For all purposes of this Agreement (but not for purposes of the preparation of any financial statements delivered pursuant hereto), the equivalent in any Offshore Currency or other currency of an amount in Dollars, and the equivalent in Dollars of an amount in any Offshore Currency or other currency, shall be determined at the Spot Rate.

ARTICLE II

THE CREDITS

2.01 Amounts and Terms of Commitments. Each Lender severally agrees, on the terms and conditions set forth herein, to make loans to the Company denominated in Dollars or in an Offshore Currency (each such loan, a “Revolving Loan”) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Restatement Date to the Termination Date, in an aggregate principal Dollar Equivalent amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount set forth opposite such Lender’s name on Schedule 2.01 (such amount, as the same may be reduced under Section 2.07 or as a result of one or more assignments under Section 11.08, the Lender’s “Commitment”); provided, however, that, after giving effect to any Borrowing of Revolving Loans, the Effective Amount of all outstanding Loans and of all L/C Obligations, shall not at any time exceed the Aggregate Commitment; provided further, that the Effective Amount of the Revolving Loans of any Lender plus the participation of such Lender in the Dollar Equivalent of the Effective Amount of all L/C Obligations and such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any outstanding Swing Line Loans shall not at any time exceed such Lender’s Commitment; and provided further, that after giving effect to any Borrowing of Offshore Currency Loans, the Effective Amount of all outstanding Offshore Currency Loans shall not exceed the Offshore Currency Loan Sublimit. Within the limits of each Revolving Lender’s Commitment, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Company may borrow under this Section 2.01, prepay under Section 2.08 and reborrow under this Section 2.01.

2.02 Loan Accounts. (a) The Loans made by each Lender and the Letters of Credit Issued by the Issuer shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender or Issuer, as the case may be, in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Co-Administrative Agent, the Issuer and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Loans made by the Lenders to the Company and the Letters of Credit Issued for the account of the Company, and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure so to record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the

- 24 -

obligation of the Company hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Loans or any Letter of Credit.

(b) Upon the request of any Lender made through the Co-Administrative Agent, the Loans made by such Lender may be evidenced by one or more Notes, instead of or in addition to loan accounts. Each such Lender shall record on the schedule annexed to its Note(s) the date, amount and maturity of each Loan made by it and the amount and Applicable Currency of each payment of principal made by the Company with respect thereto. Each such Lender is irrevocably authorized by the Company to make such recordation on its Note, and each Lender’s record shall be conclusive absent manifest error; provided, however, that the failure of a Lender to make, or an error in making, a notation thereon with respect to any Loan shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Company hereunder or under any such Note to such Lender.

2.03 Procedure for Borrowing. (a) Each Borrowing (other than an L/C Advance) shall be made upon the Company’s irrevocable notice delivered to the Co-Administrative Agent in the form of a Notice of Borrowing (which notice must be received by the Co-Administrative Agent prior to 12:00 p.m. (Chicago time) (i) three Business Days prior to the requested Borrowing Date, in the case of Offshore Rate Loans denominated in Dollars, (ii) four Business Days prior to the requested Borrowing Date, in the case of Offshore Currency Loans, and (iii) on the requested Borrowing Date, in the case of Base Rate Loans), specifying:

(A) the amount of the Borrowing, which shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $2,500,000 or any multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof;

(B) the requested Borrowing Date, which shall be a Business Day;

(D) with respect to Offshore Rate Loans, the duration of the Interest Period applicable to such Loans included in such notice. If the Notice of Borrowing fails to specify the duration of the Interest Period for any Borrowing comprised of Offshore Rate Loans, such Interest Period shall be one month;

provided, however, that with respect to any Borrowing initially made on the Restatement Date, such Borrowing will consist of Base Rate Loans only.

(b) The Co-Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of any Notice of Borrowing and of the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of that Borrowing.

(c) Each Lender will make the amount of its Pro Rata Share of each Borrowing available to the Co-Administrative Agent for the account of the Company at the Co-Administrative Agent’s Payment Office on the Borrowing Date requested by the Company in Same Day Funds and in the requested currency (i) in the case of a Borrowing comprised of

- 25 -

Loans in Dollars, by 2:00 p.m. (Chicago time), and (ii) in the case of a Borrowing comprised of Offshore Currency Loans, by such time as the Co-Administrative Agent may specify. The proceeds of all such Loans will promptly thereafter be made available to the Company by the Co-Administrative Agent at such office by crediting the account of the Company on the books of LaSalle with the aggregate of the amounts made available to the Co-Administrative Agent by the Lenders and in like funds as received by the Co-Administrative Agent.

(d) After giving effect to any Borrowing or any conversion or continuation of Loans pursuant to Section 2.04, unless the Co-Administrative Agent shall otherwise consent, there may not be more than 10 different Interest Periods in effect.

(e) The Company hereby authorizes the Lenders and the Co-Administrative Agent to accept Notices of Borrowing based on telephonic notices made by any person or persons the Co-Administrative Agent or any Lender in good faith believes to be acting on behalf of the Company. The Company agrees to deliver promptly to the Co-Administrative Agent a written confirmation of each telephonic notice, signed by a Responsible Officer or an authorized designee. If the written confirmation differs in any material respect from the action taken by the Co-Administrative Agent and the Lenders, the records of the Co-Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall govern absent manifest error.

2.04 Conversion and Continuation Elections. (a) The Company may, upon irrevocable notice to the Co-Administrative Agent in accordance with subsection 2.04(b):

(i) elect, as of any Business Day, in the case of Base Rate Loans, or as of the last day of the applicable Interest Period, in the case of Offshore Rate Loans, to convert any such Loans (or any part thereof in an amount not less than $500,000 or that is in an integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof) into Loans of any other Type; or

(ii) elect as of the last day of the applicable Interest Period, to continue any Loans having Interest Periods expiring on such day (or any part thereof in an amount not less than $500,000, or that is in an integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof);

provided, that if at any time the aggregate amount of Offshore Rate Loans denominated in Dollars in respect of any Borrowing is reduced, by payment, prepayment, or conversion of part thereof to be less than $500,000 such Offshore Rate Loans denominated in Dollars shall automatically convert into Base Rate Loans, and on and after such date the right of the Company to continue such Loans as, and convert such Loans into, Offshore Rate Loans shall terminate.

(b) The Company shall deliver a Notice of Conversion/Continuation to be received by the Co-Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m. (Chicago time) at least (i) three Business Days in advance of the Conversion/Continuation Date, if the Loans are to be converted into or continued as Offshore Rate Loans in Dollars, (ii) four Business Days in advance of the Conversion/Continuation Date, if the Loans are to be converted into or continued as Offshore Currency Loans, and (iii) on the Conversion/Continuation Date, if the Loans are to be converted into Base Rate Loans, specifying:

- 26 -

(A) the proposed Conversion/Continuation Date;

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

(C) the Type of Loans resulting from the proposed conversion or continuation and in the case of an Offshore Rate Loan, the Applicable Currency; and

(D) other than in the case of conversions into Base Rate Loans, the duration of the requested Interest Period.

(c) If upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to Offshore Rate Loans denominated in Dollars, the Company has failed to select timely a new Interest Period to be applicable to such Offshore Rate Loans, or if any Default or Event of Default then exists, the Company shall be deemed to have elected to convert such Offshore Rate Loans into Base Rate Loans effective as of the expiration date of such Interest Period. If the Company has failed to select a new Interest Period to be applicable to Offshore Currency Loans prior to the fourth Business Day in advance of the expiration date of the current Interest Period applicable thereto as provided in subsection 2.04(b), or if any Default or Event of Default shall then exist, subject to the provisions of subsection 2.06(d), the Company shall be deemed to have elected to continue such Offshore Currency Loans on the basis of a one-month Interest Period.

(d) The Co-Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, or, if no timely notice is provided by the Company, the Co-Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of the details of any automatic conversion. All conversions and continuations shall be made ratably according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Loans, with respect to which the notice was given, held by each Lender.

(e) Unless the Required Lenders otherwise consent, during the existence of a Default or Event of Default, the Company may not elect to have a Loan in Dollars converted into or continued as an Offshore Rate Loan in Dollars, or an Offshore Currency Loan continued on the basis of an Interest Period exceeding one month.

(f) The Company hereby authorizes the Lenders and the Co-Administrative Agent to accept Notices of Conversion/Continuation based on telephonic notices made by any person or persons the Co-Administrative Agent or any Lender in good faith believes to be acting on behalf of the Company. The Company agrees to deliver promptly to the Co-Administrative Agent a written confirmation of each telephonic notice, signed by a Responsible Officer. If the written confirmation differs in any material respect from the action taken by the Co-Administrative Agent and the Lenders, the records of the Co-Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall govern absent manifest error.

2.05 The Swing Line Loans. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swing Line Lender agrees to make Swing Line Loans to the Company denominated in Dollars from time to time prior to the Termination Date in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed $20,000,000; provided, that after giving effect to any such Swing Line

- 27 -

Loan, the Effective Amount of all Revolving Loans, Swing Line Loans and L/C Obligations at such time would not exceed the Aggregate Commitment at such time; provided, further, that notwithstanding Section 2.01, the aggregate amount of the Revolving Loans and Swing Line Loans of the Swing Line Lender, plus the participation of the Swing Line Lender in the Dollar Equivalent of the Effective Amount of all L/C Obligations, may exceed LaSalle’s Commitment so long as the condition set forth in the previous proviso is satisfied. Prior to the Termination Date, the Company may use the Swing Line Commitment by borrowing, prepaying the Swing Line Loans in whole or in part, and reborrowing, all in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. All Swing Line Loans shall bear interest at the Base Rate and shall not be entitled to be converted into Loans that bear interest at any other rate.

(b) The Company may borrow under the Swing Line Commitment on any Business Day until the Termination Date; provided, that the Company shall give the Swing Line Lender irrevocable written notice signed by a Responsible Officer or an authorized designee (which notice must be received by the Swing Line Lender prior to 3:00 p.m. (Chicago time)) with a copy to the Co-Administrative Agent specifying the amount of the requested Swing Line Loan, which shall be in a minimum amount of $250,000 or a whole multiple of $250,000 in excess thereof. The proceeds of the Swing Line Loan will be made available by the Swing Line Lender to the Company in immediately available funds at the office of the Swing Line Lender by 4:00 p.m. (Chicago time) on the date of such notice. The Company may at any time and from time to time, prepay the Swing Line Loans, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, by notifying the Swing Line Lender prior to 3:00 p.m. (Chicago time) on any Business Day of the date and amount of prepayment with a copy to the Co-Administrative Agent. If any such notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Partial prepayments shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $250,000 or a whole multiple of $250,000 in excess thereof.

(c) If any Swing Line Loan shall remain outstanding at 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on the fifth day following the date of such Swing Line Loan and if by such time on such fifth day the Co-Administrative Agent shall have received neither (i) a Notice of Borrowing delivered by the Company pursuant to Section 2.03 requesting that Revolving Loans be made pursuant to Section 2.01 on the immediately succeeding Business Day in an amount at least equal to the principal amount of such Swing Line Loan nor (ii) any other notice satisfactory to the Co-Administrative Agent indicating the Company’s intent to repay such Swing Line Loan on or before the immediately succeeding Business Day with funds obtained from other sources, then on such Business Day the Swing Line Lender shall (and on any Business Day the Swing Line Lender in its sole discretion may), on behalf of the Company (which hereby irrevocably directs the Swing Line Lender to act on its behalf) request the Co-Administrative Agent to notify each Lender to make a Base Rate Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of (A) in the case of such a request which is required to be made, the amount of the relevant Swing Line Loan and (B) in the case of such a discretionary request, the aggregate principal amount of the Swing Line Loans outstanding on the date such notice is given. Unless any of the events described in subsection 9.01(f) or (g) shall have occurred with respect to the Company (in which event the procedures of paragraph (e) of this Section 2.05 shall apply) each Lender shall make the proceeds of its Revolving Loan available to the Co-Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender at the Co-Administrative Agent’s Payment Office in funds immediately available prior to 1:00 p.m. (Chicago time) on the Business Day next succeeding the date such

- 28 -

notice is given. The proceeds of such Revolving Loans shall be immediately applied to repay the outstanding Swing Line Loans. Effective on the day such Revolving Loans are made, the portion of the Swing Line Loans so paid shall no longer be outstanding as Swing Line Loans and shall no longer be due under the Swing Line Note. The Company shall pay to the Swing Line Lender, promptly following the Swing Line Lender’s demand, the amount of its outstanding Swing Line Loans to the extent amounts received from the Lenders are not sufficient to repay in full such outstanding Swing Line Loans.

(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Swing Line Lender (i) shall not be obligated to make any Swing Line Loan if the conditions set forth in Article V have not been satisfied and (ii) shall not make any requested Swing Line Loan if, prior to 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on the date of such requested Swing Line Loan, it has received a written notice from the Agent, the Co-Administrative Agent or any Lender directing it not to make further Swing Line Loans because one or more of the conditions specified in Article V are not then satisfied.

(e) If prior to the making of a Revolving Loan required to be made by subsection 2.05(c) an Event of Default described in subsection 9.01(f) or 9.01(g) shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to the Company, each Lender will, on the date such Revolving Loan was to have been made pursuant to the notice described in subsection 2.05(b), purchase an undivided participating interest in the outstanding Swing Line Loans in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the aggregate principal amount of Swing Line Loans then outstanding. Each Lender will immediately transfer to the Co-Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Swing Line Lender, in immediately available funds, the amount of its participation.

(f) Whenever, at any time after a Lender has purchased a participating interest in a Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender receives any payment on account thereof, the Swing Line Lender will distribute to the Co-Administrative Agent for delivery to each Lender its participating interest in such amount (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender’s participating interest was outstanding and funded); provided, however, that in the event that such payment received by the Swing Line Lender is required to be returned, such Lender will return to the Co-Administrative Agent for delivery to the Swing Line Lender any portion thereof previously distributed by the Swing Line Lender to it.

(g) Each Lender’s obligation to make the Revolving Loans referred to in subsection 2.05(c) and to purchase participating interests pursuant to subsection 2.05(e) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including, without limitation, (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender or the Company may have against the Swing Line Lender, the Company or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, (iii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of the Company, (iv) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by the Company, any Subsidiary or any other Lender, or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

2.06 Utilization of Commitments in an Alternative Currency.

-29-

(a) The Co-Administrative Agent will determine the Dollar Equivalent amount with respect to any (i) Borrowing comprised of Alternative Currency Loans as of the requested Borrowing Date, (ii) outstanding Offshore Currency Loans as of the last Banking Day of each month, and (iii) outstanding Offshore Currency Loans as of any redenomination date pursuant to this Section 2.06 or Section 4.05 (each such date under clauses (i) through (iii) a “Computation Date”). Upon receipt of any Notice of Borrowing, the Co-Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Revolving Lender thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Borrowing. In the case of a Borrowing comprised of Offshore Currency Loans, such notice will provide the approximate amount of each Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Borrowing, and the Co-Administrative Agent will, upon the determination of the Dollar Equivalent amount of the Borrowing as specified in the Notice of Borrowing, promptly notify each Lender of the exact amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Borrowing.

(b) In the case of a proposed Borrowing comprised of Offshore Currency Loans, the Lenders shall be under no obligation to make Offshore Currency Loans in the requested Offshore Currency as part of such Borrowing if the Co-Administrative Agent has received notice from any of the Lenders by 12:00 p.m. (Chicago time) four Business Days prior to the day of such Borrowing that such Lender cannot provide Loans in the requested Offshore Currency, in which event the Co-Administrative Agent will give notice to the Company no later than 9:30 a.m. (Chicago time) on the third Business Day prior to the requested date of such Borrowing that the Borrowing in the requested Offshore Currency is not then available, and notice thereof also will be given promptly by the Co-Administrative Agent to the Lenders. If the Co-Administrative Agent shall have so notified the Company that any such Borrowing in a requested Offshore Currency is not then available, the Company may, by notice to the Co-Administrative Agent not later than 10:30 a.m. (Chicago time) three Business Days prior to the requested date of such Borrowing, withdraw the Notice of Borrowing relating to such requested Borrowing. If the Company does so withdraw such Notice of Borrowing, the Borrowing requested therein shall not occur and the Co-Administrative Agent will promptly so notify each Lender. If the Company does not so withdraw such Notice of Borrowing, the Co-Administrative Agent will promptly so notify each Lender and such Notice of Borrowing shall be deemed to be a Notice of Borrowing that requests a Borrowing comprised of Base Rate Loans in an aggregate amount equal to the amount of the originally requested Borrowing as expressed in Dollars in the Notice of Borrowing, and in such notice by the Co-Administrative Agent to each Lender the Co-Administrative Agent will state such aggregate amount of such Borrowing in Dollars and such Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof.

(c) In the case of a proposed continuation of Offshore Currency Loans for an additional Interest Period pursuant to Section 2.04, the Lenders shall be under no obligation to continue such Offshore Currency Loans if the Co-Administrative Agent has received notice from any of the Lenders by 4:00 p.m. (Chicago time) three Business Days prior to the day of such continuation that such Lender cannot continue to provide Loans in the Offshore Currency, in which event the Co-Administrative Agent will give notice to the Company not later than 9:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on the second Business Day prior to the requested date of such continuation that the continuation of such Offshore Currency Loans in the Offshore Currency is not then available, and notice thereof also will be given promptly by the Co-Administrative Agent to the Lenders. If the Co-Administrative Agent shall have so notified the Company that any such continuation of Offshore Currency Loans is not then available, any Notice of

- 30 -

Continuation/Conversion with respect thereto shall be deemed withdrawn and such Offshore Currency Loans shall be redenominated into Base Rate Loans in Dollars with effect from the last day of the Interest Period with respect to any such Offshore Currency Loans. The Co-Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Company and the Lenders of any such redenomination and in such notice by the Co-Administrative Agent to each Lender the Co-Administrative Agent will state the aggregate Dollar Equivalent amount of the redenominated Offshore Currency Loans as of the Computation Date with respect thereto and such Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof.

(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, during the existence of a Default or an Event of Default, upon the request of the Required Lenders, all or any part of any outstanding Offshore Currency Loans shall be redenominated and converted into Base Rate Loans in Dollars with effect from the last day of the Interest Period with respect to any such Offshore Currency Loans. The Co-Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Company of any such redenomination and conversion request.

(e) The Company shall be entitled to request that Revolving Loans hereunder also be permitted to be made in any other lawful currency constituting a eurocurrency (other than Dollars), in addition to the eurocurrencies specified in the definition of “Offshore Currency” herein, that in the opinion of the Required Lenders is at such time freely traded in the offshore interbank foreign exchange markets and is freely transferable and freely convertible into Dollars (an “Agreed Alternative Currency”). The Company shall deliver to the Co-Administrative Agent any request for designation of an Agreed Alternate Currency in accordance with Section 11.02, to be received by the Co-Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) at least ten Business Days in advance of the date of any Borrowing hereunder proposed to be made in such Agreed Alternate Currency. Upon receipt of any such request the Co-Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders thereof, and each Lender will use its best efforts to respond to such request within two Business Days of receipt thereof and any failure to respond in such time period shall be deemed to be a rejection thereof. Each Lender may grant or accept such request in its sole discretion. The Co-Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Company of the acceptance or rejection of any such request.

2.07 Voluntary Termination or Reduction of Revolving Loan Commitments. (a) The Company may, upon not less than five Business Days’ prior notice to the Agent and the Co-Administrative Agent, terminate the Commitments, or permanently reduce the Commitments by an aggregate minimum amount of $5,000,000 or any multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof; unless, after giving effect thereto and to any prepayments of Loans made on the effective date thereof, (a) the then outstanding Dollar Equivalent Effective Amount of all Revolving Loans, Swing Line Loans and L/C Obligations together would exceed the amount of the Aggregate Commitment then in effect, (b) the Effective Amount of all L/C Obligations then outstanding would exceed the L/C Commitment or (c) the Effective Amount of all Offshore Currency Loans would exceed the Offshore Currency Loan Sublimit. Once reduced in accordance with this Section, the Commitments may not be increased. Any reduction of the Commitments shall be applied to each Lender according to its Pro Rata Share. If and to the extent specified by the Company in the notice to the Agent and the Co-Administrative Agent, some or all of the reduction in the Aggregate Commitment shall be applied to reduce the L/C Commitment and/or the Offshore Currency Loan Sublimit. All accrued commitment fees and letter of credit fees to,

- 31 -

but not including, the effective date of any reduction or termination of Commitments, shall be paid on the effective date of such reduction or termination.

(b) At no time shall the Swing Line Commitment exceed the Aggregate Commitment, and any reduction of the Aggregate Commitment which reduces the Aggregate Commitment below the then-current amount of the Swing Line Commitment shall result in an automatic corresponding reduction of the Swing Line Commitment to the amount of the Aggregate Commitment, as so reduced, without any action on the part of the Swing Line Lender. At no time shall the Swing Line Commitment exceed the Commitment of the Swing Line Lender, and any reduction of the Aggregate Commitment which reduces the Commitment of the Swing Line Lender below the then-current amount of the Swing Line Commitment shall result in an automatic corresponding reduction of the Swing Line Commitment to the amount of the Commitment of the Swing Line Lender, as so reduced, without any action on the part of the Swing Line Lender.

2.08 Prepayments. (a) Subject to Section 4.04, the Company may, at any time or from time to time, upon not less than four (4) Business Days’ irrevocable notice to the Co-Administrative Agent in the case of Offshore Rate Loans, and not later than 12:00 p.m. (Chicago time) on the prepayment date, in the case of Base Rate Loans, prepay Revolving Loans ratably among the Lenders in whole or in part, in minimum Dollar Equivalent amounts of $500,000 or any Dollar Equivalent multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof. Such notice of prepayment shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and whether such prepayment is of Base Rate Loans or Offshore Rate Loans, or any combination thereof, and the Applicable Currency. Such notice shall not thereafter be revocable by the Company and the Co-Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of any such notice, and of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such prepayment. If such notice is given by the Company, the Company shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, together, in the case of Offshore Rate Loans, with accrued interest to each such date on the amount prepaid and any amounts required pursuant to Section 4.04.

(b) Subject to Section 4.04, if on any Computation Date the Co-Administrative Agent shall have determined that the Dollar Equivalent Effective Amount of all Loans then outstanding exceeds the combined Commitments of the Lenders by more than $250,000 due to a change in applicable rates of exchange between Dollars and the Offshore Currency, then the Co-Administrative Agent may and at the direction of the Required Lenders shall give notice to the Company that a prepayment is required under this Section, and the Company agrees thereupon to promptly (but in no event later than three (3) Business Days following receipt of such notice) make prepayments of Loans such that, after giving effect to all such prepayments, the Effective Amount of all Loans plus the Effective Amount of L/C Obligations does not exceed the combined Commitments.

(c) Subject to Section 4.04, if on any date the Effective Amount of all Revolving Loans and Swing Line Loans then outstanding plus the Effective Amount of all L/C Obligations exceeds the Aggregate Commitment, the Company shall immediately, and without notice or demand, prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans and L/C Advances by an amount equal to the applicable excess.

- 32 -

2.09 Repayment. The Company shall repay to the Lenders on the Termination Date the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans outstanding on such date.

2.10 Interest. (a) Each Revolving Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable Borrowing Date at a rate per annum equal to (i) the Offshore Rate or the Base Rate, as the case may be (and subject to the Company’s right to convert to other Types of Loans under Section 2.04), plus (ii) the Applicable Margin, if any.

(b) Interest on each Loan shall be paid in arrears on each Interest Payment Date. Interest on Base Rate Loans shall also be paid on the date of any payment (including prepayment) in full of all Loans hereunder. Interest on Offshore Rate Loans shall also be paid on the date of any prepayment of Loans under Section 2.08 (including prepayment) in full thereof. During the existence of any Event of Default, interest on all Loans shall be paid on demand of the Agent or the Co-Administrative Agent at the request or with the consent of the Required Lenders.

(c) Notwithstanding subsection 2.10(a), while any Event of Default exists or after acceleration, at the option of the Required Lenders, the Company shall pay interest (after as well as before entry of judgment thereon to the extent permitted by law) on the amount of all outstanding Obligations, at a rate per annum which is determined by adding 2% per annum to the applicable interest rate otherwise then in effect for such Loans; provided, however, that on and after the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to any Offshore Rate Loan outstanding on the date of occurrence of such Event of Default or acceleration, the principal amount of such Loan shall, during the continuation of such Event of Default or after acceleration, bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin plus 2%.

(d) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of the Company to any Lender hereunder shall be subject to the limitation that payments of interest shall not be required for any period for which interest is computed hereunder, to the extent (but only to the extent) that contracting for or receiving such payment by such Lender would be contrary to the provisions of any law applicable to such Lender limiting the highest rate of interest that may be lawfully contracted for, charged or received by such Lender, and in such event the Company shall pay such Lender interest at the highest rate permitted by applicable law.

2.11 Fees. In addition to certain fees described in Section 3.08:

(a) Agent’s Fees. The Company shall pay such fees to the Agent as are required by the letter agreement between the Company, the Agent and the Arranger dated February 28, 2005 (the “Agent Fee Letter”).

(b) Co-Administrative Agent’s Fees. The Company shall pay such fees to the Agent as are required by the letter agreement between the Company, the Agent and the Arranger dated February 17, 2005 (the “Co-Administrative Agent Fee Letter”).

(c) Non-Use Fees. The Company shall pay to the Co-Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a non-use fee on the average daily unused portion of such Lender’s Commitment, computed on a quarterly basis in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter based upon the daily utilization for that quarter as calculated by the

- 33 -

Co-Administrative Agent, equal to the Applicable Non-Use Fee Percentage. For purposes of calculating utilization under this subsection, the Commitments shall be deemed used to the extent of the Effective Amount of Revolving Loans then outstanding, plus the Effective Amount of L/C Obligations then outstanding and shall not be deemed used by a Lender’s Pro Rata Share of Swing Line Loans. Such non-use fee shall accrue from the Restatement Date to the Termination Date and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter commencing on June 30, 2005 through the Termination Date, with the final payment to be made on the Termination Date; provided that, in connection with any reduction or termination of Commitments under Section 2.07 or an increase of Commitments under Section 2.17, the accrued non-use fee calculated for the period ending on such date shall also be paid on the date of such reduction or termination, with the following quarterly payment being calculated on the basis of the period from such reduction or termination date to such quarterly payment date. The non-use fees provided in this subsection shall accrue at all times after the above-mentioned commencement date, including at any time during which one or more conditions in Article V are not met.

2.12 Computation of Fees and Interest. (a) All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans when the Base Rate is determined by LaSalle’s “reference rate” shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more interest being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365/366-day year); provided, that computations of interest for Alternative Currency Loans will be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed if that is the market standard for the applicable Offshore Currency. Interest and fees shall accrue during each period during which interest or such fees are computed from the first day thereof to the last day thereof.

(b) For purposes of determining utilization of each Lender’s Commitment in order to calculate the non-use fee due under subsection 2.11(b) and whether or not the utilization-based additions to the Base Rate and the Applicable Margin are applicable, the amount of any outstanding Revolving Loan which is an Offshore Currency Loan on any date shall be determined based upon the Dollar Equivalent amount as of the most recent Computation Date with respect to such Offshore Currency Loan.

(c) Each determination of an interest rate or a Dollar Equivalent amount by the Co-Administrative Agent shall be conclusive and binding on the Company and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error. The Co-Administrative Agent will, at the request of the Company or any Lender, deliver to the Company or the Lender, as the case may be, a statement showing the quotations used by the Co-Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate or Dollar Equivalent amount.

2.13 Payments by the Company.

(a) All payments to be made by the Company shall be made without set-off, recoupment or counterclaim. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Company shall be made to the Co-Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders at the Co-Administrative Agent’s Payment Office, and, with respect to principal of, interest on, and

- 34 -

any other amounts relating to, any Offshore Currency Loan, shall be made in the Offshore Currency in which such Loan is denominated or payable, and, with respect to all other amounts payable hereunder, shall be made in Dollars. Such payments shall be made in Same Day Funds, and (i) in the case of Offshore Currency payments, no later than such time on the dates specified herein as may be determined by the Co-Administrative Agent to be necessary for such payment to be credited on such date in accordance with normal banking procedures in the place of payment, and (ii) in the case of any Dollar payments, no later than 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on the date specified herein. The Co-Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Pro Rata Share (or other applicable share as expressly provided herein) of such principal, interest, fees or other amounts, in like funds as received. Any payment which is received by the Co-Administrative Agent later than 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) or later than the time specified by the Co-Administrative Agent as provided in clause (i) above (in the case of Offshore Currency payments), shall be deemed to have been received on the following Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue.

(b) Subject to the provisions set forth in the definition of “Interest Period” herein, whenever any payment is due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the following Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or fees, as the case may be.

(c) Unless the Co-Administrative Agent receives notice from the Company prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders that the Company will not make such payment in full as and when required, the Agent may assume that the Company has made such payment in full to the Co-Administrative Agent on such date in Same Day Funds and the Co-Administrative Agent may (but shall not be so required), in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent the Company has not made such payment in full to the Co-Administrative Agent, each Lender shall repay to the Co-Administrative Agent on demand such amount distributed to such Lender, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate or, in the case of a payment in an Offshore Currency, the Overnight Rate, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date repaid.

2.14 Payments by the Lenders to the Co-Administrative Agent. (a) Unless the Co-Administrative Agent receives notice from a Lender on or prior to the Restatement Date or, with respect to any Borrowing after the Restatement Date, at least one Business Day prior to the date of such Borrowing, that such Lender will not make available as and when required hereunder to the Co-Administrative Agent for the account of the Company the amount of that Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Borrowing, the Co-Administrative Agent may assume that each Lender has made such amount available to the Co-Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds on the Borrowing Date and the Agent may (but shall not be so required), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Company on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent any Lender shall not have made its full amount available to the Co-Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds and the Co-Administrative Agent in such circumstances has made available to the Company such amount, that Lender shall on the Business Day following such Borrowing Date make such amount available to the Co-Administrative Agent, together with interest at the Federal Funds Rate, or, in the case of a payment in an Offshore Currency, the Overnight Rate, for each day during such period. A notice of the Co-Administrative Agent submitted to any

- 35 -

Lender with respect to amounts owing under this subsection (a) shall be conclusive absent manifest error. If such amount is so made available, such payment to the Co-Administrative Agent shall constitute such Lender’s Loan on the date of Borrowing for all purposes of this Agreement. If such amount is not made available to the Co-Administrative Agent on the Business Day following the Borrowing Date, the Co-Administrative Agent will notify the Company of such failure to fund and, upon demand by the Co-Administrative Agent, the Company shall pay such amount to the Co-Administrative Agent for the Co-Administrative Agent’s account, together with interest thereon for each day elapsed since the date of such Borrowing, at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable at the time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing.

(b) The failure of any Lender to make any Loan on any Borrowing Date shall not relieve any other Lender of any obligation hereunder to make a Loan on such Borrowing Date, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Loan to be made by such other Lender on any Borrowing Date.

2.15 Sharing of Payments, Etc. If, other than as expressly provided elsewhere herein, any Lender shall obtain on account of the Loans made by it any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) in excess of its ratable share (or other share contemplated hereunder), such Lender shall immediately (a) notify the Co-Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Loans made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment pro rata with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender, such purchase shall to that extent be rescinded and each other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such paying Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. The Company agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off, but subject to Section 11.10) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Company in the amount of such participation. The Co-Administrative Agent will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations purchased under this Section and will in each case notify the Lenders following any such purchases or repayments.

2.16 Subsidiary Guaranty. All obligations of the Company under this Agreement and all other Loan Documents shall be unconditionally guaranteed by the Guarantors pursuant to the Subsidiary Guaranty.

2.17 Increase in Commitments; Additional Lenders. (a) The Company may, upon at least 10 Business Days’ notice to the Agent and the Co-Administrative (of which notice the Co-Administrative Agent shall promptly provide a copy to the Lenders); provided that the Company has not previously terminated all or any portion of the Commitment pursuant to Section 2.07 hereof; and provided, further, that before and after giving effect to the Commitment Increase (as defined below) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom,

- 36 -

propose to increase the Commitment by an amount not to exceed $100,000,000 over the Aggregate Commitment on the Restatement Date (the amount of any such increase, the “Commitment Increase”), to be allocated among the Lenders in a manner mutually acceptable to the Company and the Agent. Each requested Commitment Increase shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $25,000,000 or any multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, and the Company shall not be permitted to make more than one (1) request for a Commitment Increase during any fiscal year of the Company.

(b) The Company, with the consent of the Agent and the Co-Administrative Agent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default or an incipient Default), but without the consent of any other Lenders, may designate one or more other banks or other financial institutions (which may be, but need not be, one or more of the existing Lenders; and for greater certainty, no existing Lender shall have any obligation to increase its applicable Commitment) which at the time agree in the case of any such bank that is an existing Lender to increase its applicable Commitment and, in the case of any other such bank or financial institution (each an “Additional Lender”), to become a party to this Agreement. The sum of the increases in the Commitment of the existing Lenders pursuant to this subsection (b) plus the Commitment of the Additional Lenders shall not in the aggregate exceed the amount of the Commitment Increase.

(c) An increase in the Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.17 shall become effective upon the receipt by the Agent and the Co-Administrative Agent of an agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent and the Co-Administrative Agent signed by the Company, by each Additional Lender and by each other Lender whose Commitment is to be increased, setting forth the new Commitment of such Lenders and setting forth the agreement of each Additional Lender to become a party to this Agreement and to be bound by all the terms and provisions hereof, together with such evidence of appropriate corporate authorization on the part of the Company with respect to the Commitment Increase as the Agent or the Co-Administrative Agent may reasonably request, if any.

(d) Upon the effectiveness of a Commitment Increase pursuant to this Section 2.17, the Commitment amounts set forth on Schedule 2.01 shall be deemed amended, reflecting the increases of the Commitment of existing Lenders and the addition of the new Commitment of the Additional Lenders, if any. Concurrently with the effectiveness of such increase and any additional extension of credit in connection therewith, each Lender shall fund its Pro Rata Share of the outstanding Revolving Loans, Swing Loans and overdue L/C Obligations relating to L/C Advances, if any, to the Co-Administrative Agent, so that after giving effect thereto each Lender, including the Additional Lenders, if any, holds its Pro Rata Share of the outstanding Revolving Loans, Swing Loans and L/C Obligations relating to each Loan to which it is a party, and the Company shall pay to each Lender all amounts due under Article IV hereof as a result of any prepayment of any outstanding Offshore Rate Loans resulting from any Lender’s funding of Loans previously funded by other Lenders.

ARTICLE III

THE LETTERS OF CREDIT

- 37 -

3.01 The Letter of Credit Subfacility. (a) On the terms and conditions set forth herein (i) the Issuer agrees, (A) from time to time on any Business Day, during the period from the Restatement Date to the day which is five days prior to the Termination Date, to issue Letters of Credit for the account of the Company and to amend or renew Letters of Credit previously issued by it, in accordance with subsections 3.02(c) and 3.02(d), and (B) to honor drafts under the Letters of Credit; and (ii) the Lenders severally agree to participate in Letters of Credit Issued for the account of the Company; provided, that the Issuer shall not be obligated to Issue, and no Lender shall be obligated to participate in, any Letter of Credit if as of the date of Issuance of such Letter of Credit (the “Issuance Date”) (1) the Effective Amount of all L/C Obligations plus the Effective Amount of all Revolving Loans and of all Swing Line Loans exceeds the Aggregate Commitment, (2) the participation of any Lender in the Effective Amount of all L/C Obligations plus the Effective Amount of the Revolving Loans of such Lender and such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any outstanding Swing Line Loans exceeds such Lender’s Commitment, or (3) the Effective Amount of L/C Obligations exceeds the L/C Commitment. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Company’s ability to obtain Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and, accordingly, the Company may, during the foregoing period, obtain Letters of Credit to replace Letters of Credit which have expired or which have been drawn upon and reimbursed.

(b) The Issuer is under no obligation to, and shall not, Issue any Letter of Credit if:

(i) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain the Issuer from Issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Requirement of Law applicable to the Issuer or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the Issuer shall prohibit, or request that the Issuer refrain from, the Issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon the Issuer with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which the Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Restatement Date, or shall impose upon the Issuer any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Restatement Date and which the Issuer in good faith deems material to it;

(ii) the Issuer has received written notice from any Revolving Lender, the Agent, the Co-Administrative Agent or the Company, on or prior to the Business Day prior to the requested date of Issuance of such Letter of Credit, that one or more of the applicable conditions contained in Article V is not then satisfied;

(iii) the expiry date of any requested Letter of Credit is (A) more than 360 days after the date of Issuance, unless the Required Lenders have approved such expiry date in writing, or (B) after the date which is five days prior to the Termination Date, unless all of the Lenders have approved such expiry date in writing;

(iv) the expiry date of any requested Letter of Credit is prior to the maturity date of any financial obligation to be supported by the requested Letter of Credit;

- 38 -

(v) any requested Letter of Credit does not provide for drafts, or is not otherwise in form and substance acceptable to the Issuer, or the Issuance of a Letter of Credit shall violate any applicable policies of the Issuer; or

(vi) such Letter of Credit is in a face amount less than $25,000, unless such amount is approved by the Agent and the Issuer or is to be denominated in a currency other than Dollars.

3.02 Issuance, Amendment and Renewal of Letters of Credit. (a) Each Letter of Credit shall be issued upon the irrevocable written request of the Company received by the Issuer (with a copy sent by the Company to the Co-Administrative Agent) at least three days (or such shorter time as the Issuer may agree in a particular instance in its sole discretion) prior to the proposed date of issuance. Each such request for issuance of a Letter of Credit shall be by facsimile, confirmed immediately in an original writing, in the form of an L/C Application (or such other form as shall be acceptable to the Issuer), and shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the Issuer: (i) the proposed date of issuance of the Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (ii) the face amount of the Letter of Credit; (iii) the expiry date of the Letter of Credit; (iv) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (v) the documents to be presented by the beneficiary of the Letter of Credit in case of any drawing thereunder; (vi) the full text of any certificate to be presented by the beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; and (vii) such other matters as the Issuer may require.

(b) At least two Business Days prior to the Issuance of any Letter of Credit (or such shorter time as the Agent may agree in a particular instance in its sole discretion), the Issuer will confirm with the Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Agent has received a copy of the L/C Application or L/C Amendment Application from the Company and, if not, the Issuer will provide the Agent with a copy thereof. Unless the Issuer has received notice on or before the Business Day immediately preceding the date the Issuer is to issue a requested Letter of Credit from the Agent (A) directing the Issuer not to issue such Letter of Credit because such issuance is not then permitted under subsection 3.01(a) as a result of the limitations set forth in clauses (1) through (3) thereof or subsection 3.01(b)(ii); or (B) that one or more conditions specified in Article V are not then satisfied; then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Issuer shall, on the requested date, Issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the Company in accordance with the Issuer’s usual and customary business practices.

(c) From time to time while a Letter of Credit is outstanding and prior to the Termination Date, the Issuer will, upon the written request of the Company received by the Issuer (with a copy sent by the Company to the Co-Administrative Agent) at least three days (or such shorter time as the Issuer may agree in a particular instance in its sole discretion) prior to the proposed date of amendment, amend any Letter of Credit issued by it. Each such request for amendment of a Letter of Credit shall be made by facsimile, confirmed immediately in an original writing, made in the form of an L/C Amendment Application and shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the Issuer: (i) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (ii) the proposed date of amendment of the Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (iii) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (iv) such other matters as the Issuer may require. The Issuer shall be under no obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if: (A) the Issuer would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms of this Agreement;

- 39 -

or (B) the beneficiary of any such letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to the Letter of Credit. The Co-Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of the receipt by it of any L/C Application or L/C Amendment Application.

(d) The Issuer and the Lenders agree that, while a Letter of Credit is outstanding and prior to the Termination Date, at the option of the Company and upon the written request of the Company received by the Issuer (with a copy sent by the Company to the Co-Administrative Agent) at least five days (or such shorter time as the Issuer may agree in a particular instance in its sole discretion) prior to the proposed date of notification of renewal, the Issuer shall be entitled to authorize the automatic renewal of any Letter of Credit issued by it. Each such request for renewal of a Letter of Credit shall be made by facsimile, confirmed immediately in an original writing, in the form of an L/C Amendment Application, and shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the Issuer: (i) the Letter of Credit to be renewed; (ii) the proposed date of notification of renewal of the Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (iii) the revised expiry date of the Letter of Credit; and (iv) such other matters as the Issuer may require. The Issuer shall be under no obligation so to renew any Letter of Credit if: (A) the Issuer would have no obligation at such time to issue or amend such Letter of Credit in its renewed form under the terms of this Agreement; or (B) the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed renewal of the Letter of Credit. If any outstanding Letter of Credit shall provide that it shall be automatically renewed unless the beneficiary thereof receives notice from the Issuer that such Letter of Credit shall not be renewed, and if at the time of renewal the Issuer would be entitled to authorize the automatic renewal of such Letter of Credit in accordance with this subsection 3.02(d) upon the request of the Company but the Issuer shall not have received any L/C Amendment Application from the Company with respect to such renewal or other written direction by the Company with respect thereto, the Issuer shall nonetheless be permitted to allow such Letter of Credit to renew, and the Company and the Lenders hereby authorize such renewal, and, accordingly, the Issuer shall be deemed to have received an L/C Amendment Application from the Company requesting such renewal.

(d) The Issuer may, at its election (or as required by the Agent or the Co-Administrative Agent at the direction of the Required Lenders), deliver any notices of termination or other communications to any Letter of Credit beneficiary or transferee, and take any other action as necessary or appropriate, at any time and from time to time, in order to cause the expiry date of such Letter of Credit to be a date not later than the date which is five days prior to the Termination Date.

(e) This Agreement shall control in the event of any conflict with any L/C-Related Document (other than any Letter of Credit).

(f) The Issuer will also deliver to the Co-Administrative Agent, concurrently or promptly following its delivery of a Letter of Credit, or amendment to or renewal of a Letter of Credit, to an advising bank or a beneficiary, a true and complete copy of each such Letter of Credit or amendment to or renewal of a Letter of Credit.

3.03 Risk Participations, Drawings and Reimbursements. (a) Immediately upon the Issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Issuer a participation in such Letter of Credit and

- 40 -

each drawing thereunder in an amount equal to the product of (i) the Pro Rata Share of such Lender, times (ii) the maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit and the amount of such drawing, respectively. For purposes of Section 2.01, each Issuance of a Letter of Credit shall be deemed to utilize the Commitment of each Lender by an amount equal to the amount of such participation.

(b) In the event of any request for a drawing under a Letter of Credit by the beneficiary or transferee thereof, the Issuer will promptly notify the Company. The Company shall reimburse the Issuer prior to 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time), on each date that any amount is paid by the Issuer under any Letter of Credit (each such date, an “Honor Date”), in an amount equal to the amount so paid by the Issuer. In the event the Company fails to reimburse the Issuer the full amount of any drawing under any Letter of Credit by 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on the Honor Date, the Issuer will promptly notify the Co-Administrative Agent and the Co-Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender thereof, and the Company shall be deemed to have requested that Base Rate Loans in an amount equal to such unreimbursed amount be made by the Revolving Lenders to be disbursed on the Honor Date under such Letter of Credit, subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Aggregate Commitment and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 5.02. Any notice given by the Issuer or the Co-Administrative Agent pursuant to this subsection 3.03(b) may be oral if immediately confirmed in writing (including by facsimile); provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

(c) Each Revolving Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to subsection 3.03(b) make available to the Co-Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant Issuer an amount in Dollars and in immediately available funds equal to its Pro Rata Share of the amount of the drawing, whereupon the participating Lenders shall (subject to subsection 3.03(d)) each be deemed to have made a Revolving Loan consisting of a Base Rate Loan to the Company in that amount. If any Lender so notified fails to make available to the Co-Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuer the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the amount of the drawing by no later than 12:00 noon (Chicago time) on the Honor Date, then interest shall accrue on such Lender’s obligation to make such payment, from the Honor Date to the date such Lender makes such payment, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate in effect from time to time during such period. The Co-Administrative Agent will promptly give notice of the occurrence of the Honor Date, but failure of the Co-Administrative Agent to give any such notice on the Honor Date or in sufficient time to enable any Lender to effect such payment on such date shall not relieve such Lender from its obligations under this Section 3.03 once notice has been provided.

(d) With respect to any unreimbursed drawing that is not converted into Revolving Loans consisting of Base Rate Loans to the Company in whole or in part, because of the Company’s failure to satisfy the conditions set forth in Section 5.02 or for any other reason, the Company shall be deemed to have incurred from the Issuer an L/C Borrowing in the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of such drawing, which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus 2.0% per annum, and each Lender’s payment to the Issuer pursuant to subsection 3.03(c) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 3.03.

- 41 -

(e) Each Lender’s obligation in accordance with this Agreement to make the Revolving Loans or L/C Advances, as contemplated by this Section 3.03, as a result of a drawing under a Letter of Credit, shall be absolute and unconditional and without recourse to the Issuer and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the Issuer, the Company or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, an Event of Default or a Material Adverse Effect; or (iii) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans under this Section 3.03 is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 5.02.

3.04 Repayment of Participations. (a) Upon (and only upon) receipt by the Co-Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuer of immediately available funds from the Company (i) in reimbursement of any payment made by the Issuer under the Letter of Credit with respect to which any Lender has paid the Co-Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuer for such Lender’s participation in the Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 3.03 or (ii) in payment of interest thereon, the Co-Administrative Agent will promptly pay to each Lender, in the same funds as those received by the Co-Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuer, the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such funds, and the Issuer shall receive the amount of the Pro Rata Share of such funds of any Lender that did not so pay the Co-Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuer.

(b) If the Agent, the Co-Administrative Agent or the Issuer is required at any time to return to the Company, or to a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian, or any official in any Insolvency Proceeding, any portion of the payments made by the Company to the Co-Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuer pursuant to subsection 3.04(a) in reimbursement of a payment made under the Letter of Credit or interest or fee thereon, each Lender shall, on demand of the Co-Administrative Agent, forthwith return to the Co-Administrative Agent or the Issuer the amount of its Pro Rata Share of any amounts so returned by the Co-Administrative Agent or the Issuer plus interest thereon from the date such demand is made to the date such amounts are returned by such Lender to the Agent, the Co-Administrative Agent or the Issuer, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate in effect from time to time.

3.05 Role of the Issuer. (a) Each Lender and the Company agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the Issuer shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document.

(b) No Agent-Related Person nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of the Issuer shall be liable to any Lender for: (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any L/C-Related Document.

- 42 -

(c) The Company hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Company’s pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. No Agent-Related Person, nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of the Issuer, shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (i) through (vii) of Section 3.06; provided, however, anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, that the Company may have a claim against the Issuer, and the Issuer may be liable to the Company, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by the Company which the Company proves were caused by the Issuer’s willful misconduct or gross negligence or the Issuer’s willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a document strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing: (i) the Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary; and (ii) the Issuer shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason.

3.06 Obligations Absolute. The obligations of the Company under this Agreement and any L/C-Related Document to reimburse the Issuer for a drawing under a Letter of Credit, and to repay any L/C Borrowing and any drawing under a Letter of Credit converted into Revolving Loans, shall be unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and each such other L/C-Related Document under all circumstances, including the following:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any L/C-Related Document;

(ii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the obligations of the Company in respect of any Letter of Credit or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the L/C-Related Documents;

(iii) the existence of any claim, recoupment, set-off, defense or other right that the Company may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the Issuer or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by the L/C-Related Documents or any unrelated transaction;

(iv) any draft, demand, certificate 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; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any Letter of Credit;

- 43 -

(v) any payment by the Issuer under any Letter of Credit against presentation of a document that does not strictly comply with the terms of any Letter of Credit; or any payment made by the Issuer under any Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding;

(vi) any exchange, release or non-perfection of any collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any other guarantee, for all or any of the obligations of the Company in respect of any Letter of Credit; or

(vii) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Company or a guarantor.

3.07 Cash Collateral Pledge. Upon (i) the request of the Agent or the Required Lenders, (A) if any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, or (B) if, as of the Termination Date, any Letters of Credit may for any reason remain outstanding and partially or wholly undrawn, or (ii) the termination of the Aggregate Commitment, then the Company shall immediately Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations in an amount equal to such L/C Obligations.

3.08 Letter of Credit Fees. (a) The Company shall pay to the Co-Administrative Agent for the account of each of the Lenders a letter of credit fee with respect to the Letters of Credit equal to the Applicable Margin for Offshore Rate Loans times the average daily maximum amount available to be drawn of the outstanding Letters of Credit, computed on a quarterly basis in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter based upon Letters of Credit outstanding for that quarter as calculated by the Co-Administrative Agent. Such letter of credit fees shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter during which Letters of Credit are outstanding, commencing on the first such quarterly date to occur after the Restatement Date, through the Termination Date (or such later date upon which the outstanding Letters of Credit shall expire), with the final payment to be made on the Termination Date (or such later expiration date).

(b) The Company shall pay to the Issuer, for its sole account, a letter of credit fronting fee for each Letter of Credit Issued by the Issuer equal to .125% per annum of the face amount (or increased or decreased face amount, as the case may be) of such Letter of Credit. Such Letter of Credit fronting fee shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter during which such Letter of Credit is outstanding, commencing on the first such quarterly date to occur after such Letter of Credit is Issued, through the Termination Date (or such later date upon which such Letter of Credit shall expire), with the final payment to be made on the Termination Date (or such later expiration date).

(c) The Company shall pay to the Issuer, for its sole account, from time to time on demand the normal issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of such Issuer relating to letters of credit as from time to time in effect.

ARTICLE IV

TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

4.01 Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by the Company to each Lender, the Co-Administrative Agent or the Agent under this Agreement and any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, any Taxes. In addition, the Company shall pay all Further Taxes and Other Taxes.

(b) If the Company shall be required by law to deduct or withhold any Taxes, Other Taxes or Further Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to any Lender, the Co-Administrative Agent or the Agent, then:

(i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that, after making all required deductions and withholdings (including deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section), such Lender, the Co-Administrative Agent or the Agent, as the case may be, receives and retains an amount equal to the sum it would have received and retained had no such deductions or withholdings been made;

(ii) the Company shall make such deductions and withholdings;

(iii) the Company shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant taxing authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law; and

(iv) the Company shall also pay to each Lender, the Co-Administrative Agent or the Agent for the account of such Lender, at the time interest is paid, Further Taxes in the amount that the respective Lender specifies as necessary to preserve the after-tax yield the Lender would have received if such Taxes, Other Taxes or Further Taxes had not been imposed.

(c) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Lender, the Co-Administrative Agent and the Agent for the full amount of (i) Taxes, (ii) Other Taxes, and (iii) Further Taxes in the amount that the respective Lender specifies as necessary to preserve the after-tax yield the Lender would have received if such Taxes, Other Taxes or Further Taxes had not been imposed, and any liability (including penalties, interest, additions to tax and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes, Other Taxes or Further Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. Payment under this indemnification shall be made within 30 days after the date the Lender, the Co-Administrative Agent or the Agent makes written demand therefor.

(d) Within 30 days after the date of any payment by the Company of Taxes, Other Taxes or Further Taxes, the Company shall furnish to each Lender, the Co-Administrative

- 45 -

Agent or the Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof, or other evidence of payment satisfactory to such Lender, the Co-Administrative Agent or the Agent.

(e) If the Company is required to pay any amount to any Lender, the Co-Administrative Agent or the Agent pursuant to subsection (b) or (c) of this Section, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its Lending Office so as to eliminate any such additional payment by the Company which may thereafter accrue, if such change in the sole judgment of such Lender is not otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

4.02 Illegality. (a) If any Lender determines that the introduction of any Requirement of Law, or any change in any Requirement of Law, or in the interpretation or administration of any Requirement of Law, has made it unlawful, or that any central bank or other Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make Offshore Rate Loans, then, on notice thereof by the Lender to the Company through the Co-Administrative Agent, any obligation of that Lender to make Offshore Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Lender notifies the Co-Administrative Agent and the Company that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist.

(b) If a Lender determines that it is unlawful to maintain any Offshore Rate Loan, the Company shall, upon its receipt of notice of such fact and demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Co-Administrative Agent), prepay in full such Offshore Rate Loans of that Lender then outstanding, together with interest accrued thereon and amounts required under Section 4.04, either on the last day of the Interest Period thereof, if the Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Offshore Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if the Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Offshore Rate Loan. If the Company is required to so prepay any Offshore Rate Loan, then concurrently with such prepayment, the Company shall borrow from the affected Lender, in the amount of such repayment, a Base Rate Loan.

(c) If the obligation of any Lender to make or maintain Offshore Rate Loans has been so terminated or suspended, the Company may elect, by giving notice to the Lender through the Co-Administrative Agent that all Loans which would otherwise be made by the Lender as Offshore Rate Loans shall be instead Base Rate Loans.

(d) Before giving any notice to the Co-Administrative Agent under this Section, the affected Lender shall designate a different Lending Office with respect to its Offshore Rate Loans if such designation will avoid the need for giving such notice or making such demand and will not, in the judgment of the Lender, be illegal or otherwise disadvantageous to the Lender.

4.03 Increased Costs and Reduction of Return. (a) If any Lender determines that, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation after the Restatement Date or (ii) the compliance by that Lender with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be any increase in the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any Offshore Rate Loans or participating in Letters of Credit, or, in the case of the

- 46 -

Issuer, any increase in the cost to the Issuer of agreeing to issue, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any unpaid drawing under any Letter of Credit, then the Company shall be liable for, and shall from time to time, upon demand (with a copy of such demand to be sent to the Co-Administrative Agent), pay to the Co-Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender, additional amounts as are sufficient to compensate such Lender for such increased costs.

(b) If any Lender shall have determined that (i) the introduction of any Capital Adequacy Regulation after the Restatement Date, (ii) any change in any Capital Adequacy Regulation after the Restatement Date, (iii) any change in the interpretation or administration of any Capital Adequacy Regulation after the Restatement Date by any central bank or other Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or (iv) compliance by the Lender (or its Lending Office) or any corporation controlling the Lender with any Capital Adequacy Regulation, affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by the Lender or any corporation controlling the Lender and (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy and such Lender’s desired return on capital) determines that the amount of such capital is increased as a consequence of its Commitment, loans, credits or obligations under this Agreement, then, upon demand of such Lender to the Company through the Co-Administrative Agent, the Company shall pay to the Lender, from time to time as specified by the Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate the Lender for such increase.

4.04 Funding Losses. The Company shall reimburse each Lender and hold each Lender harmless from any loss or expense which the Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of:

(a) the failure of the Company to make on a timely basis any payment of principal of any Offshore Rate Loan;

(b) the failure of the Company to borrow, continue or convert a Loan after the Company has given (or is deemed to have given) a Notice of Borrowing, a Notice of Conversion/ Continuation or similar notice;

(d) the prepayment or other payment (including after acceleration thereof) of an Offshore Rate Loan on a day that is not the last day of the relevant Interest Period (including, without limitation, in connection with the syndication of the Commitments);

(e) the automatic conversion under Section 2.04 of any Offshore Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan on a day that is not the last day of the relevant Interest Period;

including any such loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain its Offshore Rate Loans or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Company to the Lenders under this Section and under subsection 4.03(a), each Offshore Rate Loan made by a Lender (and each related reserve, special deposit or similar requirement) shall be

- 47 -

conclusively deemed to have been funded at the LIBOR used in determining the Offshore Rate for such Offshore Rate Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the interbank eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Offshore Rate Loan is in fact so funded.

4.05 Inability to Determine Rates. If the Co-Administrative Agent determines that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Offshore Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Offshore Rate Loan, or that the Offshore Rate applicable pursuant to subsection 2.11(a) for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Offshore Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of funding such Loan, the Co-Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Company and each Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Offshore Rate Loans hereunder shall be suspended until the Co-Administrative Agent revokes such notice in writing. Upon receipt of such notice, the Company may revoke any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation then submitted by it. If the Company does not revoke such Notice, the Lenders shall make, convert or continue the Loans, as proposed by the Company, in the amount specified in the applicable notice submitted by the Company, but such Loans shall be made, converted or continued as Base Rate Loans instead of Offshore Rate Loans, as the case may be.

4.06 Reserves on Offshore Rate Loans. The Company shall pay to each Lender, as long as such Lender shall be required under regulations of the FRB to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits (currently known as “Eurocurrency liabilities”), additional costs on the unpaid principal amount of each Offshore Rate Loan to the Company equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by the Lender (as determined by the Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan, provided the Company shall have received at least 15 days’ prior written notice (with a copy to the Co-Administrative Agent) of such additional interest from the Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice 15 days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest shall be payable 15 days from receipt of such notice.

4.07 Certificates of Lenders. Any Lender claiming reimbursement or compensation under this Article IV shall deliver to the Company (with a copy to the Co-Administrative Agent) a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the amount payable to the Lender hereunder and such certificate shall be conclusive and binding on the Company in the absence of manifest error.

4.08 Substitution of Banks. Upon the receipt by the Company from any Lender (an “Affected Lender”) of a claim for compensation under Section 4.03 or Section 4.06, of notice that it cannot make Offshore Rate Loans under Section 4.02, or of a claim for Taxes or Further Taxes under Section 4.01, then the Agent, at the Company’s direction, shall: (i) request the Affected Lender to use good faith efforts to obtain a replacement bank or financial institution satisfactory to the Company to acquire and assume all or a ratable part of all of such Affected Lender’s Loans and Commitments at the face amount thereof (a “Replacement Lender”); (ii) request one more of the other Lenders to acquire and assume all or part of such Affected Lender’s Loans and Commitments; or (iii) designate a Replacement Lender. Any such designation of a Replacement Lender under clause (i) or (iii) shall be subject to the prior written consent of the Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). Any transfer of Loans

- 48 -

and Commitments shall be accompanied by the payment of any amounts due to the Affected Lender under Sections 4.01, 4.03, 4.04 (calculated as if the assigned Loans were prepaid on the date of assignment) and 4.06 and shall be made in accordance with Section 11.08; provided, that the processing fee referenced in Section 11.08(a) shall not be required to be paid.

4.09 Survival. The agreements and obligations of the Company in this Article IV shall survive the payment of all other Obligations, and the Company will have no obligation to pay any amount hereunder unless a demand is made within 180 days after the date upon which the Agent’s, the Co-Administrative Agent’s or applicable Lender’s right to reimbursement arises.

6.07 ERISA Compliance.

(a) Each Plan is in compliance in all material respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA, the Code and other federal or state law. Each Plan which is intended to

6.09 Title to Properties. The Company and each Subsidiary have good record and marketable title in fee simple to, or valid leasehold interests in, all real property necessary or used in the ordinary conduct of their respective businesses, except for such defects in title as could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(d) There are no Hazardous Materials or other conditions or circumstances existing with respect to any Property of the Company or any Subsidiary, or arising from operations prior to the Restatement Date, of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that would reasonably be expected to give rise to Environmental Claims with a potential liability of the Company and its Subsidiaries in excess of $1,500,000 in the aggregate for all such conditions,

To the best knowledge of the Company, no slogan or other advertising device, product, process, method, substance, part or other material now employed, or now contemplated to be employed, by the Company or any Subsidiary infringes upon any rights held by any other Person.

ARTICLE X

THE AGENT AND THE CO-ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

10.01 Appointment and Authorization; “Agent”; “Co-Administrative Agent”. (a) Each Lender hereby irrevocably (subject to Section 10.09) appoints, designates and authorizes each of the Agent and the Co-Administrative Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan

- 70 -

Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, neither the Agent nor the Co-Administrative Agent shall have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall the Agent or the Co-Administrative Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Agent or the Co-Administrative Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” in this Agreement with reference to the Agent or the Co-Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

(b) The Issuer shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit Issued by it and the documents associated therewith until such time and except for so long as the Agent or the Co-Administrative Agent may agree at the request of the Required Lenders to act for the Issuer with respect thereto; provided, however, that the Issuer shall have all of the benefits and immunities (i) provided to the Agent and the Co-Administrative Agent in this Article X with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by the Issuer in connection with Letters of Credit Issued by it or proposed to be Issued by it and the application and agreements for letters of credit pertaining to the Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Agent”, as used in this Article X, included the Issuer with respect to such acts or omissions, and (ii) as additionally provided in this Agreement with respect to the Issuer.

10.02 Delegation of Duties. The Agent and the Co-Administrative Agent may execute any of their duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. Neither the Agent nor the Co-Administrative Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects with reasonable care.

10.03 Liability of Agent and Co-Administrative Agent. None of the Agent-Related Persons shall (a) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct), or (b) be responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company, or any officer thereof, contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for the value of or title to any collateral, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for any failure of the Company or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to

- 71 -

inspect the properties, books or records of the Company or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries or Affiliates.

10.04 Reliance by Agent and Co-Administrative Agent. (a) The Agent and the Co-Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to the Company), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Agent and the Co-Administrative Agent. The Agent and the Co-Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless they shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as they deem appropriate and, if they so request, they shall first be indemnified to their satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by them by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Agent and the Co-Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Lenders and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of the Lenders.

(b) For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Section 5.01, each Lender that has executed this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter either sent by the Agent or the Co-Administrative Agent to such Lender for consent, approval, acceptance or satisfaction, or required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to such Lender.

10.05 Notice of Default. Neither the Agent nor the Co-Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to the Agent or the Co-Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, unless the Agent and the Co-Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or the Company referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. The Agent and the Co-Administrative Agent will notify the Lenders of their receipt of any such notice. The Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be requested by the Required Lenders in accordance with Article IX; provided, however, that unless and until the Agent has received any such request, the Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Lenders.

10.06 Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that none of the Agent-Related Persons has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by the Agent or the Co-Administrative Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Company and its Subsidiaries, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent-Related Person to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Agent and the Co-Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based

- 72 -

on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Company and its Subsidiaries, the value of and title to any collateral, and all applicable bank regulatory laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to the Company hereunder. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Company. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly herein required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Agent or the Co-Administrative Agent, neither the Agent nor the Co-Administrative Agent shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Company which may come into the possession of any of the Agent-Related Persons.

10.07 Indemnification of Agent and Co-Administrative Agent. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Lenders shall indemnify upon demand the Agent-Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of the Company and without limiting the obligation of the Company to do so), in accordance with such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of all Loans and Commitments, from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to the Agent-Related Persons of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities resulting from such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse each of the Agent and the Co-Administrative Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including Attorney Costs) incurred by the Agent or the Co-Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that the Agent or the Co-Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Company. The undertaking in this Section shall survive the payment of all Obligations hereunder and the resignation or replacement of the Agent or the Co-Administrative Agent.

10.08 Agent in Individual Capacity. Bank of America, LaSalle and their Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with the Company and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates as though Bank of America were not the Agent hereunder and as though LaSalle were not the Co-Administrative Agent or the Issuer hereunder and without notice to or consent of the Lenders. The Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, Bank of America, LaSalle or their Affiliates may receive information regarding the Company or its Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of the Company or such Subsidiary) and acknowledge that neither the Agent nor the Co-Administrative Agent shall be under any obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to its Loans, Bank of America and LaSalle shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and

- 73 -

may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent or the Issuer or the Co-Administrative Agent, respectively.

10.09 Successor Agent. Either the Agent or the Co-Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the Required Lenders shall, resign upon 30 days’ notice to the Lenders. If the Agent or the Co-Administrative Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent or co-administrative agent for the Lenders subject, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, to the consent of the Company, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of the Agent or the Co-Administrative Agent, the Agent or the Co-Administrative Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders and the Company, a successor agent from among the Lenders. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor agent hereunder, such successor agent or co-administrative agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Agent and the term “Agent” or “Co-Administrative Agent”, as applicable, shall mean such successor agent and the retiring Agent’s or Co-Administrative Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Agent’s or Co-Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Agent or Co-Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article X and Sections 11.04 and 11.05 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent or Co-Administrative Agent under this Agreement. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Agent by the date which is 30 days following a retiring Agent’s or Co-Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Agent’s or Co-Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Co-Administrative Agent shall perform all of the duties of the Agent, or the Agent shall perform all of the duties of the Co-Administrative Agent, as applicable, hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent or co-administrative agent as provided for above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, LaSalle may not be removed as the Co-Administrative Agent at the request of the Required Lenders unless LaSalle shall also simultaneously be replaced as an “Issuer” (if any letters of credit Issued by LaSalle are then outstanding) hereunder pursuant to documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to LaSalle.

10.10 Withholding Tax. (a) If any Lender is a “foreign corporation, partnership or trust” within the meaning of the Code and such Lender claims exemption from, or a reduction of, U.S. withholding tax under Sections 1441 or 1442 of the Code, such Lender agrees with and in favor of the Agent and the Company, to deliver to the Agent and the Company:

(i) if such Lender claims an exemption from, or a reduction of, withholding tax under a United States tax treaty, two properly completed and executed copies of IRS Form 1001 (or its successor) before the payment of any interest in the first calendar year and before the payment of any interest in each third succeeding calendar year during which interest may be paid under this Agreement;

(ii) if such Lender claims that interest paid under this Agreement is exempt from United States withholding tax because it is effectively connected with a United States trade or business of such Lender, two properly completed and executed copies of IRS Form 4224 (or its successor) before the payment of any interest is due in

- 74 -

the first taxable year of such Lender and in each succeeding taxable year of such Lender during which interest may be paid under this Agreement; and

(iii) such other form or forms as may be required under the Code or other laws of the United States as a condition to exemption from, or reduction of, United States withholding tax.

Such Lender agrees to promptly notify the Agent and the Company of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction.

(b) If any Lender claims exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax under a United States tax treaty by providing IRS Form 1001 (or its successor) and such Lender sells, assigns, grants a participation in, or otherwise transfers all or part of the Obligations of the Company to such Lender, such Lender agrees to notify the Agent of the percentage amount in which it is no longer the beneficial owner of Obligations of the Company to such Lender. To the extent of such percentage amount, the Agent will treat such Lender’s IRS Form 1001 (or its successor) as no longer valid.

(c) If any Lender claiming exemption from United States withholding tax by filing IRS Form 4224 (or its successor) with the Agent sells, assigns, grants a participation in, or otherwise transfers all or part of the Obligations of the Company to such Lender, such Lender agrees to undertake sole responsibility for complying with the withholding tax requirements imposed by Sections 1441 and 1442 of the Code.

(d) If any Lender is entitled to a reduction in the applicable withholding tax, the Agent may withhold from any interest payment to such Lender an amount equivalent to the applicable withholding tax after taking into account such reduction. However, if the forms or other documentation required by subsection (a) of this Section are not delivered to the Agent, then the Agent may withhold from any interest payment to such Lender not providing such forms or other documentation an amount equivalent to the applicable withholding tax imposed by Sections 1441 and 1442 of the Code, without reduction.

(e) If the IRS or any other Governmental Authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender (because the appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Agent of a change in circumstances which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective, or for any other reason) such Lender shall indemnify the Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Agent as tax or otherwise, including penalties and interest, and including any taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on the amounts payable to the Agent under this Section, together with all costs and expenses (including Attorney Costs). The obligation of the Lenders under this subsection shall survive the payment of all Obligations and the resignation or replacement of the Agent.

10.11 Co-Agents. None of the Lenders identified on the facing page or signature pages of this Agreement as a “co-agent”, “syndication agent” or “documentation agent” shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those

- 75 -

applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Lenders so identified as a “co-agent”, “syndication agent” or “documentation agent” shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any of the Lenders so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder.

11.03 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Agent, the Co-Administrative Agent or any Lender, any right,

- 77 -

11.04 Costs and Expenses. The Company shall:

(a) whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, pay or reimburse Bank of America (including in its capacity as Agent) and the Arranger within five Business Days after demand (subject to subsection 5.01(e)) for all costs and expenses incurred by Bank of America (including in its capacity as the Agent) and the Arranger in connection with the development, preparation, delivery, administration, syndication and execution of, and any amendment, supplement, waiver or modification to (in each case, whether or not consummated), this Agreement, any Loan Document and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including reasonable Attorney Costs incurred by Bank of America (including in its capacity as the Agent) and the Arranger with respect thereto;

- 78 -

out of this Agreement or the Loans or Letters of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof, whether or not any Indemnified Person is a party thereto (all the foregoing, collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided, that the Company shall have no obligation hereunder to any Indemnified Person with respect to Indemnified Liabilities resulting solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person. The agreements in this Section shall survive payment of all other Obligations.

11.06 Marshalling; Payments Set Aside. Neither the Agent, the Co-Administrative Agent nor the Lenders shall be under any obligation to marshall any assets in favor of the Company or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that the Company makes a payment to the Agent, the Co-Administrative Agent or the Lenders, or the Agent, the Co-Administrative Agent or the Lenders exercise their right of set-off, and such payment or the proceeds of such set-off or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Agent, the Co-Administrative Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such set-off had not occurred, and (b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Agent or the Co-Administrative Agent upon demand its pro rata share of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Agent or the Co-Administrative Agent.

11.07 Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Company may not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Agent, the Co-Administrative Agent and each Lender.

11.08 Assignments, Participations, etc. (a) Any Lender may, with the written consent of the Company at all times other than during the existence of an Event of Default and the Agent, the Swing Line Lender and the Issuer, which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, at any time assign and delegate to one or more Eligible Assignees (each an “Assignee”) all, or any part of all, of the Loans, the Commitments, the L/C Obligations and the other rights and obligations of such Lender hereunder, in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 or, if less, the total amount of such Lender’s outstanding Loans and/or Commitments (provided that no written consent of the Company, the Agent, the Swing Line Lender or the Issuer shall be required in connection with any assignment and delegation by a Lender to an Eligible Assignee that is an Affiliate of such Lender); provided, however, that the Company, the Agent and the Co-Administrative Agent may continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with the interest so assigned to an Assignee until (i) written notice of such assignment, together with payment instructions, addresses and related information with respect to the Assignee, shall have been given to the Company, the Agent and the Co-Administrative Agent by such Lender and the Assignee; (ii) such Lender and its Assignee shall have delivered to the Company and the Agent an Assignment and Acceptance in the form of Exhibit D (“Assignment and Acceptance”) together with any Note or Notes subject to such assignment and (iii) the assignor Lender or Assignee has paid to the Co-administrative Agent a processing fee in the amount of $2,500.

- 79 -

(b) From and after the date that the Agent notifies the assignor Lender that it has received (and, if required, provided its consent with respect to) an executed Assignment and Acceptance and payment of the above-referenced processing fee, (i) the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder (including without limitation any obligations under Section 10.10) have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender under the Loan Documents, and (ii) the assignor Lender shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents.

(c) Within five Business Days after its receipt of notice by the Agent that it has received an executed Assignment and Acceptance and payment of the processing fee, (and, if required, provided that it consents to such assignment in accordance with subsection 11.08(a)), the Company shall execute and deliver to the Agent new Notes evidencing such Assignee’s assigned Loans and Commitment and, if the assignor Lender has retained a portion of its Loans and its Commitment, replacement Notes in the principal amount of the Loans retained by the assignor Lender (such Notes to be in exchange for, but not in payment of, the Notes held by such Lender). Immediately upon each Assignee’s making its processing fee payment under the Assignment and Acceptance, this Agreement shall be deemed to be amended to the extent, but only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of the Assignee and the resulting adjustment of the Commitments arising therefrom. The Commitment allocated to each Assignee shall reduce such Commitments of the assigning Lender pro tanto.

(d) Any Lender may at any time sell to one or more commercial banks or other Persons not Affiliates of the Company (a “Participant”) participating interests in any Loans, the Commitment of that Lender and the other interests of that Lender (the “originating Lender”) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; provided, however, that (i) the originating Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) the originating Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the Company, each Issuer and the Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with the originating Lender in connection with the originating Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and (iv) no Lender shall transfer or grant any participating interest under which the Participant has rights to approve any amendment to, or any consent or waiver with respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except to the extent such amendment, consent or waiver would require unanimous consent of the Lenders as described in clause (a) (but only in respect of any increase of any Commitment of any originating Lender), (b) or (e) of the first proviso to Section 11.01. In the case of any such participation, the Participant shall be entitled to the benefit of Sections 4.01, 4.03 and 11.05 as though it were also a Lender hereunder, and if amounts outstanding under this Agreement are due and unpaid, or shall have been declared or shall have become due and payable upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of set-off in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement.

(e) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, any Lender may at any time create a security interest in, or pledge, all or any portion of its rights under and interest in this Agreement and the Notes held by it in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in

- 80 -

accordance with Regulation A of the FRB or U.S. Treasury Regulation 31 CFR §203.14, and such Federal Reserve Bank may enforce such pledge or security interest in any manner permitted under applicable law.

11.09 Confidentiality. Each Lender agrees to take and to cause its Affiliates to take normal and reasonable precautions and exercise due care to maintain the confidentiality of all information identified as “confidential” by the Company and provided to it by the Company or any Subsidiary, or by the Agent on the Company’s or such Subsidiary’s behalf, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and neither it nor any of its Affiliates shall use any such information other than in connection with or in enforcement of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or in connection with other business now or hereafter existing or contemplated with the Company or any Subsidiary; except to the extent such information (i) was or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of disclosure by the Lender; or (ii) was or becomes available on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Company, provided that such source is not bound by a confidentiality agreement with the Company known to the Lender; provided, however, that any Lender may disclose such information (A) at the request or pursuant to any requirement of any Governmental Authority to which the Lender is subject or in connection with an examination of such Lender by any such authority; (B) pursuant to subpoena or other court process; (C) when required to do so in accordance with the provisions of any applicable Requirement of Law; (D) to the extent reasonably required in connection with any litigation or proceeding to which the Agent, the Co-Administrative Agent, any Lender or their respective Affiliates may be party; (E) to the extent reasonably required in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document; (F) to such Lender’s independent auditors and other professional advisors; (G) to any Participant or Assignee, actual or potential, provided that such Person agrees to keep such information confidential to the same extent required of the Lenders hereunder; (H) as to any Lender or its Affiliate, as expressly permitted under the terms of any other document or agreement regarding confidentiality to which the Company or any Subsidiary is party or is deemed party with such Lender or such Affiliate; (I) to its Affiliates; and (J) to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about such Lender’s investment portfolio in connection with ratings issued with respect to such Lender.

11.10 Set-off. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, if an Event of Default exists or the Loans have been accelerated, each Lender is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to the Company, any such notice being waived by the Company to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held by, and other indebtedness at any time owing by, such Lender to or for the credit or the account of the Company against any and all Obligations owing to such Lender, now or hereafter existing, irrespective of whether or not the Agent or such Lender shall have made demand under this Agreement or any Loan Document and although such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Company and the Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

- 81 -

11.11 Automatic Debits of Fees. With respect to any principal or interest due on the Loans, unreimbursed L/C Obligation, non-use fee, arrangement fee, letter of credit fee or other fee, or any other cost or expense (including Attorney Costs) due and payable to the Agent, the Co-Administrative Agent, the Issuer, Bank of America, LaSalle or the Arranger under the Loan Documents, the Company hereby irrevocably authorizes Bank of America or LaSalle to debit any deposit account of the Company with Bank of America or LaSalle or any of its Affiliates in an amount such that the aggregate amount debited from all such deposit accounts does not exceed such fee or other cost or expense. If there are insufficient funds in such deposit accounts to cover the amount of the fee or other cost or expense then due, such debits will be reversed (in whole or in part, in Bank of America’s or LaSalle’s sole discretion) and such amount not debited shall be deemed to be unpaid. No such debit under this Section shall be deemed a set-off.

11.12 Notification of Addresses, Lending Offices, Etc. Each Lender shall notify the Agent in writing of any changes in the address to which notices to the Lender should be directed, of addresses of any Lending Office, of payment instructions in respect of all payments to be made to it hereunder and of such other administrative information as the Agent shall reasonably request.

11.13 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of separate counterparts, each of which, when so executed, shall be deemed an original, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute but one and the same instrument.

11.14 Severability. The illegality or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement or any instrument or agreement required hereunder shall not in any way affect or impair the legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement or any instrument or agreement required hereunder.

11.15 No Third Parties Benefited. This Agreement is made and entered into for the sole protection and legal benefit of the Company, the Lenders, the Agent, the Co-Administrative Agent, the Arranger and the Agent-Related Persons, and their permitted successors and assigns, and no other Person shall be a direct or indirect legal beneficiary of, or have any direct or indirect cause of action or claim in connection with, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.

11.16 GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION. (A) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE NOTES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAW OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS (WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAW PROVISIONS THEREOF); PROVIDED THAT THE COMPANY, THE AGENT, THE CO-ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE LENDERS SHALL RETAIN ALL RIGHTS ARISING UNDER FEDERAL LAW.

(B) ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS OR OF THE UNITED STATES FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF ILLINOIS, AND BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, EACH OF THE COMPANY, THE AGENT, THE CO-ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE LENDERS CONSENTS, FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS

- 82 -

PROPERTY, TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THOSE COURTS. EACH OF THE COMPANY, THE AGENT, THE CO-ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE LENDERS IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION, INCLUDING ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OR BASED ON THE GROUNDS OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS, WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE BRINGING OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN SUCH JURISDICTION IN RESPECT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY DOCUMENT RELATED HERETO. THE COMPANY, THE AGENT, THE CO-ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE LENDERS EACH WAIVE PERSONAL SERVICE OF ANY SUMMONS, COMPLAINT OR OTHER PROCESS, WHICH MAY BE MADE BY ANY OTHER MEANS PERMITTED BY ILLINOIS LAW.

11.17 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE COMPANY, THE LENDERS, THE AGENT AND THE CO-ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT EACH WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY, IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR OTHER LITIGATION OF ANY TYPE BROUGHT BY ANY OF THE PARTIES AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY OR ANY AGENT-RELATED PERSON, PARTICIPANT OR ASSIGNEE, WHETHER WITH RESPECT TO CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, OR OTHERWISE. THE COMPANY, THE LENDERS, THE AGENT AND THE CO-ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT EACH AGREE THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE TRIED BY A COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, THE PARTIES FURTHER AGREE THAT THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IS WAIVED BY OPERATION OF THIS SECTION AS TO ANY ACTION, COUNTERCLAIM OR OTHER PROCEEDING WHICH SEEKS, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, TO CHALLENGE THE VALIDITY OR ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY PROVISION HEREOF OR THEREOF. THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.

11.18 Judgment. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or under any other Loan Document in one currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Co-Administrative Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligation of the Company in respect of any such sum due from it to the Agent, the Co-Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Agent or such Lender of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Agent, the Co-Administrative Agent or such Lender may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Agent, the Co-Administrative Agent or such Lender in the Agreement Currency, the Company agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Agent, the Co-Administrative Agent or

- 83 -

such Lender or the Person to whom such obligation was owing against such loss. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to the Agent, the Co-Administrative Agent or such Lender in such currency, the Agent, the Co-Administrative Agent or such Lender agrees to return the amount of any excess to the Company (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable law).

11.19 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, embodies the entire agreement and understanding among the Company, the Lenders and the Agent, and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous agreements and understandings of such Persons, verbal or written, relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof.

11.20 Euro Currency. (a) If at any time that an Offshore Currency Loan is outstanding, the relevant Offshore Currency is replaced as the lawful currency of the country that issued such Offshore Currency (the “Issuing Country”) by the Euro then such Offshore Currency Loan shall be automatically converted into a Loan denominated in Euros in a principal amount equal to the amount of Euros into which the principal amount of such Offshore Currency Loan would be converted pursuant to the laws of the Issuing Country and thereafter (i) no further Loans will be available in such Offshore Currency and (ii) all references in the Loan Documents to such Offshore Currency shall be deemed to be the Euro.

(b) The Company agrees, at the request of any Lender, to compensate each Lender for any loss, cost, expense or reduction in return that such Lender shall reasonably determine shall be incurred or sustained by such Lender as a result of the implementation of the European Monetary Union and the Euro and that would not have been incurred or sustained by such Lender but for the transactions provided for herein. A certificate of any such Lender setting forth such Lender’s determination of the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender shall be delivered to the Co-Administrative Agent for delivery to the Company and shall be conclusive absent manifest error so long as such determination is made by such Lender on a reasonable basis. The Company shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. The agreements and obligations of the Company in this Section 11.20 shall survive the payment of all obligations.

11.21 Restatement Date. The Company, each Lender, the Agent and the Co-Administrative Agent agree that on the Restatement Date the following transactions shall be deemed to occur automatically, without further action by any party hereto:

(a) The Prior Credit Agreement shall be deemed to be amended and restated in its entirety in the form of this Agreement.

(b) The Co-Administrative Agent shall, promptly after receipt of the Notes reflecting amendments to the Prior Credit Agreement effected hereunder, cancel and return to the Company (upon receipt from the Lenders) the promissory notes being replaced by such Notes.

The Company, each Lender, the Agent and the Co-Administrative Agent agree that (i) the restatement transactions provided in the foregoing sentence shall not be effective until the execution of this Agreement by all of the parties hereto and the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 5.01 hereof, (ii) all terms and conditions of the Prior Credit

- 84 -

Agreement which are amended and restated by this Agreement shall remain effective until such amendment and restatement becomes effective hereunder, and thereafter shall continue to be effective only as amended and restated by this Agreement, and (iii) the representations, warranties and covenants set forth herein shall become effective concurrently with the execution of this Agreement by all of the parties hereto.

(c) The Lenders, upon the effectiveness of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, will continue to lend monies and/or make advances, extensions of credit or other financial accommodations to, on behalf of or for the benefit of the Company pursuant hereto, and (i) any loans made under the Prior Credit Agreement which are not repaid on the Restatement Date will automatically, and without further action on the part of the Lenders or the Company, become Revolving Loans under this Agreement held ratably in proportion to the several Commitments of the Lenders hereunder and (ii) any Existing Letter of Credit issued and outstanding under the Prior Credit Agreement will automatically, and without further action on the part of the Lenders or the Company, become Letters of Credit under this Agreement. Any loans under the Prior Credit Agreement which are repaid on the Restatement Date will be paid to the Lenders under the Prior Credit Agreement in such proportions as shall be necessary to (x) repay in full the Loans held by any lenders under the Prior Credit Agreement which are not Lenders hereunder and (y) allow the Loans remaining outstanding hereunder after giving effect to such payment to be held by the Lenders hereunder ratably in proportion to their several Commitments.

11.22 USA PATRIOT Act Notice. Each Lender that is subject to the Act (as hereinafter defined), the Agent and the Co-Administrative Agent (each for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the 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 the Company, which information includes the name and address of the Company and other information that will allow such Lender, the Agent or the Co-Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Company in accordance with the Act.
