Pursuant to
the Merger Agreement (as this and other capitalized terms used in these
preliminary statements are defined in Section 1.01 below), Reaction
Acquisition Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”) shall be merged with and into DJO Incorporated, a Delaware

ARTICLE II

 

The Commitments and Credit Extensions

 

SECTION 2.01. The
Loans. (a)    The Term Borrowings. (i) Subject to the
terms and conditions set forth herein, each Term Lender severally agrees to
make to the Company a single loan in an amount equal to such Term Lender’s Term
Commitment on the Closing Date. Amounts borrowed under this
Section 2.01(a) and repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed. Term Loans
may be Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Rate Loans, as further provided herein.

 

(ii) The Term Loans shall be funded by each Term Lender to the Company
on the Closing Date at a 1.0% discount; accordingly, the amount of Term Loans
funded by each Term Lender to the Company on the Closing Date shall be in an
amount equal to 99.0% of the stated principal amount of such Term Loans.

 

52

 

(b)  The
Revolving Credit Borrowings. Subject to the terms and conditions set
forth herein each Revolving Credit Lender severally agrees to make loans to the
Company (each such loan, a “Revolving Credit
Loan”) from time to time, on any Business Day until the Maturity
Date with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility, in an aggregate principal
amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount of such Lender’s
Revolving Credit Commitment; provided that
after giving effect to any Revolving Credit Borrowing, the aggregate
Outstanding Amount of the Revolving Credit Loans of any Lender, plus such
Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations, plus
such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of all Swing Line Loans
shall not exceed such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment. Within the limits
of each Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment, and subject to the other terms
and conditions hereof, the Company may borrow under this Section 2.01(b),
prepay under Section 2.05, and reborrow under this Section 2.01(b). Revolving
Credit Loans may be Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Rate Loans, as further
provided herein.

 

SECTION 2.02. Borrowings,
Conversions and Continuations of Loans. (a) 
Each Term Borrowing, each Revolving Credit Borrowing, each conversion of
Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans from one Type to the other, and each
continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be made upon the Company’s
irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, which may be given by telephone.
Each such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than
11:00 a.m. (i) three (3) Business Days prior to the requested date of any
Borrowing of, or continuation of, Eurodollar Rate Loans or any conversion of
Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans, and (ii) one (1) Business Day
before the requested borrowing date of Base Rate Loans or conversion of any
Eurodollar Loan to Base Rate Loans. Each telephonic notice by the Company
pursuant to this Section 2.02(a) must be confirmed promptly by delivery to
the Administrative Agent of a written Loan Notice, appropriately completed and
signed by a Responsible Officer of the Company. Each Borrowing of, conversion
to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of
$1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof. Except as
provided in Sections 2.03(c) and 2.04(c), each Borrowing of or conversion
to Base Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole
multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof. Each Loan Notice (whether telephonic or
written) shall specify (i) whether the Company is requesting a Term Borrowing,
a Revolving Credit Borrowing, a conversion of Term Loans or Revolving Credit
Loans from one Type to the other, or a continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans,
(ii) the requested date of the Borrowing, conversion or continuation, as
the case may be (which shall be a Business Day), (iii) the principal
amount of Loans to be borrowed, converted or continued, (iv) the Type of
Loans to be borrowed or to which existing Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans
are to be converted, (v) the number and location of the account to which funds
are to be disbursed and (vi) if applicable, the duration of the Interest
Period with respect thereto. If the Company fails to specify a Type of Loan in
a Loan Notice or fails to give a timely notice requesting a conversion or
continuation, then the applicable Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans shall be
made as, or converted to, Base Rate Loans. Any such automatic conversion to Base
Rate Loans shall be effective as of the last day of the Interest Period then in
effect with respect to the applicable Eurodollar Rate Loans. If the Company
requests a Borrowing of, conversion to, or continuation of Eurodollar Rate
Loans in any 

 

53

 

such Loan Notice, but fails to specify an
Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one
(1) month.

 

(b)  Following receipt of a Loan Notice, the
Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the amount of its Pro
Rata Share of the applicable Class of Loans, and if no timely notice of a
conversion or continuation is provided by the Company, the Administrative Agent
shall notify each Lender of the details of any automatic conversion to Base
Rate Loans or continuation described in Section 2.02(a). In the case of
each Borrowing, each Appropriate Lender shall make the amount of its Loan
available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the
Administrative Agent’s Office not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day
specified in the applicable Loan Notice. Upon satisfaction of the applicable
conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (and, if such Borrowing is the
initial Credit Extension, Section 4.01), the Administrative Agent shall
make all funds so received available to the Company in like funds as received
by the Administrative Agent by wire transfer of such funds in accordance with
instructions provided to (and reasonably acceptable to) the Administrative
Agent by the Company.

 

(c)  Except as otherwise provided herein, a
Eurodollar Rate Loan may be continued or converted only on the last day of an
Interest Period for such Eurodollar Rate Loan unless the Company pays the
amount due, if any, under Section 3.05 in connection therewith. During the
existence of an Event of Default, the Required Lenders may require that no
Loans be converted to or continued as Eurodollar Rate Loans.

 

(d)  The Administrative Agent shall promptly
notify the Company and the Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any
Interest Period for Eurodollar Rate Loans upon determination of such interest
rate. The determination of the Eurodollar Rate by the Administrative Agent
shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. At any time that Base
Rate Loans are outstanding, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Company
and the Lenders of any change in the Prime Rate used in determining the Base
Rate promptly following the announcement of such change. All computations of
interest hereunder shall be made in accordance with Section 2.08 and
Section 2.10 hereunder

 

(e)  After giving effect to all Term Borrowings,
all Revolving Credit Borrowings, all conversions of Term Loans or Revolving
Credit Loans from one Type to the other, and all continuations of Term Loans or
Revolving Credit Loans as the same Type, there shall not be more than fifteen
(15) Interest Periods in effect.

 

(f)  The failure of any Lender to make the Loan to
be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of
its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Loan on the date of such
Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other
Lender to make the Loan to be made by such other Lender on the date of any
Borrowing.

 

(g)  Unless the Administrative Agent shall have
received notice from a Lender prior to the date of any Borrowing that such
Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s
portion of such Borrowing, the Administrative 

 

54

 

Agent may, with the Company’s consent, assume
that such Lender has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on
the date of such Borrowing in accordance with paragraph (b) above, and the
Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to
the Company on such date a corresponding amount. If the Administrative Agent
shall have so made funds available, then, to the extent that such Lender shall
not have made such portion available to the Administrative Agent, each of such
Lender and the Company severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent
forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon,
for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Company until
the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at (i) in the case
of the Company, the interest rate applicable at the time to the Loans
comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of 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. A certificate
of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts
owing under this Section 2.02(g) shall be conclusive in the absence of
manifest error. If such Lender’s portion of such Borrowing is not made
available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three Business Days
after such the date of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall also be
entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon accruing from the date on
which the Administrative Agent made the funds available to the Company at the
rate per annum applicable to Base Rate Loans under the relevant Facility, on
demand, from the Company. If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative
Agent such corresponding amount, such amount shall constitute such Lender’s
Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement, and the Company’s
obligation to repay the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount pursuant
to this Section 2.02(g) shall cease.

 

SECTION 2.03. Letters
of Credit. (a)  The Letter of Credit Commitment. (i) On

Letters of Credit under this Agreement and for purposes hereof will be deemed
to have been issued on the Closing Date.

Issuer agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the other Revolving Credit

Business Day during the period from the Closing Date until the date that is
five (5) days prior to the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, to issue Letters
of Credit denominated in Dollars for the account of the Company (provided, that a Letter of Credit may be issued hereunder at
the request of the Company for the account of any Subsidiary of the Company and
such Letter of Credit shall be deemed for all purposes hereunder to be for the
account of the Company) and to amend or renew Letters of Credit previously
issued by it, in accordance with Section 2.03(b), and (2) to honor drafts
under the Letters of Credit and (B) the Revolving Credit Lenders severally
agree to participate in Letters of Credit issued pursuant to this
Section 2.03; provided that no L/C Issuer
shall be obligated to make any L/C Credit Extension with respect to any Letter
of Credit, and no Lender shall be obligated to participate in any Letter of
Credit if as of the date of such L/C Credit Extension, (y) the Revolving Credit
Exposure of any Lender would exceed such 

 

55

 

Lender’s
Revolving Credit Commitment or (z) the Outstanding Amount of the L/C
Obligations would exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit. 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.

 

(iii) An L/C Issuer shall be under no 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 directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental
Authority with jurisdiction over such L/C Issuer shall prohibit, or direct that
such 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
(for which the L/C Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder);

 

(B) 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 renewal, unless the Required Lenders have approved such
expiry date;

 

(C) the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur
after the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, unless the relevant L/C Issuer has
approved such expiry date, but so long as the Revolving Credit Lenders are no
longer obligated to reimburse the relevant L/C Issuer beyond such date unless
all Revolving Lenders have approved such expiry date;

 

(D) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate any Laws
binding upon the L/C Issuer; or

 

(E) such Letter of Credit is in an initial amount less than $100,000.

 

(iv) An L/C Issuer shall be under no 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.

 

56

 

(v) 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 any Letter of Credit
Application (and any other document, agreement or instrument entered into by
such L/C Issuer and the Company or in favor of such L/C Issuer) pertaining to such
Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent” as used in
Article IX included such 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-Renewal 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 an 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 the relevant L/C Issuer and
the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. at least two (2) Business
Days prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may
be; or, in each case, such later date and time as relevant L/C Issuer may agree
in a particular instance in its sole discretion. 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 reasonably satisfactory to the relevant 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 the relevant L/C Issuer may
reasonably request. 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 reasonably satisfactory to the relevant L/C Issuer (1) the
Letter of Credit to be amended; (2) the proposed date of amendment thereof
(which shall be a Business Day); (3) the nature of the proposed amendment; and
(4) such other matters as the relevant L/C Issuer may reasonably request.

 

(ii) Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, the
relevant 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 from the Company and, if not, such L/C Issuer will provide
the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Upon receipt by the relevant L/C
Issuer of confirmation from the Administrative Agent that the requested issuance
or amendment is permitted in accordance with the terms hereof, 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 enter into the
applicable amendment, as the case may be. Immediately upon the issuance of each
Letter of Credit, each Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the relevant L/C
Issuer a risk 

 

57

 

participation
in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Pro
Rata Share times the amount of such Letter of Credit.

 

(iii) If the Company so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit
Application, the relevant L/C Issuer shall agree to issue a Letter of Credit
that has automatic renewal provisions (each, an “Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit”); provided that any such Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit must
permit the relevant L/C Issuer to prevent any such renewal 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 “Nonrenewal 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 relevant L/C Issuer, the
Company shall not be required to make a specific request to the relevant L/C
Issuer for any such renewal. Once an Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit has been
issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require)
the relevant L/C Issuer to permit the renewal of such Letter of Credit at any
time to an expiry date not later than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date; provided that the relevant L/C Issuer
shall not permit any such renewal if (A) the relevant L/C Issuer has determined
that it would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in
its renewed form under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of Section 2.03(a)(ii)
or otherwise), or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or
in writing) on or before the day that is five (5) Business Days before the
Nonrenewal Notice Date from the Administrative Agent, any Revolving Credit Lender
or the Company that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in
Section 4.02 is not then satisfied.

 

(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 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 relevant L/C Issuer shall notify promptly the
Company and the Administrative Agent thereof. On the Business Day following the
date on which the Company shall have received notice of any payment by an L/C
Issuer under a Letter of Credit (or, if the Company shall have received such
notice later than 10:00 a.m. on any Business Day, on the second Business Day
following the receipt of such notice) (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; provided that
if such reimbursement is not made on the respective date of payment by the L/C
Issuer, the Company shall pay interest on such amount at a rate per annum equal
to the Applicable Rate then in effect in respect of Base Rate Loans from the
date of such payment until such Business Day. If the Company fails to so
reimburse such L/C Issuer by such time, unless the Company shall have notified
the Administrative Agent and the relevant L/C Issuer prior to 11:00 a.m. on the
Honor Date that the Company intends to reimburse the L/C Issuer for the amount
of the unreimbursed drawing (the “Unreimbursed
Amount”) 

 

58

 

with funds other than proceeds of Revolving
Credit Loans, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Appropriate
Lender of the Honor Date, the Unreimbursed Amount, and the amount of such
Appropriate Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof. In such event, the Company shall
be deemed to have requested a Revolving Credit 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 Revolving Credit Commitments of the Appropriate
Lenders and the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (other than the delivery
of a Loan Notice). Any notice given by an 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 Appropriate Lender (including any Lender acting as an L/C
Issuer) shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) make funds
available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant L/C
Issuer at the Administrative Agent’s Office for payments in an amount equal to
its Pro Rata Share of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 1:00 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 Appropriate Lender
that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Loan to
the Company in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so
received to the relevant L/C Issuer.

 

(iii) With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully
refinanced by a Revolving Credit 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 relevant 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
Appropriate Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the
relevant 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.

 

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

 

(v) Each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit
Loans or L/C Advances to reimburse an 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 

 

59

 

setoff,
counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have
against the relevant 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 that
each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit 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 Loan Notice ). No
making of an L/C Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of
the Company to reimburse the relevant 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 Revolving Credit Lender fails to make available to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant 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), 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 relevant L/C Issuer submitted to any Revolving Credit Lender (through
the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this
Section 2.03(c)(vi) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 

(d)  Repayment
of Participations. (i) If, at any time after an L/C Issuer has
made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any Revolving
Credit Lender such Lender’s L/C Advance in respect of such payment in
accordance with Section 2.03(c), 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 Pro Rata
Share 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 an L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) is required to be
returned under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.06
(including pursuant to any settlement entered into by such L/C Issuer in its
discretion), each Appropriate Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent for
the account of such L/C Issuer its Pro Rata Share 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.

 

60

 

(e)  Obligations
Absolute. The obligation of the Company to reimburse the relevant
L/C Issuer for each drawing under each Letter of Credit issued by it 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 agreement or instrument relating thereto;

 

(ii) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, setoff, defense or other
right that any Loan Party 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 relevant 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 relevant 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 the relevant
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;

 

(v) any exchange, release or nonperfection of any Collateral, or any
release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from the Guaranty or
any other guarantee, for all or any of the Obligations of any Loan Party in
respect of such Letter of Credit; or

 

(vi) 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, any Loan Party;

 

provided that the foregoing shall not excuse
any L/C Issuer from liability to the Company to the extent of any direct damages
(as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are waived by
the Company to the extent permitted by applicable Law) suffered by the Company
that are caused by such L/C Issuer’s gross negligence or willful misconduct
when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of
Credit comply with the terms thereof.

 

61

 

(f)  Role of
L/C Issuers. Each Lender and the Company agree that, in paying any
drawing under a Letter of Credit, the relevant 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 L/C Issuers,
any Agent-Related Person nor any of the respective correspondents, participants
or assignees of any 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 Letter of Credit Application. 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 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 L/C Issuers, any Agent-Related Person, nor any
of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of any L/C Issuer,
shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (i)
through (vi) of Section 2.03(e);
provided that anything in such clauses to the contrary
notwithstanding, the Company may have a claim against an 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 or grossly
negligent 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, each 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 no L/C Issuer
shall 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)  Cash
Collateral. (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 and the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 to a Revolving
Credit Borrowing cannot then be met, (ii) if, as of the Letter of Credit
Expiration Date, any Letter of Credit may for any reason remain outstanding and
partially or wholly undrawn, (iii) if any Event of Default occurs and is
continuing and the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, as applicable,
require the Company to Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations pursuant to
Section 8.02(c) or (iv) an Event of Default set forth under
Section 8.01(f) or (g) occurs and is continuing, then the Company shall
Cash Collateralize the then Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations (in an
amount equal to such Outstanding Amount determined as of the date of such L/C
Borrowing or the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, as the case may be), and
shall do so not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on (x) in the case of
the immediately preceding clauses (i) through (iii), (1) the 

 

62

 

Business Day that the Company receives notice
thereof, if such notice is received on such day prior to 12:00 noon, New York
City time, or (2) if clause (1) above does not apply, the Business Day
immediately following the day that the Company receives such notice and (y) in
the case of the immediately preceding clause (iv), the Business Day on
which an Event of Default set forth under Section 8.01(f) or (g) occurs
or, if such day is not a Business Day, the Business Day immediately succeeding
such day. For purposes hereof, “Cash
Collateralize” means to pledge and deposit with or deliver to the
Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the relevant L/C Issuer and the
Lenders, as collateral for the L/C Obligations, cash or deposit account
balances (“Cash Collateral”)
pursuant to documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent and the relevant L/C Issuer (which documents are hereby
consented to by the Lenders). Derivatives of such term have corresponding
meanings. The Company hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the
benefit of the L/C Issuers and the Lenders, a security interest in all such
cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein and all proceeds of the foregoing.
Cash Collateral shall be maintained in a Cash Collateral Account and may be
invested in readily available Cash Equivalents. If at any time the
Administrative Agent determines that any funds held as Cash Collateral are
subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent
(on behalf of the Secured Parties) or that the total amount of such funds is
less than the aggregate Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations, the Company
will, forthwith upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay to the
Administrative Agent, as additional funds to be deposited and held in the Cash
Collateral Account, an amount equal to the excess of (a) such aggregate
Outstanding Amount over (b) the total amount of funds, if any, then held as
Cash Collateral that the Administrative Agent reasonably determines to be free
and clear of any such right and claim. Upon the drawing of any Letter of Credit
for which funds are on deposit as Cash Collateral, such funds shall be applied,
to the extent permitted under applicable Law, to reimburse the relevant L/C
Issuer. To the extent the amount of any Cash Collateral exceeds the then
Outstanding Amount of such L/C Obligations and so long as no Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing, the excess shall be refunded to the Company.

 

(h)  Letter of
Credit Fees. The Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent for
the account of each Revolving Credit Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata
Share a Letter of Credit fee for each Letter of Credit issued pursuant to this
Agreement equal to the Applicable Rate times the daily maximum amount then
available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit (whether or not such maximum
amount is then in effect under such Letter of Credit if such maximum amount
increases periodically pursuant to the terms of such Letter of Credit). Such
Letter of Credit fees shall be computed on a quarterly basis in arrears. Such
Letter of Credit fees shall be due and payable on the last Business Day 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. If there is any change in the
Applicable Rate during any quarter, the daily maximum amount of 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.

 

(i)  Fronting
Fee and Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to L/C Issuer. The
Company shall pay directly to each L/C Issuer for its own account a 

 

63

 

fronting fee with respect to each Letter of
Credit issued by it equal to 0.125% per annum (or such other amount as is
agreed in a separate writing between the relevant L/C Issuer and the Company)
of the daily maximum amount then available to be drawn under such Letter of
Credit (whether or not such maximum amount is then in effect under such Letter
of Credit if such maximum amount increases periodically pursuant to the terms
of such Letter of Credit). Such fronting fees shall be computed on a quarterly
basis in arrears. Such fronting fees shall be due and payable on the last
Business Day 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. 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 within ten (10) Business Days of demand and are nonrefundable.

 

(j)  Conflict
with Letter of Credit Application. Notwithstanding anything else to
the contrary in this Agreement, in the event of any conflict between the terms
hereof and the terms of any Letter of Credit Application, the terms hereof
shall control.

 

(k)  Reporting.
Each L/C Issuer will report in writing to the Administrative Agent (i) on the
first Business Day of each calendar month, the aggregate face amount of Letters
of Credit issued by it and outstanding as of the last Business Day of the
preceding calendar month (and on such other dates as the Administrative Agent
may request), (ii) on or prior to each Business Day on which such L/C
Issuer expects to issue, amend, renew or extend any Letter of Credit, the date
of such issuance or amendment, and the aggregate face amount of Letters of
Credit to be issued, amended, renewed or extended by it and outstanding after
giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (and such L/C
Issuer shall advise the Administrative Agent on such Business Day whether such
issuance, amendment, renewal or extension occurred and whether the amount
thereof changed), (iii) on each Business Day on which such L/C Issuer
makes any L/C Disbursement, the date and amount of such L/C Disbursement and
(iv) on any Business Day on which the Company fails to reimburse an L/C
Disbursement required to be reimbursed to such L/C Issuer on such day, the date
and amount of such failure.

 

(l)  Addition
of an L/C Issuer. A Revolving Credit Lender or an Affiliate thereof
may become an additional L/C Issuer hereunder pursuant to a written agreement
among the Company, the Administrative Agent and such Revolving Credit Lender. The
Administrative Agent shall notify the Revolving Credit Lenders of any such
additional L/C Issuer.

 

(m)  Letter of
Credit Amounts. Unless otherwise specified herein, the amount of a
Letter of Credit at any time shall be deemed to be the stated amount of such
Letter of Credit in effect at such time;
provided, however,
that with respect to any Letter of Credit that, by its terms or the terms of
any document related thereto, provides for one or more automatic increases in
the stated amount thereof, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be deemed
to be the maximum stated amount of such Letter of Credit after 

 

64

 

giving effect to all such increases, whether
or not such maximum stated amount is in effect at such time.

 

SECTION 2.04. Swing
Line Loans. (a)  The Swing Line. Subject to the terms and
conditions set forth herein, the Swing Line Lender agrees to make loans (each
such loan, a “Swing Line Loan”) to
the Company from time to time on any Business Day (other than the Closing Date)
until the Maturity Date in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility 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 Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of Revolving
Credit Loans and L/C Obligations of the Lender acting as Swing Line Lender, may
exceed the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment; provided that, after giving effect to any
Swing Line Loan, the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Revolving Credit Loans
of any Lender, plus such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of
all L/C Obligations, plus such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding
Amount of all Swing Line Loans shall not exceed such Lender’s Revolving Credit
Commitment then in effect; 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 shall be a Base
Rate Loan. Immediately upon the making of a Swing Line Loan, each Revolving
Credit Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally
agrees to, purchase from the Swing Line Lender a risk participation in such
Swing Line Loan in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Pro Rata
Share times the amount of such Swing Line Loan.

 

(b)  Borrowing
Procedures. Each Swing Line Borrowing shall be made upon the Company’s
irrevocable notice to the Swing Line Lender with a copy to the Administrative
Agent, which may be given by telephone. Each such notice must be received by
the Swing Line Lender with a copy to the Administrative Agent not later than
1:00 p.m. on the requested borrowing date, and shall specify (i) the amount to
be borrowed, which shall be a minimum of $100,000 (and any amount in excess of
$100,000 shall be an integral multiple of $25,000), and (ii) the requested
borrowing date, which shall be a Business Day. Each such telephonic notice must
be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Swing Line Lender with a copy to 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 Revolving Credit 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 first proviso to the first sentence of
Section 2.04(a), or (B) that one or more of the applicable conditions
specified in Section 4.02 is not then satisfied, then, subject to the
terms and conditions hereof, the 

 

65

 

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.

 

(c)  Refinancing
of Swing Line Loans. (i) The Swing Line Lender at any time in
its sole and absolute discretion may request, on behalf of the Company (which
hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swing Line Lender to so request on its
behalf), that each Revolving Credit Lender make a Base Rate Loan in an amount
equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share 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 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 Base Rate Loans, but subject to
the unutilized portion of the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments and the
conditions set forth in Section 4.02. The Swing Line Lender shall furnish
the Company with a copy of the applicable Loan Notice promptly after delivering
such notice to the Administrative Agent. Each Revolving Credit Lender shall
make an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the amount specified in such Loan
Notice available 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 Loan Notice, whereupon,
subject to Section 2.04(c)(ii), each Revolving Credit Lender that so makes
funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate 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 Revolving Credit Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.04(c)(i), the
request for Base Rate Loans submitted by the Swing Line Lender as set forth
herein shall be deemed to be a request by the Swing Line Lender that each of the
Revolving Credit Lenders fund its risk participation in the relevant Swing Line
Loan and each Revolving Credit Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for
the account of the Swing Line Lender pursuant to Section 2.04(c)(i) shall
be deemed payment in respect of such participation.

 

(iii) If any Revolving Credit Lender fails to make available to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender any amount
required to be paid by such 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.

 

66

 

(iv) Each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit
Loans or to purchase and fund risk participations in Swing Line Loans pursuant
to this Section 2.04(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 that each Revolving Credit
Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit 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 Revolving Credit
Lender has purchased and funded a risk participation in a Swing Line Loan, if
the Swing Line Lender receives any payment on account of such Swing Line Loan,
the Swing Line Lender will distribute to such Lender its Pro Rata Share 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 10.06 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the
Swing Line Lender in its discretion), each Revolving Credit Lender shall pay to
the Swing Line Lender its Pro Rata Share 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.

 

(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 Revolving Credit Lender funds its Base Rate Loan or risk participation
pursuant to this Section 2.04 to refinance such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of
any Swing Line Loan, interest in respect of such Pro Rata Share 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.

 

SECTION 2.05. Prepayments.
(a)    Optional. (i) The Company
may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, at any time or from time to time
voluntarily prepay Term Loans and Revolving Credit Loans in whole or in part
without premium or penalty; provided that
(1) such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not 

 

67

 

later than 11:00 a.m. (A) three (3) Business
Days prior to any date of prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans and (B) one
(1) Business Day prior to any date of prepayment of Base Rate Loans; (2) any
prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of
$1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof; and (3) any
prepayment of Base Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $1,000,000 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 Class(es) and Type(s) of
Loans to be prepaid. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each
Appropriate Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of
such Lender’s Pro Rata Share 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.
Any prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be accompanied by all accrued
interest thereon, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05.
Each prepayment of the Loans pursuant to this Section 2.05(a) shall be
paid to the Appropriate Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata
Shares. Each prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.05(a)(i) shall be
applied to the Class or Classes of Loans in such manner and in such order as
the Company may determine.

 

(ii) 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 (1) 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 (2) any such prepayment shall be
in a minimum principal amount of $100,000 or a whole multiple of $25,000 in
excess thereof or, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then
outstanding. 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.

 

(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, the Company may rescind any notice of prepayment under
Section 2.05(a)(i)or 2.05(a)(ii) if such prepayment would have resulted
from a refinancing of all of the Facilities, which refinancing shall not be
consummated or shall otherwise be delayed.

 

(b)  Mandatory. (i) Within five (5) Business
Days after financial statements have been delivered pursuant to
Section 6.01(a) and the related Compliance Certificate has been delivered

amount of Term Loans in an amount equal to (A) 50% of Excess Cash Flow, if any,
for the fiscal year covered by such financial statements (commencing with the
fiscal year ended December 31, 2008) minus (B) the sum of (i) all
voluntary prepayments of Term Loans during such fiscal year and (ii) all
voluntary prepayments of Revolving Credit Loans during such fiscal year to the
extent the Revolving Credit Commitments are permanently reduced by the amount
of such payments, in the case of each of the

immediately preceding clauses (i) and (ii),
to the extent such prepayments are not funded with the proceeds of
Indebtedness; provided that the
percentage of Excess Cash Flow specified in clause (A) shall be reduced in
respect of a fiscal year to an amount equal to 25% of Excess Cash Flow, if any,
if the Total Leverage Ratio as of the last day of such fiscal year covered by
such financial statements was less than 5.0:1.0 and greater than or equal to
4.0:1.0; 
provided, further, 
that no payment of any Loans shall be required under this
Section 2.05(b)(i) in respect of a fiscal year if the Total Leverage Ratio
as of the last day of such fiscal year covered by such financial statements was
less than 4.0:1.0.

 

(ii) (A)  If (x) the Company or
any of Restricted Subsidiary Disposes of any property or assets (other than any
Disposition of any property or assets permitted by Section 7.05(a), (b),
(c), (d), (e), (g), (h), (i), (n) or (o)) or (y) any Casualty Event
occurs, which in the aggregate results in the realization or receipt by the
Company or such Restricted Subsidiary of Net Cash Proceeds, the Company shall
cause to be offered to be prepaid in accordance with clause (viii) below
on or prior to the date which is ten (10) Business Days after the date of the
realization or receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds an aggregate principal amount
of Term Loans in an amount equal to 100% of all Net Cash Proceeds received; provided that no such prepayment shall be
required pursuant to this Section 2.05(b)(ii)(A) with respect to such
portion of such Net Cash Proceeds that the Company shall have, on or prior to
such date, given written notice to the Administrative Agent of its intent to
reinvest in accordance with Section 2.05(b)(ii)(B) (which notice may only
be provided if no Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing);

 

(B) With respect to any Net Cash Proceeds realized or received with
respect to any Disposition (other than any Disposition specifically excluded
from the application of Section 2.05(b)(ii)(A)) or any Casualty Event, at
the option of the Company, the Company may reinvest all or any portion of such
Net Cash Proceeds in assets useful for its business within (x) fifteen (15)
months following receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds or (y) if the Company enters
into a legally binding commitment to reinvest such Net Cash Proceeds within
fifteen (15) months following receipt thereof, within the later of (1) one
hundred and eighty (180) days of the date of such legally binding commitment
and (2) fifteen (15) months following receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds; provided 
that (i) so long as an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, the Company (x) shall not be permitted to make any such reinvestments
(other than pursuant to a legally binding commitment that the Company entered
into at a time when no Event of Default is continuing) and (y) shall not be
required to apply such Net Cash Proceeds which have been previously applied to
prepay Revolving Credit Loans to the prepayment of Term Loans until such time
as the relevant investment period has expired and no Event of Default is
continuing and (ii) if any Net Cash Proceeds are not so reinvested by the
deadline specified above or if any such Net Cash Proceeds are no longer
intended to be or cannot be so reinvested at any time after delivery of a
notice of reinvestment election, an amount equal to any such Net Cash 

 

69

 

Proceeds shall
be offered to be applied in accordance with clause (viii) below within
five (5) Business Days after such deadline or the date the Company reasonably
determines that such Net Cash Proceeds are no longer intended to be or cannot
be so reinvested to the prepayment of the Term Loans as set forth in this
Section 2.05.

 

(iii) If the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary incurs or issues any
Indebtedness not expressly permitted to be incurred or issued pursuant to
Section 7.03, the Company shall cause to be offered to be prepaid in accordance
with clause (viii) below an aggregate principal amount of Term Loans in an
amount equal to 100% of all Net Cash Proceeds received therefrom on or prior to
the date which is five (5) Business Days after the receipt of such Net Cash
Proceeds.

 

(iv) If for any reason the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposures at any
time exceeds the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments then in effect, the
Company shall promptly prepay or cause to be promptly prepaid Revolving Credit
Loans and Swing Line Loans and/or Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations in an
aggregate amount equal to such excess;
provided that the Company shall not be required to Cash
Collateralize the L/C Obligations pursuant to this Section 2.05(b)(iv)
unless after the prepayment in full of the Revolving Credit Loans and Swing
Line Loans such aggregate Outstanding Amount exceeds the aggregate Revolving
Credit Commitments then in effect.

 

(v) (A) Each prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to this
Section 2.05(b) shall be applied in direct order of maturity to repayments
thereof required pursuant to Section 2.07(a); and (B) each such
prepayment shall be paid to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro
Rata Shares, subject to clause (vi) of this Section 2.05(b).

 

(vi) The Company shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of
any mandatory prepayment of Term Loans required to be made pursuant to clauses
(i) through (iv) of this Section 2.05(b) at least three (3) Business Days
prior to the date of such prepayment. Each such notice shall specify the date
of such prepayment and provide a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount
of such prepayment. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each
Appropriate Lender of the contents of the Company’s prepayment notice and of
such Appropriate Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the prepayment.

 

(vii) Funding Losses, Etc. All
prepayments under this Section 2.05 shall be made together with, in the
case of any such prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan on a date other than the
last day of an Interest Period therefor, any amounts owing in respect of such
Eurodollar Rate Loan pursuant to Section 3.05. Notwithstanding any of the
other provisions of Section 2.05(b), so long as no Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing, if any prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans is
required to be made under this Section 2.05(b), other than on the last day
of the Interest Period therefor, in lieu of making any payment 

 

70

 

pursuant to
this Section 2.05(b) in respect of any such Eurodollar Rate Loan, the
Company may, in its sole discretion, deposit the amount of any such prepayment
otherwise required to be made thereunder into a Cash Collateral Account until
the last day of such Interest Period, at which time the Administrative Agent
shall be authorized (without any further action by or notice to or from the
Company or any other Loan Party) to apply such amount to the prepayment of such
Loans in accordance with this Section 2.05(b). Upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall
also be authorized (without any further action by or notice to or from the
Company or any other Loan Party) to apply such amount to the prepayment of the
outstanding Loans in accordance with this Section 2.05(b).

 

(viii) Term Opt-out of Prepayment.
With respect to each prepayment of Term Loans required pursuant to
Section 2.05(b), (A) the Company will, not later than the date specified
in Sections 2.05(b)(i), (ii), or (iii) for offering to make such
prepayment, give the Administrative Agent telephonic notice (promptly confirmed
in writing) requesting that the Administrative Agent provide notice of such
prepayment to each Lender of Term Loans, (B) the Administrative Agent
shall provide notice of such prepayment to each Lender of Term Loans,
(C) each Lender of Term Loans will have the right to refuse any such
prepayment by giving written notice of such refusal to the Administrative Agent
within two Business Days after such Lender’s receipt of notice from the
Administrative Agent of such offer of prepayment (and the Company shall not
prepay any such Term Loans until the date that is specified in clause (D)
below), and (D) the Company will make all such prepayments not so refused
upon the first Business Day after the Administrative Agent has provided such
notice of prepayment and (E) any prepayment refused by Lenders of Term Loans
may be retained by the Company.

 

(ix) In connection with any mandatory prepayments by the Company of the
Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.05(b), such prepayments shall be applied
on a pro rata basis to the then outstanding Term Loans being prepaid
irrespective of whether such outstanding Term Loans are Base Rate Loans or
Eurodollar Rate Loans; provided that
if no Lenders exercise the right to waive a given mandatory prepayment of the
Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.05(b)(viii), then, with respect to such
mandatory prepayment, the amount of such mandatory prepayment shall be applied
first to Term Loans that are Base Rate Loans to the full extent thereof before
application to Term Loans that are Eurodollar Rate Loans in a manner that
minimizes the amount of any payments required to be made by the Company
pursuant to Section 3.05.

 

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this
Section 2.05(b), (i) to the extent that any of or all the Net Cash
Proceeds of any Disposition by a Foreign Subsidiary giving rise to a prepayment
event pursuant to Section 2.05(b)(ii) (a “Foreign Disposition”), the Net Cash Proceeds of any Casualty
Event from a Foreign Subsidiary (a “Foreign
Casualty Event”), or any portion of Excess Cash Flow otherwise
required to prepay the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.05(b)(i) are prohibited
or delayed by applicable local 

 

71

 

law from being repatriated to the United
States, the portion of such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected
will not be required to be applied to repay Term Loans at the times provided in
this Section 2.05(b) but may be retained by the applicable Foreign
Subsidiary so long, but only so long, as the applicable local law will not
permit repatriation to the United States (the Company hereby agreeing to cause
the applicable Foreign Subsidiary to promptly take all actions reasonably
required by the applicable local law to permit such repatriation), and once
such repatriation of any of such affected Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow
is permitted under the applicable local law, such repatriation will be
immediately effected and such repatriated Net Cash Proceeds or such portion of
Excess Cash Flow will be promptly (and in any event not later than two Business
Days after such repatriation) applied (net of additional taxes payable or
reserved against as a result thereof) to the repayment of the Term Loans
pursuant to this Section 2.05(b) to the extent provided herein, (ii) to
the extent that the Company has determined in good faith that repatriation of
any of or all the Net Cash Proceeds of any Foreign Disposition, any Foreign
Casualty Event or Excess Cash Flow would have a material adverse tax cost
consequence (taking into account any foreign tax credit or benefit received in
connection with such repatriation) with respect to such Net Cash Proceeds or
such portion of Excess Cash Flow, the Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so
affected may be retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary, provided that,
in the case of this clause (ii), on or before the date on which any Net Cash
Proceeds so retained would otherwise have been required to be applied to
reinvestments or prepayments pursuant to this Section 2.05(b) (or any
portion of such Excess Cash Flow would have been so required if it were Net
Cash Proceeds), (x) the Company applies an amount equal to such Net Cash
Proceeds or such portion of Excess Cash Flow to such reinvestments or
prepayments as if such Net Cash Proceeds or such portion of Excess Cash Flow
had been received by the Company rather than such Foreign Subsidiary, less the
amount of additional taxes that would have been payable or reserved against if
such Net Cash Proceeds or such portion of Excess Cash Flow had been repatriated
(or, if less, the Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow that would be
calculated if received by such Foreign Subsidiary) or (y) such Net Cash
Proceeds or such portion of Excess Cash Flow are applied to the repayment of
Indebtedness of a Foreign Subsidiary,

 

SECTION 2.06. Termination
or Reduction of Commitments. Optional.
(a)    The Company may, upon written
notice to the Administrative Agent, terminate the unused Commitments of any
Class, or from time to time permanently reduce the unused Commitments of any
Class; provided that (i) any such
notice shall be received by the Administrative Agent one (1) Business Day prior
to the date of termination or reduction, (ii) any such partial reduction
shall be in an aggregate amount of $1,000,000 or any whole multiple of $500,000
in excess thereof and (iii) if, after giving effect to any reduction of
the Commitments, the Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Swing Line Sublimit
exceeds the amount of the Revolving Credit Facility, such sublimit shall be
automatically reduced by the amount of such excess. The amount of any such
Commitment reduction shall not be applied to the Letter of Credit Sublimit or
the Swing Line Sublimit unless otherwise specified by the Company. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Company may rescind or postpone any notice of termination of
the Commitments if such termination would have resulted from a refinancing of
all of the Facilities, which refinancing shall not be consummated or otherwise
shall be delayed.

 

72

 

(b)  Mandatory.
The Term Commitment of each Term Lender shall be automatically and permanently
reduced to zero upon the making of such Term Lender’s Term Loans pursuant to
Section 2.01(a). The Revolving Credit Commitments shall terminate on the
Maturity Date for the Revolving Credit Facility.

 

(c)  Application
of Commitment Reductions; Payment of Fees. The Administrative Agent
will promptly notify the Lenders of any termination or reduction of unused
portions of the Letter of Credit Sublimit, the Swing Line Sublimit or the
unused Commitments of any Class under this Section 2.06. Upon any
reduction of unused Commitments of any Class, the Commitment of each Lender of
such Class shall be reduced by such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the amount by
which such Commitments are reduced (other than the termination of the
Commitment of any Lender as provided in Section 3.07). All commitment fees
accrued until the effective date of any termination of the Aggregate
Commitments shall be paid on the effective date of such termination.

 

SECTION 2.07. Repayment
of Loans. (a)    Term Loans. The Company shall repay to the
Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Term Lenders (i) on the
last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with
March 31, 2008, an aggregate amount equal to 0.25% of the aggregate
principal amount of all Term Loans outstanding on the Closing Date (which
payments shall be reduced as a result of, and after giving effect to, the
application of prepayments in accordance with the order of priority set forth
in Section 2.05) and (ii) on the Maturity Date for the Term Loans,
the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans outstanding on such date.

 

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

 

(c)  Swing Line
Loans. The Company shall repay its Swing Line Loans on the Maturity
Date for the Revolving Credit Facility.

 

SECTION 2.08. Interest.
(a)    Subject to the provisions of
Section 2.08(b), (i) each Eurodollar Rate Loan shall bear interest on the
outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Period at a rate per
annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable
Rate; (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 and (iii) each Swing Line
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 for Revolving Credit Loans.

 

(b)  The Company shall pay interest on past due
amounts hereunder at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal
to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws. Accrued
and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due
interest) shall be due and payable upon demand.

 

73

 

(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.

 

(d)  All computations of interest hereunder shall
be made in accordance with Section 2.10.

 

SECTION 2.09. Fees.
In addition to certain fees described in Sections 2.03(h) and (i):

 

(a)  Commitment Fee. The Company shall pay to the Administrative
Agent for the account of each Revolving Credit Lender in accordance with its
Pro Rata Share, a commitment fee equal to the Applicable Rate with respect to
commitment fees times the actual daily amount by which the aggregate Revolving
Credit Commitment exceeds the sum of (A) Outstanding Amount of Revolving Credit
Loans and (B) the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations; provided that any commitment fee accrued
with respect to any of the Commitments of a Defaulting Lender during the period
prior to the time such Lender became a Defaulting Lender and unpaid at such
time shall not be payable by the Company so long as such Lender shall be a
Defaulting Lender except to the extent that such commitment fee shall otherwise
have been due and payable by the Company prior to such time; and provided, further,  that no commitment fee shall accrue on any of
the Commitments of a Defaulting Lender so long as such Lender shall be a
Defaulting Lender. The commitment fee shall accrue at all times from the date
hereof until the Maturity Date for the Revolving Credit Facility, 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 last Business Day of
each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date
to occur after the Closing Date, and on the Maturity Date for the Revolving
Credit Facility. The commitment fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears,
and if there is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the
actual daily amount shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate
separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in
effect.

 

(b)  Other Fees. The Company shall pay to the Agents 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 (except as expressly agreed between the
Company and the applicable Agent).

 

SECTION 2.10. Computation
of Interest and Fees. All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans when
the Base Rate is determined by the Prime Rate shall be made on the basis of a
year of three hundred and sixty-five (365) days and actual days elapsed. All
other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a three
hundred and sixty (360) day year and actual days elapsed. Interest shall accrue
on each 

 

74

 

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 (1) 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.

 

SECTION 2.11. Evidence
of Indebtedness. (a)    The Credit
Extensions made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or
records maintained by such Lender and evidenced by one or more entries in the
Register maintained by the Administrative Agent, acting solely for purposes of
Treasury Regulation Section 5f.103-1(c), as agent for the Company, in each
case in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by
the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be prima facie evidence 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
payable to such Lender, 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 Section 2.11(a), each Lender and the Administrative Agent
shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records and,
in the case of the Administrative Agent, entries in the Register, 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.

 

(c)  Entries made in good faith by the
Administrative Agent in the Register pursuant to Sections 2.11(a) and (b),
and by each Lender in its account or accounts pursuant to Sections 2.11(a)
and (b), shall be  prima facie  evidence of the amount of principal and
interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Company to, in
the case of the Register, each Lender and, in the case of such account or
accounts, such Lender, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents,
absent manifest error; provided that
the failure of the Administrative Agent or such Lender to make an entry, or any
finding that an entry is incorrect, in the Register or such account or accounts
shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Company under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

 

75

 

SECTION 2.12. Payments
Generally. (a)    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 applicable 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
Pro Rata Share (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
payments received by the Administrative Agent after 2:00 p.m. shall be deemed
received, in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion, on the next succeeding
Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue.

 

(b)  Except as otherwise provided, 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; provided that, if such extension would
cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurodollar Rate Loans to be made
in the next succeeding calendar month, such payment shall be made on the
immediately preceding Business Day.

 

(c)  Unless the Company or any Lender has notified
the Administrative Agent, prior to the date any payment is required to be made
by it to the Administrative Agent hereunder, that the Company or such Lender,
as the case may be, will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may
assume that the Company or such Lender, as the case may be, has timely made
such payment and may (but shall not be so required to), in reliance thereon,
make available a corresponding amount to the Person entitled thereto. If and to
the extent that such payment was not in fact made to the Administrative Agent
in immediately available funds, then:

 

(i) if the Company failed to make such payment, each Lender shall
forthwith on demand repay to the Administrative Agent the portion of such
assumed payment that was made available to such Lender in immediately available
funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including
the date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to such
Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in
immediately available funds at the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in
effect; and

 

(ii) if any Lender failed to make such payment, such Lender shall
forthwith on demand pay to the Administrative Agent the amount thereof in
immediately available funds, together with interest thereon for the period from
the date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the
Company to the date such amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent (the “Compensation Period”) at a rate per annum
equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. When such Lender
makes payment to the Administrative Agent (together with all accrued interest
thereon), then such 

 

76

 

payment amount
(excluding the amount of any interest which may have accrued and been paid in
respect of such late payment) shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in
the applicable Borrowing. If such Lender does not pay such amount forthwith
upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent may
make a demand therefor upon the Company, and the Company shall pay such amount
to the Administrative Agent, together with interest thereon for the
Compensation Period at a rate per annum equal to the rate of interest
applicable to the applicable Borrowing. Nothing herein shall be deemed to
relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitment or to
prejudice any rights which the Administrative Agent or the Company may have
against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

 

A notice of
the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the Company with respect to any
amount owing under this Section 2.12(c) shall be conclusive, absent
manifest error.

 

(d)  If any Lender makes available to the
Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender 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.

 

(e)  The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to
make Loans and to fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans
are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan or to
fund any such participation 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
Loan or purchase its participation.

 

(f)  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.

 

(g)  Whenever any payment received by the
Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents is
insufficient to pay in full all amounts due and payable to the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders under or in respect of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents on any date, such payment shall be distributed by the Administrative
Agent and applied by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in the order of
priority set forth in Section 8.04. If the Administrative Agent receives
funds for application to the Obligations of the Loan Parties under or in
respect of the Loan Documents under circumstances for which the Loan Documents
do not specify the manner in which such funds are to be applied, the
Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, elect to distribute
such funds to each of the Lenders in accordance with such Lender’s Pro Rata
Share of the sum of (a) the Outstanding Amount 

 

77

 

of all Loans outstanding at such time and (b)
the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations outstanding at such time, in
repayment or prepayment of such of the outstanding Loans or other Obligations
then owing to such Lender.

 

SECTION 2.13. Sharing
of Payments. If, other than as expressly provided elsewhere herein, any
Lender shall obtain on account of the Loans made by it, or the participations
in L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans held by it, any payment (whether
voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of setoff, or
otherwise) in excess of its ratable share (or other share contemplated
hereunder) thereof, such Lender shall immediately (a) notify the
Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase from the other Lenders such
participations in the Loans made by them and/or such subparticipations in the
participations in L/C Obligations or Swing Line Loans held by them, as the case
may be, as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the
excess payment in respect of such Loans or such participations, as the case may
be, pro rata with each of them; provided
that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from
the purchasing Lender under any of the circumstances described in
Section 10.06 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the
purchasing Lender in its discretion), such purchase shall to that extent be
rescinded and each other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase
price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying Lender’s
ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such paying
Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the
purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the
purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered, without further
interest thereon. The Company agrees that any Lender so purchasing a
participation from another Lender may, to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable Law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of
setoff, but subject to Section 10.09) with respect to such participation
as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Company in the
amount of such participation. The Administrative Agent will keep records (which
shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of
participations purchased under this Section 2.13 and will in each case
notify the Lenders following any such purchases or repayments. Each Lender that
purchases a participation pursuant to this Section 2.13 shall from and
after such purchase have the right to give all notices, requests, demands,
directions and other communications under this Agreement with respect to the
portion of the Obligations purchased to the same extent as though the
purchasing Lender were the original owner of the Obligations purchased.

 

SECTION 2.14. Incremental
Credit Extensions. (a)    The Company
may at any time or from time to time after the Closing Date, by notice to the
Administrative Agent (whereupon the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver
a copy to each of the Lenders), request (a) one or more additional
tranches of term loans (the “Incremental Term
Loans”) or (b) one or more increases in the amount of the Revolving
Credit Commitments (each such increase, a “Revolving
Commitment Increase”); provided that
(i) both at the time of any such request and upon the effectiveness of any
Incremental Amendment referred to below, no Default or Event of Default shall
exist and at the time that any such Incremental Term Loan is made (and after
giving effect thereto) no Default or Event of Default shall exist and
(ii) the Company shall be in compliance with the 

 

78

 

covenant set forth in Section 7.11
determined on a Pro Forma Basis as of the last day of the most recent Test
Period ended prior to the applicable Incremental Facility Closing Date, in each
case, as if such Incremental Term Loans or Revolving Commitment Increase, as
applicable, had been outstanding on the last day of such Test Period. Each
tranche of Incremental Term Loans and each Revolving Commitment Increase shall
be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $20,000,000 (provided that such amount may be less than
$20,000,000 if such amount represents all remaining availability under the
limit set forth in the next sentence). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein, the aggregate amount of the Incremental Term Loans and the Revolving Commitment
Increases shall not exceed the greater of (i) $150,000,000 and (ii) the
additional aggregate amount of secured Indebtedness which would be permitted to
be incurred as of any date of determination (assuming for this purpose that the
full amount of any Revolving Credit Increase had been utilized as of such date)
such that, after giving Pro Forma Effect to such incurrence (and any other
transactions consummated on such date), the Senior Secured Leverage Ratio for
the immediately preceding Test Period would not be greater than 4.00 to 1.0. Each
tranche of Incremental Term Loans (a) shall rank pari passu in right of payment and of security with the
Revolving Credit Loans and the Term Loans, (b) shall not mature earlier than
the Maturity Date with respect to the Term Loans, (c) shall have a
Weighted Average Life to Maturity of no less than the Weighted Average Life to
Maturity then in effect for the Term Loans and (d) except as set forth
above, shall be treated substantially the same as the Term Loans (in each case,
including with respect to mandatory and voluntary prepayments); provided that (i) the terms and
conditions applicable to Incremental Term Loans may be materially different
from those of the Term Loans to the extent such differences are reasonably
acceptable to the Administrative Agent and (ii) the interest rates and
amortization schedule applicable to the Incremental Term Loans shall be
determined by the Company and the lenders thereof. Each notice from the Company
pursuant to this Section shall set forth the requested amount and proposed
terms of the relevant Incremental Term Loans or Revolving Commitment Increases.
Incremental Term Loans may be made, and Revolving Commitment Increases may be
provided, by any existing Lender (and each existing Term Lender will have the
right, but not an obligation, to make a portion of any Incremental Term Loan,
and each existing Revolving Credit Lender will have the right, but no
obligation, to provide a portion of any Revolving Commitment Increase, in each
case on terms permitted in this Section 2.14 and otherwise on terms
reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent) or by any other bank or
other financial institution (any such other bank or other financial institution
being called an “Additional Lender”); provided that the Administrative Agent
and each L/C Issuer (in the case of a Revolving Commitment Increase) shall have
consented (not to be unreasonably withheld) to such Lender’s or Additional
Lender’s making such Incremental Term Loans or providing such Revolving
Commitment Increases if such consent would be required under
Section 10.07(b) for an assignment of Loans or Revolving Credit
Commitments, as applicable, to such Lender or Additional Lender. Commitments in
respect of Incremental Term Loans and Revolving Commitment Increases shall
become Commitments (or in the case of a Revolving Commitment Increase to be
provided by an existing Revolving Credit Lender, an increase in such Lender’s
applicable Revolving Credit Commitment) under this Agreement pursuant to an
amendment (an “Incremental Amendment”)
to this 

 

79

 

Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan
Documents, executed by Holdings, the Company, each Lender agreeing to provide
such Commitment, if any, each Additional Lender, if any, and the Administrative
Agent. The Incremental Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders,
effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be
necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent
and the Company, to effect the provisions of this Section. The effectiveness of
(and, in the case of any Incremental Amendment for an Incremental Term Loan,
the borrowing under) any Incremental Amendment shall be subject to the
satisfaction on the date thereof (each, an “Incremental
Facility Closing Date”) of each of the conditions set forth in
Section 4.02 (it being understood that all references to “the date of such
Credit Extension” or similar language in such Section 4.02 shall be deemed
to refer to the effective date of such Incremental Amendment) and such other
conditions as the parties thereto shall agree. The Company will use the
proceeds of the Incremental Term Loans and Revolving Commitment Increases for
any purpose not prohibited by this Agreement. No Lender shall be obligated to
provide any Incremental Term Loans or Revolving Commitment Increases, unless it
so agrees. Upon each increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to
this Section, each Revolving Credit Lender immediately prior to such increase
will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assigned to each
Lender providing a portion of the Revolving Commitment Increase (each a “Revolving Commitment Increase Lender”) in
respect of such increase, and each such Revolving Commitment Increase Lender
will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assumed, a portion
of such Revolving Credit Lender’s participations hereunder in outstanding
Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans such that, after giving effect to each
such deemed assignment and assumption of participations, the percentage of the
aggregate outstanding (i) participations hereunder in Letters of Credit and
(ii) participations hereunder in Swing Line Loans held by each Revolving
Credit Lender (including each such Revolving Commitment Increase Lender) will
equal the percentage of the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments of all
Revolving Credit Lenders represented by such Revolving Credit Lender’s
Revolving Credit Commitment and (b) if, on the date of such increase, there are
any Revolving Credit Loans outstanding, such Revolving Credit Loans shall on or
prior to the effectiveness of such Revolving Commitment Increase be prepaid
from the proceeds of additional Revolving Credit Loans made hereunder
(reflecting such increase in Revolving Credit Commitments), which prepayment
shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the Revolving Credit Loans being
prepaid and any costs incurred by any Lender in accordance with Section 3.05.
The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree that the minimum
borrowing, pro rata borrowing and pro rata payment requirements contained
elsewhere in this Agreement shall not apply to the transactions effected
pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence.

 

(b)  This Section 2.14 shall supersede any
provisions in Section 2.13 or 10.01 to the contrary.

ARTICLE III

 

Taxes, Increased Costs Protection and Illegality

 

SECTION 3.01. Taxes.
(a)    Except as provided in this
Section 3.01, any and all payments by the Company (the term Company under
Article III being deemed to include any Subsidiary for whose account a Letter
of Credit is issued) to or for the account of any Agent or any Lender under any
Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and
all present or future taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments,
fees, withholdings or similar charges, and all liabilities (including additions
to tax, penalties and interest) with respect thereto, excluding, in the case of
each Agent and each Lender, taxes imposed on or measured by its net income or
overall gross income (including branch profits), and franchise (and similar)
taxes imposed on it in lieu of net income taxes, by the jurisdiction (or any
political subdivision thereof) under the Laws of which such Agent or such
Lender, as the case may be, is organized or maintains a Lending Office, and all
liabilities (including additions to tax, penalties and interest) with respect
thereto (all such non-excluded taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions,
assessments, fees, withholdings or similar charges, and liabilities being
hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”).
If the Company shall be required by any Laws to deduct any Taxes or Other Taxes
from or in respect of any sum payable under any Loan Document to any Agent or
any Lender, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after
making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional
sums payable under this Section 3.01), each of such Agent and such Lender
receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such
deductions been made, (ii) the Company shall make such deductions,
(iii) the Company shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant
taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable Laws, and
(iv) within thirty (30) days after the date of such payment (or, if
receipts or evidence are not available within thirty (30) days, as soon as
possible thereafter), the Company shall furnish to such Agent or Lender (as the
case may be) the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment
thereof to the extent such a receipt is issued therefor, or other written proof
of payment thereof that is reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
If the Company fails to pay any Taxes or Other Taxes when due to the
appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to any Agent or any Lender the
required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Company shall
indemnify such Agent and such Lender for any incremental taxes, interest or
penalties that may become payable by such Agent or such Lender arising out of
such failure.

 

(b)  In addition, the Company agrees to pay any
and all present or future stamp, court or documentary taxes and any other
excise, property, intangible or mortgage recording taxes or charges or similar
levies which arise from any payment made under any Loan Document or from the
execution, delivery, performance, enforcement or registration of, or otherwise
with respect to, any Loan Document (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

 

(c)  The Company agrees to indemnify each Agent
and each Lender for (i) the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including any
Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable
under this Section 3.01) paid by such 

 

81

 

Agent and such Lender and (ii) any
liability (including additions to tax, penalties, interest and expenses)
arising therefrom or with respect thereto, in each case whether or not such
Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the
relevant Governmental Authority; provided such
Agent or Lender, as the case may be, provides the Company with a written
statement thereof setting forth in reasonable detail the basis and calculation
of such amounts. Payment under this Section 3.01(c) shall be made within
thirty (30) days after the date such Lender or such Agent makes a demand
therefor.

 

(d)  The Company shall not be required pursuant to
this Section 3.01 to pay any additional amount to, or to indemnify, any
Lender or Agent, as the case may be, to the extent that such Lender or such
Agent becomes subject to United States withholding taxes subsequent to the
Closing Date (or, if later, the date such Lender or Agent becomes a party to
this Agreement) as a result of a change in the place of organization of such
Lender or Agent or a change in the Lending Office of such Lender, except to the
extent that any such change is requested or required in writing by the Company
(and provided that nothing in this clause (d) shall be construed as
relieving the Company from any obligation to make such payments or
indemnification with respect to United States withholding taxes in the
event of a change in Lending Office or place of organization that precedes a
change in Law to the extent such withholding taxes result from a change in
Law).

 

(e)  Notwithstanding anything else herein to the
contrary, if a Lender or an Agent is subject to United States withholding
tax at a rate in excess of zero percent at the time such Lender or such Agent,
as the case may be, first becomes a party to this Agreement, withholding tax
imposed by such jurisdiction at such rate shall be considered excluded from
Taxes unless and until such Lender or Agent, as the case may be, provides the
appropriate forms certifying that a lesser rate applies, whereupon withholding
tax at such lesser rate only shall be considered excluded from Taxes for
periods governed by such forms;  provided that, if at the date of
the Assignment and Assumption pursuant to which a Lender becomes a party to
this Agreement, the Lender assignor was entitled to payments under
clause (a) of this Section 3.01 in respect of United States
withholding tax with respect to interest paid at such date, then, to such
extent, the term Taxes shall include (in addition to withholding taxes that may
be imposed in the future or other amounts otherwise includable in Taxes) withholding
tax, if any, applicable with respect to the Lender assignee on such date.

 

(f)  If any Lender or Agent determines, in its
reasonable discretion, that it has received a refund in respect of any Taxes or
Other Taxes as to which indemnification or additional amounts have been paid to
it by the Company pursuant to this Section 3.01, it shall promptly remit
such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional
amounts paid, by the Company under this Section 3.01 with respect to the
Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund plus any interest included in
such refund by the relevant taxing authority attributable thereto) to the
Company, net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Lender or Agent, as the case
may be and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant
taxing authority with respect to such refund);
provided that the Company, upon the request of the Lender or Agent,
as the case may be, 

 

82

 

agrees promptly to return such refund to such
party in the event such party is required to repay such refund to the relevant
taxing authority. Such Lender or Agent, as the case may be, shall, at the
Company’s request, provide the Company with a copy of any notice of assessment
or other evidence of the requirement to repay such refund received from the
relevant taxing authority (provided
that such Lender or Agent may delete any information therein that such Lender
or Agent deems confidential). Nothing herein contained shall interfere with the
right of a Lender or Agent to arrange its tax affairs in whatever manner it
thinks fit nor oblige any Lender or Agent to claim any tax refund or to make
available its tax returns or disclose any information relating to its tax affairs
or any computations in respect thereof.

 

(g)  Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence
of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 3.01(a) or (c) with
respect to such Lender it will, if requested by the Company, use commercially
reasonable efforts (subject to such Lender’s overall internal policies of
general application and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate another
Lending Office for any Loan or Letter of Credit affected by such event; provided that such efforts are made on
terms that, in the sole judgment of such Lender, cause such Lender and its
Lending Office(s) to suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage; and  provided,
further,  that nothing in this
Section 3.01(g) shall affect or postpone any of the Obligations of the Company
or the rights of such Lender pursuant to Section 3.01(a) or (c).

 

SECTION 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 Eurodollar Rate Loans, or
to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate, then, on
notice thereof by such Lender to the Company through the Administrative Agent,
any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Eurodollar Rate Loans or to
convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended 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,
the Company shall upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all Eurodollar Rate
Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans, either on the last day of the Interest
Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such
Eurodollar Rate Loans to such day, or promptly, if such Lender may not lawfully
continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans. Upon any such prepayment or
conversion, the Company shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so
prepaid or converted and all amounts due, if any, in connection with such
prepayment or conversion under Section 3.05. Each Lender agrees to
designate a different Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need
for such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender,
otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender.

 

SECTION 3.03. Inability
to Determine Rates. If the Required Lenders determine that for any reason
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 that the Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest Period with
respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly
reflect the cost 

 

83

 

to such Lenders of funding such Loan, or that
Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank
eurodollar market for the applicable amount and the Interest Period of such
Eurodollar Rate Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the
Company and each Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders to make or
maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended 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, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans or,
failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for
a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein.

 

SECTION 3.04. Increased
Cost and Reduced Return; Capital Adequacy; Reserves on Eurodollar Rate Loans.
(a)  If any Lender determines that as a
result of the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any
Law, in each case after the date hereof, or such Lender’s compliance therewith,
there shall be any increase in the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make or
making, funding or maintaining Eurodollar Rate Loans or (as the case may be)
issuing or participating in Letters of Credit, or a reduction in the amount
received or receivable by such Lender in connection with any of the foregoing
(excluding for purposes of this Section 3.04(a) any such increased costs
or reduction in amount resulting from (i) Taxes or Other Taxes (as to which
Section 3.01 shall govern), (ii) changes in the basis of taxation of
overall net income or overall gross income (including branch profits), and
franchise (and similar) taxes imposed in lieu of net income taxes, by the
United States or any foreign jurisdiction or any political subdivision of
either thereof under the Laws of which such Lender is organized or maintains a
Lending Office, and (iii) reserve requirements contemplated by
Section 3.04(c)), then from time to time within fifteen (15) days after
demand by such Lender setting forth in reasonable detail such increased costs
(with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent given in accordance
with Section 3.06), the Company shall pay to such Lender such additional
amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction.

 

(b)  If any Lender determines that the
introduction of any Law regarding capital adequacy or any change therein or in
the interpretation thereof, in each case after the date hereof, or compliance
by such Lender (or its Lending Office) therewith, has the effect of reducing
the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or any corporation controlling
such Lender as a consequence of such Lender’s obligations hereunder (taking
into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy and such
Lender’s desired return on capital to a level below that which such Lender or
its parent could have achieved but for such introduction, change or
interpretation), then from time to time upon demand of such Lender setting
forth in reasonable detail the charge and the calculation of such reduced rate
of return (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent given in
accordance with Section 3.06), the Company shall pay to such Lender such
additional amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction within
fifteen (15) days after receipt of such demand.

 

(c)  The Company shall pay to each Lender, (i) as
long as such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to
liabilities or assets consisting of or 

 

84

 

including Eurodollar funds or deposits,
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 in the absence of manifest error), and (ii) as long as such
Lender shall be required to comply with any reserve ratio requirement or
analogous requirement of any other central banking or financial regulatory
authority imposed in respect of the maintenance of the Commitments or the
funding of the Eurodollar Rate Loans, such additional costs (expressed as a
percentage per annum and rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest five
decimal places) equal to the actual costs allocated to such Commitment or Loan
by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination
shall be conclusive absent manifest error) which in each case shall be due and
payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan, provided the
Company shall have received at least fifteen (15) days’ prior notice (with a
copy to the Administrative Agent) of such additional interest or cost from such
Lender. If a Lender fails to give written notice fifteen (15) days prior to the
relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest or cost shall be due
and payable fifteen (15) days from receipt of such notice.

 

(d)  Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to
demand compensation pursuant to this Section 3.04 shall not constitute a
waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation, provided that the Company shall not be
required to compensate a Lender pursuant to Section 3.04(a), (b) or
(c) for any such increased cost or reduction incurred more than one
hundred and eighty (180) days prior to the date that such Lender demands, or
notifies the Company in writing of its intention to demand, compensation
therefor; provided, further,
that, if the circumstance giving rise to such increased cost or reduction is
retroactive, then such 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to
include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

 

(e)  If any Lender requests compensation under
this Section 3.04, then such Lender will, if requested by the Company, use
commercially reasonable efforts to designate another Lending Office for any
Loan or Letter of Credit affected by such event; provided that such efforts are made on terms that, in the
reasonable judgment of such Lender, cause such Lender and its Lending Office(s)
to suffer no material economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage; and  provided,
further,  that nothing in this
Section 3.04(e) shall affect or postpone any of the Obligations of the
Company or the rights of such Lender pursuant to Section 3.04(a), (b),
(c) or (d).

 

SECTION 3.05. Funding
Losses. Upon written demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative
Agent) from time to time, the Company shall promptly compensate such Lender for
and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as
a result of:

 

(a)  any continuation,
conversion, payment or prepayment of any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on a
day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan (whether
voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise); or

 

85

 

(b)  any failure by the Company
(for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to prepay,
borrow, continue or convert any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on the date or
in the amount notified by the Company;

 

including any
loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained
by it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from
which such funds were obtained.

 

For purposes
of calculating amounts payable by the Company to the Lenders under this
Section 3.05, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Eurodollar
Rate Loan made by it at the Eurodollar Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit
or other borrowing in the London interbank eurodollar market for a comparable
amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurodollar Rate Loan
was in fact so funded.

 

SECTION 3.06. Matters
Applicable to All Requests for Compensation. (a)  Any Agent or any Lender claiming compensation
under this Article III shall deliver a certificate to the Company setting forth
the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder which shall be
conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, such
Agent or such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

 

(b)  With respect to any Lender’s claim for
compensation under Section 3.01, 3.02, 3.03 or 3.04, the Company shall not
be required to compensate such Lender for any amount incurred more than one
hundred and eighty (180) days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Company
of the event that gives rise to such claim;
provided that, if the circumstance giving rise to such claim is
retroactive, then such 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to
include the period of retroactive effect thereof. If any Lender requests
compensation by the Company under Section 3.04, the Company may, by notice
to such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), suspend the
obligation of such Lender to make or continue from one Interest Period to
another Eurodollar Rate Loans, or to convert Base Rate Loans into Eurodollar
Rate Loans, until the event or condition giving rise to such request ceases to
be in effect (in which case the provisions of Section 3.06(c) shall be
applicable); 
provided that such suspension shall not affect the right of
such Lender to receive the compensation so requested.

 

(c)  If the obligation of any Lender to make or
continue from one Interest Period to another any Eurodollar Rate Loan, or to
convert Base Rate Loans into Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended pursuant
to Section 3.06(b) hereof, such Lender’s Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be
automatically converted into Base Rate Loans on the last day(s) of the then
current Interest Period(s) for such Eurodollar Rate Loans (or, in the case of
an immediate conversion required by Section 3.02, on such earlier date as
required by Law) and, unless and until such Lender gives notice as provided
below that the circumstances specified in Section 3.01, 3.02, 3.03 or 3.04
hereof that gave rise to such conversion no longer exist:

 

86

 

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

 

(ii) all Loans that would otherwise be made or continued from one
Interest Period to another by such Lender as Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be
made or continued instead as Base Rate Loans, and all Base Rate Loans of such
Lender that would otherwise be converted into Eurodollar Rate Loans shall
remain as Base Rate Loans.

 

(d)  If any Lender gives notice to the Company
(with a copy to the Administrative Agent) that the circumstances specified in Section 3.01,
3.02, 3.03 or 3.04 hereof that gave rise to the conversion of such Lender’s
Eurodollar Rate Loans pursuant to this Section 3.06 no longer exist (which
such Lender agrees to do promptly upon such circumstances ceasing to exist) at
a time when Eurodollar Rate Loans made by other Lenders are outstanding, such
Lender’s Base Rate Loans shall be automatically converted, on the first day(s)
of the next succeeding Interest Period(s) for such outstanding Eurodollar Rate
Loans, to the extent necessary so that, after giving effect thereto, all Loans
held by the Lenders holding Eurodollar Rate Loans and by such Lender are held
pro rata (as to principal amounts, interest rate basis, and Interest Periods)
in accordance with their respective Commitments.

 

SECTION 3.07. Replacement
of Lenders under Certain Circumstances. (a) 
If at any time (i) the Company becomes obligated to pay additional
amounts or indemnity payments described in Section 3.01 or
Section 3.04 as a result of any condition described in such Sections or
any Lender ceases to make Eurodollar Rate Loans as a result of any condition
described in Section 3.02 or Section 3.04, (ii) any Lender
becomes a Defaulting Lender or (iii) any Lender becomes a Non-Consenting
Lender, then the Company may, on ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice
to the Administrative Agent and such Lender, replace such Lender by causing
such Lender to (and such Lender shall be obligated to) assign pursuant to
Section 10.07(b) (with the assignment fee to be paid by the Company in
such instance) all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or
more Eligible Assignees; provided that
neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to
the Company to find a replacement Lender or other such Person; and provided, further, that (A) 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 and (B) in the case of any such assignment
resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable
Eligible Assignees shall have agreed to the applicable departure, waiver or
amendment of the Loan Documents.

 

(b)  Any Lender being replaced pursuant to
Section 3.07(a) above shall (i) execute and deliver an Assignment and
Assumption with respect to such Lender’s Commitment and outstanding Loans and
participations in L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans, and (ii) deliver
any Notes evidencing such Loans to the Company or 

 

87

 

Administrative Agent. Pursuant to such
Assignment and Assumption, (A) the assignee Lender shall acquire all or a
portion, as the case may be, of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and
outstanding Loans and participations in L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans,
(B) all obligations of the Company owing to the assigning Lender relating
to the Loans and participations so assigned shall be paid in full (including
the amounts of any interest, fees or any other amounts accrued for the account
of such Lender to the date of such payment on any such outstanding Loans or
participations in L/C Obligations or Swing Line Loans) by the assignee Lender
to such assigning Lender concurrently with such assignment and assumption and
(C) upon such payment and, if so requested by the assignee Lender,
delivery to the assignee Lender of the appropriate Note or Notes executed by
the Company, the assignee Lender shall become a Lender hereunder and the
assigning Lender shall cease to constitute a Lender hereunder with respect to

other security purported to be created on the applicable Collateral) on and
security interest in any material portion of the Collateral purported to be
covered thereby, subject to Liens permitted under Section 7.01, except to

statements and except as to Collateral consisting of real property to the
extent that such losses are covered by a lender’s title insurance policy and

request of the Required Lenders, shall take any or all of the following
actions:

each Lender to make Loans and any obligation of the L/C Issuers to make L/C
Credit Extensions to be terminated, whereupon such commitments and obligation
shall be terminated;

 

(b)  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

 

133

 

payable,
without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which
are hereby expressly waived by the Company;

 

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

 

(d)  exercise on behalf of itself
and the Lenders all rights and remedies available to it and the Lenders under
the Loan Documents or applicable Law;

 

provided 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 the L/C Issuers 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.

 

SECTION 8.03. Exclusion
of Immaterial Subsidiaries.  Solely
for the purpose of determining whether a Default has occurred under
clause (f) or (g) of Section 8.01, any reference in any such
clause to any Restricted Subsidiary or Loan Party shall be deemed not to
include any Restricted Subsidiary affected by any event or circumstances
referred to in any such clause that did not, as of the last day of the most
recent completed fiscal quarter of the Company, have assets with a value in excess
of 5% of the consolidated total assets of the Company and the Restricted
Subsidiaries and did not, as of the four quarter period ending on the last day
of such fiscal quarter, have revenues exceeding 5% of the total revenues of the
Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries (it being agreed that all Restricted
Subsidiaries affected by any event or circumstance referred to in any such
clause shall be considered together, as a single consolidated Restricted
Subsidiary, for purposes of determining whether the condition specified above
is satisfied).

 

SECTION 8.04. Application
of Funds.  After the exercise of
remedies provided for in Section 8.02 (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 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 (other than principal and interest, but including
Attorney Costs payable under Section 10.04 and amounts payable under
Article III) payable to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such;

 

Second, to payment
of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities and other
amounts (other than principal and interest) payable to the Lenders (including
Attorney Costs payable under Section 10.05 and amounts

 

134

 

payable under
Article III), ratably among them in proportion to the amounts described in this
clause Second payable to them;

 

Third, to payment of
that portion of the Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid interest on the
Loans and L/C Borrowings, ratably among the Lenders in proportion to the
respective amounts described in this clause Third payable to them;

 

Fourth, to payment
of that portion of the Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Loans
and L/C Borrowings, the Swap Termination Value under Secured Hedge Agreements
and the Cash Management Obligations, ratably among the Lenders and the other
Secured Parties in proportion to the respective amounts described in this
clause Fourth held by them;

 

Fifth, 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;

 

Sixth, to the
payment of all other Obligations of the Loan Parties that are due and payable
to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties on such date, ratably
based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such Obligations owing to
the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties on such date; and

 

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 to the extent an Event of Default shall be continuing
at such time, amounts used to Cash Collateralize the aggregate undrawn amount
of Letters of Credit pursuant to clause
Fifth 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 and, if no Obligations
remain outstanding, to the Company.

 

SECTION 8.05. Company’s
Right to Cure.  (a)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in Section 8.01, in the event of any Event of Default under any
covenant set forth in Section 7.11 and until the expiration of the tenth
(10th) day after the date on which financial statements are required to be
delivered with respect to the applicable fiscal quarter hereunder, Holdings (or
any Intermediate Holding Company or any direct or indirect parent of Holdings)
or the Company may engage in a Permitted Equity Issuance to any of the Equity
Investors and apply the amount of the net cash proceeds thereof to increase
Consolidated EBITDA with respect to such applicable quarter; provided that such net cash proceeds
(i) are actually received by the Company (including through capital
contribution of such net cash proceeds to the Company) no later than ten (10)
days after the date on which financial statements are required to be delivered
with respect to such fiscal quarter hereunder, and (ii) do not exceed the

 

135

 

aggregate amount necessary to cure such Event
of Default under Section 7.11 for any applicable period.

 

The parties
hereby acknowledge that this Section 8.05(a) may not be relied on for
purposes of calculating any financial ratios other than as applicable to
Section 7.11 and shall not result in any adjustment to any amounts other
than the amount of the Consolidated EBITDA referred to in the immediately
preceding sentence.

 

(b)  In each period (i) of four fiscal
quarters, there shall be at least one (1) fiscal quarter in which no cure
set forth in Section 8.05(a) is made and (ii) of eight fiscal
quarters, there shall be at least four (4) fiscal quarters, in which no cure
set forth in Section 8.05(a) is made.

 

ARTICLE IX

 

Administrative Agent and Other Agents

 

SECTION 9.01. Appointment
and Authorization of Agents. 
(a)  Each Lender hereby
irrevocably appoints, designates and authorizes the Administrative Agent to
take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each
other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are
expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary
contained elsewhere herein or in any other Loan Document, the Administrative
Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set
forth herein, nor shall the Administrative Agent have or be deemed to have any
fiduciary relationship with any Lender or participant, and no implied
covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities
shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist
against the Administrative Agent. 
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of
the term “agent” herein and in the other Loan Documents with reference to any
Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express)
obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law.  Instead, such term is used merely as a matter
of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative
relationship between independent contracting parties.

 

(b)  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 such L/C Issuer shall have all of the benefits
and immunities (i) provided to the Agents in this 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 the
applications and agreements for letters of credit pertaining to such Letters of
Credit as fully as if the term “Agent” as used in this Article IX and in the
definition of “Agent-Related Person” included such L/C Issuer with respect to
such acts or omissions, and (ii) as additionally provided herein with
respect to such L/C Issuer.

 

(c)  The Administrative Agent shall also act as
the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents, and each of the Lenders (in
its capacities as a Lender, Swing Line

 

136

 

Lender (if applicable), L/C Issuer (if
applicable) and a potential Hedge Bank) hereby irrevocably appoints and
authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as the agent of (and to hold any
security interest created by the Collateral Documents for and on behalf of or
on trust for) such Lender for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any
and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Loan Parties to secure any of
the Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably
incidental thereto.  In this connection,
the Administrative Agent, as “collateral agent” (and any co-agents, sub-agents
and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Administrative Agent pursuant to
Section 9.02 for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the
Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Collateral Documents, or
for exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the
Administrative Agent), shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of
this Article IX (including, Section 9.07, as though such co-agents,
sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact were the “collateral agent” under the Loan
Documents) as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto.

 

(d)  Except as provided in Sections 9.09 and
9.11, the provisions of this Article IX are solely for the benefit of the
Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer, and neither the Company
nor any other Loan Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any
of such provisions.

 

SECTION 9.02. Delegation
of Duties.  The Administrative Agent
may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document
(including for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or
any portion thereof) granted under the Collateral Documents or of exercising
any rights and remedies thereunder) by or through agents, employees or
attorneys-in-fact including for the purpose of any Borrowings, such sub-agents
as shall be deemed necessary by the Administrative Agent and shall be entitled
to advice of counsel and other consultants or experts concerning all matters
pertaining to such duties.  The Administrative
Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or
sub-agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects in the absence of gross
negligence or willful misconduct (as determined in the final judgment of a
court of competent jurisdiction).

 

SECTION 9.03. Liability
of Agents.  No Agent-Related Person
shall (a) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of
them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or
the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or
willful misconduct, as determined by the final judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction, in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein), or (b)
be responsible in any manner to any Lender or participant for any recital,
statement, representation or warranty made by any Loan Party or any officer
thereof, contained herein or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate,
report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received
by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any
other Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness,
enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or
the perfection or priority of any Lien or security interest created or
purported to be created under the Collateral Documents, or for any failure of
any Loan Party or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its
obligations hereunder or thereunder.  No
Agent-Related Person shall be under any

 

137

 

obligation to any Lender or participant to
ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the
agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan
Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Loan Party or
any Affiliate thereof.

 

SECTION 9.04. Reliance
by Agents.  (a)  Each Agent shall be entitled to rely, and
shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, communication,
signature, resolution, representation, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit,
letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, electronic mail
message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be
genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person
or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel
to any Loan Party), independent accountants and other experts selected by such
Agent.  Each Agent shall be fully justified
in failing or refusing to take any action under any Loan Document unless it
shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it
deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its
satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may
be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such
action.  Each Agent shall in all cases be
fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement
or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the
Required Lenders (or such greater number of Lenders as may be expressly
required hereby in any instance) and such request and any action taken or
failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders.

 

(b)  For purposes of determining compliance with
the conditions specified in Section 4.01, each Lender that has signed this
Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be
satisfied with, each document or other matter required thereunder to be
consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a Lender unless
the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from such Lender prior to
the proposed Closing Date specifying its objection thereto.

 

SECTION 9.05. Notice
of Default.  The Administrative Agent
shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any
Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest
and fees required to be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the
Lenders, unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice
from a Lender or the Company referring to this Agreement, describing such
Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.”  The Administrative Agent will notify the
Lenders of its receipt of any such notice. 
The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to any
Event of Default as may be directed by the Required Lenders in accordance with
Article VIII; provided that
unless and until the Administrative Agent has received any such direction, the
Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or
refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Event of Default as it
shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Lenders.

 

SECTION 9.06. Credit
Decision; Disclosure of Information by Agents.  Each Lender acknowledges that no
Agent-Related Person has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no
act by any Agent hereafter taken, including any consent to and

 

138

 

acceptance of any assignment or review of the
affairs of any Loan Party or any Affiliate thereof, shall be deemed to
constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent-Related Person to any
Lender as to any matter, including whether Agent-Related Persons have disclosed
material information in their possession. 
Each Lender represents to each Agent that it has, independently and
without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and
information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and
investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and
other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their respective
Subsidiaries, and all applicable bank or other regulatory Laws relating to the
transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this
Agreement and to extend credit to the Company and the other Loan Parties
hereunder.  Each Lender also represents
that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person
and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the
time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in
taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents,
and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to
the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition
and creditworthiness of the Company and the other Loan Parties.  Except for notices, reports and other
documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by any Agent
herein, such Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any
Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects,
operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any
of the Loan Parties or any of their respective Affiliates which may come into
the possession of any Agent-Related Person.

 

SECTION 9.07. Indemnification
of Agents.  Whether or not the
transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Lenders shall indemnify
upon demand each Agent-Related Person (to the extent not reimbursed by or on
behalf of any Loan Party and without limiting the obligation of any Loan Party
to do so), pro rata, and hold harmless each Agent-Related Person from and
against any and all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by it; provided that no Lender shall be liable
for the payment to any Agent-Related Person of any portion of such Indemnified
Liabilities resulting from such Agent-Related Person’s own gross negligence or
willful misconduct, as determined by the final judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction; provided that no
action taken in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders (or such
other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be required by the Loan
Documents) shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct
for purposes of this Section 9.07. 
In the case of any investigation, litigation or proceeding giving rise
to any Indemnified Liabilities, this Section 9.07 applies whether any such
investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Lender or any other
Person.  Without limitation of the
foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse the Administrative Agent upon demand for
its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including Attorney
Costs) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation,
execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement
(whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal
advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any
other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to
the extent that the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by
or on behalf of the Company.  The
undertaking in this Section 9.07 shall

 

139

 

survive termination of the Aggregate
Commitments, the payment of all other Obligations and the resignation of the
Administrative Agent.

 

SECTION 9.08. Agents
in their Individual Capacities. 
Credit Suisse and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of
credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire Equity Interests in
and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory,
underwriting or other business with each of the Loan Parties and their
respective Affiliates as though Credit Suisse were not the Administrative Agent
or an L/C Issuer hereunder and without notice to or consent of the
Lenders.  The Lenders acknowledge that,
pursuant to such activities, Credit Suisse or its Affiliates may receive
information regarding any Loan Party or its Affiliates (including information
that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Loan Party
or such Affiliate) and acknowledge that the Administrative Agent shall be under
no obligation to provide such information to them.  With respect to its Loans, Credit Suisse
shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender
and may exercise such rights and powers as though it were not the
Administrative Agent or an L/C Issuer, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders”
include Credit Suisse in its individual capacity.

 

SECTION 9.09. Successor
Agents.  The Administrative Agent may
resign as the Administrative Agent upon thirty (30) days’ notice to the Lenders
and the Company.  If the Administrative
Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall appoint from
among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which successor agent
shall be consented to by the Company at all times other than during the
existence of an Event of Default under Section 8.01(f) or (g) (which
consent of the Company shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).  If no successor agent is appointed prior to
the effective date of the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the
Administrative Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders and the
Company, a successor agent from among the Lenders.  Upon the acceptance of its appointment as
successor agent hereunder, the Person acting as such successor agent shall
succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent
and the term “Administrative Agent,” shall mean such successor administrative
agent and/or supplemental administrative agent, as the case may be, and the
retiring Administrative Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as the
Administrative Agent shall be terminated. 
After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as the
Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article IX and Sections 10.04
and 10.05 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be
taken by it while it was the Administrative Agent under this Agreement.  If no successor agent has accepted
appointment as the Administrative Agent by the date which is thirty (30) days
following the retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the
retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless become effective
and the Lenders shall perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent
hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor
agent as provided for above.  Upon the
acceptance of any appointment as the Administrative Agent hereunder by a
successor and upon the execution and filing or recording of such financing
statements, or amendments thereto, and such amendments or supplements to the
Mortgages, and such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or
desirable, or as the Required Lenders may request, in order to
(a) continue the perfection of the Liens granted or purported to be
granted by the

 

140

 

Collateral Documents or (b) otherwise ensure
that the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement is satisfied, the Administrative
Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers,
discretion, privileges, and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and
the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and
obligations under the Loan Documents. 
After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as the
Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article IX shall continue in
effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken
by it while it was acting as the Administrative Agent.

 

SECTION 9.10. 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 and the Administrative Agent (including
any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances
of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and
counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent
under Sections 2.03(h) and (i), 2.09 and 10.04) allowed in such judicial
proceeding; and

 

(b)  to collect and receive any
monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to
distribute the same;

 

and any
custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other
similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each
Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that
the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly
to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Agents and
their respective agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the
Administrative Agent under Sections 2.09 and 10.04.

 

Nothing
contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to
authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of
reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the
Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative
Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.

 

SECTION 9.11. Collateral
and Guaranty Matters.  The Lenders
irrevocably agree:

 

141

 

(a)  that any Lien on any
property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent
under any Loan Document shall be automatically released (i) upon
termination of the Aggregate Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations
(other than (x) obligations under Secured Hedge Agreements, (y) Cash Management
Obligations and (z) contingent indemnification obligations not yet accrued and
payable) and the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit (unless
such Letters of Credit have been collateralized on terms and conditions
reasonably satisfactory to the relevant L/C Issuers following termination of
the Commitments), (ii) at the time the property subject to such Lien is
transferred or to be transferred as part of or in connection with any transfer
permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document to any Person other than
Holdings, the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor, (iii) subject to
Section 10.01, if the release of such Lien is approved, authorized or
ratified in writing by the Required Lenders, or (iv) if the property
subject to such Lien is owned by a Guarantor, upon release of such Guarantor
from its obligations under its Guaranty pursuant to clause (c) below;

 

(b)  to release or subordinate
any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent or the
Collateral Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such
property that is permitted by Section 7.01(i) or (o);

 

(c)  that any Guarantor shall be
automatically released from its obligations under the Guaranty if such Person
ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of a transaction or
designation permitted hereunder (including as a result of a Guarantor being
redesignated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary);
provided that no such release shall occur if such Guarantor
continues to be a guarantor in respect of the Existing Notes, the New Notes or
any Junior Financing; and

 

Upon request
by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in
writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its
interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Guarantor
from its obligations under the Guaranty pursuant to this
Section 9.11.  In each case as
specified in this Section 9.11, the Administrative Agent will (and each
Lender irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to), at the Company’s
expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such documents as
such Loan Party may reasonably request to evidence the release or subordination
of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted
under the Collateral Documents, or to evidence the release of such Guarantor
from its obligations under the Guaranty, in each case in accordance with the
terms of the Loan Documents and this Section 9.11.

 

SECTION 9.12. Other
Agents; Arrangers and Managers.  None
of the Lenders or other Persons identified on the facing page or signature
pages of this Agreement as a “co-syndication agent,” “documentation agent,” “joint
bookrunner” or “arranger” (other than as set forth in clause (ii)) shall
have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this
Agreement other than those applicable to all Lenders as such.  Without limiting the foregoing, none of the
Lenders or other Persons so identified shall have or be deemed to have any
fiduciary relationship with any Lender.

 

142

 

Each Lender acknowledges that it has not
relied, and will not rely, on any of the Lenders or other Persons so identified
in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action
hereunder.

 

SECTION 9.13. Appointment
of Supplemental Administrative Agents. 
(a)  It is the purpose of this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents that there shall be no violation of any
Law of any jurisdiction denying or restricting the right of banking
corporations or associations to transact business as agent or trustee in such
jurisdiction.  It is recognized that in
case of litigation under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and
in particular in case of the enforcement of any of the Loan Documents, or in
case the Administrative Agent deems that by reason of any present or future Law
of any jurisdiction it may not exercise any of the rights, powers or remedies
granted herein or in any of the other Loan Documents or take any other action
which may be desirable or necessary in connection therewith, the Administrative
Agent is hereby authorized to appoint an additional individual or institution
selected by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion as a separate
trustee, co-trustee, administrative agent, collateral agent, administrative
sub-agent or administrative co-agent (any such additional individual or
institution being referred to herein individually as a “Supplemental Administrative Agent” and
collectively as “Supplemental Administrative
Agents”).

 

(b)  In the event that the Administrative Agent
appoints a Supplemental Administrative Agent with respect to any Collateral,
(i) each and every right, power, privilege or duty expressed or intended
by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to be exercised by or
vested in or conveyed to the Administrative Agent with respect to such
Collateral shall be exercisable by and vest in such Supplemental Administrative
Agent to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to enable such
Supplemental Administrative Agent to exercise such rights, powers and
privileges with respect to such Collateral and to perform such duties with
respect to such Collateral, and every covenant and obligation contained in the
Loan Documents and necessary to the exercise or performance thereof by such
Supplemental Administrative Agent shall run to and be enforceable by either the
Administrative Agent or such Supplemental Administrative Agent, and
(ii) the provisions of this Article IX and of Sections 10.04 and
10.05 that refer to the Administrative Agent shall inure to the benefit of such
Supplemental Administrative Agent and all references therein to the
Administrative Agent shall be deemed to be references to the Administrative
Agent and/or such Supplemental Administrative Agent, as the context may
require.

 

(c)  Should any instrument in writing from the
Company, Holdings or any other Loan Party be required by any Supplemental
Administrative Agent so appointed by the Administrative Agent for more fully
and certainly vesting in and confirming to him or it such rights, powers,
privileges and duties, the Company or Holdings, as applicable, shall, or shall
cause such Loan Party to, execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all such
instruments promptly upon request by the Administrative Agent.  In case any Supplemental Administrative
Agent, or a successor thereto, shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or
be removed, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of such Supplemental
Administrative Agent, to the extent permitted by Law, shall vest in and be

 

143

 

exercised by the Administrative Agent until
the appointment of a new Supplemental Administrative Agent.

SECTION 10.01.
Amendments, Etc.  Except as
otherwise set forth in this Agreement (including pursuant to Section 2.14),
no amendment, modification, supplement or waiver of any provision of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, and no consent to any departure by the

signed by the Required Lenders and the Company or the applicable Loan Party, as
the case may be, and each such amendment, modification, supplement, waiver or
consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific
purpose for which given; provided that,
no such amendment, modification, supplement, waiver or consent shall:

 

(a)  extend or increase the
Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of each Lender directly
affected thereby (it being understood that a waiver of any condition precedent
set forth in Section 4.02 or the waiver of any Default, mandatory
prepayment or mandatory reduction of the Commitments shall not constitute an
extension or increase of any Commitment of any Lender);

 

(b)  postpone any date scheduled
for, or reduce the amount of, any payment of principal or interest under
Section 2.07 or 2.08 without the written consent of each Lender directly
affected thereby, it being understood that the waiver of (or amendment to the
terms of) any mandatory prepayment of the Term Loans shall not constitute a
postponement of any date scheduled for the payment of principal or interest;

 

(c)  reduce the principal of, or
the rate of interest specified herein on, any Loan or L/C Borrowing, or
(subject to clause (iii) of the second proviso to this Section 10.01)
any fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document
without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, it being
understood that any change to the definition of Senior Secured Leverage Ratio, Total
Leverage Ratio, Interest Coverage Ratio or in the component definitions of each
thereof shall not constitute a reduction in the rate; provided that, only the consent of the Required Lenders
shall be necessary to amend the definition of “Default Rate” or to waive any
obligation of the Company to pay interest or Letter of Credit fees at the
Default Rate;

 

(d)  change any provision of this
Section 10.01, the definition of “Required Lenders” or “Pro Rata Share” or
Sections 2.05(b)(v)(B), 2.06(c), 8.04 or 2.13 without the written consent
of each Lender affected thereby;

 

144

permitted under Section 7.04 or 7.05, release all or substantially all of
the Collateral in any transaction or series of related transactions, without
the written consent of each Lender;

 

(f)  other than in connection
with a transaction permitted under Section 7.04 or 7.05, release all or
substantially all of the aggregate value of the Guarantees, without the written
consent of each Lender;

 

and provided, further, that (i) no
amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by each L/C
Issuer in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties
of an L/C Issuer under this Agreement or any Letter of Credit Application
relating to any Letter of Credit issued or to be issued by it; (ii) no
amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Swing
Line Lender in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the rights or
duties of the Swing Line Lender under this Agreement; (iii) no amendment,
waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Administrative
Agent in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties
of, or any fees or other amounts payable to, the Administrative Agent under
this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (iv) Section 10.07(i) may
not be amended, waived or otherwise modified without the consent of each
Granting Lender all or any part of whose Loans are being funded by an SPC at
the time of such amendment, waiver or other modification; and (v) the
consent of Lenders holding more than 50% of any Class of Commitments shall be
required with respect to any amendment that by its terms adversely affects the
rights of such Class in respect of payments hereunder in a manner different
than such amendment affects other Classes. 
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender
shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder,
except that the Commitment of such Lender may not be increased or extended
without the consent of such Lender (it being understood that any Commitments or
Loans held or deemed held by any Defaulting Lender shall be excluded for a vote
of the Lenders hereunder requiring any consent of the Lenders).

 

Notwithstanding
the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) with the
written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the
Company (a) to add one or more additional credit facilities to this
Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding
thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share
ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the
Term Loans and the Revolving Credit Loans and the accrued interest and fees in
respect thereof and (b) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such
credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders.

 

In addition,
notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended with the written
consent of the Administrative Agent, Holdings, the Company and the Lenders
providing Replacement Term Loans (as defined below) to permit the refinancing
of all outstanding Term Loans (“Refinanced
Term Loans”) with a replacement term loan tranche (“Replacement Term Loans”) hereunder; provided that (a) the aggregate
principal amount of such Replacement Term Loans shall not exceed the

 

145

 

aggregate
principal amount of such Refinanced Term Loans, (b) the Applicable Rate for
such Replacement Term Loans shall not be higher than the Applicable Rate for
such Refinanced Term Loans, (c) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of
such Replacement Term Loans shall not be shorter than the Weighted Average Life
to Maturity of such Refinanced Term Loans at the time of such refinancing
(except to the extent of nominal amortization for periods where amortization
has been eliminated as a result of prepayment of the applicable Term Loans) and
(d) all other terms applicable to such Replacement Term Loans shall be
substantially identical to, or no less favorable to the Lenders providing such
Replacement Term Loans than, those applicable to such Refinanced Term Loans, except
to the extent necessary to provide for covenants and other terms applicable to
any period after the latest final maturity of the Term Loans in effect
immediately prior to such refinancing.

 

Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in Section 10.01, in consultation with
the Administrative Agent, the Company and the Arrangers may without the input
or consent of the Lenders, effect amendments to this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate in the opinion of the
Arrangers to effect the provisions of Section 2.14.

 

Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in Section 10.01, guarantees,
collateral security documents and related documents executed by Subsidiaries in
connection with this Agreement may be in a form reasonably determined by the
Administrative Agent and may be, together with this Agreement, amended,
supplemented and waived with the consent of the Administrative Agent at the
request of the Company without the need to obtain the consent of any other
Lender if such amendment, supplement or waiver is delivered in order (i) to
comply with local Law or advice of local counsel, (ii) to cure ambiguities,
omissions, mistakes or defects or (iii) to cause such guarantee, collateral
security document or other document to be consistent with this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents.

effective as a notice, communication or confirmation hereunder.

 

(b)  Effectiveness

manually signed originals and shall be binding on all Loan Parties, the Agents
and the Lenders.

by Agents and Lenders.  The
Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any
notices (including telephonic 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

negligence or willful misconduct.  All
telephonic notices to the Administrative Agent may be recorded by the
Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such
recording.

 

SECTION 10.03.
No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. 
No failure by any Lender or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no
delay by any such Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege
hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof;

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, and provided under each other Loan Document, are cumulative
and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by
Law.

reimburse the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers for all reasonable and
documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the

other Loan Documents, and any amendment, waiver, consent or other modification
of the provisions hereof and thereof (whether or not the transactions

of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including all Attorney

Administrative Agent).  The foregoing
costs and expenses shall include all reasonable search, filing, recording and
title insurance charges and fees and taxes related thereto.  The agreements in this Section 10.04
shall survive the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and repayment of all
other Obligations.  All amounts due under
this Section 10.04 shall be paid within ten (10) Business Days of receipt
by the Company of an invoice relating thereto setting forth such expenses in
reasonable detail.  If any Loan Party

Loan Party by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion.

 

SECTION 10.05.
Indemnification by the Company. 
Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the
Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each Agent-Related Person, each
Lender and their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, employees,

from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and
disbursements (including Attorney Costs) of any kind or nature whatsoever which
may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such
Indemnitee in any way relating to or arising out of or in connection with
(a) the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance or administration of
any Loan Document or any other agreement, letter or instrument delivered in
connection with the transactions contemplated thereby or the consummation of
the transactions contemplated thereby, (b) any Commitment, Loan or Letter of
Credit or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom (including any
refusal by an 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), or (c) any actual or
alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property
currently or formerly owned or operated by the Company, any Subsidiary or any
other Loan Party, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the
Company, any Subsidiary or any other Loan Party, or (d) any actual or
prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of
the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory (including
any investigation of, preparation for, or defense of any pending or threatened
claim, investigation, litigation or proceeding) and regardless of whether any
Indemnitee

 

148

 

is a party thereto (all the foregoing,
collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”),
in all cases, whether or not caused by or arising, in whole or in part, out of
the negligence of the Indemnitee; provided that
such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that
such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands,
actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulted from
(x) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or of
any Affiliate, director, officer, employee, counsel, agent or attorney-in-fact
of such Indemnitee or (y) a material breach of the Loan Documents any such
Indemnitee or by any Affiliate, director, officer, employee, counsel, agent or
attorney-in-fact of such Indemnitee.  No
Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of
any information or other materials obtained through IntraLinks or other similar
information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement, nor shall
any Indemnitee or any Loan Party have any liability for any special, punitive,
indirect or consequential damages relating to this Agreement or any other Loan
Document or arising out of its activities in connection herewith or therewith
(whether before or after the Closing Date). 
In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which
the indemnity in this Section 10.05 applies, such indemnity shall be
effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is
brought by any Loan Party, its directors, stockholders or creditors or an
Indemnitee or any other Person, whether or not any Indemnitee is otherwise a
party thereto and whether or not any of the transactions contemplated hereunder
or under any of the other Loan Documents is consummated.  All amounts due under this Section 10.05
shall be paid within ten (10) Business Days after written demand therefor; provided, however, that such Indemnitee
shall promptly refund such amount to the extent that there is a final judicial
or arbitral determination that such Indemnitee was not entitled to indemnification
or contribution rights with respect to such payment pursuant to the express
terms of this Section 10.05.  The
agreements in this Section 10.05 shall survive the resignation of the
Administrative Agent, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the
Aggregate Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the
other Obligations.

 

SECTION 10.06.
Payments Set Aside.  To the extent
that any payment by or on behalf of the Company is made to any Agent or any
Lender, or any Agent or any 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 such Agent 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 severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon
demand its applicable share of any amount so recovered from or repaid by any
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.

 

SECTION 10.07.
Successors and Assigns.  (a)  The provisions of this Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their

 

149

 

respective successors and assigns permitted

the Company may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations
hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender and no Lender may
assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except
(i) to an Eligible Assignee, (ii) by way of participation in
accordance with the provisions of Section 10.07(f), (iii) by way of
pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of Section 10.07(h)
or (iv) to an SPC in accordance with the provisions of
Section 10.07(i) (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any
party hereto shall be null and void). 
Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to
confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective
successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in
Section 10.07(f) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the
Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason
of this Agreement.

 

(b)  (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in
paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees (“Assignees”) all or a portion of its rights
and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its
Commitment and the Loans (including for purposes of this Section 10.07(b),
participations in L/C Obligations and in Swing Line Loans) at the time owing to
it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld
or delayed) of:

 

(A) the Company; provided
that no consent of the Company shall be required for an assignment to a Lender,
an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund, if an Event of Default under
Section 8.01(a), (f) or (g) has occurred and is continuing, any
Assignee;

 

(B) the Administrative Agent;
provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be
required for an assignment (i) of all or any portion of a Term Loan to a
Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or (ii) to an Agent
or an Affiliate of an Agent;

 

(C) each L/C Issuer at the time of such assignment; provided that no consent of the L/C
Issuers shall be required for any assignment of a Term Loan or any assignment
to an Agent or an Affiliate of an Agent; and

 

(D) the Swing Line Lender; provided
that no consent of the Swing Line Lender shall be required for any assignment
of a Term Loan or any assignment to an Agent or an Affiliate of an Agent.

 

(ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional
conditions:

 

(A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of
a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning
Lender’s Commitment or Loans of any Class, the amount of the Commitment or
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)

 

150

 

shall not be
less than $5,000,000 (in the case of each Revolving Credit Facility), or
$1,000,000 (in the case of a Term Loan) (provided
that simultaneous assignments to or by two or more Approved Funds shall be
aggregated for purposes of complying with such minimum assignment amount)
unless each of the Company and the Administrative Agent otherwise consents; provided that (1) no such consent of the
Company shall be required if an Event of Default under Section 8.01(a),
(f) or (g) has occurred and is continuing and (2) such amounts shall be
aggregated in respect of each Lender and its Affiliates or Approved Funds, if
any;

 

(B) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to
the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption via an electronic
settlement system acceptable to the Administrative Agent (or, if previously
agreed with the Administrative Agent, manually), and shall pay to the
Administrative Agent a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (which fee may
be waived or reduced in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent); and

 

(C) the Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the
Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire and all applicable tax
forms.

 

This paragraph
(b) shall not prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a portion of its rights
and obligations among separate Facilities on a non-pro rata basis.

 

(c)  Subject to acceptance and recording thereof
by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 10.07(d), from and after
the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the Eligible 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, 10.04 and 10.05 with respect to facts and
circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment).  Upon request, and the surrender by the
assigning Lender of its Note, 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 clause (c) 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 Section 10.07(f).

 

(d)  The Administrative Agent, acting solely for
this purpose as an agent of the Company, 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

 

151

 

names and addresses of the Lenders, and the
Commitments of, and principal amounts (and related interest amounts) of the
Loans, L/C Obligations (specifying the Unreimbursed Amounts), L/C Borrowings
and amounts due under Section 2.03, owing to, each Lender pursuant to the
terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”).  The entries in the Register shall be
conclusive, absent manifest error, and the Company, the Agents and the Lenders
shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the
terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement,
notwithstanding notice to the contrary. 
The Register shall be available for inspection by the Company, any Agent
and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior
notice.

 

(e)  Upon its receipt of, and consent to, a duly
completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an
Assignee, an Administrative Questionnaire completed in respect of the assignee
(unless the Assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation
fee referred to in paragraph (b) above, if applicable, and the written consent
of the Administrative Agent and, if required, the Company, the Swing Line
Lender and each L/C Issuer to such assignment and any applicable tax forms, the
Administrative Agent shall promptly (i) accept such Assignment and Assumption
and (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register. No
assignment shall be effective unless it has been recorded in the Register as
provided in this paragraph (e).

 

(f)  Any Lender may at any time, without the
consent of, or notice to, the Company or the Administrative Agent, the L/C
Issuers or the Swing Line Lender, sell participations to any Person (other than
a natural person) (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
Agents and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with
such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this
Agreement.  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 the other Loan
Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision
of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents;
provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such
Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any
amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to
Section 10.01 that directly affects such Participant.  Subject to Section 10.07(g), the Company
agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of
Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and
had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 10.07(c) but
shall not be entitled to recover greater amounts under such Sections than
the selling Lender would be entitled to recover.  To the extent permitted by applicable Law,
each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.09
as though it were a Lender; provided that
such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.13 as though it were a
Lender.

 

152

 

(g)  A Participant shall not be entitled to
receive any greater payment under Section 3.01, 3.04 or 3.05 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 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 10.15 as though it were a Lender.

 

(h)  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 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.

 

(i)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting
Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle identified
as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the
Administrative Agent and the Company (an “SPC”)
the option to provide all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender
would otherwise be obligated to make pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein
shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to fund any Loan, and (ii) if an
SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to make all or any
part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan
pursuant to the terms hereof. Each party hereto hereby agrees that
(i) neither the grant to any SPC nor the exercise by any SPC of such
option shall increase the costs or expenses or otherwise increase or change the
obligations of the Company under this Agreement (including its obligations
under Section 3.01, 3.04 or 3.05), (ii) no SPC shall be liable for
any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement for which a
Lender would be liable, and (iii) the Granting Lender shall for all
purposes, including the approval of any amendment, waiver or other modification
of any provision of any Loan Document, remain the lender of record hereunder. The
making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the
Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such
Granting Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any
SPC may (i) with notice to, but without prior consent of the Company and
the Administrative Agent and with the payment of a processing fee of $3,500,
assign all or any portion of its right to receive payment with respect to any
Loan to the Granting Lender and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any
non-public information relating to its funding of Loans to any rating agency,
commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety or Guarantee Obligation or
credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.

 

(j)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, (1) any Lender may in accordance with applicable Law create a
security interest in all or any portion of the Loans owing to it and the Note,
if any, held by it and (2) any Lender that is a Fund may create a security
interest in all or any portion of the Loans owing to it and the Note, if any,
held by it to the trustee for holders of obligations owed, or securities
issued, by such Fund as security for such obligations or securities; provided that unless and until such
trustee actually becomes a Lender in compliance with the other provisions of
this

 

153

 

Section 10.07, (i) no such pledge
shall release the pledging Lender from any of its obligations under the Loan
Documents and (ii) such trustee shall not be entitled to exercise any of
the rights of a Lender under the Loan Documents even though such trustee may
have acquired ownership rights with respect to the pledged interest through
foreclosure or otherwise.

 

(k)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, any L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender may, upon thirty (30)
days’ notice to the Company and the Lenders, resign as an L/C Issuer or the
Swing Line Lender, respectively; provided
that on or prior to the expiration of such 30-day period with respect to such
resignation, the relevant L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender shall have
identified a successor L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender reasonably acceptable to
the Company willing to accept its appointment as successor L/C Issuer or Swing
Line Lender, as applicable. In the event of any such resignation of an L/C
Issuer or the Swing Line Lender, the Company shall be entitled to appoint from
among the Lenders willing to accept such appointment a successor L/C Issuer or
Swing Line Lender hereunder; provided that
no failure by the Company to appoint any such successor shall affect the
resignation of the relevant L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender, as the case
may be, except as expressly provided above. If an L/C Issuer resigns as an L/C
Issuer, it shall retain all the rights and obligations 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 Loans or
fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to
Section 2.03(c)). If the Swing Line Lender 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
Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in outstanding Swing Line Loans
pursuant to Section 2.04(c).

 

SECTION 10.08.
Confidentiality. Each of the Agents and the Lenders agrees to maintain
the confidentiality of the Information, except that Information may be
disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and its and its Affiliates’ directors,
officers, employees, trustees, investment advisors and agents, including
accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons
to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of
such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential); (b) to
the extent requested by any Governmental Authority; (c) to the extent
required by applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal
process; (d) to any other party to this Agreement; (e) subject to an
agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this
Section 10.08 (or as may otherwise be reasonably acceptable to the
Company), to any pledgee referred to in Section 10.07(h), counterparty to
a Swap Contract, Eligible Assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective
Eligible Assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under
this Agreement; (f) with the written consent of the Company; (g) to
the extent such Information becomes publicly available other than as a result
of a breach of this Section 10.08; (h) to any Governmental Authority or
examiner (including the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any
other similar organization) regulating any Lender; or (i) to any rating
agency when required by it (it being understood that,

 

154

 

prior to any such disclosure, such rating
agency shall undertake to preserve the confidentiality of any Information
relating to the Loan Parties received by it from such Lender). In addition, the
Agents and the Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and
information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar service
providers to the lending industry, and service providers to the Agents and the
Lenders in connection with the administration and management of this Agreement,
the other Loan Documents, the Commitments, and the Credit Extensions. For the
purposes of this Section 10.08, “Information”
means all information received from any Loan Party relating to any Loan Party
or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their businesses, other than any such
information that is publicly available to any Agent or any Lender prior to
disclosure by any Loan Party other than as a result of a breach of this
Section 10.08; provided that,
in the case of information received from a Loan Party after the date hereof,
such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential
or (ii) is delivered pursuant to Section 6.01, 6.02 or 6.03 hereof.

 

SECTION 10.09.
Setoff. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided
by Law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default,
each Lender and its Affiliates and each L/C Issuer and its Affiliates is
authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to the
Company or any other Loan Party, any such notice being waived by the Company
(on its own behalf and on behalf of each Loan Party and its Subsidiaries) 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) at any
time held by, and other Indebtedness at any time owing by, such Lender and its
Affiliates or such L/C Issuer and its Affiliates to or for the credit or the
account of the respective Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries against any and
all Obligations owing to such Lender and its Affiliates or such L/C Issuer and
its Affiliates hereunder or under any other Loan Document, now or hereafter
existing, irrespective of whether or not such Agent, such Lender or Affiliate,
or such L/C Issuer or Affiliate shall have made demand under this Agreement or
any other Loan Document and although such Obligations may be contingent or
unmatured. Each Lender and each L/C Issuer agrees promptly to notify the
Company and the Administrative Agent in writing after any such set off and
application made by such Lender or L/C Issuer;
provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the
validity of such setoff and application. The rights of the Administrative
Agent, each Lender and each L/C Issuer under this Section 10.09 are in
addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that
the Administrative Agent, such Lender and such L/C Issuer may have.

 

SECTION 10.10.
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 any 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 an 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

 

155

 

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.

 

SECTION 10.11.
Counterparts. This Agreement and each other Loan Document may be executed
in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all
of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery by
facsimile transmission or other electronic transmission (i.e. a “pdf” or “tif”)
of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement and each other
Loan Document shall be effective as delivery of an original executed
counterpart of this Agreement and such other Loan Document. The Agents may also
require that any such documents and signatures delivered by facsimile
transmission or other electronic transmission be confirmed by a manually signed
original thereof; provided that
the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of
any document or signature delivered by facsimile transmission or other
electronic transmission.

 

SECTION 10.12.
Integration. This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents,
comprises the complete and integrated agreement of the parties on the subject
matter hereof and thereof and supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral,
on such subject matter. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of
this Agreement and those of any other Loan Document, the provisions of this
Agreement shall control; provided that
the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of the Agents or the
Lenders in any other Loan Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this
Agreement. Each Loan Document was drafted with the joint participation of the
respective parties thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in favor
of any party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof.

 

SECTION 10.13.
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 each Agent
and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by any Agent or any
Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that any 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 (other than
Obligations under Secured Hedge Agreements, Cash Management Obligations or
contingent indemnification obligations not then due and payable) or any Letter
of Credit shall remain outstanding.

 

SECTION 10.14.
Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, the legality,
validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby. The
invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or
render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

 

156

 

SECTION 10.15.
Tax Forms. (a)  (i) Each Lender
and Agent that is not a “United States person” within the meaning of
Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (each, a “Foreign Lender”) shall deliver to the Company and the
Administrative Agent, on or prior to the date which is ten (10) Business Days
after the Closing Date (or upon accepting an assignment of an interest herein),
two duly signed, properly completed copies of either IRS Form W-8BEN or any
successor thereto (relating to such Foreign Lender and entitling it to an
exemption from, or reduction of, United States withholding tax on all
payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by the Company or any other Loan
Party pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document) or IRS Form W-8ECI
or any successor thereto (relating to all payments to be made to such Foreign
Lender by the Company or any other Loan Party pursuant to this Agreement or any
other Loan Document) or such other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the
Company and the Administrative Agent that such Foreign Lender is entitled to an
exemption from, or reduction of, United States withholding tax, including
any exemption pursuant to Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, and in the
case of a Foreign Lender claiming such an exemption under Section 881(c)
of the Code, a certificate that establishes in writing to the Company and the
Administrative Agent that such Foreign Lender is not (i) a “bank” as
defined in Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (ii) a 10-percent
stockholder within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code, or
(iii) a controlled foreign corporation related to the Company with the
meaning of Section 864(d) of the Code. Thereafter and from time to time at
the request of the Company in writing, each such Foreign Lender shall
(A) promptly submit to the Company and the Administrative Agent such
additional duly completed and signed copies of one or more of such forms or
certificates (or such successor forms or certificates as shall be adopted from
time to time by the relevant United States taxing authorities) as may then
be available under then current United States Laws and regulations to
avoid, or such evidence as is reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the
Administrative Agent of any available exemption from, or reduction of,
United States withholding taxes in respect of all payments to be made to
such Foreign Lender by the Company or other Loan Party pursuant to this
Agreement, or any other Loan Document, in each case, (1) on or before the date
that any such form, certificate or other evidence expires or becomes obsolete,
(2) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent
form, certificate or evidence previously delivered by it to the Company and the
Administrative Agent and (3) from time to time thereafter if reasonably
requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent, and (B) promptly
notify the Company and the Administrative Agent of any change in circumstances
which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction.

 

(ii) Each Foreign Lender, to the extent it does not act or ceases to
act for its own account with respect to any portion of any sums paid or payable
to such Foreign Lender under any of the Loan Documents (for example, in the
case of a typical participation by such Foreign Lender), shall deliver to the
Company and the Administrative Agent on the date when such Foreign Lender
ceases to act for its own account with respect to any portion of any such sums
paid or payable, and at such other times as may be necessary in the
determination of the Company or the Administrative Agent (in either case, in
the reasonable exercise of its discretion), (A) two duly signed completed
copies of the forms or statements

 

157

 

required to be
provided by such Foreign Lender as set forth above, to establish the portion of
any such sums paid or payable with respect to which such Foreign Lender acts
for its own account that is not subject to United States withholding tax,
and (B) two duly signed completed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY (or any
successor thereto), together with any information such Foreign Lender chooses
to transmit with such form, and any other certificate or statement of exemption
required under the Code, to establish that such Foreign Lender is not acting
for its own account with respect to a portion of any such sums payable to such
Foreign Lender.

 

(iii) The Company shall not be required to pay any additional amount or
any indemnity payment under Section 3.01 to (A) any Foreign Lender if
such Foreign Lender shall have failed to satisfy the foregoing provisions of
this Section 10.15(a), or (B) any U.S. Lender if such U.S. Lender
shall have failed to satisfy the provisions of Section 10.15(b); provided that (i) if such Lender shall
have satisfied the requirement of this or Section 10.15(b), as applicable,
on the date such Lender became a Lender or ceased to act for its own account
with respect to any payment under any of the Loan Documents, nothing in this
Section 10.15(a) or Section 10.15(b) shall relieve the Company of its
obligation to pay any amounts pursuant to Section 3.01 in the event that,
as a result of any change in any applicable Law, treaty or governmental rule,
regulation or order, or any change in the interpretation, administration or
application thereof, such Lender is no longer properly entitled to deliver
forms, certificates or other evidence at a subsequent date establishing the
fact that such Lender or other Person for the account of which such Lender
receives any sums payable under any of the Loan Documents is not subject to
withholding or is subject to withholding at a reduced rate and
(ii) nothing in this Section 10.15(a) shall relieve the Company of
its obligation to pay any amounts pursuant to Section 3.01 in the event
that the requirements of Section 10.15(a)(ii) have not been satisfied if
the Company is entitled, under applicable Law, to rely on any applicable forms
and statements required to be provided under this Section 10.15 by the
Foreign Lender that does not act or has ceased to act for its own account under
any of the Loan Documents, including in the case of a typical participation.

 

(iv) The Administrative Agent may deduct and withhold any taxes
required by any Laws to be deducted and withheld from any payment under any of
the Loan Documents.

 

(b)  Each Lender and Agent that is a “United States
person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (each, a “U.S. Lender”) shall deliver to the
Administrative Agent and the Company two duly signed, properly completed copies
of IRS Form W-9 on or prior to the Closing Date (or on or prior to the date it
becomes a party to this Agreement), certifying that such U.S. Lender is
entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax, or any
successor form. If such U.S. Lender fails to deliver such forms, then the
Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to such U.S. Lender an
amount equivalent to the applicable backup withholding tax imposed by the Code.

 

158

 

SECTION 10.16.
No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all aspects
of each transaction contemplated hereby, the Company and each other Loan Party
acknowledge and agree that:  (i) the
Facilities provided hereunder on the date hereof and any arranging of the
Facilities by the Arrangers prior to the date hereof are arm’s-length
commercial transactions between the Company and each other Loan Party on the
one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers on the other hand, and
the Company and each other Loan Party are capable of evaluating and
understanding, and understand and accept the terms, risks and conditions of the

leading to such transactions prior to the date hereof, the Administrative Agent
and the Arrangers have been acting solely as principals and are not the
financial advisors, agents or fiduciaries, for the Company or any other Loan
Party; (iii) neither the Administrative Agent nor any Arranger has assumed
an advisory, agency or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Company or any
other Loan Party with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby or
the process leading thereto and neither the Administrative Agent nor any
Arranger, in their capacity as such, has any obligation to the Company or any
other Loan Party with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except
those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents;
(iv) the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers and their respective
Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve
interests that differ from the Company and the other Loan Parties and neither
the Administrative Agent nor any Arranger has any obligation to disclose any of
such interests by virtue of any advisory, agency or fiduciary relationship; and
(v) the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers have not provided any
legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to any of the transactions
contemplated hereby prior to the date hereof and each of the Company and the
other Loan Parties has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax
advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate.

 

SECTION 10.17.
GOVERNING LAW. (a)  THIS AGREEMENT
AND EACH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE
WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

 

(b)  ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING UNDER
ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE

JURISDICTION IN RESPECT OF ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR OTHER DOCUMENT RELATED THERETO.

EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR
CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING UNDER ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR
RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO OR ANY OF THEM WITH
RESPECT TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED THERETO, IN EACH CASE

been executed by the Company and Holdings and the Administrative Agent shall
have been notified by each Lender, Swing Line Lender and L/C Issuer that each
such Lender, Swing Line Lender and L/C Issuer has executed it and thereafter
shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company, each Agent and
each Lender and their respective successors and assigns, except that the
Company shall not have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest
herein without the prior written consent of the Lenders except as permitted by

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,

including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce
Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar

statement or Compliance Certificate previously delivered pursuant to
Section  6.02 was inaccurate (regardless of
whether this Agreement or the Commitments are in effect when such inaccuracy is
discovered), and such inaccuracy, if corrected, would have led to the
application of a higher Applicable Rate for any period (an “Applicable Period”) than the Applicable Rate
applied for such Applicable Period,

 

160

 

then (i) the Company shall as soon as
practicable deliver to the Administrative Agent a corrected financial statement
and a corrected Compliance Certificate for such Applicable Period, (ii) the
Applicable Rate shall be determined based on the corrected Compliance
Certificate for such Applicable Period, and (iii) the Company shall within 15
days after the delivery of the corrected financial statements and Compliance Certificate
pay to the Administrative Agent the accrued additional interest or fees owing

Lenders with respect to Sections 2.08(b) and 8.01.

GUARANTY dated
as of November 20,
2007 among REABLE THERAPEUTICS FINANCE
LLC (to be renamed DJO FINANCE LLC), a Delaware limited liability company (the “Borrower”), REABLE THERAPEUTICS HOLDINGS LLC (to be renamed
DJO HOLDINGS LLC), a Delaware limited liability company (“Holdings”),  the Subsidiaries of Holdings from
time to time party hereto and CREDIT SUISSE, as Collateral Agent.

 

Reference is
made to the Credit Agreement dated as of November 20, 2007 (as amended,
supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit
Agreement”),  among the
Borrower,  Holdings, Credit Suisse, as Administrative Agent,
Collateral Agent, Swing Line Lender and an L/C Issuer, and each lender from
time to time party thereto (collectively, the “Lenders”  and individually, a “Lender”).
The Lenders have agreed to extend credit to the Borrower subject to the
terms and conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement. The Guarantors may receive,
directly or indirectly, a portion of the proceeds of the Loans under the Credit
Agreement and will derive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the
transactions contemplated by the Credit Agreement. It is a condition precedent
to the making of Loans and the issuance of Letters of Credit by the Lenders
under the Credit Agreement and the entry by any Lender or Affiliate of a Lender
in its capacity as a provider of cash management services into Cash
Management Obligations and Hedge Banks into Secured Hedge Agreements from time
to time that the Guarantors shall have executed and delivered this Agreement. Holdings
and the Subsidiary Parties are affiliates of the Borrower, will derive
substantial benefits from the extension of credit to the Borrower pursuant to
the Credit Agreement and are willing to execute and deliver this Agreement in
order to induce the Lenders to extend such credit. Accordingly, the parties
hereto agree as follows:

Guaranty

 

SECTION 2.01.
Guaranty.

 

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

 

(b)                                 The
Collateral Agent (by its acceptance of this Agreement), the other Secured
Parties and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the Obligations of
each Guarantor hereunder, and the security interest in the assets of each
Guarantor granted under the 

 

2

 

Collateral
Documents at any time shall be limited to the maximum amount as will result in
the Obligations of such Guarantor under this Agreement not constituting a
fraudulent transfer or fraudulent conveyance or being voidable under the Uniform Fraudulent
Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, or any similar
foreign, federal or state law or in any proceeding of the type referred to Section 8.01(f) of
the Credit Agreement, to the extent the Act, law or proceeding is applicable to
this Agreement or to the Obligations of each Guarantor hereunder.

 

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

 

SECTION 2.03.
No Limitations.

 

(a)                                  Except
for termination of a Guarantor’s obligations hereunder as expressly provided in
Section 4.13, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be
subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason,
including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise,
and shall not be subject to any defense or set-off, counterclaim, recoupment or
termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality or
unenforceability of the Obligations, or otherwise. Any and all payments made by
the Guarantor under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document
shall be made, in accordance with Section 3.01 of the Credit Agreement. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Guarantor
hereunder shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by (i) the
failure of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to assert any claim
or demand or to enforce any right or remedy under the provisions of any Loan
Document or otherwise; (ii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or
modification of, or any release from any of the terms or provisions of, any
Loan Document or any other agreement, including with respect to any other
Guarantor under this Agreement; (iii) the release of, or any impairment
of, or failure to perfect any Lien on or security interest in, any security
held by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party for the Obligations; (iv) any
default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the
Obligations; or (v) any other act or omission that may or might in
any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor or otherwise operate
as a discharge of any Guarantor as a matter of law or equity (other than the
indefeasible payment in full in cash  of all the Obligations). Each
Guarantor expressly authorizes the Secured Parties to take and hold security
for the payment and performance of the Obligations, to exchange, waive or
release any or all such security (with or without consideration), to enforce or
apply such security and direct the order and manner of any sale thereof in
their sole discretion or to release or substitute any one or more other
guarantors or obligors upon or in respect of the Obligations, all without
affecting the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder.

 

(b)                                 To
the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives any
defense based on or arising out of any defense of the Borrower or any other
Loan Party or the enforceability of the Obligations, or any part thereof from  any cause, or the cessation from
any cause of the liability of the Borrower or any other Loan Party, other than
the indefeasible 

 

3

 

payment in
full in cash of all the Obligations. The Collateral Agent and the other Secured
Parties may in accordance with the terms of the Collateral Documents, at
their election, foreclose on any security held by one or more of them by one or
more judicial or nonjudicial sales, accept an assignment of any such security
in lieu of foreclosure, compromise or adjust any part of the Obligations,
make any other accommodation with the Borrower or any other Loan Party or
exercise any other right or remedy available to them against the Borrower or
any other Loan Party, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability
of any Guarantor hereunder except  to the
extent the Obligations have been fully and indefeasibly paid in full in cash. To
the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives any
defense arising out of any such election even though such election operates,
pursuant to applicable law, to impair or to extinguish any right of
reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of such Guarantor against
the Borrower or any other Loan Party, as the case may be, or any security.

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

ARTICLE III

Indemnity, Subrogation and Subordination

 

SECTION 3.01.
Indemnity and Subrogation. In addition to all such rights of indemnity
and subrogation as the Guarantors may have under applicable law (but
subject to Section 3.03), the Borrower agrees that in the event a payment
of an obligation shall be made by any Guarantor under this Agreement, the
Borrower shall indemnify such Guarantor for the full 

 

4

 

amount of such payment and such
Guarantor shall be subrogated to the rights of the Person to whom such payment
shall have been made to the extent of such payment.

 

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

 

SECTION 3.03.
Subordination.

 

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

 

(b)                                 The
Borrower and each Guarantor hereby agrees that upon the occurrence and during
the continuance of an Event of Default and after notice from the Collateral
Agent all Indebtedness owed by it to the Borrower or any Subsidiary shall be
fully subordinated to the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the
Obligations.

 

(c)                                  Each
Guarantor hereby subordinates any and all
debts, liabilities and other obligations owed to such Guarantor by each
other Loan Party in respect of .any
payment by any Guarantor under this Agreement (the “Subordinated Obligations”) to the Obligations to the extent
and in the manner hereinafter set forth in this Section 3.03.

 

(d)                                 Prohibited
Payments, Etc. Except during the continuance of an Event of Default and
after notice from the Collateral Agent, each Guarantor may receive
regularly scheduled payments from any other Loan Party on account of the
Subordinated Obligations. After the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and after notice
from the Collateral Agent, however, unless the Collateral Agent otherwise
agrees, no Guarantor shall demand, accept or take any action to collect any
payment on account of the
Subordinated Obligations.

 

5

 

(e)                                  Prior
Payment of Obligations. In any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law relating
to any other Loan Patty, each Guarantor agrees that the Secured Parties shall be entitled to receive
payment in full in cash of all Obligations before such Guarantor receives
payment of any Subordinated Obligations.

 

(f)                                    Turn-Over.
After the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each
Guarantor shall, if the Collateral Agent so requests, collect, enforce and receive payments on account of the
Subordinated Obligations as trustee
for the Secured Parties and deliver such payments to the Collateral Agent on
account of the Obligations, together with any necessary endorsements or other
instruments of transfer, but
without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of such Guarantor
under the other provisions of this Agreement.

 

(g)                                 Collateral
Agent Authorization. After the occurrence and during the continuance of any
Event of Default and after notice, the Collateral Agent is authorized and
empowered (but without any obligation to so do), in its discretion, (i) in
the name of each Guarantor, to collect and enforce, and to submit claims in
respect of, Subordinated Obligations and to apply any amounts received thereon
to the Obligations, and (ii) to require each Guarantor (A) to collect
and enforce, and to submit claims in respect of, Subordinated Obligations and (B) to
pay any amounts received on such obligations to the Collateral Agent for application to
the Obligations.

failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any L/C
Issuer or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any
other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or
partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or
discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or
further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The
rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the L/C
Issuers and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are
cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would
otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any
departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless
the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section 4.02,
and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific
instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall
not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the
Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender or any L/C Issuer may have
had notice 

 

6

 

or knowledge
of such Default at the time. No notice or demand on any Loan Party in any case
shall entitle any Loan Party to any other or further notice or demand in
similar or other circumstances.

 

(b)                                 Neither
this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified
except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the
Collateral Agent and the Loan Party or Loan Parties with respect to which such
waiver, amendment or modification is to apply, subject to any consent required
in accordance with Section 10.01 of the Credit Agreement.

 

SECTION 4.03.
Collateral Agent’s Fees and Expenses; Indemnification.

 

(a)                                  The
parties hereto agree that the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to
reimbursement of its expenses incurred hereunder as provided in Section 10.04
of the Credit Agreement.

 

(b)                                 Without
limitation of its indemnification obligations under the other Loan Documents,
the Guarantors agree to indemnify the Collateral Agent and the other
Indemnitees (as defined in Section 10.05 of the Credit Agreement) against,
and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages,
liabilities and related expenses, including Attorney Costs for any Indemnitee,
incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection
with, or as a result of the execution, delivery or performance of this
Agreement or any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any
of the foregoing agreements or instruments contemplated hereby, whether or not
any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that
such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that
such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or, related expenses resulted from
the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such Indemnitee or of any
Affiliate, director, officer, employee, counsel, agent or attorney-in-fact of
such Indemnitee.

 

(c)                                  Any
such amounts payable as provided hereunder shall be
additional Obligations secured hereby and by the other Collateral Documents. The
provisions of this Section 4.03 shall remain operative and in full force
and effect regardless of the termination of this Agreement. or any other Loan
Document, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the
repayment of any of the Obligations, the invalidity or unenforceability of any
term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any
investigation made by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured
Party. All amounts due under this Section 4.03 shall be payable within 10
days of written demand therefor.

 

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

 

SECTION 4.05.
Survival of Agreement. All covenants, agreements, representations and
warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in  the
certificates or other instruments prepared or delivered in connection with or
pursuant to this 

 

7

 

Agreement or any other Loan
Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the Lenders and shall
survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any
Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation
made by any Lender or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative
Agent, the Collateral Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender may have had
notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at
the time any credit is extended under the Credit Agreement, and shall continue
in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on
any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under any Loan Document is
outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as
the Commitments have not expired or terminated.

 

SECTION 4.06.
Counterparts; Effectiveness; Several Agreement. This Agreement may be
executed in counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original but all of
which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an
executed signature page to this Agreement by facsimile transmission or
other electronic transmission (i.e. a “PDF” or “TIF”) shall be as effective as
delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Agreement. This
Agreement shall become effective as to any Loan Party when a counterpart hereof
executed on behalf of such Loan Party shall have been delivered to the
Collateral Agent and a counterpart hereof shall have been executed on
behalf of the Collateral Agent, and thereafter shall be binding upon such Loan
Party and the Collateral Agent and their respective permitted successors and
assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of such Loan Party, the Collateral
Agent and the other Secured Parties and their respective, successors and
assigns, except that no Loan Party shall have the right to assign or transfer
its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein (and any such
assignment or transfer shall be void) except as expressly contemplated by this
Agreement or the Credit Agreement. This Agreement shall be construed as a
separate agreement with respect to each Loan Party and may be amended,
modified, supplemented, waived or released with respect to any Loan Party
without the approval of any other Loan Party and without affecting the
obligations of any other Loan Party hereunder.

 

SECTION 4.07.
Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid,
illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be
ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability
without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining
provisions hereof, and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular
jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. The
parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the invalid,
illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect
of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or
unenforceable provisions.

 

SECTION 4.08.
Right of Set-Off. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders
provided by Law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of
Default, each Lender and its Affiliates  is
authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to the
Borrower or any other Loan Party, any such notice being waived by the Borrower
and each Loan Party 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) at any time held by, and other Indebtedness at any time
owing by, such Lender and its Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of
the respective Loan Parties against any and all obligations owing to such Lender and its Affiliates
hereunder or any other Loan Document, now or hereafter existing, 

 

8

 

irrespective of whether or not
such Lender or Affiliate shall have made demand under this Agreement or any
other Loan Document and although such obligations may be contingent or
unmatured or denominated in a currency different from that of the applicable
deposit or Indebtedness. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and
the Collateral Agent after any such set off and application made by such
Lender; provided that the failure to give such notice
shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of
each Lender under this Section 4.08 are in addition to other rights and
remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender may have.

 

SECTION 4.09.
Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.

 

(a)                                  This

(b)                                 Each

State of New York sitting in New York City and of the United States District

agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be

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 any other Loan Document shall affect any
right that the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any L/C Issuer or
any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating
to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any Guarantor, or its
properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

 

(c)                                  Each
of the Loan Parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the
fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which
it may now or  hereafter have to the
laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to
this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph
(b) of this Section 4.09. Each of the parties hereto hereby
irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an
inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such
court.

 

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

 

SECTION 4.10.
WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST
EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY
JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING
TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED
HEREBY 

 

9

 

(WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT,
TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO
REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY
OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK
TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER
PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER
THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 4.10.

 

SECTION 4.11. Headings.
Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein

be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

 

SECTION 4.12.

Lender hereunder and all obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall be
absolute and unconditional irrespective of (a) any lack of validity or
enforceability of the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document, any agreement
with respect to any of the Obligations or any other agreement or instrument
relating to any of the foregoing, (b) any change in the time, manner or
place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Obligations, or
any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from the
Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document, any other agreement or instrument, (c) any
release or amendment or waiver of or consent under or departure from any
guarantee guaranteeing all or any of the Obligations or (d) any other
circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a
discharge of, any Guarantor in respect of the Obligations or this Agreement.

 

SECTION 4.13.
Termination or Release.

 

(a)                                  This
Agreement and the Guaranties made herein shall terminate with respect to all
Obligations when all the outstanding Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in
full (other than Obligations under any Secured Hedge Agreement, Cash Management
Obligations and contingent indemnification obligations not then due and
payable) and the Lenders have no further commitment to lend under the Credit
Agreement, the L/C Obligations have been reduced to zero (unless the L/C
Obligations shall have been collateralized on terms and conditions reasonably
satisfactory to the relevant L/C Issuer following termination of the
Commitments) and the L/C Issuers have no further obligations to issue Letters
of Credit under the Credit Agreement.

 

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

 

(c)                                  Holdings
shall automatically be released from its obligations hereunder upon the
execution and delivery by any Intermediate Holding Company of the Guaranty
Supplement and its becoming a Guarantor hereunder.

 

10

 

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

 

(e)                                  Notwithstanding
anything to contrary set forth in this Agreement, each Cash Management Bank and
each Hedge Bank by the acceptance of the benefits under this Agreement hereby
acknowledge and agree that (i) the guaranties granted under this Agreement
of the Obligations of any Loan Party and its Subsidiaries under any Secured
Hedge Agreement and the Cash Management Obligations shall be automatically
released upon termination of the Commitments and payment in full of all other
Obligations, in each case, unless the Obligations under the Secured Hedge
Agreement or the Cash Management Obligations are due and payable at such time
(it being understood and agreed that this Agreement and the guaranties granted
herein shall survive solely as to such due and payable Obligations and until
such time as such due and payable Obligations have been paid in full) and (ii) any
release of a Guarantor effected in the manner permitted by this Agreement shall
not require the consent of any Hedge Bank or Cash  Management
Bank.

 

SECTION 4.14.
Additional Restricted Subsidiaries and Intermediate Holding Companies. Pursuant
to Section 6.11 of the Credit Agreement, any Intermediate Holding Company
and certain Restricted Subsidiaries of the Loan Parties that were not in
existence or not Restricted Subsidiaries on the date of the Credit Agreement
are required to enter in this Agreement as Guarantors and, in the case of such
Restricted Subsidiaries, Subsidiary Parties, upon becoming Restricted
Subsidiaries or an Intermediate Holding Company. Upon execution and delivery by
the Collateral Agent and a Restricted Subsidiary or Intermediate Holding Company
of a Guaranty Supplement, such Restricted Subsidiary or
Intermediate Holding Company shall become a Guarantor and, in the case of such
Restricted Subsidiary, a Subsidiary Party hereunder with the same force and
effect as if originally named as a Guarantor or a Subsidiary Party, as
applicable, herein. The execution and delivery of any such instrument shall not
require the consent of any other Loan Party hereunder. The rights and
obligations of each Loan Party hereunder shall remain in full force and effect
notwithstanding the addition of any new Loan Party as a party to this
Agreement.

Exhibit I to the 

Guaranty

 

SUPPLEMENT NO.    dated
as of [•],  to the Guaranty dated as of November 20,
2007 among REABLE THERAPEUTICS FINANCE
LLC (to be renamed DJO FINANCE LLC), a Delaware limited liability company (the “Borrower”), REABLE THERAPEUTICS HOLDINGS LLC (to be renamed
DJO HOLDINGS LLC), a Delaware limited liability company (“Holdings”),  the Subsidiaries of Holdings from
time to time party hereto and CREDIT SUISSE, as Collateral Agent.

 

A.                                   Reference
is made to the Credit Agreement dated as of November 20, 2007 (as amended,
supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit
Agreement”),  among the
Borrower,  Holdings, Credit Suisse, as Administrative Agent,
Collateral Agent, Swing Line Lender and an L/C Issuer, and each lender from
time to time party thereto (collectively, the “Lenders”  and individually, a “Lender”).

 

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

 

C.                                     The
Guarantors, have entered into the Guaranty in order to induce the
Lenders to make Loans and the L/C Issuers to issue Letters of Credit. Section 4.14
of the Guaranty provides that any Intermediate Holding Company or additional
Restricted Subsidiaries of the Borrower may become Guarantors and, in the
case of such Restricted Subsidiaries, Subsidiary Parties under the Guaranty by
execution and delivery of an instrument in the form of this Supplement. The
undersigned Intermediate Holding Company or Restricted Subsidiary (the “New
Guarantor”)  is
executing this Supplement in accordance with the requirements of the Credit
Agreement to become a Guarantor and, in the case of any such Restricted Subsidiary,
a Subsidiary Party under the Guaranty in order to induce the Lenders to make
additional Loans and the L/C Issuers to issue additional Letters of Credit and
as consideration for Loans previously made and Letters of Credit previously
issued.

 

Accordingly,
the Collateral Agent and the New Guarantor agree as follows:

 

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

 

SECTION 2.
The New Guarantor represents and warrants to the Collateral Agent and the other
Secured Parties that this Supplement has been duly authorized, executed and
delivered by it and constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation,
enforceable against it in accordance with its terms.

 

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

SECTION 6.
In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Supplement should
be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity,
legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and in
the Guaranty shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby (it being
understood that the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular
jurisdiction shall not in and of itself affect the validity of such provision
in any other jurisdiction). The parties hereto shall endeavor in good faith
negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with
valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to
that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

 

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

 

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