ARTICLE II

ADVANCES

The Lender may in its discretion make advances (each, an “Advance”) to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount outstanding at any time not to exceed the Maximum Credit Amount.

(a)Each Advance shall be made, in the Lender’s discretion, on notice given by the Borrower to the Lender not later than 11:00 a.m. ET three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed Advance Date, specifying the date and amount thereof (each, a “Borrowing Request”). The Lender may on the proposed Advance Date, in its discretion, make such Advance available to the Borrower in same-day funds.  The Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow Advances provided that the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Advances does not exceed the Maximum Credit Amount at any time.

(b)If requested by the Lender with respect to any Borrowing Request, the Borrower shall include with such Borrowing Request an estimate of its working capital requirements for the three month period immediately following such Borrowing Request and a proposed use of proceeds for the requested Advance.

The Borrower shall repay the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Advances, together with all other Obligations, on the Maturity Date.  The Borrower may prepay any Advances in whole or in part at any time without premium or penalty, subject to three (3) Business Days’ advance notice to the Lender.

(a)Interest shall accrue on the outstanding principal amount of the Advances at a rate equal to 3.5% per annum.  Interest accruing during each calendar quarter shall be paid by the Borrower in arrears on the tenth (10th) day of the month immediately following the end of such calendar quarter.  If any amount of principal is not paid when due (whether by demand, at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), that amount of principal shall bear interest from the date on which such amount is due until such amount is paid in full, payable on demand, at a rate equal to 8.5% per annum.

(b)In no event whatsoever shall interest and other charges charged hereunder exceed the highest rate permissible under Applicable Law.  In the event interest and other charges as computed hereunder would otherwise exceed the highest rate permitted under Applicable Law, such excess amount shall be first applied to any unpaid principal balance owed by the Borrower, and if the then remaining excess amount is greater than the previously unpaid principal balance, the Lender shall promptly refund such excess amount to the Borrower and the provisions hereof shall be deemed amended to provide for such permissible rate.

5

(a)The Borrower shall make each payment of principal, interest and other amounts payable hereunder not later than 1:00 p.m. ET on the due date therefor in Dollars in immediately available funds.

(b)Interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and for the actual number of days elapsed. Each computation of interest by the Lender made in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error.

(c)Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest.

The Borrower may terminate this Agreement upon thirty (30) days’ notice to the Lender and repayment in full of the Obligations.  The Lender may terminate this Agreement upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default.  Termination of this Agreement shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to pay in full the Obligations, all of which shall survive termination of this Agreement.

(a)Any and all payments made by the Borrower hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding income and franchise taxes imposed on the Lender (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”).  If the Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.7), the Lender 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 pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation or other authority in accordance with Applicable Law.

(b)The Borrower will indemnify the Lender for the full amount of Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.7) paid by the Lender and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally asserted.  This indemnification shall be made within 15 days after demand therefor by the Lender, which demand shall be accompanied by a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the circumstances concerning the imposition of, and the calculations used to determine, such Taxes. The amounts set forth in such certificate shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

The Obligations owing to the Lender hereunder shall be evidenced by notations made by the Lender in its financial accounting records and such records shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the Obligations; provided that the failure of the Lender to make such notations or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Obligation in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(b)The Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Lender, its Affiliates, and its and their respective directors, officers and employees (each, an “Indemnified Person”) against all claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, fees and disbursements of counsel) which may be incurred by or asserted against any Indemnified Person in connection with or arising out of any investigation, litigation or proceeding (i) related to any transaction or proposed transaction (whether or not consummated) in which any proceeds of any Advance are applied or proposed to be applied, directly or indirectly, by the Borrower, whether or not the

14

Lender or any such Indemnified Person is a party to such transactions or (ii) related to the facility under this Agreement or the Borrower’s entering into this Agreement, or to any actions or omissions of the Borrower or any of its officers, directors or employees in connection herewith; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to indemnify any such Indemnified Person from or against any portion of such claims, damages, liabilities or expenses arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person.

(c)To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnified Person, 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 or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, any transactions contemplated hereby, any Advance or the use of the proceeds thereof.

This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower and the Lender and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Lender.

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

Article and Section headings used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

If any provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall not be affected or impaired thereby.  The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Lender and each of its 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 obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing, by the Lender or any such Affiliate, to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement to such Lender or its Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not the Lender or such

15

Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations of the Borrower may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to an Affiliate of the Lender different from the Affiliate obligated on such Indebtedness.  The rights of the Lender and its Affiliates under this Section 8.9 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that the Lender or its Affiliates may have.  The Lender agrees to notify the Borrower promptly after any such setoff and application, but the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

(a)This Agreement and any claim, controversy, dispute or cause of action (whether in contract or tort or otherwise) based upon, arising out of or relating to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the Commonwealth of Virginia without deference to conflicts of laws principals.

(b)The Borrower irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that it will not commence any action, litigation or proceeding of any kind or description, whether in law or equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against the Lender or any Related Party thereof in any way relating to this Agreement or the transactions relating hereto, in any forum other than the courts of the Commonwealth of Virginia sitting in City of Williamsburg/James City County, Virginia, and of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each party hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the jurisdiction of such courts and agrees that all claims in respect of any action, litigation or proceeding of any kind or description, whether in law or equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, in any way relating to this Agreement or the transactions relating hereto may be heard and determined in such Virginia court or, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, in such federal court.  Each party hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action, litigation or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Applicable Law.  Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that the Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement against the Borrower or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

(c)The Borrower 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 in any court referred to in clause (b) of this Section.  Each party hereto 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)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 AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY).  EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE,

16

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 PARTY HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

No third-party beneficiary is intended hereby.
