ARTICLE II: LOANS, LETTERS OF CREDIT AND BANKER’S ACCEPTANCES

2.01. Revolving Credit Commitment.

Commitment: The Bank agrees on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth to make financial accommodations by means of Banker’s Acceptances, Letters of Credit, and loans (individually a “Loan” and collectively the “Loans”) to or for the benefit of the Borrower from time to time during the period from the Closing Date up to but not including the Termination Date in an aggregate amount which shall not exceed at any time outstanding Twenty Million Dollars ($20,000,000.00) (the “Commitment”). Each financial accommodation hereunder which shall not utilize the Commitment in full shall be in an amount not less than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00). Within the limits of the Commitment, and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, the Borrower may borrow, prepay pursuant to Section 2.10, and reborrow under this Section 2.01, from time to time.

Letters of Credit Sublimit and Banker’s Acceptances: In lieu of Loans under the Commitment, the Borrower may request the Bank (i) to accept a draft or ▇▇▇▇ of exchange drawn by the Borrower upon the Bank (each, a “Banker’s Acceptance” and, collectively, the “Banker’s Acceptances”), or (ii) to issue a letter of credit (each, a “Letter of Credit” and, collectively, the “Letters of Credit”) in favor of a designated beneficiary. Such Letters of Credit or Banker’s Acceptances shall be on such terms and conditions as shall be requested by the Borrower and are reasonably satisfactory to the Bank by delivering to the Bank a duly completed Application in such form and with such other certificates, documents, indemnities and other information as the Bank may specify from time to time by no later than 10:30 a.m., Philadelphia Pennsylvania time, at least five (5) Business

Days, or such shorter period as may be agreed to by the Bank, in advance of the proposed date of issuance for the account of the Borrower. Each Banker’s Acceptance and Letter of Credit shall be denominated in Dollars. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Bank will accept one or more Banker’s Acceptances or issue one or more Letters of Credit, provided, that each Letter of Credit shall (a) have a maximum maturity of 365 days from the date of issuance, and (b) in no event expire no later than One (1) Business Day prior to the Termination Date, and provided further, that in no event shall (c) the amount of all Letters of Credit at any one time exceed $5,000,000.00, or (d) the aggregate outstanding principal balance of all Loans plus the aggregate amount available to be drawn under all Letters of Credit plus the aggregate amount of unreimbursed drawings under all Letters of Credit plus the aggregate face amount of all outstanding Banker’s Acceptances (“Total Outstandings”) at any one time exceed the Commitment. The Bank shall not at any time be obligated to accept any Banker’s Acceptance or issue any Letter of Credit hereunder if such action would conflict with, or cause the Bank to exceed any limits imposed by, any applicable Requirement of Law. All Banker’s Acceptances and Letters of Credit are to be used by Borrower solely for a business purpose acceptable to the Bank. The Bank’s obligation to issue Letters of Credit or to accept Banker’s Acceptances shall terminate if Borrower is in Default (however denominated) hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, or in any case, if not sooner terminated, no later than One (1) Business Day prior to the Termination Date. The Commitment shall at all times be deemed to be utilized by the amount of the Letter of Credit/Banker’s Acceptance Obligations from time to time for all purposes of this Agreement. Borrower shall pay to Bank, on the maturity date of each Banker’s Acceptance, a commission (“Banker’s Acceptance Commission”) on the principal amount of each Banker’s Acceptance at the Banker’s Acceptance Commission Rate in connection with each Banker’s Acceptance. Borrower shall pay to Bank, at such times as Bank shall customarily require the Bank’s standard fees in connection with each Letter of Credit, as in effect from time to time, plus an additional fee (“Letter of Credit Fee”) equal to the Letter of Credit Fee Rate in effect from time to time on the face amount of each Letter of Credit (computed in each case on the basis of the actual number of days such Letters of Credit are outstanding in a year of 360 days). Each Letter of Credit Fee shall be payable annually, in advance, for so long as such Letter of Credit is outstanding and on the Termination Date. Once paid, each Letter of Credit Fee and Banker’s Acceptance Commission shall be nonrefundable under all circumstances.

The Borrower agrees to reimburse the Bank in respect of a Letter of Credit or a Banker’s Acceptance on each date on which a draft presented under a Letter of Credit is paid by the Bank or on the maturity date of a Banker’s Acceptance for the amount of (a) such Banker’s Acceptance or Letter of Credit draft so paid and (b) any taxes, fees, charges or other costs or expenses incurred by the Bank in connection with such payment. Each such payment shall be made to the Bank in Dollars and in immediately available funds. Interest shall be payable on any and all amounts remaining unpaid by the Borrower under this Section 2.01 (2) from the date such amounts become payable until payment in full (i) for the first three days at the per annum rate equal to the Prime Rate and (ii) thereafter, at the per annum rate equal to the Prime Based Rate plus 4.0%, and shall be payable by the Borrower on demand by the Bank.

2.02. Termination or Reduction of Commitment. The Borrower shall have the right without penalty or premium, upon at least three (3) Business Days’ notice to the Bank, to terminate in whole or reduce in part the unused portion of the Commitment in excess of the Letter of Credit/Banker’s Acceptance Obligations, provided that each partial reduction shall be in the amount of not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00).

The Commitment once reduced or terminated may not be reinstated.

2.03. Notice and Manner of Borrowing for Loans. The Borrower shall give the Bank irrevocable written or telephonic notice of a request (effective upon receipt) for a Borrowing under this Agreement not later than 11:00 a.m. Philadelphia, Pennsylvania time at the office of Bank first shown above (1) on the same business day as each proposed Prime Loan and (2) at least 2 business days before each proposed LIBOR Loan. Each such notice shall specify (a) the Borrowing Date, which shall be a Business Day, (b) the amount of each Loan, (c) the Type of Loan, (d) in the case of a LIBOR Loan, the duration of the Interest Period applicable thereto, which period must correspond to one of the Interest Rate options, and (e) the purpose of the Loan. Notices received after 11:00 a.m. Philadelphia, Pennsylvania time at the office of Bank first shown above shall be deemed received on the next Business Day. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein: (i) If the Borrower shall have failed to designate the Type of Loan, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Prime Loan; and (ii) If the Borrower shall have failed to select the duration of the Interest Period to be applicable to any LIBOR Loan, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period with a duration of one month.

Each telephonic request must be promptly confirmed in writing if requested by the Bank and by such method as the Bank may require. The Borrower authorizes the Bank to accept telephonic requests for a Loan, and the Bank shall be entitled to rely upon the authority of any person providing such request or instruction. Not later than 2:00 p.m. Philadelphia, Pennsylvania time on the date of such Loan and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, the Bank will make such Loan available to the Borrower in immediately available funds by crediting the amount thereof to the Borrower’s account with the Bank. If Borrower subscribes to Bank’s cash management services and such services are applicable to this revolving line of credit, the terms of such service shall control the manner in which funds are transferred between the applicable demand deposit account and the line of credit for credit or debit to the line of credit.

2.04. Interest Rate Options for Loans. At the election of Borrower, the unpaid principal balance of each Loan shall bear interest from the date such Loan is made available to the Borrower at the available LIBOR Based Rate or the Prime Based Rate selected by Borrower in accordance herewith (each, an “Interest Rate”). Borrower shall select the Interest Rate and for each LIBOR Loan, the Interest Period to which such Interest Rate will continuously apply in accordance with the terms of Section 2.03 or 2.06 hereof. There shall be no more than one Interest Rate for any Loan in effect at any time. No Interest Period selection is required for any Prime Loan.

Interest and fees, if any, shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days in the applicable period (“Actual/360 Computation”). The Actual/360 Computation determines the annual effective yield by taking the stated (nominal) rate for a year’s period and then dividing said rate by 360 to determine the daily periodic rate to be applied for each day in the applicable period. Application of the Actual/360 Computation produces an annualized effective rate exceeding the nominal rate.

If, at any time, the rate of interest, together with all amounts which constitute interest and which are reserved, charged or taken by Bank as compensation for fees, services or expenses incidental to the making, negotiating or collection of the Obligations evidenced hereby, shall be deemed by any competent court of law, governmental agency or tribunal to exceed the maximum rate of interest permitted to be charged by Bank to Borrower under applicable law, then, during such time as such rate of interest would be deemed excessive, that portion of each sum paid attributable to that portion of such interest rate that exceeds the maximum rate of interest so permitted shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment of principal. As used herein, the term ‘applicable law” shall mean the law in effect as of the date hereof provided, however, that in the event there is a change in

the law which results in a higher permissible rate of interest, then this Agreement shall be governed by such new law as of its effective date.

2.05. Note. All Loans or other advances made by the Bank under this Agreement shall be evidenced by a single promissory Note of the Borrower, duly completed, in the principal amount of Twenty Million Dollars ($20,000,000.00), dated the date of this Agreement, payable to the Bank and maturing as to principal on the Termination Date. All Loans or other advances hereunder shall bear interest from the date thereof on the outstanding principal balance thereof as set forth in this Agreement. The Bank is hereby authorized by the Borrower to keep computer-stored records of the amount of each advance hereunder and each renewal, conversion, and payment of principal amount received by the Bank for the account of the applicable Lending Office on account of each advance hereunder, which records shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive as to the outstanding balance of the Loans or other advances made by the Bank; provided, however, that the failure to keep such records with respect to any advance or renewal, conversion, or payment shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement or the Note.

2.06. Conversions and Renewals of Loans. The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert all or a part of one Type of Loan into another Type of Loan or to renew all or part of a Loan by giving the Bank notice at least one (1) Business Day before conversion into a Prime Loan, and at least two (2) Business Days before the conversion into or renewal of a LIBOR Loan, specifying: (1) the renewal or conversion date; (2) the amount of the Loan to be converted or renewed; (3) in the case of conversions, the Type of Loan to be converted into; and (4) in the case of renewals of or a conversion into LIBOR Loans, the duration of the Interest Period applicable thereto; provided that (a) the aggregate minimum principal amount of all Loans outstanding after a renewal or conversion thereof on a single date shall be Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00); and (b) a LIBOR Loan can be converted only on the last day of the Interest Period for such LIBOR Loan. All notices given under this Section shall be irrevocable and shall be given not later than 11:00 A.M. Philadelphia, Pennsylvania time on the day which is not less than the number of Business Days specified above for such notice. If the Borrower shall fail to give the Bank the notice as specified above for the renewal or conversion of a LIBOR Loan prior to the end of the Interest Period with respect thereto, such LIBOR Loan shall automatically be converted into a Prime Loan on the last day of the Interest Period for such LIBOR Loan. If any Default or Event of Default has occurred and the Bank does not otherwise elect to exercise any right to accelerate the Loans, a maturing LIBOR Loan shall automatically be continued as a Prime Loan. During the period(s) that the Loan is classified as a Prime Loan, the Borrower shall make regular payments of principal and interest when due and in amounts set forth in Section 2.07 hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all Loans shall mature and become payable in full on the Termination Date.

2.07. Repayment of Loans. The Borrower shall pay interest to the Bank on the outstanding and unpaid principal amount of the Loans made under this Agreement at a rate per annum as follows:

(1)

For a Prime Loan at a rate equal to the Prime Based Rate.

(2)

For a LIBOR Loan at a rate equal to the LIBOR Based Rate.

Interest on the Loans shall be paid in immediately available funds at the Lending Office as follows:

(1) For each Prime Loan, in arrears, on the first Business Day of each month, commencing the first such day after such Loan and at maturity for such Loan; and

(2) For each LIBOR Loan on the last day of the Interest Period with respect thereto.

All outstanding principal under the Loans and all accrued interest thereon shall be repaid on the Termination Date. All payments shall be applied first to the payment of all fees, expenses and other amounts due to the Bank (excluding principal and interest), then to accrued interest, and the balance on account of outstanding principal; provided, however, that after the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default payments will be applied to the obligations of Borrower to Bank as Bank determines in its sole discretion. Whenever any payment to be made under this Agreement or under the Note shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of the payment of interest and fees in connection with such payment.

2.08. Interest after Maturity of Loans. Upon the occurrence of a Default (whether or not Bank has accelerated payment of the indebtedness due hereunder), or after maturity or after judgment has been rendered hereunder or under any other Loan Agreement, Borrower’s right to select optional Interest Rates shall cease and the unpaid principal of all Obligations hereunder shall, at the option of Bank, bear interest thereafter at a rate per annum (“Default Rate”) equal to:

(1) For each Prime Loan at a rate equal to the Prime Based Rate plus four percent (4%);

(2) For each LIBOR Loan at a rate equal to the LIBOR Based Rate plus four percent (4%) from time of Default until the end of the then current Interest Period therefor, and thereafter at a rate equal to the Prime Based Rate plus four percent (4%).

2.09. Mandatory Prepayment of Loans. In the event that, at any time, the Total Outstandings shall exceed the Commitment at such time (after giving effect to any concurrent termination or reduction thereof), the Borrower will immediately prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Loans in the amount of such excess. Such payment shall be applied by the Bank in such order as the Bank in its sole discretion shall select and within each Type of Loans the Bank shall apply such payment to repayment of Loans in such order as the Bank in its sole discretion shall select. Upon such prepayment by the Borrower, the Bank shall advise the Borrower of, and the Borrower shall immediately pay to the Bank accrued and unpaid interest on the amount of each prepayment of each Loan accrued at the rate applicable to such Loan to the date of such prepayment together with all other additional amounts deemed necessary by the Bank to compensate the Bank for any losses, costs or expenses which the Bank may be deemed to incur as a result of such prepayments.

2.10. Optional Prepayment of Loans. The Borrower may at its option, upon at least one (1) Business Day’s notice to the Bank in the case of Prime Loan, and at least three (3) Business Days’ notice to the Bank in the case of each LIBOR Loan, prepay without premium or penalty any Loan in whole or in part with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the amount prepaid, provided that (1) each partial prepayment shall be in a principal amount of not less than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00); and (2) LIBOR Loans may be prepaid only on the last day of the Interest Period for such LIBOR Loan. Any prepayment of a LIBOR Loan not made in accordance herewith shall be accompanied by such additional amounts deemed necessary by the Bank to compensate the Bank for any losses, costs or expenses which the Bank may be deemed to incur as a result of such prepayments. No prepayment will affect the Borrower’s obligation to continue to make payments under any Swap Agreements which will remain in full force and effect notwithstanding that prepayment.

2.11. Method of Payment. The Borrower shall make each payment under this Agreement and under the Note not later than 1:00 p.m. Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, time on the date when due in lawful money of the United States to the Bank at the Lending Office for the account of the applicable Lending Office in immediately available funds. The Borrower hereby authorizes the Bank, if and to the extent payment is not made when due under this Agreement or under the Note, to charge automatically from time to time against any account of any Borrower with the Bank any amount so due. Borrower further certifies that Borrower holds legitimate ownership of such account(s) and preauthorizes this periodic debit as part of its right under said ownership. Until the Obligations are paid in full, each Borrower grants to Bank a security interest and continuing lien in all of Borrower’s accounts with Bank or any of its Affiliates.

2.12. Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of all advances hereunder shall be used by the Borrower for general corporate purposes. The Borrower will not, directly or indirectly, use any part of such proceeds in violation of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or to extend credit to any Person for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any margin stock.

2.13. Recovery of Payments. The Borrower agrees that to the extent the Borrower makes a payment or payments to or for the account of the Bank, which payment or payments or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or repayment, the Obligation intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been received.

2.14. Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, if the adoption of any applicable law, rule, or regulation, or any change therein, 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 compliance by the Bank with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank, or comparable agency shall make it unlawful or impossible for the Bank to (1) maintain its Commitment, then upon notice to the Borrower by the Bank the Commitment of the Bank shall terminate; or (2) maintain or fund its LIBOR Loans, then upon notice to the Borrower by the Bank the outstanding principal amount of the LIBOR Loans, together with interest accrued thereon, and any other amounts payable to the Bank under this Agreement shall be repaid (a) immediately upon demand of the Bank if such change or compliance with such request, in the judgment of the Bank, requires immediate repayment; or (b) at the expiration of the last Interest Period to expire before the effective date of any such change or request.

2.15. Disaster. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if the Bank determines (which determination shall be conclusive) that:

(1) Quotations of interest rates for the relevant deposits referred to in the definition of LIBOR Based Rate are not being provided in the relevant amounts or for the relative maturities for purposes of determining the rate of interest on such Loan as provided in this Agreement; or

(2) The relevant rates of interest referred to in the definition of a LIBOR Based Rate, upon the basis of which the rate of interest for any such type of Loan is to be determined, do not accurately cover the cost to the Bank of making or maintaining such Type of Loans;

then the Bank shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrower, whereupon until the Bank notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, (a) the obligation of the Bank to

make Loans shall be suspended; and (b) the Borrower shall repay in full the then outstanding principal amount of each LIBOR Loan together with accrued interest thereon on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Loan.

2.16. Funding Loss Indemnification. Borrower may prepay a LIBOR Loan only upon at least three (3) Business Days prior written notice to Bank (which notice shall be irrevocable) and any such prepayment shall occur only on the last day of the Interest Period for such LIBOR Loan. Borrower shall pay to Bank, upon request of Bank, such amount or amounts as shall be sufficient (in the reasonable opinion of Bank) to compensate it for any loss, cost, or expense incurred as a result of (1) any payment of a LIBOR Loan on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period for such LIBOR Loan; (2) any failure by Borrower to borrow a LIBOR Loan on the date specified by Borrower’s written notice; (3) any failure by Borrower to pay a LIBOR Loan on the date for payment specified in Borrower’s written notice. Without limiting the foregoing, Borrower shall pay to Bank a “yield maintenance fee” in an amount computed as follows: The current rate for United States Treasury securities (bills on a discounted basis shall be converted to a bond equivalent) with a maturity date closest to the term chosen pursuant to the LIBOR Rate Election as to which the prepayment is made, shall be subtracted from the LIBOR in effect at the time of prepayment. If the result is zero or a negative number, there shall be no yield maintenance fee. If the result is a positive number, then the resulting percentage shall be multiplied by the amount of the principal balance being prepaid. The resulting amount shall be divided by 360 and multiplied by the number of days remaining in the term chosen pursuant to the LIBOR Rate Election as to which the prepayment is made. Said amount shall be reduced to present value calculated by using the above referenced United States Treasury securities rate and the number of days remaining in the term chosen pursuant to the LIBOR Rate Election as to which prepayment is made. The resulting amount shall be the yield maintenance fee due to Bank upon the prepayment of a LIBOR Loan. Each reference in this paragraph to “LIBOR Rate Election” shall mean the election by Borrower of a LIBOR Based Rate. If by reason of a Default or an Event of Default, Bank elects to declare the Obligations to be immediately due and payable, then any yield maintenance fee with respect to a LIBOR Loan shall become due and payable in the same manner as though Borrower had exercised such right of prepayment.

2.17. Increased Cost. The Borrower shall pay to the Bank from time to time such amounts as the Bank may determine to be necessary to compensate the Bank for any costs incurred by the Bank which the Bank determines are attributable to its making or maintaining any LIBOR Loans hereunder or its obligation to make any such Loans hereunder, or any reduction in any amount receivable by the Bank under this Agreement or the Note in respect of any such Loans or such obligation (such increases in costs and reductions in amounts receivable being herein called “Additional Costs”), resulting from any change after the date of this Agreement in United States federal, state, municipal, or foreign laws or regulations (including Regulation D) or the adoption or making after such date of any interpretations, directives or requirements applying to a class of banks including the Bank of or under any United States federal, state, municipal, or any foreign laws or regulations (whether or not having the force of law) by any court or governmental or monetary authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof (“Regulatory Change”), which: (1) changes the basis of taxation of any amounts payable to the Bank under this Agreement or the Note in respect of any of such Loans (other than taxes imposed on the overall net income of the Bank for any of such Loans by the jurisdiction where the Lending Office is located); or (2) imposes or modifies any reserve, special deposit, or similar requirements relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities of, the Bank; or (3) imposes any other condition affecting this Agreement or the Note (or any of such extensions of credit or liabilities).

2.18. Risk-Based Capital. If the Bank shall have determined that the applicability of any law, rule, regulation or guideline or the adoption after the date hereof of any other law, rule, regulation or guidelines regarding capital adequacy, or any change in any of the foregoing or in the interpretation or administration of any of the foregoing by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by the Bank 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 the Bank’s capital or on the capital of the Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by the Bank pursuant hereto to a level below that which the Bank or the Bank’s holding company, if any, could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration the Bank’s policies and the policies of the Bank’s holding company, if any, with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by the Bank to be material, then from time to time the Borrower shall pay to the Bank on demand such additional amount or amounts as will compensate the Bank or the Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. The Bank will notify the Borrower of any event occurring after the date of this Agreement that will entitle the Bank to compensation pursuant to this Section 2.15 as promptly as practicable after it obtains knowledge thereof and determines to request such compensation.

2.19. Bank’s Determination Conclusive; Notice of Amounts Due.

(1) Determinations by the Bank for purposes of Section 2.16, 2.17, and 2.18 shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(2) The Bank will notify the Borrower of any event occurring after the date of this Agreement that will entitle the Bank to compensation pursuant to Section 2.16, 2.17 or 2.18 as promptly as practicable after it obtains knowledge thereof and determines to request such compensation. Said notice shall be in writing, shall specify the applicable Section or Sections of this Agreement to which it relates and shall set forth the amount or amounts then payable pursuant to such Sections. The Borrower shall pay the Bank the amount shown as due on such notice within 10 days after its receipt of the same.

(3) Failure on the part of a Bank to demand compensation pursuant to Section2.16, 2.17 or 2.18 shall not constitute a waiver of the Bank’s right to demand compensation with respect to such period or any other period.

2.20. No Setoff or Deduction. All payments of principal and interest on the Loans and other amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder shall be made by the Borrower in Dollars in immediately available funds, without setoff or counterclaim, and free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, or on account of, any present or future taxes or assessments imposed by any Governmental Authority, or by any departmental agency or other political subdivision or taxing authority.

2.21. Fees.

(1) Underwriting Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Bank on the Closing Date a nonrefundable underwriting fee in the amount of $30,000.00, which shall be deemed earned upon the execution hereof.

(2) Commitment Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Bank a commitment fee on the average daily unused portion of the Commitment for the preceding calendar quarter or portion thereof at the Commitment Fee Rate, based on a year of 360 days, in effect from time to time, payable on March 31, 2004, and

on the first Business Day of each succeeding quarter thereafter with a final payment due and payable on the Termination Date.

2.22. Late Charge. If the entire amount of any required principal and/or interest is not paid in full within ten calendar (10) days after the same is due, Borrower shall pay to Bank a late fee equal to five percent (5%) of the required payment. This provision shall not be construed to change the due date of any payment to be made hereunder. Acceptance by Bank of any late payment without an accompanying late charge shall not be deemed a waiver of Bank’s right to collect such late charge or to collect a late charge for any subsequent late payment received.

(5) If any Obligor shall in any material respect fail to comply with any statute, rule, regulation, ordinance, order, law or judicial decree regarding said Obligor or any of its property or assets.

(8) The dissolution, merger, consolidation, reorganization or change of control of any Obligor which is a corporation, partnership, or other entity, without the prior written consent of the Bank.

(10) Any change in the financial condition or business operation of any Obligor that causes the Bank reasonably to believe that the performance of any of the Obligations is impaired or doubtful.

The Borrower agrees that the election by Bank of any right or remedy provided to it upon the occurrence of any Default shall be conclusively presumed to be done in good faith by Bank notwithstanding any prior course of

dealing or otherwise, including without limitation the acceptance by Bank of any partial payments on any Obligation.

8.02. Remedies of Bank. Upon the occurrence of:

(1) A Default specified in Section 8.01 (6) or 8.01 (7) (b) of this Agreement, the Commitment (including without limitation the obligations of the Bank to issue Letters of Credit or to accept Banker’s Acceptances) shall immediately terminate automatically and all Obligations (other than Obligations under any Swap Agreements between Borrower and Bank, or its affiliates, which shall be governed by the default and termination provisions of said Swap Agreements), including, without limitation, the obligation of the Borrower to repay any outstanding Banker’s Acceptances or Letters of Credit, whether or not the beneficiaries of the then outstanding Banker’s Acceptances or Letters of Credit shall have presented the documents required thereunder, shall immediately become due and payable;

(2) An Event of Default other than a Default specified in Section 8.01 (6) or 8.01 (7) (b), the Bank, without presentment, demand, protest, or notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower, may take any one or more of the following actions:

(a) Terminate the Commitment;

(b) Declare all or any of the Obligations (other than Obligations under any Swap Agreements between Borrower and Bank, or its affiliates, which shall be governed by the default and termination provisions of said Swap Agreements), to be due and payable immediately; and presentment, demand, protest and all other notices of any kind in connection with any Event of Default or acceleration are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower;

(d) Take such other remedies as may be available to the Bank under applicable law.

8.03. Set-Off. Borrower hereby grants Bank a continuing lien upon, security interest in and right of set off against as security for all Obligations to Bank, upon and against all deposits, credits, collateral and property, now or hereafter in the possession, custody, safekeeping or control of Bank or any entity under the control of Bank and its successors and assigns or in transit to any of them. At any time, without demand or notice (any such notice being expressly waived by Borrower), Bank may setoff the same or any part thereof and apply the same to any Obligation even though unmatured and regardless of the adequacy of any other collateral securing the Obligations. Bank is hereby authorized to charge any such account or indebtedness for any amounts due to Bank. Such right of set-off shall exist whether or not Bank shall have made any demand under this Agreement, the Note or any other Loan Document and whether or not the Note and the other Obligations are matured or unmatured. The Borrower hereby confirms Bank’s lien on such accounts and right of set-off, and nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed any waiver or prohibition of such lien and right of set-off. ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO REQUIRE BANK TO EXERCISE ITS RIGHTS OR REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO ANY OTHER COLLATERAL WHICH SECURES THE OBLIGATIONS PRIOT TO EXERCISING ITS RIGHT OF SETOFF WITH RESPECT TO SUCH DEPOSITS, CREDITS OR OTHER PROPERTY OF BORROWER ARE HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVED

All of the foregoing Indemnified Costs of any Indemnified Person shall be paid or reimbursed by the Borrower, as and when incurred and upon demand.

9.04. Assignment and Participation. This Agreement may not be assigned by the Borrower. Bank shall have the unrestricted right at any time or from time to time, and without Borrower’s or any Guarantor’s consent, to assign all or any portion of its rights and obligations hereunder to one or more banks or other financial institutions (each, an “Assignee”), and Borrower [and each Guarantor] agrees that it shall execute, or cause to be

executed, such documents, including without limitation, amendments to this Agreement and to any other documents, instruments and agreements executed in connection herewith as Bank shall deem necessary to effect the foregoing. In addition, at the request of Bank and any such Assignee, Borrower shall issue one or more new promissory notes as applicable, to any such Assignee and, if Bank has retained any of its rights and obligations hereunder following such assignment to Bank which new promissory notes shall be issued in replacement of; but not in discharge of, the liability evidenced by the promissory note held by Bank prior to such assignment and shall reflect the amount of the respective commitments and loans held by such Assignee and Bank after giving effect to such assignment. Upon the execution and delivery of appropriate assignment documentation, amendments and any other documentation required by Bank in connection with such assignment and the payment by Assignee of the purchase price agreed to by Bank and such Assignee, such Assignee shall be a party to this Agreement and shall have all of the rights and obligations of Bank hereunder (and under any and all other guaranties, documents, instruments and agreements executed in connection herewith) to the extent that such rights and obligations have been assigned by Bank pursuant to the assignment documentation between Bank and such Assignee, and Bank shall be released from its obligations hereunder and thereunder to a corresponding extent. Bank shall also have the unrestricted right at any time and from time to time, and without the consent of or notice to Borrower or any Guarantor to grant to one or more banks or other financial institutions (each, a “Participant’) participating interests in Bank’s obligation to lend hereunder and/or any or all of the loans held by Bank hereunder. In the event of any such grant by Bank of a participating interest to a Participant, whether or not upon notice to Borrower, Bank shall remain responsible for the performance of its obligations hereunder and Borrower shall continue to deal solely and directly with Bank in connection with Bank’s rights and obligations hereunder. Bank may furnish any information concerning Borrower in its possession from time to time to prospective Assignees or Participants, provided that Bank shall require any such prospective Assignees or Participants to agree in writing to maintain the confidentiality of such information. The foregoing is not to be understood as a limitation upon any other right or duty the Bank may have to make any disclosure to anyone under any applicable law. No action by the Bank hereunder shall be deemed to change any of the financial terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document without the express written consent of the Borrower.

9.05. Prior Understandings. This Agreement and the Loan Documents supersede all prior understandings and agreements, whether written or oral, between the parties hereto and thereto relating to the transactions provided for herein or therein.

9.06. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

9.07. No Waiver of Remedies. No delay or failure of the Bank in exercising any right, power, or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. The rights and remedies provided hereunder are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies (including, without limitation, the right of specific performance) which the Bank would otherwise have. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character on the part of the Bank of any breach or default under this Agreement, the Note or any other Loan Document or any such waiver of any provision or condition hereof or thereof must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent in such writing specifically set forth. The Borrower acknowledges that with respect to this Agreement and its terms the Borrower is neither authorized nor entitled to rely on any representations, modifications or assurances in any form

or as to any subject from any officer of the Bank unless and until such representation, modification or assurance is set forth in writing and signed by such officer of the Bank.

9.08. Taxes. The Borrower agrees to pay or cause to be paid any and all stamp, document, transfer or recording taxes, and similar impositions payable or hereafter determined to be payable in connection with the Loan Documents, and agrees to save the Bank harmless from and against any and all present or future claims or liabilities with respect to, or resulting from, any delay in paying or omission to pay, any such taxes or similar impositions.

9.09. Governing Law and Consent to Jurisdiction. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents have been executed, delivered and accepted in, and shall be deemed to have been made in, Pennsylvania and shall be governed by and construed and enforced and construed as if drafted equally by all parties hereto in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (without regard to the conflicts of law provisions thereof). The Borrower hereby consents to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any state court within ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ County, Pennsylvania or any federal court located within the Eastern District of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania for any proceeding instituted hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, or arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or any proceeding to which the Bank or the Borrower is a party, including any actions based upon, arising out of, or in connection with, any course of conduct, course of dealing, statement (whether oral or written) or actions of the Bank or the Borrower. The Borrower irrevocably agrees to be bound (subject to any available right of appeal) by any judgment rendered or relief granted thereby and further waives any objection that it may have based on lack of jurisdiction or improper venue or forum non-conveniens to the conduct of any such proceeding. The Borrower consents that all service of process be made by registered or certified mail directed to it at its address set forth herein above, and service so made shall be deemed to be completed upon the earlier of actual receipt thereof or three (3) days after deposit in the United States mails, return receipt requested, proper postage prepaid and properly addressed. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed or operate to affect the rights of the Bank to serve legal process or to bring any action permitted by law against any Obligor or involving any Collateral in the appropriate court of any other appropriate jurisdiction or forum.

9.10. Severability of Provisions. Any provision of any Loan Document which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions of such Loan Document or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

9.11 Survival of Agreement pursuant hereto shall survive the making by the Bank of the Loans or any Letter of Credit and the execution and delivery to the Bank of the Note and shall continue in full force and effect so long as any Obligation is outstanding and unpaid.

Borrower specifically waives any right to any form of notice or to any acknowledgment by agent which might be applicable pursuant to the Pennsylvania Probate, Estates and Fiduciaries Code (“Probate Code”), as amended, to any power of attorney, or any warrant of attorney to confess judgment, granted herein and hereby directs that any power of attorney, or any warrant of attorney to confess judgment, granted herein not be construed in accordance with the terms of the Probate Code.

9.13. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower and the Bank and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights under any Loan Document to which the Borrower is a party without the prior written consent of the Bank.

9.14. Joint and Several Liability, and each such Borrower shall be deemed to have made the representations and warranties herein set forth.

9.15. Waiver of Jury Trial and Certain Damages. The Borrower irrevocably waives, and the Bank by its acceptance hereof thereby waives, any right or claim to a trial by jury in any legal proceeding involving, directly or indirectly, any matter (whether sounding in tort, contract, or otherwise) in any way arising out of or related to this Agreement or any Loan Document. The Borrower further waives any right it may have to claim or recover, in any such suit, action or proceeding, any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages or any damages other than, or in addition to, actual damages. This provision is a material inducement for the Bank to enter the loan relationship evidenced hereby.
