SECTION II

DESCRIPTION OF CREDIT

2.1 Revolving Credit Loans.

(a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, and in reliance upon the representations, warranties and covenants of the Borrower herein, each of the Lenders agrees, severally and not jointly, to make revolving credit loans (the “Revolving Credit Loans”) to the Borrower at the Borrower’s request from time to time from and after the Closing Date and prior to the Maturity Date, provided that the Total Outstandings (after giving effect to all requested Loans) shall not at any time exceed the lesser of (i) the Borrowing Base and (ii) the Total Commitment, and provided, further that the sum of the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Revolving Credit Loans made by each Lender shall not at any time (after giving effect to all requested Loans) exceed such Lender’s Commitment. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Borrower may borrow, repay, prepay and reborrow amounts, up to the limits imposed by this Section 2.1, from time to time between the Closing Date and the Maturity Date upon request given to the Agent pursuant to Section 2.3. Each request for a

-16-

Revolving Credit Loan hereunder shall constitute a representation and warranty by the Borrower that the conditions set forth in Sections 3.1 and 3.2 have been satisfied as of the date of such request.

(b) Each LIBOR Loan shall be in a minimum principal amount of $500,000 or in integral multiples of $100,000 in excess of such minimum amount. No more than five (5) LIBOR Loans may be outstanding at any time.

(c) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions and limitations of this Agreement, the Borrower may convert all or a part of any outstanding Loan into a Loan of another Type on any Business Day (which, in the case of a conversion of an outstanding LIBOR Loan shall be the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Loan). The Borrower shall give the Agent prior notice of each such conversion (which notice shall be effective upon receipt) in accordance with Section 2.3.

(d) (i) All Commitments shall automatically terminate at 5:00 p.m. Boston time on the Maturity Date.

(ii) Subject to the provisions of Sections 2.6(b) and 2.7, the Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time upon five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Agent to reduce by $5,000,000, and in integral multiples of $1,000,000 if in excess thereof, the Total Commitment or to terminate entirely the Lenders’ Commitments to make Loans hereunder, whereupon the Commitments of the Lenders shall be reduced pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages by the aggregate amount specified in such notice or shall, as the case may be, be terminated entirely.

(iii) No such reduction or termination of any Commitment may be reinstated.

(e) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.1(a), the Agent may, in its sole discretion, advance Revolving Credit Loans on behalf of the Lenders to the Borrower at a time when Total Outstandings exceed, or after giving effect to all requested Loans would exceed, the Borrowing Base (any such Revolving Credit Loan or Loans being herein referred to individually as an “Overadvance” and collectively, as “Overadvances”), provided that (i) the Total Outstandings (after giving effect to all requested Loans (including Overadvances)) shall not at any time exceed the Total Commitment, (ii) the outstanding Overadvances shall not at any time exceed ten percent (10%) of the Borrowing Base, (iii) all Overadvances shall be Base Rate Loans, (iv) no Overadvance may be made after the occurrence and during the continuation of a Default or an Event of Default without the consent of all Lenders and (v) each Overadvance shall be payable on the next Business Day after the Drawdown Date thereof.

2.2 The Notes. The Revolving Credit Loans shall be evidenced by separate promissory notes for each Lender, each such note to be in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto, dated as of the Closing Date and completed with appropriate insertions (each such note being referred to herein as a “Note” and collectively as the “Notes”). One Note shall be payable to the order of each Lender in a principal amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment. The Borrower irrevocably authorizes each of the Lenders to make or cause to be made, at or about the time of the Drawdown Date of any Revolving Credit Loan or at the time of receipt of any payment of principal on the Notes, an appropriate notation on its Note Record reflecting (as the

-17-

case may be) the making of such Revolving Credit Loan or the receipt of such payment. The outstanding amount of the Revolving Credit Loans set forth on the Note Records shall be prima facie evidence of the principal amount thereof owing and unpaid to such Lenders, but the failure to record, or any error in so recording, any such amount on any Lender’s Note Record shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower hereunder or under any Note to make payments of principal of or interest on any Note when due.

2.3 Notice and Manner of Borrowing or Conversion of Loans.

(a) The Borrower may obtain or continue a Loan hereunder or convert an outstanding Loan into a Loan of another Type by giving the Agent a telephonic notice promptly confirmed by a written Notice of Borrowing or Conversion, which telephonic notice shall be irrevocable and which must be received no later than 2:00 p.m. Boston time (i) on the day on which the requested Loan is to be made as or converted to a Base Rate Loan, and (ii) three Business Days before the day on which the requested Loan is to be made or continued as or converted to a LIBOR Loan. Such Notice of Borrowing or Conversion shall specify (i) the effective date and amount of each Loan or portion thereof requested to be made, continued or converted, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.1, (ii) the interest rate option requested to be applicable thereto, and (iii) the duration of the applicable Interest Period, if any (subject to the provisions of the definition of the term “Interest Period”). If such Notice fails to specify the interest rate option to be applicable to the requested Loan, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Base Rate Loan. If the written confirmation of any telephonic notification differs in any material respect from the action taken by the Agent, the records of the Agent shall control absent manifest error.

(b) The presentment for payment of a check, draft or other item on, or a request made by the Borrower for a wire transfer for funds from, any deposit account maintained by the Borrower with the Agent shall be deemed to be a request pursuant to a Notice of Borrowing or Conversion by the Borrower for a Base Rate Loan hereunder to the extent that such account has insufficient funds to pay all such checks, drafts or items presented, or wire transfers requested, on any day in full.

(c) Subject to the provisions of the definition of the term “Interest Period” herein, the duration of each Interest Period for a LIBOR Loan shall be as specified in the applicable Notice of Borrowing or Conversion. If no Interest Period is specified in a Notice of Borrowing or Conversion with respect to a requested LIBOR Loan, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. If the Agent receives a Notice of Borrowing or Conversion after the time specified in subsection (a) above, such Notice shall not be effective. If the Agent does not receive an effective Notice of Borrowing or Conversion with respect to an outstanding LIBOR Loan, or if, when such Notice must be given prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable to such outstanding Loan, the Borrower shall have failed to satisfy any of the conditions hereof, the Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to convert such outstanding Loan in whole into a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section II, if a Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Lenders shall have no obligation to make or continue any LIBOR Loans to the Borrower.

-18-

2.4 Funding of Loans.

(a) Revolving Credit Loans (including Overadvances) shall be made by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages, provided, however that the failure of any Lender to make any Loan shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation to lend hereunder (it being understood, however, that no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make any Loan required to be made by such other Lender).

(b) Each of the Lenders authorizes the Agent to advance all Revolving Credit Loans (including Overadvances to the extent authorized under Section 2.1(e)) which are requested by the Borrower during any calendar week, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. In addition, the Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, apply amounts from the Collateral Account to fund the payment of checks, drafts and other items, or requests for wire transfers, deemed to be a request for a Base Rate Loan pursuant to Section 2.3(b) hereof instead of, or in addition to, advancing a Revolving Credit Loan hereunder. On such day or days as the Agent shall designate (each such day being referred to herein as a “Settlement Date”), but at least once per week, whether or not the Commitments have been terminated, a Default has occurred, the Obligations have been accelerated or the Agent is proceeding to liquidate the Collateral, the Agent shall, as promptly as practicable during normal business hours, effect a wire transfer of immediately available funds to each Lender of the amount, if any, payable to such Lender, or each Lender shall transfer to the Agent sufficient immediately available federal funds to reimburse the Agent for each such Lender’s pro rata share of all Revolving Credit Loans made by the Agent since the previous Settlement Date, in each case after taking into account payments and collections received by the Agent and applied to the Revolving Credit Loans, so that after giving effect to such transfers by the Agent to the Lenders or by the Lenders to the Agent, as the case may be, the Agent’s Note Record shall correctly reflect each Lender’s pro rata share of outstanding Revolving Credit Loans. All Revolving Credit Loans made by the Agent on behalf of the Lenders shall be, for purposes of interest income and charges, considered to be Revolving Credit Loans from such Lenders to the Borrower and reflected in the Note Records of the Agent and the Lenders (as among the Agent and the Lenders) at such time as the Agent receives from such Lenders funds as provided in this Section 2.4, and prior to such time such Revolving Credit Loans shall be considered, for purposes of interest income and other charges, to be Revolving Credit Loans from the Agent and so reflected in the Note Record of the Agent.

(c) The Agent may notify the Lenders of any proposed Revolving Credit Loan (including any proposed Overadvance) and of the Drawdown Date thereof and the amount of each Lender’s pro rata share of such Revolving Credit Loan. If such notice is given by the close of the Agent’s business on the Business Day on which the Agent receives an effective Notice of Borrowing or Conversion, as provided in Section 2.3, or in the case of Overadvances to the extent authorized under Section 2.1(e), if such notice is given by the close of Agent’s business on the Business Day immediately preceding the proposed Drawdown Date, each Lender shall, not later than 1:00 p.m. (Boston time) on the proposed Drawdown Date, make available to the Agent at its head office or at such other location as the Agent may from time to time designate, in immediately available funds, the amount of such Lender’s pro rata share of the amount of such proposed Revolving Credit Loan. Upon receipt by the Agent of such amount, and upon the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 3 (to the extent applicable), the Agent will make available to the Borrower the aggregate amount of such proposed Revolving Credit Loan.

-19-

(d) The Agent may, unless notified to the contrary by any Lender prior to a Drawdown Date, assume that each Lender has made available to the Agent on such Drawdown Date and the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Loans to be made on such Drawdown Date, and the Agent may (but it shall not be required to), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If any Lender makes available to the Agent such amount on a date after such Drawdown Date, such Lender shall pay to the Agent on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) the average, computed for the period referred to in clause (iii) below, of the weighted average interest rate paid by the Agent for federal funds acquired by the Agent during each day included in such period, times (ii) the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of any such Loans times (iii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse from and including such Drawdown Date to the date on which the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such Loans shall become immediately available to the Agent, and the denominator of which is 365. A statement of the Agent submitted to such Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this paragraph shall be prima facie evidence of the amount due and owing to the Agent by such Lender. If the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such Loans is not made available to the Agent by such Lender within three (3) Business Days following such Drawdown Date, the Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount from the Borrower on demand, with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to the Loans made on such Drawdown Date.

2.5 Interest Rates and Payments of Interest.

(a) Each Loan which is a Base Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate, which rate shall change contemporaneously with any change in the Base Rate, as provided below. Such interest shall be payable monthly in arrears on the first Business Day of each month.

(b) Each Loan which is a LIBOR Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each Interest Period applicable thereto, at a rate per annum equal to the LIBOR Rate plus a margin of two and three quarters percent (2.75%) per annum. Such interest shall be payable monthly in arrears on the first Business Day of each month.

(c) If a Default shall occur, then at the option of the Agent or the direction of the Majority Lenders the unpaid balance of Loans shall bear interest, to the extent permitted by law, compounded daily at an interest rate equal to a margin of four percent (4.00%) per annum above the interest rate applicable to each such Loan in effect on the day such Default occurs, until such Default is cured or waived.

(d) For the purpose of computing interest on the Loans, any items requiring clearance or payment shall not be considered to have been credited against any Loans hereunder until two (2) Business Days after receipt by the Agent of such items.

(e) So long as any Lender shall be required under regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (or any other banking authority, domestic or foreign, to which such Lender is subject) to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including “Eurocurrency Liabilities” (as defined in regulations issued from time to time by such Board of Governors), the Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of each such Lender additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each LIBOR Loan made by

-20-

such Lender from the date of such Loan until such principal amount is paid in full, at an interest rate per annum equal at all times to the remainder (rounded upwards, if necessary, to the next higher 1/100 of 1%) obtained by subtracting (i) the LIBOR Rate for the Interest Period for such LIBOR Loan from (ii) the rate obtained by dividing such LIBOR Rate by a percentage equal to 100% minus the LIBOR Reserve Percentage of such Lender for such Interest Period. Such additional interest shall be determined by such Lender and notified to the Borrower through the Agent, and shall be payable on each date on which interest is payable on such LIBOR Loan.

(f) All agreements between the Borrower and the Lenders are hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of acceleration of maturity of the Obligations or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to the Lenders for the use or the forbearance of the Obligations exceed the maximum permissible under applicable law. As used herein, the term “applicable law” shall mean the law of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts in effect as of the date hereof; provided, however, that in the event there is a change in the law which results in a higher permissible rate of interest, then the Loan Documents shall be governed by such new law as of its effective date. In this regard, it is expressly agreed that it is the intent of the Borrower and the Lenders in the execution, delivery and acceptance of the Loan Documents to contract in strict compliance with the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts from time to time in effect. If, under or from any circumstances whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision of any of the Loan Documents at the time of performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve transcending the limit of such validity prescribed by applicable law, then the obligation to be fulfilled shall automatically be reduced to the limits of such validity, and if under or from circumstances whatsoever the Lenders should ever receive as interest an amount which would exceed the highest lawful rate, such amount which would be excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance of the Obligations and not to the payment of interest. This provision shall control every other provision of all Loan Documents.

2.6 Fees.

(a) The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the benefit of the Lenders an unused line fee (the “Unused Fee”), computed on a daily basis and payable monthly in arrears on the first Business Day of each month, equal to one quarter of one percent (0.25%) per annum of the excess of (i) the Total Commitment at the time over (ii) the Total Outstandings from time to time.

(b) If the Borrower prepays the Loans in full, other than (i) with the proceeds of a financing arrangement where Sovereign is the agent or sole lender under such financing arrangement with a total commitment of no less than $20,000,000, (ii) with the proceeds of a sale permitted under Section 7.4(c) or (iii) at a time when the percentages for the advance rates set forth in clauses (i) or (ii) of the definition of “Borrowing Base” have been reduced by the Agent, then at the time of such prepayment the Borrower shall also pay to the Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, an early termination fee of (A) three percent (3%) on or prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date, (B) two percent (2%) after the first anniversary of the Closing Date and on or prior to the second anniversary of the Closing Date and (C) one percent (1%) after the second anniversary of the Closing Date and prior to the third anniversary of the Closing Date, in each case, of the Total Commitment at the time of repayment (without regard to any reductions in the

-21-

Total Commitment within six months prior to such repayment made pursuant to Section 2.1 (d)(ii)).

(c) The Borrower shall pay to the Agent, solely for the account of the Agent, such other fees as the Borrower and the Agent shall agree in writing.

(d) The Borrower authorizes Agent and the Lenders to charge to their Note Records or to any deposit account which the Borrower may maintain with any of them the interest, fees, charges, taxes and expenses provided for in this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, any other document executed or delivered in connection herewith or therewith or associated with any accounts maintained with the Lenders, including with respect to account overdrafts.

2.7 Payments and Prepayments of the Loans.

(a) On the Maturity Date or the earlier termination of all Commitments pursuant to Section 2.1(d)(ii), the Borrower shall pay in full the unpaid principal of all outstanding Revolving Credit Loans, together with all unpaid interest thereon and all fees and other amounts due with respect thereto. Overadvances shall be due and payable as provided in Section 2.1(e).

(b) Revolving Credit Loans that are LIBOR Loans may be prepaid at any time, subject to the provisions of Section 2.9, upon three (3) Business Days’ notice. Revolving Credit Loans that are Base Rate Loans may be prepaid at any time, without premium or penalty. Any such notice of prepayment shall be irrevocable. Prepayments of Revolving Credit Loans may be reborrowed to the extent provided in Section 2.1.

(c) The Agent may, in its discretion, apply any amount held by the Agent in the Collateral Account to reduce outstanding Loans. To the extent that the Agent so applies any such amount, then for purposes of calculating Total Outstandings under Section 2.1(a) hereof, credit for such amount shall be deemed to have been entered one Business Day after being received by the Agent. Such credit shall be conditional upon final payment in cash or solvent credits of the items giving rise thereto.

(d) Except as provided in Section 2.1(e), if at any time the Total Outstandings exceed the lesser of (i) the Borrowing Base and (ii) the Total Commitment, the Borrower shall immediately pay the amount of any such excess to the Agent for application to the Revolving Credit Loans.

2.8 Method and Allocation of Payments.

(a) All payments by the Borrower hereunder and under any of the other Loan Documents shall be made in lawful money of the United States in immediately available funds, and shall be deemed to have been made only when made in compliance with this Section. All such payments shall be made without set-off or counterclaim and free and clear of and without deduction for any taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions, withholdings, compulsory loans, restrictions or conditions of any nature now or hereafter imposed or levied by any jurisdiction or any political subdivision thereof or taxing or other authority therein unless the Borrower is compelled by law to make such deduction or withholding. If any such obligation is

-22-

imposed upon the Borrower with respect to any amount payable by it hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, the Borrower will pay to each Lender such additional amount in U.S. Dollars as shall be necessary to enable such Lender to receive the same net amount which such Lender would have received on such due date had no such obligation been imposed upon the Borrower. The Borrower will deliver promptly to each Lender certificates or other valid vouchers or other evidence of payment reasonably satisfactory to the Agent for all taxes or other charges deducted from or paid with respect to payments made by the Borrower hereunder or under such other Loan Document. The Lenders may, and the Borrower hereby authorizes the Lenders to, debit the amount of any payment not made by such time to the demand deposit accounts of the Borrower with the Lenders or to their Note Records.

(b) All payments of principal of and interest in respect of Loans and of Unused Fees shall be made to the Agent, for the pro rata benefit of the Lenders, in accordance with their Commitment Percentages, and payments of any other amounts due hereunder shall be made to the Agent to be allocated among the Agent and the Lenders as their respective interests appear. All such payments shall be made at the Agent’s head office or at such other location as the Agent may from time to time designate, in each case in immediately available funds.

(c) If the Commitments shall have been terminated or the Obligations shall have been declared immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 8.2, all funds received from or on behalf of the Borrower (including as proceeds of Collateral) by any Lender in respect of Obligations (except funds received by any Lender as a result of a deemed purchase of a participant interest pursuant to Section 2.8(d) below) shall be remitted to the Agent, and all such funds, together with all other funds received by the Agent from or on behalf of the Borrower (including proceeds of Collateral) in respect of Obligations, shall be applied by the Agent in the following manner and order: (i) first, to reimburse the Agent and the Lenders, in that order, for any amounts payable pursuant to Sections 11.2 and 11.3 hereof; (ii) second, to the payment of interest due on the Loans; (iii) third, to the payment of Unused Fees and any other fees payable hereunder or any other Loan Documents and; (iv) fourth, to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of the Loans, pro rata to the outstanding principal balance of each; (v) fifth, to the payment of any other Obligations payable by the Borrower, pro rata to the outstanding principal balance of each; and (vi) any remaining funds shall be paid to whoever shall be entitled thereto or as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct.

(d) Each of the Lenders and the Agent hereby agrees that if it should receive any amount (whether by voluntary payment, by realization upon security, by the exercise of the right of set-off or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action, by the enforcement of any right under the Loan Documents, or otherwise) in respect of principal of, or interest on, the Loans or any fees which are to be shared pro rata among the Lenders, which, as compared to the amounts theretofore received by the other Lenders with respect to such principal, interest or fees, is in excess of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such principal, interest or fees, such Lender shall share such excess, less the costs and expenses (including, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by such Lender in connection with such realization, exercise, claim or action, pro rata with all other Lenders in proportion to their respective Commitment Percentages, and such sharing shall be deemed a purchase (without recourse) by such sharing party of participant interests in the Loans or such fees, as the case may be, owed to the recipients of such shared payments to the extent of such shared payments; provided, however, that if all or any

-23-

portion of such excess amount is thereafter recovered from such Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

2.9 LIBOR Indemnity. If the Borrower for any reason (including, without limitation, pursuant to Sections 2.7, 2.11, 2.12 and 8.2 hereof) makes any payment of principal with respect to any LIBOR Loan on any day other than the last day of an Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Loan, or fails to borrow or continue or convert to a LIBOR Loan after giving a Notice of Borrowing or Conversion thereof pursuant to Section 2.3, or fails to prepay a LIBOR Loan after having given notice thereof, the Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the benefit of the Lenders any amount required to compensate the Lenders for any additional losses, costs or expenses which they may reasonably incur as a result of such payment or failure, including, without limitation, any loss (including loss of anticipated profits), costs or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or re-employment of deposits or other funds required by the Lenders to fund or maintain such LIBOR Loan. Without limiting the foregoing, the Borrower shall pay to the Agent a “yield maintenance fee” in an amount computed as follows: the current rate for United States Treasury securities (bills on a discounted basis shall be converted to a bond equivalent) with a maturity date closest to the expiration of the Interest Period of the Loan as to which the prepayment is made, shall be subtracted from the interest rate applicable (pursuant to Section 2.5(b)) to each LIBOR Loan in effect at the time of prepayment. If the result is zero or a negative number, there shall be no yield maintenance fee. If the result is a positive number, then the resulting percentage shall be multiplied by the amount of the principal balance being prepaid. The resulting amount shall be divided by 360 and multiplied by the number of days remaining in the Interest Period of the Loan as to which the prepayment is made. Said amount shall be reduced to present value calculated by using the above referenced United States Treasury securities rate and the number of days remaining in the Interest Period of the Loan as to which prepayment is made. The resulting amount shall be the yield maintenance fee due to the Lenders upon the payment of a LIBOR Loan under the circumstances described in the first sentence of this Section. The Borrower shall pay such amount upon presentation by the Agent of a statement setting forth the amount and the Agent’s (or the affected Lenders’) calculation thereof pursuant hereto, which statement shall be deemed true and correct absent manifest error. If the Obligations are declared immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 8.2, then any amount provided for in this Section shall be due and payable in the same manner as though the Borrower had made a prepayment of the LIBOR Loans.

2.10 Computation of Interest and Fees; Due Date.

(a) Interest and all fees payable hereunder shall be computed daily on the basis of a year of 360 days and paid for the actual number of days for which due.

(b) If the due date for any payment of principal is extended by operation of law, interest shall be payable for such extended time. If any payment required by this Agreement becomes due on a day that is not a Business Day such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day (subject to the definition of the term “Interest Period”), and such extension shall be included in computing interest and fees in connection with such payment.

2.11 Changed Circumstances; Illegality.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event that:

-24-

(i) on any date on which the LIBOR Rate would otherwise be set the Agent shall have determined in good faith (which determination shall be final and conclusive) that adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR Rate, or

(ii) at any time the Agent or any Lender shall have determined in good faith (which determination shall be final and conclusive and, if made by any Lender, shall have been communicated to the Agent in writing) that:

(A) the making or continuation of or conversion of any Loan to a LIBOR Loan has been made impracticable or unlawful by (1) the occurrence of a contingency that materially and adversely affects the interbank LIBOR market or (2) compliance by the Agent or such Lender in good faith with any applicable law or governmental regulation, guideline or order or interpretation or change thereof by any governmental authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof or with any request or directive of any such governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law); or

(B) the LIBOR Rate shall no longer represent the effective cost to the Agent or such Lender for U.S. dollar deposits in the interbank market for deposits in which it regularly participates;

then, and in any such event, the Agent shall forthwith so notify the Borrower thereof. Until the Agent notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer apply, the obligation of the Lenders to allow selection by the Borrower of the Type of Loan affected by the contingencies described in this Section (herein called “Affected Loans”) shall be suspended. If, at the time the Agent so notifies the Borrower, the Borrower has previously given the Agent a Notice of Borrowing or Conversion with respect to one or more Affected Loans but such Loans have not yet gone into effect, such notification shall be deemed to be a request for Base Rate Loans.

(b) In the event of a determination of illegality pursuant to subsection (a)(ii)(A) above, the Borrower shall, with respect to the outstanding Affected Loans, prepay the same, together with interest thereon and any amounts required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.9, on such date as shall be specified in such notice (which shall not be earlier than the date such notice is given) and may, subject to the conditions of this Agreement, borrow a Loan of another Type in accordance with Section 2.1 hereof by giving a Notice of Borrowing or Conversion pursuant to Section 2.3 hereof.

2.12 Increased Costs. In case any change made after the Closing Date in any law, regulation, treaty or official directive or the interpretation or application thereof by any court or by any governmental authority charged with the administration thereof or the compliance with any guideline or request of any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law):

(i) subjects any Lender to any tax with respect to payments of principal or interest or any other amounts payable hereunder by the Borrower or otherwise with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (except for taxes on the overall net income of such Lender imposed by the United States of America or any political subdivision thereof), or

-25-

(ii) imposes, modifies or deems applicable any deposit insurance, reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits in or for the account of, or loans by, any Lender (other than such requirements as are already included in the determination of the LIBOR Rate), or

(iii) imposes upon any Lender any other condition with respect to its obligations or performance under this Agreement,

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to the Lender, reduce the income receivable by such Lender or impose any expense upon such Lender with respect to any Loans or its obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall notify the Borrower and the Agent thereof. The Borrower agrees to pay to such Lender the amount of such increase in cost, reduction in income or additional expense as and when such cost, reduction or expense is incurred or determined, upon presentation by such Lender of a statement in the amount and setting forth in reasonable detail such Lender’s calculation thereof and the assumptions upon which such calculation was based, which statement shall be deemed true and correct absent manifest error.

2.13 Capital Requirements. If after the date hereof any Lender determines that (i) the adoption of or change in any law, rule, regulation or guideline regarding capital requirements for banks or bank holding companies, or any change in the interpretation or application thereof by any governmental authority charged with the administration thereof, or (ii) compliance by such Lender or its parent bank holding company with any guideline, request or directive of any such entity regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law), has the effect of reducing the return on such Lender’s or such holding company’s capital as a consequence of such Lender’s Commitment to make Loans hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or such holding company could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such holding company’s then existing policies with respect to capital adequacy and assuming the full utilization of such entity’s capital) by any amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then such Lender shall notify the Borrower and the Agent thereof. The Borrower agrees to pay to such Lender the amount of such reduction of return on capital as and when such reduction is determined, payable within 90 days after presentation by such Lender of a statement in the amount and setting forth in reasonable detail such Lender’s calculation thereof and the assumptions upon which such calculation was based (which statement shall be deemed true and correct absent manifest error) unless within such 90 day period the Borrower shall have prepaid in full all Obligations to such Lender, in which event no amount shall be payable to such Lender under this Section. In determining such amount, such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

(a) Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (i) is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation, (ii) has all requisite corporate power to own its property and conduct its business as now conducted and as presently contemplated and (iii) is duly qualified and in good standing as a foreign corporation and is duly authorized to do business in each jurisdiction (all of which are listed on Exhibit C attached hereto) where the nature of its properties or business requires such qualification, except where the failure to be so qualified would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) Since the date of the Initial Financial Statements, the Borrower has continued to engage in substantially the same business as that in which it was then engaged and is engaged in no unrelated business.

4.2 Corporate Authority; No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby are within the corporate power and authority of the Borrower and have been authorized by all necessary corporate proceedings, and do not and will not (a) contravene any provision of the charter documents or by-laws of the Borrower or any law, rule or regulation applicable to the Borrower, (b) contravene any provision of, or constitute an event of default or event that, but for the requirement that time elapse or notice be given, or both, would constitute an event of default under, any other agreement, instrument, order or undertaking binding on the Borrower, or (c) result in or require the imposition of any Encumbrance on any of the properties, assets or rights of the Borrower, except in favor of the Agent and the Lenders.

-29-

4.3 Valid Obligations. The Loan Documents and all of their respective terms and provisions are the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Borrower, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms except as limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and except as the remedy of specific performance or of injunctive relief is subject to the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be brought. The Security Documents have effectively created in favor of the Agent and the Lenders legal, valid and enforceable security interests in the Collateral and such security interests are fully perfected first priority security interests.

(a) The Borrower has furnished to the Lenders the Parent’s consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2006 and its consolidated statements of income, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flow for the fiscal year then ended, and related footnotes, audited and certified without qualification by the Parent’s Accountants.

The Borrower has also furnished to the Lenders the Parent’s pro forma consolidated balance sheet as of the Closing Date and

-30-

projections of its future consolidated results of operations, all of which were reasonable when made and continue to be reasonable at the date hereof.

4.7 Changes. Since the date of the most recent financial statements delivered to the Agent pursuant to Sections 4.6(a) or 5.1, there have been no changes in the operations, business, properties, liabilities (actual or contingent) or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, other than changes in the ordinary course of business, the effect of which has not, in the aggregate, caused a Material Adverse Effect.

4.8 Solvency.

All such contests at the date hereof are described on Exhibit C hereto. The Parent and its Subsidiaries have not executed any waiver that would have the effect of extending the applicable statute of limitations in respect of tax liabilities. The federal and state income tax returns of the Parent and each Subsidiary have not been audited or otherwise examined by any federal or state taxing authority. The Parent and each Subsidiary have established on their books reserves adequate for the payment of all federal, state and other tax liabilities.

4.11 Litigation. There is no litigation, arbitration, proceeding or investigation pending, or, to the knowledge of the Borrower’s or any Subsidiary’s officers, threatened, against the Parent, the Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries that, if adversely determined, may reasonably be expected to result in a material judgment not fully covered by insurance, may reasonably be expected to result in a forfeiture of all or any substantial part of the property of the Parent, the Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries, or may reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

4.12 Subsidiaries. All the Subsidiaries of the Borrower are listed on Exhibit C hereto, with any Special Purpose Subsidiaries being separately designated as such. The Borrower or a

The Borrower and each Subsidiary are duly authorized, qualified and licensed under, and the Borrower, each Subsidiary and all real properties owned or leased by them are in compliance with, all applicable laws, regulations, authorizations and orders of public authorities, including, without limitation, Environmental Laws, except to the extent that any such failure to be so authorized, qualified, licensed or in compliance would not have a Material Adverse Effect. The Borrower and each Subsidiary have performed all obligations required to be performed by it under, and is not in default under or in violation of, its Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws, or any agreement, lease, mortgage, note, bond, indenture, license or other instrument or undertaking to which it is a party or by which any of it or any of its properties are bound, except for violations none of which, either individually or in the aggregate, would have any Material Adverse Effect.

The Parent and each of its ERISA Affiliates are in compliance in all material respects with ERISA and the provisions of the Code applicable to the Plans; neither the Parent nor any of its ERISA Affiliates have engaged in a Prohibited Transaction which would subject the Parent, any of its ERISA Affiliates or any Plan to a material tax or penalty imposed on a Prohibited Transaction; no Plan has incurred any “accumulated funding deficiency” (as defined in ERISA); except as set forth in the Initial Financial Statements, the aggregate fair market value of all assets of the Plans which are single-employer plans is at least equal to the aggregate present value of all accrued benefits under such Plans, both as determined in the most recent actuarial reports for such Plans using the actuarial assumptions used for funding purposes therein; neither the Parent nor any of its ERISA Affiliates has incurred any liability to the PBGC over and above premiums required by law; and neither the Parent nor any of its ERISA Affiliates has terminated any Plan in a manner which could result in the imposition of a lien on the property of the Parent, the Borrower or any of their ERISA Affiliates.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or of any of the terms and provisions of any of the Security Documents, if and when the Agent exercises remedies under the Security Documents with respect to Collateral, the Agent may, in its sole discretion, determine which items and types of Collateral to dispose of and in what order and may dispose of Collateral in any order the Agent shall select in its sole discretion, and the Borrower consents to the foregoing and waives all rights of marshalling with respect to all Collateral.

-48-

SECTION IX

ASSIGNMENT AND PARTICIPATION

9.1 Assignment.

(a) Each Lender shall have the right to assign at any time any portion of its Commitment hereunder and its interests in the risk relating to any Loans in an amount equal to or greater than $5,000,000 to other Lenders or to banks or financial institutions reasonably acceptable to the Agent (each an “Assignee”) and to furnish from time to time to prospective Assignees copies of the Loan Documents and any information concerning the Borrower in its possession, provided that any Lender which proposes to assign less than its total Commitment must retain a Commitment of at least $5,000,000, and provided, further, that if no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Assignee which is not a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or a Federal Reserve Bank shall be subject to prior approval by the Borrower (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Each Assignee shall execute and deliver to the Agent and the Borrower a counterpart joinder in the form of Exhibit E hereto and shall pay to the Agent, solely for the account of the Agent, an assignment fee of $3,500. Upon the execution and delivery of such counterpart joinder, (a) such Assignee shall, on the date and to the extent provided in such counterpart joinder, become a “Lender” party to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and shall have all rights and obligations of a “Lender” with a Commitment as set forth in such counterpart joinder, and the transferor Lender shall, on the date and to the extent provided in such counterpart joinder, be released prospectively from its obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to a corresponding extent (and, in the case of an assignment covering all of the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such transferor shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 11.3 and to any fees accrued for its account hereunder and not yet paid); (b) the assigning Lender, if it holds any Notes, shall promptly surrender such Notes to the Agent for cancellation and delivery to the Borrower, provided that if the assigning Lender has retained any Commitment, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Agent for delivery to such assigning Lender a new Note in the amount of the assigning Lender’s retained Commitment; (c) the Borrower shall issue to such Assignee a Note in the amount of such Assignee’s Commitment dated the Closing Date or such other date as may be specified by such Assignee and otherwise completed in substantially the form of Exhibit A; (d) this Agreement shall be deemed appropriately amended to reflect (i) the status of such Assignee as a party hereto and (ii) the status and rights of the Lender hereunder; and (e) the Borrower shall take such action as the Agent may reasonably request to perfect any security interests or mortgages in favor of the Lenders, including any Assignee which becomes a party to this Agreement.

(b) If the Assignee, or any Participant pursuant to Section 9.2 hereof, is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction other than the United States or any state thereof, such Assignee shall execute and deliver to the Borrower, simultaneously with or prior to such Assignee’s execution and delivery of the counterpart joinder described above in Section 9.1(a), and such Participant shall execute and deliver to the Lender granting the participation, a United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI or W-8BEN (or any successor form), appropriately completed, wherein such Assignee or Participant claims entitlement to complete exemption from United States Federal Withholding Tax on all interest payments hereunder and

-49-

all fees payable pursuant to any of the Loan Documents. The Borrower shall not be required to pay any increased amount to any Assignee or other Lender on account of taxes to the extent such taxes would not have been payable if the Assignee or Participant had furnished one of the Forms referenced in this Section 9.1(b) unless the failure to furnish such a Form results from (i) a condition or event affecting the Borrower or an act or failure to act of the Borrower or (ii) the adoption of or change in any law, rule, regulation or guideline affecting such Assignee or Participant occurring (x) after the date on which any such Assignee executes and delivers the counterpart joinder, or (y) after the date such Assignee shall otherwise comply with the provisions of Section 9.1(a), or (z) after the date a Participant is granted its participation.

(c) Any Lender may at any time pledge all or any portion of its rights under the Loan Documents, including any portion of any Note, to any of the twelve (12) Federal Reserve Banks organized under Section 4 of the Federal Reserve Act, 12 U.S.C. Section 341. No such pledge or any enforcement thereof shall release such Lender from its obligations under any of the Loan Documents.

9.2 Participations. Each Lender shall have the right at any time and from time to time, without the consent of or notice to the Borrower, to grant participations to one or more banks or other financial institutions (each a “Participant”) in all or any part of any Loans owing to such Lender and the Note held by such Lender, and shall have the right to furnish from time to time to prospective Participants copies of the Loan Documents and any information concerning the Borrower in its possession. Each Lender shall retain the sole right to approve, without the consent of any Participant, any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents, provided that the documents evidencing any such participation may provide that, except with the consent of such Participant, such Lender will not consent to (a) the reduction in or forgiveness of the stated principal of or rate of interest on or Unused Fee with respect to the portion of any Loan subject to such participation, (b) the extension or postponement of any stated date fixed for payment of principal or interest or Unused Fee with respect to the portion of any Loan subject to such participation, (c) the waiver or reduction of any right to indemnification of such Lender hereunder, or (d) except as otherwise permitted or required hereunder, the release of any Collateral. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no participation shall operate to increase the Total Commitment hereunder or otherwise alter the substantive terms of this Agreement. In the event of any such sale by a Lender of participating interests to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance thereof, such Lender shall remain the holder of such Note for all purposes under this Agreement and the Borrower and Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.

SECTION X

THE AGENT

10.1 Appointment of Agent; Powers and Immunities.

(a) Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Agent to act as its agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and to execute the Loan Documents (other than this Agreement) and all other instruments relating thereto. Each Lender irrevocably

-50-

authorizes the Agent to take such action on behalf of each of the Lenders and to exercise all such powers as are expressly delegated to the Agent hereunder and in the other Loan Documents and all related documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The obligations of the Agent hereunder are only those expressly set forth herein. The Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender except those expressly set forth in this Agreement.

(b) Neither the Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall be responsible for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them hereunder or in connection herewith, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, neither the Agent nor any of its Affiliates shall be responsible to the Lenders for or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into or verify: (i) any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any other Person whether contained herein or otherwise; (ii) the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other document referred to or provided for herein or therein; (iii) any failure by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any other Person to perform its obligations under any of the Loan Documents; (iv) the satisfaction of any conditions specified in Section 3 hereof, other than receipt of the documents, certificates and opinions specified in Section 3.1(a) hereof; (v) the existence, value, collectibility or adequacy of the Collateral or any part thereof or the validity, effectiveness, perfection or relative priority of the liens and security interests of the Lenders therein; or (vi) the filing, recording, refiling, continuing or re-recording of any financing statement or other document or instrument evidencing or relating to the security interests or liens of the Agent in the Collateral.

(c) The Agent may employ agents, attorneys and other experts, shall not be responsible to any Lender for the negligence or misconduct of any such agents, attorneys or experts selected by it with reasonable care and shall not be liable to any Lender for any action taken, omitted to be taken or suffered in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such agents, attorneys and other experts. Sovereign, in its separate capacity as a Lender shall have the same rights and powers under the Loan Documents as any other Lender and may exercise or refrain from exercising the same as though it were not the Agent, and Sovereign and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower as if it were not the Agent.

10.2 Actions by Agent.

(a) The Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement as it reasonably deems appropriate unless it shall first have received such advice or concurrence of the Lenders and shall be indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Lenders, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon the Lenders and all future holders of the Notes.

(b) Whether or not an Event of Default shall have occurred, the Agent may from time to time exercise such rights of the Agent and the Lenders under the Loan Documents

-51-

as it determines may be necessary or desirable to protect the Collateral and the interests of the Agent and the Lenders therein and under the Loan Documents. In addition, the Agent may, without the consent of the Lenders, if no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, release Collateral valued by the Agent, in its sole discretion, of not more than $500,000 in any fiscal year.

(c) Neither the Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall incur any liability by acting in reliance on any notice, consent, certificate, statement or other writing (which may be a bank wire, telex, facsimile or similar writing) believed by any of them to be genuine or to be signed by the proper party or parties.

(d) Agent may, and the Borrower hereby authorizes the Agent to, include references to the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, and utilize any logo or other distinctive symbol associated with the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (subject to the Borrower’s prior review and written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) in connection with any advertising, promotion or marketing undertaken by the Agent.

10.3 Indemnification by Lenders. Without limiting the obligations of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document, the Lenders agree to indemnify the Agent, ratably in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages, for any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the enforcement of any of the terms hereof or thereof or of any such other documents; provided that no Lender shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent they result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Agent.

10.4 Reimbursement. Without limiting the provisions of Section 10.3, the Lenders and the Agent hereby agree that the Agent shall not be obliged to make available to any Person any sum which the Agent is expecting to receive for the account of that Person until the Agent has determined that it has received that sum. The Agent may, however, disburse funds prior to determining that the sums which the Agent expects to receive have been finally and unconditionally paid to the Agent if the Agent wishes to do so. If and to the extent that the Agent does disburse funds and it later becomes apparent that the Agent did not then receive a payment in an amount equal to the sum paid out, then any Person to whom the Agent made the funds available shall, on demand from the Agent refund to the Agent the sum paid to that Person. If the Agent in good faith reasonably concludes that the distribution of any amount received by it in such capacity hereunder or under the other Loan Documents might involve it in liability, it may refrain from making distribution until its right to make distribution shall have been adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction. If a court of competent jurisdiction shall adjudge that any amount received and distributed by the Agent is to be repaid, each Person to whom any such distribution shall have been made shall either repay to the Agent its proportionate share of the amount so adjudged to be repaid or shall pay over the same in such manner and to such Persons as shall be determined by such court.

10.5 Agency Provisions Relating to Collateral. Each Lender authorizes and ratifies the Agent’s entry into the Security Documents for the benefit of the Lenders. Each Lender agrees

-52-

that any action taken by the Agent with respect to the Collateral in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or the Security Documents, and the exercise by the Agent of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all Lenders. The Agent is hereby authorized on behalf of all Lenders, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Lender, to take any action with respect to any Collateral or the Loan Documents which may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected the Agent’s Encumbrances upon the Collateral, for its benefit and the ratable benefit of the Lenders. The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Encumbrance granted to or held by the Agent upon any Collateral (i) upon termination of all Commitments and payment and satisfaction of all Obligations, (ii) in connection with any foreclosure sale or other disposition of Collateral after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Agent at the direction of the Lenders or (iv) as otherwise provided in the other Loan Documents. Upon request by the Agent at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant hereto. The Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any Lender or to any other Person to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by the Borrower or is cared for, protected or insured or has been encumbered or that the Encumbrances granted to the Agent pursuant to the Security Documents have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of its rights, authorities and powers granted or available to the Agent in this Section 10.5 or in any of the Loan Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, the Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion, but consistent with the provisions of this Agreement, including given the Agent’s own interest in the Collateral as a Lender and that the Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to any Lender.

10.6 Non-Reliance on Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender represents that it has, independently and without reliance on the Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of the financial condition and affairs of the Borrower and decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and agrees that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own appraisals and decision in taking or not taking action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document. The Agent shall not be required to keep informed as to the performance or observance by the Borrower of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other document referred to or provided for herein or therein or by any other Person of any other agreement or to make inquiry of, or to inspect the properties or books of, any Person. Except for notices, reports and other documents and information expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Agent hereunder, the Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning any Person which may come into the possession of the Agent or any of its affiliates. Each Lender shall have access to all documents relating to the Agent’s performance of its duties hereunder at such Lender’s request. Unless any Lender shall promptly object to any action taken by the Agent hereunder (other than actions to which the provisions of Section 11.7(b) are applicable and other than actions which constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct by the Agent), such Lender shall conclusively be presumed to have approved the same.

-53-

10.7 Resignation of Agent. The Agent may resign at any time by giving 30 days prior written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent which shall be reasonably acceptable to the Borrower and shall be a financial institution having a combined capital and surplus in excess of $150,000,000. If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent which shall be reasonably acceptable to the Borrower and shall be a financial institution having a combined capital and surplus in excess of $150,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. After any retiring Agent’s resignation, the provisions of this Agreement shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Agent.

The Borrower further promises to reimburse the Agent (and after the occurrence and during the continuation of a Default, the Lenders) for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred or expended in connection with the enforcement of any Obligations, the exercise, preservation or enforcement of any rights, remedies or options of the Agent or the Lenders or the satisfaction of any Obligations, or in connection with any litigation, proceeding or dispute in any way related to the credit hereunder, including, without limitation, fees and disbursements of outside legal counsel and the allocated costs of in-house legal counsel, accounting, consulting, brokerage or other similar professional fees or expenses; any fees, charges (including the Agent’s per diem charges) or expenses relating to any inspections, appraisals or examinations conducted in connection with the Loans or any Collateral; and all costs and expenses relating to any attempt to inspect, verify, protect, preserve, restore, collect, sell, liquidate or otherwise dispose of or realize upon any Collateral. The amount of all such costs and expenses shall, until paid, bear interest at the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans and shall be an Obligation secured by the Collateral.

11.3 Indemnification by Borrower. The Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Agent and the Lenders, as well as their respective shareholders, directors, officers, agents, attorneys, subsidiaries and affiliates, from and against all damages, losses, settlement payments, obligations, liabilities, claims, suits, penalties, assessments, citations, directives, demands, judgments, actions or causes of action, whether statutorily created or under the common law, all reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and disbursements of attorneys, engineers and consultants) and all other liabilities whatsoever (including, without limitation, liabilities under Environmental Laws) which shall at any time or times be incurred, suffered, sustained or required to be paid by any such indemnified Person (except any of the foregoing which result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the

-55-

indemnified Person) on account of or in relation to or any way in connection with any of the arrangements or transactions contemplated by, associated with or ancillary to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other documents executed or delivered in connection herewith or therewith, all as the same may be amended from time to time, whether or not all or part of the transactions contemplated by, associated with or ancillary to this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any such other documents are ultimately consummated. In any investigation, proceeding or litigation, or the preparation therefor, the Lenders shall select their own counsel and, in addition to the foregoing indemnity, the Borrower agrees to pay promptly the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. In the event of the commencement of any such proceeding or litigation, the Borrower shall be entitled to participate in such proceeding or litigation with counsel of its choice at its own expense, provided that such counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Agent (the Agent agrees that Edwards Angell Palmer & Dodge LLP shall be satisfactory to the Agent). The Borrower authorizes the Agent and the Lenders to charge any deposit account or Note Record which they may maintain with any of them for any of the foregoing. The covenants of this Section 11.3 shall survive payment or satisfaction of payment of all amounts owing with respect to the Notes, any other Loan Document or any other Obligation.

11.4 Survival of Covenants, Etc. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made herein, in the other Loan Documents or in any documents or other papers delivered by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant hereto or thereto shall be deemed to have been relied upon by the Agent and the Lenders, notwithstanding any investigation heretofore or hereafter made by any of them, and shall survive the making by the Lenders of the Loans as herein contemplated and the termination of all Commitments, and shall continue in full force and effect so long as any Obligation remains outstanding and unpaid or any Lender has any obligation to make any Loans hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of Sections 11.2 and 11.3 shall continue in full force and effect after the payment in full of all Obligations. All statements contained in any certificate or other writing delivered by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant hereto or the other Loan Documents or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby shall constitute representations and warranties by the Borrower hereunder.

11.5 Set-Off. Regardless of the adequacy of any Collateral or other means of obtaining repayment of the Obligations, any deposits, balances or other sums credited by or due from the head office of any Lender or any of its branch offices to the Borrower and any property of any of the Borrower now or hereafter in the possession, custody, safekeeping or control of any Lender or in transit to any Lender may, at any time and from time to time, without notice to the Borrower or compliance with any other condition precedent now or hereafter imposed by statute, rule of law, or otherwise (all of which are hereby expressly waived) be set off, appropriated and applied by such Lender against any and all Obligations of the Borrower in such manner as the head office of such Lender or any of its branch offices in its sole discretion may determine, and the Borrower hereby grants each such Lender a continuing security interest in such deposits, balances, other sums and property for the payment and performance of all such Obligations. ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO REQUIRE ANY LENDER TO EXERCISE ITS RIGHTS OR REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO ANY OTHER COLLATERAL WHICH SECURES THE OBLIGATIONS, PRIOR TO EXERCISING ITS RIGHTS OF SETOFF WITH RESPECT TO SUCH DEPOSITS, BALANCES, OTHER SUMS AND PROPERTY OF THE BORROWER

-56-

ARE HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVED. Each Lender will provide prompt notice to the Borrower of any setoff hereunder.

11.6 No Waivers. No failure or delay by the Agent or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder, under the Notes or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. No waiver shall extend to or affect any Obligation not expressly waived or impair any right consequent thereon. No course of dealing or omission on the part of the Agent or the Lenders in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise be prejudicial thereto. No notice to or demand upon the Borrower shall entitle the Borrower to other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. The rights and remedies herein and in the Notes and the other Loan Documents are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies otherwise provided by agreement or law.
