts of any other jurisdiction.
Each Loan Party waives any objection to jurisdiction and venue of any action instituted hereunder
and shall not assert any defense based on lack of jurisdiction or venue or based upon forum non

18

 

AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS COUNSEL.

herewith contain the entire understanding between each Loan Party and Lender and supersede all
prior agreements and understandings, if any, relating to the subject matter hereof. Any promises,
representations, warranties or guarantees not herein contained and hereinafter made shall have no
force and effect unless in writing, signed by each Loan Party’s and Lender’s respective officers.
Neither this Agreement nor any portion or provisions hereof may be changed, modified, amended,
waived, supplemented, discharged, cancelled or terminated orally or by any course of dealing, or in
any manner other than by an agreement in writing, signed by the party to be charged. Each Loan

Agreement and other Loan Documents and is not relying upon oral representations or statements

               (i) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Loan Parties, the
Lender, all future holders of the Loan and their respective successors and assigns, except that no
Loan Party may assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the
prior written consent of the Lender.

               (ii) Each Loan Party acknowledges that Lender may at any time and from time to time sell
participating interests in the Loan to other financial institutions (each such transferee or
purchaser of a participating interest, a “Participant”).

               (iii) The Lender may sell, assign or transfer all or any part of its rights under or relating
to the Loan, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents without the consent of the Loan Parties.

          (d) Application of Payments. The Lender shall have the continuing and exclusive right
to apply or reverse and re-apply any payment and any and all proceeds of any collateral to any
portion of the obligations under the Loan Documents. To the extent that any Loan Party makes a
payment or the Lender or the Lender receives any payment or proceeds of any collateral for any Loan
Party’s benefit, which are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set
aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, debtor in possession, receiver, custodian or any other
party under any bankruptcy law, common law or equitable cause, then, to such extent, the
obligations or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continue as if such
payment or proceeds had not been received by the Lender.

          (f) Severability. If any part of this Agreement is contrary to, prohibited by, or
deemed invalid under Applicable Laws or regulations, such provision shall be inapplicable and
deemed omitted to the extent so contrary, prohibited or invalid, but the remainder hereof shall not
be invalidated thereby and shall be given effect so far as possible.

          (g) Expenses. All costs and expenses including reasonable attorneys’ fees and
disbursements incurred by the Lender (a) in all efforts made to enforce payment of the Loan or any
other obligation under the Loan Documents or effect collection of any collateral under the Loan
Documents, or (b) in defending or prosecuting any actions or proceedings arising out of or relating
to the Lender’s transactions with any Loan Party, shall be paid by the Loan Parties promptly after
request by the Lender.

          (h) Injunctive Relief. Each Loan Party recognizes that, in the event
any Loan Party fails to perform, observe or discharge any of its obligations or liabilities under
this Agreement, or threatens to fail to perform, observe or discharge such obligations or
liabilities, any remedy at law may prove to be inadequate relief to the Lender; therefore, the
Lender, if the Lender so requests, shall be entitled to temporary and permanent injunctive relief
in any such case without the necessity of proving that actual damages are not an adequate remedy.

21

 

          (i) Consequential Damages. Neither the Lender, nor any agent or attorney for it,
shall be liable to any Loan Party (or any Affiliate of any such Person) for indirect, punitive,
exemplary or consequential damages arising from any breach of contract, tort or other wrong
relating to the establishment, administration or collection of the Loan or as a result of any
transaction contemplated under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

          (j) Captions. The captions at various places in this Agreement are intended for
convenience only and do not constitute and shall not be interpreted as part of this Agreement.

          (k) Counterparts; Facsimile Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in any number
of and by different parties hereto on separate counterparts, all of which, when so executed, shall
be deemed an original, but all such counterparts shall constitute one and the same agreement. Any
signature delivered by a party by facsimile transmission, email, or pdf shall be deemed to be an
original signature hereto.

          (l) Construction. The parties acknowledge that each party and its counsel have
reviewed this Agreement and that the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities
are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of this
Agreement or any amendments, schedules or exhibits thereto.

          (m) Joint and Several Liability.

               (i) The Loan Parties agree that their obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents shall be joint and several, and each Loan Party shall make payment of the Loan by
acceleration or otherwise, and such obligation and liability on the part of each Loan Party shall
in no way be affected by any extensions, renewals and forbearance granted by Lender to any Loan
Party, failure of the Lender to pursue or preserve its rights against any Loan Party, the release
by the Lender of any collateral now or thereafter acquired from any Loan Party, and such agreement
by each Loan Party to pay upon any notice issued pursuant thereto is unconditional and unaffected
by prior recourse by the Lender to the other Loan Parties or any collateral for such Loan Party’s
obligations or the lack thereof. Each Loan Party waives all suretyship defenses.

          (b) Each Subsidiary agrees that if such joint and several liability hereunder or under the
other Loan Documents, or any Liens securing such joint and several liability, would, but for the
application of this sentence, be unenforceable under applicable law, such joint and several
liability and each such Lien shall be valid and enforceable to the maximum extent that would not
cause such joint and several liability or such Lien to be unenforceable under applicable law, and
such joint and several liability and such Lien shall be deemed to have been automatically amended
at all relevant times.

22

 

          (c) Each Subsidiary hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees it will contribute, to the
maximum extent permitted by law, such amounts to each other Subsidiary and the Parent so as to
maximize the aggregate amount paid to the Lender under or in connection with the Loan Documents.

SCHEDULE 3(j)

Supplement disclosure regarding Labor Relations

On April 28, 2009 the attorney for Alvin H. Clemens, the Company’s former CEO and former Chairman
of the Board of Directors, sent a letter addressed to the Company’s general counsel that alleged,
among other things, that Mr. Clemens’s letter of resignation, dated March 31, 2008, was “procured
by fraudulent and/or negligent misrepresentations,” that HBDC did not “honor its commitment to
agree to a new employment agreement with Mr. Clemens within 15 days” of March 31, 2008, and that
the terms of Mr. Clemens’s March 31, 2008 resignation letter were “materially breached by HBDC in
numerous respects.” The Company is not aware of any litigation or claim filed against the Company
by Mr. Clemens in connection with this matter. The Company believes Mr. Clemens’s allegations are
without merit. The April 28, 2009 letter was distributed to all members of the Company’s Board of
Directors.
