(ii) from November 2, 2008 until the Term Loan Maturity Date, at the Borrowers’ option, (A) the Borrowers’ shall pay cash interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans at a rate per annum equal to the Term Loan Rate, payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, or (B) (I) the Borrowers’ shall pay cash interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans at a rate per annum equal to 10.5%, payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, and (II) the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans shall also bear interest at a rate per annum equal to 3.0%, and all such accrued interest shall be added to the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loans on each Interest Payment Date.

(d) Repayment of Term Loans. The Borrowers hereby unconditionally promise to pay to the Agent for the account of the Lenders the entire unpaid principal amount of the Term Loans on the Term Loan Maturity Date.

(e) Loan Accounts. Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account evidencing the Indebtedness of the Borrowers to such Lender in respect of the Term Loans, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder. The Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record the amount of each Lender’s portion of the Term Loans made hereunder, the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrowers to each Lender hereunder and the amount of any sum received by the Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof. The entries made in the account maintained by the Agent pursuant to this subsection 2.2(d) shall be conclusive evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein absent manifest error; provided that the failure of the Agent to maintain such account or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay the Term Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(f) Term Note. Prior to the Closing Date, the Borrowers shall prepare, execute and deliver to each Lender a Term Note in the principal amount of such Lender’s Commitment. Thereafter, such Lender’s portion of the Term Loans evidenced by such Term Note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 10.4) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein.

2.2 Prepayment Fee. In connection with any prepayment of all or any portion of the Term Loans, the Borrowers shall pay to the Agent, for the account of each Lender, in addition to the principal amount of the Term Loans prepaid (and all other amounts required to be paid in connection therewith), a prepayment fee (the “Prepayment Fee”) as liquidated damages for the loss of the bargain and not as a penalty, as follows: (a) during the period from the Closing Date until November 1, 2008, the Borrowers shall pay a prepayment fee equal to the Make Whole Amount, and (b) at any time after the date set forth in clause (a) hereof, the Borrowers shall pay a prepayment fee equal to (i) the product of the principal amount of the Term Loans being prepaid, multiplied by (ii) the applicable Prepayment Fee Percentage set forth below as in effect on the date such prepayment occurs:

Period during which Prepayment Occurs	Applicable Prepayment Fee Percentage
November 2, 2008 to November 2, 2009:	5.0%
November 2, 2009 to May 1, 2010:	2.5%
May 2, 2010 and thereafter:	0.0%

2.3 Payments.

(a) Payment Generally. The Borrowers shall be obligated to make each payment required to be made by the Borrowers hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees or otherwise) to the Agent at its offices in Boston, Massachusetts, prior to 3:00 p.m., Boston, Massachusetts time, on the date when due (except that if any payment shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension). All payments shall be made in immediately available funds, in U.S. dollars without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the reasonable discretion of the Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon.

(b) Application of Payments. If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest and fees then due hereunder under any circumstances, including, without limitation during, or as a result of the exercise by the Agent or the Lenders of remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document and applicable law, such funds shall be applied (i) first, to pay interest, fees, costs and expenses then due hereunder ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest, fees, costs and expenses then due to such parties, (ii) second, to pay principal then due hereunder ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal then due to such parties, and (iii) third, to any other Obligations then due from the Credit Parties to the Agent or the Lenders.

(c) Pro Rata Treatment. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Term Loans (other than pursuant to Section 2.6), resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate principal amount of its Term Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion of such amounts received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Term Loans of the other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of such payments shall be shared by all the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Term Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest unless the Lender from which such payment is recovered is required to pay interest thereon, in which case each Lender returning funds to such Lender shall pay its pro rata share of such interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Term Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to any Credit Party or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). The Borrowers consent to the foregoing and agree, to the extent they may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrowers rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrowers in the amount of such participation.

(d) Agent’s Assumption that Borrowers will Make Payments. Unless the Agent shall have received notice from the Borrowers prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Agent for the account of the Lenders entitled thereto (the “Applicable Recipient”) hereunder that the Borrowers will not make such payment, the Agent may assume that the Borrowers have made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Applicable Recipient the amount due. In such event, if the Borrowers have not in fact made such payment, then each Applicable Recipient severally agrees to repay to the Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Applicable Recipient with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Agent, at the Federal Funds Effective Rate.

(e) Lender’s Failure to Make Payment. If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to subsection 2.1(b), then the Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such subsection until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

2.4 Prepayment of Term Loans.

(a) Optional Prepayments of Term Loans. The Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay the Term Loans in whole or in part, which prepayment shall be accompanied by a prepayment of all accrued and unpaid interest and fees, subject to the payment of the Prepayment Fee as set forth in Section 2.2. Each optional prepayment shall be in a principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof.

(b) Mandatory Prepayments. The Borrowers shall be obligated to, and shall, make prepayments of the Term Loans, which prepayment shall be accompanied by a prepayment of all accrued and unpaid interest and fees and subject to the payment of the Prepayment Fee as set forth in Section 2.2, as follows:

(i) Incurrence of Debt. Without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to obtain the consent of the Required Lenders to any incurrence of Indebtedness not otherwise permitted hereunder, the Borrowers shall prepay the Term Loans, upon the date of any incurrence of Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness permitted pursuant to Section 7.1), in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of the amount of the Net Cash Payments from such incurrence of Indebtedness received by any Credit Party.

(ii) Sale of Assets. Without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to obtain the consent of the Required Lenders to any Disposition not otherwise permitted hereunder, the Borrowers shall prepay the Term Loans upon the date of any Disposition by any Credit Party, in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of the amount of such Net Cash Payments from such Disposition received by any Credit Party on the date of such Disposition.

(iii) Proceeds of Casualty Events. Upon the receipt by the Agent or the Credit Parties of the proceeds of insurance, condemnation award or other compensation in respect of any Casualty Event affecting any property of the Credit Parties in excess of $200,000, the Borrowers shall prepay the Term Loans in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Payments from such Casualty Event.

(iv) Term Loans Exceed the Borrowing Base. If at any time, the outstanding Term Loans exceed the lesser of the Commitments or Borrowing Base, then the Borrowers shall immediately prepay the Term Loans in an aggregate amount equal to such excess, and, if applicable, the Total Commitment shall be permanently reduced to equal the Borrowing Base at the time of such mandatory prepayment.

(c) Notification of Certain Prepayments. The Borrowers shall notify the Agent by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of any voluntary prepayment of the Term Loans not later than 1:00 p.m., Boston, Massachusetts time, three Business Days before the date of such prepayment. The Borrowers shall notify the Agent of any mandatory prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to subsection 2.4(b) hereunder as soon as practicable. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the portion of the Term Loans to be prepaid, unless with respect to a partial prepayment, the event causing such prepayment fails to occur. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to the prepayment of Term Loans, the Agent shall advise the Lenders of such mandatory prepayment. Upon any prepayment of the Term Loans in full, and provide that the Commitments have been terminated, the Loan Documents shall terminate, subject to the survival of any obligations hereunder that, by their terms, expressly survive such termination.

2.5 Commitment Fee. The Borrowers have previously paid to the Agent, for the account of each Lender in accordance with its Applicable Percentage, a commitment fee of $75,000. Agent hereby acknowledges receipt of the commitment fee. Such commitment fee shall be fully earned when paid and shall be non-refundable for any reason whatsoever.

2.6 Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any Obligations of the Borrowers hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if the Borrowers shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.6) the Agent or any Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrowers shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrowers shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) In addition, the Borrowers shall pay all Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c) The Borrowers shall indemnify the Agent, each Lender within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.6) paid by the Agent, such Lender (and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto during the period prior to the Borrowers making the payment demanded under this paragraph (c)), whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other 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 Borrowers by a Lender, or by the Agent on its behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Within thirty (30) days after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrowers to a Governmental Authority, the Borrowers shall deliver to the 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 Agent.

The Agent

9.1 Appointment and Authorization. Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints the Agent as its agent and authorizes the Agent as the exclusive party to take any and all actions on its behalf and to have exclusive authority to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

9.2 Agent’s Rights as Lender. The Agent shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender hereunder as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent, and such institution and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with any Credit Party or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Agent hereunder.

9.3 Duties As Expressly Stated. The Agent shall have no duty or obligation except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that the Agent is required to exercise in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as is required hereunder with respect to such action), and (c) except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, the Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, or shall be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Credit Party or any of their respective Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Agent or any of its Affiliates or Approved Funds in any capacity. The Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as is required hereunder with respect to such action) or all of the Lenders if expressly required, or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Default other than a Default of the types specified in Section 8.1(a) unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Agent by the Borrowers or a Lender, and the Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in, or in connection with, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents or in connection herewith of therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or in any other Loan Document, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article 5 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Agent. The Agent shall not, except to the extent the Agent expressly instructed by the Required Lenders with respect to collateral security hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, be required to initiate or conduct any litigation or collection proceedings hereunder or under any other Loan Document; provided, however, that the Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes the Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to the Loan Documents or applicable law.

9.4 Reliance By Agent. The Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. The Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. The Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders) as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action (it being understood that this provision shall not release the Agent from performing any action with respect to the Borrowers expressly required to be performed by it pursuant to the terms hereof) under this Agreement. The Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Term Loans.

9.5 Action Through Sub-Agents. The Agent may perform any and all of its duties, and exercise its rights and powers, by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Agent. The Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through its Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to its activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities of the Agent.

9.6 Resignation of Agent and Appointment of Successor Agent. Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Agent, as provided in this paragraph, the Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders and the Credit Parties. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Credit Parties, to appoint a successor Agent. If no successor shall have been so appointed and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after such retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then such retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be a bank or other financial institution with an office in Boston, Massachusetts or New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank or other financial institution. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Agent hereunder, by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. The fees payable by the Borrowers to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrowers and such successor. After an Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.3 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as Agent.

9.7 Lenders’ Independent Decisions. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. Except as explicitly provided herein, the Agent has no duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect to such operations, business, property, condition or creditworthiness, whether such information comes into its possession on or before the first Event of Default or at any time thereafter. The Agent shall not be deemed a trustee or other fiduciary on behalf of any party.

9.8 Indemnification. Each Lender agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Agent (to the extent not reimbursed under Section 10.3, but without limiting the obligations of the Borrowers under Section 10.3), ratably in accordance with the aggregate principal amount of the respective Commitments of and/or Term Loans held by the Lenders (or, if all of the Commitments shall have been terminated or expired, ratably in accordance with the aggregate outstanding amount of the Term Loans held by the Lenders), for any and all liabilities (including pursuant to any Environmental Law), obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, deficiencies, suits, costs, expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees) or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Agent (including by any Lender) arising out of or by reason of any investigation in or in any way relating to or arising out of any Loan Document or any other documents contemplated by or referred to therein for any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Agent under or in respect of any of the Loan Documents or other such documents or the transactions contemplated thereby (including the costs and expenses that the Borrowers are obligated to pay under Section 10.3, but excluding, unless a Default has occurred and is continuing, normal administrative costs and expenses incident to the performance of its agency duties hereunder) or the enforcement of any of the terms hereof or thereof or of any such other documents; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent they are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party to be indemnified. The agreements set forth in this Section 9.8 shall survive the payment of all Term Loans and other obligations hereunder and shall be in addition to and not in lieu of any other indemnification agreements contained in any other Loan Document.

9.9 Consents Under Other Loan Documents. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the Agent may, with the prior consent of the Required Lenders (but not otherwise), consent to any modification, supplement or waiver under any of the other Loan Documents.

(a) No failure or delay by the Agent or the Lenders in exercising any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Agent and Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by any Credit Party or Subsidiary therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section 10.2, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given.

(b) Neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrowers and the Required Lenders or by the Borrowers and the Agent with the written consent of the Required Lenders and the Agent; provided that no such agreement shall:

(i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender and the Agent;

(iii) postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Term Loan other than mandatory prepayments of the Term Loans required under Section 2.4(b), or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, change the maturity date of any Term Loan, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby;

(vi) change any of the provisions of this Section 10.2 or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or under any other Loan Document or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder or thereunder, without the written consent of each Lender;

(vii) release any of the Guarantors from its obligations in respect of its Guarantee under Article 3 or release any material portion of the Collateral (or terminate any Lien with respect thereto), except as expressly permitted in this Agreement, without the written consent of each Lender;

(viii) waive any of the conditions precedent specified in Section 5.1 without the written consent of each Lender and the Agent; or

(ix) subordinate the Term Loans to any other Indebtedness, without the written consent of each Lender;

provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Agent hereunder without the prior written consent of the Agent.

(c) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, no waiver or modification of any provision of this Agreement that has the effect (either immediately or at some later time) of enabling the Borrowers to satisfy a condition precedent to the making of the Term Loans shall be effective against the Lenders unless the Required Lenders shall have concurred with such waiver or modification.

10.3 Expenses; Indemnity: Damage Waiver.

(a) The Credit Parties jointly and severally agree to pay, or reimburse the Agent or the Lenders, as applicable, for paying, (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agent and its Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of Special Counsel, in connection with the syndication of the Term Loans provided for herein, preparation of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and incurred prior to the Closing Date, after giving credit to the Borrowers for amounts previously paid and subject to a maximum amount of $100,000 (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agent or any Lender, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of one counsel for the Agent or any Lender, in connection with any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof or for obtaining and perfecting security interests in any of the Collateral after the Closing Date, (iii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agent or any Lender, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of one counsel for the Agent or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of their rights in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including their rights under this Section 10.3, or in connection with the Term Loans made hereunder, including in connection with any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect thereof, and (iv) all Other Taxes levied by any Governmental Authority in respect of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any other document referred to herein or therein and all costs, expenses, taxes, assessments and other charges incurred in connection with any filing, registration, recording or perfection of any security interest contemplated by any Loan Document or any other document referred to therein.

(b) The Credit Parties jointly and severally agree to indemnify the Agent, each Lender and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee and settlement costs, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties hereto and thereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or any other transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any Term Loan or the use of the proceeds therefrom, (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned, leased or operated by any Credit Party or any Subsidiary, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to any Credit Party or any Subsidiary, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.

(c) If any indemnified person is entitled to indemnification hereunder, such Indemnitee shall give prompt notice to the Credit Parties of any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding against the Indemnitees brought by any third party with respect to which such Indemnitee seeks indemnification pursuant hereto; provided, however, that the failure so to notify the Credit Parties shall not relieve the Credit Parties from any obligation or liability except to the extent the Credit Parties are prejudiced by such failure. The Credit Parties shall have the right, exercisable by giving written notice to an Indemnitee promptly after the receipt of written notice from such Indemnitee of such claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding, to assume, at the expense of the Credit Parties, the defense of any such claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnitees. In the event the Credit Parties elect not to assume the defense of such claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding, and there is more than one Indemnitee, the Credit Parties shall not be responsible for paying for more than one separate firm of attorneys to represent all of the Indemnitees, regardless of the number of Indemnitees. The Indemnitees will not be subject to any liability for any settlement made without its or their consent (but such consent will not be unreasonably withheld), unless such settlement includes as an unconditional term thereof the giving by claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnitees or persons of a release from all liability in respect of such claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding.

(d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, none of the Credit Parties shall assert, and each Credit Party hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the transactions contemplated hereby, any Term Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof.

(e) All amounts due under this Section 10.3 shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor and delivery to the Credit Parties of copies of all relevant invoices, receipts or other evidence reasonably requested by the Credit Parties.

10.4 Successors and Assigns.

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that no Credit Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders and the Agent (and any attempted assignment or transfer without such consent shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of the Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) Each Lender may at any time and from time to time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of the Term Loans at the time owing to it); provided that for any assignment:

(i) except in the case of an assignment of a Term Loan to a Lender that holds a Term Loan prior to such assignment or an Affiliate of such a Lender or an Approved Fund (in which case, the assignee and assignor Lenders shall give notice of the assignment to the Agent), the Borrowers and the Agent (and, in the case of an assignment of all or a portion of a Commitment) each must give its prior written consent to such assignment (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned),

(ii) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate or Approved Fund of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment, shall not be less than $1,000,000 unless the Borrowers and the Agent otherwise consent,

(iii) each Lender shall assign its Commitment and Term Loan in the same proportions, such that after giving effect to such assignment, the Assignor’s Applicable Percentage of the Total Commitment shall be the same as the Assignor’s Applicable Percentage of the outstanding Term Loan, and the Assignee’s Applicable Percentage of the Total Commitment shall be the same as the Assignee’s Applicable Percentage of the outstanding Term Loan,

(iv) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, and, unless such assignment is to a Lender or its Affiliate or Approved Fund, shall pay a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, and

(v) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Agent such other documents and information as reasonably requested by the Agent;

provided further that any consent of the Borrowers otherwise required under this paragraph shall not be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or in the event of an assignment to an existing Lender.

(c) Upon acceptance and recording pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section 10.4, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.3). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with paragraph (b) of this Section 10.4 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (f) of this Section.

(d) The Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices in Boston, Massachusetts a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Term Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrowers, the Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(e) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, such other documents and information as are requested by the Agent, the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 10.4 and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section 10.4, the Agent shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(f) Any Lender may, without the consent of or notice to the Borrowers or the Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Term Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrowers, the Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 11.2(b), or in Section 11.2(c), that affects such Participant.

(g) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any such pledge or assignment to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(h) Anything in this Section 10.4 to the contrary notwithstanding, no Lender may assign or participate any interest in any Term Loan held by it hereunder to any Credit Party or any of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries without the prior consent of each Lender and the Agent.

(i) A Lender may furnish any information concerning any Credit Party or any Subsidiary in the possession of such Lender from time to time to assignees and participants (including prospective assignees and participants) subject, however, to and so long as the recipient agrees in writing to be bound by, the provisions of Section 10.13. In addition, the Agent may furnish any information concerning any Credit Party or any Subsidiary or any Affiliate in the Agent’s possession to any Affiliate of the Agent, subject, however, to the provisions of Section 10.13. The Credit Parties shall assist any Lender in effectuating any assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 10.4 in whatever manner such Lender reasonably deems necessary, including participation in meetings with prospective transferees.

10.5 Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Credit Parties and Subsidiaries herein and in the other Loan Documents, and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the making of any Term Loans, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect so long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Term Loan or any fee or any other Obligation payable under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is outstanding and unpaid and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.6 and 10.3 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Term Loans or the termination of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any provision hereof or thereof.

10.6 Counterparts; Integration; References to Agreement; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement constitutes the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Whenever there is a reference in any Loan Document or UCC Financing Statement to the “Credit Agreement” to which the Agent, the Lenders and the Credit Parties are parties, such reference shall be deemed to be made to this Agreement among the parties hereto. Except as provided in Article 5, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Agent and Lenders and when the Lenders shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

10.7 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

10.8 Right of Setoff. Each Credit Party hereby grants to the Agent and each Lender that from time to time maintains any deposit accounts, holds any funds or otherwise becomes indebted to the Credit Parties a security interest in all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) and funds at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by the Agent or any Lender to or for the credit or the account of any Credit Party as security for the Obligations, and the Credit Parties hereby agree that if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Agent and each Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) or other funds at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by the Agent or any Lender to or for the credit or the account of any Credit Party against any and all of the Obligations, irrespective of whether or not the Agent or Lenders shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although any of the Obligations may be unmatured. The rights of the Agent and each Lender under this Section 10.8 are in addition to any other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which the Agent or such Lender may have.

10.9 Subordination by Credit Parties. The Credit Parties hereby agree that all present and future Indebtedness of any Credit Party to another Credit Party (“Intercompany Indebtedness”) shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment and priority to the Obligations, and each Credit Party agrees not to make, demand, accept or receive any payment in respect of any present or future Intercompany Indebtedness, including, without limitation, any payment received through the exercise of any right of setoff, counterclaim or cross claim, or any collateral therefor, unless and until such time as the Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full; provided that, so long as no Default shall have occurred and be continuing and no Default shall be caused thereby, the Credit Parties may make and receive such payments. Without in any way limiting the foregoing, in the event of any insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings, or any receivership, liquidation, reorganization, dissolution or other similar proceedings relative to any Credit Party or to its businesses, properties or assets, the Lenders shall be entitled to receive payment in full of all of the Obligations before any Credit Party shall be entitled to receive any payment in respect of any present or future Intercompany Indebtedness.

10.10 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.

(a) This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the internal laws (including, without limitation, Section 5-1401 of the New York State Consolidated Laws, but otherwise without regard to the conflict of laws provisions) of the State of New York.

(b) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any U.S. federal or New York State court sitting in New York, New York in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Document any each party hereto hereby irrevocably agrees that all claims in respect of such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in any such court and irrevocably waives any objection it may now or hereafter have as to the venue of any such suit, action, or proceeding brought in such a court or that such court is an inconvenient forum. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that the Agent or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement against any Credit Party or any Subsidiary or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

(c) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 10.10. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

(d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 10.1. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

10.11 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 10.11.

10.12 Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

10.13 Confidentiality. Notwithstanding anything otherwise set forth herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary (other than Section 8.1(c) hereof, which the parties expressly acknowledge may require the Borrowers to provide the Agent with material, non-public information concerning Events of Default), the Agent and each Lender shall not be deemed to have requested, and the Borrowers shall not provide to the Agent or any Lender, any material, non-public information relating to Borrowers, unless the Agent and each Lender specifically requests such information in writing. In the event that the Agent or any Lender requests that the Borrowers deliver any material, non-public information relating to the Borrowers, the Borrowers shall mark such information “confidential” prior to the delivery of such information to the Agent or such Lender. The Agent and each Lender shall keep such information confidential in accordance with the Agent’s or Lender’s customary practices and shall only use such information in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and not disclose any of such information other than (a) to the Agent’s or Lender’s employees, representatives, directors, attorneys, auditors, agents, professional advisors, trustees or Affiliates who are advised of the confidential nature of such information or to any direct or indirect contractual counterparty in swap agreements or such contractual counterparty’s professional advisor (so long as any of the foregoing persons agree to be bound by the provisions of this Section 10.13), (b) to the extent such information presently is or hereafter becomes available to the Agent or any Lender on a non-confidential basis from any source of such information that is in the public domain at the time of disclosure, (c) to the extent disclosure is required by law (including applicable securities law), regulation, subpoena or judicial order or process or requested or required by bank, securities, insurance or investment company regulators or auditors or any administrative body or commission to whose jurisdiction the Agent or such Lender may be subject (provided that notice of such requirement or order shall be promptly furnished to the Borrowers unless such notice is legally prohibited), (d) to any rating agency to the extent required in connection with any rating to be assigned to such Lender (provided that notice of such requirement shall be promptly furnished to the Borrowers), (e) to assignees or participants or prospective assignees or participants who agree to be bound by the provisions of this Section 10.13, (f) to the extent required in connection with any litigation between any Credit Party and the Agent or any Lender with respect to the Term Loans or this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or (g) with the Borrowers’ prior written consent. The Agent and each Lender is aware that, under certain circumstances, the United States securities laws may prohibit a Person who has received material, non-public information from an issuer from purchasing or selling securities of such issuer or from communicating such information to any other Person under circumstances in which it is reasonably foreseeable that such other person is likely to purchase or sell such securities.
