(a) each Lender severally agrees that it will make loans (relative to such Lender, its “Revolving Loans”) to the Administrative Borrower for the account of the applicable Borrower equal to such Lender’s Percentage of the aggregate amount of each Borrowing of Revolving Loans requested by any Borrower (or the Administrative Borrower on behalf of a Borrower) to be made on such day; provided that, in any event, (i) the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans, Swing Line Loans and Total Letter of Credit Outstandings outstanding at any one time shall not exceed the Borrowing Base at such time, (ii) the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans, Swing Line Loans and Total Letter of Credit Outstandings outstanding at any one time based on Non-Leasehold Availability shall not exceed the Maximum Non-Leasehold Availability Amount at such time, and (iii) the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans, Swing Line Loans and Total Letter of Credit Outstandings outstanding at any one time based on Leasehold Availability shall not exceed the Maximum Leasehold Availability Amount at such time;

(b) the Swing Line Lender agrees that it will make loans (its “Swing Line Loans”) to the Administrative Borrower for the account of the applicable Borrower equal to the principal amount of the Swing Line Loan requested by any Borrower (or the Administrative Borrower on behalf of a Borrower) to be made on such day; provided that, in any event, (i) the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans, Swing Line Loans and Total Letter of Credit Outstandings outstanding at any one time shall not exceed the Borrowing Base at such time and (ii) the aggregate principal amount of Swing Line Loans outstanding at any one time shall not exceed the Swing Line Loan Commitment Amount. The Commitment of the Swing Line Lender described in this clause is herein referred to as its “Swing Line Loan Commitment”;

(c) the Agent may, in its discretion, from time to time, upon not less than five (5) days prior notice to the Administrative Borrower (or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no prior notice to the Administrative Borrower), reduce the lending formula(s) with respect to Borrowing Base Assets to the extent that the Agent determines in good faith that the liquidation value of the Borrowing Base Assets or any category thereof has decreased, including any decrease attributable to a change in the nature, quality, turnover or mix of the Borrowing Base Assets. The amount of any decrease in the lending formulas shall have a reasonable relationship to the event, condition or circumstance which is the basis for such decrease as determined by the Agent in good faith. In determining whether to reduce the lending formula(s), the Agent may consider events, conditions, contingencies or risks which are also considered in determining Eligible Inventory, Eligible Pharmacy Scripts, Eligible Pharmacy Receivables, Eligible Real Property or Eligible Leasehold Property, as the case may be, or in establishing Reserves, provided that, to the extent the Agent has established Reserves to address any circumstances, condition, event or contingency in a manner satisfactory to the Agent, the Agent shall not reduce the lending formulas for the same purpose.

(d) in the event that (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Loans, Swing Line Loans and Total Letter of Credit Outstandings outstanding exceeds the Borrowing Base, (ii) the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans, Swing Line Loans and Total Letter of Credit Outstandings based on Eligible Inventory consisting of finished goods that is Perishable Inventory exceeds the sublimit set forth in clause (a)(i)(B)(3) of the definition of Borrowing Base, (iii) the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans, Swing Line Loans and Total Letter of Credit Outstandings based on Eligible Pharmacy Scripts exceeds the sublimit set forth in clause (a)(i)(C)(2) of the definition of Borrowing Base, (iv) the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans, Swing Line Loans and Total Letter of Credit Outstandings based on Eligible Pharmacy Receivables exceeds the sublimit set forth in clause (a)(i)(D) of the definition of Borrowing Base, (v) the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans, Swing Line Loans and Total Letter of Credit Outstandings based on Eligible Real Property exceeds the sublimit set forth in clause (a)(i)(E)(2) of the definition of Borrowing Base, (vi) the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans, Swing Line Loans and Total Letter of Credit Outstandings outstanding based on Non-Leasehold Availability exceeds the Maximum Non-Leasehold Availability Amount, (vii) the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans, Swing Line Loans and Total Letter of Credit Outstandings outstanding based on Leasehold Availability exceeds the Maximum Leasehold Availability Amount, (viii) the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans, Swing Line Loans and Total Letter of Credit Outstandings outstanding based on clause (a)(i)(G) of the definition of Borrowing Base exceeds the Supplemental Junior Availability, (ix) the Total Letter of Credit Outstandings exceeds the Total Letter of Credit commitment, (x) the aggregate amount of the Subfacility Letter of Credit Outstandings exceeds the Subfacility Letter of Credit Commitment Amount, or (xi) the aggregate amount of the Swing Line Loans exceeds the Swing Line Loan Commitment Amount, in each case such event shall not limit, waive or otherwise affect any rights of the Agent or the Lenders in such circumstances or on any future occasions and the Borrowers shall immediately repay to the Agent the entire amount of any such excess(es) for which payment is demanded.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Agent may, at its option, from time to time, at any time on or after an Event of Default and for so long as the same is continuing or upon any other failure of a condition precedent to the making of Loans or the issuance of Letters of Credit hereunder, make such disbursements and advances (“Special Agent Advances”) which the Agent, in its sole discretion, deems necessary or desirable either (x) to preserve or protect the Collateral or any portion thereof or (y) to enhance the likelihood or maximize the amount of repayment by the Borrowers and Guarantors of the Loans and other Obligations, provided, that, (i) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Special Agent Advances which the Agent may make or provide, plus the then outstanding principal amount of additional Loans or Letters of Credit which the Agent or the Issuer may make or provide as set forth in Section 10.20 hereof, shall not exceed the aggregate outstanding amount equal to five (5%) percent of the Borrowing Base, (ii) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Special Agent Advances which the Agent may make or provide plus the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans, Swing Line Loans and Total Letter of Credit Outstandings outstanding with respect to all the Borrowers at any one time shall not exceed the Total Commitment Amount and (iii) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Special Agent Advances which the Agent may make or provide plus the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans, Swing Line Loans and Subfacility Letter of Credit Outstandings outstanding with respect to all the Borrowers at any one time shall not exceed the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount. Special Agent Advances shall be repayable on demand and be secured by the Collateral, provided that, demand shall be made by the Agent for the repayment of any outstanding Special Agent Advance no later than 90 days after the date such Special Agent Advance was made (unless the Required Lenders shall have consented to a later date for demand). Special Agent Advances shall not constitute Loans but shall otherwise constitute Obligations hereunder. Without limitation of its obligations hereunder, each Lender agrees that it shall make available to the Agent, upon the Agent’s demand, in immediately available funds, the amount equal to such Lender’s Percentage of each such Special Agent Advance.

On the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, each Borrower may from time to time borrow, prepay and reborrow Revolving Loans and Swing Line Loans. No Lender shall be required to make any Revolving Loan if, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Revolving Loans of such Lender, together with such Lender’s Percentage of the aggregate amount of all Swing Line Loans and Subfacility Letter of Credit Outstandings, would exceed such Lender’s Percentage of the then existing Revolving Loan Commitment Amount. Furthermore, the Swing Line Lender shall not be required to make Swing Line Loans if, after giving effect thereto, (i) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Swing Line Loans would exceed the then existing Swing Line Loan Commitment Amount or (ii) unless otherwise agreed to by the Swing Line Lender, in its sole discretion, the sum of all Swing Line Loans and Revolving Loans made by the Swing Line Lender plus the Swing Line Lender’s Percentage of the aggregate amount of Subfacility Letter of Credit Outstandings would exceed the Swing Line Lender’s Percentage of the then existing Revolving Loan Commitment Amount.

SECTION 2.1.2 Subfacility Letter of Credit Commitment; Existing Letters of Credit.

(a) From time to time on any Business Day occurring from and after the Closing Date but prior to the Commitment Termination Date, the Issuer agrees that it will

(i) issue one or more import letters of credit or standby letters of credit (relative to such Issuer, its “Subfacility Letter of Credit”) for the account of any Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor in the Stated Amount requested by such Borrower or Subsidiary Guarantor (or the Administrative Borrower on behalf of such Borrower or Subsidiary Guarantor) on such day; provided that (A) the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans, Swing Line Loans and Total Letter of Credit Outstandings outstanding at any one time shall not exceed the Borrowing Base at such time, and (B) the aggregate principal amount of Subfacility Letter of Credit Outstandings to all the Borrowers and Subsidiary Guarantors at any one time shall not exceed the Subfacility Letter of Credit Commitment Amount; or

(ii) extend the Stated Expiry Date of an existing Subfacility Letter of Credit previously issued hereunder.

No Stated Expiry Date shall extend beyond the earlier of (A) the Commitment Termination Date and (B) one year from the date of such initial issuance or, if applicable, most recent extension, in each case unless otherwise agreed to by the Issuer in its sole discretion; provided that in the case of a Stated Expiry Date that extends beyond the Commitment Termination Date, such Subfacility Letter of Credit is fully cash collateralized in a manner satisfactory to the Issuer on the date of its issuance (or extension, if prior to such extension the Stated Expiry Date was prior to the Commitment Termination Date). The Issuer shall not be required to issue or extend the Stated Expiry Date of any Subfacility Letter of Credit if, after giving effect thereto, (1) the sum of the aggregate amount of all Revolving Loans, Swing Line Loans and Total Letter of Credit Outstandings would exceed the Borrowing Base, and (2) the aggregate amount of all Subfacility Letter of Credit Outstandings would exceed the Subfacility Letter of Credit Commitment Amount. For the avoidance of doubt, no Stated Expiry Date shall in any event extend beyond the date which is one year after the Commitment Termination Date, even if the applicable Letter of Credit is fully Cash Collateralized.

(b) The Issuer shall not be required to issue any Subfacility Letter of Credit for the account of a Borrower or a Subsidiary Guarantor or extend the Stated Expiry Date of an existing Subfacility Letter of Credit for the account of a Borrower or a Subsidiary Guarantor unless the Excess

Availability, prior to giving effect to any Reserves with respect to such Subfacility Letter of Credit, on the date of the proposed issuance of any Subfacility Letter of Credit, shall be equal to or greater than: (i) if the proposed Subfacility Letter of Credit is for the purpose of purchasing Eligible Inventory and the documents of title with respect thereto are consigned to the Issuer, the sum of (A) the percentage equal to one hundred (100%) percent minus the then applicable percentage with respect to Eligible Inventory set forth in the definition of the term Borrowing Base multiplied by the Value of such Eligible Inventory, plus (B) freight, taxes, duty and other amounts which the Agent estimates must be paid in connection with such Inventory upon arrival and for delivery to one of such Borrower’s or Subsidiary Guarantor’s locations for Eligible Inventory within the United States of America and (ii) if the proposed Subfacility Letter of Credit is for any other purpose or the documents of title are not consigned to the Issuer in connection with a Subfacility Letter of Credit for the purpose of purchasing Inventory, an amount equal to one hundred (100%) percent of the face amount thereof and all other commitments and obligations made or incurred by the Agent with respect thereto. Effective on the issuance of each Subfacility Letter of Credit, a Reserve shall be established in the applicable amount set forth in Section 2.1.2(b)(i) or Section 2.1.2(b)(ii), except to the extent such Subfacility Letter of Credit is fully cash collateralized pursuant to Section 2.1.2(a).

(c) In connection with Inventory purchased with Subfacility Letters of Credit, the Borrowers and the Guarantors shall, at the Agent’s request, instruct all suppliers, carriers, forwarders, customs brokers, warehouses or others receiving or holding cash, checks, Inventory, documents or instruments in which the Agent holds a security interest to deliver them to the applicable Agent and/or subject to the Agent’s order, and if they shall come into such Borrower’s or Guarantor’s possession, to deliver them, upon the Agent’s request, to the Agent in their original form. The Borrowers and the Guarantors shall also, at the Agent’s request, designate the Agent as the consignee on all bills of lading and other negotiable and non-negotiable documents.

(d) All Existing Letters of Credit listed in Part I of Item 7.2.2(a) of the Disclosure Schedule shall be deemed to have been issued as Subfacility Letters of Credit under this Agreement, shall constitute a Subfacility Letter of Credit and shall be governed by, and participated in by the Lenders pursuant to, the terms of this Agreement.

SECTION 2.1.3 Standby Letter of Credit Commitment.

(a) From time to time on any Business Day occurring from and after the Closing Date but prior to the Commitment Termination Date, the Issuer agrees that it will

(i) issue one or more standby letters of credit (relative to such Issuer, its “Standby Letter of Credit”) for the account of any Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor that is a Restricted Subsidiary in the Stated Amount requested by such Borrower or Subsidiary Guarantor (or the Administrative Borrower on behalf of such Borrower or Subsidiary Guarantor) on such day; provided that (A) Standby Letters of Credit shall be issued only to support workers compensation obligations and bankers acceptances and performance bonds, surety bonds, appeal bonds and performance guarantees of a Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary, in each case, in the ordinary course of business of such Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary consistent with past practice, (B) the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans, Swing Line Loans and Total Letter of Credit Outstandings outstanding at any one time shall not exceed the Borrowing Base at such time and (C) the aggregate principal amount of Standby Letter of Credit Outstandings to all the Borrowers and Subsidiary Guarantors at any one time, plus the Subfacility Letter of Credit Outstandings shall not exceed the Total Letter of Credit Commitment Amount; or

(ii) extend the Stated Expiry Date of an existing Standby Letter of Credit previously issued hereunder.

No Stated Expiry Date shall extend beyond the earlier of (A) the Commitment Termination Date and (B) one year from the date of initial issuance or, if applicable, most recent extension, in each case unless otherwise agreed to by the Issuer in its sole discretion; provided that in the case of a Stated Expiry Date that extends beyond the Commitment Termination Date, such Standby Letter of Credit is fully cash collateralized in a manner satisfactory to the Issuer on the date of its issuance (or extension, if prior to such extension the Stated Expiry Date was prior to the Commitment Termination Date). The Issuer shall not be required to issue or extend the Stated Maturity Date of any Standby Letter of Credit if, after giving effect thereto, (1) the aggregate amount of all Standby Letter of Credit Outstandings plus the Subfacility Letter of Credit Outstandings would exceed the Total Letter of Credit Commitment Amount or (2) the sum of the aggregate amount of the Total Letter of Credit Outstandings plus the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Loans and Swing Line Loans then outstanding would exceed the Total Commitment Amount. For the avoidance of doubt, no Stated Expiry Date shall in any event extend beyond the date which is one year after the Commitment Termination Date, even if the applicable Letter of Credit is fully Cash Collateralized.

(b) The Issuer shall not be required to issue any Standby Letter of Credit for the account of a Borrower or extend the Stated Expiry Date of an existing Standby Letter of Credit for the account of a Borrower unless the Excess Availability, prior to giving effect to any Reserves with respect to such Standby Letter of Credit, on the date of the proposed issuance of any Standby Letter of Credit, shall be equal to or greater than an amount equal to the sum (the “Applicable Amount”) of (i) one hundred percent (100%) of the face amount thereof plus (ii) all other commitments and obligations made or incurred by the Agent with respect thereto. Effective on the issuance of each Standby Letter of Credit, a Reserve shall be established in the Applicable Amount for such Standby Letter of Credit, except to the extent such Standby Letter of Credit is fully Cash Collateralized pursuant to Section 2.1.3(a).

(c) The Issuer shall not be required to issue any Standby Letter of Credit if it is to be used other than as set forth in Section 2.1.3(a)(i)(A) above.

(d) All Existing Letters of Credit listed in Part II of Item 7.2.2(a) of the Disclosure Schedule shall be deemed to have been issued as Standby Letters of Credit under this Agreement, shall constitute a Standby Letter of Credit and shall be and shall be governed by, and participated in by the Lenders pursuant to, the terms of this Agreement.

SECTION 2.2 Reduction of the Commitment Amounts. The Commitment Amounts are subject to reduction from time to time as set forth below.

SECTION 2.2.1 Optional. Winn-Dixie may, from time to time on any Business Day occurring after the Closing Date, voluntarily reduce the undrawn amount of the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount and the Swing Line Loan Commitment Amount, the unutilized Subfacility Letter of Credit Commitment Amount or the unutilized Standby Letter of Credit Commitment Amount on the Business Day so specified by Winn-Dixie without premium or penalty (subject to Section 4.4 hereof); provided, however, that all such reductions shall require at least one Business Day’s prior notice to the Agent and be permanent, and any partial reduction of (a) any Commitment Amount other than the Swing Line Loan Commitment Amount shall be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 and in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and (b) the Swing Line Loan Commitment Amount shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 and in an integral multiple of $100,000. Any optional or mandatory reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount pursuant to the terms of this Agreement which reduces the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount below the sum of (i) the Swing Line Loan Commitment Amount

and (ii) the Subfacility Letter of Credit Commitment Amount shall result in an automatic and corresponding reduction of the Swing Line Loan Commitment Amount and/or Subfacility Letter of Credit Commitment Amount (as directed by Winn-Dixie in a notice to the Agent delivered together with the notice of such voluntary reduction in the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount) to an aggregate amount not in excess of the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount, as so reduced, without any further action on the part of the Swing Line Lender or the Issuer.

SECTION 2.2.2 Mandatory. The Revolving Loan Commitment Amount shall, without any further action, automatically and permanently be reduced on the Commitment Termination Date so that the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount equals $0.

SECTION 2.3 Borrowing Procedures. Loans (other than Swing Line Loans) shall be made by the Lenders in accordance with Section 2.3.1, and Swing Line Loans shall be made by the Swing Line Lender in accordance with Section 2.3.2.

SECTION 2.3.1 Borrowing Procedure. In the case of Loans other than Swing Line Loans, by delivering a Borrowing Request to the Agent on or before 12:00 noon (New York time) on a Business Day, a Borrower (or the Administrative Borrower on behalf of such Borrower) may from time to time irrevocably request, on the same day as the proposed Borrowing in the case of Base Rate Loans, or three Business Days’ notice in the case of LIBO Rate Loans, and in either case not more than five Business Days’ notice, that a Borrowing be made, in the case of LIBO Rate Loans, in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 and an integral multiple of $1,000,000, in the case of Base Rate Loans, in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 and an integral multiple of $500,000 or, in either case, in the unused amount of the applicable Commitment. On the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, each Borrowing shall be comprised of the type of Loans, and shall be made on the Business Day, specified in such Borrowing Request. In the case of LIBO Rate Loans, on or before 11:00 a.m. (New York time), and in the case of Base Rate Loans other than Swing Line Loans, on or before 3:00 p.m. (New York time), on such specified Business Day each Lender that has a Commitment to make the Loans being requested shall deposit with the Agent same day funds in an amount equal to such Lender’s Percentage of the requested Borrowing. Such deposit will be made to an account which the Agent shall specify from time to time by notice to the Lenders. To the extent funds are received from the Lenders, the Agent shall make such funds available to the applicable Borrower by wire transfer to the accounts such Borrower shall have specified in its Borrowing Request. No Lender’s obligation to make any Loan shall be affected by any other Lender’s failure to make any Loan.

SECTION 2.3.2 Swing Line Loans.

(a) By telephonic notice to the Swing Line Lender on or before 12:00 noon (New York time) on a Business Day (followed (on the same Business Day) by the delivery of a confirming Borrowing Request), a Borrower (or the Administrative Borrower on such Borrower’s behalf) may from time to time irrevocably request that Swing Line Loans be made by the Swing Line Lender in an aggregate minimum principal amount of $500,000 and an integral multiple of $100,000. All Swing Line Loans shall be made as Base Rate Loans and shall not be entitled to be converted into LIBO Rate Loans. The proceeds of each Swing Line Loan shall be made available by the Swing Line Lender to the applicable Borrower by wire transfer to the account such Borrower shall have specified in its notice therefor by the close of business on the Business Day telephonic notice is received by the Swing Line Lender. The Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any certification, notice or other communication permitted to be made by telephone hereunder and clause (a)(ii) of Section 3.1.1 believed by it to be genuine and correct. The Borrowers shall not request (and shall not be permitted to request) any Swing Line Loans when any Default has occurred and is continuing.

(b) If (i) any Swing Line Loan shall be outstanding for more than four Business Days, (ii) any Swing Line Loan is or will be outstanding on a date when a Borrower requests that a Revolving Loan be made, or (iii) any Default shall occur and be continuing, then each Lender (other than the Swing Line Lender) irrevocably agrees that it will, at the request of the Swing Line Lender (and the Swing Line Lender agrees to make such request by the fifth Business Day that any Swing Line Loan is outstanding), (A) make a Revolving Loan (which shall initially be funded as a Base Rate Loan) in an amount equal to such Lender’s Percentage of the aggregate principal amount of all such Swing Line Loans then outstanding or (B) if, for any reason, it cannot make a Revolving Loan, purchase a participation in an amount equal to such Lender’s Percentage of the aggregate principal amount of all Swing Line Loans outstanding (in either case, such outstanding Swing Line Loans hereinafter referred to as the “Refunded Swing Line Loans”). On or before 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the first Business Day following receipt by each Lender of a request to make Revolving Loans as provided in the preceding sentence, each Lender shall deposit in an account specified by the Swing Line Lender the amount so requested in same day funds and such funds shall be applied by the Swing Line Lender to repay the Refunded Swing Line Loans. At the time the Lenders make the above referenced Revolving Loans the Swing Line Lender shall be deemed to have made, in consideration of the making of the Refunded Swing Line Loans, Revolving Loans in an amount equal to the Swing Line Lender’s Percentage of the aggregate principal amount of the Refunded Swing Line Loans. Upon the making (or deemed making, in the case of the Swing Line Lender) of any Revolving Loans pursuant to this clause, the amount so funded shall become outstanding under such Lender’s Revolving Note and shall no longer be owed under the Swing Line Note. All interest payable with respect to any Revolving Loans made (or deemed made, in the case of the Swing Line Lender) pursuant to this clause shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect the period of time during which the Swing Line Lender had outstanding Swing Line Loans in respect of which such Revolving Loans were made. Each Lender’s obligation to make the Revolving Loans (or purchase participations) referred to in this clause shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the Swing Line Lender, any Obligor or any Person for any reason whatsoever; (ii) the occurrence or continuance of any Default; (iii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of any Obligor; (iv) the acceleration or maturity of any Obligations or the termination of any Commitment after the making of any Swing Line Loan; (v) any breach of any Loan Document by any Person; or (vi) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

SECTION 2.4 Continuation and Conversion Elections. By delivering a Continuation/ Conversion Notice to the Agent on or before 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on a Business Day, a Borrower (or the Administrative Borrower on such Borrower’s behalf) may from time to time irrevocably elect, on not less than one Business Day’s notice in the case of conversions to or continuations of Base Rate Loans, or three Business Days’ notice in the case of conversions to or continuations of LIBO Rate Loans, and in either case not more than five Business Days’ notice, that all, or any portion in an aggregate minimum amount of $5,000,000 and an integral multiple of $1,000,000 be, in the case of Base Rate Loans, converted into LIBO Rate Loans or be, in the case of LIBO Rate Loans, converted into Base Rate Loans or continued as LIBO Rate Loans (in the absence of delivery of a Continuation/Conversion Notice with respect to any LIBO Rate Loan at least three Business Days (but not more than five Business Days) before the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, such LIBO Rate Loan shall, on such last day, automatically convert to a Base Rate Loan); provided, however, that (x) each such conversion or continuation shall be pro rated among the applicable outstanding Loans of all Lenders that have made such Loans, and (y) no portion of the outstanding principal amount of any Loans may be continued as, or be converted into, LIBO Rate Loans when any Default has occurred and is continuing unless the Agent otherwise agrees.

SECTION 2.5 Funding. Each Lender may, if it so elects, fulfill its obligation to make, continue or convert LIBO Rate Loans hereunder by causing one of its foreign branches or Affiliates (or an international banking facility created by such Lender) to make or maintain such LIBO Rate Loan; provided, however, that such LIBO Rate Loan shall nonetheless be deemed to have been made and to be held by such Lender, and the obligation of a Borrower to repay such LIBO Rate Loan shall nevertheless be to such Lender for the account of such foreign branch, Affiliate or international banking facility. In addition, each Borrower hereby consents and agrees that, for purposes of any determination to be made for purposes of Section 4.1, 4.2, 4.3 or 4.4, it shall be conclusively assumed that each Lender elected to fund all LIBO Rate Loans by purchasing Dollar deposits in its LIBOR Office’s interbank eurodollar market.

SECTION 2.6 Issuance Procedures. By delivering to the Agent an Issuance Request on or before 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on a Business Day, a Borrower (or the Administrative Borrower on such Borrower’s behalf) may from time to time irrevocably request on not less than three nor more than ten Business Days’ notice, in the case of an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit and not less than three Business Days’ prior notice, in the case of a request for the extension of the Stated Expiry Date of an outstanding Letter of Credit (in each case, unless a shorter notice period is agreed to by the Issuer, in its sole discretion), that the Issuer issue, or extend the Stated Expiry Date of, a Letter of Credit in a minimum amount of $25,000 in such form as may be requested by such Borrower and approved by such Issuer, solely for the purposes described in Section 7.1.7. Each Letter of Credit shall by its terms be stated to expire on a date (its “Stated Expiry Date”) no later than the earlier to occur of (a) the Commitment Termination Date or (b) one year from the date of its initial issuance or extension, in each case unless otherwise agreed to by the Issuer in its sole discretion; provided that in the case of a Stated Expiry Date that extends beyond the Commitment Termination Date, such Letter of Credit is fully cash collateralized in a manner satisfactory to the Issuer on the date of its issuance (or extension, if prior to such extension the Stated Expiry Date was prior to the Commitment Termination Date). Each Issuer will make available to the beneficiary thereof the original of the Letter of Credit which it issues.

SECTION 2.6.1 Other Lenders’ Participation. Upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, and without further action, each Lender (other than such Issuer) shall be deemed to have irrevocably purchased, to the extent of its Percentage, a participation interest in such Letter of Credit (including the Contingent Liability and any Reimbursement Obligation with respect thereto), and such Lender shall, to the extent of its Percentage, be responsible for reimbursing within one Business Day the Issuer for Reimbursement Obligations which have not been reimbursed by the Borrowers in accordance with Section 2.6.2 or which have been required to be returned or disgorged by the Issuer or the Agent. In addition, such Lender shall, to the extent of its Percentage, be entitled to receive a ratable portion of the Subfacility Letter of Credit fees payable pursuant to Section 3.3.3 with respect to each Subfacility Letter of Credit or the Standby Letter of Credit fees payable pursuant to Section 3.3.4 with respect to each Standby Letter of Credit (in each case other than the Fronting Fee), and of interest payable pursuant to Section 3.2 with respect to any Reimbursement Obligation. To the extent that any Lender has reimbursed any Issuer for a Disbursement, such Lender shall be entitled to receive its ratable portion of any amounts subsequently received (from the Borrower or otherwise) in respect of such Disbursement.

SECTION 2.6.2 Disbursements. The Issuer will notify the Administrative Borrower and the Agent promptly of the presentment for payment of any Letter of Credit issued by the Issuer, together with notice of the date (the “Disbursement Date”) such payment shall be made (each such payment, a “Disbursement”). Subject to the terms and provisions of such Letter of Credit and this Agreement, the Issuer shall make such payment to the beneficiary (or its designee) of such Letter of Credit. Prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the first Business Day following the Disbursement Date, the applicable Borrower will reimburse the Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuer, for all amounts which the Issuer has disbursed under such Letter of Credit together with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to

the rate per annum then in effect for Base Rate Loans pursuant to Section 3.2 for the period from the Disbursement Date through the date of such reimbursement. Without limiting in any way the foregoing and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any separate application for any Letter of Credit, each Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that it shall be obligated to reimburse the Issuer upon each Disbursement of a Letter of Credit, and it shall be deemed to be the obligor for purposes of each such Letter of Credit issued hereunder (whether the account party on such Letter of Credit is a Borrower or a Subsidiary Guarantor).

SECTION 2.6.3 Reimbursement. The obligation (a “Reimbursement Obligation”) of each Borrower under Section 2.6.2 to reimburse the Issuer with respect to each Disbursement (including interest thereon), and, upon the failure of a Borrower to reimburse the Issuer (or upon the disgorgement of any amounts theretofore reimbursed by a Borrower), each Lender’s obligation under Section 2.6.1 to reimburse the Issuer, shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment which any Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, may have or have had against the Issuer or any Lender, including any defense based upon the failure of any Disbursement to conform to the terms of the applicable Letter of Credit (if, in the Issuer’s good faith opinion, such Disbursement is determined to be appropriate), or any non-application or misapplication by the beneficiary of the proceeds of such Letter of Credit; provided, however, that after paying in full its Reimbursement Obligation hereunder, nothing herein shall adversely affect the right of any Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, to commence any proceeding against the Issuer for any wrongful Disbursement made by the Issuer under a Letter of Credit as a result of acts or omissions constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Issuer.

SECTION 2.6.4 Deemed Disbursements. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Default under Section 8.1.10 or upon notification by the Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) to any Borrower of its obligations under this Section, following the occurrence and during the continuation of any other Event of Default,

(a) the aggregate Stated Amount of all Letters of Credit shall, without demand upon or notice to any Borrower or any other Person, be deemed to have been paid or disbursed by the Issuer of such Letters of Credit (notwithstanding that such amount may not in fact have been paid or disbursed); and

(b) such Borrower shall be immediately obligated to reimburse the Issuer for the amount deemed to have been so paid or disbursed by such Issuer.

Amounts payable by such Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be deposited in immediately available funds with the Agent and held as collateral security for the Reimbursement Obligations. When all Defaults giving rise to the deemed disbursements under this Section have been cured or waived the Agent shall promptly return to such Borrower all amounts then on deposit with the Agent pursuant to this Section which have not been applied to the satisfaction of the Reimbursement Obligations or other Obligations.

SECTION 2.6.5 Nature of Reimbursement Obligations. Each Borrower, each other Obligor and, to the extent set forth in Section 2.6.1 as to each Lender’s participation interest in such Letter of Credit, each Lender shall assume all risks of the acts, omissions or misuse of any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof. The Issuer (except to the extent of its own gross negligence, lack of good faith or willful misconduct) shall not be responsible for:

(a) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any Letter of Credit or any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of a Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged;

(b) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit, or the rights or benefits thereunder or the proceeds thereof in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason;

(c) failure of the beneficiary to comply fully with conditions required in order to demand payment under a Letter of Credit;

(d) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise; or

(e) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document or draft required in order to make a Disbursement under a Letter of Credit.

None of the foregoing shall affect, impair or prevent the vesting of any of the rights or powers granted to any Issuer or any Lender hereunder. In furtherance and not in limitation or derogation of any of the foregoing, any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Issuer in good faith and without gross negligence or willful misconduct shall be binding upon each Obligor and each such Secured Party, and shall not put the Issuer under any resulting liability to any Obligor or any Secured Party, as the case may be. In any event, if any Obligor fails to object with specificity in writing to any draw under a Letter of Credit, by the close of business on the Business Day following the date notice of such draw is received by a Borrower from the Issuer, such Obligor shall be deemed to have waived any objection to the same.

SECTION 2.7 Register; Notes.

(a) Each Lender may maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the Indebtedness of each Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender to maintain such account or accounts shall not limit or otherwise affect any Obligations of any Borrower or any other Obligor.

(b) (i) Each Borrower hereby designates the Agent to serve as such Borrower’s agent, solely for the purpose of this clause (b), to maintain a register (the “Register”) on which the Agent will record each Lender’s Commitment, the Loans made by each Lender and each repayment in respect of the principal amount of the Loans of each Lender and annexed to which the Agent shall retain a copy of each Lender Assignment Agreement delivered to the Agent pursuant to Section 10.11.1. Failure to make any recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect any Borrower’s obligation in respect of such Loans. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and each Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person in whose name a Loan (and as provided in clause (ii) the Note evidencing such Loan) is registered as the owner thereof for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice or any provision herein to the contrary. A Lender’s Commitment and the Loans made pursuant thereto may be assigned or otherwise transferred in whole or in part only by registration of such assignment or transfer in the Register. Any assignment or transfer of a Lender’s Commitment or the Loans made pursuant thereto shall be registered in the Register only upon delivery to the Agent of a Lender Assignment Agreement duly executed by the Assignor Lender thereof (and a Borrower, when its consent is required hereunder). No assignment or transfer of a Lender’s Commitment or the Loans made pursuant thereto shall be effective unless such assignment or transfer shall have been recorded in the Register by the Agent as provided in this Section 2.7.

(ii) Each Borrower agrees that such Borrower will execute and deliver to each Lender a Note evidencing the Loans made by such Lender. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes each Lender to make (or cause to be made) appropriate notations on the grid attached to such Lender’s Notes (or on any continuation of such grid), which notations, if made, shall evidence, inter alia, the date of, the outstanding principal amount of, and the interest rate and Interest Period applicable to the Loans evidenced thereby. Such notations shall, to the extent not inconsistent with the notations made by the Agent in the Register, be conclusive and binding absent manifest error; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender to make any such notations shall not limit or otherwise affect any Obligations of any Borrower or any other Obligor. The Loans evidenced by each such Note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 10.11.1) be payable to the order of the payee named therein and its registered assigns. Subject to the provisions of Section 10.11.1, a Note and the obligation evidenced thereby may be assigned or otherwise transferred in whole or in part only by registration of such assignment or transfer of such Note and the obligation evidenced thereby in the Register (and each Note shall expressly so provide). Any assignment or transfer of all or part of an obligation evidenced by a Note shall be registered in the Register only upon surrender for registration of assignment or transfer of the Note evidencing such obligation, accompanied by a Lender Assignment Agreement duly executed by the assignor thereof (and a Borrower, when its consent is required hereunder) and the compliance by the parties thereto with the other requirements of Section 10.11.1, and thereupon, if requested by the assignee, one or more new Notes shall be issued to the designated assignee and the old Note shall be returned by the Agent to the applicable Borrower marked “exchanged”. No assignment of a Note and the obligation evidenced thereby shall be effective unless it shall have been recorded in the Register by the Agent as provided in this Section.

SECTION 2.8 Joint and Several Liability. Each Borrower shall be jointly and severally liable for all Revolving Loans, Letter of Credit Outstandings and other Obligations of the Borrowers. Each Borrower shall have a right of contribution against the other Borrowers to the extent payments made by such Borrower exceed the amount of Credit Extensions and related Obligations directly obtained by such Borrower.

SECTION 3.2.2 Default Rates. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, if demanded by the Agent (or automatically in the case of the occurrence of an event described in Section 8.1.10), the Borrower shall pay to the extent permitted by law:

SECTION 3.3.1 Unused Line Fee.

All unused line fees payable pursuant to this Section shall be calculated on a year comprised of 360 days and payable by the Borrowers in arrears on each Monthly Payment Date, commencing with the first Monthly Payment Date following the Closing Date, and on the Commitment Termination Date. The making of Swing Line Loans shall not constitute usage of the Revolving Loan Commitment with respect to the calculation of unused line fees to be paid by the Borrowers to the Lenders.

SECTION 3.3.2 Agents’ Fees. The Borrowers agree to pay the fees in the amounts, on the dates and on the terms set forth in the Fee Letter.

(b) all payments at any time received by Agent with respect to outstanding Revolving Loans shall be allocated as follows: (i) the product of the amount of such payments multiplied by the Leasehold Availability Percentage shall be deemed to be applied to Revolving Loans made based on Leasehold Availability and (ii) the product of the amount of such payments multiplied by the Non-Leasehold Availability Percentage shall be deemed to be applied to Revolving Loans that were made based on Non-Leasehold Availability; except that,

from and after the Leasehold Availability Effective Date, for purposes of determining the repayment of the Loans and the interest on the Loans in accordance with Section 3.1 and Section 3.2 hereof, on any date of determination: (x) all outstanding Revolving Loans shall first be deemed to be Revolving Loans that were made based on the Supplemental Junior Availability as of such date to the extent of the Maximum Supplemental Junior Availability Amount and Revolving Loans outstanding as of such date that are in excess of the sum of the Supplemental Junior Availability shall be deemed to be Revolving Loans that were made based on Leasehold Availability and Non-Leasehold Availability in accordance with Section 3.4(a) hereof, and (y) all payments at any time received by Agent with respect to outstanding Revolving Loans shall be first deemed to be applied to Revolving Loans that were made based on Leasehold Availability and Non-Leasehold Availability in accordance with Section 3.4(b) hereof, and any portion of such payment received by Agent that exceeds the Leasehold Availability and Non-Leasehold Availability shall be next deemed to be applied to Revolving Loans that were made based on the Supplemental Junior Availability.

ARTICLE IV

CERTAIN LIBO RATE AND OTHER PROVISIONS

SECTION 4.1 LIBO Rate Lending Unlawful. If any Lender shall determine (which determination shall, upon notice thereof to the Administrative Borrower and the Agent, be conclusive and

binding on the Borrowers) that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law makes it unlawful, or any Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for such Lender to make or continue any Loan as, or to convert any Loan into, a LIBO Rate Loan, the obligations of such Lender to make, continue or convert any such LIBO Rate Loan shall, upon such determination, forthwith be suspended until such Lender shall notify the Agent that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, and all outstanding LIBO Rate Loans payable to such Lender shall automatically convert into Base Rate Loans at the end of the then current Interest Periods with respect thereto or sooner, if required by such law or assertion.

SECTION 4.2 Deposits Unavailable; Market Disruptions. If the Agent shall have determined that

(a) Dollar deposits in the relevant amount and for the relevant Interest Period are not available to it in its relevant market; or

(b) by reason of circumstances affecting its relevant market, adequate means do not exist for ascertaining the interest rate applicable hereunder to LIBO Rate Loans;

then, upon notice from the Agent to the Administrative Borrower and the Lenders, the obligations of all Lenders under Section 2.3 and Section 2.4 to make or continue any Loans as, or to convert any Loans into, LIBO Rate Loans shall forthwith be suspended until the Agent shall notify the Administrative Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.

SECTION 4.3 Increased LIBO Rate Loan Costs, etc. The Borrowers agree to reimburse each Lender and Issuer for any increase in the cost to such Lender or Issuer of, or any reduction in the amount of any sum receivable by such Secured Party in respect of, such Secured Party’s Commitments and the making of Credit Extensions hereunder (including the making, continuing or maintaining (or of its obligation to make or continue) any Loans as, or of converting (or of its obligation to convert) any Loans into, LIBO Rate Loans) that arise in connection with any change in, or the introduction, adoption, effectiveness, interpretation, reinterpretation or phase-in after the Closing Date of, any law or regulation, directive, guideline, decision or request (whether or not having the force of law) of any Governmental Authority, except for such changes with respect to increased capital costs and Taxes which are governed by Sections 4.5 and 4.6, respectively. Each affected Secured Party shall promptly notify the Agent and the Administrative Borrower in writing of the occurrence of any such event, stating the reasons therefor and the additional amount required fully to compensate such Secured Party for such increased cost or reduced amount. Such additional amounts shall be payable by the Borrowers directly to such Secured Party within five days of its receipt of such notice, and such notice shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers.

SECTION 4.4 Funding Losses. In the event any Lender shall incur any loss or expense (including any loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to make or continue any portion of the principal amount of any Loan as, or to convert any portion of the principal amount of any Loan into, a LIBO Rate Loan) as a result of

(a) any conversion or repayment or prepayment of the principal amount of any LIBO Rate Loan on a date other than the scheduled last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, whether pursuant to Article III or otherwise (and including without limitation any repayment or prepayment or assignment pursuant to Sections 2.8, 4.11 or 10.11.1(f)), or the Borrowers failing to make a prepayment after giving notice thereof);

(b) any Loans not being made as LIBO Rate Loans in accordance with the Borrowing Request therefor; or

(c) any Loans not being continued as, or converted into, LIBO Rate Loans in accordance with the Continuation/Conversion Notice therefor;

then, upon the written notice of such Lender to the Administrative Borrower (with a copy to the Agent), the Administrative Borrower shall, within five days of its receipt thereof, pay directly to such Lender such amount as will (in the reasonable determination of such Lender) reimburse such Lender for such loss or expense. Such written notice shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers.

SECTION 4.5 Increased Capital Costs. If any change in, or the introduction, adoption, effectiveness, interpretation, reinterpretation or phase-in of, any law or regulation, directive, guideline, decision or request (whether or not having the force of law) of any Governmental Authority affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by any Secured Party or any Person controlling such Secured Party, and such Secured Party determines (in good faith but in its sole and absolute discretion) that the rate of return on its or such controlling Person’s capital as a consequence of the Commitments or the Credit Extensions made, or the Letters of Credit participated in, by such Secured Party is reduced to a level below that which such Secured Party or such controlling Person could have achieved but for the occurrence of any such circumstance, then upon notice from time to time by such Secured Party to the Administrative Borrower, the Borrowers shall within five days following receipt of such notice pay directly to such Secured Party additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Secured Party or such controlling Person for such reduction in rate of return. A statement of such Secured Party as to any such additional amount or amounts shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers. In determining such amount, such Secured Party may use any method of averaging and attribution that it (in its sole and good faith discretion) shall deem applicable.

SECTION 4.6 Taxes. The Borrowers covenant and agree as follows with respect to Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by the Borrowers under each Loan Document shall be made without setoff, counterclaim or other defense, and free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any Taxes, except to the extent any such Taxes are imposed by applicable law. In the event that any Taxes are imposed and required by applicable law to be deducted or withheld from any payment required to be made by any Obligor to or on behalf of any Secured Party under any Loan Document, then:

(i) subject to clause (f), if such Taxes are Non-Excluded Taxes, the amount of such payment shall be increased as may be necessary so that such payment is made, after withholding or deduction for or on account of such Taxes, in an amount that is not less than the amount provided for in such Loan Document; and

(ii) the applicable Borrower shall withhold the full amount of such Taxes from such payment (as increased pursuant to clause (a)(i)) and shall pay such amount to the Governmental Authority imposing such Taxes in accordance with applicable law.

(b) In addition, the Borrowers shall pay all Other Taxes imposed to the relevant Governmental Authority imposing such Other Taxes in accordance with applicable law.

(c) As promptly as practicable after the payment of any Taxes or Other Taxes, and in any event within 45 days of any such payment being due, the Borrowers shall furnish to the Agent a copy of an official receipt (or a certified copy thereof) evidencing the payment of such Taxes or Other Taxes. The Agent shall make copies thereof available to any Lender upon request therefor.

(d) Subject to clause (f), the Borrowers shall indemnify each Secured Party for any Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes levied, imposed or assessed on (and whether or not paid directly by) such Secured Party whether or not such Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes are correctly or legally asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. Promptly upon having knowledge that any such Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes have been levied, imposed or assessed, and promptly upon notice thereof by any Secured Party, the applicable Borrower shall pay such Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes directly to the relevant Governmental Authority (provided, however, that no Secured Party shall be under any obligation to provide any such notice to the Borrowers). In addition, the Borrowers shall indemnify each Secured Party for any incremental Taxes that may become payable by such Secured Party as a result of any failure of any Borrower to pay any Taxes when due to the appropriate Governmental Authority or to deliver to the Agent, pursuant to clause (c), documentation evidencing the payment of Taxes or Other Taxes. With respect to indemnification for Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes actually paid by any Secured Party or the indemnification provided in the immediately preceding sentence, such indemnification shall be made within 30 days after the date such Secured Party makes written demand therefor. The Borrowers acknowledge that any payment made to any Secured Party or to any Governmental Authority in respect of the indemnification obligations of the Borrowers provided in this clause shall constitute a payment in respect of which the provisions of clause (a) and this clause shall apply.

(e) Each Non-U.S. Lender, on or prior to the date on which such Non-U.S. Lender becomes a Lender hereunder (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Administrative Borrower or the Agent, but only for so long as such Non-U.S. Lender is legally entitled to do so), shall deliver to the Administrative Borrower and the Agent either (i) two duly completed copies of either (x) Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN claiming eligibility of Non-U.S. Lenders to the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is party or (y) Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, or in either case an applicable successor form; or (ii) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender that is not legally entitled to deliver either form listed in clause (e)(i), (x) a certificate to the effect that such Non-U.S. Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of a Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a controlled foreign corporation receiving interest from a related person within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (referred to as an “Exemption Certificate”) and (y) two duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or applicable successor form.

(f) The Borrowers shall not be obligated to pay any additional amounts to any Lender pursuant to clause (a)(i), or to indemnify any Lender pursuant to clause (d), in respect of United States federal withholding taxes to the extent imposed as a result of (i) the failure of such Lender to deliver to a Borrower the form or forms and/or an Exemption Certificate, as applicable to such Lender, pursuant to clause (e), (ii) such form or forms and/or Exemption Certificate not establishing a complete exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax or the information or certifications made therein by the Lender being untrue or inaccurate on the date delivered in any material respect, or (iii) the Lender designating a successor lending office at which it maintains its Loans which has the effect of causing such Lender to become obligated for tax payments in excess of those in effect immediately prior to such designation; provided, however, that the Borrowers shall be obligated to gross up any payments to any such Lender pursuant to clause (a)(i), and to indemnify any such Lender pursuant to clause (d), in respect of United States federal withholding taxes if (i) any such failure to deliver a form or forms or an Exemption Certificate or the failure of such form or forms or Exemption Certificate to establish a complete exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax or inaccuracy or untruth contained therein resulted from a change in any applicable statute, treaty, regulation or other applicable law or any interpretation of any of the foregoing occurring after the Closing Date, which change rendered such Lender no longer

legally entitled to deliver such form or forms or Exemption Certificate or otherwise ineligible for a complete exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax, or rendered the information or certifications made in such form or forms or Exemption Certificate untrue or inaccurate in a material respect, (ii) the redesignation of the Lender’s lending office was made at the request of any Borrower or (iii) the obligation to pay any additional amounts to any such Lender pursuant to clause (a)(i) or to indemnify any such Lender pursuant to clause (d) is with respect to an Assignee Lender that becomes an Assignee Lender as a result of an assignment made at the request of any Borrower.

SECTION 4.7 Payments, Computations, etc. Unless otherwise expressly provided in a Loan Document, all payments by the Borrowers pursuant to each Loan Document shall be made by the Borrowers to the Agent for the pro rata account of the Secured Parties entitled to receive such payment. All payments shall be made without setoff, deduction or counterclaim not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the date due in same day or immediately available funds to such account as the Agent shall specify from time to time by notice to the Administrative Borrower. Funds received after that time shall be deemed to have been received by the Agent on the next succeeding Business Day. The Agent shall promptly remit in same day funds to each Secured Party its share, if any, of such payments received by the Agent for the account of such Secured Party. All interest (including interest on LIBO Rate Loans) and fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring during the period for which such interest or fee is payable over a year comprised of 360 days (or, in the case of interest on a Base Rate Loan, 365 days or, if appropriate, 366 days). Payments due on other than a Business Day shall (except as otherwise required by clause (c) of the definition of “Interest Period”) be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in computing interest and fees in connection with that payment. The Agent shall apply amounts contained in the accounts of the Borrowers maintained with the Agent to amounts due to the Agent and the Lenders under the Loan Documents when due.

SECTION 4.8 Sharing of Payments. If any Secured Party shall obtain any payment or other recovery (whether voluntary, involuntary, by application of setoff or otherwise) on account of any Credit Extension or Reimbursement Obligation (other than pursuant to the terms of Sections 4.3, 4.4, 4.5 or 4.6) in excess of its pro rata share of payments obtained by all Secured Parties, such Secured Party shall purchase from the other Secured Parties such participations in Credit Extensions made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Secured Party to share the excess payment or other recovery ratably (to the extent such other Secured Parties were entitled to receive a portion of such payment or recovery) with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of the excess payment or other recovery is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Secured Party, the purchase shall be rescinded and each Secured Party which has sold a participation to the purchasing Secured Party shall repay to the purchasing Secured Party the purchase price to the ratable extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such selling Secured Party’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (a) the amount of such selling Secured Party’s required repayment to the purchasing Secured Party to (b) total amount so recovered from the purchasing Secured Party) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Secured Party in respect of the total amount so recovered. The Borrowers agree that any Secured Party purchasing a participation from another Secured Party pursuant to this Section may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including pursuant to Section 4.9) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Secured Party were the direct creditor of the applicable Borrower in the amount of such participation. If under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law any Secured Party receives a secured claim in lieu of a setoff to which this Section applies, such Secured Party shall, to the extent practicable, exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of the Secured Parties entitled under this Section to share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim.

SECTION 4.9 Setoff. Each Secured Party shall, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default described in Section 8.1.10 or, with the consent of the Required Lenders, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any other Default, have the right to appropriate and apply to the payment of the Obligations owing to it (whether or not then due), and (as security for such Obligations) the Borrowers hereby grant to each Secured Party a continuing security interest in, any and all balances, credits, deposits, accounts or moneys of the Borrowers then or thereafter maintained with such Secured Party; provided, however, that any such appropriation and application shall be subject to the provisions of Section 4.8. Each Secured Party agrees promptly to notify the Administrative Borrower and the Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Secured Party; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of each Secured Party under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff under applicable law or otherwise) which such Secured Party may have.

SECTION 4.10 Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, as to any Lender which (a) has refused (which refusal has not been retracted) to make available its portion of any Borrowing or to fund its portion of any unreimbursed (or disgorged) payment under Section 2.6.1 or (b) has given notice to the Agent and/or the Administrative Borrower that it does not intend to comply with its obligations under Section 2.1 or under Section 2.6.1:

(i) such Lender shall not be deemed a Required Lender hereunder and such Lender’s (A) Revolving Loan Commitments, (B) Loans and (C) Letter of Credit Outstandings shall be excluded from the calculations set forth in the definition of Required Lenders above;

(ii) such Lender shall not be entitled to receive any portion of (A) Subfacility Letter of Credit fees, (B) Standby Letter of Credit Fees, (C) interest payable with respect to any Disbursements or (D) amounts received in respect of Disbursements; and

(iii) such Lender shall not be entitled to receive any unused line fee.

In addition to the foregoing, and notwithstanding Section 2.1.2, if any Lender shall fall within the description set forth in clause (a) or (b) above, the Issuer shall not be required to issue any Letter of Credit, unless arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer have been entered into to eliminate the Issuer’s risk with respect to the participation in Letters of Credit by such Lender, including cash collateralizing such Lender’s Subfacility Letter of Credit Commitment or such Lender’s Standby Letter of Credit Commitment, as the case may be.

SECTION 4.11 Replacement of Lenders. If (a) the Administrative Borrower receives notice from any Lender requesting increased costs or additional amounts under Sections 4.3, 4.5 or 4.6 not being requested generally by other Lenders, (b) any Lender is affected in the manner described in Section 4.1, or (c) a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, in each case, the Borrowers shall have the right, so long as no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and unless, in the case of clause (a), such Lender has removed or cured the conditions which resulted in the obligation to pay such increased costs or additional amounts or agreed to waive and otherwise forego any right it may have to any payments provided for under Sections 4.3, 4.5 or 4.6 in respect of such conditions, to replace in its entirety such Lender (the “Replaced Lender”), upon prior written notice to the Agent and such Replaced Lender, with one or more Eligible Assignees designated by Winn-Dixie and acceptable to the Agent, such acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld, that agree to accept all of the rights and obligations of the Replaced Lender (each a “Replacement Lender”); provided, however, that, at the time of any replacement pursuant to this Section 4.11, the Replaced Lender and the Replacement Lenders shall enter into (and each Replaced Lender hereby unconditionally agreeing to enter into) one or more Lender Assignment Agreement(s) (appropriately completed), pursuant to which (i) the Replacement Lender shall acquire all

of the Commitments and outstanding Revolving Loans of the Replaced Lender and, in connection therewith, shall pay (x) to the Replaced Lender in respect thereof an amount equal to the sum of (a) an amount equal to the principal of, and all accrued but unpaid interest on, all outstanding Loans of the Replaced Lender and (b) an amount equal to all accrued but theretofore unpaid fees owing to the Replaced Lender pursuant to Sections 3.3.1 and 3.3.3, and (y) to the Issuer, an amount equal to any portion of the Replaced Lender’s funding of an unpaid drawing under a Letter of Credit as to which the Replaced Lender is then in default; and (ii) the Borrowers shall pay to the Replaced Lender any other amounts payable to the Replaced Lender under this Agreement (including amounts payable under Sections 4.1, 4.3, 4.4, 4.5 and 4.6 which have accrued to the date of such replacement). Upon the execution of the Lender Assignment Agreement(s), the payment of the amounts referred to in the preceding sentence and, if so requested by the Replacement Lenders, delivery to the Replacement Lenders of the applicable Note(s) executed by the Borrower, the Replacement Lenders shall automatically become Lenders hereunder and the Replaced Lender shall cease to constitute a Lender hereunder, except with respect to indemnification provisions under this Agreement, which shall survive as to such Replaced Lender. It is understood and agreed that if any Replaced Lender shall fail to enter into a Lender Assignment Agreement in accordance with the foregoing, it shall be deemed to have entered into such a Lender Assignment Agreement.

THE AGENT

SECTION 9.1 Actions. Each Lender hereby appoints Wachovia Bank as its administrative agent and as its collateral monitoring agent under and for purposes of each Loan Document. Each Lender authorizes the Agent to act on behalf of such Lender under each Loan Document and, in the absence of other written instructions from the Required Lenders received from time to time by the Agent (with respect to which the Agent agrees that it will comply, except as otherwise provided in this Section or as otherwise advised by counsel in order to avoid contravention of applicable law), to exercise such powers hereunder and thereunder as are specifically delegated to or required of the Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as may be incidental thereto. Each Lender hereby indemnifies (which indemnity shall survive any termination of this Agreement) the Agent and the Arranger, pro rata according to such Lender’s proportionate Total Exposure Amount, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, claims, costs or expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against, the Agent, or the Arranger, as the case may be, or in any way relating to or arising out of any Loan Document (including attorneys’ fees and expenditures to protect or preserve any collateral), and as to which the Agent or the Arranger, as the case may be, is not reimbursed by the Borrower; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, claims, costs or expenses which (a) in the case of liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, claims, costs or expenses claimed by the Agent, are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final proceeding to have resulted from the Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, and (b) in the case of liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, claims, costs or expenses claimed by the Arranger are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final proceeding to have resulted solely from the Arranger’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Agent shall not be required to take any action under any Loan Document, or to prosecute or defend any suit in respect of any Loan Document, unless it is indemnified hereunder to its satisfaction. If any indemnity in favor of the Agent shall be or become, in the Agent’s determination, inadequate, the Agent may call for additional indemnification from the Lenders and cease to do the acts indemnified against hereunder until such additional indemnity is given.

SECTION 9.2 Funding Reliance, etc. Unless the Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender by 3:00 p.m. (New York time) on the Business Day prior to a Borrowing that such Lender will not make available the amount which would constitute its Percentage of such Borrowing on the date specified therefor, the Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Agent and, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to any Borrower a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have made such amount available to the Agent, such Lender and such Borrower severally agree to repay the Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date the Agent made such amount available to such Borrower to the date such amount is repaid to the Agent, at the interest rate applicable at the time to Loans comprising such Borrowing (in the case of a Borrower) and (in the case of a Lender), at the Federal Funds Rate (for the first two Business Days after which such amount has not been repaid), and thereafter at the interest rate applicable to Loans comprising such Borrowing.

SECTION 9.3 Exculpation. None of the Agent or the Arranger or any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable to any Secured Party for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it under any Loan Document, or in connection herewith or therewith, except for its

102

own willful misconduct or gross negligence, nor responsible for any recitals or warranties herein or therein, nor for the effectiveness, enforceability, validity or due execution of any Loan Document, nor for the creation, perfection or priority of any Liens purported to be created by any of the Loan Documents, or the validity, genuineness, enforceability, existence, value or sufficiency of any collateral security, nor to make any inquiry respecting the performance by any Obligor of its Obligations. Any such inquiry which may be made by the Agent shall not obligate it to make any further inquiry or to take any action. The Agent shall be entitled to rely upon advice of counsel concerning legal matters and upon any notice, consent, certificate, statement or writing which Agent believes to be genuine and to have been presented by a proper Person. The Agent may discharge its responsibilities and actions hereunder and under the Loan Documents through affiliates and/or sub-agents selected by them.

SECTION 9.4 Successor. Agent may resign as such at any time upon at least 30 days’ prior notice to the Administrative Borrower and all Lenders. If the Agent at any time shall resign, the Required Lenders may appoint another Lender as a successor Agent, which shall thereupon become the Agent hereunder. If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Agent’s giving notice of resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be one of the Lenders or a commercial banking institution organized under the laws of the United States (or any State thereof) or a United States branch or agency of a commercial banking institution, and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $250,000,000; provided, however, that if, such retiring Agent is unable to find a commercial banking institution which is willing to accept such appointment and which meets the qualifications set forth in above, the retiring Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall be entitled to receive from the retiring Agent such documents of transfer and assignment as such successor Agent may reasonably request, and shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents. After any retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder as the Agent, the provisions of this Article shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Agent under the Loan Documents, and Section 10.3 and Section 10.4 shall continue to inure to its benefit.

SECTION 9.5 Loans by Wachovia Bank. Wachovia Bank shall have the same rights and powers with respect to (a) the Credit Extensions made by it or any of its Affiliates, and (b) the Notes held by it or any of its Affiliates as any other Lender and may exercise the same as if it were not the Agent. Wachovia Bank and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of business with any Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of any Borrower as if Wachovia Bank were not the Agent hereunder or the Swing Line Lender hereunder.

SECTION 9.6 Credit Decisions. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently of the Agent and each other Lender, and based on such Lender’s review of the financial information of the Borrowers, the Loan Documents (the terms and provisions of which being satisfactory to such Lender) and such other documents, information and investigations as such Lender has deemed appropriate, made its own credit decision to extend its Commitments. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently of the Agent and each other Lender, and based on such other documents, information and investigations as it shall deem appropriate at any time, continue to make its own credit decisions as to exercising or not exercising from time to time any rights and privileges available to it under the Loan Documents.

SECTION 9.7 Copies, etc. The Agent shall give prompt notice to each Lender of each notice or request given to the Agent by a Borrower pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents for distribution to

103

the Lenders (unless concurrently delivered to the Lenders by the Borrower). Agent will distribute to each Lender each document or instrument received by Agent for the account of such Lender and copies of all other communications received by Agent from a Borrower for distribution to the Lenders by Agent to the extent required to be so distributed in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents.

SECTION 9.8 Reliance by Agents. Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any certification, notice or other communication (including any thereof by telephone, telecopy, telegram or cable) believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by or on behalf of the proper Person, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by Agent. As to any matters not expressly provided for by the Loan Documents, Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder or thereunder in accordance with instructions given by the Required Lenders or all of the Lenders as is required in such circumstance, and such instructions of such Lenders and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all Secured Parties. For purposes of applying amounts in accordance with this Section, Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any Secured Party that has entered into a Rate Protection Agreement with any Obligor for a determination (which such Secured Party agrees to provide or cause to be provided upon request of either Agent) of the outstanding Obligations owed to such Secured Party under any Rate Protection Agreement. Unless it has actual knowledge evidenced by way of written notice from any such Secured Party and Winn-Dixie to the contrary, Agent, in acting in such capacity under the Loan Documents, shall be entitled to assume that no Rate Protection Agreements or Obligations in respect thereof are in existence or outstanding between any Secured Party and any Obligor.

SECTION 9.9 Defaults. Neither Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of a Default unless Agent has received a written notice from a Lender or Winn-Dixie specifying such Default and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default”. In the event that the Agent receives such a notice of the occurrence of a Default, the Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. The Agent shall (subject to Section 10.1) take such action with respect to such Default as shall be directed by the Required Lenders; provided that, unless and until the Agent shall have received such directions, the Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interest of the Lenders except to the extent that this Agreement expressly requires that such action be taken, or not be taken, only with the consent or upon the authorization of the Required Lenders or all Lenders.

SECTION 9.10 Other Agent Designations. Agent may at any time and from time to time determine that a Lender may, in addition, be a “Co-Agent”, “Syndication Agent”, “Documentation Agent” or similar designation hereunder and enter into an agreement with such Lender to have it so identified for purposes of this Agreement. Any such designation shall be effective upon written notice by Agent to Administrative Borrower of any such designation. Any Lender that is so designated as a Co-Agent, Syndication Agent, Documentation Agent or such similar designation by Agent shall have no right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents other than those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, the Lenders so identified shall not have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender and no Lender shall be deemed to have relied, nor shall any Lender rely, on a Lender so identified as a Co-Agent, Syndication Agent, Documentation Agent or such similar designation in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder.

SECTION 9.11 Field Audit, Examination Reports and other Information. By signing this Agreement, each Lender:

(a) is deemed to have requested that the Agent furnish such Lender, promptly after it becomes available, a copy of each field audit or examination report and report with respect to the

104

Borrowing Base prepared or received by the Agent (each field audit or examination report and report with respect to the borrowing base being referred to herein as a “Report” and collectively, “Reports”), appraisal and financial statements;

(b) expressly agrees and acknowledges that the Agent (i) does not make any representation or warranty as to the accuracy of any Report, appraisal or financial statement or (ii) shall not be liable for any information contained in any Report, appraisal or financial statement;

(c) expressly agrees and acknowledges that the Reports are not comprehensive audits or examinations, that the Agent or any other party performing any audit or examination will inspect only specific information regarding the Borrowers and Guarantors and will rely significantly upon the Borrowers’ and Guarantors’ books and records, as well as on representations of the Borrowers’ and Guarantors’ personnel; and

(d) agrees to keep all Reports confidential and strictly for its internal use in accordance with customary banking practices, and not to distribute or use any Report in any other manner.

(b) upon notice to Winn-Dixie and the Agent, upon the Agent’s acknowledgment on a Lender Assignment Agreement, may assign and delegate to any of its Affiliates, any Related Fund or to any other Lender;

(c) notice of such assignment and delegation, together with (i) payment instructions, (ii) the Internal Revenue Service forms or other statements contemplated or required to be delivered pursuant to Section 4.6, if applicable, and (iii) addresses and related information with respect to such Assignee Lender, shall have been delivered to Winn-Dixie and the Agent by such Assignor Lender and such Assignee Lender;

(d) such Assignee Lender shall have executed and delivered to the Administrative Borrower and the Agent a Lender Assignment Agreement, accepted by the Agent; and

(e) the processing fees described below shall have been paid.

Within five Business Days after its receipt of notice that the Agent has received and accepted an executed Lender Assignment Agreement (and if requested by the Assignee Lender), but subject to clause (c), each Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Agent (for delivery to the relevant Assignee Lender) a new Note evidencing such Assignee Lender’s assigned Loans and Commitments and, if the Assignor Lender has retained Loans and Commitments hereunder (and if requested by such Lender), a replacement Note in the principal amount of the Loans and Commitments retained by the Assignor Lender hereunder (such Note to be in exchange for, but not in payment of, the Note then held by such Assignor Lender). Each such Note shall be dated the date of the predecessor Note. The Assignor Lender shall mark each predecessor Note “exchanged” and deliver each of them to the applicable Borrower.

Such Assignor Lender or such Assignee Lender must also pay a processing fee in the amount of $3,500 to the Agent upon delivery of any Lender Assignment Agreement; provided that no such processing fee shall be required in connection with any such assignment and delegation (i) by a Lender to its Affiliate or to a Related Fund, (ii) by a Lender to a Federal Reserve Bank (or, if such Lender is an investment fund, to the trustee under the indenture to which such fund is a party in support of its obligations to such trustee) or (iii) if the non-payment of the processing fee is otherwise consented to in writing by the Agent. Notwithstanding any other term of this Section, the agreement of Wachovia Bank to provide the Swing Line Loan Commitment shall not impair or otherwise restrict in any manner the ability of Wachovia Bank to make any assignment of its Loans or Commitments, it being understood and agreed that Wachovia Bank may terminate its Swing Line Loan Commitment, either in whole or in part, in connection with the making of any assignment. Any attempted assignment and delegation not made in accordance with this Section shall be null and void. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above, any Lender may (without requesting the consent of any Borrower or the Agent) pledge its Loans (a) to a Federal Reserve Bank in support of borrowings made by such Lender from such Federal Reserve Bank, or (b) in the case of any Lender which is a fund that invests in loans, to any trustee or any other representative of holders of obligations owed or securities issued by such Lender as security for such obligations or securities; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall (x) release any Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or (y) substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(f) In the event that S&P or Moody’s, shall, after the date that any Person becomes a Lender, downgrade the long-term certificate of deposit ratings of such Lender, and the resulting ratings shall be below BBB- or Baa3, respectively, or the equivalent, then Winn-Dixie, the Swing Line Lender and each Issuer shall each have the right, but not the obligation, upon notice to such Lender and the Agent, to replace such Lender with a financial institution (a “Substitute Lender”) acceptable to Winn-Dixie and the Agent (such consents not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided that no such consent shall be required if the Substitute Lender is an existing Lender), and upon any such downgrading of any Lender’s long-term certificate of deposit rating, each such Lender hereby agrees to transfer and assign (in accordance with Section 10.11.1) all of its Commitments and other rights and obligations under the Loan Documents (including Reimbursement Obligations) to such Substitute Lender; provided, however, that (i) such assignment shall be without recourse, representation or warranty (other than that such Lender owns the Commitments, Loans and Notes being assigned, free and clear of any Liens) and (ii) the purchase price paid by the Substitute Lender shall be in the amount of such Lender’s Loans and its Percentage of outstanding Reimbursement Obligations, together with all accrued and unpaid interest and fees in respect thereof, plus all other amounts (other than the amounts (if any) demanded and unreimbursed under Sections 4.2, 4.3, 4.5 and 4.6, which shall be paid by the Borrowers), owing to such Lender hereunder. Upon any such termination or assignment, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of any provisions of this Agreement which by their terms survive the termination of this Agreement.

SECTION 10.11.2 Participations. Any Lender may, without the consent of or notice to any Borrower or the Agent, sell to one or more commercial banks or other Persons (each of such commercial banks and other Persons being herein called a “Participant”) participating interests in any of the Loans, Commitments, or other interests of such Lender hereunder; provided, however, that

(a) no participation contemplated in this Section shall relieve such Lender from its Commitments or its other obligations under any Loan Document;

(b) such Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance of its Commitments and such other obligations;

111

(c) each Obligor and the Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under each Loan Document;

(d) no Participant, unless such Participant is an Affiliate of such Lender or is itself a Lender, shall be entitled to require such Lender to take or refrain from taking any action under any Loan Document, except that such Lender may agree with any Participant that such Lender will not, without such Participant’s consent, take any actions of the type described in clauses (a), (b), (c) or (f) of Section 10.1 with respect to Obligations participated in by such Participant;

(e) no Borrower shall be required to pay any amount under this Agreement that is greater than the amount which it would have been required to pay had no participating interest been sold;

(f) such Lender shall, as agent of the Borrowers solely for the purpose of this Section, record in book entries maintained by such Lender the name of its Participants and the amount such Participants are entitled to receive in respect of any participating interests sold pursuant to this Section; and

(g) each participation permitted pursuant to this Section shall be in a minimum aggregate amount of $5,000,000 (or, if less, the entire remaining amount of such Lender’s Loans, Subfacility Letter of Credit Outstandings, Standby Letter of Credit Outstandings and Commitments).

Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that each Participant, for purposes of Sections 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, 4.8, 4.9, 7.1.1, 10.3 and 10.4, shall be considered a Lender. Each Participant shall only be indemnified for increased costs pursuant to Section 4.3, 4.5 or 4.6 if and to the extent that the Lender which sold such participating interest to such Participant concurrently is entitled to make, and does make, a claim on the Borrowers for such increased costs. Any Lender that sells a participating interest in any Loan, Commitment or other interest to a Participant under this Section shall (x) as agent for the Borrowers solely for purposes of this Section 10.11.2, record in book entries maintained by such Lender, the name and amount of the participating interest of each Participant entitled to receive payments in respect of such participating interest, and (y) indemnify and hold harmless the Borrowers and the Agent from and against any Taxes, penalties, interest or other costs or losses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred or payable by any Borrower or the Agent as a result of the failure of any Borrower or the Agent to comply with its obligations to deduct or withhold any Taxes from any payments made pursuant to this Agreement to such Lender or the Agent, as the case may be, which Taxes would not have been incurred or payable if such Participant had been a Non-U.S. Lender that was entitled to deliver to any Borrower, the Agent or such Lender, and did in fact so deliver, a duly completed and valid Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI (or applicable successor form) entitling such Participant to receive payments under this Agreement without deduction or withholding of any United States federal taxes.

SECTION 10.12 Other Transactions. Nothing contained herein shall preclude the Agent, any Issuer or any other Lender from engaging in any transaction, in addition to those contemplated by the Loan Documents, with any Borrower or any of its Affiliates in which such Borrower or such Affiliate is not restricted hereby from engaging with any other Person.

(a) Each Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints and constitutes the Administrative Borrower as its agent to request and receive Loans and Letters of Credit pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents from the Agent or any Lender in the name or on behalf of such Borrower. The Agent and Lenders may disburse the Loans to such bank account of the Administrative Borrower or a Borrower or otherwise make such Loans to a Borrower and provide such Letters of Credit to a Borrower as the Administrative Borrower may designate or direct, without notice to any other Borrower or Obligor. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Agent may at any time and from time to time require that Loans to or for the account of any Borrower be disbursed directly to an operating account of such Borrower.

(b) The Administrative Borrower hereby accepts the appointment by the other Borrowers to act as the agent of the Borrowers pursuant to this Section 10.17. The Administrative Borrower shall ensure that the disbursement of any Loans to each Borrower requested by or paid to or for the account of, or the issuance of any Letters of Credit for a Borrower or Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder, shall be paid to or for the account of such Borrower or Subsidiary Guarantor.

(c) Each Borrower and other Guarantor hereby irrevocably appoints and constitutes the Administrative Borrower as its agent to receive statements on account and all other notices from the Agent and Lenders with respect to the Obligations or otherwise under or in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(d) Any notice, election, representation, warranty, agreement or undertaking by or on behalf of any other Borrower or any Guarantor by the Administrative Borrower shall be deemed for all purposes to have been made by such Borrower or Guarantor, as the case may be, and shall be binding upon and enforceable against such Borrower or Guarantor to the same extent as if made directly by such Borrower or Guarantor.

(e) No purported termination of the appointment of the Administrative Borrower as agent as aforesaid shall be effective, except after ten (10) days’ prior written notice to the Agent.

SECTION 10.18 Waiver of Counterclaims, etc.. Each Borrower and Guarantor waives (a) all rights to interpose any claims, deductions, setoffs or counterclaims of any nature (other than compulsory counterclaims) in any action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement, the Obligations, the Collateral or any matter arising therefrom or relating hereto or thereto and (b) any rights to punitive or consequential damages.

SECTION 10.19 Patriot Act Notice, etc. Each Lender and the Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any other party) hereby notifies the Borrowers that, pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Borrower, which information includes the names and addresses and other information that will allow such Lender or the Agent, as applicable, to identify each Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act. The Borrowers will, and will cause each of their Subsidiaries to, provide, to the extent commercially reasonable or required by applicable law or regulation, such information and take such actions as are reasonably requested by the Agent or any Lenders in order to assist the Agent and the Lenders in maintaining compliance with the Patriot Act.

SECTION 10.20 Additional Loans. The Agent and the Issuer shall not make any Loans or issue any Letters of Credit on behalf of the Lenders intentionally and with actual knowledge that such Loans or

115

Letters of Credit would cause the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans and Total Letter of Credit Outstandings to exceed the Borrowing Base, without the prior consent of all Lenders, except that, the Agent may make such additional Loans or the Issuer may issue such additional Letters of Credit on behalf of Lenders, intentionally and with actual knowledge that such Loans or Letters of Credit will cause the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans and Total Letter of Credit Outstandings to exceed the Borrowing Base, as the Agent may deem necessary or advisable in its discretion, provided, that: (a) the total principal amount of the additional Loans or additional Letters of Credit which the Agent or the Issuer may make or provide after obtaining such actual knowledge that the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans and Total Letter of Credit Outstandings equal or exceed the Borrowing Base, plus the amount of Special Agent Advances made pursuant to Section 2.1.1 hereof then outstanding, shall not exceed the aggregate amount equal to five (5%) percent of the Borrowing Base and shall not cause the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans and Total Letter of Credit Outstandings to exceed the Total Commitment Amount, (b) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans made and Subfacility Letters of Credit issued in reliance upon this Section 10.20 may make or provide plus the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans, Swing Line Loans and Subfacility Letter of Credit Outstandings outstanding with respect to all the Borrowers at any one time shall not exceed the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount and (c) no such additional Loan or Letter of Credit shall be outstanding more than ninety (90) days after the date such additional Loan or Letter of Credit is made or issued (as the case may be), except as the Required Lenders may otherwise agree. Each Lender shall be obligated to pay the Agent the amount of its Percentage of any such additional Loans or Letters of Credit.

Without limitation, notwithstanding any such order, financing, extension, incurrence, dismissal, conversion, act or omission:

(i) except (A) for the amounts included in the Carve-Out, including amounts payable to professional persons and costs of administration which have been or may be incurred in the Chapter 11 Cases or any conversion of the same or in any other proceedings related thereto to the extent of the Carve-Out, and (B) valid, perfected and nonavoidable liens in existence at the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases or valid liens in existence at the time of such commencement that are permitted to be perfected subsequent to such commencement pursuant to Section 546(b) of the Bankruptcy Code;

(ii) the liens and security interests in favor of the Agent, for itself and the benefit of the Lenders, set forth herein, in the Security Documents and in the other Loan Documents, shall constitute valid and perfected first priority liens and security interests and shall be prior to all other liens and interests, now existing or hereafter arising, in favor of any other creditor or any other Person whatever (other than liens, security interests and encumbrances permitted hereunder to the extent that such liens, security interests and encumbrances have priority under applicable law and other than the Carve-Out), and

116

(iii) the security interests and liens upon the Collateral in favor of the Agent as set forth in this Agreement, the Security Documents and in the other Loan Documents shall constitute valid and perfected first priority security interests, without the necessity that the Agent file financing statements or otherwise perfect its liens and security interests in the Collateral under applicable nonbankruptcy law.

(c) The security interests of the Agent hereunder and under the Security Documents and the other Loan Documents shall be subordinate to the payment of the following: (i) (x) allowed and unpaid fees pursuant to Section 1930 of Title 28 of the United States Code and to the Clerk of the Bankruptcy Court and any fees payable to the Office of the United States Trustee, and (y) the allowed reasonable fees and expenses of any Chapter 7 Trustee appointed for any Borrower’s or Guarantor’s Chapter 7 case; provided, that such allowed fees and expenses shall not exceed $50,000 in the aggregate for purposes of constituting a part of the Carve Out, and (ii) allowed and unpaid claims of professionals whose retention is approved by the Bankruptcy Court during the Chapter 11 Cases pursuant to Sections 327 and 1103 of the Bankruptcy Code for unpaid fees and expenses that are approved by order of the Bankruptcy Court pursuant to Sections 326, 328, 330, or 331 of the Bankruptcy Code after a Default Point in the aggregate amount not to exceed $12,000,000, and the Pre-Petition Lender Carve Out (such amounts under clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section 10.21(c) being the “Carve-Out); provided, that, (A) the Carve-Out shall not include, apply to, or be available for any fees or expenses incurred by any party, including any Borrower or Guarantor, any committee or any professional, in connection with (1) the initiation or prosecution of any claims or defenses against the Agent or any Lender, or preventing, hindering, or delaying the assertion of enforcement of any lien, claim, right or security interest or realization upon any Collateral by the Agent or any Lender, (2) a request to use cash collateral (as such term is defined in Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code) without the prior written consent of the Agent and the Lenders, (3) a request, without the prior written consent of the Agent and the Lenders, for authorization to obtain debtor-in-possession financing or other financial accommodations pursuant to Section 364(c) or (d) of the Bankruptcy Code that does not indefeasibly repay in full in cash the Obligations on terms and conditions acceptable to the Agent and the Lenders, or (4) any act which has the effect of materially or adversely modifying or compromising the rights and remedies of the Agent and the Lenders as set forth herein, in the other Loan Documents and in the Financing Orders, or which results in the occurrence of an Event of Default, (B) so long as no Event of Default shall exist or have occurred and be continuing, the Borrowers and the Guarantors shall be permitted to pay compensation and reimbursement of expenses allowed and payable under 11 U.S.C. Section 330 and 11 U.S.C. Section 331, as the same may be due and payable and any payments made to any professionals in respect of Allowed Professional Fees (as defined in the Financing Orders) at any time prior to the occurrence of Default Point shall not reduce the amount of the Carve-Out, and (C) in the event of any inconsistency in the definition of Carve-Out between the provisions of this Agreement and any Financing Order, such Financing Order shall govern.

117

(b) In the event that Agent, any Lender or Issuer receives a request or demand to disclose any confidential information pursuant to any subpoena or court order, Agent or such Lender or Issuer, as the case may be, agrees (i) to the extent permitted by applicable law or if permitted by applicable law, to the extent Agent or such Lender or Issuer determines in good faith that it will not create any risk of liability to Agent or such Lender or Issuer, Agent or such Lender or Issuer will promptly notify Administrative Borrower of such request so that Administrative Borrower may seek a protective order or other appropriate relief or remedy and (ii) if disclosure of such information is required, disclose such information and, subject to reimbursement by Borrowers of Agent’s or such Lender’s or Issuer’s expenses, cooperate with Administrative Borrower in the reasonable efforts to obtain an order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such portion of the disclosed information which Administrative Borrower so designates, to the extent permitted by applicable law or if permitted by applicable law, to the extent Agent or such Lender or Issuer determines in good faith that it will not create any risk of liability to Agent or such Lender or Issuer.

(c) In no event shall this Section 10.22 or any other provision of this Agreement, any of the other Financing Agreements or applicable law be deemed: (i) to apply to or restrict disclosure of information that has been or is made public by any Borrower, Guarantor or any third party or otherwise becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure in violation hereof, (ii) to apply to or restrict disclosure of information that was or becomes available to Agent, any Lender (or any Affiliate of any Lender) or Issuer on a non-confidential basis from a person other than a Borrower or Guarantor, (iii) to require Agent, any Lender or Issuer to return any materials furnished by a Borrower or Guarantor to Agent, a Lender or Issuer or prevent Agent, a Lender or Issuer from responding to routine informational requests in accordance with the Code of Ethics for the Exchange of Credit Information promulgated by The Robert Morris Associates or other applicable industry standards relating to the exchange of credit information.
