ARTICLE II
CREDIT TERMS

SECTION 2.1. LINE OF CREDIT.

(a) Line of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Bank hereby agrees to make advances to Borrower from time to time up to and including the Maturity Date, not to exceed at any time the aggregate principal amount of Fifty Million Dollars ($50,000,000) (“Line of Credit”), the proceeds of which shall be used to refinance certain outstanding indebtedness as approved by Bank and for working capital and general corporate purposes. Borrower’s obligation to repay advances under the Line of Credit shall be evidenced by a promissory note dated as of the date hereof (“Line of Credit Note”) substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, all terms of which are incorporated herein by this reference.

(b) Letter of Credit Subfeature. As a subfeature under the Line of Credit, Bank agrees from time to time during the term thereof to issue or cause an affiliate to issue commercial or standby letters of credit for the account of Borrower (each, a “Letter of Credit” and collectively, “Letters of Credit”); provided however, that the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit shall not at any time exceed Twenty Million Dollars ($20,000,000). The form and substance of each Letter of Credit shall be subject to approval by Bank, in its sole discretion. Each Letter of Credit shall expire on a date (the “L/C Expiration Date”) at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal or extension) and (ii) the date that is five Business Days prior to the Maturity Date. The undrawn amount of all Letters of Credit shall be reserved under the Line of Credit and shall not be available for borrowings thereunder. Each Letter of Credit shall be subject to the additional terms and conditions of the Letter of Credit agreements, applications and any related documents required by Bank in connection with the issuance thereof. Each drawing paid under a Letter of Credit shall be deemed an advance under the Line of Credit and shall be repaid by Borrower in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement applicable to such advances; provided however, that if advances under the Line of Credit are not available, for any reason, at the time any drawing is paid, then Borrower shall immediately pay to Bank the full amount drawn, together with interest thereon from the date such drawing is paid to the date such amount is fully repaid by Borrower, at the Default Rate. In such event Borrower agrees that Bank, in its sole discretion, may debit any account maintained by Borrower with Bank for the amount of any such drawing.

(c) Borrowing and Repayment. Borrower may from time to time during the term of the Line of Credit borrow, partially or wholly repay its outstanding borrowings, and reborrow, subject to all of the limitations, terms and conditions contained herein or in the Line of Credit Note; provided however, that the total outstanding borrowings under the Line of Credit (the “Loans”) shall not at any time exceed the maximum principal amount available thereunder, as set forth above. The outstanding principal balance of all Loans, and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall be due and payable in full on the Maturity Date. Borrower may terminate the Line of Credit in whole, or reduce the maximum amount of the Line of Credit in part in an amount not less than $5,000,000 in principal amount and incremental multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (or in such other amount as agreed by Bank), any time prior to the Maturity Date upon not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice to the Bank. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and be irrevocable. On such date of termination or reduction, Borrower shall pay to Bank the principal outstanding amount of any Loans in excess of the Line of Credit after giving effect to such termination or reduction, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, any accrued and unpaid unused line fees and any amounts owing under Section 2.2(i). In no event shall any partial reduction in the Line of Credit result in the Letter of Credit Subfeature being in excess of the Line of Credit, and Borrower agrees to cash collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit in an amount equal to 105% of the L/C Outstanding Amount in excess of the maximum amount of the remaining Letter of Credit Subfeature after giving effect to any reduction thereof.

SECTION 2.2. INTEREST/FEES.

(a) Interest.

(i) The outstanding principal balance of each Loan shall bear interest, and the amount of each drawing paid under any Letter of Credit shall bear interest from the date such drawing is paid to the date such amount is fully repaid by Borrower, at the Applicable Rate. So long as no Event of Default exists or would result from any credit extension hereunder, Borrower may select, subject to Section 2.2(a)(iii), whether any advance under the Line of Credit will bear interest by reference to Daily One Month LIBOR or to a Fixed Rate Term, and the length of the applicable Fixed Rate Term as set forth below.

(ii) At any time any Obligation bears interest determined in relation to LIBOR for a Fixed Rate Term, it may be continued by Borrower at the end of the Fixed Rate Term applicable thereto so that all or a portion thereof bears interest determined in relation to the Daily One Month LIBOR Rate or to LIBOR for a new Fixed Rate Term designated by Borrower. At any time any portion of this Note bears interest determined in relation to the Daily One Month LIBOR Rate, Borrower may at any time convert all or a portion thereof so that it bears interest determined in relation to LIBOR for a Fixed Rate Term designated by Borrower. At such time as Borrower requests an advance hereunder or wishes to select an interest rate determined in relation to the Daily One Month LIBOR Rate or a Fixed Rate Term for all or a portion of the outstanding principal balance hereof, and at the end of each Fixed Rate Term, Borrower shall give Bank notice specifying: (A) the interest rate option selected by Borrower; (B) the principal amount subject thereto; and (C) for each LIBOR selection for a Fixed Rate Term, the length of the applicable Fixed Rate Term. Any such notice may be given by telephone (or such other electronic method as Bank may permit) so long as, with respect to each LIBOR selection for a Fixed Rate Term, (1) if requested by Bank, Borrower provides to Bank written confirmation thereof not later than three (3) Business Days after such notice is given, and (2) such notice is given to Bank prior to 10:00 a.m. on the first day of the Fixed Rate Term, or at a later time during any Business Day if Bank, at its sole option but without obligation to do so, accepts Borrower’s notice and quotes a fixed rate to Borrower. If Borrower does not immediately accept a fixed rate when quoted by Bank, the quoted rate shall expire and any subsequent LIBOR request from Borrower shall be subject to a redetermination by Bank of the applicable fixed rate. If no specific designation of interest is made at the time any advance is requested hereunder or at the end of any Fixed Rate Term, Borrower shall be deemed to have made a Daily One Month LIBOR Rate interest selection for such advance or the principal amount to which such Fixed Rate Term applied.

(iii) At no time shall there be more than ten (10) Fixed Rate Terms in effect at any time.

(b) Unused Commitment Fee. Borrower shall pay to Bank a fee on the average daily unused amount of the Line of Credit at the Applicable Rate, which fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears by Bank and shall be due and payable by Borrower in arrears within ten (10) Business Days after each billing is sent by Bank.

(c) Letter of Credit Fees. Borrower shall pay to Bank:

(i) fees upon the issuance of each Commercial Letter of Credit, determined in accordance with Bank’s standard fees and charges then in effect;

(ii) upon the payment or negotiation of each drawing under any Letter of Credit and upon the occurrence of any other activity with respect to any Letter of Credit (including the transfer, amendment or cancellation of any Letter of Credit), determined in accordance with Bank’s standard fees and charges then in effect for such activity; and

(iii) for each Standby Letter of Credit a fee equal to the per annum Applicable Rate for Standby Letters of Credit multiplied by the daily amount available to be drawn under such Standby Letter of Credit. Such fees shall be: (A) computed on a quarterly basis in arrears; and (B) due and payable on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December (in each case for the calendar quarter then ending), commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the L/C Expiration Date and thereafter on demand. If there is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, then the daily amount available to be drawn under each Letter of Credit shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate per day separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, while any Event of Default exists, all such fees shall accrue at the Default Rate unless waived by Bank in writing.

(d) Computation and Payment. Interest and fees shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year, actual days elapsed. Interest shall be payable at the times and place set forth in each promissory note or other instrument or document required hereby.

(e) Default Rate. From and after the Maturity Date, or at Bank’s option upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all outstanding Obligations shall bear interest at the Default Rate. Accrued and unpaid interest at the Default Rate shall be due and payable upon demand.

(f) Interest Payments. Interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may be specified herein. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof both before and after judgment, and both before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law.

(g) Taxes and Costs. Borrower shall pay to Bank immediately upon demand, in addition to any other amounts due or to become due hereunder, any and all (i) withholdings, interest equalization taxes, stamp taxes or other taxes (except income and franchise taxes) imposed by any domestic or foreign governmental authority and related in any manner to LIBOR, and (ii) future, supplemental, emergency or other changes in the LIBOR Reserve Percentage, assessment rates imposed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or similar requirements or costs imposed by any domestic or foreign governmental authority or resulting from compliance by Bank with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other governmental authority and related in any manner to LIBOR to the extent they are not included in the calculation of LIBOR. In determining which of the foregoing are attributable to any LIBOR option available to Borrower hereunder, any reasonable allocation made by Bank among its operations shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrower.

(h) Inability to Determine LIBOR. If Bank determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR of any Fixed Rate Term, or it is unlawful for Bank to make or maintain credit extensions with reference to LIBOR, or LIBOR for any Fixed Rate Term will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Bank of making or maintaining any Loan accruing interest at such rate as a consequence of a change of Laws or otherwise, Bank shall give notice thereof to Borrower and Bank and Borrower shall negotiate in good faith to find a substitute rate or interest.

(i) Breakage Costs. In the event of (i) the payment of any principal of any Fixed Rate Term Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default or as a result of any prepayment, (ii) the conversion of any Fixed Rate Term Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, or (iii) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Fixed Rate Term Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate Bank for the loss and reasonable cost and expense attributable to such event. A certificate of Bank setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of any amount or amounts that Bank is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to Borrower. Borrower shall pay Bank the amount shown as due on any such certificate within thirty (30) days after receipt thereof.

SECTION 2.3. COLLECTION OF PAYMENTS. Borrower authorizes Bank to collect all principal, interest and fees due under each credit subject hereto by charging deposit account number ###-###-#### with Bank, or any other deposit account maintained by any Loan Party with Bank, for the full amount thereof. Should there be insufficient funds in any such deposit account to pay all such sums when due, the full amount of such deficiency shall be immediately due and payable by Borrower.

SECTION 2.4. COLLATERAL.

(a) As security for all indebtedness and other Obligations of Borrower to Bank hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents, Borrower hereby grants to Bank security interests of first priority in all Collateral in which Borrower has any right, title or interest, whether now existing or hereafter arising, acquired or created. In addition, each Subsidiary Guarantor party hereto hereby grants to Bank, and Borrower shall cause each additional Subsidiary Guarantor to grant to Bank, as security for all Obligations, security interests of first priority in all Collateral in which such Subsidiary Guarantor has any right, title or interest, whether now existing or hereafter arising, acquired or created. All of the foregoing shall be evidenced by and subject to the terms of such security agreements, financing statements, deeds or mortgages, and other documents as Bank shall reasonably require, all in form and substance satisfactory to Bank. Borrower shall pay to Bank immediately upon demand the full amount of all charges, costs and expenses (to include reasonable fees paid to third parties), expended or incurred by Bank in connection with any of the foregoing security, including filing and recording fees and costs of appraisals, audits and title insurance.

(b) Unless and until requested by Bank in its sole discretion, none of the Owned Real Estate and none of Borrower’s or any Loan Party’s interest in any of the Material Leased Real Estate shall be required to be subject to a Lien in favor of Bank as Collateral security for the Obligations. The leasehold interest of Borrower or any other Loan Party in any real property, other than (if requested) with respect to any of the Material Leased Real Estate, shall not be required to be subject to a Lien in favor of Bank as Collateral security for the Obligations.

ARTICLE III
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

Borrower makes the following representations and warranties to Bank, which representations and warranties shall survive the execution of this Agreement and shall continue in full force and effect until the full and final payment, and satisfaction and discharge, of all obligations of Borrower to Bank subject to this Agreement.

SECTION 3.1. LEGAL STATUS. Borrower is a corporation, duly organized and existing and in good standing under the laws of Delaware, and is qualified or licensed to do business (and is in good standing as a foreign corporation, if applicable) in all jurisdictions in which such qualification or licensing is required or in which the failure to so qualify or to be so licensed could have a Material Adverse Effect. Each Subsidiary of Borrower is a corporation, partnership or limited liability company duly organized and existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation, organization or formation, and is qualified or licensed to do business (and is in good standing as a foreign corporation, partnership or limited liability company, if applicable) in all jurisdictions in which such qualification or licensing is required or in which the failure to so qualify or to be so licensed could have a Material Adverse Effect. Schedule 3.1 correctly identifies the jurisdiction of organization of each of Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries as of the date hereof.

SECTION 3.2. AUTHORIZATION AND VALIDITY. This Agreement and each Loan Document have been duly authorized, and upon their execution and delivery in accordance with the provisions hereof and thereof will constitute legal, valid and binding agreements and obligations of Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor party thereto, or the party which executes the same, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, except, as to enforceability, as may be limited by Bankruptcy Laws and the availability of equitable remedies.

SECTION 3.3. NO VIOLATION. The execution, delivery and performance by Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor of each of the Loan Documents do not violate any provision of any law or regulation, or contravene any provision of such Person’s Organizational Documents, or result in any breach of or default under any material contract, obligation, indenture or other instrument to which Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor is a party or by which Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor may be bound.

SECTION 3.4. LITIGATION. There are no pending, or to Borrower’s or any Subsidiary Guarantor’s actual knowledge after due inquiry (based upon the litigation search reports by CT Corporation dated November 19, November 22 and November 23, 2010, respectively, attached as Schedule 3.4A) threatened, actions, claims, investigations, suits or proceedings by or before any Governmental Authority, arbitrator, court or administrative agency which could have a Material Adverse Effect other than those disclosed to Bank on Schedule 3.4 hereto.

SECTION 3.5. CORRECTNESS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. The annual consolidated and consolidating financial statements of Borrower dated December 31, 2009, and all interim financial statements delivered to Bank since such date, true copies of which have been delivered by Borrower to Bank prior to the date hereof, (a) are complete and correct and present fairly the financial condition of Borrower and each Subsidiary, (b) disclose all liabilities of Borrower and each Subsidiary that are required to be reflected or reserved against under GAAP, whether liquidated or unliquidated, fixed or contingent, and (c) have been prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied. Since the December 31, 2009, there has been no Material Adverse Effect except as disclosed to Bank on Schedule 3.5 hereto, nor has Borrower or any Subsidiary mortgaged, pledged, granted a security interest in or otherwise encumbered any of its assets or properties except in favor of Bank or as otherwise permitted hereunder.

SECTION 3.6. INCOME TAX RETURNS. Neither Borrower nor any Subsidiary Guarantor has any knowledge of any pending material assessments or adjustments of its income tax payable with respect to any year.

SECTION 3.7. NO SUBORDINATION. There is no agreement, indenture, contract or instrument to which Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor is a party or by which Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor may be bound that requires the subordination in right of payment of any of Borrower’s or any Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations subject to this Agreement to any other obligation of Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor.

SECTION 3.8. PERMITS, FRANCHISES. Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries possesses, and will hereafter possess, all material permits, consents, approvals, franchises and licenses required and rights to all trademarks, trade names, patents, and fictitious names, if any, necessary to enable it to conduct the business in which it is now engaged in compliance in all material respects with applicable law.

SECTION 3.9. ERISA. Borrower and each Subsidiary are in compliance in all material respects with all applicable provisions of ERISA; Borrower has not, and none of its Subsidiaries has, violated any provision of any Plan maintained or contributed to by Borrower or such Subsidiary; no Reportable Event (as defined in ERISA) has occurred and is continuing with respect to any Plan initiated by Borrower or any Subsidiary; Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries has met its minimum funding requirements under ERISA with respect to each Plan; and each Plan will be able to fulfill its benefit obligations as they come due in accordance with the Plan documents and under GAAP.

SECTION 3.10. OTHER OBLIGATIONS. Neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is in default on any material obligation for borrowed money, any purchase money obligation or any other material lease, commitment, contract, instrument or obligation and no condition exists which, with the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both, could constitute such a default, except where the consequences, direct or indirect, of such default or defaults, if any, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

SECTION 3.11. ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.11 hereto, each of Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries is in compliance in all material respects with all applicable federal or state environmental, hazardous waste, health and safety statutes, and any rules or regulations adopted pursuant thereto, which govern or affect such Person’s operations and/or properties, including the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act of 1986, the Federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976, and the Federal Toxic Substances Control Act, as any of the same may be amended, modified or supplemented from time to time. None of the operations of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is the subject of any federal or state investigation evaluating whether any remedial action involving a material expenditure is needed to respond to a release of any toxic or hazardous waste or substance into the environment. None of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries has any material contingent liability in connection with any release of any toxic or hazardous waste or substance into the environment.

SECTION 3.12. SUBSIDIARIES. Neither Borrower nor any Subsidiary owns any Equity Interest, directly or indirectly, in any Person other than the Persons set forth on Schedule 3.12 hereto, which accurately and completely reflects the capital and ownership of such Person.

SECTION 3.13. TRUTH, ACCURACY OF INFORMATION. To the best of each Loan Party’s knowledge, no statement of financial or other information furnished by Borrower or any other Loan Party to Bank in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents contains any untrue statement of material fact or omits a material fact necessary to make the statement not misleading in light of all of the circumstances existing on the date the statement was made, including such circumstances or other factual information previously furnished by Borrower or any other Loan Party to Bank. Any projections and pro forma financial information contained in such materials are based upon good faith estimates and assumptions believed by Borrower to be reasonable at the time made, it being recognized by Bank that such projections as to future events are not to be viewed as facts and that actual results during the period or periods covered by any such projections may differ from the projected results. There are no facts known (or which should upon the reasonable exercise of diligence be known) to Borrower or any other Loan Party (other than matters of a general economic nature) that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect and that have not been disclosed herein or in such other documents, certificates and statements furnished to Bank for use in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

SECTION 3.14. FICTITIOUS NAMES. The only fictitious names used by Borrower or any other Loan Party are set forth on Schedule 3.14 hereto.

SECTION 3.15. MUTUAL BENEFIT. The funds that have been and are to be borrowed from Bank by Borrower have been and are to be contemporaneously paid to or used for the benefit of each Loan Party. It is the position, intent and expectation of the parties that each of Borrower and each other Loan Party has derived and will continue to derive significant, substantial and direct benefits from the accommodations that have been made by Bank under the Loan Documents and that each of Borrower and each other Loan Party has received at least “reasonably equivalent value” (as such phrase is used in Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code) and more than sufficient consideration to support the indebtedness, obligations, liens and security interests created under the Loan Documents and all repayments or other transfers made or to be made to Bank. To the extent, if any, that funds are transferred by any of Borrower or any Loan Party to Borrower or any other Loan Party, as the case may be, which such recipient intends to be used to repay Bank, it is the position, intent and expectation of the parties that: (a) such funds shall in fact be used to contemporaneously repay Bank; (b) to the maximum extent permitted by law, these transfers constitute contemporaneous exchanges for value given to the transferor and, therefore, shall qualify for the protection and benefits of Section 547(c) of the Bankruptcy Code; and (c) in any event, Bank, as the immediate transferee of such funds, shall take them in “good faith” and without “knowledge of the voidability of the transfer” as between Borrower and such other Loan Party or as between Subsidiary Guarantors, as the case may be, if any, as those phrases are used in Section 550(b) of the Bankruptcy Code.

To the extent that any payment or collateral proceeds received by Bank is subsequently avoided or otherwise required to be paid over to any other person or entity, then the obligation or indebtedness which had been paid, reduced or satisfied by such payment or receipt of collateral proceeds shall be reinstated and continued in full force and effect as of the date such initial payment, reduction or satisfaction occurred.

SECTION 3.16. SOLVENCY. Borrower and each other Loan Party, taken individually, is solvent, able to pay its debts generally as such debts mature, and has capital sufficient to carry on its businesses and all businesses in which it is about to engage. The saleable value of Borrower’s and each other Loan Party’s total assets at a fair valuation, and at a present fair saleable value, is great than the amount of Borrower’s or such other Loan Party’s total obligations. None of Borrower or any other Loan Party will be rendered insolvent by the execution or delivery of this Agreement or of any of the other Loan Documents or by the transactions contemplated hereunder or thereunder.

SECTION 3.17. MARGIN STOCK. Neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is engaged principally, or as one of its important activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock. No part of the proceeds of the Loans made to Borrower will be used to purchase or carry any such margin stock or to extend credit to others for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any such margin stock or for any purpose that violates, or is inconsistent with, the provisions of Regulation T, U or X of the Board.

SECTION 3.18. ANTI-TERRORISM LAWS.

(a) No Loan Party, and to such Loan Party’s knowledge none of their respective Affiliates, is in violation of, and shall not violate, any Laws relating to terrorism or money laundering (“Anti-Terrorism Laws”), including Executive Order No. 13224 on Terrorist Financing, effective September 24, 2001 (the “Executive Order”), and the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001, Public Law 107-56 (the “USA PATRIOT Act”);

(b) No Loan Party and, to the knowledge of the Loan Parties, no Affiliate or broker or other agent of any Loan Party acting or benefiting in any capacity in connection with any extension of credit hereunder is any of the following: (i) a person that is listed in the annex to, or is otherwise subject to the provisions of, the Executive Order; (ii) a person owned or controlled by, or acting for or on behalf of, any person that is listed in the annex to, or is otherwise subject to the provisions of, the Executive Order; (iii) a person with which any Lender is prohibited from dealing or otherwise engaging in any transaction by any Anti-Terrorism Law; (iv) a person that commits, threatens or conspires to commit or supports terrorism as defined in the Executive Order; or (v) a person that is named as a specially designated national and blocked person on the most current list published by the U.S. Treasury Department Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) at its official website or any replacement website or other replacement official publication of such list.

(c) No Loan Party and, to the knowledge of the Loan Parties, no broker or other agent of any Loan Party acting in any capacity in connection with any credit extension hereunder (i) conducts any business or engages in making or receiving any contribution of funds, goods or services to or for the benefit of any person described in paragraph (b) above, (ii) deals in, or otherwise engages in any transaction relating to, any property or interests in property blocked pursuant to the Executive Order, (iii) engages in or conspires to engage in any transaction that evades or avoids, or has the purpose of evading or avoiding, or attempts to violate, any of the prohibitions set forth in any Anti-Terrorism Law, or (iv) is in violation of, and shall not violate, any of the county or list based economic and trade sanctions administered and enforced by OFAC as published from time to time.

SECTION 3.19 REAL PROPERTY. As of the Closing Date, Schedule 3.19 contains a true, accurate and complete list of (a) all Owned Real Estate and (b) all Material Leased Real Estate. Except as disclosed on Schedule 3.19, none of the Owned Real Estate is subject to any leases, subleases or assignments of leases. The lease (or sublease) for each Material Leased Real Estate listed in Schedule 3.19 is, to Borrower’s knowledge, in full force and effect and Borrower does not have knowledge of any material default that has occurred and is continuing thereunder.

Enter into any transaction of any kind with any Affiliate of any Loan Party, irrespective of whether in the ordinary course of business, other than on fair and reasonable terms substantially as favorable to Borrower or a Subsidiary of Borrower as would be obtainable by such Person at the time in a comparable arm’s-length transaction with a Person other than an Affiliate, provided that the foregoing restriction shall not apply to: (a) transactions between or among Borrower and any Subsidiary Guarantor or between or among Subsidiary Guarantors; (b) Restricted Payments permitted hereunder; and (c) Guarantees permitted by Section 6.4(d).

SECTION 6.11 SALES AND LEASE BACKS. No Loan Party shall, nor shall it permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, become or remain liable as lessee or as a guarantor or other surety with respect to any lease (a “Sale-Leaseback”) of any property (whether real, personal or mixed), whether now owned or hereafter required, which such Loan Party (a) has sold or transferred or is to sell or to transfer to any other Person (other than Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries), or (b) intends to use for substantially the same purpose as any other property which has been or is to be sold or transferred by such Loan Party to any Person (other than Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries) in connection with such lease; provided, that the Borrower and its Subsidiaries may enter into Sale-Leasebacks which are in the ordinary course of the Borrower’s or such Subsidiary’s business, consistent with past practice and at market rates and subject to compliance with Section 6.5(d)(ii), with respect to equipment acquired by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries after the Closing Date (“Permitted Sale Leasebacks”). For avoidance of doubt, Sale-Leasebacks that result in capital leases shall be treated as Debt for all purposes of this Agreement.

SECTION 6.12 SENIOR UNSECURED NOTES. Borrower shall not amend or modify any of the terms applicable to the Senior Unsecured Notes unless such amendment or modification would not, as determined by Bank in Bank’s reasonable discretion (confirmed by an opinion of counsel at Borrower’s expense if requested by Bank) (i) be or result in any conflict with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, (ii) adversely effect any of Bank’s rights or interests under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or (iii) adversely effect Borrower’s or any other Loan Party’s ability to perform and observe their respective obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.

ARTICLE VII

(d) Any default in the payment or performance of any obligation, or any defined event of default, under the terms of any contract, instrument or document (other than any of the Loan Documents) pursuant to which Borrower, any guarantor hereunder or any general partner or joint venturer in Borrower if a partnership or joint venture (with each such guarantor, general partner and/or joint venturer referred to herein as a “Third Party Obligor”) has incurred any debt or other liability to any person or entity, including Bank.

(e) Borrower or any Third Party Obligor shall become insolvent, or shall suffer or consent to or apply for the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or liquidator of itself or any of its property, or shall generally fail to pay its debts as they become due, or shall make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; Borrower or any Third Party Obligor shall file a voluntary petition in bankruptcy, or seeking reorganization, in order to effect a plan or other arrangement with creditors or any other relief under the Bankruptcy Reform Act, Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended or recodified from time to time (“Bankruptcy Code”), or under any state or federal law granting relief to debtors, whether now or hereafter in effect; or Borrower or any Third Party Obligor shall file an answer admitting the jurisdiction of the court and the material allegations of any involuntary petition; or Borrower or any Third Party Obligor shall be adjudicated a bankrupt, or an order for relief shall be entered against Borrower or any Third Party Obligor by any court of competent jurisdiction under the Bankruptcy Code or any other Bankruptcy Law; or any involuntary petition or proceeding pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code or any other Bankruptcy Law is filed or commenced against Borrower or any Third Party Obligor unless dismissed within sixty (60) days thereof.

(g) There shall exist or occur any event or condition that Bank in good faith believes materially impairs, or is substantially likely to materially impair, the prospect of payment or performance by Borrower, any Third Party Obligor, or the general partner of either if such entity is a partnership, of its obligations under any of the Loan Documents.

(h) The dissolution or liquidation of Borrower or (unless permitted pursuant to Section 6.5) any Third Party Obligor; or Borrower or any such Third Party Obligor, or any of its directors, stockholders or members, shall take action seeking to effect the dissolution or liquidation of Borrower or (unless permitted pursuant to Section 6.5) such Third Party Obligor.

All rights, powers and remedies of Bank may be exercised at any time by Bank and from time to time after the occurrence of an Event of Default, are cumulative and not exclusive, and shall be in addition to any other rights, powers or remedies provided by law or equity; provided that, upon the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to Borrower or any other Loan Party under any Bankruptcy Law, any commitment and obligation of Bank to make Loans shall automatically terminate and the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Loans and all interest and other amounts as aforesaid shall automatically become due and payable, and the obligation of Borrower to Cash Collateralize the Letter of Credit obligations in an amount equal to 105.00% of the then L/C Outstanding Amount shall automatically become effective, in each case, without further act of Bank.

ARTICLE VIII
GUARANTY BY SUBSIDIARIES

SECTION 8.1. GUARANTY. Each Domestic Subsidiary of Borrower party hereto (each, a “Subsidiary Guarantor”) unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to Bank the full and prompt payment when due (whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise) and performance of the Obligations (the “Guaranteed Obligations”). The Guaranteed Obligations include interest that, but for a proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law, would have accrued on such Guaranteed Obligations, whether or not a claim is allowed against Borrower for such interest in any such proceeding.

SECTION 8.2. SEPARATE OBLIGATION. Each Subsidiary Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that: (i) the Guaranteed Obligations are separate and distinct from any Debt arising under or in connection with any other document, including under any provision of this Agreement other than this Article VIII, executed at any time by such Subsidiary Guarantor in favor of Bank; and (ii) such Subsidiary Guarantor shall pay and perform all of the Guaranteed Obligations as required under this Article VIII, and Bank may enforce any and all of its rights and remedies hereunder, without regard to any other document, including any provision of this Agreement other than this Article VIII, at any time executed by such Subsidiary Guarantor in favor of Bank, irrespective of whether any such other document, or any provision thereof or hereof, shall for any reason become unenforceable or any of the Debt thereunder shall have been discharged, whether by performance, avoidance or otherwise. Each Subsidiary Guarantor acknowledges that, in providing benefits to Borrower, Bank is relying upon the enforceability of this Article VIII and the Guaranteed Obligations as separate and distinct Debt of such Subsidiary Guarantor, and each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that Bank would be denied the full benefit of its bargain if at any time this Article VIII or the Guaranteed Obligations were treated any differently. The fact that the guaranty is set forth in this Agreement rather than in a separate guaranty document is for the convenience of Borrower and Subsidiary Guarantors and shall in no way impair or adversely affect the rights or benefits of Bank under this Article VIII. Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees to execute and deliver a separate document, immediately upon request at any time of Bank, evidencing such Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations under this Article VIII. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, a separate action or actions may be brought against such Subsidiary Guarantor, whether or not Borrower, any other Subsidiary Guarantor or any other Person is joined therein or a separate action or actions are brought against Borrower, any such other Subsidiary Guarantor or any such other Person.

SECTION 8.3. LIMITATION OF GUARANTY. To the extent that any court of competent jurisdiction shall impose by final judgment under applicable law (including the California Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act and Sections 544 and 548 of the Bankruptcy Code) any limitations on the amount of any Subsidiary Guarantor’s liability with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations that Bank can enforce under this Article VIII, Bank by its acceptance hereof accepts such limitation on the amount of such Subsidiary Guarantor’s liability hereunder to the extent needed to make this Article VIII fully enforceable and nonavoidable.

SECTION 8.4. LIABILITY OF SUBSIDIARY GUARANTORS. The liability of any Subsidiary Guarantor under this Article VIII shall be irrevocable, absolute, independent and unconditional, and shall not be affected by any circumstance that might constitute a discharge of a surety or guarantor other than the indefeasible payment and performance in full of all Guaranteed Obligations. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees as follows:

(a) such Subsidiary Guarantor’s liability hereunder shall be the immediate, direct, and primary obligation of such Subsidiary Guarantor and shall not be contingent upon Bank’s exercise or enforcement of any remedy it may have against Borrower or any other Person, or against any collateral or other security for any Guaranteed Obligations;

(b) this Guaranty is a guaranty of payment when due and not merely of collectibility;

(c) Bank may enforce this Article VIII upon the occurrence of an Event of Default notwithstanding the existence of any dispute between Bank, on the one hand, and Borrower or any other Person, on the other hand, with respect to the existence of such Event of Default;

(d) such Subsidiary Guarantor’s payment of a portion, but not all, of the Guaranteed Obligations shall in no way limit, affect, modify or abridge such Subsidiary Guarantor’s liability for any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations remaining unsatisfied; and

(e) such Subsidiary Guarantor’s liability with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be impaired or affected by, nor shall such Subsidiary Guarantor be exonerated or discharged by, any of the following events:

(i) any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law;

(ii) any limitation, discharge, or cessation of the liability of Borrower or any other Person for any Guaranteed Obligations due to any statute, regulation or rule of law, or any invalidity or unenforceability in whole or in part of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or the Loan Documents;

(iii) any merger, acquisition, consolidation or change in structure of any Loan Party or any other Person, or any sale, lease, transfer or other disposition of any or all of the assets or shares of Borrower or any other Person;

(iv) any assignment or other transfer, in whole or in part, of Bank’s interests in and rights under this Agreement (including this Article VIII) or the other Loan Documents;

(v) any claim, defense, counterclaim or setoff, other than that of prior performance, that Borrower or any Guarantor or any other Person may have or assert, including any defense of incapacity or lack of corporate or other authority to execute any of the Loan Documents;

(vi) Bank’s amendment, modification, renewal, extension, cancellation or surrender of any Loan Document or any Guaranteed Obligations;

(vii) Bank’s exercise or non-exercise of any power, right or remedy with respect to any Guaranteed Obligations or any collateral;

(viii) Bank’s vote, claim, distribution, election, acceptance, action or inaction in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law; or

(ix) any other guaranty, whether by such Subsidiary Guarantor or any other Person, of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other indebtedness, obligations or liabilities of Borrower to Bank.

SECTION 8.5. CONSENTS OF SUBSIDIARY GUARANTORS. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby unconditionally consents and agrees that, without notice to or further assent from such Subsidiary Guarantor:

(i) the principal amount of the Guaranteed Obligations may be increased or decreased and additional indebtedness or obligations of Borrower under the Loan Documents may be incurred and the time, manner, place or terms of any payment under any Loan Document may be extended or changed, by one or more amendments, modifications, renewals or extensions of any Loan Document or otherwise;

(ii) the time for Borrower’s (or any other Person’s) performance of or compliance with any term, covenant or agreement on its part to be performed or observed under any Loan Document may be extended, or such performance or compliance waived, or failure in or departure from such performance or compliance consented to, all in such manner and upon such terms as Bank may deem proper;

(iii) Bank may request and accept other guaranties and may take and hold security as collateral for the Guaranteed Obligations, and may, from time to time, in whole or in part, exchange, sell, surrender, release, subordinate, modify, waive, rescind, compromise or extend such other guaranties or security and may permit or consent to any such action or the result of any such action, and may apply such security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof; and

(iv) Bank may exercise, or waive or otherwise refrain from exercising, any other right, remedy, power or privilege even if the exercise thereof affects or eliminates any right of subrogation or any other right of such Subsidiary Guarantor against Borrower.

SECTION 8.6. SUBSIDIARY GUARANTOR’S WAIVERS. Each Subsidiary Guarantor waives, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, and agrees not to assert:

(i) any right to require Bank to proceed against Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person, or to pursue any other right, remedy, power or privilege of Bank whatsoever;

(ii) the defense of the statute of limitations in any action hereunder or for the collection or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations;

(iii) any defense arising by reason of any lack of corporate or other authority or any other defense of Borrower, such Guarantor or any other Person;

(iv) any defense based upon Bank’s errors or omissions in the administration of the Guaranteed Obligations;

(v) any rights to set-offs and counterclaims;

(vi) without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by applicable law limiting the liability of or exonerating guarantors or sureties, or that may conflict with the terms of this Article VIII, including any and all benefits that otherwise might be available to such Subsidiary Guarantor under California Civil Code Sections 1432, 2809, 2810, 2815, 2819, 2839, 2845, 2848, 2849, 2850, 2899 and 3433 and California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 580a, 580b, 580d and 726; and

(vii) any and all notice of the acceptance of this guaranty, and any and all notice of the creation, renewal, modification, extension or accrual of the Guaranteed Obligations, or the reliance by Bank upon this Guaranty, or the exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder. The Guaranteed Obligations shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted, incurred and permitted to exist in reliance upon this Guaranty. Each Subsidiary Guarantor waives promptness, diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment, notice of default, dishonor or nonpayment and all other notices to or upon Borrower, each Guarantor or any other Person with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations.

SECTION 8.7. FINANCIAL CONDITION OF BORROWER. No Subsidiary Guarantor shall have any right to require Bank to obtain or disclose any information with respect to: the financial condition or character of Borrower or the ability of Borrower to pay and perform the Guaranteed Obligations; the Guaranteed Obligations; any collateral or other security for any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations; the existence or nonexistence of any other guarantees of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations; any action or inaction on the part of Bank or any other Person; or any other matter, fact or occurrence whatsoever. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby acknowledges that it has undertaken its own independent investigation of the financial condition of Borrower and all other matters pertaining to this Guaranty and further acknowledges that it is not relying in any manner upon any representation or statement of Bank with respect thereto.

SECTION 8.8. SUBROGATION. Until the Guaranteed Obligations shall be satisfied in full and the commitment of Bank hereunder shall be terminated, no Subsidiary Guarantor shall directly or indirectly exercise: (i) any rights that it may acquire by way of subrogation under this Article VIII, by any payment hereunder or otherwise; (ii) any rights of contribution, indemnification, reimbursement or similar suretyship claims arising out of this Article VIII; or (iii) any other right that it might otherwise have or acquire (in any way whatsoever) that could entitle it at any time to share or participate in any right, remedy or security of Bank as against Borrower, any other Subsidiary Guarantor or any other Person, whether in connection with this Article VIII, any of the other Loan Documents or otherwise. If any amount shall be paid to any Subsidiary Guarantor on account of the foregoing rights at any time when all the Guaranteed Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of Bank and shall forthwith be paid to Bank to be credited and applied to the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents.

SECTION 8.9. SUBORDINATION. All payments on account of all indebtedness, liabilities and other obligations of Borrower to any Subsidiary Guarantor, whether now existing or hereafter arising, and whether due or to become due, absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, determined or undetermined (the “Subsidiary Guarantor Subordinated Debt”), shall be subject, subordinate and junior in right of payment and exercise of remedies, to the extent and in the manner set forth herein, to the prior payment in full in cash or cash equivalents of the Guaranteed Obligations. As long as any of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than unasserted contingent indemnification obligations) shall remain outstanding and unpaid, no Subsidiary Guarantor shall accept or receive any payment or distribution by or on behalf of Borrower, directly or indirectly, or assets of Borrower, of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, including on account of the purchase, redemption or other acquisition of Subsidiary Guarantor Subordinated Debt, as a result of any collection, sale or other disposition of collateral, or by setoff, exchange or in any other manner, for or on account of any Subsidiary Guarantor Subordinated Debt (“Subsidiary Guarantor Subordinated Debt Payments”), except that, so long as an Event of Default does not then exist, any Subsidiary Guarantor shall be entitled to accept and receive payments on its Subsidiary Guarantor Subordinated Debt, in accordance with past business practices of such Subsidiary Guarantor and Borrower and not in contravention of any Law or the terms of the Loan Documents.

If any Subsidiary Guarantor Subordinated Debt Payments shall be received in contravention of this Article VIII, such Subsidiary Guarantor Subordinated Debt Payments shall be held in trust for the benefit of Bank and shall be paid over or delivered to Bank for application to the payment in full in cash or cash equivalents of all Guaranteed Obligations remaining unpaid to the extent necessary to give effect to this Article VIII after giving effect to any concurrent payments or distributions to Bank in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations.

SECTION 8.10. CONTINUING GUARANTY. This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and agreement of subordination and shall continue in effect and be binding upon each Subsidiary Guarantor until termination of the commitment and payment and performance in full of the Guaranteed Obligations, including Guaranteed Obligations which may exist continuously or which may arise from time to time under successive transactions, and each Subsidiary Guarantor expressly acknowledges that this guaranty shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding that there may be periods in which no Guaranteed Obligations exist. This Guaranty shall continue in effect and be binding upon each Subsidiary Guarantor until actual receipt by Bank of written notice from such Subsidiary Guarantor of its intention to discontinue this Guaranty as to future transactions (which notice shall not be effective until noon on the day that is five Business Days following such receipt); provided that no revocation or termination of this guaranty shall affect in any way any rights of Bank hereunder with respect to any Guaranteed Obligations arising or outstanding on the date of receipt of such notice, including any subsequent continuation, extension, or renewal thereof, or change in the terms or conditions thereof, or any Guaranteed Obligations made or created after such date to the extent made or created pursuant to a legally binding commitment of Bank in existence as of the date of such revocation (collectively, “Existing Guaranteed Obligations”), and the sole effect of such notice shall be to exclude from this Guaranty Guaranteed Obligations thereafter arising which are unconnected to any Existing Guaranteed Obligations.

SECTION 8.11. REINSTATEMENT. This Guaranty shall continue to be effective or shall be reinstated and revived, as the case may be, if, for any reason, any payment of the Guaranteed Obligations by or on behalf of Borrower (or receipt of any proceeds of collateral) shall be rescinded, invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, voided or otherwise required to be repaid to Borrower, its estate, trustee, receiver or any other Person (including under any Bankruptcy Law), or must otherwise be restored by Bank, whether as a result of proceedings under any Bankruptcy Law or otherwise. All losses, damages, costs and expenses that Bank may suffer or incur as a result of any voided or otherwise set aside payments shall be specifically covered by the indemnity in favor of Bank contained in Section 9.3.

SECTION 8.12. SUBSTANTIAL BENEFITS. The Credit Extensions provided to or for the benefit of Borrower hereunder have been and are to be contemporaneously used for the benefit of Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor. It is the position, intent and expectation of the parties that Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor have derived and will derive significant and substantial benefits from the Credit Extensions to be made available under the Loan Documents. Each Subsidiary Guarantor has received at least “reasonably equivalent value” (as such phrase is used in Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code and in comparable provisions of other applicable law) and more than sufficient consideration to support its obligations hereunder in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations. Immediately prior to and after and giving effect to the incurrence of each Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty, such Subsidiary Guarantor will be Solvent.

SECTION 8.13. Knowing and Explicit Waivers. Each Subsidiary Guarantor acknowledges that it either has obtained the advice of legal counsel or has had the opportunity to obtain such advice in connection with the terms and provisions of this Article VIII. Each Subsidiary Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that each of the waivers and consents set forth herein is made with full knowledge of its significance and consequences, that all such waivers and consents herein are explicit and knowing and that each Subsidiary Guarantor expects such waivers and consents to be fully enforceable.

If, while any Subsidiary Guarantor Subordinated Debt is outstanding, any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law is commenced by or against Borrower or its property, Bank is hereby irrevocably authorized and empowered (in the name of Bank or in the name of any Subsidiary Guarantor or otherwise), but shall have no obligation, to demand, sue for, collect and receive every payment or distribution in respect of all Subsidiary Guarantor Subordinated Debt and give acquittances therefor and to file claims and proofs of claim and take such other action (including voting the Subsidiary Guarantor Subordinated Debt) as it may deem necessary or advisable for the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights or interests of Bank; and each Subsidiary Guarantor shall promptly take such action as Bank may reasonably request: (A) to collect the Subsidiary Guarantor Subordinated Debt for the account of Bank and to file appropriate claims or proofs of claim in respect of the Subsidiary Guarantor Subordinated Debt; (B) to execute and deliver to Bank such powers of attorney, assignments and other instruments as it may request to enable it to enforce any and all claims with respect to the Subsidiary Guarantor Subordinated Debt; and (C) to collect and receive any and all Subsidiary Guarantor Subordinated Debt Payments.

SECTION 8.14. COLLATERAL. As security for all of its Guaranty Obligations and all of other indebtedness and obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor to Bank hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents, each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby grants to Bank security interests of first priority in all Collateral in which such Subsidiary Guarantor has any right, title or interest, whether now existing or hereafter arising, acquired or created. All of the foregoing shall be evidenced by and subject to the terms of such security agreements, financing statements, deeds or mortgages, and other documents as Bank shall reasonably require, all in form and substance satisfactory to Bank. Each Subsidiary Guarantor shall pay to Bank immediately upon demand the full amount of all charges, costs and expenses (to include fees paid to third parties), expended or incurred by Bank in connection with any of the foregoing security, including filing and recording fees and costs of appraisals, audits and title insurance.

ARTICLE IX
MISCELLANEOUS

SECTION 9.1. NO WAIVER. No delay, failure or discontinuance of Bank in exercising any right, power or remedy under any of the Loan Documents shall affect or operate as a waiver of such right, power or remedy; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude, waive or otherwise affect any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind by Bank of any breach of or default under any of the Loan Documents must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent set forth in such writing.

(b) Indemnification by Borrower. Borrower shall indemnify each of Bank and its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors (each, and “Indemnified Party”) against, and hold each Indemnified Party harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnified Party), and shall indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Party from all fees and time charges and disbursements for attorneys, who may be employees of any Indemnified Party, incurred by any Indemnified Party or asserted against any Indemnified Party by any third party or by Borrower or any other Loan Party arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of: (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any document contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby; (ii) any Loan or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom; (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of toxic or hazardous waste or materials on or from any property owned or operated by Borrower, any Subsidiary thereof or any other Loan Party, or any Environmental Claim or Environmental Liability related in any way to Borrower, any Subsidiary thereof or any other Loan Party; or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by Borrower, any Subsidiary thereof or any other Loan Party, and regardless of whether any Indemnified Party is a party thereto, in all cases, whether or not caused by or arising, in whole or in part, out of the comparative, contributory or sole negligence of the Indemnified Party; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnified Party, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party.

(c) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws, each Loan Party shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnified Party, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any document contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof.

SECTION 9.11. ARBITRATION.

(a) Arbitration. The parties hereto agree, upon demand by any party, to submit to binding arbitration all claims, disputes and controversies between or among them (and their respective employees, officers, directors, attorneys, and other agents), whether in tort, contract or otherwise in any way arising out of or relating to (i) any credit subject hereto, or any of the Loan Documents, and their negotiation, execution, collateralization, administration, repayment, modification, extension, substitution, formation, inducement, enforcement, default or termination; or (ii) requests for additional credit.

(b) Governing Rules. Any arbitration proceeding will (i) proceed in a location in California selected by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”); (ii) be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (Title 9 of the United States Code), notwithstanding any conflicting choice of law provision in any of the documents between the parties; and (iii) be conducted by the AAA, or such other administrator as the parties shall mutually agree upon, in accordance with the AAA’s commercial dispute resolution procedures, unless the claim or counterclaim is at least $1,000,000.00 exclusive of claimed interest, arbitration fees and costs in which case the arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the AAA’s optional procedures for large, complex commercial disputes (the commercial dispute resolution procedures or the optional procedures for large, complex commercial disputes to be referred to herein, as applicable, as the “Rules”). If there is any inconsistency between the terms hereof and the Rules, the terms and procedures set forth herein shall control. Any party who fails or refuses to submit to arbitration following a demand by any other party shall bear all costs and expenses incurred by such other party in compelling arbitration of any dispute. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to be a waiver by any party that is a bank of the protections afforded to it under 12 U.S.C. §91 or any similar applicable state law.

(c) No Waiver of Provisional Remedies, Self-Help and Foreclosure. The arbitration requirement does not limit the right of any party to (i) foreclose against real or personal property collateral; (ii) exercise self-help remedies relating to collateral or proceeds of collateral such as setoff or repossession; or (iii) obtain provisional or ancillary remedies such as replevin, injunctive relief, attachment or the appointment of a receiver, before during or after the pendency of any arbitration proceeding. This exclusion does not constitute a waiver of the right or obligation of any party to submit any dispute to arbitration or reference hereunder, including those arising from the exercise of the actions detailed in sections (i), (ii) and (iii) of this paragraph.

(d) Arbitrator Qualifications and Powers. Any arbitration proceeding in which the amount in controversy is $5,000,000.00 or less will be decided by a single arbitrator selected according to the Rules, and who shall not render an award of greater than $5,000,000.00. Any dispute in which the amount in controversy exceeds $5,000,000.00 shall be decided by majority vote of a panel of three arbitrators; provided however, that all three arbitrators must actively participate in all hearings and deliberations. The arbitrator will be a neutral attorney licensed in the State of California or a neutral retired judge of the state or federal judiciary of California, in either case with a minimum of ten years experience in the substantive law applicable to the subject matter of the dispute to be arbitrated. The arbitrator will determine whether or not an issue is arbitratable and will give effect to the statutes of limitation in determining any claim. In any arbitration proceeding the arbitrator will decide (by documents only or with a hearing at the arbitrator’s discretion) any pre-hearing motions which are similar to motions to dismiss for failure to state a claim or motions for summary adjudication. The arbitrator shall resolve all disputes in accordance with the substantive law of California and may grant any remedy or relief that a court of such state could order or grant within the scope hereof and such ancillary relief as is necessary to make effective any award. The arbitrator shall also have the power to award recovery of all costs and fees, to impose sanctions and to take such other action as the arbitrator deems necessary to the same extent a judge could pursuant to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, the California Rules of Civil Procedure or other applicable law. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The institution and maintenance of an action for judicial relief or pursuit of a provisional or ancillary remedy shall not constitute a waiver of the right of any party, including the plaintiff, to submit the controversy or claim to arbitration if any other party contests such action for judicial relief.

(e) Discovery. In any arbitration proceeding, discovery will be permitted in accordance with the Rules. All discovery shall be expressly limited to matters directly relevant to the dispute being arbitrated and must be completed no later than 20 days before the hearing date. Any requests for an extension of the discovery periods, or any discovery disputes, will be subject to final determination by the arbitrator upon a showing that the request for discovery is essential for the party’s presentation and that no alternative means for obtaining information is available.

(f) Class Proceedings and Consolidations. No party hereto shall be entitled to join or consolidate disputes by or against others in any arbitration, except parties who have executed any Loan Document, or to include in any arbitration any dispute as a representative or member of a class, or to act in any arbitration in the interest of the general public or in a private attorney general capacity.

(g) Payment Of Arbitration Costs And Fees. The arbitrator shall award all costs and expenses of the arbitration proceeding.

(h) Real Property Collateral; Judicial Reference. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no dispute shall be submitted to arbitration if the dispute concerns indebtedness secured directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, by any real property unless (i) the holder of the mortgage, lien or security interest specifically elects in writing to proceed with the arbitration, or (ii) all parties to the arbitration waive any rights or benefits that might accrue to them by virtue of the single action rule statute of California, thereby agreeing that all indebtedness and obligations of the parties, and all mortgages, liens and security interests securing such indebtedness and obligations, shall remain fully valid and enforceable. If any such dispute is not submitted to arbitration, the dispute shall be referred to a referee in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure Section 638 et seq., and this general reference agreement is intended to be specifically enforceable in accordance with said Section 638. A referee with the qualifications required herein for arbitrators shall be selected pursuant to the AAA’s selection procedures. Judgment upon the decision rendered by a referee shall be entered in the court in which such proceeding was commenced in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 644 and 645.

(i) Miscellaneous. To the maximum extent practicable, the AAA, the arbitrators and the parties shall take all action required to conclude any arbitration proceeding within 180 days of the filing of the dispute with the AAA. No arbitrator or other party to an arbitration proceeding may disclose the existence, content or results thereof, except for disclosures of information by a party required in the ordinary course of its business or by applicable law or regulation. If more than one agreement for arbitration by or between the parties potentially applies to a dispute, the arbitration provision most directly related to the Loan Documents or the subject matter of the dispute shall control. This arbitration provision shall survive termination, amendment or expiration of any of the Loan Documents or any relationship between the parties.

(j) Small Claims Court. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each party retains the right to pursue in Small Claims Court any dispute within that court’s jurisdiction. Further, this arbitration provision shall apply only to disputes in which either party seeks to recover an amount of money (excluding attorneys’ fees and costs) that exceeds the jurisdictional limit of the Small Claims Court.

SECTION 9.12 RIGHT OF SETOFF.

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Bank and its Affiliates are hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by Bank to or for the credit or the account of Borrower or any other Loan Party against any and all of the Obligations to Bank or such Affiliate, irrespective of whether or not Bank shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of Borrower or such Loan Party may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of Bank different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such obligations. The rights of Bank and its Affiliates under this Section 9.12 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that Bank or its Affiliates may have. Bank agrees to notify Borrower promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

SECTION 9.13 COUNTERPARTS; INTEGRATION; EFFECTIVENESS.

This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire agreement among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous documents, agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.1, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed and delivered by Bank and when Bank shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

SECTION 9.14 SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.

All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by Bank, regardless of any investigation made by Bank or on its behalf and notwithstanding that Bank may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Credit Extension, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation (other than unasserted contingent indemnification obligations) shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied.

SECTION 9.15 SEVERABILITY.

If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 9.16 USA PATRIOT ACT NOTICE.

Bank hereby notifies Borrower that, pursuant to the requirements of the Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies Borrower and each other Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of Borrower and each other Loan Party and other information that will allow Bank to identify Borrower and each other Loan Party in accordance with the USA PATRIOT Act.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be executed as of the day and year first written above.

Any increase or decrease in the Applicable Rate resulting from a change in the Consolidated Leverage Ratio shall become effective as of the first Business Day immediately following the date a Compliance Certificate is delivered pursuant to Section 5.3(c); provided, that if a Compliance Certificate is not delivered when due in accordance with such Section, then Pricing Level 1 shall apply, in each case as of the third Business Day after the date on which such Compliance Certificate was required to have been delivered and in each case shall remain in effect until the date on which such Compliance Certificate is delivered. Notwithstanding the foregoing and for the avoidance of doubt, if, for any period and for any reason, the actual Consolidated Leverage Ratio is higher than that reported in the related Compliance Certificate delivered for such period, then Borrower shall immediately, without the requirement of notice or demand from any Person, pay to Bank an amount equal to the excess of: (A) the amount of interest or fees that would have accrued had the Applicable Rates for such period been based upon the actual Consolidated Leverage Ratio for such period rather than the Consolidated Leverage Ratio reported in the Compliance Certificate delivered for such period; over (B) the amount of interest or fees that was actually paid by Borrower based upon the Consolidated Leverage Ratio reported in the Compliance Certificate delivered for such period.
