The Credits

          SECTION 2.01. Revolving Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth
herein, each Lender agrees to make Revolving Loans to the Borrower from time to time during the
Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount that will not result in (a) such Lender’s
Revolving Exposure exceeding such Lender’s Revolving Commitment or (b) the aggregate Revolving
Exposures exceeding the lesser of (x) the aggregate Revolving Commitments and (y) the Borrowing
Base, in each case at such time, subject to the Administrative Agent’s authority, in its sole
discretion, to make Overadvances pursuant to the terms of Section 2.04. Within the foregoing
limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, prepay
and reborrow Revolving Loans. All Loans shall be made in dollars. All Revolving Loans, Swingline
Loans and Letters of Credit outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement on the Restatement
Effective Date shall remain outstanding hereunder on the terms set forth herein.

          SECTION 2.02. Loans and Borrowings. (a) Each Loan (other than a Swingline Loan or
Overadvance) shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans of the same Type made by the
Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments. Any Overadvance and any
Swingline Loan shall be made in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.04. The
failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by it hereunder shall not relieve any
other Lender of its obligations hereunder, provided that the Commitments of the Lenders are
several and no Lender shall be responsible for any other Lender’s failure to make Loans as
required.

          (b) Subject to Section 2.13, each Revolving Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of ABR
Loans or Eurodollar Loans as the Borrower may request in accordance herewith. Each Swingline Loan
and Overadvance shall be an ABR Loan. Each Lender at its option may make any Eurodollar Loan by
causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan,
provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower
to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

          (c) At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing
shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than
$5,000,000. At the time that each ABR Revolving Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an
aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $1,000,000. Each
Swingline Loan shall be in an amount that is not less than $500,000. Borrowings of more than one
Type may be outstanding at the same time, provided that there shall not at any time be
more than a total of ten Eurodollar Borrowings outstanding. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Section 2.02(c), an ABR Revolving Borrowing or a Swingline Loan may be in an
aggregate amount that is equal to the entire unused balance of the aggregate Revolving Commitments
or that is required to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section
2.05(e).

          (d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrower shall not be
entitled to request, or to elect to convert or continue, any Borrowing if the Interest Period
requested with respect thereto would end after the Maturity Date.

27

 

          SECTION 2.03. Requests for Borrowings. To request a Revolving Borrowing, the
Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (a) in the case of a
Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the
date of the proposed Borrowing or (b) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m.,
New York City time, one Business Day before the date of the proposed Borrowing, provided
that any such notice of an ABR Revolving Borrowing to finance the reimbursement of an LC
Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.05(e) may be given not later than 10:00 a.m., New York
City time, on the date of the proposed Borrowing. Each such telephonic Borrowing Request shall be
irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy or Adobe pdf file to the
Administrative Agent of a written Borrowing Request substantially in the form of Exhibit C
signed by the Borrower. Each such telephonic and written Borrowing Request shall specify the
following information:

     (i) the aggregate amount of such Borrowing;

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

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

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

     (v) the location and number of the Borrower’s account to which funds are to be
disbursed, which shall comply with the requirements of Section 2.06; and

     (vi) that as of such date the conditions set forth in Sections 4.02(a) and (b) are
satisfied.

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

          SECTION 2.04. Swingline Loans and Overadvances. (a) Subject to the terms and
conditions set forth herein, the Swingline Lender agrees to make Swingline Loans to the Borrower
from time to time during the Availability Period, in an aggregate principal amount at any time
outstanding that will not result in (i) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Swingline
Loans exceeding $40,000,000 or (ii) the aggregate Revolving Exposures exceeding the lesser of (x)
the aggregate Revolving Commitments and (y) the Borrowing Base, in each case at such time,
provided that the Swingline Lender shall not be required to make a Swingline Loan to
refinance an outstanding Swingline Loan. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and
conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Swingline Loans.

          (b) To request a Swingline Loan, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such
request by telephone (confirmed by telecopy or by Adobe pdf file), not later than 12:00 noon, New
York City time, on the day of such proposed Swingline Loan. Each such notice shall be irrevocable
and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day) and amount of the requested
Swingline Loan. The Administrative Agent will promptly advise the Swingline Lender of any such
notice received from the Borrower. The Swingline Lender shall make each Swingline Loan available
to the Borrower by means of a credit to the general deposit account of the Borrower maintained with
the Swingline Lender (or (i) in the case of a Swingline Loan made to finance the reimbursement of
an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.05(e), by remittance to the Issuing Bank or, to the
extent that the Revolving Lenders

28

 

have made payments pursuant to Section 2.05(e) to reimburse the Issuing Bank, to such Lenders
and the Issuing Bank as their interests may appear and (ii) in the case of a Swingline Loan made to
finance the repayment of another Loan or fees or expenses as provided by Section 2.17(c), by
remittance to the Administrative Agent to be distributed to the Lenders as their interests may
appear) by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the requested date of such Swingline Loan.

          (c) The Swingline Lender may by written notice given to the Administrative Agent not later
than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on any Business Day require the Revolving Lenders to acquire
participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the Swingline Loans outstanding. Such
notice shall specify the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans in which Revolving Lenders will
participate. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent will give notice
thereof to each Revolving Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of
such Swingline Loan or Swingline Loans. Each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and
unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to the Administrative
Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such
Swingline Loan or Swingline Loans. Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its
obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and
unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence
and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitments, and that
each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.
Each Revolving Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of
immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.06 with respect to Loans
made by such Lender (and Section 2.06 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment
obligations of the Revolving Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the
Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders. The Administrative
Agent shall notify the Borrower of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired pursuant to
this paragraph, and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to the
Administrative Agent and not to the Swingline Lender. Any amounts received by the Swingline Lender
from the Borrower (or other party on behalf of the Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after
receipt by the Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be
promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent; any such amounts received by the Administrative
Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Revolving Lenders that shall
have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the Swingline Lender, as their interests
may appear, provided that any such payment so remitted shall be repaid to the Swingline
Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, if and to the extent such payment is
required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. The purchase of participations in a
Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the Borrower of any default in the
payment thereof.

          (d) Any provision of this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, at the request of the
Borrower, the Administrative Agent may in its sole discretion (but with absolutely no obligation)
make Loans to the Borrower, on behalf of the Revolving Lenders, in amounts that exceed the Excess
Availability immediately prior to the making of such Loans (any such excess Loans are herein
referred to collectively as “Overadvances”), provided that no Overadvance shall
result in a Default due to the Borrower’s failure to comply with Section 2.01 for so long as such
Overadvance remains outstanding in accordance with the terms of this paragraph, but solely with
respect to the amount of such Overadvance. In addition, Overadvances may be made even if the
conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.02 have not been satisfied. All Overadvances shall be
ABR Borrowings. The authority of the Administrative Agent to make Overadvances is limited to an
aggregate amount not to exceed $25,000,000 at any time, no Overadvance may remain outstanding for
more than 30 days and no Overadvance shall cause any Lender’s Revolving Exposure to exceed its
Revolving Commitment, provided that the Required Lenders may at any time revoke the
Administrative Agent’s authorization to make Overadvances. Any such

29

 

revocation must be in writing and shall become effective prospectively upon the Administrative
Agent’s receipt thereof.

          (e) Upon the making of an Overadvance by the Administrative Agent, each Revolving Lender
shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and
irrevocably purchased from the Administrative Agent without recourse or warranty, an undivided
interest and participation in such Overadvance in proportion to its Applicable Percentage of the
Revolving Commitment. The Administrative Agent may, at any time, require the Revolving Lenders to
fund their participations in any Overadvance. From and after the date, if any, on which any
Revolving Lender is required to fund its participation in any Overadvance purchased hereunder, the
Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to such Lender, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage
of all payments of principal and interest and all proceeds of Collateral received by the
Administrative Agent in respect of such Overadvance.

          SECTION 2.05. Letters of Credit. (a) General. As of the Restatement
Effective Date, each Existing Letter of Credit, automatically and without any action on the part of
any Person, has been deemed to be a Letter of Credit issued hereunder for all purposes of this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the
Borrower may request the issuance of Letters of Credit for its own account (or for the account of
any Subsidiary so long as the Borrower and such Subsidiary are co-applicants), in a form reasonably
acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time
during the Availability Period. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions
of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other
agreement submitted by the Borrower to, or entered into by the Borrower with, the Issuing Bank
relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control.

          (b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. To
request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an
outstanding Letter of Credit), the Borrower shall hand deliver or telecopy (or transmit by
electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the Issuing Bank) to
the Issuing Bank (except that the Issuing Bank in respect of Existing Letters of Credit shall not
issue additional Letters of Credit and, unless agreed by it, shall not be required to amend, renew
or extend an Existing Letter of Credit) and the Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of the
requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a notice requesting the issuance of a
Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and
specifying the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day),
the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) of
this Section), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary
thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such
Letter of Credit. If requested by the Issuing Bank, the Borrower also shall submit a letter of
credit application on the Issuing Bank’s standard form in connection with any request for a Letter
of Credit. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon
issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the Borrower shall be deemed to
represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or
extension, (i) the LC Exposure shall not exceed $250,000,000 and (ii) the aggregate Revolving
Exposures shall not exceed the lesser of (x) the aggregate Revolving Commitments and (y) the
Borrowing Base, in each case at such time.

          (c) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of
business on the earlier of (i) the date that is one year after the date of the issuance of such
Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal
or extension) and (ii) the date that is five Business Days prior to the Maturity Date;
provided, however, that a Letter of Credit may, upon the request of the Borrower
and with the consent of the Issuing Bank, include a

30

 

provision whereby such Letter of Credit shall be renewed automatically for additional
consecutive periods of one year or less (but not beyond the date that is five Business Days prior
to the Maturity Date) unless the Issuing Bank, in its discretion, notifies the beneficiary thereof
at least 30 days prior to the then-applicable expiration date that such Letter of Credit will not
be renewed.

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

          (e) Reimbursement. If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of
a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the
Administrative Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement not later than 3:00 p.m., New York
City time, on the date that such LC Disbursement is made, if the Borrower shall have received
notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on such date, or, if such
notice has not been received by the Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than
(i) 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day that the Borrower receives such notice, if
such notice is received prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the day of receipt, or (ii)
12:00 noon, New York City time, on the Business Day immediately following the day that the
Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is not received prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City
time, on the day of receipt, provided that, if such LC Disbursement is not less than
$250,000, the Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein (other than
the minimum borrowing amount requirements set forth in Section 2.02(c)), request in accordance
with Section 2.03 or 2.04 that such payment be financed with an ABR Revolving Borrowing or
Swingline Loan in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s obligation
to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Revolving Borrowing or
Swingline Loan. If the Borrower fails to make such payment when due, the Administrative Agent
shall notify each Revolving Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from
the Borrower in respect thereof and such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof. Promptly
following receipt of such notice, each Revolving Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent its
Applicable Percentage of the payment then due from the Borrower, in the same manner as provided in
Section 2.06 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.06 shall apply,
mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Lenders), and the
Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the
Revolving Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the
Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the
Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to this
paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank, then to such Lenders and the Issuing Bank as their
interests may appear. Any payment made by a Revolving Lender pursuant to this paragraph to
reimburse the Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Revolving Loans
or a Swingline Loan as contemplated above) shall not

31

 

constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC
Disbursement.

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

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

          (h) Interim Interest. If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then,
unless the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement
is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date
such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such LC
Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans, provided that,
if the Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this
Section, then

32

 

Section 2.12(d) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of
the Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Revolving
Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse the Issuing Bank shall be for the
account of such Lender to the extent of such payment.

          (i) Replacement of the Issuing Bank. The Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time
by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and
the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such
replacement of the Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the
Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant
to Section 2.11(d). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor
Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement
with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term
“Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to
such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the
replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto
and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement
with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be
required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

          (j) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing,
on or after the Business Day on which the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent
or the Required Lenders that the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated and the Revolving
Commitments have been terminated, Revolving Lenders with LC Exposure representing greater than 50%
of the LC Exposure may demand the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, and the
Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the
Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders, an amount in cash equal to the LC
Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, provided that the
obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit
shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the
occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Borrower described in paragraph (h) or (i)
of Article VII. The Borrower also shall deposit cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph as and
to the extent required by Section 2.10(b). Each such deposit shall be held by the Administrative
Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Borrower under this
Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the
exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the
investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of
the Administrative Agent and at the Borrower’s risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear
interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account.
Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank
for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall
be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for the LC Exposure
at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of
Revolving Lenders with LC Exposure representing greater than 50% of the LC Exposure), be applied
to satisfy other obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. If the Borrower is required to
provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of
Default and acceleration of the maturity of the Loans, as described above, such amount (to the
extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower within three Business Days
after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. If the Borrower is required to provide an
amount of cash collateral hereunder pursuant to Section 2.10(b), such amount (to the extent not
applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower as and to the extent that, after giving
effect to such return, the Borrower would remain in compliance with Section 2.10(b) and no Default
shall have occurred and be continuing.

33

 

          SECTION 2.06. Funding of Borrowings. (a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be
made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds
by 12:00 noon, New York City time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently
designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders, provided that Swingline Loans
shall be made as provided in Section 2.04. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available
to the Borrower by promptly, and in no event later than 3:00 p.m., New York City time, crediting
the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower maintained with the
Administrative Agent in New York City and designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing
Request, provided that ABR Revolving Loans made to finance the reimbursement of (i) an LC
Disbursement as provided in Section 2.05(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the
Issuing Bank or, to the extent that the Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to Section
2.05(e) to reimburse the Issuing Bank, then to such Lenders and the Issuing Bank as their interests
may appear or (ii) an Overadvance shall be retained by the Administrative Agent or, to the extent
that the Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to Section 2.04(e) to reimburse the
Administrative Agent in respect of any such Overadvance, remitted by the Administrative Agent to
such Revolving Lenders as their interests may appear.

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

          SECTION 2.07. Interest Elections. (a) Each Revolving Borrowing initially shall be
of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request or designated by Section 2.03 and, in the
case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such
Borrowing Request or designated by Section 2.03. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert
such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurodollar
Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. The Borrower may
elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case
each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such
Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing.
This Section shall not apply to Swingline Borrowings or Overadvances, which may not be converted or
continued.

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

34

 

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

          SECTION 2.08. Termination and Reduction of Revolving Commitments. (a) Unless
previously terminated, the Revolving Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date.

          (b) The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, in either case,
without premium or penalty (other than, with respect to Eurodollar Borrowings, payments that may
become due under Section 2.15), the Revolving Commitments, provided that (i) each reduction
of the Revolving Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and
not less than $5,000,000 and (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Revolving
Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Revolving Loans in
accordance with Section 2.10, the aggregate Revolving Exposure (excluding, in the case of any
termination of the Revolving Commitments, the portion of the Revolving Exposure attributable to
outstanding Letters of Credit if and to the extent that the Borrower has made arrangements
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank with respect to such Letters of
Credit) would exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments.

          (c) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce
the Revolving Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section at least three Business Days prior to
the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective
date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise
the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this
Section shall be

35

 

irrevocable, provided that a notice of termination or reduction of Revolving
Commitments delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the
effectiveness of other credit facilities or the receipt of the proceeds from the issuance of other
Indebtedness or any other event, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by
notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition
is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be permanent.
Each reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance
with their respective Revolving Commitments.

          SECTION 2.09. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) The Borrower hereby
unconditionally promises to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the
then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan of such Lender on the Maturity Date, (ii) to
the Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan on the Maturity Date,
provided that on each date that a Revolving Borrowing is made, the Borrower shall repay all
Swingline Loans that were outstanding on the date such Borrowing was requested, and (iii) to the
Administrative Agent the then unpaid principal amount of each Overadvance on the earliest of (x)
the Maturity Date, (y) the day that is 30 days after the making of such Overadvance and (z) demand
by the Administrative Agent.

          (b) On each Business Day during any Cash Dominion Period, the Administrative Agent shall
apply all immediately available funds credited to the Collection Account, first to prepay
any Overadvances that may be outstanding, pro rata, second to prepay any
Swingline Loans and to reimburse any LC Disbursements that may be outstanding, pro
rata, and third to prepay any Revolving Loans that may be outstanding and, if no
such Loans are outstanding, to cash collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit on terms
reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank, it being understood that
any prepayments of Revolving Loans shall be applied in accordance with the penultimate sentence of
Section 2.17(b).

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

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

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

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

36

 

          SECTION 2.10. Prepayment of Loans. (a) The Borrower shall have the right at any
time and from time to time to prepay without premium or penalty (other than, with respect to
Eurodollar Borrowings, payments that may become due under Section 2.15) any Borrowing in whole or
in part, subject to the requirements of this Section.

          (b) Except for Overadvances permitted under Section 2.04, in the event and on such occasion
that the aggregate Revolving Exposure exceeds the lesser of (x) the aggregate Revolving Commitments
and (y) the Borrowing Base, in each case as of the applicable date of determination, the Borrower
shall prepay Revolving Borrowings and/or Swingline Borrowings (or, if no such Borrowings are
outstanding, deposit cash collateral in an account with the Administrative Agent to be retained
pursuant to Section 2.05(j) for so long as such condition exists) in an aggregate amount equal to
such excess.

          (c) Prior to any optional prepayment or mandatory prepayment of Borrowings hereunder, the
Borrower shall select the Borrowing or Borrowings to be prepaid and shall specify such selection in
the notice of such prepayment pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section.

          (d) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a
Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender) by telephone (confirmed by telecopy or by Adobe pdf file) of
any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than
11:00 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of prepayment, (ii) in the case
of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, one Business Day
before the date of prepayment or (iii) in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, not later
than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be
irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date, the principal amount of each Borrowing or
portion thereof to be prepaid and, in the case of a mandatory prepayment, a reasonably detailed
calculation of the amount of such prepayment, provided that a notice of optional prepayment
may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or the
receipt of the proceeds from the issuance of other Indebtedness or any other event, in which case
such notice of prepayment may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on
or prior to the specified date) if such condition is not satisfied. Promptly following receipt of
any such notice (other than a notice relating solely to Swingline Loans) the Administrative Agent
shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Revolving
Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Revolving
Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02, except as necessary to apply fully the
required amount of a mandatory prepayment. Each prepayment of a Revolving Borrowing shall be
applied ratably to the Revolving Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be
accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.12.

          SECTION 2.11. Fees. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for
the account of each Lender a facility fee, which shall accrue at the rate of 0.75% per annum (or,
for that portion of any facility fee accruing prior to the Restatement Effective Date, at the rate
per annum specified in Section 2.12(a) of the Existing Credit Agreement) on the Revolving
Commitment of such Lender during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding
the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate. Accrued facility fees shall be payable in
arrears on the third Business Day following the last day of each March, June, September and
December of each year and on the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate, commencing on
the first such date to occur after the Effective Date. All facility fees shall be computed on the
basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including
the first day but excluding the last day).

          (b) The Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each
Revolving Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which
shall

37

 

accrue at the same Applicable Rate used to determine the interest rate applicable to
Eurodollar Revolving Loans (or, for that portion of any participation fee accruing prior to the
Restatement Effective Date, at the rate specified in Section 2.12(d)(i) of the Existing Credit
Agreement) on the average daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof
attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective
Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender’s Revolving Commitment terminates
and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, and (ii) to the Issuing Bank a
fronting fee, which shall accrue at a rate equal to 0.25% per annum (or, for that portion of any
fronting fee accruing prior to the Restatement Effective Date, at the rate per annum specified in
Section 2.12(d)(ii) of the Existing Credit Agreement) on the average daily amount of the LC
Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the
period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination
of the Revolving Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure, as well as
the Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of
any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Participation fees and fronting fees
accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year
shall be payable on the third Business Day following such last day, commencing on the first such
date to occur after the Effective Date, provided that all such fees shall be payable on the
date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on
which the Revolving Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to
the Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within 10 days after demand. All
participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall
be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last
day).

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

          (d) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available
funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to the Issuing Bank, in the case of fees payable to it) for
distribution, in the case of commitment fees and participation fees, to the Lenders entitled
thereto. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

          (e) For purposes of clarification, (i) any fee required to be paid under this Section 2.11
for a payment period ending prior to the Restatement Effective Date shall be deemed to have been
paid for purposes of this Section 2.11 to the extent that such fee was paid under, and in
accordance with the terms of, the Existing Credit Agreement and (ii) any fee required to be paid
under this Section 2.11 for any portion of a payment period that occurs prior to the Restatement
Effective Date shall, solely with respect to such portion of such payment period, be determined in
the manner and in accordance with the terms set forth in Section 2.12 of the Existing Credit
Agreement.

          SECTION 2.12. Interest. (a) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing (including each
Swingline Loan) shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate.

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

          (c) Each Overadvance shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the
Applicable Rate plus 2.00%.

          (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or
other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity,
upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before
judgment,

38

 

at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2.00%
plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of
this Section or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2.00% plus the rate applicable to ABR
Revolving Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section.

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

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

          (g) For purposes of clarification, (i) any interest required to be paid under this Section
2.12 for a payment period ending prior to the Restatement Effective Date shall be deemed to have
been paid for purposes of this Section 2.12 to the extent that such interest was paid under, and
in accordance with the terms of, the Existing Credit Agreement and (ii) any interest required to
be paid under this Section 2.12 for any portion of a payment period that occurs prior to the
Restatement Effective Date shall, solely with respect to such portion of such payment period, be
determined in the manner and in accordance with the terms set forth in Section 2.13 of the
Existing Credit Agreement.

          SECTION 2.13. Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of any
Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing:

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

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

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by
telephone or telecopy or by Adobe pdf file as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the
Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to
such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any
Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective and
(ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an
ABR Borrowing, provided that following the first day that such condition shall cease to
exist, such Borrowings may be made as or converted to Eurodollar Borrowings at the request of and
in accordance with the elections of the Borrower.

39

 

          SECTION 2.14. Increased Costs. (a) If any Change in Law shall:

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

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

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

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

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

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

          SECTION 2.15. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any
principal of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable
thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan
other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow,
convert, continue or prepay any Eurodollar Loan (or to convert any ABR Loan into a Eurodollar Loan)
on the date specified in any notice

40

 

delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section
2.10(d) and is revoked in accordance therewith) or (d) the assignment of any Eurodollar Loan other
than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the
Borrower to replace a Lender pursuant to Section 2.18(b) or Section 9.02(c), then, in any such
event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and reasonable expense
attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurodollar Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any
Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of
(i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such
event not occurred, at the LIBO Rate (without consideration of the Applicable Rate) that would have
been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the
then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue,
for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of
interest that would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate that such
Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a
comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar market (without consideration of
the Applicable Rate). A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such
Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall
be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on
any such certificate within 10 days after the Borrower’s receipt thereof.

          SECTION 2.16. Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of
the Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, provided that if the Borrower shall be required to deduct
any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be
increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions
applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent, Lender or
Issuing Bank (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no
such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower
shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with
applicable law.

          (b) Without limiting the provisions of paragraph (a) above, the Borrower shall timely pay
any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

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

          (d) Each Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent within 10 days after demand
therefor, for the full amount of any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender that are payable
by the Administrative Agent, and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto,
whether or not such Excluded 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
any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

41

 

          (e) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the
Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to Section 2.16(a), the Borrower shall deliver to
the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental
Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence
of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

          (f) Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax
under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such
jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the
Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable
law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, 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. In addition, any Lender, if requested by the Borrower
or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law
or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or
the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding
or information reporting requirements.

          Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is resident
for tax purposes in the U.S., any Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the
Administrative 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 the request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, but only if such
Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do so), whichever of the following is applicable:

     (i) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN claiming
eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the U.S. is a party,

     (ii) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI,

     (iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption
for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the
effect that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of section
881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the
meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign
corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (y) duly completed
copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, or

     (iv) any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming
exemption from or a reduction in U.S. Federal withholding Tax duly completed
together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable
law to permit the Borrower to determine the withholding or deduction required to be
made.

          Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification previously delivered by such Lender
pursuant to this paragraph (f) expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect,
such Lender shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent in writing of such Lender’s legal inability to do so.

          (g) If the Administrative Agent, a Lender or the Issuing Bank 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 the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts
pursuant to this Section 2.16, it shall pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such refund. This
paragraph shall not be

42

 

construed to require the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank to make
available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems
confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

          SECTION 2.17. Payments Generally; Allocation of Proceeds; Sharing of Setoffs.
(a) The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it under any Loan Document
(whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable
under Section 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 or 9.03, or otherwise) at or prior to the time expressly required
hereunder or under such other Loan Document for such payment (or, if no such time is expressly
required, prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time), on the date when due, in immediately available
funds, without setoff or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in
the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding
Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the
Administrative Agent at its offices at 270 Park Avenue, New York, New York or at such other address
that the Administrative Agent shall advise the Borrower in writing, except payments to be made
directly to the Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and except that
payments pursuant to Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons
entitled thereto and payments pursuant to other Loan Documents shall be made to the Persons
specified therein. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for
the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof.
If any payment under any Loan Document shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date
for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of any payment
accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All
payments under each Loan Document shall be made in dollars.

          (b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative
Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees then
due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then
due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of
interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal and
unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in
accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due to such
parties. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, any proceeds of Collateral received
by the Administrative Agent (i) not constituting either (A) a specific payment of principal,
interest, fees, reimbursement of LC Disbursements or other sum payable under the Loan Documents
(which shall be applied as specified by the Borrower in accordance with the terms hereof), (B) a
mandatory prepayment (which shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.10) or (C) amounts to be
applied from the Collection Account during any Cash Dominion Period (which shall be applied in
accordance with Section 2.09(b)) or (ii) after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing
and the Administrative Agent so elects or the Required Lenders so direct, shall be applied (in
each case ratably as interests may appear) first, to pay any fees, indemnities, or expense
reimbursements then due to the Administrative Agent from the Loan Parties (other than in
connection with Banking Services Obligations or Swap Obligations), second, to pay any fees
or expense reimbursements then due to the Lenders from the Loan Parties (other than in connection
with Banking Services Obligations or Swap Obligations), third, to pay interest due in
respect of the Overadvances, fourth, to pay the principal of the Overadvances,
fifth, to pay interest then due and payable on the Loans (other than the Overadvances),
sixth, to prepay principal on the Loans (other than the Overadvances) and unreimbursed LC
Disbursements, seventh, to pay an amount to the Administrative Agent equal to 105% of the
aggregate undrawn face amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit to be held as cash collateral
for such Obligations, eighth, to the payment of any other Secured Obligation (other than
Banking Services Obligations and Swap Obligations) due to the Administrative Agent or any Lender
by the Loan Parties, and ninth, to pay any amounts owing with respect to Banking Services
Obligations and Swap Obligations that are Secured Obligations. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in this

43

 

Agreement, unless so directed by the Borrower, or unless an Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing, neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall apply any payment that it
receives to a Eurodollar Loan, except (x) on the expiration date of the Interest Period applicable
to any such Eurodollar Loan or (y) in the event, and only to the extent, that there are no
outstanding ABR Loans and, in any such event, the Borrower shall pay the break funding payment
required in accordance with Section 2.15. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have the
continuing and exclusive right to apply and reverse and reapply any and all such proceeds and
payments to any portion of the Secured Obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

          (c) At the election of the Administrative Agent, all payments of principal, interest, fees,
premiums, reimbursable expenses (including, without limitation, all reimbursement for fees and
expenses pursuant to Section 9.03) and other sums payable under the Loan Documents that are not
paid when due in accordance with the Loan Documents (after giving effect to any applicable grace
period(s)) may be paid from the proceeds of Borrowings made hereunder whether made following a
request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.03 or a deemed request as provided in this Section
or may be deducted from any deposit account of the Borrower maintained with the Administrative
Agent. The Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes (i) the Administrative Agent to make a
Borrowing in the name of the Borrower for the purpose of paying each payment of principal,
interest and fees payable by the Borrower as it becomes due hereunder or any other amount due
under the Loan Documents and agrees that all such amounts charged shall constitute Loans
(including Swingline Loans and Overadvances, as the case may be) and that all such Borrowings
shall be deemed to have been requested pursuant to Sections 2.03 or 2.04, as applicable, and (ii)
the Administrative Agent to charge any deposit account of the Borrower maintained with the
Administrative Agent for each payment of principal, interest and fees payable by such Borrower as
it becomes due hereunder or any other amount due under the Loan Documents.

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

          (e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to
the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders
or the Issuing Bank hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative
Agent

44

 

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

          (f) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to
Section 2.04(c) or (e), 2.05 (d) or (e), 2.06(a) or (b), 2.17(e) or 9.03(c), then the
Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply
any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to
satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are
fully paid.

          SECTION 2.18. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. (a) If any Lender
requests compensation under Section 2.14, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional
amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to
Section 2.16, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office
for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to
another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such
designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.14 or
2.16, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed
cost or expense and would not be inconsistent with its internal policies or otherwise be
disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and
expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

          (b) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14, or if the Borrower is required
to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any
Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, or if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower
may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent,
require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to
the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this
Agreement to an assignee acceptable to the Borrower that shall assume such obligations (which
assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that (i)
the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (and, if a
Revolving Commitment is being assigned, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender), which consent
shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount
equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and funded participations in LC Disbursements,
Swingline Loans and Overadvances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts
payable to it hereunder from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued
interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts), (iii) the Borrower or such
assignee shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the processing and recordation fee specified
in Section 9.04(b) and (iv) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for
compensation under Section 2.14 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.16, such
assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be
required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by
such Lender or otherwise (including as a result of any action taken by such Lender under paragraph
(a) above), the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation
cease to apply.

45

 

          SECTION 2.19. Revolving Commitment Increases. (a) The Borrower may from time to
time (and more than one time), by written notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly
deliver a copy to each of the Lenders), request that the aggregate Revolving Commitments be
increased by an amount not less than $15,000,000 for any such increase, except to the extent
necessary to utilize the remaining unused amount of increase permitted under this Section 2.19(a),
provided that after giving effect to any such increase the sum of the total Revolving
Commitments shall not exceed $600,000,000. Such notice shall set forth the amount of the requested
increase in the Revolving Commitments and the date on which such increase is requested to become
effective (which shall be not less than ten Business Days or more than 60 days after the date of
such notice), and shall offer each Lender (provided that such Lender shall be reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) the opportunity to increase its Revolving Commitment by
such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the proposed increased amount. Each Lender shall, by notice
to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent given not more than ten days after the date of the
Borrower’s notice, either agree to increase its applicable Revolving Commitment by all or a portion
of the offered amount or decline to increase its applicable Commitment (and any Lender that does
not deliver such a notice within such period of ten days shall be deemed to have declined to
increase its Commitment). In the event that, on the tenth day after the Borrower shall have
delivered a notice pursuant to the first sentence of this paragraph, the Lenders shall have
declined to increase their Revolving Commitments or have agreed pursuant to the preceding sentence
to increase their Revolving Commitments by an aggregate amount less than the increase in the total
Revolving Commitments requested by the Borrower, the Borrower may arrange for one or more banks or
other financial institutions (any such bank or other financial institution, together with any
existing Lender that agrees to increase its applicable Revolving Commitment pursuant to the
immediately preceding sentence, being called an “Augmenting Lender”) to provide Revolving
Commitments or increase their existing Revolving Commitments in an aggregate amount equal to the
unsubscribed amount, provided that each Augmenting Lender shall be subject to the approval
of the Administrative Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) and shall not be
subject to the approval of any other Lenders, and the Borrower and each Augmenting Lender shall
execute all such documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the
Revolving Commitment of such Augmenting Lender and/or its status as a Lender hereunder. Any
increase in the aggregate Revolving Commitments may be made in an amount that is less than the
increase requested by the Borrower if the Borrower is unable to arrange for, or chooses not to
arrange for, Augmenting Lenders.

          (b) Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any increase in
the aggregate Revolving Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.19 (the “Revolving Commitment
Increase”), this Agreement may be amended (such amendment, a “Commitment Increase
Amendment”) without the consent of any Lenders to the extent (but only to the extent)
necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Revolving Commitment Increase evidenced
thereby as provided for in Section 9.02(b). Upon each Revolving Commitment Increase pursuant to
this Section, (i) each Lender immediately prior to such increase will automatically and without
further act be deemed to have assigned to each Augmenting Lender providing a portion of such
Revolving Commitment Increase, and each such Augmenting Lender will automatically and without
further act be deemed to have assumed, a portion of such Lender’s participations hereunder in
outstanding Letters of Credit, Swingline Loans and Overadvances such that, after giving effect to
such Revolving Commitment Increase and each such deemed assignment and assumption of
participations, the percentage of the aggregate outstanding (A) participations hereunder in
Letters of Credit, (B) participations hereunder in Swingline Loans and (C) participations
hereunder in Overadvances held by each Lender (including each such Augmenting Lender) will equal
such Lender’s Applicable Percentage and (ii) if, on the date of such Revolving Commitment
Increase, there are any Revolving Loans outstanding, such Revolving Loans shall on or prior to the
effectiveness of such Revolving Commitment Increase be prepaid from the proceeds of additional
Revolving Loans made hereunder (reflecting such Revolving Commitment Increase), which prepayment
shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the Revolving Loans being prepaid and any

46

 

costs incurred by any Lender in accordance with Section 2.15. The Administrative Agent and
the Lenders hereby agree that the minimum borrowing, pro rata borrowing and
pro rata payment requirements contained elsewhere in this Agreement shall not
apply to the transactions effected pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence.

          (c) Increases and new Revolving Commitments created pursuant to this Section 2.19 shall
become effective on the date specified in the notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to the
first sentence of paragraph (a) above or on such other date as agreed upon by the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent and the applicable Augmenting Lenders.

          (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no increase in the Revolving Commitments (or in any
Commitment of any Lender) or addition of an Augmenting Lender shall become effective under this
Section unless on the date of such increase, the conditions set forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) of
Section 4.02 shall be satisfied as of such date (as though the effectiveness of such increase were
a Borrowing) and the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate to that effect dated
such date and executed by a Financial Officer.

          SECTION 2.20. Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to
the contrary, if any Revolving Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions
shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

          (a) if any Swingline Exposure or LC Exposure exists, or any Overadvance is outstanding, at
the time a Revolving Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Borrower shall within one Business Day
following notice by the Administrative Agent (i) prepay such Swingline Exposure or, if agreed by
the Swingline Lender, cash collateralize the Swingline Exposure of the Defaulting Lender on terms
satisfactory to the Swingline Lender, (ii) cash collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure
in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.05(j) for so long as such LC Exposure is
outstanding and (iii) prepay such Overadvance or, if agreed by the Administrative Agent, cash
collateralize that portion of such Overadvance attributable to such Defaulting Lender’s
participation interest therein on terms satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; and

          (b) the Administrative Agent shall not be required to fund any Overadvance, the Swingline
Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan and the Issuing Bank shall not be required
to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that cash collateral will
be provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.20(a).

ARTICLE III

Representations and Warranties

          The Borrower represents and warrants to the Lenders that:

          SECTION 3.01. Organization; Powers. The Borrower and each of the Material
Subsidiaries is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the
jurisdiction of its organization, has all requisite power and authority to carry on its business as
now conducted and as proposed to be conducted, to execute, deliver and perform its obligations
under each Loan Document to which it is a party and to effect the Transactions and, except where
the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result
in a Material Adverse Effect, is qualified to do business in, and is in good standing in, every
jurisdiction where such qualification is required.

          SECTION 3.02. Authorization; Enforceability. The Transactions to be entered into by
each Loan Party have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other action and, if
required,

47

 

action by the holders of such Loan Party’s Equity Interests. This Agreement has been duly
executed and delivered by the Borrower and constitutes, and each other Loan Document to which any
Loan Party is to be a party, when executed and delivered by such Loan Party, will constitute, a
legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower or such Loan Party (as the case may be),
enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to
general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

          SECTION 3.03. Governmental Approvals; No Conflicts. The Transactions (a) do not
require any consent or approval of, registration or filing with, or any other action by, any
Governmental Authority, except (i) filings with any Governmental Authority necessary to perfect
Liens created under the Loan Documents and (ii) such as have been obtained or made and are in full
force and effect, except such consents, approvals, registrations or filings, the failure of which
to have been obtained, received or made will not materially impair the effectiveness of the
Transactions or materially adversely affect the operations of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries,
taken as a whole, (b) will not violate any material Requirement of Law applicable to the Borrower
or any Material Subsidiary, (c) will not violate or result in a material default under any material
indenture, agreement or other instrument binding upon the Borrower or any Material Subsidiary or
their respective assets, or give rise to a right thereunder to require any material payment to be
made by the Borrower or any Material Subsidiary or give rise to a right of, or result in,
termination, cancelation or acceleration of any material obligation thereunder, and (d) will not
result in the creation or imposition of any Lien (other than a Lien permitted under Section 6.02)
on any asset of the Borrower or any Material Subsidiary.

          SECTION 3.04. Financial Condition; No Material Adverse Change. (a) The Borrower has
heretofore furnished to the Lenders its consolidated balance sheet and consolidated statements of
income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows (i) as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31,
2007, reported on by Deloitte & Touche LLP, independent public accountants, and (ii) as of and for
the fiscal quarters and the portions of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008, June 30, 2008, and
September 30, 2008 (and comparable period for the prior fiscal year). Such financial statements
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position and results of operations and cash
flows of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries as of such dates and for such periods in accordance with
GAAP consistently applied, subject to year end audit adjustments and the absence of footnotes in
the case of the statements referred to in clause (ii) above.

          (b) On and as of the Restatement Effective Date, no event, change or condition has occurred
that has had, or could reasonably be expected to have, a material adverse effect on the business,
operations, properties, assets, condition (financial or otherwise), liabilities (including
contingent liabilities) or prospects of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, since
December 31, 2007, provided that it is understood that the Lenders are satisfied with (and
no such material adverse effect shall be deemed to have occurred with respect to) the results of
operations and financial conditions set forth in the financial statements for the period ended
September 30, 2008, as set forth in the Borrower’s 10-Q filed with the SEC on October 28, 2008, and
the projected “Base Case” and “Downside Case” for fiscal year 2008 as set forth in the Lender
Discussion — Amendment Proposal dated December 17, 2008, delivered by the Borrower to the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders.

          SECTION 3.05. Properties. (a) The Borrower and each of the Material Subsidiaries
has good title to, or valid leasehold interests in, all its real and personal property, except for
any defects that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a
Material Adverse Effect.

          (b) The Borrower and each of the Material Subsidiaries owns, or is licensed to use, all
trademarks, tradenames, copyrights, patents and other intellectual property material to its
business, and

48

 

the use thereof by the Borrower and the Material Subsidiaries does not infringe upon the
rights of any other Person, except for any such infringements that, individually or in the
aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

          SECTION 3.06. Litigation and Environmental Matters. (a) There are no actions, suits
or proceedings by or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority pending against or, to the
knowledge of the Borrower or any Material Subsidiary, threatened against or affecting the Borrower
or any Material Subsidiary (i) as to which there is a reasonable likelihood of an adverse
determination and that, if adversely determined, could reasonably be expected, individually or in
the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect (other than the Disclosed Matters) or (ii)
that involve any of the Loan Documents or the Transactions.

          (b) Except for the Disclosed Matters and except with respect to any other matters that,
individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Effect, neither the Borrower nor any Material Subsidiary (i) has failed to comply with any
Environmental Law or to obtain, maintain or comply with any permit, license or other approval
required under any Environmental Law, (ii) has become subject to any Environmental Liability, (iii)
has received notice of any claim with respect to any Environmental Liability or (iv) knows of any
basis for any Environmental Liability.

          SECTION 3.07. Compliance with Laws and Agreements. The Borrower and each of the
Material Subsidiaries is in compliance with (a) all Requirements of Law applicable to it or its
property and (b) all indentures, agreements and other instruments binding upon it or its property,
except, in each of the cases of (a) and (b) above, where the failure to do so, individually or in
the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

          SECTION 3.08. Investment Company Status. Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary is
an “investment company” as defined in, or subject to regulation under, the Investment Company Act
of 1940.

          SECTION 3.09. Taxes. The Borrower and each of the Subsidiaries (a) has timely filed
or caused to be filed all Tax returns and reports required to have been filed, except to the extent
that failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, and
(b) has paid or caused to be paid all Taxes required to have been paid by it, except any Taxes that
are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings, provided that the Borrower or
such Subsidiary, as the case may be, has set aside on its books adequate reserves therefor and the
failure to pay such Taxes would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

          SECTION 3.10. ERISA. No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur
that, when taken together with all other such ERISA Events for which liability is reasonably
expected to occur, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

          SECTION 3.11. Disclosure. None of (i) the Borrower’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q
for the periods ended March 31, 2008, June 30, 2008, and September 30, 2008, its Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 (collectively, the “SEC Filings”),
and the other filings of the Borrower made with the SEC in 2008 and 2009 (but prior to the
Restatement Effective Date) nor (ii) any of the other reports, financial statements, certificates
or other information furnished by or on behalf of the Borrower to the Administrative Agent or any
Lender pursuant to any Loan Document or delivered thereunder (as modified or supplemented by other
information furnished by or on behalf of the Borrower to the Administrative Agent in connection
herewith), as of the date such disclosures are delivered, contains any material misstatement of
fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of
the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading,

49

 

provided that, with respect to projected financial information, the Borrower
represents only that such information was prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed by
it to be reasonable at the time delivered (unless otherwise updated subsequent thereto, in which
case such information was prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed by it to be
reasonable at the time updated).

          SECTION 3.12. Insurance. Schedule 3.12 sets forth a description of all
insurance maintained by or on behalf of the Loan Parties and the Material Subsidiaries as of the
Restatement Effective Date. As of the Restatement Effective Date, all premiums due in respect of
such insurance have been paid.

          SECTION 3.13. Security Interest in Collateral. The provisions of this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents create legal and valid Liens on all the Collateral in favor of the
Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and, for so long as UCC financing
statements or Deposit Account Control Agreements, as the case may be, with respect to such
Collateral have not been terminated by the Administrative Agent (or otherwise amended by the
Administrative Agent in a manner that adversely affects the Lien in favor of the Secured Parties
thereby perfected), such Liens constitute perfected and continuing Liens on the Collateral,
securing the Secured Obligations, enforceable against the applicable Loan Party and all third
parties, and having priority over all other Liens on the Collateral except in the case of Liens
permitted under clauses (ii) through (iv), (vi) and (xi) of Section 6.02, to the extent any such
Liens would have priority over the Liens in favor of the Administrative Agent pursuant to any
applicable law.

          SECTION 3.14. Labor Matters. As of the Restatement Effective Date, there are no
material strikes, lockouts or slowdowns or any other material labor disputes against the Borrower
or any Material Subsidiary pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower or any Material Subsidiary,
threatened or planned.

ARTICLE IV

Conditions

          SECTION 4.01. [Intentionally Omitted]

          SECTION 4.02. Each Credit Event. The obligation of each Lender to make a Loan on the
occasion of any Borrowing (other than a deemed Borrowing under Section 2.17(c) and an Overadvance
made under Section 2.04), and of the Issuing Bank to issue, amend, renew or extend any Letter of
Credit, is subject to the receipt by the Administrative Agent of the request therefor in accordance
herewith and to the satisfaction of the following conditions:

     (a) Other than the representation and warranty set forth in Section 3.04(b), the
representations and warranties of the Loan Parties set forth in the Loan Documents that are
qualified by materiality shall be true and correct and the representations and warranties
that are not so qualified shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of
the date of such Borrowing or the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of such
Letter of Credit, as the case may be, except to the extent such representations and
warranties expressly relate to an earlier date (in which case such representations and
warranties shall be true and correct as of such earlier date).

     (b) At the time of and immediately after giving effect to such Borrowing or the
issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of such Letter of Credit, as the case may be, no
Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

50

 

Each Borrowing (provided that a conversion or a continuation of a Borrowing shall not
constitute a “Borrowing” for purposes of this Section) and each issuance, amendment, renewal or
extension of a Letter of Credit shall be deemed to constitute a representation and warranty by the
Borrower on the date thereof as to the matters specified in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section.

ARTICLE V

Affirmative Covenants

          Until the Commitments have expired or been terminated and the principal of and interest on
each Loan and all fees, expenses and other amounts (other than contingent amounts not yet due)
payable under any Loan Document shall have been paid in full and all Letters of Credit shall have
expired or been terminated (or cash collateralized in an amount equal to 105% of the aggregate
undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit) and all LC Disbursements shall have been

          SECTION 5.01. Financial Statements; Borrowing Base and Other Information. The
Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent for prompt delivery to each Lender:

     (a) within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Borrower, the Borrower’s
audited consolidated balance sheet and audited consolidated statements of operations,
stockholders’ equity and cash flows as of the end of and for such year, and related notes
thereto, setting forth in each case in comparative form the figures for the previous fiscal
year, all reported on by Deloitte & Touche LLP or other independent public accountants of
recognized national standing (without a “going concern” or like qualification or exception
and without any qualification or exception as to the scope of such audit) to the effect that
such consolidated financial statements present fairly in all material respects the financial
condition and results of operations of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries on a consolidated
basis in accordance with GAAP consistently applied;

     (b) within 45 days after the end of each of the first three fiscal quarters of each
fiscal year of the Borrower, the Borrower’s unaudited consolidated balance sheet and
unaudited consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows as of
the end of and for such fiscal quarter and the then elapsed portion of the fiscal year,
setting forth in each case in comparative form the figures for the corresponding period or
periods of (or, in the case of the balance sheet, as of the end of) the previous fiscal
year, all certified by a Financial Officer as presenting fairly in all material respects the
financial condition and results of operations of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries on a
consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP consistently applied, subject to normal year-end
audit adjustments and the absence of footnotes;

     (c) concurrently with any delivery or deemed delivery of financial statements under
paragraph (a) or (b) above, a certificate of a Financial Officer substantially in the form
of Exhibit E (i) certifying as to whether a Default has occurred and, if a Default
has occurred, specifying the details thereof and any action taken or proposed to be taken
with respect thereto, (ii) setting forth reasonably detailed calculations of the financial
covenant (and the components thereof) contained in Section 6.12 and (iii) stating whether
any change in GAAP or in the application thereof has occurred since the later of the date of
the Borrower’s most recent audited financial statements referred to in Section 3.04 and the
date of the prior certificate delivered pursuant to this paragraph (c) indicating such a
change and, if any such change has occurred, specifying the effect of such change on the
financial statements accompanying such certificate;

51

 

     (d) not later than 90 days subsequent to the commencement of each fiscal year of
the Borrower, a detailed consolidated budget for such fiscal year (including a projected
consolidated balance sheet and consolidated statements of projected operations,
comprehensive income and cash flows as of the end of and for such fiscal year and setting
forth the assumptions used for purposes of preparing such budget) and, promptly when
available, any significant revisions of such budget;

     (e) as soon as available but in any event within 13 Business Days of the end of each
calendar month, as of the last day of the preceding calendar month, a Borrowing Base
Certificate and supporting information in connection therewith, together with any additional
reports with respect to the Borrowing Base as the Administrative Agent may reasonably
request. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, subsequent to
each date on which Excess Availability is less than the Threshold Amount (or if a Borrowing
or the issuance of a Letter of Credit would cause Excess Availability to fall below the
Threshold Amount), the Borrower shall not be permitted to make any additional Borrowings or
such Borrowing or request the issuance of additional Letters of Credit or such Letter of
Credit, as the case may be (provided that a conversion or a continuation of a
Borrowing shall not constitute a “Borrowing” for purposes of this sentence), unless the
Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent a Borrowing Base Certificate as of
a date no earlier than three Business Days prior to the date of such Borrowing or the
issuance of such Letter of Credit; provided, however, the Borrower shall not
be required to deliver a Borrowing Base Certificate pursuant to the second sentence of this
paragraph if Excess Availability shall have exceeded the Threshold Amount for a period of
five consecutive Business Days prior to the date of such Borrowing or the issuance of such
Letter of Credit;

     (f) concurrently with the delivery of each Borrowing Base Certificate, and at such
other times as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, all Borrowing Base
Supplemental Documentation for the month (or such shorter period as contemplated by clause
(e) of this Section) then ended;

     (g) promptly as reasonably practicable after the request therefor, such additional
information concerning the Accounts and Inventory of the Collateral Parties or adjustments
thereto as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent from time to time;

     (h) promptly after the same become publicly available, copies of all periodic and
other reports, proxy statements and other materials filed by the Borrower or any Subsidiary
with the SEC or with any national securities exchange, or distributed by the Borrower to the
holders of its Equity Interests generally, as the case may be;

     (i) promptly upon obtaining knowledge of any such event, circumstance or change, a
written notice of any event, circumstance or change that has occurred since the delivery of
the most recent Borrowing Base Certificate in accordance with the terms of this Agreement
that would materially reduce the aggregate amount of the Eligible Accounts or the Eligible
Inventory or result in a material portion of the Eligible Accounts ceasing to be Eligible
Accounts or a material portion of the Eligible Inventory ceasing to be Eligible Inventory;
and

     (j) promptly following any request therefor, such other information regarding the
operations, business affairs and financial condition of the Borrower or any Subsidiary, or
compliance with the terms of any Loan Document, as the Administrative Agent (on behalf of
any Lender) may reasonably request.

52

 

Information required to be delivered pursuant to Sections 5.01(a), (b) and (h) shall be deemed to
have been delivered on the date on which the Borrower provides notice to the Administrative Agent
that such information has been posted on the SEC website on the Internet at www.sec.gov, or through
a link on the Borrower’s website at www.usg.com, or at another website identified in such notice
and accessible by the Lenders without charge, provided that such notice may be included in
a certificate delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(c).

          SECTION 5.02. Notices of Material Events. The Borrower will furnish to the
Administrative Agent (for prompt distribution to each Lender through the Administrative Agent)
written notice promptly, but in any event within five Business Days of, when any of the Chief
Executive Officer, the President or the General Counsel of the Borrower or any Financial Officer
obtains actual knowledge of the following:

     (a) the occurrence of any Default;

     (b) the filing or commencement of any action, suit or proceeding by or before any
arbitrator or Governmental Authority against or, to the knowledge of a Financial Officer or
another executive officer of the Borrower or any Subsidiary, affecting the Borrower or any
Affiliate thereof that has a reasonable likelihood of being adversely determined, and, if
adversely determined, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect;

     (c) any Lien (other than Liens permitted by clauses (i) through (iv), (vi) or (xi) of
Section 6.02) or claim made or asserted against any of the Collateral;

     (d) the occurrence of any ERISA Event or any fact or circumstance that gives rise to a
reasonable expectation that any ERISA Event will occur that, in either case, alone or
together with any other ERISA Events that have occurred or are reasonably expected to occur,
could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect;

     (e) any change in the Borrower’s corporate credit rating by S&P or Moody’s, or any
notice from either such agency indicating its intent to effect such a change or to place the
credit facilities on a “CreditWatch” or “WatchList” or any similar list, in each case with
negative implications, or its cessation of, or its intent to cease, issuing a corporate
credit rating for the Borrower; and

     (f) any other development (including notice of any Environmental Liability) that
results in, or could reasonably be expected to result in, a Material Adverse Effect.

Each notice delivered under this Section shall be accompanied by a written statement of a Financial
Officer or other executive officer of the Borrower setting forth the details of the event or
development requiring such notice and any action taken or proposed to be taken with respect
thereto.

          SECTION 5.03. Existence; Conduct of Business. The Borrower will, and will cause each
Subsidiary to, do or cause to be done all things necessary to obtain, preserve, renew and keep in
full force and effect its legal existence and, except where the failure to do so could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, the rights, licenses, permits,
privileges, franchises, patents, copyrights, trademarks and trade names material to the conduct of
its business, provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit any merger, consolidation,
liquidation or dissolution permitted under Section 6.03.

          SECTION 5.04. Payment of Taxes. The Borrower will, and will cause each Subsidiary
to, pay its liabilities for Taxes, the amounts of which are material to the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries taken as a whole, before such liabilities shall become delinquent or in default,
except where (a) the

53

 

validity or amount thereof is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings, (b)
the Borrower or such Subsidiary has set aside on its books adequate reserves with respect thereto
in accordance with GAAP, (c) such contest effectively suspends collection of the contested
obligation and the enforcement of any Lien securing such obligation and (d) the failure to make
payment pending such contest could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Effect.

          SECTION 5.05. Maintenance of Properties. The Borrower will, and will cause each
Subsidiary to, keep and maintain all property used in the conduct of its business in good working
order and condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted, except for properties, the failure of which
to maintain, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

          SECTION 5.06. Insurance. (a) The Borrower will, and will cause each Material
Subsidiary to, maintain, with financially sound and reputable insurance companies, (i) insurance in
such amounts (with no greater risk retention) and against such risks as is (A) customarily
maintained by companies of established repute engaged in the same or similar businesses operating
in the same or similar locations and (B) considered adequate by the Borrower and (ii) all other
insurance as may be required by law, provided that self-insurance through any captive
insurance Subsidiary or through deductibles or copayments shall not be deemed a violation of this
covenant to the extent that companies engaged in similar businesses similarly self-insure. The
Borrower will furnish to the Lenders, upon the reasonable request of the Administrative Agent,
information in reasonable detail as to the insurance so maintained.

          (b) All insurance policies required under paragraph (a) of this Section 5.06, to the extent
such insurance policies insure any portion of the Collateral, shall name the Administrative Agent
(for the benefit of the Secured Parties) as an additional insured or as loss payee, as applicable,
and shall contain loss payable clauses or mortgagee clauses, through endorsements in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, that provide that (i) all proceeds
thereunder with respect to any Collateral shall be payable to the Administrative Agent and (ii)
such policy and loss payable or mortgagee clauses may be canceled, amended or terminated only upon
at least 30 days’ prior written notice given to the Administrative Agent.

          (c) If the Borrower or any Material Subsidiary shall fail to obtain any insurance as
required by paragraph (a) of this Section 5.06, the Administrative Agent may obtain such insurance
at the Borrower’s expense. By purchasing such insurance, the Administrative Agent shall not be
deemed to have waived any Default arising from the Borrower’s or such Material Subsidiary’s
failure to maintain such insurance.

          SECTION 5.07. Books and Records; Inspection Rights; Field Examinations; Inventory
Appraisals. (a) The Borrower will, and will cause each Subsidiary to, keep proper books of
record and account in which entries that are full, true and correct in all material respects are
made of all material dealings and transactions in relation to its business and activities. The
Borrower will, and will cause each Loan Party to, permit any representatives designated by the
Administrative Agent (who may be accompanied by a representative of any Lender at such Lender’s
expense), upon reasonable prior notice and during normal workings hours, periodically (but no more
frequently than annually, except if an Event of Default shall be continuing), to visit and inspect
its properties, to examine and make extracts from its books and records, and to discuss its
affairs, finances and condition with its officers and independent accountants.

          (b) The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to conduct, at its reasonable discretion, on
reasonable prior notice and during normal working hours, periodic field examinations of the books
and records relating to the Accounts of the Collateral Parties and the Inventory of the Collateral
Parties, in each case to ensure the adequacy of the Collateral that constitutes the Borrowing Base
and the related

54

 

reporting and control systems; provided, however, that so long as no Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, (x) if no Loans are then outstanding hereunder, the
Administrative Agent shall be limited in any twelve-calendar-month period to one such field
examination and (y) if any Loans are then outstanding hereunder, then the Administrative Agent
shall be entitled to two such field examinations during any twelve-calendar-month period.

          (c) At any time that the Administrative Agent requests, each of the Collateral Parties will
provide the Administrative Agent with appraisals or updates thereof of its Inventory from an
appraiser selected and engaged by the Administrative Agent, and prepared on a basis satisfactory
to the Administrative Agent, and such appraisals or updates, as the case may be, will include
information required by applicable law and regulations; provided, however, that
(unless the Borrower otherwise requests in writing to the Administrative Agent that additional
appraisals of Inventory be conducted in the relevant twelve-calendar-month period) so long as no
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (x) if no Loans are then outstanding hereunder,
the Administrative Agent shall be limited in any twelve-calendar-month period to one such
appraisal and (y) if any Loans are then outstanding hereunder, then the Administrative Agent shall
be entitled to two such appraisals during any twelve-calendar-month period. Each such appraisal
shall be at the sole expense of the Collateral Parties.

          (d) The Borrower acknowledges that the Administrative Agent, after exercising its rights of
inspection, field examination or appraisal pursuant to this Section 5.07, may prepare and
distribute to the Lenders certain Reports pertaining to the Loan Parties’ assets for internal use
by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders.

          SECTION 5.08. Compliance with Laws. The Borrower will, and will cause each
Subsidiary to, comply with all Requirements of Law with respect to it or its property, except where
non-compliance could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect or where the
necessity of compliance therewith is contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings.

          SECTION 5.09. Use of Proceeds and Letters of Credit. The proceeds of the Loans will
be used only to finance general working capital needs and for other general corporate purposes
(including acquisitions), in each case of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries. No part of the
proceeds of any Loan will be used, whether directly or indirectly, for any purpose that entails a
violation of any of the Regulations of the Board, including Regulations T, U and X. Letters of
Credit will be used only for general corporate purposes.

          SECTION 5.10. Further Assurances. (a) The Borrower shall cause (i) (A) each
Domestic Material Subsidiary formed or acquired on or after the date of this Agreement in
compliance with the terms of this Agreement and (B) each Subsidiary that otherwise qualifies as a
Domestic Material Subsidiary on or after the date of this Agreement, in each case, to become a Loan
Party by executing a supplement to the Guarantee Agreement in the form attached to the Guarantee
Agreement and (ii) (A) each Domestic Material Subsidiary that is a wholly-owned Subsidiary and
formed or acquired on or after the date of this Agreement in compliance with the terms of this
Agreement and (B) each Subsidiary that otherwise qualifies as a Domestic Material Subsidiary that
is a wholly-owned Subsidiary on or after the date of this Agreement, in each case, to become a
Collateral Party by executing a supplement to the Security Agreement in the form attached to the
Security Agreement, provided that the terms of this Section 5.10(a) shall not be required
to be satisfied with respect to any Subsidiary (x) that is subject to any legal or any contractual
restriction (to the extent such restriction does not violate any of the terms of any Loan Document)
preventing or prohibiting it from satisfying such requirement or (y) with respect to which the
Administrative Agent determines that the cost of satisfaction of such requirement with respect
thereto exceeds the value afforded thereby (and any such Subsidiary that does not so satisfy the
terms of this Section 5.10(a) shall not become a Loan Party and/or a Collateral Party hereunder).

55

 

          (b) Subject to the limitations set forth in the Security Agreement, the Borrower will, and
will cause each Loan Party to, execute any and all further documents, financing statements,
agreements and instruments, and take all such further actions (including the filing and recording
of financing statements and other documents), that may be required under any applicable law, or
that the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders may reasonably request, to carry out the
terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to ensure perfection and
priority of the Liens created or intended to be created by the Collateral Documents, all at the
expense of the Loan Parties. The Borrower also agrees to provide to the Administrative Agent, from
time to time upon request, evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent as to the
perfection and priority of the Liens created or intended to be created by the Collateral Documents.

          SECTION 5.11. Control Agreements; Collateral Access Agreements. (a) The Borrower
will, and will cause each applicable Collateral Party to, (a) enter into the Deposit Account
Control Agreements required to be provided pursuant to Section 7.01 of the Security Agreement and
(b) open the Collection Account with the Administrative Agent, in each case no later than the date
that is 60 days (or such longer period as the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, may
agree) after the Restatement Effective Date. In connection with the foregoing, the Borrower shall
deliver to the Administrative Agent a favorable written opinion (addressed to the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders and dated as of the date on which the obligations set forth in this Section
5.11 have been satisfied) of Jones Day, counsel for the Borrower and the Domestic Material
Subsidiaries, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and
covering such customary matters relating to such Deposit Account Control Agreements governed by the
laws of, or (solely with respect to the opinion relating to perfection of a security interest)
entered into by a depositary bank whose jurisdiction (for purposes of Section 9-304 of the UCC and
as designated in the applicable Deposit Account Control Agreement) is in a State in which, Jones
Day is then licensed to practice.

          (b) The Borrower will, and will cause each applicable Collateral Party to, use its
commercially reasonable efforts to enter into Collateral Access Agreements required to be provided
pursuant to Section 4.05 of the Security Agreement no later than the date that is 90 days (or such
longer period as the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, may agree) after the
Restatement Effective Date.

ARTICLE VI

Negative Covenants

          Until the Commitments have expired or been terminated and the principal of and interest on
each Loan and all fees, expenses and other amounts payable (other than contingent amounts not yet
due) under any Loan Document have been paid in full and all Letters of Credit have expired or been
terminated (or cash collateralized in an amount equal to 105% of the aggregate undrawn amount of
all outstanding Letters of Credit) and all LC Disbursements shall have been reimbursed, the
Borrower covenants and agrees with the Lenders that:

          SECTION 6.01. Indebtedness. (a) Neither the Borrower nor any of the Subsidiaries
shall directly or indirectly create, incur, assume or otherwise become or remain directly or
indirectly liable with respect to any Indebtedness, the incurrence of which would cause the
Borrower to violate the financial covenant set forth in Section 6.12 (giving effect to such
incurrence of Indebtedness on a pro forma basis as if such incurrence (and the application of any
proceeds therefrom, including the repayment of any Indebtedness with the proceeds of the
Indebtedness being so incurred) occurred on the first day of the applicable four fiscal quarter
period ended immediately prior to such incurrence) to the extent such Section is in effect as of
the date of such determination (or would be in effect after giving effect to such

56

 

incurrence of Indebtedness). It is understood and agreed that any Indebtedness incurred under
Section 6.01(a) of the Existing Credit Agreement, to the extent such Indebtedness was, at the time
of such incurrence, permitted to be so incurred thereunder, shall be deemed to have been incurred
under, and in compliance with, this Section 6.01(a) as of the Restatement Effective Date.

          (b) Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries shall at any time permit the sum,
without duplication, of (i) all Indebtedness of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries secured by Liens
plus (ii) all Indebtedness of the Subsidiaries (including Subsidiaries acquired after the
Effective Date) to exceed $500,000,000 at any time outstanding.

          (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in paragraph (b) of this Section 6.01, the
following Indebtedness of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries (including Subsidiaries acquired after
the Effective Date) shall not be prohibited by Section 6.01(b) and shall not be included in
calculating the levels of Indebtedness permitted under Section 6.01(b) regardless of whether such
Indebtedness is secured as permitted by Section 6.02:

     (i) (x) Indebtedness created under the Loan Documents and (y) other
Indebtedness existing on the Effective Date and set forth in Schedule 6.01
and extensions, renewals and replacements of any such Indebtedness, provided
that such extending, renewal or replacement Indebtedness (A) shall not be
Indebtedness of an obligor that was not an obligor with respect to the original
Indebtedness being extended, renewed or replaced (other than in the case of
Guarantees otherwise permitted by clause (iii) of this Section 6.01(c)), (B) shall
not be in a principal amount that exceeds the principal amount of the Indebtedness
being extended, renewed or replaced (plus any accrued but unpaid interest
and redemption premium thereon), (C) shall not have an earlier maturity date or
shorter weighted average life to maturity than the Indebtedness being extended,
renewed or replaced and (D) shall be subordinated to the Obligations to the same
extent as the Indebtedness being extended, renewed or replaced, if applicable;

     (ii) Indebtedness of the Borrower to any Subsidiary and of any Subsidiary to
the Borrower or any other Subsidiary, provided that (A) Indebtedness of any
Subsidiary (other than a Loan Party) owing to any Loan Party shall be subject to
Section 6.04 and (B) Indebtedness of the Borrower to any Subsidiary or of any other
Loan Party to any other Subsidiary (other than a Loan Party) shall be subordinated
to the Obligations on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent;

     (iii) Guarantees by the Borrower of Indebtedness of any Subsidiary, and by any
Subsidiary of Indebtedness of the Borrower or any other Subsidiary, provided
that (A) the Indebtedness so Guaranteed shall not be prohibited by this Section
(other than clause (c)(ii)) and (B) Guarantees by any Loan Party of Indebtedness of
any Subsidiary (other than a Loan Party) shall be subject to Section 6.04;

     (iv) (A) Indebtedness of the Borrower or any Subsidiary incurred to finance the
acquisition, construction or improvement of any fixed or capital assets, including
Capital Lease Obligations and any Indebtedness that is assumed by the Borrower or
any Subsidiary or that remains Indebtedness of an acquired entity in connection with
the acquisition of any such assets or secured by a Lien on any such assets prior to
the acquisition thereof, provided that such Indebtedness is incurred prior to or
within 90 days after such acquisition or the completion of such construction or
improvement, and (B) extensions, renewals and replacements of any such Indebtedness
so long as the outstanding principal amount of such extensions, renewals and
replacements does not exceed the principal of the Indebtedness being extended,
renewed or replaced (plus any

57

 

accrued but unpaid interest and premium thereon), provided that the
aggregate principal amount of Indebtedness permitted by this clause (iv) incurred
after the Effective Date shall not exceed $100,000,000 at any time outstanding;

     (v) Indebtedness in respect of Swap Agreements permitted by Section 6.06; and

     (vi) Indebtedness in respect of any financing or capital lease financing
relating to the Borrower’s or the Subsidiaries’ sea vessels in an amount not to
exceed $75,000,000 at any time outstanding.

          SECTION 6.02. Liens. The Borrower will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to,
create, incur, assume or permit to exist any Lien on any property or asset now owned or hereafter
acquired by it, or assign or sell any income or revenues (including accounts receivable) or rights
in respect of any thereof, except:

     (i) Liens created pursuant to any Loan Document;

     (ii) Permitted Encumbrances;

     (iii) any Lien on any property or asset of the Borrower or any Subsidiary
existing on the Effective Date and set forth in Schedule 6.02,
provided that (A) such Lien shall not apply to any other property or asset
of the Borrower or any Subsidiary (other than assets financed by the same financing
source pursuant to the same financing scheme in the ordinary course of business) and
(B) such Lien shall secure only those obligations that it secured on the Effective
Date and extensions, renewals and replacements thereof so long as the principal
amount of such extensions, renewals and replacements does not exceed the principal
amount of the obligations being extended, renewed or replaced (plus any
accrued but unpaid interest and premium thereon);

     (iv) any Lien existing on any property or asset prior to the acquisition
thereof by the Borrower or any Subsidiary or existing on any property or asset of
any Person that becomes a Subsidiary after the Effective Date prior to the time such
Person becomes a Subsidiary, provided that (A) such Lien is not created in
contemplation of or in connection with such acquisition or such Person becoming a
Subsidiary, as the case may be, (B) such Lien shall not apply to any other property
or asset of the Borrower or any Subsidiary (other than assets financed by the same
financing source pursuant to the same financing scheme in the ordinary course of
business) and (C) such Lien shall secure only those obligations that it secures on
the date of such acquisition or the date such Person becomes a Subsidiary, as the
case may be, and extensions, renewals and replacements thereof so long as the
principal amount of such extensions, renewals and replacements does not exceed the
principal amount of the obligations being extended, renewed or replaced
(plus any accrued but unpaid interest and premium thereon);

     (v) Liens on fixed or capital assets acquired, constructed or improved
(including any such assets made the subject of a Capital Lease Obligation incurred)
by the Borrower or any Subsidiary after the Effective Date, provided that
(A) such Liens secure Indebtedness incurred to finance such acquisition,
construction or improvement and permitted by clause (iv)(A) of Section 6.01(c) or to
extend, renew or replace such Indebtedness and permitted by clause (iv)(B) of
Section 6.01(c), (B) such Liens and the Indebtedness secured thereby are incurred
prior to or within 90 days after such acquisition or the completion of such
construction or improvement (provided that this clause (B) shall not apply
to any Indebtedness permitted by clause (iv)(B) of Section 6.01(c) or any Lien

58

 

securing such Indebtedness), (C) the Indebtedness secured thereby does not
exceed the lesser of the cost of acquiring, constructing or improving such fixed or
capital asset or, in the case of Indebtedness permitted by clause (iv)(A) of Section
6.01(c), its fair market value at the time such security interest attaches, and in
any event, the aggregate principal amount of such Indebtedness does not exceed
$100,000,000 at any time outstanding and (D) such Liens shall not apply to any other
property or assets of the Borrower or any Subsidiary (except assets financed by the
same financing source pursuant to the same financing scheme in the ordinary course
of business);

under Section 4-208 of the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in the relevant

outstanding;

     (ix) Liens existing or deemed to exist securing the ship financing Indebtedness
described in Section 6.01(c)(vi) in an amount not to exceed $75,000,000,
provided that such Liens shall apply only to those assets and rights of the
type pledged under the Vessel Loan Agreement and the collateral documents entered
into in connection therewith (as the Vessel Loan Agreement and such other documents
are in effect on the Restatement Effective Date) and shall not apply to any other
property or asset of the Borrower or any Subsidiary;

     (x) Liens not otherwise permitted by this Section to the extent that the
aggregate outstanding principal amount of the obligations secured thereby does not
at any time exceed $100,000,000; and

     (xi) Liens created by sales contracts documenting unconsummated asset
dispositions permitted hereby, provided that such Liens attach only to those
assets that are the subject of the applicable sales contract.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Liens permitted pursuant to this Section 6.02 may at any
time attach to any Collateral, other than those permitted under clauses (i) through (iv), (vi) and
(xi) of this Section 6.02.

          SECTION 6.03. Fundamental Changes. (a) The Borrower will not, and will not permit
any Material Subsidiary to, merge into or consolidate with any other Person, or permit any other
Person to merge into or consolidate with it, or liquidate or dissolve, except that, if at the time
thereof and immediately after giving effect thereto no Default shall have occurred and be
continuing (i) any Person may merge into the Borrower in a transaction in which the Borrower is the
surviving corporation and (ii) any Person (other than the Borrower) may merge into any Subsidiary
in a transaction in which the surviving entity is a Subsidiary and (if any party to such merger is
a Restricted Collateral Party, a Collateral Party or a Loan Party) is a Restricted Collateral
Party, a Collateral Party or a Loan Party, as the case may be, provided that any such
merger involving a Person that is not a wholly-owned Subsidiary immediately prior to such merger
shall not be permitted unless also permitted by Section 6.04.

59

 

          (b) The Borrower will not, and will not permit any Material Subsidiary to, engage to any
material extent in any business other than businesses of the type conducted by the Borrower and
the Subsidiaries on the Effective Date and businesses reasonably related thereto.

          (c) The Borrower will not, and will not permit any other Loan Party, to sell, transfer,
lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all its assets, provided that this
clause (c) shall not prohibit any such sale, transfer, lease or other disposition (i) by any
Collateral Party to any other Collateral Party, (ii) by any wholly-owned Subsidiary (other than a
Collateral Party) to the Borrower or any other wholly-owned Subsidiary or (iii) of assets the
aggregate fair value of which, determined as of the date of such sale, transfer, lease or other
disposition and when combined with the aggregate fair value of all assets sold, transferred,
leased or otherwise disposed of pursuant to this clause (iii) (in each case, determined as of the
date of the sale, transfer, lease or other disposition of the applicable assets), does not exceed
15% of the consolidated assets of the Loan Parties as determined on such date. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, (A) no Restricted Collateral Party may issue any Equity Interests (other than to
the Borrower or to another wholly-owned Subsidiary), (B) neither the Borrower nor any other
Subsidiary may sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any Equity Interests of any Restricted
Collateral Party (other than to the Borrower or to any wholly-owned Subsidiary) except in a
transaction pursuant to clause (iii) of this paragraph (c) in which 100% of the Equity Interests
of such Restricted Collateral Party are sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of and (C) neither
the Borrower nor any Restricted Collateral Party may sell, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of
all or substantially all its assets (other than to the Borrower or to another Restricted
Collateral Party) except in a transaction pursuant to clause (iii) of this paragraph (c).

          SECTION 6.04. Investments. The Borrower will not, and will not permit any Loan Party
to, purchase or acquire (including pursuant to any merger with such Person) any Equity Interests in
or evidences of Indebtedness or other securities (including any option, warrant or other right to
acquire any of the foregoing) of, make any loans or advances to, or Guarantee any Indebtedness of,
any other Person (other than a Loan Party), or purchase or otherwise acquire (in one transaction or
a series of transactions) any assets of any other Person constituting a business unit, or incur an
obligation (contingent or otherwise) to do any of the foregoing (each, an “Investment”), at
any time when (x) the Excess Availability is less than the Threshold Amount at such time or (y) a
Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, provided that, without limiting
the foregoing, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, the
Borrower may make Investments in an aggregate amount (each such Investment being valued at the
amount determined therefor at the date made net of any return of capital or sale proceeds actually
received in cash (which shall not exceed the cost of such Investment) in respect of such
Investment) not to exceed $150,000,000 at any time outstanding; provided further that the
Borrower shall not, nor shall it permit any Loan Party to, make an Investment that would otherwise
be permitted by this Section if, in the Borrower’s reasonable business judgment (taking into
account, among other things, the likelihood that the Borrower or any other Loan Party would be
required to make a cash payment in respect of such Investment as well as alternate sources of cash
(other than proceeds from Borrowings hereunder) that are reasonably likely to be available for the
funding of such Investment at the time a cash payment in respect of such Investment would become
due), such Investment (when taken together with each other Investment made pursuant to this Section
6.04, excluding clauses (a) through (j) of this Section 6.04) would result in Excess Availability
being less than $50,000,000 (after giving effect to any cash payments, and any Borrowings
hereunder, made (or to be made) in connection with such Investments). Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the following Investments shall be deemed not to be covered or restricted by this
Section:

     (a) Investments existing on the Restatement Effective Date and set forth on
Schedule 6.04 and Permitted Investments;

60

 

     (b) payroll, travel and similar advances to cover matters that are expected at the
time of such advances ultimately to be treated as expenses of the Borrower or any Subsidiary
for accounting purposes and that are made in the ordinary course of business;

     (c) Investments received in connection with the bankruptcy or reorganization of, or
settlement of delinquent accounts and disputes with, customers and suppliers, in each case
in the ordinary course of business;

     (d) Investments in the form of Swap Agreements permitted by Section 6.06;

     (e) Investments of any Person existing at the time such Person becomes a Subsidiary or
consolidates or merges with the Borrower or any Subsidiary so long as such Investments were
not made in contemplation of such Person becoming a Subsidiary or of such consolidation or
merger;

     (f) Investments resulting from pledges or deposits described in clause (c) or (d) of
the definition of the term “Permitted Encumbrance”;

     (g) Investments received in connection with the disposition of any asset permitted by
Section 6.03(c);

     (h) receivables or other trade payables owing to the Borrower or a Subsidiary if
created or acquired in the ordinary course of business and payable or dischargeable in
accordance with customary trade terms, provided that such trade terms may include such
concessionary trade terms as the Borrower or any Subsidiary deems reasonable under the
circumstances;

     (i) Investments in or to any Loan Party; and

     (j) Investments to the extent funded with the proceeds of any substantially concurrent
issuance of Qualified Equity Interests to the extent that such issuance does not result in a
Change in Control.

          SECTION 6.05. Sale and Leaseback Transactions. Neither the Borrower nor any of the
Subsidiaries shall become liable, directly or by way of a Guarantee, with respect to any lease,
whether or not such lease results in a Capital Lease Obligation, of any property (whether real or
personal or mixed) whether now owned or hereafter acquired, that the Borrower or any Subsidiary has
sold or transferred or is to sell or transfer to any other Person after the Effective Date (a
“Sale and Leaseback Transaction”), provided that the Borrower or a Subsidiary may
enter into a Sale and Leaseback Transaction if (a) at the time of such Sale and Leaseback
Transaction, no Event of Default is continuing, (b) the proceeds from the sale of the subject
property shall be at least equal to 80% of its fair market value and (c) if such Sale and Leaseback
Transaction results in a Capital Lease Obligation, such Capital Lease Obligation is not prohibited
by Section 6.01 and any Lien made the subject of such Capital Lease Obligation is not prohibited by
Section 6.02.

          SECTION 6.06. Swap Agreements. The Borrower will not, and will not permit any
Subsidiary to, enter into any Swap Agreement for speculative purposes.

          SECTION 6.07. Restricted Payments. (a) The Borrower will not, and will not permit
any Subsidiary to, declare or make, or agree to pay or make, directly or indirectly, any Restricted
Payment, or incur any obligation (contingent or otherwise) to do so, if (i) a Default has occurred
and is continuing or would result therefrom or (ii) such Restricted Payment is not at the time
permitted by a Requirement of Law or any agreement or instrument applicable to the Borrower or such
Subsidiary, provided that this paragraph (a) shall not restrict dividends or similar
distributions payable solely in

61

 

Qualified Equity Interests or made by Subsidiaries to wholly-owned Subsidiaries or to the
Borrower (it being understood that this proviso shall not permit any such dividend or similar
distribution (A) from a Domestic Subsidiary to a Foreign Subsidiary or (B) in the case of any such
dividend or distribution comprised of Collateral, from a Collateral Party to an entity that is not
a Collateral Party).

          (b) Notwithstanding anything in Section 6.07(a) to the contrary, the aggregate amount of
Restricted Payments permitted to be made (or with respect to which obligations (contingent or
otherwise) to do so are permitted to be incurred) by the Borrower and the Subsidiaries pursuant to
this Section 6.07 (excluding any Restricted Payments made (or with respect to which obligations
(contingent or otherwise) to do so have been entered into) by the Borrower or any Subsidiary at
any time when (x) Excess Availability at such time is equal to or greater than the Threshold
Amount, (y) the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio at such time, determined for the period of four
consecutive fiscal quarters most recently ended at or prior to such time, is equal to or greater
than 1.10 to 1.00 and (z) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) shall not
exceed (i) $25,000,000 in any calendar year and (ii) $50,000,000 in the aggregate for the term of
this Agreement, provided that this paragraph (b) shall not restrict dividends or similar
distributions payable solely in Qualified Equity Interests or made by Subsidiaries to wholly-owned
Subsidiaries or to the Borrower (it being understood that this proviso shall not permit any such
dividend or similar distribution (A) from a Domestic Subsidiary to a Foreign Subsidiary or (B) in
the case of any such dividend or distribution comprised of Collateral, from a Collateral Party to
an entity that is not a Collateral Party).

          SECTION 6.08. Transactions with Affiliates. The Borrower shall not, and shall not
suffer or permit any Material Subsidiary to, enter into any transaction with any Affiliate (other
than the Borrower or a wholly-owned Subsidiary) of the Borrower, except transactions (a) entered
into in good faith and (b) at prices and on terms and conditions not less favorable to the Borrower
or such Subsidiary than could be obtained on an arm’s-length basis from unrelated third parties.

          SECTION 6.09. Restrictive Agreements. The Borrower will not, and will not permit any
Material Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, enter into, incur or permit to exist any agreement
or other arrangement that prohibits, restricts or imposes any condition upon (a) the ability of the
Borrower or any Material Subsidiary to create, incur or permit to exist any Lien upon any of its
property or assets or (b) the ability of any Material Subsidiary to pay dividends or other
distributions with respect to any of its Equity Interests or to make or repay loans or advances to
the Borrower or any other Subsidiary or to Guarantee Indebtedness of the Borrower or any other
Subsidiary, provided that (i) the foregoing shall not apply to restrictions and conditions
imposed by (A) law or (B) any Loan Document, (ii) the foregoing shall not apply to restrictions or
conditions existing on the Effective Date and identified on Schedule 6.09 (but shall apply
to any extension or renewal of, or any amendment, modification or replacement expanding the scope
of, any such restriction or condition), (iii) the foregoing shall not apply to customary
restrictions and conditions contained in agreements relating to the sale of a Subsidiary or any
assets pending such sale, provided that such restrictions and conditions apply only to the
Subsidiary or assets that is or are to be sold and such sale is permitted hereunder, (iv) paragraph
(a) of the foregoing shall not apply to restrictions or conditions imposed by any agreement
relating to secured Indebtedness permitted by this Agreement if such restrictions or conditions
apply only to the property or assets securing such Indebtedness, (v) paragraph (a) of the foregoing
shall not apply to customary provisions in leases and other contracts restricting the assignment
thereof, (vi) paragraph (a) of the foregoing shall not apply to any existing or future joint
venture agreement that restricts the ability of any party to such agreement to create, incur or
permit a Lien on the equity interests in the joint venture, provided that the Borrower and
any Material Subsidiary party to such agreement collectively own no more than 81 percent of the
equity interests in such joint venture and (vii) paragraph (a) of the foregoing shall not apply to
restrictions or conditions imposed by any agreement if the terms of such agreement expressly permit
the creation, incurrence and existence of Liens to secure Indebtedness or other Secured Obligations
under this

62

 

Agreement and extensions, renewals and replacements of any such Indebtedness or other Secured
Obligations.

          SECTION 6.10. Amendment of Material Documents. The Borrower will not, and will not
permit any Subsidiary to, amend, modify, waive, terminate or release its certificate of
incorporation, by-laws or other organizational documents, if the effect of such amendment,
modification, waiver, termination or release is materially adverse to the Borrower and the
Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or the Lenders.

          SECTION 6.11. Changes in Fiscal Periods. Without the prior consent of the
Administrative Agent, the Borrower will neither (a) permit its fiscal year or the fiscal year of
any Subsidiary to end on a day other than December 31, nor (b) change its method of determining
fiscal quarters.

          SECTION 6.12. Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio. If, at any time, Excess Availability is
less than the greater of (a) $50,000,000 and (b) 15% of the aggregate Revolving Commitments at such
time, then the Borrower will not permit the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio at such time, determined
for the period of four consecutive fiscal quarters most recently ended at or prior to such time, to
be less than 1.10 to 1.00.

ARTICLE VII

Events of Default

          If any of the following events (any such event, an “Event of Default”) shall occur:

     (a) the Borrower shall fail to pay any principal of any Loan or any reimbursement
obligation in respect of any LC Disbursement when and as the same shall become due and
payable, whether at the due date thereof or at a date fixed for prepayment thereof or
otherwise;

     (b) the Borrower shall fail to pay any interest on any Loan or any fee or any other
amount (other than an amount referred to in paragraph (a) of this Article) payable under any
Loan Document, when and as the same shall become due and payable, and such failure shall
continue unremedied for a period of five Business Days;

     (c) any representation or warranty made or deemed made by or on behalf of the Borrower
or any Material Subsidiary in or in connection with the Existing Credit Agreement (to the
extent made prior to the Restatement Effective Date and not waived), any Loan Document or
any amendment or modification thereof or waiver thereunder, or in any report, certificate,
financial statement or other document furnished pursuant to or in connection with any Loan
Document or any amendment or modification thereof or waiver thereunder that is qualified by
materiality shall prove to have been incorrect or any representation or warranty that is not
so qualified shall prove to have been incorrect in any material respect when made or deemed
made;

     (d) the Borrower shall fail to observe or perform any covenant, condition or agreement
contained in Section 5.02, 5.03 (with respect to the existence of the Borrower) or 5.09 or
in Article VI of this Agreement or any Collateral Party shall fail to observe or perform any
covenant, condition or agreement contained in Section 4.01(j) or Article VII, in each case
of the Security Agreement; provided, however, that, without limiting the
effect of any other Default or Event of Default under this Article VII, any Default arising
under Section 5.02 (or any Default arising under a failure of the conditions set forth in
Section 4.02 arising solely as a result of a

63

 

failure to comply with Section 5.02) shall be deemed to be cured upon the giving of
such notice by the Borrower;

     (e) the Borrower or any other Loan Party shall fail to observe or perform any
covenant, condition or agreement contained in any Loan Document (other than those specified
in paragraph (a), (b) or (d) of this Article), and, except as otherwise provided in such

thereof from any Lender or the Administrative Agent to the Borrower;

     (f) the Borrower or any Subsidiary shall fail to make any payment (whether of
principal or interest and regardless of amount) in respect of any Material Indebtedness,

grace periods;

     (g) any event or condition occurs (including the triggering of any change in control
or similar event with respect to the Borrower) (i) that results in any Material Indebtedness
becoming due prior to its scheduled maturity or that enables or permits (with all applicable
grace periods having expired, provided that, during the applicable grace period, no
additional consideration is paid or additional rights are granted in respect of such
Material Indebtedness) the holder or holders of any Material Indebtedness or any trustee or
agent on its or their behalf to cause any Material Indebtedness to become due or to require
the prepayment, repurchase, redemption or defeasance thereof, prior to its scheduled
maturity or (ii) the effect of which event or condition is to cause, or to permit the holder
or holders of any Material Indebtedness (or a trustee or agent on behalf of such holder or
holders) to require, with the giving of notice if required, any Material Indebtedness to be
repurchased, prepaid, defeased or redeemed (automatically or otherwise), prior to its stated
maturity, provided that this paragraph (g) shall not apply to secured Indebtedness
that becomes due as a result of the sale, transfer or other disposition (including as a
result of a casualty or condemnation event) of the property or assets securing such
Indebtedness (to the extent such sale, transfer or other disposition is not prohibited under
this Agreement);

     (h) an involuntary proceeding shall be commenced or an involuntary petition shall be
filed seeking (i) liquidation, reorganization or other relief in respect of the Borrower or

hereafter in effect or (ii) the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian, sequestrator,
conservator or similar official for the Borrower or any Material Subsidiary or for a
substantial part of their assets, and, in any such case, such proceeding or petition shall
continue undismissed or unstayed for 60 days or an order or decree approving or ordering any
of the foregoing shall be entered;

     (i) the Borrower or any Material Subsidiary shall (i) voluntarily commence any
proceeding or file any petition seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief under

hereafter in effect, (ii) consent to the institution of, or fail to contest in a timely and
appropriate manner, any proceeding or petition described in paragraph (h) of this Article,
(iii) apply for or consent to the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian,
sequestrator, conservator or similar official for the Borrower or any Material Subsidiary or
for a substantial part of their assets, (iv) file an answer admitting the material
allegations of a petition filed against it in any such proceeding, (v) make a general
assignment for the benefit of creditors or (vi) take any action for the purpose of effecting
any of the foregoing;

     (j) the Borrower or any Material Subsidiary shall become unable, admit in writing its
inability or fail generally to pay its debts as they become due;

64

 

     (k) one or more judgments for the payment of money in an aggregate amount in excess of
$50,000,000 shall be rendered against the Borrower, any Material Subsidiary or any
combination thereof (provided that in determining whether the foregoing threshold is
satisfied, there shall be excluded any portion of such judgments that is fully covered by a
third party insurance company rated not less that “B++” by A.M. Best (less any applicable
deductible) and as to which the insurer has not disputed, in writing, its responsibility to
cover such judgment) and the same shall remain unpaid or undischarged for a period of 30
consecutive days during which execution shall not be effectively stayed, or any action shall
be legally taken by a judgment creditor to attach or levy upon any assets of the Borrower or
any Material Subsidiary to enforce any such judgment;

     (l) an ERISA Event shall have occurred that, in the opinion of the Required Lenders,
when taken together with all other ERISA Events that have occurred, could reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect;

     (m) any Loan Document shall for any reason be asserted by the Borrower not to be a
legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower;

     (n) a Change in Control shall occur;

     (o) the Guarantee Agreement shall fail to remain in full force or effect or any action
shall be taken by any Loan Party to discontinue or to assert the invalidity or
unenforceability of the Guarantee Agreement, or any Loan Party shall deny that it has any
further liability under the Guarantee Agreement to which it is a party, or shall give notice
to such effect; or

     (p) any Collateral Document shall for any reason fail to create a valid and perfected
first priority security interest in any Collateral purported to be covered thereby, except
as permitted by the terms of any Collateral Document, or any Collateral Document shall fail
to remain in full force or effect or any action shall be taken to discontinue or to assert
the invalidity or unenforceability of any Collateral Document,

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

ARTICLE VIII

The Administrative Agent

          Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent
as its agent and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf, including
execution of the other Loan Documents, and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the
Administrative Agent by the terms of the Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as
are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the
Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, and the Borrower shall not have rights as a
third party beneficiary of any of such provisions.

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

          The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set
forth in the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the
Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of
whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any
duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary
rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is
required to exercise in writing as directed by the Required Lenders (or such other number or
percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary or believed by the Administrative Agent in good
faith to be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 2.05(j) or Section 9.02), and
(c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have
any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating
to the Borrower or any Subsidiary that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as
Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not
be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the
Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the
circumstances as provided in Section 2.05(j) or Section 9.02 or believed by the Administrative
Agent in good faith to be necessary) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or wilful
misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless
and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or a Lender,
and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire
into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document,
(ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document 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 or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the
validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement,
instrument or document, (v) the creation, perfection or priority of Liens on the Collateral or the
existence of the Collateral, or (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or
elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be
delivered to the Administrative Agent.

          The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for
relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other
writing (including any electronic message, Adobe pdf file, Internet or intranet website posting or
other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent or otherwise
authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made
to it orally or by

66

 

telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any
liability for relying thereon. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be
counsel for the Loan Parties), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall
not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such
counsel, accountants or experts.

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

          In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the
issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be
fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent may presume
that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or the Issuing Bank unless the Administrative
Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or the Issuing Bank prior to the
making of such Loan or the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of such Letter of Credit.

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

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

67

 

          Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, none of the agents listed on the cover page
hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under any Loan Document, except in its
capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, a Lender or the Issuing Bank hereunder.

          Each Lender hereby agrees that (a) it has requested a copy of each Report prepared by or on
behalf of the Administrative Agent; (b) the Administrative Agent (i) makes no representation or
warranty, express or implied, as to the completeness or accuracy of any Report or any of the
information contained therein or any inaccuracy or omission contained in or relating to a Report
and (ii) shall not be liable for any information contained in any Report; (c) the Reports are not
comprehensive audits or examinations, and that any Person performing any field examination will
inspect only specific information regarding the Loan Parties and will rely significantly upon the
Loan Parties’ books and records, as well as on representations of the Loan Parties’ personnel and
that the Administrative Agent undertakes no obligation to update, correct or supplement the
Reports; (d) it will keep all Reports confidential and strictly for its internal use, not share the
Report with any Loan Party or any other Person except as otherwise permitted pursuant to this
Agreement; and (e) without limiting the generality of any other indemnification provision contained
in this Agreement, it will pay and protect, and indemnify, defend, and hold the Administrative
Agent and any such other Person preparing a Report harmless from and against, the claims, actions,
proceedings, damages, costs, expenses, and other amounts (including reasonable attorney fees)
incurred by such Person as the direct or indirect result of disclosure of any such Report to a
third party by such indemnifying Lender in violation of the terms hereof.

     (iii) if to any other Lender, to it at its address (or telecopy number) set
forth in its Administrative Questionnaire.

All such notices and other communications (i) sent by hand or overnight courier service, or mailed
by certified or registered mail, shall be deemed to have been given when received or (ii) sent by
telecopy or by Adobe pdf file shall be deemed to have been given when sent, provided that
if not given during normal business hours for the recipient, shall be deemed to have been given at
the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient.

          (b) Any party hereto may change its address or telecopy number for notices and other
communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto. Notices and other communications
to the Lenders and the Issuing Bank hereunder may also be delivered or furnished by electronic
communication (including e-mail, Adobe pdf file and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to
procedures approved by the Administrative Agent, provided that the foregoing shall not
apply to notices to any Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant to Article II if such Lender or the
Issuing Bank, as applicable, has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of
receiving notices under such Article by electronic communication. The Administrative Agent or the
Borrower (on behalf of the Loan Parties) may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other
communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it,
provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or
communications. All notices and other communications given to any party hereto in accordance with
the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been given on the date of receipt.

          SECTION 9.02. Waivers; Amendments. (a) No failure or delay by the Administrative
Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power under any 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 Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank 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 any Loan Document or consent to any departure by any
Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by
paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the
specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the making of a Loan or the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of a Letter of
Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative
Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.
No notice to or demand on the Borrower or any other Loan Party in any case shall entitle the
Borrower or any other Loan Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other
circumstances.

          (b) Except as provided in Section 2.19 with respect to any Revolving Commitment Increase,
neither any Loan Document nor any provision thereof may be waived, amended or modified except, in
the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the
Borrower and the Required Lenders or, in the case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to an

69

 

agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent and the
applicable Loan Parties, in each case with the consent of the Required Lenders, provided
that no such agreement shall (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent
of such Lender, (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate
of interest thereon, or reduce or forgive any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent
of each Lender affected thereby, (iii) postpone the maturity of any Loan, or the required date of
reimbursement of any LC Disbursement, or any date for the payment of any interest or fees payable
hereunder, or reduce or forgive the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the
scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender
affected thereby, (iv) change Section 2.17(b) or (d) or any other provision of this Agreement in a
manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without
the written consent of each Lender adversely affected thereby, (v) change any of the provisions of
this Section or the percentage set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other
provision of any Loan Document specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive,
amend or modify any rights thereunder or make any determination or grant any consent thereunder,
without the written consent of each Lender (it being understood that, with the consent of the
Required Lenders, additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement may be included in
the determination of the Required Lenders on substantially the same basis as the Revolving
Commitments on the Restatement Effective Date), (vi) modify the protections afforded to an SPV
pursuant to the provisions of Section 9.04(e) without the written consent of such SPV, (vii)
release any material Loan Party from its Guarantee under the Guarantee Agreement (except as
expressly provided in the Guarantee Agreement), or limit its liability in respect of such
Guarantee, without the written consent of each Lender, (viii) release all or substantially all the
Collateral from the Liens of the Collateral Documents, without the written consent of each Lender
or (ix) change any of the provisions of the definitions of “Eligible Accounts”, “Eligible
Inventory” or “Borrowing Base” (including the advance rates referenced therein and any defined
term used therein relevant to the determination of the Borrowing Base), without the written
consent of Lenders having Revolving Exposure and unused Revolving Commitments, if any,
representing more than 75% of the sum of the total Revolving Exposure and unused Revolving
Commitments at such time; provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or
otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the
Swingline Lender without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank
or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be.

          (c) In connection with any proposed amendment, modification, waiver or termination (a
“Proposed Change”) requiring the consent of all Lenders or all affected Lenders, if the
consent of the Required Lenders to such Proposed Change is obtained, but the consent to such
Proposed Change of other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained (any such Lender whose
consent is not obtained as described in paragraph (b) of this Section being referred to as a
“Non-Consenting Lender”), then, so long as the Lender that is acting as Administrative
Agent is not a Non-Consenting Lender, the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice
to such Non-Consenting Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Non-Consenting Lender to
assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained
in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee
that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such
assignment), provided that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent
of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender, which consent shall not
unreasonably be withheld or delayed, (ii) such Non-Consenting Lender shall have received payment of
an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements,
Swingline Loans and Overadvances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts
payable to it hereunder from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued
interest and fees) or the Loan Parties (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) the Loan
Parties or such assignee shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the processing and recordation
fee specified in Section 9.04(b).

70

 

          SECTION 9.03. Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. (a) The Borrower shall pay (i)
all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable expenses incurred in connection with
due diligence) incurred by the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates, including the reasonable
fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent, in connection with the
syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration of the
Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions thereof (whether or
not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance, amendment,
renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any
Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent,
the Issuing Bank or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in
connection with the Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with
the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such reasonable out-of-pocket
expenses incurred during any workout or restructuring (and related negotiations) in respect of
such Loans or Letters of Credit.

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

          (c) To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender under paragraph (a) or (b) of this
Section and without limiting the Borrower’s obligation to do so, each Lender severally agrees to
pay to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be,
such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed
expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount, provided that the
unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case
may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the
Swingline Lender in its capacity as such. The obligations of the Lenders under this paragraph (c)
are subject to the last sentence of Section 2.02(a) (which shall apply mutatis mutandis to the
Lenders’ obligations under this paragraph (c)).

          (d) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower shall not assert, and
hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special,
indirect,

71

 

consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in
connection with, or as a result of, any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated
thereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof.

          (e) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than three Business Days
after written demand therefor setting forth the basis for such claim in reasonable detail.

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

          (b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may
assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this
Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it)
with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of (A)
the Borrower, provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment
to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund (as defined below) or, if an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee; (B) the Administrative Agent; and (C)
the Issuing Bank.

     (ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions: (A) except in
the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of the
entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans, the amount of the
Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as
of the trade date specified in the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment
or, if no date is so specified, as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to
such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000
unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent (such consent not
to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), provided that no such consent of the
Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; (B) each
partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the
assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement; (C) the parties to each
assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and
Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, provided that
assignments made pursuant to Section 2.18(b) or Section 9.02(c) shall not require the
signature of the assigning Lender to become effective; and (D) the assignee, if it shall not
be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent any Tax forms required by Section
2.16(f) and an Administrative Questionnaire in which the assignee designates one or more
credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain material
non-public information about the Loan Parties and their Related Parties or their respective
securities) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with
the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable laws, including Federal and state
securities laws.

72

 

          For purposes of paragraph (b) of this Section, the term “Approved Fund” and “CLO” have the
following meanings:

          “Approved Fund” means (a) a CLO and (b) with respect to any Lender that is a fund that
invests in bank loans and similar extensions of credit, any other fund that invests in bank loans
and similar extensions of credit and is managed by the same investment advisor as such Lender or by
an Affiliate of such investment advisor.

          “CLO” means an entity (whether a corporation, partnership, trust or otherwise) that is
engaged in making, purchasing, holding or otherwise investing in bank loans and similar extensions
of credit in the ordinary course of its business and is administered or managed by a Lender or an
Affiliate of such Lender.

     (iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this
Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the
assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by
such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this
Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned
by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement
(and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s
rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto
but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 9.03) and
to any fees payable hereunder that have accrued for such Lender’s account but have not yet
been paid Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this
Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.04 shall be treated for purposes of this
Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in
accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section.

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

     (v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an
assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire and
any Tax forms required by Section 2.16(f) (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender
hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section
and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the
Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information
contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this
Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

     (vi) The words “execution”, “signed”, “signature” and words of like import in any
Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of
records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or
enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping
system,

73

 

as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including
the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State
Electronic Signatures and Records Act or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform
Electronic Transactions Act.

          (c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the
Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities
(a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this
Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it),
provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged,
(B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of
such obligations and (C) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the other
Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such
Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.

     (ii) Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation
shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce the Loan Documents
and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of the Loan
Documents, provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender
will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or
waiver described in the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that affects such Participant.
Subject to paragraph (c)(iii) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant
shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.15 and 2.16 (subject to the
requirements and limitations therein) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had
acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section,
provided that such Participant shall be subject to Section 2.18 as though it were a
Lender. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the
benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender, provided that such Participant
shall be subject to Section 2.17(d) as though it were a Lender.

     (iii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section
2.14, 2.15 or 2.16 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with
respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation
to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that
would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of
Section 2.16 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant
and such Participant complies with Section 2.16(f) as though it were a Lender.

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

          (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting
Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPV”), identified as such
in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower,
the option to provide to the Borrower all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would
otherwise be obligated to make to the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement, provided that
(i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPV to make any Loan and (ii) if an SPV
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

74

 

such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of a Loan by an SPV 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 SPV shall be liable for any
indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which is hereby
assumed by and 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 SPV, such party will not institute against,
or join any other person in instituting against, such SPV any bankruptcy, reorganization,
arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under the laws of the U.S. or any State
thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9.04,
any SPV may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Borrower and the
Administrative 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 (consented to
by the Borrower and Administrative Agent) providing liquidity or credit support to or for the
account of such SPV 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 SPV.

          SECTION 9.05. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties
made by the Borrower and the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other
instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document
shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the
execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and the issuance of any
Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf
and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had
notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit
is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or
any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other Obligation (as distinguished from the
Secured Obligations) under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is
outstanding and so long as the Revolving Commitments have not expired or terminated. The
provisions of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full
force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the
repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments
or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

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

          SECTION 9.07. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid,
illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the
extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality
and enforceability of the

75

 

remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular
jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

          SECTION 9.08. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, each Lender, the Issuing Bank and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby
authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off
and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in
whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing
by such Lender, the Issuing Bank or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the
Borrower against any of and all the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under
this Agreement held by such Lender or the Issuing Bank, irrespective of whether or not such Lender
or the Issuing Bank shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations
may be unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender or the Issuing Bank different
from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such Indebtedness. The applicable
Lender and the Issuing Bank shall notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of such setoff
and application, provided that any failure to give or any delay in giving such notice shall
not affect the validity of any such setoff and application under this Section. The rights of each
Lender, the Issuing Bank and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to
other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, the Issuing Bank and
their respective Affiliates may have.

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

          (b) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its
property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in
New York County and of the U.S. District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any
appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any
Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto
hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or
proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law,
in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action
or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the
judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

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

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

          SECTION 9.10. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST
EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL
PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE
TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH
PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR
ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE,

76

 

THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY
WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES
THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER
THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

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

          SECTION 9.12. Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank
and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below),
except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers,
employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood
that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of
such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested
by any regulatory authority, (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any
subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with
the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to any Loan
Document or the enforcement of rights thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions
substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any
prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or
(ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any Swap Agreement relating to
the Loan Parties and their obligations under the Loan Documents, (g) with the consent of the
Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a
result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, the
Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than a Loan Party. For
the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from a Loan
Party and/or its Related Parties or representatives relating to any Loan Party, its Subsidiaries or
their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure
by any Loan Party and/or its Related Parties or representatives, provided that, in the case
of information received from the Borrower and/or its Related Parties or any Subsidiary after the
Effective Date, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential.
Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section
shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the
same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord
to its own confidential information.

          (b) Each Lender acknowledges that information as defined in Section 9.12(a) furnished to it
pursuant to this Agreement may include material non-public Information concerning the Loan Parties
and their Related Parties or their respective securities, and confirms that it has developed
compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public Information and that it will handle
such material non-public Information in accordance with those procedures, applicable law, including
Federal and state securities laws, and the terms hereof.

          (c) All information, including waivers and amendments, furnished by the Loan Parties, their
Related Parties or representatives or the Administrative Agent pursuant to, or in the course of
administering, this Agreement will be syndicate-level information, which may contain material
non-public Information about the Loan Parties and their Related Parties or their respective
securities and its securities. Accordingly, each Lender represents to the Borrower (on behalf of
the Loan Parties) and the Administrative Agent that it has identified in its Administrative
Questionnaire a credit contact who may
receive Information that may contain material non-public Information in accordance with its
compliance procedures, applicable law and the terms hereof.

77

 

          SECTION 9.13. USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender that is subject to the requirements of
the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the
“Act”) hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Act, it is
required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Loan Parties, which
information includes the names and addresses of the Loan Parties and other information that will
allow such Lender to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Act.

in, make other loans to or have other relationships with any of the Loan Parties and their

Lender as its agent for the purpose of perfecting Liens, for the benefit of the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders, in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC or any other
applicable law, can be perfected only by possession. Should any Lender (other than the Lender
serving hereunder as the Administrative Agent) obtain possession of any such Collateral, such
Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof, and, promptly upon the Administrative Agent’s
request therefor shall deliver such Collateral to the Administrative Agent or otherwise deal with
such Collateral in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s instructions.

          SECTION 9.16. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan or participation in any LC
Disbursement, together with all fees, charges and other amounts that are treated as interest on
such Loan or LC Disbursement or participation therein under applicable law (collectively the
“Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) that may be
contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan or LC
Disbursement or participation therein in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest
payable in respect of such Loan or LC Disbursement or participation therein 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 LC
Disbursement or participation therein but were not payable as a result of the operation of this
Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other
Loans or LC Disbursements or participation therein or periods shall be increased (but not above the
Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal
Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.

          SECTION 9.17. Existing Credit Agreement; Effectiveness of Amendment and Restatement.

Schedule 3.06

Disclosed Matters

The inclusion of the following information in this Schedule 3.06 shall not constitute an admission
of liability with respect to any such matter or that any such matter will have, or could reasonably
be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect.

We are named as defendants in litigation arising from our operations, including claims and
lawsuits arising from the operation of our vehicles, product warranties, personal injury and
commercial disputes. We have also been notified by state and federal environmental protection
agencies of possible involvement as one of numerous “potentially responsible parties” in a number
of so-called “Superfund” sites in the United States. As a potentially responsible party, we may be
responsible to pay for some part of the cleanup of hazardous waste at these sites. In most of these
sites, our involvement is expected to be minimal. In addition, we are involved in environmental
cleanups of other property that we own or owned. We believe that appropriate reserves have been
established for our potential liability in connection with these matters, taking into account the
probability of liability, whether our exposure can be reasonably estimated and, if so, our estimate
of our liability on the range of our liability. However, we continue to review our accruals as
additional information becomes available.

We do not expect the environmental or any other litigation matters involving USG to have a material
adverse effect upon our results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

NON-U.S. LENDER INSTITUTIONS:

I. Corporations:

If your institution is incorporated outside of the United States for U.S. federal income tax
purposes, and is the beneficial owner of the interest and other income it receives, you
must complete one of the following three tax forms, as applicable to your institution: a.) Form
W-8BEN (Certificate of Foreign Status of Beneficial Owner), b.) Form W-8ECI (Income Effectively
Connected to a U.S. Trade or Business), or c.) Form W-8EXP (Certificate of Foreign Government or
Governmental Agency).

A U.S. taxpayer identification number is required for any institution submitting Form W-8ECI. It
is also required on Form W-8BEN for certain institutions claiming the benefits of a tax treaty with
the U.S. Please refer to the instructions when completing the form applicable to your institution.
In addition, please be advised that U.S. tax regulations do not permit the acceptance of faxed
forms. An original tax form must be submitted.

II. Flow-Through Entities:

If your institution is organized outside the U.S., and is classified for U.S. federal income tax
purposes as either a Partnership, Trust, Qualified or Non-Qualified Intermediary, or other non-U.S.
flow-through entity, an original Form W-8IMY (Certificate of Foreign Intermediary, Foreign
Flow-Through Entity, or Certain U.S. Branches for United States Tax Withholding) must be completed
by the intermediary together with a withholding statement. Flow-through entities other than
Qualified Intermediaries are required to include tax forms for each of the underlying beneficial
owners.

Please refer to the instructions when completing this form. In addition, please be advised that
U.S. tax regulations do not permit the acceptance of faxed forms. Original tax form(s) must be
submitted.

U.S. LENDER INSTITUTIONS:

If your institution is incorporated or organized within the United States, you must
complete and return Form W-9 (Request for Taxpayer Identification Number and Certification).
Please be advised that we request that you submit an original Form W-9.

Pursuant to the language contained in the tax section of the Credit Agreement, the applicable tax
form for your institution must be completed and returned prior to the first payment of income.
Failure to provide the proper tax form when requested may subject your institution to U.S. tax
withholding.

ARTICLE II

Guarantee

          SECTION 2.01. Guarantee. Each Guarantor unconditionally guarantees, jointly with the
other Guarantors and severally, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, the due and
punctual payment and performance of the Secured Obligations. Each of the Guarantors further agrees
that the Secured Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice to or
further assent from it, and that it will remain bound upon its guarantee notwithstanding any
extension or renewal of any Secured Obligation. Each of the Guarantors waives presentment to,
demand of payment from and protest to the Borrower or any other Loan Party of any of the Secured
Obligations, and also waives notice of acceptance of its guarantee and notice of protest for
nonpayment.

          SECTION 2.02. Guarantee of Payment. Each of the Guarantors further agrees that its
guarantee hereunder constitutes a guarantee of payment when due and not of collection, and waives
any right to require that any resort be had by the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed
Party to any security held for the payment of the Secured Obligations or to any balance of any
deposit account or credit on the books of the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Party in
favor of the Borrower or any other Person.

          SECTION 2.03. No Limitations. (a) Except for termination of a Guarantor’s
obligations hereunder as expressly provided in Section 4.13, the obligations of each Guarantor
hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any
reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not
be subject to any defense or set-off, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason
of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Secured Obligations or otherwise. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be
discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by (i) the failure of the Administrative Agent or any
other Guaranteed Party to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy under the
provisions of any Loan Document or otherwise; (ii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or
modification of, or any release from any of the terms or provisions of, any Loan Document or any
other agreement, including with respect to any other Guarantor under this Agreement; (iii) the
release of any security, if any, held by the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Party for
the Secured Obligations or any of them; (iv) any default, failure or delay, wilful or otherwise, in
the performance of the Secured Obligations; or (v) any other act or omission that may or might in
any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor or otherwise operate as a discharge of
any

2

 

Guarantor as a matter of law or equity (other than the payment in full in cash of all the
Secured Obligations).

          (b) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives any defense based
on or arising out of any defense of the Borrower or any other Loan Party or the unenforceability of
the Secured Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the
liability of the Borrower or any other Loan Party, other than the payment in full in cash of all
the Secured Obligations. The Administrative Agent may, at its election, foreclose on any security
held by it by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, accept an assignment of any such security
in lieu of foreclosure, compromise or adjust any part of the Secured Obligations, make any other
accommodation with the Borrower or any other Loan Party or exercise any other right or remedy
available to it against the Borrower or any other Loan Party, without affecting or impairing in any
way the liability of any Guarantor hereunder except to the extent the Secured Obligations have been
paid in full in cash. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives any
defense arising out of any such election even though such election may operate, pursuant to
applicable law, to impair or to extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right
or remedy of such Guarantor against the Borrower or any other Loan Party, as the case may be, or
any security.

          SECTION 2.04. Reinstatement. Each of the Guarantors agrees that its guarantee
hereunder shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time
payment, or any part thereof, of any Secured Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored
by the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Party upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of
the Borrower, any other Loan Party or otherwise.

          SECTION 2.05. Agreement To Pay; Subrogation. In furtherance of the foregoing and not
in limitation of any other right that the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Party has at
law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Borrower or any
other Loan Party to pay any Secured Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at
maturity, by acceleration, after notice of prepayment or otherwise, each Guarantor hereby promises
to and will forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, to the Administrative Agent for distribution to the
applicable Guaranteed Parties in cash the amount of such unpaid Secured Obligation. Upon payment
by any Guarantor of any sums to the Administrative Agent as provided above, all rights of such
Guarantor against the Borrower or any other Loan Party arising as a result thereof by way of right
of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or otherwise shall in all respects be
subject to Article III.

          SECTION 2.06. Information. Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and
keeping itself informed of the Borrower’s and each other Loan Party’s financial condition and
assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Secured
Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that such Guarantor assumes and incurs
hereunder, and agrees that none of the Administrative Agent or the other Guaranteed Parties will
have any duty to advise such Guarantor of information known to it or any of them regarding such
circumstances or risks.

ARTICLE III

Indemnity, Subrogation and Subordination

          SECTION 3.01. Indemnity and Subrogation. In addition to all such rights of indemnity
and subrogation as the Guarantors may have under applicable law (but subject to Section 3.03), each
Guarantor agrees that in the event a payment of a Secured Obligation of such Guarantor shall be
made by any other Guarantor under this Agreement, such Guarantor shall indemnify such other
Guarantor for the full amount of such payment and such other Guarantor shall be subrogated to the
rights of the Person to whom such payment shall have been made to the extent of such payment.

          SECTION 3.02. Contribution and Subrogation. Each Guarantor (a “Contributing
Party”) agrees (subject to Section 3.03) that, in the event a payment shall be made by any
other Guarantor hereunder in respect of any Secured Obligation and such other Guarantor (the
“Claiming Party”) shall not have been fully indemnified by the applicable Guarantor as
provided in Section 3.01, the Contributing Party shall indemnify the Claiming Party in an amount
equal to the amount of such payment multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the
net worth of the Contributing Party on the date hereof (or, in the case of any Guarantor becoming a
party hereto pursuant to Section 4.14, the date of the supplement hereto executed and delivered by
such Guarantor) and the denominator shall be the aggregate net worth of all the Guarantors on the
date hereof (or, in the case of any Guarantor becoming a party hereto pursuant to Section 4.14, the
date of the supplement hereto executed and delivered by such Guarantor). Any Contributing Party
making any payment to a Claiming Party pursuant to this Section 3.02 shall be subrogated to the
rights of such Claiming Party under Section 3.01 to the extent of such payment.

          SECTION 3.03. Subordination. (a) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to
the contrary, all rights of the Guarantors under Sections 3.01 and 3.02 and all other rights of
indemnity, contribution or subrogation under applicable law or otherwise shall be fully
subordinated to the payment in full in cash of the Secured Obligations. No failure on the part of
any Guarantor to make the payments required by Sections 3.01 and 3.02 (or any other payments
required under applicable law or otherwise) shall in any respect limit the obligations and
liabilities of any Guarantor with respect to its obligations hereunder, and each Guarantor shall
remain liable for the full amount of the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder.

          (b) Each Guarantor hereby agrees that all Indebtedness owed by it to any other Subsidiary that
is not a Loan Party shall be fully subordinated to the payment in full in cash of the Secured
Obligations.

ARTICLE IV

Miscellaneous

          SECTION 4.01. Notices. All communications and notices hereunder shall (except as
otherwise expressly permitted herein) be in writing and given as provided in Section 9.01 of the
Credit Agreement. All communications and notices hereunder to any Guarantor shall be given to it
in care of the Borrower as provided in Section 9.01 of the Credit Agreement.

          SECTION 4.02. Waivers; Amendment. (a) No failure or delay by the Administrative
Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power 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 Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank 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 consent to any
departure by any Guarantor therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be
permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section 4.02, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective
only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as
a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing
Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. No notice or demand on any
Guarantor in any case shall entitle any Guarantor 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 the Administrative Agent and the
Guarantor or Guarantors with respect to which such waiver, amendment or modification is to apply,
subject to any consent required in accordance with Section 9.02 of the Credit Agreement.

          SECTION 4.03. Administrative Agent’s Fees and Expenses; Indemnification. (a) The
parties hereto agree that the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to reimbursement of its
expenses incurred hereunder as provided in Section 9.03 of the Credit Agreement.

          (b) Without limitation of its indemnification obligations under the other Loan Documents, each
Guarantor jointly and severally agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent and the other
Indemnitees (as defined in Section 9.03 of the Credit Agreement) against, and hold each Indemnitee
harmless from, any and all out-of-pocket losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related
reasonable expenses, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for
any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with,
or as a result of,

5

 

the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement or any claim, litigation,
investigation or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any instrument contemplated hereby,
whether or not any Indemnitee is a party thereto, provided that such indemnity shall not,
as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable
judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such Indemnitee.

          (c) Any such amounts payable as provided hereunder shall be additional Secured Obligations
guaranteed hereby. The provisions of this Section 4.03 shall remain operative and in full force
and effect regardless of the termination of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Secured
Obligations, 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 Administrative Agent or any
other Guaranteed Party. All amounts due under this Section 4.03 shall be payable not later than
three Business Days after written demand therefor setting forth the basis for such claim in
reasonable detail.

          SECTION 4.04. Successors and Assigns. Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties
hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the permitted successors and
assigns of such party; and all covenants, promises and agreements by or on behalf of any Guarantor
or the Administrative Agent that are contained in this Agreement shall bind and inure to the
benefit of their respective successors and assigns.

          SECTION 4.05. Survival of Agreement. All covenants, agreements, representations and
warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the 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
execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any
Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any Lender or on its behalf and
notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice
or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is
extended under the Credit Agreement, 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 any
Loan Document is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the
Commitments have not expired or terminated.

          SECTION 4.06. Counterparts; Effectiveness; Several Agreement. This Agreement may be
executed in counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original but all of which when taken
together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an executed signature page to this
Agreement by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a
manually signed counterpart of this Agreement. This Agreement shall become effective as to any
Guarantor when a counterpart hereof executed on behalf of such Guarantor shall have been delivered
to the Administrative Agent and a counterpart hereof shall have been executed on behalf of the
Administrative

6

 

Agent, and thereafter shall be binding upon such Loan Party and the Administrative Agent and
their respective permitted successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of such
Guarantor, the Administrative Agent and the other Guaranteed Parties and their respective
successors and assigns, except that no Guarantor shall have the right to assign or transfer its
rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein (and any such assignment or transfer shall
be void) except as expressly contemplated by this Agreement or the Credit Agreement. This
Agreement shall be construed as a separate agreement with respect to each Guarantor and may be
amended, modified, supplemented, waived or released with respect to any Guarantor without the
approval of any other Guarantor and without affecting the obligations of any other Guarantor
hereunder.

          SECTION 4.07. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid,
illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the
extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality
and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision
in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. 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.

          SECTION 4.08. Right of Set-Off. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time
to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general
or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any
time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Guarantor against
any of and all the obligations of such Guarantor now or hereafter existing under this Agreement
owed to such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under
this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under
this Section 4.08 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off)
which such Lender may have.

          SECTION 4.09. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) This
Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York.

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

7

 

enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by
law.

          (c) Each of the parties hereto 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 any other Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 4.09. Each of
the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense
of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

          (d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner
provided for notices in Section 4.01. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document will
affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by
law.

          SECTION 4.10. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST
EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL
PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN
DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER
THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER
PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF
LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES
HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS
AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 4.10.

          SECTION 4.11. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used
herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and are not to affect
the construction of, or to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

          SECTION 4.12. Guarantee Absolute. All rights of the Administrative Agent hereunder
and all obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of
(a) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document, any
agreement or instrument governing or evidencing any of the Secured Obligations or any other
agreement or instrument relating to any of the foregoing, (b) any change in the time, manner or
place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Secured Obligations, or any other
amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from the Credit Agreement, any other Loan
Document or any other agreement or instrument governing or evidencing any Secured Obligations, (c)
any release or amendment or waiver of or consent under or departure from any guarantee guaranteeing
all or any of the Secured Obligations, or (d) any other

8

 

circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any
Guarantor in respect of the Secured Obligations or this Agreement (other than the payment in full,
in cash, of the Secured Obligations).

          SECTION 4.13. Termination or Release. (a) Subject to Section 2.04, this Agreement
and the Guarantees made herein shall terminate when all the Obligations (as distinguished from the
Secured Obligations) have been paid in full, in cash, and the Lenders have no further commitment to
lend under the Credit Agreement, the LC Exposure has been reduced to zero and the Issuing Bank has
no further obligations to issue Letters of Credit under the Credit Agreement.

          (b) A Guarantor shall automatically be released from its obligations hereunder upon the
consummation of any transaction permitted by, or that would not otherwise result in a Default
under, the Credit Agreement as a result of which such Guarantor ceases to be a Subsidiary,
provided that the Required Lenders shall have consented to such transaction (to the extent
required by the Credit Agreement) and the terms of such consent did not provide otherwise.

          (c) In connection with any termination or release pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) of this
Section 4.13, the Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver to any Guarantor, at such
Guarantor’s expense, all documents that such Guarantor shall reasonably request to evidence such
termination or release. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section 4.13
shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent.

          SECTION 4.14. Additional Subsidiaries. Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, certain
Domestic Material Subsidiaries that were not in existence or not Domestic Material Subsidiaries on
the date of the Credit Agreement (as well as certain other Domestic Subsidiaries specified by the
Borrower) are required to enter in this Agreement as a Guarantor upon becoming such a Domestic
Material Subsidiary (or upon such designation). Upon execution and delivery by the Administrative
Agent and a Subsidiary of an instrument in the form of Exhibit I hereto, such Subsidiary shall
become a Guarantor hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Guarantor
herein. The execution and delivery of any such instrument shall not require the consent of any
other Guarantor hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall remain in
full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Guarantor as a party to this
Agreement.

          SECTION 4.15. Existing Guarantee Agreement. Each Guarantor that was party to the
Guarantee Agreement dated as of November 11, 2008 (the “Existing Guarantee Agreement”),
among the Borrower, the Subsidiaries party thereto and the Administrative Agent, hereby consents to
the termination of the Existing Guarantee Agreement in accordance with Section 3 of the Amendment
and Restatement Agreement and acknowledges that this Agreement shall supersede the Existing
Guarantee Agreement on and after the Restatement Effective Date.

Exhibit I to the

Guarantee Agreement

     SUPPLEMENT NO. __ dated as of _________, 20__ (this
“Supplement”), to the Guarantee Agreement dated as of January 7,
2009 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time,
the “Guarantee Agreement”), among USG CORPORATION, a Delaware
corporation (the “Borrower”), the Subsidiaries of the Borrower
from time to time party thereto (together with the Borrower, the
“Guarantors”) and JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A., as Administrative
Agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”).

          A. Reference is made to the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of January
7, 2009 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the
“Credit Agreement”), among the Borrower, the lenders from time to time party thereto, the
Administrative Agent, and Goldman Sachs Credit Partners, L.P., as Syndication Agent.

          B. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings
assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement and the Guarantee Agreement referred to therein.

          C. The Guarantors have entered into the Guarantee Agreement in order to induce the Lenders to
make Loans and the Issuing Bank to issue Letters of Credit. Section 4.14 of the Guarantee
Agreement provides that additional Subsidiaries may become Guarantors under the Guarantee Agreement
by execution and delivery of an instrument in the form of this Supplement. The undersigned
Subsidiary (the “New Subsidiary”) is executing this Supplement in accordance with the
requirements of the Credit Agreement to become a Guarantor under the Guarantee Agreement in order
to induce the Lenders to make additional Loans and the Issuing Bank to issue additional Letters of
Credit and as consideration for Loans previously made and Letters of Credit previously issued.

          Accordingly, the Administrative Agent and the New Subsidiary agree as follows:

          SECTION 1. In accordance with Section 4.14 of the Guarantee Agreement, the New Subsidiary by
its signature below becomes a Guarantor under the Guarantee Agreement with the same force and
effect as if originally named therein as a Guarantor and the New Subsidiary hereby (a) agrees to
all the terms and provisions of the Guarantee Agreement applicable to it as a Guarantor thereunder
and (b) represents and warrants that the representations and warranties made by it as a Guarantor
thereunder are true and correct on and as of the date hereof. Each reference to a “Guarantor” in
the Guarantee Agreement shall be deemed to include the New Subsidiary. The Guarantee Agreement is
hereby incorporated herein by reference.

          SECTION 2. The New Subsidiary represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and the
other Guaranteed Parties that this Supplement has been

 

 

duly authorized, executed and delivered by it and constitutes its legal, valid and binding
obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms.

          SECTION 3. This Supplement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto
on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken
together shall constitute a single contract. This Supplement shall become effective when the
Administrative Agent shall have received a counterpart of this Supplement that bears the signature
of the New Subsidiary and the Administrative Agent has executed a counterpart hereof. Delivery of
an executed signature page to this Supplement by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall
be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Supplement.

          SECTION 4. Except as expressly supplemented hereby, the Guarantee Agreement shall remain in
full force and effect.

          SECTION 5. THIS SUPPLEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS
OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

          SECTION 6. In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Supplement should be
held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of
the remaining provisions contained herein and in the Guarantee Agreement 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 hereto 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.

          SECTION 7. All communications and notices hereunder shall be in writing and given as provided
in Section 4.01 of the Guarantee Agreement.

          SECTION 8. The New Subsidiary agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent for its reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses in connection with this Supplement, including the reasonable fees, other
charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent.
