Exhibit 10.1

AGREEMENT

     THIS AGREEMENT made this the 30th day of June, 2008 by and between DRI CORPORATION
(“DRI”) and JOHN D. HIGGINS (“Higgins”).

     WHEREAS, DRI and Higgins entered into a Loan Agreement (“Agreement”) and executed an 8%
Convertible Debenture (“Debenture”) on August 26, 2002; and

     WHEREAS, Section 6(b)(i) of that Debenture has a provision entitled “Adjustment for Issuance
of Shares at Less Than the Conversion Price” (“Adjustment Provisions”); and

     WHEREAS, the parties have agreed to two prior adjustments under the Adjustment Price such that
the conversion price is currently $1.21; and

     WHEREAS, the parties desire to agree to a further adjustment contingent and conditioned on a
new senior lending agreement being closed as well as the conversion price being reduced to $1.10.

     NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows for and in the considerations cited herein.

     1. The conversion price on the Debenture shall be $1.10, which would result in Higgins being
issued 227,273 common shares (“Shares”).

     2. Higgins shall convert the Debenture into shares of common stock immediately with the
closing of a new senior financing agreement, anticipated to be on or before June 30, 2008. All
accrued, but unpaid, interest ($1,639.34) shall be paid through the date of conversion. As a
result of the conversion, all priorities and securities under the Debenture shall terminate and be
released. Should said financing fail, the conversion price shall remain $1.21.

     3. This Agreement shall be governed by the Doctrine of Specific Performance. The parties shall
sign such documents to effect the above transaction as reasonably requested.

     This the 30th day of June, 2008.

or agreements to which Agent is a party, including references to any of the Other Documents, shall
include any and all modifications or amendments thereto and any and all extensions or renewals
thereof. All references herein to the time of day shall mean the time in New York, New York.

first-in, first-out basis. Whenever the words “including” or “include” shall be used, such words
shall be understood to mean “including, without limitation” or “include, without limitation”. A
Default or Event of Default shall be deemed to exist at all times during the period commencing on
the date that such Default or Event of Default occurs to the date on which such Default or Event of
Default is waived in writing pursuant to this Agreement or, in the case of a Default, is cured
within any period of cure expressly provided for in this Agreement; and an Event of Default shall
“continue” or be “continuing” until such Event of Default has been waived in writing by the
Required Lenders. Any Lien referred to in this Agreement or any of the Other Documents as having

II. ADVANCES, PAYMENTS.

     2.1. Revolving Advances.

          (a) Amount of Revolving Advances. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in
this Agreement, including Section 2.1(b), each Lender, severally and not jointly, will make
Revolving Advances to Borrowers in aggregate amounts outstanding at any time equal to such Lender’s
Commitment Percentage of the lesser of (x) the Maximum Revolving Advance Amount less the
aggregate Maximum Undrawn Amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit, or (y) an amount equal to
the sum of:

               (i) up to 85%, subject to the provisions of Section 2.1(b) hereof (“Receivables Advance
Rate”), of Eligible Receivables, plus

               (ii) up to the lesser of (A) 85% of the appraised net orderly liquidation value of Eligible
Inventory (as evidenced by an Inventory appraisal satisfactory to Agent in its sole discretion
exercised in good faith) or (B) $750,000 in the aggregate at any one time, minus

               (iii) the aggregate Maximum Undrawn Amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit, minus

               (iv) such reserves as Agent may reasonably deem proper and necessary from time to time.

     The amount derived from the sum of (x) Sections 2.1(a)(y)(i) and (ii) minus (y) Section 2.1
(a)(y)(iv) at any time and from time to time shall be referred to as the “Formula Amount”. The
Revolving Advances shall be evidenced by one or more secured promissory notes (collectively, the
“Revolving Credit Note”) substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1(a).

          (b) Discretionary Rights. The Advance Rates may be increased or decreased by Agent at
any time and from time to time in the exercise of its reasonable discretion. Each Borrower
consents to any such increases or decreases and acknowledges that decreasing the Advance Rates or
increasing or imposing reserves may limit or restrict Advances requested by Borrowing Agent. The
rights of Agent under this subsection are subject to the provisions of Section 16.2(b).

     2.2. Procedure for Revolving Advances Borrowing.

22

 

          (a) Borrowing Agent on behalf of any Borrower may notify Agent prior to 10:00 a.m. on a
Business Day of a Borrower’s request to incur, on that day, a Revolving Advance hereunder. Should
any amount required to be paid as interest hereunder, or as fees or other charges under this
Agreement or any other agreement with Agent or Lenders, or with respect to any other Obligation,
become due, same shall be deemed a request for a Revolving Advance as of the date such payment is
due, in the amount required to pay in full such interest, fee, charge or Obligation under this
Agreement or any other agreement with Agent or Lenders, and such request shall be irrevocable.

          (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (a) above, in the event any Borrower desires
to obtain a Eurodollar Rate Loan, Borrowing Agent shall give Agent written notice by no later than
10:00 a.m. on the day which is three (3) Business Days prior to the date such Eurodollar Rate Loan
is to be borrowed, specifying (i) the date of the proposed borrowing (which shall be a Business
Day), (ii) the type of borrowing and the amount on the date of such Advance to be borrowed, which
amount shall be a minimum of $100,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof, and
(iii) the duration of the first Interest Period therefor. Interest Periods for Eurodollar Rate
Loans shall be for one, two or three months; provided, if an Interest Period would end on a day
that is not a Business Day, it shall end on the next succeeding Business Day unless such day falls
in the next succeeding calendar month in which case the Interest Period shall end on the next
preceding Business Day. No Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be made available to any Borrower during the
continuance of a Default or an Event of Default. After giving effect to each requested Eurodollar
Rate Loan, including those which are converted from a Domestic Rate Loan under Section 2.2(d),
there shall not be outstanding more than three (3) Eurodollar Rate Loans, in the aggregate.

          (c) Each Interest Period of a Eurodollar Rate Loan shall commence on the date such Eurodollar
Rate Loan is made and shall end on such date as Borrowing Agent may elect as set forth in
subsection (b)(iii) above provided that the exact length of each Interest Period shall be
determined in accordance with the practice of the interbank market for offshore Dollar deposits and
no Interest Period shall end after the last day of the Term.

          Borrowing Agent shall elect the initial Interest Period applicable to a Eurodollar Rate Loan
by its notice of borrowing given to Agent pursuant to Section 2.2(b) or by its notice of conversion
given to Agent pursuant to Section 2.2(d), as the case may be. Borrowing Agent shall elect the
duration of each succeeding Interest Period by giving irrevocable written notice to Agent of such
duration not later than 10:00 a.m. on the day which is three (3) Business Days prior to the last
day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Loan. If Agent does not
receive timely notice of the Interest Period elected by Borrowing Agent, Borrowing Agent shall be
deemed to have elected to convert to a Domestic Rate Loan subject to Section 2.2(d) hereinbelow.

          (d) Provided that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Borrowing Agent
may, on the last Business Day of the then current Interest Period applicable to any outstanding
Eurodollar Rate Loan, or on any Business Day with respect to Domestic Rate Loans, convert any such
loan into a loan of another type in the same aggregate principal amount provided that any
conversion of a Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be made only on the last Business Day of the then
current Interest Period applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Loan. If Borrowing

23

 

Agent desires to convert a loan, Borrowing Agent shall give Agent written notice by no later
than 10:00 a.m. (i) on the day which is three (3) Business Days’ prior to the date on which such
conversion is to occur with respect to a conversion from a Domestic Rate Loan to a Eurodollar Rate
Loan, or (ii) on the day which is one (1) Business Day prior to the date on which such conversion
is to occur with respect to a conversion from a Eurodollar Rate Loan to a Domestic Rate Loan,
specifying, in each case, the date of such conversion, the loans to be converted and if the
conversion is from a Domestic Rate Loan to any other type of loan, the duration of the first
Interest Period therefor.

          (e) At its option and upon written notice given prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York time) at least
three (3) Business Days’ prior to the date of such prepayment, any Borrower may prepay the
Eurodollar Rate Loans in whole at any time or in part from time to time with accrued interest on
the principal being prepaid to the date of such repayment. Such Borrower shall specify the date of
prepayment of Advances which are Eurodollar Rate Loans and the amount of such prepayment. In the
event that any prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan is required or permitted on a date other than
the last Business Day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, such Borrower shall
indemnify Agent and Lenders therefor in accordance with Section 2.2(f) hereof.

          (f) Each Borrower shall indemnify Agent and Lenders and hold Agent and Lenders harmless from
and against any and all losses or expenses that Agent and Lenders may sustain or incur as a
consequence of any prepayment, conversion of or any default by any Borrower in the payment of the
principal of or interest on any Eurodollar Rate Loan or failure by any Borrower to complete a
borrowing of, a prepayment of or conversion of or to a Eurodollar Rate Loan after notice thereof
has been given, including, but not limited to, any interest payable by Agent or Lenders to lenders
of funds obtained by it in order to make or maintain its Eurodollar Rate Loans hereunder. A
certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to the foregoing sentence submitted by
Agent or any Lender to Borrowing Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

          (g) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if any Applicable Law, or any change therein
or in the interpretation or application thereof, shall make it unlawful for any Lender (for
purposes of this subsection (g), the term “Lender” shall include any Lender and the office or
branch where any Lender or any corporation or bank controlling such Lender makes or maintains any
Eurodollar Rate Loans) to make or maintain its Eurodollar Rate Loans, the obligation of Lenders to
make Eurodollar Rate Loans hereunder shall forthwith be cancelled and Borrowers shall, if any
affected Eurodollar Rate Loans are then outstanding, promptly upon request from Agent, either pay
all such affected Eurodollar Rate Loans or convert such affected Eurodollar Rate Loans into loans
of another type. If any such payment or conversion of any Eurodollar Rate Loan is made on a day
that is not the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Loan, Borrowers
shall pay Agent, upon Agent’s request, such amount or amounts as may be necessary to compensate
Lenders for any loss or expense sustained or incurred by Lenders in respect of such Eurodollar Rate
Loan as a result of such payment or conversion, including (but not limited to) any interest or
other amounts payable by Lenders to lenders of funds obtained by Lenders in order to make or
maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loan. A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to
the foregoing sentence submitted by Lenders to Borrowing Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest
error.

24

 

     2.3. Disbursement of Advance Proceeds. All Advances shall be disbursed from whichever
office or other place Agent may designate from time to time and, together with any and all other
Obligations of Borrowers to Agent or Lenders, shall be charged to Borrowers’ Account on Agent’s
books. During the Term, Borrowers may use the Revolving Advances by borrowing, prepaying and
reborrowing, all in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. The proceeds of each
Revolving Advance requested by Borrowing Agent on behalf of any Borrower or deemed to have been
requested by any Borrower under Section 2.2(a) hereof shall, with respect to requested Revolving
Advances to the extent Lenders make such Revolving Advances, be made available to the applicable
Borrower on the day so requested by way of credit to such Borrower’s operating account at PNC, or
such other bank as Borrowing Agent may designate following notification to Agent, in immediately
available federal funds or other immediately available funds or, with respect to Revolving Advances
deemed to have been requested by any Borrower, be disbursed to Agent to be applied to the
outstanding Obligations giving rise to such deemed request.

     2.4. [Reserved].

     2.5. Maximum Advances. The aggregate balance of Revolving Advances outstanding at any
time shall not exceed the lesser of (a) the Maximum Revolving Advance Amount or (b) the Formula
Amount less, in each case, the aggregate Maximum Undrawn Amount of all issued and outstanding
Letters of Credit.

     2.6. Repayment of Advances.

          (a) The Revolving Advances shall be due and payable in full on the last day of the Term
subject to earlier prepayment as herein provided.

          (b) Each Borrower recognizes that the amounts evidenced by checks, notes, drafts or any other
items of payment relating to and/or proceeds of Collateral may not be collectible by Agent on the
date received. In consideration of Agent’s agreement to conditionally credit Borrowers’ Account as
of the Business Day on which Agent receives those items of payment, each Borrower agrees that, in
computing the charges under this Agreement, all items of payment shall be deemed applied by Agent
on account of the Obligations one (1) Business Day after (i) the Business Day Agent receives such
payments via wire transfer or electronic depository check or (ii) in the case of payments received
by Agent in any other form, the Business Day such payment constitutes good funds in Agent’s
account. Agent is not, however, required to credit Borrowers’ Account for the amount of any item
of payment which is unsatisfactory to Agent and Agent may charge Borrowers’ Account for the amount
of any item of payment which is returned to Agent unpaid.

          (c) All payments of principal, interest and other amounts payable hereunder, or under any of
the Other Documents shall be made to Agent at the Payment Office not later than 1:00 P.M. (New York
time) on the due date therefor in lawful money of the United States of America in federal funds or
other funds immediately available to Agent. Agent shall have the right to effectuate payment on
any and all Obligations due and owing hereunder by charging Borrowers’ Account or by making
Advances as provided in Section 2.2 hereof.

25

 

          (d) Borrowers shall pay principal, interest, and all other amounts payable hereunder, or under
any related agreement, without any deduction whatsoever, including, but not limited to, any
deduction for any setoff or counterclaim.

     2.7. Repayment of Excess Advances. The aggregate balance of Advances outstanding at
any time in excess of the maximum amount of Advances permitted hereunder shall be immediately due
and payable without the necessity of any demand, at the Payment Office, whether or not a Default or
Event of Default has occurred.

     2.8. Statement of Account. Agent shall maintain, in accordance with its customary
procedures, a loan account (“Borrowers’ Account”) in the name of Borrowers in which shall be
recorded the date and amount of each Advance made by Agent and the date and amount of each payment
in respect thereof; provided, however, the failure by Agent to record the date and amount of any
Advance shall not adversely affect Agent or any Lender. Each month, Agent shall send to Borrowing
Agent a statement showing the accounting for the Advances made, payments made or credited in
respect thereof, and other transactions between Agent and Borrowers during such month. The monthly
statements shall be deemed correct and binding upon Borrowers in the absence of manifest error and
shall constitute an account stated between Lenders and Borrowers unless Agent receives a written
statement of Borrowers’ specific exceptions thereto within thirty (30) days after such statement is
received by Borrowing Agent. The records of Agent with respect to the loan account shall be
conclusive evidence absent manifest error of the amounts of Advances and other charges thereto and
of payments applicable thereto.

     2.9. Letters of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Agent shall (a)
issue or cause the issuance of standby and/or trade Letters of Credit (“Letters of Credit”) for the
account of any Borrower; provided, however, that Agent will not be required to issue or cause to be
issued any Letters of Credit to the extent that the issuance thereof would then cause the sum of
(i) the outstanding Revolving Advances plus (ii) the Maximum Undrawn Amount of all outstanding
Letters of Credit to exceed the lesser of (x) the Maximum Revolving Advance Amount or (y) the
Formula Amount. The Maximum Undrawn Amount of outstanding Letters of Credit shall not exceed in
the aggregate at any time the Letter of Credit Sublimit. All disbursements or payments related to
Letters of Credit shall be deemed to be Domestic Rate Loans consisting of Revolving Advances and
shall bear interest at the Revolving Interest Rate for Domestic Rate Loans; Letters of Credit that
have not been drawn upon shall not bear interest.

     2.10. Issuance of Letters of Credit.

          (a) Borrowing Agent, on behalf of Borrowers, may request Agent to issue or cause the issuance
of a Letter of Credit by delivering to Agent at the Payment Office, prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York
time), at least five (5) Business Days’ prior to the proposed date of issuance, Agent’s form of
Letter of Credit Application (the “Letter of Credit Application”) completed to the satisfaction of
Agent; and, such other certificates, documents and other papers and information as Agent may
reasonably request. Borrowing Agent, on behalf of Borrowers, also has the right to give
instructions and make agreements with respect to any application, any applicable letter of credit
and security agreement, any applicable letter of credit reimbursement agreement and/or any other
applicable agreement, any letter of credit and the disposition of

26

 

documents, disposition of any unutilized funds, and to agree with Agent upon any amendment,
extension or renewal of any Letter of Credit.

          (b) Each Letter of Credit shall, among other things, (i) provide for the payment of sight
drafts, other written demands for payment, or acceptances of usance drafts when presented for honor
thereunder in accordance with the terms thereof and when accompanied by the documents described
therein and (ii) have an expiry date not later than twenty-four (24) months after such Letter of
Credit’s date of issuance and in no event later than the last day of the Term. Each standby Letter
of Credit shall be subject either to the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits (1993
Revision), International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 600, and any amendments or revision
thereof adhered to by the Issuer (“UCP 600”) or the International Standby Practices
(ISP98-International Chamber of Commerce Publication Number 600) (the “ISP98 Rules”), as determined
by Agent, and each trade Letter of Credit shall be subject to UCP 600.

          (c) Agent shall use its reasonable efforts to notify Lenders of the request by Borrowing Agent
for a Letter of Credit hereunder.

     2.11. Requirements For Issuance of Letters of Credit.

          (a) Borrowing Agent shall authorize and direct any Issuer to name the applicable Borrower as
the “Applicant” or “Account Party” of each Letter of Credit. If Agent is not the Issuer of any
Letter of Credit, Borrowing Agent shall authorize and direct the Issuer to deliver to Agent all
instruments, documents, and other writings and property received by the Issuer pursuant to the
Letter of Credit and to accept and rely upon Agent’s instructions and agreements with respect to
all matters arising in connection with the Letter of Credit or the application therefor.

          (b) In connection with all Letters of Credit issued or caused to be issued by Agent under this
Agreement, each Borrower hereby appoints Agent, or its designee, as its attorney, with full power
and authority if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (i) to sign and/or
endorse such Borrower’s name upon any warehouse or other receipts, letter of credit applications
and acceptances, (ii) to sign such Borrower’s name on bills of lading; (iii) to clear Inventory
through the United States of America Customs Department (“Customs”) in the name of such Borrower or
Agent or Agent’s designee, and to sign and deliver to Customs officials powers of attorney in the
name of such Borrower for such purpose; and (iv) to complete in such Borrower’s name or Agent’s, or
in the name of Agent’s designee, any order, sale or transaction, obtain the necessary documents in
connection therewith, and collect the proceeds thereof. Neither Agent nor its attorneys will be
liable for any acts or omissions nor for any error of judgment or mistakes of fact or law, except
for Agent’s or its attorney’s willful misconduct. This power, being coupled with an interest, is
irrevocable as long as any Letters of Credit remain outstanding.

     2.12. Disbursements, Reimbursement.

          (a) Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to,
and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from Agent a

27

 

participation in such Letter of Credit and each drawing thereunder in an amount equal to such
Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Maximum Face Amount of such Letter of Credit and the amount
of such drawing, respectively.

          (b) In the event of any request for a drawing under a Letter of Credit by the beneficiary or
transferee thereof, Agent will promptly notify Borrowing Agent. Provided that Borrowing Agent
shall have received such notice, the Borrowers shall reimburse (such obligation to reimburse Agent
shall sometimes be referred to as a “Reimbursement Obligation”) Agent prior to 12:00 Noon, New York
time on each date that an amount is paid by Agent under any Letter of Credit (each such date, a
“Drawing Date”) in an amount equal to the amount so paid by Agent. In the event Borrowers fail to
reimburse Agent for the full amount of any drawing under any Letter of Credit by 12:00 Noon, New
York time, on the Drawing Date, Agent will promptly notify each Lender thereof, and Borrowers shall
be deemed to have requested that a Domestic Rate Loan be made by the Lenders to be disbursed on the
Drawing Date under such Letter of Credit, subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the
lesser of Maximum Revolving Advance Amount or the Formula Amount and subject to Section 8.2 hereof.
Any notice given by Agent pursuant to this Section 2.12(b) may be oral if immediately confirmed in
writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the
conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

          (c) Each Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.12(b) make available to Agent an
amount in immediately available funds equal to its Commitment Percentage of the amount of the
drawing, whereupon the participating Lenders shall (subject to Section 2.12(d)) each be deemed to
have made a Domestic Rate Loan to Borrowers in that amount. If any Lender so notified fails to
make available to Agent the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such amount by no
later than 2:00 p.m., New York time on the Drawing Date, then interest shall accrue on such
Lender’s obligation to make such payment, from the Drawing Date to the date on which such Lender
makes such payment (i) at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate during the
first three days following the Drawing Date and (ii) at a rate per annum equal to the rate
applicable to Revolving Advances maintained as Domestic Rate Loans on and after the fourth day
following the Drawing Date. Agent will promptly give notice of the occurrence of the Drawing Date,
but failure of Agent to give any such notice on the Drawing Date or in sufficient time to enable
any Lender to effect such payment on such date shall not relieve such Lender from its obligation
under this Section 2.12(c), provided that such Lender shall not be obligated to pay interest as
provided in Section 2.12(c) (i) and (ii) until and commencing from the date of receipt of notice
from Agent of a drawing.

          (d) With respect to any unreimbursed drawing that is not converted into a Revolving Advance
maintained as a Domestic Rate Loan to Borrowers in whole or in part as contemplated by Section
2.12(b), because of Borrowers’ failure to satisfy the conditions set forth in Section 8.2 (other
than any notice requirements) or for any other reason, Borrowers shall be deemed to have incurred
from Agent a borrowing (each a “Letter of Credit Borrowing”) in the amount of such drawing. Such
Letter of Credit Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall
bear interest at the rate per annum applicable to a Revolving Advance maintained as a Domestic Rate
Loan. Each Lender’s payment to Agent pursuant to Section 2.12(c) shall be deemed to be a payment
in respect of its participation in such Letter of

28

 

Credit Borrowing and shall constitute a “Participation Advance” from such Lender in
satisfaction of its Participation Commitment under this Section 2.12.

          (e) Each Lender’s Participation Commitment shall continue until the last to occur of any of
the following events: (x) Agent ceases to be obligated to issue or cause to be issued Letters of
Credit hereunder; (y) no Letter of Credit issued or created hereunder remains outstanding and
uncancelled and (z) all Persons (other than the Borrowers) have been fully reimbursed for all
payments made under or relating to Letters of Credit.

     2.13. Repayment of Participation Advances.

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

          (b) If Agent is required at any time to return to any Borrower, or to a trustee, receiver,
liquidator, custodian, or any official in any insolvency proceeding, any portion of the payments
made by Borrowers to Agent pursuant to Section 2.13(a) in reimbursement of a payment made under the
Letter of Credit or interest or fee thereon, each Lender shall, on demand of Agent, forthwith
return to Agent the amount of its Commitment Percentage of any amounts so returned by Agent plus
interest at the Federal Funds Effective Rate.

     2.14. Documentation. Each Borrower agrees to be bound by the terms of the Letter of
Credit Application and by Agent’s interpretations of any Letter of Credit issued on behalf of such
Borrower and by Agent’s written regulations and customary practices relating to letters of credit,
though Agent’s interpretations may be different from such Borrower’s own. In the event of a
conflict between the Letter of Credit Application and this Agreement, this Agreement shall govern.
It is understood and agreed that, except in the case of gross negligence or willful misconduct (as
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment), Agent shall
not be liable for any error, negligence and/or mistakes, whether of omission or commission, in
following the Borrowing Agent’s or any Borrower’s instructions or those contained in the Letters of
Credit or any modifications, amendments or supplements thereto.

     2.15. Determination to Honor Drawing Request. In determining whether to honor any
request for drawing under any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof, Agent shall be
responsible only to determine that the documents and certificates required to be delivered under
such Letter of Credit have been delivered and that they comply on their face with the requirements
of such Letter of Credit and that any other drawing condition appearing on the face of such Letter
of Credit has been satisfied in the manner so set forth.

29

 

     2.16. Nature of Participation and Reimbursement Obligations. Each Lender’s obligation
in accordance with this Agreement to make the Revolving Advances or Participation Advances as a
result of a drawing under a Letter of Credit, and the obligations of Borrowers to reimburse Agent
upon a draw under a Letter of Credit, shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall
be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.16 under all circumstances,
including the following circumstances:

               (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have
against Agent, any Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever;

               (ii) the failure of any Borrower or any other Person to comply, in connection with a Letter of
Credit Borrowing, with the conditions set forth in this Agreement for the making of a Revolving
Advance, it being acknowledged that such conditions are not required for the making of a Letter of
Credit Borrowing and the obligation of the Lenders to make Participation Advances under Section
2.12;

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

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

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

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

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

               (viii) any failure by the Agent or any of Agent’s Affiliates to issue any Letter of Credit in
the form requested by Borrowing Agent, unless the Agent has received written

30

 

notice from Borrowing Agent of such failure within three (3) Business Days after the Agent
shall have furnished Borrowing Agent a copy of such Letter of Credit and such error is material and
no drawing has been made thereon prior to receipt of such notice;

               (ix) any Material Adverse Effect on any Borrower or any Guarantor;

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

               (xi) the occurrence or continuance of an insolvency proceeding with respect to any Borrower or
any Guarantor;

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

               (xiii) the fact that the Term shall have expired or this Agreement or the Obligations
hereunder shall have been terminated; and

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

     2.17. Indemnity. In addition to amounts payable as provided in Section 16.5, each
Borrower hereby agrees to protect, indemnify, pay and save harmless Agent and any of Agent’s
Affiliates that have issued a Letter of Credit from and against any and all claims, demands,
liabilities, damages, taxes, penalties, interest, judgments, losses, costs, charges and expenses
(including reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of counsel and allocated costs of internal
counsel) which the Agent or any of Agent’s Affiliates may incur or be subject to as a consequence,
direct or indirect, of the issuance of any Letter of Credit, other than as a result of (A) the
gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Agent as determined by a final and non-appealable
judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or (b) the wrongful dishonor by the Agent or any of
Agent’s Affiliates of a proper demand for payment made under any Letter of Credit, except if such
dishonor resulted from any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future
de jure or de facto Governmental Body (all such acts or omissions herein called “Governmental
Acts”).

     2.18. Liability for Acts and Omissions. As between Borrowers and Agent and Lenders,
each Borrower assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit
by, the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation
of the respective foregoing, Agent shall not be responsible for: (i) the form, validity,
sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any party in
connection with the application for an issuance of any such Letter of Credit, even if it should in
fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged
(even if Agent shall have been notified thereof); (ii) the validity or sufficiency of any
instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any such Letter of Credit
or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to
be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) the failure of the beneficiary of any such Letter
of Credit, or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred, to comply fully
with any conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit or any other claim of any
Borrower against any

31

 

beneficiary of such Letter of Credit, or any such transferee, or any dispute between or among
any Borrower and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any such transferee; (iv) errors,
omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable,
telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (v) errors in interpretation of
technical terms; (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required
in order to make a drawing under any such Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; (vii) the
misapplication by the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under
such Letter of Credit; or (viii) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of Agent,
including any governmental acts, and none of the above shall affect or impair, or prevent the
vesting of, any of Agent’s rights or powers hereunder. Nothing in the preceding sentence shall
relieve Agent from liability for Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment) in connection with actions or
omissions described in such clauses (i) through (viii) of such sentence. In no event shall Agent
or Agent’s Affiliates be liable to any Borrower for any indirect, consequential, incidental,
punitive, exemplary or special damages or expenses (including without limitation attorneys’ fees),
or for any damages resulting from any change in the value of any property relating to a Letter of
Credit.

          Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Agent and each of its Affiliates (i) may
rely on any oral or other communication believed in good faith by Agent or such Affiliate to have
been authorized or given by or on behalf of the applicant for a Letter of Credit, (ii) may honor
any presentation if the documents presented appear on their face substantially to comply with the
terms and conditions of the relevant Letter of Credit; (iii) may honor a previously dishonored
presentation under a Letter of Credit, whether such dishonor was pursuant to a court order, to
settle or compromise any claim of wrongful dishonor, or otherwise, and shall be entitled to
reimbursement to the same extent as if such presentation had initially been honored, together with
any interest paid by Agent or its Affiliates; (iv) may honor any drawing that is payable upon
presentation of a statement advising negotiation or payment, upon receipt of such statement (even
if such statement indicates that a draft or other document is being delivered separately), and
shall not be liable for any failure of any such draft or other document to arrive, or to conform in
any way with the relevant Letter of Credit; (v) may pay any paying or negotiating bank claiming
that it rightfully honored under the laws or practices of the place where such bank is located; and
(vi) may settle or adjust any claim or demand made on Agent or its Affiliate in any way related to
any order issued at the applicant’s request to an air carrier, a letter of guarantee or of
indemnity issued to a carrier or any similar document (each an “Order”) and honor any drawing in
connection with any Letter of Credit that is the subject of such Order, notwithstanding that any
drafts or other documents presented in connection with such Letter of Credit fail to conform in any
way with such Letter of Credit.

          In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific provisions set forth above,
any action taken or omitted by Agent under or in connection with the Letters of Credit issued by it
or any documents and certificates delivered thereunder, if taken or omitted in good faith and
without gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction
in a final non-appealable judgment), shall not put Agent under any resulting liability to any
Borrower or any Lender.

32

 

     2.19. Additional Payments. Any sums expended by Agent or any Lender due to any Loan
Party’s failure to perform or comply with its obligations under this Agreement or any Other
Document including any Loan Party’s obligations under Sections 4.2, 4.4, 4.12, 4.13, 4.14 and 6.1
hereof, may be charged to Borrowers’ Account as a Revolving Advance and added to the Obligations.

     2.20. Manner of Borrowing and Payment.

          (a) Each borrowing of Revolving Advances shall be advanced according to the applicable
Commitment Percentages of Lenders.

          (b) Each payment (including each prepayment) by any Borrower on account of the principal of
and interest on the Revolving Advances, shall be applied to the Revolving Advances pro rata
according to the applicable Commitment Percentages of Lenders. Except as expressly provided
herein, all payments (including prepayments) to be made by any Borrower on account of principal,
interest and fees shall be made without set off or counterclaim and shall be made to Agent on
behalf of the Lenders to the Payment Office, in each case on or prior to 1:00 P.M., New York time,
in Dollars and in immediately available funds.

          (c) (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Sections 2.20(a) and (b) hereof,
commencing with the first Business Day following the Closing Date, each borrowing of Revolving
Advances shall be advanced by Agent and each payment by any Borrower on account of Revolving
Advances shall be applied first to those Revolving Advances advanced by Agent. On or before 1:00
P.M., New York time, on each Settlement Date commencing with the first Settlement Date following
the Closing Date, Agent and Lenders shall make certain payments as follows: (I) if the aggregate
amount of new Revolving Advances made by Agent during the preceding Week (if any) exceeds the
aggregate amount of repayments applied to outstanding Revolving Advances during such preceding
Week, then each Lender shall provide Agent with funds in an amount equal to its applicable
Commitment Percentage of the difference between (w) such Revolving Advances and (x) such repayments
and (II) if the aggregate amount of repayments applied to outstanding Revolving Advances during
such Week exceeds the aggregate amount of new Revolving Advances made during such Week, then Agent
shall provide each Lender with funds in an amount equal to its applicable Commitment Percentage of
the difference between (y) such repayments and (z) such Revolving Advances.

               (ii) Each Lender shall be entitled to earn interest at the applicable Revolving Interest Rate
on outstanding Advances which it has funded.

               (iii) Promptly following each Settlement Date, Agent shall submit to each Lender a certificate
with respect to payments received and Advances made during the Week immediately preceding such
Settlement Date. Such certificate of Agent shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

          (d) If any Lender or Participant (a “benefited Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment
of all or part of its Advances, or interest thereon, or receive any Collateral in respect thereof
(whether voluntarily or involuntarily or by set-off) in a greater proportion than any such payment
to and Collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of such other

33

 

Lender’s Advances, or interest thereon, and such greater proportionate payment or receipt of
Collateral is not expressly permitted hereunder, such benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from
the other Lenders a participation in such portion of each such other Lender’s Advances, or shall
provide such other Lender with the benefits of any such Collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as
shall be necessary to cause such benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such
Collateral or proceeds ratably with each of the other Lenders; provided, however, that if all or
any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such benefited Lender,
such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of
such recovery, but without interest. Each Lender so purchasing a portion of another Lender’s
Advances may exercise all rights of payment (including rights of set-off) with respect to such
portion as fully as if such Lender were the direct holder of such portion.

          (e) Unless Agent shall have been notified by telephone, confirmed in writing, by any Lender
that such Lender will not make the amount which would constitute its applicable Commitment
Percentage of the Advances available to Agent, Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) assume
that such Lender shall make such amount available to Agent on the next Settlement Date and, in
reliance upon such assumption, make available to Borrowers a corresponding amount. Agent will
promptly notify Borrowing Agent of its receipt of any such notice from a Lender. If such amount is
made available to Agent on a date after such next Settlement Date, such Lender shall pay to Agent
on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) the daily average Federal Funds Rate (computed on
the basis of a year of 360 days) during such period as quoted by Agent, times (ii) such amount,
times (iii) the number of days from and including such Settlement Date to the date on which such
amount becomes immediately available to Agent. A certificate of Agent submitted to any Lender with
respect to any amounts owing under this paragraph (e) shall be conclusive, in the absence of
manifest error. If such amount is not in fact made available to Agent by such Lender within three
(3) Business Days after such Settlement Date, Agent shall be entitled to recover such an amount,
with interest thereon at the rate per annum then applicable to such Revolving Advances hereunder,
on demand from Borrowers; provided, however, that Agent’s right to such recovery shall not
prejudice or otherwise adversely affect Borrowers’ rights (if any) against such Lender.

     2.21. Mandatory Prepayments.

          Subject to Section 4.3 hereof, when any Loan Party sells or otherwise disposes of any
Collateral other than Inventory in the Ordinary Course of Business, Borrowers shall repay the
Advances in an amount equal to the net proceeds of such sale (i.e., gross proceeds less the
reasonable costs of such sales or other dispositions), such repayments to be made promptly but in
no event more than one (1) Business Day following receipt of such net proceeds, and until the date
of payment, such proceeds shall be held in trust for Agent. The foregoing shall not be deemed to
be implied consent to any such sale otherwise prohibited by the terms and conditions hereof. Such
repayments shall be applied to the Advances in such order as Agent may determine, subject to
Borrowers’ ability to reborrow Revolving Advances in accordance with the terms hereof.

     2.22. Use of Proceeds.

34

 

          (a) Borrowers shall apply the proceeds of Advances to (i) repay existing Indebtedness owed to
Laurus Master Fund, Ltd.,(ii) pay fees and expenses relating to this transaction and (iii) provide
for its working capital needs and reimburse drawings under Letters of Credit.

          (b) Without limiting the generality of Section 2.22(a) above, neither any Loan Party nor any
other Person which may in the future become party to this Agreement or the Other Documents as a
Loan Party intends to use nor shall they use any portion of the proceeds of the Advances, directly
or indirectly, for any purpose in violation of the Trading with the Enemy Act.

     2.23. Defaulting Lender.

          (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event any Lender (x) has
refused (which refusal constitutes a breach by such Lender of its obligations under this Agreement)
to make available its portion of any Advance or (y) notifies either Agent or Borrowing Agent that
it does not intend to make available its portion of any Advance (if the actual refusal would
constitute a breach by such Lender of its obligations under this Agreement) (each, a “Lender
Default”), all rights and obligations hereunder of such Lender (a “Defaulting Lender”) as to which
a Lender Default is in effect and of the other parties hereto shall be modified to the extent of
the express provisions of this Section 2.23 while such Lender Default remains in effect.

          (b) Advances shall be incurred pro rata from Lenders (the “Non-Defaulting Lenders”) which are
not Defaulting Lenders based on their respective Commitment Percentages, and no Commitment
Percentage of any Lender or any pro rata share of any Advances required to be advanced by any
Lender shall be increased as a result of such Lender Default. Amounts received in respect of
principal of any type of Advances shall be applied to reduce the applicable Advances of each Lender
(other than any Defaulting Lender) pro rata based on the aggregate of the outstanding Advances of
that type of all Lenders at the time of such application; provided, that, Agent shall not
be obligated to transfer to a Defaulting Lender any payments received by Agent for the Defaulting
Lender’s benefit, nor shall a Defaulting Lender be entitled to the sharing of any payments
hereunder (including any principal, interest or fees). Amounts payable to a Defaulting Lender
shall instead be paid to or retained by Agent. Agent may hold and, in its discretion, re-lend to a
Borrower the amount of such payments received or retained by it for the account of such Defaulting
Lender.

          (c) A Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to give instructions to Agent or to approve,
disapprove, consent to or vote on any matters relating to this Agreement and the Other Documents.
All amendments, waivers and other modifications of this Agreement and the Other Documents may be
made without regard to a Defaulting Lender and, for purposes of the definition of “Required
Lenders”, a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not to be a Lender and not to have Advances
outstanding.

          (d) Other than as expressly set forth in this Section 2.23, the rights and obligations of a
Defaulting Lender (including the obligation to indemnify Agent) and the other parties hereto shall
remain unchanged. Nothing in this Section 2.23 shall be deemed to release any Defaulting Lender
from its obligations under this Agreement and the Other Documents, shall

35

 

alter such obligations, shall operate as a waiver of any default by such Defaulting Lender
hereunder, or shall prejudice any rights which any Borrower, Agent or any Lender may have against
any Defaulting Lender as a result of any default by such Defaulting Lender hereunder.

          (e) In the event a Defaulting Lender retroactively cures to the satisfaction of Agent the
breach which caused a Lender to become a Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender shall no longer
be a Defaulting Lender and shall be treated as a Lender under this Agreement.

III. INTEREST AND FEES.

     3.1. Interest. Interest on Advances shall be payable in arrears on the first day of
each month with respect to Domestic Rate Loans and, with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans, at the
end of each Interest Period and upon conversion to a Domestic Rate Loan (if such conversion occurs
other than on the last day of an applicable Interest Period). Interest charges shall be computed
on the greater of (x) the Minimum Loan Amount or (y) the actual principal amount of Revolving
Advances outstanding during the month at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Revolving
Interest Rate. Whenever, subsequent to the date of this Agreement, the Alternate Base Rate is
increased or decreased, the applicable Revolving Interest Rate shall be similarly changed without
notice or demand of any kind by an amount equal to the amount of such change in the Alternate Base
Rate during the time such change or changes remain in effect. The Eurodollar Rate shall be
adjusted with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans without notice or demand of any kind on the
effective date of any change in the Reserve Percentage as of such effective date. Upon and after
the occurrence of an Event of Default, and during the continuation thereof, at the option of Agent
or at the direction of Required Lenders, the Obligations shall bear interest at the applicable
Revolving Interest Rate plus two (2%) percent per annum (the “Default Rate”).

     3.2. Letter of Credit Fees.

          (a) Borrowers shall pay (x) to Agent, for the ratable benefit of Lenders, fees for each Letter
of Credit for the period from and excluding the date of issuance of same to and including the date
of expiration or termination, equal to the average daily face amount of each outstanding Letter of
Credit multiplied by three and one-quarter of one percent (3.25%) per annum, such fees to be
calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed and to be payable
quarterly in arrears on the first day of each quarter and on the last day of the Term, and (y) to
the Issuer, a fronting fee of one quarter of one percent (0.25%) per annum, together with any and
all administrative, issuance, amendment, payment and negotiation charges with respect to Letters of
Credit and all fees and expenses as agreed upon by the Issuer and the Borrowing Agent in connection
with any Letter of Credit, including in connection with the opening, amendment or renewal of any
such Letter of Credit and any acceptances created thereunder and shall reimburse Agent for any and
all fees and expenses, if any, paid by Agent to the Issuer (all of the foregoing fees, the “Letter
of Credit Fees”). All such charges shall be deemed earned in full on the date when the same are
due and payable hereunder and shall not be subject to rebate or pro-ration upon the termination of
this Agreement for any reason. Any such charge in effect at the time of a particular transaction
shall be the charge for that transaction, notwithstanding any subsequent change in the Issuer’s
prevailing charges for that type of transaction. All Letter of Credit Fees payable hereunder shall
be deemed earned in full on the

36

 

date when the same are due and payable hereunder and shall not be subject to rebate or
pro-ration upon the termination of this Agreement for any reason.

          On demand after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrowers
will cause cash to be deposited and maintained in an account with Agent, as cash collateral, in an
amount equal to one hundred and five percent (105%) of the Maximum Undrawn Amount of all
outstanding Letters of Credit, and each Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes Agent, in its
discretion, on such Borrower’s behalf and in such Borrower’s name, to open such an account and to
make and maintain deposits therein, or in an account opened by such Borrower, in the amounts
required to be made by such Borrower, out of the proceeds of Receivables or other Collateral or out
of any other funds of such Borrower coming into any Lender’s possession at any time. Agent will
invest such cash collateral (less applicable reserves) in such short-term money-market items as to
which Agent and such Borrower mutually agree and the net return on such investments shall be
credited to such account and constitute additional cash collateral. No Borrower may withdraw
amounts credited to any such account except upon the occurrence of all of the following: (w)
payment and performance in full of all Obligations, (x) expiration of all Letters of Credit, (y)
termination of this Agreement or (z) upon written waiver of all existing Events of Default.

     3.3. Closing Fee and Facility Fee.

          (a) Closing Fee. Upon the execution of this Agreement, Borrowers shall pay to Agent
for the ratable benefit of Lenders a closing fee of $100,000 less that portion of the
deposit of $65,000 heretofore paid by DRI to Agent remaining after application of such deposit to
out of pocket expenses and the underwriting fee referenced in Section 3.3(c).

          (b) Facility Fee. If, for any calendar quarter during the Term, the average daily
unpaid balance of the Revolving Advances and undrawn amount of any outstanding Letters of Credit
for each day of such calendar quarter does not equal the Maximum Revolving Advance Amount, then
Borrowers shall pay to Agent for the ratable benefit of Lenders a fee at a rate equal to one half
of one percent (0.50%) per annum on the amount by which the Maximum Revolving Advance Amount
exceeds such average daily unpaid balance. Such fee shall be payable to Agent in arrears on the
first day of each calendar quarter with respect to the previous calendar quarter.

          (c) Underwriting Fee. Pursuant to the proposal letter dated June 6, 2008, from Agent
to DRI, DRI agreed to pay to Agent for the ratable benefit of Lenders an underwriting fee of
$2,500, and agreed that such fee could be deducted from the deposit of $65,000 heretofore paid by
DRI to Agent.

     3.4. Collateral Evaluation Fee and Collateral Monitoring Fee.

          (a) Collateral Evaluation Fee. Borrowers shall pay Agent a collateral evaluation fee
equal to $2,000 per month commencing on the first day of the month following the Closing Date and
on the first day of each month thereafter during the Term. The collateral evaluation fee shall be
deemed earned in full on the date when same is due and payable

37

 

hereunder and shall not be subject to rebate or proration upon termination of this Agreement
for any reason.

          (b) Collateral Monitoring Fee. Borrowers shall pay to Agent on the first day of each
month following any month in which Agent performs any collateral monitoring — namely any field
examination, collateral analysis or other business analysis, the need for which is to be determined
by Agent and which monitoring is undertaken by Agent or for Agent’s benefit — a collateral
monitoring fee in an amount equal to $750 per day for each person employed to perform such
monitoring, plus all costs and disbursements incurred by Agent in the performance of such
examination or analysis.

     3.5. Computation of Interest and Fees. Interest and fees hereunder shall be computed
on the basis of a year of 360 days and for the actual number of days elapsed. If any payment to be
made hereunder becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the due date thereof
shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and interest thereon shall be payable at the
applicable Revolving Interest Rate during such extension.

     3.6. Maximum Charges. In no event whatsoever shall interest and other charges charged
hereunder exceed the highest rate permissible under law. In the event interest and other charges as
computed hereunder would otherwise exceed the highest rate permitted under law, such excess amount
shall be first applied to any unpaid principal balance owed by Borrowers, and if the then remaining
excess amount is greater than the previously unpaid principal balance, Lenders shall promptly
refund such excess amount to Borrowers and the provisions hereof shall be deemed amended to provide
for such permissible rate.

     3.7. Increased Costs. In the event that any Applicable Law, or any change therein or
in the interpretation or application thereof, or compliance by any Lender (for purposes of this
Section 3.7, the term “Lender” shall include Agent or any Lender and any corporation or bank
controlling Agent or any Lender) and the office or branch where Agent or any Lender (as so defined)
makes or maintains any Eurodollar Rate Loans with any request or directive (whether or not having
the force of law) from any central bank or other financial, monetary or other authority, shall:

          (a) subject Agent or any Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this
Agreement or any Other Document or change the basis of taxation of payments to Agent or any Lender
of principal, fees, interest or any other amount payable hereunder or under any Other Documents
(except for changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of Agent or any Lender by the
jurisdiction in which it maintains its principal office);

          (b) impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, assessment or similar
requirement against assets held by, or deposits in or for the account of, advances or loans by, or
other credit extended by, any office of Agent or any Lender, including pursuant to Regulation D of
the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System; or

          (c) impose on Agent or any Lender or the London interbank Eurodollar market any other
condition with respect to this Agreement or any Other Document;

38

 

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Agent or any Lender of making,
renewing or maintaining its Advances hereunder by an amount that Agent or such Lender deems to be
material or to reduce the amount of any payment (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) in
respect of any of the Advances by an amount that Agent or such Lender deems to be material, then,
in any case Borrowers shall promptly pay Agent or such Lender, upon its demand, such additional
amount as will compensate Agent or such Lender for such additional cost or such reduction, as the
case may be, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to increased costs which are reflected in
the Eurodollar Rate, as the case may be. Agent or such Lender shall certify the amount of such
additional cost or reduced amount to Borrowing Agent, and such certification shall be conclusive
absent manifest error.

     3.8. Basis For Determining Interest Rate Inadequate or Unfair. In the event that
Agent or any Lender shall have determined that:

          (a) reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Rate applicable pursuant to
Section 2.2 hereof for any Interest Period; or

          (b) Dollar deposits in the relevant amount and for the relevant maturity are not available in
the London interbank Eurodollar market, with respect to an outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loan, a
proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan, or a proposed conversion of a Domestic Rate Loan into a Eurodollar
Rate Loan,

then Agent shall give Borrowing Agent prompt written, telephonic or telegraphic notice of such
determination. If such notice is given, (i) any such requested Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be made
as a Domestic Rate Loan, unless Borrowing Agent shall notify Agent no later than 10:00 a.m. (New
York City time) two (2) Business Days prior to the date of such proposed borrowing, that its
request for such borrowing shall be cancelled or made as an unaffected type of Eurodollar Rate
Loan, (ii) any Domestic Rate Loan or Eurodollar Rate Loan which was to have been converted to an
affected type of Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be continued as or converted into a Domestic Rate Loan,
or, if Borrowing Agent shall notify Agent, no later than 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) two (2)
Business Days prior to the proposed conversion, shall be maintained as an unaffected type of
Eurodollar Rate Loan, and (iii) any outstanding affected Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be converted
into a Domestic Rate Loan, or, if Borrowing Agent shall notify Agent, no later than 10:00 a.m. (New
York City time) two (2) Business Days prior to the last Business Day of the then current Interest
Period applicable to such affected Eurodollar Rate Loan, shall be converted into an unaffected type
of Eurodollar Rate Loan, on the last Business Day of the then current Interest Period for such
affected Eurodollar Rate Loans. Until such notice has been withdrawn, Lenders shall have no
obligation to make an affected type of Eurodollar Rate Loan or maintain outstanding affected
Eurodollar Rate Loans and no Borrower shall have the right to convert a Domestic Rate Loan or an
unaffected type of Eurodollar Rate Loan into an affected type of Eurodollar Rate Loan.

     3.9. Capital Adequacy.

          (a) In the event that Agent or any Lender shall have determined that any Applicable Law or
guideline regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or
administration thereof by any Governmental Body, central bank or

39

 

comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by
Agent or any Lender (for purposes of this Section 3.9, the term “Lender” shall include Agent or any
Lender and any corporation or bank controlling Agent or any Lender) and the office or branch where
Agent or any Lender (as so defined) makes or maintains any Eurodollar Rate Loans with any request
or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such
authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of
return on Agent or any Lender’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level
below that which Agent or such Lender could have achieved but for such adoption, change or
compliance (taking into consideration Agent’s and each Lender’s policies with respect to capital
adequacy) by an amount deemed by Agent or any Lender to be material, then, from time to time,
Borrowers shall pay upon demand to Agent or such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will
compensate Agent or such Lender for such reduction. In determining such amount or amounts, Agent
or such Lender may use any reasonable averaging or attribution methods. The protection of this
Section 3.9 shall be available to Agent and each Lender regardless of any possible contention of
invalidity or inapplicability with respect to the Applicable Law or condition.

          (b) A certificate of Agent or such Lender setting forth such amount or amounts as shall be
necessary to compensate Agent or such Lender with respect to Section 3.9(a) hereof when delivered
to Borrowing Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

     3.10. Gross Up for Taxes. If any Borrower shall be required by Applicable Law to
withhold or deduct any taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under this Agreement or any of
the Other Documents to Agent, or any Lender, assignee of any Lender, or Participant (each,
individually, a “Payee” and collectively, the “Payees”), (a) the sum payable to such Payee or
Payees, as the case may be, shall be increased as may be necessary so that, after making all
required withholding or deductions, the applicable Payee or Payees receives an amount equal to the
sum it would have received had no such withholding or deductions been made (the “Gross-Up
Payment”), (b) such Borrower shall make such withholding or deductions, and (c) such Borrower shall
pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in
accordance with Applicable Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Borrower shall be obligated to
make any portion of the Gross-Up Payment that is attributable to any withholding or deductions that
would not have been paid or claimed had the applicable Payee or Payees properly claimed a complete
exemption with respect thereto pursuant to Section 3.11 hereof.

     3.11. Withholding Tax Exemption.

          (a) Each Payee that is not incorporated under the Laws of the United States of America or a
state thereof (and, upon the written request of Agent, each other Payee) agrees that it will
deliver to Borrowing Agent and Agent two (2) duly completed appropriate valid Withholding
Certificates (as defined under §1.1441-1(c)(16) of the Income Tax Regulations (“Regulations”))
certifying its status (i.e., U.S. or foreign person) and, if appropriate, making a claim of
reduced, or exemption from, U.S. withholding tax on the basis of an income tax treaty or an
exemption provided by the Code. The term “Withholding Certificate” means a Form W-9; a Form
W-8BEN; a Form W-8ECI; a Form W-8IMY and the related statements and certifications as required
under §1.1441-1(e)(2) and/or (3) of the Regulations; a statement

40

 

described in §1.871-14(c)(2)(v) of the Regulations; or any other certificates under the Code
or Regulations that certify or establish the status of a payee or beneficial owner as a U.S. or
foreign person.

          (b) Each Payee required to deliver to Borrowing Agent and Agent a valid Withholding
Certificate pursuant to Section 3.11(a) hereof shall deliver such valid Withholding Certificate as
follows: (A) each Payee which is a party hereto on the Closing Date shall deliver such valid
Withholding Certificate at least five (5) Business Days prior to the first date on which any
interest or fees are payable by any Borrower hereunder for the account of such Payee; (B) each
Payee shall deliver such valid Withholding Certificate at least five (5) Business Days before the
effective date of such assignment or participation (unless Agent in its sole discretion shall
permit such Payee to deliver such Withholding Certificate less than five (5) Business Days before
such date in which case it shall be due on the date specified by Agent). Each Payee which so
delivers a valid Withholding Certificate further undertakes to deliver to Borrowing Agent and Agent
two (2) additional copies of such Withholding Certificate (or a successor form) on or before the
date that such Withholding Certificate expires or becomes obsolete or after the occurrence of any
event requiring a change in the most recent Withholding Certificate so delivered by it, and such
amendments thereto or extensions or renewals thereof as may be reasonably requested by Borrowing
Agent or Agent.

          (c) Notwithstanding the submission of a Withholding Certificate claiming a reduced rate of or
exemption from U.S. withholding tax required under Section 3.11(b) hereof, Agent shall be entitled
to withhold United States federal income taxes at the full 30% withholding rate if in its
reasonable judgment it is required to do so under the due diligence requirements imposed upon a
withholding agent under §1.1441-7(b) of the Regulations. Further, Agent is indemnified under
§1.1461-1(e) of the Regulations against any claims and demands of any Payee for the amount of any
tax it deducts and withholds in accordance with regulations under §1441 of the Code.

interest and shall cause its financial statements to reflect such security interest. Each Loan
Party shall promptly provide Agent with written notice of all commercial tort claims, such notice
to contain the case title together with the applicable court and a brief description of the

     4.6. Defense of Agent’s and Lenders’ Interests. Until (a) payment and performance in
full of all of the Obligations and (b) termination of this Agreement, Agent’s interests in the
Collateral shall continue in full force and effect. During such period no Loan Party shall,
without Agent’s prior written consent, pledge, sell (except Inventory in the Ordinary Course of
Business and Equipment to the extent permitted in Section 4.3 hereof), assign, transfer, create or
suffer to exist a Lien upon or encumber or allow or suffer to be encumbered in any way except for
Permitted Encumbrances, any part of the Collateral. Each Loan Party shall defend Agent’s interests
in the Collateral against any and all Persons whatsoever. At any time following demand by Agent
for payment of all Obligations, Agent shall have the right to take possession of the indicia of the
Collateral and the Collateral in whatever physical form contained, including: labels, stationery,
documents, instruments and advertising materials. If Agent exercises this right to take possession
of the Collateral, Loan Parties shall, upon demand, assemble it in the best manner possible and
make it available to Agent at a place reasonably convenient to Agent. In addition, with respect to
all Collateral, Agent and Lenders shall be entitled to all of the rights and remedies set forth
herein and further provided by the Uniform Commercial Code or other Applicable Law. Each Loan
Party shall, and Agent may, at its option, instruct all suppliers, carriers, forwarders,
warehousers or others receiving or holding cash, checks, Inventory, documents or instruments in
which Agent holds a security interest to deliver same to Agent and/or subject to Agent’s order and
if they shall come into any Loan Party’s possession, they, and each of them, shall be held by such
Loan Party in trust as Agent’s trustee, and such Loan

43

 

Party will immediately deliver them to Agent in their original form together with any
necessary endorsement.

applied in the opinion of such independent public accountant as shall then be regularly engaged by
Loan Parties.

     4.8. Financial Disclosure. Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs
all accountants and auditors employed by such Loan Party at any time during the Term to exhibit and
deliver to Agent and each Lender copies of any of such Loan Party’s financial statements, trial
balances or other accounting records of any sort in the accountant’s or auditor’s possession, and
to disclose to Agent and each Lender any information such accountants may have concerning such Loan
Party’s financial status and business operations. Each Loan Party hereby authorizes all
Governmental Bodies to furnish to Agent and each Lender copies of reports or examinations relating
to such Loan Party, whether made by such Loan Party or otherwise; however, Agent and each Lender
will attempt to obtain such information or materials directly from such Loan Party prior to
obtaining such information or materials from such accountants or Governmental Bodies.

     4.9. Compliance with Laws. Each Loan Party shall comply with all Applicable Laws with
respect to the Collateral or any part thereof or to the operation of such Loan Party’s business the
non-compliance with which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each
Loan Party may, however, contest or dispute any Applicable Laws in any reasonable manner, provided
that any related Lien is inchoate or stayed and sufficient reserves are established to the
reasonable satisfaction of Agent to protect Agent’s Lien on or security interest in the Collateral.
The assets of Loan Parties at all times shall be maintained in accordance with the requirements of
all insurance carriers which provide insurance with respect to the assets of Loan Parties so that
such insurance shall remain in full force and effect.

     4.10. Inspection of Premises. At all reasonable times Agent and each Lender shall
have full access to and the right to audit, check, inspect and make abstracts and copies from each
Loan Party’s books, records, audits, correspondence and all other papers relating to the Collateral
and the operation of each Loan Party’s business. Agent, any Lender and their agents may enter upon
any premises of any Loan Party at any time during business hours and at any other reasonable time,
and from time to time, for the purpose of inspecting the Collateral and any and all records
pertaining thereto and the operation of such Loan Party’s business.

     4.11. Insurance. The assets and properties of each Loan Party at all times shall be
maintained in accordance with the requirements of all insurance carriers which provide insurance

44

 

with respect to the assets and properties of such Loan Party so that such insurance shall remain in
full force and effect. Each Loan Party shall bear the full risk of any loss of any nature
whatsoever with respect to the Collateral. At each Loan Party’s own cost and expense in amounts
and with carriers acceptable to Agent, each Loan Party shall (a) keep all its insurable properties
and properties in which such Loan Party has an interest insured against the hazards of fire, flood,
sprinkler leakage, those hazards covered by extended coverage insurance and such other hazards, and
for such amounts, as is customary in the case of companies engaged in businesses similar to such
Loan Party’s including business interruption insurance; (b) maintain a bond in such amounts as is
customary in the case of companies engaged in businesses similar to such Loan Party insuring
against larceny, embezzlement or other criminal misappropriation of insured’s officers and
employees who may either singly or jointly with others at any time have access to the assets or
funds of such Loan Party either directly or through authority to draw upon such funds or to direct
generally the disposition of such assets; (c) maintain public and product liability insurance
against claims for personal injury, death or property damage suffered by others; (d) maintain all
such worker’s compensation or similar insurance as may be required under the laws of any state or
jurisdiction in which such Loan Party is engaged in business; (e) furnish Agent with (i) copies of
all policies and evidence of the maintenance of such policies by the renewal thereof at least
thirty (30) days before any expiration date, and (ii) appropriate lender loss payable endorsements
in form and substance satisfactory to Agent, naming Agent as a co-insured and lender loss payee as
its interests may appear with respect to all insurance coverage referred to in clauses (a), and (c)
above, and providing (A) that all proceeds thereunder shall be payable to Agent, (B) no such
insurance shall be affected by any act or neglect of the insured or owner of the property described
in such policy, and (C) that such policy and loss payable clauses may not be cancelled, amended or
terminated unless at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice is given to Agent. In the event
of any loss thereunder, the carriers named therein hereby are directed by Agent and the applicable
Loan Party to make payment for such loss to Agent and not to such Loan Party and Agent jointly. If
any insurance losses are paid by check, draft or other instrument payable to any Loan Party and
Agent jointly, Agent may endorse such Loan Party’s name thereon and do such other things as Agent
may deem advisable to reduce the same to cash. Agent is hereby authorized to adjust and compromise
claims under insurance coverage referred to in clauses (a), and (b) above. All loss recoveries
received by Agent upon any such insurance may be applied to the Obligations, in such order as Agent
in its sole discretion shall determine. Any surplus shall be paid by Agent to Loan Parties or
applied as may be otherwise required by law. Any deficiency thereon shall be paid by Loan Parties
to Agent, on demand.

     4.12. Failure to Pay Insurance. If any Loan Party fails to obtain insurance as
hereinabove provided, or to keep the same in force, Agent, if Agent so elects, may obtain such
insurance and pay the premium therefor on behalf of such Loan Party, and charge Borrowers’ Account
therefor as a Revolving Advance of a Domestic Rate Loan and such expenses so paid shall be part of
the Obligations.

     4.13. Payment of Taxes. Each Loan Party will pay, when due, all taxes, assessments
and other Charges lawfully levied or assessed upon such Loan Party or any of the Collateral
including real and personal property taxes, assessments and charges and all franchise, income,
employment, social security benefits, withholding, and sales taxes. If any tax by any Governmental
Body is or may be imposed on or as a result of any transaction between any Loan Party and Agent or
any Lender which Agent or any Lender may be required to withhold or pay

45

 

or if any taxes, assessments, or other Charges remain unpaid after the date fixed for their
payment, or if any claim shall be made which, in Agent’s or any Lender’s opinion, may possibly
create a valid Lien on the Collateral, Agent may without notice to Loan Parties pay the taxes,
assessments or other Charges and each Loan Party hereby indemnifies and holds Agent and each Lender
harmless in respect thereof. Agent will not pay any taxes, assessments or Charges to the extent
that any applicable Loan Party has Properly Contested those taxes, assessments or Charges. The
amount of any payment by Agent under this Section 4.13 shall be charged to Borrowers’ Account as a
Revolving Advance and added to the Obligations and, until Loan Parties shall furnish Agent with an
indemnity therefor (or supply Agent with evidence satisfactory to Agent that due provision for the
payment thereof has been made), Agent may hold without interest any balance standing to Borrowers’
credit and Agent shall retain its security interest in and Lien on any and all Collateral held by
Agent.

     4.14. Payment of Leasehold Obligations. Each Loan Party shall at all times pay, when
and as due, its rental obligations under all leases under which it is a tenant, and shall otherwise
comply, in all material respects, with all other terms of such leases and keep them in full force
and effect (unless such leases are being terminated in the Ordinary Course of Business) and, at
Agent’s request will provide evidence of having done so.

     4.15. Receivables.

          (a) Nature of Receivables. Each of the Receivables shall be a bona fide and valid
account representing a bona fide indebtedness incurred by the Customer therein named, for a fixed
sum as set forth in the invoice relating thereto (provided immaterial or unintentional invoice
errors shall not be deemed to be a breach hereof) with respect to an absolute sale or lease and
delivery of goods upon stated terms of a Loan Party, or work, labor or services theretofore
rendered by a Loan Party as of the date each Receivable is created. Same shall be due and owing in
accordance with the applicable Loan Party’s standard terms of sale without dispute, setoff or
counterclaim except as may be stated on the accounts receivable schedules delivered by Loan Parties
to Agent.

          (b) Solvency of Customers. Each Customer, to the best of each Loan Party’s knowledge,
as of the date each Receivable is created, is and will be solvent and able to pay all Receivables
on which the Customer is obligated in full when due or with respect to such Customers of any Loan
Party who are not solvent such Loan Party has set up on its books and in its financial records bad
debt reserves adequate to cover such Receivables.

          (c) Location of Loan Parties. Each Loan Party’s chief executive office is located at
the location set forth on Schedule 4.5(c). Until written notice is given to Agent by Borrowing
Agent of any other office at which any Loan Party keeps its records pertaining to Receivables, all
such records shall be kept at such executive office.

          (d) Collection of Receivables. Until any Loan Party’s authority to do so is
terminated by Agent (which notice Agent may give at any time following the occurrence of an Event
of Default or a Default or when Agent in its sole discretion deems it to be in Lenders’ best
interest to do so), each Loan Party will, at such Loan Party’s sole cost and expense, but on
Agent’s behalf and for Agent’s account, collect as Agent’s property and in trust for Agent all

46

 

amounts received on Receivables, and shall not commingle such collections with any Loan
Party’s funds or use the same except to pay Obligations. Each Loan Party shall deposit in the
Blocked Account or, upon request by Agent, deliver to Agent, in original form and on the date of
receipt thereof, all checks, drafts, notes, money orders, acceptances, cash and other evidences of
Indebtedness.

          (e) Notification of Assignment of Receivables. At any time following the occurrence
and during the continuance of an Event of Default or a Default, Agent shall have the right to send
notice of the assignment of, and Agent’s security interest in and Lien on, the Receivables to any
and all Customers or any third party holding or otherwise concerned with any of the Collateral.
Thereafter, Agent shall have the sole right to collect the Receivables, take possession of the
Collateral, or both. Agent’s actual collection expenses, including, but not limited to, stationery
and postage, telephone and telegraph, secretarial and clerical expenses and the salaries of any
collection personnel used for collection, may be charged to Borrowers’ Account and added to the
Obligations.

          (f) Power of Agent to Act on Loan Parties’ Behalf. Agent shall have the right to
receive, endorse, assign and/or deliver in the name of Agent or any Loan Party any and all checks,
drafts and other instruments for the payment of money relating to the Receivables, and each Loan
Party hereby waives notice of presentment, protest and non-payment of any instrument so endorsed.
Each Loan Party hereby constitutes Agent or Agent’s designee as such Loan Party’s attorney with
power (i) to endorse such Loan Party’s name upon any notes, acceptances, checks, drafts, money
orders or other evidences of payment or Collateral; (ii) to sign such Loan Party’s name on any
invoice or bill of lading relating to any of the Receivables, drafts against Customers, assignments
and verifications of Receivables; (iii) to send verifications of Receivables to any Customer; (iv)
to sign such Loan Party’s name on all financing statements or any other documents or instruments

things necessary to carry out this Agreement. All acts of said attorney or designee are hereby
ratified and approved, and said attorney or designee shall not be liable for any acts of omission
or commission nor for any error of judgment or mistake of fact or of law, unless done maliciously
or with gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction
in a final non-appealable judgment); this power being coupled with an interest is irrevocable while
any of the Obligations remain unpaid. Agent shall have the right at any time following the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default or Default, to change the address for
delivery of mail addressed to any Loan Party to such address as Agent may designate and to receive,
open and dispose of all mail addressed to any Loan Party.

47

 

          (g) No Liability. Neither Agent nor any Lender shall, under any circumstances or in
any event whatsoever, have any liability for any error or omission or delay of any kind occurring
in the settlement, collection or payment of any of the Receivables or any instrument received in
payment thereof, or for any damage resulting therefrom. Following the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default or Default, Agent may, without notice or consent from any Loan
Party, sue upon or otherwise collect, extend the time of payment of, compromise or settle for cash,
credit or upon any terms any of the Receivables or any other securities, instruments or insurance
applicable thereto and/or release any obligor thereof. Agent is authorized and empowered to
accept, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default or Default, the
return of the goods represented by any of the Receivables, without notice to or consent by any Loan
Party, all without discharging or in any way affecting any Loan Party’s liability hereunder.

          (h) Establishment of a Lockbox Account, Dominion Account. All proceeds of Collateral
shall be deposited by Loan Parties into either (i) a lockbox account, dominion account or such
other “blocked account” (“Blocked Accounts”) established at a bank or banks (each such bank, a
“Blocked Account Bank”) pursuant to an arrangement with such Blocked Account Bank as may be
selected by Borrowing Agent and be acceptable to Agent or (ii) depository accounts (“Depository
Accounts”) established at the Agent for the deposit of such proceeds. Each applicable Loan Party,
Agent and each Blocked Account Bank shall enter into a deposit account control agreement in form
and substance satisfactory to Agent directing such Blocked Account Bank to transfer such funds so
deposited to Agent, either to any account maintained by Agent at said Blocked Account Bank or by
wire transfer to appropriate account(s) of Agent. All funds deposited in such Blocked Accounts
shall immediately become the property of Agent and Borrowing Agent shall obtain the agreement by
such Blocked Account Bank to waive any offset rights against the funds so deposited. Neither Agent
nor any Lender assumes any responsibility for such blocked account arrangement, including any claim
of accord and satisfaction or release with respect to deposits accepted by any Blocked Account Bank
thereunder. All deposit accounts and investment accounts of each Loan Party are set forth on
Schedule 4.15(h).

          (i) Adjustments. No Loan Party will, without Agent’s consent, compromise or adjust
any Receivables (or extend the time for payment thereof) or accept any returns of merchandise or
grant any additional discounts, allowances or credits thereon except for those compromises,
adjustments, returns, discounts, credits and allowances as have been heretofore customary in the
business of such Loan Party.

     4.16. Inventory. To the extent Inventory held for sale or lease has been produced by
any Loan Party, it has been and will be produced by such Loan Party in accordance with the Federal
Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, as amended, and all rules, regulations and orders thereunder.

     4.17. Maintenance of Equipment. The Equipment shall be maintained in good operating
condition and repair (reasonable wear and tear excepted) and all necessary replacements of and
repairs thereto shall be made so that the value and operating efficiency of the Equipment shall be
maintained and preserved. No Loan Party shall use or operate the Equipment in violation of any
law, statute, ordinance, code, rule or regulation. Each Loan Party shall have the right to sell
Equipment to the extent set forth in Section 4.3 hereof.

48

 

     4.18. Exculpation of Liability. Nothing herein contained shall be construed to
constitute Agent or any Lender as any Loan Party’s agent for any purpose whatsoever, nor shall
Agent or any Lender be responsible or liable for any shortage, discrepancy, damage, loss or
destruction of any part of the Collateral wherever the same may be located and regardless of the
cause thereof. Neither Agent nor any Lender, whether by anything herein or in any assignment or
otherwise, assume any of any Loan Party’s obligations under any contract or agreement assigned to
Agent or such Lender, and neither Agent nor any Lender shall be responsible in any way for the
performance by any Loan Party of any of the terms and conditions thereof.

     4.19. Environmental Matters.

          (a) Loan Parties shall ensure that the Real Property and all operations and businesses
conducted thereon remains in compliance with all Environmental Laws and they shall not place or
permit to be placed any Hazardous Substances on any Real Property except as permitted by Applicable
Law or appropriate governmental authorities.

          (b) Loan Parties shall establish and maintain a system to assure and monitor continued
compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws which system shall include periodic reviews of
such compliance.

          (c) Loan Parties shall (i) employ in connection with the use of the Real Property appropriate
technology necessary to maintain compliance with any applicable Environmental Laws and (ii) dispose
of any and all Hazardous Waste generated at the Real Property only at facilities and with carriers
that maintain valid permits under RCRA and any other applicable Environmental Laws. Loan Parties
shall use their best efforts to obtain certificates of disposal, such as hazardous waste manifest
receipts, from all treatment, transport, storage or disposal facilities or operators employed by
Loan Parties in connection with the transport or disposal of any Hazardous Waste generated at the
Real Property.

          (d) In the event any Loan Party obtains, gives or receives notice of any Release or threat of
Release of a reportable quantity of any Hazardous Substances at the Real Property (any such event
being hereinafter referred to as a “Hazardous Discharge”) or receives any notice of violation,
request for information or notification that it is potentially responsible for investigation or
cleanup of environmental conditions at the Real Property, demand letter or complaint, order,
citation, or other written notice with regard to any Hazardous Discharge or violation of
Environmental Laws affecting the Real Property or any Loan Party’s interest therein (any of the
foregoing is referred to herein as an “Environmental Complaint”) from any Person, including any
state agency responsible in whole or in part for environmental matters in the state in which the
Real Property is located or the United States Environmental Protection Agency (any such person or
entity hereinafter the “Authority”), then Borrowing Agent shall, within five (5) Business Days,
give written notice of same to Agent detailing facts and circumstances of which any Loan Party is
aware giving rise to the Hazardous Discharge or Environmental Complaint. Such information is to be
provided to allow Agent to protect its security interest in and Lien on the Real Property and the
Collateral and is not intended to create nor shall it create any obligation upon Agent or any
Lender with respect thereto.

          (e) Borrowing Agent shall promptly forward to Agent copies of any request for information,
notification of potential liability, demand letter relating to potential responsibility with
respect to the investigation or cleanup of Hazardous Substances at any other site owned, operated
or used by any Loan Party to dispose of Hazardous Substances and shall continue to forward copies
of correspondence between any Loan Party and the Authority regarding such claims to Agent until the
claim is settled. Borrowing Agent shall promptly forward to Agent copies of all documents and
reports concerning a Hazardous Discharge at the Real Property that any Loan Party is required to
file under any Environmental Laws. Such information is to be provided solely to allow Agent to
protect Agent’s security interest in and Lien on the Real Property and the Collateral.

          (f) Loan Parties shall respond promptly to any Hazardous Discharge or Environmental Complaint
and take all necessary action in order to safeguard the health of any Person and to avoid
subjecting the Collateral or Real Property to any Lien. If any Loan Party shall fail to respond
promptly to any Hazardous Discharge or Environmental Complaint or any Loan Party shall fail to
comply with any of the requirements of any Environmental Laws, Agent on behalf of Lenders may, but
without the obligation to do so, for the sole purpose of protecting Agent’s interest in the
Collateral: (A) give such notices or (B) enter onto the Real Property (or authorize third parties
to enter onto the Real Property) and take such actions as Agent (or such third parties as directed
by Agent) deem reasonably necessary or advisable, to clean up, remove, mitigate or otherwise deal
with any such Hazardous Discharge or Environmental Complaint. All reasonable costs and expenses
incurred by Agent and Lenders (or such third parties) in the exercise of any such rights, including
any sums paid in connection with any judicial or administrative investigation or proceedings, fines
and penalties, together with interest thereon from the date expended at the Default Rate for
Domestic Rate Loans constituting Revolving Advances shall be paid upon demand by Borrowers, and
until paid shall be added to and become a part of the Obligations secured by the Liens created by
the terms of this Agreement or any other agreement between Agent, any Lender and any Loan Party.

          (g) Promptly upon the written request of Agent from time to time, Loan Parties shall provide
Agent, at Loan Parties’ expense, with an environmental site assessment or environmental audit
report prepared by an environmental engineering firm acceptable in the reasonable opinion of Agent,
to assess with a reasonable degree of certainty the existence of a Hazardous Discharge and the
potential costs in connection with abatement, cleanup and removal of any Hazardous Substances found
on, under, at or within the Real Property. Any report or investigation of such Hazardous Discharge
proposed and acceptable to an appropriate Authority that is charged to oversee the clean-up of such
Hazardous Discharge shall be acceptable to Agent. If such estimates, individually or in the
aggregate, exceed $100,000, Agent shall have the right to require Loan Parties to post a bond,
letter of credit or other security reasonably satisfactory to Agent to secure payment of these
costs and expenses.

          (h) Loan Parties shall defend and indemnify Agent and Lenders and hold Agent, Lenders and
their respective employees, agents, directors and officers harmless from and against all loss,
liability, damage and expense, claims, costs, fines and penalties, including attorney’s fees,
suffered or incurred by Agent or Lenders under or on account of any Environmental Laws, including
the assertion of any Lien thereunder, with respect to any Hazardous Discharge, the presence of any
Hazardous Substances affecting the Real Property,

50

 

whether or not the same originates or emerges from the Real Property or any contiguous real
estate, including any loss of value of the Real Property as a result of the foregoing except to the
extent such loss, liability, damage and expense is attributable to any Hazardous Discharge
resulting from actions on the part of Agent or any Lender. Loan Parties’ obligations under this
Section 4.19 shall arise upon the discovery of the presence of any Hazardous Substances at the Real
Property, whether or not any federal, state, or local environmental agency has taken or threatened
any action in connection with the presence of any Hazardous Substances. Loan Parties’ obligation
and the indemnifications hereunder shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

          (i) For purposes of Section 4.19 and 5.7, all references to Real Property shall be deemed to
include all of each Loan Party’s right, title and interest in and to its owned and leased premises.

     4.20. Financing Statements. Except as respects the financing statements filed by
Agent, the financing statements described on Schedule 1.2 and the financing statements
filed by Laurus Master Fund, Ltd. to be terminated on the Closing Date, no financing statement
covering any of the Collateral or any proceeds thereof is on file in any public office.

XI. LENDERS’ RIGHTS AND REMEDIES AFTER DEFAULT.

     11.1. Rights and Remedies.

          (a) Upon the occurrence of (i) an Event of Default pursuant to Section 10.7 all Obligations
shall be immediately due and payable and this Agreement and the obligation of Lenders to make
Advances shall be deemed terminated; and, (ii) any of the other Events of Default and at any time
thereafter (such default not having previously been cured), at the option of Required Lenders all
Obligations shall be immediately due and payable and Lenders shall have the right to terminate this
Agreement and to terminate the obligation of Lenders to make Advances and (iii) a filing of a
petition against any Loan Party in any involuntary case under any state or federal bankruptcy laws,
all Obligations shall be immediately due and payable and the obligation of Lenders to make Advances
hereunder shall be terminated other than as may be required by an appropriate order of the
bankruptcy court having jurisdiction over such Loan Party. Upon the occurrence of any Event of
Default, Agent shall have the right to exercise any and all rights and remedies provided for
herein, under the Other Documents, under the Uniform Commercial Code and at law or equity
generally, including the right to foreclose the security interests granted herein and to realize
upon any Collateral by any available judicial procedure and/or to take possession of and sell any
or all of the Collateral with or without judicial process. Agent may enter any of any Loan Party’s
premises or other premises without legal process and without incurring liability to any Loan Party
therefor, and Agent may thereupon, or at any time thereafter, in its discretion without notice or
demand, take the Collateral and remove the same to such place as Agent may deem advisable and Agent
may require Loan Parties to make the Collateral available to Agent at a convenient place,
including, without limitation requiring Loan Parties to disassemble and re-assemble Collateral in
order to remove such Collateral to such place as Agent may deem advisable and convenient. With or
without having the Collateral at the time or place of sale, Agent may sell the Collateral, or any
part thereof, at public or private sale, at any time or place, in one or more sales, at such price
or prices, and upon such terms, either for

75

 

cash, credit or future delivery, as Agent may elect. Except as to that part of the Collateral
which is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a
recognized market, Agent shall give Loan Parties reasonable notification of such sale or sales, it
being agreed that in all events written notice mailed to Borrowing Agent at least ten (10) days
prior to such sale or sales is reasonable notification. At any public sale Agent or any Lender may
bid for and become the purchaser, and Agent, any Lender or any other purchaser at any such sale
thereafter shall hold the Collateral sold absolutely free from any claim or right of whatsoever
kind, including any equity of redemption and all such claims, rights and equities are hereby
expressly waived and released by each Loan Party. In connection with the exercise of the foregoing
remedies, including the sale of Inventory, Agent is granted a perpetual nonrevocable, royalty free,
nonexclusive license and Agent is granted permission to use all of each Loan Party’s (a)
trademarks, trade styles, trade names, patents, patent applications, copyrights, service marks,
licenses, franchises and other proprietary rights which are used or useful in connection with
Inventory for the purpose of marketing, advertising for sale and selling or otherwise disposing of
such Inventory and (b) Equipment for the purpose of completing the manufacture of unfinished goods.
The cash proceeds realized from the sale of any Collateral shall be applied to the Obligations in
the order set forth in Section 11.5 hereof. Noncash proceeds will only be applied to the
Obligations as they are converted into cash. If any deficiency shall arise, Loan Parties shall
remain liable to Agent and Lenders therefor.

          (b) To the extent that Applicable Law imposes duties on the Agent to exercise remedies in a
commercially reasonable manner, each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees that it is not commercially
unreasonable for the Agent (i) to fail to incur expenses reasonably deemed significant by the Agent
to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to complete raw material or work in process into
finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (ii) to fail to obtain third party
consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law,
to fail to obtain governmental or third party consents for the collection or disposition of
Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (iii) to fail to exercise collection remedies against
Customers or other Persons obligated on Collateral or to remove Liens on or any adverse claims
against Collateral, (iv) to exercise collection remedies against Customers and other Persons
obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection
specialists, (v) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general
circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (vi) to contact other
Persons, whether or not in the same business as any Loan Party, for expressions of interest in
acquiring all or any portion of such Collateral, (vii) to hire one or more professional auctioneers
to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized
nature, (viii) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing internet sites that provide for the auction of
assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capacity of doing so, or
that match buyers and sellers of assets, (ix) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail
markets, (x) to disclaim disposition warranties, such as title, possession or quiet enjoyment, (xi)
to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure the Agent against risks of loss, collection
or disposition of Collateral or to provide to the Agent a guaranteed return from the collection or
disposition of Collateral, or (xii) to the extent deemed appropriate by the Agent, to obtain the
services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist the
Agent in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. Each Loan Party acknowledges that
the purpose of this Section 11.1(b) is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or
omissions by the Agent would not be commercially unreasonable in the Agent’s exercise of

76

 

remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Agent shall not be
deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this Section 11.1(b).
Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 11.1(b) shall be construed
to grant any rights to any Loan Party or to impose any duties on Agent that would not have been
granted or imposed by this Agreement or by Applicable Law in the absence of this Section 11.1(b).

     11.2. Agent’s Discretion. Agent shall have the right in its sole discretion to
determine which rights, Liens, security interests or remedies Agent may at any time pursue,
relinquish, subordinate, or modify or to take any other action with respect thereto and such
determination will not in any way modify or affect any of Agent’s or Lenders’ rights hereunder.

     11.3. Setoff. Subject to Section 14.12, in addition to any other rights which Agent
or any Lender may have under Applicable Law, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder,
Agent and such Lender shall have a right, immediately and without notice of any kind, to apply any
Loan Party’s property held by Agent and such Lender to reduce the Obligations.

     11.4. Rights and Remedies not Exclusive. The enumeration of the foregoing rights and
remedies is not intended to be exhaustive and the exercise of any rights or remedy shall not
preclude the exercise of any other right or remedies provided for herein or otherwise provided by
law, all of which shall be cumulative and not alternative.

     11.5. Allocation of Payments After Event of Default. Notwithstanding any other
provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an
Event of Default, all amounts collected or received by the Agent on account of the Obligations or
any other amounts outstanding under any of the Other Documents or in respect of the Collateral may,
at Agent’s discretion, be paid over or delivered as follows:

          FIRST, to the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable
attorneys’ fees) of the Agent in connection with enforcing its rights and the rights of the Lenders
under this Agreement and the Other Documents and any protective advances made by the Agent with
respect to the Collateral under or pursuant to the terms of this Agreement;

          SECOND, to payment of any fees owed to the Agent;

          THIRD, to the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable
attorneys’ fees) of each of the Lenders to the extent owing to such Lender pursuant to the terms of
this Agreement;

          FOURTH, to the payment of all of the Obligations consisting of accrued fees and interest;

          FIFTH, to the payment of the outstanding principal amount of the Obligations (including the
payment or cash collateralization of any outstanding Letters of Credit);

77

 

          SIXTH, to all other Obligations and other obligations which shall have become due and payable
under the Other Documents or otherwise and not repaid pursuant to clauses “FIRST” through “FIFTH”
above; and

          SEVENTH, to the payment of the surplus, if any, to whoever may be lawfully entitled to receive
such surplus.

          In carrying out the foregoing, (i) amounts received shall be applied in the numerical order
provided until exhausted prior to application to the next succeeding category; (ii) each of the
Lenders shall receive (so long as it is not a Defaulting Lender) an amount equal to its pro rata
share (based on the proportion that the then outstanding Advances held by such Lender bears to the
aggregate then outstanding Advances) of amounts available to be applied pursuant to clauses
“FOURTH”, “FIFTH” and “SIXTH” above; and (iii) to the extent that any amounts available for
distribution pursuant to clause “FIFTH” above are attributable to the issued but undrawn amount of
outstanding Letters of Credit, such amounts shall be held by the Agent in a cash collateral account
and applied (A) first, to reimburse the Issuer from time to time for any drawings under such
Letters of Credit and (B) then, following the expiration of all Letters of Credit, to all other
obligations of the types described in clauses “FIFTH” and “SIXTH” above in the manner provided in
this Section 11.5.

XII. WAIVERS AND JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS.

     12.1. Waiver of Notice. Each Loan Party hereby waives notice of non-payment of any of
the Receivables, demand, presentment, protest and notice thereof with respect to any and all
instruments, notice of acceptance hereof, notice of loans or advances made, credit extended,
Collateral received or delivered, or any other action taken in reliance hereon, and all other
demands and notices of any description, except such as are expressly provided for herein.

     12.2. Delay. No delay or omission on Agent’s or any Lender’s part in exercising any
right, remedy or option shall operate as a waiver of such or any other right, remedy or option or
of any Default or Event of Default.

     12.3. Jury Waiver. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO
TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION (A) ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR

THEM WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT OR AGREEMENT EXECUTED OR
DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH, OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO OR THERETO IN EACH CASE
WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE
AND EACH PARTY HEREBY CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE
DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY, AND THAT ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL
COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION WITH ANY COURT AS

78

 

WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENTS OF THE PARTIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL
BY JURY.

XIII. EFFECTIVE DATE AND TERMINATION.

upon the respective successors and permitted assigns of each Loan Party, Agent and each Lender,
shall become effective on the date hereof and shall continue in full force and effect until the
earlier of (x) June 30, 2011, or (y) ninety-one (91) days prior to the final stated maturity of the
Subordinated Notes (the “Term”) unless sooner terminated as herein provided. Loan Parties

operative until all transactions entered into, rights or interests created or Obligations have been
fully and indefeasibly paid, disposed of, concluded or liquidated. The security interests, Liens
and rights granted to Agent and Lenders hereunder and the financing statements filed hereunder
shall continue in full force and effect, notwithstanding the termination of this Agreement or the

Party waives any rights which it may have under the Uniform Commercial Code to demand the filing of
termination statements with respect to the Collateral, and Agent shall not be required to send such
termination statements to each Loan Party, or to file them with any filing office, unless and until
this Agreement shall have been terminated in accordance with its terms and all Obligations have
been indefeasibly paid in full in immediately available funds. All representations, warranties,
covenants, waivers and agreements contained herein shall survive termination hereof until all
Obligations are indefeasibly paid and performed in full.

XIV. REGARDING AGENT.

     14.1. Appointment. Each Lender hereby designates PNC to act as Agent for such Lender
under this Agreement and the Other Documents. Each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes Agent to
take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the Other Documents and
to exercise such powers and to perform such duties hereunder and

79

 

thereunder as are specifically delegated to or required of Agent by the terms hereof and
thereof and such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto and Agent shall hold all
Collateral, payments of principal and interest, fees (except the fees set forth in Sections 3.3(a)
and 3.4), charges and collections (without giving effect to any collection days) received pursuant
to this Agreement, for the ratable benefit of Lenders. Agent may perform any of its duties
hereunder by or through its agents or employees. As to any matters not expressly provided for by
this Agreement (including collection of the Note) Agent shall not be required to exercise any
discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be
fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Required
Lenders, and such instructions shall be binding; provided, however, that Agent shall not be
required to take any action which exposes Agent to liability or which is contrary to this Agreement
or the Other Documents or Applicable Law unless Agent is furnished with an indemnification
reasonably satisfactory to Agent with respect thereto.

     14.2. Nature of Duties. Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities except those
expressly set forth in this Agreement and the Other Documents. Neither Agent nor any of its
officers, directors, employees or agents shall be (i) liable for any action taken or omitted by
them as such hereunder or in connection herewith, unless caused by their gross (not mere)
negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final
non-appealable judgment), or (ii) responsible in any manner for any recitals, statements,
representations or warranties made by any Loan Party or any officer thereof contained in this
Agreement, or in any of the Other Documents or in any certificate, report, statement or other
document referred to or provided for in, or received by Agent under or in connection with, this
Agreement or any of the Other Documents or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, due
execution, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement, or any of the Other Documents or for
any failure of any Loan Party to perform its obligations hereunder. Agent shall not be under any
obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of
the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any of the Other Documents, or to
inspect the properties, books or records of any Loan Party. The duties of Agent as respects the
Advances to Borrowers shall be mechanical and administrative in nature; Agent shall not have by
reason of this Agreement a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender; and nothing in this
Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon Agent
any obligations in respect of this Agreement except as expressly set forth herein.

     14.3. Lack of Reliance on Agent and Resignation. Independently and without reliance
upon Agent or any other Lender, each Lender has made and shall continue to make (i) its own
independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of each Loan Party and each
Guarantor in connection with the making and the continuance of the Advances hereunder and the
taking or not taking of any action in connection herewith, and (ii) its own appraisal of the
creditworthiness of each Loan Party. Agent shall have no duty or responsibility, either initially
or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect
thereto, whether coming into its possession before making of the Advances or at any time or times
thereafter except as shall be provided by any Loan Party pursuant to the terms hereof. Agent shall
not be responsible to any Lender for any recitals, statements, information, representations or
warranties herein or in any agreement, document, certificate or a statement delivered in connection
with or for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity,

80

 

enforceability, collectibility or sufficiency of this Agreement or any Other Document, or of
the financial condition of any Loan Party, or be required to make any inquiry concerning either the
performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Agreement, the
Note, the Other Documents or the financial condition of any Loan Party, or the existence of any
Event of Default or any Default.

          Agent may resign on sixty (60) days’ written notice to each of Lenders and Borrowing Agent and
upon such resignation, the Required Lenders will promptly designate a successor Agent reasonably
satisfactory to Borrowers; provided that if the Subordinated Lender exercises it option
pursuant to Section 24 of the Intercreditor Agreement to purchase all of the Obligations from
Lenders, then Agent may resign by written notice to each of Lenders and Borrowing Agent, such
resignation to become effective immediately upon the closing of the purchase of the Obligations by
the Subordinated Lender and upon such resignation, the Subordinated Lender will have the right to
designate a successor Agent.

          Any such successor Agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of Agent, and the term
“Agent” shall mean such successor agent effective upon its appointment, and the former Agent’s
rights, powers and duties as Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on
the part of such former Agent. After any Agent’s resignation as Agent, the provisions of this
Article XIV shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while
it was Agent under this Agreement.

     14.4. Certain Rights of Agent. If Agent shall request instructions from Lenders with
respect to any act or action (including failure to act) in connection with this Agreement or any
Other Document, Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such act or taking such action unless and
until Agent shall have received instructions from the Required Lenders; and Agent shall not incur
liability to any Person by reason of so refraining. Without limiting the foregoing, Lenders shall
not have any right of action whatsoever against Agent as a result of its acting or refraining from
acting hereunder in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders.

     14.5. Reliance. Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in
relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, notice, statement, certificate, telex, teletype or
telecopier message, cablegram, order or other document or telephone message believed by it to be
genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper person or entity, and, with
respect to all legal matters pertaining to this Agreement and the Other Documents and its duties
hereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by it. Agent may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact
and shall not be liable for the default or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact
selected by Agent with reasonable care.

     14.6. Notice of Default. Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the
occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder or under the Other Documents, unless Agent
has received notice from a Lender or Borrowing Agent referring to this Agreement or the Other
Documents, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of
default”. In the event that Agent receives such a notice, Agent shall give notice thereof to
Lenders. Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be
reasonably directed by the Required Lenders; provided, that, unless and until Agent shall have
received such directions, Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or

81

 

refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall
deem advisable in the best interests of Lenders.

     14.7. Indemnification. To the extent Agent is not reimbursed and indemnified by Loan
Parties, each Lender will reimburse and indemnify Agent in proportion to its respective portion of
the Advances (or, if no Advances are outstanding, according to its Commitment Percentage), from and
against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments,
suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on,
incurred by or asserted against Agent in performing its duties hereunder, or in any way relating to
or arising out of this Agreement or any Other Document; provided that, Lenders shall not be liable
for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments,
suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from Agent’s gross (not mere) negligence or
willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable
judgment).

     14.8. Agent in its Individual Capacity. With respect to the obligation of Agent to
lend under this Agreement, the Advances made by it shall have the same rights and powers hereunder
as any other Lender and as if it were not performing the duties as Agent specified herein; and the
term “Lender” or any similar term shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include
Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender. Agent may engage in business with any Loan Party as
if it were not performing the duties specified herein, and may accept fees and other consideration
from any Loan Party for services in connection with this Agreement or otherwise without having to
account for the same to Lenders.

     14.9. Delivery of Documents. To the extent Agent receives financial statements
required under Sections 9.7, 9.8, 9.9, 9.12 and 9.13 or Borrowing Base Certificates from any Loan
Party pursuant to the terms of this Agreement which any Loan Party is not obligated to deliver to
each Lender, Agent will promptly furnish such documents and information to Lenders.

     14.10. Loan Parties’ Undertaking to Agent. Without prejudice to their respective
obligations to Lenders under the other provisions of this Agreement, each Loan Party hereby
undertakes with Agent to pay to Agent from time to time on demand all amounts from time to time due
and payable by it for the account of Agent or Lenders or any of them pursuant to this Agreement to
the extent not already paid. Any payment made pursuant to any such demand shall pro tanto satisfy
the relevant Loan Party’s obligations to make payments for the account of Lenders or the relevant
one or more of them pursuant to this Agreement.

     14.11. No Reliance on Agent’s Customer Identification Program. Each Lender
acknowledges and agrees that neither such Lender, nor any of its Affiliates, participants or
assignees, may rely on the Agent to carry out such Lender’s, Affiliate’s, participant’s or
assignee’s customer identification program, or other obligations required or imposed under or
pursuant to the USA PATRIOT Act or the regulations thereunder, including the regulations contained
in 31 CFR 103.121 (as hereafter amended or replaced, the “CIP Regulations”), or any other
Anti-Terrorism Law, including any programs involving any of the following items relating to or in
connection with any Loan Party, its Affiliates or its agents, this Agreement, the Other Documents
or the transactions hereunder or contemplated hereby: (1) any identity verification

82

 

procedures, (2) any record-keeping, (3) comparisons with government lists, (4) customer
notices or (5) other procedures required under the CIP Regulations or such other laws.

     14.12. Other Agreements. Each of the Lenders agrees that it shall not, without the
express consent of Agent, and that it shall, to the extent it is lawfully entitled to do so, upon
the request of Agent, set off against the Obligations, any amounts owing by such Lender to any Loan
Party or any deposit accounts of any Loan Party now or hereafter maintained with such Lender.
Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, each of the Lenders further agrees that
it shall not, unless specifically requested to do so by Agent, take any action to protect or
enforce its rights arising out of this Agreement or the Other Documents, it being the intent of
Lenders that any such action to protect or enforce rights under this Agreement and the Other
Documents shall be taken in concert and at the direction or with the consent of Agent or Required
Lenders.

XV. BORROWING AGENCY.

     15.1. Borrowing Agency Provisions.

          (a) Each Borrower hereby irrevocably designates Borrowing Agent to be its attorney and agent
and in such capacity to borrow, sign and endorse notes, and execute and deliver all instruments,
documents, writings and further assurances now or hereafter required hereunder, on behalf of such
Borrower or Borrowers, and hereby authorizes Agent to pay over or credit all loan proceeds
hereunder in accordance with the request of Borrowing Agent.

          (b) The handling of this credit facility as a co-borrowing facility with a borrowing agent in
the manner set forth in this Agreement is solely as an accommodation to Borrowers and at their
request. Neither Agent nor any Lender shall incur liability to Borrowers as a result thereof. To
induce Agent and Lenders to do so and in consideration thereof, each Borrower hereby indemnifies
Agent and each Lender and holds Agent and each Lender harmless from and against any and all
liabilities, expenses, losses, damages and claims of damage or injury asserted against Agent or any
Lender by any Person arising from or incurred by reason of the handling of the financing
arrangements of Borrowers as provided herein, reliance by Agent or any Lender on any request or
instruction from Borrowing Agent or any other action taken by Agent or any Lender with respect to
this Section 15.1 except due to willful misconduct or gross (not mere) negligence by the
indemnified party (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable
judgment).

          (c) All Obligations shall be joint and several, and each Borrower shall make payment upon the
maturity of the Obligations by acceleration or otherwise, and such obligation and liability on the
part of each Borrower shall in no way be affected by any extensions, renewals and forbearance
granted to Agent or any Lender to any Borrower, failure of Agent or any Lender to give any Borrower
notice of borrowing or any other notice, any failure of Agent or any Lender to pursue or preserve
its rights against any Borrower, the release by Agent or any Lender of any Collateral now or
thereafter acquired from any Borrower, and such agreement by each Borrower to pay upon any notice
issued pursuant thereto is unconditional and unaffected by prior recourse by Agent or any Lender to
the other Borrowers or any Collateral for such Borrower’s Obligations or the lack thereof. Each
Borrower waives all suretyship defenses.

83

 

     15.2. Waiver of Subrogation. Each Borrower expressly waives any and all rights of
subrogation, reimbursement, indemnity, exoneration, contribution of any other claim which such
Borrower may now or hereafter have against the other Borrowers or other Person directly or
contingently liable for the Obligations hereunder, or against or with respect to the other
Borrowers’ property (including, without limitation, any property which is Collateral for the
Obligations), arising from the existence or performance of this Agreement, until termination of
this Agreement and repayment in full of the Obligations.

XVI. MISCELLANEOUS.

     16.1. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of New York applied to contracts to be performed wholly within the State
of New York. Any judicial proceeding brought by or against any Loan Party with respect to any of
the Obligations, this Agreement, the Other Documents or any related agreement may be brought in any
court of competent jurisdiction in the State of New York, United States of America, and, by
execution and delivery of this Agreement, each Loan Party accepts for itself and in connection with
its properties, generally and unconditionally, the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the aforesaid
courts, and irrevocably agrees to be bound by any judgment rendered thereby in connection with this
Agreement. Each Loan Party hereby waives personal service of any and all process upon it and
consents that all such service of process may be made by registered mail (return receipt requested)
directed to Borrowing Agent at its address set forth in Section 16.6 and service so made shall be
deemed completed five (5) days after the same shall have been so deposited in the mails of the
United States of America, or, at the Agent’s option, by service upon Borrowing Agent which each
Loan Party irrevocably appoints as such Loan Party’s Agent for the purpose of accepting service
within the State of New York. Nothing herein shall affect the right to serve process in any manner
permitted by law or shall limit the right of Agent or any Lender to bring proceedings against any
Loan Party in the courts of any other jurisdiction. Each Loan Party waives any objection to
jurisdiction and venue of any action instituted hereunder and shall not assert any defense based on
lack of jurisdiction or venue or based upon forum non conveniens. Each Loan Party waives the right
to remove any judicial proceeding brought against such Loan Party in any state court to any federal
court. Any judicial proceeding by any Loan Party against Agent or any Lender involving, directly
or indirectly, any matter or claim in any way arising out of, related to or connected with this
Agreement or any related agreement, shall be brought only in a federal or state court located in
the County of New York, State of New York.

     16.2. Entire Understanding.

          (a) This Agreement and the documents executed concurrently herewith contain the entire
understanding between each Loan Party, Agent and each Lender and supersedes all prior agreements
and understandings, if any, relating to the subject matter hereof. Any promises, representations,
warranties or guarantees not herein contained and hereinafter made shall have no force and effect
unless in writing, signed by each Loan Party’s, Agent’s and each Lender’s respective officers.
Neither this Agreement nor any portion or provisions hereof may be changed, modified, amended,
waived, supplemented, discharged, cancelled or terminated orally or by any course of dealing, or in
any manner other than by an agreement in writing, signed by the party to be charged. Each Loan
Party acknowledges that it has been advised by

84

 

counsel in connection with the execution of this Agreement and Other Documents and is not
relying upon oral representations or statements inconsistent with the terms and provisions of this
Agreement.

          (b) The Required Lenders, Agent with the consent in writing of the Required Lenders, and Loan
Parties may, subject to the provisions of this Section 16.2 (b), from time to time enter into
written supplemental agreements to this Agreement or the Other Documents executed by Loan Parties,
for the purpose of adding or deleting any provisions or otherwise changing, varying or waiving in
any manner the rights of Lenders, Agent or Loan Parties thereunder or the conditions, provisions or
terms thereof or waiving any Event of Default thereunder, but only to the extent specified in such
written agreements; provided, however, that no such supplemental agreement shall, without the
consent of all Lenders:

               (i) increase the Commitment Percentage, the maximum dollar commitment of any Lender or the
Maximum Revolving Advance Amount.

               (ii) extend the maturity of any Note or the due date for any amount payable hereunder, or
decrease the rate of interest or reduce any fee payable by Borrowers to Lenders pursuant to this
Agreement.

               (iii) alter the definition of the term Required Lenders or alter, amend or modify this Section
16.2(b).

               (iv) release any Collateral during any calendar year (other than in accordance with the
provisions of this Agreement) having an aggregate value in excess of $500,000.

               (v) change the rights and duties of Agent.

               (vi) permit any Revolving Advance to be made if after giving effect thereto the total of
Revolving Advances outstanding hereunder would exceed the Formula Amount for more than sixty (30)
consecutive Business Days or exceed one hundred and five percent (105%) of the Formula Amount.

               (vii) increase the Advance Rates above the Advance Rates in effect on the Closing Date.

               (viii) release any Guarantor.

          Any such supplemental agreement shall apply equally to each Lender and shall be binding upon
each Loan Party, Lenders and Agent and all future holders of the Obligations. In the case of any
waiver, Loan Parties, Agent and Lenders shall be restored to their former positions and rights, and
any Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing, but no waiver of a
specific Event of Default shall extend to any subsequent Event of Default (whether or not the
subsequent Event of Default is the same as the Event of Default which was waived), or impair any
right consequent thereon.

85

 

          In the event that Agent requests the consent of a Lender pursuant to this Section 16.2 and
such consent is denied, then PNC may, at its option, require such Lender to assign its interest in
the Advances to PNC or to another Lender or to any other Person designated by the Agent (the
“Designated Lender”), for a price equal to (i) the then outstanding principal amount thereof plus
(ii) accrued and unpaid interest and fees due such Lender, which interest and fees shall be paid
when collected from Borrowers. In the event PNC elects to require any Lender to assign its
interest to PNC or to the Designated Lender, PNC will so notify such Lender in writing within forty
five (45) days following such Lender’s denial, and such Lender will assign its interest to PNC or
the Designated Lender no later than five (5) days following receipt of such notice pursuant to a
Commitment Transfer Supplement executed by such Lender, PNC or the Designated Lender, as
appropriate, and Agent.

          Notwithstanding (a) the existence of a Default or an Event of Default, (b) that any of the
other applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 8.2 hereof have not been satisfied or
(c) any other provision of this Agreement, Agent may at its discretion and without the consent of
the Required Lenders, voluntarily permit the sum of the outstanding Revolving Advances and the
Maximum Undrawn Amount at any time to exceed the Formula Amount hereof at such time (such sum, the
“Overadvance Threshold Amount”) by up to ten percent (10%) of the Formula Amount for up to thirty
(30) consecutive Business Days (the “Out-of-Formula Loans”); provided, that, such
outstanding Advances do not exceed the Maximum Revolving Advance Amount. If Agent is willing in
its sole and absolute discretion to make such Out-of-Formula Loans, such Out-of-Formula Loans shall
be payable on demand and shall bear interest at the Default Rate for Revolving Advances consisting
of Domestic Rate Loans; provided that, if Lenders do make Out-of-Formula Loans, neither Agent nor
Lenders shall be deemed thereby to have changed the limits of Section 2.1(a). For purposes of this
paragraph, the discretion granted to Agent hereunder shall not preclude involuntary overadvances
that may result from time to time due to the fact that the Formula Amount or the Overadvance
Threshold Amount was unintentionally exceeded for any reason, including, but not limited to,
Collateral previously deemed to be either “Eligible Receivables” or “Eligible Inventory”, as
applicable, becomes ineligible, collections of Receivables applied to reduce outstanding Revolving
Advances are thereafter returned for insufficient funds or overadvances are made to protect or
preserve the Collateral. In the event Agent involuntarily permits the outstanding Revolving
Advances to exceed the Formula Amount or Overadvance Threshold Amount by more than ten percent
(10%), Agent shall use its efforts to have Borrowers decrease such excess in as expeditious a
manner as is practicable under the circumstances and not inconsistent with the reason for such
excess. Revolving Advances made after Agent has determined the existence of involuntary
overadvances shall be deemed to be involuntary overadvances and shall be decreased in accordance
with the preceding sentence.

          In addition to (and not in substitution of) the discretionary Revolving Advances permitted
above in this Section 16.2, the Agent is hereby authorized by Borrowers and the Lenders, from time
to time in the Agent’s sole discretion, (A) after the occurrence and during the continuation of a
Default or an Event of Default, or (B) at any time that any of the other applicable conditions
precedent set forth in Section 8.2 hereof have not been satisfied, to make Revolving Advances to
Borrowers on behalf of the Lenders which the Agent, in its reasonable business judgment, deems
necessary or desirable (a) to preserve or protect the Collateral, or any portion thereof, (b) to
enhance the likelihood of, or maximize the amount of, repayment of the

86

 

Advances and other Obligations, or (c) to pay any other amount chargeable to Borrowers
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; provided, that at any time after giving effect to any such
Revolving Advances the outstanding Revolving Advances do not exceed one hundred and ten percent
(110%) of the Formula Amount.

     16.3. Successors and Assigns; Participations; New Lenders.

          (a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Loan Parties, Agent, each
Lender, all future holders of the Obligations and their respective successors and assigns, except
that no Loan Party may assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement
without the prior written consent of Agent and each Lender.

          (b) Each Loan Party acknowledges that in the regular course of commercial banking business one
or more Lenders may at any time and from time to time sell participating interests in the Advances
to other financial institutions (each such transferee or purchaser of a participating interest, a
“Participant”). Each Participant may exercise all rights of payment (including rights of set-off)
with respect to the portion of such Advances held by it or other Obligations payable hereunder as
fully as if such Participant were the direct holder thereof provided that Loan Parties shall not be
required to pay to any Participant more than the amount which it would have been required to pay to
Lender which granted an interest in its Advances or other Obligations payable hereunder to such
Participant had such Lender retained such interest in the Advances hereunder or other Obligations
payable hereunder and in no event shall Loan Parties be required to pay any such amount arising
from the same circumstances and with respect to the same Advances or other Obligations payable
hereunder to both such Lender and such Participant. Each Loan Party hereby grants to any
Participant a continuing security interest in any deposits, moneys or other property actually or
constructively held by such Participant as security for the Participant’s interest in the Advances.

          (c) Any Lender, with the consent of Agent which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed,
may sell, assign or transfer all or any part of its rights and obligations under or relating to
Revolving Advances under this Agreement and the Other Documents to one or more additional banks or
financial institutions and one or more additional banks or financial institutions may commit to
make Advances hereunder (each a “Purchasing Lender”), in minimum amounts of not less than
$1,000,000, pursuant to a Commitment Transfer Supplement, executed by a Purchasing Lender, the
transferor Lender, and Agent and delivered to Agent for recording. Upon such execution, delivery,
acceptance and recording, from and after the transfer effective date determined pursuant to such
Commitment Transfer Supplement, (i) Purchasing Lender thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to
the extent provided in such Commitment Transfer Supplement, have the rights and obligations of a
Lender thereunder with a Commitment Percentage as set forth therein, and (ii) the transferor Lender
thereunder shall, to the extent provided in such Commitment Transfer Supplement, be released from
its obligations under this Agreement, the Commitment Transfer Supplement creating a novation for
that purpose. Such Commitment Transfer Supplement shall be deemed to amend this Agreement to the
extent, and only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of such Purchasing Lender and the
resulting adjustment of the Commitment Percentages arising from the purchase by such Purchasing
Lender of all or a portion of the rights and obligations of such transferor Lender under this
Agreement and the Other Documents. Each Loan Party hereby consents to the addition of such

87

 

Purchasing Lender and the resulting adjustment of the Commitment Percentages arising from the
purchase by such Purchasing Lender of all or a portion of the rights and obligations of such
transferor Lender under this Agreement and the Other Documents. Loan Parties shall execute and
deliver such further documents and do such further acts and things in order to effectuate the
foregoing.

          (d) Any Lender, with the consent of Agent which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed,
may directly or indirectly sell, assign or transfer all or any portion of its rights and
obligations under or relating to Revolving Advances under this Agreement and the Other Documents to
an entity, whether a corporation, partnership, trust, limited liability company or other entity
that (i) is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or otherwise investing in bank loans and similar
extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and (ii) is administered, serviced or
managed by the assigning Lender or an Affiliate of such Lender (a “Purchasing CLO” and together
with each Participant and Purchasing Lender, each a “Transferee” and collectively the
“Transferees”), pursuant to a Commitment Transfer Supplement modified as appropriate to reflect the
interest being assigned (“Modified Commitment Transfer Supplement”), executed by any intermediate
purchaser, the Purchasing CLO, the transferor Lender, and Agent as appropriate and delivered to
Agent for recording. Upon such execution and delivery, from and after the transfer effective date
determined pursuant to such Modified Commitment Transfer Supplement, (i) Purchasing CLO thereunder
shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such Modified Commitment Transfer
Supplement, have the rights and obligations of a Lender thereunder and (ii) the transferor Lender
thereunder shall, to the extent provided in such Modified Commitment Transfer Supplement, be
released from its obligations under this Agreement, the Modified Commitment Transfer Supplement
creating a novation for that purpose. Such Modified Commitment Transfer Supplement shall be deemed
to amend this Agreement to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of
such Purchasing CLO. Each Loan Party hereby consents to the addition of such Purchasing CLO. Loan
Parties shall execute and deliver such further documents and do such further acts and things in
order to effectuate the foregoing.

          (e) Agent shall maintain at its address a copy of each Commitment Transfer Supplement and
Modified Commitment Transfer Supplement delivered to it and a register (the “Register”) for the
recordation of the names and addresses of each Lender and the outstanding principal, accrued and
unpaid interest and other fees due hereunder. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in
the absence of manifest error, and each Loan Party, Agent and Lenders may treat each Person whose
name is recorded in the Register as the owner of the Advance recorded therein for the purposes of
this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by any Loan Party or any Lender at
any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. Agent shall receive a fee
in the amount of $3,500 payable by the applicable Purchasing Lender and/or Purchasing CLO upon the
effective date of each transfer or assignment (other than to an intermediate purchaser) to such
Purchasing Lender and/or Purchasing CLO.

          (f) Each Loan Party authorizes each Lender to disclose to any Transferee and any prospective
Transferee any and all financial information in such Lender’s possession concerning such Loan Party
which has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of such

88

 

Loan Party pursuant to this Agreement or in connection with such Lender’s credit evaluation of
such Loan Party.

     16.4. Application of Payments. Agent shall have the continuing and exclusive right to
apply or reverse and re-apply any payment and any and all proceeds of Collateral to any portion of
the Obligations. To the extent that any Loan Party makes a payment or Agent or any Lender receives
any payment or proceeds of the Collateral for any Loan Party’s benefit, which are subsequently
invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a
trustee, debtor in possession, receiver, custodian or any other party under any bankruptcy law,
common law or equitable cause, then, to such extent, the Obligations or part thereof intended to be
satisfied shall be revived and continue as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by
Agent or such Lender.

     16.5. Indemnity. Each Loan Party shall indemnify Agent, each Lender and each of their
respective officers, directors, Affiliates, attorneys, employees and agents from and against any
and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including fees and disbursements of
counsel) which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against Agent or any Lender in any
claim, litigation, proceeding or investigation instituted or conducted by any Governmental Body or
instrumentality or any other Person with respect to any aspect of, or any transaction contemplated
by, or referred to in, or any matter related to, this Agreement or the Other Documents, whether or
not Agent or any Lender is a party thereto, except to the extent that any of the foregoing arises
out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party being indemnified (as determined by
a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment). Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, this indemnity shall extend to any liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or
nature whatsoever (including fees and disbursements of counsel) asserted against or incurred by any
of the indemnitees described above in this Section 16.5 by any Person under any Environmental Laws
or similar laws by reason of any Loan Party’s or any other Person’s failure to comply with laws
applicable to solid or hazardous waste materials, including Hazardous Substances and Hazardous
Waste, or other Toxic Substances. Additionally, if any taxes (excluding taxes imposed upon or
measured solely by the net income of Agent and Lenders, but including any intangibles taxes, stamp
tax, recording tax or franchise tax) shall be payable by Agent, Lenders or Loan Parties on account
of the execution or delivery of this Agreement, or the execution, delivery, issuance or recording
of any of the Other Documents, or the creation or repayment of any of the Obligations hereunder, by
reason of any Applicable Law now or hereafter in effect, Loan Parties will pay (or will promptly
reimburse Agent and Lenders for payment of) all such taxes, including interest and penalties
thereon, and will indemnify and hold the indemnitees described above in this Section 16.5 harmless
from and against all liability in connection therewith.

     16.6. Notice. Any notice or request hereunder may be given to Borrowing Agent or any
Loan Party or to Agent or any Lender at their respective addresses set forth below or at such other

     16.7. Survival. The obligations of Borrowers and the other Loan Parties, as
applicable, under Sections 2.2(f), 3.7, 3.8, 3.9, 4.19(h), and 16.5 and the obligations of Lenders
under Section 14.7, shall survive termination of this Agreement and the Other Documents and payment
in full of the Obligations.

     16.8. Severability. If any part of this Agreement is contrary to, prohibited by, or
deemed invalid under Applicable Laws, such provision shall be inapplicable and deemed omitted to
the extent so contrary, prohibited or invalid, but the remainder hereof shall not be invalidated
thereby and shall be given effect so far as possible.

     16.9. Expenses. All costs and expenses including reasonable attorneys’ fees
(including the allocated costs of in house counsel) and disbursements incurred by Agent on its
behalf or on behalf of Lenders (a) in all efforts made to enforce payment of any Obligation or
effect collection of any Collateral, or (b) in connection with the entering into, modification,
amendment, administration and enforcement of this Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement or any
consents or waivers hereunder or thereunder and all related agreements, documents and instruments,
or (c) in instituting, maintaining, preserving, enforcing and foreclosing on Agent’s security
interest in or Lien on any of the Collateral, or maintaining, preserving or enforcing any of
Agent’s or any Lender’s rights hereunder or under the Subordination Agreement and under all related
agreements, documents and instruments, whether through judicial proceedings or

91

 

otherwise, or (d) in defending or prosecuting any actions or proceedings arising out of or
relating to Agent’s or any Lender’s transactions with any Loan Party or Subordinated Lender or (e)
in connection with any advice given to Agent or any Lender with respect to its rights and
obligations under this Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement and all related agreements, documents
and instruments, may be charged to Borrowers’ Account and shall be part of the Obligations.

     16.10. Injunctive Relief. Each Loan Party recognizes that, in the event any Loan
Party fails to perform, observe or discharge any of its obligations or liabilities under this
Agreement, or threatens to fail to perform, observe or discharge such obligations or liabilities,
any remedy at law may prove to be inadequate relief to Lenders; therefore, Agent, if Agent so
requests, shall be entitled to temporary and permanent injunctive relief in any such case without
the necessity of proving that actual damages are not an adequate remedy.

     16.11. Consequential Damages. Neither Agent nor any Lender, nor any agent or attorney
for any of them, shall be liable to any Loan Party (or any Affiliate of any such Person) for
indirect, punitive, exemplary or consequential damages arising from any breach of contract, tort or
other wrong relating to the establishment, administration or collection of the Obligations or as a
result of any transaction contemplated under this Agreement or any Other Document.

     16.12. Captions. The captions at various places in this Agreement are intended for
convenience only and do not constitute and shall not be interpreted as part of this Agreement.

     16.13. Counterparts; Facsimile Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in any
number of and by different parties hereto on separate counterparts, all of which, when so executed,
shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts shall constitute one and the same agreement.
Any signature delivered by a party by facsimile transmission shall be deemed to be an original
signature hereto.

     16.14. Construction. The parties acknowledge that each party and its counsel have
reviewed this Agreement and that the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities
are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of this
Agreement or any amendments, schedules or exhibits thereto.

     16.15. Confidentiality; Sharing Information. Agent, each Lender and each Transferee
shall hold all non-public information obtained by Agent, such Lender or such Transferee pursuant to
the requirements of this Agreement in accordance with Agent’s, such Lender’s and such Transferee’s
customary procedures for handling confidential information of this nature; provided, however,
Agent, each Lender and each Transferee may disclose such confidential information (a) to its
examiners, Affiliates, outside auditors, counsel and other professional advisors, (b) to Agent, any
Lender or to any prospective Transferees, and (c) as required or requested by any Governmental Body
or representative thereof or pursuant to legal process; provided, further that (i) unless
specifically prohibited by Applicable Law, Agent, each Lender and each Transferee shall use its
reasonable best efforts prior to disclosure thereof, to notify the applicable Loan Party of the
applicable request for disclosure of such non-public information (A) by a Governmental Body or
representative thereof (other than any such request in connection with an examination of the
financial condition of a Lender or a Transferee by such Governmental

92

 

Body) or (B) pursuant to legal process and (ii) in no event shall Agent, any Lender or any
Transferee be obligated to return any materials furnished by any Loan Party other than those
documents and instruments in possession of Agent or any Lender in order to perfect its Lien on the
Collateral once the Obligations have been paid in full and this Agreement has been terminated.
Each Loan Party acknowledges that from time to time financial advisory, investment banking and
other services may be offered or provided to such Loan Party or one or more of its Affiliates (in
connection with this Agreement or otherwise) by any Lender or by one or more Subsidiaries or
Affiliates of such Lender and each Loan Party hereby authorizes each Lender to share any
information delivered to such Lender by such Loan Party and its Subsidiaries pursuant to this
Agreement, or in connection with the decision of such Lender to enter into this Agreement, to any
such Subsidiary or Affiliate of such Lender, it being understood that any such Subsidiary or
Affiliate of any Lender receiving such information shall be bound by the provisions of this Section
16.15 as if it were a Lender hereunder. Such authorization shall survive the repayment of the
other Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

     16.16. Publicity. Each Loan Party and each Lender hereby authorizes Agent to make
appropriate announcements of the financial arrangement entered into among Loan Parties, Agent and
Lenders, including announcements which are commonly known as tombstones, in such publications and
to such selected parties as Agent shall in its sole and absolute discretion deem appropriate.

     16.17. Certifications From Banks and Participants; US PATRIOT Act. Each Lender or
assignee or participant of a Lender that is not incorporated under the Laws of the United States of
America or a state thereof (and is not excepted from the certification requirement contained in
Section 313 of the USA PATRIOT Act and the applicable regulations because it is both (i) an
affiliate of a depository institution or foreign bank that maintains a physical presence in the
United States or foreign country, and (ii) subject to supervision by a banking authority regulating
such affiliated depository institution or foreign bank) shall deliver to the Agent the
certification, or, if applicable, recertification, certifying that such Lender is not a “shell” and
certifying to other matters as required by Section 313 of the USA PATRIOT Act and the applicable
regulations: (1) within 10 days after the Closing Date, and (2) as such other times as are required
under the USA PATRIOT Act.

XVII. GUARANTY.

     17.1. Guaranty. Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally guarantees, as a primary
obligor and not merely as a surety, jointly and severally with each other Guarantor when and as
due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by notice of prepayment or otherwise, the due and
punctual performance of all Obligations of the Borrowers. Each payment made by any Guarantor
pursuant to this Guarantee shall be made in lawful money of the United States in immediately
available funds, (a) without set-off or counterclaim and (b) free and clear of and without
deduction or withholding for or on account of any present and future taxes, levies, imposts, stamp
taxes, duties, charges to tax, fees, deductions, withholdings and any conditions or restrictions
resulting in charges to tax and all penalties, interest and other payments on or in respect thereof
(except for charges based on the overall net income of Agent or a Lender) (“Tax” or “Taxes”).

93

 

     17.2. Waivers. Each Guarantor hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably
waives (i) promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance, notice of presentment of payment and any
other notice hereunder, (ii) demand of payment, protest, notice of dishonor or nonpayment, notice
of the present and future amount of the Obligations and any other notice with respect to the
Obligations, (iii) any requirement that the Agent or any Lender protect, secure, perfect or insure
any security interest or Lien or any property subject thereto or exhaust any right or take any
action against any other Loan Party, or any Person or any Collateral, (iv) any other action, event
or precondition to the enforcement hereof or the performance by each such Guarantor of the
Obligations, (v) all suretyship defenses and (vi) any defense arising by any lack of capacity or
authority or any other defense of any Loan Party or any notice, demand or defense by reason of
cessation from any cause of Obligations other than payment and performance in full of the
Obligations by the Loan Parties and any defense that any other guarantee or security was or was to
be obtained by Agent.

     17.3. No Defense. No invalidity, irregularity, voidableness, voidness or
unenforceability of this Agreement or any Other Document or any other agreement or instrument
relating thereto, or of all or any part of the Obligations or of any collateral security therefor
shall affect, impair or be a defense hereunder.

     17.4. Guaranty of Payment. The Guaranty hereunder is one of payment and performance,
not collection, and the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are independent of the Obligations
of the other Loan Parties, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against
any Guarantor to enforce the terms and conditions of this Article XVII, irrespective of whether any
action is brought against any other Loan Party or other Persons or whether any other Loan Party or
other Persons are joined in any such action or actions. Each Guarantor waives any right to require
that any resort be had by Agent or any Lender to any security held for payment of the Obligations
or to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of any Agent or any Lender in favor
of any Loan Party or any other Person. No election to proceed in one form of action or
proceedings, or against any Person, or on any Obligations, shall constitute a waiver of Agent’s
right to proceed in any other form of action or proceeding or against any other Person unless Agent
has expressed any such right in writing. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no
action or proceeding by Agent against any Loan Party under any document evidencing or securing
indebtedness of any Loan Party to Agent shall diminish the liability of any Guarantor hereunder,
except to the extent Agent receives actual payment on account of Obligations by such action or
proceeding, notwithstanding the effect of any such election, action or proceeding upon the right of
subrogation of any Guarantor in respect of any Loan Party.

     17.5. Indemnity. As an original and independent obligation under this Agreement, each
Guarantor shall (a) indemnify the Agent and each of the Lenders and keep the Agent and each of the
Lenders indemnified against all costs, losses, expenses and liabilities of whatever kind resulting
from the failure by any party to make due and punctual payment of any of the Obligations or
resulting from any of the Obligations being or becoming void, voidable, unenforceable or
ineffective against any Borrower (including, but without limitation, all legal and other costs,
charges and expenses incurred by Agent and each of the Lenders, or any of them in connection with
preserving or enforcing, or attempting to preserve or enforce, its rights under this Agreement);
and (b) pay on demand the amount of such costs, losses, expenses and

94

 

liabilities whether or not Agent or any of the Lenders have attempted to enforce any rights
against any Borrower or any other Person or otherwise, except to the extent that any of the
foregoing arises out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party being indemnified
as mutually agreed in writing by the party being indemnified and Guarantor, or as determined by a
final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

     17.6. Liabilities Absolute. The liability of each Guarantor hereunder shall be
absolute, unlimited and unconditional and shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation,
impairment, discharge or termination for any reason, including, without limitation, any claim of
waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any claim,
defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity,
illegality or unenforceability of any other Obligation or otherwise. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Guarantor shall not be discharged or impaired,
released, limited or otherwise affected by:

          (a) any change in the manner, place or terms of payment or performance, and/or any change or
extension of the time of payment or performance of, release, renewal or alteration of, or any new
agreements relating to any Obligation, any security therefor, or any liability incurred directly or
indirectly in respect thereof, or any rescission of, or amendment, waiver or other modification of,
or any consent to departure from, this Agreement or any Other Document, including any increase in
the Obligations resulting from the extension of additional credit to any Borrower or otherwise;

          (b) any sale, exchange, release, surrender, loss, abandonment, realization upon any property
by whomsoever at any time pledged or mortgaged to secure, or howsoever securing, all or any of the
Obligations, and/or any offset there against, or failure to perfect, or continue the perfection of,
any Lien in any such property, or delay in the perfection of any such Lien, or any amendment or
waiver of or consent to departure from any other guaranty for all or any of the Obligations;

          (c) the failure of the Agent or any Lender to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any
right or remedy against any Borrower or any other Loan Party or any other Person under the
provisions of this Agreement or any Other Document or any other document or instrument executed and
delivered in connection herewith or therewith;

          (d) any settlement or compromise of any Obligation, any security therefor or any liability
(including any of those hereunder) incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof,
and any subordination of the payment of all or any part thereof to the payment of any obligation
(whether due or not) of any Loan Party to creditors of any Loan Party other than any other Loan
Party;

          (e) any manner of application of Collateral, or proceeds thereof, to all or any of the
Obligations, or any manner of sale or other disposition of any Collateral for all or any of the
Obligations or any other assets of any Loan Party; and

          (f) any other agreements or circumstance of any nature whatsoever that may or might in any
manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor, or that might otherwise at

95

 

law or in equity constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Guaranty hereunder
and/or the obligations of any Guarantor, or a defense to, or discharge of, any Loan Party or any
other Person or party hereto or the Obligations or otherwise with respect to the Advances, Letters
of Credit or other financial accommodations to any Borrower pursuant to this Agreement and/or the
Other Documents.

     17.7. Waiver of Notice. The Agent shall have the right to do any of the above without
notice to or the consent of any Guarantor and each Guarantor expressly waives any right to notice
of, consent to, knowledge of and participation in any agreements relating to any of the above or
any other present or future event relating to Obligations whether under this Agreement or otherwise
or any right to challenge or question any of the above and waives any defenses of such Guarantor
which might arise as a result of such actions.

     17.8. Agent’s Discretion. Agent may at any time and from time to time (whether prior
to or after the revocation or termination of this Agreement) without the consent of, or notice to,
any Guarantor, and without incurring responsibility to any Guarantor or impairing or releasing the
Obligations, apply any sums by whomsoever paid or howsoever realized to any Obligations regardless
of what Obligations remain unpaid.

     17.9. Reinstatement.

          (a) The Guaranty provisions herein contained shall continue to be effective or be reinstated,
as the case may be, if claim is ever made upon the Agent or any Lender for repayment or recovery of
any amount or amounts received by such Person in payment or on account of any of the Obligations
and such Person repays all or part of said amount for any reason whatsoever, including, without
limitation, by reason of any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative body having
jurisdiction over such Person or the respective property of each, or any settlement or compromise
of any claim effected by such Person with any such claimant (including any Loan Party); and in such
event each Guarantor hereby agrees that any such judgment, decree, order, settlement or compromise
or other circumstances shall be binding upon such Guarantor, notwithstanding any revocation hereof
or the cancellation of any note or other instrument evidencing any Obligation, and each Guarantor
shall be and remain liable to the Agent and/or Lenders for the amount so repaid or recovered to the
same extent as if such amount had never originally been received by such Person(s).

          (b) Agent shall not be required to marshal any assets in favor of any Guarantor, or against or
in payment of Obligations.

          (c) No Guarantor shall be entitled to claim against any present or future security held by
Agent from any Person for Obligations in priority to or equally with any claim of Agent, or assert
any claim for any liability of any Loan Party to any Guarantor in priority to or equally with
claims of Agent for Obligations, and no Guarantor shall be entitled to compete with Agent with
respect to, or to advance any equal or prior claim to any security held by Agent for Obligations.

          (d) If any Loan Party makes any payment to Agent, which payment is wholly or partly
subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required

96

 

to be repaid to any Person under any federal or provincial statute or at common law or under
equitable principles, then to the extent of such payment, the Obligation intended to be paid shall
be revived and continued in full force and effect as if the payment had not been made, and the
resulting revived Obligation shall continue to be guaranteed, uninterrupted, by each Guarantor
hereunder.

          (e) All present and future monies payable by any Loan Party to any Guarantor, whether arising
out of a right of subrogation or otherwise, are assigned to Agent for its benefit and for the
ratable benefit of Lenders as security for such Guarantor’s liability to Agent and Lenders
hereunder and are postponed and subordinated to Agent’s prior right to payment in full of
Obligations. All monies received by any Guarantor from any Loan Party shall be held by such
Guarantor as agent and trustee for Agent. This assignment, postponement and subordination shall
only terminate when the Obligations are paid in full in cash and this Agreement is irrevocably
terminated.

          (f) Each Loan Party acknowledges this assignment, postponement and subordination and, except
as otherwise set forth herein, agrees to make no payments to any Guarantor without the prior
written consent of Agent. Each Loan Party agrees to give full effect to the provisions hereof.

     17.10. Action Upon Event of Default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance
of any Event of Default, the Agent may, and upon written request of the Required Lenders shall,
without notice to or demand upon any Loan Party or any other Person, declare any obligations of
such Guarantor hereunder immediately due and payable, and shall be entitled to enforce the
obligations of each Guarantor. Upon such declaration by the Agent, the Agent and Lenders are
hereby authorized at any time and from time to time to set off and apply any and all deposits
(general or special, time or demand, provisions or final) at any time held and other indebtedness
at any time owing by the Agent or Lenders to or for the credit or the account of any Guarantor
against any and all of the obligations of each Guarantor now or hereafter existing hereunder,
whether or not the Agent or Lenders shall have made any demand hereunder against any other Loan
Party and although such obligations may be contingent and unmatured. The rights of the Agent and
Lenders hereunder are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off)
which the Agent and Lenders may have. Upon such declaration by the Agent, with respect to any
claims (other than those claims referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph) of any
Guarantor against any Loan Party (the “Claims”), the Agent shall have the full right on the part of
the Agent in its own name or in the name of such Guarantor to collect and enforce such Claims by
legal action, proof of debt in bankruptcy or other liquidation proceedings, vote in any proceeding
for the arrangement of debts at any time proposed, or otherwise, the Agent and each of its officers
being hereby irrevocably constituted attorneys-in-fact for each Guarantor for the purpose of such
enforcement and for the purpose of endorsing in the name of each Guarantor any instrument for the
payment of money. Each Guarantor will receive as trustee for the Agent and will pay to the Agent
forthwith upon receipt thereof any amounts which such Guarantor may receive from any Loan Party on
account of the Claims. Each Guarantor agrees that at no time hereafter will any of the Claims be
represented by any notes, other negotiable instruments or writings, except and in such event they
shall either be made payable to the Agent, or if payable to any Guarantor, shall forthwith be
endorsed by such Guarantor to the Agent. Each Guarantor agrees that no payment on account of the
Claims or any

97

 

security interest therein shall be created, received, accepted or retained during the
continuance of any Event of Default nor shall any financing statement be filed with respect thereto
by any Guarantor.

     17.11. Statute of Limitations. Any acknowledgment or new promise, whether by payment
of principal or interest or otherwise and whether by any Loan Party or others (including any
Lenders) with respect to any of the Obligations shall, if the statute of limitations in favor of
any Guarantor against the Agent or Lenders shall have commenced to run, toll the running of such
statute of limitations and, if the period of such statute of limitations shall have expired,
prevent the operation of such statute of limitations.

     17.12. Interest. All amounts due, owing and unpaid from time to time by any Guarantor
hereunder shall bear interest at the interest rate per annum then chargeable with respect to
Domestic Rate Loans constituting Revolving Advances.

     17.13. Guarantor’s Investigation. Each Guarantor acknowledges receipt of a copy of
each of this Agreement and the Other Documents. Each Guarantor has made an independent
investigation of the Loan Parties and of the financial condition of the Loan Parties. Neither
Agent nor any Lender has made and neither Agent nor any Lender does make any representations or
warranties as to the income, expense, operation, finances or any other matter or thing affecting
any Loan Party nor has Agent or any Lender made any representations or warranties as to the amount
or nature of the Obligations of any Loan Party to which this Article XVII applies as specifically
herein set forth, nor has Agent or any Lender or any officer, agent or employee of Agent or any
Lender or any representative thereof, made any other oral representations, agreements or
commitments of any kind or nature, and each Guarantor hereby expressly acknowledges that no such
representations or warranties have been made and such Guarantor expressly disclaims reliance on any
such representations or warranties.

     17.14. Termination. The provisions of this Article XVII shall remain in effect until
the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all Obligations and irrevocable termination of this
Agreement.

98

On June 13, 2007, the shareholders of Digital Recorders, Inc. voted to amend the articles of
incorporation to change the name to DRI Corporation. Thereafter, on August 1, 2007, the
corporation formed Digital Recorders, Inc., as a subsidiary of the parent corporation (DRI
Corporation) from which the systems business operates.

On April 30, 2007, Digital Recorders, Inc. sold a wholly-owned subsidiary, Digital Audio
Corporation (“DAC”), for cash and a promissory note.

 

 

SCHEDULE 5.8(b)

LITIGATION

None; however, there is a disclosure in our Form 10-K under Risks Related to Human Resources and
Employment Relations (page 18). On April 1, 2006, DRI Corporation entered into a contractual
relationship with The Castleton Group (“Castleton”), a professional employment organization
(“PEO”), whereby Castleton provided payroll processing and personnel administrative services and
became the employer of record for all of DRI’s U.S.– based workforce, as well as that of 89 other
companies employing approximately 6,000 people. DRI received notice on January 2, 2008 that DRI’s
contractual relationship with Castleton was terminated effective November 30, 2007, which coincided
with the pay period end date of the final payroll processed by Castleton. Castleton had been deemed
insolvent by the North Carolina Department of Insurance and on December 22, 2007, Castleton filed
for Chapter 7 Bankruptcy protection in the Eastern District of North Carolina. Allegations exist
that Castleton failed to properly discharge its responsibilities to various government agencies,
pension companies and insurers (DRI only used Castleton for payroll, not any benefits). To
date, DRI is unable to obtain or estimate what obligations, if any, Castleton failed to perform as
the information is unavailable from the Bankruptcy Trustee or other source. DRI made all payments
required under its contract with Castleton to Castleton. No contact from any governmental agency
has been made regarding any potential or asserted liability of DRI Corporation. DRI filed a
protective claim for an undetermined amount in the Chapter 7 bankruptcy. DRI has also discussed
with its D & O insurer potential coverage under that policy for any losses that may arise in the
future; however, no formal claim has been made as DRI has been advised such would be premature
under the facts as they exist.
