Commitments of the applicable Class. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be
made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided that
the Commitments of the Lenders are several and no Lender shall be responsible for any other
Lender’s failure to make Loans as required.

          SECTION 2.02. Procedure for Borrowing. (a) The Borrower may borrow under the
Revolving Credit Commitments (subject to the limitations in Section 2.01(a)) and the
Borrower may borrow the Term B-1 Commitments by giving the Administrative Agent notice
substantially in the form of Exhibit B (a “Borrowing Request”), which notice must
be received by the Administrative Agent prior to (a) 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three Business
Days prior to the requested Borrowing Date, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, or (b) 11:00
a.m., New York City time, on the Business Day prior to the requested Borrowing Date, in the case of
an ABR Borrowing. The Borrowing Request from the Borrower for each Borrowing shall specify (i)
whether the requested Borrowing is to be a Revolving Credit Borrowing or a Term B-1 Borrowing, (ii)
the amount to be borrowed, (iii) the requested Borrowing Date (which must be the Amendment
Effective Date, in the case of a Term B-1 Borrowing), (iv) whether the Borrowing is to be of
Eurodollar Loans or ABR Loans, (v) if the Borrowing is to be of Eurodollar Loans, the length of the
initial Interest Period therefor, and (vi) the location and number of the Borrower’s account to
which funds are to be disbursed, which shall comply with the requirements of this Agreement. If no
election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified, then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR
Borrowing. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Eurodollar Borrowing,
then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected
an Interest Period of one month’s duration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all Borrowings on
the Original Effective Date shall be ABR Loans.

          (b) Each Borrowing shall be in a minimum aggregate principal amount of (i) in the case of a
Term B-1 Borrowing, $5.0 million or an integral multiple of $1.0 million in excess thereof or (ii)
in the case of a Revolving Credit Borrowing, $1.0 million or an integral multiple of $1.0 million
in excess thereof or, if less, the aggregate amount of the then Available Revolving Credit
Commitments.

          (c) Upon receipt of the Term B-1 Borrowing Request, the Administrative Agent shall promptly
notify each Term B-1 Lender of the aggregate amount of the Term B-1 Borrowing and of the amount of
such Term B-1 Lender’s pro rata portion thereof, which shall be based on their respective

-38-

 

Term B-1
Commitments. Each Term B-1 Lender will make the amount of its pro rata portion of the Term B-1
Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Borrower at the New York
office of the Administrative Agent specified in Section 10.01 prior to 10:00 a.m., New York
City time, on the Original Effective Date in funds immediately available to the Administrative
Agent. Amounts so received by the Administrative Agent will promptly be made available to the
Borrower by the Administrative Agent crediting the account of the Borrower on the books of such
office with the aggregate of the amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by the Term B-1
Lenders and in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent.

          (d) Upon receipt of a Revolving Credit Borrowing Request, the Administrative Agent shall
promptly notify each Revolving Lender of the aggregate amount of such Revolving Credit Borrowing
and of the amount of such Revolving Lender’s pro rata portion thereof, which shall be based on the
respective Available Revolving Credit Commitments of all the Revolving Lenders. Each Revolving
Lender will make the amount of its pro rata portion of each such Revolving Credit Borrowing
available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Borrower at the New York office of the
Administrative Agent specified in Section 10.01 prior to 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on
the Borrowing Date requested by the Borrower in funds immediately available to the Administrative
Agent. Amounts so received by the Administrative Agent will promptly be made available to the
Borrower by the Administrative Agent crediting the account of the Borrower on the books of such
office with the aggregate of the amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by the
Revolving Lenders and in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent; provided that
if on the Borrowing Date of any Revolving Loans to be made to the Borrower, any Swingline Loans
made to the Borrower or LC Disbursements for the account of the Borrower shall be then outstanding,
the proceeds of such Revolving Loans shall first be applied to pay in full such Swingline Loans or
LC Disbursements, with any remaining proceeds to be made available to the Borrower as provided
above; and provided further that ABR Revolving Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC
Disbursement as provided in Section 2.06(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent
to the Issuing Bank.

          SECTION 2.03. Conversion and Continuation Options for Loans. (a) The Borrower may
elect from time to time to convert (i) Eurodollar Loans to ABR Loans, by giving the Administrative
Agent prior notice of such election not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Business
Day prior to a requested conversion or (ii) ABR Loans to Eurodollar Loans by giving the
Administrative Agent prior notice of such election not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time,
three Business Days prior to a requested conversion; provided that if any such conversion of
Eurodollar Loans is made other than on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto, the
Borrower shall pay any amounts due to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.17 as a result of
such conversion. Any such notice of conversion to Eurodollar Loans shall specify the length of the
initial Interest Period or Interest Periods therefor. Upon receipt of any such notice the
Administrative Agent shall promptly notify
each Lender thereof. All or any part of the outstanding Eurodollar Loans or ABR Loans may be
converted as provided herein; provided that (i) no Loan may be converted into a Eurodollar
Loan when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (ii) no Loan may be
converted into a Eurodollar Loan after the date that is one month prior to the Revolving Credit
Maturity Date or the Term B-1 Loan Maturity Date, as applicable.

          (b) Any Eurodollar Loans may be continued as such upon the expiration of the then current
Interest Period with respect thereto by the Borrower giving prior notice to the Administrative
Agent, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days prior to a requested
continuation setting forth the length of the next Interest Period to be applicable to such Loans;
provided that no Eurodollar Loan may be continued as such (i) when any Default or Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing and (ii) after the date that is one month prior to the
Revolving Credit Maturity Date or the

-39-

 

Term B-1 Loan Maturity Date, as applicable; and provided,
further, that if the Borrower shall fail to give any required notice as described above in
this Section 2.03 or if such continuation is not permitted pursuant to the preceding
proviso, then such Loans shall be automatically converted to ABR Loans on the last day of such then
expiring Interest Period (in which case the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of such
conversion).

          (c) In connection with any Eurodollar Loans, there shall be no more than eight Interest
Periods outstanding at any time.

          (d) This Section shall not apply to Swingline Loans.

          SECTION 2.04. Swingline Loans. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the
Swingline Lender agrees to make swingline loans (individually, a “Swingline Loan” and
collectively, the “Swingline Loans”) to the Borrower from time to time during the Revolving
Credit Commitment Period in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.04,
provided that (i) the aggregate principal amount of all Swingline Loans shall not exceed
$20.0 million (the “Swingline Sublimit”) at any one time outstanding, (ii) the principal
amount of any borrowing of Swingline Loans may not exceed the aggregate amount of the Available
Revolving Credit Commitments of all Revolving Lenders immediately prior to such borrowing or result
in the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure then outstanding exceeding the Total Revolving Credit
Commitments then in effect, and (iii) in no event may Swingline Loans be borrowed hereunder if
(A)(x) a Default or Event of Default or Event of Termination shall have occurred and be continuing
and (y) such Default or Event of Default or Event of Termination shall not have been subsequently
cured or waived. Amounts borrowed under this Section 2.04 may be repaid and, up to but
excluding the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, reborrowed. All Swingline Loans shall at all times
be ABR Loans. The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent notice of any Swingline Loan
requested hereunder (which notice must be received by the Administrative Agent prior to 11:00 a.m.,
New York City time, on the requested Borrowing Date) specifying (A) the amount to be borrowed, and
(B) the requested Borrowing Date. Upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent shall
promptly notify the Swingline Lender of the aggregate amount of such borrowing. Not later than
2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Borrowing Date specified in such notice the Swingline Lender
shall make such Swingline Loan available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the
Borrower at the office of the Administrative Agent set forth in Section 10.01 in funds
immediately available to the Administrative Agent. Amounts so received by the Administrative Agent
will promptly be made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent crediting the account
of the Borrower on the books of such office with the amount made available to the Administrative
Agent by the Swingline Lender (or, in the case of a Swingline Loan made to finance the
reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.06(e), by remittance to the
Issuing
Bank) and in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent. Each Borrowing pursuant to
this Section 2.04 shall be in a minimum principal amount of $500,000 or an integral
multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof.

          (b) Notwithstanding the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default or Event of Termination
or noncompliance with the conditions precedent set forth in Article IV or the minimum
borrowing amounts specified in Section 2.02, if any Swingline Loan shall remain outstanding
at 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the fifth Business Day following the Borrowing Date thereof
and if by such time on such fifth Business Day the Administrative Agent shall have received neither
(i) a notice of borrowing delivered by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.02 requesting
that Revolving Loans be made pursuant to Section 2.01 on the immediately succeeding
Business Day in an amount at least equal to the aggregate principal amount of such Swingline Loan,
nor (ii) any other notice reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent indicating the
Borrower’s intent to repay such Swingline Loan on the immediately succeeding Business Day with
funds obtained from other sources, the Administrative Agent shall be deemed to

-40-

 

have received a
notice from the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.02 requesting that ABR Revolving Loans be
made pursuant to Section 2.01 on such immediately succeeding Business Day in an amount
equal to the amount of such Swingline Loan, and the procedures set forth in Section 2.02
shall be followed in making such ABR Revolving Loans; provided that for the purposes of
determining each Lender’s Commitment Percentage with respect to such Borrowing, the Swingline Loan
to be repaid with the proceeds of such Borrowing shall be deemed to not be outstanding. The
proceeds of such ABR Revolving Loans shall be applied to repay such Swingline Loan.

          (c) If, for any reason, ABR Revolving Loans may not be, or are not, made pursuant to paragraph
(b) of this Section 2.04 to repay any Swingline Loan as required by such paragraph,
effective on the date such ABR Revolving Loans would otherwise have been made, each Revolving
Lender severally, unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that it shall, without regard to the
occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, purchase a participating interest in such Swingline
Loan (“Unrefunded Swingline Loan”) in an amount equal to the amount of the ABR Revolving
Loan which would otherwise have been made pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section
2.04. Each Revolving Lender will immediately transfer to the Administrative Agent, in
immediately available funds, the amount of its participation, and the proceeds of such
participations shall be distributed by the Administrative Agent to the Swingline Lender. All
payments by the Revolving Lenders in respect of Unrefunded Swingline Loans and participations
therein shall be made in accordance with Section 2.13.

          (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Lender shall not have any obligation to acquire a
participation in a Swingline Loan pursuant to the foregoing paragraphs if a Default or Event of
Default or Event of Termination shall have occurred and be continuing at the time such Swingline
Loan was made and such Lender shall have notified the Swingline Lender in writing prior to the time
such Swingline Loan was made, that such Default or Event of Default or such Event of Termination
has occurred and that such Lender will not acquire participations in Swingline Loans made while
such Default or Event of Default or such Event of Termination is continuing.

          SECTION 2.05. Optional and Mandatory Prepayments of Loans; Repayments of Loans. (a)
The Borrower may at any time and from time to time prepay the Loans made to it (subject to
compliance with the terms of Section 2.17), in whole or in part, subject to Sections
2.05(e)(iii) and 2.05(g), upon irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent not later
than 12:00 noon, New York City time, two Business Days prior to the date of such prepayment,
specifying (i) the date and amount of prepayment, and (ii) the Class of Loans to be prepaid and
whether the prepayment is of Eurodollar Loans,
ABR Loans or a combination thereof (including in the case of Eurodollar Loans, the Borrowing
to which such prepayment is to be applied and, if of a combination thereof, the amount allocable to
each). Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each
relevant Lender thereof. If any such notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall be
due and payable on the date specified therein, together with accrued interest to such date on the
amount prepaid. Partial prepayments of Loans (other than Swingline Loans) shall be (a) in the case
of Term B-1 Borrowings, in an aggregate principal amount of $5.0 million or a whole multiple of
$1.0 million in excess thereof and (b) in the case of Revolving Credit Borrowings, in an aggregate
principal amount of $1.0 million or a whole multiple of $1.0 million in excess thereof (or in each
case, if less, the remaining outstanding principal amount thereof). Partial prepayments of
Swingline Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple of
$100,000 in excess thereof (or, if less, the remaining outstanding principal amount thereof).

          (b) In the event and on such occasion that the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure exceeds the
Total Revolving Credit Commitment, the Borrower shall prepay Revolving Credit Borrowings or
Swingline Borrowings (or, if no such Borrowings are outstanding, deposit cash collateral in the

-41-

 

account established with the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.06(j)) in an
aggregate amount equal to such excess.

          (c) (i) If the Parent Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries shall receive Net Proceeds from
any Asset Sale (other than the sale or issuance of Equity Interests of the Borrower), 100% of such
Net Proceeds shall be applied within two Business Days after receipt thereof toward the prepayment
of Term B-1 Loans or a prepayment of Revolving Loans as set forth in Section 2.05(e);
provided that (x) the Net Proceeds from Asset Sales permitted by Section 6.05 shall
not be required to be applied as provided herein on such date if and to the extent that (1) no
Event of Default then exists or would arise therefrom and (2) the Borrower delivers an officers’
certificate to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date of such Asset Sale stating that
such Net Proceeds shall be reinvested in Property used or usable in the business of the Borrower
and its Subsidiaries in each case within one year following the date of such Asset Sale (which
certificate shall set forth the estimates of the proceeds to be so expended), and (y) if all or any
portion of such Net Proceeds not so applied as provided herein is not so used within such one year
period, such remaining portion shall be applied on the last day of such period as specified in this
Section 2.05(c)(i); provided, further, if the Property subject to such
Asset Sale constituted Collateral under the Security Documents, then any capital assets purchased
with the Net Proceeds thereof pursuant to this subsection shall be mortgaged or pledged, as the
case may be, to the Collateral Agent, for its benefit and for the benefit of the other Secured
Parties in accordance with Section 5.11.

          (ii) If the Parent Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries shall receive proceeds from insurance
or condemnation recoveries in respect of any Destruction or any proceeds or awards in respect of
any Taking, 100% of the Net Proceeds thereof shall be applied immediately after receipt thereof
toward the prepayment of Term B-1 Loans or a prepayment of Revolving Loans as set forth in
Section 2.05(e) below; provided that (x) such Net Proceeds shall not be required to
be so applied to the extent that the Borrower has delivered an officers’ certificate to the
Administrative Agent promptly following the receipt of such Net Proceeds stating that such proceeds
shall be used to (1) repair, replace or restore any Property in respect of which such Net Proceeds
were paid or (2) fund the substitution of other Property used or usable in the business of the
Borrower or the Subsidiaries, in each case within one year following the date of the receipt of
such Net Proceeds, and (y) if all or any portion of such Net Proceeds not so applied as provided
herein is not so used within one year after the date of the receipt of such Net Proceeds, such
remaining portion shall be applied on the last day of such period as specified in this Section
2.05(c)(ii); provided, further, if the Property subject to such Destruction or
Taking constituted Collateral under the Security Documents, then any replacement or substitution
Property purchased with the Net Proceeds thereof
pursuant to this subsection shall be mortgaged or pledged, as the case may be, to the
Collateral Agent, for its benefit and for the benefit of the other Secured Parties in accordance
with Section 5.11

          (iii) If the Parent Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries shall incur or permit the incurrence
of any Indebtedness (including pursuant to debt securities which are convertible into, or
exchangeable or exercisable for, any Equity Interest or Equity Rights) (other than Excluded Debt
Issuances) (each, a “Debt Incurrence”), 100% of the Net Proceeds thereof shall be applied
within two Business Days after receipt thereof toward the prepayment of the Loans in accordance
with Section 2.05(e).

          (iv) If, for any Excess Cash Flow Period, there shall be Excess Cash Flow for such Excess
Cash Flow Period, the Excess Cash Flow Percentage of such Excess Cash Flow shall be applied, not
later than 10 Business Days after the date financial statements with respect to the Fiscal Year
then ending are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(b), toward the prepayment
of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.05(e).

-42-

 

          (d) (i) The Borrower shall repay the Term B-1 Loans in consecutive quarterly installments on
the dates set forth below (each such day, an “Installment Payment Date”), commencing on
December 31, 2006, in an aggregate amount equal to the amount specified below for each such
Installment Payment Date.

          (ii) To the extent not previously paid, all Term B-1 Loans shall be due and payable on the Term
B-1 Loan Maturity Date.

          (e) (i) Mandatory prepayments of Loans made pursuant Section 2.05(c) will be applied
to the then outstanding Term B-1 Loans to reduce scheduled repayments with respect thereto required
under Section 2.05(d) on a pro rata basis among the repayments with respect
thereto remaining to be made on each Installment Payment Date.

          (ii) After all the then outstanding amounts under the Term B-1 Loans have been paid in full,
mandatory prepayments of Loans required by Section 2.05(c) shall be applied to repay the
outstanding Revolving Loans, which prepayment shall also result in the Revolving Credit Commitments
being reduced ratably among the Revolving Lenders in accordance with their respective applicable
Revolving Credit Commitments (provided that if the aggregate principal amount of Revolving
Loans and Swingline Loans then outstanding is less than the amount of such excess (because Letters
of Credit constitute

-43-

 

a portion thereof), the Borrower shall, to the extent of the balance of such
excess, replace outstanding Letters of Credit and/or deposit an amount in cash in a cash collateral
account established with the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties on terms
and conditions reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent).

          (iii) Optional prepayments of Loans shall be applied as elected by the Borrower;
provided that optional prepayments of Term B-1 Loans shall be allocated to reduce scheduled
prepayments with respect thereto under Section 2.05(d) on a pro rata basis
among the prepayments with respect thereto remaining to be paid on each Installment Payment Date.

          (f) If on any day on which Loans would otherwise be required to be prepaid pursuant to this
Section 2.05, but for the operation of this Section 2.05(f) (each a “Prepayment
Date”), the amount of such required prepayment exceeds the then outstanding aggregate principal
amount of ABR Loans which are of the Class required to be prepaid, and no Default or Event of
Default exists or is continuing, then on such Prepayment Date, (i) the Borrower shall deposit funds
into the Collateral Account in an amount equal to such excess, and only the outstanding ABR Loans
which are of the Class required to be prepaid shall be required to be prepaid on such Prepayment
Date, and (ii) on the last day of each Interest Period ending on or after such Prepayment Date in
effect with respect to a Eurodollar Loan which is of the Class required to be prepaid, the
Administrative Agent is irrevocably authorized and directed to apply funds from the Collateral
Account (and liquidate investments held in the Collateral Account as necessary) to prepay such
Eurodollar Loans for which the Interest Period is then ending to the extent funds are available in
the Collateral Account.

          SECTION 2.06. Letters of Credit.

          (a) General. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may
request the issuance of Letters of Credit for its own account, in a form reasonably acceptable to
the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time on the Original
Effective Date or during the Revolving Credit Commitment Period. In the event of any inconsistency
between the terms
and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit
application or other agreement submitted by the Borrower to, or entered into by the Borrower with,
the Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall
control.

          (b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. To request
the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter
of Credit), the Borrower shall hand deliver or facsimile (or transmit by electronic communication,
if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the Issuing Bank) to the Issuing Bank and the
Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal
or extension) a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of
Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying the date of issuance, amendment, renewal
or extension (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire
(which shall comply with paragraph (c) of this Section), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the
name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to
prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. If requested by the Issuing Bank, the
Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on the Issuing Bank’s standard form in
connection with any request for a Letter of Credit. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended,
renewed or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of
Credit the Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such
issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, (i) the LC Exposure shall not exceed $50.0 million and
(ii) the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure shall not exceed the Total Revolving Credit
Commitment. With respect to any Letter of Credit which contains any “evergreen” automatic renewal

-44-

 

provision, the Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have consented to any such extension or renewal
provided that all of the requirements of this Section 2.06 are met and no Default or Event
of Default exists at the time such Letter of Credit is issued, extended or renewed.

          (c) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of
business on the earlier of (i) the date one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of
Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal or
extension) and (ii) the date that is five Business Days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity
Date.

          (d) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a
Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the
Issuing Bank or the Lenders, the Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Revolving Lender, and each
Revolving Lender hereby acquires from the Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit
equal to such Revolving Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be
drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each
Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent,
for the account of the Issuing Bank, such Revolving Lender’s Commitment Percentage of each LC
Disbursement made by the Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrower on the date due as
provided in paragraph (e) of this Section, or of any reimbursement payment required to be
refunded to the Borrower for any reason. Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its
obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is
absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any
amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a
Default or an Event of Default or reduction or termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments, and
that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction
whatsoever.

          (e) Reimbursement. If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a
Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative
Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on
the date that such LC Disbursement is made, if the Borrower shall have received written notice
of such LC Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on such date, or, if such written
notice has not been received by the Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than
12:00 noon, New York City time, on (i) the Business Day that the Borrower receives such written
notice, if such written notice is received prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the day of
receipt, or (ii) the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower receives such
written notice, if such written notice is not received prior to such time on the day of receipt;
provided that the Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein,
request in accordance with Section 2.02 that such payment be financed with an ABR Revolving
Borrowing or Swingline Loan in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s
obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Revolving
Borrowing or Swingline Loan. If the Borrower fails to make such payment when due, the
Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the
payment then due from the Borrower in respect thereof and such Revolving Lender’s Commitment
Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Revolving Lender shall pay to
the Administrative Agent its Commitment Percentage of the payment then due from the Borrower, in
the same manner as provided in Section 2.02 with respect to Loans made by such Revolving
Lender (and Section 2.02 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment
obligations of the Revolving Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the
Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders. Promptly following receipt
by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the
Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the Issuing Bank or, to the extent that
Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing

-45-

 

Bank, then
to such Revolving Lenders and the Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by
a Revolving Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement
(other than the funding of ABR Revolving Loans or a Swingline Loan as contemplated above) shall not
constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC
Disbursement.

          (f) Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as
provided in paragraph (e) of this Section 2.06 shall be absolute, unconditional and
irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under
any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability
of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or
other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in
any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by
the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that
does not substantially comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or
circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the
provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of
setoff against, the Borrower’s obligations hereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent, the
Revolving Lenders nor the Issuing Bank, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability
or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of
Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the
circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or
delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to
any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in
interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the
Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Issuing Bank
from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential
damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by
applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by the Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise
care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply
with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross
negligence
or willful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction), the Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such
determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the
parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in
substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank may, in its sole
discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further
investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and
make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of
such Letter of Credit.

          (g) Disbursement Procedures. The Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt
thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of
Credit. The Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower by
telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such demand for payment and whether the Issuing Bank has made
or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in
giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank
and the Revolving Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement.

          (h) Interim Interest. If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then,
unless the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement
is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date
such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such LC
Disbursement, at

-46-

 

the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans; provided that
if the Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e)
of this Section 2.06, then Section 2.08(c) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant
to this paragraph shall be for the account of the Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and
after the date of payment by any Revolving Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this
Section 2.06 to reimburse the Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Lender to the
extent of such payment.

          (i) Replacement of the Issuing Bank. The Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by
written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the
successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement
of the Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall
pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section
2.10(b). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing
Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement with
respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term
“Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to
such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement
of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall
continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with
respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to
issue additional Letters of Credit.

          (j) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on
the Business Day that the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Requisite
Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Revolving Lenders with LC Exposure
representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral
pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrower shall deposit in the Collateral Account an amount in cash
equal to the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon;
provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective
immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other
notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default
with respect to the Borrower described in clause (a) of Section 7.01 or any
Event of Default described in clause (i) of Section 7.01. Each such deposit shall
be held by the Collateral Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of
the Borrower under this Agreement and the Borrower hereby grants the Collateral Agent a security
interest in respect of each such deposit and the Collateral Account in which such deposits are
held. The Collateral Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive
right of withdrawal, over the Collateral Account. Other than any interest earned on the investment
of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the
Collateral Agent and at the Borrower’s risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest.
Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in the Collateral Account.
Moneys deposited in the Collateral Account pursuant to this Section 2.06(j) shall be
applied by the Collateral Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which it has
not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the
reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of
the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Revolving Lenders with LC Exposure
representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure), be applied to satisfy other obligations of
the Borrower under this Agreement. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash
collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount together
with interest income (if any) (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the
Borrower within three Business Days after all Defaults or Events of Default have been cured or
waived.

          SECTION 2.07. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) (i) The Borrower hereby
unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant Lenders
in respect of Revolving Credit Borrowings, on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date (or such earlier
date as, and to the extent that, such Revolving Loan becomes due and payable pursuant to
Section 2.05 or Article VII), the unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan
and each Swingline Loan made to it by each such Lender and (ii) the Borrower hereby unconditionally
promises to pay the Administrative Agent for the account of the Term B-1 Lenders on the Term B-1
Loan Maturity Date (or such earlier date as, and to the extent that, such Term B-1 Loan becomes due
and payable pursuant to Section 2.05 or Article VII), the unpaid principal amount
of each Term B-1 Loan held by each such Term B-1 Lender. The Borrower hereby further agrees to pay
interest in immediately available funds at the applicable office of the Administrative Agent (as
specified in Section 2.13(a)) on the unpaid principal amount of the Revolving Loans,
Swingline Loans and Term B-1 Loans, as applicable, made to it from time to time from the Original
Effective Date until payment in full thereof at the rates per annum, and on the dates, set forth in
Section 2.08. All payments required hereunder shall be made in Dollars.

          (b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts
evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to the appropriate lending office of such Lender
resulting from each Loan made by such lending office of such Lender from time to time, including
the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such lending office of such Lender from
time to time under this Agreement.

          (c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain the Register pursuant to Section 10.04,
and a subaccount for each Lender, in which Register and subaccounts (taken together) shall be
recorded (i) the amount of each such Loan, the Class and Type of each such Loan and the Interest
Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to
become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder in respect of each such Loan and
(iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrower in
respect of each such Loan and each Lender’s share thereof.

          (d) The entries made in the Register and accounts maintained pursuant to paragraphs
(b) and (c) of this Section 2.07 and the Notes maintained pursuant to
paragraph (e) of this Section 2.07 shall, to the extent permitted by applicable
law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrower
therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender or the
Administrative Agent to maintain such account, such Register or such subaccount, as applicable, or
any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay (with
applicable interest) the Loans made to the Borrower by such Lender in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement.

          (e) The Loans of each Class made by each Lender to the Borrower shall, if requested by the
applicable Lender (which request shall be made to the Administrative Agent), be evidenced by a
single Note duly executed on behalf of the Borrower, in substantially the form attached hereto as
Exhibit G-1 or G-2, as applicable, with the blanks appropriately filled, payable to
the order of such Lender.

          SECTION 2.08. Interest Rates and Payment Dates. (a) Each Eurodollar Loan shall bear
interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) for
each day during each Interest Period with respect thereto at a rate per annum equal to:

     (i) in the case of a Eurodollar Revolving Loan, (A) the LIBO Rate determined for such
Interest Period, plus (B) the Applicable Rate; or

-48-

 

     (ii) in the case of a Eurodollar Term B-1 Loan, (A) the LIBO Rate determined for such
Interest Period plus (B) the Applicable Rate.

          (b) Each ABR Loan (including each Swingline Loan) shall bear interest (computed on the basis
of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, or over a
year of 360 days when the Alternate Base Rate is determined by reference to clause (c) of
the definition of “Alternate Base Rate”) at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate
Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate.

          (c) If (A) all or a portion of (i) the principal amount of any Loan, (ii) any interest payable
thereon or (iii) any Commitment Fee or other amount payable hereunder shall not be paid when due
(whether at the stated maturity thereof or by acceleration or otherwise) or (B) an Event of Default
described in Section 7.01(i) shall be continuing, such overdue amount (in the case of
clause (A)) and all Obligations (in the case of clause (B)) shall bear interest at
a rate per annum which is (x) in the case of overdue principal (except as otherwise
provided in clause (y) below), the rate that would otherwise be applicable thereto pursuant
to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.08 plus 2.00% per
annum or (y) in the case of any overdue interest, Commitment Fee or other amount, the rate
described in Section 2.08(b) applicable to an ABR Revolving Loan plus 2.00%
per annum, in each case from the date of such nonpayment (in the case of clause
(A)) or such Event of Default (in the case of clause (B)) to (but excluding) the date
on which such amount is paid in full (after as well as before judgment) (in the case of clause
(A)) or such Event of Default is cured (in the case of clause (B)).

          (d) Interest shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date and on the Term B-1
Loan Maturity Date (in the case of Term B-1 Loans) and the Revolving Credit Maturity Date (in the
case of Revolving Loans); provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph
(c) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or
prepayment of any Loan, accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable
on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any
Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of the current
Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date
of such conversion. Interest in respect of each Loan shall accrue from and including the first day
of an Interest Period to but excluding the last day of such Interest Period.

          SECTION 2.09. Computation of Interest. Each determination of an interest rate by the
Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on
the Borrower and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error.

          SECTION 2.10. Fees. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay a commitment fee (a
“Commitment Fee”) to each Revolving Lender, for which payment will be made in arrears
through the Administrative Agent on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December
beginning after the Original Effective Date, and on the Commitment Fee Termination Date (as defined
below). The Commitment Fee due to each Revolving Lender shall commence to accrue for a period
commencing on the Original Effective Date (or, in the case of a Revolving Lender which becomes a
Revolving Lender after the Original Effective Date, the date on which such Revolving Lender becomes
a Revolving Lender hereunder pursuant to Section 10.04(b)) and shall cease to accrue on the
date (the “Commitment Fee Termination Date”) that is the earlier of (i) the date on which
the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Revolving Lender shall be terminated as provided herein and
(ii) the first date after the end of the Revolving Credit Commitment Period. The Commitment Fee
accrued to each Revolving Lender shall equal the Commitment Fee Percentage multiplied by
such Revolving Lender’s Commitment Fee Average Daily Amount (as defined below) for the applicable
quarter (or shorter period commencing on the Original Effective Date (or, in the case of a
Revolving Lender which becomes a Revolving Lender after the Original

-49-

 

Effective Date, the date on
which such Revolving Lender becomes a Revolving Lender hereunder pursuant to Section
10.04(b)) and ending with such Lender’s Commitment Fee Termination Date). A Revolving Lender’s
“Commitment Fee Average Daily Amount” with respect to a calculation period shall equal the
average daily amount during such period calculated using the daily amount of such Revolving
Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment less such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure
(excluding clause (c) of the definition thereof for purposes of determining the Commitment
Fee Average Daily Amount only) for any applicable days during the Revolving Credit Commitment
Period. All Commitment Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in
a year of 360 days.

          (b) The Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each
Revolving Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which
shall accrue at a rate equal to the Applicable Rate for Eurodollar Revolving Loans on the average
daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to
unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Original Effective Date to
but excluding the later of the date on which such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment
terminates and the date on which such Revolving Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, and (ii) to
the Issuing Bank a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate of 0.125% per annum on the average
daily amount of the LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC
Disbursements) during the period from and including the Original Effective Date to but excluding
the later of the date of termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments and the date on which
there ceases to be any LC Exposure, as well as the Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to the
issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings
thereunder. Participation fees and fronting fees (collectively, “LC Fees”) accrued through
and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each calendar year during the
Revolving Credit Commitment Period shall be payable on the last Business Day
of such March, June, September and December, commencing on the first such date to occur after
the Original Effective Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on
which the Revolving Credit Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which
the Revolving Credit Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to
the Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within 10 days after demand therefor.
All participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and
shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the
last day).

          (c) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent the administrative fee set forth in
the Fee Letter (the “Agent Fees”).

          (d) All Fees shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the
Administrative Agent for distribution. Once paid, none of the Fees shall be refundable.

          SECTION 2.11. Termination, Reduction or Adjustment of Commitments.
(a) Unless previously terminated, (i) the Term B-1 Commitments shall terminate at 5:00 p.m.,
New York City time, on the Amendment Effective Date and (ii) the Revolving Credit Commitments shall
terminate on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date.

          (b) The Borrower shall have the right, upon one Business Day’s notice to the Administrative
Agent, to terminate or, from time to time, reduce the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments;
provided that no such termination or reduction of Revolving Credit Commitments shall be
permitted if, after giving effect thereto and to any repayments of the Loans made on the effective
date thereof, the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure then outstanding would exceed the Total
Revolving Credit Commitment then in effect.

-50-

 

          (c) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable
Revolving Lenders, on each date of termination or reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments,
the Commitment Fee on the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments so terminated or reduced
accrued to the date of such termination or reduction.

          (d) To the extent any reduction in the Revolving Credit Commitments reduces the then Available
Revolving Credit Commitments of all Lenders to an amount equal to or less than the sum of (a) the
Swingline Sublimit and (b) the maximum allowable L/C Exposure, then such reduction in Revolving
Credit Commitments shall reduce on a pro rata basis the Swingline Commitment and
the maximum amount of LC Exposure permitted by Section 2.06(b) by an amount such that the
then Available Revolving Credit Commitments are equal to or less than the sum of (a) and
(b).

          SECTION 2.12. Inability to Determine Interest Rate; Unavailability of Deposits; Inadequacy
of Interest Rate. If prior to 11:00 a.m., London time, two Business Days before the first day
of any Interest Period, including an initial Interest Period, for a requested Eurodollar Borrowing:

     (i) the Administrative Agent shall have determined in good faith (which determination
shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower) that, by reason of circumstances
affecting the relevant market generally, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for
ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Eurodollar Borrowing for such Interest Period,
or

     (ii) the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a majority in interest of
the Lenders of the applicable Class that the Adjusted LIBO Rate determined or to be
determined for such Interest Period for such Eurodollar Borrowing will not adequately and
fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (as conclusively certified by such Lenders) of
making or maintaining their affected Loans during such Interest Period,

then the Administrative Agent shall give facsimile or telephonic notice thereof to the Borrower and
to the Lenders by 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the same day. The Administrative Agent shall
give facsimile or telephonic notice to the Borrower and the Lenders as soon as practicable after
the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, and until such notice has been given,
any affected Eurodollar Loans shall not be (x) converted or continued pursuant to Section
2.03 or (y) made pursuant to a Borrowing Request, and shall be continued or made as an ABR
Loans, as the case may be.

          SECTION 2.13. Pro Rata Treatment and Payments. (a) Each reduction of the Revolving
Credit Commitments of the Revolving Lenders shall be made pro rata according to the amounts of such
Revolving Lenders’ Commitment Percentages. Each payment (including each prepayment) by the
Borrower on account of principal of and interest on Loans which are ABR Loans shall be made pro
rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of such ABR Loans then held by the
Lenders of the applicable Class. Subject to Section 2.05(e), each payment (including each
prepayment) by the Borrower on account of principal of and interest on Loans which are Eurodollar
Loans designated by the Borrower to be applied to a particular Eurodollar Borrowing shall be made
pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of such Loans then held by the
Lenders of the applicable Class. Subject to Section 2.05(e), each payment (including each
prepayment) by the Borrower on account of principal of and interest on Swingline Loans shall be
made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Swingline Loans or
participating interests therein, as the case may be, then held by the relevant Lenders. All
payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrower hereunder, whether on account of
principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and shall be
made prior to 10:00 a.m., New York time, on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent, for
the account of the Lenders of the applicable Class, at the Administrative Agent’s New York office
specified in Section 10.01 in the currency in which the applicable obligation is
denominated

-51-

 

and in immediately available funds. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such
payments to the Lenders entitled thereto in the same currency as received and promptly upon receipt
in like funds as received. If any payment hereunder (other than payments on Eurodollar Loans)
becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the
next succeeding Business Day, and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be
payable at the then applicable rate during such extension. If any payment on a Eurodollar Loan
becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended
to the next succeeding Business Day (and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon
shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension) unless the result of such
extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, in which event such payment
shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day.

          (b) Subject to Section 2.12, unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified
in writing by any Lender prior to a Borrowing that such Lender will not make the amount that would
constitute its share of such Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative
Agent may assume that such Lender is making such amount available to the Administrative Agent, and
the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a
corresponding amount. If such amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by the
required time on the Borrowing Date therefor, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent, on
demand, such amount
with interest thereon at a rate equal to the daily average Federal Funds Rate for the period
until such Lender makes such amount immediately available to the Administrative Agent. A
certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing
under this Section 2.13(b) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such
Lender’s share of such Borrowing is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender
within three Business Days of such Borrowing Date, the Administrative Agent shall also be entitled
to recover such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to ABR Revolving
Loans hereunder, on demand, from the Borrower, but without prejudice to any right or claim that the
Borrower may have against such Lender.

          (c) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative
Agent from the Borrower to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements,
interest and fees then due hereunder from the Borrower, such funds shall be applied (i)
first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder from the Borrower, ratably
among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to
such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal and unreimbursed LC
Disbursements then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the
amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due from the Borrower to such parties.

          SECTION 2.14. Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if the adoption
of or any change in any Requirement of Law, or in the interpretation or application thereof, shall
make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain Eurodollar Loans as contemplated by this
Agreement, (a) the commitment of such Lender hereunder to make Eurodollar Loans, continue
Eurodollar Loans as such and convert ABR Loans to Eurodollar Loans shall forthwith be suspended
until such time as the making or maintaining of Eurodollar Loans shall no longer be unlawful, and
(b) such Lender’s Loans then outstanding as Eurodollar Loans, if any, shall be converted
automatically to ABR Loans on the respective last days of the then current Interest Periods with
respect to such Loans or within such earlier period as required by law.

          SECTION 2.15. Requirements of Law. (a) If at any time any Lender or the Issuing Bank
determines that the introduction after the Original Effective Date of, or any change after the
Original Effective Date in or in the interpretation of, any law, treaty or governmental rule,
regulation or order (other than any change by way of imposition or increase of reserve requirements
included in determining

-52-

 

the Adjusted LIBO Rate) or the compliance by such Lender or the Issuing
Bank with any guideline, request or directive from any central bank or other Governmental Authority
(whether or not having the force of law), shall have the effect of increasing the cost to such
Lender or the Issuing Bank for agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any Eurodollar
Loans or participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit, then the Borrower shall
from time to time, within five Business Days of demand therefor by such Lender or the Issuing Bank
(with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the
account of such Lender or the Issuing Bank additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender
or the Issuing Bank for such increased cost. A certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the
basis for calculating the amount of such increased cost, submitted to the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent by such Lender or the Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive and binding for all
purposes, absent manifest error. Such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as applicable, shall promptly
notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower in writing of the occurrence of any such event,
such notice to state, in reasonable detail, the reasons therefor and the additional amount required
fully to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as applicable, for such increased cost or
reduced amount. Such additional amounts shall be payable directly to such Lender or the Issuing
Bank, as applicable, within five Business Days of the Borrower’s receipt of
such notice, and such notice shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and
binding on the Borrower.

          (b) If any change in, or the introduction, adoption, effectiveness, interpretation,
reinterpretation or phase-in of, any law or regulation, directive, guideline, decision or request
(whether or not having the force of law) of any court, central bank, regulator or other
Governmental Authority in each case after the Original Effective Date affects or would affect the
amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by any Lender or the Issuing Bank (or a
holding company controlling such Lender or the Issuing Bank) and such Lender or the Issuing Bank
determines (in its sole and absolute discretion) that the rate of return on its capital (or the
capital of its holding company, as the case may be) as a consequence of its Revolving Credit
Commitment or the Loans made by it or its participations in Swingline Loans or any issuance,
participation or maintenance of Letters of Credit is reduced to a level below that which such
Lender or the Issuing Bank (or its holding company) could have achieved but for the occurrence of
any such circumstance, then, in any such case upon notice from time to time by such Lender or the
Issuing Bank to the Borrower, the Borrower shall immediately pay directly to such Lender or the
Issuing Bank, as the case may be, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or the
Issuing Bank (or its holding company) for such reduction in rate of return. A statement of such
Lender or the Issuing Bank as to any such additional amount or amounts (including calculations
thereof in reasonable detail) shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on
the Borrower. In determining such amount, such Lender or the Issuing Bank may use any method of
averaging and attribution that it (in its sole and absolute discretion) shall deem applicable.

          (c) In the event that the Issuing Bank or any Lender determines that any event or circumstance
that will lead to a claim under this Section 2.15 has occurred or will occur, the Issuing
Bank or such Lender will use its best efforts to so notify the Borrower; provided that,
subject to the next succeeding sentence, any failure to provide such notice shall in no way impair
the rights of the Issuing Bank or such Lender to demand and receive compensation under this
Section 2.15, but without prejudice to any claims of the Borrower for compensation for
actual damages sustained as a result of any failure to observe this undertaking. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, no Borrower shall be required to compensate a Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant to
this Section 2.15 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine
months prior to the date that such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the
Borrower of the event or circumstances giving rise to a right of claim pursuant to this Section
2.15 and of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor
(except that, if the event or circumstances giving rise to such right of claim is retroactive, then
the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive
effect thereof)

          SECTION 2.16. Taxes. (a) All payments by the Loan Parties of principal of, and
interest on, the Loans and all other amounts (including fees) payable hereunder shall be made
without setoff, counterclaim or other defense, free and clear of, and without deduction or
withholding for, any and all present or future income, excise, stamp or franchise taxes and other
taxes, fees, duties, assessments, deductions, withholdings or other charges of any nature
whatsoever imposed by any taxing authority on the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any
Lender (or any assignee of such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, or a Participant or
a change in designation of the lending office of a Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be
(a “Transferee”)), including any interest, additions to tax or penalties applicable thereto
(“Taxes”), except as required by applicable law. If any Indemnified Taxes are required to
be withheld by applicable law, rule or regulation from any payment by a Loan Party, such Loan Party
shall withhold and remit such Taxes in accordance with such requirement. In the event that any
withholding or deduction from any payment to be made by a Loan Party hereunder or under any other
Loan Documents is required
in respect of any Indemnified Taxes pursuant to any applicable law, rule or regulation then
such Loan Party will:

     (i) timely pay directly to the relevant authority in accordance with applicable law the
full amount required to be so withheld or deducted;

     (ii) promptly forward to the Administrative Agent an official receipt or other
documentation (or copy thereof) reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent
evidencing such payment to such authority; and

     (iii) pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing
Bank or Transferees, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as are necessary
to ensure that the net amount actually received by each Lender or the Issuing Bank or
Transferees, as the case may be, will equal the full amount such Lender or the Issuing Bank
or Transferees, as the case may be, would have received had no such withholding or deduction
(including any withholding or deduction applicable to additional amounts payable under this
Section 2.16) been required.

For purposes hereof, “Indemnified Taxes” shall mean all Taxes other than Taxes imposed on
or measured by the recipient’s net income or taxable capital by a jurisdiction under the laws of
which such Lender or Transferee is organized or incorporated or in which its principal executive
office or applicable lending office is located or in which it conducts a trade or business or has a
permanent establishment (other than a trade, business or permanent establishment deemed to arise by
virtue of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) or is otherwise subject to such Taxes
without regard to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (provided,
however, in the case of a Lender or a Transferee that is an affiliate of a Lender and that
is a United States person within the meaning of section 7701(a)(30) of the United States Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended and that makes and holds its Loans through a lending office
located in the United States (such Lender and any such Transferee referred to herein as a “U.S.
Taxpayer Lender”), Indemnified Taxes shall include any Taxes imposed on or measured by the
recipient’s net income or taxable capital by any jurisdiction other than the United States or a
State or any political subdivision of the United States or a State (as the terms “United States”
and “State” are defined in sections 7701(a)(9) and 7701(a)(10) of the United States Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended) to which such U.S. Taxpayer Lender would not have been subject
but for the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (an “Indemnified Foreign Tax”)).

          (b) The Loan Parties agree to timely pay any and all present or future stamp or documentary
taxes and any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies (including interest, fines
and penalties in addition to tax) arising from any payment made under any Loan Document or from the

-54-

 

execution, delivery, registration or enforcement of, or otherwise with respect to, any Loan
Document (“Other Taxes”).

          (c) If any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes are directly asserted against the Administrative
Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender or Transferee with respect to any payment received by the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Lender or Transferee hereunder or under any other
Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Lender or Transferee may pay
such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes and the applicable Loan Party will promptly pay such
additional amounts (including any penalties, interest or expenses) as shall be necessary in order
that the net amount received by such Person after the payment of such Indemnified Taxes (including
any Indemnified Taxes on such additional amount) or Other Taxes shall equal the amount such Person
would have received had such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes not been asserted. In addition, the
Borrower shall also reimburse each Lender or Transferee or the Issuing Bank, upon the written
request of such Lender or Transferee or the
Issuing Bank, for net additional taxes imposed on or measured by the net income of such Person
pursuant to the laws of the jurisdiction in which such Person is organized or incorporated, or a
jurisdiction in which the principal executive office or lending office of such Person is located or
in which such Person conducts a trade or business or has a permanent establishment, or under the
laws of any political subdivision or taxing authority of any such jurisdiction, as such Person
shall determine are or were payable by such Person, in respect of amounts payable to such Person
pursuant to this Section 2.16 in respect of Indemnified Taxes imposed as a consequence of
payments by the Borrower, taking into account the amount of Indemnified Taxes (x) that are allowed
as a deduction in determining taxes imposed on or measured by the net income or allowed as a credit
against any taxes imposed on or measured by net income and (y) in respect of which an amount is
payable to such Person pursuant to this Section 2.16.

          (d) If the Borrower fails to pay any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes when due to the
appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the
Issuing Bank, the respective Lenders or Transferees, the required receipts or other required
documentary evidence, the Borrower shall indemnify the Issuing Bank, Lenders and Transferees for
any incremental Indemnified Taxes, Taxes, Other Taxes, interest, penalties or other costs
(including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) that may become payable by the Issuing Bank,
any Lender or Transferee as a result of any such failure. For purposes of this Section
2.16, a distribution hereunder by the Administrative Agent to or for the account of the Issuing
Bank, any Lender or Transferee shall be deemed a payment by the Borrower.

          (e) Each Lender or Transferee that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction other than
the United States of America or any state or political subdivision thereof shall, on or prior to
the Original Effective Date (in the case of each Lender that is a party hereto on the Original
Effective Date) or on or prior to the date of any assignment, participation or change in the
designated lending office hereunder (in the case of a Transferee), execute and deliver, if legally
able to do so, to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (i) one or more (as the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent may reasonably request) accurate and complete original signed copies of United
States Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8ECI or W-8BEN or such other forms or documents (or
successor forms or documents), appropriately completed, as may be applicable to establish the
extent, if any, to which a payment to such Lender or Transferee is exempt from or entitled to a
reduced rate of withholding or deduction of Taxes or (ii) if the Lender or Transferee is not a
“bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code and cannot deliver either Internal
Revenue Service Form W-8ECI or Form W-8BEN (with respect to a complete exemption under an income
tax treaty) pursuant to clause (i) above, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of
Exhibit P (any such certificate, a “Section 2.16 Certificate”) and (y) two accurate
and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (with respect to the
portfolio interest exemption) (or successor form) certifying to such Lender’s or Transferor’s
entitlement as of such date to a complete

-55-

 

exemption from United States withholding tax with respect
to payments of interest to be made under this Agreement and under any Note. In addition, each
Lender and Transferee agrees that from time to time after the Original Effective Date, when a lapse
in time or change in the Lender’s or Transferee’s circumstances renders the previous certification
obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, it will, to the extent legally able to do so,
deliver to the Borrower or the Agent two new accurate and complete original signed copies of
Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, Form W-8BEN (with respect to the benefits of any income tax
treaty), or Form W-8BEN (with respect to the portfolio interest exemption) and a Section 2.16
Certificate, as the case may be, and such other forms as may be required in order to confirm or
establish the entitlement of such Lender to a continued exemption from or reduction in United
States withholding tax with respect to payments under the Loan Documents.

          (f) No Borrower shall be required to indemnify or to pay any additional amounts to the Issuing
Bank or any Lender or Transferee with respect to any Indemnified Taxes pursuant to this Section 2.16 to the extent that (i) any obligation of the Borrower to withhold, deduct or
pay amounts with respect to such Indemnified Tax (other than a Tax imposed by Canada and other than
an Indemnified Foreign Tax) existed under generally accepted interpretation and application of the
law on the date the Issuing Bank or such Lender or Transferee, other than a U.S. Taxpayer Lender,
became a party to this Agreement or otherwise becomes a Transferee, except to the extent that, at
the time such Lender or Transferee becomes a party to this Agreement or otherwise becomes a
Transferee, such Person’s assignor was already entitled to receive indemnification or additional
amounts from a Loan Party with respect to any such Indemnified Tax under the provisions hereunder;
provided that this clause (i) shall not apply to any Tax imposed on a Lender or
Transferee in connection with an interest or participation in any Loan or other obligation that
such Lender or Transferee was required to acquire pursuant to Section 2.19, (ii) to the
extent such Indemnified Taxes are imposed solely because any Lender or Transferee fails to timely
provide the forms or certificates required by the provisions of the immediately preceding paragraph
or (iii) in the case of a payment of a U.S. source fee (other than a fee treated as interest for
U.S. federal income tax purposes) to a Lender or Transferee, other than a U.S. Taxpayer Lender,
described in clause (ii) of Section 2.16(e), to the extent that such forms or
certificates do not establish a complete exemption from U.S. withholding taxes with respect to such
payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, it is understood and agreed, for the avoidance
of doubt, that the obligation of the Loan Parties to indemnify for Indemnified Taxes withheld or
deducted from any payment (including, without limitation, fees) to be made by the Loan Parties
hereunder and to pay additional amounts under this Section 2.16 shall apply with respect to
any and all Indemnified Taxes imposed on or with respect to the Issuing Bank and each Lender and
Transferee with respect to any other Tax, as a result of, a change in law or regulation or a change
in the interpretation or application thereof by any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over
such Person occurring after the time such Person becomes a party to this Agreement.

          (g) In the event that the Issuing Bank or any Lender determines that any event or circumstance
that will lead to a claim by it under this Section 2.16 has occurred, the Issuing Bank or
such Lender will use commercially reasonable efforts to so notify the Borrower; provided
that any failure to provide such notice shall in no way impair the rights of the Administrative
Agent, the Issuing Bank, any Lender or any Transferee to demand and receive compensation under this
Section 2.16.

          (h) If the Borrower pays any additional amount under this Section 2.16 to a Lender and
such Lender determines in its sole discretion that it has actually realized in connection therewith
a refund or any reduction of, or credit against, its Tax liabilities (a “Tax Benefit”) such
Lender shall pay to the Borrower an amount that the Lender shall, in its sole discretion, determine
is equal to the after-tax net benefit obtained, if any, by the Lender as consequence of such Tax
Benefit net of all out-of-pocket expenses of such Lender and without interest (other than any
interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such Tax Benefit);
provided, however, that (i) any Lender may determine, in its

-56-

 

sole discretion
consistent with the policies of such Lender, whether to seek a Tax Benefit; (ii) any Taxes that are
imposed on a Lender as a result of a disallowance or reduction (including through the expiration of
any tax credit carryover or carryback of such Lender that otherwise would not have expired) of any
Tax Benefit with respect to which such Lender has made a payment to the Borrower pursuant to this
Section 2.16(h) shall be treated as Tax for which the Borrower is obligated to indemnify
such Lender pursuant to this Section 2.16; (iii) nothing in this Section 2.16(h)
shall require the Lender to disclose any confidential information to any Loan Party (including,
without limitation, its tax returns); and (iv) notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in no
event will any Lender be required to pay any amount to the Borrower the payment which would place
such Lender in a less favorable net after-tax position than such Lender would have been in if the
additional amounts giving rise to such Tax Benefits had never been paid.

          SECTION 2.17. Indemnity. In the event any Lender shall incur any loss or expense (including any loss (other than
lost profit) or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other
funds acquired by such Lender to make, continue or maintain any portion of the principal amount of
any Loan as, or to convert any portion of the principal amount of any Loan into, a Eurodollar Loan)
as a result of any conversion of a Eurodollar Loan to an ABR Loan or repayment or prepayment of the
principal amount of any Eurodollar Loan on a date other than the scheduled last day of the Interest
Period applicable thereto, whether pursuant to Section 2.03, 2.05, 2.07,
2.14, 2.15 or 2.20 or otherwise, or any failure to borrow or convert any
Eurodollar Loan after notice thereof shall have been given hereunder, whether by reason of any
failure to satisfy a condition to such Borrowing or otherwise, then, upon the written notice of
such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower with respect to
such Loan shall, within five Business Days of its receipt thereof, pay directly to such Lender such
amount as will (in the reasonable determination of such Lender) reimburse such Lender for such loss
or expense. Such written notice (which shall include calculations in reasonable detail) shall, in
the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the Borrower.

          SECTION 2.18. Change of Lending Office. Each Lender (or Transferee) agrees that, upon
the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.14, 2.15 or
2.16 with respect to such Lender (or Transferee), it will, if requested by the Borrower,
use commercially reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender (or
Transferee)) to designate another lending office for any Loans affected by such event with the
object of avoiding the consequences of such event; provided that such designation is made
on terms that, in the sole judgment of such Lender, cause such Lender and its respective lending
offices to suffer no material economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage; and provided,
further, that nothing in this Section 2.18 shall affect or postpone any of the
obligations of the Borrower or the rights of any Lender (or Transferee) pursuant to Sections
2.14, 2.15 and 2.16.

          SECTION 2.19. Sharing of Setoffs. Each Lender agrees that if it shall, through the
exercise of a right of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim against the Borrower (in each case to
the extent permitted hereunder), or pursuant to a secured claim under Section 506 of Title 11 of
the United States Code or other security or interest arising from, or in lieu of, such secured
claim received by such Lender under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law or
otherwise, or by any other means, obtain payment (voluntary or involuntary) in respect of any Loans
or participations in LC Disbursements which at the time shall be due and payable as a result of
which the unpaid principal portion of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements which at the
time shall be due and payable shall be proportionately less than the unpaid principal portion of
such Loans and participations in LC Disbursements of any other Lender, it shall be deemed
simultaneously to have purchased from such other Lender at face value, and shall promptly pay to
such other Lender the purchase price for, a participation in such Loans and participations in LC
Disbursements of such other Lender, so that the aggregate unpaid principal amount of such Loans and
participations in LC Disbursements held by each Lender shall be in the same proportion

-57-

 

to the
aggregate unpaid principal amount of all such Loans and participations in LC Disbursements as prior
to such exercise of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim or other event; provided,
however, that if any such purchase or purchases or adjustments shall be made pursuant to
this Section and the payment giving rise thereto shall thereafter be recovered, such purchase or
purchases or adjustments shall be rescinded to the extent of such recovery and the purchase price
or prices or adjustments restored without interest. The Borrower expressly consents to the
foregoing arrangements and agrees that any Lender holding a participation in a Loan or an LC
Disbursement deemed to have been so purchased may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien,
setoff or counterclaim with respect to any and all moneys owing by the Borrower to such Lender by
reason
thereof as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor directly to the Borrower in the
amount of such participation.

          SECTION 2.20. Assignment of Commitments Under Certain Circumstances. In the event
that (a) any Lender shall have delivered a notice or certificate pursuant to Section 2.14
or 2.15, or the Borrower shall be required to make additional payments to any Lender under
Section 2.16 (each, an “Increased Cost Lender”) then, with respect to each such
Increased Cost Lender (the “Terminated Lender”), the Borrower shall have the right, but not
the obligation, at its own expense, upon notice to such Terminated Lender and the Administrative
Agent, to replace such Terminated Lender with (x) another Lender or (y) an assignee (in accordance
with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 10.04), and such Terminated
Lender hereby agrees to transfer and assign without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the
restrictions contained in Section 10.04) all its interests, rights and obligations under
this Agreement to such other Lender or assignee; provided, however, that no
Terminated Lender shall be obligated to make any such assignment unless (i) such assignment shall
not conflict with any law or any rule, regulation or order of any Governmental Authority and (ii)
the affected Terminated Lender shall have been paid in immediately available funds on the date of
such assignment the principal of and interest accrued to the date of payment on the Loans made by
such Terminated Lender and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans held by such
Terminated Lender and all commitment fees and other fees owed to such Terminated Lender hereunder
and all other amounts accrued for such Terminated Lender’s account or owed to it hereunder
(including, without limitation, any Commitment Fees).

          SECTION 2.21. Increase in Commitments.

          (a) Borrower Request. The Borrower may by written notice to the Administrative Agent
elect to request prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, an increase to the existing Revolving
Credit Commitment by an amount not in excess of $75,000,000 in the aggregate. Each such notice
shall specify (i) the date (each, an “Increase Effective Date”) on which the Borrower
proposes that the increased Revolving Credit Commitment shall be effective, which shall be a date
not less than 10 Business Days after the date on which such notice is delivered to the
Administrative Agent and (ii) the identity of each Eligible Assignee to whom the Borrower proposes
any portion of such increased Revolving Credit Commitment be allocated and the amounts of such
allocations; provided that any existing Lender approached to provide all or a portion of
the increased Revolving Credit Commitment may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide
such increased Revolving Credit Commitment.

          (b) Conditions. The increased Revolving Credit Commitment shall become effective, as
of such Increase Effective Date; provided that:

     (i) each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 shall be satisfied;

     (ii) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result from the
borrowings made on the Increase Effective Date, if any;

-58-

 

     (iii) the Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered any legal opinions or other
documents reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in connection with any such
transaction; and

     (iv) the Borrower shall deliver mortgage amendments sufficient to cover the full amount
of the increase of the Revolving Credit Commitments, pursuant to documentation reasonably
satisfactory to the Agents.

          (c) Terms of New Loans and Commitments. The terms and provisions of Revolving Loans
made pursuant to increased Revolving Credit Commitments shall be identical to the Revolving Loans.
The increased Revolving Credit Commitments shall be effected by a joinder agreement (the
“Increase Joinder”) executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Lender
making such increased Revolving Credit Commitment, in form and substance satisfactory to each of
them. The Increase Joinder may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments
to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion
of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.21. In addition,
unless otherwise specifically provided herein, all references in Loan Documents to Revolving Loans
shall be deemed, unless the context otherwise requires, to include references to Revolving Loans
made pursuant to increased Revolving Credit Commitments made pursuant to this Agreement.

          (d) Adjustment of Revolving Loans. Each of the Revolving Lenders having a Revolving
Commitment prior to such Increase Effective Date (the “Pre-Increase Revolving Lenders”)
shall assign to any Revolving Lender which is acquiring a new or additional Revolving Commitment on
the Increase Effective Date (the “Post-Increase Revolving Lenders”), and such Post-Increase
Revolving Lenders shall purchase from each Pre-Increase Revolving Lender, at the principal amount
thereof, such interests in the Revolving Loans and participation interests in LC Exposure and
Swingline Loans outstanding on such Increase Effective Date as shall be necessary in order that,
after giving effect to all such assignments and purchases, such Revolving Loans and participation
interests in LC Exposure and Swingline Loans will be held by Pre-Increase Revolving Lenders and
Post-Increase Revolving Lenders ratably in accordance with their Revolving Commitments after giving
effect to such increased Revolving Commitments.

          (e) Equal and Ratable Benefit. The Revolving Credit Commitment established pursuant
to this paragraph shall constitute Revolving Credit Commitments under, and shall be entitled to all
the benefits afforded by, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and shall, without limiting
the foregoing, benefit equally and ratably from the Guarantees and security interests created by
the Security Documents. The Loan Parties shall take any actions reasonably required by the
Administrative Agent to ensure and/or demonstrate that the Lien and security interests granted by
the Security Documents continue to be perfected under the UCC or otherwise after giving effect to
the establishment of any such increased Revolving Credit Commitment.

ARTICLE III

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

          In order to induce the Lenders and the Administrative Agent to enter into this Agreement and
to extend credit hereunder and under the other Loan Documents on the Original Effective Date and on
the Amendment Effective Date, the Loan Parties, jointly and severally, make the representations and

-59-

 

warranties set forth in this Article III (after giving effect to the Transactions) and upon the
occurrence of each Credit Event thereafter:

          SECTION 3.01. Organization, etc.
Each Loan Party (a) is a corporation or other form of legal entity, and each of its

all requisite governmental licenses, permits and other approvals to (i) enter into and perform its
obligations under this Agreement and each other Loan Document to which it is a party and (ii) own

          SECTION 3.02. Due Authorization, Non-Contravention, etc. The execution, delivery and
performance by each Loan Party of this Agreement and each other Loan Document to which it is a
party, the borrowing of the Loans, the use of the proceeds thereof and the issuance of the Letters
of Credit hereunder are within each Loan Party’s corporate, partnership or comparable powers, as
the case may be, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate, partnership or comparable

approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any Governmental Authority or
regulatory body or other Person is required for the due execution, delivery or performance by the

Business and the cost center activity and certain cash flow information as of the dates and for the
periods presented; and (y) the financial statements referred to in clause (x)(i)(A) and
(x)(ii) above have been audited by independent registered public accountants of nationally
recognized standing and are accompanied by an unqualified opinion of such accountants.

          (b) Except as disclosed in the financial statements referred to above or the notes thereto or
in the Information Memorandum, none of the Parent Guarantor or its Subsidiaries has any
Indebtedness, contingent liabilities, long-term commitments or unrealized losses that have had or
reasonably could be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

          SECTION 3.07. No Material Adverse Effect. Since December 29, 2005, no event or
circumstance has occurred that has had, or could reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse
Effect.

          SECTION 3.08. Litigation. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.08 to the Original Credit Agreement, there is no

parties to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby (including the Transactions), which
could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or which purports to affect the
legality, validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including the Transactions).

-61-

 

          SECTION 3.09. Compliance with Laws and Agreements. None of the Loan Parties has
violated, is in violation of or has been given written notice of any violation of any laws (other
than Environmental Laws, which are the subject of Section 3.14), regulations or orders of
any Governmental Authority applicable to it or its property or any indenture, agreement or other
instrument binding upon it or its property, except for any violations which could not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing. No breach, default, violation, cancellation, termination or other event that could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect has occurred under any Boeing Agreement.

          SECTION 3.10. Subsidiaries. Schedule 3.10 to the Original Credit Agreement
sets forth the name of, and the direct or indirect ownership interest of the Parent Guarantor and
the Borrower in each of their respective Subsidiaries and identifies each Subsidiary that is a Loan
Party, in each case as of the Original Effective Date and as of the Amendment Effective Date.

          SECTION 3.11. Ownership of Properties. (a) Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries
has good and marketable title in fee simple to (or other similar title in jurisdictions outside the
United States of America), or valid leasehold interests in, or easements or other limited property
interests in, or is licensed to use, all its properties and assets (including all Mortgaged
Properties), except for defects in the foregoing that do not materially interfere with its ability
to conduct its business as currently conducted or to utilize such properties and assets for their
intended purposes and except where the failure to do so in the aggregate could not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. All such properties and assets are free and clear of
Liens, other than Permitted Liens.

          (b) As of the Original Effective Date, Schedule 3.11(b) to the Original Credit
Agreement contains and will contain a true and complete list of each parcel of Real Property (i)
owned in fee by any Loan Party as of the Original Effective Date and (ii) leased, subleased or
otherwise occupied or utilized by any Loan Party, as lessee or otherwise, as of the Original
Effective Date whether such lease, sublease or other instrument requires the consent of the
landlord or grantee thereunder or other parties thereto to the Acquisition Transactions.

          (c) Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries has complied with all obligations under all
leases and other Real Property Agreements (including, without limitation, the IRB Agreements) to
which it is a party, except where the failure to comply could not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect, and all such leases and other Real Property Agreements are in full force
and effect, except in respect of which the failure to be in full force and effect could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each of the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries enjoys peaceful and undisturbed possession under all such leases, other than leases in
respect of which the failure to enjoy peaceful
and undisturbed possession could not reasonably be expected to, individually or in the
aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

          (d) Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries owns, possesses, is licensed or otherwise has
the right to use, or could obtain ownership or possession of, all patents, trademarks, service
marks, trade names, copyrights, licenses and rights with respect thereto necessary for the present
conduct of its business, except for those the failure to own, possess, license or use could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and without any known conflict or alleged
conflict with the rights of others, except where such conflicts could not, individually or in the
aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

          (e) As of the Original Effective Date, no Loan Party or any of its respective Subsidiaries has
received any written notice of, or has any knowledge of, any pending or contemplated condemnation

-62-

 

proceeding affecting any of the Mortgaged Properties or any sale or disposition thereof in lieu of
condemnation that remains unresolved as of the Original Effective Date.

          (f) Except as set forth on Schedule 3.11(f) to the Original Credit Agreement, neither
the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is obligated on the Original Effective Date under any
right of first refusal, option or other contractual right to sell, assign or otherwise dispose of
any Mortgaged Property or any interest therein.

          SECTION 3.12. Taxes. Each of the Parent Guarantor, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries
has timely filed all federal, foreign and all other material tax returns and reports required by
law to have been filed by it and has timely paid all taxes and governmental charges due (whether or
not shown on any tax return), except any such taxes or charges which are being diligently contested
in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP
shall have been set aside on its books; provided that any such contest of taxes or charges
with respect to Collateral shall have the effect of preventing the forfeiture or sale of such
Collateral. Each of the Parent Guarantor, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries has made adequate
provision in accordance with GAAP for all taxes not yet due and payable. Neither the Parent
Guarantor, nor the Borrower, nor any of its Subsidiaries has ever been a party to any understanding
or arrangement constituting a “tax shelter” within the meaning of Section 6662(d)(2)(C)(iii) of the
Code or within the meaning of Section 6111(c) or Section 6111(d) of the Code as in effect
immediately prior to the enactment of the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004, or has ever
“participated” in a “reportable transaction” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section
1.6011-4, except as could not be reasonably expected to, individually or in the aggregate, result
in a Material Adverse Effect.

          SECTION 3.13. Pension and Welfare Plans. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.13
to the Original Credit Agreement, no ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur
which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or give rise to a Lien on the
assets of any Loan Party or a Subsidiary. The Borrower and its Subsidiaries and their ERISA
Affiliates are in compliance in all respects with the presently applicable provisions of ERISA and
the Code with respect to each Plan except for failures to so comply which could not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.13 to the
Original Credit Agreement, no condition exists or event or transaction has occurred with respect to
any Plan which reasonably might result in the incurrence by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries
or any ERISA Affiliate of any liability, fine or penalty which could reasonably be expected to have
a Material Adverse Effect. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.13 to the Original Credit
Agreement, the present value of all accumulated benefit obligations of all underfunded Pension
Plans (based on the assumptions used
for purposes of statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 87) did not, as of the date of
the most recent financial statements reflecting such amounts, exceed the fair market value of the
assets of all such underfunded Pension Plans by an amount that could reasonably be expected to have
a Material Adverse Effect if the Pension Plans were terminated. Using actuarial assumptions and
computation methods consistent with subpart 1 of subtitle E of Title IV of ERISA, the aggregate
liabilities of each Loan Party or ERISA Affiliate to all Multiemployer Plans in the event of a
complete withdrawal therefrom, as of the close of the most recent fiscal year of each such
Multiemployer Plan, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.
Except as set forth on Schedule 3.13 to the Original Credit Agreement, neither the Borrower
nor any of its Subsidiaries has any contingent liability with respect to post-retirement benefits
provided by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries under a Welfare Plan, other than (i) liability
for continuation coverage described in Part 6 of Subtitle B of Title I of ERISA and (ii)
liabilities that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect.

-63-

 

          Except as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (a) each Foreign
Plan has been maintained in compliance with its terms and with the requirements of any and all
applicable laws, statutes, rules, regulations and orders and has been maintained, where required,
in good standing with applicable regulatory authorities, and (b) neither the Borrower nor any of
its Subsidiaries has incurred any obligation in connection with the termination of or withdrawal
from any Foreign Plan.

          SECTION 3.14. Environmental Warranties. (a) Except as set forth on Schedule
3.14(a) to the Original Credit Agreement, all facilities and property owned, leased or operated
by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, and all operations conducted thereon, are in compliance
with all Environmental Laws, except for such noncompliance that, individually or in the aggregate,
could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

          (b) Except as set forth on Schedule 3.14(b) to the Original Credit Agreement, there
are no pending or threatened (in writing):

     (i) Environmental Claims received by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or

     (ii) written claims, complaints, notices or inquiries received by the Borrower or any
of its Subsidiaries regarding Environmental Liability,

in each case which, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect.

          (c) Except as set forth on Schedule 3.14(c) to the Original Credit Agreement, there
have been no Releases of Hazardous Materials at, on, under or from any property now or, to any Loan
Party’s knowledge, previously owned, leased or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries
that, individually or in the aggregate, have had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect.

          (d) The Borrower and its Subsidiaries have been issued and are in compliance with all
Environmental Permits necessary for their operations, facilities and businesses and each is in full
force and effect, except for such Environmental Permits which, if not so obtained or as to which
the Borrower and its Subsidiaries are not in compliance, or are not in effect, individually or in
the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

          (e) No property now or, to any Loan Party’s knowledge, previously owned, leased or operated by
the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is listed or proposed (with respect to owned property only)
for listing on the CERCLIS or on any similar state list of sites requiring investigation or
clean-up, or on the National Priorities List pursuant to CERCLA.

          (f) There are no underground storage tanks, active or abandoned, including petroleum storage
tanks, surface impoundments or disposal areas, on or under any property now or, to any Loan Party’s
knowledge, previously owned or leased by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries which, singly or
in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

          (g) Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries has transported or arranged for the
transportation of any Hazardous Material to any location which is listed or proposed for listing on
the National Priorities List pursuant to CERCLA, on the CERCLIS or on any similar state list or
which is the subject of federal, state or local enforcement actions or other investigations which
would reasonably be expected to lead to any Environmental Claim against the Borrower or such
Subsidiary.

-64-

 

          (h) No liens have been recorded pursuant to any Environmental Law with respect to any property
or other assets currently owned or leased by the Borrower or its Subsidiaries.

          (i) Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is currently conducting any Remedial
Action pursuant to any Environmental Law, nor has any of the Loan Parties or any of their
respective Subsidiaries assumed by contract, agreement or operation of law any obligation under
Environmental Law, the cost of which, singly or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect.

          (j) There are no polychlorinated biphenyls or asbestos or asbestos-containing material present
at any property owned, leased or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, which, singly
or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

          SECTION 3.15. Regulations T, U and X. The Loans, the use of the proceeds thereof,
this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby will not result in a violation of or be
inconsistent with any provision of Regulation T, Regulation U or Regulation X.

          SECTION 3.16. Disclosure; Accuracy of Information; Pro Forma Balance Sheets and Projected
Financial Statements. (a) Neither this Agreement nor any other document, certificate or
statement, in each case concerning any Loan Party or the Acquired Business, furnished to the
Administrative Agent or any Lender by or on behalf of any Loan Party in connection herewith
(including, without limitation, the Information Memorandum) contains any untrue statement of a
material fact or omits to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements
contained herein and therein not misleading, in light of the circumstances under which they were
made; provided that to the extent this or any such document, certificate or statement
(including without limitation the Information Memorandum) was based upon or constitutes a forecast
or projection, the Loan Parties represent only that they acted in good faith and utilized
reasonable assumptions and due care in the preparation of such document, certificate or statement,
it being understood that forecast and projections are subject to uncertainties and contingencies
and no assurance can be given that any forecast or projection will be realized.

          (b) The pro forma consolidated balance sheets as of December 29, 2005 and March 30, 2006,
prepared giving effect to the Amendment Transactions as if the Amendment Transactions had occurred
on such date and furnished to the Lenders, (i) were prepared in good faith based on reasonable
assumptions used to prepare the pro forma financial statements included in the Information
Memorandum, (ii) accurately reflect all material adjustments necessary to give effect to the
Amendment Transactions and (iii) present fairly the pro forma financial position of the Borrower
and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of their respective dates, as if the Amendment Transactions
had occurred on such date.

          (c) The pro forma consolidated income statement projections for the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries, pro forma consolidated balance sheet projections for the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries and pro forma consolidated cash flow projections for the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries, all for the Fiscal Years ending 2006 through 2013, inclusive, and on a quarterly
basis through and including Fiscal Year 2006 and annually thereafter which were furnished to the
Lenders (the “Projected Financial Statements”) and which give effect to the Amendment
Transactions and all Indebtedness and Liens incurred or created in connection with the Amendment
Transactions were prepared in good faith based on assumptions that are reasonable as of the date of
such projections and as of the Original Effective Date and all material assumptions with respect to
the Projected Financial Statements are set forth therein. The Projected Financial Statements
present a good faith estimate of the consolidated financial information contained therein at the
date thereof, it being recognized by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, however, that
projections as to future events are not to be viewed as facts and that the actual results during
the period or periods

-65-

 

covered by the projections will differ from the projected results and that
the difference may be material.

          SECTION 3.17. Insurance. The properties of the Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries
are insured with financially sound and reputable insurance companies in such amounts, with such
deductibles and covering such risks as are customarily carried by companies engaged in similar
businesses and operating and owning properties in the same or similar locations, and as required to
be maintained pursuant to the Security Documents. All such insurance (including the related
insurance policies) is in full force and effect, all premiums with respect thereto that are due and
payable have been duly paid and no Loan Party has received or is aware of any notice of violation
or cancellation thereof and each Loan Party has complied in all material respects with the material
requirements of each such policy.

slowdowns against the Loan Parties pending or, to the knowledge of any Loan Party, threatened; (b)
the hours worked by and payments made to employees of the Loan Parties have not been in violation
of the Fair Labor Standards Act or any other applicable Federal, state, local or foreign law
dealing with such matters; and (c) all payments due from the Loan Parties, or for which any claim
may be made against the Loan Parties, on account of wages and employee health and welfare insurance
and other benefits, have been paid or accrued as a liability on the books of the Loan Parties.

          SECTION 3.19. Solvency. Immediately following the making of each Loan and after
giving effect to the application of the proceeds of such Loans, (a) the fair value of the assets of
each Loan Party, at a fair valuation,
will exceed its debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise; (b) the present
fair saleable value of the property of each Loan Party will be greater than the amount that will be
required to pay the probable liability of its debts and other liabilities, subordinated, contingent
or otherwise, as such debts and other liabilities become absolute and matured; (c) each Loan Party
will be able to pay its debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts
and liabilities become absolute and matured; and (d) each Loan Party will not have unreasonably
small capital with which to conduct the business in which it is engaged as such business is now
conducted and is proposed to be conducted.

          SECTION 3.20. Securities. The common Equity Interests of each of the Parent
Guarantor’s and the Borrower’s Subsidiaries are fully paid and non-assessable. The Equity
Interests of each Subsidiary held, directly or indirectly, by the Borrower are owned, directly or
indirectly, by the Borrower free and clear of all Liens except the Liens created by the Security
Documents and non-consensual Permitted Liens. There are not, as of the Original Effective Date,
any existing options, warrants, calls, subscriptions, convertible or exchangeable securities,
rights, agreements, commitments or arrangements for any Person to acquire any common stock of the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any other securities convertible into, exchangeable for or
evidencing the right to subscribe for any such common stock, except as disclosed in the financial
statements delivered pursuant to Sections 5.01(a) and (b) or otherwise disclosed to
the Lenders prior to the Original Effective Date.

          SECTION 3.21. Indebtedness Outstanding. Set forth on Schedule 3.21 to the
Original Credit Agreement is a list and description of all Indebtedness of the Loan Parties and
their respective Subsidiaries (other than the Loans) that will be outstanding immediately after the

favor of the Collateral Agent for its benefit and the benefit of the Secured Parties legal, valid

Collateral in which a security interest may be perfected only by possession or control (which
possession or control shall be given to the Collateral Agent to the extent possession or control by
the Collateral Agent is required by the Security Agreement), the Security Agreement shall
constitute a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of
the grantors thereunder in such Collateral (other than the Intellectual Property (as defined in the
Security Agreement)) to the extent such Lien and security interest can be perfected by the filing
of a financing statement pursuant to the UCC or by possession or control by the Collateral Agent,

Liens.

          (c) When the filings in clause (b)(ii)(x) above of this Section 3.22 are made
and when the Security Agreement (or a short form security agreement substantially in the form of
Annex V-A, Annex V-B or Annex V-C, as applicable, to the Security Agreement) is filed in the United
States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office, the Security Agreement
shall constitute a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest
of the Loan Parties in the Intellectual Property (as defined in the Security Agreement) in which a
security interest may be perfected by such filing, recording or registration (it being understood
that subsequent recordings in the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States
Copyright Office may be necessary to perfect a Lien on registered trademarks, trademark
applications and copyrights acquired by the Loan Parties after the Original Effective Date), in
each case prior and superior in right to any other Person other than with respect to Permitted
Liens.

          (d) Each Mortgage identifying the Secured Parties as Secured Parties therein executed and
delivered as of the Original Effective Date is, or, to the extent any Mortgage identifying the
Secured Parties as Secured Parties therein is duly executed and delivered thereafter by the
relevant Loan Party, will be, effective to create, subject to the exceptions listed in each title

benefit of the Secured Parties, a legal, valid and enforceable Lien on and security interest in all
of the Loan Parties’ right, title and interest in and to the Mortgaged Properties thereunder and
the proceeds thereof, and when the Mortgages are filed in the offices specified on Schedule
3.22(d) to the Original Credit Agreement, the Mortgages shall constitute a Lien on, and
security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in that part of such
Mortgaged Properties that constitute Real Property and fixtures and the proceeds thereof, in each
case prior and superior in right to any other Person, other than with respect to the rights of
Persons pursuant to Permitted Liens.

          SECTION 3.23. Anti-Terrorism Laws. (a) None of the Loan Parties or, to the knowledge
of any of the Loan Parties, any of their Affiliates is in violation of any laws relating to
terrorism or money laundering (“Anti-Terrorism Laws”), including Executive Order No. 13224

their respective brokers or other agents acting or benefiting in any capacity in connection with
the Loans is any of the following:

force and effect.

          (e) Each IRB Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by each Trust and Loan Party
thereto and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of each Trust and Loan Party

generally and to general principles of equity.

          (f) The Borrower and/or its Subsidiaries have valid leasehold interests free and clear of all

to any Equity Investors only for cash in an aggregate amount not in excess of the minimum amount
necessary to cure the relevant failure to comply with such Financial Covenant, the net cash
proceeds of which shall be contributed to the common equity capital of the Borrower (collectively,
the “Cure Right”), and upon the receipt by the Borrower of such cash (the “Cure
Amount”), provided such Cure Amount is used to repay Loans under Section
2.05(a) within two Business Days of the issuance of the Permitted Cure Securities with respect
thereto, such Financial Covenant shall be recalculated giving effect to the following pro forma
adjustments:

     (a) Consolidated EBITDA shall be increased, in accordance with the definition thereof,
solely for the purpose of measuring such Financial Covenant and not for any other purpose
under this Agreement, by an amount equal to the Cure Amount;

in compliance with the requirements of such Financial Covenant, the Borrower shall be deemed
to have satisfied the requirements of such Financial Covenant as of the relevant date of
determination with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply therewith
at such date, and the applicable breach or default of such Financial Covenant which had
occurred shall be deemed cured for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents;

     (c) to the extent that the Cure Amount proceeds are used to repay Indebtedness, such
Indebtedness shall not be deemed to have been repaid for purposes of calculating the
Financial Covenants for the Test Period with respect to which such Cure Right was exercised;
and

     (d) to the extent a Fiscal Quarter ended for which such Financial Covenant is initially
recalculated as a result of a Cure Right is included in the calculation of a Financial

ARTICLE VIII

THE AGENTS

          SECTION 8.01. The Agents. Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the
Agents as the agents of such Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and each
Lender irrevocably authorizes each Agent, in such capacity, to take such action on its behalf under
the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and
perform such duties as are expressly delegated to such Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the
other Loan

-97-

 

Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Each
Lender that holds Term B-1 Loans or has Term B-1 Commitments and each Qualified Counterparty (in
each case, in its capacity as such) hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Collateral Agent
as an agent of such Person under this Agreement and each other Loan Document to which the
Collateral Agent is a party. In addition, without hereby limiting any implied authority, each
Lender hereby expressly authorizes and directs the Collateral Agent to enter into each Loan
Document to which it is a party as its agent. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary
elsewhere in this Agreement, no Agent shall have any duties or responsibilities, except those
expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied
covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this
Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against any Agent. The Administrative
Agent is hereby expressly authorized by the Lenders, without hereby limiting any implied authority,
(a) to receive on behalf of the Lenders all payments of principal of and interest on the Loans, all
payments and all other amounts due to the Lenders hereunder, and promptly to distribute to each
Lender its proper share of each payment so received; (b) to give notice on behalf of each of the
Lenders to the Borrower of any Default specified in this Agreement of which such Agent has actual
knowledge acquired in connection with its agency hereunder; and (c) to distribute to each Lender
copies of all notices, financial statements and other materials delivered by the Borrower pursuant
to this Agreement as received by such Agent.

          None of the Agents nor any of their Related Parties shall be liable to the Lenders as such for
any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them except to the extent finally judicially
determined to have resulted from its or his or her own gross negligence or willful misconduct, or
be responsible for any statement, warranty or representation herein or the contents of any document
delivered in connection herewith, or be required to ascertain or to make any inquiry concerning the
performance or observance by any Loan Party of any of the terms, conditions, covenants or
agreements contained in any Loan Document. The Agents shall not be responsible to the Lenders for
the due
execution, genuineness, validity, enforceability or effectiveness of this Agreement or any
other Loan Documents or other instruments or agreements. Each Agent shall in all cases be fully
protected in acting, or refraining from acting, in accordance with written instructions signed by
the Requisite Lenders (or, when expressly required hereby, all the Lenders) and, except as
otherwise specifically provided herein, such instructions and any action or inaction pursuant
thereto shall be binding on all the Lenders. Each Agent shall, in the absence of actual knowledge
to the contrary, be entitled to rely on any instrument or document believed by it in good faith to
be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper person or persons. None of
the Agents nor any of their Related Parties shall have any responsibility to the Loan Parties on
account of the failure of or delay in performance or breach by any Lender of any of its obligations
hereunder or to any Lender on account of the failure of or delay in performance or breach by any
other Lender or the Loan Parties of any of their respective obligations hereunder or under any
other Loan Document or in connection herewith or therewith. Each Agent may execute any and all
duties hereunder by or through any of its Related Parties or any sub-agent appointed by it and
shall be entitled to rely upon the advice of legal counsel selected by it with respect to all
matters arising hereunder and shall not be liable for any action taken or suffered in good faith by
it in accordance with the advice of such counsel.

          The Lenders hereby acknowledge that no Agent shall be under any duty to take any discretionary
action permitted to be taken by it pursuant to the provisions of any Loan Document unless it shall
be requested in writing to do so by the Requisite Lenders.

          The Collateral Agent hereby agrees that it holds and will hold all of its right, title and
interest in, to and under the Security Documents and the Collateral granted to the Collateral Agent
thereunder whether now existing or hereafter arising (all such right, title and interest being
hereinafter referred to as the “Collateral Estate”) under and subject to the conditions set
forth in this Agreement; and the Collateral Agent further agrees that it will hold such Collateral
Estate for the benefit of the Secured Parties,

-98-

 

for the enforcement of the payment of all
Obligations (subject to the limitations and priorities set forth herein and in the respective
Security Documents) and as security for the performance of and compliance with the covenants and
conditions of this Agreement and each of the Security Documents.

          All of the powers, remedies and rights of the Collateral Agent as set forth in this Agreement
may be exercised by the Collateral Agent in respect of any Security Document as though set forth in
full therein and all of the powers, remedies and rights of the Collateral Agent as set forth in any
Security Document may be exercised from time to time as herein and therein provided.

          Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Agent as provided below and subject
to the next succeeding paragraph with respect to the Collateral Agent, any Agent may resign at any
time by notifying the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the
Requisite Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been so
appointed by the Requisite Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after
the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the
Lenders and the Issuing Bank, appoint a successor Agent which shall be a bank with an office in New
York, New York, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $500.0 million or an Affiliate of
any such bank. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as an Agent hereunder by such a successor
bank, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and
duties of the retiring Agent and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and
obligations hereunder. After an Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and
Section 10.05 shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or
omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as an Agent.

          The Collateral Agent may resign as the Collateral Agent upon 30 days’ notice to the Lenders
and the Borrower. If the Collateral Agent shall resign as the Collateral Agent under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents, then the Requisite Lenders shall appoint from among the
Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which successor agent shall (unless an Event of Default
with respect to the Borrower shall have occurred and be continuing) be subject to approval by the
Borrower (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), whereupon such successor
agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Collateral Agent, and the term
“Collateral Agent” means such successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and
such former Collateral Agent’s rights, powers and duties as the Collateral Agent shall be
terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Collateral Agent or
any of the parties to this Agreement or any holders of the Loans. If no successor agent has
accepted appointment as the Collateral Agent by the date that is 30 days following a retiring
Collateral Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Collateral Agent shall, in consultation with
the Borrower, appoint a successor Collateral Agent (which successor agent shall be a financial
institution of nationally-recognized standing that, in the ordinary course of business, performs
functions equivalent to those of the Collateral Agent hereunder), and the retiring Collateral
Agent’s resignation shall become effective upon such appointment. After any retiring Collateral
Agent’s resignation as the Collateral Agent, the provisions of this Article VIII shall
inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the
Collateral Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

          With respect to the Loans made by it hereunder, each Agent in its individual capacity and not
as an Agent shall have the same rights and powers as any other Lender and may exercise the same as
though it were not an Agent, and such Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money
to and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other
Affiliate thereof as if it were not an Agent.

-99-

 

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

          The Lenders and the Issuing Bank irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent and the
Collateral Agent (and the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent hereby agree)

     (a) to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent
under any Loan Document (i) upon termination or expiration of the Commitments and payment in
full of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations that are not then
due and payable) and the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit (other than
Letters of Credit which have been collateralized in a manner reasonably acceptable to the
Administrative Agent), (ii) that is sold or to be sold as part of or in connection with any
sale or disposition permitted hereunder and under the Loan Documents, or (iii) subject to
Section 10.08, if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Requisite
Lenders; and

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

          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, neither the Lead Arranger, any
Co-Arranger, any Co-Syndication Agent nor the Co-Documentation Agents, in such respective
capacities, shall have any obligations, duties or responsibilities, or shall incur any
liabilities, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

communication (unless directly caused by that Person’s gross negligence or willful
misconduct); or

     (ii) any telecopy communication which reasonably appears to that Lender to have been
sent by the Borrower having in fact been sent by a Person other than the Borrower.

          SECTION 10.02. Survival of Agreement. All covenants, agreements, representations and
warranties made by the Loan Parties herein and in the certificates or other instruments prepared or
delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be
considered to have been relied upon by Lenders hereto and shall survive the making by the Lenders
of the Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any
such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing
Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or Event of Default or incorrect
representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full
force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any Fee or any
other amount payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document is outstanding and unpaid or
any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not been terminated. The
provisions of Sections 2.16, 10.02, 10.05 and 10.16 and Article
VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the

-101-

 

transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the
Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

          SECTION 10.03. Binding Effect. Subject to Sections 4.01 and 4.02,
this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof
which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter
shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted
successors and assigns.

          SECTION 10.04. Successors and Assigns. (a) Whenever in this Agreement any of the
parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the permitted successors
and assigns of such party (including any Affiliate of the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of
Credit). All covenants, promises and agreements by or on behalf of the Borrower, the Agents or the
Lenders that are contained in this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of their
respective successors and assigns. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be
construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and
assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in Section 10.04(f)(iii) and,
solely to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Agents, the
Issuing
Bank and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this
Agreement.

          (b) Each Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its
interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its
Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided, however, that (i)
except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or in
connection with the initial syndication of the Commitments and Loans, the amount of the Commitment
or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the
Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent)
shall not be less than, in the case of the Term B-1 Loans, $1.0 million and increments of $1.0
million in excess thereof and, in the case of the Revolving Loans, $5.0 million and increments of
$1.0 million in excess thereof (or (A) if the aggregate amount of the Commitment or Loans of the
assigning Lender is a lesser amount, the entire amount of such Commitment or Loans, or (B) in any
other case, such lesser amount as the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise agree), (ii)
each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning
Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, except that this clause (ii) shall
not be construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s
rights and obligations in respect of one Class of Commitments and Loans, (iii) except in the case
of the assignment to an Affiliate of such Lender or an assignment required to be made pursuant to
Section 2.20, the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the
Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee
of $3,500 (it being understood that only one fee shall be required to be paid by a Lender in
respect of concurrent assignments to two or more Approved Funds), and (iv) the assignee, if it
shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.
Subject to acceptance and recording pursuant to Section 10.04(e), from and after the
effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, which effective date shall be at least
five Business Days after the execution thereof (unless otherwise determined by the Administrative
Agent), (A) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest
assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this
Agreement, and (B) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by
such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the
case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s
rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall
continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.16 and 10.05 with respect to
facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date

-102-

 

of such assignment, as well as to any
Fees accrued for its account and not yet paid). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights
or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for
purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and
obligations in accordance with Section 10.04(f).

          (c) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the assigning Lender thereunder
and the assignee thereunder shall be deemed to confirm to and agree with each other and the other
parties hereto as follows: (i) such assigning Lender warrants that it is the legal and beneficial
owner of the interest being assigned thereby free and clear of any adverse claim and that its
Commitment, and the outstanding balances of its Loans and participations in Swingline Loans, in
each case without giving effect to assignments thereof which have not become effective, are as set
forth in such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) except as set forth in (i) above, such assigning
Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any
statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement, or the
execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement,
any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto, or the
financial condition of the Borrower or any Subsidiary or the performance or observance by the
Borrower or any Subsidiary of any of their respective
obligations under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document
furnished pursuant hereto; (iii) such assignee represents and warrants that it is legally
authorized to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee confirms that it has
received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the most recent financial statements, if
any, delivered pursuant to Section 5.01 and such other documents and information as it has
deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and
Acceptance; (v) such assignee will independently and without reliance upon either Agent, such
assigning Lender or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem
appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action
under this Agreement; (vi) such assignee appoints and authorizes each Agent to take such action as
agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to such Agent
by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; (vii) such
assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all the obligations which by
the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender; and (viii) Schedule
2.01 shall be deemed to be amended to reflect the assigning Lender thereunder and the assignee
thereunder after giving effect thereto.

          (d) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall
maintain at one of its offices in The City of New York a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance
delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and
the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans and LC Disbursements, and participations in
Swingline Loans, owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the
“Register”). Except to the extent inconsistent with Section 2.07(d), the entries
in the Register shall be conclusive and the Borrower, the Agents, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders
shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a
Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The
Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, the Issuing Bank and any Lender, at any
reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

          (e) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning
Lender and an assignee, an Administrative Questionnaire completed in respect of the assignee
(unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee
referred to in Section 10.04(b) above and, if required, the written consent of the
Borrower, the Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent to such assignment,
the Administrative Agent shall (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) record the
information contained therein in the Register

-103-

 

and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders.
No assignment shall be effective unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this
Section 10.04(e).

          (f) Each Lender may without the consent of the Borrower, the Swingline Lender, the Issuing
Bank or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or
the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”)
in all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion
of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided, however, that (i) such
Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain
solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) each
Participant shall be entitled to the benefit of the cost protection provisions contained in
Sections 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and
had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 10.04(b) (provided that
no Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant to such Section than the
Lender would have been entitled to receive in respect of the interest transferred), and (iv) the
Borrower, the Agents, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly
with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, and
such Lender shall retain the sole right (which each
Lender agrees will not be limited by the terms of any participation agreement or other
agreement with a participant) to enforce the Loan Documents and to approve any amendment,
modification or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents (other than, without the consent of
the Participant, amendments, modifications or waivers described in Section 10.08(c) that
affect such Participant).

          (g) Any Lender or participant may, in connection with any assignment or participation or
proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 10.04, disclose to the
assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant any information relating to the
Borrower and its Subsidiaries furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of any of the Loan Parties;
provided that, prior to any such disclosure of information, each such assignee or
participant or proposed assignee or participant shall execute a confidentiality agreement in form
and substance consistent with provisions of Section 10.16.

          (h) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, at any
time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement
to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a
Federal Reserve Bank and this Section 10.04 shall not apply to any such pledge or
assignment of a security interest; provided that (x) no such pledge or assignment of a
security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any
such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto and (y) any foreclosure or similar
action shall be subject to the provisions of Section 10.04(b) concerning assignments and
shall not be effective to transfer any rights under this Agreement or in any Loan, Note or other
instrument evidencing the rights of a Lender under this Agreement until the requirements of
Section 10.04(b) concerning assignments are fully satisfied. In order to facilitate such a
pledge or assignment, the Borrower shall, at the request of the assigning Lender, duly execute and
deliver to the assigning Lender a promissory note or notes evidencing the Loans made to the
Borrower by the assigning Lender hereunder.

          (i) The Borrower shall not assign or delegate any of its rights or duties hereunder without
the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and any attempted assignment
without such consent shall be null and void.

          SECTION 10.05. Expenses; Indemnity. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay (i) all
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and
CGMI, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of Cahill Gordon & Reindel
llp, counsel for the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers, and local counsel, in
connection with the syndication of the

-104-

 

credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and
administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or in connection with any amendments,
modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions
hereby contemplated shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by
the Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of
Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses
incurred by the Lead Arranger, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank or
any Lender in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this
Agreement (including its rights under this Section), the other Loan Documents or the Loans made or
Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any
workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit, and, in
connection with any such enforcement or protection, the fees, charges and disbursements of any
other counsel for the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lead Arranger, the Issuing
Bank or any Lender; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be obligated to
pay for expenses incurred by a Lender in connection with the
assignment of Loans to an assignee Lender (except pursuant to Section 2.20) or the
sale of Loans to a Participant pursuant to Section 10.04.

          (b) The Borrower agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the
Co-Documentation Agents, the Lead Arranger, the Co-Arrangers, the Issuing Bank, each Lender, each
Affiliate of any of the foregoing Persons and each of their respective Related Parties (each such
Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and to hold each Indemnitee harmless from,
any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related reasonable out-of-pocket expenses,
including reasonable counsel fees, charges and disbursements, incurred by or asserted against any
Indemnitee arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result of (i) the execution or
delivery of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated
thereby, the performance by the parties hereto or thereto of their respective obligations
thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions and the other transactions contemplated thereby,
(ii) the use of the proceeds of the Loans or Letters of Credit (including any refusal by the
Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in
connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii)
any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not
any Indemnitee is a party thereto, or (iv) any actual or alleged presence or Release of Hazardous
Materials on any property owned or operated by the Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries, or any
Environmental Liability or Environmental Claim related in any way to the Borrower or the
Subsidiaries; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to
the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related reasonable expenses are
finally judicially determined to have arisen by reason of the Indemnitee’s gross negligence or
willful misconduct.

          (c) To the extent that the Borrower fails to promptly pay any amount to be paid by them to any
Agent, the Lead Arranger, the Co-Arrangers, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender under
paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to such Agent, the
Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, such Lender’s pro rata share (determined
as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such
unpaid amount (other than syndication expenses); provided that the unreimbursed expense or
indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by
or asserted against the applicable Agent, the Lead Arranger, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline
Lender in its capacity as such. For purposes hereof, a Lender’s “pro rata share” shall be
determined based upon its share of the sum of the total Revolving Credit Exposures, outstanding
Term B-1 Loans and unused Commitments at the time.

          (d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower shall not assert, and hereby
waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect,
consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in
connection with,

-105-

 

or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated
hereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof.

          (e) The provisions of this Section 10.05 shall remain operative and in full force and
effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Loans, the expiration of the
Commitments, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any
other Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent or any
Lender. All amounts due under this Section 10.05 shall be payable on written demand therefor.

          SECTION 10.06. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default or Event of Termination shall
have occurred and be continuing, each Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from time to
time, to the fullest extent permitted by law,
to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or
final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender to or for the
credit or the account of the Borrower against any of and all the obligations of the Borrower now or
hereafter existing under this Agreement and other Loan Documents held by such Lender, irrespective
of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such other Loan
Document and although such obligations may be unmatured. In connection with exercising its rights
pursuant to the previous sentence, a Lender may at any time use the Borrower’s credit balances with
the Lender to purchase at the Lender’s applicable spot rate of exchange any other currency or
currencies which the Lender considers necessary to reduce or discharge any amount due by the
Borrower to the Lender, and may apply that currency or those currencies in or towards payment of
those amounts. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and
remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have. Each Lender agrees
promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after making any such setoff.

          SECTION 10.07. Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (OTHER
THAN AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS) SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND
GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

          SECTION 10.08. Waivers; Amendment. (a) No failure or delay of any Agent, the Issuing
Bank or any Lender in exercising any power or right hereunder or under any Loan Document shall
operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power,
or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other
or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies
of the Agents, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are
cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies which they would otherwise have. No
waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any departure by
the Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by
Section 10.08(b), and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific
instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any
Default or Event of Default regardless of whether an Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank may have
had notice or knowledge of such Default or Event of Default at the time. No notice or demand on
the Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in
similar or other circumstances.

          (b) Subject to Sections 10.08(c), 10.08(d) and 10.08(e), no amendment,
modification, termination or waiver of any provision of any Loan Document, or consent to any
departure by any

-106-

 

Loan Party therefrom, shall in any event be effective without the written
concurrence of the Requisite Lenders.

          (c) Subject to Section 10.08(e), without the written consent of each Lender that would
be directly affected thereby (whose consent shall be sufficient therefor without the consent of the
Requisite Lenders), no amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent shall be effective
if the effect thereof would:

     (i) extend the scheduled final maturity of any Loan or Note;

     (ii) waive, reduce or postpone any scheduled repayment (but not prepayment);

     (iii) extend the stated expiration date of any Letter of Credit beyond the Revolving
Credit Maturity Date;

     (iv) reduce the rate of interest on any Loan (other than any waiver of any increase in
the interest rate applicable to any Loan pursuant to Section 2.08(c)) or any fee
payable hereunder or any prepayment premium payable hereunder, it being understood that any
amendment or modification to the financial definitions in this Agreement shall not
constitute a reduction in the rate of interest for purposes of this clause (iv);

     (v) extend the time for payment of any such interest or fees or prepayment premium;

     (vi) reduce or forgive the principal amount of any Loan or any reimbursement obligation
in respect of any Letter of Credit;

     (vii) amend, modify, terminate or waive any provision of Section 2.13(c),
Section 2.19, Section 7.06, Section 10.08(b), this Section
10.08(c), Section 10.08(d) or Section 10.08(e) (except for technical
amendments with respect to additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement which
affect the protections to such additional extensions of credit of the type provided to the
Revolving Credit Commitments and the Term B-1 Loans on the Original Effective Date);

     (viii) amend the definition of “Requisite Lenders” or “Commitment Percentage”;
provided, with the consent of Requisite Lenders, additional extensions of credit
pursuant hereto may be included in the determination of “Requisite Lenders” or “Commitment
Percentage” on substantially the same basis as the Revolving Credit Commitments, Revolving
Loans, Term B-1 Commitments and Term B-1 Loans, are included on the Original Effective Date;

     (ix) release all or substantially all of the Collateral or all or substantially all of
the Guarantors from the Guarantee except as expressly provided in the Loan Documents or
subordinate the Liens under any Security Document, it being understood that additional
extensions of credit under this Agreement pursuant to Section 2.21 or consented to
by the Requisite Lenders may be equally and ratably secured by the Collateral with the then
existing secured obligations under the Security Documents; or

     (x) consent to the assignment or transfer by any Loan Party of any of its rights and
obligations under any Loan Document.

-107-

 

          (d) Subject to Section 10.08(e), no amendment, modification, termination, waiver or
consent with respect to any provision of the Loan Documents, or consent to any departure by any
Loan Party therefrom, shall:

     (i) increase any Commitment of any Lender over the amount thereof then in effect
without the consent of such Lender; provided no amendment, modification,
termination, waiver or consent with respect to any condition precedent, covenant, Default or
Event of Default shall constitute an increase in any Commitment of any Lender;

     (ii) amend, modify, terminate or waive any provision hereof relating to the Swingline
Sublimit or the Swingline Loans without the consent of Swingline Lender;

     (iii) amend the definition of “Requisite Class Lenders” without the consent of
Requisite Class Lenders of each Class; provided, with the consent of the Requisite
Lenders,
additional extensions of credit pursuant hereto may be included in the determination of
such “Requisite Class Lenders” on substantially the same basis as the Revolving Credit
Commitments, Revolving Loans, Term B-1 Commitments and Term B-1 Loans are included on the
Original Effective Date;

     (iv) alter the required application of any repayments or prepayments as between Classes
pursuant to Section 2.05 without the consent of Requisite Class Lenders of each
Class which is being allocated a lesser repayment or prepayment as a result thereof;
provided the Requisite Lenders may waive, in whole or in part, any prepayment so
long as the application, as between Classes, of any portion of such prepayment is still
required to be made is not altered and, if additional extensions of term credit under this
Agreement consented to by the Requisite Lenders are made, such new term loans may be
included on a pro rata basis in the various prepayments required pursuant to
Section 2.05;

     (v) amend, modify, terminate or waive any obligation of Lenders relating to the
issuance of or purchase of participations in Letters of Credit without the written consent
of Administrative Agent and of Issuing Bank;

     (vi) amend, modify, terminate or waive any provision of Article VIII as the
same applies to any Agent, or any other provision hereof as the same applies to the rights
or obligations of any Agent, in each case without the consent of such Agent;

     (vii) amend, modify, terminate or waive any provision of any Loan Document specifying
the number or percentage of Lenders (or Lenders of any Class) required to waive, amend or
modify any rights thereunder or make any determination to grant any consent thereunder
without the written consent of each Lender (or each Lender of such Class, as the case may
be);

     (viii) amend, modify, terminate or waive the manner of application of any optional or
mandatory prepayments of Loans to the remaining amortization payments of the Term B-1 Loans
without the written consent of Term B-1 Lenders holding more than 50% of the outstanding
Term B-1 Loans;

     (ix) expressly amend, modify, supplement or waive any condition precedent in
Section 4.03 to any Revolving Credit Borrowing without the written consent of the
Requisite Revolving Lenders; or

     (x) increase the maximum duration of Interest Periods hereunder without the consent of
all Lenders;

-108-

 

provided that any waiver, amendment or modification of this Agreement that by its terms
affects the rights or duties under this Agreement of the Revolving Lender (but not the Term B-1
Lenders), or the Term B-1 Lenders (but not the Revolving Lenders) may be effected by an agreement
or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and requisite percentage in interest of the
affected Class of Lenders that would be required to consent thereto under this Section if such
Class of Lenders were the only Class of Lenders hereunder at the time.

          (e) If, in connection with any proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination of or to any
of the provisions of this Agreement (other than as contemplated by Sections 10.08(d)(i),
10.08(d)(ii), 10.08(d)(v) and 10.08(d)(vi)), the consent of the Requisite
Lenders is obtained but the consent of one or more of such other Lenders whose consent is required
is not obtained (such Lender, a
“Non-Consenting Lender”), then the Borrower, at its sole cost and expense, shall have
the right, so long as all Non-Consenting Lenders whose individual consent is required are treated
as described below, to transfer or assign, without recourse, all of the rights, obligations and
interests of each such Non-Consenting Lender or Lenders with respect to either this Agreement or
the Class of Loans or Commitments that is subject to the related change, waiver, discharge or
termination to one or more assignees (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained
in Section 10.04) approved by the Administrative Agent (and with respect to any Commitments
or Loans other than Term B-1 Commitments and Term B-1 Loans, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline
Lender), which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, so long as at the time of such transfer
or assignment, each such assignee consents to the proposed change, waiver, discharge or
termination; provided, however, that no Non-Consenting Lender shall be obligated to
make any such assignment unless, (x) such assignment shall not conflict with any law or any rule,
regulation or order of any Governmental Authority and (y) such assignee or the Borrower shall pay
to the affected Non-Consenting Lender in immediately available funds on the date of such assignment
the principal of and interest accrued to the date of payment on the Loans made by such
Non-Consenting Lender and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans held by such
Non-Consenting Lender and all commitment fees and other fees owed to such Non-Consenting Lender
hereunder and all other amounts accrued for such Non-Consenting Lender’s account or owed to it
hereunder (including, without limitation, any Commitment Fees).

          SECTION 10.09. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges
and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively the
“Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be
contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan or
participation in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such
Loan or participation hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be
limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have
been payable in respect of such Loan or participation but were not payable as a result of the
operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in
respect of other Loans or participations or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum
Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds
Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.

          SECTION 10.10. Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents
constitute the entire contract between the parties relative to the subject matter hereof. Any
previous agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof is superseded by
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided that any letter agreement relating to
the subject matter hereof between the Borrower and a Lender shall remain effective in accordance
with its terms to the extent it expressly survives the effectiveness of this Agreement. Nothing in
this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any
party other than the parties hereto and

-109-

 

thereto any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities
under or by reason of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

          It is intended by the parties hereto that (a) all obligations of the parties under the
Original Credit Agreement shall continue to exist under and be evidenced by this Amended and
Restated Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents; and (b) except as expressly stated herein
or amended hereby, the Original Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents are ratified and
confirmed as remaining unmodified and in full force and effect with respect to all Obligations; it
being understood that it is the
intent of the parties hereto that this Amended and Restated Credit Agreement does not
constitute a novation of rights, obligations and liabilities of the respective parties (including
the Obligations) existing under the Original Credit Agreement or evidence payment of all or any of
such obligations and liabilities and such rights, obligation and liabilities shall continue and
remain outstanding, and that this Amended and Restated Credit Agreement amends and restates in its
entirety the Original Credit Agreement.

          SECTION 10.11. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST
EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY
LITIGATION ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN
DOCUMENTS. EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER
PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF
LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES
HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, AS APPLICABLE,
BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 10.11.

          SECTION 10.12. Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained
in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in
any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein
and therein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. The parties shall endeavor in
good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid
provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal
or unenforceable provisions.

          SECTION 10.13. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by
different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original but
all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract, and shall become effective as
provided in Section 10.03. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Agreement by facsimile
transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Agreement.

          SECTION 10.14. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used
herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and are not to affect
the construction of, or to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

          SECTION 10.15. Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) The Borrower hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive
jurisdiction of any New York State court or Federal court of the United States of America sitting
in New York City, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out
of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or for recognition or enforcement of
any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all
claims in respect of any such 

-110-

 

action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such
New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties
hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be
enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.
Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, the Collateral
Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating
to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents against the Borrower or its properties in the courts
of any jurisdiction.

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

          (c) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner
provided for notices in Section 10.01. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan
Document will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner
permitted by law.

          SECTION
10.16. Confidentiality. None of the Administrative Agent, any
Co-Syndication Agent nor any Lender may disclose to any Person any non-public information of the
Loan Parties furnished to the Administrative Agent, any Co-Syndication Agent or the Lenders by the
Loan Parties (such information being referred to collectively herein as the “Loan Party
Information”), except that each of the Administrative Agent, the Co-Syndication Agents and the
Lenders may disclose Loan Party Information (i) to its and its affiliates’ employees, officers,
directors, agents, accountants, attorneys and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons
to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Loan Party
Information and instructed to keep such Loan Party Information confidential on substantially the
same terms as provided herein), (ii) to the extent required by any regulatory authority with
jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent or such Lender, (iii) to the extent required by
applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process; provided, that
unless specifically prohibited by applicable law, reasonable efforts shall be made to notify the
Borrower of any such request, (iv) to any other party to this Agreement, (v) in connection with the
exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any suit, action or
proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights
hereunder or thereunder, (vi) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same
as those of this Section 10.16, (A) to any pledge referred to in Section 10.04(h)
or any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its
rights or obligations under this Agreement and (B) each Qualified Counterparty party to a Hedging
Agreement and (vii) to the extent such Loan Party Information (A) is or becomes generally available
to the public on a nonconfidential basis other than as a result of a breach of this Section
10.16 by the Administrative Agent, the Co-Syndication Agents or such Lender, or (B) is or
becomes available to the Administrative Agent, such Co-Syndication Agent or such Lender on a
nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Loan Parties. Nothing in this provision shall
imply that any party has waived any privilege it may have with respect to advice it has received.

          SECTION 10.17. Fixed Income Direct Website Communications.

          (a) Delivery. (i) Each Loan Party hereby agrees that it will use commercially

materials that it is obligated to furnish to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement
and any other Loan Document, including, without limitation, all notices, requests, financial
statements, financial and other

Co-Documentation Agents, the Co-Arrangers or any Lender to give any notice or other communication

Agreement or any other Loan Document.

          (ii) Each Lender agrees that receipt of e-mail notification that such Communications have been

this Agreement and any other Loan Document. Each Lender further agrees to notify the
Administrative Agent in writing (including by electronic communication) promptly of any change in
its e-mail address or any extended disruption in its internet delivery services.

Parties may make the Communications available to the Lenders by posting the Communications on
Intralinks, Fixed Income Direct or a substantially similar electronic transmission systems (the
