2.1 Revolving Facility. Subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Lenders severally agree to make available a revolving credit facility of up to $200,000,000 (the “Revolving Facility”) for the Borrower’s use from time to time during the term of this Agreement. The Revolving Facility shall be composed of a revolving line of credit consisting of Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit up to the Borrowing Base in effect from time to time, as described in Section 2.2 and Section 2.4.

2.2 Revolving Loans. (a) Amounts. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Article 10, each Lender severally, but not jointly, agrees, upon the Borrower’s request from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Loan Availability Date to the Termination Date, to make revolving loans (the “Revolving Loans”) to the Borrower in amounts not to exceed (except for the Bank with respect to Non-Ratable Loans or for the Agent with respect to Agent Advances) such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Borrowing Base. The Lenders, however, in their unanimous discretion, may elect to make Revolving Loans or issue or arrange to have issued, or participate (as provided for in Section 2.4(f)) in the credit support or enhancement provided through the Agent to the Letter of Credit Issuer in excess of the Availability on one or more occasions, but if they do so, neither the Agent nor the Lenders shall be deemed thereby to have changed the limits of the Borrowing Base or to be obligated to exceed such limits on any other occasion. If the Aggregate Revolver Outstandings exceed the Borrowing Base, the Lenders may refuse to make or otherwise restrict the making of Revolving Loans as the Lenders determine until such excess has been eliminated, subject to the Agent’s authority, in its sole discretion, to make Agent Advances pursuant to the terms of Section 2.2(i).

(b) Procedure for Borrowing. (i) Each Borrowing shall be made upon the Borrower’s irrevocable written notice delivered to the Agent in the form of a notice of borrowing in the form of Exhibit B (“Notice of Borrowing”) together with a Borrowing Base Certificate reflecting sufficient Availability, (which must be received by the Agent prior to 11:00 a.m. (Pasadena, California time) (A) three Business Days prior to the requested Funding Date, in the case of LIBOR Rate Loans and (B) no later than 11:00 a.m. (Pasadena, California time) on the requested Funding Date, in the case of Base Rate Loans, specifying:

(2) the amount of the Borrowing, which, in the case of LIBOR Rate Loans, shall be in an amount of $5,000,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof;

(4) whether the Revolving Loans requested are to be Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Rate Loans; and

(5) the duration of the Interest Period if the requested Revolving Loans are to be LIBOR Rate Loans. If the Notice of Borrowing fails to specify the duration of the Interest Period for any Borrowing comprised of LIBOR Rate Loans, such Interest Period shall be one month;

provided, however, that with respect to the Borrowing, if any, to be made on the Loan Availability Date, such Borrowing will consist of Base Rate Loans only.

(ii) With respect to any request for Base Rate Loans, in lieu of delivering the above-described Notice of Borrowing the Borrower may give the Agent telephonic notice of such request by the required time, with such telephonic notice to be confirmed in writing within 24 hours of the giving of such notice, but the Agent shall be entitled to rely on the telephonic notice in making such Revolving Loans.

(iii) After giving effect to any Borrowing of LIBOR Rate Loans, there may not be more than five different Interest Periods in effect hereunder.

(c) Reliance upon Authority. On or prior to the Closing Date and thereafter prior to any change with respect to any of the information contained in the following clauses (i) and (ii), the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent a writing setting forth (i) the deposit account of the Borrower to which the Agent is authorized to transfer the proceeds of the Revolving Loans requested pursuant to this Section 2.2, and (ii) the names of the individuals authorized to request Revolving Loans on behalf of the Borrower, and shall provide the Agent with a specimen signature of each such individual. The Agent shall be entitled to rely conclusively on such individual’s authority to request Revolving Loans on behalf of the Borrower, the proceeds of which are to be transferred to any of the accounts specified by the Borrower pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, until the Agent receives written notice to the contrary. The Agent shall have no duty to verify the identity of any individual representing him or herself as one of the officers authorized by the Borrower to make such requests on its behalf.

(d) No Liability. The Agent shall not incur any liability to the Borrower as a result of acting upon any notice referred to in Sections 2.2(b) and (c), which notice the Agent believes in good faith to have been given by an officer duly authorized by the Borrower to request Revolving Loans on its behalf or for otherwise acting in good faith under this Section 2.2, and the crediting of Revolving Loans to the Borrower’s deposit account, or transmittal to

such Person as the Borrower shall direct, shall conclusively establish the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Revolving Loans as provided herein.

(e) Notice Irrevocable. Any Notice of Borrowing (or telephonic notice in lieu thereof) made pursuant to Section 2.2(b) shall be irrevocable and the Borrower shall be bound to borrow the funds requested therein in accordance therewith.

(f) Agent’s Election. Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Borrowing (or telephonic notice in lieu thereof) pursuant to Section 2.2(b), the Agent shall elect, in its discretion, (i) to have the terms of Section 2.2(g) apply to such requested Borrowing, or (ii) to request the Bank to make a Non-Ratable Loan pursuant to the terms of Section 2.2(h) in the amount of the requested Borrowing; provided, however, that if the Bank declines in its sole discretion to make a Non-Ratable Loan pursuant to Section 2.2(h), the Agent shall elect to have the terms of Section 2.2(g) apply to such requested Borrowing.

(i) In the event that the Agent shall elect to have the terms of this Section 2.2(g) apply to a requested Borrowing as described in Section 2.2(f), then promptly after receipt of a Notice of Borrowing or telephonic notice pursuant to Section 2.2(b), the Agent shall notify the Lenders by telecopy, telephone or other similar form of transmission, of the requested Borrowing. Each Lender shall make the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the requested Borrowing available to the Agent in immediately available funds, to such account of the Agent as the Agent may designate, not later than 12:00 noon (Pasadena, California time) on the Funding Date applicable thereto. After the Agent’s receipt of the proceeds of such Revolving Loans, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article 10, the Agent shall make the proceeds of such Revolving Loans available to the Borrower on the applicable Funding Date by transferring same day funds equal to the proceeds of such Revolving Loans received by the Agent to the deposit account of the Borrower designated in writing by the Borrower and acceptable to the Agent; provided, however, that the amount of Revolving Loans so made on any date shall in no event exceed the Availability on such date, subject to the provisions of subsection 2.2(a).

(ii) Unless the Agent receives notice from a Lender on or prior to the Loan Availability Date or, with respect to any Borrowing after the Loan Availability Date, at least one Business Day prior to the date of such Borrowing, that such Lender will not make available as and when required hereunder to the Agent for the account of the Borrower the amount of that Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Borrowing, the Agent may assume that each Lender has made such amount available to the Agent in immediately

available funds on the Funding Date and the Agent may (but shall not be so required), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent any Lender shall not have made its full amount available to the Agent in immediately available funds and the Agent in such circumstances has made available to the Borrower such amount, that Lender shall on the Business Day following such Funding Date make such amount available to the Agent, together with interest at the Federal Funds Rate for each day during such period. A notice by the Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to amounts owing under this subsection shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. If such amount is so made available, such payment to the Agent shall constitute such Lender’s Revolving Loan for all purposes of this Agreement. If such amount is not made available to the Agent on the Business Day following the Funding Date, the Agent will notify the Borrower of such failure to fund and, upon demand by the Agent, the Borrower shall pay such amount to the Agent for the Agent’s account, together with interest thereon for each day elapsed since the date of such Borrowing, at a rate per annum equal to the Interest Rate applicable at the time to the Revolving Loans comprising such Borrowing. The failure of any Lender to make any Revolving Loan on any Funding Date (any such Lender, prior to the cure of such failure, being hereinafter referred to as a “Defaulting Lender”) shall not relieve any other Lender of any obligation hereunder to make a Revolving Loan on such Funding Date, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Revolving Loan to be made by such other Lender on any Funding Date.

(iii) The Agent shall not be obligated to transfer to a Defaulting Lender any payments made by Borrower to the Agent for the Defaulting Lender’s benefit; nor shall a Defaulting Lender be entitled to the sharing of any payments hereunder. Amounts payable to a Defaulting Lender shall instead be paid to or retained by the Agent. The Agent may hold and, in its reasonable discretion, re-lend to Borrower the amount of all such payments received or retained by it for the account of such Defaulting Lender. Any amounts so re-lent to the Borrower shall bear interest based on the Base Rate or the LIBOR Rate, at the election of the Borrower, and for all other purposes of this Agreement shall be treated as if they were Revolving Loans, provided, however, that for purposes of voting or consenting to matters with respect to the Loan Documents and determining Pro Rata Shares, such Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not to be a “Lender”. Until a Defaulting Lender cures its failure to fund its Pro Rata Share of any Borrowing (A) such Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to

any portion of the Unused Line Fee and (B) the Unused Line Fee shall accrue in favor of the Lenders which have funded their respective Pro Rata Shares of such requested Borrowing and shall be allocated among such performing Lenders ratably based upon their relative Commitments. This Section shall remain effective with respect to such Lender until such time as the Defaulting Lender shall no longer be in default of any of its obligations under this Agreement. The terms of this Section shall not be construed to increase or otherwise affect the Commitment of any Lender, or relieve or excuse the performance by the Borrower of its duties and obligations hereunder.

(i) In the event the Agent shall elect, with the consent of the Bank, to have the terms of this Section 2.2(h) apply to a requested Borrowing as described in Section 2.2(f), the Bank shall make a Revolving Loan in the amount of such Borrowing (any such Revolving Loan made solely by the Bank pursuant to this Section 2.2(h) being referred to as a “Non-Ratable Loan” and such Revolving Loans being referred to collectively as “Non-Ratable Loans”) available to the Borrower on the Funding Date applicable thereto by transferring same day funds to a deposit account of the Borrower designated in writing by the Borrower and acceptable to the Agent. Each Non-Ratable Loan is a Revolving Loan hereunder and shall be subject to all the terms and conditions applicable to other Revolving Loans except that all payments thereon shall be payable to the Bank solely for its own account (and for the account of the holder of any participation interest with respect to such Revolving Loan). The Agent shall not request the Bank to make any Non-Ratable Loan if (A) the Agent shall have received written notice from any Lender that one or more of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article 10 will not be satisfied on the requested Funding Date for the applicable Borrowing, or (B) the requested Borrowing would exceed the Availability on such Funding Date. The Bank shall not otherwise be required to determine whether the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article 10 have been satisfied or the requested Borrowing would exceed the Availability on the Funding Date applicable thereto prior to making, in its sole discretion, any Non-Ratable Loan.

(ii) The Non-Ratable Loans shall be secured by the Agent’s Liens in and to the Collateral, shall constitute Revolving Loans and Obligations hereunder, and shall bear interest at the rate applicable to the Revolving Loans from time to time.

(i) Subject to the limitations set forth in the provisos contained in this Section 2.2(i), the Agent is hereby authorized by the Borrower and the Lenders, from time to time in the Agent’s sole discretion, (A) after the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default, or (B) at any time that any of the other applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article 10 have not been satisfied, to make Base Rate Loans to the Borrower on behalf of the Lenders which the Agent, in its reasonable business judgment, deems necessary or desirable (1) to preserve or protect the Collateral, or any portion thereof, (2) to enhance the likelihood of, or maximize the amount of, repayment of the Loans and other Obligations, or (3) to pay any other amount chargeable to the Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including costs, fees and expenses as described in Section 15.7 (any of the advances described in this Section 2.2(i) being hereinafter referred to as “Agent Advances”); provided, that the Required Lenders may at any time revoke the Agent’s authorization contained in this Section 2.2(i) to make Agent Advances, any such revocation to be in writing and to become effective prospectively upon the Agent’s receipt thereof; and provided further that, subject to the final proviso of Section 13.2, the Agent shall not intentionally make Agent Advances which would cause the Aggregate Revolver Outstandings to exceed the Borrowing Base.

(ii) The Agent Advances shall be repayable on demand and secured by the Agent’s Liens in and to the Collateral, shall constitute Revolving Loans and Obligations hereunder, and shall bear interest at the Base Rate applicable to the Revolving Loans from time to time. The Agent shall notify each Lender in writing of each such Agent Advance.

(j) Settlement. It is agreed that each Lender’s funded portion of the Revolving Loans is intended by the Lenders to be equal at all times to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding Revolving Loans. Notwithstanding such agreement, the Agent, the Bank, and the other Lenders agree (which agreement shall not be for the benefit of or enforceable by the Borrower) that in order to facilitate the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, settlement among them as to the Revolving Loans, the Non-Ratable Loans and the Agent Advances shall take place on a periodic basis in accordance with the following provisions:

(i) The Agent shall request settlement (“Settlement”) with the Lenders on at least a weekly basis, or on a more frequent basis if so determined by the Agent, (A) on behalf of the Bank, with respect to each outstanding Non-Ratable Loan, (B) for itself, with respect to each Agent Advance, and (C) with respect to collections received, in each case, by notifying the Lenders of such

requested Settlement by telecopy, telephone or other similar form of transmission, of such requested Settlement, no later than 10:00 a.m. (Pasadena, California time) on the date of such requested Settlement (the “Settlement Date”). Each Lender (other than the Bank, in the case of Non-Ratable Loans, and the Agent, in the case of Agent Advances) shall make the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding principal amount of the Non-Ratable Loans and Agent Advances with respect to which Settlement is requested available to the Agent, to such account of the Agent as the Agent may designate, not later than 12:00 noon (Pasadena, California time), on the Settlement Date applicable thereto, which may occur before or after the occurrence or during the continuation of a Default or an Event of Default and whether or not the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article 10 have then been satisfied. Such amounts made available to the Agent shall be applied against the amounts of the applicable Non-Ratable Loan or Agent Advance and, together with the portion of such Non-Ratable Loan or Agent Advance representing the Bank’s Pro Rata Share thereof, shall constitute Revolving Loans of such Lenders. If any such amount is not made available to the Agent by any Lender on the Settlement Date applicable thereto, the Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate for the first three (3) days from and after the Settlement Date and thereafter at the Base Rate then applicable to the Revolving Loans.

(ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, not more than one (1) Business Day after demand is made by the Agent (whether before or after the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default and regardless of whether the Agent has requested a Settlement with respect to a Non-Ratable Loan or Agent Advance), each other Lender (A) shall irrevocably and unconditionally purchase and receive from the Bank or the Agent, as applicable, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such Non-Ratable Loan or Agent Advance equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Non-Ratable Loan or Agent Advance, and (B) if Settlement has not previously occurred with respect to such Non-Ratable Loans or Agent Advances shall pay to Bank or Agent, as applicable, as the purchase price of such participation an amount equal to one-hundred percent (100%) of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Non-Ratable Loans or Agent Advances. If such amount is not in fact made available to the Agent by any Lender, the Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate for the first three (3) days from and after such demand and thereafter at the Base Rate then applicable to the Revolving Loans.

(iii) From and after the date, if any, on which any Lender purchases an undivided interest and participation in any Non-Ratable Loan or Agent Advance pursuant to subsection (ii) above, the Agent shall promptly distribute to such Lender at such address as such Lender may request in writing, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of all payments of principal and interest and all proceeds of Collateral received by the Agent in respect of such Non-Ratable Loan or Agent Advance.

(iv) Between Settlement Dates, the Agent, to the extent no Agent Advances or Non-Ratable Loans are outstanding, may pay over to the Bank any payments received by the Agent, which in accordance with the terms of this Agreement would be applied to the reduction of the Revolving Loans, for application to the Bank’s Revolving Loans. If, as of any Settlement Date, collections received since the then immediately preceding Settlement Date have been applied to the Bank’s Revolving Loans (other than to Non-Ratable Loans or Agent Advances in which such Lender has not yet funded its purchase of a participation pursuant to clause 2.2(j)(ii) above), as provided for in the previous sentence, the Bank shall pay to the Agent for the accounts of the Lenders, to be applied to the outstanding Revolving Loans of such Lenders, an amount such that each Lender shall, upon receipt of such amount, have, as of such Settlement Date, its Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loans. During the period between Settlement Dates, the Bank with respect to Non-Ratable Loans, the Agent with respect to Agent Advances, and each Lender with respect to the Revolving Loans other than Non-Ratable Loans and Agent Advances, shall be entitled to interest at the applicable rate or rates payable under this Agreement on the actual average daily amount of funds employed by the Bank, the Agent and the other Lenders. Nothing in this Section 2.2(j) is intended to impose any greater obligations on the Borrower to pay interest on the Loans outstanding hereunder than is otherwise provided for in this Agreement.

(k) Notation. The Agent shall record on its books the principal amount of the Revolving Loans owing to each Lender, including the Non-Ratable Loans owing to the Bank, and the Agent Advances owing to the Agent, from time to time. In addition, each Lender is authorized, at such Lender’s option, to note the date and amount of each payment or prepayment of principal of such Lender’s Revolving Loans in its books and records, including computer records, such books and records constituting presumptive evidence, absent manifest error, of the accuracy of the information contained therein.

(l) Lenders’ Failure to Perform. All Revolving Loans (other than Non-Ratable Loans and Agent Advances) shall be made by the Lenders simultaneously and in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares. It is understood that (i) no Lender shall be responsible for any failure

by any other Lender to perform its obligation to make any Revolving Loans hereunder, nor shall any Commitment of any Lender be increased or decreased as a result of any failure by any other Lender to perform its obligation to make any Revolving Loans hereunder, (ii) no failure by any Lender to perform its obligation to make any Revolving Loans hereunder shall excuse any other Lender from its obligation to make any Revolving Loans hereunder, and (iii) the obligations of each Lender hereunder shall be several, not joint and several.

2.3 Bank Products. The Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries may request and the Bank may, in its sole and absolute discretion, arrange for the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to obtain from the Bank or the Bank’s Affiliates Bank Products, although the Borrower and its Subsidiaries are not required to do so. In the event the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries request the Bank to procure Bank Products, then the Borrower and its Subsidiaries agree to indemnify and hold the Bank and the Lenders harmless from any and all obligations now or hereafter owing to any other Person by the Bank or any of the Lenders or the Bank’s affiliates arising from or related to such Bank Products. The Borrower and its Subsidiaries acknowledge and agree that the obtaining of Bank Products from the Bank or the Bank’s Affiliates (a) is in the sole and absolute discretion of the Bank or the Bank’s Affiliates, and (b) is subject to all rules and regulations of the Bank.

(a) Agreement to Issue or Cause To Issue. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and in reliance upon the representations and warranties of the Borrower herein set forth, the Agent agrees (i) to issue or cause to be issued for the account of the Borrower one or more commercial/documentary and standby letters of credit (“Letters of Credit”) and (ii) to provide credit support or other enhancement to a Letter of Credit Issuer acceptable to Agent, which issues Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrower (any such credit support or enhancement being herein referred to as a “Credit Support”) in accordance with this Section 2.4 from time to time during the term of this Agreement.

(b) Amounts; Outside Expiration Date. The Agent shall not have any obligation to take steps to issue or cause to be issued any Letter of Credit or to provide Credit Support for any Letter of Credit at any time if: (i) the maximum undrawn amount of the requested Letter of Credit is greater than the Unused Letter of Credit Subfacility at such time; (ii) the maximum undrawn amount of the requested Letter of Credit and all commissions, fees, and charges due from the Borrower in connection with the opening thereof exceed the Availability of the Borrower at such time; or (iii) such Letter of Credit has an expiration date later than thirty (30) days prior to the Stated Termination Date or more than twelve (12) months from the date of issuance.

(c) Other Conditions. In addition to being subject to the satisfaction of the applicable conditions precedent contained in Article 10, the obligation of the Agent to issue or to cause to be issued any Letter of Credit or to provide Credit Support for any Letter of Credit is subject to the following conditions precedent having been satisfied in a manner satisfactory to the Agent:

(1) The Borrower shall have delivered to the Letter of Credit Issuer, at such times and in such manner as such Letter of Credit Issuer may prescribe, an application in form and substance satisfactory to such Letter of Credit Issuer and the Agent for the issuance of the Letter of Credit and such other documents as may be required pursuant to the terms thereof, and the form and terms of the proposed Letter of Credit shall be satisfactory to the Agent and the Letter of Credit Issuer; and

(2) As of the date of issuance, no order of any court, arbitrator or Governmental Authority shall purport by its terms to enjoin or restrain money center banks generally from issuing letters of credit of the type and in the amount of the proposed Letter of Credit, and no law, rule or regulation applicable to money center banks generally and no request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over money center banks generally shall prohibit, or request that the proposed Letter of Credit Issuer refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or the issuance of such Letters of Credit.

(1) Request for Issuance. The Borrower shall give the Agent three (3) Business Days prior written notice of the Borrower’s request for the issuance of a Letter of Credit. Such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the original face amount of the Letter of Credit requested, the effective date (which date shall be a Business Day) of issuance of such requested Letter of Credit, whether such Letter of Credit may be drawn in a single or in partial draws, the date on which such requested Letter of Credit is to expire (which date shall be a Business Day), the purpose for which such Letter of Credit is to be issued, and the beneficiary of the requested Letter of Credit. The Borrower shall attach to such notice the proposed form of the Letter of Credit.

(2) Responsibilities of the Agent; Issuance. The Agent shall determine, as of the Business Day immediately preceding the requested effective date of issuance of the Letter of Credit set forth in the notice from the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.4(d)(1), (A) the amount of the applicable Unused Letter of Credit Subfacility and (B) the Availability as of such date. If (i) the undrawn amount of the requested Letter of Credit is not greater than the Unused Letter of Credit Subfacility and (ii) the issuance of such requested Letter of Credit and all commissions, fees, and charges due from the Borrower in connection with the opening thereof would not exceed the Availability of the Borrower, the Agent shall, so long as the other conditions hereof are met, issue or cause the Letter of Credit Issuer, if not the Bank, to issue the requested Letter of Credit on such requested effective date of issuance.

(3) Notice of Issuance. On each Settlement Date, the Agent shall give notice to each Lender of the issuance of all Letters of Credit issued since the last Settlement Date.

(4) No Extensions or Amendment. The Agent shall not be obligated to extend or amend any Letter of Credit issued hereunder unless the requirements of this Section 2.4 are met as though a new Letter of Credit were being

requested and issued. With respect to any Letter of Credit which contains any “evergreen” or automatic renewal provision, each Lender shall be deemed to have consented to any such extension or renewal unless any such Lender shall have provided to the Agent, not less than 30 days prior to the last date on which the applicable issuer can in accordance with the terms of the applicable Letter of Credit decline to extend or renew such Letter of Credit, written notice that it declines to consent to any such extension or renewal; provided, that if all of the requirements of this Section 2.4 are met and no Default or Event of Default exists, no Lender shall decline to consent to any such extension or renewal.

(1) Payment of Letter of Credit Obligations. The Borrower agrees to reimburse immediately the Letter of Credit Issuer for any draw under any Letter of Credit and the Agent for the account of the Lenders upon any payment pursuant to any Credit Support immediately upon demand, and to pay the Letter of Credit Issuer the amount of all other obligations and other amounts payable to such Letter of Credit Issuer under or in connection with any Letter of Credit immediately when due, irrespective of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which the Borrower may have at any time against such issuer or any other Person.

(2) Revolving Loans to Satisfy Reimbursement Obligations. In the event that the Letter of Credit Issuer of any Letter of Credit honors a draw under such Letter of Credit or the Agent shall have made any payment pursuant to any Credit Support and the Borrower shall not have repaid such amount to the Letter of Credit Issuer of such Letter of Credit or the Agent, as applicable, pursuant to Section 2.4(e)(1), the Agent shall, upon receiving notice of such failure, notify each Lender of such failure, and each Lender shall unconditionally pay to the Agent, for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer or the Agent, as applicable, as and when provided hereinbelow, an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the amount of such payment in Dollars and in same day funds. If the Agent so notifies the Lenders prior to 12:00 noon (Pasadena, California time) on any Business Day, each Lender shall make available to the Agent the amount of such payment, as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, on such Business Day. Such amounts paid by the Lenders to the Agent shall constitute Revolving Loans which shall be deemed to have been requested by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.2 as set forth in Section 4.7.

(1) Purchase of Participations. Immediately upon issuance of any Letter of Credit in accordance with Section 2.4(d), each Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased and received without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the face amount of such Letter of Credit or the Credit Support provided through the Agent to the Letter of Credit Issuer, if not the Agent, in connection with the issuance of such Letter of Credit (including all obligations of the Borrower with respect thereto, and any security therefor or guaranty pertaining thereto).

(2) Sharing of Reimbursement Obligation Payments. Whenever the Agent receives a payment from the Borrower on account of reimbursement obligations in respect of a Letter of Credit or Credit Support as to which the Agent has previously received for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer thereof payment from a Lender pursuant to Section 2.4(e)(2), the Agent shall promptly pay to such Lender such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such payment from the Borrower in Dollars. Each such payment shall be made by the Agent on the Business Day on which the Agent receives immediately available funds paid to such Person pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, if received prior to 1:00 p.m. (Pasadena, California time) on such Business Day and otherwise on the next succeeding Business Day.

(3) Documentation. Upon the request of any Lender, the Agent shall furnish to such Lender copies of any Letter of Credit, reimbursement agreements executed in connection therewith, application for any Letter of Credit and credit support or enhancement provided through the Agent in connection with the issuance of any Letter of Credit, and such other documentation as may reasonably be requested by such Lender.

(4) Obligations Irrevocable. The obligations of each Lender to make payments to the Agent with respect to any Letter of Credit or with respect to any Credit Support provided through the Agent with respect to a Letter of Credit, and the obligations of the Borrower to make payments to the Agent, for the account of the Lenders, shall be irrevocable, not subject to any qualification or exception whatsoever, including any of the following circumstances:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents;

(ii) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which the Borrower may have at any time against a beneficiary named in a Letter of Credit or any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such transferee may be acting), any Lender, the Agent, the issuer of such Letter of Credit, or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transactions (including any underlying transactions between the Borrower or any other Person and the beneficiary named in any Letter of Credit);

(iii) any draft, certificate or any other document presented under the Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;

(iv) the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms of any of the Loan Documents; or

(g) Recovery or Avoidance of Payments. In the event any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower received by the Agent with respect to any Letter of Credit or Credit

Support provided for any Letter of Credit and distributed by the Agent to the Lenders on account of their respective participations therein is thereafter set aside, avoided or recovered from the Agent in connection with any receivership, liquidation or bankruptcy proceeding, the Lenders shall, upon demand by the Agent, pay to the Agent their respective Pro Rata Shares of such amount set aside, avoided or recovered, together with interest at the rate required to be paid by the Agent upon the amount required to be repaid by it.

(1) Letter of Credit Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent with respect to each Letter of Credit, for the account of the Lenders, the Letter of Credit Fee specified in, and in accordance with the terms of, Section 3.6.

(2) Issuer Fees and Charges. The Borrower shall pay to the Letter of Credit Issuer of any Letter of Credit, or to the Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer of any such Letter of Credit, solely for such Letter of Credit Issuer’s account, such fees and other charges as are charged by such Letter of Credit Issuer for letters of credit issued by it, including its standard fees for issuing, administering, amending, renewing, paying and canceling letters of credit and all other fees associated with issuing or servicing letters of credit, as and when assessed.

(1) Indemnification. In addition to amounts payable as elsewhere provided in this Section 2.4, in Section 15.11 and pursuant to any indemnity agreement contained in any letter of credit agreement between the Borrower and any Letter of Credit Issuer (whether now existing or hereafter arising), the Borrower hereby agrees to protect, indemnify, pay and save the Lenders and the Agent harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) which any Lender or the Agent (other than the Agent in its capacity as Letter of Credit Issuer) may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of the issuance of any Letter of Credit or the provision of any credit support or enhancement in connection therewith. The agreement in this Section 2.4(i)(1) shall survive payment of all Obligations. Nothing contained in this Agreement is intended to limit or waive the Borrower’s rights, if any, with respect to the Letter of Credit Issuer which arise by operation of law or as a result of the letter of credit application and related documents executed by and between the Borrower and the Letter of Credit Issuer.

(2) Assumption of Risk by the Borrower. As among the Borrower, the Lenders, and the Agent, the Borrower assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of any of the Letters of Credit by, the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Lenders and the Agent shall not be responsible for: (A) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any Person in connection with the application for and issuance of and presentation of drafts with respect to any of the Letters of Credit, even if it should prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (B) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or

assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (C) the failure of the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit to comply duly with conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit; (D) errors, omissions, interruptions, or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (E) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (F) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order make a drawing under any Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; (G) the misapplication by the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; or (H) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the Lenders or the Agent, including any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto Governmental Authority. None of the foregoing shall affect, impair or prevent the vesting of any rights or powers of the Agent or any Lender under this Section 2.4(i).

(3) Exoneration. In furtherance and extension, and not in limitation, of the specific provisions set forth above, any action taken or omitted by the Agent or any Lender under or in connection with any of the Letters of Credit or any related certificates, if taken or omitted in good faith, shall not put the Agent or any Lender under any resulting liability to the Borrower or relieve the Borrower of any of its obligations hereunder to any such Person.

(4) Indemnification by Lenders. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Letter of Credit Issuer (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligations of Borrower hereunder) ratably in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares, for any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including attorneys’ fees) or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Letter of Credit Issuer in any way relating to or arising out of any Letter of Credit or the transactions contemplated thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Letter of Credit Issuer under any Letter of Credit or any Loan Document in connection therewith; provided that no Lender shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent it arises from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the person to be indemnified. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Letter of Credit Issuer promptly upon demand for its Pro Rata Share of any costs or expenses payable by Borrower to the Letter of Credit Issuer, to the extent that the Letter of Credit Issuer is not promptly reimbursed for such costs and expenses by Borrower. The agreement contained in this section shall survive payment in full of all Obligations.

(5) Account Party. The Borrower hereby authorizes and directs any Letter of Credit Issuer to name the Borrower as the “Account Party” therein and to deliver to the Agent all instruments, documents and other writings and property received by the Letter of Credit Issuer pursuant to the Letter of Credit, and to accept and rely upon the Agent’s instructions and agreements with respect to all matters arising in connection with the Letter of Credit or the application therefor.

(j) Supporting Letter of Credit; Cash Collateral. If, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.4(b) and Section 12.1 any Letter of Credit is outstanding upon the termination of this Agreement, then upon such termination the Borrower shall deposit with the Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Agent and the Lenders, with respect to each Letter of Credit then outstanding, as the Majority Lenders, in their discretion shall specify, either (A) a standby letter of credit (a “Supporting Letter of Credit”) in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent, issued by an issuer satisfactory to the Agent in an amount equal to the greatest amount for which such Letter of Credit may be drawn plus any fees and expenses associated with such Letter of Credit, under which Supporting Letter of Credit the Agent is entitled to draw amounts necessary to reimburse the Agent and the Lenders for payments to be made by the Agent and the Lenders under such Letter of Credit or under any credit support or enhancement provided through the Agent with respect thereto and any fees and expenses associated with such Letter of Credit, or (B) cash in amounts necessary to reimburse the Agent and the Lenders for payments made by the Agent or the Lenders under such Letter of Credit or under any credit support or enhancement provided through the Agent with respect thereto and any fees and expenses associated with such Letter of Credit. Such Supporting Letter of Credit or deposit of cash shall be held by the Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Agent and the Lenders, as security for, and to provide for the payment of, the aggregate undrawn amount of such Letters of Credit remaining outstanding.

(k) Existing Letters of Credit. Agent, Lenders and the Borrower acknowledge that the letters of credit identified on Schedule 8.8 as being issued by Bank (the “Existing L/Cs”) have been issued by Bank under the Original Agreement and remain outstanding. The Existing L/Cs shall constitute Letters of Credit hereunder.

(a) Interest Rates. All outstanding Obligations shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof (including, to the extent permitted by law, on interest thereon not paid when due) from the date made until paid in full in cash at a rate determined by reference to the Base Rate or the LIBOR Rate and Sections 3.1(a)(i) or (ii), as applicable, but not to exceed the Maximum Rate described in Section 3.3. Subject to the provisions of Section 3.2, any of the Loans may be converted into, or continued as, Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Rate Loans in the manner provided in Section 3.2. If at any time Loans are outstanding with respect to which notice has not been delivered to the Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement specifying the basis for determining the interest rate applicable thereto, then those Loans shall be Base Rate Loans and shall bear interest at a rate determined by reference to the Base Rate until notice to the contrary has been given to the Agent in accordance with this Agreement and such notice has become effective. Except as otherwise provided herein, the outstanding Obligations shall bear interest as follows:

(i) For all Base Rate Loans and other Obligations (other than LIBOR Rate Loans) at a fluctuating per annum rate equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin; and

(ii) For all LIBOR Rate Loans at a per annum rate equal to the LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

Each change in the Base Rate shall be reflected in the interest rate described in clause (i) above as of the effective date of such change. All interest charges shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed (which results in more interest being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year). Interest accrued on all Loans will be payable in arrears on the first day of each month hereafter.

(b) Default Rate. If any Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and the Majority Lenders in their discretion so elect, then, while any such Default or Event of Default is outstanding, all of the Obligations shall bear interest at the Default Rate applicable thereto.

3.2 Conversion and Continuation Elections. (a) The Borrower may, upon irrevocable written notice to the Agent in accordance with Section 3.2(b):

(i) elect, as of any Business Day, in the case of Base Rate Loans to convert any such Loans (or any part thereof in an amount not less than $5,000,000, or that is in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof) into LIBOR Rate Loans; or

(ii) elect, as of the last day of the applicable Interest Period, to continue any LIBOR Rate Loans having Interest Periods expiring on such day (or any part thereof in an amount not less than $5,000,000, or that is in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof);

provided, that if at any time the aggregate amount of LIBOR Rate Loans in respect of any Borrowing is reduced, by payment, prepayment, or conversion of part thereof to be less than $5,000,000, such LIBOR Rate Loans shall automatically convert into Base Rate Loans, and on and after such date the right of the Borrower to continue such Loans as, and convert such Loans into, LIBOR Rate Loans, as the case may be, shall terminate.

(b) The Borrower shall deliver a notice of conversion/continuation in the form of Exhibit C (“Notice of Conversion/Continuation”) to be received by the Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (Pasadena, California time) at least three Business Days in advance of the Conversion/Continuation Date, if the Loans are to be converted into or continued as LIBOR Rate Loans and specifying:

(iv) the type of Loans resulting from the proposed conversion or continuation; and

(c) If upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to LIBOR Rate Loans, the Borrower has failed to select timely a new Interest Period to be applicable to LIBOR Rate Loans or if any Default or Event of Default then exists, the Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to convert such LIBOR Rate Loans into Base Rate Loans effective as of the expiration date of such Interest Period.

(d) The Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of a Notice of Conversion/Continuation. All conversions and continuations shall be made ratably according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Loans with respect to which the notice was given held by each Lender.

(e) During the existence of a Default or Event of Default, the Borrower may not elect to have a Loan converted into or continued as a LIBOR Rate Loan.

(f) After giving effect to any conversion or continuation of Loans, there may not be more than five different Interest Periods in effect hereunder.

3.3 Maximum Interest Rate. In no event shall any interest rate provided for hereunder exceed the maximum rate legally chargeable by any Lender under applicable law for such Lender with respect to loans of the type provided for hereunder (the “Maximum Rate”). If, in any month, any interest rate, absent such limitation, would have exceeded the Maximum Rate, then the interest rate for that month shall be the Maximum Rate, and, if in future months, that interest rate would otherwise be less than the Maximum Rate, then that interest rate shall remain at the Maximum Rate until such time as the amount of interest paid hereunder equals the amount of interest which would have been paid if the same had not been limited by the Maximum Rate. In the event that, upon payment in full of the Obligations, the total amount of interest paid or accrued under the terms of this Agreement is less than the total amount of interest which would, but for this Section 3.3, have been paid or accrued if the interest rates otherwise set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect, then the Borrower shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, pay the Agent, for the account of the Lenders, an amount equal to the excess of (a) the lesser of (i) the amount of interest which would have been charged if the Maximum Rate had, at all times, been in effect or (ii) the amount of interest which would have accrued had the interest rates otherwise set forth in this Agreement, at all times, been in effect over (b) the amount of interest actually paid or accrued under this Agreement. In the event that a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the Agent and/or any Lender has received interest and other charges hereunder in excess of the Maximum Rate, such excess shall be deemed received on account of, and shall automatically be applied to reduce, the Obligations other than interest, in the inverse order of maturity, and if there are no Obligations outstanding, the Agent and/or such Lender shall refund to the Borrower such excess.

3.4 Agent’s Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay the Agent the fees (the “Agent’s Fees”) at the times and in the amounts as set forth in the Fee Letter.

3.5 Unused Line Fee. Until the Loans have been paid in full and the Agreement terminated, the Borrower agrees to pay, on the first day of each month and on the Termination

Date, to the Agent, for the account of the Lenders, in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares, an unused line fee (the “Unused Line Fee”) equal to the Applicable Fee Amount times the amount by which the Maximum Revolver Amount exceeded the sum of the average daily outstanding amount of Revolving Loans and the average daily undrawn face amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit during the immediately preceding month, or shorter period if calculated on the Termination Date. The Unused Line Fee shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed and shall accrue at all times from and after (but not prior to) the Loan Availability Date. All payments received by the Agent on account of Accounts or as proceeds of other Collateral shall be deemed to be credited to the Loan Account immediately upon receipt for purposes of calculating the Unused Line Fee pursuant to this Section 3.5.

3.6 Letter of Credit Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent, for the account of the Lenders, in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares, for each Letter of Credit, a fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) equal to the Applicable Fee Amount times the undrawn face amount of each Letter of Credit, plus all out-of-pocket costs, fees and expenses incurred by the Agent in connection with the application for, processing of, issuance of, or amendment to any Letter of Credit, which costs, fees and expenses could include a “fronting fee” of 0.125% of the face amount of each Letter of Credit payable to such issuer; The Letter of Credit Fee shall be payable monthly in arrears on the first day of each month following any month in which a Letter of Credit was issued or deemed issued (in the case of any Existing Letter of Credit) and/or in which a Letter of Credit remains outstanding. The Letter of Credit Fee shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed.

4.1 Revolving Loans. The Borrower shall repay the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loans, plus all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, on the Termination Date. The Borrower may prepay Revolving Loans at any time, and reborrow subject to the terms of this Agreement; provided, however, that with respect to any LIBOR Rate Loans prepaid by the Borrower prior to the expiration date of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower promises to pay to the Agent for account of the Lenders the amounts described in Section 5.4. In addition, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, upon demand the Borrower promises to pay to the Agent, for account of the Lenders, the amount, without duplication, by which the Aggregate Revolver Outstandings exceed the Borrowing Base.

4.2 Termination of Facility. Effective from and after the Loan Availability Date, the Borrower may terminate this Agreement upon at least fifteen (15) Business Days’ notice to the Agent and the Lenders, upon (a) the payment in full of all outstanding Revolving Loans, together with accrued interest thereon, and the cancellation and return of all outstanding Letters of Credit, (b) the payment of the early termination fee set forth in the next sentence, (c) the payment in full in cash of all other Obligations together with accrued interest thereon, and (d) with respect to any LIBOR Rate Loans prepaid in connection with such termination prior to the expiration date of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the payment of the amounts described in Section 5.4. If this Agreement is terminated at any time prior to the Stated Termination Date, whether pursuant

to this Section or pursuant to Section 11.2, the Borrower shall pay to the Agent, for the account of the Lenders, an early termination fee determined in accordance with the following table:

4.3 Payments by the Borrower. (a) All payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made without set-off, recoupment or counterclaim. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrower shall be made to the Agent for the account of the Lenders at the Agent’s address set forth in Section 15.8, and shall be made in Dollars and in immediately available funds, no later than 1:00 p.m. (Pasadena, California time) on the date specified herein. Any payment received by the Agent later than 1:00 p.m. (Pasadena, California time) shall be deemed to have been received on the following Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue.

(b) Subject to the provisions set forth in the definition of “Interest Period” herein, whenever any payment is due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the following Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or fees, as the case may be.

(c) Unless the Agent receives notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders that the Borrower will not make such payment in full as and when required, the Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment in full to the Agent on such date in immediately available funds and the Agent may (but shall not be so

required), in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent the Borrower has not made such payment in full to the Agent, each Lender shall repay to the Agent on demand such amount distributed to such Lender, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date repaid.

4.4 Payments as Revolving Loans. All payments of principal, interest, reimbursement obligations in connection with Letters of Credit, fees, premiums and other sums payable hereunder, including all reimbursement for expenses pursuant to Section 15.7, may, at the option of the Agent, in its sole discretion, subject only to the terms of this Section 4.4, be paid from the proceeds of Revolving Loans made hereunder, whether made following a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.2 or a deemed request as provided in this Section 4.4. The Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the Agent to charge the Loan Account for the purpose of paying principal, interest, reimbursement obligations in connection with Letters of Credit, fees, premiums and other sums payable hereunder, including reimbursing expenses pursuant to Section 15.7, and agrees that all such amounts charged shall constitute Revolving Loans (including Non-Ratable Loans and Agent Advances) and that all such Revolving Loans so made shall be deemed to have been requested by Borrower pursuant to Section 2.2.

4.5 Apportionment, Application and Reversal of Payments. Aggregate principal and interest payments shall be apportioned ratably among the Lenders (according to the unpaid principal balance of the Loans to which such payments relate held by each Lender) and payments of the fees shall, as applicable, be apportioned ratably among the Lenders. All payments shall be remitted to the Agent and all such payments not relating to principal or interest of specific Loans, or not constituting payment of specific fees, and all proceeds of Accounts or other Collateral received by the Agent, shall be applied, ratably, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, first, to pay any fees, indemnities or expense reimbursements then due to the Agent from the Borrower; second, to pay any fees or expense reimbursements then due to the Lenders from the Borrower; third, to pay interest due in respect of all Revolving Loans, including Non-Ratable Loans and Agent Advances; fourth, to pay or prepay principal of the Non-Ratable Loans and Agent Advances; fifth, to pay or prepay principal of the Revolving Loans (other than Non-Ratable Loans and Agent Advances) and unpaid reimbursement obligations in respect of Letters of Credit; sixth to any amounts owing under any Bank Product; and seventh, to the payment of any other Obligation due to the Agent or any Lender by the Borrower. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, unless so directed by the Borrower, or unless an Event of Default is outstanding, neither the Agent nor any Lender shall apply any payments which it receives to any LIBOR Rate Loan, except (a) on the expiration date of the Interest Period applicable to any such LIBOR Rate Loan, or (b) in the event, and only to the extent, that there are no outstanding Base Rate Loans. The Agent shall promptly distribute to each Lender, pursuant to the applicable wire transfer instructions received from each Lender in writing, such funds as it may be entitled to receive, subject to a Settlement delay as provided for in Section 2.2(j). The Agent and the Lenders shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply and reverse and reapply any and all such proceeds and payments to any portion of the Obligations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all proceeds of cash collateral and cash equivalents that is subject to a Lien in favor of the Bank permitted under clause (l) of the definition of “Permitted Liens” shall be applied, first, to pay all obligations of

the Parent and its Subsidiaries secured thereby in respect of Bank Products, letters of credit and other financial accommodations provided from time to time by the Bank.

4.6 Indemnity for Returned Payments. If, after receipt of any payment of, or proceeds applied to the payment of, all or any part of the Obligations, the Agent or any Lender is for any reason compelled to surrender such payment or proceeds to any Person, because such payment or application of proceeds is invalidated, declared fraudulent, set aside, determined to be void or voidable as a preference, impermissible setoff, or a diversion of trust funds, or for any other reason, then the Obligations or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continue and this Agreement shall continue in full force as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by the Agent or such Lender, and the Borrower shall be liable to pay to the Agent, and hereby does indemnify the Agent and the Lenders and hold the Agent and the Lenders harmless for, the amount of such payment or proceeds surrendered. The provisions of this Section 4.6 shall be and remain effective notwithstanding any contrary action which may have been taken by the Agent or any Lender in reliance upon such payment or application of proceeds, and any such contrary action so taken shall be without prejudice to the Agent’s and the Lenders’ rights under this Agreement and shall be deemed to have been conditioned upon such payment or application of proceeds having become final and irrevocable. The provisions of this Section 4.6 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

4.7 Agent’s and Lenders’ Books and Records; Monthly Statements. The Borrower agrees that the Agent’s and each Lender’s books and records showing the Obligations and the transactions pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be admissible in any action or proceeding arising therefrom, and shall constitute rebuttably presumptive proof thereof, irrespective of whether any Obligation is also evidenced by a promissory note or other instrument. The Agent will provide to the Borrower a monthly statement of Loans, payments, and other transactions pursuant to this Agreement. Such statement shall be deemed correct, accurate, and binding on the Borrower and an account stated (except for reversals and reapplications of payments made as provided in Section 4.5 and corrections of errors discovered by the Agent), unless the Borrower notifies the Agent in writing to the contrary within thirty (30) days after such statement is rendered. In the event a timely written notice of objections is given by the Borrower, only the items to which exception is expressly made will be considered to be disputed by the Borrower.

5.1 Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by the Borrower to each Lender or the Agent under this Agreement and any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes. In addition, the Borrower shall pay all Other Taxes.

(b) The Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Lender and the Agent for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section) paid by the Lender or the Agent and any liability (including penalties, interest, additions to tax and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted.

Payment under this indemnification shall be made within 30 days after the date the Lender or the Agent makes written demand therefor.

(c) If the Borrower shall be required by law to deduct or withhold any Taxes or Other Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to any Lender or the Agent, then:

(i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions and withholdings (including deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) such Lender or the Agent, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made;

(iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant taxing authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law; and

(iv) the Borrower shall also pay to each Lender or the Agent for the account of such Lender, at the time interest is paid, all additional amounts which the respective Lender specifies as necessary to preserve the after-tax yield the Lender would have received if such Taxes or Other Taxes had not been imposed.

(d) Within 30 days after the date of any payment by the Borrower of Taxes or Other Taxes, the Borrower shall furnish the Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof, or other evidence of payment satisfactory to the Agent.

(e) If the Borrower is required to pay additional amounts to any Lender or the Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its lending office so as to eliminate any such additional payment by the Borrower which may thereafter accrue, if such change in the judgment of such Lender is not otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

5.2 Illegality. (a) If any Lender determines that the introduction of any Requirement of Law, or any change in any Requirement of Law, or in the interpretation or administration of any Requirement of Law, has made it unlawful, or that any central bank or other Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable lending office to make LIBOR Rate Loans, then, on notice thereof by the Lender to the Borrower through the Agent, any obligation of that Lender to make LIBOR Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Lender notifies the Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist.

(b) If a Lender determines that it is unlawful to maintain any LIBOR Rate Loan, the Borrower shall, upon its receipt of notice of such fact and demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Agent), prepay in full such LIBOR Rate Loans of that Lender then outstanding,

together with interest accrued thereon and amounts required under Section 5.4, either on the last day of the Interest Period thereof, if the Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if the Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Rate Loan. If the Borrower is required to so prepay any LIBOR Rate Loan, then concurrently with such prepayment, the Borrower may, at its option, borrow from the affected Lender, in the amount of such repayment, a Base Rate Loan.

5.3 Increased Costs and Reduction of Return. (a) If any Lender determines that, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change in the interpretation of any law or regulation or (ii) the compliance by that Lender with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be any increase in the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any LIBOR Rate Loans, or agreeing to issue, issuing, funding or maintaining any Letter of Credit, then the Borrower shall be liable for, and shall from time to time, upon demand (with a copy of such demand to be sent to the Agent), pay to the Agent for the account of such Lender, additional amounts as are sufficient to compensate such Lender for such increased costs.

(b) If any Lender shall have determined that (i) the introduction of any Capital Adequacy Regulation, (ii) any change in any Capital Adequacy Regulation, (iii) any change in the interpretation or administration of any Capital Adequacy Regulation by any central bank or other Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or (iv) compliance by the Lender or any corporation or other entity controlling the Lender with any Capital Adequacy Regulation, affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by the Lender or any corporation or other entity controlling the Lender and (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such corporation’s or other entity’s policies with respect to capital adequacy and such Lender’s desired return on capital) determines that the amount of such capital is increased as a consequence of its Commitments, loans, credits or obligations under this Agreement, then, upon demand of such Lender to the Borrower through the Agent, the Borrower shall pay to the Lender, from time to time as specified by the Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate the Lender for such increase.

5.4 Funding Losses. The Borrower shall reimburse each Lender and hold each Lender harmless from any loss or expense which the Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of:

(a) the failure of the Borrower to make on a timely basis any payment of principal of any LIBOR Rate Loan;

(b) the failure of the Borrower to borrow, continue or convert a Loan after the Borrower has given (or is deemed to have given) a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion/ Continuation;

(c) the prepayment or other payment (including after acceleration thereof) of an LIBOR Rate Loan on a day that is not the last day of the relevant Interest Period;

including any such loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain its LIBOR Rate Loans or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained.

5.5 Inability to Determine Rates. If the Agent determines that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the LIBOR Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBOR Rate Loan, or that the LIBOR Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBOR Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of funding such Loan, the Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans hereunder shall be suspended until the Agent revokes such notice in writing. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation then submitted by it. If the Borrower does not revoke such Notice, the Lenders shall make, convert or continue the Loans, as proposed by the Borrower, in the amount specified in the applicable notice submitted by the Borrower, but such Loans shall be made, converted or continued as Base Rate Loans instead of LIBOR Rate Loans.

5.6 Certificates of Lenders. Any Lender claiming reimbursement or compensation under this Article 5 shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Agent) a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the amount payable to the Lender hereunder and such certificate shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower in the absence of manifest error.

5.7 Survival. The agreements and obligations of the Borrower in this Article 5 shall survive the payment of all other Obligations.

6.1 Grant of Security Interest. (a) As security for all Obligations, the Borrower hereby grants to the Agent, for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders, a continuing security interest in, lien on, assignment of and right of set-off against, all of the following property and assets of the Borrower, whether now owned or existing or hereafter acquired or arising, regardless of where located:

(i) all Accounts (including supporting obligations (as such term is defined in the UCC));

(iii) all chattel paper, instruments and documents (as such terms are defined in the UCC);

(v) all money, cash, cash equivalents, securities and other property of any kind of the Borrower held directly or indirectly by the Agent or any Lender or by any bank or securities intermediary which is party to a Control Agreement;

(vi) all of the Borrower’s Deposit Accounts, Securities Accounts, credits, and balances with and other claims against the Agent or any Lender or any of their Affiliates, including any Payment Account;

(vii) all books, records and other property related to or referring to any of the foregoing (but subject to the paragraph immediately following clause (viii) below), including books, records, account ledgers, data processing records, computer software and other property and General Intangibles at any time evidencing or relating to any of the foregoing; and

(viii) all accessions to, substitutions for and replacements, products and proceeds of any of the foregoing (but subject to the immediately succeeding paragraph), including, but not limited to, proceeds of any insurance policies and claims against third parties with respect to all or any of the foregoing.

All of the foregoing and all other property of the Borrower in which the Agent or any Lender may at any time be granted a Lien, is herein collectively referred to as the “Collateral.” Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.1, such grant of a security interest shall not extend to, and the term “Collateral” shall not include:

(i) any General Intangibles of the Borrower consisting of licenses, leases or other contracts or any Accounts payable to the Parent by FASL (Japan) (such Accounts, the “FASL (Japan) Accounts”) or any chattel paper, documents or instruments evidencing any rights to payment or other obligations of FASL (Japan) to the Parent (the “FASL (Japan) Documents”), to the extent that (A) such General Intangibles, FASL (Japan) Accounts or FASL (Japan) Documents are not assignable or capable of being encumbered as a matter of law or under the terms of the license, lease or other agreement applicable thereto, including the FASL (Japan) Agreements (but solely to the extent that any such restriction shall be enforceable under applicable law), without the consent of the licensor or lessor thereof or other applicable party thereto and (B) such consent has not been obtained; provided, however, that the foregoing grant of security interest shall extend to, and the term “Collateral” shall include (but subject to the exclusions from the definition of General Intangibles set forth in clauses (a) and (b) of such definition), (1) any General Intangible which are proceeds of, or otherwise related to the enforcement or collection of, any Account (other than any FASL (Japan) Account which is excludable as provided above), (2) any and all proceeds of any General Intangibles and of the FASL (Japan) Accounts or FASL (Japan) Documents which are otherwise excluded to the extent that the assignment or encumbrance of such proceeds is not so restricted, and (3) upon obtaining the consent of any such licensor, lessor or other applicable party with respect to any such otherwise excluded General Intangibles, FASL (Japan) Accounts or FASL (Japan) Documents (it being understood by the parties that the Borrower shall be under no obligation hereunder to obtain any such consent), such General

Intangibles, FASL (Japan) Accounts and FASL (Japan) Documents, as well as any and all proceeds thereof, that might have theretofore have been excluded from such grant of a security interest and the term “Collateral”;

(ii) any Accounts payable to the Parent by the German Subsidiary (such Accounts, the “German Subsidiary Accounts”) or any General Intangibles or chattel paper, documents or instruments evidencing any rights to payment or other obligations of the German Subsidiary to the Parent, including the Dresden Agreements, and any proceeds thereof;

(iii) any Accounts payable to the Parent by the Mask House Affiliates or any General Intangibles or chattel paper, documents or instruments evidencing any rights to payment or other obligations of the Mask House Affiliates to the Parent, including the Mask House Agreements, and any proceeds thereof; and

(iv) the FASL (Delaware) Contributed Collateral upon the sale, contribution or transfer thereof to FASL (Delaware) pursuant to the FASL (Delaware) Organizational Documents.

6.2 Perfection and Protection of Security Interest. (a) The Borrower shall, at its expense, perform all steps requested by the Agent at any time to perfect, maintain, protect, and enforce the Agent’s Liens, including: (i) executing and filing financing or continuation statements, and amendments thereof, in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent; (ii) delivering to the Agent the originals of all instruments, documents, and chattel paper, and all other Collateral of which the Agent determines it should have physical possession in order to perfect and protect the Agent’s security interest therein, duly pledged, endorsed or assigned to the Agent without restriction; (iii) delivering to the Agent warehouse receipts covering any portion of the Collateral located in warehouses and for which warehouse receipts are issued and certificates of title covering any portion of the collateral for which certificates of title have been issued; (iv) when an Event of Default exists, transferring Inventory to warehouses designated by the Agent; (v) placing notations on the Borrower’s books of account to disclose the Agent’s security interest; (vii) delivering to the Agent all letters of credit on which the Borrower is named beneficiary; and (viii) taking such other steps as are reasonably deemed necessary or desirable by the Agent to maintain and protect the Agent’s Liens. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Agent may file, without the Borrower’s signature, one or more financing statements disclosing the Agent’s Liens. The Borrower agrees that a carbon, photographic, photostatic, or other reproduction of this Agreement or of a financing statement is sufficient as a financing statement.

(b) If any Collateral is at any time in the possession or control of any warehouseman, bailee or any of the Borrower’s agents or processors, then the Borrower shall notify the Agent thereof and shall, at the request of Agent, notify such Person of the Agent’s security interest in such Collateral and instruct such Person to hold all such Collateral for the Agent’s account subject to the Agent’s instructions. If at any time any Collateral is located on any operating facility of the Borrower which is not owned by the Borrower, then the Borrower

shall, at the request of the Agent, obtain written subordinations, in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent, of all present and future Liens to which the owner or lessor of such premises may be entitled to assert against the Collateral.

(c) From time to time, the Borrower shall, upon the Agent’s request, execute and deliver confirmatory written instruments pledging to the Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Agent and the Lenders, the Collateral with respect to the Borrower, but the Borrower’s failure to do so shall not affect or limit any security interest or any other rights of the Agent or any Lender in and to the Collateral with respect to the Borrower. So long as this Agreement is in effect and until all Obligations have been fully satisfied, the Agent’s Liens shall continue in full force and effect in all Collateral (whether or not deemed eligible for the purpose of calculating the Availability or as the basis for any advance, loan, extension of credit, or other financial accommodation).

6.3 Location of Collateral. The Borrower represents and warrants to the Agent and the Lenders that: (a) Schedule 6.3 is a correct and complete list of the Borrower’s chief executive office, the location of its books and records and the locations of the Collateral; and (b) Schedule 6.3 correctly identifies any of such facilities and locations that are not owned by the Borrower. The Borrower covenants and agrees that it will not (i) maintain any Collateral at any location other than those locations listed for the Borrower on Schedule 6.3, (ii) otherwise change or add to any of such locations, or (iii) change its jurisdiction of organization or the location of its chief executive office from the location identified in Schedule 6.3, unless it gives the Agent at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice thereof and executes any and all financing statements and other documents that the Agent reasonably requests in connection therewith. Without limiting the foregoing, the Borrower represents that all of its Inventory (other than Inventory in transit) is, and covenants that all of its Inventory will be, located either (a) on premises owned by the Borrower, (b) on premises leased by the Borrower, provided that the Agent has, if reasonably requested by the Agent, received an executed landlord waiver from the landlord of such premises in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent, or (c) in a warehouse or with a bailee, provided that the Agent has, if reasonably requested by the Agent, received an executed bailee letter from the applicable Person in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent.

6.4 Title to, Liens on, and Sale and Use of Collateral. The Borrower represents and warrants to the Agent and the Lenders and agrees with the Agent and the Lenders that: (a) all of the Collateral is and will continue to be owned by the Borrower free and clear of all Liens whatsoever, except for Permitted Liens; (b) the Agent’s Liens in the Collateral will not be subject to any prior Lien; (c) the Borrower will use, store, and maintain the Collateral with all reasonable care and will use such Collateral for lawful purposes only; and (d) the Borrower will not, without the Agent’s prior written approval, sell, or dispose of or permit the sale or disposition of any of the Collateral except for sales for scrap of excess or no-movement Inventory and other Inventory in the ordinary course of business. The inclusion of proceeds in the Collateral shall not be deemed to constitute the Agent’s or any Lender’s consent to any sale or other disposition of the Collateral except as expressly permitted herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower and its Subsidiaries may sell, contribute, or otherwise transfer the FASL (Delaware) Contributed Collateral to FASL (Delaware) in accordance with the FASL (Delaware) Organizational Documents and the Agent shall release any Agent’s Liens on the FASL (Delaware) Contributed Collateral and shall execute such documents as may be necessary to

evidence the release of the Agent’s Liens upon such Collateral; provided, that, after such sale, contribution or transfer thereof, the Borrower will have Net Domestic Cash of no less than $200,000,000.

6.5 Appraisals. Whenever an Event of Default exists, and at such other times not more frequently than once a year as the Agent requests, the Borrower shall, at its expense and upon the Agent’s request, provide the Agent with appraisals or updates thereof of any or all of the Collateral from an appraiser, and prepared on a basis, reasonably satisfactory to the Agent, such appraisals and updates to include, without limitation, information required by applicable law and regulation and by the internal policies of the Lenders.

6.6 Access and Examination; Confidentiality. (a) The Agent, accompanied by any Lender which so elects, may, at Borrower’s expense, at all reasonable times during regular business hours (and at any time when an Event of Default exists and is continuing) have access to, examine, audit, make extracts from or copies of and inspect any or all of the Borrower’s records, files, and books of account and the Collateral, and discuss the Borrower’s affairs with the Borrower’s officers and management; provided that the Agent and the Lenders agree that, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Agent shall not conduct any such examination, audit or other inspection more than (i) two times in any calendar year at any time prior to the first date, if any, on which the Loan to Availability Ratio is equal to or greater than 50% for fifteen (15) consecutive days (such date, a “Trigger Date”) and (ii) four times in any calendar year at any time thereafter; provided, further, that if after any Trigger Date the Loan to Availability Ratio is less than 50% for 120 consecutive days (such 120th day, a “Shut-Off Date”) then, from and after such Shut-Off Date, the Agent and the Lenders agree that, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Agent shall not conduct any such examination, audit or other inspection more than (x) two times during the portion of the calendar year then remaining after such Shut-Off Date (and in no event more than four times in all of such calendar year) and in any calendar year thereafter until the next Trigger Date, if any, and (y) four times in any calendar year at any time thereafter until the next Shut-Off Date, if any. The parties agree that the immediately preceding proviso shall govern the permitted frequency of examinations, audits and other inspections conducted by the Agent pursuant to this Section 6.6 in respect of each subsequent Trigger Date and Shut-Off Date occurring thereafter. The parties further agree that the Agent may conduct additional examinations, audits or other inspections, at the expense of the Agent and the Lenders, at all reasonable times during regular business hours, in addition to those contemplated above in this Section 6.6. The Borrower will deliver to the Agent any instrument necessary for the Agent to obtain records from any service bureau maintaining records for the Borrower. The Agent may, and at the direction of the Majority Lenders shall, at any time when a Default or Event of Default exists, and at the Borrower’s expense, make copies of all of the Borrower’s books and records relating to the Collateral and all relevant financial records, or require the Borrower to deliver such copies to the Agent. The Agent may, without expense to the Agent, use such of the Borrower’s respective personnel, supplies, and premises as may be reasonably necessary for maintaining or enforcing the Agent’s Liens. The Agent shall have the right, at any time, in the Agent’s name or in the name of a nominee of the Agent, to verify the validity, amount or any other matter relating to the Accounts, Inventory, or other Collateral, by mail, telephone, or otherwise.

(b) The Borrower agrees that, subject to the Borrower’s prior consent for uses other than in a traditional tombstone, the Agent and each Lender may use the Borrower’s name in advertising and promotional material and in conjunction therewith disclose the general terms of this Agreement. The Agent and each Lender severally agree to take commercially reasonable precautions and exercise due care to maintain the confidentiality of all information identified as “confidential” or “secret” by the Borrower and provided to the Agent or such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and neither the Agent, nor such Lender nor any of their respective Affiliates shall use any such information other than in connection with or in enforcement of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, except to the extent that such information (i) was or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of disclosure by the Agent or such Lender, or (ii) was or becomes available on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower, provided that such source is not bound by a confidentiality agreement with the Borrower known to the Agent or such Lender; provided, however, that the Agent and any Lender may disclose such information (1) at the request or pursuant to any requirement of any Governmental Authority to which the Agent or such Lender is subject or in connection with an examination of the Agent or such Lender by any such Governmental Authority; (2) pursuant to subpoena or other court process; (3) when required to do so in accordance with the provisions of any applicable Requirement of Law; (4) to the extent reasonably required in connection with any litigation or proceeding (including, but not limited to, any bankruptcy proceeding) to which the Agent, any Lender or their respective Affiliates may be party; (5) to the extent reasonably required in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document; (6) to the Agent’s or such Lender’s independent auditors, accountants, attorneys and other professional advisors; (7) to any prospective Participant or Assignee under any Assignment and Acceptance, actual or potential, provided that such prospective Participant or Assignee agrees to keep such information confidential to the same extent required of the Agent and the Lenders hereunder; (8) as expressly permitted under the terms of any other document or agreement regarding confidentiality to which the Borrower is party or is deemed party with the Agent or such Lender; (9) to its Affiliates, provided that such Affiliates agree to be bound by the confidentiality provisions of this Section 6.6; and (10) with respect to the “tax treatment” and “tax structure” (in each case, within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011-4) of the transactions contemplated hereby and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to the Agent or such Lender relating to such tax treatment and tax structure; provided that with respect to any document or similar item that in either case contains information concerning the tax treatment or tax structure of the transactions as well as other information, this sentence shall only apply to such portions of the document or similar item that relate to the tax treatment or tax structure of the Loans, Letters of Credit and transactions contemplated hereby.

6.7 Collateral Reporting. The Borrower shall provide the Agent with the following documents at the following times in form satisfactory to the Agent: (a) on a monthly basis, at any time prior to the first date, if any, on which either (i) the Loan to Availability Ratio is equal to or greater than 40% for five (5) consecutive Business Days or (ii) Availability as of the close of Agent’s business is less than $50,000,000 (either of such dates, a “Trigger Date”), and on a weekly basis thereafter, a schedule of the Borrower’s Accounts created since the last such schedule, which schedule shall also identify any collections, credits and other adjustments in respect of the Borrower’s Accounts since the last such schedule, and a Borrowing Base

Certificate; provided, however, that if after any Trigger Date the Loan to Availability Ratio is less than 40% for 120 consecutive days (such 120th day, a “Shut-Off Date”) then, from and after such Shut-Off Date, the Agent and the Lenders agree that the Borrower shall only be required to deliver each such schedule of Borrower’s Accounts and each such Borrowing Base Certificate on a monthly basis until the next Trigger Date, if any, and on a weekly basis thereafter until the next Shut-Off Date, if any (the parties agree that the immediately preceding proviso shall govern the required frequency of the Borrower’s delivery of schedules of Borrower’s Accounts and Borrowing Base Certificates pursuant to this Section 6.7 in respect of each subsequent Trigger Date and Shut-Off Date occurring thereafter); (b) on a monthly basis, (i) within seven (7) Business Days after the end of each month, an aging of the Borrower’s Accounts, together with a reconciliation to the previous month’s or week’s, as the case may be, aging of the Borrower’s Accounts and to the Borrower’s general ledger; (ii) within ten (10) Business Days after the end of each month, an aging of the Borrower’s accounts payable; and (iii) within ten (10) Business Days after the end of each month, Inventory reports by category, with additional detail showing additions to and deletions from the Inventory; (c) upon request, copies of invoices in connection with the Accounts, customer statements, credit memos, remittance advices and reports, deposit slips, shipping and delivery documents in connection with the Borrower’s Accounts and for Inventory and Equipment acquired by the Borrower, purchase orders and invoices; (d) upon request, a statement of the balance of each of the Intercompany Accounts; (e) such other reports as to the Collateral as the Agent shall reasonably request from time to time; and (f) with the delivery of each of the foregoing, a certificate of the Borrower executed by an officer thereof certifying as to the accuracy and completeness of the foregoing. If any of the Borrower’s records or reports of the Collateral are prepared by an accounting service or other agent, the Borrower hereby authorizes such service or agent to deliver such records, reports, and related documents to the Agent, for distribution to the Lenders.

6.8 Accounts. (a) The Borrower hereby represents and warrants to the Agent and the Lenders, with respect to the Borrower’s Accounts, that: (i) each existing Account represents, and each future Account will represent, a bona fide sale or lease and delivery of goods by the Borrower, or rendition of services by the Borrower, in the ordinary course of the Borrower’s business; (ii) each existing Account is, and each future Account will be, for a liquidated amount payable by the Account Debtor thereon on the terms set forth in the invoice therefor or in the schedule thereof delivered to the Agent, without any offset, deduction, defense, or counterclaim except those known to the Borrower and disclosed to the Agent and the Lenders pursuant to this Agreement; (iii) no payment will be received with respect to any Account, and no credit, discount, or extension, or agreement therefor will be granted on any Account, except as reported to the Agent and the Lenders in accordance with this Agreement; (iv) each copy of an invoice delivered to the Agent by the Borrower will be a genuine copy of the original invoice sent to the Account Debtor named therein; and (v) all goods described in any invoice representing a sale of goods will have been delivered to the Account Debtor and all services of the Borrower described in each invoice will have been performed.

(b) The Borrower shall not re-date any invoice or sale or make sales on extended dating beyond that customary in the Borrower’s business or extend or modify any Account. If the Borrower becomes aware of any matter adversely affecting the collectability of any Account or Account Debtor involving an amount greater than $200,000, including information regarding the Account Debtor’s creditworthiness, the Borrower will promptly so advise the Agent.

(c) The Borrower shall not accept any note or other instrument (except a check or other instrument for the immediate payment of money) with respect to any Account without the Agent’s written consent. If the Agent consents to the acceptance of any such instrument, it shall be considered as evidence of the Account and not payment thereof and the Borrower will promptly deliver such instrument to the Agent, endorsed by the Borrower to the Agent in a manner satisfactory in form and substance to the Agent. Regardless of the form of presentment, demand, notice of protest with respect thereto, the Borrower shall remain liable thereon until such instrument is paid in full.

(d) The Borrower shall notify the Agent promptly of all disputes and claims in excess of $1,000,000 with any Account Debtor, and agrees to settle, contest, or adjust such dispute or claim at no expense to the Agent or any Lender. No discount, credit or allowance shall be granted to any such Account Debtor without the Agent’s prior written consent, except for discounts, credits and allowances made or given in the ordinary course of the Borrower’s business when no Event of Default exists hereunder. The Borrower shall send the Agent a copy of each credit memorandum in excess of $1,000,000 as soon as issued. The Agent may, and at the direction of the Majority Lenders shall, at all times when an Event of Default exists hereunder, settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with Account Debtors for amounts and upon terms which the Agent or the Majority Lenders, as applicable, shall consider advisable and, in all cases, the Agent will credit the Borrower’s Loan Account with only the net amounts received by the Agent in payment of any Accounts.

(e) If an Account Debtor returns any Inventory to the Borrower when no Event of Default exists, then the Borrower shall promptly determine the reason for such return and shall issue a credit memorandum to the Account Debtor in the appropriate amount. The Borrower shall immediately report to the Agent any return involving an amount in excess of $1,000,000. Each such report shall indicate the reasons for the returns and the locations and condition of the returned Inventory. In the event any Account Debtor returns Inventory to the Borrower when an Event of Default exists, the Borrower, upon request of the Agent, shall: (i) hold the returned Inventory in trust for the Agent; (ii) segregate all returned Inventory from all of its other property; (iii) dispose of the returned Inventory solely according to the Agent’s written instructions; and (iv) not issue any credits or allowances with respect thereto without the Agent’s prior written consent. All returned Inventory shall be subject to the Agent’s Liens thereon. Whenever any Inventory is returned, the related Account shall be deemed ineligible to the extent of the amount owing by the Account Debtor with respect to such returned Inventory.

(a) The Borrower shall establish a service for collections of Accounts at a Clearing Bank acceptable to the Agent and subject to a Blocked Account Agreement. The Borrower shall instruct all Account Debtors to make all payments directly to the address established for such service. If, notwithstanding such instructions, the Borrower receives any proceeds of Accounts, it shall receive such payments as the Agent’s trustee, and shall immediately deliver such payments to the Agent in their original form duly endorsed in blank or deposit them into a Payment Account, as the Agent may direct. All collections received in any such Payment Account or directly by the Borrower or the Agent, and all funds in any Payment Account or other account to which such collections are deposited shall be subject to the

Borrower’s control at any time prior to the first date, if any, on which either (a) (i) Net Domestic Cash is less than $200,000,000 and (ii) the Loan to Availability Ratio exceeds 50%, or (b) Net Domestic Cash is less than $150,000,000, and following any such date Agent shall be the only Person entitled to give the Clearing Bank instructions directing disposition of funds in such Payment Account or other account to which such collections are deposited without further consent by the Borrower. The Agent or the Agent’s designee may, at any time after the occurrence of an Event of Default, notify Account Debtors that the Accounts have been assigned to the Agent and of the Agent’s security interest therein, and may collect them directly and charge the collection costs and expenses to the Loan Account as a Revolving Loan. So long as an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower, at the Agent’s request, shall execute and deliver to the Agent such documents as the Agent shall require to grant the Agent access to any post office box in which collections of Accounts are received.

(b) If sales of Inventory are made or services are rendered for cash, the Borrower shall immediately deliver to the Agent or deposit into a Payment Account the cash which the Borrower receives.

(c) All payments, including immediately available funds received by the Agent at a bank designated by it, received by the Agent, whether or not on account of Accounts or as proceeds of other Collateral, will be credited to the Loan Account (conditional upon final collection) after allowing one (1) Business Day for collection; provided, however, that such payments shall be deemed to be credited to the Loan Account immediately upon receipt for purposes of (i) determining Availability, (ii) calculating the Unused Line Fee pursuant to Section 3.5, and (iii) calculating the amount of interest accrued thereon solely for purposes of determining the amount of interest to be distributed by the Agent to the Lenders (but not the amount of interest payable by the Borrower).

(d) In the event the Borrower repays all of the Obligations upon the termination of this Agreement or upon acceleration of the Obligations, other than through the Agent’s receipt of payments on account of the Accounts or proceeds of the other Collateral, such payment will be credited (conditional upon final collection) to the Loan Account one (1) Business Day after the Agent’s receipt of such funds.

6.10 Inventory; Perpetual Inventory. The Borrower represents and warrants to the Agent and the Lenders and agrees with the Agent and the Lenders that all of the Inventory owned by the Borrower is and will be held for sale or lease (including sales for scrap of excess or no-movement Inventory), or to be furnished in connection with the rendition of services, in the ordinary course of the Borrower’s business, and is and will be fit for such purposes. The Borrower will keep its Inventory in good and marketable condition, at its own expense. Borrower will not, without the prior written consent of the Agent, acquire or accept any Inventory on consignment or approval. The Borrower agrees that all Inventory produced in the United States will be produced in accordance with the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, as amended, and all rules, regulations, and orders thereunder. The Borrower will conduct a physical count of the Inventory at least once per Fiscal Year, and after and during the continuation of an Event of Default, at such other times as the Agent requests, but not to exceed four times in any Fiscal Year. The Borrower will maintain a perpetual inventory reporting system at all times. The Borrower will not, without the Agent’s written consent, sell any

Inventory on a bill-and-hold, guaranteed sale, sale and return, sale on approval, consignment, or other repurchase or return basis.

6.11 Documents, Instruments, and Chattel Paper. The Borrower represents and warrants to the Agent and the Lenders that (a) all documents, instruments, and chattel paper describing, evidencing, or constituting Collateral, and all signatures and endorsements thereon, are and will be complete, valid, and genuine, and (b) all goods evidenced by such documents, instruments, and chattel paper are and will be owned by the Borrower, free and clear of all Liens other than Permitted Liens.

6.12 Right to Cure. The Agent may, in its discretion, and shall, at the direction of the Majority Lenders, pay any amount or do any act required of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document in order to preserve, protect, maintain or enforce the Obligations, the Collateral or the Agent’s Liens therein, and which the Borrower fails to pay or do, including payment of any judgment against the Borrower, any insurance premium, any warehouse charge, any finishing or processing charge, any landlord’s or bailee’s claim, and any other Lien upon or with respect to the Collateral. All payments that the Agent makes under this Section 6.12 and all out-of-pocket costs and expenses that the Agent pays or incurs in connection with any action taken by it hereunder shall be charged to the Borrower’s Loan Account as a Revolving Loan. Any payment made or other action taken by the Agent under this Section 6.12 shall be without prejudice to any right to assert an Event of Default hereunder and to proceed thereafter as herein provided.

6.13 Power of Attorney. The Borrower hereby appoints the Agent and the Agent’s designee as the Borrower’s attorney, with power: (a) to endorse the Borrower’s name on any checks, notes, acceptances, money orders, or other forms of payment or security that come into the Agent’s or any Lender’s possession; (b) to sign the Borrower’s name on any invoice, bill of lading, warehouse receipt or other document of title relating to any Collateral, on drafts against customers, on assignments of Accounts, on notices of assignment and other public records; (c) to sign the Borrower’s name on any financing statements as may be reasonably deemed necessary or desirable by Agent or any Lender in order to perfect or maintain perfected the Agent’s Liens on any Collateral and to file any such financing statements by electronic means with or without a signature as authorized or required by applicable law or filing procedure; (d) to notify the post office authorities to change the address for delivery of the Borrower’s mail to an address designated by the Agent and to receive, open and dispose of all mail addressed to the Borrower; (e) to send requests for verification of Accounts to customers or Account Debtors; (f) to clear Inventory, through customs in the Borrower’s name, the Agent’s name or the name of the Agent’s designee, and to sign and deliver to customs officials powers of attorney in the Borrower’s name for such purpose; and (g) to do all things necessary to carry out this Agreement; provided, however, that the power of attorney granted under the preceding clauses (a), (b), (d), (f) and (g) shall only be exercisable while an Event of Default exists. The Borrower ratifies and approves all acts of such attorney. None of the Lenders or the Agent nor their attorneys will be liable for any acts or omissions or for any error of judgment or mistake of fact or law unless the result of its own bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct. This power, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable until this Agreement has been terminated and the Obligations have been fully satisfied.

6.14 The Agent’s and Lenders’ Rights, Duties and Liabilities. The Borrower assumes all responsibility and liability arising from or relating to the use, sale or other disposition of the Collateral. The Obligations shall not be affected by any failure of the Agent or any Lender to take any steps to perfect the Agent’s Liens or to collect or realize upon the Collateral, nor shall loss of or damage to the Collateral release the Borrower from any of the Obligations. Following the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default, the Agent may (but shall not be required to), and at the direction of the Majority Lenders shall, without notice to or consent from the Borrower, sue upon or otherwise collect, extend the time for payment of, modify or amend the terms of, compromise or settle for cash, credit, or otherwise upon any terms, grant other indulgences, extensions, renewals, compositions, or releases, and take or omit to take any other action with respect to the Collateral, any security therefor, any agreement relating thereto, any insurance applicable thereto, or any Person liable directly or indirectly in connection with any of the foregoing, without discharging or otherwise affecting the liability of the Borrower for the Obligations or under this Agreement or any other agreement now or hereafter existing between the Agent and/or any Lender and the Borrower.

(k) one or more non-interlocutory judgments, non-interlocutory orders, decrees or arbitration awards is entered against the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary involving in the aggregate liability (to the extent not covered by independent third-party insurance as to which the insurer does not dispute coverage) as to any single or related or unrelated series of transactions, incidents or conditions, of $2,500,000 or more, and the same shall remain unsatisfied or unvacated and unstayed pending appeal for a period of 30 days after the entry thereof;

(l) any loss, theft, damage or destruction of any item or items of (i) Collateral or (ii) other property of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary occurs which materially and adversely affects the property, business, operation or condition of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole and is not adequately covered by insurance;

(n) for any reason other than the failure of the Agent to take any action available to it to maintain perfection of the Agent’s Liens, pursuant to the Loan Documents, any Loan Document ceases to be in full force and effect or any Lien with respect to any material portion of the Collateral intended to be secured thereby ceases to be, or is not, valid, perfected and prior to all other Liens (other than Permitted Liens) or is terminated, revoked or declared void;

(o) (i) an ERISA Event shall occur with respect to a Pension Plan or Multi-employer Plan which has resulted or could reasonably be expected to result in liability of the Borrower under Title IV of ERISA to the Pension Plan, Multi-employer Plan or the PBGC in an aggregate amount in excess of 5% of Adjusted Tangible Net Worth; (ii) the aggregate amount of Unfunded Pension Liability among all Pension Plans at any time exceeds 5% of Adjusted Tangible Net Worth; or (iii) the Borrower or any ERISA Affiliate shall fail to pay when due, after the expiration of any applicable grace period, any installment payment with respect to its withdrawal liability under Section 4201 of ERISA under a Multi-employer Plan in an aggregate amount in excess of 5% of Adjusted Tangible Net Worth; or

11.2 Remedies. (a) If an Event of Default exists, the Agent may, in its discretion, and shall, at the direction of the Majority Lenders, do one or more of the following at any time or times and in any order, without notice to or demand on the Borrower: (i) reduce the Maximum Revolver Amount, or the advance rates against Eligible Accounts used in computing the Borrowing Base, or reduce one or more of the other elements used in computing the Borrowing Base; and (ii) restrict the amount of or refuse to make Revolving Loans; and (iii) restrict or refuse to provide the Letters of Credit or Credit Support. If an Event of Default exists, the Agent shall, at the direction of the Majority Lenders, do one or more of the following, in addition to the actions described in the preceding sentence, at any time or times and in any order, without notice to or demand on the Borrower: (A) terminate the Commitments and this Agreement; (B) declare any or all Obligations to be immediately due and payable; provided, however, that upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Sections 11.1(e), 11.1(f), 11.1(g), or 11.1(h), the Commitments shall automatically and immediately expire and all Obligations shall automatically become immediately due and payable without notice or demand of any kind; and (C) pursue its other rights and remedies under the Loan Documents and applicable law.

(b) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing: (i) the Agent shall have for the benefit of the Lenders, in addition to all other rights of the Agent and the Lenders, the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC; (ii) the Agent may, at any time, take possession of the Collateral and keep it on the Borrower’s premises, at no cost to the Agent or any Lender, or remove any part of it to such other place or places as the Agent may desire, or the Borrower shall, upon the Agent’s demand, at the Borrower’s cost, assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Agent at a place reasonably convenient to the Agent; and (iii) the Agent may sell and deliver any Collateral at public or private sales, for cash, upon credit or otherwise, at such prices and upon such terms as the Agent deems advisable, in its sole discretion, and may, if the Agent deems it reasonable, postpone or adjourn any sale of the Collateral by an announcement at the time and place of sale or of such postponed or adjourned sale without giving a new notice of sale. Without in any way requiring notice to be given in the following manner, the Borrower agrees that any notice by the Agent of sale, disposition or other intended action hereunder or in connection herewith, whether required by the UCC or otherwise, shall constitute reasonable notice to the Borrower if such notice is mailed by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or is delivered personally against receipt, at least five (5) Business Days prior to such action to the Borrower’s address specified in or pursuant to Section 15.8. If any Collateral is sold on terms other than payment in full at the time of sale, no credit shall be given against the Obligations until the Agent or the Lenders receive payment, and if the buyer defaults in payment, the Agent may resell the Collateral without further notice to the Borrower. In the event the Agent seeks to take possession of all or any portion of the Collateral by judicial process, the Borrower irrevocably waives: (A) the posting of any bond, surety or security with respect thereto which might otherwise be required; (B) any demand for possession prior to the commencement of any suit or action to recover the Collateral; and (C) any requirement that the Agent retain possession and not dispose of any Collateral until after trial or final judgment. The Borrower agrees that the Agent has no obligation to preserve rights to the Collateral or marshal any Collateral for the benefit of any Person. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law and by any applicable contract governing the usage thereof, the Agent is hereby granted a license or other right to use, without charge, the Borrower’s labels,

patents, copyrights, name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks (subject to the Borrower’s right to police the proper usage of trademarks and the maintenance of product quality associated therewith), and advertising matter, or any similar property, in completing production of any Collateral that is work-in-process, advertising or selling any Collateral, and the Borrower’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to the Agent’s benefit for such purpose. The proceeds of sale shall be applied first to all expenses of sale, including attorneys’ fees, and then to the Obligations. The Agent will return any excess to the Borrower and the Borrower shall remain liable for any deficiency.

(c) If an Event of Default occurs, the Borrower hereby waives all rights to notice and hearing prior to the exercise by the Agent of the Agent’s rights to repossess the Collateral without judicial process or to reply, attach or levy upon the Collateral without notice or hearing.

12.1 Term and Termination. The term of this Agreement shall end on the Stated Termination Date, or on such earlier date as provided in this Section 12.1. This Agreement shall automatically terminate without any further action of the parties if the Loan Availability Date shall not have occurred on or prior to July 7, 2003. The Agent upon direction from the Majority Lenders may terminate this Agreement at any time after the Loan Availability Date without notice upon the occurrence of an Event of Default. Subject to Section 4.2, Borrower may terminate this Agreement at any time after the Loan Availability Date, subject to payment and satisfaction of all Obligations (including all unpaid principal, accrued interest and any early termination or prepayment fees or penalties). Upon the effective date of termination of this Agreement for any reason whatsoever, all Obligations (including all unpaid principal, accrued interest and any early termination or prepayment fees or penalties) shall become immediately due and payable and the Borrower shall immediately arrange for the cancellation and return of Letters of Credit then outstanding. Notwithstanding the termination of this Agreement, until all Obligations are indefeasibly paid and performed in full in cash, the Borrower shall remain bound by the terms of this Agreement and shall not be relieved of any of its Obligations hereunder, and the Agent and the Lenders shall retain all their rights and remedies hereunder (including the Agent’s Liens in and all rights and remedies with respect to all then existing and after-arising Collateral).

13.1 No Waivers; Cumulative Remedies. No failure by the Agent or any Lender to exercise any right, remedy, or option under this Agreement or any present or future supplement thereto, or in any other agreement between or among the Borrower and the Agent and/or any Lender, or delay by the Agent or any Lender in exercising the same, will operate as a waiver thereof. No waiver by the Agent or any Lender will be effective unless it is in writing, and then only to the extent specifically stated. No waiver by the Agent or the Lenders on any occasion shall affect or diminish the Agent’s and each Lender’s rights thereafter to require strict performance by the Borrower of any provision of this Agreement. The Agent’s and each

Lender’s rights under this Agreement will be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right or remedy which the Agent or any Lender may have.

13.2 Amendments and Waivers. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and no consent with respect to any departure by the Borrower therefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Majority Lenders (or by the Agent at the written request of the Majority Lenders) and the Borrower and then any such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that no such waiver, amendment, or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by all the Lenders and the Borrower and acknowledged by the Agent, do any of the following:

(b) postpone or delay any date fixed by this Agreement or any other Loan Document for any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts due to the Lenders (or any of them) hereunder or under any other Loan Document;

(c) reduce the principal of, or the rate of interest specified herein on any Loan, or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document;

(d) change the percentage of the Commitments or of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Loans which is required for the Lenders or any of them to take any action hereunder;

(e) increase any of the percentages set forth in the definition of the Borrowing Base;

(f) amend this Section or any provision of the Agreement providing for consent or other action by all Lenders;

(h) change the definitions of “Majority Lenders” or “Required Lenders”; or

(i) increase the Maximum Revolver Amount or the Unused Letter of Credit Subfacility.

and, provided further, that (i) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Agent, affect the rights or duties of the Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the Fee Letter may be amended, or rights or privileges thereunder waived, in a writing executed by the parties thereto, and (iii) the Agent may, in its sole discretion and notwithstanding the limitations contained in clauses (e) and (i) above and any other terms of this Agreement, make Revolving Loans (including Agent Advances) in an amount not to exceed 5% of the Borrowing Base.

(a) Any Lender may, with the written consent of the Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), after consultation with the Borrower, assign and delegate to one or more Eligible Assignees (provided that no written consent of the Agent shall be required in connection with any assignment and delegation by a Lender to an Affiliate of such Lender) (each an “Assignee”) all, or any ratable part of all, of the Loans, the Commitments and the other rights and obligations of such Lender hereunder, in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 (provided that, unless an assignor Lender has assigned and delegated all of its Loans and Commitments, no such assignment and/or delegation shall be permitted unless, after giving effect thereto, such assignor Lender retains a Commitment in a minimum amount of $5,000,000); provided, however, that the Borrower and the Agent may continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with the interest so assigned to an Assignee until (i) written notice of such assignment, together with payment instructions, addresses and related information with respect to the Assignee, shall have been given to the Borrower and the Agent by such Lender and the Assignee; (ii) such Lender and its Assignee shall have delivered to the Borrower and the Agent an Assignment and Acceptance in the form of Exhibit D (“Assignment and Acceptance”) and (iii) the assignor Lender or Assignee has paid to the Agent a processing fee in the amount of $4,000.

(b) From and after the date that the Agent notifies the assignor Lender that it has received an executed Assignment and Acceptance and payment of the above-referenced processing fee, (i) the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations, including, but not limited to, the obligation to participate in Letters of Credit and Credit Support have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender under the Loan Documents, and (ii) the assignor Lender shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto).

(c) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the assigning Lender thereunder and the Assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other Loan Document furnished pursuant hereto or the attachment, perfection, or priority of any Lien granted by the Borrower to the Agent or any Lender in the Collateral; (ii) such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of the Borrower or the performance or observance by the Borrower of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document furnished pursuant hereto; (iii) such Assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such Assignee will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent, such assigning Lender or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall

deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (v) such Assignee appoints and authorizes the Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to the Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers, including the discretionary rights and incidental power, as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vi) such Assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender.

(d) Immediately upon each Assignee’s making its processing fee payment under the Assignment and Acceptance, this Agreement shall be deemed to be amended to the extent, but only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of the Assignee and the resulting adjustment of the Commitments arising therefrom. The Commitment allocated to each Assignee shall reduce such Commitments of the assigning Lender pro tanto.

(e) Any Lender may at any time sell to one or more commercial banks, financial institutions, or other Persons not Affiliates of the Borrower (a “Participant”) participating interests in any Loans, the Commitment of that Lender and the other interests of that Lender (the “originating Lender”) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; provided, however, that (i) the originating Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) the originating Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the Borrower and the Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with the originating Lender in connection with the originating Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and (iv) no Lender shall transfer or grant any participating interest under which the Participant has rights to approve any amendment to, or any consent or waiver with respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and all amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation; except that, if amounts outstanding under this Agreement are due and unpaid, or shall have been declared or shall have become due and payable upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of set-off in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement to the same extent and subject to the same limitation as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement.

(f) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, any Lender may at any time create a security interest in, or pledge, all or any portion of its rights under and interest in this Agreement in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the FRB or U.S. Treasury Regulation 31 CFR §203.14, and such Federal Reserve Bank may enforce such pledge or security interest in any manner permitted under applicable law.

14.1 Appointment and Authorization. Each Lender hereby designates and appoints Bank as its Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes the Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document,

together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Agent agrees to act as such on the express conditions contained in this Article 14. The provisions of this Article 14 are solely for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders and the Borrower shall have no rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions contained herein. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, the Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall the Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” in this Agreement with reference to the Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties. Except as expressly otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Agent shall have and may use its sole discretion with respect to exercising or refraining from exercising any discretionary rights or taking or refraining from taking any actions which the Agent is expressly entitled to take or assert under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including (a) the determination of the applicability of ineligibility criteria with respect to the calculation of the Borrowing Base, (b) the making of Agent Advances pursuant to Section 2.2(i), and (c) the exercise of remedies pursuant to Section 11.2, and any action so taken or not taken shall be deemed consented to by the Lenders.

14.2 Delegation of Duties. The Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects as long as such selection was made without gross negligence or willful misconduct.

14.3 Liability of Agent. None of the Agent-Related Persons shall (i) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct), or (ii) be responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Borrower, or any officer thereof, contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for any failure of the Borrower or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Subsidiaries or Affiliates.

14.4 Reliance by Agent. (a) The Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, statement or other document or conversation

believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Agent. The Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Majority Lenders as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Majority Lenders (or all Lenders if so required by Section 13.2) and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of the Lenders.

(b) For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Section 10.1, each Lender that has executed this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter either sent by the Agent to such Lender for consent, approval, acceptance or satisfaction, or required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to the Lender.

14.5 Notice of Default. The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, unless the Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” The Agent will notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice. The Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be requested by the Majority Lenders in accordance with Section 11; provided, however, that unless and until the Agent has received any such request, the Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable.

14.6 Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that none of the Agent-Related Persons has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by the Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower and its Affiliates, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent-Related Person to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower and its Affiliates, and all applicable bank regulatory laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to the Borrower. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly herein required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Agent, the Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning

the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Borrower which may come into the possession of any of the Agent-Related Persons.

14.7 Indemnification. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Lenders shall indemnify upon demand the Agent-Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), pro rata, from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities as such term is defined in Section 15.11; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to the Agent-Related Persons of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities resulting solely from such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse the Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including Attorney Costs) incurred by the Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that the Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Borrower. The undertaking in this Section shall survive the payment of all Obligations hereunder and the resignation or replacement of the Agent.

14.8 Agent in Individual Capacity. The Bank and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates as though the Bank were not the Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of the Lenders. The Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, the Bank or its Affiliates may receive information regarding the Borrower or its Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of the Borrower or such Subsidiary) and acknowledge that the Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to its Loans, the Bank shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” include the Bank in its individual capacity.

14.9 Successor Agent. The Agent may resign as Agent upon 30 days’ notice to the Lenders and the Borrower, such resignation to be effective upon the acceptance of a successor agent to its appointment as Agent. In the event the Bank sells all of its Commitment and Revolving Loans as part of a sale, transfer or other disposition by the Bank of substantially all of its loan portfolio, the Bank shall resign as Agent and such purchaser or transferee shall become the successor Agent hereunder. If the Agent resigns under this Agreement, subject to the proviso in the preceding sentence, the Majority Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which successor agent shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower. If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of the Agent, the Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders and the Borrower, a successor agent from among the Lenders, which successor agent shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor agent hereunder, such successor agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Agent and the term “Agent” shall mean such successor agent and the retiring Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder as Agent, the

provisions of this Section 14 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement.

14.10 Withholding Tax. (a) If any Lender is a “foreign corporation, partnership or trust” within the meaning of the Code and such Lender claims exemption from, or a reduction of, U.S. withholding tax under Sections 1441 or 1442 of the Code, such Lender agrees with and in favor of the Agent, to deliver to the Agent:

(i) if such Lender claims an exemption from, or a reduction of, withholding tax under a United States tax treaty, properly completed IRS Forms W-8BEN and W8ECI before the payment of any interest in the first calendar year and before the payment of any interest in each third succeeding calendar year during which interest may be paid under this Agreement;

(ii) if such Lender claims that interest paid under this Agreement is exempt from United States withholding tax because it is effectively connected with a United States trade or business of such Lender, two properly completed and executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI before the payment of any interest is due in the first taxable year of such Lender and in each succeeding taxable year of such Lender during which interest may be paid under this Agreement, and IRS Form W-9; and

(iii) such other form or forms as may be required under the Code or other laws of the United States as a condition to exemption from, or reduction of, United States withholding tax.

Such Lender agrees to promptly notify the Agent of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction.

(b) If any Lender claims exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax under a United States tax treaty by providing IRS Form FW-8BEN and such Lender sells, assigns, grants a participation in, or otherwise transfers all or part of the Obligations of the Borrower to such Lender, such Lender agrees to notify the Agent of the percentage amount in which it is no longer the beneficial owner of Obligations of the Borrower to such Lender. To the extent of such percentage amount, the Agent will treat such Lender’s IRS Form W-8BEN as no longer valid.

(c) If any Lender claiming exemption from United States withholding tax by filing IRS Form W-8ECI with the Agent sells, assigns, grants a participation in, or otherwise transfers all or part of the Obligations of the Borrower to such Lender, such Lender agrees to undertake sole responsibility for complying with the withholding tax requirements imposed by Sections 1441 and 1442 of the Code.

(d) If any Lender is entitled to a reduction in the applicable withholding tax, the Agent may withhold from any interest payment to such Lender an amount equivalent to the applicable withholding tax after taking into account such reduction. If the forms or other documentation required by subsection (a) of this Section are not delivered to the Agent, then the

Agent may withhold from any interest payment to such Lender not providing such forms or other documentation an amount equivalent to the applicable withholding tax.

(e) If the IRS or any other Governmental Authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender (because the appropriate form was not delivered, was not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Agent of a change in circumstances which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective, or for any other reason) such Lender shall indemnify the Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Agent as tax or otherwise, including penalties and interest, and including any taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on the amounts payable to the Agent under this Section, together with all costs and expenses (including Attorney Costs). The obligation of the Lenders under this subsection shall survive the payment of all Obligations and the resignation or replacement of the Agent.

(a) The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Agent, at its option and in its sole discretion, to release any Agent’s Lien upon any Collateral (i) upon the termination of the Commitments and payment and satisfaction in full by Borrower of all Loans and reimbursement obligations in respect of Letters of Credit and Credit Support, and the termination of all outstanding Letters of Credit (whether or not any of such obligations are due) and all other Obligations; (ii) constituting property being sold or disposed of if the Borrower certifies to the Agent that the sale or disposition is made in compliance with Section 9.9 (and the Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry); (iii) constituting property in which the Borrower owned no interest at the time the Lien was granted or at any time thereafter; or (iv) constituting property leased to the Borrower under a lease which has expired or been terminated in a transaction permitted under this Agreement. Except as provided above, the Agent will not release any of the Agent’s Liens without the prior written authorization of the Lenders; provided that the Agent may, in its discretion, release the Agent’s Liens on Collateral valued in the aggregate not in excess of $10,000,000 during any one year period without the prior written authorization of the Lenders. Upon request by the Agent or the Borrower at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Agent’s authority to release any Agent’s Liens upon particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 14.11.

(b) Upon receipt by the Agent of any authorization required pursuant to Section 14.11(a) from the Lenders of the Agent’s authority to release any Agent’s Liens upon particular types or items of Collateral, and upon at least five (5) Business Days’ prior written request by the Borrower, the Agent shall (and is hereby irrevocably authorized by the Lenders to) execute such documents as may be necessary to evidence the release of the Agent’s Liens upon such Collateral; provided, however, that (i) the Agent shall not be required to execute any such document on terms which, in the Agent’s opinion, would expose the Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Liens without recourse or warranty, and (ii) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Obligations or any Liens (other than those expressly being released) upon (or obligations of the Borrower in respect of) all interests retained by the Borrower, including the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral.

(c) The Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any of the Lenders to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by the Borrower or is cared for, protected or insured or has been encumbered, or that the Agent’s Liens have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to the Agent pursuant to any of the Loan Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, the Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion given the Agent’s own interest in the Collateral in its capacity as one of the Lenders and that the Agent shall have no other duty or liability whatsoever to any Lender as to any of the foregoing.

14.12 Restrictions on Actions by Lenders; Sharing of Payments. (a) Each of the Lenders agrees that it shall not, without the express consent of all Lenders, and that it shall, to the extent it is lawfully entitled to do so, upon the request of all Lenders, set off against the Obligations, any amounts owing by such Lender to the Borrower or any accounts of the Borrower now or hereafter maintained with such Lender. Each of the Lenders further agrees that it shall not, unless specifically requested to do so by the Agent, take or cause to be taken any action to enforce its rights under this Agreement or against the Borrower, including the commencement of any legal or equitable proceedings, to foreclose any Lien on, or otherwise enforce any security interest in, any of the Collateral.

(b) If at any time or times any Lender shall receive (i) by payment, foreclosure, setoff or otherwise, any proceeds of Collateral or any payments with respect to the Obligations of the Borrower to such Lender arising under, or relating to, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, except for any such proceeds or payments received by such Lender from the Agent pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, or (ii) payments from the Agent in excess of such Lender’s ratable portion of all such distributions by the Agent, such Lender shall promptly (1) turn the same over to the Agent, in kind, and with such endorsements as may be required to negotiate the same to the Agent, or in same day funds, as applicable, for the account of all of the Lenders and for application to the Obligations in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement, or (2) purchase, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in the Obligations owed to the other Lenders so that such excess payment received shall be applied ratably as among the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares; provided, however, that if all or part of such excess payment received by the purchasing party is thereafter recovered from it, those purchases of participations shall be rescinded in whole or in part, as applicable, and the applicable portion of the purchase price paid therefor shall be returned to such purchasing party, but without interest except to the extent that such purchasing party is required to pay interest in connection with the recovery of the excess payment.

14.13 Agency for Perfection. Each Lender hereby appoints each other Lender as agent for the purpose of perfecting the Lenders’ security interest in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC can be perfected only by possession. Should any Lender (other than the Agent) obtain possession of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify the Agent thereof, and, promptly upon the Agent’s request therefor shall deliver such Collateral to the Agent or in accordance with the Agent’s instructions.

14.14 Payments by Agent to Lenders. All payments to be made by the Agent to the Lenders shall be made by bank wire transfer or internal transfer of immediately available funds to each Lender pursuant to wire transfer instructions delivered in writing to the Agent on or prior to the Closing Date (or if such Lender is an Assignee, on the applicable Assignment and Acceptance), or pursuant to such other wire transfer instructions as each party may designate for itself by written notice to the Agent. Concurrently with each such payment, the Agent shall identify whether such payment (or any portion thereof) represents principal, premium or interest on the Revolving Loans or otherwise.

14.15 Concerning the Collateral and the Related Loan Documents. Each Lender authorizes and directs the Agent to enter into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents relating to the Collateral, for the ratable benefit of the Agent and the Lenders. Each Lender agrees that any action taken by the Agent, Majority Lenders or Required Lenders, as applicable, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents relating to the Collateral, and the exercise by the Agent, the Majority Lenders, or the Required Lenders, as applicable, of their respective powers set forth therein or herein, together with such other powers that are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be binding upon all of the Lenders.

14.16 Field Audit and Examination Reports; Disclaimer by Lenders. 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 (each a “Report” and collectively, “Reports”) prepared by the Agent;

(b) expressly agrees and acknowledges that neither the Bank nor the Agent (i) makes any representation or warranty as to the accuracy of any Report, or (ii) shall be liable for any information contained in any Report;

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

(d) agrees to keep all Reports confidential and strictly for its internal use, and not to distribute except to its participants, or use any Report in any other manner; and

(e) without limiting the generality of any other indemnification provision contained in this Agreement, agrees: (i) to hold the Agent and any such other Lender preparing a Report harmless from any action the indemnifying Lender may take or conclusion the indemnifying Lender may reach or draw from any Report in connection with any loans or other credit accommodations that the indemnifying Lender has made or may make to the Borrower, or the indemnifying Lender’s participation in, or the indemnifying Lender’s purchase of, a loan or loans of the Borrower; and (ii) to pay and protect, and indemnify, defend and hold the Agent and any such other Lender preparing a Report harmless from and against, the claims, actions, proceedings, damages, costs, expenses and other amounts (including Attorney Costs) incurred by

the Agent and any such other Lender preparing a Report as the direct or indirect result of any third parties who might obtain all or part of any Report through the indemnifying Lender.

14.17 Relation Among Lenders. The Lenders are not partners or co-venturers, and no Lender shall be liable for the acts or omissions of, or (except as otherwise set forth herein in case of the Agent) authorized to act for, any other Lender.

15.1 Cumulative Remedies; No Prior Recourse to Collateral. The enumeration herein of the Agent’s and each Lender’s rights and remedies is not intended to be exclusive, and such rights and remedies are in addition to and not by way of limitation of any other rights or remedies that the Agent and the Lenders may have under the UCC or other applicable law. The Agent and the Lenders shall have the right, in their sole discretion, to determine which rights and remedies are to be exercised and in which order. The exercise of one right or remedy shall not preclude the exercise of any others, all of which shall be cumulative. The Agent and the Lenders may, without limitation, proceed directly against the Borrower to collect the Obligations without any prior recourse to the Collateral. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Agent or any Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.

15.2 Severability. The illegality or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement or any instrument or agreement required hereunder shall not in any way affect or impair the legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement or any instrument or agreement required hereunder.

(a) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE INTERPRETED AND THE RIGHTS AND LIABILITIES OF THE PARTIES HERETO DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS (AS OPPOSED TO THE CONFLICT OF LAWS PROVISIONS PROVIDED THAT PERFECTION ISSUES WITH RESPECT TO ARTICLE 9 OF THE UCC MAY GIVE EFFECT TO APPLICABLE CHOICE OR CONFLICT OF LAW RULES SET FORTH IN ARTICLE 9 OF THE UCC) OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA; PROVIDED THAT THE AGENT AND THE LENDERS SHALL RETAIN ALL RIGHTS ARISING UNDER FEDERAL LAW.

(b) ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA OR OF THE UNITED STATES FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA, AND BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, EACH OF THE BORROWER, THE AGENT AND THE LENDERS CONSENTS, FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THOSE COURTS. EACH OF THE BORROWER, THE

AGENT AND THE LENDERS IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION, INCLUDING ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OR BASED ON THE GROUNDS OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS, WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE BRINGING OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN SUCH JURISDICTION IN RESPECT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY DOCUMENT RELATED HERETO. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING: (1) THE AGENT AND THE LENDERS SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING AGAINST THE BORROWER OR ITS PROPERTY IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION THE AGENT OR THE LENDERS DEEM NECESSARY OR APPROPRIATE IN ORDER TO REALIZE ON THE COLLATERAL OR OTHER SECURITY FOR THE OBLIGATIONS AND (2) EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ANY APPEALS FROM THE COURTS DESCRIBED IN THE IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING SENTENCE MAY HAVE TO BE HEARD BY A COURT LOCATED OUTSIDE THOSE JURISDICTIONS.

(c) THE BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF ANY AND ALL PROCESS UPON IT AND CONSENTS THAT ALL SUCH SERVICE OF PROCESS MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED MAIL (RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED) DIRECTED TO THE BORROWER AT ITS ADDRESS SET FORTH IN SECTION 15.8 AND SERVICE SO MADE SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE COMPLETED FIVE (5) DAYS AFTER THE SAME SHALL HAVE BEEN SO DEPOSITED IN THE U.S. MAILS. NOTHING CONTAINED HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF AGENT OR THE LENDERS TO SERVE LEGAL PROCESS BY ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW.

15.4 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE BORROWER, THE LENDERS AND THE AGENT EACH WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY, IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR OTHER LITIGATION OF ANY TYPE BROUGHT BY ANY OF THE PARTIES AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY OR ANY AGENT-RELATED PERSON, PARTICIPANT OR ASSIGNEE, WHETHER WITH RESPECT TO CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, OR OTHERWISE. THE BORROWER, THE LENDERS AND THE AGENT EACH AGREE THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE TRIED BY A COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, THE PARTIES FURTHER AGREE THAT THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IS WAIVED BY OPERATION OF THIS SECTION AS TO ANY ACTION, COUNTERCLAIM OR OTHER PROCEEDING WHICH SEEKS, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, TO CHALLENGE THE VALIDITY OR ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY PROVISION HEREOF OR THEREOF. THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.

15.5 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All of the Borrower’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement shall survive the execution, delivery, and acceptance thereof by the parties, notwithstanding any investigation by the Agent or the Lenders or their respective agents.

15.6 Other Security and Guaranties. The Agent, may, without notice or demand and without affecting the Borrower’s obligations hereunder, from time to time: (a) take from any Person and hold collateral (other than the Collateral) for the payment of all or any part of the Obligations and exchange, enforce or release such collateral or any part thereof; and (b) accept and hold any endorsement or guaranty of payment of all or any part of the Obligations and release or substitute any such endorser or guarantor, or any Person who has given any Lien in any other collateral as security for the payment of all or any part of the Obligations, or any other Person in any way obligated to pay all or any part of the Obligations.

15.7 Fees and Expenses. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent, for its benefit, on demand, all costs and expenses that Agent pays or incurs in connection with the negotiation, preparation, syndication, consummation, administration, enforcement, and termination of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, including: (a) reasonable Attorney Costs; (b) costs and reasonable expenses (including attorneys’ and paralegals’ fees and disbursements) for any amendment, supplement, waiver, consent, or subsequent closing in connection with the Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby; (c) costs and reasonable expenses of lien and title searches and title insurance; (d) taxes, fees and other charges for filing financing statements and continuations, and other actions to perfect, protect, and continue the Agent’s Liens (including costs and reasonable expenses paid or incurred by the Agent in connection with the consummation of Agreement); (e) sums paid or incurred to pay any amount or take any action required of the Borrower under the Loan Documents that the Borrower fails to pay or take; (f) costs of appraisals, inspections, and verifications of the Collateral, including travel, lodging, and meals for inspections of the Collateral and the Borrower’s operations by the Agent plus the Agent’s then customary charge for field examinations and audits and the preparation of reports thereof (such charge is currently $825 per day (or portion thereof) for each agent or employee of the Agent with respect to each field examination or audit); (g) costs and reasonable expenses of forwarding loan proceeds, collecting checks and other items of payment, and establishing and maintaining Payment Accounts and lock boxes; (h) costs and reasonable expenses of preserving and protecting the Collateral; and (i) costs and reasonable expenses (including attorneys’ and paralegals’ fees and disbursements which shall include the allocated cost of Agent’s in-house counsel fees and disbursements) paid or incurred to obtain payment of the Obligations, enforce the Agent’s Liens, sell or otherwise realize upon the Collateral, and otherwise enforce the provisions of the Loan Documents, or to defend any claims made or threatened against the Agent arising out of the transactions contemplated hereby (including preparations for and consultations concerning any such matters). The foregoing shall not be construed to limit any other provisions of the Loan Documents regarding costs and expenses to be paid by the Borrower. All of the foregoing costs and expenses shall be charged to the Borrower’s Loan Account as Revolving Loans as described in Section 4.7.

15.8 Notices. Except as otherwise provided herein, all notices, demands and requests that any party is required or elects to give to any other shall be in writing, or by a telecommunications device capable of creating a written record, and any such notice shall become effective (a) upon personal delivery thereof, including, but not limited to, delivery by overnight mail and courier service, (b) four (4) days after it shall have been mailed by United States mail, first class, certified or registered, with postage prepaid, or (c) in the case of notice by such a telecommunications device, when properly transmitted, in each case addressed to the party to be notified as follows:

Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, the Borrower waives presentment, protest and notice of demand or dishonor and protest as to any instrument, notice of intent to accelerate the Obligations and notice of acceleration of the Obligations, as well as any and all other notices to which it might otherwise be entitled. No notice to or demand on the Borrower which the Agent or any Lender may elect to give shall entitle the Borrower to any or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.

15.10 Binding Effect. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the respective representatives, successors, and assigns of the parties hereto; provided, however, that no interest herein may be assigned by the Borrower without prior written consent of the Agent and each Lender. The rights and benefits of the Agent and the Lenders hereunder shall, if such Persons so agree, inure to any party acquiring any interest in the Obligations or any part thereof.

15.11 Indemnity of the Agent and the Lenders by the Borrower. The Borrower agrees to defend, indemnify and hold the Agent-Related Persons, and each Lender and each of its respective officers, directors, employees, counsel, agents and attorneys-in-fact (each, an “Indemnified Person”) harmless from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, charges, expenses and disbursements (including reasonable Attorney Costs of counsel mutually acceptable to the Borrower and the applicable Indemnified Person) of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time (including at any time following repayment of the Loans and the termination, resignation or replacement of the Agent or replacement of any Lender) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such Person in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, or the transactions contemplated hereby, or any action taken or omitted by any such Person under or in connection with any of the foregoing, including with respect to any investigation, litigation or proceeding (including any Insolvency Proceeding or appellate proceeding) related to or arising out of this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or the Loans or the use of the proceeds thereof, whether or not any Indemnified Person is a party thereto (all the foregoing, collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided, that the Borrower shall have no obligation hereunder to any Indemnified Person with respect to Indemnified Liabilities resulting solely from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person. The agreements in this Section shall survive payment of all other Obligations.

15.12 Limitation of Liability. No claim may be made by the Borrower, any Lender or other Person against the Agent, any Lender, or the affiliates, directors, officers, officers, employees, or agents of any of them for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages in respect of any claim for breach of contract or any other theory of liability arising out of or related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith, and the Borrower and each Lender hereby waive, release and agree not to sue upon any claim for such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.

15.13 Final Agreement. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are intended by the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders to be the final, complete, and exclusive expression of the agreement between them. This Agreement supersedes any and all prior oral or written agreements relating to the subject matter hereof. No modification, rescission, waiver, release, or amendment of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be made, except by a written agreement signed by the Borrower and a duly authorized officer of each of the Agent and the requisite Lenders.

15.14 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, and by the Agent, each Lender and the Borrower in separate counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same agreement; signature pages may be detached from multiple separate counterparts and attached to a single counterpart so that all signature pages are physically attached to the same document.

15.15 Captions. The captions contained in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only, are without substantive meaning and should not be construed to modify, enlarge, or restrict any provision.

15.16 Right of Setoff. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, if an Event of Default exists or the Loans have been accelerated, each Lender is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to the Borrower, any such notice being waived by the Borrower to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held by, and other indebtedness at any time owing by, such Lender to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all Obligations owing to such Lender, now or hereafter existing, irrespective of whether or not the Agent or such Lender shall have made demand under this Agreement or any Loan Document and although such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, NO LENDER SHALL EXERCISE ANY RIGHT OF SET-OFF, BANKER’S LIEN, OR THE LIKE AGAINST ANY DEPOSIT ACCOUNT OR PROPERTY OF THE BORROWER HELD OR MAINTAINED BY SUCH LENDER WITHOUT THE PRIOR WRITTEN UNANIMOUS CONSENT OF THE LENDERS; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT, NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY IN THIS AGREEMENT, THE BANK MAY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, WITHOUT THE CONSENT OF THE AGENT OR ANY OTHER LENDER, EXERCISE ANY RIGHT OF SET-OFF, BANKER’S LIEN, LIEN OR THE LIKE AGAINST ANY CASH COLLATERAL OR CASH EQUIVALENTS OF THE BORROWER HELD OR MAINTAINED BY THE BANK, AND SUBJECT TO A LIEN IN FAVOR OF THE BANK PERMITTED UNDER CLAUSE (L) OF THE DEFINITION OF “PERMITTED LIENS,” FOR APPLICATION AGAINST ANY AND ALL OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARENT AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES IN RESPECT OF BANK PRODUCTS, LETTERS OF CREDIT AND OTHER FINANCIAL ACCOMMODATIONS PROVIDED FROM TIME TO TIME BY THE BANK.

(a) The Borrower shall be liable for all amounts due to the Agent and/or any Lender under this Agreement, regardless of which Borrower actually receives Loans or other extensions of credit hereunder or the amount of such Loans received or the manner in which the Agent and/or such Lender accounts for such Loans or other extensions of credit on its books and records. The Borrower’s Obligations with respect to Loans made to it, and the Borrower’s Obligations arising as a result of the joint and several liability of the Borrower hereunder, with respect to Loans made to the other Borrower hereunder, shall be separate and distinct obligations, but all such Obligations shall be primary obligations of the Borrower.

(b) The Borrower’s Obligations arising as a result of the joint and several liability of the Borrower hereunder with respect to Loans or other extensions of credit made to the other Borrower hereunder shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be unconditional irrespective of (i) the validity or enforceability, avoidance or subordination of the Obligations of the other Borrower or of any promissory note or other document evidencing all or any part of the Obligations of the other Borrower, (ii) the absence of any attempt to collect the Obligations from the other Borrower, any other guarantor, or any other security therefor, or the absence of any other action to enforce the same, (iii) the waiver, consent, extension, forbearance or granting of any indulgence by the Agent and/or any Lender with respect to any provision of any instrument

evidencing the Obligations of the other Borrower, or any part thereof, or any other agreement now or hereafter executed by the other Borrower and delivered to the Agent and/or any Lender, (iv) the failure by the Agent and/or any Lender to take any steps to perfect and maintain its security interest in, or to preserve its rights to, any security or collateral for the Obligations of the other Borrower, (v) the Agent’s and/or any Lender’s election, in any proceeding instituted under the Bankruptcy Code, of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, (vi) any borrowing or grant of a security interest by the other Borrower, as debtor-in-possession under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code, (vii) the disallowance of all or any portion of the Agent’s and/or any Lender’s claim(s) for the repayment of the Obligations of the other Borrower under Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code, or (viii) any other circumstances which might constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor or of the other Borrower. With respect to the Borrower’s Obligations arising as a result of the joint and several liability of the Borrower hereunder with respect to Loans or other extensions of credit made to either of the other Borrower hereunder, the Borrower waives, until the Obligations shall have been paid in full and the Loan Agreement shall have been terminated, any right to enforce any right of subrogation or any remedy which the Agent and/or any Lender now has or may hereafter have against the Borrower, any endorser or any guarantor of all or any part of the Obligations, and any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security or collateral given to the Agent and/or any Lender to secure payment of the Obligations or any other liability of the Borrower to the Agent and/or any Lender.

Upon any Event of Default, the Agent may proceed directly and at once, without notice, against the Borrower to collect and recover the full amount, or any portion of the Obligations, without first proceeding against the other Borrower or any other Person, or against any security or collateral for the Obligations. The Borrower consents and agrees that the Agent shall be under no obligation to marshal any assets in favor of the Borrower or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations.

15.18 Contribution and Indemnification among the Borrowers. Each Borrower is obligated to repay the Obligations as joint and several obligors under this Agreement. To the extent that any Borrower shall, under this Agreement as a joint and several obligor, repay any of the Obligations constituting Loans made to another Borrower hereunder or other Obligations incurred directly and primarily by any other Borrower (an “Accommodation Payment”), then the Borrower making such Accommodation Payment shall be entitled to contribution and indemnification from, and be reimbursed by, each of the other Borrowers in an amount, for each of such other Borrowers, equal to a fraction of such Accommodation Payment, the numerator of which fraction is such other Borrower’s “Allocable Amount” (as defined below) and the denominator of which is the sum of the Allocable Amounts of all of the Borrowers. As of any date of determination, the “Allocable Amount” of each Borrower shall be equal to the maximum amount of liability for Accommodation Payments which could be asserted against such Borrower hereunder without (a) rendering such Borrower “insolvent” within the meaning of Section 101 (31) of the Bankruptcy Code, Section 2 of the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act (“UFTA”) or Section 2 of the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act (“UFCA”), (ii) leaving such Borrower with unreasonably small capital or assets, within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code, Section 4 of the UFTA, or Section 5 of the UFCA, or (iii) leaving such Borrower unable to pay its debts as they become due within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or Section 4 of the UFTA, or Section 5 of the UFCA. All rights and claims of contribution,

indemnification and reimbursement under this section shall be subordinate in right of payment to the prior payment in full of the Obligations. The provisions of this section shall, to the extent expressly inconsistent with any provision in any Loan Document, supersede such inconsistent provision.

15.19 Agency of the Parent for each other Borrower. AMDISS hereby irrevocably appoints the Parent as its agent for all purposes relevant to this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents, including the giving and receipt of notices and execution and delivery of all documents, instruments and certificates contemplated herein and all modifications hereto. Any acknowledgement, consent, direction, certification or other action which might otherwise be valid or effective only if given or taken by both of the Borrowers or each acting singly, shall be valid and effective if given or taken only by the Parent, whether or not AMDISS joins therein.

15.20 No Novation. This Agreement does not extinguish the obligations for the payment of money outstanding under the Original Agreement or discharge or release the obligations or the liens or priority of any mortgage, pledge, security agreement or any other security therefor. Nothing herein contained shall be construed as a substitution or novation of the obligations outstanding under the Original Agreement or instruments securing the same, which shall remain in full force and effect, except as modified hereby or by instruments executed concurrently herewith. Nothing expressed or implied in this Agreement shall be construed as a release or other discharge of Borrower or any guarantor from any of its obligations or liabilities under the Original Agreement or any of the security agreements, pledge agreements, mortgages, guaranties or other loan documents executed in connection therewith. Borrower hereby (i) confirms and agrees that each Loan Document to which it is a party is, and shall continue to be, in full force and effect and is hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects except that on and after the Closing Date all references in any such Loan Document to “the Loan Agreement”, “thereto”, “thereof”, “thereunder” or words of like import referring to the Original Agreement shall mean the Original Agreement as amended and restated by this Agreement; and (ii) confirms and agrees that to the extent that any such Loan Document purports to assign or pledge to the Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, or to grant to the Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders a security interest in or lien on, any collateral as security for the Obligations of Borrower from time to time existing in respect of the Original Agreement, such pledge, assignment or grant of the security interest or lien is hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have entered into this Agreement on the date first above written.
