If at any time proceeds (“Excess Proceeds”) remain after the prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to Section 4.4(b), the amount of such Excess Proceeds shall be used on the date of the required prepayment under Section 4.4(b) to prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans (with a corresponding reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitment as set forth in Section 2.6(b) below) and Swingline Loans.

(e) Limitation on Repayment of LIBOR Rate Loans. The Borrower may not repay any LIBOR Rate Loan on any day other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto unless such repayment is accompanied by any amount required to be paid pursuant to Section 5.9 hereof.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Revolving Credit Commitment cannot be reduced to an amount less than the amount of the then outstanding Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans.

(b) Mandatory Reductions. If at any time Excess Proceeds remain after the prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to Section 4.4(b), the Revolving Credit Commitment shall be permanently reduced on the date of the required prepayment under Section 4.4(b) by an amount equal to the amount of such Excess Proceeds.

(c) Manner of Payment. Each permanent reduction permitted or required pursuant to this Section 2.6 shall be accompanied by a payment of principal sufficient to reduce the aggregate outstanding Revolving Credit Loans, Swingline Loans and L/C Obligations, as applicable, after such reduction to the Revolving Credit Commitment as so reduced and if the Revolving Credit Commitment as so reduced is less than the aggregate amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit, the Borrower shall be required to furnish cash collateral in accordance with Section 12.2(b) in an amount equal to the aggregate then undrawn and unexpired amount of such Letter of Credit. Any reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitment to zero shall be accompanied by payment of all outstanding Revolving Credit Loans and Swingline Loans (and furnishing of cash collateral in accordance with Section 12.2(b) for all L/C Obligations) and termination of the Revolving Credit Commitment and the Swingline Commitment and the Revolving Credit Facility. Such cash collateral shall be applied in accordance with Section 12.2(b).

Pursuant to an Increase Notification, the Borrower may request that additional Revolving Credit Loans be made on the Increase Effective Date.

(b) Increases in the Revolving Credit Commitment shall be obtained from existing Lenders or from other banks, financial institutions or investment funds that qualify as Eligible Assignees, in each case in accordance with this Section 2.8. Participation in any increase in the Revolving Credit Commitment shall be offered first to each of the existing Lenders (who shall promptly, but in no event later than ten (10) days after such offer, make a determination as to whether to participate in such increase); provided that no such Lender shall have any obligation to provide any portion of such increase. If the amount of the increase requested by the Borrower shall exceed the commitments which the existing Lenders are willing to provide with respect to such increase, then the Borrower may invite other banks, financial institutions and investment funds which meet the requirements of an Eligible Assignee to join this Agreement as Lenders for the portion of such increase not committed to by existing Lenders (each such other bank, financial institution or investment fund, a “New Revolving Credit Lender” and, collectively with the existing Revolving Credit Lenders providing increased Revolving Credit Commitments, the “Increase Revolving Credit Lenders”).

(c) The following terms and conditions shall apply to each increase in the Revolving Credit Commitment: (i) such increase in the Revolving Credit Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.8 (and any Extensions of Credit made thereunder) shall constitute Obligations of the Borrower and shall be secured with the other Loans on a pari passu basis; (ii) any New Revolving Credit Lender providing such increase shall be entitled to the same voting rights as the existing Lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility and any Extensions of Credit made in

connection with such increase shall receive proceeds of prepayments on the same basis as the other Revolving Credit Loans made hereunder; (iii) to the extent requested by the applicable Lenders, the Borrower shall execute such new or replacement Revolving Credit Notes as are necessary to reflect the increase in the Revolving Credit Commitment under this Section 2.8; (iv) the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have received from the Borrower an Officer’s Compliance Certificate in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, demonstrating that, after giving effect to any such increase in the Revolving Credit Commitment, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries will be in pro forma compliance with the financial covenants set forth in Article X; (v) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing hereunder as of the applicable Increase Effective Date or after giving effect to such increase in the Revolving Credit Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.8 or any Extensions of Credit made in connection therewith; (vi) the representations and warranties made by the Credit Parties and contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be true and correct on and as of the Increase Effective Date with the same effect as if made on and as of such date (other than those representations and warranties that by their terms speak as of a particular date, which representations and warranties shall be true and correct as of such particular date); (vii) the amount of such increase in the Revolving Credit Commitment shall not be less than a minimum principal amount of $25,000,000, or any whole multiple of $5,000,000 in excess thereof (unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent), or if less, the maximum amount permitted pursuant to clause (a) above; (viii) the Credit Parties and each Increase Revolving Credit Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, a written agreement acknowledged by the Administrative Agent and each Subsidiary Guarantor, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (a “Lender Addition and Acknowledgement Agreement”); (ix) the Administrative Agent shall have received any documents or information, including any joinder agreements, in connection with such increase in the Revolving Credit Commitment as it may request in its reasonable discretion; and (x) the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans and Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages of L/C Obligations will be reallocated by the Administrative Agent on the applicable Increase Effective Date among the Lenders in accordance with their revised Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages (and the Lenders agree to make all payments and adjustments necessary to effect such reallocation and the Borrower shall pay any and all costs required pursuant to Section 5.9 in connection with such reallocation as if such reallocation were a repayment).

(d) Upon the execution, delivery, acceptance and recording of the applicable Lender Addition and Acknowledgment Agreement, from and after the applicable Increase Effective Date, each Increase Revolving Credit Lender shall have a Revolving Credit Commitment as set forth in the Register and all the rights and obligations of a Lender with a Revolving Credit Commitment hereunder.

(e) The Administrative Agent shall maintain a copy of each Lender Addition and Acknowledgment Agreement delivered to it in accordance with Section 14.10(d).

(f) Within five (5) Business Days after receipt of notice, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, in exchange for any surrendered Revolving Credit Note or Revolving Credit Notes of any existing Lender or with respect to any New Revolving Credit Lender, a new Revolving Credit Note or Revolving Credit Notes to the order of the applicable

Such Revolving Credit Note or Revolving Credit Notes shall be in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of such Revolving Credit Commitments, shall be dated as of the applicable Increase Effective Date and shall otherwise be in substantially the form of the existing Revolving Credit Notes. Each surrendered Revolving Credit Note and/or Revolving Credit Notes shall be canceled and returned to the Borrower.

Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Issuing Lender, in reliance on the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in Section 3.4, agrees to issue standby letters of credit (“Letters of Credit”) for the account of the Borrower on any Business Day from the Closing Date through but not including the L/C Facility Termination Date in such form as may be approved from time to time by the Issuing Lender; provided, that the Issuing Lender shall have no obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance, (a) the L/C Obligations would exceed the L/C Commitment or (b) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Revolving Credit Loans plus the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Swingline Loans plus the aggregate amount of L/C Obligations would exceed the Revolving Credit Commitment. Each Letter of Credit shall (i) be denominated in Dollars in a minimum amount of $50,000, (ii) be a standby letter of credit issued to support obligations of the Borrower, contingent or otherwise, incurred in the ordinary course of business, (iii) expire on a date satisfactory to the Issuing Lender, which date shall be no later than the earlier of (A) the date that is twelve (12) months after the date of issuance thereof (provided that any Letter of Credit may be automatically renewable for additional twelve (12) month periods so long as no such renewal shall cause such Letter of Credit to terminate on a date that is later than the Revolving Credit Maturity Date) and (B) the fifth (5th) Business Day prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date and (iv) be subject to the Uniform Customs and/or ISP98 and, to the extent not inconsistent therewith, the laws of the State of New York. The Issuing Lender shall not at any time be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit hereunder if such issuance would conflict with, or cause the Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant to exceed any limits imposed by, any Applicable Law. References herein to “issue” and derivations thereof with respect to Letters of Credit shall also include extensions, amendments or modifications of the Existing Letters of Credit, unless the context otherwise requires.

SECTION 3.2 Procedure for Issuance of Letters of Credit. The Borrower may from time to time request that the Issuing Lender issue a Letter of Credit by delivering to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender at the Administrative Agent’s Office an Application therefor, completed to the satisfaction of the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender, and such other certificates, documents and other papers and information as the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender may request. Upon receipt of any Application, the

Issuing Lender shall process such Application and the certificates, documents and other papers and information delivered to it in connection therewith in accordance with its customary procedures and shall, subject to Section 3.1 and Article VI hereof, promptly issue the Letter of Credit requested thereby (but in no event shall the Issuing Lender be required to issue any Letter of Credit earlier than three (3) Business Days after its receipt of the Application therefor and all such other certificates, documents and other papers and information relating thereto) by issuing the original of such Letter of Credit to the beneficiary thereof or as otherwise may be agreed by the Issuing Lender and the Borrower. The Issuing Lender shall furnish to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a copy of such Letter of Credit and the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the issuance and, upon request by any Lender, furnish to such Lender a copy of such Letter of Credit and the amount of each L/C Participant’s participation therein, all promptly following the issuance of such Letter of Credit.

SECTION 3.3 Commissions and Other Charges.

(a) Letter of Credit Commission. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender and the L/C Participants, a letter of credit commission with respect to each Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of (i) the Applicable Margin with respect to LIBOR Rate Loans (as set forth in Section 5.1 hereof) in effect on the corresponding payment date (determined on a per annum basis) and (ii) the average face amount of such Letter of Credit for the corresponding quarterly period. Such commission shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter (based on the then current Applicable Margin) and on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date. The Administrative Agent shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, distribute to the Issuing Lender and the L/C Participants such commission in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages.

(b) Issuance Fees. In addition to the foregoing commission, the Borrower shall pay the Issuing Lender, for its account, an issuance fee with respect to each Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of (i) one-eighth percent (0.125%) per annum and (ii) the face amount of such Letter of Credit as of the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit. Such fee shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter and on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date.

(c) Other Costs and Expenses. In addition to the foregoing fees and commissions, the Borrower shall pay or reimburse the Issuing Lender for such normal and customary costs and expenses as are incurred or charged by the Issuing Lender in issuing, effecting payment under, amending or otherwise administering any Letter of Credit.

SECTION 3.4 L/C Participations.

(a) The Issuing Lender irrevocably agrees to grant and hereby grant to each L/C Participant, and, to induce the Issuing Lender to issue Letters of Credit hereunder, each L/C Participant irrevocably agrees to accept and purchase and hereby accepts and purchases from the Issuing Lender for such L/C Participant’s own account and risk an undivided interest equal to such L/C Participant’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage in the Issuing Lender’s obligations and rights under and in respect of each Letter of Credit issued hereunder and the

amount of each draft paid by the Issuing Lender thereunder. Each L/C Participant unconditionally and irrevocably agrees with the Issuing Lender (notwithstanding any Default, Event of Default, non-satisfaction of conditions set forth in Article VI or any other circumstances whatsoever) that, if a draft is paid under any Letter of Credit for which the Issuing Lender is not reimbursed in full by the Borrower through a Revolving Credit Loan or otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such L/C Participant shall pay to the Issuing Lender upon demand at the Issuing Lender’s address for notices specified herein an amount equal to such L/C Participant’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the amount of such draft, or any part thereof, which is not so reimbursed.

(b) Upon becoming aware of any amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant to the Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.4(a) in respect of any unreimbursed portion of any payment made by the Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender shall notify each L/C Participant of the amount and due date of such required payment and such L/C Participant shall pay to the Issuing Lender the amount specified on the applicable due date. If any such amount is paid to the Issuing Lender after the date such payment is due, such L/C Participant shall pay to the Issuing Lender on demand, in addition to such amount, the product of (i) such amount, times (ii) the daily average Federal Funds Rate as determined by the Administrative Agent during the period from and including the date such payment is due to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Issuing Lender, times (iii) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse during such period and the denominator of which is 360. A certificate of the Issuing Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 3.4 shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. With respect to payment to the Issuing Lender of the unreimbursed amounts described in this Section 3.4(b), if the L/C Participants receive notice that any such payment is due (A) prior to 1:00 p.m. (Charlotte time) on any Business Day, such payment shall be due that Business Day, and (B) after 1:00 p.m. (Charlotte time) on any Business Day, such payment shall be due on the following Business Day.

(c) Whenever, at any time after the Issuing Lender has made payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any L/C Participant its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of such payment in accordance with this Section 3.4, the Issuing Lender receives any payment related to such Letter of Credit (whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise), or any payment of interest on account thereof, the Issuing Lender will distribute to such L/C Participant its pro rata share thereof; provided, that in the event that any such payment received by the Issuing Lender shall be required to be returned by the Issuing Lender, such L/C Participant shall return to the Issuing Lender the portion thereof previously distributed by the Issuing Lender to it.

SECTION 3.5 Reimbursement Obligation of the Borrower. The Borrower agrees to reimburse the Issuing Lender on each date on which the Issuing Lender notifies the Borrower of the date and amount of a draft paid under any Letter of Credit for the amount of (i) such draft so paid and (ii) any taxes, fees, charges or other costs or expenses incurred by the Issuing Lender in connection with such payment. Each such payment shall be made to the Issuing Lender at its address for notices specified herein in lawful money of the United States and in immediately available funds. Interest shall be payable on any and all amounts remaining unpaid by the Borrower under this Article III from the date such amounts become payable (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) until payment in full at the rate which would be payable

on any outstanding Base Rate Loans which were then overdue. If the Borrower fails to timely reimburse the Issuing Lender on the date the Borrower receives the notice referred to in this Section 3.5, the Borrower shall be deemed to have timely given a Notice of Revolving Credit/Swingline Borrowing hereunder to the Administrative Agent requesting the Lenders to make a Revolving Credit Loan as a Base Rate Loan on such date in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing and any taxes, fees, charges or other costs or expenses incurred by the Issuing Lender in connection with such payment by the Issuing Lender and, regardless of whether or not the conditions precedent specified in Article VI have been satisfied, the Lenders shall make Revolving Credit Loans as Base Rate Loans in such amount, the proceeds of which shall be applied to reimburse the Issuing Lender for the amount of the related drawing and costs and expenses.

SECTION 3.6 Obligations Absolute. The obligations of the Borrower under this Article III (including, without limitation, the Reimbursement Obligation) shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any set-off, counterclaim or defense to payment which the Borrower may have or have had against the Issuing Lender, any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or any other Person. The Borrower also agrees that the Issuing Lender and the L/C Participants shall not be responsible for, and the Reimbursement Obligation of the Borrower under Section 3.5 shall not be affected by, among other things, the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even though such documents shall in fact prove to be invalid, fraudulent or forged, or any dispute between or among the Borrower and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred or any claims whatsoever of the Borrower against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or any such transferee. The Issuing Lender shall not be liable for any error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with any Letter of Credit except for errors or omissions caused by the Issuing Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Borrower agrees that any action taken or omitted by the Issuing Lender under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or the related drafts or documents, if done in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall be binding on the Borrower and shall not result in any liability of the Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant to the Borrower. The responsibility of the Issuing Lender to the Borrower in connection with any draft presented for payment under any Letter of Credit shall, in addition to any payment obligation expressly provided for in such Letter of Credit be limited to determining that the documents (including each draft) delivered under such Letter of Credit in connection with such presentment are in conformity with such Letter of Credit.

SECTION 3.7 Effect of Application. To the extent that any provision of any Application related to any Letter of Credit is inconsistent with the provisions of this Article III, the provisions of this Article III shall apply.

Except as otherwise provided in Section 14.10(a)-(e), each Lender’s Term Loan and the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Term Loan may, at the election of such Lender, be evidenced by a separate Term Note executed by the Borrower payable to the order of such Lender. Each Term Note shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof at the applicable interest rate per annum specified in Section 5.1.

SECTION 4.6 Optional Increase In Term Loan Commitment.

(a) Subject to the conditions set forth below, at any time prior to the Term Loan Maturity Date, the Borrower shall have the option to incur additional indebtedness under this Agreement in the form of an increase of the Term Loan Commitment in an additional aggregate principal amount of up to (i) $150,000,000 less (ii) the sum of (A) the aggregate principal amount of all prior or simultaneous increases to the Revolving Credit Commitment made pursuant to Section 2.8 of this Agreement and (B) the aggregate principal amount of all prior increases to the Term Loan Commitment made pursuant to this Section 4.6. The Borrower, by providing an Increase Notification, may request that additional Term Loans be made on the applicable Additional Term Loan Effective Date pursuant to such increase in the Term Loan Commitment (each such additional Term Loan, an “Additional Term Loan,” and collectively, the “Additional Term Loans”).

(b) Each Additional Term Loan shall be obtained from existing Lenders, or from other banks, financial institutions or investment funds that qualify as Eligible Assignees, in each case in accordance with this Section 4.6. Participation in any Additional Term Loans shall be offered first to each of the existing Lenders (who shall promptly, but in no event later than ten (10) days after such offer, make a determination as to whether to participate in such Additional Term Loan); provided that each such Lender shall have no obligation to provide any portion of such Additional Term Loans. If the amount of the Additional Term Loans requested by the Borrower shall exceed the commitments which the existing Lenders are willing to provide with respect to such Additional Term Loans, then the Borrower may invite other banks, financial institutions and investment funds which meet the requirements of an Eligible Assignee to join this Agreement as Lenders for the portion of such increase not committed to by existing Lenders (each such other bank, financial institution or investment fund, a “New Term Loan Lender” and, collectively with the existing Term Loan Lenders providing increased Term Loan Commitments, the “Increase Term Loan Lenders”). The Administrative Agent is authorized to enter into, on behalf of the Lenders, any amendment to this Agreement or any other Loan Document as may be necessary to incorporate the terms of any Additional Term Loan herein or therein; provided that such amendment shall not modify this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any manner materially adverse to any Lender and shall otherwise be in accordance with Section 14.11 hereof.

(c) The following terms and conditions shall apply to each Additional Term Loan: (i) the Additional Term Loans made under this Section 4.6 shall constitute Obligations of the Borrower and shall be secured with the other Loans on a pari passu basis; (ii) any New Term Loan Lender making Additional Term Loans shall be entitled to the same voting rights as the existing Lenders under the Term Loan Facility and the Additional Term Loans shall receive proceeds of prepayments on the same basis as the Initial Term Loans (except to the extent otherwise specified in Section 4.3 and Section 4.4(b)(iii)); (iii) to the extent requested by the applicable Lenders, the Borrower shall execute such new or replacement Term Notes as are necessary to reflect the Additional Term Loans under this Section 4.6; (iv) the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have received from the Borrower an Officer’s Compliance Certificate in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, demonstrating that, after giving effect to any such Additional Term Loan, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries will be in pro forma compliance with the financial covenants set forth in Article X; (v) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing hereunder as of the Additional Term Loan Effective Date or after giving effect to the making of any such Additional Term Loans; (vi) the representations and warranties made by the Credit Parties and contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be true and correct on and as of the Additional Term Loan Effective Date with the same effect as if made on and as of such date (other than those representations and warranties that by their terms speak as of a particular date, which representations and warranties shall be true and correct as of such particular date); (vii) the amount of such increase in the Term Loan Commitment and any Additional Term Loans obtained thereunder shall not be less than a minimum principal amount of $25,000,000, or any whole multiple of $5,000,000 in excess thereof (unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent), or if less, the maximum amount permitted pursuant to clause (a) above; (viii) the Credit Parties and each Increase Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, a Lender Addition and Acknowledgment Agreement, and (ix) the Administrative Agent shall have received any documents or information, including any joinder agreements, in connection with such increase in the Term Loan Commitment as it may request in its reasonable discretion.

(d) Upon the execution, delivery, acceptance and recording of the Lender Addition and Acknowledgment Agreement, from and after the applicable Additional Term Loan Effective Date, each Increase Lender shall have a Term Loan Commitment as set forth in the Register and all the rights and obligations of a Lender with such a Term Loan Commitment hereunder. The Increase Term Loan Lenders shall make the Additional Term Loans to the Borrower on the Additional Term Loan Effective Date in an amount equal to each such Increase Lender’s commitment as agreed upon pursuant to subsection (b) above.

(e) The Administrative Agent shall maintain a copy of each Lender Addition and Acknowledgment Agreement delivered to it in accordance with Section 14.10(d).

(f) Within five (5) Business Days after receipt of notice, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, in exchange for any surrendered Term Loan Note or Term Loan Notes of any existing Term Loan Lender or with respect to any New Term Loan

Lender, a new Term Loan Note or Term Loan Notes to the order of the applicable Term Loan Lenders in amounts equal to the Term Loan Commitment of such Term Loan Lenders as set forth in the Register. Such new Term Loan Note or Term Loan Notes shall be in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of such Term Loan Commitments, shall be dated as of the Additional Term Loan Effective Date and shall otherwise be in substantially the form of the existing Term Loan Notes. Each surrendered Term Note and/or Term Notes shall be canceled and returned to the Borrower.

(g) The Applicable Margin for the Additional Term Loans shall be determined on the applicable Additional Term Loan Effective Date. If the Applicable Margin for such Additional Term Loans or any Additional Term Loans in existence at such time exceeds the Applicable Margin for the Initial Term Loans, then the Applicable Margin for all Term Loans shall be increased to be equal to the Applicable Margin for such Additional Term Loans as determined on the applicable Additional Term Loan Effective Date. In addition, the Borrower shall repay such Additional Term Loans in accordance with the terms of Section 4.3(b).

after receipt by the Administrative Agent of quarterly financial statements for the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and the accompanying Officer’s Compliance Certificate setting forth the Leverage Ratio of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as of the most recent fiscal quarter end; provided that adjustments in the Applicable Margin also shall be made by the Administrative Agent (A) on the closing date of any Permitted Acquisition following receipt by the Administrative Agent of evidence of pro forma covenant compliance with each covenant contained in Article X (as delivered pursuant to Section 11.4(e) hereof) and (B) on the date of issuance of any equity securities by the Borrower. Subject to Section 5.1(d), in the event the Borrower fails to deliver such financial statements and Officer’s Compliance Certificate, evidence of covenant compliance or notice of issuance of equity securities, as applicable, within the time required by Sections 8.1, 8.2 and 11.4(e) hereof, the Applicable Margin shall be the highest Applicable Margin set forth in clause (i) above until the Adjustment Date following the delivery of such financial statements and Officer’s Compliance Certificate, evidence of covenant compliance or notice of issuance of equity securities, as applicable.

(d) Default Rate. Subject to Section 12.3, at the discretion of the Administrative Agent or as directed by the Required Lenders, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, (i) the Borrower shall no longer have the option to request LIBOR Rate Loans or Swingline Loans, (ii) all outstanding LIBOR Rate Loans shall bear interest at a rate per annum of two percent (2%) in excess of the rate then applicable to LIBOR Rate Loans until the end of the applicable Interest Period and thereafter at a rate equal to two percent (2%) in excess of the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans, and (iii) all outstanding Base Rate Loans, Swingline Loans and other Obligations arising hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to two percent (2%) in excess of the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans, Swingline Loans or such other Obligations arising hereunder or under any other Loan Document.

Interest on each Base Rate Loan and each Swingline Loan shall be payable in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter commencing September 30, 2006; and interest on each LIBOR Rate Loan shall be payable on the last day of each Interest Period applicable thereto, and if such Interest Period extends over three (3) months, at the end of each three (3) month interval during such Interest Period; provided that interest on each Swingline Loan made while the SweepPlus Program is effective shall be payable in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar month. All interest rates, fees and commissions provided hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and assessed for the actual number of days elapsed; provided, that interest on Base Rate Loans shall be computed on the basis of a 365/66-day year and assessed for the actual number of days elapsed.

(f) Maximum Rate. In no contingency or event whatsoever shall the aggregate of all amounts deemed interest hereunder or under any of the Notes charged or collected pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or pursuant to any of the Notes exceed the highest rate permissible under any Applicable Law which a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable hereto. In the event that such a court determines that the Lenders have charged or received interest hereunder in excess of the highest applicable rate, the rate in effect hereunder

shall automatically be reduced to the maximum rate permitted by Applicable Law and the Lenders shall at the Administrative Agent’s option (i) promptly refund to the Borrower any interest received by the Lenders in excess of the maximum lawful rate or (ii) shall apply such excess to the principal balance of the Obligations on a pro rata basis. It is the intent hereof that the Borrower not pay or contract to pay, and that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender receive or contract to receive, directly or indirectly in any manner whatsoever, interest in excess of that which may be paid by the Borrower under Applicable Law.

SECTION 5.2 Notice and Manner of Conversion or Continuation of Loans. Provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, the Borrower shall have the option to (a) convert at any time after the Closing Date all or any portion of any outstanding Base Rate Loans in a principal amount equal to $3,000,000 or any whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof into one or more LIBOR Rate Loans and (b) upon the expiration of any Interest Period, (i) convert all or any part of its outstanding LIBOR Rate Loans in a principal amount equal to $500,000 or a whole multiple of $50,000 in excess thereof into Base Rate Loans or (ii) continue such LIBOR Rate Loans as LIBOR Rate Loans. Whenever the Borrower desires to convert or continue Loans as provided above, the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable prior written notice in the form attached as Exhibit E (a “Notice of Conversion/Continuation”) not later than 11:00 a.m. (Charlotte time) three (3) Business Days before the day on which a proposed conversion or continuation of such Loan is to be effective specifying (A) the Loans to be converted or continued, and, in the case of any LIBOR Rate Loan to be converted or continued, the last day of the Interest Period therefor, (B) the effective date of such conversion or continuation (which shall be a Business Day), (C) the principal amount of such Loans to be converted or continued, and (D) the Interest Period to be applicable to such converted or continued LIBOR Rate Loan. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of such Notice of Conversion/Continuation.

SECTION 5.3 Fees.

(a) Revolving Credit Commitment Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, a non-refundable commitment fee at a rate per annum determined in accordance with Section 5.1(c) (the “Commitment Fee Rate”) on the average daily unused portion of the Revolving Credit Commitment; provided that the amount of outstanding Swingline Loans shall not be considered usage of the Revolving Credit Commitment for the purpose of calculating such commitment fee. The commitment fee shall be payable in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter during the term of this Agreement commencing September 30, 2006 and ending on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date. Such commitment fee shall be distributed by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Lenders’ respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages.

(b) Arrangement Fees. The Borrower shall pay to Wachovia, for its account, on the Closing Date the arrangement fee as set forth in the Fee Letter.

(c) Administrative Agent’s and Other Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its account, the annual administrative fee set forth in the Fee Letter and each other fee set forth in the Fee Letter.

SECTION 5.4 Manner of Payment.

(a) Each payment by the Borrower on account of the principal of or interest on the Revolving Credit Loans or of any fee, commission or other amounts (including the Reimbursement Obligation) payable to the Lenders under this Agreement with respect to the Revolving Credit Loans, the Swingline Loans, the Letters of Credit, any Revolving Credit Note or the Swingline Note shall be made not later than 1:00 p.m. (Charlotte time) on the date specified for payment under this Agreement to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Office for the account of the Lenders (other than as set forth below) pro rata in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages (except as specified below), in Dollars, in immediately available funds and shall be made without any set-off, counterclaim or deduction whatsoever, (b) each payment by the Borrower on account of the principal of or interest on the Term Loans or of any fee, commission or other amounts payable to the Lenders under this Agreement with respect to the Term Loans or any Term Note shall be made in like manner, except for the account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Term Loan Percentages and (c) any other amounts payable to the Lenders under this Agreement shall be made in like manner, except for the account of the Lenders pro rata based on their respective share in the Obligation with respect to which such payment was received. Any payment received after such time but before 2:00 p.m. (Charlotte time) on such day shall be deemed a payment on such date for the purposes of Section 12.1, but for all other purposes shall be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day. Any payment received after 2:00 p.m. (Charlotte time) shall be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day for all purposes. Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of each such payment, the Administrative Agent shall distribute to each Lender at its address for notices set forth herein its pro rata share of such payment in accordance with such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage, or Term Loan Percentage, as applicable, (except as specified below) and shall wire advice of the amount of such credit to each Lender. Each payment to the Administrative Agent of the Issuing Lender’s fees or L/C Participants’ commissions payable pursuant to Section 3.3(a) shall be made in like manner, but for the account of the Issuing Lender or the L/C Participants, as the case may be. Each payment to the Administrative Agent of Administrative Agent’s fees or expenses shall be made for the account of the Administrative Agent. Each payment to the Administrative Agent with respect to the Swingline Note (including, without limitation, the Swingline Lender’s fees or expenses) shall be made for the account of the Swingline Lender. Any amount payable to any Lender under Sections 5.8, 5.9, 5.10, 5.11 or 14.2 shall be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lender. Subject to Section 5.1(b)(ii), if any payment under this Agreement or any Note shall be specified to be made upon a day which is not a Business Day, it shall be made on the next succeeding day which is a Business Day and such extension of time shall in such case be included in computing any interest if payable along with such payment.

SECTION 5.5 Crediting of Payments and Proceeds. In the event that the Borrower shall fail to pay any of the Obligations when due and the Obligations have been accelerated pursuant to Section 12.2, all payments received by the Lenders upon the Obligations and all net proceeds from the enforcement of the Obligations shall be applied:

First, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts, including attorney fees, payable to the Administrative Agent in its

capacity as such and the Issuing Lender in its capacity as such (ratably among the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause First payable to them);

Second, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities and other amounts (other than principal and interest) payable to the Lenders, including attorney fees (ratably among the Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Second payable to them);

Third, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid interest on the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations and any Hedging Obligations (including any termination payments and any accrued and unpaid interest thereon) (ratably among the Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Third payable to them);

Fourth, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations (ratably among the Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Fourth held by them);

Fifth, to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender, to cash collateralize any L/C Obligations then outstanding; and

Last, the balance, if any, after all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, to the Borrower or as otherwise required by Applicable Law.

SECTION 5.6 Adjustments. If any Lender (a “Benefited Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of the Obligations owing to it, or interest thereon, or if any Lender shall at any time receive any collateral in respect to the Obligations owing to it (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off or otherwise), in a greater proportion than the pro rata distribution to the extent required by Section 5.4, such Benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders such portion of each such other Lender’s Extensions of Credit or other Obligations, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably with each of the Lenders; provided, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. Each Credit Party agrees that each Lender so purchasing a portion of another Lender’s Extensions of Credit or other Obligations may exercise all rights of payment (including, without limitation, rights of set-off) with respect to such portion as fully as if such Lender were the direct holder of such portion.

SECTION 5.7 Nature of Obligations of Lenders Regarding Extensions of Credit; Assumption by the Administrative Agent. The obligations of the Lenders under this Agreement to make the Loans and issue or participate in Letters of Credit are several and are not joint or joint and several. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to a proposed borrowing date that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s ratable portion of the amount to be borrowed on such date (which notice shall not release such Lender of its obligations hereunder), the Administrative

Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the proposed borrowing date in accordance with Sections 2.3(b) and 4.2 and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If such amount is made available to the Administrative Agent on a date after such borrowing date, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent on demand an amount, until paid, equal to the product of (a) the amount not made available by such Lender in accordance with the terms hereof, times (b) the daily average Federal Funds Rate during such period as determined by the Administrative Agent, times (c) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse from and including such borrowing date to the date on which such amount not made available by such Lender in accordance with the terms hereof shall have become immediately available to the Administrative Agent and the denominator of which is 360. A certificate of the Administrative Agent with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 5.7 shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. If such Lender’s ratable portion of such borrowing is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three (3) Business Days after such borrowing date, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount made available by the Administrative Agent with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to Base Rate Loans hereunder, on demand, from the Borrower. The failure of any Lender to make its ratable portion of any Loan available shall not relieve it or any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its ratable portion of such Loan available on such borrowing date, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make its ratable portion of such Loan available on the borrowing date. Notwithstanding anything set forth herein to the contrary, any Lender that fails to make available its ratable portion of any Loan shall not (a) have any voting or consent rights under or with respect to any Loan Documents or (b) constitute a “Lender” (or be included in the calculation of Required Lenders hereunder) for any voting or consent rights under or with respect to any Loan Document.

SECTION 5.8 Changed Circumstances.

(a) Circumstances Affecting LIBOR Rate Availability. If with respect to any Interest Period the Administrative Agent or any Lender (after consultation with Administrative Agent) shall determine that, by reason of circumstances affecting the foreign exchange and interbank markets generally, deposits in eurodollars, in the applicable amounts are not being quoted via Telerate Page 3750 or offered to the Administrative Agent or such Lender for such Interest Period, then the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrower. Thereafter, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that such circumstances no longer exist, the obligation of the Lenders to make LIBOR Rate Loans and the right of the Borrower to convert any Loan to or continue any Loan as a LIBOR Rate Loan shall be suspended, and the Borrower shall repay in full (or cause to be repaid in full) the then outstanding principal amount of each such LIBOR Rate Loan together with accrued interest thereon, on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loan or convert the then outstanding principal amount of each such LIBOR Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan as of the last day of such Interest Period.

(b) Laws Affecting LIBOR Rate Availability. If, after the date hereof, the introduction of, or any change in, any Applicable Law or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency

charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender (or any of its Lending Offices) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, shall make it unlawful or impossible for any of the Lenders (or any of their respective Lending Offices) to honor its obligations hereunder to make or maintain any LIBOR Rate Loan, such Lender shall promptly give notice thereof to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice to the Borrower and the other Lenders. Thereafter, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that such circumstances no longer exist, (i) the obligations of the Lenders to make LIBOR Rate Loans and the right of the Borrower to convert any Loan or continue any Loan as a LIBOR Rate Loan shall be suspended and thereafter the Borrower may select only Base Rate Loans hereunder, and (ii) if any of the Lenders may not lawfully continue to maintain a LIBOR Rate Loan to the end of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto as a LIBOR Rate Loan, the applicable LIBOR Rate Loan shall immediately be converted to a Base Rate Loan for the remainder of such Interest Period.

(c) Increased Costs. If, after the date hereof, the introduction of, or any change in, any Applicable Law, or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any of the Lenders (or any of their respective Lending Offices) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency:

(i) shall subject any of the Lenders (or any of their respective Lending Offices) to any tax, duty or other charge with respect to any Note, Letter of Credit or Application or shall change the basis of taxation of payments to any of the Lenders (or any of their respective Lending Offices) of the principal of or interest on any Note, Letter of Credit or Application or any other amounts due under this Agreement in respect thereof (except for changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of any of the Lenders or any of their respective Lending Offices imposed by the jurisdiction in which such Lender is organized or is or should be qualified to do business or such Lending Office is located); or

(ii) shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve (including, without limitation, any imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), special deposit, insurance or capital or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by any of the Lenders (or any of their respective Lending Offices) or shall impose on any of the Lenders (or any of their respective Lending Offices) or the foreign exchange and interbank markets any other condition affecting any Note;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the costs to any of the Lenders of maintaining any LIBOR Rate Loan or issuing or participating in Letters of Credit or to reduce the yield or amount of any sum received or receivable by any of the Lenders under this Agreement or under the Notes in respect of a LIBOR Rate Loan or Letter of Credit or Application, then such Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower of such fact and demand compensation therefor and, within fifteen (15) days after such notice by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such

additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Lenders for such increased cost or reduction. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower of any event of which it has knowledge which will entitle such Lender to compensation pursuant to this Section 5.8(c); provided, that the Administrative Agent shall incur no liability whatsoever to the Lenders or the Borrower in the event it fails to do so. The amount of such compensation shall be determined, in the applicable Lender’s sole discretion, based upon the assumption that such Lender funded its ratable portion of the LIBOR Rate Loans in the London interbank or domestic certificate of deposit market, as applicable, and using any reasonable attribution or averaging methods which such Lender deems appropriate and practical. A certificate of such Lender setting forth the basis for determining such amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender shall be forwarded to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent and shall be conclusively presumed to be correct save for manifest error.

SECTION 5.9 Indemnity. The Borrower hereby indemnifies each of the Lenders against any loss or expense which may arise or be attributable to each Lender’s obtaining, liquidating or employing deposits or other funds acquired to effect, fund or maintain any Loan (a) as a consequence of any failure by the Borrower to make any payment when due of any amount due hereunder in connection with a LIBOR Rate Loan, (b) due to any failure of the Borrower to borrow, continue or convert on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Revolving Credit/Swingline Borrowing, Notice of Term Loan Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/ Continuation or (c) due to any payment, prepayment or conversion of any LIBOR Rate Loan on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor. The amount of such loss or expense shall be determined, in the applicable Lender’s sole discretion, based upon the assumption that such Lender funded its ratable portion of the LIBOR Rate Loans in the London interbank or domestic certificate of deposit market, as applicable, and using any reasonable attribution or averaging methods which such Lender deems appropriate and practical. A certificate of such Lender setting forth the basis for determining such amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender shall be forwarded to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent and shall be conclusively presumed to be correct save for manifest error.

SECTION 5.10 Capital Requirements. If either (a) the introduction of, or any change in, or in the interpretation of, any Applicable Law or (b) compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or comparable agency or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of, or has affected or would affect the amount of capital required to be maintained by, any Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender as a consequence of, or with reference to the Commitments and other commitments of this type, below the rate which the Lender or such other corporation could have achieved but for such introduction, change or compliance, then within five (5) Business Days after written demand by any such Lender, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender from time to time as specified by such Lender additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or other corporation for such reduction. A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent by such Lender, shall, in the absence of manifest error, be presumed to be correct and binding for all purposes.

(c) Indemnity.

SECTION 5.14 Evidence of Indebtedness.

(a) Extensions of Credit. The Extensions of Credit made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Extensions of Credit made by the Lenders to the Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.

(b) Participations. In addition to the accounts and records referred to in subsection (a), each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records evidencing the purchases and sales by such Lender of participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by the Administrative Agent and the accounts and records of any Lender in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.

(d) Compliance of Agreement, Loan Documents and Borrowing with Laws, Etc. The execution, delivery and performance by each of the Credit Parties of the Loan Documents to which each such Person is a party, in accordance with their respective terms, the Extensions of Credit hereunder and the transactions contemplated hereby do not and will not, by the passage of time, the giving of notice or otherwise, (i) require any material Governmental Approval or violate any material Applicable Law relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, (ii) conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute a default under the articles of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational documents of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any material indenture, agreement or other instrument to which such Person is a party or by which any of its properties may be bound or any Governmental Approval relating to such Person, or (iii) result in or require the creation or imposition of any Lien upon or with respect to any property now owned or hereafter acquired by such Person other than Liens arising under the Loan Documents.

For purposes of this Section 7.1(u) only, “Material” shall mean any such actions, suits or proceedings with an actual or potential amount in controversy greater than $5,000,000 or that would have or could lead to a Material Adverse Effect on the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries.

(v) Absence of Defaults. No event has occurred or is continuing (i) which constitutes a Default or an Event of Default or (ii) which constitutes, or which with the passage of time or giving of notice or both would constitute, a default or event of default by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries under any Material Contract or any judgment, decree or order to which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective properties may be bound or which would require the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to make any payment thereunder prior to the scheduled maturity date therefor (except, with respect to clause (ii), where such default or defaults, if any, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect).

(w) Senior Debt Status.

No document furnished or written statement made to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with the negotiation, preparation or execution of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents contains or will contain any untrue statement of a fact material to the creditworthiness of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or omits or will omit to state a fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein not misleading. The Borrower is not aware of any facts which it has not disclosed in writing to the Administrative Agent having a Material Adverse Effect, or insofar as the Borrower can now foresee, which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.

ARTICLE XIII

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

SECTION 13.1 Appointment. Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably designates and appoints Wachovia as Administrative Agent of such Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents for the term hereof and each such Lender irrevocably authorizes Wachovia as Administrative Agent for such Lender, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and such other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement or such other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein and therein, or any fiduciary relationship

with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent. Any reference to the Administrative Agent in this Article XIII shall be deemed to refer to the Administrative Agent solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent and not in its capacity as a Lender.

SECTION 13.2 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its respective duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by the Administrative Agent with reasonable care.

SECTION 13.3 Exculpatory Provisions. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact, Subsidiaries or Affiliates shall be (a) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (except for actions occasioned solely by its or such Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct), or (b) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or for any failure of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Administrative Agent shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries.

SECTION 13.4 Reliance by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless such Note shall have been transferred in accordance with Section 14.10 hereof. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders (or, when expressly required hereby or by the relevant other Loan Document, all the Lenders) as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the Notes in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or, when expressly required hereby, all the Lenders), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Notes.

SECTION 13.5 Notice of Default. Except for any Default or Event of Default under Section 12.1(a) or Section 12.1(b), the Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder unless it has received notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, it shall promptly give notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders (or, when expressly required hereby, all of the Lenders); provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to take such action, or refrain from taking such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable and in the best interests of the Lenders, except to the extent other provisions of this Agreement expressly require that any such action be taken or not be taken only with the consent and authorization or the request of the Lenders or Required Lenders as applicable.

SECTION 13.6 Non-Reliance on the Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact, Subsidiaries or Affiliates has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and made its own decision to make its Loans and issue or participate in Letters of Credit hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder or by the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries which may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact, Subsidiaries or Affiliates.

SECTION 13.7 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such and (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower

and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), ratably according to the respective amounts of their Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages or Term Loan Percentages, as applicable, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time (including, without limitation, at any time following the payment of the Notes or any Reimbursement Obligation) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or any documents, reports or other information provided to the Administrative Agent or any Lender or contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting solely from the Administrative Agent’s bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section 13.7 shall survive the payment of the Notes, any Reimbursement Obligation and all other amounts payable hereunder and the termination of this Agreement.

SECTION 13.8 The Administrative Agent in Its Individual Capacity. The Administrative Agent and its respective Subsidiaries and Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower as though the Administrative Agent were not the Administrative Agent hereunder. With respect to any Loans made or renewed by it and any Note issued to it and with respect to any Letter of Credit issued by it or participated in by it, the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity.

SECTION 13.9 Resignation of the Administrative Agent; Successor Administrative Agent. Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor as provided below, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of the Borrower, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, to appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which successor shall have minimum capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which successor shall have minimum capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 13.9 shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Administrative Agent.

SECTION 13.10 Collateral and Guaranty Matters. The Lenders irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion:

(a) to release any Lien on any Collateral granted to or held by the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of itself and the Lenders, under any Loan Document (i) upon repayment of the outstanding principal of and all accrued interest on the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations, payment of all outstanding fees and expenses hereunder, the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitment and the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit, (ii) that is sold or to be sold as part of or in connection with any sale permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or (iii) subject to Section 14.11, if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders;

(b) to subordinate or release any Lien on any Collateral granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Permitted Lien; and

(c) to release any Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under the Subsidiary Guaranty Agreement, the Collateral Agreement and any other Loan Documents if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder.

Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under the Subsidiary Guaranty Agreement pursuant to this Section.

SECTION 14.1 Notices.

(a) Method of Communication. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all notices and communications hereunder shall be in writing (for purposes hereof, the term “writing” shall include information in electronic format such as electronic mail and internet web pages), or by telephone subsequently confirmed in writing. Any notice shall be effective if delivered by hand delivery or sent via electronic mail, posting on an internet web page, telecopy, recognized overnight courier service or certified mail, return receipt requested, and shall be presumed to be received by a party hereto (i) on the date of delivery if delivered by hand, or sent by electronic mail, posting on the Intralinks internet web page or any similar internet or intranet sites (provided the recipients of such notice have been made specifically aware of the posting of such notice by any other method permitted by this Section 14.1(a)) or telecopy, (ii) on the next Business Day if sent by recognized overnight courier service and (iii) on the third Business Day following the date sent by certified mail, return receipt requested.

SECTION 14.3 Set-off. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under Applicable Law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon and after the occurrence of any Event of Default and during the continuance thereof, the Lenders and any assignee or participant of a Lender in accordance with Section 14.10 are hereby authorized by the Borrower at any time or from time to time, without notice to the Borrower or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, including, but not limited to, indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured) and any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by the Lenders, or any such assignee or participant to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or any other Credit Party against and on account of the Obligations irrespective of whether or not (a) the Lenders shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or (b) the Administrative Agent shall have declared any or all of the Obligations to be due and payable as permitted by Section 12.2 and although such Obligations shall be contingent or unmatured. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Lender agrees to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

SECTION 14.4 Governing Law. This Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents, unless otherwise expressly set forth therein, shall be governed by, construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without reference to the conflicts of law principles thereof.

(a) Jurisdiction. The Borrower and each other Credit Party hereby irrevocably consents to the personal jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (and any courts from which an appeal from any of such courts must or may be taken), in any action, claim or other proceeding arising out of any dispute in connection with this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents, any rights or obligations hereunder or thereunder, or the performance of such rights and obligations. The Borrower and each other Credit Party hereby irrevocably consents to the service of a summons and complaint and other process in any action, claim or proceeding brought by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with this Agreement, the Notes or the other Loan Documents, any rights or obligations hereunder or thereunder, or the performance of such rights and obligations, on behalf of itself or its property, in the manner specified in Section 14.1. Nothing in this Section 14.5 shall affect the right of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by Applicable Law or affect the right of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to bring any action or proceeding against the Borrower or any other Credit Party or its properties in the courts of any other jurisdictions.

(b) Venue. The Borrower and each other Credit Party hereby irrevocably waives any objection it may have now or in the future to the laying of venue in the aforesaid jurisdiction in any action, claim or other proceeding arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, any other Loan Document or the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder or thereunder. The Borrower and each other Credit Party irrevocably waives, in connection with such action, claim or proceeding, any plea or claim that the action, claim or other proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

SECTION 14.6 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

SECTION 14.7 Reversal of Payments. To the extent the Borrower makes a payment or payments to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent receives any payment or proceeds of the collateral which payments or proceeds or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or proceeds repaid, the Obligations or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 14.8 Injunctive Relief; Punitive Damages.

(a) The Borrower recognizes that, in the event the Borrower fails to perform, observe or discharge any of their obligations or liabilities under this Agreement, any remedy of law may prove to be inadequate relief to the Lenders. Therefore, the Borrower agrees that the Lenders, at the Lenders’ option, shall be entitled to temporary and permanent injunctive relief in any such case without the necessity of proving actual damages.

(b) The Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower (on behalf of itself and the other Credit Parties) hereby agree that no such Person shall have a remedy of punitive or exemplary damages against any other party to a Loan Document and each such Person hereby waives any right or claim to punitive or exemplary damages that they may now have or may arise in the future in connection with any judicial proceeding, dispute, claim or controversy arising out of, connected with or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

SECTION 14.9 Accounting Matters. All financial and accounting terms, calculations, measurements and computations made for any purpose relating to this Agreement, including, without limitation, all computations utilized by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to determine compliance with any covenant contained herein, shall, except as otherwise expressly contemplated hereby or unless there is an express written direction by the Administrative Agent to the contrary agreed to by the Borrower, be performed or construed in

accordance with GAAP as in effect on the Closing Date. In the event that changes in GAAP shall be mandated by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or any similar accounting body of comparable standing, or shall be recommended by the certified public accountants of the Borrower, to the extent that such changes would modify such accounting terms or the interpretation or computation thereof, such changes shall be followed in defining such accounting terms only from and after the date the Borrower and the Lenders shall have amended this Agreement to the extent necessary to reflect any such changes in the financial covenants and other terms and conditions of this Agreement.

SECTION 14.10 Successors and Assigns; Participations.

(a) Benefit of Agreement. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Credit Parties, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, all future holders of the Notes, and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Borrower and the other Credit Parties shall not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of each Lender.

(b) Assignment by Lenders. Each Lender may, in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with Applicable Law, sell or assign to (1) any Lender, any Affiliate of a Lender or, in the case of the Term Loans, any Approved Fund and (2) with the consent of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower (provided that no such consents shall be required for assignments of Term Loans by the Administrative Agent to an Eligible Assignee that are completed within ten (10) Business Days of the Closing Date or the Additional Term Loan Effective Date, as applicable), which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, assign to one or more other Eligible Assignees (any of the foregoing assignees or purchasers, a “Purchasing Lender”) all or a portion of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, all or a portion of the Extensions of Credit at the time owing to it and the Notes held by it); provided that:

(i) each such assignment shall be of a constant, and not a varying percentage of, the applicable Commitment of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement;

(ii) if less than all of the assigning Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment or Term Loan Commitment, as applicable, is to be assigned, (A) the Revolving Credit Commitment so assigned shall not be less than $5,000,000 and (B) the Term Loan Commitment and/or the Term Loans so assigned shall not be less than $5,000,000 (or any lesser amount otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower); provided that no minimum assignment amount shall be applicable with respect to any assignment made to an existing Lender, to an Affiliate thereof, or (with respect to any Term Loan) to an Approved Fund;

(iii) the Purchasing Lender shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent all United States Internal Revenue Service Forms required pursuant to Section 5.11(e) and all of the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, an Assignment and Acceptance

substantially in the form of Exhibit G attached hereto (an “Assignment and Acceptance”), together with (to the extent requested by any Purchasing Lender) any Note or Notes subject to such assignment;

(iv) where consent of the Borrower to an assignment to a Purchasing Lender is required hereunder (including consent to an assignment to an Approved Fund), the Borrower shall be deemed to have given its consent five (5) Business Days after the date written notice thereof has been received by the Borrower (after delivery by the assigning Lender through the Administrative Agent) unless such consent is expressly refused by the Borrower prior to such fifth (5^th) Business Day;

(v) such assignment shall not, without the consent of the Borrower, require the Borrower to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission or apply to or qualify the Loans or the Notes under the blue sky laws of any state; and

(vi) the assigning Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent an assignment fee of $3,500 upon the execution by such Lender of the Assignment and Acceptance; provided that no such fee shall be payable upon any assignment by a Lender to an Affiliate thereof; and provided further that, in any case of contemporaneous assignments by a Lender (including a group of affiliated Lenders that are funds managed by the same investment advisor) to a single assignee or more than one fund managed by the same investment advisor (which funds are not then Lenders hereunder), only a single $3,500 fee shall be payable for all such contemporaneous assignments.

Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, (A) the Purchasing Lender thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereby and (B) the Lender thereunder shall, to the extent provided in such assignment, be released from its obligations under this Agreement.

(c) Rights and Duties Upon Assignment. By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the assigning Lender thereunder and the Purchasing Lender thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as set forth in such Assignment and Acceptance.

(d) Register. The Administrative Agent shall maintain a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the amount of the Extensions of Credit with respect to each Lender from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(e) Issuance of New Notes. Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and a Purchasing Lender together with any Note or Notes (if

Such new Note or Notes shall be in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of such surrendered Note or Notes, shall be dated the effective date of such Assignment and Acceptance and shall otherwise be in substantially the form of the assigned Notes delivered to the assigning Lender. Each surrendered Note or Notes shall be canceled and returned to the Borrower. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any Lender which has not been issued a Note or Notes hereunder may at any time deliver a written request for a Note or Notes to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower. Within five (5) Business Days after receipt of notice (unless otherwise agreed to by such Lender), the Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, a Note or Notes (as applicable) to the order of such Lender in amounts equal to the Revolving Credit Commitment or the Term Loan Commitment, as applicable, of such Lender. Upon receipt thereby, the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver such Note or Notes to such Lender.

(f) Participations. Each Lender may, without notice to or the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, in the ordinary course of its commercial banking business or financial institution business and in accordance with Applicable Law, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (any such bank or other entity, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Extensions of Credit and the Notes held by it); provided that:

(i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Revolving Credit Commitment and/or its Term Loan Commitment) shall remain unchanged;

(ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations;

(iii) such Lender shall remain the holder of the Notes held by it for all purposes of this Agreement;
