RPM INTERNATIONAL INC.

RPM INTERNATIONAL INC. AMENDED AND RESTATED 2004 OMNIBUS EQUITY AND INCENTIVE PLAN

PERFORMANCE-CONTINGENT RESTRICTED STOCK (PCRS)

AND ESCROW AGREEMENT

     THIS PERFORMANCE-CONTINGENT RESTRICTED STOCK (PCRS) AND ESCROW AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”),
is entered into as of this 7th day of October, 2010 (the “Effective Date”), by and
between RPM International Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and ________________ (the
“Grantee”).

WITNESSETH:

     WHEREAS, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Compensation Committee”)
administers the RPM International Inc. Amended and Restated 2004 Omnibus Equity and Incentive Plan
(the “Plan”); and

     WHEREAS, the Compensation Committee has determined to award the Grantee Shares of PCRS, the
vesting of which is contingent upon attainment of performance goals described in Exhibit A hereto;
and

     WHEREAS, the Compensation Committee has determined that the award of PCRS will be subject to
the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement;

     NOW, THEREFORE, the Company and the Grantee agree as follows:

     1. Definitions. Unless otherwise specified in this Agreement, capitalized terms shall
have the meanings attributed to them under the Plan.

     2. Grant of Restricted Stock. As of the Effective Date, the Company grants to the
Grantee, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and subject to the restrictions
in Section 3, _______________ (____________) shares of Common Stock, par value $.01 per share, of
RPM International Inc. (“Restricted Stock”). The Restricted Stock is granted in accordance with,
and subject to, all the terms, conditions and restrictions of the Plan, which is hereby
incorporated by reference in its entirety. The Grantee irrevocably agrees to, and accepts, the
terms, conditions and restrictions of the Plan and this Agreement on his own behalf and on behalf
of any heirs, successors and assigns.

     3. Restrictions on Stock. Except as otherwise provided in Sections 4 and 14, the
Grantee cannot sell, transfer, assign, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of the Restricted Stock or
pledge it as collateral for a loan. In addition, the Restricted Stock will be subject to such
other restrictions as the Compensation Committee deems necessary or appropriate.

1

 

     4. Lapse of Restrictions on Stock. The restrictions described in Section 3 shall
lapse and be of no further force or effect with respect to that percentage of shares that is equal
to the Grantee’s Vested Interest percentage as determined by the Compensation Committee in its sole
and exclusive discretion, pursuant to Section 8. The number of shares to which the restrictions
shall lapse shall be rounded up to the nearest whole number of shares.

     5. Forfeiture. Except as otherwise provided in Sections 6 and 7, the Grantee will
forfeit any interests in the Restricted Stock (i) if his or her employment with the Company, a
Subsidiary or Allied Enterprise terminates before the vesting of Grantee’s interest in the
Restricted Stock, or (ii) with respect to that percentage of the Restricted Stock that is
determined not to be vested by the Compensation Committee in its sole and exclusive discretion,
pursuant to Section 8.

     6. Termination of Employment.

     (a) Death or Total Disability. If the Grantee dies or becomes totally disabled
(within the meaning of the Company’s group long-term disability plan) while an employee of
the Company, its Subsidiaries or Allied Enterprises or within thirty (30) days of the
Grantee’s having ceased to be such an employee by reason of discharge and prior to the
vesting of Grantee’s interest in the Restricted Stock, the Compensation Committee may
provide in its sole and exclusive discretion that the Grantee (or his or her Beneficiary or
Beneficiaries) shall have a Vested Interest in all or a portion of the Restricted Stock.
The Compensation Committee shall determine in its sole and exclusive discretion whether the
Grantee’s employment with the Company, its Subsidiaries and Allied Enterprises has
terminated because of his or her total disability (as defined in the Company’s group
long-term disability plan).

     (b) Reasons Other Than Death or Total Disability. If the Compensation
Committee determines in its sole and exclusive discretion that the Grantee’s employment with
the Company, its Subsidiaries and Allied Enterprises has terminated prior to the vesting of
Grantee’s interest in the Restricted Stock for reasons other than those described in
subsection (a) above, the Grantee will forfeit and shall return to the Company or a third
party designated by the Company all Restricted Stock subject to this Agreement. The Grantee
will have no further interests under this Agreement after such a termination of employment.

     7. Change in Control. If a Change in Control as defined in the Plan has occurred or an
event has occurred that the Board of Directors, in the good faith exercise of its discretion,
determines to be a Change in Control prior to the vesting of Grantee’s interest in the Restricted
Stock, the Grantee’s Vested Interest in the Restricted Stock will immediately become 100%, the
restrictions described in Section 3 will immediately lapse and the shares of stock will become
payable as soon as practicable thereafter, subject to the requirements of Section 10.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a Change in Control, the Compensation Committee may
provide for payment of the Grantee’s interests in the Plan in cash rather than shares of stock.

2

 

     8. Vested Interest. If the Grantee continues to be an employee of the Company,
its Subsidiaries or Allied Enterprises from the Effective Date until the date set forth in Exhibit
A, and the corresponding performance goals described on Exhibit A are met, his or her Vested
Interest percentage will be determined as described on Exhibit A. Except as provided for in
Sections 6 and 7 above, if the Grantee does not continue to be an employee of the Company, its
Subsidiaries or Allied Enterprises until the date set forth in Exhibit A, his or her Vested
Interest will be 0% and he will immediately forfeit the Restricted Stock as provided in Section 5.
So long as the Grantee shall continue to be an employee of the Company, a Subsidiary or Allied
Enterprise, he or she shall not be considered to have experienced a break in continuous employment
because of: (i) any temporary leave of absence approved in writing by the Company, a Subsidiary or
Allied Enterprise; or (ii) any change of duties or position (including transfer to or from a
Subsidiary).

     9. Issuance of Stock. As soon as practicable after lapse of the restrictions, the
Company will deliver to the Grantee (or his or her Beneficiary or Beneficiaries) the shares of
stock to which the Grantee is entitled free and clear of any restrictions (except any applicable
securities law restrictions).

     10. Sale of Shares of Stock to Satisfy Tax Obligations. Prior to issuing shares of
stock pursuant to Section 9, the Compensation Committee will cause the Company to retain a portion
of the stock sufficient to satisfy the Grantee’s projected tax liability (as described in Section
14 of the Plan) resulting from the vesting of the Restricted Stock. The Grantee will provide such
irrevocable Stock Powers or additional information and documentation as the Company deems necessary
to satisfy the Grantee’s projected tax liability. The Compensation Committee will cause the
Company to deliver the funds to the appropriate taxing authorities in satisfaction of such tax
liabilities. The Compensation Committee may, in its sole and exclusive discretion, require that
any distributions to the Grantee’s Beneficiary or Beneficiaries be subject to this tax requirement.

     11. Escrow Agreement. During the term of this Agreement, the Restricted Stock will
remain in the possession of the Company to be held by it in escrow. Alternatively, the Company may
enter into an agreement with a third party whereby such third party will hold the Restricted Stock
in escrow, subject to the terms of the Plan and this Agreement. To facilitate the escrow of the
Restricted Stock and any reconveyance of the Restricted Stock to the Company or a third party upon
forfeiture, the Grantee will execute in blank such irrevocable Stock Powers with respect to the
Restricted Stock as the Company may require.

     12. Stockholder Rights While Restricted Stock is Held in Escrow. During the period
the Restricted Stock is held in escrow and this Agreement has not terminated, and subject to the
Grantee’s execution of irrevocable Stock Powers in accordance with Section 11, the Grantee will be
entitled to vote the Restricted Stock and to receive dividends declared and paid by the Company on
such Restricted Stock.

     13. Section 83(b) Elections. The Grantee will not make an election under Section
83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code to recognize taxable ordinary income in the year the Restricted
Stock is granted. The Grantee understands that by not making such an election, he or

3

 

she will recognize taxable ordinary income at the time the restrictions lapse in an amount
equal to the fair market value of the stock at that time.

     14. Designation of Beneficiary. By properly executing and delivering a Designation of
Beneficiary Form to the Designated Representative at the address listed in Section 17(j), the
Grantee may designate an individual or individuals as his or her Beneficiary or Beneficiaries under
the Plan. In the event that the Grantee fails to properly designate a Beneficiary, his or her
interests under the Plan will pass to the person or persons in the first of the following classes
in which there are any survivors: (i) spouse at the time of death; (ii) issue, per stirpes; (iii)
parents; and (iv) the executor or administrator of estate. Except as the Compensation Committee
may determine in its sole and exclusive discretion, a properly completed Designation of Beneficiary
Form shall be deemed to revoke all prior designations upon its receipt and approval by the
Designated Representative.

     15. Non-Transferability and Legends. The Restricted Stock has not been registered for
resale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), and may not be sold, transferred
or otherwise disposed of unless a registration statement under the Act with respect to the
Restricted Stock has become effective or unless the Grantee establishes to the satisfaction of the
Company that an exemption from such registration is available. The Restricted Stock will bear a
legend stating the substance of such restrictions, as well as any other restrictions the
Compensation Committee deems necessary or appropriate.

     16. Termination of Agreement. This Agreement will terminate on the earliest of: (i)
the date of the Grantee’s termination of employment with the Company, its Subsidiaries and Allied
Enterprises; (ii) the date the restrictions described in Section 3 lapse in accordance with Section
4; or (iii) such date as may be designated by the Company’s Board of Directors or Compensation
Committee. Any terms or conditions of this Agreement that the Company determines are reasonably
necessary to effectuate its purposes will survive the termination of this Agreement.

     17. Miscellaneous Provisions.

	 	a.	 	Effect of Corporate Reorganization or Other Changes
Affecting Number or Kind of Restricted Stock. The provisions of this
Agreement will be applicable to the Restricted Stock and to any Restricted
Stock or other securities which may be acquired by the Grantee as a result of a
liquidation, recapitalization, reorganization, redesignation or
reclassification, split-up, reverse split, merger, consolidation, stock
dividend, combination or exchange of Restricted Stock, exchange for other
securities, a sale of all or substantially all assets or the like. The
Compensation Committee shall appropriately adjust the number and kind of shares
of Restricted Stock under this Agreement to reflect such a change. As used in
this Agreement, the term “Restricted Stock” will be deemed to include any such
Restricted Stock or other securities.

4

 

	 	b.	 	Successors and Legal Representatives. This Agreement
will bind and inure to the benefit of the Company and the Grantee, and their
respective successors, assigns and legal representatives.
	 
	 	c.	 	Integration. This Agreement, together with the Plan,
constitutes the entire agreement between the Grantee and the Company with
respect to the subject matter hereof, and may not be modified, amended, renewed
or terminated, nor may any term, condition or breach of any term or condition
be waived, except pursuant to the terms of the Plan or by a writing signed by
the person or persons sought to be bound by such modification, amendment,
renewal, termination or waiver. Any waiver of any term, condition or breach
thereof will not be a waiver of any other term or condition or of the same term
or condition for the future, or of any subsequent breach.
	 
	 	d.	 	Notice. Any notice relating to this grant must be in
writing.
	 
	 	e.	 	No Employment Right Created. Nothing in this Agreement
will be construed to confer upon the Grantee the right to continue in the
employment or service of the Company, its Subsidiaries or Allied Enterprises,
or to be employed or serve in any particular position therewith, or affect any
right which the Company, its Subsidiaries or an Allied Enterprise may have to
terminate the Grantee’s employment or service with or without cause.
	 
	 	f.	 	Separability. In the event of the invalidity of any
part or provision of this Agreement, such invalidity will not affect the
enforceability of any other part or provision of this Agreement.
	 
	 	g.	 	Section Headings. The section headings of this
Agreement are for convenience and reference only and are not intended to
define, extend or limit the contents of the sections.
	 
	 	h.	 	Amendment, Waiver and Revocation of Terms. The
Compensation Committee may waive any term or condition in this Agreement that
could have been excluded on the date of grant. No such waiver will be deemed
to be a waiver of similar terms under other agreements. The Compensation
Committee may amend this Agreement to include or exclude any provision which
could have been included in, or excluded from, this Agreement on the date of
grant, but only with the Grantee’s written consent. Similarly, the
Compensation Committee may revoke this Agreement at any time except that, after
execution of the Agreement and its delivery to the Designated Representative,
revocation may only be accomplished with the Grantee’s written consent.

          2. REVOLVING CREDIT AND SWING LOAN FACILITIES

     2.1 Revolving Credit Commitments.

          2.1.1 Revolving Credit Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and relying
upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, each Lender holding any Revolving Credit
Commitment severally agrees to make Revolving Credit Loans in either Dollars or one or more
Optional Currencies to the Borrowers at any time or from time to time on or after the date hereof
to the Expiration Date; provided that after giving effect to each such Loan (i) the
aggregate Dollar Equivalent amount of Revolving Credit Loans from such Lender shall not exceed such
Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment minus such Lender’s Ratable Share of the Dollar Equivalent
amount of Letter of Credit Obligations, (ii) the aggregate Dollar Equivalent amount of Revolving
Facility Usage shall not exceed the aggregate Revolving Credit

24

 

Commitments of the Lenders and (iii) no Revolving Credit Loan to which the Base Rate Option
applies shall be made in an Optional Currency. Within such limits of time and amount and subject
to the other provisions of this Agreement, the Borrowers may borrow, repay and reborrow pursuant to
this Section 2.1.

          2.1.2 Discretionary Increase in Revolving Credit Commitments.

          
 
    (i) Increasing Lenders and New Lenders. The Borrowers may, at any time, prior to the
Expiration Date, request that (1) the current Lenders increase their Revolving Credit Commitments
(any current Lender which elects to increase its Revolving Credit Commitment shall be referred to
as an “Increasing Lender”) or (2) one or more new lenders (each a “New Lender”) join this Agreement
and provide a Revolving Credit Commitment hereunder, subject to the following terms and conditions:

          
          (a) No Obligation to Increase. No current Lender shall be obligated to increase its
Revolving Credit Commitment and any increase in the Revolving Credit Commitment by any current
Lender shall be in the sole discretion of such current Lender;

          
          (b) Defaults. There shall exist no Event of Default or, unless consented to by the
Required Lenders, Potential Default on the date of such request and/or the effective date of such
increase, either before or after giving effect to such increase;

          
          (c) Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments. After giving effect to such increase, the
total Revolving Credit Commitments shall not exceed the lesser of (i) $500,000,000 or (ii) the sum
of (A) the total Revolving Credit Commitments as in effect on the date of such request prior to
giving effect to any requested increase, plus (B) $100,000,000 minus the amount of any
prior increase to the Revolving Credit Commitments under this Section 2.1.2;

         
           (d) Resolutions; Opinion. The Borrowers shall deliver to the Administrative Agent on
or before the effective date of such increase the following documents in a form reasonably
acceptable to the Administrative Agent: (1) certifications of their corporate secretaries (or
foreign jurisdiction equivalent) with attached resolutions certifying that the increase in the
Revolving Credit Commitment has been approved by the Borrowers, and (2) opinions of domestic and
foreign counsel (as applicable) in form satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, addressed to the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders addressing the authorization and execution of the Loan
Documents by, and enforceability of the Loan Documents against, the Borrowers;

         
           (e) Notes. The Borrowers shall execute and deliver (1) to each Increasing Lender that
shall so request a replacement revolving credit Note reflecting the new amount of such Increasing
Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment after giving effect to the increase (and the prior Note issued
to such Increasing Lender shall be deemed to be terminated) and (2) to each New Lender a revolving
credit Note reflecting the amount of such New Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment; provided that
such replacement Note shall not be intended to constitute and shall not constitute a novation or
satisfaction of the obligations represented by the prior Note.

25

 

         
           (f) Approval of New Lenders. Any New Lender shall be subject to the approval of the
Administrative Agent (not to be unreasonably withheld or conditioned) and the Company and shall not
be (1) a Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of any Borrower or (2) a natural person. The
Revolving Credit Commitments of any New Lenders and the increasing Revolving Credit Commitments of
any Increasing Lenders, collectively, shall not be less than $25,000,000. The share of each New
Lender located in or organized under the laws of the Netherlands in the Loans and the share of each
New Lender hereunder in the Loans to a Netherlands Borrower shall initially be at least the Dollar
Equivalent of EUR 50,000 (or such higher amount as may be required [at the time of new Lender
becoming a party to this Agreement] in order for the New Lender to qualify as a Professional Market
Party) or such New Lender shall otherwise qualify as a Professional Market Party, and each such New
Lender shall confirm the foregoing on the date on which it becomes a New Lender hereunder by
execution and delivery of its Lender Joinder and Assumption Agreement in which the New Lender
confirms that it is a Professional Market Party.

         
           (g) Increasing Lenders. Each Increasing Lender shall confirm its agreement to
increase its Revolving Credit Commitment pursuant to an acknowledgement in a form acceptable to the
Administrative Agent, signed by it and the Borrowers and delivered to the Administrative Agent at
least three (3) days before the effective date of such increase.

         
           (h) New Lenders—Joinder. Each New Lender shall execute a Lender Joinder in
substantially the form of Exhibit 1.1(L)pursuant to which such New Lender shall join and
become a party to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with a Revolving Credit Commitment in
the amount set forth in such Lender Joinder.

         
      (ii) Treatment of Outstanding Loans and Letters of Credit.

         
           (a) Repayment of Outstanding Revolving Credit Loans; Borrowing of New Revolving Credit
Loans. On the effective date of such increase, at the request of the Administrative Agent, the
Borrowers shall repay all Revolving Credit Loans then outstanding, subject to the Borrowers’
indemnity obligations hereunder, or at the option of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders shall
assign their Revolving Credit Loans to the Increasing Lenders in accordance with their Ratable
Shares after giving effect to the increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments contemplated by this
Section 2.1.2; provided that the Borrowers may borrow new Revolving Credit Loans with a
Borrowing Date on such date. Each of the Lenders shall participate in any new Revolving Credit
Loans made on or after such date in accordance with their respective Ratable Shares after giving
effect to the increase in Revolving Credit Commitments contemplated by this Section 2.1.2.

         
           (b) Outstanding Letters of Credit. On the effective date of such increase, each
Increasing Lender and each New Lender (i) will be deemed to have purchased a participation in each
then outstanding Letter of Credit equal to its Ratable Share of such Letter of Credit and the
participation of each other Lender in such Letter of Credit shall be adjusted accordingly and (ii)
will acquire (and will pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender, in
immediately available funds, an amount equal to) its Ratable Share of all outstanding Participation
Advances.

26

 

          2.1.3 Optional Reductions. The Company shall have the right to terminate or reduce the
Commitments at any time or from time to time, provided that: (i) the Company shall give notice of
each such termination or reduction to the Administrative Agent at least three (3) Business Days
prior to the relevant termination or reduction (which notice of termination or reduction shall
specify the amount of the Commitments to be terminated or reduced); (ii) each partial reduction
shall be in an aggregate amount equal to $10,000,000 or any greater multiple of $5,000,000 and
(iii) no such reduction shall be permitted unless and until, in connection therewith, any mandatory
prepayments required under Section 5.7 [Mandatory Prepayments] have been made. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, such a notice of a complete reduction (non-partial) reduction of and termination of
Commitments (and any corresponding notice of prepayment under Section 5.6) may state that it is
conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be
revoked by the Company by written notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified
effective date stating that such condition has not been satisfied, subject, however, to the
Company’s payment of any breakage compensation or other costs associated with such revoked notice.
Once terminated or, subject to Section 2.1.2, reduced, the Commitments may not be reinstated.

          2.1.4 Swing Loan Commitment.

               2.1.4.1 Swing Loans Generally. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and relying
upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, and in order to facilitate loans and
repayments between Settlement Dates, PNC may, at its option, cancelable at any time for any reason
whatsoever, make swing loans in Dollars (the “Swing Loans”) to the Borrowers at any time or from
time to time after the date hereof to, but not including, the Expiration Date, in an aggregate
principal amount up to but not in excess of $35,000,000 (the “Swing Loan Sublimit”), provided that
after giving effect to each such Loan, the Revolving Facility Usage shall not exceed the Revolving
Credit Commitments; and provided further that a Swing Loan shall not be made if the proceeds
thereof would be used to repay, in whole or in part, any outstanding Swing Loan. Within such
limits of time and amount and subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower may
borrow, repay and reborrow pursuant to this Section 2.1.4.

               2.1.4.2 Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, as a condition to the making of any Swing
Loan, if any Lender is at such time a Defaulting Lender hereunder, PNC may require that
satisfactory arrangements with the Borrowers or such Defaulting Lender be entered into to eliminate
PNC’s risk with respect to such Defaulting Lender (it being understood that PNC would consider the
Borrowers or the Defaulting Lender providing cash collateral to secure the Defaulting Lender’s
Ratable Share of the Swing Loans a satisfactory arrangement).

     2.2 Nature of Lenders’ Obligations with Respect to Revolving Credit Loans. Each
Lender shall be obligated to participate in each request for Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to
Section 2.4 [Revolving Credit Loan Requests; Swing Loan Requests] in accordance with its Ratable
Share. The aggregate Dollar Equivalent of each Lender’s Revolving Credit Loans outstanding
hereunder to the Borrowers at any time shall never exceed its Revolving Credit Commitment minus its
Ratable Share of the outstanding Swing Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations. The obligations of
each Lender hereunder are several. The failure of any Lender to

27

 

perform its obligations hereunder shall not affect the Obligations of the Borrowers to any
other party nor shall any other party be liable for the failure of such Lender to perform its
obligations hereunder. The Lenders shall have no obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans
hereunder on or after the Expiration Date.

     2.3
Facility Fee. The Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent for
the account of each Lender, as consideration for such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitments, a
nonrefundable facility fee (the “Facility Fee”) on the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments,
whether used or unused, for the period from the Closing Date until (but excluding) the Expiration
Date; provided that, if such Lender continues to have any Revolving Credit Loans outstanding after
its Revolving Credit Commitment terminates or expires, then such Facility Fee shall continue to
accrue on the daily outstanding principal amount of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Loans from and
including the date on which its Revolving Credit Commitment terminates or expires until the date on
which such Lender ceases to have any Revolving Credit Loans outstanding. The accrued Facility Fees
pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall be payable quarterly and on the date the Revolving Credit
Commitments are terminated (and, if later, on the date the Revolving Credit Loans shall be repaid
in their entirety); provided that any Facility Fees accruing after the date on which the
Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. The Facility Fee for a particular quarter shall
be set forth on Schedule 1.1(A) under the column entitled “Facility Fee” and shall be based
upon the Debt Rating of the Company as set forth thereon. The foregoing notwithstanding, any
Facility Fee accrued with respect to the Revolving Credit Commitment of a Defaulting Lender during
the period prior to the time such Lender became a Defaulting Lender and unpaid at such time shall
not be payable by the Borrowers so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender except to the
extent that such Facility Fee shall otherwise have been due and payable by the Borrowers prior to
such time; and provided further that no Facility Fee shall accrue with respect to the Revolving
Credit Commitment of a Defaulting Lender so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender.

     2.4 Revolving Credit Loan Requests; Swing Loan Requests.

          2.4.1 Revolving Credit Loan Requests. Except as otherwise provided herein, the
Borrowers may from time to time prior to the Expiration Date request the Lenders to make Revolving
Credit Loans, or renew or convert the Interest Rate Option applicable to existing Revolving Credit
Loans pursuant to Section 4.2 [Interest Periods], by delivering to the Administrative Agent, not
later than 12:00 p.m., (i) three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed Borrowing Date with
respect to the making of Revolving Credit Loans in Dollars to which the Euro-Rate Option applies or

Business Days prior to the proposed Borrowing Date with respect to the making of Revolving Credit
Loans in an Optional Currency (other than Revolving Credit Loans denominated in Canadian dollars or
Euro) or the date of conversion to or renewal of the Euro-Rate Option for Revolving Credit Loans in
an Optional Currency; and (iv) the same Business Day of the proposed Borrowing Date with respect to
the making of a Revolving Credit Loan to which the Base Rate Option applies or the last day of the
preceding Interest Period with respect to the conversion to the Base Rate Option for any Loan, of a
duly completed request

28

 

therefor substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.4.1 or a request by telephone
immediately confirmed in writing by letter, facsimile or telex in such form (each, a “Loan
Request”), it being understood that the Administrative Agent may rely on the authority of any
individual making such a telephonic request without the necessity of receipt of such written
confirmation. Each Loan Request shall be irrevocable and shall specify (i) the aggregate amount of
the proposed Loans (expressed in the currency in which such Loans shall be funded) comprising each
Borrowing Tranche, and, if applicable, the Interest Period, which amount shall be in (x) integral
multiples of $1,000,000 (or the Dollar Equivalent thereof) and not less than $5,000,000 (or the
Dollar Equivalent thereof) for each Borrowing Tranche under the Euro-Rate Option, and (y) integral
multiples of $500,000 and not less than $1,000,000 for each Borrowing Tranche under the Base Rate
Option; (ii) whether the Euro-Rate Option or Base Rate Option shall apply to the proposed Revolving
Credit Loans comprising the applicable Borrowing Tranche; (iii) the currency in which such Loans
shall be funded if the Borrowers are electing the Euro-Rate Option; (iv) in the case of a Borrowing
Tranche to which the Euro-Rate Option applies, an appropriate Interest Period for the Loans
comprising such Borrowing Tranche; and (v) which Borrower is requesting the Revolving Credit Loan.
No Loan made in an Optional Currency may be converted into a Base Rate Loan, a Euro-Rate Loan or a
Loan denominated in a different Optional Currency.

          2.4.2 Swing Loan Requests. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Borrowers may from
time to time prior to the Expiration Date request PNC to make Swing Loans in Dollars by delivery to
PNC not later than 12:00 noon on the proposed Borrowing Date of a duly completed request therefor
substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.4.2 hereto or a request by telephone immediately
confirmed in writing by letter, facsimile or telex (each, a “Swing Loan Request”), it being
understood that PNC may rely on the authority of any individual making such a telephonic request
without the necessity of receipt of such written confirmation. Each Swing Loan Request shall be
irrevocable and shall specify the proposed Borrowing Date and the principal amount of such Swing
Loan, which shall be not less than $500,000 with minimum increments thereafter of $250,000.

     2.5 Making Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Loans; Presumptions by the Administrative
Agent; Repayment of Revolving Credit Loans; Borrowings to Repay Swing Loans.

          2.5.1 Making Revolving Credit Loans. The Administrative Agent shall, promptly after
receipt by it of a Loan Request pursuant to Section 2.4 [Revolving Credit Loan Requests; Swing Loan
Requests], notify the Lenders of its receipt of such Loan Request specifying the information
provided by the Borrowers, including the currency in which the Revolving Credit Loan is requested,
and the apportionment among the Lenders of the requested Revolving Credit Loans as determined by
the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.2 [Nature of Lenders’ Obligations with
Respect to Revolving Credit Loans]. Each Lender shall remit the principal amount of each Revolving
Credit Loan in the requested Optional Currency (or in Dollars if so requested by the Administrative
Agent) to the Administrative Agent such that the Administrative Agent is able to, and the
Administrative Agent shall, to the extent the Lenders have made funds available to it for such
purpose and subject to Section 7.2 [Each Loan or Letter of Credit], fund such Revolving Credit
Loans to the Borrowers in immediately available funds in Dollars or the requested Optional Currency
(as applicable) at the Principal

29

 

Office prior to 2:00 p.m., on the applicable Borrowing Date; provided that if any Lender fails to remit
such funds to the Administrative Agent (or fails to remit such funds in the applicable Optional
Currency) in a timely manner, the Administrative Agent may elect in its sole discretion to fund
with its own funds, including funds in the requested Optional Currency, the Revolving Credit Loans
of such Lender on such Borrowing Date, and such Lender shall be subject to the repayment obligation
in Section 2.5.2 [Presumptions by the Administrative Agent].

          2.5.2 Presumptions by the Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall
have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Loan that such Lender will not
make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Loan, the Administrative
Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with
Section 2.5.1 [Making Revolving Credit Loans] and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make
available to the Borrowers a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made
its share of the applicable Loan available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender
and the Borrowers severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such
corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is
made available to the Borrowers to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent,
at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds
Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking
industry rules on interbank compensation and (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by the
Borrowers, the interest rate applicable to Loans under the Base Rate Option. If such Lender pays
its share of the applicable Loan to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall
constitute such Lender’s Loan. Any payment by the Borrowers shall be without prejudice to any
claim the Borrowers may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the
Administrative Agent.

          2.5.3 Making Swing Loans. So long as PNC elects to make Swing Loans, PNC shall, after
receipt by it of a Swing Loan Request pursuant to Section 2.4.2, [Swing Loan Requests] fund such
Swing Loan to the Borrowers in U.S. Dollars in immediately available funds at the Principal Office
prior to 4:00 o’clock p.m. on the Borrowing Date.

          2.5.4 Repayment of Revolving Credit Loans. Subject to the limitations set forth in
Section 12.14.2, the Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall repay in full the outstanding
principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans together with all outstanding interest thereon and
all fees and other amounts owing under any of the Loan Documents relating thereto on the Expiration
Date or upon the earlier termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments in connection with the
terms of this Agreement.

          2.5.5 Borrowings to Repay Swing Loans. PNC may, at its option, exercisable at any time
for any reason whatsoever, demand repayment of the Swing Loans, and each Lender shall make a
Revolving Credit Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Ratable Share of the aggregate principal
amount of the outstanding Swing Loans, plus, if PNC so requests, accrued interest thereon,
provided that no Lender shall be obligated in any event to make Revolving Credit Loans in
excess of its Revolving Credit Commitment minus its Ratable Share of Letter of Credit Obligations
(to the extent applicable, calculated in Dollar Equivalents). Revolving Credit Loans made pursuant
to the preceding sentence shall bear interest at the Base Rate Option and shall be deemed to have
been properly requested in accordance with Section 2.4.1 [Revolving Credit Loan Requests] without
regard to any of the requirements of that provision. PNC shall

30

 

provide notice to the Lenders (which may be telephonic or written notice by letter, facsimile
or telex) that such Revolving Credit Loans are to be made under this Section 2.5.5 and of the
apportionment among the Lenders, and the Lenders shall be unconditionally obligated to fund such
Revolving Credit Loans (whether or not the conditions specified in Section 2.4.1 [Revolving Credit
Loan Requests] are then satisfied) by the time PNC so requests, which shall not be earlier than
3:00 p.m. on the Business Day next after the date the Lenders receive such notice from PNC.

          2.5.6 Swing Loans Under Cash Management Agreements. In addition to making Swing Loans
pursuant to the foregoing provisions of Section 2.5.3 [Making Swing Loans], without the requirement
for a specific request from the Borrowers pursuant to Section 2.4.2 [Swing Loan Requests], PNC, as
a Swing Loan Lender, may make Swing Loans to the Borrowers in accordance with the provisions of the
agreements between the Company and such Swing Loan Lender relating to the Company’s deposit, sweep
and other accounts at such Swing Loan Lender and related arrangements and agreements regarding the
management and investment of the Company’s cash assets as in effect from time to time (the “Cash
Management Agreements”) to the extent of the daily aggregate net negative balance in the Company’s
accounts which are subject to the provisions of the Cash Management Agreements. Swing Loans made
pursuant to this Section 2.5.6 in accordance with the provisions of the Cash Management Agreements
shall (i) be subject to the limitations as to aggregate amount set forth in Section 2.1.4 [Swing
Loan Commitment], (ii) not be subject to the limitations as to individual amount set forth in
Section 2.4.2 [Swing Loan Requests], (iii) be payable by the Borrowers, both as to principal and
interest, at the rates and times set forth in the Cash Management Agreements (but in no event later
than the Expiration Date), (iv) not be made at any time after such Swing Loan Lender has received
written notice of the occurrence of an Event of Default and so long as such shall continue to
exist, or, unless consented to by the Required Lenders, a Potential Default and so long as such
shall continue to exist, (v) if not repaid by the Borrowers in accordance with the provisions of
the Cash Management Agreements, be subject to each Lender’s obligation pursuant to Section 2.5.5
[Borrowings to Repay Swing Loans], and (vi) except as provided in the foregoing subsections (i)
through (v), be subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Section 2. The Borrowers
acknowledge and agree that each Borrower materially benefits from the arrangements made pursuant to
Section 2.5.6 and the Cash Management Agreements, and each Borrower shall be jointly and severally
liable, subject to Section 12.14 [Foreign Borrowers], for all Obligations, including without
limitation, those arising from the operation of this Section.

     2.6 Notes. The Obligation of the Borrowers to repay the aggregate unpaid principal
amount of the Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Loans made to it by each Lender, together with
interest thereon, shall be evidenced by a revolving credit Note and a Swing Loan Note, dated the
Closing Date payable to the order of such Lender in a face amount equal to the Revolving Credit
Commitment and the Swing Loan Commitment, as applicable, of such Lender.

     2.7 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Loans shall be used (i) to refinance
existing indebtedness for borrowed money, (ii) to finance working capital and capital expenditures;
and (iii) for general corporate purposes (including the payment of fees and expenses related to the
foregoing permitted purposes).

31

 

     2.8 Letter of Credit Subfacility.

          2.8.1 Issuance of Letters of Credit. Each of the Borrowers may at any time prior to
the Expiration Date request the issuance of a standby letter of credit (a “Standby Letter of
Credit”) or Commercial Letter of Credit (each a “Letter of Credit”) which may be denominated in
either Dollars or an Optional Currency on behalf of itself or a Consolidated Subsidiary of the
Company, or the amendment or extension of an existing Letter of Credit, by delivering or having
such other Borrower deliver to the Issuing Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a
completed application and agreement for letters of credit, or request for such amendment or
extension, as applicable, in such form as the Issuing Lender may specify from time to time by no
later than 10:00 a.m. at least five (5) Business Days, or such shorter period as may be agreed to
by the Issuing Lender, in advance of the proposed date of issuance. Promptly after receipt of any
letter of credit application, the Issuing Lender shall confirm with the Administrative Agent (by
telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit
application and if not, such Issuing Lender will provide Administrative Agent with a copy thereof.
Unless the Issuing Lender has received notice from any Lender, Administrative Agent or any
Borrower, at least one day prior to the requested date of issuance, amendment or extension of the
applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions in Section 7 [Conditions of
Lending and Issuance of Letters of Credit] is not satisfied, then, subject to the terms and
conditions hereof and in reliance on the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this Section
2.8, the Issuing Lender or any of the Issuing Lender’s Affiliates will issue a Letter of Credit or
agree to such amendment or extension, provided that each Letter of Credit shall (A) have a maximum
maturity of twelve (12) months from the date of issuance, and (B) in no event expire later than 364
days after the Expiration Date and provided further that in no event shall (i) the Dollar
Equivalent of the Letter of Credit Obligations exceed, at any one time, $100,000,000.00 (the
“Letter of Credit Sublimit”) or (ii) the Revolving Facility Usage exceed, at any one time, the
Revolving Credit Commitments. Each request by the Borrowers for the issuance, amendment or
extension of a Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be a representation by the Borrowers that they
shall be in compliance with the preceding sentence and with Section 7 [Conditions of Lending and
Issuance of Letters of Credit] after giving effect to the requested issuance, amendment or
extension of such Letter of Credit. Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any
amendment to a Letter of Credit to the beneficiary thereof, the applicable Issuing Lender will also
deliver to Borrowers and Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or
amendment. All letters of credit which are identified on Schedule 2.8.1 hereto, which
shall consist of all letters of credit outstanding on the Closing Date, shall be deemed to have
been issued under this Agreement, regardless of which Person is the applicant thereunder.

     If, three (3) days prior to the Expiration Date, any Letter of Credit Obligation for any
reason remains outstanding, Borrowers shall immediately Cash Collateralize the then outstanding
amount of all Letter of Credit Obligations. Each Borrower hereby grants to Administrative Agent,
for the benefit of the Issuing Lender and the Lenders, a security interest in all cash collateral
pledged pursuant to this Section or otherwise under this Agreement.

     Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, no Issuing Lender shall be required to issue any
Letter of Credit, if any Lender is at such time a Defaulting Lender hereunder, unless such Issuing
Lender has entered into satisfactory arrangements with the Borrowers or such Defaulting

32

 

Lender to eliminate the Issuing Lender’s risk with respect to such Defaulting Lender (it being
understood that the Issuing Lender would consider the Borrowers or the Defaulting Lender providing
cash collateral to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing Lender, to secure the
Defaulting Lender’s Ratable Share of the Letter of Credit, a satisfactory arrangement).

     Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the Issuing Lender shall not be under any
obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if (A) any order, judgment or decree of any governmental
authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain the Issuing Lender from
issuing the Letter of Credit, or any Law applicable to the Issuing Lender or any request or
directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any governmental authority with
jurisdiction over the Issuing Lender shall prohibit, or request that the Issuing Lender refrain
from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or the Letter of Credit in particular or shall
impose upon the Issuing Lender with respect to the Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or
capital requirement (for which the Issuing Lender is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in
effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon the Issuing Lender any unreimbursed loss, cost or
expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which the Issuing Lender in good faith
deems material to it; or (B) the issuance of the Letter of Credit would violate one or more
policies of the Issuing Lender applicable to letters of credit generally.

          2.8.2 Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrowers shall pay (i) to the Administrative Agent
for the ratable account of the Lenders (except for Defaulting Lenders) a fee (the “Letter of Credit
Fee”) equal to the Applicable Letter of Credit Fee Rate, and (ii) to the Issuing Lender for its own
account a fronting fee equal to 1⁄8% per annum (in each case computed on the basis of a year of 360
days and actual days elapsed), which fees shall be computed on the Dollar Equivalent daily average
Letter of Credit Obligations and shall be payable quarterly in arrears on each Payment Date
following issuance of each Letter of Credit. The Borrowers shall also pay to the Issuing Lender
for the Issuing Lender’s sole account the Issuing Lender’s then in effect customary fees and
administrative expenses payable with respect to the Letters of Credit as the Issuing Lender may
generally charge or incur from time to time in connection with the issuance, maintenance, amendment
(if any), assignment or transfer (if any), negotiation, and administration of Letters of Credit.

          2.8.3 Disbursements, Reimbursement. Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of
Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to,
purchase from the Issuing Lender a participation in such Letter of Credit and each drawing
thereunder in a Dollar Equivalent amount equal to such Lender’s Ratable Share of the maximum amount
available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit and the amount of such drawing, respectively.

               2.8.3.1 In the event of any request for a drawing under a Letter of Credit by the beneficiary
or transferee thereof, the Issuing Lender will promptly notify the Borrowers and the Administrative
Agent thereof. Provided that it shall have received such notice, the Borrowers shall reimburse
(such obligation to reimburse the Issuing Lender shall sometimes be referred to as a “Reimbursement
Obligation”) the Issuing Lender prior to 12:00 noon on each date that an amount is paid by the
Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit (each such date, a “Drawing Date”) by paying to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender an amount equal to the amount so paid by
the Issuing Lender, in the same

33

 

currency as paid, unless otherwise required by the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender.
In the event the Borrowers fail to reimburse the Issuing Lender (through the Administrative Agent)
for the full amount of any drawing under any Letter of Credit by 12:00 noon on the Drawing Date,
the Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender thereof, and the Borrowers shall be
deemed to have requested that Revolving Credit Loans be made in a Dollar Equivalent amount of such
Reimbursement Obligations by the Lenders under the Base Rate Option to be disbursed on the Drawing
Date under such Letter of Credit, subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Revolving
Credit Commitment and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 7.2 [Each Loan or Letter of
Credit] other than any notice requirements. Any notice given by the Administrative Agent or
Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section 2.8.3.1 may be oral if immediately confirmed in writing;
provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or
binding effect of such notice.

               2.8.3.2 Each Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.8.3.1 make available to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender an amount in Dollars in immediately
available funds equal to its Ratable Share of the Dollar Equivalent amount of the drawing,
whereupon the Lenders shall (subject to Section 2.8.3 [Disbursements, Reimbursement]) each be
deemed to have made a Revolving Credit Loan in Dollars under the Base Rate Option to the Borrowers
in that amount. If any Lender so notified fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for
the account of the Issuing Lender the amount of such Lender’s Ratable Share of such amount by no
later than 2:00 p.m. on the Drawing Date, then interest shall accrue on such Lender’s obligation to
make such payment, from the Drawing Date to the date on which such Lender makes such payment (i) at
a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate during the first three (3) days
following the Drawing Date and (ii) at a rate per annum equal to the rate applicable to Loans under
the Revolving Credit Base Rate Option on and after the fourth day following the Drawing Date. The
failure of any Lender to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing
Lender its Ratable Share of the Dollar Equivalent amount of the drawing shall not relieve any other
Lender of its obligation hereunder to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of
the Issuing Lender its Ratable Share of the Dollar Equivalent amount of the drawing; provided that
no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make available to the
Administrative Agent its Ratable Share of the Dollar Equivalent amount of the drawing. The
Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender will promptly give notice (as described in Section
2.8.3.1 above) of the occurrence of the Drawing Date, but failure of the Administrative Agent or
the Issuing Lender to give any such notice on the Drawing Date or in sufficient time to enable any
Lender to effect such payment on such Drawing Date shall not relieve such Lender from its
obligation under this Section 2.8.3.2.

               2.8.3.3 With respect to any unreimbursed drawing that is not converted into Revolving Credit
Loans in Dollars under the Base Rate Option to the Borrowers in whole or in part as contemplated by
Section 2.8.3.1, because of the Borrowers’ failure to satisfy the conditions set forth in Section
7.2 [Each Loan or Letter of Credit] other than any notice requirements, or for any other reason,
the Borrowers shall be deemed to have incurred from the Issuing Lender a borrowing (each a “Letter
of Credit Borrowing”) in Dollars in the amount of such drawing. Such Letter of Credit Borrowing
shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the rate per
annum applicable to the Revolving Credit Loans under the Base Rate Option. Each Lender’s payment
to the Administrative Agent for the

34

 

account of the Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 2.8.3 [Disbursements, Reimbursement] shall
be deemed to be a payment in respect of its participation in such Letter of Credit Borrowing (each
a “Participation Advance”) from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under
this Section 2.8.3.

          2.8.4 Repayment of Participation Advances.

               2.8.4.1 Upon (and only upon) receipt by the Administrative Agent for the account of the
Issuing Lender of immediately available funds from the Borrowers (i) in reimbursement of any
payment made by the Issuing Lender under the Letter of Credit with respect to which any Lender has
made a Participation Advance to the Administrative Agent, or (ii) in payment of interest on such a
payment made by the Issuing Lender under such a Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent on
behalf of the Issuing Lender will pay to each Lender, in the same funds as those received by the
Administrative Agent, the amount of such Lender’s Ratable Share of such funds, except the
Administrative Agent shall retain for the account of the Issuing Lender the amount of the Ratable
Share of such funds of any Lender that did not make a Participation Advance in respect of such
payment by the Issuing Lender.

               2.8.4.2 If the Administrative Agent is required at any time to return to any Borrower, or to a
trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian, or any official in any Insolvency Proceeding, any portion
of any payment made by any Borrower to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing
Lender pursuant to this Section in reimbursement of a payment made under the Letter of Credit or
interest or fee thereon, each Lender shall, on demand of the Administrative Agent, forthwith return
to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender the amount of its Ratable Share
of any amounts so returned by the Administrative Agent plus interest thereon from the date such
demand is made to the date such amounts are returned by such Lender to the Administrative Agent, at
a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate (or, for any payment in an Optional
Currency, the Overnight Rate) in effect from time to time.

          2.8.5 Documentation. Each Borrower agrees to be bound by the terms of the Issuing
Lender’s application and agreement for letters of credit and the Issuing Lender’s written
regulations and customary practices relating to letters of credit, though such interpretation may
be different from such Borrower’s own. In the event of a conflict between such application or
agreement and this Agreement, this Agreement shall govern. It is understood and agreed that,
except in the case of gross negligence or willful misconduct, the Issuing Lender shall not be
liable for any error, negligence and/or mistakes, whether of omission or commission, in following
any Borrower’s instructions or those contained in the Letters of Credit or any modifications,
amendments or supplements thereto.

          2.8.6 Determinations to Honor Drawing Requests. In determining whether to honor any
request for drawing under any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof, the Issuing Lender shall
be responsible only to determine that the documents and certificates required to be delivered under
such Letter of Credit have been delivered and that they comply on their face with the requirements
of such Letter of Credit.

35

 

          2.8.7 Nature of Participation and Reimbursement Obligations. Each Lender’s obligation
in accordance with this Agreement to make the Revolving Credit Loans or Participation Advances, as
contemplated by Section 2.8.3 [Disbursements, Reimbursement], as a result of a drawing under a
Letter of Credit issued in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and the Obligations of the
Borrowers to reimburse the Issuing Lender upon a draw under such Letter of Credit, shall be
absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the
terms of this Section 2.8 under all circumstances, including the following circumstances:

          (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have
against the Issuing Lender or any of its Affiliates, the Borrowers or any other Person for any
reason whatsoever, or which any Borrower may have against the Issuing Lender or any of its
Affiliates, any Lender or any other Person for any reason whatsoever;

          (ii) the failure of any Borrower or any other Person to comply, in connection with a Letter of
Credit Borrowing, with the conditions set forth in Sections 2.1 [Revolving Credit Commitments], 2.4
[Revolving Credit Loan Requests; Swing Loan Requests], 2.5 [Making Revolving Credit Loans and Swing
Loans; Etc.] or 7.2 [Each Loan or Letter of Credit] or as otherwise set forth in this Agreement for
the making of a Revolving Credit Loan, it being acknowledged that such conditions are not required
for the making of a Letter of Credit Borrowing and the obligation of the Lenders to make
Participation Advances under Section 2.8.3 [Disbursements, Reimbursement];

          (iii) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit;

          (iv) any claim of breach of warranty that might be made by any Borrower or any Lender against
any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit, or the existence of any claim, set-off, recoupment,
counterclaim, crossclaim, defense or other right which any Borrower or any Lender may have at any
time against a beneficiary, successor beneficiary any transferee or assignee of any Letter of
Credit or the proceeds thereof (or any Persons for whom any such transferee may be acting), the
Issuing Lender or its Affiliates or any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with this
Agreement, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transaction (including any
underlying transaction between any Borrower or Consolidated Subsidiaries of a Borrower and the
beneficiary for which any Letter of Credit was procured);

          (v) the lack of power or authority of any signer of (or any defect in or forgery of any
signature or endorsement on) or the form of or lack of validity, sufficiency, accuracy,
enforceability or genuineness of any draft, demand, instrument, certificate or other document
presented under or in connection with any Letter of Credit, or any fraud or alleged fraud in
connection with any Letter of Credit, or the transport of any property or provision of services
relating to a Letter of Credit, in each case even if the Issuing Lender or any of its Affiliates
has been notified thereof;

          (vi) payment by the Issuing Lender or any of its Affiliates under any Letter of Credit against
presentation of a demand, draft or certificate or other document which does not comply with the
terms of such Letter of Credit;

36

 

          (vii) the solvency of, or any acts or omissions by, any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit,
or any other Person having a role in any transaction or obligation relating to a Letter of Credit,
or the existence, nature, quality, quantity, condition, value or other characteristic of any
property or services relating to a Letter of Credit;

          (viii) any failure by the Issuing Lender or any of its Affiliates to issue any Letter of
Credit in the form requested by any Borrower, unless the Issuing Lender has received written notice
from such Borrower of such failure within three Business Days after the Issuing Lender shall have
furnished such Borrower and the Administrative Agent a copy of such Letter of Credit and such error
is material and no drawing has been made thereon prior to receipt of such notice;

          (ix) any adverse change in the business, operations, properties, assets, condition (financial
or otherwise) or prospects of any Borrower or Subsidiaries of a Borrower;

          (x) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by any party thereto;

          (xi) the occurrence or continuance of an Insolvency Proceeding with respect to any Borrower;

          (xii) the fact that an Event of Default or a Potential Default shall have occurred and be
continuing;

          (xiii) the fact that the Expiration Date shall have passed or this Agreement or the
Commitments hereunder shall have been terminated; and

          (xiv) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the
foregoing.

          2.8.8 Indemnity. Each Borrower hereby agrees to protect, indemnify, pay and save
harmless the Issuing Lender and any of its Affiliates that has issued a Letter of Credit from and
against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, taxes, penalties, interest, judgments,
losses, costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of
counsel and allocated costs of internal counsel) which the Issuing Lender or any of its Affiliates
may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of the issuance of any Letter of
Credit, other than as a result of (A) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing
Lender as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or (B)
the wrongful dishonor by the Issuing Lender or any of Issuing Lender’s Affiliates of a proper
demand for payment made under any Letter of Credit, except if such dishonor resulted from any act
or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto government
or Official Body. To the extent the Issuing Lender is not indemnified by the Borrowers, the
Lenders will reimburse and indemnify the Issuing Lender, in proportion to their respective Ratable
Shares, for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims,
actions, judgments, costs, expenses or disbursements of whatsoever kind or nature that may be
imposed on, asserted against, or incurred by the Issuing Lender in performing its respective duties
in any way related to or arising out of the Letter(s) of Credit issued by the Issuing Lender;
provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations,
losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, judgments,

37

 

costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of
the Issuing Lender or an Affiliate of the Issuing Lender.

          2.8.9 Liability for Acts and Omissions. As between any Borrower and the Issuing
Lender, or the Issuing Lender’s Affiliates, such Borrower assumes all risks of the acts and
omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit by, the respective beneficiaries of such Letters
of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Issuing Lender shall not be
responsible for any of the following, including any losses or damages to any Borrower or other
Person or property relating therefrom: (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness
or legal effect of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for an
issuance of any such Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects
invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged (even if the Issuing Lender or its
Affiliates shall have been notified thereof); (ii) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument
transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any such Letter of Credit or the
rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be
invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) the failure of the beneficiary of any such Letter of
Credit, or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred, to comply fully with
any conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit or any other claim of any
Borrower against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit, or any such transferee, or any dispute
between or among any Borrower and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any such transferee;
(iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by
mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (v) errors in
interpretation of technical terms; (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any
document required in order to make a drawing under any such Letter of Credit or of the proceeds
thereof; (vii) the misapplication by the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit of the proceeds
of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; or (viii) any consequences arising from causes beyond
the control of the Issuing Lender or its Affiliates, as applicable, including any act or omission
of any Official Body, and none of the above shall affect or impair, or prevent the vesting of, any
of the Issuing Lender’s or its Affiliates rights or powers hereunder. Nothing in the preceding
sentence shall relieve the Issuing Lender from liability for the Issuing Lender’s gross negligence
or willful misconduct in connection with actions or omissions described in such clauses (i) through
(viii) of such sentence. In no event shall the Issuing Lender or its Affiliates be liable to any
Borrower for any indirect, consequential, incidental, punitive, exemplary or special damages or
expenses (including without limitation attorneys’ fees), or for any damages resulting from any
change in the value of any property relating to a Letter of Credit.

          Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Issuing Lender and each of its
Affiliates (i) may rely on any oral or other communication believed in good faith by the Issuing
Lender or such Affiliate to have been authorized or given by or on behalf of the applicant for a
Letter of Credit, (ii) may honor any presentation if the documents presented appear on their face
substantially to comply with the terms and conditions of the relevant Letter of Credit; (iii) may
honor a previously dishonored presentation under a Letter of Credit, whether such dishonor was
pursuant to a court order, to settle or compromise any claim of wrongful dishonor, or otherwise,
and shall be entitled to reimbursement to the same extent as if such presentation had initially
been honored, together with any interest paid by the Issuing Lender or its Affiliate; (iv) may
honor any drawing that is payable upon presentation of a statement advising negotiation or payment,
upon receipt of such statement (even if such statement indicates that a draft or other

38

 

document is being delivered separately), and shall not be liable for any failure of any such
draft or other document to arrive, or to conform in any way with the relevant Letter of Credit; (v)
may pay any paying or negotiating bank claiming that it rightfully honored under the laws or
practices of the place where such bank is located; and (vi) may settle or adjust any claim or
demand made on the Issuing Lender or its Affiliate in any way related to any order issued at the
applicant’s request to an air carrier, a letter of guarantee or of indemnity issued to a carrier or
any similar document (each an “Order”) and honor any drawing in connection with any Letter of
Credit that is the subject of such Order, notwithstanding that any drafts or other documents
presented in connection with such Letter of Credit fail to conform in any way with such Letter of
Credit.

          In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific provisions set forth above,
any action taken or omitted by the Issuing Lender or its Affiliates under or in connection with the
Letters of Credit issued by it or any documents and certificates delivered thereunder, if taken or
omitted in good faith, shall not put the Issuing Lender or its Affiliates under any resulting
liability to the Borrowers or any Lender.

          2.8.10 Issuing Lender Reporting Requirements. Any Issuing Lender other than PNC
shall, on the first Business Day of each month, provide to Administrative Agent and Borrowers a
schedule of the Letters of Credit issued by it, in form and substance satisfactory to
Administrative Agent, showing the date of issuance of each Letter of Credit, the account party (if
applicable), the original face amount (if any), and the expiration date of any Letter of Credit of
such Lender outstanding at any time during the preceding month, and any other information relating
to such Letters of Credit that the Administrative Agent may request.

     2.9 Utilization of Commitments in Optional Currencies.

          2.9.1 Periodic Computations of Dollar Equivalent Amounts of Revolving Credit Loans and Letters
of Credit Outstanding; Repayment in Same Currency. For purposes of determining utilization of
the Revolving Credit Commitments, the Administrative Agent will determine the Dollar Equivalent
amount of (i) the proposed Revolving Credit Loans and Letters of Credit to be denominated in an
Optional Currency as of the requested Borrowing Date or date of issuance, as the case may be, (ii)
the outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations denominated in an Optional Currency as of the last
Business Day of each month, and (iii) the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans denominated in an
Optional Currency as of the end of each Interest Period (each such date under clauses (i) through
(iii), and any other date on which the Administrative Agent determines it is necessary or advisable
to make such computation, in its sole discretion, is referred to as a “Computation Date”). Unless
otherwise provided in this Agreement or agreed to by the Administrative Agent and the Company, each
Loan and Reimbursement Obligation shall be repaid or prepaid in the same currency in which the Loan
or Reimbursement Obligation was made.

          2.9.2 Notices From Lenders That Optional Currencies Are Unavailable to Fund New Loans. The
Lenders shall be under no obligation to make the Revolving Credit Loans requested by the Borrowers
which are denominated in an Optional Currency if any Lender notifies the Administrative Agent by
5:00 p.m. four (4) Business Days prior to the Borrowing Date for such Revolving Credit Loans that
such Lender cannot provide its Revolving Credit Ratable Share of such Revolving Credit Loans in
such Optional Currency. In the event the

39

 

Administrative Agent timely receives a notice from a Lender pursuant to the preceding sentence, the
Administrative Agent will notify the Borrowers no later than 12:00 noon three (3) Business Days
prior to the Borrowing Date for such Revolving Credit Loans that the Optional Currency is not then
available for such Revolving Credit Loans, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly thereafter
notify the Lenders of the same and the Lenders shall not make such Revolving Credit Loans requested
by the Borrowers under their Loan Request.

          2.9.3 Notices From Lenders That Optional Currencies Are Unavailable to Fund Renewals of the
Euro-Rate Option. If the Borrowers deliver a Loan Request requesting that the Lenders renew
the Euro-Rate Option with respect to an outstanding Borrowing Tranche of Revolving Credit Loans
denominated in an Optional Currency, the Lenders shall be under no obligation to renew such
Euro-Rate Option if any Lender delivers to the Administrative Agent a notice by 5:00 p.m. four (4)
Business Days prior to the effective date of such renewal that such Lender cannot continue to
provide Revolving Credit Loans in such Optional Currency. In the event the Administrative Agent
timely receives a notice from a Lender pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent
will notify the Borrowers no later than 12:00 noon three (3) Business Days prior to the renewal
date that the renewal of such Revolving Credit Loans in such Optional Currency is not then
available, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly thereafter notify the Lenders of the same.
If the Administrative Agent shall have so notified the Borrowers that any such continuation of such
Revolving Credit Loans in such Optional Currency is not then available, any notice of renewal with
respect thereto shall be deemed withdrawn, and such Loans shall be redenominated into Loans in
Dollars at the Base Rate Option or Euro-Rate Option, at the Company’s option on behalf of the
Borrowers (subject, in the case of the Euro-Rate Option, to compliance with Section 2.5 [Making
Revolving Credit Loans, Etc.] and Section 4.1 [Interest Rate Options]), with effect from the last
day of the Interest Period with respect to any such Loans. The Administrative Agent will promptly
notify the Borrowers and the Lenders of any such redenomination, and in such notice, the
Administrative Agent will state the aggregate Dollar Equivalent amount of the redenominated
Revolving Credit Loans in an Optional Currency as of the applicable Computation Date with respect
thereto and such Lender’s Revolving Credit Ratable Share thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary herein, each of the Lenders party to this Agreement as of the Closing Date acknowledge and
agree that, as of the Closing Date, such Lender can make Revolving Credit Loans denominated in
Canadian Dollars, Euro and British Pounds Sterling. However, the Borrowers acknowledge and
agree that the foregoing acknowledgement does not constitute a covenant, representation or
warranty that such Lenders will be able to lend in such currencies on any particular date in the
future.

          2.9.4 European Monetary Union.

               2.9.4.1 Payments In Euros Under Certain Circumstances. If (i) any Optional Currency
ceases to be lawful currency of the nation issuing the same and is replaced by the Euro or (ii) any
Optional Currency and the Euro are at the same time recognized by any governmental authority of the
nation issuing such currency as lawful currency of such nation and the Administrative Agent or the
Required Lenders shall so request in a notice delivered to the Borrowers, then any amount payable
hereunder by any party hereto in such Optional Currency shall instead by payable in the Euro and
the amount so payable shall be determined by translating the amount payable in such Optional
Currency to the Euro at the exchange rate established by that nation for the purpose of
implementing the replacement of the relevant Optional Currency

40

 

by the Euro (and the provisions governing payments in Optional Currencies in this Agreement
shall apply to such payment in the Euro as if such payment in the Euro were a payment in an
Optional Currency). Prior to the occurrence of the event or events described in clause (i) or (ii)
of the preceding sentence, each amount payable hereunder in any Optional Currency will, except as
otherwise provided herein, continue to be payable only in that currency.

               2.9.4.2 Additional Compensation Under Certain Circumstances. The Borrowers agree, at
the request of any Lender, to compensate such Lender for any loss, cost, expense or reduction in
return that such Lender shall reasonably determine shall be incurred or sustained by such Lender as
a result of the replacement of any Optional Currency by the Euro and that would not have been
incurred or sustained but for the transactions provided for herein. A certificate of any Lender
setting forth such Lender’s determination of the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such
Lender shall be delivered to the Borrowers and shall be conclusive absent manifest error so long as
such determination is made on a reasonable basis. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender the amount
shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.

          2.9.5 Requests for Additional Optional Currencies. The Borrowers may deliver to the
Administrative Agent a written request that Revolving Credit Loans hereunder also be permitted to
be made in any other lawful currency (other than Dollars), in addition to the currencies specified
in the definition of “Optional Currency” herein, provided that such currency must be freely
traded in the offshore interbank foreign exchange markets, freely transferable, freely convertible
into Dollars and available to the Lenders in the Relevant Interbank Market. The Administrative
Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of any such request promptly after the Administrative Agent
receives such request. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrowers of the
acceptance or rejection by the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders of the Borrowers’
request. The requested currency shall be approved as an Optional Currency hereunder only if the
Administrative Agent and all of the Lenders approve of the Borrowers’ request.

     2.10 Provisions Applicable to All Loans.

          2.10.1 Notes. The Obligation of the Borrowers to repay the aggregate unpaid principal
amount of the Revolving Credit Loans made to them by each Lender and Swing Loans made to them by
PNC, together with interest thereon, shall be evidenced by a revolving credit Note or Swing Loan
Note, as applicable, dated as of the Closing Date (or, if later, the date such Lender becomes a
Lender hereunder in accordance with this Agreement), payable to the order of such Lender in a face
amount equal to such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment and payable to the order of PNC in the
face amount equal to the Swing Loan Commitment. Upon request to the Administrative Agent made
prior to the Closing Date (or, if later, the date such Lender becomes a Lender hereunder in
accordance with this Agreement), any Lender may elect to evidence the aggregate unpaid principal
amount of all Revolving Credit Loans made by it, and PNC may elect to evidence the aggregate unpaid
principal amount of all Swing Loans made by it, through the maintenance in the ordinary course of
business of accounts or records, which accounts or records shall be available to the Administrative
Agent to review promptly upon request, in lieu of receipt of original Notes. In the event of any
conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of
the Administrative Agent

41

 

with respect to such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control
absent manifest error.

          2.10.2 Joint and Several Obligations. Subject to any limitations expressly set forth in
Section 12.14 [Foreign Borrowers] with respect to Foreign Borrowers, all Obligations of the
Borrowers are joint and several.

3. RESERVED

4. INTEREST RATES

     4.1 Interest Rate Options. The Borrowers shall pay interest in respect of the
outstanding unpaid principal amount of the Loans as selected by them from the Base Rate Option or
Euro-Rate Option set forth below applicable to the Loans, it being understood that, subject to the
provisions of this Agreement, all Revolving Credit Loans made as part of the same Borrowing Tranche
shall be made to the same Borrower and shall consist of the same Interest Rate Option, and the same
Interest Period shall apply to such Loans that are part of the same Borrowing Tranche; provided
that the Borrowers may select different Interest Rate Options and different Interest Periods to
apply simultaneously to the Loans comprising different Borrowing Tranches and may convert to or
renew one or more Interest Rate Options with respect to all or any portion of the Loans comprising
any Borrowing Tranche; provided further that there shall not be at any one time outstanding
more than twelve (12) Borrowing Tranches in the aggregate among all of the Loans and provided
further that if an Event of Default or Potential Default exists and is continuing, the
Borrowers may not request, convert to, or renew the Euro-Rate Option for any Loans and the Required
Lenders may demand that all existing Borrowing Tranches bearing interest under the Euro-Rate Option
shall be converted immediately to the Base Rate Option, subject to the obligation of the Borrowers
to pay any indemnity under Section 5.10 [Indemnity] in connection with such conversion. If at any
time the designated rate applicable to any Loan made by any Lender exceeds such Lender’s highest
lawful rate, the rate of interest on such Lender’s Loan shall be limited to such Lender’s highest
lawful rate. Interest on the principal amount of each Loan made in an Optional Currency shall be
paid by the Borrowers in such Optional Currency.

          4.1.1 Revolving Credit Interest Rate Options; Swing Line Interest Rate. Subject to
Section 4.3 [Interest After Default], the Borrowers shall have the right to select from the
following Interest Rate Options applicable to the Revolving Credit Loans, provided that any Loan
made in an Optional Currency shall bear interest at the Euro-Rate:

          (i) Revolving Credit Base Rate Option: A fluctuating rate per annum (computed on the
basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed) equal to the Base
Rate plus the Applicable Margin, such interest rate to change automatically from time to time
effective as of the effective date of each change in the Base Rate; or

          (ii) Revolving Credit Euro-Rate Option: A rate per annum (computed on the basis of a
year of 360 days and actual days elapsed) equal to the Euro-Rate plus the Applicable Margin;
provided, however, that in the case of a Revolving Credit Loan which is denominated in Canadian
dollars, such rate per annum shall be calculated on the basis of a 365-day year.

42

 

          (iii) Swing Loans. Subject to Section 4.3 [Interest After Default], at the
Borrower’s option, Swing Loans shall bear interest (A) at the Base Rate Option applicable to
Revolving Credit Loans or, (B) at a rate per annum (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days
and actual days elapsed) equal to the Daily Euro-Rate plus the Applicable Margin applicable to
Revolving Credit Loans under the Euro-Rate Option.

          4.1.2 Rate Quotations. The Borrowers may call the Administrative Agent on or before
the date on which a Loan Request is to be delivered to receive an indication of the rates then in
effect, but it is acknowledged that such projection shall not be binding on the Administrative
Agent or the Lenders nor affect the rate of interest which thereafter is actually in effect when
the election is made.

     4.2 Interest Periods. At any time when the Borrowers shall select, convert to or
renew a Euro-Rate Option, the Borrowers shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof at least
three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such Interest Rate Option with respect to a
Loan in an Optional Currency denominated in Canadian dollars or Euro, four (4) Business Days prior
to the effective date of such Interest Rate Option with respect to a Loan in any other Optional
Currency, and in all other cases, three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such
Euro-Rate Option by delivering a Loan Request. The notice shall specify an Interest Period during
which such Interest Rate Option shall apply. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the following
provisions shall apply to any selection of, renewal of, or conversion to a Euro-Rate Option:

          4.2.1 Amount of Borrowing Tranche. Each Borrowing Tranche of Loans under the Euro-Rate
Option shall be in integral multiples of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000; and

          4.2.2 Renewals. In the case of the renewal of a Euro-Rate Option at the end of an
Interest Period, the first day of the new Interest Period shall be the last day of the preceding
Interest Period, without duplication in payment of interest for such day, or such other day as
agreed to by the Administrative Agent and the Company.

     4.3 Interest After Default. If an Event of Default has occurred which has not been
cured or waived in writing in accordance with this Agreement, upon written notice by the
Administrative Agent (which notice the Administrative Agent shall give at the direction of the
Required Lenders), (i) all outstanding amounts of principal and, to the extent permitted by law,
all overdue interest, in respect of each Loan shall bear interest, payable on demand, at a rate per
annum equal to the Post-Default Rate, and (ii) the fees applicable to the Letter of Credit
Obligations shall be increased by an additional 2% per annum in excess of the fees otherwise
applicable thereto. In addition, if any Unpaid Drawing or any amount (other than amounts as to
which the foregoing subparts (i) and (ii) are applicable) payable by any Borrower under the Loan
Documents is not paid when due, upon written notice by the Administrative Agent (which notice the
Administrative Agent shall give at the direction of the Required Lenders), such amount shall bear
interest, payable on demand, at the Post-Default Rate.

          4.3.1
Acknowledgment. The Borrowers acknowledge that the increase in rates
referred to in this Section 4.3 reflects, among other things, the fact that such Loans or other

43

 

amounts have become a substantially greater risk given their default status and
that the Lenders are entitled to additional compensation for such risk; and all such interest shall
be payable by Borrowers upon demand by Administrative Agent.

     4.4 Euro-Rate Unascertainable; Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available.

          4.4.1 Unascertainable. If on any date on which a Euro-Rate would otherwise be
determined, the Administrative Agent shall have determined that:

          (i) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining such Euro-Rate, or

          (ii) a contingency has occurred which materially and adversely affects the London interbank
eurodollar market, the Administrative Agent shall have the rights specified in Section 4.4.3
[Administrative Agent’s and Lender’s Rights].

          4.4.2 Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available. If at any time any Lender
shall have determined that:

          (i) the making, maintenance or funding of any Loan to which a Euro-Rate Option applies has
been made impracticable or unlawful by compliance by such Lender in good faith with any Law or any
interpretation or application thereof by any Official Body or with any request or directive of any
such Official Body (whether or not having the force of Law), or

          (ii) such Euro-Rate Option will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lender of
the establishment or maintenance of any such Loan, or

          (iii) after making all reasonable efforts, deposits of the relevant amount in Dollars or in
the Optional Currency (as applicable) for the relevant Interest Period for a Loan, or to banks
generally, to which a Euro-Rate Option applies, respectively, are not available to such Lender with
respect to such Loan, or to banks generally, in the interbank
eurodollar market, then the Administrative Agent shall have the rights specified in Section 4.4.3 [Administrative
Agent’s and Lender’s Rights].

          4.4.3 Administrative Agent’s and Lender’s Rights. In the case of any event specified
in Section 4.4.1 [Unascertainable] above, the Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify the
Lenders and the Borrowers thereof, and in the case of an event specified in Section 4.4.2
[Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available] above, such Lender shall promptly so notify
the Administrative Agent and endorse a certificate to such notice as to the specific circumstances
of such notice, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly send copies of such notice and
certificate to the other Lenders and the Borrowers. Upon such date as shall be specified in such
notice (which shall not be earlier than the date such notice is given), the obligation of (A) the
Lenders, in the case of such notice given by the Administrative Agent, or (B) such Lender, in the
case of such notice given by such Lender, to allow the Borrowers to select, convert to or renew a
Euro-Rate Option or select an Optional Currency (as applicable) shall be suspended until the
Administrative Agent shall have later notified the Borrowers, or such Lender shall have later
notified the Administrative Agent, of the Administrative Agent’s or

44

 

such Lender’s, as the case may be, determination that the circumstances giving rise to such
previous determination no longer exist. If at any time the Administrative Agent makes a
determination under Section 4.4.1 [Unascertainable] and the Borrowers have previously notified the
Administrative Agent of their selection of, conversion to or renewal of a Euro-Rate Option and such
Interest Rate Option has not yet gone into effect, such notification shall be deemed to provide for
selection of, conversion to or renewal of the Base Rate Option otherwise available with respect to
such Loans. If any Lender notifies the Administrative Agent of a determination under Section 4.4.2
[Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available], the Borrowers shall, subject to the
Borrowers’ indemnification Obligations under Section 5.10 [Indemnity], as to any Loan of the Lender
to which a Euro-Rate Option applies, on the date specified in such notice either (i) as applicable,
convert such Loan to the Base Rate Option otherwise available with respect to such Loan or select
a different Optional Currency or Dollars, or (ii) prepay such Loan in accordance with Section 5.6
[Voluntary Prepayments]. Absent due notice from the Borrowers of conversion or prepayment, such
Loan shall automatically be converted to the Base Rate Option otherwise available with respect to
such Loan upon such specified date.

     4.5 Selection of Interest Rate Options. If the Borrowers fail to select a new
Interest Period to apply to any Borrowing Tranche of Loans under the Euro-Rate Option at the
expiration of an existing Interest Period applicable to such Borrowing Tranche in accordance with
the provisions of Section 4.2 [Interest Periods], the Borrowers shall be deemed to have converted
such Borrowing Tranche to the Revolving Credit Base Rate Option, commencing upon the last day of
the existing Interest Period.

     4.6 Interest Act (Canada) Disclosure. For the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada) and
disclosure thereunder, whenever any interest or any fee to be paid hereunder or in connection
herewith is to be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year or any other period less than a full
year, the yearly rate of interest to which the rate used in such calculation is equivalent is the
rate so used multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the same is to
be ascertained and divided by 360 or the number of days in such other period, as applicable. The
rates of interest under this Agreement are nominal rates, and not effective rates or yields. The
principle of deemed reinvestment of interest does not apply to any interest calculation under this
Agreement.

     4.7 Canadian Usury Provision. If any provision of this Agreement would oblige a Canadian
Borrower to make any payment of interest or other amount payable to any Lender in an amount or
calculated at a rate which would be prohibited by law or would result in a receipt by that Lender
of “interest” at a “criminal rate” (as such terms are construed under the Criminal Code (Canada)),
then, notwithstanding such provision, such amount or rate shall be deemed to have been adjusted
with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not
be so prohibited by applicable law or so result in a receipt by that Lender of “interest” at a
“criminal rate”, such adjustment to be effected, to the extent necessary (but only to the extent
necessary), as follows:

          (i) first, by reducing the amount or rate of interest; and

45

 

          (ii) thereafter, by reducing any fees, commissions, costs, expenses, premiums and other
amounts required to be paid which would constitute interest for purposes of Section 347 of the
Criminal Code (Canada).

     4.8 Minimum Interest Clause for Swiss Borrowers. The rates of interest provided for in
this Agreement, insofar as they relate to the Swiss Tranche, are minimum interest rates. When
entering into this Agreement, the parties have assumed that the interest payable by Swiss Borrowers
at the rates set out in this Section or in other Sections of this Agreement is not and will not
become subject to Swiss Withholding Tax.

     Notwithstanding that the parties hereto do not anticipate that any payment of interest will be
subject to Swiss Withholding Tax, such parties agree that, in the event that (a) Swiss Withholding
Tax is imposed on interest payments by any Swiss Borrower and (b) such Swiss Borrower is unable,
solely by reason of the Swiss Withholding Tax Act, to comply with Section 5.9.1 [Payments Free of
Taxes], then

          (i) the applicable interest rate in relation to that interest payment shall be (A) the
interest rate which would have applied to that interest payment as provided for in Section 4.1
[Interest Rate Options] divided by (B) 1 minus the rate at which the relevant Tax deduction is
required to be made under Swiss domestic tax law and/or applicable double taxation treaties (where
the rate at which the relevant Tax deduction is required to be made is for this purpose expressed
as a fraction of 1); and

          (ii) the Swiss Borrower shall (A) pay the relevant interest at the adjusted rate in accordance
with paragraph (i) above, (B) make the Tax deduction on the interest so recalculated and (C) all
references to a rate of interest under the Agreement shall be construed accordingly.

     To the extent that interest payable by a Swiss Borrower under this Agreement becomes subject
to Swiss Withholding Tax, at the Borrowers’ expense, the Parties shall promptly cooperate in
completing any procedural formalities (including submitting forms and documents required by the
appropriate Tax authority) to the extent possible and necessary for the specific Swiss Borrower to
obtain the tax ruling from Swiss Federal Tax Administration.

     All the other provisions of Section 5.9 [Taxes] shall otherwise apply except for the gross-up
requirement provided for under Section 5.9.1 [Payments Free of Taxes].

5. PAYMENTS

     5.1 Payments. All payments and prepayments to be made in respect of principal,
interest, Facility Fees, Letter of Credit Fees, Administrative Agent’s Fee or other fees or amounts
due from the Borrowers hereunder shall be payable prior to 11:00 a.m. on the date when due without
presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the
Borrowers, and without set-off, counterclaim or other deduction of any nature, and an action
therefor shall immediately accrue. Such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at the
Principal Office for the account of PNC with respect to the Swing Loans and for the ratable
accounts of the Lenders with respect to the Revolving Credit Loans in U.S. Dollars (unless
specified otherwise herein) and in immediately available funds, and the Administrative

46

 

Agent shall promptly distribute such amounts to the Lenders in immediately available funds;
provided that in the event payments are received by 11:00 a.m. by the Administrative Agent
with respect to the Loans and such payments are not distributed to the Lenders on the same day
received by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall pay the Lenders the Federal
Funds Effective Rate in the case of Loans or other amounts due in Dollars, or the Overnight Rate in
case of Loans or other amounts due in Optional Currency, with respect to the amount of such
payments for each day held by the Administrative Agent and not distributed to the Lenders. The
Administrative Agent’s and each Lender’s statement of account, ledger or other relevant record
shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive as the statement of the amount of principal
of and interest on the Loans and other amounts owing under this Agreement and shall be deemed an
“account stated.” All payments of principal and interest made in respect of the Loans must be
repaid in the same currency (whether Dollars or the applicable Optional Currency) in which such
Loan was made and all Unpaid Drawings with respect to each Letter of Credit shall be made in the
same currency (whether Dollars or the applicable Optional Currency) in which such Letter of Credit
was issued. The Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) debit the amount of any
such payment which is not made by such time to any ordinary deposit account of the applicable
Borrower with the Administrative Agent.

     5.2 Pro Rata Treatment of Lenders. Each borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans shall be
allocated to each Lender according to its Ratable Share, and each selection of, conversion to or
renewal of any Interest Rate Option and each payment or prepayment by the Borrowers with respect to
principal, interest, Facility Fees, Letter of Credit Fees, or other fees (except for the
Administrative Agent’s Fee and the Issuing Lender’s fronting fee) or amounts due from the Borrowers
hereunder to the Lenders with respect to the Commitments and Loans, shall (except as otherwise may
be provided with respect to a Defaulting Lender and except as provided in Section 4.4.3
[Administrative Agent’s and Lender’s Rights] in the case of an event specified in Section 4.4
[Euro-Rate Unascertainable; Etc.], 5.6.2 [Replacement of a Lender] or 5.8 [Increased Costs]) be
payable ratably among the Lenders entitled to such payment in accordance with the amount of
principal, interest, Facility Fees, Letter of Credit Fees, and other fees or amounts then due or
payable such Lenders as set forth in this Agreement. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, each
borrowing or payment or prepayment by the Borrowers of principal, interest, fees or other amounts
from the Borrowers solely with respect to Swing Loans shall be made by or to PNC according to
Section 2.5.5 [Borrowings to Repay Swing Loans].

     5.3 Sharing of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of
setoff, counterclaim or banker’s lien, by receipt of voluntary payment, by realization upon
security, or by any other non-pro rata source, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or
interest on any of its Loans or other obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender’s receiving
payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon or other
such obligations greater than the pro-rata share of the amount such Lender is entitled thereto,
then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such
fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and such other
obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the
benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the
aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts
owing them, provided that:

47

 

          (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise
thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the
extent of such recovery, together with interest or other amounts, if any, required by Law
(including court order) to be paid by the Lender or the holder making such purchase; and

          (ii) the provisions of this Section 5.3 shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment
made by the Borrowers pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of the Loan Documents or
(y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a
participation in any of its Loans or Participation Advances to any assignee or participant, other
than to the Borrowers or any Consolidated Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this
Section 5.3 shall apply).

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

     Any Lender that fails at any time to comply with the provisions of this Section 5.3 shall be
deemed a Defaulting Lender until such time as it performs its obligations hereunder and is not
otherwise a Defaulting Lender for any other reason. A Defaulting Lender shall, for the purposes of
effecting the participations required by this Section 5.3, be deemed to have assigned any and all
payments due to it from the Borrowers, whether on account of or relating to outstanding Loans,
Letters of Credit, interest, fees or otherwise, to the remaining non-defaulting Lenders for
application to, and reduction of, their respective Ratable Share of all outstanding Loans and other
unpaid Obligations of any of the Borrowers. The Defaulting Lender hereby authorizes the
Administrative Agent to distribute such payments to the non-defaulting Lenders in proportion to
their respective Ratable Share of all outstanding Loans and other unpaid Obligations of any of the
Borrowers to which such Lenders are entitled. A Defaulting Lender shall be deemed to have
satisfied the provisions of this Section 5.3 when and if, as a result of application of the
assigned payments to all outstanding Loans and other unpaid Obligations of any of the Borrowers to
the non-defaulting Lenders, the Lenders’ respective Ratable Share of all outstanding Loans and
unpaid Obligations have returned to those in effect immediately prior to such violation of this
Section 5.3.

     5.4 Presumptions by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have
received notice from the Borrowers prior to the date on which any payment is due to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Lender hereunder that the
Borrowers will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrowers have
made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption,
distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount due. In such
event, if the Borrowers have not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing
Lender, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on
demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or the Issuing Lender, with interest thereon, for
each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of
payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater

48

 

of the Federal Funds Effective Rate (or, for payments in an Optional Currency, the Overnight
Rate) and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules
on interbank compensation.

     5.5 Interest Payment Dates. Interest on Loans to which the Base Rate Option applies
shall be due and payable in arrears on each Payment Date. Interest on Loans to which the Euro-Rate
Option applies shall be due and payable on the last day of each Interest Period for those Loans
and, if such Interest Period is longer than three (3) Months, also on the 90th day of such Interest
Period. Interest on mandatory prepayments of principal under Section 5.7 [Mandatory Prepayments;
Cash Collateralization] shall be due on the date such mandatory prepayment is due. Interest on the
principal amount of each Loan or other monetary Obligation shall be due and payable on demand after
such principal amount or other monetary Obligation becomes due and payable (whether on the stated
Expiration Date, upon acceleration or otherwise).

     5.6 Voluntary Prepayments.

          5.6.1 Right to Prepay. Each Borrower shall have the right at their option from time
to time to prepay the Loans in whole or part without premium or penalty (except as provided in
Section 5.6.2 [Replacement of a Lender] below, in Section 5.8 [Increased Costs] and Section 5.10
[Indemnity]). Whenever any Borrower desires to prepay any part of the Loans, such Borrower shall
provide a prepayment notice to the Administrative Agent by 1:00 p.m. at least one (1) Business Day
prior to the date of prepayment of the Revolving Credit Loans and at least four (4) Business Days
prior to the date of prepayment of any Loans in an Optional Currency, or no later than 1:00 p.m. on
the date of prepayment of Swing Loans, setting forth the following information:

     (w) the date, which shall be a Business Day, on which the proposed prepayment
is to be made;

     (x) a statement indicating the application of the prepayment between the
Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Loans;

     (y) a statement indicating the application of the prepayment between Loans to
which the Base Rate Option applies and Loans to which the Euro-Rate Option applies;
and

     (z) the total principal amount of such prepayment, which shall be equal to (i)
in the case of any Base Rate Loan, $1,000,000 (or Dollar Equivalent thereof), with
minimum increments thereafter of $500,000 (or Dollar Equivalent thereof), (ii) in
the case of any Euro-Rate Loan, $5,000,000 (or Dollar Equivalent thereof), with
minimum increments thereafter of $1,000,000 (or Dollar Equivalent thereof), and
(iii) in the case of any Swing Loan, $500,000, with minimum increments thereafter of
$250,000 (prepayments of Loans with different Interest Rates or Interest Periods
shall be deemed separate prepayments for the purposes of the foregoing).

               Except as set forth in Section 2.1.3 [Optional Reductions], all prepayment notices shall be
irrevocable. Unless the prepayment notice is revoked in accordance with Section 2.1.3, the
principal amount of the Loans for which a prepayment notice is given, together

49

 

with interest on such principal amount except with respect to Loans to which the Base Rate Option
applies, shall be due and payable on the date specified in such prepayment notice as the date on
which the proposed prepayment is to be made. Except as provided in Section 4.4.3 [Administrative
Agent’s and Lender’s Rights], if the Borrowers prepay a Loan but fails to specify the applicable
Borrowing Tranche which the Borrowers are prepaying, the prepayment shall be applied first to Loans
to which the Base Rate Option applies, and then to Loans to which the Euro-Rate Option applies
which are not in Optional Currencies, and then to Loans in Optional Currencies. Any prepayment
hereunder shall be subject to the Borrowers’ Obligation to indemnify the Lenders under Section 5.10
[Indemnity]. Prepayments shall be made in the currency in which such Loan was made, unless
otherwise directed by the Administrative Agent. Revolving Credit Loan prepayments shall not result
in a reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments unless the Borrower have so elected pursuant to
Section 2.1.3 [Optional Reductions], or as may otherwise be provided in this Agreement.

          5.6.2 Replacement of a Lender. In the event any Lender (a) gives notice under Section
4.4 [Euro-Rate Unascertainable, Etc.], (b) requests compensation under Section 5.8 [Increased
Costs], or requires the Borrowers to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Official Body
for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 5.9 [Taxes], (c) is a Defaulting Lender, (d)
becomes subject to the control of an Official Body (other than normal and customary supervision),
or (e) is a Non-Consenting Lender referred to in Section 12.1 [Modifications, Amendments or
Waivers], then in any such event the Borrowers may, at their sole expense, upon notice to such
Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse
(in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section
12.8 [Successors and Assigns]), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement
and the related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee
may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:

          (i) the Borrowers shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in
Section 12.8 [Successors and Assigns];

          (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal
of its Loans and Participation Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other
amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents including any amounts under
Section 5.10 [Indemnity]) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and
accrued interest and fees) or the Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts);

          (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section
5.8 [Increased Costs] or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 5.9 [Taxes], such
assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and

          (iv) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Law.

Solely with respect to circumstances described in Sections 5.6.2(a) through 5.6.2(c), a Lender
shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a
waiver by such Lender or otherwise, such circumstances entitling the Borrowers to require such

50

 

assignment and delegation cease to apply. Nothing in this Section 5.6 or in any other provision of
this Agreement shall be deemed to prejudice any rights that the Borrowers may have against any
Defaulting Lender.

     5.7 Mandatory Prepayments; Cash Collateralization.

          5.7.1 Mandatory Prepayments of Loans. If on any date (after giving effect to any
other payments on such date)(A) the aggregate Dollar Equivalent amount of Revolving Facility Usage
exceeds the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments, (B) the Dollar Equivalent amount of Revolving
Credit Loans from a Lender exceeds such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment minus such Lender’s
Ratable Share of the Dollar Equivalent amount of Letter of Credit Obligations, or (C) the Swing
Loans outstanding exceed the Swing Loan Sublimit; then, in the case of each of the foregoing, the
applicable Borrower or the Company shall prepay on such date the principal amount of Loans and,
after Loans have been paid in full, any Unpaid Drawings, in an aggregate amount at least equal to
such excess and conforming in the case of partial prepayments of Loans to the requirements as to
the amounts of partial prepayments of Loans that are contained in Section 5.6 [Voluntary
Prepayments]; provided, however, that if such excess results solely from fluctuations in the
exchange rates related to any Optional Currencies applicable to any of the Loans or unpaid
drawings, then neither the applicable Borrower nor the Company shall be obligated to make a
prepayment pursuant to this Section 5.7.1 unless and/or until (1) the aggregate Dollar Equivalent
amount of Revolving Facility Usage exceeds 105% of the aggregate of the Revolving Credit
Commitments, or (2) the Dollar Equivalent amount of Revolving Credit Loans from a Lender exceeds
105% of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment minus such Lender’s Ratable Share of the Dollar
Equivalent amount of Letter of Credit Obligations.

          5.7.2 Application Among Interest Rate Options. All prepayments required pursuant to this
Section 5.7 shall first be applied among the Interest Rate Options to the principal amount of the
Loans subject to the Base Rate Option, then to Loans denominated in Dollars and subject to a
Euro-Rate Option, then to Loan of Optional Currencies subject to the Euro-Rate Option, and the
Borrowers will be subject to the indemnity obligations set forth in Section 5.8 [Increased Costs]
and Section 5.9 [Taxes]. In accordance with Section 5.10 [Indemnity], the Borrower shall indemnify
the Lenders for any loss or expense, including loss of margin, incurred with respect to any such
prepayments applied against Loans subject to a Euro-Rate Option on any day other than the last day
of the applicable Interest Period.

          5.7.3 Cash Collateralization. If on any date the Dollar Equivalent of Letter of Credit
Obligations exceeds the Letter of Credit Sublimit, then the Issuing Lender shall pay to the
Administrative Agent an amount in cash equal to such excess and the Administrative Agent shall hold
such payment as security for the Reimbursement Obligations of the Issuing Lender hereunder in
respect of Letters of Credit; provided, however, that if such excess results solely from
fluctuations in the exchange rates related to any Optional Currencies applicable to any of the
Letter of Credit Obligations, then the Issuing Lender shall not be obligated to make a cash payment
to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 5.7.3 unless and/or until such Letter of
Credit Obligations equal or exceed 105% of the Letter of Credit Sublimit.

51

 

          5.7.4 Application of Prepayments. All prepayments pursuant to this Section 5.7 shall be
applied to reduce the Revolving Credit Loans (without a permanent corresponding Revolving Credit
Commitment reduction unless otherwise provided in this Agreement).

          5.7.5 No Deemed Cure. The payment of any mandatory prepayment as required by this Section
5.7 shall not be deemed to cure any Event of Default caused under another provision of this
Agreement by the same occurrence which gave rise to the mandatory prepayment obligation under this
Section.

     5.8 Increased Costs.

          5.8.1 Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:

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

          (ii) subject any Lender or the Issuing Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect
to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any participation in a Letter of Credit or any Loan under
the Euro-Rate Option made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender or the
Issuing Lender in respect thereof (except for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section
5.9 [Taxes] and the imposition of, or any change in the rate of, any Excluded Tax payable by such
Lender or the Issuing Lender); or

          (iii) impose on any Lender, the Issuing Lender or the London interbank market any other
condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or any Loan under the Euro-Rate Option made by
such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or
maintaining any Loan under the Euro-Rate Option (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such
Loan), or to increase the cost to such Lender or the Issuing Lender of participating in, issuing or
maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue
any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or
the Issuing Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon
request of such Lender or the Issuing Lender, the Borrowers will pay to such Lender or the Issuing
Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the
Issuing Lender, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

          5.8.2 Capital Requirements. If any Lender or the Issuing Lender determines that any
Change in Law affecting such Lender or the Issuing Lender or any lending office of such Lender or
such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements has
or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s
capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company, if any, as a
consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or
participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of

52

 

Credit issued by the
Issuing Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or the Issuing
Lender or such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for
such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s policies and
the policies of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company with respect to capital
adequacy), then from time to time the Borrowers will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as
the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing
Lender or such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

          5.8.3 Certificates for Reimbursement; Repayment of Outstanding Loans; Borrowing of New
Loans. A certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Lender setting forth the amount or amounts
necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Lender or its holding company, as the case may
be, as specified in Sections 5.8.1 [Increased Costs Generally] or 5.8.2 [Capital Requirements] and
setting forth in reasonable detail the calculations necessary to determine such amount or amounts,
and delivered to the Borrowers shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay
such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such
certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.

          5.8.4 Delay in Requests. Each Lender agrees to promptly give the Borrowers notice of
any demand for compensation pursuant to this Section. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender
or the Issuing Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver
of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s right to demand such compensation, provided that
the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the Issuing Lender pursuant to this
Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than six (6) months prior to
the date that such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Borrowers of the
Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the Issuing
Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to
such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the six (6) month period referred to above
shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

          5.8.5 Designation of Alternate Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation
under this Section 5.8, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender
or any Official Body for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 5.9, then such Lender shall
use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans
hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or
Affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would
eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 5.8 or 5.9, as applicable, in the future,
and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise
be disadvantageous to such Lender in any respect. The Company hereby agrees to pay all reasonable
costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

     5.9 Taxes.

          5.9.1 Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation
of the Borrowers hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and

53

 

clear of and
without reduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes;
provided that if the Borrowers shall be required by applicable Law to deduct or
withhold any Indemnified Taxes (including any Other Taxes) from such payments, then (i) the sum
payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions and
withholdings (including deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under
this Section) the Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, receives a
net payment equal to the amount it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been
made, (ii) the Borrowers shall make such deductions and withholdings and (iii) the Borrowers shall
timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Official Body in accordance with applicable
Law. For the avoidance of doubt, Borrowers’ obligations hereunder shall apply regardless of
whether the Indemnified Taxes or other Taxes are an obligation of any Borrower or of any Lender.
Each Foreign Borrower undertakes to provide the Administrative Agent, promptly upon request, with
such documents as may be reasonably necessary under any Law or treaty for the availability of any
relief from a foreign jurisdiction withholding or other applicable tax.

     Each Lender participating in any Loan to a Swiss Borrower represents and warrants as of the
date of this Agreement that it is a Qualifying Bank or, if participating in any Loan as a Permitted
Non-Qualifying Lender, that any information given by it to all Swiss Borrowers to determine whether
they would constitute one (1) person only for the purposes of the Swiss Bank Rules is accurate in
all material respects and each Lender becoming a Lender by assignment or transfer under Section
12.8.2 [Assignments by Lenders] shall represent and warrant as of the effective date of such
assignment or transfer that it is a Qualifying Bank by delivery of its Assignment and Assumption
Agreement or, if it is a Permitted Non-Qualifying Lender, that any information given by it to the
Swiss Borrowers to determine compliance with the Swiss Bank Rules is accurate in all material
respects.

          5.9.2 Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrowers. Without limiting the provisions of
Section 5.9.1 [Payments Free of Taxes] above, the Borrowers shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the
relevant Official Body in accordance with applicable Law.

          5.9.3 Indemnification by the Borrowers. The Borrowers shall indemnify the
Administrative Agent, each Lender and the Issuing Lender, within thirty (30) days after demand
therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes
or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) paid
by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, and any
penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or
not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the
relevant Official Body. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to
the Borrowers by a Lender or the Issuing Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by
the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the Issuing Lender, shall be
conclusive absent manifest error.

          5.9.4 Evidence of Payments. Within thirty (30) days after any payment of Indemnified
Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrowers to an Official Body, the Borrowers shall deliver to the
Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Official Body
evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such
payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

54

 

          5.9.5 Status of Lenders. Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or
reduction of withholding tax under the Law of the jurisdiction in which any Borrower is resident
for tax purposes, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments
hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrowers (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by
the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation
prescribed by applicable Law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a
reduced rate of withholding. Notwithstanding the submission of such documentation claiming a
reduced rate of or exemption from U.S. withholding tax, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled
to withhold United States federal income taxes at the full 30% withholding rate if in its
reasonable judgment it is required to do so under the due diligence requirements imposed upon a
withholding agent under § 1.1441-7(b) of the United States Income Tax Regulations. Further, the
Administrative Agent is indemnified under § 1.1461-1(e) of the United States Income Tax Regulations
against any claims and demands of any Lender or assignee or participant of a Lender for the amount
of any tax it deducts and withholds in accordance with regulations under § 1441 of the Internal
Revenue Code. In addition, any Lender, if requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent,
shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the
Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent to
determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting
requirements. If any Foreign Lender fails to comply with the provisions in this Section 5.9, then
the Company shall not have any obligation to increase the sum payable to such Lender pursuant to
Section 5.9 [Taxes] or to indemnify such Lender pursuant to this Section 5.9 for Taxes (included
related penalties, interest and expenses) imposed by the United States or any political subdivision
thereof.

          If the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Lender, determines in its sole
discretion, that it has received a refund of any taxes in respect of or calculated with reference
to Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by a Borrower or with
respect to which a Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 5.9, it shall pay
over such refund to such Borrower within thirty (30) days after receipt of such refund (but only to
the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Borrower under this
Section 5.9 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net
of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Lender
(including any Taxes imposed with respect to such refund) as is determined by the Administrative
Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Lender in good faith and in its sole discretion, and without
interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such
refund); provided that such Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such
Lender or the Issuing Lender, agrees to repay as soon as reasonably practicable the amount paid
over to such Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant
Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Lender in the event
the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Lender is required to repay such refund to
such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Lenders or the
Administrative Agent shall be obligated to pursue such refund, if in its sole good faith judgment,
such action would be disadvantageous to it. This Section shall not be construed to require the
Administrative Agent,

55

 

any Lender or the Issuing Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information
relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrowers or any other Person.

          Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that any Borrower is resident
for tax purposes in the United States of America, any Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrowers
and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on
or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from
time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, but only if
such Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do so), whichever of the following is applicable:

          (i) two (2) duly completed valid originals of IRS Form W-8BEN claiming eligibility for
benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States of America is a party,

          (ii) two (2) duly completed valid originals of IRS Form W-8ECI,

          (iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio
interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender
is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent
shareholder” of any Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a
“controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (y) two (2) duly
completed valid originals of IRS Form W-8BEN,

          (iv) any other form prescribed by applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a
reduction in United States Federal withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary
documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Law to permit the Borrowers to determine the
withholding or deduction required to be made, or

          (v) to the extent that any Lender is not a Foreign Lender, such Lender shall submit to the
Administrative Agent two (2) originals of an IRS Form W-9 or any other form prescribed by
applicable Law demonstrating that such Lender is not a Foreign Lender.

     If a payment made to a Lender under this Agreement would not be subject (in whole or in part)
to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to comply with the applicable
reporting or disclosure requirements of FATCA (including, but not limited to, those contained in
Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Company
and Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by Law and at such time or times
reasonably requested by the Company or Administrative Agent, such documentation or certifications
prescribed by applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and
such additional documentation or certifications reasonably requested by the Company or
Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Company or Administrative Agent to comply with its
obligations to withhold or report under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has complied with such
Lender’s obligations under FATCA, or to determine the amount (if any) to deduct and withhold from
such payment.

          5.9.6 Lenders’ Cooperation in Tax Matters. Promptly upon request by the
Administrative Agent, at the Borrowers’ expense, each of the Lenders agrees to cooperate in
completing any procedural formalities necessary for any Borrower to obtain authorization to

56

 

make any payments under this Agreement without any deduction or withholding for or on account
of taxes from a payment under a Loan Document. Each of the Lenders further agrees to provide such
information as any Swiss Borrower may reasonably request from time to time to determine such Swiss
Borrower’s compliance with Swiss Bank Rules.

          Within thirty (30) days after request by any Lender that holds a passport under the HMRC DT
Treaty Passport scheme and which wishes that scheme to apply to this Agreement, the Company shall
file a duly completed form DTTP-2 [Notification of a loan from a Double Taxation Treaty Passport
Holder] in respect of such Lender, with HM Revenue and Customs and shall promptly provide Lender
with a copy of that filing.

     5.10 Indemnity. In addition to the compensation or payments required by Section 5.8
[Increased Costs] or Section 5.9 [Taxes], the Borrowers shall indemnify each Lender against all
liabilities, losses or expenses (including loss of anticipated profits, any foreign exchange losses
and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to
maintain such Loan, from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained
or from the performance of any foreign exchange contract) which such Lender sustains or incurs as a
consequence of any:

          (i) payment, prepayment, conversion or renewal of any Loan to which a Euro-Rate Option applies
on a day other than the last day of the corresponding Interest Period (whether or not such payment
or prepayment is mandatory, voluntary or automatic and whether or not such payment or prepayment is
then due),

          (ii) attempt by any Borrower to revoke (expressly, by later inconsistent notices or otherwise)
in whole or part any Loan Requests under Section 2.4 [Revolving Credit Loan Requests; Swing Loan
Requests] or Section 4.2 [Interest Periods] or notice relating to prepayments under Section 5.6
[Voluntary Prepayments], or

          (iii) default by any Borrower in the performance or observance of any covenant or condition
contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, including any failure of the Borrowers to
pay when due (by acceleration or otherwise) any principal, interest or any other amount due
hereunder.

          If any Lender sustains or incurs any such loss or expense, it shall from time to time notify
the Borrowers of the amount determined in good faith by such Lender (which determination may
include such assumptions, allocations of costs and expenses and averaging or attribution methods as
such Lender shall deem reasonable) to be necessary to indemnify such Lender for such loss or
expense. Such notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for such determination. Such
amount shall be due and payable by the Borrowers to such Lender ten (10) Business Days after such
notice is given.

     5.11 Settlement Date Procedures. In order to minimize the transfer of funds between
the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers may borrow, repay and reborrow Swing Loans
and PNC may make Swing Loans as provided in Section 2.1.4 [Swing Loan Commitment] hereof during the
period between Settlement Dates. The Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of its Ratable
Share of the total of the Revolving Credit Loans and the

57

 

Swing Loans (each a “Required Share”). On such Settlement Date, each Lender shall pay to the
Administrative Agent the amount equal to the difference between its Required Share and its
Revolving Credit Loans, and the Administrative Agent shall pay to each Lender its Ratable Share of
all payments made by the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent with respect to the Revolving Credit
Loans. The Administrative Agent shall also effect settlement in accordance with the foregoing
sentence on the proposed Borrowing Dates for Revolving Credit Loans and on the dates in which any
optional or mandatory prepayments are made hereunder and may at its option effect settlement on any
other Business Day. These settlement procedures are established solely as a matter of
administrative convenience, and nothing contained in this Section 5.11 shall relieve the Lenders of
their obligations to fund Revolving Credit Loans on dates other than a Settlement Date pursuant to
Section 2.1.4 [Swing Loan Commitment]. The Administrative Agent may at any time at its option for
any reason whatsoever require each Lender to pay immediately to the Administrative Agent such
Lender’s Ratable Share of the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans and each Lender may at any time
require the Administrative Agent to pay immediately to such Lender its Ratable Share of all
payments made by the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent with respect to the Revolving Credit
Loans.

6. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

     6.1 Representations and Warranties. The Borrowers, jointly and severally, represent
and warrant to the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders as follows:

          6.1.1 Organization and Qualification; Power and Authority; Compliance With Laws; Title to
Properties; Event of Default. Each of the Company and its Consolidated Subsidiaries (i) is a
corporation, partnership or limited liability company (or foreign jurisdictional equivalent) duly
organized or formed, as applicable, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its
jurisdiction of organization or formation, as applicable, (ii) has all requisite corporate,
partnership or limited liability company (or foreign equivalent) power, and has all governmental
licenses, authorizations, consents and approvals necessary to own its assets and carry on its
business as now being or as proposed to be conducted, except in the case of such licenses,
authorizations, consents and approvals, where the failure to obtain them would not have a Material
Adverse Effect; and (iii) is duly licensed or qualified and in good standing (or foreign
jurisdictional equivalent) in each jurisdiction where such licensing or qualification is required,
except where the failure to be licensed, qualified or in good standing will not result in a
Material Adverse Effect. No Event of Default or Potential Default exists or is continuing.

          6.1.2 Consolidated Subsidiaries and Owners; Investment Companies. Schedule
6.1.2 is a complete and correct list, as of the date of this Agreement, of all Consolidated
Subsidiaries of the Company and of all Investments held by the Company or any of its Consolidated
Subsidiaries in any material joint venture or other similar Person. The Company owns, free and
clear of Liens, all outstanding shares of its Consolidated Subsidiaries and all such shares are
validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable (except in the case of RPM Canada Company) and the
Company (or the respective Consolidated Subsidiary of the Company) also owns, free and clear of
Liens, all such Investments.

          6.1.3 Corporate Action. Each Borrower has all necessary corporate, partnership or
limited liability company (or foreign equivalent) power, as applicable, and

58

 

authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Loan Documents to which it
is a party; the execution, delivery and performance by each Borrower of the Loan Documents to which
it is a party have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate, partnership or limited
liability company (or foreign equivalent) action, as applicable; and this Agreement has been duly
and validly executed and delivered by each Borrower and constitutes the legal, valid and binding
obligation of such Borrower and, on the Closing Date, each of the other Loan Documents to which the
Borrowers are to be a party will constitute their legal, valid and binding obligation, in each case
enforceable in accordance with their terms, except as the enforceability thereof may be limited by
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or moratorium or other similar laws relating to the
enforcement or creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles.

          6.1.4 No Breach. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the other
Loan Documents by any Borrower nor the consummation of the transactions herein or therein
contemplated or compliance with the terms and provisions hereof or thereof by any of them will
conflict with, constitute a breach of, or require any consent under, the Organizational Documents
of the Company or any of its Consolidated Subsidiaries, or any applicable law or regulation, or any
order, writ, injunction or decree of any court or governmental authority or agency, or any Loan
Document or other material agreement or instrument to which the Company or any of its Consolidated
Subsidiaries is a party or by which it is bound or to which it is subject, or constitute a default
under any such material agreement or instrument, or result in the creation or imposition of any
Lien upon any of the revenues or assets of the Company or any of its Consolidated Subsidiaries
pursuant to the terms of any such agreement or instrument.

          6.1.5 Litigation. Except as disclosed in the Disclosure Documents, there are no legal
or arbitral proceedings or any proceedings by or before any governmental or regulatory authority or
agency, now pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against or affecting the
Company or any Consolidated Subsidiary of such the Company which could reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect or which in any manner draws into question the validity of any
material provision of any Loan Document. The disclosure of litigation to the Lenders pursuant to
this Section does not necessarily mean that such litigation is of the type described in this
Section or that the Company believes that such litigation has any merit whatsoever.

          6.1.6 Approvals. Each of the Company and its Consolidated Subsidiaries has obtained all
material authorizations, approvals and consents of, and has made all filings and registrations
with, any governmental or regulatory authority or agency and any third party necessary for the
execution, delivery or performance by it of any Loan Document to which it is a party, or for the
validity or enforceability thereof.

          6.1.7 Margin Stock. None of the Company or any Consolidated Subsidiaries of the
Company engages or intends to engage principally, or as one of its important activities, in the
business of extending credit for the purpose, immediately, incidentally or ultimately, of
purchasing or carrying margin stock (within the meaning of Regulation U, T or X as promulgated by
the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System). No part of the proceeds of any Loan has
been or will be used, immediately, incidentally or ultimately, to purchase or carry any margin
stock or to extend credit to others for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any margin stock or
which is inconsistent with the provisions of the regulations of the Board of

59

 

Governors of the Federal Reserve System. None of the Borrowers or any Consolidated Subsidiary
of any Borrower holds or intends to hold margin stock in such amounts that more than 25% of the
reasonable value of the assets of any Borrower or any Consolidated Subsidiary of any Borrower are
or will be represented by margin stock.

          6.1.8 Information.

     (a) Neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document, nor any certificate, statement,
agreement or other documents furnished to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection
herewith or therewith, contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a
material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained herein and therein, in light of
the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

     (b) Without limiting the generality of paragraph (a):

          (i) The audited consolidated balance sheet of the Company and its Consolidated Subsidiaries as
of May 31, 2010 and the audited consolidated statements of income, shareholders’ equity and cash
flows for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2010 (collectively, the “Statements”) have been prepared in
accordance with GAAP consistently applied. The Statements fairly present the financial position of
the Company and its Consolidated Subsidiaries as of May 31, 2010 and the results of their operation
and their cash flows for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2010 in conformity with GAAP.

          (ii) The unaudited balance sheet of the Company and its Consolidated Subsidiaries as of August
31, 2010 and the unaudited consolidated statements of income, shareholders’ equity and cash flows
for the three months then ended have been prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied,
and fairly present the financial position of the Company and its Consolidated Subsidiaries as of
August 31, 2010 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the three months then
ended in conformity with GAAP (subject to normal year-end adjustments).

to the Borrowers, declare the unpaid principal amount of the Loans then outstanding and all

Lenders hereunder and thereunder to be forthwith due and payable, and the same shall thereupon
become and be immediately due and payable to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of each
Lender without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are
hereby expressly waived, and (ii) terminate any Letter of Credit that may be terminated in
accordance with its terms and/or require the Borrowers to, and the Borrowers shall thereupon,
deposit in a non-interest-bearing account with the Administrative Agent, as cash collateral for its

Lender, the Issuing Lender, and each of their respective Affiliates and any participant of such
Lender or Affiliate which has agreed in writing to be bound by the provisions of Section 5.3
[Sharing of Payments by Lenders] is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or
special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other
obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender, the Issuing Lender or any such
Affiliate or participant to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower against any and all of
the Obligations of such Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan
Document to such Lender, the Issuing Lender, Affiliate or participant, irrespective of whether or
not such Lender, Issuing Lender, Affiliate or participant shall have made any demand under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such Obligations of the Borrowers or such
Borrower may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender or the
Issuing Lender different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such
Indebtedness. The rights of each Lender, the Issuing Lender and their respective Affiliates and
participants under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other
rights of setoff) that such Lender, the Issuing Lender or their respective Affiliates and
participants may have. Each Lender and the Issuing Lender agrees to notify the Borrowers and the
Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to
give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application; and

          9.2.4 Application of Proceeds. From and after the date on which the Administrative
Agent has taken any action pursuant to this Section 9.2 and until all Obligations of the Borrowers

Lender or any other Lender shall, unless otherwise required by the terms of the other Loan
Documents or by applicable law, be applied as follows:

          (i) first, to reimburse the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for out-of-pocket costs,
expenses and disbursements, including reasonable attorneys’ and paralegals’ fees and legal
expenses, incurred by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders in connection with the collection of
any Obligations of any of the Borrowers under any of the Loan Documents;

73

 

          (ii) second, to the repayment of all Obligations then due and unpaid of the Borrowers to
the Lenders or their Affiliates incurred under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents
and to cash collateralize the Letter of Credit Obligations, ratably among the Lenders in proportion
to the respective amounts payable to them with respect to such Obligations; and

          (iii) the balance, if any, as required by Law.

10. THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

     10.1 Appointment and Authority. Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Lender hereby
irrevocably appoints PNC to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the
other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and
to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or
thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The
provisions of this Section 10 are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders
and the Issuing Lender, and neither the Borrowers nor any other Borrower shall have rights as a
third party beneficiary of any of such provisions.

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

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

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

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

          (c) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any
duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to
the Borrowers or any of their Affiliates that is communicated to or

74

 

obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any
capacity.

          The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with
the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the
Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be
necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 12.1 [Modifications, Amendments or
Waivers] and 9.2 [Consequences of Event of Default]) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross
negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge
of any Potential Default or Event of Default unless and until notice describing such Potential
Default or Event of Default is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrowers, a Lender or the
Issuing Lender.

          The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire
into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or
any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered
hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance
of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the
occurrence of any Potential Default or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability,
effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement,
instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 7 [Conditions
of Lending and Issuance of Letters of Credit] or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of
items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

     10.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to
rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate,
consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message,
Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to
have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent
also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been
made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining
compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of
Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or the Issuing Lender,
the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or the
Issuing Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such
Lender or the Issuing Lender prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of
Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the
Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for
any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants
or experts.

     10.5 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its
duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through
any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any
such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or
through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Section

75

 

10 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent
and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the
syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative
Agent.

     10.6 Resignation of Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may at any time
give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Lender and the Borrowers. Upon receipt
of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with approval from
the Borrowers (so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), to appoint a
successor, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If no such successor shall
have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within
thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the
retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Lender, appoint a
successor Administrative Agent; provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the
Borrowers and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such
resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (i) the retiring
Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the
other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative
Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the Issuing Lender under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring
Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor
Administrative Agent is appointed) and (ii) all payments, communications and determinations
provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each
Lender and the Issuing Lender directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor
Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section 10.6. Upon the acceptance of a
successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and
become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired)
Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its
duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged
therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Borrowers to a successor
Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed
between the Borrowers and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Section 10 and Section 12.3
[Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver] shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring
Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions
taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as
Administrative Agent.

     If PNC resigns as Administrative Agent under this Section 10.6, PNC shall also resign as an
Issuing Lender. Upon the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor
shall (i) succeed to all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of PNC as the retiring
Issuing Lender and Administrative Agent and PNC shall be discharged from all of its respective
duties and obligations as Issuing Lender and Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents, and
(ii) issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit issued by PNC, if any,
outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangement satisfactory to PNC to
effectively assume the obligations of PNC with respect to such Letters of Credit.

76

 

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

     10.8 No Other Duties, etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of
the Lenders, the Arrangers, the Co-Syndication Agents, the Co-Documentation Agents or other parties
listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this
Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the
Administrative Agent, a Lender or the Issuing Lender hereunder.

     10.9  Administrative Agent’s Fee. The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent
a nonrefundable fee (the “Administrative Agent’s Fee”) under the terms of a letter (the
“Administrative Agent’s Letter”) between the Borrowers and Administrative Agent, as amended from
time to time.

     10.10 No Reliance on Administrative Agent’s Customer Identification Program. Each
Lender acknowledges and agrees that neither such Lender, nor any of its Affiliates, participants or
assignees, may rely on the Administrative Agent to carry out such Lender’s, Affiliate’s,
participant’s or assignee’s customer identification program, or other obligations required or
imposed under or pursuant to the USA Patriot Act or the regulations thereunder, including the
regulations contained in 31 CFR 103.121 (as hereafter amended or replaced, the “CIP Regulations”),
or any other Anti-Terrorism Law, including any programs involving any of the following items
relating to or in connection with any of the Borrowers, their Affiliates or their agents, the Loan
Documents or the transactions hereunder or contemplated hereby: (i) any identity verification
procedures, (ii) any recordkeeping, (iii) comparisons with government lists, (iv) customer notices
or (v) other procedures required under the CIP Regulations or such other Laws.

11. GUARANTY

     11.1 Guaranty by the Company. The Company hereby irrevocably and unconditionally
guarantees, for the benefit of the Benefited Creditors, all of the following (collectively, the
“Company Guaranteed Obligations”): (a) the principal of and interest on the Notes issued by, and
the Loans made to, and the other Obligations of, the Foreign Borrowers under this Agreement, and
(b) all reimbursement obligations and Unpaid Drawings with respect to Letters of Credit issued for
the benefit of any Borrower (other than the Company) under this Agreement, in all cases under
subparts (a) or (b) above, whether now existing, or hereafter incurred or arising, including any
such interest or other amounts incurred or arising during the pendency of any bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, receivership or similar proceeding, regardless of whether allowed or
allowable in such proceeding or subject to an automatic stay

77

 

under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code. Upon failure by any Borrower to pay punctually any of
the Company Guaranteed Obligations, the Company shall forthwith on demand by the Administrative
Agent pay the amount not so paid at the place and in the currency and otherwise in the manner
specified in this Agreement or any other applicable agreement or instrument.

     11.2 Additional Undertaking. As a separate, additional and continuing obligation, the
Company unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes and agrees, for the benefit of the Benefited
Creditors that, should any amounts not be recoverable from the Company under Section 11.1 [Guaranty
by the Company] for any reason whatsoever (including, without limitation, by reason of any
provision of any Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument executed in connection
therewith being or becoming void, unenforceable, or otherwise invalid under any applicable law)
then, notwithstanding any notice or knowledge thereof by any Lender, the Administrative Agent, any
of their respective Affiliates, or any other Person, at any time, the Company as sole, original and
independent obligor, upon demand by the Administrative Agent, will make payment to the
Administrative Agent, for the account of the Benefited Creditors, of all such obligations not so
recoverable by way of full indemnity, in such currency and otherwise in such manner as is provided
in the Loan Documents or any other applicable agreement or instrument.

     11.3 Guaranty Unconditional. The obligations of the Company under this Section 11 shall be
unconditional and absolute and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, shall not be
released, discharged or otherwise affected by the occurrence, one or more times, of any of the
following:

          11.3.1 any extension, renewal, settlement, compromise, waiver or release in respect to any
Company Guaranteed Obligation under any agreement or instrument, by operation of law or otherwise;

          11.3.2 any modification or amendment of or supplement to this Agreement, any Note, any other
Loan Document, or any agreement or instrument evidencing or relating to any Company Guaranteed
Obligation;

          11.3.3 any release, non-perfection or invalidity of any direct or indirect security for any
Company Guaranteed Obligation under any agreement or instrument evidencing or relating to any
Company Guaranteed Obligation;

          11.3.4 any change in the corporate or limited liability company existence, structure or
ownership of any Borrower or other Consolidated Subsidiary or any insolvency, bankruptcy,
reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting any Borrower or other Consolidated Subsidiary
or its assets or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of any Borrower or other
Consolidated Subsidiary contained in any agreement or instrument evidencing or relating to any
Company Guaranteed Obligation;

          11.3.5 the existence of any claim, set-off or other rights which the Company may have at any
time against any other Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any Affiliate of any Lender
or any other person, whether in connection herewith or any unrelated transactions;

78

 

          11.3.6 any invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against any other Borrower for any
reason of any agreement or instrument evidencing or relating to any Company Guaranteed Obligation,
or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit the payment by any Borrower
of any of the Company Guaranteed Obligations; or

          11.3.7 any other act or omission of any kind by any other Borrower, the Administrative Agent,
any Lender or any other Person or any other circumstance whatsoever which might, but for the
provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the Company’s obligations
under this Section other than the irrevocable payment in full of all Company Guaranteed Obligations
and the termination of the Commitments hereunder.

     11.4 Company Obligations to Remain in Effect; Restoration. The Company’s obligations under
this Section shall remain in full force and effect until the indefeasible payment in full of all of
the Obligations and the termination of the Commitments hereunder, and the principal of and interest
on the Notes and other Company Guaranteed Obligations, and all other amounts payable by the
Company, any other Borrower or other Consolidated Subsidiary, under the Loan Documents or any other
agreement or instrument evidencing or relating to any of the Company Guaranteed Obligations, shall
have been paid in full. If at any time any payment of any of the Company Guaranteed Obligations is
rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or
reorganization of such Borrower, the Company’s obligations under this Article with respect to such
payment shall be reinstated at such time as though such payment had been due but not made at such
time.

     11.5 Waiver of Acceptance, etc. The Company irrevocably waives acceptance hereof,
presentment, demand, protest and any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement
that at any time any action be taken by any person against any other Borrower or any other Person,
or against any collateral or guaranty of any other Person.

     11.6 Subrogation. Until the indefeasible payment in full of all of the Obligations and the
termination of the Commitments hereunder, the Company shall have no rights, by operation of law or
otherwise, upon making any payment under this Section to be subrogated to the rights of the payee
against any other Borrower with respect to such payment or otherwise to be reimbursed, indemnified
or exonerated by any such Borrower in respect thereof.

     11.7 Effect of Stay. In the event that acceleration of the time for payment of any amount
payable by any Borrower under any Company Guaranteed Obligation is stayed upon insolvency,
bankruptcy or reorganization of such Borrower, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration
under the terms of any applicable agreement or instrument evidencing or relating to any Company
Guaranteed Obligation shall nonetheless be payable by the Company under this Section forthwith on
demand by the Administrative Agent.

12. MISCELLANEOUS

Lenders, the Administrative Agent, acting on behalf of all the Lenders, and the Borrowers, on
behalf of the Borrowers, may from time to time enter into written agreements amending or changing

provided that no agreement, waiver or consent which would modify the interests, rights or
obligations of the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender may be made without the written
consent of such Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender, as applicable, and provided,
further that, if in connection with any proposed waiver, amendment or modification referred to
in Sections 12.1.1 through 12.1.4 above, the consent of the Required Lenders is obtained but the
consent of one or more of such other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained (each a

Non-Consenting Lender with one or more replacement Lenders pursuant to Section 5.6.2 [Replacement
of a Lender].

     12.2 No Implied Waivers; Cumulative Remedies. No course of dealing and no delay or
failure of the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right, power, remedy or
privilege under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall affect any other or future exercise
thereof or operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude
any further exercise thereof or of any other right, power, remedy or privilege. The rights and
remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement and any other Loan
Documents are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which they would otherwise
have.

thereby, the performance or nonperformance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations
hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby,

tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Borrowers or any other
Borrower, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such
indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims,

claim brought by the Borrowers or any other Borrower against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith
of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if the Borrowers or

Borrower or are otherwise directly related or attributable to such Foreign Borrower.

of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such
sub-agent), the Issuing Lender or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Ratable
Share (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, (A) was incurred by or asserted
against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or the Issuing Lender in its capacity as
such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or
any such sub-agent) or Issuing Lender in connection with such capacity; and (B) was not determined
by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the
gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or
any Related Party of any of the foregoing.

          12.3.4 Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by
applicable Law, the Borrowers shall not assert, and each of the Borrowers hereby waives, any claim
against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or
punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as
a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated
hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of
the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to in Section 12.3.2 [Indemnification by the
Borrowers] shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any

computing interest and fees, except that the Loans shall be due on the Business Day preceding the
Expiration Date if the Expiration Date is not a Business Day. Whenever any

82

 

payment or action to be made or taken hereunder (other than payment of the Loans) shall be
stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment or action shall be made or
taken on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall not be included in

communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it;
provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or

acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as

the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable
Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning
Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption
Agreement with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade
Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption Agreement, as of the Trade Date) shall not be
less than $5,000,000, in respect of the Revolving Credit Commitment of the assigning Lender, unless
each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, the Company otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or
delayed).

          (ii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of
a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with
respect to the Loan or the Commitment assigned.

          (iii) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except for

interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption Agreement, have the rights and obligations of a
Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to

85

 

the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption Agreement, be released from its
obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption Agreement

Costs], and 12.3 [Expenses, Indemnity; Damage Waiver] with respect to facts and circumstances
occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender
of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 12.8.2 shall

rights and obligations in accordance with Section 12.8.4 [Participations].

          12.8.3 Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent
of the Borrowers, shall maintain a record of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the

Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is in such register pursuant to the terms
hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the
contrary. Such register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers and any Lender, at any
reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

          12.8.4 Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice
to, the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a
natural person or the Borrowers or any of the Borrowers’ Affiliates or Consolidated Subsidiaries)
(each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this
Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it);
provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged,
(ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of
such obligations and (iii) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, Issuing Lender
shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights
and obligations under this Agreement.

          Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall
provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any
amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such
agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the
Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver with respect to Sections 12.1.1
[Increase of Commitment] or 12.1.2 [Extension of Payment, Etc.]. Subject to Section 12.8.5

each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 4.4 [Euro-Rate Unascertainable;
Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available] and 5.8 [Increased Costs] to the same extent
as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 12.8.2
[Assignments by Lenders]. To the extent permitted by Law, each Participant also shall be entitled
to the benefits of Section 9.2.3 [Setoff] as though it were a Lender; provided such
Participant agrees to be subject to Section 5.3 [Sharing of Payments by Lenders] as though it were
a Lender.

86

 

          12.8.5 Limitations upon Participant Rights Successors and Assigns Generally. A
Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 5.8 [Increased
Costs], 5.9 [Taxes] or 12.3 [ Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver] than the applicable Lender would
have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless
the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrowers’ prior written
consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to
the benefits of Section 5.9 [Taxes] unless the Borrowers are notified of the participation sold to
such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrowers, to comply with
Section 5.9.5 [Status of Lenders] as though it were a Lender.

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

          12.8.7 Disapplication or Amendment of the Swiss Bank Rules. If the Swiss Bank Rules
are disapplied or amended in any material respect from their form as of the date hereof, the Swiss
Borrowers or the Administrative Agent may (and the Administrative Agent shall, at the request of
the Required Lenders) request in writing to the Administrative Agent or the Swiss Borrowers,
respectively, that this Agreement be amended to reflect such change. Thereafter, the Swiss
Borrowers and the Lenders shall enter into discussions with a view to agreeing on any amendments
required to be made to this Agreement to place the Swiss Borrowers and the Lenders in substantially
the same position (or otherwise in a position acceptable to the Swiss Borrower and the Lenders)
from a Swiss withholding Tax viewpoint as they would have been in if the change of which they have
been notified under this Section 12.8.7 had not happened. Any agreement between the Swiss Borrowers
and the Administrative Agent will be, with the prior consent of the Lenders, binding on all the
parties hereto; if no agreement is reached under this Section 12.8.7, this Agreement shall continue
in effect in accordance with its terms.

          12.8.8 Netherlands Bank Rules. The share of each new Lender located in or organized
under the laws of the Netherlands in the Loans and the share of each new Lender hereunder in the
Loans to a Netherlands Borrower (or its portion in the rights and obligations relating to such
Loans transferred by an existing Lender) shall initially be at least the Dollar Equivalent of EUR
50,000 (or such higher amount as may be required at the time of the transfer in order for the New
Lender to qualify as a Professional Market Party) or such new Lender shall otherwise qualify as a
Professional Market Party, and each such new Lender shall confirm the foregoing on the date on
which it becomes a Lender hereunder by execution and delivery of its Assignment and Assumption
Agreement in which the new Lender confirms that it is a Professional Market Party.

     12.9 Confidentiality.

other party hereto, (v) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any
other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan
Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (vi) subject to an agreement
containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (A) any assignee of or

derivative transaction relating to the Borrowers and their obligations, (vii) with the consent of
the Borrowers or (viii) to the extent such Information (Y) becomes publicly available other than as

Lender, the Issuing Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a
source other than the Borrowers or the other Borrowers. Any Person required to maintain the
confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied
with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the
confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential
information.

          12.9.2 Sharing Information With Affiliates of the Lenders. Each Borrower acknowledges
that from time to time financial advisory, investment banking and other services may be offered or

otherwise) by any Lender or by one or more Consolidated Subsidiaries or Affiliates of such Lender
and each of the Borrowers hereby authorizes each Lender to share any information delivered to such
Lender by such Borrower and its Consolidated Subsidiaries pursuant to this Agreement to any such

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

AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN
DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

     12.12 USA PATRIOT Act Notice. Each Lender that is subject to the USA PATRIOT Act and
the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies Borrowers
that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and
record information that identifies the Borrowers, which information includes the name and address
of Borrowers and other information that will allow such Lender or Administrative Agent, as
applicable, to identify the Borrowers in accordance with the USA PATRIOT Act.

     12.13 Borrower Agent. Each of the Borrowers hereby irrevocably appoints the Company
as its agent for purposes of requesting, continuing and converting Loans (including all elections
of interest rates and currencies), for delivering notices as to prepayments and commitment
reductions and for providing consents pursuant to clauses (i) and (iii) of Section 12.8.2
[Assignments by Lenders]. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely in such matters on
all communications delivered by the Company as being delivered on behalf of all Borrowers.

     12.14 Foreign Borrowers.

          12.14.1 Generally. Without limiting the joint and several nature of all Domestic
Borrowers’ Obligations, the Obligations of the Foreign Borrowers shall be several in nature.

          12.14.2 Liability of Foreign Borrowers. The parties intend that this Agreement shall
in all circumstances be interpreted to provide that each Foreign Borrower is

90

 

liable only for Loans made to such Foreign Borrower, interest on such Loans, such Foreign
Borrower’s reimbursement obligations with respect to any Letter of Credit issued for its account
and its ratable share of any of the other Obligations, including, without limitation, general fees,
reimbursements, indemnities and charges hereunder and under any other Loan Document that are
attributable, or attributed as a ratable share, to it. The liability of each Foreign Borrower for
the payment of any of the Obligations or the performance of its covenants, representations and
warranties set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be several from but not
joint with the Obligations of the Company and each other Borrower. Nothing in this Section 12.14
is intended to limit, nor shall it be deemed to limit, any of the liability of the Company or any
Domestic Borrower for any of the Obligations, whether in its primary capacity as a Borrower, as a
Guarantor, at law or otherwise.

          12.14.3 Company as Agent. Each Foreign Borrower, in addition to the appointment of
the Company as the Borrowers’ agent as provided in Section 12.13 [Borrower Agent], further hereby
irrevocably appoints the Company as its agent to receive the proceeds of any Loans made by the
Lender to any such Foreign Borrower hereunder. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely
in such matters on all communications delivered by the Company as being delivered on behalf of the
Foreign Borrowers.

     12.15 Joinder of Borrowers; Release of Foreign Borrowers.

          12.15.1 Joinder of Borrowers. Any Consolidated Subsidiary of the Company which elects
to join this Agreement as a Borrower, pursuant to the terms and provisions of this Agreement, shall
execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent (i) a Borrower Joinder, pursuant to which it shall,
after acceptance of such Borrower Joinder by the Administrative Agent, join this Agreement as a
Domestic Borrower or Foreign Borrower, as applicable, and join each of the other Loan Documents to
which the Domestic Borrower or Foreign Borrower, as applicable, are parties, and (ii) documents in
the forms described in Section 7.1 [First Loans and Letters of Credit] (or foreign jurisdictional
equivalents, if any), modified as appropriate to relate to such Consolidated Subsidiary. The
Company, the other Borrowers and any Borrower joining this Agreement shall also (x) deliver to the
Administrative Agent such amendments or other modifications to the Loan Documents, fully executed
by the appropriate parties thereto, that the Administrative Agent deems necessary or appropriate in
connection with the addition of such Borrower and (y) provide to the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders such other items and shall have satisfied such other conditions as may be reasonably
required by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Foreign
Borrower may be joined pursuant to this Section 12.15.1 if its inclusion as a Borrower under the
Loan Documents would result in any adverse tax or other legal consequences for the Lenders, as
determined by the Administrative Agent. Joinder of each new Borrower pursuant to this Section
12.15.1 shall be subject to compliance with all the other terms and conditions set forth in this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including without limitation Section 8.1.7 [Compliance with
Laws; Use of Proceeds] and Section 5.9 [Taxes].

          12.15.2 Release of Foreign Borrowers. Any Foreign Borrower may from time to time
deliver a termination notice to the Administrative Agent requesting that it no longer be a party
hereto. Such termination shall be effective five (5) Business Days after receipt by the
Administrative Agent so long as all Obligations of such Foreign Borrower have been paid in full

91

 

(including principal, interest and all other amounts) and no Letter of Credit issued for the
account or benefit of such Foreign Borrower is outstanding; provided that, to the extent
this Agreement or any other Loan Document provides for the survival of certain provisions upon
termination hereof, such surviving provisions shall survive a termination under this subSection
with respect to any such Foreign Borrower.
