Exhibit 10.7

EXECUTION COPY

NONCOMPETITION AGREEMENT

     THIS AGREEMENT, dated as of November 21, 2009 is made by and between Marc N. Casper
(“Employee”), and Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., a Delaware corporation whose principal
offices are located at 81 Wyman Street, Waltham, Massachusetts 02454 (“Employer”).

     WHEREAS, Employer, including its subsidiaries and affiliates, is the world leader in the
manufacture, development and distribution of scientific and diagnostic instruments, equipment,
supplies, workstations and chemicals used by clinical and research laboratories, universities and
other life and health sciences customers, as well as diagnostic instruments, test materials and
related products for clinical laboratories; and teaching aids for science education. In addition,
Employer is a leading supplier of occupational health and safety products and maintenance, repair
and operating materials. Employer is also a pioneer in the development of electronic and internet
purchasing, marketing and distribution systems.

     WHEREAS, Employer has developed and continues to develop and use certain trade secrets,
customer lists and other proprietary and confidential information and data, which Employer has
spent a substantial amount of time, effort and money, and will continue to do so in the future, to
develop or acquire such proprietary and confidential information and to promote and increase its
good will.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of Employee’s continued employment by Employer or a
subsidiary or affiliate thereof, Employee understands and agrees to the following:

     Section 1. Employee recognizes and acknowledges that it is essential for the proper
protection of Employer’s legitimate business interests that Employee be restrained for a reasonable
period following the termination of Employee’s employment with Employer, either voluntarily or
involuntarily, from competing with Employer as set forth below.

     Employee acknowledges and agrees that during the term of Employee’s employment with Employer,
and for a period of twenty-four (24) months thereafter, Employee will not, directly or indirectly,
engage, participate or invest in or be employed by any of the companies listed on Exhibit A
attached hereto within the Restricted Area, as defined below, all of which are deemed by Employer
and Employee to be competitors of Employer. The foregoing restrictions shall apply regardless of
the capacity in which Employee engages, participates or invests in or is employed by a given
business, whether as owner, partner, shareholder, consultant, agent, employee, co-venturer or
otherwise. In the event that after the date hereof any of the companies listed on Exhibit A is
acquired by or is merged with a company not listed on Exhibit A, then Exhibit A shall be deemed to
be amended to include the name of the acquirer or the successor to the listed company. After the
date hereof, Employer may amend Exhibit A by written notice to Employee delivered within thirty
(30) days following Employer’s acquisition of a company after the date hereof, to add a competitor
of such acquired company, and provided that such competitor has annual revenues at that time of at
least $300 million. The previous sentence notwithstanding, in the event that after the date
hereof, Employer is acquired by a third party, the right of Employer or its successor to add
competitors to Exhibit A pursuant to the previous sentence shall terminate upon the closing of the
acquisition of Employer.

1

 

     “Restricted Area” shall mean each state and territory of the United States of America and each
country of the world outside of the United States of America in which Employer had developed,
marketed, sold and/or distributed its products and/or services within the last two (2) years of
Employee’s employment.

     Section 2. During the term of Employee’s employment with Employer and for a period of
twenty-four (24) months after termination of Employee’s employment with Employer for any reason,
Employee will not: (i) employ, hire, solicit, induce or identify for employment or attempt to
employ, hire, solicit, induce or identify for employment, any employee(s) of Employer to leave his
or her employment and become an employee, consultant or representative of any other entity
including, but not limited to, Employee’s new employer, if any; and/or (ii) on behalf of any of the
companies listed on Exhibit B attached hereto, solicit, aid in or encourage the solicitation of,
contract with, aid in or encourage the contracting with, service, or contact any person or entity
which is or was, within the two (2) years prior to Employee’s termination of employment with
Employer, a customer or client of Employer, for purposes of marketing, offering or selling a
product or service competitive with Employer.

     Section 3. For the period of twenty-four (24) months immediately following the end of
Employee’s employment by Employer, Employee will inform each new employer, prior to accepting
employment, of the existence of this Agreement and provide that employer with a copy of this
Agreement.

     Section 4. Employee understands and agrees that the provisions of this section shall
not prevent Employee from acquiring or holding publicly traded stock or other publicly traded
securities of a business, so long as Employee’s ownership does not exceed 1% percent of the
outstanding securities of such company of the same class as those held by Employee or from engaging
in any activity or having an ownership interest in any business that is reviewed by the Board of
Directors of Employer.

     Section 5. Employee acknowledges that the time, geographic and scope of activity
limitations set forth herein are reasonable and necessary to protect Employer’s legitimate business
interests. However, if in any judicial proceeding a court refuses to enforce this Agreement,
whether because the time limitation is too long or because the restrictions contained herein are
more extensive (whether as to geographic area, scope of activity or otherwise) than is necessary to
protect the legitimate business interests of Employer, it is expressly understood and agreed
between the parties hereto that this Agreement is deemed modified to the extent necessary to permit
this Agreement to be enforced in any such proceedings.

     Section 6. Employee further acknowledges and agrees that it would be difficult to
measure any damages caused to Employer which might result from any breach by Employee of any of the
promises set forth in this Agreement, and that, in any event, money damages would be an inadequate
remedy for any such breach. Accordingly, Employee acknowledges and agrees that if he or she
breaches or threatens to breach, any portion of this Agreement, Employer shall be entitled, in
addition to all other remedies that it may have: (i) to an injunction or other appropriate
equitable relief to restrain any such breach without showing or proving any actual

2

 

damage to Employer; and (ii) if Employee fails substantially to cure such breach within thirty (30)
days following Executive’s receipt of written notice thereof from Employer, and if a final,
non-appealable order is entered by a court of competent jurisdiction holding Employee liable for a
breach of a material portion of this Agreement, to be relieved of any obligation to provide any
further payment or benefits to Employee or Employee’s dependents.

     Section 7. The parties acknowledge and agree that should it become necessary for
either party to file suit to enforce the covenants contained herein, the prevailing party in such
suit shall be entitled to recover his or its reasonable costs incurred in conducting the suit
including, but not limited, to reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses.

     Section 8. Employee acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement does not constitute a
contract of employment and does not imply that Employer or any of its subsidiaries will continue
Employee’s employment for any period of time.

     Section 9. This Agreement represents the entire understanding of the parties with
respect to the subject matter hereof and any previous agreements or understandings between the
parties regarding the subject matter hereof are merged into and superseded by this Agreement.

     Section 10. This Agreement cannot be modified, amended or changed, nor may compliance
with any provision hereof be waived, except by an instrument in writing executed by the party
against whom enforcement of such modification, amendment, change or waiver is sought. Any waiver
by a party of the breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a
waiver of any other breach of such provision or of any breach of any other provision of this
Agreement. The failure of a party to insist upon strict compliance with any provision of this
Agreement at any time shall not deprive such party of the right to insist upon strict compliance
with such provision at any other time or of the right to insist upon strict compliance with any
other provision hereof at any time.

     Section 11. All notices, requests, demands, consents and other communications which
are required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing, and shall be deemed given when actually
received or if earlier, two days after deposit with the U.S. postal authorities, certified or
registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid or two days after deposit with an
internationally recognized air courier or express mail, charges prepaid, addressed as follows:

Agreement.

3

 

     Section 12. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be
deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

     Section 13. This Agreement shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with, and
shall be governed exclusively by, the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and the federal
laws of the United States of America.

     Section 14. Intentionally Omitted.

     Section 15. Employer shall reimburse Employee for reasonable legal fees incurred in
the negotiation and preparation of this Agreement and the other amendments and agreements being
executed contemporaneously herewith.

interest in the Existing Letters of Credit issued by such L/C Issuer and Letters of Credit issued
hereunder by such L/C Issuer in an amount equal to such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment
Percentage thereof; provided that (A) the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations shall not
exceed FORTY MILLION DOLLARS ($40,000,000) (as such amount may be decreased in accordance with the
provisions hereof, the “L/C Sublimit”), (B) with regard to the Revolving Lenders
collectively, the Outstanding Amount of Revolving Obligations shall not exceed the Aggregate

ability to obtain Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and accordingly the Borrower may
obtain Letters of Credit to replace Letters of Credit that have expired or that have been drawn
upon and reimbursed. Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to have been issued hereunder and
shall be subject to and governed by the terms and conditions hereof.

     (c) Swingline Loans. During the Commitment Period, the Swingline Lender may, in its
sole discretion and in reliance upon the commitments of the other Revolving Lenders set forth
herein, make revolving credit loans (the “Swingline Loans”) to the Borrower on any Business

provisions hereof, the “Swingline Sublimit”) and (ii) with respect to the Revolving Lenders
collectively, the Outstanding Amount of Revolving Obligations shall not exceed the Aggregate
Revolving Committed Amount. Swingline Loans shall be comprised solely of Base Rate Loans, and may
be repaid and reborrowed in accordance with the provisions hereof. Immediately upon the making of
a Swingline Loan, each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Swingline Lender a participation interest in such
Swingline Loan in an amount equal to the product of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment
Percentage thereof.

     (d) Term Loan B. On the Closing Date, the Term Loan B Lenders will make their
respective Term Loan B Commitment Percentage of a term loan (the “Term Loan B”) to the
Borrower in an aggregate principal amount of FOUR HUNDRED FIFTY MILLION DOLLARS ($450,000,000) in a
single advance in Dollars. The Term Loan B will be advanced net of original issue discount as may
be agreed and may consist of Base Rate Loans, Eurodollar Rate Loans, or a combination thereof, as
the Borrower may request. Amounts repaid on the Term Loan B may not be reborrowed.

     (e) Incremental Credit Facilities. At any time on or after the Closing Date, the
Borrower may, on written notice to the Administrative Agent, establish additional credit facilities
(collectively, the “Incremental Credit Facilities”) by increasing the Aggregate Revolving
Committed Amount (the “Incremental Revolving Loan Facility”), increasing the amount of the
Term Loan B (the “Incremental Term Loan B Facility”) or establishing a new term loan or loans as
provided herein; provided that, in any such case:

     (i) the aggregate amount of loans and commitments for all Incremental Credit Facilities
established after the Closing Date hereunder shall not exceed FIFTY MILLION DOLLARS
($50,000,000);

     (ii) no Default or Event of Default shall exist immediately before or immediately after
giving effect thereto on a Pro Forma Basis (assuming for purposes hereof, that the amount of
the incremental commitments is fully drawn and funded);

     (iii) the establishment of the Incremental Credit Facilities and the extension of
credit thereunder are subject to satisfaction of the conditions to all Credit Extensions in
Section 5.02;

31

 

     (iv) the Borrower will provide (A) a compliance certificate from a Responsible Officer
confirming satisfaction of the foregoing conditions in clauses (ii) and (iii) above and
demonstrating compliance with the financial covenants hereunder after giving effect to the
Incremental Credit Facility on a Pro Forma Basis (assuming for purposes hereof, that the
amount of the incremental commitments is fully drawn and funded), and (B) supporting
resolutions, legal opinions, promissory notes and other items as may be reasonably required
by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders providing the loans and commitments for the
Incremental Credit Facility;

     (v) lenders providing loans and commitments for the Incremental Credit Facility will
provide a Lender Joinder Agreement and such other agreements reasonably acceptable to the
Administrative Agent;

     (vi) upfront and/or arrangement fees, if any, in respect of the new commitments or
loans so established, shall be paid; and

     (vii) to the extent necessary in the reasonable judgment of the Administrative Agent,
amendments to each of the Collateral Documents, if any, and related documents or agreements
shall have been made, in each case in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative
Agent.

In connection with establishment of any Incremental Credit Facility, (A) none of the Lenders or
their Affiliates shall have any obligation to provide commitments or loans for any Incremental
Credit Facility without their prior written approval, (B) neither the Administrative Agent nor any
of the Joint Lead Arrangers shall have any responsibility for arranging any such additional
commitments without their prior written consent and subject to such conditions, including fee
arrangements, as they may provide in connection therewith and (C) Schedule 2.01 will be
deemed to be revised to reflect the Lenders, Loans, Commitments and pro rata shares or percentages
after giving effect to establishment of any Incremental Credit Facility.

     (f) Additional Conditions for Establishment of Incremental Revolving Loan Facility.
In addition to the requirements of Section 2.01(e), establishment of an Incremental
Revolving Loan Facility is subject to the following additional conditions:

     (i) any such increase will be in a minimum principal amount of $20 million and integral
multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof;

     (ii) any new lender providing loans and commitments for the Incremental Revolving Loan
Facilities must be reasonably acceptable to the L/C Issuers and the Swingline Lender; and

     (iii) if any Revolving Loans are outstanding at the time of the establishment of an
Incremental Revolving Loan Facility, the Borrower will make such payments and adjustments on
the Revolving Loans (including payment of any break-funding amounts owing under Section
3.05) as may be necessary to give effect to the revised commitment amounts and
percentages, it being agreed that the Administrative Agent shall, in consultation with the
Borrower, manage the allocation of the revised commitments percentages to the existing
Eurodollar Rate Loans in such a manner as to minimize the break-funding amounts so payable
by the Borrower.

     (g) Additional
Conditions for Establishment of Incremental Term Loan B Facility. In addition
to the requirements of Section 2.01(e), establishment of
an Incremental Term Loan B Facility is
subject to the following additional conditions:

     (i) any such increase will be in a minimum principal amount of $20 million and integral
multiples of $1 million in excess thereof;

32

 

     (ii) the Borrower will make such payments and adjustments on the Term Loan B (including
payment of any break-funding amounts owing under Section 3.05) as may be necessary
to give effect to the revised commitment amounts and percentages, it being agreed that the
Administrative Agent shall, in consultation with the Borrower, manage the allocation of the
revised commitments percentages to the existing Eurodollar Rate Loans in such a manner as to
minimize the break-funding amounts so payable by the Borrower; and

     (iii) in the case of an increase in the amount of the Term Loan B after the first
principal amortization payment date, adjustments will be made to the applicable schedule of
amortization payment provided in Section 2.05(c)(i), as appropriate, to give effect
thereto such that payments of principal, interest and other amounts will be made on the same
basis as for the underlying Term Loan B and the principal amortization payments made to the
holders of the Term Loan B will be not less than that which was payable prior to giving
effect to the Incremental Credit Facility.

Any
Incremental Term Loan B Facility shall have terms identical to those for the existing Term Loan B,
except for fees payable to the Lenders providing commitments for the
Incremental Term Loan B Facility.

     (h) Additional Conditions for Establishment of Other Incremental Term Loan Facilities.
In addition to the requirements of Section 2.01(e), establishment of another term loan is
subject to the following additional conditions:

     (i) any such increase will be in a minimum principal amount of $20 million and integral
multiples of $1 million in excess thereof;

     (ii) if the incremental term loan will be made by way of increasing the aggregate
amount of loans and commitments under another term loan established hereunder, the Borrower
will make such payments and adjustments on the existing term loan (including payment of any
break-funding amounts owing under Section 3.05) as may be necessary to give effect
to the revised commitment amounts and percentages, it being agreed that the Administrative
Agent shall, in consultation with the Borrower, manage the allocation of the revised
commitments percentages to the existing Eurodollar Rate Loans in such a manner as to
minimize the break-funding amounts so payable by the Borrower;

     (iii) the term loan being established will have a final maturity date that is
coterminous with or later than the final maturity date for the Term Loan B and an average
life-to-maturity from the date of issuance not sooner than the average life-to-maturity of
the Term Loan B from such date;

     (iv) in the case of an increase in the amount of another term loan established
hereunder after the first principal amortization payment date, adjustments will be made to
the schedule of amortization payment provided in Section 2.05(c) or in other
documentation establishing the existing underlying term loan, as appropriate, to give effect
thereto such that payments of principal, interest and other amounts will be made on the same
basis as for the existing underlying term loan and the principal amortization payments made
to the holders of the existing underlying term loan will be not less than that which was
payable prior to giving effect to the Incremental Credit Facility;

33

 

     (v) the parties acknowledge that pricing for Incremental Credit Facilities that are
term loans established after the Closing Date may be higher or lower than pricing currently
applicable to the Term Loan B; provided, that if the all-in-yield, after giving
effect to any offering of such term loan at a discount from par or any fees (other than
arrangement fees) paid to the lenders in connection therewith, exceeds the all-in-yield (as
reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent) by more than fifty basis points (0.50%)
with respect to the Term Loan B or any term loan established as an Incremental Credit
Facility hereunder (other than arrangement fees), then the Applicable Percentage and/or fees
payable by the Borrower with respect to the Term Loan B and any such other term loan
established as an Incremental Credit Facility hereunder shall be increased to the extent
necessary to cause the all-in-yield with respect thereto (as calculated above) to be no more
than fifty basis points (0.50%) with respect to either of the Term Loan B or any such other
term loan established as an Incremental Credit Facility hereunder less than, in each case,
the all-in-yield (as calculated above) with respect to any such term loan (with the amount
and manner of such increase to be determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower,
in accordance with the foregoing, as of the date of effectiveness of the applicable
Incremental Credit Facility); and

     (vi) except with respect to pricing as provided in clause (v) above or maturity and/or
amortization as provided in clause (iii) above, any additional term loan established
pursuant to this clause (h), shall have terms that are the same or less restrictive
than those for the Term Loan B.

For purposes of this subsection only, the Applicable Percentage for any new term loan established
hereunder will be deemed to include all upfront or similar fees or original issue discount
(amortized over the life of such term loan) payable to all Lenders of such term loans, but
exclusive of any arrangement, structuring or other fees payable in connection therewith that are
not shared with all Lenders of such term loans.

This subsection shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.11 or 11.01 to the
contrary.

     2.02 Borrowings, Conversions and Continuations.

     (a) Each Borrowing, each conversion of Loans from one Type to the other, and each continuation
of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be made upon the Borrower’s irrevocable notice to the Administrative
Agent, which may be given by telephone. Each such notice must be received by the Administrative
Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (i) with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans, three (3) Business Days
prior to the requested date of, or (ii) with respect to Base Rate Loans, on the requested date of,
any Borrowing, conversion or continuation. Each telephonic notice by the Borrower pursuant to this
Section 2.02(a) must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a
written Loan Notice, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower.
Except as provided in Sections 2.03(c) and 2.04(a), each Borrowing, conversion or
continuation shall be in a principal amount of (i) with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans, $1
million or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof (or, if less, the entire unfunded amount
of the Aggregate Revolving Committed Amount) or (ii) with respect to Base Rate Loans, $500,000 or a
whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof (or, if less, the entire unfunded amount of the
Aggregate Revolving Committed Amount). Each Loan Notice (whether telephonic or written) shall
specify (i) whether the Borrower’s request is with respect to Revolving Loans or the Term Loan,
(ii) whether such request is for a Borrowing, conversion, or continuation, (iii) the requested date
of such Borrowing, conversion or continuation (which shall be a Business Day), (iv) the principal
amount of Loans to be borrowed, converted or continued, (v) the Type

34

 

of Loans to be borrowed, converted or continued, and (vi) if applicable, the duration of the
Interest Period with respect thereto. If the Borrower fails to specify a Type of Loan in a Loan
Notice or if the Borrower fails to give a timely notice requesting a conversion or continuation,
then the applicable Loans shall be made as, or converted to, Base Rate Loans. Any automatic
conversion to Base Rate Loans shall be effective as of the last day of the Interest Period then in
effect with respect to the applicable Eurodollar Rate Loans. If the Borrower requests a Borrowing
of, conversion to, or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans in any Loan Notice, but fails to
specify an Interest Period, the Interest Period will be deemed to be one month.

     (b) Following receipt of a Loan Notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each
Lender of the amount of its pro rata share of the applicable Loans, and if no timely notice of a
conversion or continuation is provided by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall notify each
Lender of the details of any automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans described in the preceding
subsection. In the case of a Borrowing, each Lender shall make the amount of its Loan available to
the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office not
later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in the applicable Loan Notice. Upon
satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 5.02 (and, if such Borrowing
is the initial Credit Extension, Section 5.01), the Administrative Agent shall make all
funds so received available to the Borrower in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent
either by (i) crediting the account of the Borrower on the books of Bank of America with the amount
of such funds or (ii) wire transfer of such funds, in each case in accordance with instructions
provided to (and reasonably acceptable to) the Administrative Agent by the Borrower;
provided, however, that if on the date of such Borrowing there are L/C Borrowings
outstanding, then the proceeds of such Borrowing shall be applied, first, to the payment in
full of any such L/C Borrowings, and second, to the Borrower as provided above.

     (c) Except as otherwise provided herein, a Eurodollar Rate Loan may be continued or converted
only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurodollar Rate Loan. After the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Event of Default, no Loans may be requested as, converted to or
continued as Eurodollar Rate Loans without the consent of the Required Revolving Lenders or
Required Term Loan B Lenders, as appropriate.

     (d) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the
interest rate applicable to any Interest Period for Eurodollar Rate Loans upon determination of
such interest rate. The determination of the Eurodollar Rate by the Administrative Agent shall be
conclusive in the absence of manifest error. At any time that Base Rate Loans are outstanding, the
Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders of any change in the Prime Rate
promptly following the public announcement of such change.

     (e) After giving effect to all Borrowings, conversions and continuations of Revolving Loans,
there shall not be more than (i) ten (10) Interest Periods in effect with respect to Revolving
Loans, (ii) six (6) Interest Periods in effect with respect to the Term Loan B, and (iii) six (6)
Interest Periods in effect with respect to any other term loan established under the Incremental
Credit Facilities.

     2.03 Additional Provisions with respect to Letters of Credit.

     (a) Obligation to Issue or Amend.

     (i) An L/C Issuer shall not issue any Letter of Credit, if:

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

35

 

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

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

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

     (C) except as otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and such L/C Issuer,
such Letter of Credit is in an initial stated amount less than $500,000;

     (D) such Letter of Credit is to be denominated in a currency other than

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

     (F) any Revolving Lender is at such time an Impacted Lender or a Defaulting
Lender, whether on account of a failure to fund its obligations under Section
2.03(c) or otherwise, unless such Revolving Lender shall have provided Adequate
Assurance.

     (iii) An L/C Issuer shall not amend any Letter of Credit if such L/C Issuer would not
be permitted at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms
hereof.

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

     (v) Each L/C Issuer shall act on behalf of the Revolving Lenders with respect to any
Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and each L/C Issuer
shall have all of the benefits and immunities (A) provided to the Administrative Agent in
Article X with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by such L/C Issuer in
connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and Issuer
Documents pertaining to such

36

 

Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent” as used in Article
X included such L/C Issuer with respect to such acts or omissions, and (B) as
additionally provided herein with respect to such L/C Issuer.

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

     (i) Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, upon the
request of the Borrower delivered to an L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent)
in the form of a L/C Application, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible
Officer of the Borrower. Such L/C Application must be received by the applicable L/C Issuer
and the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. at least two (2) Business Days (or
such other date and time as the Administrative Agent and such L/C Issuer may agree in a
particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the proposed issuance date or date of
amendment, as the case may be. In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter
of Credit, such L/C Application shall specify in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to
such L/C Issuer: (A) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which
shall be a Business Day); (B) the amount thereof; (C) the expiry date thereof; (D) the name
and address of the beneficiary thereof; (E) the documents to be presented by such
beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (F) the full text of any certificate to be
presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (G) the purpose and nature
of the requested Letter of Credit and (H) such other matters as such L/C Issuer may
reasonably require. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of
Credit, such L/C Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to such L/C
Issuer (A) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (B) the proposed date of amendment thereof
(which shall be a Business Day); (C) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (D) such
other matters as such L/C Issuer may reasonably require. Additionally, the Borrower shall
furnish to applicable L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent such other documents and
information pertaining to such requested Letter of Credit issuance or amendment, including
any Issuer Documents, as such L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent may reasonably require.

     (ii) Promptly after receipt of any L/C Application, the applicable L/C Issuer will
confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative
Agent has received a copy of such L/C Application from the Borrower and, if not, such L/C
Issuer will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Unless such L/C Issuer
has received written notice from the Required Lenders, the Required Revolving Lenders, the
Administrative Agent or any Credit Party, at least one (1) Business Day prior to the
requested date of issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more
applicable conditions contained in Article V shall not then be satisfied (in which
case the applicable L/C Issuer shall not issue a Letter a Credit), then, subject to the
terms and conditions hereof, such L/C Issuer shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of
Credit for the account of the Borrower (or the applicable Subsidiary) or enter into the
applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with such L/C Issuer’s
usual and customary business practices. Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of
Credit, each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally
agrees to, purchase from such L/C Issuer a risk participation in such Letter of Credit in an
amount equal to the product of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage
times the amount of such Letter of Credit.

     (iii) If the Borrower so requests in any applicable L/C Application, the applicable L/C
Issuer may, in its sole and absolute discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has
automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”);
provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit such L/C Issuer
to prevent any such extension at least

37

 

once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter
of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the
“Non-Extension Notice Date”) in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at
the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by such L/C Issuer, the
Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to such L/C Issuer for any such
extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Revolving Lenders
shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) such L/C Issuer to permit the
extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the L/C
Expiration Date; provided, however, that such L/C Issuer shall not permit
any such extension if (A) such L/C Issuer has determined that it would not be permitted, or
would have no obligation, at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form
(as extended) under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of clause (ii) or
(iii) of Section 2.03(a) or otherwise), or (B) it has received notice (which
may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is seven (7) Business Days
before the Non-Extension Notice Date from the Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders,
the Required Revolving Lenders or any Credit Party that one or more of the applicable
conditions specified in Section 5.02 is not then satisfied, and directing such L/C
Issuer not to permit such extension.

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

     (c) Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations.

     (i) Upon any drawing under any Letter of Credit, the applicable L/C Issuer shall notify
the Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof. Not later than 11:00 a.m. on the date of
any payment by the applicable L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit (each such date, an
“Honor Date”), the Borrower shall reimburse such L/C Issuer through the
Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing. If the Borrower
fails to so reimburse such L/C Issuer by such time, the Administrative Agent shall promptly
notify each Revolving Lender of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (the
“Unreimbursed Amount”), and the amount of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving
Commitment Percentage thereof. In such event, the Borrower shall be deemed to have
requested a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans to be disbursed on the Honor Date in an amount
equal to the Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in
Section 2.02 for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the amount
of the unutilized portion of the Aggregate Revolving Committed Amount and the conditions set
forth in Section 5.02 (other than the delivery of a Loan Notice). Any notice given
by an L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.03(c)(i) may
be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of
such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such
notice.

     (ii) Each Revolving Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i)
make funds available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable L/C
Issuer at the Administrative Agent’s Office in an amount equal to its Revolving Commitment
Percentage of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified
in such notice by the Administrative Agent, whereupon, subject to the provisions of
Section 2.03(c)(iii), each Revolving Lender that so makes funds available shall be
deemed to have made a Revolving Loan that is a Base Rate Loan to the Borrower in such
amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the applicable L/C
Issuer.

38

 

     (iii)
With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a
Borrowing of Base Rate Loans because the conditions set forth in Section 5.02
cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, the Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred
from the applicable L/C Issuer an L/C Borrowing in the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount
that is not so refinanced, which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together
with interest) and shall bear interest at the Default Rate. In such event, each Revolving
Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of applicable L/C Issuer
pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(ii) shall be deemed payment in respect of its
participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such Revolving
Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.03.

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

     (v) Each Revolving Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans or L/C Advances to
reimburse the L/C Issuers for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this
Section 2.03(c), shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by
any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right
which such Revolving Lender may have against any L/C Issuer, the Borrower or any other
Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or Event of
Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of
the foregoing; provided, however, that each Revolving Lender’s obligation to
make Loans pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) is subject to the conditions set forth
in Section 5.02 (other than delivery by the Borrower of a Loan Notice). No such
making of an L/C Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to
reimburse each L/C Issuer for the amount of any payment made by such L/C Issuer under any
Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein.

     (vi) If any Revolving Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for
the account of an L/C Issuer any amount required to be paid by such Revolving Lender
pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.03(c) by the time specified
in Section 2.03(c)(ii), such L/C Issuer shall be entitled to recover from such
Revolving Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with
interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which
such payment is immediately available to such L/C Issuer at a rate per annum equal to the
greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by such L/C Issuer in accordance
with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing
or similar fees customarily charged by such L/C Issuer in connection with the foregoing. If
such Revolving Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so
paid (exclusive of such interest and fees) shall constitute such Revolving Lender’s
Revolving Loan included in the relevant Borrowing or L/C Advance in respect of the relevant
L/C Borrowing, as the case may be. A certificate of an L/C Issuer submitted to any
Revolving Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under
this clause (vi) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

     (d) Repayment of Participations.

     (i) At any time after an L/C Issuer has made a payment under any Letter of Credit and
has received from any Revolving Lender such Revolving Lender’s L/C Advance in respect of
such payment in accordance with Section 2.03(c), if the Administrative Agent
receives for the account of such L/C Issuer any payment in respect of the related
Unreimbursed Amount or interest thereon (whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise,
including proceeds of Cash

39

 

Collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent will
distribute to such Revolving Lender its Revolving Commitment Percentage thereof
(appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time
during which such Revolving Lender’s L/C Advance was outstanding) in the same funds as those
received by the Administrative Agent.

     (ii) If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of an L/C
Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) is required to be returned under any of the
circumstances described in Section 11.05 (including pursuant to any settlement
entered into by such L/C Issuer in its discretion), each Revolving Lender shall pay to the
Administrative Agent for the account of such L/C Issuer its Revolving Commitment Percentage
thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date
of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Revolving Lender, at a rate per
annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the
Revolving Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and
the termination of this Credit Agreement.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

40

 

     (f) Role of L/C Issuers. Each Revolving Lender and the Borrower agree that, in paying
any drawing under a Letter of Credit, an L/C Issuer shall not have any responsibility to obtain any
document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter
of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the
authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the L/C Issuers, the
Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or
assignee of any L/C Issuer shall be liable to any Revolving Lender for (i) any action taken or
omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Required Lenders or the
Required Revolving Lenders, as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross
negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or
enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Issuer Document.
The Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee
with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this
assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Borrower’s pursuing such rights and
remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement.
None of the L/C Issuers, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any
correspondent, participant or assignee of any L/C Issuer shall be liable or responsible for any of
the matters described in clauses (i) through (v) of Section 2.03(e);
provided, however, that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding,
the Borrower may have a claim against the applicable L/C Issuer, and such L/C Issuer may be liable
to the Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential
or exemplary, damages suffered by the Borrower which the Borrower proves were caused by such L/C
Issuer’s willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence or such L/C Issuer’s willful failure to
pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and
certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit. In
furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, each L/C Issuer may accept documents that
appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless
of any notice or information to the contrary, and no L/C Issuer shall be responsible for the
validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or
assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in
part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason.

     (g) Cash Collateral. Upon the request of the Administrative Agent, (i) if an L/C
Issuer has honored any full or partial drawing request under any Letter of Credit and such drawing
has resulted in an L/C Borrowing, or (ii) if, as of the L/C Expiration Date, any L/C Obligation for
any reason remains outstanding, the Borrower shall, in each case, immediately Cash Collateralize
the then Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations or enter into some other arrangement
satisfactory to such L/C Issuer in its reasonable discretion to ensure that such L/C Issuer will be
made whole with respect to any such L/C Obligation (any such arrangements, “Alternative
Arrangements”). Sections 2.06 and 9.02(c) set forth certain additional
requirements to deliver Cash Collateral hereunder. “Cash Collateralize” means to pledge
and deposit with or deliver to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the applicable L/C
Issuer and the Revolving Lenders, as collateral for the L/C Obligations, cash or deposit account
balances pursuant to documentation in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent
and such L/C Issuer (which documents are hereby consented to by the Revolving Lenders).
Derivatives of such term have corresponding meanings. The Borrower hereby grants to the Collateral
Agent, for the benefit of the L/C Issuers and the Revolving Lenders, a security interest in all
such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein and all proceeds of the foregoing. Cash
Collateral shall be maintained in blocked, non-interest bearing deposit accounts at Bank of
America.

     (h) Applicability of ISP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the applicable L/C
Issuer and

41

 

the Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued (including any such agreement applicable to an
Existing Letter of Credit), the rules of the ISP shall apply to each Letter of Credit.

     (i) Letters of Credit Issued for Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding that a Letter of
Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account
of, any Subsidiary of the Borrower, the Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the applicable L/C
Issuer for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that
the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrower’s Subsidiaries inures to the
benefit of the Borrower, and that the Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the
businesses of such Subsidiaries.

     (j) Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower shall pay Letter of Credit fees as set forth
in Section 2.09.

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

     (l) Agreement of L/C Issuers. Each L/C Issuer (other than any L/C Issuer with respect
to Existing Letters of Credit) hereby agrees to submit to the Administrative Agent on a monthly
basis a report listing each of the Letters of Credit issued by such L/C Issuer, including
information with respect to each Letter of Credit’s stated amount, Letter of Credit number, expiry
date and beneficiary.

     2.04 Additional Provisions with respect to Swingline Loans.

     (a) Borrowing Procedures. Each Swingline Borrowing shall be made upon the Borrower’s
irrevocable notice to the Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent, which may be given by
telephone. Each such notice must be received by the Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent
not later than 1:00 p.m. on the requested borrowing date, and shall specify (i) the amount to be
borrowed, which shall be a minimum of $100,000, and (ii) the requested borrowing date, which shall
be a Business Day. Each such telephonic notice must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the
Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent of a written Loan Notice, appropriately completed and
signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower. Promptly after receipt by the Swingline Lender of
any telephonic Loan Notice, the Swingline Lender will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by
telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has also received such Loan Notice and, if
not, the Swingline Lender will notify the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) of the
contents thereof. Unless the Swingline Lender has received notice (by telephone or in writing)
from the Administrative Agent (including at the request of the Required Revolving Lenders) prior to
2:00 p.m. on the date of the proposed Swingline Borrowing (A) directing the Swingline Lender not to
make such Swingline Loan as a result of the limitations set forth in this Article II, or
(B) that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Article V  is not then
satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swingline Lender will, not later
than 3:00 p.m. on the borrowing date specified in such Loan Notice, make the amount of its
Swingline Loan available to the Borrower at its office by crediting the account of the Borrower on
the books of the Swingline Lender in immediately available funds. The Swingline Lender shall not
be under any obligation to make a Swingline Loan if any Revolving Lender is at such time a Impacted
Lender or a Defaulting Lender, whether on account of a failure to fund its obligations under
Section 2.04(b)(ii) or otherwise, unless such Defaulting Lender shall have provided
Adequate Assurance.

     (b) Refinancing.

     (i) The Swingline Lender at any time in its sole and absolute discretion may request,
on behalf of the Borrower (which hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swingline Lender to so
request on its behalf), that each Revolving Lender make a Revolving Loan that is a Base Rate

42

 

Loan in an amount equal to such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of
Swingline Loans then outstanding. Such request shall be made in writing (which written
request shall be deemed to be a Loan Notice for purposes hereof) and in accordance with the
requirements of Section 2.02, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified
therein for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, the unutilized portion of the Aggregate
Revolving Commitments or the conditions set forth in Section 5.02. The Swingline
Lender shall furnish the Borrower with a copy of the applicable Loan Notice promptly after
delivering such notice to the Administrative Agent. Each Revolving Lender shall make an
amount equal to its Revolving Commitment Percentage of the amount specified in such Loan
Notice available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds for the account
of the Swingline Lender at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later than 1:00 p.m. on the
day specified in such Loan Notice, whereupon, subject to Section 2.04(c)(ii), each
Revolving Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Revolving Loan
that is a Base Rate Loan to the Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall
remit the funds so received to the Swingline Lender.

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

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

     (iv) Each Revolving Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans or to purchase and fund
risk participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this Section 2.04(b) shall be
absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any
setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Revolving Lender may have
against the Swingline Lender, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever,
(B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or Event of Default, (C) non-compliance with
the conditions set forth in Section 5.02, or (D) any other occurrence, event or
condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided that Swingline
Lender has complied with the provisions of Section 2.04(a). No such purchase or
funding of risk participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the
Borrower to repay Swingline Loans, together with interest as provided herein.

43

 

     (c)
Repayment of Participations.

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

     (ii) If any payment received by the Swingline Lender in respect of principal or
interest on any Swingline Loan is required to be returned by the Swingline Lender under any
of the circumstances described in Section 11.05 (including pursuant to any
settlement entered into by the Swingline Lender in its discretion), each Revolving Lender
shall pay to the Swingline Lender its Revolving Commitment Percentage thereof on demand of
the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date
such amount is returned, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate. The
Administrative Agent will make such demand upon the request of the Swingline Lender. The
obligations of the Revolving Lenders under this clause shall survive the Termination Date.

     (d) Interest for Account of Swingline Lender. The Swingline Lender shall be
responsible for invoicing the Borrower for interest on the Swingline Loans. Until each Revolving
Lender funds its Revolving Loan or risk participation pursuant to this Section 2.04 to
refinance such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of any Swingline Loan, interest
in respect thereof shall be solely for the account of the Swingline Lender.

     (e) Payments Directly to Swingline Lender. The Borrower shall make all payments of
principal and interest in respect of the Swingline Loans directly to the Swingline Lender.

     2.05 Repayment of Loans.

     (a) Revolving Loans. The principal amount of the Revolving Loans is due and payable
in full on the Revolving Termination Date.

     (b) Swingline Loans. The principal amount of the Swingline Loans is due and payable
in full on the earlier to occur of (i) the date three (3) Business Days following demand by the
Swingline Lender and (ii) the Revolving Termination Date.

44

 

     (c) Term Loans.

     (i) The principal amount of the Term Loan B shall be repaid in quarterly installments
on the dates set forth below as follows (as such amounts set forth may be reduced or
eliminated after giving effect to the application of prepayments under Section

     (ii) Incremental Credit Facilities. The Borrower shall repay to the Lenders
the outstanding principal amount of loans under the Incremental Credit Facilities, if any,
as provided in the respective documentation establishing such Incremental Credit Facilities.

     2.06 Prepayments.

     (a) Voluntary Prepayments. The Loans may be repaid in whole or in part without
premium or penalty (except, in the case of Loans other than Base Rate Loans, amounts payable
pursuant to Section 3.05); provided that:

     (i) in the case of Loans other than Swingline Loans, (A) notice thereof must be
received by 11:00 a.m. by the Administrative Agent at least three (3) Business Days prior to
the date of prepayment, in the case of Eurodollar Rate Loans, and one (1) Business Day prior
to the date of prepayment, in the case of Base Rate Loans, (B) any such prepayment shall be
in a minimum principal amount of $5 million and integral multiples of $1 million in excess
thereof, in the case of Eurodollar Rate Loans and $500,000 and integral multiples of
$100,000 in excess thereof, in the case of Base Rate Loans, or, in each case, the entire
remaining principal amount thereof, if less; and

     (ii) in the case of Swingline Loans, (A) notice thereof must be received by the
Swingline Lender by 1:00 p.m. on the date of prepayment (with a copy to the Administrative
Agent), and (B) any such prepayment shall be in the same minimum principal amounts as for
advances thereof (or any lesser amount that may be acceptable to the Swingline Lender).

Each such notice of voluntary prepayment hereunder shall be irrevocable (except as provided below)
and shall specify the date and amount of prepayment and the Loans and Types of Loans that are being
prepaid, and, if Eurodollar Rate Loans are to be prepaid, the Interest Periods therefor. Any
notice delivered under this Section 2.06(a) in connection with an abandoned or delayed refinancing
of, amendment, restatement, amendment and restatement, extension, supplement or other modification
to the Loans or the Credit Documents, as applicable, may be revoked by written or telephonic notice
to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the applicable proposed prepayment date. The
Administrative Agent will give prompt notice to the applicable Lenders of any prepayment on the
Loans and each Lender’s interest therein. Prepayments of Eurodollar Rate Loans hereunder shall be
accompanied by accrued interest on the amount prepaid and breakage or other amounts due, if any,
under Section 3.05.

45

 

     (b) Mandatory Prepayments.

     (i) Revolving Commitments. If at any time (A) the Outstanding Amount of
Revolving Obligations shall exceed the Aggregate Revolving Committed Amount, (B) the
Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations shall exceed the L/C Sublimit, or (C) the Outstanding
Amount of Swingline Loans shall exceed the Swingline Sublimit, immediate prepayment will be
made on or in respect of the Revolving Obligations in an amount equal to such excess;
provided, however, that, except with respect to clause (B), L/C Obligations
will not be Cash Collateralized hereunder until the Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans have
been paid in full.

     (ii) Dispositions and Involuntary Dispositions. Prepayment will be made on the
Loan Obligations no later than the tenth (10th) Business Day following receipt of
Net Cash Proceeds required to be prepaid pursuant to the provisions hereof in an amount
equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the Net Cash Proceeds received from any Disposition
(other than as may be permitted under clauses (a), (c)(i), (e)
through (i), and (k) through (m) of Section 8.05) or
Involuntary Disposition by any member of the Consolidated Group, to the extent (A) such
proceeds are not reinvested in the same or similar properties or assets within 270 days of
the date of receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds and (B) the aggregate amount of such proceeds
that are not reinvested in accordance with clause (A) hereof exceeds (1) $10 million
for any transaction or series of related transactions, (2) $20 million in any fiscal year

any Debt Transactions no later than the tenth (10th) Business Day following
receipt thereof; provided that the mandatory prepayment required under this
clause (iii) with respect to Funded Debt permitted under Section 8.03(i)

Permitted Acquisitions and Permitted Joint Venture Investments within ten (10) Business Days
of receipt thereof.

     (iv) Equity Transactions. Where the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio is equal
to or greater than 2.25:1.0 after giving effect thereto on a Pro Forma Basis and the
application of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof, prepayment will be made on the Loan
Obligations in an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of the Net Cash Proceeds from any
Equity Transactions no later than the tenth (10th) Business Day following receipt

46

 

     (v) Consolidated Excess Cash Flow. Commencing with the date of delivery of the
Compliance Certificate delivered with respect to fiscal year ending December 31, 2010,
prepayment will be made on the Loan Obligations, on the third Business Day following
delivery of each annual Compliance Certificate delivered under Section 7.02(a) from
Consolidated Excess Cash Flow in an amount equal to the percentage as shown below:

	 	 	 
	 	 	Percentage of Consolidated Excess Cash
	Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio	 	Flow
	 
	> 2.25:1.0
	 	50.0%
	> 1.75:1.0, but
<  2.25:1.0
	 	25.0%
	< 1.75:1.0
	 	     0%

; provided, that the amount of mandatory prepayments required with respect to any
fiscal year required under this clause (v) shall be reduced by the amount of (A) any
voluntary prepayments on the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.06(a) and (B)
voluntary prepayment on the Revolving Obligations pursuant to Section 2.06(a) that
are accompanied by a permanent reduction in Revolving Commitments pursuant to Section
2.07, in each case made at any time during such fiscal year or (without duplication)
after the end of such fiscal year and prior to the date any such prepayment is required
under this clause (v).

     (c) Application. Within each Loan, prepayments will be applied first to Base Rate
Loans, then to Eurodollar Rate Loans in direct order of Interest Period maturities. In addition:

     (i) Voluntary Prepayments. Voluntary prepayments will be applied as specified
in writing by the Borrower; provided that:

     (A) in the case of prepayments on the Term Loans, the prepayments will be
applied on a pro rata basis to the Term Loan B and any other term loan established
after the Closing Date under the Incremental Credit Facility until paid in full; and

     (B) in the case of prepayments on any Term Loan, the prepayments will be
applied to remaining principal installments thereunder as directed in writing by the
Borrower.

     (ii) Mandatory Prepayments. Mandatory prepayments will be applied as follows:

     (A) Mandatory prepayments in respect of the Revolving Commitments under
subsection (b)(i) above shall be applied to the respective Revolving
Obligations as appropriate.

     (B) Mandatory prepayments in respect of Dispositions and Involuntary
Dispositions under subsection (b)(ii) above, Debt Transactions under
subsection (b)(iii), Equity Transactions under subsection (b)(iv),
and Consolidated Excess Cash Flow under subsection (b)(v) shall be applied
as follows: first, on a pro rata basis to the Term Loans, until paid in full, and
then to the Revolving Obligations. Mandatory prepayments on the Term Loans will be
applied on a pro rata basis among the Term Loans to remaining principal installments
thereunder in direct order of maturity. Mandatory prepayments on the Revolving
Obligations will be applied, first, to the repayment of outstanding Swingline Loans
(without a reduction in the Swingline Sublimit), second, to the repayment of the
outstanding Revolving Loans (without a reduction in the Revolving Commitments or the
Aggregate Revolving Committed Amount) and, third, to Cash Collateralize the L/C
Obligations.

     (iii) Prepayments on the Loan Obligations will be paid by the Administrative Agent to
the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective interests therein (except for
Defaulting Lenders where their share will be held as provided in Section 2.14(a)
hereof).

47

 

     (d) Option to Decline. The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing
of any mandatory prepayment of the Term Loans required to be made pursuant to clauses (ii) through
(v), inclusive, of Section 2.06(b) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the date of such
prepayment. Each such notice shall specify the date of such prepayment and provide a reasonably
detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment. The Administrative Agent will promptly
notify each of the applicable Term Loan Lenders of the contents of any such prepayment notice and
of its Term Loan Commitment Percentage of the prepayment. Any such Term Loan Lender may elect to
decline its share of the prepayment (a “Declining Lender”, and any such Term Loan Lender
that is not a Declining Lender, an “Accepting Lender”) by delivering written notice of its
election to the Administrative Agent not less than two (2) Business Days prior to the proposed
prepayment date. Any such prepayment amounts that are so declined may be retained by the Borrower.

     2.07 Termination or Reduction of Revolving Commitments.

     The Revolving Commitments hereunder may be permanently reduced in whole or in part by notice
from the Borrower to the Administrative Agent; provided that (i) any such notice thereof
must be received by 11:00 a.m. at least three (3) Business Days prior to the date of reduction or
termination and any such reduction shall be in a minimum principal amount of $5 million and
integral multiples of $1 million in excess thereof; and (ii) the Revolving Commitments may not be
reduced to an amount less than the Revolving Obligations then outstanding thereunder (after giving
effect to any Cash Collateralization or Alternative Arrangements). The Administrative Agent will
give prompt notice to the Revolving Lenders of any such reduction in Revolving Commitments. Except
as provided in Section 2.14, any reduction of Revolving Commitments shall be applied
ratably to the commitment of each Revolving Lender according to its commitment percentage thereof.
All commitment or other fees accrued with respect thereto through the effective date of any
termination of Revolving Commitments shall be paid on the effective date of such termination.

     2.08 Interest.

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

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

     (ii) During the continuance of an Event of Default under Section 9.01(f), the
Borrower shall pay interest on the principal amount of all outstanding Loans hereunder at a
fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest
extent permitted by applicable Law.

     (iii) During the continuance of an Event of Default other than an Event of Default
under Section 9.01(f), the Borrower shall, upon the written request of the Required
Lenders, pay interest on the principal amount of all outstanding Loans hereunder at a
fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest
extent permitted by applicable Law.

48

 

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

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

     2.09 Fees.

     (a) Commitment Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the
account of each Revolving Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender which shall be dealt with as
provided in Section 2.14) in accordance with its Revolving Commitment Percentage, a
commitment fee equal to the Applicable Percentage of the actual daily amount by which the Aggregate
Revolving Committed Amount exceeds the sum of (i) the Outstanding Amount of Revolving Loans
plus (ii) the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations. The commitment fee shall accrue at
all times during the Commitment Period, including at any time during which one or more of the
conditions in Article V is not met, and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on
the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such
date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the Revolving Termination Date. The commitment fee
shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, and if there is any change in the Applicable Percentage
during any quarter, the actual daily amount shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable
Percentage separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Percentage was in
effect. For purposes hereof, Swingline Loans shall not be counted toward or be considered as usage
of the Aggregate Revolving Committed Amount.

     (b) Letter of Credit Fees.

     (i) Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent
for the account of each Revolving Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender which shall be
dealt with as provided in Section 2.14) in accordance with its Revolving Commitment
Percentage a Letter of Credit fee for each Letter of Credit equal to the Applicable
Percentage multiplied by the daily maximum amount available to be drawn under such
Letter of Credit (the “Letter of Credit Fees”). For purposes of computing the daily
amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit
shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.06. The Letter of Credit Fees
shall be computed on a quarterly basis in arrears, and shall be due and payable on the last
Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such
date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the L/C Expiration Date and
thereafter on demand. If there is any change in the Applicable Percentage during any
quarter, the daily amount available to be drawn under each Letter of Credit shall be
computed and multiplied by the Applicable Percentage separately for each period during such
quarter that such Applicable Percentage was in effect. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, during the continuance of an Event of Default under Section
9.01(f), all Letter of Credit Fees shall accrue at the Default Rate, and during the
continuance of an Event of Default other than an Event of Default under Section
9.01(f), then upon the request of the Required Revolving Lenders, all Letter of Credit
Fees shall accrue at the Default Rate.

     (ii) Fronting Fee and Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to L/C
Issuers. The Borrower shall pay directly to the each L/C Issuer for its own account a
fronting fee with respect to each Letter of Credit issued by it, at the rate per annum as
agreed in writing between the Borrower and such L/C Issuer, computed on the daily amount
available to be drawn under

49

 

such Letter of Credit on a quarterly basis in arrears. Such fronting fee shall be due
and payable on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December in respect
of the most recently-ended quarterly period (or portion thereof, in the case of the first
payment), commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of
Credit, on the L/C Expiration Date and thereafter on demand. For purposes of computing the
daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of
Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.06. In addition, the
Borrower shall pay directly to each L/C Issuer for its own account the customary issuance,
presentation, amendment and other processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of
such L/C Issuer relating to letters of credit issued by it as from time to time in effect.
Such customary fees and standard costs and charges are due and payable on demand and are
nonrefundable.

     (c) Other Fees.

     (i) The Borrower shall pay to the Joint Lead Arrangers and the Administrative Agent for
their own respective accounts fees in the amounts and at the times specified in the Fee
Letters. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any
reason whatsoever, except as otherwise expressly provided therein.

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

     2.10 Computation of Interest and Fees; Retroactive Adjustment of Applicable
Percentage.

     (a) All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans shall be made on the basis of a year of
three hundred sixty-five (365) or three hundred sixty-six (366) days, as the case may be, and
actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a
three hundred sixty (360)-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest,
as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a three hundred sixty-five (365)-day
year). Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not
accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid,
provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to
Section 2.11(a), bear interest for one day. Each determination by the Administrative Agent
of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent
manifest error.

     (b) If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the financial statements of
the Borrower (other than as a result of a change in GAAP (or the consistent application thereof) or
as a result of the re-classification of an item on the Borrower’s financial statements on account
of a change in GAAP), the Borrower or the Lenders determine that (i) the Consolidated Total
Leverage Ratio as calculated by the Borrower as of any applicable date was inaccurate and (ii) a
proper calculation of the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio would have resulted in higher pricing
for such period, the Borrower shall retroactively be obligated to pay to the Administrative Agent
for the account of the applicable Lenders and/or the applicable L/C Issuers, as the case may be,
promptly following written demand from the Administrative Agent and including the basis, in
reasonable detail, for such demand (or, after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an
order for relief with respect to any Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States,
automatically and without further action by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any L/C
Issuer), an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been
paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such

50

 

period. This paragraph shall not limit the rights of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or
the any L/C Issuer, as the case may be, under Section 2.03(c)(iii), 2.03(j),
2.08(b), 2.09 or under Article IX. The Borrower’s obligations under this
paragraph shall survive the Termination Date, but only if the events described in Section
11.05 occur.

     2.11 Payments Generally; Administrative Agent’s Clawback.

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

     (b) (i) Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Administrative Agent. Unless the
Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of
any Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans (or, in the case of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans,
prior to 12:00 noon on the date of such Borrowing) that such Lender will not make available
to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent
may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with
Section 2.02 (or, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, that such Lender
has made such share available in accordance with and at the time required by Section
2.02) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a
corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the
applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and
the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such
corresponding amount in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from
and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the
date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment to be made by
such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the
Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation,
plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the
Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing, and (B) in the case of a payment to
be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. If the Borrower
and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an
overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount
of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the
applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute
such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without
prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make
such payment to the Administrative Agent.

     (ii) Payments by Borrower; Presumptions by Administrative Agent. Unless the
Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which
any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or any L/C
Issuer hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may
assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may,
in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or any L/C Issuer, as the case
may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment,
then each of

51

 

the Lenders or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the
Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or such
L/C Issuer, in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and
including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to
the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by
the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank
compensation.

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

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

     (d) Obligation of the Lenders Several. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to
make Loans, to fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans (as to Revolving
Lenders) and to make payments pursuant to Section 11.04(c) are several and not joint. The
failure of any Lender to make any Loan, to fund any such participation or to make any payment under
Section 11.04(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its
corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure
of any other Lender to so make its Loan, to purchase its participation or to make its payment under
Section 11.04(c).

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

     (f) Allocation of Funds. If at any time insufficient funds are received by or are
available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, L/C Borrowings,
interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, toward costs
and expenses reimbursable by the Borrower pursuant to Section 11.04 (including all
reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of legal counsel as provided therein and amounts
payable under Article III) incurred by the Administrative Agent and each Lender,
(ii) second, toward repayment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the
parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such
parties, and (iii) third, toward repayment of principal and L/C Borrowings then due
hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal
and L/C Borrowings then due to such parties.

     2.12 Sharing of Payments By Lenders.

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

52

 

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

     (ii) the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (A) any payment
made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Credit
Agreement, (B) any amounts applied by the Swingline Lender to outstanding Swingline Loans,
(C) any amounts applied to L/C Obligations by any L/C Issuer or Swingline Loans by the
Swingline Lender, as appropriate, from Cash Collateral or other Adequate Assurance provided
under Section 2.14(c), or (D) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for
the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or subparticipations in L/C
Obligations or Swingline Loans to any assignee or participant.

Each Credit Party 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 such Credit Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect
to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Credit Party in the
amount of such participation to the extent a Lender would otherwise be entitled to do so hereunder.

     2.13 Evidence of Debt.

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

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

     2.14 Defaulting and Impacted Lenders.

     (a) Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in
the case of a Defaulting Lender:

     (i) any L/C Issuer may require the Borrower or Defaulting Lender to provide Adequate
Assurance, which may include cash collateral, for the Defaulting Lender’s share of the

53

 

L/C
Obligations as a condition to the issuance or extension of Letters of Credit, as referenced
in Section 2.03(a)(ii)(F) and as provided in Section 2.14(c) hereof;

     (ii) the Swingline Lender may require the Borrower or Defaulting Lender to provide
Adequate Assurance, which may include cash collateral, for the Defaulting Lender’s share of
the Swingline Loans as a condition to the making or extension of Swingline Loans, as
referenced in Section 2.04(a)and as provided in Section 2.14(c) hereof;

     (iii) the Defaulting Lender may be replaced as provided in Section 11.13;

     (iv) all payments of principal and interest owing to a Defaulting Lender will be paid
into an account or subaccount with the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the
Defaulting Lender (collectively, the “Defaulting Lender Account”) and held to secure
the Defaulting Lender’s obligations hereunder. Amounts held in the Defaulting Lender
Account will be used, first, to reimburse the Administrative Agent and Collateral
Agent for the Defaulting Lender’s share of fees and expenses to the extent then unpaid,
second, as cash collateral for the Defaulting Lender’s share of outstanding L/C
Obligations and Swingline Loans (allocated across such Obligations ratably), third,
to fund the Defaulting Lender’s share of Revolving Loan advances, fourth, as cash
collateral for the Defaulting Lender’s unfunded share the of Revolving Commitments. Any
amounts remaining in the Defaulting Lender Account after payment in full of the Defaulting
Lender’s obligations and termination of the commitments under this Credit Agreement and the
other Credit Documents will be paid over to the Defaulting Lender;

     (v) the Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to vote or receive a commitment fee,
facility fee or Letter of Credit fee hereunder for so long as it shall be a Defaulting
Lender (and the Borrower shall be entitled to retain such fees); and

     (vi) the Borrower may (in its discretion) apply all or any portion to be specified by
the Borrower of any optional reduction of unused Commitments under Section 2.07 to
the unused Commitments of any such Defaulting Lender as specified by the Borrower before
applying any remaining reduction to all Lenders in the manner otherwise specified in
Section 2.07.

     (b) Impacted Lenders. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in
the case of an Impacted Lender:

     (i) any L/C Issuer may require the Borrower or Impacted Lender to provide Adequate
Assurance, which may include cash collateral, for the Impacted Lender’s share of the L/C
Obligations as a condition to the issuance or extension of Letters of Credit, as referenced
in Section 2.03(a)(ii)(F) and as provided in Section 2.14(c) hereof;

     (ii) the Swingline Lender may require the Borrower or Impacted Lender to provide
Adequate Assurance, which may include cash collateral, for the Impacted Lender’s share of
the Swingline Loans as a condition to the making or extension of Swingline Loans, as
referenced in Section 2.04(a)and as provided in Section 2.14(c) hereof; and

     (iii) the Impacted Lender may be replaced as provided in Section 11.13; and

     (iv) the Borrower may (in its discretion) apply all or any portion to be specified by
the Borrower of any optional reduction of unused Revolving Commitments under Section
2.07 to
the unused Revolving Commitments of any such Impacted Lender as specified by the Borrower
before applying any remaining reduction to all Revolving Lenders in
the manner otherwise specified in Section 2.07.

54

 

     (c) Provision of Cash Collateral and Adequate Assurance. Where cash collateral or
other Adequate Assurance is provided in respect of the obligations of a Defaulting Lender or a
Impacted Lender, the cash collateral will be held in a blocked non-interest bearing deposit account
with the applicable L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender, as appropriate, to secure the obligations of
the Defaulting Lender or Impacted Lender to such L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender, as appropriate,
and the Borrower, the Defaulting Lender, the Impacted Lender or other party providing the cash
collateral or other Adequate Assurance pledges and grants a security interest therein to the
applicable L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender, as appropriate.

ARTICLE III

TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

     3.01 Taxes.

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

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

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

     (c) Tax Indemnifications. (i) Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) or
(b) above, the Borrower shall, and does hereby, indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and
each L/C Issuer, and shall make payment in respect thereof within 10 days after demand therefor,
for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other
Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) withheld or
deducted by the
Borrower or the Administrative Agent or paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or each
L/C Issuer, as the case may be, and any penalties, interest, both without duplication, and
reasonable expenses

55

 

arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified
Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental
Authority. The Borrower shall also, and does hereby, indemnify the Administrative Agent, and shall
make payment in respect thereof within 10 days after demand therefor, for any amount which a Lender
or an L/C Issuer for any reason fails to pay indefeasibly to the Administrative Agent as required
by clause (ii) of this subsection. A certificate as to the amount of any such payment or liability
delivered to the Borrower by a Lender or an L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent),
or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or an L/C Issuer, shall
be conclusive absent manifest error.

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

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

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

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

     (A) any Lender that is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section
7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent executed

56

 

originals of IRS Form W-9 (or any successor form) or such other documentation or information
prescribed by applicable Laws or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative
Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, to
determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information
reporting requirements; and

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

     (I) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN (or any successor form) claiming
eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a
party,

     (II) executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI (or any successor form),

     (III) executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY (or any successor form) and all
required supporting documentation,

     (IV) 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 the 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 executed
originals of IRS Form W-8BEN (or any successor form), or

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

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

     (f) Treatment of Certain Refunds. Unless required by applicable Laws, at no time
shall the Administrative Agent have any obligation to file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a
Lender or an L/C Issuer, or have any obligation to pay to any Lender or any L/C Issuer, any refund
of Taxes withheld or deducted from funds paid for the account of such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as
the case may be. If the
Administrative Agent, any Lender or any L/C Issuer determines, in its sole discretion, that it
has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with
respect to which the

57

 

Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay to
the Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or
additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section with respect to the Taxes or Other
Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative
Agent, such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any
interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided
that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such L/C Issuer,
agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges
imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such
L/C Issuer in the event the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such L/C Issuer is required to
repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This subsection shall not be construed to
require the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any L/C Issuer to make available its tax returns
(or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any
other Person.

     3.02 Illegality.

     If any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority
has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain
or fund Eurodollar Rate Loans, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurodollar
Base Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such
Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the London interbank market, then,
on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, from the date of
such notice to the date such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the
circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist (which such Lender shall do
promptly after such determination):

     (a) any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Eurodollar Rate Loans in Dollars
or to convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans in Dollars shall be suspended and the
Borrower shall, upon written demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative
Agent), at Borrower’s option either prepay such Eurodollar Loans or convert all Eurodollar
Rate Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans (with the Base Rate determined other than by
reference to the Eurodollar Rate), either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor,
if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans to such day, or
immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate
Loans; and

     (b) if such notice relates to the unlawfulness or asserted unlawfulness of charging
interest based on the Daily Floating Eurodollar Rate, then all Base Rate Loans shall accrue
interest at a Base Rate determined without reference to the Daily Floating Eurodollar Rate.

Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount
so prepaid or converted.

     3.03 Inability to Determine Rates.

     If the Required Lenders determine in good faith that for any reason in connection with any
request for a Eurodollar Rate Loan or a conversion to or continuation thereof that (a) Dollar
deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank eurodollar market for the
applicable amount and Interest Period of such Eurodollar Rate Loan, (b) adequate and reasonable
means do not exist for determining the Eurodollar Base Rate for any requested Interest Period with
respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan or in connection with the Daily Floating Eurodollar
Rate, or (c) the Eurodollar Base
Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan does
not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, the Administrative
Agent will

58

 

promptly notify the Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders
to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent (upon
the instruction of the Required Lenders, which instruction shall be given by the Required Lenders,
as soon as the circumstances described in this Section 3.03 no longer exist) revokes such
notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing
of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans or, failing that, will be deemed to have
converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified
therein.

     3.04 Increased Cost; Capital Adequacy.

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

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

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

     (iii) impose on any Lender or any L/C Issuer or the London interbank market any other
condition, cost or expense affecting this Credit Agreement or Eurodollar Rate Loans 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 Eurodollar Rate Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or
to increase the cost to such Lender or such L/C Issuer of participating in, issuing or maintaining
any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of
Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or such L/C
Issuer hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such
Lender or such L/C Issuer, the Borrower will pay to such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as the case may
be, in accordance with clause (c) below, such additional amount or amounts as will
compensate such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred
or reduction suffered.

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

59

 

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

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

     3.05 Compensation for Losses.

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

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

     (b) any failure by the Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a
Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on the date or in
the amount notified by the Borrower, except as provided in Section 3.02; or

     (c) any assignment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest
Period therefor as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 11.13;

including any loss of anticipated profits (other than loss of the Applicable Percentage) and any
loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain
such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained.

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

     3.06 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

     (a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation
under
Section 3.04, or the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender,
any L/C Issuer or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender or any L/C Issuer
pursuant to Section 3.01, or

60

 

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

     (b) Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section
3.04, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any
Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01 or if any
Lender gives a notice pursuant to Section 3.02, the Borrower may replace such Lender in
accordance with Section 11.13.

     3.07 Survival.

     All of the Borrower’s obligations under this Article III shall survive the Termination
Date and the resignation of the Administrative Agent.

ARTICLE IV

GUARANTY

     4.01 The Guaranty.

     (a) Each of the Guarantors hereby jointly and severally guarantees to the Administrative Agent
and each of the holders of the Obligations, as hereinafter provided, as primary obligor and not as
surety, the prompt payment of the Obligations (the “Guaranteed Obligations”) in full when
due (whether at stated maturity, as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration, as a mandatory cash
collateralization or otherwise) strictly in accordance with the terms thereof. The Guarantors
hereby further agree that if any of the Guaranteed Obligations are not paid in full when due
(whether at stated maturity, as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration, as a mandatory cash
collateralization or otherwise), the Guarantors will, jointly and severally, promptly pay the same,
without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment
or renewal of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due
(whether at extended maturity, as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration, as a mandatory cash
collateralization or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal.

     (b) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein, in any other of the Credit
Documents, Swap Contracts, Treasury Management Agreements or other documents relating to the
Obligations, the obligations of each Guarantor under this Credit Agreement and the other Credit
Documents shall be limited to an aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render
such obligations subject to avoidance under the Debtor Relief Laws or any comparable provisions of
any applicable state law.

61

 

     4.02 Obligations Unconditional.

     The obligations of the Guarantors under Section 4.01 are joint and several, absolute
and unconditional, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability
of any of the Credit Documents or other documents relating to the Obligations, or any substitution,
compromise, release, impairment or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the
Guaranteed Obligations, and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, irrespective of any
other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or
defense of a surety or guarantor (other than, where appropriate and subject to the provisions
hereof, a defense that the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid in full and the commitments
relating thereto shall have expired or been terminated) and , it being the intent of this
Section 4.02 that the obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall be absolute and
unconditional under any and all circumstances. Each Guarantor agrees that such Guarantor shall
have no right of subrogation, indemnity, reimbursement or contribution against the Borrower or any
other Guarantor for amounts paid under this Article IV until such time as the Termination
Date has occurred. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter
or impair the liability of any Guarantor hereunder, which shall remain absolute and unconditional
as described above:

     (a) at any time or from time to time, without notice to any Guarantor, the time for any
performance of or compliance with any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be extended, or such
performance or compliance shall be waived;

     (b) any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of any of the Credit Documents, or
other documents relating to the Guaranteed Obligations or any other agreement or instrument
referred to therein shall be done or omitted;

     (c) the maturity of any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the
Obligations shall be modified, supplemented or amended in any respect, or any right under any of
the Credit Documents or other documents relating to the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other
agreement or instrument referred to therein shall be waived or any other guarantee of any of the
Guaranteed Obligations or any security therefor shall be released, impaired or exchanged in whole
or in part or otherwise dealt with;

     (d) any Lien granted to, or in favor of, the Administrative Agent or any of the holders of the
Guaranteed Obligations as security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall fail to attach or be
perfected; or

     (e) any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be determined to be void or voidable (including,
without limitation, for the benefit of any creditor of any Guarantor) or shall be subordinated to
the claims of any Person (including, without limitation, any creditor of any Guarantor).

     With respect to its obligations hereunder, to the extent permitted by applicable law, each
Guarantor hereby expressly waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest notice of
acceptance of the guaranty given hereby and of extensions of credit that may constitute obligations
guaranteed hereby, notices of amendments, waivers and supplements to the Credit Documents and other
documents relating to the Guaranteed Obligations, or the compromise, release or exchange of
collateral or security, and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that the Administrative
Agent or any holder of the Guaranteed Obligations exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed
against any Person under any of the Credit Documents or any other documents relating to the
Guaranteed Obligations or any other agreement or instrument referred to therein, or against any
other Person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Obligations.

62

 

     4.03 Reinstatement.

     Neither the Guarantors’ obligations hereunder nor any remedy for the enforcement thereof shall
be impaired, modified, changed or released in any manner whatsoever by an impairment, modification,
change, release or limitation of the liability of the Borrower, by reason of the Borrower’s
bankruptcy or insolvency or by reason of the invalidity or unenforceability of all or any portion
of the Guaranteed Obligations. The obligations of the Guarantors under this Article IV
shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on
behalf of any Person in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise
restored by any holder of any of the Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings pursuant
to any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise.

     4.04 Certain Waivers.

     Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that (a) the guaranty given hereby may be enforced
without the necessity of resorting to or otherwise exhausting remedies in respect of any other
security or collateral interests, and without the necessity at any time of having to take recourse
against the Borrower hereunder or against any collateral securing the Guaranteed Obligations or
otherwise, (b) it will not assert any right to require the action first be taken against the
Borrower or any other Person (including any co-guarantor) or pursuit of any other remedy or
enforcement any other right and (c) nothing contained herein shall prevent or limit action being
taken against the Borrower hereunder, under the other Credit Documents or the other documents and
agreements relating to the Guaranteed Obligations or from foreclosing on any security or collateral
interests relating hereto or thereto, or from exercising any other rights or remedies available in
respect thereof, if neither the Borrower nor the Guarantors shall timely perform their obligations,
and the exercise of any such rights and completion of any such foreclosure proceedings shall not
constitute a discharge of the Guarantors’ obligations hereunder unless as a result thereof, the
Termination Date shall have occurred, it being the purpose and intent that the Guarantors’
obligations hereunder be absolute, irrevocable, independent and unconditional under all
circumstances.

     4.05 Remedies.

     The Guarantors agree that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, as between the Guarantors,
on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the holders of the Guaranteed Obligations, on the
other hand, the Guaranteed Obligations may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided
in Section 9.02 (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the
circumstances provided in Section 9.02) for purposes of Section 4.01,
notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or
preventing the Guaranteed Obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against any
other Person and that, in the event of such declaration (or the Guaranteed Obligations being deemed
to have become automatically due and payable), the Guaranteed Obligations (whether or not due and
payable by any other Person) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for purposes
of Section 4.01. The Guarantors acknowledge and agree that the Guaranteed Obligations are
secured in accordance with the terms of the Collateral Documents and that the holders of the
Guaranteed Obligations may exercise their remedies thereunder in accordance with the terms thereof.

     4.06 Rights of Contribution.

     The Guarantors hereby agree as among themselves that, in connection with payments made
hereunder, each Guarantor shall have a right of contribution from each other Guarantor in
accordance with applicable Law. Such contribution rights shall be subordinate and subject in right
of payment to the

63

 

Guaranteed Obligations until such time as the Termination Date has occurred, and
none of the Guarantors
shall exercise any such contribution rights until the Termination Date has occurred.

     4.07 Guaranty of Payment; Continuing Guaranty.

     The guarantee in this Article IV is a guaranty of payment and not of collection, and
is a continuing guarantee, and shall apply to all Guaranteed Obligations whenever arising.

each case, subject to matters which are privileged or otherwise subject to confidentiality
restrictions, all at the expense of the Borrower (but subject to the limitations set forth in
Section 11.04) and at such reasonable times and reasonable durational periods during normal
business hours and as often as may be reasonably desired, upon reasonable advance notice to the

or purchase relating thereto); and with respect to any such Subsidiary, cause the joinder of such
Subsidiary as a Guarantor pursuant to a Guarantor Joinder Agreement (or such other documentation in
form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent) within thirty (30) days (or
such later date as the Administrative Agent may agree to in its sole discretion) of such Subsidiary
becoming a Material Domestic Subsidiary (except with respect to Triumph Healthcare and its
Subsidiaries, which guaranties shall be provided on the Closing Date) accompanied by Organization
Documents and an opinion of counsel to such Credit Party, in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

     (b) Foreign Subsidiaries. Not form or acquire any Foreign Subsidiaries (other than in
Puerto Rico) without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders.

77

by becoming a Guarantor pursuant to the terms hereof.

     7.13 Pledge of Capital Stock.

     Pledge or cause to be pledged to the Collateral Agent to secure the Obligations (a) one
hundred percent (100%) of the issued and outstanding Capital Stock of each Material Domestic
Subsidiary within thirty (30) days (or such later date as the Administrative Agent may agree to in
its sole discretion) of its formation, acquisition or other receipt of such interests (except with
respect to Triumph Healthcare and its Subsidiaries, which pledges shall be provided on the Closing
Date to the extent otherwise required hereunder) and (b) sixty-five percent (65%) of the issued and
outstanding Capital Stock of each of First-Tier Foreign Subsidiary within sixty (60) days (or such
later date as the Administrative Agent may agree to in its sole discretion) of its formation,
acquisition or other receipt of such interests, in each case pursuant to the Pledge Agreement or
pledge joinder agreements, together with opinions of counsel and any filings and deliveries
reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent in connection therewith to perfect the security
interests therein, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
The requirement pursuant to clause (b) for the pledge of not more than sixty-five percent
(65%) of the Capital Stock in each First-Tier Foreign Subsidiary is intended to avoid treatment of
the undistributed earnings of a Foreign Subsidiary as a deemed dividend to its United States parent
for United States federal income tax purposes. Each Credit Party shall pledge or cause to be
pledged any greater or lesser percentage of its interest in a Foreign Subsidiary that (whether
pursuant to existing Law or as the result of changes to, or clarifications of, existing Law after
the date hereof) (i) would not reasonably be expected to cause the undistributed earnings of such
Foreign Subsidiary to be treated as a deemed dividend to the United States parent of such Foreign
Subsidiary, as determined for United States federal income tax purposes, and (ii) would not
otherwise reasonably be expected to result in material adverse tax consequences to such Foreign
Subsidiary or its United States parent. In no event will any Credit Party be required to pledge
ownership interests in joint ventures and non-Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries which by the terms of their
governing documents do not permit a pledge of the ownership interests without the consent of the
other owners, provided that such ownership interest shall be subject to the general grant of a
security interest regardless of any such prohibition unless the prohibition is not rendered
ineffective under the UCC (including the provisions of Sections 9-407 and 9-408 thereof) or other
applicable Law.

     7.14 Pledge of Other Property.

     Except for Subsidiaries not required to become a Guarantor pursuant to Section 7.12,
pledge and grant a security interest in substantially all personal property (including accounts,
contract rights, deposit accounts, chattel paper, insurance proceeds, inventory, investments and
financial assets, general intangibles, intellectual property, licenses, machinery and equipment)
located in the United States and which may be perfected by filing financing statements under the
UCC or by filing notices of security interests in respect of intellectual property with the United
States Copyright Office or the United States Patent and Trademark Office. The scope of the
personal property covered by this subsection will not include Excluded Property. In connection
with any grant of security interest under this subsection, the Credit Parties will deliver to the
Collateral Agent within thirty (30) days (or such later date as the Administrative Agent may agree
in its sole discretion) (i) a security agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, executed in multiple counterparts, and (ii) upon the
Collateral Agent’s reasonable written request, (a) notices of grant of security interest in respect
of intellectual property with the United States Copyright Office or the United States Patent and
Trademark Office reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, executed in multiple
counterparts, (b) such opinions of counsel as the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent may
deem

78

 

necessary or appropriate, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative
Agent and Collateral Agent, (c) evidence of casualty insurance (consistent with the requirements
for insurance hereunder) on personal property showing the Collateral Agent as loss payee (if
insurance is provided by a commercial insurer), and (d) such other filings and deliveries as may be
necessary or appropriate as
determined by the Collateral Agent in its reasonable discretion; provided
however, that the Credit Parties shall not be required to provide (or cause to be provided)
securities account control agreements, deposit account control agreements, leasehold mortgages,
collateral assignment of leases, landlord lien waivers, landlord consents, control of letter of
credit rights or any pledge of ownership interests in joint ventures and non-Wholly-Owned
Subsidiaries which by the terms of their governing documents do not permit a pledge of the
ownership interests without the consent of the other owners, provided that such ownership interest
shall be subject to the general grant of a security interest regardless of any such prohibition
unless the prohibition is not rendered ineffective under the UCC (including the provisions of
Sections 9-407 and 9-408 thereof) or other applicable Law.

     7.15 Maintenance of Debt Ratings.

     Use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain a Debt Rating with each of Moody’s and S&P as
long as the Term Loan B or any other term loan established hereunder remains outstanding.

by any amendments or refinancings that are otherwise permitted by the Credit Documents of the

restrictions than those prior to such amendment or refinancing and (vii) customary restrictions and
conditions contained in any agreement relating to the Disposition of any property or assets
permitted under Section 8.05 pending the consummation of such Disposition,

     (b) of any Domestic Subsidiary that is a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary to guarantee the Obligations,
or

     (c) of the Borrower or any Subsidiary to create, incur, assume or suffer to exist Liens on
property of such Person to secure the Obligations; provided, however, that this
clause (c) shall not prohibit (i) any negative pledge incurred or provided in favor of any
holder of Indebtedness permitted

89

 

under Section 8.03 solely to the extent any such negative
pledge relates to the property financed by or the subject of such Indebtedness, (ii) any Permitted
Lien or any document or instrument governing any Permitted Lien; provided that any such

subject to such Permitted Lien, (iii) customary restrictions and conditions contained in any

ARTICLE X

ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND COLLATERAL AGENT

     10.01 Appointment and Authorization of Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent.

     (a) Each of the Lenders and each of the L/C Issuers hereby irrevocably appoints Bank of
America to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Credit
Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to
exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof,
together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this
Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers
(other than the provisions of this Section 10.01 but only for the limited purpose of
acknowledging and consenting to the appointment of the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent
hereunder and Section 10.06), and neither the Borrower nor any other Credit Party shall
have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions.

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

94

 

     10.02 Rights as a Lender.

     The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers
in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the
Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated
or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent
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 Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if
such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to
the Lenders.

     10.03 Exculpatory Provisions.

     The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set
forth herein and in the other Credit 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 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 Credit 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 Credit 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 Credit Document or applicable law; and

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

     The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with
the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or 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 11.01 and 9.02) or (ii)
in the absence of its own gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct. The Administrative
Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such
Default is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, a Lender or an L/C Issuer.

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

95

 

satisfaction of any condition set forth in
Article V or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to
be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

     10.04 Reliance by Administrative Agent.

     The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for
relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other
writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other
distribution) believed by it in good faith 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 in good faith 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 an L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent
may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or such L/C Issuer unless the
Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or such L/C Issuer
prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Administrative
Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), 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.

     10.05 Delegation of Duties.

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

     10.06 Resignation of the Administrative Agent.

     Each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may at any time give notice of its
resignation to the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of
resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of the Borrower (which
consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), to appoint a successor, which shall not be a
Disqualified Institution and shall be a bank or other financial institution with an office in the
United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank or financial institution with an office in the
United States; provided, however, that the consent of the Borrower shall not be required if
an Event of Default under Section 9.01(a) or (f) shall have occurred and be
continuing. 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 or
Collateral Agent, as applicable, gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative
Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall on behalf of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers,
appoint a successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent with the consent of the Borrower
(which consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), as applicable, meeting the
qualifications set forth above; provided, however, that the consent of the Borrower shall
not be required if an Event of Default under Section 9.01(a) or (f) shall have
occurred and be continuing; provided further that if the Administrative Agent or
the Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying
Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in
accordance with such notice and (1) the retiring Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as
applicable,

96

 

shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other
Credit Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative
Agent or Collateral Agent, as
applicable, on behalf of the Lenders or the L/C Issuers under any of the Credit Documents, the
retiring Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall continue to hold such
collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as
applicable, is appointed) and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be
made by, to or through the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall instead
be made by or to each Lender and each L/C Issuer directly (and each Lender and L/C Issuer will
cooperate with the Borrower to enable the Borrower to take such actions), until such time as the
Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, as
provided for above in this Section. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as
Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, 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 or Collateral Agent, as applicable, and the retiring Administrative
Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable,
shall be discharged from all of its duties and
obligations hereunder or under the other Credit Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as
provided above in this Section) (other than its obligations under Section 11.07). The fees
payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to
its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the
retiring Administrative Agent’s or Collateral Agent’s resignation, as applicable, hereunder and
under the other Credit Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 11.04 shall
continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent or Collateral 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 or Collateral Agent, as applicable,
was acting as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable.

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

     10.07 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders.

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

     10.08 No Other Duties.

     Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Co-Syndication Agents,
Co-Documentation Agents, Joint Lead Arrangers, Joint Book Managers, Co-Documentation Agents or
other

97

 

similar titles listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or
responsibilities under this Credit Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents, except in its
capacity, as applicable, as the
Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, a Lender or an L/C Issuer hereunder.

     10.09 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim.

     In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial
proceeding relative to any Credit Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the
principal of any Loan or L/C Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by
declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any
demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or
otherwise:

     (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and
unpaid in respect of the Loans, L/C Obligations and all other Obligations (other than obligations
under Swap Contracts or Treasury Management Agreements to which the Administrative Agent is not a
party) that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable
in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and the Administrative Agent (including
any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the
L/C Issuers and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other
amounts due the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.09
and 11.04) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

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

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official
in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and each L/C Issuer to make
such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall
consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and the L/C Issuers, to pay to the
Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the
Administrative Agent under Sections 2.09 and 11.04.

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

     10.10 Collateral and Guaranty Matters.

     The Lenders and the L/C Issuers irrevocably authorize each of the Administrative Agent and the
Collateral Agent to (and the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent will, in any such case):

     (a) release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any
Credit Document (i) on the date upon which Aggregate Commitments are terminated and all Loan
Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations) are paid in full and all Letters of
Credit (other than Letters of Credit as to which Cash Collateral has been provided or Alternative
Arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the applicable L/C Issuers
shall have been made) have expired or terminated (such date, the “Termination Date”), (ii)
that is Disposed or to be Disposed as part of or in connection with any disposition permitted
hereunder or under any other Credit Document, or

98

 

(iii) subject to Section 11.01, if
approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders;

     (b) to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under
any Credit Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section
8.01(j); and

     (c) to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the guaranty provided hereunder if
such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder.

     Upon request by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent at any time, the Required
Lenders will confirm in writing the authority of the Collateral Agent to release or subordinate its
interest in particular property and of the Administrative Agent to release any Guarantor from its
obligations hereunder pursuant to this Section 10.10.

MISCELLANEOUS

     11.01 Amendments, Etc.

     (a) Except as expressly provided herein below, no amendment or waiver of any provision of this

and direction letter from the Required Lenders) and the Borrower or the applicable Credit Party, as
the case may be, and acknowledged by the Administrative Agent, and each such waiver or consent
shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given;
provided, however, that:

available portion of any Commitment of any Lender or any rescission of the

     (J) release all or substantially all of the Collateral, or release all or
substantially all of the Guarantors from their guaranty obligations, except as

hereunder; or

     (ii) unless also signed by the Required Revolving Lenders, no such amendment, waiver or

(ii) each Lender is entitled to vote as such Lender sees fit on any bankruptcy or insolvency
reorganization plan that affects the Loans, (iii) each Lender acknowledges that the provisions of

subsection (e) of Section 2.01, by (i) increasing the aggregate amount of
Commitments under any of the respective facilities and (ii) adding one or more additional borrowing

that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender or any L/C Issuer pursuant to
Article II if such Lender or the L/C

102

 

Issuer, as applicable, has notified the Administrative

MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR
FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY ANY AGENT PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE
CREDIT PARTY MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM. In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its

any Lender, any L/C Issuer or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses
of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of any Credit Party’s or the
Administrative Agent’s transmission of Credit Party Materials through the Internet, except to the
extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross
negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Agent Party; provided, however,
that in no event shall any Agent Party have any liability to any Credit Party, any Lender, any L/C
Issuer or any other Person for indirect, special, incidental, consequential or punitive damages (as
opposed to direct or actual damages).

Lender’s compliance procedures and applicable Law, including United States Federal
and state
securities Laws, to make reference to Credit Party Materials that are not made available through
the “Public Side Information” portion of the Platform and that may contain material non-public

     (e) Reliance by Administrative Agent, L/C Issuers and Lenders. The Administrative
Agent,
the L/C Issuers and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices (including
telephonic Loan Notices) given by or on behalf of the Borrower even if such notices were not made
in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of
notice specified herein. All telephonic notices to and other telephonic communications with the
Administrative Agent may be recorded by the Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto
hereby consents to such recording.

     11.03 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies; Enforcement.

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

     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Credit Document, the
authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Credit Documents against the
Credit Parties or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at
law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the
Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, in accordance with Section
9.02 for the benefit of all the Lenders and the L/C Issuers; provided, however,
that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) the Administrative Agent from exercising on its own
behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Administrative
Agent) hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, (b) any L/C Issuer or the Swingline Lender
from exercising the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as an L/C
Issuer or Swingline Lender, as the case may be) hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, (c)
any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 11.08 (subject to the
terms of Section 2.12), or (d) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and
filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Credit Party
under any Debtor Relief Law; and provided, further, that if at any time there is no
Person acting as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, then the
Required Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to
Section 9.02.

     11.04 Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.

     (a) Costs and Expenses. The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket

provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall
be consummated), and (ii) without duplication of Section 2.03, all reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any L/C Issuer in connection with the issuance, amendment,
renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender or
any L/C Issuer, including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel (but limited, in the case of
legal fees and expenses, to the reasonable fees and expenses of one outside law firm for the
Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as appropriate, and one outside law firm for the Lenders
taken as a whole, and, if necessary and appropriate, one local counsel and one regulatory counsel
for the

104

 

Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as appropriate, and the Lenders taken as a
whole in each appropriate jurisdiction, unless the interests of any Lender or group of Lenders are
distinctly or
disproportionately affected, then one additional counsel for each such Lender or group of
Lenders), in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights and interests (A) in
connection with this Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents, including its rights under
this Section, or (B) in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder,
including all such reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or
negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit.

     (b) Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative
Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), the Collateral Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), each Lender
and each L/C Issuer, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being
called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all
losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the reasonable fees and
expenses of counsel (but limited, in the case of legal fees and expenses, to the reasonable fees
and expenses of one outside law firm for the Administrative Agent and the Lenders taken as a whole,
and, if necessary and appropriate, one local counsel and one regulatory counsel for the
Administrative Agent taken as a whole in each appropriate jurisdiction, unless (x) the interests of
the Administrative Agent and the Lenders are sufficiently divergent, in which case one additional
counsel may be appointed and (y) if the interests of any Lender or group of Lenders are distinctly
or disproportionately affected, one additional counsel for each such Lender or group of Lenders),
in each case incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by
the Borrower or any other Credit Party arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i)
the execution or delivery of this Credit Agreement, any other Credit Document or any agreement or
instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their
respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated
hereby or thereby, or, in the case of the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof) and its
Related Parties only, the administration of this Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents
(including in respect of any matters addressed in Section 3.01), (ii) any Loan or Letter of
Credit or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by any L/C
Issuer to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit issued by it if the documents
presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of
Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any
property owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental
Liability related in any way to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or
prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing,
whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the
Borrower or any other Credit Party, 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, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross
negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of any such Indemnitee, in the case of the
Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), the Collateral Agent (and any sub-agent thereof)
and their Related Parties, and from gross negligence, bad faith, willful misconduct or material
breach of the Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any of the other Credit Documents, in the
case of the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and their Related Parties.

     (c) Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that the Borrower for any reason fails to
indefeasibly pay any amount required under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section to
be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), any L/C Issuer or any Related
Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or
any such sub-agent), such L/C Issuer or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s
Aggregate Commitment Percentage or, in the case of L/C Obligations, Revolving Commitment Percentage
(determined in each case as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity
payment is sought) of such unpaid amount,

105

 

provided that the unreimbursed expense or
indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by
or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent)
or such L/C Issuer in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the
foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or such L/C Issuer in
connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Lenders under this subsection (c)
are subject to the provisions of Section 2.11(d).

     (d) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law, no party hereto (or any Indemnitee) shall assert, and each party hereto (and each
Indemnitee) hereby waives, any claim against any other party hereto (or 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 Credit Agreement,
any other Credit 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 party hereto shall be liable for any damages arising from the unauthorized use by unintended
recipients of any information or other materials distributed to such unintended recipients by such
party through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in
connection with this Credit Agreement or the other Credit Documents or the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby other than for direct or actual damages resulting from the gross
negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of, such party as determined by a final and
nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

     (e) Payments. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than
fifteen (15) days after demand therefor.

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

     11.05 Payments Set Aside.

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

     11.06 Successors and Assigns.

     (a) Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Credit Agreement shall
be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and
assigns permitted hereby, except that neither any Borrower nor any other Credit Party may assign or
otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of
the Administrative

106

 

Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its
rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of
subsection (b) of this Section, (ii)
by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of subsection (d) of this
Section, or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions
of subsection (f) of this Section, (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any
party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Credit Agreement, expressed or implied,
shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective
successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in subsection
(d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of
each of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right,
remedy or claim under or by reason of this Credit Agreement.

     (b) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more
assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement (including all
or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans (including for purposes of this subsection
(b), participations in L/C Obligations and in Swingline Loans) at the time owing to it);
provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

     (i) Minimum Amounts.

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

     (B) in any case not described in subsection (b)(i)(A) of this Section,
the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans
outstanding thereunder) or, if the Commitment is not then in effect, the principal
outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such
assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to
such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is
specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less
than $5 million, in the case of any assignment of a Revolving Commitment, and $1
million, in the case of any assignment with respect to the Term Loan, unless each of
the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be
unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however, that
concurrent assignments to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent assignments
from members of an Assignee Group to a single Eligible Assignee (or to an assignee
and members of its Assignee Group) will be treated as a single Eligible Assignee for
purposes of determining whether such minimum amount has been met.

     (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 Credit Agreement with respect to the Loans or the Commitment assigned, except
that this clause (ii) shall not (A) apply to the Swingline Lender’s rights and
obligations in respect of Swingline Loans or (B) prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a
portion of its rights and obligations among its separate Revolving Commitment and Term Loan
Commitment on a non-pro rata basis;

107

 

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

     (A) the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld
or delayed) shall be required unless (1) an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing at the time of such assignment; provided that whether or not an
Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment, consent
of the Borrower, which shall be made in its sole discretion, shall be required with
respect to any assignment to a Disqualified Institution, (2) such assignment is to a
Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or (3) such assignment is made
pursuant to Section 11.06(f);

     (B) the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be
unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments in respect of
(1) any Term Loan Commitment or Revolving Commitment if such assignment is to a
Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with
respect to such Lender or (2) any Term Loan to a Person that is not a Lender, an
Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund;

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

     (D) the consent of the Swingline Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment in respect of a Revolving
Commitment.

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

     (v) No Assignment to Borrower. No such assignment shall be made to the
Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries without the consent of the
Required Lenders.

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

     (vii) No Assignment to Defaulting Lenders or Impacted Lenders. No assignment
may be made to a Defaulting Lender or an Impacted Lender without the prior written consent
of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers, the Swingline Lender and the Borrower.

     Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to
subsection (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each
Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Credit Agreement and,
to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and
obligations of a Lender under this Credit Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to
the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its
obligations under this Credit Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering
all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement, such Lender shall
cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits (and be subject to
the obligations) of Sections 3.01, 3.04, 3.05, 11.04 and
11.07 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such
assignment. Upon request,

108

 

the Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the
assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Credit
Agreement that does not comply with this
subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Credit Agreement as a sale by such Lender of
a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (d) of this
Section.

     (c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of
the Borrower, shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and
Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the
Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans and L/C Obligations owing to,
each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries
in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the
terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Credit Agreement, notwithstanding
notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any
Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

     (d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to,
any Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural
person, any Disqualified Institution, or unless otherwise consented to by the Required Lenders, the
Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in
all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Credit Agreement (including
all or a portion of its Commitments and/or the Loans (including such Lender’s participations in L/C
Obligations and/or Swingline Loans) owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s
obligations under this Credit Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain
solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii)
the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers shall continue to deal
solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under
this Credit 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 Credit Agreement and to approve any
amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Credit Agreement; provided that
such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the
Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to
Section 11.01 that affects such Participant. Subject to subsection (e) of this
Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of
Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and
had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section. To the
extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section
11.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to
Section 2.12 as though it were a Lender.

     (e) Limitations upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to
receive any greater payment under Section 3.01 or 3.04 than the applicable Lender
would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant
unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written
consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to
the benefits of Section 3.01, unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to
such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with
Section 3.01(e) as though it were a Lender.

     (f) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of the Borrower,
pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Credit
Agreement (including under its Note(s), if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any
pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such
pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute
any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

109

 

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

     11.07 Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality.

     Each of the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each L/C Issuer agrees to maintain the
confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a)
to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers,
employees, agents, trustees, advisors and representatives (it being understood that the Persons to
whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and
instructed to keep such Information confidential and, in the case of its Affiliates, the
Administrative Agent, relevant Lender or L/C Issuer, as applicable, shall be responsible for its
Affiliates’ compliance under this Section 11.07), (b) to the extent requested by any
regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory
authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required
by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other
party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other
Credit Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Credit Agreement or any other Credit
Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement
containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or
Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations
under this Credit Agreement or any Eligible Assignee invited to be a Lender pursuant to Section
2.01(e) or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or
derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations, (g) with the consent of the
Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a
result of a breach of this Section or (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any
Lender, any L/C Issuer or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a
source other than the Borrower that is not known to be bound by confidentiality obligations to the
Borrower and other Credit Parties.

110

 

     For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the
Borrower or any Subsidiary relating to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or any of their respective
businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any
Lender or any L/C Issuer on a nonconfidential basis from a source not known by the Administrative
Agent, relevant Lender or L/C Issuer to be bound by confidentiality obligations to the Borrower and
other Credit Parties prior to disclosure by the Borrower or any Subsidiary, provided that,
in the case of information received from the Borrower or any Subsidiary after the date hereof, such
information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to
maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have
complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to
maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own
confidential information.

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

     11.08 Right of Setoff.

     If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, each L/C Issuer and
each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or
special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other
obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender, each L/C Issuer or any such
Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or any other Credit Party against any
and all of the obligations of such Borrower or such Credit Party now or hereafter existing under
this Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document to such Lender or such L/C Issuer, irrespective
of whether or not such Lender or such L/C Issuer shall have made any demand under this Credit
Agreement or any other Credit Document and although such obligations of such Borrower or such
Credit Party may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender or
such L/C Issuer different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such
indebtedness. The rights of each Lender, such L/C Issuer and their respective Affiliates under
this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that
such Lender, such L/C Issuer or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender and such L/C
Issuer agrees to notify the Borrower 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.

     11.09 Interest Rate Limitation.

     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Credit Document, the interest paid
or agreed to be paid under the Credit Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious
interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Administrative Agent or
any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest
shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to
the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the
Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted
by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or
premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary

111

 

prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c)
amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest
throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

     11.10 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness.

     This Credit Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in
different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken
together shall constitute a single contract. This Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents
constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and
supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the
subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 5.01, this Credit Agreement shall
become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the
Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the
signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature
page of this Credit Agreement by telecopy or other electronic imaging means (including pdf) shall
be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Credit Agreement.

     11.11 Survival of Representations and Warranties.

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

     11.12 Severability.

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

     11.13 Replacement of Lenders.

     If (a) any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, (b) any Borrower is
required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account
of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, (c) a Lender (a “Non-Consenting Lender”)
does not consent (including, without limitation, by a failure to respond in writing to a proposed
amendment by the date and time specified by the Administrative Agent) to a proposed amendment,
consent, change, waiver, discharge or termination with respect to any Credit Document that has been
approved by Required Lenders or Lenders of a particular class of loans under Section 11.01
but which requires unanimous consent of all Lenders, all affected Lenders or all Lenders of a
particular class of loans, as applicable, or (d) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or an Impacted
Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the
Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance
with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section
11.06), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement and the
related

112

 

Credit 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 Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee
specified in Section 11.06(b)(iv) unless waived by the Administrative Agent in its
discretion;

     (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding
principal of its Loans and, with respect to Revolving Lenders, L/C Advances, accrued
interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the
other Credit Documents (including any amounts under Section 3.05) from the assignee
(to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower
(in the case of all other amounts);

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

     (iv) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws; and

     (v) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a Non-Consenting Lender’s failure
to consent to a proposed amendment, consent change, waiver, discharge or termination with
respect to any Credit Document, the applicable replacement bank or financial institution
consents to the proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination;

     provided that the failure by any Lender being replaced hereunder to execute and
deliver an Assignment and Assumption shall not impair the validity of the removal of such Lender
and the mandatory assignment of such Lender’s Commitments and outstanding Loans and, with respect
to the Revolving Lenders, participations in L/C Obligations pursuant to this Section 11.13
shall nevertheless be effective without the execution by such Lender of an Assignment and
Assumption.

Each Lender hereby agrees that in the event it is a Defaulting Lender or an Impacted Lender, it
shall cooperate with and provide assistance to the Borrower as reasonably requested by Borrower in
connection with its replacement pursuant to this Section 11.13. A Lender shall not be
required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by
such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and
delegation cease to apply.

hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original
and all of which when taken together shall constitute one contract. Delivery of an executed
