Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, prior to the Maturity Date, each Lender with a Revolving Loan Commitment shall make its Pro Rata share of revolving loans and advances (the "Revolving Loans") up to its Revolving Loan Commitment; upon request of the Borrower; provided that the aggregate unpaid principal balance of the Revolving Loan Outstandings outstanding at such time shall not at any time exceed the lesser of (i) Revolving Loan Availability and (ii) the Total Revolving Loan Commitment.

(b)Repayments of Overadvances; Overadvances. If at any time the Revolving Loan Outstandings exceeds either the Revolving Loan Availability or the Total Revolving Loan Commitment, or any portion of the Revolving Loan Outstandings exceed any applicable sublimit within the Revolving

Loan Availability, Borrower shall immediately, and without the necessity of demand by Administrative Agent, pay to Administrative Agent such amount as may be necessary to eliminate such excess and Administrative Agent shall apply such payment to the Revolving Loans to eliminate such excess; provided that Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, permit such excess (the "Overadvance") to remain outstanding and continue to cause Revolving Loans to be advanced to Borrower (including by the Swing Line Lender) without the consent of any Lender for a period of up to thirty (30) calendar days, so long as (i) the amount of the Overadvances does not exceed at any time Three Million Five Hundred and No/100 Dollars ($3,500,000), (ii) the Revolving Loan Outstandings do not exceed the Total Revolving Loan Commitment, and (iii) Administrative Agent has not been notified by Required Lenders to cease making such Revolving Loans. If the Overadvance is not repaid in full within thirty (30) days of the initial occurrence of the Overadvance, no future advances may be made to Borrower without the consent of all Lenders until the Overadvance is repaid in full.

(c)Agent Advances. Subject to the limitations set forth in this subsection, Administrative Agent is hereby authorized by Borrower and Lenders, from time to time in Administrative Agent's Permitted Discretion (and subject to the terms of this paragraph, the making of each Agent Advance shall be deemed to be a request by Borrower and the Lenders to make such Agent Advance), (i) after the occurrence of an Event of Default or an event which, with the passage of time or giving of notice, will become an Event of Default, or (ii) at any time that any of the other applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 17.2 hereof have not been satisfied (including without limitation the conditions precedent that the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Loan Outstandings do not exceed the Revolving Loan Availability), to make Revolving Loans to Borrower on behalf of Lenders which Administrative Agent, in its Permitted Discretion, determined in good faith deems necessary or desirable (A) to preserve or protect the business conducted by any Loan Party, the Collateral, or any portion thereof, (B) to enhance the likelihood of, or maximize the amount of, repayment of the Loans and other Obligations, or (C) to pay any amount chargeable to any Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (any of the advances described in this subsection being hereafter referred to as "Agent Advances"); provided, that (x) the Revolving Loan Outstandings do not exceed the Total Revolving Loan Commitment, (y) Administrative Agent has not been notified by Required Lenders to cease making such Agent Advances, and (z) the agent Advances outstanding shall not exceed at any time Three Million Five Hundred and No/100 Dollars ($3,500,000), unless agreed otherwise by all Lenders.

The provisions of this Section 2.1.5 shall not relieve Lenders of their obligations to make Revolving Loans under Section 2.1.1; provided that if the Swing Line Lender makes a Swing Line Loan pursuant to any such notice, such Swing Line Loan shall be in lieu of any Revolving Loan that otherwise may be made by the Lenders pursuant to such notice. The aggregate amount of Swing Line Loans outstanding shall not exceed at any time Swing Line Availability. Until the Maturity Date, Borrower may from time to time borrow, repay and reborrow under this Section 2.1.5. Each Swing Line

Loan shall be made pursuant to a Notice of Borrowing delivered by Borrower to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.2.2. Any such notice must be given no later than 11:00 A.M., Chicago time, on the Business Day of the proposed Swing Line Loan. Unless the Swing Line Lender has received at least one Business Day's prior written notice from the Required Lenders instructing it not to make a Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender shall, notwithstanding the failure of any condition precedent set forth in Section 17.2, be entitled to fund that Swing Line Loan, and to have Lenders settle in accordance with Section 2.8(a) or purchase participating interests in accordance with Section 2.8(b). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, each Swing Line Loan shall constitute a Base Rate Loan. Borrower shall repay the aggregate outstanding principal amount of each Swing Line Loan upon demand therefor by the Administrative Agent.

(b)The entire unpaid balance of each Swing Line Loan and all other noncontingent Obligations shall be immediately due and payable in full in immediately available funds on the Maturity Date if not sooner paid in full.

2.2.2.Borrowing Procedures.

(a)Borrower shall give written notice (each such written notice, a "Notice of Borrowing") substantially in the form of Exhibit B or telephonic notice (followed immediately by a Notice of Borrowing) to Administrative Agent of each proposed Base Rate or LIBOR borrowing not later than (a) in the case of a Base Rate borrowing, 11:00 A.M., Chicago time, on the proposed date of such borrowing, and (b) in the case of a LIBOR borrowing, 11:00 A.M., Chicago time, at least three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed date of such borrowing.

Each borrowing shall be on a Business Day. Each LIBOR borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount of at least $1,000,000 and an integral multiple of at least $500,000.

(b)Borrower hereby authorizes Administrative Agent in its Permitted Discretion, to advance Revolving Loans as Base Rate Loans to pay any Obligations (whether principal, interest, fees or other charges when due), and any such Obligations becoming due shall be deemed a request for a Base Rate borrowing of a Revolving Loan on the due date, in the amount of such Obligations. The proceeds of such Revolving Loans shall be disbursed as direct payment of the relevant Obligation. In addition, Administrative Agent may, at its option, charge such Obligations against any operating, investment or other account of each Borrower maintained with Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates.

2.2.3.Conversion and Continuation Procedures.

(a)Subject to Section 2.2.1, Borrower may, upon irrevocable written notice to Administrative Agent in accordance with clause (b) below:

(ii)elect, as of the last day of the applicable Interest Period, to continue any LIBOR Loans having Interest Periods expiring on such day (or any part thereof in an aggregate amount not less than $1,000,000 or a higher integral multiple of $500,000) for a new Interest Period;

provided that after giving effect to any prepayment, conversion or continuation, the aggregate principal amount of each Group of LIBOR Loans shall be at least $1,000,000 and an integral multiple of $500,000.

(ii)the aggregate amount of Loans to be converted or continued;

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

(iv)in the case of conversion into, or continuation of, LIBOR Loans, the duration of the requested Interest Period therefor.

(c)If upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to LIBOR Loans, Borrower has failed to select timely a new Interest Period to be applicable to such LIBOR Loans, Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to continue such LIBOR Loans as LIBOR Loans having the same Interest Period effective on the last day of such Interest Period.

Any conversion of a LIBOR Loan on a day other than the last day of an Interest Period therefor shall be subject to Section 4.2.4.

2.3.Repayments.

The Obligations shall be repaid as follows:

2.3.1.Repayment of Revolving Loans. The Revolving Loans and all other Obligations shall be repaid on the Maturity Date.

2.3.2.Making of Payments. All payments of principal or interest on the Note, and of all fees, shall be made by Borrower to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the office specified by the Administrative Agent not later than noon, Chicago time, on the date due; and funds received after that hour shall be deemed to have been received by the Administrative Agent on the following Business Day. Subject to Section 2.6 and Section 2.8, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to each Lender its share of all such payments received in collected funds by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender. All payments under Section 2.10 and Section 4.2.1 shall be made by Borrower directly to the Lender entitled thereto without setoff, counterclaim or other defense. All payments made by a Loan Party hereunder or under any Loan Documents shall be made without setoff, counterclaim, or other defense.

2.3.3.Application of Certain Payments. So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, payments matching specific scheduled payments then due shall be applied to those scheduled payments. After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or an Event of

Default, all amounts collected or received by the Administrative Agent or any Lender as proceeds from the sale of, or other realization upon, all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied in the order set forth in Section 16.2. Concurrently with each remittance to any Lender of its share of any such payment, the Administrative Agent shall advise such Lender as to the application of such payment.

2.3.4.Setoff. Each Loan Party, agrees that the Administrative Agent and each Lender have all rights of set-off and bankers' lien provided by applicable law, and in addition thereto, each other Loan Party, agrees that at any time any Event of Default exists, the Administrative Agent and each Lender may apply to the payment of any Obligations of Borrower and each other Loan Party hereunder, whether or not then due, any and all balances, credits, deposits, accounts or moneys of Borrower and each other Loan Party then or thereafter with the Administrative Agent or such Lender. The exercise of the right to setoff shall be subject to the provisions of Section 18.12

Except as provided in Section 2.6, if any Lender shall obtain any payment or other recovery (whether voluntary, involuntary, by application of offset or otherwise), on account of (a) principal of or interest on any Loan (but excluding (i) any payment pursuant to Section 4.2 or 19.1 and (ii) payments of interest on any Affected Loan) or (b) its participation in any Letter of Credit in excess of its applicable Pro Rata Share of payments and other recoveries obtained by all Lenders on account of principal of and interest on the Loans (or such participation) then held by them, then such Lender shall purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Loans (or sub-participations in Letters of Credit) held by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment or other recovery ratably with each of them; provided that if all or any portion of the excess payment or other recovery is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, the purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery.

2.4.Notes.

The Loans shall, in each Lender's Permitted Discretion, be evidenced by one or more promissory notes in form and substance satisfactory to such Lender (each a "Note" and collectively, the "Notes").

2.5.Recordkeeping

Administrative Agent shall record in its records, the date and amount of each Loan made by Lenders, each repayment or conversion thereof and, in the case of each LIBOR Loan, the dates on which each Interest Period for such Loan shall begin and end. The aggregate unpaid principal amount so recorded shall be rebuttably presumptive evidence of the principal amount of the Loans owing and unpaid. The failure to so record any such amount or any error in so recording any such amount shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the Obligations of Borrower hereunder or under any Note to repay the principal amount of the Loans hereunder, together with all interest accruing thereon.

2.6.Defaulting Lenders.

Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(c)Commitment and Letter of Credit Fees.

(i)No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any fee described in Section 4.3.1 for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).

(ii)Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive fees described in Section 5.2(a) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Pro Rata Share of the Stated Amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided cash collateral pursuant to Section 2.7.

(d)Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letter of Credit Obligations and Swing Line Loans shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the extent that such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitment. Subject to Section 20.10, no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.

(e)Cash Collateral, Repayment of Swing Line Loans. If the reallocation described in clause (d) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, (x) first, prepay Swing Line Loans in an amount equal to the Swing Line Lenders’ Fronting Exposure and (y) second, Cash Collateralize the L/C Issuers’ Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.7.

2.6.3.New Swing Line Loans/Letters of Credit. So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (i) no Swing Line Lender shall be required to fund any Swing Line Loans unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect to such Swing Line Loan and (ii) no L/C Issuer shall be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect thereto.

2.6.4.Termination of Defaulting Lender.

(d) and any cash collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender) in an amount not less than 105% of the Stated Amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit.

2.7.2.Grant of Security Interest. Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the L/C Issuers, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such cash collateral as security for the Defaulting Lenders’ obligation to fund participations in respect of Letter of Credit Obligations. If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that cash collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuers as herein provided, or that the total amount of such cash collateral is less than 105% of the Stated Amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit, Borrower will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional cash collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any cash collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).

2.7.3.Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, cash collateral provided under this Section or Section 2.6 in respect of Letters of Credit shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of Letter of Credit Obligations (including, as to cash collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) for which the cash collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein.

2.7.4.Termination of Requirement. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce any L/C Issuer’s Fronting Exposure shall no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender), or (ii) the determination by the Administrative Agent and each L/C Issuer that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided that, subject to Section 2.6 the Person providing Cash Collateral and each L/C Issuer may agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations [and provided further that to the extent that such Cash Collateral was provided by Borrower, such Cash Collateral shall remain subject to the security interest granted pursuant to the Loan Documents].

2.8.Settlements.

(a)On a weekly basis on each Tuesday (or if such Tuesday is not a Business Day, then on the next preceding Business Day) (or more frequently if requested by Administrative Agent or Swing Line Lender (a "Settlement Date"), Administrative Agent shall provide each Lender with a statement of the outstanding balance of the Revolving Loans and Swing Line Loans as of the end of the Business Day immediately preceding the Settlement Date (the "Pre-Settlement Determination Date") and the current balance of the Revolving Loans funded by each Lender (whether made directly by such Lender to Borrower or constituting a settlement by such Lender of a previous Swing Line Loan or Agent Advance). If such statement discloses that such Lender’s current balance of the Revolving Loans as of the Pre-Settlement Determination Date exceeds such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the aggregate of the Revolving Loans outstanding as of the Pre-Settlement Determination Date, then Administrative Agent shall, on the Settlement Date, transfer, by wire transfer, the net amount due to such Lender in accordance with such Lender’s instructions, and if such statement discloses that such Lender’s current balance of the aggregate of the Revolving Loans, Swing Line Loans and Agent Advances as of the Pre-Settlement Determination Date is less than such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loans outstanding as of the Pre-Settlement Determination Date, then Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Revolving Loan and such Lender shall, on the Settlement Date make a Revolving Loan, transfer, by wire transfer the net amount due to the Administrative Agent or Swing Line Lender, as applicable in accordance with Administrative Agent’s instructions to repay the Swing Line Loan or Agent Advances.

(b)If, prior to settling pursuant to clause (a) above, one of the events described in Section 15.7 or 15.8 has occurred, then, subject to the provisions of Section 2.6.1(d) below, each Lender

shall, on the date such Revolving Loan was to have been made for the benefit of Borrower to settle outstanding Swing Line Loans or Agent Advances, purchase from the Swing Line Lender or Administrative Agent, as applicable, an undivided participation interest in the Swing Line Loan or Agent Advance in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of such Swing Line Loan or Agent Advance. Upon request, each Lender shall promptly transfer to the Swing Line Lender, in immediately available funds, the amount of its participation interest.

(c)Each Lender's obligation to make Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.8(a) and to purchase participation interests in accordance with Section 2.8(b) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Lender may have against the Swing Line Lender or Administrative Agent, Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (ii) the occurrence or continuance of any Default or Event of Default; (iii) any inability of Borrower to satisfy the conditions precedent to borrowing set forth in this Agreement at any time or (iv) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. If and to the extent any Lender shall not have made such amount available to the Administrative Agent or the Swing Line Lender, as applicable, by 2:00 P.M., Chicago time, the amount required pursuant to Sections 2.1.1(a) or 2.8(a), as the case may be, on the Business Day on which such Lender receives notice from the Administrative Agent of such payment or disbursement (it being understood that any such notice received after noon, Chicago time, on any Business Day shall be deemed to have been received on the next following Business Day), such Lender agrees to pay interest on such amount to the Administrative Agent for the Swing Line Lender's account forthwith on demand, for each day from the date such amount was to have been delivered to the Administrative Agent to the date such amount is paid, at a rate per annum equal to (a) for the first three days after demand, the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect and (b) thereafter, the Base Rate from time to time in effect.

2.9.Commitments Several.

The failure of any Lender to make a requested loan on any date shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation (if any) to make a Loan on such date, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make any Loan to be made by such other Lender.

2.10.Siena Payment Event.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, on any date on or after eighteen months after the Closing Date (the “Siena Payment Date”), Borrower may give ten (10) Business Days advance written request to Administrative Agent and Siena (the “Siena Payment Request”) of Borrower’s request to prepay all amounts due and owing under the Loan Documents to Siena (the Siena Payment Event”) and reduce the Applicable Margin to the Applicable Margin set forth in the Grid Pricing Table. Provided that (i) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under the Loan Documents; (ii) Administrative Agent consents in writing to implement the Applicable Margin set forth in the Grid Pricing Table, and (iii) Siena consents in writing to the Siena Payment Request, the Siena Payment Event will be permitted, and Borrower shall pay to Siena all Obligations due and owing from Borrower to Siena, including, without limitation, principal, accrued interest, any accrued and unpaid fees, and all other amounts due and payable under the Loan Documents. After the Siena Payment Date, Siena shall no longer be a Lender hereunder, and all obligations of Siena hereunder shall be terminated. In the event that Siena does not consent in writing to the Siena Payment Request within ten (10) business days after Siena’s receipt of the Siena Payment Request, the Siena Payment Event shall not be permitted, and Siena shall remain a Lender hereunder.

SECTION 3LETTERS OF CREDIT.

3.1.General Terms.

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan Document prior to the Maturity Date, Administrative Agent agrees to from time to time cause to be issued by an L/C Issuer and co-sign for or otherwise guarantee, upon Borrower's request, commercial and/or standby Letters of Credit; provided, that the aggregate undrawn face amount of all such Letters of Credit shall at no time exceed Ten Million and No/100 Dollars ($10,000,000). Payments made by the L/C Issuer to any Person on account of any Letter of Credit shall be immediately payable by Borrower without notice, presentment or demand and each Borrower agrees that each payment made by the L/C Issuer in respect of a Letter of Credit shall constitute a request by Borrower for a Loan to reimburse L/C Issuer. In the event such Loan is not advanced by Administrative Agent, Swingline Lender or Lenders for any reason, such reimbursement obligations (whether owing to the L/C Issuer or Administrative Agent if Administrative Agent is not the L/C Issuer) shall become part of the Obligations hereunder and shall bear interest at the rate then applicable to Revolving Loans constituting Base Rate Loans until repaid. Borrower shall remit to Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of Lenders having Revolving Loan Commitments, a Letter of Credit fee equal to the Letter of Credit Fee Applicable Margin per annum on the aggregate undrawn face amount of all Letters of Credit outstanding, which fee shall be payable in advance for the term of the Letter of Credit. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuance thereof, each the Letter of Credit fee shall be increased to an amount equal to two percent (2%) per annum in excess of the Letter of Credit fee otherwise payable thereon, which fee shall be payable on demand. Said fee shall be calculated on the basis of a 360 day year. Borrower shall also pay on demand the normal and customary administrative charges of L/C Issuer for issuance, amendment, negotiation, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit.

3.2.Letter of Credit Procedures.

3.2.1.L/C Applications. Each Borrower shall execute and deliver to the L/C Issuer the Master Letter of Credit Agreement from time to time in effect. Each Borrower shall give notice to Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer of the proposed issuance of each Letter of Credit on a Business Day which is at least three Business Days (or such lesser number of days as the L/C Issuer and Administrative Agent shall agree in any particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the proposed date of issuance of such Letter of Credit. Each such notice shall be accompanied by an L/C Application, duly executed by Borrower and in all respects satisfactory to the L/C Issuer, together with such other documentation as the L/C Issuer may request in support thereof, it being understood that each L/C Application shall specify, among other things, the date on which the proposed Letter of Credit is to be issued, the expiration date of such Letter of Credit (which shall not be later than the scheduled Maturity Date (unless such Letter of Credit is Cash Collateralized)) and whether such Letter of Credit is to be transferable in whole or in part. Any Letter of Credit outstanding after the scheduled Maturity Date which is Cash Collateralized for the benefit of the L/C Issuer shall be the sole responsibility of the L/C Issuer. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms of the Master Letter of Credit Agreement, any L/C Application and the terms of this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall control.

3.2.2.Reimbursement Obligations Unconditional. Each Borrower's reimbursement obligations hereunder shall be irrevocable and unconditional under all circumstances, including (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (b) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right which any Loan Party may have at any time against a beneficiary named in a Letter of Credit, any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such transferee may be acting), the L/C Issuer or any other Person, whether in connection with any Letter of Credit, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transactions (including any underlying transaction between any Loan Party and the beneficiary named in any Letter of Credit), (c) the validity, sufficiency or genuineness of any document which the L/C/ Issuer has determined complies on its face with the terms of the applicable Letter of Credit, even if such document should later prove to have been forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein shall have been untrue or inaccurate in any respect, or (d) the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms hereof. Without limiting the foregoing, no action or omission whatsoever by Administrative Agent or any Lender

under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or any related matters shall result in any liability of Administrative Agent or any Lender to any Loan Party, or relieve any Loan Party of any of its obligations hereunder to any such Person.

3.3.Expiration Dates of Letters of Credit.

The expiration date of each Letter of Credit shall be no later than the earlier of (i) one (1) year from the date of issuance and (ii) the thirtieth (30th) day prior to the Maturity Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Letter of Credit may provide for automatic extensions of its expiration date for one or more one (1) year periods, so long as the issuer thereof has the right to terminate the Letter of Credit at the end of each one (1) year period and no extension period extends past the thirtieth (30th) day prior to the Maturity Date.

3.4.Participations in Letters of Credit.

Concurrently with the issuance of each Letter of Credit, the applicable L/C Issuer shall be deemed to have sold and transferred to each Lender with a Revolving Loan Commitment, and each such Lender shall be deemed irrevocably and unconditionally to have purchased and received from such L/C Issuer, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation, to the extent of such Lender's Pro Rata Share, in such Letter of Credit and Borrower's reimbursement obligations with respect thereto. If Borrower does not pay any reimbursement obligation when due, Borrower shall be deemed to have immediately requested that the Lenders make a Revolving Loan which is a Base Rate Loan in a principal amount equal to such reimbursement obligations in accordance with Section 3.1. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify such Lenders of such deemed request and, without the necessity of compliance with the requirements of Section 2.2.2, Section 17.2 or otherwise such Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of such Loan. The proceeds of such Loan shall be paid over by the Administrative Agent to the applicable L/C Issuer for the account of Borrower in satisfaction of such reimbursement obligations. For the purposes of this Agreement, the unparticipated portion of each Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be the applicable L/C Issuer's "participation" therein. Each L/C Issuer hereby agrees to notify the Administrative Agent of the issuance of any Letter of Credit and, upon request of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, to deliver to the Administrative Agent or such Lender a list of all outstanding Letters of Credit issued by such L/C Issuer, together with such information related thereto as the Administrative Agent or such Lender may reasonably request.

SECTION 4INTEREST, FEES AND CHARGES.

4.1.Interest Rate.

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth below, the Loans shall bear interest at the per annum rate of interest set forth in subsection (a), (b) or (c) below:

(a)The Applicable Margin with respect to Base Rate Loans per annum plus the Base Rate in effect from time to time, payable on the first Business Day of each month in arrears for interest through the last day of the prior month. Said rate of interest shall increase or decrease by an amount equal to each increase or decrease in the Base Rate effective on the effective date of each such change in the Base Rate.

(b)The Applicable Margin with respect to LIBOR Loans plus the LIBO Rate for the applicable Interest Period, such rate to remain fixed for such Interest Period. Interest shall be payable on the last Business Day of such Interest Period and, with respect to two (2) and three (3) month Interest Periods, on the same date of each month as the initial date of the Interest Period during such Interest Period and on the last Business Day of such Interest Period.

(c)Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Loans shall bear interest at the rate of two percent (2.0%) per annum plus the interest rate otherwise payable thereon (the “Default Rate”), which interest shall be payable on demand; provided, however, that, other than with respect to Events of Default arising under Sections 15.1, 15.7 or 15.8, Borrower shall not be required to pay interest at the Default Rate for any periods in excess of 90 days prior to the date on which Administrative Agent provided written notice to Borrower regarding the applicable Event of Default. All interest shall be computed for the actual number of days elapsed on the basis of a 360 day year.

(d)The applicable LIBO Rate for each Interest Period shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and notice thereof shall be given by Administrative Agent promptly to Borrower. Each determination of the applicable LIBO Rate by Administrative Agent shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties hereto, in the absence of demonstrable error. Administrative Agent shall, upon written request of Borrower, deliver to Borrower a statement showing the computations used by Administrative Agent in determining any applicable LIBO Rate hereunder.

4.2.Increased Costs; Special Provisions For LIBOR Loans.

4.2.1.Increased Costs.

(a)If, after the Closing Date, any Change in Law: (i) shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve (including any reserve imposed by the FRB, but excluding any reserve included in the determination of the LIBO Rate pursuant to Section 4), special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in, by any Lender or L/C Issuer; (ii) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than Indemnified Taxes and Excluded Taxes) on its loan, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposit reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or (iii) shall impose on any Lender or L/C Issuer any other condition affecting this Agreement or its LIBOR Loans, its Note or its obligation to make LIBOR Loans; and the result of anything described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above is to increase the cost to (or to impose a cost on) any Lender (or any LIBOR Office of such Lender) of making or maintaining any LIBOR Loan, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by any Lender (or its LIBOR Office) (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) under this Agreement or under its Note with respect thereto, then upon demand by such Lender (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth the basis for such demand and a calculation of the amount thereof in reasonable detail), Borrower shall pay directly to such Lender such additional amount as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or such reduction.

(b)If any Lender or L/C Issuer shall reasonably determine that any Change in Law regarding capital adequacy, affecting such Lender or L/C Issuer, or any lending office of such Lender, or such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender's or L/C Issuer’s holding company’s capital as a consequence of such Lender's obligations hereunder or under any Letter of Credit to a level below that which such Lender or such controlling Person could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender's or such controlling Person's policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender or such controlling Person to be material, then from time to time, upon demand by such Lender (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth the basis for such demand and a calculation of the amount thereof in reasonable detail), Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount as will compensate such Lender or such controlling Person for such reduction.

(c)Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or L/C Issuer to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s right to demand such compensation; provided that Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or L/C Issuer pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender or L/C Issuer, as the case may be, notifies Borrower of the Change in

Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and of such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

4.2.2.Basis for Determining Interest Rate Inadequate or Unfair. If on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period:

(a)The Administrative Agent reasonably determines (which determination shall be binding and conclusive on Borrower) that by reason of circumstances affecting the interbank LIBOR market adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable LIBO Rate pursuant to the definition thereof; or

(b)the Required Lenders advise Administrative Agent that for any reason in connection with request for a LIBOR Loan or a conversion thereto or a continuation thereof that Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank Eurodollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such LIBOR Loans, the LIBO Rate as determined by Administrative Agent will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to any Lenders of maintaining or funding LIBOR Loans for such Interest Period or that the making or funding of LIBOR Loans has become impracticable as a result of an event occurring after the date of this Agreement which in the opinion of such Lender materially affects such Loans;

then Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Borrower and, so long as such circumstances shall continue, (i) no Lender shall be under any obligation to make or convert any Base Rate Loans into LIBOR Loans and (ii) on the last day of the current Interest Period for each LIBOR Loan, such Loan shall, unless then repaid in full, automatically convert to a Base Rate Loan until the Administrative Agent revokes such notice.

4.2.3.Changes in Law Rendering LIBOR Loans Unlawful. If any Change in Law, should make it (or in the good faith judgment of any Lender cause a substantial question as to whether it is) unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender to make, maintain or fund LIBOR Loans or to determine or charge interest rates based on LIBOR, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the London interbank market, then such Lender shall promptly notify each of the other parties hereto and, so long as such circumstances shall continue, (a) such Lender shall have no obligation to make continue LIBOR Loans or or convert any Base Rate Loan into a LIBOR Loan (but shall make Base Rate Loans concurrently with the making of or conversion of Base Rate Loans into LIBOR Loans by such Lender which are not so affected, in each case in an amount equal to the amount of LIBOR Loans which would be made or converted into by such Lender at such time in the absence of such circumstances) and (b) on the last day of the current Interest Period for each LIBOR Loan of such Lender (or, in any event, on such earlier date as may be required by the relevant law, regulation or interpretation), such LIBOR Loan shall, unless then repaid in full, automatically convert to a Base Rate Loan. Each Base Rate Loan made by a Lender which, but for the circumstances described in the foregoing sentence, would be a LIBOR Loan (an "Affected Loan") shall remain outstanding for the period corresponding to the Group of LIBOR Loans of which such Affected Loan would be a part absent such circumstances.

4.2.4.Funding Losses. Each Borrower hereby agrees that upon demand by any Lender (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth the basis for the amount being claimed, a copy of which shall be furnished to Administrative Agent) each Borrower will indemnify such Lender against any net loss or expense which such Lender may sustain or incur (including any net loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund or maintain any LIBOR Loan), as reasonably determined by such Lender, as a result of (a) any payment, prepayment or conversion of any LIBOR Loan of such Lender on a date other than the last day

of an Interest Period for such Loan (including any conversion pursuant to Section 2.2.3), or (b) any failure of such Borrower to borrow, prepay, convert or continue any Loan on a date specified therefor in a notice of borrowing, prepayment, conversion or continuation pursuant to this Agreement, (c) the conversion by such Borrower of any LIBOR Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, or (d) the assignment of any LIBOR Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period as a result of a request by Borrower. For this purpose, all notices to Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to be irrevocable and conclusive absent manifest error. Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such notice within 10 days after receipt thereof.

4.2.5.Right of Lenders to Fund through Other Offices. Each Lender may, if it so elects, fulfill its commitment as to any LIBOR Loan by causing a foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that in such event for the purposes of this Agreement such Loan shall be deemed to have been made by such Lender and the obligation of such Borrower to repay such Loan shall nevertheless be to such Lender and shall be deemed held by it, to the extent of such Loan, for the account of such branch or Affiliate.

4.2.6.Discretion of Lenders as to Manner of Funding. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, each Lender shall be entitled to fund and maintain its funding of all or any part of its Loans in any manner it sees fit, it being understood, however, that for the purposes of this Agreement all determinations hereunder shall be made as if such Lender had actually funded and maintained each LIBOR Loan during each Interest Period for such Loan through the purchase of deposits having a maturity corresponding to such Interest Period and bearing an interest rate equal to the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period.

4.2.7.Mitigation of Circumstances; Replacement of Lender.

(a)Each Lender shall promptly notify each Borrower and Administrative Agent of any event of which it has knowledge which will result in, and will use reasonable commercial efforts available to it (and not, in such Lender's sole judgment, otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender) to mitigate or avoid, (i) any obligation by any Borrower to pay any amount pursuant to Sections 4.2.1 or 4.4 or (ii) the occurrence of any circumstances described in Sections 4.2.2 or 4.2.3 (and, if such Lender has given notice of any such event described in clause (i) or (ii) above and thereafter such event ceases to exist, such Lender shall promptly so notify such Borrower and Administrative Agent). Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender will designate a different funding office if such designation will avoid (or reduce the cost to such Borrower of) any event described in clause (i) or (ii) above and such designation will not, in Lender's sole judgment, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b)If (i) Borrower becomes obligated to pay additional amounts to any Lender pursuant to Sections 4.2.1 or 4.4, or any Lender gives notice of the occurrence of any circumstances described in Sections 4.2.2 or 4.2.3 and in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section, (ii) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, or (iii) any Lender becomes a Non-Consenting Lender pursuant to Section 20.1, then Borrower may designate another lender which is acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer in their reasonable discretion (such other lender being called a "Replacement Lender") to purchase the Loans of such Lender and such Lender's rights hereunder (other than its existing rights to payment pursuant to Section 4.2.1 or Section 4.4), and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents, without recourse to or warranty by, or expense to, such Lender, provided that: (i) the purchase price is equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Loans payable to such Lender plus any accrued but unpaid interest on such Loans and all accrued but unpaid fees owed to such Lender and any other amounts payable to such Lender under this Agreement (including any amounts under Section 4.2.4), and to assume all the obligations of such Lender hereunder, and, upon such purchase and assumption (pursuant to an Assignment Agreement), such Lender shall no longer be a party hereto or have any rights

hereunder (other than rights with respect to indemnities and similar rights applicable to such Lender prior to the date of such purchase and assumption) and shall be relieved from all obligations to Borrower hereunder, and the Replacement Lender shall succeed to the rights and obligations of such Lender hereunder; (ii) in the case of any such purchase resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 4.2.1 or Section 4.4, such purchase will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; (iii) such purchase does not conflict with applicable law; and (iv) in the case of any purchase resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the Replacement Lender shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver, or consent.

A Lender shall not be required to make any such purchase or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling Borrower to require such purchase and delegation cease to apply.

Notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, (i) any Lender that acts as an L/C Issuer may not be replaced hereunder at any time it has any Letter of Credit outstanding hereunder unless arrangements satisfactory to such Lender (including the furnishing of a back-up standby Letter of Credit in form and substance, and issued by an issuer, reasonably satisfactory to such L/C Issuer or the depositing of cash collateral into a cash collateral account in amounts and pursuant to arrangements reasonably satisfactory to L/C Issuer) have been made with respect to such outstanding Letter of Credit and (ii) the Lender that acts as the Administrative Agent may not be replaced hereunder except in accordance with the terms of Section 18.10.

4.2.8.Conclusiveness of Statements; Survival of Provisions. Determinations and statements of a Lender pursuant to Sections 4.2.1, 4.2.2, 4.2.3 or 4.2.4 shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error. Each Lender may use reasonable averaging and attribution methods in determining compensation under Sections 4.2.1 and 4.2.4, and the provisions of such Sections shall survive repayment of the Obligations, cancellation of any Notes, expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and termination of this Agreement.

4.3.Fees And Charges.

4.3.1.Unused Line Fee: Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of Lenders having Revolving Loan Commitments, an unused line fee at a rate per annum of one-half of one percent (0.50%) of the difference between the Total Revolving Loan Commitment and the average daily balance of the Revolving Loans plus the Letter of Credit Obligations for each month, which fee shall be fully earned by such Lenders on the last day of each month and payable monthly in arrears on the first Business Day of each month with respect to all activity through the last day of the prior month. Said fee shall be calculated on the basis of a 360 day year.

4.3.2.Closing Fee. Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of Lenders having Revolving Loan Commitments, a closing fee equal to $175,000.00, which amount shall be fully earned and payable on the Closing Date.

4.3.3.Agent Fee Letter: Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent the fees set forth in the Agent Fee Letter.

4.3.4.Costs and Expenses: Borrower shall reimburse Administrative Agent for all reasonable and customary costs and expenses, including, without limitation, Attorney Costs incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with the (i) documentation and consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement including, without limitation, Uniform Commercial Code and other public record searches and filings, overnight courier or other express or messenger delivery, appraisal costs, surveys, title insurance and environmental audit or review costs; (ii) collection, protection or enforcement of any rights in or to the Collateral; (iii) collection of any Obligations; and (iv) administration and enforcement of any of Administrative Agent's and Lenders rights under this

Agreement or any other Loan Document (including, without limitation, any costs and expenses of any third party provider engaged by Administrative Agent for such purposes). Borrower shall also pay all normal service charges with respect to all accounts maintained by each Borrower with Administrative Agent and any additional services requested by any Borrower from Administrative Agent.

4.4.Taxes.

(a)To the extent permitted by applicable law, all payments hereunder or under the Loan Documents (including any payment of principal, interest, or fees) to, or for the benefit, of any person shall be made by the Loan Party free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for, or account of, any Taxes now or hereinafter imposed by any taxing authority.

(b)If a Loan Party shall be required by applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Administrative Agent) to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable to any Recipient hereunder or any other Loan Document: (i) such Loan Party shall make such deductions; (ii) such Loan Party shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxing or other authority in accordance with applicable law; and (iii) if the Taxes are Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable shall be increased by the Loan Party as much as shall be necessary so that after making all the required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 4.4), the Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it should have received had no such deductions been made. In addition, the Loan Parties shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Loan Parties to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section, Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(c)The Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify, and within ten (10) days of demand therefor, pay Administrative Agent and each other Recipient for the full amount of Indemnified Taxes and other reasonable liabilities, expenses and costs related thereto (including without limitation, reasonable attorneys' or tax advisors' fees and disbursements and Indemnified Taxes imposed on amounts received under this Section 4.4) that are paid by, or imposed on, Administrative Agent or such other Recipient (and any of their respective affiliates), whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Loan Parties by a lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d)(i)To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Lender that is not a United States person within the meaning of Code Section 7701(a)(30) (a "Non-U.S. Participant") shall deliver to Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the Closing Date (or in the case of a Lender that is an Assignee, on the date of such assignment to such Lender) two accurate and complete original signed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, W-8ECI, or W-8IMY (or any successor or other applicable form prescribed by the IRS) certifying to such Lender's entitlement to a complete exemption from, or a reduced rate in, United States federal withholding tax on interest payments to be made hereunder or any Loan. If a Lender that is a Non-U.S. Participant is claiming exemption from withholding on interest pursuant to Code Sections 871(h) or 881(c), such Lender shall deliver (along with two accurate and complete original signed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable) a certificate in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent (any such certificate, a "U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate"). In addition, each Lender that is a Non-U.S. Participant agrees that from time to time after the Closing Date, (or in the case of a Lender that is an Assignee, after the date of the assignment to such Lender), when a lapse in time (or change in circumstances occurs) renders the prior certificates hereunder obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, such Lender shall, to the extent

permitted under applicable law, deliver to Borrower and the Administrative Agent two new and accurate and complete original signed copies of an IRS Form W 8BEN, W-8BEN-E, W-8ECI, or W-8IMY (or any successor or other applicable forms prescribed by the IRS), and if applicable, a new U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate, to confirm or establish the entitlement of such Lender or the Administrative Agent to an exemption from, or reduction in, United States withholding tax on interest payments to be made hereunder or any Loan, or promptly notify Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(ii)Any Non-U.S. Participant shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the Closing Date (or in the case of a Lender that is an Assignee, on the date of such assignment to such Lender) (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent properly completed and duly executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in, U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made. If a payment made to a Lender under this Agreement, whether made by any Loan Party or Administrative Agent, would be subject to United States federal withholding taxes imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent as may be necessary for Borrower and Administrative Agent to comply with their applicable obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has or has not complied with the such Recipient's obligations under FATCA, or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Each Lender that is not a Non-U.S. Participant shall provide two properly completed and duly executed copies of IRS Form W-9 (or any successor or other applicable form) to Borrower and the Administrative Agent certifying that such Lender is exempt from United States backup withholding tax. To the extent that a form provided pursuant to this Section 4.4(d)(ii) is rendered obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect as result of change in circumstances with respect to the status of a Lender, such Lender shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, deliver to Borrower and the Administrative Agent revised forms necessary to confirm or establish the entitlement to such Lender's or Administrative Agent's exemption from United States backup withholding tax or promptly notify Borrower and Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(e)Each Lender agrees to severally indemnify the Administrative Agent and hold the Administrative Agent harmless for the full amount of any Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable to the Administrative Agent under this Section 4.4) which are imposed on or with respect to principal, interest or fees payable to such Lender hereunder and which are not paid by a Loan Party pursuant to this Section 4.4, whether or not such Taxes or related liabilities were correctly or legally asserted. This indemnification shall be made within 10 days from the date the Administrative Agent makes written demand therefor. A demand as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e).

(f)If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that is has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 4.4 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 4.4), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 4.4 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes)

of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (f) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (f), all payments required by a Lender under this paragraph (f) shall be subject to such Lender’s right of setoff under the Loan Documents, and in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (f) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to the such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph (f) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

4.5.Maximum Interest.

It is the intent of the parties that the rate of interest and other charges to Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be lawful; therefore, if for any reason the interest or other charges payable under this Agreement are found by a court of competent jurisdiction, in a final determination, to exceed the limit which a Lender may lawfully charge Borrower, then the obligation to pay interest and other charges shall automatically be reduced to such limit and, if any amount in excess of such limit shall have been paid, then such amount shall be refunded to Borrower.

SECTION 5COLLATERAL.

5.1.Grant of Security Interest to Administrative Agent.

As security for the payment of all Loans now or in the future made by Administrative Agent and Lenders to Borrower hereunder and for the payment, performance or other satisfaction of all other Obligations owing to Administrative Agent, Lenders and, to the extent constituting Obligations hereunder, any Affiliate of any Lender and all guaranties of the Obligations by the Loan Parties, each Loan Party hereby assigns to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of itself, the Lenders and their applicable Affiliates, and grants to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of itself, the Lenders and their applicable Affiliates, a continuing security interest in the following property of each such Loan Party, whether now or hereafter owned, existing, acquired or arising and wherever now or hereafter located: (a) all Accounts (whether or not Eligible Accounts) and all Goods whose sale, lease or other disposition by such Loan Party has given rise to Accounts and have been returned to, or repossessed or stopped in transit by, such Loan Party; (b) all Chattel Paper, Instruments, Documents and General Intangibles (including, without limitation, all patents, patent applications, trademarks, trademark applications, trade names, trade secrets, goodwill, copyrights, copyright applications, registrations, licenses, software, franchises, customer lists, tax refund claims, claims against carriers and shippers, guarantee claims, contract rights, payment intangibles, security interests, security deposits and rights to indemnification); (c) all Inventory (whether or not Eligible Inventory); (d) all Goods (other than Inventory), including, without limitation, Equipment, vehicles and Fixtures; (e) all Investment Property; (f) all Deposit Accounts, bank accounts, deposits and cash; (g) all Letter-of-Credit Rights; (h) Commercial Tort Claims (i) all Supporting Obligations; (j) any other property of such Loan Party now or hereafter in the possession, custody or control of Administrative Agent or any Lender or any agent or any parent, affiliate or subsidiary of Administrative Agent or any Lender or any participant with Administrative Agent or any Lender in the Loans, for any purpose (whether for safekeeping, deposit, collection, custody, pledge, transmission or otherwise) and (k) all additions and accessions to, substitutions for, and replacements, products and Proceeds of the foregoing property, including, without limitation, proceeds of all insurance policies insuring the foregoing property, and all of such Loan Party's books and records relating to any of the foregoing and to such Loan Party's business. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the security interest created

All sums paid by Administrative Agent in respect thereof and all costs, fees and expenses including, without limitation, Attorney Costs, all court costs and all other charges relating thereto incurred by Administrative Agent shall constitute Obligations, payable by Borrower to Administrative Agent on demand and, until paid, shall bear interest at the highest rate then applicable to Loans hereunder.

5.3.Possessory Collateral.

Promptly upon a Loan Party's receipt of any Investment Property consisting of certificated securities, such Loan Party shall deliver the original thereof to Administrative Agent together with an appropriate endorsement or other specific evidence of assignment thereof to Administrative Agent (in form and substance acceptable to Administrative Agent). If an endorsement or assignment of any such items shall not be made for any reason, Administrative Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized, as such Loan Party's attorney and agent-in-fact, to endorse or assign the same on such Loan Party's behalf.

Collateral in favor of Administrative Agent (free and clear of all other liens, claims, encumbrances and rights of third parties whatsoever, whether voluntarily or involuntarily created, except Permitted Liens) to secure payment of the Obligations, and in order to facilitate the collection of the Collateral. Each Loan Party irrevocably hereby makes, constitutes and appoints Administrative Agent (and all Persons designated by Administrative Agent for that purpose) as such Loan Party's true and lawful attorney and agent-in-fact to execute and file such financing statements, documents and other agreements and instruments and do such other acts and things as may be necessary to preserve and perfect Administrative Agent's security interest in the Collateral.

Neither any Loan Party nor any other member of the Controlled Group has engaged in any prohibited transaction (as defined in Section 4975 of the Code or Section 406 of ERISA) in connection with any Plan which would subject that Person to any material liability. Within the past five years, neither any Loan Party nor any other member of the Controlled Group has engaged in a transaction which resulted in a Plan with an Unfunded Liability being transferred out of the Controlled Group, which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Termination Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur with respect to any Plan, which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each "employee" pension benefit plan within the meaning of Section 3(2) of a Loan Party that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code has secured a determination letter or opinion letter from the IRS to that effect, and such determination letter or opinion letter is in effect.

Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any other Event of Default, the Obligations may, at the option of Administrative Agent or at the direction of Required Lenders, in whole or in part at Administrative Agent's or Required Lenders' sole discretion, and without demand, notice or legal process of any kind, be declared, and immediately shall become, due and payable.

16.2.Other Remedies

Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Administrative Agent may, and at the direction of Required Lenders shall, exercise from time to time any rights and remedies available to it under the Uniform Commercial Code and any other applicable law in addition to, and not in lieu of, any rights and remedies expressly granted in this Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents and all of Administrative Agent's and Lender's rights and remedies shall be cumulative and non-exclusive to the extent permitted by law. In particular, but not by way of limitation of the foregoing, Administrative Agent may, and at the direction of Required Lenders shall, without notice, demand or legal process of any kind, take possession of any or all of the Collateral (in addition to Collateral of which it already has possession), wherever it may be found, and for that purpose may pursue the same wherever it may be found, and may enter onto any of any Loan Party's premises where any of the Collateral may be, and search for, take possession of, remove, keep and store any of the Collateral until the same shall be sold or otherwise disposed of, and Administrative Agent shall have the right to store the same at any of any Loan Party's premises without cost to Administrative Agent or Lenders. At Administrative Agent's request, each Loan Party shall, at Borrower's expense, assemble the Collateral and make it available to Administrative Agent at one or more places to be designated by Administrative Agent and reasonably

convenient to Administrative Agent and such Loan Party. Each Loan Party recognizes that if a Loan Party fails to perform, observe or discharge any of its Obligations under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, no remedy at law will provide adequate relief to Administrative Agent or Lenders, and agrees that Administrative Agent shall be entitled to temporary and permanent injunctive relief in any such case without the necessity of proving actual damages. Any notification of intended disposition of any of the Collateral required by law will be deemed to be a reasonable authenticated notification of disposition if given at least ten (10) days prior to such disposition and such notice shall (i) describe Administrative Agent and Lenders and such Loan Party, (ii) describe the Collateral that is the subject of the intended disposition, (iii) state the method of the intended disposition, (iv) state that such Loan Party is entitled to an accounting of the Obligations and state the charge, if any, for an accounting and (v) state the time and place of any public disposition or the time after which any private sale is to be made. Administrative Agent may disclaim any warranties that might arise in connection with the sale, lease or other disposition of the Collateral and has no obligation to provide any warranties at such time.

In the absence of a specific determination by Administrative Agent, the Proceeds from the sale of, or other realization upon, all or any part of the Collateral in payment of the Obligations shall be applied in the following order.

FIRST, to the payment of all fees, costs, expenses and indemnities of Administrative Agent (in its capacity as such), including Attorney Costs, and any other Obligations owing to Administrative Agent in respect of sums advanced by Administrative Agent to preserve the Collateral or to preserve its security interest in the Collateral, until paid in full:

SECOND, to the payment of all of the Secured Obligations in respect of the Swing Line Loans to the Swing Line Lender, until paid in full;

THIRD, to the payment of all of the Obligations consisting of accrued and unpaid interest owing to the Lenders and Letter of Credit fees owing to the L/C Issuer, ratably among the Lenders and the L/C Issuer in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause FOURTH payable to them, until paid in full;

FOURTH, to the payment of all Obligations consisting of principal owing to the Lenders and Bank Product Obligations owing to Lenders or their Affiliates (to the extent that Administrative Agent has established a reserve against Revolving Loan Availability in an amount not less than such Bank Product Obligations), ratably among the Lenders and their Affiliates in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause FOURTH held by them, until paid in full;

FIFTH, to the payment of the Lenders an amount equal to all Obligations in respect of outstanding Letters of Credit to be held as Cash Collateral in respect of such Obligations;

SIXTH, to the payment of all other Obligations owing to the Lenders until paid in full, including, without limitation, Bank Product Obligations owing to Lenders or their Affiliates (to the extent that Administrative Agent has not established a reserve for such Bank Product Obligations); and

SEVENTH, to the payment of any remaining Proceeds, if any, to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive such amounts.

16.3.Credit Bidding.

The Loan Parties and the Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize (and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product provider shall be deemed to authorize) Administrative Agent, based upon the instruction of the Required Lenders, to Credit Bid and purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral (and the Loan Parties shall approve Administrative Agent as a qualified bidder and such Credit Bid as qualified bid) at any sale thereof conducted by Administrative Agent, based upon the instruction of the Required Lenders, under any provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code, as part of any sale or investor solicitation process conducted by any Credit Party, any interim receiver, receiver, receiver and manager, administrative receiver, trustee, agent or other Person pursuant or under any insolvency laws; provided, however, that (i) the Required Lenders may not direct the Administrative Agent in any manner that does not treat each of the Lenders equally, without preference or discrimination, in respect of consideration received as a result of the Credit Bid, (ii) the acquisition documents shall be commercially reasonable and contain customary protections for minority holders such as among other things, anti-dilution and tag-along rights, (iii) the exchanged debt or equity securities must be freely transferable, without restriction (subject to applicable securities laws) and (iv) reasonable efforts shall be made to structure the acquisition in a manner that causes the governance documents pertaining thereto to not impose any obligations or liabilities upon the Lenders individually (such as indemnification obligations).

For purposes of the preceding sentence, the term "Credit Bid" shall mean, an offer submitted by the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Lender group), based upon the instruction of the Required Lenders, to acquire the property of any Loan Party or any portion thereof in exchange for and in full and final satisfaction of all or a portion (as determined by the Administrative Agent, based upon the instruction of the Required Lenders) of the claims and Obligations under this Agreement and other Loan Documents.

(a)No Default or Event of Default shall exist at the time of or result from such funding, issuance or grant;

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term "agent" herein and in other Loan Documents with reference to the 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. Administrative Agent shall provide copies of all financial statements and projections delivered to Administrative Agent by any Loan Party pursuant to Section 9 hereof, and copies of all material notices delivered to Administrative Agent by any Loan Party either by delivering copies to each Lender by electronic mail or by posting such materials to an internet service accessible by such Lenders such as "Intralinks".

Letters of Credit issued by them or proposed to be issued by them and the applications and agreements for letters of credit pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term "Administrative Agent", as used in this Section 18, included the L/C Issuers with respect to such acts or omissions and (b) as additionally provided in this Agreement with respect to the L/C Issuers.

18.4.Exculpation of Administrative Agent.

None of the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents 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 to the extent resulting from its own gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein as determined by a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction), (b) not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any debtor relief law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any debtor relief law or (c) be responsible in any manner to any Lender or participant for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by any Loan Party or Affiliate of any Loan Party, or any officer thereof, contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the 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 the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien or security interest therein), or for any failure of any Loan Party or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its Obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Administrative Agent shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of each Loan Party or any of any Loan Party's Subsidiaries or Affiliates.

18.5.Reliance by Administrative Agent.

incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The 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 the Required Lenders and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon each Lender. For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Section 12, 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 the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from such Lender prior to the proposed Closing Date specifying its objection thereto.

The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Event of Default or Default except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or a Loan Party referring to this Agreement, describing such Event of Default or Default and stating that such notice is a "notice of default". The Administrative Agent will notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Event of Default or Default as may be requested by the Required Lenders in accordance with Section 16; provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent has received any such request, the 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 or Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Lenders.

18.7.Credit Decision.

Each Lender acknowledges that the Administrative Agent has not made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any consent and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of the Loan Parties, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to any Lender as to any matter, including whether the Administrative Agent has disclosed material information in its possession. Each Lender represents to the Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties, 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 the Administrative Agent and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly herein required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent, the 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 or other condition or creditworthiness of the Loan Parties which may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent.

18.8.Indemnification.

Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, each Lender shall indemnify upon demand the Administrative Agent and its directors, officers, employees and agents (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrower and without limiting the obligation of Borrower to do so), according to its applicable Pro Rata Share, from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities (as hereinafter defined); provided that no Lender shall be liable for any payment to any such Person of any

portion of the Indemnified Liabilities to the extent determined by a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the applicable Person's own gross negligence or willful misconduct. No action taken in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse the Administrative Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any Agent Advances and any costs or out of pocket expenses (including Attorney Costs and Taxes) incurred by the 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 the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of Borrower.

Each Lender acknowledges that, pursuant to such activities, CIBC US or its Affiliates may receive information regarding the Loan Parties or their Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of the Loan Parties or such Affiliate) and acknowledge that the Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to their Loans (if any), CIBC US and its Affiliates shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though CIBC US were not the Administrative Agent, and the terms "Lender" and "Lenders" include CIBC US and its Affiliates, to the extent applicable, in their individual capacities.

18.10.Successor Administrative Agent.

The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon 30 days' notice to the Lenders. If the Administrative Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall, with (so long as no Event of Default exists) the consent of Borrower (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders. If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders and (so long as no Event of Default is then continuing) Borrower, a successor agent from among the Lenders. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor agent hereunder, such successor agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the term "Administrative Agent" shall mean such successor agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent's appointment, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated (except for any indemnity payments owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent). After any retiring Administrative Agent's resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 18 and Sections 4.3.5 and 19.2 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 agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date which is 30 days following a retiring Administrative Agent's notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent's resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Lenders shall perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (c) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to Borrower and such Person remove such Person as

Administrative Agent and, in consultation with Borrower, appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on such date.

Borrower shall be deemed to have granted its consent to any assignment requiring its consent hereunder unless Borrower has expressly objected to such assignment within five (5) Business Days after notice thereof. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Siena may at any time assign to Siena Funding LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Siena Funding”), all or any portion of Siena’s Loans and Commitments.

(b)From and after the date on which the conditions described above have been met, (i) such Assignee shall be deemed automatically to have become a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to such Assignee pursuant to such Assignment Agreement, shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and (ii) the assigning Lender, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment Agreement, shall be released from its rights (other than its indemnification rights) and obligations hereunder. Upon the request of the Assignee (and, as applicable, the assigning Lender) pursuant to an effective Assignment Agreement, Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent for delivery to the Assignee (and, as applicable, the assigning Lender), if such Lender is receiving an assignment of Revolving Loans, a Note in the principal amount of the Assignee's Pro Rata Share of the Total Revolving Loan Commitment (and, as applicable, a Note in the principal amount of the Pro Rata Share of the Total Revolving Commitment retained by the assigning Lender). Each such Note shall be dated the effective date of such assignment.

Any Lender may at any time upon written notice to Borrower sell to one or more Persons participating interests in its Loans, Revolving Loan Commitment or other interests hereunder (any such Person, a "Participant"). In the event of a sale by a Lender of a participating interest to a Participant, (a) such Lender's obligations hereunder shall remain unchanged for all purposes, (b) each Loan Party shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations hereunder, (c) all amounts payable by Borrower shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation and shall be paid directly to such Lender and (d) each Lender granting a participation hereunder shall maintain, as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrower, a register (the

"Participation Register") as to the participations granted and transferred under this Section 19.1.2 containing the same information specified in Section 19.2 on the Register as if the each participant were a Lender, and no participation may be transferred except as recorded in such Participation Register.

Each Loan Party agrees that if amounts outstanding under this Agreement are due and payable (as a result of acceleration or otherwise), each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of set-off in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement and with respect to any Letter of Credit to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as such Lender under this Agreement; provided that such right of set-off shall be subject to the obligation of each Participant to share with such Lender, and such Lender agrees to share with each Participant, on a pro rata basis. Borrower also agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 4.2 or 4.4 as if it were Lender (provided that on the date of the participation no Participant shall be entitled to any greater compensation pursuant to Section 4.2 or 4.4 than would have been paid to such Lender on such date if no participation had been sold. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. This Section shall be construed so that the Loans are at all times maintained in “registered form” for the purpose of the Code and any related regulations (and any successor provisions). The Participant Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

19.2.Register.

The Administrative Agent shall, as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a copy of each Assignment Agreement delivered and accepted by it and register (the "Register") for the recordation of names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment of each Lender and principal and stated interest of each Loan owing to each Lender from time to time and whether such Lender is the original Lender or the Assignee. No assignment shall be effective unless and until the Assignment Agreement is accepted and registered in the Register. All records of transfer of a Lender's interest in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, as to the ownership of the interests in the Loans. The Administrative Agent shall not incur any liability of any kind with respect to any Lender with respect to the maintenance of the Register. Each Lender granting a participation shall, as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register containing information similar to that of the Register in a manner such that the loans hereunder are in "registered form" for the purposes of the Code. This Section shall be construed so that the Loans are at all times maintained in "registered form" for the purpose of the Code and any related regulations (and any successor provisions). The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

Further, such Prior Loan Documents are hereby supplemented by and/or substituted with the Loan Documents as defined and provided for herein. This Agreement, as amended and restated hereby, and each of the Prior Loan Documents remain in full force and effect and are hereby reaffirmed in all respects to the extent not superseded by and/or in conflict with this Agreement and the Loan Documents.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have duly executed this Agreement as of the date first written above.
