SECOND LIEN TERM
LOAN AGREEMENT

 

This SECOND LIEN TERM LOAN AGREEMENT is dated
as of November 1, 2005 and entered into by and among PENHALL INTERNATIONAL
CORP., an Arizona corporation (“Borrower”),
the financial institutions who are or hereafter become parties to this
Agreement as Lenders, and DEUTSCHE BANK TRUST COMPANY AMERICAS (in its individual capacity “DBTCA”), as Agent.

 

R  E  C  I
T  A  L  S:

 

WHEREAS, Borrower desires that Lenders extend
a second lien term loan facility to Borrower to fund the repayment of certain
indebtedness and preferred stock of Borrower; and

 

WHEREAS, the Guarantors are willing to
guaranty all of the Obligations of Borrower; and

 

WHEREAS, each Credit Party has agreed to
secure all of the Obligations by granting to Agent, for the benefit of Agent
and Lenders, a security interest in and lien upon all of its existing and
after-acquired personal and real property that is collateral for the First Lien
Obligations; and

 

WHEREAS, all capitalized terms herein shall
have the meanings ascribed thereto in Annex A hereto, which is incorporated
herein by reference.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the
premises and the agreements, provisions and covenants herein contained,
Borrower, Lenders and Agent agree as follows:

 

SECTION 1.

 

THE LOAN

 

1.1.                            Loans.

 

(a)                                 Commitments.  Subject to the terms and conditions hereof,
each Lender severally agrees to make, on the Closing Date, a Loan to Borrower
in an amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment.  Borrower may make only one borrowing under the
Commitments, which shall be on the Closing Date.  Any amount borrowed under this Section 1.1
and subsequently repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed.  Subject to Sections 1.7 through 1.10,
all amounts owed hereunder with respect to the Loans shall be paid in full no
later than the Maturity Date.  Each
Lender’s Commitment shall terminate immediately and without further action on
the Closing Date after giving effect to the funding of such Lender’s Commitment
on such date.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, all the Commitments shall automatically terminate at 5:00 p.m.,
New York City time, on the date that is three Business Days after the date of
this Agreement, if the Closing Date shall not have occurred by such time.

 

 

(b)                                 Borrowing
Mechanics for Loans.  Borrower shall
deliver to the Agent a fully executed Notice of Borrowing no later than 11:00
a.m. (New York City time) one (1) Business Day prior to the Closing Date.  Promptly upon receipt by the Agent of such Notice
of Borrowing, the Agent shall notify each Lender of the proposed
borrowing.  Each Lender shall make its
Loan available to the Agent not later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on
the Closing Date, by wire transfer of same day funds in Dollars, at the Agent’s
Principal Office.  Upon satisfaction or
waiver of the conditions precedent specified herein, the Agent shall make the
proceeds of the Loans available to Borrower on the Closing Date by causing an
amount of same day funds in Dollars equal to the proceeds of all such Loans
received by the Agent from the Lenders to be credited to the account of Borrower
at the Agent’s Principal Office or to such other account as may be designated
in writing to the Agent by Borrower.

 

1.2.                            Evidence
of Debt; Register; Lenders’ Books and Records; Notes.

 

(a)                                 Lenders’
Evidence of Debt.  Each Lender shall
maintain on its internal records an account or accounts evidencing the
Obligations of Borrower to such Lender, including the amounts of the Loans made
by it and each repayment and prepayment in respect thereof.  Any such recordation shall be prima facie
evidence of the matters so recorded; provided that
the failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation,
shall not affect any Lender’s Commitments or Borrower’s Obligations in respect
of any Loans.

 

(b)                                 Register.  The Agent shall, on behalf of Borrower,
maintain at its Principal Office a register for the recordation of the names
and addresses of Lenders and the Commitments and Loans of each Lender from time
to time (the “Register”).  The
Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower or any Lender at any
reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.  The Agent shall record in the Register the
Commitments and the Loans, the Type of Loan thereof and, if applicable, the
Interest Period applicable thereto, each repayment or prepayment in respect of
the principal amount of the Loans and each assignment thereof pursuant to Section
9.4(c), and any such recordation shall be prima facie evidence of the
matters so recorded; provided
failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall
not affect Borrower’s Obligations in respect of any Loan.  Borrower hereby designates DBTCA to serve as
Borrower’s representative solely for purposes of maintaining the Register as
provided in this Section 1.2(b), and Borrower hereby agrees that, to the
extent DBTCA serves in such capacity, DBTCA and its Related Parties shall
constitute “Indemnitees.”

 

(c)                                  Notes.  If so requested by any Lender by written
notice to Borrower (with a copy to the Agent) at least two Business Days prior
to the Closing Date, or at any time thereafter, Borrower shall execute and
deliver to such Lender (and/or, if applicable and if so specified in such notice,
to any Person who is an assignee of such Lender pursuant to Section 9.4(c))
on the Closing Date (or, if such notice is delivered after the Closing Date,
promptly after Borrower’s receipt of such notice) a Note or Notes to evidence
such Lender’s Loan.

1.3.                            Interest
on Loans.

 

(a)                                 Except
as otherwise set forth herein, the Loans shall bear interest on the unpaid
principal amount thereof from the date made through repayment (whether by
acceleration or otherwise) thereof as follows:

 

(A)            if an ABR Loan, at the
Alternative Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin; and

 

(B)            if a Eurodollar Loan,
at the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

 

The basis for
determining the rate of interest with respect to any Loan and the Interest
Period with respect to any Eurodollar Loan shall be selected by Borrower and
notified to the Agent and Lenders pursuant to the applicable Notice of
Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation, as the case may be; provided (i) unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative
Agent, the Loans initially shall be made as ABR Loans until the date which is
five (5) Business Days following the Closing Date and (ii) until the date that
the Administrative Agent notifies Borrower that the primary syndication of the
Loans has been completed, as determined by the Administrative Agent, the Loans
shall be maintained as either (1) Eurodollar Loans having an Interest Period of
no longer than one month or (2) ABR Loans.

 

(b)                                 If
on any day a Loan is outstanding with respect to which a Notice of Borrowing or
Notice of Conversion/Continuation has not been delivered to the Agent in
accordance with the terms hereof specifying the applicable basis for determining
the rate of interest, then for that day such Loan shall be an ABR Loan.

 

(c)                                  In
connection with Eurodollar Loans there shall be no more than 4 (four) Interest
Periods outstanding at any time.  In the
event Borrower fails to specify between an ABR Loan or a Eurodollar Loan in the
applicable Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation (or, in the
case of the conversion or continuation of a Loan, fails to deliver a Notice of
Conversion/Continuation with respect thereto), such Loan (if outstanding as a
Eurodollar Loan) will be automatically converted into an ABR Loan on the last
day of the then current Interest Period for such Loan (or if outstanding as an
ABR Loan will remain as, or (if not then outstanding) will be made as, an ABR
Loan).  In the event Borrower fails to
specify an Interest Period for any Eurodollar Loan in the applicable Notice of
Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation, Borrower shall be deemed to
have selected an Interest Period of one month. 
As soon as practicable after 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on each
Interest Rate Determination Date, the Agent shall determine (which determination
shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding upon all
parties) the interest rate that shall apply to the Eurodollar Loans for which
an interest rate is then being determined for the applicable Interest Period
and shall promptly give notice thereof (in writing or by telephone confirmed in
writing) to Borrower and each Lender.

 

(d)                                 Interest
payable pursuant to Section 1.7(a) shall be computed (i) in the case of
ABR Loans, on the basis of a 365/366-day year for the actual number of days
elapsed

 

3

 

in the period during which such interest accrues, and (ii) in the case
of Eurodollar Loans, on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of
days elapsed in the period during which it accrues.  In computing interest on any Loan, the date
of the making of such Loan or the first day of an Interest Period applicable to
such Loan or, with respect to an ABR Loan being converted from a Eurodollar
Loan, the date of conversion of such Eurodollar Loan to such ABR Loan, as the
case may be, shall be included, and the date of payment of such Loan or the
expiration date of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect
to an ABR Loan being converted to a Eurodollar Loan, the date of conversion of
such ABR Loan to such Eurodollar Loan, as the case may be, shall be excluded; provided if a Loan is repaid on the same day on which it is
made, one day’s interest shall be paid on that Loan.

 

(e)                                  Except
as otherwise set forth herein, interest on each Loan shall be payable in
arrears on and to (i) each Interest Payment Date; (ii) upon any prepayment of
that Loan, whether voluntary or mandatory, to the extent accrued on the amount
being prepaid; and (iii) at maturity, including the Maturity Date.

 

1.4.                            Conversion/Continuation.

 

(a)                                 Subject
to Section 1.14 and so long as (x) no Event of Default shall have
occurred and then is continuing, Borrower shall have the option:

 

(i)                                     to
convert at any time all or any part of any Loan equal to $5,000,000 and
integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount from one Type of Loan
to another Type of Loan; provided a
Eurodollar Loan may only be converted on the expiration of the Interest Period
applicable to such Eurodollar Loan unless Borrower shall pay all amounts due
under Section 1.14 in connection with any such conversion; or

 

(ii)                                  upon
the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to any Eurodollar Loan, to
continue all or any portion of such Loan equal to $1,000,000 and integral
multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount as a Eurodollar Loan.

 

(b)                                 In
order to exercise any conversion option pursuant to Section 1.4(a)(i) or
continuation option pursuant to Section 1.4(a)(ii), Borrower shall
deliver a Notice of Conversion/Continuation to the Agent no later than 1:00 p.m.
(New York City time) at least one Business Day in advance of the proposed
conversion date (in the case of a conversion to an ABR Loan) and at least three
Business Days in advance of the proposed conversion/continuation date (in the
case of a conversion to, or a continuation of, a Eurodollar Loan).  Except as otherwise provided herein, a Notice
of Conversion/Continuation for conversion to, or continuation of, any
Eurodollar Loans shall be irrevocable on and after the related Interest Rate
Determination Date, and Borrower shall be bound to effect a conversion or continuation
in accordance therewith.  If Borrower
shall fail to give any required notice as described in Section 1.4(a) or
if such continuation is not permitted pursuant thereto, such Loans

 

4

 

shall be automatically converted to ABR Loans on the last day of such
then expiring Interest Period.

 

1.5.                            Default
Interest.  Upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Event of Default under Section 6.1(a), the
principal amount of all Loans outstanding and any interest payments on the
Loans or any fees or other amounts owed hereunder shall thereafter bear interest
(including post-petition interest in any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code
or other applicable bankruptcy laws) payable on demand at a rate that is equal
to the lesser of (a) 2.0% per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise
payable hereunder with respect to the applicable Loans (or, in the case of any
such fees and other amounts, at a rate which is 2.0% per annum in excess of the
interest rate otherwise payable hereunder for ABR Loans) and (b) the maximum
rate of interest permitted under applicable law; provided
in the case of Eurodollar Loans, upon the expiration of the Interest Period in
effect at the time any such increase in interest rate is effective such
Eurodollar Loans shall thereupon become ABR Loans and shall thereafter bear
interest payable upon demand at a rate which is equal to the lesser of (i) 2.0%
per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable hereunder for ABR
Loans and (ii) the maximum rate of interest permitted under applicable
law.  Payment or acceptance of the
increased rates of interest provided for in this Section 1.5 is not a
permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of
any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of
the Agent or any Lender.

 

1.6.                            Fees
  Borrower agrees to pay to Agent and
Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. such fees in the amounts and at the times
separately agreed upon.  Once paid, none
of the fees referred to in this Section 1.6 shall be refundable under
any circumstances.

 

1.7.                            Repayments.  The Loans and all other amounts owed
hereunder with respect thereto, shall, in any event, be paid in full no later
than the Maturity Date.

 

1.8.                            Prepayments
and Repayment Premiums.

 

(a)                                 Voluntary
Prepayments.

 

(i)                                     At
any time and from time to time:

 

(A)            with respect to ABR
Loans, Borrower may prepay any such Loans on any Business Day in whole or in
part; provided that each partial prepayment
shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of
$1,000,000 in excess of that amount; and

 

(B)            with respect to
Eurodollar Loans, Borrower may prepay any such Loans on any Business Day in
whole or in part; provided that each partial
prepayment shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral
multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount.

 

5

 

(ii)                                  All
such prepayments shall be made:

 

(A)            upon not less than one
Business Day’s prior written or telephonic notice in the case of ABR Loans; and

 

(B)            upon not less than three
Business Days’ prior written or telephonic notice in the case of Eurodollar
Loans,

 

in each case
given to the Agent by 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date required and,
if given by telephone, promptly confirmed in writing to the Agent (and the Agent
will promptly transmit such telephonic or original notice for Loans by
facsimile or telephone to each applicable Lender).  Upon the giving of any such notice, the
principal amount of the Loans specified in such notice shall become due and
payable on the prepayment date specified therein.  Any such voluntary prepayment shall be
applied as specified in Sections 1.10 and 1.11.

 

(b)                                 Repayment
Premium.  In the event that the Loans
are prepaid or repaid pursuant to Section 1.8(a) , Section 1.9(a), (b) or (d) or Section 1.18 in whole
or in part prior to the two-year anniversary of the Closing Date, Borrower
shall pay to the Lenders a repayment premium (expressed as a percentage of the
principal amount of Loans prepaid or repaid) on the amount so prepaid or repaid
in the amount set forth opposite the time period below in which such prepayment
or repayment occurs:

1.9.                            Mandatory
Prepayments.  The Loans shall be
repaid in the manner provided in Sections 1.9(a) through 1.9(e)
below (together with any repayment premium required in accordance with Section
1.8(b)):

 

(a)                                 Not
later than the third Business Day following the completion of any Specified
Asset Disposition or the occurrence of any Specified Recovery Event, Borrower
shall apply 100% of the Net Proceeds received with respect thereto to prepay
outstanding Loans in accordance with Section 1.10; provided
that (x) the Net Proceeds from any Specified Asset Disposition or
Specified Recovery Event shall not be required to be applied as provided herein
on such date if and to the extent that Borrower delivers an officers’
certificate to the Agent within three Business Days after the date

 

6

 

of such Specified Asset Disposition or Specified Recovery Event stating
that the Net Proceeds therefrom shall be reinvested in capital assets of
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries in each case within 180 days following the
date of such Specified Asset Disposition or such Specified Recovery Event
(which certificate shall set forth the estimates of the proceeds to be so expended),
and (y) if all or any portion of such Net Proceeds not so applied as
provided herein is not allocated to reinvestment in respect of a project that
shall have been commenced, and for which binding contractual commitments have
been entered into to be completed within 180 days after such 180-day period,
prior to the end of such 180-day period, such remaining portion shall be
applied on the last day of such period (or if any Net Proceeds allocated to
such an investment on such 180th day shall cease to be so allocated
or any such contractual commitment shall cease to be in effect and
contractually committed or shall not actually have been so expended on or prior
to the 180th day following such 180 day period, such remaining
portion shall be applied on the date it ceases to be so allocated and
contractually committed or on the 181st day following such 180-day
period) as specified in this Section 1.9(a); provided,
further, that to the extent any such Net
Proceeds are applied to a permanent repayment of Indebtedness (with a corresponding
reduction in the commitments) permitted by Section 3.1(d), such Net
Proceeds shall not be required to be applied pursuant to this Section 1.9(a).

 

(b)                                 In
the event that Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries shall receive Net Proceeds
from the issuance or other incurrence of Indebtedness by Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries pursuant to Section 3.1(i) in excess of $25,000,000
for all such Indebtedness issued during the term of this Agreement, Borrower
shall, substantially simultaneously with (and in any event not later than the
third Business Day next following) the receipt of such Net Proceeds by Borrower
or such Subsidiary, apply an amount equal to 100% of such Net Proceeds to
prepay outstanding Loans in accordance with Section 1.10.

 

(c)                                  In
the event that Borrower’s Leverage Ratio as of the last day of any Excess Cash
Flow Period of Borrower exceeds 4.00:1.00, then no later than the earlier of
(i) 90 days after the end of such Excess Cash Flow Period, commencing
with the Excess Cash Flow Period ending on June 30, 2006, and (ii) the
date on which the financial statements with respect to the Fiscal Year ending
on the last day of such Excess Cash Flow Period are delivered pursuant to Section
4.4(c), Borrower shall prepay outstanding Loans in accordance with Section
1.10, in an aggregate principal amount equal to 50% of Excess Cash Flow for
such Excess Cash Flow Period.

 

(d)                                 In
the event that, without duplication, Borrower shall receive Net Proceeds from
any Specified Equity Issuance, Borrower shall, not later than the third
Business Day next following the date of receipt of such Net Proceeds, apply an
amount equal to 100% of such Net Proceeds to prepay outstanding Loans in
accordance with Section 1.10; provided that
to the extent any such Net Proceeds are applied to a permanent repayment of
Indebtedness (with a corresponding reduction in the

 

7

 

commitments) permitted by Section 3.1(d), such Net Proceeds shall
not be required to be applied pursuant to this Section 1.9(d)..

 

(e)                                  Borrower
shall deliver to the Agent, at the time of each prepayment required under this Section
1.9, (i) a certificate signed by a Responsible Officer of Borrower setting
forth in reasonable detail the calculation of the amount of such prepayment and
(ii) to the extent practicable, at least three days’ prior written notice
of such prepayment.  Each notice of
prepayment shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each
Loan (or portion thereof) to be prepaid. 
In the event that Borrower shall subsequently determine that the actual
amount received exceeded the amount set forth in such certificate, Borrower
shall promptly make an additional prepayment of the Loans in an amount equal to
such excess, and Borrower shall concurrently therewith deliver to the Agent a
certificate of a Responsible Officer of Borrower demonstrating the derivation
of such excess.

 

1.10.                     Application
of Prepayments.  Any prepayment of
any Loans pursuant to Section 1.8 or Section 1.9 shall, subject
to Section 1.11, be applied to prepay the Loans on a pro rata basis to
the full extent thereof.

 

1.11.                     Application
of Prepayments of Loans to ABR Loans and Eurodollar Rate Loans.  Any prepayment of Loans shall be applied
first to any outstanding ABR Loans to the full extent thereof before application
to Eurodollar Loans, in each case in a manner which minimizes the amount of any
payments required to be made by Borrower pursuant to Section 1.14(c).

 

1.12.                     General
Provisions Regarding Payments.

 

(a)                                 All
payments by Borrower of principal, interest, fees and other Obligations shall
be made in Dollars in same day funds, without defense, setoff or counterclaim,
free of any restriction or condition, and delivered to the Agent not later than
12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date due at the Agent’s Principal Office
for the account of the Lenders.

 

(b)                                 All
payments in respect of the principal amount of any Loan shall be accompanied by
payment of accrued interest and any required repayment premium pursuant to Section
1.8(b) on the principal amount being repaid or prepaid.

 

(c)                                  The
Agent shall promptly distribute to each Lender at such address as such Lender
shall indicate in writing, such Lender’s applicable Pro Rata Share of all
payments and prepayments of principal and interest due hereunder, together with
all other amounts due with respect thereto, including, without limitation, all
fees payable with respect thereto (or, to the extent any such amounts are paid
with respect to any such Lender’s interests individually, the Agent shall
promptly distribute to such Lender such amounts), to the extent received by the
Agent.

 

8

 

(d)                                 Notwithstanding
the foregoing provisions hereof, if any Notice of Conversion/Continuation is
withdrawn as to any Affected Lender or if any Affected Lender makes ABR Loans
in lieu of its Pro Rata Share of any Eurodollar Rate Loans, the Agent shall
give effect thereto in apportioning payments received thereafter.

 

(e)                                  Subject
to the provisos set forth in the definition of “Interest Period”, whenever any
payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a
Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day
and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of the payment
of interest hereunder.

 

(f)                                   Borrower
hereby authorizes the Agent to charge Borrower’s accounts with the Agent in
order to cause timely payment to be made to the Agent of all principal,
interest, fees and expenses due hereunder (subject to sufficient funds being
available in its accounts for that purpose).

 

(g)                                  The
Agent shall deem any payment by or on behalf of Borrower hereunder that is not
made in same day funds prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) at the Agent’s
Principal Office to be a non-conforming payment.  Any such payment shall not be deemed to have
been received by the Agent until the later of (i) the time such funds become
available funds, and (ii) the applicable next Business Day.  The Agent shall give prompt telephonic notice
to Borrower and each applicable Lender (confirmed in writing) if any payment is
non-conforming.  Any non-conforming
payment may constitute or become a Default or Event of Default in accordance
with the terms of Section 6.  Interest
shall continue to accrue on any principal as to which a non-conforming payment
is made until such funds become available funds (but in no event less than the
period from the date of such payment to the next succeeding applicable Business
Day) at the rate determined pursuant to Section 1.5 from the date such
amount was due and payable until the date such amount is paid in full.

 

(h)                                 If
an Event of Default shall have occurred and not otherwise been waived, and the
maturity of the Obligations shall have been accelerated pursuant to Section
6, all payments or proceeds received by the Agent hereunder in respect of
any of the Obligations shall be applied in accordance with Section 6.4.

 

1.13.                     Ratable
Sharing.  Except to the extent that
this Agreement or any other Loan Document provides for payments to be allocated
to a particular Lender or Lenders (and except as provided in the Collateral
Documents with respect to amounts realized from the exercise of rights with
respect to Liens on the Collateral), the Lenders hereby agree among themselves
that if any of them shall, whether by voluntary payment (other than a voluntary
prepayment of Loans made and applied in accordance with the terms hereof),
through the exercise of any right of set off or banker’s lien, by counterclaim
or cross-action or by the enforcement of any right under the Loan Documents or
otherwise, or as adequate protection of a deposit treated as cash collateral
under the Bankruptcy Code, receive payment or reduction of a proportion of the
aggregate amount of principal, interest, fees and other amounts then due and
owing to such Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (collectively,
the

 

9

 

“Aggregate Amounts Due”
to such Lender) which is greater than the proportion received by any other
Lender in respect of the Aggregate Amounts Due to such other Lender, then the
Lender receiving such proportionately greater payment shall (a) notify the
Agent and each other Lender of the receipt of such payment and (b) apply a
portion of such payment to purchase participations (which it shall be deemed to
have purchased from each seller of a participation simultaneously upon the
receipt by such seller of its portion of such payment) in the Aggregate Amounts
Due to the other Lenders so that all such recoveries of Aggregate Amounts Due
shall be shared by all Lenders in proportion to the Aggregate Amounts Due to
them; provided if all or part of such
proportionately greater payment received by such purchasing Lender is
thereafter recovered from such Lender upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of
Borrower or otherwise, those purchases shall be rescinded and the purchase
prices paid for such participations shall be returned to such purchasing Lender
ratably to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.  Borrower expressly consents to the foregoing
arrangement and agrees that any holder of a participation so purchased may exercise
any and all rights of banker’s lien, set off or counterclaim with respect to
any and all monies owing by Borrower to that holder with respect thereto as
fully as if that holder were owed the amount of the participation held by that
holder.  The provisions of this Section
1.13 shall be subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement.

 

1.14.                     Making or
Maintaining Eurodollar Rate Loans.

 

(a)                                 Inability
to Determine Applicable Interest Rate. 
In the event that (x) the Agent shall have determined (which
determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties
hereto), on any Interest Rate Determination Date with respect to any Eurodollar
Loans, that by reason of circumstances affecting the London interbank market adequate
and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the interest rate applicable to
such Loans on the basis provided for in the definition of “Adjusted Eurodollar
Rate”, or (y) prior to the commencement of any Interest Period with respect to
Eurodollar Loans the Agent is advised by the Requisite Lenders that the Adjusted
Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect
the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining such Eurodollar Loans for
such Interest Period, the Agent shall on such date give notice (by facsimile or
by telephone confirmed in writing) to Borrower and each Lender of such
determination, whereupon (i) no Loans may be made as, or converted to,
Eurodollar Loans until such time as the Agent notifies Borrower and Lenders
that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, and (ii) any
Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation given by Borrower with
respect to the Loans in respect of which such determination was made shall be
deemed to be rescinded by Borrower.

 

(b)                                 Illegality
or Impracticability of Eurodollar Loans. 
In the event that on any date any Lender shall have determined (which
determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto
but shall be made only after consultation with Borrower and the Agent) that the
making, maintaining or continuation of its Eurodollar Loans (i) has become
unlawful as a result of compliance by such Lender in good faith with any law,
treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order (or would conflict
with any such treaty, governmental

 

10

 

rule, regulation, guideline or order not having the force of law even
though the failure to comply therewith would not be unlawful), or (ii) has
become impracticable, as a result of contingencies occurring after the date
hereof which materially and adversely affect the London interbank market or the
position of such Lender in that market, then, and in any such event, such
Lender shall be an “Affected Lender” and it shall on that day give
notice (by facsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Borrower and the
Agent of such determination (which notice the Agent shall promptly transmit to
each other Lender).  Thereafter (1) the obligation
of the Affected Lender to make Loans as, or to convert Loans to, Eurodollar
Loans shall be suspended until such notice shall be withdrawn by the Affected
Lender, (2) to the extent such determination by the Affected Lender relates to
a Eurodollar Loan then being requested by Borrower pursuant to a Notice of
Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, the Affected Lender shall
make such Loan as (or continue such Loan as or convert such Loan to, as the
case may be) an ABR Loan, (3) the Affected Lender’s obligation to maintain its
outstanding Eurodollar Loans (the “Affected Loans”) shall be terminated
at the earlier to occur of the expiration of the Interest Period then in effect
with respect to the Affected Loans or when required by law, and (4) the
Affected Loans shall automatically convert into ABR Loans on the date of such
termination.  Notwithstanding the foregoing,
to the extent a determination by an Affected Lender as described above relates
to a Eurodollar Loan then being requested by Borrower pursuant to a Notice of
Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, Borrower shall have the
option, subject to the provisions of Section 1.14(c), to rescind such
Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation as to all Lenders by
giving notice (by facsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Agent
of such rescission on the date on which the Affected Lender gives notice of its
determination as described above (which notice of rescission the Agent shall
promptly transmit to each other Lender). 
Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, nothing in
this Section 1.14(b) shall affect the obligation of any Lender other
than an Affected Lender to make or maintain Loans as, or to convert Loans to,
Eurodollar Loans in accordance with the terms hereof.

 

(c)                                  Indemnity
for Breakage or Non-Commencement of Interest Periods.  Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against
any loss or expense that such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of
(i) any event, other than a default by such Lender in the performance of
its obligations hereunder, which results in (A) such Lender receiving or being
deemed to receive any amount on account of the principal of any Eurodollar Loan
prior to the end of the Interest Period in effect therefor, (B) the conversion
of any Eurodollar Loan to an ABR Loan, or the conversion of the Interest Period
with respect to any Eurodollar Loan, in each case other than on the last day of
the Interest Period in effect therefor, or (C) a borrowing of any Eurodollar
Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or a
conversion to or continuation of any Eurodollar Loan does not occur on a date
specified therefor in a Notice of Conversion/Continuation (any of the events
referred to in this clause (i) being called a “Breakage Event”) or
(ii) any default in the making of any payment or prepayment required to be
made hereunder.  In the case of any
Breakage Event, such loss shall include an amount equal to the excess, as
reasonably determined by such Lender, of (A) its cost of obtaining funds for
the Eurodollar Loan that is the subject of such Breakage Event for the

 

11

 

period from the date of such Breakage Event to the last day of the
Interest Period in effect (or that would have been in effect) for such Loan
over (B) the amount of interest likely to be realized by such Lender in
redeploying the funds released or not utilized by reason of such Breakage Event
for such period.  A certificate of any
Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of any amount or amounts
which such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 1.14(c)
shall be delivered to Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 

1.15.                     Reserve
Requirements; Change in Circumstances.

 

(a)                                 Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, if any Change in Law shall:

 

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

 

(ii)                                  subject
any Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement or
any Eurodollar Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to
such Lender in respect thereof (except for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 1.16 and the imposition of, or
any change in the rate of, any Excluded Taxes payable by such Lender); or

 

(iii)                               impose
on any Lender or the Agent or the London interbank market any other condition
affecting this Agreement or 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 of maintaining its obligation to make
any such Loan) or to increase the cost to any Lender or the Agent 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 or the
Agent to be material, then Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Agent, as
the case may be, upon demand such additional amount or amounts as will compensate
such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

 

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

 

12

 

Lender or the Agent, as the case may be, such additional amount or
amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Agent or such Lender’s or the
Agent’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

 

(c)                                  A
certificate of a Lender or the Agent setting forth a calculation in reasonable
detail of the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the
Agent or its holding company, as applicable, as specified in Section 1.15(a)
or (b) shall be delivered to Borrower and shall be conclusive absent
manifest error.  Borrower shall pay such
Lender or the Agent, as the case may be, the amount or amounts shown as due on
any such certificate delivered by it within 10 days after its receipt of
the same.

 

(d)                                 Failure
or delay on the part of any Lender or the Agent to demand compensation pursuant
to this Section 1.15 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or
the Agent’s right to demand such compensation; provided
that Borrower shall not be under any obligation to compensate any Lender or the
Agent under clause (a) or (b) of this Section 1.15 for increased costs
or reductions with respect to any period prior to the date that is more than
180 days prior to such request if such Lender or the Agent knew or could reasonably
have been expected to know of the circumstances giving rise to such increased
costs or reductions and of the fact that such circumstances would result in a
claim for increased compensation by reason of such increased costs or
reductions; provided, further,
that the foregoing limitation shall not apply to any increased costs or
reductions arising out of the retroactive application of any Change in Law
within such 180-day period.  The
protection of this Section 1.15 shall be available to each Lender and
the Agent regardless of any possible contention of the invalidity or
inapplicability of the Change in Law that shall have occurred or been imposed.

 

1.16.                     Taxes.

 

(a)                                 Any
and all payments by or on account of any obligation of Borrower or any other
Credit Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and
clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes are
required to be withheld or deducted from such payments, then (i) the sum
payable by Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after making all
required deductions or withholdings (including deductions or withholdings
applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 1.16) the Agent
or Lender (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would
have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) Borrower or such
other Credit Party shall make (or cause to be made) such deductions and
(iii) Borrower or such other Credit Party shall pay (or cause to be paid)
the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance
with applicable law.  In addition,
without limiting the foregoing provisions, Borrower or any other Credit Party
hereunder shall pay (or cause to be paid) any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental
Authority in accordance with applicable law. 
The obligation of Borrower or any other Credit Party to a Foreign Lender
under this Section 1.16(a) is subject to the Foreign Lender’s compliance
with the obligation imposed on such Foreign Lender in Section 1.16(d)
below.

 

13

 

(b)                                 Borrower
shall indemnify the Agent and each Lender, within 10 days after written demand
therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by
the Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, or any of their respective Affiliates,
on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of
Borrower or any Credit Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document
(including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or
attributable to amounts payable under this Section 1.16) and any
penalties, interest and expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto
(other than penalties or interest attributable to (i) a failure or delay by the
Agent or such Lender, as applicable, in making such written demand to Borrower
or (ii) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Agent or such Lender,
as applicable (in each case, as determined by a final and nonappealable
decision of a court of competent jurisdiction)), whether or not such
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted
by the relevant Governmental Authority. 
A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to
Borrower by a Lender, or by the Agent on its behalf or on behalf of a Lender,
shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 

(c)                                  As
soon as practicable (and in any event within 30 days) after any payment of
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by Borrower or any other Credit Party to a
Governmental Authority, Borrower shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) to
the Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such
Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting
such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the
Agent.

 

(d)                                 Any
Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of
withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which Borrower is located,
or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments
under this Agreement shall deliver to Borrower (with a copy to the Agent), at
the reasonable written request of Borrower, such properly completed and
executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such
payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding; provided that such Lender is legally entitled to complete,
execute and deliver such documentation. 
In addition, any Lender, if requested by Borrower or the Agent, shall
deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably
requested by Borrower or the Agent as will enable Borrower or the Agent to
determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information
reporting requirements.  Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, any Foreign Lender shall deliver to Borrower
and the Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient)
on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under
this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon request of Borrower or
the Agent, but only if such Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do so),
whichever of the following is applicable: 
(i) two accurate and complete originally executed U.S. IRS Form
W-8BEN (or successor form) or (ii) an accurate and complete U.S. IRS Forms
W-8ECI (or successor form), certifying, in either case, to such Foreign Lender’s
legal entitlement to an exemption from or reduction in U.S. federal withholding
tax with respect to all interest payments hereunder; provided
that any Foreign Lender that is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A)
of the IRC and is relying on the so-called “portfolio

 

14

 

interest exemption” shall also furnish a “Non-Bank Certificate” in the
form of Exhibit 1.16(d) together with two accurate and complete
originally executed U.S. IRS Forms W-8BEN (or successor form) and such other
documentation reasonably requested by Borrower to establish that such Lender is
not subject to deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax
with respect to any payments to such Lender of interest payable under this Agreement
or any other document related thereto.

 

(e)                                  Any
Lender that is a United States person, as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the
IRC, and is not an exempt recipient within the meaning of Treasury Regulations
Section 1.6049-4(c) shall deliver to Borrower (with a copy to the Agent), at
the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by
Borrower, two accurate and complete original signed copies of IRS Form W-9, or
any successor form that such person is entitled to provide at such time in
order to comply with United States backup withholding requirements.

 

(f)                                   If
the Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received
a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by
Borrower or with respect to which Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant
to this Section 1.16, it shall pay to Borrower an amount equal to such
refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional
amounts paid, by Borrower under this Section 1.16 with respect to the
Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket
expenses of the Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and without interest
(other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with
respect to such refund); provided that
Borrower, upon the request of the Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the
amount paid over to Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges
imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Agent or such Lender in
the event the Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such
Governmental Authority.  This Section
1.16(f) shall not be construed to require the Agent or any Lender to make
available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that
it deems confidential) to Borrower or any other Person.

 

(g)                                  Without
prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of Borrower hereunder, the
agreements and obligations of Borrower contained in this Section 1.16
shall survive the payment in full of all amounts due hereunder.

 

1.17.                     Obligation
to Mitigate.  Each Lender agrees
that, as promptly as practicable after the officer of such Lender responsible
for administering its Loans becomes aware of the occurrence of an event or the
existence of a condition that would cause such Lender to become an Affected
Lender or that would entitle such Lender to receive payments under Section
1.14, 1.15 or 1.16, it will, to the extent not inconsistent
with the internal policies of such Lender and any applicable legal or
regulatory restrictions, use reasonable efforts to (a) make, fund or maintain
its Loans, including any Affected Loans, through another office of such Lender,
or (b) take such other measures as such Lender may deem reasonable, if as
a result thereof the circumstances which would cause such Lender to be an
Affected Lender would cease to exist or the additional amounts which would otherwise
be required to be paid to such

 

15

 

Lender pursuant to Section
1.14, 1.15 or 1.16 would be materially reduced and if, as
determined by such Lender in its sole discretion, the making, issuing, funding
or maintaining of such Loans through such other office or in accordance with
such other measures, as the case may be, would not otherwise adversely affect
such Loans or the interests of such Lender; provided such
Lender will not be obligated to utilize such other office pursuant to this Section
1.17 unless Borrower agrees to pay all incremental expenses incurred by
such Lender as a result of utilizing such other office as described in clause
(a) above.  A certificate as to the
amount of any such expenses payable by Borrower pursuant to this Section
1.17 (setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such
amount) submitted by such Lender to Borrower (with a copy to the Agent) shall
be conclusive absent manifest error.

 

1.18.                     Removal or
Replacement of a Lender.  Anything
contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that: (a) (i)
any Lender (an “Increased-Cost Lender”) shall give notice to Borrower
that such Lender is an Affected Lender or that such Lender is entitled to
receive payments under Section 1.14, 1.15 or 1.16, (ii)
the circumstances which have caused such Lender to be an Affected Lender or
which entitle such Lender to receive such payments shall remain in effect, and
(iii) such Lender shall fail to withdraw such notice within five Business Days
after Borrower’s request for such withdrawal; or (b) in connection with any
proposed amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent with respect
to any of the provisions of this Agreement as contemplated by Section 9.8,
the consent of the Requisite Lenders shall have been obtained but the consent
of one or more of such other Lenders (each a “Non-Consenting Lender”)
whose consent is required shall not have been obtained; then, with respect to
each such Increased-Cost Lender or Non-Consenting Lender (the “Terminated
Lender”), Borrower may, by giving written notice to the Agent and any
Terminated Lender of its election to do so, elect to cause such Terminated
Lender (and such Terminated Lender hereby irrevocably agrees) to assign its
outstanding Loans, in full, to one or more Eligible Assignees (each a “Replacement
Lender”) in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.4(c) and
Borrower shall pay any fees payable thereunder in connection with such assignment;
provided (1) on the date of such
assignment, the Replacement Lender shall pay to the Terminated Lender an amount
equal to the principal of, and all accrued interest on, all outstanding Loans
of the Terminated Lender, together with any repayment premium pursuant to Section
1.8(b) that would be payable were the Loans of such Terminated Lender being
optionally repaid on such date; (2) on the date of such assignment, Borrower
shall pay any amounts payable to such Terminated Lender pursuant to Section
1.14(c), 1.15 or 1.16 or otherwise as if it were a
prepayment; and (3) in the event such Terminated Lender is a Non-Consenting
Lender, each Replacement Lender shall consent, at the time of such assignment,
to each matter in respect of which such Terminated Lender was a Non-Consenting
Lender.  Upon the prepayment of all
amounts owing to any Terminated Lender, such Terminated Lender shall no longer
constitute a “Lender” for purposes hereof (and without any further action
required by such Terminated Lender); provided any
rights of such Terminated Lender to indemnification hereunder shall survive as
to such Terminated Lender.

SECTION 2.

 

AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS

 

Borrower agrees that from and after the date
hereof and until the Maturity Date:

 

2.1.                            Compliance
with Laws and Contractual Obligations. 
Borrower will (a) comply with and shall cause each of its
Subsidiaries to comply with (i) the requirements of all applicable laws,
rules, regulations and orders of any Governmental Authority (including, without
limitation, laws, rules, regulations and orders relating to taxes, employer and
employee contributions, securities, employee retirement and welfare benefits
and employee health and safety) as now in effect and which may be imposed in
the future in all jurisdictions in which Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is
now doing business or may hereafter be doing business; provided
that this clause (i) shall not include environmental protection matters which
shall be governed by Section 2.5 and (ii) the obligations,
covenants and conditions contained in all Contractual Obligations of Borrower
or any of its Subsidiaries other than those arising under the First Lien Credit
Agreement and those laws, rules, regulations, orders and provisions of such Contractual
Obligations the noncompliance with which could not be reasonably expected to
have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect, and
(b) maintain or obtain and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to
maintain or obtain all licenses, qualifications and permits now held or
hereafter required to be held by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, for which
the loss, suspension, revocation or failure to obtain or renew, could
reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a
Material Adverse Effect.  This Section 2.1
shall not preclude Borrower or its Subsidiaries from contesting any taxes or
other payments, if they are being diligently contested in good faith in a
manner which stays enforcement of any Lien in respect thereof and if
appropriate expense provisions have been recorded in conformity with GAAP,
subject to Section 3.2.  Borrower
represents and warrants that it (i) is in compliance and each of its
Subsidiaries is in compliance with the requirements of all applicable laws,
rules, regulations and orders of any Governmental Authority and the
obligations, covenants and conditions contained in all Contractual Obligations
other than those laws, rules, regulations, orders and provisions of such
Contractual Obligations the noncompliance with which could not be reasonably
expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse
Effect, and (ii) maintains and each of its Subsidiaries maintains all
licenses, qualifications and permits referred to above.

 

2.2.                            Insurance;
Damage to or Destruction of Collateral.

 

(a)                                 Borrower
shall, at its sole cost and expense, maintain the policies of insurance
described on Schedule 5.18 as in effect on the date hereof or otherwise
in form and amounts and with insurers reasonably acceptable to Agent.  Such policies of insurance (or the loss
payable and additional insured endorsements delivered to Agent) shall contain
provisions pursuant to which the insurer agrees to provide 30 days prior
written notice to Agent in the event of any non-renewal, cancellation or
amendment of any such insurance policy. 
If Borrower

 

17

 

at any time or times hereafter shall fail to obtain or maintain any of
the policies of insurance required above or to pay all premiums relating
thereto, Agent may at any time or times thereafter obtain and maintain such
policies of insurance and pay such premiums and take any other action with
respect thereto that Agent deems advisable. 
Agent shall have no obligation to obtain insurance for Borrower or any
Subsidiary or pay any premiums therefor. 
By doing so, Agent shall not be deemed to have waived any Default arising
from Borrower’s failure to maintain such insurance or pay any premiums
therefor.  All sums so disbursed,
including reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs and other charges related
thereto, shall be payable on demand by Borrower to Agent and shall be
additional Obligations hereunder secured by the Collateral.

 

(b)                                 Borrower
shall deliver to Agent from time to time a report of a reputable insurance
broker, reasonably satisfactory to Agent, with respect to its insurance policies.

 

(c)                                  Borrower
shall deliver to Agent, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent,
endorsements to (i) all “All Risk” and business interruption insurance naming
Agent, on behalf of itself and Lenders, as loss payee as its interest may
appear, and (ii) all general liability and other liability policies naming
Agent, on behalf of itself and Lenders, as additional insured.  Each Credit Party irrevocably makes, constitutes
and appoints Agent (and all officers, employees or agents designated by Agent),
so long as any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, as each Credit
Party’s true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact for the purpose of making,
settling and adjusting claims under such “All Risk” policies of insurance,
endorsing the name of each Credit Party on any check or other item of payment
for the proceeds of such “All Risk” policies of insurance and for making all
determinations and decisions with respect to such “All Risk” policies of
insurance.  Agent shall have no duty to
exercise any rights or powers granted to it pursuant to the foregoing
power-of-attorney.  For the avoidance of
doubt, subject to Section 1.9(a), Borrower shall be entitled to retain
any insurance proceeds received by it so long as no Event of Default is continuing.

 

2.3.                            Inspection;
Lender Meeting.  Borrower and each of
its Subsidiaries shall permit any authorized representatives of Agent to visit,
audit and inspect any of the properties of Borrower and its Subsidiaries,
including its and their financial and accounting records, and to make copies
and take extracts therefrom, and to discuss its and their affairs, finances and
business with its and their officers and certified public accountants, at such
reasonable times during normal business hours and as often as may be reasonably
requested.  Representatives of each
Lender will be permitted to accompany representatives of Agent during each
visit, inspection and discussion referred to in the immediately preceding
sentence.  Without in any way limiting
the foregoing, Borrower and its Subsidiaries will, upon request by Agent,
participate and will cause key management personnel of Borrower and its Subsidiaries
to participate in a meeting with Agent and Lenders once during each year, which
meeting shall be held at such time and such place as may be reasonably
requested by Agent.

 

18

 

2.4.                            Organizational
Existence.  Except as otherwise
permitted by Section 3.6, Borrower will and will cause its Subsidiaries
to at all times preserve and keep in full force and effect its organizational
existence and all rights and franchises material to its business.

 

2.5.                            Environmental
Matters.  Borrower shall and shall
cause each of its Subsidiaries and each other Person within its control to
(a) conduct its operations and keep and maintain its Real Estate in
compliance with all Environmental Laws and Environmental Permits other than
noncompliance that could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect; (b) implement any and all investigation, remediation, removal and
response actions that are appropriate or necessary to maintain the value and
marketability of the Real Estate or to otherwise comply in all material
respects with Environmental Laws and Environmental Permits pertaining to the
presence, generation, treatment, storage, use, disposal, transportation or Release
of any Hazardous Material on, at, in, under, above, to, from or about any of
its Real Estate; (c) notify Agent promptly after Borrower or any Person
within its control becomes aware of any violation of Environmental Laws or
Environmental Permits or any Release on, at, in, under, above, to, from or
about any Real Estate that is reasonably likely to result in Environmental
Liabilities to Borrower or its Subsidiaries in excess of $500,000; and
(d) promptly forward to Agent a copy of any order, notice, request for
information or any communication or report received by Borrower or any Person
within its control in connection with any such violation or Release or any
other matter relating to any Environmental Laws or Environmental Permits that
could reasonably be expected to result in Environmental Liabilities in excess
of $500,000, in each case whether or not the Environmental Protection Agency or
any Governmental Authority has taken or threatened any action in connection
with any such violation, Release or other matter.  If Agent at any time has a reasonable basis
to believe that there may be a violation of any Environmental Laws or Environmental
Permits by Borrower or any Person under its control or any Environmental
Liability arising thereunder, or a Release of Hazardous Materials on, at, in,
under, above, to, from or about any of its Real Estate, that, in each case,
could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, then Borrower
and its Subsidiaries shall, upon Agent’s written request (i) cause the
performance of such environmental audits including subsurface sampling of soil
and groundwater, and preparation of such environmental reports, at Borrower’s expense,
as Agent may from time to time reasonably request, which shall be conducted by
reputable environmental consulting firms reasonably acceptable to Agent and
shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Agent, and
(ii) permit Agent or its representatives to have access to all Real Estate
for the purpose of conducting such environmental audits and testing as Agent
deems appropriate, including subsurface sampling of soil and groundwater.  Borrower shall reimburse Agent for the costs
of such audits and tests and the same will constitute a part of the Obligations
secured hereunder.

 

2.6.                            Landlords’
Agreements, Mortgagee Agreements, Bailee Letters and Real Estate Purchases.  Unless the Agent shall have waived such
requirement with respect to any property, Borrower shall use reasonable efforts
to obtain a landlord’s agreement, mortgagee agreement or bailee letter, as applicable,
from the lessor of each leased property, mortgagee of owned property or bailee
with respect to any warehouse, processor or converter facility

 

19

 

or other location where Collateral
is stored or located, which agreement or letter shall contain a waiver or
subordination of all Liens or claims that the landlord, mortgagee or bailee may
assert against the Collateral at that location, and shall otherwise be
reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to Agent.  Borrower shall and shall cause its
Subsidiaries to timely and fully pay and perform their obligations under all
leases and other agreements with respect to each leased location or public
warehouse where any Collateral is or may be located except for such obligations
being diligently contested in good faith and in respect of which, if
appropriate, expense provisions have been recorded in accordance with GAAP.

 

2.7.                            Conduct
of Business.  Borrower shall, and
shall cause its Subsidiaries to, at all times maintain, preserve and protect
all of its assets and properties used or useful in the conduct of their
respective businesses, and keep the same in good repair, working order and
condition in all material respects (taking into consideration ordinary wear and
tear) and from time to time make, or cause to be made, all necessary or
appropriate repairs, replacements and improvements thereto consistent with
industry practices; continue to conduct its business substantially as now
conducted or as otherwise permitted hereunder.

 

2.8.                            Further
Assurances.

 

(a)                                 Each
Credit Party shall, from time to time, execute or authorize the execution of
such guaranties, financing statements, documents, control agreements, security
agreements and reports as Agent or Requisite Lenders at any time may reasonably
request to evidence, perfect or otherwise implement the guaranties and security
for repayment of the Obligations contemplated by the Loan Documents.

 

(b)                                 Promptly,
and in any event within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date (unless
otherwise extended by the Agent), (i) each Credit Party will take such actions
as is required to perfect the security interest of the Agent in all vehicles
subject to certificate of title laws in California, Arizona and Minnesota and
(ii) for all other motor vehicles owned by each Credit Party as of the Closing
Date, the Credit Parties shall, subject to requirements of law and the
Intercreditor Agreement, take such action as may be reasonably requested by the
Agent to perfect the Agent’s Lien on such vehicles.  Promptly, and in any event within ten (10)
Business Days following the Closing Date (unless otherwise extended by the
Agent), the Credit Parties shall amend each existing Control Agreement in favor
of the First Lien Agent or enter into a separate Control Agreement in favor of
Agent, in each case, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, to
provide the Agent with “control” over such Deposit Accounts within the meaning
of the Code.  Promptly following the
Closing Date, each Credit Party shall use commercially reasonably efforts to
deliver such landlord waivers and bailee letters as further described in Section
2.6 that the First Lien Agent has received pursuant to the Revolving Credit
Agreement . Promptly, and in any event with 30 days after the Closing Date
(unless otherwise extended by Agent), each Credit Party shall deliver lien
search results in each of the jurisdictions set forth on Schedule 2.8(b).

 

20

 

(c)                                  Each
Credit Party shall, from time to time, cause all chattel paper (excluding
written lease agreements governing Short-Term Rentals) owned by such Credit
Party with an individual value in excess of $100,000 (provided that the
aggregate value of all chattel paper (excluding written lease agreements
governing Short Term Rentals) not so legended does not exceed $1,000,000) to be
conspicuously legended to indicate that it is subject to a Lien in favor of
Agent.

 

(d)                                 In
the event any Credit Party acquires an ownership interest in real property
after the Closing Date with a fair market value in excess of $1,000,000, such
Credit Party shall deliver to Agent a fully executed mortgage or deed of trust
over such real property in form and substance similar to the Mortgages
delivered concurrently herewith, with such variations as may be reasonably required
by Agent in order to conform to and/or take advantage of laws of the state in
which such real property is located, together with such title insurance
policies, surveys, appraisals, evidence of insurance, legal opinions,
environmental assessments and other documents and certificates as shall be
reasonably required by Agent.

 

(e)                                  Promptly,
and in any event within 30 days (unless otherwise extended by the Agent) after
the acquisition by Borrower or its Subsidiaries of assets or personal property
of the type that would have constituted Collateral on the Closing Date and investments
of the type that would have constituted Collateral on the Closing Date, Borrower
will take, or will cause its Subsidiaries to take, all necessary action,
including (i) the filing of appropriate financing statements under the
applicable provisions of the UCC, applicable foreign, domestic or local laws,
rules or regulations in each of the offices where such filing is necessary or
appropriate, (ii) the execution and delivery of Control Agreements (subject to
Section 3.13), and (iii) the notation of the Lien of Agent on any certificate
of title, in each case, to create and perfect a perfected Lien in such
Collateral (or comparable interest under foreign law in the case of foreign
Collateral) pursuant to and to the full extent required by the Security
Agreements and this Agreement (or otherwise in form sufficient to perfect the
Agent’s security interest therein as reasonably determined by Agent).

 

(f)                                   Borrower
shall (i) cause each Person, upon its becoming a Subsidiary of Borrower,
promptly to guaranty the Obligations and to grant to Agent, for the benefit of
Agent and Lenders, a security interest (subject to the thresholds and
exclusions otherwise set forth in the Loan Documents) in the real, personal and
mixed property of such Person to secure the Obligations and (ii) pledge,
or cause to be pledged, to Agent, for the benefit of Agent and Lenders, all of
the Stock of such Subsidiary to secure the Obligations.  The documentation for such guaranty, security
and pledge shall be substantially similar to the Loan Documents executed
concurrently herewith with such modifications as are reasonably requested by
Agent and shall be accompanied by such legal opinions and other documents as
Agent may reasonably request. 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a Person becomes a Subsidiary
of Borrower and such Person is a “controlled foreign corporation”, as defined
in Section 957(a) of the IRC (a “CFC”), of Borrower, then Borrower shall
(a) not be obligated to cause such CFC to comply with clause (i) of this
subsection (f) and nothing in this Agreement shall cause any CFC to have any
obligation under this Agreement, and (b) pledge or cause to

 

21

 

be pledged no more than sixty-five percent (65%) of all of the Stock of
such CFC; provided that Borrower shall not be
obligated to pledge or cause to be pledged any assets owned by any CFC (including
the Stock of such CFC owned by another CFC).

 

(g)                                  In
the event that any Credit Party takes any action (other than delivery of
Collateral to the First Lien Agent) to grant a security interest to secure the
First Lien Obligations or to perfect any security interest for the benefit of
the First Lien Obligations, then notwithstanding that Borrower would not
otherwise be required by the Loan Documents to take such action to grant or
perfect a security interest for the Obligations, Borrower shall, or shall cause
its applicable Subsidiary to, grant or perfect such security interest to secure
the Obligations subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement.

 

2.9.                            Cash
Management Systems.  Borrower shall,
and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, promptly enter into Control
Agreements with respect to each deposit account (other than Excluded Accounts) maintained
by Borrower or any Subsidiary after the Closing Date.  Each such Control Agreement shall be in form
and substance satisfactory to Agent.

REPRESENTATIONS
AND WARRANTIES

 

To induce Agent and Lenders to enter into the
Loan Documents and to make Loans, Borrower represents and warrants as follows:

 

35

 

5.1.                            Disclosure.  No representation or warranty of any Credit
Party contained in this Agreement, the Financial Statements referred to in Section
5.5, the other Related Transactions Documents or any other document,
certificate or written statement furnished to Agent or any Lender by or on
behalf of any such Person for use in connection with the Loan Documents or the
Related Transactions Documents contains as of the date made or deemed remade or
given any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted, omits or will omit to
state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained
herein or therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which the
same were made.

 

5.2.                            No
Material Adverse Effect.  Since June

rules, regulations or orders of any Governmental Authority or violate, conflict
with, result in a breach of, or constitute a default (with due notice or lapse
of time or both) under any Contractual Obligation or organizational documents

breaches or defaults could not reasonably be expected to have, either
individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.  None of the Credit Parties is an “investment

laws of its jurisdiction of organization and qualified to do business in all

qualified to do business are set forth on Schedule 5.4(a).  Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries has all
requisite organizational power and authority to own and operate its properties,
to carry on its business as now conducted and proposed to be conducted, to
enter into each Related Transactions Document to which it is a party and to
incur the Obligations, grant Liens and security interests in the Collateral and
carry out the Related Transactions.

 

(b)                                 Capitalization.  As of the Closing Date:  (i) the authorized Stock of Borrower and

warrants, conversion rights or similar agreements or understandings for the
purchase or acquisition from Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries of any Stock
of any such entity.

 

(c)                                  Binding
Obligation.  This Agreement is, and
the other Related Transactions Documents when executed and delivered will be,
the legally valid and binding obligations of the applicable parties thereto,
each enforceable against each of such parties, as applicable, in accordance
with their respective terms.

 

5.5.                            Financial
Statements and Projections.  All
Financial Statements concerning Borrower and its Subsidiaries which have been

those listed below, have been or will be prepared in accordance with GAAP
consistently applied (except as disclosed therein) and do or will present
fairly the financial condition of the entities covered thereby as at the dates
thereof and the results of their operations for the periods then ended, subject
to, in the case of unaudited Financial Statements, the absence of footnotes and
normal year-end adjustments.

for the Fiscal Year then ended, audited by KPMG LLP.

 

The
Projections delivered on or prior to the Closing Date and the updated
Projections delivered pursuant to Section 4.4(e) represent and will
represent as of the date thereof the good faith estimate of Borrower and its
senior management concerning the most probable course of its business.

registered Copyrights and pending applications for any of the foregoing owned
by a Credit Party on the Closing Date are identified on Schedule 5.6 and
fully protected and/or duly and properly registered, filed or issued in the

with, all Environmental Permits required by Environmental Laws for the

in the aggregate, and all such Environmental Permits are valid, uncontested and
in good standing; (v) neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is
involved in operations or knows of any facts, circumstances or conditions,

Documents or otherwise to control Borrower’s or its Subsidiaries’ conduct with

Title IV Plans, Multiemployer Plans, ESOPs and Welfare Plans, including all
Retiree Welfare Plans.  Except with
respect to Multiemployer Plans, each Qualified Plan has been determined by the
IRS to qualify under Section 401 of the IRC, the trusts created thereunder have
been determined to be exempt from tax under the provisions of Section 501 of
the IRC, and nothing has occurred that could reasonably be expected to cause
the loss of such qualification or tax-exempt status.  Each Plan other than a Multiemployer Plan,

in all material respects, with the applicable provisions of ERISA and the IRC,
including the timely filing of all reports required under the IRC or ERISA,
including the statement required by 29 CFR Section 2520.104-23.  Neither Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate has
failed in other than a de minimis respect, to make any contribution or pay any
amount due as required by either Section 412 of the IRC or Section 302 of ERISA
or the terms of any such Plan.  Neither
Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate has engaged in a “prohibited transaction,” as
defined in Section 406 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the IRC, in connection with
any Plan, that would subject any Credit Party to a material tax on prohibited
transactions imposed by Section 502(i) of ERISA or Section 4975 of the IRC.

 

(b)                                 Except
as set forth in Schedule 5.14: (i) no Title IV Plan has any
Unfunded Pension Liability; (ii) no ERISA Event or event described in
Section 4062(e) of ERISA with respect to any Title IV Plan has occurred or is
reasonably expected to occur; (iii) there are no pending, or to the
knowledge of Borrower, threatened claims (other than claims for benefits in the
normal course), sanctions, actions or lawsuits, asserted or instituted against
any Plan (other than a Multiemployer Plan) or any Person as fiduciary or
sponsor of any Plan; (iv) no Credit Party or ERISA Affiliate has incurred
or reasonably expects to incur any liability as a result of a complete or partial
withdrawal from a Multiemployer Plan; (v) within the last five years no
Title IV Plan of any Credit Party or ERISA Affiliate has been terminated,
whether or not in a “standard termination” as that term is used in Section
404(b)(1) of ERISA, nor has any Title IV Plan of any Credit Party or ERISA
Affiliate (determined at any time within the past five years) with Unfunded
Pension Liabilities been transferred outside of the “controlled group” (within
the meaning of Section 4001(a)(14) of ERISA) of any Credit Party or ERISA Affiliate;
(vi) except in the case of any ESOP, Stock of all Credit Parties and their
ERISA Affiliates makes up, in the aggregate, no more than 10% of fair market
value of the assets of any Plan measured on the basis of fair market value as
of the latest valuation date of any Plan; and (vii) no liability under any
Title IV Plan has been satisfied with the purchase of a contract from an
insurance company that is not rated AAA by the S&P or an equivalent rating
by another nationally recognized rating agency.

 

5.15.                     Brokers.  No broker or finder acting on behalf of any
Credit Party or Affiliate thereof brought about the obtaining, making or
closing of the Loans or the Related Transactions, and no Credit Party or
Affiliate thereof has any obligation to any Person in respect

 

41

 

of any finder’s or brokerage
fees in connection therewith, except as contemplated by Section 1.6.

 

5.16.                     Deposit Accounts.  Schedule 5.16 lists all banks and
other financial institutions at which any Credit Party maintains deposit,
securities or other accounts as of the Closing Date, and such Schedule
correctly identifies the name, address and telephone number of each depository,
the name in which the account is held, a description of the purpose of the
account, and the complete account number therefor.

 

5.17.                     Agreements
and Other Documents.  As of the
Closing Date, each of the following licenses and agreements to which any Credit
Party is a party is listed on Schedule 5.17:  supply agreements and purchase agreements not
terminable by such Credit Party within sixty (60) days following written notice
issued by such Credit Party and involving transactions in excess of $1,000,000
per annum; leases of Equipment having a remaining term of one year or longer
and requiring aggregate rental and other payments in excess of $500,000 per annum; licenses and permits held by the Credit Parties,
the absence of which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect; instruments and documents evidencing any Indebtedness or Guaranteed
Indebtedness of such Credit Party and any Lien granted by such Credit Party
with respect thereto; and instruments and agreements evidencing the issuance of
any equity securities, warrants, rights or options to purchase equity
securities of such Credit Party.

 

5.18.                     Insurance.  Schedule 5.18 lists all insurance
policies of any nature maintained, as of the Closing Date, for current
occurrences by each Credit Party, as well as a summary of the key business

exercise its rights and powers by or through their Affiliates.  Section 8.3 shall apply to any such
sub-agent and to the Affiliates of the Agent and any such sub-agent.  The Agent shall have, by reason hereof or any
of the other Loan Documents, a fiduciary relationship with, or any other
implied duties in respect of, any Lender; and nothing herein or any of the
other Loan Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so
construed as to impose

 

46

 

upon any Agent any obligations
in respect hereof or any of the other Loan Documents except as expressly set
forth herein or therein.  The Agent is
further authorized by the Lenders to enter into agreements supplemental to this
Agreement or any other Loan Documents for the purpose of curing any formal
defect, inconsistency, omission or ambiguity in this Agreement or any other
Loan Document to which it is a party (without any consent or approval by the
Lenders).

 

8.3.                            General
Immunity.

 

(a)                                 No
Responsibility for Certain Matters. 
The Agent shall not be responsible to any Lender for, or be required to
ascertain or inquire as to, (i) any statement, recital, warranty or
representation (in each case whether written or oral) made in or in connection
with any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other
document (including financial statements) delivered thereunder or in connection
therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants,
agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document, (iv)
the execution, validity, enforceability, effectiveness, genuineness,
sufficiency or collectability of any Loan Document or any other agreement,
instrument or document, (v) the use of proceeds of the Loans, (vi) the
existence or possible existence of any Default, (vii) the financial condition
or business affairs of any Credit Party or any other Person liable for the
payment of any Obligations or (viii) the satisfaction of any condition set
forth in Section 7 or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt
of items expressly required to be delivered to the Agent, or, in each such
case, to make any disclosures with respect to the foregoing.  Except as expressly set forth in the Loan
Documents, the Agent shall have no duty to disclose, nor shall it be liable for
the failure to disclose, any information relating to Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the entity serving as Agent
or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. 
Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Agent
shall not have any liability arising from confirmations of the amount of
outstanding Loans or the component amounts thereof.

 

(b)                                 Exculpatory
Provisions.  Neither Agent nor any of
its officers, partners, directors, employees or agents shall be liable to the
Lenders for any action taken or omitted by Agent under or in connection with
any of the Loan Documents except to the extent caused by Agent’s gross
negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment).  Agent shall be entitled to refrain from any
act or the taking of any action (including the failure to take an action) in connection
herewith or any of the other Loan Documents or from the exercise of any power,
discretion or authority vested in it hereunder or thereunder unless and until
such Agent shall have received instructions in respect thereof from the Requisite
Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such instructions
under Section 9.8) and, upon receipt of such instructions from the Requisite
Lenders (or such other Lenders, as the case may be), the Agent shall be
entitled to act or (where so instructed) refrain from acting, or to exercise
such power, discretion or authority, in accordance with such instructions.  Without prejudice to the generality of the
foregoing, (i) the Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully
protected in relying, upon any notice, request, certificate, consent,
communication, instrument or document believed by it to

 

47

 

be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper
Person or Persons, and shall be entitled to rely and shall be protected in
relying on opinions and judgments of attorneys (who may be attorneys for
Borrower and its Subsidiaries), accountants, experts and other professional
advisors selected by it; and (ii) no Lender shall have any right of action
whatsoever against any Agent as a result of such Agent acting or (where so
instructed) refraining from acting hereunder or any of the other Loan Documents
in accordance with the instructions of the Requisite Lenders (or such other
Lenders as may be required to give such instructions under Section 9.8).

 

(c)                                  To
the extent that First Lien Agent acts as agent for perfection for the Agent and
the Lenders as contemplated by the Intercreditor Agreement, each Lender agrees
that the First Lien Agent shall be entitled to the limitation on liability and
indemnity under Section 8 of the Revolving Credit Agreement as in effect on the
Closing Date.

 

8.4.                            Notice
of Default.  The Agent shall not be
deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default hereunder
unless the Agent has received notice from a Lender or Borrower referring to
this Agreement, describing such Default and stating that such notice is a “notice
of default”.  In the event that the Agent
receives such a notice, the Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to the
Lenders.  The Agent shall take such
action with respect to such Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Requisite
Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such direction
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement); provided that
unless and until the Agent shall have received such directions, the Agent may
(but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such
action, with respect to such Default as it shall deem advisable in the best
interests of the Lenders.

 

8.5.                            Agents
Entitled to Act as Lender.  Being an
Agent shall in no way impair or affect any of the rights and powers of, or
impose any duties or obligations upon, the Agent in its individual capacity as
a Lender hereunder.  With respect to its
participation in the Loans, the Agent shall have the same rights and powers
hereunder as any other Lender and may exercise the same as if it were not performing
the duties and functions delegated to it hereunder, and the term “Lender”
shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include the Agent, as
the case may be, in its individual capacity. 
The Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to,
own securities of, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial
advisory or other business with Borrower or any of its Affiliates as if it were
not performing the duties specified herein, and may accept fees and other
consideration from Borrower for services in connection herewith and otherwise
without having to account for the same to the Lenders.

 

8.6.                            Lenders’
Representations, Warranties and Acknowledgement.

 

(a)                                 Each
Lender represents and warrants that it has made its own independent investigation
of the financial condition and affairs of Borrower and its Subsidiaries in
connection with the Loans hereunder and that it has made and shall continue to
make its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of Borrower and its Subsidiaries.  The Agent shall have no

 

48

 

duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to
make any such investigation or any such appraisal on behalf of the Lenders or
to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect
thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making of the Loans or
at any time or times thereafter, and the Agent shall have no responsibility
with respect to the accuracy of or the completeness of any information provided
to the Lenders.

 

(b)                                 Each
Lender, by delivering its signature page hereto and funding its Loan (or taking
any Loan by assignment) shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and
consented to and approved, each Loan Document and each other document required
to be approved by any Agent or the Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders as
may be required to give such approvals), as applicable, on the date of delivery
of such signature page.

 

(c)                                  Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, each Lender also acknowledges that the lien
and security interest granted to the Agent pursuant to the Collateral Documents
and the exercise of any right or remedy by the Agent thereunder are subject to
the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement. 
In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor
Agreement and the terms of the Loan Documents, the terms of the Intercreditor
Agreement shall govern and control. 
Additionally, prior to the First Lien Loan Termination Date, any requirement
for any Credit Party to deliver any item of Collateral to the Agent may be
satisfied by the delivery of such item to the collateral agent under the First
Lien Credit Agreement to the extent provided in the Intercreditor Agreement.

 

8.7.                            Right
to Indemnity.  Each Lender, in
proportion to its Pro Rata Share, severally agrees to indemnify the Agent, to
the extent that the Agent shall not have been reimbursed by any Credit Party,
for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including reasonable
counsel fees and disbursements) or disbursements of any kind or nature
whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Agent
in exercising its powers, rights and remedies or performing its duties
hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or otherwise in its capacity as
Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents; provided no Lender shall be liable for
any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties,
actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a
final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to the
extent resulting from the Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.  If any indemnity furnished to the Agent for
any purpose shall, in the opinion of the Agent, be insufficient or become impaired,
the Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do
the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished; provided in no event shall this sentence require any Lender
to indemnify the Agent against any liability, obligation, loss, damage,
penalty, action, judgment, suit, cost, expense or disbursement in excess of
such Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof; and provided, further, this sentence shall not be deemed to require any
Lender to indemnify the Agent against any liability, obligation, loss, damage,
penalty, action, judgment, suit, cost, expense or disbursement that are found
by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to
have resulted solely from the Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

 

49

 

8.8.                            Successor
Agents.  The Agent may resign at any
time by giving thirty days’ prior written notice thereof to the Lenders and
Borrower, and the Agent may be removed at any time with or without cause by an
instrument or concurrent instruments in writing delivered to Borrower and the
Agent and signed by the Requisite Lenders. 
Upon any such notice of resignation or any such removal, the Requisite
Lenders shall have the right, upon five Business Days’ notice to Borrower, to
appoint a successor Agent.  Upon the acceptance
of any appointment as the Agent hereunder by an applicable successor, such
successor shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights,
powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Agent and the retiring
or removed Agent shall promptly (i) transfer to such successor all sums, items
of Collateral held by it under the Collateral Documents, together with all
records and other documents necessary or appropriate in connection with the
performance of the duties of the successor Agent under the Loan Documents, and
(ii) execute and deliver to such successor such amendments to financing
statements, and take such other actions, as may be necessary or appropriate in
connection with the assignment to such successor of the security interests
created under the Collateral Documents, whereupon such retiring or removed
Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder.  After any retiring or removed Agent’s
resignation or removal hereunder as the Agent, the provisions of this Section 8
shall inure to its benefit, as well as to the benefit of its sub-agents and
their respective Affiliates, as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by
it while it was the Agent, as the case may be, hereunder.

 

8.9.                            Loan
Documents.  Anything contained in any
of the Loan Documents (other than Section 9.6) to the contrary
notwithstanding, Borrower, the Agent and each Lender hereby agree that (i) no
Lender shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral
or to enforce the Security Agreement or any other Collateral Document, it being
understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder may be
exercised solely by the Agent, on behalf of the Lenders in accordance with the
terms hereof and thereof, and (ii) in the event of a foreclosure by the Agent
on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale, the Agent or any
Lender may be the purchaser of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale
and the Agent, as representative of itself and the Lenders (but not any Lender
or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities unless the Requisite
Lenders shall otherwise agree in writing) shall be entitled, for the purpose of
bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion
of the Collateral sold at any such public sale, to use and apply any of the
Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any Collateral payable
by the Agent at such sale.  By making a
Loan or taking a Loan by assignment pursuant to Section 9.4(c) each Lender
hereby (i) agrees that the Loan Documents are subject to the terms of the
Intercreditor Agreement and agrees to be bound by the terms thereof and (ii)
authorizes the Agent to take any action required to be taken by it pursuant to the
terms of the Intercreditor Agreement.

 

8.10.                     No
Liability.  Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, none of
the entities listed as Lead Arranger, Book Runner, Syndication Agent or
Documentation Agent in their respective capacities as

 

50

 

such, shall have any duties or
responsibilities or shall incur any liability, under this Agreement or any
other Loan Document.

 

8.11.                     Withholdings.  To the extent required by any applicable law,
the Agent may withhold from any interest payment to any Lender an amount
equivalent to any applicable withholding tax. 
If the forms or other documentation required by Section 1.16(d)
are not delivered to the Agent, then the Agent may withhold from any interest
payment to any Lender not providing such forms or other documentation, an
amount equivalent to the applicable withholding tax.  If the IRS or any other Governmental Authority
asserts a claim that the Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid
to or for the account of any Lender because the appropriate form was not
delivered or was not properly executed or because such Lender failed to notify
the Agent of a change in circumstance which rendered the exemption from, or
reduction of, withholding tax ineffective or for any other reason, such Lender
shall indemnify the Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly,
by the Agent as tax or otherwise, including any penalties or interest and
together with all expenses (including legal expenses, allocated internal costs
and out-of-pocket expenses) incurred.

9.2.                            Survival
of Agreement.  All covenants,
agreements, representations and warranties made by Borrower herein and in the
documents, certificates or other instruments prepared or delivered in connection
with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be
considered to have been relied upon by the Lenders and shall survive the making
by the Lenders of the Loans, regardless of any investigation made by the
Lenders or on their behalf, and shall continue in full force and effect as long
as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any Fee or any other
amount payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document is outstanding
and unpaid.  The agreements of the Credit
Parties set forth in Sections 1.14(c), 1.15, 1.16, 9.5
and 9.6 and the agreements of the Lenders set forth in Sections 1.12,
8.3(b) and 8.7 shall remain operative and in full force and
effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consummation
of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Loans, the
invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or
any other Loan Document or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Agent
or any Lender.

 

9.3.                            Binding
Effect.  This Agreement shall become
effective when it shall have been executed by each of the parties hereto and
when the Agent shall have received

 

52

 

counterparts hereof which, when
taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto.

 

9.4.                            Successors
and Assigns.

 

(a)                                 Whenever
in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference
shall, unless the context other requires, be deemed to include the permitted
successors and assigns of such party; and all covenants, promises and
agreements by or on behalf of Borrower, the other Credit Parties, the Agent or
the Lenders that are contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents
shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns.

 

(b)                                 Any
Lender may, without the consent of Borrower or any other Person, in accordance
with applicable law, at any time sell to one or more banks, financial institutions
or other entities (each, a “Participant”) participating interests in any
Loan owing to such Lender, any Commitment of such Lender or any other interest
of such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.  In the event of any such sale by a Lender of
a participating interest to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations under this
Agreement to the other parties to this Agreement shall remain unchanged, such
Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance thereof, such Lender
shall remain the holder of any such Loan for all purposes under this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents, and Borrower and the Agent shall continue to deal
solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights
and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  In no event shall any Participant under any
such participation have any right to approve any amendment or waiver of any
provision of any Loan Document, or any consent to any departure by any Credit
Party therefrom, except to the extent that such amendment, waiver or consent
would reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Loans or any fees payable
hereunder, or postpone the date of the final maturity of the Loans, in each
case to the extent subject to such participation.  Borrower agrees that if amounts outstanding
under this Agreement and the Loans are due or unpaid, or shall have been
declared or shall have become due and payable upon the occurrence of an Event
of Default, each Participant shall, to the maximum extent permitted by
applicable law, be deemed to have the right of setoff in respect of its participating
interest in amounts owing under this Agreement to the same extent as if the
amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender
under this Agreement (including pursuant to Section 9.6); provided that, in purchasing such participating interest,
such Participant shall be deemed to have agreed to share with the Lenders the
proceeds thereof as provided in Section 1.13 as fully as if it were a
Lender hereunder.  Borrower also agrees
that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 1.14(c),
1.15 and 1.16 with respect to its participation in the Loans
outstanding from time to time as if it was a Lender; provided
that, in the case of Section 1.16, such Participant shall have complied
with the requirements of such Section; and provided,  further, that no Participant shall be entitled to receive
any greater amount pursuant to any such Section than the transferor Lender
would have been entitled to receive in respect of the amount of the
participation transferred by such transferor Lender to such Participant had no
such transfer occurred.

 

53

 

(c)                                  Any
Lender (an “Assignor”) may, in
accordance with applicable law and upon written notice to the Agent, at any
time and from time to time assign to any Eligible Assignee (an “Assignee”)
all or any part of its rights and obligations under this Agreement pursuant to
an Assignment and Acceptance, executed by such Assignee and such Assignor and
delivered to the Agent for its acceptance and recording in the Register
together with a registration and processing fee of $3,500 payable to the Agent;
provided that no such assignment to an
Assignee (other than any Lender or any Affiliate of the assigning Lender or of
another Lender or any Approved Fund) shall be in an aggregate principal amount
of less $1,000,000, unless otherwise agreed by Borrower and the Agent (provided that for purposes of the processing fee and minimum
assignment amount only, any two or more Funds that concurrently invest in Loans
and are managed by the same investment advisor, or investment advisors that are
Affiliates of one another, shall be treated as a single Assignee).  Any such assignment shall be made as an assignment
of a proportionate part of all of the Assignor’s rights and obligations under
this Agreement with respect to the Loan so assigned.  Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and
recording (and if requested by the Agent, upon delivery to the Agent of an
administrative questionnaire in the form provided by the Agent), from and after
the effective date determined pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, (x)
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
with Loans as set forth therein, and (y) the Assignor 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 of an Assignor’s rights and obligations under this
Agreement, such Assignor shall cease to be a party hereto).

 

(d)                                 Any
assignment of any Loan, whether or not evidenced by a Note, shall be effective
only upon appropriate entries with respect thereto being made in the Register
(and each Note shall expressly so provide). 
Any assignment or transfer of all or part of a Loan evidenced by a Note
shall be registered on the Register only upon surrender for registration of
assignment or transfer of the Note evidencing such Loan, accompanied by a duly
executed Assignment and Acceptance; thereupon one or more new Notes in the same
aggregate principal amount shall, to the extent requested by the designated Assignee,
be issued to the designated Assignee, and the old Notes shall be returned by
the Agent to Borrower marked “canceled.”

 

(e)                                  Upon
its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an Assignor and an
Assignee the Agent shall (i) promptly accept such Assignment and Acceptance and
(ii) on the effective date determined pursuant thereto record the information
contained therein in the Register and give notice of such acceptance and
recordation to Borrower.  On or prior to
such effective date, Borrower, at its own expense, upon request, shall execute
and deliver to the Agent (in exchange for any Note of the assigning Lender) a
new Note or Notes to such Assignee or its registered assigns in an amount equal
to the share of outstanding Loans assumed or acquired by it pursuant to such
Assignment and Acceptance and, if the Assignor has retained any portion of the
outstanding Loans upon request, a new Note or Notes to the Assignor or its
registered assigns in an amount equal to such portion of outstanding Loans,

 

54

 

retained by it hereunder.  Such
new Note or Notes shall be dated the Closing Date (or, in the case of New
Loans, the date of the original making of such New Loans) and shall otherwise
be in the form of the Note or Notes replaced thereby.

 

(f)                                   For
the avoidance of doubt, the parties to this Agreement acknowledge that the
provisions of this Section 9.4 concerning assignments of Loans and Notes
relate only to absolute assignments and that such provisions do not prohibit
assignments creating security interests, including, without limitation, any
pledge or assignment by a Lender of any Loan or Note to any Federal Reserve
Bank in accordance with applicable law.

 

(g)                                  Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”)
may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”), identified as
such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Agent and Borrower,
the option to provide to Borrower all or any part of any Loan that such
Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to Borrower pursuant to
this Agreement; provided that  (i) nothing herein shall constitute a
commitment by any SPC to make any Loan and (ii) if an SPC elects not to
exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such
Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the
terms hereof.  The making of a Loan by an
SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent,
and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender.  Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPC
shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this
Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the Granting Lender).  In furtherance of the foregoing, each party
hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this
Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the
payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior
indebtedness of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other
Person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization,
arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under the laws of the United
States or any State thereof.  In
addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section
9.4, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written
consent of, Borrower and the Agent and without paying any processing fee
therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to the Granting
Lender or to any financial institutions providing liquidity and/or credit
support to or for the account of such SPC to support the funding or maintenance
of Loans and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public
information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer
or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such
SPC.

 

(h)                                 Neither
Borrower nor any other Credit Party shall assign or delegate any of its rights
or duties hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the prior written
consent of the Agent and each Lender, and any attempted assignment without such
consent shall be null and void.

9.5.                            Expenses;
Indemnity.

 

(a)                                 Whether
or not the Transactions shall be consummated, Borrower agrees to pay promptly
(i) all the actual and reasonable out-of pocket costs and expenses of the Agent
and the Lead Arranger in connection with the syndication of the Loans and the
negotiation, preparation and execution of the Loan Documents and any consents,
amendments, waivers or other modifications thereto and the transactions
contemplated thereby; (ii) all the reasonable out-of pocket costs of furnishing
all opinions by counsel for Borrower and the other Credit Parties; (iii) the
reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of counsel to the Agent and the
Lead Arranger in connection with the syndication of the Loans and negotiation,
preparation, execution and administration of the Loan Documents and any
consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications thereto and any other
documents or matters requested by Borrower; (iv) all the actual out-of pocket costs
and reasonable expenses of creating and perfecting Liens on the Collateral in favor
of the Agent, for the benefit of the itself and the Lenders, including filing
and recording fees, expenses and taxes, stamp or documentary taxes, search
fees, title insurance premiums and reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements
of counsel to the Agent and of counsel providing any opinions that the Agent or
Requisite Lenders may request in respect of the Collateral or the Liens created
pursuant to the Collateral Documents; (v) all the actual out-of pocket costs
and reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of any auditors, accountants,
consultants or appraisers; (vi) all the actual costs and reasonable expenses
(including the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of any appraisers,
consultants, advisors and agents employed or retained by the Agents and their
counsel) in connection with the custody or preservation of any of the
Collateral; and (vii) after the occurrence of an Event of Default, all costs
and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees (including allocated costs
of internal counsel) and costs of settlement, incurred by the Agent or any
Lender in enforcing any Obligations of or in collecting any payments due from
any Credit Party hereunder or under the other Loan Documents by reason of such
Event of Default (including in connection with the sale of, collection from, or
other realization upon any of the Collateral or the enforcement of the Security
Agreement) or in connection with any refinancing or restructuring of the credit
arrangements provided hereunder in the nature of a “work-out” or pursuant to
any insolvency or bankruptcy cases or proceedings.

 

(b)                                 Borrower
agrees, whether or not the Transactions shall have been consummated, to
indemnify the Agent, the Lead Arranger, each Lender and each Related Party of
any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”)
against, and to hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims,
damages, liabilities and related costs and expenses, including reasonable
counsel fees, disbursements and other charges, incurred by or asserted against
any Indemnitee arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result of
(i) the marketing and syndication of the Loans and execution or delivery
of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument
contemplated thereby, the performance by the parties thereto of their
respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions and
the other transactions contemplated thereby, (ii) the use of the proceeds
of the Loans, (iii) any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding
relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not any Indemnitee is a party
thereto, or (iv) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous
Materials on any property owned or operated by Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liabilities related in any

 

56

 

way to Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries; provided
that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent
that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related costs and expenses
are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable
judgment to have resulted solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct
of such Indemnitee (and, upon any such determination, any indemnification
payments with respect to such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related
costs and expenses previously received by such Indemnitee shall be subject to
reimbursement by such Indemnitee).  To
the extent that the undertakings to defend, indemnify, pay and hold harmless
set forth in this Section 9.5(b) may be unenforceable in whole or in
part because they are violative of any law or public policy, Borrower shall
contribute the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under
applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all indemnified liabilities
incurred by Indemnitees or any of them.

 

(c)                                  To
the extent that Borrower fails for any reason to pay any amount required to be
paid by them or any other Credit Party to the Agent or the Lead Arranger under
paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 9.5, each Lender severally agrees
to pay to the Agent or the Lead Arranger, as the case may be, such Lender’s Pro
Rata Share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense
or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided
that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or
related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the
Agent or the Lead Arranger in its capacity as such.

 

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

 

9.6.                            Adjustments;
Setoff.  Notwithstanding Section
8.9(b), if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each
Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, except to the
extent prohibited 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 such Lender to or for the credit or the
account of Borrower against any of and all the obligations of Borrower now or
hereafter existing under this Agreement and other Loan Documents held by such
Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand
under this Agreement or such other Loan Document and although such obligations
may be unmatured.  The rights of each
Lender under this Section 9.6 are in addition to other rights and
remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.

 

9.7.                            Governing
Law.  THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER
LOAN DOCUMENTS (OTHER THAN AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS)
SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF
NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CONFLICT

 

57

 

OF LAW RULES THEREOF (OTHER
THAN SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW).

 

9.8.                            Waivers;
Amendment.

 

(a)                                 No
failure or delay on the part of the Agent or any Lender in exercising any power
or right hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver
thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power,
or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power,
preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other
right or power.  The rights and remedies
of the Agent and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are
cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would
otherwise have.  No waiver of any provision
of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any departure by
Borrower or any other Credit Party therefrom shall in any event be effective
unless the same shall be permitted by Section 9.8(b), and then such
waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the
purpose for which given.  No notice or
demand on Borrower in any case shall entitle Borrower to any other or further
notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

 

(b)                                 Neither
this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified
except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by
Borrower and the Requisite Lenders. 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such agreement
shall (i) forgive or reduce the principal amount or extend the final
scheduled date of maturity of any Loan, extend the scheduled date of any
payment of in principal in respect of any Loan, reduce the stated rate of any
repayment premium, interest or fee payable hereunder or forgive the payment of
any repayment premium, interest or fee payable hereunder or extend the
scheduled date of any payment thereof or amend or modify Section 1.12 or
amend or modify Section 6.4, in each case without the consent of each
Lender directly affected thereby (such consent being in lieu of the consent of
the Requisite Lenders required pursuant to the first sentence of this Section
9.8(b)), (ii) increase or extend the Commitment of any Lender or
require any Lender to make available Interest Periods with a duration longer
than six months without the prior written consent of each Lender affected
thereby (such consent being in lieu of the consent of the Requisite Lenders
required pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 9.8(b)), (iii)
amend the provisions of Section 9.4(h), the provisions of this Section
9.8 or the definition of the term “Pro Rata Share” or “Requisite Lenders,”
or release all or substantially all of the Guarantors from their obligations
under the Subsidiary Guaranty, in each case without the prior written consent
of each Lender (provided that, with respect to any
additional extensions of credit pursuant hereto as are approved by the Requisite
Lenders, the consent of the Requisite Lenders only shall be required to include
the Lenders advancing such additional funds in the determination of “Requisite
Lenders” or “Pro Rata Share” on substantially the same basis as the Loans are
included on the Closing Date), (iv) release all or substantially all of the
Collateral (except to the extent such release is contemplated under this
Agreement) without the prior written consent of each Lender; or (v) modify the
protections afforded to an SPC pursuant to the provisions of Section 9.4(g)
without the written consent of such SPC (such consent

 

58

 

being in addition to the consent of the Requisite Lenders required
pursuant to first sentence of this Section 9.8(b)); provided,
further, that no such agreement shall
amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Agent hereunder
or under any other Loan Document without the prior written consent of the
Agent.  To the extent the Agent is
entitled or required to make any determinations (whether a consent, waiver or
otherwise) under the Intercreditor Agreement, the Agent shall make such
determinations upon the advice of the Requisite Lenders.

 

(c)                                  The
Agent may, but shall have no obligation to, with the concurrence of any Lender,
execute amendments, modifications, waivers or consents on behalf of such
Lender.  Any waiver or consent shall be
effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which
it was given.  No notice to or demand on
any Credit Party in any case shall entitle any Credit Party to any other or
further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.  Any amendment, modification, termination,
waiver or consent effected in accordance with this Section 9.8 shall be
binding upon each Lender at the time outstanding, each future Lender and, if
signed by a Credit Party, on such Credit Party.

 

9.9.                            Interest
Rate Limitation.  Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to
any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated
as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively the “Loan Charges”), shall exceed
the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted
for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan or
participation in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable
in respect of such Loan or participation hereunder, together with all Charges
payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the
extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect
of such Loan or participation but were not payable as a result of the operation
of this Section 9.9 shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges
payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or participations or periods
shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such
cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective
Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.

 

9.10.                     Entire
Agreement.  This Agreement and the
other Loan Documents constitute the entire contract between the parties relative
to the subject matter hereof.  Any other
previous agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof
is superseded by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  Nothing in this Agreement or in the other
Loan Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any Person
(other than the parties hereto and thereto, their respective successors and
assigns permitted hereunder and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby,
the Related Parties of the Agent, the Lead Arranger and the Lenders) any
rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

 

9.11.                     WAIVER OF
JURY TRIAL.  EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY
WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY

 

59

 

RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY
JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER
OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.  EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO
REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY
OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK
TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER
PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER
LOAN DOCUMENTS, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND
CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 9.11.

 

9.12.                     Severability.  In the event any one or more of the
provisions contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document should be
held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality
and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and therein
shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby (it being understood that
the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not
in and of itself affect the validity of such provision in any other jurisdiction).  The parties shall endeavor in good-faith
negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with
valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to
that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

 

9.13.                     Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in
counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each
of which shall constitute an original but all of which when taken together
shall constitute a single contract, and shall become effective as provided in Section 9.3.  Delivery of an executed signature page to
this Agreement shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed
counterpart of this Agreement.  A set of
the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with Borrower
and the Agent.

 

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

 

9.15.                     Jurisdiction;
Consent to Service of Process.

 

(a)                                 Borrower
hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to
the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or Federal court
of the United States of America sitting in New York City, and any
appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or
relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or for recognition or
enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably
and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or
proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the
extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. 
Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment

 

60

 

in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be
enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner
provided by law.  Nothing in this
Agreement shall affect any right that the Agent, the Lead Arranger or any
Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents against Borrower or its properties in the
courts of any jurisdiction.

 

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

 

(c)                                  Each
party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the
manner provided for notices in Section 9.1.  Nothing in this Agreement will affect the
right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner
permitted by law.

 

9.16.                     Confidentiality.  Each of the Agent and the Lenders agrees to
maintain the confidentiality of the Information, except that Information may be
disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ officers, directors, employees,
trustees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors
(it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be
informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep
such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any
regulatory authority or quasi-regulatory authority (such as the National
Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by
applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d)
in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under the other
Loan Documents or any suit, action or proceeding relating to the enforcement of
its rights hereunder or thereunder, (e) subject to an agreement containing
provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 9.16, to
(i) any actual or prospective assignee of or participant in any of its
rights or obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents,
(ii) any pledge referred to in Section 9.4(f) or (iii) any actual
or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative
transaction relating to Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their
respective obligations, (f) with the consent of Borrower, (g) to any
rating agency when required by it, provided that, prior to any disclosure, such
rating agency shall undertake in writing to preserve the confidentiality of any
confidential information relating to the Credit Parties received by it from any
of the Lead Arranger, Agent or Lenders or (h) to the extent such
Information becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of
this Section 9.16.  For the
purposes of this Section, “Information” shall mean all information
received from Borrower and related to Borrower or its business, other than any
such information that was available to the Agent, the Lead Arranger or any
Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to its disclosure by Borrower.  Any Person required to maintain the
confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 9.16
shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person
has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such
Information as such Person would accord its own confidential information.

 

61

 

9.17.                     Acknowledgments.  Borrower hereby acknowledges that:

 

(a)                                 it
has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents;

 

(b)                                 neither
the Lead Arranger, the Agent or any Lender has any fiduciary relationship with
or duty to Borrower or any other Credit Party arising out of or in connection
with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and the relationship
between the Lead Arranger, the Agent and the Lenders, on one hand, and Borrower
and the other Credit Parties, on the other hand, in connection herewith or
therewith is solely that of debtor and creditor; and

 

(c)                                  no
joint venture is created hereby or by the other Loan Documents or otherwise
exists by virtue of the transactions contemplated hereby among the Lead Arranger,
the Agent and the Lenders or among Borrower, the other Credit Parties and the
Lenders.  The amounts payable at any time
hereunder to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt, and each
Lender shall be entitled to protect and enforce its rights arising out hereof
and it shall not be necessary for any other Lender to be joined as an
additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

 

9.18.                     Accounting
Changes.  In the event that any Accounting
Change shall occur and such change results in a change in the method of
calculation of the Leverage Ratio or the Interest Coverage Ratio and all
standards or terms in this Agreement, then the parties hereto agree, upon
request by Borrower or the Requisite Lenders, to enter into negotiations in
order to amend such provisions of this Agreement so as to equitably reflect
such Accounting Changes with the desired result that the criteria for
evaluating Borrower’s and the other Credit Parties’ financial condition
(including the requirements and restrictions associated with the provisions of
this Agreement applicable thereto) shall be the same after such Accounting
Changes as if such Accounting Changes had not been made.  Following any such request by Borrower or the
Requisite Lenders and until such time as such an amendment shall have been
executed and delivered by Borrower, the Agent and the Requisite Lenders, the
Leverage Ratio, the Interest Coverage Ratio and all standards and terms in this
Agreement shall continue to be calculated or construed as if such Accounting
Changes had not occurred.

 

9.19.                     Construction.  Each covenant contained herein shall be
construed (absent express provision to the contrary) as being independent of
each other covenant contained herein, so that compliance with any one covenant
shall not (absent such an express contrary provision) be deemed to excuse
compliance with any other covenant. 
Where any provision herein refers to action to be taken by any Person,
or which such Person is prohibited from taking, such provision shall be
applicable whether such action is taken directly or indirectly by such Person.

 

9.20.                     Patriot
Act.  Each Lender and the Agent (for
itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies Borrower that pursuant
to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is

 

62

 

required to obtain, verify and
record information that identifies Borrower and the other Credit Parties, which
information includes the name and address of Borrower and other information
that will allow such Lender or the Agent, as applicable, to identify Borrower
in accordance with the Patriot Act.

 

9.21.                     Delivery
of Termination Statements and Mortgage Releases.

 

(a)                                 Upon
payment in full in cash and performance of all of the Obligations (other than
indemnification Obligations), termination of the Commitments and a release of
all claims against Agent and Lenders, and so long as no suits, actions proceedings,
or claims are pending or threatened against any Indemnitee asserting any
damages, losses or liabilities that are indemnified liabilities hereunder,
Agent shall deliver to Borrower termination statements, mortgage releases and
other documents necessary or appropriate to evidence the termination of the
Liens securing payment of the Obligations.

 

(b)                                 Upon
the disposition of any Collateral in accordance with the terms and conditions
provided herein, Agent shall deliver to Borrower termination statements,
mortgage releases and other evidence necessary or appropriate to evidence the
termination of Liens on such Collateral.

 

(c)                                  In
the event that any Credit Party acquires any Equipment and in connection
therewith grants a security interest in such Equipment to any Person providing
purchase money financing to such Credit Party for such Equipment and such security
interest and financing does not contravene any provision of this Agreement and
prohibits the Lien of Agent therein, Agent, at the request of such Credit Party
shall release its security interest in such Equipment or shall subordinate such
Lien (as required by such Person) and shall at the cost and expense of such
Credit Party execute such documents as may be necessary to release such Lien of
record; provided,  however,
that upon any such prohibition ceasing to be binding on such Credit Party, the
Lien of Agent in such Equipment shall automatically be reinstated and such
Credit Party shall immediately notify Agent and shall take all steps as may be
necessary to perfect such Lien of Agent within 20 Business Days following such
prohibition ceasing to be effective.

 

9.22.                     Subordination
of Intercompany Debt.

 

(a)                                 Each
Credit Party hereby agrees that any intercompany Indebtedness or other
intercompany payables or receivables, or intercompany advances directly or indirectly
made by or owed to such Credit Party by any other Credit Party (collectively, “Intercompany
Debt”), of whatever nature at any time outstanding shall be subordinate and
subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full in cash of the
Obligations.  Each Credit Party hereby
agrees that it will not, while any Event of Default is continuing, accept any
payment, including by offset, on any Intercompany Debt until the Maturity Date,
in each case, except with the prior written consent of Agent.

 

63

 

(b)                                 In
the event that any payment on any Intercompany Debt shall be received by a
Credit Party other than as permitted by this Section 9.22 before the
Maturity Date, such Credit Party shall receive such payments and hold the same
in trust for, segregate the same from its own assets and shall immediately pay
over to, the Agent for the benefit of the Agent and Lenders all such sums to
the extent necessary so that Agent and the Lenders shall have been paid in full,
in cash, all Obligations owed or which may become owing.

 

(c)                                  Upon
any payment or distribution of any assets of any Credit Party of any kind or
character, whether in cash, property or securities by set-off, recoupment or
otherwise, to creditors in any liquidation or other winding-up of such Credit
Party or in the event of any Proceeding, Agent and Lenders shall first be
entitled to receive payment in full in cash, in accordance with the terms of
the Obligations and of this Agreement, of all amounts payable under or in
respect of such Obligations, before any payment or distribution is made on, or
in respect of, any Intercompany Debt, in any such Proceeding, any distribution
or payment, to which Agent or any Lender would be entitled except for the
provisions hereof shall be paid by such Credit Party, or by any receiver,
trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or other person making such
payment or distribution directly to Agent (for the benefit of Agent and the
Lenders) to the extent necessary to pay all such Obligations in full in cash,
after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to Agent and
Lenders (or to Agent for the benefit of Agent and Lenders).

Lien Loan Obligations.  To the extent
that the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.1 are not complied with
for any reason, without limiting any other rights and remedies available to the
First Lien Agent and/or First Lien Lenders, Second Lien Agent on behalf of
itself and the Second Lien Lenders, agrees that any amounts received by or
distributed to any of them pursuant to or as a result of Liens granted to any
of them in contravention of this Section 2.1 shall be subject to Section 3.4.

 

2.2          Similar Liens and Agreements.  The parties hereto agree that it is their
intention that the Collateral securing the First Lien Loan Obligations and the
Collateral securing the Second Lien Loan Obligations be identical.  In furtherance of the foregoing, the parties
hereto agree, subject to the other provisions of this Agreement:

 

 

(a)  upon request by the First Lien Agent or
the Second Lien Agent, to cooperate in good faith (and to direct their counsel
to cooperate in good faith) from time to time in order to determine the
specific items included in the Collateral securing the First Lien Loan
Obligations or Collateral securing the Second Lien Loan Obligations and the
steps taken to perfect their respective Liens thereon and the identity of the
respective parties obligated under the First Lien Loan Credit Documents and the
Second Lien Loan Documents; and

 

(b)  that the documents and agreements creating or
evidencing the Collateral securing the First Lien Loan Obligations and the
Collateral securing the Second Lien Loan Obligations shall be in all material
respects the same forms of documents other than with respect to the respective
priorities thereof and the nature of the Obligations thereunder, it being
understood that the First Lien Agent shall have exclusive control over all
lockbox accounts, deposit accounts and securities entitlements until the First
Lien Loan Obligations have been Paid in Full.

 

Section 3.              Security
Interests; Priorities.

 

3.1          Priorities.  Each Secured
Creditor hereby acknowledges that other Secured Creditors have been granted
Liens upon the Collateral to secure their respective Obligations.  The Liens of the First Lien Agent on the
Collateral, to the extent that such Liens secure the First Lien Loan
Obligations, have and shall be senior and prior in right to the Liens of the
Second Lien Creditors on the Collateral, and such Liens of the Second Lien
Creditors on the Collateral are and shall be junior and subordinate to the
Liens of the First Lien Agent, to the extent that such Liens secure the First
Lien Loan Obligations.  The priorities of
the Liens provided in this Section 3.1 shall not be altered or
otherwise affected by any amendment, modification, supplement, extension,
renewal, restatement, replacement or refinancing of any of the Obligations, nor
by any action or inaction which any of the Secured Creditors may take or fail
to take in respect of the Collateral.

 

3.2          No Alteration of Priority. 
The priorities set forth in this Agreement are applicable irrespective
of the order or time of attachment, or the order, time or manner of perfection,
or the order or time of filing or recordation of any document or instrument, or
other method of perfecting a Lien in favor of each Secured Creditor in any
Collateral, and notwithstanding any conflicting terms or conditions which may
be contained in any of the Documents. 
Each First Lien Creditor agrees not to enter in any agreement with another
creditor of any Borrower or any Obligor to subordinate the Lien of First Lien
Creditors in any Collateral under the First Lien Loan Documents to the Lien of
such other creditor in the Collateral, or to subordinate the right of the First
Lien Creditors to the payment of the First Lien Loan Obligations to the payment
of the indebtedness or claim of any other creditor of any Borrower or any
Obligor, in each case without the prior written consent of Second Lien
Creditors other than in connection with bailee, landlord, control, consignment
and similar third parties letters that do not involve subordination to liens
securing indebtedness for borrowed money.

 

3.3          Perfection.  Subject to Section 4.4,
each Secured Creditor shall be solely responsible for perfecting and
maintaining the perfection of its Lien in and to each item constituting the
Collateral in which such Secured Creditor has been granted a Lien.  The foregoing provisions of this Agreement
are intended solely to govern the respective Lien priorities as among the
Secured Creditors and shall not impose on any Secured Creditor any obligations
in respect of the disposition of proceeds of any Collateral that would conflict
with prior perfected claims therein in favor of any other Person or any order
or decree of any court or governmental authority or any applicable law.  Whether or not an Insolvency Proceeding is
continuing, each Secured Creditor agrees not to initiate, prosecute or
participate in any claim, action or other proceeding challenging the enforceability,
validity, perfection or priority of any or all of the First Lien Loan
Obligations or Second Lien Loan Obligations or any Liens securing the First
Lien Loan Obligations or Second Lien Loan Obligations.

 

 

3.4          Proceeds of Collateral. 
Subject to Section 3.1, all proceeds of the Collateral
received by any Second Lien Creditor in connection with or pursuant to an
Enforcement Action shall be forthwith paid over, in the funds and currency
received, to the First Lien Agent for application to the First Lien Loan
Obligations (except as otherwise required by law or court order).  Subject to Section 3.1,all
proceeds of the Collateral received by any First Lien Creditor after the First
Lien Loan Termination Date shall be forthwith paid over, in the funds and
currency received, to the Second Lien Creditors for application to the Second
Lien Loan Obligations.

 

3.5          Release of Collateral Upon Permitted Collateral Sale. 
The Second Lien Creditors shall at any time in connection with any
Permitted Collateral Sale:  (i) upon
the request of the First Lien Agent with respect to the Collateral subject to
such Permitted Collateral Sale, release or otherwise terminate its Liens on
such Collateral; (ii) deliver such terminations of financing statements,
partial lien releases, mortgage satisfactions and discharges, endorsements,
assignments or other instruments of transfer, termination or release
(collectively, “Release Documents”) and take such further actions as the
First Lien Agent shall reasonably require in order to release and/or terminate
such Second Lien Creditor’s Liens on the Collateral subject to such Permitted
Collateral Sale; provided that if the closing of the sale or disposition
of the Collateral is not consummated, the First Lien Agent shall promptly
return all Release Documents to such Second Lien Creditor; and (iii) be
deemed to have consented under the Second Lien Loan Documents to such sale or
other disposition free and clear of such Second Lien Creditor’s security
interest, it being understood that such Second Lien Creditor still, but subject
to this Agreement, has rights with respect to the proceeds of such Collateral
(and waived any provision of the Second Lien Loan Documents to the extent such
transaction would be otherwise prohibited under such provision).

 

3.6          Release of Collateral Upon Release Event. 
Each Second Lien Creditor shall, at any time in connection with a
Release Event with respect to any Collateral: 
(i) upon the request of the First Lien Agent with respect to the
Collateral subject to such Release Event (which request will specify the
proposed terms of the sale and the type and amount of consideration expected to
be received in connection therewith), release or otherwise terminate its Liens
on such Collateral, to the extent such Collateral is to be sold or otherwise
disposed of either by (A) the First Lien Agent or its agents or
representatives, or (B) any Obligor with the consent of the First Lien
Creditors; (ii) be deemed to have consented under the Second Lien Loan
Documents to such sale or other disposition free and clear of such Second Lien
Creditor’s security interest, it being understood that such Second Lien
Creditor still, but subject to this Agreement, has rights with respect to the
proceeds of such Collateral (and waived the provisions of the Second Lien Loan
Documents to the extent necessary to permit such transaction); and (iii) deliver
such Release Documents and take such further actions as First Lien Agent may
reasonably require in connection therewith; provided that, (A) such
release by the Second Lien Creditors shall not extend to or otherwise affect
any of the rights of the Second Lien Creditors to the proceeds from any such
sale or other disposition of Collateral, (B) the First Lien Creditors
shall promptly apply such proceeds to permanently repay the First Lien Loan
Obligations until the same have been Paid in Full, (C) after such
application, the First Lien Agent shall, subject to Section 3.1,  promptly deliver any excess proceeds from
such sale or disposition of such Collateral to the Second Lien Agent for
application to the Second Lien Loan Obligations or as otherwise required under
applicable law or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct and (D) no
such release and/or authorization documents shall be delivered (1) to any
Obligor or (2) less than two or more than 10 Business Days prior to the
date of the closing of the sale or disposition of such Collateral, provided
further that if the closing of the sale or disposition of the Collateral
subject to such Release Event is not consummated, the First Lien Agent shall
promptly return all Release Documents to such Second Lien Creditor.

 

3.7          Power of Attorney.  The Second
Lien Agent, on behalf of each Second Lien Creditor, hereby irrevocably
constitutes and appoints the First Lien Agent and any officer of First Lien
Agent, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact
with full irrevocable power and authority

 

 

in the place and stead of the Second Lien
Agent and in the name of the Second Lien Agent or in the First Lien Agent’s own
name, from time to time in the First Lien Agent’s discretion, for the purpose
of carrying out the terms of Sections 3.5 and 3.6 hereof, to take any and all
appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which
may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of such Section,
including any Release Documents, and, in addition, to take any and all other
appropriate and commercially reasonable action for the purpose of carrying out
the terms of such Sections.  Each Second
Lien Creditor hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or
cause to be done pursuant to the power of attorney granted in this Section 3.7.  No Person to whom this power of attorney is
presented, as authority for First Lien Agent to take any action or actions
contemplated hereby, shall be required to inquire into or seek confirmation
from any Second Lien Creditor as to the authority of First Lien Agent to take
any action described herein, or as to the existence of or fulfillment of any
condition to this power of attorney, which is intended to grant to First Lien
Agent unconditionally the authority to take and perform the actions
contemplated herein.  Each Second Lien
Creditor irrevocably waives any right to commence any suit or action, in law or
equity, against any Person which acts in reliance upon or acknowledges the
authority granted under this power of attorney.

 

3.8          Waiver.  Each Secured
Creditor waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or
accrual of any of the Obligations under the First Lien Loan Documents or the
Second Lien Loan Documents and notice of or proof of reliance by the First Lien
Creditors or the Second Lien Creditors upon this Agreement and protest, demand
for payment or notice except to the extent otherwise specified herein.  Each Secured Creditor acknowledges and agrees
that the other Secured Creditors have relied upon the lien priority and other
provisions hereof in entering into the Documents and in making funds available
to the Borrowers thereunder.

 

3.9          Notice of Interest In Collateral. 
This Agreement is intended, in part, to constitute an authenticated
notification of a claim by each Secured Creditor to the other Secured Creditors
of an interest in the Collateral in accordance with the provisions of Sections 9-611
and 9-621 of the Uniform Commercial Code.

 

Section 4.              Enforcement
of Security.

 

4.1          Management of Collateral. 
Subject to the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, the First
Lien Creditors shall have the exclusive right to manage, perform and enforce
the terms of the Documents with respect to the Collateral, to exercise and
enforce all privileges and rights thereunder according to their discretion and
the exercise of their sole business judgment, including the exclusive right to
take or retake control or possession of the Collateral and to hold, prepare for
sale, process, sell, lease, dispose of, or liquidate the Collateral and to
incur expenses in connection with such sale or disposition and to exercise all
the rights and remedies of a secured lender under the Uniform Commercial Code
of any applicable jurisdiction.  In
conducting any public or private sale under the Uniform Commercial Code, the
First Lien Agent shall give the Second Lien Agent such notice of such sale as
may be required by the applicable Uniform Commercial Code; provided, however,
that 10 days’ notice shall be deemed to be commercially reasonable notice.  Except as specifically provided in this Section 4.1
below, notwithstanding any rights or remedies available to an Second Lien Creditor
under any of the Second Lien Loan Documents, applicable law or otherwise, no
Second Lien Creditor shall, directly or indirectly, take any Enforcement
Action; provided, further, that subject at all times to the
provisions of Section 3, upon the expiration of the Standstill
Period, the Second Lien Creditors may take any Enforcement Action with respect
to any Collateral, but only so long as the First Lien Creditors are not
pursuing diligently in good faith an Enforcement Action with respect to such Collateral,
or diligently attempting in good faith to vacate any stay prohibiting an
Enforcement Action with respect to such Collateral; provided, further,
that notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 4.1
shall prohibit or limit the right of the Second Lien Creditors, or any one or
more of them, from accelerating the Second Lien Loan Obligations

 

 

in accordance with the Second Lien Loan
Documents.  Subject at all times to the
provisions of Section 3 and to the preceding sentence, if any
Second Lien Creditor commences any Enforcement Action to enforce its Lien on
all or any material portion of the Collateral in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement, and is diligently pursuing in good faith such Enforcement
Action, the First Lien Creditors shall not take any Enforcement Action of a
similar nature with respect to such Collateral. 
Until the First Lien Loan Termination Date, subject to the rights of the
Obligors, the First Lien Agent shall have (i) the exclusive right to
adjust settlement of any insurance policy covering the Collateral and to
approve any award in any condemnation or similar proceeding affecting the
Collateral, (ii) the right to receive all proceeds of such policies and
awards, and (iii) the right to endorse the name of the Second Lien Agent
on any checks or other items of payment evidencing such proceeds.

 

4.2          Notices of Default.  Each Secured
Creditor shall give to the other Secured Creditors (or the agent therefor)
concurrently with the giving thereof to any Obligor (i) a copy of any
written notice by such Secured Creditor of an Event of Default under any of its
Documents or a written notice of demand for payment from any Obligor, and (ii) a
copy of any written notice sent by such Secured Creditor to any Obligor stating
such Secured Creditor’s intention to exercise any material enforcement rights
or remedies against such Obligor, including written notice pertaining to any
foreclosure on all or any material part of the Collateral or other judicial or
non-judicial remedy in respect thereof, and any legal process served or filed
in connection therewith; provided that the failure of any Secured
Creditor to give such required notice shall not result in any liability to such
Secured Creditor or affect the enforceability of any provision of this
Agreement, including the relative priorities of the Liens of the Secured
Creditors as provided herein, and shall not affect the validity or
effectiveness of any such notice as against any Obligor.  Each of First Lien Agent and Second Lien
Creditors will provide such information as it may have to the other as the
other may from time to time reasonably request concerning the status of the
exercise of any Enforcement Action and First Lien Agent and Second Lien
Creditors shall be available on a reasonable basis during normal business hours
to review with each other alternatives available in exercising such rights,
including, but not limited to, advising each other of any offers which may be
made from time to time by prospective purchasers of the Collateral, provided,
that, the failure of any party to do any of the foregoing shall not affect the
relative priorities of First Lien Agent’s or Second Lien Creditor’s respective
Liens as provided herein or the validity or effectiveness of any notices or
demands as against any Borrower or any Obligor. 
Each Borrower and Obligor hereby consents and agrees to each Secured
Creditor providing any such information to the other Secured Creditors and to
such actions by the Secured Creditors and waive any rights or claims against
any Secured Creditors arising as a result of such information or actions.

 

4.3          Permitted Actions.  Section 4.1
shall not be construed to limit or impair in any way the right of:  (i) any Secured Creditor to bid for or
purchase Collateral at any private or judicial foreclosure upon such Collateral
initiated by any Secured Creditor, (ii) any Secured Creditor to join (but
not control) any foreclosure or other judicial lien enforcement proceeding with
respect to the Collateral initiated by another Secured Creditor for the sole
purpose of protecting such Secured Creditor’s Lien on the Collateral, so long
as it does not delay or interfere with the exercise by such other Secured
Creditor of its rights under this Agreement, the Documents and under applicable
law, (iii) the Second Lien Creditors to receive any remaining proceedings
of Collateral after the First Lien Loan Obligations have been Paid in Full and (iv) any
Second Lien Creditor from (w) taking any action (not adverse to the prior Liens
on the Collateral securing the First Lien Loan Obligations) or the rights of
any First Lien Creditor to exercise remedies in respect of such Liens in order
to preserve or protect its Lien on Collateral, (x) filing any necessary
responsive or defensive pleading in opposition to any motion, claim, adversary
proceeding or other pleading made by any person objecting to or otherwise
seeking the disallowance of the claims of the Second Lien Creditors, including,
without limitation, any such claims secured by the Collateral, (y) filing any
pleadings, objections, motions or agreements which assert rights or interests
available to unsecured creditors of the Obligors arising under with the
Bankruptcy Code or other applicable law, in each case, in

 

 

accordance with the terms of this Agreement
or (z) filing any proof of claim and other filings and making arguments and
motions that are, in each case, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

 

4.4          Collateral
In Possession.

 

(a)           In the event that the First Lien Agent (i) takes
possession of or has “control” (as such term is used in the Uniform Commercial
Code as in effect in each applicable jurisdiction) over any Collateral for
purposes of perfecting its Lien therein or (ii) is named as the sole lien
holder on any certificate of title for any vehicle owned by any Obligor, the
First Lien Agent shall be deemed to be holding such Collateral or named as such
lien holder, as agent for the Secured Creditors, including the Second Lien
Creditors, solely for purposes of perfection of its Lien under the Uniform
Commercial Code or comparable applicable law; provided that, absent
gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the First Lien Agent, the
First Lien Agent shall not have any duty or liability of any kind whatsoever in
connection with such possession or control or being named as such lienholder,
including, without limitation, to protect or preserve any rights pertaining to
any of the Collateral for the Second Lien Creditors and each Second Lien
Creditor hereby acknowledges that in its capacity as such agent, in its
capacity as a secured party under the security interest granted below in this
paragraph (a), and in its capacity as lienholder for the Second Lien Lenders on
any such certificate of title, the First Lien Agent is entitled to
indemnification by the Second Lien Lenders under the terms of the GE Credit
Agreement as in effect on the date hereof to the same extent as the “Agent” (as
such term is defined therein as of the date hereof) and each Second Lien Creditor
hereby waives and releases the First Lien Agent from all claims and liabilities
arising pursuant to its role as such representative, except for claims and
liabilities arising from gross negligence or willful misconduct as finally
determined pursuant to a final order of a court of competent jurisdiction.  In order to secure the prompt payment and
performance of the Second Lien Loan Obligations, each Obligor hereby grants to
the First Lien Agent, as agent for the Second Lien Agent, a security interest
in all right, title and interest of such Obligor in, to and under all vehicles
for which a certificate or title has been or at any time may be issued, now
owned or hereafter acquired by such Obligor. 
The Second Lien Agent irrevocably agrees to perform all duties and
discharge all obligations of the First Lien Agent in the First Lien Agent’s
capacity as such secured party (other than furnishing such titles and signing
any documents pertaining to any such certificates of title that can be signed
only by the First Lien Agent) and each Obligor acknowledges that all such
duties and obligations shall be performed by the Second Lien Agent and to the
extent permitted by applicable law that such Obligor will not seek performance
of any such duties and obligations from the First Lien Agent.  All costs and expenses incurred by the First
Lien Agent in its capacity as such secured party shall be paid on demand by the
Obligors, jointly and severally, and failing such payment by the Second Lien Lenders
(and upon request in connection with any such costs and expenses, Second Lien
Agent shall provide to the First Lien Agent names and contact information for
all Second Lien Lenders).  Such grant
creates a security interest wholly separate from the security interest in such
titled vehicles granted to the First Lien Agent in the First Lien Loan
Documents as security for the First Lien Loan Obligations.  Upon the First Lien Loan Termination Date, at
the cost and expense of the Obligors, all certificates of title naming First
Lien Agent shall be re-submitted in order to remove the First Lien Agent and
(if any Second Lien Loan Obligations are then outstanding) to name solely the
Second Lien Agent thereon (it being understood that the First Lien Agent shall
continue to hold the security interest granted pursuant to this Section 4.4(a) until
such titles are so amended). Subject to Section 3.1, promptly
following the First Lien Loan Termination Date, the First Lien Agent shall,
upon the request of the Second Lien Agent, (i) deliver the remainder of
the Collateral, if any, in its possession to the designee of the Second Lien
Agent or as otherwise required under applicable law or as a court of competent
jurisdiction may direct, in any case without representation or warranty of any
kind and without recourse and (ii) shall deliver any notices contemplated
by any deposit account control agreement, delivery of which transfers exclusive
control rights to the Second Lien Agent. 
The First Lien Agent makes no representation or warranty that any Lien securing
the Second Lien Loan Obligations intended to be perfected by the provisions of
this Section 4.4(a) will be perfected.  Nothing

 

 

contained in this Section 4.4(a) shall
limit or restrict in any way the rights of the First Lien Agent to deal with any
Collateral referred to in this Section 4.4(a) as permitted by the
First Lien Loan Documents and without regard to any rights of the Second Lien
Creditors in such Collateral except as provided in the immediately preceding
sentence.

 

(b)           In the event that any Second Lien Creditor takes
possession of or has “control” (as such term is used in the Uniform Commercial
Code as in effect in each applicable jurisdiction) over any Collateral for
purposes of perfecting its Lien therein, such Second Lien Creditor shall be
deemed to be holding such Collateral as agent for the Secured Creditors,
including the First Lien Creditors, solely for purposes of perfection of its
Lien under the Uniform Commercial Code or comparable applicable law; provided
that such Second Lien Creditor shall not have any duty or liability whatsoever
to protect or preserve any rights pertaining to any of the Collateral for the
First Lien Creditors, and each First Lien Creditors hereby waives and releases
the Second Lien Creditors from all claims and liabilities arising pursuant to
its role as such agent, except for claims and liabilities arising from gross
negligence or willful misconduct as finally determined pursuant to a final
order of a court of competent jurisdiction. 
The Second Lien Agent makes no representation or warranty that any Lien
securing the First Lien Loan Obligations intended to be perfected by the
provisions of this Section 4.4(b) will be perfected.  Nothing contained in this Section 4.4(b) shall
limit or restrict in any way the rights of the Second Lien Agent to deal with
any Collateral referred to in this Section 4.4(b) as permitted by the
Second Lien Loan Documents and the other provisions of this Agreement.

 

(c)           It is
understood and agreed that this Section 4.4 is intended solely to
assure continuous perfection of the Liens granted under the applicable
Documents, and nothing in this Section 4.4 shall be deemed or
construed as altering the priorities or obligations set forth elsewhere in this
Agreement.

 

4.5          Waiver of Marshalling and Similar Rights. 
Each Secured Creditor, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable
law, waives as to each other Secured Creditor any requirement regarding, and
agrees not to demand, request, plead or otherwise claim the benefit of, any
marshalling, appraisement, valuation or other similar right that may otherwise
be available under applicable law.

 

4.6          Titled Vehicles.  The First Lien Agent, the Second Lien Agent
and the Obligors each agree that until the First Lien Loan Termination Date and
the re-issuance of titles with respect to titled vehicles constituting
Collateral as contemplated by Section 4.4(a), each certificate of title
with respect to any titled vehicle constituting part of the Collateral shall,
except as provided in the following proviso, name the First Lien Agent as
secured party and such notation shall be intended to perfect the security
interest of the First Lien Agent for the benefit of the First Lien Secured
Parties and the security interest of the First Lien Agent as agent for the
Second Lien Agent (for the benefit of the Second Lien Agent and the Second Lien
Lenders) granted pursuant to Section 4.4(a) hereof in such titled
vehicles; provided, that unless the Second Lien Agent determines that
the notation of the Second Lien Agent as a secured party in addition to the
First Lien Agent is not required in the States of Arizona and Minnesota or any
other State which reserves an area on certificates of title specifically for
the entry of the name of a second lien creditor (any such State being referred
to as a “Separate Title State”) in order to perfect the security interest for
the benefit of Second Lien Agent and the Second Lien Lenders, then for so long
as such separate notation is permitted under applicable law, the Obligors at
their sole cost and expense shall cause (and the First Lien Agent shall execute
at the cost and expense of the Obligors such documents as may be necessary to
cause) Second Lien Agent’s security interest to be separately noted on each
certificate of title as a second priority lien (while retaining the notation of
the First Lien Agent as the first priority lien) under the laws of the
applicable Separate Title State governing titled vehicles constituting part of
the Collateral.  Until the First Lien
Loan Termination Date, each Obligor that submits to any governmental agency or
authority (i) any request for issuance in the name of any Obligor any
certificate of title for any

 

 

vehicle included in the Collateral or (ii) any
certificate of title for a vehicle included in the Collateral for notation on
such certificate of title of a lien, shall request that the Lien of the First
Lien Agent be noted on such certificate of title, either as the sole
lien-holder or, to the extent that the lien of the Second Lien Agent is to be
separately noted on such certificate of title in accordance with the foregoing
provisions of this Section 4.6 or as requested by the Second Lien Agent in
accordance with the Second Lien Loan Documents, as the first priority lien with
the lien of the Second Lien Agent being noted on such certificate of title as
the second priority lien.

 

Section 5.              Covenants

 

5.1          Amendment of First Lien Loan Documents. 
The First Lien Creditors may at any time and from time to time and
without consent of or notice to any Second Lien Creditor, without incurring any
liability to any Second Lien Creditor and without impairing or releasing any
rights or obligations hereunder or otherwise, amend, restate, refinance,
refund, replace supplement or otherwise modify any or all of the First Lien
Documents; provided  however, that without the consent of the
Second Lien Creditors, the First Lien Creditors shall not amend, restate,
refinance, refund, replace supplement or otherwise modify any or all of the
First Lien Documents to (i) increase the interest rates on the First Lien
Loan Obligations to an amount greater than 3.0% per annum above the rates as
are in effect on the date hereof (excluding, without limitation, fluctuations
in underlying rate indices and imposition of a default rate of 2% per annum) (i) change
the final maturity date of the First Lien Loan Obligations to a date later than
November 1, 2010, (iii) increase the principal amount of the First
Lien Loan Obligations in excess of the Maximum First Lien Principal Amount, other
than as a result of the capitalization of accrued interest and expenses, (iv) modify
or add any covenant or event of default under the First Lien Documents which
directly restricts one or more Obligors from making payments under the Second
Lien Loan Documents which would otherwise be permitted under the First Lien
Documents as in effect on the date hereof or (v) modify in a manner
adverse to the Obligors, any right contained in the GE Credit Agreement as of
the date hereof, to refinance the Second Lien Loan Obligations.

 

5.2          Amendments to Second Lien Loan Documents. 
Until the First Lien Loan Obligations have been Paid in Full, and
notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Second Lien Loan
Documents, the Second Lien Creditors shall not, without the prior written
consent of the First Lien Agent, agree to any amendment, modification or
supplement to the Second Lien Loan Documents or any refinancing of the Second
Lien Loan Documents that that would (i) increase the interest rates on the
Second Lien Loan Obligations to an amount greater than 3.0% per annum above the
rates as are in effect on the date hereof (excluding, without limitation,
fluctuations in underlying rate indices and imposition of a default rate of 2%
per annum, (ii) shorten the maturity or weighted average life to maturity
of the Second Lien Loan Obligations, (iii) increase the amount of the
Second Lien Loan Obligations (other than through the addition to principal of
capitalized interest and expenses), or (iv) change any requirement as to
prepayment of the Second Lien Loan Obligations that would increase the amount
of any required prepayment under the Second Lien Loan Documents, create a new
prepayment requirement or move to an earlier date any prepayment requirement
under the Second Lien Loan Documents, or (v) add or make more restrictive
any covenants, agreements, or events of default under the Second Lien Loan
Documents.

 

5.3          Enforcement Actions by Second Lien Creditors;
Prepayments.

 

(a)           The Second Lien Creditors shall give the First Lien
Agent at least five (5) Business Days’ written notice prior to taking any
Enforcement Action, which notice may be given during the pendency of any
Standstill Period.

 

 

(b)           Except as otherwise permitted by this Agreement or the
terms of the First Lien Loan Documents as in effect at such time, without the
prior written consent of the First Lien Agent, no Second Lien Creditor will
take, demand or receive from any Obligor any payment or prepayment of principal
of the Second Lien Loan Obligations that is not permitted under the terms of
the GE Credit Agreement as in effect on the date hereof, provided, however that
notwithstanding the foregoing, the Second Lien Agent and any Second Lien
Lenders payment may receive payments of principal, premium, interests, fees and
other amounts due under the Second Lien Loan Documents and so permitted so long
as such receipt is not the direct or indirect result of the enforcement or
exercise by the Second Lien Agent or any Second Lien Lender of rights or
remedies as a secured creditor (including any right of setoff) or enforcement
in contravention of this Agreement of any Lien in favor of the Second Lien
Creditors..

 

Section 6.              Second
Lien Creditors Purchase Option.

 

6.1          Purchase Notice.  Upon the
Second Lien Creditors’ receipt of a notice from First Lien Agent (the “Agent’s
Notice”) that First Lien Agent has accelerated the First Lien Loan
Obligations (which the First Lien Agent agrees to give promptly following any
such acceleration), the Second Lien Creditors shall have the option to purchase
all of the First Lien Loan Obligations owing to the First Lien Lenders from the
First Lien Lenders by giving a written notice (the “Purchase Notice”) to

paid by the Second Lien Creditors to the bank account designated by the First
Lien Agent are received in such bank account later than 1:00 p.m., New

6.4          Nature of Sale.  Such purchase
and sale shall be expressly made without representation or warranty of any kind

Obligations and such assignment has been duly authorized by all necessary

Section 7.              Bankruptcy
Matters.

 

7.1          Relief from the Automatic Stay. 
Until the First Lien Loan Termination Date, the Second Lien Agent, on
behalf of itself and the Second Lien Creditors, agrees that none of them shall
seek (or support any other Person (other than the First Lien Agent) seeking)
reflief from the automatic say or any other stay in any Insolvency Proceeding
in respect of the Collateral, without the prior written consent of the First
Lien Agent.

 

7.2          Post Petition Financing.

 

(a)           If any Obligor or Obligors shall become subject to a
case under the Bankruptcy Code and such Obligor or Obligors as
debtor(s)-in-possession (or a trustee appointed on behalf of such Obligor or
Obligors) shall move for either (x) approval of financing (“DIP Financing”)
to be provided by one or more of the First Lien Creditors under Section 364
of the Bankruptcy Code or (y) the use of cash collateral with the consent of
the First Lien Creditors under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, subject
to Section 7.2(b), the Second Lien Creditors agree as follows:  (a) adequate notice to Second Lien
Creditors for such financing or use of cash collateral shall be delivered to
the Second Lien Creditors if the Second Lien Creditors receives notice two (2) Business
Days prior to the entry of the order approving such financing or use of cash
collateral, (b) such financing (including any First Lien Loan Obligations
which arose prior to the Insolvency Proceeding) may be secured by Liens on all
or a part of the assets of the Obligors which shall be superior in priority to
the Liens on the assets of the Obligors held by any other Person, and (c) the
Second Lien Creditors shall not contest or oppose in any manner such financing
or cash collateral use and shall be deemed to have waived any objections to
such financing or cash collateral use, including by any objection alleging
Obligors’ failure to provide “adequate protection” for the Liens of the Second
Lien Creditors or otherwise, as long as (i) the Second Lien Creditors
retain a Lien on the Collateral (including proceeds thereof arising after the
commencement of such proceeding) with the same priority as existed prior to the
commencement of the case under the Bankruptcy Code (subject to the Liens
securing such financing as described above), (ii) the First Lien Creditors
do not object to Second Lien Creditors receiving a replacement Lien on
post-petition assets, with the same priority as existed prior to the
commencement of the case under the Bankruptcy Code (provided that the inability
of the Second Lien Creditors to receive a Lien on actions under Chapter 5 of
the Bankruptcy Code or proceeds thereof shall not affect the agreements and
waivers set forth in this clause (a)), (iii) the aggregate principal
amount of loans and letter of credit accommodations outstanding under such
post-petition financing, together with the principal amount of the pre-petition
First Lien Loan Obligations, shall not exceed the Maximum First Lien Principal
Amount, and (iv) such financing or use of cash collateral is subject to
the terms of this Agreement.

 

 

(b)           Notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions in this Section 7.2, in any Insolvency
Proceeding, (i) if the First Lien Creditors (or any subset thereof) are
granted adequate protection in the form of additional collateral in connection
with any DIP Financing, the Second Lien Creditors may seek adequate protection
in the form of a Lien on such additional collateral, which Lien, if granted,
will be subordinate to the Liens securing the First Lien Loan Obligations and
such DIP Financing on the same basis as the other Liens securing the Second
Lien Loan Obligations are so subordinated under this Agreement (provided that
any failure of the Second Lien Creditors to obtain such adequate protection
shall not impair or otherwise affect the agreements, undertakings and consents
of the Second Lien Creditors pursuant to Section 7.2(a)), and (ii) in
the event one or more Second Lien Creditors seek or request such adequate
protection in respect of Second Lien Loan Obligations and such adequate
protection is granted in the form of a Lien on additional collateral , then
each Second Lien Creditor agrees that the First Lien Agent may seek and obtain,
and each Second Lien Creditor hereby consents to the granting of, a senior Lien
on such additional collateral as security for the First Lien Loan Obligations
and for any such DIP Financing provided by the First Lien Creditors and to any
other Liens granted to the First Lien Creditors as adequate protection on the
same basis as the other Liens securing the Second Lien Loan Obligations are
subordinated under this Agreement.

 

(c)           The Second Lien Creditors may seek post-petition
interest and/or adequate protection payments in any Insolvency Proceeding, and
the First Lien Lenders may oppose such motions.

 

7.3          Sale of Collateral; Waivers. 
The Second Lien Creditors agree that they will not object to or oppose a
sale or other disposition of any assets securing the Obligations under the
First Lien Loan Documents (or any portion thereof) free and clear of Liens or
other claims under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code or any other
provision of the Bankruptcy Code if First Lien Creditors have consented to such
sale or disposition of such assets, except that they may assert any such
objection that could be asserted by an unsecured creditor.  The Second Lien Creditors waive any claim
they may now or hereafter have arising out of the First Lien Creditors’
election in any proceeding instituted under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code
of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code.  The Second Lien Creditors agree not to
initiate or prosecute or join with any other Person to initiate or prosecute
any claim, action or other proceeding (i) challenging the enforceability
of the First Lien Creditors’ claim as a fully secured claim with respect to all
or part of the First Lien Loan Obligations, or opposing any action by the First
Lien Creditors to enforce their rights or remedies relating under the First
Lien Loan Documents, (ii) challenging the enforceability, validity,
priority or perfected status of any Liens on assets securing the First Lien
Loan Obligations under the First Lien Loan Documents, (iii) asserting any
claims which the Obligors may hold with respect to the First Lien Creditors, (iv) seeking
to lift the automatic stay to the extent that such action is opposed by the
First Lien Agent, or (v) opposing a motion by the First Lien Agent to lift
the automatic stay.

 

7.4          Invalidated Payments. 
Subject to Section 2(e), to the extent that the First Lien
Creditors receive payments on, or proceeds of Collateral for, the Obligations
under the First Lien Loan Documents which are subsequently invalidated,
declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be
repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law,
state or federal law, common law, or equitable cause, then to the extent of
such payment or proceeds received, such Obligations, or part thereof, intended
to be satisfied shall be revived and continue in full force and effect as if
such payments or proceeds had not been received by the First Lien Creditors.

 

7.5          Payments.  In the event of any Insolvency Proceeding
involving one or more Obligors, subject to the Second Lien Creditors’ rights to
receive post-petition interest and adequate protection payments (subject to the
limitations set forth in Section 7.2(c)), all proceeds of
Collateral shall be applied to the First Lien Loan Obligations until all First
Lien Loan Obligations are Paid in Full before any

 

 

Distribution, whether in cash, securities or other property,
shall be made to one or more Second Lien Creditors on account of any Second
Lien Loan Obligations.

 

7.6          Notice of Claims.  The parties
acknowledge and agree that (i) the claims and interests of the First Lien
Creditors under the First Lien Loan Documents are substantially different from
the claims and interests of the Second Lien Creditors under the Second Lien
Loan Documents and (ii) such claims and interests should be treated as
separate classes for purposes of Section 1122 of the Bankruptcy Code and,
in any Insolvency Proceeding, the Second Lien Creditors will not make any
assertion to the contrary or object to the assertion that the claims and
interests of the First Lien Creditors under the First Lien Loan Documents are
substantially different from the claims of the Second Lien Creditors under the
Second Lien Loan Documents.

 

7.7          Rights as Unsecured Creditors. 
The Second Lien Creditors may exercise rights and remedies as unsecured
creditors against the Borrowers and other Obligors in accordance with the
Second Lien Loan Documents and applicable law, in each case, in accordance with
the terms of this Agreement, provided that any judgment lien on Collateral
obtained by any Second Lien Creditor in respect of the Second Lien Loan
Obligations shall be subject in all respects to this Agreement.

 

Section 8.              Miscellaneous.

 

8.1          Termination.  This
Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect upon either (a) the
First Lien Loan Termination Date, or (b) Payment in Full of all of the

or expiration of any commitment of the Second Lien Creditors under the Second
Lien Loan Agreement.

 

8.2          Successors and Assigns.

except through the Secured Creditor with which it is a participant.

or assignment, a Secured Creditor (i) may, subject to its respective
Documents, disclose to such assignee, participant or other transferee or
