Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the Revolving Loans and the Revolving Loan Commitments shall be subject to the limitation that in no event shall the Total Utilization of Revolving Loan Commitments at any time exceed the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount then in effect.

(a) General Provisions. Swing Line Lender hereby agrees, subject to the limitations set forth in the last paragraph of subsection 2.1A(ii) and set forth below with respect to the maximum amount of Swing Line Loans permitted to be outstanding from time to time, to make a portion of the Revolving Loan Commitments available to Company from time to time during the period from the Closing Date to but excluding the Revolving Loan Commitment Termination Date by making Swing Line Loans to Company in an aggregate amount not exceeding the amount of the Swing Line Loan Commitment to be used for the purposes identified in subsection 2.5B, notwithstanding the fact that such Swing Line Loans, when aggregated with Swing Line Lender’s outstanding Revolving Loans and Swing Line Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Letter of Credit Usage then in effect, may exceed Swing Line Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment. The original amount of the Swing Line Loan Commitment is $5,000,000; provided that any reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount made pursuant to subsection 2.4 that reduces the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount to an amount less than the then current amount of the Swing Line Loan Commitment shall result in an automatic corresponding reduction of the amount of the Swing Line Loan Commitment to the amount of the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount, as so reduced, without any further action on the part of Company, Administrative Agent or Swing Line Lender. The Swing Line Loan Commitment shall expire on the Revolving Loan Commitment Termination Date and all Swing Line Loans and all other amounts owed hereunder with respect to the Swing Line Loans shall be paid in full no later than that date. Amounts borrowed under this subsection 2.1A(iii) may be repaid and reborrowed to but excluding the Revolving Loan Commitment Termination Date.

(b) Swing Line Loan Prepayment with Proceeds of Revolving Loans. With respect to any Swing Line Loans that have not been voluntarily prepaid by Company pursuant to subsection 2.4B(i), Swing Line Lender may, at any time in its sole and absolute discretion (and, no later than the tenth day following the borrowing of any Swing Line Loan if such Swing Line Loan has not be repaid on or prior to such date, shall), deliver to Administrative Agent (with a copy to Company), no later than 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the first Business Day in advance of the proposed Funding Date, a notice requesting Revolving Lenders to make Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans on such Funding Date in an amount equal to the amount of such Swing Line Loans (the “Refunded Swing Line Loans”) outstanding on the date such notice is given. Company hereby authorizes the giving of any such notice and the making of any such Revolving Loans. Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, (1) the proceeds of such Revolving Loans made by Revolving Lenders other than Swing Line Lender shall be immediately delivered by Administrative Agent to Swing Line Lender (and not to Company) and applied to repay a corresponding portion of the Refunded Swing Line Loans and (2) on the day such Revolving Loans are made, Swing Line Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Refunded Swing Line Loans shall be deemed to be paid with the proceeds of a Revolving Loan made by Swing Line Lender, and such portion of the Swing Line Loans deemed to be so paid shall no longer be outstanding as Swing Line Loans and shall no longer be due under the Swing Line Note, if any, of Swing Line Lender but shall instead constitute part of Swing Line Lender’s outstanding Revolving Loans and shall be due under the Revolving Note, if any, of Swing Line Lender. Company hereby authorizes Administrative Agent and Swing Line Lender to charge Company’s accounts with Administrative Agent and Swing Line Lender (up to the amount available in each such account) in order to immediately pay Swing Line Lender the amount of the Refunded Swing Line Loans to the extent the proceeds of such Revolving Loans made by Revolving Lenders, including the Revolving Loan deemed to be made by Swing Line Lender, are not sufficient to repay in full the Refunded Swing Line Loans. If any portion of any such amount paid (or deemed to be

paid) to Swing Line Lender should be recovered by or on behalf of Company from Swing Line Lender in any bankruptcy proceeding, in any assignment for the benefit of creditors or otherwise, the loss of the amount so recovered shall be ratably shared among all Lenders in the manner contemplated by subsection 10.5.

(c) Swing Line Loan Assignments. On the Funding Date of each Swing Line Loan, each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby agrees to, purchase an assignment of such Swing Line Loan in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share. If for any reason (1) Revolving Loans are not made upon the request of Swing Line Lender as provided in the immediately preceding paragraph in an amount sufficient to repay any amounts owed to Swing Line Lender in respect of such Swing Line Loan or (2) the Revolving Loan Commitments are terminated at a time when such Swing Line Loan is outstanding, upon notice from Swing Line Lender as provided below, each Revolving Lender shall fund the purchase of such assignment in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share (calculated, in the case of the foregoing clause (2), immediately prior to such termination of the Revolving Loan Commitments) of the unpaid amount of such Swing Line Loans together with accrued interest thereon. Upon one Business Day’s notice from Swing Line Lender to Administrative Agent who shall promptly notify the Revolving Lenders, each Revolving Lender shall deliver to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Swing Line Lender such amount in same day funds at the Funding and Payment Account. Without limiting the effect of the deemed assignment described in the preceding sentence, in order to further evidence such assignment (and without prejudice to the effectiveness of the assignment provisions set forth above), each Revolving Lender agrees to enter into an Assignment Agreement at the request of Swing Line Lender in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Swing Line Lender. In the event any Revolving Lender fails to make available to Swing Line Lender any amount as provided in this paragraph, Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Revolving Lender together with interest thereon at the rate customarily used by Swing Line Lender for the correction of errors among banks for three Business Days and thereafter at the Base Rate. In the event Swing Line Lender receives a payment of any amount with respect to which other Revolving Lenders have funded the purchase of assignments as provided in this paragraph, Swing Line Lender shall promptly remit such payment to Administrative Agent for distribution to each such other Revolving Lender its Pro Rata Share of such payment.

(d) Revolving Lenders’ Obligations. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Revolving Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans for the purpose of repaying any Refunded Swing Line Loans pursuant to subsection 2.1A(iii)(b) and each Revolving Lender’s obligation to purchase an assignment of any unpaid Swing Line Loans pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (1) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Revolving Lender may have against Swing Line Lender, Company or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (2) the occurrence or continuation of an Event of Default or a Potential Event of Default; (3) any adverse change in the business, operations, properties, assets, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of Company or any of its Subsidiaries; (4) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by any party thereto; or (5) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided that such obligations of each Revolving Lender are subject to the condition that (x) Swing Line Lender believed in good faith that all conditions under Section 4 to the making of the applicable Refunded Swing Line Loans or other unpaid Swing Line Loans, as the case may be, were satisfied at the time such Refunded Swing Line Loans or unpaid Swing Line Loans were made or (y) the satisfaction of any such condition not satisfied had been waived in accordance with subsection 10.6 prior to or at the time such Refunded Swing Line Loans or other unpaid Swing Line Loans were made.

B. Borrowing Mechanics. Term Loans or Revolving Loans made as Base Rate Loans on any Funding Date (other than Revolving Loans made pursuant to a request by Swing Line Lender pursuant to subsection 2.1A(iii) or Revolving Loans made pursuant to subsection 3.3B) shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and multiples of $500,000 in excess of that amount. Term Loans or Revolving Loans made on any Funding Date as Eurodollar Rate Loans with a particular Interest Period shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and multiples of $500,000 in excess of that amount. Swing Line Loans made on any Funding Date shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $500,000 and multiples of $100,000 in excess of that amount. Whenever Company desires that Lenders make Term Loans or Revolving Loans it shall deliver to Administrative Agent a duly executed Notice of Borrowing no later than 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) (x) in the case of the initial funding, at least one Business Day in advance of the proposed Funding Date and (y) in the case of all other fundings, at least three Business Days in advance of the proposed Funding Date (in the case of a Eurodollar Rate Loan) or at least one Business Day in advance of the proposed Funding Date (in the case of a Base Rate Loan). Whenever Company desires that Swing Line Lender make a Swing Line Loan, it shall deliver to Swing Line Lender at the Swing Line Funding and Payment Office a duly executed Notice of Borrowing no later than 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the proposed Funding Date. Term Loans and Revolving Loans may be continued as or converted into Base Rate Loans and Eurodollar Rate Loans in the manner provided in subsection 2.2D. In lieu of delivering a Notice of Borrowing, Company may give Administrative Agent (or in the case of Swing Line Loans, Swing Line Lender and Administrative Agent), as applicable, telephonic notice by the required time of any proposed borrowing under this subsection 2.1B; provided that such notice shall be promptly confirmed in writing by delivery of a duly executed Notice of Borrowing to Administrative Agent (or Swing Line Lender in the case of Swing Line Loans) on or before the applicable Funding Date.

Neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender (including Swing Line Lender) shall incur any liability to Company in acting upon any telephonic notice referred to above that Administrative Agent (or Swing Line Lender, as applicable) believes in good faith to have been given by an Officer or other person authorized to borrow on behalf of Company or for otherwise acting in good faith under this subsection 2.1B or under subsection 2.2D, and upon funding of Loans by Lenders, and upon conversion or continuation of the applicable basis for determining the interest rate with respect to any Loans pursuant to subsection 2.2D, in each case in accordance with this Agreement, pursuant to any such telephonic notice Company shall have effected Loans or a conversion or continuation, as the case may be, hereunder.

Company shall notify Administrative Agent (or, in the case of Swing Line Loans, Swing Line Lender and Administrative Agent) prior to the funding of any Loans in the event that any of the matters to which Company is required to certify in the applicable Notice of Borrowing is no longer true and correct as of the applicable Funding Date, and the acceptance by Company of the proceeds of any Loans shall constitute a re-certification by Company, as of the applicable Funding Date, as to the matters to which Company is required to certify in the applicable Notice of Borrowing.

Except as otherwise provided in subsections 2.6B, 2.6C and 2.6G, a Notice of Borrowing for a Eurodollar Rate Loan (or telephonic notice in lieu thereof) shall be irrevocable and Company shall be bound to make a borrowing in accordance therewith.

C. Disbursement of Funds. All Term Loans and Revolving Loans under this Agreement shall be made by Lenders simultaneously and proportionately to their respective Pro Rata Shares, it being understood that neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in that other Lender’s obligation to make a Loan requested hereunder nor shall the amount of the Commitment of any Lender to make the particular type of Loan requested or Pro

Rata Share of any Lender be increased or decreased as a result of a default by any other Lender in that other Lender’s obligation to make a Loan requested hereunder. Promptly after receipt by Administrative Agent of a Notice of Borrowing pursuant to subsection 2.1B (or telephonic notice in lieu thereof), Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender for that type of Loan (other than Swing Line Lender, in the case of a Swing Line Loan) of the proposed borrowing. Each such Lender (other than Swing Line Lender) shall make the amount of its Loan available to Administrative Agent at the Funding and Payment Office not later than 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the applicable Funding Date, in same day funds in Dollars. Swing Line Lender shall make the amount of its Loan available directly to Company as provided below. Except as provided in subsection 2.1A(iii) or subsection 3.3B with respect to Revolving Loans used to repay Refunded Swing Line Loans or to reimburse any Issuing Lender for the amount of a drawing under a Letter of Credit issued by it, upon satisfaction or waiver of the conditions precedent specified in subsections 4.1 (in the case of Loans made on the Closing Date) and 4.2 (in the case of all Loans), Administrative Agent or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be, shall make the proceeds of such Loans available to Company on the applicable Funding Date by causing an amount of same day funds in Dollars, equal to the proceeds of all such Loans received by Administrative Agent from Lenders or to be disbursed by Swing Line Lender, as applicable, to be credited to the account designated by Company in the applicable Notice of Borrowing.

Unless Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to a Funding Date for any Loans that such Lender does not intend to make available to Administrative Agent the amount of such Lender’s Loan requested on such Funding Date, Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to Administrative Agent on such Funding Date and Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, but shall not be obligated to (subject to any separate obligation to fund under the Commitment Letter), make available to Company a corresponding amount on such Funding Date. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to Administrative Agent by such Lender, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from such Funding Date until the date such amount is paid to Administrative Agent, at the customary rate set by Administrative Agent for the correction of errors among banks for three Business Days and thereafter at the Base Rate. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Company and Company shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to Administrative Agent together with interest thereon, for each day from such Funding Date until the date such amount is paid to Administrative Agent, at the rate payable under this Agreement for Base Rate Loans. Nothing in this subsection 2.1C shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that Company may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

D. The Register. Administrative Agent, acting for these purposes solely as an agent of Company (it being acknowledged that Administrative Agent, in such capacity, and its officers, directors, employees, agent and affiliates shall constitute Indemnitees under subsection 10.3), shall maintain (and make available for inspection by Company and Lenders upon reasonable prior notice at reasonable times, provided that a Lender shall only be entitled to inspect its own entry in the Register and not that of any other Lender) at its address referred to in subsection 10.8 a copy of each Assignment Agreement delivered to it and accepted by it as provided in subsection 10.1B(ii) and a register for the recordation of, and shall record, the names and addresses of Lenders and the respective amounts of the Term Loan Commitment, Revolving Loan Commitment, Swing Line Loan Commitment, Term Loans, Revolving Loans and Swing Line Loans of each Lender from time to time (the “Register”). Company, Administrative Agent and Lenders shall, absent manifest error, deem and treat the Persons listed as Lenders in the Register as the holders and owners of the corresponding Commitments and Loans listed therein for all

purposes hereof, notwithstanding notice to the contrary; all amounts owed with respect to any Commitment or Loan shall be owed to the Lender listed in the Register as the owner thereof; and any request, authority or consent of any Person who, at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent, is listed in the Register as a Lender shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, assignee or transferee of the corresponding Commitments or Loans. Each Lender shall record on its internal records the amount of its Loans and Commitments and each payment in respect hereof, and any such recordation shall be prima facie evidence of the matters recorded, subject to the entries in the Register, which shall, absent manifest error, govern in the event of any inconsistency with any Lender’s records. Failure to make any recordation in the Register or in any Lender’s records, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect any Loans or Commitments or any Obligations in respect of any Loans.

E. Optional Notes. If so requested by any Lender by written notice to Company (with a copy to Administrative Agent) at least two Business Days prior to the Closing Date or at any time thereafter, Company shall execute and deliver to such Lender (and/or, if applicable and if so specified in such notice, to any Person who is an assignee of such Lender pursuant to subsection 10.1) on the Closing Date (or, if such notice is delivered after the second Business Day preceding the Closing Date, promptly after Company’s receipt of such notice) a promissory note or promissory notes to evidence such Lender’s Term Loan, Revolving Loans or Swing Line Loans, substantially in the form of Exhibit V, Exhibit VI or Exhibit VII annexed hereto, respectively, with appropriate insertions.

A. Rate of Interest. Subject to the provisions of subsections 2.6 and 2.7, each Term Loan and each Revolving Loan shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date made to, but excluding, maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate determined by reference to the Base Rate or the Eurodollar Rate. Subject to the provisions of subsection 2.7, each Swing Line Loan shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date made but excluding maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate determined by reference to the Base Rate. The applicable basis for determining the rate of interest with respect to any Term Loan or any Revolving Loan shall be selected by Company initially at the time a Notice of Borrowing is given with respect to such Loan pursuant to subsection 2.1B (subject to the last sentence of subsection 2.1B), and the basis for determining the interest rate with respect to any Term Loan or any Revolving Loan may be changed from time to time pursuant to subsection 2.2D (subject to the last sentence of subsection 2.1B). If on any day a Term Loan or Revolving Loan is outstanding with respect to which notice has not been delivered to Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement specifying the applicable basis for determining the rate of interest, then for that day that Loan shall bear interest determined by reference to the Base Rate.

(i) Subject to the provisions of subsections 2.2A(v), 2.2E, 2.2G and 2.7, the Term Loans shall bear interest through maturity as follows:

(a) if a Base Rate Loan, then at the sum of the Base Rate plus 1.50% per annum; or

(b) if a Eurodollar Rate Loan, then at the sum of the Eurodollar Rate plus 2.50% per annum.

(ii) Subject to the provisions of subsections 2.2A(v), 2.2E, 2.2G and 2.7, the Revolving Loans shall bear interest through maturity as follows:

(a) if a Base Rate Loan, then at the sum of the Base Rate plus the Base Rate Margin set forth in the table below opposite the applicable Consolidated Leverage Ratio for the four Fiscal Quarter period for which the applicable Pricing Certificate has been delivered pursuant to subsection 6.1(iv); or

(b) if a Eurodollar Rate Loan, then at the sum of the Eurodollar Rate plus the Eurodollar Rate Margin set forth in the table below opposite the applicable Consolidated Leverage Ratio for the four Fiscal Quarter period for which the applicable Pricing Certificate has been delivered pursuant to subsection 6.1(iv):

provided that, until the delivery of the Pricing Certificate for the first complete Fiscal Quarter ending after the Closing Date, the applicable margin for Revolving Loans that are Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be 2.50% per annum and for Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans shall be 1.50% per annum.

(iii) Upon delivery of the Pricing Certificate by Company to Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection 6.1(iv), the Base Rate Margin and the Eurodollar Rate Margin for Revolving Loans shall automatically be adjusted in accordance with such Pricing Certificate, such adjustment to become effective on the third succeeding Business Day following the receipt by Administrative Agent of such Pricing Certificate (subject to the provisions of the foregoing clause (ii)); provided that (x) if a Potential Event of Default or Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the applicable margin for Revolving Loans shall be the maximum margin for the relevant Loan set forth above, (y) if at any time a Pricing Certificate is not delivered at the time required pursuant to subsection 6.1(iv), from the time such Pricing Certificate was required to be delivered until the third Business Day succeeding delivery of such Pricing Certificate, the applicable margins for Revolving Loans shall be the maximum margin for the relevant Loan set forth above or (z) if for any period of time, the Base Rate Margin and Eurodollar Rate Margin are reduced to a level below the highest level set forth above as a result of an inaccuracy contained in any Pricing Certificate, then promptly following the date on which such inaccuracy is determined to have existed, Company shall pay the additional amount of interest that would have accrued during such period had such inaccuracy not been included in such Pricing Certificate.

(iv) Subject to the provisions of subsections 2.2E, 2.2G and 2.7, the Swing Line Loans shall bear interest through maturity at the sum of the Base Rate plus the applicable Base Rate Margin for Revolving Loans.

(v) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the interest rates applicable to the Term Loans and the Revolving Loans as provided by subsections 2.2A(i) and 2.2A(ii), respectively, shall be increased by an additional (x) 0.25%, if for any reason audited financial statements for Company and its Subsidiaries for Fiscal Year 2006, certified by Ernst & Young LLP (or another nationally recognized auditing firm) without material qualification, are not delivered to Administrative

Agent on or prior to December 31, 2007, and (y) an additional 0.25%, if such certified audited financial statements have not been delivered to the Administrative Agent on or prior to June 1, 2008; provided that any increases pursuant to this subsection 2.2A(v) shall cease to apply at such later date, if any, upon which such audited financial statements for Fiscal Year 2006 have in fact been delivered to Administrative Agent.

B. Interest Periods. In connection with each Eurodollar Rate Loan, Company may, pursuant to the applicable Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/ Continuation, as the case may be, select an interest period (each an “Interest Period”) to be applicable to such Loan, which Interest Period shall be, at Company’s option, either a one, two, three or six-month period or, to the extent available to all Lenders of the applicable Class, a nine or twelve month period; provided that:

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

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

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

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

(v) no Interest Period with respect to any portion of the Term Loans shall extend beyond the Term Loan Maturity Date, and no Interest Period with respect to any portion of the Revolving Loans shall extend beyond the Revolving Loan Commitment Termination Date;

(vii) in the event Company fails to specify an Interest Period for any Eurodollar Rate Loan in the applicable Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation, Company shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month; and

(viii) notwithstanding the foregoing, until the earlier to occur of (x) the 30^th day following the Closing Date or (y) completion of the “successful syndication” of the Loans (as described in the Fee Letter), except with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans made on the Closing Date and unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent, Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be restricted to a single one week Interest Period at all times, with the first such Interest Period to begin not sooner than three Business Days after the Closing Date and with any subsequent Interest Periods to begin on the last day of the prior one week Interest Period theretofore in effect.

C. Interest Payments. Subject to the provisions of subsection 2.2E, interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on and to each Interest Payment Date applicable to that Loan, upon any prepayment of that Loan (to the extent accrued on the amount being prepaid) and at maturity (including final maturity); provided that, in the event any Swing Line Loans or any Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans are prepaid pursuant to subsection 2.4B(i), interest accrued on such Loans through the date of such prepayment shall be payable on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date applicable to Base Rate Loans (or, if earlier, at final maturity).

D. Conversion or Continuation. Subject to the provisions of subsection 2.6, Company shall have the option (i) to convert at any time all or any part of its outstanding Term Loans or Revolving Loans equal to $1,000,000 and multiples of $500,000 in excess of that amount from Loans bearing interest at a rate determined by reference to one basis to Loans bearing interest at a rate determined by reference to an alternative basis or (ii) upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to a Eurodollar Rate Loan, to continue all or any portion of such Loan equal to $1,000,000 and multiples of $500,000 in excess of that amount as a Eurodollar Rate Loan; provided, however, that a Eurodollar Rate Loan may only be converted into a Base Rate Loan on the expiration date of an Interest Period applicable thereto.

Company shall deliver a duly executed Notice of Conversion/Continuation to Administrative Agent no later than 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) at least one Business Day in advance of the proposed conversion date (in the case of a conversion to a Base Rate Loan) and at least three Business Days in advance of the proposed conversion/continuation date (in the case of a conversion to, or a continuation of, a Eurodollar Rate Loan). In lieu of delivering a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, Company may give Administrative Agent telephonic notice by the required time of any proposed conversion/continuation under this subsection 2.2D; provided that such notice shall be promptly confirmed in writing by delivery of a duly executed Notice of Conversion/Continuation to Administrative Agent on or before the proposed conversion/continuation date. Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of any Loan subject to a Notice of Conversion/Continuation.

Except as otherwise provided in subsections 2.6B, 2.6C and 2.6G, a Notice of Conversion/Continuation for conversion to, or continuation of, a Eurodollar Rate Loan (or telephonic notice in lieu thereof) shall be irrevocable and Company shall be bound to effect a conversion or continuation in accordance therewith.

E. Default Rate. If all or a portion of (i) the principal amount of any Loan or (ii) any interest payable thereon or other amounts owing under this Agreement shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum that is (x) in the case of overdue principal, the rate that would otherwise be applicable thereto plus 2% or (y) in the case of any overdue interest or such other amount, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the rate described in subsection 2.2A plus 2% from the date of such non-payment to the date on which such amount is paid in full (after as well as before judgment).

F. Computation of Interest. Interest on the Loans shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year, in each case for the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which it accrues; provided that, in the case of interest on Base Rate Loans determined by reference to the Prime Rate, interest shall be computed based on the number of days elapsed in a year of 365 or 366 days, as appropriate. In computing interest on any Loan, the date of the making of such Loan or the first day of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan being converted from a Eurodollar Rate Loan, the date of conversion of such Eurodollar Rate Loan to such Base Rate Loan, as the case may be, shall be included, and the date of payment of such Loan or the expiration date of an Interest

Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan being converted to a Eurodollar Rate Loan, the date of conversion of such Base Rate Loan to such Eurodollar Rate Loan, as the case may be, shall be excluded; provided that if a Loan is repaid on the same day on which it is made, one day’s interest shall be paid on that Loan.

G. Maximum Rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this subsection 2.2, in no event shall the rate of interest payable by Company with respect to any Loan exceed the maximum rate of interest permitted to be charged under applicable law.

A. Revolving Commitment Fees. Company agrees to pay to Administrative Agent, for distribution to each Revolving Lender in proportion to that Lender’s Pro Rata Share, commitment fees for the period from and including the Closing Date to and excluding the Revolving Loan Commitment Termination Date equal to the average of the daily excess of the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount over the sum of (i) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Revolving Loans (but not any outstanding Swing Line Loans) plus (ii) the Letter of Credit Usage multiplied by 0.50% per annum; provided, during any period in which the Consolidated Leverage Ratio for which the applicable Pricing Certificate for the period ending as of the end of the first full Fiscal Quarter after the Closing Date has been delivered pursuant to subsection 6.1(iv) shall be less than 4.00:1.00, such percentage shall be 0.375% per annum, such commitment fees to be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed and to be payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December of each year, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the Revolving Loan Commitment Termination Date.

B. Other Fees. Company agrees to pay to Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and Arrangers such fees in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between Company and Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and Arrangers, respectively.

2.4 Repayments, Prepayments and Reductions of Revolving Loan Commitment Amount; General Provisions Regarding Payments; Application of Proceeds of Collateral and Payments Under Guaranty.

A. Scheduled Payments of Term Loans. Company shall make principal payments on the Term Loans in installments on the last day of each Fiscal Quarter, beginning with the Fiscal Quarter ending September 30, 2007 in an amount equal to 0.25% of the initial aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans; provided that the scheduled installments of principal of the Term Loans set forth above shall be reduced in connection with any voluntary or mandatory prepayments of the Term Loans in accordance with subsection 2.4B(iv); and provided, further, that the Term Loans and all other amounts owed hereunder with respect to the Term Loans shall be paid in full no later than the Term Loan Maturity Date, and the final installment payable by Company in respect of the Term Loans on such date shall be in an amount sufficient to repay all amounts owing by Company under this Agreement with respect to the Term Loans.

(i) Voluntary Prepayments. Company may, upon written or telephonic notice to Administrative Agent on or prior to 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the date of prepayment, which notice, if telephonic, shall be promptly confirmed in writing, at any time and from time to time, prepay

any Swing Line Loan on any Business Day in whole or in part in an aggregate minimum amount of $500,000 and multiples of $100,000 in excess of that amount. Company may, upon not less than one Business Day’s prior written or telephonic notice, in the case of Base Rate Loans, and three Business Days’ prior written or telephonic notice, in the case of Eurodollar Rate Loans, in each case given to Administrative Agent by 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the date required and, if given by telephone, promptly confirmed in writing to Administrative Agent, who will promptly notify each Lender whose Loans are to be prepaid of such prepayment, at any time and from time to time prepay the Term Loans or Revolving Loans on any Business Day in whole or in part in an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and multiples of $500,000 in excess of that amount. All written notices delivered pursuant to this subsection 2.4B(i) shall be in the form of a Notice of Prepayment and all notices whether written or telephonic delivered pursuant to this subsection 2.4B(i) shall be irrevocable, and once given as aforesaid, the principal amount of the Loans specified in such notice shall become due and payable on the prepayment date specified therein; provided that if notice is given in connection with the refinancing of the Loans with the proceeds of Indebtedness (other than the Loans) or in connection with a transaction that would result in a Change in Control and, in either case, such transaction does not close, such notice shall be revocable and the amounts specified therein shall not be due and payable except for any amounts payable as a result thereof pursuant to subsection 2.6D. Any such voluntary prepayment shall be applied as specified in subsection 2.4B(iv).

(ii) Voluntary Reductions of Revolving Loan Commitments. Company may, upon not less than three Business Days’ prior written or telephonic notice confirmed in writing to Administrative Agent, or upon such lesser number of days’ prior written or telephonic notice, as determined by Administrative Agent in its sole discretion, at any time and from time to time, terminate in whole or permanently reduce in part, without premium or penalty, the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount in an amount up to the amount by which the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount exceeds the Total Utilization of Revolving Loan Commitments at the time of such proposed termination or reduction; provided that any such partial reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and multiples of $500,000 in excess of that amount. The Notice of Prepayment shall designate the date (which shall be a Business Day) of such termination or reduction and the amount of any partial reduction, and such termination or reduction shall be effective on the date specified in Company’s notice and shall reduce the amount of the Revolving Loan Commitment of each Revolving Lender proportionately to its Pro Rata Share. Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Revolving Lender of such notice. Any such voluntary reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount shall be applied as specified in subsection 2.4B(iv). All written notices delivered pursuant to this subsection 2.4B(ii) shall be in the form of a Notice of Prepayment, all notices, whether written or telephonic, delivered pursuant to this subsection 2.4B(ii) shall be irrevocable unless delivered in connection with a refinancing or a transaction that would result in a Change in Control and Company shall be bound to the termination or reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitments referenced in such notice.

(iii) Mandatory Prepayments. The Loans shall be prepaid in the amounts and under the circumstances (including the giving of the Notice of Prepayment and Officer’s Certificate required by subsection 2.4B(iii)(e)), set forth below, all such prepayments to be applied as set forth below or as more specifically provided in subsection 2.4B(iv) and subsection 2.4D:

(a) Prepayments from Net Asset Sale Proceeds. No later than the third Business Day after the date of receipt by any Loan Party or any Subsidiary of any Net Asset Sale Proceeds in respect of any Asset Sale, Company shall (1) prepay the Loans in an aggregate amount equal to such Net Asset Sale Proceeds less the amount reinvested pursuant to clause (2) below or (2) so long as no Potential Event of Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,

reinvest all or a portion of such Net Asset Sale Proceeds in equipment or other productive assets used in the business of any of the Loan Parties within 365 days of such date of receipt. In addition, Company shall, no later than 365 days after any Loan Party’s receipt of such Net Asset Sale Proceeds that have not theretofore been applied to the Obligations or that have not been so reinvested as provided above, make an additional prepayment of the Loans in the full amount of all such Net Asset Sale Proceeds; provided that, if Company shall have contractually committed to reinvest any Net Asset Sale Proceeds during such 365 day period, Company shall have until the latter of (x) 365 days from the date of receipt of Net Asset Sale Proceeds and (y) 180 days from the date of such contractual commitment, to reinvest such Net Asset Sale Proceeds and Company shall make an additional prepayment of Loans, with any Net Asset Sale Proceeds not reinvested as of such date; provided further that, in the case of a disposition by a Foreign Subsidiary, to the extent that Company has determined in good faith that repatriation of any of or all the Net Asset Sale Proceeds of any disposition of a Foreign Subsidiary would have a material adverse tax consequence with respect to such Net Asset Sale Proceeds, the Net Asset Sale Proceeds so affected may be retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary so long as on or before the date on which any Net Asset Sale Proceeds so retained would otherwise have been required to be applied to reinvestments or prepayments pursuant to this subsection 2.4B(iii)(a), (x) Company applies an amount equal to such Net Asset Sale Proceeds to such reinvestments or prepayments as if such Net Asset Sale Proceeds had been received by Company rather than such Foreign Subsidiary, less the amount of additional taxes that would have been payable or reserved against if such Net Asset Sale Proceeds had been repatriated (or, if less, the Net Asset Sale Proceeds that would be calculated if received by such Foreign Subsidiary) or (y) such Net Asset Sale Proceeds are applied to the repayment of Indebtedness of a Foreign Subsidiary.

(b) Prepayments from Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds. No later than the third Business Day following the date of receipt by Administrative Agent or by any Loan Party or any Subsidiary of any Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds that are required to be applied to prepay the Loans pursuant to the provisions of subsection 6.4C, Company shall (1) prepay the Loans in an aggregate amount equal to the amount of such Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds less the amount reinvested pursuant to clause (2) below or (2) so long as no Potential Event of Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, reinvest such Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds in equipment or other productive assets used in the business of any of the Loan Parties, within 365 days of such date of receipt. In addition, Company shall, no later than 365 days after any Loan Party’s or any Subsidiary’s receipt of such Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds that have not theretofore been applied to the Obligations or that have not been so reinvested as provided above, make an additional prepayment of the Loans in the full amount of all such Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds; provided that, if Company shall have contractually committed to reinvest any Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds during such 365 day period, Company shall have until the latter of (x) 365 days from the date of receipt of Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds and (y) 180 days from the date of such contractual commitment to reinvest such Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds and Company shall make an additional prepayment of Loans with any Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds not reinvested as of such date.

(c) Prepayments Due to Issuance of Indebtedness. No later than the third Business Day after the date of receipt of the Net Securities Proceeds from the issuance of any Indebtedness of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries after the Closing Date, other than Indebtedness permitted pursuant to subsection 7.1, Company shall prepay the Loans in an aggregate amount equal to such Net Securities Proceeds.

(d) Prepayments from Consolidated Excess Cash Flow. In the event that there shall be Consolidated Excess Cash Flow for any Fiscal Year (commencing with Fiscal Year 2008), Company shall, no later than 90 days after the end of such Fiscal Year, prepay the Loans in an aggregate amount equal to 50% of such Consolidated Excess Cash Flow; provided that, so long as no Potential Event of Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, during any period in which the Consolidated Leverage Ratio (determined for any such period by reference to the most recent Compliance Certificate delivered pursuant to subsection 6.1(iv) calculating the Consolidated Leverage Ratio) shall be less than 4.50:1.00 but greater than or equal to 3.00:1.00, Company shall only be required to make the prepayments otherwise required hereby in an amount equal to 25% of such Consolidated Excess Cash Flow, and during any period in which the Consolidated Leverage Ratio shall be less than 3.00:1.00, Company shall no longer be required to make the prepayments otherwise required by this subsection 2.4B(iii)(d). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the amount of Loans required to be repaid pursuant to this clause (d) for any Fiscal Year shall be reduced on a dollar for dollar basis by the amount of optional prepayments of Loans made pursuant to subsection 2.4B during such Fiscal Year (or, without duplication of any amount which would reduce the amount of Loans required to be repaid pursuant to this clause (d) for the next Fiscal Year, any prepayments of Loans made pursuant to subsection 2.4B following the last day of such Fiscal Year and prior to that date of required prepayment pursuant to this clause (d) for such Fiscal Year).

(e) Calculations of Net Proceeds Amounts; Additional Prepayments Based on Subsequent Calculations. Company shall provide Administrative Agent with not less than one Business Day’s prior written notice by delivery of a Notice of Prepayment or prior telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing by the delivery of a Notice of Prepayment, of any prepayment of the Loans pursuant to subsections 2.4B(iii)(a)-(d). Such written or telephonic notice shall be irrevocable and Company shall be bound to make the mandatory prepayment referenced in such notice on the date indicated in such notice; provided that if notice is given in connection with the refinancing of the Loans with the proceeds of Indebtedness (other than the Loans) or in connection with a transaction that would result in a Change in Control and, in either case, such transaction does not close, such notice shall be revocable and the amounts specified therein shall not be due and payable. Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of such prepayment and of the amount of the prepayment proposed to be applied to such Lender’s Loans. Concurrently with any prepayment of the Loans pursuant to subsections 2.4B(iii)(a)-(d), Company shall deliver to Administrative Agent an Officer’s Certificate demonstrating the calculation of the amount of the applicable Net Asset Sale Proceeds, Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds, Net Securities Proceeds, or Consolidated Excess Cash Flow, as the case may be, that gave rise to such prepayment. In the event that Company shall subsequently determine that the actual amount was greater than the amount set forth in such Officer’s Certificate, Company shall promptly make an additional prepayment of the Loans in an amount equal to the amount of such excess, and Company shall concurrently therewith deliver to Administrative Agent an Officer’s Certificate demonstrating the derivation of the additional amount resulting in such excess.

(f) Prepayments Due to Reductions of Revolving Loan Commitment Amount. Company shall from time to time prepay first the Swing Line Loans and second the Revolving Loans (and, after prepaying all Revolving Loans, Cash collateralize any outstanding Letters of Credit by depositing the requisite amount in the Collateral Account) (x) in full, upon the occurrence of a Potential Event of Default or Event of Default arising from a breach of subsection 7.5 and (y) to the extent necessary so that the Total Utilization of Revolving Loan Commitments shall not at any time exceed the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount then in effect. At such

time as the Total Utilization of Revolving Loan Commitments shall be equal to or less than the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount or upon compliance with subsection 7.5, if no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to the extent any Cash collateral was provided by Company and has not been applied to any Obligations as provided in the Security Agreement, such amount may, at the request of Company, be released to Company.

(a) Application of Voluntary Prepayments. Any voluntary prepayments pursuant to subsection 2.4B(i) shall be applied as specified by Company in the applicable Notice of Prepayment; provided that all such voluntary prepayments shall, irrespective of any application specified by Company, be applied in the following priority to repay any amounts owing to (i) first, Swing Line Lender due to the failure of any Revolving Lender to (A) fund a Revolving Loan for the purpose of repaying any Refunded Swing Line Loan pursuant to subsection 2.1A(iii)(b) or (B) purchase an assignment of an unpaid Swing Line Loan pursuant to subsection 2.1A(iii)(c), and (ii) second, Issuing Lenders due to the failure of any Revolving Lender to (A) fund a Revolving Loan for the purpose of repaying any unreimbursed amounts of a drawing under a Letter of Credit pursuant to subsection 3.3B or (B) fund a participation in any such unreimbursed Letter of Credit drawing pursuant to subsection 3.3C; provided, further, that in the event Company fails to specify the Loans to which any such prepayment shall be applied, and funds remain after being applied in accordance with this subsection 2.4B(iv)(a), such prepayment shall be applied first to repay outstanding Swing Line Loans to the full extent thereof, second to repay outstanding Revolving Loans to the full extent thereof, and third to repay outstanding Term Loans to the full extent thereof. Any voluntary prepayments of the Term Loans pursuant to subsection 2.4B(i) shall be applied to reduce the scheduled installments of principal of the Term Loans set forth in subsection 2.4A, first, to the next four scheduled installments in direct order of maturity, and then second, to all such remaining installments on a pro rata basis (in accordance with the respective outstanding principal amounts thereof) to each scheduled installment of principal of the Term Loans set forth in subsection 2.4A that is unpaid at the time of such prepayment.

(b) Application of Mandatory Prepayments of Type of Loans and the Scheduled Installments of Principal Thereof. Except as provided in subsection 2.4D, any amount required to be applied as a mandatory prepayment of the Loans pursuant to subsections 2.4B(iii)(a)-(e) shall be applied to prepay the Term Loans to the full extent thereof, second (but only if a Potential Event of Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such prepayment obligation), to the extent of any remaining portion of such amount, to prepay the Swing Line Loans to the full extent thereof, third, to the extent of any remaining portion of such amount, to prepay the Revolving Loans to the full extent thereof (but without any permanent reduction in commitment). Any mandatory prepayments of the Term Loans pursuant to subsection 2.4B(iii) shall be applied to reduce the scheduled installments of principal of the Term Loans set forth in subsection 2.4A, first, to the next four scheduled installments in direct order of maturity, and then second, to all such remaining installments on a pro rata basis (in accordance with the respective outstanding principal amounts thereof) to each scheduled installment of principal of the Term Loans set forth in subsection 2.4A that is unpaid at the time of such prepayment.

(c) Application of Prepayments to Base Rate Loans and Eurodollar Rate Loans. Considering Term Loans and Revolving Loans being prepaid separately, any prepayment thereof shall be applied first to Base Rate Loans to the full extent thereof before application to Eurodollar Rate Loans, in each case in a manner that minimizes the amount of any payments required to be made by Company pursuant to subsection 2.6D.

(i) Manner and Time of Payment. All payments by Company of principal, interest, fees and other Obligations shall be made in Dollars in same day funds, without defense, setoff or counterclaim, free of any restriction or condition, and delivered to Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the date due at the Funding and Payment Account for the account of Lenders; funds received by Administrative Agent after that time on such due date shall be deemed to have been paid by Company on the next succeeding Business Day. Company hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to charge its accounts with Administrative Agent in order to cause timely payment to be made to Administrative Agent of all principal, interest, fees and expenses due hereunder (subject to sufficient funds being available in its accounts for that purpose).

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

(iii) Apportionment of Payments. Aggregate principal and interest payments (including prepayments) in respect of Term Loans and Revolving Loans shall be apportioned among all outstanding Loans to which such payments relate, in each case proportionately to Lenders’ respective Pro Rata Shares; provided that all payments in respect of Revolving Loans shall first be applied in the following priority to repay any amounts owing to (i) first, Swing Line Lender due to the failure of any Revolving Lender to (A) fund a Revolving Loan for the purpose of repaying any Refunded Swing Line Loan pursuant to subsection 2.1A(iii)(b) or (B) purchase an assignment of an unpaid Swing Line Loan pursuant to subsection 2.1A(iii)(c), and (ii) second, Issuing Lenders due to the failure of any Revolving Lender to (A) fund a Revolving Loan for the purpose of repaying any unreimbursed amounts of a drawing under a Letter of Credit pursuant to subsection 3.3B or (B) fund a participation in any such unreimbursed Letter of Credit drawing pursuant to subsection 3.3C. Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to each Lender, at the account specified in the payment instructions delivered to Administrative Agent by such Lender, its Pro Rata Share of all such payments received by Administrative Agent and the commitment fees and letter of credit fees of such Lender, if any, when received by Administrative Agent pursuant to subsections 2.3 and 3.2. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this subsection 2.4C(iii), if, pursuant to the provisions of subsection 2.6C, any Notice of Conversion/Continuation is withdrawn as to any Affected Lender or if any Affected Lender makes Base Rate Loans in lieu of its Pro Rata Share of any Eurodollar Rate Loans, Administrative Agent shall give effect thereto in apportioning interest payments received thereafter.

(iv) Payments on Business Days. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day.

D. Application of Proceeds of Collateral and Payments after Event of Default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, if requested by Requisite Lenders, or upon acceleration of the Obligations pursuant to Section 8, (a) all payments received by Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, whether from Company or any Guarantor or otherwise, and (b) all proceeds received by Collateral Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral under any Collateral Document may, in the discretion of Administrative Agent, be held by Collateral Agent as Collateral for, and/or (then or at any time thereafter) applied in full or in part by Collateral Agent, in each case in the following order of priority:

(i) to the payment of all costs and expenses of such sale, collection or other realization, all other expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred by Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent in connection therewith, and all amounts for which Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent are entitled to compensation (including the fees described in subsection 2.3), reimbursement and indemnification under any Loan Document and all advances made by Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent thereunder for the account of the applicable Loan Party, and to the payment of all costs and expenses paid or incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with the Loan Documents in its capacity as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, all in accordance with subsections 9.4, 10.2 and 10.3 and the other terms of this Agreement and the Loan Documents;

(ii) thereafter, pro rata to the payment of all other Obligations and obligations of Loan Parties under any Hedge Agreement between a Loan Party and a Swap Counterparty for the ratable benefit of the holders thereof (subject to the provisions of subsection 2.4C(ii) hereof) and to cash collateralize any outstanding Letters of Credit that have not been fully cash collateralized;

(iii) thereafter, to the Second Lien Collateral Agent, in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement; and

(iv) thereafter, to the payment to or upon the order of such Loan Party or to whosoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

If any Letter of Credit which has been cash collateralized subsequently expires or is returned to the Letter of Credit Issuer partially or fully undrawn, any cash collateral held with respect to the undrawn portion of such Letter of Credit shall be returned to the Administrative Agent and applied in the order specified above.

A. Term Loans. The proceeds of the Term Loans shall be applied by Company to fund in part the Acquisition Financing Requirements.

B. Revolving Loans; Swing Line Loans. No Revolving Loans will be available to Company on the Closing Date to fund the Acquisition Financing Requirements. After the Closing Date, the proceeds of any Revolving Loans and any Swing Line Loans shall be applied by Company for working capital, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes, which may include the making of intercompany loans to any of Company’s wholly-owned Subsidiaries, in accordance with subsection 7.1(iv), for their own general corporate purposes.

C. Margin Regulations. No portion of the proceeds of any borrowing under this Agreement shall be used by Company or any of its Subsidiaries in any manner that might cause the borrowing or the application of such proceeds to violate Regulation U, Regulation T or Regulation X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or any other regulation of such Board or to violate the Exchange Act, in each case as in effect on the date or dates of such borrowing and such use of proceeds.

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

A. Determination of Applicable Interest Rate. On each Interest Rate Determination Date, Administrative Agent shall determine in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be conclusive and binding upon all parties) the interest rate that shall apply to the Eurodollar Rate Loans for which an interest rate is then being determined for the applicable Interest Period and shall promptly give notice thereof (in writing or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Company and each applicable Lender.

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

C. Illegality or Impracticability of Eurodollar Rate Loans. In the event that on any date (i) any Lender shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto but shall be made only after consultation with Company and Administrative Agent) that the making, maintaining or continuation of its Eurodollar Rate Loans has become unlawful as a result of compliance by such Lender in good faith with any law, treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order (or would conflict with any such treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order not having the force of law that would be complied with generally by similarly situated banks acting reasonably even though the failure to comply therewith would not be unlawful) or (ii) Administrative Agent is advised by the Requisite Lenders or the Requisite Class Lenders that the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (the “Affected Lenders”) of making or maintaining their Loans for such Interest Period. Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each other Lender of the receipt of such notice. Thereafter (a) the obligation of the Affected Lender to make Loans as, or to convert Loans to, Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until such notice shall be withdrawn by the Affected Lender, (b) to the extent such determination by the Affected Lender relates to a Eurodollar Rate Loan then being requested by Company pursuant to a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, the Affected Lender shall make such Loan as (or convert such Loan to, as the case may be) a Base Rate Loan, (c) the Affected Lender’s obligation to maintain its outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans (the “Affected Loans”) shall be terminated at the earlier to occur of the expiration of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the Affected Loans or when required by law, and (d) the Affected Loans shall automatically convert into Base Rate Loans on the date of such termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent a determination by an Affected Lender as described above relates to a Eurodollar Rate Loan then being requested by Company pursuant to a Notice of Borrowing or a

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

D. Compensation For Breakage or Non-Commencement of Interest Periods. Company shall compensate each Lender, upon written request by that Lender pursuant to subsection 2.8, for all reasonable losses, expenses and liabilities (including any interest paid by that Lender to lenders of funds borrowed by it to make or carry its Eurodollar Rate Loans and any loss, expense or liability sustained by that Lender in connection with the liquidation or re-employment of such funds but excluding any loss of anticipated profits) which that Lender may sustain: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by that Lender) a borrowing of any Eurodollar Rate Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or a telephonic request therefor, or a conversion to or continuation of any Eurodollar Rate Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Conversion/Continuation or a telephonic request therefor, (ii) if any prepayment or other principal payment or any conversion of any of its Eurodollar Rate Loans (including any prepayment or conversion occasioned by the circumstances described in subsection 2.6C) occurs on a date prior to the last day of an Interest Period applicable to that Loan, (iii) if any prepayment of any of its Eurodollar Rate Loans is not made on any date specified in a Notice of Prepayment given by Company, or (iv) as a consequence of any other default by Company in the repayment of its Eurodollar Rate Loans when required by the terms of this Agreement.

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

F. Assumptions Concerning Funding of Eurodollar Rate Loans. Calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under this subsection 2.6 and under subsection 2.7A shall be made as though that Lender had funded each of its Eurodollar Rate Loans through the purchase of a Eurodollar deposit bearing interest at the rate obtained pursuant to clause (i) of the definition of Eurodollar Rate in an amount equal to the amount of such Eurodollar Rate Loan and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period, whether or not its Eurodollar Rate Loans had been funded in such manner.

G. Eurodollar Rate Loans After Event of Default. After the occurrence of and during the continuation of an Event of Default, at the election of Administrative Agent or the Requisite Lenders, (i) Company may not elect to have a Loan be made or maintained as, or converted to, a Eurodollar Rate Loan after the expiration of any Interest Period then in effect for that Loan and (ii) subject to the provisions of subsection 2.6D, any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation given by Company with respect to a requested borrowing or conversion/continuation that has not yet occurred shall be deemed to be for a Base Rate Loan or, if the conditions to making a Loan set forth in subsection 4.2 cannot then be satisfied, to be rescinded by Company.

A. Compensation for Increased Costs. Subject to the provisions of subsection 2.7B (which shall be controlling with respect to the matters covered thereby), in the event that any Lender (including any Issuing Lender) shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that any Change in Law:

(i) subjects such Lender to any additional tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any of its obligations hereunder or thereunder (including with respect to issuing or maintaining any Letters of Credit or purchasing or maintaining any participations therein or maintaining any Commitment hereunder) or any payments to such Lender of principal, interest, fees or any other amount payable hereunder or thereunder (except for the imposition of, or any change in the rate of, any Excluded Tax payable by such Lender);

(ii) imposes, modifies or holds applicable, in the opinion of such Lender, any material reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, or advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender (other than any such reserve or other requirements with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans that are reflected in the definition of Eurodollar Rate); or

(iii) imposes any other condition (other than with respect to Taxes) on or affecting such Lender or its obligations hereunder or the London interbank market;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make, making or maintaining its Loans or Commitments or agreeing to issue, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or agreeing to purchase, purchasing or maintaining any participation therein or to reduce any amount received or receivable by such Lender with respect thereto; then, in any such case, Company shall promptly pay to such Lender, upon receipt of the statement referred to in subsection 2.8A, such additional amount or amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Lender in its sole discretion shall determine) as may be necessary to compensate such Lender on an after-tax basis for any such increased cost or reduction in amounts received or receivable hereunder and any tax incurred or payable by such Lender as a result of the obligation of Company to pay such additional amounts. Company shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this subsection 2.7A for any increased cost or reduction in respect of a period occurring more than nine months prior to the date on which such Lender notifies Company of such Change in Law and such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor, except, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased cost or reduction is retroactive, no such time limitation shall apply so long as such Lender requests compensation within nine months from the date on which the applicable Government Authority informed such Lender of such Change in Law.

(i) Payments To Be Free and Clear. Except as otherwise required by law, any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under this Agreement and any other Loan Documents shall be made free and clear of, and without any deduction or withholding on account of, any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes.

(ii) Grossing-up of Payments. If a Loan Party is required by law to make any deduction or withholding on account of any Indemnified Tax or Other Tax from any sum paid or payable by a Loan Party to Administrative Agent or any Lender under any of the Loan Documents:

(a) the applicable Loan Party shall notify Administrative Agent of any such requirement or any change in any such requirement as soon as the applicable Loan Party becomes aware of it;

(b) the applicable Loan Party shall make such deductions or withholdings and timely pay any such amount deducted to the relevant Government Authority when such amount is due, in accordance with applicable law;

(c) the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that, after making the required deductions or withholdings (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this subsection 2.7B), Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, receives on the due date a net sum equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been required or made; and

(d) within 30 days or, if not possible, as soon as reasonably practicable, after any payment of any Indemnified Tax or Other Tax, Company shall deliver to Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of an official receipt issued by the relevant Government Authority evidencing such payment or other document reasonably satisfactory to the other affected parties to evidence the payment and its remittance to the relevant Government Authority.

(iii) Indemnification by Company. Company shall indemnify Administrative Agent and each Lender, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this subsection 2.7B) payable by Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Government Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability, including a copy of the receipt or other reasonably satisfactory evidence of its demand, delivered to Company by a Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent), or by Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Company shall not be obligated to make payment to the Administrative Agent or a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.7B(iii) in respect of any penalties, “excess” interest (i.e., interest in excess of the applicable U.S. federal underpayment rate(s)) or expenses attributable to any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, to the extent such penalties, excess interest or expenses would not have been imposed or incurred but for (i) the failure of the Administrative Agent or such Lender to notify the Company within 180 days after the Administrative Agent or such Lender actually receives notice of the imposition of such taxes or (ii) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent or such Lender.

(a) any Foreign Lender shall deliver such forms or other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by Company or Administrative Agent as will enable Company or Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements;

(b) any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding of any Indemnified Tax with respect to payments hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall deliver to Company (with a copy to Administrative Agent), on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter if reasonably requested by Company or Administrative Agent), such properly completed and duly executed forms or other documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding;

(c) without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any Foreign Lender shall deliver to Company and Administrative Agent (in such number of original 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 if reasonably requested by Company or Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

(1) properly completed and duly executed original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN claiming eligibility for benefits of an income Tax treaty to which the United States is a party,

(2) properly completed and duly executed original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI,

(3) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption “portfolio interest” under Section 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code, (a) a duly executed certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (i) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code, (ii) a ten-percent shareholder, within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code, of Company or (iii) a controlled foreign corporation described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Internal Revenue Code and (b) properly completed and duly executed original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, or

(4) properly completed and duly executed original copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States federal withholding tax, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit Company and Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made, if any;

(d) without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any Foreign Lender that does not act or ceases to act for its own account with respect to any portion of any sums paid or payable to such Lender under any of the Loan Documents (for example, in the case of a typical participation by such Lender) shall deliver to Administrative Agent and Company (in such number of original copies as shall be requested by the recipient), on or prior to the date such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender, or on such later date when such Foreign Lender ceases to act for its own account with respect to any portion of any such sums paid or payable (and from time to time thereafter, if reasonably requested by Company or Administrative Agent):

(1) any duly executed and properly completed original copies of the forms and statements required to be provided by such Foreign Lender under clause (c) of subsection 2.7B(iv), to establish the portion of any such sums paid or payable with respect to which such Lender acts for its own account and may be entitled to an exemption from or a reduction of United States federal withholding tax, and

(2) original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or any successor forms) properly completed and duly executed by such Foreign Lender, together with information, if any, such Foreign Lender chooses to transmit with such form, and any other certificate or statement of exemption required under the Internal Revenue Code or the regulations thereunder, to establish that such Foreign Lender is not acting for its own account with respect to a portion of any such sums payable to such Foreign Lender;

(e) without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any Lender that is not a Foreign Lender and has not otherwise established to the reasonable satisfaction of Company and Administrative Agent that it is an exempt recipient (as defined in section 6049(b)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code and the United States Treasury Regulations thereunder) shall deliver to Company and Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be reasonably requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter as prescribed by applicable law or upon the reasonable request of Company or Administrative Agent), duly executed and properly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9; and

(f) without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Lender hereby agrees, from time to time after the initial delivery by such Lender of such forms, whenever a lapse in time or change in such Lender’s circumstances renders such forms, certificates or other evidence so delivered obsolete or inaccurate, that such Lender shall promptly (1) deliver to Administrative Agent and Company two original copies of renewals, amendments or additional or successor forms, properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, together with any other certificate or statement of exemption required in order to confirm or establish such Lender’s status or that such Lender is entitled to an exemption from or reduction in United States federal withholding tax with respect to payments to such Lender under the Loan Documents and, if applicable, that such Lender does not act for its own account with respect to any portion of such payment, or (2) notify Administrative Agent and Company of its inability to deliver any such forms, certificates or other evidence.

(v) If Administrative Agent, a Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes with respect to which Company has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay to Company an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by Company under this Section with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Government Authority with respect to such refund); provided that Company, upon the request of Administrative Agent or such Lender agrees to repay the amount paid over to Company (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Government Authority) to Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Government Authority; provided that in no event will the Administrative Agent nor any Lender be required to return any portion of a refund that would place such party in a worse net after Tax position than if the Indemnified Tax or Other Tax giving rise to such refund had never been imposed in the first instance. Nothing contained in this Section shall require Administrative Agent or any Lender (or assignee) to make available its Tax Returns or any other information which it deems confidential to Company or any other person.

(vi) If Company determines in good faith that a reasonable basis exists for contesting an Indemnified Tax or Other Tax with respect to which Company has paid an additional or indemnification amount under this Section, Administrative Agent or the applicable Lender shall cooperate with Company (but shall have no obligation to disclose any confidential information, unless reasonably satisfactory arrangements have been made to preserve the confidential nature of such information) in challenging such Indemnified Tax or Other Tax at Company’s expense if requested by Company; provided that the Administrative Agent or applicable Lender shall have no obligation to cooperate under this clause (vi) if such party reasonably determines that such cooperation (or challenge) would be materially disadvantageous to such party (it being understood and agreed that none of Administrative Agents or any Lender shall have any obligation to contest, or any responsibility for contesting any Tax).

(vii) Payment of Other Taxes by Company. Without limiting the other provisions of subsection 2.7B, Company shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Government Authorities in accordance with applicable law.

C. Capital Adequacy Adjustment. If any Lender shall have determined in good faith that any Change in Law regarding capital adequacy has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender as a consequence of, or with reference to, such Lender’s Loans or Commitments or Letters of Credit or participations therein or other obligations hereunder with respect to the Loans or the Letters of Credit to a level below that which such Lender or such controlling corporation could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration the policies of such Lender or such controlling corporation with regard to capital adequacy), then from time to time, within five Business Days after receipt by Company from such Lender of the statement referred to in subsection 2.8A, Company shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such controlling corporation on an after-tax basis for such reduction, increased to the extent necessary to take into account any tax incurred or payable by such Lender as a result of the obligation of Company to pay such additional amounts. Company shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this subsection 2.7C for any reduction in respect of a period occurring more than nine months prior to the date on which such Lender notifies Company of such Change in Law and such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor, except, if the Change in Law giving rise to such reduction is retroactive, no such time limitation shall apply so long as such Lender requests compensation within nine months from the date on which the applicable Government Authority informed such Lender of such Change in Law.

2.8 Statement of Lenders; Obligation of Lenders and Issuing Lenders To Mitigate.

A. Statements. Each Lender claiming compensation or reimbursement pursuant to subsection 2.6D, 2.7 or 2.8B shall deliver to Company (with a copy to Administrative Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis of the calculation of such compensation or reimbursement but such Lender shall not be required to disclose any confidential or proprietary information therein, which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error.

B. Mitigation. Each Lender and Issuing Lender agrees that, as promptly as practicable after the officer of such Lender or Issuing Lender responsible for administering the Loans or Letters of Credit of such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, becomes aware of the occurrence of an event or the existence of a condition that would cause such Lender to become an Affected Lender or that would entitle such Lender or Issuing Lender to receive payments under subsection 2.7, it will use reasonable efforts to make, issue, fund or maintain the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans or Letters of Credit of such Lender or Issuing Lender through another lending or letter of credit office of such Lender

or Issuing Lender, if (i) as a result thereof the circumstances which would cause such Lender to be an Affected Lender would cease to exist or the additional amounts which would otherwise be required to be paid to such Lender or Issuing Lender pursuant to subsection 2.7 would be materially reduced, and (ii) as determined by such Lender or Issuing Lender in its reasonable discretion, such action would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender or Issuing Lender; provided that such Lender or Issuing Lender will not be obligated to utilize such other lending or letter of credit office pursuant to this subsection 2.8B unless Company agrees to pay all reasonable incremental expenses incurred by such Lender or Issuing Lender as a result of utilizing such other lending or letter of credit office as described above.

If Company receives a statement of amounts due pursuant to subsection 2.8A from a Lender, a Revolving Lender defaults in its obligations to fund a Revolving Loan pursuant to this Agreement, a Lender (a “Non-Consenting Lender”) refuses to consent to an amendment, modification or waiver of this Agreement that, pursuant to subsection 10.6, requires consent of 100% of the Lenders or 100% of the Lenders with Obligations directly affected and which receives the consent of Requisite Lenders or a Lender becomes an Affected Lender (any such Lender, a “Subject Lender”), so long as (i) no Potential Event of Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and Company has obtained a commitment from another Lender or an Eligible Assignee to purchase at par the Subject Lender’s Loans and assume the Subject Lender’s Commitments and all other obligations of the Subject Lender hereunder, (ii) such Lender is not an Issuing Lender with respect to any Letters of Credit outstanding (unless all such Letters of Credit are terminated or arrangements acceptable to such Issuing Lender (such as a “back-to-back” letter of credit) are made) and (iii), if applicable, the Subject Lender is unwilling to withdraw the notice delivered to Company pursuant to subsection 2.8A and/or is unwilling to consent to such amendment, modification or waiver, and/or is unwilling to remedy its default upon 10 days prior written notice to the Subject Lender and Administrative Agent, Company may require the Subject Lender to assign all of its Loans and Commitments to such other Lender, Lenders, Eligible Assignee or Eligible Assignees pursuant to the provisions of subsection 10.1B; provided that, prior to or concurrently with such replacement, (1) the Subject Lender shall have received payment in full of all principal, interest, fees and other amounts (including all amounts under subsections 2.6D, 2.7 and/or 2.8B (if applicable)) through such date of replacement and a release from its obligations under the Loan Documents, (2) the processing fee required to be paid by subsection 10.1B(i) shall have been paid to Administrative Agent by Company or such assignee, (3) all of the requirements for such assignment contained in subsection 10.1B, including, without limitation, the consent of Administrative Agent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) (if required) and the receipt by Administrative Agent of an Assignment Agreement executed by the assignee (Administrative Agent being hereby authorized to execute any Assignment Agreement on behalf of a Subject Lender relating to the assignment of Loans and/or Commitments of such subject Lender) and other supporting documents, have been fulfilled, and (4) in the event such Subject Lender is a Non-Consenting Lender, each assignee shall consent, at the time of such assignment, to each matter in respect of which such Subject Lender was a Non-Consenting Lender and Company also requires each other Subject Lender that is a Non-Consenting Lender to assign its Loans and Commitments. For the avoidance of doubt, if a Lender is a Non-Consenting Lender solely because it refused to consent to an amendment, modification or waiver that required the consent of 100% of Lenders with Obligations directly affected thereby (which amendment, modification or waiver did not accordingly require the consent of 100% of all Lenders), the Loans and Commitments of such Non-Consenting Lender that are subject to the assignments required by this subsection 2.9 shall include only those Loans and Commitments that constitute the Obligations directly affected by the amendment, modification or waiver to which such Non-Consenting Lender refused to provide its consent. A Lender that has assigned its Loans and Commitments pursuant to this subsection 2.9 shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of subsections 2.6, 2.7 and 2.8 with respect to the periods during which such Person was a Lender.

3.1 Issuance of Letters of Credit and Lenders’ Purchase of Participations Therein.

A. Letters of Credit. Company may request, in accordance with the provisions of this subsection 3.1, from time to time during the period from the Closing Date to but excluding the 10^th Business Day prior to the Revolving Loan Commitment Termination Date, that one or more Revolving Lenders issue Letters of Credit payable on a sight basis for the account of Company for the general corporate purposes of Company or a Subsidiary of Company. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and in reliance upon the representations and warranties of Company herein set forth, any one or more Revolving Lenders may, but (except as provided in subsection 3.1B(ii)) shall not be obligated to, issue such Letters of Credit in accordance with the provisions of this subsection 3.1; provided that Company shall not request that any Revolving Lender issue (and no Revolving Lender shall issue):

(i) any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance, the Total Utilization of Revolving Loan Commitments would exceed the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount then in effect;

(ii) any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance, the Letter of Credit Usage would exceed $5,000,000;

(iii) any Standby Letter of Credit having an expiration date later than the earlier of (a) 10 Business Days prior to the Revolving Loan Commitment Termination Date and (b) the date which is one year from the date of issuance of such Standby Letter of Credit; provided that the immediately preceding clause (b) shall not prevent any Issuing Lender from agreeing that a Standby Letter of Credit will automatically be extended for one or more successive periods not to exceed one year each unless such Issuing Lender elects not to extend for any such additional period; and provided, further, that such Issuing Lender shall elect not to extend such Standby Letter of Credit if it has knowledge that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (and has not been waived in accordance with subsection 10.6) at the time such Issuing Lender must elect whether or not to allow such extension;

(iv) any Standby Letter of Credit issued for the purpose of supporting trade payables;

(v) any Commercial Letter of Credit having an expiration date (a) later than the earlier of (1) the date which is 10 Business Days prior to the Revolving Loan Commitment Termination Date and (2) the date which is 180 days from the date of issuance of such Commercial Letter of Credit or (b) that is otherwise unacceptable to the applicable Issuing Lender in its reasonable discretion; or

(i) Request for Issuance. Whenever Company desires the issuance of a Letter of Credit, it shall deliver to Administrative Agent a Request for Issuance no later than 12:00 Noon (New

York City time) at least three Business Days (in the case of Standby Letters of Credit) or five Business Days (in the case of Commercial Letters of Credit), or in each case such shorter period as may be agreed to by the Issuing Lender in any particular instance, in advance of the proposed date of issuance. The Issuing Lender, in its reasonable discretion, may require changes in the text of the proposed Letter of Credit or any documents described in or attached to the Request for Issuance. In furtherance of the provisions of subsection 10.8, and not in limitation thereof, Company may submit Requests for Issuance by telefacsimile and Administrative Agent and Issuing Lenders may rely and act upon any such Request for Issuance without receiving an original signed copy thereof. No Letter of Credit shall require payment against a conforming demand for payment to be made thereunder on the same business day (under the laws of the jurisdiction in which the office of the Issuing Lender to which such demand for payment is required to be presented is located) on which such demand for payment is presented if such presentation is made after 10:00 a.m. (in the time zone of such office of the Issuing Lender) on such business day.

Company shall notify the applicable Issuing Lender (and Administrative Agent, if Administrative Agent is not such Issuing Lender) prior to the issuance of any Letter of Credit in the event that any of the matters to which Company is required to certify in the applicable Request for Issuance is no longer true and correct as of the proposed date of issuance of such Letter of Credit, and upon the issuance of any Letter of Credit Company shall be deemed to have re-certified, as of the date of such issuance, as to the matters to which Company is required to certify in the applicable Request for Issuance.

(ii) Determination of Issuing Lender. Upon receipt by Administrative Agent of a Request for Issuance pursuant to subsection 3.1B(i) requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, in the event Administrative Agent elects to issue such Letter of Credit, Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify Company, and Administrative Agent shall be the Issuing Lender with respect thereto. In the event that Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, elects not to issue such Letter of Credit, Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify Company, whereupon Company may request any other Revolving Lender to issue such Letter of Credit by delivering to such Revolving Lender a copy of the applicable Request for Issuance. Any Revolving Lender so requested to issue such Letter of Credit shall promptly notify Company and Administrative Agent whether or not, in its sole discretion, it has elected to issue such Letter of Credit, and any such Revolving Lender that so elects to issue such Letter of Credit shall be the Issuing Lender with respect thereto. In the event that all other Revolving Lenders shall have declined to issue such Letter of Credit, notwithstanding the prior election of Administrative Agent not to issue such Letter of Credit, Administrative Agent shall be obligated to issue such Letter of Credit and shall be the Issuing Lender with respect thereto, notwithstanding the fact that the Letter of Credit Usage with respect to such Letter of Credit and with respect to all other Letters of Credit issued by Administrative Agent, when aggregated with Administrative Agent’s outstanding Revolving Loans and Swing Line Loans, may exceed the amount of Administrative Agent’s Revolving Loan Commitment then in effect.

(iii) Issuance of Letter of Credit. Upon satisfaction or waiver (in accordance with subsection 10.6) of the conditions set forth in subsection 4.3, the Issuing Lender shall issue the requested Letter of Credit in accordance with the Issuing Lender’s standard operating procedures.

(iv) Notification to Revolving Lenders. Upon the issuance of or amendment to any Standby Letter of Credit the applicable Issuing Lender shall promptly notify Administrative Agent and Company of such issuance or amendment in writing. Upon receipt of such notice (or, if Administrative Agent is the Issuing Lender, together with such notice), Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Lender in writing of such issuance or amendment and the amount of such Revolving Lender’s respective participation in such Standby Letter of Credit or amendment, and, if so requested by a Revolving Lender, Administrative Agent shall provide such Lender with a copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment. In

the case of Commercial Letters of Credit, in the event that Issuing Lender is other than Administrative Agent, such Issuing Lender will send by facsimile transmission to Administrative Agent, promptly upon the first Business Day of each week, a report of its daily aggregate maximum amount available for drawing under Commercial Letters of Credit for the previous week. Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Lender in writing on a quarterly basis of the contents thereof.

C. Revolving Lenders’ Purchase of Participations in Letters of Credit. Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby agrees to, have irrevocably purchased from the Issuing Lender a participation in such Letter of Credit and any drawings honored thereunder in an amount equal to such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the maximum amount that is or at any time may become available to be drawn thereunder

Company agrees to pay the following amounts with respect to Letters of Credit issued hereunder:

(i) with respect to each Letter of Credit, (a) a fronting fee, payable directly to the applicable Issuing Lender for its own account, equal to the greater of (X) $500 per annum and (Y) 0.125% per annum of the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit and (b) a letter of credit fee, payable to Administrative Agent for the account of Revolving Lenders, equal to the applicable Eurodollar Rate Margin for Revolving Loans plus, upon the application of increased rates of interest pursuant to subsection 2.2E, 2% per annum, multiplied by the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit, each such fronting fee or letter of credit fee to be payable in arrears on and to (but excluding) the last Business Day of each of March, June, September and December of each year and computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed; and

(ii) with respect to the issuance, amendment or transfer of each Letter of Credit and each payment of a drawing made thereunder (without duplication of the fees payable under clause (i) above), documentary and processing charges payable directly to the applicable Issuing Lender for its own account in accordance with such Issuing Lender’s standard schedule for such charges in effect at the time of such issuance, amendment, transfer or payment, as the case may be.

For purposes of calculating any fees payable under clause (i) of this subsection 3.2, (1) the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit shall be determined as of the close of business on any date of determination and (2) any amount described in such clauses which is denominated in a currency other than Dollars shall be valued based on the applicable Exchange Rate for such currency as of the applicable date of determination (such date to be determined at the discretion of Administrative Agent and/or the applicable Issuing Lender). Promptly upon receipt by Administrative Agent of any amount described in clause (i)(b) of this subsection 3.2, Administrative Agent shall distribute to each Revolving Lender its Pro Rata Share of such amount.

A. Responsibility of Issuing Lender with Respect to Drawings. In determining whether to honor any drawing under any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof, the Issuing Lender shall be responsible only to examine the documents delivered under such Letter of Credit with reasonable care so as to ascertain whether they appear on their face to be in accordance with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit.

B. Reimbursement by Company of Amounts Paid Under Letters of Credit. In the event an Issuing Lender has determined to honor a drawing under a Letter of Credit issued by it, such Issuing Lender shall immediately notify Company and Administrative Agent, and Company shall reimburse such Issuing Lender on or before the Business Day immediately following the date on which such drawing is honored (the “Reimbursement Date”) in an amount in Dollars (which amount, in the case of a payment under a Letter of Credit which is denominated in a currency other than Dollars, shall be calculated by reference to the applicable Exchange Rate thereof) or, at the option of such Issuing Lender, in the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in a currency other than Dollars, in such other currency and in same day funds equal to the amount of such payment; provided that, anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) unless Company shall have notified Administrative Agent and such Issuing Lender prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the date such drawing is honored that Company intends to reimburse such Issuing Lender for the amount of such payment with funds other than the proceeds of Revolving Loans, Company shall be deemed to have given a timely Notice of Borrowing to Administrative Agent requesting Revolving Lenders to make Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans on the Reimbursement Date in an amount in Dollars (which amount, in the case of a payment under a Letter of Credit which is denominated in a currency other than Dollars, shall be calculated by reference to the applicable Exchange Rate thereof) equal to the amount of such payment and (ii) subject to satisfaction or waiver of the conditions specified in subsection 4.2B, Revolving Lenders shall, on the Reimbursement Date, make Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans in the amount of such payment, the proceeds of which shall be applied directly by Administrative Agent to reimburse such Issuing Lender for the amount of such payment; and provided, further, that if for any reason proceeds of Revolving Loans are not received by such Issuing Lender on the Reimbursement Date in an amount equal to the amount of such payment, Company shall reimburse such Issuing Lender, on demand, in an amount in same day funds equal to the excess of the amount of such payment over the aggregate amount of such Revolving Loans, if any, which are so received. Nothing in this subsection 3.3B shall be deemed to relieve any Revolving Lender from its obligation to make Revolving Loans on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, and Company shall retain any and all rights it may have against any Revolving Lender resulting from the failure of such Revolving Lender to make such Revolving Loans under this subsection 3.3B.

(i) Payment by Revolving Lenders. In the event that Company shall fail for any reason to reimburse any Issuing Lender as provided in subsection 3.3B in an amount (calculated, in the case of a payment under a Letter of Credit denominated in a currency other than Dollars, by reference to the applicable Exchange Rate thereof) equal to the amount of any payment by such Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit issued by it, such Issuing Lender shall promptly notify Administrative Agent, who shall notify each other Revolving Lender of the unreimbursed amount of such honored drawing and of such other Revolving Lender’s respective participation therein based on such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share. Each Revolving Lender (other than such Issuing Lender) shall make available to Administrative Agent an amount equal to its respective participation, in Dollars and in same day funds, at the Funding and Payment Account, not later than 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the first Business Day after the date notified by Administrative Agent and Administrative Agent shall make available to such Issuing Lender in Dollars in same day funds, at the office of such Issuing Lender on such Business Day, the aggregate amount of the participation payments so received by Administrative Agent. In the event that any Revolving Lender fails to make available to Administrative Agent on such Business Day the amount of

such Revolving Lender’s participation in such Letter of Credit as provided in this subsection 3.3C, such Issuing Lender shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Revolving Lender together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate. Nothing in this subsection 3.3C shall be deemed to prejudice the right of Administrative Agent to recover, for the benefit of Revolving Lenders, from any Issuing Lender any amounts made available to such Issuing Lender pursuant to this subsection 3.3C in the event that it is determined by the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction that the payment with respect to a Letter of Credit by such Issuing Lender in respect of which such participation payments were made by Revolving Lenders constituted gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of such Issuing Lender.

(ii) Distribution to Lenders of Reimbursements Received from Company. In the event any Issuing Lender shall have been reimbursed by other Revolving Lenders pursuant to subsection 3.3C(i) for all or any portion of any payment by such Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit issued by it, and Administrative Agent or such Issuing Lender thereafter receives any payments from Company in reimbursement of such payment under the Letter of Credit, to the extent any such payment is received by such Issuing Lender, it shall distribute such payment to Administrative Agent, and Administrative Agent shall distribute to each other Revolving Lender that has paid all amounts payable by it under subsection 3.3C(i) with respect to such payment such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of all payments subsequently received by Administrative Agent or by such Issuing Lender from Company. Any such distribution shall be made to a Revolving Lender at the account specified in subsection 2.4C(iii).

(i) Payment of Interest by Company. Company agrees to pay to Administrative Agent, with respect to payments under any Letters of Credit issued by any Issuing Lender, interest on the amount paid by such Issuing Lender in respect of each such payment from the date a drawing is honored to but excluding the date such amount is reimbursed by Company (including any such reimbursement out of the proceeds of Revolving Loans pursuant to subsection 3.3B) at a rate equal to (a) for the period from the date such drawing is honored to but excluding the Reimbursement Date, the rate then in effect under this Agreement with respect to Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans and (b) thereafter, a rate which is 2% per annum in excess of the rate of interest otherwise payable under this Agreement with respect to Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans. Interest payable pursuant to this subsection 3.3D(i) shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which it accrues and shall be payable on demand or, if no demand is made, on the date on which the related drawing under a Letter of Credit is reimbursed in full.

(ii) Distribution of Interest Payments by Administrative Agent. Promptly upon receipt by Administrative Agent of any payment of interest pursuant to subsection 3.3D(i) with respect to a payment under a Letter of Credit, (a) Administrative Agent shall distribute to (x) each Revolving Lender (including the Revolving Lender that paid such drawing, out of the interest received by Administrative Agent in respect of the period from the date such drawing is honored to but excluding the date on which the applicable Issuing Lender is reimbursed for the amount of such payment (including any such reimbursement out of the proceeds of Revolving Loans pursuant to subsection 3.3B), the amount that such Revolving Lender would have been entitled to receive in respect of the letter of credit fee that would have been payable in respect of such Letter of Credit for such period pursuant to subsection 3.2 if no drawing had been honored under such Letter of Credit and (y) such Issuing Lender the amount, if any, remaining after payment of the amounts applied pursuant to the immediately preceding clause (x), and (b) in the event such Issuing Lender shall have been reimbursed by other Revolving Lenders pursuant to subsection 3.3C(i) for all or any portion of such payment, Administrative Agent shall distribute to each Revolving

Lender (including such Issuing Lender) that has paid all amounts payable by it under subsection 3.3C(i) with respect to such payment such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any interest received by Administrative Agent in respect of that portion of such payment so made by Revolving Lenders for the period from the date on which such Issuing Lender was so reimbursed to but excluding the date on which such portion of such payment is reimbursed by Company. Any such distribution shall be made to a Revolving Lender at the account specified in subsection 2.4C(iii).

E. Cash Collateralization. If Administrative Agent notifies Company at any time that the Letter of Credit Usage at such time exceeds 100% of the sublimit for Letters of Credit specified in subsection 3.1A(ii), then, within five Business Days after receipt of such notice, Company shall deposit in the Collateral Account established pursuant to the Security Agreement an amount equal to the amount by which the Letter of Credit Usage exceeds such sublimit, which amount shall constitute Collateral and be subject to the provisions of the Security Agreement. At such time as the Letter of Credit Usage shall be equal to or less than such sublimit, if no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such amount may, at the request of Company, be released to Company.

The obligation of Company to reimburse each Issuing Lender for payments under the Letters of Credit issued by it and to repay any Revolving Loans made by Revolving Lenders pursuant to subsection 3.3B and the obligations of Revolving Lenders under subsection 3.3C(i) shall be unconditional and irrevocable and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances including any of the following circumstances:

(ii) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right which Company or any Lender may have at any time against a beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Persons for whom any such transferee may be acting), any Issuing Lender or other Revolving Lender or any other Person or, in the case of a Revolving Lender, against Company, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transaction (including any underlying transaction between Company or one of its Subsidiaries and the beneficiary for which any Letter of Credit was procured);

(iii) any draft or other document presented under any Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;

(iv) payment by the applicable Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document which does not substantially comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit;

(v) any adverse change in the business, operations, properties, assets, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of Company or any of its Subsidiaries;

(vi) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by any party thereto;

(vii) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; or

(viii) the fact that an Event of Default or a Potential Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

provided, in each case, that payment by the applicable Issuing Lender under the applicable Letter of Credit shall not have constituted gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Issuing Lender under the circumstances in question (as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction).

A.

In order to induce Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to make the Loans, to induce Issuing Lenders to issue Letters of Credit and to induce Revolving Lenders to purchase participations therein, each of Holdings and Company represents and warrants to each Lender:

5.1 Organization, Powers, Corporate Structure, Qualification, Good Standing, Business and Subsidiaries.

A. Organization, Powers and Corporate Structure. Company is a corporation and Holdings is a limited liability company, each duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. Company and Holdings have all requisite power and authority to own and operate their respective properties, to carry on their business as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted, to enter into the Loan Documents and the Related Agreement to which they are a party and to carry out the transactions contemplated thereby.

B. Qualification and Good Standing. Holdings and Company are qualified to do business and in good standing in every jurisdiction wherever necessary to carry out their business and operations, except in jurisdictions where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing has not had and could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

C. Conduct of Business. Holdings, Company and their Subsidiaries are engaged only in the businesses permitted to be engaged in pursuant to subsection 7.9.

D. Subsidiaries. All of the Subsidiaries of Company and their jurisdictions of organization are identified in Schedule 5.1 annexed hereto, as said Schedule 5.1 may be supplemented from time to time pursuant to the provisions of subsection 6.1(xiv). The Capital Stock of each of the Subsidiaries of Company identified in Schedule 5.1 annexed hereto (as so supplemented) is duly authorized, validly issued and does not constitute Margin Stock. No material assessment with respect to any Capital Stock owned by any Loan Party is outstanding that has not been disclosed to Administrative Agent. Each of the Subsidiaries of Company identified in Schedule 5.1 annexed hereto (as so supplemented), other than the Inactive Subsidiaries, is a corporation, partnership, trust or limited liability company duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its respective jurisdiction of organization set forth therein, has all requisite power and authority to own and operate its properties and to carry on its business as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted, and is qualified to do business and in good standing in every jurisdiction where its assets are located and wherever necessary to carry out its business and operations, in each case except where failure to be so qualified or in good standing or a lack of such power and authority has not had and could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Schedule 5.1 annexed hereto (as so supplemented) correctly sets forth the ownership interest of Company and each of its Subsidiaries in each of the Subsidiaries of Company identified therein.

E. Inactive Subsidiaries. Each of the Subsidiaries identified on Schedule 5.1 annexed hereto as “Inactive Subsidiaries” (“Inactive Subsidiaries”) is an Immaterial Subsidiary, is not the owner of any registered United States Intellectual Property or any application therefor, and does not conduct any activity other than those incidental to such Inactive Subsidiary’s existence and, except as set forth on Schedule 5.1, holding Capital Stock of other Inactive Subsidiaries.

A. Authorization of Borrowing. The execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents and the Related Agreement have been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of each Loan Party that is a party thereto.

B. No Conflict. The execution, delivery and performance by Loan Parties of the Loan Documents and the Related Agreement to which they are parties and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents and the Related Agreement do not and will not (i) violate any provision of any law or any governmental rule or regulation applicable to Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries, the Organizational Documents of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries or any order, judgment or decree of any court or other Government Authority binding on Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries, (ii) conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute (with due notice or lapse of time or both) a default under any Contractual Obligation of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries, (iii) result in or require the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any of the properties or assets of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries (other than any Liens created under any of the Loan Documents in favor of Collateral Agent on behalf of Secured Parties and Liens created pursuant to the Second Lien Credit Agreement securing Second Lien Indebtedness), or (iv) require any approval of stockholders or any approval or consent of any Person under any Contractual Obligation of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries, except for such approvals or consents which will be obtained on or before the Closing Date and except, in the case of clauses (i) through (iv), to the extent such violation, conflict, Lien or failure to obtain such approval or consent could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

C. Governmental Consents. The execution, delivery and performance by Loan Parties of the Loan Documents and the Related Agreement to which they are parties and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents and the Related Agreement do not and will not require any Governmental Authorization, except as have been obtained or where the failure to obtain could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

D. Binding Obligation. Each of the Loan Documents and the Related Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by each Loan Party that is a party thereto and is the legally valid and binding obligation of such Person, enforceable against such Person in accordance with its respective terms, except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws relating to or limiting creditors’ rights generally or by equitable principles relating to enforceability.

Company has heretofore delivered to Lenders, at Lenders’ request, (i) the unaudited consolidated balance sheet of Company and its Subsidiaries for Fiscal Year 2006 and the related unaudited consolidated statements of income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows of Company and its Subsidiaries for such Fiscal Year, (ii) the unaudited consolidated balance sheet of Company and its Subsidiaries for the Fiscal Quarters ended March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31, 2006, and the related unaudited consolidated statements of income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows of Company and its Subsidiaries for each such Fiscal Quarter, and (iii) the other financial statements and information described in subsection 4.1D. Except as described on Schedule 5.3, all such statements consisting of historical financial information were prepared in conformity with GAAP and fairly present, in all material respects, the financial position (on a consolidated basis) of the entities described in such financial statements as at the respective dates thereof and the results of operations and cash flows (on a consolidated basis) of the entities described therein for each of the periods then ended; provided, that such unaudited financial statements, (A) do not include any information or notes not required by GAAP to be included in interim financial statements, (B) in the case of such quarterly financial statements are subject to normal year-end adjustments (which are not expected to be material), (C) need not have been reviewed by Company’s independent accounting firm as provided in Standards No. 100 or include information described in Item 303 or Item 305 of Regulation S-K of the Securities Act with respect to quarterly periods to the extent such information would otherwise be required to be filed in a quarterly report on Form 10-Q, and (D) are subject to the effects of the Restatement and Related Matters.

Since June 30, 2006, no event or change has occurred that has resulted in or evidences, either in any case or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

A. Title to Properties; Liens. Holdings and its Subsidiaries (i) have good, sufficient and legal title to (in the case of fee interests in real property), (ii) have valid leasehold interests in (in the case of leasehold interests in real or personal property), or (iii) own or have rights in (in the case of all other personal property), all of their respective material properties and assets, except for any defects therein which do not have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as permitted by this Agreement, all such properties and assets are free and clear of Liens.

As of the Closing Date, Schedule 5.5B annexed hereto contains a true, accurate and complete list of (i) all fee interests in any Real Property Assets and (ii) all leases, subleases or assignments of leases (together with all amendments, modifications, supplements, renewals or extensions of any thereof) affecting each Real Property Asset, regardless of whether a Loan Party is the landlord or tenant (whether directly or as an assignee or successor in interest) under such lease, sublease or assignment. Except as specified in Schedule 5.5B annexed hereto, each agreement listed in clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence is in full force and effect and Holdings does not have knowledge of any default that has occurred and is continuing thereunder except for any default that could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, and each such agreement constitutes the legally valid and binding obligation of each applicable Loan Party, enforceable against such Loan Party in accordance with its terms (except as enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws relating to or limiting creditors’ rights generally or by equitable principles) except where any lack of validity of enforceability of such agreement against such Loan Party could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

C. Intellectual Property. Except as set forth in Schedule 5.5C annexed hereto, as of the Closing Date, Holdings and its Subsidiaries own or have the right to use all Intellectual Property used in the conduct of their business as currently conducted, except where the failure to own or have such right to use in the aggregate could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Except as set forth in Schedule 5.5C annexed hereto, no claim has been asserted and is pending by any Person against Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries challenging or questioning the use of any such Intellectual Property or the validity of any such Intellectual Property, except for such claims that in the aggregate could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Except as set forth in Schedule 5.5C annexed hereto, to the knowledge of Holdings, the use of such Intellectual Property by Holdings and its Subsidiaries does not infringe on the rights of any Person, except for such infringements that, in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

Except as set forth in Schedule 5.6 annexed hereto, there are no Proceedings (whether or not purportedly on behalf of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries) at law or in equity, or before or by any court or other Government Authority (including any Environmental Claims) that are pending or, to the knowledge of Holdings, threatened against or affecting Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries or, to the knowledge of Holdings, any property of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries and that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Except as set forth in Schedule 5.6 annexed hereto, neither Holdings nor any of its Subsidiaries (i) is in violation of any applicable laws (including Environmental Laws) that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, or (ii) is subject to or in default with respect to any final judgments, writs, injunctions, decrees, rules or regulations of any court or other Government Authority that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

A. All Tax returns of Holdings, Company and each of their respective Subsidiaries required to be filed by any of them have been timely filed, and all Taxes shown on such Tax returns to be due and payable and all other Taxes that are due and payable by each such entity have been timely paid,

and each such entity has made adequate provisions in accordance with GAAP for taxes not yet due and payable, except for those failures to do any of the foregoing which could not, reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect. None of Holdings, Company nor any of their respective Subsidiaries are aware of any proposed Tax assessments that could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect. Holdings, Company and each of their respective Subsidiaries have complied with all their withholding Tax obligations, except for those failures to do so which could not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect.

B. None of Holdings, Company nor any of their respective Subsidiaries has ever been a party to any understanding or arrangement constituting a “tax shelter” within the meaning of Section 6662(d)(2)(C)(iii) of the Internal Revenue Code or within the meaning of Section 6111(c) or Section 6111(d) of the Internal Revenue Code as in effect immediately prior to the enactment of the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004, or has ever “participated” in a “reportable transaction” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011-4, except as could not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect.

The representations in the Merger Agreement that (A) are material to the interests of the Lenders and solely to the extent that Holdings has the right to terminate its obligations as a result of the breach thereof, are true and correct as of the date of the Merger Agreement and as of the Closing Date, as though made on and as of the Closing Date, and (B) are made as of a specific date shall be true and correct as of such date, in each case except where the failure of such representations or warranties to be true and correct (without giving effect to any limitation as to “Material Adverse Effect”, “in all material respects”, “in any material respect”, “material” or “materially” set forth in such representations and warranties) does not have and would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Merger MAC.

Neither Holdings nor any of its Subsidiaries is subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940 or under any other federal or state statute or regulation which may limit its ability to incur Indebtedness or which may otherwise render all or any portion of the Obligations unenforceable.

Neither Holdings nor any of its Subsidiaries is engaged principally, or as one of its important activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock.

Each Employee Benefit Plan that is intended to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code has received a determination letter from the

Internal Revenue Service that the plan is so qualified, and to the best of Holdings’ knowledge the plan has not been operated in any way that would result in the plan no longer being so qualified, except in each case where failures could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

B. No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that, when taken together with all other such ERISA Events for which liability is reasonably expected to occur, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

E. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.11E, as of the Closing Date neither Holdings, its Subsidiaries nor any of their ERISA Affiliates contribute to, or within the past six years has been obligated to contribute to, any Multiemployer Plan. Neither Holdings, its Subsidiaries nor any of their ERISA Affiliates has any potential liability for withdrawal from a Multiemployer Plan within the meaning of Section 4203 of ERISA that could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

F. Except as could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, as of the date hereof, Holdings and its Subsidiaries have made full payment when due of all required contributions to any Foreign Plan.

No broker’s or finder’s fee or commission will be payable with respect to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, and Company hereby indemnifies Lenders against, and agrees that it will hold Lenders harmless from, any claim, demand or liability for any such broker’s or finder’s fees alleged to have been incurred in connection herewith or therewith and any expenses (including reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of counsel) arising in connection with any such claim, demand or liability.

(i) Neither Holdings nor any of its Subsidiaries nor any of their respective Facilities or operations are subject to any outstanding written order, consent decree or settlement agreement with any Person relating to (a) any Environmental Law, (b) any Environmental Claim, or (c) any Hazardous Materials Activity that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect;

(ii) Neither Holdings nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any letter or request for information under Section 104 of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (42 U.S.C. § 9604) or any comparable state law that could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect;

(iii) There are and, to Holdings’ knowledge, have been no conditions, occurrences, or Hazardous Materials Activities that could reasonably be expected to form the basis of an Environmental Claim against Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect;

(iv) Neither Holdings nor any of its Subsidiaries nor, to Holdings’ knowledge, any predecessor of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries has filed any notice under any Environmental Law indicating material Hazardous Materials treatment activity at any Facility that would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect; and

(v) Compliance with all current Environmental Laws would not, individually or in the aggregate, be reasonably expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

There is no strike or work stoppage in existence or threatened involving Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries that could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

Holdings and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis are and, upon the incurrence of any Obligations by such Loan Party on any date on which this representation is made, will be, Solvent.

A. Governmental Authorizations. No authorization, approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any Government Authority is required for either (i) the pledge or grant by any Loan Party of the Liens purported to be created in favor of Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to any of the Collateral Documents or (ii) the exercise by Collateral Agent of any rights or remedies in respect of any Collateral (whether specifically granted or created pursuant to any of the Collateral Documents or created or provided for by applicable law), except for filings or recordings contemplated by the Collateral Documents and except as may be required, in connection with the disposition of any Collateral, by laws generally affecting the offering and sale of securities.

B. Margin Regulations. The pledge of the Collateral pursuant to the Collateral Documents does not violate Regulation T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

Each Additional Mortgage, if any, is effective to create, in favor of the Collateral Agent, for its benefit and the benefit of the Secured Parties, legal, valid and enforceable First Priority Liens on, and security interests in, all of the Loan Parties’ right, title and interest in and to the Additional Mortgaged Properties thereunder and the proceeds thereof, and when such First Priority Mortgage is filed in the offices specified in the local counsel opinion delivered with respect thereto in accordance with the provisions of subsection 6.9), the Additional Mortgages shall constitute fully perfected First Priority Liens on, and First Priority security interests in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in the Additional Mortgaged Properties and the proceeds thereof.

No representation or warranty made by Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries in any Loan Document or in any other document, certificate or written statement furnished to Lenders by or on behalf of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries for use in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, when taken as a whole, and excluding any projected financial information or general industry data contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact (known to Company, in the case of any document not furnished by it) necessary in order to make the statements contained herein or therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which the same were made. Any projections and pro forma financial information contained in such materials are based upon good faith estimates and assumptions believed by Company to be reasonable at the time made, it being recognized by Lenders that such projections as to future events are not to be viewed as facts and that actual results during the period or periods covered by any such projections may differ from the projected results.

A. Delivery. Company has delivered to Administrative Agent complete and correct copies of the Second Lien Credit Agreement, all exhibits and schedules thereto as of the date hereof, and all “Loan Documents” as defined therein.

Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, amend the Second Lien Credit Agreement or any Loan Document (as such term is defined in the Second Lien Credit Agreement) or otherwise change the terms of the Second Lien Indebtedness, if the effect of such amendment or change is to change (to earlier dates) any dates upon which payments of principal or interest are due thereon, change any event of default (other than to eliminate any such event of default or increase any grace period related thereto (it being understood that any change to the covenants that otherwise complies with this subsection 7.10B shall not be deemed to be an amendment to the events of default applicable thereto), add any financial maintenance covenant, change the prepayment provisions thereof in a manner not adverse to the lenders under the Second Lien Credit Agreement, or change any collateral therefor (other than in accordance with the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement), or if the effect of such amendment or change, together with all other amendments or changes made, is to increase materially the obligations of the obligor thereunder or to confer any additional rights on the holders of such Second Lien Indebtedness (or the Second Lien Administrative Agent or any other agent on their behalf) that would be materially adverse to Company or Lenders.

Any amounts described in clause (b) above, when received by Administrative Agent, shall be held by Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of the Security Agreement and shall be applied as therein provided.

A. Appointment of Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent. DB is hereby appointed Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and DB hereby accepts such appointment (references to Administrative Agent in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to include Administrative Agent in the capacity of Collateral Agent). Each Lender (including any Lender in its capacity as a counterparty to a Hedge Agreement with Company or one of its Subsidiaries) hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to act as its agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. DB agrees to act upon the express conditions contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, as applicable. The provisions of this Section 9 are solely for the benefit of Agents and Lenders and no Loan Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions thereof. In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement, Administrative Agent (other than as provided in subsection 2.1D) shall act solely as an agent of Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation towards or relationship of agency or trust with or for Company or any other Loan Party.

Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact appointed by Administrative Agent in its sole discretion. Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of the duties of Administrative Agent and exercise the rights and powers of Administrative Agent by or through their respective Affiliates and the partners, directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors of such Person and of such Person’s Affiliates (“Related Parties”). The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent.

B. Appointment of Supplemental Collateral Agents. It is the purpose of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that there shall be no violation of any law of any jurisdiction denying or restricting the right of banking corporations or associations to transact business as agent or trustee in such jurisdiction. It is recognized that in case of litigation under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and in particular in case of the enforcement of any of the Loan Documents, or in case Administrative Agent deems that by reason of any present or future law of any jurisdiction it may not exercise any of the rights, powers or remedies granted herein or in any of the other Loan Documents or take any other action which may be desirable or necessary in connection therewith, it may be necessary that Administrative Agent appoint an additional individual or institution as a separate trustee, co-trustee, collateral agent or collateral co-agent (any such additional individual or institution being referred to herein individually as a “Supplemental Collateral Agent” and collectively as “Supplemental Collateral Agents”).

In the event that Administrative Agent appoints a Supplemental Collateral Agent with respect to any Collateral, (i) each and every right, power, privilege or duty expressed or intended by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to be exercised by or vested in or conveyed to Administrative Agent with respect to such Collateral shall be exercisable by and vest in such Supplemental Collateral Agent to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to enable such Supplemental Collateral Agent to exercise such rights, powers and privileges with respect to such Collateral and to perform such duties with respect to such Collateral, and every covenant and obligation contained in the Loan Documents and necessary to the exercise or performance thereof by such Supplemental Collateral Agent shall run to and be enforceable by either Administrative Agent or such Supplemental Collateral Agent, and (ii) the provisions of this Section 9 and of subsections 10.2 and 10.3 that refer to Administrative Agent shall inure to the benefit of such Supplemental Collateral Agent and all references therein to Administrative Agent shall be deemed to be references to Administrative Agent and/or such Supplemental Collateral Agent, as the context may require.

Should any instrument in writing from Company or any other Loan Party be required by any Supplemental Collateral Agent so appointed by Administrative Agent for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to him or it such rights, powers, privileges and duties, Company shall, or shall cause such Loan Party to, execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all such instruments promptly upon request by Administrative Agent. In case any Supplemental Collateral Agent, or a successor thereto, shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of such Supplemental Collateral Agent, to the extent permitted by law, shall vest in and be exercised by Administrative Agent until the appointment of a new Supplemental Collateral Agent.

C. Control. Each Lender and Administrative Agent hereby appoint each other Lender as agent for the purpose of perfecting Administrative Agent’s security interest in assets that, in accordance with the UCC, can be perfected by possession or control.

A. Powers; Duties Specified. Each Lender irrevocably authorizes Administrative Agent to take such action on such Lender’s behalf and to exercise such powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents as are specifically delegated or granted to Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers, rights and remedies as are reasonably incidental thereto. Administrative Agent shall have only those duties and responsibilities that are expressly specified in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Administrative Agent may exercise such powers, rights and remedies and perform such duties by or through its agents or employees. Administrative Agent shall not have, by reason of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender or Company; and nothing in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon Administrative Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents except as expressly set forth herein or therein.

B. No Responsibility for Certain Matters. No Agent shall be responsible to any Lender for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectibility or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for any representations, warranties, recitals or statements made herein or therein or made in any written or oral statements or in any financial or other statements, instruments, reports or certificates or any other documents furnished or made by such Agent to Lenders or by or on behalf of Company to such Agent or any Lender in connection with the Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby or for the financial condition or business affairs of Company or any other Person liable for the payment of any Obligations, nor shall such Agent be required to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, provisions, covenants or agreements contained in any of the Loan Documents or as to the use of the proceeds of the Loans or the use of the Letters of Credit or as to the existence or possible existence of any Event of Default or Potential Event of Default. Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, Administrative Agent shall not have any liability arising from confirmations of the amount of outstanding Loans or the Letter of Credit Usage or the component amounts thereof.

C. Exculpatory Provisions. No Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable to Lenders for any action taken or omitted by such Agent under or in connection with any of the Loan Documents except to the extent caused by such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. An Agent shall be entitled to refrain from any act or the taking of any action (including the failure to take an action) in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or from the exercise of any power, discretion or authority vested in it hereunder or thereunder unless and until such Agent shall have received instructions in respect thereof from Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such instructions under subsection 10.6) and, upon receipt of such instructions from Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders, as the case may be), such Agent shall be entitled to act or (where so instructed) refrain from acting, or to exercise such power, discretion or authority, in accordance with such instructions; provided that no Agent shall be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose such Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law. Without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, (i) each Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any communication (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution), instrument or document believed by it

to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper person or persons, and shall be entitled to rely and shall be protected in relying on opinions and judgments of attorneys (who may be attorneys for Company and its Subsidiaries), accountants, experts and other professional advisors selected by it; and (ii) no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against an Agent as a result of such Agent acting or (where so instructed) refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in accordance with the instructions of Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such instructions under subsection 10.6).

D. Agents Entitled To Act as Lender. The agency hereby created shall in no way impair or affect any of the rights and powers of, or impose any duties or obligations upon, an Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender hereunder. With respect to its participation in the Loans and the Letters of Credit, an Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not performing the duties and functions delegated to it hereunder, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” or any similar term shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include each Agent in its individual capacity. An Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of commercial banking, investment banking, trust, financial advisory or other business with Company or any of its Affiliates as if it were not performing the duties specified herein, and may accept fees and other consideration from Company for services in connection with this Agreement and otherwise without having to account for the same to Lenders.

9.3 Independent Investigation by Lenders; No Responsibility for Appraisal of Creditworthiness.

Each Lender agrees that it has made its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of Company and its Subsidiaries in connection with the making of the Loans and the issuance of Letters of Credit hereunder and that it has made and shall continue to make its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of Company and its Subsidiaries. No Agent shall have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to make any such investigation or any such appraisal on behalf of Lenders or to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making of the Loans or at any time or times thereafter, and no Agent shall have any responsibility with respect to the accuracy of or the completeness of any information provided to Lenders.

Each Lender, in proportion to its Pro Rata Share, severally agrees to indemnify each Agent and its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys, professional advisors and Affiliates to the extent that any such Person shall not have been reimbursed by Company (and without limiting Company’s obligation to do so), for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including counsel fees and disbursements and fees and disbursements of any financial advisor engaged by Agents) or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against an Agent or such other Person in exercising the powers, rights and remedies of an Agent or performing duties of an Agent hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or otherwise in its capacity as Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; provided that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of an Agent resulting solely from such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. If any indemnity furnished to an Agent or

any other such Person for any purpose shall, in the opinion of such Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, such Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished.

9.5 Resignation of Agents; Successor Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and Swing Line Lender.

A. Resignation; Successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent. Any Agent may resign at any time by giving 30 days’ prior written notice thereof to Lenders and Company. Upon any such notice of resignation by Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, Requisite Lenders shall have the right, upon five Business Days’ notice to Company, to appoint a successor Agent; provided that in the case of a successor Administrative Agent, Company shall have consented thereto (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and shall not be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing). If no such successor shall have been so appointed by Requisite Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, the retiring Agent may, on behalf of Lenders, appoint a successor Agent. If such Agent shall notify Lenders and Company that no Person has accepted such appointment as successor Agent, such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such Agent’s notice and (i) the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents, except that any Collateral held by Collateral Agent will continue to be held by it until a Person shall have accepted the appointment of successor Collateral Agent, and (ii) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through such Agent shall instead be made by, to or through each Lender directly, until such time as Requisite Lenders appoint a successor Agent in accordance with this subsection 9.5A. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, that successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement (if not already discharged as set forth above). After any retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Section 9 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was an Agent under this Agreement.

B. Successor Swing Line Lender. Any resignation of Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection 9.5A shall also constitute the resignation of DB or its successor as Swing Line Lender, and any successor Administrative Agent appointed pursuant to subsection 9.5A shall, upon its acceptance of such appointment, become the successor Swing Line Lender for all purposes hereunder. In such event (i) Company shall prepay any outstanding Swing Line Loans made by the retiring Administrative Agent in its capacity as Swing Line Lender, (ii) upon such prepayment, the retiring Administrative Agent and Swing Line Lender shall surrender any Swing Line Note held by it to Company for cancellation, and (iii) if so requested by the successor Administrative Agent and Swing Line Lender in accordance with subsection 2.1E, Company shall issue a Swing Line Note to the successor Administrative Agent and Swing Line Lender substantially in the form of Exhibit VII annexed hereto, in the amount of the Swing Line Loan Commitment then in effect and with other appropriate insertions.

Each Lender (which term shall include, for purposes of this subsection 9.6, any Swap Counterparty) hereby further authorizes Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, on behalf of and for the benefit of Lenders, to enter into each Collateral Document as secured party and the Intercreditor Agreement, and to be the agent for and representative of Lenders under each Guaranty. Each Lender agrees to be bound by the terms of each Collateral Document, the Intercreditor Agreement and the Guaranty;

provided that Collateral Agent shall not (i) enter into or consent to any material amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision contained in any Collateral Document, the Intercreditor Agreement or the Guaranty or (ii) release any Collateral (except as otherwise expressly permitted or required pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or the applicable Collateral Document), in each case without the prior consent of Requisite Lenders (or, if required pursuant to subsection 10.6, all Lenders); provided further, however, that, without further written consent or authorization from Lenders, Collateral Agent may execute any documents or instruments necessary to (a) release any Lien encumbering any item of Collateral that is the subject of a sale or other disposition of assets permitted by this Agreement or to which Requisite Lenders (or such greater number of Lenders as may be required pursuant to subsection 10.6) have otherwise consented, (b) release any Guarantor from the Guaranty if the Capital Stock of such Guarantor is sold to any Person (other than an Affiliate of Company) such that it no longer constitutes a Subsidiary pursuant to a sale or other disposition permitted hereunder or to which Requisite Lenders have (or such greater number of Lenders as may be required by subsection 10.6) otherwise consented or (c) subordinate the Liens of Collateral Agent, on behalf of Lenders, to any Liens permitted by clauses (ii) and (iii) of subsection 7.2A; provided that, in the case of a sale of such item of Collateral or stock referred to in subdivision (a) or (b), the requirements of subsection 10.14 are satisfied. Further, each Lender acknowledges that certain rights and remedies under the Loan Documents are subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement. Anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, Company, Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and each Lender hereby agree that (1) no Lender shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral under any Collateral Document or to enforce any Guaranty or the Intercreditor Agreement, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under the Collateral Documents, the Intercreditor Agreement and the Guaranty may be exercised solely by Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent for the benefit of Lenders in accordance with the terms thereof, and (2) in the event of a foreclosure by Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale, Administrative Agent or any Lender may be the purchaser of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale and Administrative Agent, as agent for and representative of Lenders (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities unless Requisite Lenders shall otherwise agree in writing) shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such public sale, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any Collateral payable by Administrative Agent at such sale.

To the extent that any Lender is identified in this Agreement as a co-agent, documentation agent or syndication agent, such Lender shall not have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of such Lenders shall have or be deemed to have a fiduciary relationship with any Lender.

In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to Company or any of the Subsidiaries of Company, Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on Company) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise

(i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and any other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of Lenders and Agents (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Lenders and Agents and their agents and counsel and all other amounts due Lenders and Agents under subsections 2.3, 10.2 and 10.3) allowed in such judicial proceeding, and

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

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to Administrative Agent and, in the event that Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to Lenders, to pay to Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Agents and their agents and counsel, and any other amounts due Agents under subsections 2.3, 10.2 and 10.3.

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

10.1 Successors and Assigns; Assignments and Participations in Loans and Letters of Credit.

A. General. This Agreement shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and the successors and assigns of Lenders (it being understood that Lenders’ rights of assignment are subject to the further provisions of this subsection 10.1). Neither Company’s rights or obligations hereunder nor any interest therein may be assigned or delegated by Company without the prior written consent of all Lenders (and any attempted assignment or transfer by Company without such consent shall be null and void). No sale, assignment or transfer or participation of any Letter of Credit or any participation therein may be made separately from a sale, assignment, transfer or participation of a corresponding interest in the Revolving Loan Commitment and the Revolving Loans of the Revolving Lender effecting such sale, assignment, transfer or participation. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, except as provided in subsection 2.1A(iii) and subsection 10.5, the Swing Line Loan Commitment and the Swing Line Loans of Swing Line Lender may not be sold, assigned or transferred as described below to any Person other than a successor Administrative Agent and Swing Line Lender to the extent contemplated by subsection 9.5. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Affiliates of each of Administrative Agent and Lenders and Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(i) Amounts and Terms of Assignments. Any Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or any portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement; provided that (a), except (1) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement or (2) in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund of a Lender, the aggregate amount of the Revolving Loan Exposure or Term Loan Exposure, as the case may be, of the assigning Lender and the assignee subject to each such assignment shall not be less than $1,000,000 (aggregating concurrent assignments to or by two or more Affiliated Funds for the purposes of determining such minimum amount), unless each of Administrative Agent and, so long as no Potential Event of Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Company otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), (b) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans or Commitments assigned, and any assignment of all or any portion of a Revolving Loan Commitment, Revolving Loan or Letter of Credit participation shall be made only as an assignment of the same proportionate part of the assigning Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment, Revolving Loans and Letter of Credit participations, (c) the parties to each assignment shall (A) electronically execute and deliver to Administrative Agent an Assignment Agreement via an electronic settlement system acceptable to Administrative Agent or (B) manually execute and deliver to Administrative Agent an Assignment Agreement, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (unless the assignee is an Affiliate or an Approved Fund of the assignor, in which case no fee shall be required, and provided that only one such processing and recordation fee shall be required in connection with concurrent assignments to or by two or more Affiliated Funds), and the Eligible Assignee, if it shall not already be a party to this Agreement, shall deliver to Administrative Agent information reasonably requested by Administrative Agent, including an administrative questionnaire and such forms, certificates or other evidence, if any, with respect to United States federal income Tax withholding matters as the assignee under such Assignment Agreement may be required to deliver to Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection 2.7B(iv) and with respect to information requested under the Patriot Act, and (d) (1) Administrative Agent, (2) with respect to assignments of Revolving Loans and Revolving Loan Commitments, any Issuing Lender and Swing Line Lender and (3) if no Potential Event of Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Company, shall have consented thereto (which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that no consent of Company shall be required (I) in the case of any assignment to a Lender, any Affiliate of a Lender or any Approved Fund of a Lender and (II) in connection with any assignment relating to the primary allocation or syndication of the Loans and Commitments by DB to Persons that are either organized under the laws of the United States or are qualified to do business in one or more states of the United States so long as such assignment is made in consultation with Company; provided, further, that no consent of Administrative Agent shall be required in the case of any assignment of Term Loans to a Lender, any Affiliate of a Lender or any Approved Fund of a Lender.

Upon acceptance and recording by Administrative Agent pursuant to clause (ii) below, from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment Agreement, (y) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment Agreement, shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and shall be deemed to have made all of the agreements of a Lender contained in the Loan Documents arising out of or otherwise related to such rights and obligations and (z) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment Agreement, relinquish its rights (other than any rights which survive the termination of this Agreement under subsection 10.9B) and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an

Assignment Agreement covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto; provided that, anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, if such Lender is an Issuing Lender such Lender shall continue to have all rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender until the cancellation or expiration of any Letters of Credit issued by it and the reimbursement of any amounts drawn thereunder). The assigning Lender shall, upon the effectiveness of such assignment or as promptly thereafter as practicable, surrender its Notes, if any, to Administrative Agent for cancellation, and thereupon new Notes shall, if so requested by the assignee and/or the assigning Lender in accordance with subsection 2.1E, be issued to the assignee and/or to the assigning Lender, substantially in the form of Exhibit V or Exhibit VI annexed hereto, as the case may be, with appropriate insertions, to reflect the amounts of the new Commitments and/or outstanding Revolving Loans and/or outstanding Term Loans, as the case may be, of the assignee and/or the assigning Lender. Other than as provided in subsection 2.1A(iii) and subsection 10.5, any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection 10.1B shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection 10.1C.

(ii) Acceptance by Administrative Agent; Recordation in Register. Upon its receipt of an Assignment Agreement executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee representing that it is an Eligible Assignee, together with the processing and recordation fee referred to in subsection 10.1B(i) and any forms, certificates or other evidence with respect to United States federal income Tax withholding matters that such assignee may be required to deliver to Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection 2.7B(iv), Administrative Agent shall, if Administrative Agent and Company have consented to the assignment evidenced thereby (in each case to the extent such consent is required pursuant to subsection 10.1B(i)), (a) accept such Assignment Agreement by executing a counterpart thereof as provided therein (which acceptance shall evidence any required consent of Administrative Agent to such assignment) and (b) record the information contained therein in the Register. Administrative Agent shall maintain a copy of each Assignment Agreement delivered to and accepted by it as provided in this subsection 10.1B(ii). No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this clause (ii).

(iii) Deemed Consent by Company. If the consent of Company to an assignment or to an Eligible Assignee is required hereunder (including a consent to an assignment which does not meet the minimum assignment thresholds specified in subsection 10.1B(i)), Company shall be deemed to have given its consent five Business Days after the date written notice thereof has been delivered by the assigning Lender (through Administrative Agent or the electronic settlement system used in connection with any such assignment) unless such consent is expressly refused by Company prior to such fifth Business Day.

(iv) Special Purpose Funding Vehicles. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”), identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to Administrative Agent and Company, the option to provide to Company all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to Company pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to make any Loan, and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. Nothing in this clause (iv) shall relieve the Granting Lender from its obligations under the Loan Documents except to the extent any such obligation is fully performed by the SPC. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender.

Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the Granting Lender). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under the laws of the United States or any state thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this subsection 10.1B(iv), any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, Company and Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to the Granting Lender or to any financial institutions (consented to by Company and Administrative Agent) providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the account of such SPC to support the funding or maintenance of Loans and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC. Company agrees that each SPC shall be entitled to the benefits of subsection 2.7 (subject to the requirements and limitations of that subsection) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection 10.1B. A SPC shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under subsection 2.7 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the interest granted to such SPC unless the grant of the interest to such SPC is made with Company’s prior written consent or the right to a greater payment results from a change in law after the SPC acquires its interest. This subsection 10.1B(iv) may not be amended without the written consent of the SPC.

(1) Any Lender may, without the consent of, or notice to, Company or Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more Persons (other than a natural Person or Company or any of its Affiliates) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement; 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) Company, 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. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver directly affecting (i) an extension of the scheduled final maturity date of any Loan allocated to such participation, (ii) a reduction of the principal amount of or the rate of interest payable on any Loan allocated to such participation or (iii) an increase in the Commitment allocated to such participation. Subject to the further provisions of this subsection 10.1C, Company agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of subsections 2.6D and 2.7 (subject to the requirements and limitations of those subsections) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection 10.1B. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of subsection 10.4 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to subsection 10.5 as though it were a Lender. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under subsections 2.6D and 2.7 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with Company’s prior written consent or the right to a greater payment results from a change in law after the Participant becomes a Participant.

(2) Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Company, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts of each participant’s interest in the Loans held by it (the “Participant Register”). 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 Loan or other obligation hereunder as the owner thereof for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. Any such Participant Register shall be available for inspection by Administrative Agent at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

D. Pledges and Assignments. Any Lender may, without the consent of Company or Administrative Agent, at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its Loans, and the other Obligations owed to such Lender, to secure obligations of such Lender, including without limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to any Federal Reserve Bank and, in the case of any Lender that is a Fund, any pledge or assignment to any holders of obligations owed, or securities issued by such Lender, including to any trustee for, or any other representative of, such holders; provided that (i) no Lender shall be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as a result of any such assignment or pledge and (ii) in no event shall any assignee or pledgee be considered to be a “Lender” or be entitled to require the assigning Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder.

E. Information. Each Lender may furnish any information concerning Company and its Subsidiaries in the possession of that Lender from time to time to assignees and participants (including prospective assignees and participants), subject to subsection 10.19.

F. Agreements of Lenders. Each Lender listed on the signature pages hereof hereby agrees, and each Lender that becomes a party hereto pursuant to an Assignment Agreement shall be deemed to agree, (i) that it is an Eligible Assignee described in clause (ii) of the definition thereof; (ii) that it has experience and expertise in the making of or purchasing loans such as the Loans; and (iii) that it will make or purchase its Loans for its own account in the ordinary course and without a view to distribution of such Loans within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or other federal securities laws (it being understood that, subject to the provisions of this subsection 10.1, the disposition of such Loans or any interests therein shall at all times remain within its exclusive control). Each Lender that becomes a party hereto pursuant to an Assignment Agreement shall also be deemed to represent that such Assignment Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Lender, enforceable against such Lender in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity.

G. Ineligible Assignees. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement, no Lender will assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement, or sell participations in its rights and/or obligations under this Agreement, to any Person who is (i) listed on the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List maintained by the U.S. Department of Treasury Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) and/or on any other similar list maintained by OFAC pursuant to any authorizing statute, executive order or regulation or (ii) either (A) included within the term “designated national” as defined in the Cuban Assets Control Regulations, 31 C.F.R. Part 515 or (B) designated under Section 1(a), 1(b), 1(c) or 1(d) of Executive Order No. 13224, 66 Fed. Reg. 49079 (published September 25, 2001) or similarly designated under any related enabling legislation or any other similar executive orders.

Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated, Company agrees to pay promptly: (i) all reasonable costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent, including reasonable attorney’s fees (including allocated costs of internal counsel) in connection with the negotiation, preparation and execution of the Loan Documents and any consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications thereto; (ii) all costs and expenses of furnishing all opinions by counsel for Company (including any opinions requested by Agents or Lenders as to any legal matters arising hereunder) and of Company’s performance of and compliance with all agreements and conditions on its part to be performed or complied with under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents including with respect to confirming compliance with environmental, insurance and solvency requirements; (iii) all reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of counsel to Administrative Agent (including allocated costs of internal counsel) in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution and administration of the Loan Documents and any consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications thereto and any other documents or matters requested by Company; (iv) all costs and expenses of creating and perfecting Liens in favor of Collateral Agent on behalf of Lenders pursuant to any Collateral Document, including filing and recording fees, expenses and taxes, stamp or documentary taxes, search fees, title insurance premiums, and reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of counsel to Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and of counsel providing any opinions that Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or Requisite Lenders may request in respect of the Collateral Documents or the Liens created pursuant thereto; (v) all costs and expenses (including the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of any auditors, accountants or appraisers and any environmental or other consultants, advisors and agents employed or retained by Administrative Agent or its counsel) of obtaining and reviewing any appraisals and any environmental audits or reports provided for under subsection 6.9; (vi) all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent in connection with the custody or preservation of any of the Collateral; (vii) all other reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with the syndication of the Commitments; (viii) all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees (including allocated costs of internal counsel) and fees, costs and expenses of accountants, advisors and consultants, incurred by Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and its counsel relating to efforts to (a) during the continuance of any Event of Default evaluate or assess any Loan Party, its business or financial condition and (b) protect, evaluate, assess or dispose of any of the Collateral; and (ix) all costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees (including allocated costs of internal counsel), fees, costs and expenses of accountants, advisors and consultants and costs of settlement, incurred by Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and Lenders in enforcing any Obligations of or in collecting any payments due from any Loan Party hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (including in connection with the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon any of the Collateral or the enforcement of the Loan Documents) or in connection with any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided under this Agreement in the nature of a “work-out” or pursuant to any insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings.

In addition to the payment of expenses pursuant to subsection 10.2, whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated, Company agrees to defend (subject to Indemnitees’ selection of counsel), indemnify, pay and hold harmless Agents and Lenders (including Issuing Lenders), and the officers, directors, trustees, employees, agents, advisors and Affiliates of Agents and Lenders (collectively called the “Indemnitees”), from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities (as hereinafter defined); provided that Company shall not have any obligation to any Indemnitee hereunder with respect to any Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities arise solely from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of that Indemnitee as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

As used herein, “Indemnified Liabilities” means, collectively, any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages (including natural resource damages), penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims (including Environmental Claims), costs (including the costs of any investigation, study, sampling, testing, abatement, cleanup, removal, remediation or other response action necessary to remove, remediate, clean up or abate any Hazardous Materials Activity), expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel (including allocated costs of internal counsel) for Indemnitees in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding commenced or threatened by any Person, whether or not any such Indemnitee shall be designated as a party or a potential party thereto, and any fees or expenses incurred by Indemnitees in enforcing this indemnity), whether direct, indirect or consequential and whether based on any federal, state or foreign laws, statutes, rules or regulations (including securities and commercial laws, statutes, rules or regulations and Environmental Laws), on common law or equitable cause or on contract or otherwise, that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against any such Indemnitee, in any manner relating to or arising out of (i) this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or the Related Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including Lenders’ agreement to make the Loans hereunder or the use or intended use of the proceeds thereof or the issuance of Letters of Credit hereunder or the use or intended use of any thereof, the failure of an Issuing Lender to honor a drawing under a Letter of Credit as a result of any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto Government Authority or any enforcement of any of the Loan Documents (including any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon any of the Collateral or the enforcement of the Guaranty)), (ii) the statements contained in the commitment letter delivered by any Lender to Company with respect thereto, or (iii) any Environmental Claim or any Hazardous Materials Activity relating to or arising from, directly or indirectly, any past or present activity, operation, land ownership, or practice of Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

To the extent that the undertakings to defend, indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in this subsection 10.3 may be unenforceable in whole or in part because they are violative of any law or public policy, Company shall contribute the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by Indemnitees or any of them.

In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default each of Lenders and their Affiliates is hereby authorized by Company at any time or from time to time, without notice to Company or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, including Indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured, but not including trust accounts) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by that Lender or any Affiliate of that Lender to or for the credit or the account of Company and each other Loan Party against and on account of the Obligations of Company or any other Loan Party to that Lender (or any Affiliate of that Lender) or to any other Lender (or any Affiliate of any other Lender) under this Agreement, the Letters of Credit and participations therein and the other Loan Documents, including all claims of any nature or description arising out of or connected with this Agreement, the Letters of Credit and participations therein or any other Loan Document, irrespective of whether or not (i) that Lender shall have made any demand

hereunder or (ii) the principal of or the interest on the Loans or any amounts in respect of the Letters of Credit or any other amounts due hereunder shall have become due and payable pursuant to Section 8 and although said obligations and liabilities, or any of them, may be contingent or unmatured.

Lenders hereby agree among themselves that if any of them shall, whether by voluntary or mandatory payment (other than a payment or prepayment of Loans made and applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement), by realization upon security, through the exercise of any right of set-off or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action or by the enforcement of any right under the Loan Documents or otherwise, or as adequate protection of a deposit treated as cash collateral under the Bankruptcy Code, receive payment or reduction of a proportion of the aggregate amount of principal, interest, amounts payable in respect of Letters of Credit, fees and other amounts then due and owing to that Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (collectively, the “Aggregate Amounts Due” to such Lender) that is greater than the proportion received by any other Lender in respect of the Aggregate Amounts Due to such other Lender, then the Lender receiving such proportionately greater payment shall, unless such proportionately greater payment is required by the terms of this Agreement, (i) notify Administrative Agent and each other Lender of the receipt of such payment and (ii) apply a portion of such payment to purchase assignments (which it shall be deemed to have purchased from each seller of an assignment simultaneously upon the receipt by such seller of its portion of such payment) of the Aggregate Amounts Due to the other Lenders so that all such recoveries of Aggregate Amounts Due shall be shared by all Lenders in proportion to the Aggregate Amounts Due to them; provided that (a) if all or part of such proportionately greater payment received by such purchasing Lender is thereafter recovered from such Lender upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of Company or otherwise, those purchases shall be rescinded and the purchase prices paid for such assignments shall be returned to such purchasing Lender ratably to the extent of such recovery, but without interest and (b) the foregoing provisions shall not apply to (1) any payment made by Company pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or (2) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment (other than an assignment pursuant to this subsection 10.5) of or the sale of a participation in any of its Obligations to any Eligible Assignee or Participant pursuant to subsection 10.1B. Company expressly consents to the foregoing arrangement and agrees that any purchaser of an assignment so purchased may exercise any and all rights of a Lender as to such assignment as fully as if that Lender had complied with the provisions of subsection 10.1B with respect to such assignment. In order to further evidence such assignment (and without prejudice to the effectiveness of the assignment provisions set forth above), each purchasing Lender and each selling Lender agree to enter into an Assignment Agreement at the request of a selling Lender or a purchasing Lender, as the case may be, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to each such Lender.

A. No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or of the Notes, and no consent to any departure by Company therefrom, shall in any event be effective without the written concurrence of Requisite Lenders; provided that no such amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent shall, without the consent of:

(a) each Lender with Obligations directly affected (whose consent shall be sufficient for any such amendment, modification, termination or waiver without the consent of Requisite Lenders) (1) reduce or forgive the principal amount of any Loan, (2) postpone the scheduled final maturity date of any Loan, or postpone the date or reduce or forgive the amount of any scheduled

payment (but not prepayment) of principal of any Loan, (3) postpone the date or reduce the amount of any scheduled reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount, (4) postpone the date on which any interest or any fees are payable, (5) decrease the interest rate borne by any Loan (other than any waiver of any increase in the interest rate applicable to any of the Loans pursuant to subsection 2.2E, but including, for the purpose of being a change in the interest rate, any change in the numerical levels of any financial ratio used in determining any interest rate) or the amount of any fees payable hereunder (other than any waiver of any increase in the fees applicable to Letters of Credit pursuant to subsection 3.2 following an Event of Default), (6) reduce the amount or postpone the due date of any amount payable in respect of any Letter of Credit, (7) extend the expiration date of any Letter of Credit beyond the Revolving Loan Commitment Termination Date, (8) extend the Revolving Commitment Termination Date, (9) change in any manner the obligations of Revolving Lenders relating to the purchase of participations in Letters of Credit or (10) increase the maximum duration of Interest Periods permitted hereunder;

(b) each Lender adversely affected thereby, (1) change in any manner the definition of “Class” or the definition of “Pro Rata Share” or the definition of “Requisite Class Lenders” or the definition of “Requisite Lenders” (except for any changes resulting solely from an increase in the aggregate amount of the Commitments or Loans of any Class approved by Requisite Lenders), (2) change in any manner any provision of this Agreement that, by its terms, expressly requires the approval or concurrence of all Lenders or all affected Lenders, (3) release any Lien granted in favor of Collateral Agent with respect to all or substantially all of the Collateral or release all or substantially all of the Guarantors from their obligations under the Guaranty, in each case other than in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, or (4) change in any manner or waive the provisions contained in subsection 2.4B(iv)(b), subsection 2.4D, subsection 8.1, subsection 10.5 or this subsection 10.6; or

(c) the Requisite Class Lenders of Revolving Loans (whose consent shall be sufficient for any amendment, modification or waiver without any further action, including consent of the Requisite Lenders), amend, modify or waive the provisions of subsection 7.5.

B. In addition, no amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision (i) of any Note shall be effective without the written concurrence of the Lender which is the holder of that Note, (ii) of subsection 2.1A(iii) or of any other provision of this Agreement relating to the Swing Line Loan Commitment or the Swing Line Loans shall be effective without the written concurrence of Swing Line Lender, (iii) of Section 3 shall be effective without the written concurrence of Administrative Agent and, with respect to the purchase of participations in Letters of Credit, without the written concurrence of each Issuing Lender that has issued an outstanding Letter of Credit or has not been reimbursed for a payment under a Letter of Credit, (iv) of Section 9 or of any other provision of this Agreement which, by its terms, expressly requires the approval or concurrence of Administrative Agent shall be effective without the written concurrence of Administrative Agent, (v) of subsection 2.4 that alters the application of any mandatory or voluntary prepayment as between Classes without the written concurrence of Requisite Class Lenders of each Class that is being allocated a lesser amount of any such prepayment as a result thereof, provided that Requisite Lenders may waive, in whole or in part, any mandatory prepayment and Requisite Lenders (in addition to each Lender that thereby increases its Commitment) may increase the aggregate amount of the Commitments, in each case so long as the application, as between Classes, of any portion of such prepayment which is still required to be made is not altered; (vi) that increases the amount of a Commitment of a Lender shall be effective without the consent of such Lender; and (vii) that increases the maximum amount of Letters of Credit shall be effective without the consent of Revolving Lenders constituting Requisite Class Lenders.

C. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Requisite Lenders, the Administrative Agent and Company (a) to add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Term Loans and the Revolving Loans and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof and (b) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Requisite Lenders.

In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing this Agreement may be amended with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, Company and the Lenders providing the relevant Replacement Term Loans (as defined below) to permit the refinancing of all outstanding Term Loans (“Refinanced Term Loans”), with a replacement term loan tranche denominated in Dollars (“Replacement Term Loans”); provided that (a) the aggregate principal amount of such Replacement Term Loans, shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount of such Refinanced Term Loans, (b) the Base Rate Margin and Eurodollar Rate Margin for such Replacement Term Loans shall not be higher than such Margin for such Refinanced Term Loans, (c) the weighted average life to maturity of such Replacement Term Loans, shall not be shorter than the weighted average life to maturity of such Refinanced Term Loans, at the time of such refinancing (except to the extent of nominal amortization for periods where amortization has been eliminated as a result of prepayment of the applicable Term Loans) and (d) all other terms applicable to such Replacement Term Loans, shall be substantially identical to, or less favorable to the Lenders providing such Replacement Term Loans, than, those applicable to such Refinanced Term Loans, except to the extent necessary to provide for covenants and other terms applicable to any period after the latest final maturity of the Term Loans in effect immediately prior to such refinancing.

D. Administrative Agent may, but shall have no obligation to, with the concurrence of any Lender, execute amendments, modifications, waivers or consents on behalf of that Lender. Any waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given. No notice to or demand on Company in any case shall entitle Company to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. Any amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent effected in accordance with this subsection 10.6 shall be binding upon each Lender at the time outstanding, each future Lender and, if signed by Company, on Company.

All covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or would otherwise be within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of an Event of Default or Potential Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists.

Unless otherwise specifically provided herein, any notice or other communication herein required or permitted to be given shall be in writing and may be personally served, or sent by telefacsimile or United States mail or courier service and shall be deemed to have been given when delivered in person or by courier service, upon receipt of telefacsimile in complete and legible form, or three Business Days after depositing it in the United States mail with postage prepaid and properly addressed; provided that notices to Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, Swing Line Lender and any Issuing Lender shall not be effective until received. For the purposes hereof, the address of each party hereto shall be as set forth under such party’s name on the signature pages hereof or (i) as to Company, Administrative Agent

and Collateral Agent, such other address as shall be designated by such Person in a written notice delivered to the other parties hereto and (ii) as to each other party, such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice delivered to Administrative Agent.

Electronic mail and Internet and intranet websites may be used to distribute routine communications, such as financial statements and other information as provided in subsection 6.1. Administrative Agent or Company may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it, provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. Company hereby agrees, unless directed otherwise by Administrative Agent or unless the electronic mail address referred to below has not been provided by Administrative Agent to Company, that it will, or will cause its Subsidiaries to, provide to Administrative Agent all information, documents and other materials that it is obligated to furnish to Administrative Agent pursuant to the Loan Documents, or to the Lenders under subsection 6.1, including all notices, requests, financial statements, financial and other reports, certificates and other information materials, but excluding any such communication that (a) is or relates to a Notice of Borrowing, a Notice of Conversion/Continuation or a Notice of Prepayment, (b) relates to the payment of any principal or other amount due under this Agreement prior to the scheduled date therefor, (c) provides notice of any Potential Event of Default or Event of Default under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or (d) is required to be delivered to satisfy any condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement and/or the Loans (all such non-excluded communications being referred to herein collectively as “Communications”), by transmitting the Communications in an electronic/soft medium that is properly identified in a format acceptable to Administrative Agent to patricia.mcgowan@db.com (or at such other electronic mail address as directed by Administrative Agent). In addition, Company agrees, and agrees to cause its Subsidiaries, to continue to provide the Communications to Administrative Agent or the Lenders, as the case may be, in the manner specified in the Loan Documents but only to the extent requested by Administrative Agent.

Company further agrees that Administrative Agent may make the Communications available to the Lenders by posting the Communications on Intralinks or a substantially similar electronic transmission system (the “Platform”).

Loan Documents and notices under the Loan Documents may be transmitted and/or signed by telefacsimile and by signatures delivered in ‘PDF’ format by electronic mail. The effectiveness of any such documents and signatures shall, subject to applicable law, have the same force and effect as an original copy with manual signatures and shall be binding on all Loan Parties, Agents and Lenders. Administrative Agent may also require that any such documents and signature be confirmed by a manually-signed copy thereof; provided, however, that the failure to request or deliver any such manually-signed copy shall not affect the effectiveness of any facsimile document or signature.

A. All representations, warranties and agreements made herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of the Loans and the issuance of the Letters of Credit hereunder.

B. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or implied by law to the contrary, the agreements of Company set forth in subsections 2.6D, 2.7, 10.2, 10.3, 10.4, 10.17 and 10.18 and the agreements of Lenders set forth in subsections 9.2C, 9.4, 10.5 and 10.18 shall survive the payment of the Loans, the cancellation or expiration of the Letters of Credit and the reimbursement of any amounts drawn thereunder, and the termination of this Agreement.

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

Neither any Agent nor any Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of Company or any other party or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that Company makes a payment or payments to Administrative Agent or Lenders (or to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Lenders), or Agents or Lenders enforce any security interests or exercise their rights of setoff, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or setoff or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, any other state or federal law, common law or any equitable cause, then, to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor or related thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment or payments had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

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

10.13 Obligations Several; Independent Nature of Lenders’ Rights; Damage Waiver.

The obligations of Lenders hereunder are several and no Lender shall be responsible for the obligations or Commitments of any other Lender hereunder. Nothing contained herein or in any other Loan Document, and no action taken by Lenders pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute Lenders, or Lenders and Company, as a partnership, an association, a Joint Venture or any other kind of entity. The amounts payable at any time hereunder to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt, and, subject to subsection 9.6, each Lender shall be entitled to protect and enforce its rights arising out of this Agreement and it shall not be necessary for any other Lender to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

To the extent permitted by law, Company shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with or as a result of this Agreement (including, without limitation, subsection 2.1C hereof), any other Loan Document, any transaction contemplated by the Loan Documents, any Loan or the use of proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee shall be liable

for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby.

Upon the proposed sale or other disposition of any Collateral to any Person that is permitted by this Agreement or to which Requisite Lenders (or such greater number of Lenders as may be required pursuant to subsection 10.6) have otherwise consented, or the sale or other disposition of the Capital Stock of a Guarantor to such that such Guarantor ceases to be a Subsidiary or to which Requisite Lenders (or such greater number of Lenders as may be required pursuant to subsection 10.6) have otherwise consented, such Loan Party shall deliver an Officer’s Certificate (i) stating that the Collateral or the Capital Stock subject to such disposition is being sold or otherwise disposed of in compliance with the terms hereof and (ii) specifying the Collateral or Capital Stock being sold or otherwise disposed of in the proposed transaction. Upon the receipt of such Officer’s Certificate, Administrative Agent shall, at such Loan Party’s expense, so long as Administrative Agent (a) has no reason to believe that the facts stated in such Officer’s Certificate are not true and correct and (b), if the sale or other disposition of such item of Collateral or Capital Stock constitutes an Asset Sale, shall have received evidence satisfactory to it that arrangements satisfactory to it have been made for delivery of the Net Asset Sale Proceeds if and as required by subsection 2.4, execute and deliver such releases of its security interest in such Collateral or such Guaranty, as may be reasonably requested by such Loan Party.

THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN ANY SUCH LOAN DOCUMENT) AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER AND THEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (INCLUDING SECTION 5-1401 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK), WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THAT WOULD REQUIRE APPLICATION OF ANOTHER LAW.

Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that (i) it has been represented by counsel in the negotiation and documentation of the terms of this Agreement, (ii) it has had full and fair opportunity to review and revise the terms of this Agreement, (iii) this Agreement has been drafted jointly by all of the parties hereto, and (iv) neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender or other Agent has any fiduciary relationship with or duty to Company arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and the relationship between Administrative Agent, the other Agents and Lenders, on one hand, and Company, on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of debtor and creditor. Accordingly, each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that the terms of this Agreement shall not be construed against or in favor of another party.

ALL JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS BROUGHT AGAINST COMPANY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, OR ANY OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER AND THEREUNDER, MAY BE BROUGHT IN ANY

STATE OR FEDERAL COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION IN THE STATE, COUNTY AND CITY OF NEW YORK. BY EXECUTING AND DELIVERING THIS AGREEMENT, COMPANY, FOR ITSELF AND IN CONNECTION WITH ITS PROPERTIES, IRREVOCABLY

(I) ACCEPTS GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION AND VENUE OF SUCH COURTS;

(III) AGREES THAT SERVICE OF ALL PROCESS IN ANY SUCH PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, TO COMPANY AT ITS ADDRESS PROVIDED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUBSECTION 10.8;

(IV) AGREES THAT SERVICE AS PROVIDED IN CLAUSE (III) ABOVE IS SUFFICIENT TO CONFER PERSONAL JURISDICTION OVER COMPANY IN ANY SUCH PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT, AND OTHERWISE CONSTITUTES EFFECTIVE AND BINDING SERVICE IN EVERY RESPECT;

(V) AGREES THAT LENDERS RETAIN THE RIGHT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR TO BRING PROCEEDINGS AGAINST COMPANY IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION; AND

(VI) AGREES THAT THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SUBSECTION 10.17 RELATING TO JURISDICTION AND VENUE SHALL BE BINDING AND ENFORCEABLE TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE UNDER NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW SECTION 5-1402 OR OTHERWISE.

EACH OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY AGREES TO WAIVE ITS RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY DEALINGS BETWEEN THEM RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS LOAN TRANSACTION OR THE LENDER/COMPANY RELATIONSHIP THAT IS BEING ESTABLISHED. THE SCOPE OF THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED TO BE ALL-ENCOMPASSING OF ANY AND ALL DISPUTES THAT MAY BE FILED IN ANY COURT AND THAT RELATE TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS TRANSACTION, INCLUDING CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW AND STATUTORY CLAIMS. EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO ENTER INTO A BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP, THAT EACH HAS ALREADY RELIED ON THIS WAIVER IN ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, AND THAT EACH WILL CONTINUE TO RELY ON THIS WAIVER IN THEIR RELATED FUTURE DEALINGS. EACH PARTY HERETO FURTHER WARRANTS AND REPRESENTS THAT IT HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS LEGAL COUNSEL AND THAT IT KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY TRIAL RIGHTS FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL. THIS WAIVER IS IRREVOCABLE, MEANING THAT IT MAY NOT BE MODIFIED EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING (OTHER THAN BY A MUTUAL WRITTEN WAIVER SPECIFICALLY

REFERRING TO THIS SUBSECTION 10.18 AND EXECUTED BY EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO), AND THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR TO ANY OTHER DOCUMENTS OR AGREEMENTS RELATING TO THE LOANS MADE HEREUNDER. IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT.

Each Lender shall hold all non-public information obtained pursuant to the requirements of this Agreement that has been identified in writing as confidential by Company in accordance with such Lender’s customary procedures for handling confidential information of this nature, it being understood and agreed by Company that in any event a Lender may make disclosures (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, trustees, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such information and instructed to keep such information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any Government Authority, (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this subsection 10.19, to (i) any Eligible Assignee of or participant in, or any prospective Eligible Assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, (ii) any pledgee pursuant to subsection 10.1D or (iii) any direct or indirect contractual counterparty or prospective counterparty (or such contractual counterparty’s or prospective counterparty’s professional advisor) to any credit derivative transaction relating to obligations of Company, (g) with the consent of Company, (h) to the extent such information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this subsection 10.19 or (ii) becomes available to Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than Company, (i) to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any other similar organization or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about a Lender’s or its Affiliates’ investment portfolio in connection with ratings issued with respect to such Lender or its Affiliates and that no written or oral communications from counsel to an Agent and no information that is or is designated as privileged or as attorney work product may be disclosed to any Person unless such Person is a Lender or a Participant hereunder, (j) to a Person that is an investor or prospective investor in a Securitization (as defined below) that agrees that its access to information regarding Company and the Loans is solely for purposes of evaluating an investment in such Securitization (as defined below), or (k) to a Person that is a trustee, collateral manager, servicer, noteholder or secured party in a Securitization (as defined below) in connection with the administration, servicing and reporting on the assets serving as collateral for such Securitization; provided that, unless specifically prohibited by applicable law or court order, each Lender shall notify Company of any request by any Government Authority or representative thereof (other than any such request in connection with any examination of the financial condition of such Lender by such Government Authority) for disclosure of any such non-public information prior to disclosure of such information; and provided, further, that in no event shall any Lender be obligated or required to return any materials furnished by Company or any of its Subsidiaries. In addition, Administrative Agent and Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry, and service providers to Administrative Agent and Lenders, and Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates may place customary “tombstone” advertisements relating hereto in publications (including publications circulated or otherwise made available in electronic form) of its choice at its own expense. For purposes

hereof, “Securitization” means a public or private offering by an Lender or any of its Affiliates or their respective successors and assigns, of securities which represent an interest in, or which are collateralized, in whole or in part, by the Loans and the Loan Documents.

This Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents or supplements hereto or in connection herewith may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument; signature pages may be detached from multiple separate counterparts and attached to a single counterpart so that all signature pages are physically attached to the same document. This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution of a counterpart hereof by each of the parties hereto.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, information required to be treated as confidential by reason of the foregoing shall not include, and Administrative Agent and each Lender may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, any information with respect to United States federal income tax treatment and United States federal income tax structure of the transactions contemplated hereby and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to Administrative Agent or such Lender relating to such tax treatment and tax structure.

Each Lender hereby notifies Company that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies Loan Parties, which information includes the name and address of each Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender to identify such Loan Party in accordance with the Act.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed and delivered by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized as of the date first written above.

Pursuant to that certain First Lien Credit Agreement dated as of April 12, 2007, as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified to the date hereof (said First Lien Credit Agreement, as so amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, being the “Credit Agreement”, the terms defined therein and not otherwise defined herein being used herein as therein defined), by and among Stealth Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (which on the Closing Date will be merged with and into SafeNet, Inc., a Delaware corporation) (“Company”), Vector Stealth Holdings II, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company (“Holdings”), the financial institutions listed therein as Lenders (“Lenders”), and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as administrative agent and collateral agent for Lenders, this represents Company’s request to borrow as follows:

The undersigned officer, to the best of his or her knowledge, certifies on behalf of Company that:

(i) The [Specified Representations]¹ [representations and warranties] contained in the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents are true, correct and complete in all material respects on and as of the date hereof to the same extent as though made on and as of the date hereof, except to the extent such representations and warranties specifically relate to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties were true, correct and complete in all material respects on and as of such earlier date; provided that, if a representation and warranty is qualified as to materiality, the materiality qualifier set forth above shall be disregarded with respect to such representation and warranty for purposes of this condition;

(ii) [The representations in the Merger Agreement that (A) are material to the interests of the Lenders and solely to the extent that Holdings has the right to terminate its obligations as a result of the breach thereof, are true and correct as of the date of the Merger Agreement and as of the Closing Date, as though made on and as of the Closing Date, and (B) are made as of a specific date shall be true and correct as of such date, in each case except where the failure of such representations or warranties to be true and correct (without giving effect to any limitation as to “Material Adverse Effect”, “in all material respects”, “in any material respect”, “material” or “materially” set forth in such representations and warranties) does not have and would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Merger MAC]²; and

(iii) No event has occurred and is continuing or would result from the consummation of the borrowing contemplated hereby that would constitute an Event of Default or a Potential Event of Default.

Pursuant to that certain First Lien Credit Agreement dated as of April 12, 2007, as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified to the date hereof (said First Lien Credit Agreement, as so amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, being the “Credit Agreement”, the terms defined therein and not otherwise defined herein being used herein as therein defined), by and among SafeNet, Inc., a Delaware corporation (as successor in interest to Stealth Acquisition Corp.)

(i) The representations and warranties contained in the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents are true, correct and complete in all material respects on and as of the date hereof to the same extent as though made on and as of the date hereof, except to the extent such representations and warranties specifically relate to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties were true, correct and complete in all material respects on and as of such earlier date; provided that, if a representation and warranty is qualified as to materiality, the materiality qualifier set forth above shall be disregarded with respect to such representation and warranty for purposes of this condition; and

(ii) No event has occurred and is continuing or would result from the issuance of the Letter of Credit contemplated hereby that would constitute an Event of Default or a Potential Event of Default.

Pursuant to that certain First Lien Credit Agreement dated as of April 12, 2007, as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified to the date hereof (said First Lien Credit Agreement, as so amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, being the “Credit Agreement”, the terms defined therein and not otherwise defined herein being used herein as therein defined), by and among SafeNet, Inc., a Delaware corporation (as successor in interest to Stealth Acquisition Corp.)

(1) We are the duly elected [Title] and [Title] of SafeNet, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Company”);

(2) We have reviewed the terms of that certain First Lien Credit Agreement dated as of April 12, 2007 as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified to the date hereof (said First Lien Credit Agreement, as so amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, being the “Credit Agreement”, the terms defined therein and not otherwise defined in this Certificate (including Attachment No. 1 annexed hereto and made a part hereof) being used in this Certificate as therein defined), by and among Company, Vector Stealth Holdings II, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company, the financial institutions listed therein as Lenders, and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, and the terms of the other Loan Documents, and we have made, or have caused to be made under our supervision, a review in reasonable detail of the transactions and condition of Company and its Subsidiaries during the accounting period covered by the attached financial statements; and

(3) The examination described in paragraph (2) above did not disclose, and we have no knowledge of, the existence of any condition or event which constitutes an Event of Default or Potential Event of Default during or at the end of the accounting period covered by the attached financial statements or as of the date of this Certificate, [except as set forth below].

[Set forth [below] [in a separate attachment to this Certificate] are all exceptions to paragraph (3) above listing, in detail, the nature of the condition or event, the period during which it has existed and the action which Company has taken, is taking, or proposes to take with respect to each such condition or event: ].

The foregoing certifications, together with the computations set forth in Attachment No. 1 annexed hereto and made a part hereof and the financial statements delivered with this Certificate in support hereof, are made and delivered this day of , pursuant to subsection 6.1(iv) of the Credit Agreement.

This Attachment No. 1 is attached to and made a part of a Compliance Certificate dated as of , and pertains to the period from , to , .² Subsection references herein relate to subsections of the Credit Agreement.

We have acted as special counsel to Vector Stealth Holdings II, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company (“Holdings”) and Stealth Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”), in connection with the First Lien Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) dated as of the date hereof among Holdings, Merger Sub (after giving effect to the merger with and into SafeNet, Inc., a Delaware corporation, the “Company”), the financial institutions listed as parties thereto (the “Lenders”), Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. and Citigroup Global Markets Inc., as joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunners , Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as administrative agent (in such capacity, “Administrative Agent”) and as collateral agent (in such capacity, the “Collateral Agent”), and Citibank, N.A., as syndication agent. We are providing this opinion to you at the request of each Loan Party (as hereinafter defined) pursuant to Section 4.1.E of the Credit Agreement. Except as otherwise indicated, capitalized terms used in this opinion and defined in the Credit Agreement will have the meanings given in the Credit Agreement.

In our capacity as such counsel, we have examined originals or copies of those corporate and other records and documents we considered appropriate, including the following:

As to relevant factual matters, we have relied upon, among other things, each Loan Party’s factual representations in the certificate by such Loan Party (each, a “Loan Party Certificate”). In addition, we have obtained and relied upon those certificates of public officials we considered appropriate.

We have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity with originals of all documents submitted to us as copies. To the extent each Loan Party’s obligations depend on the enforceability of the Loan Documents against other parties to the Loan Documents, we have assumed that the Loan Documents are enforceable against such other parties.

On the basis of such examination, our reliance upon the assumptions in this opinion and our consideration of those questions of law we considered relevant, and subject to the limitations and qualifications in this opinion, we are of the opinion that:

For purposes of our opinion in paragraph 9 above, we have assumed that each of MediaSentry and RNBO (i) is a corporation existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization, (ii) has the corporate power and authority to execute and deliver, and perform its obligations under, each of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and consummate the transactions contemplated thereby, (iii) has taken all requisite corporate action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of each of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and the transactions contemplated thereby and (iv) has duly executed and delivered each of the Loan Documents to which it is a party.

Our opinion in paragraph 9 above as to the enforceability of the Loan Documents is subject to:

(i) public policy considerations, statutes or court decisions that may limit the rights of a party to obtain indemnification against its own negligence, willful misconduct or unlawful conduct;

(ii) the unenforceability under certain circumstances of broadly or vaguely stated waivers or waivers of rights granted by law where the waivers are against public policy or prohibited by law;

(iii) the unenforceability under certain circumstances of provisions imposing penalties, liquidated damages or other economic remedies; and

(iv) the unenforceability under certain circumstances of provisions appointing one party as trustee for an adverse party or provisions for the appointment of a receiver.

We express no opinion as to the effect of non-compliance by you with any state or federal laws or regulations applicable to the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents because of the nature of your business.

We express no opinion as to any provision of the Loan Documents insofar as it purports to grant a right of setoff in respect of any Loan Party’s assets to any person other than a creditor of such Loan Party.

We advise you that Section 10.15 of the Credit Agreement, which provides for non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York and federal courts sitting in the State of New York, may not be binding on the federal courts sitting in the State of New York (or any federal appellate court).

We express no opinion regarding any provision of the Security Agreement that purports to permit Collateral Agent or any other person to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral subject thereto except in compliance with the NY Code, any other applicable federal and state laws and any agreement governing such Collateral, or to impose on Collateral Agent standards of care of Collateral in Collateral Agent’s possession other than as provided in Section 9-207 of the NY Code. We advise you that federal and state securities laws may limit the right to transfer or dispose of Collateral that may constitute securities under such laws. We advise you that if an action based on the Loan Documents were commenced in a federal or state court in New York, a judgment for money relating to the Loan Documents ordinarily would be enforced only in United States dollars. The method used to determine the rate of conversion of foreign currency into United States dollars will depend on various factors.

Our opinion in paragraph 9 is subject to the qualification that certain rights, remedies, waivers and other provisions of the Loan Documents may not be enforceable, but such unenforceability will not, subject to the other exceptions, qualifications and limitations set forth herein, render the Loan Documents invalid as a whole or substantially interfere with the substantial realization of the principal benefits or security, or both, that the Loan Documents purports to provide (except for the economic consequences of procedural or other delay).

For purposes of the opinions expressed in paragraphs 7, 8 and 10, we have assumed that no Loan Party will in the future take any discretionary action (including a decision not to act) permitted by the Loan Documents that would cause the performance of the Loan Documents to violate any New York or federal statute, rule or regulation, or constitute a violation or breach of or default under any of the agreements, orders, judgments or decrees referred to in paragraph 7, or require an order, consent, permit or approval to be obtained from a New York or federal governmental authority.

Our opinions in paragraphs 11-14 are (i) limited to Articles 8 and 9 of the NY Code and, in the case of paragraph 12, Delaware Article 9 and, in the case of paragraph 13, California

Article 9, and do not address (A) laws of jurisdictions other than New York (and as to our opinion in paragraph 12 only, Delaware, and as to our opinion in paragraph 13 only, California), (B) collateral not subject to Article 9 of the NY Code (including by reason of Section 9-109(c) or (d) thereof), or (C) under Sections 9-301 through 9-306 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in any jurisdiction, or otherwise, what law governs the perfection of the security interests granted in the collateral covered by those opinion paragraphs, and (ii) subject to the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally (including, without limitation, fraudulent conveyance laws) and to the effect of general principles of equity.

(i) the priority of any security interest (except as set forth in paragraph 14, with regard to the Certificated Security referred to therein); and

(ii) Collateral consisting of real property, copyrights, farm products, consumer goods, as-extracted collateral, commercial tort claims, cooperative interests (as such terms are defined in the NY Code) and timber to be cut.

(i) each Loan Party has, or will have at the relevant time, rights in the Collateral in which such Loan Party has granted a security interest to Collateral Agent within the meaning of Section 9-203(b)(2) of the NY Code at all times relevant to this opinion;

(ii) the Collateral is reasonably identified in the description of collateral set forth in the Security Agreement;

(iii) at all times relevant to this opinion, value has been given within the meaning of Section 9-203(b)(l) of the NY Code; and

(iv) neither Administrative Agent nor the Lenders have notice of any adverse claims to the Certificated Security referred to in paragraph 14.

(i) we have not made or undertaken to make any investigation as to the existence of or state of title to the Collateral and we express no opinion as to the existence, condition, or location of the Collateral; and

(ii) our opinion in paragraph 12 with respect to the State of Delaware is based solely upon a review of Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in the State of Delaware, as set forth in Uniform Laws Annotated, Uniform Commercial Code (2002) and Supp. (2006) (“Delaware Article 9”), and excludes any review of official decisions interpreting Delaware Article 9 or any other review.

The law covered by this opinion is limited to the present federal law of the United States, the present law of the State of New York, the present laws of the State of California, the present Delaware General Corporation Law, the current LLC Act and Delaware Article 9. We express no opinion as to the laws of any other jurisdiction and no opinion regarding the statutes, administrative decisions, rules, regulations or requirements of any county, municipality, subdivision or local authority of any jurisdiction. We express no opinion concerning (i) federal or state securities laws or regulations, (ii) federal or state antitrust, unfair competition or trade practice laws or regulations, (iii) pension and employee benefit laws and regulations, (iv) compliance with fiduciary requirements, (v) federal or state environmental laws and regulations, (vi) federal or state land use or subdivision laws or regulations, (vii) the Trading with the Enemy Act, as amended, the foreign assets control regulations of the United States Treasury Department, the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism (USA PATRIOT Act) Act of 2001, as amended, Executive Order No. 13,224 of September 24, 2001, Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions with Persons Who Commit, Threaten to Commit or Support Terrorism, as amended, and any enabling legislation, rules, regulations or executive orders relating thereto, or (viii) federal or state laws and regulations concerning filing requirements and filing requirements under the Uniform Commercial Code to the extent referred to in paragraphs 12 and 13.

This opinion is furnished by us as counsel for the Loan Parties and may be relied upon by you only in connection with the Loan Documents. It may not be used or relied upon by you for any other purpose or by any other person, nor may copies be delivered to any other person, without in each instance our prior written consent You may, however, deliver a copy of this opinion to your accountants, attorneys, and other professional advisors, to governmental regulatory agencies having jurisdiction over you, to permitted assignees of the Loans in connection with such assignment and to participants in connection with their purchase of a participation interest in the Loans. At your request, we hereby consent to reliance on this opinion by such assignees (but not such participants) to the same extent as the addressees hereof as if this opinion were addressed and had been delivered to them on the date of this opinion, on the condition and understanding that we assume no responsibility or obligation to consider the applicability or correctness of this opinion to any person other than its addressee(s).

This letter speaks only as of the date hereof and we assume no obligation to update or supplement this opinion to reflect any facts or circumstances that arise after the date of this opinion and come to our attention, or any future changes in laws.

This SOLVENCY CERTIFICATE (this “Certificate”) is delivered in connection with that certain First Lien Credit Agreement dated as of April 12, 2007 (the “Credit Agreement”) by and among SafeNet, Inc., a Delaware corporation (as successor in interest to Stealth Aquisition Corp.) (“Company”),, Vector Stealth Holdings II, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company (“Holdings”), the financial institutions referred to therein as Lenders (“Lenders”) and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as Administrative Agent (“Administrative Agent”) and Collateral Agent. Capitalized terms used herein without definition have the same meanings as in the Credit Agreement.

This Certificate is being delivered pursuant to subsection 4.1F of the Credit Agreement. The undersigned is the Chief Financial Officer of Company and hereby further certifies as of the date hereof, in [his] [her] capacity as an officer of Company, and not individually, as follows:

1. I have responsibility for (a) the management of the financial affairs of Company and the preparation of financial statements of Company, and (b) reviewing the financial and other aspects of the transactions contemplated by the Credit Agreement.

2. I have carefully prepared and/or reviewed the contents of this Certificate and have conferred with counsel for Company for the purpose of discussing the meaning of any provisions hereof that I desired to have clarified.

3. In preparation for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Credit Agreement, I have prepared and/or reviewed a pro forma balance sheet as at , 2007 and pro forma income projections and pro forma cash flow projections for each fiscal year during the term of the Credit Agreement for Company and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, in each case after giving effect to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Credit Agreement and the Related Agreements, including the Merger Agreement and the Certificate of Merger. The pro forma balance sheet, pro forma income projections and pro forma cash flow projections are based upon good faith estimates and assumptions believed by Company to be reasonable at the time made, it being recognized by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that such projections as to future events are not to be viewed as facts and that actual results during the period or periods covered by any such projections may differ from the projected results.

4. Based upon the foregoing and upon the best of my knowledge after due diligence, I have concluded as follows:

a. the “fair saleable value” of the property of Company and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis is both (A) greater than the total amount of liabilities (including contingent liabilities) of Company and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, and (B) not less than the amount that will be required to pay the probable liabilities on Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ existing debts as they become absolute and due considering all financing alternatives and potential asset sales reasonably available to Company and its Subsidiaries.

b. Company and its Subsidiaries do not intend to incur, or believe (nor do they reasonably believe) that they will incur, debts beyond their ability to pay such debts as they become due.

c. Company and its Subsidiaries do not have an unreasonably small amount of capital in relation to their business or any contemplated or undertaken transaction.

In computing the amount of such contingent liabilities as of the date hereof, such liabilities have been computed at the amount that, in the light of all the facts and circumstances existing as of the dale hereof, represents the amount that can reasonably be expected to become an actual or matured liability.

I understand that Administrative Agent and Lenders are relying on this Certificate in extending credit to Company pursuant to the Credit Agreement.

This certificate is being executed and delivered by the undersigned in [his/her] capacity as an officer of Company and no personal liability will attach to [him/her] in connection with the execution and delivery of this Certificate.

The undersigned has executed this Certificate, in [his] [her] capacity as an officer of Company and not individually, as of the day of , 200 .

This FIRST LIEN GUARANTY (this “Guaranty”) is entered into as of April 12, 2007 (as of and upon effectiveness of the Merger (as defined in the Credit Agreement referenced below)) by the undersigned (each a “Guarantor”, and together with any future Subsidiaries of Company that becomes a party hereto pursuant to Section 15 hereof, being collectively referred to herein as the “Guarantors”) in favor of and for the benefit of DEUTSCHE BANK TRUST COMPANY AMERICAS, as agent for and representative of (in such capacity herein called “Guarantied Party”) the financial institutions (“Lenders”) party to the Credit Agreement referred to below and any Swap Counterparties (as hereinafter defined), and in favor of and for the benefit of the other Beneficiaries (as hereinafter defined).

A. SafeNet, Inc., a Delaware corporation (as successor in interest to Stealth Acquisition Corp.) (“Company”), has entered into that certain First Lien Credit Agreement dated as of April 12, 2007 with Vector Stealth Holdings II, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company, Lenders and Guarantied Party, as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent for Lenders (said First Lien Credit Agreement, as it may hereafter be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, being the “Credit Agreement”; capitalized terms defined therein and not otherwise defined herein being used herein as therein defined).

B. Company and its Subsidiaries may from time to time enter, or may from time to time have entered, into one or more Hedge Agreements (collectively, the “Lender Swap Agreements”) with one or more Persons that are Lenders or Affiliates of Lenders at the time such Lender Swap Agreements are entered into (in such capacity, collectively, “Swap Counterparties”) in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, and it is desired that the obligations of Company under the Lender Swap Agreements, including without limitation the obligation of Company to make payments thereunder in the event of early termination thereof, together with all obligations of Company under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, be guarantied hereunder.

C. Guarantied Party, Lenders and each Swap Counterparty for which Guarantied Party has received the notice required by Section 18 hereof are sometimes referred to herein as “Beneficiaries”.

D. A portion of the proceeds of the Loans may be advanced to other Guarantors that are Subsidiaries of Company, and thus the Guarantied Obligations (as hereinafter defined) are being incurred for and will inure to the benefit of Guarantors (which benefits are hereby acknowledged).

E. It is a condition precedent to the making of the initial Loans under the Credit Agreement that Company’s obligations thereunder be guarantied by Guarantors.

F. Guarantors are willing irrevocably and unconditionally to guaranty such obligations of Company.

NOW, THEREFORE, based upon the foregoing and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and in order to induce Lenders and Guarantied Party to enter into the Credit Agreement and to make Loans and other extensions of credit thereunder and to induce Swap Counterparties to enter into the Lender Swap Agreements, Guarantors hereby agree as follows:

(a) Guarantors jointly and severally irrevocably and unconditionally guaranty, as primary obligors and not merely as sureties, the due and punctual payment in full of all Guarantied Obligations (as hereinafter defined) when the same shall become due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, demand or otherwise (including amounts that would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code). The term “Guarantied Obligations” is used herein in its most comprehensive sense and includes any and all Obligations of Company and all obligations of Company or any Subsidiary under Lender Swap Agreements, now or hereafter made, incurred or created, whether absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, whether due or not due, and however arising under or in connection with the Credit Agreement, the Lender Swap Agreements, this Guaranty and the other Loan Documents, including those arising under successive borrowing transactions under the Credit Agreement which shall either continue such obligations of Company or from time to time renew them after they have been satisfied.

Each Guarantor acknowledges that a portion of the Loans may be advanced to it, that Letters of Credit may be issued for the benefit of its business and that the Guarantied Obligations are being incurred for and will inure to its benefit.

Any interest on any portion of the Guarantied Obligations that accrues after the commencement of any proceeding, voluntary or involuntary, involving the bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, liquidation or arrangement of Company (or, if interest on any portion of the Guarantied Obligations ceases to accrue by operation of law by reason of the commencement of said proceeding, such interest as would have accrued on such portion of the Guarantied Obligations if said proceeding had not been commenced) shall be included in the Guarantied Obligations because it is the intention of each Guarantor and Guarantied Party that the Guarantied Obligations should be determined without regard to any rule of law or order that may relieve Company of any portion of such Guarantied Obligations.

In the event that all or any portion of the Guarantied Obligations is paid by Company, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall continue and remain in full force and effect or be reinstated, as the case may be, in the event that all or any part of such payment(s) is rescinded or recovered directly or indirectly from Guarantied Party or any other Beneficiary as a preference, fraudulent transfer or otherwise, and any such payments that are so rescinded or recovered shall constitute Guarantied Obligations,

Subject to the other provisions of this Section 1, upon the failure of Company to pay any of the Guarantied Obligations when and as the same shall become due, each Guarantor will upon demand pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to Guarantied Party for the ratable benefit of Beneficiaries, an amount equal to the aggregate of the unpaid Guarantied Obligations.

(b) Anything contained in this Guaranty to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of each Guarantor under this Guaranty and the other Loan Documents shall be limited to a maximum aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render its obligations hereunder subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under Section 548 of Title 11 of the United States Code or any applicable provisions of comparable state law (collectively, the “Fraudulent Transfer Laws”), in each case after giving effect to all other liabilities of such Guarantor, contingent or otherwise, that are relevant under the Fraudulent Transfer Laws (specifically excluding, however, any liabilities of

such Guarantor (x) in respect of intercompany indebtedness to Company or other affiliates of Company to the extent that such indebtedness would be discharged in an amount equal to the amount paid by such Guarantor hereunder and (y) under any guaranty of Subordinated Indebtedness which guaranty contains a limitation as to maximum amount similar to that set forth in this Section 1(b), pursuant to which the liability of such Guarantor hereunder is included in the liabilities taken into account in determining such maximum amount) and after giving effect as assets to the value (as determined under the applicable provisions of the Fraudulent Transfer Laws) of any rights to subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification or contribution of such Guarantor pursuant to applicable law or pursuant to the terms of any agreement.

(c) Each Guarantor under this Guaranty, and each guarantor under other guaranties, if any, relating to the Credit Agreement (the “Related Guaranties”) that contain a contribution provision similar to that set forth in this Section 1(c), together desire to allocate among themselves (collectively, the “Contributing Guarantors”), in a fair and equitable manner, their obligations arising under this Guaranty and the Related Guaranties. Accordingly, in the event any payment or distribution is made on any date by a Guarantor under this Guaranty or a guarantor under a Related Guaranty, each such Guarantor or such other guarantor shall be entitled to a contribution from each of the other Contributing Guarantors in the maximum amount permitted by law so as to maximize the aggregate amount of the Guarantied Obligations paid to Beneficiaries.

2. Guaranty Absolute; Continuing Guaranty. The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are irrevocable, absolute, independent and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance which constitutes a legal or equitable discharge of a guarantor or surety other than payment in full of the Guarantied Obligations. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, each Guarantor agrees that: (a) this Guaranty is a guaranty of payment when due and not of collectibility; (b) Guarantied Party may enforce this Guaranty upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement or the occurrence of an early termination date or similar event under any Lender Swap Agreements notwithstanding the existence of any dispute between Company and any Beneficiary with respect to the existence of such event; (c) the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are independent of the obligations of Company under the Loan Documents or the Lender Swap Agreements and the obligations of any other guarantor of obligations of Company and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against each Guarantor whether or not any action is brought against Company or any of such other guarantors and whether or not Company is joined in any such action or actions; and (d) a payment of a portion, but not all, of the Guarantied Obligations by one or more Guarantors shall in no way limit, affect, modify or abridge the liability of such or any other Guarantor for any portion of the Guarantied Obligations that has not been paid. This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and shall be binding upon each Guarantor and its successors and assigns, and each Guarantor irrevocably waives any right to revoke this Guaranty as to future transactions giving rise to any Guarantied Obligations.

3. Actions by Beneficiaries. Any Beneficiary may from time to time, without notice or demand and without affecting the validity or enforceability of this Guaranty or giving rise to any limitation, impairment or discharge of any Guarantor’s liability hereunder, (a) renew, extend, accelerate or otherwise change the time, place, manner or terms of payment of the Guarantied Obligations, (b) settle, compromise, release or discharge, or accept or refuse any offer of performance with respect to, or substitutions for, the Guarantied Obligations or any agreement relating thereto and/or subordinate the payment of the same to the payment of any other obligations, (c) request and accept other guaranties of the Guarantied Obligations and take and hold security for the payment of this Guaranty or the Guarantied Obligations, (d) release, exchange, compromise, subordinate or modify, with or without consideration, any security for payment of the Guarantied Obligations, any other guaranties of the Guarantied Obligations, or any other obligation of any Person with respect to the Guarantied Obligations, (e) enforce and apply any security

now or hereafter held by or for the benefit of any Beneficiary in respect of this Guaranty or the Guarantied Obligations and direct the order or manner of sale thereof, or exercise any other right or remedy that Guarantied Party or the other Beneficiaries, or any of them, may have against any such security, as Guarantied Party in its discretion may determine consistent with the Credit Agreement, the Lender Swap Agreements and any applicable security agreement, including foreclosure on any such security pursuant to one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, whether or not every aspect of any such sale is commercially reasonable, and (f) exercise any other rights available to Guarantied Party or the other Beneficiaries, or any of them, under the Loan Documents or the Lender Swap Agreements.

4. No Discharge. This Guaranty and the obligations of Guarantors hereunder shall be valid and enforceable and shall not be subject to any limitation, impairment or discharge for any reason (other than payment in full of the Guarantied Obligations), including without limitation the occurrence of any of the following, whether or not any Guarantor shall have had notice or knowledge of any of them: (a) any failure to assert or enforce or agreement not to assert or enforce, or the stay or enjoining, by order of court, by operation of law or otherwise, of the exercise or enforcement of, any claim or demand or any right, power or remedy with respect to the Guarantied Obligations or any agreement relating thereto, or with respect to any other guaranty of or security for the payment of the Guarantied Obligations, (b) any waiver or modification of, or any consent to departure from, any of the terms or provisions of the Credit Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, the Lender Swap Agreements or any agreement or instrument executed pursuant thereto, or of any other guaranty or security for the Guarantied Obligations, (c) the Guarantied Obligations, or any agreement relating thereto, at any time being found to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect, (d) the application of payments received from any source to the payment of indebtedness other than the Guarantied Obligations, even though Guarantied Party or the other Beneficiaries, or any of them, might have elected to apply such payment to any part or all of the Guarantied Obligations, (e) any failure to perfect or continue perfection of a security interest in any collateral which secures any of the Guarantied Obligations, (f) any defenses, set-offs or counterclaims which Company may assert against Guarantied Party or any Beneficiary in respect of the Guarantied Obligations, including but not limited to failure of consideration, breach of warranty, payment, statute of frauds, statute of limitations, accord and satisfaction and usury, and (g) any other act or thing or omission, or delay to do any other act or thing, which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of a Guarantor as an obligor in respect of the Guarantied Obligations.

5. Waivers. Each Guarantor waives, for the benefit of Beneficiaries: (a) any right to require Guarantied Party or the other Beneficiaries, as a condition of payment or performance by such Guarantor, to (i) proceed against Company, any other guarantor of the Guarantied Obligations or any other Person, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security held from Company, any other guarantor of the Guarantied Obligations or any other Person, (iii) proceed against or have resort to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of any Beneficiary in favor of Company or any other Person, or (iv) pursue any other remedy in the power of any Beneficiary; (b) any defense arising by reason of the incapacity, lack of authority or any disability or other defense of Company including, without limitation, any defense based on or arising out of the lack of validity or the unenforceability of the Guarantied Obligations or any agreement or instrument relating thereto or by reason of the cessation of the liability of Company from any cause other than payment in full of the Guarantied Obligations; (c) any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal; (d) any defense based upon Guarantied Party’s or any other Beneficiary’s errors or omissions in the administration of the Guarantied Obligations, except behavior that amounts to bad faith; (e) (i) any principles or provisions of law, statutory or otherwise, that are or might be in conflict with the terms of this Guaranty and any legal or equitable discharge of such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder, (ii) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting

such Guarantor’s liability hereunder or the enforcement hereof, (iii) any rights to set-offs, recoupments and counterclaims, and (iv) promptness, diligence and any requirement that any Beneficiary protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien or any property subject thereto; (f) notices, demands, presentments, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and notices of any action or inaction, including acceptance of this Guaranty, notices of default under the Credit Agreement, notices of default or early termination under any Lender Swap Agreement or any agreement or instrument related thereto, notices of any renewal, extension or modification of the Guarantied Obligations or any agreement related thereto, notices of any extension of credit to Company and notices of any of the matters referred to in Sections 3 and 4 and any right to consent to any thereof; and (g) to the fullest extent permitted by law, any defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by law which limit the liability of or exonerate guarantors or sureties, or which may conflict with the terms of this Guaranty.

6. Guarantors’ Rights of Subrogation, Contribution, Etc.; Subordination of Other Obligations. Until the Guarantied Obligations (other than Unasserted Obligations and obligations under the Lender Swap Agreements) shall have been paid in full and the Commitments shall have terminated, all Letters of Credit shall have expired or been cancelled (or the reimbursement Obligations in respect thereof have been secured with cash collateral or letters of credit in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Secured Party) and the Lender Swap Agreements have been paid in full (or the obligations thereunder have been secured by a collateral arrangement reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Swap Counterparty), each Guarantor shall withhold exercise of (a) any claim, right or remedy, direct or indirect, that such Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against Company or any of its assets in connection with this Guaranty or the performance by such Guarantor of its obligations hereunder, in each case whether such claim, right or remedy arises in equity, under contract, by statute, under common law or otherwise and including without limitation (i) any right of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification that such Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against Company, (ii) any right to enforce, or to participate in, any claim, right or remedy that any Beneficiary now has or may hereafter have against Company, and (iii) any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any collateral or security now or hereafter held by any Beneficiary and (b) any right of contribution such Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against any other guarantor of any of the Guarantied Obligations. Each Guarantor further agrees that, to the extent the agreement to withhold the exercise of its rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification and contribution as set forth herein is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void or voidable for any reason, any rights of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification such Guarantor may have against Company or against any collateral or security, and any rights of contribution such Guarantor may have against any such other guarantor, shall be junior and subordinate to any rights Guarantied Party or the other Beneficiaries may have against Company, to all right, title and interest Guarantied Party or the other Beneficiaries may have in any such collateral or security, and to any right Guarantied Party or the other Beneficiaries may have against such other guarantor.

Any indebtedness of Company now or hereafter held by any Guarantor is subordinated in right of payment to the Guarantied Obligations, and any such indebtedness of Company to a Guarantor collected or received by such Guarantor after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and any amount paid to a Guarantor on account of any subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification or contribution rights referred to in the preceding paragraph when all Guarantied Obligations have not been paid in full, shall be held in trust for Guarantied Party on behalf of Beneficiaries and shall forthwith be paid over to Guarantied Party for the benefit of Beneficiaries to be credited and applied against the Guarantied Obligations.

7. Expenses. Guarantors jointly and severally agree to pay, or cause to be paid, on demand, and to save Guarantied Party and the other Beneficiaries harmless against liability for, (i) any and ail costs and expenses (including fees, costs of settlement, and disbursements of counsel and allocated

costs of internal counsel) incurred or expended by Guarantied Party or any other Beneficiary in connection with the enforcement of or preservation of any rights under this Guaranty and (ii) any and all costs and expenses (including those arising from rights of indemnification) required to be paid by Guarantors under the provisions of any other Loan Document.

8. Financial Condition of Company. No Beneficiary shall have any obligation, and each Guarantor waives any duty on the part of any Beneficiary, to disclose or discuss with such Guarantor its assessment, or such Guarantor’s assessment, of the financial condition of Company or any matter or fact relating to the business, operations or condition of Company. Each Guarantor has adequate means to obtain information from Company on a continuing basis concerning the financial condition of Company and its ability to perform its obligations under the Loan Documents and the Lender Swap Agreements, and each Guarantor assumes the responsibility for being and keeping informed of the financial condition of Company and of all circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guarantied Obligations.

9. Representations and Warranties. Each Guarantor makes, for the benefit of Beneficiaries, each of the representations and warranties made in the Credit Agreement by Company as to such Guarantor, its assets, financial condition, operations, organization, legal status, business and the Loan Documents to which it is a party.

10. Covenants. Each Guarantor agrees that, so long as any part of the Guarantied Obligations (other than Unasserted Obligations and obligations under the Lender Swap Agreements) shall remain unpaid, any Letter of Credit shall be outstanding (unless the reimbursement Obligations in respect thereof have been secured with cash collateral or letters of credit in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Secured Party), any Lender shall have any Commitment or any Swap Counterparty shall have any obligation under any Lender Swap Agreement (unless the obligations thereunder have been secured by a collateral arrangement reasonably satisfactory to the Swap Counterparty), such Guarantor will, unless Requisite Obligees (as such term is defined in Section 17(a)) shall otherwise consent in writing, perform or observe, and cause its Subsidiaries to perform or observe, all of the terms, covenants and agreements that the Loan Documents state that Company is to cause a Guarantor and such Subsidiaries to perform or observe.

11. Set Off. In addition to any other rights any Beneficiary may have under law or in equity, if any amount shall at any time be due and owing by a Guarantor to any Beneficiary under this Guaranty, such Beneficiary is authorized at any time or from time to time while an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, without notice (any such notice being expressly waived), to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, including but not limited to indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured) and any other indebtedness of such Beneficiary owing to a Guarantor and any other property of such Guarantor held by a Beneficiary to or for the credit or the account of such Guarantor against and on account of the Guarantied Obligations and liabilities of such Guarantor to any Beneficiary under this Guaranty.

12. Discharge of Guaranty Upon Sale of Guarantor. If any Guarantor or any of its successors in interest under this Guaranty shall be sold or otherwise shall cease to be a Subsidiary in a transaction not prohibited by the Credit Agreement or otherwise consented to by Requisite Obligees (as such term is defined in Section 17(a)), such Guarantor or such successor in interest, as the case may be, may request Guarantied Party to execute and deliver documents or instruments necessary to evidence the release and discharge of such Guarantor from this Guaranty as provided in subsection 10.14 of the Credit Agreement.

13. Amendments and Waivers. No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of this Guaranty, and no consent to any departure by any Guarantor therefrom, shall in any event be effective without the written concurrence of Guarantied Party and, in the case of any such amendment or modification, Guarantors. Any such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given.

14. Miscellaneous. It is not necessary for Beneficiaries to inquire into the capacity or powers of any Guarantor or Company or the officers, directors or any agents acting or purporting to act on behalf of any of them.

The rights, powers and remedies given to Beneficiaries by this Guaranty are cumulative and shall be in addition to and independent of all rights, powers and remedies given to Beneficiaries by virtue of any statute or rule of law or in any of the Loan Documents or the Lender Swap Agreements or any agreement between one or more Guarantors and one or more Beneficiaries or between Company and one or more Beneficiaries. Any forbearance or failure to exercise, and any delay by any Beneficiary in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver thereof, nor shall it preclude the further exercise of any such right, power or remedy.

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

THIS GUARANTY AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF GUARANTORS, GUARANTIED PARTY AND THE OTHER BENEFICIARIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION SECTION 5-1401 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK), WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THAT WOULD REQUIRE APPLICATION OF ANOTHER LAW.

This Guaranty shall inure to the benefit of Beneficiaries and their respective successors and assigns.

ALL JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS BROUGHT AGAINST ANY GUARANTOR ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS GUARANTY MAY BE BROUGHT IN ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK, AND BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS GUARANTY EACH GUARANTOR ACCEPTS FOR ITSELF AND IN CONNECTION WITH ITS PROPERTIES, GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY, THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID COURTS AND WAIVES ANY DEFENSE OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS AND IRREVOCABLY AGREES TO BE BOUND BY ANY JUDGMENT RENDERED THEREBY IN CONNECTION WITH THIS GUARANTY. Each Guarantor agrees that service of all process in any such proceeding in any such court may be made by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, to such Guarantor at its address set forth below its signature hereto, such service being acknowledged by such Guarantor to be sufficient for personal jurisdiction in any action against such Guarantor in any such court and to be otherwise effective and binding service in every respect. Nothing herein shall affect the right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right of Guarantied Party or any Beneficiary to bring proceedings against such Guarantor in the courts of any other jurisdiction.

EACH GUARANTOR AND, BY ITS ACCEPTANCE OF THE BENEFITS HEREOF, GUARANTIED PARTY EACH AGREES TO WAIVE ITS RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS GUARANTY. THE SCOPE OF THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED TO BE ALL-ENCOMPASSING OF ANY AND ALL DISPUTES THAT MAY BE FILED IN ANY COURT AND THAT RELATE TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS TRANSACTION, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW AND STATUTORY CLAIMS. EACH GUARANTOR AND, BY ITS ACCEPTANCE OF THE BENEFITS HEREOF, GUARANTIED PARTY EACH (I) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR SUCH GUARANTOR AND GUARANTIED PARTY TO ENTER INTO A BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP, THAT SUCH GUARANTOR AND GUARANTIED PARTY HAVE ALREADY RELIED ON THIS WAIVER IN ENTERING INTO THIS GUARANTY OR ACCEPTING THE BENEFITS THEREOF, AS THE CASE MAY BE, AND THAT EACH WILL CONTINUE TO RELY ON THIS WAIVER IN THEIR RELATED FUTURE DEALINGS, AND (II) FURTHER WARRANTS AND REPRESENTS THAT EACH HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS LEGAL COUNSEL AND THAT EACH KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY TRIAL RIGHTS FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL.

In the event of litigation, this Guaranty may be filed as a written consent to a trial by the court.

15. Additional Guarantors. The initial Guarantor(s) hereunder shall be such of the Subsidiaries of Company as are signatories hereto on the date hereof. From time to time subsequent to the date hereof, Subsidiaries of Company may become parties hereto, as additional Guarantors (each an “Additional Guarantor”) as required under subsection 6.8 of the Credit Agreement, by executing a counterpart of this Guaranty. A form of such a counterpart is attached as Exhibit A. Upon delivery of any such counterpart to Guarantied Party, notice of which is hereby waived by Guarantors, each such Additional Guarantor shall be a Guarantor and shall be as fully a party hereto as if such Additional Guarantor were an original signatory hereof. Each Guarantor expressly agrees that its obligations arising hereunder shall not be affected or diminished by the addition or release of any other Guarantor hereunder, nor by any election of the Guarantied Party not to cause any Subsidiary of Company to become an Additional Guarantor hereunder. This Guaranty shall be fully effective as to any Guarantor that is or becomes a party hereto regardless of whether any other Person becomes or fails to become or ceases to be a Guarantor hereunder.

(a) Representations and Warranties. Each Grantor hereby represents and warrants, on the Closing Date and on each Credit Date, that Schedule 4.8 sets forth all Commercial Tort Claims of each Grantor in excess of $500,000 individually and $1,000,000 in the aggregate; and

(b) Covenants and Agreements. Each Grantor hereby covenants and agrees that, except as otherwise permitted pursuant to the Credit Agreement, with respect to any Commercial Tort Claim hereafter arising it shall deliver to the Collateral Agent a completed Pledge Supplement identifying such new Commercial Tort Claims in excess of $500,000 individually and $1,000,000 in the aggregate.

4.9 Perfection of De Minimis Collateral. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4, the Grantors shall not be required to perfect any security interest granted to the Collateral Agent as to which the Collateral Agent has determined in its reasonable discretion that the collateral value thereof is insufficient to justify the difficulty, time and/or expense of obtaining a perfected security interest therein.

Section 5. ACCESS; RIGHT OF INSPECTION AND FURTHER ASSURANCES; ADDITIONAL GRANTORS.

5.1 Access; Right of Inspection. The Collateral Agent shall have the inspection rights set forth in subsection 6.5 of the Credit Agreement.

(a) Each Grantor agrees that from time to time, at the expense of such Grantor, that it shall promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action, that may be necessary or desirable, or that the Collateral Agent may reasonably request, in order to create and/or maintain the validity, perfection or priority of and protect any security interest granted hereby or to enable the Collateral Agent to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to any Collateral. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor shall:

(i) file such financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto, and execute and deliver such other agreements, instruments, endorsements, powers of attorney or notices, as may be necessary or desirable, or as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request, in order to perfect and preserve the security interests granted or purported to be granted hereby;

(ii) take all actions necessary to ensure the recordation of appropriate evidence of the liens and security interest granted hereunder in the Intellectual Property with any intellectual property registry in which said Intellectual Property is registered or in which an application for registration is pending including, without limitation, the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office, the various Secretaries of State, and the foreign counterparts on any of the foregoing;

(iii) at any reasonable time, upon request by the Collateral Agent, assemble the Collateral and allow inspection of the Collateral by the Collateral Agent, or persons designated by the Collateral Agent; and

(iv) at the Collateral Agent’s request, appear in and defend any action or proceeding that may affect such Grantor’s title to or the Collateral Agent’s security interest in all or any part of the Collateral.

(b) Each Grantor hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to file a Record or Records, including, without limitation, financing or continuation statements, and amendments thereto, in any jurisdictions and with any filing offices as the Collateral Agent may determine, in its sole discretion, are necessary or advisable to perfect the security interest granted to the Collateral Agent herein. Such financing statements may describe the Collateral in the same manner as described herein or may contain an indication or description of collateral that describes such property in any other manner as the Collateral Agent may determine, in its sole discretion, is necessary, advisable or prudent to ensure the perfection of the security interest in the Collateral granted to the Collateral Agent herein, including, without limitation, describing such property as “all assets” or “all personal property, whether now owned or hereafter acquired.” Each Grantor shall furnish to the Collateral Agent from time to time statements and schedules further identifying and describing the Collateral and such other reports in connection with the Collateral as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request, all in reasonable detail.

5.3 Additional Grantors. From time to time subsequent to the date hereof, additional Persons may become parties hereto as additional Grantors (each, an “Additional Grantor”), by executing a Joinder Agreement, together with a Pledge Supplement and any other attachments, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent. Upon delivery of any such Joinder Agreement to the Collateral Agent, notice of which is hereby waived by the other Grantors, each Additional Grantor shall be a Grantor and shall be as fully a party hereto as if such Additional Grantor were an original signatory hereto. Each Grantor expressly agrees that its obligations arising hereunder shall not be affected or diminished by the addition or release of any other Grantor hereunder, nor by any election of Collateral Agent not to cause any other Subsidiary of Company to become an Additional Grantor hereunder. This Agreement shall be fully effective as to each Grantor that is or becomes a party hereto regardless of whether any other Person becomes or fails to become or ceases to be a Grantor hereunder.

6.1 Power of Attorney. Each Grantor irrevocably appoints the Collateral Agent (such appointment being coupled with an interest) as such Grantor’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor, the Collateral Agent or otherwise, from time to time in the Collateral Agent’s discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument that the Collateral Agent may deem reasonably necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the following:

(a) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, to obtain and adjust insurance required to be maintained by such Grantor or paid to the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Credit Agreement;

(b) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, to ask for, demand, collect, sue for, recover, compound, receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in respect of any of the Collateral;

(c) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, to receive, endorse and collect any drafts or other instruments, documents and chattel paper in connection with clause (b) above;

(d) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings that the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or desirable for the collection of any of the Collateral or otherwise to enforce the rights of the Collateral Agent with respect to any of the Collateral;

(e) to prepare and file any UCC financing statements against such Grantor as debtor;

(f) to prepare, sign, and file for recordation in any intellectual property registry, appropriate evidence of the lien and security interest granted herein in the Intellectual Property in the name of such Grantor as debtor;

(g) to take or cause to be taken all actions necessary to perform or comply or cause performance or compliance with the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, access to pay or discharge taxes or Liens (other than Permitted Liens) levied or placed upon or threatened against the Collateral, the legality or validity thereof and the amounts necessary to discharge the same to be determined by the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion, any such payments made by the Collateral Agent to become obligations of such Grantor to the Collateral Agent, due and payable immediately without demand; and

(h) generally to sell, transfer, pledge, make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully and completely as though the Collateral Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and to do, at the Collateral Agent’s option and such Grantor’s expense, at any time or from time to time, all acts and things that the Collateral Agent deems reasonably necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and the Collateral Agent’s security interest therein in order to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as such Grantor might do.

6.2 No Duty on the Part of Collateral Agent or Secured Parties. The powers conferred on the Collateral Agent hereunder are solely to protect the interests of the Secured Parties in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party to exercise any such powers. The Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties shall be accountable only for amounts that they actually receive as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither they nor any of their officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(a) If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to all other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it at law or in equity, all the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent on default under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral) to collect, enforce or satisfy any Secured Obligations then owing, whether by acceleration or otherwise, and also may pursue any of the following separately, successively or simultaneously:

(i) require any Grantor, and each such Grantor to the same extent hereby agrees that it shall at its expense and promptly upon request of the Collateral Agent forthwith, assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by the Collateral Agent and make it available to the Collateral Agent at a place to be designated by the Collateral Agent that is reasonably convenient to both parties;

(ii) enter onto the property where any Collateral is located and take possession thereof with or without judicial process;

(iii) prior to the disposition of the Collateral, store, process, repair or recondition the Collateral or otherwise prepare the Collateral for disposition in any manner to the extent the Collateral Agent deems appropriate; and

(iv) without notice except as specified below or under the UCC, sell, assign, lease, license (on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis) or otherwise dispose of the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of the Collateral Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, at such time or times and at such price or prices and upon such other terms as the Collateral Agent may deem commercially reasonable.

(b) The Collateral Agent or any Secured Party may be the purchaser of any or all of the Collateral at any public or private (to the extent to the portion of the Collateral being privately sold is of a kind that is customarily sold on a recognized market or the subject of widely distributed standard price quotations) sale in accordance with the UCC and the Collateral Agent, as collateral agent for and representative of the Secured Parties, shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such sale made in accordance with the UCC, to use and apply any of the Secured Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any Collateral payable by the Collateral Agent at such sale. Each purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of any Grantor, and each Grantor hereby waives (to the extent permitted by applicable law) all rights of redemption, stay and/or appraisal which it now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted. Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten (10) days notice to such Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Collateral Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. Each Grantor agrees that it would not be commercially unreasonable for the Collateral Agent to dispose of the Collateral or any portion thereof by using Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets. Each Grantor hereby waives any claims against the Collateral Agent arising by reason of the fact that the price at which any Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale, even if the Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Collateral to more than one offeree so long as such event is commercially reasonable. If the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay all the Secured Obligations, each Grantor shall be liable for the deficiency and the fees of any attorneys employed by the Collateral Agent to collect such deficiency. Each Grantor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 7.1(b) will cause irreparable injury to the Collateral Agent, that the Collateral Agent has no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section shall be specifically enforceable against such Grantor, and such Grantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no default has occurred giving rise to the Secured Obligations becoming due and payable prior to their stated maturities. Nothing in this Section 7.1(b) shall in any way alter the rights of the Collateral Agent hereunder. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the Grantor shall not be liable for any of the Obligations and there shall be no recourse to the Grantor or any officer, director, member, shareholder or employee thereof, except to the Collateral pledged by the Grantor under this Agreement.

(c) The Collateral Agent may sell the Collateral without giving any warranties as to the Collateral. The Collateral Agent may specifically disclaim or modify any warranties of title or the like. This procedure will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral.

(d) The Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to marshal any of the Collateral.

(e) Nothing in this Agreement waives any duty of the Collateral Agent or any right of the Grantors which cannot be waived under Section 9-602 of the UCC or other mandatory provisions of applicable law.

7.2 Application of Proceeds. Except as expressly provided elsewhere in this Agreement, and subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, all proceeds received by the Collateral Agent in respect of any sale, any collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral and (to the extent that the application thereof is not otherwise provided for in any other Loan Document) all other cash or proceeds received by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties shall be applied in full or in part by the Collateral Agent pursuant to subsection 2.4(D) of the Credit Agreement.

7.3 Sales on Credit. If Collateral Agent sells any of the Collateral upon credit, the applicable Grantor will be credited only with payments actually made by purchaser and received by Collateral Agent and applied to indebtedness of the purchaser. In the event the purchaser fails to pay for the Collateral, Collateral Agent may resell the Collateral and such Grantor shall be credited with proceeds of the sale.

7.4 Deposit Accounts. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent may apply the balance from any Deposit Account or instruct the bank at which any Deposit Account is maintained to pay the balance of any Deposit Account to or for the benefit of the Collateral Agent.

7.5 Investment Related Property. Each Grantor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, the Collateral Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Investment Related Property conducted without prior registration or qualification of such Investment Related Property under the Securities Act and/or such state securities laws, to limit purchasers to those who will agree, among other things, to acquire the Investment Related Property for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Grantor acknowledges that any such private sale may be at prices and on terms less favorable than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions (including a public offering made pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act) and, notwithstanding such circumstances, to the extent permitted by applicable law, each Grantor agrees that any such private sale, to the extent permitted by applicable law, shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation to delay the sale of any Investment Related Property for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register it for a form of public sale requiring registration under the Securities Act or under applicable state securities laws, even if such issuer would, or should, agree to so register it. If the Collateral Agent determines to exercise its right to sell any or all of the Investment Related Property, upon written request, each Grantor shall and shall cause each issuer of any Pledged Stock to be sold hereunder, each partnership and each limited liability company from time to time to furnish to the Collateral Agent all such information as the Collateral Agent may request in order to determine the number and nature of interest, shares or other instruments included in the Investment Related Property which may be sold by the Collateral Agent in exempt transactions under the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, as the same are from time to time in effect.

(a) Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default:

(i) the Collateral Agent shall have the right (but not the obligation) to bring suit or otherwise commence any action or proceeding in the name of any Grantor, the Collateral Agent or otherwise, in the Collateral Agent’s sole discretion, to enforce any Intellectual Property, in which event such Grantor shall, at the request of the Collateral Agent, do any and all lawful acts and execute any and all documents required by the Collateral Agent in aid of such enforcement and such Grantor shall promptly, upon demand, reimburse and indemnify the Collateral Agent as provided in Section 10 in connection with the exercise of its rights under this Section 7.6, and, to the extent that the Collateral Agent shall elect not to bring suit to enforce any Intellectual Property as provided in this Section 7.6, each Grantor agrees to use all reasonable measures, whether by action, suit, proceeding or otherwise, to prevent the infringement or other violation of any of such Grantor’s rights in the Intellectual Property by others and for that purpose agrees to diligently maintain any action, suit or proceeding against any Person so infringing as shall be necessary to prevent such infringement or violation;

(ii) upon written demand from the Collateral Agent, each Grantor shall grant, assign, convey or otherwise transfer to the Collateral Agent or such Collateral Agent’s designee all of such Grantor’s right, title and interest in and to the Intellectual Property and shall execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent such documents as are necessary or appropriate to carry out the intent and purposes of this Agreement;

(iii) each Grantor agrees that such an assignment and/or recording shall be applied to reduce the Secured Obligations outstanding only to the extent that the Collateral Agent (or any Secured Party) receives cash proceeds in respect of the sale of, or other realization upon, the Intellectual Property;

(iv) within ten (10) Business Days after written notice from the Collateral Agent, each Grantor shall make available to the Collateral Agent, to the extent within such Grantor’s power and authority, such personnel in such Grantor’s employ on the date of such Event of Default as the Collateral Agent may reasonably designate, by name, title or job responsibility, to permit such Grantor to continue, directly or indirectly, to produce, advertise and sell the products and services sold or delivered by such Grantor under or in connection with the Trademarks, Trademark Licenses, such persons to be available to perform their prior functions on the Collateral Agent’s behalf and to be compensated by the Collateral Agent at such Grantor’s expense on a per diem, pro-rata basis consistent with the salary and benefit structure applicable to each as of the date of such Event of Default; and

(v) the Collateral Agent shall have the right to notify, or require each Grantor to notify, any obligors with respect to amounts due or to become due to such Grantor in respect of the Intellectual Property, of the existence of the security interest created herein, to direct such obligors to make payment of all such amounts directly to the Collateral Agent, and, upon such notification and at the expense of such Grantor, to enforce collection of any such amounts and to adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment thereof, in the same manner and to the same extent as such Grantor might have done;

(vi) all amounts and proceeds (including checks and other instruments) received by Grantor in respect of amounts due to such Grantor in respect of the Collateral or any portion

thereof shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent hereunder, shall be segregated from other funds of such Grantor and shall be forthwith paid over or delivered to the Collateral Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement) to be held as cash Collateral and applied as provided by Section 7.7; and

(vii) other than in the ordinary course of business, no Grantor shall adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment of any such amount or release wholly or partly any obligor with respect thereto or allow any credit or discount thereon without Collateral Agent’s prior written consent.

(b) If (i) an Event of Default shall have occurred and, by reason of cure, waiver, modification, amendment or otherwise, no longer be continuing, (ii) no other Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (iii) an assignment or other transfer to the Collateral Agent of any rights, title and interests in and to the Intellectual Property shall have been previously made and shall have become absolute and effective, and (iv) the Secured Obligations shall not have become immediately due and payable, upon the written request of any Grantor, the Collateral Agent shall promptly execute and deliver to such Grantor, at such Grantor’s sole cost and expense, such assignments or other transfer as may be necessary to reassign to such Grantor any such rights, title and interests as may have been assigned to the Collateral Agent as aforesaid, subject to any disposition thereof that may have been made by the Collateral Agent; provided, after giving effect to such reassignment, the Collateral Agent’s security interest granted pursuant hereto, as well as all other rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent granted hereunder, shall continue to be in full force and effect; and provided, further, the rights, title and interests so reassigned shall be free and clear of any other Liens granted by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties.

(c) Solely for the purpose of enabling the Collateral Agent to exercise rights and remedies under this Section 7 and at such time as the Collateral Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, each Grantor hereby grants to the Collateral Agent, to the extent it has the right to do so, an irrevocable, nonexclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to such Grantor), subject, in the case of Trademarks, to sufficient rights to quality control and inspection in favor of such Grantor to avoid the risk of invalidation of said Trademarks, to use, operate under, license, or sublicense any Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter acquired by such Grantor, and wherever the same may be located.

7.7 Cash Proceeds. In addition to the rights of the Collateral Agent specified in Section 4.3 with respect to payments of Receivables, during the continuance of an Event of Default, all proceeds of any Collateral received by any Grantor consisting of cash, checks and other non-cash items (collectively, “Cash Proceeds”) shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the Collateral Agent, segregated from other funds of such Grantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Grantor, unless otherwise provided pursuant to Section 4.4(a)(ii), be turned over to the Collateral Agent in the exact form received by such Grantor (duly indorsed by such Grantor to the Collateral Agent, if required) and held by the Collateral Agent in the Collateral Account. Any Cash Proceeds received by the Collateral Agent (whether from a Grantor or otherwise) may, in the sole discretion of the Collateral Agent, (A) be held by the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, as collateral security for the Secured Obligations (whether matured or unmatured) and/or (B) then or at any time thereafter may be applied by the Collateral Agent against the Secured Obligations then due and owing.

The Collateral Agent has been appointed to act as Collateral Agent hereunder by Lenders and, by their acceptance of the benefits hereof, the other Secured Parties. The Collateral Agent shall be obligated,

and shall have the right hereunder, to make demands, to give notices, to exercise or refrain from exercising any rights, and to take or refrain from taking any action (including, without limitation, the release or substitution of Collateral), solely in accordance with this Agreement and the Credit Agreement; provided, the Collateral Agent shall, after payment in full of all Obligations under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, exercise, or refrain from exercising, any remedies provided for herein in accordance with the instructions of the holders of a majority of the aggregate notional amount (or, with respect to any Hedge Agreement that has been terminated in accordance with its terms, the amount then due and payable (exclusive of expenses and similar payments but including any early termination payments then due) under such Hedge Agreement) under all Hedge Agreements. In furtherance of the foregoing provisions of this Section 8, each Secured Party, by its acceptance of the benefits hereof, agrees that it shall have no right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral hereunder, it being understood and agreed by such Secured Party that all rights and remedies hereunder may be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of Secured Parties in accordance with the terms of this Section 8. Collateral Agent may resign at any time by giving thirty (30) days’ prior written notice thereof to Lenders and each Grantor, and Collateral Agent may be removed at any time with or without cause by an instrument or concurrent instruments in writing delivered to each Grantor and Collateral Agent signed by the Requisite Lenders. Upon any such notice of resignation or any such removal, Requisite Lenders shall have the right, upon five (5) Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, to appoint a successor Collateral Agent. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Collateral Agent hereunder by a successor Collateral Agent, that successor Collateral Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Collateral Agent under this Agreement, and the retiring or removed Collateral Agent under this Agreement shall promptly (a) transfer to such successor Collateral Agent all sums, Securities and other items of Collateral held hereunder, together with all records and other documents necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance of the duties of the successor Collateral Agent under this Agreement, and (b) execute and deliver to such successor Collateral Agent or otherwise authorize the filing of such amendments to financing statements, and take such other actions, as may be necessary or appropriate in connection with the assignment to such successor Collateral Agent of the security interests created hereunder, whereupon such retiring or removed Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any retiring or removed Collateral Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as the Collateral Agent, the provisions of this Agreement shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it under this Agreement while it was the Collateral Agent hereunder.

This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall remain in full force and effect until the payment in full of all Secured Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations), the cancellation or termination of the Commitments and the cancellation or expiration of all outstanding Letters of Credit, be binding upon each Grantor and each of their respective successors and assigns, and inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent hereunder, to the benefit of the Collateral Agent and its successors, transferees and assigns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, but subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement, any Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any Loans held by it to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to Lenders herein or otherwise. Upon the payment in full of all Secured Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations), the cancellation or termination of the Commitments and the cancellation or expiration of all outstanding Letters of Credit, the security interest granted hereby shall terminate hereunder and of record and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to the applicable Grantors. Upon any such termination the Collateral Agent shall, at the Grantors’ expense, execute and deliver to any Grantor such documents as such Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination.

The powers conferred on the Collateral Agent hereunder are solely to protect its interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Except for the exercise of reasonable care in the custody of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, the Collateral Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral. The Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of Collateral in its possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Collateral Agent accords its own property. Neither the Collateral Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon all or any part of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any Grantor or otherwise. If any Grantor fails to perform any agreement contained herein, the Collateral Agent may itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the expenses of the Collateral Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by each Grantor under subsection 10.02 of the Credit Agreement.

11.1 General. Any notice, request or demand required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be given in accordance with subsection 10.8 of the Credit Agreement; provided that any such notice, request or demand to any Grantor shall be addressed to such Grantor at its notice address set forth on Schedule 4.1. No failure or delay on the part of the Collateral Agent in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right or privilege. All rights and remedies existing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available. In case any provision in or obligation under this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. All covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or would otherwise be within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Grantors and their respective successors and assigns. No Grantor shall, without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent given in accordance with the Credit Agreement, assign any right, duty or obligation hereunder. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents embody the entire agreement and understanding between the Grantors and the Collateral Agent and supersede all prior agreements and understandings between such parties relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof. Accordingly, the Loan Documents may not be contradicted by evidence of prior, contemporaneous or subsequent oral agreements of the parties. There are no unwritten oral agreements between the parties. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument; signature pages may be detached from multiple separate counterparts and attached to a single counterpart so that all signature pages are physically attached to the same document.

11.2 Waivers by Grantors. Each Grantor hereby waives, for the benefit of Secured Parties:

(a) any right to require any Secured Party, as a condition of payment or performance by such Grantor, to (i) proceed against Company, any other Grantor or any other Person, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security held from Company, any other Grantor or any other Person, (iii) proceed against or have resort to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of any Secured Party in favor of Company or any other Person, or (iv) pursue any other remedy in the power of any Secured Party whatsoever;

(b) any defense arising by reason of the incapacity, lack of authority or any disability or other defense of Company including any defense based on or arising out of the lack of validity or the unenforceability of any of the Secured Obligations or any agreement or instrument relating thereto or by reason of the cessation of the liability of Company from any cause other than payment in full of all Obligations under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents;

(c) any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal;

(d) any defense based upon any Secured Party’s administrative errors or omissions, except behavior which amounts to bad faith;

(e) (i) any principles or provisions of law, statutory or otherwise, which are or might be in conflict with the terms of this Agreement and any legal or equitable discharge of such Grantor’s obligations hereunder, (ii) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting such Grantor’s liability hereunder or the enforcement hereof, (iii) any rights to set-offs, recoupments and counterclaims, and (iv) promptness, diligence and any requirement that any Secured Party protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or lien or any property subject thereto;

(f) notices, demands, presentments, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and notices of any action or inaction, including acceptance of this Agreement, notices of default under the Credit Agreement, the Hedge Agreements or any agreement or instrument related thereto, notices of any renewal, extension or modification of the Secured Obligations or any agreement related thereto and notices of any extension of credit to Company; and

(g) any defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by law which limit the liability of or exonerate guarantors or sureties, or which may conflict with the terms of this Agreement.

11.3 Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO ITS CONFLICTS OF LAW PROVISIONS (OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401 AND SECTION 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATION LAWS).

11.4 Conflicts; Intercreditor Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the lien and security interest granted to the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement and the exercise of any right or remedy by the Collateral Agent hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Company, each other Grantor and the Collateral Agent have caused this Agreement to be duly executed and delivered by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized as of the date first written above.

(b) that the documents, agreements and instruments creating or evidencing the First Lien Collateral and the First Priority Liens shall be in all material respects in the same form as the documents, agreements and instruments creating or evidencing the Second Lien Collateral and the Second Priority Liens, in each case, other than with respect to the first priority and second priority nature of the Liens created of evidenced thereunder, the obligations secured thereby, the identity of the Secured Parties that are parties thereto or secured thereby and other matters contemplated by this Agreement.

(a) So long as the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has not occurred, whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced, the First Lien Collateral Agent and the other First Lien Secured Parties shall have the exclusive right to enforce rights and exercise remedies (including any right of setoff) with respect to the Collateral (including making determinations regarding the release, Disposition or restrictions with respect to the Collateral), or to commence or seek to commence any action or proceeding with respect to such rights or remedies (including any foreclosure action or proceeding or any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding), in each case, without any consultation with or the consent of the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second Lien Secured Party; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, the Second Lien Collateral Agent may file a proof of claim or statement of interest with respect to the Second Lien Obligations and the Second Lien Secured Parties may vote such claims to the extent not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement; (ii) the Second Lien Collateral Agent may take any action to perfect, preserve or protect the validity and enforceability of the Second Priority Liens, provided that no such action is, or could reasonably be expected to be, (A) adverse to the First Priority Liens or the rights of the First Lien Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Secured Party to exercise remedies in respect thereof or (B) otherwise inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement, including the automatic release of Second Priority Liens provided in Section 3.04; (iii) the Second Lien Secured Parties may file any necessary responsive or defensive pleadings in opposition to any motion, claim, adversary proceeding or other pleading made by any person objecting to or otherwise seeking the disallowance of the claims of the Second Lien Secured Parties, including any claims secured by the Collateral or otherwise make any agreements or file any motions pertaining to the Second Lien Obligations, in each case, to the extent not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement; (iv) the Second Lien Secured Parties may exercise rights and remedies as unsecured creditors, as provided in Section 3.03; (v) each of the Second Lien Collateral Agent and any Second Lien Secured Party may vote on a plan of reorganization; (vi) each of the Second Lien Lenders may accelerate the Second Lien Obligations pursuant to the terms of the Second Lien Loan Documents; and (vii) subject to Section 3.02(a) and Section 4.02, the Second Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second Lien Secured Parties may enforce any of their rights and exercise any of their remedies with respect to the Collateral after the termination of the Standstill Period (the actions of the Second Lien Secured Parties described in this proviso being referred to herein as the “Second Lien Permitted Actions”).

Except for the Second Lien Permitted Actions, unless and until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, the sole right of the Second Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second Lien Secured Parties with respect to the Collateral shall be to receive a share of the proceeds of the Collateral, if any, after the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred and in accordance with the Second Lien Loan Documents and applicable law.

(b) Subject to the limitations set forth herein, including Section 3.01 (a) above, in exercising rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral, the First Lien Collateral Agent and the other First Lien Secured Parties may enforce the provisions of the First Lien Loan Documents and exercise remedies thereunder, all in such order and in such manner as they may determine in their sole discretion. Such exercise and enforcement shall include the rights of an agent appointed by them to Dispose of Collateral upon foreclosure, to incur expenses in connection with any such Disposition and to exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured creditor under the Uniform Commercial Code, the Bankruptcy Code or any other Bankruptcy Law. The First Lien Collateral Agent agrees to provide at least five days’ prior written notice to the Second Lien Collateral Agent of its intention to foreclose upon or Dispose of any Collateral.

(c) The Second Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the other Second Lien Secured Parties, hereby acknowledges and agrees that no covenant, agreement or restriction contained in any Second Lien Security Document or any other Second Lien Loan Document shall be deemed to restrict in any way the rights and remedies of the First Lien Collateral Agent or the other First Lien Secured Parties with respect to the Collateral as set forth in this Agreement and the other First Lien Loan Documents.

(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, following the acceleration of the Indebtedness then outstanding under the First Lien Credit Agreement (prompt notice of which shall be given by the First Lien Administrative Agent to the Second Lien Administrative Agent), the Second Lien Secured Parties may, at their sole expense and effort, upon notice to the Borrower and the First Lien Collateral Agent, require the First Lien Secured Parties to transfer and assign to the Second Lien Secured Parties, without warranty or representation or recourse, all (but not less than all) of the First Lien Obligations; provided that (x) such assignment shall not conflict with any law, rule or regulation or order of any court or other Governmental Authority having jurisdiction, and (y) the Second Lien Secured Parties shall have paid to the First Lien Collateral Agent, for the account of the First Lien Secured Parties, in immediately available funds, an amount equal to 100% of the principal of such Indebtedness plus any premium plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon plus all accrued and unpaid fees plus all the other First Lien Obligations then outstanding (which shall include, with respect to the aggregate face amount of the letters of credit outstanding under the First Lien Credit Agreement, an amount in cash equal to 105% thereof). In order to effectuate the foregoing, the First Lien Collateral Agent shall calculate, upon the written request of the Second Lien Collateral Agent from time to time, the amount in cash that would be necessary to purchase the First Lien Obligations.

Second Lien Secured Party is a party) or (B) commence or join with any person (other than the First Lien Collateral Agent) in commencing, or petition for or vote in favor of any resolution for, any action or proceeding with respect to such rights or remedies (including any foreclosure action); provided, however, that the Second Lien Collateral Agent may enforce or exercise any or all such rights and remedies, or commence, join with any person in commencing, or petition for or vote in favor of any resolution for, any such action or proceeding, after a period of 120 days has elapsed since the date on which the Second Lien Collateral Agent has delivered to the First Lien Collateral Agent written notice of the acceleration of the Indebtedness then outstanding under the Second Lien Credit Agreement (the “Standstill Period”); provided further, however, that notwithstanding the expiration of the Standstill Period or anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second Lien Secured Party enforce or exercise any rights or remedies with respect to any Collateral, or commence, join with any person in commencing, or petition for or vote in favor of any resolution for, any such action or proceeding, if the First Lien Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Secured Party shall have commenced, and shall be diligently pursuing, in good faith and in accordance with applicable law, the enforcement or exercise of any rights or remedies with respect to all or a material portion of the Collateral or any such action or proceeding (prompt written notice thereof to be given to the Second Lien Collateral Agent by the First Lien Collateral Agent); provided, further that if the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any Second Lien Secured Party exercises any rights or remedies with respect to the Collateral in accordance with clause (i)(x) of the first sentence of this paragraph and thereafter the First Lien Collateral Agent or First Lien Secured Parties commence (or attempt to commence or given notice of their intent to commence) diligently pursuing the exercise of any of their rights or remedies with respect to the Collateral (including seeking relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding), the Standstill Period shall recommence and the Second Lien Collateral Agent and the Second Lien Secured Parties shall rescind any such rights or remedies already exercised with respect to the Collateral;

(ii) will not contest, protest or object to any foreclosure action or proceeding brought by the First Lien Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Secured Party, or any other enforcement or exercise by any First Lien Secured Party of any rights or remedies relating to the Collateral under the First Lien Loan Documents or otherwise, so long as Second Priority Liens attach to the proceeds thereof subject to the relative priorities set forth in Section 2.01;

(iii) subject to the Second Lien Secured Parties’ rights under clause (i) above, will not object to the forbearance by the First Lien Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Secured Parties from commencing or pursuing any foreclosure action or proceeding or any other enforcement or exercise of any rights or remedies with respect to the Collateral;

(iv) will not, so long as the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has not occurred and except for Second Lien Permitted Actions, take or receive any Collateral, or any proceeds thereof or payment with respect thereto, in connection with the exercise of

any right or enforcement of any remedy (including any right of setoff) with respect to any Collateral or in connection with any insurance policy award under a policy of insurance relating to Collateral or any condemnation award (or deed in lieu of condemnation) relating to Collateral;

(v) will not, except for Second Lien Permitted Actions; take any action that would, or could reasonably be expected to, hinder, in any manner, any exercise of remedies under the First Lien Loan Documents, including any Disposition of any Collateral, whether by foreclosure or otherwise;

(vi) will not object to the manner in which the First Lien Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Secured Party may seek to enforce or collect the First Lien Obligations or the First Priority Liens, regardless of whether any action or failure to act by or on behalf of the First Lien Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Secured Party is, or could be, adverse to the interests of the Second Lien Secured Parties, and will not assert, and hereby waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any right to demand, request, plead or otherwise assert or claim the benefit of any marshalling, appraisal, valuation or other similar right that may be available under applicable law with respect to the Collateral or any similar rights a junior secured creditor may have under applicable law; and

(vii) will not attempt, directly or indirectly, whether by judicial proceeding or otherwise, to challenge or question the validity or enforceability of any First Lien Obligation or any First Lien Security Document, including this Agreement, or the validity or enforceability of the priorities, rights or obligations established by this Agreement.

SECTION 3.03 Rights as Unsecured Creditors. Subject only to the limitations set forth in this Article III and in Article VI, the Second Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second Lien Secured Parties may, in accordance, with the terms of the Second Lien Loan Documents and applicable law, enforce rights and exercise remedies against the Borrower and any Guarantor as unsecured creditors. Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the receipt by the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second Lien Secured Party of the required payments of principal, premium, interest, fees and other amounts due under the Second Lien Loan Documents, so long as such receipt is not the direct or indirect result of the enforcement or exercise by the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second Lien Secured Party of rights or remedies as a secured creditor (including any right of setoff) or enforcement in contravention of this Agreement of any Second Priority Lien.

(a) If, in connection with (i) any Disposition of any Collateral permitted under the terms of the First Lien Loan Documents and the Second Lien Loan Documents, (ii) the enforcement or exercise of any rights or remedies with respect to the Collateral, including any Disposition of Collateral, or (iii) any agreement between the First Lien Collateral Agent and the Borrower or any other Grantor to release the First Lien Collateral Agent’s Lien on any portion of the Collateral or to release any Loan Party from its obligations under its guaranty of the First Lien Obligations; the First Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the other First Lien Secured Parties, releases any of the First Priority Liens or releases any Loan Party from its obligations

under its guaranty of the First Lien Obligations, (in each case, a “First Lien Release”) then, subject to Section 3.04(b), the Second Priority Liens on such Collateral and the obligations of such Loan Party under its guaranty of the Second Lien Obligations, shall be automatically, unconditionally and simultaneously released (the “Second Lien Release”), and each of the Second Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the other Second Lien Secured Parties shall promptly execute and deliver to the First Lien Collateral Agent and the relevant Grantor such termination statements, releases and other documents as the First Lien Collateral Agent or the relevant Grantor may reasonably request to effectively confirm such First Lien Release; provided, however, that the Second Lien Release shall not occur without the consent of the Second Lien Collateral Agent in the case of a release under clause (iii) above, if such release (assuming such release was in connection with a Disposition) is prohibited by any provision of the Second Lien Credit Agreement.

(b) Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations occurs, each of the Second Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of each other Second Lien Secured Party, hereby appoints the First Lien Collateral Agent, and any officer or agent of the First Lien Collateral Agent, with full power of substitution, as the attorney-in-fact of each Second Lien Secured Party, for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Section 3.04 and taking any action and executing any instrument that the First Lien Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Section 3.04 (including any endorsements or other instruments of transfer or release), which appointment is irrevocable and coupled with an interest.

(c) To the extent that the First Lien Collateral Agent or the First Lenders (i) have released any Lien on Collateral and such Liens are later reinstated or (ii) obtain any new Liens from any Grantor, then the Second Lien Collateral Agent on behalf of itself and the Second Lien Secured Parties, shall be granted a Lien on any such Collateral, subject to the lien subordination provisions of this Agreement.

SECTION 3.05 Insurance and Condemnation Awards. So long as the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has not occurred, the First Lien Collateral Agent and the other First Lien Secured Parties shall have the exclusive right after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, subject to the rights of the Grantors under the First Lien Loan Documents, to settle and adjust claims in respect of Collateral under policies of insurance covering Collateral and to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding, or any deed in lieu of condemnation, in respect of the Collateral. After the Discharge of the First Lien Obligations has occurred and so long as the Discharge of Second Lien Obligations has not occurred, the Second Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second Lien Secured Parties shall have the exclusive right after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, subject to the rights of the Grantors under the Second Lien Loan Documents, to settle and adjust claims in respect of Collateral under policies of insurance covering Collateral and to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding, or any deed in lieu of condemnation, in respect of the Collateral. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all proceeds of any such policy and any such award, or any payments with respect to a deed in lieu of condemnation, shall (a) first, prior to the Discharge of First Lien Obligations and subject to the rights of the Grantors under the First Lien Loan Documents, be paid to the First Lien Collateral Agent for the benefit of First Lien Secured Parties pursuant to the terms of the First

Lien Loan Documents, (b) second, after the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, but prior to the Discharge of the Second Lien Obligations and subject to the rights of the Grantors under the Second Lien Loan Documents, be paid to the Second Lien Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Second Lien Secured Parties pursuant to the terms of the Second Lien Loan Documents, and (c) third, if no Second Lien Obligations are outstanding, be paid to the owner of the subject property, such other person as may be entitled thereto or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, if the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second Lien Secured Party shall, at any time, receive any proceeds of any such insurance policy or any such award or payment, it shall transfer and pay over such proceeds to the First Lien Collateral Agent in accordance with Section 4.02.

SECTION 4.01 Application of Proceeds. So long as the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has not occurred, any Collateral or proceeds thereof received by the First Lien Collateral Agent in connection with any Disposition of, or collection on, such Collateral upon the enforcement or exercise of any right or remedy (including any right of setoff) shall be applied by the First Lien Collateral Agent to the First Lien Obligations in such order as is specified in the First Lien Credit Agreement. Upon the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, the First Lien Collateral Agent shall deliver to the Second Lien Collateral Agent any remaining Collateral and any proceeds thereof then held by it in the same form as received, together with any necessary endorsements, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct, to be applied by the Second Lien Collateral Agent to the Second Lien Obligations in such order as is specified in the Second Lien Credit Agreement.

SECTION 4.02 Payment Over. So long as the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has not occurred, any Collateral, or any proceeds thereof or payment with respect thereto (together with assets or proceeds subject to Liens referred to in the final sentence of Section 2.03), received by the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second Lien Secured Party in connection with any Disposition of, or collection on, such Collateral upon the enforcement or the exercise of any right or remedy (including any right of setoff) with respect to the Collateral, or in connection with any insurance policy claim or any condemnation award (or deed in lieu of condemnation), in contravention of Section 4.01 or otherwise not expressly permitted by the terms of this Agreement shall be segregated and held in trust and forthwith transferred or paid over to the First Lien Collateral Agent for the benefit of the First Lien Secured Parties in the same form as received, together with any necessary endorsements, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations occurs, each of the Second Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of each other Second Lien Secured Party, hereby appoints the First Lien Collateral Agent, and any officer or agent of the First Lien Collateral Agent, with full power of substitution, the attorney-in-fact of each Second Lien Secured Party, for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Section 4.02 and taking any action and executing any instrument that the First Lien Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Section 4.02, which appointment is irrevocable and coupled with an interest.

(a) The First Lien Collateral Agent agrees that if it shall at any time hold a First Priority Lien on any Collateral that can be perfected by the possession or control of such Collateral or of any account in which such Collateral is held, and if such Collateral or any such account is in fact in the possession or under the control of the First Lien Collateral Agent, or of agents or bailees of the First Lien Collateral Agent (such Collateral being referred to herein as the “Pledged or Controlled Collateral”), the First Lien Collateral Agent shall, solely for the purpose of perfecting the Second Priority Liens granted under the Second Lien Loan Documents and subject to the terms and conditions of this Article V, also hold such Pledged or Controlled Collateral for the benefit of the Second Lien Collateral Agent and Second Lien Secured Parties including for the benefit of the Second Lien Collateral Agent for purposes of Section 9-313 and 8-301 of the Uniform Commercial Code.

(b) So long as the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has not occurred, the First Lien Collateral Agent shall be entitled to deal with the Pledged or Controlled Collateral in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other First Lien Loan Documents as if the Second Priority Liens did not exist The obligations and responsibilities of each of the First Lien Collateral Agent to the Second Lien Collateral Agent and the other Second Lien Secured Parties under this Article V shall be limited solely to holding or controlling the Pledged or Controlled Collateral as gratuitous bailee in accordance with this Article V. Without limiting the foregoing, the First Lien Collateral Agent shall have no obligation or responsibility to ensure that any Pledged or Controlled Collateral is genuine or owned by any of the Grantors. The First Lien Collateral Agent acting pursuant to this Article V shall not, by reason of this Agreement, any other Security Document or any other document, have a fiduciary relationship in respect of any other First Lien Secured Party, the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second Lien Secured Party.

(c) Upon the Discharge of the First Lien Obligations, the First Lien Collateral Agent shall transfer the possession and control of the Pledged or Controlled Collateral, together with any necessary endorsements but without recourse or warranty, (i) if the Second Lien Obligations are outstanding at such time, to the Second Lien Collateral Agent, or (ii) if no Second Lien Obligations are outstanding at such time, to the applicable Grantor, in each case so as to allow such person to obtain possession and control of such Pledged or Controlled Collateral. In connection with any transfer under clause (i) of the immediately preceding sentence, the First Lien Collateral Agent agrees to take all actions in its power as shall be reasonably requested by the Second Lien Collateral Agent to permit the Second Lien Collateral Agent to obtain, for the benefit of the Second Lien Secured Parties, a first priority security interest in the Pledged or Controlled Collateral.

(a) Until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has occurred, the Second Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the other Second Lien Secured Parties, agrees that, in the event of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, the Second Lien Secured Parties:

(i) will not oppose or object to the use of any Collateral constituting cash collateral under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, or any comparable provision of any other Bankruptcy Law, unless the First Lien Secured Parties, or a representative authorized by the First Lien Secured Parties, shall oppose or object to such use of cash collateral;

(ii) will not oppose or object to any post-petition financing, whether provided by the First Lien Secured Parties or any other person, under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code, or any comparable provision of any other Bankruptcy Law (a “DIP Financing”), or the Liens securing any DIP Financing (“DIP Financing Liens”), unless (a) the sum of (I) the maximum amount of Indebtedness that may be outstanding from time to time in connection with such DIP Financing and (ii) the aggregate amount of Indebtedness constituting principal of loans under the First Lien Credit Agreement and the other First Lien Loan Documents and the aggregate face amount of letters of credit outstanding and reimbursement obligations in respect of letters of credit under the First Lien Credit Agreement and the other First Lien Loan Documents would exceed the sum of (x) the Cap Amount and (y) $10.0 million, or (b) the First Lien Secured Parties, or a representative authorized by the First Lien Secured Parties, shall then oppose or object to any such permitted DIP Financing or such DIP Financing Liens, and, to the extent that such DIP Financing Liens are senior to, or rank pari passu with, the First Priority Liens, the Second Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the other Second Lien Secured Parties, will subordinate the Second Priority Liens to the First Priority Liens and the DIP Financing Liens on the terms of this Agreement; provided that the foregoing shall not prevent the Second Lien Secured Parties proposing any other DIP Financing to any Grantors or to a court of competent jurisdiction;

(iii) except to the extent permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section 6.01, in connection with the use of cash collateral as described in clause (i) above or a DIP Financing, will not request adequate protection or any other relief in connection with such use of cash collateral, DIP Financing or DIP Financing Liens; and

(iv) will not oppose or object to any Disposition of any Collateral free and clear of the Second Priority Liens, or other claims under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, or any comparable provision of any other Bankruptcy Law, if the First Lien Secured Parties, or a representative authorized by the First Lien Secured Parties, shall consent to such Disposition so long as the interests of the Second Lien Claimholders in the Collateral (and any post-petition assets subject to adequate protection liens, if any, in favor of the Second Lien Collateral Agent) attach to the proceeds thereof, subject to the terms of this Agreement.

(b) The Second Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the other Second Lien Secured Parties, agrees that no Second Lien Secured Party shall contest, or support any other person in contesting, (A) any request by the First Lien Collateral Agent or any other

First Lien Secured Party for adequate protection or (B) any objection, based on a claim of a lack of adequate protection, by the First Lien Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Secured Party to any motion, relief action or proceeding. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, if, in connection with any DIP Financing or use of cash collateral, (A) any First Lien Secured Party is granted adequate protection in the form of additional collateral, each of the Second Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the other Second Lien Secured Parties, may seek or request adequate protection in the form of a Lien on such additional collateral, which Lien will be subordinated to the First Priority Liens and DIP Financing Liens on the same basis as the other Second Priority Liens are subordinated to the First Priority Liens under this Agreement or (B) any Second Lien Secured Party is granted adequate protection in the form of additional collateral, the First Lien Collateral Agent shall, for itself and on behalf of the other First Lien Secured Parties, be granted adequate protection in the form of a Second Lien as security for the First Lien Obligations and for such DIP Financing in such additional Collateral and the Second Lien Secured Party will subordinate their Lien to that of the First Lien Secured Party.

SECTION 6.02 Relief from the Automatic Stay. The Second Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the other Second Lien Secured Parties agrees that, so long as the Discharge of First Lien Obligations has not occurred, no Second Lien Secured Party shall, without the prior written consent of the First Lien Collateral Agent, seek or request relief from or modification of the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in respect of any part of the Collateral, any proceeds thereof or any Second Priority Lien.

SECTION 6.03 Reorganization Securities. If, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, debt obligations of the reorganized debtor secured by Liens upon any property of the reorganized debtor are distributed, pursuant to a plan of reorganization or similar dispositive restructuring plan, on account of the First Lien Obligations and the Second Lien Obligations, then, to the extent the debt obligations distributed on account of the First Lien Obligations and the Second Lien Obligations are secured by Liens upon the same assets or property, the provisions of this Agreement will survive the distribution of such debt obligations pursuant to such plan and will apply with like effect to the Liens securing such debt obligations.

(a) The First Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the other First Lien Secured Parties, agrees that no First Lien Secured Party shall oppose or seek to challenge any claim by the Second Lien Collateral Agent or any other Second Lien Secured Party for allowance in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of Second Lien Obligations consisting of post-petition interest, fees or expenses to the extent of the value of the Second Priority Liens (it being understood and agreed that such value shall be determined taking into account the First Priority Liens on the Collateral unless such claim is for cash payments of interest during the pendency of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding).

(b) The Second Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the other Second Lien Secured Parties, agrees that no Second Lien Secured Party shall oppose or seek to challenge any claim by the First Lien Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Secured Party for allowance in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of First Lien Obligations consisting of post-petition interest, fees or expenses to the extent of the value of the First Priority Liens (it being understood and agreed that such value shall be determined without regard to the existence of the Second Priority Liens on the Collateral).

SECTION 6.05 Certain Waivers by the Second Lien Secured Parties. The Second Lien Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the other Second Lien Secured Parties, waives any claim any Second Lien Secured Party may hereafter have against any First Lien Secured Party arising out of (a) the election by any First Lien Secured Party of the application of Section 1111 (b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, or any comparable provision of any other Bankruptcy Law, or (b) subject to Section 6.01, any cash collateral or financing arrangement, or any grant of a security interest in the Collateral, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding.

SECTION 6.06 Nature of Obligations; Post-Petition Interest. The Second Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Second Lien Secured Parties, hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) the Second Lien Secured Parties’ claims against the Grantors in respect of the Collateral constitute junior claims separate and apart (and of a different class) from the senior claims of the First Lien Secured Parties against the Grantors in respect of the Collateral, (ii) the First Lien Obligations include all interest that accrues after the commencement of any Insolvency or liquidation Proceeding of any Grantor at the rate provided for in the applicable Loan Documents governing the same; whether or not a claim for post-petition interest is allowed or allowable in any such Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding and (iii) this Agreement constitutes a “subordination agreement” under Section 510 of the Bankruptcy Code. To further effectuate the intent of the parties as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, if it is held that the claims against the Grantors in respect of the Collateral constitute only one secured claim (rather than separate classes of senior and junior claims), then the Second Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Second lien Secured Parties, hereby acknowledges and agrees that all distributions pursuant to Section 4.01 or otherwise shall be made as if there were separate classes of senior and junior secured claims against the Grantors in respect of the Collateral (with the effect being that, to the extent that the aggregate value of the Collateral is sufficient (for this purpose ignoring all claims held by the Second Lien Collateral Agent on behalf of the Second Lien Secured Parties), the First Lien Secured Parties shall be entitled to receive, in addition to amounts distributed to them in respect of principal, pre-petition interest and other claims, all amounts owing in respect of post-petition interest at the relevant contract rate (even though such claims may or may not be allowed in whole or in part in the respective Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding) before any distribution is made in respect of the claims held by the Second Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Second Lien Secured Parties, with the Second Lien Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Second Lien Secured Parties, hereby acknowledging and agreeing to turn over to the holders of the First Lien Obligations all amounts otherwise received or receivable by them to the extent needed to effectuate the intent of this sentence even if such turnover of amounts has the effect of reducing the amount of the claim of the Second Lien Secured Parties).

(a) The First Lien Loan Documents may be amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified in accordance with their terms, and the Indebtedness under the First Lien Credit Agreement may be Refinanced, in each case, without the consent of any Second Lien Secured Party; provided, however, that, without the consent of the Second Lien Requisite Lenders, no such amendment, supplement, modification or Refinancing shall (i) contravene any provision of this Agreement, (ii) result in the aggregate principal amount of Indebtedness and undrawn commitments and the aggregate face amount of outstanding letters of credit under the First Lien Loan Documents (as so amended, supplemented, modified or Refinanced) exceeding the Cap Amount, or (iii) extend the scheduled maturity date of the Indebtedness under the First Lien Credit Agreement or any Refinancing thereof beyond the scheduled maturity of the Indebtedness under the Second Lien Credit Agreement and provided further that, in the case of any Refinancing, the holders of the Indebtedness resulting from such Refinancing, or a duly authorized agent on their behalf agree in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement.

(b) Without the prior written consent of the First Lien Requisite Lenders, no Second Lien Loan Document may be Refinanced, amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, or entered into, to the extent such Refinancing, amendment, supplement or modification, or the terms of such new Second Lien Loan Document, would violate subsection 7.10B of the First Lien Credit Agreement as in effect on the date hereof and as amended in any manner not materially adverse to the Second Lien Secured Parties.

(c) The Borrower and the Second Lien Collateral Agent agree that the Second Lien Credit Agreement and each Second Lien Security Document shall contain the applicable provisions set forth on Annex I hereto, or similar provisions approved by the First Lien Collateral Agent. The Borrower and the Second Lien Collateral Agent further agree that each Second Lien Mortgage covering any Collateral shall contain such other language as the First Lien Collateral Agent may reasonably request to reflect the subordination of such Second Lien. Mortgage to the First Lien Security Document covering such Collateral pursuant to this Agreement.

The foregoing provisions are intended as an inducement to the lenders under the First Lien Credit Agreement to extend credit to the Borrower and such lenders are intended third party beneficiaries of such provisions.”

“Reference is made to the Intercreditor Agreement dated as of April 12, 2007 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Intercreditor Agreement”), among Borrower, Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as First Lien Collateral Agent (as defined therein), and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as Second Lien Collateral Agent (as defined therein). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the lien and security interest granted to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, pursuant to this Agreement and the exercise of any right or remedy by the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement shall control.”

THIS LANDLORD’S ACCESS AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of May 31, 2007 by and between MTW Lot 3, LLC, having an office at c/o Manekin LLC 8601 Robert Falton Drive, Columbia, MD 21046 (“Landlord”) and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, having an office at 60 Wall Street, New York, New York as collateral agent under the first and second lien credit agreements (in such capacity, “Collateral Agent”) for the benefit of the Secured Parties (as hereinafter defined) under the Credit Agreement (as hereinafter defined).

A. Landlord is the record title holder and owner of the real property described in Schedule A attached hereto (the “Real Property”).

B. Landlord has leased all or a portion of the Real Property (the “Leased Premises”) to SafeNet, Inc. (“Lessee” or “Company”) pursuant to a certain lease agreement or agreements described in Schedule B attached hereto (collectively, and as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Lease”).

C. Lessee and the Collateral Agent, among others, are, in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, entering into a first and second lien credit agreements, dated as of April 12, 2007, (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”; capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement), pursuant to which the Lenders have agreed to make certain loans to Company (collectively, the “Loans”).

D. As security for the payment and performance of Lessee’s Obligations under the Credit Agreement and the other documents evidencing and securing the Loans (collectively, the “Loan Documents”), Collateral Agent (for its benefit and the benefit of the Secured Parties) has or will acquire a security interest in and lien upon all of Lessee’s personal property, inventory, accounts, goods, machinery, equipment and furniture (together with all additions, substitutions, replacements and improvements to, and proceeds of, the foregoing, collectively, the “Personal Property”).

E. Collateral Agent has requested that Landlord execute this Agreement as a condition precedent to the making of the Loans under the Credit Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the premises and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Landlord hereby represents, warrants and agrees in favor of Collateral Agent, as follows:

1. Landlord certifies that (i) Landlord is the landlord under the Lease described in Schedule B attached hereto, (ii) the Lease is in full force and effect and has not been amended, modified or supplemented except as set forth in Schedule B hereto and (iii) Landlord has sent no notice of default to Lessee under the Lease respecting a default which has not been cured by Lessee.

2. Landlord agrees that the Personal Property is and will remain personal property and not fixtures. Landlord further agrees that Collateral Agent has the right to remove the Personal Property from the Leased Premises at any time in accordance with the terms of the Lease; provided that Collateral Agent shall repair any damage arising from such removal as determined by the Landlord in its reasonable discretion. Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any diminution in value of the Leased Premises caused by the absence of Personal Property actually removed or by the need to replace the Personal Property after such removal. Landlord acknowledges that Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to remove the Personal Property from the Leased Premises.

3. Landlord acknowledges and agrees that Lessee’s granting of a security interest in the Personal Property in favor of the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) shall not constitute a default under the Lease nor permit Landlord to terminate the Lease and Landlord hereby expressly consents to the granting of such security interest and agrees that such security interest shall be superior to any lien of the Landlord (statutory or otherwise) in the Personal Property.

4. The terms and provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and assigns of Landlord (including, without limitation, any successor owner of the Real Property) and Collateral Agent. Landlord will disclose the terms and conditions of this Agreement to any purchaser or successor to Landlord’s interest in the Leased Premises.

5. All notices to any party hereto under this Agreement shall be in writing and sent to such party at its respective address set forth above (or at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other party complying as to delivery with the terms of this Section 5) by certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested or by overnight delivery service.

6. The provisions of this Agreement shall continue in effect until Landlord shall have received Collateral Agent’s written certification that the Loans have been paid in full and all of Company’s other Obligations under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents have been satisfied.

7. THE INTERPRETATION, VALIDITY AND ENFORCEMENT OF THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF MARYLAND, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Landlord and Collateral Agent have caused this Agreement to be duly executed and delivered by their duly authorized officers as of the date first above written.

THIS FIRST AMENDMENT OF LEASE AGREEMENT (this “Amendment”) is made this 3 day of May, 2004, by and between MTWE LOT 3 LLC, a Maryland limited liability company (“Landlord”), successor-in-interest to Waters Edge Corporate Campus LLC, a Maryland limited liability company, and SAFENET, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Tenant”).

A. Waters Edge Corporate Campus LLC, a Maryland limited liability company (“WECC”), and Tenant entered into an Agreement of Lease dated June 25, 2003 (the “Lease”), whereby Tenant leased from Landlord (i) that portion of the third (3rd) and fourth (4th) floors containing, in the aggregate, thirty-two thousand thirty-one (32,031) rentable square feet (“Premises A”), and (ii) that portion of the fourth (4th) floor containing eight thousand three hundred forty-one (8,341) rentable square feet (“Premises B”; Premises A and Premises B, with a combined rentable area of forty thousand three hundred seventy-two (40,372) rentable square feet, are hereinafter referred to collectively as, the “Original Leased Premises”) in the building known as Building 1 (the “Building”), a four-story office building located at 4690 Millennium Drive, Belcamp, Harford County, Maryland.

B. Landlord subsequently succeeded to all of WECC’s right, title, and interest under the Lease.

C. Landlord and Tenant desire to expand the area leased by Tenant to include an additional eight thousand two hundred thirty-seven (8,237) rentable square feet on the first (l^s ^t) floor of the Building, and an additional five thousand eighty (5,080) rentable square feet on the second (2 ^nd) floor of the Building, and to modify and amend certain matters respecting the Original Leased Premises and the Lease on the terms set forth below.

D. Unless otherwise defined herein or unless the context requires a contrary meaning, all capitalized terms in this Amendment shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Lease.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the Explanatory Statement, which is deemed a substantive part of this Amendment, the covenants of the parties herein and in the Lease and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, Landlord and Tenant hereby agree as follows:

1. Expansion Space. From and after the Expansion Space Commencement Date, as hereinafter defined, Landlord hereby agrees to and shall lease unto Tenant and Tenant hereby agrees to and shall rent from Landlord, for the balance of the Lease Term, in addition to the Original Leased Premises, that portion of the Building containing (i) eight thousand two hundred thirty-seven (8,237) rentable square feet on the first (1^s ^t) floor of the Building (“Premises C”), and (ii) five thousand eighty (5,080) rentable square feet on the second (2nd) floor of the Building (“Premises D”; Premises C and Premises D, with a combined rentable area of thirteen thousand three hundred seventeen (13,317) rentable square feet, are hereinafter referred to collectively as, the “Expansion Space”), as outlined in red on Exhibit “A” attached hereto and incorporated herein.

2. Construction of Expansion Space. Landlord shall cause its contractor, Manekin, LLC, to finish the Expansion Space in accordance with plans and specifications (the “Expansion Space Plans and Specifications”) to be prepared by the Architect based on a preliminary space plan (the “Space Plan”) to be prepared by the Architect or Landlord’s space planner (the “Space Planner”). Within five (5) business days after Tenant’s receipt from Landlord of the draft Space Plan, Tenant shall approve the same, or shall provide Landlord with its required revisions. If Tenant requires revisions to the draft Space Plan, and such revisions are approved by Landlord, then the Architect or the Space Planner, as applicable, shall incorporate such revisions. Upon Landlord’s and Tenant’s approval of the Space Plan, the same shall be attached hereto as Exhibit “B-1” and made a part hereof. Within five (5) business days after Tenant’s receipt from Landlord of the draft Expansion Space Plans and Specifications, Tenant shall approve the same, or shall provide Landlord with its required revisions. If Tenant requires revisions to the draft Expansion Space Plans and Specifications, and such revisions are approved by Landlord, then the Architect shall incorporate such revisions. Upon Landlord’s and Tenant’s approval of the Expansion Space Plans and Specifications, the same shall be attached hereto as Exhibit “B-2” and made a part hereof. Landlord will pay up to Two Hundred Sixty-Six Thousand Three Hundred Forty Dollars ($266,340.00) ($20.00 p.s.f. of Expansion Space) (“Landlord’s Contribution”) toward the cost of finishing of the Expansion Space. All charges and expenses incurred for work and material respecting the finishing of the Expansion Space (including the cost of space planning and architectural fees) which are in excess of Landlord’s Contribution (“Tenant’s Contribution”) shall be deemed “Additional Rent” and shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord within thirty (30) days after Tenant’s receipt of an invoice therefor. The itemized charges comprising the total cost for work and material respecting the finishing of the Expansion Space (including the cost of space planning and architectural fees), and the portions thereof attributable to Landlord’s Contribution and Tenant’s Contribution (other than those charges payable by Tenant which are attributable to change orders), are set forth on the Charge Sheet (the “Charge Sheet”), which, when prepared by Landlord, shall be attached hereto and incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit “C”. All charges and expenses incurred in connection with any change orders from the Expansion Space Plans and Specifications will be paid by Tenant upon Landlord’s substantial completion of the work called for by such change order; provided, however, that Landlord shall have the right to refuse to implement any change order that, in Landlord’s opinion, would delay the Expansion Space Commencement Date, unless Tenant agrees, at the time it requests the change order, that the Expansion Space Commencement Date shall occur on the date Landlord’s work to be performed pursuant to Section 2 would have been substantially completed had Tenant not made the change order.

3. Expansion Space Commencement Date. The Expansion Space Commencement Date shall be the date on which the work to be performed pursuant to Section 2 above is substantially completed except for items of work and adjustment of equipment and fixtures that can be completed after the Expansion Space is occupied without causing substantial interference with Tenant’s use of the Expansion Space (i.e., “punchlist” items) as reasonably determined by the Architect using its reasonable independent professional judgment, and all necessary governmental approvals permitting Tenant’s use and occupancy of the Expansion Space have been issued, which date the parties expect will be on or about August 1, 2004 (the “Anticipated

Expansion Space Delivery Date”). In the event that the Expansion Space Commencement Date fails to occur by the Anticipated Expansion Space Delivery Date by reason of construction delays or otherwise, then this Amendment shall nevertheless continue in full force and effect, and Tenant shall have no right to rescind, cancel or terminate the same if possession is given within one hundred twenty (120) days thereafter (which period shall be extended for delays resulting from matters beyond Landlord’s reasonable control). In the event that Landlord is unable to deliver the Expansion Space to Tenant on the Anticipated Expansion Space Delivery Date, Tenant agrees that in no event shall Landlord be liable for damages, if any, sustained by Tenant as a result of Landlord’s failure to deliver possession by such date. On the Expansion Space Commencement Date or such later date as Landlord may request, Tenant shall promptly enter into a supplementary written agreement (the “Expansion Space Commencement Agreement”), in substantially the form attached as Exhibit “D”, thereby specifying the date as of which the Expansion Space Commencement Date occurs.

The parties acknowledge and agree that the Anticipated Expansion Space Delivery Date is based on (a) Tenant meeting each and every of the following deadlines (the “Tenant Deadlines”): (i) execution of this Amendment by April 23, 2004; (ii) approval of the Space Plan by May 7, 2004; and (iii) approval of the Plans and Specifications by May 28, 2004, and (b) Landlord meeting each and every of the following deadlines (the “Landlord Deadlines”): (i) delivery of the proposed Space Plan to Tenant within eleven (11) calendar days after Tenant’s execution of this Amendment; and (ii) delivery of the proposed Plans and Specifications to Tenant with eighteen (18) calendar days after Tenant’s approval of the Space Plan. In the event of Tenant’s failure to meet any of the Tenant Deadlines, the Anticipated Expansion Space Delivery Date shall be postponed for the period of the delay. The Anticipated Expansion Space Delivery Date shall additionally be postponed for the period of any other delay caused by Tenant, or Tenant’s contractors, agents and/or employees. In the event that the Anticipated Expansion Space Delivery Date is so postponed, then, for all purposes of this Amendment, the Anticipated Expansion Space Delivery Date shall refer to the Anticipated Expansion Space Delivery Date, as postponed. In the event that the Expansion Space Commencement Date fails to occur by August 1, 2004, due to the failure of Tenant, or its agents, contractors or employees, to meet any of the Tenant Deadlines, or any other delay caused by Tenant, or Tenant’s contractors, agents and/or employees then, notwithstanding any language in the Lease, as amended by this Amendment, to the contrary, August 1, 2004, shall be deemed to be the Expansion Space Commencement Date, but Tenant shall have no right to occupy the Expansion Space until Landlord’s work to be performed pursuant to Section 2 above is “substantially completed” as set forth above; provided, however, that if (x) any such failure of Tenant to meet any of the Tenant Deadlines was caused by Landlord’s failure to meet any of the Landlord Deadlines, or (y) if the Expansion Space Commencement Date otherwise fails to occur due to any delay caused in part by Tenant, or Tenant’s contractors, agents and/or employees, and in part by Landlord, or Landlord’s contractors, agents and/or employees, then the date of August 1, 2004, shall be postponed for the period of such delay which is attributable solely to delay caused by Landlord, or Landlord’s contractors, agents and/or employees.

4. Leased Premises. From and after the Expansion Space Commencement Date, all references to the square footage of the Leased Premises set forth in the Lease shall be deleted and in place thereof shall be inserted the number of fifty-three thousand six hundred eighty-nine (53,689), so that the Leased Premises shall comprise the Original Leased Premises and the Expansion Space.

(a) From and after the Expansion Space Commencement Date, the rent schedule set forth in Section 5 of the Lease shall be deleted and replaced by the following new rent schedule:

(b) Commencing on the sixtieth (60th) day following the Expansion Space Commencement Date (the “Expansion Space Rent Commencement Date”), it being understood and agreed that Tenant will have and enjoy the Expansion Space from the Expansion Space Commencement Date until the Expansion Space Rent Commencement Date (the “Expansion Space Free Rent Period”) without the obligation to pay Basic Annual Rent with respect to the Expansion Space only, in addition to the Basic Annual Rent set forth in Section 5 of the Lease, Tenant shall pay Basic Annual Rent, with respect to the Expansion Space, in accordance with the schedule set forth below:

Basic Annual Rent with respect to the Expansion Space shall be payable in equal monthly installments as set forth above, without any deductions or set-offs, and without demand, in advance on the first (1st) day of each and every month for which payment is due (e.g., April’s rent is due on or before April 1) and otherwise in the manner set forth in the Lease. Although Tenant has been given the Expansion Space free of the obligation to pay Basic Annual Rent with respect thereto during the Expansion Space Free Rent Period, Tenant shall otherwise observe, perform and obey all other obligations on its part to observe, perform and obey during such Expansion Space Free Rent Period, including by way of example, the payment of all sums deemed Additional Rent. If the Expansion Space Rent Commencement Date occurs on a day other than the first day of a month, then on the Expansion Space Rent Commencement Date, Tenant will pay a pro-rated monthly installment of Basic Annual Rent with respect to the Expansion Space and of the various amounts set forth in Paragraph 5.2. for the fractional part of such month.

7. Rent Adjustments. From and after the Expansion Space Commencement Date, the Lease shall be amended as follows:

(a) Section 5.1.(b) shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced by the following new Section 5.1.(b):

(b) “Rentable Area of Premises A” shall be deemed to be thirty-two thousand thirty-one (32,031) square feet. “Rentable Area of Premises B” shall be deemed to be eight thousand three hundred forty-one (8,341) square feet. “Rentable Area of Premises C” shall be deemed to be eight thousand two hundred thirty-seven (8,237) square feet. “Rentable Area of Premises D” shall be deemed to be five thousand eighty (5,080) square feet. Accordingly, the “Rentable Area of the Leased Premises” shall be deemed to be fifty-three thousand six hundred eighty-nine (53,689) square feet. Thus, for purposes of various adjustments hereinafter referred to, Tenant’s pro rata portion shall be sixty-seven and twenty-six hundredths percent (67.26%) (53,689/79,825) (“Tenant’s Portion”).

(b) In Section 5.1(g), the last two (2) sentences thereof shall be deleted in their entirety.

(c) From and after the Expansion Space Commencement Date, in lieu of the amounts set forth in subsections 5.2(a) and 5.2(b), Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent:

(i) Twenty Thousand Seven Hundred Fifty-Nine Dollars and Seventy-Five Cents ($20,759.75) per month as one-twelfth of Tenant’s Portion of estimated Building Expenses (calculated on the basis of $4.64 multiplied by 53,689 square feet); and

(ii) One Thousand Two Hundred Ninety-Seven Dollars and Forty-Eight Cents ($1,297.48) per month as one-twelfth of Tenant’s Portion of estimated Taxes (calculated on the basis of $0.29 multiplied by 53,689 square feet).

8. Summary. The following is a list of the various payments and monthly installments of Basic Annual Rent and additional rent due under the Lease as of the Expansion Space Rent Commencement Date with respect to the entire Leased Premises. Some of these amounts will change during the Lease Term.

9. Security Deposit. Tenant, contemporaneously with Tenant’s execution of this Amendment, shall deposit with Landlord the sum of Sixteen Thousand Four Hundred Forty-Six Dollars and Fifty Cents ($16,446.50), to be held by Landlord as an additional security deposit (the “Additional Deposit”) together with, and as a part of, the Deposit, so that the total Deposit held by Landlord under the Lease shall be $62,840.66. Landlord’s receipt of the Additional Deposit shall be confirmed by Landlord in the Expansion Space Commencement Agreement, and the Additional Deposit shall not be deemed to have been paid by Tenant unless and until Landlord’s receipt thereof is so confirmed.

10. Directory Listings and Suite Plaque. On or about the Expansion Space Commencement Date, Landlord shall, at Landlord’s expense, (i) revise the directories in the Building’s lobby, and (ii) provide one (1) standard suite plaque next to the entrance to Premises C and Premises D. Such directory listings and plaques will bear the name of the Tenant as it appears in the Lease, unless an alternative name is supplied in writing prior to the Expansion Space Commencement Date to and approved by Landlord. Listings requiring more than one line of script on the directory or the plaque may, at Landlord’s sole discretion, be provided to Tenant at additional cost.

11. Right of First Offer. From and after the date hereof, Rider No. 1 to the Lease shall be amended by deleting Section B.(2) thereof in its entirety, and replacing it with the following new Section B.(2):

(2) The lease by Tenant of the First Offer Space, if any, shall commence on the date set forth in Landlord’s Offer (the “First Offer Space Commencement Date”) and shall terminate either (i) on the fifth (5^th) anniversary of such date, or (ii) on the date Tenant’s lease of the original Leased Premises terminates, whichever later occurs, under and subject to the terms of this Lease, except to the extent modified by Landlord’s Offer, with the same force and effect as though this Lease had originally provided for the rental of the Leased Premises and the First Offer Space, except that, unless otherwise provided in the Offer, the Basic Annual Rent applicable to the First Offer Space shall be adjusted during any renewal term in accordance with the provisions of Rider No. 2 below. In the event that Landlord’s Offer is for a term that is longer than five (5) years, then Landlord’s Offer shall be modified accordingly to reflect a term equal to the longer of (i) and (ii) immediately above.

12. Parking. Landlord agrees that, in addition to the Designated Parking Spaces provided for under Section 48 of the Lease, upon the payment of Basic Annual Rent and additional rent provided herein and the performance by Tenant of all the covenants, agreements and provisions of the Lease, as amended by this Amendment, on Tenant’s part to be kept and performed, (i) Landlord shall designate as reserved for Tenant’s visitors, with such signage or other markings to be determined by Landlord, the cost of which shall be deducted from Landlord’s Contribution, four (4) parking spaces (the “Visitor Spaces”) in the approximately the location shown on Exhibit “E” attached hereto and made a part hereof, and (ii) Tenant and its

employees shall, throughout the Lease Term, he permitted, on a first come, first served, unreserved basis in common with other users of the Development, to park in those parking areas indicated on Exhibit A-l to the Lease, which shall include 4.2 parking spaces per 1,000 square feet of Rentable Area of the Expansion Space (including the Visitor Spaces); provided, however, that Landlord shall have no responsibility or obligation whatsoever with respect to the enforcement of Tenant’s right to any such parking spaces, including the Visitor Spaces, and shall have no liability whatsoever liability to Tenant for the temporary unavailability of such parking spaces, including the Visitor Spaces, for any reason outside of Landlord’s direct control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord agrees, upon notice from Tenant that the Visitor Spaces are being used by persons not authorized by Tenant, to use its reasonable efforts to cause the Visitor Spaces to be made available for Tenant’s use.

Tenant represents and warrants to Landlord that Tenant is a corporation duly organized and validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and qualified to transact business and in good standing in the State of Maryland; that the Lease and this Amendment were approved by all necessary parties, were validly executed by all necessary officers of Tenant, and are and remain binding upon and enforceable against Tenant in accordance with their terms.

14. Broker. Tenant represents that Tenant has dealt directly with only Manekin, LLC as the broker in connection with this Amendment and that, insofar as Tenant knows, no other broker negotiated this Amendment or is entitled to any commission in connection with it.

15. Successors and Assigns. The terms, covenants, conditions, and agreements contained in this Amendment shall bind and inure to the benefit of Landlord and Tenant, and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

16. Governing Law. This Amendment is made in the State of Maryland and shall be governed by and construed in all respects in accordance with the laws of the State of Maryland.

17. Effect of Agreement. From and after the date hereof, the Lease shall be amended and in full force and effect in such respects as are set forth in this Amendment, and all other provisions, terms, conditions and riders of and to the Lease shall in all respects remain as set forth in the Lease, in full force and effect and applicable to the Expansion Space.

(a) Tenant hereby acknowledges that Premises C is currently owned by Cromwell III, L.L.C. (“Cromwell”) and that Landlord intends to obtain possession of Premises C pursuant to a lease agreement (the “Premises C Lease”) to be entered into by and between Cromwell, as landlord, and Landlord, as tenant, so that Landlord’s lease of Premises C to Tenant is in fact a sublease. In the event that the Premises C Lease is not entered into by and between Landlord and Cromwell on or before May 28, 2004, then this Amendment, as it relates to Premises C, shall be cancelled as of such date and neither Landlord nor Tenant will have any further liability to the other under this Amendment with respect to Premises C, except that Tenant shall be refunded the portion of the Additional Deposit paid by Tenant to Landlord hereunder attributable to Premises

C. Tenant and Landlord further acknowledge that Landlord and Cromwell are in the process of a sale (the “Sale”) of Premises C and the remainder of the first floor of the Building by Cromwell to Landlord. Landlord represents to Tenant that Landlord intends to complete such Sale, subject, however, to Landlord’s and Cromwell’s agreement upon the terms of, and entering into, a definitive agreement (the “Sale Agreement”) regarding the terms of the Sale. The date on which the Sale shall close (the “Premises C Closing Date”) is anticipated by Landlord to be on or about October 1, 2004.

(b) Tenant and Landlord hereby agree that (i) with respect to Premises C, the Lease is subject in all respects to the Premises C Lease, and (ii) in the event that the Sale is not consummated on or before November 1, 2004, Tenant’s sublease of Premises C by Landlord to Tenant, shall automatically, without further action on the part of any party, be deemed a direct lease between Cromwell, as landlord, and Tenant, as tenant, upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Lease, as amended by this Amendment, as the same may be applicable to Premises C; provided, however, that in such event Tenant shall promptly execute such further appropriate document(s) as Cromwell and/or Landlord may require in order to effectuate the intent of this Section 18.

(c) Landlord shall use its reasonable efforts to cause Cromwell to (i) execute the Premises C Lease, whereby Cromwell shall agree, in the event the Sale is not consummated for any reason, to be bound by the terms of the Lease, as amended by this Amendment, and (ii) execute the Sale Agreement, both on or before May 28, 2004. In the event that Landlord and Cromwell do not execute the Sale Agreement on or before May 28, 2004, then, provided Tenant is not in default of its obligations hereunder, Tenant shall have the option of canceling this Amendment, at Tenant’s option either in its entirety or only as this Amendment relates to Premises C, by giving its written notice of cancellation to Landlord within five (5) business days after May 28, 2004, in which event this Amendment will be cancelled (either in its entirety or only as this Amendment relates to Premises C, as determined by Tenant) as of the date of such written notice, and neither Landlord nor Tenant will have any further liability to the other under this Amendment if cancelled in its entirety, or with respect to Premises C, if cancelled with respect to Premises C only, except that Tenant shall be refunded the Additional Deposit paid by Tenant to Landlord hereunder, or portion thereof attributable to Premises C, as the case may be. Tenant agrees that in no event shall Landlord be liable for damages, if any, sustained by Tenant as a result of Landlord’s failure to cause Cromwell to enter into either the Premises C Lease or Sale Agreement.

(d) Landlord hereby agrees in the event that the Sale is not consummated on or before November 1, 2004, Landlord shall cooperate with Cromwell and Tenant in all reasonable respects in order to effectuate the intent of this Section 18, including, by way of example, by remitting to Cromwell such portion of the Deposit as may be attributable to Premises C.

A. (1) Provided that the Sale is consummated as contemplated by Section 18 above, if at anytime during the term of the Lease, Landlord shall desire to sell any of the condominium units owned by Landlord in the Building (collectively, the “First Offer Space”), Tenant shall have the right of first offer (the “First Offer Right”), to purchase the First Offer Space

for the same purchase price (the “Purchase Price”), and other terms and conditions, as are set forth in a notice from Landlord to Tenant (“Landlord’s Offer”), such Landlord’s Offer to reflect then current market value of the First Offer Space, in Landlord’s reasonable judgment.

(2) Tenant’s exercise of its First Offer Right shall be effective only upon written notification by Tenant to Landlord of Tenant’s exercise of the First Offer Right (the “Notice”) and its acceptance of the terms set forth in Landlord’s Offer. Such notification must be given to Landlord before the close of business on the fifth (5th) full business day after Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s Offer (provided, however, that in no event shall Tenant’s First Offer Right apply to (i) a sale of the First Offer Space, or ownership interest therein, together with any other property, or ownership interest in property, of Landlord, or that of any parent, subsidiary, affiliate, principal, or member of Landlord, (ii) any sale or other transfer of the First Offer Space, or ownership interest therein, in connection with any internal reorganization or other such transaction resulting in the transfer of the First Offer Space, or ownership interest therein, from Landlord to a parent, subsidiary, affiliate, principal, or member of Landlord, or between any such parties, or (iii) any sale of the First Offer Space, or ownership interest therein, arising out of a foreclosure, bankruptcy, judicial decree, or other such similar circumstance). Landlord’s Offer shall set forth the terms of such third party offer or which Landlord is willing to accept. Time is of the essence with respect to Tenant’s exercise of its rights under this Section 19, and Tenant acknowledges that Landlord requires strict adherence to the requirement that the Notice be timely made and in writing.

(3) In the event Tenant fails to so notify Landlord within said five (5) business day period, Landlord shall be free to offer said First Offer Space to a third party on any terms whatsoever, and this First Offer Right shall be null and void and of no further force and effect.

(4) In the event that the First Offer Right is exercised by Tenant, as promptly as is practicable after its giving of the Notice, Tenant shall order title and arrange for closing. Closing (the “Closing”) on Tenant’s purchase of the First Offer Space shall be held as close to the date of the Notice as is reasonable under the circumstances. Prior to the date of Closing, Landlord shall bear the risk of loss from condemnation, fire or other casualty but subject, nevertheless, to the terms of the Lease, as amended by this Amendment. At the Closing, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the total purchase price, in cash. All costs and expenses of transfer, preparation of deeds, title search, title insurance and all other costs associated with the purchase and sale of the First Offer Space and/or incident to the Closing, shall be paid for by Tenant to the end that the Purchase Price shall be totally net to Landlord.

(5) Landlord agrees to convey marketable title to the First Offer Space (including the easements and rights appurtenant thereto), by special warranty deed, free and clear of all monetary liens, subject, however, to all other matters of record with respect to the First Offer Space, and any liens or encumbrances created by Tenant during the term of this Lease. Such title shall be deemed marketable if insurable at standard rates by a recognized title insurance company licensed to do business in the State of Maryland. If Landlord cannot convey title as aforesaid, Landlord shall utilize its reasonable efforts to cure such title defects within a reasonable period of time not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days. Should the Landlord be unable, using its reasonable efforts, to cure such title defects within such one hundred eighty (180) day period, then

Tenant may, by written notice to Landlord, elect to (i) waive said title defects and proceed to Closing, or (ii) terminate this First Offer Right. In the event that Tenant elects to terminate this First Offer Right as aforesaid, Landlord shall have no further liability to Tenant for such unremedied title defects.

(6) Upon the completion of the purchase under this First Offer Right but not prior thereto (whether or not any delay in the completion of or the failure to complete such purchase shall be the fault of Landlord), this Lease and all obligations hereunder (including the obligation to pay Rent) shall terminate with respect to the Leased Premises, except with respect to obligations and liabilities of Tenant, actual or contingent, under this Lease which arose on or prior to such date of purchase, all of which obligations and liabilities shall survive such purchase.

(7) If Tenant fails or refuses to purchase or pay for the First Offer Space in accordance with, and by the time required by this Section 19, then, Tenant shall have no further rights whatsoever under this Section 19, and the First Offer Right shall be terminated, null and void. In addition to the rights and remedies available to Landlord at law or in equity, Landlord shall have the right to enforce specific performance of Tenant’s obligations to purchase and pay for the First Offer Space in accordance with this Rider.

(8) This First Offer Right is personal to Tenant and shall not be separated from the Lease or transferred by Tenant independently of the leasehold interest without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent of Landlord will be given solely within the discretion of Landlord.

B. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 19, the following provisions shall apply to the First Offer Right and to Tenant’s purchase, if any, of the First Offer Space:

(1) Tenant shall not be entitled to exercise the rights accorded to Tenant in this Section 19, unless on the date Tenant gives Landlord its Notice and on the date of Closing, Tenant is in possession of the Leased Premises and Tenant is not in default of this Lease.

(2) The First Offer Space shall be delivered to Tenant in “AS IS” condition, unless otherwise set forth in Landlord’s Offer.

(3) Exercise of this First Offer Right shall not cause the Lease, as amended by this Amendment, to terminate.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Landlord and Tenant have respectively signed and sealed this First Amendment of Lease Agreement as of the day and year first above written.

(b) From and after the Second Expansion Space Commencement Date, in lieu of the amounts set forth in subsections 5.2(a) and 5.2(b), Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent:

(i) Twenty-Three Thousand Seven Hundred Forty-Six Dollars and Seventy-Five Cents ($23,746.75) per month as one-twelfth of Tenant’s Portion of estimated Building Expenses (calculated on the basis of $4.64 multiplied by 61,414 square feet); and

(ii) One Thousand Four Hundred Eighty-Four Dollars and Seventeen Cents ($1,484.17) per month as one-twelfth of Tenant’s Portion of estimated Taxes (calculated on the basis of $0.29 multiplied by 61,414 square feet).

Landlord’s receipt of the Second Additional Deposit shall be confirmed by Landlord in the Second Expansion Space Commencement Agreement, and the Second Additional Deposit shall not be deemed to have been paid by Tenant unless and until Landlord’s receipt thereof is so confirmed.

(a) The parties acknowledge that Landlord, at Tenant’s request, in order to accommodate Tenant’s expansion needs within the Building, is in the process of acquiring the real property known as Condominium Unit 100 in the Building (in which Premises C and E are located) from 1020 Cromwell III, L.L.C. (“Cromwell”). The parties further acknowledge that as a direct result of such acquisition, Landlord will incur substantial costs, of which Tenant has agreed to reimburse Landlord the amount of Six Hundred Twenty Thousand Dollars ($620,000.00) through the payment of additional rent.

(b) Accordingly, Landlord and Tenant hereby agree that Tenant, in consideration of Landlord’s acquisition of said Unit 100, shall reimburse Landlord for said $620,000.00 (the “Reimbursement Amount”) in additional costs. Such reimbursement shall be made by Tenant to Landlord in consecutive equal monthly installments, in an amount equal to the quotient of (i) $620,000.00, divided by (ii) the number of full calendar months remaining in the Lease Term as of the Exchange Closing Date (e.g., if 100 months remain as of the Exchange Closing Date, the monthly payment amount shall be $6,200.00). Such monthly installments shall be deemed Additional Rent, and shall be due and payable to Landlord commencing on the first (1st) day of the first (1st) full calendar month following the Exchange Closing Date and thereafter, on the first day of each and every month for the balance of the Lease Term, which amounts shall be paid to Landlord at the same time and in the same manner as monthly installments of Basic Annual Rent.

(a) Landlord anticipates that the State of Maryland (the “State”) and/or Harford County, Maryland (the “County”) (or certain agencies thereof) will provide Landlord with a grant (the “Grant”), of up to One Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($150,000.00), in consideration of, among other things, certain improvements made, or to be made, by Landlord, or its affiliate, to U.S. Route .40.

(b) Landlord hereby agrees that upon Landlord’s receipt from the State and/or County of the Grant, the monthly installments of Basic Annual Rent to be paid by Tenant pursuant to Section 5 of the Lease shall, from and after the later of (x) the Exchange Closing Date, or (y) the date of the Grant, be reduced (the “Reduction”) by the quotient of (i) $150,000, divided by (ii) the number of full calendar months remaining in the Lease Term as of the Exchange Closing Date (or date of the Grant, if later) (e.g., if the Grant is $150,000, and 100 months remain in the Lease Term, the Reduction shall be $1,500 per month). Promptly upon Landlord’s receipt of the Grant, Landlord shall notify Tenant, and the parties shall enter into a supplementary agreement setting forth Tenant’s Basic Annual Rent for the remainder of the Lease Term after application of the Reduction.

(b) Tenant hereby acknowledges that both Premises C and Premises E are currently owned by Cromwell, and that Landlord intends to obtain possession of Premises C, prior to the Exchange Closing Date, pursuant to a lease agreement (the “Premises C Lease”) to be entered into by and between Cromwell, as landlord, and Landlord, as tenant, so that Landlord’s lease of Premises C to Tenant prior to the Exchange Closing Date is in fact a sublease. Tenant and Landlord further acknowledge that Landlord and Cromwell are in the process of effectuating a transaction (the “Exchange”) whereby, among other things, Premises C and Premises E are to acquired by Landlord from Cromwell. Landlord represents to Tenant that Landlord intends to complete such Exchange, subject, however, to Landlord’s and Cromwell’s agreement upon the terms of, and entering into, a definitive agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) regarding the terms of the Exchange. The date on which the Exchange shall close (the “Exchange Closing Date”) is anticipated by Landlord to be on or about February 28, 2005.

(c) Tenant and Landlord hereby agree that (i) with respect to Premises C, the Lease is subject in all respects to the Premises C Lease, and (ii) in the event that the Exchange is not consummated on or before April 30, 2005, Tenant’s sublease of Premises C from Landlord shall automatically, without further action on the part of any party, be deemed a direct lease between Cromwell, as landlord, and Tenant, as tenant, upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Lease, as amended by this Amendment, as the same may be applicable to Premises C; provided, however, that in such event Tenant shall promptly execute such further appropriate document(s) as Cromwell and/or Landlord may require in order to effectuate the intent of this Section 12.

(d) Landlord shall use its reasonable efforts to cause Cromwell to (i) execute the Premises C Lease, whereby Cromwell shall agree, in the event the Exchange is not consummated for any reason, to be bound by the terms of the Lease, as amended by this Amendment, and (ii) execute the Exchange Agreement, both on or before June 15, 2004. In the event that Landlord and Cromwell do not execute the Exchange Agreement on or before June 15, 2004, then, provided Tenant is not in default of its obligations hereunder, Tenant shall have the option of canceling this Amendment, at Tenant’s option, either in its entirety or solely as this Amendment relates to Premises C and Premises E, by giving its written notice of cancellation to Landlord within five (5) business days after June 15, 2004, in which event this Amendment will be cancelled (either in its entirety or solely as this Amendment relates to Premises C and Premises E, as determined by Tenant) as of the date of such written notice, and neither Landlord nor Tenant will have any further liability to the other under this Amendment if cancelled in its

entirety, or with respect to Premises C and Premises E, if cancelled with respect to Premises C and Premises E only, except that Tenant shall be refunded the Additional Deposit paid by Tenant to Landlord under the First Amendment and the Second Additional Deposit paid by Tenant to Landlord hereunder, or portions thereof attributable to Premises C and Premises E, as the case may be. Tenant agrees that in no event shall Landlord be liable for damages, if any, sustained by Tenant as a result of Landlord’s failure to cause Cromwell to enter into either the Premises C Lease or Exchange Agreement.

(e) Landlord hereby agrees in the event that the Exchange is not consummated on or before April 30, 2005, Landlord shall cooperate with Cromwell and Tenant in all reasonable respects in order to effectuate the intent of this Section 18, including, by way of example, by remitting to Cromwell such portion of the Deposit as may be attributable to Premises C.

16. Governing Law. This Amendment is made in the State of Maryland and shall be governed by and construed in all respects in accordance with the laws of the State of Maryland.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the Explanatory Statement, which is deemed a substantive part of this Amendment, the covenants of the parties herein and in the Lease and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which arc hereby acknowledged, Landlord and Tenant hereby agree as follows:

1. Third Expansion Space. From and after the Third Expansion Space Commencement Date, as hereinafter defined, Landlord hereby agrees to and shall lease unto Tenant and Tenant hereby agrees to and shall rent from Landlord, for the balance of the Lease Term, in addition to the Leased Premises, that portion of the Building containing one thousand four hundred sixteen (1,416) rentable square feet on the first (1^st) floor of the Building (hereinafter sometimes referred to as either “Premises F” or the “Third Expansion Space”), as outlined in red on Exhibit “A” attached hereto and incorporated herein.

2. Construction of Third Expansion Space. Landlord shall cause its contractor, Manekin, LLC, to finish the Third Expansion Space in accordance with plans and specifications (the “Third Expansion Space Plans and Specifications”) to be prepared by the Architect based on the space plan (the “Third Expansion Space Plan”) attached hereto as Exhibit “B-1” and incorporated herein. Within five (5) business days after Tenant’s receipt from Landlord of the draft Third Expansion Space Plans and Specifications, Tenant shall approve the same, or shall provide Landlord with its required revisions. If Tenant requires revisions to the draft Third Expansion Space Plans and Specifications, and such revisions are approved by Landlord, then the Architect shall incorporate such revisions. Upon Landlord’s and Tenant’s approval of the Third Expansion Space Plans and Specifications, the same shall be attached hereto as Exhibit “B-2” and made a part hereof. Landlord will pay up to Twenty-Eight Thousand Three Hundred Twenty Dollars ($28,320.00) ($20.00 p.s.f. of Third Expansion Space) (“Landlord’s Third Expansion Space Contribution”) toward the cost of finishing of the Third Expansion Space. All charges and expenses incurred for work and material respecting the finishing of the Third Expansion Space (including the cost of space planning and architectural fees) which are in excess of Landlord’s Third Expansion Space Contribution (“Tenant’s Third Expansion Space Contribution”) shall be deemed “Additional Rent” and shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord within thirty (30) days after Tenant’s receipt of an invoice therefor. The itemized charges comprising the total cost for work and material respecting the finishing of the Third Expansion Space (including the cost of space planning and architectural fees), and the portions thereof attributable to Landlord’s Third Expansion Space Contribution and Tenant’s Third Expansion Space Contribution (other than those charges payable by Tenant which are attributable to change orders), are set forth on the Charge Sheet (the “Charge Sheet”), which, when prepared by Landlord, shall be attached hereto and incorporated by reference

herein as Exhibit “C”. All charges and expenses incurred in connection with any change orders from the Third Expansion Space Plans and Specifications will be paid by Tenant upon Landlord’s substantial completion of the work called for by such change order; provided, however, that Landlord shall have the right to refuse to implement any change order that, in Landlord’s opinion, would delay the Third Expansion Space Commencement Date, unless Tenant agrees, at the time it requests the change order, that the Third Expansion Space Commencement Date shall occur on the date Landlord’s work to be performed pursuant to this Section 2 would have been substantially completed had Tenant not made the change order.

3. Third Expansion Space Commencement Date. The “Third Expansion Space Commencement Date” shall be the date on which the work to be performed by Landlord (or its contractor) pursuant to Section 2 above is substantially completed except for items of work and adjustment of equipment and fixtures that can be completed after the Third Expansion Space is occupied without causing substantial interference with Tenant’s use of the Third Expansion Space (i.e., “punchlist” items), as reasonably determined by the Architect using its reasonable independent professional judgment, and all necessary governmental approvals permitting Tenant’s use and occupancy of the Third Expansion Space have been issued. It is anticipated by the parties that the Third Expansion Space Commencement Date shall occur on or about January 15, 2005 (the “Anticipated Third Expansion Space Delivery Date”). In the event that the Third Expansion Space Commencement Date fails to occur on the Anticipated Third Expansion Space Delivery Date, for any reason, then this Amendment shall nevertheless continue in full force and effect, and Tenant shall have no right to rescind, cancel or terminate the same if possession is given within ninety (90) days thereafter (which period shall be extended for delays resulting from matters beyond Landlord’s reasonable control). In the event that Landlord is unable to deliver the Third Expansion Space to Tenant on the Anticipated Third Expansion Space Delivery Date, or within such additional 90-day period, Tenant agrees that in no event shall Landlord be liable for damages, if any, sustained by Tenant as a result of Landlord’s failure to deliver possession by such date.

In the event of Tenant’s failure to meet any of the Tenant Deadlines, the Anticipated Third Expansion Space Delivery Date shall be postponed for the period of the delay. The Anticipated Third Expansion Space Delivery Date shall additionally be postponed for the period of any other delay caused by Tenant, or Tenant’s contractors, agents and/or employees. In the event that the Anticipated Third Expansion Space Delivery Date is so postponed, then, for all purposes of this Amendment, the Anticipated Third Expansion Space Delivery Date shall refer to the Anticipated Third Expansion

Space Delivery Date, as postponed. In the event that the Third Expansion Space Commencement Date fails to occur by January 15, 2005, due to the failure of Tenant, or its agents, contractors or employees, to meet any of the Tenant Deadlines, or any other delay caused by Tenant, or Tenant’s contractors, agents and/or employees, then, notwithstanding any language in the Lease, as amended by this Amendment, to the contrary, January 1, 2005, shall be deemed to be the Third Expansion Space Commencement Date, but Tenant shall have no right to occupy the Third Expansion Space until Landlord’s work to be performed pursuant to Section 2 above is “substantially completed” as set forth above; provided, however, that if (x) any such failure of Tenant to meet any of the Tenant Deadlines was caused by Landlord’s failure to meet any of the Landlord Deadlines, or (y) if the Third Expansion Space Commencement Date otherwise fails to occur due to any delay caused in part by Tenant, or Tenant’s contractors, agents and/or employees, and in part by Landlord, or Landlord’s contractors, agents and/or employees, then the date of January 15, 2005, shall be postponed for the period of such delay which is attributable solely to delay caused by Landlord, or Landlord’s contractors, agents and/or employees.

4. Leased Premises. From and after the Third Expansion Space Commencement Date, all references to the square footage of the Leased Premises set forth in the Lease shall be deleted and in place thereof shall be inserted the number of sixty-two thousand eight hundred thirty (62,830), so that the Leased Premises shall comprise the Original Leased Premises, the First Expansion Space, the Second Expansion Space, and the Third Expansion Space.

5. Basic Annual Rent. Commencing on the Third Expansion Space Commencement Date, in addition to the Basic Annual Rent to be paid by Tenant with respect to the Original Leased Premises, the First Expansion Space, and the Second Expansion Space, Tenant shall pay Basic Annual Rent, with respect to the Third Expansion Space, in accordance with the schedule set forth below:

6. Rent Adjustments. From and after the Third Expansion Space Commencement Date, the Lease shall be amended as follows:

(a) Section 5.1.(b) shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced by the following new Section 5.l.(b):

Thus, for purposes of the various adjustments hereinafter referred to, Tenant’s pro rata portion shall be seventy-eight and seventy-one hundredths percent (78.71%) (62,830/79,825) (“Tenant’s Portion”).

(b) From and after the Third Expansion Space Commencement Date, in lieu of the amounts set forth in subsections 5.2(a) and 5.2(b), Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent:

(i) Twenty-Four Thousand Two Hundred Ninety-Four Dollars and Twenty-Seven Cents ($24,294.27) per month as one-twelfth of Tenant’s Portion of estimated Building Expenses (calculated on the basis of $4.64 multiplied by 62,830 square feet); and

(ii) One Thousand Five Hundred Eighteen Dollars and Thirty-Nine Cents ($1,518.39) per month as one-twelfth of Tenant’s Portion of estimated Taxes (calculated on the basis of $0.29 multiplied by 62,830 square feet).

(b) Tenant and Landlord hereby agree that (i) with respect to Premises F, the Lease is subject in all respects to the Premises F Lease, and (ii) in the event that the Exchange is not consummated on or before April 30, 2005, Tenant’s sublease of Premises F from Landlord shall automatically, without further action on the part of any party, be deemed a direct lease between Cromwell, as landlord, and Tenant, as tenant, upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Lease, as amended by this Amendment, as the same may be applicable to Premises F; provided, however, that in such event Tenant shall promptly execute such further appropriate document(s) as Cromwell and/or Landlord may require in order to effectuate the intent of this Section 10.

Reference is made to (i) that certain First Lien Credit Agreement dated as of April 12, 2007 (the “First Lien Credit Agreement”) by and among Stealth Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub” and, prior to the Merger, “Company”), to be merged with and into SafeNet, Inc., a Delaware corporation (prior to the Merger, “Target” and, after the Merger, “Company”), Vector Stealth Holdings II, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company (“Holdings”), the lenders party thereto (“Lenders”), and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as administrative agent for Lenders (in such capacity, “ First Lien Administrative Agent”), and (ii) that certain Second Lien Credit Agreement dated as of April 12, 2007 (the “Second Lien Credit Agreement” and, together with the First Lien Credit Agreement, the Credit Agreements) by and among Company, Holdings, Lenders, and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as administrative agent for Lenders (in such capacity, “Second Lien Administrative Agent” and, together with First Lien Administrative Agent, “Administrative Agents”). Capitalized terms used herein but not defined shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Credit Agreements. It is a condition precedent to the Credit Agreements that Vector Capital (“Sponsor”) execute and deliver to each Administrative Agent an agreement pursuant to which Sponsor shall be required from time to time to make certain cash common equity contributions to Holdings in exchange for equity securities of Holdings (which Holdings shall in turn contribute to Company as a cash contribution to capital).

This letter confirms the commitment of the undersigned to make cash common equity contributions to Holdings in exchange for equity securities of Holdings (which Holdings shall in turn contribute to Company as a Specific Equity Issuance or Specified Equity Issuances) in an amount (not to exceed $25.0 million in the aggregate) equal to (x) the amount of any uninsured liabilities paid or payable by Company after the Closing Date in respect of any litigation or investigation relating to the treatment of options issued by Target or any restatement of Target’s financial statements in connection therewith, to the extent such uninsured liabilities exceed $10.0 million in the aggregate and after giving effect to the payment of such liabilities Company has (or would have) less than $25.0 million of cash on hand less (y) the aggregate amount of any equity contributions previously made pursuant to the foregoing clause (x) (and without duplication of the amount of any additional equity contribution made pursuant to the foregoing clause (x)) (the “Commitment”).

The undersigned shall not, under any circumstances, be obligated to contribute to Holdings more than the Commitment. The undersigned’s obligation to fund the Commitment is subject to funding the Loans to be made on the Closing Date pursuant to the Credit Agreements.

Schedule 5.1 – Organizational Chart; Subsidiaries of Company; Inactive Subsidiaries

Company will not file its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended June 30, 2006 and September 30, 2006 or its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 until Company’s review of its accounting for stock option grants and certain other items (as disclosed on Forms 8-K dated September 28, 2006 and January 9, 2007) and the investigation by the special committee are complete. Company intends to file its restated and delinquent financial statements on Form 10-K as soon as practicable after the completion of Company’s review and the special committee’s investigation. Company expects to restate its annual and interim financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2005, December 31, 2004, December 31, 2003, December 31, 2002, December 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000 as well as for the period through March 31, 2006.

Company has concluded that certain option grants made between 2000 and 2005, including grants to directors, officers and employees, were or likely were accounted for using incorrect measurement dates under applicable accounting rules in effect at the time, and that material non-cash stock-based compensation expenses related to these option grants will have to be recorded. As a result, Company, in consultation with Ernst & Young LLP, its independent registered public accounting firm, has determined that Company’s annual and interim financial statements and the related Reports of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm on these financial statements for the periods from 2000 through March 31, 2006 should no longer be relied upon, and that management’s report and the Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm on Company’s internal controls over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004 and 2005 should no longer be relied upon.

Company is performing a rigorous review of the previously issued financial statements in connection with preparing, reviewing and ultimately certifying restated financial statements. In the course of this review, on January 3, 2007 Company identified additional adjustments to previously issued financial statements for 2004, 2005 and the first quarter of 2006 pertaining to revenue recognition. In certain cases where revenue is deferred, cost of sales may also require adjustment. Company has not yet quantified the impact on pretax earnings of these adjustments.

Company determined that as of December 31, 2005, Company had a material weakness in its internal controls, related to the depth of its finance staffing. A material weakness is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. The material weakness pertains to insufficient staffing and technical expertise in Company’s accounting and financial reporting functions. The inadequate level of staffing and technical expertise results in certain accounting processes and controls around the financial statement close and financial reporting processes, the processes for accounting for non-routine transactions and judgmental reserves, as well as certain controls over transaction processing, not being performed correctly, or on a timely basis. As a result of this weakness, material adjustments were identified related to accounting for revenue and costs on certain long-term contracts, restructuring accruals for the exit of operating leases, and the provision for income taxes, as well as various adjustments in other areas that were not as material, either individually or in the aggregate.

In addition, Company has not filed the pro forma information on Form 8-K/A called for by Regulation S-X concerning the acquisition of Eracom.

not part of Company’s standard product, and Company has reserved the right to market the technology. There is no claim of infringement here because Company is not using technology in Sentinel RMS and is presently not planning to do so. Both Ericsson and Company have filed patent applications for the technology.

Additionally, there has been correspondence concerning the trademark dispute described above between Company and SafeNet Consulting, Inc. (USPTO Opposition No. 91167981 (SafeNet, Inc. v. SafeNet Consulting, Inc.)/U.S. Application No. 76/123,874).

On May 18, 2006, Company announced it had received a subpoena from the office of the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York relating to Company’s granting of stock options and that it had received an informal inquiry from the Securities and Exchange Commission requesting information relating to stock option grants to directors and officers of Company, as well as information relating to certain accounting policies and practices. Company is actively engaged in responding to these requests and is cooperating with both offices.

Company has received notice from a former officer of certain potential indemnification claims under Company’s director and officer liability insurance policy relating to the Securities and Exchange Commission inquiry described above.

On and after May 23, 2006, individuals claiming to be shareholders of Company filed multiple derivative complaints in the Circuit Court for Harford County, Maryland, against current and former officers and directors of Company, as well as Company as a nominal defendant. The complaints allege, among other things, state law claims for breach of fiduciary duty and unjust enrichment arising from alleged backdating of stock option grants. On and after June 6, 2006, individuals claiming to be shareholders of Company filed multiple derivative complaints in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland and the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, purportedly on behalf of Company, against the current directors and certain current and former officers of Company, as well as Company as a nominal defendant. The complaints allege, among other things, claims for breach of fiduciary duties and unjust enrichment and claims under Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 arising from alleged backdating of stock option grants and alleged dissemination of misleading and inaccurate information through public statements, including filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Board of Directors directed a special committee of the board to investigate these allegations. This special committee retained independent counsel and other advisers to assist in the investigation. On March 28, 2007, Company entered into settlement agreements and releases with two of the defendants in the derivative actions, Anthony Caputo and Carole Argo. The settlement agreements will become effective as of the date of approval by the courts presiding over the derivative actions, or, if the approval of such courts is not required, the date on which such approval is no longer required.

On and after August 1, 2006, individuals claiming to be shareholders of Company filed multiple securities class actions in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against Company and certain of its current and former officers and directors. The complaints allege, among other things, claims arising from alleged dissemination of misleading and inaccurate information through public statements.

In addition, Company has also received a letter from a law firm, allegedly on behalf of an unidentified shareholder, demanding that the Board of Directors recover short swing profits alleged to be made by officers and directors in alleged violations of Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The special committee also will investigate these allegations.

Subsequent to the announcement of the Merger Agreement, on March 7, 2007, Globis. Capital Partners, LP filed a complaint (the “Globis Complaint”) captioned Globis Capital Partners, LP v. Safenet, Inc. et al., Case No. 2772-N, in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware. The Globis Complaint purports to bring claims as a class action on behalf of shareholders of the Company, excluding the defendants and their affiliates, and names as defendants the Company, its directors, Vector Capital, Holdings and Merger Sub. The Globis Complaint alleges that the director defendants breached their fiduciary duties in connection with the Company’s entry into the Merger Agreement, and seeks relief including, among other things, preliminary and permanent injunctions prohibiting consummation of the Tender Offer and the Merger, granting rescissory damages if appropriate, and an accounting for damages and profits.

On March 14, 2007, the plaintiff in the Globis action filed an amended complaint adding allegations that the Statement contained material omissions and is misleading. Also on March 14, 2007, the plaintiff in the Globis action filed a motion for expedited proceedings. The Court granted the motion for expedited proceedings and entered a scheduling order on March 20, 2007. On April 2, 2007, the Company entered into a memorandum of understanding (“MOU”) settling the action based on certain disclosures by the Company. The settlement is subject to, among other things, court approval. Pursuant to the MOU, counsel for Globis withdrew its motion for preliminary injunction on April 3, 2007.

On March 8, 2007, Joseph Caterello filed a complaint (the “Caterello Complaint”) captioned Joseph Caterello v. Walter W. Straub et al., Case No. 12-C-07-708, in the Circuit Court for Harford County, Maryland. The Caterello Complaint alleges that the plaintiff has brought the action as a class action on behalf of all owners of Shares, and names as defendants the directors of the Company. The Caterello Complaint alleges that the director defendants, among other things, breached their fiduciary duties in connection with the Company’s entry into the Merger Agreement, and seeks relief including, among other things, enjoining the commencement of the Tender Offer and rescission. On March 8, Plaintiff Caterello moved for a temporary restraining order enjoining the defendants from proceeding with the Tender Offer. Plaintiffs’ counsel appeared before the Court and have informed defendants’ counsel that the motion was denied.

On March 12, 2007, the plaintiff in the Caterello action amended his complaint to add additional defendants, including the Company, and to assert derivative causes of action relating to certain stock options granted by the Company in the period from 2000 through 2005. Also on March 12, 2007, the plaintiff in the Caterello action again applied for a temporary restraining order and moved for expedited discovery. On March 13, 2007, the court denied the Caterello plaintiff’s second application for a temporary restraining order.

On March 9, 2007, Charles Miller filed a complaint (the “Miller Complaint”) captioned Charles Miller v. SafeNet, Inc. et al., Case No. 12-C-07-731, in the Circuit Court for Harford County, Maryland. The Miller Complaint alleges that the plaintiff has brought the action as a class action on behalf of all owners of shares, and names as defendants the Company and the directors of the Company. The Miller Complaint alleges that the director defendants, among other things, breached their fiduciary duties in connection with the Company’s entry into the Merger Agreement, and seeks relief including, among other things, enjoining the commencement of the Tender Offer and rescission.

Company has not yet determined the Tax consequences, if any, that may result from matters relating to Company’s stock option practices.

On October 12, 2006, Company received a corporate income Tax audit notice from the IRS for the years ending December 31, 2004, and December 31, 2005. This audit is related to Company’s stock option granting practices. Company is cooperating with the IRS in connection with the audit.

On February 27, 2007, Company extended the Federal statute of limitations for assessing additional Taxes related to FICA and income Tax withholding provisions for the calendar year 2003. In addition, Company will be subject to a payroll Tax audit of the calendar years 2004 and forward. This audit is related to Company’s stock option granting practice. Company is cooperating with the IRS in connection with the audit.

On February 28, 2007, Company notified the IRS pursuant to IRS Notice 2007-18 of its intention to participate in the “Compliance Resolution Program for Employees Other than Corporate Insiders for Additional 2006 Taxes Arising Under IRC Sec 409A due to the Exercise of Stock Rights.”

On February 21, 2006, SafeNet received oral notification of a request to schedule an audit of the sales Tax returns of Rainbow Technologies, Inc. (a former wholly owned subsidiary merged into SafeNet, Inc. on December 31, 2005) for years ending December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2005. The oral notification indicated that SafeNet will receive a letter requesting such audit, anticipated to begin in May 2007.

A subsidiary of Company, SARL SafeNet France, a French company, is currently under an income Tax examination by the French authorities for the calendar years 2002 to 2005. This audit is related to transfer pricing and deductibility of certain severance and redundancy costs paid in 2005. Company is cooperating with the authorities in connection with the audit.

A subsidiary of Company, SFNT Finland Oy, a Finnish company, is currently under an income Tax examination by Finland Tax authorities for the calendar years 2003 and 2004. This audit is primarily related to transfer pricing issues. Company is cooperating with the authorities in connection with the audit.

Litigation with Liquidating Trustee of Global Crossing Estate: SafeNet has been sued by the Global Crossing Estate Representative, for itself and as the Liquidating Trustee of the Global Crossing Liquidating Trust in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York, Case No. 02-40188 (REG), Adversary Proceeding No. 04-01939. The complaint alleges that Cylink, a former subsidiary of SafeNet, received a preferential payment in the amount of $252,373.00 that is allegedly recoverable pursuant to Section 547 of the Bankruptcy Code. SafeNet denies these allegations. The Estate Representative has filed a motion seeking leave to amend the complaint to add an additional count alleging that the $252,373.00 payment was a fraudulent transfer that is allegedly recoverable pursuant to Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code. SafeNet has filed an opposition to the motion for leave to amend the complaint and a hearing has been scheduled for February 14, 2007. The Court has not yet entered an order, but the judge has ruled that he will allow the Trustee to file the amended complaint with the addition of the fraudulent transfer count.

In October 2006, the Australian Government Department of Industry Tourism and Resources (“AusIndustry”) informed SafeNet Australia Pty Ltd (formerly Eracom Technologies Australia Pty Ltd) that it would not grant consent to the change of control in connection with the Company’s Eracom acquisition. The change of control consent was required in connection with agreements between Eracom and AusIndustry concerning two research and development projects: GRA01638 (a security module and intelligent cryptographic adaptor for PCs and associated software and hardware peripherals for high end security of global e-commerce by way of public key infrastructures) and GRA02870 (a system to secure transactions that take place within the network of an organization at an application layer, through complimentary but quite different devices, at the central site and branch level). The AusIndustry Research and Development Board (the “Board”) refused to give consent on the grounds that it had resulted in a material reduction of the agreed national benefits arising from the projects. The Board indicated it was prepared to offer a mutual termination of the GRA01638 and GRA02870 agreements with no further grant payments to be paid, and all grant funds already paid under the GRA02870 agreement, being the sum of $2,737,792, be repaid with interest. The Board reserved all its rights to terminate for breach and require repayment if mutual agreement was not reached. Company will repay the amounts.

Company is in the process of resolving with the Motion Picture Association of America a dispute concerning deliverables under the Forensic Services Agreement Between SafeNet and MPAA dated September 1, 2006. Company believes it can expeditiously cure the alleged breach.

Company is in the process of disputing an invoice with a vendor as described in the letter from SafeNet, Inc. to NASO Technologies Corporation re: Mykotronx P.O. 25648 and 25785; DS-3 Module Chassis Development, dated as of November 28, 2006.

1. Pijnenberg Securelink, Inc. of Delaware has not paid its corporate Taxes of $90,884.58. The filing of corrected annual reports showing reduced number of shares (from approximately 60M to 1 thousand) or by calculating Taxes on the basis of par value should reduce this amount significantly (i.e., likely by approximately 90%).

2. IRE Secure Solutions, Inc. is dissolved in Delaware but has open foreign corporation tax issues in Massachusetts.

The U.S. Department of Labor (Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs) has planned a compliance review of Company as set forth in the correspondence from the U.S. Department of Labor (Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs), dated February 12, 2007, regarding a compliance review of SafeNet, Inc. under Executive Order 11246, as amended,

Section 503 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended, and the Vietnam Era Veterans’ Readjustment Assistance Act of 1974, as amended, 38 U.S.C, 4212, and their implementing regulations at 41 CFR Chapter 60.

An Annual Report (Form 5500 Series) was not filed in 2004 for the Rainbow Technologies, Inc. Stock Option Plan. The plan administrator has been asked to prepare the 2004 Form 5500. The 2004 Form 5500 is also needed for the 2005 Form 5500 to be prepared, audited and filed. Once completed, Company will file the required information pursuant to the delinquent filers program.
