Exhibit 4.8

EXECUTION COPY

DEFERRED COMPENSATION AGREEMENT

          This agreement (the “Agreement”) between Federal-Mogul Corporation, a Delaware corporation
(the “Company”) and José Maria Alapont (the “Executive”) is entered into on December 27, 2007,
which is the grant date of non-qualified options (the “Options”) to purchase from the Company
4,000,000 shares of its Class A Common Stock (“Stock”) granted pursuant to the Fourth Amended Joint
Plan of Reorganization (As Modified) that was confirmed by the court in the jointly-administered
Chapter 11 cases in the District of Delaware and docketed as Case No. 01-10578 (the “Plan”) through
an order entered November 8, 2007.

     1. Entitlement to Distribution. The Executive shall be entitled to an amount
calculated in accordance with paragraph 3 hereof (the “Distribution”).

     2. Payment of Distribution.

     (a) Form of Distribution. The Distribution shall be payable in equity (shares
of Class A Common Stock of the Company), provided that at the election of the Executive,
some or all of the Distribution will be payable in cash.

     (b) Date of Distribution. The Distribution shall be paid on the first to
occur of: (1) 6 months after the date on which the Executive’s employment with the Company
terminates, (2) December 27, 2014, which is the seventh anniversary of the effective date of
this Agreement, (3) the Executive’s death, (4) the date the Executive becomes Disabled, as
defined for purposes of section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
“Code”), or (5) the occurrence of an Unforeseeable Emergency, as defined for purposes of
section 409A of the Code, provided that the amount of the Distribution payable upon an
Unforeseeable Emergency shall be limited to the amount necessary to satisfy such
Unforeseeable Emergency, and the remaining amount of the Distribution, if any, shall be paid
on the next to occur of such dates. No amount shall be payable under this Agreement,
however, if prior to March 23, 2010, the Company terminates the Executive’s employment for
Cause, or the Executive terminates his employment without Good Reason, as such terms are
defined in the Employment Agreement between the Company and the Executive dated February 2,
2005 (the “Employment Agreement”).

     (c) Change in Distribution Date. Executive shall have the right to substitute
a different date for the date in paragraph 2(a)(2) (December 27, 2014), provided that the
Executive must notify the Company of such substitution at least 12 months before such date,
such substitution shall not be effective until 12 months after the date of notification, and
the different date provided in substitution must be at least 5 years after December 27,
2014.

     3. Amount of Distribution. The amount of the Distribution shall be equal to the Base
Value, reduced by the Offset Amount (but not below zero), determined as of a Determination Date, as
defined in paragraph 3(d).

 

 

     (a) Base Value. The Base Value shall be equal to the fair market value of
500,000 shares of Stock as of the “Determination Date.”

     (b) Adjustments to Base Value. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein, in the event that the date on which the Executive’s employment with the Company
terminates is prior to March 23, 2010, the Base Value shall be reduced by the fair market
value of 8,333.33 shares of Stock multiplied by the number of full months remaining from the
date on which the Executive’s employment with the Company terminates until March 23, 2010.
In addition, if the Executive has fewer than 2,000,000 vested, unexercised Options
outstanding as of the Determination Date, the Base Value shall be reduced by an amount equal
to the fair market value of the number of shares of Stock equal to 2,000,000 minus the
number of vested, unexercised Options outstanding as of the Determination Date, divided by
4.

     (c) Offset Amount. The Offset Amount shall equal the number of vested,
outstanding Options as of the Determination Date, up to a maximum of 2,000,000 Options,
multiplied by the excess of the fair market value of a share of Stock as of the
Determination Date over the per share exercise price of the Options.

     (d) Determination Date. The Determination Date shall be the first to occur of
(1) the date on which the Executive’s employment with the Company terminates, (2) March 23,
2010, (3) the Executive’s death, (4) the date the Executive becomes Disabled, as defined for
purposes of section 409A of the Code, (5) at the election of the Executive, a Change in
Control, as defined for purposes of section 409A of the Code, or (6) the occurrence of an
Unforeseeable Emergency, as defined for purposes of section 409A of the Code.

     (e) Final Adjustment. In the event that the Determination Date occurs before
the Distribution Date, then the Distribution may be reduced (but not below zero) by a Final
Adjustment, calculated under this paragraph 3(e). The Final Adjustment is calculated only
with respect to Options which were taken in account in calculating the Offset Amount under
paragraph 3(c) and are exercised after the Determination Date on a date when the fair market
value of a share of Stock exceeds the fair market value of a share of Stock as of the
Determination Date. The amount of the Final Adjustment, if any, is equal to the sum for
each such Option of 75% of the amount by which the fair market value of a share of Stock on
the date of exercise exceeds the fair market value of a share of Stock as of the
Determination Date.

     4. Other Provisions.

     (a) Withholding Taxes. The Company is authorized to withhold from any
Distribution such amount as the Company may be required, under all applicable federal,
state, local or other laws or regulations, to withhold and pay over as income or other
withholding taxes

2

 

     (b) Adjustment. In the event of any stock split, stock dividend,
recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation, combination, exchange of shares,
liquidation, spin-off or other similar change in capitalization or event, or any
distribution to holders of Stock other than a regular cash dividend,
the number and class of shares taken into account under paragraph 3 shall be appropriately adjusted by the Company
to reflect such change in capitalization or distribution.

     (c) Agreement Confers No Rights as Stockholder. This Agreement does not
entitle the Executive to status as a shareholder with respect to the shares of Stock taken
into account in calculating the amount of Distribution.

     (d) Agreement Confers No Rights to Continued Employment. In no event shall
this Agreement give or be deemed to give the Executive any right to continued employment by
the Company or any affiliate of the Company.

     (e) Successors. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit
of any successor or successors of the Company and any person or persons who shall, upon the
death of the Executive, acquire any rights hereunder in accordance with this Agreement.

     (f) Notices. All notices, requests or other communications provided for in
this Agreement shall be made, if to the Company, to Federal-Mogul Corporation, 26555
Northwestern Highway, Southfield, Michigan 48034, Attention: General Counsel; and if to the
Executive, to José Maria Alapont, 1772 Heron Ridge Drive, Bloomfield Hills, MI 48302. All
notices, requests or other communications provided for in this Agreement shall be made in
writing either (a) by personal delivery to the party entitled thereto, (b) by facsimile with
confirmation of receipt, (c) by mailing in the United States mails to the last known address
of the party entitled thereto or (d) by express courier service. The notice, request or
other communication shall be deemed to be received upon personal delivery, upon confirmation
of receipt of facsimile transmission or upon receipt by the party entitled thereto if by
United States mail or express courier service; provided, however, that if a notice, request
or other communication sent to the Company is not received during regular business hours, it
shall be deemed to be received on the next succeeding business day of the Company.

     (g) Related Trust. Simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement, the
Company shall establish a trust or similar arrangement with respect to this Agreement and
transfer 500,000 shares of Stock to the trustee or equivalent party of such similar
arrangement. Such trust or similar arrangement will provide that the shares of Stock held
thereunder may not be released to the Company until after the amount of the Distribution, if
any, required to be paid to the Executive under this Agreement has been paid in full.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any such arrangement will be established so
as to preserve the status of the Agreement as an unfunded, unsecured
promise to pay of the Company and in compliance with the requirements of section 409A of the
Code.

3

 

     (h) Amendment. The provisions of this Agreement may be amended only by the
written agreement of the Company and the Executive.

     (i) Governing Law. This Agreement and all determinations made and actions
taken pursuant hereto and thereto, to the extent not governed by the laws of the United
States, shall be governed by the laws of the State of Michigan and construed in accordance
therewith without giving effect to principles of conflicts of laws. This Agreement
provides for nonqualified deferred compensation for purposes of section 409A of the Code and
shall be construed so as to comply with the provisions of such section. To the extent that
an amendment or revision to this Agreement is necessary to ensure compliance with such
section, the Company and the Executive agree to cooperate to make such amendment or revision
in a manner consistent with the other provisions of this Agreement.

     (j) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two counterparts, each of
which shall be deemed an original and both of which together shall constitute one and the
same instrument.

receives notice from the Fronting Bank of a draw at a rate per annum equal to (x) if such draft is
drawn under an R/C Letter of Credit, the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin with
respect to Revolving Credit Loans and (y) if such draft is drawn under a Term Letter of Credit, the
Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin with respect to Term Loans and (2) thereafter until
reimbursed in full at a rate per annum equal to (x) if such draft is drawn under an R/C Letter of
Credit, the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin with respect to Revolving Credit Loans
plus 2% and (y) if such draft is drawn under a Term Letter of Credit, the Alternate Base Rate plus
the Applicable Margin with respect to Term Loans plus 2%, in each case computed on the basis of the
actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days. The Borrower shall effect such
reimbursement (i) with respect to drafts drawn under any R/C Letter of Credit, (x) if such draft is
drawn prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date (or the earlier date of termination of the Total
Revolving Credit Commitment), in cash or through a Revolving Credit Borrowing (an “R/C Refunding
Borrowing”) without the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.02 or (y)
if such draft is drawn on or after the Revolving Credit Maturity Date (or the earlier date of
termination of the Total Revolving Credit Commitment), in cash and (ii) with respect to drafts
drawn under any Term Letter of Credit, in cash; provided that unless the Borrower shall have
notified the Administrative Agent and the Fronting Bank of its intent to reimburse any such drawing
on a Term Letter of Credit in cash on or before the first Business Day following the date on which
the Borrower has been notified of the draw (and shall have actually made such reimbursement in cash
to the Fronting Bank on such date), the Borrower’s obligation to reimburse the Fronting Bank with
respect to such drawing shall be satisfied by funds withdrawn by the Administrative Agent from the
Term Letter of Credit Account and transferred to the Fronting Bank in accordance with Section
2.04(c)(i) (and the Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes and instructs the Administrative Agent
to make such withdrawals and transfers). Each Revolving Credit Lender agrees to make the Revolving
Credit Loans pursuant to any Revolving Credit Borrowing described in clause (i)(x) of the
immediately preceding sentence notwithstanding a failure to satisfy the applicable lending
conditions thereto or the provisions of Sections 2.01 or 2.27.

     (f) Immediately upon the issuance of any R/C Letter of Credit by the Fronting Bank, the
Fronting Bank shall be deemed to have sold to each Revolving Credit Lender and each such Revolving
Credit Lender shall be deemed unconditionally and irrevocably to have purchased from the Fronting
Bank, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation, to the extent of such
Revolving Credit Lender’s Class Percentage, in such Letter of Credit, each drawing thereunder and
the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement with respect thereto. Upon any change in the
Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to Section 9.03(b), it is hereby agreed that with respect to
all R/C Letter of Credit Outstandings, there shall be an automatic adjustment to the participations
hereby created to reflect the new Class Percentage of the assigning and assignee Revolving Credit
Lenders. Any action taken or omitted by the Fronting Bank under or in connection with a Letter of
Credit, if taken or omitted in the absence

53

 

of gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall not create for the Fronting Bank any
resulting liability to any other Lender.

     (g) In the event that the Fronting Bank makes any payment under any Letter of Credit and the
Borrower shall not have reimbursed such amount in full to the Fronting Bank pursuant to this
Section, the Fronting Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, which, in the case of a
payment under an R/C Letter of Credit, shall promptly notify each Revolving Credit Lender of such
failure, and, in the case of a payment under an R/C Letter of Credit, each Revolving Credit Lender
shall promptly and unconditionally pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Fronting
Bank the amount of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Class Percentage of such unreimbursed payment in
Dollars (determined, in the case of any R/C Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative
Currency, on the date such draft is drawn) and in same day funds. If the Fronting Bank so notifies
the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent so notifies the Revolving Credit Lenders
prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on any Business Day, then each of the Revolving Credit
Lenders shall make available to the Fronting Bank in Dollars such Revolving Credit Lender’s Class
Percentage of the amount of such payment on such Business Day in same day funds. If and to the
extent any Revolving Credit Lender shall not have so made its Class Percentage of the amount of
such payment available to the Fronting Bank, such Lender agrees to pay to the Fronting Bank,
forthwith on demand such amount, together with interest thereon, for each day from such date until
the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Fronting Bank at
the Federal Funds Rate. The failure of any Revolving Credit Lender to make available to the
Fronting Bank its Class Percentage of any payment under any R/C Letter of Credit shall not relieve
any other Revolving Credit Lender of its obligation hereunder to make available to the Fronting
Bank its Class Percentage of any payment under any R/C Letter of Credit on the date required, as
specified above, but no other Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any Revolving Credit
Lender to make available to the Fronting Bank such Revolving Credit Lender’s Class Percentage of
any such payment. Whenever the Fronting Bank receives a payment of a reimbursement obligation with
respect to an R/C Letter of Credit as to which it has received any payments from the Revolving
Credit Lenders pursuant to this paragraph, the Fronting Bank shall pay to each Revolving Credit
Lender which has paid its Class Percentage thereof, in Dollars and in same day funds, an amount
equal to such Revolving Credit Lender’s Class Percentage thereof.

     (h) On each Calculation Date, the Fronting Bank shall determine the R/C Letter of Credit
Outstandings and shall give the Administrative Agent and the Borrower notice thereof.

     (i) The amendment, extension or renewal of a Letter of Credit or a request from the Borrower
therefor shall for purposes of this Agreement be deemed the issuance (or request therefor) of a
Letter of Credit as so amended, extended or renewed. No Existing Fronting Bank, in such capacity,
shall be under any obligation to amend, renew or extend any Existing Letter of Credit.

     Section 2.06. Issuance. Whenever the Borrower desires the Fronting Bank to issue a Letter of
Credit of either Class, it shall give to the Fronting Bank and the Administrative Agent at least
two (2) Business Days’ prior written (including telegraphic, telex, facsimile or cable
communication) notice (or such shorter period as may be agreed upon by the Administrative Agent,
the Borrower and the Fronting Bank) specifying the date on which the proposed Letter of

54

 

Credit is to be issued (which shall be a Business Day), the Class of such Letter of Credit,
the stated amount of the Letter of Credit so requested, the expiration date of such Letter of
Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and, if such proposed Letter of Credit is
an R/C Letter of Credit to be denominated in an Alternative Currency, such Alternative Currency.

     Section 2.07. Nature of Letter of Credit Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s reimbursement
obligations with respect to drawings made under any Letter of Credit shall be unconditional and
irrevocable and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all
circumstances, including, without limitation: (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of such
Letter of Credit; (ii) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which the
Borrower may have at any time against a beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or, in the case of a
drawing made under an R/C Letter of Credit, against any of the Revolving Credit Lenders, whether in
connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transaction;
(iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under a Letter of Credit of either
Class proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement
therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; (iv) payment by the Fronting Bank of any Letter
of Credit of either Class against presentation of a demand, draft or certificate or other document
which does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; (v) any other circumstance or
happening whatsoever, which is similar to any of the foregoing; or (vi) the fact that any Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing. Nothing in this Section 2.07 shall be construed to
limit any claim the Borrower may have against the Fronting Bank for any direct damages suffered by
the Borrower that are caused by the Fronting Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct in the
performance of its duties in such capacity.

     Section 2.08. Swing Line Loans.

     (a) The Swing Line. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein (including without
limitation Section 2.02), the Swing Line Lender agrees to make loans (each such loan, a “Swing Line
Loan”) to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day (other than the Closing Date) until
the Revolving Credit Maturity Date in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding
$50,000,000, notwithstanding the fact that such Swing Line Loans, when aggregated with the Class
Percentage of the Revolving Credit Lender acting as Swing Line Lender of the outstanding principal
amount of the Revolving Credit Loans and R/C Letter of Credit Outstandings, may exceed the amount
of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment; provided that after giving effect to any Swing Line
Loan and the risk participations purchased by the Revolving Credit Lenders as set forth in the last
sentence of this paragraph, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit
Loans of any Revolving Credit Lender, plus such Revolving Credit Lender’s Class Percentage of the
R/C Letter of Credit Outstandings, plus such Revolving Credit Lender’s Class Percentage of the
outstanding principal amount of all Swing Line Loans shall not exceed such Revolving Credit
Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the other terms
and conditions hereof, the Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow under this Section 2.08. Each
Swing Line Loan shall be an ABR Loan. Immediately upon the making of a Swing Line Loan, each
Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to,
purchase from the Swing Line Lender a risk participation in such Swing Line Loan in an amount equal
to the product of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Class Percentage times the principal amount of
such Swing Line Loan.

55

 

     (b) Borrowing Procedures. The Borrower shall give the Swing Line Lender and the
Administrative Agent prior written, telex, facsimile or telephonic (confirmed promptly in writing)
notice of each Swing Line Borrowing hereunder not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the
requested borrowing date; such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify (i) the amount to be
borrowed, which shall be a minimum of $100,000, and (ii) the requested borrowing date, which shall
be a Business Day. Promptly after receipt by the Swing Line Lender of any telephonic notice of
Swing Line Borrowing, the Swing Line Lender will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by
telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has also received such notice of Swing Line
Borrowing and, if not, the Swing Line Lender will notify the Administrative Agent (by telephone or
in writing) of the contents thereof. Unless the Swing Line Lender has received notice (by
telephone or in writing) from the Administrative Agent (including at the request of any Revolving
Credit Lender) prior to 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date of the proposed Swing Line
Borrowing (A) directing the Swing Line Lender not to make such Swing Line Loan as a result of the
limitations set forth in the proviso to the first sentence of Section 2.08(a), or (B) that one or
more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.02 is not then satisfied, then, subject to
the terms and conditions hereof, the Swing Line Lender will, not later than 3:00 p.m., New York
City time, on the borrowing date specified in the notice of Swing Line Borrowing, make the amount
of its Swing Line Loan available to the Borrower.

     (c) Repayment, Interest. The Borrower shall repay each Swing Line Loan on the Revolving
Credit Maturity Date; provided that on each day that a Revolving Credit Borrowing is made, the
Borrower shall repay Swing Line Loans then outstanding in an aggregate principal amount equal to
the amount of such Revolving Credit Borrowing (or, if less, all Swing Line Loans then outstanding).
Each Swing Line Loan shall bear interest as set forth in Section 2.10.

     (d) Prepayment. The Borrower may, upon notice to the Swing Line Lender (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent), at any time or from time to time, voluntarily prepay Swing Line Loans in
whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (1) such notice must be received by the
Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the
date of the prepayment, and (2) any such prepayment shall be in a minimum principal amount of
$100,000. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment. If such notice
is given by the Borrower, the Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified
in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein.

     (e) Refinancing of Swing Line Loans. (i) At any time the Borrower may request, or the Swing
Line Lender in its sole and absolute discretion may request, on behalf of the Borrower (which
hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swing Line Lender to so request on its behalf), that each
Revolving Credit Lender make an ABR Loan in an amount equal to such Revolving Credit Lender’s Class
Percentage of the amount of Swing Line Loans then outstanding; provided that if the aggregate
principal amount of Swing Line Loans outstanding on the last Business Day of any week exceeds
$15,000,000, then the Swing Line Lender shall make such request on such last Business Day of such
week. Such request shall be made in writing and in accordance with the requirements of Section
2.03(b), without regard to the minimum and multiples specified therein for the principal amount of
ABR Loans, but subject to Section 2.02 and the conditions set forth in Section 4.02. The Swing
Line Lender shall furnish the Borrower with a copy of the applicable

56

 

written request described in the preceding sentence promptly after delivering such request to
the Administrative Agent. Each Revolving Credit Lender shall make an amount equal to its Class
Percentage of the amount specified in such request available to the Administrative Agent in
immediately available funds for the account of the Swing Line Lender at the office of the
Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the day specified in such
request, whereupon, subject to Section 2.08(e)(ii), each Revolving Credit Lender that so makes
funds available shall be deemed to have made an ABR Loan to the Borrower in such amount. The
Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the Swing Line Lender.

     (ii) If for any reason any Swing Line Loan cannot be refinanced by such a
Revolving Credit Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.08(e)(i), the request for
ABR Loans submitted by the Swing Line Lender as set forth herein shall be deemed to
be a request by the Swing Line Lender that each of the Revolving Credit Lenders fund
its risk participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan and each Revolving Credit
Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line
Lender pursuant to Section 2.08(e)(i) shall be deemed payment in respect of such
participation.

     (iii) If any Revolving Credit Lender fails to make available to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender any amount required to
be paid by such Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this
Section 2.08(c) by the time specified in Section 2.08(e)(i), the Swing Line Lender
shall be entitled to recover from such Revolving Credit Lender (acting through the
Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period
from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is
immediately available to the Swing Line Lender at a rate per annum equal to the
applicable Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. A certificate of the
Swing Line Lender submitted to any Revolving Credit Lender (through the
Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (iii)
shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

     (iv) Each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans
or to purchase and fund risk participations in Swing Line Loans pursuant to this
Section 2.08(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any
circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other
right which such Revolving Credit Lender may have against the Swing Line Lender, the
Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the occurrence of any
event or circumstance which with the passage of time or giving of notice or both
would constitute an Event of Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or
condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided that each
Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to this
Section 2.08(e)(i) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (other
than delivery by the Borrower of a notice of Borrowing). No such funding of risk
participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to
repay Swing Line Loans, together with interest as provided herein.

57

 

     (f) Repayment of Participations. At any time after any Revolving Credit Lender has purchased
and funded a risk participation in a Swing Line Loan, if the Swing Line Lender receives any payment
on account of such Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender will distribute to such Lender its Class
Percentage of such payment (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect
the period of time during which such Lender’s risk participation was funded) in the same funds as
those received by the Swing Line Lender.

     (g) Interest for Account of Swing Line Lender. The Swing Line Lender shall be responsible for
invoicing the Borrower for interest on the Swing Line Loans. Until each Revolving Credit Lender
funds its ABR Loan or risk participation pursuant to this Section 2.08 to refinance such Revolving
Credit Lender’s Class Percentage of any Swing Line Loan, interest in respect of such Class
Percentage shall be solely for the account of the Swing Line Lender.

     (h) Payments Directly to Swing Line Lender. The Borrower shall make all payments of principal
and interest in respect of the Swing Line Loans directly to the Swing Line Lender.

     Section 2.09. Repayment of Loans and Unreimbursed Draws; Evidence of Debt.

     (a) Term Loans. The Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent (i) for the ratable
account of the Tranche B Lenders the aggregate principal amount of all Tranche B Term Loans
outstanding in twenty-eight (28) consecutive quarterly installments, the first twenty-seven (27) of
which shall be in the amount of 0.25% of total funded Tranche B Term Loans as of the date on which
the Tranche B Commitment shall have been automatically and permanently reduced to $0 pursuant to
Section 2.12(b) and the last of which shall be in the aggregate principal amount of the Tranche B
Term Loans then outstanding and (ii) for the ratable account of the Tranche C Lenders the aggregate
principal amount of all Tranche C Term Loans outstanding in thirty-two (32) consecutive quarterly
installments, the first thirty-one (31) of which shall be in the amount of 0.25% of total funded
Tranche C Term Loans as of the date on which the Tranche C Commitment shall have been automatically
and permanently reduced to $0 pursuant to Section 2.12(b) and the last of which shall be in the
aggregate principal amount of the Tranche C Term Loans then outstanding. Each of the foregoing
installments shall be reduced as a result of the application of prepayments of the Term Loans in
accordance with the order of priority set forth in Section 2.16(e). Each such payment shall be
made on each Quarterly Payment Date; provided that the final principal repayment installment of the
Term Loans of each Class shall be made (i) in the case of the Tranche B Term Loans, on the Tranche
B Maturity Date (including the date that shall be the Tranche B Maturity Date by operation of the
proviso in the definition of “Tranche B Maturity Date”) and (ii) in the case of the Tranche C Term
Loans, on the Tranche C Maturity Date, and in any event the final principal repayment installment
with respect to the Term Loans of each Class shall be in an amount equal to the aggregate principal
amount of the Term Loans of such Class outstanding on the date of the applicable final principal
repayment installment. “Quarterly Payment Date” shall mean (1) the last Business Day of the
calendar month in which the 90th day after the Closing Date occurs and (2) the last
Business Day of each calendar month that is the third calendar month after the one in which the
immediately preceding Quarterly Payment Date has occurred.

58

 

     (b) Revolving Credit Loans. The Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the
ratable account of the Revolving Credit Lenders on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date the aggregate
principal amount of all of the Revolving Credit Loans outstanding on such date.

     (c) 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 or participation in each Letter of Credit or Swing Line Loan in which such Lender is
participating, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from
time to time hereunder.

     (d) 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.

     (e) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (c) or (d) 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 or drafts drawn under any Letter of Credit in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement.

     (f) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such
event, the Borrower shall 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) in a
form furnished by the Administrative Agent and reasonably acceptable to the Borrower. Thereafter,
the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including
after assignment pursuant to Section 9.03(b)) 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 2.10. Interest on Loans.

     (a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.11, each ABR Loan shall bear interest (computed,
for ABR Loans wherein the Alternate Base Rate is determined by reference to the Federal Funds Rate,
on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days, and otherwise computed
on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 days) at a rate per annum
equal to the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

     (b) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.11, each Eurodollar Loan shall bear interest
(computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) at a rate per
annum equal, during each Interest Period applicable thereto, to the Adjusted LIBOR Rate for such
Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin.

     (c) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.11, each Swing Line Loan shall bear interest
(computed, for ABR Loans wherein the Alternate Base Rate is determined by reference

59

 

to the Federal Funds Rate, on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of
360 days, and otherwise computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of
365 days) at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

     (d) Accrued interest on all Loans and Swing Line Loans shall be payable in arrears on each
Interest Payment Date applicable thereto, at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise), after
such maturity on demand and upon any repayment or prepayment thereof (on the amount repaid or
prepaid).

     Section 2.11. Default Interest. If the Borrower shall default in the payment of the principal
of or interest on any Loan or Swing Line Loan or in the payment of any other amount becoming due
hereunder (other than the reimbursement pursuant to Section 2.05(e) of any draft drawn under a
Letter of Credit, which shall be governed by the provisions of such Section), whether at stated
maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, the Borrower shall on demand from time to time pay
interest, to the extent permitted by law, on such defaulted amount up to (but not including) the
date of actual payment (after as well as before judgment) at a rate per annum (computed on the
basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) equal to 2% above the then
applicable rate.

     Section 2.12. Termination or Reduction of Commitments and Term Letter of Credit Deposit
Amount.

     (a) Optional. Upon at least two (2) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative
Agent, the Borrower may at any time (i) in whole permanently terminate, or from time to time in
part permanently reduce, the Unused Total Revolving Credit Commitment, (ii) in whole permanently
terminate, or from time to time in part permanently reduce, the Term Letter of Credit Deposit
Amount, provided that immediately after giving effect thereto, the Term Letter of Credit Deposit
Amount shall not be less than the Term Letter of Credit Outstandings or (iii) during the Term
Availability Period, in whole permanently terminate, or from time to time in part permanently
reduce, the Total Tranche B Commitment or the Total Tranche C Commitment. Each such reduction of
the Unused Total Revolving Credit Commitment, the Term Letter of Credit Deposit Amount, the Total
Tranche B Commitment or the Total Tranche C Commitment shall be in the principal amount of
$5,000,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. Any reduction or termination,
as applicable, of the Unused Total Revolving Credit Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall
be deemed to be a reduction or termination, as applicable, in the amount of such reduction or
termination of the Total Revolving Credit Commitment and shall be applied pro rata to reduce the
Revolving Credit Commitment of each Revolving Credit Lender. Any reduction or termination, as
applicable, of the Total Tranche B Commitment or the Total Tranche C Commitment pursuant to this
Section 2.12 shall be applied pro rata to reduce the Tranche B Commitment or the Tranche C
Commitment of each Term Loan Lender, as the case may be. Simultaneously with each reduction or
termination, as applicable, of the Unused Total Revolving Credit Commitment, the Total Tranche B
Commitment or the Total Tranche C Commitment, as the case may be, pursuant to this Section 2.12,
the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Credit Lender
the Commitment Fee, and for the account of each Tranche B Lender and Tranche C Lender the Ticking
Fee (if any), accrued on the amount of the Unused Revolving Credit Commitment, the

60

 

Tranche B Commitment and the Tranche C Commitment, as applicable, of such Lender so terminated
or reduced through the date thereof.

     (b) Mandatory. On the date of each Term Borrowing, the Term Loan Commitments of the
applicable Class shall be automatically and permanently reduced by the amount of such Term
Borrowing. The Tranche B Commitment and the Tranche C Commitment of each Term Loan Lender, shall
be automatically and permanently reduced to $0 at the close of business on the date which is the
earliest of (i) the last day of the Term Availability Period, (ii) the date on which the Borrower
shall have borrowed the full amount of the Tranche B Commitments and the Tranche C Commitments, and
(iii) the date on which the Borrower shall have made a fourth Borrowing of Term Loans; provided,
however, that solely for the purposes of this clause (iii), Borrowings of Tranche B Term Loans and
Tranche C Term Loans made on the same date shall be deemed to constitute a single Borrowing of Term
Loans. The Total Revolving Credit Commitment shall be automatically and permanently reduced to $0
and the Borrower shall pay the Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Line Loans in full and, if any R/C
Letter of Credit remains outstanding, comply with Section 2.05(c), in each case on the Revolving
Credit Maturity Date. The Term Letter of Credit Deposit Amount shall be automatically and
permanently reduced to the extent the Borrower shall not have replenished the Term Letter of Credit
Account in accordance with Section 2.04(b)(ii).

     Section 2.13. Alternate Rate of Interest. In the event, and on each occasion, that on the day
two (2) Business Days prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Loan, the
Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding
upon the Borrower absent manifest error) that reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the
applicable Adjusted LIBOR Rate, the Administrative Agent shall, as soon as practicable thereafter,
give written or telegraphic notice of such determination to the Borrower and the Lenders of the
applicable Class, and any request by the Borrower for a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans (including
pursuant to a refinancing with Eurodollar Loans) pursuant to Section 2.03 or 2.14 shall be deemed a
request for a Borrowing of ABR Loans. After such notice shall have been given and until the
circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, each request for a Borrowing of
Eurodollar Loans shall be deemed to be a request for a Borrowing of ABR Loans.

     Section 2.14. Refinancing of Loans. The Borrower shall have the right, at any time, on three
(3) Business Days’ prior irrevocable written notice to the Administrative Agent (which notice, to
be effective, must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City
time, on the third Business Day preceding the date of any refinancing), (x) to refinance (without
the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 as a condition to such refinancing)
any outstanding Borrowing or Borrowings of Loans of one Type (or a portion thereof) of any Class
with a Borrowing of Loans of the other Type of such Class or (y) to continue an outstanding
Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans of any Class for an additional Interest Period, subject to the
following:

     (a) as a condition to the refinancing of ABR Loans with Eurodollar Loans and to the
continuation of Eurodollar Loans for an additional Interest Period, no Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing at the time of such refinancing;

61

 

     (b) if less than a full Borrowing of Loans shall be refinanced, such refinancing shall be made
pro rata among the Lenders of the relevant Class in accordance with the respective principal
amounts of the Loans comprising such Borrowing held by such Lenders immediately prior to such
refinancing;

     (c) the aggregate principal amount of Loans being refinanced shall be at least $5,000,000 or
any integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, provided that no partial refinancing of a
Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans shall result in the Eurodollar Loans remaining outstanding pursuant
to such Borrowing being less than $5,000,000 in aggregate principal amount;

     (d) each Lender of the relevant Class shall effect each refinancing by applying the proceeds
of its new Eurodollar Loan or ABR Loan, as the case may be, to its Loan being refinanced;

     (e) the Interest Period with respect to a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans effected by a
refinancing or in respect to the Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans being continued as Eurodollar Loans
shall commence on the date of refinancing or the expiration of the current Interest Period
applicable to such continuing Borrowing, as the case may be;

     (f) unless the Borrower makes the reimbursement payment provided for under Section 2.17(b), a
Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans may be refinanced only on the last day of an Interest Period
applicable thereto; and

     (g) each request for a refinancing with a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans which fails to state
an applicable Interest Period shall be deemed to be a request for an Interest Period of one month.

In the event that the Borrower shall not give notice to refinance any Borrowing of Eurodollar
Loans, or to continue such Borrowing as Eurodollar Loans, or shall not be entitled to refinance or
continue such Borrowing as Eurodollar Loans, in each case as provided above, such Borrowing shall
automatically be refinanced with a Borrowing of ABR Loans at the expiration of the then-current
Interest Period. The Administrative Agent shall, after it receives notice from the Borrower,
promptly give each Lender notice of any refinancing, in whole or part, of any Loan made by such
Lender.

     Section 2.15. Mandatory Prepayments of Revolving Credit Loans.

     (a) If at any time the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans
and Swing Line Loans plus the aggregate R/C Letter of Credit Outstandings exceeds the lesser of (x)
the Total Revolving Credit Commitment or (y) the Borrowing Base, the Borrower will within one (1)
Business Day (i) prepay the Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Line Loans (by prepaying Swing Line
Loans first, until all outstanding Swing Line Loans are prepaid, and then prepaying Revolving
Credit Loans) in an amount necessary to cause the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding
Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Line Loans plus the aggregate R/C Letter of Credit Outstandings,
including unreimbursed draws, to be equal to or less than the lesser of (x) the Total Revolving
Credit Commitment and (y) the Borrowing Base, and (ii) if, after giving effect to the prepayment in
full of the Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Line

62

 

Loans, the aggregate R/C Letter of Credit Outstandings in excess of the amount of cash held in
the R/C Letter of Credit Account exceeds the lesser of (x) the Total Revolving Credit Commitment or
(y) the Borrowing Base, deposit into the R/C Letter of Credit Account an amount equal to 105% of
the amount by which the aggregate R/C Letter of Credit Outstandings in excess of the amount of cash
held in the R/C Letter of Credit Account so exceeds the lesser of (x) the Total Revolving Credit
Commitment or (y) the Borrowing Base. Any such amount deposited in the R/C Letter of Credit
Account pursuant to this Section 2.15(a) shall, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, be made available or refunded to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent to the extent
at any time the lesser of (x) the Total Revolving Credit Commitment and (y) the Borrowing Base
exceeds the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Line
Loans plus the aggregate R/C Letter of Credit Outstandings.

     (b) Within three (3) Business Days of receipt by a Group Member of the Net Cash Proceeds of
any Asset Sale or Recovery Event that results from the sale or other disposition of Accounts that
are Collateral or Inventory that is Collateral, an amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds
shall be applied to prepay the Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Line Loans then outstanding (by
prepaying Swing Line Loans first, until all outstanding Swing Line Loans are prepaid, and then
prepaying Revolving Credit Loans). No prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.15(b) shall
reduce the Total Revolving Credit Commitment, and amounts prepaid pursuant to this Section 2.15(b)
may be reborrowed, subject to the other terms and conditions hereof.

     (c) Without duplication of any prepayment of the Revolving Credit Loans and the Swing Line
Loans made pursuant to Sections 2.15(a) or 2.15(b), at the close of each Business Day during each
Sweep Period the Administrative Agent shall apply any amounts then on deposit in the Concentration
Account to prepay the Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Line Loans then outstanding (by prepaying
Swing Line Loans first, until all outstanding Swing Line Loans are prepaid, and then prepaying
Revolving Credit Loans), subject to the provisions of Sections 2.20(b) and 2.20(c), and the
Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to do so. No prepayment made pursuant to this
Section 2.15(c) shall reduce the Total Revolving Credit Commitment, and amounts prepaid pursuant to
this Section 2.15(c) may be reborrowed, subject to the other terms and conditions hereof.

     Section 2.16. Mandatory Prepayments of Term Loans.

     (a) Prior to the Tranche A Term Loan Repayment Date, except as set forth in the immediately
succeeding sentence with respect to the incurrence of Permitted Subordinated Indebtedness, an
amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds of any incurrence of Indebtedness of any Loan Party
(excluding any Indebtedness permitted to be incurred under Section 6.02) shall be applied to the
prepayment of the Tranche B Term Loans as set forth in Section 2.16(e) on the date of such
incurrence. Prior to the Tranche A Term Loan Repayment Date, an amount equal to 100% of the Net
Cash Proceeds of any incurrence of Permitted Subordinated Indebtedness (including Permitted
Designated Subordinated Indebtedness) of any Loan Party shall be applied to the prepayment of the
Tranche B Term Loans as set forth in Section 2.16(e) on the 121st day (the “Payment
Date”) after the date of such incurrence (as such date may be extended pursuant to the proviso set
forth at the end of this sentence) to the extent

63

 

such Net Cash Proceeds are (i) not from the issuance of Permitted Designated Subordinated
Indebtedness and (ii) not used prior to such 121st day to make (u) a Capital Expenditure, (v) a
Restricted Payment, (w) a Board-Approved Investment or a Proceeds Investment (in either case so
long as the Borrower shall have complied with the provisions of Section 5.09, to the extent
applicable, with respect to any assets acquired by any Group Member pursuant to such Board-Approved
Investment or Proceeds Investment, as the case may be), (x) a Permitted Acquisition (so long as the
Borrower shall have complied with the provisions of Section 5.09, to the extent applicable, with
respect to any assets acquired by any Group Member pursuant to such Permitted Acquisition), (y)
Permitted Open Market Purchases or (z) a repayment of the Tranche A Term Loans; provided that if on
such 121st day a Board-Approved Investment, a Proceeds Investment, a Permitted
Acquisition or Permitted Open Market Purchases shall not have been consummated but one or more
Group Members shall have entered into a binding letter of intent or definitive purchase
documentation with respect thereto (or, with respect to Permitted Open Market Purchases, shall have
made a binding offer, subject to the conditions set forth therein), then the Payment Date shall be
extended to the 181st day after such incurrence, and on such day the relevant Net Cash
Proceeds shall be applied to the prepayment of the Tranche B Term Loans as specified above to the
extent such Net Cash Proceeds are not used prior to such 181st day to consummate (x) a
Board-Approved Investment or a Proceeds Investment (in either case so long as the Borrower shall
have complied with the provisions of Section 5.09, to the extent applicable, with respect to any
assets acquired by any Group Member pursuant to such Board-Approved Investment or Proceeds
Investment, as the case may be), (y) a Permitted Acquisition (so long as the Borrower shall have
complied with the provisions of Section 5.09, to the extent applicable, with respect to any assets
acquired by any Group Member pursuant to such Permitted Acquisition), or (z) Permitted Open Market
Purchases.

     (b) Unless a Reinvestment Notice is delivered to the Administrative Agent within three (3)
Business Days after the day of receipt by a Group Member of the Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sale
or Recovery Event that results from the sale or other disposition of, or payment with respect to,
any of the Collateral (including without limitation the PP&E Collateral, but excluding Accounts
that are Collateral or Inventory that is Collateral), an amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash
Proceeds shall be applied to the prepayment of the Tranche B Term Loans (or, if the Tranche B
Repayment Date has occurred, the Tranche C Term Loans) as set forth in Section 2.16(e) within ten
(10) Business Days after the day of receipt of any such Net Cash Proceeds by any Group Member;
provided that no prepayment of the Term Loans of either Class shall be required to be made pursuant
to this subsection until the amount of Net Cash Proceeds to be applied to make such prepayment is
at least equal to $10,000,000. If a Reinvestment Notice is timely delivered pursuant to the
immediately preceding sentence, on each Reinvestment Prepayment Date, an amount equal to the
Reinvestment Prepayment Amount with respect to the relevant Reinvestment Event shall be applied to
the prepayment of the Term Loans of the applicable Class as set forth in Section 2.16(e).

     (c) Commencing with the fiscal year of the Borrower ending December 31, 2008, and ending with
the fiscal year preceding the fiscal year in which the Tranche A Term Loan Repayment Date occurs,
the Applicable Amount of the Adjusted Excess Cash Flow for any fiscal year of the Borrower shall be
applied to the prepayment of the Tranche B Term Loans as set forth in Section 2.16(e) on the
Prepayment Application Date.

64

 

     (d) Commencing with the fiscal year of the Borrower ending December 31, 2008, and ending with
the fiscal year preceding the fiscal year in which the Tranche A Term Loan Repayment Date occurs,
the Applicable Amount of the Adjusted Positive EBITDA Variance for any fiscal year of the Borrower
shall be applied to the prepayment of the Tranche B Term Loans as set forth in Section 2.16(e) on
the Prepayment Application Date.

     (e) Any amount of Net Cash Proceeds, any Applicable Amount of the Adjusted Excess Cash Flow,
any Applicable Amount of the Adjusted Positive EBITDA Variance or any other amount required to be
applied to the prepayment of the Term Loans of either Class pursuant to this Section 2.16 shall be
allocated ratably among the Term Loan Lenders of the applicable Class ratably in accordance with
their respective Term Loans of such Class. Each prepayment of Term Loans of either Class made
pursuant to this Section 2.16 shall be applied to reduce ratably the then remaining principal
repayment installments of the Term Loans of such Class (including the final installment of such
Term Loans due on the Tranche B Maturity Date or the Tranche C Maturity Date, as applicable) set
forth in Section 2.09(a). The application of any prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to this
Section 2.16 shall be made, first, to ABR Loans (until all ABR Loans are paid in full) and, second,
to Eurodollar Loans.

     (f) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of any mandatory prepayment
of Term Loans required to be made pursuant to clauses (a) through (d) of this Section 2.16 (the
aggregate amount of such prepayment to be made in any single instance, a “Term Payment Amount”) at
least five (5) Business Days prior to the date of such prepayment (a “Term Prepayment Date”). Each
such notice shall specify the applicable Term Prepayment Date and provide a reasonably detailed
calculation of the applicable Term Payment Amount. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify
each Term Loan Lender of the applicable Class of the contents of the Borrower’s prepayment notice
and of such Term Loan Lender’s ratable share (such ratable share to be calculated by dividing such
Term Loan Lender’s Term Loans of the applicable Class by the total Term Loans of the applicable
Class then outstanding) of the Term Payment Amount. Any Term Loan Lender of the applicable Class
(a “Declining Lender”) may elect, by delivering, not less than three (3) Business Days prior to the
applicable Term Prepayment Date, a written notice that any mandatory prepayment otherwise required
to be made with respect to the Term Loans held by such Term Loan Lender pursuant to clauses (a)
through (d) of this Section 2.16 not be made, in which event the portion of such prepayment which
otherwise would have been allocated to such Declining Lenders (i) in the case of a prepayment of
Tranche B Term Loans required to be made pursuant to clause (b) of this Section 2.16, shall instead
be applied to prepay Tranche C Term Loans in accordance Sections 2.16(e) and 2.16(f) or (ii) in all
other cases, shall instead be retained by the Borrower (the “Retained Amount”). To the extent that
any portion of the Retained Amount shall not have been used by the Borrower to repay any of its
other Indebtedness by the date (the “Cut-off Date”) that is thirty (30) Business Days after the
applicable Term Prepayment Date, on the Cut-off Date the Borrower shall prepay the Term Loans of
the Declining Lenders of the applicable Class, in an aggregate principal amount equal to such
unused portion (it being understood that no prepayment of Tranche C Term Loans of Declining Lenders
shall be required pursuant to this sentence prior to the Tranche B Repayment Date). Any prepayment
of Tranche C Term Loans required to be made pursuant to the preceding sentence (but not any other
prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.16) prior to the Non-Call Expiration Date shall be
accompanied by the Applicable Premium. It is understood that, pursuant to Section 9.10, any
modification, amendment or waiver of this clause (f) shall

65

 

require the consent of the Required Lenders (and shall not require the consent of any other
group or number of Lenders).

     Section 2.17. Optional Prepayment of Loans; Reimbursement of Lenders.

     (a) Subject to following proviso, the Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time
to time to prepay any Loans without premium or penalty (except for any breakage costs associated
with Eurodollar Loans), in whole or in part; provided, that any such prepayment of Tranche C Term
Loans made prior to the Non-Call Expiration Date shall be accompanied by the Applicable Premium.
All such prepayments shall be made (x) with respect to Eurodollar Loans, upon at least three (3)
Business Days’ prior written, telex, facsimile or telephonic (confirmed promptly in writing) notice
to the Administrative Agent and (y) with respect to ABR Loans on the same Business Day if written,
telex, facsimile or telephonic (confirmed promptly in writing) notice is received by the
Administrative Agent prior to 1:00 p.m., New York City time; provided, however, that (i) each such
partial prepayment shall be in integral multiples of $1,000,000, (ii) no prepayment of Eurodollar
Loans shall be permitted pursuant to this Section 2.17(a) other than on the last day of an Interest
Period applicable thereto unless such prepayment is accompanied by the payment of the amounts
described in clause (i) of the first sentence of Section 2.17(b), and (iii) no partial prepayment
of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans shall result in the aggregate principal amount of the Eurodollar
Loans remaining outstanding pursuant to such Borrowing being less than $5,000,000. Each notice of
prepayment shall specify the prepayment date, the principal amount, Class and Type of the Loans to
be prepaid, and in the case of Eurodollar Loans, the Borrowing or Borrowings pursuant to which
made, shall be irrevocable and shall commit the Borrower to prepay such Loans by the amount and on
the date stated therein. The Administrative Agent shall, promptly after receiving notice from the
Borrower hereunder, notify each Lender of the relevant Class of the principal amount of the Loans
held by such Lender which are to be prepaid and the prepayment date. Any partial prepayment of the
Term Loans by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.17 shall be applied to reduce the then
remaining principal repayment installments of the Term Loans in forward order of maturity.

     (b) The Borrower shall reimburse each Lender of the relevant Class on demand for any loss
incurred or to be incurred by it in the reemployment of the funds released (i) resulting from any
prepayment (for any reason whatsoever, including, without limitation, refinancing with ABR Loans)
of any Eurodollar Loan required or permitted under this Agreement, if such Loan is prepaid prior to
the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan or (ii) in the event that after the Borrower
delivers a notice of Borrowing under Section 2.03 in respect of Eurodollar Loans, such Loans are
not made on the first day of the Interest Period specified in such notice of Borrowing for any
reason other than a breach by such Lender of its obligations hereunder. Such loss shall be the
amount as reasonably determined by such Lender as the excess, if any, of (A) the amount of interest
which would have accrued to such Lender on the amount so paid or not borrowed at a rate of interest
equal to the Adjusted LIBOR Rate for such Loan, for the period from the date of such payment or
failure to borrow to the last day (x) in the case of a payment or refinancing with ABR Loans prior
to the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan, of the then current Interest Period for such
Loan, or (y) in the case of such failure to borrow, of the Interest Period for such Loan which
would have commenced on the date of such failure to borrow, over (B) the amount of interest which
would have accrued to such Lender on such amount by placing such amount on

66

 

deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the London interbank market. Each
Lender of the relevant Class shall deliver to the Borrower from time to time one or more
certificates setting forth the amount of such loss as determined by such Lender.

     (c) In the event the Borrower fails to prepay any Loan on the date specified in any prepayment
notice delivered pursuant to Section 2.17(a), the Borrower on demand by any Lender of the relevant
Class shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender any amounts required to
compensate such Lender for any loss, cost or expenses incurred by reason of the acquisition of
deposits or other funds by such Lender to fulfill deposit obligations incurred in anticipation of
such prepayment, but without duplication of any amounts paid under Section 2.17(b). Each Lender of
the relevant Class shall deliver to the Borrower from time to time one or more certificates setting
forth the amount of such loss as determined by such Lender.

     Section 2.18. Reserve Requirements; Change in Circumstances.

     (a) Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if after the date of this Agreement any change
in applicable law or regulation or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any
Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof (whether or not
having the force of law) shall change the basis of taxation of payments to any Lender of the
principal of or interest on any Eurodollar Loan made by such Lender or any fees or other amounts
payable hereunder (other than changes in respect of Taxes, Other Taxes and taxes imposed on, or
measured by, the net income or overall gross receipts or franchise taxes of such Lender by the
jurisdiction in which such Lender has its principal office or in which the applicable lending
office for such Eurodollar Loan is located or by any political subdivision or taxing authority
therein, or by any other jurisdiction or by any political subdivision or taxing authority therein
other than a jurisdiction in which such Lender would not be subject to tax but for the execution
and performance of this Agreement), or shall 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 such Lender (except any such reserve requirement which is reflected in the Adjusted
LIBOR Rate) or shall impose on such Lender or the London interbank market any other condition
affecting this Agreement or the Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender, 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 to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of
principal, interest or otherwise) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then the
Borrower will pay to such Lender in accordance with paragraph (c) below such additional amount or
amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

     (b) If the adoption or effectiveness after the date hereof of any law, rule, regulation or
guideline regarding capital adequacy, or any change in any of the foregoing or in the
interpretation or administration of any of the foregoing by any governmental authority, central
bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance
by any Lender (or any lending office of such Lender) or any Lender’s holding company with any
request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any
such authority, central bank or comparable agency, 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, the Loans made by such Lender

67

 

pursuant hereto, such Lender’s Commitment hereunder or the issuance of, or participation in,
any Letter of Credit or participation in any Swing Line Loan by such Lender to a level below that
which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such adoption,
change or compliance (taking into account Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s
holding company with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be
material, then from time to time the Borrower shall 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 each Lender setting forth such amount or amounts as shall be necessary to
compensate such Lender or its holding company as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) above, as the
case may be, shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The
Borrower shall pay each Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate delivered to it
within ten (10) days after its receipt of the same. Any Lender receiving any such payment shall
promptly make a refund thereof to the Borrower if the law, regulation, guideline or change in
circumstances giving rise to such payment is subsequently deemed or held to be invalid or
inapplicable.

     (d) Failure on the part of any Lender to demand compensation for any increased costs or
reduction in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital with respect to any
period shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand compensation with respect to
such period or any other period; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a
Lender pursuant to this Section 2.18 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, as the case may be, 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 2.19. Change in Legality.

     (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement, if (x) any
change after the date of this Agreement in any law or regulation or in the interpretation thereof
by any Governmental Authority charged with the administration thereof shall make it unlawful for a
Lender to make or maintain a Eurodollar Loan or to give effect to its obligations as contemplated
hereby with respect to a Eurodollar Loan or (y) at any time any Lender determines that the making
or continuance of any of its Eurodollar Loans has become impracticable as a result of a contingency
occurring after the date hereof which adversely affects the London interbank market or the position
of such Lender in such market, then, by written notice to the Borrower, such Lender may (i) declare
that Eurodollar Loans will not thereafter be made by such Lender hereunder, whereupon any request
by the Borrower for a Eurodollar Borrowing shall, as to such Lender only, be deemed a request for
an ABR Loan unless such declaration shall be subsequently withdrawn; and (ii) require that all
outstanding Eurodollar Loans made by it be converted to ABR Loans, in which event all such
Eurodollar Loans shall be automatically converted to ABR Loans as of the effective date of such
notice as provided in paragraph (b) below. In the event any Lender shall exercise its rights under
clause (i) or (ii) of this paragraph (a), all payments and prepayments of principal which would
otherwise have been

68

 

applied to repay the Eurodollar Loans that would have been made by such Lender or the
converted Eurodollar Loans of such Lender shall instead be applied to repay the ABR Loans made by
such Lender in lieu of, or resulting from the conversion of, such Eurodollar Loans.

     (b) For purposes of this Section 2.19, a notice to the Borrower by any Lender pursuant to
paragraph (a) above shall be effective, if lawful, and if any Eurodollar Loans shall then be
outstanding, on the last day of the then-current Interest Period, otherwise, such notice shall be
effective on the date of receipt by the Borrower.

     Section 2.20. Pro Rata Treatment, Application of Payments, etc.

     (a) All payments and repayments of principal, interest and Applicable Premium in respect of
Loans of any Class (except as provided in Sections 2.16(f), 2.18 and 2.19) shall be made for the
pro rata benefit of the Lenders of such Class in accordance with their respective Class
Percentages. All payments of Commitment Fees and Letter of Credit Fees (other than those payable
to a Fronting Bank) shall be made for the pro rata benefit of the Revolving Credit Lenders in
accordance with their Revolving Credit Commitments. All payments of Ticking Fees in respect of the
Total Tranche B Commitment and the Total Tranche C Commitment shall be made for the pro rata
benefit of the Term Loan Lenders of each applicable Class in accordance with their Tranche B

be (i) except as otherwise provided in Section 2.21, net of any tax applicable to the Borrower and
(ii) made in Dollars in immediately available funds, without defense, setoff or counterclaim and
free of any restriction or condition, at the office of the Administrative Agent by 12:00 noon, New
York City time, on the date on which such payment shall be due. Interest in respect of any Loan
hereunder shall accrue from and including the date of such Loan to but excluding the date on which
such Loan is paid in full or converted to a Loan of a different Type.

     (b) All proceeds from the sale of, or other realization upon, all or any part of the PP&E

from the Collateral Trustee pursuant to Section 3.4(b) of the Collateral Trust Agreement) pursuant
to the exercise of remedies with respect to such Collateral shall be applied as follows:

     First, to pay the then unreimbursed expenses (if any) of the Administrative Agent in
connection with such sale or other realization, including reasonable compensation to agents of and

amount of any other PP&E Priority Obligations pro rata among the holders of such other PP&E
Priority Obligations, until each such amount has been paid in full.

     (d) If, in the event that both PP&E Collateral and Borrowing Base Collateral are subject to a
sale or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral pursuant to the exercise of
remedies with respect to Collateral in a single transaction or series of related transactions, the
aggregate sales price shall not have been allocated between PP&E Collateral and Borrowing Base
Collateral disposed of in such transaction or series of transactions in any agreement with respect
to such sale or other realization then, solely for purposes of Sections 2.20(b) and 2.20(c), the
aggregate sales price shall be allocated as follows: the portion allocable to the PP&E Collateral
shall be the fair market value thereof, and the balance of the aggregate sales price shall be
allocable to Borrowing Base Collateral (unless the Required Term Lenders and the Required Revolving
Credit Lenders shall, among themselves, agree to any other allocation, in which case such
allocation shall govern).

     Section 2.21. Taxes.

     (a) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 2.21, any and all payments by the Borrower
hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all current

71

 

or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities
with respect thereto, excluding (i) taxes imposed on or measured by the net income, net profit or
overall gross receipts of the Administrative Agent or any Lender (or any transferee or assignee
thereof, including a participation holder (any such entity being called a “Transferee”)) and
franchise taxes imposed on the Administrative Agent or any Lender (or Transferee) by the United
States or any jurisdiction under the laws of which the Administrative Agent or any such Lender (or
Transferee) is organized or in which the applicable lending office of any such Lender (or
Transferee) or applicable office of the Administrative Agent, is located or any political
subdivision thereof or by any other jurisdiction or by any political subdivision or taxing
authority therein other than a jurisdiction in which the Administrative Agent or such Lender (or
Transferee) would not be subject to tax but for the execution and performance of this Agreement and
(ii) taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings (“Amounts”) with respect to
payments hereunder to a Lender (or Transferee) or the Administrative Agent in accordance with laws
in effect on the later of the date of this Agreement and the date such Lender (or Transferee) or
the Administrative Agent becomes a Lender (or Transferee or Administrative Agent, as the case may
be) but not excluding, with respect to such Lender (or Transferee) or the Administrative Agent, any
increase in such Amounts solely as a result of any change in such laws occurring after such later
date or any Amounts that would not have been imposed but for actions (other than actions
contemplated by this Agreement) taken by the Borrower after such later date (all such non-excluded
taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter
referred to as “Taxes”). If the Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in
respect of any sum payable hereunder to the Lenders (or any Transferee) or the Administrative
Agent, (i) the sum payable shall be increased by the amount necessary so that after making all
required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section)
such Lender (or Transferee) or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) shall receive an
amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower
shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the
relevant taxing authority or other Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

     (b) In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay any current or future stamp or documentary taxes
or any other excise or property taxes, charges, assessments or similar levies that arise from any
payment made hereunder or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with
respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

     (c) The Borrower will indemnify each Lender (or Transferee) and the Administrative Agent for
the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes paid by such Lender (or Transferee) or the Administrative
Agent, as the case may be, and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising
therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or
legally asserted by the relevant taxing authority or other Governmental Authority. Such
indemnification shall be made within thirty (30) days after the date any Lender (or Transferee) or
the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, makes written demand therefor. If a Lender (or
Transferee) or the Administrative Agent shall become aware that it is entitled to receive a refund
in respect of Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower pursuant to
this Section, it shall promptly notify the Borrower of the availability of such refund and shall,
within thirty (30) days after receipt of a request by the Borrower, apply for

72

 

such refund at the Borrower’s expense. If any Lender (or Transferee) or the Administrative
Agent receives a refund in respect of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified
by the Borrower pursuant to this Section, it shall promptly notify the Borrower of such refund and
shall, within thirty (30) days after receipt of a request by the Borrower (or promptly upon
receipt, if the Borrower has requested application for such refund pursuant hereto), repay such
refund to the Borrower (to the extent of amounts that have been paid by the Borrower under this
Section with respect to such refund plus interest that is received by the Lender (or Transferee) or
the Administrative Agent as part of the refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of such Lender
(or Transferee) or the Administrative Agent and without additional interest thereon; provided that
the Borrower, upon the request of such Lender (or Transferee) or the Administrative Agent, agrees
to return such refund (plus penalties, interest or other charges) to such Lender (or Transferee) or
the Administrative Agent in the event such Lender (or Transferee) or the Administrative Agent is
required to repay such refund, and such Lender (or Transferee) or the Administrative Agent shall
certify to the Borrower that such refund has in fact been so repaid and provide evidence of such
repayment reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower. Nothing contained in this sub-Section (c) shall
require any Lender (or Transferee) or the Administrative Agent to make available any of its tax
returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems to be confidential).

     (d) Within thirty (30) days after the date of any payment of Taxes or Other Taxes withheld by
the Borrower in respect of any payment to any Lender (or Transferee) or the Administrative Agent,
the Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its address referred to on the signature
pages hereof, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof.

     (e) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement contained herein, the agreements
and obligations contained in this Section 2.21 shall survive the payment in full of the principal
of and interest on all Loans made hereunder.

     (f) Each Lender (and Transferee) and the Administrative Agent shall, if not a United States
Person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code), on or prior to the Closing
Date (in the case of each Lender listed on the signature pages hereof on the Closing Date) or on or
prior to the date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it becomes a Lender (in the
case of each other Lender), deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent such certificates,
documents and other evidence, as required by the Code or Treasury Regulations issued pursuant
thereto, including two original copies of (A) Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (unless such Lender
(or Transferee) or the Administrative Agent is an “exempt recipient” as defined in Treasury
Regulations Section 1.6049-4(c) for which no withholding is required) or (B) Internal Revenue
Service Forms W-8BEN or W-8ECI and any other certificate or statement of exemption required by
Treasury Regulations, properly completed and duly executed by such Lender (or Transferee) or the
Administrative Agent to establish that such payment is (i) not subject to United States Federal
withholding tax under the Code because such payment is effectively connected with the conduct by
such Lender (or Transferee) or the Administrative Agent of a trade or business in the United States
or (ii) totally exempt from United States Federal withholding tax or subject to a reduced rate of
such tax under a provision of an applicable tax treaty. Unless the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent have received forms or other documents satisfactory to them indicating that such payments
hereunder are not

73

 

subject to United States Federal withholding tax or are subject to such tax at a rate reduced
by an applicable tax treaty, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent shall withhold taxes from
such payments at the applicable statutory rate.

     (g) The Borrower shall not be required to pay any additional amounts to any Lender (or
Transferee) or the Administrative Agent in respect of United States Federal withholding tax
pursuant to sub-Section (a) above if the obligation to pay such additional amounts would not have
arisen but for a failure by such Lender (or Transferee) or the Administrative Agent to comply with
the provisions of sub-Section (f) above.

     (h) Any Lender (or Transferee) or the Administrative Agent claiming any additional amounts
payable pursuant to this Section 2.21 shall use reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and
regulatory restrictions) to file any certificate or document requested by the Borrower or to change
the jurisdiction of its applicable lending office if the making of such a filing or change would
avoid the need for or reduce the amount of any such additional amounts that may thereafter accrue
and would not, in the sole determination of such Lender (or Transferee) or the Administrative
Agent, be otherwise materially disadvantageous to such Lender (or Transferee) or the Administrative
Agent.

     Section 2.22. Certain Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the
respective accounts of CGMI, JPMSI, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, the fees set forth in
that certain fee letter dated February 23, 2007 among the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers and
the Borrower (the “Fee Letter”) at the times set forth therein.

     Section 2.23. Commitment Fee; Ticking Fee.

     (a) The Borrower shall pay to the Revolving Credit Lenders a commitment fee (the “Commitment
Fee”) for the period from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the Revolving Credit
Maturity Date (or the earlier date of termination of the Total Revolving Credit Commitment)
calculated (on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) at a rate
equal to the Applicable Margin on the average daily Unused Total Revolving Credit Commitment during
the preceding quarter. The issuance of R/C Letters of Credit shall be treated as usage of the
Total Revolving Credit Commitment. Such Commitment Fee, to the extent then accrued, shall be
payable (x) quarterly in arrears on the first calendar day of each April, July, October and
January, (y) on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date (or the earlier date of termination of the Total
Revolving Credit Commitment) and (z) as provided in Section 2.12 hereof, upon any reduction or
termination in whole or in part of the Total Revolving Credit Commitment.

     (b) The Borrower shall pay a ticking fee (the “Ticking Fee”) (i) to the Tranche B Lenders for
the period from and including the 30th day following the Closing Date to and including the date of
termination of the Tranche B Commitment and (ii) to the Tranche C Lenders for the period from and
including the 30th day following the Closing Date to and including the date of termination of the
Tranche C Commitment, in each case calculated (on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed
over a year of 360 days) at the rate of 0.75% per annum on the Total Tranche B Commitment or the
Total Tranche C Commitment, as the case may be. Such fee shall be payable to the Tranche B Lenders
on the date of termination of the

74

 

Tranche B Commitment and to the Tranche C Lenders on the date of termination of the Tranche C
Commitment.

     Section 2.24. Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower shall pay with respect to each R/C Letter
of Credit (i) to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Revolving Credit Lenders a fee
calculated (on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) at a rate
per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for Revolving Credit Loans that are Eurodollar Loans on
the undrawn stated amount thereof, and (ii) to the Fronting Bank its customary fees for issuance,
amendments and processing referred to in Section 2.05. In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay the
Fronting Bank for its account a fronting fee in respect of each Letter of Credit issued by the
Fronting Bank, for the period from and including the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit to
and including the date of termination of such Letter of Credit, computed at the rate of 0.125% per
annum, and payable at times to be determined by the Fronting Bank, the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent. Accrued fees described in clause (i) of the first sentence of this paragraph
in respect of each R/C Letter of Credit shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the first
day of each April, July, October and January and on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, or such
earlier date as the Total Revolving Credit Commitment is terminated. Accrued fees described in
clause (ii) of the first sentence of this paragraph in respect of each Letter of Credit shall be
payable at times to be determined by the Fronting Bank, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

     Section 2.25. Nature of Fees. All Fees shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately
available funds, to the Administrative Agent for the respective accounts of the Administrative
Agent and the applicable Lenders, as provided herein and in the Fee Letter. Once paid, none of the
Fees shall be refundable under any circumstances.

     Section 2.26. Right of Set-Off; Sharing. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, upon the
occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent and 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 Indebtedness at any time owing by the Administrative Agent and
each such Lender to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all of the
obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under the Loan Documents, irrespective of
whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under any Loan Document and although such
obligations may not have been accelerated. Each Lender and the Administrative Agent agrees
promptly to notify the Borrower after any such set-off and application made by such Lender or by
the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, provided that the failure to give such notice shall
not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of each Lender and the
Administrative Agent under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies which such
Lender and the Administrative Agent may have upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any
Event of Default.

     Section 2.27. Replacement of Certain Lenders. In the event a Lender (“Affected Lender”) shall
have: (i) failed to fund its Class Percentage (in the case of any Revolving Credit Loan) or its
ratable share in the case of any Term Loan (calculated on the basis of the amount of its Commitment
of the applicable Class as a percentage of the total Commitments of the applicable Class) requested
by the Borrower or to fund its Class Percentage of any unreimbursed

75

 

payment made by the Fronting Bank, which such Lender is obligated to fund under the terms of
this Agreement and which failure has not been cured, (ii) requested compensation from the Borrower
under Section 2.18 with respect to increased costs or capital or under Section 2.21 to recover
Taxes, Other Taxes or other additional costs incurred by such Lender which, in any case, are not
being incurred generally by the other Lenders, (iii) delivered a notice pursuant to Section 2.19
claiming that such Lender is unable to extend Eurodollar Loans to the Borrower for reasons not
generally applicable to the other Lenders or (iv) become a Non-Consenting Lender, then, in any
case, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent may make written demand on such Affected Lender
(with a copy to the Administrative Agent in the case of a demand by the Borrower and a copy to the
Borrower in the case of a demand by the Administrative Agent) for the Affected Lender to assign,
and such Affected Lender shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assign (at par, unless
otherwise consented to by the applicable Affected Lender) pursuant to one or more duly executed
Assignments and Acceptances five (5) Business Days after the date of such demand, to one or more
Eligible Assignees which the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall have
engaged for such purpose (“Replacement Lender”), all of such Affected Lender’s rights and
obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, its
Commitment of each Class, all Loans owing to it, all of its participation interests (if any) in
Existing Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans, and its obligation to participate in additional
Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans hereunder) in accordance with Section 9.03(b). The
Administrative Agent agrees, upon the occurrence of such events with respect to an Affected Lender
and upon the written request of the Borrower, to use its reasonable efforts to obtain the relevant
Commitments from one or more Eligible Assignees to act as a Replacement Lender. The Administrative
Agent is authorized to execute one or more of such Assignments and Acceptances as attorney-in-fact
for any Affected Lender failing to execute and deliver the same within five (5) Business Days after
the date of such demand. Further, with respect to such assignment the Affected Lender shall have
concurrently received, in cash, all amounts due and owing to the Affected Lender hereunder or under
any other Loan Document, including, without limitation, the aggregate outstanding principal amount
of the Loans owed to such Lender, together with accrued interest thereon through the date of such
assignment, amounts payable under Section 2.18 with respect to such Affected Lender and
compensation payable under Section 2.23 in the event of any replacement of any Affected Lender
under clause (ii) or clause (iii) of this Section 2.27; provided that upon such Affected Lender’s
replacement, such Affected Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be
entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.18, 9.05 and 9.06, as well as to any fees accrued for its
account hereunder and not yet paid, and shall continue to be obligated under Section 8.06 with
respect to losses, obligations, liabilities, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, costs,
expenses or disbursements for matters which occurred prior to the date the Affected Lender is
replaced. In the event that (i) the Borrower or the Administrative Agent has requested the Lenders
to consent to a departure or waiver of any provisions of the Loan Documents or to agree to any
amendment thereto, (ii) the consent, waiver or amendment in question requires the agreement of all
affected Lenders in accordance with the terms of Section 9.10 or all the Lenders with respect to a
certain class of the Loans and (iii) the Required Lenders (and/or the Required Revolving Credit
Lenders or the Required Term Lenders, as the case may be) have agreed to such consent, waiver or
amendment, then any Lender who does not agree to such consent, waiver or amendment shall be deemed
a “Non-Consenting Lender.”

76

 

     Section 2.28. Expansion Option. The Borrower may from time to time elect to increase the
Total Revolving Credit Commitment in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 so long as, after giving effect
thereto, the aggregate increase in the Total Revolving Credit Commitment pursuant to this Section
2.28 does not exceed the sum of (a) $100,000,000 and (b) the aggregate amount of Borrowing Base
Addition Amounts. The Borrower may arrange for any such increase to be provided by one or more
Lenders (each Lender so agreeing to a Revolving Credit Commitment or an increase in its Revolving
Credit Commitment, an “Increasing Lender”), or by one or more new banks, financial institutions or
other entities (each such new bank, financial institution or other entity, an “Augmenting Lender”),
to increase their existing Revolving Credit Commitments, or extend Revolving Credit Commitments, as
the case may be; provided that (i) each Augmenting Lender shall be subject to the approval of the
Borrower and the approval of the Administrative Agent, not to be unreasonably withheld in either
case, and (ii) the Borrower, such Increasing Lender or Augmenting Lender (as the case may be) and
the Administrative Agent execute an agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit K hereto.
Increases and new Commitments created pursuant to this Section 2.28 shall become effective on the
date agreed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the relevant Increasing Lenders or
Augmenting Lenders (it being understood that no consent of any other Lender shall be required) and
the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender thereof. On the effective date of any increase
in the Total Revolving Credit Commitment, (i) each relevant Increasing Lender and Augmenting Lender
shall make available to the Administrative Agent such amounts in immediately available funds as the
Administrative Agent shall determine, for the benefit of the other Revolving Credit Lenders, as
being required in order to cause, after giving effect to such increase and the use of such amounts
to make payments to such other Revolving Credit Lenders, each Revolving Credit Lender’s portion of
the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans of all the Revolving Credit Lenders to equal its Class
Percentage, and (ii) the Borrower shall be deemed to have repaid and reborrowed all outstanding
Revolving Loans as of the date of any increase in the Commitments (with such reborrowing to consist
of the Types of Revolving Credit Loans, with related Interest Periods if applicable, specified in a
notice delivered by the Borrower in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.03). The deemed
payments made pursuant to clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence shall be accompanied by
the payment of the amounts described in clause (i) of the first sentence of Section 2.17(b), if the
deemed payment occurs other than on the last day of the related Interest Periods.

ARTICLE III

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

     To induce the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to enter into this Agreement, on the
Closing Date the Borrower hereby represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and each
Lender that:

     Section 3.01. Financial Condition. (a) The unaudited projected pro forma consolidated
balance sheet of the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at December 31, 2007 (including
the notes thereto) (the “Pro Forma Balance Sheet”), copies of which have heretofore been furnished
to each Lender, has been prepared giving effect (as if such events had occurred on such date) to
(i) the consummation of the Reorganization Plan, (ii) the Term Loans and the Revolving Loans to be
made hereunder on the Closing Date and the issuance of the Letters of Credit to be issued hereunder
on the Closing Date, (iii) the Tranche A Term Loans deemed to

77

 

have been made on the Closing Date, (iv) the Senior Subordinated Notes to be issued on the
Closing Date, and (v) the payment of fees and expenses in connection with the foregoing. The Pro
Forma Balance Sheet has been prepared based on the information available to the Borrower as of the
date of delivery thereof, and presents fairly in all material respects on a pro forma basis the
estimated financial position of Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at December 31, 2007,
assuming that the events specified in the preceding sentence had actually occurred at such date.

     (b) The audited consolidated balance sheets of the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries
as at December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, and the related consolidated statements of income
and of cash flows for the fiscal years ended on such dates, reported on by and accompanied by an
unqualified report from Ernst & Young LLP, present fairly the consolidated financial condition of
the Group Members as at such date, and the consolidated results of its operations and its
consolidated cash flows for the respective fiscal years then ended. The unaudited consolidated
balance sheet of the Group Members as at September 30, 2007, and the related unaudited consolidated
statements of income and cash flows for the nine-month period ended on such date, present fairly
the consolidated financial condition of the Group Members as at such date, and the consolidated
results of its operations and its consolidated cash flows for the nine-month period then ended
(subject to normal year-end audit adjustments). 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). No Group Member has any material Guarantee Obligations,
contingent liabilities and liabilities for taxes, or any long-term leases or unusual forward or
long-term commitments, including any interest rate or foreign currency swap or exchange transaction
or other obligation in respect of derivatives, that are not (x) reflected in the most recent
financial statements referred to in this paragraph, (y) Swap Agreements permitted by Section 6.12
or (z) the Borrower’s contingent obligation to make a loan to the “Trust” (as defined in the
Reorganization Plan) in an aggregate principal amount of $140,000,000, in accordance with Section
8.22 of the Reorganization Plan.

     Section 3.02. No Change. As of the Closing Date, since December 31, 2006 there has been no
material adverse change in the business, financial condition, operations, or property of the
Borrower or the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

     Section 3.03. Existence; Compliance With Law. Each Loan Party (a) is duly organized, validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, (b) has the
power and authority, and the legal right, to own and operate its property, to lease the property it
operates as lessee and to conduct the business in which it is currently engaged, (c) is duly
qualified as a foreign corporation and in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction where
its ownership, lease or operation of property or the conduct of its business requires such
qualification except to the extent the failure to so qualify or be in good standing could not, in
the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and (d) is in compliance
with all Requirements of Law except to the extent that the failure to comply therewith could not,
in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

     Section 3.04. Power; Authorization; Enforceable Obligations. Each Loan Party has the power
and authority, and the legal right, to make, deliver and perform the Loan Documents to

78

 

which it is a party. Each Loan Party has taken all necessary organizational action to
authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and,
in the case of the Borrower, to authorize the extensions of credit on the terms and conditions of
this Agreement. No consent or authorization of, filing with, notice to or other act by or in
respect of, any Governmental Authority or any other Person is required in connection with the
Reorganization Plan and the extensions of credit hereunder or with the execution, delivery,
performance, validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, except (i)
consents, authorizations, filings and notices described in Schedule 3.04, which consents,
authorizations, filings and notices have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect and
(ii) the filings referred to in Section 3.14. Each Loan Document has been duly executed and
delivered on behalf of each Loan Party party thereto. This Agreement constitutes, and each other
Loan Document upon execution and delivery will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of
each Loan Party party thereto, enforceable against each such Loan Party in accordance with its
terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally
and by general equitable principles (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or at
law).

     Section 3.05. No Legal Bar. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents, and the Loans made hereunder and the Letters of Credit issued hereunder will
not violate any Requirement of Law or any Contractual Obligation of any Loan Party and will not
result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien on any of their respective properties
or revenues pursuant to any Requirement of Law or any such Contractual Obligation (other than the
Liens created by the Security Documents).

     Section 3.06. Litigation. Except as disclosed on Schedule 3.06, no litigation, investigation
or proceeding of or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority is pending or, to the knowledge
of the Borrower, threatened against any Group Member or against any of their respective properties
or revenues (a) that calls into question the validity or enforceability of the Loan Documents or
that seeks to enjoin any of the transactions contemplated thereby, or (b) that could reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

     Section 3.07. No Default. No Group Member is in default under any of its Contractual
Obligations in any respect that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No
Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

     Section 3.08. Ownership of Property; Liens. Each Loan Party has title in fee simple to, or a
valid leasehold interest in, all its real property subject to the Mortgages, and none of its
property is subject to any Lien except as permitted by Section 6.03.

     Section 3.09. Intellectual Property. Each Loan Party owns, or is licensed to use, all
Intellectual Property necessary for the conduct of its business as currently conducted. No
material claim has been asserted and is pending by any Person challenging or questioning the use of
any Intellectual Property or the validity or effectiveness of any Intellectual Property, nor does
the Borrower know of any valid basis for any such claim. To the knowledge of the Borrower, the use
of Intellectual Property by each Loan Party does not infringe on the rights of any Person in any
material respect.

79

 

     Section 3.10. Taxes. Each Group Member has filed or caused to be filed all Federal, material
state and other material tax returns that are required to be filed and has paid all taxes shown to
be due and payable on said returns or on any material assessments made against it or any of its
property and all other material taxes, fees or other charges imposed on it or any of its property
by any Governmental Authority (other than any the amount or validity of which are currently being
contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which reserves in conformity
with GAAP have been provided on the books of the relevant Group Member); no material tax Lien has
been filed with respect to any Group Member, and, to the knowledge of the Borrower, no material
claim is being asserted against any Group Member, with respect to any such tax, fee or other
charge.

     Section 3.11. Investment Company Act; Other Regulations. No Loan Party is an “investment
company”, or a company “controlled” by an “investment company”, within the meaning of the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. No Loan Party is subject to regulation under any
Requirement of Law (other than Regulation X of the Board) that limits its ability to incur
Indebtedness.

     Section 3.12. Subsidiaries. Schedule 3.12 sets forth as of the Closing Date the name and
jurisdiction of incorporation of each Subsidiary and, as to each such Subsidiary, the percentage of
each class of Capital Stock owned by any Loan Party. There are no outstanding subscriptions,
options, warrants, calls, rights or other agreements or commitments (other than stock options
granted to employees or directors and directors’ qualifying shares) of any nature relating to any
Capital Stock of the Borrower or any other Loan Party, except as created by the Loan Documents or
pursuant to the Reorganization Plan.

     Section 3.13. Accuracy of Information, etc. No statement or information contained in this
Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other document, certificate or statement furnished by or
on behalf of any Loan Party to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, or any of them, for use in
connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (when
taken as a whole together with the Borrower’s public filings with the SEC), contained as of the
date such statement, information, document or certificate was so furnished, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, any untrue statement of material fact or omitted to state

ARTICLE VIII

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

     Section 8.01. Administration by Administrative Agent. The general administration of the Loan
Documents shall be performed by the Administrative Agent. Each Lender hereby irrevocably
authorizes the Administrative Agent, at its discretion, to take or refrain from taking such actions
as agent on its behalf and to exercise or refrain from exercising such powers under
the Loan Documents as are delegated by the terms hereof or thereof, as appropriate, together
with all powers reasonably incidental thereto (including the release of Collateral in connection
with any transaction that is expressly permitted by the Loan Documents). The Administrative Agent

117

 

shall have no duties or responsibilities except as set forth in this Agreement and the remaining
Loan Documents.

     Section 8.02. Advances and Payments. (a) On the date of each Loan of any Class, the
Administrative Agent shall be authorized (but not obligated) to advance, for the account of each of
the Lenders of such Class, the amount of the Loan to be made by such Lender in accordance with its
Commitment hereunder. Should the Administrative Agent do so, each of the Lenders agrees forthwith
to reimburse the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds for the amount so advanced on
its behalf by the Administrative Agent, together with interest at the Federal Funds Rate if not so
reimbursed on the date due from and including such date but not including the date of
reimbursement.

     (b) Any amounts received by the Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement (other
than amounts to which the Administrative Agent is entitled pursuant to Sections 2.22, 8.06, 9.05
and 9.06), the application of which is not otherwise provided for in this Agreement, shall be
applied, first, in accordance with each Lender’s applicable Class Percentage to pay ratably accrued
but unpaid Ticking Fees, Commitment Fees and Letter of Credit Fees, and second, ratably, (x) in
accordance with each Revolving Credit Lender’s Class Percentage to pay accrued but unpaid interest
and the principal balance outstanding of all Revolving Credit Loans and all unreimbursed Letter of
Credit drawings, (y) in accordance with each Tranche B Lender’s Class Percentage to pay accrued but
unpaid interest and the principal balance outstanding of all Tranche B Term Loans and (z) in
accordance with each Tranche C Lender’s Class Percentage to pay accrued but unpaid interest and the
principal balance outstanding of all Tranche C Term Loans. All amounts to be paid to a Lender by
the Administrative Agent shall be credited to that Lender, after collection by the Administrative
Agent, in immediately available funds either by wire transfer or deposit in that Lender’s
correspondent account with the Administrative Agent, as such Lender and the Administrative Agent
shall from time to time agree.

     Section 8.03. Sharing of Setoffs. Each Lender agrees that if it shall, through the exercise
of a right of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim against the Borrower, including, but not
limited to, a secured claim or other security or interest arising from, or in lieu of, such secured
claim and received by such Lender under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law
or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of its Loans of any Class as a result of which the unpaid
portion of its Loans of such Class is proportionately less than the unpaid portion of the Loans of
such Class of any other Lender, (a) such Lender shall promptly purchase at par (and shall be deemed
to have thereupon purchased) from such other Lender a participation in the Loans of such Class of
such other Lender, so that the aggregate unpaid principal amount of each Lender’s Loans of such
Class and such Lender’s participation in Loans of such Class of the other Lenders shall be in the
same proportion to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Loans of such Class then
outstanding as the principal amount of its Loans of such Class prior to the obtaining of such
payment was to the principal amount of all Loans of such Class outstanding prior to the obtaining
of such payment and (b) such other adjustments shall be made from time to time as shall be
equitable to ensure that the Lenders share such payment pro-rata, provided that if any such
non-pro-rata payment is thereafter recovered or otherwise set aside, such purchase of
participations
shall be rescinded (without interest). The Borrower expressly consents to the foregoing
arrangements and agrees that any Lender holding (or deemed to be holding) a participation in a Loan
may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, setoff (in each case, subject to the same

118

 

notice requirements as pertain to clause (iv) of the remedial provisions of Section 7.01) or counterclaim
with respect to any and all moneys owing by the Borrower to such Lender as fully as if such Lender
was the original obligee thereon, in the amount of such participation.

     Section 8.04. Agreement of Required Lenders. Upon any occasion requiring or permitting an
approval, consent, waiver, election or other action on the part of the Required Lenders, action
shall be taken by the Administrative Agent for and on behalf or for the benefit of all Lenders upon
the direction of the Required Lenders, and any such action shall be binding on all Lenders. No
amendment, modification, consent, or waiver shall be effective except in accordance with the
provisions of Section 9.10.

     Section 8.05. Liability of Administrative Agent. (a) The Administrative Agent, when acting
on behalf of the Lenders, may execute any of its respective duties under this Agreement by or
through any of its respective officers, agents, and employees, and neither the Administrative Agent
nor its directors, officers, agents, employees or Affiliates shall be liable to the Lenders or any
of them for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith, or be responsible to the Lenders
or to any of them for the consequences of any oversight or error of judgment, or for any loss,
unless the same shall happen through its gross negligence or willful misconduct. The
Administrative Agent and its respective directors, officers, agents, employees and Affiliates shall
in no event be liable to the Lenders or to any of them for any action taken or omitted to be taken
by them pursuant to instructions received by them from the Required Lenders or in reliance upon the
advice of counsel selected by the Administrative Agent. Without limiting the foregoing, neither
the Administrative Agent, nor any of its respective directors, officers, employees, agents or
Affiliates shall be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, validity, genuineness,
effectiveness, sufficiency, or enforceability of, or for any statement, warranty, or representation
in, this Agreement, any Loan Document or any related agreement, document or order, or shall be
required to ascertain or to make any inquiry concerning the performance or observance by the
Borrower of any of the terms, conditions, covenants, or agreements of this Agreement or any of the
Loan Documents.

     (b) Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its respective directors, officers, employees,
agents or Affiliates shall have any responsibility to the Borrower on account of the failure or
delay in performance or breach by any Lender or by the Borrower of any of their respective
obligations under this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents or in connection herewith or
therewith.

     (c) The Administrative Agent, in its capacity as Administrative Agent hereunder, shall be
entitled to rely on any communication, instrument, or document reasonably believed by it to be
genuine or correct and to have been signed or sent by a person or persons believed by it to be the
proper person or persons, and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely on advice of legal
counsel, independent public accountants, and other professional advisers and experts selected by
it.

     Section 8.06. Reimbursement and Indemnification. Each Lender agrees (i) to reimburse the
Administrative Agent for such Lender’s Class Percentage of (x) any expenses and fees incurred for
the benefit of the Lenders under this Agreement and any of the Loan Documents, including, without
limitation, counsel fees and compensation of agents and employees for

119

 

services rendered on behalf of the Lenders, and any other expense incurred in connection with the operations or enforcement
thereof not reimbursed by the Borrower and (y) any expenses of the Administrative Agent incurred
for the benefit of the Lenders that the Borrower has agreed to reimburse pursuant to Section 9.05
and has failed to so reimburse and (ii) to indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and
any of its directors, officers, employees, agents or Affiliates, on demand, in the amount of its
proportionate share, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses, or disbursements of any kind or nature
whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against it or any of them in any way
relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents or any action taken or
omitted by it or any of them under this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents to the extent not
reimbursed by the Borrower (except such as shall result from their respective gross negligence or
willful misconduct).

     Section 8.07. Rights of Administrative Agent. It is understood and agreed that CUSA shall
have the same rights and powers hereunder (including the right to give such instructions) as the
other Lenders and may exercise such rights and powers, as well as its rights and powers under other
agreements and instruments to which it is or may be party, and engage in other transactions with
the Borrower, as though it were not the Administrative Agent of the Lenders under this Agreement.

     Section 8.08. Independent Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has decided to enter into
this Agreement and to make the Loans hereunder based on its own analysis of the transactions
contemplated hereby and of the creditworthiness of the Borrower and agrees that the Administrative
Agent shall bear no responsibility therefor.

     Section 8.09. Notice of Transfer. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat a Lender party
to this Agreement as the owner of such Lender’s portion of the Loans for all purposes, unless and
until a written notice of the assignment or transfer thereof executed by such Lender shall have
been received by the Administrative Agent.

     Section 8.10. Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign at any time
by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the
Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be
reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so
appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment, within thirty (30) days
after the retiring Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, the retiring
Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which
shall be a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States or of any State thereof
and having a combined capital and surplus of a least $100,000,000, and which shall be reasonably
satisfactory to the Borrower. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent
hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon
succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring
Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative
Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any
retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of
this Article VIII shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it
while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement. Upon the effectiveness of the retirement
of

120

 

any Administrative Agent, the retiring Administrative Agent may, at its option, (i) transfer
the management of the Term Letter of Credit Account to the successor Administrative Agent or (ii)
close the Term Letter of Credit Account upon the establishment of a new Term Letter of Credit
Account with the successor Administrative Agent (and the successor Administrative Agent shall
establish such new account) and transfer all amounts on deposit in the Term Letter of Credit
Account to such new account.

Katz, Telephone: (248) 354-9924 and Telecopy: (248) 354-2659, and to any Lender at its address set
forth on Annex A-1, A-2 or A-3, as applicable, and to the Administrative Agent or the Swing Line
Lender at its address set forth on the signature pages hereof, or such other address as such party
may from time to time designate by giving written notice to the other parties hereunder. 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 fifth Business Day after the date when
sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, if by mail; or
when delivered to the telegraph company, charges prepaid, if by telegram; or when receipt is
acknowledged, if by any telegraphic communications or facsimile equipment of the sender; in each
case addressed to such party as provided in this Section 9.01 or in accordance with the latest
unrevoked written direction from such party; provided, however, that in the case of notices to the
Administrative Agent and the Swing Line Lender, notices pursuant to the preceding sentence with
respect to change of address and pursuant to Article II shall be effective only when received by
the Administrative Agent or the Swing Line Lender, as applicable.

     Section 9.02. Survival of Agreement, Representations and Warranties, etc. All warranties,
representations and covenants made by the Borrower herein or in any certificate or other instrument
delivered by it or on its behalf in connection with this Agreement shall be considered to have been
relied upon by the Lenders and shall survive the making of the Loans herein contemplated regardless
of any investigation made by any Lender or on its behalf and shall continue in full force and
effect so long as any amount due or to become due hereunder is outstanding and unpaid and so long
as the Commitments have not been terminated. All statements in any such certificate or other
instrument shall constitute representations and warranties by the Borrower hereunder with respect
to the Borrower.

     Section 9.03. Successors and Assigns. (a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to
the benefit of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and their respective
successors and assigns. The Borrower may neither assign nor transfer any of its rights or
obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of all of the Lenders. Each Lender may
sell participations to any Person in all or part of any Loan, or all or part of its Commitment, in
which event, without limiting the foregoing, the provisions of Section 2.18 shall inure to the

121

 

benefit of each purchaser of a participation (provided that such participant shall look solely
to the seller of such participation for such benefits and the Borrower’s liability, if any, under
Sections 2.18 and 2.21 shall not be increased as a result of the sale of any such participation)
and the pro rata treatment of payments, as described in Section 2.20, shall be determined as if
such Lender had not sold such participation. In the event any Lender shall sell any participation,
such Lender shall retain the sole right and responsibility to enforce the obligations of the
Borrower relating to the Loans, including, without limitation, the right to approve any amendment,
modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement (provided that such Lender may grant its
participant the right to consent to such Lender’s execution of amendments, modifications or waivers
which (i) reduce any Fees payable hereunder to the Lenders, (ii) reduce the amount of any scheduled
principal payment on any Loan or reduce the principal amount of any Loan or the rate of interest
payable hereunder or (iii) extend the maturity of the Borrower’s obligations hereunder). The sale
of any such participation shall not alter the rights and obligations of the Lender selling such
participation hereunder with respect to the Borrower.

     (b) Each Lender may assign to one or more Lenders or Eligible Assignees all or a portion of
its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement, provided, however, that (i) with
respect to any assignment of a Term Loan or a Term Loan Commitment to any Person other than a
Pre-Approved Assignee, the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default or event which
upon notice or lapse of time or both would constitute an Event of Default shall have occurred and
be continuing, the Borrower, must give their respective prior written consent to such assignment,
which consent will not be unreasonably withheld (with a failure by the Borrower to respond within
15 days to a request for such consent being deemed consent by it), (ii) with respect to any
assignment of a Revolving Credit Commitment and corresponding Revolving Credit Loans, R/C Letter of
Credit Outstandings and participations in Swing Line Loans, other than in the case of an assignment
to a Pre-Approved Assignee, the Administrative Agent, the Fronting Bank and, so long as no Event of
Default or event which upon notice or lapse of time or both would constitute an Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower, must give their respective prior written
consent to such assignment, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, (iii) other than in
the case of an assignment to a Pre-Approved Assignee, immediately after giving effect to any such
assignment, (x) the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment or the aggregate principal
amount of the Term Loans of either Class of the assigning Lender (determined as of the date the
Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent)
shall, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, be $0 or
at least $1,000,000 and (y) the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment or the
aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans of either Class of the assignee Lender (determined as
of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the
Administrative Agent) shall, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent, be at least $1,000,000, (iv) any assignment by any Revolving Credit Lender of
all or a portion of its Revolving Credit Commitment shall include an assignment of all or the same
portion of the Revolving Loans, the R/C Letter of Credit Outstandings and the participations in
Swing Line Loans then held by such Revolving Credit Lender (and vice versa), and (v) the parties to
each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and
recording in the Register (as defined below), an Assignment and Acceptance with blanks
appropriately completed, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (for which the
Borrower shall have no liability), provided that, in the case of multiple

122

 

assignments by any Lender that occur substantially contemporaneously, only one such processing
and recordation fee shall be payable to the Administrative Agent. Upon such execution, delivery,
acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and
Acceptance, which effective date shall be within ten (10) Business Days after the execution thereof
(unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Administrative Agent), (A) the assignee thereunder
shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, have the
rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and (B) the Lender thereunder shall, to the extent
provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement
(and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an
assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a
party hereto).

     (c) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the Lender assignor thereunder
and the assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as
follows: (i) other than the representation and warranty that it is the legal and beneficial owner
of the interest being assigned thereby free and clear of any adverse claim, such Lender assignor
makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements,
warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan
Documents or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value
of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents; (ii) such Lender assignor makes no
representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of
the Borrower or the performance or observance by the Borrower of any of their obligations under
this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any other instrument or document furnished
pursuant hereto; (iii) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents, together with copies of the financial statements referred to in Section 3.01
and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit
analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee will,
independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, such Lender assignor or any other
Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time,
continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (v)
such assignee appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its
behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to the Administrative
Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vi)
such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all obligations that by
the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender.

     (d) The Administrative Agent shall maintain at its office a copy of each Assignment and
Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the
Lenders, the Commitments of the Lenders, the principal amount of the Loans owing to each Lender and
the Letter of Credit Outstandings and participations in Swing Line Loans held by each Lender, in
each case from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in
the absence of manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall
treat each Person the name of which is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all
purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any
Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

123

 

     (e) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and the
assignee thereunder together with the fee payable in respect thereto, the Administrative Agent
shall, if such Assignment and Acceptance has been completed with blanks appropriately filled and
consented to by the Administrative Agent and the Fronting Bank (to the extent such consent is
required hereunder), (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) record the information
contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt written notice thereof to the Borrower
(together with a copy thereof). No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement
unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

     (f) Any Lender may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment
or participation pursuant to this Section 9.03, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed
assignee or participant, any information relating to the Borrower furnished to such Lender by or on
behalf of the Borrower; provided that prior to any such disclosure, each such assignee or
participant or proposed assignee or participant shall agree in writing to be bound by
confidentiality provisions not less restrictive than those contained in Section 9.04.

     (g) The Borrower hereby agrees to actively assist and cooperate with the Administrative Agent
in the Administrative Agent’s efforts to sell participations herein (as described in Section
9.03(a)) and assign to one or more Lenders or Eligible Assignees a portion of its interests, rights
and obligations under this Agreement (as set forth in Section 9.03(b)).

     (h) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of
its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or
assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any
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 9.04. Confidentiality. Each Lender agrees to keep any non-public information
delivered or made available by the Borrower to it confidential from anyone other than persons
employed or retained by such Lender who are or are expected to become engaged in evaluating,
approving, structuring or administering the Loans; provided that nothing herein shall prevent any
Lender from disclosing such information (i) to any of its officers, directors, partners, members or
Affiliates or to any other Lender, provided such officer, director, partner, member or Affiliate
agrees to keep such information confidential in a manner not less restrictive than is required by
the Lenders hereunder, (ii) upon the order of any court or administrative agency, (iii) upon the
request or demand of any regulatory agency or authority or by the National Association of Insurance
Commissioners, (iv) which has been publicly disclosed other than as a result of a disclosure by the
Administrative Agent or any Lender which is not permitted by this Agreement, (v) in connection with
any litigation to which the Administrative Agent, any Lender, or their respective Affiliates may be
a party to the extent reasonably required, (vi) to the extent reasonably required in connection
with the exercise of any remedy hereunder, (vii) to such Lender’s legal counsel and independent
auditors, (viii) to any actual or proposed participant or assignee of all or part of its rights
hereunder subject to the proviso in Section 9.03(f) and (ix) to any direct or indirect contractual
counterparties (or the professional advisors thereto) to any swap or derivative transaction
relating to the Borrower and its obligations (provided such party agrees

124

 

to be bound by confidentiality provisions no less restrictive than those contained in Section
9.04). Each Lender shall notify the Borrower of any required disclosure under clause (ii) of this
Section; provided, however, that the failure of any such Lender to provide such notification shall
not limit, alter or otherwise affect any of the Borrower’s obligations under this Agreement.

     Section 9.05. Expenses. The Borrower agrees to pay all reasonable expenses incurred by the
Administrative Agent and the Arrangers (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and
disbursements of Davis Polk & Wardwell, counsel for the Arrangers and the Administrative Agent, any
other counsel that the Administrative Agent shall retain and any internal or third-party
appraisers, consultants and auditors advising the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers and their
counsel) in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery and administration of this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the making of the Loans and the issuance of the Letters of
Credit, the perfection of the Liens contemplated hereby, the syndication of the transactions
contemplated hereby, the costs, fees and expenses of the Administrative Agent and CGMI in
connection with monthly and other periodic field audits, monitoring of assets (including reasonable
and customary internal collateral monitoring fees) in accordance with Section 5.06 and publicity
expenses, and, following the occurrence of an Event of Default, all expenses incurred by the
Lenders and the Administrative Agent in the enforcement or protection of the rights of any one or
more of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents, including but not limited to the reasonable fees and disbursements of any counsel for
the Lenders or the Administrative Agent. Such payments by the Borrower shall be made upon delivery
of a statement setting forth such costs and expenses. The obligations of the Borrower under this
Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and/or the payment of the Loans.

     Section 9.06. Indemnity. The Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the
Administrative Agent, the Arrangers and the Lenders and their directors, officers, partners,
members, employees, trustees, advisors, agents and Affiliates (each an “Indemnified Party”) from
and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments,
suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the
execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement, the other Loan
Documents and any such other documents, including any of the foregoing relating to the use of
proceeds of the Loans or the violation of, noncompliance with or liability under, any Environmental
Law applicable to the operations of any Group Member or any property at any time owned, leased, or
in any way used by any Group Member or any entity for which any of them is alleged to be
responsible, and the reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel in connection with claims,
actions or proceedings by any Indemnified Party against any Loan Party under any Loan Document (all
the foregoing, collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), provided that the Borrower shall have
no obligation hereunder to any Indemnified Party with respect to Indemnified Liabilities to the
extent such Indemnified Liabilities to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of such Indemnified Party. Without limiting the foregoing, and to the extent permitted
by applicable law, the Borrower agrees not to assert and to cause its Subsidiaries not to assert,
and hereby waives and agrees to cause its Subsidiaries to waive, all rights for contribution or any
other rights of recovery with respect to all claims, demands, penalties, fines, liabilities,
settlements, damages, costs and expenses of whatever kind or nature, under or related to
Environmental Laws, that any of them might have by statute or otherwise against any Indemnified
Party. All amounts due under this Section 9.06 shall be

125

 

payable not later than ten (10) days after written demand therefor. Statements payable by the
Borrower pursuant to this Section 9.06 shall be submitted to the Borrower at the address of the
Borrower set forth in Section 9.01, or to such other Person or address as may be hereafter
designated by the Borrower in a written notice to the Administrative Agent. The agreements in this
Section 9.06 shall survive repayment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

     Section 9.07. Choice of Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS SHALL IN ALL
RESPECTS BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK
APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED WHOLLY WITHIN SUCH STATE.

     Section 9.08. No Waiver. No failure on the part of the Administrative Agent or any of the
Lenders to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder or any of the
other Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of
any such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of
any other right, power or remedy. All remedies hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of
any other remedies provided by law.

     Section 9.09. Extension of Maturity. Should any payment of principal of or interest or any
other amount due hereunder become due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity
thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of principal,
interest shall be payable thereon at the rate herein specified during such extension.

     Section 9.10. Amendments, etc. No modification, amendment or waiver of any provision of any
Loan Document, and no consent to any departure by the Borrower or Guarantors therefrom, shall in
any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Required Lenders or,
in the case of any Loan Document other than this Agreement, signed by the Administrative Agent (or
the Collateral Trustee at the instruction or with the consent of the Administrative Agent), with
the written consent, or at the written direction, of the Required Lenders, and then such waiver or
consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given;
provided, however, that in addition to the consent of the Required Lenders, no such modification or
amendment shall without the written consent (or the written direction) of (A) the Lender affected
thereby (i) increase the Commitment of a Lender (it being understood that a waiver of an Event of
Default shall not constitute an increase in the Commitment of a Lender), (ii) reduce the principal
amount of any Loan (or any unreimbursed Letter of Credit) or the rate of interest payable thereon,
or extend any scheduled date for the payment of principal pursuant to Section 2.09(a), or extend
any date for the payment of interest or Fees hereunder, or reduce any Fees payable hereunder or
extend the Tranche B Maturity Date, the Tranche C Maturity Date or the Revolving Credit Maturity
Date; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, only the consent of the Required
Lenders shall be necessary in order to waive the application of the default rate of interest
imposed pursuant to Section 2.11 hereof notwithstanding that any such amendment may have the effect
of reducing the amount of interest or fees payable hereunder or (iii) change the order of
application of proceeds set forth in Section 2.20(b) or Section 2.20(c) or, solely to the extent
used to determine such order of application of proceeds, any defined terms used in such Sections,
(B) all of the Lenders (i) amend or modify any provision of the Loan Documents which provides for
the unanimous consent or approval of all the Lenders, (ii) amend this Section 9.10 (other than
clauses (C), (D), (E), (F) or

126

 

(G)) or the definition of Required Lenders, or (iii) release all or substantially all of the
Collateral from the Liens created under the Security Documents or all or substantially all of the
Guarantors in their respective capacities as guarantors of the Obligations under the Guarantee
Agreements, (C) the Required Revolving Credit Lenders (i) waive the requirement set forth in
Section 4.02(e) with respect to any Revolving Credit Borrowing or the issuance, extension or
renewal of any R/C Letter of Credit, (ii) release any Borrowing Base Collateral (other than all or
substantially all of the Collateral) from the Liens created under the Security Documents or (iii)
amend Section 2.15 (or any definition to the extent used in such Section), (D) the Super-majority
Revolving Credit Lenders, (i) alter the eligibility standards used in determining the Borrowing
Base in a manner which would increase the amount of the Borrowing Base or (ii) increase the advance
rates in the calculation of the Borrowing Base, (E) all of the Revolving Credit Lenders, amend or
modify clauses (C), (D) or (E) of this Section 9.10 or the definitions of Required Revolving Credit
Lenders or Super-majority Revolving Credit Lenders or any other provision of the Loan Documents
which provides for the unanimous consent or approval of the Revolving Credit Lenders, (F) the
Required Term Lenders, (i) amend Section 2.04 (it being understood that any such modification or
amendment of Section 2.04 that is of the type described in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) of clause (A)
above shall be subject to the provisions of such clause) to the extent it affects the Term Loan
Lenders, (ii) release any PP&E Collateral (other than all or substantially all of the PP&E
Collateral) from the Liens created under the Security Documents or (iii) amend Section 2.16 (or any
definition to the extent used in such Section), and (G) all of the Term Loan Lenders, amend or
modify clauses (F) or (G) of this Section 9.10 or the definition of Required Term Lenders or any
other provision of the Loan Documents which provides for the unanimous consent or approval of the
Term Loan Lenders or (ii) release all or substantially all of the PP&E Collateral from the Liens
created under the Security Documents (and, if the PP&E Collateral shall constitute all or
substantially all of the Collateral, the provisions of clause (B)(iii) shall also apply). No such
modification, amendment or waiver or consent may adversely affect the rights and obligations of
(i) the Administrative Agent, (ii) the Fronting Bank or (iii) the Swing Line Lender, in each case
without its prior written consent. The consent of no Lender shall be required (i) with respect to
any action described in Section 6.3 of the Collateral Trust Agreement (subject to the proviso
contained therein), (ii) to add the obligations of the Loan Parties with respect to Indebtedness
permitted under Section 6.02(q) or Section 6.02(v) as additional “Third Priority Obligations” under
the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement or (iii) to add the obligations of the Loan
Parties with respect to Indebtedness permitted under Section 6.02(y) that is secured by (x) Liens
granted pursuant to Section 6.03(z)(i) as “Additional First Priority Obligations” or (y) Liens
granted pursuant to Section 6.03(z)(ii) as “Additional Junior Priority Obligations”, in each case
under the Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement (and each Lender hereby authorizes the
Administrative Agent to enter into, or to instruct the Collateral Trustee to enter into, any
amendments or modifications of the Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreement, or to
 enter
into additional intercreditor agreements on terms substantially identical to those contained in the
Intercreditor Agreement, to the extent necessary or desirable to give effect to any such
addition). Each assignee shall be bound by any modification, amendment, waiver, or consent
authorized as provided herein, and any consent by a Lender shall bind any Person subsequently
acquiring an interest in the Loans held by such Lender. No amendment to this Agreement shall be
effective against the Borrower unless in writing and signed by the Borrower.

     In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended with the written
consent of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders providing the

127

 

relevant Replacement Revolving Credit Facility (as defined below) to permit the refinancing of
all Revolving Credit Commitments with a replacement facility under this Agreement, or to permit the
extension of the Revolving Credit Maturity Date (each of the foregoing, a “Replacement Revolving
Credit Facility”); provided that (a) the aggregate amount of commitments under such Replacement
Revolving Credit Commitments shall not exceed the aggregate amount of the replaced Revolving Credit
Commitments, (b) the maturity date of such Replacement Revolving Credit Facility shall not be
earlier than the Revolving Credit Maturity Date at the time of such replacement and (c) the terms
of such Replacement Revolving Credit Facility shall not adversely affect the Term Loans (it being
agreed that the following terms of a Replacement Revolving Credit Facility shall not be deemed to
adversely affect the Term Loans: (i) a maturity date that complies with clause (b) and (ii) pricing
that is in excess of the pricing in effect with respect to the Revolving Credit Commitments
immediately prior to the effectiveness of such Replacement Revolving Credit Facility). The
Administrative Agent shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to a Replacement Revolving Credit
Facility. For the avoidance of doubt, a Replacement Revolving Credit Facility shall not require
the consent of any Person other than the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders
providing such Replacement Revolving Credit Facility.

     Section 9.11. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of
such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any
such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render
unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

     Section 9.12. Headings. Section headings used herein are for convenience only and are not to
affect the construction of or be taken into consideration in interpreting this Agreement.

     Section 9.13. Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which taken together shall
constitute one and the same instrument.

     Section 9.14. Prior Agreements. This Agreement represents the entire agreement of the parties
with regard to the subject matter hereof and the terms of any letters and other documentation
entered into between the Borrower and any Lender or the Administrative Agent prior to the execution
of this Agreement which relate to Loans to be made hereunder shall be replaced by the terms of this
Agreement (except as otherwise expressly provided herein with respect to the Fee Letter).

     Section 9.15. Further Assurances. Whenever and so often as reasonably requested by the
Administrative Agent, the Borrower will promptly execute and deliver or cause to be executed and
delivered all such other and further instruments, documents or assurances, and promptly do or cause
to be done all such other and further things as may be necessary and reasonably required in order
to further and more fully vest in the Administrative Agent all rights, interests, powers, benefits,
privileges and advantages conferred or intended to be conferred by this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents.

128

 

     Section 9.16. Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO
TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY OF THE
LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREBY.

     Section 9.17. 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 “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 Act.
