representations and warranties of the Borrower herein, each of the parties hereto
hereby agrees (A) that the Existing Loan Obligations shall be, from and following
the Restatement Date, continued and reconstituted as the Revolving Loans (as defined
below) and, pursuant to Section 2.1(b) Term Loans (as defined below), as applicable,
as set forth on Schedule 1, (B) that concurrently with the funding by BB&T
pursuant to Section 2.1(b), the Existing Lenders have assigned the preexisting loans
and commitments under the Existing Credit Agreement among themselves and to the
Lenders hereunder and hereby direct the Administrative Agent to re-allocate all such
pre-existing loans and commitments, such that, after giving effect to the
transactions contemplated hereby, the Revolving Loans and Revolving Commitments
shall be allocated among the Lenders as set forth in Schedule 1, and (C)
that the Lenders shall make additional advances in respect of the Revolving Loans on
and after the Restatement Date as set forth below.

 

30

 

(ii) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Lender agrees (A) that
all of the Existing Loan Obligations, Existing Swing Line Loans and Existing
Facility LC Obligations shall remain outstanding and shall be deemed to be
continuing Revolving Loans (subject to the reallocations and adjustments required
pursuant to clause (a)(i) above), Swing Line Loans or Facility LCs, as applicable,
under this Agreement, and (B) to make available a revolving credit facility
available as loans to the Borrower on a revolving basis and participate in Facility
LCs issued upon the request of the Borrower, at any time and from time to time
during the period from the Restatement Date to the Facility Termination Date, during
which period the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow in accordance with the
provisions hereof, provided that, after giving effect to the making of each such
Revolving Loan and the issuance of each such Facility LC, the Dollar amount of such
Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure shall not exceed its Revolving Commitment or its
Revolving Percentage of the Borrowing Base. Subject to the terms of this Agreement,
the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow the Revolving Loans at any time prior to
the Facility Termination Date. The Revolving Commitments hereunder shall expire on
the Facility Termination Date. The LC Issuer will issue Facility LCs hereunder on
the terms and conditions set forth in Section 2.18.

(b) Term Loans. On the Restatement Date, each Lender severally agrees, on the
terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to make a Term Loan to the Borrower in
Dollars in the amount of such Lender’s Term Loan Commitment. Each Lender’s Term Loan shall
be available to the Borrower on the Restatement Date and, once repaid, may not be
reborrowed; provided however, that the parties agree that BB&T shall fund an
amount equal to the amount set forth in the Restatement Date Funds Flow on the Restatement
Date and that upon the funding of such amount, and the reallocation of the Revolving Loans
pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(i), U.S. Bank and BB&T will be deemed to have funded its
respective Term Loan Commitments in full. The parties agree that after giving effect to the
reallocation of the Revolving Loans, as set forth in Section 2.1(a)(i) and the funding of
Term Loans by U.S. Bank and BB&T under this Section 2.1(b), BB&T and U.S. Bank will be
deemed to have funded Term Loans in the amounts set forth on Schedule 1. All
proceeds of the Term Loans not used in connection with the Bruenger Acquisition and related
fees and expenses for the Bruenger Acquisition and this Agreement must be applied to reduce
the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loans.

2.2. Required Payments; Termination. 

(a) Aggregate Commitment. If at any time the Dollar amount of the Aggregate
Revolving Credit Exposure exceeds the lesser of the Aggregate Revolving Commitment or the
Borrowing Base, the Borrower shall immediately make a payment on Revolving Loans, Swing Line
Loans, or Reimbursement Obligations sufficient to eliminate such excess.

(b) Term Loans. The Borrower shall make quarterly principal payments in the
amount of $1,875,000 each for application to the Term Loans on the last Business
Day of each fiscal quarter, commencing on September 30, 2011, with all remaining
outstanding Term Loans to be paid in full on the Facility Termination Date.

 

31

 

(c) Facility Termination Date. The Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure and
all other unpaid Obligations shall be paid in full by the Borrower (or, in the case of LC
Obligations in respect of Facility LCs with an expiry date after the Facility Termination
Date, cash collateralized in accordance with Section 2.18.1 and 2.18.11) on the Facility
Termination Date.

2.3. Ratable Loans; Types of Advances. Each Advance hereunder (other than any Swing Line Loan) shall consist of (a) Revolving
Loans made from the several Lenders ratably according to their Revolving Percentages or (b) Term
Loans made from the Lenders ratably according to their Term Loan Commitment. The Advances may be
Base Rate Advances or Eurocurrency Advances, or a combination thereof, selected by the Borrower in
accordance with Sections 2.8 and 2.9, or Swing Line Loans selected by the Borrower in accordance
with Section 2.22.

2.4. Commitment Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender
according to its Revolving Percentage a commitment fee at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable
Fee Rate on the average daily Available Aggregate Revolving Commitment from the date hereof to and
including the Facility Termination Date, payable on the last day of each fiscal quarter and on the
Facility Termination Date. Swing Line Loans shall not count as usage of the Aggregate Revolving
Commitment for the purpose of calculating the commitment fee due hereunder with respect to any
Lender other than the Swing Line Lender, except to the extent another Lender’s participation in
such Swing Line Loans has been funded by such Lender.

2.5. Minimum Amount of Each Advance. Each Eurocurrency Advance shall be in the minimum amount of $500,000, or if more, in
integral multiples of $100,000 above $500,000 and each Base Rate Advance (other than an Advance to
repay Swing Line Loans) shall be in the minimum amount of $500,000, or if more, in integral
multiples of $100,000 above $500,000, provided, however, that any Base Rate Advance in respect of a
Revolving Loan may be in the amount of the Available Aggregate Revolving Commitment or, if less,
the unused portion of the Borrowing Base.

2.6. Reductions in Aggregate Revolving Commitment; Optional Principal Payments. The Borrower may permanently reduce the Aggregate Revolving Commitment in whole, or in part
ratably among the Lenders in the minimum amount of $500,000, upon at least three Business Days’
written notice to the Administrative Agent, which notice shall specify the amount of any such
reduction, provided, however, that the amount of the Aggregate Revolving Commitment may not be
reduced below the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure. All accrued commitment fees shall be
payable on the effective date of any termination of the obligations of the Lenders to make Credit
Extensions hereunder. The Borrower may from time to time pay, without penalty or premium, all
outstanding Base Rate Advances (other than Swing Line Loans),
or, in a minimum aggregate amount of $500,000, or if more, in integral multiples of $100,000
above $500,000, any portion of the outstanding Base Rate Advances (other than Swing Line Loans)
upon same day notice to the Administrative Agent. The Borrower may at any time pay, without
penalty or premium, all outstanding Swing Line Loans, or any portion of the outstanding Swing Line
Loans, with notice to the Administrative Agent and the Swing Line Lender by 11:00 a.m. (Minneapolis
time) on the date of repayment. The Borrower may from time to time pay, subject to the payment of
any funding indemnification amounts required by Section 3.4 but without penalty or premium, all
outstanding Eurocurrency Advances, or, in a minimum aggregate amount of $500,000 or if more, in
integral multiples of $100,000 above $500,000, any portion of the outstanding Eurocurrency Advances
upon three Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent.

 

32

 

2.7. Method of Selecting Types and Interest Periods for New Advances. The Borrower shall select the Type of Advance and, in the case of each Eurocurrency
Advance, the Interest Period applicable thereto from time to time. The Borrower shall give the
Administrative Agent irrevocable notice in the form of Exhibit C (a “Borrowing Notice”) not later
than 12:00 p.m. (Minneapolis time) on the Borrowing Date of each Base Rate Advance (other than a
Swing Line Loan) and three Business Days before the Borrowing Date for each Eurocurrency Advance,
specifying:

(a) the Borrowing Date, which shall be a Business Day, of such Advance,

(b) the aggregate amount of such Advance,

(c) the Type of Advance selected, and

(d) in the case of each Eurocurrency Advance, the Interest Period applicable thereto;

Not later than 2:00 p.m. (Minneapolis time) on each Borrowing Date, each Lender shall make
available its Loan or Loans in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent at its
address specified pursuant to Article XIII. The Administrative Agent will make the funds so
received from the Lenders available to the Borrower pursuant to the Borrowing Notice.

2.8. Conversion and Continuation of Outstanding Advances. Base Rate Advances (other than Swing Line Loans) shall continue as Base Rate Advances
unless and until such Base Rate Advances are converted into Eurocurrency Advances pursuant to this
Section or are repaid in accordance with Section 2.6. Each Eurocurrency Advance denominated in
Dollars shall continue as a Eurocurrency Advance until the end of the then applicable Interest
Period therefor, at which time such Eurocurrency Advance shall be automatically converted into a
Base Rate Advance unless (x) such Eurocurrency Advance is or was repaid in accordance with Section
2.6 or (y) the Borrower has given the Administrative Agent a Conversion/Continuation Notice (as
defined below) requesting that, at the end of such Interest Period, such Eurocurrency Advance
continue as a Eurocurrency Advance for the same or another Interest Period. Subject to the terms
of Section 2.5, the Borrower may elect from time to time to convert all or any part of a Base Rate
Advance (other than a Swing Line Loan) into a
Eurocurrency Advance. The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice (a
“Conversion/Continuation Notice”) of each conversion of a Base Rate Advance into a Eurocurrency
Advance, conversion of a Eurocurrency Advance to a Base Rate Advance, or continuation of a
Eurocurrency Advance not later than 12:00 p.m. (Minneapolis time) at least three Business Days
prior to the date of the requested conversion or continuation, specifying:

(a) the requested date, which shall be a Business Day, of such conversion or
continuation,

(b) the amount and Type of the Advance that is to be converted or continued, and

(c) the amount of such Advance that is to be converted into or continued as a
Eurocurrency Advance and the duration of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

 

33

 

2.9. Interest Rates. Each Base Rate Advance (other than a Swing Line Loan) shall bear interest on the
outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day from and including the date such Advance is made
or is automatically converted from a Eurocurrency Advance into a Base Rate Advance pursuant to
Section 2.8, to but excluding the date it becomes due or is converted into a Eurocurrency Advance
pursuant to Section 2.8, at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate for such day. Changes in the
rate of interest on the portion of any Advance maintained as a Base Rate Advance will take effect
simultaneously with each change in the Base Rate. Each Swing Line Loan shall bear interest on the
outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day from and including the day such Swing Line Loan
is made to but excluding the date it is paid, at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate for such
day or another rate if agreed to by the Borrower and the Swing Line Lender. Each Eurocurrency
Advance shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from and including the
first day of the Interest Period applicable thereto to (but not including) the last day of such
Interest Period at the interest rate reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent as
applicable to such Eurocurrency Advance based upon the Borrower’s selections under Sections 2.7 and
2.8 and otherwise in accordance with the terms hereof. No Interest Period may end after the
Facility Termination Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, without the
prior written consent of the Required Lenders, the Borrower shall not maintain more than six
Eurocurrency Advances at any time.

2.10. Rates Applicable After Event of Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 2.7, 2.8, or 2.9, during the
continuance of a Default or Event of Default the Required Lenders may, at their option, by notice
to the Borrower (which notice may be revoked at the option of the Required Lenders notwithstanding
any provision of Section 8.2 requiring unanimous consent of the Lenders to changes in interest
rates), declare that no Advance may be made as, converted into or continued as a Eurocurrency
Advance. During the continuance of an Event of Default the Required Lenders may, at their option,
by notice to the Borrower (which notice may be revoked at the option of all of the Lenders),
declare that (i) each Eurocurrency Advance shall bear interest for the remainder of the applicable
Interest Period at the rate otherwise applicable to such Interest
Period plus 2% per annum, (ii) each Base Rate Advance shall bear interest at a rate per annum
equal to the Base Rate in effect from time to time plus 2% per annum, and (iii) the LC Fee shall be
increased by 2% per annum, provided that, during the continuance of an Event of Default under
Section 7.6 or 7.7, the interest rates set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) above and the increase in
the LC Fee set forth in clause (iii) above shall be applicable to all Credit Extensions without any
election or action on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender. After an Event of
Default has been cured or waived, the interest rate applicable to advances and the LC Fee shall
revert to the rates applicable prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default.

 

34

 

2.11. Method of Payment. Each Advance shall be repaid and each payment of interest thereon shall be paid in Dollars.
All payments of the Obligations hereunder shall be made, without setoff, deduction or
counterclaim, in immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative
Agent’s address specified pursuant to Article XIII, or at any other Lending Installation of the
Administrative Agent specified in writing by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower (which
written notice shall be delivered to Borrower at least one Business Day prior to the due date of
the applicable payment) by 12:00 p.m. (Minneapolis time) on the date when due and shall (except (i)
with respect to payments of Swing Line Loans, (ii) in the case of Reimbursement Obligations for
which the LC Issuer has not been fully indemnified by the Lenders or (iii) as otherwise
specifically required hereunder) be applied ratably by the Administrative Agent among the Lenders.
Each payment delivered to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Lender shall be delivered
promptly by the Administrative Agent to such Lender in the same type of funds that the
Administrative Agent received at its address specified pursuant to Article XIII or at any Lending
Installation specified in a notice received by the Administrative Agent from such Lender. The
Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to charge the account of the Borrower maintained with
U.S. Bank for each payment of principal, interest, Reimbursement Obligations and fees as it becomes
due hereunder. Each reference to the Administrative Agent in this Section shall also be deemed to
refer, and shall apply equally, to the LC Issuer, in the case of payments required to be made by
the Borrower to the LC Issuer pursuant to Section 2.18.6.

2.12. Evidence of Indebtedness. 

(a) 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 from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest
payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall also maintain accounts in which it will record (i)
the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Type thereof and the Interest Period with
respect 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, (iii) the original stated amount
of each Facility LC and the amount of LC Obligations outstanding at any time and (iv) the
amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrower and each
Lender’s share thereof.

(c) The entries in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraphs (a) and (b) above
shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the Obligations therein
recorded; provided, however, that the failure of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to
maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of
the Borrower to repay the Obligations in accordance with their terms.

 

35

 

(d) Any Lender may request that its Revolving Loans be evidenced by a promissory note
substantially in the form of Exhibit D, or that its Term Loan be evidenced by a promissory
note substantially in the form of Exhibit E in the case of the Swing Line Lender, a
promissory note substantially in the form Exhibit F (each a “Note”). In such event, the
Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender such Notes payable to the order
of such Lender. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such Note and interest thereon shall at
all times (prior to any assignment pursuant to Section 12.3) be represented by one or more
Notes payable to the order of the payee named therein, except to the extent that any such
Lender subsequently returns any such Note for cancellation and requests that such Loans once
again be evidenced as described in clauses (b)(i) and (ii) above.

2.13. Telephonic Notices. The Borrower hereby authorizes the Lenders and the Administrative Agent to extend, convert
or continue Advances, effect selections of Types of Advances and transfer funds based on telephonic
notices made by any person or persons the Administrative Agent or any Lender in good faith believes
to be acting on behalf of the Borrower, it being understood that the foregoing authorization is
specifically intended to allow Borrowing Notices and Conversion/Continuation Notices to be given
telephonically. The Borrower agrees to deliver promptly to the Administrative Agent a written
confirmation (which may be an e-mail confirmation) of each telephonic notice authenticated by an
Authorized Officer. If the written confirmation differs in any material respect from the action
taken by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, the records of the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders shall govern absent manifest error.

2.14. Interest Payment Dates; Interest and Fee Basis. Interest accrued on each Base Rate Advance shall be payable in arrears on the first
Business Day of each month, commencing with the first such date to occur after the date hereof, and
at maturity. Interest accrued on each Eurocurrency Advance shall be payable on the last day of its
applicable Interest Period, on any date on which the Eurocurrency Advance is prepaid, whether by
acceleration or otherwise, and at maturity. Interest accrued on each Eurocurrency Advance having
an Interest Period longer than three months shall also be payable on the last day of each
three-month interval during such Interest Period. Interest accrued on Base Rate Advances shall be
calculated based on the actual number of days elapsed on the basis of a 365/366-day year. Interest
on Eurocurrency Advances and fees shall be calculated for actual days elapsed on the basis of a
360-day year. Interest shall be payable for the day an Advance is made but not for the day of any
payment on the amount paid if payment is received prior to noon (local time) at the place of
payment. If any payment of principal of or interest on an Advance becomes due on a day that is not
a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next
succeeding Business Day; provided that if the next succeeding Business Day is in the next
calendar month, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day.

2.15. Notification of Advances, Interest Rates, Prepayments and Commitment Reductions. Promptly after receipt thereof, the Administrative Agent will notify each Lender of the
contents of each Aggregate Commitment reduction notice, Borrowing Notice, Swing Line Borrowing
Notice, Conversion/Continuation Notice and repayment notice. Promptly after notice from the LC
Issuer, the Administrative Agent will notify each Lender of the contents of each request for
issuance of a Facility LC hereunder. The Administrative Agent will notify each Lender of the
interest rate applicable to each Eurocurrency Advance promptly upon determination of such interest
rate and will give each Lender prompt notice of each change in the Base Rate.

 

36

 

2.16. Lending Installations. Each Lender may book its Advances and its participation in any LC Obligations, and the LC
Issuer may book the Facility LCs, at any Lending Installation selected by such Lender or the LC
Issuer, as the case may be, and any Lender or the LC Issuer may change its Lending Installation
from time to time. All terms of this Agreement shall apply to any such Lending Installation, and
the Loans, Facility LCs, participations in LC Obligations and any Notes issued hereunder shall be
deemed held by each Lender or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, for the benefit of any such
Lending Installation. Each Lender and the LC Issuer may, by written notice to the Administrative
Agent and the Borrower in accordance with Article XIII, designate replacement or additional Lending
Installations through which it will make Loans or issue Facility LCs and for whose account Loan
payments or payments with respect to Facility LCs are to be made.

2.17. Non-Receipt of Funds by the Administrative Agent. Unless the Borrower or a Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Administrative Agent,
prior to the date on which it is scheduled to make payment to the Administrative Agent of (i) in
the case of a Lender, the proceeds of a Loan or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, a payment of
principal, interest or fees to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, that it
does not intend to make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such payment has
been made. The Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make the amount of such
payment available to the intended recipient in reliance upon such assumption. If such Lender or
the Borrower, as the case may be, has not in fact made such payment to the Administrative Agent,
the recipient of such payment shall, on demand by the Administrative Agent, repay to the
Administrative Agent the amount so made available together with interest thereon in respect of each
day during the period from and including the date such amount was so made available by the
Administrative Agent until the date the Administrative Agent recovers such amount at a rate per
annum equal to (x) in the case of payment by a Lender, the Federal Funds Effective Rate for such
day for the first three days and, thereafter, the interest rate applicable to the relevant Loan or
(y) in the case of payment by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to the relevant Loan.

2.18. Facility LCs.

2.18.1 Issuance. The LC Issuer hereby agrees, on the terms and conditions set
forth in this Agreement, to issue (or continue) standby and commercial Letters of Credit
denominated in Dollars (including without limitation any and all Existing Facility LCs
issued under the Existing Credit Agreement, each, a “Facility LC”) and to renew, extend,
increase, decrease or otherwise modify each Facility LC (“Modify,” and each such action a
“Modification”), from time to time from and including the date of this Agreement and prior
to the Facility Termination Date upon the request of the Borrower; provided that immediately
after each such Facility LC is issued or Modified, (i) the aggregate Dollar amount of the
outstanding LC Obligations shall not exceed $10,000,000 and (ii) the Aggregate Revolving
Credit Exposure shall not exceed the lesser of the Aggregate Revolving Commitment and the
Borrowing Base. No Facility LC shall have an expiry date later than the earlier of (x) the
fifth Business Day prior to the Facility Termination Date and (y) one year after its
issuance; provided, however, that the expiry date of a Facility LC may be up to one year
later than the fifth Business Day prior to the Facility Termination Date if the Borrower has
posted on or before the fifth Business Day prior to the Facility Termination Date cash
collateral in the Facility LC Collateral Account on terms satisfactory to the Administrative
Agent in an amount equal to 105% of the LC Obligations with respect to such Facility LC. The
Borrower, the Lenders and the LC Issuer each hereby agree and acknowledge that the Existing
GTS LCs and the Existing Facility LCs shall be deemed to be Letters of Credit issued under,
and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

 

37

 

2.18.2 Participations. Upon the issuance or Modification by the LC Issuer of a
Facility LC in accordance with this Section, the LC Issuer shall be deemed, without further
action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably sold to each Lender, and
each Lender shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have
unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from the LC Issuer, a participation in such
Facility LC (and each Modification thereof) and the related LC Obligations in proportion to
its Revolving Percentage.

2.18.3 Notice. Subject to Section 2.18.1, the Borrower shall give the
Administrative Agent notice prior to 12:00 p.m. (Minneapolis time) at least three Business
Days prior to the proposed date of issuance or Modification of each Facility LC, specifying
the beneficiary, the proposed date of issuance (or Modification) and the expiry date of such
Facility LC, and describing the proposed terms of such Facility LC and the nature of the
transactions proposed to be supported thereby. Upon receipt of such notice, the
Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the LC Issuer and each Lender of the contents
thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s participation in such proposed Facility LC. The
issuance or Modification by the LC Issuer of any Facility LC shall, in addition to the
conditions precedent set forth in Article IV, be subject to the conditions precedent that
such Facility LC shall be satisfactory to the LC Issuer and that the Borrower shall have
executed and delivered such application agreement and/or such other instruments and
agreements relating to such Facility LC as the LC Issuer shall have reasonably requested
(each, a “Facility LC Application”). The LC Issuer shall have no independent duty to
ascertain whether the conditions set forth in Article IV have been
satisfied; provided, however, that the LC Issuer shall not issue a Facility LC if, on
or before the proposed date of issuance, the LC Issuer has received notice from the
Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders that any such condition has not been satisfied
or waived. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms
of any Facility LC Application, the terms of this Agreement shall control.

2.18.4 LC Fees.

(a) The Borrower shall pay to the LC Issuer with respect to each Facility LC, a
nonrefundable fronting fee in an amount equal to one eighth percent (0.125%) per annum of
the face amount of each such Facility LC (the “LC Fronting Fees”), and such LC Fronting Fees
shall be due and payable on the date of the issuance (or renewal, if applicable) of each
Facility LC.

 

38

 

(b) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders
ratably in accordance with their respective Revolving Percentage, with respect to each
Facility LC, a letter of credit fee at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Margin for
Eurocurrency Loans in effect from time to time on the original face amount of the Facility
LC for the period from the date of issuance to the scheduled expiration date of such
Facility LC, such fee to be payable in arrears on the last day of each fiscal quarter (the
“LC Fee”). The Borrower shall also pay to the LC Issuer for its own account on demand all
amendment, drawing and other fees regularly charged by the LC Issuer to its letter of credit
customers and all out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by the LC Issuer in connection
with the issuance, Modification, administration or payment of any Facility LC.

2.18.5 Administration; Reimbursement by Lenders. Upon receipt from the
beneficiary of any Facility LC of any demand for payment under such Facility LC, the LC
Issuer shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall promptly
notify the Borrower and each other Lender as to the amount to be paid by the LC Issuer as a
result of such demand and the proposed payment date (the “LC Payment Date”). The
responsibility of the LC Issuer to the Borrower and each Lender shall be only to determine
that the documents (including each demand for payment) delivered under each Facility LC in
connection with such presentment are in conformity in all material respects with such
Facility LC. The LC Issuer shall endeavor to exercise the same care in the issuance and
administration of the Facility LCs as it does with respect to letters of credit in which no
participations are granted, it being understood that in the absence of any gross negligence
or willful misconduct by the LC Issuer, each Lender shall be unconditionally and irrevocably
liable, without regard to any Event of Default or any condition precedent whatsoever, to
reimburse the LC Issuer on demand for (i) such Lender’s Revolving Percentage of the amount
of each payment made by the LC Issuer under each Facility LC to the extent such amount is
not reimbursed by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.18.6 below and there are not funds
available in the Facility LC Collateral Account to cover the same, plus (ii) interest on the
foregoing amount to be reimbursed by such Lender, for each day from the date of the LC
Issuer’s demand for such reimbursement (or, if such demand is made after 12:00 p.m.
(Minneapolis time) on such date, from the next succeeding Business Day) to the date on which
such Lender pays
the amount to be reimbursed by it, at a rate of interest per annum equal to the Federal
Funds Effective Rate for the first three days and, thereafter, at a rate of interest equal
to the rate applicable to Base Rate Advances.

 

39

 

2.18.6 Reimbursement by Borrower. The Borrower shall be irrevocably and
unconditionally obligated to reimburse the LC Issuer on or before the applicable LC
Payment Date for any amounts required to be paid by the LC Issuer upon any drawing under any
Facility LC, without presentment, demand, protest or other formalities of any kind; provided
that neither the Borrower nor any Lender shall hereby be precluded from asserting any claim
for direct (but not consequential) damages suffered by the Borrower or such Lender to the
extent, but only to the extent, caused by (i) the willful misconduct or gross negligence of
the LC Issuer in determining whether a request presented under any Facility LC complied with
the terms of such Facility LC or (ii) the LC Issuer’s failure to pay under any Facility LC
issued by it after the presentation to it of a request complying with the terms and
conditions of such Facility LC. All such amounts paid by the LC Issuer and remaining unpaid
by the Borrower shall bear interest, payable on demand, for each day until paid at a rate
per annum equal to (x) the rate applicable to Base Rate Advances for such day if such day
falls on or before the applicable LC Payment Date and (y) the sum of 2% plus the rate
applicable to Base Rate Advances for such day if such day falls after such LC Payment Date.
The LC Issuer will pay to each Lender ratably in accordance with its Revolving Percentage
all amounts received by it from the Borrower for application in payment, in whole or in
part, of the Reimbursement Obligation in respect of any Facility LC issued by the LC Issuer,
but only to the extent such Lender has made payment to the LC Issuer in respect of such
Facility LC pursuant to Section 2.18.5. Subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement (including without limitation the submission of a Borrowing Notice in compliance
with Section 2.7 and the satisfaction of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in
Article IV), the Borrower may request an Advance hereunder for the purpose of satisfying any
Reimbursement Obligation.

2.18.7 Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s obligations under this Section
shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any
setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment that the Borrower may have or have had against
the LC Issuer, any Lender or any beneficiary of a Facility LC. The Borrower further agrees
with the LC Issuer and the Lenders that the LC Issuer and the Lenders shall not be
responsible for, and the Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligation in respect of any Facility LC
shall not be affected by, among other things, the validity or genuineness of documents or of
any endorsements thereon, even if such documents in fact prove to be in any or all respects
invalid, fraudulent or forged, or any dispute between or among the Borrower, any of its
Affiliates, the beneficiary of any Facility LC or any financing institution or other party
to whom any Facility LC may be transferred or any claims or defenses whatsoever of the
Borrower or of any of its Affiliates against the beneficiary of any Facility LC or any such
transferee. The LC Issuer shall not be liable for any error, omission, interruption or
delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted,
in connection with any Facility LC except to the extent determined in a final
non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to be attributable to the
gross negligence or willful misconduct of the LC Issuer. The
Borrower agrees that any action taken or omitted by the LC Issuer or any Lender under
or in connection with each Facility LC and the related drafts and documents, if done without
gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall be binding upon the Borrower and shall not put
the LC Issuer or any Lender under any liability to the Borrower. Nothing in this Section is
intended to limit the right of the Borrower to make a claim against the LC Issuer for
damages as contemplated by the proviso to the first sentence of Section 2.18.6.

2.18.8 Actions of LC Issuer. The LC Issuer shall be entitled to rely, and
shall be fully protected in relying, upon any Facility LC, draft, writing, resolution,
notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, telecopy, telex,
teletype or electronic mail message, statement, order or other document it reasonably
believes to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper
Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel, independent accountants
and other experts selected by the LC Issuer. The LC Issuer shall be fully justified in
failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement unless it first receives such
advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it reasonably deems appropriate or it is
first indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all
liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take
any such action. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, the LC Issuer shall in
all cases be fully protected by the Lenders in acting, or in refraining from acting, under
this Agreement in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders, and such request and
any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon the Lenders and
any future holders of a participation in any Facility LC.

2.18.9 Indemnification. The Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless each Lender, the LC Issuer and the Administrative Agent, and their respective
directors, officers, agents and employees, from and against any and all claims and damages,
losses, liabilities, costs or expenses that such Lender, the LC Issuer or the Administrative
Agent may incur (or that may be claimed against such Lender, the LC Issuer or the
Administrative Agent by any Person whatsoever) by reason of or in connection with the
issuance, execution and delivery or transfer of or payment or failure to pay under any
Facility LC or any actual or proposed use of any Facility LC, including, without limitation,
any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses that the LC Issuer may incur by
reason of or in connection with (i) the failure of any other Lender to fulfill or comply
with its obligations to the LC Issuer hereunder (but nothing herein shall affect any rights
the Borrower may have against any defaulting Lender) or (ii) by reason of or on account of
the LC Issuer issuing any Facility LC that specifies that the term “Beneficiary” included
therein includes any successor by operation of law of the named Beneficiary, but which
Facility LC does not require that any drawing by any such successor Beneficiary be
accompanied by a copy of a legal document, satisfactory to the LC Issuer, evidencing the
appointment of such successor Beneficiary; provided that the Borrower shall not be required
to indemnify any Lender, the LC Issuer or the Administrative Agent for any claims, damages,
losses, liabilities, costs or expenses to the extent, but only to the extent, caused by (x)
the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the LC Issuer in determining whether a request
presented under any Facility LC complied with the terms of such Facility LC or (y) the LC
Issuer’s failure to pay under any Facility LC after the presentation to it of a request
complying with the terms and conditions of
such Facility LC. Nothing in this Section is intended to limit the obligations of the
Borrower under any other provision of this Agreement.

2.18.10 Lenders’ Indemnification. Each Lender shall, in accordance with its
Revolving Percentage, indemnify the LC Issuer, its affiliates and their respective
directors, officers, agents and employees (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower)
against any cost, expense (including reasonable counsel fees and disbursements), claim,
demand, action, loss or liability (except such as result from such indemnitees’ gross
negligence or willful misconduct or the LC Issuer’s failure to pay under any Facility LC
after the presentation to it of a request complying with the terms and conditions of the
Facility LC) that such indemnitees may suffer or incur in connection with this Section or
any action taken or omitted by such indemnitees hereunder.

 

41

 

2.18.11 Facility LC Collateral Account. Following the occurrence of any of the
events described in Sections 2.18.1, 2.21 or 8.1 with respect to a requirement of a Person
to post cash collateral, the Borrower will, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or
the Required Lenders and until the final expiration date of any Facility LC and thereafter
as long as any amount is payable to the LC Issuer or the Lenders in respect of any Facility
LC, maintain a special collateral account pursuant to arrangements satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent (the “Facility LC Collateral Account”) in the name of such Borrower but
under the sole dominion and control of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the
Lenders in which such Borrower shall have no interest other than as set forth in Section
8.1. The Borrower hereby pledges, assigns and grants to the Administrative Agent, on behalf
of and for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the LC Issuer, a security interest in all
of the Borrower’s right, title and interest in and to all funds that are from time to time
on deposit in the Facility LC Collateral Account to secure the prompt and complete payment
and performance of the Obligations. The Administrative Agent will invest any funds on
deposit from time to time in the Facility LC Collateral Account in certificates of deposit
of U.S. Bank having a maturity not exceeding 30 days. Nothing in this Section shall either
obligate the Administrative Agent to require the Borrower to deposit any funds in the
Facility LC Collateral Account or limit the right of the Administrative Agent to release any
funds held in the Facility LC Collateral Account in each case other than as required by
Section 8.1.

2.18.12 Rights as a Lender. In its capacity as a Lender, the LC Issuer shall
have the same rights and obligations as any other Lender.

2.19. Replacement of Lender. If the Borrower is required pursuant to Section 3.1, 3.2 or 3.5 to make any additional
payment to any Lender, if any Lender’s obligation to make or continue, or to convert Base Rate
Advances into, Eurocurrency Advances is suspended pursuant to Section 3.2(b) or 3.3, or if any
Lender defaults in its obligation to make a Loan, reimburse the LC Issuer pursuant to Section
2.18.5 or the Swing Line Lender pursuant to Section 2.22(d), declines to approve an amendment or
waiver approved by the Required Lenders but that otherwise requires unanimous consent of the
Lenders, or otherwise becomes a Defaulting Lender (any Lender so affected an “Affected Lender”),
the Borrower may elect, upon such default or declination or if such amounts continue
to be charged or such suspension is still effective, to replace such Affected Lender as a
Lender party to this Agreement; provided, that the Borrower shall have elected to replace such
Lender within 90 days of the date of the occurrence of the event or circumstance that gives rise to
the right of the Borrower to elect to replace such Lender; provided further, that no Default or
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, and
provided further that, concurrently with such replacement, (i) another bank or other entity that is
reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall agree, as of such date,
to purchase for cash the Advances and other Obligations due to the Affected Lender pursuant to an
assignment substantially in the form of Exhibit B, to become a Lender for all purposes under this
Agreement, to assume all obligations of the Affected Lender to be terminated as of such date and to
comply with the requirements of Section 12.3 applicable to assignments, and (ii) the Borrower shall
pay to such Affected Lender in same day funds on the day of such replacement (A) all interest, fees
and other amounts then accrued but unpaid to such Affected Lender by the Borrower hereunder to and
including the date of termination, including without limitation payments due to such Affected
Lender under Sections 3.1, 3.2 and 3.5, and (B) an amount, if any, equal to the payment that would
have been due to such Lender on the day of such replacement under Section 3.4 had the Loans of such
Affected Lender been prepaid on such date rather than sold to the replacement Lender.

 

42

 

2.20. Limitation of Interest. The Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders intend to strictly comply with all
applicable laws, including applicable usury laws. Accordingly, the provisions of this Section
shall govern and control over every other provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document
that conflicts or is inconsistent with this Section, even if such provision declares that it
controls. As used in this Section, the term “interest” includes the aggregate of all charges,
fees, benefits or other compensation that constitute interest under applicable law, provided that,
to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, (a) any non-principal payment shall be
characterized as an expense or as compensation for something other than the use, forbearance or
detention of money and not as interest, and (b) all interest at any time contracted for, reserved,
charged or received shall be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread, in equal parts during the
full term of the Obligations. In no event shall the Borrower or any other Person be obligated to
pay, or any Lender have any right or privilege to reserve, receive or retain, (x) any interest in
excess of the maximum amount of nonusurious interest permitted under the applicable laws (if any)
of the United States or of any applicable state, or (y) total interest in excess of the amount such
Lender could lawfully have contracted for, reserved, received, retained or charged had the interest
been calculated for the full term of the Obligations at the Highest Lawful Rate. On each day, if
any, that the interest rate (the “Stated Rate”) called for under this Agreement or any other Loan
Document exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the rate at which interest shall accrue shall
automatically be fixed by operation of this sentence at the Highest Lawful Rate for that day, and
shall remain fixed at the Highest Lawful Rate for each day thereafter until the total amount of
interest accrued equals the total amount of interest that would have accrued if there were no such
ceiling rate as is imposed by this sentence. Thereafter, interest shall accrue at the Stated Rate
unless and until the Stated Rate again exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, at which time the
provisions of the immediately preceding sentence shall again automatically operate to limit the
interest accrual rate. The daily interest rates to be used in calculating interest at the Highest
Lawful Rate shall be determined by dividing the applicable Highest Lawful Rate per annum by
the number of days in the calendar year for which such calculation is being made. None of the
terms and provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that directly or indirectly
relate to interest shall ever be construed without reference to this Section, or be construed to
create a contract to pay for the use, forbearance or detention of money at an interest rate in
excess of the Highest Lawful Rate. If the term of any Obligation is shortened by reason of
acceleration of maturity as a result of any Event of Default or by any other cause, or by reason of
any required or permitted prepayment, and if for that (or any other) reason any Lender at any time,
including but not limited to the stated maturity, is owed or receives (and/or has received)
interest in excess of interest calculated at the Highest Lawful Rate, then and in any such event
all of any such excess interest shall be canceled automatically as of the date of such
acceleration, prepayment or other event, and, if such excess interest has been paid to such Lender,
it shall be credited pro tanto against the then-outstanding principal balance of the Borrower’s
obligations to such Lender, effective as of the date or dates when the event occurs that causes it
to be excess interest, until such excess is exhausted or all of such principal has been fully paid
and satisfied, whichever occurs first, and any remaining balance of such excess shall be promptly
refunded to its payor.

 

43

 

2.21. Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a
Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a
Defaulting Lender:

(a) fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Commitment of such
Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.4;

(b) the Commitment and Outstanding Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not
be included in determining whether all Lenders or the Required Lenders have taken or may
take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to
Section 8.2), provided that any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of
all Lenders or each affected Lender that affects such Defaulting Lender differently than
other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender;

(c) if any Swing Line Loans are outstanding or LC Obligations exist at the time a
Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:

(i) such Defaulting Lender shall, within one Business Day following notice by
the Administrative Agent, cash collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving
Percentage of the LC Obligations by depositing cash collateral in an amount equal to
such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Percentage of the LC Obligations in the Facility
LC Collateral Account. Such amounts shall be held in the Facility LC Collateral
Account until the earliest of (x) the time the Defaulting Lender is no longer a
Defaulting Lender as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent, upon which
such amounts shall be transferred to such Defaulting Lender (without interest), (y)
the expiration of the applicable LC Obligations by the terms of the applicable
Facility LC, upon which such amounts
shall be transferred to such Defaulting Lender (without interest), and (z) the
failure of the Borrower to reimburse the LC Issuer on or before the applicable LC
Payment Date, upon which such amounts shall be paid to the Administrative Agent and
applied to such Defaulting Lender’s reimbursement obligations to the LC Issuer.

(ii) if such Defaulting Lender fails to deposit cash collateral in the amounts
required pursuant to clause (i) above, then all or any part of the unfunded
participations in and commitments with respect to such Swing Line Loans or LC
Obligations shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with
their respective Revolving Percentages but only to the extent (x) the sum of all
non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Credit Exposure plus such Defaulting Lender’s
Revolving Loans and participations in and commitments with respect to Revolving
Loans, Swing Line Loans and Facility LCs does not exceed the total of all
non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitments and (y) the conditions set forth in
Article IV are satisfied at such time; provided, that the LC Fees
payable to the Lenders shall be determined taking into account of such reallocation.

 

44

 

(iii) if such Defaulting Lender has not cash collateralized its Revolving
Percentage of the outstanding LC Obligations and if the reallocation described in
clause (ii) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall,
within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent, (x) first,
prepay a portion of such outstanding Swing Line Loans in an amount equal to such
Defaulting Lender’s Swing Line Exposure and (y) second, cash collateralize such
Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Percentage of the LC Obligations in accordance with
the procedures set forth in Section 8.1 for so long as such Facility LC Exposure is
outstanding;

(iv) if the Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting
Lender’s Facility LC Exposure pursuant to clause (iii) above, the Borrower shall not
be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.18.4
with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Facility LC Exposure during the period such
Defaulting Lender’s Facility LC Exposure is cash collateralized by the Borrower; and

(v) if any Defaulting Lender’s Facility LC Exposure is not cash collateralized
pursuant to clause (i) or (iii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or
remedies of the LC Issuer or any Lender hereunder, all letter of credit fees payable
under Section 2.18.4 with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Facility LC Exposure
shall be payable to the LC Issuer until such Facility LC Exposure is cash
collateralized;

(d) so long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the LC Issuer shall not be required
to issue or Modify any Facility LC, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure will be
100% covered by cash collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender or the Borrower in
accordance with Section 2.21(c); and

(e) any amount payable to such Defaulting Lender hereunder (whether on account of
principal, interest, fees or otherwise and including any amount that would otherwise be
payable to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 11.2 but excluding Section 2.19)
shall, in lieu of being distributed to such Defaulting Lender, be retained by the
Administrative Agent in a segregated account and, subject to any applicable requirements of
law, be applied at such time or times as are determined by the Administrative Agent (i)
first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative
Agent hereunder, (ii) second, pro rata, to the payment of any amounts owing by such
Defaulting Lender to the LC Issuer or Swing Line Lender hereunder, (iii) third, to the
funding of any Revolving Loan or the funding or cash collateralization of any participating
interest in any Swing Line Loan or Facility LC in respect of which such Defaulting Lender
has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the
Administrative Agent, (iv) fourth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the
Borrower, held in such account as cash collateral for future funding obligations of the
Defaulting Lender under this Agreement, (v) fifth, pro rata, to the payment of any amounts
owing to the Borrower or the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower or any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a
result

 

45

 

of such Defaulting Lender’s  breach of its obligations under this Agreement, (vi)
sixth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent, distributed to the Lenders other than
the Defaulting Lender until the ratio of the Outstanding Credit Exposure of such Lenders to
the Aggregate Outstanding Exposure equals such ratio immediately prior to the Defaulting
Lender’s failure to fund any portion of any Loans or participations in Facility LCs or Swing
Line Loans and (vii) seventh, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court
of competent jurisdiction; provided, that if such payment is (x) a prepayment of the
principal amount of any Loans or Reimbursement Obligations in respect of draws under
Facility LCs with respect to which the LC Issuer has funded its participation obligations
and (y) made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 are satisfied, such
payment shall be applied solely to prepay the Loans of, and Reimbursement Obligations owed
to, all Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders pro rata prior to being applied to the
prepayment of any Loans, or Reimbursement Obligations owed to, any Defaulting Lender.

In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrower, the LC Issuer and the Swing Line
Lender each agree that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused it to be
a Defaulting Lender, then the Swing Line Exposure and Facility LC Exposure of the Lenders shall be
readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Commitment and on such date such Lender shall
purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders as the Administrative Agent determines
necessary for such Lender to hold the Revolving Loans in accordance with its Revolving Percentage.
For purposes of this Section, (x) “Swing Line Exposure” means, with respect to any Defaulting
Lender at any time, such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Percentage of the aggregate principal amount
of all Swing Line Loans outstanding at such time and (y) “Facility LC Exposure” means with respect
to any Defaulting Lender at any time, such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Percentage of the LC
Obligations at such time.

Nothing in the foregoing shall be deemed to constitute a waiver by the Borrower of any of its
rights or remedies (whether in equity or law) against any Lender that fails to fund any of its
Loans hereunder at the time or in the amount required to be funded under the terms of this
Agreement.

2.22. Swing Line Loans. 

(a) Amount of Swing Line Loans. Upon the satisfaction of the conditions
precedent set forth in Section 4.2 and, if such Swing Line Loan is to be made on the date of
the initial Advance hereunder, the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in
Section 4.1, from and including the Restatement Date and prior to the Facility Termination
Date, the Swing Line Lender may, at its option and in its sole discretion, on the terms and
conditions set forth in this Agreement, make Swing Line Loans in Dollars to the Borrower
from time to time in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed the Swing Line Sublimit,
provided that the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure shall not at any time exceed the
Aggregate Revolving Commitment, and provided further that at no time shall the sum of (i)
the Swing Line Loans, plus (ii) the outstanding Revolving Loans made by the Swing
Line Lender pursuant to Section 2.1, plus (iii) the Swing Line Lender’s Revolving
Percentage of the LC Obligations, exceed the Swing Line Lender’s Revolving Commitment at
such time. Subject to the terms of this Agreement (including without limitation the
discretion of the Swing Line Lender), the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow Swing Line
Loans at any time prior to the Facility Termination Date. The Borrower, the Lenders and the
Swing Line Lender each hereby agree and acknowledge that the Existing Swing Line Loans shall
be deemed to be Swing Line Loans made under, and subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement.

 

46

 

(b) Borrowing Notice. The Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent
and the Swing Line Lender irrevocable notice (a “Swing Line Borrowing Notice”) not later
than noon (Minneapolis time) on the Borrowing Date of each Swing Line Loan specifying (i)
the applicable Borrowing Date (which shall be a Business Day) and (ii) the aggregate amount
of the requested Swing Line Loan, which shall not be less than $100,000. The Swing Line
Loans shall bear interest at the Base Rate or another rate if agreed to by the Borrower and
the Swing Line Lender.

(c) Making of Swing Line Loans; Participations. Not later than 2:00 p.m.
(Minneapolis time) on the applicable Borrowing Date, the Swing Line Lender shall make
available the Swing Line Loan, in funds immediately available, to the Administrative Agent
at its address specified pursuant to Article XIII. The Administrative Agent will promptly
make such funds available to the Borrower on the Borrowing Date at such address. Each time
the Swing Line Lender makes a Swing Line Loan pursuant to this Section, the Swing Line
Lender shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally
and irrevocably sold to each Lender and each Lender shall be deemed, without further action
by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from the Swing Line
Lender a participation in such Swing Line Loan in proportion to its Revolving Percentage.

(d) Repayment of Swing Line Loans. The Borrower shall pay each Swing Line Loan
in full on the date selected by the Administrative Agent. In addition, the Swing Line
Lender may at any time in its sole discretion with respect to any outstanding Swing Line Loan require each Lender to fund the participation acquired by such Lender
pursuant to Section 2.22(c) or require each Lender (including the Swing Line Lender) to make
a Revolving Loan in the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Percentage of such Swing Line Loan
(including, without limitation, any interest accrued and unpaid thereon) for the purpose of
repaying such Swing Line Loan. Not later than noon (Minneapolis time) on the date of any
notice received pursuant to this Section, each Lender shall make available its required
Revolving Loan, in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent at its address
specified pursuant to Article XIII. Revolving Loans made pursuant to this Section shall
initially be Base Rate Loans and thereafter may be continued as Base Rate Loans or converted
into Eurocurrency Loans in the manner provided in Section 2.8 and subject to the other
conditions and limitations set forth in this Article II. Unless a Lender notifies the Swing
Line Lender, prior to its making any Swing Line Loan, that any applicable condition
precedent set forth in Section 4.1 or 4.2 has not been satisfied, such Lender’s obligation
to make Revolving Loans pursuant to this Section to repay Swing Line Loans or to fund the
participation acquired pursuant to Section 2.22(c) shall be unconditional, continuing,
irrevocable and absolute and shall not be affected by any circumstances, including, without
limitation, (a) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such
Lender may have against the
Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender or any other Person, (b) the occurrence
or continuance of a Default or Event of Default, (c) any adverse change in the condition (financial
or otherwise) of the Borrower, or (d) any other circumstances, happening or event whatsoever. In
the event that any Lender fails to make payment to the Administrative Agent of any amount due under
this Section, interest shall accrue thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate for each day during
the period commencing on the date of demand and ending on the date such amount is received, and the
Administrative Agent shall be entitled to receive, retain and apply against such obligation the
principal and interest otherwise payable to such Lender hereunder until the Administrative Agent
receives such payment from such Lender or such obligation is otherwise fully satisfied. On the
Facility Termination Date, the Borrower shall repay in full the outstanding principal balance of
the Swing Line Loans.

 

47

 

ARTICLE III

YIELD PROTECTION; TAXES

3.1. Yield Protection. If, on or after the date of this Agreement, the adoption of
any law or any governmental or quasi-governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline or directive
(whether or not having the force of law), any change in the interpretation, promulgation,
implementation or administration thereof, including, notwithstanding the foregoing, all requests,
rules, guidelines or directives in connection with the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer
Protection Act regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued, by any governmental or
quasi-governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or
administration thereof or compliance by any Lender or applicable Lending Installation or the LC
Issuer with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such
authority, central bank or comparable agency related to such new adoption, interpretation or decision (a “Regulatory
Change”):

(a) subjects any Lender or applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer to any
Taxes, or changes the basis of taxation of payments (other than with respect to Excluded
Taxes) to any Lender or the LC Issuer in respect of its Eurocurrency Loans, Facility LCs or
participations therein,

(b) imposes, increases or deems applicable any reserve, assessment, insurance charge,
special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account
of, or credit extended by, any Lender or applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer
(other than reserves and assessments taken into account in determining the interest rate
applicable to Eurocurrency Advances), or

(c) imposes any other condition the result of which is to increase the cost to any
Lender or applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer of making, funding or maintaining
its Eurocurrency Loans, or of issuing or participating in Facility LCs, reduces any amount
receivable by any Lender or applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer in connection
with its Eurocurrency Loans, Facility LCs or participations therein, or requires any Lender
or applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer to make any payment calculated by
reference to the amount of Eurocurrency Loans, Facility LCs or participations therein held
or interest or LC Fees received by it, by an amount deemed material by such Lender or the LC
Issuer as the case may be,

 

48

 

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender or applicable Lending
Installation or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, of making or maintaining its Eurocurrency Loans
or Commitment or of issuing or participating in Facility LCs or to reduce the return received by
such Lender or applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, in connection
with such Eurocurrency Loans or Commitment, Facility LCs or participations therein, then, within 15
days of demand by such Lender or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, the Borrower shall pay such
Lender or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender
or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, for such increased cost or reduction in amount received.

3.2. Changes in Capital Adequacy Regulations. 

(a) If any Lender or the LC Issuer reasonably determines the amount of capital required
or expected to be maintained by such Lender or the LC Issuer, any Lending Installation of
such Lender or the LC Issuer or any corporation controlling such Lender or the LC Issuer is
increased as a result of a Change, then, within 15 days of demand by such Lender or the LC
Issuer, the Borrower shall pay such Lender or the LC Issuer the amount necessary to
compensate for any shortfall in the rate of return on the portion of such increased capital
that such Lender or the LC Issuer determines is attributable to this Agreement, its
Outstanding Credit Exposure or its Commitment to make Loans and issue or participate in
Facility LCs, as the case may be, hereunder (after taking into account such Lender’s or the
LC Issuer’s policies as to capital adequacy). “Change” means (i) any change after the date
of this Agreement in the Risk-Based Capital Guidelines or (ii) any adoption of or change in any other law, governmental or
quasi-governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline, interpretation or directive (whether
or not having the force of law) or in the interpretation, promulgation, implementation or
administration thereof after the date of this Agreement that affects the amount of capital
required or expected to be maintained by any Lender, the LC Issuer, any Lending Installation
or any corporation controlling any Lender or the LC Issuer. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
for purposes of this Agreement, all requests, rules, guidelines or directives in connection
with the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act shall be deemed to be a
Change regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued and all requests, rules, guidelines
or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on
Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States financial
regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall be deemed to be a Change
regardless of the date adopted, issued, promulgated or implemented. “Risk-Based Capital
Guidelines” means (i) the risk-based capital guidelines in effect in the United States on
the date of this Agreement, including transition rules, and (ii) the corresponding capital
regulations promulgated by regulatory authorities outside the United States, including
transition rules, and any amendments to such regulations adopted prior to the date of this
Agreement.

 

49

 

(b) If any Lender determines that any Regulatory Change has made it unlawful for such
Lender or its applicable Lending Installation to make, maintain or fund Eurocurrency
Advances, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurocurrency Base Rate,
then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, (i)
any obligation of such Lender to make or continue, or to convert any Advances to,
Eurocurrency Advances shall be suspended, and (ii) if such notice asserts the illegality of
such Lender making or maintaining Base Rate Advances the interest rate on which is
determined by reference to the Eurocurrency Rate component of the Base Rate, the interest
rate on which Base Rate Advances of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such
illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Eurocurrency
Rate component of the Base Rate, in each case until such Lender notifies the Administrative
Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer
exist. Upon receipt of such notice, (x) the Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender
(with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all
Eurocurrency Advances of such Lender to Base Rate Advances (the interest rate on which Base
Rate Advances of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by
the Administrative Agent without reference to the Eurocurrency Rate component of the Base
Rate), either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully
continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Advances to such day, or immediately, if such Lender
may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Advances and (y) if such notice
asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon the
Eurocurrency Rate, the Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension
compute the Base Rate applicable to such Lender without reference to the Eurocurrency Rate
component thereof until the Administrative Agent is advised in writing by such Lender that
it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates
based upon the Eurocurrency Rate. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower
shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.

3.3. Availability of Types of Advances; Adequacy of Interest Rate. If the
Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders reasonably determine that deposits of a type and
maturity appropriate to match fund Eurocurrency Advances are not available to such Lenders in the
relevant market or the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Lenders, reasonably
determines that the interest rate applicable to Eurocurrency Advances is not ascertainable or does
not adequately and fairly reflect the cost of making or maintaining Eurocurrency Advances, then the
Administrative Agent shall suspend the availability of Eurocurrency Advances and require any
affected Eurocurrency Advances to be repaid or converted to Base Rate Advances, subject to the
payment of any funding indemnification amounts required by Section 3.4.

3.4. Funding Indemnification. If any payment of a Eurocurrency Advance occurs on a
date that is not the last day of the applicable Interest Period, whether because of acceleration,
prepayment or otherwise, or a Eurocurrency Advance is not made on the date specified by the
Borrower for any reason other than default by the Lenders, the Borrower will indemnify each Lender
for such Lender’s reasonable costs, expenses and Interest Differential (as reasonably determined by
such Lender) incurred as a result of such prepayment. “Interest Differential” means the greater of
zero and the financial loss incurred by the Lender resulting from prepayment, calculated as the
difference between the amount of interest such Lender would have earned (from the investments in
money markets as of the Borrowing Date of such Advance) had prepayment not occurred and the
interest such Lender will actually earn (from like investments in money markets as of the date of
prepayment) as a result of the redeployment of funds from the prepayment. Because of the
short-term nature of this facility, Borrower agrees that Interest Differential shall not be
discounted to its present value.

 

50

 

3.5. Taxes. 

(a) All payments by the Borrower to or for the account of any Lender, the LC Issuer or
the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any Note or Facility LC Application shall be
made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all Taxes. If the Borrower is
required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to any
Lender, the LC Issuer or the Administrative Agent, (a) 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) such Lender, the LC Issuer or the Administrative
Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no
such deductions been made, (b) the Borrower shall make such deductions, (c) the Borrower
shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant authority in accordance with applicable
law and (d) the Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent the original copy of a
receipt evidencing payment thereof within 30 days after such payment is made.

(b) In addition, the Borrower hereby agrees to pay any present or future stamp or
documentary taxes and any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies that
arise from any payment made hereunder or under any Note or Facility LC Application or from
the execution or delivery of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any Note or
Facility LC Application (“Other Taxes”).

(c) The Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent, the LC Issuer and
each Lender for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any
Taxes or Other Taxes imposed on amounts payable under this Section) paid by the
Administrative Agent, the LC Issuer or such Lender as a result of its Commitment or any
Loans made by it hereunder or otherwise in connection with its participation in this
Agreement and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom
or with respect thereto. Payments due under this indemnification shall be made within 30
days after the Administrative Agent, the LC Issuer or such Lender makes demand therefor
pursuant to Section 3.6.

(d) Each Lender that is not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America
or a state thereof (each a “Non-U.S. Lender”) agrees that it will, not more than ten
Business Days after the date of this Agreement (or within ten Business Days of any Person
becoming a Lender pursuant to Section 12.3), (i) deliver to the Administrative Agent (and
upon request, the Borrower) two duly completed copies of United States Internal Revenue
Service Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI, certifying in either case that such Lender is entitled to
receive payments under this Agreement without deduction or withholding of any United States
federal income taxes, and (ii) deliver to the Administrative Agent a United States Internal
Revenue Form W-8 or W-9, as

 

51

 

the case may be, and certify that it is entitled to an exemption
from United States backup withholding tax. Each Non-U.S. Lender further undertakes to
deliver to each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (x) renewals or additional
copies of such form (or any successor form) on or before the date that such form expires or
becomes obsolete, and (y) after any event requiring a change in the most recent forms so
delivered by it, such additional forms or amendments thereto as may be reasonably requested
by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent. All forms or amendments described in the
preceding sentence shall certify that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this
Agreement without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes, unless
an event (including without limitation any change in treaty, law or regulation) has occurred
prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be required that renders all
such forms inapplicable or that would prevent such Lender from duly completing and
delivering any such form or amendment with respect to it and such Lender advises the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent that it is not capable of receiving payments without
any deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax.

(e) For any period during which a Non-U.S. Lender has failed to provide the Borrower
with an appropriate form pursuant to clause (d) above (unless such failure is due to a
change in treaty, law or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration
thereof by any governmental authority, occurring subsequent to the date on which a form
originally was required to be provided), such Non-U.S. Lender shall not
be entitled to indemnification under this Section with respect to Taxes imposed by the
United States; provided that, should a Non-U.S. Lender that is otherwise exempt from or
subject to a reduced rate of withholding tax become subject to Taxes because of its failure
to deliver a form required under clause (d), above, the Borrower shall take such steps as
such Non-U.S. Lender reasonably requests to assist such Non-U.S. Lender to recover such
Taxes.

(f) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax
with respect to payments under this Agreement or any Note pursuant to the law of any
relevant jurisdiction or any treaty 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 as will permit such
payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate.

(g) If the U.S. Internal Revenue Service or any other governmental authority of the
United States or any other country or any political subdivision thereof asserts a claim that
the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the
account of any Lender (because the appropriate form was not delivered or properly completed,
because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstances
that rendered its exemption from withholding ineffective or for any other reason), such
Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or
indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as tax, withholding therefor or otherwise, including
penalties and interest, and including taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable
to the Administrative Agent under this subsection (vii), together with all costs and
expenses related thereto (including attorneys’ fees and time charges of attorneys for the
Administrative Agent, which attorneys may be employees of the Administrative Agent). The
obligations of the Lenders under this Section shall survive the payment of the Obligations
and termination of this Agreement.

 

52

 

(h) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S.
Federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender fails to comply with the applicable
reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of
the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent (i) a certification signed by the chief financial officer, principal accounting
officer, treasurer or controller of such Lender, and (ii) other documentation reasonably
requested by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent sufficient for the Administrative
Agent and the Borrower to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that
such Lender has complied with such applicable reporting requirements.

3.6. Lender Statements; Survival of Indemnity. To the extent reasonably possible,
each Lender shall designate an alternate Lending Installation with respect to its Eurocurrency
Loans to reduce any liability of the Borrower to such Lender under Sections 3.1, 3.2 and 3.5 or to
avoid the unavailability of Eurocurrency Advances under Section 3.3, so long as such designation is
not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, disadvantageous to such Lender. Each Lender shall
deliver a written statement of such Lender to
the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) as to the amount due, if any, under
Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.4 or 3.5. Such written statement shall set forth in reasonable detail the
calculations upon which such Lender determined such amount and shall be final, conclusive and
binding on the Borrower in the absence of manifest error. Determination of amounts payable under
such Sections in connection with a Eurocurrency Loan shall be calculated as though each Lender
funded its Eurocurrency Loan through the purchase of a deposit of the type and maturity
corresponding to the deposit used as a reference in determining the Eurocurrency Rate applicable to
such Loan, whether in fact that is the case or not. Unless otherwise provided herein, the amount
specified in the written statement of any Lender shall be payable on demand after receipt by the
Borrower of such written statement. The obligations of the Borrower under Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.4
and 3.5 shall survive payment of the Obligations and termination of this Agreement.

ARTICLE V

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

The Borrower represents and warrants to the Lenders that:

5.1. Existence and Standing. Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries is a
corporation, partnership (in the case of Subsidiaries only) or limited liability company duly and
properly incorporated or organized, as the case may be, validly existing and (to the extent such
concept applies to such entity) in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of
incorporation or organization and has all requisite authority to conduct its business in each
jurisdiction in which it conducts its business.

5.2. Authorization and Validity. The Borrower has the power and authority and legal right to execute and deliver the Loan
Documents to which it is a party and to perform its obligations thereunder. The execution and
delivery by the Borrower of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and the performance of its
obligations thereunder have been duly authorized by proper corporate proceedings, and the Loan
Documents to which the Borrower is a party constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the
Borrower enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with their terms, except as enforceability
may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’
rights generally.

5.3. No Conflict; Government Consent. Neither the execution and delivery by the
Borrower of the Loan Documents to which it is a party, nor the consummation of the transactions
therein contemplated, nor compliance with the provisions thereof will violate (i) any law, rule,
regulation, order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree or award binding on the Borrower or any of
its Subsidiaries, (ii) the Borrower’s or any Subsidiary’s articles or certificate of incorporation,
partnership agreement, certificate of partnership, articles or certificate of organization, bylaws
or operating or other management agreement, as the case may be or (iii) the provisions of any
indenture, instrument or agreement to which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or
is subject, or by which it, or its Property, is bound, or conflict with or constitute a default
thereunder (other than to the extent that such conflict or default could not reasonably be expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect), or result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any
Lien in, of or on the Property of the Borrower or a Subsidiary pursuant to the terms of any such
indenture, instrument or agreement. No order, consent, adjudication, approval, license,
authorization or validation of, filing, recording or registration with, exemption by or other
action in respect of any governmental or public body or authority, or any subdivision thereof, that
has not been obtained by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is required to be obtained by the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with the execution and delivery of the Loan
Documents, the borrowings under this Agreement, the payment and performance by the Borrower of the
Obligations or the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability of any of the Loan
Documents.

 

58

 

5.4. Financial Statements. The December 31, 2010, December 31, 2009 and December 31,
2008 consolidated financial statements and March 31, 2011 unaudited financial statements of (a) the
Borrower and its Subsidiaries (other than Bruenger and its Subsidiaries) and (b) of Bruenger and
its Subsidiaries, each heretofore delivered to the Lenders, were prepared in accordance with GAAP
in effect on the date such statements were prepared and fairly present in all material respects the
consolidated financial condition and operations of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries at such dates
and the consolidated results of their operations for the periods then ended. The financial
projections delivered pursuant to Section 4.1.1(p) were prepared in good faith and are based on
reasonable assumptions as to the Borrower and its Subsidiaries after giving effect to the
consummation of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein. As of the dates of such
financial statements, Bruenger and its Subsidiaries had no material obligation, contingent
liability, liability for taxes or long-term lease obligation known to the Borrower after its due
diligence inquiry which is not reflected in such financial statements or in the notes thereto. The
accompanying unaudited consolidated pro forma balance sheet of the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries as at the Restatement Date, adjusted to give effect to the consummation of the
Bruenger Acquisition and the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents, the Bruenger
Acquisition Documents and the financings contemplated hereby as if such transactions had occurred
on such date (excluding the impact of the revaluation of the balance sheet in accordance with FASB
141 “Business Combinations”), is consistent in all material respects with such projections.

5.5. Material Adverse Change. Since December 31, 2010, there has been no change in
the business, Property, financial condition or results of operations of the Borrower, its
Subsidiaries, or Bruenger and its Subsidiaries that could reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect.

5.6. Taxes. Each of Borrower, its Subsidiaries and, prior to the Restatement Date, to
the knowledge of the Borrower, Bruenger and its Subsidiaries, have filed all United States federal
tax returns and all other material tax returns that are required to be filed and have paid all
taxes due pursuant to said returns or pursuant to any assessment received by the Borrower or any of
its Subsidiaries, except such taxes, if any, as are being contested in good faith, as to which
adequate reserves have been provided in accordance with GAAP and as to which no Lien exists. No
tax liens have been filed and no claims are being asserted with respect to any such taxes. The
charges, accruals and reserves on the books of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries in respect of any
taxes or other governmental charges are adequate. Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary has
participated in any transaction that relates to a year of the taxpayer (which is still open under
the applicable statute of limitations) that is a “reportable transaction” within the meaning of
Treasury Regulation § 1.6011-4(b)(2) (irrespective of the date when the transaction was entered
into).

5.7. Litigation and Contingent Obligations. There is no litigation, arbitration,
governmental investigation, proceeding or inquiry pending or, to the knowledge of any of their
officers, threatened against or affecting the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or, prior to the
Restatement Date, to the knowledge of the Borrower, Bruenger and its Subsidiaries, that could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or that seeks to prevent, enjoin or delay
the making of any Credit Extensions. Other than any liability incident to any litigation,
arbitration or proceeding that could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect,
the Borrower has no material contingent obligations not provided for or disclosed in the financial
statements referred to in Section 5.4.

 

59

 

5.8. Subsidiaries. Schedule 5.8 contains an accurate list of all Subsidiaries of the
Borrower as of the date of this Agreement after giving effect to the Bruenger Acquisition, setting
forth their respective jurisdictions of organization and the percentage of their respective capital
stock or other ownership interests owned by the Borrower or other Subsidiaries. All of the issued
and outstanding shares of capital stock or other ownership interests of such Subsidiaries have been
(to the extent such concepts are relevant with respect to such ownership interests) duly
authorized and issued and are fully paid and non-assessable.

5.9. ERISA. No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that, when
taken together with all other such ERISA Events for which liability is reasonably expected to
occur, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

5.10. Accuracy of Information. No information, exhibit or report furnished by the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to the Administrative Agent or to any Lender in connection with
the negotiation of, or compliance with, the Loan Documents, including without limitation the
financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 5.4, contained any material misstatement of fact
or omitted to state a material fact or any fact necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading in light of the circumstances when made.

5.11. Regulation U. Margin stock (as defined in Regulation U) constitutes less than
25% of the value of those assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries that are subject to any
limitation on sale, pledge or other restriction hereunder. Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary
is engaged principally, or as one of its important activities, in the business of extending credit
for the purpose of carrying Margin Stock.

5.12. Material Agreements. Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary is a party to any
agreement or instrument or subject to any charter or other corporate, limited liability company or
partnership restriction that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary is in default in the performance, observance or fulfillment
of any of the obligations, covenants or conditions in any agreement to which it is a party
(including any agreement or instrument evidencing or governing indebtedness), which default could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.13. Compliance With Laws. The Borrower and its Subsidiaries and, prior to the
Restatement Date, to the knowledge of the Borrower, Bruenger and its Subsidiaries, have complied in
all material respects with all applicable statutes, rules, regulations, orders and restrictions of
any domestic or foreign government or any instrumentality or agency thereof having jurisdiction
over the conduct of their respective businesses or the ownership of their respective Property.

 

60

 

5.14. Ownership of Properties; Perfection of Liens. Except as set forth on Schedule
5.14, on the date of this Agreement, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries will have good, and in the
case of real property, marketable title, free and clear of
all Liens other than those permitted by Section 6.22, to all of the Property and assets
reflected in the Borrower’s most recent consolidated financial statements provided to the
Administrative Agent as owned by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries. The Obligations are secured by
valid, perfected, first-priority Liens (subject to Liens permitted pursuant to Section 6.22) in
favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders, covering and encumbering all
Collateral granted or purported to be granted by the Collateral Documents, to the extent perfection
has occurred by the filing of a UCC financing statement or by continued possession or control
(other than with respect to Liens on Collateral represented by a certificate of title). Neither
the Borrower nor any Subsidiary has subordinated any of its rights under any Obligation owing to it
to the rights of another Person.

5.15. Plan Assets; Prohibited Transactions. The Borrower is not an entity deemed to
hold “plan assets” within the meaning of 29 C.F.R. § 2510.3-101 of an employee benefit plan (as
defined in § 3(3) of ERISA) that is subject to Title I of ERISA or any plan (within the meaning of
§ 4975 of the Code), and neither the execution of this Agreement nor the making of Credit
Extensions hereunder gives rise to a Prohibited Transaction.

5.16. Environmental Matters. The ongoing operations of the Borrower and each of its
Subsidiaries and, prior to the Restatement Date, to the knowledge of the Borrower, Bruenger and its
Subsidiaries, comply in all respects with all Environmental Laws, except such non-compliance as
could not (if enforced in accordance with applicable law) reasonably be expected to result, either
individually or in the aggregate, in a Material Adverse Effect. Each of the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries has obtained, and maintained in good standing, all licenses, permits, authorizations,
registrations and other approvals required under any Environmental Law and required for its
ordinary course operations, and for its reasonably anticipated future operations, and each of the
Borrower and its Subsidiaries is in compliance with all terms and conditions thereof, except where
the failure to so comply could not reasonably be expected to result in material liability to any
such Person and could not reasonably be expected to result, either individually or in the
aggregate, in a Material Adverse Effect. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.16, none of the
Borrower and its Subsidiaries or any of their properties or operations is subject to, or reasonably
anticipates the issuance of, any written order from or agreement with any Federal, state or local
governmental authority, nor subject to any judicial or docketed administrative or other proceeding,
respecting any Environmental Law, Environmental Claim or Hazardous Substance. There are no
Hazardous Substances or other conditions or circumstances existing with respect to any property,
arising from operations prior to the date hereof, or relating to any waste disposal, of any of the
Borrower and its Subsidiaries that would reasonably be expected to result, either individually or

its Subsidiaries do not expend the entire capital expenditure limitation in a given fiscal
year, the Borrower may carry forward to the immediately succeeding fiscal year up to 50% of
the unutilized portion; provided that for the avoidance of doubt any such amounts carried
over can only be used in the immediately succeeding fiscal year, after which time such
amounts shall cease to be carried over. All Capital Expenditures shall be applied first to
reduce the applicable capital expenditure limitation for the period during which such
Capital Expenditures are made, and then to reduce the carry-forward from the previous fiscal
year, if any.

ARTICLE VIII

ACCELERATION, WAIVERS, AMENDMENTS AND REMEDIES

8.1. Acceleration; Remedies. 

(a) If any Event of Default described in Section 7.6 or 7.7 occurs, the obligations of
the Lenders to make Loans hereunder and the obligation and power of the LC Issuer to issue
Facility LCs shall automatically terminate and the Obligations shall immediately become due
and payable without any election or action on the part of the Administrative Agent, the LC
Issuer or any Lender and the Borrower will be and become thereby unconditionally obligated,
without any further notice, act or demand, to pay to the Administrative Agent an amount in
immediately available funds, which funds shall be held in the Facility LC Collateral
Account, equal to the difference of (x) the amount of LC Obligations at such time, less (y)
the amount on deposit in the Facility LC Collateral Account at such time that is free and
clear of all rights and claims of third parties and has not been applied against the
Obligations (such difference, the “Collateral Shortfall Amount”). If any other Event of
Default occurs, the Required Lenders (or the Administrative Agent with the consent of the
Required Lenders) may (a) terminate or suspend the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans
hereunder and the obligation and power of the LC Issuer to issue Facility LCs, or declare
the Obligations to be due and payable, or both, whereupon the Obligations shall become
immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all
of which the Borrower hereby expressly waives, and (b) upon notice to the Borrower and in
addition to the continuing right to demand payment of all amounts payable under this
Agreement, make demand on the Borrower to pay, and the Borrower will, forthwith upon such
demand and without any further notice or act, pay to the Administrative Agent, the
Collateral Shortfall Amount, which shall be deposited in the Facility LC Collateral Account.

(b) If at any time while any Event of Default is continuing, the Administrative Agent
determines that the Collateral Shortfall Amount at such time is greater than zero, the
Administrative Agent may make demand on the Borrower to pay, and the Borrower will,
forthwith upon such demand and without any further notice or act, pay to the Administrative
Agent, the Collateral Shortfall Amount, which shall be deposited in the Facility LC
Collateral Account.

(c) The Administrative Agent may at any time or from time to time after funds are
deposited in the Facility LC Collateral Account apply such funds to the payment of the
Obligations and any other amounts as have become due and payable by the Borrower to the
Lenders or the LC Issuer under the Loan Documents, as provided in Section 8.2.

(d) At any time while any Event of Default is continuing, neither the Borrower nor any
Person claiming on behalf of or through the Borrower shall have any right to withdraw any of
the funds held in the Facility LC Collateral Account. After all of the Obligations have
been indefeasibly paid in full and the Aggregate Commitment has been terminated, any funds
remaining in the Facility LC Collateral Account shall be returned by the Administrative
Agent to the Borrower or paid to whomever may be legally entitled thereto at such time.

 

81

 

(e) If, within 90 days after acceleration of the maturity of the Obligations or
termination of the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans and the obligation and power of
the LC Issuer to issue Facility LCs hereunder as a result of any Event of Default (other
than any Event of Default as described in Section 7.6 or 7.7) and before any judgment or
decree for the payment of the Obligations due has been obtained or entered, the Required
Lenders (in their sole discretion) so direct, the Administrative Agent shall, by notice to
the Borrower, rescind and annul such acceleration and/or termination.

(f) Upon and during the continuation of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent
may, subject to the direction of the Required Lenders, exercise all rights and remedies
under the Loan Documents and enforce all other rights and remedies under applicable law.

8.2. Application of Funds. After the exercise of remedies provided for in Section 8.1
(or after the Obligations have automatically become immediately due and payable as set forth in the
first sentence of Section 8.1(i)), the Administrative Agent shall apply any amounts it receives on
account of the Obligations in the following order:

8.2.1 First, to payment of fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts (including
fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent and amounts payable
under Article III) payable to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such;

8.2.2 Second, to payment of fees, indemnities and other amounts (other than principal,
interest, LC Fees and Commitment Fees) payable to the Lenders and the LC Issuer (including
fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the respective Lenders and the LC Issuer as
required by Section 9.6 and amounts payable under Article III);

8.2.3 Third, to payment of accrued and unpaid LC Fees, LC Fronting Fees, Commitment
Fees and interest on the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations, ratably among the Lenders and
the LC Issuer in proportion to the respective amounts described in this Section payable to
them;

8.2.4 Fourth, to payment of the unpaid principal of the Loans and Reimbursement
Obligations, ratably among the Lenders in proportion to their Pro Rata Shares;

8.2.5 Fifth, to payment of all other Secured Obligations ratably among the Lenders;

8.2.6 Sixth, to the Administrative Agent for deposit to the Facility LC Collateral
Account; and

8.2.7 Last, the balance, if any, to the Borrower or as otherwise required by law.

 

82

 

8.3. Amendments. Subject to the provisions of this Section, the Required Lenders (or
the Administrative Agent with the consent in writing of the Required Lenders) and the Borrower may
enter into agreements supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding or modifying any provisions to
the Loan Documents, changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or the Borrower hereunder or
waiving any Event of Default hereunder; provided, however, that no such supplemental agreement
shall:

(a) without the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, extend the final
maturity of any Loan, extend the expiry date of any Facility LC to a date after the Facility
Termination Date, postpone any regularly scheduled payment of principal of any Loan, forgive
all or any portion of the principal amount thereof or any Reimbursement Obligation related
thereto, reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or fees thereon or
Reimbursement Obligations related thereto or increase the amount of the Commitment of any
Lender hereunder;

(b) without the consent of all of the Lenders, reduce the percentage specified in the
definition of Required Lenders;

(c) without the consent of all of the Lenders, extend the Facility Termination Date, or
permit the Borrower to assign its rights under this Agreement;

(d) without the consent of all of the Lenders, amend the definition of “Defaulting
Lender”;

(e) without the consent of all of the Lenders, amend Section 6.4 to permit the Borrower
to carry on and conduct its business in a substantially different manner or in a
substantially different field of enterprise as such business is conducted on the Restatement
Date;

(f) without the consent of all of the Lenders, amend Section 12.3 to add any consents,
restrictions or limitations on the right of a Lender to assign its Loans or Commitments;

(g) without the consent of all of the Lenders, amend this Section; or

(h) without the consent of all of the Lenders, release any guarantor of any Advance or,
except as provided in the Collateral Documents, release all or substantially all of any
Collateral.

No amendment of any provision of this Agreement relating to the Administrative Agent shall be
effective without the written consent of the Administrative Agent, and no amendment of any
provision relating to the LC Issuer shall be effective without the written consent of the LC
Issuer. No amendment to any provision of this Agreement relating to the Swing Line Lender or any
Swing Line Loans shall be effective without the written consent of the Swing Line Lender.

8.4. Preservation of Rights. No delay or omission of the Lenders, the LC Issuer or
the Administrative Agent to exercise any right under the Loan Documents shall impair such right or
be construed to be a waiver of any Event of Default or an acquiescence therein, and the making of a
Credit Extension notwithstanding the existence of an Event of Default or the inability of the
Borrower to satisfy the conditions precedent to such Credit Extension shall not constitute any
waiver or acquiescence. Any single or partial exercise of any such right shall not preclude other
or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, and no waiver, amendment or other
variation of the terms, conditions or provisions of the Loan Documents whatsoever shall be valid
unless in writing signed by the Lenders required pursuant to Section 8.2, and then only to the
extent specifically set forth in such writing. All remedies in the Loan Documents or afforded by
law shall be cumulative and shall be available to the Administrative Agent, the LC Issuer and the
Lenders until the Obligations have been paid in full.

ARTICLE IX

GENERAL PROVISIONS

9.1. Survival of Representations. All representations and warranties of the Borrower
in this Agreement shall survive the making of the Credit Extensions herein contemplated.

notwithstanding, neither the LC Issuer nor any Lender shall be obligated to extend credit to the
Borrower in violation of any limitation or prohibition provided by any applicable statute or
regulation.

9.3. Headings. Section headings in the Loan Documents are for convenience of
reference only and shall not govern the interpretation of any of the provisions of the Loan
Documents.

9.4. Entire Agreement. The Loan Documents embody the entire agreement and understanding among the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent, the LC Issuer and the Lenders and supersede all prior agreements and
understandings among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the LC Issuer and the Lenders relating
to the subject matter thereof other than those contained in the fee letter described in Section
10.13.

9.5. Several Obligations; Benefits of this Agreement. The respective obligations of
the Lenders hereunder are several and not joint, and no Lender shall be the partner or agent of any
other (except to the extent to which the Administrative Agent is authorized to act as such). The
failure of any Lender to perform any of its obligations hereunder shall not relieve any other
Lender from any of its obligations hereunder. This Agreement shall not be construed so as to
confer any right or benefit upon any Person other than the parties to this Agreement and their
respective successors and assigns, provided, however, that the parties hereto expressly agree that
the Arranger shall enjoy the benefits of the provisions of Sections 9.6, 9.10 and 10.11 to the
extent specifically set forth therein and shall have the right to enforce such provisions on its
own behalf and in its own name to the same extent as if it were a party to this Agreement.

 

84

 

9.6. Expenses; Indemnification. 

(a) The Borrower shall reimburse the Administrative Agent and the Arranger upon demand
for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses paid or incurred by the Administrative Agent or
the Arranger, including, without limitation, filing and recording costs and fees, costs of
any environmental review (including the costs of internal review of a third party
environmental review), charges and disbursements of outside counsel to the Administrative
Agent and the Arranger (determined on the basis of such counsel’s generally applicable
rates, which may be higher than the rates such counsel charges the Administrative Agent and
the Arranger in certain matters) and/or following the occurrence of an Event of Default the
allocated costs of in-house counsel incurred from time to time, in connection with the
preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery, syndication, distribution (including, without
limitation, via the internet), review, amendment, modification and administration of the
Loan Documents. The Borrower also agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent, the
Arranger, the LC Issuer and the Lenders for any reasonable costs, internal charges and
out-of-pocket expenses, including charges and disbursements of outside counsel to the
Administrative Agent, the Arranger, the LC Issuer and the Lenders (determined on the basis
of such counsel’s generally applicable rates, which may be higher than the rates such
counsel charges such parties in certain matters) and/or the allocated costs of in-house
counsel incurred from time to time, paid or incurred by the Administrative Agent, the
Arranger, the LC Issuer or any Lender in connection with the collection and enforcement of
the Loan Documents. Expenses being reimbursed by the Borrower under this Section include,
without limitation, reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Reports
described in the following sentence. The Borrower acknowledges that from time to time U.S.
Bank may prepare and may distribute to the Lenders (but shall have no obligation or duty to
prepare or to distribute to the Lenders) certain audit reports (the “Reports”) pertaining to
the Borrower’s assets for internal use by U.S. Bank from information furnished to it by or
on behalf of the Borrower, after U.S. Bank has exercised its rights of inspection pursuant
to this Agreement.

(b) The Borrower hereby further agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent, the
Arranger, the LC Issuer, each Lender, their respective affiliates and each of their
directors, officers and employees against all losses, claims, damages, penalties, judgments,
liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, all expenses of litigation or
preparation therefor whether or not the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, the LC Issuer,
any Lender or any affiliate is a party thereto) that any of them may pay or incur arising
out of or relating to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the transactions
contemplated hereby or the direct or indirect application or proposed application of the
proceeds of any Credit Extension hereunder except to the extent that they are determined in
a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from
the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party seeking indemnification. The
obligations of the Borrower under this Section shall survive the termination of this
Agreement.

9.7. Numbers of Documents. All statements, notices, closing documents and requests
hereunder shall be furnished to the Administrative Agent with sufficient counterparts so that the
Administrative Agent may furnish one to each of the Lenders.

 

85

 

9.8. Accounting. Except as provided to the contrary herein, all accounting terms used
herein shall be interpreted and all accounting determinations hereunder shall be made in accordance
with GAAP in a manner consistent with that used in preparing the financial statements referred to
in Section 5.4. If at any time any change in GAAP would affect in any material respect the
computation of any financial ratio or requirement set forth in any Loan Document, and the Borrower,
the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders so request, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders
and the Borrower shall negotiate in good faith to amend such ratio or requirement to preserve the
original intent thereof in light of such change in GAAP (subject to the approval of the Required
Lenders), provided that, until so amended, such ratio or requirement shall continue to be computed
in accordance with GAAP prior to such change therein and the Borrower shall provide to the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders reconciliation statements showing the difference in such
calculation, together with the delivery of monthly, quarterly and annual financial statements
required hereunder.

9.9. Severability of Provisions. Any provision in any Loan Document that is held to
be inoperative, unenforceable or invalid in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be
inoperative, unenforceable or invalid without affecting the remaining provisions in that
jurisdiction or the operation, enforceability or validity of that provision in any other
jurisdiction, and to this end the provisions of all Loan Documents are declared to be severable.

9.10. Nonliability of Lenders. The relationship between the Borrower on the one hand and the Lenders, the LC Issuer and
the Administrative Agent on the other hand shall be solely that of borrower and lender. Neither
the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, the LC Issuer nor any Lender shall have any fiduciary
responsibilities to the Borrower. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, the LC Issuer
nor any Lender undertakes any responsibility to the Borrower to review or inform the Borrower of
any matter in connection with any phase of the Borrower’s business or operations. The Borrower
agrees that neither the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, the LC Issuer nor any Lender shall have
liability to the Borrower (whether sounding in tort, contract or otherwise) for losses suffered by
the Borrower in connection with, arising out of or in any way related to the transactions
contemplated and the relationship established by the Loan Documents, or any act, omission or event
occurring in connection therewith, unless it is determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a
court of competent jurisdiction that such losses resulted from the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of the party from which recovery is sought. Neither the Administrative Agent, the
Arranger, the LC Issuer nor any Lender shall have any liability with respect to, and the Borrower
hereby waives, releases and agrees not to sue for, any special, indirect, consequential or punitive
damages suffered by the Borrower in connection with, arising out of or in any way related to the
Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby.

9.11. Confidentiality. The Administrative Agent and each Lender agrees to hold any
confidential information that it receives from the Borrower or any Subsidiary in connection with
this Agreement in confidence, except for disclosure (i) to its Affiliates and to the Administrative
Agent and any other Lender and their respective Affiliates, (ii) to its legal counsel, accountants,
and other professional advisors or to a Transferee, (iii) to regulatory officials, (iv) to any
Person as requested pursuant to or as required by law, regulation or legal process, (v) to any
Person in connection with any legal proceeding to which it is a party, (vi) to its direct or
indirect contractual counterparties in swap agreements or to legal counsel, accountants and other
professional advisors to such counterparties, and (vii) permitted by Section 12.4. Without
limiting Section 9.4, the Borrower agrees that the terms of this Section shall set forth the entire
agreement between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and each Lender with respect to any
confidential information previously or hereafter received by the Administrative Agent or such
Lender in connection with this Agreement, and this Section shall supersede any and all prior
confidentiality agreements entered into by the Administrative Agent or any Lender with respect to
such confidential information.

 

86

 

9.12. Nonreliance. Each Lender hereby represents that it is not relying on or looking
to any margin stock (as defined in Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System) for the repayment of the Credit Extensions provided for herein.

9.13. Disclosure. The Borrower and each Lender hereby acknowledge and agree that U.S.
Bank and/or its Affiliates from time to time may hold investments in, make other loans to or have
other relationships with the Borrower and its Affiliates.

9.14. U.S.A. PATRIOT ACT NOTIFICATION. The following notification is provided to
Borrower pursuant to Section 326 of the U.S.A. Patriot Act:

(a) Each Lender that is subject to the requirements of the U.S.A. Patriot Act hereby
notifies the Borrower and each Subsidiary that pursuant to the requirements of the U.S.A.
Patriot Act, such Lender is required to obtain, verify and record information that
identifies such Borrower or Subsidiary, which information includes the name and address of
such Person and other information that will allow such Lender to identify such Person in
accordance with the U.S.A. Patriot Act.

ARTICLE X

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

10.1. Appointment; Nature of Relationship. Each Lender hereby appoints U.S. Bank as
its contractual representative (herein referred to as the “Administrative Agent”) hereunder and
under each other Loan Document, and each of the Lenders irrevocably authorizes the Administrative
Agent to act as the contractual representative of such Lender with the rights and duties expressly
set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent agrees to act as such
contractual representative upon the express conditions in this Article X. Notwithstanding the use
of the defined term “Administrative Agent,” it is expressly understood and agreed that the
Administrative Agent shall not have any fiduciary responsibilities to any Lender by reason of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document and that the Administrative Agent is merely acting as the
contractual representative of the Lenders with only those duties as are expressly set forth in this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents. In its capacity as the Lenders’ contractual
representative, the Administrative Agent (i) does not hereby assume any fiduciary duties to any of
the Lenders, (ii) is a “representative” of the Lenders within the meaning of the term “secured
party” as defined in the New York Uniform Commercial Code and (iii) is acting as an independent
contractor, the rights and duties of which are limited to those expressly set forth in this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each of the Lenders hereby agrees to assert no claim
against the Administrative Agent on any agency theory or any other theory of liability for breach
of fiduciary duty, all of which claims each Lender hereby waives.

 

87

 

10.2. Powers. The Administrative Agent shall have and may exercise such powers under
the Loan Documents as are specifically delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms thereof,
together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Administrative Agent shall
have no implied duties to the Lenders and no obligation to the Lenders to take any action
thereunder except any action specifically provided by the Loan Documents to be taken by the
Administrative Agent.

10.3. General Immunity. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees
shall be liable to the Borrower or any Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken hereunder
or under any other Loan Document or in connection herewith or therewith except to the extent such
action or inaction is determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent
jurisdiction to have arisen from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative
Agent or any its directors, officers, agents or employees, as the case may be.

10.4. No Responsibility for Loans, Recitals, etc. Neither the Administrative Agent
nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be responsible for or have any duty
to ascertain, inquire into or verify (a) any statement, warranty or representation made in
connection with any Loan Document or any borrowing hereunder; (b) the performance or observance of
any of the covenants or agreements of any obligor under any Loan Document, including, without
limitation, any agreement by an obligor to furnish information directly to each Lender; (c) the
satisfaction of any condition specified in Article IV, except receipt of items required to be
delivered solely to the Administrative Agent; (d) the existence or possible existence of any
Default or Event of Default; (e) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness, sufficiency or
genuineness of any Loan Document or any other instrument or writing furnished in connection
therewith; (f) the value, sufficiency, creation, perfection or priority of any Lien in any
collateral security; or (g) the financial condition of the Borrower or any guarantor of any of the
Obligations or of any of the Borrower’s or any such guarantor’s respective Subsidiaries.

10.5. Action on Instructions of Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases
be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder and under any other Loan
Document in accordance with written instructions signed by the Required Lenders, and such
instructions and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all of the
Lenders. The Lenders hereby acknowledge that the Administrative Agent shall be under no duty to
take any discretionary action permitted to be taken by it pursuant to the provisions of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document unless the Required Lenders request in writing that it take
such action. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any
action hereunder and under any other Loan Document unless it is first indemnified to its
satisfaction by the Lenders pro rata against any and all liability, cost and expense that it may
incur by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.

10.6. Employment of Administrative Agents and Counsel. The Administrative Agent may
execute any of its duties as Administrative Agent hereunder and under any other Loan Document by or
through employees, agents and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be answerable to the Lenders, except
as to money or securities received by it or its authorized agents, for the default or misconduct of
any employees, agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care. The Administrative
Agent shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning the contractual arrangement between the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders and all matters pertaining to the Administrative Agent’s
duties hereunder and under any other Loan Document.

 

88

 

10.7. Reliance on Documents; Counsel. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to
rely upon any Note, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex,
electronic mail message, statement, paper or document it believes to be genuine and correct and to
have been signed or sent by the proper person or persons, and, in respect to legal matters, upon
the opinion of counsel selected by the Administrative Agent, which counsel may be employees of the
Administrative Agent. For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in
Sections 4.1 and 4.2, each Lender that has signed this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented
to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with each document or other matter required thereunder
to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a Lender unless the
Administrative Agent has received notice from such Lender prior to the applicable date specifying
its objection thereto.

10.8. Administrative Agent’s Reimbursement and Indemnification. The Lenders agree to
reimburse and indemnify the Administrative Agent ratably in proportion to their respective
Commitments (or, if the Commitments have been terminated, in proportion to their Commitments
immediately prior to such termination) (i) for any amounts not reimbursed by the Borrower for which
the Administrative Agent is entitled to reimbursement by the Borrower under the Loan Documents,
(ii) for any other expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders, in
connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration and enforcement of the Loan
Documents (including, without limitation, for any expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent in
connection with any dispute between the Administrative Agent and any Lender or between two or more
of the Lenders) and (iii) for any liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions,
judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever that may be
imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or
arising out of the Loan Documents or any other document delivered in connection therewith or the
transactions contemplated thereby (including, without limitation, for any such amounts incurred by
or asserted against the Administrative Agent in connection with any dispute between the
Administrative Agent and any Lender or between two or more of the Lenders), or the enforcement of
any of the terms of the Loan Documents or of any such other documents, provided that (i) no Lender
shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent any of the foregoing is found in a final
non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent and (ii) any indemnification required
pursuant to Section 3.5(vii) shall, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section, be paid by the
relevant Lender in accordance with the provisions thereof. The obligations of the Lenders under
this Section shall survive payment of the Obligations and termination of this Agreement.

10.9. Notice of Event of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to
have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder unless the
Administrative Agent has received written notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this
Agreement describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of
default.” In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give
prompt notice thereof to the Lenders; provided that, except as expressly set forth in the Loan
Documents, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the
failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is
communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in
any capacity.

 

89

 

10.10. Rights as a Lender. In the event the Administrative Agent is a Lender, the
Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder and under any other Loan
Document with respect to its Commitment and its Loans as any Lender and may exercise the same as
though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, at any time
when the Administrative Agent is a Lender, unless the context otherwise requires, include the
Administrative Agent in its individual capacity. The Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may
accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of trust, debt, equity or
other transaction, in addition to those contemplated by this Agreement or any other Loan Document,
with the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries in which the Borrower or such Subsidiary is not
restricted hereby from engaging with any other Person.

10.11. Lender Credit Decision, Legal Representation.

(a) Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the
Administrative Agent, the Arranger or any other Lender and based on the financial statements
prepared by the Borrower and such other documents and information as it has deemed
appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without
reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Arranger or any other Lender and based on such
documents and information as it deems appropriate at the time, continue to make its own
credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents. Except for any notice, report, document or other information expressly required
to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent or Arranger hereunder, neither
the Administrative Agent nor the Arranger shall have any duty or responsibility (either
initially or on a continuing basis) to provide any Lender with any notice, report, document,
credit information or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition or
business of the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that may come into the possession of the
Administrative Agent or Arranger (whether or not in their respective capacity as
Administrative Agent or Arranger) or any of their Affiliates.

(b) Each Lender further acknowledges that it has had the opportunity to be represented
by legal counsel in connection with its execution of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents, that it has made its own evaluation of all applicable laws and regulations
relating to the transactions contemplated hereby and that the counsel to the Administrative
Agent represents only the Administrative Agent and not the Lenders in connection with this
Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

 

90

 

10.12. Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign at any
time by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower, such resignation to be
effective upon the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent or, if no successor
Administrative Agent has been appointed, forty-five days after the retiring Administrative Agent
gives notice of its intention to resign. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required
Lenders shall have the right to appoint, on behalf of the Borrower and the Lenders, a successor
Administrative Agent. If no successor Administrative Agent is so appointed by the Required Lenders
within thirty days after the resigning Administrative Agent’s giving notice of its intention to
resign, then the resigning Administrative Agent may appoint, on behalf of the Borrower and the
Lenders, a successor Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, the
Administrative Agent may at any time without the consent of the Borrower or any Lender appoint any
of its Affiliates that is a commercial bank as a successor Administrative Agent hereunder. If the
Administrative Agent has resigned or been removed and no successor Administrative Agent has been
appointed, the Lenders may perform all the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder and the
Borrower shall make all payments in respect of the Obligations to the applicable Lender and for all
other purposes shall deal directly with the Lenders. No successor Administrative Agent shall be
deemed to be appointed hereunder until such successor Administrative Agent has accepted the
appointment. Any such successor Administrative Agent shall be a commercial bank having capital and
retained earnings of at least $100,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as
Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative
Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and
duties of the resigning or removed Administrative Agent. Upon the effectiveness of the resignation
of the Administrative Agent, the resigning Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties
and obligations hereunder and under the Loan Documents. After the effectiveness of the resignation
of an Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article X shall continue in effect for the
benefit of such Administrative Agent in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it
while it was acting as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.

10.13. Administrative Agent and Arranger Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the
Administrative Agent and the Arranger, for their respective accounts, the fees agreed to by the
Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Arranger pursuant to the U.S. Bank Fee Letter, or as
otherwise agreed from time to time.

10.14. Delegation to Affiliates. The Borrower and the Lenders agree that the
Administrative Agent may delegate any of its duties under this Agreement to any of its Affiliates.
Any such Affiliate (and such Affiliate’s directors, officers, agents and employees) that performs
duties in connection with this Agreement shall be entitled to the same benefits of the
indemnification, waiver and other protective provisions to which the Administrative Agent is
entitled under Articles IX and X.

10.15. Execution of Collateral Documents. The Lenders hereby empower and authorize the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver to
the Borrower on their behalf the Collateral Documents, all related financing statements and any
financing statements, agreements, documents or instruments that are necessary or appropriate to
effect the purposes of the Collateral Documents.

10.16. Collateral Releases. The Lenders hereby empower and authorize the
Administrative Agent to execute and deliver to the Borrower on their behalf any agreements,
documents or instruments that are necessary or appropriate to effect any releases of Collateral
that (a) does not have a fair market value in excess of $1,000,000 individually or in the aggregate
in any fiscal year, or (b) all of the Lenders (other than any Defaulting Lender) have approved in
writing by the terms hereof or of any other Loan Document or otherwise.

 

91

 

ARTICLE XI

SETOFF; RATABLE PAYMENTS

11.1. Setoff. The Borrower hereby grants each Lender a security interest in all
deposits, credits and deposit accounts (including all account balances, whether provisional or
final and whether or not collected or available) of the Borrower with such Lender or any Affiliate
of such Lender (the “Deposits”). In addition to, and without limitation of, any rights of the
Lenders under applicable law, if the Borrower becomes insolvent, however evidenced or defined, or
any Event of Default occurs, the Borrower authorizes each Lender to offset and apply all such
Deposits toward the payment of the Obligations owing to such Lender, whether or not the
Obligations, or any part thereof, are then due and regardless of the existence or adequacy of any
collateral, guaranty or any other security, right or remedy available to any Lender.

11.2. Ratable Payments. If any Lender, whether by setoff or otherwise, has payment
made to it upon its Outstanding Credit Exposure (other than payments received pursuant to Section
3.1, 3.2, 3.4 or 3.5) in a greater proportion than that received by any other Lender, such Lender
agrees, promptly upon demand, to purchase a portion of the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure
held by the other Lenders so that after such purchase each Lender will hold its Pro Rata Share of
the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure. If any Lender, whether in connection with setoff or
amounts that might be subject to setoff or otherwise, receives collateral or other protection for
its Obligations or such amounts that may be subject to setoff, such Lender agrees, promptly upon
demand, to take such action necessary such that all Lenders share in the benefits of such
collateral ratably in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Shares of the Aggregate Outstanding
Credit Exposure. In case any such payment is disturbed by legal process, or otherwise, the Lenders
agree to make appropriate further adjustments.

ARTICLE XII

BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT; ASSIGNMENTS; PARTICIPATIONS

12.1. Successors and Assigns. The terms and provisions of the Loan Documents shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower and the Lenders and their respective
successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) the Borrower shall not have the right to
assign its rights or obligations under the Loan Documents without the prior written consent of each
Lender, (ii) any assignment by any Lender must be made in compliance with Section 12.3, and (iii)
any transfer by Participation must be made in compliance with Section 12.2. Any attempted
assignment or transfer by any party not made in compliance with this Section shall be null and
void, unless such attempted assignment or transfer is treated as a participation in accordance with
Section 12.3.2. The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that clause (ii) of this Section relates
only to absolute assignments and this Section does not prohibit assignments creating security
interests, including, without limitation, (x) any pledge or assignment by any Lender of all or any
portion of its rights under this Agreement and any Note to a Federal Reserve Bank or (y) in the
case of a Lender that is a Fund, any pledge or assignment of all or any portion of its rights under
this Agreement and any Note to its trustee in support of its obligations to its trustee; provided,
however, that no such pledge or assignment creating a security interest shall release the
transferor Lender from its obligations hereunder unless and until the parties thereto have complied
with the provisions of Section 12.3. The Administrative Agent may treat the Person that made any
Loan or that holds any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until such
Person complies with Section 12.3; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent may in its
discretion (but shall not be required to) follow instructions from the Person that made any Loan or
that holds any Note to direct payments relating to such Loan or Note to another Person. Any
assignee of the rights to any Loan or any Note agrees by acceptance of such assignment to be bound
by all the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents. Any request, authority or consent of any
Person that at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent is the owner of
the rights to any Loan (whether or not a Note has been issued in evidence thereof) shall be
conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder or assignee of the rights to such Loan.

 

92

 

12.2. Participations.

12.2.1 Permitted Participants; Effect. Any Lender may at any time sell to one
or more banks or other entities (“Participants”) participating interests in any Outstanding
Credit Exposure owing to such Lender, any Note held by such Lender, any Commitment of such
Lender or any other interest of such Lender under the Loan Documents; provided, however,
that, if no Event of Default is continuing, such sale shall be subject to the consent of the
Borrower, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. In the event of any
such sale by a Lender of participating interests to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations
under the Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible
to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, such Lender shall
remain the owner of its Outstanding Credit Exposure and the holder of any Note issued to it
in evidence thereof for all purposes under the Loan Documents, all amounts payable by the Borrower under this Agreement shall be determined
as if such Lender had not sold such participating interests and the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in
connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents.

12.2.2 Voting Rights. Each Lender shall retain the sole right to approve,
without the consent of any Participant, any amendment, modification or waiver of any
provision of the Loan Documents other than any amendment, modification or waiver with
respect to any Outstanding Credit Exposure or Commitment in which such Participant has an
interest that would require consent of all of the Lenders pursuant to the terms of Section
8.2 or of any other Loan Document.

12.2.3 Benefit of Certain Provisions. The Borrower agrees that each
Participant shall be deemed to have the right of setoff provided in Section 11.1 in respect
of its participating interest in amounts owing under the Loan Documents to the same extent
as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under
the Loan Documents, provided that each Lender shall retain the right of setoff provided in
Section 11.1 with respect to the amount of participating interests sold to each Participant.
The Lenders agree to share with each Participant, and each Participant, by exercising the
right of setoff provided in Section 11.1, agrees to share with each Lender, any amount
received pursuant to the exercise of its right of setoff, such amounts to be shared in
accordance with Section 11.2 as if each Participant were a Lender. The Borrower further
agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.4,
3.5, 9.6 and 9.10 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by
assignment pursuant to Section 12.3, provided that (i) a Participant shall not be entitled
to receive any greater payment under Section 3.1, 3.2 or 3.5 than the Lender who sold the
participating interest to such Participant would have received had it retained such interest
for its own account, unless the sale of such interest to such Participant is made with the
prior written consent of the Borrower, and (ii) any Participant not incorporated under the
laws of the United States of America or any State thereof agrees to comply with the
provisions of Section 3.5 to the same extent as if it were a Lender.

12.3. Assignments.

12.3.1 Permitted Assignments. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more
Eligible Assignees (“Purchasers”) all or any part of its rights and obligations under the
Loan Documents. Such assignment shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit B or in such
other form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent as agreed to by the parties
thereto. Each assignment to a Purchaser that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or
an Approved Fund shall either be in an amount equal to the entire applicable Commitment and
Outstanding Credit Exposure of the assigning Lender or (unless each of the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent otherwise consents) be in an aggregate amount not less than $5,000,000.
The amount of the assignment shall be based on the Commitment or Outstanding Credit
Exposure (if the Commitment has been terminated) subject to the assignment, determined as of
the date of such assignment or as of the “Trade Date,” if the “Trade Date” is specified in
the assignment.

12.3.2 Consents. The consent of the Borrower shall be required prior to an
assignment becoming effective unless the Purchaser is a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or
an Approved Fund, provided that the consent of the Borrower shall not be required if an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. The consent of the Administrative Agent
shall be required prior to an assignment becoming effective unless the Purchaser is a
Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund. The consent of the LC Issuer shall be
required prior to an assignment of a Commitment becoming effective unless the Purchaser is a
Lender with a Commitment. Any consent required under this Section shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed.

12.3.3 Effect; Effective Date. Upon (i) delivery to the Administrative Agent
of an assignment, together with any consents required by Sections 12.3.1 and 12.3.2, and
(ii) payment of a $3,500 fee to the Administrative Agent for processing such assignment
(unless the Administrative Agent waives such fee), such assignment shall become effective on
the effective date specified in such assignment. The assignment shall contain a
representation by the Purchaser to the effect that none of the consideration used to make
the purchase of the Commitment and Outstanding Credit Exposure under the applicable
assignment agreement constitutes “plan assets” as defined under ERISA and that the rights
and interests of the Purchaser in and under the Loan Documents will not be “plan assets”
under ERISA. On and after the effective date of such assignment, such Purchaser shall for
all purposes be a Lender party to this Agreement and any other Loan Document executed by or
on behalf of the Lenders and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Lender under the
Loan Documents, to the same extent as if it were an original party thereto, and the
transferor Lender shall be released with respect to the Commitment and Outstanding Credit
Exposure assigned to such Purchaser without any further consent or action by the Borrower,
the Lenders or the Administrative Agent. In the case of an 

 

94

 

assignment covering all of the
assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to
be a Lender hereunder but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of, and subject to,
those provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that survive payment of the
Obligations and termination of the applicable agreement. Any assignment or transfer by a
Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section
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 Section 12.2. Upon the consummation of
any assignment to a Purchaser pursuant to this Section, the transferor Lender, the
Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall, if the transferor Lender or the Purchaser
desires that its Loans be evidenced by Notes, make appropriate arrangements so that new
Notes or, as appropriate, replacement Notes are issued to such transferor Lender and new
Notes or, as appropriate, replacement Notes, are issued to such Purchaser, in each case in
principal amounts reflecting their respective Commitments, as adjusted pursuant to such
assignment.

12.3.4 Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as
an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in the United States of
America a copy of each assignment agreement delivered to it and a register for the
recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, the Commitments of and principal
amounts of the Loans owing to each Lender, and participations of each Lender in Facility
LCs, 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 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 at any
reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

12.4. Dissemination of Information. The Borrower authorizes each Lender to disclose
to any Participant, Purchaser, other Person acquiring an interest in the Loan Documents by
operation of law (each a “Transferee”) and prospective Transferee any and all information in such
Lender’s possession concerning the creditworthiness of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, including
without limitation any information contained in any Reports; provided that each Transferee and
prospective Transferee agrees to be bound by Section 9.11 of this Agreement.

12.5. Tax Treatment. If any interest in any Loan Document is transferred to any
Transferee that is not incorporated under the laws of the United States or any State thereof, the
transferor Lender shall cause such Transferee, concurrently with the effectiveness of such
transfer, to comply with the provisions of Section 3.5(iv).

Exhibit 10.1

FIRST AMENDMENT TO AGREEMENT FOR GUARANTEED MAXIMUM

PRICE CONSTRUCTION SERVICES

This First Amendment to the Agreement for Guaranteed Maximum Price Construction Services is dated
as of May 26, 2011, and is by and between PNK (Baton Rouge) Partnership (“Owner”) and Manhattan
Construction Company (“Contractor”).

WHEREAS, on March 30, 2010, Owner and Contractor entered into an Agreement for Guaranteed Maximum
Price Construction Services (the “Agreement”); and

WHEREAS, the parties now desire to amend the Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged,
the parties agree to amend the Agreement as follows:

1. Section 15.1 Owner Controlled Insurance Program shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced
with the following:

15.1 Insurance Coverages

15.1.1. Contractor shall purchase and maintain, at its own expense, with insurers
acceptable to Owner, at least the following minimum coverages at all times during the term
of this Agreement, as provided herein, thereafter.

(a) Workers’ compensation insurance (statutory limits complying with the laws of
the State of Louisiana) and employer’s liability insurance with limits not less
than $1,000,000 bodily injury by accident (each accident), $1,000,000 bodily injury
by disease (policy limit), and $1,000,000 bodily injury by disease (each employee).
Such policies shall contain a waiver of subrogation in favor of Owner. Such
insurance shall be in strict accordance with the applicable workers’ compensation
laws in effect during performance by Contractor pursuant to this Agreement or
during performance by any supplier or sub-subcontractor.

 

 

 

(b) Commercial general liability insurance, written on an occurrence policy form
(“modified occurrence” and “claims-made” are not acceptable), including
premises-operations (including explosion, collapse and underground coverage) and
products-completed operations coverage, with limits of not less $1,000,000 bodily
injury and property damage per occurrence limit, $3,000,000
general aggregate limit (with a “per project” endorsement specifying the Project),
$1,000,000 personal injury and advertising limit, and $3,000,000 products-completed
operations aggregate limit, and with deductibles or self-insured retentions
acceptable to Owner. All commercial general liability policies shall provide,
without limitation, severability of interests (full separation of insureds),
contractual liability coverage (including coverage to the maximum extent
reasonably obtainable for the indemnification contained in this Agreement), broad
form property damage coverage (including completed operations) and a duty to defend
in addition to (without reducing) the limits of the policy(ies). Contractor shall
maintain continuous coverage for the commercial general liability insurance
required hereunder during the term of this Agreement and for at least two (2) years
beyond the completion or termination of the Contractor’s work hereunder, or
completion of the Project, whichever is later.

(c) Commercial automobile liability insurance, including, without limitation,
liability arising out of all owned, non-owned, leased, and hired automobiles,
trucks and trailers, or semi-trailers, including any machinery or apparatus
attached thereto, with limits not less than $1,000,000 each accident, or limits
carried, whichever is greater, with deductibles or self-insured retentions
acceptable to Owner. The commercial automobile liability insurance shall be written
on the most recent edition of ISO form CA 00 01 or equivalent acceptable to Owner
and shall include, without limitation, contractual liability coverage and insured
status for Owner. Contractor waives all rights against Owner for recovery of loss,
injury and/or damages to the extent such loss, injury and/or damages are covered by
the commercial automobile liability insurance maintained by Contractor.

(d) Professional Liability (Errors and Omissions) Insurance. Such insurance shall
include prior acts coverage and shall have limits sufficient to cover claims
arising out of all such work and/or services, with limits not less than $2,000,000
per claim and $5,000,000 annual aggregate, and with deductibles or self-insured
retentions acceptable to Owner. Such insurance shall include without limitation
contractual liability coverage to the maximum extent contained in this Agreement.
This insurance shall be maintained by Contractor continuously in effect during the
term of this Agreement and at least two (2) years beyond completion or termination
of the Services or completion of the Project, whichever is later.

 

 

 

With respect to the coverage required in subsection (d) above, If Contractor
maintains higher limits than those required by this addendum, then those higher
limits shall apply.

15.1.2. Contractor shall require insurance of subcontractors commiserate with the risk of
their work, but in no event less than the limits set forth on the attached Exhibit “A”.

15.1.3 Owner, and such other persons and entities as may from time to time be designated by
Owner in writing, shall be named as additional insureds under the general liability insurance
required above (including umbrella/excess policies) by both ISO Form CG 20 10 10 01 and CG 20 37 10
01 additional insured endorsement, or equivalent acceptable to Owner, and as additional insureds
under the commercial automobile liability insurance required above, by policy provision or
additional insured endorsement acceptable to Owner. These additional insured endorsements shall
contain a primary insurance clause stating: “It is further agreed that such insurance as is
afforded by this policy for the benefit of the additional insureds shall be primary insurance, and
any insurance maintained by the additional insureds shall be excess and non- contributory with the
insurance provided hereunder”. The coverage provided to the additional insureds must be at least as
broad as that provided to Contractor and may not contain any additional exclusionary language or
limitations applicable to the additional insureds. Contractor shall maintain such additional
insured status for the referenced parties on the general liability and umbrella/excess liability
policies continuously during the term of this Agreement and at least six (6) years beyond the
completion or termination of the Work hereunder or completion of the Project, whichever is later.

15.1.4. All workers’ compensation/employer’s liability and automobile liability policies
maintained by Contractor shall be endorsed to be primary coverage, and any coverage carried by
Owner shall be excess and non-contributory.

15.1.5 Contractor shall also maintain umbrella and/or excess liability coverage, written on
an occurrence policy form (“modified occurrence” and “claims made” forms are not acceptable), at
least as broad as the primary general liability insurance, with limits not less than $100,000,000
per occurrence/annual aggregate.

 

 

 

15.1.6. Prior to commencing the Services, Contractor shall deliver to Owner the
endorsements and waivers of subrogation referred to herein, as well as certificates of insurance
evidencing the coverages referred to herein. Promptly upon Owner’s request, Contractor shall
deliver to Owner a copy of any and all of the insurance policies and other insurance documents
required herein. In the case of policies expiring while any work
or services are in progress, a renewal certificate with all applicable endorsements must be
received at the business office of Owner prior to the expiration of the existing policy or
policies. Permitting Contractor to start any work or services, or continue any work or services,
or releasing any progress payment prior to compliance with these requirements shall not constitute
a waiver thereof. If at any time the Contractor’s insurance fails to meet the requirements stated
herein all payments may be held until the deficiency has been resolved. Each certificate and
endorsement must have an original signature by an authorized agent of the respective insurers.
Rubber stamped signatures will not be accepted. All certificates of insurance must provide Owner
with thirty (30) days advance written notice of cancellation, intent to non-renew, or adverse
material change in or reduction of coverage. The following wording from the cancellation provision
of all said certificates shall be lined through and initialled by an authorized agent of each
insurer:

“CANCELLATION: SHOULD ANY OF THE ABOVE DESCRIBED POLICIES BE CANCELLED BEFORE THE
EXPIRATION DATE THEREOF, THE ISSUING COMPANY WILL MAIL 30 DAYS NOTICE TO THE CERTIFICATE
HOLDER NAMED TO THE LEFT.”

15.1.7. Owner reserves the right to require (1) higher limits and (2) additional
insurance coverages if Owner determines in its sole discretion that such higher limits
and/or additional coverages are reasonably necessary for the protection of Owner. Such
additional coverages shall be in form and with limits of liability, additional insured
endorsements, and deductibles or self-insured retentions acceptable to Owner. Contractor
and Subcontractor(s) shall be reimbursed for any additional costs associated with the
Owner’s request for higher limits and additional insurance coverages.

15.1.8. All insurance referred to herein to be maintained by Contractor or any
subcontractor shall be maintained by Contractor at its sole expense, with insurance carriers
qualified to do business in Louisiana and having a rating of not less than A:Vlll from A.M. Best &
Co., unless Owner, in writing, in its sole discretion, accepts a lower Best’s rating.

15.1.9. In the event Contractor fails to secure or maintain any policy of insurance
required hereby, Owner at its sole discretion and election, may (i) secure such policy of insurance
in the name of and for the account of Contractor and in such event, Contractor shall reimburse
Owner upon demand for the cost thereof; or (ii) terminate this Agreement, and Owner shall retain
all remedies hereunder for breach of this Agreement. Owner shall have the right to offset the costs
of any such insurance, including but
not limited to premiums, against any sums payable to Contractor under this Agreement.

 

 

 

15.1.10. None of the requirements contained herein as to types, limits and approval of
insurance coverage to be maintained by Contractor (or any subcontractor) are intended to, and shall
not in any manner, limit or qualify the liabilities and obligations assumed by Contractor under
this Agreement or at law, including, without limitation, Contractor’s indemnification obligations
and liability in excess of the limits of the coverages required herein. Neither receipt of
certificates showing less or different coverage than requested, nor any other forbearance or
omission by Owner shall be deemed a waiver of, or estoppel to assert, any right or obligation
regarding the insurance requirements herein. Contractor shall be solely responsible to pay any loss
amount that lies within the deductible(s) or self-insured retention(s) of Contractor’s policies, up
to the maximum amount of the deductible(s) or self-insured retention(s).

15.1.11. None of the requirements contained herein shall relieve Contractor, and its
subcontractors of any tier, of their respective obligations to exercise due care in the performance
of their duties in connection with the work or to complete the work in strict compliance with this
Agreement.

15.1.12. Consistent with the provisions of Paragraph 15.1.14 below, Owner and Contractor
shall cause their insurance carriers to waive subrogation against the other party. Contractor shall
require the same waivers from all subcontractors, consultants and suppliers, and from the insurers
issuing property insurance policies relating to the work or the Project. The waivers of
subrogation referred to in this Section shall be effective as to any individual or entity even if
such individual or entity (a) would otherwise have a duty of indemnification, contractual or
otherwise, (b) did not pay the insurance premium, directly or indirectly, and (c) whether or not
such individual or entity has an insurable interest in the property which is the subject of the
loss or damage. In the event a party’s obligation to name the other as an additional insured is
determined to unenforceable and such determination prevents said party from fulfilling the
obligations set forth in this paragraph, the party’s failure to fulfil such obligation shall not be
deemed a violation of this Agreement.

 

 

 

15.1.13 Owner shall obtain Builder’s Risk insurance, written on an “all risk” basis, providing
coverage at one hundred percent replacement cost for all materials and equipment permanently
incorporated into the buildings and structures forming a part of the Work and all materials and
equipment on or about the Project site intended for permanent incorporation into said buildings and
structures. The Builder’s Risk
insurance shall provide coverage for Owner, Contractor, and all Subcontractors of any tier
performing a portion of the Work on the Project. Such coverage shall exclude machinery, tools and
equipment owned or procured by the Contractor and its Subcontractors in the performance of the
Work. For each covered loss caused by Contractor (or its Subcontractors), Contractor shall pay the
first Twenty Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000.00) of each such loss.

15.1.14 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, to the extent any of the additional
insured requirements contained herein are construed to violate any Louisiana legislation, the
additional insured requirements and specified endorsements shall be modified or otherwise
interpreted, to the extent possible, to provide for the broadest permissible coverage, but in no
event shall they be modified or interpreted to be broader than the coverage provided by the
required endorsements. Contractor shall not be deemed to have violated the insurance requirements
if it provides the required additional insured endorsements and the coverage provided by those
endorsements is later determined to be partially or totally violative of Louisiana law. Any similar
requirements for additional insured protection from subcontractors shall likewise be limited to the
same extent.

2. All other terms and conditions of the Agreement not amended herein shall remain in full force
and effect.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this First Amendment to the Agreement for
Guaranteed Maximum Price Construction Services to be executed as of the date first set forth above.
