Exhibit 10.1

PERFORMANCE FOOD GROUP COMPANY

2008 CASH INCENTIVE PLAN

1. Purpose of the Plan.

     The purpose of the Plan is to advance the interests of the Company and its shareholders by
providing incentives in the form of cash bonus awards to certain executives of the Company and its
Subsidiaries. The Plan is intended to enable the Company to attract and retain appropriate
executive talent and to motivate such officers to manage and grow the Company’s business and to
attain the performance goals articulated under the Plan. This Plan shall be administered pursuant
to the Performance Food Group Company 2003 Equity Incentive Plan; it is the intention of the
Company that all Awards hereunder to Covered Officers shall qualify for the “performance-based
exception” to the deduction limitation imposed by Section 162(m) of the Code. All provisions
hereof shall be interpreted accordingly. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have
the meaning set forth in the 2003 Equity Incentive Plan.

2. Definitions.

     The following capitalized terms used in the Plan have the respective meanings set forth in
this Section:

     (a) “Award” means a cash bonus award granted pursuant to the Plan.

     (b) “Board” means the Board of Directors of the Company.

     (d) “Committee” means the Compensation Committee of the Board, or any successor thereto or any
other committee designated by the Board to assume the obligations of the Committee hereunder.

     (e) “Company” means Performance Food Group Company, a Tennessee corporation, and its

     (j) “Subsidiary” means a subsidiary corporation, as defined in Section 424(f) of the Code (or
any successor section thereto).

3. Administration.

     The Plan shall be administered by the Committee. The Committee shall have the authority to
select the employees to be granted Awards under the Plan, to determine the size and terms of an
Award (subject to the limitations imposed on Awards in Section 5 below), to modify the terms of any
Award that has been granted, to determine the time when Awards will be made, the amount of any
payments pursuant to such Awards, and the Performance Period to which they relate, to establish
performance objectives in respect of such Performance Periods and to determine whether such
performance objectives were attained. The Committee is authorized to interpret the

 

 

Plan, to establish, amend and rescind any rules and regulations relating to the Plan, and to
make any other determinations that it deems necessary or desirable for the administration of the
Plan. The Committee may correct any defect or omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan
in the manner and to the extent the Committee deems necessary or desirable. Any decision of the
Committee in the interpretation and administration of the Plan, as described herein, shall lie
within its sole and absolute discretion and shall be final, conclusive and binding on all parties
concerned. Determinations made by the Committee under the Plan need not be uniform and may be made
selectively among Participants, whether or not such Participants are similarly situated. The
Committee shall have the right to deduct from any payment made under the Plan any federal, state,
local or foreign income or other taxes required by law to be withheld with respect to such payment.
The Committee may delegate to one or more employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries,
including, but not limited to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, the authority to take actions
on its behalf pursuant to the Plan; provided, however, only the Committee may determine
compensation awards to executive officers.

4. Eligibility and Participation.

     The Committee shall determine the executive officers and, upon the recommendation of the Chief
Executive Officer, such other persons who shall be Participants for any Performance Period.
Participants shall be selected from among the employees of the Company and any of its Subsidiaries.
The designation of Participants may be made individually or by groups or classifications of
employees, as the Committee deems appropriate.

5. Awards.

     (a) Performance Goals. Awards under the Plan shall be conditioned on the attainment
of written performance goals which may be corporate and/or individual goals. Performance goals
shall be recommended by the Chief Executive Officer and determined and approved by the Committee
for any Performance Periods. The Committee shall determine whether and to what extent each
performance goal has been met. In determining whether and to what extent a performance goal has
been met, the Committee shall consider the recommendation of the Chief Executive Officer (other
than with respect to his Award) and may consider such other matters as the Committee deems
appropriate.

     (b) Weighting of Goals. The percentage of any Award payable pursuant to the Plan
shall be based on the weights assigned to the applicable performance goal. Unless determined
otherwise by the Committee, in the case of multiple individual performance goals, each such goal
shall be given equal weight.

     (c) Target Bonus. The Committee shall determine and specify a target bonus amount to
be payable pursuant to an Award for each Participant.

     (d) Amount Payable. The amount payable pursuant to an Award shall be determined by the
Committee in its sole discretion based on the applicable target bonus amount, the prescribed
weighting of the performance goals, and the Committee’s determination of whether and to what extent
each applicable performance goal has been met. The Committee shall establish a threshold of
operating profit (excluding equity award expense; results of operations for entities acquired or
disposed of during the Performance Period; and the effect of other non-recurring gains or losses,
as determined in the sole discretion of the Committee) for the Company below which no Award will be
paid.

     (e) Payment. The amount of the Award payable as determined by the Committee
for any Performance Period shall be paid to the Participant between the first day following the
close of the Performance Period and the fifteenth day of the third month following the close the
Performance Period, or as soon as practicable thereafter, as the Committee shall determine.

     (f) Termination of Employment. If a Participant dies, retires, is assigned to a
different position or is granted a leave of absence, or if the Participant’s employment is
otherwise terminated (except with cause by the Company, as determined by the Committee in its sole
discretion) during a Performance Period, a pro rata share of the Participant’s award based on the
period of actual participation may, in the Committee’s sole discretion, be paid to the Participant
after the end of any such Performance Period if it would have become earned and payable had the
Participant’s employment status not changed.

 

 

6. Amendments or Termination.

     The Committee may amend, alter or discontinue the Plan, but no amendment, alteration or
discontinuation shall be made which would impair any of the rights or obligations under any Award
theretofore granted to a Participant under the Plan without such Participant’s consent; provided,
however, that the Committee may amend the Plan in such manner as it deems necessary to permit the
granting of Awards meeting the requirements of any applicable law, rule or regulation.

7. No Right to Employment.

     Neither the Plan nor any action taken hereunder shall be construed as giving any Participant
or other person any right to continue to be employed by or perform services for the Company or any
Subsidiary, and the right to terminate the employment of or performance of services by any
Participant at any time and for any reason is specifically reserved to the Company and its
Subsidiaries.

8. Nontransferability of Awards.

     An Award shall not be transferable or assignable by the Participant other than by will or by
the laws of descent and distribution.

9. Offset of Awards.

     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may
reduce any amounts otherwise payable to any Participant hereunder in order to satisfy any
liabilities owed to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries by the Participant.

10. Adjustments Upon Certain Events.

     In the event of any material change in the business assets, liabilities or prospects of the
Company, any division or any Subsidiary, the Committee in its sole discretion and without liability
to any person may make such adjustment, if any, as it deems to be equitable as to any affected
terms of outstanding Awards.

11. Miscellaneous Provisions.

     The Company is the sponsor and legal obligor under the Plan and shall make all payments
hereunder, other than any payments to be made by any of the Subsidiaries (in which case payment
shall be made by such Subsidiary, as appropriate). The Company shall not be required to establish
any special or separate fund or to make any other segregation of assets to ensure the payment of
any amounts under the Plan, and the Participants’ rights to the payment hereunder shall be no
greater than the rights of the Company’s (or Subsidiary’s) unsecured creditors. All expenses
involved in administering the Plan shall be borne by the Company.

12. Choice of Law.

     The Plan shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
Tennessee applicable to contracts made and to be performed in the State of Tennessee.

13. Effectiveness of the Plan.

     The Plan shall be effective as of the date of its adoption by the Committee.EX-10.1 Revolving Credit Agreement

conditions set forth herein, the Lender agrees to make Revolving Loans to the Borrower, from time
to time during the Availability Period, in an aggregate principal amount outstanding at any time
not to exceed the Revolving Commitment. During the Availability Period, the Borrower shall be
entitled to borrow, prepay and reborrow Revolving Loans in accordance with the terms and conditions
of this Agreement; provided, that the Borrower may not borrow or reborrow should there
exist a Default or Event of Default.

          (b) The Borrower’s obligation to pay the principal of, and interest on, Revolving Loans shall
be evidenced by the records of the Lender and by the Revolving Credit Note. The entries made in
such records and/or on the schedule annexed to the Revolving Credit Note shall be prima facie
evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrower therein recorded;
provided, that the failure or delay of the Lender in maintaining or making entries into any
such record or on such schedule or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation
of the Borrower to repay the Revolving Loans (both principal and unpaid accrued interest) in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

          Section 2.2. Procedure for Revolving Loans. The Borrower shall give the Lender
written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of each Revolving Loan
substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.2 (a “Notice of Borrowing”) prior to 11:00 a.m. two (2)
Business Days prior to which a Revolving Loan is being requested. Each Notice of Borrowing shall be
irrevocable and shall specify: (i) the principal amount of the Revolving Loan, (ii) the proposed
date of the Revolving Loan (which shall be a Business Day), and (iii) if the Revolving Loan is
$2,500,000 or greater, its purpose (provided in sufficient detail that is reasonably satisfactory
to the Lender). The aggregate principal amount of each Revolving Loan shall be not less than
$1,000,000 or a larger multiple of $500,000, or in such
lesser amounts equal to the

9

 

amount of the unused Revolving Commitment. Upon the satisfaction of the
applicable conditions set forth in Article III hereof, the Lender will make the proceeds of each
Revolving Loan available to the Borrower at the Payment Office on the date specified in the
applicable Notice of Borrowing by crediting an account maintained by the Borrower with the Lender
or at the Borrower’s option, by effecting a wire transfer of such amount to an account designated
by the Borrower to the Lender.

          Section 2.3. Optional Reduction and Termination and/or Extension of Revolving
Commitment.

          (a) The Revolving Commitment shall terminate on the Commitment Termination Date;
provided, that the Commitment Termination Date may be extended by the Lender for additional
364-day periods in its sole discretion upon receiving a written request from the Borrower not
earlier than 60 days and not later than 45 days prior to then existing Commitment Termination Date
for an extension. Upon the receipt of such request, the Lender shall use its best efforts to notify
the Borrower not later than 30 days prior to any Commitment Termination Date whether it will extend
the then existing Commitment Termination Date for an additional 364-day period; provided,
that the failure of the Lender to give any such notice to the Borrower shall mean that the then
existing Commitment Termination Date will not be so extended.

          (b) Upon at least two (2) Business Days’ prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly
confirmed in writing) to the Lender (which notice shall be irrevocable), the Borrower may reduce
the Revolving Commitment in part or terminate the Revolving Commitment in whole; provided,
that (i) any partial reduction pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall be in an amount of at
least $500,000 and any larger multiple of $100,000 and (ii) no such reduction shall be permitted
which would reduce the Revolving Commitment (after giving effect thereto and any concurrent
prepayments made under Section 2.4) to an amount less than the outstanding Revolving Loans.

          Section 2.4. Repayment and Prepayments of Revolving Loans.

          (a) The outstanding principal amount of all Revolving Loans shall be due and payable (together
with accrued and unpaid interest thereon) on the Commitment Termination Date.

          (b) The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any
Eurodollar Loan, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, subject to Section 2.12
hereof. Each partial prepayment shall be in an amount not less than $100,000 and integral multiples
thereof.

          (c) Subject to Sections 2.8 and 2.9, each Eurodollar Loan shall automatically
continue on the last day of an Interest Period for another one-month Interest Period unless the
Borrower elects to repay in whole or in part such Eurodollar Loan on the last day of such Interest
Period. In the case of a partial repayment, such Eurodollar Loan shall be continued for another
one-month Interest Period in the principal amount designated by the Borrower, subject to the
minimum amounts specified in Section 2.2.

          Section 2.5. Interest on Loans.

          (a) The Borrower shall pay interest on each Eurodollar Loan at LIBOR, plus 1.25% per annum. If
a Base Rate Loan shall be outstanding under the circumstances set forth in Section 2.8 or
2.9, then the Borrower shall pay interest on each Base Rate Loan at the Base Rate in effect
from time to time.

          (b) While an Event of Default exists or after acceleration, at the option of the Lender, the
Borrower shall pay interest (“Default Interest”) with respect to all Eurodollar Loans at the rate
otherwise applicable for the then-current Interest Period plus an additional 2% per annum until the
last day of such

10

 

Interest Period, and thereafter, and with respect to all Base Rate Loans and all other
Obligations hereunder (other than Loans), at the Base Rate, plus 2% per annum.

          (c) Interest on the principal amount of all Revolving Loans shall accrue from and including
the date such Revolving Loans are made to but excluding the date of any repayment thereof. Interest
on all outstanding Eurodollar Loans shall be payable on the last day of each Interest Period
applicable thereto and on the Commitment Termination Date. Interest on any Base Rate Loans shall be
payable on the last day of each calendar month and on the Commitment Termination Date. All Default
Interest shall be payable on demand.

          (d) The Lender shall determine each interest rate applicable to the Revolving Loans hereunder
and shall promptly notify the Borrower of such rate in writing (or by telephone, promptly confirmed
in writing). Any such determination shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent
manifest error.

          Section 2.6. Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Lender a commitment fee, which
shall accrue at 0.10% p. a. on the daily amount of the unused Revolving Commitment during the
Availability Period. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable in arrears on the last day of each
March, June, September and December of each year and on the Commitment Termination Date, commencing
on the first such date after the Closing Date.

          Section 2.7. Computation of Interest and Fees. All computations of interest and fees
hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days (including
the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or fees
are payable (to the extent computed on the basis of days elapsed). Each determination by the Lender
of an interest amount or fee hereunder shall be made in good faith and, except for manifest error,
shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes.

          Section 2.8. Inability to Determine Interest Rates. If prior to the commencement of
any Interest Period for any Eurodollar Loan, the Lender shall have determined (which determination
shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower) that (a) by reason of circumstances affecting
the relevant interbank market, adequate means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR, or (b) LIBOR
does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lender of making, funding or maintaining its
Eurodollar Loans, the Lender shall give written notice (or telephonic notice, promptly confirmed in
writing) to the Borrower as soon as practicable thereafter. Until the Lender notifies the Borrower
that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (x) the obligation of the Lender
to make Eurodollar Loans or to continue outstanding Revolving Loans as Eurodollar Loans shall be
suspended and (y) all such affected Eurodollar Loans shall be converted into Base Rate Loans on the
last day of the then current Interest Period unless the Borrower elects to prepay such Revolving
Loans in accordance with this Agreement.

          Section 2.9. Illegality. If any Change in Law shall make it unlawful or impossible
for the Lender to make, maintain or fund any Eurodollar Loan, the Lender shall promptly give notice
thereof to the Borrower, whereupon until the Lender notifies the Borrower that the circumstances
giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the obligation of the Lender to make Eurodollar
Loans, or to continue any outstanding Revolving Loans as Eurodollar Loans, shall be suspended. Any
new Revolving Loan shall be made as a Base Rate Loan and all then outstanding Eurodollar Loans
shall be converted to a Base Rate Loan either (x) on the last day of the then current Interest
Period if the Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Loans to such date or (y)
immediately if the Lender shall determine that it may not lawfully continue to maintain such
Eurodollar Loans to such date.

          Section 2.10. Increased Costs.

          (a) If any Change in Law shall:

11

 

     (i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar
requirement that is not otherwise included in the determination of LIBOR hereunder against
assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, the Lender (except
any such reserve requirement reflected in the calculation of LIBOR); or

     (ii) impose on the Lender or the eurodollar interbank market any other condition
affecting this Agreement or any Eurodollar Loans made by the Lender; and the result of the
foregoing is to increase the cost to the Lender of making, continuing or maintaining a
Eurodollar Loan or to reduce the amount received or receivable by the Lender hereunder
(whether of principal, interest or any other amount), then the Borrower shall promptly pay,
upon written notice from and demand by the Lender, within five Business Days after the date
of such notice and demand, additional amount or amounts sufficient to compensate the Lender
for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

          (b) If the Lender shall have determined that on or after the date of this Agreement any Change
in Law regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return
on the Lender’s capital (or on the capital of the Lender’s parent corporation) as a consequence of
its obligations hereunder to a level below that which the Lender or the Lender’s parent corporation
could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration the Lender’s policies or
the policies of the Lender’s parent corporation with respect to capital adequacy) then, from time
to time, within five (5) Business Days after receipt by the Borrower of written demand by the
Lender, the Borrower shall pay to the Lender such additional amounts as will compensate the Lender
or the Lender’s parent corporation for any such reduction suffered.

          (c) A certificate of the Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate
the Lender or its parent corporation, as the case may be, specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this
Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. The
Borrower shall pay the Lender such amount or amounts within 10 days after receipt thereof.

          (d) Failure or delay on the part of the Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section
shall not constitute a waiver of the Lender’s right to demand such compensation.

          Section 2.11. Payments Generally. The Borrower shall make each payment required to
be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees, or of amounts payable under
Section 2.10 or otherwise) prior to 12:00 noon, on the date when due, in immediately
available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date
may, in the discretion of the Lender, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding
Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the
Lender at its Payment Office. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a
Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in
the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be made payable for the period of
such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in Dollars.

          Section 2.12. Funding Indemnity. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of
a Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto (including
as a result of an Event of Default), or (b) the failure by the Borrower to borrow, prepay, or
continue any Eurodollar Loan on the date specified in any applicable notice (regardless of whether
such notice is withdrawn or revoked), then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate the
Lender, within five (5) Business Days after written demand from the Lender, for any loss, cost or
expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurodollar Loan, such loss, cost or expense
shall be deemed to include an amount determined by the Lender to be
the

12

 

excess, if any, of (A) the
amount of interest that would have accrued on the principal amount of such Eurodollar Loan if such
event had not occurred at LIBOR applicable to such Eurodollar Loan for the period from the date of
such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or in the case of a
failure to borrow or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such
Eurodollar Loan) over (B) the amount of interest that would accrue on the principal amount of such
Eurodollar Loan for the same period if LIBOR were set on the date such Eurodollar Loan was prepaid
or converted or the date on which the Borrower failed to borrow or
continue such Eurodollar Loan. A certificate as to any additional amount payable under this
Section 2.12 submitted to the Borrower by the Lender shall be conclusive, absent manifest
error.

          Section 4.4. Financial Statements. The Borrower has furnished to the Lender (i) the
audited consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2006 and
the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the fiscal
year then ended prepared by KPMG, LLP and (ii) the unaudited consolidated balance sheet of the
Borrower and its Subsidiaries as at the end of the September 30, 2007, and the related unaudited
consolidated statements of income and cash flows for the fiscal quarter and year-to-date period
then ending, certified by the chief financial officer or treasurer of the Borrower. Such financial
statements fairly present, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position
of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as of such dates and the consolidated results of
operations and cash flows for such periods in conformity with GAAP consistently applied, subject to
year end audit adjustments and the absence of footnotes in the case of the statements referred to
in clause (ii). Since December 31, 2006, there have been no changes with respect to the Borrower
and its Subsidiaries which have had or could reasonably be expected to have, singly or in the
aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

          Section 4.5. Litigation Matters. No litigation, investigation or proceeding of or
before any arbitrators or Governmental Authorities is pending against, or, to the knowledge of the
Borrower, threatened against or affecting the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (i) as to which
there is a reasonable possibility of an adverse determination that could reasonably be expected to
have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) which in any
manner draws into question the validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document.

          Section 4.6. Compliance with Laws and Agreements. The Borrower and each Subsidiary
is in compliance with (a) all applicable laws (including without limitation all Environmental Laws

(b) all indentures, agreements or other instruments binding upon it or its properties, except in
each case where non-compliance, either singly or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected
to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

          Section 4.7. Investment Company Act, Etc. Neither the Borrower nor any of its
Subsidiaries is (a) an “investment company”, as defined in, or subject to regulation under, the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or (b) a “holding company” as defined in, or subject to
regulation under, the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended.

filed by them, and have paid all taxes shown to be due and payable on such returns or on any
assessments made against it or its property and all other taxes, fees or other charges imposed on
it or any of its property by any Governmental Authority, except (i) to the extent the failure to do
so would not have a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) where the same are currently being contested in
good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which the Borrower or such Subsidiary, as the case
may be, has set aside on its books adequate reserves.

          Section 4.9. Margin Regulations. None of the proceeds of any of the Revolving Loans
will be used for “purchasing” or “carrying” any “margin stock” with the respective meanings of each

that, when taken together with all other such ERISA Events for which liability is reasonably
expected to occur, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The
present value of all accumulated benefit obligations under each Plan (based on the assumptions used
for purposes of Statement of Financial Standards No. 87) did not, as of the date of the most recent
financial statements reflecting such

15

 

amounts, exceed by more than $1,000,000 the fair market
value of the assets of all such Plan, and the present value of all accumulated benefit obligations
of all underfunded Plans (based on the assumptions used for purposes of Statement of Financial
Standards No. 87) did not, as of the date of the most recent financial statements reflecting such
amounts, exceed by more than $1,000,000 the fair market value of the assets of all such underfunded
Plans.

          Section 4.11. Disclosure. The Borrower has disclosed to the Lender all agreements,
instruments, and corporate or other restrictions to which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries

all reports that the Borrower is required to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission),
financial statements, certificates or other information furnished by or on behalf of the Borrower
to the Lender in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or
delivered hereunder or thereunder (as modified or supplemented by any other information so
furnished) contains any material misstatement of fact or omits to state any material fact necessary
to make the statements therein, taken as a whole, in light of the circumstances under which they
were made, not misleading.

          Section 4.12. Subsidiaries. Schedule 4.12 sets forth the name of, the ownership
interest of the Borrower in, and the jurisdiction of incorporation of, each Financial Institution
Subsidiary and each other Subsidiary, in each case as of the Closing Date.

Subsidiary.

any restrictions (excluding any restrictions on the payment of dividends referenced in subsection
(a) above) imposed by or agreed to with, any Governmental Authority, other than routine
examinations by such Governmental Authorities.

          Section 4.14. Capital Measures. On the Closing Date, both the Borrower and each
Financial Institution Subsidiary have been, or are deemed to have been, notified by the appropriate
Governmental Authority having regulatory authority over each of them that each of them is “well
capitalized”, as determined in accordance with any regulations established by such Governmental
Authority.

          Section 4.15. FDIC Insurance. The deposits of each Financial Institution Subsidiary
that is an “insured depository institution” (within the meaning of § 12 U. S. C. 1831(c)) are
insured by the FDIC and no act has occurred that would adversely affect the status of such
Financial Institution Subsidiary as an FDIC insured bank.

whose property or interest in property is blocked or subject to blocking pursuant to Section 1 of

Obstruct Terrorism (USA Patriot Act of 2001). No part of the proceeds of the Revolving Loans will
be used, 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

          (a) No failure or delay by the Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or any other
Loan Document, and no course of dealing between the Borrower and the Lender, shall operate as a
waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power or any

rights and remedies of the Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and
are not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law. No waiver of any provision of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom shall in
any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and

for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Revolving Loan
shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, regardless of whether the
Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default or Event of Default at the time.

          (b) No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, nor
consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same

consummated), and (ii) all out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation, the
reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of outside counsel and the allocated cost of inside
counsel) incurred by the Lender in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in

Revolving Loans made hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any
workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Revolving Loans.

liabilities, claims, damages and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of
any counsel for any Indemnitee, which may be incurred by any Indemnitee, or asserted against any
Indemnitee by the Borrower or any third Person, arising out of, in connection with or as a result

contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations
hereunder or the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Revolving
Loan or any actual or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom, (iii) any actual or alleged presence

foregoing, whether brought by the Borrower or any third Person and whether based on contract, tort,
or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided,
that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses,
claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction in a final and nonappealable judgment.to have resulted from the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.

          (c) The Borrower shall pay, and hold the Lender harmless from and against, any and all present
and future stamp, documentary, and other similar taxes with respect to this Agreement and any other
Loan Documents, any collateral described therein, or any payments due thereunder, and save the
Lender harmless from and against any and all liabilities with respect to or resulting from any
delay or omission to pay such taxes.

          (d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower shall not assert, and hereby
waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect,
consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to actual or direct damages) arising out of, in
connection with or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated
hereby, the transactions contemplated therein, any Loan or the Letter of Credit or the use of
proceeds thereof.

attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void).

          (b) The Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights

give its prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld
or delayed) to any assignment, except an assignment to an Affiliate of the Lender or during the
occurrence and continuation of a Default or an Event of Default. Upon the execution and delivery of
an assignment agreement by the Lender and such assignee and payment by such assignee of an amount
equal to the purchase price agreed between the Lender and such assignee, such assignee shall become
a party to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and shall have the rights and obligations of
a Lender under this Agreement, and the Lender shall be released from its obligations hereunder to a
corresponding extent. Upon the consummation of any such assignment
hereunder, the Lender, the assignee and the Borrower shall make appropriate arrangements to
have new Revolving Credit Notes issued to reflect such assignment.

rights and obligations under this Agreement; provided, that (i) the Lender’s obligations
under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) the Lender shall remain solely responsible to the
other parties hereto for the performance of its obligations hereunder, and (iii) the Borrower shall

to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of this Agreement and the other Loan

interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b); provided, that no Participant shall be
entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.10 than the Lender would have been
entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant unless the sale of
such participation is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent.

its rights under this Agreement and the Revolving Credit Note to secure its obligations to a
Federal Reserve Bank without complying with this Section; provided, that no such pledge or
assignment shall release the Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such
pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

proceeding may be heard and determined in such Georgia state court or, to the extent permitted by

such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by
suit on
the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan
Document shall affect any right that the Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or
proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against the Borrower or its
properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or proceeding described in paragraph

the parties hereto
irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the defense of an
inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, the Lender shall have the
right, at any time or from time to time upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event

Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply against all deposits
(general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) of the Borrower at any time held or
other obligations at any time owing by the Lender to or for the credit or the account of the
Borrower against any and all Obligations held by the Lender, irrespective of whether the Lender
shall have made demand hereunder and although such Obligations may be unmatured. The Lender agrees
promptly to notify the Borrower after any such set-off and any application made by the Lender;
provided, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such
set-off and application.

          Section 9.8. Counterparts; Integration. This Agreement may be executed by one or
more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts (including by
telecopy), and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the
same instrument. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and any separate letter agreement(s)
relating to any fees payable to the Lender constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereto
and thereto regarding the subject matters hereof and thereof and supersede all prior agreements and
understandings, oral or written, regarding such subject matters.

          Section 9.9. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made
by the Borrower herein and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or
pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto
and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Revolving
Loans, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and
notwithstanding that the Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect
representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full
force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Revolving Loan or any
fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid and so long as the
Revolving Commitment has not
expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.10 and
9.3 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Revolving Loans, the expiration or
termination of the Revolving Commitment or the termination of this Agreement or any provision
hereof. All representations and warranties made herein, in the certificates, reports, notices, and
other documents delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the execution and delivery of
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the making of the Revolving Loans.

          Section 9.10. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, shall, as to such
jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such illegality, invalidity or unenforceability
without affecting the legality, validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof or
thereof; and the illegality, invalidity or unenforceability of a particular provision in a
particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other
jurisdiction.

          Section 9.11. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Revolving Loan, together with all
fees, charges and other amounts which may be treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law
(collectively, the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate of interest (the “Maximum
Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender in
accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Revolving Loan
hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum
Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect
of such Revolving Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this

30

 

Section shall be
cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to the Lender in respect of other Revolving Loans or
periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount,
together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been
received by the Lender.

          Section 9.12. Patriot Act. The Lender hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant
to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October
26, 2001)) (the “Patriot Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information
that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and
other information that will allow the Lender to identify the Borrower in accordance with the
Patriot Act. The Borrower shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, provide to the
extent commercially reasonable, such information and take such other actions as are reasonably
requested by the Lender in order to assist the Lender in maintaining compliance with the Patriot
Act.
