2.7.1 Commitment Fee.

For the period from the Closing Date to the Termination Date, Borrower agrees to pay to Lender a Commitment Fee equal to the Applicable Margin multiplied by the amount by which the Revolving Loan Commitment exceeds the average daily Revolving Loans outstanding.

The Commitment Fee shall be computed by Lender for the actual number of days elapsed on the basis of a year of 360 days.

2.9.1 Voluntary Prepayment.

Borrower may from time to time, on at least one Business Day’s written notice or telephonic notice (if a telephonic notice, followed immediately by written confirmation thereof), which notice and confirmation (each a “Voluntary Prepayment Notice”) shall specify that Borrower is electing to voluntarily prepay the Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.9.1 and that portion, if any, of such prepayment that will constitute a Term Loan Voluntary Paydown Amount, to Lender not later than 1:00 p.m. New York City time on such day, prepay the Term Loans in whole or in part; provided that Borrower may not prepay all or any portion of the Term B Loans if, either immediately prior to or after giving effect to any such prepayment, any portion

(c) Notwithstanding Section 2.9.2(a), on each Monday during the term of the Revolving Loan Commitment and for so long as there are Revolving Loans outstanding, Borrower shall prepay the Revolving Loans until the outstanding amount thereof is reduced to zero in an amount equal to the Excess Cash at the time of such payment. Payments pursuant to this Section 2.9.2(c) shall not result in a reduction in the Revolving Loan Commitment.

(d) If upon receipt of any Sponsor Investment there are Revolving Loans then outstanding, Borrower shall immediately prepay Revolving Loans with the proceeds of such Sponsor Investment until the outstanding amount of Revolving Loans is reduced to zero.

2.11.4 Set-off.

2.12 Letters of Credit.

2.12.1 At the request of Borrower, Lender will issue (or will cause to be issued under the Madison Credit Facility) from time to time before the date which is 30 days prior to the

Termination Date either (at Lender’s election) (a) letters of credit and/or (b) participation agreements confirming payment to issuers (reasonably acceptable to Lender) of standby letters of credit, in each case for the account of Borrower or any Subsidiary and containing terms and conditions which are consistent with this Agreement and reasonably satisfactory to Lender (each such participation agreement, a “Letter of Credit”). After giving effect to each such issuance, the aggregate Stated Amount of all Letters of Credit (whether issued pursuant to this Agreement or under the Madison Credit Facility) shall not at any time exceed $70,000,000 plus the aggregate Term Loan Voluntary Paydown Amount, if any, as of such time. “Stated Amount” means, with respect to any Letter of Credit at any date of determination, (a) the maximum aggregate amount available for drawing thereunder under any and all circumstances, plus (b) the aggregate amount of all unreimbursed payments and disbursements under such Letter of Credit.

2.12.2 Borrower shall give notice to Lender of the proposed issuance of each Letter of Credit on a Business Day which is at least fifteen (15) Business Days (or such lesser number of days as Lender shall agree) prior to the proposed date of issuance of such Letter of Credit. Each such notice shall be accompanied by a Letter of Credit application in form acceptable to Lender, duly executed by Borrower, together with such other documentation as Lender may request in support thereof, it being understood that each Letter of Credit application shall specify, among other things, the date on which the proposed Letter of Credit is to be issued, and the expiration date of such Letter of Credit (which shall not be later than the 30 days prior to the scheduled Termination Date). So long as Lender has not received written notice that the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.2 have not been satisfied, Lender shall issue (or cause to be issued) such Letter of Credit on the requested issuance date.

2.12.3 Borrower hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees to reimburse Lender for each payment or disbursement made by Lender under any Letter of Credit honoring any demand for payment made thereunder, in each case on the date that such payment or disbursement is made. Lender shall promptly notify Borrower whenever any demand for payment is made under any Letter of Credit; provided, that the failure of Lender to so notify Borrower shall not affect the rights of Lender in any manner whatsoever. Any amount not reimbursed on the date of such payment or disbursement shall bear interest from the date of such payment or disbursement to the date that Lender is reimbursed by Borrower therefor, payable on demand, at the interest rate per annum from time to time in effect for Revolving Loans which are Base Rate Loans.

2.12.4 Borrower’s reimbursement obligations hereunder shall be irrevocable and unconditional under all circumstances, including (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right which any Loan Party may have at any time against a beneficiary named in a Letter of Credit, any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such transferee may be acting), Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with any Letter of Credit, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transactions (including any underlying transaction between any Loan Party and the beneficiary named in any Letter of Credit), (iii) the validity, sufficiency or genuineness of any document which Lender (or, as applicable, the issuer of any underlying letter of credit) has determined complies on its face with the terms of the applicable Letter of Credit (or, if applicable, underlying letter of credit), even if such document should later prove to have been forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein shall have been

untrue or inaccurate in any respect, or (iv) the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms hereof.

2.12.5 If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, if requested in writing by Lender, Borrower shall immediately cash collateralize in full all the Letters of Credit in a manner acceptable to Lender.

Section 3. Yield Protection.

3.1 Taxes.

(a) All payments of principal and interest on the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any present or future income, excise, stamp, documentary, property or franchise taxes and other taxes, fees, duties, levies, withholdings or other charges of any nature whatsoever imposed by any taxing authority, excluding taxes imposed on or measured by Lender’s net income by the jurisdiction under which Lender is organized or conducts business (all non-excluded items being called “Taxes”). If any withholding or deduction from any payment to be made by Borrower hereunder is required in respect of any Taxes pursuant to any applicable law, rule or regulation, then Borrower will: (i) pay directly to the relevant authority the full amount required to be so withheld or deducted; (ii) promptly forward to Lender an official receipt or other documentation satisfactory to Lender evidencing such payment to such authority; and (iii) pay to Lender such additional amount or amounts as is necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by Lender will equal the full amount Lender would have received had no such withholding or deduction been required. If any Taxes are directly asserted against Lender with respect to any payment received by Lender hereunder, Lender may pay such Taxes and Borrower will promptly pay such additional amounts (including any penalty, interest or expense) as is necessary in order that the net amount received by such Person after the payment of such Taxes (including any Taxes on such additional amount) shall equal the amount such Person would have received had such Taxes not been asserted so long as such amounts have accrued on or after the day which is 180 days prior to the date on which Lender first made demand therefor; provided, that if the event giving rise to such costs or reductions has retroactive effect, such 180 day period shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect.

(b) If Borrower fails to pay any Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to Lender the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, Borrower shall indemnify Lender for any incremental Taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by Lender as a result of any such failure.

(c) Each Assignee that (i) is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction other than the United States of America and (ii) becomes an assignee of an interest under this Agreement under Section 9.8.1 after the Closing Date (unless such Person was already a Lender hereunder immediately prior to such assignment) shall execute and deliver to Borrower and Lender one or more (as Borrower or Lender may reasonably request) Forms W-8ECI, W-8BEN, W-8IMY (as applicable) or other applicable form, certificate or document prescribed by the United States Internal Revenue Service certifying as to such Person’s entitlement to exemption from withholding or deduction of Taxes. Borrower shall not be required to pay additional amounts to

any Person pursuant to this Section 3.1 to the extent that the obligation to pay such additional amounts would not have arisen but for the failure of such Person or Lender to comply with this paragraph.

3.2 Increased Cost.

(a) If, after the Closing Date, the adoption of, or any change in, any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration of any applicable law, rule or regulation by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency shall impose on Lender any other condition affecting its LIBOR Loans, its Note or its obligation to make LIBOR Loans; and the result of anything described above is to increase the cost to (or to impose a cost on) Lender of making or maintaining any LIBOR Loan, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by Lender under this Agreement or under its Note with respect thereto, then upon demand by Lender (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth the basis for such demand and a calculation of the amount thereof in reasonable detail), Borrower shall pay directly to Lender such additional amount as will compensate Lender for such increased cost or such reduction, so long as such amounts have accrued on or after the day which is 180 days prior to the date on which Lender first made demand therefor; provided, that if the event giving rise to such costs or reductions has retroactive effect, such 180 day period shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect.

(b) If Lender shall reasonably determine that any change in, or the adoption or phase-in of, any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or the compliance by Lender or any Person controlling Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on Lender’s or such controlling Person’s capital as a consequence of Lender’s obligations hereunder to a level below that which Lender or such controlling Person could have achieved but for such change, adoption, phase-in or compliance (taking into consideration Lender’s or such controlling Person’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by Lender or such controlling Person to be material, then from time to time, upon demand by Lender (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth the basis for such demand and a calculation of the amount thereof in reasonable detail), Borrower shall pay to Lender such additional amount as will compensate Lender or such controlling Person for such reduction, so long as such amounts have accrued on or after the day which is 180 days prior to the date on which Lender first made demand therefor; provided, that if the event giving rise to such costs or reductions has retroactive effect, such 180 day period shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect.

3.3 Inadequate or Unfair Basis.

If Lender reasonably determines (which determination shall be binding and conclusive on Borrower) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the interbank Eurodollar

market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable LIBOR Rate, then Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower thereof and, so long as such circumstances shall continue, (a) Lender shall be under no obligation to make or convert any Base Rate Loans into LIBOR Loans and (b) on the last day of the current Interest Period for each LIBOR Loan, such Loan shall, unless then repaid in full, automatically convert to a Base Rate Loan.

3.4 Change in Law.

If any change in, or the adoption of any new, law or regulation, or any change in the interpretation of any applicable law or regulation by any governmental or other regulatory body charged with the administration thereof, would make it (or in the good faith judgment of Lender cause a substantial question as to whether it is) unlawful for Lender to make, maintain or fund LIBOR Loans, then Lender shall promptly notify each of the other parties hereto and, so long as such circumstances shall continue, (a) Lender shall have no obligation to make or convert any Base Rate Loan into a LIBOR Loan (but shall make Base Rate Loans in each case in an amount equal to the amount of LIBOR Loans which would be made or converted into by Lender at such time in the absence of such circumstances) and (b) on the last day of the current Interest Period for each LIBOR Loan of Lender (or, in any event, on such earlier date as may be required by the relevant law, regulation or interpretation), such LIBOR Loan shall, unless then repaid in full, automatically convert to a Base Rate Loan. Each Base Rate Loan made by Lender which, but for the circumstances described in the foregoing sentence, would be a LIBOR Loan shall remain outstanding for the period corresponding to the Interest Period originally applicable to such LIBOR Loan absent such circumstances.

3.5 Funding Losses.

Borrower hereby agrees that upon demand by Lender (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth the basis for the amount being claimed), Borrower will indemnify Lender for any loss, cost, liability, funding loss, or expense (in each case whether by reason of any reduction in yield, the liquidation or reemployment of any deposit or other funds acquired by the Lender, the fixing of any interest rate payable on LIBOR Loans, or otherwise) incurred directly or indirectly as a result of (a) any payment of any Obligation bearing a rate based upon the LIBOR Rate other than on the last day of the applicable LIBOR Interest Period for such Obligation, (b) any failure by Borrower to borrow an Obligation on the date specified in Borrower’s written notice of intention to borrow such Obligation at a rate based upon the LIBOR Rate, (c) any failure by Borrower to pay an Obligation bearing a rate based upon the LIBOR Rate on any date for payment specified in Borrower’s written notice of intention to pay such Obligation, or (d) other event pursuant to which a LIBOR Rate Loan is converted to a Base Rate Loan.

3.6 Conclusiveness of Statements; Survival.

Determinations and statements of Lender pursuant to this Section 3 shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error. Lender may use reasonable averaging and attribution methods in determining compensation under this Sections 3 and the provisions of such Sections shall survive repayment of the Loans, cancellation of the Notes and termination of this Agreement.

(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 9.8.1(a), the Borrower hereby authorizes and directs the Lender, for and on behalf of the Borrower, to maintain a record of ownership of the Notes and any interest therein, which record, or “book-entry system”, shall identify the owner or owners of the Notes and any such interests therein. The right to the principal of, and stated interest on, the Notes may be transferred only through such book-entry system.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.8.1 or any other provision of this Agreement, Lender may at any time assign all or any portion of its Loans and its Notes (i) as collateral security to a Federal Reserve Bank to Lender’s trustee for the benefit of its investors or to any other Person (but no such assignment shall release Lender from any of its obligations hereunder) and (ii) to (x) an Affiliate of Lender or (y) an Eligible Institution.

9.8.2 Participations.

Lender may at any time sell to one or more Persons participating interests in its Loans, Commitments or other interests hereunder (any such Person, a “Participant”). In the event of a sale by Lender of a participating interest to a Participant, (a) Lender’s obligations hereunder shall remain unchanged for all purposes, (b) Borrower shall continue to deal solely and directly with Lender in connection with Lender’s rights and obligations hereunder and (c) all amounts payable by Borrower shall be determined as if Lender had not sold such participation and shall be paid directly to Lender. No Participant shall have any direct or indirect voting rights hereunder. Borrower agrees that if amounts outstanding under this Agreement are due and payable (as a result of acceleration or otherwise), each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of set-off in respect of its participating interest in such amounts to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as Lender under this Agreement; provided that such right of set-off shall be subject to the obligation of each Participant to share with Lender, and Lender agrees to share with each Participant, as provided in Section 2.11.4. Borrower also agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 3 as if it were a Lender (provided that no Participant shall receive any greater compensation pursuant to Section 3 than would have been paid to Lender if no participation had been sold).

9.9 Confidentiality.

Lender agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts (equivalent to the efforts Lender applies to maintain the confidentiality of its own confidential information) to maintain as confidential all information provided to them by any Loan Party and designated as confidential, except that Lender may disclose such information (a) to Persons employed or engaged by Lender or any of its Affiliates (including collateral managers of Lender) in evaluating, approving, structuring or administering the Loans and the Commitments; (b) to any assignee or participant or potential assignee or participant that has agreed to comply with the covenant contained in this Section 9.9 (and any such assignee or participant or potential assignee or participant may disclose such information to Persons employed or engaged by them as described in clause (a) above); (c) as required or requested by any federal or state regulatory authority or examiner, or

any insurance industry association, or as reasonably believed by Lender to be compelled by any court decree, subpoena or legal or administrative order or process; (d) as, on the advice of Lender’s counsel, is required by law; (e) in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy under the Loan Documents or in connection with any litigation to which Lender is a party; (f) to any nationally recognized rating agency or investor of Lender that requires access to information about Lender’s investment portfolio in connection with ratings issued or investment decisions with respect to Lender; (g) that ceases to be confidential through no fault of Lender; (h) to a Person that is an investor or prospective investor in a Securitization that agrees that its access to information regarding the Borrower and the Loans and Commitments is solely for purposes of evaluating an investment in such Securitization and who agrees to treat such information as confidential; or (i) to a Person that is a trustee, collateral manager, servicer, noteholder or secured party in a Securitization in connection with the administration, servicing and reporting on the assets serving as collateral for such Securitization. For purposes of this Section, “Securitization” means a public or private offering by Lender or any of its Affiliates or their respective successors and assigns, of securities which represent an interest in, or which are collateralized, in whole or in part, by the Loans or the Commitments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower consents to the publication by Lender of a tombstone or similar advertising material relating to the financing transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and Lender reserves the right to provide to industry trade organizations information necessary and customary for inclusion in league table measurements.

9.15 Successors; Assigns.

This Agreement shall be binding upon Borrower and Lender and their respective successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of Borrower and Lender and the successors and assigns of Lender.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements, provisions and covenants contained herein and in the Credit Agreement, the parties agree as follows:

SECTION 1.2 Interpretations. In the case of this Agreement, (a) the meanings of defined terms are equally applicable to the singular and plural forms of the defined terms; (b) the term “including” is not limiting and means “including but not limited to”; (c) in the computation of periods of time from a specified date to a later specified date, the word “from” means “from and including”; the words “to” and “until” each mean “to but excluding”, and the word “through” means “to and including”; (d) unless otherwise expressly provided herein, references to agreements and other contractual instruments shall be deemed to include all subsequent amendments and other modifications thereto, but only to the extent such amendments and other modifications are not prohibited; (e) this Agreement is the result of negotiations among and have been reviewed by counsel to Bank, each Sponsor and Borrower and the other parties thereto and is the product of all such parties; accordingly, they shall not be construed against any party merely because of such party’s involvement in its preparation; and (f) the term “or” has, except where otherwise indicated, the inclusive meaning represented by the phrase “and/or”.

SECTION 2. Required Sponsor Investments in Borrower.

(a) Each Sponsor hereby absolutely, irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that on or before the date that is forty-five (45) days after each Fiscal Quarter-end for which a Sponsor Investment Event has occurred (as evidenced by the Compliance Certificate for such Fiscal Quarter-end, a copy of which shall be delivered to each Sponsor by Borrower concurrently with its delivery to Bank), such Sponsor shall make or cause to be made, via wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account as may from time to time be designated by Borrower, a Sponsor Investment in an amount equal to its Ratable Share of the applicable Sponsor Investment Amount.

(b) From the date of the occurrence of the Sponsor Investment Event and until the required Sponsor Investment Amount has been invested as a Sponsor Investment, the Sponsor Investment Amount shall be deemed to be held in trust by the applicable Sponsor for and as the property of the Borrower.

(c) In the event of the occurrence of a Sponsor Event of Default described in Section 8(b) with respect to a Sponsor Investment Event by a Sponsor (the “Defaulting Sponsor”), in addition to and without limiting the remedies of any party set forth in Section 9, the other Sponsor (provided a Sponsor Event of Default has not occurred and is continuing with respect to such other Sponsor) (the “Non-Defaulting Sponsor”) may, in addition to investing its Ratable Portion of the applicable Sponsor Investment Amount, invest an additional amount equal to the Defaulting Sponsor’s unpaid Sponsor Investment Amount in equity securities of Borrower, in each case in such class or classes of shares, in such manner and on such terms and subject to such conditions as the Non-Defaulting Sponsor and Borrower may agree.

(d) ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ hereby agrees that its preemptive rights under Section 3 of that certain Stockholders’ Agreement, dated as of February 1, 2008 and as may be amended from time to time, among the Company, CODI, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and the other Restricted Stockholders party thereto, shall not apply to any investment in the Company made by CODI pursuant to this Section 2 in Class D Common Stock at an issue price of not less than $6 per share, and hereby waives all notice provisions contained in such Section 3 with respect to such investments.
