pursuant to Section 7 of this Agreement to the extent necessary so that no
portion of such payments shall be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section
4999 of the Code and any corresponding and/or applicable state law provision;

federal or state income taxes payable with respect to the payments or benefits
described in (i) and (ii) above calculated at the maximum marginal individual
income tax rate for each year in which payments or benefits shall be realized by
Executive (based upon the rate in

                                       8
<PAGE>

effect for such year as set forth in the Code at the time of the first receipt
or realization of the foregoing), less (iv) the amount of excise taxes imposed
with respect to the payments or benefits described in (i) and (ii) above by
Section 499.9 of the Code and any corresponding and applicable state law
provision.

full force and effect for the continued benefit of the Executive for five (5)
years all employee benefit plans and programs in which the Executive was
entitled to participate immediately prior to the Date of Termination, provided
that the Executive's continued participation is possible under the general terms
and provisions of such plans and programs. In the event that the Executive's
participation in any such plan or program is barred, the Company shall arrange
to provide the Executive with benefits substantially similar to those which the
Executive would otherwise have been entitled to receive under such plans and
programs from which his continued participation is barred. However, in no event

other source, other than the Company's parent company, affiliate, or successor
corporations.

time ("DGCL "). The Company shall advance fees and expenses to Executive to the
full extent permitted by Section 145 of the DGCL, provided that Executive

directors to repay such advancement if Executive is ultimately determined not to
be entitled to indemnification. The provision of this Section 9 shall survive

(c) The Administrative Agent shall have the right, at any time and from time to time after the
Closing Date in good faith to establish, modify or eliminate Reserves upon two (2) Business Days
prior notice to the Borrower, (during which period the Administrative Agent shall be available to
discuss any such proposed Reserve with the Borrower; provided that no such prior notice
shall be required for (1) changes to any Reserves resulting solely by virtue of mathematical
calculations of the amount of the Reserve in accordance with the methodology of calculation
previously utilized (such as, but not limited to, Rent and Customer Credit Liabilities), or (2)
changes to Reserves or establishment of additional Reserves if a Material Adverse Effect has
occurred or it would be reasonably likely that a Material Adverse Effect to the Lenders would occur
were such Reserve not immediately changed or established.

(d) In the event that the Administrative Agent in good faith deems any Credit Card Receivable,
Health Care Insurance Receivable, Military Receivable, Non-Military Receivable, Inventory, Rolling
Stock, or Real Estate ineligible for inclusion in the Borrowing Base for any reason other than due
to the specific exclusions contained in the respective definitions of “Eligible Credit Card
Receivables”, “Eligible Health Care Insurance Receivables”, “Eligible Military Receivables”

2.02 Borrowings, Conversions and Continuations of Committed Loans.

(a) Committed Loans (other than Swing Line Loans) shall be either Base Rate Loans or LIBO Rate
Loans as the Borrower may request subject to and in accordance with this Section 2.02. All
Swing Line Loans shall be only Base Rate Loans. Subject to the other provisions of this
Section 2.02, Committed Borrowings of more than one Type may be incurred at the same time.

(b) Each Committed Borrowing, each conversion of Committed Loans from one Type to the other,
and each continuation of LIBO Rate Loans shall be made upon the Borrower’s irrevocable notice to
the Administrative Agent, which may be given by telephone. Each such notice must be received by
the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. (i) three Business Days prior to the requested
date of any Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of LIBO Rate Loans or of any conversion of
LIBO Rate Loans to Base Rate Loans, and (ii) on the requested date of any Borrowing of Base Rate
Loans. Each telephonic notice by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.02(b) must be
confirmed promptly by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a written Committed Loan Notice,
appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower. Each Borrowing of,
conversion to or continuation of LIBO Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $3,000,000 or a
whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. Except as provided in Sections 2.03(c) and
2.04(c), each Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount
of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof. Each Committed Loan Notice (whether
telephonic or written) shall specify (i) whether the Borrower is requesting a Committed Borrowing,
a conversion of Committed Loans from one Type to the other, or a continuation of LIBO Rate Loans,
(ii) the requested date of the Borrowing, conversion or continuation, as the case may be (which
shall be a Business Day), (iii) the principal amount of Committed Loans to be borrowed, converted
or continued, (iv) the Type of Committed Loans to be borrowed or to which existing Committed Loans
are to be converted, and (v) if applicable, the duration of the Interest Period with respect
thereto. If the Borrower fails to specify a Type of Committed Loan in a Committed Loan Notice or
if the Borrower fails to give a timely notice requesting a conversion or continuation, then the
applicable Committed Loans shall be made as, or converted to, Base Rate Loans. Any such automatic
conversion to Base Rate Loans shall be effective as of the last day of the Interest Period then in
effect with respect to the applicable LIBO Rate Loans. If the Borrower requests a Borrowing of,
conversion to, or continuation of LIBO Rate Loans in any such Committed Loan Notice, but fails to
specify an Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Swing Line Loan may not be converted to a LIBO
Rate Loan.

(c) Following receipt of a Committed Loan Notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly
notify each Lender of the amount of its Applicable Percentage of the applicable Committed Loans,
and if no timely notice of a conversion or continuation is provided by the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the details of any automatic conversion to Base
Rate Loans described in Section 2.02(b). In the case of a Committed Borrowing, each Lender
shall make the amount of its Committed Loan available to the Administrative Agent in immediately
available funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later than 3:00 p.m. on the Business Day
specified in the applicable Committed Loan Notice. Upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions
set forth in Section 4.02 (and, if such Borrowing is the initial Credit Extension,
Section 4.01), the Administrative Agent shall use reasonable efforts to make all funds so
received available to the Borrower in like funds by no later than (A) 3:30 p.m. on the day of
receipt by the Administrative Agent with respect to Base Rate Loans and (B) 1:00 p.m. on third
Business Day following the day of receipt by the Administrative Agent of a request by the Borrower
for LIBO Rate Loans either by (i) crediting the account of the Borrower on the books of Bank of
America with the amount of such funds or (ii) wire transfer of such funds, in each case in
accordance with instructions provided to (and reasonably acceptable to) the Administrative Agent by
the Borrower; provided, however, that if, on the date the Committed Loan Notice
with respect to such Borrowing is given by the Borrower, there are L/C Borrowings outstanding, then
the proceeds of such Borrowing, first, shall be applied to the payment in full of any such
L/C Borrowings, and second, shall be made available to the Borrower as provided above.

(d) So long as a Cash Dominion Event is not continuing, the Administrative Agent shall
promptly deliver to the Borrower copies of all invoices and supporting documentation reflecting the
incurrence of charges and Credit Party Expenses and any other fees and expenses hereunder by the
Loan Parties. In the event that the Borrower shall not have paid such invoices within thirty (30)
days after delivery thereof, or at any time that a Cash Dominion Event shall be continuing, the
Administrative Agent, without the request of the Borrower, may advance any service charge or Credit
Party Expenses, and may charge the same to the Loan Account notwithstanding that an Overadvance may
result thereby. At any time, without the request of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent may
advance any interest or fees or other payment to which any Credit Party is entitled from the Loan
Parties pursuant hereto or any other Loan Document, and may charge the same to the Loan Account,
notwithstanding that an Overadvance may result thereby. The Administrative Agent shall advise the
Borrower of any such advance or charge promptly after the making thereof. Such action on the part
of the Administrative Agent shall not constitute a waiver of the Administrative Agent’s rights and
the Borrower’ obligations under Section 2.05(c). Any amount which is added to the
principal balance of the Loan Account as provided in this Section 2.02(d) shall bear
interest at the interest rate then and thereafter applicable to Base Rate Loans.

(e) Except as otherwise provided herein, a LIBO Rate Loan may be continued or converted only
on the last day of an Interest Period for such LIBO Rate Loan. During the existence of a Default,
no Loans may be requested as, converted to or continued as LIBO Rate Loans without the Consent of
the Required Lenders.

(f) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the
interest rate applicable to any Interest Period for LIBO Rate Loans upon determination of such
interest rate. At any time that Base Rate Loans are outstanding, the Administrative Agent shall
notify the Borrower and the Lenders of any change in Bank of America’s prime rate used in
determining the Base Rate promptly following the public announcement of such change.

(g) After giving effect to all Committed Borrowings, all conversions of Committed Loans from
one Type to the other, and all continuations of Committed Loans as the same Type, there shall not
be more than 10 Interest Periods in effect with respect to LIBO Rate Loans.

(h) The Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Swing Line Lender and the L/C Issuer shall
have no obligation to make any Loan or to provide any Letter of Credit if an Overadvance would
result. The Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, make Permitted Overadvances for the
purposes set forth herein without the consent of the Lenders, the Swing Line Lender and the L/C
Issuer and each Lender shall be bound thereby. Any Permitted Overadvance may constitute a Swing
Line Loan. A Permitted Overadvance is for the account of the Borrower and shall constitute a Loan
and an Obligation and shall be repaid by the Borrower in accordance with the provisions of
Section 2.05(c). The making of any such Permitted Overadvance on any one occasion shall
not obligate the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make or permit any Permitted Overadvance on
any other occasion or to permit such Permitted Overadvances to remain outstanding. The making by
the Administrative Agent of a Permitted Overadvance shall not modify or abrogate any of the
provisions of Section 2.03 regarding the Lenders’ obligations to purchase participations
with respect to Letters of Credit. The Administrative Agent shall have no liability for, and no
Loan Party or Credit Party shall have the right to, or shall, bring any claim of any kind
whatsoever against the Administrative Agent with respect to “inadvertent Overadvances” (i.e. where
an Overadvance results from changed circumstances beyond the control of the Administrative Agent
(such as a reduction in the collateral value)) regardless of the amount of any such
Overadvance(s).

2.03 Letters of Credit.

(a) The Letter of Credit Commitment.

(i) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (A) the L/C Issuer agrees, in
reliance upon the agreements of the Lenders set forth in this Section 2.03, (1) from time
to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date until the Letter of Credit
Expiration Date, to issue Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrower, and to amend or extend
Letters of Credit previously issued by it, in accordance with Section 2.03(b) below, and (2) to
honor drawings under the Letters of Credit; and (B) the Lenders severally agree to participate in
Letters of Credit issued for the account of the Borrower and any drawings thereunder;
provided that after giving effect to any L/C Credit Extension with respect to any Letter of
Credit, (x) the Total Outstandings shall not exceed the lesser of the Aggregate Commitments or the
Borrowing Base, (y) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Committed Loans of any Lender,
plus such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations,
plus such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all Swing Line Loans
shall not exceed such Lender’s Commitment, and (z) the Outstanding Amount of the L/C Obligations
shall not exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit. Each request by the Borrower for the issuance or
amendment of a Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be a representation by the Borrower that the L/C
Credit Extension so requested complies with the conditions set forth in the proviso to the
preceding sentence. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof,
the Borrower’s ability to obtain Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and accordingly the
Borrower may, during the foregoing period, obtain Letters of Credit to replace Letters of Credit
that have expired or that have been drawn upon and reimbursed.

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

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

(B) the expiry date of such requested Commercial Letter of Credit would occur
more than 120 days after the date of issuance or last extension, unless the Required Lenders
have approved such expiry date; or

(C) the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur after the
Letter of Credit Expiration Date, unless either such Letter of Credit is Cash Collateralized
on or prior to the Letter of Credit Expiration Date or all the Lenders have approved such
expiry date.

(iii) The L/C Issuer shall not issue any Letter of Credit without the prior consent of the
Administrative Agent if:

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

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

(C) such Letter of Credit is to be denominated in a currency other than
Dollars; provided that if the L/C Issuer, in its discretion, issues a Letter of
Credit denominated in a currency other than Dollars, all reimbursements by the Borrower of
the honoring of any drawing under such Letter of Credit shall be paid in the currency in
which such Letter of Credit was denominated;

(D) such Letter of Credit contains any provisions for automatic reinstatement
of the Stated Amount after any drawing thereunder; or

(E) a default of any Lender’s obligations to fund under Section
2.03(c) exists or any Lender is at such time a Defaulting Lender hereunder, unless the
L/C Issuer has entered into satisfactory arrangements with the Borrower or such Lender to
eliminate the L/C Issuer’s risk with respect to such Lender.

(iv) The L/C Issuer shall not amend any Letter of Credit if the L/C Issuer would not be
permitted at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof or
if the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to such Letter
of Credit.

(v) The L/C Issuer shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit
issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and the L/C Issuer shall have all of the
benefits and immunities (A) provided to the Administrative Agent in Article IX with respect
to any acts taken or omissions suffered by the L/C Issuer in connection with Letters of Credit
issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and Issuer Documents pertaining to such Letters of
Credit as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent” as used in Article IX included the
L/C Issuer with respect to such acts or omissions, and (B) as additionally provided herein with
respect to the L/C Issuer.

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

(i) Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, upon the request of
the Borrower delivered to the L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) in the form of a
Letter of Credit Application, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the
Borrower. Such Letter of Credit Application must be received by the L/C Issuer and the
Administrative Agent not later than 3:00 p.m. at least two Business Days (or such other date and
time as the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer may agree in a particular instance in their
sole discretion) prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be. In
the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit
Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the L/C Issuer: (A) the proposed
issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (B) the amount
thereof; (C) the expiry date thereof; (D) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (E) the
documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (F) the full text
of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; and (G)
such other matters as the L/C Issuer may require. In the case of a request for an amendment of any
outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail
satisfactory to the L/C Issuer (A) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (B) the proposed date of
amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (C) the nature of the proposed amendment; and
(D) such other matters as the L/C Issuer may require. Additionally, the Borrower shall furnish to
the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent such other documents and information pertaining to such
requested Letter of Credit issuance or amendment, including any Issuer Documents, as the L/C Issuer
or the Administrative Agent may require.

(ii) Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, the L/C Issuer will confirm
with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has
received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application from the Borrower and, if not, the L/C Issuer
will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Unless the L/C Issuer has received
written notice from the Administrative Agent or any Loan Party prior to the requested date of
issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions
contained in Article IV shall not then be satisfied, then, subject to the terms and
conditions hereof, the L/C Issuer shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the
account of the Borrower or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in
accordance with the L/C Issuer’s usual and customary business practices. Immediately upon the
issuance or amendment of each Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to (without any further
action), and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the L/C Issuer,
without recourse or warranty, a risk participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to
the product of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage times the amount of such Letter of
Credit. Upon any change in the Commitments under this Agreement, it is hereby agreed that with
respect to all L/C Obligations, there shall be an automatic adjustment to the participations hereby
created to reflect the new Applicable Percentages of the assigning and assignee Lenders.

(iii) If the Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the L/C
Issuer may, in its sole and absolute discretion, agree to issue a Standby Letter of Credit that has
automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”);
provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit the L/C Issuer to
prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of
issuance of such Standby Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not
later than a day (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”) in each such twelve-month period to be
agreed upon at the time such Standby Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the
L/C Issuer, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the L/C Issuer for any
such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders shall be
deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the L/C Issuer to permit the extension of such
Standby Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the Letter of Credit
Expiration Date; provided, however, that the L/C Issuer shall not permit any such
extension if (A) the L/C Issuer has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no
obligation, at such time to issue such Standby Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended)
under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of clause (ii) or (iii) of Section
2.03(a) or otherwise), or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing)
on or before the day that is three Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date (1) from the
Administrative Agent that the Required Lenders have elected not to permit such extension or (2)
from the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Borrower that one or more of the applicable
conditions specified in Section 4.02 is not then satisfied, and in each such case directing
the L/C Issuer not to permit such extension.

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

(c) Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations.

(i) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under
such Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer shall notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent
thereof; provided, however, that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice
shall not relieve the Borrower of their obligation to reimburse the L/C Issuer and the Lenders with
respect to any such payment. Not later than 12:00 p.m. on the date of any payment by the L/C
Issuer under a Letter of Credit (each such date, an “Honor Date”), the Borrower shall
reimburse the L/C Issuer through the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the amount of such
drawing. If the Borrower fails to so reimburse the L/C Issuer by such time, the Administrative
Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing
(the “Unreimbursed Amount”), and the amount of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof.
In such event, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Committed Borrowing of Base Rate
Loans to be disbursed on the Honor Date in an amount equal to the Unreimbursed Amount, without
regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.02 for the principal amount of
Base Rate Loans, but subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Aggregate Commitments
and the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (other than the delivery of a Committed Loan
Notice). Any notice given by the L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this
Section 2.03(c)(i) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing;
provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the
conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

(ii) Each Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) received by
12:00 p.m., make funds available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer at
the Administrative Agent’s Office in an amount equal to its Applicable Percentage of the
Unreimbursed Amount not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in such notice by the
Administrative Agent, whereupon, subject to the provisions of Section 2.03(c)(iii), each
Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Loan to the Borrower
in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the L/C Issuer.

(iii) With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a Committed
Borrowing of Base Rate Loans because the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 cannot be
satisfied or for any other reason, the Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the L/C
Issuer an L/C Borrowing in the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount that is not so refinanced, which
L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest
at the Default Rate. In such event, each Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the
account of the L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(ii) shall be deemed payment in
respect of its participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such
Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.03.

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

(v) Each Lender’s obligation to make Committed Loans or L/C Advances to reimburse the L/C
Issuer for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this Section 2.03(c),
shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A)
any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the
L/C Issuer, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or
continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar
to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Lender’s obligation to make
Committed Loans pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in
Section 4.02 (other than delivery by the Borrower of a Committed Loan Notice). No such
making of an L/C Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to
reimburse the L/C Issuer for the amount of any payment made by the L/C Issuer under any Letter of
Credit, together with interest as provided herein.

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

(d) Repayment of Participations.

(i) At any time after the L/C Issuer has made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has
received from any Lender such Lender’s L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with
Section 2.03(c), if the Administrative Agent receives for the account of the L/C Issuer any
payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed Amount or interest thereon (whether directly from
the Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the
Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent will distribute to such Lender its Applicable
Percentage thereof (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period
of time during which such Lender’s L/C Advance was outstanding) in the same funds as those received
by the Administrative Agent.

(ii) If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer
pursuant to Section 2.03(d)(i) is required to be returned under any of the circumstances
described in Section 10.05 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the L/C
Issuer in its discretion), each Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the
L/C Issuer its Applicable Percentage thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest
thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Lender, at a rate
per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the
Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination
of this Agreement.

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

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

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

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

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

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

(vi) the fact that any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

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

(f) Role of L/C Issuer. Each Lender and the Borrower agree that, in paying any
drawing under a Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer shall not have any responsibility to obtain any
document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter
of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the
authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the L/C Issuer, the
Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or
assignee of the L/C Issuer shall be liable to any Lender for (i) any action taken or omitted in
connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as
applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful
misconduct; (iii) 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 or any error in
interpretation of technical terms; or (iv) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or
enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Issuer Document.
The Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee
with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this
assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Borrower’ pursuing such rights and
remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement.
None of the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any
correspondent, participant or assignee of the L/C Issuer shall be liable or responsible for any of
the matters described in clauses (i) through (v) of Section 2.03(e); provided,
however, that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower may
have a claim against the L/C Issuer, and the L/C Issuer may be liable to the Borrower, to the
extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages
suffered by the Borrower which the Borrower proves were caused by the L/C Issuer’s willful
misconduct or gross negligence or the L/C Issuer’s willful failure to pay under any Letter of
Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly
complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in
limitation of the foregoing, the L/C Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in
order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to
the contrary (or the L/C Issuer may 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), and the L/C Issuer
shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or
assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits
thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective
for any reason.

(g) Cash Collateral. Upon the request of the Administrative Agent or the Required
Lenders, (i) if the L/C Issuer has honored any full or partial drawing request under any Letter of
Credit and such drawing has resulted in an L/C Borrowing, or (ii) if, as of the Letter of Credit
Expiration Date, any L/C Obligation for any reason remains outstanding, the Borrower shall, in each
case, immediately Cash Collateralize the then Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations.
Sections 2.05 and 8.02(c) set forth certain additional requirements to deliver Cash
Collateral hereunder. For purposes of this Section 2.03, Section 2.05 and
Section 8.02(c), “Cash Collateralize” means to pledge and deposit with or deliver
to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the L/C Issuer and the Lenders, as collateral for
the L/C Obligations, cash or deposit account balances in an amount equal to 105% of the Outstanding
Amount of all L/C Obligations, pursuant to documentation in form and substance satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer (which documents are hereby Consented to by the Lenders).
Derivatives of such term have corresponding meanings. The Borrower hereby grants to the Collateral
Agent a security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein and all
proceeds of the foregoing. Cash Collateral shall be maintained in blocked, interest bearing
deposit accounts at Bank of America. If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that any
funds held as Cash Collateral are subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the
Administrative Agent or that the total amount of such funds is less than the aggregate Outstanding
Amount of all L/C Obligations, the Borrower will, forthwith upon demand by the Administrative
Agent, pay to the Administrative Agent, as additional funds to be deposited as Cash Collateral, an
amount equal to the excess of (x) such aggregate Outstanding Amount over (y) the total amount of
funds, if any, then held as Cash Collateral that the Administrative Agent determines to be free and
clear of any such right and claim. Upon the drawing of any Letter of Credit for which funds are on
deposit as Cash Collateral, such funds shall be applied, to the extent permitted under applicable
Laws, to reimburse the L/C Issuer and, to the extent not so applied, shall thereafter be applied to
satisfy other Obligations.

(h) Applicability of ISP and UCP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the L/C Issuer
and the Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued, (i) the rules of the ISP shall apply to each
Standby Letter of Credit, and (ii) the rules of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary
Credits, as most recently published by the International Chamber of Commerce at the time of
issuance shall apply to each Commercial Letter of Credit.

(i) Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the
account of each Lender in accordance with its Applicable Percentage a Letter of Credit fee (the
“Letter of Credit Fee”) for each Letter of Credit equal to the Applicable Margin times the
daily Stated Amount under such Letter of Credit (whether or not such maximum amount is then in
effect under such Letter of Credit). For purposes of computing the daily amount available to be
drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of the Letter of Credit shall be determined in
accordance with Section 1.06. Letter of Credit Fees shall be (i) due and payable on the
first Business Day of each month, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance
of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand, and
(ii) computed on a monthly basis in arrears. If there is any change in the Applicable Margin
during any quarter, the daily amount available to be drawn under of each Letter of Credit shall be
computed and multiplied by the Applicable Margin separately for each period during such quarter
that such Applicable Margin was in effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, while any Event of Default exists, the Administrative Agent may, and upon the request of
the Required Lenders shall, notify the Borrower that all Letter of Credit Fees shall accrue at the
Default Rate and thereafter such Letter of Credit Fees shall accrue at the Default Rate to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.

(j) Fronting Fee and Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to L/C Issuer. The
Borrower shall pay directly to the L/C Issuer for its own account a fronting fee with respect to
each Letter of Credit, at a rate equal to 0.125% per cent per annum, computed on the amount of such
Letter of Credit (a “Fronting Fee”), and payable upon the issuance thereof, and (ii) with
respect to any amendment of a Letter of Credit increasing the amount of such Letter of Credit, at a
rate separately agreed between the Borrower and the L/C Issuer, computed on the amount of such
increase, and payable upon the effectiveness of such amendment. Such fronting fees shall be due
and payable on the first Business Day of each month, commencing with the first such date to occur
after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter
on demand. For purposes of computing the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of
Credit, the amount of the Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section
1.06. In addition, the Borrower shall pay directly to the L/C Issuer for its own account the
customary issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing fees, and other standard costs and
charges, of the L/C Issuer relating to letters of credit as from time to time in effect. Such
customary fees and standard costs and charges are due and payable on demand and are nonrefundable.

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

2.04 Swing Line Loans.

(a) The Swing Line. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swing
Line Lender agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this
Section 2.04, to make loans (each such loan, a “Swing Line Loan”) to the Borrower
from time to time on any Business Day during the Availability Period in an aggregate amount not to
exceed at any time outstanding the amount of the Swing Line Sublimit, notwithstanding the fact that
such Swing Line Loans, when aggregated with the Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of
Committed Loans and L/C Obligations of the Lender acting as Swing Line Lender, may exceed the
amount of such Lender’s Commitment; provided, however, that after giving effect to
any Swing Line Loan, (i) the Total Outstandings shall not exceed the lesser of (A) the Aggregate
Commitments, or (B) the Borrowing Base, and (ii) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Committed
Loans of any Lender at such time, plus such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the
Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations at such time, plus such Lender’s Applicable
Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all Swing Line Loans at such time shall not exceed such
Lender’s Commitment, and provided, further, that the Borrower shall not use the
proceeds of any Swing Line Loan to refinance any outstanding Swing Line Loan. Within the foregoing
limits, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower may borrow under this
Section 2.04, prepay under Section 2.05, and reborrow under this Section
2.04. Each Swing Line Loan shall bear interest only at a rate based on the Base Rate.
Immediately upon the making of a Swing Line Loan, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Swing Line Lender a risk participation
in such Swing Line Loan in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage
times the amount of such Swing Line Loan.

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

(c) Refinancing of Swing Line Loans.

(i) The Swing Line Lender at any time in its sole and absolute discretion may request, on
behalf of the Borrower (which hereby irrevocably authorize the Swing Line Lender to so request on
their behalf) and shall request at least weekly, that each Lender make a Base Rate Loan in an
amount equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the amount of Swing Line Loans then
outstanding. Such request shall be made in writing (which written request shall be deemed to be a
Committed Loan Notice for purposes hereof) and in accordance with the requirements of Section
2.02, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified therein for the principal amount of
Base Rate Loans, but subject to the unutilized portion of the Aggregate Commitments and the
conditions set forth in Section 4.02. The Swing Line Lender shall furnish the Borrower
with a copy of the applicable Committed Loan Notice promptly after delivering such notice to the
Administrative Agent. Each Lender shall make an amount equal to its Applicable Percentage of the
amount specified in such Committed Loan Notice received by 12:00 p.m. available to the
Administrative Agent in immediately available funds for the account of the Swing Line Lender at the
Administrative Agent’s Office not later than 1:00 p.m. on the day specified in such Committed Loan
Notice, whereupon, subject to Section 2.04(c)(ii), each Lender that so makes funds
available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Loan to the Borrower in such amount. The
Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the Swing Line Lender.

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

(iii) If any Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the
Swing Line Lender any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing
provisions of this Section 2.04(c) by the time specified in Section 2.04(c)(i), the
Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative
Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is
required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Swing Line Lender at a
rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Swing
Line Lender in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation plus any reasonable
administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Swing Line Lender in
connection with the foregoing. If such Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as
aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Committed Loan included in the
relevant Committed Borrowing or funded participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan, as the case
may be. A certificate of the Swing Line Lender submitted to any Lender (through the
Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (iii) shall be conclusive
absent manifest error.

(iv) Each Lender’s obligation to make Committed Loans or to purchase and fund risk
participations in Swing Line Loans pursuant to this Section 2.04(c) shall be absolute and
unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff,
counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the Swing Line
Lender, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the occurrence or
continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar
to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Lender’s obligation to make
Committed Loans pursuant to this Section 2.04(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in
Section 4.02. No such funding of risk participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the
obligation of the Borrower to repay Swing Line Loans, together with interest as provided herein.

(d) Repayment of Participations.

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

(ii) If any payment received by the Swing Line Lender in respect of principal or interest on
any Swing Line Loan is required to be returned by the Swing Line Lender under any of the
circumstances described in Section 10.05 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into
by the Swing Line Lender in its discretion), each Lender shall pay to the Swing Line Lender its
Applicable Percentage thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the
date of such demand to the date such amount is returned, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal
Funds Rate. The Administrative Agent will make such demand upon the request of the Swing Line
Lender. The obligations of the Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the
Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

(e) Interest for Account of Swing Line Lender. The Swing Line Lender shall be
responsible for invoicing the Borrower for interest on the Swing Line Loans. Until each Lender
funds its Base Rate Loan or risk participation pursuant to this Section 2.04 to refinance
such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of any Swing Line Loan, interest in respect of such Applicable
Percentage shall be solely for the account of the Swing Line Lender.

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

2.05 Prepayments.

(a) The Borrower may, upon irrevocable notice from the Borrower to the Administrative Agent,
at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay Committed Loans in whole or in part without
premium or penalty; provided that (i) such notice must be received by the Administrative
Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. (A) three Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of LIBO Rate
Loans and (B) on the date of prepayment of Base Rate Loans; (ii) any prepayment of LIBO Rate Loans
shall be in a principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof; and
(iii) any prepayment of Base Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $500,000 or a whole
multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof or, in each case, if less, the entire principal amount
thereof then outstanding. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment
and the Type(s) of Loans to be prepaid and, if LIBO Rate Loans, the Interest Period(s) of such
Loans. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of each such
notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such prepayment. If such
notice is given by the Borrower, the Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount
specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Any prepayment of
a LIBO Rate Loan shall be accompanied by all accrued interest on the amount prepaid, together with
any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05. Each such prepayment shall be
applied to the Committed Loans of the Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable
Percentages.

(b) The Borrower may, upon irrevocable notice from the Borrower to the Swing Line Lender (with
a copy to the Administrative Agent), at any time or from time to time, voluntarily prepay Swing
Line Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (i) such notice
must be received by the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. on
the date of the prepayment, and (ii) any such prepayment shall be in a minimum principal amount of
$100,000. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment. If such notice
is given by the Borrower, the Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified
in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein.

(c) If for any reason the Total Outstandings at any time exceed the lesser of the Aggregate
Commitments or the Borrowing Base, each as then in effect, the Borrower shall immediately prepay
Loans, Swing Line Loans and L/C Borrowings and/or Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations (other
than L/C Borrowings) in an aggregate amount equal to such excess; provided,
however, that the Borrower shall not be required to Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations
pursuant to this Section 2.05(c) unless after the prepayment in full of the Loans the Total
Outstandings exceed the lesser of the Aggregate Commitments or the Borrowing Base, each as then in
effect.

(d) The Borrower shall prepay the Loans and Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations in
accordance with the provisions of Section 6.13 hereof. In addition, the Borrower shall
prepay the Loans and Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations in an amount equal to the Net Cash
Proceeds received by a Loan Party on account of a Prepayment Event, irrespective of whether a Cash
Dominion Event then exists and is continuing; provided, however, that such amounts prepaid
under this Section 2.05(d) in respect of LIBO Rate Loans shall be held in the Concentration Account
and applied upon the next such date that such LIBO Rate Loan to be repaid under Section
2.05(a) hereof is scheduled to become due under this Agreement.

(e) Prepayments made pursuant to this Section 2.05, first, shall be applied
ratably to the L/C Borrowings and the Swing Line Loans, second, shall be applied ratably to
the outstanding Committed Loans, third, shall be used to Cash Collateralize the remaining
L/C Obligations; and, fourth, the amount remaining, if any, after the prepayment in full of
all L/C Borrowings, Swing Line Loans and Committed Loans outstanding at such time and the Cash
Collateralization of the remaining L/C Obligations in full may be retained by the Borrower for use
in the ordinary course of its business. Upon the drawing of any Letter of Credit that has been
Cash Collateralized, the funds held as Cash Collateral shall be applied (without any further action
by or notice to or from the Borrower or any other Loan Party) to reimburse the L/C Issuer or the
Lenders, as applicable.

2.06 Termination or Reduction of Commitments. (a) The Borrower may, upon irrevocable
notice from the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, terminate the Aggregate Commitments,
the Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Swing Line Sublimit or from time to time permanently
reduce the Aggregate Commitments, the Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Swing Line Sublimit;
provided that (i) any such notice shall be received by the Administrative Agent not
later than 1:00 p.m. three Business Days prior to the date of termination or reduction, (ii)
any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of $10,000,000 or any whole
multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, (iii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce
(A) the Aggregate Commitments if, after giving effect thereto and to any concurrent
prepayments hereunder, the Total Outstandings would exceed the Aggregate Commitments, (B)
the Letter of Credit Sublimit if, after giving effect thereto, the Outstanding Amount of L/C
Obligations not fully Cash Collateralized hereunder would exceed the Letter of Credit
Sublimit, and (C) the Swing Line Sublimit if, after giving effect thereto, and to any
concurrent payments hereunder, the Outstanding Amount of Swing Line Loans hereunder would
exceed the Swing Line Sublimit.

(b) If, after giving effect to any reduction of the Aggregate Commitments, the Letter
of Credit Sublimit or the Swing Line Sublimit exceeds the amount of the Aggregate
Commitments, such Letter of Credit Sublimit or Swing Line Sublimit shall be automatically
reduced by the amount of such excess.

(c) The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of any termination or
reduction of the Letter of Credit Sublimit, Swing Line Sublimit or the Aggregate Commitments
under this Section 2.06. Upon any reduction of the Aggregate Commitments, the
Commitment of each Lender shall be reduced by such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such
reduction amount. All fees (including, without limitation, commitment fees and Letter of
Credit Fees) in respect of the Aggregate Commitments accrued until the effective date of any
termination of the Aggregate Commitments shall be paid on the effective date of such
termination.

2.07 Repayment of Loans.

(a) The Borrower shall repay to the Lenders on the Termination Date the aggregate principal
amount of Committed Loans outstanding on such date.

(b) To the extent not previously paid, the Borrower shall repay the outstanding balance of the
Swing Line Loans on the Termination Date.

2.08 Interest.

(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.08(b) below, (i) each LIBO Rate Loan shall
bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Period at a rate per
annum equal to the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin; (ii) each
Base Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable
borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin; and
(iii) each Swing Line Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the
applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable
Margin.

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

(ii) If any other Event of Default exists, then the Administrative Agent may, and upon the
request of the Required Lenders shall, notify the Borrower that all outstanding Obligations shall
thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default
Rate.

(iii) Accrued and unpaid interest under this Section 2.08(b) (including interest on
past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand.

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

2.09 Fees In addition to certain fees described in subsections (i) and (j) of Section
2.03:

(a) Commitment Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the
account of each Lender in accordance with its Applicable Percentage, a commitment fee equal to the
0.25% per annum times the actual daily amount by which the Aggregate Commitments exceed the
sum of (i) the Outstanding Amount of Committed Loans and (ii) the Outstanding Amount of L/C
Obligations. The commitment fee shall accrue at all times during the Availability Period,
including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in Article IV is not met,
and shall be due and payable monthly in arrears on the first Business Day of each month, commencing
with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the last day of the Availability
Period.

(b) Other Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Arranger and the Administrative Agent
for their own respective accounts fees in the amounts and at the times specified in the Fee Letter.
Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever.

2.10 Computation of Interest and Fees. All computations of interest and fees shall be made on
the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed. Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the
day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day
on which the Loan or such portion is paid, provided that any Loan that is repaid on the
same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.12(a), bear interest for one day.
Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be
conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

2.11 Evidence of Debt.

(a) The Credit Extensions made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or
records maintained by the Administrative Agent (the “Loan Account”) in the ordinary course
of business. In addition, each Lender may record in such Lender’s internal records, an appropriate
notation evidencing the date and amount of each Loan from such Lender, each payment and prepayment
of principal of any such Loan, and each payment of interest, fees and other amounts due in
connection with the Obligations due to such Lender. The accounts or records maintained by the
Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the
Credit Extensions and interest, fees and other Obligations and payments thereon. Any failure to so
record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the
Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any
conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of
the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative
Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender made through
the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the
Administrative Agent) a Note, which shall evidence such Lender’s Loans in addition to such accounts
or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if
applicable), amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto. Upon receipt of
an affidavit of a Lender as to the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of such Lender’s Note and
upon cancellation of such Note, the Borrower will issue, in lieu thereof, a replacement Note in
favor of such Lender, in the same principal amount thereof and otherwise of like tenor.

(b) In addition to the accounts and records referred to in Section 2.11(a), each Lender and
the Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records
evidencing the purchases and sales by such Lender of participations in Letters of Credit and Swing
Line Loans. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by the
Administrative Agent and the accounts and records of any Lender in respect of such matters, the
accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.

2.12 Payments Generally; Administrative Agent’s Clawback.

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

(b) (i) Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Administrative Agent. Unless the
Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any
Borrowing of LIBO Rate Loans (or in the case of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, prior to 1:00
p.m. on the date of such Borrowing) that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative
Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender
has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.02 (or in the case
of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, that such Lender has made such share available in accordance
with and at the time required by Section 2.02) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make
available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made
its share of the applicable Committed Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the
applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on
demand such corresponding amount in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day
from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date
of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender,
the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in
accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation plus any reasonable
administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in
connection with the foregoing, and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the
interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay such
interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative
Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for
such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Committed Borrowing to the
Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Committed Loan
included in such Committed Borrowing. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to
any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the
Administrative Agent.

(ii) Payments by Borrower; Presumptions by Administrative Agent. Unless the
Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the time at which any
payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the L/C Issuer
hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that
the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon
such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount due.
In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the
L/C Issuer, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on
demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, in immediately available funds
with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to
but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds
Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on
interbank compensation.

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

(c) Failure to Satisfy Conditions Precedent. If any Lender makes available to the
Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing
provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available to the Borrower by the
Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable Credit Extension set forth in
Article IV are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof (subject to the
provisions of the last paragraph of Section 4.02 hereof), the Administrative Agent shall
promptly return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without
interest.

(d) Obligations of Lenders Several. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make
Committed Loans, to fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans and to make
payments pursuant to Section 10.04(c) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender
to make any Committed Loan, to fund any such participation or to make any payment under Section
10.04(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding
obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other
Lender to so make its Committed Loan, to purchase its participation or to make its payment under
Section 10.04(c).

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

2.13 Sharing of Payments by Lenders. If any Credit Party shall, by exercising any right of
setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of, interest on, or
other amounts with respect to, any of the Obligations resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment
of a proportion of the aggregate amount of such Obligations greater than its pro
rata share thereof as provided herein (including as in contravention of the priorities of
payment set forth in Section 8.03), then the Credit Party receiving such greater proportion
shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value)
participations in the Obligations of the other Credit Parties, or make such other adjustments as
shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Credit Parties
ratably and in the priorities set forth in Section 8.03, provided that:

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

(ii) the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment
made by the Loan Parties pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this
Agreement or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or
sale of a participation in any of its Committed Loans or subparticipations in L/C
Obligations or Swing Line Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower
or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section shall apply).

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

2.14 Settlement Amongst Lenders

(a) The amount of each Lender’s Applicable Percentage of outstanding Loans (including
outstanding Swing Line Loans) shall be computed weekly (or more frequently in the Administrative
Agent’s discretion) and shall be adjusted upward or downward based on all Loans (including Swing
Line Loans) and repayments of Loans (including Swingline Loans) received by the Administrative
Agent as of 3:00 p.m. on the first Business Day (such date, the “Settlement Date”)
following the end of the period specified by the Administrative Agent.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall deliver to each of the Lenders promptly after a Settlement
Date a summary statement of the amount of outstanding Committed Loans for the period and the amount
of repayments received for the period. As reflected on the summary statement, (i) the
Administrative Agent shall transfer to each Lender its Applicable Percentage of repayments, and
(ii) each Lender shall transfer to the Administrative Agent (as provided below) or the
Administrative Agent shall transfer to each Lender, such amounts as are necessary to insure that,
after giving effect to all such transfers, the amount of Committed Loans made by each Lender shall
be equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of all Committed Loans outstanding as of such
Settlement Date. If the summary statement requires transfers to be made to the Administrative
Agent by the Lenders and is received prior to 1:00 p.m. on a Business Day, such transfers shall be
made in immediately available funds no later than 3:00 p.m. that day; and, if received after 1:00
p.m., then no later than 3:00 p.m. on the next Business Day. The obligation of each Lender to
transfer such funds is irrevocable, unconditional and without recourse to or warranty by the
Administrative Agent. If and to the extent any Lender shall not have so made its transfer to the
Administrative Agent, such Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, forthwith on demand
such amount, together with interest thereon, for each day from such date until the date such amount
is paid to the Administrative Agent, equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate
determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank
compensation plus any reasonable administrative, processing, or similar fees customarily charged by
the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing.

2.15 Increase in Commitments.

(a) Request for Increase. Provided no Default then exists or would arise therefrom,
upon notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders), the Borrower may
from time to time, request an increase in the Aggregate Commitments by an amount (for all such
requests) not exceeding $150,000,000 (each such increase, a “Commitment Increase”);
provided that any such request for an increase shall be in a minimum amount of $25,000,000.
At the time of sending such notice, the Borrower (in consultation with the Administrative Agent)
shall specify the time period within which each Lender is requested to respond (which shall in no
event be less than ten Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to the Lenders).

(b) Lender Elections to Increase. Each Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent
within such time period whether or not it agrees to increase its Commitment and, if so, whether by
an amount equal to, greater than, or less than its Applicable Percentage of such requested
increase. Any Lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to
increase its Commitment.

(c) Notification by Administrative Agent; Additional Lenders. The Administrative
Agent shall notify the Borrower and each Lender of the Lenders’ responses to each request made
hereunder. To achieve the full amount of a requested Commitment Increase and subject to the
approval of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Swing Line Lender (which approvals
shall not be unreasonably withheld), to the extent that the existing Lenders decline to increase
their Commitments, or decline to increase their Commitments to the amount requested by the
Borrower, the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower, will use its reasonable
efforts to arrange for other Eligible Assignees reasonably acceptable to the Borrower to become a
Lender hereunder (each, an “Additional Commitment Lender”) and to issue commitments in an
amount equal to the amount of the increase in the Aggregate Commitments requested by the Borrower
and not accepted by the existing Lenders (and the Borrower may also invite additional Eligible
Assignees to become Lenders), provided, however, that without the consent of the Administrative
Agent, at no time shall the Commitment of any Additional Commitment Lender be less than $5,000,000.

(d) Effective Date and Allocations. If the Aggregate Commitments are increased in
accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower, shall
determine the effective date (the “Increase Effective Date”) and the final allocation of
such increase. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the
final allocation of such increase and the Increase Effective Date and on the Effective Date (i) the
Aggregate Commitments under, and for all purposes of, this Agreement shall be increased by the
aggregate amount of such Commitment Increases, and (ii) Schedule 2.01 shall be deemed
modified, without further action, to reflect the revised Commitments and Applicable Percentages of
the Lenders.

(e) Conditions to Effectiveness of Increase. As a condition precedent to such
increase, (i) the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of each Loan
Party dated as of the Increase Effective Date (in sufficient copies for each Lender) signed by a
Responsible Officer of such Loan Party (A) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by such
Loan Party approving or consenting to such increase, and (B) in the case of the Borrower,
certifying that, before and after giving effect to such increase, (1) the representations and
warranties contained in Article V and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all
material respects (unless such representations and warranties are qualified by materiality, in
which case they shall be true and correct in all respects) on and as of the Increase Effective
Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an
earlier date, in which case they are true and correct in all material respects (unless such
representations and warranties are qualified by materiality, in which case they shall be true and
correct in all respects) as of such earlier date, and except that for purposes of this Section

ARTICLE III.

TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

3.01 Taxes.

(a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation
of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and
without reduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, provided that if
the Borrower shall be required by applicable Law to deduct any Indemnified Taxes (including any
Other Taxes) from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that
after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable
under this Section) the Agents, Lender or L/C Issuer, as the case may be, receives an amount equal
to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make
such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant
Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law.

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

(c) Indemnification by the Loan Parties. The Loan Parties shall indemnify the Agents,
each Lender and the L/C Issuer, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on
or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) paid by any Agent, such Lender or the L/C
Issuer, as the case may be, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom
or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or
legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount
of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender or the L/C Issuer (with a copy
to the Administrative Agent), or by any Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the L/C
Issuer, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified
Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the
Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental
Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of
such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Status of Lenders. Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or
reduction of withholding tax under the Law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is resident
for tax purposes, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments
hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by
the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation
prescribed by applicable Law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a
reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if requested by the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Law or
reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or
information reporting requirements.

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

(i) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN claiming eligibility
for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party,

(ii) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI,

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

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

If the Lender is not a Foreign Lender, such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender hereunder (and
from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, but only
if such Lender is legally entitled to do so) a properly completed and executed copy of any other
form or forms, including IRS Form W-9, required under the Code or other applicable U.S. Law as a
condition to exemption from, or reduction of, United States withholding or backup withholding tax.

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

3.02 Illegality. If any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any
Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending
Office to make, maintain or fund LIBO Rate Loans, or to determine or charge interest rates based
upon the LIBO Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the
authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the London
interbank market, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative
Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make or continue LIBO Rate Loans or to convert Base Rate
Loans to LIBO Rate Loans shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and
the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon
receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all LIBO Rate Loans of such Lender to Base
Rate Loans, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully
continue to maintain such LIBO Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not
lawfully continue to maintain such LIBO Rate Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the
Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.

3.03 Inability to Determine Rates. If the Required Lenders determine that for any reason in
connection with any request for a LIBO Rate Loan or a conversion to or continuation thereof that
(a) Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank market for the
applicable amount and Interest Period of such LIBO Rate Loan, (b) adequate and reasonable means do
not exist for determining the LIBO Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a
proposed LIBO Rate Loan , or (c) the LIBO Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a
proposed LIBO Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding
such Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender.
Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain LIBO Rate Loans shall be suspended
until the Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice.
Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of,
conversion to or continuation of LIBO Rate Loans or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted
such request into a request for a Committed Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified
therein.

3.04 Increased Costs; Reserves on LIBO Rate Loans.

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

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

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

(iii) impose on any Lender or the L/C Issuer or the London interbank market any other
condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or LIBO Loans made by such Lender or any
Letter of Credit or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or
maintaining any LIBO Rate Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to
increase the cost to such Lender or the L/C Issuer of participating in, issuing or maintaining any
Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of
Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or the L/C Issuer
hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender or
the L/C Issuer, the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, such
additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be,
for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

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

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

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

(e) Reserves on LIBO Rate Loans. The Borrower shall pay to each Lender, as long as
such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting
of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits (currently known as “Eurocurrency liabilities”),
additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each LIBO Rate Loan equal to the actual costs
of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith,
which determination shall be conclusive), which shall be due and payable on each date on which
interest is payable on such Loan, provided the Borrower shall have received at least 10
days’ prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of such additional interest from such
Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice 10 days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such
additional interest shall be due and payable 10 days from receipt of such notice.

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

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

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

(c) any assignment of a LIBO Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest
Period therefor as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 10.13;

including any loss of anticipated profits and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or
reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the
deposits from which such funds were obtained. The Borrower shall also pay any customary
administrative fees charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing.

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

3.06 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

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

(b) Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section
3.04, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any
Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, the Borrower
may replace such Lender in accordance with Section 10.13.

3.07 Survival. All of the Borrower’ obligations under this Article III shall survive
termination of the Aggregate Commitments and repayment of all other Obligations hereunder.

4.02 Conditions to all Credit Extensions. The obligation of each Lender to honor any Request
for Credit Extension (other than a Committed Loan Notice requesting only a conversion of Committed

Section 2.02 hereof) is subject to the following conditions precedent:

(a) The representations and warranties of each Loan Party contained in Article
V or any other Loan Document, or which are contained in any document furnished at any
time under or in connection herewith or therewith, shall be true and correct in all material
respects (unless such representations and warranties are qualified by materiality, in which
case they shall be true and correct in all respects) on and as of the date of such Credit
Extension, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer
to an earlier date, in which case they shall be true and correct as of such earlier date,
and except that for purposes of this Section 4.02, the representations and

refer to the most recent statements furnished pursuant to clauses (a)and (b), respectively,
of Section 6.01.

(c) The Administrative Agent and, if applicable, the L/C Issuer or the Swing Line

requirements hereof.

Each Request for Credit Extension (other than a Committed Loan Notice requesting only a conversion
of Committed Loans to the other Type or a continuation of LIBO Rate Loans in accordance with the
provisions of Section 2.02 hereof) submitted by the Borrower shall be deemed to be a representation
and warranty by the Borrower that the conditions specified in Sections 4.02(a) and
(b) have been satisfied on and as of the date of the applicable Credit Extension. The

ERISA with respect to a Multiemployer Plan; and (v) neither the Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate
has engaged in a transaction that could be subject to Sections 4069 or 4212(c) of ERISA.

Party (or a Subsidiary of a Loan Party) in the amounts specified on Part (a) of Schedule

for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any margin stock, for the purpose of reducing or retiring
any Indebtedness that was originally incurred to purchase or carry any margin stock or for any
other purpose that might cause any of the Credit Extensions to be considered a “purpose credit”
within the meaning of Regulations T, U, or X issued by the FRB.

statement, certificate or other information furnished (whether in writing or orally) by or on
behalf of any Loan Party to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with the
transactions contemplated hereby and the negotiation of this Agreement or delivered hereunder or
under any other Loan Document (in each case, as modified or supplemented by other information so

possess the right to use, all of the Intellectual Property, licenses, permits and other
authorizations that are reasonably necessary for the operation of their respective businesses,
without conflict with the rights of any other Person, except to the extent that such conflicts
could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. To the best knowledge of
the Borrower, no slogan or other advertising device, product, process, method, substance, part or
other material now employed, or now contemplated to be employed, by any Loan Party or any
Subsidiary infringes upon any rights held by any other Person, except to the extent that such

federal, state, local or foreign Law dealing with such matters except to the extent that any such
violation could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Loan Party or any
of its Subsidiaries has incurred any liability or obligation under the Worker Adjustment and
Retraining Act or similar state Law. All payments due from any Loan Party and its Subsidiaries, or
for which any claim may be made against any Loan Party, on account of wages and employee health and
welfare insurance and other benefits, have been paid or properly accrued in accordance with GAAP as
a liability on the books of such Loan Party. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.18 no Loan

to be filed with any Governmental Authority or arbitrator based on, arising out of, in connection
with, or otherwise relating to the employment or termination of employment of any employee of any
Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries. The consummation of the transactions contemplated by the
Loan Documents will not give rise to any right of termination or right of renegotiation on the part
of any union under any collective bargaining agreement to which any Loan Party or any of its
Subsidiaries is bound.

5.19 Security Documents.

The Security Documents create in favor of the Collateral Agent a legal, valid and enforceable

deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, the L/C Issuer and the Lenders to
treat the Borrower Materials as not containing any material non-public information (although it may
be sensitive and proprietary) with respect to the Loan Parties or their securities for purposes of
United States Federal and state securities laws (provided, however, that to the
extent the Borrower Materials constitute Information, they shall be treated as set forth in
Section 10.07); (y) all Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made
available through a portion of the Platform designated “Public Investor”; and (z) the
Administrative Agent and the Arranger shall be entitled to treat the Borrower Materials that are
not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not designated
“Public Investor.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall be under no obligation to mark
any Borrower Materials “PUBLIC.”

such Loan Party has set aside on its books adequate reserves with respect thereto in accordance

which endorsements or amendments shall provide that the insurer shall pay all proceeds
otherwise payable to the Loan Parties under the policies directly to the Collateral Agent,
(ii) a provision to the effect that none of the Loan Parties, Credit Parties or any other
Person shall be a co-insurer and (iii) such other provisions as the Collateral Agent may

the effect that none of the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or
any other party shall be a co-insurer and (iii) such other provisions as the Collateral

(d) Cause each such policy referred to in this Section 6.07 to also provide that it
shall not be canceled, modified or not renewed (i) by reason of nonpayment of premium except
upon not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice thereof by the insurer to the
Collateral Agent (giving the Collateral Agent the right to cure defaults in the payment of
premiums) or (ii) for any other reason except upon not less than thirty (30) days’ prior
written notice thereof by the insurer to the Collateral Agent.

(e) Deliver to the Collateral Agent, prior to the cancellation, modification or

satisfactory to the Collateral Agent of payment of the premium therefor.

(f) In connection with the conduct of commercial finance examinations as set forth in

Collateral Agent to conduct any such inspection.

None of the Credit Parties, or their agents or employees shall be liable for any loss or damage
insured by the insurance policies required to be maintained under this Section 6.07. Each Loan
Party shall look solely to its insurance companies or any other parties other than the Credit
Parties for the recovery of such loss or damage and such insurance companies shall have no rights
of subrogation against any Credit Party or its agents or employees. If, however, the insurance
policies do not provide waiver of subrogation rights against such parties, as required above, then
the Loan Parties hereby agree, to the extent permitted by law, to waive their right of recovery, if
any, against the Credit Parties and their agents and employees. The designation of any form, type
or amount of insurance coverage by the any Credit Party under this Section 6.07 shall in no event
be deemed a representation, warranty or advice by such Credit Party that such insurance is adequate
for the purposes of the business of the Loan Parties or the protection of their properties.

and all orders, writs, injunctions and decrees applicable to it or to its business or property,

to which adequate reserves have been set aside and maintained by the Loan Parties in accordance

be reasonably desired, upon reasonable advance notice to the Borrower; provided,
however, that Borrower shall only be responsible to reimburse the Administrative
Agent’s costs and expenses for one such visitation and inspection per Fiscal Year except to

in clause (a)), and (b) if any Equity Interests or Indebtedness of such Person are owned by or on
behalf of any Loan Party, to pledge such Equity Interests and promissory notes evidencing such
Indebtedness (except that, if such Subsidiary is a CFC, the Equity Interests of such Subsidiary to
be pledged may be limited to 65% of the outstanding voting Equity Interests and 100% of the
non-voting Equity Interests of such Subsidiary and such time period may be extended based on local
law or practice), in each case in form, content and scope reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent. In no event shall compliance with this Section 6.12 waive or be deemed a
waiver or Consent to any transaction giving rise to the need to comply with this Section 6.12 if
such transaction was not otherwise expressly permitted by this Agreement or constitute or be deemed
to constitute, with respect to any Subsidiary, an approval of such Person as the Borrower or permit

such non-compliance which would not reasonably be expected to result, individually or in the
aggregate, in a Material Adverse Effect, provided, however, that neither a Loan
Party nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to undertake any such cleanup, removal,
remedial or other action to the extent that its obligation to do so is being contested in good
faith and by proper proceedings and adequate reserves have been set aside and are being maintained
by the Loan Parties with respect to such circumstances in accordance with GAAP.

6.17 Further Assurances.

(a) Execute any and all further documents, financing statements (to the extent applicable),

which any Agent may reasonably request, to effectuate the transactions contemplated by the Loan
Documents or to grant, preserve, protect or perfect the Liens created or intended to be created by
the Security Documents or the validity or priority of any such Lien, all at the expense of the Loan
Parties. The Loan Parties also agree to provide to the Agents, from time to time upon request,
evidence satisfactory to the Agents as to the perfection and priority of the Liens created or
intended to be created by the Security Documents.

assets constituting Collateral under the Security Agreement that become subject to the Lien of the
Security Agreement upon acquisition thereof), notify the Agents thereof, and the Loan Parties will
cause such assets to be subjected to a Lien securing the Obligations and will take such actions as
shall be necessary or shall be requested by any Agent to grant and perfect such Liens, including
actions described in paragraph (a) of this Section 6.17, all at the expense of the Loan
Parties. In no event shall compliance with this Section 6.17(b) waive or be deemed a waiver

to constitute Consent to the inclusion of any acquired assets in the computation of the Borrowing
Base.

agreement (including, without limitation, a Customs Broker Agreement) to the Collateral Agent
covering such matters and in such form as the Collateral Agent may reasonably require.

hereunder, make all payments and otherwise perform all obligations in respect of all Leases of real

leases to be forfeited or cancelled by the applicable Loan Party or Subsidiary, notify the
Administrative Agent of any default by the applicable Loan Party or Subsidiary with respect to such
Leases and cooperate with the Administrative Agent in all respects to cure any such default by the
applicable Loan Party or Subsidiary, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to do so, except, in any
case, where the failure to do any of the foregoing, either individually or in the aggregate, could
not be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

6.19 Material Contracts. Perform and observe all the payment terms and other material terms
and provisions of each Material Contract to be performed or observed by it, maintain each such
Material Contract in full force and effect, enforce each such Material Contract in accordance with
its terms, take all such action to such end as may be from time to time reasonably requested by the

party to each such Material Contract such demands and requests for information and reports or for
action as any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries is entitled to make under such Material
Contract, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to do so, except, in any case, where the failure to do
any of the foregoing, either individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect.

Indebtedness” under, and defined in, the Senior Subordinated Convertible Debt, and all supplemental

(a) Each of the Lenders and the L/C Issuer hereby irrevocably appoints the
Administrative Agent to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under
the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its
behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms
hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental
thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative
Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer, and no Loan Party or any Subsidiary thereof shall
have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions.

(b) Each of the Lenders (in its capacities as a Lender), Swing Line Lender and the L/C
Issuer hereby irrevocably appoints the Collateral Agent as Collateral Agent and authorizes
the Collateral Agent to act as the agent of such Lender and the L/C Issuer for purposes of
acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Loan
Parties to secure any of the Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are
reasonably incidental thereto. In this connection, the Collateral Agent, as “collateral
agent” and any co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Collateral Agent
pursuant to Section 9.05 for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the
Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Collateral Documents, or for
exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the Collateral Agent),
shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article IX and
Article X (including Section 10.04(c)), as though such co-agents, sub-agents
and attorneys-in-fact were the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents, as if set forth
in full herein with respect thereto.

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

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

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

(b) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any
discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby
or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as
applicable, is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such
other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in
the other Loan Documents), provided that no Agent shall be required to take any
action that, in its respective opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose such Agent
to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Law; and

(c) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein (including, without limitation, in
Article VI hereof) and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not
be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Loan Parties or any
of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the
Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

No Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the Consent or at the
request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be
necessary, or as such Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances
as provided in Sections 10.01 and 8.02) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross
negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of
competent jurisdiction. The Agents shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Default unless and
until notice describing such Default is given to such Agent by the Loan Parties, a Lender or the
L/C Issuer.

The Agents shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any
statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other
Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder
or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of
the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the
occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this
Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or the creation,
perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be created by the Security Documents, (v) the value
or the sufficiency of any Collateral, or (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in
Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required
to be delivered to the Agents.

9.04 Reliance by Agents.

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

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

9.06 Resignation of Agents. Either Agent may at any time give written notice of its
resignation to the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of
resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to
appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of
any such bank with an office in the United States, provided that, unless an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, the Borrower shall have the right to approve any such successor which
is not already a Lender hereunder. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the
Required 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 L/C
Issuer, appoint a successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, meeting the
qualifications set forth above; provided that if the Administrative Agent or the Collateral
Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such
appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such
notice and (1) the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and
under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any Collateral held by the Collateral
Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the L/C Issuer under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring
Collateral Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor
Collateral Agent is appointed) and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to
be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and
the L/C Issuer directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative
Agent as provided for above in this Section. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as
Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, hereunder, such successor shall succeed to
and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or
retired) Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations
hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above
in this Section). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be
the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such
successor. After the retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents,
the provisions of this Article and Section 10.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit
of such retiring Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any
actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Agent was acting as
Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent hereunder.

9.07 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender and the L/C Issuer
acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agents or any other Lender or
any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed
appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender
and the L/C Issuer also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the
Agents or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and
information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in
taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any
related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. Except as provided in Section
9.12, the Agents shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Credit Party with any
other credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition or business of any
Loan Party that may come into the possession of the Agents.

9.08 No Other Duties, Etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the
Bookrunners, Arrangers, Syndication Agent or Documentation Agent listed on the cover page hereof
shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan
Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, a
Lender or the L/C Issuer hereunder.

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

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing
and unpaid in respect of the Loans, L/C Obligations and all other Obligations that are owing
and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to
have the claims of the Lenders, the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent and the other
Credit Parties (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements
and advances of the Lenders, the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent, such Credit Parties
and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the L/C
Issuer the Administrative Agent and such Credit Parties under Sections 2.03(i) and
2.03(j) as applicable, 2.09 and 10.04) allowed in such judicial
proceeding; and

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

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official
in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and the L/C Issuer to make such
payments to the Administrative Agent and, if the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making
of such payments directly to the Lenders and the L/C Issuer, to pay to the Administrative Agent any
amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the
Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent
under Sections 2.09 and 10.04.

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

9.10 Collateral and Guaranty Matters. The Credit Parties irrevocably authorize the Agents, at
their option and in their discretion,

(a) to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent
under any Loan Document (i) upon termination of the Aggregate Commitments and payment in
full of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations for which no
claim has been asserted) and the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit, (ii)
that is sold or to be sold as part of or in connection with any sale permitted hereunder or
under any other Loan Document, or (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by
the Required Lenders (or such other Lenders required pursuant to Section 10.01) in
accordance with Section 10.01;

(b) to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent
under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by
clause (h) of the definition of Permitted Encumbrances; and

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

Upon request by any Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing such Agent’s
authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to
release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty pursuant to this Section
9.10. In each case as specified in this Section 9.10, the Agents will, at the Loan
Parties’ expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such documents as such Loan
Party may reasonably request to evidence the release of such item of Collateral from the assignment
and security interest granted under the Security Documents or to subordinate its interest in such
item, or to release such Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty, in each case in
accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Section 9.10.

9.11 Notice of Transfer.

The Agents may deem and treat a Lender party to this Agreement as the owner of such Lender’s
portion of the Obligations for all purposes, unless and until, and except to the extent, an
Assignment and Acceptance shall have become effective as set forth in Section 10.06.

9.12 Reports and Financial Statements.

By signing this Agreement, each Lender:

(a) agrees to furnish the Administrative Agent after the occurrence and during the
continuance of a Cash Dominion Event (and thereafter at such frequency as the Administrative
Agent may reasonably request) with a summary of all Other Liabilities due or to become due
to such Lender. In connection with any distributions to be made hereunder, the
Administrative Agent shall be entitled to assume that no amounts are due to any Lender on
account of Other Liabilities unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice
thereof from such Lender;

(b) is deemed to have requested that the Administrative Agent furnish such Lender,
promptly after they become available, copies of all financial statements and Borrowing Base
Certificates required to be delivered by the Borrower hereunder and all commercial finance
examinations and appraisals of the Collateral received by the Agents (collectively, the
“Reports”);

(c) expressly agrees and acknowledges that the Administrative Agent makes no
representation or warranty as to the accuracy of the Reports, and shall not be liable for
any information contained in any Report;

(d) expressly agrees and acknowledges that the Reports are not comprehensive audits or
examinations, that the Agents or any other party performing any audit or examination will
inspect only specific information regarding the Loan Parties and will rely significantly
upon the Loan Parties’ books and records, as well as on representations of the Loan Parties’
personnel;

(e) agrees to keep all Reports confidential in accordance with the provisions of
Section 10.07 hereof; and

(f) without limiting the generality of any other indemnification provision contained in
this Agreement, agrees: (i) to hold the Agents and any such other Lender preparing a Report
harmless from any action such Lender may take or conclusion such Lender may reach or draw
from any Report in connection with any Credit Extensions that such Lender has made or may
make to the Borrower, or such Lender’s participation in, or such Lender’s purchase of, a
Loan or Loans; and (ii) to pay and protect, and indemnify, defend, and hold the Agents and
any such other Lender preparing a Report harmless from and against, the claims, actions,
proceedings, damages, costs, expenses, and other amounts (including attorney costs) incurred
by the Agents and any such other Lender preparing a Report as the direct or indirect result
of any third parties who might obtain all or part of any Report through such Lender.

9.13 Agency for Perfection.

Each Lender hereby appoints each other Lender as agent for the purpose of perfecting Liens for
the benefit of the Agents and the Lenders, in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC
or any other applicable Law of the United States can be perfected only by possession. Should any
Lender (other than the Agents) obtain possession of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify
the Agents thereof, and, promptly upon the Collateral Agent’s request therefor shall deliver such
Collateral to the Collateral Agent or otherwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with the
Collateral Agent’s instructions.

9.14 Indemnification of Agent.

The Lenders agree to indemnify the Agents in accordance with the provisions of
Section 10.04(c) hereof.

9.15 Relation among Lenders.

The Lenders are not partners or co-venturers, and no Lender shall be liable for the acts or
omissions of, or (except as otherwise set forth herein in case of the Agents) authorized to act
for, any other Lender.

9.16 Defaulting Lenders.

Notwithstanding anything contained in Section 2.07, Section 8.03 or any other provision
hereof, any Defaulting Lender shall be deemed to have assigned any and all payments due to it from
the Loan Parties, whether on account of outstanding Loans, interest, fees or otherwise, to the
remaining non-defaulting Lenders for application to, and reduction of, their proportionate shares
of all outstanding Obligations until, as a result of application of such assigned payments the
Lenders’ respective Applicable Percentages of all outstanding Obligations shall have returned to
those in effect immediately prior to such delinquency and without giving effect to the nonpayment
causing such delinquency. The Defaulting Lender’s rights to payments as set forth above shall be
restored only upon the payment by the Defaulting Lender of its Applicable Percentage of any
Obligations, any participation obligation, or expenses as to which it is delinquent, together with
interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date when originally due until the date upon which
any such amounts are actually paid.

Lender and that has been approved by the Required Lenders, the Borrower may replace such
Non-Consenting Lender in accordance with Section 10.13; provided that such
amendment, waiver, consent or release is effected as a result of the assignment contemplated by
such Section (together with all other such assignments required by the Borrower to be made pursuant
to this paragraph).

applicable, has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices
under such Article by electronic communication; provided that all loan requests sent

AGENT PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE BORROWER
MATERIALS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR
OMISSIONS FROM THE BORROWER MATERIALS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR
STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE,
NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS
MADE BY ANY AGENT PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM. In no
event shall the Agents or any of their Related Parties (collectively, the “Agent
Parties”) have any liability to any Loan Party, any Lender, the L/C Issuer or any other
Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether in tort,
contract or otherwise) arising out of the Loan Parties’ or the Administrative Agent’s
transmission of Borrower Materials through the Internet, except to the extent that such
losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent Party; provided, however,
that in no event shall any Agent Party have any liability to any Loan Party, any Lender, the
L/C Issuer or any other Person for indirect, special, incidental, consequential or punitive
damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages).

Issuer and the Swing Line Lender may change its address, telecopier or telephone number for

to time to ensure that the Administrative Agent has on record (i) an effective address,
contact name, telephone number, telecopier number and electronic mail address to which
notices and other communications may be sent and (ii) accurate wire instructions for such
Lender.

(e) Reliance by Agents, L/C Issuer and Lenders. The Agents, the L/C Issuer and
the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices (including telephonic
Committed Loan Notices and Swing Line Loan Notices) reasonably believed in good faith to
have been given by or on behalf of the Loan Parties even if (i) such notices were not made
in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other
form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient,
varied from any confirmation thereof. The Loan Parties shall indemnify the Agents, the L/C
Issuer, each Lender and the Related Parties of each of them from all losses, costs, expenses
and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given
by or on behalf of the Loan Parties. All telephonic notices to and other telephonic
communications with the Agents may be recorded by the Agents, and each of the parties hereto
hereby consents to such recording.

10.03 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure by any Credit Party to exercise, and no
delay by any such Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall
operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power
or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document preclude any other or further exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies,
powers and privileges provided herein and in the other Loan Documents are cumulative and not
exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law. 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, regardless of whether any Credit Party may have had notice or
knowledge of such Default at the time.

10.04 Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.

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

hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (3) the enforcement or protection of their rights in
connection with this Agreement or the Loan Documents or efforts to preserve, protect, collect, or
enforce the Collateral, or (4) any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of any

out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of

expenses incurred by the Credit Parties who are not the Agents, the Arranger, the L/C Issuer or any
Affiliate of any of them, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default,
provided that such Credit Parties shall be entitled to reimbursement for no more than one counsel
representing all such Credit Parties (absent a conflict of interest in which case the Credit
Parties may engage and be reimbursed for additional counsel) (the foregoing, collectively being
referred to as “Credit Party Expenses”). “Reasonable out-of-pocket expenses” shall in no event
include air travel other than expense reimbursements for commercial airlines.

(b) Indemnification by the Loan Parties. The Loan Parties shall defend and indemnify
the Agents (and any sub-agent thereof), each other Credit Party, and each Related Party of any of

expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee),
incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by the Borrower
or any other Loan Party arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or
delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated
hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder
or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or, in the
case of the Agents (and any sub-agents thereof) and their Related Parties only, the administration
of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use or
proposed use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the L/C Issuer 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 actual or alleged presence
or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by any Loan Party or
any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to any Loan Party or any
of its Subsidiaries, (iv) any claims of, or amounts paid by any Credit Party to, a Blocked Account
Bank or other Person which has entered into a control agreement with any Credit Party hereunder, or
(v) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the
foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or
by the Borrower or any other Loan Party or any of the Loan Parties’ directors, shareholders or
creditors, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto, in all cases, whether or
not caused by or arising, in whole or in part, out of the comparative, contributory or sole
negligence of the Indemnitee; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee,
be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (x)
are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have
resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) result from a
claim brought by the Borrower or any other Loan Party against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith
of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if the Borrower or
such Loan Party has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.

(c) Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that (i) the Loan Parties for any reason
fail to indefeasibly pay any amount required under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section to be paid
by it, or (ii) any liabilities, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever are be imposed on, incurred by, or
asserted against, any Agent, the L/C Issuer or a Related Party in any way relating to or arising
out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any action taken or omitted to be taken by any
Agent, the L/C Issuer or a Related Party in connection therewith, then, in each such case, each
Lender severally agrees to pay to the Agents (or any such sub-agent), the L/C Issuer or such
Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time
that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount,
provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or
related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Agents (or any such
sub-agent) or the L/C Issuer in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the
foregoing acting for the Agents (or any such sub-agent) or L/C Issuer in connection with such
capacity, and provided further that the obligation of the Lenders to so indemnify shall not
be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have
resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent, L/C Issuer or Related
Party.

(d) . The obligations of the Lenders under this subsection (c) are subject to the provisions
of Section 2.12(d).

(e) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by
applicable Law, no party hereto shall assert, and each party hereto hereby waives, any claim
against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or
punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as
a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated
hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of
the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by
unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed to such unintended
recipients by such Indemnitee through telecommunications, electronic or other information
transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby other than for direct or actual damages resulting from
the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined by a final and
nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

(f) Payments. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than ten
Business Days after demand therefor.

(g) Survival. The agreements in this Section shall survive the resignation of any
Agent, the Swing Line Lender and the L/C Issuer, the assignment of any Commitment or Loan by any
Lender, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the
repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations.

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

10.06 Successors and Assigns.

(a) Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and
assigns permitted hereby, except that no Loan Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of its
rights or obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the prior written Consent
of the Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of
its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee in accordance with the
provisions of Section 10.06(b), (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of
subsection Section 10.06(d), or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject
to the restrictions of Section 10.06(f) (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any
party hereto shall be null and void). 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 subsection (d) of this Section
and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Credit
Parties) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible
Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a
portion of its Commitment(s) and the Loans (including for purposes of this Section 10.06(b),
participations in L/C Obligations and in Swing Line Loans) at the time owing to it);
provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i) Minimum Amounts

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

(B) in any case not described in subsection (b)(i)(A) of this Section, the
aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding
thereunder) or, if the Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance
of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as of the
date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the
Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as
of the Trade Date, shall not be less than $10,000,000 unless each of the Administrative
Agent and, so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise
consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided,
however, that concurrent assignments to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent
assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single Eligible Assignee (or to an
Eligible Assignee and members of its Assignee Group) will be treated as a single assignment
for purposes of determining whether such minimum amount has been met;

(ii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an
assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations
under this Agreement with respect to the Loans or the Commitment assigned, except that this
clause (ii) shall not apply to the Swing Line Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of
Swing Line Loans;

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

(A) the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld
or delayed) shall be required unless (1) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing
at the time of such assignment or (2) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a
Lender or an Approved Fund; and

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

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

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

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

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c)
of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the
Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest
assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this
Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by
such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the
case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the 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 and be subject to the obligations of Sections 3.01,
3.04, 3.05, and 10.04 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring
prior to the effective date of such assignment. Upon request, the Borrower (at their expense)
shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of
rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection 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 10.06(d).

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

(d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to,
the Loan Parties or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a
natural person or the Loan Parties or any of the Loan Parties’ Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a
“Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this
Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans (including such Lender’s
participations in L/C Obligations and/or Swing Line Loans) owing to it); provided that (i)
such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall
remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and
(iii) the Loan Parties, the Agents, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer shall continue to deal solely
and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this
Agreement. Any Participant shall agree in writing to comply with all confidentiality obligations
set forth in Section 10.07 as if such Participant was a Lender hereunder.

Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall
provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any
amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such
agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the
Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to
Section 10.01 that affects such Participant. Subject to subsection (e) of this Section,
the Loan Parties agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of and be subject to
the obligations of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 to the same extent as if it
were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 10.06(b). To
the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section
10.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to
Section 2.13 as though it were a Lender.

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

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

(g) Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,” “signed,”
“signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include
electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the
same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a
paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any
applicable Law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act,
the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on
the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

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

10.07 Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality. Each of the Credit Parties agrees to
maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be
disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors,
officers, employees, agents, advisors, funding sources, and representatives (it being understood
that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of
such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested
by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory
authority), (c) to the extent required by applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or
similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any
remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this
Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f)
subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to
(i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its
rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its
advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to any Loan Party and its obligations, (g)
with the consent of the Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly
available other than as a result of a breach of this Section by any Lender or (y) becomes available
to any Credit Party or any of their respective Affiliates on a non-confidential basis from a source
other than the Loan Parties.

For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the
Loan Parties or any Subsidiary thereof relating to the Loan Parties or any Subsidiary thereof or
their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to any Credit Party
on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Loan Parties or any Subsidiary thereof,
provided that, in the case of information received from any Loan Party or any Subsidiary
after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as
confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in
this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has
exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such
Person would accord to its own confidential information.

Each of the Credit Parties acknowledges that (a) the Information may include material
non-public information concerning the Loan Parties or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, (b) it has
developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and (c) it
will handle such material non-public information in accordance with applicable Law, including
Federal and state securities Laws.

10.08 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or if any
Lender shall have been served with a trustee process or similar attachment relating to property of
a Loan Party, each Lender, the L/C Issuer and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby
authorized at any time and from time to time, after obtaining the prior written consent of the
Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, to
set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final,
in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time
owing by such Lender, the L/C Issuer or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of
the Borrower or any other Loan Party against any and all of the Obligations now or hereafter
existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or the L/C Issuer,
irrespective of whether or not such Lender or the L/C Issuer shall have made any demand under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of the Borrower or such Loan
Party may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender or the L/C
Issuer different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness.
The rights of each Lender, the L/C Issuer and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in
addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, the L/C
Issuer or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender and the L/C Issuer agrees to notify
the Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application,
provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff
and application.

10.09 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any
Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the
maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If
the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum
Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such
unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for,
charged, or received by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person
may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal
as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the
effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the
total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

10.10 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in
counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall
constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract.
This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire contract among the parties
relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and
understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in
Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the
Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof
that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an
executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy or electronic transmission
shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

10.11 Survival. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan
Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or
therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and
warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Credit Parties, regardless of any investigation
made by any Credit Party or on their behalf and notwithstanding that any Credit Party may have had
notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Credit Extension, and shall continue in full
force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or
unsatisfied or any Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding. Further, the provisions of Sections
3.01, 3.04, 3.05 and 10.04 and Article IX shall survive and remain in full force and effect
regardless of the repayment of the Obligations, the expiration or termination of the Letters of
Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof. In
connection with the termination of this Agreement and the release and termination of the security
interests in the Collateral, the Agents may require such indemnities and collateral security as
they shall reasonably deem necessary or appropriate to protect the Credit Parties against (x) loss
on account of credits previously applied to the Obligations that may subsequently be reversed or
revoked, and (y) any obligations that may thereafter arise with respect to the Other Liabilities.

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

10.13 Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04,
or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental
Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, or if any Lender is a
Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and
effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and
delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and
consents required by, Section 10.06), all of its interests, rights and obligations under
this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations
(which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:

(a) the Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee
specified in Section 10.06(b);

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

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

(d) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws.

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a
result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require
such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

10.14 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Etc.

(a) GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE
WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, (EXCEPT FOR THE CONFLICT OF LAWS RULES THEREOF, BUT
INCLUDING GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402).

AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AGAINST ANY LOAN PARTY OR ITS PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY
JURISDICTION.

(c) WAIVER OF VENUE. EACH LOAN PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE
FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE
LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY
OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT IN ANY COURT REFERRED TO IN PARAGRAPH (B) OF THIS SECTION. EACH OF THE LOAN
PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE

MAY ELECT IN ITS SOLE DISCRETION AND CONSENTS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS WITH

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

10.16 No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all aspects of each
transaction contemplated hereby, the Loan Parties each acknowledge and agree that: (i) the credit
facility provided for hereunder and any related arranging or other services in connection therewith
(including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other
Loan Document) are an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Loan Parties, on the one
hand, and the Credit Parties, on the other hand, and each of the Loan Parties is capable of
evaluating and understanding and understands and accepts the terms, risks and conditions of the
transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents (including any amendment, waiver
or other modification hereof or thereof); (ii) in connection with the process leading to such
transaction, the each Credit Party is and has been acting solely as a principal and is not the
financial advisor, agent or fiduciary, for the Loan Parties or any of their respective Affiliates,

with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto,
including with respect to any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan
Document (irrespective of whether any of the Credit Parties has advised or is currently advising
any Loan Party or any of its Affiliates on other matters) and none of the Credit Parties has any
obligation to any Loan Party or any of its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated
hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; (iv)
the Credit Parties and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions
that involve interests that differ from those of the Loan Parties and their respective Affiliates,
and none of the Credit Parties has any obligation to disclose any of such interests by virtue of
any advisory, agency or fiduciary relationship; and (v) the Credit Parties have not provided and
will not provide any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to any of the
transactions contemplated hereby (including any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or
of any other Loan Document) and each of the Loan Parties has consulted its own legal, accounting,
regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate. Each of the Loan Parties
hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that it may have
against each of the Credit Parties with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or
fiduciary duty.

10.17 USA PATRIOT Act Notice. Each Lender that is subject to the Act (as hereinafter defined)
and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Loan
Parties that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56
(signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and
record information that identifies each Loan Party, which information includes the name and address
of each Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent,
as applicable, to identify each Loan Party in accordance with the Act. Each Loan Party is in
compliance, in all material respects, with the Patriot Act. No part of the proceeds of the Loans
will be used by the Loan Parties, directly or indirectly, for any payments to any governmental
official or employee, political party, official of a political party, candidate for political
office, or anyone else acting in an official capacity, in order to obtain, retain or direct
business or obtain any improper advantage, in violation of the United States Foreign Corrupt
Practices Act of 1977, as amended.

10.18 Foreign Asset Control Regulations.

Neither of the advance of the Loans nor the use of the proceeds of any thereof will
violate the Trading With the Enemy Act (50 U.S.C. § 1 et seq., as amended) (the “Trading With
the Enemy Act”) or any of the foreign assets control regulations of the United States Treasury
Department (31 CFR, Subtitle B, Chapter V, as amended) (the “Foreign Assets Control
Regulations”) or any enabling legislation or executive order relating thereto (which for the
avoidance of doubt shall include, but shall not be limited to (a) Executive Order 13224 of
September 21, 2001 Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions With Persons Who Commit, Threaten
to Commit, or Support Terrorism (66 Fed. Reg. 49079 (2001)) (the “Executive Order”) and (b)
the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and
Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 (Public Law 107-56)). Furthermore, none of the Borrowers or their
Affiliates (a) is or will become a “blocked person” as described in the Executive Order, the
Trading With the Enemy Act or the Foreign Assets Control Regulations or (b) knowingly engages or
will engage in any dealings or transactions, or be otherwise associated, with any such “blocked
person” or in any manner violative of any such order.

10.19 Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence of the Loan Documents.

10.20 Designation as Senior Indebtedness.

All Obligations shall be “Senior Indebtedness” for purposes of and as defined in the
Senior Subordinated Convertible Debt documents, and all supplemental indentures thereto.

10.21 Press Releases.

Each Credit Party executing this Agreement agrees that neither it nor its Affiliates will in
the future issue any press releases or other public disclosure using the name of Administrative
Agent or its Affiliates or referring to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents without at least
two (2) Business Days’ prior notice to Administrative Agent and without the prior written consent
of Administrative Agent unless (and only to the extent that) such Credit Party or Affiliate is
required to do so under applicable Law and then, in any event, such Credit Party or Affiliate will
consult with Administrative Agent before issuing such press release or other public disclosure.
Each Loan Party consents to the publication by Administrative Agent or any Lender of advertising
material relating to the financing transactions contemplated by this Agreement using any Loan
Party’s name, product photographs, logo or trademark. Administrative Agent or such Lender shall
provide a draft reasonably in advance of any advertising material to the Borrower for review and
comment prior to the publication thereof. Administrative Agent reserves the right to provide to
industry trade organizations information necessary and customary for inclusion in league table
measurements.

10.22 Additional Waivers.

(a) The Obligations are the joint and several obligation of each Loan Party. To the fullest
extent permitted by applicable Law, the obligations of each Loan Party shall not be affected by
(i) the failure of any Credit Party to assert any claim or demand or to enforce or exercise any
right or remedy against any other Loan Party under the provisions of this Agreement, any other Loan
Document or otherwise, (ii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or any release
from any of the terms or provisions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or (iii) the
failure to perfect any security interest in, or the release of, any of the Collateral or other
security held by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent or any other Credit Party.

(b) The obligations of each Loan Party shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation,
impairment or termination for any reason (other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of
the Obligations after the termination of the Commitments), including any claim of waiver, release,
surrender, alteration or compromise of any of the Obligations, and shall not be subject to any
defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity,
illegality or unenforceability of any of the Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Loan Party hereunder shall not be discharged
or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of any Agent or any other Credit Party to assert
any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any
other agreement, by any waiver or modification of any provision of any thereof, any default,
failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of any of the Obligations, or by any
other act or omission that may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Loan
Party or that would otherwise operate as a discharge of any Loan Party as a matter of law or equity
(other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all the Obligations after the termination
of the Commitments).

(c) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, each Loan Party waives any defense
based on or arising out of any defense of any other Loan Party or the unenforceability of the
Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of
any other Loan Party, other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all the Obligations
and the termination of the Commitments. The Collateral Agent and the other Credit Parties may, at
their election, foreclose on any security held by one or more of them by one or more judicial or
nonjudicial sales, accept an assignment of any such security in lieu of foreclosure, compromise or
adjust any part of the Obligations, make any other accommodation with any other Loan Party, or
exercise any other right or remedy available to them against any other Loan Party, without
affecting or impairing in any way the liability of any Loan Party hereunder except to the extent
that all the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash and the Commitments have been
terminated. Each Loan Party waives any defense arising out of any such election even though such
election operates, pursuant to applicable Law, to impair or to extinguish any right of
reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of such Loan Party against any other Loan
Party, as the case may be, or any security.

(d) The Loan Parties are obligated to repay the Obligations as joint and several obligors
under this Agreement. Upon payment by any Loan Party of any Obligations, all rights of such Loan
Party against any other Loan Party arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation,
contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or otherwise shall in all respects be subordinate and junior
in right of payment to the prior indefeasible payment in full in cash of all the Obligations after
termination of the Commitments. In addition, any indebtedness of any Loan Party now or hereafter
held by any other Loan Party is hereby subordinated in right of payment to the prior indefeasible
payment in full of the Obligations and no Loan Party will demand, sue for or otherwise attempt to
collect any such indebtedness. If any amount shall erroneously be paid to any Loan Party on
account of (i) such subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or similar right or (ii)
any such indebtedness of any Loan Party, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the
Credit Parties and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent to be credited against the
payment of the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Subject to the foregoing, to the extent that a Loan Party
shall, under this Agreement as a joint and several obligor, repay any of the Obligations made to
the Borrower hereunder or other Obligations incurred directly and primarily by the Borrower (an
“Accommodation Payment”), then the Loan Party making such Accommodation Payment shall be
entitled to contribution and indemnification from, and be reimbursed by, each of the other Loan
Parties in an amount, for each of such other Loan Parties, equal to a fraction of such
Accommodation Payment, the numerator of which fraction is such other Loan Party’s Allocable Amount
and the denominator of which is the sum of the Allocable Amounts of all of the Loan Parties. As of
any date of determination, the “Allocable Amount” of a Loan Party shall be equal to the
maximum amount of liability for Accommodation Payments which could be asserted against such Loan
Party hereunder without (a) rendering such Loan Party “insolvent” within the meaning of Section 101
(31) of the Bankruptcy Code, Section 2 of the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act (“UFTA”) or
Section 2 of the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act (“UFCA”), (b) leaving such Loan Party
with unreasonably small capital or assets, within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy
Code, Section 4 of the UFTA, or Section 5 of the UFCA, or (c) leaving such Loan Party unable to pay
its debts as they become due within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or Section 4
of the UFTA, or Section 5 of the UFCA.

10.23 No Strict Construction.

The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this
Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this
Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto and no presumption or
burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any
provisions of this Agreement.
