NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are
hereby acknowledged by the parties hereto, the parties hereto agree as follows:

basis of an Absolute Rate pursuant to an Absolute Rate Auction.

Guaranty.

pursuant to Section 11.8.

and delivered to the Administrative Agent in a form supplied by the Administrative Agent to the

“Affected Lender” has the meaning given that term in Section 4.6.

“Affiliate” means, with respect to a specified Person, another Person that directly, or
indirectly through one or more intermediaries, Controls or is Controlled by or is under common
Control with the Person specified. In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any Lender be
deemed to be an Affiliate of the Borrower.

 

 

 

“Agreement Date” means the date as of which this Agreement is dated.

“Applicable Facility Fee” means the percentage set forth in the table below corresponding to
the Level at which the “Applicable Margin” is determined in accordance with the definition thereof:

	 	 	 	 	 
	Level	 	Facility Fee	 
	1
	 	 	0.175	%
	2
	 	 	0.175	%
	3
	 	 	0.225	%
	4
	 	 	0.350	%
	5
	 	 	0.450	%

Any change in the applicable Level at which the Applicable Margin is determined shall result in a
corresponding and simultaneous change in the Applicable Facility Fee and shall be subject to the
last two paragraphs of the definition of “Applicable Margin”. The provisions of this definition
shall be subject to Section 2.5.(c).

“Applicable Law” means all international, foreign, federal, state and local statutes,
treaties, rules, guidelines, regulations, ordinances, codes, executive orders, and administrative
or judicial precedents or authorities, including the interpretation or administration thereof by
any Governmental Authority charged with the enforcement, interpretation or administration thereof,
and all applicable administrative orders, directed duties, requests, licenses, authorizations and
permits of, and agreements with, any Governmental Authority, in each case whether or not having the
force of law.

“Applicable Margin” means the percentage rate set forth in the table below corresponding to
the level (each a “Level”) into which the Borrower’s Credit Rating then falls. As of the Agreement
Date, the Applicable Margin is determined based on Level 3. Any change in the Borrower’s Credit
Rating which would cause it to move to a different Level shall be effective as of the first day of
the first calendar month immediately following receipt by the Administrative Agent of written
notice delivered by the Borrower in accordance with Section 8.4.(k) that the Borrower’s Credit
Rating has changed; provided, however, if the Borrower has not delivered the notice required by
such Section but the Administrative Agent becomes aware that the Borrower’s Credit Rating has
changed, then the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, adjust the Level effective as
of the first day of the first calendar month following the date the Administrative Agent becomes
aware that the Borrower’s Credit Rating has changed. During any period that the Borrower has
received Credit Ratings that are not equivalent, the Applicable Margin shall be determined by the
higher of such two Credit Ratings; provided, however, that if the ratings of the Rating Agencies
are two pricing Levels apart, then the Applicable Margin shall be based on the Level that falls
between the Levels that correspond to the ratings of the Rating Agencies. During any period for
which the Borrower has received a Credit Rating from only one Rating Agency, then the Applicable
Margin shall be determined based on such Credit Rating so long as such Credit Rating is from either
S&P or Moody’s. During any period that the Borrower has (a) not received a Credit Rating from any
Rating Agency or (b) received a Credit Rating from only one Rating Agency that is neither S&P or
Moody’s, the Applicable Margin shall be determined based on Level 5. The provisions of this
definition shall be subject to Section 2.5.(c).

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 
	 	 	 	 	Borrower’s Credit Rating	 	Applicable Margin for	 
	Level	 	 	(S&P/Moody’s or equivalent)	 	Revolving Loans	 
	 	1	 	 	A-/A3 (or equivalent) or better
	 	 	1.00	%
	 	2	 	 	BBB+/Baa1 (or equivalent)

	 	4	 	 	BBB-/Baa3 (or equivalent)
	 	 	1.50	%
	 	5	 	 	Lower than BBB-/Baa3 (or
equivalent)
	 	 	1.85	%

To the extent an upgrade in the applicable Credit Rating of the Borrower by a Rating Agency
results in a decrease to the Applicable Margin and such upgrade is reversed by such Rating Agency,
within ninety (90) days of the upgrade by such Rating Agency, the Applicable Margin shall be
adjusted accordingly and the Borrower shall be required to pay an amount to the Lenders equal to

Section 2.1. Revolving Loans.

(a) Making of Revolving Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this
Agreement, including without limitation, Section 2.15., each Lender severally and not jointly
agrees to make Revolving Loans to the Borrower during the period from and including the Effective
Date to but excluding the Termination Date, in an aggregate principal amount at any one time
outstanding up to, but not exceeding, such Lender’s Commitment. Each borrowing of Base Rate Loans
shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $500,000 in excess
thereof. Each borrowing and Continuation under Section 2.9. of, and each Conversion under Section
2.10. of Base Rate Loans into, LIBOR Loans shall be in an aggregate minimum of $1,000,000 and
integral multiples of $500,000. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding two sentences but
subject to Section 2.15., a borrowing of Revolving Loans may be in the aggregate amount of the
unused Commitments. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow Revolving Loans.

(b) Requests for Revolving Loans. Not later than 9:00 a.m. Pacific time at least one
(1) Business Day prior to a borrowing of Revolving Loans that are to be Base Rate Loans and not
later than 9:00 a.m. Pacific time at least three (3) Business Days prior to a borrowing of
Revolving Loans that are to be LIBOR Loans, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent
a Notice of Borrowing. Each Notice of Borrowing shall specify the aggregate principal amount of
the Revolving Loans to be borrowed, the date

 

- 25 -

 

 such Revolving Loans are to be borrowed (which must be
a Business Day), the use of the proceeds of such Revolving Loans, the Type of the requested Revolving Loans, and if such Revolving
Loans are to be LIBOR Loans, the initial Interest Period for such Revolving Loans. Each Notice of
Borrowing shall be irrevocable once given and binding on the Borrower. Prior to delivering a
Notice of Borrowing, the Borrower may (without specifying whether a Revolving Loan will be a Base
Rate Loan or a LIBOR Loan) request that the Administrative Agent provide the Borrower with the most
recent LIBOR available to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall provide such
quoted rate to the Borrower on the date of such request or as soon as possible thereafter.

(c) Funding of Revolving Loans. Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Borrowing under
the immediately preceding subsection (b), the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the
proposed borrowing. Each Lender shall deposit an amount equal to the Revolving Loan to be made by
such Lender to the Borrower with the Administrative Agent at the Principal Office, in immediately
available funds not later than 9:00 a.m. Pacific time on the date of such proposed Revolving Loans.
Subject to fulfillment of all applicable conditions set forth herein, the Administrative Agent
shall make available to the Borrower in the account specified in the Transfer Authorizer
Designation Form, not later than 12:00 noon Pacific time on the date of the requested borrowing of
Revolving Loans, the proceeds of such amounts received by the Administrative Agent.

(d) Assumptions Regarding Funding by Lenders. With respect to Revolving Loans to be
made after the Effective Date, unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any
Lender that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent a Revolving Loan to be
made by such Lender in connection with any borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such
Lender will make the proceeds of such Revolving Loan available to the Administrative Agent in
accordance with this Section, and the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), in
reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower the amount of such Revolving Loan to
be provided by such Lender. In such event, if such Lender does not make available to the
Administrative Agent the proceeds of such Revolving Loan, then such Lender and the Borrower
severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent on demand the amount of such Revolving Loan with
interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such Revolving Loan is made available to
the Borrower but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a
payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by
the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation and
(ii) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate
Loans. If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay the amount of such interest to the Administrative
Agent for the same or overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the
Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays to
the Administrative Agent the amount of such Revolving Loan, the amount so paid shall constitute
such Lender’s Revolving Loan included in the borrowing. Any payment by the Borrower shall be
without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to
make available the proceeds of a Revolving Loan to be made by such Lender.

Section 2.2. Bid Rate Loans.

(a) Bid Rate Loans. At any time during the period from the Effective Date to but
excluding the Termination Date, and so long as the Borrower continues to maintain an Investment
Grade Rating, the Borrower may, as set forth in this Section, request the Revolving Lenders to make
offers to make Bid Rate Loans to the Borrower in Dollars. The Revolving Lenders may, but shall
have no obligation to, make such offers and the Borrower may, but shall have no obligation to,
accept any such offers in the manner set forth in this Section.

 

- 26 -

 

(b) Requests for Bid Rate Loans. When the Borrower wishes to request from the
Revolving Lenders offers to make Bid Rate Loans, it shall give the Administrative Agent notice (a
“Bid Rate Quote Request”) so as to be received no later than 9:00 a.m. Pacific time on (x) the
Business Day immediately preceding the date of borrowing proposed therein, in the case of an
Absolute Rate Auction and (y) the date four (4) Business Days prior to the proposed date of
borrowing, in the case of a LIBOR Auction. The Administrative Agent shall deliver to each
Revolving Lender a copy of each Bid Rate Quote Request promptly upon receipt thereof by the
Administrative Agent. The Borrower may request offers to make Bid Rate Loans for up to 3 different
Interest Periods in any one Bid Rate Quote Request; provided that if granted each separate Interest
Period shall be deemed to be a separate borrowing (a “Bid Rate Borrowing”). Each Bid Rate Quote
Request shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit L and shall specify as to each Bid Rate
Borrowing all of the following:

(i) the proposed date of such Bid Rate Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day;

(ii) the aggregate amount of such Bid Rate Borrowing which shall be in a minimum amount
of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof which shall not cause any
of the limits specified in Section 2.15. to be violated;

(iii) whether the Bid Rate Quote Request is for LIBOR Margin Loans or Absolute Rate
Loans; and

(iv) the duration of the Interest Period applicable thereto, which shall not extend
beyond the Termination Date.

The Borrower shall not deliver any Bid Rate Quote Request within five Business Days of the giving
of any other Bid Rate Quote Request and the Borrower shall not deliver more than three Bid Rate
Quote Requests in any calendar month.

(c) Bid Rate Quotes.

(i) Each Revolving Lender may submit one or more Bid Rate Quotes, each containing an
offer to make a Bid Rate Loan in response to any Bid Rate Quote Request; provided that, if
the Borrower’s request under Section 2.2.(b) specified more than one Interest Period, such
Revolving Lender may make a single submission containing only one Bid Rate Quote for each
such Interest Period. Each Bid Rate Quote must be submitted to the Administrative Agent not
later than 8:30 a.m. Pacific time (x) on the proposed date of borrowing, in the case of an
Absolute Rate Auction and (y) on the date three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed date
of borrowing, in the case of a LIBOR Auction, provided that the Revolving Lender then acting
as the Administrative Agent may submit a Bid Rate Quote only if it notifies the Borrower of
the terms of the offer contained therein not later than 30 minutes prior to the latest time
by which the Revolving Lenders must submit applicable Bid Rate Quotes. Any Bid Rate Quote
so made shall be irrevocable except with the consent of the Administrative Agent given at
the request of the Borrower. Such Bid Rate Loans may be funded by a Revolving Lender’s
Designated Lender (if any) as provided in Section 12.5.(d); however, such Revolving Lender
shall not be required to specify in its Bid Rate Quote whether such Bid Rate Loan will be
funded by such Designated Lender.

(ii) Each Bid Rate Quote shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit M and shall
specify:

(A) the proposed date of borrowing and the Interest Period therefor;

 

- 27 -

 

(B) the principal amount of the Bid Rate Loan for which each such offer is
being made; provided that the aggregate principal amount of all Bid Rate Loans for
which a Revolving Lender submits Bid Rate Quotes (x) may be greater or less than the
Commitment of such Revolving Lender but (y) shall not exceed the principal amount of
the Bid Rate Borrowing for a particular Interest Period for which offers were
requested; provided further that any Bid Rate Quote shall be in a minimum amount of
$1,000,000 and integral multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof;

(C) in the case of an Absolute Rate Auction, the rate of interest per annum
(rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest 1/1,000th of 1%) offered for each
such Absolute Rate Loan (the “Absolute Rate”);

(D) in the case of a LIBOR Auction, the margin above or below applicable LIBOR
(the “LIBOR Margin”) offered for each such LIBOR Margin Loan, expressed as a
percentage (rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest 1/1,000th of 1%) to be
added to (or subtracted from) the applicable LIBOR; and

(E) the identity of the quoting Revolving Lender.

Unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, no Bid Rate Quote
shall contain qualifying, conditional or similar language or propose terms other than or in
addition to those set forth in the applicable Bid Rate Quote Request and, in particular, no
Bid Rate Quote may be conditioned upon acceptance by the Borrower of all (or some specified
minimum) of the principal amount of the Bid Rate Loan for which such Bid Rate Quote is being
made.

(d) Notification by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall, as promptly
as practicable after the Bid Rate Quotes are submitted (but in any event not later than 9:30 a.m.
Pacific time (x) on the proposed date of borrowing, in the case of an Absolute Rate Auction or (y)
on the date three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed date of borrowing, in the case of a LIBOR
Auction), notify the Borrower of the terms (i) of any Bid Rate Quote submitted by a Revolving
Lender that is in accordance with Section 2.2.(c) and (ii) of any Bid Rate Quote that amends,
modifies or is otherwise inconsistent with a previous Bid Rate Quote submitted by such Revolving
Lender with respect to the same Bid Rate Quote Request. Any such subsequent Bid Rate Quote shall
be disregarded by the Administrative Agent unless such subsequent Bid Rate Quote is submitted
solely to correct a manifest error in such former Bid Rate Quote. The Administrative Agent’s
notice to the Borrower shall specify (A) the aggregate principal amount of the Bid Rate Borrowing
for which offers have been received and (B) the principal amounts and Absolute Rates or LIBOR
Margins, as applicable, so offered by each Revolving Lender (identifying the Revolving Lender that
made such Bid Rate Quote).

(e) Acceptance by Borrower.

(i) Not later than 10:30 a.m. Pacific time (x) on the proposed date of borrowing, in
the case of an Absolute Rate Auction and (y) on the date three (3) Business Days prior to
the proposed date of borrowing, in the case of a LIBOR Auction, the Borrower shall notify
the Administrative Agent of its acceptance or nonacceptance of the Bid Rate Quotes so
notified to it pursuant to Section 2.2.(d). which notice shall be in the form of Exhibit N.
In the case of acceptance, such notice shall specify the aggregate principal amount of Bid
Rate Quotes for each Interest Period that are accepted. The failure of the Borrower to give
such notice by such time shall constitute nonacceptance. The Borrower may accept any Bid
Rate Quote in whole or in part; provided that:

(A) the aggregate principal amount of each Bid Rate Borrowing may not exceed
the applicable amount set forth in the related Bid Rate Quote Request;

 

- 28 -

 

(B) the aggregate principal amount of each Bid Rate Borrowing shall comply with
the provisions of Section 2.2.(b)(ii) and together with all other Bid Rate Loans
then outstanding shall not cause the limits specified in Section 2.15. to be
violated;

(C) acceptance of Bid Rate Quotes may be made only in ascending order of
Absolute Rates or LIBOR Margins, as applicable, in each case beginning with the
lowest rate so offered;

(D) any acceptance in part by the Borrower shall be in a minimum amount of
$1,000,000 and integral multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof; and

(E) the Borrower may not accept any Bid Rate Quote that fails to comply with
Section 2.2.(c) or otherwise fails to comply with the requirements of this
Agreement.

(ii) If Bid Rate Quotes are made by two or more Revolving Lenders with the same
Absolute Rates or LIBOR Margins, as applicable, for a greater aggregate principal amount
than the amount in respect of which Bid Rate Quotes are permitted to be accepted for the
related Interest Period, the principal amount of Bid Rate Loans in respect of which such Bid
Rate Quotes are accepted shall be allocated by the Administrative Agent among such
Revolving Lenders in proportion to the aggregate principal amount of such Bid Rate Quotes.
Determinations by the Administrative Agent of the amounts of Bid Rate Loans shall be
conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

(f) Obligation to Make Bid Rate Loans. The Administrative Agent shall promptly (and
in any event not later than (x) 11:30 a.m. Pacific time on the proposed date of borrowing of
Absolute Rate Loans and (y) on the date three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed date of
borrowing of LIBOR Margin Loans) notify each Revolving Lender as to whose Bid Rate Quote has been
accepted and the amount and rate thereof. A Revolving Lender who is notified that it has been
selected to make a Bid Rate Loan may designate its Designated Lender (if any) to fund such Bid Rate
Loan on its behalf, as described in Section 12.5.(d). Any Designated Lender which funds a Bid Rate
Loan shall on and after the time of such funding become the obligee in respect of such Bid Rate
Loan and be entitled to receive payment thereof when due. No Revolving Lender shall be relieved of
its obligation to fund a Bid Rate Loan, and no Designated Lender shall assume such obligation,
prior to the time the applicable Bid Rate Loan is funded. Any Revolving Lender whose offer to make
any Bid Rate Loan has been accepted shall, not later than 12:30 p.m. Pacific time on the date
specified for the making of such Loan, make the amount of such Loan available to the Administrative
Agent at its Principal Office in immediately available funds, for the account of the Borrower. The
amount so received by the Administrative Agent shall, subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, be made available to the Borrower not later than 1:30 p.m. Pacific time on such date by
depositing the same, in immediately available funds, in an account of the Borrower designated by
the Borrower.

(g) No Effect on Commitment. Except for the purpose and to the extent expressly
stated in Section 2.12. and 2.15., the amount of any Bid Rate Loan made by any Revolving Lender
shall not constitute a utilization of such Revolving Lender’s Commitment.

Section 2.3. Letters of Credit.

(a) Letters of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement,
including without limitation, Section 2.15., the Issuing Bank, on behalf of the Lenders, agrees to
issue for the account of the Borrower during the period from and including the Effective Date to,
but excluding, the date thirty (30) days prior to the Termination Date, one or more standby letters
of credit (each a “Letter of Credit”) up to a maximum aggregate Stated Amount at any one time
outstanding not to exceed $100,000,000.00 as such amount may be reduced from time to time in
accordance with the terms hereof (the “L/C Commitment Amount”). The parties hereto agree that the
Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to be Letters of Credit for all purposes of this
Agreement.

(b) Terms of Letters of Credit. At the time of issuance, the amount, form, terms and
conditions of each Letter of Credit, and of any drafts or acceptances thereunder, shall be subject
to approval by the Issuing Bank and the Borrower. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event may
(i) the expiration date of any Letter of Credit extend beyond the date that is thirty (30) days
prior to the Termination Date, or (ii) any Letter of Credit have an initial duration in excess of
one year; provided, however, a Letter of Credit may contain a provision providing for the automatic
extension of the expiration date in the absence of a notice of non-renewal from the Issuing Bank
but in no event shall any such provision permit the extension of the expiration date of such Letter
of Credit beyond the date that is thirty (30) days prior to the Termination Date; provided,
further, that a Letter of Credit that contains an automatic extension provision may provide for an
extension of its expiration date to a date not more than one year beyond the Termination Date so
long as the Borrower delivers to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders no later
than 20 days prior to the Termination Date (A) either (1) cash collateral for such Letter of Credit
on terms acceptable to the Administrative Agent, (2) a backup letter of credit having terms
acceptable to the Administrative Agent and issued by a domestic financial institution having a
rating assigned by a Rating Agency to its senior unsecured long term indebtedness of AA/Aa2 or (3)
other collateral satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and all of the Lenders and (B) a
reimbursement agreement in form and substance acceptable to the Administrative Agent and such other
documents requested by the Administrative Agent evidencing the Borrower’s reimbursement obligations
in respect of such Letter of Credit. The initial Stated Amount of each Letter of Credit shall be
at least $100,000 (or such lesser amount as may be acceptable to the Issuing Bank, the
Administrative Agent and the Borrower).

(c) Requests for Issuance of Letters of Credit. The Borrower shall give the Issuing
Bank and the Administrative Agent written notice at least five (5) Business Days prior to the
requested date of issuance of a Letter of Credit, such notice to describe in reasonable detail the
proposed terms of such Letter of Credit and the nature of the transactions or obligations proposed
to be supported by such Letter of Credit, and in any event shall set forth with respect to such
Letter of Credit the proposed (i) initial Stated Amount, (ii) beneficiary, and (iii) expiration
date. The Borrower shall also execute and deliver such customary applications and agreements for
standby letters of credit, and other forms as requested from time to time by the Issuing Bank.
Provided the Borrower has given the notice prescribed by the first sentence of this subsection and
delivered such applications and agreements referred to in the preceding sentence, subject to the
other terms and conditions of this Agreement, including the satisfaction of any applicable
conditions precedent set forth in Article 5.2., the Issuing Bank shall issue the requested Letter
of Credit on the requested date of issuance for the benefit of the stipulated beneficiary but in no
event prior to the date five (5) Business Days following the date after which the Issuing Bank has
received all of the items required to be delivered to it under this subsection. The Issuing Bank
shall not at any time be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit if such issuance would conflict
with, or cause the Issuing Bank or any Lender to exceed any limits imposed by, any Applicable Law.
References herein to “issue” and derivations thereof with respect to Letters of Credit shall also
include extensions or modifications of any outstanding Letters of Credit, unless the context
otherwise requires. Upon the written request of the
Borrower, the Issuing Bank shall deliver to the Borrower a copy of each issued Letter of Credit
within a reasonable time after the date of issuance thereof. To the extent any term of a Letter of
Credit Document is inconsistent with a term of any Loan Document, the term of such Loan Document
shall control.

(d) Reimbursement Obligations. Upon receipt by the Issuing Bank from the beneficiary
of a Letter of Credit of any demand for payment under such Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank shall
promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of the amount to be paid by the Issuing
Bank as a result of such demand and the date on which payment is to be made by the Issuing Bank to
such beneficiary in respect of such demand; provided, however, that the Issuing Bank’s failure to
give, or delay in giving, such notice shall not discharge the Borrower in any respect from the
applicable Reimbursement Obligation. The Borrower hereby absolutely, unconditionally and
irrevocably agrees to pay and reimburse the Issuing Bank for the amount of each demand for payment
under such Letter of Credit at or prior to the date on which payment is to be made by the Issuing
Bank to the beneficiary thereunder, without presentment, demand, protest or other formalities of
any kind. Upon receipt by the Issuing Bank of any payment in respect of any Reimbursement
Obligation, the Issuing Bank shall promptly pay to each Lender that has acquired a participation
therein under the second sentence of the immediately following subsection (i) such Lender’s
Commitment Percentage of such payment.

(e) Manner of Reimbursement. Upon its receipt of a notice referred to in the
immediately preceding subsection (d), the Borrower shall advise the Administrative Agent and the
Issuing Bank whether or not the Borrower intends to borrow hereunder to finance its obligation to
reimburse the Issuing Bank for the amount of the related demand for payment and, if it does, the
Borrower shall submit a timely request for such borrowing as provided in the applicable provisions
of this Agreement. If the Borrower fails to so advise the Administrative Agent and the Issuing
Bank, or if the Borrower fails to reimburse the Issuing Bank for a demand for payment under a
Letter of Credit by the date of such payment, the failure of which the Issuing Bank shall promptly
notify the Administrative Agent, then (i) if the applicable conditions contained in Article V.
would permit the making of Revolving Loans, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a
borrowing of Revolving Loans (which shall be Base Rate Loans) in an amount equal to the unpaid
Reimbursement Obligation and the Administrative Agent shall give each Revolving Lender prompt
notice of the amount of the Revolving Loan to be made available to the Administrative Agent not
later than 10:00 a.m. Pacific time and (ii) if such conditions would not permit the making of
Revolving Loans, the provisions of subsection (j) of this Section shall apply. The limitations set
forth in the second sentence of Section 2.1.(a) shall not apply to any borrowing of Base Rate Loans
under this subsection.

(f) Effect of Letters of Credit on Commitments. Upon the issuance by the Issuing Bank
of any Letter of Credit and until such Letter of Credit shall have expired or been cancelled, the
Commitment of each Lender shall be deemed to be utilized for all purposes of this Agreement in an
amount equal to the product of (i) such Lender’s Commitment Percentage and (ii) the sum of (A) the
Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit plus (B) any related Reimbursement Obligations then
outstanding.

(g) Issuing Bank’s Duties Regarding Letters of Credit; Unconditional Nature of
Reimbursement Obligations. In examining documents presented in connection with drawings under
Letters of Credit and making payments under such Letters of Credit against such documents, the
Issuing Bank shall only be required to use the same standard of care as it uses in connection with
examining documents presented in connection with drawings under letters of credit in which it has
not sold participations and making payments under such letters of credit. The Borrower assumes all
risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit by, the respective
beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing,
none of the Issuing Bank, Administrative Agent nor any of the Lenders shall be responsible for, and
the Borrower’s obligations in respect of Letters of Credit

 

- 31 -

 

shall not be affected in any manner by,
(i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effects of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for and
issuance of or any drawing honored under any Letter of Credit even if such document should in fact
prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (ii)
the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer
or assign any Letter of Credit, or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole
or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) failure of the
beneficiary of any Letter of Credit to comply fully with conditions required in order to draw upon
such Letter of Credit; (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery
of any messages, by mail, cable, facsimile, electronic mail, telecopy or otherwise, whether or not
they be in cipher; (v) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vi) any loss or delay in the
transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any Letter of
Credit, or of the proceeds thereof; (vii) the misapplication by the beneficiary of any Letter of
Credit, or of the proceeds of any drawing under any Letter of Credit; or (viii) any consequences
arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank, Administrative Agent or the Lenders.
None of the above shall affect, impair or prevent the vesting of any of the Issuing Bank’s or
Administrative Agent’s rights or powers hereunder. Any action taken or omitted to be taken by the
Issuing Bank under or in connection with any Letter of Credit, if taken or omitted in the absence
of gross negligence or willful misconduct (as admitted by the Issuing Bank in writing or determined
by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment), shall not create against
the Issuing Bank any liability to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Lender. In this
connection, the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any drawing made under
any Letter of Credit, and to repay any Revolving Loan made pursuant to the second sentence of the
immediately preceding subsection (e), shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall be
paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and any other applicable Letter of
Credit Document under all circumstances whatsoever, including without limitation, the following
circumstances: (A) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit Document or any
term or provisions therein; (B) any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or
any of the Letter of Credit Documents; (C) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other
right which the Borrower may have at any time against the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent or
any Lender, any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or any other Person, whether in connection with
this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or in the Letter of Credit Documents or any
unrelated transaction; (D) any breach of contract or dispute between the Borrower, the Issuing
Bank, the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person; (E) any demand, statement or any
other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or
insufficient in any respect or any statement therein or made in connection therewith being untrue
or inaccurate in any respect whatsoever; (F) any non-application or misapplication by the
beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit;
(G) payment by the Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or
certificate which does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; and (H) any
other act, omission to act, delay or circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of
this Section, constitute a legal or equitable defense to or discharge of the Borrower’s
Reimbursement Obligations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section or
Section 12.9., but not in limitation of the Borrower’s unconditional obligation to reimburse the
Issuing Bank for any drawing made under a Letter of Credit as provided in this Section and to repay
any Revolving Loan made pursuant to the second sentence of the immediately preceding subsection
(e), the Borrower shall have no obligation to indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank
or any Lender in respect of any liability incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or
such Lender arising solely out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative
Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Lender in respect of a Letter of Credit as determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment. Except as otherwise provided in this
Section, nothing in this Section shall affect any rights the Borrower may have with respect to the
gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender
with respect to any Letter of Credit.

(h) Amendments, Etc. The issuance by the Issuing Bank of any amendment, supplement or
other modification to any Letter of Credit shall be subject to the same conditions applicable under
this Agreement to the issuance of new Letters of Credit (including, without limitation, that the
request therefor be made through the Issuing Bank), and no such amendment, supplement or other
modification shall be issued unless either (i) the respective Letter of Credit affected thereby
would have complied with such conditions had it originally been issued hereunder in such amended,
supplemented or modified form or (ii) the Administrative Agent and Requisite Revolving Lenders (or
all of the Revolving Lenders if required by Section 12.6.) shall have consented thereto. In
connection with any such amendment, supplement or other modification, the Borrower shall pay the
fees, if any, payable under the last sentence of Section 3.5.(c).

(i) Lenders’ Participation in Letters of Credit. Immediately upon the issuance by the
Issuing Bank of any Letter of Credit each Lender shall be deemed to have absolutely, irrevocably
and unconditionally purchased and received from the Issuing Bank, without recourse or warranty, an
undivided interest and participation to the extent of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the
liability of the Issuing Bank with respect to such Letter of Credit and each Lender thereby shall
absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably assume, as primary obligor and not as surety, and shall
be unconditionally obligated to the Issuing Bank to pay and discharge when due, such Lender’s
Commitment Percentage of the Issuing Bank’s liability under such Letter of Credit. In addition,
upon the making of each payment by a Lender to the Administrative Agent for the account of the
Issuing Bank in respect of any Letter of Credit pursuant to the immediately following subsection
(j), such Lender shall, automatically and without any further action on the part of the Issuing
Bank, Administrative Agent or such Lender, acquire (i) a participation in an amount equal to such
payment in the Reimbursement Obligation owing to the Issuing Bank by the Borrower in respect of
such Letter of Credit and (ii) a participation in a percentage equal to such Lender’s Commitment
Percentage in any interest or other amounts payable by the Borrower in respect of such
Reimbursement Obligation (other than the Fees payable to the Issuing Bank pursuant to the second
and the last sentences of Section 3.5.(c)).

(j) Payment Obligation of Lenders. Each Lender severally agrees to pay to the
Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, on demand in immediately available funds
in Dollars the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of each drawing paid by the Issuing
Bank under each Letter of Credit to the extent such amount is not reimbursed by the Borrower
pursuant to the immediately preceding subsection (d); provided, however, that in respect of any
drawing under any Letter of Credit, the maximum amount that any Lender shall be required to fund,
whether as a Revolving Loan or as a participation, shall not exceed such Lender’s Commitment
Percentage of such drawing. If the notice referenced in the second sentence of Section 2.3.(e) is
received by a Lender not later than 9:00 a.m. Pacific time, then such Lender shall make such
payment available to the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m. Pacific time on the date of
demand therefor; otherwise, such payment shall be made available to the Administrative Agent not
later than 11:00 a.m. Pacific time on the next succeeding Business Day. Each Lender’s obligation
to make such payments to the Administrative Agent under this subsection, and the Administrative
Agent’s right to receive the same for the account of the Issuing Bank, shall be absolute,
irrevocable and unconditional and shall not be affected in any way by any circumstance whatsoever,
including without limitation, (i) the failure of any other Lender to make its payment under this
subsection, (ii) the financial condition of the Borrower or any other Loan Party, (iii) the
existence of any Default or Event of Default, including any Event of Default described in Section
10.1.(e) or (f) or (iv) the termination of the Commitments. Each such payment to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank shall be made without any offset,
abatement, withholding or deduction whatsoever.

(k) Information to Lenders. Promptly following any change in Letters of Credit
outstanding, the Issuing Bank shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, who shall promptly deliver
the same to each Lender and the Borrower, a notice describing the aggregate amount of all Letters
of Credit outstanding at
such time. Upon the request of any Lender from time to time, the Issuing Bank shall deliver any
other information reasonably requested by such Lender with respect to each Letter of Credit then
outstanding. Other than as set forth in this subsection, the Issuing Bank shall have no duty to
notify the Lenders regarding the issuance or other matters regarding Letters of Credit issued
hereunder. The failure of the Issuing Bank to perform its requirements under this subsection shall
not relieve any Lender from its obligations under the immediately preceding subsection (j).

Section 2.4. Swingline Loans.

(a) Swingline Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, including without
limitation Section 2.15., the Swingline Lender agrees to make Swingline Loans to the Borrower,
during the period from the Effective Date to but excluding the Swingline Maturity Date, in an
aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding up to, but not exceeding, the greater of (i)
$100,000,000.00, and (ii) an amount equal to 10% of the aggregate Commitments, as such amount may
be increased or reduced from time to time in accordance with the terms hereof. If at any time the
aggregate principal amount of the Swingline Loans outstanding at such time exceeds the Swingline
Commitment in effect at such time, the Borrower shall immediately pay the Administrative Agent for
the account of the Swingline Lender the amount of such excess. Subject to the terms and conditions
of this Agreement, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow Swingline Loans hereunder.

(b) Procedure for Borrowing Swingline Loans. The Borrower shall give the
Administrative Agent and the Swingline Lender notice pursuant to a Notice of Swingline Borrowing or
telephonic notice of each borrowing of a Swingline Loan. Each Notice of Swingline Borrowing shall
be delivered to the Swingline Lender no later than 9:00 a.m. Pacific time on the proposed date of
such borrowing. Any telephonic notice shall include all information to be specified in a written
Notice of Swingline Borrowing and shall be promptly confirmed in writing by the Borrower pursuant
to a Notice of Swingline Borrowing sent to the Swingline Lender by telecopy on the same day of the
giving of such telephonic notice. Not later than 11:00 a.m. Pacific time on the date of the
requested Swingline Loan and subject to satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in
Article 5.2. for such borrowing, the Swingline Lender will make the proceeds of such Swingline Loan
available to the Borrower in Dollars, in immediately available funds, at the account specified by
the Borrower in the Notice of Swingline Borrowing.

(c) Interest. Swingline Loans shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the
Base Rate as in effect from time to time plus the Applicable Margin or at such other rate or rates
as the Borrower and the Swingline Lender may agree from time to time in writing. Interest on
Swingline Loans is solely for the account of the Swingline Lender (except to the extent a Revolving
Lender acquires a participating interest in a Swingline Loan pursuant to the immediately following
subsection (e)). All accrued and unpaid interest on Swingline Loans shall be payable on the dates
and in the manner provided in Section 2.5. with respect to interest on Base Rate Loans (except as
the Swingline Lender and the Borrower may otherwise agree in writing in connection with any
particular Swingline Loan).

(d) Swingline Loan Amounts, Etc. Each Swingline Loan shall be in the minimum amount
of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $500,000, or such other minimum amounts agreed to by the
Swingline Lender and the Borrower. Any voluntary prepayment of a Swingline Loan must be in
integral multiples of $100,000 or the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Swingline Loans
(or such other minimum amounts upon which the Swingline Lender and the Borrower may agree) and in
connection with any such prepayment, the Borrower must give the Swingline Lender and the
Administrative Agent prior written notice thereof no later than 10:00 a.m. Pacific time on the day
prior to the date of such prepayment. The Swingline Loans shall, in addition to this Agreement, be
evidenced by the Swingline Note.

 

- 34 -

 

(e) Repayment and Participations of Swingline Loans. The Borrower agrees to repay
each Swingline Loan within one Business Day of demand therefor by the Swingline Lender and, in any
event, within thirty (30) Business Days after the date such Swingline Loan was made; provided, that
the proceeds of a Swingline Loan may not be used to pay a Swingline Loan. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Borrower shall repay the entire outstanding principal amount of, and all accrued but
unpaid interest on, the Swingline Loans on the Swingline Maturity Date (or such earlier date as the
Swingline Lender and the Borrower may agree in writing). In lieu of demanding repayment of any
outstanding Swingline Loan from the Borrower, the Swingline Lender may, on behalf of the Borrower
(which hereby irrevocably directs the Swingline Lender to act on its behalf), request a borrowing
of Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans from the Lenders in an amount equal to the principal
balance of such Swingline Loan. The amount limitations contained in the second sentence of Section
2.1.(a) shall not apply to any borrowing of such Revolving Loans made pursuant to this subsection.
The Swingline Lender shall give notice to the Administrative Agent of any such borrowing of
Revolving Loans not later than 9:00 a.m. Pacific time at least one Business Day prior to the
proposed date of such borrowing. Promptly after receipt of such notice of borrowing of Revolving
Loans from the Swingline Lender under the immediately preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent
shall notify each Lender of the proposed borrowing. Not later than 9:00 a.m. Pacific time on the
proposed date of such borrowing, each Lender will make available to the Administrative Agent at the
Principal Office for the account of the Swingline Lender, in immediately available funds, the
proceeds of the Revolving Loan to be made by such Lender. The Administrative Agent shall pay the
proceeds of such Revolving Loans to the Swingline Lender, which shall apply such proceeds to repay
such Swingline Loan. If the Revolving Lenders are prohibited from making Revolving Loans required
to be made under this subsection for any reason whatsoever, including without limitation, the
occurrence of any of the Defaults or Events of Default described in Sections 10.1.(e) or (f)), each
Revolving Lender shall purchase from the Swingline Lender, without recourse or warranty, an
undivided interest and participation to the extent of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such
Swingline Loan, by directly purchasing a participation in such Swingline Loan in such amount and
paying the proceeds thereof to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender in
Dollars and in immediately available funds. A Lender’s obligation to purchase such a participation
in a Swingline Loan shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any
circumstance whatsoever, including without limitation, (i) any claim of setoff, counterclaim,
recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender or any other Person may have or claim against
the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender or any other Person whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence
or continuation of a Default or Event of Default (including without limitation, any of the Defaults
or Events of Default described in Sections 10.1. (e) or (f)), or the termination of any Lender’s
Commitment, (iii) the existence (or alleged existence) of an event or condition which has had or
could have a Material Adverse Effect, (iv) any breach of any Loan Document by the Administrative
Agent, any Lender, the Borrower or any other Loan Party, or (v) any other circumstance, happening
or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. If such amount is not in fact
made available to the Swingline Lender by any Lender, the Swingline Lender shall be entitled to
recover such amount on demand from such Lender, together with accrued interest thereon for each day
from the date of demand thereof, at the Federal Funds Rate. If such Lender does not pay such
amount forthwith upon the Swingline Lender’s demand therefor, and until such time as such Lender
makes the required payment, the Swingline Lender shall be deemed to continue to have outstanding
Swingline Loans in the amount of such unpaid participation obligation for all purposes of the Loan
Documents (other than those provisions requiring the other Lenders to purchase a participation
therein). Further, such Lender shall be deemed to have assigned any and all payments made of
principal and interest on its Revolving Loans, and any other amounts due it hereunder, to the
Swingline Lender to fund Swingline Loans in the amount of the participation in Swingline Loans that
such Lender failed to purchase pursuant to this Section until such amount has been purchased (as a
result of such assignment or otherwise).

Section 2.5. Rates and Payment of Interest on Loans.

(a) Rates. The Borrower promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account
of each Lender interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan made by such Lender for the
period from and including the date of the making of such Loan to but excluding the date such Loan
shall be paid in full, at the following per annum rates:

(i) during such periods as such Loan is a Base Rate Loan, at the Base Rate (as in
effect from time to time), plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans;

(ii) during such periods as such Loan is a LIBOR Loan, at LIBOR for such Loan for the
Interest Period therefor, plus the Applicable Margin for LIBOR Loans;

(iii) if such Loan is an Absolute Rate Loan, at the Absolute Rate for such Loan for the
Interest Period therefor quoted by the Lender making such Loan in accordance with Section
2.2.; and

(iv) if such Loan is a LIBOR Margin Loan, at LIBOR for such Loan for the Interest
Period therefor plus the LIBOR Margin quoted by the Lender making such Loan in accordance
with Section 2.2.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, while an Event of Default exists, the Borrower shall pay to the
Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender and the Issuing Bank, as the case may be,
interest at the Post-Default Rate on the outstanding principal amount of any Loan made by such
Lender, on all Reimbursement Obligations and on any other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder
or under the Notes held by such Lender to or for the account of such Lender (including without
limitation, accrued but unpaid interest to the extent permitted under Applicable Law).

(b) Payment of Interest. All accrued and unpaid interest on the outstanding principal
amount of each Loan shall be payable (i) monthly in arrears on the first day of each month,
commencing with the first full calendar month occurring after the Effective Date and (ii) on any
date on which the principal balance of such Loan is due and payable in full (whether at maturity,
due to acceleration or otherwise). Interest payable at the Post-Default Rate shall be payable from
time to time on demand. All determinations by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate
hereunder shall be conclusive and binding on the Lenders and the Borrower for all purposes, absent
manifest error.

(c) Borrower Information Used to Determine Applicable Interest Rates. The parties
understand that the applicable interest rate for the Obligations and certain fees set forth herein
may be determined and/or adjusted from time to time based upon the Borrower’s Credit Rating (the
“Borrower Information”). If it is subsequently determined that any such Borrower Information was
incorrect (for whatever reason) at the time it was delivered to the Administrative Agent, and if
the applicable interest rate or fees calculated for any period were lower than they should have
been had the correct information been timely provided, then, such interest rate and such fees for
such period shall be automatically recalculated using correct Borrower Information. The
Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower in writing of any additional interest and
fees due because of such recalculation, and the Borrower shall pay such additional interest or fees
due to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender, within five (5) Business Days of
receipt of such written notice. Any recalculation of interest or fees required by this provision
shall survive the termination of this Agreement, and this provision shall not in any way limit any
of the Administrative Agent’s, the Issuing Bank’s, or any Lender’s other rights under this
Agreement.

 

- 36 -

 

Section 2.6. Number of Interest Periods.

There may be no more than 10 different Interest Periods for LIBOR Loans and LIBOR Margin
Loans, collectively outstanding at the same time.

Section 2.7. Repayment of Loans.

(a) Revolving Loans. The Borrower shall repay the entire outstanding principal amount
of, and all accrued but unpaid interest on, the Revolving Loans on the Termination Date.

(b) Bid Rate Loans. The Borrower shall repay the entire outstanding principal amount
of, and all accrued but unpaid interest on, each Bid Rate Loan on the last day of the Interest
Period of such Bid Rate Loan.

Section 2.8. Prepayments.

(a) Optional. Subject to Section 4.4., the Borrower may prepay any Loan (other than a
Bid Rate Loan) at any time without premium or penalty. A Bid Rate Loan may only be prepaid with
the prior written consent of the Lender holding such Bid Rate Loan. The Borrower shall give the
Administrative Agent at least three (3) Business Days prior written notice of the prepayment of any
Loan. Each voluntary prepayment of Loans shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and
integral multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof.

(b) Mandatory.

(i) Commitment Overadvance. If at any time the aggregate principal
amount of all outstanding Revolving Loans, Swingline Loans and Bid Rate Loans, together with
the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Liabilities, exceeds the aggregate amount of
the Commitments, the Borrower shall within one Business Day of demand pay to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders then holding Commitments (or if the
Commitments have been terminated, then holding outstanding Revolving Loans, Swingline Loans,
Bid Rate Loans and/or Letter of Credit Liabilities), the amount of such excess.

(ii) Bid Rate Facility Overadvance. If at any time the aggregate principal
amount of all outstanding Bid Rate Loans exceeds one-half of the aggregate amount of all
Commitments at such time, then the Borrower shall immediately pay to the Administrative
Agent for the accounts of the applicable Lenders the amount of such excess.

(iii) Application of Mandatory Prepayments. Amounts paid under the preceding
subsections (b)(i) and (b)(ii) shall be applied to pay all amounts of principal outstanding
on the Loans and any Reimbursement Obligations pro rata in accordance with Section 3.2. and
if any Letters of Credit are outstanding at such time, the remainder, if any, shall be
deposited into the Letter of Credit Collateral Account for application to any Reimbursement
Obligations. Amounts paid under the preceding subsection (b)(ii) shall be applied in
accordance with Section 3.2.(g). If the Borrower is required to pay any outstanding LIBOR
Loans or LIBOR Margin Loans by reason of this Section prior to the end of the applicable
Interest Period therefor, the Borrower shall pay all amounts due under Section 4.4.

 

- 37 -

 

Section 2.9. Continuation.

So long as no Default or Event of Default exists, the Borrower may on any Business Day, with
respect to any LIBOR Loan, elect to maintain such LIBOR Loan or any portion thereof as a LIBOR Loan
by selecting a new Interest Period for such LIBOR Loan. Each Continuation of a LIBOR Loan shall be
in an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $500,000 in excess of that
amount, and each new Interest Period selected under this Section shall commence on the last day of
the immediately preceding Interest Period. Each selection of a new Interest Period shall be made
by the Borrower giving to the Administrative Agent a Notice of Continuation not later than 9:00
a.m. Pacific time on the third Business Day prior to the date of any such Continuation. Such
notice by the Borrower of a Continuation shall be by telecopy, electronic mail or other similar
form of communication in the form of a Notice of Continuation, specifying (a) the proposed date of
such Continuation, (b) the LIBOR Loans and portions thereof subject to such Continuation and (c)
the duration of the selected Interest Period, all of which shall be specified in such manner as is
necessary to comply with all limitations on Loans outstanding hereunder. Each Notice of
Continuation shall be irrevocable by and binding on the Borrower once given. Promptly after
receipt of a Notice of Continuation, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the
proposed Continuation. If the Borrower shall fail to select in a timely manner a new Interest
Period for any LIBOR Loan in accordance with this Section, such Loan will automatically, on the
last day of the current Interest Period therefor, continue as a LIBOR Loan with an Interest Period
of one month; provided, however that if a Default or Event of Default exists, such Loan will
automatically, on the last day of the current Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate
Loan notwithstanding the first sentence of Section 2.10. or the Borrower’s failure to comply with
any of the terms of such Section.

Section 2.10. Conversion.

The Borrower may on any Business Day, upon the Borrower’s giving of a Notice of Conversion to
the Administrative Agent by telecopy, electronic mail or other similar form of communication,
Convert all or a portion of a Loan of one Type into a Loan of another Type; provided, however, a
Base Rate Loan may not be Converted into a LIBOR Loan if a Default or Event of Default exists.
Each Conversion of Base Rate Loans into LIBOR Loans shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of
$1,000,000 and integral multiples of $500,000 in excess of that amount. Each such Notice of
Conversion shall be given not later than 9:00 a.m. Pacific time 3 Business Days prior to the date
of any proposed Conversion. Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Conversion, the Administrative
Agent shall notify each Lender of the proposed Conversion. Subject to the restrictions specified
above, each Notice of Conversion shall be by telecopy, electronic mail or other similar form of
communication in the form of a Notice of Conversion specifying (a) the requested date of such
Conversion, (b) the Type of Loan to be Converted, (c) the portion of such Type of Loan to be
Converted, (d) the Type of Loan such Loan is to be Converted into and (e) if such Conversion is
into a LIBOR Loan, the requested duration of the Interest Period of such Loan. Each Notice of
Conversion shall be irrevocable by and binding on the Borrower once given.

Section 2.11. Notes.

(a) Notes. The Revolving Loans made by each Revolving Lender shall, in addition to
this Agreement, also be evidenced by a Revolving Note, payable to the order of such Revolving
Lender in a principal amount equal to the amount of its Commitment as originally in effect and
otherwise duly completed. The Bid Rate Loans made by a Revolving Lender to the Borrower shall, in
addition to this Agreement, also be evidenced by a Bid Rate Note payable to the order of such
Revolving Lender. The Swingline Loans made by the Swingline Lender to the Borrower shall, in
addition to this Agreement, also be evidenced by a Swingline Note payable to the order of the
Swingline Lender.

 

- 38 -

 

(b) Records. The date, amount, interest rate, Type and duration of Interest Periods
(if applicable) of each Loan made by each Lender to the Borrower, and each payment made on account
of the principal thereof, shall be recorded by such Lender on its books and such entries shall be
binding on the Borrower absent manifest error; provided, however, that (i) the failure of a Lender
to make any such record shall not affect the obligations of the Borrower under any of the Loan
Documents and (ii) if there is a discrepancy between such records of a Lender and the statements of
accounts maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 3.8., in the absence of
manifest error, the statements of account maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to
Section 3.8. shall be controlling.

(c) Lost, Stolen, Destroyed or Mutilated Notes. Upon receipt by the Borrower of (i)
written notice from a Lender that a Note of such Lender has been lost, stolen, destroyed or
mutilated, and (ii)(A) in the case of loss, theft or destruction, an unsecured agreement of
indemnity from such Lender in form reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower, or (B) in the case of
mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of such Note, the Borrower shall at its own expense
execute and deliver to such Lender a new Note dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or
mutilated Note.

Section 2.12. Voluntary Reductions of the Commitment.

The Borrower shall have the right to terminate or reduce the aggregate unused amount of the
Commitments (for which purpose use of the Commitments shall be deemed to include the aggregate
amount of all Letter of Credit Liabilities and the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding
Bid Rate Loans and Swingline Loans) at any time and from time to time without penalty or premium
upon not less than five (5) Business Days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent of each
such termination or reduction, which notice shall specify the effective date thereof and the amount
of any such reduction (which in the case of any partial reduction of the Commitments shall not be
less than $10,000,000 and integral multiples of $5,000,000 in excess of that amount in the
aggregate) and shall be irrevocable once given and effective only upon receipt by the
Administrative Agent (“Commitment Reduction Notice”); provided, however, the Borrower may not
reduce the aggregate amount of the Commitments below $200,000,000 unless the Borrower is
terminating the Commitments in full. Promptly after receipt of a Commitment Reduction Notice the
Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the proposed termination or Commitment reduction.
The Commitments, once reduced or terminated pursuant to this Section, may not be increased or
reinstated. The Borrower shall pay all interest and fees on the Revolving Loans accrued to the
date of such reduction or termination of the Commitments to the Administrative Agent for the
account of the Revolving Lenders, including but not limited to any applicable compensation due to
each Revolving Lender in accordance with Section 4.4.

Section 2.13. Extension of Termination Date.

The Borrower shall have the right, exercisable one time, to request that the Administrative
Agent and the Revolving Lenders agree to extend the Termination Date by one year. The Borrower may
exercise such right only by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent at least 90 days
but not more than 180 days prior to the current Termination Date, a written request for such
extension (an “Extension Request”). The Administrative Agent shall notify the Revolving Lenders if
it receives an Extension Request promptly upon receipt thereof. Subject to satisfaction of the
following conditions, the Termination Date shall be extended for one year effective upon receipt by
the Administrative Agent of the Extension Request and payment of the fee referred to in the
following clause (ii): (i) (x) no Default or Event of Default shall exist and (y) the
representations and warranties made or deemed made by the Borrower and each other Loan Party in the
Loan Documents to which any of them is a party, shall be true and correct in all material respects
(except in the case of a representation or warranty qualified by materiality, in which case such
representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all respects) on and as of the date of such
extension with the same force and effect as if made on and as of such date

 

- 39 -

 

 except to the extent that such representations and warranties expressly relate solely to an earlier date (in
which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all material
respects on and as of such earlier date) and except for changes in factual circumstances
specifically and expressly permitted under the Loan Documents and (ii) the Borrower shall have paid
the Fees payable under Section 3.5.(e). At any time prior to the effectiveness of any such
extension, upon the Administrative Agent’s request, the Borrower shall deliver to the
Administrative Agent a certificate from a Responsible Officer certifying the matters referred to in
the immediately preceding clauses (i)(x) and (i)(y).

Section 2.14. Expiration of Maturity Date of Letters of Credit Past Termination Date.

If on the date the Commitments are terminated or reduced to zero (whether voluntarily, by
reason of the occurrence of an Event of Default or otherwise), there are any Letters of Credit
outstanding hereunder, the Borrower shall, on such date, pay to the Administrative Agent, for its
benefit and the benefit of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, an amount of money sufficient to cause
the balance of available funds on deposit in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account to equal the
aggregate Stated Amount of such Letters of Credit for deposit into the Letter of Credit Collateral
Account.

Section 2.15. Amount Limitations.

Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, no Lender shall
be required to make a Loan, no Revolving Lender shall make any Bid Rate Loan, the Issuing Bank
shall not be required to issue a Letter of Credit and no reduction of the Commitments pursuant to
Section 2.12. shall take effect, if immediately after the making of such Loan, the issuance of such
Letter of Credit or such reduction in the Commitments:

(a) the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Revolving Loans, Bid Rate Loans and
Swingline Loans, together with the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Liabilities, would
exceed the aggregate amount of the Commitments at such time; or

(b) the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Bid Rate Loans would exceed 50.0% of the
aggregate amount of the Commitments at such time; or

(c) the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Loans, together with aggregate amount of
all Letter of Credit Liabilities, would exceed the aggregate amount of the Commitments at such
time.

Section 2.16. Increase in Commitments.

The Borrower shall have the right to request increases in the aggregate amount of the
Commitments by providing written notice to the Administrative Agent, which notice shall be
irrevocable once given; provided, however, that after giving effect to any such
increases the aggregate amount of the Commitments shall not exceed $1,350,000,000.00. Each such
increase in the Commitments must be an aggregate minimum amount of $25,000,000.00 and integral
multiples of $5,000,000.00 in excess thereof. The Administrative Agent, in consultation with the
Borrower, shall manage all aspects of the syndication of such increase in the Commitments,
including decisions as to the selection of the existing Lenders and/or other banks, financial
institutions and other institutional lenders to be approached with respect to such increase and the
allocations of the increase in the Commitments among such existing Lenders and/or other banks,
financial institutions and other institutional lenders. No Lender shall be obligated in any way
whatsoever to increase its Commitment or provide a new Commitment, and any new Lender becoming a
party to this Agreement in connection with any such requested increase must be an Eligible
Assignee. If a new Lender becomes a party to this Agreement, or if any existing Lender is
increasing its Commitment, such Lender shall on the date it becomes a Lender hereunder (or in the
case of an

 

- 40 -

 

existing Lender, increases its Commitment) (and as a condition thereto) purchase from the other Lenders its
Commitment Percentage (determined with respect to the Lenders’ respective Commitments and after
giving effect to the increase of Commitments) of any outstanding Revolving Loans, by making
available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such other Lenders, in same day funds, an
amount equal to the sum of (A) the portion of the outstanding principal amount of such Revolving
Loans to be purchased by such Lender, plus (B) the aggregate amount of payments previously
made by the other Revolving Lenders under Section 2.3.(j) that have not been repaid, plus
(C) interest accrued and unpaid to and as of such date on such portion of the outstanding principal
amount of such Revolving Loans. The Borrower shall pay to the Revolving Lenders amounts payable,
if any, to such Revolving Lenders under Section 4.4. as a result of the prepayment of any such
Revolving Loans. Effecting the increase of the Commitments under this Section is subject to the
following conditions precedent: (x) no Default or Event of Default shall be in existence on the
effective date of such increase, (y) the representations and warranties made or deemed made by the
Borrower or any other Loan Party in any Loan Document to which such Loan Party is a party shall be
true and correct on the effective date of such increase except to the extent that such
representations and warranties expressly relate solely to an earlier date (in which case such
representations and warranties shall have been true and correct on and as of such earlier date) and
except for changes in factual circumstances specifically and expressly permitted hereunder, and (z)
the Administrative Agent shall have received each of the following, in form and substance
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent: (i) if not previously delivered to the Administrative
Agent, copies certified by the Secretary or Assistant Secretary of (A) all corporate or other
necessary action taken by the Borrower to authorize such increase and (B) all corporate or other
necessary action taken by each Guarantor authorizing the guaranty of such increase; and (ii) an
opinion of counsel to the Borrower and the Guarantors, and addressed to the Administrative Agent
and the Lenders covering such matters as reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent; and
(iii) new Revolving Notes executed by the Borrower, payable to any new Revolving Lenders and
replacement Revolving Notes executed by the Borrower, payable to any existing Revolving Lenders
increasing their Commitments, in the amount of such Revolving Lender’s Commitment at the time of
the effectiveness of the applicable increase in the aggregate amount of the Commitments. In
connection with any increase in the aggregate amount of the Commitments pursuant to this Section
2.16. any Lender becoming a party hereto shall execute such documents and agreements as the
Administrative Agent may reasonably request.

Section 2.17. Funds Transfer Disbursements.

(a) Generally. The Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to disburse
the proceeds of any Loan made by the Lenders or any of their Affiliates pursuant to the Loan
Documents as requested by an authorized representative of the Borrower to any of the accounts
designated in the Transfer Authorizer Designation Form. The Borrower agrees to be bound by any
transfer request: (i) authorized or transmitted by the Borrower; or (ii) made in the Borrower’s
name and accepted by the Administrative Agent in good faith and in compliance with these transfer
instructions, even if not properly authorized by the Borrower. The Borrower further agrees and
acknowledges that the Administrative Agent may rely solely on any bank routing number or
identifying bank account number or name provided by the Borrower to effect a wire or funds transfer
even if the information provided by the Borrower identifies a different bank or account holder than
named by the Borrower. The Administrative Agent is not obligated or required in any way to take
any actions to detect errors in information provided by the Borrower. If the Administrative Agent
takes any actions in an attempt to detect errors in the transmission or content of transfer
requests or takes any actions in an attempt to detect unauthorized funds transfer requests, the
Borrower agrees that no matter how many times the Administrative Agent takes these actions the
Administrative Agent will not in any situation be liable for failing to take or correctly perform
these actions in the future and such actions shall not become any part of the transfer disbursement
procedures authorized under this provision, the Loan Documents, or any agreement between the
Administrative Agent and the Borrower. The Borrower agrees to notify the Administrative Agent of
any errors in the transfer of any funds or of any unauthorized or improperly authorized transfer
requests within fourteen (14) days after the Administrative Agent’s confirmation to the Borrower of
such transfer.

 

- 41 -

 

(b) Funds Transfer. The Administrative Agent will, in its sole discretion, determine
the funds transfer system and the means by which each transfer will be made. The Administrative
Agent may delay or refuse to accept a funds transfer request if the transfer would: (i) violate the
terms of this authorization, (ii) require use of a bank unacceptable to the Administrative Agent or
any Lender or prohibited by any Governmental Authority, (iii) cause the Administrative Agent or any
Lender to violate any Federal Reserve or other regulatory risk control program or guideline or (iv)
otherwise cause the Administrative Agent or any Lender to violate any Applicable Law or regulation.

(c) Limitation of Liability. None of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or
any Lender shall be liable to the Borrower or any other parties for (i) errors, acts or failures to
act of others, including other entities, banks, communications carriers or clearinghouses, through
which the Borrower’s transfers may be made or information received or transmitted, and no such
entity shall be deemed an agent of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender, (ii)
any loss, liability or delay caused by fires, earthquakes, wars, civil disturbances, power surges
or failures, acts of government, labor disputes, failures in communications networks, legal
constraints or other events beyond Administrative Agent’s, Issuing Bank’s or any Lender’s control,
or (iii) any special, consequential, indirect or punitive damages, whether or not (x) any claim for
these damages is based on tort or contract or (y) the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, any
Lender or the Borrower knew or should have known the likelihood of these damages in any situation.
Neither the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank nor any Lender makes any representations or
warranties other than those expressly made in this Agreement.

Article III. Payments, Fees and Other General Provisions

Section 3.1. Payments.

(a) Payments by Borrower. Except to the extent otherwise provided herein, all
payments of principal, interest, Fees and other amounts to be made by the Borrower under this
Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document shall be made in Dollars, in immediately available
funds, without setoff, deduction or counterclaim, to the Administrative Agent at the Principal
Office, not later than 11:00 a.m. Pacific time on the date on which such payment shall become due
(each such payment made after such time on such due date to be deemed to have been made on the next
succeeding Business Day). Subject to Section 10.5., the Borrower shall, at the time of making each
payment under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, specify to the Administrative Agent the
amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder to which such payment is to be applied. Each payment
received by the Administrative Agent for the account of a Lender under this Agreement or any Note
shall be paid to such Lender by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with the
wiring instructions provided by such Lender to the Administrative Agent from time to time, for the
account of such Lender at the applicable Lending Office of such Lender. Each payment received by
the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement shall be paid to
the Issuing Bank by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with the wiring
instructions provided by the Issuing Bank to the Administrative Agent from time to time, for the
account of the Issuing Bank. In the event the Administrative Agent fails to pay such amounts to
such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, within one Business Day of receipt of such
amounts, the Administrative Agent shall pay interest on such amount until paid at a rate per annum
equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. If the due date of any payment under
this Agreement or any other Loan Document would otherwise fall on a day which is not a Business Day
such date shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and interest shall continue to
accrue at the rate, if any, applicable to such payment for the period of such extension.

 

- 42 -

 

(b) Presumptions Regarding Payments by Borrower. 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 may assume that the Borrower has made such
payment on such date in accordance herewith and may (but shall not be obligated to), in reliance
upon such assumption, 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 on
demand that 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 Rate and a rate determined
by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

Section 3.2. Pro Rata Treatment.

Except to the extent otherwise provided herein: (a) each borrowing from the Revolving Lenders
under Sections 2.1.(a), 2.3.(e) and 2.4.(e) shall be made from the Revolving Lenders, each payment
of the fees under Sections 3.5.(a), 3.5.(b), the first sentence of 3.5.(c), and 3.5.(e) shall be
made for the account of the Revolving Lenders, and each termination or reduction of the amount of
the Commitments under Section 2.12. shall be applied to the respective Commitments of the Revolving
Lenders, pro rata according to the amounts of their respective Commitments; (b) each payment or
prepayment of principal of Revolving Loans shall be made for the account of the Revolving Lenders
pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of the Revolving Loans held by
them, provided that, subject to Section 3.9., if immediately prior to giving effect to any such
payment in respect of any Revolving Loans the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans
shall not be held by the Revolving Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitments
in effect at the time such Revolving Loans were made, then such payment shall be applied to the
Revolving Loans in such manner as shall result, as nearly as is practicable, in the outstanding
principal amount of the Revolving Loans being held by the Revolving Lenders pro rata in accordance
with their respective Commitments; (c) each payment of interest on Revolving Loans shall be made
for the account of the Revolving Lenders, pro rata in accordance with the amounts of interest on
such Revolving Loans, then due and payable to the respective Lenders; (d) the making, Conversion
and Continuation of Revolving Loans of a particular Type (other than Conversions provided for by
Sections 4.1.(c) and 4.5.) shall be made pro rata among the Revolving Lenders, according to the
amounts of their respective Revolving Loans, and the then current Interest Period for each Lender’s
portion of each such Loan of such Type shall be coterminous; (e) each prepayment of principal of
Bid Rate Loans by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.8.(b)(ii) shall be made for account of the
Lenders then owed Bid Rate Loans pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal
amounts of the Bid Rate Loans then owing to each such Lender; (f) the Revolving Lenders’
participation in, and payment obligations in respect of, Swingline Loans under Section 2.4., shall
be in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages; and (g) the Revolving Lenders’
participation in, and payment obligations in respect of, Letters of Credit under Section 2.3.,
shall be in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages. All payments of principal,
interest, fees and other amounts in respect of the Swingline Loans shall be for the account of the
Swingline Lender only (except to the extent any Lender shall have acquired a participating interest
in any such Swingline Loan pursuant to Section 2.4.(e), in which case such payments shall be pro
rata in accordance with such participating interests).

Section 3.3. Sharing of Payments, Etc.

If a Lender shall obtain payment of any principal of, or interest on, any Loan made by it to
the Borrower under this Agreement or shall obtain payment on any other Obligation owing by the
Borrower or any other Loan Party through the exercise of any right of set-off, banker’s lien,
counterclaim or similar
right or otherwise or through voluntary prepayments directly to a Lender or other payments made by
or on behalf the Borrower or any other Loan Party to a Lender (other than any payment in respect of
Specified Derivatives Obligations) not in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and such
payment should be distributed to the Lenders in accordance with Section 3.2. or Section 10.5., as
applicable, such Lender shall promptly purchase from the other Lenders participations in (or, if
and to the extent specified by such Lender, direct interests in) the Loans made by the other
Lenders or other Obligations owed to such other Lenders in such amounts, and make such other
adjustments from time to time as shall be equitable, to the end that all the Lenders shall share
the benefit of such payment (net of any reasonable expenses which may actually be incurred by such
Lender in obtaining or preserving such benefit) in accordance with the requirements of Section 3.2.
or Section 10.5., as applicable. To such end, all the Lenders shall make appropriate adjustments
among themselves (by the resale of participations sold or otherwise) if such payment is rescinded
or must otherwise be restored. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation
(or direct interest) in the Loans or other Obligations owed to such other Lenders may exercise all
rights of set-off, banker’s lien, counterclaim or similar rights with respect to such participation
as fully as if such Lender were a direct holder of Loans in the amount of such participation.
Nothing contained herein shall require any Lender to exercise any such right or shall affect the
right of any Lender to exercise and retain the benefits of exercising, any such right with respect
to any other indebtedness or obligation of the Borrower.

Section 3.4. Several Obligations.

No Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make a Loan or to
perform any other obligation to be made or performed by such other Lender hereunder, and the
failure of any Lender to make a Loan or to perform any other obligation to be made or performed by
it hereunder shall not relieve the obligation of any other Lender to make any Loan or to perform
any other obligation to be made or performed by such other Lender.

Section 3.5. Fees.

(a) Closing Fee. On the Effective Date, the Borrower agrees to pay to the
Administrative Agent and each Lender all loan fees as have been agreed to in writing by the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

(b) Facility Fees. During the period from the Effective Date to but excluding the
Termination Date, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the
Revolving Lenders a facility fee equal to the daily aggregate amount of the Commitments (whether or
not utilized) times a rate equal to (i) the Applicable Facility Fee divided by (ii) 360. Such fee
shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of each March, June, September and December
during the term of this Agreement and, if such date is not the last day of March, June, September,
or December, on the Termination Date or any earlier date of termination of the Commitments or
reduction of the Commitments to zero. The Borrower acknowledges that the fee payable hereunder is
a bona fide commitment fee and is intended as reasonable compensation to the Lenders for committing
to make funds available to the Borrower as described herein and for no other purposes.

(c) Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for
the account of each Revolving Lender a letter of credit fee at a rate per annum equal to the
Applicable Margin for LIBOR Loans times the daily average Stated Amount of each Letter of Credit
for the period from and including the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit (x) to and
including the date such Letter of Credit expires or is cancelled or (y) to but excluding the date
such Letter of Credit is drawn in full. In addition to such fees, the Borrower shall pay to the
Issuing Bank solely for its own account, a fronting fee in respect of each Letter of Credit equal
to one-

 

- 44 -

 

eighth of one percent (0.125% %) of the initial Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit; provided, however, in no event shall the aggregate
amount of such fee in respect of any Letter of Credit be less than $500. The fees provided for in
this subsection shall be nonrefundable and payable, in the case of the fee provided for in the
first sentence, in arrears (i) quarterly on the last day of each March, June, September and
December, (ii) if such date is not the last day of March, June, September, or December on the
Termination Date, (iii) on the date the Commitments are terminated or reduced to zero and (iv)
thereafter from time to time on demand of the Administrative Agent and in the case of the fee
provided for in the second sentence, at the time of issuance of such Letter of Credit. The
Borrower shall pay directly to the Issuing Bank from time to time on demand all commissions,
charges, costs and expenses in the amounts customarily charged or incurred by the Issuing Bank from
time to time in like circumstances with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of
any Letter of Credit or any other transaction relating thereto.

(d) Bid Rate Loan Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent a fee
equal to $2,000 at the time of each Bid Rate Quote Request made hereunder for services rendered by
the Administrative Agent in connection with the Bid Rate Loans.

(e) Revolving Credit Extension Fee. If the Borrower exercises its right to extend the
Termination Date in accordance with Section 2.13., the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative
Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a fee equal to 0.175% of the amount of such
Revolving Lender’s Commitment (whether or not utilized). Such fee shall be due and payable in full
on the date the Administrative Agent receives the Extension Request pursuant to such Section.

(f) Administrative and Other Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay the administrative and
other fees of the Administrative Agent as provided in the Fee Letter and as may be otherwise agreed
to in writing from time to time by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

Section 3.6. Computations.

Unless otherwise expressly set forth herein, any accrued interest on any Loan, any Fees or any
other Obligations due hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and the actual
number of days elapsed.

Section 3.7. Usury.

In no event shall the amount of interest due or payable on the Loans or other Obligations
exceed the maximum rate of interest allowed by Applicable Law and, if any such payment is paid by
the Borrower or any other Loan Party or received by any Lender, then such excess sum shall be
credited as a payment of principal, unless the Borrower shall notify the respective Lender in
writing that the Borrower elects to have such excess sum returned to it forthwith. It is the
express intent of the parties hereto that the Borrower not pay and the Lenders not receive,
directly or indirectly, in any manner whatsoever, interest in excess of that which may be lawfully
paid by the Borrower under Applicable Law. The parties hereto hereby agree and stipulate that the
only charge imposed upon the Borrower for the use of money in connection with this Agreement is and
shall be the interest specifically described in Section 2.5.(a)(i) through (iv) and, with respect
to Swingline Loans, in Section 2.4.(c). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties hereto further
agree and stipulate that all agency fees, syndication fees, facility fees, closing fees, letter of
credit fees, underwriting fees, default charges, late charges, funding or “breakage” charges,
increased cost charges, attorneys’ fees and reimbursement for costs and expenses paid by the
Administrative Agent or any Lender to third parties or for damages incurred by the Administrative
Agent or any Lender, in each case, in connection with the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents, are charges made to compensate the Administrative Agent or
any such Lender for underwriting or administrative services and costs or losses performed or
incurred, and to be performed or
incurred, by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with this Agreement and shall
under no circumstances be deemed to be charges for the use of money. All charges other than
charges for the use of money shall be fully earned and nonrefundable when due.

 

- 45 -

 

Section 3.8. Statements of Account.

The Administrative Agent will account to the Borrower monthly with a statement of Loans,
accrued interest and Fees, charges and payments made pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents, and such account rendered by the Administrative Agent shall be deemed conclusive upon
the Borrower absent manifest error. The failure of the Administrative Agent to deliver such a
statement of accounts shall not relieve or discharge the Borrower from any of its obligations
hereunder.

Section 3.9. Defaulting Lenders.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Revolving Lender
becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Revolving Lender is no longer a
Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law:

(a) Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove
any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in
the definition of Requisite Lenders.

(b) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, Fees or other
amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether
voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article X. or otherwise) or received by the
Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 3.3. shall be applied at such
time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the
payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder;
second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender
to the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender hereunder; third, to Cash Collateralize the
Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with
subsection (e) below; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event
of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has
failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the
Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower,
to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting
Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y)
Cash Collateralize the Issuing Bank’s future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting
Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with
subsection (e) below; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the
Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender against such
Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this
Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any
amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction
obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s
breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as
otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment
is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender under
Section 2.3.(j) in respect of Letters of Credit (such amounts “L/C Disbursements”), in respect of
which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were
made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in
Article V. were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and
L/C

 

- 46 -

 

Disbursements owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or L/C Disbursements owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time
as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letter of Credit Liabilities and Swingline
Loans are held by the Revolving Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitment
Percentages (determined without giving effect to the immediately following subsection (d)). Any
payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or
held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this
subsection shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender
irrevocably consents hereto.

(c) Certain Fees.

(i) No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Fee payable under Section
3.5.(b) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower
shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have
been paid to that Defaulting Lender).

(ii) Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Fee payable under Section
3.5.(c) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent
allocable to its Commitment Percentage of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which
it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to the immediately following subsection (e).

(iii) With respect to any Fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant
to the immediately preceding clauses (i) or (ii), the Borrower shall (x) pay to each
Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such Fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting
Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letter of Credit
Liabilities or Swingline Loans that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender
pursuant to the immediately following subsection (d), (y) pay to each Issuing Bank and
Swingline Lender, as applicable, the amount of any such Fee otherwise payable to such
Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such Issuing Bank’s or Swingline Lender’s
Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining
amount of any such Fee.

(d) Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of
such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letter of Credit Liabilities and Swingline Loans shall be
reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitment
Percentages (determined without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the
extent that (x) the conditions set forth in Article V. are satisfied at the time of such
reallocation (and, unless the Borrower shall have otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at
such time, the Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are
satisfied at such time), and (y) such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Revolving Credit
Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitment. No
reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder
against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Revolving Lender having become a Defaulting Lender,
including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s
increased exposure following such reallocation.

(e) Cash Collateral, Repayment of Swingline Loans.

(i) If the reallocation described in the immediately preceding subsection (d) above
cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, without prejudice to any
right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, (x) first, prepay Swingline Loans in
an amount equal to the Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure and (y) second, Cash
Collateralize the Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set
forth in this subsection.

 

- 47 -

 

(ii) At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within 2 Business Days
following the written request of the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank (with a copy
to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize the Issuing Bank’s
Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving effect to
the immediately preceding subsection (d) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting
Lender) in an amount not less than the aggregate Fronting Exposure of the Issuing Bank with
respect to Letters of Credit issued and outstanding at such time.

(iii) The Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such
Defaulting Lender, hereby grant to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing
Bank, and agree to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash Collateral
as security for the Defaulting Lenders’ obligation to fund participations in respect of
Letter of Credit Liabilities, to be applied pursuant to the immediately following clause
(iv). If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to
any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank as
herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the aggregate
Fronting Exposure of the Issuing Bank with respect to Letters of Credit issued and
outstanding at such time, the Borrower will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative
Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount
sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided
by the Defaulting Lender).

(iv) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash
Collateral provided under this Section in respect of Letters of Credit shall be applied to
the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of
Letter of Credit Liabilities (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting
Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) for which the Cash Collateral was so
provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for
herein.

(v) Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce the Issuing
Bank’s Fronting Exposure shall no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant
to this subsection following (x) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure
(including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Revolving
Lender), or (y) the determination by the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank that
there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided that, subject to the immediately
preceding subsection (b), the Person providing Cash Collateral and the Issuing Bank may
agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or
other obligations and provided further that to the extent that such Cash
Collateral was provided by the Borrower, such Cash Collateral shall remain subject to the
security interest granted pursuant to the Loan Documents.

(f) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Swingline
Lender and the Issuing Bank agree in writing in their reasonable discretion that a Revolving Lender
is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto,
whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth
therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Revolving Lender
will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other
Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to
cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans to
be held pro rata by the Revolving Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitment
Percentages (determined without giving effect to the immediately preceding subsection (d)),
whereupon such Revolving Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no
adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to Fees accrued or payments made by or on
behalf of the Borrower while that Revolving Lender was a Defaulting Lender;
and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the
affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Revolving Lender will constitute a
waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Revolving Lender’s having
been a Defaulting Lender.

 

- 48 -

 

(g) New Swingline Loans/Letters of Credit. So long as any Revolving Lender is a
Defaulting Lender, (i) the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loans
unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect to such Swingline
Loan and (ii) the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter
of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect
thereto.

Section 3.10. Taxes; Foreign Lenders.

(a) Taxes Generally. All payments by the Borrower of principal of, and interest on,
the Loans and all other Obligations shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any
present or future excise, stamp or other taxes, fees, duties, levies, imposts, charges, deductions,
withholdings or other charges of any nature whatsoever imposed by any taxing authority, but
excluding (i) franchise taxes, (ii) any taxes (other than withholding taxes) that would not be
imposed but for a connection between the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or a Lender and the
jurisdiction imposing such taxes (other than a connection arising solely by virtue of the
activities of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Lender pursuant to or in respect
of this Agreement or any other Loan Document), (iii) any taxes imposed on or measured by the
Issuing Bank’s or any Lender’s assets, net income, receipts or branch profits, (iv) any taxes,
fees, duties, levies, imposts, charges, deductions, withholdings or other charges arising after the
Agreement Date solely as a result of or attributable to a Lender changing its designated Lending
Office after the date such Lender becomes a party hereto, and (v) any taxes imposed by Sections
1471 through Section 1474 of the Internal Revenue Code (including any official interpretations
thereof, collectively “FATCA”) on any “withholdable payment” payable to such recipient as a result
of the failure of such recipient to satisfy the applicable requirements as set forth in FATCA after
December 31, 2012 (such non-excluded items being collectively called “Taxes”). If any withholding
or deduction from any payment to be made by the Borrower hereunder is required in respect of any
Taxes pursuant to any Applicable Law, then the Borrower will:

(i) pay directly to the relevant Governmental Authority the full amount required to be
so withheld or deducted;

(ii) promptly forward to the Administrative Agent an official receipt or other
documentation satisfactory to the Administrative Agent evidencing such payment to such
Governmental Authority; and

(iii) pay to the Administrative Agent for its account or the account of the applicable
Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as is
necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by the Administrative Agent, the
Issuing Bank or such Lender will equal the full amount that the Administrative Agent, the
Issuing Bank or such Lender would have received had no such withholding or deduction been
required.

(b) Tax Indemnification. If the Borrower fails to pay any Taxes when due to the
appropriate Governmental Authority or fails to remit to the Administrative Agent, for its account
or the account of the Issuing Bank or respective Lender, as the case may be, the required receipts
or other required documentary evidence, the Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the
Issuing Bank and the Lenders for any incremental Taxes, interest or penalties that may become
payable by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender as a result of any such
failure. For purposes of this Section, a
distribution hereunder by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to or for the account of any
Lender shall be deemed a payment by the Borrower.

 

- 49 -

 

(c) Tax Forms. Prior to the date that any Lender or Participant organized under the
laws of a jurisdiction other than that in which the Borrower is a resident for tax purposes becomes
a party hereto, such Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent such
certificates, documents or other evidence, as required by the Internal Revenue Code or Treasury
Regulations issued pursuant thereto (including Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8ECI and W-8BEN, as
applicable, or appropriate successor forms), properly completed, currently effective and duly
executed by such Lender or Participant establishing that payments to it hereunder and under the
Notes are (i) not subject to United States Federal backup withholding tax and (ii) not subject to
United States Federal withholding tax under the Internal Revenue Code. Each such Lender or
Participant shall, to the extent it may lawfully do so, (x) deliver further copies of such forms or
other appropriate certifications on or before the date that any such forms expire or become
obsolete and after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form delivered
to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent and (y) obtain such extensions of the time for filing,
and renew such forms and certifications thereof, as may be reasonably requested by the Borrower or
the Administrative Agent. The Borrower shall not be required to pay any amount pursuant to the
last sentence of subsection (a) above to any Lender or Participant that is organized under the laws
of a jurisdiction other than that in which the Borrower is a resident for tax purposes or the
Administrative Agent, if it is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction other than that in which
the Borrower is a resident for tax purposes, if such Lender, such Participant or the Administrative
Agent, as applicable, fails to comply with the requirements of this subsection. If any such Lender
or Participant, to the extent it may lawfully do so, fails to deliver the above forms or other
documentation, then the Administrative Agent may withhold from such payment to such Lender such
amounts as are required by the Internal Revenue Code. If any Governmental Authority asserts that
the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold or backup withhold, as the case may be, any tax
or other amount from payments made to or for the account of any Lender, such Lender shall indemnify
the Administrative Agent therefor, including all penalties and interest, any taxes imposed by any
jurisdiction on the amounts payable to the Administrative Agent under this Section, and costs and
expenses (including all reasonable fees and disbursements of any law firm or other external counsel
and the allocated cost of internal legal services and all disbursements of internal counsel) of the
Administrative Agent. The obligation of the Lenders under this Section shall survive the
termination of the Commitments, repayment of all Obligations and the resignation or replacement of
the Administrative Agent.

(d) USA Patriot Act Notice; Compliance. In order for the Administrative Agent to
comply with the USA Patriot Act of 2001 (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26,
2001)), prior to any Lender or Participant that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction
outside of the United States of America becoming a party hereto, the Administrative Agent may
request, and such Lender or Participant shall provide to the Administrative Agent, its name,
address, tax identification number and/or such other identification information as shall be
necessary for the Administrative Agent to comply with federal law.

Article IV. Yield Protection, Etc.

Section 4.1. Additional Costs; Capital Adequacy.

(a) Capital Adequacy. If on or after the Agreement Date any Lender or any Participant
determines that compliance with any law or regulation or with any guideline or request from any
central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), regardless
of whether arising from a Regulatory Change or not, affects or would affect the amount of capital
required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or such Participant, or any corporation
controlling such Lender
or such Participant, as a consequence of, or with reference to, such Lender’s Commitments or its
making or maintaining Loans or participating in Letters of Credit below the rate which such Lender
or such Participant or such corporation controlling such Lender or such Participant could have
achieved but for such compliance (taking into account the policies of such Lender or such
Participant or such corporation with regard to capital), then the Borrower shall, from time to
time, within thirty (30) days after written demand by such Lender or such Participant, pay to such
Lender or such Participant additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or such
Participant or such corporation controlling such Lender or such Participant to the extent that such
Lender or such Participant determines such increase in capital is allocable to such Lender’s or
such Participant’s obligations hereunder.

 

- 50 -

 

(b) Additional Costs. In addition to, and not in limitation of the immediately
preceding subsection, the Borrower shall promptly pay to the Administrative Agent for the account
of a Lender from time to time such amounts as such Lender may determine to be necessary to
compensate such Lender for any costs incurred by such Lender that it determines are attributable to
its making or maintaining of any LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Margin Loans or its obligation to make any
LIBOR Loans hereunder, any reduction in any amount receivable by such Lender under this Agreement
or any of the other Loan Documents in respect of any of such LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Margin Loans or
such obligation or the maintenance by such Lender of capital in respect of its LIBOR Loans or LIBOR
Margin Loans or its Commitments (such increases in costs and reductions in amounts receivable being
herein called “Additional Costs”), resulting from any Regulatory Change that: (i) changes the
basis of taxation of any amounts payable to such Lender under this Agreement or any of the other
Loan Documents in respect of any of such LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Margin Loans or its Commitments
(other than taxes imposed on or measured by the overall net income of such Lender or of its Lending
Office for any of such LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Margin Loans by the jurisdiction in which such Lender
has its principal office or such Lending Office), or (ii) imposes or modifies any reserve, special
deposit or similar requirements (other than Regulation D of the Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System or other similar reserve requirement applicable to any other category of liabilities
or category of extensions of credit or other assets by reference to which the interest rate on
LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Margin Loans is determined to the extent utilized when determining LIBOR for
such Loans) relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other
liabilities of, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by such Lender (or
its parent corporation), or any commitment of such Lender (including, without limitation, the
Commitments of such Lender hereunder) or (iii) has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of
return on capital of such Lender to a level below that which such Lender could have achieved but
for such Regulatory Change (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies with respect to
capital adequacy).

(c) Lender’s Suspension of LIBOR Loans and LIBOR Margin Loans. Without limiting the
effect of the provisions of the immediately preceding subsection (a) and (b), if by reason of any
Regulatory Change, any Lender either (i) incurs Additional Costs based on or measured by the excess
above a specified level of the amount of a category of deposits or other liabilities of such Lender
that includes deposits by reference to which the interest rate on LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Margin Loans
is determined as provided in this Agreement or a category of extensions of credit or other assets
of such Lender that includes LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Margin Loans or (ii) becomes subject to
restrictions on the amount of such a category of liabilities or assets that it may hold, then, if
such Lender so elects by notice to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the
obligation of such Lender to make or Continue, or to Convert Base Rate Loans into, LIBOR Loans
and/or the obligation of a Revolving Lender that has outstanding a Bid Rate Quote to make LIBOR
Margin Loans hereunder shall be suspended until such Regulatory Change ceases to be in effect (in
which case the provisions of Section 4.5. shall apply).

 

- 51 -

 

(d) Additional Costs in Respect of Letters of Credit. Without limiting the
obligations of the Borrower under the preceding subsections of this Section (but without
duplication), if as a result of any
Regulatory Change or any risk-based capital guideline or other requirement heretofore or hereafter
issued by any Governmental Authority there shall be imposed, modified or deemed applicable any tax,
reserve, special deposit, capital adequacy or similar requirement against or with respect to or
measured by reference to Letters of Credit and the result shall be to increase the cost to the
Issuing Bank of issuing (or any Lender of purchasing participations in) or maintaining its
obligation hereunder to issue (or purchase participations in) any Letter of Credit or reduce any
amount receivable by the Issuing Bank or any Lender hereunder in respect of any Letter of Credit,
then, upon demand by the Issuing Bank or such Lender, the Borrower shall pay promptly to the
Issuing Bank or, in the case of such Lender, in each case within 3 Business Days of demand, to the
Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender, from time to time as specified by the Issuing
Bank or such Lender, such additional amounts as shall be sufficient to compensate the Issuing Bank
or such Lender for such increased costs or reductions in amount.

(e) Notification and Determination of Additional Costs. Each of the Administrative
Agent, Issuing Bank, each Lender, and each Participant, as the case may be, agrees to notify the
Borrower of any event occurring after the Agreement Date entitling the Administrative Agent, the
Issuing Bank, such Lender or such Participant to compensation under any of the preceding
subsections of this Section as promptly as practicable; provided, however, that the failure of the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, any Lender or any Participant to give such notice shall not
release the Borrower from any of its obligations hereunder (and in the case of a Lender, to the
Administrative Agent). The Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, each Lender and each
Participant, as the case may be, agrees to furnish to the Borrower (and in the case of the Issuing
Bank, a Lender or a Participant to the Administrative Agent as well) a certificate setting forth
the basis and amount of each request for compensation under this Section. Determinations by the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, such Lender, or such Participant, as the case may be, of
the effect of any Regulatory Change shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent
manifest error and provided that such determinations are made on a reasonable basis and in good
faith.

Section 4.2. Suspension of LIBOR Loans and LIBOR Margin Loans.

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if, on or prior to the determination of LIBOR
for any Interest Period:

(a) the Administrative Agent reasonably determines (which determination shall be
conclusive) that quotations of interest rates for the relevant deposits referred to in the
definition of LIBOR are not being provided in the relevant amounts or for the relevant
maturities for purposes of determining rates of interest for LIBOR Loans as provided herein
or is otherwise unable to determine LIBOR;

(b) the Administrative Agent reasonably determines (which determination shall be
conclusive) that the relevant rates of interest referred to in the definition of LIBOR upon
the basis of which the rate of interest for LIBOR Loans for such Interest Period is to be
determined are not likely to adequately cover the cost to any Lender of making or
maintaining LIBOR Loans for such Interest Period; or

(c) any Revolving Lender that has outstanding a Bid Rate Quote with respect to a LIBOR
Margin Loan reasonably determines (which determination shall be conclusive) that LIBOR will
not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Revolving Lender of making or maintaining
such LIBOR Margin Loan;

 

- 52 -

 

then the Administrative Agent shall give the Borrower and each Lender prompt notice thereof and, so
long as such condition remains in effect, (i) the Lenders shall be under no obligation to, and
shall not,
make additional LIBOR Loans, Continue LIBOR Loans or Convert Loans into LIBOR Loans and the
Borrower shall, on the last day of each current Interest Period for each outstanding LIBOR Loan,
either prepay such Loan or Convert such Loan into a Base Rate Loan and (ii) in the case of clause
(c) above, no Revolving Lender that has outstanding a Bid Rate Quote with respect to a LIBOR Margin
Loan shall be under any obligation to make such Loan.

Section 4.3. Illegality.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, (a) if any Lender shall determine
(which determination shall be conclusive and binding) that it is unlawful for such Lender to honor
its obligation to make or maintain LIBOR Loans hereunder and/or (b) if any Lender that has an
outstanding Bid Rate Quote shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding)
that it is unlawful for such Lender to honor its obligation to make or maintain LIBOR Margin Loans
hereunder, then such Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower thereof (with a copy of such notice
to the Administrative Agent) and such Lender’s obligation to make or Continue, or to Convert Loans
of any other Type into, LIBOR Loans shall be suspended and/or such Lender’s obligation to make
LIBOR Margin Loans shall be suspended, in each case, until such time as such Lender may again make
and maintain LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Margin Loans (in which case the provisions of Section 4.5. shall
be applicable).

Section 4.4. Compensation.

The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender, upon the
request of such Lender through the Administrative Agent, such amount or amounts as shall be
sufficient (in the reasonable opinion of such Lender) to compensate it for any loss, cost or
expense that such Lender reasonably determines is attributable to:

(a) any payment or prepayment (whether mandatory or optional) of a LIBOR Loan or a Bid
Rate Loan, or Conversion of a LIBOR Loan, made by such Lender for any reason (including,
without limitation, acceleration) on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period
for such Loan; or

(b) any failure by the Borrower for any reason (including, without limitation, the
failure of any of the applicable conditions precedent specified in Article 5.2. to be
satisfied) to borrow a LIBOR Loan or a Bid Rate Loan from such Lender on the date for such
borrowing, or to Convert a Base Rate Loan into a LIBOR Loan or Continue a LIBOR Loan on the
requested date of such Conversion or Continuation.

Not in limitation of the foregoing, such compensation shall include, without limitation, (i) in the
case of a LIBOR Loan, an amount equal to the then present value of (A) the amount of interest that
would have accrued on such LIBOR Loan for the remainder of the Interest Period at the rate
applicable to such LIBOR Loan, less (B) the amount of interest that would accrue on the same LIBOR
Loan for the same period if LIBOR were set on the date on which such LIBOR Loan was repaid, prepaid
or Converted or the date on which the Borrower failed to borrow, Convert or Continue such LIBOR
Loan, as applicable, calculating present value by using as a discount rate LIBOR quoted on such
date and (ii) in the case of a Bid Rate Loan, the sum of such losses and expenses as the Lender or
Designated Lender who made such Bid Rate Loan may reasonably incur by reason of such prepayment,
including without limitation any losses or expenses incurred in obtaining, liquidating or employing
deposits from third parties. Upon the Borrower’s request, the Administrative Agent shall provide
the Borrower with a statement setting forth the basis for requesting such compensation and the
method for determining the amount thereof. Any such statement shall be conclusive absent manifest
error, provided such determinations are made on a reasonable basis and in good faith.

Section 4.5. Treatment of Affected Loans.

(a) If the obligation of any Lender to make LIBOR Loans or to Continue, or to Convert Base
Rate Loans into, LIBOR Loans shall be suspended pursuant to Section 4.1.(c), Section 4.2. or
Section 4.3. then such Lender’s LIBOR Loans shall be automatically Converted into Base Rate Loans
on the last day(s) of the then current Interest Period(s) for LIBOR Loans (or, in the case of a
Conversion required by Section 4.1.(c), Section 4.2., or Section 4.3. on such earlier date as such
Lender may specify to the Borrower with a copy to the Administrative Agent) and, unless and until
such Lender gives notice as provided below that the circumstances specified in Section 4.1.,
Section 4.2. or Section 4.3. that gave rise to such Conversion no longer exist:

(i) to the extent that such Lender’s LIBOR Loans have been so Converted, all payments
and prepayments of principal that would otherwise be applied to such Lender’s LIBOR Loans
shall be applied instead to its Base Rate Loans; and

(ii) all Loans that would otherwise be made or Continued by such Lender as LIBOR Loans
shall be made or Continued instead as Base Rate Loans, and all Base Rate Loans of such
Lender that would otherwise be Converted into LIBOR Loans shall remain as Base Rate Loans.

If such Lender gives notice to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) that the
circumstances specified in Section 4.1.(c) or 4.3. that gave rise to the Conversion of such
Lender’s LIBOR Loans pursuant to this Section no longer exist (which such Lender agrees to do
promptly upon such circumstances ceasing to exist) at a time when LIBOR Loans made by other Lenders
are outstanding, then such Lender’s Base Rate Loans shall be automatically Converted, on the first
day(s) of the next succeeding Interest Period(s) for such outstanding LIBOR Loans, to the extent
necessary so that, after giving effect thereto, all Loans held by the Lenders holding LIBOR Loans
and by such Lender are held pro rata (as to principal amounts, Types and Interest Periods) in
accordance with their respective Commitments.

(b) If the obligation of a Lender to make LIBOR Margin Loans shall be suspended pursuant to
Section 4.1.(c) or 4.2., then the LIBOR Margin Loans of such Lender shall be automatically due and
payable on such date as such Lender may specify to the Borrower by written notice with a copy to
the Administrative Agent.

Section 4.6. Affected Lenders.

If (a) a Lender requests compensation pursuant to Section 3.10. or 4.1., and the Requisite
Lenders are not also doing the same, or (b) the obligation of any Lender to make LIBOR Loans or to
Continue, or to Convert Base Rate Loans into, LIBOR Loans shall be suspended pursuant to Section
4.1.(b) or 4.3. but the obligation of the Requisite Lenders shall not have been suspended under
such Sections, then, so long as there does not then exist any Default or Event of Default, the
Borrower may demand that such Lender (the “Affected Lender”), and upon such demand the Affected
Lender shall promptly, assign its Commitment to an Eligible Assignee subject to and in accordance
with the provisions of Section 12.5.(b) for a purchase price equal to (x) the aggregate principal
balance of all Loans then owing to the Affected Lender, plus (y) the aggregate amount of payments
previously made by the Affected Lender under Section 2.3.(j) that have not been repaid, plus (z)
any accrued but unpaid interest thereon and accrued but unpaid fees owing to the Affected Lender,
or any other amount as may be mutually agreed upon by such Affected Lender and Eligible Assignee.
Each of the Administrative Agent and the Affected Lender shall reasonably cooperate in effectuating
the replacement of such Affected Lender under this Section, but at no time shall the Administrative
Agent, such Affected Lender nor any other Lender nor any Titled Agent be

 

- 54 -

 

 obligated in any way whatsoever to initiate any such replacement or to assist in finding an
Eligible Assignee. The exercise by the Borrower of its rights under this Section shall be at the
Borrower’s sole cost and expense and at no cost or expense to the Administrative Agent, the
Affected Lender or any of the other Lenders. The terms of this Section shall not in any way limit
the Borrower’s obligation to pay to any Affected Lender compensation owing to such Affected Lender
pursuant to this Agreement (including, without limitation, pursuant to Sections 3.10., 4.1. or
4.4.) with respect to any period up to the date of replacement.

Section 4.7. Change of Lending Office.

Each Lender agrees that it will use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy
and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate an alternate Lending Office with respect to any
of its Loans affected by the matters or circumstances described in Sections 3.10., 4.1. or 4.3. to
reduce the liability of the Borrower or avoid the results provided thereunder, so long as such
designation is not disadvantageous to such Lender as determined by such Lender in its sole
discretion, except that such Lender shall have no obligation to designate a Lending Office located
in the United States of America.

Section 4.8. Assumptions Concerning Funding of LIBOR Loans.

Calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under this Article shall be made as though such
Lender had actually funded LIBOR Loans through the purchase of deposits in the relevant market
bearing interest at the rate applicable to such LIBOR Loans in an amount equal to the amount of the
LIBOR Loans and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period; provided, however,
that each Lender may fund each of its LIBOR Loans in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing
assumption shall be used only for calculation of amounts payable under this Article.

Article VI. Representations and Warranties

Section 6.1. Representations and Warranties.

In order to induce the Administrative Agent and each Lender to enter into this Agreement and
to make Loans and, in the case of the Issuing Bank, to issue Letters of Credit, the Borrower
represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and each Lender as follows:

(a) Organization; Power; Qualification. Each of the Borrower, the other Loan Parties
and the other Subsidiaries is a corporation, partnership or other legal entity, duly organized or
formed, validly existing and in good standing under the jurisdiction of its incorporation or
formation, has the power and authority to own or lease its respective properties and to carry on
its respective business as now being and hereafter proposed to be conducted and is duly qualified
and is in good standing as a foreign corporation, partnership or other legal entity, and authorized
to do business, in each jurisdiction in which the character of its properties or the nature of its
business requires such qualification or authorization and where the failure to be so qualified or
authorized could reasonably be expected to have, in each instance, a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) Ownership Structure. Part I of Schedule 6.1.(b) is, as of the Agreement Date, a

terminate.

(ii) Optional. If any other Event of Default shall exist, the Administrative

principal of, and accrued interest on, the Loans and the Notes at the time outstanding, (B)
an amount equal to the Stated Amount of all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the date of
the occurrence of such Event of Default for deposit into the Letter of Credit Collateral
Account and (C) all of the other Obligations, including, but not limited to, the other
amounts owed to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, the Notes or
any of the other Loan Documents to be forthwith due and payable, whereupon the same shall
immediately become due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of
any kind, all of which are expressly waived by the Borrower on behalf of itself and the
other Loan Parties, and (2) terminate the Commitments and the Swingline Commitment and the
obligation of the Issuing Bank to issue Letters of Credit hereunder.

bound for its payment, to take possession of all or any portion of the business operations of the

Obligations. To the extent that any Loan Party makes a payment or payments to the Administrative
Agent, the Issuing Bank, any Lender or any Specified Derivatives Provider, or the Administrative
Agent, the Issuing Bank, any

 

- 79 -

 

Lender or any Specified Derivatives Provider enforce their security
interests or exercise their rights of setoff, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or setoff or any part
thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or
required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, state or
federal law, common law or equitable cause, then to the extent of such recovery, the Obligations or
Specified Derivatives Obligations, or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all
Liens, rights and remedies therefor, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if
such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

Section 10.5. Allocation of Proceeds.

If an Event of Default exists and maturity of any of the Obligations has been accelerated, all
payments received by the Administrative Agent under any of the Loan Documents, in respect of any
principal of or interest on the Obligations or any other amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder
or thereunder, shall be applied in the following order and priority:

(a) amounts due to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders in
respect of expenses due under Section 12.2. until paid in full, and then Fees;

(b) payments of interest on Swingline Loans;

(c) payments of interest on all other Loans and Reimbursement Obligations to be applied
for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank;

(d) payments of principal of Swingline Loans;

(e) payments of principal of all other Loans, Reimbursement Obligations and other
Letter of Credit Liabilities, to be applied for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the
Issuing Bank, as the case may be, in such order and priority as the Lenders and the Issuing
Bank, as the case may be, may determine in their sole discretion; provided, however, to the
extent that any amounts available for distribution pursuant to this subsection are
attributable to the issued but undrawn amount of an outstanding Letter of Credit, such
amounts shall be paid to the Administrative Agent for deposit into the Letter of Credit
Collateral Account;

(g) amounts due to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders pursuant to Sections 11.6.
and 12.9.;

(h) payments of all other Obligations and other amounts due under any of the Loan
Documents, if any, to be applied for the ratable benefit of the Lenders; and

(i) any amount remaining after application as provided above, shall be paid to the
Borrower or whomever else may be legally entitled thereto.

Section 10.6. Letter of Credit Collateral Account.

(a) As collateral security for the prompt payment in full when due of all Letter of Credit
Liabilities and the other Obligations, the Borrower hereby pledges and grants to the Administrative
Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders as
provided herein, a security interest in all of its right, title and interest in and to the Letter
of Credit Collateral Account and the balances from time to time in the Letter of Credit Collateral
Account (including the investments and reinvestments therein provided for below). The balances
from time to time in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account shall not constitute payment of any
Letter of Credit Liabilities until applied
by the Issuing Bank as provided herein. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary
notwithstanding, funds held in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account shall be subject to
withdrawal only as provided in this Section.

 

- 80 -

 

(b) Amounts on deposit in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account shall be invested and
reinvested by the Administrative Agent in such Cash Equivalents as the Administrative Agent shall
determine in its sole discretion. All such investments and reinvestments shall be held in the name
of and be under the sole dominion and control of the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit
of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders; provided, that all earnings
on such investments will be credited to and retained in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account.
The Administrative Agent shall exercise reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any
funds held in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account and shall be deemed to have exercised such
care if such funds are accorded treatment substantially equivalent to that which the Administrative
Agent accords other funds deposited with the Administrative Agent, it being understood that the
Administrative Agent shall not have any responsibility for taking any necessary steps to preserve
rights against any parties with respect to any funds held in the Letter of Credit Collateral
Account.

(c) If a drawing pursuant to any Letter of Credit occurs on or prior to the expiration date of
such Letter of Credit, the Borrower and the Lenders authorize the Administrative Agent to use the
monies deposited in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account to reimburse the Issuing Bank for the
payment made by the Issuing Bank to the beneficiary with respect to such drawing or the payee with
respect to such presentment.

(d) If an Event of Default exists, the Administrative Agent may (and, if instructed by the
Requisite Lenders, shall) in its (or their) discretion at any time and from time to time elect to
liquidate any such investments and reinvestments and apply the proceeds thereof to the Obligations
in accordance with Section 10.5.

(e) So long as no Default or Event of Default exists, and to the extent amounts on deposit in
or credited to the Letter of Credit Collateral Account exceed the aggregate amount of the Letter of
Credit Liabilities then due and owing, the Administrative Agent shall, from time to time, at the
request of the Borrower, deliver to the Borrower within 10 Business Days after the Administrative
Agent’s receipt of such request from the Borrower, against receipt but without any recourse,
warranty or representation whatsoever, such of amount of the credit balances in the Letter of
Credit Collateral Account as exceeds the aggregate amount of Letter of Credit Liabilities at such
time. When all of the Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full and no Letters of
Credit remain outstanding, the Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrower, against receipt
but without any recourse, warranty or representation whatsoever, the balances remaining in the
Letter of Credit Collateral Account.

(f) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent from time to time such fees as the
Administrative Agent normally charges for similar services in connection with the Administrative
Agent’s administration of the Letter of Credit Collateral Account and investments and reinvestments
of funds therein.

Section 10.7. Rescission of Acceleration by Requisite Lenders.

If at any time after acceleration of the maturity of the Loans and the other Obligations, the
Borrower shall pay all arrears of interest and all payments on account of principal of the
Obligations which shall have become due otherwise than by acceleration (with interest on principal
and, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, on overdue interest, at the rates specified in this
Agreement) and all Events of Default and Defaults (other than nonpayment of principal of and
accrued interest on the Obligations

due and payable solely by virtue of acceleration) shall become remedied or waived to the
satisfaction of the Requisite Lenders, then by written notice to the Borrower, the Requisite
Lenders may elect, in the sole discretion of such Requisite Lenders, to rescind and annul the
acceleration and its consequences. The provisions of the preceding sentence are intended merely to
bind all of the Lenders to a decision which may be made at the election of the Requisite Lenders,
and are not intended to benefit the Borrower and do not give the Borrower the right to require the
Lenders to rescind or annul any acceleration hereunder, even if the conditions set forth herein are
satisfied.

 

- 81 -

 

Section 10.8. Performance by Administrative Agent.

If the Borrower or any other Loan Party shall fail to perform any covenant, duty or agreement
contained in any of the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent may, after notice to the Borrower,
perform or attempt to perform such covenant, duty or agreement on behalf of the Borrower or such
other Loan Party after the expiration of any cure or grace periods set forth herein. In such
event, the Borrower shall, at the request of the Administrative Agent, promptly pay any amount
reasonably expended by the Administrative Agent in such performance or attempted performance to the
Administrative Agent, together with interest thereon at the applicable Post-Default Rate from the
date of such expenditure until paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Administrative
Agent nor any Lender shall have any liability or responsibility whatsoever for the performance of
any obligation of the Borrower under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

Section 10.9. Rights Cumulative.

The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, the Lenders and the
Specified Derivatives Providers under this Agreement, each of the other Loan Documents, the Fee
Letter and Specified Derivatives Contracts shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or
remedies which any of them may otherwise have under Applicable Law. In exercising their respective
rights and remedies the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, the Lenders and the Specified
Derivatives Providers may be selective and no failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, the
Issuing Bank, any of the Lenders or any of the Specified Derivatives Providers in exercising any
right shall operate as a waiver of it, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any power or
right preclude its other or further exercise or the exercise of any other power or right.

Article XI. The Administrative Agent

Section 11.1. Appointment and Authorization.

Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such
action as contractual representative on such Lender’s behalf and to exercise such powers under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are specifically delegated to the Administrative Agent by
the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Not
in limitation of the foregoing, each Lender authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to
enter into the Loan Documents for the benefit of the Lenders. Each Lender hereby agrees that,
except as otherwise set forth herein, any action taken by the Requisite Lenders in accordance with
the provisions of this Agreement or the Loan Documents, and the exercise by the Requisite Lenders
of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably
incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders. Nothing herein shall
be construed to deem the Administrative Agent a trustee or fiduciary for any Lender or to impose on
the Administrative Agent duties or obligations other than those expressly provided for herein.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the terms “Agent”, “Administrative
Agent”, “agent” and similar terms in the Loan Documents with reference to the Administrative Agent
is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or

 

- 82 -

 

 express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any Applicable Law. Instead, use of such terms is
merely a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative
relationship between independent contracting parties. The Administrative Agent shall deliver to
each Lender, promptly upon receipt thereof by the Administrative Agent, copies of each of the
financial statements, certificates, notices and other documents delivered to the Administrative
Agent pursuant to Article VIII. that the Borrower is not otherwise required to deliver directly to
the Lenders. The Administrative Agent will furnish to any Lender, upon the request of such Lender,
a copy (or, where appropriate, an original) of any document, instrument, agreement, certificate or
notice furnished to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other
Affiliate of the Borrower, pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document not already
delivered to such Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any such other Loan Document.
As to any matters not expressly provided for by the Loan Documents (including, without limitation,
enforcement or collection of any of the Obligations), the Administrative Agent shall not be
required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain
from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the
instructions of the Requisite Lenders (or all of the Lenders if explicitly required under any other
provision of this Agreement), and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders and all
holders of any of the Obligations; provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything in this
Agreement to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action which
exposes the Administrative Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or
any other Loan Document or Applicable Law. Not in limitation of the foregoing, the Administrative
Agent may exercise any right or remedy it or the Lenders may have under any Loan Document upon the
occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default unless the Requisite Lenders have directed the
Administrative Agent otherwise. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of
action whatsoever against the Administrative Agent as a result of the Administrative Agent acting
or refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in accordance
with the instructions of the Requisite Lenders, or where applicable, all the Lenders.

Section 11.2. Wells Fargo as Lender.

Wells Fargo, as a Lender or as a Specified Derivatives Provider, as the case may be, shall
have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and any other Loan Document and under any
Specified Derivatives Contract, as the case may be, as any other Lender or Specified Derivatives
Provider and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent; and the term
“Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include Wells Fargo in each case
in its individual capacity. Wells Fargo and its Affiliates may each accept deposits from, maintain
deposits or credit balances for, invest in, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of,
serve as financial advisor to, and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower, any
other Loan Party or any other Affiliate thereof as if it were any other bank and without any duty
to account therefor to the Issuing Bank, other Lenders, or any other Specified Derivatives
Providers. Further, the Administrative Agent and any Affiliate may accept fees and other
consideration from the Borrower for services in connection with this Agreement or any Specified
Derivatives Contract, or otherwise without having to account for the same to the Issuing Bank, the
other Lenders or any other Specified Derivatives Providers. The Issuing Bank and the Lenders
acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, Wells Fargo or its Affiliates may receive
information regarding the Borrower, other Loan Parties, other Subsidiaries and other Affiliates
(including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Person)
and acknowledge that the Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such
information to them.

 

- 83 -

 

Section 11.3. Approvals of Lenders.

All communications from the Administrative Agent to any Lender requesting such Lender’s
determination, consent, approval or disapproval (a) shall be given in the form of a written notice
to such Lender, (b) shall be accompanied by a description of the matter or issue as to which such
determination, approval, consent or disapproval is requested, or shall advise such Lender where
information, if any, regarding such matter or issue may be inspected, or shall otherwise describe
the matter or issue to be resolved, (c) shall include, if reasonably requested by such Lender and
to the extent not previously provided to such Lender, written materials and, as appropriate, a
brief summary of all oral information provided to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower in
respect of the matter or issue to be resolved, and (d) shall include the Administrative Agent’s
recommended course of action or determination in respect thereof. Unless a Lender shall give
written notice to the Administrative Agent that it specifically objects to the recommendation or
determination of the Administrative Agent (together with a reasonable written explanation of the
reasons behind such objection) within ten (10) Business Days (or such lesser or greater period as
may be specifically required under the express terms of the Loan Documents) of receipt of such
communication, such Lender shall be deemed to have conclusively approved of or consented to such
recommendation or determination; provided, however, that this sentence shall not apply to
amendments, waivers or consents that require the written consent of each Lender directly and
adversely affected thereby pursuant to Section 12.6.(b).

Section 11.4. Notice of Events of Default.

The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of
a Default or Event of Default unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or
the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing with reasonable specificity such Default or
Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” If any Lender (excluding
the Lender which is also serving as the Administrative Agent) becomes aware of any Default or Event
of Default, it shall promptly send to the Administrative Agent such a “notice of default”.
Further, if the Administrative Agent receives such a “notice of default,” the Administrative Agent
shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders.

Section 11.5. Administrative Agent’s Reliance.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, neither
the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents, employees or counsel shall be
liable for any action taken or not taken by it under or in connection with this Agreement or any
other Loan Document, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct in
connection with its duties expressly set forth herein or therein as determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (including its own counsel or
counsel for the Borrower or any other Loan Party), independent public accountants and other experts
selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by
it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts. Neither the
Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents, employees or counsel: (a) makes
any warranty or representation to any Lender, the Issuing Bank or any other Person, or shall be
responsible to any Lender, the Issuing Bank or any other Person for any statement, warranty or
representation made or deemed made by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person in or
in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (b) shall have any duty to ascertain
or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of
this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the satisfaction of any conditions precedent under
this Agreement or any Loan Document on the part of the Borrower or other Persons, or to inspect the
property, books or records of the Borrower or any other Person; (c) shall be responsible to any
Lender or the Issuing Bank for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness,
sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any other instrument or document
furnished pursuant thereto or any collateral covered thereby or the perfection or priority of any
Lien in favor of the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the
Specified Derivatives Providers

 

- 84 -

 

in any such collateral; (d) shall have any liability in respect of any recitals, statements,
certifications, representations or warranties contained in any of the Loan Documents or any other
document, instrument, agreement, certificate or statement delivered in connection therewith; and
(e) shall incur any liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by
acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by
telephone, telecopy or electronic mail) believed by it to be genuine and signed, sent or given by
the proper party or parties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under the Loan
Documents by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall not be responsible for the
negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects in the absence of gross
negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final
non-appealable judgment.

Section 11.6. Indemnification of Administrative Agent.

Each Lender agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the
Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so) pro rata in accordance with
such Lender’s respective Commitment Percentage, from and against any and all liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, reasonable out-of-pocket costs
and expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by, or
asserted against the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent but not as a
Lender) in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents, any transaction contemplated
hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under the Loan
Documents (collectively, “Indemnifiable Amounts”); provided, however, that no Lender shall be
liable for any portion of such Indemnifiable Amounts to the extent resulting from the
Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment; provided, however, that no action
taken in accordance with the directions of the Requisite Lenders (or all of the Lenders, if
expressly required hereunder) shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct
for purposes of this Section. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Lender agrees
to reimburse the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without
limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so) promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any
out-of-pocket expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of the counsel to the
Administrative Agent) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation,
negotiation, execution, administration, or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal
proceedings, or otherwise) of, or legal advice with respect to the rights or responsibilities of
the parties under, the Loan Documents, any suit or action brought by the Administrative Agent to
enforce the terms of the Loan Documents and/or collect any Obligations, any “lender liability” suit
or claim brought against the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders, and any claim or suit brought
against the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders arising under any Environmental Laws. Such
out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) shall be advanced by the Lenders on the request of
the Administrative Agent notwithstanding any claim or assertion that the Administrative Agent is
not entitled to indemnification hereunder upon receipt of an undertaking by the Administrative
Agent that the Administrative Agent will reimburse the Lenders if it is actually and finally
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that the Administrative Agent is not so entitled to
indemnification. The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of the Loans and all
other amounts payable hereunder or under the other Loan Documents and the termination of this
Agreement. If the Borrower shall reimburse the Administrative Agent for any Indemnifiable Amount
following payment by any Lender to the Administrative Agent in respect of such Indemnifiable Amount
pursuant to this Section, the Administrative Agent shall share such reimbursement on a ratable
basis with each Lender making any such payment.

Section 11.7. Lender Credit Decision, Etc.

Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank expressly acknowledges and agrees that neither the
Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, counsel,
attorneys-in-fact or other Affiliates has made any representations or warranties to the Issuing
Bank or such Lender and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any
review of the affairs of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Subsidiary or Affiliate,
shall be deemed to constitute any such representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to
the Issuing Bank or any Lender. Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank acknowledges that it has
made its own credit and legal analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the
transactions contemplated hereby, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent,
any other Lender or counsel to the Administrative Agent, or any of their respective officers,
directors, employees, agents or counsel, and based on the financial statements of the Borrower, the
other Loan Parties, the other Subsidiaries and other Affiliates, and inquiries of such Persons, its
independent due diligence of the business and affairs of the Borrower, the other Loan Parties, the
other Subsidiaries and other Persons, its review of the Loan Documents, the legal opinions required
to be delivered to it hereunder, the advice of its own counsel and such other documents and
information as it has deemed appropriate. Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank also
acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any
other Lender or counsel to the Administrative Agent or any of their respective officers, directors,
employees and agents, and based on such review, advice, documents and information as it shall deem
appropriate at the time, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under
the Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent shall not be required to keep itself informed as to
the performance or observance by the Borrower or any other Loan Party of the Loan Documents or any
other document referred to or provided for therein or to inspect the properties or books of, or
make any other investigation of, the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Subsidiary.
Except for notices, reports and other documents and information expressly required to be furnished
to the Lenders and the Issuing Bank by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any of the
other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or responsibility to provide any
Lender or the Issuing Bank with any credit or other information concerning the business,
operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Borrower, any other
Loan Party or any other Affiliate thereof which may come into possession of the Administrative
Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or other Affiliates.
Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank acknowledges that the Administrative Agent’s legal counsel
in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is only acting as counsel to the
Administrative Agent and is not acting as counsel to any Lender or the Issuing Bank.

Section 11.8. Successor Administrative Agent.

The Administrative Agent may resign at any time as Administrative Agent under the Loan
Documents by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower. The Administrative
Agent may be removed as administrative agent by the Requisite Lenders (other than the Lender then
acting as Administrative Agent) and the Borrower upon 30 days’ prior written notice if the
Administrative Agent is found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final judgment to have
committed gross negligence or willful misconduct in the course of performing its duties hereunder.
Upon any such resignation or removal, the Requisite Lenders (other than the Lender then acting as
Administrative Agent, in the case of the removal of the Administrative Agent under the immediately
preceding sentence) shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent which
appointment shall, provided no Default or Event of Default exists, be subject to the Borrower’s
approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (except that the

 

- 86 -

 

 Borrower
shall, in all events, be deemed to have approved each Lender and any of its Affiliates as a successor Administrative Agent). If no successor Administrative
Agent shall have been so appointed in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, and shall
have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the current Administrative Agent’s giving of
notice of resignation or the Lenders’ removal of the current Administrative Agent, then the current
Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, appoint a successor
Administrative Agent, which shall be a Lender, if any Lender shall be willing to serve, and
otherwise shall be an Eligible Assignee. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative
Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall
thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the
current Administrative Agent, and the current Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its
duties and obligations under the Loan Documents. Such successor Administrative Agent shall issue
letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of
such succession or shall make other arrangements satisfactory to the current Administrative Agent,
in either case, to assume effectively the obligations of the current Administrative Agent with
respect to such Letters of Credit. After any Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal
hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article XI. shall continue to inure to
its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent
under the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the
Administrative Agent may assign its rights and duties under the Loan Documents to any of its
Affiliates by giving the Borrower and each Lender prior written notice.

Section 11.9. Titled Agents.

Each of the Syndication Agent and the Documentation Agents (each a “Titled Agent”) in each
such respective capacity, assumes no responsibility or obligation hereunder, including, without
limitation, for servicing, enforcement or collection of any of the Loans, nor any duties as an
agent hereunder for the Lenders. The titles given to the Titled Agents are solely honorific and
imply no fiduciary responsibility on the part of the Titled Agents to the Administrative Agent, any
Lender, the Issuing Bank, the Borrower or any other Loan Party and the use of such titles does not
impose on the Titled Agents any duties or obligations greater than those of any other Lender or
entitle the Titled Agents to any rights other than those to which any other Lender is entitled.

acting upon any telephonic notice referred to in this Agreement which the Administrative Agent, the
Issuing Bank or such Lender, as the case may be, believes in good faith to have been given by a

of a Person designated to get a copy of a notice to receive such copy shall not affect the validity
of notice properly given to another Person.

Section 12.2. Expenses.

The Borrower agrees (a) to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent for all of its reasonable
out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, negotiation and
execution of, and any amendment, supplement or modification to, any of the Loan Documents

consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including the reasonable fees and
disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent and all costs and expenses of the
Administrative Agent in connection with the use of IntraLinks, SyndTrak or other similar
information transmission systems in connection with the Loan Documents, (b) to pay or reimburse the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders for all their reasonable costs and expenses
incurred in connection with the enforcement or preservation of any rights under the Loan Documents
and the Fee Letter, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of their respective counsel
(including the allocated fees and expenses of in-house counsel) and any payments in indemnification
or otherwise payable by the Lenders to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Loan Documents, (c)
to pay, and indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders

taxes, if any, which may be payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution
and delivery of any of the Loan Documents, or consummation of any amendment, supplement or
modification of, or any waiver or consent under or in respect of, any Loan Document and (d) to the
extent not already covered by any of the preceding subsections, to pay or reimburse the reasonable
fees and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and any Lender
incurred in connection with the representation of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or
such Lender in any matter relating to or arising out of any bankruptcy or other proceeding of the
type described in Sections 10.1.(e) or 10.1.(f), including, without limitation (i) any motion for
relief from any stay or similar order, (ii) the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of

the Lenders may pay such amounts on behalf of the Borrower and such amounts shall be deemed to be
Obligations owing hereunder.

Section 12.3. Setoff.

Subject to Section 3.3. and in addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under
Applicable Law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, the Borrower hereby authorizes the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, each Lender, each Affiliate of the Administrative Agent,
the Issuing Bank or any Lender, and each Participant, at any time or from time to time while an
Event of Default exists, without notice to the Borrower or to any other Person, any such notice
being hereby expressly waived, but in the case of the Issuing Bank, a Lender, an Affiliate of the
Issuing Bank or a Lender, or a Participant, subject to receipt of the prior written consent of the
Requisite Lenders exercised in their sole discretion, to set off and to appropriate and to apply
any and all deposits (general or special, including, but not limited to, indebtedness evidenced by
certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured) and any other indebtedness at any time held
or owing by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, such Lender, any Affiliate of the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Lender, or such Participant, to or for the credit or
the account of the Borrower against and on account of any of the Obligations, irrespective of
whether or not any or all of the Loans and all other Obligations have been declared to be, or have
otherwise become, due and payable as permitted by Section 10.2., and although such Obligations
shall be contingent or unmatured.

Section 12.4. Litigation; Jurisdiction; Other Matters; Waivers.

(a) EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ANY DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY BETWEEN OR AMONG THE
BORROWER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE ISSUING BANK OR ANY OF THE LENDERS WOULD BE BASED
ON DIFFICULT AND COMPLEX ISSUES OF LAW AND FACT AND WOULD RESULT IN DELAY AND EXPENSE TO THE
PARTIES. ACCORDINGLY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH OF THE LENDERS, THE
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE ISSUING BANK AND THE BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO A TRIAL
BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND OR NATURE IN ANY COURT OR TRIBUNAL IN WHICH AN
ACTION MAY BE COMMENCED BY OR AGAINST ANY PARTY HERETO ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER
LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE FEE LETTER OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR BY REASON OF ANY OTHER SUIT,
CAUSE OF ACTION OR DISPUTE WHATSOEVER BETWEEN OR AMONG THE BORROWER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE
AGENT, THE ISSUING BANK OR ANY OF THE LENDERS OF ANY KIND OR NATURE RELATING TO ANY OF THE LOAN
DOCUMENTS.

(b) THE BORROWER AND EACH OTHER LOAN PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT IT WILL
NOT COMMENCE ANY ACTION, LITIGATION OR PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND OR DESCRIPTION, WHETHER IN LAW OR
EQUITY, WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR IN TORT OR OTHERWISE, AGAINST THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY LENDER,
THE ISSUING BANK, OR ANY RELATED PARTY OF THE FOREGOING IN ANY WAY RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR
ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATING HERETO OR THERETO, IN ANY FORUM OTHER THAN THE
COURTS 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, AND EACH OF THE
PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS AND
AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION, LITIGATION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND
DETERMINED IN SUCH NEW YORK STATE COURT OR, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN
SUCH FEDERAL COURT. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION,
LITIGATION OR

 

- 90 -

 

PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW.
NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT OR IN ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT THE
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY LENDER OR THE ISSUING BANK MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR
PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AGAINST THE BORROWER OR ANY OTHER
LOAN PARTY OR ITS PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION. EACH PARTY FURTHER WAIVES ANY
OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY
SUCH COURT OR THAT SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING WAS BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM AND EACH AGREES
NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM THE SAME. THE CHOICE OF FORUM SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION SHALL NOT BE DEEMED
TO PRECLUDE THE BRINGING OF ANY ACTION BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE ISSUING BANK OR
ANY LENDER OR THE ENFORCEMENT BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE ISSUING BANK OR ANY LENDER
OF ANY JUDGMENT OBTAINED IN SUCH FORUM IN ANY OTHER APPROPRIATE JURISDICTION.

(c) THE BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF THE SUMMONS AND COMPLAINT, OR OTHER PROCESS
OR PAPERS ISSUED THEREIN, AND AGREES THAT SERVICE OF SUCH SUMMONS AND COMPLAINT, OR OTHER PROCESS
OR PAPERS MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL ADDRESSED TO THE BORROWER AT ITS ADDRESS FOR
NOTICES PROVIDED FOR HEREIN. SHOULD THE BORROWER FAIL TO APPEAR OR ANSWER ANY SUMMONS, COMPLAINT,
PROCESS OR PAPERS SO SERVED WITHIN THIRTY (30) DAYS AFTER THE MAILING THEREOF, THE BORROWER SHALL
BE DEEMED IN DEFAULT AND AN ORDER AND/OR JUDGMENT MAY BE ENTERED AGAINST IT AS DEMANDED OR PRAYED
FOR IN SUCH SUMMONS, COMPLAINT, PROCESS OR PAPERS.

(d) THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION HAVE BEEN CONSIDERED BY EACH PARTY WITH THE ADVICE OF
COUNSEL AND WITH A FULL UNDERSTANDING OF THE LEGAL CONSEQUENCES THEREOF, AND SHALL SURVIVE THE
PAYMENT OF THE LOANS AND ALL OTHER AMOUNTS PAYABLE HEREUNDER OR UNDER THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, THE
TERMINATION OR EXPIRATION OF ALL LETTERS OF CREDIT AND THE TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT.

Section 12.5. Successors and Assigns.

(a) Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and
assigns permitted hereby, except that neither the Borrower nor any other Loan Party may assign or
otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of
the Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its
rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee in accordance with the
provisions of the immediately following subsection (b), (ii) by way of participation in accordance
with the provisions of the immediately following subsection (d) or (iii) by way of pledge or
assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of the immediately following
subsection (f) (and, subject to the last sentence of the immediately following subsection (b), any
other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in
this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the
parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the
extent provided in the immediately following subsection (d) and, to the extent expressly
contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or
equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

 

- 91 -

 

(b) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible
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); provided that any such
assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i) Minimum Amounts.

(A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of an
assigning Revolving Lender’s Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it or in
the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund,
no minimum amount need be assigned; and

(B) in any case not described in the immediately preceding subsection (A), the
aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans
outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the
principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each
such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with
respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade
Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date) shall not
be less than $5,000,000 in the case of any assignment of a Commitment, unless each
of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall
exist, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed); provided, however, that if, after giving effect to such
assignment, the amount of the Commitment held by such assigning Lender or the
outstanding principal balance of the Loans of such assigning Lender, as applicable,
would be less than $5,000,000 in the case of a Commitment or Revolving Loans, then
such assigning Lender shall assign the entire amount of its Commitment and the Loans
at the time owing to it.

(ii) Proportionate Amounts. 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 with respect to the Loan or the Commitment assigned, except that this
clause (ii) shall not apply to rights in respect of a Bid Rate Loan.

(iii) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment
except to the extent required by clause (i)(B) of this subsection (b) and, in addition:

(A) the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld
or delayed; provided, that the Borrower’s refusal to consent to an assignment to a
Person that does not have a tangible net worth of $500,000,000 or more shall not, in
and of itself, be unreasonable) shall be required unless (x) a Default or Event of
Default shall exist at the time of such assignment or (y) such assignment is to a
Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; provided that the Borrower
shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object
thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within 5 Business Days after
having received notice thereof;

(B) the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be
unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments in respect of a
Commitment if such assignment is to a Person that is not already a Lender with a
Commitment, an Affiliate of such a Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such a
Lender; and

 

- 92 -

 

(C) the consent of the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Bank (such consent not
to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment in
respect of a Commitment if such assignment is to a Person that is not already a
Lender with a Commitment, an Affiliate of such a Lender or an Approved Fund with
respect to such a Lender.

(iv) Assignment and Assumption; Notes. 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 $4,500 ($7,500 for assignments involving a Defaulting
Lender) for each assignment, and the assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the
Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire. If requested by the transferor Lender
or the Assignee, upon the consummation of any assignment, the transferor Lender, the
Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall make appropriate arrangements so that new Notes
are issued to the Assignee and such transferor Lender, as appropriate.

(v) No Assignment to Borrower. No such assignment shall be made to the
Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries.

(vi) No Assignment to Natural Persons. No such assignment shall be made to a
natural person.

(vii) Assignments by Specified Derivatives Provider. If the assigning Lender
(or its Affiliate) is a Specified Derivatives Provider and if after giving effect to such
assignment such Lender will hold no further Loans or Commitments under this Agreement, such
Lender shall undertake such assignment only contemporaneously with an assignment by such
Lender (or its Affiliate, as the case may be) of all of its Specified Derivatives Contracts
to the Assignee or another Lender (or Affiliate thereof).

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the immediately
following subsection (c), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and
Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement 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 4.4., 12.2. and 12.9. and the other provisions of this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents as provided in Section 12.10. with respect to facts and
circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Any assignment or transfer
by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph
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 the immediately following subsection (d).

(c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of
the Borrower, shall maintain at the Principal Office 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 Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms
hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and
the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded
in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this
Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the
contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any
reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

 

- 93 -

 

(d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to,
the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural
person or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”)
in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all
or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s
obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely
responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the
Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with
such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement or any
required consent or approval of such Lender under this Agreement (provided that this clause (iii)
shall not affect a Lender’s rights or obligations with respect to any participation agreement
described in the immediately following sentence). Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a
Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to
enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of
this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not,
without the consent of the Participant, agree to (w) increase such Lender’s Commitment, (x) extend
the date fixed for the payment of principal on the Loans or portions thereof owing to such Lender,
(y) reduce the rate at which interest is payable thereon or (z) release any Guarantor from its
Obligations under the Guaranty. Subject to the immediately following subsection (e), the Borrower
agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.10., 4.1., 4.4. to the
same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to
paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Participant also
shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 12.3. as though it were a Lender, provided such
Participant agrees to be subject to Section 3.3. as though it were a Lender.

(e) Limitations upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to
receive any greater payment under Sections 3.10. and 4.1. 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 3.10. unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such
Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent, to comply with Section 3.10.(c) as though it were a Lender.

(f) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest
in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender,
including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that
no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or
substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(g) No Registration. Each Lender agrees that, without the prior written consent of
the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, it will not make any assignment hereunder in any manner
or under any circumstances that would require registration or qualification of, or filings in
respect of, any Loan or Note under the Securities Act or any other securities laws of the United
States of America or of any other jurisdiction.

 

- 94 -

 

(h) Designated Lenders. Any Lender (each, a “Designating Lender”) may at any time
while the Borrower has been assigned an Investment Grade Rating designate one Designated Lender to
fund Bid Rate Loans on behalf of such Designating Lender subject to the terms of this subsection,
and the provisions in the immediately preceding subsections (b) and (d) shall not apply to such
designation. No Lender may designate more than one Designated Lender. The parties to each such designation shall
execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent for its acceptance a Designation Agreement. Upon
such receipt of an appropriately completed Designation Agreement executed by a Designating Lender
and a designee representing that it is a Designated Lender, the Administrative Agent will accept
such Designation Agreement and give prompt notice thereof to the Borrower, whereupon (i) the
Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Designating Lender a Bid Rate Note payable to the order
of the Designated Lender, (ii) from and after the effective date specified in the Designation
Agreement, the Designated Lender shall become a party to this Agreement with a right to make Bid
Rate Loans on behalf of its Designating Lender pursuant to Section 2.2. after the Borrower has
accepted a Bid Rate Loan (or portion thereof) of the Designating Lender, and (iii) the Designated
Lender shall not be required to make payments with respect to any obligations in this Agreement
except to the extent of excess cash flow of such Designated Lender which is not otherwise required
to repay obligations of such Designated Lender which are then due and payable; provided, however,
that regardless of such designation and assumption by the Designated Lender, the Designating Lender
shall be and remain obligated to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for each
and every of the obligations of the Designating Lender and its related Designated Lender with
respect to this Agreement, including, without limitation, any indemnification obligations under
Section 11.6. and any sums otherwise payable to the Borrower by the Designated Lender. Each
Designating Lender shall serve as the agent of the Designated Lender and shall on behalf of, and to
the exclusion of, the Designated Lender: (i) receive any and all payments made for the benefit of
the Designated Lender and (ii) give and receive all communications and notices and take all actions
hereunder, including, without limitation, votes, approvals, waivers, consents and amendments under
or relating to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Any such notice, communication, vote,
approval, waiver, consent or amendment shall be signed by the Designating Lender as agent for the
Designated Lender and shall not be signed by the Designated Lender on its own behalf and shall be
binding on the Designated Lender to the same extent as if signed by the Designated Lender on its
own behalf. The Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may rely thereon without any
requirement that the Designated Lender sign or acknowledge the same. No Designated Lender may
assign or transfer all or any portion of its interest hereunder or under any other Loan Document,
other than assignments to the Designating Lender which originally designated such Designated
Lender. The Borrower, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent each hereby agrees that it will not
institute against any Designated Lender or join any other Person in instituting against any
Designated Lender any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding
under any federal or state bankruptcy or similar law, until the later to occur of (x) one year and
one day after the payment in full of the latest maturing commercial paper note issued by such
Designated Lender and (y) the Termination Date. In connection with any such designation, the
Designating Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent an administrative fee for processing such
designation in the amount of $2,000.

Section 12.6. Amendments and Waivers.

(a) Generally. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, (i) any
consent or approval required or permitted by this Agreement or any other Loan Document to be given
by the Lenders may be given, (ii) any term of this Agreement or of any other Loan Document may be
amended, (iii) the performance or observance by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other
Subsidiary of any terms of this Agreement or such other Loan Document may be waived, and (iv) the
continuance of any Default or Event of Default may be waived (either generally or in a particular
instance and either retroactively or prospectively) with, but only with, the written consent of the
Requisite Lenders (or the Administrative Agent at the written direction of the Requisite Lenders),
and, in the case of an amendment to any Loan Document, the written consent of each Loan Party which
is party thereto.

 

- 95 -

 

(b) Consent
of Lenders Directly Affected. In addition to the foregoing requirements, no amendment,
waiver or consent shall, unless in writing,
and signed by each of the Lenders directly and
adversely affected thereby (or the Administrative Agent at the written direction of such
Lenders), do any of the following:

(i) increase the Commitments of the Lenders (excluding any increase as a result of an
assignment of Commitments permitted under Section 12.5. and any increases contemplated under
Section 2.16.) or subject the Lenders to any additional obligations;

(ii) reduce the principal of, or interest that has accrued or the rates of interest
that will be charged on the outstanding principal amount of, any Loans or other Obligations;

(iii) reduce the amount of any Fees payable to the Lenders hereunder;

(iv) modify the definition of “Termination Date” (except in accordance with Section
2.13.), otherwise postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on,
any Loans or for the payment of Fees or any other Obligations, or extend the expiration date
of any Letter of Credit beyond the Termination Date;

(v) modify the definition of “Commitment Percentage” or amend or otherwise modify the
provisions of Section 3.2.;

(vi) amend this Section or amend the definitions of the terms used in this Agreement or
the other Loan Documents insofar as such definitions affect the substance of this Section;

(vii) modify the definition of the term “Requisite Lenders” or modify in any other
manner the number or percentage of the Lenders required to make any determinations or waive
any rights hereunder or to modify any provision hereof;

(viii) release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty except as
contemplated by Section 7.13.(b) or waive or release any indemnification obligation of a
Loan Party in writing;

(ix) waive a Default or Event of Default under Section 10.1.(a), except as provided in
Section 10.7.; or

(x) amend, or waive the Borrower’s compliance with, Section 2.15.

(d) Amendment of Administrative Agent’s Duties, Etc. No amendment, waiver or consent
unless in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent, in addition to the Lenders required
hereinabove to take such action, shall affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent
under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. Any amendment, waiver or consent relating
to Section 2.4. or the obligations of the Swingline Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan
Document shall, in addition to the Lenders required hereinabove to take such action, require the
written consent of the Swingline Lender. Any amendment, waiver or consent relating to Section 2.3.
or the obligations of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall, in
addition to the Lenders required hereinabove to take such action, require the written consent of
the Issuing Bank. Any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to any Loan Document that (i)
diminishes the rights of a Specified Derivatives Provider in a manner or to an extent dissimilar to
that affecting the Lenders or (ii) increases the liabilities or obligations of a Specified
Derivatives Provider shall, in addition to the Lenders required hereinabove to take such action,
require the consent of the Lender that is (or having an Affiliate that is) such Specified
Derivatives Provider. No waiver shall extend to or affect any obligation not expressly waived or
impair any right consequent thereon and any amendment, waiver or consent shall be effective only in
the specific instance
and for the specific purpose set forth therein. No course of dealing or delay or omission on
the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right shall operate as a
waiver thereof or otherwise be prejudicial thereto. Any Event of Default occurring hereunder shall
continue to exist until such time as such Event of Default is waived in writing in accordance with
the terms of this Section, notwithstanding any attempted cure or other action by the Borrower, any
other Loan Party or any other Person subsequent to the occurrence of such Event of Default. Except
as otherwise explicitly provided for herein or in any other Loan Document, no notice to or demand
upon the Borrower shall entitle the Borrower to other or further notice or demand in similar or
other circumstances.

Section 12.7. Nonliability of Administrative Agent and Lenders.

The relationship between the Borrower, on the one hand, and the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and
the Administrative Agent, on the other hand, shall be solely that of borrower and lender. None of
the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender shall have any fiduciary responsibilities
to the Borrower and no provision in this Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents, and no
course of dealing between or among any of the parties hereto, shall be deemed to create any
fiduciary duty owing by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender to any Lender, the
Borrower, any Subsidiary or any other Loan Party. None of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing
Bank or any Lender undertakes any responsibility to the Borrower to review or inform the Borrower
of any matter in connection with any phase of the Borrower’s business or operations.

Section 12.8. Confidentiality.

Except as otherwise provided by Applicable Law, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and
each Lender shall maintain the confidentiality of all Information (as defined below) in accordance
with its customary procedure for handling confidential information of this nature and in accordance
with safe and sound banking practices but in any event may make disclosure: (a) to its Affiliates
and to its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents,
advisors and other representatives (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) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same
as those of this Section, to (i) any actual or proposed Assignee, Participant or other transferee
in connection with a potential transfer of any Commitment or participation therein as permitted
hereunder, or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or
derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations, or (iii) CUSIP Service Bureau;
(c) as required or requested by any Governmental Authority or representative thereof or pursuant to
legal process or in connection with any legal proceedings, or as otherwise required by Applicable
Law; (d) to the Administrative Agent’s, Issuing Bank’s or such Lender’s independent auditors and
other professional advisors (provided they shall be notified of the confidential nature of the
information); (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies under any Loan Document (or any
Specified Derivatives Contract) or any action or proceeding relating to any Loan Document (or any
such Specified Derivatives Contract) or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder; (f) to
the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of
this Section actually known by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Lender to be a
breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, any
Lender or any Affiliate of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender on a
nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower or any Affiliate of the Borrower; (g)
to the extent requested by, or required to be disclosed to, any nationally recognized rating agency
or regulatory or similar authority (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National
Association of Insurance Commissioners) having or purporting to have jurisdiction over it; (h) to
bank trade publications, such information to consist of deal terms and other information
customarily found in such publications; (i) to any other party hereto; and (j) with the consent of
the Borrower. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and
each Lender may disclose any such confidential information, without notice to the Borrower or any
other Loan Party, to Governmental Authorities in connection with any regulatory examination of the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Lender or in accordance with the regulatory
compliance policy of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Lender. As used in this
Section, the term “Information” means all information received from the Borrower, any other Loan
Party, any other Subsidiary or Affiliate relating to any Loan Party or any of their respective
businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any
Lender or the Issuing Bank on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower, any
other Loan Party, any other Subsidiary or any Affiliate, provided that, in the case of any such
information received from the Borrower, any other Loan Party, any other Subsidiary or any Affiliate
after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as
confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in
this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has
exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such
Person would accord to its own confidential information.

Section 12.9. Indemnification.

(a) The Borrower shall and hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, the Lenders, all of the Affiliates of each of the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any of the Lenders, and their respective directors,
officers, shareholders, agents, employees and counsel (each referred to herein as an “Indemnified
Party”) from and against any and all of the following (collectively, the “Indemnified Costs”):
losses, costs, claims, penalties, damages, liabilities, deficiencies, judgments or expenses of
every kind and nature (including, without limitation, amounts paid in settlement, court costs and
the fees and disbursements of counsel incurred in connection with any litigation, investigation,
claim or proceeding or any advice rendered in connection therewith, but excluding Indemnified Costs
indemnification in respect of which is specifically covered by Section 3.10. or 4.1. or expressly
excluded from the coverage of such Sections) incurred by an Indemnified Party in connection with,
arising out of, or by reason of, any suit, cause of action, claim, arbitration, investigation or
settlement, consent decree or other proceeding (the foregoing referred to herein as an “Indemnity
Proceeding”) which is in any way related directly or indirectly to: (i) this Agreement or any other
Loan Document or the transactions contemplated thereby; (ii) the making of any Loans or issuance of
Letters of Credit hereunder; (iii) any actual or proposed use by the Borrower of the proceeds of
the Loans or Letters of Credit; (iv) the Administrative Agent’s, the Issuing Bank’s or any Lender’s
entering into this Agreement; (v) the fact that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the
Lenders have established the credit facility evidenced hereby in favor of the Borrower; (vi) the
fact that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders are creditors of the Borrower
and have or are alleged to have information regarding the financial condition, strategic plans or
business operations of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries; (vii) the fact that the Administrative
Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders are material creditors of the Borrower and are alleged to
influence directly or indirectly the business decisions or affairs of the Borrower and the
Subsidiaries or their financial condition; (viii) the exercise of any right or remedy the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Lenders may have under this Agreement or the other
Loan Documents; (ix) any civil penalty or fine assessed by the OFAC against, and all costs and
expenses (including counsel fees and disbursements) incurred in connection with defense thereof by,
the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender as a result of conduct of the Borrower,
any other Loan Party or any other Subsidiary that violates a sanction administered or enforced by
the OFAC; or (x) any violation or non-compliance by the Borrower or any Subsidiary of any
Applicable Law (including any Environmental Law) including, but not limited to, any Indemnity
Proceeding commenced by (A) the Internal Revenue Service or state taxing authority or (B) any
Governmental Authority or other Person under any Environmental Law, including any Indemnity
Proceeding commenced by a Governmental Authority or other Person seeking remedial or other action
to cause the Borrower or its Subsidiaries (or its respective properties) (or the Administrative
Agent and/or the Lenders and/or the Issuing Bank as
successors to the Borrower) to be in compliance with such Environmental Laws; provided, however,
that the Borrower shall not be obligated to indemnify any Indemnified Party for any acts or
omissions of such Indemnified Party in connection with matters described in this subsection to the
extent arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party, as
admitted by an Indemnified Party in writing or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a
final, non-appealable judgment.

 

 - 98 - 

 

(b) The Borrower’s indemnification obligations under this Section shall apply to all Indemnity
Proceedings arising out of, or related to, the foregoing whether or not an Indemnified Party is a
named party in such Indemnity Proceeding. In this connection, this indemnification shall cover all
Indemnified Costs of any Indemnified Party in connection with any deposition of any Indemnified
Party or compliance with any subpoena (including any subpoena requesting the production of
documents). This indemnification shall, among other things, apply to any Indemnity Proceeding
commenced by other creditors of the Borrower or any Subsidiary, any shareholder of the Borrower or
any Subsidiary (whether such shareholder(s) are prosecuting such Indemnity Proceeding in their
individual capacity or derivatively on behalf of the Borrower), any account debtor of the Borrower
or any Subsidiary or by any Governmental Authority. If indemnification is to be sought hereunder by
an Indemnified Party, then such Indemnified Party shall notify the Borrower of the commencement of
any Indemnity Proceeding; provided, however, that the failure to so notify the Borrower shall not
relieve the Borrower from any liability that it may have to such Indemnified Party pursuant to this
Section 12.9.

(c) This indemnification shall apply to any Indemnity Proceeding arising during the pendency
of any bankruptcy proceeding filed by or against the Borrower and/or any Subsidiary.

(d) All out-of-pocket fees and expenses of, and all amounts paid to third-persons by, an
Indemnified Party shall be advanced by the Borrower at the request of such Indemnified Party
notwithstanding any claim or assertion by the Borrower that such Indemnified Party is not entitled
to indemnification hereunder upon receipt of an undertaking by such Indemnified Party that such
Indemnified Party will reimburse the Borrower if it is actually and finally determined by a court
of competent jurisdiction or such Indemnified Party admits in writing that such Indemnified Party
is not so entitled to indemnification hereunder.

(e) Subject to Section 12.9(f), an Indemnified Party may conduct its own investigation and
defense of, and may formulate its own strategy with respect to, any Indemnity Proceeding covered by
this Section and, as provided above, all Indemnified Costs incurred by such Indemnified Party shall
be reimbursed by the Borrower. No action taken by legal counsel chosen by an Indemnified Party in
investigating or defending against any such Indemnity Proceeding shall vitiate or in any way impair
the obligations and duties of the Borrower hereunder to indemnify and hold harmless each such
Indemnified Party; provided, however, that if (i) the Borrower is required to indemnify an
Indemnified Party pursuant hereto and (ii) the Borrower has provided evidence reasonably
satisfactory to such Indemnified Party that the Borrower has the financial wherewithal to reimburse
such Indemnified Party for any amount paid by such Indemnified Party with respect to such Indemnity
Proceeding, such Indemnified Party shall not settle or compromise any such Indemnity Proceeding
without the prior written consent of the Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld
or delayed). Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Indemnified Party may settle or compromise any such
Indemnity Proceeding without the prior written consent of the Borrower where (x) no monetary relief
is sought against such Indemnified Party in such Indemnity Proceeding or (y) there is an allegation
of a violation of law by such Indemnified Party.

 

 - 99 - 

 

(f) Notwithstanding the above, following the notification contemplated by Section 12.9.(b),
the Borrower may elect in writing to assume the defense of such action or proceeding, and, upon
such election, it shall not be liable for any legal costs subsequently incurred by such Indemnified
Party (other than reasonable costs of investigation and providing evidence) in connection
therewith, unless (i) the
Borrower and the Indemnified Party have failed to agree in writing to the retention of such
counsel, (ii) the named parties to any such Indemnity Proceeding (including any impleaded parties)
include the Borrower and such Indemnified Party and representation of both parties by the same
counsel would, in the opinion of counsel to such Indemnified Party, be inappropriate due to actual
or potential conflicts of interests between the Borrower and such Indemnified Party or (iii) the
Indemnified Party reasonably determines that there may be legal defenses available to it which are
different from or in addition to those available to the Borrower. The Borrower shall not settle,
compromise, consent to the entry of judgment or otherwise seek to terminate such Indemnity
Proceeding without the consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld, conditioned or delayed provided that Borrower may settle or compromise such Indemnity
Proceeding without such consent if only monetary relief is sought against such Indemnified Party.

(g) If and to the extent that the obligations of the Borrower under this Section are
unenforceable for any reason, the Borrower hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the
payment and satisfaction of such obligations which is permissible under Applicable Law.

(h) The Borrower’s obligations under this Section shall survive any termination of this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the payment in full in cash of the Obligations, and are
in addition to, and not in substitution of, any of the other obligations set forth in this
Agreement or any other Loan Document to which it is a party.

References in this Section 12.9. to “Lender” or “Lenders” shall be deemed to include such Persons
(and their Affiliates) in their capacity as Specified Derivatives Providers.

Section 12.10. Termination; Survival.

This Agreement shall terminate at such time as (a) all of the Commitments have been
terminated, (b) all Letters of Credit have terminated or expired or been canceled, (c) none of the
Lenders is obligated any longer under this Agreement to make any Loans and the Issuing Bank is no
longer obligated under this Agreement to issue Letters of Credit and (d) all Obligations (other
than obligations which survive as provided in the following sentence) have been paid and satisfied
in full. The indemnities to which the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders are
entitled under the provisions of Sections 3.10., 4.1., 4.4., 11.6., 12.2. and 12.9. and any other
provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the provisions of Section 12.4.,
shall continue in full force and effect and shall protect the Administrative Agent, the Issuing
Bank and the Lenders (i) notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, or of the other Loan
Documents, against events arising after such termination as well as before and (ii) at all times
after any such party ceases to be a party to this Agreement with respect to all matters and events
existing on or prior to the date such party ceased to be a party to this Agreement.

Section 12.11. Severability of Provisions.

If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be determined by a court
of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision shall be deemed severed
from the Loan Documents, and the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions
shall remain in full force as though the invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision had never
been part of the Loan Documents.

 

 - 100 - 

 

Section 12.12. GOVERNING LAW.

THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE
OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS EXECUTED, AND TO BE FULLY PERFORMED, IN SUCH STATE.

Section 12.13. Counterparts.

To facilitate execution, this Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents or supplements
may be executed in any number of counterparts as may be convenient or required (which may be
effectively delivered by facsimile, in portable document format (“PDF”) or other similar electronic
means). It shall not be necessary that the signature of, or on behalf of, each party, or that the
signature of all persons required to bind any party, appear on each counterpart. All counterparts
shall collectively constitute a single document. It shall not be necessary in making proof of this
document to produce or account for more than a single counterpart containing the respective
signatures of, or on behalf of, each of the parties hereto.

Section 12.14. Obligations with Respect to Loan Parties.

The obligations of the Borrower to direct or prohibit the taking of certain actions by the
other Loan Parties as specified herein shall be absolute and not subject to any defense the
Borrower may have that the Borrower does not control such Loan Parties.

Section 12.15. Independence of Covenants.

All covenants hereunder shall be given in any jurisdiction independent effect so that if a
particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be
permitted by an exception to, or be otherwise within the limitations of, another covenant shall not
avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or condition
exists.

Section 12.16. Limitation of Liability.

None of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender, or any Affiliate, officer,
director, employee, attorney, or agent of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender
shall have any liability with respect to, and the Borrower hereby waives, releases, and agrees not
to sue any of them upon, any claim for any special, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages
suffered or incurred by the Borrower in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to,
this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or the Fee Letter, or any of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. The Borrower hereby waives,
releases, and agrees not to sue the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender or any of
the Administrative Agent’s, the Issuing Bank’s or any Lender’s Affiliates, officers, directors,
employees, attorneys, or agents for punitive damages in respect of any claim in connection with,
arising out of, or in any way related to, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, the Fee
Letter, or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or financed hereby.

 

 - 101 - 

 

Section 12.17. Entire Agreement.

This Agreement, the Notes, the other Loan Documents and the Fee Letter embody the final,
entire agreement among the parties hereto and supersede any and all prior commitments, agreements,
representations, and understandings, whether written or oral, relating to the subject matter hereof
and
thereof and may not be contradicted or varied by evidence of prior, contemporaneous, or subsequent
oral agreements or discussions of the parties hereto. There are no oral agreements among the
parties hereto.

Section 12.18. Construction.

The Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, the Borrower and each Lender acknowledge that each
of them has had the benefit of legal counsel of its own choice and has been afforded an opportunity
to review this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with its legal counsel and that this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be construed as if jointly drafted by the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, the Borrower and each Lender.

Section 12.19. Headings.

The paragraph and section headings in this Agreement are provided for convenience of reference
only and shall not affect its construction or interpretation.

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which
hereby are acknowledged by the parties hereto, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

Section 1. Designation. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the
Designating Lender hereby designates the Designated Lender, and the Designated Lender hereby
accepts such designation, to have a right to make Bid Rate Loans on behalf of the Designating
Lender pursuant to Section 2.2. of the Credit Agreement. Any assignment by the Designating Lender

conditions hereof, hereby agrees to make such accepted Bid Rate Loans and to perform such other
obligations as may be required of it as a Designated Lender under the Credit Agreement.

Section 2. Designating Lender Not Discharged. Notwithstanding the designation of the
Designated Lender hereunder, the Designating Lender shall be and remain obligated to the Borrower,
the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for each and every of the obligations of the Designating

furnished pursuant thereto and (b) the financial condition of the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any
other Loan Party or the performance or observance by the Borrower or any other Loan Party of any of

or document furnished pursuant thereto.

 

C-1

 

Section 4. Representations and Covenants of Designated Lender. The Designated Lender
makes and confirms to the Administrative Agent, the Designating Lender, and the other Lenders all

“Designated Lender” contained in the definition of such term contained in the Credit Agreement; (b)
confirms that it has received a copy of the Credit Agreement, together with copies of the most
recent financial statements referred to therein or delivered pursuant thereto and such other
documents and information (including without limitation the Loan Documents) as it has deemed
appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement; (c)
confirms that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, or any
Affiliate thereof, the Designating Lender or any other Lender and based on such financial
statements and such other documents and information, made its own credit and legal analysis and

Administrative Agent to take such action as contractual representative on its behalf and to

terms thereof together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (e) agrees that
it will become a party to and shall be bound by the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents to
which the other Lenders are a party on the Effective Date (as defined below) and will perform in
accordance therewith all of the obligations which are required to be performed by it as a
Designated Lender. The Designated Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without
reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Designating Lender or any other Lender and based on
such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own
credit decisions in taking or not taking action under the Credit Agreement or any Note or pursuant
to any other obligation. The Designated Lender acknowledges and agrees that except as expressly
required under the Credit Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or responsibility
whatsoever, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide the Designated Lender with any
credit or other information with respect to the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any other Loan Party or
to notify the Designated Lender of any Default or Event of Default.

Administrative Agent, as of the Effective Date, the Designated Lender shall be a party to the
Credit Agreement with a right to make Bid Rate Loans as a Lender pursuant to Section 2.2. of the
Credit Agreement and the rights and obligations of a Lender related thereto; provided,
however, that the Designated Lender shall not be
required to make payments with respect to such obligations except to the extent of excess cash
flow of the Designated Lender which is not otherwise required to repay obligations of the
Designated Lender which are then due and payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Designating
Lender, as agent for the Designated Lender, shall be and remain obligated to the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders for each and every of the obligations of the Designated Lender
and the Designating Lender with respect to the Credit Agreement.

Section 8. Indemnification of Designated Lender. The Designating Lender
unconditionally agrees to pay or reimburse the Designated Lender and save the Designated Lender
harmless against all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments,
suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed or
asserted by any of the parties to the Loan Documents against the Designated Lender, in its capacity
as such, in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents or any
action taken or omitted by the Designated Lender hereunder or thereunder, provided that the
Designating Lender shall not be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements if the same results
from the Designated Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS EXECUTED, AND TO BE

THIS GUARANTY dated as of                     , 2011 executed and delivered by each of the
undersigned and the other Persons from time to time party hereto pursuant to the execution and
delivery of an Accession Agreement in the form of Annex I hereto (all of the undersigned, together
with such other Persons each a “Guarantor” and collectively, the “Guarantors”) in favor of WELLS
FARGO BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, in its capacity as Administrative Agent (the “Administrative
Agent”) for the Lenders under that certain Credit Agreement dated as of October

the other parties thereto, for its benefit and the benefit of the Lenders, and the Issuing Bank
(the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, and the Issuing Bank, each individually a “Guarantied
Party” and collectively, the “Guarantied Parties”).

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, the
Swingline Lender and the Lenders have agreed to make available to the Borrower certain financial
accommodations on the terms and conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement;

WHEREAS, each Guarantor is directly or indirectly owned or controlled by the Borrower, or is
otherwise an Affiliate of the Borrower;

WHEREAS, the Borrower and each Guarantor, though separate legal entities, are mutually
dependent on each other in the conduct of their respective businesses as an integrated operation
and have determined it to be in their mutual best interests to obtain financing from the Guarantied
Parties through their collective efforts;

WHEREAS, each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from
the Guarantied Parties making such financial accommodations available to the Borrower under the
Credit Agreement and, accordingly, each Guarantor is willing to guarantee the Borrower’s
obligations to the Guarantied Parties on the terms and conditions contained herein; and

WHEREAS, each Guarantor’s execution and delivery of this Guaranty is a condition to the
Administrative Agent and the other Guarantied Parties’ making such financial accommodations to the

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are
hereby acknowledged by each Guarantor, each Guarantor agrees as follows:

Section 1. Guaranty. Each Guarantor hereby absolutely, irrevocably and
unconditionally guaranties the due and punctual payment and performance when due, whether at stated
maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of all of the following (collectively referred to as the
“Guarantied Obligations”): (a) all indebtedness and obligations owing by the Borrower or any other
Loan Party to any Lender or the Administrative Agent under or in connection with the Credit

D-1

 

Section 2. Guaranty of Payment and Not of Collection. This Guaranty is a guaranty of
payment, and not of collection, and a debt of each Guarantor for its own account. Accordingly, the
Guarantied Parties shall not be obligated or required before enforcing this Guaranty against any
Guarantor: (a) to pursue any right or remedy the Guarantied Parties may have against the Borrower,
any other Loan Party or any other Person or commence any suit or other proceeding against the
Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person in any court or other tribunal; (b) to make any
claim in a liquidation or bankruptcy of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person; or
(c) to make demand of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person or to enforce or seek

any of the Guarantied Obligations.

Section 3. Guaranty Absolute. Each Guarantor guarantees that the Guarantied
Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the documents evidencing the
same, regardless of any Applicable Law now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any
of such terms or the rights of the Guarantied Parties with respect thereto. The liability of each
Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be absolute, irrevocable and unconditional in accordance with
its terms and shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be released,
suspended, discharged, terminated or otherwise affected by, any circumstance or occurrence
whatsoever, including without limitation, the following (whether or not such Guarantor consents
thereto or has notice thereof):

(a) (i) any change in the amount, interest rate or due date or other term of any of the
Guarantied Obligations, (ii) any change in the time, place or manner of payment of all or any
portion of the Guarantied Obligations, (iii) any amendment or waiver of, or consent to the
departure from or other indulgence with respect to, the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document,
or any other document or instrument evidencing or relating to any Guarantied Obligations, or (iv)
any waiver, renewal, extension, addition, or supplement to, or deletion from, or any other action
or inaction under or in respect of, the Credit Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, or any
other documents, instruments or agreements relating to the Guarantied Obligations or any other
instrument or agreement referred to therein or evidencing any Guarantied Obligations or any
assignment or transfer of any of the foregoing;

(b) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement, any of the other Loan
Documents or any other document, instrument or agreement referred to therein or evidencing
any Guarantied Obligations or any assignment or transfer of any of the foregoing;

(c) any furnishing to the Guarantied Parties of any security for the Guarantied Obligations,
or any sale, exchange, release or surrender of, or realization on, any collateral securing any of
the Guarantied Obligations;

(d) any settlement or compromise of any of the Guarantied Obligations, any security therefor,
or any liability of any other party with respect to the Guarantied Obligations, or any
subordination of the payment of the Guarantied Obligations to the payment of any other liability of
the Borrower or any other Loan Party;

(e) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, composition, adjustment, dissolution,
liquidation or other like proceeding relating to such Guarantor, the Borrower, any other Loan Party
or any other Person, or any action taken with respect to this Guaranty by any trustee or receiver,
or by any court, in any such proceeding;

 

D-2

 

(f) any act or failure to act by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person which
may adversely affect such Guarantor’s subrogation rights, if any, against the Borrower to recover
payments made under this Guaranty;

(g) any nonperfection or impairment of any security interest or other Lien on any collateral,
if any, securing in any way any of the Guarantied Obligations;

(h) any application of sums paid by the Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Person with
respect to the liabilities of the Borrower to the Guarantied Parties, regardless of what

(i) any defect, limitation or insufficiency in the borrowing powers of the Borrower or in the
exercise thereof;

(j) any defense, set off, claim or counterclaim (other than indefeasible payment and
performance in full) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by the Borrower, any
other Loan party or any other Person against the Administrative Agent or any Lender;

(k) any change in corporate existence, structure or ownership of the Borrower or any other
Loan Party;

(l) any statement, representation or warranty made or deemed made by or on behalf of the
Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Loan Party under any Loan Document, or any amendment hereto or
thereto, proves to have been incorrect or misleading in any respect; or

(m) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a
discharge of, a Guarantor hereunder (other than indefeasible payment in full).

Section 4. Action with Respect to Guarantied Obligations. The Guaranteed Parties
may, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of, or notice to, any Guarantor, and
without discharging any Guarantor from its obligations hereunder, take any and all actions
described in Section 3. and may otherwise: (a) amend, modify, alter or supplement the terms of any
of the Guarantied Obligations, including, but not limited to, extending or shortening the time of
payment of any of the Guarantied Obligations or changing the interest rate that may accrue on any
of the Guarantied Obligations; (b) amend, modify, alter or supplement the Credit Agreement or any
other Loan Document; (c) sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with all, or any part, of any
collateral securing any of the Guarantied Obligations; (d) release any Loan Party or other Person
liable in any manner for the payment or collection of the Guarantied Obligations; (e) exercise, or
refrain from exercising, any rights against the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person;
and (f) apply any sum, by whomsoever paid or however realized, to the Guarantied Obligations in
such order as the Guarantied Parties shall elect.

Section 5. Representations and Warranties. Each Guarantor hereby makes to the
Administrative Agent and the other Guarantied Parties all of the representations and warranties
made by the Borrower with respect to or in any way relating to such Guarantor in the Credit
Agreement and the other Loan Documents, as if the same were set forth herein in full.

Section 6. Covenants. Each Guarantor will comply with all covenants with which the
Borrower is to cause such Guarantor to comply under the terms of the Credit Agreement or any of the
other Loan Documents.

 

D-3

 

Section 7. Waiver. Each Guarantor, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable
Law, hereby waives notice of acceptance hereof or any presentment, demand, protest or notice of any
kind, and any other act or thing, or omission or delay to do any other act or thing, which in any
manner or to any extent might vary the risk of such Guarantor or which otherwise might operate to
discharge such Guarantor from its obligations hereunder.

Section 8. Inability to Accelerate Loan. If the Guarantied Parties or any of them
are prevented under Applicable Law or otherwise from demanding or accelerating payment of any of
the Guarantied Obligations by reason of any automatic stay or otherwise, the Administrative Agent
and/or the other Guarantied Parties shall be entitled to receive from each Guarantor, upon demand
therefor, the sums which otherwise would have been due had such demand or acceleration occurred.

Section 9. Reinstatement of Guarantied Obligations. If claim is ever made on the
Administrative Agent or any other Guarantied Party for repayment or recovery of any amount or
amounts received in payment or on account of any of the Guarantied Obligations, and the
Administrative Agent or such other Guarantied Party repays all or part of said amount by reason of
(a) any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative body of competent jurisdiction, or
(b) any settlement or compromise of any such claim effected by the Administrative Agent or such
other Guarantied Party with any such claimant (including the Borrower or a trustee in bankruptcy
for the Borrower), then and in such event each Guarantor agrees that any such judgment, decree,
order, settlement or compromise shall be binding on it, notwithstanding any revocation hereof or
the cancellation of the Credit Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, or any other instrument
evidencing any liability of the Borrower, and such Guarantor shall be and remain liable to the
Administrative Agent or such other Guarantied Party for the amounts so repaid or recovered to the
same extent as if such amount had never originally been paid to the Administrative Agent or such
other Guarantied Party.

Section 10. Subrogation. Upon the making by any Guarantor of any payment hereunder
for the account of the Borrower, such Guarantor shall be subrogated to the rights of the payee
against the Borrower; provided, however, that such Guarantor shall not enforce any
right or receive any payment by way of subrogation or otherwise take any action in respect of any
other claim or cause of action such Guarantor may have against the Borrower arising by reason of
any payment or performance by such Guarantor pursuant to this Guaranty, unless and until all of the
Guarantied Obligations have been indefeasibly paid and performed in full. If any amount shall be
paid to such Guarantor on account of or in respect of such subrogation rights or other claims or
causes of action, such Guarantor shall hold such amount in trust for the benefit of the Guarantied
Parties and shall forthwith pay such amount to the Administrative Agent to be credited and applied
against the Guarantied Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of
the Credit Agreement or to be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral security for any
Guarantied Obligations existing.

Section 11. Payments Free and Clear. All sums payable by each Guarantor hereunder,
whether of principal, interest, fees, expenses, premiums or otherwise, shall be paid in full,
without set-off or counterclaim or any deduction or withholding whatsoever (including any Taxes),
and if such Guarantor is required by Applicable Law or by any Governmental Authority to make any
such deduction or withholding such Guarantor shall pay to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders
such additional amount as will result in the receipt by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders of
the full amount payable hereunder had such deduction or withholding not occurred or been required.

 

D-4

 

Section 12. Set-off. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under any of
the other Loan Documents or Applicable Law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, each
Guarantor hereby authorizes each Guarantied Party and each Participant, at any time while an Event
of Default exists, without any prior notice to such Guarantor or to any other Person, any such
notice being hereby
expressly waived, but in the case of a Lender, the Issuing Bank or a Participant subject to receipt
of the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion, to set-off and to
appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, including, but not limited to,
indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured) and any other
indebtedness at any time held or owing by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, such Lender
or such Participant or any affiliate of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, such Lender or
such Participant to or for the credit or the account of such Guarantor against and on account of
any of the Guarantied Obligations, although such obligations shall be contingent or unmatured.
Each Guarantor agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, that any Participant may
exercise rights of setoff or counterclaim and other rights with respect to its participation as
fully as if such Participant were a direct creditor of such Guarantor in the amount of such
participation.

Section 13. Subordination. Each Guarantor hereby expressly covenants and agrees for
the benefit of the Guarantied Parties that all obligations and liabilities of the Borrower to such
Guarantor of whatever description, including without limitation, all intercompany receivables of
such Guarantor from the Borrower (collectively, the “Junior Claims”) shall be subordinate and
junior in right of payment to all Guarantied Obligations. If an Event of Default shall exist, then
no Guarantor shall accept any direct or indirect payment (in cash, property or securities, by
setoff or otherwise) from the Borrower on account of or in any manner in respect of any Junior
Claim until all of the Guarantied Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full.

Section 14. Avoidance Provisions. It is the intent of each Guarantor, the
Administrative Agent and the other Guarantied Parties that in any Proceeding, such Guarantor’s
maximum obligation hereunder shall equal, but not exceed, the maximum amount which would not
otherwise cause the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder (or any other obligations of such
Guarantor to the Guarantied Parties) to be avoidable or unenforceable against such Guarantor in
such Proceeding as a result of Applicable Law, including without limitation, (a) Section 548 of the
Bankruptcy Code of 1978, as amended (the “Bankruptcy Code”) and (b) any state fraudulent transfer
or fraudulent conveyance act or statute applied in such Proceeding, whether by virtue of Section
544 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise. The Applicable Laws under which the possible avoidance or
unenforceability of the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder (or any other obligations of such
Guarantor to the Guarantied Parties) shall be determined in any such Proceeding are referred to as
the “Avoidance Provisions”. Accordingly, to the extent that the obligations of any Guarantor
hereunder would otherwise be subject to avoidance under the Avoidance Provisions, the maximum
Guarantied Obligations for which such Guarantor shall be liable hereunder shall be reduced to that
amount which, as of the time any of the Guarantied Obligations are deemed to have been incurred
under the Avoidance Provisions, would not cause the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder (or any
other obligations of such Guarantor to the Guarantied Parties), to be subject to avoidance under
the Avoidance Provisions. This Section is intended solely to preserve the rights of the
Administrative Agent and the other Guarantied Parties hereunder to the maximum extent that would
not cause the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder to be subject to avoidance under the Avoidance
Provisions, and no Guarantor or any other Person shall have any right or claim under this Section
as against the Guarantied Parties that would not otherwise be available to such Person under the
Avoidance Provisions.

Section 15. Information. Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and
keeping itself informed of the financial condition of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties, and
of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of any of the Guarantied Obligations
and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that such Guarantor assumes and incurs hereunder, and
agrees that neither the Administrative Agent nor any other Guarantied Party shall have any duty
whatsoever to advise any Guarantor of information regarding such circumstances or risks.

 

D-5

 

Section 16. Governing Law. THIS GUARANTY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND
ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS EXECUTED,
AND TO BE FULLY PERFORMED, IN SUCH STATE.

SECTION 17. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.

(a) EACH GUARANTOR, AND EACH OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE OTHER GUARANTIED PARTIES BY
ACCEPTING THE BENEFITS HEREOF, ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ANY DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY BETWEEN SUCH GUARANTOR,
THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER GUARANTIED PARTES WOULD BE BASED ON DIFFICULT AND
COMPLEX ISSUES OF LAW AND FACT AND WOULD RESULT IN DELAY AND EXPENSE TO THE PARTIES. ACCORDINGLY,
TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH OF THE GUARANTORS, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE
OTHER GUARANTIED PARTIES HEREBY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING OF
ANY KIND OR NATURE IN ANY COURT OR TRIBUNAL IN WHICH AN ACTION MAY BE COMMENCED BY OR AGAINST ANY
PARTY HERETO ARISING OUT OF THIS GUARANTY.

(b) EACH GUARANTOR, AND EACH OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE OTHER GUARANTIED PARTIES BY
ACCEPTING THE BENEFITS HEREOF, HEREBY AGREES THAT ANY FEDERAL DISTRICT COURT LOCATED IN THE
SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK AND ANY STATE COURT LOCATED IN NEW YORK, NEW YORK SHALL HAVE
JURISDICTION TO HEAR AND DETERMINE ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN OR AMONG THE GUARANTORS, THE
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER GUARANTIED PARTIES, PERTAINING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY TO
THIS GUARANTY. EACH GUARANTOR AND EACH OF THE GUARANTIED PARTIES EXPRESSLY SUBMITS AND CONSENTS IN
ADVANCE TO SUCH JURISDICTION IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING COMMENCED IN SUCH COURTS. EACH PARTY
FURTHER WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR
PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT OR THAT SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING WAS BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM
AND EACH AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM THE SAME. THE CHOICE OF FORUM SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION
SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO PRECLUDE THE BRINGING OF ANY ACTION BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OTHER
GUARANTIED PARTY OR THE ENFORCEMENT BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OTHER GUARANTIED PARTY OF
ANY JUDGMENT OBTAINED IN SUCH FORUM IN ANY OTHER APPROPRIATE JURISDICTION.

(c) THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION HAVE BEEN CONSIDERED BY EACH PARTY WITH THE ADVICE OF
COUNSEL AND WITH A FULL UNDERSTANDING OF THE LEGAL CONSEQUENCES THEREOF, AND SHALL SURVIVE THE
PAYMENT OF THE LOANS AND ALL OTHER AMOUNTS PAYABLE HEREUNDER OR UNDER THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, THE
TERMINATION, CANCELLATION OR EXPIRATION OF ALL LETTERS OF CREDIT AND THE TERMINATION OF THIS
GUARANTY.

Section 18. Loan Accounts. The Administrative Agent and each Lender and the
Swingline Lender may maintain books and accounts setting forth the amounts of principal, interest
and other sums paid and payable with respect to the Guarantied Obligations arising under or in
connection with the Credit Agreement, and in the case of any dispute relating to any of the
outstanding amount, payment or receipt of any of such Guarantied Obligations or otherwise, the
entries in such books and accounts shall constitute prima facie evidence of the amounts and other
matters set forth therein. The failure of the
Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender or any Lender to maintain such books and accounts shall
not in any way relieve or discharge any Guarantor of any of its obligations hereunder.

 

D-6

 

Section 19. Waiver of Remedies. No delay or failure on the part of the
Administrative Agent or any other Guarantied Party in the exercise of any right or remedy it may
have against any Guarantor hereunder or otherwise shall operate as a waiver thereof, and no single
or partial exercise by the Administrative Agent or any other Guarantied Party of any such right or
remedy shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other such right
or remedy.

Section 20. Termination. This Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect with
respect to each Guarantor until indefeasible payment in full of the Guarantied Obligations and the
other Obligations and the termination or cancellation of the Credit Agreement and all Specified
Derivatives Contracts in accordance with their respective terms and the termination, cancellation
or expiration of all Letters of Credit.

Section 21. Successors and Assigns. Each reference herein to the Administrative
Agent or any other Guarantied Party shall be deemed to include such Person’s respective successors
and assigns (including, but not limited to, any holder of the Guarantied Obligations) in whose
favor the provisions of this Guaranty also shall inure, and each reference herein to each Guarantor
shall be deemed to include such Guarantor’s successors and assigns, upon whom this Guaranty also
shall be binding. The Guarantied Parties may, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the
Credit Agreement, assign, transfer or sell any Guarantied Obligation, or grant or sell
participations in any Guarantied Obligations, to any Person without the consent of, or notice to,
any Guarantor and without releasing, discharging or modifying any Guarantor’s obligations
hereunder. Each Guarantor hereby consents to the delivery by the Administrative Agent or any other
Guarantied Party to any Assignee or Participant (or any prospective Assignee or Participant) of any
financial or other information regarding the Borrower or any Guarantor. No Guarantor may assign or
transfer its rights or obligations hereunder to any Person without the prior written consent of all
Lenders and any such assignment or other transfer to which all of the Lenders have not so consented
shall be null and void.

Section 22. JOINT AND SEVERAL OBLIGATIONS. THE OBLIGATIONS OF THE GUARANTORS
HEREUNDER SHALL BE JOINT AND SEVERAL, AND, ACCORDINGLY, EACH GUARANTOR CONFIRMS THAT IT IS LIABLE
FOR THE FULL AMOUNT OF THE “GUARANTIED OBLIGATIONS” AND ALL OF THE OBLIGATIONS AND LIABILITIES OF
EACH OF THE OTHER GUARANTORS HEREUNDER.

Section 23. Amendments. This Guaranty may not be amended except in writing signed by
the Administrative Agent and each Guarantor, subject to Section 12.6. of the Credit Agreement.

Guaranty shall be made in Dollars, in immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent at
its Principal Office, not later than 12:00 p.m. Eastern time, on the date one Business Day after
demand therefor.

Section 25. Notices. All notices, requests and other communications hereunder shall
be in writing (including facsimile transmission or similar writing) and shall be given (a) to each
Guarantor at its address set forth below its signature hereto, (b) to the Administrative Agent or
any other Guarantied Party at its address for notices provided for in the Credit Agreement, or (c)

the other parties. Each such notice, request or other communication shall be effective (i) if
mailed, when received; (ii) if telecopied, when transmitted; or (iii) if hand delivered, when

shall not be effective until received.

 

D-7

 

Section 26. Severability. In case any provision of this Guaranty shall be invalid,
illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the
remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

Section 27. Headings. Section headings used in this Guaranty are for convenience
only and shall not affect the construction of this Guaranty.

OBLIGATION OF, OR CLAIM AGAINST, SUCH GUARANTOR. ALL PERSONS DEALING WITH SUCH GUARANTOR, IN ANY
WAY, SHALL LOOK ONLY TO THE ASSETS OF SUCH GUARANTOR FOR THE PAYMENT OF ANY SUM OR THE PERFORMANCE
OF ANY OBLIGATION OWING BY SUCH GUARANTOR HEREUNDER. THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION SHALL NOT LIMIT
ANY OBLIGATIONS OF ANY LOAN PARTY.

Section 29. Limitation of Liability. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any other
Guarantied Party, nor any affiliate, officer, director, employee, attorney, or agent of the
Administrative Agent or any other Guarantied Party, shall have any liability with respect to, and
each Guarantor hereby waives, releases, and agrees not to sue any of them upon, any claim for any
special, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages suffered or incurred by a Guarantor in
connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to, this Guaranty or any of the other Loan
Documents, or any of the transactions contemplated by this Guaranty, the Credit Agreement or any of
the other Loan Documents. Each Guarantor hereby waives, releases, and agrees not to sue the
Administrative Agent or any other Guarantied Party or any of the Administrative Agent’s or any
other Guarantied Party’s affiliates, officers, directors, employees, attorneys, or agents for
punitive damages in respect of any claim in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related
to, this Guaranty, the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or any of the
transactions contemplated by thereby.

FORM OF OPINION OF COUNSEL

Minneapolis Loan Center

MAC N9303-110

608 Second Ave. South, 11th Floor

Minneapolis, Minnesota 55402-1916

The Lenders party to the Credit Agreement
referred to below

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel to UDR, Inc., a corporation formed under the laws of the State of
Maryland (the “Borrower”), in connection with the negotiation, execution and delivery of that
certain Credit Agreement dated as of October
 _____ 
2011 (the “Credit Agreement”), by and among the
Borrower, each of the financial institutions initially a signatory thereto together with their
assignees pursuant to Section 12.5. and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Administrative
Agent. We have also acted as counsel to
 _____ 
(each a “Guarantor” and
collectively, the “Guarantors”, and together with the Borrower collectively referred to as the
“Loan Parties”) in connection with the Guaranty dated as of October
 _____ 
2011, made by each
Guarantor in favor of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders. All capitalized terms used but not
defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Credit Agreement.

In these capacities, we have reviewed the following:

(a) the Credit Agreement;

(b) Revolving Notes;

(c) Swingline Note;

(d) [Bid Rate Notes] [if necessary]

(e) the Guaranty; and

(f) [other Loan Documents].

The documents and instruments set forth in items (a) through (f) above are referred to herein as
the “Loan Documents”.

In addition to the foregoing, we have reviewed the articles of incorporation and by-laws,
certificates of limited partnership and limited partnership agreements, deeds of trust or other
similar organizational documents, as applicable, of each Loan Party and certain resolutions of the
board of directors, as applicable, of each Loan Party (collectively, the “Organizational
Documents”) and have also examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our
satisfaction, of such documents, corporate records, and other instruments, and made such other
investigations of law and fact, as we have deemed necessary or advisable for the purposes of
rendering this opinion. In our examination of documents, we assumed the genuineness of all signatures on documents presented to us as originals (other than the signatures of officers of
the Loan Parties) and the conformity to originals of documents presented to us as conformed or
reproduced copies.

 

O-1

 

Based upon the foregoing, and subject to all of the qualifications and assumptions set forth
herein, we are of the opinion that:

1. The Borrower (i) is duly organized as a corporation and is validly existing and in good
standing under the laws of the State of Maryland and (ii) has the power to execute, deliver and
perform the Loan Documents to which it is a party, to own and use its assets, and to conduct its
business as presently conducted and as proposed to be conducted immediately following the
consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Credit Agreement. The Borrower is qualified
to transact business as a foreign corporation in
 _____.

2. Each Guarantor (i) is duly organized as a [corporation] and is validly existing and in good
standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization and (ii) has the power to execute,
deliver and perform the Loan Documents to which it is a party, to own and use its assets, and to
conduct its business as presently conducted and as proposed to be conducted immediately following
the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Credit Agreement. Each Guarantor is
qualified to transact business as a foreign corporation in
 _____.]

3. Each Loan Party has duly authorized the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents to
which it is a party and all performance by each Loan Party thereunder. Each of the Loan Parties
has duly executed and delivered such Loan Documents.

4. The execution and delivery by each Loan Party of the Loan Documents to which it is a party
do not, and if such Loan Party were now to perform its obligations under such Loan Documents, such
performance would not, result in any:

(a) violation of such Loan Party’s respective Organizational Documents, as applicable;

(b) violation of any existing federal or state constitution, statute, regulation, rule, order,
or law to which such Loan Party or its assets are subject;

(c) breach or violation of or default under, any agreements, instruments, indentures or other
documents evidencing any indebtedness for money borrowed or any other material agreement to which,
to our knowledge, such Loan Party is bound or under which such Loan Party or its assets is subject;

(d) creation or imposition of a contractual lien or security interest in, on or against the
assets of such Loan Party under any material written agreements to which such Loan Party is a party
or by which such Loan Party or its assets are bound; or

(e) violation of any judicial or administrative decree, writ, judgment or order to which, to
our knowledge, such Loan Party or its assets are subject.

5. The execution, delivery and performance by each of the Loan Parties of each Loan Document
to which it is a party, and the consummation of the transactions thereunder, do not and will not
require any registration with, consent or approval of, or notice to, or other action to, with or by, any Governmental Authority of the United States of America, the State of
Maryland or the States of New York or
 _____.

 

O-2

 

6. The Loan Documents constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Loan Parties,
enforceable against the respective Loan Parties in accordance with their respective terms, except
that the foregoing opinion is subject to: (a) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
moratorium, arrangement or similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’
rights generally and (b) the fact that equitable remedies or relief (including, but not limited to,
the remedy of specific performance) are subject to the discretion of the court before which any
such remedies or relief may be sought.

7. To our knowledge, there are no judgments outstanding against any of the Loan Parties or
affecting any of their respective assets, nor is there any litigation or other proceeding against
any of the Loan Parties or its assets pending or overtly threatened.

8. None of the Loan Parties is, or, after giving effect to any Loan will be, subject to
regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940 or to any federal or state statute or
regulation limiting its ability to incur indebtedness for borrowed money.

10. Assuming that Borrower applies the proceeds of the Loans and as provided in the Credit
Agreement, the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents do not violate the provisions of
Regulations T, U or X of the Federal Reserve Board.

11. The consideration to be paid to the Lenders for the financial accommodations to be
provided to the Loan Parties pursuant to the Credit Agreement does not violate any law of the State
of New York relating to interest and usury.

Very truly yours,

e)  

	
Consultant shall restrict disclosure of Confidential Information to its own employees with a “need to know” (i.e., employees that require the Confidential Information to perform their responsibilities in connection with this Agreement) and not disclose it to any other person or entity without the prior written consent of the Company.  Consultant shall use Confidential Information only for purposes of performing under this Agreement, and shall advise those employees who access the Confidential Information of their obligations with respect thereto.  Further, Consultant shall copy Confidential Information only as necessary, and ensure that all confidentiality notices are reproduced in full on such copies.

 

	
f)  

	
The restrictions in subsection (d) of this Section shall not apply to any Confidential Information if Consultant can demonstrate that the Confidential Information: (i) is or becomes available to the public through no breach of this Agreement; (ii) was previously known by Consultant without any obligation to hold it in confidence; (iii) is received from a third party free to disclose such information without restriction; (iv) is approved for release by written authorization of the Company; (v) is required by law or regulation to be disclosed, but only to the extent and for the purposes of such required disclosure; or (vi) is disclosed in response to a valid order of a court or lawful request of a governmental agency, but only to the extent of and for the purposes of such order or request, provided that Consultant notifies the Company of the order or request ten days prior to disclosure and permits the Company to seek an appropriate protective order.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, information described in paragraph f) (i)-(iv) shall not be considered Confidential Information.

 

7) Non-Disparagement.  From the Effective Date, throughout the term of this Agreement, and for three (3) years thereafter, each party agrees not to make any statements, written or verbal, or cause or encourage others to make any statements, written or verbal, that defame, disparage or in any way criticize the personal or business reputation, practices, or conduct of the other, its employees, directors, and officers.  Each party acknowledges and agrees this prohibition extends to statements, written or verbal, made to anyone, including but not limited to, the news media, investors, potential investors, any board of directors or advisory board or directors, industry analysts, competitors, strategic partners, vendors, employees (past and present), and clients.

Each party agrees that if Section 5 (Services after Termination), Section 6 (Confidential Information), or Section 7 (Non-Disparagement) of this Agreement is breached by the other, the remedy at law may be inadequate and therefore an injunction, specific performance or other forms of equitable relief or money damages or any combination thereof shall be available.  To this extent, the parties agree any injunctive relief sought by the parties shall be brought in either a state or federal district court located in Dallas County, Texas.  All rights, powers and remedies provided for herein are cumulative, and not exclusive, of any and all rights, powers and remedies at law or in equity as may now or hereafter exist.
