ARTICLE II
Credit Extensions
SECTION 2.01LOANS.
(a)Initial Term Loan.  
(i)Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender with a Term Loan Commitment agrees (severally, not jointly or jointly and severally) to make a term loan to Borrowers (collectively, the "Term Loan") on the Closing Date in an amount equal to such Lender's Term Loan Commitment; provided, that the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan made on the Closing Date shall equal the Term Loan Amount. The Term Loan made on the Closing Date shall be made pursuant to a Borrowing Request, duly completed and given by Administrative Borrower to Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m. (noon) on the second (2nd) Business Day prior to the Closing Date, or such shorter time as Administrative Agent may agree.
(ii)Loans and interest accruing thereon shall be evidenced by the records of Administrative Agent and the applicable Term Loan Lender. At the request of a Term Loan Lender, each Borrower shall deliver promissory note(s) to such Term Loan Lender, evidencing its Term Loans.
(iii)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.01(a), Lenders will not be required and shall have no obligation to make any advances hereunder if a Default or Event of Default then exists and is continuing or would result by virtue of the making thereof.  No Credit Extension (or any portion thereof) that has been repaid or prepaid may be reborrowed.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall Lenders be obligated to make to Borrowers, or Borrowers be entitled to borrow or receive from Lenders, any loans, advances or extensions of credit hereunder other than the Term Loan.
(iv)No later than 12:00 p.m. (noon) on the Closing Date, each Lender shall fund its pro rata portion of the Term Loan to Administrative Agent's Office in immediately available funds.  Upon receipt of all requested Term Loan funds, Administrative Agent will make the proceeds of the Term Loan available to Borrowers on the Closing Date by sending such funds, in immediately available funds, as directed by Borrowers pursuant to the Letter of Direction.
(v)If the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Term Loan exceeds the Term Loan Borrowing Base ("Term Loan Overadvance") at any time, the excess shall be payable by Borrowers promptly upon, and in any event within one Business Day of, demand by Administrative Agent and shall constitute an Obligation secured by the Collateral, entitled to all benefits of the Loan Documents.  Administrative Agent may require Term Lenders to forbear from requiring Borrowers to cure a Term Loan Overadvance without the consent of Required Term Lenders. No funding or sufferance of a Term Loan Overadvance shall constitute a waiver by Administrative Agent or applicable Term Lenders of the Event of Default caused thereby.  Term Loan Overadvances shall not include any Protective Advances made by the Term Loan Lenders.  No Loan Party shall be a beneficiary of this Section 2.01(a)(v) nor authorized to enforce any of its terms.

53


(b)Revolver Commitment.  
(i)Revolver Loans. Each Revolver Lender agrees, severally on a Pro Rata basis up to its Revolver Commitment, on the terms set forth herein, to make Revolver Loans to Borrowers from time to time through the Revolver Commitment Termination Date. The Revolver Loans may be repaid and reborrowed as provided herein. In no event shall Revolver Lenders have any obligation to honor a request for a Revolver Loan if Revolver Usage at such time plus the requested Loan would exceed the Revolver Borrowing Base. The Revolver Loans shall be made pursuant to a Borrowing Request, duly completed and given by Administrative Borrower to Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. on the requested funding date. If any Revolver Lender shall not remit the full amount that it is required to make available to Administrative Agent in immediately available funds as and when required hereby and if Administrative Agent has made available to Borrowers such amount, then that Revolver Lender shall be obligated to immediately remit such amount to Administrative Agent, together with interest at the Defaulting Lender Rate for each day until the date on which such amount is so remitted. Notices received by the Administrative Agent after the applicable required time shall be deemed received on the next Business Day. Each Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall specify (A) the Borrowing amount, and (B) the requested funding date (which must be a Business Day). Any amount required to be paid as interest hereunder, or as fees or other charges under this Agreement or any other Loan Document with respect to Revolver Obligations, which shall become due, shall be deemed a request for a Revolver Loan as of the date such payment is due, in the amount required to pay in full such interest, fee, charge or Revolver Obligation under this Agreement, or any other Loan Document and such request shall be irrevocable.
(ii)Notes. Loans and interest accruing thereon shall be evidenced by the records of Administrative Agent and the applicable Revolver Lender. At the request of a Revolver Lender, Borrowers shall deliver promissory note(s) to such Revolver Lender, evidencing its Revolver Loans.
(iii)Termination or Reduction of Revolver Commitments.
(A)The Revolver Commitments shall terminate on the Revolver Commitment Termination Date, unless sooner terminated in accordance with this Agreement. Upon at least five (5) days' prior written notice to Administrative Agent at any time, Borrowers may, subject to payment of the Make-Whole Amount, if applicable, at their option, terminate all or a portion of the Revolver Commitments provided, that any such partial reduction shall be in a principal amount of not less than $2,500,000, or an integral multiple of $250,000 in excess thereof.  Any notice of termination given by Administrative Borrower shall be irrevocable. On the Revolver Commitment Termination Date, Borrowers shall make Payment in Full of all Revolver Obligations (including any Make-Whole Amount, if applicable).  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Administrative Borrower may rescind any notice of prepayment under this Section 2.01(b)(iii) if such prepayment would have resulted from a refinancing of the Loans or other contingent transaction, which refinancing or transaction shall not be consummated or shall otherwise be delayed (in which case, a new notice shall be required to be sent in connection with any subsequent termination).
(iv)Revolver Overadvances. If Revolver Usage exceeds the Revolver Borrowing Base ("Revolver Overadvance") at any time, the excess shall be payable by Borrowers on demand by Administrative Agent and shall constitute an Obligation secured by the Collateral, entitled to all benefits of the Loan Documents. Administrative Agent may require Revolver Lenders

54


to fund Revolver Loans that cause or constitute an Revolver Overadvance and to forbear from requiring Borrowers to cure a Revolver Overadvance without the consent of Required Revolver Lenders. In no event shall Loans be required that would cause Revolver Usage to exceed the aggregate Revolver Commitments. No funding or sufferance of a Revolver Overadvance shall constitute a waiver by Administrative Agent or applicable Revolver Lenders of the Event of Default caused thereby. Revolver Overadvances shall not include any Protective Advances made by the Revolver Lenders nor shall Revolver Overadvances include the Permitted Overadvance.  No Loan Party shall be a beneficiary of this Section 2.01(b)(iv) nor authorized to enforce any of its terms.
(v)Maintenance of Loan Account; Statements of Account. Administrative Agent shall maintain an account on its books in the name of Borrowers (the "Loan Account") in which Borrower will be charged with all Revolver Loans made by Revolver Lenders to Borrowers or for Borrowers' account, including Revolver Loans, interest, fees, expenses and any other Revolver Obligations.  The Loan Account will be credited with all amounts received by Administrative Agent from Borrowers or for Borrowers' account, including, as set forth below, all amounts received in the Collection Accounts during a Cash Dominion Period.  Administrative Agent shall send Administrative Borrower a monthly statement reflecting the activity in the Loan Account.  Each such statement shall be an account stated and shall be final, conclusive and binding on Borrowers, absent manifest error.  Borrowers hereby authorize Administrative Agent to charge the Loan Account with the amount of all principal, interest, fees, expenses and other payments to be made hereunder and under the other Loan Documents with respect to Revolver Obligations.  Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, discharge Borrowers' payment obligations hereunder by so charging the Loan Account.
(vi)Collection of Receivables.  Subject to Schedule 6.19, Administrative Agent shall, at all times have springing dominion and control over the Collection Account and each other deposit account of any Loan Party (other than an Excluded Account), and the Collection Account and each such other deposit account shall be subject to a Control Agreement which shall provide, among other things, that upon notice by the Administrative Agent to the deposit account bank, all amounts in each such deposit account will be forwarded by daily sweep to Administrative Agent. At all times Borrowers shall cause all invoices evidencing accounts receivable to be marked payable to Borrowers at the Lockbox or if payments are made electronically, payable directly to a Collection Account.  All collections and other amounts received by the Loan Parties from any account debtor, in addition to all other cash received by the Loan Parties from any other source, shall upon receipt be forwarded to the Lockbox in the form received or deposited into a Collection Account.  During a Cash Dominion Period, Administrative Agent will credit all payments received by it to the Loan Account, conditional upon final collection; credit will be given only for cleared funds received prior to 2:00 p.m. (New York time) by Administrative Agent; provided, however, that for purposes of calculating interest due to the Revolver Lenders, credit will be given to collections on the date of receipt by Administrative Agent of cleared funds. In all cases, the Loan Account will be credited only with the net amounts actually received in payment of its accounts receivable.  The Loan Parties will not commingle any collections with any of their other funds or property, but will segregate them from their other assets and will hold them in trust and for the account and as the property of Revolver Lenders.  During a Cash Dominion Period, Borrowers hereby agree to, and will cause the other Loan Parties to, endorse any collections upon the request of Administrative Agent. During a Cash Dominion Period, or at any time that an Application Event has not occurred, Administrative Agent may apply all amounts received by it to such of the Revolver Obligations and in such order as it may elect in its sole and absolute discretion.  
(vii)[Reserved.]

55


(viii)Defaulting Lenders. Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to transfer to a Defaulting Lender any payments made by a Borrower to Administrative Agent for the Defaulting Lender's benefit or any proceeds of Collateral that would otherwise be remitted hereunder to the Defaulting Lender, and, in the absence of such transfer to the Defaulting Lender, Administrative Agent shall transfer any such payments (A) first, to Administrative Agent to the extent of any Protective Advances or Revolver Overadvances that were made by Administrative Agent and that were required to be, but were not, paid by Defaulting Lender, (B) second, to each Non-Defaulting Lender ratably in accordance with their Commitments (but, in each case, only to the extent that such Defaulting Lender's portion of a Revolver Loan (or other funding obligation) was funded by such other Non-Defaulting Lender), (C) third, in Administrative Agent's sole discretion, to a suspense account maintained by Administrative Agent, the proceeds of which shall be retained by Administrative Agent and may be made available to be re-advanced to or for the benefit of Borrowers (upon the request of a Borrower and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.02) as if such Defaulting Lender had made its portion of Revolver Loans (or other funding obligations) hereunder, and (D) fourth, from and after the date on which all other Obligations have been paid in full, to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 8.02(d).  Subject to the foregoing, Administrative Agent may hold and, in its discretion, re-lend to Borrowers for the account of such Defaulting Lender the amount of all such payments received and retained by Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender.  Solely for the purposes of voting or consenting to matters with respect to the Loan Documents and for the purpose of calculating the fee payable under Section 2.04(a), such Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not to be a "Lender" and such Lender's Commitment shall be deemed to be zero; provided, that the foregoing shall not apply to any of the matters governed by Section 10.01(i)(A) through (C).  The provisions of this Section 2.3(g) shall remain effective with respect to such Defaulting Lender until the earlier of (y) the date on which all of the Non-Defaulting Lenders, Agent, Issuing Bank, and Borrowers shall have waived, in writing, the application of this Section 2.01(b)(viii) to such Defaulting Lender, or (z) the date on which such Defaulting Lender makes payment of all amounts that it was obligated to fund hereunder, pays to Administrative Agent all amounts owing by Defaulting Lender in respect of the amounts that it was obligated to fund hereunder, and, if requested by Administrative Agent, provides adequate assurance of its ability to perform its future obligations hereunder.  The operation of this Section 2.01(b)(viii) shall not be construed to increase or otherwise affect the Commitment of any Lender, to relieve or excuse the performance by such Defaulting Lender or any other Lender of its duties and obligations hereunder, or to relieve or excuse the performance by a Borrower of its duties and obligations hereunder to any Agent or to the Lenders other than such Defaulting Lender.  Any failure by a Defaulting Lender to fund amounts that it was obligated to fund hereunder shall constitute a material breach by such Defaulting Lender of this Agreement and shall entitle each Borrower, at its option, upon written notice to Administrative Agent, to arrange for a substitute Lender to assume the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender, such substitute Lender to be reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent.  In connection with the arrangement of such a substitute Lender, the Defaulting Lender shall have no right to refuse to be replaced hereunder.  In the event of a direct conflict between the priority provisions of this Section 2.01(b)(viii) and any other provision contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, it is the intention of the parties hereto that such provisions be read together and construed, to the fullest extent possible, to be in concert with each other.  In the event of any actual, irreconcilable conflict that cannot be resolved as aforesaid, the terms and provisions of this Section 2.01(b)(viii) shall control and govern.
SECTION 2.02INTEREST.
(a)Interest.  Subject to the provisions hereof (including Sections 2.02(c) and 2.02(e)), the outstanding principal balance of each Loan shall bear interest from the date advanced until such Loan

56


is repaid in full at the Base Rate applicable to such Loan payable in cash.  If a Market Disruption Event occurs, then Administrative Agent shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, use commercially reasonable efforts to give notice thereof in accordance with Section 10.02 to Administrative Borrower and Lenders.
(b)Payment Dates.  Interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears, in cash, on each Interest Payment Date and at such other times as may be specified herein (including on demand if specified herein).  Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof both before and after judgment, and both before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law.  Subject to the provisions hereof, Borrowers shall pay accrued and unpaid interest under Section 2.02(a) to the Administrative Agent to which such interest relates, for the benefit of the Applicable Lenders, as follows: (i) on a monthly basis in arrears on each Interest Payment Date with respect to Revolver Loans and on a monthly basis in arrears on each Interest Payment Date with respect to Term Loans; (ii) upon payment or prepayment of the principal balance of the Loans or any portion thereof, on the amount so paid or prepaid; and (iii) on the Maturity Date.
(c)Default Rate.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 2.02(a), at any time that an Event of Default exists, then all (i) (or, in the sole discretion of Administrative Agent, any portion) of the Term Loan Obligations shall automatically bear interest at the applicable Default Rate, such interest to be payable in cash upon demand therefor by Administrative Agent and (ii) (or, in the sole discretion of Administrative Agent, any portion) of the Revolver Obligations shall automatically bear interest at the applicable Default Rate, such interest to be payable in cash upon demand therefor by Administrative Agent.
(d)Compounding.  Subject to the other provisions of this Section 2.02, without affecting any of the Agents' or any Lender's rights and remedies hereunder or in respect hereof, all interest (including interest at the Default Rate) on the Loans that is not paid when due shall, at the election of (i) in the case of the Revolver Obligations, the Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Revolver Lenders), be added to the outstanding principal balance thereof and thereafter bear interest at the rate then applicable to the outstanding principal balance of the Revolver Loans, or (ii) in the case of the Term Loan Obligations, the Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Term Loan Lenders), be added to the outstanding principal balance thereof and thereafter bear interest at the rate then applicable to the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loans.
(e)Inability to Determine Rates.  
(i)If, in connection with any request for a Loan based on the SOFR Index Rate, (A) Administrative Agent determines, that (x) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the SOFR Index Rate with respect to any such proposed or existing Loan, and (y) the circumstances described in clause (iii)(A) below do not apply (in each case with respect to this clause (i)(A), "Impacted Loans"), or (B) Administrative Agent determines, for any reason, that the SOFR Index Rate with respect to such a proposed Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of funding such Loan, Administrative Agent will promptly so notify Administrative Borrower and each Lender, in each case, in writing. Thereafter, (1) the obligation of Lenders to make or maintain Loans based on the SOFR Index Rate shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Loans), and (2) in the event of a determination described in the preceding sentence with respect to the SOFR Index Rate component of the Base Rate, the utilization of the SOFR Index Rate component in determining the Base Rate shall be suspended, in each case until such Agent revokes such notice in writing. Upon receipt of such notice, Administrative Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of Loans based on the SOFR Index Rate (to the extent of the affected Loans).

57


(ii)Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Administrative Agent has made the determination described in clause (i)(A) above, Administrative Agent, in consultation with Administrative Borrower, may establish an alternative interest rate for the Impacted Loans, in which case, such alternative rate of interest shall apply with respect to the Impacted Loans until (A) Administrative Agent revokes the notice delivered in writing with respect to the Impacted Loans under clause (i)(A) above, (B) Administrative Agent notifies Administrative Borrower in writing that such alternative interest rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of the Impacted Loans, or (C) any Lender determines that any law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to such alternative rate of interest, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon such rate or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to do any of the foregoing, and provides Administrative Agent, the other Lenders, and Administrative Borrower written notice thereof.
(iii)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, if the Required Revolver Lenders, the Required Term Loan Lenders or Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that:
A.adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the SOFR Index Rate, including, without limitation, because the SOFR Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary;
B.the administrator of the SOFR Screen Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over Administrative Agent or any Lender has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which SOFR or the SOFR Screen Rate shall no longer be made available, or used for determining the interest rate of loans (such specific date, the "Scheduled Unavailability Date"); or
C.syndicated loans currently being executed, or that include language similar to that contained in this Section 2.02(e), are being executed or amended (as applicable) to incorporate or adopt a new benchmark interest rate to replace SOFR;

then, reasonably promptly after such determination by Administrative Agent, Required Revolver Lenders or Required Term Loan Lenders, Administrative Agent, Required Lenders and Administrative Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace SOFR with an alternate benchmark rate (including any mathematical or other adjustments to the benchmark (if any) incorporated therein) (any such proposed rate, a "SOFR Successor Rate"), together with any proposed SOFR Successor Rate Conforming Changes, and any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5th) Business Day after Administrative Agent shall have notified all Lenders and Administrative Borrower of such proposed amendment unless Administrative Borrower or Required Lenders shall have objected thereto by written notice to Administrative Agent prior to such effective time. Such SOFR Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner consistent with market practice; provided, that, to the extent such market practice is not administratively feasible for Administrative Agent, such SOFR Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner as otherwise reasonably determined by Administrative Agent.

(iv)If no SOFR Successor Rate has been determined and either the circumstances under clause (iii)(A) above exist or the Scheduled Unavailability Date has occurred (as applicable), Administrative Agent will promptly so notify Administrative Borrower and each Lender in writing. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Loans based

58


in the SOFR Index Rate shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Loans), and (y) the SOFR Index Rate component shall no longer be utilized in determining the Base Rate. Upon receipt of such notice, Administrative Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of Loans based on the SOFR Index Rate (to the extent of the affected Loans).
(v)Notwithstanding anything else herein, any definition of SOFR Successor Rate shall provide that in no event shall such SOFR Successor Rate be less than the Floor for purposes of this Agreement.

(a)Payment on Maturity Date.  Borrowers shall repay in full (or Collateralize, as applicable) the Credit Outstandings and all other outstanding Obligations on the Maturity Date.
(b)Voluntary Prepayments.  Borrowers may voluntarily prepay the Outstanding Amount of the Loans, in whole or in part, upon not less than three (3) Business Days' prior irrevocable written notice by Administrative Borrower to the Administrative Agent (or such shorter period as the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, may otherwise agree); provided, that any prepayment of the Term Loans shall be in a principal amount of not less than $2,500,000, or an integral multiple of $250,000 in excess thereof (or, if less, the entire Outstanding Amount of the Term Loans).  In connection with any voluntary prepayment of the Term Loans, Borrowers shall pay the sum of: (i) the Outstanding Amount of the Term Loans being paid or prepaid; plus (ii) the Make-Whole Amount (if applicable); plus (iii) accrued and unpaid interest (at the rate then applicable to the applicable Term Loans being prepaid) on the amounts on the Outstanding Amount of the Loans being paid or prepaid.  All prepayments of the Term Loans shall be applied to the Outstanding Amount of the Term Loans.  In connection with any such voluntary prepayment of the Term Loans, each Borrower acknowledges that such prepayment may result in Lenders incurring additional costs, expenses or liabilities, and that, as of the date hereof, it is difficult to ascertain the full extent of such costs, expenses or liabilities.  Accordingly, each Borrower agrees that the Make-Whole Amount payable in connection with any such voluntary prepayment of the Term Loans, to the extent applicable, represents a reasonable estimate of the costs, expenses or liabilities of Lenders in connection with any such prepayment.  Without affecting any of any Lending Party's rights and remedies hereunder or in respect hereof, if a Borrower fails to pay the Make-Whole Amount (if applicable) when due, then the amount thereof shall thereafter bear interest until paid in full at the Default Rate.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Administrative Borrower may rescind any notice of prepayment under this Section 2.03(b) if such prepayment would have resulted from a refinancing of the Loans or other contingent transaction, which refinancing or transaction shall not be consummated or shall otherwise be delayed (in which case, a new notice shall be required to be sent in connection with any subsequent prepayment).  For the avoidance of doubt, no Make-Whole Amount or other prepayment premium or penalty shall be payable in connection with voluntary prepayments of Revolver Loans except to the extent accompanied by a corresponding reduction in Revolver Commitments.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no voluntary prepayments in respect of the Term Loans shall be permitted to be made under this clause (b) prior to the date that the Specified Prepayment has been made, and thereafter solely if the Payment Conditions are satisfied.
(c)Mandatory Prepayments.
(i)Loss and Disposition Payments.  In the event that Net Proceeds resulting from

59


(A)any Event of Loss or Disposition or series of Dispositions by Orion or any Subsidiary thereof (other than any Disposition pursuant to Sections 7.05(b), (c), (d), (f), (g), (i), (j), and (k)) and (i) such Net Proceeds (other than Net Proceeds of any Event of Loss) exceed, in the aggregate for all such Dispositions during the term of this Agreement, and taken together with (but without duplication) all of the Net Proceeds received from the Specified Sale Leaseback Transactions, $60,000,000 (the "Aggregate Loss and Disposition Threshold Amount") and (ii) such Net Proceeds within any Fiscal Year exceed, in the aggregate for all such Events of Loss and Dispositions in such Fiscal Year, $500,000 (the "Annual Loss and Disposition Threshold Amount" and, together with the Aggregate Loss and Disposition Threshold Amount, the "Loss and Disposition Threshold Amounts"), promptly upon, and in any event within five (5) Business Days of, receipt of such Net Proceeds, Borrowers shall prepay the Loans in an amount equal to the sum of: (1) 100% of such Net Proceeds that exceed both Loss and Disposition Threshold Amounts (in the case of the Annual Loss and Disposition Threshold Amount, in such Fiscal Year), plus (2) solely with respect to Net Proceeds resulting from Dispositions (or series of Dispositions) to the extent applied to prepay the Term Loans, the Make-Whole Amount, if applicable, that would apply if such Net Proceeds were used by Borrowers to make a voluntary prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.03(b).  Such repayments shall be applied (i) first, to repay Term Loans, until the Term Loan LTV Ratio, calculated on a Pro Forma Basis to give effect to such Disposition or Event of Loss, is less than or equal to 60%, (ii) second, to repay outstanding Revolver Loans so long as Liquidity is, or at any time during the immediately preceding 60 consecutive calendar day period was, less than $20,000,000, until Liquidity is equal to $20,000,000 and (iii) third, to repay Term Loans, until the Term Loan LTV Ratio, calculated on a Pro Forma Basis to give effect to such Disposition or Event of Loss, is less than or equal to 40%, and (iv) fourth, any then-remaining sums shall be paid to the Borrowers. So long as (u) the Term Loan LTV Ratio, calculated on a Pro Forma Basis to give effect to such Disposition or Event of Loss, is less than or equal to 60%, (v) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom, (w) Administrative Borrower shall have given Administrative Agent prior written notice (which shall include a description of the planned reinvestment and certification by Administrative Borrower that such plan is realizable within three hundred and sixty-five (365) days after the initial receipt of such monies) of the applicable Loan Parties' intention to apply such monies to the costs of replacement of the properties or assets that are the subject of such Disposition or Event of Loss or the cost of purchase or construction of other assets useful in the business of Loan Parties, (x) the monies are held in a Deposit Account in which Collateral Agent has a perfected first-priority Lien until applied in accordance with this proviso, (y) the Loan Parties complete such replacement, purchase, or construction within three hundred and sixty-five (365) days after the initial receipt of such monies, and (z) the aggregate amount of any planned reinvestments do not exceed when taken together with any other reinvestments made during such Fiscal Year, $2,500,000 in the aggregate in any Fiscal Year, then the Loan Party whose assets were the subject of such Disposition shall have the option to apply such monies to the costs of replacement of the assets that are the subject of such Disposition or Event of Loss or the costs of purchase or construction of other assets useful in the business of such Loan Party unless and to the extent that such applicable period shall have expired without such replacement, purchase, or construction being made or completed, in which case, any amounts remaining in the Deposit Account referred to in clause (y) above shall be paid to Agents and applied in accordance with this Section 2.03(c)(i)).  Nothing contained in this Section 2.03(c)(i) shall permit Loan Parties to sell or otherwise Dispose of any assets other than in accordance with Section 7.05.  In connection with any such prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.03(c)(i) requiring the payment of

60


the Make-Whole Amount, each Borrower acknowledges that such prepayment may result in Lenders incurring additional costs, expenses or liabilities, and that, as of the date hereof, it is difficult to ascertain the full extent of such costs, expenses or liabilities.  Accordingly, each Borrower agrees that any applicable Make-Whole Amount payable in connection with any such prepayment represents a reasonable estimate of the costs, expenses or liabilities of Lenders in connection with any such prepayment.  Without affecting any of any Lending Party's rights and remedies hereunder or in respect hereof, if a Borrower fails to pay the Make-Whole Amount when due, then the amount thereof shall thereafter bear interest until paid in full at the Default Rate.  The Administrative Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent a Borrowing Base Report to the extent the assets subject to the Event of Loss or Disposition giving rise to the mandatory prepayment had a value of $350,000 or more, either individually or in the aggregate (based on the fair market value, or in the case of Real Property, forced liquidation value, of the assets so disposed) and were included in the most recently delivered Borrowing Base Report.  For the avoidance of doubt no Make-Whole Amount or other prepayment premium or penalty shall be payable in connection with mandatory prepayments of Revolver Loans pursuant to this Section 2.03(c)(i).
(B)any Specified Post-Closing Liquidity Transaction or other Event of Loss, or any other issuance of any Equity Interest of Orion after the Closing Date, solely in the event the Term Loan LTV Ratio, calculated on a Pro Forma Basis to give effect to such Specified Post-Closing Liquidity Transaction, Event of Loss or issuance of Equity Interests, is greater than 60%, within five (5) Business Days of receipt of such Net Proceeds, Borrowers shall prepay the Term Loans in an amount equal to the amount of such Net Proceeds required to result in the Term Loan LTV Ratio, calculated on a Pro Forma Basis to give effect to such Specified Post-Closing Liquidity Transaction, Event of Loss or other issuance of Equity Interests, to be less than or equal to 60%.
(ii)[Reserved]
(iii)Payments in respect of Debt.  Within five (5) Business Days after the date of receipt by Loan Parties or their Subsidiaries of the Net Proceeds of any Debt incurred (other than Debt permitted under Section 7.03), Borrowers shall prepay the Loans in an amount equal to the sum of (A) the lesser of (1) 100% of such Net Proceeds received and (2) the Outstanding Amount of the Loans plus (B) to the extent that such Net Proceeds are applied to prepay the Term Loans, the Make-Whole Amount (if applicable) that would apply with respect to such prepayment if such Net Proceeds were used by a Borrower to make a voluntary prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.03(b).  In connection with any such prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.03(c)(iii) requiring the payment of the Make-Whole Amount, each Borrower acknowledges that such prepayment may result in Lenders incurring additional costs, expenses or liabilities, and that, as of the date hereof, it is difficult to ascertain the full extent of such costs, expenses or liabilities.  Accordingly, each Borrower agrees that the Make-Whole Amount payable in connection with any such prepayment represents a reasonable estimate of the costs, expenses or liabilities of Lenders in connection with any such prepayment.  Without affecting any of any Lending Party's rights and remedies hereunder or in respect hereof, if a Borrower fails to pay the Make-Whole Amount when due, then the amount thereof shall thereafter bear interest until paid in full at the Default Rate.  Such repayments shall be applied (w) first, to repay Term Loans, until the Term Loan LTV Ratio is less than or equal to 60%, (x) second, to repay outstanding Revolver Loans, so long as Liquidity is, or at any time during the immediately preceding 60 consecutive calendar day period was, less than $20,000,000, until Liquidity is equal to $20,000,000 (z) third, to repay Term Loans, until the Term Loan LTV Ratio is less than or equal to 40%, and (z)) then-remaining sums shall be paid to the Borrowers.  The provisions of this Section 2.03(c)(iii) shall not

61


be deemed to be implied consent to any incurrence of Debt otherwise prohibited by the terms of this Agreement.  For the avoidance of doubt no Make-Whole Amount or other prepayment premium or penalty shall be payable in connection with mandatory prepayments of Revolver Loans pursuant to this Section 2.03(c)(iii).
(iv)Curative Equity.  On the date of receipt by a Borrower of the proceeds of any Curative Equity pursuant to Section 8.03, such Borrower shall prepay an aggregate principal amount of the Loans in an amount equal to 100% of such proceeds of Curative Equity to be applied by Administrative Agent (x) first, to the outstanding Term Loans and (y) second, to the Revolver Loans.  For the avoidance of doubt, no Make-Whole Amount or other prepayment premium or penalty shall be due and owing in connection with mandatory prepayments of Revolver Loans pursuant to this Section 2.03(e)(iv).
(v)Overadvance.  If a Revolver Overadvance exists at any time, each Borrower shall, subject to Section 2.01(b)(iv), on the sooner of Administrative Agent's demand or the first Business Day after such Borrower has knowledge thereof, repay Revolver Loans and/or Collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit (or any combination thereof) in an amount sufficient to reduce Revolver Usage to the then current Revolver Borrowing Base.
(vi)Term Loan Overadvance.  If a Term Loan Overadvance exists at any time, each Borrower shall, subject to Section 2.01(a)(v), on the sooner of Administrative Agent's demand or the first Business Day after such Borrower has knowledge thereof, repay the Term Loans in an amount sufficient to reduce the Outstanding Amount of the Term Loan to the then current Term Loan Borrowing Base.
(vii)Specified Prepayment.  On or prior to the earlier of (i) the date that is 210 days from the Closing Date and (ii) the date that is three (3) Business Days after (and in any event, promptly) after receipt of Net Proceeds in respect of the East and West Jones Sale, the Borrowers shall make one or more mandatory prepayments of the Term Loans (collectively, the "Specified Prepayment") designated by Borrowers to be in respect of the prepayment required by this Section 2.03(c)(vii) (and not in respect of any other mandatory prepayment required by this Section 2.03(c)) in increments of not less than $1,000,000 for any Specified Prepayment, and in an aggregate amount for all Specified Prepayments equal to $15,000,000 (which shall not be subject to the payment of the Make-Whole Amount).  
(d)[Reserved.]
(e)Payments Under Certain Circumstances.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, upon the (i) prepayment of all or any part of the principal balance of the Term Loan pursuant to Section 2.03(b), (ii) prepayment of all or any part of the principal balance of the Term Loan pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i), (ii), (iii), (iv) or (vi), or (iii) any reduction or the termination of the Revolver Commitments, (iv) in the event of any payment of principal on the Revolver Loans made, required to be made or deemed to be made in connection with any repricing, refinancing or replacement of any Revolver Loans through any waiver, consent or amendment, in each case prior to the Revolver Commitment Termination Date, or (v) the acceleration of the Obligations or any portion thereof prior to the Maturity Date as a result of or upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, including in the event that the Obligations or any portion thereof are satisfied or released by foreclosure (whether by power of judicial proceeding), deed in lieu of foreclosure or by other similar means (each of clauses (i) through (v) referred to herein as a "Prepayment Event"; provided that the foregoing clauses (i) through (iv) shall only be deemed to be a Prepayment Event to the extent the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans and Revolving Commitments has been reduced to less than $55,000,000, then, in view of the impracticability and extreme

62


difficulty of ascertaining the actual amount of damages to the Lenders or profits lost by the Lenders as a result of such Prepayment Event, and by mutual agreement of the parties as to a reasonable estimation and calculation of the lost profits or damages of the Lenders, each Borrower agrees to pay to Administrative Agent, for the pro rata benefit of all of the Lenders entitled to a portion of the principal amount of the Term Loan subject to such Prepayment Event, and each Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the pro rata benefit of the Revolver Lenders entitled to a portion of the principal amount of the Revolver Loans subject to such Prepayment Event, in immediately available funds, measured as of the date of the occurrence of such Prepayment Event, the applicable Make-Whole Amount.  The Make-Whole payable in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence shall be presumed to be the liquidated damages sustained by each Lender as the result of the early termination, and each Borrower agrees that it is reasonable under the circumstances.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that, as set forth in clauses (iii), (iv) and (v) of the definition of "Prepayment Event", if the Revolver Commitments are reduced or terminated, if all or any portion of the Obligations are accelerated prior to the third anniversary of the Closing Date as a result of or upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Make-Whole Amount, determined as of the date of acceleration or the reduction or termination of the Revolver Commitments, as applicable, will also be due and payable as though said Obligations were voluntarily prepaid and the Revolver Commitments were terminated as of such date and shall constitute part of the Obligations.  The Make-Whole Amount shall also be payable in the event the Obligations are satisfied or released by foreclosure (whether by power of judicial proceeding), deed in lieu of foreclosure, or by any other similar means.  Each Borrower expressly agrees that: (A) the Make-Whole Amount is reasonable and is the product of an arm's length transaction between sophisticated parties, ably represented by counsel, (B) the Make-Whole Amount shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time payment is made, (C) there has been a course of conduct between Lenders and Borrowers giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay the Make-Whole Amount and (D) Borrowers shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this paragraph.  Each Borrower expressly acknowledges that its agreement to pay the Make-Whole Amount as herein described is a material inducement to the Lenders to provide the Commitment and make the Loans.  Without affecting any of any Lender's rights and remedies hereunder or in respect hereof, if a Borrower fails to pay the applicable Make-Whole Amount when due, then the amount thereof shall thereafter bear interest until paid in full at the Default Rate.
(f)[Reserved].
(g)Notice of Payments.  Borrower shall provide written notice of any payments made pursuant to Section 2.03(c) by 12:00 p.m. (noon) one (1) Business Day prior to the proposed prepayment date, which notice shall state pursuant to which paragraph of Section 2.03(c) or (d) the prepayment is being made.
SECTION 2.04CERTAIN FEES.
(a)Unused Line Fee.  Administrative Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of the Revolver Lenders, an unused line fee (the "Unused Line Fee") in an amount equal to 0.50% per annum times the result of (i) the aggregate amount of the Revolver Commitments, less (ii) the Revolver Usage during the immediately preceding month (or portion thereof), which Unused Line Fee shall be due and payable, in arrears, on the first day of each month from and after the Closing Date up to the first day of the month prior to the date on which the Obligations are paid in full and on the date on which the Obligations are paid in full.
(b)Fees Generally.  Without limiting any other provision set forth in this Agreement, Borrowers shall also pay to Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees in the amounts and at the times specified in the applicable Fee Letters.

63


(c)Letter of Credit Fees and Expenses.  Borrowers agree to pay to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Revolver Lenders, as compensation to such Lenders for Obligations in respect of Letters of Credit incurred hereunder, (i) all costs and expenses Administrative Agent or any Revolver Lender is required to reimburse any Issuing Bank in respect of any Letter of Credit and all other reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent or any Revolver Lender on account of such Letter of Credit Obligations, and (ii) for each month during which any Letter of Credit Obligation shall remain outstanding, a fee (the "Letter of Credit Fee") in an amount equal to (A) a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Margin in effect during such month applicable to Revolving Loans multiplied by (B) the maximum amount available from time to time to be drawn under the applicable Letter of Credit for the period of time such Letter of Credit is outstanding; provided, that no Letter of Credit Fee shall accrue for the benefit of a Defaulting Lender described in clauses (a) or (b) of the definition thereof so long as such Revolver Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender.  Such fee shall be paid to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Revolver Lenders, in arrears, on the last Business Day of each Fiscal Month.  In addition, Borrowers shall pay to any Issuing Bank, promptly, such customary reasonable fees (including all per annum fees and fronting fees), charges and out-of-pocket expenses of such Issuing Bank in respect of the issuance, negotiation, acceptance, amendment, transfer and payment of such Letter of Credit or otherwise payable pursuant to, and in accordance with, the application and related documentation under which such Letter of Credit is issued.
SECTION 2.05LETTERS OF CREDIT.
(a)Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and during the term of this Agreement, Administrative Agent, upon the request of Administrative Borrower, shall cause an Issuing Bank to issue for the account of any Borrower Letters of Credit of a tenor and containing terms acceptable to Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank, in a maximum aggregate face amount outstanding at any time not to exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit; provided that, (i) Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to cause to be issued any Letter of Credit with an expiration date after the Maturity Date or if after giving effect to the requested issuance Letter of Credit Usage would exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit and (ii) if a Letter of Credit is issued with an expiration date after the Maturity Date, Borrowers shall Collateralize such Letter of Credit in full immediately.  The term of any Letter of Credit shall not exceed three hundred sixty (360) days from the date of issuance, subject to renewal in accordance with the terms thereof, but in no event to a date beyond the Maturity Date.  All Letters of Credit shall be subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.03(c)(v), and a sum equal to the aggregate Letter of Credit Usage shall be included in calculating outstanding amounts for purposes of determining compliance with Section 2.03(c)(v).  Upon any Letter of Credit Disbursement, the amount of such Letter of Credit Disbursement for all purposes under this Agreement shall become and be deemed to be, without any further action on the part of any Person, a Revolver Loan made by Revolver Lenders on the date of such Letter of Credit Disbursement (but without any requirement for compliance with the conditions precedent to the making of Revolver Loans contained in this Agreement).
(b)Whenever Administrative Borrower desires the issuance of a Letter of Credit, Administrative Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent a written notice no later than 9:00 a.m. at least ten (10) Business Days in advance of the proposed date of issuance of a letter of credit request in a form reasonably agreed by Administrative Borrower and Administrative Agent (a "Letter of Credit Request").  The transmittal by Administrative Borrower of each Letter of Credit Request shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty by Borrowers that the Letter of Credit may be issued in accordance with and will not violate any of the requirements of this Section 2.05.  Prior to the date of issuance of each Letter of Credit, Administrative Borrower shall provide to Administrative Agent a precise description of the documents and the text of any certificate to be presented by the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit which, if presented by such beneficiary on or prior to the expiration date of such Letter of Credit, would require the issuing bank to make payment under such Letter of Credit.  Administrative Agent, in its reasonable

64


judgment, may require changes in any such documents and certificates.  No Letter of Credit shall require payment against a conforming draft to be made thereunder prior to the second Business Day after the date on which such draft is presented.
(c)Upon any Letter of Credit Disbursement, (i) Administrative Borrower shall be deemed to have timely given a Borrowing Request to Administrative Agent for a Revolver Loan on the date on which such drawing is honored in an amount equal to the amount of such Letter of Credit Disbursement and (ii) without regard to satisfaction of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.02 and the other terms and conditions of borrowings contained herein, Revolver Lenders shall, on the date of such drawing, make a Revolver Loan (in accordance with their Percentage Shares) in the amount of such Letter of Credit Disbursement, the proceeds of which shall be applied directly by Administrative Agent to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for the amount of such Letter of Credit Disbursement.
(d)By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment or extension of a Letter of Credit) and without any further action on the part of Issuing Bank or Revolver Lenders, Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have granted to each Revolver Lender, and each Revolver Lender shall be deemed to have purchased, a participation in each Letter of Credit issued by Issuing Bank, in an amount equal to its Percentage Share of such Letter of Credit, and each such Revolver Lender agrees to pay to Administrative Agent, for the account of Issuing Bank, such Revolver Lender's Percentage Share of any Letter of Credit Disbursement made by Issuing Bank under the applicable Letter of Credit.  In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolver Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to Administrative Agent, for the account of Issuing Bank, such Revolver Lender's Percentage Share of each Letter of Credit Disbursement made by Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by Borrowers in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, or of any reimbursement payment that is required to be refunded (or that Administrative Agent or Issuing Bank elects, based upon the advice of counsel, to refund) to Borrowers for any reason.  Each Revolver Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to deliver to Administrative Agent, for the account of Issuing Bank, an amount equal to its respective Percentage Share of each Letter of Credit Disbursement pursuant to this Section 2.05(d) shall be absolute and unconditional and such remittance shall be made notwithstanding the occurrence or continuation of an Event of Default or Default or the failure to satisfy any condition set forth in Section 4.  If any such Revolver Lender fails to make available to Administrative Agent the amount of such Revolver Lender's Percentage Share of a Letter of Credit Disbursement as provided in this Section, such Revolver Lender shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender and Administrative Agent (for the account of Issuing Bank) shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Revolver Lender together with interest thereon at the Base Rate until paid in full.
(e)As between Borrowers and any Lending Party, Borrowers assume all risks of the acts and omissions of such Lending Party and the applicable Issuing Bank (other than for the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Lending Party or such Issuing Bank) or misuse of the Letters of Credit by the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit.  In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, Lending Parties shall not be responsible (i) for the accuracy, genuineness or legal effects of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of or any drawing honored under such Letters of Credit even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged, (ii) for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any such Letter of Credit, or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason, (iii) for errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex, telecopy or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher, (iv) for errors in interpretation of technical terms, (v) for any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required to make a drawing under any such Letter of Credit, or of the proceeds thereof, (vi) for the misapplication by the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit, of the proceeds of any drawing honored under such Letter of Credit, and (vii) for any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the issuing bank or the

65


applicable Lender; provided that, the foregoing shall not release any Lending Party or the applicable Issuing Bank for any liability for its gross negligence or willful misconduct.  None of the above shall affect, impair, or prevent the vesting of any of Lending Parties' rights or powers hereunder.  Any action taken or omitted to be taken by any Lending Party under or in connection with any Letter of Credit, if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Lending Party, shall not create any liability of any Lending Party to Borrowers.
(f)The obligations of Borrowers to reimburse Administrative Agent and Revolver Lenders for drawings honored under the Letters of Credit shall be unconditional and irrevocable and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances including, without limitation, the following circumstances:  (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any Letter of Credit Agreement or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto; (ii) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which any Borrower or any Affiliate of any Borrower may have at any time against a beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Persons or entities for whom any such beneficiary or transferee may be acting), any Agent, any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the transactions contemplated herein or therein or any unrelated transaction; (iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other documents presented under any Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; (iv) the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms of any of the Loan Documents; (v) failure of any drawing under a Letter of Credit or any non-application or misapplication by the beneficiary of the proceeds of any drawing; or (vi) that a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.
SECTION 2.06MANNER OF PAYMENTS.
(a)Invoices.  Administrative Agent agrees to provide Administrative Borrower with an invoice setting forth the Outstanding Amount of the Loans and stating the amount of interest due on any Interest Payment Date in reasonable detail; provided that (i) no Agent shall have liability for failing to do so and (ii) any failure by any Agent to provide any such invoice shall not affect Administrative Borrower's (or any other Loan Party's) obligation to pay when due any amounts owing hereunder in accordance with the provisions hereof.
(b)Payments on Business Days.  If any payment hereunder becomes due and payable on a day (including an Interest Payment Date) that is not a Business Day, then such due date shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day; provided that interest and fees shall continue to accrue during the period of any such extension.
(c)Computations.  All interest and fees owing hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and calculated in each case for the actual number of days elapsed.
(d)Evidence of Debt.  The Credit Extensions made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business.  The accounts or records maintained by Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Credit Extensions made by Lenders to Borrowers and the interest and payments thereon.  Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of Borrowers hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations.  If any conflict exists between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.  Upon the request of any Lender, Borrowers shall execute and deliver to such Lender a Note, which shall evidence such Lender's Loans in

66


addition to such accounts or records.  Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note and endorse thereon the date, amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto.
SECTION 2.07INCREASED COSTS.
(a)Increased Costs Generally.  If any Change in Law shall:
(i)impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, 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;
(ii)subject any Lending Party to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes or (B) Excluded Taxes) on any Credit Extension made by it, its Commitment or other obligations; or
(iii)impose on any Lender any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement and the Loans made by such Lender;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lending Party of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan or to increase the cost to such Lending Party, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lending Party hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount), then, upon request of such Lending Party, Borrowers shall pay to such Lending Party such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lending Party for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b)Capital Requirements.  If any Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or such Lender's holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender's capital or on the capital of such Lender's holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Credit Extensions made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender's holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender's policies and the policies of such Lender's holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time Borrowers shall pay to such Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender's holding company for any such reduction suffered.
(c)Certificates for Reimbursement.  A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section 2.07, as well as the basis for determining such amount or amounts, and delivered to Administrative Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Administrative shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) Business Days after receipt thereof.
(d)Delay in Requests.  Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.07 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender's right to demand such compensation, provided that Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.07 for any reductions suffered more than nine (9) months prior to the date that such Lender notifies Administrative Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender'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 (9) month period referred to in this subsection (d) shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof)

67


(e)Survival.  All obligations of each Loan Party under this Section 2.07 shall survive termination of the Commitments and the payment in full of all other Obligations.
SECTION 2.08PAYMENTS FREE OF TAXES.
(a)Payments Free of Taxes.  Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Laws.  If any applicable Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Laws and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that, after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.08), the applicable Lending Party receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.
(b)Payment of Other Taxes.  Each Loan Party shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Laws, or, at the option of any Agent, timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.
(c)Indemnification by Loan Parties.  The Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify each Lending Party, within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to the amounts payable under this Section 2.08) payable or paid by such Lending Party or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Lending Party and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto (including reasonable attorneys' fees and tax advisors' fees and expenses), other than any penalties, interest and expenses resulting solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Lending Party (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and non-appealable judgment), 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 a Borrower by any such Lending Party (with a copy to Administrative Agent), or by any Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of such Lending Party, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(d)Indemnification by Lenders.  Each Lender hereby agrees to severally indemnify each Agent, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified such Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of any Loan Party to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender's failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.06(d) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by an Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such 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 any Lender by Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Each Lender hereby authorizes each 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 any Agent to such Lender from any other source against any amount due to such Agent under this Section 2.08(d).
(e)Evidence of Payments; Treatment of Payments.  As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.08, such Loan Party shall deliver to Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such

68


Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent.
(f)Status of Lending Parties.
(i)Any Lender which is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to Administrative Agent and Administrative Borrower, at the time or times reasonably requested by Administrative Agent or Administrative Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by any Agent or Administrative Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding Tax or at a reduced rate of withholding Tax.  In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by any Agent or Administrative Borrower, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Laws or reasonably requested by any Agent or Administrative Borrower as will enable Administrative Agent or Borrower to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.08(f)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D)) shall not be required if, in such Lender's reasonable judgment, such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.
(ii)Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:
(A)any Lender that is not a Foreign Lender shall deliver to Administrative Agent and Administrative Borrower on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Administrative Agent and Borrower), executed valid copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;
(B)any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Administrative Agent and Administrative Borrower (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Administrative Agent or Borrower), whichever of the following is applicable:
(1)in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (I) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed valid copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the "interest" article of such tax treaty and (II) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, executed valid copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the "business profits" or "other income" article of such tax treaty;
(2)executed valid copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;
(3)in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (I) a

69


certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a "bank" within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a "10 percent shareholder" of Borrowers within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a "controlled foreign corporation" described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a "U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate") and (II) executed valid copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E; or
(4)to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed valid copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-2 or Exhibit E-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that, if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;
(C)any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Agent and Administrative Borrower (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Administrative Agent or Borrower), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable Laws 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 Laws to permit Administrative Agent and Borrower to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and
(D)if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax 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 Administrative Agent and Administrative Borrower at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by v Agent or Administrative Borrower such documentation prescribed by applicable Laws (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by any Agent or Borrower as may be necessary for Administrative Agent or Borrower to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender's obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for purposes of this clause (D), "FATCA" shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
(iii)Administrative Agent and any successor Administrative Agent that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Administrative Borrower (in such number as shall be requested by the recipient) executed copies of the Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, or any subsequent versions or successors to such form, certifying that it is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding.  Administrative Agent and any successor Administrative Agent that is not a U.S. Person shall deliver to Administrative Borrower (in such number as shall be requested by the recipient) executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY certifying that it is a “U.S. branch” and that the payments are not effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States and that it is using such form as evidence of its agreement with the Loan Parties

70


to be treated as a U.S. Person with respect to such payments (and the Loan Parties and the Agent agree to so treat the Agent as a U.S. Person with respect to such payments as contemplated by Treasury Regulations Section 1.1441-1(b)(2)(iv)(A)).

Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify Agent and Administrative Borrower in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(g)Treatment of Certain Refunds.  If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.08 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.08), it shall, subject to Section 8.02, pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.08 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party incurred in obtaining such refund and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant 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 subsection (g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection (g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this subsection (g) 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 such Tax had never been paid.  This subsection (g) 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.
(h)Survival.  All obligations of each Loan Party under this Section 2.08 shall survive the resignation or replacement of an Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments, and the payment in full of all other Obligations.
SECTION 2.09SHARING OF PAYMENTS.

If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff, recoupment or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any Credit Outstandings or accrued and unpaid interest thereon resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a proportion of the Credit Outstandings or accrued and unpaid interest thereon greater than its Percentage Share (or other applicable share) thereof as provided herein, then such Lender receiving such greater proportion shall: (a) notify Administrative Agent of such fact; and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in that portion of the Credit Outstandings or accrued and unpaid interest thereon held by the other Applicable Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Percentage Shares thereof; 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; and (ii) the provisions of this Section 2.09 shall not be construed to apply to: (A) any payment made by a Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement; or (B) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any portion of the Credit Outstandings held by it to any assignee or participant, other than to any Loan Party (as to which the provisions of this Section 2.09 shall apply).

71


Each Loan Party consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable Laws, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may, except to the extent otherwise specified in such Lender's participation agreement, exercise against such Loan Party rights of setoff, recoupment and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Loan Party in the amount of such participation.

SECTION 2.10PAYMENTS GENERALLY.
(a)Payments Generally.  All payments to be made by any Loan Party hereunder shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff.  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by any Loan Party hereunder shall be made to Administrative Agent, for the account of Administrative Agent, the Lenders or such other parties to which such payment is owed, at such Agent's Office in Dollars and in immediately available funds not later than 11:00 a.m. on the date specified herein.  In the case of any payment for the account of the Lenders, Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its applicable Percentage Share (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender's Lending Office.  All payments received by Administrative Agent after 11:00 a.m. may, in such Agent's discretion, be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue.  
(b)Clawback Rights.
(i)Unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of the making of the Loans that such Lender will not make available to Administrative Agent such Lender's share thereof, such Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.01 and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to each Borrower a corresponding amount.  In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the Loans available to Administrative Agent, then the Applicable Lender, on the one hand, and each Borrower, on the other hand, each severally agrees to pay to such Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to such Borrower to the date of payment to such Agent, at: (A) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the Federal Funds Rate; and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by a Borrower, the interest rate applicable to the Loans.  If Borrowers and such Lender shall pay such interest to Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, such Agent shall promptly remit to the applicable Borrower the amount of such interest paid by such Borrower for such period.  If such Lender pays its share of the Loans to such Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender's Loans included within all Loans.  Any payment by a Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim such Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to such Agent.
(ii)Unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due hereunder to such Agent for the account of Lenders that such Borrower will not make such payment, such Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to Lenders the amount due.  In such event, if such Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each Lender severally agrees to repay to such Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to it to the date of payment to such Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate.  A notice of Administrative Agent to any Lender or a Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this subsection (b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

72


(c)Failure to Satisfy Conditions Precedent.  If any Lender makes available to Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available to Borrowers by such Agent because the conditions to the applicable Credit Extension set forth in Article IV are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, then such Agent shall promptly return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest.
(d)Obligations of Lenders Several.  The obligations of Lenders hereunder to make Loans and to make payments under Section 10.04(c) are several and not joint.  The failure of any Lender to make any Loans or to make any payment under Section 10.04(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loans or to make its payments under Section 10.04(c).
(e)Funding Sources.  Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.
SECTION 2.11MITIGATION OBLIGATIONS; REPLACEMENT OF LENDERS.
(a)Designation of a Different Lending Office.  If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.07, or requires the Loan Parties to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.08, then such Lender shall (at the request of the Loan Parties) use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.07 or 2.08, as the case may be, in the future, and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender.  The Loan Parties hereby agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.
(b)Replacement of Lenders.  If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.07, or if the Loan Parties are required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.08 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, or if any Lender is a Non-Consenting Lender, then the Loan Parties may, at their sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Agents, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 10.06), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 2.07 or Section 2.08) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that:
(i)the Loan Parties shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee (if any) specified in Section 10.06;
(ii)such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Loan Parties (in the case of all other amounts), together with the Make-Whole Amount with respect thereto;

73


(iii)in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.07 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.08, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;
(iv)such assignment does not conflict with applicable Law; and
(v)in the case of any assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent.

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

SECTION 2.12NATURE AND EXTENT OF LIABILITY.
(a)Joint and Several Liability.  Each Borrower agrees that it is jointly and severally liable for, and absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to the Secured Parties, all Obligations and all agreements under the Loan Documents.  Each Borrower agrees that its guaranty obligations under the Loan Documents constitute a continuing guaranty of payment and not of collection, that such obligations shall not be discharged until the Maturity Date, and that such obligations are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of (i) the genuineness, validity, regularity, enforceability, subordination or any future modification of, or change in, any Obligations or Loan Document, or any other document, instrument or agreement to which any Loan Party or Subsidiary thereof is or may become a party or be bound; (ii) the absence of any action to enforce this Agreement (including this Section) or any other Loan Document, or any waiver, consent or indulgence of any kind by any Agent or any Lender with respect thereto; (iii) the existence, value or condition of, or failure to perfect a Lien or to preserve rights against, any security or guaranty for the Obligations or any action, or the absence of any action, by any Agent or any Lender in respect thereof (including the release of any security or guaranty); (iv) the insolvency of any Loan Party or Subsidiary thereof; (v) any election by any Agent or any Lender in proceeding under Bankruptcy Laws for the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code or similar provisions under other Bankruptcy Laws; (vi) any borrowing or grant of a Lien by any other Loan Party or Subsidiary thereof, as debtor-in-possession under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or similar provisions under other Bankruptcy Laws, or otherwise; (vii) the disallowance of any claims of any Agent or any Lender against any Loan Party or Subsidiary thereof for the repayment of any Obligations under Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code, or similar provision under other Bankruptcy Laws, or otherwise; or (viii) any other action or circumstances that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor, except Payment in Full on the Maturity Date.
(b)Waivers.
(i)Each Borrower expressly waives all rights that it may have now or in the future under any statute, at common law, in equity or otherwise, to compel any Agent or Lenders to marshal assets or to proceed against any Loan Party, other Person or security for the payment or performance of any Obligations before, or as a condition to, proceeding against such Borrower.  Each Borrower waives all defenses available to a surety, guarantor or accommodation co-obligor other than Payment in Full.  It is agreed among each Loan Party and the Secured Parties that the provisions of this Section 2.12 are of the essence of the transaction contemplated by the Loan Documents and that, but for such provisions, the Secured Parties would decline to make Loans.  Each Borrower acknowledges that its guaranty pursuant to this Section is necessary to the conduct and promotion of its business, and can be expected to benefit such business.

74


(ii)The Secured Parties may, in their discretion, pursue such rights and remedies as they deem appropriate, including realization upon Collateral by judicial foreclosure or non-judicial sale or enforcement, without affecting any rights and remedies under this Section 2.12.  If, in taking any action in connection with the exercise of any rights or remedies, an Agent or any Lender shall forfeit any other rights or remedies, including the right to enter a deficiency judgment against any Loan Party or other Person, whether because of any applicable Laws pertaining to "election of remedies" or otherwise, each Borrower consents to such action and waives any claim of forfeiture of such rights or remedies based upon it, even if the action may result in loss of any rights of subrogation that such Borrower might otherwise have had.  Any election of remedies that results in denial or impairment of the right of an Agent or any Lender to seek a deficiency judgment against any Loan Party shall not impair any Borrower's obligation to pay the full amount of the Obligations.  Each Borrower waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies, such as nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to any security for the Obligations, even though that election of remedies destroys such Borrower's rights of subrogation against any other Person.  Each Agent may bid all or a portion of the Obligations at any foreclosure or trustee's sale or at any private sale, and the amount of such bid need not be paid by the Agent but shall be credited against the Obligations.  The amount of the successful bid at any such sale, whether an Agent or any other Person is the successful bidder, shall be conclusively deemed to be the fair market value of the Collateral, and the difference between such bid amount and the remaining balance of the Obligations shall be conclusively deemed to be the amount of the Obligations guaranteed under this Section 2.12, notwithstanding that any present or future law or court decision may have the effect of reducing the amount of any deficiency claim to which any Agent or any Lender might otherwise be entitled but for such bidding at any such sale.
(c)Extent of Liability; Contribution.
(i)Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each Borrower's liability under this Section 2.12 shall be limited to the greater of (i) all amounts for which such Borrower is primarily liable, as described below, and (ii) such Borrower's Allocable Amount.
(ii)If any Borrower makes a payment under this Section 2.12 of any Obligations (other than amounts for which such Borrower is primarily liable) (a "Guarantor Payment") that, taking into account all other Guarantor Payments previously or concurrently made by any other Borrower, exceeds the amount that such Borrower would otherwise have paid if each Borrower had paid the aggregate Obligations satisfied by such Guarantor Payments in the same proportion that such Borrower's Allocable Amount bore to the total Allocable Amounts of all Borrowers, then such Borrower shall be entitled to receive contribution and indemnification payments from, and to be reimbursed by, each other Borrower for the amount of such excess, pro rata based upon their respective Allocable Amounts in effect immediately prior to such Guarantor Payment.  The "Allocable Amount" for any Borrower shall be the maximum amount that could then be recovered from such Borrower under this Section 2.12 without rendering such payment voidable under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state fraudulent transfer or conveyance act, or similar statute or common law.
(d)Direct Liability.  Nothing contained in this Section 2.12 shall limit the liability of any Borrower to pay Loans made directly or indirectly to that Borrower (including Loans advanced to any other Borrower and then re-loaned or otherwise transferred to, or for the benefit of, such Borrower), and all accrued interest, fees, expenses and other related Obligations with respect thereto, for which such Borrower shall be primarily liable for all purposes hereunder.

75


(e)Joint Enterprise.  Each Loan Party has requested that the Secured Parties make this credit facility available to Borrowers on a combined basis, in order to finance Borrowers' business most efficiently and economically.  The Loan Parties' business is a mutual and collective enterprise, and the successful operation of each Loan Party is dependent upon the successful performance of the integrated group.  The Loan Parties believe that consolidation of their credit facility will enhance the borrowing power of each Loan Party and ease administration of the Facility, all to their mutual advantage.  The Loan Parties acknowledge that the Secured Parties' willingness to extend credit and to administer the Collateral on a combined basis hereunder is done solely as an accommodation to Loan Parties and at Loan Parties' request.
(f)Subordination.  Each Loan Party hereby subordinates any claims, including any rights at law or in equity to payment, subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification or set off, that it may have at any time against any other Loan Party, howsoever arising, to the Payment in Full on the Maturity Date.
(g)Administrative Borrower. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Orion as the borrowing agent and attorney-in-fact for all Loan Parties (the "Administrative Borrower"), which appointment shall remain in full force and effect unless and until Administrative Agent shall have received prior written notice signed by each Borrower that such appointment has been revoked and that another Borrower has been appointed Administrative Borrower. Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Borrower (a) to provide Administrative Agent with all notices with respect to Term Loans and Revolver Loans for the benefit of any Loan Party and all other notices and instructions under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (and any notice or instruction provided by the Administrative Borrower shall be deemed to be given by the Loan Parties hereunder and shall bind each Loan Party), (b) to receive notices and instructions from the Lending Parties (and any notice or instruction provided by any Lending Party to the Administrative Borrower in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been given to each Loan Party), (c) entering into any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any consent to any departure by such Loan Party therefrom, on each Loan Party's behalf, and (d) to take such action as the Administrative Borrower deems appropriate on its behalf to obtain Loans and to exercise such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto to carry out the purposes of this Agreement. It is understood that the handling of the Loans and the Collateral and the administration of the Loan Documents in a combined fashion, as more fully set forth herein, is done solely as an accommodation to the Loan Parties in order to utilize the collective borrowing powers of Borrowers in the most efficient and economical manner and at their request, and that the Agents shall not incur liability to any Loan Party as a result hereof. Each Loan Party expects to derive benefit, directly or indirectly, from the handling of the Loans and the Collateral in a combined fashion since the successful operation of each Loan Party is dependent on the continued successful performance of the integrated group. To induce Administrative Agent and the Lenders to do so, and in consideration thereof, each Loan Party hereby jointly and severally agrees to indemnify each Agent and the Lenders and hold them harmless against any and all liability, expense, loss or claim of damage or injury, made against an Agent by any Loan Party or by any third party whosoever, arising from or incurred by reason of (i) the handling of the Loans and the Collateral and the administration of the Loan Documents of the Loan Parties as herein provided or (ii) the Agents and the Lenders relying on any instructions of the Administrative Borrower.

Each Agent will use good faith commercially reasonable efforts (with no liability for failing to do so) to provide Borrowers with notice of such Agent or Lenders obtaining any insurance on behalf of Administrative Borrower or any other Loan Party at the time it is obtained or within a reasonable time thereafter.  The making of any Protective Advances shall not be or be deemed to be an agreement to make Protective Advances in similar or different circumstances in the future and shall not operate or be deemed to operate as a waiver by any Agent or any Lender of any Event of Default.
(d)Application of Funds.
(i)No Loan Party shall have the right to specify the order or the accounts to which Administrative Agent shall allocate or apply any payments required to be made by any Loan Party to Administrative Agent on behalf of Term Loan Lenders or otherwise received by Administrative Agent on behalf of Term Loan Lenders under this Agreement when any such allocation or application is not specified elsewhere in this Agreement.

120


Administrative Agent on behalf of Revolver Lenders under this Agreement when any such allocation or application is not specified elsewhere in this Agreement.
(iv)Following an Application Event, all payments or prepayments to Administrative Agent or any Revolver Lender on account of the Revolver Obligations shall be applied by Administrative Agent until exhausted in the following order:

121


After payment in full of all Obligations (other than Unasserted Obligations), any surplus remaining shall be paid to Borrowers or other Persons legally entitled thereto; if any deficiency exists, Borrowers shall remain liable to the Agents and Lenders for such deficiency.  If any Agent or any Lender, in its good faith business judgment, directly or indirectly enters into a deferred payment or other credit transaction with any purchaser at any sale of any collateral (including the Collateral), such Agent or such Lender, as applicable, shall have the option, exercisable at any time, of either reducing the applicable Obligations by the principal amount of the purchase price or deferring the reduction of the applicable Obligations until the actual receipt by such Agent or such Lender of cash therefor.

(e)Cash Collateralization.  With respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding at the time of the acceleration of the Obligations under Section 8.02(a) or otherwise at any time after the Maturity Date, Borrowers shall at such time deposit in a cash collateral account established by or on behalf of Administrative Agent an amount equal to 105% of the aggregate Letter of Credit Usage.  Amounts held in such cash collateral account shall be under the sole dominion and control of Administrative Agent and applied by Administrative Agent to the payment of drafts drawn under such Letters of Credit, and the balance, if any, in such cash collateral account, after all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon shall be applied to repay the other Obligations.  After all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon and all Obligations shall have been satisfied, the balance, if any, in such cash collateral account shall be returned to Borrowers or to such other Person as may be lawfully entitled thereto.  If Borrowers fail to provide Collateralization as required by this Section 8.02(e), Revolver Lenders may (and, upon direction of Administrative Agent, shall) advance, as Revolver Loans the amount of the cash collateral required pursuant to the definition of Collateralization so that the then existing Letter of Credit Usage is cash collateralized in accordance with the definition of Collateralization (whether or not the Commitments have terminated, an Overadvance exists or the conditions in Section 4.02 are satisfied).
(f)Agent's Liability for Collateral.  So long as the Agents and Lenders comply with reasonable banking practices regarding the safekeeping of any collateral the subject of the Collateral Documents, the Agents and Lenders shall not be liable or responsible for: (i) the safekeeping of all or any such collateral; (ii) any loss or damage to all or any such collateral; (iii) any diminution in the value of all or any such collateral; or (iv) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, or other Person.  The Loan Parties bear all risk of loss, damage or destruction of any collateral the subject of the Collateral Documents.
(g)No Waiver.  Any Agent's or any Lender's failure, at any time or times, to require strict performance by any Loan Party of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall not waive, affect, or diminish any right of such Agent or such Lender thereafter to demand strict performance and compliance herewith or therewith.  Each Agent and Lenders have all rights and remedies provided under the UCC, by law, or in equity.  Any amounts paid by any Agent or any Lender on any Loan Party's behalf as provided herein are expenses reimbursable under Section 10.04 and shall bear interest at the highest interest rate then applicable to any of the Obligations and shall be secured by the collateral the subject of the Collateral Documents.  No payments by any Agent or any Lender shall be deemed an agreement to make similar payments in the future or a waiver of any Event of Default by any Agent or any Lender.
(h)Right to Appoint Receiver.  Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and at all times thereafter during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Agent shall be entitled to the immediate appointment of a receiver for all or any part of the Collateral, whether or not waste or deterioration of the Collateral has occurred; whether or not there is a risk that the Collateral is in danger of being lost, removed, or materially injured; and whether or not other arguments based on equity or pursuant to statute would justify the appointment.  Each Agent and the Loan Parties agree and consent that said receiver shall be directed to manage, protect, preserve, sell and otherwise dispose of all or any portion of the Collateral and

122


continue the operation of the business of the Loan Parties, and to collect all revenues and profits thereof and apply the same to the payment of all expenses and other charges of such receivership, including the compensation of the receiver, and to the payment of the Loans and other fees and expenses due hereunder and under the Loan Documents as aforesaid until a sale or other disposition of such Collateral shall be finally made and consummated. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH LOAN PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND FOR VALUABLE CONSIDERATION CONSENTS TO AND WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO OBJECT TO OR OTHERWISE CONTEST THE APPOINTMENT OF A RECEIVER AS PROVIDED ABOVE. EACH LOAN PARTY (I) GRANTS SUCH WAIVER AND CONSENT KNOWINGLY AFTER HAVING DISCUSSED THE IMPLICATIONS THEREOF WITH COUNSEL, (II) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (A) THE UNCONTESTED RIGHT TO HAVE A RECEIVER APPOINTED FOR THE FOREGOING PURPOSES IS CONSIDERED ESSENTIAL BY EACH AGENT IN CONNECTION WITH THE ENFORCEMENT OF THE LENDERS' AND AGENTS' RIGHTS AND REMEDIES HEREUNDER AND UNDER THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, AND (B) THE AVAILABILITY OF SUCH APPOINTMENT AS A REMEDY UNDER THE FOREGOING CIRCUMSTANCES WAS A MATERIAL FACTOR IN INDUCING THE LENDERS TO MAKE THE LOANS TO BORROWERS; AND (III) AGREES TO ENTER INTO ANY AND ALL STIPULATIONS IN ANY LEGAL ACTIONS, OR AGREEMENTS OR OTHER INSTRUMENTS IN CONNECTION WITH THE FOREGOING AND TO COOPERATE FULLY WITH EACH AGENT AND THE LENDERS IN CONNECTION WITH THE ASSUMPTION AND EXERCISE OF CONTROL BY THE RECEIVER OVER ALL OR ANY PORTION OF THE COLLATERAL.
(i)Remedies Cumulative. The rights and remedies of the Agents and the Lenders under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and all other agreements shall be cumulative. In addition to the other rights and remedies set forth in this Agreement or in any other Loan Documents, the Agents and the Lenders shall have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as provided under the UCC, by law, or in equity. No exercise by an Agent or any Lender of one right or remedy shall be deemed an election, and no waiver by any Agent or any Lender of any Default or Event of Default shall be deemed a continuing waiver. No delay by any Agent or any Lender shall constitute a waiver, election, or acquiescence by it.
SECTION 8.03EQUITY CURE.
(a)Subject to the limitations set forth in clauses (e) and (f) below, Borrowers may cure an Event of Default arising solely out of a breach of any of the financial covenants set forth in Sections 6.13(a) and (d) (the "Specified Financial Covenants") if a Borrower (A) provides notice to Administrative Agent within two (2) days' after the date that is the earlier to occur of (i) the date on which the Compliance Certificate is delivered to Administrative Agent in respect of the applicable Test Period with respect to which any such breach occurred, and (ii) the date on which the Compliance Certificate is required to be delivered to Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 6.02(a) in respect of the applicable Test Period with respect to which any such breach occurred and (B) receives Curative Equity within ten (10) days in the case of the financial covenants set forth in Section 6.13(a), after the date that is the earlier to occur of (i) the date on which the Compliance Certificate is delivered to Administrative Agent in respect of the applicable Test Period with respect to which any such breach occurred, and (ii) the date on which the Compliance Certificate is required to be delivered to Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 6.02(a) in respect of the applicable Test Period with respect to which any such breach occurred; provided, that Borrowers' right to so cure an Event of Default shall be contingent on its timely delivery of such Compliance Certificate as required under Section 6.02(a).  
(b)Each Borrower shall promptly notify Administrative Agent of its receipt of any proceeds of Curative Equity (and shall immediately apply the same to the payment of the Obligations to the extent required by Section 2.03(c)(iv)).

123


(c)Any investment of Curative Equity shall be in immediately available funds and, subject to the limitations set forth in clause (e) below, shall be in an amount that is sufficient to cause the applicable Borrower to be in compliance with the Specified Financial Covenants as at the end of the applicable Test Period (but not greater than such amount), calculated for such purpose as if such amount of Curative Equity were additional Consolidated EBITDA for the last Fiscal Quarter in such Test Period (such Fiscal Quarter, the "Designated Fiscal Quarter").  Contemporaneously with the receipt and application of Curative Equity, such Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent an updated Compliance Certificate that shall (i) include evidence of such Borrower's receipt of Curative Equity proceeds, and (ii) to cure the financial covenants in Section 6.13(a), set forth a calculation of the financial results and balance sheet of such Borrower as at the end of the applicable Test Period (including for such purposes the proceeds of such Curative Equity (broken out separately) as deemed Consolidated EBITDA for the Designated Fiscal Quarter), which shall confirm that on a pro forma basis after taking into account the receipt of such Curative Equity proceeds, such Borrower would have been in compliance with the Specified Financial Covenants in Sections 6.13(a) as of such date.  
(d)Upon (i) the receipt of Curative Equity pursuant to this Section 8.03 and inclusion of such Curative Equity in the calculation of the Specified Financial Covenants in Sections 6.13(a) as deemed Consolidated EBITDA for any Test Period including the applicable Designated Fiscal Quarter, and (ii) delivery of an updated Compliance Certificate conforming to the requirements of this Section 8.03, any Event of Default that occurred and is continuing as a result of a breach of any of the Specified Financial Covenants shall be deemed cured with no further action required by any Lenders.  In the event a Borrower does not cure all financial covenant violations, the existing Event(s) of Default shall continue unless waived in writing by in accordance with Section 10.01 hereof.
(e)From and after the receipt by Administrative Agent of a written notice from a Borrower (a "Notice of Intent to Cure"), on or prior to the date which is two (2) days after the date on which the Compliance Certificate is required to be delivered to Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 6.02(a) in respect of the Test Period with respect to which the Curative Equity is to be invested, that Orion's existing equityholders intend to invest Curative Equity in such Borrower with respect to a particular Test Period until the expiration of the tenth (10th) day after the date that is the earlier to occur of (i) the date on which the Compliance Certificate is delivered to Administrative Agent in respect of the applicable Test Period with respect to which any such breach occurred, and (ii) the date on which the Compliance Certificate is required to be delivered to Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 6.02(a) in respect of the applicable Test Period with respect to which any such breach occurred; provided, that such Borrower's right to so cure an Event of Default shall be contingent on its timely delivery of such Compliance Certificate as required under Section 6.02(a) and to the extent no Event of Default exists (other than an Event of Default arising solely out of a breach of the Specified Financial Covenants), neither Agent nor any Lender shall exercise any right under Section 8.02 solely on the basis of an Event of Default having occurred and being continuing in respect of a failure to comply with the requirements of Section 6.13; provided that such written notice shall be irrevocable upon receipt by Administrative Agent; provided, further, during such period (until the Curative Equity has been received by such Borrower and has been used to prepay the Loans to the extent provided in this Agreement), an Event of Default in respect of such failure to comply shall continue to exist for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including for the purposes of Section 4.02 hereof).  
(f)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the foregoing or this Agreement, (i) a Borrower's rights under this Section 8.03 may (A) be exercised not more than three (3) times during the term of this Agreement and (B) not be exercised more in more than two consecutive Fiscal Quarters, (ii) the amount of any Curative Equity in any Fiscal Quarter shall be no greater than the amount required to cause such Borrower to be in compliance with the Specified Financial Covenants as at the end of the applicable Test Period ending as of the last day of such Fiscal Quarter, and (iii) the Curative Equity

124


shall be disregarded for purposes of determining Consolidated EBITDA for any pricing, financial covenant-based conditions or any baskets with respect to the covenants contained in this Agreement and for all other purposes under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (other than determining compliance with the Specified Financial Covenants) and there shall be no pro forma reduction in Debt with the proceeds of any Equity Cure for determining compliance with the Specified Financial Covenants or for determining any pricing, financial covenant-based conditions or baskets with respect to the covenants contained in this Agreement or for any other purposes under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (other than determining compliance with the Specified Financial Covenants), in each case in the Fiscal Quarter in which such Curative Equity is received.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the term "agent" or "security trustee" in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents with reference to Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. The provisions of this Article IX are solely for the benefit of Lending Parties, and neither Borrowers nor any other Loan Party shall have rights as a third-party beneficiary of any of such provisions.

SECTION 9.02RIGHTS AS A LENDER.

If the Person serving as an Agent hereunder is also a Lender, such Person shall have the same rights and powers in such capacity(ies) as any other Person in such capacity(ies) and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent.  Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for, make equity investments in, and generally engage in any kind of business with any Loan Party or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of any Loan Party as if such Person were not an Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to any other Lending Party.

SECTION 9.04RELIANCE BY THE AGENTS.

Each 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 (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person.  Each Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon.  In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of the Loans that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a specified Lending Party, each Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lending Party, unless such Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lending Party prior to the making of the Loans.  Each Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for any Loan Party), independent accountants and other experts it selects and shall not be liable for any action it takes or does not take in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

No Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of

126


any sub-agents, except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final, non-appealable judgment that an Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.

SECTION 9.06RESIGNATION OF THE AGENTS.

Each Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to Lending Parties and Administrative Borrower.  Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with, unless an Event of Default exists, the consent of Administrative Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), to appoint a successor.  If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) on behalf of Lending Parties, with, unless an Event of Default exists, the consent of Administrative Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), appoint a successor Agent meeting the qualifications set forth in this Section 9.06; provided that, if such Agent shall notify Lending Parties and Administrative Borrower that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (a) the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any Collateral held by any Agent on behalf of any Lending Party under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Agent shall continue to hold such Collateral until such time as a successor Agent is appointed) and (b) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through such Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lending Party directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided for in this Section 9.06.  Upon the acceptance of a successor's appointment as an Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments and expense reimbursement owed to the retiring Agent), and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided in this Section 9.06).  The fees payable by Borrowers to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between such Borrower and such successor.  After the retiring Agent's resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article IX and Section 10.04 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 the retiring Agent was acting as Agent.

SECTION 9.07NON-RELIANCE ON AGENT AND OTHER LENDERS.

Each Lending Party acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent, any other Lending Party or any of their Related Parties 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 Lending Party also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent, any other Lending Party or any of their Related Parties 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, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

(c)No Obligations Regarding Certain Actions.  The Agents shall have no obligation whatsoever to any Lending Party or any other Person to assure that all or any of the collateral the subject of the Collateral Documents exists or is owned by a Borrower or any other Loan Party or is cared for, protected or insured or that the Liens granted to any Agent herein or in any of the Collateral Documents or pursuant hereto or thereto have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise or to continue exercising at all or in any manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to each Agent in this Section 9.11 or in any of the Collateral Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the collateral the subject of the Collateral Documents, or any act, omission or event related thereto, each Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion, if such Agent has an interest in the collateral the subject of the Collateral Documents by virtue of being one of the Lending Parties.

SECTION 10.05MARSHALLING; PAYMENTS SET ASIDE.

Neither Agent nor any other Lending Party shall be under any obligation to marshal any asset in favor of any Loan Party or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations.  To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of any Loan Party is made to any Agent or any other Lending Party, or any Agent or any other Lending Party exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by any Agent or any other Lending Party in such Person's discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law or otherwise, then: (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred; and (b) each Lending Party severally agrees to pay to each Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by such Agent plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate.  The obligations of each Lending Party under clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

(A)any consent required by Section 10.06(b)(i)(B);

140


Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (d) of this Section 10.06.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents: (A) no Lender shall be required to comply with this Section 10.06(b) in connection with any assignment of all or any portion of its rights and other obligations under or relating to the Loans, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to any Affiliate of such Lender (other than any Loan Party, any Affiliate thereof or a natural person) or any Approved Fund related to such Lender, and such Lender shall have no obligation to disclose any such assignment to any such Person; provided that such Lender shall continue to be liable as a "Lender" under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents until such time, if at all, that such Lender and such other Person have complied with the provisions of this Section 10.06(b) in order for such other Person to become a "Lender" hereunder; (B) a Lender may pledge, or grant a security interest in, all or any portion of its rights and other obligations under or relating to the Loans, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to a financial institution or other funding source (other than any Loan Party, any Affiliate thereof or any natural person) or any trustee or agent therefor in support of obligations owing by such Lender to such Person(s); (C) any Lender which is a fund may pledge, or grant a security interest in, all or any portion of its rights and other obligations under or relating to the Loans, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to its trustee (except if such trustee is any Loan Party, any Affiliate thereof or a natural person) in support of its obligation to its trustee; and (D) no pledge or grant of a security interest pursuant to the immediately preceding clauses (A) or (C) shall release the transferor Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents and such Lender such Lender shall continue to be liable as a "Lender" under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents until such time, if at all, that such Lender and such other Person have complied with the provisions of this Section 10.06(b) in order for such other Person to become a "Lender" hereunder.

(c)Register.  Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of each Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a Register.  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and each Borrower and Lending Parties 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.  The Register shall be available for inspection by any Borrower and each Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior written notice. It is intended that the Register and any Participant Register (as defined below) be maintained such that the Loans are in "registered form" for the purposes of the Code.
(d)Participations.  Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, any Borrower or any Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural Person, any Loan Party or any Loan Party's Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a "Participant") in all or a portion of such Lender's rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and/or the 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) each Borrower, Administrative Agent and Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement.  For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 2.08(d) with respect to any payments made by such Lender to its Participant(s).

Any document pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided that such document may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 10.01 that affects such Participant.  Each Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of

141


Section 2.07 and Section 2.08, (subject to the requirements and limitations therein) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.08(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender who shall hold such documentation for its behalf and on behalf of Borrowers and Agents)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 10.06(b); provided that such Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.07 or Section 2.08, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive.  To the extent permitted by applicable Laws, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.08 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.09 as though it were a Lender.  Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of a Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts of (and stated interest on) each Participant's interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the "Participant Register"); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant's interest in any commitments, loans or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan or other obligation is in registered form for the purposes of the Code.  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.  For the avoidance of doubt, neither Agent (in its capacity as an Agent) shall have any responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(e)Certain Pledges.  Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender owing to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.
(f)Electronic Execution of Assignments.  The words "execution," "signed," "signature," and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable Law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.
SECTION 10.07TREATMENT OF CERTAIN INFORMATION; CONFIDENTIALITY.

Each Agent and each other Lending Party (on behalf of itself and its Related Parties) each agrees to treat the Information in a confidential manner and to not disclose the Information to Persons not party to this Agreement (or Affiliates thereof), except that Information may be disclosed (including by means of the Electronic Platform): (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates' respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors, representatives and funding and financing sources (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and agree to keep such Information confidential on the same terms as provided herein); (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority, purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners); provided that each Agent or such Lender, as applicable, will use commercially reasonable efforts to give Administrative Borrower advance notice of such disclosure (to the extent not prohibited and reasonably possible); provided further that no such advance notice shall be required to be delivered with respect to any routine audit or examination conducted by any banking authority, auditor, or any governmental agency or other authority exercising examination or regulatory authority over any Agent or any Lender which such examination is not directly

142


focused on a Borrower, Guarantor or any of their Subsidiaries; (c) to the extent required by applicable Laws or by any subpoena or similar legal process (in which case the Agents or Lenders, as applicable, shall notify the Borrowers to the extent practicable and to the extent permitted by applicable Laws); (d) to any other party hereto; (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder; (f) to "Gold Sheets" or other similar bank trade publications announcements; provided that such information consist solely of deal terms and other information customarily found in such publications; (g) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 10.07 to: (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement; or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction or credit insurance relating to any Loan Party; (h) with the consent of each Borrower; or (i) to the extent such Information: (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.07; or (ii) becomes available to any Agent, any Lending Party or any of their respective Affiliates on a non-confidential basis from a source other any Loan Party and not in contravention of this Section 10.07.  For purposes of this Section 10.07, "Information" means all material non-public information (including financial information) received from any Loan Party relating to such Loan Party or its business, other than any such information that is available to any Agent or any other Lending Party on a non-confidential basis, and not in contravention of this Section 10.07, prior to disclosure by such Loan Party.  Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 10.07: (A) shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information; and (B) shall not disclose any financial information concerning any Loan Party or its business (including any information based on any such financial information) or use any such financial information for commercial purposes without the prior written consent of the applicable Loan Party.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Loan Party authorizes each Lending Party to make announcements which are commonly known as "tombstones" of the financial arrangements entered into among the Loan Parties, the Agents, and Lenders,  in such publications as each Lending Party may in its sole and absolute discretion deem appropriate.  Any other announcements regarding the financing arrangements among the Loan Parties, the Agents and Lenders may only be made with the Borrowers' prior consent.

SECTION 10.08RIGHT OF SETOFF.

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each of Lending Parties and their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lending Party to or for the credit or the account of a Borrower or any other Loan Party against any and all of the Obligations to such Lending Party or such Affiliate, irrespective of whether or not such Lending Party shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of such Borrower or such Loan Party may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lending Party different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such obligations.  The rights of each Lending Party and its Affiliates under this Section 10.08 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lending Party or its Affiliates may have.  Each Lending Party agrees to notify each Borrower and Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.  NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, NO LENDING PARTY SHALL EXERCISE, OR ATTEMPT TO EXERCISE, ANY RIGHT OF SET OFF, BANKER'S LIEN, OR THE LIKE, AGAINST ANY DEPOSIT ACCOUNT OR PROPERTY OF A BORROWER OR ANY OTHER LOAN PARTY HELD OR MAINTAINED BY

143


SUCH LENDING PARTY WITHOUT THE PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT OF ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT.

SECTION 10.09INTEREST RATE LIMITATION.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the Maximum Rate.  If an Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the applicable Borrower.  In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by an Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Laws: (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest; (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof; and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

SECTION 10.10COUNTERPARTS; INTEGRATION; EFFECTIVENESS.

This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract.  This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire agreement among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous documents, agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof.  Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed and delivered by each Agent and when each Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or in portable document format or by electronic signature shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. Electronic signatures shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature to the extent and as provided for in any applicable Law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

SECTION 10.11SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.

All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof.  Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by each Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by any Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that any Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Credit Extension, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loans or any other Obligations (other than Unasserted Obligations) have not been Paid in Full.

SECTION 10.12SEVERABILITY.

If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions.  The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

144


SECTION 10.13PATRIOT ACT NOTICE.

Each Lending Party that is subject to the PATRIOT Act and each Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lending Party) hereby notify each Borrower and each other Loan Party that, pursuant to the requirements of the PATRIOT Act, they are each required to obtain, verify, and record, and each Borrower and each other Loan Party agrees to provide to the requesting Lending Party or Agent promptly upon request, information that identifies each Borrower and each other Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of each Borrower and each other Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lending Party or Agent, as applicable, to identify each Borrower and each other Loan Party in accordance with the PATRIOT Act.

SECTION 10.21ACKNOWLEDGEMENT REGARDING ANY SUPPORTED QFCS.

To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Hedge Agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, "QFC Credit Support" and each such QFC a "Supported QFC"), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the "U.S. Special Resolution Regimes") in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States): In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a "Covered Party") becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.  In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

Agent has determined in its sole discretion (whether or not after receipt of any notice under clause (b) below) that any funds received by such Payment Recipient were erroneously or mistakenly transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Payment Recipient) or (ii) any Payment Recipient receives any payment from an Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by an Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, as applicable, (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by an Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, as applicable, or (z) that such Payment Recipient otherwise becomes aware was transmitted or received in error or by mistake (in whole or in part) then, in each case, an error in payment shall be presumed to have been made (any such amounts specified in clauses (i) or (ii) of this Section 10.22(a), whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise; individually and collectively, an "Erroneous Payment"), then, in each case, such Payment Recipient is deemed to have knowledge of such error at the time of its receipt of such Erroneous Payment; provided that nothing in this Section shall require such Agent to provide any of the notices specified in clauses (i) or (ii) above. Each Payment Recipient agrees that it shall not assert any right or claim to any Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by an Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payments, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on "discharge for value" or any similar doctrine.
(b)Without limiting the immediately preceding clause (a), each Payment Recipient agrees that, in the case of clause (a)(ii) above, it shall promptly notify Administrative Agent in writing of such occurrence.
(c)In the case of either clause (a)(i) or (a)(ii) above, such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Agent and shall be segregated by the Payment Recipient and held in trust for the benefit of such Agent, and upon demand from such Agent such Payment Recipient shall (or, shall cause any Person who received any portion of an Erroneous Payment on its behalf to), promptly, but in all events no later than one Business Day thereafter, return to such Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds and in the currency so received, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to such Agent at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by such Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect (such amount, the "Erroneous Payment Return").
(d)In the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by an Agent for any reason, after demand therefor by such Agent in accordance with immediately preceding clause (c), from any Lender that is a Payment Recipient or an Affiliate of a Payment Recipient (such unrecovered amount as to such Lender, an "Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency"), then at the sole discretion of such Agent and upon such Agent's written notice to such Lender (i) such Lender shall be deemed to have made a cashless assignment of the full face amount of the portion of its Loans (but not its Commitments) with respect to which such Erroneous Payment was made (the "Erroneous Payment Impacted Loans") to such Agent or, at the option of such Agent, such Agent's applicable lending affiliate (such assignee, the "Agent Assignee") in an amount that is equal to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (or such lesser amount as such Agent may specify) (such assignment of the Loans (but not Commitments) of the Erroneous Payment Impacted Loans, the "Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment") plus any accrued and unpaid interest on such assigned amount, without further consent or approval of any party hereto and without any payment by the Agent Assignee as the assignee of such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment.  Without limitation of its rights hereunder, following the

148


effectiveness of the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, such Agent may make a cashless reassignment to the applicable assigning Lender of any Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment at any time by written notice to the applicable assigning Lender and upon such reassignment all of the Loans assigned pursuant to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment shall be reassigned to such Lender without any requirement for payment or other consideration.  The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (1) any assignment contemplated in this clause (d) shall be made without any requirement for any payment or other consideration paid by the applicable assignee or received by the assignor, (2) the provisions of this clause (d) shall govern in the event of any conflict with the terms and conditions of Section 10.06 and (3) an Agent may reflect such assignments in the Register without further consent or action by any other Person.
(e)Each party hereto hereby agrees that (x) in the event an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered from any Payment Recipient that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, each Agent (1) shall be subrogated to all the rights of such Payment Recipient and (2) is authorized to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Payment Recipient under any Loan Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by such Agent to such Payment Recipient from any source, against any amount due to such Agent under this Section 10.22 or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement, (y) the receipt of an Erroneous Payment by a Payment Recipient shall not for the purpose of this Agreement be treated as a payment, prepayment, repayment, discharge or other satisfaction of any Obligations owed by Borrowers or any other Loan Party, except, in each case, to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by such Agent from Borrowers or any other Loan Party for the purpose of making a payment on the Obligations and (z) to the extent that an Erroneous Payment (other than an Erroneous Payment comprised of funds received by an Agent from Borrowers or any other Loan Party for the purpose of making a payment on the Obligations) was in any way or at any time credited as payment or satisfaction of any of the Obligations, the Obligations or any part thereof that were so credited, and all rights of the Payment Recipient, as the case may be, shall be reinstated and continue in full force and effect as if such payment or satisfaction had never been received.
(f)Each party's obligations under this Section 10.22 shall survive the resignation or replacement of an Agent or any transfer of right or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Loan Document.
(g)The provisions of this Section 10.22 to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) nothing in this Section 10.22 will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from any Payment Recipient's receipt of an Erroneous Payment and (ii) there will only be deemed to be a recovery of the Erroneous Payment to the extent that such Agent has received payment from the Payment Recipient in immediately available funds the Erroneous Payment Return, whether directly from the Payment Recipient, as a result of the exercise by such Agent of its rights of subrogation or set off as set forth above in clause (e) or as a result of the receipt by Agent Assignee of a payment of the outstanding principal balance of the Loans assigned to Agent Assignee pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, but excluding any other amounts in respect thereof (it being agreed that any payments of interest, fees, expenses or other amounts (other than principal) received by Agent Assignee in respect of the Loans assigned to Agent Assignee pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment shall be the sole property of the Agent Assignee and shall not constitute a recovery of the Erroneous Payment).
