If at any time any change in GAAP would affect the computation of any amount set forth in any Loan Document, and either the Borrower or the Required Lenders shall so request, the Lenders and the Borrower shall negotiate in good faith to amend such requirement to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such change in GAAP (subject to the approval of the Required Lenders); provided that, until so amended, (i) such requirement shall continue to be computed in accordance with GAAP prior to such change therein and (ii) the Borrower shall provide to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders financial statements any other documents required under this Agreement or as reasonably requested hereunder setting forth a reconciliation between calculations of such requirement made before and after giving effect to such change in GAAP.

(c) Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities. All references herein to consolidated financial statements of Holdings and its Subsidiaries or of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries or to the determination of any amount of Holdings and its Subsidiaries or the Borrower and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis or any similar reference shall, in each case, be deemed to include each variable interest entity that Holdings or the Borrower is required to consolidate pursuant to FASB Interpretation No. 46 – Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities; an interpretation of ARB No. 51 (January 2003) as if such variable interest entity were a Subsidiary as defined herein.

Section 1.04 Annualization; Rounding. If any determination hereunder is required by the terms hereof to be made for a period of four consecutive fiscal quarters at a time at which fewer than four full fiscal quarters have elapsed since the Closing Date, such determination shall (except as otherwise expressly provided herein) be made for the period elapsed from the Closing Date through the most recent fiscal quarter then ended (annualized on a simple arithmetic basis, if such determination is to be used in a ratio with a balance sheet item).

Section 1.05 Times of Day. Unless otherwise specified, all references herein to times of day shall be references to Eastern time (daylight or standard, as applicable).

ARTICLE II
THE CREDIT FACILITIES

Section 2.01 Commitments to Lend.

(a) Loan. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender severally agrees to make a Loan in accordance with its Commitment Percentage to the Borrower on the Closing Date in a principal amount not exceeding the lesser of (i) its Commitment and (ii) the sum of the Acquisition Price plus the transaction fees and expenses disclosed on Schedule 1.01B. The Borrowing shall be made from the several Lenders ratably in proportion to their respective Commitment Percentages. The Commitment is not revolving in nature, and amounts repaid or prepaid prior to the Maturity Date may not be reborrowed.

Section 2.02 Evidence of Loans.

(a) Lender and Administrative Agent Accounts; Notes. The Loans made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be presumptively correct absent manifest error of the amount of the Loan made by the Lenders to the Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower hereunder to pay any

- 29 -

amount owing with respect to the Senior Credit Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative Agent) a single Note substantially in the form of Exhibit B payable to the order of such Lender for the account of its Lending Office in an amount equal to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of such Lender’s Loans which shall evidence such Lender’s Loans in addition to such accounts or records.

Section 2.03 Interest.

(a) Eurodollar Rate Loans. Subject to Sections 3.02 and 3.03 of this Agreement, each Borrowing shall be comprised of Eurodollar Loans, with an Interest Period as the Borrower may request in writing at least three Business Days prior to the Closing Date; provided, that if a Eurodollar Loan is unavailable pursuant to Section 3.02 of this Agreement, Borrowings will be comprised entirely of Base Rate Loans.

(b) Rates Applicable to Loans. Subject to the provisions of subsection (c) below, each Eurodollar Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Period applicable thereto at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin. If a Eurodollar Loan is unavailable pursuant to Section 3.02 of this Agreement, each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each day from the date such Loan is made as, or converted into, a Base Rate Loan until it becomes due or is converted into a Eurodollar Loan, at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate for such day plus the Applicable Margin.

(i) If any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Loan shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.

(ii) Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand.

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

(e) Determination and Notice of Interest Rates. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Interest Period for Eurodollar Loans (or Base Rate Loans, if applicable) upon determination of such interest rate.

Section 2.04 Extension and Conversion.

(a) Continuation and Conversion Options. The Borrower shall have the option, on any Business Day (subject in each case to the provisions of Article III) to continue such Loans as Eurodollar Loans for an additional Interest Period, subject to Section 3.05 in the case of any such conversion or continuation effective on any day other than the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such Loans. Each such election shall be made by delivering a notice, substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (a “Notice of Extension/Conversion”) (which may be by telephone if promptly confirmed in writing), to the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 Noon on the third Business Day before the conversion or

- 30 -

continuation selected in such notice is to be effective. A Notice of Extension/Conversion may, if it so specifies, apply to only a portion of the aggregate principal amount of the Loan; provided that the portion of Eurodollar Loans to which such Notice applies is $5,000,000 or any larger multiple of $1,000,000.

(b) Contents of Notice of Extension/Conversion. Each Notice of Extension/Conversion shall specify:

(i) the Group of Loans (or portion thereof) to which such notice applies;

(ii) the date on which the conversion or continuation selected in such notice is to be effective, which shall comply with the applicable clause of subsection 2.04(a) above; and

(iii) if the Loans comprising such Group are to be converted, the new type of Loans.

Each Interest Period specified in a Notice of Interest Rate Election shall comply with the provisions of the definition of the term “Interest Period”. If no Notice of Extension/Conversion is timely received prior to the end of an Interest Period for any Group of Eurodollar Loans, the Borrower shall be deemed to have elected that such Group be continued from the existing Interest Period.

(c) Notification to Lenders. Upon receipt of a Notice of Extension/Conversion from the Borrower pursuant to subsection 2.04(a) above, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the contents thereof.

Section 2.05 Maturity of Loans.

The Loans shall mature on the Maturity Date, and any principal amount then outstanding (together with accrued interest thereon and fees in respect thereof) shall be due and payable on such date.

Section 2.06 Prepayments.

(a) Voluntary Prepayments. The Borrower shall have the right voluntarily to prepay the Loan in whole or in part from time to time, subject to Section 2.06(c) and Section 3.05, but otherwise without premium or penalty; provided, however, that (i) each partial prepayment shall be in a minimum principal amount of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, in the case of Eurodollar Loans, and $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof, in the case of Base Rate Loans and (ii) the Borrower shall have given prior written or telecopy notice (or telephone notice promptly confirmed by written or telecopy notice) to the Administrative Agent, by 11:00 A.M., at least three Business Days prior to the date of prepayment. Each notice of prepayment shall specify the prepayment date, the principal amount to be prepaid, whether the Loan to be prepaid is a Eurodollar Loan or a Base Rate Loan and, in the case of a Eurodollar Loan, the Interest Period of such Loan. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s pro-rata share, if any, thereof. If such notice is given by the Borrower, the Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable as specified therein. Subject to the foregoing, amounts prepaid under this Section 2.06(a) shall be applied first to pay all accrued and unpaid interest on the portion of the Loan being prepaid and then to pay the unpaid principal amount of the portion of the Loan being prepaid. Subject to the foregoing, amounts prepaid under this Section 2.06(a) shall be applied first to Base Rate Loans and then to Eurodollar Loans, unless the Borrower requests otherwise and pays any breakage fees incurred in connection therewith and due under Section 3.05. All prepayments of Eurodollar Loans under this Section 2.06(a) shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the principal amount being prepaid to the date of payment, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05.

- 31 -

(b) Mandatory Prepayments.

(i) Excess Cash Flow. Within 60 days after the end of each fiscal quarter (commencing with the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2006), the Borrower shall prepay the Loan in an amount equal to 100% of the Excess Cash Flow for such fiscal quarter, less the portion thereof that the Borrower deposits into a deposit account in which the Collateral Agent has a security interest on behalf of itself and the Lenders, so long as the total cash and Cash Equivalents of the Group Companies does not exceed $6,000,000 immediately after giving effect to such deposit and prepayment.

(ii) Asset Dispositions, Casualties and Condemnations, etc. Promptly (but in any event within five Business Days) upon receipt by any Group Company of Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Disposition (other than any Excluded Asset Disposition), Casualty or Condemnation or any cash or Cash Equivalents paid to any Group Company or their Affiliates under the Acquisition Agreement (including as a result of any indemnity payment by the Seller (including through any amounts held in escrow) to any Group Company or their Affiliates), the Borrower shall, unless a Reinvestment Notice has been delivered, prepay the Loan in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds of such Asset Disposition, Casualty or Condemnation or 100% of such cash or Cash Equivalents paid pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement.

(iii) Debt Issuances. Immediately upon receipt by any Group Company of Net Cash Proceeds from any Debt Issuance (other than any Debt Issuance permitted pursuant to Section 7.01 of this Agreement), the Borrower shall prepay the Loan in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds of such Debt Issuance.

(iv) Equity Issuances. Immediately upon receipt by any Group Company of Net Cash Proceeds from any Equity Issuance (other than any Excluded Equity Issuance), the Borrower shall prepay the Loan in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds of such Equity Issuance.

(c) Prepayment Premium. Whenever any (i) prepayment of principal of the Loan is made (including by reason of the provisions of this Section 2.06) or (ii) repayment of principal of the Loan is required as a result of a declaration pursuant to Article VIII that the Loan is due and payable, the Borrower shall on the date of such prepayment or declaration, as applicable, pay to the Lenders a prepayment premium equal to (A) if such prepayment or declaration occurs prior to the date that is two years after the Closing Date, the Make-Whole Premium with respect to the principal amount of the Loan or portion thereof so prepaid and (B) if such prepayment or declaration occurs after the date that is two years after the Closing Date and prior to the Maturity Date, 2.0% of the principal amount of the Loan or portion thereof so prepaid; provided that no such prepayment premium shall be required in respect of (i) any prepayments of principal of the Loan under Section 2.06(b)(i) in respect of Excess Cash Flow and (ii) and prepayments of principal of the Loan that is made pursuant to Section 2.06(b)(ii) in respect of Net Cash Proceeds from a Casualty or Condemnation.

Section 2.07 Fees.

The Borrower shall pay to each Lender on the Closing Date for the Lender’s own respective account a cash funding fee in an amount equal to 1.50% of such Lender’s Commitment. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever.

Section 2.08 Pro-rata Treatment. Each payment or prepayment of principal of or interest on any Loan, each payment of fees and each conversion or continuation of the Loan shall be allocated pro-rata among the relevant Lenders in accordance with the respective Commitment Percentages of such Lenders

- 32 -

(or, if the Commitments of such Lenders have expired or been terminated, in accordance with the respective principal amounts of the outstanding Loans of such Lenders); provided that, in the event any amount paid to any Lender pursuant to this Section 2.08 is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the Administrative Agent, each Lender shall, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, repay to the Administrative Agent the amount so paid to such Lender, with interest for the period commencing on the date such payment is returned by the Administrative Agent until the date the Administrative Agent receives such repayment at a rate per annum equal to, during the period to but excluding the date two Business Days after such request, the Federal Funds Rate, and thereafter, the Base Rate plus 2.00% per annum.

Section 2.09 Payments Generally; Administrative Agent’s Clawback.

(a) Payments by the Borrower. All payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Each payment of principal of and interest on the Loan and fees hereunder shall be paid not later than 2:00 P.M. on the date when due, in Federal or other funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent at the account designated by it by notice to the Borrower. Payments received after 2:00 P.M. shall be deemed to have been received on the next Business Day, and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. All payments made in cash by Parent pursuant to the Parent Preferred Stock shall, to the extent set forth in Section 8.03, be considered payments of principal hereunder for purposes of calculating the remaining outstanding principal amount hereunder. The Borrower shall, at the time it makes any payments under this Agreement, specify to the Administrative Agent the fees or other amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder to which such payment is to be applied (and if it fails to specify or if such application would be inconsistent with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall, subject to Section 2.08, distribute such payment to the Lenders in such manner as the Administrative Agent may deem reasonably appropriate). The Administrative Agent may in its sole discretion distribute such payments to the applicable Lenders on the date of receipt thereof, if such payment is received prior to 2:00 P.M.; otherwise the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, distribute such payment to the applicable Lenders on the date of receipt thereof or on the immediately succeeding Business Day. Whenever any payment hereunder shall be due on a day which is not a Business Day, the date for payment thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day (and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be), unless (in the case of Eurodollar Loans) such Business Day falls in another calendar month, in which case the date for payment thereof shall be the next preceding Business Day. If the date for any payment of principal is extended by operation of Law or otherwise, interest thereon shall be payable for such extended time. Effective during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Borrower hereby authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to debit any account maintained by the Borrower with the Administrative Agent to pay when due any amounts required to be paid from time to time under this Agreement.

(b) Payments by Borrower; Presumptions by the Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice (which may be by telephone if promptly confirmed in writing) from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith, and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender, in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such is amount is distributed to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

(c) Failure to Satisfy Conditions Precedent. If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for the Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent because

- 33 -

the conditions set forth in Article IV are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender without interest.

(d) Obligations of Lenders Several. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make a Loan required to be made by it as part of any Borrowing hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make the Loan, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Loan to be made by such other Lender.

(e) Funding Source. Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for the Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for the Loan in any particular place or manner.

(f) Computations. All computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed. Interest shall accrue on the Loan for the day on which Loan is made (or converted or continued), and shall not accrue on the Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid, provided that if the Loan is repaid on the same day on which it is made (or continued or converted), it shall, subject to subsection (a) above, bear interest for one day. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be presumptively correct, absent manifest error.

ARTICLE III
TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

Section 3.01 Taxes.

(a) Payments Free of Taxes. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or by applicable law, any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, provided that if the Borrower shall be required by applicable Law to deduct any Indemnified Taxes (including any Other Taxes) from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent or Lender, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall not be required to increase any such payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document with respect to any Taxes (i) that are attributable to the Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s failure to comply with the requirements of subsection (e) of this Section or (ii) that are United States withholding taxes imposed on amounts payable to such Administrative Agent or Lender at the time such Administrative Agent or Lender becomes a party to this Agreement, except to the extent that such Administrative Agent’s or Lender’s assignor (if any) was entitled, at the time of assignment, to receive additional amounts from the Borrower with respect to such Taxes pursuant to this subsection (a).

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) above, the Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law.

(c) Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes

- 34 -

or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes, Other Taxes or Excluded Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) that Borrower was required to pay pursuant to subsection (a) above and that was paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, excluding any penalties or interest that arise because of the Administrative Agent’s or Lender’s failure to take any action required by applicable law. Payments under this subsection (c) shall be made within 30 days after the date such Lender or Administrative Agent makes a written demand therefore accompanied by either (i) a copy of the receipt issued by a Governmental Authority evidencing the Lender’s or Administrative Agent’s payment of such Indemnified Taxes, Other Taxes and applicable Excluded Taxes, or (ii) if the Lender or Administrative Agent determines that it is unable to provide a copy of such receipt without making its tax returns available to the Borrower, a certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability prepared in good faith.

(d) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes pursuant to subsection (a) above by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Status of Lenders. Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the Law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is resident for tax purposes, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement and at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable Law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender that is not a Foreign Lender, if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, but only if such Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do so), whichever of the following is applicable:

(i) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party;

(ii) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI;

(iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the Code, (A) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (x) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (y) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (z) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (B) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, or

(iv) any other form prescribed by applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States Federal withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

- 35 -

Each Foreign Lender shall (i) promptly notify Borrower at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered certificate to the Borrower (or any other form of certification adopted by the United States taxing authorities for such purpose) and (ii) take such steps as shall not be materially disadvantageous to it, in the reasonable judgment of the Foreign Lender, and as may be reasonably necessary (including designating a different Lending Office under Section 3.07(a)) to avoid any requirement of applicable laws of any such jurisdiction that Borrower make any deduction or withholding for taxes from amount payable to such Foreign Lender.

Furthermore, each Lender that is not a Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, or any subsequent versions or successors to such form.

(f) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If the Administrative Agent or any Lender determines, in its good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall promptly pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority provided further that in no event shall the Borrower be required to pay the Administrative Agent or any Lender an amount in excess of the amount received under this Section 3.01(f). This subsection shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

Section 3.02 Illegality. If, on or after the date of this Agreement, the adoption of any applicable Law, or any change in any applicable Law, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender (or its Lending Office) with any request or directive having the force of Law of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency first made after the Effective Date shall make it unlawful or impossible for any Lender (or its Lending Office) to make, maintain or fund any of its Eurodollar Loans and such Lender shall so notify the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the other Lenders and the Borrower, whereupon, until such Lender notifies the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist (which it shall do reasonably promptly), the obligation of such Lender to make Eurodollar Loans, or to convert outstanding Loans into Eurodollar Loans, shall be suspended. Before giving any notice to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 3.02, such Lender shall designate a different Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for giving such notice and will not, in the judgment of such Lender, be otherwise materially disadvantageous to such Lender. If such notice is given, each Eurodollar Loan of such Lender then outstanding shall be converted to a Base Rate Loan either (i) on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such Eurodollar Loan, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain and fund such Loan to such day or (ii) immediately, if such Lender shall determine that it may not lawfully continue to maintain and fund such Loan to such day.

Section 3.03 Inability to Determine Rates. If on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period for any Eurodollar Loan:

- 36 -

(i) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be presumptively correct absent manifest error) that by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period; or

(ii) Lenders having 50% or more of the aggregate amount of the Loans advise the Administrative Agent that the Eurodollar Rate as determined by the Administrative Agent will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding their Eurodollar Loans for such Interest Period;

the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders, whereupon, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, (i) the obligations of the Lenders to make Eurodollar Loans, or to continue or convert outstanding Loans as or into Eurodollar Loans, shall be suspended and (ii) each outstanding Eurodollar Loan shall be converted into a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto.

Section 3.04 Increased Costs and Reduced Return; Capital Adequacy.

(a) Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law after the Effective Date shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (or its Lending Office) (except any reserve requirement which is reflected in the determination of the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate hereunder);

(ii) subject any Lender (or its Lending Office) to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement or any Eurodollar Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof (except for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes and the imposition of, or any change in the rate of, any Excluded Tax payable by such Lender);

(iii) impose on any Lender (or its Lending Office) or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender (or its Lending Office) of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender, the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) Capital Requirements. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law made after the Effective Date affecting such Lender or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by such Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

- 37 -

(c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender setting forth in reasonable detail with supporting calculations the amount necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to the Borrower shall be presumptively correct absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

(d) Delays in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation, provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than six months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

Section 3.05 Compensation for Losses. Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time to time, the Borrower shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense (except for lost profits) directly and actually incurred by it as a result of:

(i) any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise); or

(ii) any failure by the Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert the Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on the date or in the amount notified by the Borrower.

The Borrower shall also pay any reasonable administrative fees charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing.

Section 3.06 Base Rate Loans Substituted for Affected Eurodollar Loans. If (i) the obligation of any Lender to continue or convert outstanding Loans as or to Eurodollar Loans has been suspended pursuant to Section 3.02 or (ii) any Lender has demanded compensation under Section 3.01 or 3.04 with respect to its Eurodollar Loans, and in any such case the Borrower shall, by at least five Business Days’ prior notice to such Lender through the Administrative Agent, have elected that the provisions of this Section 3.06 shall apply to such Lender, then, unless and until such Lender notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension or demand for compensation no longer exist, all Loans which would otherwise be made by such Lender as (or continued as or converted to) Eurodollar Loans shall instead be Base Rate Loans (on which interest and principal shall be payable contemporaneously with the related Eurodollar Loans of the other Lenders). If such Lender notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension or demand for compensation no longer exist (which it shall do reasonably promptly), the principal amount of each such Base Rate Loan shall be converted into a Eurodollar Loan on the first day of the next succeeding Interest Period applicable to the related Eurodollar Loans of the other Lenders.

If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to Section 3.02, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for

- 38 -

funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.04, as the case may be, in the future, or eliminate the need for the notice pursuant to Section 3.02, as applicable, and (ii) in each case, would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

Section 3.08 Survival. All of the Borrower’s obligations under this Article III shall survive termination of the Commitments and repayment of all other Senior Credit Obligations hereunder.

(b) Enforcement of Rights. Enforce any and all rights and interests created and existing under the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, all rights and remedies existing under the Collateral Documents, all rights and remedies against a Guarantor and all rights of set-off.

Notwithstanding the fact that enforcement powers reside primarily with the Administrative Agent, each Lender has, to the extent permitted by Law, a separate right of payment and shall be considered a separate “creditor” holding a separate “claim” within the meaning of Section 101(5) of the Bankruptcy Code or any other insolvency statute.

In case any one or more of the covenants and/or agreements set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall have been breached by any Loan Party, then the Administrative Agent may proceed to protect and enforce the Lenders’ rights either by suit in equity and/or by action at Law, including an action for damages as a result of any such breach and/or an action for specific performance of any such covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or such other Loan Document.

The Administrative Agent acting pursuant to this paragraph shall be indemnified in accordance with Section 10.04.

Notwithstanding anything in any Loan Document to the contrary, in the event that any Event of Default under Sections 8.01(a) through (e) or (g) through (k) of the Credit Agreement (but not following the occurrence of any other Event of Default) shall have occurred and so long as the Senior Notes are outstanding and are not then due and payable, the Administrative Agent shall not (and the Administrative Agent shall not direct the Collateral Agent to), and each Lender shall not (and each Lender shall not direct the Collateral Agent to) take any action hereunder that would result in the occurrence of an “Event of Default” (as that term is defined in the Senior Secured Note Indenture) pursuant to any of Sections 6.01(e), (f) (as to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries only) or (g) of the Senior Secured Note Indenture, except that in any event the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders may take possession of the Equity Interests of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents.

(c) Control. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby do not and will not constitute, create, or have the effect of constituting or creating, directly or indirectly, actual or practical ownership of any Group Company by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender, or affirmative or negative, direct or indirect control by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender over the management or any other aspect of the operation of the Group Company, which ownership and control remains exclusively and at all times in those Group Company.

Section 8.03 Payments on and Redemptions of Parent Preferred Stock. Following delivery of the Preferred Stock Election Notice to the Borrower, all payments received by the Lenders or by any Agent with respect to, or redemptions of, the Parent Preferred Stock shall be deemed payments of (i) principal on the Loans, to the extent of the Base Liquidation Preference of Parent Preferred Stock redeemed, (ii) interest on the Loans, to the extent of payments of dividends on Parent Preferred Stock (including any portion of Liquidation Preference of Parent Preferred Stock redeemed attributable to the accrual of dividends) paid in cash to the extent that such amount exceeds the amount of interest hereunder attributable to an amount of principal equal to the Base Liquidation Preference of the Parent Preferred Stock to which such dividend payment relates, and (iii) prepayment premium, if any, that would be payable pursuant to Section 2.06(c) with respect to the prepayment of principal on the Loans hereunder in an amount equal to the Base Liquidation Preference, to the extent of the amount of Premium (as defined in the Parent Certificate of Designations) included in the Liquidation Preference of Parent Preferred Stock redeemed or to the extent that the cash redemption price of Parent Preferred Stock redeemed exceeds 100% of the Liquidation Preference thereof (but excluding any such amounts that exceed the prepayment premium that would be so payable hereunder). “Base Liquidation Preference” of any Parent Preferred Stock means the Liquidation Preference of such Parent Preferred Stock without giving effect to (x) the accrual of any dividends on such Parent Preferred Stock, or (y) the provisions of the Parent Certificate of Designation providing for redemption of such Parent Preferred Stock at a cash redemption price in excess of 100% of the Liquidation Preference thereof or the addition of Premium to the Liquidation Preference.

Section 8.04 Allocation of Payments After Event of Default.

(a) Priority of Distributions. The Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of any and all payments in respect of its Finance Obligations and any proceeds of Collateral after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and agrees, and each of the Finance Parties agrees, that, notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 2.09(b), after the exercise of remedies provided for in Section 8.02 (or after the Loan has automatically become immediately due and payable), all

- 72 -

amounts collected or received by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Finance Party on account of any Finance Obligation shall be paid over or delivered in respect of its Finance Obligations as follows:

FIRST, to pay interest on and then principal of any portion of the Loan that the Administrative Agent may have advanced on behalf of any Lender for which the Administrative Agent has not then been reimbursed by such Lender or the Borrower;

SECOND, to the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent in connection with enforcing the rights of the Finance Parties under the Finance Documents, including all expenses of sale or other realization of or in respect of the Collateral, including reasonable compensation to the agents and counsel for the Collateral Agent, and all expenses, liabilities and advances incurred or made by the Collateral Agent in connection therewith, and any other obligations owing to the Collateral Agent under the Loan Documents, including in respect of sums advanced by the Collateral Agent to preserve the Collateral or to preserve its security interest in the Collateral;

THIRD, to the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) of (i) each of the Lenders in connection with enforcing its rights under the Loan Documents or otherwise with respect to the Senior Credit Obligations owing to such Lender and (ii) each Swap Creditor in connection with enforcing any of its rights under the Swap Agreements or otherwise with respect to the Swap Obligations owing to such Swap Creditor;

FOURTH, to the payment of all of the Senior Credit Obligations consisting of accrued fees and interest;

FIFTH, except as set forth in clauses FIRST through FOURTH above, to the payment of the outstanding Senior Credit Obligations and Swap Obligations owing to any Finance Party, Pro-Rata, as set forth below, with (i) an amount equal to the Senior Credit Obligations being paid to the Collateral Agent (in the case of Senior Credit Obligations owing to the Collateral Agent) or to the Administrative Agent (in the case of all other Senior Credit Obligations) for the account of the Lenders or any Agent, with the Collateral Agent, each Lender and the Agents receiving an amount equal to its outstanding Senior Credit Obligations, or, if the proceeds are insufficient to pay in full all Senior Credit Obligations, its Pro-Rata Share of the amount remaining to be distributed, and (ii) an amount equal to the Swap Obligations being paid to the trustee, paying agent or other similar representative (each a “Representative”) for the Swap Creditors, with each Swap Creditor receiving an amount equal to the outstanding Swap Obligations owed to it by the Loan Parties or, if the proceeds are insufficient to pay in full all such Swap Obligations, its Pro-Rata Share of the amount remaining to be distributed;

SIXTH, to the payment of the surplus, if any, to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.

In carrying out the foregoing, (i) amounts received shall be applied in the numerical order provided until exhausted prior to application to the next succeeding category; and (ii) each of the Finance Parties shall receive an amount equal to its Pro-Rata Share of amounts available to be applied pursuant to clauses “THIRD”, “FOURTH” and “FIFTH” above.

(b) Pro-Rata Treatment. For purposes of this Section 8.04, “Pro-Rata Share” means, when calculating a Finance Party’s portion of any distribution or amount, that amount (expressed as a percentage) equal to a fraction the numerator of which is the then unpaid amount of such Finance Party’s

- 73 -

Senior Credit Obligations or Swap Obligations, as the case may be, and the denominator of which is the then outstanding amount of all Senior Credit Obligations or Swap Obligations, as the case may be. When payments to the Finance Parties are based upon their respective Pro-Rata Shares, the amounts received by such Finance Parties hereunder shall be applied (for purposes of making determinations under this Section 8.04 only) (i) first, to their Senior Credit Obligations and (ii) second, to their Swap Obligations. If any payment to any Finance Party of its Pro-Rata Share of any distribution would result in overpayment to such Finance Party, such excess amount shall instead be distributed in respect of the unpaid Senior Credit Obligations or Swap Obligations, as the case may be, of the other Finance Parties, with each Finance Party whose Senior Credit Obligations or Swap Obligations, as the case may be, have not been paid in full to receive an amount equal to such excess amount multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the unpaid Senior Credit Obligations, Swap Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, of such Finance Party and the denominator of which is the unpaid Senior Credit Obligations or Swap Obligations, as the case may be, of all Finance Parties entitled to such distribution.

(c) Reliance by Collateral Agent. For purposes of applying payments received in accordance with this Section 8.04, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely upon (i) the Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement and (ii) the Representative, if any, for the Swap Creditors for a determination (which the Administrative Agent, each Representative for any Swap Creditor and the Finance Parties agree (or shall agree) to provide upon request of the Collateral Agent) of the outstanding Senior Credit Obligations and Swap Obligations owed to the Agents, the Lenders or the Swap Creditors, as the case may be. Unless it has actual knowledge (including by way of written notice from a Swap Creditor or any Representatives thereof) to the contrary, the Collateral Agent, in acting hereunder, shall be entitled to assume that no Swap Agreements are in existence.

In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of the Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirement of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Collateral may at the time be located, the Collateral Agent shall have the power and may execute and deliver all instruments necessary to appoint one or more Persons to act as a co-collateral agent or separate collateral agent or separate collateral agents, of all or any part of the Collateral, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such

- 78 -

capacity and for the benefit of the Secured Parties, such title to the Collateral, or any part hereof, and subject to the other provisions of this Section, such powers, duties, obligations, and rights as the Collateral Agent may consider necessary or desirable. No co-collateral agent or separate collateral agent hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor Collateral Agent under Section 9.6 and no notice to the Secured Parties of the appointment of any co-collateral agent or separate collateral agent shall be required under Section 9.6.

(ii) no collateral agent shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of

any other collateral agent under the Loan Documents; and

(iii) the Collateral Agent may at any time accept the resignation of or remove any separate collateral agent or co-collateral agent.

Every instrument appointing any separate collateral agent or co-collateral agent shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions of this Article IX. Each separate collateral agent and co-collateral agent, upon its acceptance of the obligations conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Collateral Agent or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Agreement, specifically including every provision of this Agreement relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection or rights (including the rights to compensation, reimbursement and indemnification hereunder) to, the Collateral Agent. Every such instrument shall be filed with the Collateral Agent.

(d) Any separate collateral agent or co-collateral agent may at any time constitute the Collateral Agent its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Agreement on its behalf and in its name. If any separate collateral agent or co-collateral agent shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and obligations shall vest in and be exercised by the Collateral Agent, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor collateral agent.

(c) Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that Holdings and the Borrower for any reason fail indefeasibly to pay any amount required under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section to be paid by it or them to each Agent (or any agent, co-agent or sub-agent thereof) or any Related Party of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to each Agent (or any such agent, co-agent or sub-agent) or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against each Agent (or any such agent, co-agent or sub-agent) in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for each Agent (or any such agent, co-agent or sub-agent) in connection with such capacity.

(d) Waiver of Consequential Damages. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, no Loan Party shall assert, and each of them hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, 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 Finance Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, the Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof.

Section 10.05 Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower or any other Loan Party is made to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender exercises its right of set-off, and such payment or the proceeds of such set-off or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (i) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such set-off had not occurred, and (ii) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, upon demand, its applicable share of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect.

Section 10.06 Successors and Assigns.

(a) Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that neither the Borrower nor any other Loan Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder (except pursuant to a transaction permitted hereunder) without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent and each Lender, and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee in accordance with the provisions of subsection (b) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of subsection (d) of this Section, or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of subsection (f) of this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in subsection (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided, however, that:

(i) except in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the Lender’s Loan or Commitments owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to a Lender, the aggregate amount of the Loans of an assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than $1,000,000 and shall be an integral multiple of $500,000 unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower consent (such consent, in any such case, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however, that concurrent assignments to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single Eligible Assignee (or to an Eligible Assignee and members of its Assignee Group) will be treated as a single assignment for purposes of determining whether such minimum amount has been met;

(ii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lenders’ rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loan;

(iii) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (it being understood that such fee may be reduced or eliminated in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion) and the Eligible Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire and appropriate tax forms.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto

- 84 -

but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04, 3.05 and 10.04 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment). Upon request, the Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note or Notes to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (d) of this Section.

(c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and principal amounts of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be presumptively correct, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.

Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in clause (z) of the first proviso to Section 10.01 that affects such Participant. Subject to subsection (e) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.08 as though it were a Lender.

(e) Limitation Upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.01 or 3.04 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.01 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 3.01(e) as though it were a Lender.

(f) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(g) Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or

- 85 -

the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based record keeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable Law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

Section 10.07 Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (i) to its Affiliates and to it and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential); (ii) to the extent requested by a regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it, including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners; (iii) to the extent required by applicable Law or by any subpoena or similar legal process; (iv) to any other party hereto; (v) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (vi) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (A) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (B) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations, (vii) with the consent of the Borrower or (viii) to the extent such Information (A) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (B) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower.

For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries relating to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower or any Subsidiary. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Agent and any Lender may place advertisements in financial and other newspapers and periodicals or on a home page or similar place for dissemination of information on the Internet or worldwide web as it may choose, and circulate similar promotional materials, after the closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in the form of a “tombstone” or otherwise describing the names of the Loan Parties, or any of them, and the amount, type and closing date of such transactions, all at their sole expense.

Section 10.08 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, each Lender and each of their respective Affiliates is 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, but excluding trust, payroll and fiduciary accounts) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or such Lender or any such Affiliate of any of them to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or any other Loan Party against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower or such Loan Party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or such Lender, irrespective of whether or not the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of the Borrower or such Loan Party may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or such Lender different from the branch or office holding such

- 86 -

deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each Lender and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or such Lender or their respective Affiliates may have. The Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each Lender agrees to notify the Borrower (and in the case of the Collateral Agent or a Lender, the Administrative Agent) 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 10.09 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans then to premium or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal or premium, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (i) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (ii) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof and (iii) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Senior Credit Obligations hereunder.

Section 10.10 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 contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Borrower and when the Administrative Agent 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 10.11 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 the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by any Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or Event of Default, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Senior Credit Obligation shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied.

Section 10.12 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (i) 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 (ii) 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 10.13 Governing Law; Jurisdiction Etc.

(a) Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (OTHER THAN AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN SUCH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS) AND THE

- 87 -

RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER AND THEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, SECTION 5-1401 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK).

(c) Waiver of Venue. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT IN ANY COURT REFERRED TO IN PARAGRAPH (b) OF THIS SECTION. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT.

(d) Service of Process. EACH PARTY HERETO (OTHER THAN THE COLLATERAL AGENT) IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES IN SECTION 10.02.

GUARANTY

I. RECITALS

Reference is made to that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (as it may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), by and among ORBIMAGE SI Holdco Inc., a Delaware corporation, ORBIMAGE SI Opco Inc., a Delaware corporation, each guarantor from time to time party thereto, each lender from time to time party thereto (collectively, the “Lenders” and individually, a “Lender”), Credit Suisse, Cayman Islands Branch, as Administrative Agent (the “Administrative Agent”) and The Bank of New York, as the Collateral Agent (the “Collateral Agent”). As one of the conditions to making Loans to Borrower under the Credit Agreement, the Lenders have required that the undersigned (“Guarantor”), guaranty the obligations of Borrower to Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings provided for in the Credit Agreement.

II. GUARANTY

Therefore, for value received, and in consideration of any loan, advance or financial accommodation of any kind whatsoever heretofore, now or hereafter made, given or granted to Borrower by Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender, Guarantor hereby unconditionally guaranties the full and prompt payment when due, whether at maturity or earlier, by reason of acceleration or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, of all of the Secured Credit Obligations. Without limiting the foregoing, the Secured Credit Obligations guaranteed hereby include all fees, costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender in attempting to collect any amount due under this Guaranty or in prosecuting any action against Borrower, Guarantor or any other guarantor of all or part of the Secured Credit Obligations and all interest, fees, reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses owing to Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender after the commencement of bankruptcy proceedings with respect to Borrower, Guarantor or any other guarantor of all or part of the Secured Credit Obligations (whether or not the same may be collected while such proceedings are pending).

Guarantor hereby agrees that this Guaranty is a present and continuing guaranty of payment and not of collection and that its obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of (i) the validity or enforceability of the Secured Credit Obligations or any part thereof, or of any of the Financing Documents, (ii) the waiver or consent by Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender with respect to any provision of any Financing Document, or any amendment, modification or other change with respect to any Financing Document, (iii) any merger or consolidation of Borrower, Guarantor or any other guarantor of all or part of the Secured Credit Obligations into or with any Person or any change in the ownership of the equity of Borrower, Guarantor or any other guarantor of all or part of the Secured Credit Obligations, (iv) any dissolution of Guarantor or any insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation, reorganization or similar proceedings with respect to Borrower, Guarantor or any other guarantor of all or part of the Secured Credit Obligations, (v) any action or inaction on the part of Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender, including without limitation the absence of any attempt to collect the Secured Credit Obligations from Borrower, Guarantor or any other guarantor of all or part of the Secured Credit Obligations or other action to enforce the same or the failure by Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent to take any steps to perfect and maintain its Lien on, or to preserve its rights to, any security or collateral for the Secured Credit Obligations, (vi) Administrative Agent’s election, in any proceeding instituted under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code (11 U.S.C. Section 101 et seq.), as amended (the “Bankruptcy Code”) of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, (vii) any borrowing or grant of a Lien by Borrower, Guarantor or any other guarantor of all or part of the Secured Credit Obligations, as debtor-in-possession, under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code, (viii) the disallowance, under Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code, of all or any portion of Administrative Agent’s, the Collateral Agent’s or any Lender’s claims for repayment of the Secured Credit Obligations, (ix) Administrative Agent’s, Collateral Agent’s or any Lender’s inability to enforce the Secured Credit Obligations of Borrower as a result of the automatic stay provisions under Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code, (x) the discharge or release by Administrative Agent,

Collateral Agent and/or Lenders of Guarantor’s obligations and liabilities under this Guaranty or (xi) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of Borrower, Guarantor or any other guarantor of all or part of the Secured Credit Obligations.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Guaranty to the contrary, it is intended that this Guaranty, and any Liens granted by Guarantor to secure the obligations and liabilities arising pursuant to this Guaranty, not constitute a “Fraudulent Conveyance” (as defined below). Consequently, Guarantor agrees that if this Guaranty, or any Liens securing the obligations and liabilities arising pursuant to this Guaranty, would, but for the application of this sentence, constitute a Fraudulent Conveyance, this Guaranty and each such Lien shall be valid and enforceable only to the maximum extent that would not cause this Guaranty or such Lien to constitute a Fraudulent Conveyance, and this Guaranty shall automatically be deemed to have been amended accordingly at all relevant times. For purposes hereof, “Fraudulent Conveyance” means a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under the provisions of any applicable fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer law or similar law of any state, nation or other governmental unit, as in effect from time to time.

No payment made by or for the account or benefit of Guarantor (including, without limitation, (i) a payment made by Borrower in respect of the Secured Credit Obligations, (ii) a payment made by any Person under any other guaranty of the Secured Credit Obligations or (iii) a payment made by means of set-off or other application of funds by Administrative Agent or any Lender) pursuant to this Guaranty shall entitle Guarantor, by subrogation or otherwise, to any payment by Borrower or from or out of any property of Borrower, and Guarantor shall not exercise any right or remedy against Borrower or any property of Borrower including, without limitation, any right of contribution or reimbursement by reason of any performance by any Person under this Guaranty, until the Secured Credit Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full and the Credit Agreement has been terminated.

Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of any bankruptcy proceeding (or other insolvency proceeding) of Borrower, protest or notice with respect to the Secured Credit Obligations and all demands whatsoever, and covenants that this Guaranty will not be discharged, except by complete and irrevocable payment and performance of the obligations and liabilities (other than contingent liabilities) contained herein. No notice to Guarantor or any other party shall be required for Administrative Agent, on behalf of Administrative Agent or any Lender, to make demand hereunder. Such demand shall constitute a mature and liquidated claim against Guarantor. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent may, at its sole election, proceed directly and at once, without notice, against Guarantor to collect and recover the full amount or any portion of the Secured Credit Obligations, without first proceeding against Borrower, any other Person or any security or collateral for the Secured Credit Obligations. Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent shall have the exclusive right to determine the application of payments and credits, if any, from Guarantor, Borrower, any other Person, or any security or collateral for the Secured Credit Obligations, on account of the Secured Credit Obligations or of any other liability of Guarantor to Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and Lenders arising hereunder.

Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and Lenders are hereby authorized, without notice or demand to Guarantor and without affecting or impairing the liability of Guarantor hereunder, to, from time to time, (i) renew, extend, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment of, or other terms relating to, the Secured Credit Obligations or otherwise modify, amend or change the terms of any Financing Document, (ii) accept partial payments on the Secured Credit Obligations, (iii) take and hold collateral for the payment of the Secured Credit Obligations, or for the payment of this Guaranty, or for the payment of any other guaranties of the Secured Credit Obligations or other liabilities of Borrower, and exchange, enforce, waive and release any such collateral, (iv) apply such collateral and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as in their sole discretion they may determine and (v) settle, release, compromise, collect or otherwise liquidate the Secured Credit Obligations and any collateral therefor in any manner.

-2-

At any time after maturity of the Secured Credit Obligations, Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and Lenders may, in their sole discretion, with reasonable prompt subsequent notice to Guarantor and regardless of the acceptance of any collateral for the payment hereof, appropriate and apply toward payment of the Secured Credit Obligations (i) any indebtedness due or to become due from Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or any Lender to Guarantor and (ii) any moneys, credits or other property belonging to Guarantor at any time held by or coming into the possession of Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or any Lender or any Affiliates thereof, whether for deposit or otherwise; except that no Lender shall exercise any such right without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent.

Guarantor hereby assumes responsibility for keeping itself informed of the financial condition of Borrower, and any and all endorsers and other guarantors of all or any part of the Secured Credit Obligations and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Secured Credit Obligations or any part thereof that diligent inquiry would reveal, and Guarantor hereby agrees that neither Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent nor any Lender shall have any duty to advise Guarantor of information known to such Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or Lender regarding such condition or any such circumstances. Guarantor hereby acknowledges familiarity with Borrower’s financial condition and that it has not relied on any statements by Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or any Lender in obtaining such information.

Guarantor further agrees that, to the extent that Borrower makes a payment or payments to Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or any Lender, or Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or any Lender receives any proceeds of Collateral, which payment or payments or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to Borrower, its estate, trustee, receiver or any other party, including without limitation Guarantor, under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then to the extent of such payment or repayment, the Secured Credit Obligations or the part thereof which has been paid, reduced or satisfied by such amount shall be reinstated and continued in full force and effect as of the date such initial payment, reduction or satisfaction occurred, and this Guaranty shall continue to be in existence and in full force and effect, irrespective of whether any evidence of indebtedness has been surrendered or cancelled.

Guarantor also waives all set-offs and counterclaims and all presentments, demands for performance, notices of nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor, and notices of acceptance of this Guaranty. Guarantor further waives all notices of the existence, creation or incurring of new or additional indebtedness, arising either from additional loans extended to Borrower or otherwise, and also waives all notices that the principal amount, or any portion thereof, or any interest under or on any Financing Document is due, notices of any and all proceedings to collect from the maker, any endorser or any other guarantor of all or any part of the Secured Credit Obligations, or from anyone else, and, to the extent permitted by law, notices of exchange, sale, surrender or other handling of any security or collateral given to Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent to secure payment of the Secured Credit Obligations.

Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (as hereinafter defined), Beneficiary is hereby authorized to make or advance, in the place and stead of Trustor, any payment relating to Impositions. Beneficiary may do so according to any bill, statement, or estimate procured from the appropriate public office without inquiry into the accuracy or the validity of any Impositions, lien, sale, forfeiture, or related title or claim.

3.8 Assignment of Leases and Rents.

(a) All right, title, and interest of Trustor in and to all Leases and Rents are hereby transferred and assigned simultaneously herewith to Beneficiary. Although it is the intention of the parties that the assignment contained in this paragraph shall be a present assignment, it is expressly understood and agreed, anything to the contrary notwithstanding, that Beneficiary shall not exercise any of the rights or powers conferred upon it by this paragraph until an Event of Default shall exist and be continuing under this Deed of Trust.

(b) Following the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuance thereof, (a) Beneficiary shall have the rights and powers as are provided herein, (b) this Deed of Trust shall constitute a direction to each lessee under the Leases and each guarantor thereof to pay all Rents directly to Beneficiary without proof of the Event of Default, and (c) Beneficiary shall have the authority, as Trustor’s attorney-in-fact (such authority being coupled with an interest and irrevocable), to sign the name of Trustor and to bind Trustor on all papers and documents relating to the operation, leasing and maintenance of the Property.

All of Trustor’s right, title and interest in the Personal Property Collateral is hereby assigned to Beneficiary to secure the payment of the Secured Indebtedness.

(b) At any time after an Event of Default has occurred and shall be continuing, Beneficiary shall have the remedies of a secured party under the Code, including without limitation, the right to take immediate and exclusive possession of the Personal Property Collateral or any part thereof. The remedies of Beneficiary hereunder are cumulative and the exercise of any one or more of the remedies provided for herein or under the Code shall not be construed as a waiver of any of the other remedies of the Beneficiary, including having the Personal Property Collateral deemed part of the realty upon any foreclosure so long as any part of the Secured Indebtedness remains unsatisfied.

(c) This Deed of Trust is intended to be a “fixture filing” for purposes of the Code with respect to the items of Property which are or may become fixtures relating to the Premises upon recording of this Deed of Trust in the real estate records of the proper office. The addresses of Trustor (Debtor) and Beneficiary (Secured Party) are set forth in Section 6.2 hereof.

(d) Trustor shall record or cause to be recorded in the County in which the Premises are located, as well as with the applicable offices of the State, such financing statements and fixture filings and any and all continuation statements or other documents or instruments as shall be necessary in order to perfect and preserve the priority of Beneficiary’s lien upon the Personal Property Collateral.

3.10 Releases. Without notice and without regard to the consideration therefor, and to the existence at that time of any inferior liens, Beneficiary may release from the lien created hereby all or any part of the Property, or release from liability any person obligated to repay any of the Obligations, without affecting the liability of any party to any of the Notes, this Deed of Trust, or any of the other Loan Documents (including without limitation any guaranty given as additional security) and without in any way affecting the priority of the lien created hereby. Beneficiary may agree with any liable party to extend the time for payment of any part or all of the Obligations. Such agreement shall not in any way release or impair the lien created by this Deed of Trust or reduce or modify the liability of any person or entity obligated personally to repay the Obligations, but shall extend the lien created by this Deed of Trust as against the title of all parties having any interest in the Property.

3.11 Further Assurances. Trustor agrees that, upon the request of Beneficiary from time to time, it will, at Trustor’s sole cost and expense, execute, acknowledge and deliver all such additional instruments and further assurances of title and will do or cause to be done all such further acts and things as may reasonably be necessary to fully effectuate the intent of this Deed of Trust. In the event that Trustor shall fail to do any of the foregoing, Beneficiary may, in its sole discretion, do so in the name of Trustor, and Trustor hereby appoints Beneficiary as its attorney-in-fact to do any of the foregoing.

IV.

EVENT OF DEFAULT AND REMEDIES

4.1 Event of Default. The occurrence of an “Event of Default,” as such term is defined in the Credit Agreement, shall constitute an “Event of Default” under this Deed of Trust.

4.2 Foreclosure and Sale. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default, Beneficiary may foreclose this Deed of Trust, either by judicial action or through Trustee. If this Deed of Trust encumbers more than one parcel of real estate, foreclosure may be by separate parcel or en masse, as Beneficiary may elect in its sole discretion. Foreclosure through Trustee will be initiated by Beneficiary’s filing of its notice of election and demand for sale with Trustee. Upon the filing of such notice of election and demand for sale, Trustee shall promptly comply with all notice and other requirements of the laws of Colorado then in force with respect to such sales, and shall give four weeks’ public notice of the time and place of such sale by advertisement weekly in some newspaper of general circulation then published in the County or City and County in which the Property is located. Any sale conducted by Trustee pursuant to this Section shall be held at the front door of the county courthouse for such County or City and County, or on the Property, or at such other place as similar sales are then customarily held in such County or City and County, provided that the actual place of sale shall be specified in the notice of sale. All fees, costs and expenses of any kind incurred by Beneficiary in connection with foreclosure of this Deed of Trust, including, without limitation, the costs of any appraisals of the Property obtained by Beneficiary, all costs of any receivership for the Property advanced by Beneficiary, all costs of any environmental audits or tests incurred by Beneficiary and all attorneys’ and consultants’ fees incurred by Beneficiary, shall constitute a part of the Secured Indebtedness and may be included as part of the amount owing from Trustor to Beneficiary at any foreclosure sale. The proceeds of any sale under this Section shall be applied first to the fees and expenses of the Trustee or other officer conducting the sale (all of which shall be part of the obligations secured by this Deed of Trust), and then to the reduction or discharge of the Secured Indebtedness in accordance with the Credit Agreement; any surplus remaining shall be paid over to Trustor or to such other person or persons as may be lawfully entitled to such surplus. Beneficiary may bid at any such foreclosure sale, and in connection therewith Beneficiary may credit bid all or any portion of the Secured Indebtedness (including, without limitation, the Trustee’s fees and expenses, Beneficiary’s attorneys’ and appraisal fees, and all other expenses incurred by Beneficiary in undertaking the foreclosure). At the conclusion of any foreclosure sale, the officer conducting the sale shall execute and deliver to the purchaser at the sale a certificate of purchase which shall describe the Property sold to such purchaser and shall state that upon the expiration of the applicable periods for redemption, the holder of such certificate will be entitled to a deed to the Property described in the certificate. After the expiration of all applicable periods of redemption, unless the Property sold has been redeemed by Trustor, the officer who conducted such sale shall, upon request, execute and deliver an appropriate deed to the holder of the certificate of purchase or the last certificate of redemption, as the case may be, and such deed shall operate to divest Trustor and all persons claiming under Trustor of all right, title, and interest, whether legal or equitable, in the Property described in the deed. Nothing in this Section or elsewhere in this Deed of Trust dealing with foreclosure procedures or specifying particular actions to be taken by Beneficiary or by Trustee or any similar officer shall be deemed to contradict or add to the

requirements and procedures now or hereafter specified by Colorado law, and any such inconsistency shall be resolved in favor of Colorado law applicable at the time of foreclosure.

4.3 Remedies Cumulative and Non-Waiver. No remedy or right of Beneficiary hereunder or under the Credit Agreement, or any of the Loan Documents or otherwise, or available under applicable law, shall be exclusive of any other right or remedy. Each such remedy or right shall be in addition to every other remedy or right now or hereafter existing under any such document or under applicable law. No delay in the exercise of, or omission to exercise, any remedy or right accruing on the occurrence of any Event of Default shall impair any such remedy or right or be construed to be a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein, nor shall it affect any subsequent Event of Default of the same or a different nature, nor shall it extend or affect any grace period. Every remedy or right may be exercised concurrently or independently, when and as often as may be deemed expedient by the Beneficiary. All obligations of the Trustor, and all rights, powers and remedies of the Beneficiary shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of, those provided by law or in the Credit Agreement or contained in any of the Loan Documents or any other written agreement or instrument relating to any of the Secured Indebtedness or any security therefor.

4.4 Beneficiary’s Performance of Trustor’s Obligations. Following the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuance thereof, Beneficiary, either before or after acceleration of the Secured Indebtedness or the foreclosure of the lien hereof and during the period of redemption, if any, may, but shall not be required to (a) make any payment or perform any act herein, in the Notes or any other Loan Document which is required of Trustor (whether or not Trustor is personally liable therefor) in any form and manner deemed expedient to Beneficiary; (b) make full or partial payments of principal or interest on any permitted prior mortgage or encumbrance and purchase, discharge, compromise or settle any tax lien or other prior lien on title or claim thereof, or redeem from any tax sale or forfeiture affecting the Premises, or contest any Impositions; and (c) complete construction, furnishing and equipping of the Improvements upon the Premises and rent, operate and manage the Premises and such Improvements and pay operating costs and expenses, including management fees, of every kind and nature in connection therewith, so that the Premises and Improvements shall be operational and usable for their intended purposes. All monies paid for any of the purposes herein authorized, and all expenses paid or incurred in connection therewith, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, shall constitute Secured Indebtedness, and shall become due and payable upon demand and with interest thereon at the Default Rate. Beneficiary, in making any payment hereby authorized: (x) for the payment of Impositions, may do so according to any bill or statement, without inquiry into the validity of any tax, assessment, sale, forfeiture, tax lien or title or claim thereof; (y) for the purchase, discharge, compromise or settlement of any other prior lien, may do so without inquiry as to the validity or amount of any claim or lien which may be asserted; or (z) for the completion of construction, furnishing or equipping of the Improvements or the Premises or the rental, operation or management of the Premises or the payment of operating cost and expenses thereof, may do so in such amounts and to such persons as Beneficiary may deem appropriate and may enter into such contracts therefor as Beneficiary may deem appropriate or may perform the same itself.

4.5 Right of Possession. Following the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuance thereof, Trustor shall, immediately upon Beneficiary’s demand, surrender to Beneficiary, and Beneficiary shall be entitled to take actual possession of the Property or any part thereof, personally or by its agent or attorneys. Beneficiary may enter upon and take and maintain possession or may apply to the court in which a foreclosure is pending to be placed in possession of all or any part of the Property, together with all documents, books, records, papers, and accounts of Trustor or the then owner of the Property relating thereto. Beneficiary may exclude Trustor, such owner, and any agents and servants from the Property. As attorney-in-fact or agent of Trustor or such owner, or in its own name Beneficiary may hold, operate, manage, and control all or any part of the Property, either personally or by its agents. Beneficiary shall have

full power to use such measures, legal or equitable, as it may deem proper or necessary to enforce the payment or security of the rents, issues, deposits, profits, and avails of the Property, including actions for recovery of rent, actions in forcible detainer, and actions in distress for rent, all without notice to Trustor.

4.6 Application of Income Received by Beneficiary. Beneficiary, in the exercise of the rights and powers hereinabove conferred upon it, shall have full power to use and apply the avails, rents, issues and profits of the Property to the payment of or on account of the following, in such order as Beneficiary may determine: (i) to the payment of the operating expenses of the Property including cost of management thereof, established claims for damages, if any, and premiums on insurance hereinabove authorized; (ii) to the payment of taxes and special assessments now due or which may hereafter become due on the Premises; (iii) to all other items which may under the terms hereof constitute Secured Indebtedness additional to that evidenced by the Notes, with interest thereon as provided herein or in the other Loan Documents; and (iv) to all principal and interest remaining unpaid on the Notes.

4.7 Intentionally Omitted.

4.8 Foreclosure by Power of Sale. If Beneficiary elects to foreclose by exercise of the power of sale contained herein, Beneficiary shall notify Trustee and shall, if required, deposit with Trustee the Notes, the original or a certified copy of this Deed of Trust, and such other documents, receipts and evidences of expenditures made and secured hereby as Trustee may require.

(a) Upon receipt of such notice from Beneficiary, Trustee shall cause to be recorded and delivered to Trustor such notice as may then be required by law and by this Deed of Trust. Trustee shall, without demand on Trustor, after lapse of such time as may then be required by law and after recordation of such notice of default and after notice of sale has been given as required by law, sell the Property at the time and place of sale fixed by it in said notice of sale, either as a whole or in separate lots or parcels or items as Trustee shall deem expedient, and in such order as it may determine, at public auction to the highest bidder for cash in lawful money of the United States payable at the time of sale. Trustee shall deliver to the purchaser or purchasers at such sale its good and sufficient deed or deeds conveying the property so sold, but without any covenant or warranty, express or implied. The recitals in such deed of any matters or facts shall be conclusive proof of the truthfulness thereof. Any person, including, without limitation, Trustor, Trustee, Beneficiary or the Lenders, may purchase at such sale, and Trustor hereby covenants to warrant and defend the title of such purchaser or purchasers.

(b) Trustee may postpone the sale of all or any portion of the Property by public announcement at the time and place of the scheduled sale, and from time to time thereafter may postpone such sale by public announcement at the time fixed by the preceding postponement or subsequent notice of sale, and without further notice may make such sale at the time fixed by the last postponement, or may, in its discretion, give a new notice of sale.

(c) Trustor hereby expressly waives any right which it may have to direct the order in which any of the Property shall be sold in the event of any sale or sales pursuant to this Deed of Trust.

4.9 Rescission of Notice of Default. Beneficiary (on behalf of the Lenders) may from time to time rescind any notice of default or notice of sale before any Trustee’s sale as provided above, by executing and delivering to Trustee a written notice of such rescission, which such notice, when recorded, shall also

constitute a cancellation of any prior declaration of default and demand for sale. The exercise by Beneficiary of such right of rescission shall not constitute a waiver of any breach or default then existing or subsequently occurring, or impair the right of Beneficiary to execute and deliver to Trustee, as above provided, other declarations or notices of default to satisfy the obligations of this Deed of Trust or the obligations secured hereby, nor otherwise affect any provision, covenant or condition of any Loan Document or any of the rights, obligations or remedies of Trustee, Beneficiary or the Lenders hereunder or thereunder.

4.10 Application of Proceeds of Foreclosure Sale. The proceeds of any foreclosure sale of the Property shall be distributed and applied in the following order of priority: first, to all costs and expenses incident to the foreclosure proceedings, including all such items as are mentioned in Section 4.4 hereof; second, to all other items which may under the terms hereof constitute Secured Indebtedness in accordance with the Credit Agreement.

4.11 Insurance Upon Foreclosure. In case of an insured loss after foreclosure proceedings have been instituted, the proceeds of any insurance policy or policies, if not applied in repairing, restoring, replacing or rebuilding any portion of the Property, shall be used to pay the amount due in accordance with any decree of foreclosure that may be entered in any such proceedings, and the balance, if any, shall be paid as the court may direct. In case of the foreclosure of this Deed of Trust, the court in its judgment may provide that the judgment creditor may cause a new or additional loss clause to be attached to each of said policies making the loss thereunder payable to said judgment creditor; and any such foreclosure judgment may further provide, unless the right of redemption has been waived, that in case of redemption under said judgment, then, and in every such case, the redemptory may cause the preceding loss clause attached to each insurance policy to be canceled and a new loss clause to be attached thereto, making the loss thereunder payable to such redemptory.

4.12 Waiver of Statutory Rights. Trustor shall not apply for or avail itself of any appraisement, valuation, redemption, stay, extension, or exemption laws, or any so-called “moratorium laws,” now existing or hereafter enacted, in order to prevent or hinder the enforcement or foreclosure of this Deed of Trust, and Trustor hereby waives the benefit of such laws. Trustor, for itself and all who may claim through or under it, waives any and all rights to have the Property and estates comprising the Property marshaled upon any foreclosure of the lien of this Deed of Trust, and agrees that any court having jurisdiction to foreclose such lien may order the Property sold in its entirety. Trustor further waives any and all rights of redemption from foreclosure and from sale under any order or decree of foreclosure of the lien created by this Deed of Trust, for itself and on behalf of: (i) any trust estate of which the Premises are a part; (ii) all beneficially interested persons; (iii) each and every person acquiring any interest in the Property or title to the Premises subsequent to the date of this Deed of Trust; and (iv) all other persons to the extent permitted by the provisions of laws of the State in which the Premises are located.

4.13 Effect of Judgment. The obtaining of any judgment by Beneficiary and any levy of any execution under any judgment upon the Property shall not affect in any manner or to any extent the Lien of this Deed of Trust upon the Property or any part thereof, or any Liens, powers, rights and remedies of Beneficiary hereunder, but such Liens, powers, rights and remedies shall continue unimpaired as before until the judgment or levy is satisfied.

4.14 Request for Notice. Trustor hereby requests a copy of any notice of default and requests that any notice of sale hereunder be mailed to Trustor at the address referenced in Section 6.2 hereof. Otherwise, neither Trustee nor Beneficiary is under any obligation to notify any person or entity of any action

or proceeding of any kind in which Trustor, Beneficiary and/or Trustee shall be a party, unless brought by Trustee, or of any pending sale under any other deed of trust.

5.4 Covenants Run with Land. All of the covenants of this Deed of Trust shall run with the land constituting the Premises.

5.5 GOVERNING LAW.

5.6 Severability. If any provision of this Deed of Trust, or any paragraph, sentence, clause, phrase, or word, or their application, in any circumstance, is held invalid, the validity of the remainder of this Deed of Trust shall be construed as if such invalid part were never included.

5.7 Non-Waiver. Unless expressly provided in this Deed of Trust to the contrary, no consent or waiver, express or implied, by any party, to or of any breach or default by any other party shall be deemed a consent to or waiver of the performance by such defaulting party of any other obligations or the performance by any other party of the same, or of any other, obligations.

5.8 Headings. The headings of sections and paragraphs in this Deed of Trust are for convenience or reference only and shall not be construed in any way to limit or define the content, scope, or intent of the provisions.

5.9 Grammar. As used in this Deed of Trust, the singular shall include the plural, and masculine, feminine, and neuter pronouns shall be fully interchangeable, where the context so requires.

5.10 Deed in Trust. If title to the Property or any part thereof is now or hereafter becomes vested in a trustee, any prohibition or restriction against the creation of any lien on the Property shall be construed as a similar prohibition or restriction against the creation of any lien on or security interest in the beneficial interest of such trust.

5.11 Successors and Assigns. This Deed of Trust shall be binding upon Trustor, its successors, assigns, legal representatives, and all other persons or entities claiming under or through Trustor. The word “Beneficiary,” when used herein, shall include each of: (i) the Agent in its capacity as collateral agent for the Lenders; and (ii) the Lenders, together with each of their successors, assigns and legal representatives.

5.12 Counterparts. This Deed of Trust may be executed in any number of separate counterparts, each of which shall collectively and separately constitute one Deed of Trust.

5.13 Mortgagee in Possession. Nothing contained in this Deed of Trust shall be construed as constituting Beneficiary a mortgagee in possession in the absence of the actual taking of possession of the Property.

5.14 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS DEED OF TRUST OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

5.15 No Strict Construction. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Deed of Trust. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Deed of Trust shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of this Deed of Trust.

5.16 Reconveyance. If and when Trustor has paid all of the Secured Indebtedness and has strictly performed and observed all of the agreements, terms, conditions, provisions and warranties contained herein and in the Credit Agreement and in all of the Loan Documents and there exist no commitments of the Lenders under the Loan Documents which could give rise to Secured Indebtedness, Beneficiary, upon the written request of Trustor, will deliver to Trustee a written request for reconveyance, and will surrender to Trustee for cancellation this Deed of Trust; however, Beneficiary will have no obligation to deliver the written request until Beneficiary and the Lenders have been paid by Trustor, in immediately available funds, all escrow, closing, and recording costs, the costs of preparing and issuing the reconveyance, and any trustee’s or reconveyance fees. Upon Trustee’s receipt of the written request by Beneficiary and any other required documents, Trustee will reconvey, without warranty, the Property or that portion then held. To the extent permitted by law, the reconveyance may describe the grantee as the person or persons legally entitled and the

recitals of any matters or facts in any reconveyance will be conclusive proof of the truthfulness of them. Neither Beneficiary nor Trustee will have any duty to determine the rights of persons claiming to be rightful grantees of any reconveyance. When the Property has been fully reconveyed, the last reconveyance will operate as a reassignment of all future Rents of the Property to the person legally entitled.

5.17 Compliance with Applicable Law. Anything elsewhere herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding,

(a) In the event that any provision in this Deed of Trust shall be inconsistent with any provision of Colorado law regarding foreclosure (the “Colorado Foreclosure Law”), the provisions of the Colorado Foreclosure Law shall take precedence over the provisions of this Deed of Trust, but shall not invalidate or render unenforceable any other provision of this Deed of Trust that can be construed in a manner consistent with Colorado Foreclosure Law; and

(b) If any provision of this Deed of Trust shall grant to Beneficiary (including Beneficiary acting as a mortgagee-in-possession) or a receiver appointed pursuant to the provisions of this Deed of Trust, any rights or remedies prior to, upon or following the occurrence of an Event of Default which are more limited than the rights that would otherwise be vested in Beneficiary or such receiver under the Colorado Foreclosure Law in the absence of said provision, Beneficiary and such receiver shall be vested with the rights granted under the Colorado Foreclosure Law to the full extent permitted by law.

5.18 Secured Indebtedness to Include Judgments; Other Collateral. The term “Secured Indebtedness” as defined in this Deed of Trust shall include, without limitation, any judgment(s) or final decree(s) rendered to collect any money obligations of Trustor to Beneficiary and/or the Lenders and/or to enforce the performance or collection of all rights, remedies, obligations, covenants, agreements, conditions, indemnities, representations, warranties, and other liabilities of the Trustor under this Deed of Trust or any or all of the other Loan Documents. The obtaining of any judgment by Beneficiary and/or the Lenders (other than a judgment foreclosing this Deed of Trust) and any levy of any execution under any such judgment upon the Property shall not affect in any manner or to any extent the lien of this Deed of Trust upon the Property or any part thereof, or any liens, powers, rights and remedies of Beneficiary and/or the Lenders hereunder, but such liens, powers, rights and remedies shall continue unimpaired as before until the judgment or levy is satisfied. Furthermore, Trustor acknowledges and agrees that the Secured Indebtedness is secured by the Property and various other collateral at the time of execution of this Deed of Trust. Trustor specifically acknowledges and agrees that the Property, in and of itself, if foreclosed or realized upon would not be sufficient to satisfy the outstanding amount of the Secured Indebtedness. Accordingly, Trustor acknowledges that it is in Trustor’s contemplation that the other collateral pledged to secure the Secured Indebtedness may be pursued by Beneficiary in separate proceedings in the various states and counties where such collateral may be located and additionally that Trustor will remain liable for any deficiency judgments in addition to any amounts Beneficiary and/or the Lenders may realize on sales of other property or any other collateral given as security for the Secured Indebtedness. Specifically, and without limitation of the foregoing, it is agreed that it is the intent of the parties hereto that in the event of a foreclosure of this Deed of Trust, that the Secured Indebtedness shall not be deemed merged into any judgment of foreclosure, but shall rather remain outstanding to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

5.19 Survival. Even though the lien of this Deed of Trust shall be released from the Property subject to Article I, any of the terms and provisions of this Deed of Trust that are intended to survive shall nevertheless survive the release or satisfaction of this Deed of Trust whether voluntarily granted by

Beneficiary or the Lenders, as a result of a judgment upon judicial foreclosure of this Deed of Trust or in the event a deed in lieu of foreclosure is granted by Trustor to Beneficiary and/or the Lenders.

5.20 Agent. The Agent shall have all of the rights, privileges and immunities granted to the Agent under the Credit Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents (as defined in the Credit Agreement) to which it is a party, all of which are incorporated herein mutatis mutandis.
