If Borrower must deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any other Transaction Document to a Holder, (x) the sum payable shall be increased by the amount (an “additional amount”) necessary so that, after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.6), such Holder shall receive an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (y) Borrower shall make such deductions and (z) Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) The Borrower will pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law any current or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies that arise from any payment made hereunder or under any Transaction Document, or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any Transaction Document that are or would be applicable to the Holders (“Other Taxes”).

Except to the extent claimed by Borrower (in good faith) that such certificate contained manifest error, such indemnification shall be made within thirty (30) days after the date such Holder makes written demand therefor. The Borrower shall have the right to receive that portion of any refund of any Taxes and Other Taxes received by a Holder for which Borrower has previously paid any additional amount or indemnified such Holder and which leaves the Holder, after Borrower’s receipt thereof, in no better or worse financial position than if no such Taxes or Other Taxes had been imposed or additional amounts or indemnification paid to the Holder.

(c) Note Exchangeable for Different Denominations.

The Borrower shall keep the register open and available at all times during business hours for inspection of any Holder or its legal representatives.

Section 2.9 Maintenance of Register. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Notes are registered obligations and the right, title, and interest of each Lender and its assignees in and to such Notes shall be transferable only upon notation of

such transfer in the Register.

Section 8.10 Affiliate Transactions. Except with respect to any transaction set forth on Schedule 7.33 or 7.43, Borrower shall not, and Borrower shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, enter into or permit to exist any transaction (including the purchase, sale, lease or exchange of any property or the rendering of any service) with any Affiliate of Borrower or any Subsidiary, unless such transaction is on terms that are no less favorable to Borrower or such Subsidiary, as the case may be, than those that might be obtained at the time from a Person who is not an Affiliate and are fully disclosed in writing to Agent prior to consummation thereof.

Section 8.11 Insurance.

(a) The Credit Parties shall keep the Collateral properly housed and insured against loss or damage by fire, theft, explosion, sprinklers, collision (in the case of motor vehicles) and such other risks as are customarily insured against by Persons engaged in businesses similar to that of the Credit Parties, with such companies, in such amounts, with such deductibles and under policies in such form as shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Agent. Certificates of insurance or, if requested by the Agent, original (or certified) copies of such policies of insurance have been or shall be, no later than the Closing Date, delivered to the Agent, and shall contain an endorsement, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Agent, showing loss under such insurance policies payable to the Agent, for the benefit of the Holders. Borrower will use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that such endorsement, or an independent instrument furnished to the Agent, shall provide that the insurance company shall give the Agent at least thirty (30) days’ written notice before any such policy of insurance is altered or canceled and that no act, whether willful or negligent, or default of Borrower or any other Person shall affect the right of the Agent to recover under such policy of insurance in case of loss or damage. In addition, Borrower shall cause to be executed and delivered to the Agent no later than the Closing Date an assignment of proceeds of its business interruption insurance policies. Each Credit Party hereby directs all insurers under all policies of insurance to pay all proceeds payable thereunder directly to the Agent. Each Credit Party irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints the Agent (and all officers, employees or agents designated by the Agent) as such Person’s true and lawful attorney (and agent-in-fact) for the purpose of making,

settling and adjusting claims under such policies of insurance, endorsing the name of such Person on any check, draft, instrument or other item of payment for the proceeds of such policies of insurance and making all determinations and decisions with respect to such policies of insurance, provided however, that if no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, such Credit Party may make, settle and adjust claims involving less than $250,000 in the aggregate without the Agent’s consent.

(b) The Credit Parties shall maintain, at their expense, such public liability and third-party property damage insurance as is customary for Persons engaged in businesses similar to that of the Credit Parties with such companies and in such amounts with such deductibles and under policies in such form as shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Agent and certificates of insurance or, if requested by the Agent, original (or certified) copies of such policies have been or shall be, no later than the Closing Date, delivered to the Agent; each such policy shall contain an endorsement showing the Agent as additional insured thereunder and Borrower shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the endorsement provides that the insurance company shall give the Agent at least thirty (30) days’ written notice before any such policy shall be altered or canceled.

(c) If any Credit Party at any time or times hereafter shall fail to obtain or maintain any of the policies of insurance required above or to pay any premium relating thereto, then the Agent, without waiving or releasing any obligation or default by the Credit Parties hereunder, may (but shall be under no obligation to) obtain and maintain such policies of insurance and pay such premiums and take such other actions with respect thereto as the Agent reasonably deems advisable. Such insurance, if obtained by the Agent, may, but need not, protect each Credit Parties’ interests or pay any claim made by or against any Credit Party with respect to the Collateral. Such insurance may be more expensive than the cost of insurance the Credit Parties may be able to obtain on their own and may be cancelled only upon the Credit Parties providing evidence that they have obtained the insurance as required above. All sums disbursed by the Agent in connection with any such actions, including, without limitation, court costs, expenses, other charges relating thereto and reasonable attorneys’ fees, shall constitute part of the obligations due and owing hereunder, shall be payable on demand by the Credit Parties to the Agent and, until paid, shall bear interest at the highest rate applicable to Notes hereunder.

Section 8.12 Corporate Existence and Maintenance of Properties. Borrower shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, maintain and preserve (a) its existence and good standing in the jurisdiction of its organization and (b) its qualification to do business and good standing in each jurisdiction where the nature of its business makes such qualification necessary (other than such jurisdictions in which the failure to be so qualified or in good standing could not reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect). Borrower will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, maintain or cause to be maintained in good repair, working order and condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted, all material properties used or useful in the business of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and from time to time will make or cause to be made all appropriate repairs, renewals and replacements thereof.

Section 8.13 Non-circumvention. Each Credit Party hereby covenants and agrees that neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries will, by amendment of its articles or

certificate of incorporation, bylaws, or other governing documents, or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, scheme of arrangement, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, and will at all times in good faith carry out all of the provisions of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and take all action as may be reasonably required to protect the rights of the Holders of the Notes.

Section 8.14 Conduct of Business. The Credit Parties shall not conduct their businesses in violation of any law, ordinance or regulation of any governmental entity, except where such violations would not result, either individually or in the aggregate, in a Material Adverse Effect. The Credit Parties shall not engage in any line of business other than the businesses engaged in on the Closing Date and businesses incidental thereto.

Section 8.15 U.S. Real Property Holding Corporation. None of the Credit Parties shall become a U.S. real property holding corporation or permit or cause its shares to be U.S. real property interests, within the meaning of Section 897 of the Code.

Section 8.16 Compliance with Laws. The Borrower shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, (i) comply in all material respects with federal, state and other applicable securities laws, and (ii) comply in all material respects with the requirements of all other applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders of any Governmental Authority (including all Environmental Laws).

Section 8.17 Regulatory Consent. Borrower and RNK shall use their best efforts to obtain as soon as reasonably possible but in no event later than one hundred fifty (150) days after the Closing, the Regulatory Consent, and deliver evidence thereof to Agent.

Section 8.18 IPO. Borrower shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to consummate the IPO on or prior to January 31, 2010.

With respect to any Property acquired after the Issuance Date by any Credit Party as to which the Agent, for the benefit of the Holders, does not have a perfected Lien, such Credit Party shall promptly (i) execute and deliver to the Agent, for the benefit of the Holders, or its agent such amendments to the Security Documents or such other documents as the Agent, for the benefit of the Holders, deems necessary or advisable to grant to the Agent, for the benefit of the Holders, a security interest in such Property and (ii) take all other actions necessary or advisable to grant to the Agent, for the benefit of the Holders, a perfected first priority security interest in such Property, including, without limitation, the filing of Mortgages and UCC financing statements in such jurisdictions as may be required by the Security Documents or by law or as may be requested by the Agent.

Section 8.21 Audit Rights; Field Exams; Appraisals; Meetings.

(a) The Credit Parties shall, upon reasonable prior written notice (except during the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, when such written notice shall not

be required), subject to reasonable safety and security procedures, and at the Credit Parties’ sole cost and expense, permit the Agent and each Holder (or any of their respective designated representatives) up to two (2) times per year (except during the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, when no such limits shall exist) to visit and inspect any of the properties of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, to examine the books of account of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (and to make copies thereof and extracts therefrom), and to discuss the affairs, finances and accounts of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, and to be advised as to the same by their respective officers, and to conduct examinations and verifications (whether by internal commercial finance examiners or independent auditors), all at such reasonable times and intervals as the Agent and the Holders may reasonably request.

(c) The Credit Parties shall, at Agent’s request and upon reasonable prior written notice, and at the Credit Parties’ sole cost and expense, obtain an appraisal of the Collateral from an independent appraisal firm satisfactory to Agent.

Section 8.22 Pledge of Notes. Each of the Credit Parties acknowledges and agrees that the Notes may be pledged by a Holder in connection with a bona fide margin account or other loan or financing arrangement that is secured by the Notes; provided such pledge is made in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws. Such pledge of Notes shall not be deemed to be a transfer, sale or assignment of the Notes hereunder, and no Holder effecting such pledge of Notes shall be required to provide any Credit Party with any notice thereof or otherwise make any delivery to any Credit Party pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, including, without limitation, Section 6.4 hereof, unless required by applicable law. Each of the Credit Parties hereby agrees to execute and deliver such documentation as a pledgee of the Notes may reasonably request in connection with a pledge of the Notes to such pledgee by Holder.

Section 8.23 Additional Issuances of Securities. None of the Borrower or any Subsidiary shall, directly or indirectly, offer, sell, grant any option to purchase, or otherwise dispose of (or announce any offer, sale, grant or any option to purchase or other disposition of) any of its debt securities or Equity Interests, including without limitation any debt, preferred stock or other instrument or security that may be, at any time during its life, and under any circumstance, convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Equity Interests, convertible securities or debt securities (any such offer, sale, grant, disposition or announcement

Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 8.23 shall prevent the issuance of Common Stock in connection with the IPO, provided that the IPO is consummated after (or concurrently with) the payment in full, in cash of all Obligations hereunder.

ARTICLE 9

CROSS GUARANTY

Section 9.1 Cross-Guaranty. Each Guarantor, jointly and severally, hereby absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to the Holders and their respective successors and assigns the full and prompt payment (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) and performance of, all Obligations. Each Guarantor agrees that its guaranty obligation hereunder is a continuing guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection, that its obligations under this ARTICLE 9 shall not be discharged until payment and performance, in full, of the obligations under the Transaction Documents has occurred and all commitments (if any) to lend hereunder have been terminated, and that its obligations under this ARTICLE 9 shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of, and unaffected by:

(a) the genuineness, validity, regularity, enforceability or any future amendment of, or change in, this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any other agreement, document or instrument to which any Credit Party is or may become a party;

(b) the absence of any action to enforce this Agreement (including this ARTICLE 9) or any other Transaction Document or the waiver or consent by the Holders with respect to any of the provisions thereof;

(d) any other action or circumstances that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor.

Each Guarantor shall be regarded, and shall be in the same position, as principal debtor with respect to the obligations guaranteed hereunder.

Section 9.2 Waivers by Guarantors. Each Guarantor expressly waives all rights it may have now or in the future under any statute, or at common law, or at law or in equity, or otherwise, to compel the Holders to marshal assets or to proceed in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereunder against any other Credit Party or Subsidiary, any other party or against any security for the payment and performance of the obligations under the Transaction Documents before proceeding against, or as a condition to proceeding against, such Guarantor. It is agreed among each Guarantor that the foregoing waivers are of the essence of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and that, but for the provisions of this ARTICLE 9 and such waivers, the Holders would decline to enter into this Agreement.

Section 9.3 Benefit of Guaranty. Each Guarantor agrees that the provisions of this ARTICLE 9 are for the benefit of the Holders and their respective successors, transferees, endorsees and assigns, and nothing herein contained shall impair, as between any other Credit Party and the Holders, the obligations of such other Credit Party under the Transaction Documents.

Section 9.4 Waiver of Subrogation, Etc. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any other Transaction Document, and except as set forth in Section 9.7, each Guarantor hereby expressly and irrevocably waives any and all rights at law or in equity to subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification or set off and any and all defenses available to a surety, guarantor or accommodation co-obligor. Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that this waiver is intended to benefit the Holders and shall not limit or otherwise affect such Guarantor’s liability hereunder or the enforceability of this ARTICLE 9, and that the Holders and their respective successors and assigns are intended third party beneficiaries of the waivers and agreements set forth in this Section 9.4.

Section 9.5 Election of Remedies. If the Holders may, under applicable law, proceed to realize their benefits under any of the Transaction Documents, the Agent or any of the Holders may, at its sole option, determine which of its remedies or rights it may pursue without affecting any of its rights and remedies under this ARTICLE 9. If, in the exercise of any of its rights and remedies, any of the Holders shall forfeit any of its rights or remedies, including its right to enter a deficiency judgment against any Credit Party or any other Person, whether because of any applicable laws pertaining to “election of remedies” or the like, each Credit Party hereby consents to such action by such Holders and waives any claim based upon such action, even if such action by such Holders shall result in a full or partial loss of any rights of subrogation that any Credit Party might otherwise have had but for such action by such Holders. Any election of remedies that results in the denial or impairment of the right of the Holders to seek a deficiency judgment against any Credit Party shall not impair any other Credit Party’s obligation to pay the full amount of the obligations under the Transaction Documents.

Section 9.6 Limitation. Notwithstanding any provision herein contained to the contrary, each Guarantor’s liability under this ARTICLE 9 (which liability is in any event in addition to amounts for which such Borrower is primarily liable under the Transaction Documents) shall be limited to an amount not to exceed as of any date of determination the greater of:

(a) the net amount of all amounts advanced to such Guarantor under this Agreement or otherwise transferred to, or for the benefit of, such Guarantor (including any interest and fees and other charges); and

(b) the amount that could be claimed by the Holders from such Guarantor under this ARTICLE 9 without rendering such claim voidable or avoidable under Section 548 of Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or similar statute or common law after taking into account, among other things, such Guarantor’s right of contribution and indemnification from each other Credit Party under Section 9.7.

(a) To the extent that any Guarantor shall make a payment under this ARTICLE 9 of all or any of the obligations under the Transaction Documents (other than financial accommodations made to that Guarantor for which it is primarily liable) (a “Guarantor Payment”) that, taking into account all other Guarantor Payments then previously or concurrently made by any other Guarantor, exceeds the amount that such Guarantor would otherwise have paid if each Guarantor had paid the aggregate obligations under the Transaction Documents satisfied by such Guarantor Payment in the same proportion that such Guarantor’s “Allocable Amount” (as defined below) (as determined immediately prior to such Guarantor Payment) bore to the aggregate Allocable Amounts of each of the Guarantor as determined immediately prior to the making of such Guarantor Payment, then, following indefeasible payment in full in cash of the obligations under the Transaction Documents and termination of the Transaction Documents (including all commitments (if any) to lend hereunder), such Guarantor shall be entitled to receive contribution and indemnification payments from, and be reimbursed by, each other Guarantor for the amount of such excess, pro rata based upon their respective Allocable Amounts in effect immediately prior to such Guarantor Payment.

(b) As of any date of determination, the “Allocable Amount” of any Guarantor shall be equal to the maximum amount of the claim that could then be recovered from such Guarantor under this ARTICLE 9 without rendering such claim voidable or avoidable under Section 548 of Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or similar statute or common law.

(c) This Section 9.7 is intended only to define the relative rights of Guarantor and nothing set forth in this Section 9.7 is intended to or shall impair the obligations of Credit Parties, jointly and severally, to pay any amounts as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including Section 9.1. Nothing contained in this Section 9.7 shall limit the liability of any Credit Party to pay the financial

accommodations made directly or indirectly to that Credit Party and accrued interest, fees and expenses with respect thereto for which such Credit Party shall be primarily liable.

(d) The parties hereto acknowledge that the rights of contribution and indemnification hereunder shall constitute assets of the Guarantor to which such contribution and indemnification is owing.

(e) The rights of the indemnifying Guarantor against other Guarantor under this Section 9.7 shall be exercisable upon the full and indefeasible payment of the obligations under the Transaction Documents and the termination of the Transaction Documents.

Section 9.8 Liability Cumulative. The liability of each Guarantor under this ARTICLE 9 is in addition to and shall be cumulative with all liabilities of each other Credit Party to the Holders under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which such Credit Party is a party or in respect of any obligations under the Transaction Documents or obligation of the other Credit Party, without any limitation as to amount, unless the instrument or agreement evidencing or creating such other liability specifically provides to the contrary.

Section 9.9 Stay of Acceleration. If acceleration of the time for payment of any amount payable by the Credit Parties under this Agreement is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any of the Credit Parties, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of this Agreement shall nonetheless be payable jointly and severally by the Credit Parties hereunder forthwith on demand by the Required Holders.

Section 9.10 Benefit to Borrower. All of the Credit Parties and their Subsidiaries are engaged in related businesses and integrated to such an extent that the financial strength and flexibility of each such Person has a direct impact on the success of each other Person. Each Credit Party and each Subsidiary will derive substantial direct and indirect benefit from the purchase and sale of the Notes hereunder.

ARTICLE 10

Section 10.2 Acceleration Right.

(a) Promptly after the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Borrower shall deliver written notice thereof via email, facsimile and overnight courier (an “Event of Default Notice”) to the Agent and the Holders. At any time after the earlier of the Agent’s and the Holders’ receipt of an Event of Default Notice and the Agent and the Holders becoming aware of an Event of Default which has not been cured or waived, the Required Holders may require the Borrower to redeem all or any portion of the Notes (an “Event of Default Redemption”) by delivering written notice thereof (the “Event of Default Redemption Notice”) to the Borrower,

which Event of Default Redemption Notice shall indicate the portion of the Notes that the Required Holders are requiring the Borrower to redeem; provided, that upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Section 10.1(c) or Section 10.1(d), the Notes, in whole, shall automatically, and without any action on behalf of the Agent or any Holder, be redeemed by the Borrower. All Notes subject to redemption by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 10.2 shall be redeemed by the Borrower at a price equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest and accrued and unpaid Late Charges, Yield Maintenance Premium and all other amounts due under the Transaction Documents (the “Event of Default Redemption Price”).

(b) In the case of an Event of Default Redemption, the Borrower shall deliver the applicable Event of Default Redemption Price to the Agent within three (3) Business Days after the Borrower’s receipt of the Event of Default Redemption Notice. In the case of an Event of Default Redemption of less than all of the principal of the Notes, the Borrower shall promptly cause to be issued and delivered to the Holders new Notes (in accordance with Section 2.7) representing the outstanding principal which has not been redeemed.

Section 10.3 Consultation Rights. Without in any way limiting any remedy that the Holders may have, at law or in equity, under any Transaction Document (including under the foregoing provisions of this ARTICLE 10) or otherwise, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, upon the request of the Agent or the Required Holders, the Credit Parties shall hire or otherwise retain a consultant, advisor or similar Person acceptable to the Agent to advise the Credit Parties with respect to their business and operations.

Section 10.4 Other Remedies. The remedies provided herein and in the Notes shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under any of the other Transaction Documents, at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), and nothing herein shall limit the Agent’s or any Holder’s right to pursue actual and consequential damages for any failure by the Credit Parties to comply with the terms of this Agreement, the Notes and the other Transaction Documents. Amounts set forth or provided for herein and in the Notes with respect to payments and the like (and the computation thereof) shall be the amounts to be received by the Holders and shall not, except as expressly provided herein, be subject to any other obligation of the Credit Parties (or the performance thereof). Each of the Credit Parties acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder and under the Notes and the other Transaction Documents will cause irreparable harm to the Holders and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate. The Credit Parties therefore agree that, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, the Holders shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an injunction restraining any breach, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.

ARTICLE 11

TERMINATION

In the event that the Closing shall not have occurred with respect to a Lender on or before five (5) Business Days from the date hereof due to the Borrower’s or such Lender’s

failure to satisfy the conditions set forth in Sections 4.1 and 5.1 (and the non-breaching party’s failure to waive such unsatisfied condition(s)), the non-breaching party shall have the option to terminate this Agreement with respect to such breaching party at the close of business on such date without liability of any party to any other party; provided, however, if this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this ARTICLE 11, the Credit Parties shall remain obligated to reimburse the Lenders for the expenses described in Section 8.25 above.

ARTICLE 12

AGENCY PROVISIONS

Section 12.1 Appointment. Each of the Holders hereby irrevocably designates and appoints Agent as the administrative agent and collateral agent of such Holder (or the Holders represented by it) under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents for the term hereof (and Agent hereby accepts such appointment), and each such Holder irrevocably authorizes Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, the Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein and therein, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or otherwise exist against the Agent. Any reference to the Agent in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents shall be deemed to refer to the Agent solely in its capacity as Agent and not in its capacity, if any, as a Holder. Each Lender hereby consents and agrees to the execution by Agent on behalf of such Lender of the Affiliate Subordination Agreement and further agrees to be bound by the terms and provisions thereof

Section 12.2 Delegation of Duties. The Agent may execute any of its respective duties under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by the Agent with reasonable care.

Section 12.3 Exculpatory Provisions. Neither the Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact, Subsidiaries or Affiliates shall be (i) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection with this Agreement (except for actions occasioned by its or such Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct), or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Holders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or for any failure of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Agent shall not be under any obligation to

any Holder to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or of any other Transaction Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries.

Section 12.4 Reliance by Agent. The Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Agent. The Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless the Agent shall have actual notice of any transferee. The Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Holders (or, when expressly required hereby, all the Holders) as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Holders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Holders (or, when expressly required hereby, all the Holders), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Holders and all future Holders.

Section 12.5 Notices of Default. The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Event of Default hereunder or under any other Transaction Document unless it has received notice of such Event of Default in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof or notice from a Holder or the Borrower referring to this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents describing such Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” In the event that the Agent receives such a notice, it shall promptly give notice thereof to the Holders. The Agent shall take such action with respect to such Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Holders; provided that unless and until the Agent shall have received such directions, the Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Holders, except to the extent that other provisions of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents expressly require that any such action be taken or not be taken only with the consent and authorization or upon the request of the Holders or Required Holders, as applicable.

Section 12.6 Non-Reliance on the Agent and Other Holders. Each of the Holders expressly acknowledges that neither the Agent nor any of its respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact, Subsidiaries or Affiliates has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Agent to any Holder. Each of the Holders represents that it has made and will continue to make, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Holder, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement

and the other Transaction Documents, and such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Holders by the Agent hereunder or under the other Transaction Documents, the Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Holder with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries which may come into the possession of the Agent or any of its respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact, Subsidiaries or Affiliates.

Section 12.7 Indemnification. Each of the Holders hereby agrees to indemnify the Agent in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by the Credit Parties and without limiting the obligation of the Credit Parties to do so), ratably according to the respective amounts of their Notes, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time (including, without limitation, at any time following the payment of the Notes) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents, or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Holder shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements to the extent they result from the Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section 12.7 shall survive the payment of the Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder and the termination of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

Section 12.8 The Agent in Its Individual Capacity. The Agent and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries as though the Agent were not an Agent hereunder. With respect to any Note issued to it, the Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents as any Holder and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the term “Holders” shall include the Agent in its individual capacity.

Section 12.9 Resignation of the Agent; Successor Agent. The Agent may resign as Agent at any time by giving thirty (30) days advance written notice thereof to the Holders and the Borrower and, thereafter, the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder; provided however, no such notice shall be required and Agent may resign immediately in the event that any party to any Affiliate Subordination Agreement exercises its purchase option set forth therein. Upon any such resignation, the Required Holders shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent. If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Holders, then the Agent may, on behalf of the Holders, appoint a successor Agent reasonably acceptable to the Borrower (so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing). Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent. After any retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Section 12.9 shall continue in effect for its benefit in

respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Agent. If no successor has accepted appointment as Agent by the date which is thirty (30) days following a retiring Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Required Holders shall perform all of the duties of the Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Holders appoint a successor agent as provided for above.

Section 12.10 Reimbursement by Holders. To the extent that the Borrower for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under Section 13.1 or Section 13.12 to be paid by it to the Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Holder severally agrees to pay to the Agent (or any such sub-agent) or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Holder’s applicable percentage thereof (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Agent (or any such sub-agent) in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Agent (or any such sub-agent) in connection with such capacity. For the purposes of this Section 12.10, the “applicable percentage” of a Holder shall be the percentage of the total aggregate principal amount of the Notes represented by the Notes held by such Holder at such time.

ARTICLE 13

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 13.1 Payment of Expenses. The Borrower shall reimburse Agent and the Holders on demand for all reasonable costs and expenses, including, without limitation, legal expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees (whether for internal or outside counsel), incurred by Agent and the Holders in connection with the (i) documentation and consummation of the transactions contemplated hereunder and any other transactions between the Borrower and Agent and the Holders, including, without limitation, UCC and other public record searches and filings, overnight courier or other express or messenger delivery, appraisal costs, surveys, title insurance and environmental audit or review (including due diligence review) costs; (ii) collection, protection or enforcement of any rights in or to the Collateral; (iii) collection of any Obligations; (iv) administration and enforcement of Agent’s and any Holder’s rights under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document (including, without limitation, any costs and expenses of any third party provider engaged by Agent or the Holders for such purposes); (v) costs associated with any refinancing or restructuring of the Notes whether in the nature of a “work-out,” in any insolvency or bankruptcy proceeding or otherwise, and whether or not consummated; (vi) all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Agent and the Holders and their assignees (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) in connection with the assignment, transfers or syndication of the Notes; and (vii) from and against all liability for any intangibles, documentary, stamp or other similar taxes, fees and excises, if any, including any interest and penalties, and any finder’s or brokerage fees, commissions and expenses (other than any fees, commissions or expenses of finders or brokers engaged by the Holders), that may be payable in connection with the Notes contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. The Borrower shall also pay all normal service charges with respect to all accounts maintained by the Borrower

with the Holders and any additional services requested by Borrower from the Holders. All such costs, expenses and charges shall constitute Obligations hereunder, shall be payable by the Borrower to the Holders on demand, and, until paid, shall bear interest at the highest rate then applicable to Notes hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, if (a) any Note is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection or enforcement or is collected or enforced through any legal proceeding or any Holder otherwise takes action to collect amounts due under such Note or to enforce the provisions of such Note or (b) there occurs any bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership of any Credit Party or other proceedings affecting creditors’ rights and involving a claim under such Note, then the Borrower shall pay the costs incurred by such Holder for such collection, enforcement or action or in connection with such bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership or other proceeding, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements (including such fees and disbursements related to seeking relief from any stay, automatic or otherwise, in effect under any Bankruptcy Law).

Section 13.2 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Jury Trial. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of Illinois, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Illinois or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of Illinois. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in Chicago, Illinois, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

Section 13.3 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more identical counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to each other party; provided that a facsimile signature shall be considered due execution and shall be binding upon the signatory thereto with the same force and effect as if the signature were an original, not a facsimile signature.

Section 13.4 Headings. The headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference and shall not form part of, or affect the interpretation of, this Agreement.

Section 13.5 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the

validity or enforceability of the remainder of this Agreement in that jurisdiction or the validity or enforceability of any provision of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction.

Section 13.6 Entire Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents supersede all other prior oral or written agreements between the Lenders, the Borrower, their Affiliates and Persons acting on their behalf with respect to the matters discussed herein and therein, and this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and the instruments referenced herein and therein contain the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the matters covered herein and therein and, except as specifically set forth herein or therein, none of the Credit Parties or any Lender makes any representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking with respect to such matters. No provision of this Agreement, the Notes or any of the other Transaction Documents may be amended or waived other than by an instrument in writing signed by the Borrower, the Agent and the Required Holders (or by the Agent with the consent of the Required Holders) (provided, that no amendment or waiver hereof shall increase any Lender’s obligations hereunder or materially adversely affect the rights of such Lender hereunder, in either case, without such Lender’s written consent; and provided, further, no amendment or waiver shall extend the due date of any payment hereunder or under the Notes, decrease the amount of interest or other compensation payable hereunder or under the Notes, or modify Section 8.1 without the consent of the Holders of all Notes), and any amendment or waiver to this Agreement made in conformity with the provisions of this Section 13.6 shall be binding on all Lenders and holders of Securities, as applicable. No such amendment or waiver shall be effective to the extent that it applies to less than all of the holders of the applicable Securities then outstanding. No consideration shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of the Transaction Documents unless the same consideration also is offered to all of the parties to the Transaction Documents or Holders of Notes, as the case may be. None of the Credit Parties has, directly or indirectly, made any agreements with any Lenders relating to the terms or conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents except as set forth in the Transaction Documents. Without limiting the foregoing, each of the Credit Parties confirms that, except as set forth in this Agreement, no Lender has made any commitment or promise or has any other obligation to provide any financing to the Credit Parties or otherwise.

Any notices, consents, waivers or other communications required or permitted to be given under the terms of this Agreement must be in writing and will be deemed to have been delivered: (i) upon receipt, when delivered personally; (ii) upon receipt, when sent by facsimile (provided, confirmation of transmission is mechanically or electronically generated and kept on file by the sending party); or (iii) one Business Day after deposit with an overnight courier service, in each case properly addressed to the party to receive the same.

Section 13.8 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective permitted successors and assigns, including any purchasers of the Notes or the Shares. None of the Credit Parties shall assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each of the Holders of the Notes, including by way of a Change of Control. A Lender may assign some or all of its rights and obligations hereunder in connection with transfer of any of its Notes without the consent of the Credit Parties, in which event such assignee shall be deemed to be the Lender hereunder with respect to such assigned rights and obligations, and the Credit Parties shall use their best efforts to ensure that such transferee is registered as a Holder and that any Liens on the Collateral shall be for the benefit of such Holder (as well as the other Holders of Notes).

Section 13.9 No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person.

Section 13.10 Survival. Unless this Agreement is terminated under ARTICLE 11, the representations, warranties, agreements and covenants of the Credit Parties and the Lenders contained in the Transaction Documents shall survive the Closing. Each Lender shall be responsible only for its own representations, warranties, agreements and covenants hereunder.

Section 13.11 Further Assurances. Each Credit Party shall do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents, as any other party may reasonably request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 13.12 Indemnification. In consideration of each Lender’s execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents and acquiring the Notes thereunder and in addition to all of the Credit Parties’ other obligations under the Transaction Documents, the Credit Parties shall jointly and severally defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless each Lender and each other Holder of any Notes and all of their stockholders, partners, members, officers, directors, employees and direct or indirect investors and any of the foregoing Persons’ agents or other representatives (including, without limitation, those retained in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, claims, losses, costs, penalties, fees, liabilities and damages, and expenses in connection therewith (irrespective of whether any such Indemnitee is a party to the action for which indemnification hereunder is sought), and including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements (the “Indemnified Liabilities”), incurred by any Indemnitee as a result of, or

arising out of, or relating to (a) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made by any Credit Party in this Agreement or any other Transaction Documents or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby, (b) any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of any Credit Party contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Documents or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby, (c) the present or former status of any Credit Party as a U.S. real property holding corporation for federal income tax purposes within the meaning of Section 897 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, if applicable, or (d) any cause of action, suit or claim brought or made against such Indemnitee by a third party (including for these purposes a derivative action brought on behalf of any Credit Party) and arising out of or resulting from (i) the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of this Agreement or any other Transaction Documents or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any transaction financed or to be financed in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, with the proceeds of the issuance of the Notes, or (iii) the status of such Lender or Holder of the Notes as a lender to the Borrower pursuant to the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. To the extent that the foregoing undertakings by the Credit Parties may be unenforceable for any reason, the Credit Parties shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law. No Credit Party shall assert, and each waives, any claim against the Indemnitees on any theory of liability for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages arising out of, in connection with or as a result of, this Agreement of any of the other Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. The agreements in this Section 13.12 shall survive the payment of the Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder and the termination of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

Section 13.13 No Strict Construction. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rules of strict construction will be applied against any party.

Section 13.14 Waiver. No failure or delay on the part of any Holder in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder or any of the other Transaction Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privilege.

Section 13.15 Payment Set Aside. To the extent that any of the Credit Parties makes a payment or payments to the Lenders hereunder or pursuant to any of the other Transaction Documents or the Lenders enforce or exercise their rights hereunder or thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to any of the Credit Parties, a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any law (including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, foreign, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), then to the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

Section 13.16 Independent Nature of Lenders’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Lender under any Transaction Document are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Lender, and no Lender shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Lender under any Transaction Document. Nothing contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Lender pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Lenders as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Lenders are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents and each of the Credit Parties acknowledges that the Lenders are not acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. Each Lender confirms that it has independently participated in the negotiation of the transactions contemplated hereby with the advice of its own counsel and advisors. Each Lender shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of any other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Lender to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.
