On any Business Day, the Swingline Lender may in its sole discretion, give notice to the Lenders that all then outstanding Swingline Loans shall be funded with a Borrowing of Revolving Loans (provided that such notice shall be deemed to have been automatically given upon the occurrence of an Event of Default), in which case a Borrowing of Revolving Loans constituting Base Rate Loans (each such Borrowing, a “Mandatory Borrowing”) shall be made on the immediately succeeding Business Day by all Lenders with a Revolving Commitment pro rata based on such Lender’s Revolving Percentages and the proceeds thereof shall be applied directly to the Swingline Lender to repay such outstanding Swingline Loans.

In the event that any Mandatory Borrowing cannot for any reason be made on the date otherwise required above (including, without limitation, as a result of the commencement of a proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code in respect of the Borrowers), each Lender with a Revolving Commitment hereby agrees that it shall forthwith purchase from the Swingline Lender (without recourse or warranty), by assignment, such outstanding Swingline Loans as shall be necessary to cause such Lenders to share in such Swingline Loans ratably based upon their respective Revolving Percentages, provided that all interest payable on such Swingline Loans shall be for the account of the Swingline Lender until the date the respective purchase is made and, to the extent attributable to such purchase, shall be payable to such Lender purchasing same from and after such date of purchase.

Section 2.2. Minimum Borrowing Amounts, etc. The aggregate principal amount of each Borrowing under a Facility shall be the Minimum Borrowing Amount for such Facility (except that Mandatory Borrowings shall be made in the amounts required by Section 2.1(c)). More than one Borrowing may be incurred on any day, provided that at no time shall there be outstanding more than an aggregate of eight (8) Borrowings of Eurodollar Rate Loans.

Section 2.3. Notice of Borrowing. (a) Whenever the Borrowers desire to incur Loans under any Facility (other than the Swingline Facility and any Mandatory Borrowings), they shall give the Administrative Agent at its Notice Office, prior to 11:00 a.m., at least three Business Days’ prior written notice of each Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans and at least one Business Day’s prior written notice of each Borrowing of Base Rate Loans to be made hereunder. Each such notice (each a “Notice of Borrowing”) shall be in the form of Exhibit C, shall be irrevocable once given, and shall specify (i) the Facility pursuant to which such Borrowing is being made, (ii) the aggregate principal amount of the Loans to be made pursuant to such Borrowing, (iii) the date of Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day) and (iv) whether the respective Borrowing shall consist of Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Rate Loans, and in the case of Eurodollar Rate Loans, the Interest Period to be initially applicable thereto.

Each such notice shall specify in each case (i) the date of Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day) and (ii) the aggregate principal amount of the Swingline Loans to be made pursuant to such Borrowing. Without in any way limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to confirm in writing any telephonic notice permitted to be given hereunder with respect to Swingline Loans, the Administrative Agent may act prior to receipt of written confirmation without liability upon the basis of such telephonic notice believed by the Administrative Agent in good faith to be from an Authorized Officer of the Borrowers as a person entitled to give telephonic notices under this Agreement on behalf of the Borrowers. In each such case, the Administrative Agent’s record of the terms of such telephonic notice shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(c) Mandatory Borrowings shall be made upon the notice specified in Section 2.1(c), with the Borrowers irrevocably agreeing, by their incurrence of any Swingline Loans, to the making of Mandatory Borrowings as set forth in such Section.

- 28 -

Section 2.4. Disbursement of Funds. (a) No later than 11:00 a.m. on the date specified in each Notice of Borrowing, each Lender with a Commitment under the respective Facility will make available its pro rata share of each Borrowing requested to be made on such date in the manner provided below. All amounts shall be made available to the Administrative Agent in Dollars and immediately available funds at the Payment Office, and the Administrative Agent promptly will make available to the Borrowers by depositing to its account at the Payment Office the aggregate of the amounts so made available in the type of funds received. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the date of Borrowing that such Lender does not intend to make available to the Administrative Agent its portion of the Borrowing or Borrowings to be made on such date, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent on such date of Borrowing, and the Administrative Agent, in reliance upon such assumption, may (in its sole discretion and without any obligation to do so) make available to the Borrowers a corresponding amount. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender and the Administrative Agent has made available same to the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount from such Lender. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrowers, and the Borrowers shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover from such Lender or the Borrowers, as the case may be, interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the Borrowers to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to (x) if paid by such Lender, the overnight Federal Funds Effective Rate or (y) if paid by the Borrowers, the then applicable rate of interest, calculated in accordance with Section 2.8, for the respective Loans.

(b) Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights which the Borrowers may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

Section 2.5. Evidence of Indebtedness. (a) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing indebtedness of the Borrowers to such Lender resulting from each Loan of such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement.

(b) The Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Borrowers, shall maintain the Register pursuant to Section 12.4(c), and a subaccount therein for each Lender, in which shall be recorded (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder and any Note evidencing such Loan, the Type thereof and each Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrowers to each Lender hereunder and (iii) both the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrowers and each Lender’s share thereof.

(c) The accounts of each Lender and the entries made in the Register maintained pursuant to Sections 2.5(a) and (b), respectively, shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrowers therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain the Register or any such account, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay (with applicable interest) the Loans made to the Borrowers by such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

- 29 -

(d) The Borrowers agree that they will execute and deliver to each Lender upon such Lender’s request therefor a promissory note of the Borrowers evidencing any Term Loans or Revolving Loans, as the case may be, of such Lender, substantially in the form of Exhibit D-1 or D-2, respectively, with appropriate insertions as to date and principal amount.

Section 2.6. Conversions/Continuations. So long as no Default or Event of Default is in existence, the Borrowers shall have the option to convert on any Business Day all or a portion at least equal to the applicable Minimum Borrowing Amount of the outstanding principal amount of the Loans owing pursuant to a single Facility (other than under the Swingline Facility, with all Swingline Loans to at all times be maintained as Base Rate Loans) into a Borrowing or Borrowings pursuant to such Facility of another Type of Loan, provided that (i) except as otherwise provided in Section 2.10(b), Eurodollar Rate Loans may be converted into Base Rate Loans only on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto and no partial conversion of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall reduce the outstanding principal amount of the Eurodollar Rate Loans made pursuant to such Borrowing to less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount applicable thereto, (ii) Base Rate Loans may only be converted into Eurodollar Rate Loans if no Default or Event of Default is in existence on the date of the conversion, and (iii) Borrowings of Eurodollar Rate Loans resulting from this Section 2.6 shall be limited in numbers as provided in Section 2.2. So long as no Default or Event of Default shall be in existence, the Borrowers shall have the option to continue any Eurodollar Rate Loan as a Eurodollar Rate Loan by selecting a new Interest Period for such Eurodollar Rate Loan. Each new Interest Period selected under this Section shall commence on the last day of the immediately preceding Interest Period. If the Borrower shall fail to select in a timely manner a new Interest Period for any Eurodollar Rate Loan in accordance with this Section, such Loan will automatically, on the last day of the current Interest Period therefor, be continued as a Eurodollar Rate Loan with an Interest Period of 1 month. Each such conversion or continuation shall be effected by the Borrowers giving the Administrative Agent at its Notice Office, prior to 11:00 a.m., at least three Business Days’ (or one Business Day’s, in the case of a conversion into Base Rate Loans) prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) (each a “Notice of Conversion/Continuation”) specifying the Loans to be so converted, the Type of Loans to be converted into and, if to be converted into a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans, the Interest Period to be initially applicable thereto or, as the case may be, specifying the Loans to be so continued and the Interest Period applicable to such continuation. The Administrative Agent shall give each Lender prompt notice of any such proposed conversion or continuation affecting any of its Loans. Notwithstanding the foregoing or the provisions of Section 2.9, if a Default or an Event of Default is in existence at the time any Interest Period in respect of any Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans is to expire and the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders have determined that a continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans as such is not appropriate, such Loans may not be continued as Eurodollar Rate Loans but instead shall be automatically converted on the last day of such Interest Period into Base Rate Loans.

Section 2.7. Pro Rata Borrowings. All Borrowings of Term Loans and Revolving Loans under this Agreement shall be made by the Lenders pro rata on the basis of their Term Commitments or Revolving Commitments, respectively. It is understood that the obligations of the Lenders hereunder are several (and not joint), that no Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in its obligation to make Loans hereunder and that each Lender shall be obligated to make the Loans provided to be made by it hereunder, regardless of the failure of any other Lender to fulfill its commitments hereunder.

- 30 -

Section 2.8. Interest. (a) The unpaid principal amount of each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest from the date of the Borrowing thereof until maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum which shall at all times be the Applicable Margin plus the Base Rate in effect from time to time.

(b) The unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Rate Loan shall bear interest from the date of the Borrowing thereof until maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum which shall at all times be the Applicable Margin plus the relevant Eurodollar Rate.

(c) After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, and after acceleration, all Loans and all other Obligations (including, without limitation, the Letter of Credit Fee) shall bear interest until paid in full at a rate per annum that is two percent (2.0%) in excess of the rate otherwise applicable thereto; provided, however, that, Eurodollar Rate Loans outstanding at the end of an Interest Period therefor shall thereafter bear interest until paid in full at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate then in effect plus the Applicable Margin plus two percent (2.0%). If this Agreement or the other Credit Documents do not specify an interest rate for a particular Obligation, such Obligation shall, for purposes of this Section 2.8, be deemed to be a Base Rate Loan.

(d) Interest shall accrue from and including the date of any Borrowing to but excluding the date of any repayment thereof and shall be payable (i) in respect of each Base Rate Loan, quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing March 31, 2008, (ii) in respect of each Eurodollar Rate Loan, on the last day of each Interest Period applicable thereto and, in the case of an Interest Period of six months, on the date occurring every three months after the first day of such Interest Period during such Interest Period and (iii) in respect of each Loan (x) other than a Revolving Loan that is an Base Rate Loan, on any prepayment, conversion or continuation (on the amount so prepaid, converted or continued) and (y) at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) and, after such maturity, on demand.

(e) All computations of interest hereunder shall be made in accordance with Section 12.7.

(f) The Administrative Agent, upon determining the interest rate for any Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans for any Interest Period, shall promptly notify the Borrowers and the Lenders thereof.

- 31 -

Section 2.9. Interest Periods. (a) At the time the Borrowers give a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion in respect of the making of, or conversion into, a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans (in the case of the initial Interest Period applicable thereto) or prior to 11:00 a.m. on the third Business Day prior to the expiration of an Interest Period applicable to a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans, the Borrowers shall have the right to elect by giving the Administrative Agent written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of the Interest Period applicable to such Borrowing, which Interest Period shall, at the option of the Borrowers, be a one, two, three or six month period. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above:

(i) the initial Interest Period for any Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall commence on the date of such Borrowing (including the date of any conversion from a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans), and each Interest Period occurring thereafter in respect of such Borrowing shall commence on the day on which the next preceding Interest Period expires;

(ii) if any Interest Period begins on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at the end of such Interest Period, such Interest Period shall end on the last Business Day of such calendar month;

(iii) if any Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day which is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall expire on the next succeeding Business Day, provided that if any Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day which is not a Business Day but is a day of the month after which no further Business Day occurs in such month, such Interest Period shall expire on the next preceding Business Day;

(iv) no Interest Period shall extend beyond the applicable Final Maturity Date;

(v) no Interest Period with respect to any Borrowing of Term Loans may be elected that would extend beyond any date upon which a Term Loan Scheduled Repayment in respect of such Term Loans is required to be made if, after giving effect to the selection of such Interest Period, the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans maintained as Eurodollar Rate Loans with Interest Periods ending after such date would exceed the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans permitted to be outstanding after such Term Loan Scheduled Repayment; and

(vi) no Interest Period may be elected at any time when a Default or an Event of Default is then in existence.

(b) If upon the expiration of any Interest Period, the Borrowers have failed to (or may not) elect a new Interest Period to be applicable to the respective Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans as provided above, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have elected to continue such Borrowing for a new Interest Period of the same duration as the current Interest Period, effective as of the expiration date of such current Interest Period.

- 32 -

Section 2.10. Increased Costs, Illegality, etc. (a) In the event that (x) in the case of clause (i) below, the Administrative Agent or (y) in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) below, any Lender shall have determined (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto):

(i) on any date for determining the Eurodollar Rate for any Interest Period that, by reason of any changes arising after the date of this Agreement affecting the interbank Eurodollar market, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable interest rate on the basis provided for in the definition of Eurodollar Rate; or

(ii) at any time that such Lender shall incur increased costs or reductions in the amounts received or receivable hereunder in an amount which such Lender deems material with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Loans (other than any increased cost or reduction in the amount received or receivable resulting from the imposition of or a change in the rate of taxes or similar charges) because of any change in any applicable law, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order (or in the interpretation or administration thereof and including the introduction of any new law or governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order) (such as, for example, but not limited to, a change in official reserve requirements, but, in all events, excluding reserves required under Regulation D to the extent included in the computation of the Eurodollar Rate); or

(iii) at any time, that the making or continuance of any Eurodollar Rate Loan has become unlawful by compliance by such Lender in good faith with any change in any law, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order (or interpretation or application thereof);

then, and in any such event, such Lender (or the Administrative Agent in the case of clause (i) above) shall (x) on such date and (y) within ten Business Days of the date on which such event no longer exists give notice (by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Borrowers and to the Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the other Lenders). Thereafter (x) in the case of clause (i) above, Eurodollar Rate Loans shall no longer be available until such time as the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrowers and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice by the Administrative Agent no longer exist, and any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion given by the Borrowers with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans which have not yet been incurred shall be deemed rescinded by the Borrowers or, in the case of a Notice of Borrowing, shall, at the option of the Borrowers, be deemed converted into a Notice of Borrowing for Base Rate Loans to be made on the date of Borrowing contained in such Notice of Borrowing, (y) in the case of clause (ii) above, the Borrowers shall pay to such Lender, upon written demand therefor, such additional amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Lender in its sole discretion shall determine) as shall be required to compensate such Lender for such increased costs or reductions in amounts receivable hereunder (a written notice as to the additional amounts owed to such Lender, showing the basis for the calculation thereof, submitted to the Borrowers by such Lender shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) and (z) in the case of clause (iii) above, the Borrowers shall take one of the actions specified in Section 2.10(b) as promptly as possible and, in any event, within the time period required by law.

(b) At any time that any Eurodollar Rate Loan is affected by the circumstances described in Section 2.10(a)(ii) or (iii), the Borrowers may (and in the case of a Eurodollar Rate Loan affected pursuant to Section 2.10(a)(iii) the Borrowers shall) either (i) if the affected Eurodollar Rate Loan is then being made pursuant to a Borrowing, by giving the Administrative Agent telephonic

- 33 -

notice (confirmed promptly in writing) thereof on the same date that the Borrowers were notified by a Lender pursuant to Section 2.10(a)(ii) or (iii), cancel said Borrowing or convert the related Notice of Borrowing into one requesting a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, or (ii) if the affected Eurodollar Rate Loan is then outstanding, upon at least one Business Day’s notice to the Administrative Agent, require the affected Lender to convert each such Eurodollar Rate Loan into a Base Rate Loan, provided that if more than one Lender is affected at any time, then all affected Lenders must be treated the same pursuant to this Section 2.10(b).

(c) If any Lender shall have determined that after the Closing Date a Change in Law occurs has or would have the effect of reducing by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material the rate of return on such Lender’s or holding company’s capital or assets as a consequence of its commitments or obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or holding company could have achieved but for such adoption, effectiveness, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time, within 15 days after demand by such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrowers shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or holding company for such reduction. Each Lender, upon determining in good faith that any additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this Section 2.10(c), will give prompt written notice thereof to the Borrowers, which notice shall set forth the basis of the calculation of such additional amounts, although the failure to give any such notice shall not release or diminish any of the Borrowers’ obligations to pay additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.10(c) upon the subsequent receipt of such notice.

- 34 -

Section 2.11. Compensation. The Borrowers shall compensate each Lender, upon its written request (which request shall set forth the basis for requesting and the method of calculating such compensation), for all reasonable losses, expenses and liabilities (including, without limitation, any loss, expense or liability incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds required by such Lender to fund its Eurodollar Rate Loans) which such Lender may sustain: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by such Lender or the Administrative Agent) a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion (whether or not withdrawn by the Borrowers or deemed withdrawn pursuant to (a)); (ii) if any repayment or conversion of any of its Eurodollar Rate Loans occurs on a date which is not the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto; (iii) if any prepayment of any of its Eurodollar Rate Loans is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by the Borrowers; or (iv) as a consequence of (x) any other default by the Borrowers to repay its Eurodollar Rate Loans when required by the terms of this Agreement or (y) an election made pursuant to Section 2.10(b).

Section 2.12. Change of Lending Office. Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.10(a)(ii) or (iii), Section 3.5 or Section 5.4 with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Borrowers, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another lending office for any Loans affected by such event, provided that such designation is made on such terms that such Lender and its lending office suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, with the object of avoiding the consequence of the event giving rise to the operation of any such Section. Nothing in this Section 2.12 shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrowers or the right of any Lender provided in Section 2.10 or Section 5.4.

Section 2.13. Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender is owed increased costs or additional amounts, or the Borrowers receive notice from any Lender or the Administrative Agent, under Section 2.10, Section 3.5 or Section 5.4, or any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender, then the Borrowers shall have the right, unless such Lender has theretofore removed or cured the conditions which resulted in the obligation to pay such increased costs or additional amounts or which caused it to be a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender, to replace in its entirety such Lender (the “Replaced Lender”), on ten Business Days’ (or three Business Days’, in the case of the replacement of a Non-Consenting Lender) prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and such Replaced Lender, with one or more other Persons (collectively, the “Replacement Lender”) reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and, to the extent required by Section 12.4(b), reasonably acceptable to the Borrowers (which acceptance in either case shall not be unreasonably withheld); provided, that: (i) at the time of any replacement pursuant to this Section 2.13, the Replaced Lender and the Replacement Lender shall enter into one or more Assignment Agreements, substantially in the form of Exhibit E (appropriately completed), pursuant to which the Replacement Lender shall acquire all of the Commitments (including all participation interests in Letters of Credit) and outstanding Loans of the Replaced Lender and, in connection therewith, shall pay to the Replaced Lender in respect thereof an amount equal to the sum of (a) an amount equal to the principal of, and all accrued but unpaid interest on, all outstanding Loans of the Replaced Lender and (b) an amount equal to all accrued, but theretofore unpaid, Fees owing to the Replaced Lender pursuant to Section 4.1 and (c) any other amounts payable to the Replaced Lender under this Agreement (including, without limitation, amounts payable under Section 2.11) and (ii) a Defaulting Lender shall be a Replaced Lender only to the extent not prohibited by law. Upon the execution of the respective assignment documentation, the payment of amounts referred to in the preceding sentence and, if so requested by the Replacement Lender, delivery to the Replacement

- 35 -

Lender of appropriate Notes executed by the Borrowers, the Replacement Lender shall become a Lender hereunder, and the Replaced Lender shall cease to constitute a Lender hereunder, except with respect to indemnification provisions arising under this Agreement, which shall survive as to such Replaced Lender.

Section 2.14. Incremental Facility. (a) Upon notice to the Administrative Agent (whereupon the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders), at any time after the Closing Date, the Borrowers may from time to time request (i) additional Commitments under the Term Facility (each an “Incremental Term Commitment” and all of them, collectively, the “Incremental Term Commitments”) or (ii) increases in the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments (each such increase, an “Incremental Revolving Commitment” and, together with the Incremental Term Commitments, the “Incremental Commitments”); provided that (x) after giving effect to any such addition, the aggregate amount of Incremental Commitments that have been added pursuant to this Section 2.14 shall not exceed $25,000,000, (y) any such addition or increase shall be in an amount of not less than $10,000,000 and (z) there shall be not more than two (2) such increases.

(b) Any Loans made in respect of any Incremental Revolving Commitments shall be made by increasing the Total Revolving Commitment with the same terms (including pricing) as the existing Revolving Loans (each, a “Revolving Commitment Increase”). Any Loans made in respect of any Incremental Term Commitments (the “Incremental Term Loans”) may be made, at the option of the Borrowers, by either (i) increasing the Total Term Commitment with the same terms (including pricing) as the existing Term Loans, or (ii) creating a new tranche of terms loans (an “Incremental Term Loan Tranche”); provided that any Incremental Term Loan Tranche (A) shall not have a final maturity earlier than the Term Facility Final Maturity Date or a weighted average life which is shorter than the then remaining average life of the Term Loans, (B) shall rank pari passu in right of payment and of security (including Guaranties) with the Revolving Loans and the Term Loans and (C) shall have such other terms and provisions, to the extent not consistent with the Term Loans, as are reasonably satisfactory to the Joint Lead Arrangers.

(c) Each notice from the Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.14 shall set forth the requested amount and proposed terms of the Incremental Commitments. Incremental Term Loans (or any portion thereof) may be made, and Revolving Commitment Increases may be provided, by any existing Lender or by any other bank, financial institution or other investing entity (any such bank, financial institution or other investing entity, an “Incremental Lender”), in each case on terms permitted in this Section 2.14 and otherwise on terms reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, provided that the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of a Revolving Commitment Increase, the Letter of Credit Issuer and the Swingline Lender) shall have consented (not to be unreasonably withheld) to such Lender's or Incremental Lender's, as the case may be, making such Incremental Term Loans or providing such Revolving Commitment Increase if such consent would be required under Section 12.4 for an assignment of Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, to such Lender or Incremental Lender, as the case may be. No Lender shall be obligated to provide any Incremental Term Loans or Revolving Commitment Increases, unless it so agrees. Any Incremental Commitments shall become Commitments (or in the case of any Revolving Commitment Increase to be provided by an existing Revolving Lender, an increase in such Revolving Lender's Revolving Commitment) under this Agreement pursuant to an amendment (an “Incremental Facility Amendment”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Credit Documents, executed by the Borrowers, each Lender agreeing to provide such

- 36 -

Commitment, if any, each Incremental Lender, if any, and the Administrative Agent. An Incremental Facility Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to any Credit Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.14. At the time of the sending of such notice, the Borrowers (in consultation with the Administrative Agent) shall specify the time period within which each Lender is requested to respond (which shall in no event be less than ten Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to the Lenders). Each Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent within such time period whether or not it agrees to provide an Incremental Commitment and, if so, whether by an amount equal to, greater than, or less than its pro rata share of such requested increase (which shall be calculated on the basis of the amount of the funded and unfunded exposure under all the Facilities held by each Lender). Any Lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to provide an Incremental Commitment. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers and each Lender of the Lenders' responses to each request made hereunder. To achieve the full amount of a requested increase, the Borrowers may, after first offering such increase to the existing Lenders as provided above, invite Incremental Lenders to become Lenders pursuant to a joinder agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and its counsel.

(d) If any Incremental Commitments are added in accordance with this Section 2.14, the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers shall determine the effective date (the “Incremental Commitments Effective Date”) and the final allocation of such addition; provided, that any existing Lender electing to participate in the proposed Incremental Commitments shall have the right to participate in the proposed increase or addition on a pro rata basis in accordance with such Lender’s Revolving Commitment (in the case of an increase of the Revolving Commitments) or the outstanding Term Loans held by such Lender (in the case of Incremental Term Commitments) as of the Business Day prior to the Incremental Commitments Effective Date. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrowers and the Lenders of the final allocation of such addition and the Incremental Commitments Effective Date. As a condition precedent to such addition, the Borrowers shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of the Borrowers dated as of the Incremental Commitments Effective Date signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrowers certifying that, before and after giving effect to such increase, (i) the representations and warranties contained in Section 7 and the other Credit Documents are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Incremental Commitments Effective Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they shall have been true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date and (ii) no Default or Event of Default exists before or after giving effect to such addition. On each Incremental Commitments Effective Date, each Lender or Incremental Lender which is providing an Incremental Commitment (i) shall become a “Lender” for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, (ii) shall have, as applicable, an Incremental Term Commitment and/or an Incremental Revolving Commitment which shall become “Commitments” hereunder and (iii) in the case of an Incremental Term Commitment, shall make an Incremental Term Loan to the Borrowers in a principal amount equal to such Incremental Term Commitment, and such Incremental Term Loan shall be a “Term Loan” for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents (except that the interest rate applicable to any Incremental Term Loan under an Incremental Term Loan Tranche may be different).

- 37 -

(e) Upon each Revolving Commitment Increase pursuant to this Section 2.14, (i) each Revolving Lender immediately prior to such increase will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assigned to each existing Revolving Lender, if any, and each Incremental Lender, if any, in each case providing a portion of such Revolving Commitment Increase (each an “Incremental Revolving Lender”), and each such Incremental Revolving Lender will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assumed, a portion of such Revolving Lender's risk participation hereunder in outstanding Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans such that, after giving effect to such Revolving Commitment Increase and each such deemed assignment and assumption of such risk participations, the percentage of the aggregate outstanding (A) risk participations hereunder in Letters of Credit and (B) risk participations in Swingline Loans, in each case, held by each Revolving Lender (including each such Incremental Revolving Lender) will equal such Revolving Lender's pro rata share of the outstanding Revolving Loans based on each such Revolving Lender's Revolving Percentage immediately after giving effect to such Revolving Commitment Increase and (ii) if, on the date of such Revolving Commitment Increase, there are any Revolving Loans outstanding, the Administrative Agent shall take those steps which it deems, in its sole discretion, necessary and appropriate to result in each Revolving Lender (including each Incremental Revolving Lender) having a pro rata share of the outstanding Revolving Loans based on each such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Percentage immediately after giving effect to such Revolving Commitment Increase, provided that any prepayment made in connection with the taking of any such steps shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the Revolving Loans being prepaid and any costs incurred by any Lender in accordance with Section 2.11. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree that the minimum borrowing, pro-rata borrowing and pro-rata payment requirements contained elsewhere in this Agreement shall not apply to any transaction that may be effected pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence.

(f) This Section 2.14 shall supersede any provisions in Section 12.12 to the contrary.

Section 2.15. Borrowers’ Representative. CHI hereby appoints ABX as, and ABX hereby agrees to act under this Agreement as, the agent, attorney-in-fact and legal representative of the Borrowers for all purposes hereunder, including, without limitation, requesting Borrowings and Letters of Credit, issuing Notices of Borrowing and Notices of Conversion/Continuation and receiving account statements and other notices and communications to the Borrowers (or either of them) from the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer or any Lender. Accordingly, the parties agree that any and all actions to be taken hereunder by the Borrowers may be taken by ABX for and on behalf of the Borrowers, and any and all notices and communications permitted or required to be made by the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer or any Lender hereunder to the Borrowers, shall be deemed made to each of the Borrowers if delivered to ABX. The Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer and each Lender may rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, on any Notice of Borrowing, Notice of Conversion/Continuation, request for a Letter of Credit, disbursement instruction, report, information or any other notice or communication made or given by ABX, whether in its own name, on behalf of CHI or on behalf of “the Borrowers”, and none of the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer or any Lender shall have any obligation to make any inquiry or request any confirmation from or on behalf of CHI as to the binding effect on it of any such notice, request, instruction, report, information, other notice or communications. ABX may from time to time tender to the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer and the Lenders, representations or performance of covenants hereunder and take actions in respect of other matters on behalf of the Borrowers, and any such representations, performance or actions by ABX, if accepted by the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer or any such Lender, as the case may be, shall (irrespective of whether the particular matter is otherwise authorized elsewhere herein) be conclusively deemed done with the authorization of and on behalf of CHI, as the circumstances and the specific action taken may indicate. The Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer

- 38 -

and each of the Lenders may in all cases rely on communications from, and representations and actions taken by, ABX as though given, delivered, made or taken by or from the Borrowers, and all such communications, representations and actions shall be binding upon CHI.

Section 2.16. Joint and Several Liability.

(a) Each of the Borrowers acknowledges and agrees that (i) it is a co-borrower hereunder and shall be jointly and severally, with the other Borrower, directly and primarily liable for the Obligations regardless of which Borrower actually receives Loans or other extensions of credit hereunder or the amount of such Loans or other extensions of credit received or the manner in which the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer and/or any Lender accounts for such Loans or other extensions of credit on its books and records, (ii) each of the Borrowers shall have the obligations of co-maker and shall be primary obligors with respect to all Loans, the Notes, the Letters of Credit and the other Obligations, it being agreed that such extensions of credit to each Borrower inure to the benefit of both Borrowers, and (iii) the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer and each of the Lenders is relying on such joint and several liability of the Borrowers as co-makers in extending the Loans and issuing the Letters of Credit hereunder. Each Borrower’s obligations with respect to Loans made to it or with respect to any Letters of Credit issued for its account, and each Borrower’s obligations arising as a result of the joint and several liability of the Borrowers hereunder, with respect to Loans made to the other Borrower hereunder or with respect to any Letters of Credit issued for the account of the other Borrower hereunder, shall be separate and distinct obligations, but all such Obligations shall be primary obligations of each Borrower. Each Borrower hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that upon default in the payment when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of any Obligation payable to the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer or any Lender, each such Borrower will forthwith pay the same, without notice of demand.

(b) Each Borrower’s obligations arising as a result of the joint and several liability of the Borrowers hereunder with respect to Obligations of the other Borrower hereunder shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be unconditional irrespective of (i) the validity or enforceability, avoidance or subordination of the Obligations of the other Borrower or of any Note or other document evidencing all or any part of the Obligations of the other Borrower, (ii) the absence of any attempt to collect the Obligations from the other Borrower, or any other security therefor, or the absence of any other action to enforce the same, (iii) the waiver, consent, extension, forbearance or granting of any indulgence by the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer or any Lender with respect to any provision of any instrument evidencing the Obligations of the other Borrower, or any part thereof, or any other agreement now or hereafter executed by the other Borrower and delivered to the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer or any Lender, (iv) the failure by the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer or any Lender to take any steps to perfect and maintain its security interest in, or to preserve its rights to, any security for the Obligations of the other Borrower, (v) any borrowing or grant of a security interest by the other Borrower, as debtors-in-possession under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code, (vi) the disallowance of all or any portion of the Administrative Agent’s, the Letter of Credit Issuer’s or any Lender’s claim(s) for the repayment of the Obligations of the other Borrower under Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code, or (vii) any other circumstances which might constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of the other Borrower.

- 39 -

(c) With respect to each Borrower’s obligations arising as a result of the joint and several liability of the Borrowers hereunder with respect to Obligations any of the other Borrower hereunder, each Borrower waives, until the Obligations shall have been paid in full in cash and this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall have terminated, any right to enforce any right of subrogation or any remedy which the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer or any Lender now has or may hereafter have against the other Borrower, any endorser or any guarantor of all or any part of the Obligations, and any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security or collateral given to the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer or any Lender to secure payment of the Obligations.

(d) No payment or payments made by either of the Borrowers or any other Person or received or collected by the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer or any Lender from either of the Borrowers or any other Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any set-off-or appropriation or application at any time or from time to time in reduction of or in payment of the Obligations shall be deemed (except to the extent Obligations are satisfied) to modify, release or otherwise affect the liability of each Borrower under this Agreement, which shall remain liable for the Obligations until the Obligations are paid in full in cash and this Agreement is terminated.

SECTION 3. LETTERS OF CREDIT.

Section 3.1. Letters of Credit. (a) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Borrowers may request the Letter of Credit Issuer at any time and from time to time on any Business Day on or after the Closing Date and prior to the Revolving Facility Final Maturity Date to issue, for the account of the Borrowers and in support of (i) obligations of the Borrowers and/or their Subsidiaries, contingent or otherwise, incurred in the Ordinary Course of Business of such Persons, (ii) obligations of the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries under insurance policies or related to self-insurance obligations, (iii) obligations of the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries related to surety bonds and (iv) such other obligations of the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries to any other Person that are reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, and subject to and upon the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Letter of Credit Issuer agrees to issue from time to time, irrevocable letters of credit in such form as may be approved by the Letter of Credit Issuer and the Administrative Agent (each such letter of credit, a “Letter of Credit” and collectively, the “Letters of Credit”). Letters of Credit listed on Part I of Annex 3.1 issued under the Existing Cargo Holdings Credit Agreement (“Existing Cargo Letters of Credit”) shall automatically be deemed to constitute and continue as Letters of Credit issued hereunder on the Closing Date. Each letter of credit listed on Part II of Annex 3.1 that was issued under the Existing ABX Credit Agreement and remains in effect after the Closing Date (each, an “Existing ABX Letter of Credit”) shall be cash collateralized until such time as such Existing ABX Letter of Credit is replaced with a Letter of Credit issued under this Agreement.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) each Letter of Credit shall be denominated in Dollars, (ii) no Letter of Credit shall be issued, the Stated Amount of which, when added to the Letter of Credit Outstandings (exclusive of Unpaid Drawings which are repaid on the date of, and prior to or at the time of, the issuance of the relevant Letter of Credit) at such time, would exceed either (x) $75,000,000 or (y) when added to the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans then outstanding, an amount equal to the Total Revolving Commitment at such time (after giving effect to any reductions to the Total Revolving Commitment on such date), and (iii) each Letter of Credit shall have an expiry date occurring not later than the earlier of (x) one year after such Letter of Credit’s date of issuance although any Letter of Credit may be automatically renewable for successive periods,

- 40 -

which shall in no event extend beyond the date referred to in clause (y) below, of up to 12 months (unless notice of non-renewal is given to the Borrowers by the Letter of Credit Issuer, or such Letter of Credit does not include an automatic renewal provision) and (z) unless cash collateralized ten (10) Business Days prior to the Revolving Facility Final Maturity Date, on terms acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Letter of Credit Issuer, the Revolving Facility Final Maturity Date.

Section 3.2. Letter of Credit Requests; Notices of Issuance.

The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Lender of each Letter of Credit Request.

(b) The Letter of Credit Issuer shall, on the date of each issuance of a Letter of Credit by it, give the Administrative Agent, each Revolving Lender and the Borrowers written notice of the issuance of such Letter of Credit, accompanied by a copy to the Administrative Agent of the Letter of Credit or Letters of Credit issued by it.

Section 3.3. Agreement to Repay Letter of Credit Drawings. (a) The Borrowers hereby agree to reimburse the Letter of Credit Issuer (whether with its own funds or with the proceeds of Revolving Loans), by making payment to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the Payment Office, for any payment or disbursement made by the Letter of Credit Issuer under any Letter of Credit (each such amount so paid or disbursed until reimbursed, an “Unpaid Drawing”), not later than 2:00 p.m., on the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrowers receive notice from the Letter of Credit Issuer of such Unpaid Drawing, with interest on the amount so paid or disbursed by such Letter of Credit Issuer, to the extent not reimbursed prior to 2:00 p.m. on the date of such payment or disbursement, from and including the date paid or disbursed to but not including the date the Letter of Credit Issuer is reimbursed therefor at a rate per annum which shall be the rate then applicable to Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans pursuant to Section 2.8(a) (plus an additional 2% per annum if not reimbursed by the third Business Day after the date of such payment or disbursement), such interest also to be payable on demand.

(b) The Borrowers’ obligation under this Section 3.3 to reimburse the Letter of Credit Issuer with respect to Unpaid Drawings (including, in each case, interest thereon) shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment which the Borrowers may have or have had against the Letter of Credit Issuer, the Administrative Agent or any Lender, including, without limitation, any defense based upon the failure of any drawing under a Letter of Credit to conform to the terms of the Letter of Credit or any non-application or misapplication by the beneficiary of the proceeds of such drawing; provided that, to the extent the Borrowers have derived no benefit therefrom, the Borrowers shall not be obligated to reimburse the Letter of Credit Issuer for any wrongful payment made by such Letter of Credit Issuer under a Letter of Credit as a result of acts or omissions constituting willful misconduct or gross negligence on the part of such Letter of Credit Issuer.

Section 3.4. Letter of Credit Participations. (a) Immediately upon the issuance by the Letter of Credit Issuer of any Letter of Credit, the Letter of Credit Issuer shall be deemed to have sold and transferred to each Revolving Lender, and each Revolving Lender (each a “Participant”) shall be deemed irrevocably and unconditionally to have purchased and received from such Letter of Credit Issuer, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation, to the extent of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Percentage, in such Letter of Credit, each substitute letter of credit, each drawing made thereunder and the obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement with respect thereto (although Letter of Credit Fees shall be payable directly to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Revolving Lenders as provided in Section 4.1(b) and the Participants shall have no right to receive any portion of any Fronting Fees) and any security therefor or guaranty pertaining thereto. Upon any change in the Revolving Commitments of the Revolving Lenders pursuant to Section 12.4(b), it is hereby agreed that, with respect to all then outstanding Letters of Credit and Unpaid Drawings, there shall be an automatic adjustment to the participations pursuant to this Section 3.4 to reflect the new Revolving Percentages of the assigning and assignee Revolving Lender.

(b) In determining whether to pay under any Letter of Credit, the Letter of Credit Issuer shall not have any obligation relative to the Participants other than to determine that any documents required to be delivered under such Letter of Credit have been delivered and that they appear to comply on their face with the requirements of such Letter of Credit. Any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Letter of Credit Issuer under or in connection with any Letter of Credit, if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall not create for the Letter of Credit Issuer any resulting liability.

(c) In the event that the Letter of Credit Issuer makes any payment under any Letter of Credit and the Borrowers shall not have reimbursed such amount in full to the Letter of Credit Issuer pursuant to Section 3.3(a), the Letter of Credit Issuer shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Participant of such failure, and each Participant shall promptly and unconditionally pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer, the amount of such Participant’s Revolving Percentage of such payment in Dollars and in same day funds. If the Administrative Agent so notifies any Participant required to fund a payment under a Letter of Credit prior to 11:00 a.m. on any Business Day, such Participant shall make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer such Participant’s Revolving Percentage of the amount of such payment on such Business Day in same day funds. If and to the extent such Participant shall not have so made its Revolving Percentage of the amount of such payment available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer, such Participant agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer, forthwith on demand such amount, together with interest thereon, for each day from such date until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer at the overnight Federal Funds Effective Rate. The failure of any Participant to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer its Revolving Percentage of any payment under any Letter of Credit shall not relieve any other Participant of its obligation hereunder to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer its Revolving Percentage of any payment under any Letter of Credit on the date required, as specified above, but no Participant shall be responsible for the failure of any other Participant to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer such other Participant’s Revolving Percentage of any such payment.

- 42 -

(d) Whenever the Letter of Credit Issuer receives a payment of a Reimbursement Obligation as to which the Administrative Agent has received for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer any payments from the Participants pursuant to Section 3.4(c), the Letter of Credit Issuer shall pay to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to each Participant which has paid its Revolving Percentage thereof, in Dollars and in same day funds, an amount equal to such Participant’s Revolving Percentage of the principal amount thereof and interest thereon accruing after the purchase of the respective participations.

(e) The obligations of the Participants to make payments to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer with respect to Letters of Credit shall be irrevocable and not subject to counterclaim, set-off or other defense or any other qualification or exception whatsoever and shall be made in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement under all circumstances, including, without limitation, any of the following circumstances:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents;

(ii) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right which the Borrowers may have at any time against a beneficiary named in a Letter of Credit, any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such transferee may be acting), the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer, any Lender, or other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transactions (including any underlying transaction between the Borrowers and the beneficiary named in any such Letter of Credit);

(iii) any draft, certificate or other document presented under the Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;

(iv) the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms of any of the Credit Documents; or

(v) the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default.

Section 3.5. Increased Costs; Illegality. (a) If a Change of Law occurs after the Closing Date which shall either (i) impose, modify or make applicable any reserve, deposit, capital adequacy or similar requirement against Letters of Credit issued by the Letter of Credit Issuer or such Lender’s participation therein, or (ii) shall impose on the Letter of Credit Issuer or any Lender any other conditions affecting this Agreement, any Letter of Credit or such Lender’s participation therein; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to the Letter of Credit Issuer or such Lender of issuing, maintaining or participating in any Letter of Credit, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by the Letter of Credit Issuer or such Lender hereunder (other than any increased cost or reduction in the amount received or receivable resulting from the imposition of or a change in the rate of taxes or similar charges), then, upon demand to the Borrowers by the Letter of Credit Issuer or such Lender (a copy of which notice shall be sent by the Letter of Credit Issuer or such Lender to the Administrative Agent), the Borrowers shall pay to the Letter of Credit Issuer or such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate the Letter of Credit Issuer or such Lender for such increased cost or reduction. A certificate submitted to the Borrowers by the Letter of Credit Issuer or any Lender, as the case may be (a copy of

- 43 -

which certificate shall be sent by the Letter of Credit Issuer or such Lender to the Administrative Agent), setting forth the basis for the determination of such additional amount or amounts necessary to compensate the Letter of Credit Issuer or any such Lender as aforesaid shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers absent manifest error, although the failure to deliver any such certificate shall not release or diminish any of the Borrowers’ obligations to pay additional amounts pursuant to this Section.

Following the repayment in full of the Term Loans, each mandatory repayment required to be made pursuant to Section 5.2(a) (iii), (iv), (v) or (vi) shall thereafter be applied to the repayment of the Revolving Loans (without any permanent reduction in the Revolving Commitment of any Lender).

- 47 -

(ii) With respect to each prepayment of Loans required by Section 5.2, the Borrowers may designate the Types of Loans which are to be prepaid and the specific Borrowing(s) under the affected Facility pursuant to which made, provided that (i) the Borrowers shall first so designate all Base Rate Loans and Eurodollar Rate Loans under an affected Facility with Interest Periods ending on the date of repayment prior to designating any other Eurodollar Rate Loans and (ii) each prepayment of any Loans made pursuant to a Borrowing shall be applied pro rata among such Loans.

Section 5.3. Method and Place of Payment. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all payments under this Agreement shall be made to the Administrative Agent for the ratable (based on its pro rata share) account of the Lenders entitled thereto, not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date when due and shall be made in immediately available funds and in lawful money of the United States of America at the Payment Office, it being understood that prior written notice by the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent to make a payment from the funds in the Borrowers’ account at the Payment Office shall constitute the making of such payment to the extent of such funds held in such account. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. Any payments made by the Borrowers under this Agreement which are made later than 2:00 p.m. shall be deemed to have been made by the Borrowers on the next succeeding Business Day. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, with respect to payments of principal, interest shall be payable during such extension at the applicable rate in effect immediately prior to such extension.

Section 5.4. Net Payments. (a) All payments made by the Borrowers hereunder, under any Note or any other Credit Document, will be made without setoff, counterclaim or other defense. Except as provided for in this Section 5.4(a), all such payments will be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, any present or future taxes, levies, imposts, duties, fees, assessments or other charges of whatever nature now or hereafter imposed by any jurisdiction or by any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (but excluding, with respect to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other recipient of any such payment, any tax imposed on or measured by the net income (or any franchise tax based on net or gross income) of such recipient pursuant to the laws of the United States or of the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein) under which such recipient is organized or in which the principal office or applicable lending office of such recipient is located) and all interest, penalties or similar liabilities with respect thereto (collectively, “Taxes”). If any Taxes are so levied or imposed, the Borrowers agree to pay the full amount of such Taxes and such additional amounts (after payment of all Taxes) as may be necessary so that every payment of all amounts due hereunder, under any Note or under any other Credit Document, after withholding or deduction for or on account of any Taxes, will not be less than the amount provided for herein or in such Note or in such other Credit Document, provided, however, that the Borrowers shall not be required to increase any such amounts payable to any Lender with respect to any Taxes (i) that are attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the requirements of Section 5.4(b) or (ii) that are United States withholding taxes imposed on amounts payable to such Lender at the time the Lender becomes a party to this Agreement (or designates a new lending office), except to the extent that such Lender (or its assignor, if any) was entitled, at the time of assignment (or designation of a new lending office), to receive additional amounts from the Borrowers with respect to such Taxes pursuant to this Section 5.4(a). The Borrowers will furnish to the Administrative Agent within 45 days after the date the payment of any Taxes, or any withholding or deduction on account thereof, is due pursuant to applicable law certified copies of tax receipts

- 48 -

evidencing such payment by the Borrowers. The Borrowers will indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and reimburse the Administrative Agent or such Lender upon its written request, for the amount of any Taxes levied or imposed and paid or withheld by the Administrative Agent or such Lender.

(b) Each Lender that is not a United States person as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “Non-U.S. Lender”) agrees to deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent (i) on or prior to the date the Lender becomes a Lender two accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI (or successor forms) certifying to such Lender’s entitlement to a complete exemption from United States withholding tax (or, upon the written consent of the Borrowers, a reduced rate of withholding tax) with respect to payments to be made under this Agreement and under any Note and under any other Credit Document, or (ii) if the Non-U.S. Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code and is claiming an exemption from U.S. withholding tax under Sections 871(h), 881(c) and/or 1441(c)(9) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest,” (x) a duly executed certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G (any such certificate, an “Exemption Certificate”) and (y) two accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI (or successor forms). In addition, each Non-U.S. Lender agrees that from time to time upon the reasonable request by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent when a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders the previous certification obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, it will deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent two new accurate and complete original signed copies of the relevant form or Exemption Certificate, as the case may be, and such other forms as may be required in order to conform or establish the entitlement of such Non-U.S. Lender to a continued complete exemption from United States withholding tax with respect to payments under this Agreement and any Note, or it shall immediately notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent of its inability to deliver any such form or Exemption Certificate. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 5.4, a Non-U.S. Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this Section 5.4(b) that such Non-U.S. Lender is not legally able to deliver.

SECTION 11. THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT.

Section 11.1. Appointment. Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints SunTrust Bank as Administrative Agent of such Lender (such term to include for purposes of this Section 11, SunTrust Bank acting as Administrative Agent) to act as specified herein and in the other Credit Documents, and each such Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes SunTrust Bank as the Administrative Agent for such Lender, to (i) enter into the Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents on behalf of the Lenders and (ii) take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and to exercise such powers and

- 82 -

perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Administrative Agent agrees to act as such upon the express conditions contained in this Section 11. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein or in the other Credit Documents, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent. The provisions of this Section 11 are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and, except as provided in Section 11.9, no Credit Party shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions hereof. In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall act solely as agent of the Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation or relationship of agency or trust with or for any Credit Party.

Section 11.2. Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Credit Document by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care except to the extent otherwise required by Section 11.3.

Section 11.3. Exculpatory Provisions. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact 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 or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective officers contained in this Agreement, any other Credit Document, any Purchase Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any Purchase Document or for any failure of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective officers to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Administrative Agent shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement, or to inspect the properties, books or records of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible to any Lender for the effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectibility or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Credit Document or for any representations, warranties, recitals or statements made herein or therein or made in any written or oral statement or in any financial or other statements, instruments, reports, certificates or any other documents in connection herewith or therewith furnished or made by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders or by or on behalf of Holdings and its Subsidiaries to the Administrative Agent or any Lender or be required to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, provisions, covenants or agreements contained herein or therein or as to the use of the proceeds of the Loans or of the existence or possible existence of any Default or Event of Default.

Section 11.4. Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative 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, facsimile transmission, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have

- 83 -

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 Credit Parties), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Credit Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders.

Section 11.5. Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or the Borrowers or any other Credit Party referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders, provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative 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 in the best interests of the Lenders.

Section 11.6. Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates have made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, assets, operations, property, financial and other conditions, prospects and creditworthiness of Holdings and its Subsidiaries and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, assets, operations, property, financial and other conditions, prospects and creditworthiness of Holdings and its Subsidiaries. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, assets, property, financial and other conditions, prospects or creditworthiness of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries which may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates.

- 84 -

Section 11.7. Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such ratably according to their respective percentages of Loans and Commitments used in determining Required Lenders at such time (with such percentages to be determined as if there are no Defaulting Lenders), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, reasonable expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time (including without limitation at any time following the payment of the Obligations) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or the transactions contemplated hereby or any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing, but only to the extent that any of the foregoing is not paid by Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries; provided that no Lender shall be liable to the Administrative Agent for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements to the extent resulting solely from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section 11.7 shall survive the payment of all Obligations.

Section 11.8. The Administrative Agent and Joint Lead Arrangers in their Individual Capacity. The Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers and their respective Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries as though the Administrative Agent and the Joint Lead Arrangers were not the Administrative Agent hereunder or the Joint Lead Arrangers with respect to the Facilities. With respect to the Loans made by it and all Obligations owing to it, the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity.

Section 11.9. Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign as the Administrative Agent upon 20 days’ notice to the Borrowers and the Lenders. The Required Lenders shall appoint a successor Administrative Agent for the Lenders (which may be an existing Lender) subject to prior approval, so long as no Default or Event of Default then exists, by the Borrowers (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld), whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent, and the term “Administrative Agent” shall include such successor agent effective upon its appointment, and the resigning Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and duties as the Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as the Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 11 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement.

SECTION 12. MISCELLANEOUS.

Section 12.1. Payment of Expenses, etc. The Borrowers agree to: (i) whether or not the transactions herein contemplated are consummated, pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent and the Joint Lead Arrangers in connection with the syndication of the Facilities, the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and the documents and instruments referred to herein and therein and any amendment, waiver or consent relating hereto or thereto (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of Crowe & Dunlevy, special FAA counsel to the Administrative Agent, and Alston & Bird LLP, counsel to the Administrative Agent and

- 85 -

SunTrust Robinson Humphrey, Inc.) and the creation and perfection of the Liens created under the Security Documents; (ii) pay all out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers and each of the Lenders in connection with the enforcement (including pursuant to the administration of any bankruptcy proceeding relating to any Credit Party) or preservation of any rights under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and the documents and instruments referred to therein (including, without limitation, the fees and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer and for each of the Lenders), including such out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred during any refinancing, work-out or restructuring (pursuant to any insolvency or bankruptcy proceeding or otherwise) in respect of this Agreement, the Loans or Letters of Credit; (iii) pay and hold each of the Lenders harmless from and against any and all present and future stamp, court or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes or charges and other similar taxes with respect to the foregoing matters and save the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders and the Letter of Credit Issuer harmless from and against any and all liabilities with respect to or resulting from any delay or omission to pay such taxes; and (iv) indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer and each Lender, and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, representatives, agents, affiliates, trustees and investment advisors from and hold each of them harmless against any and all liabilities, obligations (including removal or remedial actions), losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements (including reasonable attorneys’ and consultants’ fees and disbursements) incurred by, imposed on or assessed against any of them as a result of, or arising out of, or in any way related to, or by reason of, (x) any investigation, litigation or other proceeding (whether or not the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer or any Lender is a party thereto and whether or not such investigation, litigation or other proceeding is brought by or on behalf of any Credit Party) related to the entering into and/or performance of this Agreement or any other Credit Document or the use of any Letter of Credit or the proceeds of any Loans hereunder or the consummation of the Acquisition or the Refinancing or any other transactions contemplated herein or in any other Credit Document or the exercise of any of their rights or remedies provided herein or in the other Credit Documents, or (y) the actual or alleged presence of Hazardous Materials in the air, surface water or groundwater or on the surface or subsurface of any Real Property at any time owned, leased or operated by either of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries, the generation, storage, transportation, handling or disposal of Hazardous Materials by Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries at any location, whether or not owned, leased or operated by Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries, the non-compliance by Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries with any Environmental Law (including applicable permits thereunder) applicable to any Real Property, or any Environmental Claim asserted against Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries or any Real Property at any time owned, leased or operated by Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries, including, in each case, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and other consultants incurred in connection with any such investigation, litigation or other proceeding (but excluding any losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses to the extent incurred by reason of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of, or the breach in bad faith of its commitments by, the Person to be indemnified (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision)). To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, pay or hold harmless the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer or any Lender set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy, the Borrowers agree to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the indemnified liabilities which is permissible under applicable law.

Section 12.2. Right of Setoff. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law or otherwise, and not by way of limitation of any such rights, during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent and each Lender is hereby authorized at any time or from time to time, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind to any Credit

- 86 -

Party or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by the Administrative Agent or such Lender (including, without limitation, by branches and agencies of the Administrative Agent or such Lender wherever located) to or for the credit or the account of any Credit Party against and on account of the Obligations and liabilities of such Credit Party then due and payable to the Administrative Agent or such Lender under this Agreement or under any of the other Credit Documents, including, without limitation, all interests in Obligations of such Credit Party purchased by such Lender pursuant to Section 12.6(b), and all other claims of any nature or description then due and payable arising out of or connected with this Agreement or any other Credit Document, irrespective of whether or not the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall have made any demand hereunder and although said deposits or Indebtedness owing by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, or any of them, shall be contingent or unmatured.

Section 12.3. Notices/Electronic Delivery of Information. (a) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including telecopier communication) and mailed, telecopied or delivered, if to a Credit Party, at the address specified opposite its signature below or in the other relevant Credit Documents, as the case may be; if to any Lender, at its address specified for such Lender on Annex 1.1A hereto; or, at such other address as shall be designated by any party in a written notice to the other parties hereto. All such notices and communications shall be mailed, telecopied or sent by overnight courier, and shall be effective when received.

(b) In addition to the foregoing, Holdings and the Borrowers may deliver documents, materials and other information required to be delivered pursuant to Section 8.1 (collectively, “Information”) in pdf format or any other electronic format acceptable to the Administrative Agent by e-mailing any such Information to an e-mail address of the Administrative Agent as specified by the Administrative Agent from time to time. The Administrative Agent will promptly provide such Information to the Lenders.

(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary (i) Holdings and the Borrowers shall deliver paper copies (which may include .pdf copies) of Information to the Administrative Agent if requested until a written request to cease delivering paper copies is given to Holdings and the Borrowers by the Administrative Agent and (ii) in every instance Holdings and the Borrowers shall be required to provide to the Administrative Agent a paper original of the Compliance Certificate required by Section 8.1(c).

Section 12.4. Benefit of Agreement. (a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto, provided that neither Holdings nor the Borrowers may assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of all the Lenders. Each Lender may, in accordance with applicable law, at any time grant participations in any of its rights hereunder or under any of the Notes to another financial institution or any fund that regularly invests in bank loans, provided that in the case of any such participation, the participant shall not have any rights under this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents (the participant’s rights against such Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreement executed by such Lender in favor of the participant relating thereto) and all amounts payable by the Borrowers hereunder shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation, except that the participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.10, Section 2.11, Section 3.5 and Section 5.4 of this Agreement to the extent

- 87 -

that such Lender would be entitled to such benefits if the participation had not been entered into or sold and the participant shall, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, be deemed to have the right of setoff in respect of its participation in amounts owing under this Agreement to the same extent as if the amount of its participation were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement provided that, in purchasing such participation, such participant shall be deemed to have agreed to share with the Lenders the proceeds thereof as provided in Section 12.6(b) as fully as if it were a Lender hereunder, and, provided, further, that no Lender shall transfer, grant or assign any participation under which the participant shall have rights to approve any amendment to or waiver of this Agreement or any other Credit Document except to the extent such amendment or waiver would (i) waive any Term Loan Scheduled Repayment or extend the final scheduled maturity of any Loan or Note in which such participant is participating (it being understood that any waiver of the application of any prepayment or the method of any application of any prepayment to, the amortization of the Term Loans shall not constitute a waiver of any Term Loan Scheduled Repayment or an extension of the final maturity date), or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or Fees thereon (except in connection with a waiver of the applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates), or reduce the principal amount thereof, or increase such participant’s participating interest in any Commitment over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or of a mandatory reduction in the Total Commitment, or a mandatory prepayment, shall not constitute a change in the terms of any Commitment), (ii) release Holdings or all or substantially all of the Subsidiary Guarantors from their obligations under their respective Guaranties except in accordance with the terms thereof, (iii) release all or substantially all of the Collateral except in accordance with the Credit Documents or (iv) consent to the assignment or transfer by Holdings or the Borrowers of any of their rights and obligations under this Agreement or any other Credit Document.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in accordance with applicable law at any time and from time to time, any Lender may assign all or a portion of its Loans and/or Commitments and its rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more other Persons with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of:

(i) the Borrowers, provided that no consent of the Borrowers shall be required (x) for an assignment of any Term Loan to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, (y) for an assignment of any Revolving Commitment to a Lender with a Revolving Commitment immediately prior to such assignment or (z) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

(ii) the Administrative Agent, provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment of any Term Loan to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; and

(iii) in the case of any assignment of any Revolving Commitment, the Letter of Credit Issuer.

Any assignment pursuant to this Section 12.4(b) need not be ratable as among the Term Loans and the Revolving Commitments of the assigning Lender except as provided in the next sentence. Unless the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent otherwise agree, no assignment pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall to the extent such assignment represents an assignment to an institution other than one or more Lenders or their Affiliates or an Approved Fund hereunder, be in an aggregate amount less than $1,000,000 unless the entire Commitment and Loans and other interests of the assigning Lender (and of all Lenders which are

- 88 -

Approved Funds managed by the same investment advisor as the assigning Lender) are so assigned. In the case of an assignment by a Lender to its CLO, the assigning Lender shall retain the sole right to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, provided that the Assignment Agreement between such Lender and such CLO may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of such CLO, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the third proviso to the second sentence of Section 12.4(a) that directly affects such CLO. If any Lender so sells or assigns all or a part of its interests hereunder or under the Notes, any reference in this Agreement or the Notes to such assigning Lender shall thereafter refer to such Lender and to the respective assignee to the extent of their respective interests, and the respective assignee shall have, to the extent of such assignment (unless otherwise provided therein), the same rights and benefits as it would if it were such assigning Lender. Each assignment pursuant to this Section 12.4(b) shall be effected by the assigning Lender and the assignee Lender executing an Assignment Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit E (appropriately completed) and either the assigning or the assignee Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent a nonrefundable assignment fee of $3,500. At the time of any assignment pursuant to this Section 12.4(b), (i) Annex 1.1A shall be deemed to be amended to reflect the Commitment of the respective assignee (which shall result in a direct reduction to the Commitment of the assigning Lender) and of the other Lenders, and (ii) if any such assignment occurs after the Closing Date, the Borrowers will, if requested by the assignee or assignor, issue new Notes to the respective assignee and to the assigning Lender in conformity with the requirements of Section 2.5. Each Lender and the Borrowers agree to execute such documents (including, without limitation, amendments to this Agreement) as shall be necessary to effect the foregoing. Nothing in this clause (b) shall prevent or prohibit any Lender from pledging its Notes or Loans, including, without limitation, to a Federal Reserve Bank in support of borrowings made by such Lender from such Federal Reserve Bank.

(c) The Administrative Agent acting on behalf of the Borrowers shall maintain at its Payment Office a copy of each Assignment Agreement delivered to it (as required hereby) and a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender from time to time (whether or not evidenced by a Note). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of the Loan or Note evidencing a Loan recorded therein for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. Any assignment of any Loan whether or not evidenced by a Note shall be effective only upon appropriate entries with respect thereto being made in the Register (and each Note shall expressly so provide). Any assignment or transfer of all or part of a Loan evidenced by a Note shall be registered on the Register only upon surrender for registration of assignment or transfer of the Note evidencing such Loan, accompanied by a duly executed Assignment Agreement, and thereupon one or more new Notes in the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the designated assignee and the old Notes shall be returned by the Administrative Agent to the Borrowers marked “cancelled”. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

Section 12.5. No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document and no course of dealing between any Credit Party and the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise

- 89 -

of any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder. The rights and remedies herein expressly provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which the Administrative Agent or any Lender would otherwise have. No notice to or demand on any Credit Party in any case shall entitle any Credit Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

Section 12.6. Payments Pro Rata. (a) Subject to the next sentence, and subject to Section 4.2 and Section 5.1 hereof, the Administrative Agent agrees that promptly after its receipt of each payment from or on behalf of any Credit Party in respect of any Obligations of such Credit Party hereunder, it shall distribute such payment to the Lenders pro rata based upon their respective shares, if any, of the Obligations with respect to which such payment was received. If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, Reimbursement Obligations, interest, indemnities and Fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest, indemnities, Fees and expenses then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest, indemnities, Fees and expenses then due to such parties; provided, that any interest, indemnities, Fees and expenses and owing to the Administrative Agent shall first be paid before any Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer is paid any amount under this clause (i), (ii) second, towards payment of principal, obligations in respect of any Hedge Agreements with any Lender or any Affiliate of any Lender and Reimbursement Obligations then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal, obligations in respect of any Hedge Agreements and Reimbursement Obligations then due to such parties and (iii) third, towards the payment of other Obligations ratably among the parties entitled thereto.

(b) Each of the Lenders agrees that, if it should receive any amount hereunder (whether by voluntary payment, by realization upon security, by the exercise of the right of setoff or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action, by the enforcement of any right under the Credit Documents, or otherwise) which is applicable to the payment of the principal of, or interest on, the Loans, Fees or Reimbursement Obligations, of a sum which with respect to the related sum or sums received by other Lenders is in a greater proportion than the total of such Obligation then owed and due to such Lender bears to the total of such Obligation then owed and due to all of the Lenders immediately prior to such receipt, then such Lender receiving such excess payment shall purchase for cash without recourse or warranty from the other Lenders an interest in the Obligations of the respective Credit Party to such Lenders in such amount as shall result in a proportional participation by all of the Lenders in such amount, provided that if all or any portion of such excess amount is thereafter recovered from such Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

Section 12.7. Calculations; Computations. The financial statements to be furnished to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders pursuant hereto shall be made and prepared in accordance with GAAP as in effect from time to time during the periods involved (except as set forth in the notes thereto or as otherwise disclosed in writing by Holdings or the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent). Any changes in GAAP as applied in the preparation of such financial statements will be incorporated in such calculations and computations unless Holdings, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, or the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, by written notice Holdings, objects to the inclusion of such changes in GAAP, whereupon such changes in GAAP shall be excluded from calculations and computations hereunder until such time as the parties hereto have amended this Agreement to reflect

- 90 -

appropriately the effect of such change in GAAP, and, in any event, Holdings shall provide to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders financial statements and other documents required under this Agreement or as reasonably requested hereunder setting forth a reconciliation between calculations of such ratio or requirement made before and after giving effect to such change in GAAP. Interest and Fees shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed. Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a change in the Base Rate or the Eurocurrency Reserve Requirements shall become effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change in the Base Rate is announced or such change in the Eurocurrency Reserve Requirements becomes effective, as the case may be.

Section 12.8. Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial. (a) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER AND THEREUNDER SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND BE GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Federal District Court of the Southern District of New York, and of any state court of the State of New York located in the Borough of Manhattan and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Credit Document or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York state court or , to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Credit Document shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Credit Document against Holdings or either Borrower or their properties in the courts of any jurisdiction. With respect to the choice of law provided for in this paragraph, the parties hereto expressly acknowledge that, given the large number of state jurisdictions which have relationships to one or more of the parties or to the transactions in question, thoughtful negotiations were had in respect to that issue and the parties ultimately selected the State of New York for a number of reasons, including that (i) the State of New York had direct relationships to certain of the parties and the related transactions (e.g., the transactional documents initially were being delivered by the Borrowers and the Guarantors to the Administrative Agent’s counsel in the State of New York, and the Administrative Agent’s counsel and certain of the Lenders maintain places of business in the State of New York) and (ii) the parties and their respective counsel uniformly were comfortable with the law of the State of New York based upon their prior experiences which involved application of that law in similarly sophisticated commercial transactions. In that regard, the parties hereto further expressly acknowledge and agree that a reasonable basis existed for their selection of the choice of law arrangement provided for in this paragraph.

(b) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any of the aforesaid actions or proceedings arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document brought in the courts referred to in clause (a) above and hereby further irrevocably waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

(c) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to the service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 12.3. Nothing in this Agreement or in any other Credit Document will affect the right of any party hereto to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

(d) EACH OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.

Section 12.9. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts, including by means of facsimile, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument. A set of counterparts executed by all the parties hereto shall be lodged with the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent.

Section 12.10. Effectiveness. This Agreement shall become effective on the date (the “Closing Date”) on which (a) Holdings, the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders shall have signed a copy hereof (whether the same or different copies) and shall have delivered the same to the Administrative Agent or, in the case of the Lenders, shall have given to the Administrative Agent telephonic (confirmed in writing), written or facsimile transmission notice (actually received) at such office that the same has been signed and mailed to it and (b) each of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 6.1 shall have been satisfied.

Section 12.11. Headings. The headings of the several sections and subsections of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this Agreement.

Section 12.12. Amendment or Waiver. Subject to Section 2.14, neither this Agreement nor any other Credit Document nor any terms hereof or thereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated unless such change, waiver, discharge or termination is in writing signed by each applicable Credit Party and the Required Lenders, provided that no such change, waiver, discharge or termination shall:

(i) waive any Term Loan Scheduled Repayment, defer any Term Loan Scheduled Repayment or extend the Term Facility Final Maturity Date or the Revolving Facility Final Maturity Date or the date for any scheduled payment of principal (it being understood that any waiver of the application of any prepayment of, or the method of application of any prepayment to the amortization of, the Loans shall not constitute a waiver of any such Term Loan Scheduled Repayment or any such extension), or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of any interest (except (x) as a result of waiving the applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates and (y) that any amendment or modification of defined terms used in the definition of “First Lien Leverage Ratio” shall not constitute a reduction in interest rate for purposes of this clause (i)) or Fees payable hereunder, or forgive or reduce the principal of any amounts payable hereunder or under any other Credit Documents, or increase the Commitment of any Lender over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or of a mandatory reduction in the Total Commitment shall not constitute a change in the terms of any Commitment of

- 92 -

any Lender), in each case without the written consent of each Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender) directly affected thereby; provided that no increase of the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender will be effective without the consent of such Defaulting Lender;

(ii) release or subordinate all or any material portion of the Collateral (other than in connection with the sale of such Collateral to the extent permitted herein) or release all or substantially all of the Guarantors from their respective Guaranties (in each case except as expressly provided in the Credit Documents) without the written consent of each Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender) directly affected thereby;

(iii) amend, modify or waive any provision of this Section 12.12 or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to amend, waive or otherwise modify any rights hereunder without the written consent of each Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender) directly affected thereby;

(iv) reduce the percentage specified in, or otherwise modify, the definition of Required Lenders without the written consent of each Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender) directly affected thereby;

(v) consent to the assignment or transfer by any Credit Party of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement without the written consent of each Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender) directly affected thereby;

(vi) alter any allocation of mandatory prepayments under Section 5.2 between the Term Loans or the Revolving Facility without the written consent of a majority in interest of the Lenders of the Term Loans or the Revolving Facility, as the case may be, adversely affected thereby (provided that, with the written consent of the Required Lenders, mandatory prepayments under clauses (iii), (iv) and (v) of Section 5.2 may be reduced or eliminated);

(vii) change Section 5.3 or Section 12.6, or change Section 6.5 of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, in each case, in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby;

(viii) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 3 or Section 11 without the written consent of the Letter of Credit Issuer or the Administrative Agent, respectively; or

(ix) amend Section 2.9(a) to permit Interest Periods of greater than six months without the unanimous written consent of the Lenders under the applicable Facility.

In addition, (i) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Letter of Credit Issuer in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of the Letter of Credit Issuer under this Agreement or any Letter of Credit Request relating to any Letter of Credit issued or to be issued by it; (ii) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Swingline Lender in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of the Swingline Lender under this

- 93 -

Agreement; and (iii) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Credit Document.

Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification shall apply equally to each of the Lenders and shall be binding upon the Credit Parties, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and all future holders of the Loans. In the case of any waiver, the Credit Parties, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall be restored to their former position and rights hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, and any Default or Event of Default waived in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default, or impair any right consequent thereon.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement, including this Section 12.12, and the other Credit Documents may be amended (or amended and restated) pursuant to Section 2.14(a) in order to add the Incremental Commitments to this Agreement and (a) to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement (including the rights of the Incremental Lenders with Incremental Term Commitments to share ratably with the Term Facility in prepayments pursuant to Section 5.1 and Section 5.2) and the other Credit Documents with the Term Loans and Total Revolving Extensions of Credit and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof, (b) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facility in any determination of the Required Lenders and (c) to amend other provision of the Credit Documents so that the Lenders holding Incremental Commitments are appropriately incorporated (including this Section 12.12).

In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, Holdings, the Borrowers and the Lenders (or new lenders) providing the relevant Replacement Term Loans (as defined below) to permit the refinancing or modification of all outstanding Term Loans (“Refinanced Term Loans”) with a replacement term loan tranche hereunder (“Replacement Term Loans”), provided that (a) the aggregate principal amount of such Replacement Term Loans shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount of such Refinanced Term Loans plus the amount of any Incremental Commitments, (b) the Applicable Margin for such Replacement Term Loans shall not be higher than the Applicable Margin for such Refinanced Term Loans, (c) the weighted average life to maturity of such Replacement Term Loans shall not be shorter than the weighted average life to maturity of such Refinanced Term Loans at the time of such refinancing and (d) all other terms applicable to such Replacement Term Loans shall be agreed upon by the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent.

Section 12.13. Survival. All indemnities set forth herein including, without limitation, in Section 2.10, Section 2.11, Section 3.5, Section 5.4, Section 11.7 or Section 12.1 shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making and repayment or assignment of the Loans.

Section 12.14. Domicile of Loans. Each Lender may transfer and carry its Loans at, to or for the account of any branch office, subsidiary or affiliate of such Lender, provided that the Borrowers shall not be responsible for costs arising under Section 2.10, Section 3.5 or Section 5.4 resulting from any such transfer (other than a transfer pursuant to Section 2.12) to the extent not otherwise applicable to such Lender prior to such transfer.

Section 12.15. USA Patriot Act. Each Lender hereby notifies Holdings and the Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56, signed into law October 26, 2001) (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies Holdings and the Borrowers, which information includes the name and address of Holdings and the Borrowers and other information that will allow such Lender to identify Holdings the Borrowers in accordance with the Act.

Section 12.16. Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent and each Lender agrees to keep confidential all non-public information provided to it hereunder with respect to any Credit Party pursuant to this Agreement that is designated by such Credit Party as confidential; provided that nothing herein shall prevent the Administrative Agent or any Lender from disclosing any such information (a) to the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or, subject to an agreement to comply with the provisions of this Section, any Lender Affiliate, (b) subject to an agreement to comply with the provisions of this Section, to any assignee or participant or prospective assignee or participant or any actual or prospective direct or indirect counterparty to any Hedge Agreement (or any professional advisor to such counterparty), (c) on a need-to-know basis, to its employees involved in the administration of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, directors, agents, attorneys, accountants, consultants and other professional advisors or those of any of its Affiliates (each of whom shall be instructed to hold the same in confidence), (d) upon the request or demand of any Governmental Authority having supervisory authority over such Lender, (e) in response to any order of any court or other Governmental Authority or as may otherwise be required pursuant to any Requirement of Law, (f) that has been publicly disclosed other than in breach of this Agreement, (g) to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about a Lender’s investment portfolio in connection with ratings issued with respect to such Lender, (h) in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder or under any other Credit Document, (i) with the consent of the Borrowers or (j) that becomes available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries.

Section 12.17. Release of Liens and Guarantees. In the event that the Borrowers or any Subsidiary conveys, sells, leases, assigns, transfers or otherwise disposes of all or any portion of any of the Capital Stock, assets or property of the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries in a transaction expressly permitted by this Agreement or any other Credit Document, the Administrative Agent shall promptly (and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to) take such action and execute any such documents as may be reasonably requested by the Borrowers and at the Borrowers’ expense to release any Liens created by any Credit Document in respect of such Capital Stock, assets, property, including the release and satisfaction of record or partial release of record of any

- 95 -

mortgage or deed of trust granted in connection herewith, and, in the case of a disposition of all or substantially all the Capital Stock or assets of any Subsidiary Guarantor, terminate such Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and release all Liens on the assets of such Subsidiary Guarantor. In addition, the Administrative Agent agrees to take such actions as are reasonably requested by the Borrowers and at the Borrowers’ expense to terminate the Liens and security interests created by the Credit Documents when all the Obligations are paid in full and all Letters of Credit and Commitments are terminated.

Section 12.18. Integration. This Agreement and the other Credit Documents represent the agreement of the Borrowers, the other Credit Parties, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Administrative Agent or any Lender relative to the subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Credit Documents.

Section 12.19. Acknowledgments. Holdings and the Borrowers hereby acknowledge that:

(i) no amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of Section 3 or Section 11 shall be or become effective without the written consent of the Letter of Credit Issuer or the Administrative Agent, respectively; or

(ii) they have been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents; or

(iii) neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any fiduciary relationship with or duty to Holdings or the Borrowers arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents, and the relationship between Administrative Agent and Lenders, on one hand, and Holdings and the Borrowers, on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of debtor and creditor; and

(iv) no joint venture is created hereby or by the other Credit Documents or otherwise exists by virtue of the transactions contemplated hereby among the Lenders or among Holdings, the Borrowers and the Lenders.

(b) The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the each of the “Joint Lead Arrangers”, the “Sole Bookrunner” and the “Co-Documentation Agents” (in their respective capacities as such) shall have no obligations, duties or liabilities under this Agreement or the other Credit Documents.

Section 12.20. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding any terms or provisions contained herein or any of the other Credit Documents, in no event or contingency shall the aggregate amount of Interest (as defined below) contracted for, reserved, charged, collected, taken or received by any Lender pursuant to or in connection with the terms of any of the Credit Documents exceed the maximum amount permissible (the “Maximum Rate”) under the Usury Laws. No agreements, conditions, provisions or stipulations contained in any of the Credit Documents or the exercise by any Lender or the Administrative Agent of the rights to accelerate the payment or the maturity of all or any portion of the Obligations, or the exercise of any option whatsoever contained in any of the Credit Documents, or the prepayment by the Borrowers of any of the Obligations, or the occurrence of any contingency whatsoever, shall entitle any Lender to charge, collect or receive Interest in excess of the Maximum Rate and in no event shall the Borrowers be

- 96 -

obligated to pay Interest exceeding the Maximum Rate. All agreements, conditions or stipulations, if any, which may in any event or contingency operate to bind, obligate or compel the Borrowers to pay Interest exceeding the Maximum Rate shall be without binding force or effect, at law or in equity, but only to the extent of the excess of Interest over such Maximum Rate. If any Interest is contracted for, charged, collected, taken or received in excess of the Maximum Rate (“Excess”), the Borrowers acknowledges and agrees that any such obligation, charge, collection or receipt shall be the result of a bona fide error, and such Excess, to the extent received, shall be applied first to reduce the principal amount of the Obligations and the balance, if any, returned to the Borrowers; it being the intent of the parties hereto not to enter into a usurious or otherwise illegal relationship. All monies paid to any Lender under any of the Credit Documents, whether at maturity or by prepayment, shall be subject to rebate of unearned interest as and to the extent required by the Usury Laws. By the execution of this Agreement, the Borrowers covenant and agree that (i) the credit or return of any Excess shall constitute the acceptance by the Borrowers of such Excess, and (ii) the Borrowers shall not seek or pursue any other remedy, legal or equitable, against any Lender, based in whole or in part upon contracting for, charging, collecting or receiving any Interest in excess of the Maximum Rate. For the purpose of determining whether or not any Excess has been contracted for, charged, collected or received by any Lender, all Interest at any time contracted for, charged, collected or received from the Borrowers in connection with any of the Credit Documents shall, to the extent permitted by the Usury Laws, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread in equal parts throughout the full term of the Obligations. The Borrowers and each Lender shall, to the maximum extent permitted under the Usury Laws, (i) characterize any non-principal payment as an expense rather than as Interest and (ii) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof. The provisions of this Section shall be deemed to be incorporated into every Credit Document (whether or not any provision of this Section is referred to therein). For purposes hereof, the term “Interest” shall mean any and all interest, fees, premiums and other charges for the use of money or the extension of credit and shall include any "interest" (or any amount or sum deemed to be “interest”) under and as defined in the Usury Laws; and the term “Usury Laws” shall mean any applicable laws, statutes (including, without limitation, Title 7, Chapter 4 of the Official Code of Georgia), rules, regulations or ordinances limiting, governing or otherwise regulating the rate or amount of Interest or the manner which Interest may be calculated, charged, collected, paid, contracted for or disclosed.
