account of the Company on the books of Bank of America with the amount of such funds;
provided, however, that if, on the date the Committed Loan Notice with respect to
such Borrowing is given by the Company, there are L/C Borrowings outstanding, then the proceeds of
such Borrowing, first, shall be applied to the payment in full of any such L/C Borrowings,
and second, shall be made available to the Company as provided above.

     (c) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Company and the Lenders of the interest
rate applicable to any Eurodollar Rate Loans upon determination of such interest rate. At any time
that Base Rate Loans are outstanding, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Company and the
Lenders of any change in Bank of America’s prime rate used in determining the Base Rate promptly
following the public announcement of such change.

     2.03 Letters of Credit.

     (a) The Letter of Credit Commitment.

     (i) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (A) each L/C Issuer agrees,
in reliance upon the agreements of the Lenders set forth in this Section 2.03, (1)
from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date until the
Letter of Credit Expiration Date, to issue Letters of Credit for the account of the Company
or its Subsidiaries, and to amend or extend Letters of Credit previously issued by it, in
accordance with subsection (b) below, and (2) to honor drawings under the Letters of Credit;
and (B) the Lenders severally agree to participate in Letters of Credit issued for the

such Lender’s Commitment, and (z) the Outstanding Amount of the L/C Obligations shall not
exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit. Each request by the Company for the issuance or

46

 

representation by the Company that the L/C Credit Extension so requested complies with
the conditions set forth in the proviso to the preceding sentence. Within the foregoing
limits, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Company’s ability to obtain
Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and accordingly the Company may, during the
foregoing period, obtain Letters of Credit to replace Letters of Credit that have expired or
that have been drawn upon and reimbursed. All Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to
have been issued pursuant hereto, and from and after the Closing Date shall be subject to
and governed by the terms and conditions hereof.

     (ii) No L/C Issuer shall issue any Letter of Credit, if:

     (A) subject to Section 2.03(b)(iii), the expiry date of such requested
Letter of Credit would occur more than twelve months after the date of issuance or
last extension, unless the Required Lenders have approved such expiry date; or

     (B) the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur after the
Letter of Credit Expiration Date, unless all the Lenders have approved such expiry
date.

     (iii) No L/C Issuer shall be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if:

     (A) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator
shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such L/C Issuer from issuing such
Letter of Credit, or any Law applicable to such L/C Issuer or any request or
directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority
with jurisdiction over such L/C Issuer shall prohibit, or request that the L/C
Issuer refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of
Credit in particular or shall impose upon such L/C Issuer with respect to such
Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such L/C
Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or
shall impose upon such L/C Issuer any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was
not applicable on the Closing Date and which such L/C Issuer in good faith deems
material to it;

     (B) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of
such L/C Issuer;

     (C) such Letter of Credit is to be denominated in a currency other than
Dollars;

     (D) such Letter of Credit contains any provisions for automatic reinstatement
of the stated amount after any drawing thereunder; or

     (E) any Lender is at such time a Defaulting Lender, unless (x) such L/C Issuer
has entered into arrangements, including the delivery of Cash Collateral,
satisfactory to such L/C Issuer (in its sole discretion) with the Company or such
Lender to eliminate such L/C Issuer’s actual or potential

47

 

Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender as to either the
Letter of Credit then proposed to be issued or (y) each L/C Issuer having actual or
potential Fronting Exposure with respect to issued Letters of Credit has entered
into arrangements satisfactory to each such L/C Issuer as to Letters of Credit
issued by it (in its sole discretion) with the Company or such Defaulting Lender to
eliminate such actual or potential risk.

     (iv) No L/C Issuer shall amend any Letter of Credit if such L/C Issuer would not be
permitted at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms
hereof.

     (v) No L/C Issuer shall be under any obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if (A)
such L/C Issuer would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its
amended form under the terms hereof, or (B) the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit does
not accept the proposed amendment to such Letter of Credit.

     (vi) Each L/C Issuer shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to any Letters of
Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and each L/C Issuer shall have
all of the benefits and immunities (A) provided to the Administrative Agent in Article
IX with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by such L/C Issuer in connection
with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and Issuer Documents
pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent” as used
in Article IX included each L/C Issuer with respect to such acts or omissions, and
(B) as additionally provided herein with respect to each L/C Issuer.

     (b) Procedures for Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit; Auto-Extension Letters of
Credit.

     (i) Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, upon the
request of the Company delivered to the applicable L/C Issuer (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent) in the form of a Letter of Credit Application, appropriately completed
and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Company. Such Letter of Credit Application must
be received by such L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. at
least ten Business Days (or such later date and time as the Administrative Agent and such
L/C Issuer may agree in a particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the
proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be. In the case of a request
for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall
specify in form and detail satisfactory to such L/C Issuer: (A) the proposed issuance date
of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (B) the amount thereof;
(C) the expiry date thereof; (D) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (E) the
documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (F) the
full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing
thereunder; and (G) such other matters as such L/C Issuer may require. In the case of a
request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit
Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to such L/C Issuer (A) the Letter
of Credit to be amended; (B) the proposed date of amendment

48

 

thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (C) the nature of the proposed amendment; and
(D) such other matters as such L/C Issuer may require. Additionally, the Company shall
furnish to such L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent such other documents and information
pertaining to such requested Letter of Credit issuance or amendment, including any Issuer
Documents, as such L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent may require.

     (ii) Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, the applicable L/C
Issuer will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the
Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application, in its final
form, from the Company and, if not, such L/C Issuer will provide the Administrative Agent
with a copy thereof. Unless the applicable L/C Issuer has received written notice from any
Lender, the Administrative Agent or any Loan Party, at least one Business Day prior to the
requested date of issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more
applicable conditions contained in Article IV shall not then be satisfied, then,
subject to the terms and conditions hereof, such L/C Issuer shall, on the requested date,
issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the Company (or the applicable Subsidiary) or
enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with
such L/C Issuer’s usual and customary business practices. Immediately upon the issuance of
each Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the applicable L/C Issuer a risk participation in
such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Applicable
Percentage times the amount of such Letter of Credit.

     (iii) If the Company so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the
applicable L/C Issuer may, in its sole and absolute discretion, agree to issue a Letter of
Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of
Credit”); provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit
such L/C Issuer to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period
(commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to
the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”) in
each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued.
Unless otherwise directed by the applicable L/C Issuer, the Company shall not be required
to make a specific request to such L/C Issuer for any such extension. Once an
Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have
authorized (but may not require) the applicable L/C Issuer to permit the extension of such
Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the Letter of Credit
Expiration Date; provided, however, that such L/C Issuer shall not permit
any such extension if (A) such L/C Issuer has determined that it would not be permitted, or
would have no obligation, at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form
(as extended) under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of clause (ii) or (iii) of
Section 2.03(a) or otherwise), or (B) it has received notice (which may be by
telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is ten Business Days before the
Non-Extension Notice Date (1) from the Administrative Agent that the Required Lenders have
elected not to permit such extension or (2) from the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the
Company that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.02 is
not then satisfied, and in each such case directing such L/C Issuer not to permit such
extension.

49

 

     (iv) Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter
of Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the
applicable L/C Issuer will also deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent a true
and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment.

     (c) Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations.

     (i) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a
drawing under such Letter of Credit, the applicable L/C Issuer shall notify the Company and
the Administrative Agent thereof. Not later than 11:00 a.m. on the date of any payment by
the applicable L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit (each such date, an “Honor
Date”), the Company shall reimburse such L/C Issuer through the Administrative Agent in
an amount equal to the amount of such drawing. If the Company fails to so reimburse such
L/C Issuer by such time, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the
Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (the “Unreimbursed Amount”), and
the amount of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof. In such event, the Company shall
be deemed to have requested a Committed Borrowing of Base Rate Loans to be disbursed on the
Honor Date in an amount equal to the Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to the minimum and
multiples specified in Section 2.02 for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but
subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Aggregate Commitments and the
conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (other than the delivery of a Committed Loan
Notice). Any notice given by the applicable L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent pursuant
to this Section 2.03(c)(i) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in
writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect
the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

     (ii) Each Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) make
funds available (including the application of available Cash Collateral and other credit
support provided for this purpose pursuant to Section 2.03(a)(iii)(E)) to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable L/C Issuer at the Administrative
Agent’s Office in an amount equal to its Applicable Percentage of the Unreimbursed Amount
not later than 2:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative
Agent, whereupon, subject to the provisions of Section 2.03(c)(iii), each Lender
that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Committed Loan to the
Company in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the
applicable L/C Issuer.

     (iii) With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a
Committed Borrowing of Base Rate Loans because the conditions set forth in Section
4.02 cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, the Company shall be deemed to have
incurred from the applicable L/C Issuer an L/C Borrowing in the amount of the Unreimbursed
Amount that is not so refinanced, which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand
(together with interest) and shall bear interest at the Default Rate. In such event, each
Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable L/C Issuer
pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(ii) shall be deemed payment in respect of its
participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such Lender in
satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.03.

50

 

     (iv) Until each Lender funds its Committed Loan or L/C Advance pursuant to this
Section 2.03(c) to reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer for any amount drawn under
any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such
amount shall be solely for the account of the applicable L/C Issuer.

     (v) Each Lender’s obligation to make Committed Loans or L/C Advances to reimburse the
applicable L/C Issuer for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this
Section 2.03(c), shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by
any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right
which such Lender may have against the applicable L/C Issuer, the Company or any other
Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any
other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing;
provided, however, that each Lender’s obligation to make Committed Loans
pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in
Section 4.02 (other than delivery by the Company of a Committed Loan Notice). No
such making of an L/C Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the
Company to reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer for the amount of any payment made by such
L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein.

     (vi) If any Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account
of the applicable L/C Issuer any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the
foregoing provisions of this Section 2.03(c) by the time specified in Section
2.03(c)(ii), then, without limiting other provisions of this Agreement, such L/C Issuer
shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on
demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is
required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to such L/C Issuer at a
rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by such
L/C Issuer in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. A
certificate of the applicable L/C Issuer submitted to any Lender (through the Administrative
Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (vi) shall be conclusive absent
manifest error.

     (d) Repayment of Participations.

     (i) At any time after the applicable L/C Issuer has made a payment under any Letter of
Credit and has received from any Lender such Lender’s L/C Advance in respect of such payment
in accordance with Section 2.03(c), if the Administrative Agent receives for the
account of such L/C Issuer any payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed Amount or
interest thereon (whether directly from the Company or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash
Collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent will
distribute to such Lender its Applicable Percentage thereof (appropriately adjusted, in the
case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender’s L/C
Advance was outstanding) in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent.

     (ii) If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the
applicable L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) is required to be returned
under

51

 

any of the circumstances described in Section 10.05 (including pursuant to any
settlement entered into by such L/C Issuer in its discretion), each Lender shall pay to the
Administrative Agent for the account of such L/C Issuer its Applicable Percentage thereof on
demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to
the date such amount is returned by such Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal
Funds Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders under this clause
shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

     (e) Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the Company to reimburse the applicable
L/C Issuer for each drawing under each Letter of Credit and to repay each L/C Borrowing shall be
absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following:

     (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or
any other Loan Document;

     (ii) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, setoff, defense or other right that the
Company or any Subsidiary may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of
such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee
may be acting), the applicable L/C Issuer or any other Person, whether in connection with
this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any
agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction;

     (iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such Letter of
Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any
statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the
transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such
Letter of Credit;

     (iv) any payment by the applicable L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit against
presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such
Letter of Credit; or any payment made by such L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit to any
Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the
benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any
beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection
with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law; or

     (v) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of
the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense
available to, or a discharge of, the Company or any Subsidiary.

     The Company shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto
that is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with the Company’s
instructions or other irregularity, the Company will immediately notify the applicable L/C Issuer.
The Company shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such

52

 

claim against the applicable L/C Issuer and its correspondents unless such notice is given as
aforesaid.

     (f) Role of L/C Issuer. Each Lender and the Company agree that, in paying any drawing
under a Letter of Credit, the applicable L/C Issuer shall not have any responsibility to obtain any
document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter
of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the
authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the applicable L/C
Issuer, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent,
participant or assignee of such L/C Issuer shall be liable to any Lender for (i) any action taken
or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Lenders or the
Required Lenders, as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross
negligence or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or
enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Issuer Document.
The Company hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with
respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption
is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Company’s pursuing such rights and remedies as it
may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. None of the
applicable L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any
correspondent, participant or assignee of such L/C Issuer shall be liable or responsible for any of
the matters described in clauses (i) through (v) of Section 2.03(e); provided,
however, that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company may
have a claim against such L/C Issuer, and such L/C Issuer may be liable to the Company, to the
extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages
suffered by the Company which the Company proves were caused by such L/C Issuer’s willful
misconduct or gross negligence or such L/C Issuer’s willful failure to pay under any Letter of
Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly
complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in
limitation of the foregoing, the applicable L/C Issuer may accept documents that appear on their
face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or
information to the contrary, and such L/C Issuer shall not be responsible for the validity or
sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a
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.

     (g) Applicability of ISP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the applicable L/C
Issuer and the Company when a Letter of Credit is issued (including any such agreement applicable
to an Existing Letter of Credit), the rules of the ISP shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit

     (h) Letter of Credit Fees. The Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the
account of each Lender in accordance with its Applicable Percentage a Letter of Credit fee (the
“Letter of Credit Fee”) for each Letter of Credit equal to the Applicable Rate
times the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit; provided,
however, any Letter of Credit Fees otherwise payable for the account of a Defaulting Lender with
respect to any Letter of Credit as to which such Defaulting Lender has not provided Cash Collateral
or other credit support arrangements satisfactory to the applicable L/C Issuer pursuant to this
Section 2.03 shall

53

 

be payable, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, to the other Lenders in
accordance with the upward adjustments in their respective Applicable Percentages allocable to such
Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.16(a)(iv), with the balance of such fee, if any,
payable to such L/C Issuer for its own account. For purposes of computing the daily amount
available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be
determined in accordance with Section 1.06. Letter of Credit Fees shall be (i) computed on
a quarterly basis in arrears, (ii) due and payable on the Automatic Debit Date after the end of
each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the
issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand
and (iii) automatically debited from a deposit account maintained by the Company with Bank of
America (provided that if there are not sufficient funds in such account to pay such Letter of
Credit Fees, then the Company shall pay such fees in cash when due). If there is any change in the
Applicable Rate during any quarter, the daily amount available to be drawn under each Letter of
Credit shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each period during
such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, upon the request of the Required Lenders, while any Event of Default exists, all
Letter of Credit Fees shall accrue at the Default Rate.

     (i) Fronting Fee and Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to L/C Issuer. The
Company shall pay directly to the applicable L/C Issuer for its own account a fronting fee with
respect to each Letter of Credit, at the rate per annum specified (in the case of Bank of America)
in the Bank of America Letter and (in the case of Wells Fargo) in the Wells Fargo Letter, in each
case computed on the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit and on a
quarterly basis in arrears. Such fronting fee shall be (i) due and payable on the Automatic Debit
Date after the end of each March, June, September and December in respect of the most
recently-ended quarterly period (or portion thereof, in the case of the first payment), commencing
with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of
Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand, (ii) in the case of fronting fees owing to Bank of
America, may be automatically debited from a deposit account maintained by the Company with Bank of
America (provided that if there are not sufficient funds in such account to pay such fronting fees,
then the Company shall pay such fees in cash when due), (iii) in the case of fronting fees owing to
Wells Fargo, shall be separately invoiced by Wells Fargo. For purposes of computing the daily
amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall
be determined in accordance with Section 1.07. In addition, the Company shall pay directly
to each L/C Issuer for its own account the customary issuance, presentation, amendment and other
processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of such L/C Issuer relating to letters of
credit as from time to time in effect. Such customary fees and standard costs and charges are due
and payable on demand and are nonrefundable.

     (j) Conflict with Issuer Documents. In the event of any conflict between the terms
hereof and the terms of any Issuer Document, the terms hereof shall control.

     (k) Letters of Credit Issued for Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding that a Letter of
Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account
of, a Subsidiary, the Company shall be obligated to reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer hereunder
for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit. The Company hereby acknowledges that the

54

 

issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of the
Company, and that the Company’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such
Subsidiaries.

     (l) Letters of Credit Reports. For so long as any Letter of Credit issued by an L/C
Issuer is outstanding, such L/C Issuer shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a report in the
form of Exhibit M hereto (appropriately completed with the information for every
outstanding Letter of Credit issued by such L/C Issuer) on the last Business Day of each calendar
month, on each date that an L/C Credit Extension occurs with respect to any such Letter of Credit,
and on each date there is a change to the information set forth on such report. The Administrative
Agent shall deliver to the Lenders on a monthly basis a report of all outstanding Letters of
Credit.

     2.04 Swing Line Loans.

     (a) The Swing Line. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and in any
Autoborrow Agreement, if any, the Swing Line Lender may, in its sole discretion and in reliance
upon the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this Section 2.04, make loans (each
such loan, a “Swing Line Loan”) to the Company from time to time on any Business Day during
the Availability Period in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount of
the Swing Line Sublimit, notwithstanding the fact that such Swing Line Loans, when aggregated with
the Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of Committed Loans and L/C Obligations of the
Lender acting as Swing Line Lender, may exceed the amount of such Lender’s Commitment;
provided, however, that after giving effect to any Swing Line Loan, (i) the Total
Outstandings shall not exceed the Aggregate Commitments, (ii) the Total Outstandings shall not
exceed the Revolving Advance Limit and (iii) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Committed
Loans of any Lender, plus such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of
all L/C Obligations, plus such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of
all Swing Line Loans shall not exceed such Lender’s Commitment, and provided,
further, that the Company shall not use the proceeds of any Swing Line Loan to refinance
any outstanding Swing Line Loan. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the other terms and
conditions hereof, the Company, may borrow under this Section 2.04, prepay under
Section 2.05, and reborrow under this Section 2.04. Each Swing Line Loan may be a
Base Rate Loan or a Eurodollar Rate Loan. Immediately upon the making of a Swing Line Loan, each
Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the
Swing Line Lender a risk participation in such Swing Line Loan in an amount equal to the product of
such Lender’s Applicable Percentage times the amount of such Swing Line Loan.

     (b) Borrowing Procedures. At any time an Autoborrow Agreement is not in effect, each
Swing Line Borrowing and each conversion of Swing Line Loans from one type to the other shall be
made upon the Company’s irrevocable notice to the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent,
which may be given by telephone. Each such notice must be received by the Swing Line Lender and the
Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. on the requested borrowing date or date of conversion
of Eurodollar Rate Loans to Base Rate Loans or of any conversion of Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar
Rate Loans, and in each case shall specify (i) the amount to be borrowed, (ii) the requested
borrowing date, which shall be a Business Day and (iii) the Type of Swing Line Loan to be borrowed
or to which existing Swing Line Loans are to be converted. Each such telephonic notice must be
confirmed promptly by delivery to the Swing

55

 

Line Lender and the Administrative Agent of a written Swing Line Loan Notice, appropriately
completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Company. Promptly after receipt by the Swing
Line Lender of any telephonic Swing Line Loan Notice, the Swing Line Lender will confirm with the
Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has also received
such Swing Line Loan Notice and, if not, the Swing Line Lender will notify the Administrative Agent
(by telephone or in writing) of the contents thereof. Unless the Swing Line Lender has received
notice (by telephone or in writing) from the Administrative Agent (including at the request of any
Lender) prior to 2:00 p.m. on the date of the proposed Swing Line Borrowing (A) directing the Swing
Line Lender not to make such Swing Line Loan as a result of the limitations set forth in the
proviso to the first sentence of Section 2.04(a), or (B) that one or more of the applicable
conditions specified in Article IV is not then satisfied, then, subject to the terms and
conditions hereof, the Swing Line Lender will, not later than 3:00 p.m. on the borrowing date
specified in such Swing Line Loan Notice, make the amount of its Swing Line Loan available to the
Company at its office by crediting the account of the Company on the books of the Swing Line Lender
in immediately available funds. If the Company fails to provide a timely Swing Line Loan Notice
requesting a conversion of Eurodollar Rate Loans to Base Rate Loans, such Loans shall, subject to
Article III, continue as Eurodollar Rate Loans. If the Company fails to specify a Type of
Swing Line Loan in a Swing Line Loan Notice, then the applicable Swing Line Loan shall, subject to
Article III, be made as a Eurodollar Rate Loan.

     In order to facilitate the borrowing of Swing Line Loans, the Swing Line Lender may, in its
sole discretion, agree with the Company to, (and the Swing Line Lender and the Company are hereby
authorized to) enter into an Autoborrow Agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent and the Swing Line Lender (the “Autoborrow Agreement”) providing for
the automatic advance by the Swing Line Lender of Swing Line Loans under the conditions set forth
in such agreement, which shall be in addition to the conditions set forth herein (each such
advance, an “Autoborrow Advance”); provided that, (i) in no event shall the Company
be entitled to Autoborrow Advances pursuant to an Autoborrow Agreement at any time an autoborrow
arrangement is in effect under the Used Vehicle Floorplan Facility (any such arrangement, a
“Used Vehicle Autoborrow Arrangement”) and (ii) subject to the Administrative Agent’s
consent, the Company may, upon 30 days advance notice to the Administrative Agent and the Swing
Line Lender, alternate between the autoborrow arrangement described herein and a Used Vehicle
Autoborrow Arrangement no more frequently than once in any calendar year. At any time such an
Autoborrow Agreement is in effect, the requirements for Swing Line Borrowings set forth in the
immediately preceding paragraph shall not apply, and all Swing Line Borrowings shall be made in
accordance with the Autoborrow Agreement, until the right to such Swing Line Borrowings is
suspended or terminated hereunder or in accordance with the terms of the Autoborrow Agreement. For
purposes of determining the Outstanding Amount at any time during which an Autoborrow Agreement is
in effect, the Outstanding Amount of all Swing Line Loans shall be deemed to be the amount of the
Swing Line Sublimit. For purposes of any Swing Line Borrowing pursuant to the Autoborrow
Agreement, all references to Bank of America shall be deemed to be a reference to Bank of America,
in its capacity as Swing Line Lender hereunder.

     (c) Refinancing of Swing Line Loans.

     (i) The Swing Line Lender at any time in its sole discretion may request, on behalf of
the Company (which hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swing Line Lender to so

56

 

request on its behalf), that each Lender make a Eurodollar Rate Committed Loan in an
amount equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the amount of Swing Line Loans then
outstanding. Such request shall be made in writing (which written request shall be deemed
to be a Committed Loan Notice for purposes hereof) and in accordance with the requirements
of Section 2.02, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified therein for
the principal amount of Eurodollar Rate Loans, but subject to the unutilized portion of the
Aggregate Commitments and the conditions set forth in Section 4.02. The Swing Line
Lender shall furnish the Company with a copy of the applicable Committed Loan Notice
promptly after delivering such notice to the Administrative Agent. Each Lender shall make
an amount equal to its Applicable Percentage of the amount specified in such Committed Loan
Notice available (including for this purpose Cash Collateral and other credit support made
available with respect to the applicable Swing Line Loan) to the Administrative Agent in
immediately available funds for the account of the Swing Line Lender at the Administrative
Agent’s Office not later than 1:00 p.m. on the day specified in such Committed Loan Notice,
whereupon, subject to Section 2.04(c)(ii), each Lender that so makes funds available
shall be deemed to have made a Eurodollar Rate Committed Loan to the Company in such amount.
The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the Swing Line Lender.

     (ii) If for any reason any Swing Line Loan cannot be refinanced by such a Committed
Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.04(c)(i), the request for Eurodollar Rate
Committed Loans submitted by the Swing Line Lender as set forth herein shall be deemed to be
a request by the Swing Line Lender that each of the Lenders fund its risk participation in
the relevant Swing Line Loan and each Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the
account of the Swing Line Lender pursuant to Section 2.04(c)(i) shall be deemed
payment in respect of such participation.

     (iii) If any Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account
of the Swing Line Lender any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the
foregoing provisions of this Section 2.04(c) by the time specified in Section
2.04(c)(i), the Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting
through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the
period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is
immediately available to the Swing Line Lender at a rate per annum equal to the greater of
the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Swing Line Lender in accordance with
banking industry rules on interbank compensation. A certificate of the Swing Line Lender
submitted to any Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing
under this clause (iii) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

     (iv) Each Lender’s obligation to make Committed Loans or to purchase and fund risk
participations in Swing Line Loans pursuant to this Section 2.04(c) shall be
absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any
setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against
the Swing Line Lender, the Company or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the
occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition,
whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however,

57

 

that each Lender’s obligation to make Committed Loans pursuant to this Section
2.04(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.02. No such funding
of risk participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Company to
repay Swing Line Loans, together with interest as provided herein.

     (d) Repayment of Participations.

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

     (ii) If any payment received by the Swing Line Lender in respect of principal or
interest on any Swing Line Loan is required to be returned by the Swing Line Lender under
any of the circumstances described in Section 10.05 (including pursuant to any
settlement entered into by the Swing Line Lender in its discretion), each Lender shall pay
to the Swing Line Lender its Applicable Percentage thereof on demand of the Administrative
Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is
returned, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate. The Administrative Agent
will make such demand upon the request of the Swing Line Lender. The obligations of the
Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the
termination of this Agreement.

     (e) Interest for Account of Swing Line Lender. The Swing Line Lender shall be
responsible for invoicing the Company for interest on the Swing Line Loans. Until each Lender
funds its Eurodollar Rate Committed Loan or risk participation pursuant to this Section
2.04 to refinance such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of any Swing Line Loan, interest in
respect of such Applicable Percentage shall be solely for the account of the Swing Line Lender.

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

     2.05 Prepayments.

     (a) The Company may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, at any time or from time to time
voluntarily prepay Committed Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided
that (i) such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. on the
date of prepayment of such Loans; (ii) any prepayment of Loans shall be in a principal amount of
$500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof or, in each case, if less, the entire
principal amount thereof then outstanding. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of
such prepayment and the Type(s) of Loans to be prepaid. The Administrative Agent will promptly
notify each applicable Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such
Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such prepayment. If such notice is given by the Company, the
Company shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and
payable on the date specified therein. Subject

58

 

to Section 2.16, each such prepayment of Committed Loans of the Lenders shall be
applied in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages.

     (b) At any time during which an Autoborrow Agreement is not in effect, the Company may, upon
notice to the Swing Line Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at any time or from time
to time, voluntarily prepay Swing Line Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty;
provided that (i) such notice must be received by the Swing Line Lender and the
Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. on the date of the prepayment, and (ii) any such
prepayment shall be in a minimum principal amount of $100,000. Each such notice shall specify the
date and amount of such prepayment. If such notice is given by the Company, the Company shall make
such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the
date specified therein.

     (c) If for any reason the Total Outstandings at any time exceed the Revolving Advance Limit
then in effect (including the Revolving Borrowing Base in effect after giving pro forma effect to
any Disposition required to be reported pursuant to Sections 6.02(c) and 6.03(g)),
the Company shall immediately prepay Loans and/or Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations in an
aggregate amount equal to such excess; provided, however, that the Company shall
not be required to Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations pursuant to this Section 2.05(c)
unless after the prepayment in full of the Loans the Total Outstandings exceed the Revolving
Advance Limit then in effect.

     (d) If for any reason the aggregate Outstanding Amount of Swing Line Loans exceeds the Swing
Line Sublimit, the Company shall immediately prepay Swing Line Loans in an aggregate amount at
least equal to such excess.

     2.06 Termination or Reduction of Commitments. The Company may, upon notice to the
Administrative Agent, terminate the Aggregate Commitments, or from time to time permanently reduce
the Aggregate Commitments; provided that (i) any such notice shall be received by the
Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. five (5) Business Days prior to the date of
termination or reduction, (ii) any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of
$10,000,000 or any whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, (iii) the Company shall not
terminate or reduce the Aggregate Commitments if, after giving effect thereto and to any concurrent
prepayments hereunder, the Total Outstandings would exceed the Revolving Advance Limit and (iv) if,
after giving effect to any reduction of the Aggregate Commitments, the Letter of Credit Sublimit or
the Swing Line Sublimit exceeds the amount of the Aggregate Commitments, such Sublimit shall be
automatically reduced by the amount of such excess. The Administrative Agent will promptly
notify the applicable Lenders of any such notice of termination or reduction of the Aggregate
Commitments. Any reduction of the Aggregate Commitments shall be applied to the Commitment of each
Lender in accordance with (x) its respective Applicable Percentage. All fees and interest accrued
until the effective date of any termination of the Aggregate Commitments shall be paid on the
effective date of such termination.

59

 

     2.07 Repayment of Loans.

     (a) The Company shall repay to the Lenders on the Maturity Date the aggregate principal amount
of Committed Loans outstanding on such date.

     (b) The Company shall repay each Swing Line Loan (i) at any time on demand by the Swing Line
Lender and (ii) on the Maturity Date.

     2.08 Interest.

     (a) Subject to the provisions of subsection (b) below, (i) each Eurodollar Rate Loan shall
bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a
rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate plus the Applicable Rate; and (ii) each Base
Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable
borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate.

     (b) (i) If any amount of principal of any Loan is not paid when due (without regard to
any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise,
such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all
times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.

     (ii) If any amount (other than principal of any Loan) payable by the Company under any
Loan Document is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), whether
at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, then upon the request of the Required
Lenders, such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum
at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.

     (iii) Upon the request of the Required Lenders, while any Event of Default exists, the
Company shall pay interest on the principal amount of all outstanding Obligations hereunder
at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.

     (iv) Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due
interest) shall be due and payable upon demand.

     (c) Interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date
applicable thereto and at such other times as may be specified herein. Interest hereunder shall be
due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after
the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law.

     2.09 Fees. In addition to certain fees described in subsections (i) and (j) of Section
2.03:

     (a) Commitment Fees. The Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the
account of each Lender in accordance with its Applicable Percentage, a commitment fee equal to

60

 

the Applicable Rate times the actual daily amount by which the Aggregate Commitments
exceed the sum of (i) the Outstanding Amount of Committed Loans and (ii) the Outstanding Amount of
L/C Obligations, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2.16. The commitment fees
shall accrue at all times during the Availability Period, including at any time during which one or
more of the conditions in Article IV is not met, and shall be due and payable quarterly in
arrears on the Automatic Debit Date after the end of each March, June, September and December,
commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the Maturity Date. The
commitment fees shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, and if there is any change in the
respective Applicable Rate during any quarter, the actual daily amount shall be computed and
multiplied by such Applicable Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such
Applicable Rate was in effect. Swing Line Loans shall not be included in calculating the
Outstanding Amount of Committed Loans used in determining the commitment fees set forth above.

(b) Other Fees. (i) The Company shall pay to the Arranger and the
Administrative Agent for their own respective accounts fees in the amounts and at the times
specified in the Bank of America Letter. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and
shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever.

     (ii) The Company shall pay to the Lenders such fees as shall have been separately agreed
upon in writing in the amounts and at the times so specified. Such fees shall be fully
earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever.

     2.10 Computation of Interest and Fees; Retroactive Adjustments of Applicable Rate.

     (a) All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans (including Base Rate Loans determined by
reference to the Eurodollar Rate) shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the
case may be, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on
the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as
applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year). Interest shall accrue on
each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion
thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid, provided that any Loan that
is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.12(a), bear
interest for one day. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee
hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

     (b) If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the financial statements of
the Company or for any other reason, the Company or the Lenders determine that (i)(A) the
Consolidated Total Debt to EBITDA Ratio as calculated by the Company as of any applicable date was
inaccurate and (B) a proper calculation of the Consolidated Total Debt to EBITDA Ratio would have
resulted in higher pricing for such period, the Company shall immediately and retroactively be
obligated to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders or the
applicable L/C Issuer, as the case may be, promptly on demand by the Administrative Agent (or,
after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the
Company under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, automatically and without further action by
the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any L/C Issuer), an amount

61

 

equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such
period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period; and (ii)(A) the
Consolidated Total Debt to EBITDA Ratio as calculated by the Company as of any applicable date was
inaccurate and (B) a proper calculation of the Consolidated Total Debt to EBITDA Ratio would have
resulted in lower pricing for such period, the Applicable Rate shall be adjusted as of the date of
receipt by the Administrative Agent of a Compliance Certificate reflecting such proper calculation.
This paragraph shall not limit the rights of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any L/C
Issuer, as the case may be, under Section 2.03(c)(iii) or 2.03(i) or under
Article VIII. The Company’s obligations under this paragraph shall survive the termination
of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment of all other Obligations hereunder.

     2.11 Evidence of Debt.

     (a) The Credit Extensions made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or
records maintained by such Lender and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of
business. The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be
conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Credit Extensions made by the Lenders to the
Company and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so
shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Company hereunder to pay any
amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts
and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in
respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the
absence of manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent,
the Company shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative Agent) a Note,
which shall evidence such Lender’s Loans in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender may
attach schedules to its Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount and
maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto.

     (b) In addition to the accounts and records referred to in subsection (a), each Lender and the
Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records
evidencing the purchases and sales by such Lender of participations in Letters of Credit and Swing
Line Loans. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by the
Administrative Agent and the accounts and records of any Lender in respect of such matters, the
accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.

     2.12 Payments Generally; Administrative Agent’s Clawback.

     (a) General. All payments to be made by the Company shall be made without condition
or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly
provided herein, all payments by the Company hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent,
for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the Administrative
Agent’s Office in Dollars and in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date
specified herein. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Applicable
Percentage, (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as
received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All

62

 

payments received by the Administrative Agent after 2:00 p.m. shall be deemed received on the
next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. If any
payment to be made by the Company shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall
be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in
computing interest or fees, as the case may be.

(b) (i) Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Administrative Agent. Unless
the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to 12:00 noon
on the date of any Committed Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the
Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Committed Borrowing, the
Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such
date in accordance with Section 2.02 and may (but shall be under no obligation
to), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Company a corresponding
amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable
Committed Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender
and the Company jointly and severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent
forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in immediately available funds with
interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made
available to the Company but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent,
at (A) 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 (B) in the case of a payment to be made by
the Company, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. If the Company and such
Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an
overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Company the
amount of such interest paid by the Company for such period. If such Lender pays its
share of the applicable Committed Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the
amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Committed
Borrowing. Any payment by the Company shall be without prejudice to any claim the
Company may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the
Administrative Agent.

     (ii) Payments by Company; Presumptions by Administrative Agent. Unless the
Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Company prior to the date on which
any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or any L/C
Issuer hereunder that the Company will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may
assume that the Company has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may
(but shall be under no obligation to), in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the
Lenders or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the
Company has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the applicable L/C
Issuer, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith
on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or such L/C Issuer, in immediately
available funds 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.

63

 

     A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the Company with respect to any amount
owing under this subsection (b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

     (c) Failure to Satisfy Conditions Precedent. If any Lender makes available to the
Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender to the Company as provided in the
foregoing provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available to the
Company by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable Credit Extension set
forth in Article IV are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the
Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such
Lender, without interest.

     (d) Obligations of Lenders Several. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make
Committed Loans, to fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans and to make
payments pursuant to Section 10.04(c) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender
to make any Committed Loan, to fund any such participation or to make any payment under Section
10.04(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding
obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other
Lender to so make its Committed Loan, to purchase its participation or to make its payment under
Section 10.04(c).

     (e) Funding Source. Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain
the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any
Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or
manner.

     2.13 Sharing of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff
or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of
the Committed Loans made by it, or the participations in L/C Obligations or Swing Line Loans held
by it resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of such
Committed Loans or participations and accrued interest thereon greater than its pro
rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion
shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase from the other applicable
Lenders (for cash at face value) participations in the applicable Committed Loans and
subparticipations in L/C Obligations or Swing Line Loans of the other Lenders, or make such other
adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the
Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on
their respective Committed Loans and other amounts owing them, provided that:

     (i) if any such participations or subparticipations are purchased and all or any
portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations or
subparticipations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such
recovery, without interest; and

     (ii) the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment
made by or on behalf of the Company pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of
this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a
Defaulting Lender), (y) the application of Cash Collateral in respect of

64

 

obligations relating to Letters of Credit or Swing Line Loans provided for in Section
2.15, or (z) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale
of a participation in any of its Committed Loans or subparticipations in L/C Obligations or
Swing Line Loans, as the case may be to any assignee or participant, other than an
assignment, participation or subparticipation to the Company or any Subsidiary thereof (as
to which the provisions of this Section shall apply).

     The Company consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under
applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements
may exercise against the Company rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such
participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Company in the amount of
such participation.

     2.14 Increase in Commitments.

     (a) Request for Increase. Provided there exists no Default nor any Floorplan Default,
upon notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders), the Company may
from time to time, request an increase in the Aggregate Commitments by an amount (i) for all such
requests, not exceeding $65,000,000 in the aggregate; provided that the Company may make a
maximum of five (5) such requests. At the time of sending such notice, the Company (in
consultation with the Administrative Agent) shall specify the time period within which each Lender
is requested to respond (which shall in no event be less than ten Business Days from the date of
delivery of such notice to the Lenders).

     (b) Lender Elections to Increase. Each Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent
within such time period whether or not it agrees to increase its respective Commitment and, if so,
whether by an amount equal to, greater than, or less than its Applicable Percentage of such
requested increase. Any Lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have
declined to increase its Commitment.

     (c) Notification by Administrative Agent; Additional Lenders. The Administrative
Agent shall notify the Company and each Lender of the Lenders’ responses to each request made
hereunder. To achieve the full amount of a requested increase and subject to the approval of the
Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuers (which approvals shall not be unreasonably withheld), the
Company may also invite additional Eligible Assignees to become Lenders pursuant to a joinder
agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and its counsel.

     (d) Effective Date and Allocations. If the Aggregate Commitments are increased in
accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent and the Company shall determine the
effective date (the “Increase Effective Date”) and the final allocation of such increase.
The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Company and the Lenders of the final allocation
of such increase and the Increase Effective Date.

     (e) Conditions to Effectiveness of Increase. As a condition precedent to such
increase, the Company shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of each Loan Party
dated as of the Increase Effective Date (in sufficient copies for each Lender) signed by a

65

 

Responsible Officer of such Loan Party (i) certifying and attaching the resolutions
adopted by such Loan Party approving or consenting to such increase, and (ii) in the case of
the Company, certifying that, before and after giving effect to such increase, (A) the
representations and warranties contained in Article V and the other Loan Documents
are true and correct on and as of the Increase Effective Date, except to the extent that
such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case
they are true and correct as of such earlier date, and except that for purposes of this
Section 2.14, the representations and warranties contained in subsections (a) and
(b) of Section 5.05 shall be deemed to refer to the most recent statements furnished
pursuant to clauses (a) and (b), respectively, of Section 6.01, (B) no Default
exists and (C) no Floorplan Default exists. The Company shall prepay any Committed Loans
outstanding on the Increase Effective Date (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant
to Section 3.05) to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Committed Loans
ratable with any revised Applicable Percentages arising from any nonratable increase in the
Commitments under this Section.

     (f) Conflicting Provisions. This Section shall supersede any provisions in
Sections 2.13 or 10.01 to the contrary.

     2.15 Cash Collateral and Other Credit Support.

     (a) Certain Credit Support Events. Upon the request of the Administrative Agent, (i)
if an L/C Issuer has honored any full or partial drawing request under any Letter of Credit and
such drawing has resulted in an L/C Borrowing, or (ii) if, as of the Letter of Credit Expiration
Date, any L/C Obligation for any reason remains outstanding, the Company shall, in each case,
immediately Cash Collateralize the then Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations.

     (b) Grant of Security Interest. All Cash Collateral (other than credit support not
constituting funds subject to deposit) shall be maintained in blocked, non-interest bearing deposit
accounts at Bank of America. The Company, and to the extent provided by any Lender, such Lender,
hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the L/C
Issuer and the Lenders (including the Swing Line Lender), a security interest in all such cash,
deposit accounts and all balances therein, and all other property so provided as collateral
pursuant hereto, and in all proceeds of the foregoing. 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 as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less
than that required to eliminate the applicable Fronting Exposure, the Company or the relevant
Defaulting Lender will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the
Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate the applicable
Fronting Exposure.

     (c) Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under any of this Section 2.15 or Sections
2.03, 2.04, 2.05 or 8.02 in respect of Letters of Credit or Swing Line
Loans shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of the specific L/C Obligations, Swing Line
Loans or obligations to fund participations therein (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a
Defaulting Lender, interest accrued on such obligation) for which the Cash Collateral or other
credit support was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may be provided
for herein.

66

 

     (d) Release. Cash Collateral provided pursuant to any of the Sections referred to in
Section 2.15(c) shall be released (except (i) as may be agreed to among the parties
posting, and the applicable L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender benefitting from, such Cash Collateral
and (ii) Cash Collateral provided by or on behalf of a Loan Party shall not be released during the
continuance of a Default or Event of Default) promptly following the payment, satisfaction or (as
to Letters of Credit) expiration of the obligations giving rise to delivery of such Cash
Collateral, or, as to Cash Collateral provided pursuant to Sections 2.03 or 2.04,
such earlier date as (A) the status of the applicable Lender as a Defaulting Lender shall be
terminated or (B) the Administrative Agent shall determine in good faith that there remain
outstanding no actual or potential Defaulting Lender funding obligations as to which the benefitted
L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender desires to maintain Cash Collateral.

     2.16 Defaulting Lenders. (a) Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as
such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Law:

          (i) 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 Section 10.01.

          (ii) Reallocation of Payments. 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 VIII or otherwise,
and including any amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by such Defaulting
Lender pursuant to Section 10.08), shall be applied by the Administrative Agent as
follows; first, as to any payment made in respect of principal of Loans, ratably to the
principal amount of Committed Loans of other Lenders as if such Defaulting Lender had no
Loans outstanding, until such time as the Outstanding Amount of Committed Loans of each
Lender shall equal its pro rata share thereof based on its Applicable Percentage (without
giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iv)); second, to any amounts (including interest
thereon) owed hereunder by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent; third, to any
amounts (including interest thereon) owed hereunder by such Defaulting Lender to an L/C
Issuer or Swing Line Lender (to the extent the Administrative Agent has received notice
thereof), ratably to the Persons entitled thereto, fourth, to the posting of Cash Collateral
(or funding of participations, as applicable) in respect of its Applicable Percentage
(without giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iv)) of L/C Obligations and Swing Line
Loans, (x) ratably to all L/C Issuers and the Swing Line Lender in accordance with their
respective applicable Fronting Exposures and (y) thereafter, to reduce ratably any
reallocation of Applicable Percentages of other Lenders previously effected under
Section 2.16(a)(iv); and fifth, to the Defaulting Lender or otherwise as required by
applicable Law. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting
Lender that are applied to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash
Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.16(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and
redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

67

 

          (iii) Certain Fees. Such Defaulting Lender (i) shall not be entitled to
receive any commitment fee pursuant to Section 2.09(a) for any period during which
such Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Company shall not be required to pay any such
fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to such Defaulting Lender).

          (iv) Reallocation of Applicable Percentages to Reduce Fronting Exposure.
During any period in which there is a Defaulting Lender as to which an L/C Issuer or Swing
Line Lender (as applicable) has not received Cash Collateral pursuant to Section
2.03 or 2.04, then upon the request of an L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender (as
applicable) to the Administrative Agent, for purposes of computing the amount of the
obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in
Letters of Credit or Swing Line Loans pursuant to Sections 2.04 and 2.05,
the “Applicable Percentage” of each non-Defaulting Lender shall be computed without giving
effect to the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender; provided, that, (i) each such
reallocation shall be given effect only if, at the initial date thereof, no Default or Event
of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and (ii) in all cases, the obligation of
each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit
or Swing Line Loans shall not exceed the positive difference, if any, between (1) the
Commitment of such non-Defaulting Lender and (2) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the
Committed Loans of such Lender, plus such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the
Outstanding Amount of all other L/C Obligations (prior to giving effect to such
reallocation), plus such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of
all other Swing Line Loans (prior to giving effect to such reallocation).

     (b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Company, the Administrative Agent, Swing Line
Lender and the L/C Issuers agree in writing in their reasonable discretion that a Defaulting Lender
should no longer be deemed to be 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),
such Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase such 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 Committed Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing
Line Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Applicable
Percentages (without giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iv)), whereupon such Lender will
cease to be a Defaulting Lender (and the Applicable Percentages of each Lender will automatically
be adjusted on a prospective basis to reflect the foregoing); provided that no adjustments will be
made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Company
while such 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
Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such
Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

Obligations, the Company shall, and shall cause all other Loan Parties to, on or before the Closing
Date, do or cause to be done all things reasonably necessary in the opinion of the Administrative
Agent and its counsel to grant to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties a
duly perfected security interest in all Collateral subject to no prior Lien or other encumbrance
except as expressly permitted hereunder or under the other Loan Documents and with the priority
identified in the Security Instruments. Without limiting the foregoing, the Company shall deliver,
and shall cause each other applicable Loan Party to deliver, to the Administrative Agent, in form
and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, (a) the Security Agreement, the
Pledge Agreement, the Escrow and Security Agreement and the Master Intercreditor Agreement, or (b)
in the case of Sonic Financial, the Sonic Financial Pledge Agreement and (c) in either case, UCC
financing statements in form, substance and number as requested by the Administrative Agent,
reflecting the Lien in favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties on
the Collateral. In addition, and without limiting the foregoing, the Company shall take and cause
each other Loan Party to take such further action, and deliver or cause to be delivered such
further documents and instruments, as required by the Security Instruments or otherwise as the
Administrative Agent may reasonably request to create, perfect and maintain the effectiveness and
priority of the Liens contemplated by this Article IIA and each of the Security
Instruments.

     2A.02 Further Assurances. At the request of the Administrative Agent from time to time, the
Company will or will cause all other Loan Parties, as the case may be, to execute, by their
respective Responsible Officers, alone or with the Administrative Agent, any certificate,
instrument, financing statement, control agreement, statement or document, or to procure any
certificate, instrument, statement or document or to take such other action (and pay all related
costs) which the Administrative Agent reasonably deems necessary from time to time to create,
continue or preserve the Liens in Collateral (and the perfection and priority thereof) of the
Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties contemplated hereby and by the other
Loan Documents and specifically including all Collateral acquired by the Company or any other Loan
Party after the Closing Date and all Collateral moved to or from time to time located at locations
owned by third parties, including all leased locations, bailees, warehousemen and third party
processors. The Administrative Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized to execute and file or cause
to be filed, with or if permitted by applicable law without the signature of the Company or any
Loan Party appearing thereon, all UCC financing statements reflecting the Company or any other Loan
Party as “debtor” and the Administrative Agent as “secured party”, and continuations thereof and
amendments thereto, as the Administrative Agent reasonably deems necessary or advisable to give
effect to the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents.

     2A.03 Information Regarding Collateral. The Company represents, warrants and covenants that
Schedule 2A.03(a) contains a true and complete list of (i) the exact legal name,
jurisdiction of formation and location of the chief executive office of the Company and each other
Person providing Collateral pursuant to a Security Instrument on the Closing Date (such Persons,
together with any other Persons that provide Collateral at any time pursuant to a

69

 

Security Instrument, being referred to collectively as the “Grantors”), (ii) each trade name, trademark or other trade
style used by such Grantor on the Closing Date, (iii) (as to each Grantor other than Sonic
Financial) each location in which goods constituting Collateral having an aggregate value in excess
of $100,000 are located as of the Closing Date, whether owned, leased or third-party locations, and
(iv) with respect to each leased or third party location, the name of each owner of such location
and a summary description of the relationship between the applicable Grantor and such Person. The
Company further covenants that it shall not change, and shall not permit any other Grantor to
change, its name, type of entity, jurisdiction of formation (whether by reincorporation, merger or
otherwise), or the location of its chief executive office, or use or permit any other Grantor to
use, any additional trade name, trademark or other trade style, except upon giving not less than 15
days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and taking or causing to be taken all such
action at the Company’s or such other Grantor’s expense as may be reasonably requested by the
Administrative Agent to perfect or maintain the perfection of the Lien of the Administrative Agent
for the benefit of the Secured Parties in Collateral.

ARTICLE
III.

TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

     3.01 Taxes.

     (a) Payments Free of Taxes; Obligation to Withhold; Payments on Account of Taxes. (i)
Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Company hereunder or under any other
Loan Document shall to the extent permitted by applicable Laws be made free and clear of and
without reduction or withholding for any Taxes. If applicable Laws require the Company or the
Administrative Agent to withhold or deduct any Tax, such Tax shall be withheld or deducted in
accordance with such Laws as determined by the Company or the Administrative Agent, as the case may
be, upon the basis of the information and documentation to be delivered pursuant to subsection (e)
below.

          (ii) If the Company or the Administrative Agent shall be required by the Code to
withhold or deduct any Taxes, including both United States Federal backup withholding and
withholding taxes, from any payment, then (A) the Administrative Agent shall withhold or
make such deductions as are determined by the Administrative Agent to be required based upon
the information and documentation it has received pursuant to subsection (e) below, (B) the
Administrative Agent shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant
Governmental Authority in accordance with the Code, and (C) to the extent that the
withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, the sum
payable by the Company shall be increased as necessary so that after any required
withholding or the making of all required deductions (including deductions applicable to
additional sums payable under this Section 3.01) the Administrative Agent, Lender or
the applicable L/C Issuer, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would
have received had no such withholding or deduction been made.

70

 

     (b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Company. Without limiting the provisions of
subsection (a) above, the Company shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental
Authority in accordance with applicable Laws.

     (c) Tax
Indemnifications. (i) Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) or
(b) above, the Company shall, and does hereby, indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and
each L/C Issuer, and shall make payment in respect thereof within 10 days after demand therefor,
for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other
Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) withheld or
deducted by the Company or the Administrative Agent or paid by the Administrative Agent or such
Lender, as the case may be, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom
or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or
legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. The Company shall also, and
does hereby, indemnify the Administrative Agent, and shall make payment in respect thereof within
10 days after demand therefor, for any amount which a Lender or an L/C Issuer for any reason fails
to pay indefeasibly to the Administrative Agent as required by clause (ii) of this subsection. A
certificate as to the amount of any such payment or liability delivered to the Company by a Lender
or an L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its
own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or an L/C Issuer, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

          (ii) Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) or (b) above, each Lender and
each L/C Issuer shall, and does hereby, indemnify the Company and the Administrative Agent,
and shall make payment in respect thereof within 10 days after demand therefor, against any
and all Taxes and any and all related losses, claims, liabilities, penalties, interest and
expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Company or
the Administrative Agent) incurred by or asserted against the Company or the Administrative
Agent by any Governmental Authority as a result of the failure by such Lender or such L/C
Issuer, as the case may be, to deliver, or as a result of the inaccuracy, inadequacy or
deficiency of, any documentation required to be delivered by such Lender or such L/C Issuer,
as the case may be, to the Company, any Lender or the Administrative Agent pursuant to
subsection (e). Each Lender and each L/C Issuer hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent
to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due to the Administrative Agent
under this clause (ii). The agreements in this clause (ii) shall survive the resignation
and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the
replacement of, a Lender or an L/C Issuer, the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and
the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations.

     (d) Evidence of Payments. Upon request by the Company or the Administrative Agent, as
the case may be, after any payment of Taxes by the Company or by the Administrative Agent to a
Governmental Authority as provided in this Section 3.01, the Company shall deliver to the
Administrative Agent or the Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Company, as the case may be,
the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such
payment, a copy of any return required by Laws to report such payment or other

71

 

evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Company or the Administrative Agent,
as the case may be.

     (e) Status of Lenders; Tax Documentation. (i) Each Lender and each L/C Issuer shall
deliver to the Company and to the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by
applicable Laws or when reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent, such
properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable Laws or by the taxing
authorities of any jurisdiction and such other reasonably requested information as will permit the
Company or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, to determine (A) whether or not payments
made hereunder or under any other Loan Document are subject to Taxes, (B) if applicable, the
required rate of withholding or deduction, and (C) such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s entitlement
to any available exemption from, or reduction of, applicable Taxes in respect of all payments to be
made to such Lender or such L/C Issuer by the Company pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise to
establish such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s status for withholding tax purposes in the applicable
jurisdiction.

     (ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the Company is resident for
tax purposes in the United States,

          (A) any Lender or any L/C Issuer that is a “United States person” within the
meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to the Company and the
Administrative Agent executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or such
other documentation or information prescribed by applicable Laws or reasonably
requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Company or
the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, to determine whether or not such
Lender or such L/C Issuer is subject to backup withholding or information reporting
requirements; and

          (B) each Foreign Lender, and each L/C Issuer that is a Foreign Lender, that is
entitled under the Code, any Law or any applicable treaty to an exemption from or
reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments hereunder or under any other
Loan Document shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent (in such
number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on
which such Foreign Lender or such L/C Issuer becomes a Lender under this Agreement
(and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Company or the
Administrative Agent, but only if such Foreign Lender or such L/C Issuer is legally
entitled to do so), whichever of the following is applicable:

(I) executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN claiming
eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States
is a party,

(II) executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI,

(III) executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY and all
required supporting documentation,

72

 

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

(V) executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable Laws as a
basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States Federal
withholding tax together with such supplementary documentation as may be
prescribed by applicable Laws to permit the Company or the Administrative
Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

          (iii) Each Lender and each L/C Issuer shall promptly (A) notify the Company and the
Administrative Agent of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any
claimed exemption or reduction, and (B) take such steps as shall not be materially
disadvantageous to it, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender or such L/C Issuer, and as
may be reasonably necessary (including the re-designation of its Lending Office) to avoid
any requirement of applicable Laws of any jurisdiction that the Company or the
Administrative Agent make any withholding or deduction for taxes from amounts payable to
such Lender or such L/C Issuer.

     (f) Treatment of Certain Refunds. Unless required by applicable Laws, at no time
shall the Administrative Agent have any obligation to file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a
Lender or an L/C Issuer, or have any obligation to pay to any Lender or an L/C Issuer, any refund
of Taxes withheld or deducted from funds paid for the account of such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as
the case may be. If the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any L/C Issuer determines, in its sole
discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been
indemnified by the Company or with respect to which the Company has paid additional amounts
pursuant to this Section, it shall pay to the Company an amount equal to such refund (but only to
the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Company under this
Section with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as the
case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental
Authority with respect to such refund), provided that the Company, upon the request of the
Administrative Agent, such Lender or such L/C Issuer, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the
Company (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental
Authority) to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such L/C Issuer in the event the
Administrative Agent, such Lender or such L/C Issuer is required to repay such refund to such
Governmental Authority. This subsection shall not be construed to require the Administrative
Agent, any Lender or any L/C issuer to make available its tax returns (or any other information
relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Company or any other Person.

73

 

     3.02 Illegality. If any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any
Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending
Office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to the Eurodollar
Rate, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate, or any Governmental
Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or
to take deposits of, Dollars in the London interbank market, then, on notice thereof by such Lender
to the Company through the Administrative Agent, (i) any obligation of such Lender to make or
continue Eurodollar Rate Loans or to convert Base Rate Committed Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans
shall be suspended, and (ii) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or
maintaining Base Rate Loans the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the Eurodollar
Rate component of the Base Rate, the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall,
if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference
to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate, in each case until such Lender notifies the
Administrative Agent and the Company that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no
longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, (x) the Company shall, upon demand from such Lender
(with a copy to the Administrative Agent), immediately prepay or, if applicable, convert all such
Eurodollar Rate Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans (the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans
of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative
Agent without reference to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate) immediately and (y) if
such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon
the Eurodollar Rate, the Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute
the Base Rate applicable to such Lender without reference to the Eurodollar Rate component thereof
until the Administrative Agent is advised in writing by such Lender that it is no longer illegal
for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate. Upon any
such prepayment or conversion, the Company shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid
or converted.

     3.03 Inability to Determine Rates. If the Required Lenders determine that for any reason in
connection with any request for a Eurodollar Rate Loan or a conversion thereto that (a) adequate
and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest
Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan or in connection with an existing or
proposed Base Rate Loan, or (b) the Eurodollar Rate with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan
does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, the
Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Company and each Lender. Thereafter, (x) the
obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended, and (y) in
the event of a determination described in the preceding sentence with respect to the Eurodollar
Rate component of the Base Rate, the utilization of the Eurodollar Rate component in determining
the Base Rate shall be suspended, in each case until the Administrative Agent (upon the instruction
of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Company may revoke
any pending request for a Borrowing of or conversion to Eurodollar Rate Loans or, failing that,
will be deemed to have converted such request into (i) in the case of a Committed Loan, a request
for a Committed Borrowing of Base Rate Loans and (ii) in the case of a Swing Line Loan, a request
for a Swing Line Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, in each case in the amount specified therein.

74

 

     3.04 Increased Costs.

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

          (i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan,
insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account
of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement
contemplated by Section 3.04(e)) or any L/C Issuer;

          (ii) subject any Lender or any L/C Issuer to any tax of any kind whatsoever with
respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any participation in a Letter of Credit or
any Eurodollar Rate Loan made or participated in by it, or change the basis of taxation of
payments to such Lender or such L/C Issuer in respect thereof (except, in each case, for
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 3.01 and the imposition of, or
any change in the rate of, any Excluded Tax payable by such Lender or such L/C Issuer); or

          (iii) impose on any Lender or any L/C Issuer or the London interbank market any other
condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Rate Loans made or
participated in by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or
maintaining or participating in any Loan the interest of which is determined by reference to the
Eurodollar Rate (or of maintaining its obligation to make or participated in any such Loan), or to
increase the cost to such Lender or such L/C Issuer of participating in, issuing or maintaining any
Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of
Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or such L/C
Issuer hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such
Lender or such L/C Issuer, the Company will pay to such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as the case may
be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as the
case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

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

75

 

     (c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender or such L/C Issuer
setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or such L/C Issuer or its
holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section and
delivered to the Company shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Company shall pay such
Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate
within 10 days after receipt thereof.

     (d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or such L/C Issuer
to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section shall not constitute a
waiver of such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s right to demand such compensation, provided
that the Company shall not be required to compensate a Lender or such L/C Issuer pursuant to the
foregoing provisions of this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more
than nine months prior to the date that such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be,
notifies the Company of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of
such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the
Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month
period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

     (e) Reserves on Eurodollar Rate Loans. The Company shall pay to each Lender, as long
as such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets
consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits (currently known as “Eurocurrency
liabilities”), additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Rate Loan
equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by
such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), which shall be due and payable
on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan, provided the Company shall have
received at least 10 days’ prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of such
additional interest from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice 10 days prior to the
relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest shall be due and payable 10 days from
receipt of such notice.

     3.05 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

     (a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation
under Section 3.04, or the Company is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender,
any L/C Issuer or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender or any L/C Issuer
pursuant to Section 3.01, or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to Section 3.02,
then such Lender or such L/C Issuer shall, as applicable, use reasonable efforts to designate a
different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and
obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of
such Lender or such L/C Issuer, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce
amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.04, as the case may be, in the
future, or eliminate the need for the notice pursuant to Section 3.02, as applicable, and
(ii) in each case, would not subject such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be, to any
unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender or such L/C
Issuer, as the case may be. The Company hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses
incurred by any Lender or any L/C Issuer in connection with any such designation or assignment.

76

 

     (b) Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section
3.04, or if the Company is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any
Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, the Company
may replace such Lender in accordance with Section 10.13.

     3.06 Survival. All of the Company’s obligations under this Article III shall survive
termination of the Aggregate Commitments and repayment of all other Obligations hereunder and
resignation of the Administrative Agent.

law, in equity, in arbitration or before any Governmental Authority, by or against the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries or against any of their properties or revenues that (a) purport to affect
or pertain to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any of the transactions contemplated
hereby, or (b) if determined adversely, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse

Internal Revenue Service to the effect that the form of such Pension Plan is qualified under
Section 401(a) of the Code with respect to all plan document qualification requirements for which
the applicable remedial amendment period has closed and that the trust related thereto has been
determined to be exempt from federal income tax under Section 501(a) of the Code or an application
for such a letter is currently being processed by the Internal Revenue Service. To the best
knowledge of the Company, nothing has occurred that would prevent or cause the loss of such
tax-qualified status.

attainment percentage (as defined in Section 430(d)(2) of the Code) is 60% or higher and neither

funding target attainment percentage for any such plan to drop below 60% as of the most recent
valuation date; (iv) neither the Company nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred any liability to the
PBGC other than for the payment of premiums, and there are no premium payments which have become

certificate or other information furnished (whether in writing or orally) by or on behalf of any
Loan Party to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with the transactions
contemplated hereby and the negotiation of this Agreement or delivered hereunder or under any other

85

 

furnished) contains any material misstatement of fact or omits to state any material fact
necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading; provided that, with respect to projected financial information, the
Company represents only that such information was prepared in good faith based upon assumptions
believed to be reasonable at the time.

material respects with the requirements of all Laws and all orders, writs, injunctions and decrees
applicable to it or to its properties, except in such instances in which (a) such requirement of

without conflict with the rights of any other Person, except where the failure to do so, either
individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect. To the best knowledge of the Company, no slogan or other advertising device, product,
process, method, substance, part or other material now employed, or now contemplated to be
employed, by the Company or any Subsidiary infringes upon any rights held by any other Person. No
claim or litigation regarding any of the foregoing is pending or, to the best knowledge of the
Company, threatened, which, either individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect.

     5.18 Books and Records. Each of the Company and each Subsidiary maintains proper books of
record and account, in which full, true and correct entries in conformity with GAAP consistently
applied have been made of all financial transactions and matters involving the assets and business
of the Company or such Subsidiary, as the case may be.

     5.19 Franchise Agreements and Framework Agreements. The Company has provided to the
Administrative Agent true, correct and complete copies of (a) a standard form of Franchise
Agreement for each vehicle manufacturer or distributor and (b) each Framework Agreement, in each
case in effect as of the Closing Date. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.19 or with
respect to any Franchise Agreement entered into after the Closing Date and delivered to the
Administrative Agent and each Lender pursuant to Section 6.03(f), there is no material
deviation in any Franchise Agreement from the standard form of Franchise Agreements for the
applicable vehicle manufacturer or distributor delivered as of the Closing Date. Each Franchise
Agreement and Framework Agreement is, other than as disclosed in writing to the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders, in full force and effect and is enforceable by the applicable Loan Party in
accordance with its terms. To the knowledge of the Company, (a) no party to any Franchise
Agreement or Framework Agreement is in material breach of, or has failed to perform in any material
respect or is in material default under, such Franchise Agreement or Framework Agreement and (b) no
party to any Franchise Agreement or Framework Agreement has given or received any notice of any
proposed or threatened termination of such Franchise Agreement or

86

 

Framework Agreement (except any such notice that has been disclosed to the Administrative
Agent and each Lender, as the case may be, pursuant to Section 6.03(f)).

     5.20 Collateral.

     (a) The provisions of each of the Security Instruments are effective to create in favor of the
Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a legal, valid and enforceable,
perfected security interest (with the priority described therein) in all right, title and interest
of each applicable Loan Party in the Collateral described therein, except as otherwise permitted
hereunder.

     (b) No Contractual Obligation to which any Loan Party is a party or by which the property of
any Loan Party is bound prohibits the filing or recordation of any of the Loan Documents or any
other action which is necessary or appropriate in connection with the perfection of the Liens on
Collateral evidenced and created by any of the Loan Documents.

     5.21 Solvency. Both before and after giving effect to the Loans hereunder, each Loan Party is
Solvent. On the Closing Date, both before and after giving effect to the Loans hereunder, each
Loan Party is Solvent.

     5.22 Labor Matters. As of the date hereof, to the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ knowledge,
there are no material labor disputes to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries may become a
party, including, without limitation, any strikes, lockouts or other disputes relating to such
Persons’ plants and other facilities.

     5.23 Acquisitions. As of the Closing Date and as of the date of each Permitted Acquisition,
all material conditions precedent to, all consents from applicable Governmental Authorities, and
all other material consents necessary to permit, such Permitted Acquisition will have been
obtained, satisfied, or waived (except that (i) no conditions imposed by the Loan Documents are so
waivable other than with the consent of the Required Lenders and (ii) no other conditions shall be
waived if such waiver would materially adversely affect the benefits to be obtained by the Company
or the Secured Parties from such Acquisition), as the case may be.

     5.24 Real Estate Indebtedness. The amount of any Indebtedness of the Company and its
Subsidiaries secured by Liens on the real property and improvements financed thereby is no greater
than eighty-five percent (85%) of the value of such real property and improvements as set forth in
an appraisal of such real property and improvements prepared by an independent Member of the
Appraisal Institute certified appraiser in connection with such Indebtedness (which appraisal shall
be delivered to Administrative Agent upon its request).

     5.25 Permitted Service Loaner Indebtedness. All Indebtedness for the financing of Service
Loaner Vehicles provided by Service Loaner Lenders which are not parties to the Master
Intercreditor Agreement is secured solely by a Lien on said Service Loaner Vehicles so financed by
the respective Service Loaner Lenders and the proceeds of such Vehicles.

     8.01 Events of Default. Any of the following shall constitute an Event of Default (each an
“Event of Default”):

     (a) Non-Payment. The Company or any other Loan Party fails to pay (i) when and as
required to be paid herein, any amount of principal of any Loan or any L/C Obligation, or (ii)
within five (5) days after the same becomes due, any interest on any Loan or on any L/C Obligation,
or any fee due hereunder, or (iii) within five (5) days after the same becomes due, any other
amount payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document; or

     (b) Specific Covenants. The Company fails to perform or observe any term, covenant or
agreement contained in any of Section 6.01, 6.02(a), (b), (c) or (d), 6.03,

     (e) Cross-Default. (i) The Company or any Subsidiary (A) fails to make any payment
when due (whether by scheduled maturity, required prepayment, acceleration, demand, or otherwise)

the Threshold Amount, or (B) fails to observe or perform any other agreement or condition relating
to any such Indebtedness or Guarantee or contained in any instrument or agreement evidencing,
securing or relating thereto, or any other event occurs (each, an “Other Event”), the
effect of which default or Other Event is to cause, or to permit the holder or holders of such
Indebtedness or the beneficiary or beneficiaries of such Guarantee (or a trustee or agent on behalf
of such holder or holders or beneficiary or beneficiaries) to cause, with the giving of notice if
required, such Indebtedness in excess of the Threshold Amount (either individually or in the

become due or to be repurchased, prepaid, defeased or redeemed (automatically or otherwise), or an
offer to repurchase, prepay, defease or redeem such Indebtedness to be made, prior to its stated
maturity, or such Guarantee to become payable or cash collateral in respect thereof to be demanded;
provided that, the mere fact that any Indebtedness is a “demand obligation” and payment
thereof may be demanded at any time (whether or not any Person has defaulted thereunder) shall not,
by itself, constitute an “Other Event,” but the demand for payment thereof shall constitute an
“Other Event”; or (ii) there occurs under any Swap Contract an Early Termination Date (as defined
in such Swap Contract) resulting from (A) any event of default under such Swap Contract as to which
the Company or any Subsidiary is the Defaulting Party (as defined in such Swap Contract) or (B) any

application or consent of such Person and the appointment continues undischarged or unstayed for
sixty (60) calendar days; or any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law relating to any such Person
or to all or any material part of its property is instituted without the consent of such Person and
continues undismissed or unstayed for sixty (60) calendar days, or an order for relief is entered
in any such proceeding; or

unable or admits in writing its inability or fails generally to pay its debts as they become due,

fully bonded within thirty (30) days after its issue or levy; or

judgment or order for the payment of money in an aggregate amount exceeding the Threshold Amount,
or in the case of the class action lawsuit regarding the APCO etch product, Case No. 02-12274
currently pending in the 13th Judicial Circuit, Hillsborough County, Florida, $20,000,000 (in each
case, to the extent not covered by independent third-party insurance as to which the insurer does
not dispute coverage), or (ii) any one or more non-monetary final

109

 

judgments that have, or could reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the
aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect and, in either case, (A) enforcement proceedings are commenced

Agreement, except in each case referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) to the extent such
termination, suspension, expiration, default or change (either individually or in the aggregate)
could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; provided that, in the
event a Franchise Agreement expires in accordance with its terms, if and for so long as the
respective dealership Subsidiary and manufacturer or distributor are negotiating in good faith to
renew such Franchise Agreement, and the respective manufacturer or distributor has not taken (and
is not reasonably expected to take) any action to terminate such Franchise Agreement, such
expiration shall not by itself be considered an Event of Default under this Section
8.01(l); or

     (m) Floorplan Event of Default. A Floorplan Event of Default shall occur and be
continuing.

110

Issuer to make L/C Credit Extensions to be terminated, whereupon such commitments and
obligation shall be terminated;

     (ii) declare the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Loans, all interest accrued
and unpaid thereon, and all other amounts owing or payable hereunder or under any other Loan
Document to be immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other
notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Company;

     (iii) require that the Company Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations (in an amount
equal to the then Outstanding Amount thereof); and

     (iv) exercise on behalf of itself, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers all rights and
remedies available to it, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers under the Loan Documents;

provided, however, that upon the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an
order for relief with respect to the Company under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, the
obligation of each Lender to make Loans and any obligation of each L/C Issuer to make L/C Credit
Extensions shall automatically terminate, the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Loans and
all interest and other amounts as aforesaid shall automatically become due and payable, and the
obligation of the Company to Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations as aforesaid shall
automatically become effective, in each case without further act of the Administrative Agent or any
Lender.

     (b) In addition to the foregoing, if any Floorplan Event of Default or Event of Default occurs
and is continuing, the Administrative Agent shall, at the request of, or may, with the consent of,
the Required Lenders or the Required Floorplan Lenders, take any or all of the following actions:

     (i) foreclose upon, take possession of, or otherwise exercise any remedies available to
it under any Security Instrument with respect to, any of the Collateral securing any of the
obligations under the Floorplan Loan Documents, or

     (ii) take any action to perfect or preserve the rights of the Revolving Administrative
Agent with respect to any Collateral described in clause (i) above, including filing any
appropriate claim or document with respect to any such Collateral in any proceeding under
any Debtor Relief Law.

     8.03 Application of Funds. After the exercise of remedies provided for in this Article
VIII (or after the Loans have automatically become immediately due and payable and the L/C
Obligations have automatically been required to be Cash Collateralized as set forth in the proviso
to Section 8.02), any amounts received on account of the Obligations shall, subject to the
provisions of Sections 2.15 and 2.16 (and unless the Administrative Agent
determines in good

111

 

faith that any such amount should be delivered to another Person pursuant to the Master
Intercreditor Agreement), be applied by the Administrative Agent in the following order:

     First, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities,
expenses and other amounts (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the
Administrative Agent and amounts payable under Article III but excluding amounts payable
under Related Swap Contracts or Secured Cash Management Arrangements) payable to the Administrative
Agent in its capacity as such;

     Second, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid
interest and principal of the Swing Line Loans due to the Swing Line Lender;

     Third, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities
and other amounts (other than principal, interest, Letter of Credit Fees and amounts payable in
respect of Related Swap Agreements or Secured Cash Management Arrangements) payable to the Lenders
and the L/C Issuers (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the respective Lenders
and the L/C Issuers (including fees and time charges for attorneys who may be employees of any
Lender or the L/C Issuers) and amounts payable under Article III), ratably among them in
proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Third payable to them;

     Fourth, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid
Letter of Credit Fees and interest on the Loans, L/C Borrowings and other Obligations (other than
such Obligations under Related Swap Contracts or Secured Cash Management Arrangements), ratably
among the Lenders and the L/C Issuers in proportion to the respective amounts described in this
clause Fourth payable to them;

     Fifth, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting unpaid principal of
the Loans and L/C Borrowings, ratably among the Lenders and the L/C Issuers in proportion to the
respective amounts described in this clause Fifth held by them;

     Sixth, to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuers, to Cash
Collateralize that portion of L/C Obligations comprised of the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters
of Credit to the extent not otherwise Cash Collateralized by the Company pursuant to Sections
2.03 and 2.16;

     Seventh, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting unpaid Obligations
then owing under Related Swap Contracts and Secured Cash Management Arrangements, ratably among the
Lenders or Affiliate of the Lenders and Cash Management Banks in proportion to the respective
amounts described in this clause Seventh held by them;

     Eighth, to the payment of all other Obligations of the Loan Parties owing under or in
respect of the Loan Documents that are due and payable to the Administrative Agent and the other

all such Obligations owing to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties on such date;
and

112

 

     Last, the balance, if any, after all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in
full, to the Company or as otherwise required by Law.

Subject to Section 2.03(c) and 2.16, amounts used to Cash Collateralize the
aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit pursuant to clause Seventh above shall be
applied to satisfy drawings under such Letters of Credit as they occur. If any amount remains on
deposit as Cash Collateral after all Letters of Credit have either been fully drawn or expired,
such remaining amount shall be applied to the other Obligations, if any, in the order set forth
above.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Obligations arising under Secured Cash Management Arrangements and
Related Swap Agreements shall be excluded from the application described above if the
Administrative Agent has not received written notice thereof, together with such supporting
documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Cash Management Bank or
Lender or Affiliate of a Lender party to a Related Swap Agreement, as the case may be. Each Cash
Management Bank or Affiliate of a Lender party to a Related Swap Agreement not a party to this
Agreement that has given the notice contemplated by the preceding sentence shall, by such notice,
be deemed to have acknowledged and accepted the appointment of the Administrative Agent pursuant to
the terms of Article IX for itself and its Affiliates as if a “Lender” party hereto.

ARTICLE IX.

ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

appoints Bank of America to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the
other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and
to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or
thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The
provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and
the L/C Issuers, and neither the Company nor any other Loan Party shall have rights as a third
party beneficiary of any of such provisions.

     9.02 Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have
the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the
same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall,
unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person
serving as the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may
accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity
for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Company or any Subsidiary or other
Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any
duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

     9.03 Exculpatory Provisions. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or
obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:

113

 

     (a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a
Default has occurred and is continuing;

     (b) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary
powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan
Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the
Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided
for herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that the Administrative Agent shall
not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose
the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law;
and

     (c) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any
duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to
the Company or any of their Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as
the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

     The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with
the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders or (under the circumstances described in
Section 8.02(c)) either the Required Lenders or the Required Floorplan Lenders) (or, in
each case, such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the
Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as
provided in Sections 10.01 and 8.02) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross
negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge
of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to the Administrative Agent
by the Company, a Lender or an L/C Issuer.

     The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire
into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or
any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered
hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance
of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the
occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this
Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the
satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to
confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

     9.04 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely
upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate,
consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message,
Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to
have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent
also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been
made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining
compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of
Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or the

114

 

applicable L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is
satisfactory to such Lender or such L/C Issuer unless the Administrative Agent shall have received
notice to the contrary from such Lender or such L/C Issuer prior to the making of such Loan or the
issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who
may be counsel for the Company), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and
shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any
such counsel, accountants or experts.

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

     9.06 Resignation of Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may at any time give
notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and the Company. Upon receipt of any
such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the
Company, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an
Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have
been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days
after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring
Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers, appoint a successor
Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if the
Administrative Agent shall notify the Company and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has
accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance
with such notice and (1) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and
obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral
security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or any L/C Issuer under any of
the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral
security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (2) all payments,
communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent
shall instead be made by or to each Lender and each L/C Issuer directly, until such time as the
Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section.
Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor
shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the
retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be
discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if
not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the
Company to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor
unless otherwise agreed between the Company and such successor. After the retiring Administrative
Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article
and Section 10.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative
Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties

115

 

in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring
Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

     Any resignation by Bank of America as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also
constitute its resignation as an L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender. Upon the acceptance of a
successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, (a) such successor shall succeed to and
become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring L/C Issuer and
Swing Line Lender (b) the retiring L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender shall be discharged from all of
their respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and (c) the
successor L/C Issuer shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if
any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to the
retiring L/C Issuer to effectively assume the obligations of the retiring L/C Issuer with respect
to such Letters of Credit.

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

     9.08 No Other Duties, Etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the
Bookrunner, the Arranger or any Syndication Agents or Documentation Agents listed on the cover page
hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other
Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, a Lender or an
L/C Issuer hereunder.

     9.09 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any
receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment,
composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent
(irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or L/C Obligation shall then be due and payable
as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative
Agent shall have made any demand on the Company) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention
in such proceeding or otherwise.

     (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and
unpaid in respect of the Loans, L/C Obligations and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid
and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of
the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the L/C Issuers, the
Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders,
the L/C Issuers and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.03(i) and (j),

arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or any
L/C Issuer to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in
any such proceeding.

     9.10 Collateral and Guaranty Matters. The Lenders and the L/C Issuers irrevocably authorize
the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion,

     (a) to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under

Management Bank or Lender or Affiliate of a Lender party to a Related Swap Agreement that obtains
the benefit of the provisions of Section 8.02, any Subsidiary Guaranty or any Collateral by
virtue of the provisions hereof or of the Subsidiary Guaranty or any Security Instrument shall have
any right to notice of any action or to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or
under any other Loan Document or otherwise in respect of the Collateral (including the release or
impairment of any Collateral) other than in its capacity as a Lender and, in such case, only to the
extent expressly provided in the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Article IX to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to verify the
payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, Obligations
arising under Secured Cash Management Arrangements and Related Swap Agreements unless the
Administrative Agent has received written notice of such Obligations, together with such supporting
documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Cash Management Bank or
Lender or Affiliate of a Lender, as the case may be.

Floorplan Administrative Agent, and (vi) notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Security Agreement
expressly requires the consent of the Required Floorplan Lenders or the acknowledgment of the

of all Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x) the Commitment of any Defaulting
Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender and (y) any waiver,
amendment or the modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by

existing facilities hereunder, and (ii) in connection with the foregoing, to permit, as deemed
appropriate by the Administrative Agent and approved by the Required Lenders, the Lenders providing

Agent, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender or any L/C
Issuer pursuant to Article II if such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as applicable, has
notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by
electronic communication. The Administrative Agent or the Company may, in its discretion, agree to

OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR
FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY ANY AGENT PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE
BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM. In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its
Related Parties (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to the Company, any Lender,
any L/C Issuer or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind
(whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of the Company’s or the Administrative Agent’s
transmission of Borrower Materials through the Internet, except to the extent that such losses,
claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a
final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct
of such Agent Party; provided, however, that in no event shall any Agent Party have
any liability to the Company, any Loan Party, any Lender, any L/C Issuer

121

 

or any other Person for indirect, special, incidental, consequential or punitive damages (as
opposed to direct or actual damages).

     (d) Change of Address, Etc. Each of the Company, the Administrative Agent, Bank of

     (e) Reliance by Administrative Agent, L/C Issuer and Lenders. The Administrative
Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices
(including telephonic Committed Loan Notices and Swing Line Loan Notices) purportedly given by or
on behalf of the Company even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were
incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii)
the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. The
Company shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each L/C Issuer, each Lender and the Related
Parties of each of them from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the

telephonic notices to and other telephonic communications with the Administrative Agent may be
recorded by the Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such
recording.

     10.03 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure by any Lender, any L/C Issuer or the
Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay by any such Person in exercising, any right, remedy,
power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial
exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies,
powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies,
powers and privileges provided by law.

     10.04 Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.

     (b) Indemnification by the Company. The Company shall indemnify the Administrative
Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), each Lender and each L/C Issuer, and each Related Party of any

each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related
expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee), and
shall indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee from all fees and time charges and disbursements

Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the
parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder, the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or, in the case of the Administrative Agent (and any
sub-agent thereof) and its Related Parties only, the administration of this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use or proposed use of the proceeds
therefrom (including any refusal by the applicable L/C Issuer to honor a demand for payment under a
Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply
with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of
Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding
relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether
brought by a third party or by the Company or any other Loan Party, and regardless of whether any
Indemnitee is a party thereto, in all cases, whether or not caused by or arising, in whole or in
part, out of the comparative, contributory or sole negligence of the Indemnitee; provided
that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses,
claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) result from a claim brought by the Company or any
other Loan Party against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations
hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if the Company or such Loan Party has obtained a final
and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction.

     (c) Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that the Company for any reason fails to
indefeasibly pay any amount required under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section to be paid by it
to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agents thereof), each L/C Issuer or any Related Party of
any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any

123

 

such sub-agent), such L/C Issuer or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s
Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or
indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense
or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred
by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or such L/C Issuer in its
capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the
Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or such L/C Issuer in connection with such capacity.
The obligations of the Lenders under this subsection (c) are subject to the provisions of
Section 2.12(d).

     (d) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law, the Company shall not assert, and the Company hereby waives, any claim against any
Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages
(as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of,
this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the
proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to in subsection (b) above shall be liable for any
damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials
distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems
in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated
hereby or thereby.

     (e) Payments. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than ten
Business Days after demand therefor.

     (f) Survival. The agreements in this Section shall survive the resignation of the
Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender and Bank of America as an L/C Issuer, the replacement
of any Lender, the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or
discharge of all the other Obligations.

     10.05 Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Company is
made to the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer, the Swing Line Lender or any other Lender, or the
Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer, the Swing Line Lender or any other Lender exercises its right
of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently
invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant
to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent, such L/C Issuer or such Lender in its
discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any
proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the
obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in
full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b)
each Lender and each L/C Issuer severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its
applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the
Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment
is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. The
obligations of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers under clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall
survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

124

assigns permitted hereby, except that neither the Company nor any other Loan Party may assign or
otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of

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
subsection (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related
Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Lenders) any legal or

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 the
assigning 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 subsection (b)(i)(A) of this Section, the
aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans
outstanding thereunder) or, if the 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 $2,500,000 unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company otherwise consents (each such
consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided,
however, that concurrent assignments to members of an Assignee Group and
concurrent assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single Eligible
Assignee (or to an Eligible Assignee and members of its Assignee Group) will be
treated as a single assignment for purposes of determining whether such minimum
amount has been met;

125

 

     (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 Loans or the Commitment assigned, except that this

shall be required unless (1) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at
the time of such assignment or (2) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a
Lender or an Approved Fund; provided that the Company shall be
deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by
written notice to the Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after
having received notice thereof;

unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required if such assignment is to a
Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with
respect to such Lender;

     (C) the consent of the L/C Issuers (such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment that increases the
obligation of the assignee to participate in exposure under one or more Letters of
Credit (whether or not then outstanding); and

     (D) the consent of the Swing Line Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment.

     (iv) Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each permitted assignment shall
execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with
a processing and recordation fee in the amount of $3,500, provided however, that the
Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and
recordation fees in the case of any assignment. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall
deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

     (v) No Assignment to Certain Persons. No such assignment shall be made (A) to
any Loan Party or any of the Subsidiaries of any Loan Party, or (B) to any Defaulting Lender

constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B), or (C) to a natural
person.

     (vi) Certain Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of rights
and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective

to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an
aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which

126

 

may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or
subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the
Company and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously
requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee
and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment
liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent or any Lender
hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full
pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans in
accordance with its Applicable Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that
any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become
effective under applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph,
then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all
purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

     Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection
(c) of this Section, 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 3.01, 3.04, 3.05, and 10.04
with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment.
Upon request, the Company (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender.
Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not
comply with this subsection 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 subsection (d) of this
Section.

     (c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of
the Company (and such agency being solely for tax purposes), shall maintain at the Administrative
Agent’s 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 and L/C Obligations 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
Company, 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. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall maintain on
the Register information regarding the designation, and revocation of designation, of any Lender as
a Defaulting Lender. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Company and any L/C
Issuer at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. In addition, at
any time that a request for a consent for a material or substantive change to the Loan Documents is
pending, any Lender may request and receive from the Administrative Agent a copy of the Register.

127

 

     (d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to,
the Company, the Swing Line Lender, any L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent, sell participations
to any Person (other than a natural person, a Defaulting Lender or the Company or any of the
Company’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 (including such Lender’s participations in L/C Obligations and/or Swing
Line 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 Company, the Administrative Agent, the
Lenders and the L/C Issuers shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in
connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.

     Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall
provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any
amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such
agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the
Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to
Section 10.01 that affects such Participant. Subject to subsection (e) of this Section,
the Company agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01
and 3.04 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by
assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each
Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.08 as though it were a
Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.13 as though it
were a Lender.

     (e) Limitations upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to
receive any greater payment under Section 3.01 or 3.04 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 Company’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 3.01 unless the Company is notified of the participation sold to
such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Company, to comply with
Section 3.01(e) 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 (including under any of its Note, if any)
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) Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,” “signed,”
“signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include
electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the
same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a
paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any
applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce

128

 

Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws
based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

     (h) Resignation as an L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender after Assignment.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (i) if at any time Bank of America
assigns all of its Commitment and Loans pursuant to subsection (b) above, Bank of America may, (A)
upon 30 days’ notice to the Company and the Lenders, resign as an L/C Issuer and/or (B) upon 30
days’ notice to the Company, resign as Swing Line Lender, and (ii) if at any time Wells Fargo
assigns all of its Commitment and Loans pursuant to subsection (b) above, Wells Fargo may, upon 30
days’ notice to the Company and the Lenders, resign as an L/C Issuer. In the event of any such
resignation by Bank of America or Wells Fargo as an L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, the Company
shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders a successor L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender (as
applicable) hereunder; provided, however, that no failure by the Company to appoint
any such successor shall affect the resignation of (x) Bank of America as an L/C Issuer or Swing
Line Lender or (y) Wells Fargo as an L/C Issuer, as the case may be. If Bank of America or Wells
Fargo resigns as L/C Issuer, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of an
L/C Issuer hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of
its resignation as an L/C Issuer and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto (including the right
to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Committed Loans or fund risk participations in
Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to Section 2.03(c)). If Bank of America resigns as Swing
Line Lender, it shall retain all the rights of the Swing Line Lender provided for hereunder with
respect to Swing Line Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such
resignation, including the right to require the Lenders to make Eurodollar Rate Committed Loans or
fund risk participations in outstanding Swing Line Loans pursuant to Section 2.04(c). Upon
the appointment of a successor L/C Issuer and/or Swing Line Lender (a) such successor shall succeed
to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring L/C
Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be, and (b) such successor L/C Issuer shall issue
letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, of the resigning L/C Issuer
outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to Bank of
America or Wells Fargo, as the case may be, to effectively assume the obligations of Bank of
America or Wells Fargo, as the case may be, with respect to such Letters of Credit.

     10.07 Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent,
the Lenders and the L/C Issuers agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as
defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its
Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and
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) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have
jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of
Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any
subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the
exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding
relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or
thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of
this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or

129

 

Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or
prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the
Company and its obligations, (g) with the consent of the Company or (h) to the extent such
Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or
(y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any L/C Issuer or any of their
respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Company.

     For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the
Company or any Subsidiary relating to the Company or any Subsidiary or any of their respective
businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any
Lender or any L/C Issuer on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Company or any
Subsidiary, provided that, in the case of information received from the Company or any
Subsidiary 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.

     Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers acknowledges that (a) the
Information may include material non-public information concerning the Company or a Subsidiary, as
the case may be, (b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material
non-public information and (c) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance
with applicable Law, including Federal and state securities Laws.

     10.08 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each
Lender, each L/C Issuer and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time
and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any
and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency)
at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender,
such L/C Issuer or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Company against
any and all of the obligations of the Company now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any
other Loan Document to such Lender or such L/C Issuer, irrespective of whether or not such Lender
or such L/C Issuer shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and
although such obligations of the Company may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or
office of such Lender or such L/C Issuer different from the branch or office holding such deposit
or obligated on such indebtedness; provided, that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall
exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the
Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section
2.16 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other
funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and (y)
the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in
reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such
right of setoff. The rights of each Lender, each L/C Issuer and their respective Affiliates under
this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that
such Lender, such L/C Issuer or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender and each L/C
Issuer agrees to notify the Company

130

 

and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application, provided
that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

     10.09 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any
Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the
maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If
the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum
Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such
unpaid principal, refunded to the Company. In determining whether the interest contracted for,
charged, or received by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person
may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal
as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the
effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the
total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

     10.10 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents
may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each
of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a
single contract. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire contract among
the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and
understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in
Section 4.01, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall become effective when they
shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have
received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other
parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement or any
other Loan Document by telecopy or other electronic imaging means shall be effective as delivery of
a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement or such other Loan Documents.

     10.11 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made
hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or
in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof.
Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Administrative Agent
and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or
on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice
or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Credit Extension, and shall continue in full force
and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied
or any Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding.

     10.12 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to
be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the
remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or
impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the
illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which
comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The

131

 

invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render
unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions
of this Section 10.12, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in
this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined
in good faith by the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers or the Swing Line Lender, as applicable,
then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

     10.13 Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04,
or if the Company is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental
Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, or if any Lender is a
Defaulting Lender, then the Company may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender
and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in
accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section
10.06), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan
Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender,
if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:

     (a) the Company shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in
Section 10.06(b);

     (b) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to not less than 100% of the
outstanding principal of its Loans and L/C Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all
other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents from the assignee (to the
extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Company (in the case of
all other amounts);

     (c) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under
Section 3.04 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.01, such
assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and

     (d) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws.

     A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as
a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Company to
require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

     10.14 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Etc.

     (a) GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE
WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA.

     (b) SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION. THE COMPANY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS,
FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY, TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NORTH
CAROLINA SITTING IN MECKLENBURG COUNTY AND OF THE UNITED STATES FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT, AND ANY
APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF, IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS

132

 

AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, OR FOR RECOGNITION OR ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT, AND
EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY
SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH NORTH CAROLINA 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 OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE
ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW.
NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT OR IN ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT THE
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY LENDER OR ANY L/C ISSUER MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR
PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AGAINST THE COMPANY OR ITS
PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION.

     (c) WAIVER OF VENUE. THE COMPANY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE
FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE
LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY
OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT IN ANY COURT REFERRED TO IN PARAGRAPH (B) OF THIS SECTION. EACH OF THE PARTIES
HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE DEFENSE OF
AN INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT.

     (d) SERVICE OF PROCESS. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS
IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES IN SECTION 10.02. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT WILL AFFECT
THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY HERETO TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

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

133

 

     10.16 USA PATRIOT Act Notice. Each Lender that is subject to the Act (as hereinafter defined)
and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the
Company that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56
(signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and
record information that identifies the Company, which information includes the name and address of
the Company and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as
applicable, to identify the Company in accordance with the Act.

     10.17 Designated Senior Indebtedness. Each party acknowledges and agrees that the
Indebtedness under the Loan Documents is “Designated Senior Indebtedness” (or any similar term)
under, and as defined in, the Indenture Indebtedness or any Additional Indebtedness.

SCHEDULE 1.01B

CERTAIN ERISA INFORMATION

Seven dealership subsidiaries of Sonic Automotive, Inc. located in Northern California are
contributing employers to the Automotive Industries Pension Trust Fund (EIN # 94-1133245), Plan No.
001 (the “Plan”), a “Multiemployer Plan” (as defined in the Agreement) the participants and
beneficiaries of which are primarily union member employees or retirees of the International
Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers District Lodge 190 in Northern California (the “IAM
Local 190”), with numerous participating contributing employers primarily located in the State of
California.

The federal Pension Protection Act of 2006 (the “Act”) requires multiemployer defined benefit
pension plans to engage an actuary to annually evaluate the particular pension plan’s funding
status, and to determine the extent to which the particular plan is projected to meet its
obligations. A determination by the actuary that the particular plan is in “critical status”
pursuant to the Act triggers requirements for the particular plan to adopt a rehabilitation plan
designed to improve the plan’s financial condition over time and improve the plan’s ability to meet
pension obligations in the future. The Board of Trustees of the Automotive Industries Pension
Trust Fund has formally notified participants, beneficiaries, contributing employers and the IAM
Local 190 that the Plan’s actuary certified the Plan to be in critical status pursuant to the Act.
The Board has also adopted a Rehabilitation Plan to address such status pursuant to the
requirements of the Act, including suspension or elimination of certain benefits to beneficiaries
under the Plan and requirements to increase contributing employer contributions beginning in the
2013 calendar year.

LITIGATION

Actions, suits, proceedings, claims or disputes pending, or to the knowledge of the Company after
due and diligent investigation, threatened or contemplated, at law, in equity, in arbitration or
before any Governmental Authority seeking damages or other remedies in excess of $5,000,000 or
which, if determined adversely, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

CALIFORNIA

Grewal, Baljinder v. Mercedes-Benz of Calabasas, et al.

Plaintiff purchased a 2006 Mercedes-Benz S430 from a non-Sonic dealership. The car was serviced at
Mercedes-Benz of Calabasas before and after Sonic purchased the dealership. On January 23, 2008
Plaintiff was involved in a single car accident where the vehicle struck a highway guardrail during
a rainstorm. The guardrail pierced through the passenger compartment of the vehicle, severely
cutting both of Plaintiff’s legs. Ultimately both legs were amputated. Plaintiff contends the
servicing dealerships failed to adequately service the vehicle, including failing to advise that
the wheels needed replacement. A Motion for Summary Judgment is pending on behalf of the Sonic
dealership. Trial is scheduled for March 15, 2010. Certain insurance is available with a $750,000
deductible.

Zamani v. Serramonte Auto Plaza, Sonic Automotive, Inc., et al.

Lawsuit filed by former sales associate at one of Sonic’s California dealerships alleging that he
was not paid proper commissions for every used vehicle that he sold during his employment from June
2006 to September 2006. The lawsuit purports to be a class action on behalf of all sales
associates at all dealerships owned by Sonic in the State of California relating to used vehicle
sales. The case has been ordered to Arbitration, and no ruling has occurred to date on class
certification.

Hall v. Sonic Automotive, Inc., et al.

Lawsuit filed by consumer alleging that one of Sonic’s California dealerships improperly recorded
telephone conversations with customers without providing advance warnings or notice required by
applicable law. The lawsuit purports to be a class action on behalf of allegedly similarly
affected consumers against all of Sonic’s California dealerships. No ruling has occurred to date
on class certification.

Phillips v. FAA Torrance CPJ, Inc. and Sonic Automotive, Inc.

Lawsuit filed by sales associate at one of Sonic’s California dealerships alleging failure to
provide rest and meal time breaks and other wage-hour claims. The lawsuit purports to be a class
action for two separate classes of employees: (1) on behalf of all sales associates at all

Schedule 5.06 — Page 1

 

dealerships owned by Sonic in the State of California who were classified as non-exempt employees,
and (2) all associates of Sonic’s California dealerships where the itemized wage statements merely
identified the d/b/a of the employer rather than the employer’s formal legal entity name. No
ruling has occurred to date on class certification.

Carson CJ, LLC and Kenneth Phillips v. DaimlerChrysler Motors Company, Chrysler Corporation,
Inc., Sonic Automotive, Inc., et al.

Lawsuit filed in 2009 by company and individual owner that purchased the Don Kott Chrysler Jeep and
Don Kott Kia dealership assets from Sonic in 2005. The plaintiff company had its Chrysler and Jeep
franchises terminated by Chrysler Corporation during Chrysler’s bankruptcy proceeding in June 2009.
Plaintiffs’ claims against Sonic allege that Sonic made intentional misrepresentations to the
Plaintiffs in conjunction with the 2005 purchase of the dealership assets. Sonic will be moving to
compel arbitration of this matter in accordance with the asset purchase agreement.

FLORIDA

Galura, Kimbrell, McNaughton, et al. v. Sonic Automotive, Inc.

Class action of all customers who purchased or leased a vehicle from one of the Company’s Florida
dealerships after December 31, 1998, where the purchase or lease included an APCO etch product as
part of the transaction. Complaint alleges violations of Florida’s Unfair Trade Practice Act,
Retail Installment Sales Act, etc. relating to the improper disclosure of etch sales.
DaimlerChrysler Insurance Company (“DCIC”) was providing partial defense costs under a reservation
of rights, but their coverage has now been exhausted. The Sonic Defendants still have Motions for
Summary Judgment pending. Currently the case is set for trial on March 8, 2010, though that date
is very likely to be postponed.

Fecitt, David v BMW of Fort Myers, et al.

Plaintiff purchased a 1999 BMW 323IA from a non-Sonic dealership. BMW of Fort Myers performed some
service work on the vehicle and sent some of its wheels to a third party vendor for servicing.
Plaintiff was involved in a single car accident after experiencing a tire tread separation.
Plaintiff is now a quadriplegic who occasionally needs to breathe with a ventilator. Defendants
include the tire manufacturer, the service shop who performed the work at BMW of Fort Myers’
request, the garage that sold and installed two tires for Plaintiff, an insurance company and a
salvaged vehicle storage company. Discovery is continuing. Certain insurance is available with a
$750,000 deductible.

NORTH CAROLINA

Robert Price et al. v. APCO et al.

This lawsuit has been filed as a purported class action against Automobile Protection Corporation
(“APCO”), Sonic Automotive, Inc., and three South Carolina dealership subsidiaries

Schedule 5.06 — Page 2

 

of Sonic. Plaintiffs contend that the dealerships violated the North Carolina deceptive trade
practices act in the manner in which Etch was sold, and that Etch was sold as an unlicensed
insurance product. The complaint seeks the certification of alternative classes. One class, the
“North Carolina Class” purports to be a class of all North Carolina residents who purchased a
vehicle from a Sonic dealership in which the purchase included Etch. The “Nationwide class”
purports to be a class of all customers who “purchased or leased a vehicle through a Sonic dealer
in any state, with the exception of New York, Florida, and Hawaii (or any other state in which APCO
and/or the Company are properly licensed to sell the Etch product)” in which the purchase included
Etch.

The parties have agreed to submit this matter to arbitration. This matter has been consolidated
with the Owens (below, South Carolina) case and heard by the same arbitrator. The
arbitrator is currently considering Plaintiffs’ Motion for Class Certification, although no ruling
on class certification has been made to date.

SOUTH CAROLINA

Herron, et al. v. Century BMW, et al.

Adams, et al. v. Action Ford, et al.

Herron was the first case filed by six individuals, asserting claims against almost every
automotive dealership in South Carolina. Plaintiffs allege all South Carolina automotive dealers
conspired together in a common scheme to deceive all car buyers by presenting car prices in a
manner designed to mislead. The claim is that charging customers an administrative fee was
improper and that the amount of the administrative fees was excessive. Plaintiffs dismissed all
but six dealerships in Herron. Century BMW, a Sonic dealership, is one of the remaining
Defendants. Sonic’s dealership moved to compel arbitration in Herron and the court denied the
motion. We have appealed and the matter is currently set to be argued before the SC Supreme Court
on January 20, 2010.

Adams was a subsequent filing by the same attorneys, and in that action there is a unique Plaintiff
for each Defendant. It asserts the same claims, and several of Sonic’s South Carolina dealerships
have been named in this case. As to the Sonic dealerships, the case has been stayed pending the
outcome of the appeal on the issue of arbitration in Herron.

Owens, Misty, et al. vs. Sonic Automotive, Inc., et al.

Purported class action complaint wherein Plaintiffs allege that Sonic-owned dealerships deceptively
marketed and sold the Etch product as a “warranty”, and “stuffed” or “packed” the product into
vehicle sales transactions at exorbitant and unconscionable prices without informing the consumer
they were paying for Etch. Plaintiffs allege breach of contract, unjust enrichment, and civil
conspiracy. The matter has been consolidated with the Price (above, North Carolina) case
and is being heard by the same arbitrator. The arbitrator is currently considering Plaintiffs’
Motion for Class Certification, although no ruling on class certification has been made to
date.

NOTE

     January 15, 2010

     FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned (the “Company”) hereby promises to pay to BANK OF
AMERICA, N.A. or registered assigns (the “Lender”), in accordance with the provisions of
the Credit Agreement (as hereinafter defined), the principal amount of each Loan from time to time
made by the Lender to the Company under that certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated
as of January 15, 2010 (as amended, restated, extended, supplemented or otherwise modified in
writing from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”, the terms defined therein being used
herein as therein defined), among the Company, the Lenders from time to time party thereto, Bank of
America, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and an L/C Issuer, and Wells Fargo Bank,
National Association, as an L/C Issuer.

     The Company promises to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan from the date
of such Loan until such principal amount is paid in full, at such interest rates and at such times
as provided in the Credit Agreement. Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.04(f) of
the Credit Agreement with respect to Swing Line Loans, all payments of principal and interest shall
be made to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lender in Dollars in immediately
available funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office. If any amount is not paid in full when due
hereunder, such unpaid amount shall bear interest, to be paid upon demand, from the due date
thereof until the date of actual payment (and before as well as after judgment) computed at the per
annum rate set forth in the Credit Agreement.

     This Note is one of the Notes referred to in the Credit Agreement, is entitled to the benefits
thereof and may be prepaid in whole or in part subject to the terms and conditions provided
therein. This Note is also entitled to the benefits of the Subsidiary Guaranty and is secured by
the Collateral. Upon the occurrence and continuation of one or more of the Events of Default
specified in the Credit Agreement, all amounts then remaining unpaid on this Note shall (if
required by the Credit Agreement) become, or may be declared to be, immediately due and payable all
as provided in the Credit Agreement. Loans made by the Lender shall be evidenced by one or more
loan accounts or records maintained by the Lender in the ordinary course of business. The Lender
may also attach schedules to this Note and endorse thereon the date, amount and maturity of its
Loans and payments with respect thereto.

     The Borrower, for itself, its successors and assigns, hereby waives diligence, presentment,
protest and demand and notice of protest, demand, dishonor and non-payment of this Note.
