               Section 2.1     Senior
Secured Notes. The Borrower has authorized the issue to the
Lenders of senior secured notes in the aggregate principal amount up to the
Maximum Commitment, to be dated the date of issue thereof, to mature on the
Maturity Date, to bear interest as provided in Section 2.2 below and to be in
the form of Exhibit A hereto (the “Notes”).
The Borrower shall repay the outstanding principal balance of the Notes in full
in cash on the Maturity Date, unless accelerated in accordance with Section
10.2 or redeemed or prepaid in accordance with Section 2.3. The term “Notes” as used herein shall include each
such senior

14

secured note delivered pursuant to any provision of this Agreement and
each such senior secured note delivered in substitution or exchange for, or
otherwise in respect of, any other Note pursuant to any such provision. 

               Section
2.2     Interest and Fees.
The Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Notes at
the rates, time and manner set forth below:

                 (a)     Rate of Interest. Each Note shall bear
interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date issued through
the date such Note is paid in full in cash (whether upon final maturity, by
redemption, prepayment, acceleration or otherwise) at the Current Interest
Rate. Interest on each Note shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year
and actual days elapsed and, subject to Section 2.2(b), shall be payable monthly,
in arrears, on the last day of each calendar month during the period beginning
on the date such Note is issued (the “Issuance
Date”) and ending on, and including, the date on which the
Obligations are paid in full (each, an “Interest
Date”). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, on the
Closing Date, Borrower shall prepay interest that will accrue at the Current
Interest Rate on the principal amount of the Notes from the Closing Date
through February 8, 2010. Such interest shall be deemed fully earned and
non-refundable. 

                 (b)     Interest Payments. Subject to the last
sentence of Section 2.2(a), interest on each Note shall be payable on each
Interest Date or at any such other time the Notes become due and payable
(whether by acceleration, redemption or otherwise) to the record holder of such
Note on the applicable Interest Date. Each Interest Date shall be considered
the last day of an accrual period for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any payment of accrued but
unpaid interest due and owing on any Note shall be made by cash only by wire
transfer of immediately available funds.

                 (c)     Default Rate. Upon the occurrence and
continuance of any Event of Default, the Notes shall bear interest (including
post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on the
unpaid principal amount thereof at the Default Rate from the date of such Event
of Default through and including the date such Event of Default is cured or
waived. In the event that such Event of Default is subsequently cured or
waived, the adjustment referred to in the preceding sentence shall cease to be
effective as of the date of such cure or waiver; provided that interest as calculated and unpaid at the
Default Rate during the continuance of such Event of Default shall continue to
be due to the extent relating to the days after the occurrence of such Event of
Default through and including the date on which such Event of Default is cured
or waived.

                 (d)     Savings
Clause. In no contingency or event shall the interest
rate charged pursuant to the terms of this Agreement exceed the highest rate
permissible under any law which a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a
final determination, deem applicable hereto. In the event that such a court
determines that the Holders have received interest hereunder in excess of the
highest applicable rate, the amount of such excess interest shall be applied
against the principal amount then outstanding under the Notes to the extent
permitted by applicable law, and any excess interest remaining after such
application shall be refunded promptly to the Borrower.

15

                    (e)          Fee.
In the event the Regulatory Consent has not been obtained and evidence thereof
delivered to Agent by the date which is one hundred fifty (150) days after the
Closing Date (i.e., February 4, 2010), if requested by Agent in its sole
discretion, Borrower shall pay to the Agent, for the ratable benefit of the
Lenders on such 150th day, a non-refundable fee in such amount as
Agent requests in its sole discretion (provided that such fee shall not exceed
$700,000).

 with any prepayment of the Notes pursuant to this Section 2.3(b), the
 Borrower shall deliver to the Agent a certificate of an authorized officer
 thereof demonstrating the calculation of the amount of the applicable
 proceeds. In the event that the Borrower shall subsequently determine that
 the actual amount received exceeded the amount set forth in such certificate
 (including as a result of the conversion of non-cash proceeds into cash), the
 Borrower shall promptly make an additional prepayment of the Notes in an
 amount equal to such excess (or applicable percentage thereof), and the
 Borrower shall concurrently therewith deliver to the Agent a certificate of
 an authorized officer thereof demonstrating the derivation of such excess.

Waivable Mandatory Prepayment, the Borrower shall notify the Agent of the

share of such Waivable Mandatory Prepayment and such Holder’s option to refuse

to the Borrower and the Agent of its election to do so on or before the first
Business Day prior to the Required Prepayment Date (it being
understood that any Holder which does not notify the Borrower and the Agent of
its election to exercise such option on or before the first Business Day prior
to the Required

17

Prepayment Date shall be deemed to have elected, as of such
date, not to exercise such option). On the Required Prepayment Date, the
Borrower shall pay to the Agent the amount of the Waivable Mandatory
Prepayment, which amount shall be applied in an amount equal to that portion of
the Waivable Mandatory Prepayment payable to those Holders that have elected
not to exercise such option, to prepay the Notes of such Holders.

of Mandatory Prepayments. All mandatory prepayments made pursuant to
Section 2.3(b) and not waived pursuant to Section 2.3(c) shall be made to the
Holders on a pro rata basis with respect to the outstanding Notes. 

                    Section
2.4          Payments.

to the Notes or other Transaction Document, such payment shall be made in
lawful money of the United States of America by a check drawn on the account or
accounts of the Borrower and sent via overnight courier service to such Person
at such address as previously provided to the Borrower in writing (which
address, in the case of each of the Lenders, shall initially be as set forth on
the Schedule of Lenders attached hereto); provided that (i) any Holder
may elect to receive a payment of cash via wire transfer of immediately
available funds by providing the Borrower with three (3) Business Days’ prior
written notice setting out such request and such Holder’s wire transfer
instructions and (ii) Borrower may elect to make a payment of cash via wire
transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with wire transfer
instructions provided by each Holder upon request therefor. Whenever any amount
expressed to be due by the terms of any Note is due on any day which is not a
Business Day, the same shall instead be due on the next succeeding day which is
a Business Day and, in the case of any Interest Date which is not the date on
which this Note is paid in full in cash, the extension of the due date thereof
shall not be taken into account for purposes of determining the amount of
interest due on such date. Any amount due under the Transaction Documents
(other than principal and interest, if the same are already accruing interest
at the Default Rate), which is not paid when due shall result in a late charge
being incurred and payable by the Borrower in an amount equal to the Default
Rate from the date such amount was due until the same is paid in full in cash
(“Late Charge”). Such Late Charge shall continue to accrue post-petition in
any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law. 

                    Section
2.5          Dispute
Resolution. Except as otherwise provided herein, in the case of

redemption under Section 2.3 or otherwise or any other similar or related
amount, the Borrower shall submit the disputed determinations or arithmetic
calculations via facsimile within three (3) Business Days of receipt, or deemed
receipt, of the applicable notice of dispute to the Agent. If the Agent and the
Holders and the Borrower are unable to agree upon such determination or
calculation within three (3) Business Days of such disputed determination or
arithmetic calculation being submitted to the Agent, then the Borrower shall,
within three (3) Business Days submit via facsimile the disputed determinations
or arithmetic calculations to an independent outside national accounting firm
reasonably agreed to by Agent. The Borrower, at the Borrower’s expense, shall
cause the accountant to perform the determinations or calculations and notify
the Borrower and the Agent of the results no later than five (5) Business Days
from the time it receives the disputed determinations or calculations. Such
accountant’s determination or calculation, as the case may be, shall be binding
upon all parties absent demonstrable error.

                    Section
2.6          Taxes.

                    (a)          Any
and all payments by or on behalf of the Borrower hereunder and under any
Transaction Document shall be made, free and clear of and without deduction for
any and all current or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or
withholdings that are or would be applicable to the Holders, and all
liabilities with respect thereto, excluding (x) income taxes imposed on the net
income of a Holder and (y) franchise taxes imposed on the net income of a
Holder, in each case by the jurisdiction under the laws of which such Holder is
organized or qualified to do business or a jurisdiction or any political
subdivision thereof in which a Holder engages in business activity other than
activity arising solely from the Holder having executed this Agreement and
having enjoyed its rights and performed its obligations under this Agreement or
any Transaction Document (all such nonexcluded taxes, levies, imposts,
deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities, collectively or
individually, being called “Taxes”). If Borrower must deduct any Taxes
from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any other Transaction
Document to a Holder, (x) the sum payable shall be increased by the amount (an
“additional amount”) necessary so that, after making all required deductions
(including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section
2.6), such Holder shall receive an amount equal to the sum it would have
received had no such deductions been made, (y) Borrower shall make such
deductions and (z) Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant
Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

                    (b)          The
Borrower will pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with
applicable law any current or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other
excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies that arise from any payment
made hereunder or under any Transaction Document, or from the execution,
delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or
any Transaction Document that are or would be applicable to the Holders (“Other Taxes”).

                    (c)          The
Borrower agrees to indemnify each Holder
for the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes paid by such Holder and any liability (including
penalties, interest and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees and
expenses)) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes
or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted by the relevant Governmental
Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability prepared
by such Holder absent manifest
error, shall be final conclusive and binding for all purposes. Except to the
extent claimed by Borrower (in good faith) that such certificate contained
manifest error, such indemnification shall be made within thirty (30) days
after the date such Holder makes
written demand therefor. The Borrower shall have the right to receive that
portion of any refund of any Taxes and Other Taxes received by a Holder for which Borrower has
previously paid any additional amount or indemnified such Holder and which leaves the Holder, after Borrower’s receipt
thereof, in no better or worse financial position than if no such Taxes or
Other Taxes had been imposed or additional amounts or indemnification paid to
the Holder. 

                    Section
2.7          Reissuance.

                    (a)          Transfer.
If any Note is to be transferred, the Holder shall surrender such Note to the
Borrower, whereupon the Borrower will forthwith issue and deliver upon the
order of

19

the Holder a new Note (in
accordance with this Section 2.7, registered as the Holder may request,
representing the outstanding principal being transferred by the Holder and, if
less than the entire outstanding principal is being transferred, a new Note (in
accordance with this Section 2.7) to the Holder representing the outstanding
principal not being transferred.

                    (b)          Lost, Stolen
or Mutilated Note. Upon receipt by the Borrower of evidence
reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower of the loss, theft, destruction or
mutilation of any Note and (i) in the case of loss, theft or destruction, upon
delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower (provided,
however, that if the Holder is an institutional investor, the
affidavit of an authorized partner or officer of such Holder setting forth the
circumstances with respect to such loss, theft or destruction shall be accepted
as satisfactory evidence thereof and no indemnity agreement or other security
shall be required), and (ii) in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and
cancellation of the mutilated Note, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to
the Holder a new Note (in accordance with this Section 2.7) representing the
outstanding principal.

                    (c)          Note
Exchangeable for Different Denominations. The Notes are
exchangeable, upon the surrender thereof by the Holder at the principal office
of the Borrower, for a new Note or Notes (in accordance with this Section 2.7)
in principal amounts of at least $250,000) representing in the aggregate the
outstanding principal of the surrendered Note, and each such new Note will
represent such portion of such outstanding principal as is designated by the
Holder at the time of such surrender.

                    (d)          Issuance of
New Notes. Whenever the Borrower is required to issue a new Note
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or the Notes, such new Note (i) shall
be of like tenor with the Note being replaced, (ii) shall represent, as indicated
on the face of such new Note, the principal remaining outstanding (or, in the
case of a new Note being issued pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) of this
Section 2.7, the principal designated by the Holder which, when added to the
principal represented by the other new Notes issued in connection with such
issuance, does not exceed the principal remaining outstanding under the Note
being replaced immediately prior to such issuance of new Notes), (iii) shall
have an issuance date, as indicated on the face of such new Note, which is the
same as the Issuance Date of the Note being replaced, (iv) shall have the same
rights and conditions as the Note being replaced, and (v) shall represent
accrued interest on the principal and Late Charges of the Note being replaced,
from the Issuance Date.

                    Section
2.8          Register.
The Borrower shall maintain at its principal executive office (or such other
office or agency of the Borrower as it may designate by notice to each holder
of Notes), a register for the Notes in which the Borrower shall record the name
and address of the Person in whose name the Notes have been issued (including
the name and address of each transferee) and the principal amount of Notes held
by such Person. The Borrower shall keep the register open and available at all
times during business hours for inspection of any Holder or its legal
representatives. 

                    Section
2.9          Maintenance
of Register. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, the Notes are registered obligations and the right, title, and interest
of each Lender and its assignees in and to such Notes shall be transferable
only upon notation of

20

such transfer in the
Register. The Notes shall only evidence a Lender’s or its assignee’s right,
title and interest in and to the related Notes, and in no event is any such
Note to be considered a bearer instrument or obligation. This Section 2.9 shall
be construed so that the Notes are at all times maintained in “registered form”
within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code and
any related Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder.

                    Section
2.10          Compensation
for Increased Costs and Taxes. In the event that any Holder
shall reasonably determine (which determination shall, absent manifest error,
be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that any law,
treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order, or any change therein or in
the interpretation, administration or application thereof (including the
introduction of any new law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order),
or any determination of a court or governmental authority, in each case that
becomes effective after the date hereof, or compliance by such Holder with any
guideline, request or directive issued or made after the date hereof by any
central bank or other governmental or quasi-governmental authority (whether or
not having the force of law): (i) subjects such Holder (or its applicable lending
office) to any additional Taxes with respect to this Agreement or any of the
other Transaction Documents or any of its obligations hereunder or thereunder
or any payments to such Holder (or its applicable lending office) of principal,
interest, Late Charges, fees or any other amount payable hereunder; (ii)
imposes, modifies or holds applicable any reserve (including any marginal,
emergency, supplemental, special or other reserve), special deposit, compulsory
loan, FDIC insurance or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits
or other liabilities in or for the account of, or advances or loans by, or
other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of
such Holder; or (iii) imposes any other condition (other than with respect to a
Tax matter) on or affecting such Holder or its obligations hereunder; and the
result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Holder of
holding Notes hereunder or to reduce any amount received or receivable by such
Holder with respect thereto; then, in any such case, the Borrower shall
promptly pay to such Holder, upon receipt of the statement referred to in the
next sentence, such additional amount or amounts (in the form of an increased
rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such
Holder in its reasonable discretion shall determine) as may be necessary to
compensate such Holder for any such increased cost or reduction in amounts
received or receivable hereunder. Such Holder shall deliver to the Borrower
(with a copy to the Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable
detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to such Holder
under this Section 2.10, which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon
all parties hereto absent manifest error.

                    Section
2.11          Capital
Adequacy Adjustment. In the event that any Holder shall have
determined that the adoption, effectiveness, phase-in or applicability after
the Closing Date of any law, rule or regulation (or any provision thereof)
regarding capital adequacy, reserve requirements, or similar requirements, or
any change therein or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any
Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation
or administration thereof, or compliance by any Holder with any guideline,
request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the
force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable
agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the
capital of such Holder or any corporation controlling such Holder as a
consequence of, or with reference to, such Holder’s Notes or other obligations
hereunder with respect to the Notes to a level below that which such Holder or
such

21

controlling corporation
could have achieved but for such adoption, effectiveness, phase-in,
applicability, change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of
such Holder or such controlling corporation with regard to capital adequacy),
then from time to time, within five (5) Business Days after receipt by the
Borrower from such Holder of the statement referred to in the next sentence,
the Borrower shall pay to such Holder such additional amount or amounts as will
compensate such Holder or such controlling corporation on an after-tax basis
for such reduction. Such Holder shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to
the Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis
for calculating the additional amounts owed to such Holder under this Section
2.11, which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto
absent manifest error.

LENDER’S REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

          Each
Lender represents and warrants (severally and not jointly) with respect to only
itself that:

                    Section
6.1          No Public
Sale or Distribution. Such Lender is acquiring the Notes for its
own account and not with a view towards, or for resale in connection with, the
public sale or distribution thereof in a manner that would violate the 1933
Act, except pursuant

26

to sales registered or
exempted under the 1933 Act; provided, however, that by making the
representations herein, such Lender does not agree to hold any of the Notes for
any minimum or other specific term and reserves the right to dispose of the
Notes at any time in accordance with or pursuant to a registration statement or
an exemption under the 1933 Act. Such Lender does not presently have any
agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any Person to
distribute any of the Notes.

                    Section
6.2          Investor

which its ownership of property or the nature of the business conducted by it
makes such qualification necessary, except to the extent that the failure to be

Employee Benefit Plan) to the effect that such Employee Benefit Plan is so
qualified and to Borrower’s knowledge, there exists no reasonable basis for the
revocation of such determination or opinion letter. None of the Borrower or any
ERISA Affiliate has (i) any unpaid minimum required contributions under any
Plan, whether or not waived, (ii) any liability under Section 4201 or 4243 of
ERISA for any withdrawal, or partial withdrawal, from any Multiemployer Plan,
(iii) a Pension Plan that is “at risk” within the meaning of Section 430 of the
Code, (iv) received notice from any Multiemployer Plan that it is either in
endangered or critical status within the meaning of Section 432 of the Code or
(v) any liability or knowledge of any facts or circumstances which could result
in any liability to the PBGC, the Internal Revenue Service, the Department of
Labor or any participant in connection with any Employee Benefit Plan (other
than routine claims for benefits under the Employee Benefit Plan).

                    Section
7.28          Investment
Company. None of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is a
“registered investment company” or a company “controlled” by a “registered
investment company” or a “principal underwriter” of a “registered investment
company” as such terms are defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended.

                    Section
7.29          U.S. Real
Property Holding Corporation. None of the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries is, nor has it ever been, a U.S. real property holding corporation
within the meaning of Section 897 of the Code, as amended, and the Borrower
will so certify upon the request of any Lender.

                    Section
7.30          Internal
Accounting and Disclosure Controls. The Borrower and each of its
Subsidiaries maintains a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to
provide reasonable assurance that (i) transactions are executed in accordance
with management’s

35

general or specific
authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit
preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and to maintain
asset and liability accountability, (iii) access to assets or incurrence of
liabilities is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or
specific authorization and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets and
liabilities is compared with the existing assets and liabilities at reasonable
intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any difference. The
Borrower maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined
in Rule 13a-15 under the 1934 Act) that are effective in ensuring that
information required to be disclosed by the Borrower in the reports that it
would be required to file or submit under the 1934 Act after consummation of
the IPO is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time
periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, including, without
limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information
required to be disclosed by the Borrower in the reports that it would be
required to file or submit under the 1934 Act is accumulated and communicated
to the Borrower’s management, including its principal executive officer or
officers and its principal financial officer or officers, as appropriate, to
allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. During the twelve months
prior to the Closing Date, none of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries has
received any notice or correspondence from any accountant relating to any
potential material weakness in any part of the system of internal accounting
controls of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries.

                    Section
7.31          Financial
Statements. Each of the (a) consolidated audited financial
statements of Borrower and its Subsidiaries dated December 31, 2008 and
consolidated unaudited financial statements of Borrower and its Subsidiaries
dated July 31, 2009 for the seven (7) months then ended have been prepared in
accordance with GAAP, consistently applied, during the periods involved (except
(i) as may be otherwise indicated in such financial statements or the notes
thereto, or (ii) in the case of unaudited interim statements, to the extent
they may exclude footnotes or may be condensed or summary statements) and
fairly present in all material respects the consolidated financial position of
the Borrower as of the dates thereof and the results of its operations and cash
flows for the periods then ended (subject, in the case of unaudited statements,
to normal year-end audit adjustments).

7.32          Reserved.

                    Section
7.33          Transactions
With Affiliates. Except (i) as set forth on Schedule 7.33 or
7.43 and (ii) for transactions that have been entered into on terms no less
favorable to the Borrower and its Subsidiaries than those that might be
obtained at the time from a Person who is not an officer, director or employee,
none of the officers, directors or employees of the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries is presently a party to any transaction with the Borrower or any
of its Subsidiaries (other than for ordinary course services as employees,
officers or directors), including any contract, agreement or other arrangement
providing for the furnishing of services to or by, providing for rental of real
or personal property to or from, or otherwise requiring payments to or from any
such officer, director or employee or, to the knowledge of the Credit Parties,
any corporation, partnership, trust or other entity in which any such officer,
director, or employee has a substantial interest or is an officer, director,
trustee or partner.

                    Section
7.34          Acknowledgment
Regarding Lender’s Purchase of Notes. Each of the Credit Parties
acknowledges and agrees that each Lender is acting solely in the capacity of

36

an arm’s length purchaser
with respect to the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated
hereby and thereby and that no Lender is (i) an officer or director of Borrower
or any Subsidiary, (ii) an Affiliate of Borrower or any Subsidiary or (iii) to
the knowledge of the Credit Parties, a “beneficial owner” (as defined for
purposes of Rule 13d-3 of the 1934 Act) of more than 10% of the shares of
Capital Stock of Borrower. Each of the Credit Parties further acknowledges that
no Lender is acting as a financial advisor or fiduciary of Borrower or any
Subsidiary (or in any similar capacity) with respect to the Transaction
Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and any advice
given by a Lender or any of its representatives or agents in connection with
the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby
is merely incidental to such Lender’s purchase of the Notes. Each of the Credit
Parties further represents to each Lender that each Credit Party’s decision to
enter into the Transaction Documents to which it is a party have been based
solely on the independent evaluation by such Person and its respective
representatives.

                    Section
7.36          Registration
Statement. To the knowledge of the Borrower, no facts or
circumstances exist that would inhibit or delay the preparation and filing of
the Registration Statement.

                    Section
7.37          Insurance.
Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries is insured by insurers of recognized
financial responsibility against such losses and risks and in such amounts as
are prudent and customary in the businesses in which the Borrower and
Subsidiaries are engaged. None of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries has
been refused any insurance coverage sought or applied for and none of the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries believe that it will not be able to renew
its existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires or to obtain
similar coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary to continue its
business at a cost that would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

                    Section
7.38          Reserved.

                    Section
7.39          Employee
Relations. None of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is a
party to any collective bargaining agreement or employs any member of a union
in such person’s capacity as a union member or to perform union labor work.
Each of the Credit Parties believes that its relations with its employees are
good. As of the Closing Date, no executive officer of the Borrower or any of
its Subsidiaries has notified Borrower or such Subsidiary that such officer
intends to leave Borrower or such Subsidiary or otherwise terminate such
officer’s employment with Borrower or such Subsidiary. As of the Closing Date,
no executive officer of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, to the
knowledge of the Credit Parties, is, or is now expected to be, in violation of
any material term of any employment contract, confidentiality, disclosure or
proprietary information agreement, non-competition agreement, or any other
contract or agreement or any restrictive covenant. Each of the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries is in compliance with all federal, state, local and foreign laws
and regulations respecting labor, employment and employment practices and
benefits, terms and conditions of employment and wages and hours, except where
failure to be in compliance would not, either individually or in the aggregate,
reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

37

                    Section
7.40          Disclosure.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, all disclosure provided
to the Lenders regarding the Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries, its
business and properties, and the transactions contemplated hereby, including
the Schedules to this Agreement, furnished by or on behalf of each Credit
Party, is true and correct in all material respects and does not contain any
untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact
necessary in order to make the statements made therein, taken as a whole and in
the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not materially
misleading. No event or circumstance has occurred or information exists with
respect to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their business,
properties, prospects, operations or condition (financial or otherwise), which,
under applicable law, rule or regulation, requires public disclosure or
announcement by the Borrower or such Subsidiary but which has not been so
publicly announced or disclosed. The Credit Parties (i) are financially
experienced and sophisticated, (ii) have been represented by competent counsel
in connection with negotiation of the Transaction Documents, which negotiations
have been conducted on an arm’s length basis in good faith, and (iii) are
entering into the Transaction Documents of their own free will without duress
or other unconscionable conduct on the part of Agent or any Lender, the
proceeds of which are being used to refinance indebtedness which has matured
and with respect to which the lender thereunder has expressed an intent to
exercise its rights and remedies. 

                    Section
7.41          Patriot Act.
To the extent applicable, each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries is in
compliance, in all material respects, with (i) the Trading with the Enemy Act,
as amended, and each of the foreign assets control regulations of the United
States Treasury Department and any other enabling legislation or executive
order relating thereto, and (ii) the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing
Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act (Title III
of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)). 

                    Section
7.42          Material
Contracts. Schedule 7.42 contains a true, correct and complete

                       (b)          All
documents, agreements and instruments entered into and/or delivered by or
between any Credit Party and Steven Asman and/or his Affiliates; and

             (c)          All
documents, agreements and instruments entered into and/or delivered by or

maturity of, or purchase, redeem, defease or otherwise acquire or retire for
value any Indebtedness of Borrower or any Subsidiary (or set aside or escrow
any funds for any such purpose), except for (i) payments of principal, interest
and other amounts under (A) the Notes and (B) regularly scheduled non
accelerated payments of Permitted Indebtedness and (ii) Permitted Subordinated
Indebtedness Payments on the Mennen Notes (as defined in the applicable
Affiliate Subordination Agreement); 

                    (d)          other
than reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with the IPO and the
Winncom Acquisition, incur any costs or payments outside of the ordinary course
of business that (i) individually exceeds $25,000, or (ii) in the aggregate
$100,000 per year; provided that
this subsection does not prohibit the use of proceeds as permitted by Section
8.24. 

                 Section
8.8          Mergers;
Acquisitions; Asset Sales. Borrower shall not, and Borrower
shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, (a) be a
party to any merger or consolidation, or Acquisition, or (b) consummate any
Asset Sale other than Permitted 

43

Dispositions; provided however, notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower
may enter into definitive documentation with respect to the Winncom Acquisition
provided that the Winncom Acquisition (and the documentation evidencing the
Winncom Acquisition provides that that the Winncom Acquisition) is consummated
only after (or concurrently with) the payment in full, in cash of all
Obligations hereunder. 

                 Section
8.9          No Further
Negative Pledges. Borrower shall not, and Borrower shall not
permit any of its Subsidiaries to, enter into, assume or become subject to any
agreement prohibiting or otherwise restricting the existence of any Lien upon
any of their properties or assets in favor of Agent or the Holders of Notes as
set forth under the Transaction Documents, whether now owned or hereafter
acquired, or requiring the grant of any security for any obligation if such
property or asset is given as security under the Transaction Documents, except
in connection with any Permitted Liens or any document or instrument governing
any Permitted Liens, provided
that any such restriction contained therein relates only to the property or
asset subject to such Permitted Liens (or proceeds thereof). 

                 Section
8.10          Affiliate
Transactions. Except with respect to any transaction set forth
on Schedule 7.33 or 7.43, Borrower shall not, and Borrower shall not permit any
of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, enter into or permit to exist
any transaction (including the purchase, sale, lease or exchange of any
property or the rendering of any service) with any Affiliate of Borrower or any
Subsidiary, unless such transaction is on terms that are no less favorable to
Borrower or such Subsidiary, as the case may be, than those that might be
obtained at the time from a Person who is not an Affiliate and are fully
disclosed in writing to Agent prior to consummation thereof. 

                 Section
8.11          Insurance.

                    (a)          The
Credit Parties shall keep the Collateral properly housed and insured against
loss or damage by fire, theft, explosion, sprinklers, collision (in the case of
motor vehicles) and such other risks as are customarily insured against by
Persons engaged in businesses similar to that of the Credit Parties, with such
companies, in such amounts, with such deductibles and under policies in such
form as shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Agent. Certificates of
insurance or, if requested by the Agent, original (or certified) copies of such
policies of insurance have been or shall be, no later than the Closing Date, delivered
to the Agent, and shall contain an endorsement, in form and substance
reasonably acceptable to Agent, showing loss under such insurance policies
payable to the Agent, for the benefit of the Holders. Borrower will use
commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that such endorsement, or an
independent instrument furnished to the Agent, shall provide that the insurance
company shall give the Agent at least thirty (30) days’ written notice before
any such policy of insurance is altered or canceled and that no act, whether
willful or negligent, or default of Borrower or any other Person shall affect
the right of the Agent to recover under such policy of insurance in case of
loss or damage. In addition, Borrower shall cause to be executed and delivered to
the Agent no later than the Closing Date an assignment of proceeds of its
business interruption insurance policies. Each Credit Party hereby directs all
insurers under all policies of insurance to pay all proceeds payable thereunder
directly to the Agent. Each Credit Party irrevocably makes, constitutes and
appoints the Agent (and all officers, employees or agents designated by the
Agent) as such Person’s true and lawful attorney (and agent-in-fact) for the
purpose of making, 

44

settling and adjusting claims under such policies of insurance,
endorsing the name of such Person on any check, draft, instrument or other item
of payment for the proceeds of such policies of insurance and making all
determinations and decisions with respect to such policies of insurance, provided however, that if no Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing, such Credit Party may make,
settle and adjust claims involving less than $250,000 in the aggregate without
the Agent’s consent. 

                    (b)          The
Credit Parties shall maintain, at their expense, such public liability and
third-party property damage insurance as is customary for Persons engaged in
businesses similar to that of the Credit Parties with such companies and in
such amounts with such deductibles and under policies in such form as shall be
reasonably satisfactory to the Agent and certificates of insurance or, if
requested by the Agent, original (or certified) copies of such policies have
been or shall be, no later than the Closing Date, delivered to the Agent; each
such policy shall contain an endorsement showing the Agent as additional
insured thereunder and Borrower shall use its commercially reasonable efforts
to ensure that the endorsement provides that the insurance company shall give
the Agent at least thirty (30) days’ written notice before any such policy
shall be altered or canceled. 

                    (c)          If
any Credit Party at any time or times hereafter shall fail to obtain or
maintain any of the policies of insurance required above or to pay any premium
relating thereto, then the Agent, without waiving or releasing any obligation
or default by the Credit Parties hereunder, may (but shall be under no
obligation to) obtain and maintain such policies of insurance and pay such
premiums and take such other actions with respect thereto as the Agent
reasonably deems advisable. Such insurance, if obtained by the Agent, may, but
need not, protect each Credit Parties’ interests or pay any claim made by or
against any Credit Party with respect to the Collateral. Such insurance may be
more expensive than the cost of insurance the Credit Parties may be able to
obtain on their own and may be cancelled only upon the Credit Parties providing
evidence that they have obtained the insurance as required above. All sums
disbursed by the Agent in connection with any such actions, including, without
limitation, court costs, expenses, other charges relating thereto and
reasonable attorneys’ fees, shall constitute part of the obligations due and
owing hereunder, shall be payable on demand by the Credit Parties to the Agent
and, until paid, shall bear interest at the highest rate applicable to Notes
hereunder. 

                 Section
8.12          Corporate
Existence and Maintenance of Properties. Borrower shall, and
shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, maintain and preserve (a) its
existence and good standing in the jurisdiction of its organization and (b) its
qualification to do business and good standing in each jurisdiction where the
nature of its business makes such qualification necessary (other than such
jurisdictions in which the failure to be so qualified or in good standing could
not reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a
Material Adverse Effect). Borrower will, and will cause each of its
Subsidiaries to, maintain or cause to be maintained in good repair, working
order and condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted, all material properties
used or useful in the business of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and from
time to time will make or cause to be made all appropriate repairs, renewals
and replacements thereof. 

                 Section
8.13          Non-circumvention.
Each Credit Party hereby covenants and agrees that neither Borrower nor any of its
Subsidiaries will, by amendment of its articles or  

45

certificate of incorporation, bylaws, or other governing documents, or
through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, scheme
of arrangement, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any other
voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any
of the terms of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, and will at
all times in good faith carry out all of the provisions of this Agreement and
the other Transaction Documents and take all action as may be reasonably
required to protect the rights of the Holders of the Notes. 

                 Section
8.14          Conduct of
Business. The Credit Parties shall not conduct their businesses
in violation of any law, ordinance or regulation of any governmental entity,
except where such violations would not result, either individually or in the
aggregate, in a Material Adverse Effect. The Credit Parties shall not engage in
any line of business other than the businesses engaged in on the Closing Date
and businesses incidental thereto. 

                 Section
8.15          U.S. Real
Property Holding Corporation. None of the Credit Parties shall
become a U.S. real property holding corporation or permit or cause its shares
to be U.S. real property interests, within the meaning of Section 897 of the
Code. 

                 Section
8.16          Compliance
with Laws. The Borrower shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries
to, (i) comply in all material respects with federal, state and other
applicable securities laws, and (ii) comply in all material respects with the
requirements of all other applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders of any
Governmental Authority (including all Environmental Laws). 

                 Section
8.17          Regulatory
Consent. Borrower and RNK shall use their best efforts to obtain
as soon as reasonably possible but in no event later than one hundred fifty
(150) days after the Closing, the Regulatory Consent, and deliver evidence thereof
to Agent. 

                 Section
8.18          IPO.
Borrower shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to consummate the
IPO on or prior to January 31, 2010. 

                 Section
8.19          Reserved.

                 Section 8.20          Additional
Collateral. With respect to any Property acquired after the
Issuance Date by any Credit Party as to which the Agent, for the benefit of the
Holders, does not have a perfected Lien, such Credit Party shall promptly (i)
execute and deliver to the Agent, for the benefit of the Holders, or its agent
such amendments to the Security Documents or such other documents as the Agent,
for the benefit of the Holders, deems necessary or advisable to grant to the
Agent, for the benefit of the Holders, a security interest in such Property and
(ii) take all other actions necessary or advisable to grant to the Agent, for
the benefit of the Holders, a perfected first priority security interest in
such Property, including, without limitation, the filing of Mortgages and UCC
financing statements in such jurisdictions as may be required by the Security
Documents or by law or as may be requested by the Agent. 

                 Section
8.21          Audit
Rights; Field Exams; Appraisals; Meetings.

                    (a)          The
Credit Parties shall, upon reasonable prior written notice (except during the
occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, when such written notice
shall not 

46

be required), subject to reasonable safety and security procedures, and
at the Credit Parties’ sole cost and expense, permit the Agent and each Holder
(or any of their respective designated representatives) up to two (2) times per
year (except during the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, when
no such limits shall exist) to visit and inspect any of the properties of the
Borrower and its Subsidiaries, to examine the books of account of the Borrower
and its Subsidiaries (and to make copies thereof and extracts therefrom), and
to discuss the affairs, finances and accounts of the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries, and to be advised as to the same by their respective officers,
and to conduct examinations and verifications (whether by internal commercial
finance examiners or independent auditors), all at such reasonable times and
intervals as the Agent and the Holders may reasonably request. 

                    (b)          The
Credit Parties shall, upon reasonable prior written notice, subject to
reasonable safety and security procedures, and at the Credit Parties’ sole cost
and expense, permit the Agent and each Holder (or any of their respective
designated representatives) to conduct field exams of the Collateral, all at
such reasonable times and intervals as the Agent and the Holders may reasonably
request. 

                    (c)          The
Credit Parties shall, at Agent’s request and upon reasonable prior written
notice, and at the Credit Parties’ sole cost and expense, obtain an appraisal
of the Collateral from an independent appraisal firm satisfactory to Agent. 

                    (d)          The
Credit Parties will, upon the request of the Agent or Required Holders,
participate in a meeting of the Agent and the Holders once (or more frequently
at Agent’s request at any time an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing during each Fiscal Year to be held at the Borrower’s corporate
offices (or at such other location as may be agreed to by the Borrower and the
Agent) at such time as may be agreed to by the Borrower and the Agent. 

                 Section 8.22          Pledge
of Notes. Each of the Credit Parties acknowledges and agrees
that the Notes may be pledged by a Holder in connection with a bona fide margin
account or other loan or financing arrangement that is secured by the Notes; provided such pledge is made in
compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws. Such pledge of
Notes shall not be deemed to be a transfer, sale or assignment of the Notes
hereunder, and no Holder effecting such pledge of Notes shall be required to
provide any Credit Party with any notice thereof or otherwise make any delivery
to any Credit Party pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction
Document, including, without limitation, Section 6.4 hereof, unless required by
applicable law. Each of the Credit Parties hereby agrees to execute and deliver
such documentation as a pledgee of the Notes may reasonably request in
connection with a pledge of the Notes to such pledgee by Holder. 

                 Section
8.23          Additional
Issuances of Securities. None of the Borrower or any Subsidiary
shall, directly or indirectly, offer, sell, grant any option to purchase, or
otherwise dispose of (or announce any offer, sale, grant or any option to
purchase or other disposition of) any of its debt securities or Equity
Interests, including without limitation any debt, preferred stock or other
instrument or security that may be, at any time during its life, and under any
circumstance, convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of
Equity Interests, convertible securities or debt securities (any such offer,
sale, grant, disposition or announcement 

47

being referred to as a “Subsequent
Placement”) without the prior written consent of the Agent and the
Required Holders; provided, that
notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower may issue (A) shares of Common
Stock or Common Stock Equivalents issued or issuable to directors, officers,
employees or consultants of the Borrower in connection with their service as
directors or officers of the Borrower, their employment by the Borrower or
their retention as consultants by the Borrower pursuant to any benefit plans,
programs or agreements approved by the Borrower’s board of directors or any
committee thereof; (B) shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents issued
(or issuable upon the exercise of rights, options or warrants outstanding from
time to time) to financial institutions, equipment lessors, brokers or similar
persons in connection with commercial credit arrangements, equipment
financings, commercial property lease transactions or similar transactions, (C)
shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents issued in connection with an
acquisition, combination, strategic alliance or similar transaction, (D) shares
of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents issued (or issuable upon exercise
of rights, options or warrants outstanding from time to time) for bona fide
services, (E) shares of Common Stock issued to RNK Holding Company; Wellesley
Leasing, LLC; Doug Denny Brown; Neal Hart; Glenn Pokraka; John Skinner and Fred
Weymss (each, an “RNK Stockholder”)
in accordance with the terms of that certain Stock Issuance and Payment
Agreement dated as of the date hereof by and among the RNK Stockholders and
Borrower, as in effect on the date hereof and (F) shares of Common Stock issued
or issuable upon exercise of rights, options, warrants, notes or other rights
to acquire securities of the Borrower outstanding on the Closing Date,
provided, with respect to each of the issuances described in the foregoing
clauses (A) through (F), no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or
would result therefrom, and so long as, the mandatory prepayment required to be
made pursuant to Section 2.3(b)(iii) is made concurrently therewith.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 8.23 shall prevent the
issuance of Common Stock in connection with the IPO, provided that the IPO is
consummated after (or concurrently with) the payment in full, in cash of all
Obligations hereunder. 

                 Section 8.24          Use
of Proceeds. The Credit Parties will use the proceeds from the
sale of the Notes as set forth on Schedule 8.24 (which shall include the
payment of fees and expenses pursuant to the Fee Letter); provided that, except as expressly set
forth in the Funds Flow Letter, no proceeds from the sale of the Notes shall be
used to pay or repay any Indebtedness, any accrued and unpaid executive officer
salary and/or bonus, or, except as disclosed in writing to Agent prior to the
Closing Date, any accrued and unpaid placement agent’s fees, financial advisory
fees or broker’s commissions. 

                 Section
8.25          Fees.
The Borrower, on behalf of itself and the other Credit Parties, shall pay the
Lenders the fees and expenses set forth in the Fee Letter, and shall reimburse
the Lenders or their designee(s) for reasonable and documented costs and
expenses incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by the
Transaction Documents (including reasonable legal fees and disbursements in
connection therewith, documentation and implementation of the transactions
contemplated by the Transaction Documents and due diligence in connection
therewith), which amounts, less any amounts paid in advance by Borrower, shall
be withheld by each Lender from the purchase price paid by such Lender on the
Closing Date in accordance with the Fee Letter. In addition, the Borrower
shall, within five (5) Business Days of receiving a request from any Lender or
the Agent therefor, reimburse such Lender for any additional reasonable legal
fees incurred post-closing in connection with  

48

perfecting the Lenders’ security interests and any additional filing or
recording fees in connection therewith. The Borrower shall be responsible for
the payment of, and shall pay, any reasonable agent’s fees, financial advisory
fees, or broker’s commissions relating to or arising out of the transactions
contemplated hereby, and shall hold each Lender harmless against, any
liability, loss or expense (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s
fees and out-of-pocket expenses) arising in connection with any claim relating
to any such payment. 

                 Section
8.26          Reserved.

                 Section
8.27          Modification
of Organizational Documents and Certain Documents. The Borrower
shall not, without the prior written consent of the Agent or the Required
Holders, (i) permit the charter, by-laws or other organizational documents of
any Credit Party, or any Material Contract, to be amended or modified in any
material respect (provided that, Borrower may amend its organizational
documents in connection with the IPO, solely to the extent such changes are not
adverse to Agent or the Lenders), or (ii) amend, supplement or otherwise
modify, or waive any rights under, the Affiliate Subordination Agreement. 

                 Section
8.28          Joinder.
The Credit Parties shall notify the Holders prior to the formation or
acquisition of any Subsidiaries. For any Subsidiaries formed or acquired after
the Closing Date, the Credit Parties shall at their own expense, upon formation
or acquisition of such Subsidiary, cause each such Subsidiary to execute an
instrument of joinder (a “Joinder Agreement”)
in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent obligating such
Subsidiary to any or all of the Transaction Documents deemed necessary or
appropriate by the Holders and cause the applicable Person that owns the Equity
Interests of such Subsidiary to pledge to the Holders 100% of the Equity
Interests owned by it of each such Subsidiary formed or acquired after the
Closing Date and execute and deliver all documents or instruments required
thereunder or appropriate to perfect the security interest created thereby. In
the event a Person becomes a Guarantor (a “New Guarantor”) pursuant to the
Joinder Agreement, upon such execution the New Guarantor shall be bound by all
the terms and conditions hereof and the other Transaction Documents to the same
extent as though such New Guarantor had originally executed the Transaction
Documents. The addition of a New Guarantor shall not in any manner affect the
obligations of the other Credit Parties hereunder or thereunder. Each Credit
Party and Lender and the Agent hereto acknowledges that the schedules and
exhibits hereto or thereto may be amended or modified in connection with the
addition of any New Guarantor to reflect information relating to such New
Guarantor. Compliance with this Section 8.28 shall not excuse any violation of
Section 8.8.  

                 Section
8.29          Investments.
Borrower shall not, and Borrower shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to,
make or permit to exist any Investment in any other Person, except the
following: 

                    (a)          Cash
Equivalent Investments; 

                    (b)          bank
deposits in the ordinary course of business; 

49

                    (c)          Investments
in securities of account debtors received pursuant to any plan of
reorganization or similar arrangement upon the bankruptcy or insolvency of such
account debtors; 

                    (d)          advances
made in connection with purchases of goods or services in the ordinary course
of business; 

                    (e)          Investments
owned by the Borrower on the Closing Date as set forth on Schedule 8.29; 

                    (f)          deposits
of cash in the ordinary course of business to secure performance of operating
leases; and 

                    (g)          guaranties
that constitute Permitted Indebtedness. 

                 Section 8.30          Further
Assurances. At any time or from time to time upon the request of
the Agent, each Credit Party will, at its expense, promptly execute,
acknowledge and deliver such further documents and do such other acts and
things as the Agent may reasonably request in order to effect fully the
purposes of the Transaction Documents. In furtherance and not in limitation of
the foregoing, each Credit Party shall take such actions as the Agent may
reasonably request from time to time to ensure that the Obligations are
guaranteed by all Subsidiaries of Borrower and secured by substantially all of
the assets of the Credit Parties and their Subsidiaries. 

ARTICLE 9

CROSS GUARANTY

                 Section
9.1          Cross-Guaranty.
Each Guarantor, jointly and severally, hereby absolutely and unconditionally
guarantees to the Holders and their respective successors and assigns the full
and prompt payment (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise)
and performance of, all Obligations. Each Guarantor agrees that its guaranty
obligation hereunder is a continuing guaranty of payment and performance and
not of collection, that its obligations under this ARTICLE 9 shall not be
discharged until payment and performance, in full, of the obligations under the
Transaction Documents has occurred and all commitments (if any) to lend
hereunder have been terminated, and that its obligations under this ARTICLE 9
shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of, and unaffected by: 

                    (a)          the
genuineness, validity, regularity, enforceability or any future amendment of,
or change in, this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any other
agreement, document or instrument to which any Credit Party is or may become a
party; 

                    (b)          the
absence of any action to enforce this Agreement (including this ARTICLE 9) or
any other Transaction Document or the waiver or consent by the Holders with
respect to any of the provisions thereof; 

                    (c)          the
Insolvency of any Credit Party or Subsidiary; or 

50

                    (d)          any
other action or circumstances that might otherwise constitute a legal or
equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor. 

Each Guarantor shall be regarded, and shall be in the same position, as
principal debtor with respect to the obligations guaranteed hereunder. 

                 Section
9.2          Waivers by
Guarantors. Each Guarantor expressly waives all rights it may
have now or in the future under any statute, or at common law, or at law or in
equity, or otherwise, to compel the Holders to marshal assets or to proceed in
respect of the obligations guaranteed hereunder against any other Credit Party
or Subsidiary, any other party or against any security for the payment and
performance of the obligations under the Transaction Documents before
proceeding against, or as a condition to proceeding against, such Guarantor. It
is agreed among each Guarantor that the foregoing waivers are of the essence of
the transaction contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction
Documents and that, but for the provisions of this ARTICLE 9 and such waivers,
the Holders would decline to enter into this Agreement. 

                 Section
9.3          Benefit of
Guaranty. Each Guarantor agrees that the provisions of this
ARTICLE 9 are for the benefit of the Holders and their respective successors,
transferees, endorsees and assigns, and nothing herein contained shall impair,
as between any other Credit Party and the Holders, the obligations of such
other Credit Party under the Transaction Documents. 

                 Section
9.4          Waiver of
Subrogation, Etc. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
this Agreement or in any other Transaction Document, and except as set forth in
Section 9.7, each Guarantor hereby expressly and irrevocably waives any and all
rights at law or in equity to subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration,
contribution, indemnification or set off and any and all defenses available to
a surety, guarantor or accommodation co-obligor. Each Guarantor acknowledges
and agrees that this waiver is intended to benefit the Holders and shall not
limit or otherwise affect such Guarantor’s liability hereunder or the
enforceability of this ARTICLE 9, and that the Holders and their respective
successors and assigns are intended third party beneficiaries of the waivers
and agreements set forth in this Section 9.4. 

                 Section
9.5          Election of
Remedies. If the Holders may, under applicable law, proceed to
realize their benefits under any of the Transaction Documents, the Agent or any
of the Holders may, at its sole option, determine which of its remedies or
rights it may pursue without affecting any of its rights and remedies under
this ARTICLE 9. If, in the exercise of any of its rights and remedies, any of
the Holders shall forfeit any of its rights or remedies, including its right to
enter a deficiency judgment against any Credit Party or any other Person,
whether because of any applicable laws pertaining to “election of remedies” or
the like, each Credit Party hereby consents to such action by such Holders and
waives any claim based upon such action, even if such action by such Holders
shall result in a full or partial loss of any rights of subrogation that any
Credit Party might otherwise have had but for such action by such Holders. Any
election of remedies that results in the denial or impairment of the right of
the Holders to seek a deficiency judgment against any Credit Party shall not impair
any other Credit Party’s obligation to pay the full amount of the obligations
under the Transaction Documents. 

51

                    Section
9.6          Limitation.
Notwithstanding any provision herein contained to the contrary, each
Guarantor’s liability under this ARTICLE 9 (which liability is in any event in
addition to amounts for which such Borrower is primarily liable under the
Transaction Documents) shall be limited to an amount not to exceed as of any
date of determination the greater of:

                    (a)          the
net amount of all amounts advanced to such Guarantor under this Agreement or
otherwise transferred to, or for the benefit of, such Guarantor (including any
interest and fees and other charges); and

                    (b)          the
amount that could be claimed by the Holders from such Guarantor under this
ARTICLE 9 without rendering such claim voidable or avoidable under Section 548
of Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state Uniform
Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or similar statute
or common law after taking into account, among other things, such Guarantor’s
right of contribution and indemnification from each other Credit Party under
Section 9.7.

                    Section
9.7          Contribution
with Respect to Guaranty Obligations.

                    (a)          To
the extent that any Guarantor shall make a payment under this ARTICLE 9 of all
or any of the obligations under the Transaction Documents (other than financial
accommodations made to that Guarantor for which it is primarily liable) (a “Guarantor
Payment”) that, taking into account all other Guarantor Payments
then previously or concurrently made by any other Guarantor, exceeds the amount
that such Guarantor would otherwise have paid if each Guarantor had paid the
aggregate obligations under the Transaction Documents satisfied by such
Guarantor Payment in the same proportion that such Guarantor’s “Allocable
Amount” (as defined below) (as determined immediately prior to such Guarantor
Payment) bore to the aggregate Allocable Amounts of each of the Guarantor as
determined immediately prior to the making of such Guarantor Payment, then,
following indefeasible payment in full in cash of the obligations under the
Transaction Documents and termination of the Transaction Documents (including
all commitments (if any) to lend hereunder), such Guarantor shall be entitled
to receive contribution and indemnification payments from, and be reimbursed
by, each other Guarantor for the amount of such excess, pro rata based upon
their respective Allocable Amounts in effect immediately prior to such
Guarantor Payment.

                    (b)          As
of any date of determination, the “Allocable Amount” of any Guarantor shall be
equal to the maximum amount of the claim that could then be recovered from such
Guarantor under this ARTICLE 9 without rendering such claim voidable or
avoidable under Section 548 of Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any
applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance
Act or similar statute or common law.

                    (c)          This
Section 9.7 is intended only to define the relative rights of Guarantor and
nothing set forth in this Section 9.7 is intended to or shall impair the
obligations of Credit Parties, jointly and severally, to pay any amounts as and
when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement, including Section 9.1. Nothing contained in this Section 9.7 shall
limit the liability of any Credit Party to pay the financial

52

accommodations made
directly or indirectly to that Credit Party and accrued interest, fees and
expenses with respect thereto for which such Credit Party shall be primarily
liable.

                    (d)          The
parties hereto acknowledge that the rights of contribution and indemnification
hereunder shall constitute assets of the Guarantor to which such contribution
and indemnification is owing.

                    (e)          The
rights of the indemnifying Guarantor against other Guarantor under this Section
9.7 shall be exercisable upon the full and indefeasible payment of the
obligations under the Transaction Documents and the termination of the
Transaction Documents.

                    Section
9.8          Liability
Cumulative. The liability of each Guarantor under this ARTICLE 9
is in addition to and shall be cumulative with all liabilities of each other
Credit Party to the Holders under this Agreement and the other Transaction
Documents to which such Credit Party is a party or in respect of any
obligations under the Transaction Documents or obligation of the other Credit
Party, without any limitation as to amount, unless the instrument or agreement
evidencing or creating such other liability specifically provides to the
contrary.

                    Section
9.9          Stay of
Acceleration. If acceleration of the time for payment of any
amount payable by the Credit Parties under this Agreement is stayed upon the
insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any of the Credit Parties, all such
amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of this Agreement
shall nonetheless be payable jointly and severally by the Credit Parties
hereunder forthwith on demand by the Required Holders.

                    Section
9.10        Benefit to
Borrower. All of the Credit Parties and their Subsidiaries are
engaged in related businesses and integrated to such an extent that the
financial strength and flexibility of each such Person has a direct impact on
the success of each other Person. Each Credit Party and each Subsidiary will
derive substantial direct and indirect benefit from the purchase and sale of
the Notes hereunder.

ARTICLE 10

RIGHTS UPON EVENT OF DEFAULT

                    Section
10.1        Event of

hereunder or under the Notes) or any other Transaction Document, or any other
agreement, document, certificate or other instrument delivered in connection
with the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby;

                    (b)          any

prior to maturity of, any Indebtedness of the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries in

53

excess of $500,000; provided,
that, in the event that any such default or acceleration of indebtedness is
cured or rescinded by the holders thereof prior to acceleration of the Notes,
no Event of Default shall exist as a result of such cured default or rescinded
acceleration;

                    (c)          (i)
the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, pursuant to or within the meaning of

                    (d)          a

any of its Subsidiaries and which judgments are not, within fifteen (15) days
after the entry thereof, bonded, discharged or stayed pending appeal, or are
not discharged within fifteen (15) days after the expiration of such stay,
unless (in the case of a monetary judgment) such judgment is covered by
third-party insurance, so long as the applicable Credit Party or Subsidiary
provides the Holders a written statement from such insurer (which written
statement shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Agent and the Required
Holders) to the effect that such judgment is covered by insurance and such
Credit Party or Subsidiary will receive the proceeds of such insurance within a
reasonable period of time but in no event later than forty five (45) days
following the issuance of such judgment;

                    (f)          any
Credit Party or Pledgor breaches any covenant, or other term or condition of
any Transaction Document or any other agreement with the Agent or any Holder,
except (i) in the case of a breach of a covenant or other term or condition of
any Transaction Document (other than Sections 8.1, 8.2, 8.3(c), 8.4 through
8.10, 8.13, 8.23, 8.24, 8.27, 8.28, 8.29 and 10.5 of this Agreement) which is
curable, only if such breach is not cured within fifteen (15) days, and (ii) a

                    (g)          a
Change of Control occurs;

54

                    (h)          any

default or “Event of Default” or similarly defined term occurs and is

repudiation by any Credit Party, Pledgor or Affiliated Holder of any of its
obligations under any Security Document or Affiliate Subordination Agreement,
or any Security Document or Affiliated Subordination Agreement or any term
thereof shall cease to be, or is asserted by any Credit Party, Pledgor or
Affiliated Holder not to be, a legal, valid and binding obligation of any
Credit Party enforceable in accordance with its terms;

                    (k)          any
Lien against any material portion of the Collateral intended to be created by
any Security Document shall at any time be invalidated, subordinated or
otherwise cease to be in full force and effect, for whatever reason, or any
security interest purported to be created by any Security Document shall cease
to be, or shall be asserted by any Credit Party or Pledgor not to be, a valid,
first priority perfected Lien (to the extent that any Transaction Document
obligates the parties to provide such a perfected first priority Lien, and
except to the extent Permitted Liens are permitted by the terms of the
Transaction Documents to have priority) in any material portion of the
Collateral (except as expressly otherwise provided under and in accordance with
the terms of such Transaction Document);

                    (l)           any
material provision of any Transaction Document shall at any time for any reason
be declared to be null and void, or the validity or enforceability thereof
shall be contested by any Credit Party, Pledgor or Affiliated Holder, or a
proceeding shall be commenced by any Credit Party, Pledgor or Affiliated
Holder, or by any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over such Credit
Party, Pledgor or Affiliated Holder, seeking to establish the invalidity or
unenforceability thereof, or any Credit Party or Pledgor shall deny that it has
any liability or obligation purported to be created under any Transaction
Document;

                    (m)         the
material breach by any Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries of an agreement
or agreements (in each case, other than a Transaction Document) to which it is
a party that involves the payment to or by such Credit Party or Subsidiary,
individually or in the aggregate, of more than $500,000 (whether by set-off or
otherwise) in any six (6) month period; 

                    (n)          the
occurrence of any event which could reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect;

                    (o)          any
Credit Party or Subsidiary liquidates, dissolves, terminates or suspends its
business operations or otherwise fails to operate its business in the ordinary
course; 

                    (p)          if
(i) Richard Koch at any time ceases to be employed by RNK in the same position
and with duties substantially similar to those held as of the Closing Date due
to a termination by RNK without Cause (as such term is defined in the
Employment Agreement dated as of October 12, 2007 by and among Richard Koch,
Borrower and RNK, the “RNK Employment Agreement” or any employment agreement
that replaces the RNK Employment Agreement upon the expiration of its term
(such replacement agreement, the “Replacement RNK

55

Employment Agreement”)),
(ii) Richard Koch at any time ceases to be employed by RNK in the same position
and with duties substantially similar to those held as of the Closing Date due
to either (x) a termination by RNK for Cause (as defined in the RNK Employment
Agreement or the Replacement RNK Employment Agreement, as applicable) or a (y)
voluntary termination by Richard Koch and, solely with respect to this clause
(ii), a permanent replacement with experience and qualifications in the
telecommunications industry appropriate for the position (and who is otherwise
reasonably acceptable to Agent) has not been employed by RNK within thirty (30)
calendar days of such termination or (iii) provided that Richard Koch remains
employed by RNK at the time of its expiration, the RNK Employment Agreement
expires in accordance with its terms and the parties thereto have not entered
into the Replacement RNK Employment Agreement; 

                    (q)         (i)
any material decline or depreciation in the value or market price of the
Collateral (whether actual or reasonably anticipated), which causes the
Collateral, in the sole opinion of Agent acting in good faith, to become
unsatisfactory as to value or character, or which causes the Agent to
reasonably believe that the Obligations are inadequately secured and that the
likelihood for repayment of the Obligations is or will soon be impaired, time
being of the essence, or (ii) any other event or circumstance which causes the
Agent to reasonably believe that the Obligations are inadequately secured and
that the likelihood for repayment of the Obligations is or will soon be impaired,
time being of the essence;

                    (r)          (i)
there occurs one or more ERISA Events which individually or in the aggregate
result(s) in or could reasonably be expected to result in liability of the
Credit Parties or any of their Subsidiaries in excess of $500,000 during the
term hereof; or (ii) there exists any fact or circumstance that could
reasonably be expected to result in the imposition of a Lien pursuant to
Section 430(k) of the Code or ERISA or a violation of Section 436 of the Code; 

                    (s)          any
default or event of default (monetary or otherwise) shall occur with respect to
any Material Contract; 

                    (t)          at
anytime prior to the receipt of the Regulatory Consent, Agent ceases to have a
fully perfected first priority lien on at least fifty-one percent (51%) of the
Equity Interests of Borrower on a fully diluted basis; or

                    (u)          Borrower
or any Subsidiary of Borrower enters into any settlement agreement with respect
to any pending legal matter which requires Borrower or such Subsidiary to make
a payment to a third party in excess of $500,000.

                    Section
10.2          Acceleration
Right.

                    (a)          Promptly
after the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Borrower shall deliver written
notice thereof via email, facsimile and overnight courier (an “Event of
Default Notice”) to the Agent and the Holders. At any time after the
earlier of the Agent’s and the Holders’ receipt of an Event of Default Notice
and the Agent and the Holders becoming aware of an Event of Default which has
not been cured or waived, the Required Holders may require the Borrower to
redeem all or any portion of the Notes (an “Event of Default Redemption”)
by delivering written notice thereof (the “Event of Default Redemption Notice”) to the
Borrower,

56

which Event of Default
Redemption Notice shall indicate the portion of the Notes that the Required
Holders are requiring the Borrower to redeem; provided, that upon the
occurrence of any Event of Default described in Section 10.1(c) or Section
10.1(d), the Notes, in whole, shall automatically, and without any action on
behalf of the Agent or any Holder, be redeemed by the Borrower. All Notes
subject to redemption by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 10.2 shall be
redeemed by the Borrower at a price equal to the outstanding principal amount
of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest and accrued and unpaid Late
Charges, Yield Maintenance Premium and all other amounts due under the
Transaction Documents (the “Event of Default Redemption Price”). 

                    (b)          In
the case of an Event of Default Redemption, the Borrower shall deliver the
applicable Event of Default Redemption Price to the Agent within three (3)
Business Days after the Borrower’s receipt of the Event of Default Redemption
Notice. In the case of an Event of Default Redemption of less than all of the
principal of the Notes, the Borrower shall promptly cause to be issued and
delivered to the Holders new Notes (in accordance with Section 2.7)
representing the outstanding principal which has not been redeemed.

                    Section
10.3          Consultation
Rights. Without in any way limiting any remedy that the Holders
may have, at law or in equity, under any Transaction Document (including under
the foregoing provisions of this ARTICLE 10) or otherwise, upon the occurrence
and during the continuance of any Event of Default, upon the request of the
Agent or the Required Holders, the Credit Parties shall hire or otherwise
retain a consultant, advisor or similar Person acceptable to the Agent to
advise the Credit Parties with respect to their business and operations.

                    Section
10.4          Other Remedies.
The remedies provided herein and in the Notes shall be cumulative and in
addition to all other remedies available under any of the other Transaction
Documents, at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance
and/or other injunctive relief), and nothing herein shall limit the Agent’s or
any Holder’s right to pursue actual and consequential damages for any failure
by the Credit Parties to comply with the terms of this Agreement, the Notes and
the other Transaction Documents. Amounts set forth or provided for herein and
in the Notes with respect to payments and the like (and the computation
thereof) shall be the amounts to be received by the Holders and shall not,
except as expressly provided herein, be subject to any other obligation of the
Credit Parties (or the performance thereof). Each of the Credit Parties
acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder and under the
Notes and the other Transaction Documents will cause irreparable harm to the
Holders and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate. The
Credit Parties therefore agree that, in the event of any such breach or
threatened breach, the Holders shall be entitled, in addition to all other
available remedies, to an injunction restraining any breach, without the
necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being
required.

ARTICLE 11

TERMINATION

          In
the event that the Closing shall not have occurred with respect to a Lender on
or before five (5) Business Days from the date hereof due to the Borrower’s or
such Lender’s

57

failure to satisfy the
conditions set forth in Sections 4.1 and 5.1 (and the non-breaching party’s
failure to waive such unsatisfied condition(s)), the non-breaching party shall
have the option to terminate this Agreement with respect to such breaching
party at the close of business on such date without liability of any party to
any other party; provided, however, if this Agreement is terminated
pursuant to this ARTICLE 11, the Credit Parties shall remain obligated to
reimburse the Lenders for the expenses described in Section 8.25 above.

ARTICLE 12

AGENCY PROVISIONS

                    Section
12.1          Appointment.
Each of the Holders hereby irrevocably designates and appoints Agent as the administrative
agent and collateral agent of such Holder (or the Holders represented by it)
under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents for the term hereof
(and Agent hereby accepts such appointment), and each such Holder irrevocably
authorizes Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this
Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and to exercise such powers and
perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Agent by the terms of
this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, together with such other
powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to
the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents,
the Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly
set forth herein and therein, and no implied covenants, functions,
responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this
Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or otherwise exist against the
Agent. Any reference to the Agent in this Agreement or the other Transaction
Documents shall be deemed to refer to the Agent solely in its capacity as Agent
and not in its capacity, if any, as a Holder. Each Lender hereby consents and
agrees to the execution by Agent on behalf of such Lender of the Affiliate
Subordination Agreement and further agrees to be bound by the terms and
provisions thereof

                    Section
12.2          Delegation
of Duties. The Agent may execute any of its respective duties
under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents by or through agents or
attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all
matters pertaining to such duties. The Agent shall not be responsible for the
negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by the
Agent with reasonable care.

                    Section
12.3          Exculpatory
Provisions. Neither the Agent nor any of its officers,
directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact, Subsidiaries or Affiliates
shall be (i) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it
or such Person under or in connection with this Agreement (except for actions
occasioned by its or such Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct),
or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Holders for any recitals,
statements, representations or warranties made by the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement, the other
Transaction Documents or in any certificate, report, statement or other
document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Agent under or in
connection with, this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or for the
value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of
this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or for any failure of the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to perform its obligations hereunder or
thereunder. The Agent shall not be under any obligation to

58

any Holder to ascertain
or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements
contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or of any other Transaction
Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Borrower or any
of its Subsidiaries.

                    Section
12.4          Reliance by
Agent. The Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully
protected in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, notice, consent,
certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, telecopy, telex or
teletype message, statement, order 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, without limitation, counsel to the Borrower), independent
accountants and other experts selected by the Agent. The Agent may deem and
treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless the
Agent shall have actual notice of any transferee. The Agent shall be fully
justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement and
the other Transaction Documents unless it shall first receive such advice or
concurrence of the Required Holders (or, when expressly required hereby, all
the Holders) as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its
satisfaction by the Holders against any and all liability and expense which may
be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action
except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Agent shall in
all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under
this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents in accordance with a request
of the Required Holders (or, when expressly required hereby, all the Holders),
and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall
be binding upon all the Holders and all future Holders.

                    Section
12.5          Notices of
Default. The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or
notice of the occurrence of any Event of Default hereunder or under any other
Transaction Document unless it has received notice of such Event of Default in
accordance with the terms hereof or thereof or notice from a Holder or the
Borrower referring to this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents
describing such Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of
default.” In the event that the Agent receives such a notice, it shall promptly
give notice thereof to the Holders. The Agent shall take such action with
respect to such Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the
Required Holders; provided that unless and until the Agent shall have received
such directions, the Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action,
or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Event of Default as it
shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Holders, except to the extent
that other provisions of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents
expressly require that any such action be taken or not be taken only with the
consent and authorization or upon the request of the Holders or Required
Holders, as applicable.

                    Section
12.6          Non-Reliance
on the Agent and Other Holders. Each of the Holders expressly
acknowledges that neither the Agent nor any of its respective officers,
directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact, Subsidiaries or Affiliates has
made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Agent
hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower or any
of its Subsidiaries, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or
warranty by the Agent to any Holder. Each of the Holders represents that it has
made and will continue to make, independently and without reliance upon the
Agent or any other Holder, and based on such documents and information as it
shall deem appropriate at the time, its own credit analysis, appraisals and
decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement

59

and the other Transaction
Documents, and such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to
the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and
creditworthiness of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries. Except for notices, reports
and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Holders by the
Agent hereunder or under the other Transaction Documents, the Agent shall not
have any duty or responsibility to provide any Holder with any credit or other
information concerning the business, operations, property, financial and other
condition or creditworthiness of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries which
may come into the possession of the Agent or any of its respective officers,
directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact, Subsidiaries or Affiliates.

                    Section
12.7          Indemnification.
Each of the Holders hereby agrees to indemnify the Agent in its capacity as
such (to the extent not reimbursed by the Credit Parties and without limiting
the obligation of the Credit Parties to do so), ratably according to the
respective amounts of their Notes, from and against any and all liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time
(including, without limitation, at any time following the payment of the Notes)
be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Agent in any way relating to
or arising out of this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents, or any
documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Agent
under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Holder shall
be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations,
losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or
disbursements to the extent they result from the Agent’s gross negligence or
willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section 12.7 shall survive the
payment of the Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder and the
termination of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

                    Section
12.8          The Agent in
Its Individual Capacity. The Agent and its Subsidiaries and
Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any
kind of business with the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries as though the
Agent were not an Agent hereunder. With respect to any Note issued to it, the
Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other
Transaction Documents as any Holder and may exercise the same as though it were
not an Agent, and the term “Holders” shall include the Agent in its individual
capacity.

                    Section
12.9          Resignation
of the Agent; Successor Agent. The Agent may resign as Agent at
any time by giving thirty (30) days advance written notice thereof to the
Holders and the Borrower and, thereafter, the retiring Agent shall be
discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder; provided however, no such
notice shall be required and Agent may resign immediately in the event that any
party to any Affiliate Subordination Agreement exercises its purchase option
set forth therein. Upon any such resignation, the Required Holders shall have
the right to appoint a successor Agent. If no successor Agent shall have been
so appointed by the Required Holders, then the Agent may, on behalf of the
Holders, appoint a successor Agent reasonably acceptable to the Borrower (so
long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing). Upon the
acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such
successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all rights,
powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent. After any retiring Agent’s
resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Section 12.9 shall
continue in effect for its benefit in

60

respect of any actions
taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Agent. If no
successor has accepted appointment as Agent by the date which is thirty (30)
days following a retiring Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Agent’s
resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Required
Holders shall perform all of the duties of the Agent hereunder until such time,
if any, as the Required Holders appoint a successor agent as provided for
above.

                    Section
12.10        Reimbursement
by Holders. To the extent that the Borrower for any reason fails
to indefeasibly pay any amount required under Section 13.1 or Section 13.12 to
be paid by it to the Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), or any Related Party of
any of the foregoing, each Holder severally agrees to pay to the Agent (or any
such sub-agent) or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Holder’s
applicable percentage thereof (determined as of the time that the applicable
unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount, provided
that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or
related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the
Agent (or any such sub-agent) in its capacity as such, or against any Related
Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Agent (or any such sub-agent) in
connection with such capacity. For the purposes of this Section 12.10, the
“applicable percentage” of a Holder shall be the percentage of the total
aggregate principal amount of the Notes represented by the Notes held by such
Holder at such time.

ARTICLE 13

MISCELLANEOUS

                    Section
13.1          Payment of
Expenses. The Borrower shall reimburse Agent and the Holders on
demand for all reasonable costs and expenses, including, without limitation,
legal expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees (whether for internal or outside
counsel), incurred by Agent and the Holders in connection with the (i)
documentation and consummation of the transactions contemplated hereunder and
any other transactions between the Borrower and Agent and the Holders,
including, without limitation, UCC and other public record searches and
filings, overnight courier or other express or messenger delivery, appraisal
costs, surveys, title insurance and environmental audit or review (including
due diligence review) costs; (ii) collection, protection or enforcement of any
rights in or to the Collateral; (iii) collection of any Obligations; (iv)
administration and enforcement of Agent’s and any Holder’s rights under this Agreement
or any other Transaction Document (including, without limitation, any costs and
expenses of any third party provider engaged by Agent or the Holders for such
purposes); (v) costs associated with any refinancing or restructuring of the
Notes whether in the
nature of a “work-out,” in any insolvency or bankruptcy proceeding or
otherwise, and whether or not consummated; (vi) all reasonable out-of-pocket
costs and expenses of the Agent and the Holders and their assignees (including,
without limitation, attorneys’ fees) in connection with the assignment,
transfers or syndication of the Notes; and (vii) from and against all liability
for any intangibles, documentary, stamp or other similar taxes, fees and
excises, if any, including any interest and penalties, and any finder’s or
brokerage fees, commissions and expenses (other than any fees, commissions or
expenses of finders or brokers engaged by the Holders), that may be payable in
connection with the Notes contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction
Documents. The Borrower shall also pay all normal service charges with
respect to all accounts maintained by the Borrower

61

with the Holders and any
additional services requested by Borrower from the Holders. All such costs,
expenses and charges shall constitute Obligations hereunder, shall be payable
by the Borrower to the Holders on demand, and, until paid, shall bear interest
at the highest rate then applicable to Notes hereunder. Without limiting the
foregoing, if (a) any Note is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection
or enforcement or is collected or enforced through any legal proceeding or any
Holder otherwise takes action to collect amounts due under such Note or to
enforce the provisions of such Note or (b) there occurs any bankruptcy,
reorganization, receivership of any Credit Party or other proceedings affecting
creditors’ rights and involving a claim under such Note, then the Borrower
shall pay the costs incurred by such Holder for such collection, enforcement or
action or in connection with such bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership or
other proceeding, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees and
disbursements (including such fees and disbursements related to seeking relief
from any stay, automatic or otherwise, in effect under any Bankruptcy Law).

                    Section
13.2          Governing
Law; Jurisdiction; Jury Trial. All questions concerning the
construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall
be governed by the internal laws of the State of Illinois, without giving
effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of
the State of Illinois or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the
application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of Illinois.
Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the
state and federal courts sitting in Chicago, Illinois, for the adjudication of
any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated
hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to
assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally
subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or
proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit,
action or proceeding is improper. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal
service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit,
action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for
such notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall
constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing
contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process
in any manner permitted by law. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT
IT MAY HAVE, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF
ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR
ANY TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

                    Section
13.3          Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in two or more identical counterparts, all of
which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective
when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to each other
party; provided
that a facsimile signature shall be considered due execution and shall be
binding upon the signatory thereto with the same force and effect as if the
signature were an original, not a facsimile signature.

                    Section
13.4          Headings.
The headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference and shall not
form part of, or affect the interpretation of, this Agreement.

                    Section 13.5          Severability.
If any provision of this Agreement shall be invalid or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the

62

validity or
enforceability of the remainder of this Agreement in that jurisdiction or the
validity or enforceability of any provision of this Agreement in any other
jurisdiction.

                    Section
13.6          Entire
Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement and the other Transaction
Documents supersede all other prior oral or written agreements between the
Lenders, the Borrower, their Affiliates and Persons acting on their behalf with
respect to the matters discussed herein and therein, and this Agreement, the
other Transaction Documents and the instruments referenced herein and therein
contain the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the matters
covered herein and therein and, except as specifically set forth herein or
therein, none of the Credit Parties or any Lender makes any representation,
warranty, covenant or undertaking with respect to such matters. No provision of
this Agreement, the Notes or any of the other Transaction Documents may be
amended or waived other than by an instrument in writing signed by the
Borrower, the Agent and the Required Holders (or by the Agent with the consent
of the Required Holders) (provided, that no amendment or waiver
hereof shall increase any Lender’s obligations hereunder or materially
adversely affect the rights of such Lender hereunder, in either case, without
such Lender’s written consent; and provided, further, no amendment or waiver
shall extend the due date of any payment hereunder or under the Notes, decrease
the amount of interest or other compensation payable hereunder or under the
Notes, or modify Section 8.1 without the consent of the Holders of all Notes),
and any amendment or waiver to this Agreement made in conformity with the
provisions of this Section 13.6 shall be binding on all Lenders and holders of
Securities, as applicable. No such amendment or waiver shall be effective to
the extent that it applies to less than all of the holders of the applicable
Securities then outstanding. No consideration shall be offered or paid to any
Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any
of the Transaction Documents unless the same consideration also is offered to
all of the parties to the Transaction Documents or Holders of Notes, as the
case may be. None of the Credit Parties has, directly or indirectly, made any
agreements with any Lenders relating to the terms or conditions of the
transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents except as set forth in
the Transaction Documents. Without limiting the foregoing, each of the Credit
Parties confirms that, except as set forth in this Agreement, no Lender has
made any commitment or promise or has any other obligation to provide any
financing to the Credit Parties or otherwise.

                    Section
13.7          Notices.
Any notices, consents, waivers or other communications required or permitted to
be given under the terms of this Agreement must be in writing and will be
deemed to have been delivered: (i) upon receipt, when delivered personally;
(ii) upon receipt, when sent by facsimile (provided, confirmation of transmission is
mechanically or electronically generated and kept on file by the sending
party); or (iii) one Business Day after deposit with an overnight courier
service, in each case properly addressed to the party to receive the same. The
addresses and facsimile numbers for such communications shall be:

or to such other address and/or facsimile number and/or to the
attention of such other Person as the recipient party has specified by written
notice given to each other party five days prior to the effectiveness of such
change. Written confirmation of receipt (A) given by the recipient of such
notice, consent, waiver or other communication, (B) mechanically or electronically
generated by the sender’s facsimile machine containing the time, date,
recipient facsimile number and an image of the first page of such transmission
or (C) provided by an overnight courier service shall be rebuttable evidence of
personal service, receipt by facsimile or receipt from an overnight courier
service in accordance with clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) above, respectively. 

                    Section
13.8        Successors and Assigns.
This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties
and their respective permitted successors and assigns, including any purchasers
of the Notes or the Shares. None of the Credit Parties shall assign this
Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written
consent of each of the Holders of the Notes, including by way of a Change of
Control. A Lender may assign some or all of its rights and obligations
hereunder in connection with transfer of any of its Notes without the consent
of the Credit Parties, in which event such assignee shall be deemed to be the
Lender hereunder with respect to such assigned rights and obligations, and the
Credit Parties shall use their best efforts to ensure that such transferee is
registered as a Holder and that any Liens on the Collateral shall be for the
benefit of such Holder (as well as the other Holders of Notes). 

                    Section
13.9        No Third Party
Beneficiaries. This Agreement is intended for the
benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and
assigns, and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be
enforced by, any other Person. 

                    Section
13.10      Survival.
Unless this Agreement is terminated under ARTICLE 11, the representations,
warranties, agreements and covenants of the Credit Parties and the Lenders
contained in the Transaction Documents shall survive the Closing. Each Lender
shall be responsible only for its own representations, warranties, agreements
and covenants hereunder. 

                    Section
13.11      Further Assurances.
Each Credit Party shall do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all
such further acts and things, and shall execute and deliver all such other
agreements, certificates, instruments and documents, as any other party may
reasonably request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes
of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

                    Section
13.12      Indemnification. In
consideration of each Lender’s execution and delivery of the Transaction
Documents and acquiring the Notes thereunder and in addition to all of the
Credit Parties’ other obligations under the Transaction Documents, the Credit
Parties shall jointly and severally defend, protect, indemnify and hold
harmless each Lender and each other Holder of any Notes and all of their
stockholders, partners, members, officers, directors, employees and direct or
indirect investors and any of the foregoing Persons’ agents or other
representatives (including, without limitation, those retained in connection
with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all
actions, causes of action, suits, claims, losses, costs, penalties, fees,
liabilities and damages, and expenses in connection therewith (irrespective of
whether any such Indemnitee is a party to the action for which indemnification
hereunder is sought), and including reasonable attorneys’ fees and
disbursements (the “Indemnified Liabilities”),
incurred by any Indemnitee as a result of, or  

65

arising out of, or relating to (a) any misrepresentation or breach of
any representation or warranty made by any Credit Party in this Agreement or
any other Transaction Documents or any other certificate, instrument or
document contemplated hereby or thereby, (b) any breach of any covenant,
agreement or obligation of any Credit Party contained in this Agreement or any
other Transaction Documents or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated
hereby or thereby, (c) the present or former status of any Credit Party as a
U.S. real property holding corporation for federal income tax purposes within
the meaning of Section 897 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, if
applicable, or (d) any cause of action, suit or claim brought or made against
such Indemnitee by a third party (including for these purposes a derivative
action brought on behalf of any Credit Party) and arising out of or resulting
from (i) the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of this Agreement
or any other Transaction Documents or any other certificate, instrument or
document contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any transaction financed or to be
financed in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, with the proceeds of the
issuance of the Notes, or (iii) the status of such Lender or Holder of the
Notes as a lender to the Borrower pursuant to the transactions contemplated by
the Transaction Documents. To the extent that the foregoing undertakings by the
Credit Parties may be unenforceable for any reason, the Credit Parties shall
make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the
Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law. No Credit
Party shall assert, and each waives, any claim against the Indemnitees on any
theory of liability for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages
arising out of, in connection with or as a result of, this Agreement of any of
the other Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or
thereby. The agreements in this Section 13.12 shall survive the payment of the
Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder and the termination of this
Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. 

                    Section
13.13     No Strict Construction.
The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by
the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rules of strict construction
will be applied against any party. 

                    Section
13.14     Waiver. No
failure or delay on the part of any Holder in the exercise of any power, right
or privilege hereunder or any of the other Transaction Documents shall operate
as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power,
right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other
right, power or privilege. 

                    Section
13.15     Payment Set Aside.
To the extent that any of the Credit Parties makes a payment or payments to the
Lenders hereunder or pursuant to any of the other Transaction Documents or the
Lenders enforce or exercise their rights hereunder or thereunder, and such
payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any part
thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or
preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are required to be
refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to any of the Credit Parties, a trustee,
receiver or any other Person under any law (including, without limitation, any
bankruptcy law, foreign, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of
action), then to the extent of any such restoration 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 enforcement
or setoff had not occurred.  

66

                    Section
13.16     Independent Nature of Lenders’
Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each
Lender under any Transaction Document are several and not joint with the
obligations of any other Lender, and no Lender shall be responsible in any way
for the performance of the obligations of any other Lender under any
Transaction Document. Nothing contained herein or in any other Transaction
Document, and no action taken by any Lender pursuant hereto or thereto, shall
be deemed to constitute the Lenders as a partnership, an association, a joint
venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Lenders
are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations
or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents and each of the
Credit Parties acknowledges that the Lenders are not acting in concert or as a
group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the
Transaction Documents. Each Lender confirms that it has independently
participated in the negotiation of the transactions contemplated hereby with
the advice of its own counsel and advisors. Each Lender shall be entitled to
independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation,
the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of any other Transaction
Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Lender to be joined as
an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

Borrower has requested that Lender amend the Loan Agreement in certain respects
as set forth herein and Lender has agreed to amend the Loan Agreement in

                    NOW
THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual conditions and agreements set forth
in the Loan Agreement and this Amendment, and other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged,

Section 2 below, and in reliance on the representations set forth in Section 3 below,
the Loan Agreement is amended as follows:

                    (a)
Schedule A to the Loan Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the reference to

                    2.
Conditions to Effectiveness. The effectiveness of this Amendment
is subject to the following conditions precedent, each to be in form and
substance satisfactory to Lender:

                    (a)
Lender shall have received a fully executed copy of the Consent and

                    (b)
Lender shall have received each agreement, document and instrument requested by

                    4.
Release. In consideration of the agreements of Lender contained herein
and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of
which is hereby acknowledged, Borrower, on behalf of itself and its successors,

its successors, assigns, or other legal representatives may now or hereafter
own, hold, have or claim to have against the Releasees or any of them for,
upon, or by reason of any circumstance, action, cause or thing whatsoever which
arises at any time on or prior to the day and date of this Amendment,
including, without limitation, for or on account of, or in relation to, or in
any way in connection with any of the Loan Agreement, or any of the other Loan
Documents or transactions thereunder or related thereto. Borrower understands,
acknowledges and agrees that the release set forth above may be pleaded as a
full and complete defense and may be used as a basis for an injunction against
any action, suit or other proceeding which may be instituted, prosecuted or
attempted in breach of the provisions of such release. Borrower agrees that no
fact, event, circumstance, evidence or transaction which could now be asserted
or which may hereafter be discovered shall affect in any manner the final,
absolute and unconditional nature of the release set forth above.

                    5.
Severability. Any provision of this Amendment held
by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable shall not
impair or invalidate the remainder of this Amendment and the effect thereof
shall be confined to the provision so held to be invalid or unenforceable.

                    6.
References. Any reference to the Loan Agreement
contained in any document, instrument or Loan Agreement executed in connection
with the Loan Agreement shall be deemed to be a reference to the Loan Agreement
as modified by this Amendment.

                    7.
Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in one or more
counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which
taken together shall be one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed
counterpart of a signature page of

in this Amendment shall modify and supersede all inconsistent terms and
provisions of the Loan Agreement and shall not be deemed to be a consent to the

Except as expressly modified and superseded by this Amendment, the terms and
provisions of the Loan Agreement are ratified and confirmed and shall continue
in full force and effect.
