Subject to and upon the terms and conditions contained herein, each Revolving Lender severally (and not jointly) agrees to make its Pro Rata Share of Revolving Loans to Borrowers from time to time until the Commitment Termination Date in amounts requested by Administrative Borrower on behalf of the applicable Borrower up to the aggregate amount outstanding for all Revolving Lenders at any time and after giving effect to the requested Revolving Loan such that the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Loans and the Letter of Credit Obligations outstanding at such time shall not exceed the required amount of Adjusted Excess Availability. The Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loan of any Revolving Lender shall not at any time exceed its separate Revolving Commitment. Until the Commitment Termination Date, Borrowers may borrow, repay and reborrow under this Section 2.1(a)(i)(1).

(2) Each Revolving Loan shall be made on notice by Administrative Borrower on behalf of the applicable Borrower to one of the representatives of Working Capital Agent identified on Schedule 2.1 at the address specified therein.

Each such notice (each a “Notice of Borrowing”) must be given in writing (by telecopy or overnight courier) substantially in the form of Exhibit F, and shall include the information required in such Exhibit and such other information as may be required by Working Capital Agent.

(ii) Except in Agents’ discretion, with the consent of all Revolving Lenders, or as otherwise provided herein, the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Loans and the Letter of Credit Obligations outstanding at any time shall not exceed Adjusted Excess Availability.

(iii) In the event that the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Loans and the Letter of Credit Obligations outstanding at any time exceed Adjusted Excess Availability (an “Overadvance”), such event shall not limit, waive or otherwise affect any rights of Agents or Lenders in such circumstances or on any future occasions and Borrowers shall, upon demand by Agents, which may be made at any time or from time to time, immediately repay to Working Capital Agent the entire amount of any such excess(es) for which payment is demanded.

(b) Term Loan. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and in reliance upon the representations and warranties of the Borrowers and Guarantors contained herein: (i) each Term B-1 Lender severally and not jointly agrees to lend, on the Amendment Effective Date, to the Borrowers the amount set forth opposite such Term B-1 Lender’s name in Schedule 1.1 under the heading “Term B-1 Loans Commitments” (such amount being referred to herein as such Term B-1 Lender’s “Term B-1 Commitment”); and (ii) each Term B-2 Lender severally and not jointly agrees to lend, on the Amendment Effective Date, to the Borrowers the amount set forth opposite such Term B-2 Lender’s name in Schedule 1.1 under the heading “Term B-2 Loans Commitments” (such amount being referred to herein as such Term B-2 Lender’s “Term B-2 Commitment”).

(d) Optional Prepayment.

(i) The Borrowers may at any time or from time to time, and subject to payment of London Interbank Offered Rate breakage costs in accordance with Section 3.3(d), voluntarily prepay the Revolving Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty or any reduction in the Revolving Commitment except as provided in Section 3.2.

The payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Together with each prepayment under this Section 2.1(d), the Borrowers shall pay any amounts required pursuant to Sections 3.2 and 3.3.

2.2 Letters of Credit.

Concurrently with the delivery of the Applicable Margin Certificate herein referenced, Administrative Borrower shall deliver to Working Capital Agent a certificate, signed by its chief financial officer, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for the continuance of, or any change in, the rates for the Letter of Credit Fees. Failure to deliver such Applicable Margin Certificate within five (5) days of the date such certificate is required to be delivered pursuant to Section 7.1(a)(iii) shall, in addition to any other remedy provided for in this Agreement, result in an increase in the rates in the Letter of Credit Fees to the highest level set forth in the foregoing grid, until the delivery of the Applicable Margin Certificate demonstrating that such an increase is not required. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time any reduction in the rates applicable for the Letter of Credit Fees is to be implemented, that reduction shall be deferred until the date on which such Event of Default is waived or cured.

(c) Borrowers shall give Working Capital Agent at least three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice requesting the incurrence of any Letter of Credit Obligation.

Each drawing under any Letter of Credit or other amount payable in connection therewith when due shall constitute a request by the Borrower for whose account such Letter of Credit was issued to Working Capital Agent for a Prime Rate Loan in the amount of such drawing or other amount then due, and shall be made by Working Capital Agent on behalf of Revolving Lenders as a Revolving Loan (or Protective Advance, as the case may be). The date of such Loan shall be the date of the drawing or as to other amounts, the due date therefor. Any payments made by or on behalf of Working Capital Agent or any Lender to Issuing Bank and/or related parties in connection with any Letter of Credit shall constitute additional Revolving Loans to such Borrower pursuant to this Section 2 (or Protective Advances as the case may be).

Each Borrower and Guarantor assumes all risks with respect to the acts or omissions of the drawer under or beneficiary of any Letter of Credit and for such purposes the drawer or beneficiary shall be deemed such Borrower’s agent. Each Borrower and Guarantor assumes all risks for, and agrees to pay, all foreign, Federal, State and local taxes, duties and levies relating to any goods subject to any Letter of Credit or any documents, drafts or acceptances thereunder. Each Borrower and Guarantor hereby releases and holds the Issuing Bank, Working Capital Agent and Revolving Lenders harmless from and against any acts, waivers, errors, delays or omissions, whether caused by any Borrower, Guarantor, by any issuer or correspondent or otherwise with respect to or relating to any Letter of Credit, except for the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Bank, Working Capital Agent or such Revolving Lender as determined pursuant to a final, non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction. The provisions of this Section 2.2(e) shall survive the payment of Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

Borrowers and Guarantors shall also, at Working Capital Agent’s request, designate Working Capital Agent as the consignee on all bills of lading and other negotiable and non-negotiable documents.

(g) Each Borrower and Guarantor hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs Issuing Bank to name such Borrower or Guarantor as the account party therein and to deliver to Working Capital Agent all instruments, documents and other writings and property received by Issuing Bank pursuant to any Letter of Credit and to accept and rely upon Working Capital Agent’s instructions and agreements with respect to all matters arising in connection with any Letter of Credit or the Letter of Credit Documents with respect thereto. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed or construed to grant any Borrower or Guarantor any right or authority to pledge the credit of Working Capital Agent or any Lender in any manner. Borrowers and Guarantors shall be bound by any reasonable interpretation made in good faith by Working Capital Agent, or Issuing Bank under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or any documents, drafts or acceptances thereunder, notwithstanding that such interpretation may be inconsistent with any instructions of any Borrower or Guarantor.

(h) Immediately upon the issuance or amendment of any Letter of Credit, each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased and received, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation to the extent of such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the liability with respect to such Letter of Credit and the obligations of Borrowers with respect thereto (including all Letter of Credit Obligations with respect thereto). Each Revolving Lender shall absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably assume, as primary obligor and not as surety, and be obligated to pay to Issuing Bank therefor and discharge when due, its Pro Rata Share of all of such obligations arising under such Letter of Credit. Without limiting the scope and nature of each Revolving Lender’s participation in any Letter of Credit, to the extent that Issuing Bank has not been reimbursed or otherwise paid as required hereunder or under any such Letter of Credit, each such Revolving Lender shall pay to Issuing Bank its Pro Rata Share of such unreimbursed drawing or other amounts then due to Issuing Bank in connection therewith. If it shall be illegal or unlawful for Borrowers to incur Revolving Loans because of an Event of Default described in Sections 10.1(f), 10.1(g) or 10.1(h) or otherwise or if it shall be illegal or unlawful for any Revolving Lender to be deemed to have assumed a ratable share of the reimbursement obligations owed to an Issuing Bank, or if the Issuing Bank is a Revolving Lender, then (A) immediately and without further action whatsoever, each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased from Working Capital Agent (or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be) an undivided interest and participation equal to such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share (based on the Maximum Credit) of the Letter of Credit Obligations in respect of all Letters of Credit then outstanding and (B) thereafter, immediately upon issuance of any Letter of Credit, each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased from Working Capital Agent (or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be) an undivided interest and participation in such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share (based on the Maximum Credit) of the Letter of Credit Obligations with respect to such Letter of Credit on the date of such issuance. Each Revolving Lender shall fund its participation in all payments or disbursements made under the Letters of Credit in the same manner as provided in this Agreement with respect to Revolving Loans.

(i) The obligations of Borrowers to pay each Letter of Credit Obligations and the obligations of Revolving Lenders to make payments to Working Capital Agent for the account of Issuing Bank with respect to Letters of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable without necessity of presentment, demand, protest or other formalities, and the obligations of each Revolving Lender to make payments to the Issuing Bank with respect to Letters of Credit shall be unconditional and irrevocable. Such obligations of the Borrowers and Revolving Lenders shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms hereof under all circumstances, including, without limitation: (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement or any other Financing Agreement, (ii) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that any Borrower or any of their respective Affiliates or any Revolving Lender may at any time have against a beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Persons or entities for whom any such transferee may be acting), Issuing Bank, Working Capital Agent, any Revolving Lender, or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the Letter of Credit, the transactions contemplated herein or therein or any unrelated transaction (including any underlying transaction between any Borrower or any of their respective Affiliates and the beneficiary for which the Letter of Credit was procured), (iii) any draft, demand, certificate or any other document presented under any Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iv) payment by any Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof against presentation of a demand, draft or certificate or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or guaranty, (v) the failure to satisfy any other condition set forth in Section 4 (including whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) or (vi) any other event or circumstance that is similar to the foregoing. Furthermore, as between Working Capital Agent, Issuing Bank, any Revolving Lender and the Borrowers, Borrowers assume all risk of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of any Letter of Credit by beneficiaries, of any Letter of Credit. If such amount is not made available by a Revolving Lender when due, Working Capital Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount was due until the date such amount is paid to Working Capital Agent at the interest rate then payable by any Borrower in respect of Loans that are Prime Rate Loans. Any such reimbursement shall not relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of Borrowers to reimburse Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit or make any other payment in connection therewith.

(j) (i) If a Borrower is required to provide cash collateral for any Letter of Credit Obligations pursuant to this Agreement, including Section 10.2 of this Agreement, prior to the Commitment Termination Date, such Borrower will pay to Working Capital Agent for the ratable benefit of itself and Revolving Lenders cash or Cash Equivalents in an amount equal to one hundred five (105%) percent of the amount of the Letter of Credit Obligations plus the amount of any fees and expenses payable in connection therewith through the end of the latest expiration date of such Letter of Credit Obligations. Such funds or Cash Equivalents shall be held by Working Capital Agent in a cash collateral account (the “Cash Collateral Account”) maintained at a bank or financial institution acceptable to Working Capital Agent. The Cash Collateral Account shall be in the name of the applicable Borrower and shall be pledged to, and subject to the control of, Working Capital Agent, for the benefit of Working Capital Agent and Revolving Lenders, in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Working Capital Agent. Each Borrower hereby pledges and grants to Working Capital Agent, on behalf of itself and Lenders, a security interest in all such funds and Cash Equivalents held in the Cash Collateral Account from time to time and all proceeds thereof, as security for the payment of all amounts due in respect of the Letter of Credit Obligations and other Obligations, whether or not then due. This Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law.

(ii) If any Letter of Credit Obligations, whether or not then due and payable, shall for any reason be outstanding on the Commitment Termination Date, Borrowers shall either (A) provide cash collateral therefor in the manner described above, or (B) cause all such Letters of Credit and guaranties thereof, if any, to be canceled and returned, or (C) deliver a stand-by letter (or letters) of credit in guaranty of such Letter of Credit Obligations, which stand-by letter (or letters) of credit shall be of like tenor and duration (plus thirty (30) additional days) as, and in an amount equal to one hundred five (105%) percent of the amount of the Letter of Credit Obligations plus the amount of any fees and expenses payable in connection therewith through the end of the latest expiration date of such Letter of Credit Obligations, and shall be issued by a Person, and shall be subject to such terms and conditions, as are be satisfactory to Working Capital Agent in its sole discretion.

(iii) From time to time after funds are deposited in the Cash Collateral Account by any Borrower, whether before or after the Commitment Termination Date, Working Capital Agent may apply such funds or Cash Equivalents then held in the Cash Collateral Account to the payment of any amounts, and in such order as Working Capital Agent may elect, as shall be or shall become due and payable by such Borrower to Working Capital Agent and Lenders with respect to such Letter of Credit Obligations of such Borrower and, upon the satisfaction in full of all Letter of Credit Obligations of such Borrower, to any other Obligations of any Borrower then due and payable.

(iv) No Borrower nor any Person claiming on behalf of or through any Borrower shall have any right to withdraw any of the funds or Cash Equivalents held in the Cash Collateral Account. Upon the termination of any Letter of Credit and the payment of all amounts payable by Borrowers to Working Capital Agent and Revolving Lenders in respect thereof, the Working Capital Agent shall promptly pay to the Borrowers unless otherwise required by law such amounts in excess of 105% of the then extant Letter of Credit Obligations. Interest earned on deposits in the Cash Collateral Account shall be for the account of the Borrowers and held as additional collateral. Upon payment in full in cash of all Obligations and the termination of all Commitments to lend hereunder, the Working Capital Agent shall return to the Borrowers any accrued interest not otherwise applied to the payment of the Obligations, unless otherwise required by law.

(k) Unless otherwise specified herein, the amount of a Letter of Credit at any time shall be deemed to be the stated amount of such Letter of Credit in effect at such time; provided, however, that with respect to any Letter of Credit that, by its terms or the terms of any Letter of Credit Document, provides for one or more automatic increases in the stated amount thereof, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be the maximum stated amount of such Letter of Credit after giving effect to all such increases, whether or not such maximum stated amount is in effect at such time.

SECTION 3 INTEREST AND FEES

3.1 Interest.

(a) Borrowers shall pay to Working Capital Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Loans at the Interest Rate as provided in clause (d) of this Section 3.1; provided, however, all interest accruing hereunder on and after the date of any Event of Default or the Commitment Termination Date shall be payable on demand.

(b) Administrative Borrower on behalf of the applicable Borrower may from time to time (i) request that Prime Rate Loans be converted to Eurodollar Rate Loans, (ii) request to convert any Eurodollar Rate Loan to a Prime Rate Loan upon payment of an administrative fee of $250 and subject to payment of Eurodollar breakage costs in accordance with Section 3.3(c) if such conversion is made prior to the expiration of the Interest Period applicable thereto, or (iii) request that all or any portion of any Eurodollar Rate Loan be continued as a Eurodollar Rate Loan upon the expiration of the applicable Interest Period and the succeeding Interest Period of that continued Loan shall commence on the first day after the last day of the Interest Period of the Loan to be continued. Any Loan or group of Loans having the same proposed Interest Period to be made or continued as, or converted into, a Eurodollar Rate Loan must be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of such amount. Such request must be made by 1 p.m. (Eastern time) on the third Business Day prior to (i) the date of any proposed Loan which is to bear interest at the Eurodollar Rate, (ii) the end of each Interest Period with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Loans to be continued as such, or (iii) the date on which Administrative Borrower wishes to convert any Prime Rate Loan to a Eurodollar Rate Loan for an Interest Period designated by Administrative Borrower in such election. Any request by Administrative Borrower on behalf of a Borrower for Eurodollar Rate Loans or to convert Prime Rate Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans or to continue any existing Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be irrevocable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Agents and Lenders shall not be required to purchase United States Dollar deposits in the London interbank market or other applicable Eurodollar Rate market to fund any Eurodollar Rate Loans, but the provisions hereof shall be deemed to apply as if Agents and Lenders had purchased such deposits to fund the Eurodollar Rate Loans. Administrative Borrower on behalf of the applicable Borrower must make such election by notice to Working Capital Agent in writing, by telecopy or overnight courier. In the case of any conversion or continuation, such election must be made pursuant to a written notice (a “Notice of Conversion/Continuation”) substantially in the form of Exhibit G.

(c) Any Eurodollar Rate Loans shall automatically convert to Prime Rate Loans upon the last day of the applicable Interest Period, unless Working Capital Agent has received and approved a request to continue such Eurodollar Rate Loan at least three (3) Business Days prior to such last day in accordance with the terms hereof. Any Eurodollar Rate Loans shall, at Working Capital Agent’s option, upon notice by Working Capital Agent to Parent, be subsequently converted to Prime Rate Loans in the event that this Agreement shall terminate or not be renewed. Borrowers shall pay to Working Capital Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, upon demand by Working Capital Agent (or Working Capital Agent may, at its option, charge any loan account of any Borrower) any amounts required to compensate any Lender or Participant for any loss (including loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by such person, as a result of the conversion of Eurodollar Rate Loans to Prime Rate Loans pursuant to any of the foregoing.

(d) Interest on each Loan shall be paid in arrears on each Interest Payment Date and shall be calculated on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year and actual days elapsed. Interest shall also be paid on the date of any payment or prepayment of Term Loans in full and Revolving Loans on the Commitment Termination Date. The interest rate on non-contingent Obligations (other than Eurodollar Rate Loans) shall increase or decrease by an amount equal to each increase or decrease in the Prime Rate effective on the first day of the month after any change in such Prime Rate is announced based on the Prime Rate in effect on the last day of the month in which any such change occurs. In no event shall charges constituting interest payable by Borrowers to Agents and Lenders exceed the maximum amount or the rate permitted under any applicable law or regulation, and if any such part or provision of this Agreement is in contravention of any such law or regulation, such part or provision shall be deemed amended to conform thereto.

3.2 Fees.

(a) Borrowers shall pay to Working Capital Agent, for the account of Revolving Lenders a monthly unused line fee at a rate equal to the percentage (on a per annum basis) of 0.375% calculated upon the amount by which the Maximum Credit exceeds the average daily principal balance of the outstanding Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit during the immediately preceding month (or part thereof). Such fee shall be payable on the first Business Day of each month in arrears and on the Commitment Termination Date and shall be calculated based on a three hundred sixty (360) day year and actual days elapsed.

(b) On or prior to the Maturity Date, if Borrowers voluntarily prepay all or any portion of the Term Loan, Borrowers shall pay to Working Capital Agent, for the benefit of Term Lenders as liquidated damages and compensation for the costs of being prepared to make funds available hereunder, a fee (“Early Prepayment Fee”) in an amount equal to the Applicable Percentage (as defined below) multiplied by the principal amount of the Term Loan accelerated or prepaid. As used herein, the term “Applicable Percentage” shall mean (i) four percent (4%) in the case of prepayment or acceleration on or prior to the first anniversary of the Amendment Effective Date; (ii) three percent (3%) in the case of prepayment or acceleration after the first anniversary of the Restatement Effective Date but on or prior to the second anniversary thereof; (iii) two percent (2%) in the case of prepayment or acceleration after the second anniversary of the Restatement Effective Date but on or prior to the third anniversary thereof and (iv) zero percent (0%) in the case of prepayment or acceleration after the third anniversary thereof. The Credit Parties agree that the Applicable Percentage is a reasonable calculation of Lenders’ lost profits in view of the difficulties and impracticality of determining actual damages resulting from an early payment of the Term Loan.

(c) Borrowers agree to pay to Working Capital Agent or Term Loan Agent the other fees and amounts set forth in the Fee Letter in the amounts and at all times specified therein.

3.3 Changes in Laws and Increased Costs of Loans.

(a) If after the date hereof, either (i) any change in, or in the interpretation of, any law or regulation is introduced, including, without limitation, with respect to reserve requirements, applicable to any Lender or any banking or financial institution from whom any Lender borrows funds or obtains credit (a “Funding Bank”), or (ii) a Funding Bank or any Lender complies with any future guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority or (iii) a Funding Bank, any Lender or Issuing Bank determines that the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof has or would have the effect described below, or a Funding Bank, any Lender or Issuing Bank complies with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, and in the case of any event set forth in this clause (iii), such adoption, change or compliance has or would have the direct or indirect effect of reducing the rate of return on any Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or Issuing Bank could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration the Funding Bank’s or Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender or Issuing Bank to be material, and the result of any of the foregoing events described in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) is or results in an increase in the cost to any Lender or Issuing Bank of funding or maintaining the Loans, the Letters of Credit or its Commitment, then Borrowers and Guarantors shall from time to time upon demand by Working Capital Agent pay to Working Capital Agent additional amounts sufficient to indemnify such Lender, as the case may be, against such increased cost on an after-tax basis (after taking into account applicable deductions and credits in respect of the amount indemnified). A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost shall be submitted to Administrative Borrower by Working Capital Agent or the applicable Lender and shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(b) If prior to the first day of any Interest Period, (i) Working Capital Agent shall have determined in good faith (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrowers and Guarantors) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period, (ii) Working Capital Agent has received notice from the Required Lenders that the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate determined or to be determined for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Lenders of making or maintaining Eurodollar Rate Loans during such Interest Period, or (iii) Dollar deposits in the principal amounts of the Eurodollar Rate Loans to which such Interest Period is to be applicable are not generally available in the London interbank market, Working Capital Agent shall give telecopy or telephonic notice thereof to Administrative Borrower as soon as practicable thereafter, and will also give prompt written notice to Administrative Borrower when such conditions no longer exist. If such notice is given (A) any Eurodollar Rate Loans requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as Prime Rate Loans, (B) any Loans that were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to or continued as Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be converted to or continued as Prime Rate Loans and (C) each outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be converted, on the last day of the then-current Interest Period thereof, to Prime Rate Loans. Until such notice has been withdrawn by Working Capital Agent, no further Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be made or continued as such, nor shall Administrative Borrower on behalf of any Borrower have the right to convert Prime Rate Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans.

(c) Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if the adoption of or any change in any law, treaty, rule or regulation or final, non-appealable determination of an arbitrator or a court or other Governmental Authority or in the interpretation or application thereof occurring after the date hereof shall make it unlawful for Working Capital Agent or any Lender to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans as contemplated by this Agreement, (i) Working Capital Agent or such Lender shall promptly give written notice of such circumstances to Administrative Borrower (which notice shall be withdrawn whenever such circumstances no longer exist), (ii) the commitment of such Lender hereunder to make Eurodollar Rate Loans, continue Eurodollar Rate Loans as such and convert Prime Rate Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans shall forthwith be canceled and, until such time as it shall no longer be unlawful for such Lender to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans, such Lender shall then have a commitment only to make a Prime Rate Loan when a Eurodollar Rate Loan is requested and (iii) such Lender’s Loans then outstanding as Eurodollar Rate Loans, if any, shall be converted automatically to Prime Rate Loans on the respective last days of the then current Interest Periods with respect to such Loans or within such earlier period as required by law. If any such conversion of a Eurodollar Rate Loan occurs on a day which is not the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, Borrowers and Guarantors shall pay to such Lender such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 3.3(d) below.

(d) Borrowers and Guarantors shall jointly and severally indemnify Agents and each Lender and to hold Agents and each Lender harmless from any loss or expense which Agents or such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (i) default by any Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or extension of Eurodollar Rate Loans after Administrative Borrower on behalf of such Borrower has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (ii) default by any Borrower in making any prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan after Administrative Borrower on behalf of such Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, and (iii) the making of a prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans on a day which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. With respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans, such indemnification may include an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (A) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the amount so prepaid, or not so borrowed, converted or extended, for the period from the date of such prepayment or of such failure to borrow, convert or extend to the last day of the applicable Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or extend, the Interest Period that would have commenced on the date of such failure) in each case at the applicable rate of interest for such Eurodollar Rate Loans provided for herein over (B) the amount of interest (as determined by such Agent or such Lender) which would have accrued to such Agent or such Lender on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the interbank Eurodollar market. This covenant shall survive the termination or non-renewal of this Agreement and the payment of the Obligations.

Each Borrower and Guarantor hereby ratifies and approves all financing statements naming Working Capital Agent or its designee as secured party and such Borrower or Guarantor, as the case may be, as debtor with respect to the Collateral (and any amendments with respect to such financing statements) filed by or on behalf of Working Capital Agent prior to the date hereof and ratifies and confirms the authorization of Working Capital Agent to file such financing statements (and amendments, if any). Each Borrower and Guarantor hereby authorizes Working Capital Agent to adopt on behalf of such Borrower and Guarantor any symbol required for authenticating any electronic filing. In the event that the description of the collateral in any financing statement naming Working Capital Agent or its designee as the secured party and any Borrower or Guarantor as debtor includes assets and properties of such Borrower or Guarantor that do not at any time constitute Collateral, whether hereunder, under any of the other Financing Agreements or otherwise, the filing of such financing statement shall nonetheless be deemed authorized by such Borrower or Guarantor to the extent of the Collateral included in such description and it shall not render the financing statement ineffective as to any of the Collateral or otherwise affect the financing statement as it applies to any of the Collateral. In no event shall any Borrower or Guarantor at any time file, or permit or cause to be filed, any correction statement or termination statement with respect to any financing statement (or amendment or continuation with respect thereto) naming Working Capital Agent or its designee as secured party and such Borrower or Guarantor as debtor.

(b) Each Borrower and Guarantor does not have any chattel paper (whether tangible or electronic) or instruments as of the Closing Date, except as set forth on Schedule 5.2(b). In the event that any Borrower or Guarantor shall be entitled to or shall receive any chattel paper or instrument after the date hereof, Borrowers and Guarantors shall promptly notify Working Capital Agent thereof in writing. Promptly upon the receipt thereof by or on behalf of any Borrower or Guarantor (including by any agent or representative), such Borrower or Guarantor shall deliver, or cause to be delivered to Working Capital Agent, all tangible chattel paper and instruments that such Borrower or Guarantor has or may at any time acquire, accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as Working Capital Agent may from time to time specify, in each case except as Working Capital Agent may otherwise agree. At Working Capital Agent’s option, each Borrower and Guarantor shall, or Working Capital Agent may at any time on behalf of any Borrower or Guarantor, cause the original of any such instrument or chattel paper to be conspicuously marked in a form and manner acceptable to Working Capital Agent with the following legend referring to chattel paper or instruments as applicable: “This [chattel paper][instrument] is subject to the security interest of General Electric Capital Corporation in its capacity as Working Capital Agent and any sale, transfer, assignment or encumbrance of this [chattel paper][instrument] violates the rights of such secured party.”

(c) In the event that any Borrower or Guarantor shall at any time hold or acquire an interest in any electronic chattel paper or any “transferable record” (as such term is defined in Section 201 of the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or in Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act as in effect in any relevant jurisdiction), such Borrower or Guarantor shall promptly notify Working Capital Agent thereof in writing. Promptly upon Working Capital Agent’s request, such Borrower or Guarantor shall take, or cause to be taken, such actions as Working Capital Agent may request to give Working Capital Agent control of such electronic chattel paper under Section 9-105 of the UCC and control of such transferable record under Section 201 of the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or, as the case may be, Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, as in effect in such jurisdiction.

(d) Each Borrower and Guarantor does not have any deposit accounts as of the date hereof, except as set forth on Schedule 5.2(d). Borrowers and Guarantors shall not, directly or indirectly, after the date hereof open, establish or maintain any deposit account unless each of the following conditions is satisfied: (i) Working Capital Agent shall have received not less than five (5) Business Days prior written notice of the intention of any Borrower or Guarantor to open or establish such account which notice shall specify in reasonable detail and specificity acceptable to Working Capital Agent the name of the account, the owner of the account, the name and address of the bank at which such account is to be opened or established, the individual at such bank with whom such Borrower or Guarantor is dealing and the purpose of the account, except as to any Store Account opened or established after the date hereof, so long as no Event of Default shall exist or have occurred and be continuing, Working Capital Agent shall only have received such information as to such Store Account on the next monthly report with respect to deposit accounts in accordance with Section 7.1(a) hereof, (ii) the bank where such account is opened or maintained shall be acceptable to Working Capital Agent, and (iii) on or before the opening of such deposit account (other than as to a Store Account so long as no Default or Event of Default shall exist or have occurred and be continuing), such Borrower or Guarantor shall deliver to Working Capital Agent a Deposit Account Control Agreement with respect to such deposit account duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Borrower or Guarantor and the bank at which such deposit account is opened and maintained. At all times the Borrowers and Guarantors shall maintain a Deposit Account Control Agreement in full force and effect with respect to the Concentration Account and the Elavon Deposit Account. The terms of this subsection (d) shall not apply to deposit accounts specifically and exclusively used for payroll, payroll taxes and other employee wage and benefit payments to or for the benefit of any Borrower’s or Guarantor’s salaried employees.

(e) No Borrower or Guarantor owns or holds, directly or indirectly, beneficially or as record owner or both, any investment property, as of the date hereof, or have any investment account, securities account, commodity account or other similar account with any bank or other financial institution or other securities intermediary or commodity intermediary as of the date hereof, in each case except as set forth on Schedule 5.2(e).

(f) In the event that any Borrower or Guarantor shall be entitled to or shall at any time after the date hereof hold or acquire any certificated securities, such Borrower or Guarantor shall promptly endorse, assign and deliver the same to Working Capital Agent, accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as Working Capital Agent may from time to time specify. If any securities, now or hereafter acquired by any Borrower or Guarantor are uncertificated and are issued to such Borrower or Guarantor or its nominee directly by the issuer thereof, such Borrower or Guarantor shall immediately notify Working Capital Agent thereof and shall cause the issuer to agree to comply with instructions from Working Capital Agent as to such securities, without further consent of any Borrower or Guarantor or such nominee.

(g) Borrowers and Guarantors shall not, directly or indirectly, after the date hereof open, establish or maintain any investment account, securities account, commodity account or any other similar account (other than a deposit account) with any securities intermediary or commodity intermediary unless each of the following conditions is satisfied: (A) Working Capital Agent shall have received not less than five (5) Business Days prior written notice of the intention of such Borrower or Guarantor to open or establish such account which notice shall specify in reasonable detail and specificity acceptable to Working Capital Agent the name of the account, the owner of the account, the name and address of the securities intermediary or commodity intermediary at which such account is to be opened or established, the individual at such intermediary with whom such Borrower or Guarantor is dealing and the purpose of the account, (B) the securities intermediary or commodity intermediary (as the case may be) where such account is opened or maintained shall be acceptable to Working Capital Agent, and (C) on or before the opening of such investment account, securities account or other similar account with a securities intermediary or commodity intermediary, such Borrower or Guarantor shall as Working Capital Agent may specify either (i) execute and deliver, and cause to be executed and delivered to Working Capital Agent, an Investment Property Control Agreement with respect thereto duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Borrower or Guarantor and such securities intermediary or commodity intermediary or (ii) arrange for Working Capital Agent to become the entitlement holder with respect to such investment property on terms and conditions acceptable to Working Capital Agent.

(h) Borrowers and Guarantors are not the beneficiary or otherwise entitled to any right to payment under any letter of credit, banker’s acceptance or similar instrument as of the date hereof, except as set forth on Schedule 5.2(h).

Such Borrower or Guarantor shall immediately, as Working Capital Agent may specify, either (i) deliver, or cause to be delivered to Working Capital Agent, with respect to any such letter of credit, banker’s acceptance or similar instrument, the written agreement of the issuer and any other nominated person obligated to make any payment in respect thereof (including any confirming or negotiating bank), in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Working Capital Agent, consenting to the assignment of the proceeds of the letter of credit to Working Capital Agent by such Borrower or Guarantor and agreeing to make all payments thereon directly to Working Capital Agent or as Working Capital Agent may otherwise direct or (ii) cause Working Capital Agent to become, at Borrowers’ expense, the transferee beneficiary of the letter of credit, banker’s acceptance or similar instrument (as the case may be).

In the event that such notice does not include such grant of a security interest, the sending thereof by such Borrower or Guarantor to Working Capital Agent shall be deemed to constitute such grant to Working Capital Agent. Upon the sending of such notice, any commercial tort claim described therein shall constitute part of the Collateral and shall be deemed included therein. Without limiting the authorization of Working Capital Agent provided in Section 5.2(a) hereof or otherwise arising by the execution by such Borrower or Guarantor of this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements, Working Capital Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized from time to time and at any time to file such financing statements naming Working Capital Agent or its designee as secured party and such Borrower or Guarantor as debtor, or any amendments to any financing statements, covering any such commercial tort claim as Collateral.

The banks set forth on Schedule 8.10 constitute all of the banks with which Borrowers and Guarantors have deposit account arrangements and merchant payment arrangements as of the date hereof, which such Schedule identifies those deposit accounts that constitute a Store Account or otherwise describes the nature of the use of such deposit account by such Borrower.

All such funds deposited into the Store Accounts shall be sent by wire transfer or other electronic funds transfer on each Business Day to the Concentration Account as provided in Section 6.3(c), except for nominal amounts required to be maintained in such Store Accounts under the terms of such Borrower’s arrangements with the bank at which such Store Accounts are maintained (which nominal amounts shall not at any time exceed (i) $6,000 as to each Store Account from the period beginning January 1 through September 30 of each year and (ii) $15,000 as to each Store Account for the period beginning October 1 through December 31 of each year, provided that the aggregate amount in the Store Accounts for the period from October 1 through December 31 of each year shall not at any time exceed $1,750,000 on any given day).

(ii) Each Borrower shall cause Elavon Processor to deposit into the Elavon Deposit Account or the Concentration Account all amounts payable by Elavon Processor to any Borrower, such deposits to occur at least twice per calendar week by wire transfer or other electronic funds transfer.

(c) Each Borrower shall (i) cause all amounts (other than to the extent expressly permitted under Section 6.3(b)(i) hereof) on deposit in the Store Accounts of such Borrower to be deposited by wire transfer or other electronic funds transfer on each Business Day in the Concentration Account (or, to the extent consented to in advance in writing by the Working Capital Agent in its sole discretion, another Blocked Account), (ii) itself deposit or cause to be deposited on each Business Day in the Concentration Account (or, to the extent consented to in advance in writing by the Working Capital Agent in its sole discretion, another Blocked Account) in immediately available funds all proceeds of Collateral, including all proceeds from sales of Inventory and all other proceeds of Collateral, unless otherwise deposited pursuant to clause (i) above and (iii) at all times ensure that all other cash, cash proceeds or funds of the types described in Sections 6.3(b)(iv) and (v) of the Borrowers be immediately deposited directly into the Concentration Account. Borrowers and Guarantors shall deliver, or cause to be delivered to Working Capital Agent a Deposit Account Control Agreement duly authorized, executed and delivered by each bank where a Blocked Account is maintained as provided in Section 5.2 hereof. From and after the Amendment Effective Date, all available amounts received in the applicable Blocked Account or, subject to Section 6.3(d), any Store Account (except as provided in Section 6.3(b) above) shall be transferred daily from such Blocked Account or Store Account to the Agent Payment Account.

(d) At any time a Default or an Event of Default shall exist or have occurred and be continuing, promptly upon Working Capital Agent’s request, Borrowers and Guarantors shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Working Capital Agent a Deposit Account Control Agreement duly authorized, executed and delivered by such banks where a Store Account is maintained as Working Capital Agent shall specify. Without limiting any other rights or remedies of Agents or Lenders, in the event that a Deposit Account Control Agreement is in effect for a Store Account, then Working Capital Agent may, at its option, instruct the depository bank at which the Store Account is maintained to transfer all available funds received or deposited into the Store Account to Agent Payment Account at any time that an Event of Default shall exist or have occurred and be continuing.

(e) At all times, all payments made to the Concentration Account, the Elavon Deposit Account, all Blocked Accounts or Store Accounts subject to a Deposit Account Control Agreement, whether in respect of the Receivables, as proceeds of Inventory or other Collateral or otherwise shall be treated as payments to Working Capital Agent in respect of the Obligations and therefore shall constitute the property of Agents and Lenders to the extent of the then outstanding Obligations.

(f) No Borrower shall, or shall cause or permit any Subsidiary thereof, to accumulate or maintain cash in any payroll accounts as of any date of determination in excess of checks outstanding against such accounts as of that date and amounts necessary to meet minimum balance requirements.

(g) For purposes of calculating the amount of the Loans available to each Borrower, such payments will be applied (conditional upon final collection) to the Obligations on the Business Day of receipt by Working Capital Agent of immediately available funds in Agent Payment Account; provided such payments and notice thereof are received in accordance with Working Capital Agent’s usual and customary practices as in effect from time to time and within sufficient time to credit the applicable loan account on such day, and if not, then on the next Business Day.

(h) Each Borrower and Guarantor and their respective employees, agents and Subsidiaries shall, acting as trustee for Working Capital Agent, receive, as the property of Working Capital Agent, any monies, checks, notes, drafts or any other payment relating to and/or proceeds of Accounts or other Collateral which come into their possession or under their control and promptly upon receipt thereof, shall deposit or cause the same to be deposited in the Blocked Accounts, or remit the same or cause the same to be remitted, in kind, to Working Capital Agent.

(i) Borrowers agree to reimburse Working Capital Agent on demand for any amounts owed or paid to any bank or other financial institution at which a Blocked Account or any other deposit account or investment account is established or any other bank, financial institution or other person involved in the transfer of funds to or from the Blocked Accounts arising out of Working Capital Agent’s payments to or indemnification of such bank, financial institution or other person. The obligations of Borrowers to reimburse Working Capital Agent for such amounts pursuant to this Section 6.3 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

6.4 Payments.

(a) All Obligations shall be payable to Agent Payment Account as provided in Section 6.3 or such other place as Working Capital Agent may designate from time to time.

(i) Subject to the other terms and conditions contained herein, so long as no Collateral Enforcement Action has occurred, Working Capital Agent shall apply all payments received or collected from any Borrower or Guarantor or for the account of any Borrower or Guarantor as follows: first, to pay any fees, indemnities or expense reimbursements then due to Working Capital Agent, Revolving Lenders and Issuing Bank from any Borrower or Guarantor; second, to pay interest then due in respect of any Revolving Loans (and including any Permitted Overadvances) and Letter of Credit Obligations; third, to pay principal in respect of Permitted Overadvances; fourth, to pay principal in respect of the Revolving Loans; fifth to pay any fees or expense reimbursements then due to Term Loan Agent or Term Lenders from any Borrower or Guarantor; sixth, to pay interest then due with respect to the Term B-1 Loan, seventh, to pay interest then due with respect to the Term B-2 Loan, and eighth to the Borrowers’ operating account.

(ii) Subject to the other terms and conditions contained herein, after the occurrence of a Collateral Enforcement Action, Working Capital Agent shall apply payments received or collected from any Borrower or Guarantor or for the account of any Borrower or Guarantor (including the monetary proceeds of collections or of realization upon any Collateral) as follows: first, to pay any fees, indemnities or expense reimbursements then due to Working Capital Agent, Revolving Lenders and Issuing Bank from any Borrower or Guarantor; second, to pay interest due in respect of any Revolving Loans (and including any Permitted Overadvances) or Letter of Credit Obligations (including, in each case, Post-Petition Interest); third, to pay principal in respect of Permitted Overadvances; fourth, to pay principal in respect of the Revolving Loans, any then due Obligations under any Secured Rate Contract and to provide cash collateral for then outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations in the manner described in Section 2.2, ratably to the aggregate, combined principal balance of the principal of the Revolving Loans, the then due Obligations under any Secured Rate Contract and the outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations; fifth to pay any fees, indemnities or expense reimbursements then due to Term Loan Agent or Term Lenders from any Borrower or Guarantor; sixth, ratably to pay interest accrued and payable in respect of any Term B-1 Loans (including Post-Petition Interest), until paid in full; seventh, ratably to pay principal due in respect of the Term B-1 Loans, until paid in full; eighth, ratably to pay interest accrued and payable in respect of any Term B-2 Loans (including Post-Petition Interest), until paid in full; ninth, ratably to pay principal accrued and payable in respect of any Term B-2 Loans, until paid in full; tenth, to pay Obligations then due arising under or pursuant to any Hedge Agreement (other than any Secured Rate Contract) of a Borrower or Guarantor with a Bank Product Provider (up to the amount of any then effective Reserve established in respect of such Obligations), on a pro rata basis; eleventh, to pay or prepay any other Obligations whether or not then due, in such order and manner as Working Capital Agent determines and, at any time an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, to be held as cash collateral in connection with any Letter of Credit; and twelfth, to pay Obligations arising under or pursuant to any Bank Product (other than to the extent provided for above) on a pro rata basis. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement and subject to Section 2.1(c)(ii), (i) unless so directed by Working Capital Agent, or unless a Default or an Event of Default shall exist or have occurred and be continuing, Working Capital Agent shall not apply any payments which it receives to any Eurodollar Rate Loans, except (A) on the expiration date of the Interest Period applicable to any such Eurodollar Rate Loans or (B) in the event that there are no outstanding Prime Rate Loans and (ii) to the extent any Borrower uses any proceeds of the Revolving Loans or Letters of Credit to acquire rights in or the use of any Collateral or to repay any Indebtedness used to acquire rights in or the use of any Collateral, payments in respect of the Obligations shall be deemed applied first to the Obligations arising from Revolving Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations that were not used for such purposes and second to the Obligations arising from Revolving Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations the proceeds of which were used to acquire rights in or the use of any Collateral in the chronological order in which such Borrower acquired such rights in or the use of such Collateral. The Working Capital Agent shall use reasonable efforts to make the Term Loan Agent aware of the commencement of any Collateral Enforcement Action hereunder; provided, that the failure of the Term Loan Agent or any Term B-2 Lender being aware of such occurrence shall not impair the rights of the Secured Parties as set forth in this Section 6.4(a)(ii).

(b) At Working Capital Agent’s option, all principal, interest, fees, costs, expenses and other charges provided for in this Agreement or the other Financing Agreements may be charged directly to the loan account(s) of any Borrower maintained by Working Capital Agent. If after receipt of any payment of, or proceeds of Collateral applied to the payment of, any of the Obligations, any Agent, any Lender or Issuing Bank is required to surrender or return such payment or proceeds to any Person for any reason, then the Obligations intended to be satisfied by such payment or proceeds shall be reinstated and continue and this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by such Agent or such Lender. Borrowers and Guarantors shall be liable to pay to Working Capital Agent, and do hereby indemnify and hold Agents and Lenders harmless for the amount of any payments or proceeds surrendered or returned. This Section 6.4(b) shall remain effective notwithstanding any contrary action which may be taken by Agents or any Lender in reliance upon such payment or proceeds. This Section 6.4 shall survive the payment of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

(c) (i) Immediately upon receipt by any Borrower of any cash proceeds of any asset disposition (other than any Permitted Disposition described in clauses (a), (b), (e) and (f) of the definition thereof), Borrowers shall prepay the Loans in an amount equal to all such proceeds, net of (A) commissions and other reasonable and customary transaction costs, fees and expenses properly attributable to such transaction and payable by Borrowers in connection therewith (in each case, paid to non-Affiliates), (B) transfer taxes, (C) amounts payable to holders of senior Liens on such asset (to the extent such Liens constitute encumbrances permitted hereunder), if any, and (D) an appropriate reserve for income taxes in accordance with GAAP in connection therewith. Any such prepayment shall be applied in accordance with Section 6.4(a). The Commitment shall not be permanently reduced by the amount of any such prepayments.

(ii) If any Borrower issues Capital Stock or incurs any Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness permitted by Section 9.9), no later than the Business Day following the date of receipt of the proceeds thereof, Borrowers shall prepay the Loans (and cash collateralize Letter of Credit Obligations) in an amount equal to all such proceeds, net of underwriting discounts and commissions and other reasonable costs paid to non-Affiliates in connection therewith. Any such prepayment shall be applied in accordance with Section 6.4(a). The Commitment shall not be permanently reduced by the amount of any such prepayments.

6.5 Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any of the Obligations shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any setoff, counterclaim, defense, duties, taxes, levies, imposts, fees, deductions, charges, withholdings, liabilities, restrictions or conditions of any kind, excluding (i) in the case of each Lender, Issuing Bank and each Agent (A) taxes measured by its net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it, by the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) under the laws of which such Lender, Issuing Bank or Agent (as the case may be) is organized and (B) any United States withholding taxes payable with respect to payments under the Financing Agreements under laws (including any statute, treaty or regulation) in effect on the date hereof (or, in the case of an Eligible Transferee, the date of the Assignment and Acceptance) applicable to such Lender, Issuing Bank or Agents, as the case may be, but not excluding any U.S. withholding taxes payable as a result of any change in such laws occurring after the date hereof (or the date of such Assignment and Acceptance) and (ii) in the case of each Lender, taxes measured by its net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it as a result of a connection between such Lender and the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such tax or any taxing authority thereof or therein (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, fees, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”).

(b) If any Taxes shall be required by law to be deducted from or in respect of any sum payable in respect of the Obligations to any Lender, Issuing Bank or Agents (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 6.5), such Lender or Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the relevant Borrower or Guarantor shall make such deductions, (iii) the relevant Borrower or Guarantor shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxing authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law and (iv) the relevant Borrower or Guarantor shall deliver to Working Capital Agent evidence of such payment.

(c) In addition, each Borrower and Guarantor agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies of the United States or any political subdivision thereof or any applicable foreign jurisdiction, and all liabilities with respect thereto, in each case arising from any payment made hereunder or under any of the other Financing Agreements or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements (collectively, “Other Taxes”).

(d) Each Borrower and Guarantor shall indemnify each Lender, Issuing Bank and Agents for the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including any Taxes and Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 6.5) paid by such Lender, Issuing Bank or Agent (as the case may be) and any liability (including for penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted, unless the payment thereof by such Lender, Issuing Bank or Agent (as the case may be) resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Lender, Issuing Bank or Agent (as the case may be) as determined pursuant to a final, non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction. This indemnification shall be made within ten (10) days from the date such Lender, Issuing Bank or Agent (as the case may be) makes written demand therefor. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Administrative Borrower by a Lender or Issuing Bank (in each case with a copy to Working Capital Agent) or by Working Capital Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(e) If an Agent, Issuing Bank or any Lender receives a refund or credit in respect of any Taxes or Other Taxes for which such Agent, Issuing Bank or such Lender has received payment from any Borrower or Guarantor hereunder, so long as no Event of Default shall exist or have occurred and be continuing, such Agent, Issuing Bank or such Lender (as the case may be) shall credit to the loan account of Borrowers the amount of such refund or the amount of any tax savings (if any) realized by such Agent, Issuing Bank or such Lender directly attributable to such credit.

(f) As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes or Other Taxes by any Borrower or Guarantor, such Borrower or Guarantor shall furnish to Working Capital Agent, at its address referred to herein, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof.

(g) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreements of any Borrower or Guarantor hereunder or under any of the other Financing Agreements, the agreements and obligations of such Borrower or Guarantor contained in this Section 6.5 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment in full of the Obligations.

(h) Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the applicable Borrower is resident for tax purposes, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments hereunder or under any of the other Financing Agreements shall deliver to Administrative Borrower (with a copy to Working Capital Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by Administrative Borrower or Working Capital Agent (in such number of copies as is reasonably requested by the recipient), whichever of the following is applicable (but only if such Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do so): (i) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN claiming exemption from, or a reduction to, withholding tax under an income tax treaty, or any successor form, (ii) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form 8-8ECI claiming exemption from withholding because the income is effectively connection with a U.S. trade or business or any successor form, (iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Sections 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, (A) a certificate of the Lender to the effect that such Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of a Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code or a “controlled foreign corporation” described and Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (B) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN claiming exemption from withholding under the portfolio interest exemption or any successor form or (iv) any other applicable form, certificate or document prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit a Borrower to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made. Unless Administrative Borrower and Working Capital Agent have received forms or other documents reasonably satisfactory to them indicating that payments hereunder or under any of the other Financing Agreements to or for a Foreign Lender are not subject to U.S. withholding tax or are subject to such tax at a rate reduced by an applicable tax treaty, Borrowers or Working Capital Agent shall withhold amounts required to be withheld by applicable requirements of law from such payments at the applicable statutory rate.

(i) Any Lender claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 6.5 shall use its reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its applicable lending office if the making of such a change would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any such additional amounts that would be payable or may thereafter accrue and would not, in the sole determination of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

6.6 Authorization to Make Loans. Agents and Lenders are authorized to make the Loans based upon telephonic or other instructions received from anyone purporting to be an officer of Administrative Borrower or any Borrower or other authorized person or, at the discretion of Working Capital Agent, if such Loans are necessary to satisfy any Obligations. All requests for Loans or Letters of Credit hereunder shall specify the date on which the requested advance is to be made (which day shall be a Business Day) and the amount of the requested Loan. Requests received after 1 p.m. (Eastern time) on any day shall be deemed to have been made as of the opening of business on the immediately following Business Day. All Loans and Letters of Credit under this Agreement shall be conclusively presumed to have been made to, and at the request of and for the benefit of, any Borrower or Guarantor when deposited to the credit of any Borrower or Guarantor or otherwise disbursed or established in accordance with the instructions of any Borrower or Guarantor or in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

6.7 Use of Proceeds.

(a) Borrowers shall use the proceeds of the Loans and Letters of Credit hereunder only for: (i) working capital and other general corporate purposes not otherwise prohibited by the terms hereof and (ii) costs, expenses and fees incurred in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements.

(b) On the Amendment Effective Date, a portion of the Term B-2 Loans shall be used to repay a portion of the Revolving Loans and upon such repayment on the Amendment Effective Date, the Working Capital Agent shall implement a Reserve in the amount of $8,207,195.00 (such Reserve, the “Cash Note Payment Reserve”) for purposes of allowing the Borrowers to repay a portion of the Borrowers’ floating rate secured notes under the Existing Indenture in an amount equal to the Cash Note Payment Reserve (the “Cash Note Payment”) on or about November 19, 2012 (the date of such repayment, the “Exchange Closing Date”). Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, a portion of the Borrowers floating rate secured notes in an amount equal to $8,204,000.00 under the Existing Indenture will not be repaid on the Exchange Closing Date, but will be exchanged for floating rate secured notes under the Indenture (the “Exchange Notes”) on the Exchange Closing Date upon terms and conditions acceptable to the Agents. The parties acknowledge that on the Amendment Effective Date, the Working Capital Agent shall also implement a Reserve in an amount of not less than $5,141,363.00 (such Reserve, the “Holdover Reserve”) for purposes of repaying on the maturity date thereof (August 31, 2012) or redeeming prior to such maturity date in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth herein the floating rate secured notes under the Existing Indenture the holders of which do not consent to receipt of a Cash Note Payment and Exchange Notes on the Exchange Closing Date (collectively, the “Holdover Notes”). Unless such repayment constitutes a payment at stated maturity or an optional redemption that in each case is made in compliance with and pursuant to the terms of the Existng Indenture as in effect on the Amendment Effective Date and does not involve any consensual exchange or other transaction not contemplated by the Existing Indenture as so in effect, the terms of such repayment of the Borrower’s floating rate secured notes under the Existing Indenture and repayment or redemption of Holdover Notes (including without limitation the terms of any exchange offer, tender offer, or other consensual transaction with the holders of any Holdover Notes) shall in each case be on terms and conditions acceptable to Agents. Subject only to compliance with the terms set forth in Section 9.28 (as applicable), compliance with the terms set forth in Section 9.11, the absence of any Default or any Event of Default before and after giving effect to the applicable payment and the satisfaction of all conditions precedent to borrowing Loans hereunder as set forth in Section 4.2, (i) the Cash Note Payment Reserve will be released on the Exchange Closing Date and Borrowers will wire the Cash Note Payment to Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as trustee, (with evidence of such wire in a form and substance satisfactory to Agents to be promptly provided to Agents) under the Existing Indenture to effect payment thereof and as required under the Exchange Notes Documents and (ii) the Holdover Reserve will be released from time to time on the date of redemption or repayment of any Holdover Notes and Borrowers will wire the redemption or repayment amount to Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as trustee, (with evidence of such wire in a form and substance satisfactory to Agents to be promptly provided to Agents) under the Existing Indenture to effect payment thereof and as required or as may be permitted under the Existing Indenture as in effect on the Amendment Effective Date. Other than as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, in no event shall the Cash Note Payment Reserve or the Holdover Reserve be released without the prior written consent of the Agents.

(c) Borrowers shall deliver to Agents a description of Borrowers’ sources and uses of funds as of the Amendment Effective Date, including Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations to be made or incurred on that date, and a funds flow memorandum detailing how funds from each source are to be transferred to particular uses. None of the proceeds will be used, directly or indirectly, for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any margin security or for the purposes of reducing or retiring any indebtedness which was originally incurred to purchase or carry any margin security or for any other purpose which might cause any of the Loans to be considered a “purpose credit” within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, as amended.

6.8 Appointment of Administrative Borrower as Agent for Requesting Loans and Receipts of Loans and Statements.

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

(b) Administrative Borrower hereby accepts the appointment by Borrowers to act as the agent and attorney-in-fact of Borrowers pursuant to this Section 6.8. Administrative Borrower shall ensure that the disbursement of any Loans to each Borrower requested by or paid to or for the account of Parent, or the issuance of any Letter of Credit for a Borrower hereunder, shall be paid to or for the account of such Borrower.

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

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

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

6.9 Pro Rata Treatment. Except to the extent otherwise provided in this Agreement or as otherwise agreed by Lenders: (a) the making and conversion of Loans shall be made among the Lenders based on their respective Pro Rata Shares as to the Loans and (b) each payment on account of any Obligations to or for the account of one or more of Lenders in respect of any Obligations due on a particular day shall be allocated among the Lenders entitled to such payments based on their respective Pro Rata Shares and shall be distributed accordingly.

6.10 Sharing of Payments, Etc.

(a) Each Borrower and Guarantor agrees that, in addition to (and without limitation of) any right of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim Agents or any Lender may otherwise have, each Lender shall be entitled, at its option (but subject, as among Agents and Lenders, to the provisions of Section 12.3(b) hereof), to offset balances held by it for the account of such Borrower or Guarantor at any of its offices, in dollars or in any other currency, against any principal of or interest on any Loans owed to such Lender or any other amount payable to such Lender hereunder, that is not paid when due (regardless of whether such balances are then due to such Borrower or Guarantor), in which case it shall promptly notify Administrative Borrower and Working Capital Agent thereof; provided, that, such Lender’s failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity thereof.

(b) If any Lender (including Agents) shall obtain from any Borrower or Guarantor payment of any principal of or interest on any Loan owing to it or payment of any other amount under this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements through the exercise of any right of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim or similar right or otherwise (other than from Working Capital Agent as provided herein and other than pursuant to Permitted Overadvances and Sections 6.5 and 13.8), and, as a result of such payment, such Lender shall have received more than its Pro Rata Share of the principal of the Loans or more than its share of such other amounts then due hereunder or thereunder by any Borrower or Guarantor to such Lender than the percentage thereof received by any other Lender, it shall promptly pay to Working Capital Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, the amount of such excess and simultaneously purchase from such other Lenders a participation in the Loans or such other amounts, respectively, owing to such other Lenders (or such interest due thereon, as the case may be) in such amounts, and make such other adjustments from time to time as shall be equitable, to the end that all Lenders shall share the benefit of such excess payment (net of any expenses that may be incurred by such Lender in obtaining or preserving such excess payment) in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares or as otherwise agreed by Lenders. To such end all Lenders shall make appropriate adjustments among themselves (by the resale of participation sold or otherwise) if such payment is rescinded or must otherwise be restored.

(c) Each Borrower and Guarantor agrees that any Lender purchasing a participation (or direct interest) as provided in this Section may exercise, in a manner consistent with this Section, all rights of setoff, banker’s lien, counterclaim or similar rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct holder of Loans or other amounts (as the case may be) owing to such Lender in the amount of such participation.

(d) Nothing contained herein shall require any Lender to exercise any right of setoff, banker’s lien, counterclaims or similar rights or shall affect the right of any Lender to exercise, and retain the benefits of exercising, any such right with respect to any other Indebtedness or obligation of any Borrower or Guarantor. If, under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, any Lender receives a secured claim in lieu of a setoff to which this Section applies, such Lender shall, to the extent practicable, assign such rights to Working Capital Agent for the benefit of Lenders and, in any event, exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of Lenders entitled under this Section to share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim.

6.11 Settlement Procedures.

(a) In order to administer the Credit Facility in an efficient manner and to minimize the transfer of funds between Working Capital Agent and Lenders, Working Capital Agent may, at its option, subject to the terms of this Section, make available, on behalf of Lenders, the full amount of the Loans requested or charged to any Borrower’s loan account(s) or otherwise to be advanced by Lenders pursuant to the terms hereof, without requirement of prior notice to Lenders of the proposed Loans.

(b) With respect to all Loans made by Working Capital Agent on behalf of Lenders as provided in this Section, the amount of each Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding Loans shall be computed weekly, and shall be adjusted upward or downward on the basis of the amount of the outstanding Loans as of 5:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on the Business Day immediately preceding the date of each settlement computation; provided, that, Working Capital Agent retains the absolute right at any time or from time to time to make the above described adjustments at intervals more frequent than weekly. Working Capital Agent shall deliver to each of the Lenders after the end of each week, or at such lesser period or periods as Working Capital Agent shall determine, a summary statement of the amount of outstanding Loans for such period (such week or lesser period or periods being hereinafter referred to as a “Settlement Period”). If the summary statement is sent by Working Capital Agent and received by a Lender prior to 1:00 p.m. (Eastern time), then such Lender shall make the settlement transfer described in this Section by no later than 3:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on the same Business Day and if received by a Lender after 1:00 p.m. (Eastern time), then such Lender shall make the settlement transfer by not later than 3:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on the next Business Day following the date of receipt. If, as of the end of any Settlement Period, the amount of a Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding Loans is more than such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding Loans as of the end of the previous Settlement Period, then such Lender shall forthwith (but in no event later than the time set forth in the preceding sentence) transfer to Working Capital Agent by wire transfer in immediately available funds the amount of the increase. Alternatively, if the amount of a Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding Loans in any Settlement Period is less than the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding Loans for the previous Settlement Period, Working Capital Agent shall forthwith transfer to such Lender by wire transfer in immediately available funds the amount of the decrease. The obligation of each of the Lenders to transfer such funds and effect such settlement shall be irrevocable and unconditional and without recourse to or warranty by Working Capital Agent. Working Capital Agent and each Lender agrees to mark its books and records at the end of each Settlement Period to show at all times the dollar amount of its Pro Rata Share of the outstanding Loans and Letters of Credit. Each Lender shall only be entitled to receive interest on its Pro Rata Share of the Loans to the extent such Loans have been funded by such Lender. Because Working Capital Agent on behalf of Lenders may be advancing and/or may be repaid Loans prior to the time when Lenders will actually advance and/or be repaid such Loans, interest with respect to Loans shall be allocated by Working Capital Agent in accordance with the amount of Loans actually advanced by and repaid to each Lender and Working Capital Agent and shall accrue from and including the date such Loans are so advanced to but excluding the date such Loans are either repaid by Borrowers or actually settled with the applicable Lender as described in this Section.

(c) To the extent that Working Capital Agent has made any such amounts available and the settlement described above shall not yet have occurred, upon repayment of any Loans by a Borrower, Working Capital Agent may apply such amounts repaid directly to any amounts made available by Working Capital Agent pursuant to this Section. In lieu of weekly or more frequent settlements, Working Capital Agent may, at its option, at any time require each Lender to provide Working Capital Agent with immediately available funds representing its Pro Rata Share of each Loan, prior to Working Capital Agent’s disbursement of such Loan to Borrower. In such event, all Loans under this Agreement shall be made by the Lenders simultaneously and proportionately to their Pro Rata Shares. No Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in the other Lender’s obligation to make a Loan requested hereunder nor shall the Commitment of any Lender be increased or decreased as a result of the default by any other Lender in the other Lender’s obligation to make a Loan hereunder.

(d) If Working Capital Agent is not funding a particular Loan to a Borrower (or Administrative Borrower for the benefit of such Borrower) pursuant to Sections 6.11(a) and 6.11(b) above on any day, but is requiring each Lender to provide Working Capital Agent with immediately available funds on the date of such Loan as provided in Section 6.11(c) above, Working Capital Agent may assume that each Lender will make available to Working Capital Agent such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Loan requested or otherwise made on such day and Working Capital Agent may, in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, cause a corresponding amount to be made available to or for the benefit of such Borrower on such day. If Working Capital Agent makes such corresponding amount available to a Borrower and such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to Working Capital Agent by such Lender, Working Capital Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon for each day from the date such payment was due until the date such amount is paid to Working Capital Agent at the Federal Funds Rate for each day during such period (as published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York or at Working Capital Agent’s option based on the arithmetic mean determined by Working Capital Agent of the rates for the last transaction in overnight Federal funds arranged prior to 9:00 a.m. (Eastern time) on that day by each of the three leading brokers of Federal funds transactions in New York, New York selected by Working Capital Agent) and if such amounts are not paid within three (3) days of Working Capital Agent’s demand, at the highest Interest Rate provided for in Section 3.1 hereof applicable to Prime Rate Loans. During the period in which such Lender has not paid such corresponding amount to Working Capital Agent, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements, the amount so advanced by Working Capital Agent to or for the benefit of any Borrower shall, for all purposes hereof, be a Loan made by Working Capital Agent for its own account. Upon any such failure by a Lender to pay Working Capital Agent, Working Capital Agent shall promptly thereafter notify Administrative Borrower of such failure and Borrowers shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to Working Capital Agent for its own account. A Lender who fails to pay Working Capital Agent its Pro Rata Share of any Loans made available by Working Capital Agent on such Lender’s behalf, or any Lender who fails to pay any other amount owing by it to Working Capital Agent, is a “Defaulting Lender”. Working Capital Agent shall not be obligated to transfer to a Defaulting Lender any payments received by Working Capital Agent for the Defaulting Lender’s benefit, nor shall a Defaulting Lender be entitled to the sharing of any payments hereunder (including any principal, interest or fees). Amounts payable to a Defaulting Lender shall instead be paid to or retained by Working Capital Agent. Working Capital Agent may hold and, in its discretion, relend to a Borrower the amount of all such payments received or retained by it for the account of such Defaulting Lender. For purposes of voting or consenting to matters with respect to this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements and determining Pro Rata Shares, such Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not to be a “Lender” and such Lender’s Commitment shall be deemed to be zero (0). This Section shall remain effective with respect to a Defaulting Lender until such default is cured. The operation of this Section shall not be construed to increase or otherwise affect the Commitment of any Lender, or relieve or excuse the performance by any Borrower or Guarantor of their duties and obligations hereunder.

(e) Nothing in this Section or elsewhere in this Agreement or the other Financing Agreements shall be deemed to require Working Capital Agent to advance funds on behalf of any Lender or to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitment hereunder or to prejudice any rights that any Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by any Lender hereunder in fulfilling its Commitment.

6.12 Obligations Several; Independent Nature of Lenders’ Rights. The obligation of each Lender hereunder is several, and no Lender shall be responsible for the obligation or commitment of any other Lender hereunder. Nothing contained in this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements and no action taken by the Lenders pursuant hereto or thereto shall be deemed to constitute the Lenders to be a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity. The amounts payable at any time hereunder to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt, and subject to Section 12.3 hereof, each Lender shall be entitled to protect and enforce its rights arising out of this Agreement and it shall not be necessary for any other Lender to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

6.13 Bank Products. Borrowers and Guarantors, or any of their Subsidiaries, may (but no such Person is required to) request that the Bank Product Providers provide or arrange for such Person to obtain Bank Products from Bank Product Providers, and each Bank Product Provider may, in its sole discretion, provide or arrange for such Person to obtain the requested Bank Products. Borrowers and Guarantors or any of their Subsidiaries that obtains Bank Products shall indemnify and hold Working Capital Agent, each Lender and their respective Affiliates harmless from any and all obligations now or hereafter owing to any other Person by any Bank Product Provider in connection with any Bank Products other than for gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of any such indemnified Person. This Section 6.13 shall survive the payment of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. Borrower and its Subsidiaries acknowledge and agree that the obtaining of Bank Products from Bank Product Providers (a) is in the sole discretion of such Bank Product Provider, and (b) is subject to all rules and regulations of such Bank Product Provider. Each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed a party hereto for purposes of any reference in a Financing Agreement to the parties for whom Working Capital Agent is acting, provided, that, the rights of such Bank Product Provider hereunder and under any of the other Financing Agreements shall consist exclusively of such Bank Product Provider’s right to share in payments and collections out of the Collateral as set forth herein. In connection with any such distribution of payments and collections, Working Capital Agent shall be entitled to assume that no amounts are due to any Bank Product Provider unless such Bank Product Provider has notified Working Capital Agent in writing of any such liability owed to it as of the date of any such distribution.

Without limiting the foregoing, Borrowers shall furnish to Agents any information which Agents may reasonably request regarding the determination and calculation of any of the amounts set forth in any Borrowing Base Certificate. The Revolving Credit Borrowing Base and Term Borrowing Base may be adjusted based on the information set forth in the reports received by Agents under Section 7.1(a)(i) above. If any Borrower’s or Guarantor’s records or reports of the Collateral are prepared or maintained by an accounting service, contractor, shipper or other agent, such Borrower and Guarantor hereby irrevocably authorizes such service, contractor, shipper or agent to deliver such records, reports, and related documents to Agents and to follow Agents’ instructions with respect to further services.

7.2 Accounts Covenants.

(a) Borrowers shall notify Working Capital Agent promptly of the assertion of (i) any claims, offsets, defenses or counterclaims by any account debtor, Credit Card Issuer or Credit Card Processor or any disputes with any of such persons or any settlement, adjustment or compromise thereof, to the extent any of the foregoing exceeds $250,000 in any one case or $500,000 in the aggregate, (ii) all material adverse information relating to the financial condition of any account debtor, Credit Card Issuer or Credit Card Processor, and (iii) any event or circumstance which, to the best of any Borrower’s or Guarantor’s knowledge, which would cause Working Capital Agent to consider any then existing Credit Card Receivables as no longer Eligible Credit Card Receivables. No credit, discount, allowance or extension or agreement for any of the foregoing shall be granted to any account debtor, Credit Card Issuer or Credit Card Processor except in the ordinary course of a Borrower’s business in accordance with the current practices of such Borrower as in effect on the date hereof. So long as no Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, no Borrower shall settle, adjust or compromise any claim, offset, counterclaim or dispute with any account debtor, Credit Card Issuer, Credit Card Processor. At any time that an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, Working Capital Agent shall, at its option, have the exclusive right to settle, adjust or compromise any claim, offset, counterclaim or dispute with account debtors, Credit Card Issuers or Credit Card Processors or grant any credits, discounts or allowances.

10.2 Remedies.

(a) At any time an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, Working Capital Agent shall have all rights and remedies provided in this Agreement, the other Financing Agreements, the UCC and other applicable law, all of which rights and remedies may be exercised without notice to or consent by any Borrower or Guarantor, except as such notice or consent is expressly provided for hereunder or required by applicable law. All rights, remedies and powers granted to Working Capital Agent hereunder, under any of the other Financing Agreements, the UCC or other applicable law, are cumulative, not exclusive and enforceable, in Working Capital Agents’ discretion, alternatively, successively, or concurrently on any one or more occasions, and shall include, without limitation, the right to apply to a court of equity for an injunction to restrain a breach or threatened breach by any Borrower or Guarantor of this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements. Subject to Section 12 hereof, Working Capital Agent may, and at the direction of the Required Lenders shall, at any time or times, proceed directly against any Borrower or Guarantor to collect the Obligations without prior recourse to the Collateral.

(b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, at any time an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, Working Capital Agent may, at its option and shall upon the direction of the Required Lenders, (i) upon notice to Administrative Borrower, accelerate the payment of all Obligations and demand immediate payment thereof to Working Capital Agent for itself and the benefit of Lenders (provided, that, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Sections 10.1(f), 10.1(g) and 10.1(h), all Obligations shall automatically become immediately due and payable), and (ii) terminate the Commitments whereupon the obligation of each Lender to make any Loan and Issuing Bank to issue any Letter of Credit shall immediately terminate (provided, that, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Sections 10.1(f), 10.1(g) and 10.1(h), the Commitments and any other obligation of Agents or a Lender hereunder shall automatically terminate).

120

(c) Without limiting the foregoing, at any time an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, Working Capital Agent may, in its discretion (i) with or without judicial process or the aid or assistance of others, enter upon any premises on or in which any of the Collateral may be located and take possession of the Collateral or complete processing, manufacturing and repair of all or any portion of the Collateral, (ii) require any Borrower or Guarantor, at Borrowers’ expense, to assemble and make available to Working Capital Agent any part or all of the Collateral at any place and time designated by Working Capital Agent, (iii) collect, foreclose, receive, appropriate, setoff and realize upon any and all Collateral, (iv) remove any or all of the Collateral from any premises on or in which the same may be located for the purpose of effecting the sale, foreclosure or other disposition thereof or for any other purpose, (v) sell, lease, transfer, assign, deliver or otherwise dispose of any and all Collateral (including entering into contracts with respect thereto, public or private sales at any exchange, broker’s board, at any office of Working Capital Agent or elsewhere) at such prices or terms as Working Capital Agent may deem reasonable, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery, with Working Capital Agent having the right to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral at any such public sale, all of the foregoing being free from any right or equity of redemption of any Borrower or Guarantor, which right or equity of redemption is hereby expressly waived and released by Borrowers and Guarantors and/or (vi) terminate this Agreement. If any of the Collateral is sold or leased by Working Capital Agent upon credit terms or for future delivery, the Obligations shall not be reduced as a result thereof until payment therefor is finally collected by Working Capital Agent. If notice of disposition of Collateral is required by law, ten (10) days prior notice by Working Capital Agent to Administrative Borrower designating the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition of Collateral is to be made, shall be deemed to be reasonable notice thereof and Borrowers and Guarantors waive any other notice. In the event Working Capital Agent institutes an action to recover any Collateral or seeks recovery of any Collateral by way of prejudgment remedy, each Borrower and Guarantor waives the posting of any bond which might otherwise be required. At any time an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, upon Working Capital Agent’s request, Borrowers will either, as Working Capital Agent shall specify, furnish cash collateral to Issuing Bank to be used to secure and fund the reimbursement obligations to Issuing Bank in connection with any Letter of Credit Obligations or furnish cash collateral to Issuing Bank for the Letter of Credit Obligations. Such cash collateral shall be in the amount equal to one hundred five (105%) percent of the amount of the Letter of Credit Obligations plus the amount of any fees and expenses payable in connection therewith through the end of the latest expiration date of such Letter of Credit Obligations.

(d) At any time or times that an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, Working Capital Agent may, in its discretion, enforce the rights of any Borrower or Guarantor against any account debtor, secondary obligor or other obligor in respect of any of the Accounts or other Receivables. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Working Capital Agent may, in its discretion, at such time or times (i) notify any or all account debtors (including Credit Card Issuers and Credit Card Processors), secondary obligors or other obligors in respect thereof that the Receivables have been assigned to Working Capital Agent and that Working Capital Agent has a security interest therein and Working Capital Agent may direct any or all account debtors (including Credit Card Issuers and Credit Card Processors), secondary obligors and other obligors to make payment of Receivables directly to Working Capital Agent, (ii) extend the time of payment of, compromise, settle or adjust for cash, credit, return of merchandise or otherwise, and upon any terms or conditions, any and all Receivables or other obligations included in the Collateral and thereby discharge or release the account debtor or any secondary obligors or other obligors in respect thereof without affecting any of the Obligations, (iii) demand, collect or enforce payment of any Receivables or such other obligations, but without any duty to do so, and Agents and Lenders shall not be liable for any failure to collect or enforce the payment thereof nor for the negligence of its agents or attorneys with respect thereto and (iv) take whatever other action Working Capital Agent may deem necessary or desirable for the protection of its interests and the interests of Lenders. At any time that an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, at Working Capital Agent’s request, all invoices and statements sent to any account debtor shall state that the Accounts and such other obligations have been assigned to Working Capital Agent and are payable directly and only to Working Capital Agent and Borrowers and Guarantors shall deliver to Working Capital Agent such originals of documents evidencing the sale and delivery of goods or the performance of services giving rise to any Accounts as Working Capital Agent may require. In the event any account debtor returns Inventory when an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, Borrowers shall, upon Working Capital Agent’s request, hold the returned Inventory in trust for Working Capital Agent, segregate all returned Inventory from all of its other property, dispose of the returned Inventory solely according to Working Capital Agent’s instructions, and not issue any credits, discounts or allowances with respect thereto without Working Capital Agent’s prior written consent.

121

(e) To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on Working Capital Agent or any Lender to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner (which duties cannot be waived under such law), each Borrower and Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for Working Capital Agent or any Lender (i) to fail to incur expenses reasonably deemed significant by Agents or any Lender to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to complete raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (ii) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or to fail to obtain consents of any Governmental Authority or other third party for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of, except to the extent such failure violates applicable law, (iii) to fail to exercise collection remedies against account debtors, secondary obligors or other persons obligated on Collateral or to remove liens or encumbrances on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (iv) to exercise collection remedies against account debtors and other persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (v) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (vi) to contact other persons, whether or not in the same business as any Borrower or Guarantor, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of the Collateral, (vii) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the collateral is of a specialized nature, (viii) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (ix) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (x) to disclaim disposition warranties, (xi) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure Agents or Lenders against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to Agents or Lenders a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (xii) to the extent deemed appropriate by Agents, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist Working Capital Agent in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. Each Borrower and Guarantor acknowledges that the purpose of this Section is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by Agents or any Lender would not be commercially unreasonable in the exercise by Agents or any Lender of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by Agents or any Lender shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this Section. Without limitation of the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section shall be construed to grant any rights to any Borrower or Guarantor or to impose any duties on Agents or Lenders that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this Section.

122

(f) For the purpose of enabling Working Capital Agent to exercise the rights and remedies hereunder, each Borrower and Guarantor hereby grants to Working Capital Agent, to the extent assignable, an irrevocable, non-exclusive license (exercisable at any time an Event of Default shall exist or have occurred and for so long as the same is continuing) without payment of royalty or other compensation to any Borrower or Guarantor, to use, assign, license or sublicense any of the trademarks, service-marks, trade names, business names, trade styles, designs, logos and other source of business identifiers and other Intellectual Property and general intangibles now owned or hereafter acquired by any Borrower or Guarantor, wherever the same maybe located, including in such license reasonable access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer programs used for the compilation or printout thereof.

(g) At any time an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, Working Capital Agent may apply the cash proceeds of Collateral actually received by Working Capital Agent from any sale, lease, foreclosure or other disposition of the Collateral to payment of the Obligations, in whole or in part and in accordance with the terms hereof, whether or not then due or may hold such proceeds as cash collateral for the Obligations. Borrowers and Guarantors shall remain liable to Agents and Lenders for the payment of any deficiency with interest at the highest rate provided for herein and all costs and expenses of collection or enforcement, including attorneys’ fees and expenses.

(h) Without limiting the foregoing, upon the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default, (i) Agents and Lenders may, at Working Capital Agent’s option, and upon the occurrence of an Event of Default at the direction of the Required Lenders, Agents and Lenders shall, without notice, (A) cease making Loans or arranging for Letters of Credit or reduce the lending formulas or amounts of Loans and Letters of Credit available to Borrowers and/or (B) terminate any provision of this Agreement providing for any future Loans to be made by Agents and Lenders or Letters of Credit to be issued by Issuing Bank and (ii) Working Capital Agent may, at its option, establish such Reserves as Working Capital Agent determines, without limitation or restriction, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein.

Accordingly, each Borrower and Guarantor waives any rights it may have under the UCC to demand the filing of termination statements with respect to the Collateral and Working Capital Agent shall not be required to send such termination statements to Borrowers or Guarantors, or to file them with any filing office, unless and until this Agreement shall have been terminated in accordance with its terms and all Obligations paid and satisfied in full in immediately available funds.

13.5 Confidentiality.

(a) Each Agent, each Lender and Issuing Bank shall use all reasonable efforts to keep confidential, in accordance with its customary procedures for handling confidential information and safe and sound lending practices, any non-public information supplied to it by any Borrower pursuant to this Agreement which is clearly and conspicuously marked as confidential at the time such information is furnished by such Borrower to Agents, such Lender or Issuing Bank, provided, that, nothing contained herein shall limit the disclosure of any such information: (i) to the extent required by statute, rule, regulation, subpoena or court order, (ii) to bank examiners and other regulators, auditors and/or accountants, in connection with any litigation to which Agents, such Lender or Issuing Bank is a party, (iii) to any Lender or Participant (or prospective Lender or Participant) or to any Affiliate of any Lender or Issuing Bank so long as such Lender, Participant (or prospective Lender or Participant or Issuing Bank) shall have agreed to treat such information as confidential in accordance with this Section 13.5 and such Lender, Participant (or prospective Lender or Participant or Issuing Bank) shall have caused such Affiliate to treat such information as confidential in accordance with this Section 13.5, or (iv) to counsel for Agents, any Lender, Issuing Bank or Participant (or prospective Lender or Participant).

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

(c) In no event shall this Section 13.5 or any other provision of this Agreement, any of the other Financing Agreements or applicable law be deemed: (i) to apply to or restrict disclosure of information that has been or is made public by any Borrower, Guarantor or any third party or otherwise becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure in violation hereof, (ii) to apply to or restrict disclosure of information that was or becomes available to any Agent, any Lender, Issuing Bank (or any Affiliate of any Lender or Issuing Bank) on a non-confidential basis from a person other than a Borrower or Guarantor (unless such Agent, Issuing Bank or such Lender knows that such information was disclosed in violation of a confidentiality agreement or applicable law), (iii) to require any Agent, any Lender or Issuing Bank to return any materials furnished by a Borrower or Guarantor to an Agent, a Lender or Issuing Bank or prevent an Agent, a Lender or Issuing Bank from responding to routine informational requests in accordance with the Code of Ethics for the Exchange of Credit Information promulgated by The Robert Morris Associates or other applicable industry standards relating to the exchange of credit information.

In addition, Agents, Lenders and Issuing Bank may disclose information relating to the Credit Facility to Gold Sheets and other similar publications with such information to consist of deal terms and other information customarily found in such publications and that Agents and their affiliates may otherwise use the corporate name and logo of Borrowers and Guarantors in “tombstones” or other advertisements or public statements.

140

13.6 Publicity. Each Borrower and Guarantor agrees that neither it nor its Affiliates will in the future issue any press releases or other public disclosure (other than any disclosures required by the Securities and Exchange Commission) using the name of GE Capital or its affiliates or referring to this Agreement, the other Financing Agreements without at least two (2) Business Days’ prior notice to GE Capital and without the prior written consent of GE Capital unless (and only to the extent that) such Borrower, Guarantor or Affiliate is required to do so under law and then, in any event, such Borrower, Guarantor or Affiliate will consult with GE Capital before issuing such press release or other public disclosure.

Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, Agents reserve the right to provide to industry trade organizations information necessary and customary for inclusion in league table measurements.

Any such purported assignment without such express prior written consent shall be void. No Lender may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of each Agent, except as provided in Section 13.8 below. The terms and provisions of this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements are for the purpose of defining the relative rights and obligations of Borrowers, Guarantors, Agents, Issuing Bank and Lenders with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and there shall be no third party beneficiaries of any of the terms and provisions of this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements.

Such requesting Lender agrees to provide such cooperation as may be reasonably requested by Administrative Borrower in connection with obtaining information relevant to such determination.

(b) Working Capital Agent shall maintain a register of the names and addresses of Lenders, their Commitments and the principal amount of their Loans (the “Register”). Working Capital Agent shall also maintain a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and shall modify the Register to give effect to each Assignment and Acceptance. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and any Borrowers, Guarantors, Agents and Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement.

(e) Each Lender may sell participations to one or more banks or other entities in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it and its participation in the Letter of Credit Obligations, without the consent of Agents or the other Lenders); provided, that, (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Commitment hereunder) and the other Financing Agreements shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and Borrowers, Guarantors, the other Lenders and Agents shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements, and (iii) the Participant shall not have any rights under this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements (the Participant’s rights against such Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreement executed by such Lender in favor of the Participant relating thereto) and all amounts payable by any Borrower or Guarantor hereunder shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation.

(f) Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or prohibit any Lender from pledging its Loans hereunder to a Federal Reserve Bank in support of borrowings made by such Lenders from such Federal Reserve Bank; provided, that, no such pledge shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee for such Lender as a party hereto.

13.9 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the other Financing Agreements, any supplements hereto or thereto, and any instruments or documents delivered or to be delivered in connection herewith or therewith represents the entire agreement and understanding concerning the subject matter hereof and thereof between the parties hereto, and supersede all other prior agreements, understandings, negotiations and discussions, representations, warranties, commitments, proposals, offers and contracts concerning the subject matter hereof, whether oral or written.

The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (i) each reference to the Existing Loan Agreement, however so defined, in the Financing Agreements (as defined in the Existing Loan Agreement) from and after the date hereof shall mean the Existing Loan Agreement as amended and restated pursuant to this Agreement, and (ii) each of the Financing Agreements (as defined in the Existing Loan Agreement) is hereby amended by (a) substituting a reference to this Agreement as herein defined in place of each reference to the Existing Loan Agreement (whether referred to by the full name of the Existing Loan Agreement or by any other name which refers thereto by definition), (b) substituting for the definition of each capitalized term defined by reference to the Existing Loan Agreement the definition of such capitalized term set forth in this Agreement, including without limitation the definition of the term “Obligations” and (c) each reference to the word “Agent” in each of the Financing Agreements and instruments delivered thereunder (including, without limitation, UCC financing statements and insurance certificates) shall be deemed a reference to “Working Capital Agent” as herein defined in place of each reference to “Agent” in such Financing Agreements. Each of the parties hereto agrees that each Financing Agreement (as defined in the Existing Loan Agreement), as amended hereby, to which such party is a party shall remain in full force and effect. Each of the parties listed as signatories hereto ratifies and reaffirms the continued validity of, and all of the terms and conditions of, and all of the warranties and representations set forth in, each such Financing Agreement (as defined in the Existing Loan Agreement), as amended hereby, to which it is a party and agrees and confirms that the Obligations are secured under and in accordance with the Financing Agreements (as defined in the Existing Loan Agreement), as amended hereby, to which such party is a party. Each of the Credit Parties hereby acknowledges, confirms and agrees that the Liens, pledges and security interests granted pursuant to the Financing Agreements (as defined in the Existing Loan Agreement), as amended hereby, are and continue to be valid, perfected and enforceable first priority liens, pledges and security interests that secure all of the Obligations on and after the date hereof. All references in each of the Financing Agreements (as defined in the Existing Loan Agreement) or any related agreement or instrument, as amended hereby, to the Financing Agreements (as defined in the Existing Loan Agreement) hereafter refer to each of the Financing Agreements (as defined in the Existing Loan Agreement), as amended hereby.
