(ii) Participation. Immediately upon Issuing Bank's issuance of any LC, Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have sold and transferred to each other Lender, and each other Lender shall be deemed irrevocably and unconditionally to have purchased and received from Issuing Bank, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation to the extent of such Lender's Commitment Percentage in the LC and all applicable rights of Issuing Bank in the LC (other than rights to receive certain fees provided in Section 2.3(c) to be for Issuing Bank's sole account).

(iii) Reimbursement Obligation. To induce Issuing Bank to issue and maintain LCs, and to induce Lenders to participate in issued LCs, Borrower agrees to pay or reimburse Issuing Bank (A) on the first (1st) Business Day after Issuing Bank notifies Administrative Agent and Borrower that it has made payment under a LC, the amount paid by Issuing Bank, and (B) within five (5) Business Days after demand, the amount of any additional fees Issuing Bank customarily charges for amending LCs Agreements, for honoring drafts under LCs, and for taking similar action in connection with letters of credit. If Borrower has not reimbursed Issuing Bank for any drafts paid by the date on which reimbursement is required under this Section, then Administrative Agent is irrevocably authorized to fund Borrower's reimbursement obligations as a Base Rate Loan if no Event of Default exists. The proceeds of such Loan shall be advanced directly to Issuing Bank to pay Borrower's unpaid reimbursement obligations. If an Event of Default exists, then Borrower's reimbursement obligation shall constitute a demand obligation. Borrower's obligations under this Section are absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim, or defense to payment that Borrower may have at any time against any Credit Party or any other Person. From the date that Issuing Bank pays a draft under a LC until Borrower either reimburses or is obligated to reimburse Issuing Bank for that draft under this Section, the amount of such draft bears interest payable to Issuing Bank at the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans. From the due date of the respective amounts due under this Section, to the date paid (including any payment from proceeds of a Base Rate Loan), unpaid reimbursement amounts accrue interest that is payable on demand at the Base Rate plus two percent (2%).

(iv) General. Issuing Bank shall promptly notify Administrative Agent and Borrower of the date and amount of any draft presented for honor under any LC (but failure to give notice will not affect Borrower's obligations under this Agreement). Issuing Bank shall pay the requested amount upon presentment of a draft unless presentment on its face does not comply with the terms of the applicable LC. When making payment, Issuing Bank may disregard (A) any default or potential default that exists under any other agreement, and (B) obligations under any other agreement that have or have not been performed by the beneficiary or any other Person (and Issuing Bank is not liable for any of those obligations). Borrower's reimbursement obligations to Issuing Bank and Lenders, and each Lender's obligations to Issuing Bank, under this Section are absolute and unconditional irrespective of, and Issuing Bank is not responsible for, (1) the validity, enforceability, sufficiency, accuracy, or

genuineness of documents or endorsements (even if they are in any respect invalid, unenforceable, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent, or forged), (2) any dispute by any Company with or any Company's claims, setoffs, defenses, counterclaims, or other rights against any Credit Party or any other Person, or (3) the occurrence of any Potential Default or Event of Default.

(v) Obligation of Lenders. If Borrower fails to reimburse Issuing Bank as provided in Section 2.1(e)(iii) by the date on which reimbursement is due under such Section, and a Loan cannot be advanced to satisfy the reimbursement obligations, then Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of Borrower's failure, of the date and amount paid, and of each Lender's Commitment Percentage of the unreimbursed amount. Each Lender shall promptly and unconditionally make available to Administrative Agent in immediately available funds its Commitment Percentage of the unpaid reimbursement obligation. Funds are due and payable to Administrative Agent before the close of business on the Business Day when Administrative Agent gives notice to each Lender of Borrower's reimbursement failure (if notice is given before 12:00 noon) or on the next succeeding Business Day (if notice is given after 12:00 noon). All amounts payable by any Lender accrue interest after the due date from the day the applicable draft or draw is paid by Administrative Agent to (but not including) the date the amount is paid by such Lender to Administrative Agent at the Federal Funds Effective Rate for three (3) Business Days and thereafter at the Base Rate. Upon receipt of such funds, Administrative Agent shall make them available to Issuing Bank.

(vi) Duties of Issuing Bank. Issuing Bank agrees with each Lender and Borrower that it will exercise and give the same care and attention to each LC as it gives to its other letters of credit. Each Lender and Borrower agree that, in paying any draft under any LC, Issuing Bank has no responsibility to obtain any document (other than any documents expressly required by the respective LC) or to ascertain or inquire as to any document's validity, enforceability, sufficiency, accuracy, or genuineness or the authority of any Person delivering it. Neither Issuing Bank nor its Representatives will be liable to any Lender or Borrower for any LC's use or for any beneficiary's acts or omissions (including, without limitation, any acts or omissions constituting ordinary negligence). Any action, inaction, error, delay, or omission taken or suffered by Issuing Bank or any of its Representatives in connection with any LC, applicable drafts or documents, or the transmission, dispatch, or delivery of any related message or advice, if in good faith and in conformity with applicable Governmental Requirements and in accordance with (A) the rules of the "International Standby Practices 1998" published by the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice (or such later version thereof as may be in effect at the time of issuance) shall apply to each standby LC, and (B) the rules of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, as most recently published by the International Chamber of Commerce (the "ICC") at the time of issuance (including the ICC decision published by the Commission on Banking Technique and Practice on April 6, 1998 regarding the European single currency (euro)) shall apply to each commercial LC, is binding upon Borrower and Lenders and, except as provided in Section 2.1(c), does not place Issuing Bank or any of its Representatives under any resulting liability to Borrower or any Lender. Issuing Bank is not liable to Borrower or any Lender for any action taken or omitted, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, by Issuing Bank or its Representatives in connection with any LC.

(vii) Cash Collateral. On the Maturity Date and if requested by Requisite Lenders while a Potential Default or Event of Default exists, Borrower shall provide Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Credit Parties, cash collateral in an amount to equal the then-existing LC Exposure.

(viii) INDEMNIFICATION. BORROWER SHALL PROTECT, INDEMNIFY, PAY, AND SAVE EACH CREDIT PARTY AND ITS RESPECTIVE REPRESENTATIVES HARMLESS FROM AND AGAINST ANY AND ALL CLAIMS, DEMANDS, LIABILITIES, DAMAGES, COSTS, CHARGES, AND EXPENSES (INCLUDING REASONABLE ATTORNEYS' FEES) WHICH ANY OF THEM MAY INCUR OR BE SUBJECT TO AS A CONSEQUENCE OF THE ISSUANCE OF ANY LC, ANY DISPUTE ABOUT ANY LC, OR THE FAILURE OF ISSUING BANK TO HONOR A DRAW REQUEST UNDER ANY LC. ALTHOUGH EACH CREDIT PARTY AND ITS RESPECTIVE REPRESENTATIVES HAVE THE RIGHT TO BE INDEMNIFIED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT FOR ITS OR THEIR OWN ORDINARY NEGLIGENCE, NO PERSON IS ENTITLED TO INDEMNITY UNDER THE FOREGOING FOR ITS OWN GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT (INCLUDING A KNOWING AND WILLFUL BREACH OF ITS MATERIAL OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR AN LC AGREEMENT) AND NO OTHER CREDIT PARTY SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT TO BE INDEMNIFIED HEREUNDER BY BORROWER AS A RESULT OF THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILFUL MISCONDUCT OF ISSUING BANK.

(ix) LC Agreements. Although referenced in any LC, terms of any particular agreement or other obligation to the beneficiary are not incorporated into this Agreement in any manner. The fees and other amounts payable with respect to each LC are as provided in this Agreement, drafts under each LC are part of the Obligations, only the events specified in this Agreement as an Event of Default shall constitute a default under any LC or LC Agreement, and the terms of this Agreement control any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and any LC Agreement.

(x) Existing LCs. Upon the satisfaction of each of the conditions precedent to the initial Loans and the initial issuance of LCs under the LC Subfacility set forth in Section 3, each of the Existing LCs shall be deemed to be an LC issued hereunder for all purposes; provided that no issuance fee shall be payable pursuant to Section 2.3(c)(ii) with respect to such Existing LCs (except in connection with a renewal or extension of such LCs).

(f) Right to Remove or Replace Lender. If any Lender (x) shall request compensation or indemnification pursuant to Section 2.7 or shall provide notice to Borrower that it is unable to make or maintain Eurodollar Loans pursuant to Section 2.6(b) and such request or notice is not applicable to all Lenders, or (y) shall fail to make available its Loan pursuant to Section 2.1(c), then Borrower may either (i) terminate the Commitment of such Lender in whole but not in part, by (A) giving such Lender and Administrative Agent not less than five (5) Business Days' written notice thereof, which notice shall be irrevocable and effective upon receipt thereof by such Lender and Administrative Agent and shall specify the date of such termination, and (B) paying such Lender on such date the outstanding principal of, and interest on, all Loans made by such Lender and any other Obligation owed to such Lender, if any, or (ii) terminate the Commitment of such Lender in whole but not in part, pursuant to the provisions of Section 9.1, by proposing the introduction of a replacement Lender satisfactory to Administrative Agent, or obtaining the agreement of one or more existing Lenders, to assume the entire amount of the Commitment of the Lender whose Commitment is being terminated, on the effective date of such termination. Upon the satisfaction of all of the foregoing conditions, such Lender that is being terminated shall cease to be a "Lender" for purposes of this Agreement, provided that Borrower shall continue to be obligated to such Lender under Section 9.3 with respect to the indemnification obligations described in such Section arising prior to such termination.

2.2 Interest on the Loans.

(a) Rate of Interest.

(i) Subject to the provisions of Sections 2.6 and 2.7, the Loans shall bear interest on the unpaid Principal Debt from the date made through maturity (whether by acceleration or

otherwise) at a rate determined by reference to the Base Rate or the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate, as the case may be. The applicable basis for determining the rate of interest with respect to any Loan shall be selected by Borrower initially at the time a Notice of Borrowing is given with respect to such Loan pursuant to Section 2.1(b). The basis for determining the interest rate with respect to any Loan may be changed from time to time pursuant to Section 2.2(d). If on any day a Loan is outstanding with respect to which notice has not been delivered to Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement specifying the applicable basis for determining the rate of interest, then for that day such Loan shall bear interest determined by reference to the Base Rate.

(ii) Subject to the provisions of Sections 2.2(e) and 2.7, the Loans shall bear interest through maturity as follows:

(A) if a Base Rate Loan, then at the sum of the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans; or

(B) if a Eurodollar Rate Loan, then at the sum of the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate plus the Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Rate Loans.

(b) Interest Periods. In connection with each Eurodollar Rate Loan, Borrower may, pursuant to the applicable Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation, as the case may be, select an interest period (each an "Interest Period") to be applicable to such Loan, which Interest Period shall be, at Borrower's option, either a one (1), two (2), three (3), or six (6) month period; provided that:

(i) the initial Interest Period for the Eurodollar Rate Loan shall commence on the Funding Date in respect of such Loan, in the case of a Loan initially made as a Eurodollar Rate Loan, or on the date specified in the applicable Notice of Conversion/Continuation, in the case of a Loan converted to a Eurodollar Rate Loan;

(ii) in the case of immediately successive Interest Periods applicable to a Eurodollar Rate Loan continued as such pursuant to a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, each successive Interest Period shall commence on the day on which the next preceding Interest Period expires;

(iii) if an Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day that is not a Business Day, then such Interest Period shall expire on the next succeeding Business Day; provided that, if any Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day that is not a Business Day but is a day of the month after which no further Business Day occurs in such month, then such Interest Period shall expire on the next preceding Business Day;

(iv) any Interest Period that begins on the last Business Day of a calendar month (or on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at the end of such Interest Period) shall, subject to Section 2.2(b)(v), end on the last Business Day of a calendar month;

(v) there shall be no more than five (5) Interest Periods outstanding at any time; and

(vi) if Borrower fails to specify an Interest Period for any Eurodollar Rate Loan in the applicable Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation, then Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one (1) month.

(c) Interest Payments. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.2(d) , interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on and to each Interest Payment Date applicable to such Loan, upon any prepayment of such Loan (to the extent accrued on the amount being prepaid) and at maturity (including final maturity); provided, however, that if any Loans that are Base Rate Loans are

prepaid pursuant to Section 2.4(b), then interest on such Loans through the date of such prepayment shall be payable on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date applicable to Base Rate Loans (or, if earlier, upon the final termination for any reason of the Total Commitment).

(d) Conversion or Continuation.

(i) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.6, Borrower shall have the option (A) to convert at any time all or any part of the outstanding Loans equal to $5,000,000 or a greater integral multiple of $1,000,000 from Loans bearing interest at a rate determined by reference to one basis to Loans bearing interest at a rate determined by reference to an alternative basis, or (B) upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to a Eurodollar Rate Loan, to continue all or any portion of such Loan (together with other Loans) equal to $5,000,000 or a greater integral multiple of $1,000,000 as a Eurodollar Rate Loan; provided, however, that a Eurodollar Rate Loan may only be converted into a Base Rate Loan on the expiration date of an Interest Period applicable thereto.

(ii) Borrower shall deliver a Notice of Conversion/Continuation to Administrative Agent no later than 11:00 a.m. (Dallas, Texas time) at least one (1) Business Day in advance of the proposed conversion date (in the case of a conversion to a Base Rate Loan) and at least three (3) Business Days in advance of the proposed conversion/continuation date (in the case of a conversion to, or a continuation of, a Eurodollar Rate Loan). A Notice of Conversion/Continuation shall specify (A) the proposed conversion/continuation date (which shall be a Business Day), (B) the amount and type of the Loan to be converted/continued, (C) the nature of the proposed conversion/continuation, (D) in the case of a conversion to, or a continuation of, a Eurodollar Rate Loan, the requested Interest Period, and (E) in the case of a conversion to, or a continuation of, a Eurodollar Rate Loan, that no Potential Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. In lieu of delivering the above-described Notice of Conversion/Continuation, Borrower may give Administrative Agent telephonic notice by the required time of any proposed conversion/continuation under this Section 2.2(d); provided that such notice shall be promptly confirmed in writing by delivery of a Notice of Conversion/Continuation to Administrative Agent on or before the proposed conversion/continuation date.

(iii) Neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall incur any liability to Borrower in acting upon any telephonic notice referred to above that Administrative Agent believes in good faith to have been given by a duly authorized officer or other person authorized to act on behalf of Borrower or for otherwise acting in good faith under this Section 2.2(c), and upon conversion or continuation of the applicable basis for determining the interest rate with respect to any Loans in accordance with this Agreement pursuant to any such telephonic notice Borrower shall have effected a conversion or continuation, as the case may be, hereunder.

(iv) Except as otherwise provided in Sections 2.6(b), 2.6(c), and 2.6 (g), a Notice of Conversion/Continuation for conversion to, or continuation of, a Eurodollar Rate Loan (or telephonic notice in lieu thereof) shall be irrevocable on and after the related Interest Rate Determination Date, and Borrower shall be bound to effect a conversion or continuation in accordance therewith.

(e) Default Rate. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, the outstanding Principal Debt and, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, any interest payments thereon not paid when due and any fees and other amounts then due and payable hereunder, shall thereafter bear interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable bankruptcy laws) payable upon demand at a rate that is two percent (2%) per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable under this

Agreement with respect to the applicable Loans (or, in the case of any such fees and other amounts, at a rate which is two percent (2%) per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable under this Agreement for Base Rate Loans); provided that in the case of Eurodollar Rate Loans, upon the expiration of the Interest Period in effect at the time any such increase in interest rate is effective such Eurodollar Rate Loans shall thereupon become Base Rate Loans and shall thereafter bear interest payable upon demand at a rate which is two percent (2%) per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable under this Agreement for Base Rate Loans. Payment or acceptance of the increased rates of interest provided for in this Section 2.2(e) is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of Administrative Agent or any Lender.

(f) Computation of Interest. Interest on the Loans, and all fees payable under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year, in each case for the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which it accrues. In computing interest on any Loan, the date of the making of such Loan or the first (1st) day of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan being converted from a Eurodollar Rate Loan, the date of conversion of such Eurodollar Rate Loan to such Base Rate Loan, as the case may be, shall be included, and the date of payment of such Loan or the expiration date of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan being converted to a Eurodollar Rate Loan, the date of conversion of such Base Rate Loan to such Eurodollar Rate Loan, as the case may be, shall be excluded; provided that if a Loan is repaid on the same day on which it is made, one (1) day's interest shall be paid on such Loan.

(g) Maximum Rate. Regardless of any provision contained in any Loan Document or any document related thereto, it is the intent of the parties to this Agreement that neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender contract for, charge, take, reserve, receive, or apply, as interest on all or any part of the Obligations any amount in excess of the Maximum Rate or the Maximum Amount or receive any unearned interest in violation of any applicable Legal Requirements, and, if Administrative Agent or Lenders ever do so, then any excess shall be treated as a partial repayment or prepayment of the Principal Debt and any remaining excess shall be refunded to Borrower. In determining if the interest paid or payable exceeds the Maximum Rate, Borrower, Administrative Agent, and Lenders shall, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable Legal Requirements, (i) treat all Loans as but a single extension of credit (and Administrative Agent, Lenders, and Borrower agree that is the case and that provision in this Agreement for multiple Loans is for convenience only), (ii) characterize any non-principal payment as an expense, fee, or premium rather than as interest, (iii) exclude voluntary repayments or prepayments and their effects (solely for purposes of this calculation), and (iv) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread the total amount of interest throughout the entire contemplated term of the Obligations. However, if the Obligations are paid in full before the end of its full contemplated term, and if the interest received for its actual period of existence exceeds the Maximum Amount, then Lenders shall refund any excess (and Lenders may not, to the extent permitted by Legal Requirements, be subject to any penalties provided by any Legal Requirements for contracting for, charging, taking, reserving, or receiving interest in excess of the Maximum Amount). If the Legal Requirements of the State of Texas are applicable for purposes of determining the "Maximum Rate" or the "Maximum Amount," then those terms mean the "weekly ceiling" from time to time in effect under Texas Finance Code § 303.001, as amended, as limited by Texas Finance Code § 303.009, as amended. Borrower agrees that Chapter 346 of the Texas Finance Code, as amended (which regulates certain revolving credit loan accounts and revolving tri-party accounts), does not apply to the Obligations.

2.3 Fees.

(a) Administrative Agent and Arranger Fees. Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent and Arranger the fees specified in the letter agreement between Administrative Agent and Borrower.

(b) Unused Fees. Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of Lenders, a quarterly unused fee (prorated for partial quarters) equal to the sum of the amounts obtained by multiplying the daily Unused Commitment times one-quarter of one percent (0.25%) per annum. Such commitment fee shall accrue commencing on the Closing Date, and shall be due and payable on the last day of each March, June, September, and December during the term hereof, commencing on September 30, 2002, and on the Maturity Date, based upon the Unused Commitment for each day during the quarter ending on such date. Solely for purposes of this Section 2.3(b), "ratable" means, for any calculation period, with respect to any Lender, the proportion that (i) the daily Unused Commitment of such Lender during such period bears to (ii) the aggregate amount of the daily Unused Commitment of all Lenders during such period.

(c) Issuing Bank's Fees. As an inducement for the issuance (including, without limitation, the extension) of each LC, Borrower agrees to pay to Administrative Agent:

(i) For the ratable account of each Lender, on the day the fee is payable, an issuance fee, payable quarterly in arrears, equal to a percentage of the average-face amount of such LC during each applicable quarterly period, which percentage is equal to the product of the average-face amount of such LC times a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Rate Loans; and

(ii) For the account of Issuing Bank, payable on the date of issuance, an issuance fee equal to the greater of (A) the product of (I) the face amount of such LC times (II) one-eighth of one percent (0.125%) and (B) $500; provided that the fees payable pursuant to this Section 2.3(c)(ii) with respect to any individual issuance of an LC shall not exceed $2,000.

2.4 Scheduled Payments, Prepayments, and Reductions.

(a) Scheduled Payment of the Revolving Credit Facility. The Principal Debt is due and payable on the Maturity Date.

(b) Voluntary Prepayments. Borrower may, upon not less than one (1) Business Day prior written or telephonic notice in the case of Base Rate Loans, or three (3) Business Days' prior written or telephonic notice in the case of Eurodollar Rate Loans, given to Administrative Agent and, if given by telephone, promptly confirmed in writing to Administrative Agent (which original written or telephonic notice Administrative Agent will promptly transmit by telefacsimile or telephone to each Lender), at any time and from time to time prepay any Loans on any Business Day in whole or in part in an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 or a greater integral multiple of $250,000 (or such lesser amount representing payment in full of all Principal Debt); provided, however, that if Borrower repays any Eurodollar Rate Loan prior to the expiration of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then Borrower shall be obligated to pay the amounts required pursuant to Section 2.6(d) . Notice of prepayment having been given as aforesaid, the principal amount of the Loans specified in such notice shall become due and payable on the prepayment date specified therein.

(c) General Provisions Regarding Payments.

(i) Manner and Time of Payment. All payments by Borrower of principal, interest, fees, and other Obligations hereunder and under the Notes shall be made in Dollars in same day funds, without defense, setoff, or counterclaim, free of any restriction or condition, and delivered to Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 noon (Dallas, Texas time) on the date due at the Funding and Payment Office for the account of Lenders; funds received by

Administrative Agent after that time on such due date shall be deemed to have been paid by Borrower on the next succeeding Business Day.

(ii) Application of Payments to Principal and Interest. All payments in respect of the Principal Debt of any Loan shall include payment of accrued interest on the Principal Debt being repaid or prepaid, and all such payments shall be applied to the payment of interest before application to Principal Debt.

(iii) Application of Prepayments to Base Rate Loans and Eurodollar Rate Loans. Any prepayment shall be applied first (1st) to Base Rate Loans made for the purpose specified, if any, to the full extent thereof before application to Eurodollar Rate Loans, in each case in a manner which minimizes the amount of any payments required to be made by Borrower pursuant to Section 2.6(d).

(iv) Apportionment of Payments. Aggregate principal and interest payments in respect of the Loans shall be apportioned among all outstanding Loans to which such payments relate, in each case proportionately to Lenders' respective Pro Rata Shares. Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to each Lender, at its primary address set forth on Schedule 2.1 or at such other address as such Lender may request, its Pro Rata Share of all such payments received by Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.4(c)(iv), if, pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.6(c), any Notice of Conversion/Continuation is withdrawn as to any Affected Lender or if any Affected Lender makes Base Rate Loans in lieu of its Commitment Percentage of any Eurodollar Rate Loans, then Administrative Agent shall give effect thereto in apportioning payments received thereafter.

(v) Payments on Business Days. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of the payment of interest hereunder, as the case may be.

(vi) Notation of Payment. Each Lender agrees that before disposing of any Note held by it, or any part thereof (other than by granting participations therein), such Lender will make a notation thereon of the Loans evidenced by that Note and all principal payments previously made thereon and of the date to which interest thereon has been paid; provided that the failure to make (or any error in the making of) a notation of the Loans made under such Note shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of Borrower hereunder or under such Note with respect to the Loans or any payments of principal or interest on such Note.

(vii) Payments to Lenders. Administrative Agent shall pay to each Lender any payment or prepayment to which such Lender is entitled hereunder on the same day Administrative Agent shall have received the same from Borrower; provided that such payment or prepayment is received by Administrative Agent prior to 12:00 noon (Dallas, Texas time), and otherwise before 12:00 noon (Dallas, Texas time) on the Business Day next following. If and to the extent Administrative Agent shall not make such payments to Lenders when due as set forth in the preceding sentence, then such unpaid amounts shall accrue interest, payable by Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Effective Rate from time to time in effect from the due date until (but not including) the date on which Administrative Agent makes such payments to Lenders.

2.5 Use of Proceeds.

(a) Loans and LCs. The proceeds of the Loans shall be applied by Borrower, and LCs shall be issued for the account of Borrower, for the purposes described in the Recitals.

(b) Margin Regulations. No portion of the proceeds of any Loan under this Agreement shall be used by any Company in any manner that would cause the Loans or the application of such

proceeds to violate Regulation U, Regulation T, or Regulation X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or any other regulation of such Board or to violate the Exchange Act, in each case as in effect on the date or dates of such Loans and such use of proceeds.

2.6 Special Provisions Governing Eurodollar Rate Loans. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the following provisions shall govern with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans as to the matters covered:

(a) Determination of Applicable Interest Rate. As soon as practicable after 10:00 a.m. (Dallas, Texas time) on each Interest Rate Determination Date, Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive, and binding upon all parties) the interest rate that shall apply to the Eurodollar Rate Loans for which an interest rate is then being determined for the applicable Interest Period and shall promptly give notice thereof (in writing or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Borrower and each Lender.

(b) Inability to Determine Applicable Interest Rate. If Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto), on any Interest Rate Determination Date with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Loans, that by reason of circumstances affecting the interbank Eurodollar market, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the interest rate applicable to such Loans on the basis provided for in the definition of Adjusted Eurodollar Rate or Eurocurrency Rate, then Administrative Agent shall on such date give notice (by telefacsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Borrower and each Lender of such determination, whereupon (i) no Loans may be made as, or converted to, Eurodollar Rate Loans until such time as Administrative Agent notifies Borrower and Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, and (ii) any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation given by Borrower with respect to the Loans in respect of which such determination was made shall be deemed to be rescinded by Borrower.

(c) Illegality or Impracticability of Eurodollar Rate Loans. If on any date any Lender shall have determined (which determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto but shall be made only after consultation with Borrower and Administrative Agent) that the making, maintaining, or continuation of its Eurodollar Rate Loans (i) has become unlawful as a result of compliance by such Lender in good faith with any Legal Requirements (or would conflict with any such Legal Requirement not having the force of law even though the failure to comply therewith would not be unlawful), or (ii) has become impracticable, or would cause such Lender material hardship, as a result of contingencies occurring after the date of this Agreement which materially and adversely affect the interbank Eurodollar market or the position of such Lender in that market, then, and in any such event, such Lender shall be an "Affected Lender" and it shall on that day give notice (by telefacsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Borrower and Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each other Lender). Thereafter (A) the obligation of the Affected Lender to make Loans as, or to convert Loans to, Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until such notice shall be withdrawn by the Affected Lender, (B) to the extent such determination by the Affected Lender relates to a Eurodollar Rate Loan then being requested by Borrower pursuant to a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, the Affected Lender shall make such Loan as (or convert such Loan to, as the case may be) a Base Rate Loan, (C) the Affected Lender's obligation to maintain its outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans (the "Affected Loans") shall be terminated at the earlier to occur of the expiration of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the Affected Loans or when required by law, and (D) the Affected Loans shall automatically convert into Base Rate Loans on the date of such termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent a determination by an Affected Lender as described above relates to a Eurodollar Rate Loan then being requested by Borrower pursuant to a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, Borrower shall have the option, subject to the provisions of

Section 2.6(d), to rescind such Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation as to all Lenders by giving notice (by telefacsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Administrative Agent of such rescission on the date on which the Affected Lender gives notice of its determination as described above (which notice of rescission Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each other Lender). Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, nothing in this Section 2.6(c) shall affect the obligation of any Lender other than an Affected Lender to make or maintain Loans as, or to convert Loans to, Eurodollar Rate Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(d) Compensation For Breakage or Non-Commencement of Interest Periods. Borrower shall compensate each Lender, upon written request by such Lender (which request shall set forth the basis for requesting such amounts), for all reasonable losses, expenses, and liabilities (including, without limitation, any interest paid by such Lender to lenders of funds borrowed by it to make or carry its Eurodollar Rate Loans and any loss, expense, or liability sustained by such Lender in connection with the liquidation or reemployment of such funds) which such Lender may sustain: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by such Lender) a borrowing of any Eurodollar Rate Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or a telephonic request for borrowing, or a conversion to or continuation of any Eurodollar Rate Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Conversion/ Continuation or a telephonic request for conversion or continuation (unless such borrowing or conversion does not occur by reason of the inability to determine the applicable interest rate as provided in Section 2.6(b) and the illegality or impracticability to make Eurodollar Rate Loans as provided in Section 2.6(c); (ii) if any prepayment or other principal payment or any conversion of any of its Eurodollar Rate Loans occurs on a date prior to the last day of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan; (iii) if any prepayment of any of its Eurodollar Rate Loans is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by Borrower; or (iv) as a consequence of any other default by Borrower in the repayment of its Eurodollar Rate Loans when required by the terms of this Agreement.

(e) Booking of Eurodollar Rate Loans. Any Lender may make, carry, or transfer Eurodollar Rate Loans at, to, or for the account of any of its branch offices or the office of an Affiliate of such Lender.

(f) Assumptions Concerning Funding of Eurodollar Rate Loans. Calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under this Section 2.6 and under Section 2.7(a) shall be made as though such Lender had actually funded each of its relevant Eurodollar Rate Loans through the purchase of a Eurodollar deposit bearing interest at the rate obtained pursuant to the definition of Eurocurrency Rate in an amount equal to the amount of such Eurodollar Rate Loan and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period and through the transfer of such Eurodollar deposit from an offshore office of such Lender to a domestic office of such Lender in the United States of America; provided, however, that each Lender may fund each of its Eurodollar Rate Loans in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumptions shall be utilized only for the purposes of calculating amounts payable under this Section 2.6 and under Section 2.7(a).

(g) Eurodollar Rate Loans After Default. After the occurrence of and during the continuation of a Potential Default or an Event of Default, (i) Borrower may not elect to have a Loan be made or maintained as, or converted to, a Eurodollar Rate Loan after the expiration of any Interest Period then in effect for such Loan, and (ii) subject to the provisions of Section 2.6(d), any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation given by Borrower with respect to a requested borrowing or conversion/continuation that has not yet occurred shall be deemed to be rescinded by Borrower.

2.7 Increased Costs; Taxes; Capital Adequacy.

(a) Compensation for Increased Costs and Taxes. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.7(b), if any Lender shall determine (for Loans hereunder and other similar loans made by such Lender to borrowers similarly situated as Borrower) (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that any Legal Requirement, or any change therein or in the interpretation, administration, or application thereof (including the introduction of any new Legal Requirement), or any determination of any Governmental Authority, in each case that becomes effective after the date hereof, or compliance by such Lender with any guideline, request or directive issued or made after the date hereof by any central bank or other Governmental Authority or quasi-Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law):

(i) subjects such Lender (or its applicable lending office) to any additional Tax (other than any Tax on the overall net income of such Lender) with respect to this Agreement or any of its obligations hereunder or any payments to such Lender (or its applicable lending office) of principal, interest, fees, or any other amount payable hereunder;

(ii) imposes, modifies, or holds applicable any reserve (including without limitation any marginal, emergency, supplemental, special, or other reserve), special deposit, compulsory loan, FDIC insurance, or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, or advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender (other than any such reserve or other requirements with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans that are reflected in the definition of Adjusted Eurodollar Rate); or

(iii) imposes any other condition (other than with respect to a Tax matter) on or affecting such Lender (or its applicable lending office) or its obligations hereunder or the interbank Eurodollar market;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make, making, or maintaining Loans hereunder or to reduce any amount received or receivable by such Lender (or its applicable lending office) with respect thereto; then, in any such case, Borrower shall promptly pay to such Lender, upon receipt of the statement referred to in the next sentence, such additional amount or amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Lender in its sole discretion shall determine) as may be necessary to compensate such Lender for any such increased cost or reduction in amounts received or receivable hereunder. Such Lender shall deliver to Borrower (with a copy to Administrative Agent) as soon as practicable (but in any event within one hundred and twenty (120) days) after such Lender obtains actual knowledge of the event or condition prompting such Lender to make such determination a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to such Lender under this Section 2.7(a), which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error. Borrower shall not be liable for any such amount that accrues between the date such statement is required to be given and the date such statement is actually given.

(b) Withholding of Taxes.

(i) Payments to Be Free and Clear. All sums payable by Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be paid free and clear of and (except to the extent required by any Legal Requirement) without any deduction or withholding on account of any Tax (other than a Tax on the overall net income of any Lender) imposed, levied, collected, withheld, or assessed by or within the United States of America or any political subdivision in or of the United States of America or any other jurisdiction from or to which a payment is

made by or on behalf of Borrower or by any federation or organization of which the United States of America or any such jurisdiction is a member at the time of payment.

(ii) Grossing-up of Payments. If Borrower or any other Person is required by any Legal Requirement to make any deduction or withholding on account of any such Tax (other than a Tax on the overall net income of any Lender) from any sum paid or payable by Borrower to Administrative Agent or any Lender under any of the Loan Documents:

(A) Borrower shall notify Administrative Agent of any such requirement or any change in any such requirement as soon as Borrower becomes aware of it;

(B) Borrower shall pay any such Tax before the date on which penalties attach thereto, such payment to be made (if the liability to pay is imposed on Borrower) for its own account or (if that liability is imposed on Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be) on behalf of and in the name of Administrative Agent or such Lender;

(C) the sum payable by Borrower in respect of which the relevant deduction, withholding, or payment is required shall be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that, after the making of that deduction, withholding, or payment, Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, receives on the due date a net sum equal to what it would have received had no such deduction, withholding, or payment been required or made (but net of any tax credit realized by Administrative Agent or such Lender); and

(D) within thirty (30) days after paying any sum from which it is required by law to make any deduction or withholding, and within thirty (30) days after the due date of payment of any Tax which it is required by Section 2.7(b)(ii)(B) to pay, Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent evidence satisfactory to the other affected parties of such deduction, withholding, or payment and of the remittance thereof to the relevant taxing or other authority;

provided that no such additional amount shall be required to be paid to any Lender under Section 2.7(b)(ii)(C) except to the extent that any change after the date hereof (in the case of each Lender listed on the signature pages hereof) or after the date of the Assignment Agreement pursuant to which such Lender became a Lender (in the case of each other Lender) in any such requirement for a deduction, withholding, or payment as is mentioned therein shall result in an increase in the rate of such deduction, withholding, or payment from that in effect at the date of this Agreement or at the date of such Assignment Agreement, as the case may be, in respect of payments to such Lender.

(iii) Evidence of Exemption from U.S. Withholding Tax.

(A) Each Lender that is organized under the laws of any jurisdiction other than the United States or any state or other political subdivision thereof (for purposes of this Section 2.7(b)(iii), a "Non-US Lender") shall deliver to Administrative Agent for transmission to Borrower, on or prior to the Closing Date (in the case of each Lender listed on the signature pages hereof) or on the date of the Assignment Agreement pursuant to which it becomes a Lender (in the case of each other Lender), and at such other times as may be necessary in the determination of Borrower or Administrative Agent (each in the reasonable exercise of its discretion), (1) two original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form 1001 or 4224 (or any successor forms), properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, together with any other certificate or statement of exemption required under the Internal Revenue Code or the regulations issued thereunder to establish that such Lender is not subject to deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax with respect to any payments to such Lender of principal, interest, fees or other amounts payable under any of the Loan Documents, or

(2) if such Lender is not a "bank" or other Person described in Section 881(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and cannot deliver either Internal Revenue Service Form 1001 or 4224 pursuant to Section 2.7(b)(iii)(A)(1), then a Certificate re Non-Bank Status together with two (2) original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 (or any successor form), properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, together with any other certificate or statement of exemption required under the Internal Revenue Code or the regulations issued thereunder to establish that such Lender is not subject to deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax with respect to any payments to such Lender of interest payable under any of the Loan Documents.

(B) Each Lender required to deliver any forms, certificates, or other evidence with respect to United States federal income tax withholding matters pursuant to Section 2.7(b)(iii)(A) hereby agrees, from time to time after the initial delivery by such Lender of such forms, certificates, or other evidence, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders such forms, certificates or other evidence obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, such Lender shall (1) deliver to Administrative Agent for transmission to Borrower two (2) new original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form 1001 or 4224, or a Certificate re Non-Bank Status and two (2) original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8, as the case may be, properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, together with any other certificate or statement of exemption required in order to confirm or establish that such Lender is not subject to deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax with respect to payments to such Lender under the Loan Documents, or (2) immediately notify Administrative Agent and Borrower of its inability to deliver any such forms, certificates or other evidence.

(C) Borrower shall not be required to pay any additional amount to any Non-US Lender under Section 2.7(b)(ii)(C) if such Lender shall have failed to satisfy the requirements of Section 2.7(B)(iii)(A); provided that if such Lender shall have satisfied such requirements on the Closing Date (in the case of each Lender listed on the signature pages hereof or on the date of the Assignment Agreement pursuant to which it became a Lender (in the case of each other Lender), nothing in this Section 2.7(b)(iii)(C) shall relieve Borrower of its obligation to pay any additional amounts pursuant to Section 2.7(b)(iii)(C) in the event that, as a result of any change in any applicable Legal Requirement, or any change in the interpretation, administration, or application thereof, such Lender is no longer properly entitled to deliver forms, certificates or other evidence at a subsequent date establishing the fact that such Lender is not subject to withholding as described in Section 2.7(b)(iii)(A).

(c) Capital Adequacy Adjustment. If any Lender shall have determined that the adoption, effectiveness, phase-in, or applicability after the date hereof of any Legal Requirement (or any provision thereof) regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender (or its applicable lending office) with any guideline, request, or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender as a consequence of, or with reference to, such Lender's Commitment or participations therein or other obligations hereunder with respect to the Loans to a level below that which such Lender or such controlling corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, effectiveness, phase-in, applicability, change, or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of such Lender or such controlling corporation with regard to capital adequacy), then from time to time, within five (5) Business Days after receipt by Borrower from such Lender of the statement referred to in the next sentence,

Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such controlling corporation on an after-tax basis for such reduction. Such Lender shall deliver to Borrower (with a copy to Administrative Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis of the calculation of such additional amounts, which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error.

2.8 Obligation of Lenders to Mitigate. Each Lender agrees that, as promptly as practicable after the officer of such Lender responsible for administering the Loans of such Lender, as the case may be, becomes aware of the occurrence of an event or the existence of a condition that would cause such Lender to become an Affected Lender under Section 2.6(c) or that would entitle such Lender to receive payments under Section 2.7, it will, to the extent not inconsistent with the internal policies of such Lender and any applicable legal or regulatory restrictions, use reasonable efforts (a) to make, issue, fund, or maintain the Commitment of such Lender or the affected Loans of such Lender through another lending office of such Lender or Affiliate, or (b) take such other measures as such Lender may deem reasonable, if as a result thereof the circumstances which would cause such Lender to be an Affected Lender would cease to exist or the additional amounts which would otherwise be required to be paid to such Lender pursuant to Section 2.7 would be materially reduced and if, as determined by such Lender in its sole discretion, the making, issuing, funding, or maintaining of such Commitment or Loans through such other lending office or in accordance with such other measures, as the case may be, would not otherwise materially adversely affect such Commitment or Loans or the interests of such Lender; provided that such Lender will not be obligated to utilize such other lending office pursuant to this Section 2.8 unless Borrower agrees to pay all incremental and reasonable expenses incurred by such Lender as a result of utilizing such other lending office as described in clause (a) above. A certificate as to the amount of any such expenses payable by Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.8 (setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount) submitted by such Lender to Borrower (with a copy to Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

2.9 Security for the Loans.

(a) Pledge Agreements. As security for the payment and performance of the Obligations, on or prior to the Closing Date, (i) Borrower shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent the Borrower Pledge Agreement pursuant to which Borrower shall grant Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Credit Parties, a first priority perfected security interest in, and lien upon, the Stock of each of its Significant Subsidiaries, and (ii) each of Borrower's Significant Subsidiaries that, individually or together with any other Obligor, holds ownership interests in one or more Significant Subsidiaries shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent the Subsidiary Pledge Agreement pursuant to which such Significant Subsidiaries shall grant Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Credit Parties, a first priority perfected security interest in, and lien upon, the Stock of each Significant Subsidiary owned by each such Significant Subsidiary.

(b) Subsidiary Guaranty. Each of Borrower's Significant Subsidiaries shall execute and deliver to Borrower the Subsidiary Guaranty, pursuant to which such Significant Subsidiaries shall guaranty all of the Obligations of Borrower.

(c) Further Assurances. Borrower hereby agrees to execute and deliver, and to cause to be executed and delivered, to Administrative Agent, at Borrower's sole cost and expense, such replacement guaranties, financing or continuation statements, third party consents, and such other amendments, agreements, documents, assignments, statements, or instruments as Administrative Agent may from time to time reasonably request to evidence, perfect, or otherwise implement the security for performance and repayment of the Obligations and the obligations of Borrower's Significant Subsidiaries under the Subsidiary Guaranty. All of the foregoing shall be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to Administrative Agent.

SECTION 8

ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

8.1 Administrative Agent.

(a) Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints, designates and authorizes Administrative Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere herein or in any other Loan Document, Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall Administrative Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender or participant, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against Administrative Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term "agent" herein and in the other Loan Documents with reference to Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

(b) Issuing Bank shall act on behalf of Lenders with respect to any LC issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and Issuing Bank shall have all of the benefits and immunities (i) provided to Administrative Agent in this Section 8 with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by Issuing Bank in connection with any LC issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and the applications and agreements for letters of credit pertaining to such LC as fully as if the term "Administrative Agent" as used in this Section 8 and in the definition of "Agent-Related Person" included Issuing Bank with respect to such acts or omissions, and (ii) as additionally provided herein with respect to Issuing Bank.

8.2 Delegation of Duties. Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees, or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultants or experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct.

8.3 Liability of Administrative Agent. No Agent-Related Person shall (a) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein), or (b) be responsible in any manner to any Lender or participant for any recital, statement, representation, or warranty made by any Company or any officer thereof, contained herein or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement, or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability, or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for any failure of any Company or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Lender or participant to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books, or records of any Company or any Affiliate thereof.

8.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent.

(a) Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, communication, signature, resolution, representation, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, electronic mail message, statement, or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent, or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to any Company), independent accountants and other experts selected by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under any Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Requisite Lenders as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by 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. Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of Requisite Lenders (or such greater number of Lenders as may be expressly required hereby in any instance) and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all Lenders.

(b) For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Section 3.1, each Lender that has signed this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a Lender unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from such Lender prior to the proposed Closing Date specifying its objection thereto.

8.5 Notice of Event of Default. Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Event of Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest, and fees required to be paid to Administrative Agent for the account of Lenders, unless Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Event of Default and stating that such notice is a "notice of default." Administrative Agent will notify Lenders of its receipt of any such notice. Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Event of Default as may be directed by Requisite Lenders in accordance with Section 7; provided, however, that unless and until Administrative Agent has received any such direction, Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Event of Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of Lenders.

8.6 Credit Decision; Disclosure of Information by Administrative Agent. Each Lender acknowledges that no Agent-Related Person has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any consent to and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of any Company or any Affiliate thereof, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent-Related Person to any Lender as to any matter, including whether Agent-Related Persons have disclosed material information in their possession. Each Lender represents to Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition, and creditworthiness of each Company, and all applicable bank or other regulatory Legal Requirements relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to Borrower hereunder. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals, and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition, and creditworthiness of Borrower. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to Lenders by Administrative Agent herein, Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition, or creditworthiness of any of the Companies or any of their respective Affiliates which may come into the possession of any Agent-Related Person.

8.7 Indemnification of Administrative Agent. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, Lenders shall indemnify upon demand each Agent-Related Person (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of the Companies and without limiting the obligation of any Company to do so), pro rata, and hold harmless each Agent-Related Person from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by it, INCLUDING THOSE RESULTING FROM EACH AGENT-RELATED PERSON'S OWN ORDINARY NEGLIGENCE; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to any Agent-Related Person of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities to the extent determined in a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Agent-Related Person's own gross negligence or willful misconduct; provided, however, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of Required Lenders shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section 8.7. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse Administrative Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including attorney costs) incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for

such expenses by or on behalf of Borrower. The undertaking in this Section 8.7 shall survive termination of the Total Commitment, the payment of all other Obligations, and the resignation of Administrative Agent.

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

8.9 Successor Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon thirty (30) days' notice to Lenders; provided that any such resignation by Bank of America shall also constitute its resignation as Issuing Bank. If Administrative Agent resigns under this Agreement, then Requisite Lenders shall appoint from among Lenders a successor administrative agent for Lenders, which successor administrative agent shall be consented to by Borrower at all times other than during the existence of an Event of Default (which consent of Borrower shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no successor administrative agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of Administrative Agent, then Administrative Agent may appoint, after consulting with Lenders and Borrower, a successor administrative agent from among Lenders. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor administrative agent hereunder, the Person acting as such successor administrative agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and Issuing Bank and the respective terms "Administrative Agent," and "Issuing Bank" shall mean such successor administrative agent and Issuing Bank and the retiring Administrative Agent's appointment, powers, and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated and the retiring Issuing Bank's rights, powers, and duties as such shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such retiring Issuing Bank or any other Lender, other than the obligation of the successor Issuing Bank to issue letters of credit in substitution for the LCs, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or to make other arrangements satisfactory to the retiring Issuing Bank to effectively assume the obligations of the retiring Issuing Bank with respect to such LCs. After any retiring Administrative Agent's resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 8 and Sections 9.2 and 9.3 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement. If no successor administrative agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date which is thirty (30) days following a retiring Administrative Agent's notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent's resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and Lenders shall perform all of the duties of Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as Requisite Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. Bank of America agrees that, for so long as Bank of America remains Administrative Agent and so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Bank of America, together with its Affiliates, will hold a Commitment aggregating no less than the amount equal to the smallest Commitment held by any Lender (without giving effect to any mergers thereof other than Bank of America).

8.10 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition, or other judicial proceeding relative to any Company, Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the

principal of any Loan or any LC Exposure shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, any LC Exposure, and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of Lenders and Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Lenders and Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel) and all other amounts due Lenders and Administrative Agent under Sections 2.3 and 9.2 allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

(b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator, or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to Administrative Agent and, in the event that Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to Lenders, to pay to Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements, and advances of Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due Administrative Agent under Sections 2.3 and 9.2.

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize 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 Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.

8.11 Collateral and Guaranty Matters. Lenders irrevocably authorize Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion:

(a) to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by Administrative Agent under any Loan Document (i) upon termination of the Total Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations) and the expiration or termination of every LC, (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) if approved, authorized or ratified, in writing by Requisite Lenders or all Lenders (to the extent the approval of all Lenders is required pursuant to Section 9.5); and

(b) to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Subsidiary Guaranty if such Person ceases to be a Significant Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder.

Upon request by Administrative Agent at any time, Requisite Lenders will confirm in writing Administrative Agent's authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Subsidiary Guaranty pursuant to this Section 8.11.

8.12 Other Agents; Arrangers and Managers. None of Lenders or other Persons identified on the facing page or signature pages of this Agreement as a "syndication agent," "book manager," "arranger," "lead arranger," or "co-arranger" shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility, or duty under this Agreement other than, in the case of such Lenders, those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lenders or other Persons so identified shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any Lenders or other Persons so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder.

8.13 Approval of Lenders.

(a) All communications from Administrative Agent to Lenders requesting Lenders' determination, consent, approval, or disapproval (i) shall be given in the form of a written notice to each Lender, (ii) shall be accompanied by a description of the matter or thing as to which such determination, approval, consent, or disapproval is requested, or shall advise each Lender where such matter or thing may be inspected, or shall otherwise describe the matter or issue to be resolved, (iii) shall include, if reasonably requested by a Lender and to the extent not previously provided to such Lender, written materials and a summary of all oral information provided to Administrative Agent by Borrower in respect of the matter or issue to be resolved, and (iv) shall include Administrative Agent's recommended course of action or determination in respect thereof. Each Lender shall reply promptly, but in any event (A) within thirty (30) days (or such lesser period as may be required under the Loan Documents for Administrative Agent to respond) for those matters requiring the consent by all Lenders, and (B) within fifteen (15) Business Days (or such lesser period as may be required under the Loan Documents for Administrative Agent to respond) for those matters requiring the consent by Requisite Lenders, in each instance, after receipt of the request therefore by Administrative Agent (in either event, the "Lender Reply Period").

(b) Unless a Lender shall give written notice to Administrative Agent that it objects to the recommendation or determination of Administrative Agent (together with a written explanation of the reasons behind such objection) contained in a request described in clause (a) above that is marked "REQUEST FOR APPROVAL" within the Lender Reply Period, such Lender shall be deemed to have approved of or consented to such recommendation or determination.

SECTION 9

MISCELLANEOUS

9.1 Assignments and Participations in Loans.

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.1(b), (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.1(d), or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of Section 9.1(f) (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in Section 9.1(b) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy, or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans (including for purposes of this subsection (b), participations in LC Exposure) at the time owing to it); provided that (i) except in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender's Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund (as defined in Section 9.1(g)) with respect to a Lender, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment Agreement with respect to such assignment is delivered to Administrative Agent or, if "Trade Date" is specified in the Assignment Agreement, as of the Trade Date, shall

not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); (ii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans or the Commitment assigned; (iii) any assignment of a Commitment must be approved by Administrative Agent and Issuing Bank unless the Person that is the proposed assignee is itself a Lender (whether or not the proposed assignee would otherwise qualify as an Eligible Assignee); and (iv) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent an Assignment Agreement, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.1(c), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment Agreement, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment Agreement, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment Agreement, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment Agreement covering all of the assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.6, 2.7, 9.2, and 9.3 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment). Upon request, Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 9.1(d).

(c) Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrower, shall maintain at Administrative Agent's office a copy of each Assignment Agreement delivered to it and a Register for the recordation of the names and addresses of Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans and LC Exposure owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and Borrower, Administrative Agent, and Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, Borrower or Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or Borrower or any of the Borrower's Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a "Participant") in all or a portion of such Lender's rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans (including such Lender's participations in LC Exposure) owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) Borrower, Administrative Agent, and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification, or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver, or other modification described in clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi), (vii), (viii), (ix) or (x) of Section 9.5(a) that directly affects such Participant. Subject to Section 9.1(e), Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.6 and 2.7 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its

interest by assignment pursuant to Section 9.1(b). Each Participant agrees to be subject to Section 9.4 as though it were a Lender.

(e) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.6 or 2.7 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with Borrower's prior written consent. A Participant that would be a foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.6 unless Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant.

(f) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

"Fund" means any Person (other than a natural person) that is (or will be) engaged in making, purchasing, holding or otherwise investing in commercial loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business.

(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time Bank of America assigns all of its Commitment and Loans pursuant to subsection (b) above, Bank of America may, upon thirty (30) days' notice to Borrower and Lenders, resign as Issuing Bank. In the event of any such resignation as Issuing Bank, Borrower shall be entitled to appoint from among Lenders a successor Issuing Bank hereunder; provided, however, that no failure by Borrower to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of Bank of America as Issuing Bank. If Bank of America resigns as Issuing Bank, then it shall retain all the rights and obligations of Issuing Bank hereunder with respect to any LC outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as Issuing Bank and all LC Exposure with respect thereto.

9.4 Ratable Sharing. Lenders hereby agree among themselves that if any of them shall, whether by voluntary payment (other than a voluntary prepayment of Loans made and applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement), by realization upon security, through the exercise of any right of set-off or banker's lien, by counterclaim or cross action or by the enforcement of any right under the Loan Documents or otherwise, or as adequate protection of a deposit treated as cash collateral under the Bankruptcy Code, receive payment or reduction of a proportion of the aggregate amount of principal, interest, fees, and other amounts then due and owing to such Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (collectively, the "Aggregate Amounts Due" to such Lender) which is greater than the proportion received by any other Lender in respect of the Aggregate Amounts Due to such other Lender, then the Lender receiving such proportionately greater payment shall (a) notify Administrative Agent and each other Lender of the receipt of such payment, and (b) apply a portion of such payment to purchase participations (which it shall be deemed to have purchased from each seller of a participation simultaneously upon the receipt by such seller of its portion of such payment) in the Aggregate Amounts Due to the other Lenders so that all such recoveries of Aggregate Amounts Due shall be shared by all Lenders in proportion to the Aggregate Amounts Due to them; provided that if all or part of such proportionately greater payment received by such purchasing Lender is thereafter recovered from such Lender upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of Borrower or otherwise, then those purchases shall be rescinded and the purchase prices paid for such participations shall be returned to such purchasing Lender ratably to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

9.5 Amendments and Waivers.

(a) No amendment, modification, termination, or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, the Notes, or the other Loan Documents, and no consent to any departure by Borrower therefrom, shall in any event be effective without the written concurrence of Requisite Lenders; provided that no such amendment, modification, termination, waiver, or consent shall:

(i): increase the Total Commitment to an amount in excess of $150,000,000 without written consent of each Lender;

(b) Any amendment or supplement to, or waiver or consent under, any Loan Document that purports to accomplish any of the following must be by a writing executed by Borrower and executed (or approved in writing, as the case may be) by the affected Agent or Issuing Bank, as the case may be (in addition to the Requisite Lenders or all Lenders, as the case may be, as required by this Section 9.5): (i) extends the due date for, decreases the amount or rate of calculation of, or waives the late or non-payment of, any fees payable to such Agent or Issuing Bank under any Loan Document, except, in each case, any adjustments or reductions that are contemplated by any Loan Document; (ii) increases such Agent's or Issuing Bank's, as the case may be, obligations beyond its commitments under any Loan Document; or (iii) changes this clause (b) or any other matter specifically requiring the consent of such Agent or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, under any Loan Document.

9.8 Survival of Representations, Warranties, and Agreements.

(a) All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof.

9.9 Failure or Indulgence Not Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of Administrative Agent or any Lender in the exercise of any power, right, or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall impair such power, right, or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right, or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right, or privilege. All rights and remedies existing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available.

9.10 Marshalling; Payments Set Aside. Neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of Borrower or any other party or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that Borrower makes a payment or payments to Administrative Agent or Lenders (or to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Lenders), or Administrative Agent or Lenders enforce any security interests, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement 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, any other Legal Requirement, common law, or any equitable cause, then, to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights, and remedies therefor or related thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment or payments had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

9.11 Severability. In case any provision in or obligation under this Agreement or the Notes shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

9.12 Obligations Several; Independent Nature of Lenders' Rights. The obligations of Lenders hereunder are several and no Lender shall be responsible for the obligations or Commitment of any other Lender hereunder. Nothing contained herein or in any other Loan Document, and no action taken by Lenders pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute Lenders as 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 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.

9.13 Headings. Section and section headings in this Agreement are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose or be given any substantive effect.

9.16 Consent to Jurisdiction and Service of Process. ALL JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS BROUGHT AGAINST BORROWER ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR ANY OBLIGATION MAY BE BROUGHT IN ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION IN THE STATE OF TEXAS, AND BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT BORROWER ACCEPTS FOR ITSELF AND IN CONNECTION WITH ITS PROPERTIES, GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY, THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID COURTS AND WAIVES ANY DEFENSE OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS AND IRREVOCABLY AGREES TO BE BOUND BY ANY JUDGMENT RENDERED THEREBY IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, SUCH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR SUCH OBLIGATION. Borrower hereby agrees that service of all process in any such proceeding in any such court may be made by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, to Borrower at its address provided in Section 9.7, such service being hereby acknowledged by Borrower to be sufficient for personal jurisdiction in any action against Borrower in any such court and to be otherwise effective and binding service in every respect. Nothing herein shall affect the right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right of any Lender to bring proceedings against Borrower in the courts of any other jurisdiction.

9.17 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING UNDER ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO OR ANY OF THEM WITH RESPECT TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED THERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER FOUNDED IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE; AND EACH PARTY HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY, AND THAT ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN
