respect thereto would end after the Maturity Date.

Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (a) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not
later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of the proposed
Borrowing or (b) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time,

such telephonic Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand
delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Borrowing Request in the form of
Exhibit D-1 attached hereto, or such other form approved by the Administrative Agent, and signed by
the Borrower. Each such telephonic and written Borrowing Request shall specify the following
information in compliance with Section 2.02:

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

(iii) whether such Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing;

(iv) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, the initial Interest Period to be applicable
thereto, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”; and

(v) the location and number of the Borrower’s account to which funds are to be disbursed,
which shall comply with the requirements of Section 2.05.

If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified, then the requested Borrowing shall be a
Eurodollar Borrowing with an Interest Period of one month’s duration. If no Interest Period is
specified with respect to any requested Eurodollar Borrowing, then the Borrower shall be deemed to
have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing
Request in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the
details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested
Borrowing.

SECTION 2.04. LETTERS OF CREDIT.

(a) GENERAL. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the
 Borrower may request the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrower on its
behalf or on behalf of any of the Consolidated Businesses, in a form reasonably acceptable to the
Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time during the
Availability Period. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this
Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other
agreement submitted by the Borrower to, or entered into by the Borrower with, the Issuing Bank
relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. Each
existing Letter of Credit shall be deemed for all purposes hereof to be a Letter of Credit issued
pursuant to this Agreement as of the Effective Date.

(b) NOTICE OF ISSUANCE, AMENDMENT, RENEWAL, EXTENSION, CERTAIN CONDITIONS. To request the
issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of
Credit), the Borrower shall hand deliver or telecopy (or transmit by electronic communication, if
arrangements for doing so have been approved by the Issuing Bank) to the Issuing Bank and the
Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal
or extension) a notice in the form of Exhibit D-2 attached hereto, or such other form approved by
the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent, and signed by the Borrower requesting the issuance of a
Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, the date
of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire
(which shall comply with paragraph (c) of this Section), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the
name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to
prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. If requested by the Issuing Bank, the
Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on the Issuing Bank’s standard form in
connection with any request for a Letter of Credit. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended,
renewed or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of
Credit the Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such
issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (i) the LC Exposure shall not exceed
$20,000,000 and (ii) the sum of the total Revolving Credit Exposures shall not exceed the
Maximum Availability.

 

- 21 -

 

(c) EXPIRATION DATE. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business
on the earlier of (i) the date one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit
(or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal or extension) and
(ii) the date that is thirty days prior to the Maturity Date.

(d) PARTICIPATIONS. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of
Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the Issuing
Bank or the Lenders, the Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Lender, and each Lender hereby acquires
from the Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Applicable
Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In
consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender hereby absolutely and
unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank,
such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by the Issuing Bank and not
reimbursed by the Borrower on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section, or of any
reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. Each Lender
acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in
respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any
circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or
the occurrence and continuance of a Default or Event of Default or reduction or termination of the
Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or
reduction whatsoever.

(e) REIMBURSEMENT. If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter
of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent
an amount equal to such LC Disbursement not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date
that such LC Disbursement is made, if the Borrower shall have received notice of such LC
Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on such date, or, if such notice has not been
received. by the Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than 12:00 noon, New York
City time, on (i) the Business Day that the Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is
received prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the day of receipt, or (ii) the Business Day
immediately following the day that the Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is not
received prior to such time on the day of receipt; provided that, if such LC Disbursement is not
less than $1,000,000, the Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein,
request in accordance with Section 2.03 that such payment be financed with a Loan in an equivalent
amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be
discharged and replaced by the resulting Loan. If the Borrower fails to make such payment when due,
the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment
then due from the Borrower in respect thereof and such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof.
Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent its
Applicable Percentage of the payment then due from the Borrower, in the same manner as provided in
Section 2.05 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.05 shall apply, mutatis
mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly
pay to the Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. Except as provided in
Section 2.16(b), promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the
Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the
Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to
reimburse the Issuing Bank, then to such Lenders and the Issuing Bank as their interests may
appear. Any payment made by a Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank for
any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Loans as contemplated above) shall not
constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC
Disbursement.

 

- 22 -

 

(f) OBLIGATIONS ABSOLUTE. The Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided
in paragraph (e) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be
performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances
whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit
or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented
under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any
statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the Issuing Bank
under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply
with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever,
whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section,
constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right
of setoff against, the Borrower’s obligations hereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent, the
Lenders nor the Issuing Bank, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or
responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit
or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances
referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in
transmission or delivery of any draft notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter
of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in
interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the
Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Issuing Bank from
liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages,
claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable
law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by the Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when
determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the
terms thereof. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the
parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in
substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank may, in its sole
discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further
investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and
make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of
such Letter of Credit.

(g) DISBURSEMENT PROCEDURES. The Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof,
examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The
Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower by
telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such demand for payment and whether the Issuing Bank has made
or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving
such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank and the
Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement.

(h) INTERIM INTEREST. If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the
Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the
unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC
Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement,
at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Loans; provided that, if the Borrower fails to
reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section, then Section
2.11(a) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the
Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Lender pursuant
to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse the Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such
Lender to the extent of such payment.

(i) REPLACEMENT OF THE ISSUING BANK. The Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written
agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor
Issuing Bank; provided that each Issuing Bank (including any successor Issuing Bank) shall be a
Lender hereunder. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of the
Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all
unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.10(b). From
and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all
the rights and obligations of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of
Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be
deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all
previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Bank
hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the
rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit
issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of
Credit, and all Letters of Credit previously issued by the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain
Letters of Credit under this Agreement notwithstanding the replacement of such Issuing Bank.

(j) CASH COLLATERALIZATION. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the
Business Day that is two Business Days after the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative
Agent or the Required Lenders demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph,
the Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the
Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders, an amount in cash equal to the LC Exposure
as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to
deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become
immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence
of any Event of Default with respect to the Borrower described in clause (h) or (i) of Article VII.
Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and
performance of the Obligations. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control,
including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on
the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion
of the Administrative Agent and at the Borrower’s risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear
interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys
in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for LC
Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held
for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for the LC Exposure at such
time or, if the maturity of the Obligations has been accelerated, be applied to satisfy other
Obligations. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a
result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as
aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower within three Business Days after all Events of Default
have been cured or waived to the satisfaction of the Required Lenders or each of the Lenders if
required herein. Upon demand by the Administrative Agent at any time while a Lender is a Defaulting
Lender, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent within one Business Day of such
demand, cash collateral or other credit support satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in its
sole discretion in an amount equal to such Defaulting Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the LC
Exposure then outstanding.

(k) INFORMATION TO LENDERS. The Administrative Agent shall periodically deliver to the Lenders
information setting forth the stated amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit. Other than as set
forth in this subsection, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty to notify the Lenders
regarding the issuance or other matters regarding Letters of Credit issued hereunder. The failure
of the Administrative Agent to perform its requirements under this subsection shall not relieve any
Lender from its obligations under Section 2.04(d) and (e) hereof.

 

- 24 -

 

SECTION 2.05. FUNDING OF BORROWINGS.

(a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof
by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 12:00 noon, New York City time on the date such
Loan is to be made in accordance hereunder, to the account of the Administrative Agent most
recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent will
make such Loans available to the Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like
funds, to an account of the Borrower designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing
Request; provided that ABR Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as
provided in Section 2.04(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Issuing Bank.

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the
proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent
such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has
made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in
reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such
event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the
Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the
Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each
day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the
date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the
Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with
banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest
rate applicable to ABR Loans. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then
such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing.

SECTION 2.06. INTEREST ELECTIONS.

(a) Each Loan initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request
and, in the case of a Eurodollar Loan, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such
Borrowing Request or as otherwise set forth herein. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert
such Loan to a different Type or to continue such Loan and, in the case of a Eurodollar Loan, may
elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. The Borrower may elect different
options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such
portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing,
and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing.

(b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative
Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under
Section 2.03 if the Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election
to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request
shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the
Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the
Administrative Agent and signed by the Borrower.

(c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following
information in compliance with Section 2.02:

(i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options
are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated
to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses
(iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);

(ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which
shall be a Business Day;

(iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing; and

 

- 25 -

 

(iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period to be
applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by
the definition of the term “Interest Period.”

If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing but does not specify an
Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one
month’s duration.

(d) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the
Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion
of each resulting Borrowing.

(e) If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with
respect to a Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then,
unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Loan
shall be converted to a Eurodollar Loan with an Interest Period of one month’s duration.
Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the
Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Loan may be
converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Loan and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar Loan shall
be converted to an ABR Loan at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

SECTION 2.07. TERMINATION AND REDUCTION OF COMMITMENTS.

(a) Unless previously terminated, the Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date.

(b) The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Commitments;
provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral
multiple of $100,000 and not less than $1,000,000 and (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate or
reduce the Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in
accordance with Section 2.09, the Revolving Credit Exposures would exceed the Maximum Availability.

(c) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce
the Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section at least three Business Days prior to the
effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date
thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the
Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section
shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Commitments delivered by the
Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit
facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the
Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not
satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments shall be permanent. Other than in
connection with the termination of the Commitment of a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section
2.18(b), each reduction of the Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance
with their respective Commitments.

SECTION 2.08. REPAYMENT OF LOANS, EVIDENCE OF DEBT.

(a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the
account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Loan together with all accrued
interest and all other Obligations (other than contingent, indemnification obligation owing to the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders hereunder) on the Maturity Date.

(b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts
evidencing the Indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such
Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time
to time hereunder.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount
of each Loan made hereunder, the Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the
amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower
to each Lender hereunder
and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account
of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereto.

 

- 26 -

 

(d) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) and (c) of this
Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded
therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such
accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to
repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

SECTION 2.09. PREPAYMENT OF LOANS.

(a) The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any
Borrowing in whole or in part, subject to prior notice in accordance with paragraph (b) of this
Section.

(b) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of
any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurodollar Loan, not later than 11:00
a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of prepayment or (ii) in the case of
prepayment of an ABR Loan, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, one Business Day before
the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date
and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that, if a
notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the
Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.07, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such
notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.07. Promptly following receipt of any
such notice relating to a Loan, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents
thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Loan shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of
$100,000 and not less than $1,000,000. Each prepayment of a Loan shall be applied ratably to the
Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to
the extent required by Section 2.11 and any fees due and payable under Section 2.14.

(c) If at any time a Consolidated Business receives proceeds from the sale, transfer,
assignment, conveyance or refinancing of any Real Property or any interest in any Real Property,
the Borrower shall prepay a portion of the Loan in an amount equal to the Net Cash Proceeds unless
the Borrower shall have obtained prior written consent from the Required Lenders to retain the Net
Cash Proceeds. In addition, at the time of such prepayment, the Borrower shall deliver to the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders a certificate, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory
to the Administrative Agent, demonstrating compliance (after giving effect to the sale of such Real
Property) with the covenants set forth in Section 5.05 and Article VI. To the extent the Borrower
is unable to show compliance with such covenants, such mandatory prepayment shall permanently
reduce the aggregate amount of the Commitments hereunder by an amount equal to such prepayment. In
the event of a required prepayment in accordance with this clause (c), the Borrower shall
simultaneously with the receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds make such prepayment together with the
interest accrued to the date of the prepayment on the principal amount prepaid. In connection with
the prepayment of any Loan prior to the maturity thereof, the Borrower shall also pay any
applicable expenses pursuant to Section 2.14 hereof. Each such prepayment shall be applied to
prepay ratably the Loans of the Lenders. As used in this clause (c) only, the phrase “sale,
transfer, assignment, conveyance or refinancing” shall not include sales or conveyances among the
Consolidated Businesses.

(d) If at any time the Revolving Credit Exposure exceeds the Maximum Availability, the
Borrower shall be required to prepay a portion of the Loan in an amount equal to such excess. In
the event of a required prepayment in accordance with this clause (d), the Borrower shall
immediately make such prepayment together with the interest accrued to the date of the prepayment
on the principal amount prepaid and shall, to the extent necessary, return or cause to be returned
to the Issuing Bank such Letters of Credit so that immediately following such prepayment and return
of such Letters of Credit the Revolving Credit Exposure shall not exceed the Maximum Availability;
provided that in lieu of returning any such Letters of Credit, the Borrower may deposit with the
Administrative Agent cash collateral in accordance with Section 2.04(j). In connection with the
prepayment of any Loan prior to the maturity thereof, the Borrower shall also pay any applicable
expenses pursuant to Section 2.14 hereof. Each such prepayment shall be applied to prepay ratably
the Loans of the Lenders.

 

- 27 -

 

(e) If at any time (i) the Company or the Borrower merges or consolidates with another Person
and the Company or the Borrower, as the case may be, is not the surviving entity, or (ii) one or
more of the Company, the Borrower, or any of the Borrower’s Subsidiaries ceases to provide property
management and
leasing services to at least 80% of the total number of Projects in which the Consolidated
Businesses have an ownership interest (the date any such event shall occur being the “PREPAYMENT
DATE”), the Borrower shall prepay the Loans in their entirety as if the Prepayment Date were the
Maturity Date, and the Commitment shall be terminated as of the Prepayment Date, without further
notice to the Borrower. In the event of a required prepayment in accordance with this clause (e),
the Borrower shall on the Prepayment Date make such prepayment together with the interest accrued
to the date of the prepayment on the principal amount prepaid and shall return or cause to be
returned all Letters of Credit to the Issuing Bank. In connection with the prepayment of any Loan
prior to the maturity thereof, the Borrower shall also pay any applicable expenses pursuant to
Section 2.14 hereof. Each such prepayment shall be applied to prepay ratably the Loans of the
Lenders. Amounts prepaid pursuant to this clause (e) may not be reborrowed.

SECTION 2.10. FEES.

(a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender, an
unused facility fee (“UNUSED FACILITY FEE”), which as of the Fee Payment Date shall accrue at a
rate per annum equal to (i) the applicable Unused Facility Fee Rate times (ii) the average daily
difference between (x) the Commitment of such Lender minus (y) Revolving Credit Exposure of such
Lender, during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the date on which
such Commitment terminates; provided however, that if such Lender continues to have any Revolving
Credit Exposure after its Commitment terminates, then such Unused Facility Fee shall continue to
accrue on the daily amount of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure from and including the date
on which its Commitment terminates to but excluding the date on which such Lender ceases to have
any Revolving Credit Exposure.

(b) The Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each
Lender, a letter of credit fee (“LETTER OF CREDIT FEE”) with respect to its participation in each
Letter of Credit, which shall accrue at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for
Eurodollar Loans then in effect on the average daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure
attributable to such Letter of Credit during the period from and including the date of issuance of
such Letter of Credit to but excluding the date on which such Letter of Credit expires or is drawn
in full (including without limitation any LC Exposure that remains outstanding after the Maturity
Date) and (ii) to the Issuing Bank for its own account a fronting fee (“FRONTING FEE”), which shall
accrue at the rate of 0.125% per annum on the average daily amount of the LC Exposure (excluding
any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the Availability Period
(or until the date that all Letters of Credit are irrevocably cancelled, whichever is later), as
well as the Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to issuance, amendment, renewal or extension
of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Pursuant to Section 2.11(d),
notwithstanding the foregoing, while an Event of Default exists the rate per annum used to
calculate the Letter of Credit Fee pursuant to clause (i) above shall automatically be increased by
an additional 2% per annum.

(c) Accrued fees under paragraphs (a) and (b) above (i) shall be payable quarterly in arrears
on the last day of each March, June, September and December of each year, commencing on September
30, 2009 and on the Maturity Date (and if later, the date the Loans and LC Exposure shall be repaid
in their entirety) (each such date, a “FEE PAYMENT DATE”); provided, that any such fees
accruing after the date on which the Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. All fees
shall be computed on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty (360) days and shall be payable for
the actual number of days elapsed.

(d) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable
in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent.

(e) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds,
to the Administrative Agent (or to the Issuing Bank, in the case of Fronting Fee and other standard
fees payable to the Issuing Bank) for distribution, in the case of Unused Facility Fees and Letter
of Credit Fees, to the Lenders. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances. Upon its
receipt of fees to which the Lenders are entitled, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit
such fees to the Lenders as provided herein.

SECTION 2.11. INTEREST.

(a) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate
(which rates are subject to change without notice to the Borrower as specified in the definition of
Alternate Base Rate) plus the Applicable Margin for ABR Loans.

(b) The Loans comprising each Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO
Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin for Eurodollar
Loans.

(c) [intentionally omitted].

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, while an Event of Default exists, the Borrower shall pay to
the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender (i) in the case of the outstanding Loans,
interest at a rate per annum equal to 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to the outstanding Loan
pursuant to Section 2.11(a) and (b), (ii) in the case of the Letter of Credit Fee, the rate per
annum used to calculate the Letter of Credit Fee pursuant to Section 2.10(b)(i) plus an additional
2% per annum and (iii) in the case of any other amount outstanding, 2% plus the rate applicable to
ABR Loans as provided in Section 2.11(a).

(e) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date
for the immediately preceding calendar month and upon termination of the Commitments; provided that
(i) interest on any Eurodollar Loan shall be paid at the end of each Interest Period but in no
event less frequently than every three months, (ii) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (d) of
this Section 2.11 shall be payable on demand, (iii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of
any Loan, accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date
of such repayment or prepayment and (iv) in the event of any conversion of any Eurodollar Loan
prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be
payable on the effective date of such conversion.

(f) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that
interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year
of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number
of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base
Rate and Adjusted LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination
shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

SECTION 2.12. ALTERNATE RATE OF INTEREST. If prior to the commencement of any
Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing:

(a) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent
manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO
Rate for such Interest Period; or

(b) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted LIBO Rate
for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or
Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for such
Interest Period; then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the
Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the
Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to
such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any
Loan to, or continuation of any Loan as, a Eurodollar Loan shall be ineffective and (ii) if any
Borrowing Request requests a Eurodollar Loan, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Loan, provided
that if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one Interest Period or one Type of
Borrowings, then the other Interest Periods and Type of Borrowings shall be permitted.

SECTION 2.13. INCREASED COSTS.

(a) If
any Change in Law shall:

	 	(i)	 	impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or
similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the
account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve
requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate) or the Issuing Bank;
or

	 
	 	(ii)	 	impose on any Lender or the Issuing Bank or the London interbank
market any other condition affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar
Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation
therein;

 

- 29 -

 

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or
maintaining any Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to
increase the cost to such Lender or the Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining
any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or
the Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrower will
pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as
will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs
incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) If any Lender or the Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding capital
requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the
Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company, if
any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of
Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank, to a level below
that which such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company
could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the
Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company
with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or
the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such
Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such
reduction suffered.

(c) A certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts
necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be,
as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall
be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the
case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Bank to demand compensation
pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s right
to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a
Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred
more than 270 days prior to the date that such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be,
notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of
such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided, further,
that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then
the 270-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect
thereof.

SECTION
2.14. BREAK FUNDING PAYMENTS. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any
Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a
result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last
day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or
prepay any Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of
whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.09(b) and is revoked in accordance therewith) or
(d) the assignment of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period
applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.17, then, in any
such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable
to such event. In the case of a Eurodollar Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be
deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount
of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not
occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period
from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in
the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the
Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such
principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid,
at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from
other banks in the Eurodollar market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or
amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the
Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the
amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

 

- 30 -

 

SECTION 2.15. TAXES.

(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any Obligation shall be made free and clear of
and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if the Borrower shall
be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum
payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including
deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent,
Lender or Issuing Bank (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have
received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii)
the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in
accordance with applicable law.

(b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority
in accordance with applicable law.

(c) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the Issuing Bank,
within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other
Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, on or
with respect to any payment by or on account of any Obligation (including Indemnified Taxes or
Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any
penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or
not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the
relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability
delivered to the Borrower by a Lender or the Issuing Bank, or by the Administrative Agent on its
own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the
Borrower to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the
original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such
payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax
under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such
jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the
Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable
law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably
requested by the Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a
reduced rate.

SECTION 2.16. PAYMENTS GENERALLY, PRO RATA TREATMENT, SHARING OF SET-OFFS.

(a) The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of
principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section
2.13, 2.14 or 2.15, or otherwise) prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date when due, in
immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time
on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on
the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments
shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices, except payments to be made directly to
the Issuing Bank as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.13,
2.14, 2.15 and 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative
Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the
appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on
a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding
Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable
for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in U.S. dollars.

 

- 31 -

 

(b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative
Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees then
due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, toward payment of any indemnities or expense
reimbursement due hereunder or under the Loan Documents to the Administrative Agent, (ii) second,
toward payment of any indemnities or expense
reimbursement due hereunder or under the Loan Documents to the Issuing Bank or any Lender,
(iii) third, toward payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties
entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, (iv)
fourth, toward payment of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder, ratably
among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC
Disbursements then due to such parties, (v) fifth, toward cash collateralization of any Letters of
Credit then outstanding to the extent so required to be paid in accordance with the terms hereunder
and (vi) sixth, toward payment of all other Obligations owing hereunder or under the other Loan
Documents.

(c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise,
obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or participations in
LC Disbursements resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the
aggregate amount of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements than the proportion received
by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at
face value) participations in the Loans and participations in LC Disbursements of other Lenders to
the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders
ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their
respective Loans and participations in LC Disbursements; provided that (i) if any such
participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is
recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of
such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed
to apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms
of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or
sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements to any assignee
or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the
provisions of this paragraph shall apply). The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to
the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation
pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of set-off and
counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor
of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the
date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the
Issuing Bank hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may
assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in
reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be,
the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the
Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative
Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Bank with interest
thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding
the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate
and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on
interbank compensation.

SECTION 2.17. MITIGATION OBLIGATIONS, REPLACEMENT OF LENDERS.

(a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.13, or if the Borrower is required to
pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender
pursuant to Section 2.15, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different
lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations
hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender,
such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section
2.13 or 2.15, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any
unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The
Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in
connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.13, or if the Borrower is required to
pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender
pursuant to Section 2.15, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to
such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without
recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its
interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such
obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided
that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent
(and, if a Commitment is being assigned, the Issuing Bank, which consent shall not unreasonably be
withheld), (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding
principal of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements, accrued interest thereon, accrued
fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such
outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other
amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under
Section 2.13 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.15, such assignment will result
in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such
assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise,
the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

SECTION 2.18. DEFAULTING LENDERS

(a) In addition to the rights and remedies that may be available to the Administrative
Agent or the Borrower under this Agreement or applicable law with respect to a Defaulting Lender, a
Defaulting Lender’s right to participate in the administration of the Loans, this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents, including without limitation, any right to vote in respect of, to consent to
or to direct any action or inaction of the Administrative Agent or to be taken into account in the
calculation of the Required Lenders, shall be suspended during the pendency of such failure or
refusal. If a Lender is a Defaulting Lender because it has failed to make timely payment to the
Administrative Agent of any amount required to be paid to the Administrative Agent hereunder
(without giving effect to any notice or cure periods), in addition to other rights and remedies
which the Administrative Agent or the Borrower may have under the immediately preceding provisions
or otherwise, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled (i) to collect interest from such
Defaulting Lender on such delinquent payment for the period from the date on which the payment was
due until the date on which the payment is made at the rate otherwise set forth herein or if no
rate is otherwise set forth herein at the Federal Funds Effective Rate, (ii) to withhold or setoff
and to apply in satisfaction of the defaulted payment and any related interest, any amounts
otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and
(iii) to bring an action or suit against such Defaulting Lender in a court of competent
jurisdiction to recover the defaulted amount and any related interest. Any amounts received by the
Administrative Agent in respect of a Defaulting Lender’s Loans shall not be paid to such Defaulting
Lender and shall be held uninvested by the Administrative Agent and either applied against the
purchase price of such Loans under the following subsection (b) or paid to such Defaulting Lender
upon such Defaulting Lender’s curing of its default.

 

- 33 -

 

(b) Any Lender who is not a Defaulting Lender may, but shall not be obligated to, in
its sole discretion, acquire all or a portion of a Defaulting Lender’s Commitments. Any Lender
desiring to exercise such right shall give written notice thereof to the Administrative Agent and
the Borrower no sooner than 2 Business Days and not later than 5 Business Days after receiving
written notice from Administrative Agent that such Defaulting Lender became a Defaulting Lender. If
more than one Lender exercises such right, each such Lender shall
have the right to acquire an amount of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitments in proportion to the
Commitments of the other Lenders exercising such right. If after such 5th Business Day, the Lenders
have not elected to purchase all of the Commitments of such Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower
may, by giving written notice thereof to the Administrative Agent, such Defaulting Lender and the
other Lenders, either (i) demand that such Defaulting Lender assign its Commitments subject to and
in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.04.(b) for the purchase price provided for below or
(ii) terminate the Commitments of such Defaulting Lender. No party hereto shall have any obligation
whatsoever to initiate any such replacement or to assist in finding such assignee. Upon any such
purchase or assignment, the Defaulting Lender’s interest in the Loans and its rights hereunder (but
not its liability in respect thereof or under the Loan Documents or this Agreement to the extent
the same relate to the period prior to the effective date of the purchase) shall terminate on the
date of purchase, and the Defaulting Lender shall promptly execute all documents reasonably
requested to surrender and transfer such interest to the purchaser or assignee thereof, including
an appropriate Assignment and Assumption and, notwithstanding Section 9.04.(b), shall pay to the
Administrative Agent an assignment fee in the amount of $7,000. The purchase price for the
Commitments of a Defaulting Lender shall be equal to the amount of the principal balance of the
Loans outstanding and owed by the Borrower to the Defaulting Lender plus any accrued but unpaid
interest thereon and accrued but unpaid fees. Prior to payment of such purchase price to a
Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent shall apply against such purchase price any amounts
retained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the last sentence of the immediately preceding
subsection (a). The Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive amounts owed to it by the
Borrower under the Loan Documents which accrued prior to the date of the default by the Defaulting
Lender, to the extent the same are received by the Administrative Agent from or on behalf of the
Borrower. There shall be no recourse against any Lender or the Administrative Agent for the payment
of such sums except to the extent of the receipt of payments from any other party or in respect of
the Loans.

 

- 34 -

 

SECTION 2.19. INACCURATE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OR COMPLIANCE CERTIFICATES. If the
Administrative Agent and/or any Lender determines that any financial statement, Quarterly
Compliance Certificate or Annual Compliance Certificate delivered pursuant to this Agreement is
inaccurate (regardless of whether this Agreement or the Commitments are in effect when such
inaccuracy is discovered), and such inaccuracy, if corrected, would have led to the application of
a higher Applicable Margin or Unused Facility Fee Rate for any period (an “APPLICABLE PERIOD”) than
the Applicable Margin and/or Unused Facility Fee Rate applied for such Applicable Period, and only
in such case, then the Borrower shall immediately (i) deliver to the Administrative Agent a
corrected compliance certificate for such Applicable Period, (ii) determine the Applicable Margin
and Unused Facility Fee Rate for such Applicable Period based on the corrected financial statements
and compliance certificate, and (iii) pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the
Lenders the accrued additional interest and/or fees owing as a result of such increased Applicable
Margin and/or Unused Facility Fee Rate for such Applicable Period, which payment shall be promptly
applied by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. This subsection
shall not in any way limit the rights of the Administrative Agent and Lenders (x) with respect to
Section 2.11(d) or (y) under Article VII.

the requisite power and authority to execute, deliver and perform the Guaranty and the other Loan
Documents to which it is a party. This Agreement and each other Loan Document to which the Borrower
is a party has been duly executed and delivered by the Borrower and constitutes a legal, valid and
binding obligation of the Borrower, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable

to such securities, except as noted on such Schedule. The outstanding Equity Interests of the
Company, the Borrower and each of their
respective Subsidiaries is duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. As of the

SECTION 3.03. GOVERNMENTAL APPROVALS, NO CONFLICTS.
Neither the Transactions nor the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents by the
Borrower, the Company or any of their Subsidiaries, as the case may be, (a) requires any consent or
approval of, registration or filing with, or any other action by, any Governmental Authority,
except such as have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect and except as may be
required under applicable federal securities laws, (b) violates any applicable law or regulation or
the charter, by-laws, partnership agreement or other organizational documents of the Company, the
Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries, or any order of any Governmental Authority, (c) violates or
results in a default under any indenture, agreement or other instrument binding upon the Company,
the Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries or their assets, or give rise to a right thereunder to
require any payment to be made by the Company, the Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries or (d)
results in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any asset of the Company, the Borrower or any
of their Subsidiaries.

SECTION
3.04. FINANCIAL CONDITION: NO MATERIAL ADVERSE CHANGE.

 (a) The Borrower has heretofore
furnished to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders (i) the Company’s annual audited financial
statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008, reported on by PriceWaterhouseCoopers, LLP,
independent public accountants, and (ii) the Company’s quarterly financial statements for the
quarter ended June 30, 2009, certified by the Company’s chief financial officer. Such financial
statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position and results of
operations and cash flows of the Consolidated Businesses as of such dates and for such periods in
accordance with GAAP, subject to year-end audit adjustments and the absence of footnotes in the
case of the statements referred to in clause (ii) above.

(b) Since December 31, 2008, there has been no change, event or circumstance which has had or
is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(c) None of the Company, the Borrower nor any of their respective Subsidiaries has any
Contingent Obligation or liability for any taxes, long-term leases or commitments, not reflected in
its audited financial statements delivered to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders on or prior

(v) file all tax returns and reports required to be filed by it with any Governmental Authority as
and when required to be filed or to pay any taxes, assessments, fees or other governmental charges

ARTICLE
VIII — THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent
as its agent and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to
exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof, together
with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

The bank serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers
in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the
Administrative Agent, and such bank and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and
generally engage in any kind of business with the Company, the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the
Company or the Borrower or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Administrative Agent
hereunder.

The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set
forth herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent shall
not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to
take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and
powers expressly contemplated hereby that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise in
writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be
necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02), and (c) except as expressly set
forth herein, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable
for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Company, the Borrower or any of their
Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Administrative Agent or any
of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action
taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other
number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in
Section 9.02) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The
Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default
except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal and interest required to be paid to the
Administrative Agent for the account of Lenders unless and until written notice thereof is given to
the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or a Lender. The Administrative Agent shall not be
responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or
representation made in or in connection with this Agreement by a Person other than the
Administrative Agent, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered
hereunder or in connection herewith by a Person other than the Administrative Agent, (iii) the
performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set
forth herein by a Person other than the Administrative Agent, (iv) the validity, enforceability,
effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement or any other agreement, instrument or document, or
(v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to
confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for
relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other
writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. The
Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and
believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying
thereon. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel, independent accountants and other
experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in
accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

The Administrative Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers
by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative
Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers
through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs
shall apply to any such sub-agent and
to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to
their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided
for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.

 

- 54 -

 

Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided in
this paragraph, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders, the
Issuing Bank and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the
right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been
so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after
the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative
Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, appoint a successor Administrative Agent
which shall be a bank with an office in New York State, or an Affiliate of any such bank. Upon the
acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor
shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the
retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its
duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative
Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the
Borrower and such successor. After the Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions
of this Article and Section 9.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring
Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions
taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as Administrative Agent.

Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the
Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has
deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each
Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative
Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time
deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based
upon this Agreement, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

SECTION 9.02. WAIVERS, AMENDMENTS.

(a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any
Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any
single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of
steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the
Issuing Bank and the Lenders hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or
remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to
any departure by the Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be
permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only
in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a
waiver of any Default or Event of Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any
Lender or the Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default or Event of Default at
the time.

(b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended
or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower
and the Required Lenders or by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with the prior written
consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase the Commitment
of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender or, except as is otherwise set forth in
this Agreement, increase the aggregate amount of the Lenders’ Commitments without the written
consent of all Lenders, (ii) change the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce
the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of
each Lender affected thereby, (iii) postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount
of any Loan or LC Disbursement (except as expressly set forth in the definition of Maturity Date),
or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse
any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the
written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iv) change Section 2.16(b) or (c) in a manner
that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of
each Lender, (v) release any Equity Interests or any other material collateral that may now or
hereafter secure amounts owing under this Agreement, (vi) release any Guarantor from its
obligations under the Guaranty (except in accordance with Section 5.13(c) hereof) or (vii) change
any of the provisions of this Section or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other
provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify
any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written
consent of each Lender, provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise
affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank hereunder without the
prior written consent of the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be.

SECTION 9.03. EXPENSES; INDEMNITY, DAMAGE WAIVER.

(a) The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred
by the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and
disbursements of outside and in-house counsel for the Administrative Agent, in connection with the
syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration of
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the
provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall
be consummated), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Issuing Bank in
connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand
for payment thereunder and (iii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent,
the Issuing Bank or any Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for
the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or
protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement, including its rights under this
Section, and the other Loan Documents including, without limitation, the Note, or in connection
with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such
Loans or Letters of Credit.

 

- 56 -

 

(b) The Borrower hereby indemnifies the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and each
Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an
“INDEMNITEE”) against, and holds each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims,
damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any
counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in
connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan
Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the
parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document or the
consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan or
Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the Issuing Bank to
honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with
such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or
alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation,
investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or
any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such
indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims,
damages, liabilities or related expenses to the extent arising from the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of such Indemnitee, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final,
non-appealable judgment.

(c) To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the
Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender
severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such
Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense
or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or
indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by
or asserted against the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank in its capacity as such.

(d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower shall not assert, and hereby
waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect,
consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in
connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or
instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the
proceeds thereof.

(e) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than ten Business Days after
written demand therefor.

SECTION 9.04. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS.

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any
Affiliate of the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that the Borrower may not
assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written
consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such
consent shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be
construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and
assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of
Credit) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or
claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

 

- 57 -

 

(b) Any Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and
obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the
time owing to it); provided that (i) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an
Affiliate of a Lender, each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of an
assignment of all or a portion of a Commitment or any Lender’s obligations in respect of its LC
Exposure, the Issuing Bank) must give their prior written consent to such assignment (which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld), (ii) except in the case of an assignment to a
Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the
assigning Lender’s Commitment, the amount of the Commitment of the assigning Lender subject to each
such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such
assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall be an integral multiple of $1,000,000
and shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent
otherwise consent, (iii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate
part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, (iv) the parties to
each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance,
together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, and (v) the assignee, if it shall not be
a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire; and provided
further that any consent of the Borrower otherwise required under this paragraph shall not be
required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Subject to acceptance and recording
thereof pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in
each Assignment and Acceptance the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent
of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a
Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the
interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this
Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s
rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall
continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.13, 2.14, 2.15 and 9.03). Any assignment or
transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this
paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a
participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (e) of this Section.

(c) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall
maintain at one of its offices in the State of New York a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance
delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and
the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender
pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “REGISTER”). The entries in the Register shall
be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders may
treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender
hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register
shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, the Issuing Bank and any Lender, at any
reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning
Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee
shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph
(b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this
Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the
information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of
this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(e) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the Issuing
Bank, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “PARTICIPANT”) in all or a
portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of
its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this
Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other
parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative
Agent, the Issuing Bank and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such
Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement
or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender
shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or
waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide
that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment,
modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that affects such
Participant. Subject to paragraph (f) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant
shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.13, 2.14, 2.15 and 9.03(b) to the same extent as if
it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this
Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of
Section 9.08 as though it were a
Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.16(c) as though it were a
Lender.

 

- 58 -

 

(f) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.13 or
2.15 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the
participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is
made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it
were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.17 unless the Borrower is notified
of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the
Borrower, to comply with Section 2.15(e) as though it were a Lender.

(g) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of
its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or
assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any
such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a
security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any
such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

SECTION 9.05. SURVIVAL. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the
Borrower herein and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or
pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto
and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Loans and
issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or
on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may
have had notice or knowledge of any Default, Event of Default or incorrect representation or
warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect
as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount
payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and
so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.13, 2.14,
2.15, 2.19 and 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless
of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Obligations, the
expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this
Agreement or any provision hereof.

SECTION 9.06. COUNTERPARTS, INTEGRATION, EFFECTIVENESS.
This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different
counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together
shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and any separate letter agreements with respect
to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties
relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and
understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement shall become
effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative
Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of
each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of
the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart
of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy or other electronic transmission shall be
effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

SECTION 9.07. SEVERABILITY. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of
such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and
enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof, and the invalidity of a particular provision in
a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 9.08. RIGHT OF SETOFF. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each of its Affiliates
is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to
set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final
(other than those accounts in which the Borrower is holding such monies solely as custodian or
agent or in trust, such as tenant security deposit accounts)) at any time held and other
obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of
the Borrower against any of and all the Obligations now or hereafter existing under this Agreement
held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under
this Agreement and although such Obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this
Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such
Lender may have.

 

- 59 -

 

SECTION 9.09. GOVERNING LAW, JURISDICTION, CONSENT TO SERVICE OF PROCESS.

(a) This Agreement and all the other Loan Documents shall be construed in accordance with and
governed by the law of the State of New York.

(b) The Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property,
to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in Monroe
County and of the United States District Court of the Western District of New York, and any
appellate court from any thereof, or such other jurisdiction or venue as the Required Lenders may
determine, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or for
recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and
determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court, or in
such other jurisdiction or venue as the Required Lenders may so determine. Each of the parties
hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be
enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.
Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or
any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement against
the Borrower or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

(c) The Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may

For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the
Borrower relating to the Borrower or its business, other than any such information that is
available to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis
prior to disclosure by the Borrower; provided that, in the case of information received from the
Borrower after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as
confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in
this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has
exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such
Person would accord to its own confidential information.

SECTION 9.13. INTEREST RATE LIMITATION. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at
any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan or other Obligation, together with all fees,
charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan or Obligation under applicable
law (collectively the “CHARGES”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “MAXIMUM RATE”) which
may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan or
Obligation in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan
or Obligation hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to
the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable
in respect of such Loan or Obligation but were not payable as a result of the operation of this
Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other
Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated
amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of
repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.

SECTION 9.14. PATRIOT ACT. The Lenders and the Administrative Agent each hereby notifies the
Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56
(signed into law October 26, 2001)), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that
identifies the Borrower and the Guarantors, which information includes the name and address of the
Borrower and the Guarantors and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative
Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower and the Guarantors in accordance with such Act.

FORM OF 

GUARANTY

THIS GUARANTY dated as of September 1, 2009 (this “Guaranty”), executed and delivered by each
of the undersigned and the other Persons from time to time party hereto pursuant to the execution
and delivery of an Accession Agreement in the form of Annex I hereto (all of the undersigned,
together with such other Persons each a “Guarantor” and collectively, the “Guarantors”) in favor of
Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company, as Administrative Agent (the “Agent”) for the Lenders (as
defined below) under that certain Credit Agreement dated as of September 1, 2009 (as amended,
restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”; capitalized
terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have their respective defined meanings
given them in the Credit Agreement), by and among Home Properties, L.P. (the “Borrower”), Home
Properties, Inc. (the “Company”), the lenders party thereto and their assignees under Section 9.04.
thereof (the “Lenders”), the Agent and the other parties thereto, for the benefit of the Agent, the
Lenders and the Issuing Bank (the Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, together with their
respective successors and assigns, each individually a “Guarantied Party” and collectively the
“Guarantied Parties”).

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Bank have
agreed to make available to the Borrower certain financial accommodations on the terms and
conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement;

WHEREAS, the Borrower and each of the Guarantors, though separate legal entities, are mutually
dependent on each other in the conduct of their respective businesses as an integrated operation
and have determined it to be in their mutual best interests to obtain financing from the Agent, the
Lenders and the Issuing Bank through their collective efforts;

WHEREAS, each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from
the Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Bank’s making such financial accommodations available to the
Borrower under the Credit Agreement and, accordingly, each Guarantor is willing to guarantee the
Borrower’s obligations to the Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Bank on the terms and conditions
contained herein; and

WHEREAS, each Guarantor’s execution and delivery of this Guaranty is a condition to the Agent,
the Lenders and the Issuing Bank’s making, and continuing to make, such financial accommodations to
the Borrower.

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are
hereby acknowledged by each Guarantor, each Guarantor agrees as follows:

1. Guaranty. (a) Each Guarantor hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably
guarantees, and each Guarantor hereby agrees to be liable for, the full, indefeasible, prompt and
punctual payment and performance when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or
otherwise, of all of the following (all of which are collectively referred to herein as the
“Guaranteed Obligations”): (i) all obligations, liabilities and indebtedness of any kind, nature
and description of the Borrower to any Guarantied Party arising at any time under the Credit
Agreement or under any other Loan Document whether now existing or hereafter arising including,
without limitation, principal, interest, late charges, other charges, fees, reimbursement
obligations, costs and expenses, however evidenced, whether as principal, surety, endorser,
guarantor or otherwise, whether now existing or hereafter arising, whether arising after the
commencement of any case with respect to the Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code or any similar
statute (including, without limitation, the payment of interest and other amounts, which would
accrue and become due but for the commencement of such case and including loans, interest, fees,
charges and expenses related thereto and all other obligations under the Loan Documents of the
Borrower or its successors to any Guarantied Party arising after the commencement of such case),
whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, joint or several, due or not due, primary or
secondary, liquidated or unliquidated, secured or unsecured, (ii) all expenses (including, without
limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses) incurred by the Agent and/or any other
Guarantied Party in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, recording,
administration, collection, liquidation, enforcement and defense of the Borrower’s and/or any
Guarantor’s obligations, liabilities and indebtedness as aforesaid to the Guarantied Parties, and
the rights of the Guarantied Parties in collateral, if any, under any of the Loan Documents or in
any way involving claims by or against the Agent or any other Guarantied Party directly or
indirectly arising out of or related to the relationships between the Borrower, the Guarantors and
the Guarantied Parties under the Loan Documents, whenever such expenses are incurred, including
after
the commencement of any case with respect to the Borrower or the Guarantor under the Bankruptcy
Code or any similar statute, except for such expenses to the extent resulting from the gross
negligence of the Agent or any other Guarantied Party proven by clear and convincing evidence (and
not merely a preponderance of the evidence) or willful misconduct of the Agent or any other
Guarantied Party, and (iii) all other Obligations.

 

B-4

 

(b) This Guaranty is and shall be construed to be an absolute, unconditional,
irrevocable, present and continuing guaranty of payment of the Guaranteed Obligations and not of
collection and the liability of each Guarantor is the liability of a surety and, is in no way
conditioned or contingent upon any attempt to collect any Guaranteed Obligations from the Borrower,
any other Guarantor or any other Person, to realize upon collateral, if any, or upon any other
condition or contingency; and, accordingly, in the event that any of the Guaranteed Obligations
shall not be paid in full when the same becomes due and payable whether by maturity, acceleration
or otherwise, or at any time thereafter, the Agent, for its benefit and the benefit of the other
Guarantied Parties, shall have the right to proceed against any Guarantor. Notwithstanding the
above, in the event of the commencement of any case with respect to the Borrower under the
Bankruptcy Code or any similar statute (a “Bankruptcy Action”), or the Agent, for its benefit and
the benefit of the other Guarantied Parties, is otherwise prohibited or delayed from taking or
continuing action against the Borrower, the Agent, for its benefit and the benefit of the other
Guarantied Parties, shall have the right to proceed against each Guarantor immediately without
taking any action or proceeding of any kind against the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other
Person to enforce the Guarantied Parties’ rights under the Loan Documents. This Guaranty shall
continue in full force and effect until (i) the Commitments shall have terminated and (ii) all the
Guaranteed Obligations have been indefeasibly paid and satisfied in full. Nothing shall discharge
or satisfy the liability of the Guarantors hereunder or limit the same except the termination of
the Commitments and the indefeasible full payment and satisfaction of all Guaranteed Obligations.
At any time that the amounts received by the Agent in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations are
insufficient to pay fully all of Guarantied Obligations, the Agent shall apply the amounts received
in accordance with Section 2.16(b) of the Credit Agreement.

(c) Any payment by any Guarantor shall be made to the Agent at 255 East Avenue,
Rochester, New York, 14604, Attention: Ms. Lisa Plescia, Vice President (the “Payment Office”).
Each Guarantor shall make all payments to the Agent on the Guaranteed Obligations free and clear
of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any setoff, counterclaim, defense,
duties, taxes, levies, imposts, fees, deductions, withholding, restrictions, or conditions of any
kind.

2. Waivers. (a) Each Guarantor hereby waives: (i) notice of acceptance of this
Guaranty, notice of the making of Loans to the Borrower, notice of the issuance of Letters of
Credit at the request of the Borrower and presentment, demand, dishonor, protest, notice of
protest, promptness, diligence, notice of nonpayment or default, notice of any change in Borrower’s
financial condition, notice of any change in the payment terms of the Guaranteed Obligations or any
part thereof, notice of any modification to the Credit Agreement or to any other Loan Document, and
all other notices of any nature or kind to which the Borrower or such Guarantor might otherwise be
entitled; (ii) any requirement that the Agent or any other Guarantied Party protect, secure,
perfect or insure any security interest in or other lien on any assets of the Borrower or exhaust
any right or action against the Borrower or any other Person or any collateral in connection with
the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby; (iii) the
filing of any claim with a court in the event of receivership of bankruptcy of the Borrower; (iv)
the benefit of any statute of limitations; and (v) all demands whatsoever (and any requirement that
same be made on the Borrower as a condition precedent to such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder).

(b) Each Guarantor agrees that notwithstanding the foregoing and without limiting the
generality of the foregoing if, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default, the Guarantied Parties or any one of them is prevented by applicable law from exercising
the rights of the Guarantied Parties to accelerate the maturity of the Guaranteed Obligations, to
collect interest on the Guaranteed Obligations, or to enforce or exercise any other right or remedy
with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations by reason of any automatic stay or otherwise, each
Guarantor shall pay to the Agent, for its benefit and the benefit of the other Guarantied Parties,
upon demand therefor, the amount that would otherwise have been due and payable had such rights and
remedies been permitted to be exercised by the Guarantied Parties.

 

B-5

 

(c) Each Guarantor hereby assumes responsibility for continuously keeping itself informed of
the financial condition of the Borrower, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of
nonpayment of the
Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof that diligent inquiry would reveal. Each Guarantor
hereby agrees that neither the Agent nor any other Guarantied Party shall have any duty to advise
such Guarantor of information known to the Agent or any other Guarantied Party regarding Borrower’s
financial or other condition or any other circumstance. In the event that the Agent or any other
Guarantied Party in its sole discretion undertakes at any time or from time to time to provide any
such information to the Guarantors, neither the Agent nor such other Guarantied Party shall be
under any obligation to (i) undertake any investigation not a part of its regular business routine,
(ii) disclose any information which, pursuant to accepted or reasonable banking or commercial
finance practice, the Agent or such Guarantied Party wishes to maintain confidential or (iii) make
any other or future disclosure of such information or any other information to the Guarantors.

(d) Each Guarantor consents and agrees that neither the Agent nor any other Guarantied party
shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of such Guarantor or otherwise in
connection with obtaining payment of any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations from such Guarantor
or from any other Person or source.

3. Guaranty Absolute. (a) Each Guarantor guaranties that the Guaranteed
Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and the
other Loan Documents, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereinafter in effect in
any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Guarantied Parties with respect
thereto. The amount of the Guaranteed Obligations shall not be diminished by, and the liability of
each Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of:

(i) Any amendment, modification, supplement, extension, renewal, restatement or waiver
of all or any part of the Credit Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any other
document or instrument evidencing or relating to any Guaranteed Obligations, including,
without limitation, extensions or any other change of time, manner or place of payment of or
increase or decrease in the amount of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and this Guaranty
shall apply to the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the Guaranteed
Obligations as so amended, modified, supplemented, renewed, rested or extended, increased or
decreased;

(ii) The taking, exchange, surrender and releasing of collateral, if any, or guarantees
now or at any time held by or available to the Guarantied Parties for the obligations of the
Borrower or any other party at any time liable on or in respect of the Guaranteed
Obligations; any failure or delay by the Agent or any other Guarantied Party to protect,
secure, insure, perfect or realize upon, or any negligence by the Agent or any other
Guarantied Party with respect to, or any substitution or release, in whole or in part, of
security, if any, for the Loan Documents or this Guaranty, hereunder or otherwise which may
be held at any time by any of the Guarantied Parties or any of their respective successors
or assigns;

(iii) The exercise of, or refraining from the exercise of, except as required in this
Guaranty, any rights, powers or remedies (A) against the Borrower, any Guarantor or any
other Person or any assets of any of them of (B) under, or in respect of the Loan Documents
or any security held by the Agent or the other Guarantied Parties, if any, with respect
thereto;

(iv) The settlement, compromise or release of, or the waiver of any default with
respect to, any of the Guaranteed Obligations, any security therefor, or any liability of
any other party with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, or any subordination of the
payment of the Guaranteed Obligations to the payment of any other liability of the Borrower
or any other Guarantor;

(v) Any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition,
liquidation, or other like proceeding relating to any Guarantor, the Borrower, any affiliate
of the Guarantors or any other Person, or any action taken with respect to this Guaranty by
any trustee or receiver, or by any court, in any such proceeding;

(vi) Any limitation of the Borrower’s liability under the Loan Documents or any
limitation of the Borrower’s liability which may now or hereafter be imposed by any statute,
regulation or rule of law, or any illegality, irregularity, invalidity or unenforceability,
in whole or in part, of the Loan Documents or any term thereof;

 

B-6

 

(vii) Any sale, lease or transfer of any or all of the assets of the Borrower to any
other Person;

(viii) Any invalidity, illegality, irregularity or unenforceability of all or any part
of the Credit Agreement, the Loan Documents or the Guaranteed Obligations or any other
circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to or legal or equitable
discharge of the Borrower in respect of any of the Credit Agreement, the Loan Documents or
the Guaranteed Obligations, or any Guarantor in respect of this Guaranty;

(ix) Any furnishing to the Agent or any other Guarantied Party of any security for the
Guaranteed Obligations, or any sale, exchange, release or surrender of, or realization on,
any collateral securing any of the Obligations;

(x) Any election by the Agent and/or the other Guarantied Parties in any proceeding
under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code of the application of section 111 1(b)(2) of the
Bankruptcy Code;

(xi) Any borrowing or grant of a security interest by the Borrower, as
debtorin-possession, under section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any consent to the use of

(xii) The disallowance, under section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code, of all or any portion
of the claims of the Guarantied Parties for payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations;

(xiii) Any act or failure to act by the Borrower or any other Person which may
adversely affect any Guarantor’s subrogation rights, if any, against the Borrower to recover
payments made under this Guaranty;

(xiv) any nonperfection or impairment of any security interest or other Lien on any
collateral, if any, securing in any way any of the Obligations;

(xv) any application of sums paid by the Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Person
with respect to the liabilities of the Borrower to the Agent and the Guarantied Parties,
regardless of what liabilities of the Borrower remain unpaid;

(xv) any defect, limitation or insufficiency in the borrowing powers of the Borrower or
in the exercise thereof;

(xvi) any defense, set-off, claim or counterclaim (other than indefeasible payment and
performance in full) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by the Borrower or
any other Person against the Agent or any other Guarantied Party;

(xvii) any change in the corporate or partnership existence, as the case may be,
structure or ownership of the Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Person;

(xviii) any statement, representation or warranty made or deemed made by or on behalf
of the Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Person under any Loan Document, or any amendment
hereto or thereto, proves to have been incorrect or misleading in any respect; or

(xix) Any other circumstance, whether or not any Guarantor shall have had notice or
knowledge thereof.

(b) Each Guarantor shall be liable for all (including but not limited to attorneys’ fees
of the Agent and the Guarantied Parties) fees and expenses which would have been payable by the
Borrower pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, whether
arising before or after the commencement of any case with respect to the Borrower under the
Bankruptcy Code or any similar statute, even if the Borrower’s liability for such amounts does not,
or ceases to, exist by operation of law. Each Guarantor shall also be liable to the Agent and the
other Guarantied Parties for payment of all attorneys’ fees, disbursements and other
expenses incurred and to be incurred by the Agent and the other Guarantied Parties in connection
with the enforcement of Agent’s and other Guarantied Parties’ rights under this Guaranty.

 

B-7

 

4. Subordination; Subrogation. (a) Until the Commitments shall have been
terminated and all Guaranteed Obligations have been indefeasibly paid and satisfied in full, in
cash, each Guarantor expressly covenants and agrees for the benefit of the Guarantied Parties that
payment of all amounts now or hereafter owed to such Guarantor by the Borrower (the “Junior
Claims”) is hereby subordinated and junior in right of payment to all Guarantied Obligations. All
Junior Claims, and any security and guarantees therefore, now or hereafter owed to any Guarantor by
the Borrower is hereby assigned to the Lenders as security for the Guaranteed Obligations.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall be entitled to make, and each Guarantor to
receive, scheduled payments with respect to Junior Claims until a Default or Event of Default shall
have occurred under the Credit Agreement.

(b) Nothing herein contained is intended or shall be construed to give to any
Guarantor, until the Guaranteed Obligations are indefeasibly paid in full to the Guaranteed Party,
any right of subrogation in or under the Loan Documents, or any right to participate in any way
therein, or in the right, title or interest of any Guarantied Party in any assets of the Borrower.
Notwithstanding any payments made under this Guaranty, all rights of subrogation and participation
are hereby expressly waived until such time as the Commitments shall have terminated and all the
Guaranteed Obligations have been indefeasibly paid and satisfied in full, and each Guarantor
irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that such Guarantor shall not assert or enforce (i)
statutory, contractual, common law, equitable and all other claims against the Borrower or any
assets of the Borrower, for subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification,
setoff or other recourse in respect to sums paid or payable to the Agent for the benefit of the
Guarantied Parties by such Guarantor hereunder and (ii) any and all other benefits which such
Guarantor might otherwise directly or indirectly receive or be entitled to receive by reason of any
amounts paid by or collected or due from the Borrower upon the Guaranteed Obligations or realized
from their property.

5. Acceleration. Upon occurrence of an “Event of Default” as defined in any of the
Loan Documents and in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Agent may, without
notice to any Guarantor, cause the obligations and liabilities of the Borrower to the Guarantied
Parties, whether or not then immediately due and payable, to become immediately due and payable
hereunder as to the Borrower or as to any Guarantor, and the Agent, for the benefit of the
Guarantied Parties, shall thereupon be entitled to enforce the Obligations of the Borrower under
the Loan Documents and of any Guarantor hereunder. In the event that the Agent and/or any other
Guarantied Party shall be stayed or otherwise precluded by any law or rule, or any order of any
court, from declaring or causing such Obligations or liabilities to become immediately due and
payable with respect to the Borrower, each Guarantor hereby agrees, to the fullest extent permitted
by law, that for purposes of this Guaranty, the Agent may nevertheless cause such Obligations and
liabilities to become immediately due and payable by such Guarantor by notice to such effect to
such Guarantor and such Guarantor shall thereupon pay all Guaranteed Obligations in full or, as the
Agent may direct, at the Agents’ sole option, purchase all Guaranteed Obligations (without
recourse) by paying the full amount thereof to the Lenders in cash.

6. Account Stated. The books and records of any Guarantied Party showing the account
between such Guarantied Party and the Borrower shall be admissible in evidence in any action or
proceeding against or involving any Guarantor as prima facie evidence of the items therein set
forth, and any periodic statements of any Guarantied Party rendered to the Borrower shall be deemed
conclusively correct and constitute an account stated between such Guarantied Party and the
Borrower and be binding on each Guarantor, absent manifest errors or omissions.

 

B-8

 

7. Reinstatement/Claims. If after receipt of any payment of any of the Guaranteed
Obligations, the Agent and/or any other Guarantied Party is required to surrender or return such
payment or proceeds to any Person for any reason including, without limitation, by reason of (a)
any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative body having jurisdiction over the
Agent or such other Guarantied Party, as the case may be, or any of its property, or (b) any
settlement or compromise of any such claim effected in good faith by the Agent or such other
Guarantied Party with any such claimant, including the Borrower and any trustee, custodian or
receiver for the Borrower or its property (items (a) and (b) referred to herein as “Claims”), then
the Guaranteed Obligations intended to be satisfied by such payment or proceeds shall be deemed
reinstated and continue, and this
Guaranty shall continue in full force and effect as if such payment or proceeds had not been
received by the Agent and/or such other Guarantied Party, notwithstanding the return or destruction
of this Guaranty, delivery of any release to any Guarantor, to Borrower or to any other Person, or
any other matter. In addition, with respect to any Claims, the Agent and/or such other Guarantied
Party, as the case may be, shall notify each Guarantor and extend to them reasonable opportunity to
defend the same at their expense, and if the Agent and/or such other Guarantied Party repays all or
part of said amount by reason of such Claims, then and in such event each Guarantor agrees that any
such judgment, decree, order, settlement or compromise shall be binding upon such Guarantor,
notwithstanding the cancellation or termination of any of the Loan Documents or any other
instrument evidencing any of said obligations, and such Guarantor shall be and remain liable to the
Agent and/or such other Guarantied Party hereunder for the amount so repaid or recovered to the
same extent as if such amount had never originally been received by the Agent and/or such other
Guarantied Party, notwithstanding the destruction or return of this Guaranty to Guarantors,
Borrower or any Person of any release or any other matter. Each Guarantor shall be liable to pay to
the Agent and each other Guarantied Party, and does hereby indemnify and hold the Agent and each
other Guarantied Party harmless for the amount of any payments or proceeds surrendered or returned.
This Section 7 shall remain effective notwithstanding any contrary action, which may be taken by
the Agent and the Guarantied Parties in reliance upon such payment or proceeds. This Section 7
shall survive the termination of this Guaranty.

8. Amendments and Waivers. Neither this Guaranty nor any provision hereof shall be
amended, modified, waived or discharged orally or by course of conduct, but only by a written
agreement, signed by an authorized officer of the Agent, subject to Section 9.02 of the Credit
Agreement. Neither the Agent nor any other Guarantied Party shall, by any act, delay, omission or
otherwise be deemed to have expressly or impliedly waived any of its rights, powers or remedies
unless such waiver shall be in writing and signed by an authorized officer of the Agent, subject to
Section 9.02 of the Credit Agreement. Any such waiver shall be enforceable only to the extent
specifically set forth therein. A waiver by the Agent and the other Guarantied Parties of any
right, power or remedy on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to or waiver of any such
right, power or remedy that the Agent or the other Guarantied Parties would otherwise have on any
future occasion, whether similar in kind or otherwise.

9. Governing Law Choice of Forum Service of Process: Jury Trial Waiver.

(a) THIS GUARANTY SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE
OF NEW YORK.

(b) Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its
property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in
Monroe County and of the United States District Court of the Western District of New York, and any
appellate court from any thereof, or such other jurisdiction or venue as the Required Lenders may
determine, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Guaranty, or for
recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and
determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court, or in
such other jurisdiction or venue as the Required Lenders may so determine. Each Guarantor hereto
agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be
enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.
Nothing in this Guaranty shall affect any right that the Agent or any other Guarantied Party may
otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Guaranty against any Guarantor or
its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

(c) Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may
legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of
venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Guaranty in any court
referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives,
to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of
such action or proceeding in any such court.

(d) Each party to this Guaranty irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner
provided for notices in Section 13 of this Guaranty. Nothing in this Guaranty will affect the right
of any party to this Guaranty to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

 

B-9

 

(e) WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY
APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY
IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR
THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH
PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS
REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION,
SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE
BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND
CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

(f) Neither the Agent nor any other Guarantied Party shall have any liability to any Guarantor
(whether in tort, contract, equity or otherwise) for losses suffered by such Guarantor in
connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to the transactions or relationships
contemplated by this Guaranty, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection herewith,
unless it is determined by clear and convincing evidence (and not merely a preponderance of the
evidence) or court order binding on the Agent and/or any other Guarantied Party that the losses
were the result of acts or omissions constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct or the
Agent and/or such other Guarantied Party. In any such litigation, the Agent and/or any other
Guarantied Party shall be entitled to the benefit of the rebuttable presumption that it acted in
good faith and with the exercise of ordinary care in the performance by it of terms of the Credit
Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

10. Set-off; Deposit Balances. Each Guarantor further agrees that any money or
property at any time in the possession of any Guarantied Party belonging to such Guarantor,
including any deposit balances (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), and all
property or the proceeds thereof held by any Guarantied Party for any purpose including
safekeeping, custody, transmission, collection or pledge (other than those accounts in which such
Guarantor is holding such monies solely as custodian or agent or in trust, such as tenant security
deposit accounts, reserve accounts under existing financing and payroll accounts), is being held as
collateral security for the payment of any liability of such Guarantor to the Guarantied Parties
under this Guaranty, whether due or not, with full power and authority to apply any deposit
balances to the extinguishment of any such liability and to sell, enforce, collect or otherwise
realize on said money or property in accordance with applicable law. Until the occurrence of an
Event of Default under the Credit Agreement, the Notes or under any other Loan Document, each
Guarantor shall have full access and use of such money or property in possession of any of the
Guarantied Parties. Nothing in this Section 10 or otherwise, however, modifies, limits or abridges
any common law right of set-off that any Guarantied Party has or might have. The provisions of this
Guaranty shall override any inconsistent provisions of any custody agreement or investment
management agreement with any Guarantied Party, whether heretofore or hereafter executed.

11. Powers. Each Guarantor agrees that neither the Agent nor any other Guarantied
Party is obligated in any manner to inquire into the powers of the Borrower or any other Guarantor,
or its successors, its or their directors, officers, or agents, acting or purporting to act on its
or their behalf, and any liabilities purporting to be contracted for the Borrower or such
Guarantor, or its successors, by its or their directors, officers or agents, in the professed
exercise of such powers, shall be deemed to form a part of the Guaranteed Obligations even though
the incurrence of such liabilities be in excess of the powers of the Borrower, its successors, its
or their directors, officers or agents aforesaid, or shall be in any way irregular, defective or
informal.

12. Avoidance Provisions. It is the intent of each Guarantor, the Agent and each other
Guarantied Party that in any Bankruptcy Action, such Guarantor’s maximum obligation hereunder shall
equal, but not exceed, the maximum amount which would not otherwise cause the obligations of such
Guarantor hereunder (or any other obligations of such Guarantor to the Agent and the other
Guarantied Parties) to be avoidable or unenforceable against such Guarantor in such Bankruptcy
Action as a result of applicable law, including without limitation, (a) Section 548 of the
Bankruptcy Code and (b) any state fraudulent transfer or fraudulent conveyance act or statute
applied in such Bankruptcy Action, whether by virtue of Section 544 of the Bankruptcy Code or
otherwise. The applicable laws under which the possible avoidance or unenforceability of the
obligations of each Guarantor hereunder (or any other obligations of such Guarantor to the Agent
and the Lenders) shall be determined in any such Bankruptcy Action are referred to as the
“Avoidance Provisions”. Accordingly, to the extent that the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder
would otherwise be subject to avoidance under the Avoidance Provisions, the maximum Guarantied
Obligations for which such Guarantor shall be liable hereunder shall be reduced to that amount
which, as of the time any of the Guarantied Obligations are deemed to have been incurred under the
Avoidance Provisions, would not cause the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder (or any other
obligations of such Guarantor to the Guarantied Parties), to be
subject to avoidance under the Avoidance Provisions. This Section is intended solely to
preserve the rights of the Agent and the other Guarantied Parties hereunder to the maximum extent
that would not cause the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder to be subject to avoidance under
the Avoidance Provisions, and no Guarantor or any other Person shall have any right or claim under
this Section as against the Agent or any other Guarantied Party that would not otherwise be
available to such Person under the Avoidance Provisions.

13. Notices. All notices, requests and demands hereunder shall be in writing and (a)

provision, and (b) deemed to have been given or made on receipt if delivered (i) in person, (ii) by
telecopier, (iii) by overnight courier service and (iv) by certified or registered mail, return
receipt requested.

14. Partial Invalidity. If any term or provision of this Guaranty is held to be
invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not invalidate this Guaranty as
a whole, but this Guaranty shall be construed as though it did not contain the particular provision
held to be invalid or unenforceable and the rights and obligations of the parties shall be
construed and enforced only to such extent as shall be permitted by applicable law.

15. Entire Agreement. This Guaranty represents the entire agreement and understanding
of the Agent, the other Guarantied Parties and the Guarantors concerning the subject matter hereof
and supercedes all other prior agreements, understandings, negotiations and discussions,
representations, warranties, commitments, proposals, offers and contracts concerning the subject
matter hereof, whether oral or written.

16. Successors and Assigns. This Guaranty shall be binding upon the Guarantors and its
successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the Agent, the other Guarantied Parties
and their successors, endorsees, transferees and assigns.

17. Construction. All references to the term “Guarantor” wherever used herein shall
include Guarantor’s successors and assigns, individually and collectively (including, without
limitation, any receiver, trustee or custodian for the Guarantor or any of its assets or the
Guarantor in its capacity as debtor or debtor-in-possession under the Bankruptcy Code). All
references to the term “Guarantied Parties” whenever used herein shall mean the Guarantied Parties
and their respective successors and assigns, and all references to the term “Borrower” wherever

Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company,

as Administrative Agent

and each of the Lenders party to the Credit Agreement

 referred to below

255 East Avenue

Rochester, New York 14604

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We are counsel to Home Properties, L.P., a New York limited partnership (the “Borrower”),
and Home Properties, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Guarantor”), and have reviewed the Credit
Agreement dated as of the date hereof (the “Credit Agreement”) among the Borrower, the Guarantor,
Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company, as Administrative Agent, and the lenders party thereto
(the “Lenders”), each of the Notes made by the Borrower, dated as of the date hereof, and the
Guaranty, dated as of the date hereof, by the Guarantor. Terms defined in the Credit Agreement
are used herein with the same meanings.

We have examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our
satisfaction, of such documents, corporate records, certificates of public officials and other
instruments and have conducted such other investigations of fact and law as we have deemed
necessary or advisable for purposes of this opinion, which is being furnished to you at the
express request of the Borrower and the Guarantor pursuant to Section 4.01(b) of the Credit
Agreement.

We have reviewed the Articles of Amendment and Restatement of the Articles of Incorporation,
as amended, of the Guarantor (the “Charter”), the Second Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited
Partnership, as amended, of the Borrower (“Operating Partnership Agreement”), and such other
documents, instruments, limited partnership, corporate, limited liability company and other records
as we consider necessary in connection with the opinions expressed below. As to any facts material
to our opinion, we have relied upon the representations and warranties of the Borrower and the
Guarantor made in the Credit Agreement and the Guaranty, and certificates of officers of the
Guarantor with respect to the Guarantor, the Borrower and the Subsidiaries, copies of which are
attached as Exhibit A hereto; and upon certificates of officials of governmental entities. We have
not independently established the facts so relied upon. Our opinions expressed in the first
sentence of Paragraph 1 below are based solely upon the certificates of government officials
provided to you pursuant to Section 4.01(c) of the Credit Agreement.

In rendering this opinion, we have assumed, without investigation, the authenticity of any
document or other instrument submitted to us as an original, the conformity to the originals of any
documents or other instruments submitted to us as a copy, the genuineness of all signatures on such
originals or copies, and the due authorization, execution and delivery by all parties other than
the Borrower and the Guarantor. We have made no review beyond a review of the documents and
certificates described herein, nor any independent investigation or inquiry beyond that described
herein.

 

 

 

Upon the basis of the foregoing and subject to the limitations, qualifications and
assumptions set forth herein, we are of the opinion that:

1. The Borrower is a limited partnership duly organized and validly existing under the laws of
the State of New York. The Guarantor is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good
standing under the laws of the State of Maryland. The QRS is a real estate trust duly formed,
validly existing and in good standing in under the laws of the State of Maryland. Each Subsidiary
listed on Schedule 3.02 of the Credit Agreement (attached hereto as Exhibit B) which is a
corporation is duly organized and existing under the laws of the States of Florida or New York, as
applicable. Each Subsidiary listed on Exhibit B which is a limited liability company or limited
partnership is duly organized, validly existing and, where such concept is applicable, in good
standing, under the laws of the States of Delaware, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York,
Pennsylvania or Virginia. Each Subsidiary listed on Exhibit B hereto which is a general partnership
exists as a partnership under the laws of the State of New York. Each of the Borrower and the
Guarantor: (a) has all requisite power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted as
described in the Guarantor’s 1934 Act Reports (as defined below), and (b) except where the failure
to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a
Material Adverse Effect, is qualified to do business in, and is in good standing in, every
jurisdiction where it owns properties or assets or where the conduct of its business makes such
qualification necessary.

2. The Transactions are within the Borrower’s partnership powers and have been duly authorized
by all necessary limited partnership and, if required, corporate action of the Guarantor as its
general partner, provided, however, no opinion is expressed herein as to any use of the proceeds of
Loans except as set forth in Paragraph 8 below. Each of the Credit Agreement and the Notes has been
duly executed and delivered by the Borrower to the Lenders and constitutes a legal, valid and
binding obligation of the Borrower, enforceable by the Lenders against the Borrower in accordance
with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other
laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and to general principles of equity, regardless of
whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

3. The execution, delivery and performance of the Guaranty are within the Guarantor’s powers
and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action. The Guaranty has been duly
executed and delivered by the Guarantor and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of
the Guarantor, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and to
general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at
law.

4. The execution, delivery and performance of the Credit Agreement, the Notes and the
Guaranty: (a) do not require any consent or approval of, registration or filing with, or any other
action by, any Governmental Authority on the part of the Borrower or the Guarantor, except such as
have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect and except filings providing public
notice of the entering into of the Credit Agreement, Note and Guaranty and filing of the Credit
Agreement the Notes and the Guaranty under applicable federal securities laws, (b) will not violate
any applicable law, rule or regulation or the Charter or by-laws of the Guarantor or the
certificate of limited partnership or Operating Partnership Agreement of the Borrower, or any order
of any Governmental Authority, (c) will not violate or result in a default under any indenture,
agreement or other instrument filed by Guarantor with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission
as an Exhibit to its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 or any Form 10-Q or Form 8-K
filed since that date (collectively, the “1934 Act Reports”) or their assets, or give rise to a
right thereunder to require any payment to be made by the Borrower, the Guarantor or any of the
Subsidiaries listed on Exhibit B pursuant to such indenture, agreement or other instrument, and (d)
will not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any asset of the Borrower, the
Guarantor or any of the Subsidiaries listed on Exhibit B as a result of any item referred to in
clauses (b) and (c) of this Paragraph 4; provided, however, no opinion is expressed herein as to
any use of the proceeds of Loans except as set forth in Paragraph 8 below.

5. To our knowledge, neither the Borrower nor the Guarantor is in violation of any law,
rules or regulation applicable to it or any order, writ, judgment, decree, determination or
award, the violations of which will have or is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse
Effect.

 

 

 

6. To our knowledge, there are no actions, suits or proceedings by or before any
arbitrator or Governmental Authority pending against or affecting the Borrower, the Guarantor
or any of the Subsidiaries listed on Exhibit B as to which there is a reasonable possibility of
an adverse determination and that, if adversely determined, could reasonably be expected
individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect, or that involve the Credit
Agreement or the Transactions.

7. Neither the Borrower nor any of the Subsidiaries listed on Exhibit B is an
“investment company” subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940.

8. The consummation of the Transactions on the date hereof including, without limitation, the
use of the proceeds of any Loan made to the Borrower pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement,
assuming, without investigation, that the Borrower will use such proceeds in accordance with the
terms of the Credit Agreement, will not violate Regulation T, U or X of the Board of Governors of
the Federal Reserve System.

The opinions as to the enforceability of the Credit Agreement, the Note and the Guaranty in
paragraphs 2 and 3 above are further qualified by the following:

(i) public policy limitations relating to concepts of materiality and principles
of reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing may require the Lenders to act
reasonably and in good faith; and

(ii) the limitation that certain of the provisions of, and some of the remedies
provided for in, the Agreements may be affected by, or may be unenforceable in whole
or in part by reason of certain laws and judicial decisions, but the application of
such laws and decisions would not materially interfere with the practical realization
of the principal legal benefits afforded thereby under New York law.

Certain opinions and other matters are expressed herein to “our knowledge” or works of
similar imports means that the opinion expressed herein to which such qualification relates is
based solely on matter within the actual knowledge of the lawyers within this firm actively
representing the Borrower and the Guarantor in connection with the Transactions described in the
Credit Agreement, derived from our representation of the Borrower and the Guarantor in other
matters as to which we have been engaged by them as counsel and the certificates of officers
described above, without any independent investigation.

We express no opinion herein regarding:

(i) with respect to the “time is of the essence” clause of the Note, and Section
12 of the Guaranty;

(ii) whether a court would give effect to the specification by the Required Lenders
of jurisdiction and venue outside courts located in New York or the waiver of
inconvenient forum or any claim that venue is improper or provisions relating to
subject matter jurisdiction of the courts set forth in any of the Agreements;

(iii) whether a court located outside the State of New York would give effect to
the choice of New York law;

(iv) any provisions in the Credit Agreement or Guaranty relating to or which
might be construed as changing the standard of proof or the party bearing the burden
of proof with respect to any claim;

(v) any provisions in the Credit Agreement or Guaranty relating to or which might
be construed as a waiver of counterclaim, a waiver of defenses, including suretyship
defenses, or a waiver of benefits of appraisal, valuation, stay, extension,
moratorium, redemption, statutes of limitation, or other nonwaivable benefits bestowed
by operation of law; and

 

 

 

(vi)

(vii) any provisions in the Credit Agreement or Guaranty which provide for
indemnification, contribution, or release, or provisions exculpating or exempting a
party from, or requiring indemnification or contribution for, liability, including
clauses relating to releases of unmatured claims, clauses purporting to waive
unmatured rights, and clauses similar in substance or nature to the foregoing clauses.

We are members of the bar of the State of New York and the foregoing opinion is limited to the
laws of the State of New York; the General Corporation Law, Partnership Law and Limited Liability
Company Law of the State of Maryland and the Partnership and Limited Liability Company Law of the
Commonwealth of Virginia set forth in standard compilations of corporation, limited liability
company and other business statutes set forth in the Wolters Kluwer Law and Business Corporation:
Statutes (Aspen Publishers) and the federal laws of the United States of America, each as in effect
on the date hereof and which in our experience are normally applicable to transactions comparable
to the Transactions.

Our opinions expressed herein are rendered as of the date hereof and do not address the
passage of time or other events subsequent to the date hereof. We disclaim any undertaking to
advise you of any change in law or fact which may affect the continued correctness of any
opinion as of a later date.

No opinion expressed herein may be referred to, cited or quoted in any financial
statement, prospectus, private placement memorandum or other similar document without our prior
written consent.

This opinion is rendered solely to you in connection with the above matter. This opinion may
not be relied upon by you for any other purpose or relied upon by any other Person (other than
your successors and assigns as Lenders and Persons that acquire participations in your Loans)
without our prior written consent.

Very truly yours,
