No Revolving Lender shall have any obligation to make, and the Borrowers shall have no right to obtain or to permit to remain outstanding, any Advance or Advances that would cause such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the total outstanding Advances to exceed its separate Revolving Commitment.

(ii) At the request of Agent on behalf of any Revolving Lender, the Borrowers shall jointly and severally execute and deliver to Agent for delivery to such Revolving Lender a note to evidence the Revolving Loans. The note shall be in the principal amount of the Revolving Commitment of such Revolving Lender, substantially in the form of Exhibit A (the “Revolving Note”).

(iii) The aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loan advanced to each Borrower shall be the primary obligation of that Borrower (but shall also be guaranteed, jointly and severally, by all other Borrowers pursuant to Section 8.18).

(b) Term Loan. On the Original Closing Date, each Term Loan Lender (as defined in the Original Credit Agreement on such date), severally and not jointly, made to Borrowers, jointly and severally, in one draw, its Pro Rata Share (as defined in the Original Credit Agreement) of a term loan in an aggregate amount of $35,000,000 (the “Term Loan”). The aggregate principal amount of Term Loan outstanding on the Effective Date is $34,708,333.34.

(i) The Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall repay the Term Loan through periodic payments as indicated in Section 2.5(b) below.

(ii) The final installment of the Term Loan shall in all events equal the entire remaining principal balance of the Term Loan and shall be due and payable in full on the Termination Date. Amounts borrowed under this Section 2.1(b) and repaid may not be reborrowed.

(iii) At the request of Agent on behalf of any Term Loan Lender, the Borrowers shall jointly and severally execute and deliver to Agent for delivery to such Term Loan Lender a promissory note substantially in the form of Exhibit B (“Term Note”), to evidence the Term Loan in the amount of such Term Loan Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Term Loan. Each Term Note shall represent the joint and several obligation of each Borrower to pay Term Loan, together with interest thereon.

(iv) The aggregate principal amount of Term Loan advanced to each Borrower shall be the primary obligation of that Borrower (but shall also be guaranteed, jointly and severally, by all other Borrowers pursuant to Section 8.18).

Each request for an Advance hereunder shall be irrevocable and shall be deemed a representation by each Borrower that on the requested Advance Date and after giving effect to the requested Advance the applicable conditions specified in Article III have been and will be satisfied, except for those conditions waived in writing by the Required Revolving Lenders with respect to such request. Each request for an Advance hereunder shall specify (i) the requested Advance Date and (ii) the amount of the Advance to be made on such date which shall be in a minimum amount of $100,000 or, if more, integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof. The Funding Agent may rely on any telephone request by a Senior Officer of the Borrowers’ Agent for an Advance hereunder which it believes in good faith to be genuine (provided that the Borrowers’ Agent shall also be required to promptly confirm to the Funding Agent each telephone request in writing, with a copy to the Agent); and each Borrower hereby waives the right to dispute the Funding Agent’s record of the terms of such telephone request. Unless the Required Revolving Lenders or the Agent determine that any applicable condition specified in Article III has not been satisfied, the Funding Agent will make available to the Borrowers’ Agent by remittance to the deposit account designated by the Borrowers’ Agent from time to time in writing to the Funding Agent, provided that such deposit account is subject to a security interest in favor of the Agent, for the benefit of the Beneficiaries, (the “Remittance Account”) in Immediately Available Funds not later than 4:00 p.m. (New York time) on the requested Advance Date the amount of the requested Advance.

The Borrowers may prepay Advances or the Term Loan, in whole or in part, at any time, subject to the payment of the fees specified in Section 2.10, if applicable, upon prior written notice given by Borrowers’ Agent and received by Funding Agent, with a copy to Agent, not later than 11 a.m. (New York time) two Business Days prior to the date of the prepayment. Any such prepayment of the Term Loan and any prepayments in full of all Advances and termination of the Revolving Commitment shall be made to the Funding Agent, for the ratable benefit of the applicable Lenders, and must be accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest on the amount prepaid. Each partial prepayment on the Term Loan shall be in a minimum amount of $100,000 or an integral multiple thereof. Amounts paid (unless following an acceleration or upon termination of the Revolving Commitment in whole) or prepaid on the Revolving Loan under this subsection (d) may be reborrowed upon the terms and subject to the conditions and limitations of this Agreement. Amounts prepaid on the Term Loan may not be reborrowed.

(e) Application of Proceeds. With respect to any prepayments made by any Borrower pursuant to Section 2.6(d), the Borrowers’ Agent may elect to have any such prepayment applied to the Advances or the Term Loan. With respect to any prepayments made by any Borrower pursuant to Section 2.6(c)(i), such prepayments shall be applied to reduce the outstanding principal balance of the Advances (without any reduction of the Revolving Commitment Amount). With respect to any prepayments made by any Borrower pursuant to Section 2.6(a) or Section 2.6(b), such prepayments shall first be applied in payment of the Term Loan, and, in each instance, against remaining payments thereon in the inverse order of maturity (starting with the balloon payment thereon due on the Termination Date) and, at any time after Term Loan shall have been prepaid in full, such prepayments shall, second, be applied to reduce the outstanding principal balance of the Advances if applicable (without any reduction of the Revolving Commitment Amount).

Section 2.7 Mandatory Prepayment of Term Loan from Excess Cash Flow. Within one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of each fiscal year commencing with the fiscal year

ended June 30, 2009, Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall prepay the outstanding principal of the Term Loan in an amount equal to twenty-five percent (25%) of the Consolidated Excess Cash Flow for such fiscal year, which prepayment shall be made to Funding Agent, for the ratable benefit of Lenders, and shall be applied in payment of the Term Loan, and, in each instance, against remaining payments thereon in the inverse order of maturity (starting with the balloon payment thereon due on the Termination Date) until the Term Loan shall have been prepaid in full. The calculation shall be based on the consolidated audited Financial Statements for the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries. Such prepaid amounts may not be reborrowed.

Section 2.8 Optional Reduction of Revolving Commitment Amount or Termination of Revolving Commitment. The Borrowers may, at any time, upon not less than three (3) Business Days prior written notice from the Borrowers’ Agent to the Funding Agent, with a copy to the Agent, reduce the Revolving Commitment Amount with any such reduction in a minimum amount of $500,000, or, if more, in integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof; provided, however, that the Borrowers may not at any time reduce the Revolving Commitment Amount below the unpaid principal balance of the Revolving Loan. The Borrowers’ Agent may, at any time, upon not less than three (3) Business Days prior written notice from the Borrowers’ Agent to the Funding Agent, with a copy to the Agent, terminate the Revolving Commitment in its entirety. Upon termination of the Revolving Commitment pursuant to this Section, the Borrowers shall pay to the Funding Agent the full amount of all outstanding Advances, all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, all unpaid Revolving Commitment Fees accrued to the date of such termination, all Prepayment Fees, if applicable, and all other unpaid Obligations of the Borrowers to the Agent, Funding Agent and Lenders hereunder.

Section 2.9 Revolving Commitment Fee. From the Original Closing Date until all Advances have been paid in full and the Revolving Commitments have expired or been terminated, the Borrowers shall pay, without duplication of any such fee paid pursuant to the Original Credit Agreement, to the Funding Agent for the account of the Revolving Lenders fees (the “Revolving Commitment Fees”) in an amount determined by applying a rate of 0.30% per annum to the average daily Unused Revolving Commitment during the period for which such fee is due. Such Revolving Commitment Fees are payable in arrears monthly on the first Business Day of each month in respect of the immediately preceding month and on the Termination Date.

Section 2.10 Prepayment Fee. If any Borrower pays after acceleration or prepays all or any portion of the Term Loan or prepays the Revolving Loan and terminates or reduces the Revolving Commitment, whether voluntarily or involuntarily and whether before or after acceleration of the Obligations or if any of the Revolving Commitments are terminated as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default or otherwise, Borrower shall pay to Funding Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, as liquidated damages and compensation for the costs of being prepared to make funds available hereunder a fee (the “Prepayment Fee”) in an amount equal to the Applicable Percentage (as defined below) multiplied by the sum of (i) the principal amount of the Term Loan paid after acceleration or prepaid, and (ii) the amount of the Revolving Commitment terminated or reduced. As used herein, the term “Applicable Percentage” shall mean (w) two percent (2.0%), in the case of a prepayment on or prior to the first anniversary of the Original Closing Date, (x) one and a half percent (1.5%), in the case of a prepayment after the first anniversary of the Original Closing Date but prior to the second anniversary thereof, (y) one percent (1.0%), in the case of a prepayment after the second anniversary of the Original

Closing Date but prior to the third anniversary thereof and (z) thereafter no prepayment fee shall be payable. The Credit Parties agree that the Applicable Percentages are a reasonable calculation of Lenders’ lost profits in view of the difficulties and impracticality of determining actual damages resulting from an early termination of the Revolving Commitments and the related loan facility provided hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Prepayment Fee shall be payable by Borrowers upon a repayment made pursuant to Section 2.5(b), a mandatory prepayment made pursuant to Section 2.6(a), 2.6(b), 2.6(c)(i) or 2.7 or a repayment of Advances without a simultaneous reduction in or termination of the Revolving Commitment, provided that Borrowers do not terminate the Revolving Commitment upon any such prepayment and, in the case of prepayments made pursuant Section 2.6(a), the transaction giving rise to the applicable prepayment is expressly permitted under Section 6.2.

Section 2.11 Fee Letter. Borrowers shall pay to Chatham, for the account of Chatham, the fees specified in that certain fee and syndication letter dated on or about the Original Closing Date among Borrowers and Chatham (the “Chatham Fee Letter”), at the times specified for payment therein; it being acknowledged by Chatham that those fees that were payable pursuant thereto on the Original Closing Date have been paid by the Borrowers on the Original Closing Date.

Funds received after such time shall be deemed to have been received on the next Business Day. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder 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, in the case of a payment of principal, shall be included in the computation of any interest on such principal payment.

(b) All other payments and other obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents payable to the Agent and/or Lenders shall be made without setoff or counterclaim in Immediately Available Funds not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on the dates called for under this Agreement to the Agent for the benefit of the Agent, Funding Agent and/or Lenders, as applicable, in accordance with the wire instructions set forth on the attached Exhibit K-2 or to such other account as the Agent may from time to time designate in writing.

Whenever any payment to be made hereunder 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, in the case of a payment of principal, shall be included in the computation of any interest on such principal payment.

The proceeds of the Advances shall be used for refinancing the Borrower’s existing indebtedness, funding the payment of fees and expenses hereunder, funding the payment of expenses relating to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ Acquisition and general business purposes in a manner not in conflict with any of the Borrowers’ covenants in this Agreement, but excluding funding of Permitted Acquisitions.

Section 2.15 Adjustment of NCV. Until notice of a change has been delivered to Borrowers’ Agent by the Agent, the applicable NCV of Eligible Receivables by Obligor Type shall be as set forth in Exhibit H. The Agent has the right, in its reasonable credit judgment, to adjust any applicable NCV Percentage at any time, based upon the criteria, and in accordance with the Agent’s methodology of calculating such NCV, as set forth in Exhibit H.

Each of the Credit Parties and Subsidiaries is duly qualified and in good standing as a foreign corporation (or other organization) in each jurisdiction in which the character of the properties owned, leased or operated by it or the business conducted by it makes such qualification necessary and the failure so to qualify would reasonably be expected to result in or be a Material Adverse Occurrence.

Section 4.2 Authorization and Validity. The execution, delivery and performance by each Credit Party of the Loan Documents to which it is a party have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action by such Credit Party. This Agreement constitutes, and the Notes and other Loan Documents when executed will constitute, the legal, valid and binding obligations of each Credit Party executing the same, enforceable against each Borrower in accordance with their respective terms, subject to limitations as to enforceability which might result from bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium and other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to limitations on the availability of equitable remedies.

Section 4.3 No Conflict; No Default. The execution, delivery and performance by each Credit Party of the Loan Documents will not (a) violate any provision of any law, statute, rule or regulation or any order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award of any court, governmental agency or arbitrator presently in effect having applicability to such Borrower, (b) violate or contravene any provision of the Articles or Certificates of Incorporation, bylaws or partnership agreement of such Credit Party, or (c) result in a breach of or constitute a default under any indenture, loan or credit agreement or any other agreement, lease or instrument to which such Credit Party is a party or by which it or any of its properties may be bound or result in the creation of any Lien thereunder.

Section 4.5 Financial Statements and Condition.

(a) All annual and quarterly financial statements delivered by the Credit Parties to the Agent or any Lender (including, without limitation, all such financial statements delivered in connection with the Agent’s or Lenders’ due diligence and underwriting with respect to this transaction), have been prepared in accordance with GAAP on a consistent basis (except for the absence of footnotes and subject to year-end audit adjustments as to the interim statements) and fairly present the financial condition of the Credit Parties and their Subsidiaries as at such dates and the results of their operations and changes in financial position for the respective periods then ended. All monthly financial statements delivered by the Credit Parties to the Agent or any Lender (including, without limitation, all such financial statements delivered in connection with the Agent’s or Lenders’ due diligence and underwriting with respect to this transaction) fairly present the financial condition of the Credit Parties and their Subsidiaries as at such dates and the results of their operations for the respective periods then ended. As of the dates of such financial statements, no Credit Party or any Subsidiary had any material obligation, contingent liability, liability for taxes or long-term lease obligation which is not reflected in such financial statements or in the notes thereto. With respect to the Credit Parties, other than the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ Entity, since June 30, 2007, there has been no Material Adverse Occurrence and with respect to the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ Entity, since December 31, 2007, there has been no Material Adverse Occurrence.

(b) All financial projections and certificates delivered by the Credit Parties to the Agent or any Lender (including, without limitation, all such financial information delivered in connection with the Agent’s or Lenders’ due diligence and underwriting with respect to this transaction) have been prepared in good faith, based on assumptions which, in the reasonable opinion of the Credit Parties, were reasonable when made and reflect, in the reasonable opinion of the Credit Parties, reasonable estimates of the results of operation and other information projected therein.

Section 4.7 Conduct of Business; Permits.

The Credit Parties have all necessary permits, licenses, agreements, accreditations, certifications, contracts and governmental consents necessary to operate and conduct their business as it is presently being conducted, subject to minor exceptions and deficiencies which would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Occurrence.

There does not exist any violation by any Credit Party or any Subsidiary of any applicable federal, state or local law, rule or regulation or order of any government, governmental department, board, agency or other instrumentality relating to environmental, pollution, health or safety matters which has, will or threatens to impose a material liability on a Credit Party or a Subsidiary or which has required or would require a material expenditure by a Credit Party or a Subsidiary to cure. No Credit Party nor any Subsidiary has received any notice to the effect that any part of its operations or properties is not in material compliance with any such law, rule, regulation or order or notice that it or its property is the subject of any governmental investigation evaluating whether any remedial action is needed to respond to any release of any toxic or hazardous waste or substance into the environment, which non-compliance or remedial action would reasonably be expected to constitute a Material Adverse Occurrence. Except as set out on Schedule 4.8 attached hereto, no Credit Party has knowledge that it or its property or any Subsidiary or the property of any Subsidiary will become subject to environmental laws or regulations during the term of this Agreement, compliance with which would reasonably be expected to require Capital Expenditures which would constitute a Material Adverse Occurrence.

Section 4.9 Compliance With Health Care Laws.

(a) Except as set forth on Schedule 4.9, each Credit Party, and to the knowledge of each Credit Party, its officers, directors and employees and each of its respective Subsidiaries has complied in all material respects during the past six years and presently complies in all material respects with all applicable statutes, laws, ordinances, rules and regulations of all applicable governmental authorities affecting the conduct of each Credit Party and its respective Subsidiaries with respect to its health care businesses (including, without limitation, all applicable Health Care Laws).

(b) Each Credit Party and each of its respective Subsidiaries has maintained in all material respects all records required to be maintained by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Health Care Organizations (if necessary for the services provided by any Borrower or for any program in which any of them participate), the Food and Drug Administration, Drug Enforcement Agency, State Boards of Pharmacy and the Medicare, Medicaid and other governmental health care programs as and as to the extent required by the Health Care Laws. Each Credit Party and each of its respective Subsidiaries has all applicable permits, approvals, accreditations and other authorizations of Governmental Authorities and other Persons (including, without limitation, such permits, approvals, accreditations and other authorizations as are required under Health Care Laws) to participate in and receive reimbursement under Medicare, Medicaid and other governmental health care programs.

(c) None of the Credit Parties nor any of their respective Subsidiaries is or, to the best knowledge of each Credit Party and each of its respective Subsidiaries, is likely to become the subject of audits outside of the ordinary course, investigations, restrictions, deficiencies, required plans of corrective action, corporate integrity agreements or other such remedial measures with respect to Medicare and/or Medicaid certifications, licensure or the

Health Care Laws.

Section 5.3 Insurance.

The Agent and Lenders agree that, as promptly as is reasonably possible after the exercise of any such setoff right, it shall notify the Borrowers’ Agent of its exercise of such setoff right; provided, however, that the failure of the Agent or any Lender to provide such notice shall not affect the validity of the exercise of such setoff rights. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed a waiver or prohibition of or restriction on the Agent or any Lender to all rights of banker’s Lien, setoff and counterclaim available pursuant to law.

Section 8.18 Relationship Among Borrowers.

(a) Joint and Several Liability. EACH BORROWER AGREES THAT IT IS LIABLE, JOINTLY AND SEVERALLY WITH EACH OTHER BORROWER, FOR THE PAYMENT OF ALL OBLIGATIONS OF THE BORROWERS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, AND THAT THE AGENT CAN ENFORCE SUCH OBLIGATIONS AGAINST ANY OR ALL BORROWERS, IN THE AGENT’S SOLE AND UNLIMITED DISCRETION.

(b) Waivers of Defenses. The obligations of the Borrowers hereunder shall not be released, in whole or in part, by any action or thing which might, but for this provision of this Agreement, be deemed a legal or equitable discharge of a surety or guarantor, other than irrevocable payment and performance in full of the Obligations (except for contingent indemnity and other contingent Obligations not yet due and payable) at a time after any obligation of the Lenders hereunder to make the Term Loan and Revolving Loan shall have expired or been terminated. The purpose and intent of this Agreement is that the Obligations constitute the direct and primary obligations of each Borrower and that the covenants, agreements and all obligations of each Borrower hereunder be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable. Each Borrower shall be and remain liable for any deficiency remaining after foreclosure of any mortgage, deed of trust or security agreement securing all or any part of the Obligations, whether or not the liability of any other Person for such deficiency is discharged pursuant to statute, judicial decision or otherwise.

(c) Other Transactions. The Agent and Lenders are expressly authorized to exchange, surrender or release with or without consideration any or all collateral and security which may at any time be placed with it by the Borrowers or by any other Person on behalf of

the Borrowers, or to forward or deliver any or all such collateral and security directly to the Borrowers for collection and remittance or for credit. No invalidity, irregularity or unenforceability of any security for the Obligations or other recourse with respect thereto shall affect, impair or be a defense to the Borrowers’ obligations under this Agreement. The liabilities of each Borrower hereunder shall not be affected or impaired by any failure, delay, neglect or omission on the part of the Agent or any Lender to realize upon any of the Obligations of any other Borrower to the Agent and Lenders, or upon any collateral or security for any or all of the Obligations, nor by the taking by the Agent or any Lender of (or the failure to take) any guaranty or guaranties to secure the Obligations, nor by the taking by the Agent or any Lender of (or the failure to take or the failure to perfect its security interest in or other lien on) collateral or security of any kind. No act or omission of the Agent or any Lender, whether or not such action or failure to act varies or increases the risk of, or affects the rights or remedies of a Borrower, shall affect or impair the obligations of the Borrowers hereunder.

(d) Actions Not Required. Each Borrower, to the extent permitted by applicable law, hereby waives any and all right to cause a marshaling of the assets of any other Borrower or any other action by any court or other governmental body with respect thereto or to cause the Agent or any Lender to proceed against any security for the Obligations or any other recourse which the Agent or any Lender may have with respect thereto and further waives any and all requirements that the Agent or any Lender institute any action or proceeding at law or in equity, or obtain any judgment, against any other Borrower or any other Person, or with respect to any collateral security for the Obligations, as a condition precedent to making demand on or bringing an action or obtaining and/or enforcing a judgment against, such Borrower under this Agreement.

(e) No Subrogation. Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by any Borrower hereunder or any setoff or application of funds of any Borrower by the Agent or any Lender, such Borrower shall not be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Agent or Lender against any other Borrower or any other guarantor or any collateral security or guaranty or right of offset held by the Agent or any Lender for the payment of the Obligations, nor shall such Borrower seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from any other Borrower or any other guarantor in respect of payments made by such Borrower hereunder, until all amounts owing to the Agent and Lenders by the Borrowers on account of the Obligations are irrevocably paid in full. If any amount shall be paid to a Borrower on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Obligations shall not have been irrevocably paid in full, such amount shall be held by that Borrower in trust for the Agent and Lenders, segregated from other funds of that Borrower, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by the Borrower, be turned over to the Agent in the exact form received by such Borrower (duly indorsed by the Borrower to the Agent, if required), to be applied against the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as the Agent may determine.

(f) Application of Payments. Except as provided in Section 2.19 or as otherwise required by the Required Lenders, any and all payments upon the Obligations made by the Borrowers or by any other Person, and/or the proceeds of any or all collateral or security for any of the Obligations, may be applied by the Agent on such items of the Obligations as the Agent may elect.

(g) Recovery of Payment. If any payment received by the Agent, the Funding Agent or any Lender and applied to the Obligations is subsequently set aside, recovered, rescinded or required to be returned for any reason (including, without limitation, the bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of a Borrower or any other obligor), the Obligations to which such payment was applied shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be deemed to have continued in existence, notwithstanding such application, and each Borrower shall be jointly and severally liable for such Obligations as fully as if such application had never been made. References in this Agreement to amounts “irrevocably paid” or to “irrevocable payment” refer to payments that cannot be set aside, recovered, rescinded or required to be returned for any reason.

(h) Borrowers’ Financial Condition. Each Borrower is familiar with the financial condition of the other Borrowers, and each Borrower has executed and delivered this Agreement based on that Borrower’s own judgment and not in reliance upon any statement or representation of the Agent or any Lender. None of the Agent, the Funding Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to provide any Borrower with any advice whatsoever or to inform any Borrower at any time of the Agent’s, the Funding Agent’s or any Lender’s actions, evaluations or conclusions on the financial condition or any other matter concerning the Borrowers.

(i) Bankruptcy of the Borrowers. Each Borrower expressly agrees that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the liabilities and obligations of that Borrower under this Agreement shall not in any way be impaired or otherwise affected by the institution by or against any other Borrower or any other Person of any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings, or any other similar proceedings for relief under any bankruptcy law or similar law for the relief of debtors and that any discharge of any of the Obligations pursuant to any such bankruptcy or similar law or other law shall not diminish, discharge or otherwise affect in any way the obligations of that Borrower under this Agreement, and that upon the institution of any of the above actions, such obligations shall be enforceable against that Borrower.

(j) Limitation; Insolvency Laws. As used in this Section 8.18(j): (a) the term “Applicable Insolvency Laws” means the laws of the United States or of any State, province, nation or other governmental unit relating to bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment of debts, relief of debtors, dissolution, insolvency, fraudulent transfers or conveyances or other similar laws (including, without limitation, 11 U. S. C. §547, §548, §550 and other “avoidance” provisions of Title 11 of the United States Code) as applicable in any proceeding in which the validity and/or enforceability of this Agreement against any Borrower, or any Specified Lien is in issue; and (b) “Specified Lien” means any security interest, mortgage, lien or encumbrance granted by any Borrower securing the Obligations, in whole or in part. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if, in any proceeding, a court of competent jurisdiction determines that with respect to any Borrower, this Agreement or any Specified Lien would, but for the operation of this Section, be subject to avoidance and/or recovery or be unenforceable by reason of Applicable Insolvency Laws, this Agreement and each such Specified Lien shall be valid and enforceable against such Borrower, only to the maximum extent that would not cause this Agreement or such Specified Lien to be subject to avoidance, recovery or unenforceability. To the extent that any payment to, or realization by, the Agent, the

Funding Agent and Lenders on the Obligations exceeds the limitations of this Section and is otherwise subject to avoidance and recovery in any such proceeding, the amount subject to avoidance shall in all events be limited to the amount by which such actual payment or realization exceeds such limitation, and this Agreement as limited shall in all events remain in full force and effect and be fully enforceable against such Borrower. This Section is intended solely to reserve the rights of the Agent, the Funding Agent and Lenders hereunder against each Borrower, in such proceeding to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Insolvency Laws and neither the Borrowers, any guarantor of the Obligations nor any other Person shall have any right, claim or defense under this Section that would not otherwise be available under Applicable Insolvency Laws in such proceeding.

Section 8.19 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts that are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively, the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) that may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Agent or any Lender in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to the Agent and Lenders in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by the Agent and Lenders.

Section 8.20 Deposit on Termination of Revolving Commitments. In the event of the payment in full of the Obligations and termination by the Borrowers of the Revolving Commitments established hereunder, the Agent may, in its discretion, require Borrowers to deposit with the Agent a reasonable amount, not to exceed $10,000, to cover any and all reasonable costs and expenses which may be incurred by the Agent in connection with terminating the Revolving Commitments and Agent’s Liens on the Collateral. Upon the final payment in full of the Obligations and termination of the Revolving Commitments hereunder, the Agent shall take all actions and execute all documents reasonably required to terminate this Agreement and any and all Liens of the Agent on the Collateral, and all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Agent may be deducted from such deposit, with any remaining balance to be returned by the Agent to the Borrowers’ Agent no later than sixty (60) days after the final payment in full of the Obligations.

Section 8.21 Replacement of Lenders.

(a) Within fifteen (15) days after receipt by Borrowers’ Agent of written notice and demand from any Lender for payment pursuant to Section 2.16(e) or 2.20 or, as provided in this Section 8.21(c), in the case of certain refusals by any Lender to consent to certain proposed amendments, modifications, terminations or waivers with respect to this Agreement that have been approved by Required Lenders, Required Revolving Lenders or all affected Lenders, as applicable (any such Lender demanding such payment or refusing to so consent being referred to herein as an “Affected Lender”), Borrowers may, at their option, notify Agent and such Affected Lender of its intention to do one of the following:

(i) Borrowers may obtain, at Borrowers’ expense, a replacement Lender (“Replacement Lender”) for such Affected Lender, which Replacement Lender shall be reasonably satisfactory to Agent. In the event Borrowers obtain a Replacement Lender that will purchase all outstanding Obligations owed to such Affected Lender and assume its Revolving Commitments hereunder within ninety (90) days following notice of Borrowers’ intention to do so, the Affected Lender shall sell and assign all of its rights and delegate all of its obligations under this Agreement to such Replacement Lender in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.1, provided that Borrowers have reimbursed such Affected Lender for any administrative fee payable pursuant to Section 9.1, and, in any case where such replacement occurs as the result of a demand for payment pursuant to Section 2.16(c) or 2.20, paid all amounts required to be paid to such Affected Lender pursuant to Section 2.16(c) or 2.20 through the date of such sale and assignment; or

(ii) Borrowers may, with Agent’s consent, prepay in full all outstanding Obligations owed to such Affected Lender and terminate such Affected Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Commitment in which case the Revolving Commitment will be reduced by the amount of such Pro Rata Share. Borrowers shall, within ninety (90) days following notice of their intention to do so, prepay in full all outstanding Obligations owed to such Affected Lender (including, in any case where such prepayment occurs as the result of a demand for payment for increased costs, such Affected Lender’s increased costs for which it is entitled to reimbursement under this Agreement through the date of such prepayment), and terminate such Affected Lender’s obligations under the Revolving Commitment.

(b) In the case of a Non-Funding Lender pursuant to Section 9.5(a), at Borrowers’ Agent’s request, Agent or a Person acceptable to Agent shall have the right with Agent’s consent and in Agent’s sole discretion (but shall have no obligation) to purchase from any Non-Funding Lender, and each Non-Funding Lender agrees that it shall, at Agent’s request, sell and assign to Agent or such Person, all of the Loans and Revolving Commitments of that Non-Funding Lender for an amount equal to the principal balance of all Loans held by such Non-Funding Lender and all accrued interest and Fees with respect thereto through the date of sale, such purchase and sale to be consummated pursuant to an executed Assignment Agreement.

(c) If, in connection with any proposed amendment, modification, waiver or termination pursuant to Section 8.1 (a “Proposed Change”): requiring the consent of all affected Lenders, the consent of Required Lenders is obtained, but the consent of other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is not obtained as described above being referred to as a “Non-Consenting Lender”) then, so long as Agent is not a Non-Consenting Lender, at Borrowers Agent’s request Agent, or a Person reasonably acceptable to Agent, shall have the right with Agent’s consent and in Agent’s sole discretion (but shall have no obligation) to purchase from such Non-Consenting Lenders, and such Non-Consenting Lenders agree that they shall, upon Agent’s request, sell and assign to Agent or such Person, all of the Loans and Revolving Commitments of such Non-Consenting Lenders for an amount equal to the principal balance of all Loans held by the Non-Consenting Lenders and all accrued interest and Fees and other Obligations owing with respect thereto through the date of sale, such purchase and sale to be consummated pursuant to an executed Assignment Agreement.

Section 8.22 Lenders’ Obligations Several; Independent Nature of Lenders’ Rights. The obligation of each Lender hereunder is several and not joint and no Lender shall be responsible for the obligation or commitment of any other Lender hereunder. In the event that any Lender at any time should fail to make a Loan as herein provided, the Lenders, or any of them, at their sole option, may make the Loan that was to have been made by the Lender so failing to make such Loan. Nothing contained in any Loan Document and no action taken by Agent or any Lender pursuant hereto or thereto shall be deemed to constitute Lenders to be a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity. The amounts payable at any time hereunder to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt.

Section 8.23 Patriot Act Notice. Each Lender and the Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any other party) hereby notifies the Borrower that, pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act, Title III of Pub. L. 107-56, signed into law October 26, 2001 (the “Patriot Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act.

ARTICLE IX

ASSIGNMENT AND PARTICIPATION

Section 9.1 Assignment and Participations.

(a) Subject to the terms of this Section 9.1, any Lender may make an assignment to a Qualified Transferee of, or sale of participations in, at any time or times, the Loan Documents, Loans and any Revolving Commitment or any portion thereof or interest therein, including any Lender’s rights, title, interests, remedies, powers or duties thereunder. Any assignment by a Lender shall: (i) require the consent of Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed with respect to a Qualified Transferee) and the execution of an assignment agreement (an “Assignment Agreement” substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit L and otherwise in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to, and acknowledged by, Agent); (ii) be conditioned on such assignee Lender representing to the assigning Lender and Agent that it is purchasing the applicable Loans to be assigned to it for its own account, for investment purposes and not with a view to the distribution thereof; (iii) (except with respect to any assignment by a Lender to an Affiliate of such Lender) after giving effect to any such partial assignment, the assignee Lender shall have Revolving Commitments in an aggregate principal amount at least equal to $5,000,000 and the assigning Lender shall have retained Revolving Commitments and/or Term Loans in an aggregate principal amount at least equal to $3,000,000; and (iv) require a payment to Agent of an assignment fee of $3,500. Notwithstanding the above, Agent may, in its sole and absolute discretion, permit any assignment by a Lender to a Person or Persons that are not Qualified Transferee; provided, that, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower’s Agent has consented to such assignment, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. In the case of an assignment by a Lender under this Section 9.1, the assignee shall have, to the extent of such assignment, the same rights,

benefits and obligations as all other Lenders hereunder. The assigning Lender shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder with respect to its Revolving Commitments or assigned portion thereof and the Loans and other interests assigned by it from and after the date of such assignment. Borrowers hereby acknowledge and agree that any assignment shall give rise to a direct obligation of Borrowers to the assignee and that the assignee shall be considered to be a “Lender.” In all instances, each Lender’s liability to make Loans hereunder shall be several and not joint and shall be limited to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the applicable Revolving Commitment. In the event Agent or any Lender assigns or otherwise transfers all or any part of the Obligations, Agent or any such Lender shall so notify Borrowers and Borrowers shall, upon the request of Agent or such Lender, execute new Notes in exchange for the Notes, if any, being assigned. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.1(a), (A) any Lender may at any time pledge the Obligations held by it and such Lender’s rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to a Federal Reserve Bank or to any Person providing funding to such Lender, (B) any Lender that is an investment fund may assign the Obligations held by it and such Lender’s rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to another investment fund managed by the same investment advisor or pledge such Obligations and rights to trustee for the benefit of its investors and (C) any Lender may assign the Obligations to an Affiliate of such Lender or to a Person that is a Lender prior to the date of such assignment.

(b) Any participation by a Lender of all or any part of its Revolving Commitments and/or Term Loans shall be made with the understanding that all amounts payable by Borrowers hereunder shall be determined as if that Lender had not sold such participation, and that the holder of any such participation shall not be entitled to require such Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder except actions directly affecting (i) any reduction in the principal amount of, or interest rate or Fees payable with respect to, any Loan in which such holder participates, (ii) any extension of the scheduled amortization of the principal amount of any Loan in which such holder participates or the final maturity date thereof, and (iii) any release of all or substantially all of the Collateral (other than in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Collateral Documents or the other Loan Documents). Solely for purposes of Sections 2.16, 2.19, 8.12 and 9.3, Borrowers acknowledge and agree that a participation shall give rise to a direct obligation of Borrowers to the participant and the participant shall be considered to be a “Lender.” Except as set forth in the preceding sentence no Borrower or any other Credit Party shall have any obligation or duty to any participant. Neither Agent nor any Lender (other than the Lender selling a participation) shall have any duty to any participant and may continue to deal solely with the Lender selling a participation as if no such sale had occurred.

(c) Except as expressly provided in this Section 9.1, no Lender shall, as between Borrowers and that Lender, or Agent and that Lender, be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as a result of any sale, assignment, transfer or negotiation of, or granting of participation in, all or any part of the Loans, the Notes or other Obligations owed to such Lender.

(d) Each Credit Party shall assist each Lender permitted to sell assignments or participations under this Section 9.1 as required to enable the assigning or selling Lender to effect any such assignment or participation, including the execution and delivery of any and all agreements, notes and other documents and instruments as shall be requested and the prompt preparation of informational materials for, and the participation of management in meetings with,

potential assignees or participants, all on a timetable reasonably established by Agent. Each Credit Party executing this Agreement shall certify, to the same extent and on the same basis as certified in this Agreement, the correctness, completeness and accuracy of all descriptions of the Credit Parties and their respective affairs contained in any selling materials provided by it and all other information provided by it and included in such materials, except that any projections or statements of forecasted consolidated income and statements of forecasted consolidated balance sheets delivered by Borrowers shall only be certified by Borrowers as having been prepared by Borrowers in compliance with the representations contained in Section 4.5. Agent shall maintain, on behalf of Borrowers, in its offices located at ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ a “register” for recording the name, address, commitment and Loans owing to each Lender. The entries in each such register shall be presumptive evidence of the amounts due and owing to each Lender in the absence of manifest error. Borrowers, Agent and each Lender may treat each Person whose name is recorded in such register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender for all purposes of this Agreement. Each such register described herein shall be available for inspection by Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time upon reasonable prior notice.

(e) A Lender may furnish any information concerning Credit Parties in the possession of such Lender from time to time to assignees and participants (including prospective assignees and participants); provided that such Lender shall obtain from assignees or participants confidentiality covenants substantially equivalent to those contained in Section 8.7.

(f) Each Lender agrees to and shall be bound by the same restrictions, terms and conditions that apply to Agent under any Business Associate Agreement that may be entered into from time to time by and among Agent and any Credit Party. The requirements of this Section 9.1(f) shall apply to each Lender who is a party to this Agreement as the date first written above and to any individual or entity who becomes a Lender at any time thereafter.

Section 9.2 Agent and Funding Agent.

(a) Appointment.

(i) Each Lender and Funding Agent hereby designates and appoints Chatham, and reaffirms and confirms its designation and appointment of Chatham under the Original Credit Agreement, as its Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and each Lender and Funding Agent hereby irrevocably authorizes Agent, and reaffirms and confirm their authorization of the Agent under the Original Credit Agreement, to execute and deliver the Security Documents and to take such action or to refrain from taking such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers as are set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Agent is authorized and empowered to amend, modify, or waive any provisions of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents on behalf of Lenders subject to the requirement that certain of Lenders’ consent be obtained in certain instances as provided in this Section 9.2 and Section 8.1. In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement, Agent shall act solely as agent of the applicable Lenders and Funding Agent, and Agent does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation toward or relationship of agency or trust with or for Borrowers or any other Credit Party. Agent may perform any of its duties hereunder, or under the Loan Documents, by or through its agents or employees.

(ii) Each Lender and Agent hereby designates and appoints UBOC as its Funding Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and each Lender and Agent hereby irrevocably authorizes Funding Agent to take such action or to refrain from taking such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers as are set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement, Funding Agent shall act solely as agent of the applicable Lenders and Agent, and Funding Agent does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation toward or relationship of agency or trust with or for Borrowers or any other Credit Party. Funding Agent may perform any of its duties hereunder, or under the Loan Documents, by or through its agents or employees.

(iii) The provisions of this Section 9.2 are solely for the benefit of Agent, Funding Agent and Lenders and neither Borrowers nor any other Credit Party shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions hereof.

(b) Nature of Duties. The duties of Agent and Funding Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in nature. Neither Agent nor Funding Agent shall have by reason of this Agreement any fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender. Nothing in this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, express or implied, is intended to or shall be construed to impose upon Agent or Funding Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents except as expressly set forth herein or therein. Each Lender shall make its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of each Credit Party in connection with the extension of credit hereunder and shall make its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of each Credit Party and neither Agent nor Funding Agent shall have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto (other than as expressly required herein). If Agent or Funding Agent seeks the consent or approval of any Lenders to the taking or refraining from taking any action hereunder, then Agent and Funding Agent, as the case may be, shall send notice thereof to each applicable Lender. Agent and Funding Agent shall promptly notify each applicable Lender any time that the Required Lenders, and/or Required Revolving Lenders have instructed Agent or Funding Agent, as the case may be, to act or refrain from acting pursuant hereto.

(c) Rights, Exculpation, Etc. Neither Agent, Funding Agent nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable to any Lender for any action taken or omitted by them hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents, or in connection herewith or therewith, except that Agent and Funding Agent shall be liable to the extent of their own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final non-appealable order by a court of competent jurisdiction. Neither Agent nor Funding Agent shall be liable for any apportionment or distribution of payments made by it in good faith and if any such apportionment or distribution is subsequently determined to have been made in error the sole recourse of any Lender to whom payment was due but not made, shall be to recover from other Lenders any payment in excess of the amount to which they are determined to be entitled (and

such other Lenders hereby agree to return to such Lender any such erroneous payments received by them). In no event shall Agent or Funding Agent be liable for punitive, special, consequential, incidental, exemplary or other similar damages. In performing its respective functions and duties hereunder, each of Agent and Funding Agent shall exercise the same care which it would in dealing with loans for its own account, but neither Agent, Funding Agent nor any of their respective agents or representatives shall be responsible to any Lender for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties herein or for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectibility, or sufficiency of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby, or for the financial condition of any Credit Party. Neither Agent nor Funding Agent shall be required to make any inquiry concerning either the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents or the financial condition of any Credit Party, or the existence or possible existence of any Default or Event of Default. Agent and Funding Agent, as the case may be, may at any time request instructions from Required Lenders, and/or Required Revolving Lenders or all affected Lenders with respect to any actions or approvals which by the terms of this Agreement or of any of the Loan Documents, Agent and Funding Agent, as applicable, is permitted or required to take or to grant. If such instructions are promptly requested, Agent and Funding Agent, as the case may be, shall be absolutely entitled to refrain from taking any action or to withhold any approval and shall not be under any liability whatsoever to any Person for refraining from any action or withholding any approval under any of the Loan Documents until it shall have received such instructions from the Required Lenders, and/or Required Revolving Lenders or such other portion of the Lenders as shall be prescribed by this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against Agent or Funding Agent as a result of Agent or Funding Agent, as the case may be, acting or refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in accordance with the instructions of Required Lenders, and/or Required Revolving Lenders or all affected Lenders, as applicable; and, notwithstanding the instructions of Required Lenders and/or Required Revolving Lenders or all affected Lenders, as applicable, neither Agent nor Funding Agent shall have any obligation to take any action if it believes, in good faith, that such action is deemed to be illegal by Agent or Funding Agent, as applicable, or exposes Agent or Funding Agent, as applicable, to any liability for which it has not received satisfactory indemnification in accordance with Section 9.2(e).

(d) Reliance. Agent and Funding Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any written or oral notices, statements, certificates, orders or other documents or any telephone message or other communication (including any writing, telex, fax or telegram) believed by Agent or Funding Agent, as the case may be, in good faith to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person, and with respect to all matters pertaining to this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents and its duties hereunder or thereunder. Agent and Funding Agent shall be entitled to rely upon the advice of legal counsel, independent accountants, and other experts selected by Agent or Funding Agent, as the case may be, in its sole discretion.

(e) Indemnification. Lenders will reimburse and indemnify Agent and Funding Agent for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses), advances or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (collectively, “Lender

Indemnified Liabilities”) which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against Agent in its capacity as such and Funding Agent in its capacity as such, as the case may be, in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by Agent in its capacity as such and by Funding Agent in its capacity as such, as the case may be, in under this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, in proportion to each Lender’s Pro Rata Share, but only to the extent that any of the foregoing is not reimbursed by Borrowers; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses, advances or disbursements to the extent resulting from Agent’s or Funding Agent’s, as applicable, gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final non-appealable order by a court of competent jurisdiction. If any indemnity furnished to Agent or Funding Agent, as the case may be, for any purpose shall, in the opinion of Agent or Funding Agent, as applicable, be insufficient or become impaired, Agent and Funding Agent, as applicable, may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against even if so directed by the Required Lenders and/or Required Revolving Lenders or such other portion of the Lenders as shall be prescribed by this Agreement until such additional indemnity is furnished. The obligations of Lenders under this Section 9.2(e) shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9.2(e), the Lenders shall not have any obligation under this Section 9.2(e) to reimburse or indemnify Funding Agent for any Lender Indemnified Liability for which the Credit Parties party hereto are not obligated to reimburse or indemnify Funding Agent under Section 8.2 {Expenses} or Section 8.12 {Indemnification} of this Agreement.

(f) Chatham (or any Successor Agent) and UBOC (or any Successor Agent) Individually.

(i) With respect to its Revolving Commitments and Term Loans hereunder, Chatham (or any Successor Agent) shall have and may exercise the same rights and powers hereunder and is subject to the same obligations and liabilities as and to the extent set forth herein for any other Lender.

(ii) Appointment of Successor. Upon any such applicable notice of resignation pursuant to clause (i) above, Required Lenders shall appoint a successor Agent, which, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, shall be reasonably acceptable to Borrowers’ Agent. If a successor Agent shall not have been so appointed within the thirty (30) Business Day period referred to in clause (i) above, the retiring Agent upon notice to Borrowers’ Agent, shall then appoint a successor Agent who shall serve as Agent until such time, if any, as Required Lenders appoint a successor Agent in the manner as provided above.

(iii) Successor Agents. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent or under the Loan Documents by a successor Agent such successor Agent or shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents.

Agent’s resignation as Funding Agent the provisions of this Section 9.2 shall continue to inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it in its capacity as Funding Agent.

(h) Collateral Matters.

(i) Release of Collateral. Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Lien granted to or held by Agent upon any Collateral (x) upon termination of the Revolving Commitments and payment and satisfaction of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations to the extent no claims giving rise thereto have been asserted), (y) constituting property being sold or disposed of if Borrowers (or any of them) certify to Agent that the sale or disposition is made in compliance with the provisions of this Agreement (and Agent may rely in good faith conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry) or (z) in accordance with the provisions of the next sentence. In addition, with the consent of Required Lenders, Agent may release any Lien granted to or held by Agent upon any Collateral having a book value not greater than ten percent (10%) of the total book value of all Collateral, either in a single transaction or in a series of related transactions; provided, however, that in no event will Agent, acting under the authority granted to it pursuant to this sentence, release Collateral having a total book value in excess of twenty percent (20%) of the book value of all Collateral, as determined by Agent.

(ii) Confirmation of Authority; Execution of Releases. Without in any manner limiting Agent’s authority to act without any specific or further authorization or consent by Lenders (as set forth in Section 9.2(h)(i)), each Lender agrees to confirm in writing, upon request by Agent or Borrowers’ Agent, the authority to release any Collateral conferred upon Agent under clauses (x) and (y) of Section 9.2(h)(i). Upon receipt by Agent of any required confirmation from the Required Lenders of its authority to release any particular item or types of Collateral, and upon at least ten (10) Business Days’ prior written request by Borrowers’ Agent, Agent shall (and is hereby irrevocably authorized by Lenders to) execute such documents as may be necessary to evidence the release of the Liens granted to Agent upon such Collateral; provided, however, that (x) Agent shall not be required to execute any such document on terms which, in Agent’s opinion, would expose Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Liens without recourse or warranty, and (y) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Obligations or any Liens upon (or obligations of any Credit Party, in respect of), all interests retained by any Credit Party, including the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral.

(iii) Absence of Duty. Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any Lender or any other Person to assure that the property covered by the Collateral Documents exists or is owned by Borrowers or any other Credit Party or is cared for, protected or insured or has been encumbered or that the Liens granted to Agent have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are

entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to Agent in this Section 9.2(h) or in any of the Loan Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the property covered by the Security Documents or any act, omission or event related thereto, Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its discretion, given Agent’s own interest in property covered by the Security Documents as one of the Lenders and that Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to any of the other Lenders, provided that Agent shall exercise the same care which it would in dealing with loans for its own account.

(iv) Agency for Perfection. Agent and each Lender hereby appoint each other Lender as agent for the purpose of perfecting Agent’s security interest in assets which, in accordance with the Code in any applicable jurisdiction, can be perfected by possession or control. Should any Lender (other than Agent) obtain possession or control of any such assets, such Lender shall notify Agent thereof, and, promptly upon Agent’s request therefor, shall deliver such assets to Agent or in accordance with Agent’s instructions or transfer control to Agent in accordance with Agent’s instructions. Each Lender agrees that it will not have any right individually to enforce or seek to enforce any Security Document or to realize upon any collateral security for the Loans unless instructed to do so by Agent in writing, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised only by Agent.

(i) Notice of Default. Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and Fees required to be paid to Agent for the account of Lenders, unless Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or Borrowers’ Agent referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. Agent will use reasonable efforts to notify each Lender of its receipt of any such notice, unless such notice is with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees, in which case Agent will notify each Lender of its receipt of such notice. Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be requested by Required Lenders in accordance with Article VII. Unless and until Agent has received any such request, Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interests of Lenders.

(j) Lender Actions Against Collateral. Each Lender agrees that it will not take any enforcement action, nor institute any actions or proceedings, with respect to the Loans, against any Borrower or any Credit Party hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or against any Collateral (including the exercise of any right of set-off) without the consent of the Agent or Required Lenders. All such enforcement actions and proceedings shall be taken in concert and at the direction with the consent of Agent or Required Lenders. Agent is authorized to issue all notices to be issued by or on behalf of Lenders with respect to any Subordinated Debt. With respect to any action by Agent to enforce the rights and remedies of Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, each Lender hereby consents to the jurisdiction of the court in which such action is maintained, and agrees to deliver its Notes to Agent to the extent necessary to enforce the rights and remedies of Agent for the benefit of the Lenders under the Mortgages in accordance with the provisions hereof.

Section 9.3 Set Off and Sharing of Payments. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender is hereby authorized by Borrowers at any time or from time to time, with reasonably prompt subsequent notice to Borrowers’ Agent (any prior or contemporaneous notice being hereby expressly waived) to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all (A) balances held by such Lender at any of its offices for the account of any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (regardless of whether such balances are then due to any Borrower or its Subsidiaries), and (B) other property at any time held or owing by such Lender to or for the credit or for the account of any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, against and on account of any of the Obligations; except that no Lender shall exercise any such right without the prior written consent of Agent. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the failure to give notice of any set off and application made by such Lender to Borrowers’ Agent shall not affect the validity of such set off and application. Any Lender exercising a right to set off shall purchase for cash (and the other Lenders shall sell) interests in each of such other Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Obligations as would be necessary to cause all Lenders to share the amount so set off with each other Lender entitled to share in the amount so set off in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares in a manner consistent with Section 2.19. Borrowers agree, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, any Lender may exercise its right to set off with respect to amounts in excess of its Pro Rata Share of the Obligations and upon doing so shall deliver such amount so set off to the Agent for the benefit of all Lenders entitled to share in the amount so set off in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares in a manner consistent with Section 2.19.

Section 9.4 Disbursement of Funds. Funding Agent may, on behalf of Revolving Lenders, disburse funds to Borrowers for Revolving Loans requested. Each Revolving Lender shall reimburse Funding Agent on demand for all funds disbursed on its behalf by Funding Agent, or if Funding Agent so requests, each Revolving Lender will remit to Funding Agent its Pro Rata Share of any Revolving Loan before Funding Agent disburses same to Borrowers. If Funding Agent elects to require that each Revolving Lender make funds available to Funding Agent prior to a disbursement by Funding Agent to Borrowers, Funding Agent shall advise each Revolving Lender by telephone or fax of the amount of such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loan requested by Borrowers’ Agent no later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date of funding an Advance applicable thereto, and each such Revolving Lender shall pay Funding Agent such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such requested Revolving Loan, in same day funds, by wire transfer to Funding Agent’s account on the date of funding such Advance. If any Revolving Lender fails to pay the amount of its Pro Rata Share within one (1) Business Day after Funding Agent’s demand, Funding Agent shall promptly notify Borrowers’ Agent, and Borrowers shall immediately repay such amount to Funding Agent. Any repayment required pursuant to this Section 9.4 shall be without premium or penalty. Nothing in this Section 9.4 or elsewhere in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, including the provisions of Section 9.5, shall be deemed to require Funding Agent to advance funds on behalf of any Lender or to relieve any Revolving Lender from its obligation to fulfill its commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that Funding Agent or Borrowers may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Revolving Lender hereunder.

Section 9.5 Disbursements of Advances; Payment.

(a) Advances; Payments. At least once each calendar month or more frequently at Funding Agent’s election (each, a “Settlement Date”), Funding Agent shall advise each Lender by telephone or fax of the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of principal, interest and Fees paid for the benefits of Lenders with respect to each applicable Loan. Provided that each Lender has funded all payments and Advances required to be made by it and purchased all participations required to be purchased by it under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as of such Settlement Date, Funding Agent shall pay to each Lender such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of principal, interest and Fees paid by Borrowers to Agent since the previous Settlement Date for the benefit of such Lender on the Loans held by it. Such payments shall be made by wire transfer to such Lender’s account (as specified by such Lender in such Lender’s signature page to this Agreement or the applicable Assignment Agreement) not later than 3:00 p.m. (New York time) on the next Business Day following each Settlement Date. To the extent that any Lender (a “Non-Funding Lender”) has failed to fund all such payments and Advances or failed to fund the purchase of all such participations required to be funded or purchased by such Lender pursuant to this Agreement, Funding Agent and/or Agent shall be entitled to set off the funding shortfall against that Non-Funding Lender’s Pro Rata Share of all payments received from or in respect of Borrowers.

(b) Availability of Lender’s Pro Rata Share. Funding Agent may assume that each Revolving Lender will make its Pro Rata Share of each Advance available to Funding Agent on date of funding of such Advance. If such Pro Rata Share is not, in fact, paid to Funding Agent by such Revolving Lender when due, Funding Agent will be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Revolving Lender without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind. If any Revolving Lender fails to pay the amount of its Pro Rata Share forthwith upon Funding Agent’s demand, Funding Agent shall promptly notify Borrowers’ Agent and Borrowers shall immediately repay such amount to Funding Agent. Nothing in this Section 9.5(b) or elsewhere in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to require Agent to advance funds on behalf of any Revolving Lender or to relieve any Revolving Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Revolving Commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that Borrowers may have against any Revolving Lender as a result of any default by such Revolving Lender hereunder. To the extent that Funding Agent advances funds to Borrowers on behalf of any Revolving Lender and is not reimbursed therefor on the same Business Day as such Advance is made, Funding Agent shall be entitled to retain for its account all interest accrued on such Advance until reimbursed by the applicable Revolving Lender.

(i) If Funding Agent or Agent, as the case may be, pays an amount to a Lender under this Agreement in the belief or expectation that a related payment has been or will be received by Funding Agent or Agent, as the case may be, from Borrowers and such related payment is not received by Funding Agent or Agent then Funding Agent and Agent, as applicable, will be entitled to recover such amount from such Lender on demand without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind.

(ii) If Agent or Funding Agent determines at any time that any amount received by Agent or Funding Agent, as the case may be, under this Agreement must be returned to any Borrower or paid to any other Person pursuant to any insolvency law or otherwise, then, notwithstanding any other term or condition of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Agent and Funding Agent, as applicable, shall not be required to distribute any portion thereof to any Lender. In addition, each Lender will repay to Agent or Funding Agent, as the case may be, on demand any portion of such amount that Agent and Funding Agent, as applicable, has distributed to such Lender, together with interest at such rate, if any, as Agent and Funding Agent, as the case may be, is required to pay to any Borrower or such other Person, without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind.

(iii) Non-Funding Lenders. The failure of any Non-Funding Lender to make any Advance or any payment required by it hereunder on the date specified therefor shall not relieve any other Lender (each such other Revolving Lender, an “Other Lender”) of its obligations to make such Advance or purchase such participation on such date, but neither any Other Lender, neither Funding Agent nor Agent shall be responsible for the failure of any Non-Funding Lender to make an Advance, purchase a participation or make any other payment required hereunder. Notwithstanding anything set forth herein to the contrary, a Non-Funding Lender shall not have any voting or consent rights under or with respect to any Loan Document or constitute a “Lender”, or a “Revolving Lender” (or be included in the calculation of “Required Lenders” or “Required Revolving Lenders” hereunder) for any voting or consent rights under or with respect to any Loan Document.
