          and

     BAKERS FOOTWEAR GROUP, INC., f/k/a Weiss and Neuman Shoe Co. (the “Borrower”), a Missouri
corporation with its principal executive offices at 2815 Scott Avenue, Suite C, St. Louis,

in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and benefits to be derived herefrom,

RECITALS:

     A. Reference is made to that certain Second Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement
(as amended to date, the “Loan Agreement”) dated as of August 31, 2006 between the Borrower and the
Lender.

     B. The Borrower and the Lender have agreed to amend the Loan Agreement on the terms and
conditions set forth herein.

Accordingly, the Borrower and the Lender agree as follows:

1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have
the meanings assigned to such terms in the Loan Agreement.

2. Amendments To Loan Agreement.

     2.1 The definition of “Subordinated Debentures” is hereby deleted in its entirety and the
following substituted in its stead:

“Subordinated Debentures”. Those certain Subordinated Convertible Debentures issued by the
Borrower on June 26, 2007, in the aggregate face amount of $4,000,000, as amended by that

 

 

certain First Amendment to Subordinated Convertible Debentures and Subordinated Convertible
Debenture Purchase Agreement dated as of April 20, 2010 and that certain Second Amendment to
Subordinated Convertible Debentures and Subordinated Convertible Debenture Purchase
Agreement dated as of June 30, 2011.

     2.2 The following new definitions are hereby added to the Credit Agreement in appropriate
alphabetical order:

“Subordinated Debenture 2012 Required Payment”. A payment of principal required to be made
by the Borrower pursuant to the Subordinated Debentures in the amount of $1,000,000, which
payment is due on June 30, 2012.

“Subordinated Debenture Payment Conditions”. No Suspension Event has occurred and is
continuing, and the ratio of the Borrower’s EBITDA (calculated as set forth in Exhibit
5.11(a)(ii)) to its Interest Expense, as calculated on a trailing twelve month basis for the
period ending May 26, 2012, is equal to or greater than 1.0:1.0.

     2.3 Section 4.28 of the Loan Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and the following
substituted in its stead:

“4.28 Subordinated Debentures. The Borrower shall not make any principal payments on account
of the Subordinated Debentures; provided that, if the Subordinated Debenture Payment
Conditions have been met, then the Borrower may make the Subordinated Debenture 2012
Required Payment.

     2.4 Exhibit 5.11(a) of the Loan Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and the following
is substituted in its stead:

“(i) The Borrower shall at all times maintain Availability of not less than the greater of
(i) $1,500,000, and (ii) ten percent (10%) of the following: Borrowing Base less
Availability Reserves.

(ii) If, at any time, the Borrower’s Availability is less than twenty percent (20%) of the
Borrowing Base, then the ratio of the Borrower’s EBITDA to its Interest Expense, tested
monthly and each calculated on a trailing twelve month basis, shall be equal to or greater
than 1.0:1.0. For purposes of such calculation, “EBITDA” means with respect to any fiscal
period, Borrower’s and its subsidiaries’ (for the portion of such fiscal period during which

income tax expense, (iv) depreciation and amortization, (v) noncash impairment of long-lived
assets, noncash losses on disposal of property and equipment, and (vi) noncash stock-based
compensation expense, in each case, as determined in accordance with GAAP. For purposes of
this ratio, “Interest Expense” means with respect to any fiscal period, interest expense as
determined in accordance with GAAP minus noncash accretion of debt discount included in
interest expense.”

Agreement dated as of even date herewith among the Borrower, the Lender and the Subordinated
Creditors party thereto, Lender hereby consents to the terms of that certain Second Amendment to

2

counterclaim, off set, or defense (or other right, remedy, or basis having a similar effect)

or with respect to the commitment fees payable hereunder, as the case may be, the applicable rate
per annum set forth below under the caption “ABR Spread”, “Eurodollar Spread” or

	Category 3:

different Categories, the Applicable Rate shall be based on the higher of the two ratings unless

changed (other than as a result of a change in the rating system of Moody’s or S&P), such change

2

 

change in the Applicable Rate shall apply during the period commencing on the effective date
of such change and ending on the date immediately preceding the effective date of the next such
change. If the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall determine that the rating system of
Moody’s or S&P shall have changed, or if such rating agencies shall cease to be in the business of
rating corporate debt obligations, the Borrower and the Lenders shall negotiate in good faith to
amend this definition to reflect such changed rating system or the unavailability of ratings from
such rating agencies and, pending the effectiveness of any such amendment, the Applicable Rate
shall be determined by reference to the rating most recently in effect prior to such change or

approval of, or acquiescence in, any such proceeding or appointment, provided that a
Bankruptcy Event shall not result solely by virtue of any ownership interest, or the acquisition of
any ownership interest, in such Person by a Governmental Authority or instrumentality thereof,
provided, further, that such ownership interest does not result in or provide such
Person with immunity from the jurisdiction of courts within the United States or from the

each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction
whatsoever. Each Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire

23

 

transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.07 with
respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.07 shall apply, mutatis
mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall
promptly pay to the Swingline Lenders, ratably as between them, the amounts so received by it from
the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of any participations in any
Swingline Loans acquired pursuant to this paragraph, and thereafter payments in respect of such
Swingline Loans shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the Swingline Lenders. Any
amounts received by the Swingline Lenders from the Borrower (or other party on behalf of the
Borrower) in respect of Swingline Loans after receipt by the Swingline Lenders of the proceeds of
a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent; any such
amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative
Agent to the Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the
Swingline Lenders, as their interests may appear; provided that any such payment so
remitted shall be repaid to the Swingline Lenders or to the Administrative Agent, as applicable,
if and to the extent such payment is required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. The
purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the
Borrower of any default in the payment thereof.

          SECTION 2.06. [Reserved].

          SECTION 2.07. Funding of Loans. (a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by
it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 12:00
noon, New York City time, or, if later in the case of an ABR Borrowing, 60 minutes after the
Administrative Agent advises such Lender pursuant to the last sentence of Section 2.03, of the
details of a Borrowing Request made by the Borrower to the account of the Administrative Agent most
recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders; provided that
Swingline Loans shall be made as provided in Section 2.05. The Administrative Agent will make such
Loans available to the Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an
account of the Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent in New York City or such other
account of the Borrower designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request.

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

24

 

          SECTION 2.08. Interest Elections. (a) Each Revolving Borrowing initially shall be of
the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurodollar Revolving
Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request.
Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue
such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods
therefor, all as provided in this Section. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to
different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated
ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising
each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. This Section shall not apply to
Swingline Borrowings, which may not be converted or continued.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

25

 

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

          SECTION 2.09. Termination and Reduction of Commitments. (a) Unless previously
terminated, the Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date.

          (b) The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Commitments;
provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments shall be in an amount equal to
$1,000,000, or a whole multiple thereof and (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the
Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with
Section 2.11, the sum of the Revolving Credit Exposures would exceed the total Commitments.

          (c) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce
the Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section at least three (3) Business Days prior to the
effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date
thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the
Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section
shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Commitments delivered
by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit
facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the
Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not
satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of
the Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective
Commitments.

          SECTION 2.10. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) The Borrower hereby
unconditionally promises to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the
then unpaid principal amount of the Revolving Loans on the Maturity Date and (ii) to the Swingline
Lenders the then unpaid principal amount of the Swingline Loans on the earlier of the Maturity Date
and the first date after any Swingline Loans are made that is the 15th or last day of a calendar
month and is at least two (2) Business Days after such Swingline Loans are made; provided
that on each date that a Revolving Borrowing is made, the Borrower shall repay all Swingline Loans
then outstanding.

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

26

 

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

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

          (e) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such
event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to
the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered
assigns) and in a form approved by the Administrative Agent. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by
such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant
to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the order
of the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and
its registered assigns).

          SECTION 2.11. Prepayment of Loans. (a) The Borrower shall have the right at any time
and from time to time up to 3:00 p.m., New York City time on any Business Day to prepay any Loan in
whole or in part, subject to prior notice in accordance with paragraph (b) of this Section;
provided that interest will accrue on such amount being prepaid until the next business day
if such payment is received after 3:00 p.m., New York City time.

          (b) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a
Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lenders) by telephone (confirmed by electronic communication or
facsimile) of any prepayment hereunder not later than 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date
of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and
the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that, if
a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the
Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.09, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such
notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.09. Promptly following receipt of
any such notice relating to a Revolving Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the
Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Revolving Borrowing shall be in
an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Revolving Borrowing of the same
Type as provided in Section 2.02. Each prepayment of a Revolving Borrowing shall be applied
ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by
accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.13.

          SECTION 2.12. Fees. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for
the account of each Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the daily
amount of the unused Commitment of such Lender during the period from and

27

 

including the Effective Date to but excluding the date on which such Commitment terminates.
Accrued commitment fees shall be payable in arrears on the last day of March, June, September and
December of each year and on the date on which the Commitments terminate, commencing on the first
such date to occur after the date hereof; provided that any commitment fees accruing after
the date on which the Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. All commitment fees shall
be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days
elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

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

          (c) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available
funds, to the Administrative Agent for distribution, in the case of commitment fees, to the
Lenders. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

          SECTION 2.13. Interest. (a) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing (including each
Swingline Loan) shall bear interest at the ABR plus the Applicable Rate.

          (b) The Loans comprising each Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear interest (i) in the case of a
Eurodollar Revolving Loan, at the Eurodollar Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such
Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate.

          (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or
other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity,
upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before
judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2% plus
the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this
Section or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2% plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans as
provided in paragraph (a) of this Section.

          (d) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date
for such Loan and, in the case of Revolving Loans, upon termination of the Commitments;
provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be
payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a
prepayment of an ABR Revolving Loan prior to the end of the Availability Period), accrued interest
on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or
prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of the
current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective
date of such conversion.

          (e) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that
interest computed by reference to the ABR at times when the ABR is based on the Prime Rate shall
be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case
shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the
last day). The applicable ABR or Eurodollar Rate shall be

28

 

determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent
manifest error.

          SECTION 2.14. Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of any
Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing:

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

          (b) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Eurodollar Rate for
such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender)
of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for such Interest
Period;

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by
telephone or electronic communication or facsimile as promptly as practicable thereafter and,
until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving
rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the
conversion of any Revolving Borrowing to, or continuation of any Revolving Borrowing as, a
Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurodollar
Revolving Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing; provided that if
the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one Type of Borrowings, then the other
Type of Borrowings shall be permitted.

          SECTION 2.15. Increased Costs. (a) If any Change in Law shall:

     (i) subject any Lender to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes and (B) Other
Connection Taxes on gross or net income, profits or revenue (including value-added or
similar Taxes)) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other
obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto;

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

     (iii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition affecting
this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender or participation therein;

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

29

 

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

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

          (d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this
Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation;
provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this
Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that
such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or
reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided
further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is
retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of
retroactive effect thereof.

          SECTION 2.16. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any
principal of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable
thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default or as a result of any prepayment pursuant to
Section 2.11), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest
Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurodollar
Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such
notice may be revoked under Section 2.11(b) and is revoked in accordance therewith) or (d) the
assignment of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable
thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.19, then, in any such event,
the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such
event. In the case of a Eurodollar Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed
to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of
interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred,
at the Eurodollar Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date
of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a
failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for
such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such
period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such
period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar
market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is
entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to

30

 

the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such
Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

          SECTION 2.17. Taxes. (a) Each payment by any Credit Party under any Credit Document
shall be made without withholding for any Taxes, unless such withholding is required by any law.
If any Withholding Agent determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it is so
required to withhold Taxes, then such Withholding Agent may so withhold and shall timely pay the
full amount of withheld Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable
law. If such Taxes are Indemnified Taxes, then the amount payable by such Credit Party shall be
increased as necessary so that, net of such withholding (including such withholding applicable to
additional amounts payable under this Section), the applicable Recipient receives the amount it
would have received had no such withholding been made.

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

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

          (d) The Credit Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient for any
Indemnified Taxes that are paid or payable by such Recipient in connection with any Credit
Document (including amounts paid or payable under this Section 2.17(d)) and any reasonable
expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were
correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. The indemnity
under this Section 2.17(d) shall be paid within twenty (20) days after the Recipient delivers to
any Credit Party a certificate stating the amount of any Indemnified Taxes so paid or payable by
such Recipient and describing the basis for the indemnification claim. Such certificate shall be
conclusive of the amount so paid or payable absent manifest error. Such Recipient shall deliver a
copy of such certificate to the Administrative Agent.

          (e) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent for any Taxes (but, in the
case of any Indemnified Taxes, only to the extent that any Credit Party has not already
indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the
obligation of the Credit Parties to do so) attributable to such Lender that are paid or payable by
the Administrative Agent in connection with any Credit Document and any reasonable expenses
arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally
imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. The indemnity under this Section
2.17(e) shall be paid within twenty (20) days after the Administrative Agent delivers to the
applicable Lender a certificate stating the amount of Taxes so paid or payable by the
Administrative Agent. Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so paid or payable
absent manifest error.

          (f) (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from, or reduction of, any applicable
withholding Tax with respect to any payments under any Credit Document shall

31

 

deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably
requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed
documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such
payments to be made without, or at a reduced rate of, withholding. In addition, any Lender, if
requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation
prescribed by law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will
enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject
to any withholding (including backup withholding) or information reporting requirements.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution
and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Sections
2.17(f)(ii)(A) through (E) and Section 2.17(f)(iii) below) shall not be required if in the
Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to
any material unreimbursed cost or expense (or, in the case of a Change in Law, any incremental
material unreimbursed cost or expense) or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial
position of such Lender. Upon the reasonable request of such Borrower or the Administrative
Agent, any Lender shall update any form or certification previously delivered pursuant to this
Section 2.17(f). If any form or certification previously delivered pursuant to this Section
expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect with respect to a Lender, such Lender
shall promptly (and in any event within 10 days after such expiration, obsolescence or inaccuracy)
notify such Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of such expiration, obsolescence or
inaccuracy and update the form or certification if it is legally eligible to do so.

     (ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any Lender with respect to such
Borrower shall, if it is legally eligible to do so, deliver to such Borrower and the
Administrative Agent (in such number of copies reasonably requested by such Borrower and the
Administrative Agent) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a party hereto,
duly completed and executed copies of whichever of the following is applicable:

     (A) in the case of a Lender that is a U.S. Person, IRS Form W-9 certifying that
such Lender is exempt from U.S. Federal backup withholding tax;

     (B) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax
treaty to which the United States is a party (1) with respect to payments of
interest under any Credit Document, IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from,
or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of
such tax treaty and (2) with respect to any other applicable payments under any
Credit Document, IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of,
U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income”
article of such tax treaty;

     (C) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender for whom payments under any Credit
Document constitute income that is effectively connected with such Lender’s conduct
of a trade or business in the United States, IRS Form W-8ECI;

32

 

     (D) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for
portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code both (1) IRS Form W-8BEN and (2)
a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D (a “U.S. Tax
Certificate”) to the effect that such Lender is not (a) a “bank” within the
meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (b) a “10 percent shareholder” of the
Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code (c) a “controlled
foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (d)
conducting a trade or business in the United States with which the relevant interest
payments are effectively connected;

     (E) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender that is not the beneficial owner of
payments made under any Credit Document (including a partnership or a participating
Lender) (1) an IRS Form W-8IMY on behalf of itself and (2) the relevant forms
prescribed in clauses (A), (B), (C), (D) and (F) of this paragraph (f)(ii) that
would be required of each such beneficial owner or partner of such partnership if
such beneficial owner or partner were a Lender; provided, however,
that if the Lender is a partnership and one or more of its partners are claiming the
exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, such Lender may
provide a U.S. Tax Certificate on behalf of such partners; or

     (F) any other form prescribed by law as a basis for claiming exemption from, or
a reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax together with such supplementary
documentation necessary to enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to
determine the amount of Tax (if any) required by law to be withheld.

     (iii) If a payment made to a Lender under any Credit Document would be subject to U.S.
Federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail 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 Withholding Agent, at
the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the
Withholding Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed
by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably
requested by the Withholding Agent as may be necessary for the Withholding Agent to comply
with its obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has or has not complied with
such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from
such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 2.17(f)(iii), “FATCA” shall include any
amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

          (g) If any Lender determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has
received a refund in respect of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which indemnification or
additional amounts have been paid to it by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.17, it shall
remit such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid,
by the Borrower under this Section 2.17 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving
rise to such refund plus any interest included in such refund (plus any penalties, interest or
other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) by the

33

 

relevant Governmental Authority attributable thereto) to the Borrower, net of all
out-of-pocket expenses of such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the
relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that the Borrower, upon the
request of such Lender agrees promptly to return such refund to such party in the event such party
is required to repay such refund to the relevant Governmental Authority. Nothing herein contained
shall interfere with the right of a Lender to arrange its tax affairs in whatever manner it thinks
fit nor oblige any Lender to claim any tax refund or to make available its tax returns or disclose
any information relating to its tax affairs or any computations in respect thereof or any other
confidential information or require any Lender to do anything that would prejudice its ability to
benefit from any other refunds, credits, reliefs, remissions or repayments to which it may be
entitled. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.17(g), in no event will any
Lender be required to pay any amount to any indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 2.17(g) if
such payment would place such Lender in a less favorable position (on a net after-Tax basis) than
such Lender would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to
such refund had never been paid.

          SECTION 2.18. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs. (a) The
Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal,
interest, fees, or of amounts payable under Section 2.15, 2.16 or 2.17, or otherwise) prior to
12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set
off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of
the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for
purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative
Agent at its offices at 270 Park Avenue, New York, New York, except payments to be made directly to
the Swingline Lenders as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections
2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The
Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other
Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder
shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the
next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon
shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in
dollars.

          (b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative
Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds
shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among
the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such
parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal then due hereunder, ratably among the
parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal then due to such parties.

          (c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set off or counterclaim or otherwise,
obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Revolving Loans or
Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the
aggregate amount of its Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon than the
proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall
purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Revolving Loans

34

 

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

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

          (e) If any Lender shall fail to make any Loan or payment required to be made by it pursuant
to Section 2.02, 2.05(c), 2.07(b), 2.18(d) or 9.03(c), then the Administrative Agent may, in its
discretion and notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, (i) apply any amounts thereafter
received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s
obligations to it under such Section until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid, and/or
(ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and application to, any
future funding obligations of such Lender under any such Section, in the case of each of clauses
(i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined by the Administrative Agent in its discretion.

          SECTION 2.19. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. (a) If any Lender
requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional
amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to
Section 2.17, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office
for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to
another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such
designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.15 or
2.17, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed
cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The

35

 

Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in
connection with any such designation or assignment.

          (b) If (x) any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if the Borrower is
required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account
of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, (y) in connection with any proposed amendment, waiver or
consent to this Agreement or any other Credit Document requiring the consent of “each Lender” or
“each Lender directly affected thereby,” the consent of the Required Lenders is obtained, but the
consent of other necessary Lenders is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is necessary but
not obtained being referred to herein as a “Non-Consenting Lender”) or (z) any Lender
becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to
such Lender or Non-Consenting Lender, as applicable, and the Administrative Agent, require such
Lender or such Non-Consenting Lender, as applicable, to assign and delegate, without recourse (in
accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests,
rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations
(which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that
(i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which
consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender or such Non-Consenting Lender, as
applicable, shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its
Loans and participations in Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other
amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal
and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the
case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.15 or payments
required to be made pursuant to Section 2.17, such assignment will result in a reduction in such
compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and
delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the
circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

          SECTION 2.20. 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 unused Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to
Section 2.12(a);

          (b) the Commitment and Revolving Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be
included in determining whether the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder
(including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 9.02);
provided, that this clause (b) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the
case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of such Lender or each
Lender affected thereby;

          (c) if any Swingline Exposure exists at the time such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender
then:

36

 

     (i) all or any part of the Swingline Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall be
reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments
but only to the extent that (x) the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Credit
Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure does not exceed the total of all
non-Defaulting Lenders’ Commitments and (y) the conditions set forth in Sections 4.01 and
4.02 are satisfied at such time; and

     (ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially,
be effected, the Borrower shall within one (1) Business Day following notice by the
Administrative Agent prepay such Swingline Exposure; and

          (d) so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, no Swingline Lender shall be required to
fund any Swingline Loan, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure will be 100% covered by
the Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and participating interests in any newly made
Swingline Loan shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section
2.20(c)(i) (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein).

          In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Swingline Lenders each agree
that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a
Defaulting Lender, then the Swingline 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 (other than Swingline Loans) as the Administrative Agent shall
determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its
Applicable Percentage.

ARTICLE III

respect to any of the properties of any Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries.

          (d) No Governmental Authorization, and no notice to or filing with, any Governmental

filing or performance by any Credit Party of any Credit Document to which it is or is to be a

          (e) This Agreement has been, and each other Credit Document when delivered hereunder will
have been, duly executed and delivered by each Credit Party party thereto. This Agreement is, and
each other Credit Document when delivered hereunder will be, the legal, valid and binding

with its terms subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other
laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to

38

 

general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or
at law.

          (f) Except as set forth in the financial statements referred to in Section 3.01(h), there is
no action, suit, investigation, litigation or proceeding affecting any Credit Party or any of its
Subsidiaries, including any Environmental Action, pending or, to the knowledge of any Credit
Party, threatened before any Governmental Authority or arbitrator that (i) could reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) purports to affect the legality, validity or
enforceability of any Credit Document or the consummation of the financing transactions evidenced
hereby and by the other Credit Documents.

          (g) The audited Consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as at
September 30, 2010, and the related audited Consolidated statement of income and audited
Consolidated statement of cash flows of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries for the Fiscal Year then
ended, accompanied by an unqualified opinion of Ernst & Young LLP, independent public accountants,
copies of which have been made available to each Lender, fairly present in all material respects
the Consolidated financial condition of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as at such date and the
Consolidated results of operations of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries for the period ended on
such date, all in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis. The unaudited Consolidated
balance sheet of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as at December 31, 2010, and the related
unaudited Consolidated statement of income and unaudited Consolidated statement of cash flows of
the Borrower and its Subsidiaries for the fiscal quarter then ended fairly present in all material
respects the Consolidated financial condition of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as at such date
and the Consolidated results of operations of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries for the period
ended on such date (subject to normal year end audit adjustments), all in accordance with GAAP
applied on a consistent basis. The unaudited Consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries as at March 31, 2011, and the related unaudited Consolidated statement of income and
unaudited Consolidated statement of cash flows of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries for the fiscal
quarter then ended fairly present in all material respects the Consolidated financial condition of
the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as at such date and the Consolidated results of operations of
the Borrower and its Subsidiaries for the period ended on such date (subject to normal year end
audit adjustments), all in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis. All such financial
statements, including the related schedules and notes thereto, have been prepared in accordance
with GAAP applied consistently throughout the periods involved (except as approved by the
aforementioned firm of accountants and disclosed therein). Since September 30, 2010, there has
been no Material Adverse Effect.

          (h) The Consolidated forecasted balance sheets, statements of income and statements of cash
flows of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries made available to each Lender electing to receive the
same pursuant to Section 5.03 were prepared in good faith on the basis of the assumptions stated
therein, which assumptions were reasonably believed to be reasonable in light of the conditions
existing at the time such forecasts were made available to each such Lender, and represented, at
the time of such forecasts were made available to each such Lender, the Borrower’s best estimate
of its future financial performance (it being understood that any such projected financial
information is subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond
the control of the Borrower, that the Borrower

39

 

gives no assurance that such future financial performance will be realized and that actual
results may differ from that in the forecasted financial information and such differences may be
material).

          (i) Neither the Information Memorandum nor any of the other reports, financial statements,
certificates or other written information, other than forward-looking information (including any
projections) and information of a general economic or general industry nature, furnished by or on
behalf of the Borrower to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with the
negotiation of this Agreement or delivered or made available hereunder (as modified or
supplemented by other information so furnished, and all filings of the Borrower or any of its
Subsidies that have been made with the Securities and Exchange Commission), taken as a whole, when
furnished contains any material misstatement of fact or omits to state any material fact necessary
to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which such statements were
made, not materially misleading.

          (j) No proceeds of any Loan will be used for any purpose that violates, or which is
inconsistent with, the provisions of Regulation T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System of the United States, as in effect from time to time.

          (k) No Credit Party is, nor is any Credit Party required to be, registered as an “investment
company” under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Neither the making of any Loans,
nor the application of the proceeds or repayment thereof by the Borrower, nor the consummation of
the other transactions contemplated by the Credit Documents, will violate any provision of any
such Act or any rule, regulation or order of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder.

          (l) As of the Effective Date, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries are, taken as a whole,
Solvent.

          (m) (i) No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur with respect to any
Plan which could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

     (ii) Schedule B (Actuarial Information) to the most recent annual report (Form
5500 Series) for each Single Employer Plan, copies of which have been filed with the
Internal Revenue Service and will be made available to the Lenders upon a written
request to the Borrower, is complete and accurate in all material respects and
fairly presents the funding status of such Single Employer Plan.

     (iii) Neither any Credit Party nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred or to the
knowledge of any Credit Party or ERISA Affiliate, is reasonably expected to incur
any Withdrawal Liability to any Multiemployer Plan which could reasonably be
expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

     (iv) Neither any Credit Party nor any ERISA Affiliate has been notified by the
sponsor of a Multiemployer Plan that such Multiemployer Plan is in reorganization or
has been terminated, within the meaning of Title IV of ERISA,

40

 

and, to the knowledge of any Credit Party or ERISA Affiliate, no such
Multiemployer Plan is reasonably expected to be in reorganization or to be
terminated, within the meaning of Title IV of ERISA.

          (n) The operations and properties of each Credit Party and each of its Subsidiaries comply in
all material respects with all applicable Environmental Laws and Environmental Permits, and, to
the Borrower’s knowledge, no circumstances exist that could form the basis of an Environmental
Action against any Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their properties that could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

          (o) Each Credit Party and each of its Subsidiaries and Affiliates has filed, has caused to be
filed or has been included in all Federal and State and other material Tax returns required to be
filed by it and has paid all Taxes due, except (i) Taxes that are being contested in good faith by
appropriate proceedings and for which such Credit Party or such Subsidiary, as applicable, has set
aside on its books adequate reserves or (ii) to the extent that the failure to do so could not
reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

ARTICLE V

Covenants of the Borrower

          SECTION 5.01. Affirmative Covenants. So long as any Loan or any other Obligation of
any Credit Party under any Credit Document shall remain unpaid or any Lender shall have any
Commitment hereunder, the Borrower will:

42

 

          (a) Compliance with Laws, Etc. Comply, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to comply,
in all material respects, with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders that are
material to the conduct of the business of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole,
such compliance to include, without limitation, compliance with Environmental Laws and ERISA.

          (b) Payment of Taxes, Etc. Pay and discharge, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to
pay and discharge, before the same shall become delinquent, (i) all material Taxes imposed upon it
or upon its property and (ii) all lawful claims that, if unpaid, might by law become a Lien upon
its property; provided, however, that neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries
shall be required to pay or discharge any such Tax or claim that is being contested in good faith
and by proper proceedings and as to which appropriate reserves are being maintained.

          (c) Maintenance of Insurance. Maintain, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to
maintain, insurance in such amounts and covering such risks, and with such deductibles or
self-insurance retentions, as is usually carried by companies engaged in similar businesses and
owning similar properties in the same general areas in which the Borrower or such Subsidiary
operates.

          (d) Preservation of Corporate Existence, Etc. Preserve and maintain, and cause each
of its Subsidiaries to preserve and maintain (i) its legal existence and legal structure and (ii)
to the extent material to the conduct of the business of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken
as a whole, its rights (charter and statutory), permits, licenses, approvals, privileges and
franchises except, in the case of its Subsidiaries that are not Credit Parties, to the extent the
failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect;
provided, however, that the Borrower and its Subsidiaries may consummate any merger,
consolidation, liquidation or dissolution permitted under Section 5.02(d) or any sale, transfer or
other disposition permitted under Section 5.02(e).

          (e) Visitation Rights. At any reasonable time and from time to time, upon reasonable
prior notice, permit the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders, or any agents or
representatives thereof, to examine and make copies of and abstracts from the records and books of
account of, and visit the properties of, the Borrower and any of its Subsidiaries, and to discuss

Subsidiaries and either (i) enforcement proceedings shall have been commenced by any creditor upon
such judgment or order or (ii) there shall be any period of 10 consecutive days during which the
payment for such judgment or order shall remain unsatisfied and a stay of enforcement of such
judgment or order, by reason of a pending appeal or otherwise, shall not be in effect;
provided, however, that any such amount shall be calculated after deducting from
the sum so payable any amount of such judgment or order that is covered by a valid and binding
policy of insurance in favor of such Credit Party or Subsidiary from an insurer that is rated at
least “A” by A.M. Best Company, which policy covers full payment thereof and which insurer has
been notified, and has not disputed the claim made for payment, of such amount of such judgment or
order; or

          (h) any provision of any Credit Document after delivery thereof pursuant to Section 4.01 or
5.01(h) shall for any reason cease to be valid and binding on or enforceable against any Credit
Party party to it, or any such Credit Party shall so state in writing except to the extent such
Credit Party has been released from its obligations thereunder in accordance with this Agreement
or such other Credit Document or such Credit Document has expired or terminated in accordance with
its terms; or

          (i) a Change of Control shall occur; or

          (j) any ERISA Event shall have occurred with respect to a Single Employer Plan which could
reasonably be expected to result in liability to any Credit Party and/or any ERISA Affiliate in an
amount that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; or

          (k) any Credit Party or any ERISA Affiliate shall have been notified by the sponsor of a
Multiemployer Plan that it has incurred Withdrawal Liability to such Multiemployer Plan in an
amount that, when aggregated with all other amounts required to be paid to Multiemployer Plans by
the Credit Parties and the ERISA Affiliates as Withdrawal Liability (determined as of the date of
such notification), could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; or

          (l) any Credit Party or any ERISA Affiliate shall have been notified by the sponsor of a
Multiemployer Plan that such Multiemployer Plan is in reorganization or is being terminated,
within the meaning of Title IV of ERISA, and as a result of such reorganization or termination the
aggregate annual contributions of the Credit Parties and the ERISA Affiliates to all Multiemployer
Plans that are then in reorganization or being terminated have been or will be increased over the
amounts contributed to such Multiemployer Plans for the plan years of such Multiemployer Plans
immediately preceding the plan year in which such reorganization or termination occurs by an
amount that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect;

54

 

then, and in every such event (other than an event with respect to the Borrower described in clause
(f) of this Article), and at any time thereafter during the continuance of such event, the
Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the Required Lenders shall, by notice to the
Borrower, take either or both of the following actions, at the same or different times: (i)
terminate the Commitments, and thereupon the Commitments shall terminate immediately, and (ii)
declare the Loans then outstanding to be due and payable in whole (or in part, in which case any
principal not so declared to be due and payable may thereafter be declared to be due and payable),
and thereupon the principal of the Loans so declared to be due and payable, together with accrued
interest thereon and all fees and other obligations of the Borrower accrued hereunder, shall become
due and payable immediately, without presentment, demand, protest or further notice of any kind,
all of which are hereby waived by the Borrower; and in case of any event with respect to the
Borrower described in clause (f) of this Article, the Commitments shall automatically terminate and
the principal of the Loans then outstanding, together with accrued interest thereon and all fees
and other obligations of the Borrower accrued hereunder, shall automatically become due and
payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby
waived by the Borrower.

ARTICLE VII

Guaranty

          SECTION 7.01. Guaranty; Limitation of Liability. (a) Each Guarantor, jointly and
severally, hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the punctual payment when
due, whether at scheduled maturity or on any date of a required prepayment or by acceleration,
demand or otherwise, of all Obligations of each other Credit Party now or hereafter existing under
or in respect of the Guaranteed Hedge Agreements and the Credit Documents (including, without
limitation, any extensions, modifications, substitutions, amendments or renewals of any or all of
the foregoing Obligations), whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, and whether for
principal, interest, premiums, fees, indemnities, contract causes of action, costs, expenses or
otherwise (such Obligations being the “Guaranteed Obligations”), and agrees to pay any and
all expenses (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of counsel) incurred by the
Administrative Agent or any other Lender in enforcing any rights under this Guaranty or any other
Credit Document. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor’s liability shall
extend to all amounts that constitute part of the Guaranteed Obligations and would be owed by any
other Credit Party to any Lender under or in respect of the Guaranteed Hedge Agreements and the
Credit Documents but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence
of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving such other Credit Party.

          (b) Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of this Guaranty, the Administrative Agent and each
other Lender, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such Persons that this Guaranty and
the Obligations of each Guarantor hereunder not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for
purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer
Act or any similar foreign, federal or state law to the extent applicable to this Guaranty and the
Obligations of each Guarantor hereunder. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Administrative
Agent, the other Lenders and each Guarantor hereby irrevocably agree that the Obligations of each
Guarantor under this Guaranty

55

 

at any time shall be limited to the maximum amount as will result in the Obligations of such
Guarantor under this Guaranty not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

          SECTION 7.02. Guaranty Absolute. Each Guarantor guarantees that the Guaranteed
Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the Credit Documents, regardless
of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of
such terms or the rights of any Lender with respect thereto. The Obligations of each Guarantor
under or in respect of this Guaranty are independent of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other
Obligations of any other Credit Party under or in respect of the Credit Documents, and a separate
action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against each Guarantor to enforce this Guaranty,
irrespective of whether any action is brought against the Borrower or any other Credit Party or
whether the Borrower or any other Credit Party is joined in any such action or actions. The
liability of each Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be irrevocable, absolute and unconditional
irrespective of, and each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any defenses it may now have or
hereafter acquire in any way relating to, any or all of the following (other than payment in full
of the Guaranteed Obligations):

          (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Credit Document or any agreement or
instrument relating thereto;

          (b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or
any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Obligations of any other Credit Party under or in
respect of the Credit Documents, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure
from any Credit Document, including, without limitation, any increase in the Guaranteed
Obligations resulting from the extension of additional credit to any Credit Party or any of its
Subsidiaries or otherwise;

          (c) any taking, exchange, release or non-perfection of any collateral, or any taking, release
or amendment or waiver of, or consent to departure from, any other guaranty, for all or any of the
Guaranteed Obligations;

          (d) any manner of application of any collateral, or proceeds thereof, to all or any of the
Guaranteed Obligations, or any manner of sale or other disposition of any collateral for all or
any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Obligations of any Credit Party under the Credit
Documents or any other assets of any Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries;

          (e) any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or existence of any
Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries;

          (f) any failure of any Lender to disclose to any Credit Party any information relating to the
business, condition (financial or otherwise), operations, performance, properties or prospects of
any other Credit Party now or hereafter known to such Lender (each Guarantor waiving any duty on
the part of the Lenders to disclose such information);

          (g) the failure of any other Person to execute or deliver this Agreement, any Guaranty
Supplement or any other guaranty or agreement or the release or reduction of liability of each
Guarantor or other guarantor or surety with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations; or

56

 

          (h) any other circumstance (including, without limitation, any statute of limitations) or any
existence of or reliance on any representation by any Lender that might otherwise constitute a
defense available to, or a discharge of, any Credit Party or any other guarantor or surety.

          This Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any
time any payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by
any Lender or any other Person upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or
any other Credit Party or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

          SECTION 7.03. Waivers and Acknowledgments. (a) Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally
and irrevocably waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance, presentment, demand for
performance, notice of nonperformance, default, acceleration, protest or dishonor and any other
notice with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations and this Guaranty and any requirement that
any Lender protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien or any property subject thereto or exhaust
any right or take any action against any Credit Party or any other Person or any collateral.

          (b) Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives any right to revoke this
Guaranty and acknowledges that this Guaranty is continuing in nature and applies to all Guaranteed
Obligations, whether existing now or in the future.

          (c) Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives (i) any defense arising by
reason of any claim or defense based upon an election of remedies by any Lender that in any manner
impairs, reduces, releases or otherwise adversely affects the subrogation, reimbursement,
exoneration, contribution or indemnification rights of each Guarantor or other rights of each
Guarantor to proceed against any of the other Credit Parties or any other Person or any collateral
and (ii) any defense based on any right of set-off or counterclaim against or in respect of the
Obligations of each Guarantor hereunder.

          (d) Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives any duty on the part of any
Lender to disclose to each Guarantor any matter, fact or thing relating to the business, condition
(financial or otherwise), operations, performance, properties or prospects of any other Credit
Party or any of its Subsidiaries now or hereafter known by such Lender.

          (e) Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive substantial direct and indirect benefits
from the financing arrangements contemplated by the Credit Documents and that the waivers set
forth in Section 7.02 and this Section 7.03 are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

          SECTION 7.04. Subrogation. Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably
agrees not to exercise any rights that it may now have or hereafter acquire against the Borrower,
any other Credit Party that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of each
of the Guarantor’s Obligations under or in respect of this Guaranty or any other Credit Document,
including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution
or indemnification and any right to participate in any claim or remedy

57

 

of any Lender against the Borrower or any other Credit Party or any collateral, whether or not
such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law, including,
without limitation, the right to take or receive from the Borrower or any other Credit Party,
directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or
security on account of such claim, remedy or right, unless and until all of the Guaranteed
Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty shall have been paid in full in cash,
all Guaranteed Hedge Agreements shall have expired or been terminated and the Commitments shall
have expired or been terminated. If any amount shall be paid to each Guarantor in violation of the
immediately preceding sentence at any time prior to the latest of (a) the payment in full in cash
of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty, (b) the Maturity
Date and (c) the latest date of expiration or termination of all Guaranteed Hedge Agreements, such
amount shall be received and held in trust for the benefit of the Lenders, shall be segregated from
other property and funds of each Guarantor and shall forthwith be paid or delivered to the
Administrative Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement or assignment)
to be credited and applied to the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this
Guaranty, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Credit Documents, or to
be held as collateral for any Guaranteed Obligations or other amounts payable under this Guaranty
thereafter arising. If (i) each Guarantor shall make payment to any Lender of all or any part of
the Guaranteed Obligations, (ii) all of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable
under this Guaranty shall have been paid in full in cash, (iii) the Maturity Date shall have
occurred and (iv) all Guaranteed Hedge Agreements shall have expired or been terminated, the
Lenders will, at each Guarantor’s request and expense, execute and deliver to each Guarantor
appropriate documents, without recourse and without representation or warranty, necessary to
evidence the transfer by subrogation to each Guarantor of an interest in the Guaranteed Obligations
resulting from such payment made by each Guarantor pursuant to this Guaranty.

          SECTION 7.05. Guaranty Supplements. Upon the execution and delivery by any Person of a
guaranty supplement in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto (each, a “Guaranty
Supplement”), (a) such Person shall be referred to as an “Additional Guarantor” and
shall become and be a Guarantor hereunder, and each reference in this Guaranty to a “Guarantor”
shall also mean and be a reference to such Additional Guarantor, and each reference in any other
Credit Document to a “Guarantor” shall also mean and be a reference to such Additional Guarantor,
and (b) each reference herein to “this Guaranty,” “hereunder,” “hereof” or words of like import
referring to this Guaranty, and each reference in any other Credit Document to the “Guaranty,”
“thereunder,” “thereof” or words of like import referring to this Guaranty, shall mean and be a
reference to this Guaranty as supplemented by such Guaranty Supplement.

          SECTION 7.06. Subordination. Each Guarantor hereby subordinates any and all debts,
liabilities and other payment Obligations owed to such Guarantor by each other Credit Party (the
“Subordinated Obligations”) to the Guaranteed Obligations to the extent and in the manner
hereinafter set forth in this Section 7.06:

     (a) Prohibited Payments, Etc. Except during the continuance of any Event of
Default under Section 6.01(a) or (f), each Guarantor may receive regularly scheduled
payments from any other Credit Party on account of the Subordinated Obligations. After the
occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default under Section 6.01(a)

58

 

or (f), however, unless the Required Lenders otherwise agree, each Guarantor shall
demand, accept or take any action to collect any payment on account of the Subordinated
Obligations.

     (b) Prior Payment of Guaranteed Obligations. In any proceeding under any
Bankruptcy Law relating to any other Credit Party, each Guarantor agrees that the Lenders
shall be entitled to receive payment in full in cash of all Guaranteed Obligations
(including all interest and expenses accruing after the commencement of a proceeding under
any Bankruptcy Law, whether or not constituting an allowed claim in such proceeding
(“Post-Petition Interest”)) before each Guarantor receives payment of any
Subordinated Obligations.

     (c) Turn-Over. After the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of
Default under Section 6.01(a) or (f), each Guarantor shall, if the Administrative Agent so
requests, collect, enforce and receive payments on account of the Subordinated Obligations
as trustee for the Lenders and deliver such payments to the Administrative Agent on account
of the Guaranteed Obligations (including all Post-Petition Interest), together with any
necessary endorsements or other instruments of transfer, but without reducing or affecting
in any manner the liability of each Guarantor under the other provisions of this Guaranty.

     (d) Administrative Agent Authorization. After the occurrence and during the
continuance of any Event of Default under Section 6.01(a) or (f), the Administrative Agent
is authorized and empowered (but without any obligation to so do), in its discretion, (i) in
the name of each Guarantor, to collect and enforce, and to submit claims in respect of, the
Subordinated Obligations and to apply any amounts received thereon to the Guaranteed
Obligations (including any and all Post-Petition Interest), and (ii) to require each
Guarantor (A) to collect and enforce, and to submit claims in respect of, the Subordinated
Obligations and (B) to pay any amounts received on such obligations to the Administrative
Agent for application to the Guaranteed Obligations (including any and all Post-Petition
Interest).

          SECTION 7.07. Continuing Guaranty; Assignments. This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty
and shall (a) remain in full force and effect until the latest of (i) the payment in full in cash
of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty and (ii) the
Maturity Date, (b) be binding upon each Guarantor, its successors and assigns and (c) inure to the
benefit of and be enforceable by the Lenders and their successors, transferees and assigns. Without
limiting the generality of clause (c) of the immediately preceding sentence, any Lender may assign
or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement
(including, without limitation, all or any portion of its Commitments, the Loans owing to it and
any Note or Notes held by it) to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become
vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Lender herein or otherwise, in each
case as and to the extent provided in Section 9.04. Except as expressly permitted hereunder, no
Guarantor shall have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein without the
prior written consent of the Lenders.

59

 

ARTICLE VIII

The Administrative Agent, Syndication Agent and the Co-Documentation Agents

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

          The bank serving as the Administrative Agent, the bank serving as Syndication Agent and the
banks serving as Co-Documentation Agents hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in their
capacities as Lenders as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the
Administrative Agent , the Syndication Agent or a Co-Documentation Agent, and such banks and their
Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business
with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Administrative
Agent, the Syndication Agent or a Co-Documentation Agent hereunder.

          The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set
forth herein. Nether the Syndication Agent nor the Co-Documentation Agents shall have any duties
or responsibilities hereunder in their respective capacities as such. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or
other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the
Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any
discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby that the
Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing as directed by the Required Lenders (or
such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as
provided in Section 9.02), and (c) except as expressly set forth herein, the Administrative Agent
shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any
information relating to the 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. The
Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent and the Co-Documentation Agents shall not be liable for
any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or
such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as
provided in Section 9.02) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or wilful misconduct. The
Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written
notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or a Lender, and the
Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent and the Co-Documentation Agents shall not be
responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or
representation made in or in connection with this Agreement, (ii) the contents of any certificate,
report or other document delivered hereunder or in connection herewith, (iii) the performance or
observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein, (iv)
the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement or any other
agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV
or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to
the Administrative Agent.

60

 

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

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

          Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided in
this paragraph, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders and the
Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right (with the consent
of the Borrower, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and shall not be
required if any Event of Default shall be continuing) to appoint a successor. If no successor
shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment
within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation,
then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor
Administrative Agent which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of
any such bank. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a
successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers,
privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent
shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrower to
a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless
otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the Administrative Agent’s
resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.03 shall continue in effect for
the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub agents and their respective Related
Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting
as Administrative Agent.

          Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the
Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent, the Co-Documentation Agents or any other Lender and
based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis
and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will,
independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent, the
Co-Documentation Agents or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall
from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in

61

 

taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any related agreement or any
document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

ARTICLE IX

          SECTION 9.01. Notices. (a) Except in the case of notices and other communications

          (b) Notices and other communications to the Lenders hereunder may be delivered or furnished
by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent and the
Borrower; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices pursuant to Article II
unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the applicable Lender. The Administrative
Agent or the Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to

that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications.

          (c) Any party hereto may change its address or electronic communication or facsimile number
for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto. All notices
and other communications given to any party hereto in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement shall be deemed to have been given on the date of receipt.

          SECTION 9.02. Waivers; Amendments. (a) No failure or delay by the Administrative
Agent or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof,
nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or
discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of

62

 

the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any
rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or
consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same
shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be
effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan shall not be construed as a waiver of any
Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or
knowledge of such Default at the time.

          (b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except
pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Required
Lenders or by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders;
provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without
the written consent of such Lender, (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or reduce the
rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of
each Lender affected thereby, (iii) postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount
of any Loan, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of,
waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment,
without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iv) change Section 2.18(b) or (c) in
a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written
consent of each Lender adversely affected thereby, (v) other than as expressly permitted
hereunder, release any Guarantor (or otherwise limit any Guarantor’s liability with respect to the
Obligations owing to Administrative Agent and the Lenders under the Guaranty), (vi) change Section
2.20 without the consent of the Swingline Lenders or (vii) change any of the provisions of this
Section or reduce any number or percentage set forth in the definition of “Required
Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required
to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent
hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender; provided further that no
such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative
Agent or the Swingline Lenders hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative
Agent or the Swingline Lenders, as the case may be.

          SECTION 9.03. Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. (a) The Borrower shall pay (i) all
reasonable out of pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers and each
of their respective Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of one law
firm acting as primary counsel for the Administrative Agent and the Lead Arrangers and any
additional special counsel to the Administrative Agent and the Lead Arrangers engaged after
consultation with the Borrower, in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities
provided for herein, the preparation and administration of this Agreement or any amendments,
modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated
hereby or thereby shall be consummated) and (ii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the
Administrative Agent or any Lender, including the reasonable and documented fees, charges and
disbursements of one law firm acting as primary counsel for the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders and any additional special counsel to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders engaged
after consultation with the Borrower, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its
rights in connection with this Agreement, including its rights

63

 

under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made hereunder, including all such out-of
pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such
Loans and (iii) any charges of IntraLinks/IntraAgency or other relevant website or CUSIP charges.

          (b) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent, the
Co-Documentation Agents, the Lead Arrangers and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the
foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each
Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses,
including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or
asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the
execution or delivery of this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the
performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or the consummation of
the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan or the use of the
proceeds therefrom, (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or
from any property owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any
Environmental Action relating in any way to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any
actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the
foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any
Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any
Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related
expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment
to have resulted from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such Indemnitee, or the breach
in bad faith of any of such Indemnitee’s express obligations hereunder, and provided
further, that this Section 9.03(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any
Taxes that represent losses or damages arising from any non-Tax claim.

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

          (d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no party hereto shall assert, and hereby
waives, any claim against any Credit Party or any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for
special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages)
arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or
instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof;
provided that this shall not limit the Borrower’s indemnification obligations pursuant to Section
9.03(b).

          (e) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable promptly after written demand
therefor.

64

 

          SECTION 9.04. Successors and Assigns. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and
assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of
its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any
attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and
(ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in
accordance with this Section. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed
to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns
permitted hereby, Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section) and, to
the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent
and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this
Agreement.

          (b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign
to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement
(including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the
prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) of:

     (A) the Borrower, provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be
required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund
or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee; and

     (B) the Administrative Agent, provided that no consent of the
Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment of any Commitment to an
assignee that is a Lender with a Commitment immediately prior to giving effect to
such assignment.

          (ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

     (A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender
or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment
or Loans of any Class, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender
subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and
Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent)
shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent otherwise consent, provided that no such consent of the Borrower shall
be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

     (B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate
part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement,
provided that this clause shall not be construed to prohibit the assignment
of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in
respect of one Class of Commitments or Loans;

65

 

          (C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the
Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and
recordation fee of $3,500; and

          (D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the
Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire in which the assignee
designates one or more Credit Contacts to whom all syndicate-level information
(which may contain material non-public information about the Borrower, the Credit
Parties and their related parties or their respective securities) will be made
available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s
compliance procedures and applicable laws, including Federal and state securities
laws.

          For the purposes of this Section 9.04(b), the term “Approved Fund” has the following
meaning:

          “Approved Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in
making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the
ordinary course of its business and that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an
Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a
Lender.

          (iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this
Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee
thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment
and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning
Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption,
be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and
Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such
Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue, to the extent permitted by applicable
law, to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03). Any assignment or
transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this
Section 9.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a
participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section.

          (iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the
Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered
to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the
Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof
from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and
the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall 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 and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon
reasonable prior notice.

66

 

          (v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning
Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee
shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph
(b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this
Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the
information contained therein in the Register; provided that if either the assigning Lender
or the assignee shall have failed to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section
2.05(c), 2.07(b), 2.18(d) or 9.03(c), the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to accept
such Assignment and Assumption and record the information therein in the Register unless and until
such payment shall have been made in full, together with all accrued interest thereon. No
assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the
Register as provided in this paragraph.

          (vi) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the
Swingline Lenders, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a
“Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this
Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it);
provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged,
(B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of
such obligations and (C) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall
continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and
obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells
such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this
Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement;
provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without
the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the
first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that affects such Participant. The Borrower agrees that, to the
extent permitted by applicable law, each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections
2.15, 2.16 and 2.17 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the
requirements under Section 2.17(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under
Section 2.17(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a
Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section;
provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 2.15
and 2.17 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section; and (B) shall not be
entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.15 or 2.17, with respect to any
participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the
extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from an adoption of or any Change in
Law made subsequent to the date hereof that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable
participation. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the
benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject
to Section 2.18(c) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting
solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the
name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each
Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant
Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any
portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any
information relating to a Participant’s

67

 

interest in any Commitments, Loans or its other obligations under any Credit Document) except
to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan or other
obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury
Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and
such Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner
of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the
contrary.

          (c) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of
its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including without limitation
any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall
not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such
pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations
hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

          SECTION 9.05. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties
made by the Borrower herein and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection
with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other
parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any
Loans, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and
notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any
Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and
shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any
Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid and so
long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.15, 2.16,
2.17 and 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans and the
Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

          SECTION 9.06. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be
executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which
shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single
contract. This Agreement and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the
Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject
matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written,
relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall
become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the
Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the
signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to
the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an
executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by email or facsimile transmission shall
be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

          SECTION 9.07. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid,
illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to

68

 

the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity,
legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular
provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other
jurisdiction.

          SECTION 9.08. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, each Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest
extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or
demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such
Lender to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any of and all the obligations
of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of
whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such
obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to
other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.

          SECTION 9.09. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) This
Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York.

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

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

	          (d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner
provided for notices in Section 9.01. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any
party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

          SECTION 9.10. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES,
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY
LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS

69

 

AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY
OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY
OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT
OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER
PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL
WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

          SECTION 9.11. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used
herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect
the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

          SECTION 9.12. Confidentiality. (a) Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders
agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that
Information may be disclosed (i) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and
agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the
Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such
Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (ii) to the extent requested by
any regulatory authority, (iii) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any
subpoena or similar legal process, (iv) to any other party to this Agreement, (v) in connection
with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this
Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder (with respect to litigation brought by any Person
other than the Administrative Agent, any Credit Party or any Lender Party, after the Borrower shall
have had notice thereof and the opportunity to seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy
with respect thereto), (vi) subject to an agreement containing provisions no less restrictive than
those of this Section to (A) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or
Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (B) any actual or
prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the
Borrower and its obligations, (vii) with the consent of the Borrower or (vii) to the extent such
Information (A) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or
(B) becomes available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a
source other than the Borrower. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all
information received from the Borrower relating to the Borrower or its business, other than any
such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential
basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower; provided that, in the case of information
received from the Borrower after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the
time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of
Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to
do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such
Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

          (b) EACH LENDER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT INFORMATION AS DEFINED IN SECTION 9.12(a) FURNISHED TO IT
PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY INCLUDE MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION CONCERNING THE

70

 

BORROWER AND ITS RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES, AND CONFIRMS THAT IT HAS
DEVELOPED COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES REGARDING THE USE OF MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION AND THAT IT
WILL HANDLE SUCH MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THOSE PROCEDURES AND
APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

          (c) ALL INFORMATION, INCLUDING REQUESTS FOR WAIVERS AND AMENDMENTS, FURNISHED BY THE BORROWER
OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT PURSUANT TO, OR IN THE COURSE OF ADMINISTERING, THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE
SYNDICATE-LEVEL INFORMATION, WHICH MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION ABOUT THE CREDIT
PARTIES AND THEIR RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES. ACCORDINGLY, EACH LENDER
REPRESENTS TO THE BORROWER AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT THAT IT HAS IDENTIFIED IN ITS
ADMINISTRATIVE QUESTIONNAIRE A CREDIT CONTACT WHO MAY RECEIVE INFORMATION THAT MAY CONTAIN
MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW.

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

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

          SECTION 9.15. No Fiduciary Duty. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender has
any fiduciary relationship with or duty to the Borrower or its Affiliates arising out of or in
connection with this Agreement or any of the other Credit Document, and the relationship between
Administrative Agent and Lenders, on one hand, and the Borrower or its Affiliates, on the other
hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of debtor and creditor.
