Lender shall, at the Borrower’s expense, release or terminate the Security Interest and the Security Documents to which the Borrower is entitled by law.

Mandatory Prepayment.

SECURITY INTEREST; OCCUPANCY; SETOFF

Grant of Security Interest.

The Borrower hereby pledges, assigns and grants to the Lender a lien and security interest (collectively referred to as the “Security Interest”) in the Collateral, as security for the payment and performance of the Obligations. Upon request by the Lender, the Borrower will grant the Lender a security interest in all commercial tort claims it may have against any Person.

The Borrower will join in giving such notice if the Lender so requests. At any time after the Borrower or the Lender gives such notice to an Account Debtor or other obligor, the Lender may, but need not, in the Lender’s name or in the Borrower’s name, demand, sue for, collect or receive any money or property at any time payable or receivable on account of, or securing, any such right to payment, or grant any extension to, make any compromise or settlement with or otherwise agree to waive, modify, amend or change the obligations (including collateral obligations) of any such Account Debtor or other obligor.

Assignment of Insurance.

As additional security for the payment and performance of the Obligations, the Borrower hereby assigns to the Lender any and all monies (including proceeds of insurance and refunds of unearned premiums) due or to become due under, and all other rights of the Borrower with respect to, any and all policies of insurance now or at any time hereafter covering the Collateral or any evidence thereof or any business records or valuable papers pertaining thereto, and the Borrower hereby directs the issuer of any such policy to pay all such monies directly to the Lender. At any time, whether or not a Default Period then exists, the Lender may (but need not), in the Lender’s name or in the Borrower’s name, execute and deliver proof of claim, receive all such monies, endorse checks and other instruments representing payment of such monies, and adjust, litigate, compromise or release any claim against the issuer of any such policy.

Section 3.4 Occupancy.

(a) The Borrower hereby irrevocably grants to the Lender the right to take exclusive possession of the Premises at any time during a Default Period, subject to the terms of the lease agreements respecting such Premises.

(c) The Lender’s right to hold the Premises shall cease and terminate upon the earlier of (i) payment in full and discharge of all Obligations and termination of the Credit Facility, and (ii) final sale or disposition of all goods constituting Collateral and delivery of all such goods to purchasers.

(d) The Lender shall not be obligated to pay or account for any rent or other compensation for the possession, occupancy or use of any of the Premises; provided, however, that if the Lender does pay or account for any rent or other compensation for the possession, occupancy or use of any of the Premises, the Borrower shall reimburse the Lender promptly for the full amount thereof. In addition, the Borrower will pay, or reimburse the Lender for, all taxes,

fees, duties, imposts, charges and expenses at any time incurred by or imposed upon the Lender by reason of the execution, delivery, existence, recordation, performance or enforcement of this Agreement or the provisions of this Section 3.4.

Section 3.5 License.

(a) the Lender may, by notice to the Borrower, declare the Commitment to be terminated, whereupon the same shall forthwith terminate;

(b) the Lender may, by notice to the Borrower, declare the Obligations to be forthwith due and payable, whereupon all Obligations shall become and be forthwith due and payable, without presentment, notice of dishonor, protest or further notice of any kind, all of which the Borrower hereby expressly waives;

(c) the Lender may, without notice to the Borrower and without further action, apply any and all money owing by the Lender to the Borrower to the payment of the Obligations;

(d) the Lender may settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with Account Debtors for amounts and upon terms which the Lender considers advisable, and in such cases, the Lender will credit the Obligations with only the net amounts received by the Lender in payment of such disputed Accounts after deducting all expenses incurred or expended by the Lender in connection therewith;

(e) the Lender may cause the Borrower to hold all returned Inventory in trust for the Lender, segregate all returned Inventory from all other assets of the Borrower or in the Borrower’s possession and conspicuously label said returned Inventory as the property of the Lender;

(f) without notice to or demand upon the Borrower or any Guarantor, the Lender may make such payments and do such acts as the Lender considers necessary or reasonable to protect its security interests in the Collateral. The Borrower agrees to assemble the Collateral if the Lender so requires, and to make the Collateral available to the Lender at a place that the Lender may designate which is reasonably convenient to both parties. The Borrower authorizes Lender to enter the premises where the Collateral is located, to take and maintain possession of the Collateral, or any part of it, and to pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any Lien that in the Lender’s determination appears to conflict with the Lender’s Liens and to pay all

expenses incurred in connection therewith and to charge the Obligations therefor. With respect to any of the Borrower’s owned or leased premises, the Borrower hereby grants the Lender a license to enter into possession of such premises and to occupy the same, without charge, in order to exercise any of the Lender’s rights or remedies provided herein, at law, in equity, or otherwise;

(g) without notice to Borrower (such notice being expressly waived), and without constituting a retention of any collateral in satisfaction of an obligation (within the meaning of the UCC), the Lender may set off and apply to the Obligations any and all (i) balances and deposits of the Borrower held by the Lender (including any amounts received in the Lockbox), or (ii) Indebtedness at any time owing to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower held by Lender;

(h) the Lender may hold, as cash collateral, any and all balances and deposits of the Borrower held by the Lender, and any amounts received in the Lockbox, to secure the full and final repayment of all of the Obligations;

(i) the Lender may ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell (in the manner provided for herein) the Collateral;

(j) the Lender may sell the Collateral at either a public or private sale, or both, by way of one or more contracts or transactions, for cash or on terms, in such manner and at such places (including the Borrower’s premises) as the Lender determines is commercially reasonable. It is not necessary that the Collateral be present at any such sale;

(k) the Lender shall give notice of the disposition of the Collateral as follows:

(i) The Lender shall give the Borrower a notice in writing of the time and place of public sale, or, if the sale is a private sale or some other disposition other than a public sale is to be made of the Collateral, the time on or after which the private sale or other disposition is to be made; and

(ii) The notice shall be personally delivered or mailed, postage prepaid, to the Borrower as provided in Section 8.3, at least 10 days before the earliest time of disposition set forth in the notice; no notice needs to be given prior to the disposition of any portion of the Collateral that is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or that is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market;

(l) the Lender may credit bid and purchase at any public sale;

(m) the Lender may seek the appointment of a receiver or keeper to take possession of all or any portion of the Collateral or to operate same and, to the maximum extent permitted by law, may seek the appointment of such a receiver without the requirement of prior notice or a hearing;

(n) If the Lender sells any of the Collateral on credit, the Obligations will be reduced only to the extent of payments actually received. If the purchaser fails to pay for the Collateral, the Lender may resell the Collateral and shall apply any proceeds actually received to the Obligations;

(o) the Lender shall have no obligation to attempt to satisfy the Obligations by collecting them from any third Person which may be liable for them or any portion thereof, and the Lender may release, modify or waive any collateral provided by any other Person as security for the Obligations or any portion thereof, all without affecting the Lender’s rights against the Borrower. The Borrower waives any right it may have to require the Lender to pursue any third Person for any of the Obligations;

(p) the Lender may make demand upon the Borrower and, forthwith upon such demand, the Borrower will pay to the Lender in immediately available funds for deposit in the Special Account pursuant to Section 2.17 an amount equal to the aggregate maximum amount available to be drawn under all Letters of Credit then outstanding, assuming compliance with all conditions for drawing thereunder;

(q) the Lender may exercise and enforce its rights and remedies under the Loan Documents; and

(r) the Lender may exercise any other rights and remedies available to it by law or agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described in subsections (e) or (f) of Section 7.1, the Obligations shall be immediately due and payable automatically without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind.

Disclaimer of Warranties.

The Lender may sell the Collateral without giving any warranties as to the Collateral. The Lender may specifically disclaim any warranties of title or the like. This procedure will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral.

Compliance With Laws.

The Lender may comply with any applicable state or federal law requirements in connection with a disposition of the Collateral, and the Lender’s compliance therewith will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral.

Section 7.5 No Marshalling.

The Lender shall be under no obligation to marshal any assets in favor of the Borrower, or against or in payment of the Obligations or any other obligation owned to the Lender by the Borrower or any other Person.

Borrower to Cooperate.

Upon the exercise by the Lender of any power, right, privilege, or remedy pursuant to this Agreement which requires any consent, approval, registration, qualification, or authorization of any Governmental Authority, the Borrower agrees to execute and deliver, or will cause the execution and delivery of, all applications, certificates, instruments, assignments, and other documents and papers that the Lender or any purchaser of the Collateral may be required to obtain for such governmental consent, approval, registration, qualification, or authorization.

Application of Proceeds.

All proceeds realized as the result of any sale of the Collateral shall be applied by the Lender:

FIRST to the costs, expenses, liabilities, obligations and attorneys’ fees incurred by the Lender in the exercise of its rights under this Agreement;

SECOND to the interest and fees due upon any of the Obligations; and

THIRD to the principal of the Obligations, in such order as the Lender shall determine in its sole discretion. Any surplus shall be paid to the Borrower or other Persons legally entitled thereto; the Borrower shall remain liable to the Lender for any deficiency.

Remedies Cumulative.

The rights and remedies of the Lender under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and all other agreements contemplated hereby and thereby shall be cumulative. The Lender shall have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as provided under the UCC, by law, or in equity. No exercise by the Lender of any one right or remedy shall be deemed an election of remedies, and no waiver by the Lender of any default on the Borrower’s part shall be deemed a continuing waiver of any further defaults.

Lender Not Liable For The Collateral.

So long as the Lender complies with the obligations, if any, imposed by the UCC, the Lender shall not otherwise be liable or responsible in any way or manner for: (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any loss or damage thereto occurring or arising in any manner or fashion or from any cause; (c) any diminution in the value thereof; or (d) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, forwarding agency, or other person whomsoever. The Borrower bears the risk of loss or damage of the Collateral.

ARTICLE VIII

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 8.1 No Waiver.

No failure or delay by the Lender in exercising any right, power or remedy under the Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy under the Loan Documents.

Amendments, Etc.

No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom or any release of a Security Interest shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Lender, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. No notice to or demand on the Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

Addresses for Notices; Requests for Accounting.

Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices, requests, demands and other communications provided for under the Loan Documents shall be in writing and shall be (a) personally delivered, (b) sent by first class United States mail, (c) sent by overnight courier of national reputation, or (d) transmitted by telecopy, in each case addressed or telecopied to the party to whom notice is being given at its address or telecopier number as set forth below next to its signature or, as to each party, at such other address or telecopier number as may hereafter be designated by such party in a written notice to the other party complying as to delivery with the terms of this Section. All such notices, requests, demands and other communications shall be deemed to have been given on (a) the date received if personally delivered, (b) when deposited in the mail if delivered by mail, (c) the date sent if sent by overnight courier, or (d) the date of transmission if delivered by telecopy, except that notices or requests to the Lender pursuant to any of the provisions of Article II shall not be effective until received by the Lender. All requests under Section 9210 of the UCC (i) shall be made in a writing signed by a person authorized under Section 2.2(b), (ii) shall be personally delivered, sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, or by overnight courier of national reputation (iii) shall be deemed to be sent when received by the Lender and (iv) shall otherwise comply with the requirements of Section 9210. The Borrower requests that the Lender respond to all such requests which on their face appear to come from an authorized individual and releases the Lender from any liability for so responding. The Borrower shall pay Lender the maximum amount allowed by law for responding to such requests.

Section 8.4 Intentionally Omitted.

Further Documents.

The Borrower will from time to time execute and deliver or endorse any and all instruments, documents, conveyances, assignments, security agreements, financing statements, control agreements and other agreements and writings that the Lender may reasonably request in order to secure, protect, perfect or enforce the Security Interest or the Lender’s rights under the Loan Documents (but any failure to request or assure that the Borrower executes, delivers or endorses

any such item shall not affect or impair the validity, sufficiency or enforceability of the Loan Documents and the Security Interest, regardless of whether any such item was or was not executed, delivered or endorsed in a similar context or on a prior occasion).

Costs and Expenses.

The Borrower shall pay on demand all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by the Lender in connection with the Obligations, this Agreement, the Loan Documents, any Letter of Credit and any other document or agreement related hereto or thereto, and the transactions contemplated hereby, including all such costs, expenses and fees incurred in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution, amendment, administration, performance, collection and enforcement of the Obligations and all such documents and agreements and the creation, perfection, protection, satisfaction, foreclosure or enforcement of the Security Interest.

Section 8.7 Indemnity.

In addition to the payment of expenses pursuant to Section 8.6, the Borrower shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Lender, and any of its participants, parent corporations, subsidiary corporations, affiliated corporations, successor corporations, and all present and future officers, directors, employees, attorneys and agents of the foregoing (the “Indemnitees”) from and against any of the following (collectively, “Indemnified Liabilities”):

(i) any and all transfer taxes, documentary taxes, assessments or charges made by any governmental authority by reason of the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents or the making of the Advances;

(ii) any claims, loss or damage to which any Indemnitee may be subjected if any representation or warranty contained in Section 5.14 proves to be incorrect in any respect or as a result of any violation of the covenant contained in Section 6.12(b); and

(iii) any and all other liabilities, losses, damages, penalties, judgments, suits, claims, costs and expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) in connection with the foregoing and any other investigative, administrative or judicial proceedings, whether or not such Indemnitee shall be designated a party thereto, which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such Indemnitee, in any manner related to or arising out of or in connection with the making of the Advances and the Loan Documents or the use or intended use of the proceeds of the Advances.

If any investigative, judicial or administrative proceeding arising from any of the foregoing is brought against any Indemnitee, upon such Indemnitee’s request, the Borrower, or counsel designated by the Borrower and satisfactory to the Indemnitee, will resist and defend such action, suit or proceeding to the extent and in the manner directed by the Indemnitee, at the Borrower’s sole costs and expense. Each Indemnitee will use its best efforts to cooperate in the defense of any such action, suit or proceeding. If the foregoing undertaking to indemnify, defend and hold harmless may be held to be unenforceable because it violates any law or public policy, the

Borrower shall nevertheless make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law. The Borrower’s obligation under this Section 8.7 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the discharge of the Borrower’s other obligations hereunder.

Section 8.8 Participants.

The Borrower hereby authorizes the Lender to disclose to any assignee or any participant (either, a “Transferee”) and any prospective Transferee any and all financial information in the Lender’s possession concerning Borrower which has been delivered to the Lender by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or which has been delivered to the Lender by the Borrower in connection with the Lender’s credit evaluation prior to entering into this Agreement. The Lender and its participants, if any, are not partners or joint venturers, and the Lender shall not have any liability or responsibility for any obligation, act or omission of any of its participants.

Execution in Counterparts; Telefacsimile Execution.

This Agreement and other Loan Documents may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original and all of which counterparts, taken together, shall constitute but one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Agreement by telefacsimile shall be equally as effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement. Any party delivering an executed counterpart of this Agreement by telefacsimile also shall deliver an original executed counterpart of this Agreement but the failure to deliver an original executed counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, and binding effect of this Agreement.

Retention of Borrower’s Records.

Binding Effect; Assignment; Complete Agreement; Exchanging Information.

The Loan Documents shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower and the Lender and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Borrower shall not have the right to assign its rights thereunder or any interest therein without the Lender’s prior written consent. To the extent permitted by law, the Borrower waives and will not assert against any

assignee any claims, defenses or set-offs which the Borrower could assert against the Lender. This Agreement shall also bind all Persons who become a party to this Agreement as a borrower. This Agreement, together with the Loan Documents, comprises the complete and integrated agreement of the parties on the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, on the subject matter hereof. Without limiting the Lender’s right to share information regarding the Borrower and its Affiliates with the Lender’s participants, accountants, lawyers and other advisors, the Lender, Wells Fargo & Company, and all direct and indirect subsidiaries of Wells Fargo & Company, may exchange any and all information they may have in their possession regarding the Borrower and its Affiliates, and the Borrower waives any right of confidentiality it may have with respect to such exchange of such information.

Severability of Provisions.

Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof.

Revival and Reinstatement of Obligations.

If the incurrence or payment of the Obligations by the Borrower or any Guarantor or the transfer to the Lender of any property should for any reason subsequently be declared to be void or voidable under any state or federal law relating to creditors’ rights, including provisions of the Bankruptcy Code relating to fraudulent conveyances, preferences, or other voidable or recoverable payments of money or transfers of property (collectively, a “Voidable Transfer”), and if the Lender is required to repay or restore, in whole or in part, any such Voidable Transfer, or elects to do so upon the reasonable advice of its counsel, then, as to any such Voidable Transfer, or the amount thereof that the Lender is required or elects to repay or restore, and as to all reasonable costs, expenses, and attorneys fees of the Lender related thereto, the liability of the Borrower or any Guarantor automatically shall be revived, reinstated, and restored and shall exist as though such Voidable Transfer had never been made.

Section 8.15 Headings.

Article, Section and subsection headings in this Agreement are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose.
